WEBVTT

1
00:00:00.960 --> 00:00:04.280
<v Speaker 1>Coming up on the show. We ended up with two

2
00:00:04.320 --> 00:00:06.160
<v Speaker 1>interviews today, and you know how much I hate you

3
00:00:06.440 --> 00:00:10.279
<v Speaker 1>doing two interviews, but we're gonna do it just the

4
00:00:10.560 --> 00:00:13.160
<v Speaker 1>way that it worked out. But I think we're gonna

5
00:00:13.160 --> 00:00:16.239
<v Speaker 1>get some good info out of it. And I had

6
00:00:16.280 --> 00:00:19.800
<v Speaker 1>to do less prep yesterday, so you know, good stuff.

7
00:00:20.760 --> 00:00:26.559
<v Speaker 1>One is a state insurance commissioner, Mike Cosey. Oh, oh,

8
00:00:26.600 --> 00:00:29.280
<v Speaker 1>we're gonna talk about insurance kind of, We're gonna talk

9
00:00:29.320 --> 00:00:31.320
<v Speaker 1>about a little, you know, a few things going on

10
00:00:31.960 --> 00:00:35.039
<v Speaker 1>as the General Assembly is trying to put everything together

11
00:00:35.200 --> 00:00:39.000
<v Speaker 1>up there, causey had I don't know. I guess his

12
00:00:39.119 --> 00:00:43.240
<v Speaker 1>office has some concerns about some stuff, and especially if

13
00:00:43.240 --> 00:00:46.399
<v Speaker 1>you're on the no offense, if you're on the older

14
00:00:46.479 --> 00:00:52.119
<v Speaker 1>end of our audience, you it may be impactful to you.

15
00:00:52.960 --> 00:00:55.679
<v Speaker 1>So and I'm just like, then, he tried to explain

16
00:00:55.719 --> 00:00:57.399
<v Speaker 1>it to me, and he does a good job of

17
00:00:57.399 --> 00:01:00.280
<v Speaker 1>that in the past when I spoke to him, because

18
00:01:00.479 --> 00:01:06.079
<v Speaker 1>it's very easy to walk out doing that. And I'm

19
00:01:06.120 --> 00:01:08.359
<v Speaker 1>just like, Okay, well, why why why don't you explain

20
00:01:08.400 --> 00:01:09.760
<v Speaker 1>it to everybody?

21
00:01:10.280 --> 00:01:10.760
<v Speaker 2>Yeah?

22
00:01:11.280 --> 00:01:14.439
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, No, that's that's my level of lazy right there.

23
00:01:15.079 --> 00:01:20.079
<v Speaker 1>So but basically it is it's having to do with

24
00:01:21.480 --> 00:01:24.120
<v Speaker 1>ship funding. So if you don't know what that is,

25
00:01:24.159 --> 00:01:27.599
<v Speaker 1>that is it's for Medicare beneficiaries.

26
00:01:28.159 --> 00:01:29.799
<v Speaker 3>But it's like.

27
00:01:31.079 --> 00:01:33.400
<v Speaker 1>There's a there's a lot of big changes coming, which

28
00:01:33.400 --> 00:01:36.159
<v Speaker 1>I think fundamentally are good, but we have to talk about,

29
00:01:36.400 --> 00:01:38.560
<v Speaker 1>uh if all of them are good. So we will

30
00:01:38.599 --> 00:01:40.760
<v Speaker 1>go ahead and we will get into that with Mike

31
00:01:40.840 --> 00:01:44.480
<v Speaker 1>Casey and then uh Congress and Murphy. Greg Murphy's is

32
00:01:44.519 --> 00:01:46.599
<v Speaker 1>going to join us. So Kazy will be at seven

33
00:01:46.640 --> 00:01:50.359
<v Speaker 1>o five and then Murphy will be at seven thirty five.

34
00:01:50.480 --> 00:01:52.079
<v Speaker 1>It was going to be at eight oh five, but

35
00:01:52.560 --> 00:01:56.840
<v Speaker 1>apparently there was some emergency up in DC and so

36
00:01:56.879 --> 00:01:59.359
<v Speaker 1>they had to move it. They didn't say they didn't

37
00:01:59.359 --> 00:02:01.079
<v Speaker 1>say why they had move it, just that they had

38
00:02:01.120 --> 00:02:04.760
<v Speaker 1>to move it. Huh, asking Ross because Ross, Yeah, okay,

39
00:02:04.920 --> 00:02:07.120
<v Speaker 1>all right, well I don't know. No, I'm just here's

40
00:02:07.280 --> 00:02:10.199
<v Speaker 1>here's why. I'm like, maybe they're gonna do something in DC. Right,

41
00:02:10.280 --> 00:02:12.719
<v Speaker 1>So I'm trying to be hopeful on this news, like

42
00:02:13.199 --> 00:02:15.080
<v Speaker 1>maybe they're going to actually take one of the three

43
00:02:15.120 --> 00:02:19.560
<v Speaker 1>thousand things Trump's done and enshrine it actually into law.

44
00:02:19.599 --> 00:02:23.280
<v Speaker 1>Wouldn't that be amazing? That'd be awesome. So I look,

45
00:02:23.319 --> 00:02:26.680
<v Speaker 1>I hope that's what it is. What do they call

46
00:02:26.800 --> 00:02:31.360
<v Speaker 1>the one thing, the Big Beautiful Bill, the Big by

47
00:02:31.360 --> 00:02:33.080
<v Speaker 1>the way, if you're a fact guy named Bill, this

48
00:02:33.319 --> 00:02:37.360
<v Speaker 1>is your news week, right, be like yeah, no, no,

49
00:02:37.479 --> 00:02:38.319
<v Speaker 1>they're talking about me.

50
00:02:39.439 --> 00:02:39.879
<v Speaker 2>So uh.

51
00:02:39.960 --> 00:02:43.080
<v Speaker 1>Anyway, so we'll get into that, we'll get into africaners,

52
00:02:43.639 --> 00:02:47.719
<v Speaker 1>we'll get into the pope is black? Ross. Did you

53
00:02:47.759 --> 00:02:50.280
<v Speaker 1>know the pope was black? You do, now, don't you?

54
00:02:51.479 --> 00:02:52.000
<v Speaker 3>Yeah?

55
00:02:52.240 --> 00:02:56.840
<v Speaker 4>I mean, yeah, that's some audio there, it's maybe that's

56
00:02:56.879 --> 00:02:58.080
<v Speaker 4>something it is.

57
00:02:58.159 --> 00:03:02.360
<v Speaker 1>It's a minute of something right there of oar. So yeah,

58
00:03:02.400 --> 00:03:05.680
<v Speaker 1>I saw people starting in on this I and now

59
00:03:05.759 --> 00:03:09.560
<v Speaker 1>and I'm like, all right, is he non binary too?

60
00:03:09.639 --> 00:03:11.400
<v Speaker 1>I mean, what what else are you gonna do? You

61
00:03:11.479 --> 00:03:14.240
<v Speaker 1>know where this reminds me of Do you remember when

62
00:03:14.280 --> 00:03:18.439
<v Speaker 1>Barack Obama went to Ireland that insane news cycle where

63
00:03:18.439 --> 00:03:22.879
<v Speaker 1>they're like, well, actually he's Irish, right And people are like, yeah,

64
00:03:22.919 --> 00:03:24.479
<v Speaker 1>it's got an O in front of his name, and

65
00:03:24.479 --> 00:03:27.439
<v Speaker 1>I'm like, that's not how that works. I'm not I'm

66
00:03:27.439 --> 00:03:32.840
<v Speaker 1>not saying that he doesn't have obviously family, traceable family.

67
00:03:32.960 --> 00:03:35.159
<v Speaker 1>The thing that always creeps me about the presidents is

68
00:03:35.199 --> 00:03:39.240
<v Speaker 1>they are always like six cousins to each other. Some

69
00:03:39.240 --> 00:03:43.039
<v Speaker 1>some guys, some genealogical based news reporter will be like,

70
00:03:43.080 --> 00:03:48.120
<v Speaker 1>did you know so and so is is actually uh,

71
00:03:48.159 --> 00:03:52.000
<v Speaker 1>you know, six cousin three times removed from you know,

72
00:03:52.759 --> 00:03:55.080
<v Speaker 1>And then if it's if it's a politician, they like

73
00:03:55.159 --> 00:03:58.879
<v Speaker 1>they're like Abraham Lincoln, and if it's not, they're like

74
00:03:58.960 --> 00:03:59.879
<v Speaker 1>Adolf Hitler.

75
00:04:01.520 --> 00:04:01.719
<v Speaker 2>Ah.

76
00:04:01.759 --> 00:04:03.599
<v Speaker 1>Those are always fun, although they kind of stopped doing

77
00:04:03.639 --> 00:04:09.159
<v Speaker 1>those with Trump because of the slavery thing. That story.

78
00:04:09.199 --> 00:04:11.439
<v Speaker 1>Remember when that story came out and everyone just kind

79
00:04:11.439 --> 00:04:14.639
<v Speaker 1>of lost their mind, even though it makes super logical sense.

80
00:04:16.319 --> 00:04:19.439
<v Speaker 1>So do you know that there's only one president of

81
00:04:19.480 --> 00:04:24.519
<v Speaker 1>the United States who's ever served whose family whose relatives

82
00:04:24.560 --> 00:04:28.800
<v Speaker 1>didn't in some way, shape or form participate in slavery

83
00:04:28.879 --> 00:04:32.759
<v Speaker 1>in the New World, And that's Donald Trump. Yeah.

84
00:04:32.759 --> 00:04:35.240
<v Speaker 4>They couldn't stand it. They're like, well, actually Obama's family

85
00:04:35.319 --> 00:04:38.759
<v Speaker 4>owned slaves. Don't don't even get started on Joe Biden.

86
00:04:38.879 --> 00:04:43.000
<v Speaker 1>His family, not Kamala, right, she would have been the

87
00:04:43.040 --> 00:04:45.519
<v Speaker 1>other one. No, they also did actually actually a big

88
00:04:45.519 --> 00:04:49.560
<v Speaker 1>plantation in Jamaica. Yeah, wow, of the biggest ones. Nah,

89
00:04:50.000 --> 00:04:52.199
<v Speaker 1>they're big time into the slaves. Not good, Yeah, no,

90
00:04:52.279 --> 00:04:55.879
<v Speaker 1>oh man, that's but for some reason, that's not covered,

91
00:04:55.920 --> 00:05:00.279
<v Speaker 1>you know, like that's Jamaica. Man, is Jamaica part of

92
00:05:00.319 --> 00:05:04.800
<v Speaker 1>the US? No, come on, that's it. They clearly give

93
00:05:04.839 --> 00:05:07.759
<v Speaker 1>Trump that pass as well. I'm sure no, but it

94
00:05:07.839 --> 00:05:10.680
<v Speaker 1>makes sense. They're like, no, he's literally his his, he's

95
00:05:10.720 --> 00:05:15.959
<v Speaker 1>like third with third generation or something. So yeah, that

96
00:05:16.079 --> 00:05:20.040
<v Speaker 1>actually that makes sense. They were here and then they

97
00:05:20.079 --> 00:05:23.079
<v Speaker 1>were in Germany, which wasn't really you know, not to

98
00:05:23.120 --> 00:05:25.000
<v Speaker 1>say that they you know, outside of that, they could,

99
00:05:25.120 --> 00:05:27.399
<v Speaker 1>but they couldn't stand that stat So now we're gonna

100
00:05:27.439 --> 00:05:30.519
<v Speaker 1>do it with the pope, and uh, of course the

101
00:05:30.639 --> 00:05:33.160
<v Speaker 1>view is here to help us do that. So very

102
00:05:33.199 --> 00:05:37.480
<v Speaker 1>excited to learn all about that. And speaking of immigration,

103
00:05:38.160 --> 00:05:41.959
<v Speaker 1>the amount of well, let me just play a piece

104
00:05:42.000 --> 00:05:45.240
<v Speaker 1>of audio. So if you don't know, fifty nine, he

105
00:05:45.399 --> 00:05:47.480
<v Speaker 1>keeps seeing sixty thrown around, but it's fifty nine. I

106
00:05:47.519 --> 00:05:51.720
<v Speaker 1>don't know that matters. Africanners who have spent two months

107
00:05:51.759 --> 00:05:56.920
<v Speaker 1>being vetted, by the way, so everybody knows who everybody is, right,

108
00:05:57.000 --> 00:06:01.800
<v Speaker 1>and many of them have already secured employment in the US. Now,

109
00:06:01.959 --> 00:06:04.519
<v Speaker 1>I understand people got all sorts of thoughts. So a

110
00:06:04.519 --> 00:06:07.680
<v Speaker 1>lot of people don't care if you're where you're from.

111
00:06:07.959 --> 00:06:09.879
<v Speaker 1>They don't care. They don't care if you're from Canada

112
00:06:09.879 --> 00:06:12.199
<v Speaker 1>and you want to move down here. You know, I'm

113
00:06:12.199 --> 00:06:15.199
<v Speaker 1>just trying to think of the most closely associated. You know,

114
00:06:15.519 --> 00:06:18.680
<v Speaker 1>they don't even like it if rich immigrants move in.

115
00:06:18.759 --> 00:06:21.800
<v Speaker 1>I understand that that's a mindset here, I don't fully

116
00:06:21.839 --> 00:06:25.040
<v Speaker 1>understand that. I think most people are just like, how

117
00:06:25.079 --> 00:06:28.600
<v Speaker 1>about an orderly process. How about people that aren't going

118
00:06:28.639 --> 00:06:30.639
<v Speaker 1>to be on the financial doal when they get here.

119
00:06:31.040 --> 00:06:35.920
<v Speaker 1>How about where opportunities present to do things like this

120
00:06:36.279 --> 00:06:39.040
<v Speaker 1>gold card that Trump's doing. Keep it in mind that

121
00:06:39.079 --> 00:06:41.120
<v Speaker 1>the people who can afford something like that are also

122
00:06:41.160 --> 00:06:43.879
<v Speaker 1>people who are going to make large scale investments in

123
00:06:44.040 --> 00:06:48.920
<v Speaker 1>property probably staff right, if you're rolling at that level

124
00:06:49.040 --> 00:06:52.319
<v Speaker 1>in the United States. And oh, by the way, we'll

125
00:06:52.360 --> 00:06:56.040
<v Speaker 1>also pay taxes in the United States like those are.

126
00:06:56.439 --> 00:06:58.399
<v Speaker 1>I think that's where most people are kind of in

127
00:06:58.439 --> 00:07:00.839
<v Speaker 1>that middle ground. And by the way, they don't even

128
00:07:00.879 --> 00:07:04.800
<v Speaker 1>necessarily have a problem with people from that quote unquote

129
00:07:04.839 --> 00:07:07.560
<v Speaker 1>don't look like them or any of the rest of

130
00:07:07.600 --> 00:07:11.759
<v Speaker 1>that if they feel that an orderly process, one that

131
00:07:11.879 --> 00:07:16.759
<v Speaker 1>is bore with information and necessity. And again, everybody knowing

132
00:07:16.800 --> 00:07:20.560
<v Speaker 1>who everybody is, doesn't necessarily have a problem with that.

133
00:07:22.560 --> 00:07:29.959
<v Speaker 1>We're cool with that, but trying to compare fifty nine Bore,

134
00:07:30.120 --> 00:07:35.439
<v Speaker 1>you know, descendants coming from South Africa, many of which

135
00:07:36.240 --> 00:07:38.839
<v Speaker 1>I believe one of the thing was they wanted family units,

136
00:07:39.279 --> 00:07:43.079
<v Speaker 1>and they wanted people who have already been impact impacted

137
00:07:43.120 --> 00:07:48.000
<v Speaker 1>by either violent events or having essentially their livelihood taken

138
00:07:48.040 --> 00:07:53.600
<v Speaker 1>from them. And I want you to really understand what's

139
00:07:53.600 --> 00:07:56.759
<v Speaker 1>going on over in South Africa. I understand apartheid and

140
00:07:56.800 --> 00:07:58.600
<v Speaker 1>all of this, and it's got a crazy history, but

141
00:07:59.319 --> 00:08:03.360
<v Speaker 1>acting live and I saw somebody breaking this down, acting

142
00:08:03.480 --> 00:08:08.199
<v Speaker 1>like the Bore are not native to South Africa in

143
00:08:08.360 --> 00:08:13.519
<v Speaker 1>the sense of the formalization of the country is really disingenuous.

144
00:08:14.680 --> 00:08:18.240
<v Speaker 1>You know, the quote unquote bore the white portion of

145
00:08:18.279 --> 00:08:20.519
<v Speaker 1>what's settled it and by the way, it's not always white.

