WEBVTT

1
00:00:00.080 --> 00:00:03.560
<v Speaker 1>There we go, all right eight eight eight nine three

2
00:00:03.720 --> 00:00:07.719
<v Speaker 1>four seven eight seven four. That'll that'll get you on

3
00:00:07.759 --> 00:00:12.640
<v Speaker 1>the Old Show today. And we have an interesting show

4
00:00:13.439 --> 00:00:17.280
<v Speaker 1>in for a couple of reasons, not the least of which,

5
00:00:17.920 --> 00:00:23.160
<v Speaker 1>what is this thing doing? Okay, all right, there you go,

6
00:00:23.920 --> 00:00:28.280
<v Speaker 1>may it happen? Make it? So here we go, all right.

7
00:00:29.039 --> 00:00:32.119
<v Speaker 1>Not the least of which is, you know, just you know,

8
00:00:32.159 --> 00:00:35.560
<v Speaker 1>the general insanity of the you know, of the day

9
00:00:35.679 --> 00:00:39.479
<v Speaker 1>with all the news stories. But Florida decided to kind

10
00:00:39.479 --> 00:00:42.479
<v Speaker 1>of put their finger on the scale and it's it's

11
00:00:42.520 --> 00:00:46.759
<v Speaker 1>pretty horrific. Well it's horrific, and then there's a sad

12
00:00:46.840 --> 00:00:50.399
<v Speaker 1>story and they're going to be overrepresented today and there's

13
00:00:50.439 --> 00:00:54.039
<v Speaker 1>nothing I can do about it, but that's how they roll. Also,

14
00:00:54.119 --> 00:00:57.560
<v Speaker 1>we'll talk about something I'm sure many of you are

15
00:00:57.600 --> 00:01:02.079
<v Speaker 1>participating in the week and probably for the next few weeks,

16
00:01:02.640 --> 00:01:08.439
<v Speaker 1>sports betting. And it's not going anywhere. But obviously, and

17
00:01:08.480 --> 00:01:10.840
<v Speaker 1>I know some of you are probably opposed to gambling,

18
00:01:10.920 --> 00:01:14.799
<v Speaker 1>or you don't gamble, or maybe you love to gamble,

19
00:01:14.879 --> 00:01:17.439
<v Speaker 1>so like it's going to run the gamut. I understand that,

20
00:01:17.599 --> 00:01:20.319
<v Speaker 1>but I think the thing that you have to accept

21
00:01:20.439 --> 00:01:24.359
<v Speaker 1>is it's probably not going anywhere for a couple reasons. One,

22
00:01:26.200 --> 00:01:29.200
<v Speaker 1>you know people, you got companies with infrastructure, people have

23
00:01:29.319 --> 00:01:32.079
<v Speaker 1>moved all in. But two, you know governments getting a

24
00:01:32.120 --> 00:01:36.400
<v Speaker 1>taste of that. So that being said, they are trying

25
00:01:36.400 --> 00:01:40.840
<v Speaker 1>to iron some issues out. And one of those you

26
00:01:41.280 --> 00:01:44.760
<v Speaker 1>might have seen these. They're a series of ads at

27
00:01:44.760 --> 00:01:47.840
<v Speaker 1>the NCAA's running right now and as part of an

28
00:01:47.879 --> 00:01:53.239
<v Speaker 1>anti bullying campaign. If you watched any of the games

29
00:01:53.280 --> 00:01:57.159
<v Speaker 1>the other day, you probably saw the thirty second spot

30
00:01:57.200 --> 00:02:02.400
<v Speaker 1>they're running. But it's not what you think. So it's

31
00:02:02.439 --> 00:02:04.680
<v Speaker 1>called it's I think it's called don't be a Loser.

32
00:02:04.920 --> 00:02:07.480
<v Speaker 1>All right, Well that's pretty catchy. Let's find nobody wants

33
00:02:07.519 --> 00:02:12.800
<v Speaker 1>to be a loser, and it's it's to teach people

34
00:02:12.919 --> 00:02:19.680
<v Speaker 1>not to bully the players. Over sports gambling, I guess

35
00:02:19.960 --> 00:02:23.199
<v Speaker 1>you have a bet and then the guy's like he's

36
00:02:23.280 --> 00:02:25.879
<v Speaker 1>not covering, and then you're screaming you're a loser. I

37
00:02:25.919 --> 00:02:30.719
<v Speaker 1>have a question on this though. So let's say let's

38
00:02:30.719 --> 00:02:32.639
<v Speaker 1>say you had to u n C. Right, all right,

39
00:02:32.639 --> 00:02:36.879
<v Speaker 1>you took UNC and I don't remember what the the

40
00:02:36.919 --> 00:02:39.000
<v Speaker 1>first half over under is, but let's say the first

41
00:02:39.000 --> 00:02:41.560
<v Speaker 1>half over under is forty forty or forty five whatever,

42
00:02:41.879 --> 00:02:43.719
<v Speaker 1>And that just means you have to decide if you're

43
00:02:43.719 --> 00:02:46.159
<v Speaker 1>gonna score more than forty points or less, and then

44
00:02:46.159 --> 00:02:48.039
<v Speaker 1>you bet accordingly. All right, that would be it. That

45
00:02:48.039 --> 00:02:50.479
<v Speaker 1>would be an over under bet on a number there,

46
00:02:50.960 --> 00:02:54.120
<v Speaker 1>and they're you you take the over, and they're dragging

47
00:02:54.159 --> 00:02:54.879
<v Speaker 1>ass right.

48
00:02:55.400 --> 00:02:56.520
<v Speaker 2>They're not hitting free.

49
00:02:56.280 --> 00:03:01.000
<v Speaker 1>Throws, they're they're they're they're they're shooting either three point

50
00:03:01.039 --> 00:03:04.080
<v Speaker 1>shootings off whatever. And now you're getting upset because you're

51
00:03:04.120 --> 00:03:06.879
<v Speaker 1>gonna lose your bet. I guess you can't yell at

52
00:03:06.919 --> 00:03:11.240
<v Speaker 1>them you suck or something. I don't know. And I

53
00:03:11.280 --> 00:03:15.919
<v Speaker 1>guess my question would be, dude, does the NCAA people

54
00:03:16.159 --> 00:03:20.439
<v Speaker 1>do they think that, like the crowd started screaming ignorant

55
00:03:20.439 --> 00:03:24.919
<v Speaker 1>crap at players when sports betting started officially, do you

56
00:03:24.960 --> 00:03:27.719
<v Speaker 1>think that just like there are people that go to

57
00:03:27.759 --> 00:03:32.599
<v Speaker 1>sporting events just to chirp, chirp the players, man, And

58
00:03:32.639 --> 00:03:35.319
<v Speaker 1>it could be really funny. Actually, there's some there's some guys.

59
00:03:35.319 --> 00:03:39.800
<v Speaker 1>There's some guys who have whole YouTube channels just dedicated

60
00:03:39.840 --> 00:03:43.960
<v Speaker 1>to them chirping baseball players. Right, there's a dude who

61
00:03:44.000 --> 00:03:47.080
<v Speaker 1>sits on the and I can't remember which team it is, is

62
00:03:47.120 --> 00:03:50.400
<v Speaker 1>it Royals might be the Royals, one of the Midwest teams,

63
00:03:50.759 --> 00:03:56.560
<v Speaker 1>and like he's got season tickets, like overlooking the visiting

64
00:03:56.599 --> 00:03:59.759
<v Speaker 1>team's bullpen, and all he does is chirp these dudes.

65
00:04:00.759 --> 00:04:03.080
<v Speaker 1>And he's really any but he's funny. I mean he's not.

66
00:04:03.879 --> 00:04:05.599
<v Speaker 1>He's not like I'm gonna murder your mom. Like he

67
00:04:06.120 --> 00:04:08.439
<v Speaker 1>puts some thought into it, but like it's part of

68
00:04:08.479 --> 00:04:12.599
<v Speaker 1>the game. So like to some ex like I understand

69
00:04:12.639 --> 00:04:15.000
<v Speaker 1>some of it. You don't want fist fights with people

70
00:04:15.039 --> 00:04:16.920
<v Speaker 1>out there, you don't want people getting real personal. But

71
00:04:17.600 --> 00:04:20.680
<v Speaker 1>you didn't need to have a hundrow on the game

72
00:04:20.800 --> 00:04:23.600
<v Speaker 1>for somebody to want to scream at some players that

73
00:04:23.680 --> 00:04:29.240
<v Speaker 1>they suck. That's just sports man. And I ask some

74
00:04:29.279 --> 00:04:31.199
<v Speaker 1>of you're like, well, doesn't have a place in sports,

75
00:04:31.279 --> 00:04:34.800
<v Speaker 1>not very sporting. Well okay, fine, then don't do it.

76
00:04:36.399 --> 00:04:40.839
<v Speaker 1>But like that's a thing. And I can't imagine sports

77
00:04:40.879 --> 00:04:45.000
<v Speaker 1>without that being a thing. Can you imagine your team's

78
00:04:45.000 --> 00:04:48.360
<v Speaker 1>playing I don't know, the Patriots. And you can't spend

79
00:04:48.399 --> 00:04:50.639
<v Speaker 1>the whole time reminding him about that one time that

80
00:04:50.720 --> 00:04:53.519
<v Speaker 1>they film somebody else's practice and you know, to cheat

81
00:04:54.480 --> 00:04:57.879
<v Speaker 1>hell no, or to flightgate or whatever or stuff you

82
00:04:58.000 --> 00:05:02.519
<v Speaker 1>just made up. That's sports man. Do you even do

83
00:05:02.560 --> 00:05:04.439
<v Speaker 1>you even want to know the stuff that me and

84
00:05:04.439 --> 00:05:07.319
<v Speaker 1>my buddy screamed at the Packers when they'd come to

85
00:05:07.319 --> 00:05:11.759
<v Speaker 1>the Metrodome every year. I really couldn't participate as much

86
00:05:11.800 --> 00:05:13.839
<v Speaker 1>because I was working for a lot of those years.

87
00:05:13.879 --> 00:05:15.680
<v Speaker 1>So you know, they really don't want you doing that

88
00:05:15.680 --> 00:05:19.279
<v Speaker 1>with a press credential. But but uh dude, my uh

89
00:05:19.920 --> 00:05:23.800
<v Speaker 1>my guys were They were mean as hell, and then

90
00:05:24.279 --> 00:05:29.639
<v Speaker 1>the Packer players would then taunt you. But nobody hated

91
00:05:29.680 --> 00:05:32.319
<v Speaker 1>each other. Well I don't know, I didn't. Maybe they did,

92
00:05:32.319 --> 00:05:37.319
<v Speaker 1>but and then everyone go about their business. Man, So

93
00:05:37.879 --> 00:05:41.240
<v Speaker 1>I don't know, Maybe I feel like you have other

94
00:05:41.279 --> 00:05:44.399
<v Speaker 1>stuff to work on, like how can a quarterback play

95
00:05:44.399 --> 00:05:49.360
<v Speaker 1>for five different college football teams? What's it? Why is

96
00:05:49.399 --> 00:05:54.480
<v Speaker 1>the transfer proto the transfer portal ruining college sports? Maybe

97
00:05:54.720 --> 00:05:59.399
<v Speaker 1>I don't know, turn your attention to that. But uh AnyWho,

98
00:05:59.519 --> 00:06:01.680
<v Speaker 1>Sorry a little rant there because I'm just like, I

99
00:06:01.720 --> 00:06:03.600
<v Speaker 1>just don't like being lectured too when I'm trying to

100
00:06:03.639 --> 00:06:07.040
<v Speaker 1>sample your your product there. And if I want to tell,

101
00:06:07.519 --> 00:06:08.959
<v Speaker 1>if I if I go to a if I go

102
00:06:09.000 --> 00:06:11.800
<v Speaker 1>to a game, and I you know, whether I'm motivated

103
00:06:11.839 --> 00:06:16.279
<v Speaker 1>by alumni. I'm alumni of the school, which I'm not

104
00:06:16.439 --> 00:06:19.839
<v Speaker 1>any of the schools that are in there, or I

105
00:06:19.920 --> 00:06:22.639
<v Speaker 1>got it. You know, I got a Benjamin riding on

106
00:06:22.680 --> 00:06:24.519
<v Speaker 1>the game. If if I want to scream at the

107
00:06:24.560 --> 00:06:27.040
<v Speaker 1>opposing players, and I'm not you know, I'm not screaming

108
00:06:27.120 --> 00:06:30.560
<v Speaker 1>like racial stuff or I'm gonna murder your family stuff

109
00:06:30.600 --> 00:06:35.079
<v Speaker 1>like that, but you suck in a creative way, I'll

110
00:06:35.160 --> 00:06:38.839
<v Speaker 1>do that, and I think everyone's a big enough boy

111
00:06:38.879 --> 00:06:42.079
<v Speaker 1>and girl to do it and understand it. And honestly,

112
00:06:42.759 --> 00:06:49.120
<v Speaker 1>most of the players don't care. Don't care. That's just

113
00:06:49.160 --> 00:06:51.720
<v Speaker 1>because they're big boys and girls. They're professionals, even at

114
00:06:51.759 --> 00:06:54.639
<v Speaker 1>the college level, they're basically professionals, and as long as

115
00:06:54.680 --> 00:06:59.959
<v Speaker 1>you're not getting personal with it, they don't care. All right,

116
00:07:00.079 --> 00:07:03.120
<v Speaker 1>eight eight eight nine three four seven eight seven four

117
00:07:03.800 --> 00:07:07.639
<v Speaker 1>the phone number there? All right? Coming up? The latest Doge.

118
00:07:08.240 --> 00:07:10.480
<v Speaker 1>This is insane, the latest DOGE. I don't want to

119
00:07:10.480 --> 00:07:12.639
<v Speaker 1>say victim. I see them using that in the U

120
00:07:13.319 --> 00:07:15.160
<v Speaker 1>in some of the reporting, because they're not. They're not

121
00:07:15.279 --> 00:07:19.759
<v Speaker 1>victims of DOGE. Well, I mean, if anything, were the victims, right,

122
00:07:20.079 --> 00:07:24.360
<v Speaker 1>So the latest project, I'll call them the Federal Mediation

123
00:07:24.720 --> 00:07:30.120
<v Speaker 1>and con concil conciliation service, which is not a thing

124
00:07:30.199 --> 00:07:32.079
<v Speaker 1>I even knew existed, And if you want to know

125
00:07:32.120 --> 00:07:33.800
<v Speaker 1>what it does, I had to look it up. I'll

126
00:07:33.800 --> 00:07:37.199
<v Speaker 1>explain it to you. But let's just say they were

127
00:07:37.240 --> 00:07:39.879
<v Speaker 1>living their best life, and by their best life, I

128
00:07:39.879 --> 00:07:44.279
<v Speaker 1>mean literally worst case scenario for your tax dollars. Plus

129
00:07:44.720 --> 00:07:48.360
<v Speaker 1>we have a rather interesting protest coming up, so we'll

130
00:07:48.360 --> 00:07:50.680
<v Speaker 1>get into all this and more here on the CaCO

131
00:07:50.800 --> 00:07:53.680
<v Speaker 1>Day Radio program. Ross. Do you still have a DVD

132
00:07:53.800 --> 00:07:57.639
<v Speaker 1>collection at your house? Do you have like a I mean,

133
00:07:57.680 --> 00:08:01.439
<v Speaker 1>I'm trying to remember all my DVDs and Blu rays

134
00:08:01.600 --> 00:08:03.040
<v Speaker 1>are like a box or something.

135
00:08:03.120 --> 00:08:04.399
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I have a bunch of them in a crawl

136
00:08:04.480 --> 00:08:07.399
<v Speaker 2>space in the attic. Okay, but we do have somehowt

137
00:08:07.480 --> 00:08:09.800
<v Speaker 2>Lincoln likes the boxes like to look at him and

138
00:08:09.839 --> 00:08:11.680
<v Speaker 2>he just likes to touch him and like see the

139
00:08:11.680 --> 00:08:13.600
<v Speaker 2>pictures and stuff. So yeah, but no, we don't actually

140
00:08:13.639 --> 00:08:14.839
<v Speaker 2>watch DVDs though.

141
00:08:15.120 --> 00:08:17.720
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, you know because a lot of people,

142
00:08:17.800 --> 00:08:20.680
<v Speaker 1>a lot of people don't like all digital because they

143
00:08:20.720 --> 00:08:23.480
<v Speaker 1>want tangible media. And like, I totally understand that because

144
00:08:24.079 --> 00:08:27.519
<v Speaker 1>I'm trying to think on my Apple TV, I probably

145
00:08:27.680 --> 00:08:31.040
<v Speaker 1>have three hundred movies that I've just you know, I

146
00:08:31.160 --> 00:08:35.480
<v Speaker 1>bought over the years, just chilling there, and I guess

147
00:08:35.519 --> 00:08:38.480
<v Speaker 1>if Apple ceased to exist, I don't have those anymore.

148
00:08:39.360 --> 00:08:45.480
<v Speaker 1>So I get it. Here's the problem though, Apparently DVDs

149
00:08:46.039 --> 00:08:50.120
<v Speaker 1>are The shelf life of a DVD is was estimated

150
00:08:50.200 --> 00:08:53.960
<v Speaker 1>to be fifty to one hundred years, and I understand

151
00:08:54.000 --> 00:08:58.840
<v Speaker 1>that's a big range, but different different companies have you know,

152
00:08:58.960 --> 00:09:03.919
<v Speaker 1>different printing prosses and the actual material they use. But

153
00:09:04.720 --> 00:09:07.440
<v Speaker 1>basically it was promised to the public that you know,

154
00:09:07.600 --> 00:09:09.960
<v Speaker 1>like minimum fifty years. And I guess that was good

155
00:09:10.000 --> 00:09:12.279
<v Speaker 1>enough with people because they're like, oh, yeah, probably be

156
00:09:12.360 --> 00:09:15.120
<v Speaker 1>dead or there's a problem now. And of course you

157
00:09:15.120 --> 00:09:19.000
<v Speaker 1>can ruin DVDs, you know, you scratch them, you leave

158
00:09:19.039 --> 00:09:22.159
<v Speaker 1>them out, the cats choose on it, whatever, But even

159
00:09:22.159 --> 00:09:26.159
<v Speaker 1>if you take care of them, there's that expectation. So

160
00:09:26.799 --> 00:09:31.639
<v Speaker 1>apparently DVDs produced by Warner Brothers are starting to rot,

161
00:09:33.159 --> 00:09:40.039
<v Speaker 1>and they are not not fifty years old. Specifically, DVDs

162
00:09:40.120 --> 00:09:43.240
<v Speaker 1>manufactured by Warner Brothers between two thousand and six and

163
00:09:43.279 --> 00:09:51.360
<v Speaker 1>two thousand and eight are literally rotting. It's what's it

164
00:09:51.399 --> 00:09:55.519
<v Speaker 1>called laser rot, Like they have a whole term for it. Now,

165
00:09:55.679 --> 00:09:58.039
<v Speaker 1>this was a problem with laser discs way back in

166
00:09:58.080 --> 00:10:00.360
<v Speaker 1>the day. But with the advent of DVD ease and

167
00:10:00.360 --> 00:10:03.200
<v Speaker 1>then into Blu Ray, they basically got rid of it.

168
00:10:03.279 --> 00:10:07.240
<v Speaker 1>But I guess Warner Brothers cheaped out on their manufacturing

169
00:10:07.279 --> 00:10:11.559
<v Speaker 1>process between six and eight. What are some of the

170
00:10:11.600 --> 00:10:16.679
<v Speaker 1>titles here? Uh so, uh, let's see a lot of these. Now,

171
00:10:16.759 --> 00:10:19.919
<v Speaker 1>a lot of these are not necessarily new run but

172
00:10:20.120 --> 00:10:22.879
<v Speaker 1>were DVDs that were produced for movie. They were like

173
00:10:22.960 --> 00:10:26.559
<v Speaker 1>re releases of movies that had previously come out. So, uh,

174
00:10:26.720 --> 00:10:29.480
<v Speaker 1>lethal all the lethal weapon movies if you bought during

175
00:10:29.480 --> 00:10:32.840
<v Speaker 1>that time. Uh, the box set of the Twilight Zones

176
00:10:32.879 --> 00:10:37.120
<v Speaker 1>on this list, I'm just standing here, Clockwork Orange. Actually,

177
00:10:37.120 --> 00:10:42.360
<v Speaker 1>there's a whole list here. Do do Do do? And

178
00:10:44.159 --> 00:10:48.159
<v Speaker 1>so far? Yeah, here we go. Oh look at that

179
00:10:48.240 --> 00:10:51.000
<v Speaker 1>all the Blade Runners. Now again it has to be

180
00:10:51.080 --> 00:10:56.159
<v Speaker 1>during that time. Oh no, Dukes of Hazzard, the Dukes

181
00:10:56.159 --> 00:10:59.279
<v Speaker 1>of Hazzard box set. Well, that's probably hate crime to

182
00:10:59.320 --> 00:11:04.679
<v Speaker 1>own that now, right. So so Warner Brothers like, what

183
00:11:04.679 --> 00:11:06.080
<v Speaker 1>do you what do you want us to do about it?

184
00:11:06.600 --> 00:11:10.320
<v Speaker 1>And consumers are like, and I did not realize there

185
00:11:10.399 --> 00:11:13.480
<v Speaker 1>is a whole segment of people that they're still on

186
00:11:13.600 --> 00:11:17.120
<v Speaker 1>they're still doing DVDs, not even Blu rays, they're still

187
00:11:17.120 --> 00:11:20.000
<v Speaker 1>doing DVDs, and I guess they still produce DVDs because

188
00:11:20.519 --> 00:11:25.080
<v Speaker 1>of overseas markets. So the question is going to become

189
00:11:25.279 --> 00:11:30.080
<v Speaker 1>what will what will Warner Brothers do? Because it's not

190
00:11:30.120 --> 00:11:32.759
<v Speaker 1>going to be cheap. You're talking about three years worth

191
00:11:32.799 --> 00:11:36.080
<v Speaker 1>of DVDs for one of the major studios in Hollywood,

192
00:11:36.519 --> 00:11:42.759
<v Speaker 1>and however, many copies of whatever you sold. So there's

193
00:11:42.799 --> 00:11:45.200
<v Speaker 1>no telling that they're going to make it right or

194
00:11:45.480 --> 00:11:47.559
<v Speaker 1>what they're going to attempt to do. But yeah, just

195
00:11:47.559 --> 00:11:51.559
<v Speaker 1>an interesting thing I was reading this morning. Do they

196
00:11:51.559 --> 00:11:55.320
<v Speaker 1>have the statement here from all Right? So this is

197
00:11:55.440 --> 00:11:57.879
<v Speaker 1>this is what they're offering to do. If it is

198
00:11:57.919 --> 00:12:00.840
<v Speaker 1>a title that is still in print, they're going to

199
00:12:00.919 --> 00:12:05.159
<v Speaker 1>create a process where you can, I guess, send it

200
00:12:05.200 --> 00:12:07.559
<v Speaker 1>in and then they'll replace it. The problem is the

201
00:12:07.679 --> 00:12:10.279
<v Speaker 1>list most of those are not in print, and Warner

202
00:12:10.320 --> 00:12:14.080
<v Speaker 1>Brothers doesn't necessarily have the rights to them anymore. So

203
00:12:14.120 --> 00:12:17.879
<v Speaker 1>you're probably just sol there. And my question is, well,

204
00:12:17.879 --> 00:12:19.879
<v Speaker 1>why wuldn't you just give them digital call? Well, that's

205
00:12:19.919 --> 00:12:22.440
<v Speaker 1>a rights issue too. I don't know what the answer is,

206
00:12:22.519 --> 00:12:25.559
<v Speaker 1>but that's going to suck. And if you have DVD

207
00:12:25.639 --> 00:12:27.440
<v Speaker 1>sitting in a box that you know, they might just

208
00:12:27.480 --> 00:12:34.080
<v Speaker 1>be rotting sitting there. Yeah, do you effected time? Most

209
00:12:34.120 --> 00:12:35.919
<v Speaker 1>of many of the affected titles are no longer in

210
00:12:35.960 --> 00:12:39.360
<v Speaker 1>print due to rights issues. Yeah, you just kind of

211
00:12:39.360 --> 00:12:42.840
<v Speaker 1>screwed Man fifty three year old Mexican mom of four,

212
00:12:43.759 --> 00:12:47.879
<v Speaker 1>also named one of Times one hundred most influential people.

213
00:12:48.799 --> 00:12:53.840
<v Speaker 1>So this goes back quite a ways fifteen years. Basically,

214
00:12:54.720 --> 00:12:58.320
<v Speaker 1>she had an order for removal in two thousand and nine.