146
00:08:20.600 --> 00:08:22.480
<v Speaker 1>I would just point this out too, there's some North

147
00:08:22.519 --> 00:08:29.160
<v Speaker 1>African stuff in there. They settled what is South Africa

148
00:08:29.160 --> 00:08:32.480
<v Speaker 1>in that area, and specifically they're around Cape Horn in

149
00:08:32.559 --> 00:08:40.000
<v Speaker 1>like sixteen twenty. So you know, it's the same dumb argument. Essentially,

150
00:08:40.200 --> 00:08:44.399
<v Speaker 1>it has the same pathway that the United States did,

151
00:08:45.120 --> 00:08:50.679
<v Speaker 1>that Australia did, that Canada did, where you had people

152
00:08:50.720 --> 00:08:54.279
<v Speaker 1>who are quote white you know, explorers or immigrants or

153
00:08:54.320 --> 00:08:57.679
<v Speaker 1>any of the rest who came to an area where yes,

154
00:08:57.799 --> 00:09:02.279
<v Speaker 1>you absolutely had people, you know, South Africa and those

155
00:09:02.320 --> 00:09:05.919
<v Speaker 1>areas down there had multiple tribes there who had their

156
00:09:05.919 --> 00:09:10.679
<v Speaker 1>own territories and it turned into a conquered situation. The

157
00:09:10.720 --> 00:09:15.960
<v Speaker 1>difference is South Africa decided to basically reverse all of that.

158
00:09:16.159 --> 00:09:18.120
<v Speaker 1>But to act like the boar are just people who

159
00:09:18.200 --> 00:09:21.759
<v Speaker 1>showed up, you know, five minutes ago is not accurate.

160
00:09:23.159 --> 00:09:27.679
<v Speaker 1>So and you see what's going on over there, and

161
00:09:27.720 --> 00:09:30.720
<v Speaker 1>so you have fifty nine of I don't know if

162
00:09:30.720 --> 00:09:32.240
<v Speaker 1>you saw any of the video, by the way, do

163
00:09:32.240 --> 00:09:34.879
<v Speaker 1>you see them all walking and waving American flags? That

164
00:09:35.000 --> 00:09:38.360
<v Speaker 1>was a nice touch because and it's not that they

165
00:09:38.399 --> 00:09:41.200
<v Speaker 1>have to wave the American flag. It's this thing that

166
00:09:41.279 --> 00:09:45.120
<v Speaker 1>has the chick over on MSNBC absolutely apoplectic.

167
00:09:45.279 --> 00:09:47.919
<v Speaker 5>So the Trump administration, they're saying that essentially these white

168
00:09:47.960 --> 00:09:51.000
<v Speaker 5>South Africans assimilate better and they're also not as as

169
00:09:51.120 --> 00:09:54.240
<v Speaker 5>much of a security risk. That's really causing a lot

170
00:09:54.320 --> 00:09:58.279
<v Speaker 5>of people to be appalled. Frankly, and I also tell

171
00:09:58.279 --> 00:10:00.440
<v Speaker 5>people that there's violence that they're talking about that are

172
00:10:00.440 --> 00:10:02.799
<v Speaker 5>dealing with these Afrikaners I've been hearing from people that

173
00:10:02.840 --> 00:10:04.840
<v Speaker 5>say there is violence in South Africa, but it's affecting

174
00:10:04.879 --> 00:10:06.639
<v Speaker 5>everybody of every single race.

175
00:10:06.720 --> 00:10:09.559
<v Speaker 1>Katie, all right, yeah, let me go back to this

176
00:10:09.639 --> 00:10:11.080
<v Speaker 1>first part of this thing you said.

177
00:10:11.200 --> 00:10:13.799
<v Speaker 5>So the Trump administration, they're saying that essentially, these white

178
00:10:13.840 --> 00:10:16.879
<v Speaker 5>South Africans assimilate better and they're also not as as

179
00:10:17.000 --> 00:10:18.279
<v Speaker 5>much of a security risk.

180
00:10:19.480 --> 00:10:22.159
<v Speaker 1>How is that wrong? Do you know why they're probably

181
00:10:22.159 --> 00:10:24.759
<v Speaker 1>going to assimilate better? Ross, Do you think you can

182
00:10:24.840 --> 00:10:27.639
<v Speaker 1>pick a touch one thing that maybe will help them

183
00:10:27.720 --> 00:10:32.039
<v Speaker 1>assimilate better into US society? Being front and it is

184
00:10:32.080 --> 00:10:34.559
<v Speaker 1>not about the fact that they're white even what what

185
00:10:34.639 --> 00:10:36.759
<v Speaker 1>do what trait do you think they might have that

186
00:10:36.799 --> 00:10:41.080
<v Speaker 1>would be helpful in assimilating. Uh, they speak English. Yeah,

187
00:10:41.360 --> 00:10:45.960
<v Speaker 1>that's pretty helpful, that's what you're looking for. But no,

188
00:10:46.200 --> 00:10:49.080
<v Speaker 1>that's no, that's that's that is if when you talked

189
00:10:49.080 --> 00:10:54.480
<v Speaker 1>about assimilation, the ability to communicate, that's gonna be It's

190
00:10:54.519 --> 00:10:58.120
<v Speaker 1>your strongest tool in the bag, right there, Man, that's

191
00:10:58.159 --> 00:11:00.440
<v Speaker 1>your strongest tool in the bag. For any of you

192
00:11:00.480 --> 00:11:04.519
<v Speaker 1>who have traveled or if English is your second language,

193
00:11:05.440 --> 00:11:09.200
<v Speaker 1>right you understand being surrounded by a bunch of people

194
00:11:09.240 --> 00:11:13.000
<v Speaker 1>you can't communicate with and yeah, we got to google

195
00:11:13.080 --> 00:11:16.200
<v Speaker 1>you Google Translate and all this stuff. But your day

196
00:11:16.240 --> 00:11:20.000
<v Speaker 1>to day is hampered and hindered by that. That's why.

197
00:11:20.120 --> 00:11:22.679
<v Speaker 1>And I know that this. I would tell anyone who

198
00:11:22.759 --> 00:11:27.279
<v Speaker 1>moves to the US learn the language. Well, it's not

199
00:11:27.440 --> 00:11:32.039
<v Speaker 1>the official it's all games. You're playing games. Do you

200
00:11:32.240 --> 00:11:35.919
<v Speaker 1>want to as quickly as possible be able to communicate

201
00:11:36.039 --> 00:11:40.240
<v Speaker 1>form bonds and friendships that are part of society and

202
00:11:40.399 --> 00:11:42.759
<v Speaker 1>help you assimilate. May help you get a job down

203
00:11:42.799 --> 00:11:47.799
<v Speaker 1>the road, help your kids. Yes, and if if you

204
00:11:47.960 --> 00:11:51.559
<v Speaker 1>move somewhere else, learn the language so that you can

205
00:11:51.559 --> 00:11:52.840
<v Speaker 1>communicate with people.

206
00:11:53.159 --> 00:11:56.200
<v Speaker 4>It's just constantly mind numbing and mind blowing. It's like

207
00:11:56.240 --> 00:11:58.120
<v Speaker 4>you know, you're leaving a place that you don't want

208
00:11:58.120 --> 00:12:00.600
<v Speaker 4>to be, right, there's a reason you're coming here, and

209
00:12:00.600 --> 00:12:02.919
<v Speaker 4>then when you come here, you're choosing not to assimilate

210
00:12:02.960 --> 00:12:05.120
<v Speaker 4>and make your life more difficult.

211
00:12:05.159 --> 00:12:10.399
<v Speaker 1>It makes no sense. Well, we're materializing in separate community centers.

212
00:12:10.559 --> 00:12:12.879
<v Speaker 1>Is what happens. When you have the scale that we have,

213
00:12:13.960 --> 00:12:15.600
<v Speaker 1>it's a lot harder to go. I'm not going to

214
00:12:15.679 --> 00:12:19.559
<v Speaker 1>learn English if there's five people around that you know

215
00:12:19.600 --> 00:12:22.159
<v Speaker 1>who speak whatever your language is. It's a hell of

216
00:12:22.200 --> 00:12:26.559
<v Speaker 1>a lot harder if nineteen twenty million other people primarily

217
00:12:26.559 --> 00:12:30.240
<v Speaker 1>speak the language, and then who tend to block and

218
00:12:30.399 --> 00:12:35.720
<v Speaker 1>live together. Like every community listening right now has a

219
00:12:35.759 --> 00:12:38.879
<v Speaker 1>part of town that's known as a not in a

220
00:12:38.960 --> 00:12:43.240
<v Speaker 1>derogatory way. Necessarily, it's because we tend to coalesce around

221
00:12:43.240 --> 00:12:47.120
<v Speaker 1>people that look like us and are like us. So

222
00:12:47.679 --> 00:12:50.000
<v Speaker 1>you guys go north to the radio station and Raleigh

223
00:12:50.039 --> 00:12:54.360
<v Speaker 1>here and where that Walmart is, and where all those

224
00:12:54.360 --> 00:12:56.720
<v Speaker 1>shops where you got all the international food. There's like

225
00:12:56.960 --> 00:13:03.600
<v Speaker 1>three Hispanic grocery stores. There's a lot more traditional Latin

226
00:13:03.639 --> 00:13:07.039
<v Speaker 1>American country food places where you're gonna get the tripe,

227
00:13:07.039 --> 00:13:08.799
<v Speaker 1>you're gonna get the menudo, you're gonna get all the

228
00:13:08.799 --> 00:13:11.480
<v Speaker 1>stuff that most people don't go to your chain Mexican

229
00:13:11.519 --> 00:13:17.519
<v Speaker 1>restaurant to get. There are financial institutions that cater to

230
00:13:17.720 --> 00:13:22.039
<v Speaker 1>people who are who have family back in other parts

231
00:13:22.080 --> 00:13:25.159
<v Speaker 1>of the world for the purpose of sending money. It

232
00:13:25.279 --> 00:13:28.759
<v Speaker 1>documents all kinds of stuff, and so people coalesce around

233
00:13:28.799 --> 00:13:30.159
<v Speaker 1>with that. It's a hell of a lot harder to

234
00:13:30.200 --> 00:13:34.039
<v Speaker 1>do that if there's not twenty million to choose from

235
00:13:34.039 --> 00:13:37.240
<v Speaker 1>in a country this size, So it hampers that ability,

236
00:13:38.000 --> 00:13:40.399
<v Speaker 1>but learn the language, and the second thing is less

237
00:13:40.440 --> 00:13:42.840
<v Speaker 1>of a security risk. I believe they're saying that because

238
00:13:42.879 --> 00:13:46.960
<v Speaker 1>they spent two months vetting them rather than them walking in,

239
00:13:48.039 --> 00:13:51.440
<v Speaker 1>handing them some sort of court date they're never going

240
00:13:51.480 --> 00:13:54.480
<v Speaker 1>to show up, and then relocating them on our dime

241
00:13:54.519 --> 00:13:57.000
<v Speaker 1>to the internal part of the US and putting them

242
00:13:57.080 --> 00:13:58.200
<v Speaker 1>up in hotels and stuff.

243
00:13:58.200 --> 00:13:59.639
<v Speaker 4>I mean, and there does seem to be over there

244
00:13:59.759 --> 00:14:02.480
<v Speaker 4>is specific race of people that are being hunted down

245
00:14:02.519 --> 00:14:04.840
<v Speaker 4>because of their race, and they're laying stolen and taken away.

246
00:14:04.879 --> 00:14:06.440
<v Speaker 1>They're just songs about me.

247
00:14:07.039 --> 00:14:09.200
<v Speaker 4>There's a word for that some people, and it's very

248
00:14:09.200 --> 00:14:11.600
<v Speaker 4>popular among the younger kids now when it comes to

249
00:14:11.639 --> 00:14:12.399
<v Speaker 4>a certain part.

250
00:14:12.279 --> 00:14:13.879
<v Speaker 1>Of the most dangerous game, that.

251
00:14:13.799 --> 00:14:17.840
<v Speaker 4>Would be genocide, right, they like using that word now. Yeah,

252
00:14:17.960 --> 00:14:20.519
<v Speaker 4>and some would say yeah, so someone say that's sort

253
00:14:20.559 --> 00:14:21.559
<v Speaker 4>of what what that is.

254
00:14:22.399 --> 00:14:25.279
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, Well, I think the problem is is they'll push

255
00:14:25.360 --> 00:14:27.399
<v Speaker 1>back and go, well, they're not really putting up real

256
00:14:27.480 --> 00:14:31.960
<v Speaker 1>numbers yet, And I'm like, so, I have a thought,

257
00:14:32.159 --> 00:14:35.240
<v Speaker 1>maybe if we think something is headed a little genocide,

258
00:14:36.039 --> 00:14:38.440
<v Speaker 1>we don't wait for them to put up real numbers

259
00:14:38.720 --> 00:14:42.720
<v Speaker 1>like Aba andle. They're putting up real numbers no, no, no, no.

260
00:14:42.840 --> 00:14:44.440
<v Speaker 4>I mean I think that's the main complaint that a

261
00:14:44.440 --> 00:14:47.840
<v Speaker 4>lot of people have that still have some brain cells left,

262
00:14:47.879 --> 00:14:50.200
<v Speaker 4>where it's like, if you're here, you're coming here for

263
00:14:50.240 --> 00:14:52.639
<v Speaker 4>a reason, you should want to assimilate. Now, listen, you

264
00:14:52.639 --> 00:14:54.159
<v Speaker 4>can be proud of where you came from. We have

265
00:14:54.200 --> 00:14:57.879
<v Speaker 4>sat Patrick's, We love that in this country. That's fine, right,

266
00:14:57.879 --> 00:15:00.440
<v Speaker 4>but you are now an American, which means you should

267
00:15:00.440 --> 00:15:02.720
<v Speaker 4>be appre Not only is the people that come over

268
00:15:02.759 --> 00:15:05.039
<v Speaker 4>here and then refuse to learn the language or assimilate,

269
00:15:05.240 --> 00:15:08.559
<v Speaker 4>but then they complain about the country, like where did

270
00:15:08.600 --> 00:15:12.600
<v Speaker 4>you just come from? Why did you come here? Shut up, assimilate,

271
00:15:12.720 --> 00:15:15.399
<v Speaker 4>appreciate what you have because it's pretty damn awesome here.

272
00:15:15.919 --> 00:15:16.120
<v Speaker 2>Yeah.

273
00:15:16.159 --> 00:15:18.960
<v Speaker 1>Do we play the audio of the guy who's upset

274
00:15:19.039 --> 00:15:22.320
<v Speaker 1>because they want eating. They you can't put up in

275
00:15:22.480 --> 00:15:25.840
<v Speaker 1>closed beach enclosures because you know, people put up big tents.

276
00:15:26.279 --> 00:15:29.799
<v Speaker 1>And they were really upset because when their Muslim wives

277
00:15:29.840 --> 00:15:32.000
<v Speaker 1>come onto the beach, they can't be seen to be

278
00:15:32.039 --> 00:15:34.200
<v Speaker 1>eating and then they have to leave. And so they

279
00:15:34.240 --> 00:15:35.960
<v Speaker 1>want to be able to put up like eating tents

280
00:15:36.000 --> 00:15:38.360
<v Speaker 1>so the women can't because no men can watch the

281
00:15:38.399 --> 00:15:40.799
<v Speaker 1>women eat or something and I'm like, is you want

282
00:15:40.840 --> 00:15:44.279
<v Speaker 1>to ruin everybody's beach for that? But I can't have one,

283
00:15:44.320 --> 00:15:47.480
<v Speaker 1>so I don't. My Irish skin doesn't burst into flames

284
00:15:47.519 --> 00:15:50.679
<v Speaker 1>the moment the sun hits it. What are we doing here?

285
00:15:51.240 --> 00:15:53.559
<v Speaker 1>This is a no brainer. Fifty nine people who already

286
00:15:53.559 --> 00:15:56.080
<v Speaker 1>speak English, many of a secured employment, who did a

287
00:15:56.120 --> 00:15:59.519
<v Speaker 1>two month vetting process. All you're doing is highlighting what's

288
00:15:59.519 --> 00:16:03.000
<v Speaker 1>going on in South Africa. Congrats. We'll be back from

289
00:16:03.080 --> 00:16:06.200
<v Speaker 1>phone number eight eight eight nine three four seven eight

290
00:16:06.240 --> 00:16:09.240
<v Speaker 1>seven four if you want to opine on any of

291
00:16:09.320 --> 00:16:12.960
<v Speaker 1>the stuff we're chatting about, which I will include a

292
00:16:12.960 --> 00:16:16.440
<v Speaker 1>lot of fun audio to interviews and even a lightsaber attack. So,

293
00:16:17.320 --> 00:16:19.440
<v Speaker 1>although not really, I feel like you should not be

294
00:16:19.519 --> 00:16:22.120
<v Speaker 1>able to use the language and a headline Nebraska and

295
00:16:22.200 --> 00:16:26.679
<v Speaker 1>jailed for lightsaber attacks if we're not using an actual lightsaber,

296
00:16:28.600 --> 00:16:30.679
<v Speaker 1>because if not, it's just it's a kid's.