215
00:12:58.360 --> 00:13:04.000
<v Speaker 1>Actually initially she's in the Denver area, Aurora specifically, and

216
00:13:05.080 --> 00:13:08.279
<v Speaker 1>initially under the Obama administration. Uh, she was pulled over

217
00:13:08.279 --> 00:13:11.399
<v Speaker 1>in Denver. They found her with a fake Social Security

218
00:13:11.440 --> 00:13:14.840
<v Speaker 1>card somebody else's number, but a card then with her

219
00:13:14.919 --> 00:13:17.639
<v Speaker 1>name on it. So uh, and she dot, oh, I

220
00:13:17.679 --> 00:13:22.720
<v Speaker 1>didn't know it wasn't real. BS, shut up, obviously you

221
00:13:22.799 --> 00:13:25.919
<v Speaker 1>knew it was you was it wasn't real. And at

222
00:13:25.919 --> 00:13:28.200
<v Speaker 1>that point they're like, ah, you shouldn't do that, and

223
00:13:28.240 --> 00:13:30.799
<v Speaker 1>then like then they didn't do anything except kind of

224
00:13:30.799 --> 00:13:33.960
<v Speaker 1>start the process. And then two months later she was

225
00:13:34.039 --> 00:13:37.799
<v Speaker 1>driving around with no license, no insurance. I got some

226
00:13:37.799 --> 00:13:39.639
<v Speaker 1>sort of acts. I don't think anyone was injured. But

227
00:13:40.399 --> 00:13:43.039
<v Speaker 1>and uh and finally the judge is like, now you

228
00:13:43.120 --> 00:13:46.320
<v Speaker 1>gotta you gotta go. You had it, you had an

229
00:13:46.320 --> 00:13:49.120
<v Speaker 1>illegal documents and now you're you're you're driving around, you're

230
00:13:49.120 --> 00:13:52.399
<v Speaker 1>a danger to the to the public. And uh, so

231
00:13:52.480 --> 00:13:55.759
<v Speaker 1>she she left for Mexico. However, she had her lawyer

232
00:13:55.799 --> 00:13:59.519
<v Speaker 1>at the time start attempting to get her a visa

233
00:14:00.240 --> 00:14:02.799
<v Speaker 1>and then attempting all sorts of different ones, and then

234
00:14:02.919 --> 00:14:06.679
<v Speaker 1>made an asylum claim, and when that wasn't moving fast

235
00:14:06.759 --> 00:14:10.240
<v Speaker 1>enough for her, she decided she'd sneak back into the country. Well,

236
00:14:10.320 --> 00:14:16.399
<v Speaker 1>now you have illegal entry, but as part of the process,

237
00:14:17.080 --> 00:14:19.840
<v Speaker 1>and once you accept that you're going to start that process,

238
00:14:20.039 --> 00:14:22.440
<v Speaker 1>if you violate the terms of it, it elevates what

239
00:14:22.480 --> 00:14:26.720
<v Speaker 1>that is. But she did it anyway, and so eventually

240
00:14:26.759 --> 00:14:30.159
<v Speaker 1>they caught her again in twenty thirteen and they gave

241
00:14:30.200 --> 00:14:33.279
<v Speaker 1>her a deportation order and then Obama, if you remember,

242
00:14:33.360 --> 00:14:38.320
<v Speaker 1>paused the order allowing her to stay because she started

243
00:14:38.399 --> 00:14:45.000
<v Speaker 1>doing activism and she founded what was the name of

244
00:14:45.080 --> 00:14:48.679
<v Speaker 1>the group, I don't know, some some some activist group

245
00:14:49.159 --> 00:14:53.080
<v Speaker 1>in in Denver, who you know. They I was looking

246
00:14:53.080 --> 00:14:55.720
<v Speaker 1>at some of their stuff would conflate legal. They'd leave,

247
00:14:55.919 --> 00:14:59.039
<v Speaker 1>you know, the legal versus illegal. Everyone was just immigrants. Yeah,

248
00:14:59.039 --> 00:15:03.200
<v Speaker 1>I mean, you know the game. And so eventually she

249
00:15:03.360 --> 00:15:08.120
<v Speaker 1>got a high enough profile that ICE agents and border

250
00:15:08.120 --> 00:15:13.519
<v Speaker 1>patrol folks started They're going, well, look, you have this order,

251
00:15:13.720 --> 00:15:16.399
<v Speaker 1>you have now this elevated re entry, We're going to

252
00:15:16.440 --> 00:15:19.679
<v Speaker 1>deport you. So she decided to go to the first

253
00:15:20.639 --> 00:15:25.759
<v Speaker 1>Unitarian Society church and go in there. And then they

254
00:15:25.799 --> 00:15:28.200
<v Speaker 1>called a press conference and all the media showed up

255
00:15:28.840 --> 00:15:30.799
<v Speaker 1>and this poor woman, she has to live in this church,

256
00:15:30.879 --> 00:15:34.320
<v Speaker 1>but your churches are off limits. You can't go in there.

257
00:15:34.919 --> 00:15:35.480
<v Speaker 2>Ahaha.

258
00:15:35.679 --> 00:15:38.399
<v Speaker 1>And then she did all the interviews, made the time list,

259
00:15:38.919 --> 00:15:42.960
<v Speaker 1>and I remember I remember listening to her and the

260
00:15:43.360 --> 00:15:48.720
<v Speaker 1>absolute arrogance that was there. But it wasn't even I

261
00:15:48.799 --> 00:15:50.200
<v Speaker 1>you know, I just I just want to be by

262
00:15:50.279 --> 00:15:51.840
<v Speaker 1>my family any of the rest of it, you know,

263
00:15:52.000 --> 00:15:55.840
<v Speaker 1>the heartstrings. Like. She was immensely unlikable, and I think

264
00:15:55.919 --> 00:15:58.440
<v Speaker 1>she just got full of herself because she she realized,

265
00:15:58.759 --> 00:16:03.039
<v Speaker 1>I'm thwarting the federal government, and so she bounced around

266
00:16:03.039 --> 00:16:06.879
<v Speaker 1>with churches. They eventually they during Trump's first term, they

267
00:16:06.919 --> 00:16:10.320
<v Speaker 1>offered they said, look how about we'll let you still

268
00:16:10.360 --> 00:16:13.519
<v Speaker 1>do the process. We will not charge you with the

269
00:16:13.600 --> 00:16:16.919
<v Speaker 1>second illegal entry, but you have to voluntarily get on

270
00:16:17.080 --> 00:16:20.399
<v Speaker 1>a commercial flight, which we'll pay for, and you have

271
00:16:20.440 --> 00:16:22.840
<v Speaker 1>to go back to Mexico. So they were going to

272
00:16:22.960 --> 00:16:26.480
<v Speaker 1>kind of give her a do over. So she left

273
00:16:26.519 --> 00:16:31.039
<v Speaker 1>the church and then it was driving over to DIA

274
00:16:31.440 --> 00:16:34.519
<v Speaker 1>the Denver airport, and then just dipped into another church,

275
00:16:35.919 --> 00:16:38.720
<v Speaker 1>just never showed and apparently nobody followed her. They just

276
00:16:38.720 --> 00:16:40.639
<v Speaker 1>trusted that she would go over to the airport, and

277
00:16:40.720 --> 00:16:42.240
<v Speaker 1>so she now showed for a flight and it was

278
00:16:42.279 --> 00:16:45.360
<v Speaker 1>the whole thing. And then she she just hid in

279
00:16:45.440 --> 00:16:49.240
<v Speaker 1>a series of churches, but was always doing interviews, especially

280
00:16:49.240 --> 00:16:51.639
<v Speaker 1>in the Denver media whenever there was an immigration issue.

281
00:16:51.679 --> 00:16:54.200
<v Speaker 1>She was kind of the go to person. They go, oh,

282
00:16:54.279 --> 00:16:56.960
<v Speaker 1>let's go talk to her. She was because of the organization,

283
00:16:57.120 --> 00:17:00.320
<v Speaker 1>because of the National pub Well, she had to make

284
00:17:00.360 --> 00:17:03.320
<v Speaker 1>a target run yesterday or not yesterday when we go

285
00:17:03.440 --> 00:17:10.119
<v Speaker 1>over the weekend, Yeah, yep, yep, yep. And they they

286
00:17:10.160 --> 00:17:14.480
<v Speaker 1>were waiting and they swooped her in the target parking lot.

287
00:17:14.960 --> 00:17:18.880
<v Speaker 1>And now she gonna go and her lawyers are of

288
00:17:18.920 --> 00:17:22.079
<v Speaker 1>course out there. If Ice proceeds with trying to remove

289
00:17:22.119 --> 00:17:24.839
<v Speaker 1>her without legal authority, it sends a chilling message about

290
00:17:24.839 --> 00:17:27.880
<v Speaker 1>the agency's disregard for due process and the rule of law.

291
00:17:28.119 --> 00:17:32.319
<v Speaker 1>All right, shut up, And what's interesting, And you saw

292
00:17:32.359 --> 00:17:37.400
<v Speaker 1>it on Columbia's campus, there was a they arrested that

293
00:17:38.359 --> 00:17:42.920
<v Speaker 1>hamas doctor Lady the UH and then the college activist

294
00:17:42.960 --> 00:17:45.559
<v Speaker 1>on Georgetown's campus, he was arrested.

295
00:17:46.359 --> 00:17:47.079
<v Speaker 3>So like.

296
00:17:49.319 --> 00:17:54.160
<v Speaker 1>The people, the people who were the most smug, over

297
00:17:54.200 --> 00:17:59.200
<v Speaker 1>the top, and arguably in some cases violent and disastrous.

298
00:17:59.200 --> 00:18:01.319
<v Speaker 1>I don't know if i'd call her violent necessarily, but

299
00:18:02.039 --> 00:18:04.279
<v Speaker 1>you know, definitely with what she saw in Columbia's camp

300
00:18:04.599 --> 00:18:10.440
<v Speaker 1>campus and Georgetown's campus and many others, like they've just

301
00:18:10.480 --> 00:18:12.400
<v Speaker 1>been keeping a list, man, and that seems to be

302
00:18:12.440 --> 00:18:16.119
<v Speaker 1>where the priorities are. And I'm here for it absolutely

303
00:18:17.200 --> 00:18:20.279
<v Speaker 1>watching a bunch of people who are here illegally not

304
00:18:20.480 --> 00:18:23.400
<v Speaker 1>have the good sense to try to avoid the spotlight

305
00:18:23.480 --> 00:18:27.960
<v Speaker 1>but rather embrace it for political purposes. It's going, it's

306
00:18:28.000 --> 00:18:32.279
<v Speaker 1>now backfiring on them, and I'm I'm good with that

307
00:18:32.759 --> 00:18:37.680
<v Speaker 1>absolutely So anyway, and I think she was actually working

308
00:18:37.720 --> 00:18:41.559
<v Speaker 1>at the target two or she had worked there for

309
00:18:41.599 --> 00:18:43.839
<v Speaker 1>a period of time, which is even crazier to me,

310
00:18:43.960 --> 00:18:49.519
<v Speaker 1>because like, how are you working in Oh, it's Colorado,

311
00:18:50.440 --> 00:18:52.680
<v Speaker 1>that's right, Colorado will just give you a worker. Do

312
00:18:52.680 --> 00:18:56.359
<v Speaker 1>you know in Colorado? I actually worked in Colorado. When

313
00:18:56.400 --> 00:18:58.480
<v Speaker 1>I got done with school, I moved to Colorado for

314
00:18:58.519 --> 00:19:01.000
<v Speaker 1>about a year, and so when I went to get

315
00:19:01.000 --> 00:19:02.960
<v Speaker 1>a job in Colorado, I don't know if it's still

316
00:19:03.000 --> 00:19:09.680
<v Speaker 1>this way. Everybody who gets a job in most situations

317
00:19:10.839 --> 00:19:14.960
<v Speaker 1>that is public facing in some way, shape or form.

318
00:19:15.160 --> 00:19:16.759
<v Speaker 1>You had to do a drug test. It was like

319
00:19:16.839 --> 00:19:19.599
<v Speaker 1>a mandatory thing in the state, which was weird at

320
00:19:19.599 --> 00:19:21.599
<v Speaker 1>the time. So you have to go in and do

321
00:19:22.119 --> 00:19:24.279
<v Speaker 1>your analysis to make sure you didn't have drugs in

322
00:19:24.319 --> 00:19:28.720
<v Speaker 1>your system. And I'd never California didn't do that. Wow,

323
00:19:28.799 --> 00:19:31.480
<v Speaker 1>we didn't do it, Montana, the three states I had

324
00:19:31.480 --> 00:19:35.839
<v Speaker 1>worked in, but there you did. But then they decided

325
00:19:36.440 --> 00:19:39.039
<v Speaker 1>you can come here illegally, have deportation orders, can get

326
00:19:39.039 --> 00:19:43.960
<v Speaker 1>a job. So she is on her way out. All right,

327
00:19:44.400 --> 00:19:47.599
<v Speaker 1>check this out. We got to solve us a mystery

328
00:19:47.599 --> 00:19:53.200
<v Speaker 1>on this fine morning. Okay, well, mystery, solve it. I

329
00:19:53.200 --> 00:19:55.400
<v Speaker 1>know it's early, but we're gonna go ahead and get

330
00:19:55.440 --> 00:20:01.759
<v Speaker 1>this thing. This is the organization in this article is

331
00:20:02.440 --> 00:20:07.759
<v Speaker 1>San fran Pride, which is San Francisco's Pride. Is a very,

332
00:20:07.839 --> 00:20:13.519
<v Speaker 1>very big LGBTQ group, and there's many, many, many like

333
00:20:13.599 --> 00:20:18.240
<v Speaker 1>them all over the country. And generally these are the

334
00:20:18.279 --> 00:20:23.960
<v Speaker 1>groups that sponsor events like Pride parades, the Pride months stuff,

335
00:20:24.519 --> 00:20:32.000
<v Speaker 1>and they have a problem. Apparently the funding for these

336
00:20:32.119 --> 00:20:40.400
<v Speaker 1>organizations has dried up. San Francisco's Pride executive director Suzanne

337
00:20:40.480 --> 00:20:45.240
<v Speaker 1>Ford says that they're very disappointed as a funding and

338
00:20:45.279 --> 00:20:52.240
<v Speaker 1>now they they're they're putting it on corporate sponsors, but

339
00:20:53.039 --> 00:20:55.799
<v Speaker 1>the numbers don't jive the amount of money that this

340
00:20:55.920 --> 00:21:00.480
<v Speaker 1>organization is down versus the amount of money that they

341
00:21:00.519 --> 00:21:03.799
<v Speaker 1>were getting from corporate sponsors, which included in San Francisco

342
00:21:03.880 --> 00:21:10.319
<v Speaker 1>Pride case, Comcast, Anheuser Busch, La Crema, which is it's

343
00:21:10.319 --> 00:21:14.400
<v Speaker 1>the wine, a couple other let's see here at the

344
00:21:14.400 --> 00:21:18.200
<v Speaker 1>company that makes Guinness, a few others. I have apparently

345
00:21:18.359 --> 00:21:22.839
<v Speaker 1>not made donations this year, choosing instead to move their

346
00:21:22.880 --> 00:21:27.400
<v Speaker 1>sponsorship to more inclusive, which is ironic word to use

347
00:21:27.480 --> 00:21:32.720
<v Speaker 1>inclusive events. But that doesn't speak to all of this.

348
00:21:34.880 --> 00:21:39.519
<v Speaker 1>They're also not getting donations from somewhere else. And that's

349
00:21:39.559 --> 00:21:42.079
<v Speaker 1>the mystery. That's what that's what I'm trying to solve

350
00:21:42.160 --> 00:21:45.720
<v Speaker 1>this morning. Because the corporate stuff looks like, it's less

351
00:21:45.759 --> 00:21:49.240
<v Speaker 1>than half of how much they're down. So where, oh

352
00:21:49.279 --> 00:21:52.720
<v Speaker 1>where do you think that other money was coming from

353
00:21:53.400 --> 00:21:56.759
<v Speaker 1>that that apparently is not coming in anymore. I have

354
00:21:56.839 --> 00:21:59.880
<v Speaker 1>some theories, and I'm gonna be interested to see some

355
00:22:00.000 --> 00:22:02.319
<v Speaker 1>analysis because this. I just saw the story last night,

356
00:22:02.359 --> 00:22:04.680
<v Speaker 1>and I'm sure that Daily Wire one of the others

357
00:22:04.720 --> 00:22:06.599
<v Speaker 1>is kind of digging into this ross. Do you have

358
00:22:06.640 --> 00:22:09.279
<v Speaker 1>any theories where some of that other money that's now

359
00:22:09.400 --> 00:22:11.400
<v Speaker 1>not coming in might have been coming from.

360
00:22:11.640 --> 00:22:13.440
<v Speaker 2>I mean, it might have disappeared due to inflation.

361
00:22:14.920 --> 00:22:18.599
<v Speaker 1>Oh okay, now everything that would not account for the

362
00:22:18.599 --> 00:22:20.480
<v Speaker 1>amount of money which is like three hundred and fifty

363
00:22:20.480 --> 00:22:24.440
<v Speaker 1>thousand they're down. That's non corporate, so anything.

364
00:22:24.079 --> 00:22:26.839
<v Speaker 2>Else, I mean, it is a mystery.

365
00:22:27.279 --> 00:22:31.599
<v Speaker 1>It is. It is strange that these particular organizations are

366
00:22:32.160 --> 00:22:35.920
<v Speaker 1>suddenly had a huge amount of funding not coming in,

367
00:22:37.079 --> 00:22:43.559
<v Speaker 1>some would say, some would speculate, and only because it's

368
00:22:43.839 --> 00:22:49.079
<v Speaker 1>pretty obvious here that the in kind donations from other

369
00:22:50.039 --> 00:22:57.319
<v Speaker 1>LGBT groups, the money that was basically funneled through that's

370
00:22:57.400 --> 00:23:02.319
<v Speaker 1>clearly missing. I'm sure that has nothing to do with U. S. A.

371
00:23:02.440 --> 00:23:07.599
<v Speaker 1>I D. Right, I mean that money's for you know,

372
00:23:08.160 --> 00:23:12.240
<v Speaker 1>Burmese Pride parades, not for not for this. No, it's

373
00:23:12.279 --> 00:23:18.119
<v Speaker 1>pretty clear that that's probably part of this. And and

374
00:23:18.200 --> 00:23:22.039
<v Speaker 1>like the then the sponsor stuff's interesting. I understand that though. Right,

375
00:23:22.640 --> 00:23:26.759
<v Speaker 1>there's a whole change now, a mindset change where you

376
00:23:26.799 --> 00:23:31.000
<v Speaker 1>don't have to show out, you don't have to, you know,

377
00:23:32.000 --> 00:23:37.039
<v Speaker 1>under penalty of you know, them putting you on blasts going. Well,

378
00:23:37.039 --> 00:23:39.880
<v Speaker 1>they you know the old Jesse Jackson rainbow push model

379
00:23:40.920 --> 00:23:42.880
<v Speaker 1>where they go to like go to Pepsi and they'd

380
00:23:42.880 --> 00:23:46.400
<v Speaker 1>be like, hey, Pepsi, you need you need to make

381
00:23:46.680 --> 00:23:49.359
<v Speaker 1>you need to make a big donation or we're gonna

382
00:23:49.400 --> 00:23:52.640
<v Speaker 1>we're gonna say you're racist because we did the analysis

383
00:23:52.680 --> 00:23:57.039
<v Speaker 1>and half of your employees are not black. Uh and

384
00:23:57.039 --> 00:24:01.000
<v Speaker 1>and then uh, Pepsi would I guess, go, well, it's

385
00:24:01.119 --> 00:24:03.720
<v Speaker 1>in you know, our Pepsi bottling plants in a community

386
00:24:03.759 --> 00:24:06.680
<v Speaker 1>that's only twenty percent black, so why would half of it?

387
00:24:06.720 --> 00:24:08.799
<v Speaker 1>And they'd be like, it doesn't matter. If not, we'll

388
00:24:08.799 --> 00:24:11.920
<v Speaker 1>do we'll do a boycott, and then Pepsi would write

389
00:24:11.920 --> 00:24:15.359
<v Speaker 1>a check. That's the old Jesse Jackson model, and that's

390
00:24:15.480 --> 00:24:19.039
<v Speaker 1>kind of what you have with the LGBT. And for

391
00:24:19.079 --> 00:24:22.039
<v Speaker 1>a while that was that was how they did things,

392
00:24:22.079 --> 00:24:25.880
<v Speaker 1>and then Anheuser Busch caught the horns with the Dylan

393
00:24:25.960 --> 00:24:29.880
<v Speaker 1>mulvany thing, and then they saw a sea change in

394
00:24:30.000 --> 00:24:33.440
<v Speaker 1>the thought process, especially with all of the transgender stuff

395
00:24:33.440 --> 00:24:36.480
<v Speaker 1>which turned off so many voters that you saw a

396
00:24:36.480 --> 00:24:39.759
<v Speaker 1>certain segment that came over and everything that happened happened.

397
00:24:40.240 --> 00:24:43.000
<v Speaker 1>And so these companies are just like, no, we're not

398
00:24:43.319 --> 00:24:48.799
<v Speaker 1>because they may. I preach this on the radio every day.

399
00:24:49.000 --> 00:24:51.839
<v Speaker 1>I said, most of these companies that are changing their

400
00:24:52.640 --> 00:24:55.599
<v Speaker 1>you know, logo for Pride Month not you know, not

401
00:24:55.799 --> 00:24:58.400
<v Speaker 1>in the United Arab Emirates, but they the logo here

402
00:24:58.440 --> 00:25:02.559
<v Speaker 1>on Twitter. While they I'm sure have people that are

403
00:25:02.599 --> 00:25:06.200
<v Speaker 1>activists within the company, from a corporate board standpoint, they

404
00:25:06.200 --> 00:25:10.319
<v Speaker 1>don't care. They made a calculated decision that it was

405
00:25:10.400 --> 00:25:15.200
<v Speaker 1>more financially injurious to not pacify these groups than it

406
00:25:15.319 --> 00:25:19.920
<v Speaker 1>was to irritate conservatives or you know whatever you want

407
00:25:19.960 --> 00:25:23.960
<v Speaker 1>to count the opposition as well. Now that dynamic has changed,

408
00:25:24.559 --> 00:25:28.920
<v Speaker 1>and so because you're dealing with essentially corporate atmosphere, they've

409
00:25:28.920 --> 00:25:32.920
<v Speaker 1>now decided it's more injurious to continue to do this.

410
00:25:33.200 --> 00:25:37.200
<v Speaker 1>And frankly, do you remember the have you seen videos

411
00:25:37.240 --> 00:25:40.720
<v Speaker 1>of the San Francisco Pride parade with all the kids

412
00:25:40.799 --> 00:25:43.319
<v Speaker 1>and the naked dudes on the bicycles and all that. Like,

413
00:25:43.799 --> 00:25:46.440
<v Speaker 1>it's one thing to have a parade. You can have

414
00:25:46.480 --> 00:25:48.400
<v Speaker 1>a preye. They used to have a big Pride parade

415
00:25:48.480 --> 00:25:52.319
<v Speaker 1>in downtown Saint Paul when I lived, I lived on

416
00:25:52.359 --> 00:25:54.920
<v Speaker 1>the parade route, so the Saint Patti's Parade, the Christmas Parade,

417
00:25:54.960 --> 00:25:58.119
<v Speaker 1>and yes they had the and they didn't have naked people.

418
00:25:58.319 --> 00:26:01.200
<v Speaker 1>They didn't have people that were painting sex acts or

419
00:26:01.240 --> 00:26:04.279
<v Speaker 1>running around in leather and stuff. They just had people

420
00:26:04.319 --> 00:26:07.720
<v Speaker 1>with you know, flags and you know different you know,

421
00:26:07.839 --> 00:26:10.359
<v Speaker 1>like pride, sports teams, whatever. And you could agree or

422
00:26:10.359 --> 00:26:12.680
<v Speaker 1>disagree with it, but at the end of the day,

423
00:26:12.759 --> 00:26:16.759
<v Speaker 1>it wasn't it wasn't visually offensive. And so when you

424
00:26:16.839 --> 00:26:19.559
<v Speaker 1>see the video of like San Francisco where they had

425
00:26:19.920 --> 00:26:22.559
<v Speaker 1>you know, naked dudes on bikes that were handing candy

426
00:26:22.559 --> 00:26:27.640
<v Speaker 1>to kids, I couldn't if I was a corporate sponsor,

427
00:26:27.640 --> 00:26:29.880
<v Speaker 1>I wouldn't want to be a part of that. But

428
00:26:30.880 --> 00:26:32.720
<v Speaker 1>I think a deep dive on this is going to

429
00:26:32.759 --> 00:26:35.039
<v Speaker 1>be very interesting, and I think you're also going to

430
00:26:35.039 --> 00:26:37.279
<v Speaker 1>be able to tell a lot of organizations where a

431
00:26:37.319 --> 00:26:40.960
<v Speaker 1>lot of this money was being funneled back to from

432
00:26:41.519 --> 00:26:44.960
<v Speaker 1>what I speculate might be kind of the USAID style stuff.

433
00:26:47.119 --> 00:26:48.400
<v Speaker 1>It shows me this.

434
00:26:48.480 --> 00:26:50.799
<v Speaker 2>We talked to Stephen last week about the you know,

435
00:26:50.839 --> 00:26:53.440
<v Speaker 2>the dwindling or the not so like no crowd protests

436
00:26:53.519 --> 00:26:55.880
<v Speaker 2>right the Department of Education. Can you imagine like two

437
00:26:55.960 --> 00:26:59.200
<v Speaker 2>years ago if that had happened, Oh my cuts, Oh

438
00:26:59.240 --> 00:26:59.720
<v Speaker 2>my gosh.