297
00:16:30.399 --> 00:16:33.879
<v Speaker 4>Toy at that point, Rightly, if somebody is arrested for that, yeah,

298
00:16:33.919 --> 00:16:37.240
<v Speaker 4>you know, an actual lightsaber attack, I would hope somebody

299
00:16:37.240 --> 00:16:40.080
<v Speaker 4>from like the Department of Defense or somebody would quickly

300
00:16:40.320 --> 00:16:42.799
<v Speaker 4>get that person in a cell or somebody and figure

301
00:16:42.799 --> 00:16:45.519
<v Speaker 4>out where you got that technology. For wow, really yeah,

302
00:16:45.600 --> 00:16:47.080
<v Speaker 4>immediately what if they're.

303
00:16:47.000 --> 00:16:49.360
<v Speaker 1>Just an inventor and now they're all cheesed because they

304
00:16:49.360 --> 00:16:52.320
<v Speaker 1>invented a lightsaber and you threw them in, going well, congrats,

305
00:16:52.399 --> 00:16:55.399
<v Speaker 1>now you work for the government. Okay, so we'll put

306
00:16:55.440 --> 00:16:58.559
<v Speaker 1>them in New Mexico or whatever they're and good fire,

307
00:16:58.639 --> 00:17:03.559
<v Speaker 1>no like that, what's just the like uh data and

308
00:17:03.840 --> 00:17:07.160
<v Speaker 1>yeah Brett Brett Spinder, Yeah, yeah, Brett Speiner and they

309
00:17:07.200 --> 00:17:10.880
<v Speaker 1>just keep under area fifty one there. Yeah to rask

310
00:17:10.920 --> 00:17:14.119
<v Speaker 1>a man behind bars after a pair of felony charges

311
00:17:14.200 --> 00:17:17.839
<v Speaker 1>for allegedly striking a female neighbor and the woman's seven

312
00:17:17.880 --> 00:17:22.079
<v Speaker 1>year old daughter with a Star Wars lightsaber, except they

313
00:17:22.119 --> 00:17:27.599
<v Speaker 1>didn't if it was a Star Wars lightsaber right uh ross,

314
00:17:27.680 --> 00:17:29.920
<v Speaker 1>after you're seeing that scene that you sent me in

315
00:17:30.400 --> 00:17:33.640
<v Speaker 1>and or with the lightsaber like spinny wheel things on

316
00:17:33.680 --> 00:17:39.400
<v Speaker 1>the ship, which we're our nerd correspondence says they're not lightsabers,

317
00:17:39.480 --> 00:17:44.079
<v Speaker 1>like yeah, whatever, he's in denial. Tell me somebody's rocking

318
00:17:44.160 --> 00:17:47.960
<v Speaker 1>those things. Man, you should get some for your for

319
00:17:48.000 --> 00:17:50.960
<v Speaker 1>your rail dude, that'd be great, and then you can

320
00:17:51.000 --> 00:17:54.000
<v Speaker 1>cut toll boost down when they start tolling Capitol Boulevard

321
00:17:54.079 --> 00:17:57.279
<v Speaker 1>up by your house. So would that even affect.

322
00:17:56.880 --> 00:17:59.400
<v Speaker 4>You, by the way the proposal, it would not, because

323
00:17:59.440 --> 00:18:01.960
<v Speaker 4>I never i've down Capitol Boulevard. I avoid it like

324
00:18:02.000 --> 00:18:04.960
<v Speaker 4>the plague. However it might affect my commune. Well, it's

325
00:18:05.000 --> 00:18:07.039
<v Speaker 4>not gonna affect my commute because my commute at three

326
00:18:07.119 --> 00:18:09.079
<v Speaker 4>thirty in the morning, and then after the show, I'm

327
00:18:09.079 --> 00:18:11.039
<v Speaker 4>going the opposite way, so it'll be fine. But I

328
00:18:11.079 --> 00:18:12.720
<v Speaker 4>always go like the long way down like falls of

329
00:18:12.759 --> 00:18:13.839
<v Speaker 4>news in Atlantic and stuff.

330
00:18:13.880 --> 00:18:16.000
<v Speaker 1>So with the with the new falls of news.

331
00:18:15.799 --> 00:18:19.599
<v Speaker 4>Yeah yeah, so I imagine like people might actually stop going

332
00:18:19.640 --> 00:18:22.559
<v Speaker 4>to Capitol and start going my way instead, so it

333
00:18:22.640 --> 00:18:25.039
<v Speaker 4>might be more congested, but once again, it's three thirty

334
00:18:25.039 --> 00:18:26.079
<v Speaker 4>in the morning, so I'll be fine.

335
00:18:26.440 --> 00:18:26.640
<v Speaker 2>Yeah.

336
00:18:26.720 --> 00:18:26.759
<v Speaker 6>No.

337
00:18:27.279 --> 00:18:30.000
<v Speaker 1>That's the one thing about doing the morning radio, all

338
00:18:30.039 --> 00:18:32.839
<v Speaker 1>the traffic reports. In your mind, you're always like, what

339
00:18:32.839 --> 00:18:36.480
<v Speaker 1>what traffic? I've never seen no traffic, what are you

340
00:18:36.519 --> 00:18:39.759
<v Speaker 1>talking about? But uh yeah, man, they want to toll

341
00:18:39.799 --> 00:18:42.759
<v Speaker 1>it now they're talking about tolling. And by the way,

342
00:18:42.799 --> 00:18:46.440
<v Speaker 1>it would be five forty north up to what was

343
00:18:46.480 --> 00:18:49.160
<v Speaker 1>it ninety five, just kind of your guys's main cut

344
00:18:49.160 --> 00:18:52.119
<v Speaker 1>off up there in the wake forest, the cartel capital

345
00:18:52.119 --> 00:18:54.000
<v Speaker 1>of North Carolina. How do you like that one? By

346
00:18:54.000 --> 00:18:56.200
<v Speaker 1>the way, since you guys had a cartel kidnapping there,

347
00:18:56.920 --> 00:19:00.160
<v Speaker 1>technically you you were there where they held them the

348
00:19:00.200 --> 00:19:03.880
<v Speaker 1>kidnapping occurred. But I gotta think of something, so we'll

349
00:19:03.920 --> 00:19:07.640
<v Speaker 1>go with that. So basically it's that which is an

350
00:19:07.720 --> 00:19:10.839
<v Speaker 1>awful road to try to drive during rush hour. I

351
00:19:10.920 --> 00:19:13.880
<v Speaker 1>get it. I've made the mistake over the years of

352
00:19:13.960 --> 00:19:15.720
<v Speaker 1>being like I'm gonna head I gotta head up to

353
00:19:15.799 --> 00:19:18.000
<v Speaker 1>Wake Forest and it's five o'clock. What's the worst that

354
00:19:18.039 --> 00:19:20.839
<v Speaker 1>could happen? And then just trying to go up Capital

355
00:19:20.880 --> 00:19:24.440
<v Speaker 1>Boulevard and it's just like, oh man, oh this sucks.

356
00:19:24.519 --> 00:19:24.920
<v Speaker 1>I don't know.

357
00:19:25.240 --> 00:19:27.319
<v Speaker 4>I've always like, for some reason, like I don't like

358
00:19:27.400 --> 00:19:31.119
<v Speaker 4>five forty. It gives me bad vibes. There's no explanation.

359
00:19:31.200 --> 00:19:33.640
<v Speaker 4>It's completely irrational. But Marky will tell you like every

360
00:19:33.640 --> 00:19:35.440
<v Speaker 4>time we have to get on five forty to go somewhere,

361
00:19:35.559 --> 00:19:36.680
<v Speaker 4>like I hate this road.

362
00:19:37.039 --> 00:19:41.680
<v Speaker 1>Okay, that's something. That's the thing. How do you go

363
00:19:41.759 --> 00:19:43.599
<v Speaker 1>to how if you were going over to Durham, Well,

364
00:19:43.599 --> 00:19:45.160
<v Speaker 1>I guess you'd go up to ninety eight and go

365
00:19:45.240 --> 00:19:46.119
<v Speaker 1>Why would I go to Durham?

366
00:19:46.119 --> 00:19:46.519
<v Speaker 3>Why would I?

367
00:19:46.599 --> 00:19:48.359
<v Speaker 1>Why would I leave, I go to Wake Forest and

368
00:19:48.400 --> 00:19:50.799
<v Speaker 1>the work. That's where I go. Let's just say that

369
00:19:50.880 --> 00:19:53.799
<v Speaker 1>there's free lightsabers, they're real, and have to drive to

370
00:19:53.880 --> 00:19:56.839
<v Speaker 1>Durham to get one. Okay, I will go down the

371
00:19:56.920 --> 00:19:59.519
<v Speaker 1>long like ninety eight to Durham from Wake. Yeah, okay,

372
00:19:59.559 --> 00:20:03.640
<v Speaker 1>that would make more sense. I but like, you know,

373
00:20:03.720 --> 00:20:05.200
<v Speaker 1>five forty if you got to go to the beach,

374
00:20:05.200 --> 00:20:06.640
<v Speaker 1>would be unavoidable, right.

375
00:20:08.279 --> 00:20:10.000
<v Speaker 4>Uh no, Well, I mean then you could drive down

376
00:20:10.039 --> 00:20:12.319
<v Speaker 4>Capitol all the way to right here in Highwoods and

377
00:20:12.319 --> 00:20:14.240
<v Speaker 4>take you know, four Ford, the belt line whatever.

378
00:20:14.400 --> 00:20:16.240
<v Speaker 1>I mean, you could. But that's what we that's what

379
00:20:16.440 --> 00:20:19.039
<v Speaker 1>that's what we tend to do. I got you, all right,

380
00:20:20.039 --> 00:20:22.920
<v Speaker 1>So yeah, you're right, there's no reason try five forty.

381
00:20:25.000 --> 00:20:26.839
<v Speaker 4>And I'm not saying there isn't a reason. I'm saying

382
00:20:26.880 --> 00:20:28.200
<v Speaker 4>I don't like it. I don't know what if you

383
00:20:28.200 --> 00:20:28.480
<v Speaker 4>had to go.

384
00:20:28.480 --> 00:20:31.920
<v Speaker 1>To Briar Creek, I guess then then yeah, So I

385
00:20:31.920 --> 00:20:33.920
<v Speaker 1>don't know. There's some roads you just avoid. I'll tell you.

386
00:20:33.960 --> 00:20:36.599
<v Speaker 1>I'll tell you. Yeah, the road that is very useful

387
00:20:36.880 --> 00:20:39.200
<v Speaker 1>whenever I'm over in Greensboro, But every time I get

388
00:20:39.200 --> 00:20:41.799
<v Speaker 1>on it, I want to like, I want to pit maneuver.

389
00:20:41.839 --> 00:20:45.880
<v Speaker 1>Everybody is wind over during rush hour, which is kind

390
00:20:45.920 --> 00:20:47.799
<v Speaker 1>of I don't know if you're familiar with it ross

391
00:20:47.880 --> 00:20:50.279
<v Speaker 1>very much, but it's kind of a highway, but it's

392
00:20:50.359 --> 00:20:52.759
<v Speaker 1>kind of not a highway. It's like a road basically.

393
00:20:53.079 --> 00:20:56.279
<v Speaker 1>And but if you get over by like we're Greenbrier

394
00:20:56.400 --> 00:21:01.200
<v Speaker 1>or not Greenbrier, h Green Valley Grill and and the

395
00:21:01.359 --> 00:21:04.759
<v Speaker 1>hotel over there, and or if you're coming you know,

396
00:21:04.920 --> 00:21:08.000
<v Speaker 1>to go further, like take it over towards high Point

397
00:21:08.079 --> 00:21:11.720
<v Speaker 1>or whatever. It can be rather contentious and not much fun.

398
00:21:12.440 --> 00:21:14.279
<v Speaker 1>But there's not really a great way to avoid it.

399
00:21:14.400 --> 00:21:17.000
<v Speaker 1>Five forty right, there's a lot of work work around there.

400
00:21:17.000 --> 00:21:21.880
<v Speaker 1>But now if they put Capital Boulevard northward, yeah, it's

401
00:21:22.000 --> 00:21:25.359
<v Speaker 1>just weird, man, But that is something they're talking about,

402
00:21:25.519 --> 00:21:26.119
<v Speaker 1>you know what it is.

403
00:21:26.160 --> 00:21:27.799
<v Speaker 4>I think I had like a flat once in five

404
00:21:27.960 --> 00:21:30.599
<v Speaker 4>forty and ever since then, I'm like, it's just bad

405
00:21:30.680 --> 00:21:31.400
<v Speaker 4>like association.

406
00:21:31.519 --> 00:21:34.519
<v Speaker 1>It's like bad vibes. You had a British apartment on

407
00:21:34.599 --> 00:21:38.960
<v Speaker 1>five forty. It's irrational, no idea, why okay, no, man,

408
00:21:39.039 --> 00:21:41.480
<v Speaker 1>you just it's like, uh, you know, it's like a

409
00:21:41.519 --> 00:21:44.200
<v Speaker 1>dog got hit by somebody one time and now they

410
00:21:44.319 --> 00:21:45.240
<v Speaker 1>can now around them.

411
00:21:45.240 --> 00:21:46.279
<v Speaker 4>I mean, I don't know if you know this, but

412
00:21:46.319 --> 00:21:50.720
<v Speaker 4>I'm a real superstitious person. No, yeah, come on, what

413
00:21:51.440 --> 00:21:52.960
<v Speaker 4>so yeah, I mean it's just how I am.

414
00:21:53.839 --> 00:21:55.640
<v Speaker 1>Like, Yeah, I'm not going on that road. It's bad,

415
00:21:55.680 --> 00:21:58.079
<v Speaker 1>it's bad news. But you have a doll that has

416
00:21:58.079 --> 00:22:00.640
<v Speaker 1>a demon in it now and it doesn't have a

417
00:22:00.720 --> 00:22:02.359
<v Speaker 1>deem and it brings me joy, And don't you steal

418
00:22:02.400 --> 00:22:03.759
<v Speaker 1>that from me. I don't know why.

419
00:22:03.799 --> 00:22:05.759
<v Speaker 4>That's like your thing where like if somebody has joy,

420
00:22:05.759 --> 00:22:06.839
<v Speaker 4>you're like, I need to take it away.

421
00:22:06.920 --> 00:22:09.000
<v Speaker 1>Because I heard it. I think you see you have

422
00:22:09.039 --> 00:22:12.039
<v Speaker 1>no joy in your life. I heard it. I heard

423
00:22:12.160 --> 00:22:16.440
<v Speaker 1>I saw the video you posted of the doll. Because

424
00:22:16.480 --> 00:22:19.160
<v Speaker 1>it's how old what you know, probably what thirty years

425
00:22:19.200 --> 00:22:21.519
<v Speaker 1>old or something? I mean yeah, probably a little bit

426
00:22:21.559 --> 00:22:25.240
<v Speaker 1>younger than us. Yeah, and you pull the pull string

427
00:22:25.400 --> 00:22:30.440
<v Speaker 1>and it works still kind of kind of sort of

428
00:22:30.480 --> 00:22:33.960
<v Speaker 1>maybe do we have any do we have any of

429
00:22:33.960 --> 00:22:39.119
<v Speaker 1>that audio? Nope? Okay, well you posted if you if

430
00:22:39.119 --> 00:22:40.599
<v Speaker 1>you go to Ross's twitter or can you post it

431
00:22:40.640 --> 00:22:42.960
<v Speaker 1>a video of it. I'm just saying it. It it

432
00:22:43.240 --> 00:22:51.720
<v Speaker 1>the It sounds less earnest and uh more uh Annabelle

433
00:22:51.759 --> 00:22:53.480
<v Speaker 1>at the moment, but that's but the fact that it

434
00:22:53.640 --> 00:22:56.920
<v Speaker 1>works and it's that old is actually quite impressive. Is

435
00:22:56.960 --> 00:22:58.319
<v Speaker 1>there a visible battery day?

436
00:22:58.880 --> 00:23:00.680
<v Speaker 4>It looks really good too. And I think there's something

437
00:23:00.720 --> 00:23:03.400
<v Speaker 4>wrong with the with the lips on it. I think

438
00:23:03.440 --> 00:23:05.720
<v Speaker 4>the lips were originally like red, but it's so old

439
00:23:05.759 --> 00:23:08.039
<v Speaker 4>now that like they've they've come off. So because the lip,

440
00:23:08.079 --> 00:23:10.559
<v Speaker 4>the lips sort of look like whiter than the rest

441
00:23:10.599 --> 00:23:14.119
<v Speaker 4>of the face on the earnest doll, like or maybe

442
00:23:14.119 --> 00:23:16.680
<v Speaker 4>he has some sort of disease. I don't know, I

443
00:23:16.680 --> 00:23:17.079
<v Speaker 4>don't know.

444
00:23:17.519 --> 00:23:22.359
<v Speaker 1>Maybe so, Uh, there is a possibility I was just

445
00:23:22.400 --> 00:23:25.680
<v Speaker 1>talking to say, there's a possibility that, uh, at the

446
00:23:25.759 --> 00:23:27.599
<v Speaker 1>end of the year and we take all the time off,

447
00:23:28.000 --> 00:23:30.799
<v Speaker 1>then I might go to Vegas or something for like

448
00:23:30.960 --> 00:23:34.440
<v Speaker 1>bowl stuff. This is literally early discussion. I you got

449
00:23:34.440 --> 00:23:37.799
<v Speaker 1>to take that thing to Rick bro Come on, man,

450
00:23:38.119 --> 00:23:40.200
<v Speaker 1>that'll do on that. That's one of my favorite things

451
00:23:40.279 --> 00:23:40.680
<v Speaker 1>right now.

452
00:23:41.480 --> 00:23:41.720
<v Speaker 7>Yeah.

453
00:23:41.880 --> 00:23:43.960
<v Speaker 1>No, I'm not saying actually sell it, but get it

454
00:23:43.960 --> 00:23:45.319
<v Speaker 1>all or take it to antique road.

455
00:23:45.400 --> 00:23:47.400
<v Speaker 4>I can't explain to you. And Marky sent me the

456
00:23:47.440 --> 00:23:50.519
<v Speaker 4>picture of it immediately. The thing brings me so much joy.

457
00:23:50.640 --> 00:23:52.359
<v Speaker 4>I'm like, this thing is one of the greatest.

458
00:23:52.200 --> 00:23:54.680
<v Speaker 1>I think it's awesome. Dude, I think it's awesome. I

459
00:23:54.720 --> 00:23:56.359
<v Speaker 1>just think I think it'd be really funny if you

460
00:23:56.400 --> 00:23:59.440
<v Speaker 1>should forget Rick's pond. Like if they did the antique

461
00:23:59.519 --> 00:24:01.960
<v Speaker 1>road show with the stodgy British people and you showed

462
00:24:02.039 --> 00:24:04.640
<v Speaker 1>up with that thing, right, some ladies got a ming

463
00:24:04.759 --> 00:24:08.799
<v Speaker 1>vase in front of you. Another guy's waiting with a faberge.

464
00:24:08.400 --> 00:24:11.160
<v Speaker 4>A A you're I'm just gonna push him aside, take

465
00:24:11.200 --> 00:24:13.039
<v Speaker 4>the egg, throw it on the ground because it's garbage,

466
00:24:13.079 --> 00:24:14.759
<v Speaker 4>and show my rest doll and.

467
00:24:14.680 --> 00:24:16.599
<v Speaker 1>Then put it in front of the British professor. Do

468
00:24:16.799 --> 00:24:19.079
<v Speaker 1>they're like, ah, check this thing out. Why are the

469
00:24:19.200 --> 00:24:23.160
<v Speaker 1>lights all flashing? It's because it's a it's a d

470
00:24:23.359 --> 00:24:27.200
<v Speaker 1>rude party. You didn't know that today it's it's a

471
00:24:27.319 --> 00:24:30.160
<v Speaker 1>it's a big techno party. All the lights are flashing.

472
00:24:31.279 --> 00:24:33.359
<v Speaker 1>I mean that's do you not do? Do you not wanna?

473
00:24:33.559 --> 00:24:35.119
<v Speaker 1>You not want to hear sandstorm? Come on?

474
00:24:35.119 --> 00:24:39.680
<v Speaker 4>And I would prefer all the power to stay on. Yes,

475
00:24:39.759 --> 00:24:40.519
<v Speaker 4>stay you know it.

476
00:24:40.799 --> 00:24:42.799
<v Speaker 1>Is my my ernest dollar knows you're messing with it,

477
00:24:42.839 --> 00:24:46.359
<v Speaker 1>and it's this is what you get. Isn't that weird? Huh?

478
00:24:46.640 --> 00:24:48.680
<v Speaker 1>Isn't that weird that the thing that happens in all

479
00:24:48.720 --> 00:24:52.400
<v Speaker 1>the movies when the demon's presence becomes known, just well,

480
00:24:52.440 --> 00:24:54.440
<v Speaker 1>now it happens to happen. It's okay because it's on

481
00:24:54.519 --> 00:24:58.359
<v Speaker 1>my side. Yes, okay, all right, but if I was you,

482
00:24:58.359 --> 00:25:00.839
<v Speaker 1>i'd be I'd be concerned. Well and all so I

483
00:25:01.599 --> 00:25:05.640
<v Speaker 1>put a big salt circle around ross there, so and

484
00:25:05.720 --> 00:25:07.640
<v Speaker 1>the dolls everything will be fine. Did you get all

485
00:25:07.640 --> 00:25:10.880
<v Speaker 1>these chicken talents? It's uh, well, I mean, we have

486
00:25:10.920 --> 00:25:13.279
<v Speaker 1>a lot of chicken production in North Carolina. It's gonna

487
00:25:13.279 --> 00:25:16.960
<v Speaker 1>be lots of different places. Five hundred chicken talents. I

488
00:25:17.000 --> 00:25:19.480
<v Speaker 1>got them from South Africa where they just had to

489
00:25:19.519 --> 00:25:22.400
<v Speaker 1>close their largest chicken manufacturer. Did you did you hear

490
00:25:22.440 --> 00:25:27.960
<v Speaker 1>about that? This is an actual story because the chicken

491
00:25:28.039 --> 00:25:30.640
<v Speaker 1>farm which was seized by the government had three hundred

492
00:25:30.680 --> 00:25:33.880
<v Speaker 1>and fifty thousand chickens on it and they forgot to

493
00:25:33.960 --> 00:25:39.160
<v Speaker 1>feed them, so they had all turned cannibal as you know,

494
00:25:39.319 --> 00:25:43.880
<v Speaker 1>as animals who eat whatever will do. So they then

495
00:25:43.960 --> 00:25:46.640
<v Speaker 1>had to euthanize. I think there was a million chickens.

496
00:25:46.680 --> 00:25:49.400
<v Speaker 1>Most of them ended up dying, and the three hundred

497
00:25:49.400 --> 00:25:51.319
<v Speaker 1>and fifty thousand that were left, they just had to

498
00:25:51.599 --> 00:25:53.559
<v Speaker 1>kill all of them. So it's an old I got

499
00:25:53.599 --> 00:25:55.200
<v Speaker 1>talons for days, bro, that's.

500
00:25:55.079 --> 00:25:58.640
<v Speaker 4>An old X Files episode from season one, Chaco's Chicken

501
00:25:58.680 --> 00:26:00.880
<v Speaker 4>in Arkansas. They go down there and like the chickens

502
00:26:00.880 --> 00:26:03.559
<v Speaker 4>are like, they eat the chickens. Yeah, chickens, and then

503
00:26:03.559 --> 00:26:06.759
<v Speaker 4>they eat the chicken. No, they're eating their feet. They're

504
00:26:07.160 --> 00:26:12.039
<v Speaker 4>sacrificing people in the town. Chickens are eating the feed

505
00:26:12.079 --> 00:26:15.079
<v Speaker 4>that has people in it. People eat the chickens and

506
00:26:15.160 --> 00:26:18.640
<v Speaker 4>they get like this this neurological disease I mean, which.

507
00:26:18.440 --> 00:26:20.480
<v Speaker 1>Is a real thing, by the way, you can get

508
00:26:20.839 --> 00:26:25.119
<v Speaker 1>eating human remains can can cause a neurological reaction in humans.

509
00:26:25.160 --> 00:26:32.039
<v Speaker 1>So yeah, I remember that episode absolutely. So anyway, yeah,

510
00:26:32.079 --> 00:26:35.240
<v Speaker 1>they just kind of forgot. So there's all the chicken

511
00:26:35.279 --> 00:26:38.279
<v Speaker 1>towns you could ever want, so and they're probably equally cursed.

512
00:26:38.400 --> 00:26:42.160
<v Speaker 1>So all right, six forty five. A random thing, Oh

513
00:26:42.200 --> 00:26:45.720
<v Speaker 1>I mentioned the pope is now the ladies over at

514
00:26:45.759 --> 00:26:48.559
<v Speaker 1>the view are a big fan. Do you want to hear?

515
00:26:48.599 --> 00:26:50.960
<v Speaker 1>Why you want to hear? Why you want to hear? Why?

516
00:26:51.160 --> 00:26:51.480
<v Speaker 3>Right?

517
00:26:51.599 --> 00:26:52.519
<v Speaker 1>Okay, here we go.

518
00:26:52.599 --> 00:26:56.400
<v Speaker 8>One other thing that's also very interesting to me because

519
00:26:56.799 --> 00:27:01.799
<v Speaker 8>President Trump, as you remember, called Haiti a certain type

520
00:27:01.799 --> 00:27:05.799
<v Speaker 8>of country. As it turns out, our new American pope

521
00:27:05.880 --> 00:27:10.000
<v Speaker 8>has Haitian and black roots, So we actually.

522
00:27:09.440 --> 00:27:12.559
<v Speaker 6>Have a black coach apparent.

523
00:27:12.680 --> 00:27:15.839
<v Speaker 8>Really, it's like Chef's kiss for me. So apparently, both

524
00:27:15.880 --> 00:27:21.000
<v Speaker 8>of his maternal grandparents are described as black, Haitian or

525
00:27:21.079 --> 00:27:25.799
<v Speaker 8>mulatto in several census documents and on their marriage license.

526
00:27:26.279 --> 00:27:30.960
<v Speaker 8>His birth the grandfather's birth place is Haiti listed is Haiti.

527
00:27:31.240 --> 00:27:34.200
<v Speaker 8>Her birthplace is listed as born in New Orleans. They

528
00:27:34.200 --> 00:27:37.240
<v Speaker 8>were identified as people of color, but in nineteen twenty,

529
00:27:37.240 --> 00:27:42.000
<v Speaker 8>when they migrated to Chicago, the census reflected their race

530
00:27:42.079 --> 00:27:45.400
<v Speaker 8>as white. Everything I'm loving, I'm enjoying it.

531
00:27:46.640 --> 00:27:49.160
<v Speaker 1>There's like this picture of him. She got that thing

532
00:27:49.279 --> 00:27:51.200
<v Speaker 1>she added at the end, by the way, where and

533
00:27:51.240 --> 00:27:54.279
<v Speaker 1>then they moved to Chicago and they were listed as

534
00:27:54.319 --> 00:27:57.759
<v Speaker 1>white in the census, which, by the way, I don't

535
00:27:57.799 --> 00:27:59.440
<v Speaker 1>know all this stuff there and believe it or not,

536
00:28:00.599 --> 00:28:07.160
<v Speaker 1>and she has to know this has Haiti is the

537
00:28:07.200 --> 00:28:10.839
<v Speaker 1>result of a slave revolt the Chrown, I say, the

538
00:28:10.920 --> 00:28:14.960
<v Speaker 1>current function of government, and that's not a judgment, think

539
00:28:15.039 --> 00:28:18.559
<v Speaker 1>that's the reality of it. However, there were a lot

540
00:28:18.599 --> 00:28:21.440
<v Speaker 1>of white people prior to that, and even post that

541
00:28:21.440 --> 00:28:27.000
<v Speaker 1>that lived there or were intermixed, and Haiti started escalating

542
00:28:29.319 --> 00:28:35.000
<v Speaker 1>how black you had to be to not be on

543
00:28:35.079 --> 00:28:38.279
<v Speaker 1>the wrong end of whatever government was there, and so

544
00:28:38.359 --> 00:28:40.640
<v Speaker 1>you had a lot of people including it sounds like

545
00:28:40.680 --> 00:28:44.240
<v Speaker 1>the pope's family who left because it was the same

546
00:28:44.319 --> 00:28:47.000
<v Speaker 1>game that was played in the South with percentage of

547
00:28:47.079 --> 00:28:50.440
<v Speaker 1>stuff for the purpose of marriage. Right, are you this percentage? Right?

548
00:28:50.799 --> 00:28:54.359
<v Speaker 1>And like she she has to know this, like I

549
00:28:54.359 --> 00:28:57.319
<v Speaker 1>don't care. I'm not I don't care what the pope's

550
00:28:57.319 --> 00:29:02.319
<v Speaker 1>descendants are. But until you literally read that article, not

551
00:29:02.440 --> 00:29:06.000
<v Speaker 1>a single person went, oh, that dude's probably mixed right now.

552
00:29:06.079 --> 00:29:08.240
<v Speaker 4>But I think she brings up a very valid point,

553
00:29:08.359 --> 00:29:10.279
<v Speaker 4>which is, you know, this is sonny from the view,

554
00:29:10.279 --> 00:29:12.559
<v Speaker 4>and her point is very valid. And that point is,

555
00:29:12.599 --> 00:29:15.319
<v Speaker 4>you know, the Pope was a bad person because he

556
00:29:15.480 --> 00:29:18.000
<v Speaker 4>was white, but then once she learned that he was black,

557
00:29:18.759 --> 00:29:21.599
<v Speaker 4>suddenly the pope is a great person. And some people

558
00:29:21.599 --> 00:29:23.920
<v Speaker 4>would say that it's judging people by their race and

559
00:29:23.960 --> 00:29:25.279
<v Speaker 4>being a horrible racist.

560
00:29:25.400 --> 00:29:29.200
<v Speaker 1>Oh no, because she is Oh no on a donkey

561
00:29:29.480 --> 00:29:30.039
<v Speaker 1>in Peru.

562
00:29:30.240 --> 00:29:32.920
<v Speaker 9>That I mean, I just he's bringing me so much joy.

563
00:29:33.440 --> 00:29:36.720
<v Speaker 4>No, the adacity of this woman to say that, like

564
00:29:36.799 --> 00:29:39.319
<v Speaker 4>I wasn't a fan of the pope, but guys, I

565
00:29:39.440 --> 00:29:41.680
<v Speaker 4>found out he's black, so now he's cool.

566
00:29:41.759 --> 00:29:46.319
<v Speaker 1>But before he wrote a donkey in Peru, right, which

567
00:29:46.400 --> 00:29:48.680
<v Speaker 1>is if you guys, go vacation in Peru is a

568
00:29:48.720 --> 00:29:51.160
<v Speaker 1>thing that you can sign up to do. It's a

569
00:29:51.200 --> 00:29:54.559
<v Speaker 1>thing if you want to go see because there's I

570
00:29:54.559 --> 00:29:55.960
<v Speaker 1>don't know if you know this, there's a lot of

571
00:29:56.000 --> 00:29:58.200
<v Speaker 1>like old stuff to go see in Peru that's kind

572
00:29:58.200 --> 00:29:58.720
<v Speaker 1>of famous.

573
00:29:59.039 --> 00:30:01.039
<v Speaker 4>There's also, like you like a lot of old biblical

574
00:30:01.039 --> 00:30:03.039
<v Speaker 4>stuff though about you know, people on donkeys.

575
00:30:03.880 --> 00:30:07.359
<v Speaker 1>Well, I've never heard something like that. That something Oh wow,

576
00:30:07.880 --> 00:30:11.200
<v Speaker 1>and being you know, is he a little what a coincidence?

577
00:30:11.279 --> 00:30:11.480
<v Speaker 3>Yeah?

578
00:30:11.599 --> 00:30:12.279
<v Speaker 1>Kind of religious?

579
00:30:12.359 --> 00:30:13.000
<v Speaker 2>Right is.

580
00:30:16.160 --> 00:30:19.000
<v Speaker 1>Does she realize that, by the way, that one of

581
00:30:19.000 --> 00:30:25.680
<v Speaker 1>the top contenders for pope is literally the the blackest

582
00:30:25.799 --> 00:30:29.839
<v Speaker 1>cardinal of the College of Cardinals, the guy from Ghana

583
00:30:30.680 --> 00:30:33.480
<v Speaker 1>who and and and I didn't I'd never read anything

584
00:30:33.480 --> 00:30:36.079
<v Speaker 1>where anyone had a problem with him potentially sending to

585
00:30:36.079 --> 00:30:39.799
<v Speaker 1>be No. People love that guy. So it's like like

586
00:30:39.960 --> 00:30:43.839
<v Speaker 1>nobody cared. Nobody cared, And now it's like that's how

587
00:30:43.880 --> 00:30:47.720
<v Speaker 1>you're judging this thing. It's it's it's wild and it's.

588
00:30:48.000 --> 00:30:51.160
<v Speaker 4>Gross and yes, yes, the fact that the crowd there

589
00:30:51.720 --> 00:30:54.519
<v Speaker 4>in front of the taping is this clapping like seals for.