439
00:27:00.039 --> 00:27:06.559
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, yeah, yeah, so very interesting. Let's see here do

440
00:27:09.440 --> 00:27:12.240
<v Speaker 1>I'm reading the statements from the companies as to why

441
00:27:12.279 --> 00:27:17.039
<v Speaker 1>they stopped doing it. Nobody mentions politics, but they kind

442
00:27:17.079 --> 00:27:21.519
<v Speaker 1>of let it be known that something made them make

443
00:27:21.559 --> 00:27:24.680
<v Speaker 1>the decision, and they don't want to talk about it.

444
00:27:24.759 --> 00:27:27.240
<v Speaker 1>So yeah, I think they're just trying to figure out

445
00:27:27.240 --> 00:27:29.880
<v Speaker 1>what the balance is here, all right, six fifty kco

446
00:27:30.000 --> 00:27:31.319
<v Speaker 1>Day radio program.

447
00:27:31.319 --> 00:27:31.599
<v Speaker 4>Hang on.

448
00:27:31.720 --> 00:27:35.160
<v Speaker 1>I don't find myself watching ESPN unless they're unless they're

449
00:27:35.200 --> 00:27:38.559
<v Speaker 1>airing a sporting event that I'm watching, and I used

450
00:27:38.599 --> 00:27:41.079
<v Speaker 1>to watch a lot. I used to I used to

451
00:27:41.720 --> 00:27:45.640
<v Speaker 1>kind of make a point of just because you know,

452
00:27:45.680 --> 00:27:48.039
<v Speaker 1>I basically have my afternoons free for the most part

453
00:27:48.119 --> 00:27:51.759
<v Speaker 1>until I start prep I would watch you know, around

454
00:27:51.799 --> 00:27:54.799
<v Speaker 1>the horn and pardon the interruption, back of Cornheiser and

455
00:27:54.839 --> 00:27:58.240
<v Speaker 1>those guys, and it was generally a block I'd catch.

456
00:27:58.279 --> 00:28:00.920
<v Speaker 1>I didn't watch so much Sports Center, but I don't

457
00:28:01.440 --> 00:28:04.160
<v Speaker 1>unless there's a sporting event on ESPN. I just don't

458
00:28:04.160 --> 00:28:08.640
<v Speaker 1>even bother because it just it, it got so insufferable,

459
00:28:09.000 --> 00:28:12.839
<v Speaker 1>just the destruction of a brand that didn't have to

460
00:28:12.839 --> 00:28:16.200
<v Speaker 1>be political, was doing just fine and uh and it

461
00:28:16.319 --> 00:28:20.200
<v Speaker 1>was even able to have absolute lunatics like Keith Oberman.

462
00:28:21.319 --> 00:28:24.319
<v Speaker 1>Like Keith Oberman didn't just get crazy when he left ESPN,

463
00:28:24.720 --> 00:28:27.559
<v Speaker 1>no doubt. Dude's been like that his whole life, and

464
00:28:27.640 --> 00:28:31.279
<v Speaker 1>yet he was able to operate and be very likable

465
00:28:32.119 --> 00:28:34.720
<v Speaker 1>on ESPN. Did it? Ross? Did you have any idea

466
00:28:34.759 --> 00:28:38.200
<v Speaker 1>of Oberman's politics before they jettisoned him when he was

467
00:28:38.319 --> 00:28:38.720
<v Speaker 1>back in.

468
00:28:38.680 --> 00:28:40.640
<v Speaker 2>The you know the no, but as part of my

469
00:28:40.640 --> 00:28:44.279
<v Speaker 2>morning routine, and it was fantastic, like him in Who's

470
00:28:44.400 --> 00:28:48.000
<v Speaker 2>uh god, who did he do the show with? Well?

471
00:28:48.039 --> 00:28:50.119
<v Speaker 1>He was he was a sport he was, but they

472
00:28:50.119 --> 00:28:52.880
<v Speaker 1>did Sports Center. Yeah, but he was with the guy

473
00:28:52.920 --> 00:28:57.119
<v Speaker 1>who the guy who died of cancer. He had a

474
00:28:57.160 --> 00:28:58.640
<v Speaker 1>triangle connection. I'm sorry, why was?

475
00:29:00.279 --> 00:29:02.039
<v Speaker 2>It was fantastic and it was part of my morning.

476
00:29:02.200 --> 00:29:03.519
<v Speaker 2>Dan Patrick is who I'm thinking of.

477
00:29:03.720 --> 00:29:06.359
<v Speaker 1>Oh, Okay, yeah, you're Patrick Is with the other dude.

478
00:29:06.400 --> 00:29:08.000
<v Speaker 2>For a while, that was part of my morning routine

479
00:29:08.000 --> 00:29:08.920
<v Speaker 2>and they were fantastic.

480
00:29:09.519 --> 00:29:13.359
<v Speaker 1>Yes, it was entertaining. They did obviously got your sports fixed,

481
00:29:13.400 --> 00:29:15.720
<v Speaker 1>but like all the personalities were very likable.

482
00:29:15.799 --> 00:29:18.000
<v Speaker 2>I remember when he showed up on Rachel Mattow and MSNBC,

483
00:29:18.119 --> 00:29:20.400
<v Speaker 2>like you know, he did the show. He came on

484
00:29:20.480 --> 00:29:23.000
<v Speaker 2>after Rachel Mattow or before four, and I was like, wow,

485
00:29:23.039 --> 00:29:23.839
<v Speaker 2>this guy's crazy.

486
00:29:24.200 --> 00:29:29.279
<v Speaker 1>So yesterday on ESPN they were doing draft coverage. You know,

487
00:29:29.759 --> 00:29:31.880
<v Speaker 1>this is when they're putting mocked stuff together. You had

488
00:29:31.880 --> 00:29:34.640
<v Speaker 1>the combine that just just got done. Drafts right around

489
00:29:34.640 --> 00:29:37.240
<v Speaker 1>the corner, and you know that's what they should be doing,

490
00:29:37.440 --> 00:29:42.200
<v Speaker 1>right ESPN talking about the NFL Draft. Obviously, the NFL

491
00:29:42.400 --> 00:29:45.240
<v Speaker 1>is the most profitable sport in America. So sure, go

492
00:29:45.279 --> 00:29:47.920
<v Speaker 1>ahead and go ahead and do it. But the problem

493
00:29:48.039 --> 00:29:50.960
<v Speaker 1>is you got to fill time, and when you're filling

494
00:29:51.000 --> 00:29:53.039
<v Speaker 1>it with people think they got to be woke on this.

495
00:29:54.000 --> 00:30:00.240
<v Speaker 1>The the grown factor is is at an eleven. So

496
00:30:00.400 --> 00:30:03.640
<v Speaker 1>Ryan Clark, former NFL player, he's a good player in

497
00:30:03.680 --> 00:30:07.680
<v Speaker 1>the NFL too. He's there and they're they're talking about

498
00:30:07.720 --> 00:30:13.279
<v Speaker 1>Schador Sanders Okay, Dean Sanders kid Colorado Buffalo's uh and

499
00:30:13.559 --> 00:30:17.480
<v Speaker 1>uh you know, uh Dion obviously a Hall of Famer

500
00:30:17.519 --> 00:30:20.759
<v Speaker 1>there and they're trying to figure out where Sander's going

501
00:30:20.799 --> 00:30:23.920
<v Speaker 1>to go. But the discussion with Sanders is a more

502
00:30:24.000 --> 00:30:27.759
<v Speaker 1>complex one because for a couple of things you have.

503
00:30:28.480 --> 00:30:33.240
<v Speaker 1>Obviously it was kind of crazy times at Colorado. Now,

504
00:30:33.440 --> 00:30:37.160
<v Speaker 1>Sanders obviously was a highs you know from a Heisman perspective,

505
00:30:38.799 --> 00:30:40.519
<v Speaker 1>you know he was he was one of the favorites

506
00:30:40.519 --> 00:30:43.680
<v Speaker 1>all year and then you saw what happened. But they're

507
00:30:43.680 --> 00:30:45.359
<v Speaker 1>having a discussion about where he's going to go in

508
00:30:45.400 --> 00:30:48.640
<v Speaker 1>the draft. But it's not just about on the field stuff.

509
00:30:48.799 --> 00:30:51.640
<v Speaker 1>You have off the field stuff. Uh. You have the

510
00:30:51.799 --> 00:30:55.319
<v Speaker 1>general attitude of what was going on over at Colorado,

511
00:30:55.640 --> 00:31:00.720
<v Speaker 1>like where Uh, there are a lot of people at Colorado,

512
00:31:00.720 --> 00:31:05.039
<v Speaker 1>a former players who talked to his ability to be

513
00:31:05.160 --> 00:31:08.119
<v Speaker 1>a good teammate and that is stuff that you know,

514
00:31:08.200 --> 00:31:10.200
<v Speaker 1>the NFL wants to look at. You saw what happened

515
00:31:10.240 --> 00:31:14.279
<v Speaker 1>with Johnny Manziel who told what was it, Bernie Cozar

516
00:31:14.440 --> 00:31:16.599
<v Speaker 1>when the Rounds brought him in that he didn't want,

517
00:31:16.599 --> 00:31:18.519
<v Speaker 1>he didn't need quote an old man telling him how

518
00:31:18.559 --> 00:31:21.799
<v Speaker 1>to play quarterback, right, So they do pay attention to

519
00:31:21.839 --> 00:31:24.279
<v Speaker 1>that stuff. And then you had the incident where one

520
00:31:24.279 --> 00:31:27.960
<v Speaker 1>of the Sanders kids beat a dude up so badly

521
00:31:28.000 --> 00:31:31.720
<v Speaker 1>in Texas he became permanently disabled and they ended up

522
00:31:31.759 --> 00:31:33.279
<v Speaker 1>having to settle that. But he could even go to

523
00:31:33.319 --> 00:31:36.920
<v Speaker 1>Texas for a while. So yes, NFL teams are going

524
00:31:37.000 --> 00:31:40.160
<v Speaker 1>to look at that. But according to mister Clark, here

525
00:31:40.279 --> 00:31:44.240
<v Speaker 1>when it comes to quarterbacks and other quote skill positions,

526
00:31:44.279 --> 00:31:50.480
<v Speaker 1>you're talking about wide receiver, running back, tight end, those positions.

527
00:31:51.480 --> 00:31:53.359
<v Speaker 1>This is just so insane. So let me quote it.

528
00:31:53.720 --> 00:32:00.960
<v Speaker 1>NFL teams hesitate to draft players because they're black. What

529
00:32:01.039 --> 00:32:05.720
<v Speaker 1>are you talking about? What? Who is? Who is not?

530
00:32:06.759 --> 00:32:10.960
<v Speaker 1>Give me an example, dude, and and and and explain

531
00:32:11.039 --> 00:32:13.480
<v Speaker 1>to me, like I'm five, where an NFL team is

532
00:32:13.519 --> 00:32:18.359
<v Speaker 1>sitting there, and let's remove any off the field issues. Okay, right,

533
00:32:18.359 --> 00:32:20.839
<v Speaker 1>because those do count. If they don't think you're going

534
00:32:20.880 --> 00:32:22.599
<v Speaker 1>to be a good teammate, if they think you're you're

535
00:32:22.640 --> 00:32:24.680
<v Speaker 1>so arrogant, you're not going to listen to coaches, they're

536
00:32:24.680 --> 00:32:26.480
<v Speaker 1>going to factor that in. And I don't know that

537
00:32:26.519 --> 00:32:29.240
<v Speaker 1>Sanders is that way. I'm just going off with some

538
00:32:29.279 --> 00:32:35.079
<v Speaker 1>former players have said so teams look at that. But

539
00:32:35.160 --> 00:32:40.119
<v Speaker 1>let's remove all of that stuff. In modern history, all right,

540
00:32:40.319 --> 00:32:42.799
<v Speaker 1>this is we're not going back to the sixties or whatever.

541
00:32:43.799 --> 00:32:47.599
<v Speaker 1>But in modern history in my lifetime, I give me

542
00:32:47.720 --> 00:32:51.599
<v Speaker 1>one example of an NFL team that is blatantly passing

543
00:32:51.640 --> 00:32:53.240
<v Speaker 1>on a player because he's.

544
00:32:53.000 --> 00:32:55.839
<v Speaker 2>Black, and nobody cares. Man, you know, at the combine,

545
00:32:55.880 --> 00:32:57.279
<v Speaker 2>if they're doing like, oh my god, he can run

546
00:32:57.319 --> 00:32:58.960
<v Speaker 2>a forty in like half a second and throw the

547
00:32:58.960 --> 00:33:01.880
<v Speaker 2>ball five hundred yard there. But he's green. But he's green,

548
00:33:02.079 --> 00:33:03.440
<v Speaker 2>the owner is gonna be like, I don't care.

549
00:33:04.160 --> 00:33:08.640
<v Speaker 1>Yeah soon him, Yeah, nobody cares. And then I was thinking,

550
00:33:08.759 --> 00:33:13.319
<v Speaker 1>what what the just go to quarterbacks? How many when

551
00:33:13.480 --> 00:33:16.680
<v Speaker 1>was the last first where the last draft for the

552
00:33:16.680 --> 00:33:20.839
<v Speaker 1>first quarterback taken was white? And so I did look

553
00:33:20.880 --> 00:33:23.400
<v Speaker 1>this up and actually it was a few years ago.

554
00:33:24.119 --> 00:33:29.559
<v Speaker 1>But so last year Caleb Williams black from USC Bryce

555
00:33:29.640 --> 00:33:33.519
<v Speaker 1>Young bladed at Alabama, Black Panthers fans are well aware

556
00:33:33.559 --> 00:33:38.119
<v Speaker 1>of him, obviously, so he plays for and then Kenny Pickett.

557
00:33:38.119 --> 00:33:41.880
<v Speaker 1>So if you go three years ago Kenny Pickett in

558
00:33:42.000 --> 00:33:47.519
<v Speaker 1>twenty twenty two, Trevor Lawrence, who's extra white with that hair.

559
00:33:47.640 --> 00:33:52.079
<v Speaker 1>So I'll give you that one. But dude, come on,

560
00:33:52.240 --> 00:33:56.119
<v Speaker 1>is Trevor Lawrence not the whitest looking football player mostly

561
00:33:56.119 --> 00:33:58.559
<v Speaker 1>because he looks like a California beach bump surfer dude,

562
00:33:58.640 --> 00:34:02.200
<v Speaker 1>which is fine. I'm not insulted them, just pointing that out.

563
00:34:02.240 --> 00:34:07.480
<v Speaker 1>But what what are you talking about now? Does that

564
00:34:07.640 --> 00:34:10.800
<v Speaker 1>mean that that quarterback taken turned out to be the best? No?

565
00:34:11.159 --> 00:34:15.519
<v Speaker 1>Not necessarily, I mean obviously when it comes to Bryce Young,

566
00:34:15.880 --> 00:34:18.119
<v Speaker 1>still trying to figure that out. C J. Stroud and

567
00:34:18.159 --> 00:34:21.360
<v Speaker 1>Anthony Richardson arguably put up better number. Stroud definitely did.

568
00:34:22.079 --> 00:34:26.119
<v Speaker 1>He's maturing faster. But like it's this is the it's

569
00:34:26.159 --> 00:34:28.719
<v Speaker 1>the dumbest argument I've ever seen, and yet it is

570
00:34:28.760 --> 00:34:31.920
<v Speaker 1>an argument I've heard year after year after year in

571
00:34:32.079 --> 00:34:35.079
<v Speaker 1>various sports. Major League Baseball, remember they had the whole thing.

572
00:34:35.519 --> 00:34:37.760
<v Speaker 1>Why why is there a very small amount of black

573
00:34:37.760 --> 00:34:40.559
<v Speaker 1>players in Major League Baseball? Do you think it's because

574
00:34:40.599 --> 00:34:43.159
<v Speaker 1>Major League Baseball teams don't want black players that can

575
00:34:43.239 --> 00:34:48.679
<v Speaker 1>hit three, you know, above three hundred no or or

576
00:34:49.079 --> 00:34:52.320
<v Speaker 1>with an e RA under three. They'll sign. They'll sign

577
00:34:52.360 --> 00:34:58.079
<v Speaker 1>you in a minute if you're green. The reason, you know,

578
00:34:58.079 --> 00:35:00.559
<v Speaker 1>there's a lot of reasons, and I do give some

579
00:35:02.519 --> 00:35:07.239
<v Speaker 1>they do give sub credence to the idea that when

580
00:35:07.280 --> 00:35:09.719
<v Speaker 1>you get into inner city situations where you may have

581
00:35:09.760 --> 00:35:14.639
<v Speaker 1>a higher propensity of black athletes, that baseball opportunities may

582
00:35:14.679 --> 00:35:17.280
<v Speaker 1>not be as easy to find. But there have been

583
00:35:17.320 --> 00:35:22.239
<v Speaker 1>so many organizations that have attempted to to go ahead

584
00:35:22.400 --> 00:35:26.280
<v Speaker 1>and uh and and close that gap. So really the

585
00:35:26.320 --> 00:35:30.599
<v Speaker 1>primary driving reason is when you have somebody remember remember

586
00:35:30.719 --> 00:35:37.679
<v Speaker 1>this about top quality, top tier athletes. Uh, most of them,

587
00:35:38.159 --> 00:35:41.159
<v Speaker 1>if given the opportunity, could probably excel at a couple

588
00:35:41.199 --> 00:35:45.880
<v Speaker 1>of sports. And many have and have chosen to not

589
00:35:46.079 --> 00:35:47.039
<v Speaker 1>go to baseball.

590
00:35:47.159 --> 00:35:48.920
<v Speaker 2>You know, you saw this with Kyler Murray.

591
00:35:49.280 --> 00:35:51.960
<v Speaker 1>Kyler Murray is one. Uh, I mean there's so many,

592
00:35:52.360 --> 00:35:54.440
<v Speaker 1>and of course there's you know Deon Sanders, right, We're

593
00:35:54.440 --> 00:35:58.199
<v Speaker 1>just we're just mentioning him, and you know Bo Jackson

594
00:35:58.239 --> 00:36:01.679
<v Speaker 1>back in the day. But then people had to start choosing.

595
00:36:02.800 --> 00:36:05.400
<v Speaker 1>They had to start choosing, and they chose to play

596
00:36:05.440 --> 00:36:09.880
<v Speaker 1>in the NFL largely because it was more profitable or

597
00:36:10.039 --> 00:36:13.599
<v Speaker 1>in college you had coaches, Look, we had obviously NC

598
00:36:13.760 --> 00:36:18.119
<v Speaker 1>State lost a whole quarterback to Wisconsin because he wanted

599
00:36:18.119 --> 00:36:19.360
<v Speaker 1>to play baseball too.

600
00:36:19.480 --> 00:36:21.719
<v Speaker 2>I mean, it's more profitable and the season is shorter

601
00:36:21.760 --> 00:36:23.440
<v Speaker 2>as well. I mean, I guess it's more aggressive, but

602
00:36:23.519 --> 00:36:26.360
<v Speaker 2>I mean, think about the baseball season. Is it's from

603
00:36:26.440 --> 00:36:28.320
<v Speaker 2>you know, April till to October.

604
00:36:29.519 --> 00:36:32.400
<v Speaker 1>Let's see and and and they still get drafted too.

605
00:36:32.440 --> 00:36:33.880
<v Speaker 1>That's the that's the crazy thing. Do you know how

606
00:36:33.920 --> 00:36:37.440
<v Speaker 1>many NFL players playing right now technically there's a major

607
00:36:37.519 --> 00:36:41.280
<v Speaker 1>league Baseball team who holds their their draft holds them

608
00:36:41.320 --> 00:36:43.480
<v Speaker 1>from the drafts should they ever re enter the sport.

609
00:36:44.639 --> 00:36:48.480
<v Speaker 1>A bunch of them. Kyler Murray is the one ross

610
00:36:48.559 --> 00:36:51.920
<v Speaker 1>named like his contracts still who was it last year?

611
00:36:52.119 --> 00:36:54.599
<v Speaker 1>Was is it Jayden Daniels? Who was who got drafted

612
00:36:54.639 --> 00:36:59.800
<v Speaker 1>by the Yankees two or something? So like this, all

613
00:36:59.840 --> 00:37:02.599
<v Speaker 1>of this is dumb. All of this is and and

614
00:37:02.719 --> 00:37:05.760
<v Speaker 1>this is what ESPN chooses to fill time with brass

615
00:37:05.800 --> 00:37:09.960
<v Speaker 1>and I were just reminiscing, like you want to talk about,

616
00:37:10.400 --> 00:37:14.280
<v Speaker 1>you know, killing the Golden Goose Sports Center might be

617
00:37:14.440 --> 00:37:16.119
<v Speaker 1>one of the best examples ESPN.

618
00:37:17.440 --> 00:37:19.400
<v Speaker 2>It had to be so cheap to film too, because

619
00:37:19.400 --> 00:37:21.599
<v Speaker 2>it's just two dudes sitting behind a desk with a

620
00:37:21.599 --> 00:37:24.440
<v Speaker 2>green screen writing there and stuff just being funny.

621
00:37:25.119 --> 00:37:29.360
<v Speaker 1>You know, when ESPN really took off, like if there's

622
00:37:29.400 --> 00:37:32.280
<v Speaker 1>a whole documentary on this you can watch and Chris

623
00:37:32.320 --> 00:37:34.760
<v Speaker 1>Berman has interviewed a bunch of it, and Berman's talking

624
00:37:34.760 --> 00:37:36.480
<v Speaker 1>about when this whole thing kicked off, like they were

625
00:37:36.480 --> 00:37:38.599
<v Speaker 1>going around, they were trying, they were rounding up writers

626
00:37:38.719 --> 00:37:42.519
<v Speaker 1>and sports talk hosts, transition him to TV. Some of

627
00:37:42.559 --> 00:37:46.559
<v Speaker 1>these guys were TV news sports guys, and they you know,

628
00:37:46.639 --> 00:37:49.800
<v Speaker 1>created this campus and then basically they like bought this

629
00:37:49.880 --> 00:37:52.480
<v Speaker 1>like little cul de Sac neighborhood thing that's next to it.

630
00:37:52.559 --> 00:37:56.400
<v Speaker 1>And then like you had ESPN hosts that were living

631
00:37:56.519 --> 00:37:59.719
<v Speaker 1>in like roommate situations at some of these houses because

632
00:37:59.760 --> 00:38:01.559
<v Speaker 1>it was like everyone had a dream or we're going

633
00:38:01.599 --> 00:38:03.159
<v Speaker 1>to get this thing off the ground, and they did.

634
00:38:04.519 --> 00:38:06.960
<v Speaker 1>They were able to and and the Ross's point, nobody

635
00:38:07.039 --> 00:38:09.639
<v Speaker 1>was making real money. And then ESPN was making a

636
00:38:09.639 --> 00:38:12.480
<v Speaker 1>bunch of money. And then eventually, yeah, sure the contracts

637
00:38:12.519 --> 00:38:15.599
<v Speaker 1>went up and they started paying people, which they should, like,

638
00:38:15.920 --> 00:38:17.280
<v Speaker 1>you know, I want to get paid for what I do,

639
00:38:17.400 --> 00:38:20.320
<v Speaker 1>especially if we're bringing in the ratings. But it was

640
00:38:20.360 --> 00:38:24.079
<v Speaker 1>this natural growth and transition that that created this thing,

641
00:38:24.159 --> 00:38:28.480
<v Speaker 1>this thing that was not political, although I bet, I

642
00:38:28.639 --> 00:38:30.559
<v Speaker 1>bet back in the day, Keith Oberman used to go

643
00:38:30.559 --> 00:38:32.920
<v Speaker 1>into the break room and just start screaming about the Yeah.

644
00:38:32.920 --> 00:38:34.639
<v Speaker 2>I was wondering about that, like if he's always that

645
00:38:34.719 --> 00:38:37.320
<v Speaker 2>way or if there was a turning point, like there's no.

646
00:38:37.280 --> 00:38:40.159
<v Speaker 1>Way when the cameras weren't on, he wasn't running his mouth.

647
00:38:40.480 --> 00:38:41.719
<v Speaker 2>Uh George Bush.

648
00:38:41.920 --> 00:38:44.199
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I want to in the next segment, I want

649
00:38:44.239 --> 00:38:46.000
<v Speaker 1>to call for the death of George Bush. And they're like, no,

650
00:38:46.239 --> 00:38:48.800
<v Speaker 1>you can't do that. Right now, you're able to police just.

651
00:38:48.719 --> 00:38:50.920
<v Speaker 2>Say in fuego and boom, shacka laca and go on

652
00:38:51.000 --> 00:38:53.920
<v Speaker 2>with your day. Man, Right, That's all I want to

653
00:38:53.920 --> 00:38:56.039
<v Speaker 2>see because it's such an easy existence and he took

654
00:38:56.039 --> 00:38:57.440
<v Speaker 2>this different road. It's so weird.

655
00:38:57.840 --> 00:38:59.679
<v Speaker 1>And and you look at all the hosts over there.

656
00:39:00.119 --> 00:39:01.840
<v Speaker 1>Who was the one woman, Jammelle.

657
00:39:01.599 --> 00:39:04.760
<v Speaker 2>Hill, she's a yeah, she's a lunatic.

658
00:39:04.920 --> 00:39:07.199
<v Speaker 1>Remember she's the one who during the first Trump thing

659
00:39:07.360 --> 00:39:09.400
<v Speaker 1>was like in the decided you know what, I'm just

660
00:39:09.400 --> 00:39:12.239
<v Speaker 1>gonna I'm gonna just for no reason, be like, oh,

661
00:39:12.280 --> 00:39:15.159
<v Speaker 1>by the way, Donald Trump's a white supremacist. That was

662
00:39:15.199 --> 00:39:16.960
<v Speaker 1>a whole thing. And they're like, aren't you supposed to

663
00:39:17.000 --> 00:39:19.199
<v Speaker 1>be doing like NBA pregame right now? What's going on?

664
00:39:20.960 --> 00:39:25.480
<v Speaker 1>Just sheer lunacy and now you know you have the

665
00:39:25.719 --> 00:39:30.440
<v Speaker 1>layoffs there. The ratings are obviously down. ESPN likely way

666
00:39:30.559 --> 00:39:35.119
<v Speaker 1>overpaid for NBA. The amount of money that ESPN paid

667
00:39:35.159 --> 00:39:38.320
<v Speaker 1>for I think it's half of the primetime NBA games.

668
00:39:40.400 --> 00:39:44.000
<v Speaker 1>I'm trying, it's a super big deal. They were absolutely

669
00:39:44.000 --> 00:39:46.559
<v Speaker 1>losing their butt because NBA ratings are down like forty

670
00:39:46.599 --> 00:39:49.559
<v Speaker 1>percent right now. It's like they have some issues over there,

671
00:39:49.719 --> 00:39:52.519
<v Speaker 1>so you would think you would do things to not

672
00:39:52.679 --> 00:39:55.199
<v Speaker 1>alienate the rest of your audience. You're now trying to

673
00:39:55.199 --> 00:39:57.000
<v Speaker 1>make up that that loss that you had, and.

674
00:39:57.039 --> 00:39:58.960
<v Speaker 2>It's not a hard thing to fix either, Like they're

675
00:39:59.000 --> 00:40:01.440
<v Speaker 2>bringing in these consultant and start having these like panels

676
00:40:01.519 --> 00:40:03.760
<v Speaker 2>or how can we fix it? ESPN? If you because

677
00:40:03.800 --> 00:40:08.480
<v Speaker 2>it's almost unwatchable now because it's so much politics. Do sports?

678
00:40:08.519 --> 00:40:11.239
<v Speaker 2>Similar with CNN, they're like, CNN, how can we fix

679
00:40:11.280 --> 00:40:14.119
<v Speaker 2>this problem? Well, I don't report the news.

680
00:40:14.559 --> 00:40:17.719
<v Speaker 1>That's its CNN's inevitably going. It's going to be harder

681
00:40:17.760 --> 00:40:20.039
<v Speaker 1>for CNN because the news is so much politics.

682
00:40:20.079 --> 00:40:22.320
<v Speaker 2>But yeah, but you can report it without the bias

683
00:40:22.360 --> 00:40:22.679
<v Speaker 2>they have.

684
00:40:23.360 --> 00:40:25.400
<v Speaker 1>Correct No, no, no, I totally agree with you. But

685
00:40:25.559 --> 00:40:29.079
<v Speaker 1>with ESPN they can largely choose to avoid it entirely

686
00:40:30.000 --> 00:40:33.440
<v Speaker 1>because there's there should not be an expectation that the

687
00:40:33.480 --> 00:40:35.480
<v Speaker 1>Sports Center host is going to let you know what

688
00:40:35.519 --> 00:40:38.239
<v Speaker 1>he thinks of the doge cuts, right, that would have

689
00:40:38.239 --> 00:40:40.000
<v Speaker 1>been unfathomable twenty years ago.

690
00:40:40.119 --> 00:40:42.159
<v Speaker 2>Think about how many catchphrases, right at least when I

691
00:40:42.199 --> 00:40:43.679
<v Speaker 2>was back in school, we'd be at the bus stop

692
00:40:43.719 --> 00:40:46.119
<v Speaker 2>talking to you know, and just dropping catchphrases from Sports

693
00:40:46.159 --> 00:40:49.760
<v Speaker 2>Center from ESPN. When's the last time that happened? Yeah,

694
00:40:49.920 --> 00:40:51.960
<v Speaker 2>I honestly I don't even know what they are because

695
00:40:51.960 --> 00:40:54.360
<v Speaker 2>I don't watch it. Now are do they have some catchphrases?

696
00:40:54.400 --> 00:40:54.559
<v Speaker 4>Now?

697
00:40:54.800 --> 00:40:56.079
<v Speaker 1>Oh? By the way, the host I was trying to

698
00:40:56.079 --> 00:40:59.079
<v Speaker 1>remember who died of cancer with Stuart Scott. Stuart Scott,

699
00:40:59.079 --> 00:41:04.280
<v Speaker 1>who was great, great and and so like you see

700
00:41:04.320 --> 00:41:06.840
<v Speaker 1>this stuff every day. There's a Twitter account. We've talked

701
00:41:06.880 --> 00:41:10.360
<v Speaker 1>about it on the show. It's funny. It's called mug Shoties,

702
00:41:10.800 --> 00:41:14.599
<v Speaker 1>where it's h H A W or s h A

703
00:41:14.920 --> 00:41:17.239
<v Speaker 1>W T y s right now.

704
00:41:17.320 --> 00:41:19.559
<v Speaker 2>All it is both super hot women who like you know,

705
00:41:19.599 --> 00:41:20.480
<v Speaker 2>committed crimes.

706
00:41:20.760 --> 00:41:23.400
<v Speaker 1>Mug shots. That's it. They just they just troll the

707
00:41:23.480 --> 00:41:26.079
<v Speaker 1>mug shots, the online database of mug shots and then

708
00:41:26.119 --> 00:41:28.159
<v Speaker 1>people submit them right because now they're on it, so

709
00:41:28.199 --> 00:41:30.599
<v Speaker 1>it even got easier for them. And so if you're

710
00:41:30.599 --> 00:41:32.719
<v Speaker 1>a smoke show and you got arrested for like duy

711
00:41:32.840 --> 00:41:35.440
<v Speaker 1>or whatever, they put it up and sometimes they put

712
00:41:35.480 --> 00:41:37.159
<v Speaker 1>mug shots up or they don't know what the chick

713
00:41:37.199 --> 00:41:39.519
<v Speaker 1>did and then they guess what she did out it's

714
00:41:39.519 --> 00:41:43.920
<v Speaker 1>super hilarious and that's it. You caught lightning in a bottle.

715
00:41:43.960 --> 00:41:46.760
<v Speaker 1>They that's the thing blew up. I remember when we

716
00:41:46.800 --> 00:41:48.480
<v Speaker 1>first saw it only had a few thousand, and now

717
00:41:48.519 --> 00:41:51.920
<v Speaker 1>it has a half billion people that follow it on Twitter,

718
00:41:52.239 --> 00:41:54.719
<v Speaker 1>which you know, that's that's a pretty good amount there.

719
00:41:55.159 --> 00:41:58.199
<v Speaker 1>You this is turn key, and and people are sending

720
00:41:58.239 --> 00:42:00.800
<v Speaker 1>you the mug shots because you're you're so big now

721
00:42:00.800 --> 00:42:04.760
<v Speaker 1>you don't even have to do anything. So yesterday, I'm

722
00:42:04.800 --> 00:42:07.599
<v Speaker 1>just a mine in my own business, is strolling on

723
00:42:07.639 --> 00:42:11.239
<v Speaker 1>the Twitter seeing what's up. And you know, I did

724
00:42:11.320 --> 00:42:13.119
<v Speaker 1>follow them on the show. I think we still follow him.

725
00:42:13.119 --> 00:42:17.599
<v Speaker 1>I probably can unfollow them. And I'm just cruising through

726
00:42:17.679 --> 00:42:25.039
<v Speaker 1>there and I see Matt Walsh posted something and he

727
00:42:25.159 --> 00:42:28.840
<v Speaker 1>said America is not a nation built by immigrants. America

728
00:42:28.880 --> 00:42:31.679
<v Speaker 1>was built by settlers. There's a difference and this is

729
00:42:31.760 --> 00:42:39.199
<v Speaker 1>because some lunatic yesterday said that the America was basically

730
00:42:39.239 --> 00:42:44.639
<v Speaker 1>a big homeless shelter when we got here. Yeah, I

731
00:42:44.639 --> 00:42:46.920
<v Speaker 1>mean kind of. I guess I don't know if that's

732
00:42:47.199 --> 00:42:48.719
<v Speaker 1>how i'd word it there. And they did have to

733
00:42:48.760 --> 00:42:52.800
<v Speaker 1>obviously build some infrastructure, but whatever, it kicked off this

734
00:42:52.880 --> 00:42:57.599
<v Speaker 1>whole discussion, and Walsh is right to say immigrants versus settlers.

735
00:42:57.679 --> 00:43:02.079
<v Speaker 1>In my mind, a settler is somebody who establishes that infrastructure,

736
00:43:02.599 --> 00:43:05.719
<v Speaker 1>and an immigrant is while still a settler, can be

737
00:43:05.760 --> 00:43:08.360
<v Speaker 1>an immigrant. They didn't have anything to immigrate too, do

738
00:43:08.400 --> 00:43:09.000
<v Speaker 1>you know what I mean?

739
00:43:09.360 --> 00:43:11.840
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, there was nothing here, man. They had to build everything.

740
00:43:11.960 --> 00:43:16.360
<v Speaker 1>Right, and so an immigrant would then move where something already.

741
00:43:16.079 --> 00:43:18.400
<v Speaker 2>Is and think about what the like, what we've built

742
00:43:18.400 --> 00:43:22.920
<v Speaker 2>in two hundred plus years. It's dude, we built some stuff.

743
00:43:23.079 --> 00:43:25.400
<v Speaker 2>Yeah it's gone pretty, it's gone well.

744
00:43:25.559 --> 00:43:28.920
<v Speaker 1>Yeah yeah, all right. So Walsh is making this point,

745
00:43:28.920 --> 00:43:31.400
<v Speaker 1>and honestly, I think it's really a dumb thing to

746
00:43:31.480 --> 00:43:35.119
<v Speaker 1>argue over whatever. And then lo and behold this mug

747
00:43:35.159 --> 00:43:37.599
<v Speaker 1>Shorty's account, which has again, you don't have to do

748
00:43:37.639 --> 00:43:41.639
<v Speaker 1>anything except post hot chicks with mugshots. That's it. That's

749
00:43:41.679 --> 00:43:43.880
<v Speaker 1>your job. Decided they were going to get into a

750
00:43:43.960 --> 00:43:48.960
<v Speaker 1>Twitter woke Twitter battle with Matt Walsh. What are you doing?

751
00:43:51.519 --> 00:43:54.760
<v Speaker 1>Here's what mug Shorty's posted. You're wrong. The Americas were

752
00:43:54.760 --> 00:43:57.920
<v Speaker 1>already inhabited by tens of millions, maybe hundreds of millions

753
00:43:57.960 --> 00:44:00.000
<v Speaker 1>of indigenous people. And that was not hundreds of millions.

754
00:44:00.360 --> 00:44:02.159
<v Speaker 1>We have a pretty good estimate it was not that much.

755
00:44:02.199 --> 00:44:04.760
<v Speaker 1>It wouldn't matter if it was or hundreds of millions

756
00:44:04.800 --> 00:44:08.440
<v Speaker 1>of indigenous people long before the colonizers arrived.

757
00:44:07.880 --> 00:44:10.400
<v Speaker 2>Where their buildings?

758
00:44:10.800 --> 00:44:11.159
<v Speaker 1>What's that?

759
00:44:11.239 --> 00:44:12.079
<v Speaker 2>Where their buildings?

760
00:44:14.199 --> 00:44:14.639
<v Speaker 3>Uh?

761
00:44:14.679 --> 00:44:16.519
<v Speaker 1>Well, I mean there was like wigwams and stuff.

762
00:44:16.519 --> 00:44:17.639
<v Speaker 2>I mean like a building.

763
00:44:19.000 --> 00:44:21.800
<v Speaker 1>Well what about the carved down for the Pueblo people

764
00:44:21.840 --> 00:44:23.199
<v Speaker 1>where they carved the houses?

765
00:44:24.360 --> 00:44:24.880
<v Speaker 2>No buildings?

766
00:44:27.639 --> 00:44:30.360
<v Speaker 1>Well, I guess technically there was that one. They found

767
00:44:30.639 --> 00:44:34.840
<v Speaker 1>that structure that the Vikings built, remember and then left because.

768
00:44:35.800 --> 00:44:36.840
<v Speaker 2>Was there steeling metal?

769
00:44:37.480 --> 00:44:40.320
<v Speaker 1>No, it was rocks and earth and some other stuff.

770
00:44:40.440 --> 00:44:42.239
<v Speaker 1>They did find some metal there. It was how they

771
00:44:42.239 --> 00:44:44.480
<v Speaker 1>figured out it was Vikings. But it was tools or something.

772
00:44:45.079 --> 00:44:50.199
<v Speaker 1>Uh yeah, No, no buildings, no, nothing, not even not

773
00:44:50.280 --> 00:44:52.679
<v Speaker 1>even a cookout. Ross did you know that there was

774
00:44:52.719 --> 00:44:54.480
<v Speaker 1>not a cookout when they got here or an olive

775
00:44:54.480 --> 00:44:59.559
<v Speaker 1>garden nowhere, and no, we had to build all that.

776
00:45:00.039 --> 00:45:04.360
<v Speaker 1>So it's like again the inability of people just to recognize, hey,

777
00:45:04.400 --> 00:45:06.599
<v Speaker 1>I got a good thing going, maybe I won't screw

778
00:45:06.639 --> 00:45:09.920
<v Speaker 1>this up. When the TDS takes over, it just takes over.

779
00:45:10.960 --> 00:45:13.519
<v Speaker 1>You can't help yourself. And it's just really weird to

780
00:45:13.559 --> 00:45:16.039
<v Speaker 1>see something that's never been political all of a sudden

781
00:45:16.079 --> 00:45:18.599
<v Speaker 1>be hyper political. All right, anyway, we got to take

782
00:45:18.599 --> 00:45:20.519
<v Speaker 1>a break. We'll be right back. I'm sure many of you,

783
00:45:20.679 --> 00:45:24.719
<v Speaker 1>many of you guys obviously follow the Bulgarian soccer team,

784
00:45:25.599 --> 00:45:29.320
<v Speaker 1>but they had a han A soccer match here earlier

785
00:45:29.320 --> 00:45:34.159
<v Speaker 1>this week, and prior to the match, they came out,

786
00:45:34.199 --> 00:45:37.599
<v Speaker 1>they were doing announcements and they decided they announced one

787
00:45:37.639 --> 00:45:42.800
<v Speaker 1>of the most legendary Bulgarian soccer players, who pet Petko

788
00:45:43.320 --> 00:45:47.760
<v Speaker 1>Ganchev whatever I don't know, but anyway, they had a

789
00:45:47.800 --> 00:45:50.039
<v Speaker 1>moment of silence. They announced this guy who's in their

790
00:45:50.079 --> 00:45:52.519
<v Speaker 1>soccer Hall of Fame or whatever, had passed away, died

791
00:45:52.519 --> 00:45:54.360
<v Speaker 1>at the age of seventy eight. So they had the

792
00:45:54.360 --> 00:45:58.360
<v Speaker 1>moment of silence, and then they go to the match

793
00:45:58.559 --> 00:46:03.920
<v Speaker 1>and then something weird happens, literally within minutes of the

794
00:46:03.960 --> 00:46:08.159
<v Speaker 1>start of the of the match. The dude who they

795
00:46:08.159 --> 00:46:11.800
<v Speaker 1>had the moment of silence for literally called somebody at

796
00:46:11.840 --> 00:46:15.760
<v Speaker 1>like the front office is like, I'm alive. So I

797
00:46:15.800 --> 00:46:19.760
<v Speaker 1>had to literally announce that he wasn't dead at the

798
00:46:19.760 --> 00:46:20.599
<v Speaker 1>middle period there.

799
00:46:20.920 --> 00:46:22.239
<v Speaker 2>Why did they think he was dead?

800
00:46:22.760 --> 00:46:25.760
<v Speaker 1>I don't know. It doesn't really say here.

801
00:46:25.840 --> 00:46:27.719
<v Speaker 2>Is it just because he's one of those people? Yeah,

802
00:46:27.719 --> 00:46:29.480
<v Speaker 2>I mean we've all done it before where we find

803
00:46:29.480 --> 00:46:32.000
<v Speaker 2>out somebody, you know, somebody will pass away and he'll.

804
00:46:31.840 --> 00:46:34.440
<v Speaker 1>Be like, oh my god, I thought they were already dead. Yeah,

805
00:46:34.519 --> 00:46:36.320
<v Speaker 1>now that's true. We have there, We have been there.

806
00:46:36.360 --> 00:46:41.199
<v Speaker 1>Gan Chef said, normally he watches every match from you know,

807
00:46:41.239 --> 00:46:43.440
<v Speaker 1>the beginning to the end. However, he said he was

808
00:46:43.519 --> 00:46:47.119
<v Speaker 1>running late getting back home, and he said it was

809
00:46:47.199 --> 00:46:50.519
<v Speaker 1>very weird because as he was driving home, his phone

810
00:46:50.599 --> 00:46:53.760
<v Speaker 1>was blowing up, and he said that he waited till

811
00:46:53.760 --> 00:46:56.679
<v Speaker 1>he got home and then you know, went to see

812
00:46:56.679 --> 00:46:59.119
<v Speaker 1>what the messages were and they're like, hey, sorry, you're dead,

813
00:46:59.159 --> 00:47:01.440
<v Speaker 1>and then he's like I'm not. So there you go.

814
00:47:02.280 --> 00:47:06.079
<v Speaker 1>That's gotta be weird too, man. Somebody announces who did

815
00:47:06.079 --> 00:47:08.960
<v Speaker 1>that happen to their their their death got announced and

816
00:47:09.320 --> 00:47:10.840
<v Speaker 1>it went kind of viral on Twitter.

817
00:47:11.960 --> 00:47:15.039
<v Speaker 2>And they were like, I'm not dead. This just happened

818
00:47:15.039 --> 00:47:20.000
<v Speaker 2>with newman from Seinfeld. It's happened a bunch of times, Okay, yeah,

819
00:47:20.039 --> 00:47:21.239
<v Speaker 2>and he's like, no, I'm not dead.

820
00:47:21.519 --> 00:47:23.639
<v Speaker 1>I think people in the comments are like, you're not him,

821
00:47:23.920 --> 00:47:24.400
<v Speaker 1>you're dead.

822
00:47:24.599 --> 00:47:26.719
<v Speaker 2>If that were to happen to you, like, say you're

823
00:47:26.800 --> 00:47:28.519
<v Speaker 2>him and you're getting all these calls are coming in

824
00:47:28.559 --> 00:47:30.840
<v Speaker 2>and it's getting in the news, would you immediately say

825
00:47:30.880 --> 00:47:33.800
<v Speaker 2>you're not dead? Or would you sitting I would watch

826
00:47:33.840 --> 00:47:36.679
<v Speaker 2>it for a bit. Yeah, I'd be interested, Like I

827
00:47:36.719 --> 00:47:37.760
<v Speaker 2>think we all are right.

828
00:47:38.119 --> 00:47:40.000
<v Speaker 1>I might just be like, ah, I'm dead, so now

829
00:47:40.039 --> 00:47:43.599
<v Speaker 1>I can go do stuff, you know, just you know,

830
00:47:43.719 --> 00:47:46.239
<v Speaker 1>get it, get a get a box and a few

831
00:47:46.239 --> 00:47:49.920
<v Speaker 1>bags or whatever loaded up, and uh, get out of there.

832
00:47:50.480 --> 00:47:55.760
<v Speaker 1>So yeah, plus you can haunt people, so that'd.

833
00:47:55.559 --> 00:47:56.960
<v Speaker 2>Be the best. Yeah.

834
00:47:57.000 --> 00:47:59.320
<v Speaker 1>So if you like, if everyone thinks you're dead, give it,

835
00:47:59.400 --> 00:48:01.400
<v Speaker 1>give it a tick, and then just start showing up

836
00:48:01.400 --> 00:48:03.159
<v Speaker 1>outside people's windows at night.

837
00:48:03.239 --> 00:48:05.519
<v Speaker 2>Who will know who you're are and like whispered prophecies

838
00:48:05.559 --> 00:48:06.039
<v Speaker 2>and stuff.

839
00:48:06.480 --> 00:48:09.320
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, they're like, don't come any closer. And then you know,

840
00:48:09.760 --> 00:48:11.800
<v Speaker 1>have the ability to hide when they come out. Oh yeah,

841
00:48:11.840 --> 00:48:15.440
<v Speaker 1>you could screw with so many people. That'd be great.

842
00:48:16.199 --> 00:48:18.239
<v Speaker 1>Oh now I kind of want to fake my own death.

843
00:48:20.079 --> 00:48:21.559
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, but wouldn't you be sad if, like you had

844
00:48:21.559 --> 00:48:23.679
<v Speaker 2>no reaction. What if everybody was like, yeah, good, I

845
00:48:23.719 --> 00:48:24.239
<v Speaker 2>hate that guy.

846
00:48:24.760 --> 00:48:29.039
<v Speaker 1>Well, yeah, are you talking about r L. I'd be

847
00:48:29.079 --> 00:48:32.559
<v Speaker 1>sad if they didn't write a hate piece. But yeah, no,

848
00:48:33.079 --> 00:48:34.840
<v Speaker 1>that would be the bat that would be the thing.

849
00:48:34.920 --> 00:48:36.880
<v Speaker 1>Did they didn't? They just had some guy in the news.

850
00:48:36.880 --> 00:48:38.760
<v Speaker 1>You faked this. He's not famous. He faked his own

851
00:48:38.800 --> 00:48:42.119
<v Speaker 1>death literally just to see if his kids were turds

852
00:48:42.199 --> 00:48:44.639
<v Speaker 1>or not. I just I remember just reading that story.

853
00:48:44.639 --> 00:48:45.199
<v Speaker 1>Where was that?

854
00:48:45.239 --> 00:48:46.880
<v Speaker 2>Well, no, you had the other guy that faked his

855
00:48:46.960 --> 00:48:49.760
<v Speaker 2>death and moved to uh for his mail in Russian

856
00:48:49.800 --> 00:48:50.440
<v Speaker 2>bride or whatever.

857
00:48:50.639 --> 00:48:52.920
<v Speaker 1>No, No, it wasn't Russia. It was even worse than that.

858
00:48:52.920 --> 00:48:56.719
<v Speaker 1>Where did he go? Was kaz concert Stan or something? Yeah,

859
00:48:56.840 --> 00:48:59.119
<v Speaker 1>in Wisconsin. He faked his own death in the canoe

860
00:48:59.119 --> 00:49:00.880
<v Speaker 1>accident and the lake up there, And.

861
00:49:00.840 --> 00:49:02.639
<v Speaker 2>Then I believe it turned out like she wasn't believe

862
00:49:02.639 --> 00:49:04.360
<v Speaker 2>it or not. She wasn't even like an actual like

863
00:49:04.400 --> 00:49:08.679
<v Speaker 2>how like Kazakhstanian. Yeah, she was like a fat dude

864
00:49:08.760 --> 00:49:11.760
<v Speaker 2>named whatever their names are in Kazakhstan. Yeah, I was

865
00:49:11.760 --> 00:49:12.320
<v Speaker 2>gonna say.

866
00:49:13.559 --> 00:49:18.519
<v Speaker 1>Well Borat probably Yeah, so yeah, that's that's good stuff there. Yeah,

867
00:49:18.519 --> 00:49:20.880
<v Speaker 1>that would be sad. That would be sad. But again,

868
00:49:21.039 --> 00:49:23.119
<v Speaker 1>you can still do the haunting thing even if like

869
00:49:23.280 --> 00:49:26.199
<v Speaker 1>the famous part of you that nobody cares like, you know,

870
00:49:26.280 --> 00:49:28.960
<v Speaker 1>people in your inner circle are going to know, so

871
00:49:29.000 --> 00:49:34.519
<v Speaker 1>you still go haunt them. Oh yeah, so Ross you're

872
00:49:34.519 --> 00:49:39.239
<v Speaker 1>gonna go prophecies really because you know some people might

873
00:49:39.280 --> 00:49:41.280
<v Speaker 1>do the Son of Sam thing with the dog that

874
00:49:41.360 --> 00:49:45.360
<v Speaker 1>was given orders, but probably probably not a good idea.

875
00:49:45.639 --> 00:49:47.800
<v Speaker 1>All right, let me jump back over to this, speaking

876
00:49:47.840 --> 00:49:51.519
<v Speaker 1>of bad ideas, dude, Florida is just leading the charge today.

877
00:49:51.599 --> 00:49:54.360
<v Speaker 1>Oh a reminder too, We got our NERD correspondent to

878
00:49:54.440 --> 00:49:56.519
<v Speaker 1>Stephen Kent coming up. That's where we're going to talk

879
00:49:56.519 --> 00:49:59.559
<v Speaker 1>about sports betting in there, and it'll he he just

880
00:49:59.559 --> 00:50:02.719
<v Speaker 1>wrote an art article on this, so and then we

881
00:50:02.760 --> 00:50:06.440
<v Speaker 1>got a few other things. But speaking of bad idea,

882
00:50:06.480 --> 00:50:10.280
<v Speaker 1>is Florida leading the charge today? I'm gonna be somewhat

883
00:50:10.320 --> 00:50:13.159
<v Speaker 1>delicate with this story because I know that some of

884
00:50:13.199 --> 00:50:17.960
<v Speaker 1>you are going to have a right emotional reaction to this,

885
00:50:18.239 --> 00:50:22.000
<v Speaker 1>and you should, and frankly, I don't know if we

886
00:50:22.039 --> 00:50:27.719
<v Speaker 1>can catapult this woman into an alligator pit fast enough.