590
00:30:54.519 --> 00:31:00.599
<v Speaker 1>This is gone. Can you imagine like they be booing,

591
00:31:00.599 --> 00:31:02.920
<v Speaker 1>they should be throwing tomatoes or something at her for

592
00:31:03.000 --> 00:31:05.279
<v Speaker 1>being so horribly racist, Like what you just said is

593
00:31:05.359 --> 00:31:09.079
<v Speaker 1>horribly racist. Now wait, what I just said is what

594
00:31:09.480 --> 00:31:12.000
<v Speaker 1>did I say that was racist? Not you? Oh, okay,

595
00:31:12.000 --> 00:31:17.799
<v Speaker 1>I'm sorry. I'm like, I don't know, man. I remember

596
00:31:17.839 --> 00:31:20.680
<v Speaker 1>there was conversation prior where they were talking where I

597
00:31:20.720 --> 00:31:22.759
<v Speaker 1>saw I can't remember if it was Sonny or somebody

598
00:31:22.799 --> 00:31:24.720
<v Speaker 1>they were talking about have there ever been a black pope?

599
00:31:24.720 --> 00:31:27.400
<v Speaker 1>And whoever it was was like, yeah, there's been three

600
00:31:27.440 --> 00:31:33.599
<v Speaker 1>black popes and I'm like, no, it's not. It's not. Therefore,

601
00:31:33.759 --> 00:31:36.640
<v Speaker 1>there were people from North Africa. But North Africa at

602
00:31:36.680 --> 00:31:39.119
<v Speaker 1>the time of the that we're talking about these popes

603
00:31:39.240 --> 00:31:44.799
<v Speaker 1>was basically colonized and settled by the European countries. They

604
00:31:44.880 --> 00:31:47.920
<v Speaker 1>just happened to be from there. And so it's like,

605
00:31:48.160 --> 00:31:50.079
<v Speaker 1>is can this be the thing where we don't have

606
00:31:50.200 --> 00:31:52.200
<v Speaker 1>to do this? But apparently it can't be the thing

607
00:31:52.200 --> 00:31:54.880
<v Speaker 1>where we don't have to do this because we're doing

608
00:31:54.880 --> 00:32:01.359
<v Speaker 1>it every single time. Boston, Paul though he's here and uh,

609
00:32:01.440 --> 00:32:04.599
<v Speaker 1>he's really into tolls. What's up, Boston, Paul May.

610
00:32:04.799 --> 00:32:07.960
<v Speaker 7>We talked about this years ago, how bad this was

611
00:32:08.240 --> 00:32:11.160
<v Speaker 7>a bad idea. This is because once they told one

612
00:32:11.240 --> 00:32:14.960
<v Speaker 7>road they want to toll everything, bridges, and how much

613
00:32:15.000 --> 00:32:17.079
<v Speaker 7>you will start to cost you, Like.

614
00:32:17.279 --> 00:32:20.279
<v Speaker 1>We talked about, they go right.

615
00:32:20.480 --> 00:32:23.279
<v Speaker 7>See the mass Turnpike was supposed to go away in

616
00:32:23.319 --> 00:32:26.759
<v Speaker 7>the early eighties. Not did it not only not go away,

617
00:32:26.960 --> 00:32:29.400
<v Speaker 7>but the tolls are probably about triple now from what

618
00:32:29.440 --> 00:32:29.880
<v Speaker 7>they were.

619
00:32:29.960 --> 00:32:32.799
<v Speaker 6>So yeah, a bad idea.

620
00:32:32.960 --> 00:32:33.880
<v Speaker 2>And they started that.

621
00:32:35.000 --> 00:32:37.359
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, what's the what's I think they should toll the

622
00:32:37.400 --> 00:32:39.759
<v Speaker 1>road in front of your house. That would be good. Huh.

623
00:32:40.279 --> 00:32:42.640
<v Speaker 7>And I agree with that, But I'm the toll collector.

624
00:32:42.839 --> 00:32:45.720
<v Speaker 1>Cash on No, No, you're the cash, You're the you're

625
00:32:45.799 --> 00:32:49.200
<v Speaker 1>the the ox getting gord there. So I told you

626
00:32:49.200 --> 00:32:51.359
<v Speaker 1>we got a two for coming up today. And actually

627
00:32:51.359 --> 00:32:54.720
<v Speaker 1>they're going to kind of be back to back. We'll

628
00:32:54.839 --> 00:32:59.359
<v Speaker 1>start here in state politics and with surtch mission of

629
00:32:59.400 --> 00:33:02.440
<v Speaker 1>Mike Cosey and then excuse me, a little hiccup thing there,

630
00:33:02.799 --> 00:33:06.160
<v Speaker 1>and we'll chat with Mike here right now, welcome him in,

631
00:33:06.200 --> 00:33:09.880
<v Speaker 1>and then Greg Murphy Congressman joins us at seven thirty five, Commissioner,

632
00:33:09.960 --> 00:33:10.839
<v Speaker 1>how you doing this morning?

633
00:33:11.960 --> 00:33:14.759
<v Speaker 2>Good morning, Katie. I'm great. How are you?

634
00:33:14.759 --> 00:33:17.440
<v Speaker 1>You are way too energetic for seven oh seven am,

635
00:33:17.519 --> 00:33:19.759
<v Speaker 1>But that's okay. So you're gonna hit the ground running

636
00:33:19.799 --> 00:33:22.640
<v Speaker 1>over there. I'm not gonna I'm not gonna lie to you, Mike.

637
00:33:22.799 --> 00:33:24.519
<v Speaker 1>And I think I think you and I have met

638
00:33:24.519 --> 00:33:26.279
<v Speaker 1>a couple of times in person. I can't remember if

639
00:33:26.279 --> 00:33:28.160
<v Speaker 1>I said it, and I don't mean it in an

640
00:33:28.160 --> 00:33:31.240
<v Speaker 1>insulting way. I have no idea what you guys do

641
00:33:31.359 --> 00:33:35.200
<v Speaker 1>over there at the as Commissioner of insurance half the time.

642
00:33:35.480 --> 00:33:38.359
<v Speaker 1>And I bet if you explained it to me, I

643
00:33:38.519 --> 00:33:41.960
<v Speaker 1>to some people, we kind of get you start your

644
00:33:42.000 --> 00:33:45.119
<v Speaker 1>mind starts wandering because you get into minutia numbers. But

645
00:33:45.160 --> 00:33:47.680
<v Speaker 1>you always had a passion for it. So I when

646
00:33:47.720 --> 00:33:50.119
<v Speaker 1>I saw this, and I saw that there is some

647
00:33:52.039 --> 00:33:58.039
<v Speaker 1>disagreement with some of the changes that the legislature may

648
00:33:58.079 --> 00:33:59.920
<v Speaker 1>make here in North Carolina, and we kind of have

649
00:34:00.079 --> 00:34:04.200
<v Speaker 1>this doge mindset, you would raise some concerns and I thought,

650
00:34:04.279 --> 00:34:06.839
<v Speaker 1>rather than me trying to explain it, we'll let you

651
00:34:06.880 --> 00:34:11.679
<v Speaker 1>try to explain it. So what's going on? What is

652
00:34:11.719 --> 00:34:14.960
<v Speaker 1>it legislatively that you have concern and why is it

653
00:34:15.039 --> 00:34:20.159
<v Speaker 1>financially justifiable at a time when people are looking at

654
00:34:20.159 --> 00:34:23.960
<v Speaker 1>what Doze is uncovering and wondering maybe we should trim

655
00:34:24.000 --> 00:34:27.079
<v Speaker 1>the fat here in North Carolina. So walk me through

656
00:34:27.360 --> 00:34:28.440
<v Speaker 1>what is going on here?

657
00:34:29.159 --> 00:34:32.320
<v Speaker 2>Well, thank you, Casey, and you're not alone. There's majority

658
00:34:32.320 --> 00:34:36.679
<v Speaker 2>of people in North Carolina do not realize all the

659
00:34:36.760 --> 00:34:40.239
<v Speaker 2>things that are regulated by the Department of Insurance. But

660
00:34:41.039 --> 00:34:44.719
<v Speaker 2>nobody's a bigger fan of cutting waste, fraud and abuse

661
00:34:45.239 --> 00:34:49.599
<v Speaker 2>than I am. But what concerned me was when the

662
00:34:49.599 --> 00:34:54.239
<v Speaker 2>Senate budget is Senate Bill two five seven was there,

663
00:34:54.400 --> 00:34:57.559
<v Speaker 2>and again it's just a proposed budget, but it's still

664
00:34:57.679 --> 00:35:03.719
<v Speaker 2>concern that they were proposing to cut, not add any

665
00:35:03.760 --> 00:35:08.800
<v Speaker 2>positions which we serve a growing population with the third

666
00:35:08.920 --> 00:35:13.320
<v Speaker 2>fastest state in the nation, we're one of the fastest

667
00:35:13.679 --> 00:35:19.159
<v Speaker 2>states for retirees moving here all across North Carolina. And

668
00:35:20.280 --> 00:35:22.960
<v Speaker 2>one of the best programs we have was started back

669
00:35:23.000 --> 00:35:27.000
<v Speaker 2>in nineteen eighty six under Insurance Commissioner Jim wrong As

670
00:35:27.079 --> 00:35:31.800
<v Speaker 2>the Seniors Health Insurance Information Program is commonly referred to

671
00:35:32.320 --> 00:35:35.599
<v Speaker 2>as the SHIP program, and we cover the whole state.

672
00:35:35.880 --> 00:35:39.840
<v Speaker 2>We have over eight hundred volunteers in every one of

673
00:35:39.880 --> 00:35:44.000
<v Speaker 2>the one hundred counties. We have somebody at senior centers

674
00:35:44.039 --> 00:35:48.039
<v Speaker 2>helping people that need help with Medicare. And they're not

675
00:35:48.159 --> 00:35:52.239
<v Speaker 2>all seniors. We have over a quarter million people that

676
00:35:52.320 --> 00:35:54.920
<v Speaker 2>are disabled. There is about two hundred and eighty six

677
00:35:55.639 --> 00:36:00.519
<v Speaker 2>thousand folks that are younger people that are dis that

678
00:36:00.639 --> 00:36:04.519
<v Speaker 2>depend on Medicare. And say, what the SHIP program does.

679
00:36:05.039 --> 00:36:11.480
<v Speaker 2>It provides so undiased, inaccurate, one on one counseling at

680
00:36:11.559 --> 00:36:14.840
<v Speaker 2>no charge, and we help.

681
00:36:14.760 --> 00:36:17.519
<v Speaker 1>People you mean by counseling, because I want to lay

682
00:36:17.519 --> 00:36:21.039
<v Speaker 1>this very clearly out because too often with insurance, especially

683
00:36:21.119 --> 00:36:24.360
<v Speaker 1>like what's the term for our pharmaceutical insurance? I know

684
00:36:24.440 --> 00:36:26.719
<v Speaker 1>this really is your thing, but like, what do they

685
00:36:26.760 --> 00:36:29.760
<v Speaker 1>call them? The managers that are now a lot of

686
00:36:29.760 --> 00:36:32.199
<v Speaker 1>people are thinking what you're describing as some sort of

687
00:36:32.239 --> 00:36:35.239
<v Speaker 1>middlemen in the process. And since you're talking about government

688
00:36:35.280 --> 00:36:38.400
<v Speaker 1>funded insurance it I've seen people react and call it

689
00:36:38.440 --> 00:36:42.960
<v Speaker 1>double dipping. So what are they doing? How do you

690
00:36:43.000 --> 00:36:47.119
<v Speaker 1>know that they're unbiased and financially why is it not

691
00:36:47.320 --> 00:36:50.079
<v Speaker 1>double dipping and impactful for people?

692
00:36:50.639 --> 00:36:53.280
<v Speaker 2>Well, what we're trying to do is help people that

693
00:36:53.400 --> 00:36:56.639
<v Speaker 2>have an issue and you know, Medicare is regulated by

694
00:36:56.639 --> 00:37:00.000
<v Speaker 2>the several government, by the Centers for Medicare and Medicare.

695
00:37:00.880 --> 00:37:03.360
<v Speaker 2>And I'll give you one example. We had a lady

696
00:37:03.400 --> 00:37:06.960
<v Speaker 2>that was charged some sort of fees. She didn't know

697
00:37:07.000 --> 00:37:09.960
<v Speaker 2>what they were for, but it was well over one

698
00:37:10.000 --> 00:37:13.679
<v Speaker 2>thousand dollars in fees that she couldn't get any help

699
00:37:13.719 --> 00:37:17.880
<v Speaker 2>from the federal government. That she was stuck in the middle,

700
00:37:17.920 --> 00:37:21.800
<v Speaker 2>and for four years she fought this battle. She contacted

701
00:37:21.840 --> 00:37:25.400
<v Speaker 2>the ship program and one of our counselors got in

702
00:37:25.440 --> 00:37:30.320
<v Speaker 2>touch with Centers for Medicare and Medicaid and got her

703
00:37:30.360 --> 00:37:35.159
<v Speaker 2>money back in short order. And in another case, we

704
00:37:35.239 --> 00:37:39.920
<v Speaker 2>had a senior that had about ten different prescriptions and

705
00:37:40.639 --> 00:37:46.639
<v Speaker 2>the prescriptions were paid for by insurance all but two,

706
00:37:47.360 --> 00:37:51.719
<v Speaker 2>and the two prescriptions that weren't paid for were very costly.

707
00:37:51.800 --> 00:37:55.320
<v Speaker 2>One was over two thousand dollars, the other was over

708
00:37:55.440 --> 00:37:59.639
<v Speaker 2>four thousand. And by the way, I'm glad President Trump

709
00:38:00.039 --> 00:38:03.119
<v Speaker 2>did what he did yesterday that rain sort of level

710
00:38:03.159 --> 00:38:07.159
<v Speaker 2>the play and feel on those high priced drugs. But anyway,

711
00:38:07.280 --> 00:38:11.039
<v Speaker 2>we were able to save this lady over seven thousand

712
00:38:11.079 --> 00:38:16.519
<v Speaker 2>dollars and get those covered. So every year in open

713
00:38:16.679 --> 00:38:21.320
<v Speaker 2>enrollment from October to December. We have so many people,

714
00:38:22.159 --> 00:38:26.840
<v Speaker 2>like you said, nobody understands Medicare. There's over one hundred

715
00:38:26.920 --> 00:38:31.239
<v Speaker 2>and sixty three different Medicare advantage plans just here in

716
00:38:31.360 --> 00:38:38.800
<v Speaker 2>North Carolina, and there's eighteen prescription drug programs, and there's

717
00:38:38.840 --> 00:38:43.719
<v Speaker 2>over forty five companies license to sell Medicare supplement policy.

718
00:38:43.880 --> 00:38:47.079
<v Speaker 2>So there's no way that any person's going to understand

719
00:38:47.199 --> 00:38:50.599
<v Speaker 2>all the details. And that's where we come in. We're

720
00:38:50.639 --> 00:38:56.239
<v Speaker 2>giving information at no charge. And usually if somebody's given information,

721
00:38:56.360 --> 00:38:59.639
<v Speaker 2>they're working for an insurance company trying to sell you

722
00:38:59.679 --> 00:39:01.920
<v Speaker 2>a take for a policy, so they're going to push

723
00:39:01.960 --> 00:39:03.599
<v Speaker 2>you toward that policy.

724
00:39:03.880 --> 00:39:06.599
<v Speaker 1>Well, they had no charge. This is where I want

725
00:39:06.599 --> 00:39:08.639
<v Speaker 1>to get because this is what people's objection will be

726
00:39:08.639 --> 00:39:11.199
<v Speaker 1>because you painted a scenario, Mic, and I agree with

727
00:39:11.239 --> 00:39:14.000
<v Speaker 1>you it is. It is complex, But wouldn't the ultimate

728
00:39:14.079 --> 00:39:17.320
<v Speaker 1>goal be that's that at the federal level they clean

729
00:39:17.360 --> 00:39:20.039
<v Speaker 1>it up so it's not this dumpster fire every time

730
00:39:20.079 --> 00:39:23.119
<v Speaker 1>you interact with it. And when you say no cost,

731
00:39:23.239 --> 00:39:25.519
<v Speaker 1>there is inherently a cost. So how does this get

732
00:39:25.559 --> 00:39:28.800
<v Speaker 1>funded in the state, because clearly the Senate's talking about

733
00:39:28.840 --> 00:39:30.480
<v Speaker 1>removing it.

734
00:39:30.480 --> 00:39:36.599
<v Speaker 2>It's funded through through the federal government funds a little

735
00:39:36.599 --> 00:39:40.239
<v Speaker 2>over a million dollars to North Carolina to cover the

736
00:39:40.280 --> 00:39:44.760
<v Speaker 2>ship program. Now that's that's not enough to cover the program.