887
00:50:28.840 --> 00:50:31.360
<v Speaker 1>But I saw this yesterday and I don't know. Do

888
00:50:31.440 --> 00:50:33.280
<v Speaker 1>you remember the story back in the day where the

889
00:50:33.320 --> 00:50:35.800
<v Speaker 1>woman what was it a hamster or it was no,

890
00:50:35.840 --> 00:50:38.880
<v Speaker 1>it was a guinea pig, right, or I'm trying to

891
00:50:38.880 --> 00:50:41.360
<v Speaker 1>remember the first lady years ago she had like a

892
00:50:41.360 --> 00:50:43.960
<v Speaker 1>guinea pig, right, And she showed up for a flight

893
00:50:43.960 --> 00:50:46.079
<v Speaker 1>and they're like, you can't bring that on the flight, ma'am,

894
00:50:47.039 --> 00:50:51.280
<v Speaker 1>And they're like, uh, oh okay. And then remember she

895
00:50:51.360 --> 00:50:54.840
<v Speaker 1>went to the bathroom and murdered it. Yes, she thought

896
00:50:54.920 --> 00:50:58.599
<v Speaker 1>that was yeah, yeah, she flushed it down the toilet, right, yes, yes,

897
00:50:58.760 --> 00:51:01.079
<v Speaker 1>or attempted to, I think the toilet, which is how

898
00:51:01.079 --> 00:51:05.239
<v Speaker 1>they found it. So but it's just it just would

899
00:51:05.320 --> 00:51:07.639
<v Speaker 1>presented with the idea of maybe not making her flight,

900
00:51:08.119 --> 00:51:10.800
<v Speaker 1>having a rebook or something, she chose to drown her

901
00:51:10.840 --> 00:51:12.320
<v Speaker 1>emotional support guinea pig.

902
00:51:13.119 --> 00:51:15.199
<v Speaker 2>Really, this is a little Peggy. She's so important to me

903
00:51:15.239 --> 00:51:17.280
<v Speaker 2>and I can't go anywhere without Peggy.

904
00:51:17.519 --> 00:51:18.760
<v Speaker 1>Well, I love her, I love her.

905
00:51:18.760 --> 00:51:21.320
<v Speaker 2>Well, you can't get on the plane. Can I catch

906
00:51:21.360 --> 00:51:23.960
<v Speaker 2>your rebooks? It's the bathroom, real fat?

907
00:51:25.280 --> 00:51:27.159
<v Speaker 1>I shouldn't laugh at it's just it's just, you know,

908
00:51:27.159 --> 00:51:28.800
<v Speaker 1>it's it's future serial killers stuff.

909
00:51:28.800 --> 00:51:29.639
<v Speaker 2>Where'd Peggy go?

910
00:51:30.559 --> 00:51:32.679
<v Speaker 1>So I would have assumed that would be a one off.

911
00:51:32.880 --> 00:51:38.079
<v Speaker 1>I was wrong. So a woman in Florida was arrested.

912
00:51:38.400 --> 00:51:43.559
<v Speaker 1>Her name is Alison Lawrence fifty seven. She was attempting

913
00:51:43.639 --> 00:51:48.320
<v Speaker 1>to enter the secure side of the Orlando Airport right so,

914
00:51:48.519 --> 00:51:52.119
<v Speaker 1>and TSA said she had her dog, And she said,

915
00:51:52.239 --> 00:51:55.559
<v Speaker 1>and she did not have the quote proper paperwork to

916
00:51:55.599 --> 00:51:57.840
<v Speaker 1>bring her dog. What does that look like. I've never

917
00:51:57.880 --> 00:51:59.599
<v Speaker 1>brought an animal, and I know a lot of you do,

918
00:51:59.679 --> 00:52:02.880
<v Speaker 1>because like whenever I'm flying, obviously people walking around with

919
00:52:02.920 --> 00:52:05.559
<v Speaker 1>their dogs that clearly are not support dogs because they're

920
00:52:05.599 --> 00:52:08.599
<v Speaker 1>just not behaved at all. But do you have what

921
00:52:08.679 --> 00:52:10.239
<v Speaker 1>kind of paperwork do you have to have to bring

922
00:52:10.280 --> 00:52:12.360
<v Speaker 1>a dog onto a plane? Do you know? ROSSI do

923
00:52:12.400 --> 00:52:14.760
<v Speaker 1>you know at all? You guys probably never tried to

924
00:52:14.800 --> 00:52:15.760
<v Speaker 1>fly with one. We did.

925
00:52:15.840 --> 00:52:18.239
<v Speaker 2>We flew with one of our chuahuas, and I can't

926
00:52:18.440 --> 00:52:20.239
<v Speaker 2>call with the process or what we had to do

927
00:52:20.360 --> 00:52:21.719
<v Speaker 2>to bring it on board, but I remember it was

928
00:52:21.719 --> 00:52:26.000
<v Speaker 2>a pain in the ass, like, okay, there's some paperwork process.

929
00:52:26.480 --> 00:52:27.960
<v Speaker 2>I remember we had the carrier and they looked through

930
00:52:27.960 --> 00:52:29.840
<v Speaker 2>the carrier, and they didn't want to because the chuaoa

931
00:52:29.960 --> 00:52:31.880
<v Speaker 2>was a crazy chiuahua and they were like to touch

932
00:52:31.920 --> 00:52:33.159
<v Speaker 2>this thing, I don't want to get a bit. But

933
00:52:33.800 --> 00:52:35.360
<v Speaker 2>we didn't like store it in the back. We had

934
00:52:35.400 --> 00:52:37.119
<v Speaker 2>her like because she was so tiny, like under our

935
00:52:37.400 --> 00:52:37.960
<v Speaker 2>end of the scene.

936
00:52:38.119 --> 00:52:41.199
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, that's it. I get that. Yeah.

937
00:52:41.239 --> 00:52:43.000
<v Speaker 1>And I again, I'd never flown with the pet, so

938
00:52:43.000 --> 00:52:45.400
<v Speaker 1>I don't know. Now, flying with guns, that's that's the

939
00:52:45.440 --> 00:52:47.360
<v Speaker 1>whole thing right there. Many of you have been through that,

940
00:52:49.400 --> 00:52:53.159
<v Speaker 1>and and this is and this sounds bad, uh, the

941
00:52:53.320 --> 00:52:55.800
<v Speaker 1>handful of times I've flown with firearms, because there's a

942
00:52:55.800 --> 00:52:59.760
<v Speaker 1>whole process. You got to go up obviously to you know,

943
00:52:59.800 --> 00:53:03.760
<v Speaker 1>the ticket counter, and you got to you gotta verifying,

944
00:53:03.840 --> 00:53:09.159
<v Speaker 1>certify it's unloaded, it's taken apart in certain circumstances. There's

945
00:53:09.440 --> 00:53:11.480
<v Speaker 1>the way that you pack them is very specific, and

946
00:53:11.519 --> 00:53:14.360
<v Speaker 1>then they have to visually see them, which means you

947
00:53:14.440 --> 00:53:16.480
<v Speaker 1>have to open a gun case with like one hundred

948
00:53:16.519 --> 00:53:18.920
<v Speaker 1>people standing there, you know, if it's a busy time

949
00:53:19.440 --> 00:53:21.840
<v Speaker 1>and it's really low, so people can see what's there.

950
00:53:21.840 --> 00:53:23.480
<v Speaker 1>Because you put it up where you put the luggage

951
00:53:23.519 --> 00:53:26.519
<v Speaker 1>to be checked, and you gotta work with whoever the

952
00:53:26.519 --> 00:53:32.519
<v Speaker 1>ticket agent is, and I profile man, cause the worst

953
00:53:32.519 --> 00:53:35.760
<v Speaker 1>case scenario is to get somebody who knows nothing about guns.

954
00:53:35.960 --> 00:53:39.280
<v Speaker 1>And like, I've had ticket agents look at like you,

955
00:53:39.440 --> 00:53:40.840
<v Speaker 1>why did you bring a gun in here? And I'm like,

956
00:53:41.000 --> 00:53:43.639
<v Speaker 1>is this so uncommon that you don't know this? So like,

957
00:53:43.800 --> 00:53:47.480
<v Speaker 1>if there's a dude over the age of forty, I'm sorry,

958
00:53:47.519 --> 00:53:50.360
<v Speaker 1>I'm profiling, and that's a ticket guy, I will try

959
00:53:50.400 --> 00:53:52.920
<v Speaker 1>to go to that ticket agent because then I know

960
00:53:52.960 --> 00:53:55.199
<v Speaker 1>the process. And then you go and then it goes

961
00:53:55.280 --> 00:53:58.920
<v Speaker 1>back to oversized luggage and then they have to give you.

962
00:53:58.960 --> 00:54:00.679
<v Speaker 1>They have to be like, all right, everything's okay from

963
00:54:00.719 --> 00:54:02.559
<v Speaker 1>the TSA guy and it's a whole process. But I

964
00:54:02.559 --> 00:54:05.239
<v Speaker 1>didn't know for pets, it was so learned something new

965
00:54:05.280 --> 00:54:08.519
<v Speaker 1>every day. Well, she didn't do the process. So she

966
00:54:08.559 --> 00:54:12.519
<v Speaker 1>had a decision to make instead of calling somebody to

967
00:54:12.519 --> 00:54:14.719
<v Speaker 1>pick up the And she lives in Orlando. This is

968
00:54:14.719 --> 00:54:16.719
<v Speaker 1>why this is so much worse. So she lives outside

969
00:54:16.719 --> 00:54:19.920
<v Speaker 1>of Orlando, but like this this is her She's departing

970
00:54:19.960 --> 00:54:25.519
<v Speaker 1>from her home city. So she decided, well, I'm going

971
00:54:25.599 --> 00:54:29.480
<v Speaker 1>to miss my flight. So she went to the restroom

972
00:54:30.199 --> 00:54:35.639
<v Speaker 1>and did what happened to the guinea pig? And you're

973
00:54:35.679 --> 00:54:40.719
<v Speaker 1>not flushing. It's not a small dog either, You're not.

974
00:54:40.920 --> 00:54:42.320
<v Speaker 1>I'm trying to remember. I think it was a mix,

975
00:54:42.400 --> 00:54:44.079
<v Speaker 1>but they described it as like a medium size.

976
00:54:44.440 --> 00:54:46.360
<v Speaker 2>Right, So she's going to prison and never flying in

977
00:54:46.400 --> 00:54:46.960
<v Speaker 2>a plane again.

978
00:54:47.039 --> 00:54:51.960
<v Speaker 1>Right, Well, I I she shouldn't be allowed in polite

979
00:54:51.960 --> 00:54:55.519
<v Speaker 1>society that you would go drown your pet because you

980
00:54:55.519 --> 00:54:59.000
<v Speaker 1>couldn't get on a plane. And you're in your hometown

981
00:54:59.039 --> 00:55:02.239
<v Speaker 1>where you know, reasonably you should have maybe known people

982
00:55:03.199 --> 00:55:06.079
<v Speaker 1>call somebody, hey, come pick up the dog, because if not,

983
00:55:06.519 --> 00:55:08.000
<v Speaker 1>I can't get on the plane. I gotta get on

984
00:55:08.000 --> 00:55:10.360
<v Speaker 1>this plane. I don't even know what her purpose of

985
00:55:10.400 --> 00:55:13.920
<v Speaker 1>flying was, but just the heartlessness. Do you remember do

986
00:55:13.920 --> 00:55:16.440
<v Speaker 1>you remember that video of that dog that somebody just

987
00:55:16.480 --> 00:55:18.000
<v Speaker 1>tied to the side of the road in front of

988
00:55:18.000 --> 00:55:21.440
<v Speaker 1>her the hurricane down to Florida last year, Like do

989
00:55:21.480 --> 00:55:24.000
<v Speaker 1>you remember Ron de Santis, like hunted that dude down.

990
00:55:25.440 --> 00:55:28.119
<v Speaker 1>They hunted that dude down, and they charged with everything

991
00:55:28.159 --> 00:55:33.559
<v Speaker 1>they could think of. This lunatic, this lunatic's and so

992
00:55:33.679 --> 00:55:35.760
<v Speaker 1>she does it and then just leaves the dog in

993
00:55:35.800 --> 00:55:40.880
<v Speaker 1>the stall there, just leaves the dog in there. So

994
00:55:40.920 --> 00:55:43.559
<v Speaker 1>then somebody goes into use the bathroom. You're like, holy hell,

995
00:55:43.599 --> 00:55:46.239
<v Speaker 1>can you imagine walking into an airport bathroom and then

996
00:55:46.280 --> 00:55:51.079
<v Speaker 1>that's in there. So they quickly, obviously were able to

997
00:55:51.119 --> 00:55:55.039
<v Speaker 1>figure this out because they have cameras. I don't know

998
00:55:55.079 --> 00:55:58.079
<v Speaker 1>if you know this, they have cameras and airports. And

999
00:55:58.159 --> 00:56:00.719
<v Speaker 1>also she then went and she was outside I had security,

1000
00:56:00.800 --> 00:56:02.360
<v Speaker 1>so they told her, no, you can't come through, you

1001
00:56:02.440 --> 00:56:05.000
<v Speaker 1>have your paperwork. She disappears for five minutes, comes back,

1002
00:56:05.079 --> 00:56:09.039
<v Speaker 1>no dog, do you did? Nobody wonder what happened to

1003
00:56:09.079 --> 00:56:11.960
<v Speaker 1>the dog? They like, five minutes is a really really

1004
00:56:12.000 --> 00:56:16.159
<v Speaker 1>short period of time to find somebody else to take it. Uh,

1005
00:56:16.199 --> 00:56:19.320
<v Speaker 1>and I guess they they had boarded the flight, but

1006
00:56:19.360 --> 00:56:23.840
<v Speaker 1>it had not taken off, so they snagged her obviously

1007
00:56:23.880 --> 00:56:26.400
<v Speaker 1>real quick. All right, yeah, throw her in the gator pit.

1008
00:56:27.559 --> 00:56:31.519
<v Speaker 1>That would be my recommendation. Former Philippines President Dwarte is

1009
00:56:31.559 --> 00:56:35.360
<v Speaker 1>on trial for crimes against humanity at the Hague. What

1010
00:56:35.360 --> 00:56:35.840
<v Speaker 1>would you do?

1011
00:56:35.920 --> 00:56:36.119
<v Speaker 5>Wait?

1012
00:56:36.239 --> 00:56:39.280
<v Speaker 1>Orders are shoot them dead?

1013
00:56:40.519 --> 00:56:40.840
<v Speaker 4>All right?

1014
00:56:41.280 --> 00:56:41.480
<v Speaker 2>Yeah?

1015
00:56:41.519 --> 00:56:43.679
<v Speaker 1>This guy is a Duarte is a bit of a

1016
00:56:43.679 --> 00:56:45.800
<v Speaker 1>one trick pony there, So what are you gonna do?

1017
00:56:45.840 --> 00:56:49.360
<v Speaker 1>All right? Uh? So let's do this. Uh oh, Ray

1018

<v Speaker 1>doesn't want to be with us, but Jeff mar from

1033
00:57:22.039 --> 00:57:23.920
<v Speaker 3>moves in overnight. We dropped a thirty nine with some

1034
00:57:23.960 --> 00:57:26.800
<v Speaker 3>brakes in the clouds. Sunday, breezy tomorrow up to sixty two,

1035
00:57:26.800 --> 00:57:29.840
<v Speaker 3>and then a beautiful weekend sunshine up on Saturday and

1036
00:57:29.840 --> 00:57:31.760
<v Speaker 3>Sunday with highs and the low seventies, and then another

1037
00:57:31.840 --> 00:57:33.239
<v Speaker 3>round of rain moves in to start off the week

1038
00:57:33.239 --> 00:57:35.639
<v Speaker 3>next Monday with a hip to seventy two degrees.

1039
00:57:36.079 --> 00:57:38.039
<v Speaker 1>All right, hey, Jeff, I'm gonna put you on hold

1040
00:57:38.039 --> 00:57:40.079
<v Speaker 1>because obviously we're having a little connection with the other

1041
00:57:40.119 --> 00:57:41.719
<v Speaker 1>thing and my producer wants to chat with you.

1042
00:57:41.880 --> 00:57:42.599
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, sounds good.

1043
00:57:42.599 --> 00:57:44.840
<v Speaker 1>Thank you for hanging on there, bro, all right, seven

1044
00:57:44.920 --> 00:57:47.320
<v Speaker 1>forty seven back in just a few we have another Rachel

1045
00:57:47.400 --> 00:57:50.119
<v Speaker 1>Zegler story. In fact, let me let me just go

1046
00:57:50.159 --> 00:57:52.960
<v Speaker 1>ahead and explain it real quick and that way we

1047
00:57:52.960 --> 00:57:55.920
<v Speaker 1>can just jump right into it. And by the way,

1048
00:57:56.039 --> 00:57:58.880
<v Speaker 1>this is what you all all you moonback signed up for,

1049
00:57:59.000 --> 00:58:04.320
<v Speaker 1>which makes this extra hilarious. So snow white actress Rachel Zegler,

1050
00:58:04.480 --> 00:58:06.639
<v Speaker 1>who I recently found out, by the way, ross that

1051
00:58:07.159 --> 00:58:09.800
<v Speaker 1>it's not they're not just mad at her in the US,

1052
00:58:09.840 --> 00:58:12.840
<v Speaker 1>apparently they're mad at her in other countries too. And

1053
00:58:12.920 --> 00:58:15.039
<v Speaker 1>the ticket sales, the pre sales are not going well

1054
00:58:16.239 --> 00:58:18.639
<v Speaker 1>and I did not even realize that. So like she's

1055
00:58:18.679 --> 00:58:21.519
<v Speaker 1>found a way to alienate like half the globe apparently.

1056
00:58:21.599 --> 00:58:24.599
<v Speaker 1>So we'll see how the movie does. But this is

1057
00:58:24.639 --> 00:58:28.599
<v Speaker 1>a different beef. So Rachel Zegler is complaining after she

1058
00:58:28.880 --> 00:58:33.800
<v Speaker 1>was asked by us, in this case Steven Spielberg, her

1059
00:58:33.840 --> 00:58:37.360
<v Speaker 1>producers along with Steven Spielberg for the production of West

1060
00:58:37.400 --> 00:58:40.119
<v Speaker 1>Side Story back in twenty twenty one that she was

1061
00:58:40.199 --> 00:58:42.960
<v Speaker 1>asked to prove her Latin heritage.

1062
00:58:43.000 --> 00:58:44.800
<v Speaker 2>Well, can you blame the studio?

1063
00:58:44.800 --> 00:58:46.639
<v Speaker 1>No, it is one hundred percent what they asked for.

1064
00:58:47.840 --> 00:58:50.239
<v Speaker 2>Yea, come for the longest time. Right, you have to

1065
00:58:50.239 --> 00:58:51.920
<v Speaker 2>be Latin to play a Latin American. You have to

1066
00:58:51.960 --> 00:58:53.239
<v Speaker 2>be black to be a Black Mary, you have to

1067
00:58:53.280 --> 00:58:55.320
<v Speaker 2>be like Irish to be an Irish and Asian, and

1068
00:58:55.519 --> 00:58:58.000
<v Speaker 2>the studios are like, dude, So if we don't do this,

1069
00:58:58.360 --> 00:59:00.320
<v Speaker 2>people are going to be protesting us, and they're going

1070
00:59:00.360 --> 00:59:01.880
<v Speaker 2>to make controversy surrounding our film.

1071
00:59:02.360 --> 00:59:04.440
<v Speaker 1>Right, I remember the twenty twenty one So this isn't

1072
00:59:04.519 --> 00:59:06.880
<v Speaker 1>like yesterday when this happened. This is right in the

1073
00:59:06.920 --> 00:59:07.639
<v Speaker 1>meat of all this.

1074
00:59:07.639 --> 00:59:09.639
<v Speaker 2>Ins right, because these moonbats are here. So if you

1075
00:59:09.639 --> 00:59:11.679
<v Speaker 2>don't hire somebody that's say, you know, Latin America to

1076
00:59:11.679 --> 00:59:13.719
<v Speaker 2>play this character, people are going to freak out on you.

1077
00:59:13.760 --> 00:59:14.679
<v Speaker 2>So they got to cover their ass.

1078
00:59:15.079 --> 00:59:18.840
<v Speaker 1>Remember the remember the ghost in the Shell thing with Johansson. Oh,

1079
00:59:18.880 --> 00:59:22.440
<v Speaker 1>they lost their damn mines over that, lost their damn mines.

1080
00:59:22.480 --> 00:59:24.400
<v Speaker 1>And the irony, of course is then they do race

1081
00:59:24.440 --> 00:59:27.280
<v Speaker 1>swapping too on stuff and that's okay.

1082
00:59:27.400 --> 00:59:28.599
<v Speaker 2>Oh, well that's completely different.

1083
00:59:28.719 --> 00:59:31.119
<v Speaker 1>That's a different thing. So this part where it's like,

1084
00:59:31.880 --> 00:59:35.559
<v Speaker 1>oh you can't you're not or what was the other

1085
00:59:35.559 --> 00:59:37.400
<v Speaker 1>thing too? Didn't they get mad at somebody for playing

1086
00:59:37.400 --> 00:59:40.840
<v Speaker 1>a gay character who wasn't gay? Yeah, And I'm like,

1087
00:59:41.039 --> 00:59:45.119
<v Speaker 1>what what are we doing here? How many gay characters

1088
00:59:45.119 --> 00:59:48.400
<v Speaker 1>have played straight characters? Wasn't that the whole thing with like,

1089
00:59:50.000 --> 00:59:52.159
<v Speaker 1>remember Le's do doogiy Howsard's real name?

1090
00:59:52.199 --> 00:59:54.280
<v Speaker 2>Why can't I remember Neil Patrick Harris?

1091
00:59:54.320 --> 00:59:57.440
<v Speaker 1>Neil Patrick Harris? What was his character on How I

1092
00:59:57.480 --> 01:00:02.199
<v Speaker 1>Met Your Mother? Like super straight? Yeah, the biggest manhor

1093
01:00:02.280 --> 01:00:04.840
<v Speaker 1>you've ever seen? That was and nobody cared because he

1094
01:00:04.960 --> 01:00:06.519
<v Speaker 1>was funny. It was a funny show.

1095
01:00:06.679 --> 01:00:08.320
<v Speaker 2>There's a thing that was saying, Hey, if you need

1096
01:00:08.360 --> 01:00:10.800
<v Speaker 2>to play somebody, there's an acting isn't a thing anymore?

1097
01:00:10.840 --> 01:00:13.119
<v Speaker 2>You can only know who you are? Can you imagine

1098
01:00:13.119 --> 01:00:15.480
<v Speaker 2>The Godfather if it wasn't James conn in the role

1099
01:00:15.480 --> 01:00:17.199
<v Speaker 2>of Sonny because he was not Italian?

1100
01:00:17.480 --> 01:00:21.480
<v Speaker 1>Because right, yeah, that's it. That's uh. And the was

1101
01:00:21.519 --> 01:00:23.880
<v Speaker 1>one other one I was just thinking of too, where

1102
01:00:23.880 --> 01:00:26.880
<v Speaker 1>they were getting what were they getting mad over? So yeah,

1103
01:00:27.039 --> 01:00:29.039
<v Speaker 1>I'm not surprised I asked you that and for you

1104
01:00:29.079 --> 01:00:31.840
<v Speaker 1>to be offended by it when you're clearly part of

1105
01:00:31.880 --> 01:00:35.199
<v Speaker 1>the woke insanity up there. Based on everything every interview

1106
01:00:35.199 --> 01:00:39.400
<v Speaker 1>I've ever seen you give, this is what you asked for.

1107
01:00:39.800 --> 01:00:42.159
<v Speaker 1>Now there is one exception, ross who you can only

1108
01:00:42.159 --> 01:00:45.079
<v Speaker 1>play for if you are that thing, and that's dwarves

1109
01:00:45.119 --> 01:00:47.119
<v Speaker 1>apparently right.

1110
01:00:47.719 --> 01:00:49.559
<v Speaker 2>Well, this is also funny. I mean I find that

1111
01:00:49.599 --> 01:00:53.119
<v Speaker 2>to be hilarious. Yeah, because themselves in these holes.

1112
01:00:53.440 --> 01:00:56.440
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, so you decide, you literally, because Peter dinklsh is

1113
01:00:56.519 --> 01:00:58.840
<v Speaker 1>having a day or whatever. You you put a bunch

1114
01:00:58.920 --> 01:01:02.599
<v Speaker 1>of a little people out of work. They're and they're

1115
01:01:02.639 --> 01:01:06.519
<v Speaker 1>mad as hell, believe it or not. And here's the deal, right,

1116
01:01:07.880 --> 01:01:09.840
<v Speaker 1>I'm sure they're probably not gonna be burning stuff, but

1117
01:01:10.039 --> 01:01:13.719
<v Speaker 1>there's a there is a schedule to be to coincide

1118
01:01:13.760 --> 01:01:16.880
<v Speaker 1>with the opening of the snow White film, a big

1119
01:01:17.280 --> 01:01:21.920
<v Speaker 1>dwarf protest. I'm assuming this is in la where they're

1120
01:01:21.920 --> 01:01:22.480
<v Speaker 1>going to be doing this.

1121
01:01:22.559 --> 01:01:24.440
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, Peter Dinklie right back in the day, he was

1122
01:01:24.519 --> 01:01:26.239
<v Speaker 2>pissed off and angry. It's like, how come you only

1123
01:01:26.320 --> 01:01:28.880
<v Speaker 2>hire us to play small you know, elves and dwarves

1124
01:01:28.920 --> 01:01:31.280
<v Speaker 2>and why you know we're more than that? And that's true.

1125
01:01:31.360 --> 01:01:33.639
<v Speaker 2>Then I can see that. So put them in other roles. However,

1126
01:01:33.679 --> 01:01:35.880
<v Speaker 2>when it comes to an actual elf dwarf, who better

1127
01:01:35.920 --> 01:01:36.559
<v Speaker 2>to play the role?

1128
01:01:37.920 --> 01:01:41.199
<v Speaker 1>And and and or if you can still make people

1129
01:01:41.320 --> 01:01:43.199
<v Speaker 1>like the Hobbit, you know, the hot lord of the

1130
01:01:43.280 --> 01:01:43.840
<v Speaker 1>Rings all that.

1131
01:01:44.000 --> 01:01:46.719
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, Fred Klus was the same way, right, exactly.

1132
01:01:47.000 --> 01:01:50.000
<v Speaker 1>You can make your camera angles, you can. Gandolf was

1133
01:01:50.039 --> 01:01:53.639
<v Speaker 1>not you know, twice the height of the actor who

1134
01:01:54.000 --> 01:01:54.760
<v Speaker 1>was the main actor in.

1135
01:01:54.760 --> 01:01:57.039
<v Speaker 2>The Hobbit and the actor who played Hagrid was an

1136
01:01:57.039 --> 01:01:58.039
<v Speaker 2>a giant half giant?

1137
01:01:58.280 --> 01:01:59.920
<v Speaker 1>What I thought? I thought that one was?

1138
01:02:00.639 --> 01:02:01.199
<v Speaker 2>Is he not a half?

1139
01:02:01.280 --> 01:02:01.480
<v Speaker 1>Job?

1140
01:02:01.519 --> 01:02:02.159
<v Speaker 2>Telling you was not?

1141
01:02:02.679 --> 01:02:04.920
<v Speaker 1>Oh wow, I did not know. Well, come in our

1171
01:03:15.559 --> 01:03:17.719
<v Speaker 1>a whole vibe over there, man. Where then they steal

1172
01:03:17.760 --> 01:03:19.639
<v Speaker 1>a bunch of those flags the other day over there,

1173
01:03:20.119 --> 01:03:21.119
<v Speaker 1>there's always.

1174
01:03:20.800 --> 01:03:24.559
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, there's there's always some thievery of Americana over at

1175
01:03:24.559 --> 01:03:27.920
<v Speaker 4>the Union Station. And there's always seems to be swastikas

1176
01:03:27.960 --> 01:03:30.599
<v Speaker 4>on the statue at Union Station. But it's never Nazis,

1177
01:03:30.599 --> 01:03:32.480
<v Speaker 4>you do it. It's just leftists.

1178
01:03:32.920 --> 01:03:35.199
<v Speaker 1>Well, hey man, they're just trying to help. But look,

1179
01:03:35.280 --> 01:03:37.159
<v Speaker 1>they think they're probably trying to help out. They're like,

1180
01:03:37.159 --> 01:03:38.960
<v Speaker 1>if you think somebody is a Nazi, you're doing them

1181
01:03:38.960 --> 01:03:41.239
<v Speaker 1>a favored drawn a swastika, right, because that's their jam.

1182
01:03:41.360 --> 01:03:44.039
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, there's just there's never been so many swastikas all

1183
01:03:44.199 --> 01:03:47.119
<v Speaker 4>across America, and there just seems to be non Nazis

1184
01:03:47.199 --> 01:03:47.480
<v Speaker 4>doing it.

1185
01:03:48.239 --> 01:03:50.599
<v Speaker 1>Do you think it's weird that, like we're like we

1186
01:03:50.679 --> 01:03:53.679
<v Speaker 1>had like three or four more videos that emerged yesterday.

1187
01:03:53.920 --> 01:03:57.599
<v Speaker 1>Is nobody figured out what century Mode is among the

1188
01:03:57.599 --> 01:04:02.199
<v Speaker 1>the clinically insane left, because like we have videos, like

1189
01:04:02.280 --> 01:04:04.800
<v Speaker 1>good videos, like, yeah, the last thing I would do

1190
01:04:04.920 --> 01:04:09.920
<v Speaker 1>right now is to face a tesla because yeah, there's yeah,

1191
01:04:09.960 --> 01:04:11.519
<v Speaker 1>they're filming you. They know they're filming you.

1192
01:04:12.400 --> 01:04:15.559
<v Speaker 4>I love that these people are not sending their best.

1193
01:04:16.000 --> 01:04:19.280
<v Speaker 1>No, that's fine, that's oh. And then one woman to

1194
01:04:19.360 --> 01:04:21.639
<v Speaker 1>faced a Rivian because she didn't know it wasn't a tesla.

1195
01:04:21.760 --> 01:04:24.960
<v Speaker 1>So that proves your point right there. All right, well,

1196
01:04:25.000 --> 01:04:27.199
<v Speaker 1>let's get into let's get into a couple of things

1197
01:04:27.639 --> 01:04:29.639
<v Speaker 1>we were in fact, let's start with the Zegler thing.

1198
01:04:29.679 --> 01:04:32.920
<v Speaker 1>We're just talking about this. Of course, you know, the

1199
01:04:33.000 --> 01:04:36.199
<v Speaker 1>last thing she needs is to have any more bad

1200
01:04:36.280 --> 01:04:39.719
<v Speaker 1>press at the moment. But here we are and it's

1201
01:04:39.760 --> 01:04:43.039
<v Speaker 1>not even about snow White. So Rachel Zegler is upset

1202
01:04:43.119 --> 01:04:46.360
<v Speaker 1>because back in twenty twenty one, when Steven Spielberg's West

1203
01:04:46.400 --> 01:04:51.280
<v Speaker 1>Side Story was being made during comcastine, the producers said

1204
01:04:51.280 --> 01:04:55.760
<v Speaker 1>that she had to prove her Latin heritage. You know,

1205
01:04:55.880 --> 01:04:59.199
<v Speaker 1>obviously in West Side Story there are there's Latin characters.

1206
01:04:59.239 --> 01:05:02.079
<v Speaker 1>It is a lot of them. And she said, I

1207
01:05:02.119 --> 01:05:05.519
<v Speaker 1>can't believe it. I'm so offended. These are the rules

1208
01:05:05.559 --> 01:05:08.400
<v Speaker 1>that she and her other woke ilk have forced upon

1209
01:05:08.480 --> 01:05:10.440
<v Speaker 1>themselves and now they're upset over it.

1210
01:05:11.760 --> 01:05:14.440
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, so this is really interesting. They're going to treat

1211
01:05:14.480 --> 01:05:17.280
<v Speaker 4>this sort of like, you know, the Gestapo asking for

1212
01:05:17.360 --> 01:05:20.920
<v Speaker 4>your papers please. But if you really look at the

1213
01:05:21.440 --> 01:05:24.800
<v Speaker 4>language and the attitudes of the left on identity, there's

1214
01:05:24.840 --> 01:05:28.679
<v Speaker 4>this movement in the pop culture scene and the entertainment world.

1215
01:05:28.760 --> 01:05:32.840
<v Speaker 4>It's it's representation matters. The idea that if you're going

1216
01:05:32.920 --> 01:05:35.440
<v Speaker 4>to have a Native American character, if you're going to

1217
01:05:35.480 --> 01:05:38.480
<v Speaker 4>have some sort of you know, Irish character, whatever, that

1218
01:05:38.559 --> 01:05:41.679
<v Speaker 4>you need to actually be that person. So straight people

1219
01:05:41.719 --> 01:05:44.480
<v Speaker 4>can't play gay people. Gay people can't play straight people.

1220
01:05:44.760 --> 01:05:46.480
<v Speaker 4>Which would put a lot of people in holly without

1221
01:05:46.480 --> 01:05:49.280
<v Speaker 4>of work, by the way, and so if you're going

1222
01:05:49.320 --> 01:05:52.599
<v Speaker 4>to believe this, then you're going to have to go

1223
01:05:52.679 --> 01:05:56.239
<v Speaker 4>beyond taking people at their word. You know, Studios spend

1224
01:05:56.320 --> 01:06:00.360
<v Speaker 4>millions of dollars, theaters spend millions of dollars from romoting

1225
01:06:00.840 --> 01:06:04.599
<v Speaker 4>their new movies, promoting their plays, putting together marketing. And

1226
01:06:04.719 --> 01:06:08.239
<v Speaker 4>imagine the scandal that would unleash if somebody lied about

1227
01:06:08.239 --> 01:06:10.679
<v Speaker 4>their heritage to get a certain role and then they

1228
01:06:10.679 --> 01:06:13.519
<v Speaker 4>have to do damage control on it, which means Steven

1229
01:06:13.559 --> 01:06:18.519
<v Speaker 4>Spielberg did the simple and wise thing, which is going, okay,

1230
01:06:19.639 --> 01:06:23.239
<v Speaker 4>present your heritage paperwork, like, tell me that you are

1231
01:06:23.679 --> 01:06:25.639
<v Speaker 4>the ethnicity that you say you are and that you

1232
01:06:25.679 --> 01:06:29.079
<v Speaker 4>have those roots. This is the logical outcome of representation

1233
01:06:29.320 --> 01:06:30.519
<v Speaker 4>matters as a movement.

1234
01:06:31.519 --> 01:06:34.800
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, and I don't know, And we're looking at we're

1235
01:06:34.840 --> 01:06:37.199
<v Speaker 1>looking at some examples that really kicked this off, and

1236
01:06:37.239 --> 01:06:39.199
<v Speaker 1>I think probably the one that I remember that was

1237
01:06:39.239 --> 01:06:43.320
<v Speaker 1>the biggest was Ghost in the Shell, right they can Yeah, Yeah,

1238
01:06:43.320 --> 01:06:47.400
<v Speaker 1>they were really upset. And admittedly I was never into that.

1239
01:06:48.280 --> 01:06:51.039
<v Speaker 1>Was it was it a manga? What was Ghost in

1240
01:06:51.039 --> 01:06:51.360
<v Speaker 1>the show?

1241
01:06:51.480 --> 01:06:51.719
<v Speaker 3>Yeah?

1242
01:06:52.000 --> 01:06:53.519
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, yeah, I was an anime a manga.

1243
01:06:54.079 --> 01:06:56.440
<v Speaker 1>Yeah I was. I've never into it, and so it

1244
01:06:56.519 --> 01:06:59.079
<v Speaker 1>was like I saw people making these nerdy arguments. So

1245
01:06:59.079 --> 01:07:00.960
<v Speaker 1>I don't even know what the what the truth was.

1246
01:07:01.000 --> 01:07:04.719
<v Speaker 1>But if you watch the movie, the if you haven't

1247
01:07:04.719 --> 01:07:08.199
<v Speaker 1>watched the movie, it's not really a person per se.

1248
01:07:08.360 --> 01:07:10.679
<v Speaker 1>So the whole thing gets very complicated.

1249
01:07:10.719 --> 01:07:12.559
<v Speaker 4>That's interesting because one of the one of the big

1250
01:07:12.599 --> 01:07:16.280
<v Speaker 4>standout ones I remember was the live action Aladdin movie

1251
01:07:16.480 --> 01:07:18.800
<v Speaker 4>set off a lot of people in this movement to

1252
01:07:19.039 --> 01:07:23.159
<v Speaker 4>care about this representation issue because the woman who played Jasmine,

1253
01:07:24.360 --> 01:07:26.119
<v Speaker 4>I'm gonna get this a little bit wrong here, but

1254
01:07:26.199 --> 01:07:30.239
<v Speaker 4>she is she's like to believe kimdy or Indian and

1255
01:07:30.320 --> 01:07:34.639
<v Speaker 4>she is not actually not actually Persian. So you know

1256
01:07:34.840 --> 01:07:37.719
<v Speaker 4>that were.

1257
01:07:37.679 --> 01:07:41.360
<v Speaker 1>They upset about? Uh? Uh? Was it? Were they upset

1258
01:07:41.400 --> 01:07:44.719
<v Speaker 1>with will Smith? I mean, I'm just thinking think about

1259
01:07:44.760 --> 01:07:46.960
<v Speaker 1>this though, to think about go back to the original

1260
01:07:46.960 --> 01:07:50.400
<v Speaker 1>animated Aladdin. How much worse would that movie have ben

1261
01:07:50.920 --> 01:07:53.960
<v Speaker 1>if not the very famous man who played the genie,

1262
01:07:54.000 --> 01:07:57.280
<v Speaker 1>at least the voice actor part of the genie. Like, yeah,

1263
01:07:57.960 --> 01:07:59.639
<v Speaker 1>you can tell Robert Williams, you can't do that with

1264
01:07:59.760 --> 01:08:02.840
<v Speaker 1>what what is wrong with these people? And this is

1265
01:08:02.960 --> 01:08:05.920
<v Speaker 1>just one of the things that they have thrust upon themselves, right,

1266
01:08:06.000 --> 01:08:08.639
<v Speaker 1>because right now in Hollywood, if you want to make

1267
01:08:08.679 --> 01:08:14.079
<v Speaker 1>a movie that is even eligible for OSCAR consideration, you

1268
01:08:14.360 --> 01:08:18.159
<v Speaker 1>have to have quote unquote representation, and I think it's

1269
01:08:18.159 --> 01:08:20.520
<v Speaker 1>a percentage of the people working on the movie. There's

1270
01:08:20.520 --> 01:08:25.399
<v Speaker 1>certain parameters, right. And I remember the guys who produced

1271
01:08:25.399 --> 01:08:30.159
<v Speaker 1>that what was it the nineteen nineteen eighteen was that

1272
01:08:30.239 --> 01:08:32.640
<v Speaker 1>the movie the World War One movie that did very well? Yeah,

1273
01:08:32.720 --> 01:08:37.680
<v Speaker 1>nineteen nineteen seventeen. I remember they were getting a little

1274
01:08:37.680 --> 01:08:41.279
<v Speaker 1>grief for it for not having they didn't have enough

1275
01:08:41.319 --> 01:08:46.960
<v Speaker 1>black actors among the one people. And then also these

1276
01:08:47.000 --> 01:08:49.439
<v Speaker 1>guys who produced a film last year that's set in

1277
01:08:49.520 --> 01:08:54.720
<v Speaker 1>like Denmark in the fifteen hundreds, they were ineligible for consideration.

1278
01:08:54.840 --> 01:08:57.880
<v Speaker 1>And the guys like, it's a real movie set in

1279
01:08:57.920 --> 01:09:01.000
<v Speaker 1>the fifteen hundreds in Denmark, What do you want us

1280
01:09:01.039 --> 01:09:01.319
<v Speaker 1>to do?

1281
01:09:02.560 --> 01:09:02.800
<v Speaker 3>Yeah?

1282
01:09:02.840 --> 01:09:05.119
<v Speaker 4>There is, And you know the Dennis Quaid or not

1283
01:09:05.199 --> 01:09:07.279
<v Speaker 4>Dennis Quaid. I'm trying to remember the actor you just

1284
01:09:07.319 --> 01:09:11.239
<v Speaker 4>played Reagan. That was Dennis Quaid, Right. The Reagan movie

1285
01:09:11.399 --> 01:09:15.319
<v Speaker 4>was disqualified for many Academy Award recommendations this year because

1286
01:09:15.359 --> 01:09:18.880
<v Speaker 4>they didn't meet the diversity metrics of the Academy, both

1287
01:09:18.920 --> 01:09:23.680
<v Speaker 4>for the staff and the crew and the actors who

1288
01:09:23.680 --> 01:09:26.439
<v Speaker 4>are represented across the movie. And so this is just

1289
01:09:26.520 --> 01:09:28.920
<v Speaker 4>kind of the chaos you get when you believe this stuff.

1290
01:09:28.960 --> 01:09:31.760
<v Speaker 4>And you know, for Rachel Zeggler, you know, my question

1291
01:09:31.840 --> 01:09:33.800
<v Speaker 4>to her would be, is this really the world you

1292
01:09:33.840 --> 01:09:35.960
<v Speaker 4>want to live in? Because you say that you want

1293
01:09:35.960 --> 01:09:38.520
<v Speaker 4>to live in a world where only people who fit

1294
01:09:38.640 --> 01:09:41.840
<v Speaker 4>certain characteristics can play certain roles. But that is going

1295
01:09:41.920 --> 01:09:44.479
<v Speaker 4>to require going beyond the honor system. You can't just

1296
01:09:44.479 --> 01:09:46.359
<v Speaker 4>take people with their word on these things. And so

1297
01:09:46.479 --> 01:09:48.720
<v Speaker 4>you are suggesting that we have a world in which

1298
01:09:48.760 --> 01:09:53.319
<v Speaker 4>people present their ethnic paperwork or whatever that is in

1299
01:09:53.399 --> 01:09:56.319
<v Speaker 4>order to get jobs. This is taking us backwards and

1300
01:09:56.319 --> 01:09:57.920
<v Speaker 4>we need to run like hell from this.

1301
01:09:58.600 --> 01:10:01.680
<v Speaker 1>Well, Hollywood, go, Hollywood, all right, let me hit something

1302
01:10:01.680 --> 01:10:06.800
<v Speaker 1>a little closer to home. Obviously, here we go March madness, insanity.

1303
01:10:06.840 --> 01:10:08.960
<v Speaker 1>We had to play at the play ins. We're getting

1304
01:10:09.000 --> 01:10:11.640
<v Speaker 1>to the games here shortly. Actually, we've got a whole

1305
01:10:11.680 --> 01:10:15.079
<v Speaker 1>host of games coming up today. And North Carolina last

1306
01:10:15.159 --> 01:10:18.800
<v Speaker 1>year joined the world of sports betting as many states have,

1307
01:10:19.000 --> 01:10:22.000
<v Speaker 1>although many states haven't and they don't want any part

1308
01:10:22.000 --> 01:10:25.479
<v Speaker 1>of it now, wrote a piece here that Ross shared

1309
01:10:25.520 --> 01:10:29.680
<v Speaker 1>with me yesterday and talking about state bans on sports betting.

1310
01:10:30.520 --> 01:10:32.760
<v Speaker 1>You know, there are some people who don't like it

1311
01:10:32.800 --> 01:10:34.880
<v Speaker 1>for the purity of the sport. To those, I would

1312
01:10:34.880 --> 01:10:38.039
<v Speaker 1>say I have long been able to bet on sports

1313
01:10:38.039 --> 01:10:42.840
<v Speaker 1>in North Carolina prior to this because people whether it's

1314
01:10:42.840 --> 01:10:44.399
<v Speaker 1>a will, there's a way, or you bet with your

1315
01:10:44.399 --> 01:10:47.600
<v Speaker 1>friends or however it works. So now that we had

1316
01:10:47.640 --> 01:10:50.199
<v Speaker 1>a few states, we've had a few years to see

1317
01:10:50.199 --> 01:10:52.159
<v Speaker 1>what this looks like, and we've seen the evolution of

1318
01:10:52.159 --> 01:10:55.800
<v Speaker 1>what's going on with sports with name, image likeness. Some

1319
01:10:55.840 --> 01:10:59.159
<v Speaker 1>people aren't liking what they're seeing. So what was your

1320
01:10:59.159 --> 01:11:01.960
<v Speaker 1>piece about. Let's talk about that and why should states

1321
01:11:02.000 --> 01:11:04.640
<v Speaker 1>maybe reconsider who don't want a piece of this pie?

1322
01:11:05.079 --> 01:11:07.760
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, well that piece is called state bans on sports

1323
01:11:07.800 --> 01:11:11.159
<v Speaker 4>betting aren't helping anybody. That's over real clear politics. And

1324
01:11:11.159 --> 01:11:15.159
<v Speaker 4>it's republished on zero Heads here today, and you know

1325
01:11:15.199 --> 01:11:19.239
<v Speaker 4>the basics of that piece or that Georgia just recently

1326
01:11:19.279 --> 01:11:23.239
<v Speaker 4>declined to join North Carolina in having a legal sports

1327
01:11:23.239 --> 01:11:25.560
<v Speaker 4>betting market. They were going to try and pass it

1328
01:11:25.600 --> 01:11:28.960
<v Speaker 4>by voter referendum, but the state legislature set it down

1329
01:11:29.000 --> 01:11:31.880
<v Speaker 4>and we still have Texas and California and not participating

1330
01:11:31.920 --> 01:11:37.159
<v Speaker 4>in sports betting. And there is overwhelming evidence based on

1331
01:11:37.199 --> 01:11:40.119
<v Speaker 4>the revenues and analytics of sites like Bovada and the

1332
01:11:40.239 --> 01:11:44.760
<v Speaker 4>overseas unregulated sports betting site based in Costa Rica, where

1333
01:11:44.760 --> 01:11:47.560
<v Speaker 4>they will take cryptocurrency, they will take credit cards, they

1334
01:11:47.560 --> 01:11:50.039
<v Speaker 4>will maybe take their left foot if you bet on that,

1335
01:11:51.119 --> 01:11:55.479
<v Speaker 4>that those sites are gobbling up the market share and dominating,

1336
01:11:55.560 --> 01:11:59.680
<v Speaker 4>I mean dominated fan duel and draft kings. And I

1337
01:11:59.680 --> 01:12:03.079
<v Speaker 4>think that is by just sheer population numbers of California

1338
01:12:03.119 --> 01:12:05.920
<v Speaker 4>and Texas where there is no legal betting market, So

1339
01:12:06.000 --> 01:12:09.479
<v Speaker 4>the numbers are getting wrung up really really big for

1340
01:12:09.560 --> 01:12:12.399
<v Speaker 4>sites like Bovada and a lot of their other you know,

1341
01:12:13.199 --> 01:12:17.119
<v Speaker 4>similar sites based overseas where you can place all sorts

1342
01:12:17.119 --> 01:12:20.279
<v Speaker 4>of ilicit bets and get into real big trouble financially

1343
01:12:21.319 --> 01:12:22.720
<v Speaker 4>outside of the regulated market.

1344
01:12:23.119 --> 01:12:25.920
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, Cayman Islands actually has a couple, They have a

1345
01:12:26.000 --> 01:12:28.720
<v Speaker 1>couple of the really big ones that people would use,

1346
01:12:29.399 --> 01:12:33.560
<v Speaker 1>you know, prior to the legal sports betting. And as

1347
01:12:33.600 --> 01:12:36.399
<v Speaker 1>shady as some of it sounds, it really like it

1348
01:12:36.520 --> 01:12:39.720
<v Speaker 1>presented as something that was really polished and put together,

1349
01:12:39.800 --> 01:12:41.520
<v Speaker 1>like if you go, if you check out these sites,

1350
01:12:41.520 --> 01:12:44.199
<v Speaker 1>these overseas sites, which obviously have lost a lot of share.

1351
01:12:45.600 --> 01:12:49.800
<v Speaker 1>It wasn't it didn't look sketchy. It looked very professional,

1352
01:12:50.000 --> 01:12:52.439
<v Speaker 1>and they would pay you out and because you had

1353
01:12:52.479 --> 01:12:55.239
<v Speaker 1>to have that confidence, so they built these big brands there.

1354
01:12:55.560 --> 01:12:58.319
<v Speaker 1>So it is it's you know, clearly was possible in

1355
01:12:58.319 --> 01:13:00.760
<v Speaker 1>a state like Califly like Tech. I guess I kind

1356
01:13:00.800 --> 01:13:04.039
<v Speaker 1>of understand they're a little different, But California, they've never

1357
01:13:04.119 --> 01:13:06.119
<v Speaker 1>met some way to get tax dollars out of you.

1358
01:13:06.199 --> 01:13:09.680
<v Speaker 1>They've never wanted to do. So why is California not

1359
01:13:09.800 --> 01:13:10.199
<v Speaker 1>doing this?

1360
01:13:11.279 --> 01:13:13.640
<v Speaker 4>You know, I actually am kind of baffled by it. Really,

1361
01:13:13.720 --> 01:13:17.239
<v Speaker 4>California seems like the kind of anything goes place that

1362
01:13:17.279 --> 01:13:22.000
<v Speaker 4>would would rush actually to have legal sports betting as

1363
01:13:22.000 --> 01:13:24.119
<v Speaker 4>well as all sorts of other kinds of gambling. I mean,

1364
01:13:24.119 --> 01:13:26.479
<v Speaker 4>it's a state that seems to believe pretty strongly in

1365
01:13:26.520 --> 01:13:29.399
<v Speaker 4>what we would call vice. You know, these sort of

1366
01:13:29.439 --> 01:13:34.439
<v Speaker 4>behaviors that we don't really condone of societally, but we

1367
01:13:34.520 --> 01:13:36.880
<v Speaker 4>want people to do them in the least harmful way

1368
01:13:36.960 --> 01:13:39.640
<v Speaker 4>possible and in the light of day, and try to

1369
01:13:39.640 --> 01:13:43.840
<v Speaker 4>prohibit block black markets from dominating these things. And so yes,

1370
01:13:43.920 --> 01:13:46.479
<v Speaker 4>California and Texas don't have these things. And you know,

1371
01:13:46.520 --> 01:13:48.680
<v Speaker 4>what you have is a lot of sort of B

1372
01:13:48.880 --> 01:13:52.479
<v Speaker 4>and C less celebrities being spokespeople for these overseas sides.