737
00:39:44.840 --> 00:39:48.199
<v Speaker 2>So the Department of Insurance, for those that don't know,

738
00:39:48.400 --> 00:39:53.079
<v Speaker 2>is a self funded agency. We're a money generating machine

739
00:39:53.119 --> 00:39:56.039
<v Speaker 2>for the stake. We bring in one hundred We bring

740
00:39:56.079 --> 00:39:59.800
<v Speaker 2>in close to a billion dollars over nine hundred million

741
00:39:59.800 --> 00:40:02.840
<v Speaker 2>dollar a year that we turn over to the general fund.

742
00:40:03.280 --> 00:40:10.480
<v Speaker 2>So any money that's appropriated by the legislature for our budget, say,

743
00:40:10.840 --> 00:40:13.400
<v Speaker 2>is we.

744
00:40:12.800 --> 00:40:14.920
<v Speaker 1>We reimer general fund instance.

745
00:40:15.519 --> 00:40:16.039
<v Speaker 2>That's right.

746
00:40:16.360 --> 00:40:17.920
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, that's what I wanted to get out there because

747
00:40:17.960 --> 00:40:20.079
<v Speaker 1>I didn't realize that. And I happened to read some

748
00:40:20.119 --> 00:40:23.480
<v Speaker 1>stuff because I had, I had somebody in your office

749
00:40:23.559 --> 00:40:26.280
<v Speaker 1>and send this over so I more firmly understood it.

750
00:40:27.440 --> 00:40:31.000
<v Speaker 1>And by the way, if this people may not not

751
00:40:31.159 --> 00:40:34.440
<v Speaker 1>know this, how many how many people work at the

752
00:40:34.440 --> 00:40:38.480
<v Speaker 1>Department of Insurance, not talking volunteers, not talking specialty programmed people.

753
00:40:38.480 --> 00:40:40.880
<v Speaker 1>How many core employees do you have over there that

754
00:40:40.679 --> 00:40:43.320
<v Speaker 1>is that are able to then generate the billion in

755
00:40:43.360 --> 00:40:44.000
<v Speaker 1>the revenue.

756
00:40:45.559 --> 00:40:51.079
<v Speaker 2>Well, specifically for the Department of Insurance, we have over

757
00:40:51.920 --> 00:40:55.159
<v Speaker 2>four hundred and thirty five and then we also have

758
00:40:55.320 --> 00:40:59.599
<v Speaker 2>the Industrial Commission that was moved under the Department of

759
00:40:59.599 --> 00:41:03.599
<v Speaker 2>Insurance when I first took office in twenty seventeen, and

760
00:41:03.639 --> 00:41:08.079
<v Speaker 2>it has one hundred and forty five employees. But the

761
00:41:08.159 --> 00:41:13.119
<v Speaker 2>Industrial Commission, they're appointed by the governor. We do all

762
00:41:13.159 --> 00:41:15.280
<v Speaker 2>of their support work and we pay a lot of

763
00:41:15.320 --> 00:41:20.639
<v Speaker 2>their support, but that's something that the legislature requested that

764
00:41:20.679 --> 00:41:27.079
<v Speaker 2>we have to do. And then for seven years I

765
00:41:27.199 --> 00:41:31.519
<v Speaker 2>was State Fire Marshal over the Office of State Fire Marshal.

766
00:41:31.960 --> 00:41:36.199
<v Speaker 2>That was changed in twenty twenty four. So we have

767
00:41:36.239 --> 00:41:39.800
<v Speaker 2>one hundred and thirty five employees under the Office of

768
00:41:39.880 --> 00:41:43.559
<v Speaker 2>State Fire Marshal that we do all of their support

769
00:41:43.639 --> 00:41:48.000
<v Speaker 2>work and pay the bills and write the grant checks,

770
00:41:48.599 --> 00:41:52.360
<v Speaker 2>but I don't have any oversight over what they spend

771
00:41:52.519 --> 00:41:55.519
<v Speaker 2>and that type thing. So there's a number of things

772
00:41:55.559 --> 00:41:59.000
<v Speaker 2>that are concerning, but all totally. If you take all

773
00:41:59.039 --> 00:42:03.280
<v Speaker 2>of those things that we oversee together, it's over six

774
00:42:03.360 --> 00:42:11.320
<v Speaker 2>hundred employees and that tails into comparison to the number

775
00:42:11.320 --> 00:42:16.119
<v Speaker 2>of licensed agents, insurance agents and brokers across the state,

776
00:42:16.679 --> 00:42:20.320
<v Speaker 2>probably half a million licenses from out of state volks

777
00:42:20.360 --> 00:42:24.440
<v Speaker 2>and in state volts. And we oversee bail bond regulation

778
00:42:24.639 --> 00:42:29.480
<v Speaker 2>that nobody really realizes that over two thousand bail bondsmen

779
00:42:29.920 --> 00:42:34.119
<v Speaker 2>in North Carolina. And then one of the biggest things

780
00:42:34.159 --> 00:42:37.719
<v Speaker 2>we do is help consumers. I mean, I'm sure none

781
00:42:37.760 --> 00:42:41.840
<v Speaker 2>of your listeners ever have insurance flames problems, but we

782
00:42:41.960 --> 00:42:44.960
<v Speaker 2>get calls every day from people that are having trouble

783
00:42:45.440 --> 00:42:49.599
<v Speaker 2>with insurance companies paying acclaim in a timely manner or

784
00:42:49.599 --> 00:42:52.559
<v Speaker 2>paying the right amount. So you can go to a

785
00:42:52.639 --> 00:42:56.400
<v Speaker 2>website INCDI dot gov. There's a little button you can

786
00:42:56.400 --> 00:42:59.079
<v Speaker 2>file your own complaint or call us and we'll help

787
00:42:59.119 --> 00:43:03.039
<v Speaker 2>you and our folks get results, and they're on the

788
00:43:03.119 --> 00:43:07.480
<v Speaker 2>phones Monday through Friday eight to five just to help consumers,

789
00:43:08.320 --> 00:43:13.079
<v Speaker 2>and we generally can get you a higher settlement than

790
00:43:13.119 --> 00:43:16.079
<v Speaker 2>you can on your own, and that's what people like

791
00:43:16.239 --> 00:43:17.199
<v Speaker 2>so much about it.

792
00:43:18.039 --> 00:43:21.400
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, but on this yeah, I'm sorry. Let's go ahead finish,

793
00:43:21.440 --> 00:43:23.000
<v Speaker 1>and then I have one last question for you.

794
00:43:23.079 --> 00:43:26.199
<v Speaker 2>So I'm just going to say, on this proposed Senate

795
00:43:26.239 --> 00:43:28.960
<v Speaker 2>budget that came out, they want to cut the whole program.

796
00:43:28.960 --> 00:43:33.760
<v Speaker 2>We have twenty six total employees. Eleven of those employees

797
00:43:33.800 --> 00:43:37.239
<v Speaker 2>are funded by us at the state level, and for

798
00:43:37.280 --> 00:43:42.079
<v Speaker 2>whatever reason, the Senate thinks we need to eliminate those

799
00:43:42.159 --> 00:43:46.360
<v Speaker 2>eleven positions, and they're also trying to eliminate eight other

800
00:43:47.039 --> 00:43:50.280
<v Speaker 2>key full time positions at the Department of Assurance that

801
00:43:50.360 --> 00:43:57.000
<v Speaker 2>are actuary financial folks. That would really harm the people

802
00:43:57.079 --> 00:43:59.920
<v Speaker 2>of North Carolina and it would limit our public service.

803
00:44:00.000 --> 00:44:03.639
<v Speaker 2>So far of the House has not taken that up.

804
00:44:03.920 --> 00:44:07.679
<v Speaker 2>We were hopeful that, you know, we can prevent these cuts,

805
00:44:08.239 --> 00:44:11.760
<v Speaker 2>but I just I just want to say that cuts

806
00:44:11.760 --> 00:44:14.440
<v Speaker 2>are not always a good thing. Sometimes they are, but

807
00:44:14.519 --> 00:44:17.960
<v Speaker 2>in this case, it would be harmful to the people

808
00:44:18.039 --> 00:44:19.320
<v Speaker 2>of Don't Carolina by V.

809
00:44:20.239 --> 00:44:23.280
<v Speaker 1>Well, you know, you sit there and you look at

810
00:44:23.280 --> 00:44:25.400
<v Speaker 1>what's going on with other like the d m V

811
00:44:25.559 --> 00:44:27.960
<v Speaker 1>is a disaster. I bet you're so happy you're not

812
00:44:28.000 --> 00:44:31.679
<v Speaker 1>in charge of that, and and so I just want

813
00:44:31.719 --> 00:44:33.639
<v Speaker 1>to make sure as we're going through I look, I

814
00:44:33.679 --> 00:44:35.519
<v Speaker 1>think that there's fat to trim and I think there's

815
00:44:35.519 --> 00:44:37.920
<v Speaker 1>probably a lot of people in management positions who I

816
00:44:37.920 --> 00:44:39.719
<v Speaker 1>don't know what the hell they do, and neither do they.

817
00:44:40.320 --> 00:44:43.400
<v Speaker 1>That being said, when you get into things that derive revenue,

818
00:44:44.800 --> 00:44:47.360
<v Speaker 1>then you know, maybe that should be a bigger discussion.

819
00:44:47.360 --> 00:44:49.039
<v Speaker 1>I would tend to agree with you there, but I

820
00:44:49.679 --> 00:44:52.079
<v Speaker 1>don't know. So what what we're talking about. Just to

821
00:44:52.119 --> 00:44:55.239
<v Speaker 1>be clear with this ship program is essentially the state

822
00:44:55.360 --> 00:44:59.320
<v Speaker 1>is at least partially having to fund customer support for

823
00:44:59.400 --> 00:45:02.000
<v Speaker 1>the for federal program, which is insane to me and

824
00:45:02.119 --> 00:45:04.639
<v Speaker 1>probably a little insane to you, But that's the reality

825
00:45:04.679 --> 00:45:06.760
<v Speaker 1>that we live in. Is that that would be a

826
00:45:06.800 --> 00:45:08.719
<v Speaker 1>correct way to sum this up, right.

827
00:45:08.599 --> 00:45:12.760
<v Speaker 2>Well, it's it's actually paid for by what's called the

828
00:45:12.880 --> 00:45:19.880
<v Speaker 2>insurance regulatory fun and the insurance regulatory fun is made

829
00:45:19.960 --> 00:45:25.480
<v Speaker 2>up every time you pay a premium dollar, two and

830
00:45:25.519 --> 00:45:28.960
<v Speaker 2>a half percent of that premium dollar goes to the

831
00:45:29.039 --> 00:45:31.960
<v Speaker 2>state in the form of what's called a state premium tax.

832
00:45:32.239 --> 00:45:35.079
<v Speaker 2>A lot of people don't realize that, but that's what that's.

833
00:45:35.840 --> 00:45:39.360
<v Speaker 1>That's still a tax, Mike so hard, that's still a tax.

834
00:45:39.440 --> 00:45:41.719
<v Speaker 1>That's still just when one of the Death by a

835
00:45:41.760 --> 00:45:44.199
<v Speaker 1>thousand cuts that people are getting out of government. Which

836
00:45:44.239 --> 00:45:45.960
<v Speaker 1>is why I wanted you to come on and explain this,

837
00:45:46.039 --> 00:45:49.480
<v Speaker 1>because it's really easy for everyone to be upset if

838
00:45:49.480 --> 00:45:52.360
<v Speaker 1>their ox is getting gord. I just I think people

839
00:45:52.400 --> 00:45:56.320
<v Speaker 1>should be able to make a coherent argument as to

840
00:45:56.639 --> 00:46:00.880
<v Speaker 1>why this particular ox shouldn't be gored, and I was

841
00:46:01.039 --> 00:46:02.880
<v Speaker 1>when I read this, I went, well that does kind

842
00:46:02.880 --> 00:46:05.880
<v Speaker 1>of make sense because it's a revenue driver and for

843
00:46:05.960 --> 00:46:10.679
<v Speaker 1>the purpose that it serves. So but anyway, so not

844
00:46:10.800 --> 00:46:13.480
<v Speaker 1>in the House, is in the Senate. If the if

845
00:46:13.760 --> 00:46:16.000
<v Speaker 1>last question, if they came to you and and they

846
00:46:16.039 --> 00:46:18.599
<v Speaker 1>came to everyone else in your position and said, hey, look,

847
00:46:18.679 --> 00:46:20.239
<v Speaker 1>we're not going to we're not going to go through

848
00:46:20.280 --> 00:46:22.280
<v Speaker 1>line by line and look at this, but we're going

849
00:46:22.320 --> 00:46:24.760
<v Speaker 1>to need everybody to make five percent and cuts. Is

850
00:46:24.800 --> 00:46:27.519
<v Speaker 1>that something your department could do. I don't know what

851
00:46:27.519 --> 00:46:29.880
<v Speaker 1>their stated goal is at the state level, but let's

852
00:46:29.880 --> 00:46:34.800
<v Speaker 1>say it's five percent, Well it for that methodology versus.

853
00:46:34.440 --> 00:46:38.800
<v Speaker 2>This and the case of the Department of Insurance, it

854
00:46:38.840 --> 00:46:45.960
<v Speaker 2>would be very it be on the verge of devastating

855
00:46:46.079 --> 00:46:52.000
<v Speaker 2>because we're we're so underfunded right now. If yeah, I'm

856
00:46:52.000 --> 00:46:56.599
<v Speaker 2>not there's there's places that that could happen. But there's

857
00:46:56.679 --> 00:47:02.400
<v Speaker 2>certain agencies that all underfunded and need better funding in

858
00:47:02.519 --> 00:47:04.519
<v Speaker 2>order to help the people. If the people want to

859
00:47:04.519 --> 00:47:07.400
<v Speaker 2>have if you want to provide those services. If you

860
00:47:07.440 --> 00:47:10.400
<v Speaker 2>don't want to provide those services, then you don't even.

861
00:47:10.320 --> 00:47:13.360
<v Speaker 1>Have to have it right and the services as we

862
00:47:13.480 --> 00:47:17.519
<v Speaker 1>just described here is essentially working through insurance claims and

863
00:47:17.639 --> 00:47:20.840
<v Speaker 1>working through Medicare Medicaid. Last question, Mike, if I can

864
00:47:20.880 --> 00:47:23.199
<v Speaker 1>just make it really uncomfortable for you the next Council

865
00:47:23.280 --> 00:47:26.719
<v Speaker 1>of state who is living high on the hog in

866
00:47:26.719 --> 00:47:33.480
<v Speaker 1>North Carolina right now. You've been at this a very

867
00:47:33.480 --> 00:47:36.039
<v Speaker 1>long time. I know, you know, you probably have some

868
00:47:36.119 --> 00:47:39.639
<v Speaker 1>opinions you can choose to. Where where should they be

869
00:47:39.639 --> 00:47:41.440
<v Speaker 1>looking for cuts if that's what they want to do

870
00:47:41.480 --> 00:47:43.559
<v Speaker 1>in North Carolina? Where are we wasting money?

871
00:47:46.159 --> 00:47:50.519
<v Speaker 2>Well, I mean, I'm sure there's We've seen it a lot.

872
00:47:51.000 --> 00:47:53.840
<v Speaker 2>I mean we've seen it over the years from different

873
00:47:53.880 --> 00:48:00.199
<v Speaker 2>audits that have taken place where we've had employees in

874
00:48:00.320 --> 00:48:04.119
<v Speaker 2>certain not only in state government, several government, but in

875
00:48:04.159 --> 00:48:08.519
<v Speaker 2>the private sector too, where you have employees that have

876
00:48:08.599 --> 00:48:11.639
<v Speaker 2>the dazzled money. And one of the big things we

877
00:48:11.679 --> 00:48:14.880
<v Speaker 2>do at this Apartment of Insurance is we really go

878
00:48:14.960 --> 00:48:19.599
<v Speaker 2>after insurance fraud. That's every dollar you pay for insurance,

879
00:48:19.639 --> 00:48:22.559
<v Speaker 2>about twenty cents is going just to cover the fraud.

880
00:48:22.840 --> 00:48:27.280
<v Speaker 2>So there's fraud in all walks of life, whether it's

881
00:48:27.719 --> 00:48:32.280
<v Speaker 2>public service or private industry. I'm on my way now

882
00:48:32.360 --> 00:48:36.519
<v Speaker 2>to Ohio to a fraud conference to speak about fraud,

883
00:48:36.599 --> 00:48:37.480
<v Speaker 2>waste and abuse.