1373
01:13:52.520 --> 01:13:55.800
<v Speaker 4>I can't remember which one Ryan Seacrest does ads for,

1374
01:13:56.359 --> 01:13:58.319
<v Speaker 4>but you know that's kind of a dynamic you have.

1375
01:13:58.399 --> 01:14:01.079
<v Speaker 4>You have Charles Barkley doing UF I think it was

1376
01:14:01.119 --> 01:14:03.399
<v Speaker 4>the Fan Duel. You know, he's more well known through

1377
01:14:03.560 --> 01:14:04.399
<v Speaker 4>ESPN these days.

1378
01:14:04.840 --> 01:14:05.760
<v Speaker 1>Just full disclosure.

1379
01:14:05.840 --> 01:14:06.119
<v Speaker 3>I do.

1380
01:14:06.800 --> 01:14:09.800
<v Speaker 1>I do endorseed draftings, so people have probably heard the

1381
01:14:09.920 --> 01:14:12.319
<v Speaker 1>spots there and that's that's the one that I like.

1382
01:14:12.439 --> 01:14:15.600
<v Speaker 1>So but I just full disclosures that we're talking about this.

1383
01:14:15.680 --> 01:14:17.520
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, and that's and that's good to know. And you know,

1384
01:14:17.720 --> 01:14:20.800
<v Speaker 4>most most sports betters are pretty well to do in

1385
01:14:20.880 --> 01:14:24.279
<v Speaker 4>terms of their income. They only spend about under one

1386
01:14:24.319 --> 01:14:27.199
<v Speaker 4>hundred dollars per months. And then you of course have

1387
01:14:27.399 --> 01:14:29.680
<v Speaker 4>this sort of two to three percent of people who

1388
01:14:29.680 --> 01:14:33.439
<v Speaker 4>are problem betters, who are at addicts to gambling. And

1389
01:14:33.520 --> 01:14:37.279
<v Speaker 4>those people have always exists, will always continue to be there.

1390
01:14:37.600 --> 01:14:39.680
<v Speaker 4>And so the sort of the debate that's being had

1391
01:14:39.680 --> 01:14:44.720
<v Speaker 4>across the States is is legalization and regulation creating more addiction?

1392
01:14:44.960 --> 01:14:49.840
<v Speaker 4>And that evidence is incredibly unclear at this time. A

1393
01:14:49.880 --> 01:14:54.000
<v Speaker 4>lot of proponents of keeping sports betting illegal are looking

1394
01:14:54.079 --> 01:14:58.840
<v Speaker 4>at calls, addiction hotlines, and Google searches for help with

1395
01:14:58.960 --> 01:15:02.520
<v Speaker 4>problem gambling. But those aren't really good indicators that if

1396
01:15:02.600 --> 01:15:06.119
<v Speaker 4>people actually are having a major problem, or if they

1397
01:15:06.199 --> 01:15:09.600
<v Speaker 4>just suspect they might like gambling more than they wish

1398
01:15:09.680 --> 01:15:11.039
<v Speaker 4>they did, you know what I mean?

1399
01:15:11.479 --> 01:15:15.039
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, no one percent man. And you know here's the

1400
01:15:15.079 --> 01:15:18.359
<v Speaker 1>thing too, it's those people didn't just develop an addiction,

1401
01:15:19.359 --> 01:15:21.279
<v Speaker 1>you know, So maybe some of the younger said, I've

1402
01:15:21.279 --> 01:15:24.680
<v Speaker 1>seen some troubling stories with kids. They have an eighteen

1403
01:15:24.800 --> 01:15:28.840
<v Speaker 1>or nineteen year old that somehow stole like five hundred

1404
01:15:28.840 --> 01:15:33.000
<v Speaker 1>thousand dollars out of his grandmother's accounts and then just blew. So, yes,

1405
01:15:33.039 --> 01:15:35.279
<v Speaker 1>you're gonna have those issues. But I would remind people

1406
01:15:35.319 --> 01:15:38.119
<v Speaker 1>that gambling is not new in the state of North Carolina.

1407
01:15:38.159 --> 01:15:40.039
<v Speaker 1>Of course, they had the machines where you could go

1408
01:15:40.119 --> 01:15:42.199
<v Speaker 1>and that was a whole fight. But the state lottery

1409
01:15:42.279 --> 01:15:45.039
<v Speaker 1>for the kids, right, which I question whether the money

1410
01:15:45.039 --> 01:15:48.439
<v Speaker 1>gets there. That's been around for a minute, so it's

1411
01:15:48.479 --> 01:15:49.840
<v Speaker 1>not like it was a brand new thing.

1412
01:15:50.359 --> 01:15:50.560
<v Speaker 3>You know.

1413
01:15:50.600 --> 01:15:53.039
<v Speaker 1>Wyoming had no gambling where I grew up, except for

1414
01:15:53.119 --> 01:15:55.960
<v Speaker 1>the Indian casinos they had. They did no state lottery,

1415
01:15:56.079 --> 01:15:58.000
<v Speaker 1>no nothing. The whole time I was there, think were

1416
01:15:58.039 --> 01:15:59.560
<v Speaker 1>the only state not to have anything.

1417
01:16:00.600 --> 01:16:02.880
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, that's and that should always be in air quotes,

1418
01:16:02.920 --> 01:16:06.479
<v Speaker 4>though no gambling in air quotes because those of course

1419
01:16:06.560 --> 01:16:07.640
<v Speaker 4>always gambling occurring.

1420
01:16:07.680 --> 01:16:08.560
<v Speaker 3>In Georgia.

1421
01:16:09.359 --> 01:16:13.279
<v Speaker 4>The market for illegally placed sports vets last year was

1422
01:16:13.359 --> 01:16:17.680
<v Speaker 4>four point eight billion dollars flowing out of Georgia to

1423
01:16:17.800 --> 01:16:20.000
<v Speaker 4>oversee sites. And so it's just we need to get

1424
01:16:20.039 --> 01:16:22.560
<v Speaker 4>real about I get the folks who don't like that,

1425
01:16:22.640 --> 01:16:24.800
<v Speaker 4>this is now a world where you can pretty much

1426
01:16:24.840 --> 01:16:27.079
<v Speaker 4>just sit down on the couch and you bet your

1427
01:16:27.079 --> 01:16:29.680
<v Speaker 4>life away in all sorts of different ways, rather than

1428
01:16:29.720 --> 01:16:32.039
<v Speaker 4>going to a brick and mortar casino. But this is

1429
01:16:32.119 --> 01:16:34.680
<v Speaker 4>reality even with just a VPN. If your state were

1430
01:16:34.720 --> 01:16:37.640
<v Speaker 4>to block access to these sites, like you know, some

1431
01:16:37.720 --> 01:16:40.800
<v Speaker 4>other sites that are considered illicit get blocked in different

1432
01:16:40.800 --> 01:16:44.079
<v Speaker 4>states like Virginia. It takes just a couple of clicks

1433
01:16:44.079 --> 01:16:47.159
<v Speaker 4>to land yourself on these sites and do whatever you want,

1434
01:16:47.720 --> 01:16:50.479
<v Speaker 4>and so you have to provide people in your state

1435
01:16:51.079 --> 01:16:54.600
<v Speaker 4>the best possible option. Sites that regulate the use of

1436
01:16:54.640 --> 01:16:59.239
<v Speaker 4>credit cards don't allow cryptocurrency allow you to ban yourself

1437
01:16:59.359 --> 01:17:01.279
<v Speaker 4>from betting if you think that you have a problem

1438
01:17:01.359 --> 01:17:03.840
<v Speaker 4>when you say it's like New Jersey, New York, they

1439
01:17:03.840 --> 01:17:06.079
<v Speaker 4>have these sort of provisions where you can put yourself

1440
01:17:06.079 --> 01:17:08.680
<v Speaker 4>on a no go list or all the legal betting

1441
01:17:08.960 --> 01:17:12.079
<v Speaker 4>all the legal betting sites will deny you the ability

1442
01:17:12.079 --> 01:17:15.319
<v Speaker 4>to create an account. But that again doesn't really solve

1443
01:17:15.359 --> 01:17:19.079
<v Speaker 4>the problem which can't be solved of overseas betting sites,

1444
01:17:19.119 --> 01:17:20.239
<v Speaker 4>which they can still get to.

1445
01:17:20.840 --> 01:17:22.520
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I just we get a minute left. I will

1446
01:17:22.520 --> 01:17:24.920
<v Speaker 1>tell you the one thing that I don't like about

1447
01:17:25.119 --> 01:17:28.359
<v Speaker 1>UH or I'm uncomfortable with and H, and that is

1448
01:17:28.760 --> 01:17:31.840
<v Speaker 1>anybody who's involved in the actual production of a sporting

1449
01:17:31.880 --> 01:17:35.680
<v Speaker 1>event having a betting interest, like ESPN is the prime

1450
01:17:35.720 --> 01:17:39.119
<v Speaker 1>example here. Yeah, well like the refs Russ said no,

1451
01:17:39.800 --> 01:17:42.800
<v Speaker 1>maybe yeah, But like that's that's where I get uncomfortable

1452
01:17:42.800 --> 01:17:45.640
<v Speaker 1>because ESPN feasibly since they have all the crews that

1453
01:17:45.640 --> 01:17:48.079
<v Speaker 1>are on the field for these games, for these whatever

1454
01:17:48.119 --> 01:17:51.119
<v Speaker 1>they are. I think that's where there is some uncomfortability.

1455
01:17:51.159 --> 01:17:55.000
<v Speaker 1>But so far, I think people it hasn't gotten bad.

1456
01:17:55.079 --> 01:17:57.079
<v Speaker 1>But we'll keep an eye. We're going to tweet out

1457
01:17:57.119 --> 01:17:59.960
<v Speaker 1>a link to that story for you. So Ross will

1458
01:18:00.119 --> 01:18:02.479
<v Speaker 1>do that, so folks can go at Casey on the radio,

1459
01:18:02.520 --> 01:18:04.239
<v Speaker 1>will tag you in that. So folks want to follow

1460
01:18:04.239 --> 01:18:06.199
<v Speaker 1>you on Twitter, they can do that as well. Steven. So,

1461
01:18:06.600 --> 01:18:09.119
<v Speaker 1>I didn't even get to the dwarf protest, so maybe

1462
01:18:09.159 --> 01:18:12.600
<v Speaker 1>next week. But thank you this morning. Have fun not

1463
01:18:12.640 --> 01:18:14.680
<v Speaker 1>getting murdered at Union station if you're lucky.

1464
01:18:14.720 --> 01:18:16.479
<v Speaker 4>Okay, thank you so much.

1465
01:18:16.760 --> 01:18:19.640
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, absolutely, all right, there you go Stephen Kent here

1466
01:18:19.720 --> 01:18:22.720
<v Speaker 1>on the kc O Day radio program. We will be

1467
01:18:22.800 --> 01:18:24.560
<v Speaker 1>right back. Hey, we got a bunch of tickets for

1468
01:18:24.600 --> 01:18:28.199
<v Speaker 1>this event coming up. If anybody wants some ross. Yeah,

1469
01:18:28.279 --> 01:18:30.800
<v Speaker 1>you want me to get you some Fighting the Oligarchy

<v Speaker 1>some of those for you.

1472
01:18:33.960 --> 01:18:36.439
<v Speaker 2>I heard this really hot, but unfortunately I'm very busy.

1473
01:18:36.800 --> 01:18:38.000
<v Speaker 1>I didn't even tell you which day.

1474
01:18:38.199 --> 01:18:41.920
<v Speaker 2>I'm so busy, but dedicated to the show, I had

1475
01:18:41.960 --> 01:18:42.319
<v Speaker 2>no time.

1476
01:18:42.640 --> 01:18:46.359
<v Speaker 1>They're fighting the Oligarchy, so believe and this is a

1477
01:18:46.399 --> 01:18:49.800
<v Speaker 1>real poster. We're gonna we'll tweet this story out because

1478
01:18:50.479 --> 01:18:52.359
<v Speaker 1>the problem is it looks so much like a parody,

1479
01:18:52.720 --> 01:18:55.479
<v Speaker 1>like until I saw it literally on Bernie Sanders' own account,

1480
01:18:55.520 --> 01:18:57.359
<v Speaker 1>I had to assume it was fake, but no, it's not.

1481
01:18:58.079 --> 01:18:58.159
<v Speaker 3>So.

1482
01:18:58.560 --> 01:19:01.760
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, they have like a concert your tour poster with

1483
01:19:02.039 --> 01:19:05.000
<v Speaker 1>Bernie Sanders, and it's weird because like Bernie Sanders is

1484
01:19:05.119 --> 01:19:08.720
<v Speaker 1>staring forward and then AOC's profiled and like staring off

1485
01:19:08.720 --> 01:19:11.279
<v Speaker 1>to the side. But yeah, they're going on tour together

1486
01:19:11.399 --> 01:19:16.800
<v Speaker 1>and they're calling it the Fighting Oligarchy Tour. And you know,

1487
01:19:16.920 --> 01:19:21.279
<v Speaker 1>I will say this, AOC is an idiot. That's fine.

1488
01:19:21.359 --> 01:19:26.079
<v Speaker 1>She's she's figured out how to be less blatant about it,

1489
01:19:26.159 --> 01:19:28.439
<v Speaker 1>I guess. And I don't know if that's just experience

1490
01:19:28.479 --> 01:19:32.960
<v Speaker 1>there or what. But arguably she and Bernie Sanders are

1491
01:19:33.000 --> 01:19:36.439
<v Speaker 1>really the only ones who still have pretty positive pulling

1492
01:19:36.520 --> 01:19:40.800
<v Speaker 1>among most Democrats. I mean, I understand the Bernie Sanders things.

1493
01:19:40.840 --> 01:19:43.840
<v Speaker 1>He was always kind of the outlier there, right, And

1494
01:19:44.840 --> 01:19:47.640
<v Speaker 1>so if you're frustrated with the more mainstream side of it,

1495
01:19:47.760 --> 01:19:49.680
<v Speaker 1>and why wouldn't you be with Tim Walls run around

1496
01:19:49.720 --> 01:19:52.960
<v Speaker 1>threatening to fight people like it's the WWE, then you

1497
01:19:53.039 --> 01:19:58.319
<v Speaker 1>might gravitate towards Sanders. And arguably Sanders has become more

1498
01:19:58.439 --> 01:20:00.920
<v Speaker 1>mainstream because he was, you know, back in the day,

1499
01:20:00.960 --> 01:20:04.199
<v Speaker 1>Sanders was out there, and in some cases.

1500
01:20:03.920 --> 01:20:06.479
<v Speaker 2>I feel like Bernie Sanders is like the Ron Paul

1501
01:20:06.560 --> 01:20:07.079
<v Speaker 2>of the left.

1502
01:20:07.920 --> 01:20:10.079
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I mean, I mean, don't get me wrong, he's

1503
01:20:10.119 --> 01:20:12.800
<v Speaker 1>his ideas are dangerous. I mean, let's just know.

1504
01:20:12.960 --> 01:20:13.720
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, he's a comedy.

1505
01:20:14.199 --> 01:20:18.880
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, it's and and but like aoc they you know,

1506
01:20:18.920 --> 01:20:20.680
<v Speaker 1>we we joked about how she's going to come the

1507
01:20:20.720 --> 01:20:27.399
<v Speaker 1>face of the party. That's a possibility. That's a possibility, man,

1508
01:20:27.640 --> 01:20:30.880
<v Speaker 1>because right right now they're scrambling to figure out who

1509
01:20:31.039 --> 01:20:33.760
<v Speaker 1>doesn't get booed every time they show up somewhere, you

1510
01:20:33.800 --> 01:20:34.279
<v Speaker 1>know what I mean.

1511
01:20:34.560 --> 01:20:37.960
<v Speaker 2>She's an idiot who's scared of her trash compactor or

1512
01:20:38.000 --> 01:20:42.039
<v Speaker 2>whatever and her disposal. But she's a consistent idiot. Like

1513
01:20:42.079 --> 01:20:43.560
<v Speaker 2>her message really hasn't changed.

1514
01:20:44.760 --> 01:20:47.359
<v Speaker 1>But her and her message is very pop. Is very pop,

1515
01:20:47.359 --> 01:20:49.319
<v Speaker 1>and I mean pop like pop culture. I mean it's

1516
01:20:49.520 --> 01:20:52.560
<v Speaker 1>you know, pop almost in the generic nature of the

1517
01:20:52.600 --> 01:20:57.520
<v Speaker 1>younger appeal to you know, like, how do I say this?

1518
01:20:57.640 --> 01:20:59.840
<v Speaker 1>You know, the bad ideas that you hear college kids

1519
01:21:00.079 --> 01:21:02.399
<v Speaker 1>spouse until they get into the real world, Well, she

1520
01:21:02.479 --> 01:21:06.119
<v Speaker 1>represents that so that people find that attractive. Where she's like,

1521
01:21:06.199 --> 01:21:08.680
<v Speaker 1>you know, she's she could convince people that we don't

1522
01:21:08.680 --> 01:21:11.560
<v Speaker 1>need fifty thousand Amazon jobs in our district and she

1523
01:21:11.600 --> 01:21:13.600
<v Speaker 1>got away with that. That's that would have been career

1524
01:21:13.720 --> 01:21:16.760
<v Speaker 1>ending for a lot of people. And she's just out

1525
01:21:16.800 --> 01:21:19.159
<v Speaker 1>there with platitudes and not anything real.

1526
01:21:19.279 --> 01:21:19.399
<v Speaker 3>You know.

1527
01:21:19.439 --> 01:21:21.520
<v Speaker 1>I remember that video they produced for the Green New

1528
01:21:21.600 --> 01:21:24.399
<v Speaker 1>Deal where they're like they're tying, Oh, we're gonna get

1529
01:21:24.399 --> 01:21:27.680
<v Speaker 1>everyone to plant what was it of plants, and then

1530
01:21:27.680 --> 01:21:30.199
<v Speaker 1>we're gonna build trains to Hawaii or whatever. It was

1531
01:21:30.319 --> 01:21:34.920
<v Speaker 1>like just sheer moonbat pie in the sky insanity, but

1532
01:21:35.079 --> 01:21:39.840
<v Speaker 1>it's not super divisive stuff like, yeah, has AOC really

1533
01:21:39.920 --> 01:21:42.359
<v Speaker 1>been at the forefront of one of the trans debates.

1534
01:21:43.680 --> 01:21:46.239
<v Speaker 1>I haven't seen her attach herself to that. I'm sure

1535
01:21:46.279 --> 01:21:49.960
<v Speaker 1>she's all for it, but like she's either been smart

1536
01:21:50.039 --> 01:21:52.399
<v Speaker 1>enough or just lucked out that she hasn't been really

1537
01:21:52.479 --> 01:21:56.439
<v Speaker 1>the face for the super controversy stuff like nobody believes

1538
01:21:56.439 --> 01:21:58.840
<v Speaker 1>that we're gonna build trains to go to Hawaii, okay,

1539
01:21:58.920 --> 01:22:01.359
<v Speaker 1>or we're gonna get rid of all the cows. So

1540
01:22:01.439 --> 01:22:03.439
<v Speaker 1>she can go out and say that stuff and I'll

1541
01:22:03.439 --> 01:22:05.239
<v Speaker 1>make fun of her on the radio and people will

1542
01:22:05.279 --> 01:22:08.439
<v Speaker 1>be like, how does that work? But like it it

1543
01:22:08.920 --> 01:22:11.359
<v Speaker 1>is that almost no Stredam is kind of way that

1544
01:22:11.399 --> 01:22:14.720
<v Speaker 1>she handles this that that people I think gravitate to

1545
01:22:14.920 --> 01:22:20.159
<v Speaker 1>because within democratic circles it's not really controversial stuff, you know.

1546
01:22:20.239 --> 01:22:25.039
<v Speaker 1>It is that it is that that that how that

1547
01:22:25.239 --> 01:22:28.800
<v Speaker 1>naive approach to uh, you know what is actually politically

1548
01:22:28.840 --> 01:22:32.039
<v Speaker 1>possible that I think lets her continue to pull well

1549
01:22:32.439 --> 01:22:34.840
<v Speaker 1>even though if you watch her, like if you watch

1550
01:22:34.840 --> 01:22:40.640
<v Speaker 1>her a question somebody in Congress, it's what it's it's uh,

1551
01:22:40.760 --> 01:22:44.239
<v Speaker 1>it's your brain cells die. Do you remember when she

1552
01:22:44.359 --> 01:22:47.119
<v Speaker 1>was screaming at Jamie Diamond h and like two of

1553
01:22:47.119 --> 01:22:49.680
<v Speaker 1>the other big bank leaders. They're sitting there and she's

1554
01:22:49.720 --> 01:22:52.399
<v Speaker 1>screaming at him in the Finance Committee about student loans,

1555
01:22:53.199 --> 01:22:55.800
<v Speaker 1>and she's accusing them of trying to take advantage of

1556
01:22:55.840 --> 01:22:58.000
<v Speaker 1>all these college kids and they're gonna be defaulting and

1557
01:22:58.039 --> 01:23:00.600
<v Speaker 1>they're all greedy. And then Jamie Diamond wait to stop

1558
01:23:00.680 --> 01:23:04.560
<v Speaker 1>talking and said, we don't do student loans. Barack Obama

1559
01:23:04.720 --> 01:23:09.439
<v Speaker 1>federalized that during his first administration. And but she went

1560
01:23:09.479 --> 01:23:13.399
<v Speaker 1>on a five minute rant like that, that's the dumbest,

1561
01:23:13.439 --> 01:23:15.960
<v Speaker 1>Like she did no research. How did she just assume

1562
01:23:16.000 --> 01:23:19.840
<v Speaker 1>that they had it? I don't know. But people like her,

1563
01:23:19.840 --> 01:23:24.800
<v Speaker 1>and they like Bernie Sanders, so like, don't discount their ability.

1564
01:23:24.800 --> 01:23:27.720
<v Speaker 1>And if you look at the list here, they're clearly

1565
01:23:28.359 --> 01:23:30.479
<v Speaker 1>going to some of these places where you have these

1566
01:23:30.520 --> 01:23:34.680
<v Speaker 1>bubble districts, which ironically also line up where the really

1567
01:23:34.680 --> 01:23:37.960
<v Speaker 1>bad Tesla vandalism's going on. So I'm sure that's a coincidence.

1568
01:23:38.359 --> 01:23:41.880
<v Speaker 1>But Arizona, Colorado, Nevada, you see what they're doing, swing

1569
01:23:41.880 --> 01:23:46.439
<v Speaker 1>states here, and the list goes on. So there is

1570
01:23:46.479 --> 01:23:49.760
<v Speaker 1>a very real possibility that AOC finds herself in a

1571
01:23:49.840 --> 01:23:53.640
<v Speaker 1>leadership position, which I remember back to when she first started,

1572
01:23:54.079 --> 01:23:57.319
<v Speaker 1>you could not have convinced me that they would give

1573
01:23:57.359 --> 01:24:00.880
<v Speaker 1>her power. But once Pelosi's out out, even though she's

1574
01:24:00.920 --> 01:24:03.840
<v Speaker 1>pretty much out, I mean, and the old guard is out,

1575
01:24:04.000 --> 01:24:06.439
<v Speaker 1>even though Bertie Sanders is arguably the old guards, saying

1576
01:24:06.439 --> 01:24:08.479
<v Speaker 1>they're all getting so old, I mean, someone has to

1577
01:24:08.520 --> 01:24:12.119
<v Speaker 1>replace them. Yeah, and I think, I think if if

1578
01:24:12.119 --> 01:24:16.039
<v Speaker 1>the replacements start to happen, now where she again, she

1579
01:24:16.119 --> 01:24:19.479
<v Speaker 1>doesn't have a net positive polling if you ask everybody,

1580
01:24:19.640 --> 01:24:23.000
<v Speaker 1>but she is much better off than most almost all

1581
01:24:23.039 --> 01:24:25.439
<v Speaker 1>the Democratic leadership, right because the party's mad at the

1582
01:24:25.479 --> 01:24:28.880
<v Speaker 1>leadership for what happened Trump back there. But but but

1583
01:24:29.000 --> 01:24:29.800
<v Speaker 1>even so she.

1584
01:24:29.880 --> 01:24:32.159
<v Speaker 2>Polls well, this is the more I think about it.

1585
01:24:32.239 --> 01:24:34.079
<v Speaker 2>Right now, this is sort of like another It's a

1586
01:24:34.119 --> 01:24:36.960
<v Speaker 2>weird example of the Overton window in a way where

1587
01:24:37.319 --> 01:24:40.840
<v Speaker 2>I think AOC is seen as more sane now because

1588
01:24:40.840 --> 01:24:45.119
<v Speaker 2>you have some more younger members of Congress, like Rep. Crockett,

1589
01:24:45.159 --> 01:24:47.880
<v Speaker 2>who is kind of like, you know, they're so crazy,

1590
01:24:48.199 --> 01:24:50.880
<v Speaker 2>they're so crazy looney tunes that it makes AOC look,

1591
01:24:50.960 --> 01:24:52.720
<v Speaker 2>you know, sane in comparison.