884
00:48:37.840 --> 00:48:39.760
<v Speaker 1>Well, Mike and I'm sure I got to cut you

885
00:48:39.760 --> 00:48:41.760
<v Speaker 1>out here. I got thirty seconds. I will warn you

886
00:48:41.800 --> 00:48:44.800
<v Speaker 1>to be careful when you're in Ohio because there are

887
00:48:44.840 --> 00:48:48.119
<v Speaker 1>people driving around with monkeys with meth pipes up there.

888
00:48:48.280 --> 00:48:51.039

<v Speaker 3>Hang on.

898
00:49:08.320 --> 00:49:12.480
<v Speaker 1>In Washington, they're talking about the big beautiful, one big

899
00:49:12.599 --> 00:49:16.880
<v Speaker 1>beautiful bill, which is one hundred percent Trump stuff there,

900
00:49:16.960 --> 00:49:18.800
<v Speaker 1>and one of those who will get to vote on

901
00:49:18.920 --> 00:49:21.840
<v Speaker 1>big beautiful said bill and hopefully some other stuff is

902
00:49:21.920 --> 00:49:25.480
<v Speaker 1>Congressman Greg Burfew joins us. Now, good morning, sir. How

903
00:49:25.519 --> 00:49:27.840
<v Speaker 1>are you all well, Cathie?

904
00:49:27.880 --> 00:49:29.360
<v Speaker 3>I hope you are, Yes.

905
00:49:29.239 --> 00:49:34.119
<v Speaker 1>Sir, are you pumped about one big beautiful bill.

906
00:49:35.280 --> 00:49:39.079
<v Speaker 6>As pumped as that condet? Well, I'm on ways and

907
00:49:39.159 --> 00:49:42.400
<v Speaker 6>means and so we cover tax, trade and healthcare, and

908
00:49:42.440 --> 00:49:45.320
<v Speaker 6>today we're going to do what they call the markup

909
00:49:46.000 --> 00:49:49.760
<v Speaker 6>on our tax provisions for the big beautiful bill, and

910
00:49:49.800 --> 00:49:53.000
<v Speaker 6>there's over two hundred, I think, two hundred and twenty provisions.

911
00:49:53.280 --> 00:49:55.960
<v Speaker 6>And we'll start about two o'clock this afternoon and probably

912
00:49:56.000 --> 00:49:58.519
<v Speaker 6>go straight through the night till about two o'clock tomorrow.

913
00:49:58.880 --> 00:50:03.880
<v Speaker 6>Tomorrow afternoon, it'll be it'll be a big time, beautiful time.

914
00:50:04.400 --> 00:50:07.199
<v Speaker 1>What kind of gamesmanship happens in that? If I could

915
00:50:07.239 --> 00:50:09.960
<v Speaker 1>just get a little well insight, because oh yeah, yeah,

916
00:50:10.400 --> 00:50:14.480
<v Speaker 1>I'm always looking for an angle up at your work there.

917
00:50:14.360 --> 00:50:17.760
<v Speaker 6>So yeah, you know. And the craziest thing I was

918
00:50:17.760 --> 00:50:19.440
<v Speaker 6>talking with the buddy of mine this morning about this

919
00:50:19.599 --> 00:50:21.599
<v Speaker 6>that I think the worst thing that ever happened to

920
00:50:21.639 --> 00:50:24.800
<v Speaker 6>politics is all the thousands and thousands of cameras everywhere.

921
00:50:24.800 --> 00:50:27.159
<v Speaker 6>So you've got some people who are here to just

922
00:50:27.239 --> 00:50:29.440
<v Speaker 6>play to the cameras rather than do the real work.

923
00:50:29.800 --> 00:50:33.639
<v Speaker 6>But today were like each each provision. I told you

924
00:50:33.679 --> 00:50:37.159
<v Speaker 6>there were a couple of hundred provisions each provision. My

925
00:50:37.760 --> 00:50:41.280
<v Speaker 6>colleagues on the other side of the aisle will probably

926
00:50:41.320 --> 00:50:46.079
<v Speaker 6>put in anywhere from ten to fifteen to twenty amendments,

927
00:50:46.800 --> 00:50:50.760
<v Speaker 6>So we have to debate each of these amendments separately

928
00:50:51.159 --> 00:50:54.320
<v Speaker 6>before we ever talked about the main provisions, and usually

929
00:50:54.360 --> 00:50:56.679
<v Speaker 6>the amendments have nothing to do with the bill, and

930
00:50:56.719 --> 00:50:59.360
<v Speaker 6>it's just other's some other nonsense. It's just a delay time.

931
00:50:59.440 --> 00:51:03.079
<v Speaker 6>But you know, I used to be a surgeon, full

932
00:51:03.119 --> 00:51:06.880
<v Speaker 6>time transplant surgeon and urologist. I can say it all

933
00:51:07.000 --> 00:51:08.880
<v Speaker 6>nights and I can just keep on moving, so I

934
00:51:08.960 --> 00:51:10.119
<v Speaker 6>don't doesn't scare me.

935
00:51:10.599 --> 00:51:12.519
<v Speaker 1>Is this the way that you like to do it? Though?

936
00:51:12.679 --> 00:51:14.960
<v Speaker 1>I mean, what is this bill? Four hundred pages before

937
00:51:14.960 --> 00:51:17.400
<v Speaker 1>you before they start adding stuff to it? It's four

938
00:51:17.440 --> 00:51:20.760
<v Speaker 1>hunderd pages. There's a thousand things in this. A lot

939
00:51:20.800 --> 00:51:25.199
<v Speaker 1>of people hate these because two things. One stuff gets

940
00:51:25.239 --> 00:51:27.639
<v Speaker 1>buried in there, and the other thing is there will

941
00:51:27.639 --> 00:51:30.199
<v Speaker 1>be a provision in the bill that's like, let's make

942
00:51:30.239 --> 00:51:32.760
<v Speaker 1>you know, let's do let's do this great thing. And

943
00:51:32.800 --> 00:51:35.119
<v Speaker 1>then another provision in a bill will be like, but

944
00:51:35.159 --> 00:51:37.960
<v Speaker 1>then we have to murder puppies. Somebody will vote for it.

945
00:51:37.960 --> 00:51:40.920
<v Speaker 1>They'll be like, why would my opponent vote to murder puppies?

946
00:51:41.000 --> 00:51:43.320
<v Speaker 1>Like this is, well, this is how you get all

947
00:51:43.400 --> 00:51:45.199
<v Speaker 1>of this stuff, so why is this.

948
00:51:45.239 --> 00:51:48.199
<v Speaker 2>Well, this is a little different. This is a little different.

949
00:51:48.280 --> 00:51:52.199
<v Speaker 6>This is called reconciliation process. And this only occurs when

950
00:51:52.199 --> 00:51:55.119
<v Speaker 6>the same party is in the House, the Senate, and

951
00:51:55.199 --> 00:51:59.760
<v Speaker 6>the White House, and they're all in concert to push

952
00:51:59.760 --> 00:52:02.760
<v Speaker 6>together other a bill that normally would require sixty votes

953
00:52:02.800 --> 00:52:06.480
<v Speaker 6>in the Senate, they're fifty three Republicans now and only

954
00:52:06.519 --> 00:52:08.039
<v Speaker 6>requires a simple majority.

955
00:52:08.519 --> 00:52:11.239
<v Speaker 1>And all of these provisions spending, right, Is that what

956
00:52:11.320 --> 00:52:13.280
<v Speaker 1>triggers it? Or am I confused?

957
00:52:13.519 --> 00:52:16.320
<v Speaker 6>Well, now, it's it's just to try to bring the budget.

958
00:52:16.400 --> 00:52:19.199
<v Speaker 6>You know, we're crashing. We are crashing towards a sovereign

959
00:52:19.239 --> 00:52:23.400
<v Speaker 6>debt crisis. And the whole purpose of this thing is

960
00:52:23.440 --> 00:52:26.639
<v Speaker 6>to try to continue some of the really pro business,

961
00:52:26.639 --> 00:52:29.880
<v Speaker 6>pro growth tax cuts that were done in twenty seventeen,

962
00:52:30.480 --> 00:52:34.679
<v Speaker 6>but also shore up so many of our other other

963
00:52:34.800 --> 00:52:37.079
<v Speaker 6>good programs, get rid of nonsense programs.

964
00:52:37.119 --> 00:52:38.000
<v Speaker 3>We're getting rid of the.

965
00:52:37.920 --> 00:52:41.719
<v Speaker 6>Ev tax credit, which tooth be told was only there

966
00:52:41.760 --> 00:52:46.000
<v Speaker 6>to help rich people by tesils, and you.

967
00:52:46.000 --> 00:52:48.079
<v Speaker 1>Guys, if you guys get rid of the start stop

968
00:52:48.159 --> 00:52:51.239
<v Speaker 1>button too, I will consider your Congress's success. And I

969
00:52:51.280 --> 00:52:52.880
<v Speaker 1>saw that the lead want to.

970
00:52:52.880 --> 00:52:53.400
<v Speaker 2>Move on that.

971
00:52:55.119 --> 00:52:58.159
<v Speaker 6>I love it. So it's a little different process. You know,

972
00:52:58.360 --> 00:53:01.239
<v Speaker 6>when Pelosi was in charge, we got a big bill

973
00:53:01.320 --> 00:53:05.599
<v Speaker 6>at two am, never been debated, so none of it

974
00:53:05.639 --> 00:53:08.039
<v Speaker 6>ever went through committee at all these we're going all

975
00:53:08.119 --> 00:53:12.400
<v Speaker 6>these through things through committee. The Democrats, the opposition party,

976
00:53:12.880 --> 00:53:16.280
<v Speaker 6>is seeing everything. So she would drop a fifteen hundred

977
00:53:16.320 --> 00:53:19.519
<v Speaker 6>page bill at two am and then we would vote

978
00:53:19.559 --> 00:53:22.360
<v Speaker 6>on it at four am. No, no, no, this is

979
00:53:22.440 --> 00:53:26.280
<v Speaker 6>weeks and weeks and weeks of work, if not months,

980
00:53:26.280 --> 00:53:32.360
<v Speaker 6>really of hard work and really being put into the

981
00:53:32.400 --> 00:53:34.960
<v Speaker 6>you know, the tumbler if it will, by both parties.

982
00:53:35.360 --> 00:53:37.800
<v Speaker 6>So there's not any surprises. They're not things that are

983
00:53:37.800 --> 00:53:40.559
<v Speaker 6>going to be in there that people don't know about.

984
00:53:40.639 --> 00:53:43.400
<v Speaker 6>It's very, very straightforward. This is the way government is

985
00:53:43.440 --> 00:53:44.159
<v Speaker 6>supposed to work.

986
00:53:44.639 --> 00:53:48.920
<v Speaker 1>No tax on tips, no tax on overtime they are there,

987
00:53:49.559 --> 00:53:52.119
<v Speaker 1>no tax on auto loan interest. But the one that

988
00:53:52.239 --> 00:53:56.679
<v Speaker 1>might be contentious is the end to taxes on social

989
00:53:56.719 --> 00:54:00.679
<v Speaker 1>security for seniors. You know, obviously got a lot of seniors,

990
00:54:00.679 --> 00:54:02.920
<v Speaker 1>You get a lot of retirees along the coast, which

991
00:54:02.960 --> 00:54:08.119
<v Speaker 1>you represent a whole chunk of Yeah, and also veterans, right,

992
00:54:08.199 --> 00:54:10.800
<v Speaker 1>and a lot of people over the years have questioned

993
00:54:11.280 --> 00:54:17.360
<v Speaker 1>why veterans or seniors pay taxes on you know, pensions

994
00:54:17.440 --> 00:54:20.159
<v Speaker 1>essentially pension or social security depending on what it is.

995
00:54:20.679 --> 00:54:24.639
<v Speaker 1>And you're shock full of both. So you what, here's

996
00:54:24.679 --> 00:54:27.639
<v Speaker 1>your advocacy in this direction. What are you wanting to see?

997
00:54:27.719 --> 00:54:30.079
<v Speaker 6>So I'll let me bring up those four things real quick.

998
00:54:30.119 --> 00:54:33.400
<v Speaker 6>So no tax on tips. I'm not a huge fan

999
00:54:33.480 --> 00:54:36.119
<v Speaker 6>of another president had a big initiative of I don't

1000
00:54:36.119 --> 00:54:38.239
<v Speaker 6>see it as usually pro growth. I think there's going

1001
00:54:38.280 --> 00:54:41.360
<v Speaker 6>to be some real people that are trying to make

1002
00:54:41.760 --> 00:54:45.360
<v Speaker 6>make a good run at having done fraudulently. It's not

1003
00:54:45.519 --> 00:54:47.599
<v Speaker 6>like to me, people who get cash tips now are

1004
00:54:47.639 --> 00:54:49.559
<v Speaker 6>going to say, oh great, I didn't pay tax on

1005
00:54:49.639 --> 00:54:52.519
<v Speaker 6>them before, but I'm going to report them now. So

1006
00:54:52.599 --> 00:54:55.119
<v Speaker 6>I won't get text as far as income text, but

1007
00:54:55.159 --> 00:54:57.199
<v Speaker 6>I'll still get the fight attacks. I'll still get the

1008
00:54:57.239 --> 00:55:00.519
<v Speaker 6>medicare text. I also don't want to you know, your

1009
00:55:00.519 --> 00:55:02.599
<v Speaker 6>electrician to come in and say, all right, well your

1010
00:55:02.599 --> 00:55:05.400
<v Speaker 6>bill is two hundred dollars, but only twenty percent is

1011
00:55:05.400 --> 00:55:07.360
<v Speaker 6>the bill one hundred and eighty dollars is your tip?

1012
00:55:08.639 --> 00:55:10.440
<v Speaker 6>And so there's gonna be ways to work around that.

1013
00:55:10.480 --> 00:55:12.320
<v Speaker 6>There are also gonna be some income limits on this.

1014
00:55:12.840 --> 00:55:16.639
<v Speaker 6>The no tax on overtime. The devil is always in

1015
00:55:16.679 --> 00:55:19.400
<v Speaker 6>the details. Are employer is going to say, hey, I

1016
00:55:19.440 --> 00:55:21.639
<v Speaker 6>really want to recruit people and retain people. The work

1017
00:55:21.639 --> 00:55:25.400
<v Speaker 6>week now is down to thirty two hours, and I'll

1018
00:55:25.400 --> 00:55:25.800
<v Speaker 6>pay you.

1019
00:55:25.800 --> 00:55:28.599
<v Speaker 1>Overtime for ye obomba.

1020
00:55:28.719 --> 00:55:28.880
<v Speaker 3>Yeah.

1021
00:55:31.599 --> 00:55:34.800
<v Speaker 6>Yeah. So we have to be very very very judicious

1022
00:55:34.880 --> 00:55:38.119
<v Speaker 6>in what we're doing. And so going back to the

1023
00:55:38.119 --> 00:55:40.840
<v Speaker 6>no tax on soci Security, you can't do that anything

1024
00:55:40.880 --> 00:55:47.360
<v Speaker 6>with Social Security in reconciliation. But what we can do

1025
00:55:47.599 --> 00:55:50.320
<v Speaker 6>is we're going to lower the tax rate on seniors

1026
00:55:50.320 --> 00:55:53.920
<v Speaker 6>who make under seventy five thousand dollars basically to nothing

1027
00:55:54.599 --> 00:55:57.079
<v Speaker 6>and move it up otherwise. And so it's a help

1028
00:55:57.119 --> 00:56:00.880
<v Speaker 6>for the seniors. You know, social Security not be taxed,

1029
00:56:00.880 --> 00:56:02.920
<v Speaker 6>and then it was tax and now we're trying to

1030
00:56:03.360 --> 00:56:05.360
<v Speaker 6>really cut back and help our seniors out.

1031
00:56:05.800 --> 00:56:08.280
<v Speaker 1>Okay, just a couple of quick things for a congressman

1032
00:56:08.360 --> 00:56:10.519
<v Speaker 1>is going come up against the clock and in the

1033
00:56:10.519 --> 00:56:15.239
<v Speaker 1>medical background, U there is a another radio outlet one

1034
00:56:15.280 --> 00:56:19.199
<v Speaker 1>that you fund, mister congressman. So I'm sure you can

1035
00:56:19.239 --> 00:56:21.119
<v Speaker 1>figure out who it is who I swear to you

1036
00:56:21.199 --> 00:56:24.079
<v Speaker 1>is running a piece this morning. I've heard part of it.

1037
00:56:24.119 --> 00:56:25.519
<v Speaker 1>I haven't had a chance because I've been on the

1038
00:56:25.519 --> 00:56:30.760
<v Speaker 1>air talking about the downside of cheaper prescription medication, and

1039
00:56:31.079 --> 00:56:35.039
<v Speaker 1>I'm just like anything Trump wants obviously it's a national crisis.