1592
01:24:53.079 --> 01:24:55.840
<v Speaker 1>But that's kind of how AOC was. She just wasn't

1593
01:24:55.880 --> 01:25:00.479
<v Speaker 1>as off putting. Crockett's just off putting, right, right. I

1594
01:25:00.520 --> 01:25:03.399
<v Speaker 1>don't agree with either of them, but AOC there was

1595
01:25:03.439 --> 01:25:07.079
<v Speaker 1>a certain there. It was I think it was the naivety, right, Yeah,

1596
01:25:07.119 --> 01:25:11.199
<v Speaker 1>you allowed people to and and so like let her

1597
01:25:11.239 --> 01:25:14.159
<v Speaker 1>talk about how in the future, since all you know,

1598
01:25:14.279 --> 01:25:17.079
<v Speaker 1>we're not gonna have cows, everyone could plant mangrove trees.

1599
01:25:17.119 --> 01:25:19.880
<v Speaker 1>That's what it was, right, They're in their stupid video there,

1600
01:25:20.239 --> 01:25:23.720
<v Speaker 1>like because it's platitudes. It's it's uh, you know, it's

1601
01:25:23.760 --> 01:25:26.359
<v Speaker 1>big ideas that really don't have a lot of substance.

1602
01:25:26.439 --> 01:25:29.199
<v Speaker 1>It's and it's the stuff that people gravitate towards. A

1603
01:25:29.199 --> 01:25:30.960
<v Speaker 1>lot of it on the left, but on the right

1604
01:25:31.000 --> 01:25:32.800
<v Speaker 1>they have this stuff too, but they're usually a little

1605
01:25:32.840 --> 01:25:34.880
<v Speaker 1>more practical on the right with what they're wanting to do.

1606
01:25:35.439 --> 01:25:37.600
<v Speaker 1>On the left, they can what if you know it's

1607
01:25:37.640 --> 01:25:39.640
<v Speaker 1>it's you know what it is, it's the John Lennon song.

1608
01:25:39.720 --> 01:25:44.319
<v Speaker 1>Imagine if as a person, that's what it is. I'm

1609
01:25:44.319 --> 01:25:47.880
<v Speaker 1>trying to put this into words about and because I'm

1610
01:25:48.000 --> 01:25:51.239
<v Speaker 1>baffled how she's been able to move until I sat

1611
01:25:51.279 --> 01:25:53.680
<v Speaker 1>down and analyzed it, and I realized they can't really

1612
01:25:53.720 --> 01:25:55.840
<v Speaker 1>attach any of the stuff that's really got the party

1613
01:25:55.840 --> 01:25:59.039
<v Speaker 1>in trouble to her because she's off her daydreaming about stuff,

1614
01:25:59.119 --> 01:26:02.199
<v Speaker 1>and people like those daydreams. They like it. What if

1615
01:26:02.199 --> 01:26:05.560
<v Speaker 1>we had all the vehicles will be electric? Right? Well

1616
01:26:05.560 --> 01:26:08.760
<v Speaker 1>that's not well, not if you keep burning them, right.

1617
01:26:08.880 --> 01:26:14.199
<v Speaker 1>But she's not leaned into that either, So she could

1618
01:26:14.239 --> 01:26:15.880
<v Speaker 1>be in leadership. And I know a lot of you going, well,

1619
01:26:15.880 --> 01:26:17.760
<v Speaker 1>that's a good thing. You know what, if you don't

1620
01:26:17.760 --> 01:26:20.479
<v Speaker 1>like the Democrat Party, you probably don't want them transitioning

1621
01:26:20.479 --> 01:26:25.039
<v Speaker 1>to people who generally are pulling well, because then then

1622
01:26:25.079 --> 01:26:27.600
<v Speaker 1>it allows people who said, I screw the party, I'm

1623
01:26:27.600 --> 01:26:29.039
<v Speaker 1>not going to be a part of this. Look at

1624
01:26:29.039 --> 01:26:33.079
<v Speaker 1>these losers them to convince themselves that maybe it's okay

1625
01:26:33.119 --> 01:26:37.199
<v Speaker 1>to get back into it. And you know it's that

1626
01:26:37.279 --> 01:26:39.560
<v Speaker 1>whole thing when your opponent's down to let them up.

1627
01:26:40.359 --> 01:26:42.359
<v Speaker 1>But we shall see. All right, we're doing the we

1628
01:26:42.520 --> 01:26:46.000
<v Speaker 1>do the phone again. Okay, all right, yay technology. Jeff

1629
01:26:46.039 --> 01:26:48.479
<v Speaker 1>Maher from the Weather Channel is joining us this morning.

1630
01:26:48.960 --> 01:26:52.359
<v Speaker 1>All right, Eve the man. Good day to day. Although

1631
01:26:52.399 --> 01:26:53.880
<v Speaker 1>a lot of people I think are going to be

1632
01:26:53.920 --> 01:26:55.479
<v Speaker 1>inside most of the day uletss they go to a

1633
01:26:55.479 --> 01:26:59.119
<v Speaker 1>bar patio because we got basketball in SANITYA. But we

1634
01:26:59.239 --> 01:27:02.239
<v Speaker 1>do have games locally in Raleigh, so let's get some

1635
01:27:02.279 --> 01:27:04.880
<v Speaker 1>good weather for that. Maybe a little tailgating, yeah, to

1636
01:27:04.920 --> 01:27:06.000
<v Speaker 1>get new some warm weather.

1637

<v Speaker 3>Today. Will be up to seventy six for this first

1638
01:27:07.920 --> 01:27:09.680
<v Speaker 3>day of spring, but there will be some wet weather.

1639
01:27:09.720 --> 01:27:11.640
<v Speaker 3>We've got a coal file on the doorstep. It's going

1640
01:27:11.680 --> 01:27:13.720
<v Speaker 3>to bring in some showers and thunderstorms with some gusty

1641
01:27:13.760 --> 01:27:15.760
<v Speaker 3>winds out of the southwest. I flub moves out tonight,

1642
01:27:15.760 --> 01:27:17.800
<v Speaker 3>so rainboland early in the evening, then some breaks in

1643
01:27:17.840 --> 01:27:20.079
<v Speaker 3>the clouds overnight with a low dipping to thirty nine.

1644
01:27:20.159 --> 01:27:22.560
<v Speaker 3>Tomorrow's sunny, wendy and color behind the front. We shod

1645
01:27:22.560 --> 01:27:24.920
<v Speaker 3>at sixty two, a low temperature in the low forties

1646
01:27:25.000 --> 01:27:26.920
<v Speaker 3>under a partly cloudy sky tomorrow night, and then a

1647
01:27:26.920 --> 01:27:30.000
<v Speaker 3>beautiful weekend plenty of sun for Saturday and Sunday afternoons,

1648
01:27:30.039 --> 01:27:32.000
<v Speaker 3>with highs each day in the low seventies.

1649
01:27:32.399 --> 01:27:34.840
<v Speaker 1>All right, Jeff, have yourselfagu Are you with us tomorrow?

1650
01:27:34.920 --> 01:27:35.079
<v Speaker 4>Sir?

1651
01:27:35.479 --> 01:27:36.079
<v Speaker 3>I am indeed.

1652
01:27:36.520 --> 01:27:39.520
<v Speaker 1>Okay, Well, we'll talk to you tomorrow. Have a good one, sir.

1653
01:27:39.680 --> 01:27:40.319
<v Speaker 3>Thank you you too.

1654
01:27:40.760 --> 01:27:44.880
<v Speaker 1>There you go, all right, and we come back. Let's

1655
01:27:44.880 --> 01:27:48.079
<v Speaker 1>see here, we'll chat with Jeff Bellinger here in just

1656
01:27:48.119 --> 01:27:52.279
<v Speaker 1>a few minutes. And I got another Floorida guy. Not

1657
01:27:52.560 --> 01:27:55.159
<v Speaker 1>this one didn't drown their pet though, but they are

1658
01:27:55.159 --> 01:27:57.840
<v Speaker 1>insane and we'll share that with you coming up here

1659
01:27:57.880 --> 01:28:00.119
<v Speaker 1>on the CaCO Day radio program.

1660
01:28:00.000 --> 01:28:01.000
<v Speaker 2>Good Morning KC.

1661
01:28:01.279 --> 01:28:05.079
<v Speaker 5>Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell helped to surge a soothe

1662
01:28:05.119 --> 01:28:09.279
<v Speaker 5>investor's fears over price increases and an economic slow down

1663
01:28:09.399 --> 01:28:12.960
<v Speaker 5>tied to President Trump's tariffs. Powell did not raise any

1664
01:28:12.960 --> 01:28:15.399
<v Speaker 5>alarms when he spoke yesterday and said he said the

1665
01:28:15.399 --> 01:28:19.600
<v Speaker 5>inflationary impact of the trade war will be transitory. Stock

1666
01:28:19.680 --> 01:28:22.600
<v Speaker 5>sended higher yesterday, but that was yesterday.

1667
01:28:22.640 --> 01:28:23.439
<v Speaker 1>This is today.

1668
01:28:23.960 --> 01:28:28.399
<v Speaker 5>Stock market futures are pointing lower. Analysts say that Powell's

1669
01:28:28.439 --> 01:28:32.119
<v Speaker 5>reassurances have already worn off. There was an uptick last

1670
01:28:32.159 --> 01:28:35.239
<v Speaker 5>week the number of workers signing up for unemployment benefits.

1671
01:28:35.279 --> 01:28:38.439
<v Speaker 5>The Labor Department counted two hundred and twenty three thousand

1672
01:28:38.520 --> 01:28:42.840
<v Speaker 5>new applications, two thousand more than the prior week. Colonial

1673
01:28:42.880 --> 01:28:47.560
<v Speaker 5>pipeline's been exploring options, including a possible sale, since last fall.

1674
01:28:48.000 --> 01:28:51.039
<v Speaker 5>Now source to say a sale is the most likely scenario,

1675
01:28:51.399 --> 01:28:55.319
<v Speaker 5>a sale to Brookfield Asset Management. Final offers for the

1676
01:28:55.359 --> 01:28:58.760
<v Speaker 5>pipeline that transports fuel from Texas to New Jersey were

1677
01:28:58.800 --> 01:29:01.640
<v Speaker 5>submitted last week, and Brookfield is said to be the

1678
01:29:01.640 --> 01:29:04.479
<v Speaker 5>front runner for a deal that could value the pipeline

1679
01:29:04.640 --> 01:29:08.680
<v Speaker 5>at ten billion dollars or more. The European Union now

1680
01:29:08.760 --> 01:29:12.680
<v Speaker 5>wants more talks with Washington over tariffs on alcohol. The

1681
01:29:12.720 --> 01:29:16.600
<v Speaker 5>EU had proposed a fifty percent tariff on American whiskey

1682
01:29:16.680 --> 01:29:20.640
<v Speaker 5>starting April first. President Trump countered saying the US would

1683
01:29:20.720 --> 01:29:24.319
<v Speaker 5>levy a two hundred percent tariff on all alcohol imported

1684
01:29:24.359 --> 01:29:27.920
<v Speaker 5>from the EU. Now, a representative of the EU says

1685
01:29:28.039 --> 01:29:31.159
<v Speaker 5>not so fast. Officials are ready to engage in constructive

1686
01:29:31.199 --> 01:29:34.119
<v Speaker 5>dialogue with the US, and no new tariffs will be

1687
01:29:34.159 --> 01:29:38.479
<v Speaker 5>imposed until at least mid April. Tesla issued a cyber

1688
01:29:38.520 --> 01:29:41.119
<v Speaker 5>truck recall, and this is an issue that cannot be

1689
01:29:41.159 --> 01:29:42.800
<v Speaker 5>resolved with a software update.

1690
01:29:43.119 --> 01:29:43.600
<v Speaker 2>All of the.

1691
01:29:43.560 --> 01:29:46.239
<v Speaker 5>Cyber trucks sold in the US in the first fifteen

1692
01:29:46.279 --> 01:29:49.279
<v Speaker 5>months the electric pickup was on the market have to

1693
01:29:49.319 --> 01:29:52.800
<v Speaker 5>be checked because pieces of steel trim can come loose,

1694
01:29:53.159 --> 01:29:56.319
<v Speaker 5>possibly creating a road hazard for drivers who are following

1695
01:29:56.359 --> 01:29:59.600
<v Speaker 5>the trucks. Tesla blames an adhesive that is this is

1696
01:29:59.640 --> 01:30:05.439
<v Speaker 5>a quote susceptible to environmental embrittlement. Read that bad glue

1697
01:30:05.600 --> 01:30:08.760
<v Speaker 5>and casey. It's the first day of spring and there

1698
01:30:08.760 --> 01:30:11.680
<v Speaker 5>are freebies to be had. Dairy Queen giving away small

1699
01:30:11.760 --> 01:30:15.319
<v Speaker 5>vanilla cones read Italian Ice is offering a free six

1700
01:30:15.359 --> 01:30:19.319
<v Speaker 5>soundce ice and Duncan rewards. Members who warded refreshers today

1701
01:30:19.359 --> 01:30:22.199
<v Speaker 5>will get triple points toward the next reward.

1702
01:30:22.600 --> 01:30:25.600
<v Speaker 1>Okay, all right, well there you go. So I'm down

1703
01:30:25.640 --> 01:30:27.800
<v Speaker 1>with free ice cream. I think most people are. Jeff

1704
01:30:27.880 --> 01:30:30.600
<v Speaker 1>appreciate it. Thank you. Okay, have a good day. Talk

1705
01:30:30.600 --> 01:30:33.760
<v Speaker 1>to you tomorrow. Yeah, there you go. So, by the way,

1706
01:30:33.800 --> 01:30:35.760
<v Speaker 1>I was watching something and I'll give to this other

1707
01:30:35.800 --> 01:30:41.199
<v Speaker 1>Florida story here real quick. I was watching it was

1708
01:30:41.399 --> 01:30:43.920
<v Speaker 1>one of the ESPN shows one of the radio shows,

1709
01:30:43.960 --> 01:30:45.920
<v Speaker 1>but it was there was video of these guys talking

1710
01:30:45.920 --> 01:30:49.720
<v Speaker 1>about it, so and they were talking about high Point University.

1711
01:30:49.720 --> 01:30:52.920
<v Speaker 1>Obviously high Point University NCAA tournament. The team was really

1712
01:30:52.960 --> 01:30:54.800
<v Speaker 1>really good this year. I guess you guys don't know that.

1713
01:30:55.720 --> 01:30:58.119
<v Speaker 1>And that's really cool to watch that. And as you know,

1714
01:30:58.359 --> 01:31:03.079
<v Speaker 1>our greens studios we call Greensboro because they were in Greensboro,

1715
01:31:03.319 --> 01:31:07.159
<v Speaker 1>are now in downtown high Point. We relocated there they

1716
01:31:07.239 --> 01:31:09.760
<v Speaker 1>have two years now and I really like it because

1717
01:31:09.760 --> 01:31:11.920
<v Speaker 1>we're red above that food hall by the baseball stadium.

1718
01:31:11.920 --> 01:31:14.720
<v Speaker 1>But anyone who's ever driven around high Point, basically half

1719
01:31:14.720 --> 01:31:18.279
<v Speaker 1>the town is high Point University. Right there's the main campus,

1720
01:31:18.319 --> 01:31:20.840
<v Speaker 1>but then there's just all these little swaths in sections

1721
01:31:21.119 --> 01:31:23.840
<v Speaker 1>where it's all fenced in there. I've never been inside

1722
01:31:23.880 --> 01:31:27.279
<v Speaker 1>a high Point University, but they were talking about the

1723
01:31:27.319 --> 01:31:29.560
<v Speaker 1>campus and I had rosta do you know a high

1724
01:31:29.560 --> 01:31:32.439
<v Speaker 1>Point They have a free ice cream truck that drives

1725
01:31:32.439 --> 01:31:35.520
<v Speaker 1>around the kids can just order ice cream there and

1726
01:31:35.560 --> 01:31:38.840
<v Speaker 1>then they have seriously have an ice cream truck.

1727
01:31:38.680 --> 01:31:40.640
<v Speaker 2>That drives roun to that is right. That is worth

1728
01:31:40.680 --> 01:31:41.520
<v Speaker 2>tuition right there.

1729
01:31:41.800 --> 01:31:45.079
<v Speaker 1>That's amazing. And they have a steakhouse on the campus

1730
01:31:45.119 --> 01:31:47.159
<v Speaker 1>that the kids can go eat at. It's a limited

1731
01:31:47.199 --> 01:31:50.319
<v Speaker 1>number of times for free, and they're arguing that it

1732
01:31:50.439 --> 01:31:54.119
<v Speaker 1>helps them build social dining skills. And they got a

1733
01:31:54.119 --> 01:31:56.680
<v Speaker 1>trap ton of pools. That place looks amazing And now

1734
01:31:56.680 --> 01:31:58.239
<v Speaker 1>I know why they have the big old fences so

1735
01:31:58.279 --> 01:32:02.079
<v Speaker 1>nobody jacks their ice cream. So but yeah, but good

1736
01:32:02.079 --> 01:32:04.840
<v Speaker 1>on them. From a tournament perspective too, that's going to

1737
01:32:04.920 --> 01:32:09.039
<v Speaker 1>be fun to watch, especially since you know, the ACC

1738
01:32:09.279 --> 01:32:12.199
<v Speaker 1>has been a little rough, a little rougher year this

1739
01:32:12.279 --> 01:32:14.359
<v Speaker 1>year with getting teams in there. It's nice to have

1740
01:32:14.399 --> 01:32:16.600
<v Speaker 1>some other local teams and we got quite a few.

1741
01:32:17.079 --> 01:32:19.800
<v Speaker 1>All right, real quick on this. I didn't get to

1742
01:32:19.800 --> 01:32:22.680
<v Speaker 1>this with Steven, but I didn't mention it. There is

1743
01:32:22.800 --> 01:32:26.000
<v Speaker 1>a there's going to be a dwarf protest. I guess

1744
01:32:26.000 --> 01:32:28.640
<v Speaker 1>that's tomorrow. Tomorrow is the opening of the snow White

1745
01:32:28.680 --> 01:32:33.399
<v Speaker 1>movie and they're trying I think they want to get

1746
01:32:33.439 --> 01:32:38.720
<v Speaker 1>at least one hundred little people, actors and others. Which

1747
01:32:39.079 --> 01:32:42.039
<v Speaker 1>is there that many in Hollywood? Maybe there are, And

1748
01:32:42.079 --> 01:32:43.479
<v Speaker 1>you know what, this is one of these as long

1749
01:32:43.520 --> 01:32:45.640
<v Speaker 1>as they're not vandalizing stuff, Like I get this one

1750
01:32:45.720 --> 01:32:46.560
<v Speaker 1>hundred percent.

1751
01:32:46.359 --> 01:32:47.960
<v Speaker 2>No, And I'm on their side too. It makes sense.

1752
01:32:48.359 --> 01:32:51.279
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, here's what I would say, You guys probably shouldn't

1753
01:32:51.279 --> 01:32:56.199
<v Speaker 1>try to block traffic the sight lines. But I will

1754
01:32:56.199 --> 01:32:58.399
<v Speaker 1>say this, you know what's crazy is really the guy

1755
01:32:58.399 --> 01:33:00.720
<v Speaker 1>who kicked all this off as Peter Dingkdge, you know,

1756
01:33:00.880 --> 01:33:03.600
<v Speaker 1>got super mad over this. He's he's he's got a

1757
01:33:03.600 --> 01:33:07.079
<v Speaker 1>new movie coming out where he plays a little guy

1758
01:33:07.279 --> 01:33:10.520
<v Speaker 1>in the movies. He's in the He's in the Toxic

1759
01:33:10.560 --> 01:33:13.399
<v Speaker 1>Adventure reboot that's coming out, which, by the way, are

1760
01:33:13.439 --> 01:33:14.880
<v Speaker 1>you do you know anything about that movie? Ross?

1761
01:33:14.880 --> 01:33:16.359
<v Speaker 2>Absolutely nothing, dude.

1762
01:33:16.399 --> 01:33:21.239
<v Speaker 1>It's got uh, it's got Kevin Bacon in it as

1763
01:33:21.319 --> 01:33:25.399
<v Speaker 1>the toxic of Elijah Wood and Peter Dinklidge. I think

1764
01:33:25.520 --> 01:33:27.960
<v Speaker 1>Dinklage is going to play Goose or Toxic or whatever.

1765
01:33:28.039 --> 01:33:30.239
<v Speaker 1>If you guys know anything about that movie. But yeah,

1766
01:33:30.239 --> 01:33:33.159
<v Speaker 1>I guess some big names attached to that. But like

1767
01:33:35.680 --> 01:33:38.800
<v Speaker 1>it's it's so he's working and he's played these.

1768
01:33:38.760 --> 01:33:40.840
<v Speaker 2>Roles before in the past. He played a dwarf in

1769
01:33:40.880 --> 01:33:43.600
<v Speaker 2>the Chronicles of Nardia, Prince Caspian, he played an elf

1770
01:33:43.640 --> 01:33:44.960
<v Speaker 2>in the movie Elf right.

1771
01:33:45.199 --> 01:33:49.159
<v Speaker 1>Yeah. Yeah, so it's like, so his his paycheck has

1772
01:33:49.199 --> 01:33:52.399
<v Speaker 1>not been harmed. So yeah, I guess. I guess he's

1773
01:33:52.680 --> 01:33:53.920
<v Speaker 1>at public enemy number one.

1774
01:33:54.199 --> 01:33:56.439
<v Speaker 2>I'm being told he wasn't an elf, he was an

1775
01:33:56.439 --> 01:33:58.479
<v Speaker 2>angry elf. So I want to attract my statement.

1776
01:33:58.800 --> 01:33:59.239
<v Speaker 1>What's that?

1777
01:33:59.359 --> 01:34:01.039
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, we didn't playing Elf and Elf. He was an

1778
01:34:01.039 --> 01:34:03.039
<v Speaker 2>angry elf, so I apologize.

1779
01:34:04.359 --> 01:34:06.039
<v Speaker 1>Is that still your favorite Christmas movie?

1780
01:34:06.439 --> 01:34:11.319
<v Speaker 2>It's top five? Actually, slip might have slipped. Oh no, okay, no,

1781
01:34:11.319 --> 01:34:13.199
<v Speaker 2>but it makes sense. It's like, listen, say you we're

1782
01:34:13.199 --> 01:34:15.840
<v Speaker 2>filming a movie like Jack and the bean Stock. We're

1783
01:34:15.880 --> 01:34:17.840
<v Speaker 2>filming Jack and the bean Stock and some guy shows

1784
01:34:17.880 --> 01:34:20.039
<v Speaker 2>up and he's like, I'm a twenty foot giant. I

1785
01:34:20.079 --> 01:34:22.359
<v Speaker 2>am perfect for this role. And they're like, we can't

1786
01:34:22.399 --> 01:34:25.479
<v Speaker 2>cast you as the giant because that would be perpetuing stereotypes.

1787
01:34:25.920 --> 01:34:28.039
<v Speaker 2>So yeah, and the same thing. I mean, these feel like, listen,

1788
01:34:28.119 --> 01:34:30.319
<v Speaker 2>we could be perfect for your movie and you're not

1789
01:34:30.399 --> 01:34:32.560
<v Speaker 2>hiring us, and we're looking for acting roles. It's stupid.

1790
01:34:33.039 --> 01:34:35.039
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, but they're just like every other actor. Man. They

1791
01:34:35.039 --> 01:34:38.800
<v Speaker 1>just want to eat that are that they're dark necessarily

1792
01:34:38.800 --> 01:34:42.640
<v Speaker 1>the leading folks there. All right, real quick, this guy

1793
01:34:42.640 --> 01:34:44.520
<v Speaker 1>down in Florida, I don't have time to play this song,

1794
01:34:44.560 --> 01:34:47.920
<v Speaker 1>but that's okay. This absolute lunatic a.

1795
01:34:48.680 --> 01:34:49.039
<v Speaker 3>He is.

1796
01:34:49.119 --> 01:34:52.560
<v Speaker 1>He's got tds of the of the highest caliber. Kendall

1797
01:34:52.680 --> 01:34:57.399
<v Speaker 1>Todd forty two busted on Monday and I was at St.

1798
01:34:57.479 --> 01:35:01.720
<v Speaker 1>Lucie County. He has been on an a online rampage

1799
01:35:02.159 --> 01:35:05.720
<v Speaker 1>posting all sorts of threats threatening to kill Trump, specifically

1800
01:35:05.720 --> 01:35:09.039
<v Speaker 1>how he wants to kill him. He wants to quote

1801
01:35:09.760 --> 01:35:11.479
<v Speaker 1>fight naked to the death.

1802
01:35:14.439 --> 01:35:17.159
<v Speaker 3>What I mean?

1803
01:35:17.199 --> 01:35:20.479
<v Speaker 1>I guess maybe the fight to the death thing. Again.

1804
01:35:20.520 --> 01:35:23.000
<v Speaker 1>I wouldn't say that you should post this, but why

1805
01:35:23.119 --> 01:35:23.479
<v Speaker 1>naked