1040
00:56:35.400 --> 00:56:37.599
<v Speaker 1>Was that impactful what he did the other day? And

1041
00:56:37.639 --> 00:56:40.320
<v Speaker 1>then my follow up is, if it is, and you

1042
00:56:40.480 --> 00:56:44.039
<v Speaker 1>like some of the things he's unilaterally doing, what are

1043
00:56:44.079 --> 00:56:48.199
<v Speaker 1>you guys doing to enshrine this stuff into quasi permanency

1044
00:56:48.239 --> 00:56:52.280
<v Speaker 1>at least because Coy Yeah, codify it so does.

1045
00:56:52.440 --> 00:56:56.599
<v Speaker 6>To me, because yeah, just because he puts an executive

1046
00:56:56.679 --> 00:56:58.360
<v Speaker 6>order out, that thing runs out as soon as he's

1047
00:56:58.400 --> 00:56:59.320
<v Speaker 6>no longer the executive.

1048
00:56:59.360 --> 00:57:01.000
<v Speaker 2>We have to cutify, we have to put it in law.

1049
00:57:01.360 --> 00:57:03.800
<v Speaker 6>So I think people need to understand why drugs cost

1050
00:57:03.840 --> 00:57:06.639
<v Speaker 6>so much these days. Number One, America leads the world

1051
00:57:06.679 --> 00:57:09.159
<v Speaker 6>in innovation and research, and this is where we do it.

1052
00:57:09.519 --> 00:57:13.559
<v Speaker 6>Number two, the most favored nations, all the other nations

1053
00:57:13.599 --> 00:57:19.519
<v Speaker 6>where we send drugs really really really undercut the ability

1054
00:57:19.559 --> 00:57:22.840
<v Speaker 6>for pharmaceutical companies to actually make money over there. So

1055
00:57:22.920 --> 00:57:25.679
<v Speaker 6>guess what it all happens over here. But if people

1056
00:57:25.719 --> 00:57:30.519
<v Speaker 6>really understood what's going on in healthcare, the pharmacy benefit managers,

1057
00:57:30.559 --> 00:57:34.519
<v Speaker 6>which are these institutions run by health insurance companies who

1058
00:57:34.599 --> 00:57:40.239
<v Speaker 6>double triple dip in basically extorting pharmaceutical companies and then

1059
00:57:40.239 --> 00:57:44.800
<v Speaker 6>extorting pharmacies, especially independent pharmacies. They are one of the

1060
00:57:44.840 --> 00:57:47.840
<v Speaker 6>real drivers of high drug costs. I personally would get

1061
00:57:47.880 --> 00:57:51.280
<v Speaker 6>rid of direct consumer advertising this afternoon. I think we

1062
00:57:51.320 --> 00:57:53.800
<v Speaker 6>would cut ten percent off our bill, not only in

1063
00:57:53.840 --> 00:57:56.480
<v Speaker 6>the cost of but it is to insurance companies, but

1064
00:57:56.519 --> 00:58:00.599
<v Speaker 6>also how it drives utilization. So those three things are

1065
00:58:00.639 --> 00:58:04.840
<v Speaker 6>really the keys to lowering our drug prices.

1066
00:58:05.920 --> 00:58:06.119
<v Speaker 2>You know.

1067
00:58:06.199 --> 00:58:07.880
<v Speaker 6>The last thing I want us to do is all

1068
00:58:07.880 --> 00:58:10.039
<v Speaker 6>of a sudden, have China be the innovator of drugs

1069
00:58:10.039 --> 00:58:12.039
<v Speaker 6>in the world. We saw how well their vaccine work,

1070
00:58:12.599 --> 00:58:14.119
<v Speaker 6>and so there is a balance to do.

1071
00:58:14.199 --> 00:58:16.519
<v Speaker 2>This part of it.

1072
00:58:16.559 --> 00:58:18.519
<v Speaker 6>I'm on board with the other part I'm not on

1073
00:58:18.559 --> 00:58:21.000
<v Speaker 6>board with. I've lived in medicine thirty five years, from

1074
00:58:21.000 --> 00:58:23.800
<v Speaker 6>the bedside to you know, being chief of staff of

1075
00:58:24.199 --> 00:58:27.840
<v Speaker 6>a thousand bed hospital and non hospital system, to the

1076
00:58:27.880 --> 00:58:30.119
<v Speaker 6>other stuff in the state. Senior chare health policy in

1077
00:58:30.159 --> 00:58:32.239
<v Speaker 6>the House in the state, and so I think, I

1078
00:58:32.320 --> 00:58:34.559
<v Speaker 6>kind of live this world and I know this world.

1079
00:58:35.800 --> 00:58:38.400
<v Speaker 6>I want us to use more of scalpels than sledgehammers

1080
00:58:38.519 --> 00:58:42.159
<v Speaker 6>in these really, really really complex complex areas.

1081
00:58:42.320 --> 00:58:45.960
<v Speaker 1>All right, last question, you cool with letting getting that

1082
00:58:46.039 --> 00:58:51.039
<v Speaker 1>plane from Dubai. I mean, I like to see purity concerns,

1083
00:58:51.119 --> 00:58:54.679
<v Speaker 1>But ABC News is twisting it like they're just giving

1084
00:58:54.719 --> 00:58:57.920
<v Speaker 1>it to Trump. That being said, it is it does

1085
00:58:58.000 --> 00:59:00.639
<v Speaker 1>provide the kind, you know, the idea that maybe they

1086
00:59:00.679 --> 00:59:02.320
<v Speaker 1>would have some outsized influence.

1087
00:59:02.360 --> 00:59:05.239
<v Speaker 6>So what do you think, Yeah, I need to see

1088
00:59:05.239 --> 00:59:09.400
<v Speaker 6>the details on that, because the optics are of concern.

1089
00:59:09.760 --> 00:59:14.000
<v Speaker 6>I would absolutely admit that. Is this air Force one?

1090
00:59:14.079 --> 00:59:15.880
<v Speaker 6>Is it going to be passed down to the next president?

1091
00:59:16.119 --> 00:59:18.440
<v Speaker 6>Are we going to basically can you basically tear it

1092
00:59:18.480 --> 00:59:20.440
<v Speaker 6>apart and make sure there aren't any bugs or anything

1093
00:59:20.440 --> 00:59:24.119
<v Speaker 6>on it? Because guess what, you can't trust people on

1094
00:59:24.159 --> 00:59:26.119
<v Speaker 6>the other side of the world all the time. So

1095
00:59:26.920 --> 00:59:28.599
<v Speaker 6>let's see the devil's in the details.

1096
00:59:28.920 --> 00:59:32.119
<v Speaker 1>Okay, all right. His argument is they're giving me a

1097
00:59:32.119 --> 00:59:34.440
<v Speaker 1>free plane. They're giving us a free plane so that

1098
00:59:34.480 --> 00:59:36.599
<v Speaker 1>I have to spend money. And I understand the business

1099
00:59:36.599 --> 00:59:40.199
<v Speaker 1>mindset there, but interesting stuff, all right, Congressman Greg Murphy,

1100

01:00:24.119 --> 01:00:24.760
<v Speaker 10>I know, I know.

1117
01:00:24.880 --> 01:00:27.800
<v Speaker 1>I guess the year, you know, as.

1118
01:00:27.679 --> 01:00:29.679
<v Speaker 3>To what he was going to be so and now

1119
01:00:29.719 --> 01:00:31.000
<v Speaker 3>they're treating him. So what's that?

1120
01:00:31.960 --> 01:00:35.719
<v Speaker 1>I just love that. Yesterday my buddy, who was an

1121
01:00:35.760 --> 01:00:39.320
<v Speaker 1>insane Eagles fan, had like it was in about of

1122
01:00:39.440 --> 01:00:43.119
<v Speaker 1>depression because he's not. He goes, I'm not going to

1123
01:00:43.159 --> 01:00:46.599
<v Speaker 1>get a moment of rest because you saw what he

1124
01:00:46.719 --> 01:00:52.559
<v Speaker 1>opened the first NFL game Thursday night, Thursday night, September fourth, Eagles,

1125
01:00:52.639 --> 01:00:57.760
<v Speaker 1>cowgirl boys, excuse me, and you all hate each other?

1126
01:00:58.000 --> 01:01:00.519
<v Speaker 1>So yeah, ye, perfect, yeah.

1127
01:01:01.599 --> 01:01:04.840
<v Speaker 10>Yeah, So as all of us Cowboy fans in my

1128
01:01:04.920 --> 01:01:08.000
<v Speaker 10>family have been texting, well great to start the season.

1129
01:01:08.039 --> 01:01:10.440
<v Speaker 3>Oh and one maybe next year.

1130
01:01:10.920 --> 01:01:12.960
<v Speaker 1>Come on, no, no, no, you guys can upset the

1131
01:01:13.039 --> 01:01:15.840
<v Speaker 1>apple cart and each other. The two biggest fan bases

1132
01:01:15.880 --> 01:01:21.119
<v Speaker 1>in my friend group outside of the Panthers are Cowboys

1133
01:01:21.159 --> 01:01:24.079
<v Speaker 1>and Eagles family. So whenever they're playing each other, I

1134
01:01:24.199 --> 01:01:26.519
<v Speaker 1>just sit back and just the popcorn. You just watch.

1135
01:01:28.119 --> 01:01:30.320
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, it's uh, it should be fun. And you know

1136
01:01:30.400 --> 01:01:31.480
<v Speaker 3>I mentioned this last year.

1137
01:01:31.519 --> 01:01:34.400
<v Speaker 10>I've got so I kind of got a little bit

1138
01:01:34.519 --> 01:01:39.960
<v Speaker 10>now rooting for Eagles just because of uh Trotier and

1139
01:01:40.480 --> 01:01:41.719
<v Speaker 10>Chipley now.

1140
01:01:41.679 --> 01:01:43.440
<v Speaker 3>With the Eagles. But you know, we got MafA now,

1141
01:01:43.519 --> 01:01:45.400
<v Speaker 3>so we'll see if MafA makes the team, if he

1142
01:01:45.480 --> 01:01:46.239
<v Speaker 3>makes any impact.

1143
01:01:46.280 --> 01:01:49.400
<v Speaker 1>So I heard it him is gonna have six primetime

1144
01:01:49.559 --> 01:01:51.159
<v Speaker 1>games and they play in Buffalo.

1145
01:01:53.840 --> 01:01:56.880
<v Speaker 10>Did you know we're gonna We're gonna try all that again.

1146
01:01:57.159 --> 01:01:59.880
<v Speaker 3>Maybe this is our year, you know, maybe get over.

1147
01:01:59.800 --> 01:02:06.000
<v Speaker 1>The Ross is suspic he is uh superstitious that if

1148
01:02:06.039 --> 01:02:07.840
<v Speaker 1>they can't play at their normal time.

1149
01:02:07.760 --> 01:02:10.760
<v Speaker 3>It's oh so if it's not a one o'clock.

1150
01:02:10.480 --> 01:02:14.639
<v Speaker 1>It's not so it's personally an attack, that's what it is.

1151
01:02:15.239 --> 01:02:18.320
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, right this year? Yeah, yeah, I wish I.

1152
01:02:18.320 --> 01:02:20.360
<v Speaker 1>Wish we didn't have weather to talk about what we did?

1153
01:02:20.519 --> 01:02:23.400
<v Speaker 1>Is is there confirmation on Edgecombe County having a tornado?

1154
01:02:23.519 --> 01:02:24.119
<v Speaker 1>Did I see that?

1155
01:02:26.599 --> 01:02:30.440
<v Speaker 10>I believe there was. I know there was a warning

1156
01:02:30.480 --> 01:02:32.320
<v Speaker 10>earlier this morning. Is that the one you were talking about,

1157
01:02:32.360 --> 01:02:34.679
<v Speaker 10>where the one from Yeah, you had a warning, they

1158
01:02:34.719 --> 01:02:39.239
<v Speaker 10>wouldn't confirm it. Yeah, edge Comb, Yeah this is from yesterday.

1159
01:02:39.480 --> 01:02:41.039
<v Speaker 10>I know there was a warning this morning too, but

1160
01:02:41.119 --> 01:02:48.599
<v Speaker 10>Edgecomb did confirm your school sense of confirmed by by radar.

1161
01:02:48.760 --> 01:02:50.480
<v Speaker 10>So yeah, they'll go out and put a rating on

1162
01:02:50.559 --> 01:02:51.760
<v Speaker 10>it after they get a chance to go and look

1163
01:02:51.800 --> 01:02:53.800
<v Speaker 10>at it. But now the rain is a bigger threat

1164
01:02:53.800 --> 01:02:57.199
<v Speaker 10>through our stronger storms. A lot of it today in

1165
01:02:57.320 --> 01:03:01.960
<v Speaker 10>east out toward the outer banks. Heavy rain coming through Greenville,

1166
01:03:02.039 --> 01:03:04.880
<v Speaker 10>North Carolina right now, and up toward and heading north

1167
01:03:04.920 --> 01:03:08.039
<v Speaker 10>toward Hobgood and Scotland Neck in that direction. Some stronger

1168
01:03:08.119 --> 01:03:11.000
<v Speaker 10>storms too, might get warnings on those. There might be

1169
01:03:11.000 --> 01:03:12.920
<v Speaker 10>a little rotation in some of those storms. But I

1170
01:03:12.960 --> 01:03:15.719
<v Speaker 10>think it's all gonna stay east of ninety five, although

1171
01:03:15.800 --> 01:03:17.559
<v Speaker 10>many of us still in a flood watch from about

1172
01:03:17.559 --> 01:03:21.480
<v Speaker 10>the triangle east, more widely scattered stuff triangle back toward

1173
01:03:21.480 --> 01:03:23.559
<v Speaker 10>the west end of the triad today and tomorrow. I

1174
01:03:23.639 --> 01:03:25.159
<v Speaker 10>think toward the end of the week, CA see less

1175
01:03:25.199 --> 01:03:27.440
<v Speaker 10>of a chance of rain, still not zero, but might

1176
01:03:27.480 --> 01:03:29.880
<v Speaker 10>get a little warmer, might get a little more closer

1177
01:03:29.920 --> 01:03:32.440
<v Speaker 10>to the mid upper eighties, maybe ninety degrees, rather than

1178
01:03:32.480 --> 01:03:36.440
<v Speaker 10>these rain kind of cooled upper seventies, low eighties, which

1179
01:03:36.480 --> 01:03:38.000
<v Speaker 10>we'll have the next couple of days.

1180
01:03:38.480 --> 01:03:41.519
<v Speaker 1>Okay, all right, do appreciate it, sir. We'll chat again

1181
01:03:41.639 --> 01:03:42.360
<v Speaker 1>in an hour.

1182
01:03:42.519 --> 01:03:44.199
<v Speaker 3>Okay, okay, all right.

1183
01:03:44.360 --> 01:03:48.199
<v Speaker 1>Coming up on the show, people are really upset at McDonald's,

1184
01:03:48.440 --> 01:03:50.519
<v Speaker 1>and not for the normal stuff like oh, the ice

1185
01:03:50.559 --> 01:03:55.599
<v Speaker 1>cream machine's not working, or my order was wrong, right, no, no, no, no, no,

1186
01:03:57.079 --> 01:04:02.280
<v Speaker 1>the racism or something or agism or it's all the

1187
01:04:02.519 --> 01:04:05.480
<v Speaker 1>isms and we'll explain next. Hang on. Oh man, some

1188
01:04:05.559 --> 01:04:08.239
<v Speaker 1>people are so weird weird with weird, weird weird that

1189
01:04:08.320 --> 01:04:10.280
<v Speaker 1>they think we don't see through all of this stuff.

1190
01:04:11.480 --> 01:04:13.800
<v Speaker 1>But before I get to that, I just wanted to

1191
01:04:13.880 --> 01:04:17.519
<v Speaker 1>mention this McDonald's story because it seemed like a really

1192
01:04:17.639 --> 01:04:21.840
<v Speaker 1>like a non story to me, seems like a non story.

1193
01:04:21.880 --> 01:04:24.719
<v Speaker 1>I wasn't I wasn't surprised. Depending on where you go,

1194
01:04:25.199 --> 01:04:26.960
<v Speaker 1>and you know, you go to New York, or you

1195
01:04:27.039 --> 01:04:31.800
<v Speaker 1>go to small town in Ohio or wherever there is

1196
01:04:32.000 --> 01:04:35.800
<v Speaker 1>already going to be San Francisco, there's going to be

1197
01:04:35.880 --> 01:04:41.000
<v Speaker 1>two varying degrees a level of security that may present

1198
01:04:41.280 --> 01:04:44.239
<v Speaker 1>at a fast food restaurant, at a big box retailer,

1199
01:04:44.960 --> 01:04:48.880
<v Speaker 1>the pharmacy, right right, Some stores you go into literally

1200
01:04:49.079 --> 01:04:53.280
<v Speaker 1>everything is locked in a glass case. But you can

1201
01:04:53.400 --> 01:04:57.480
<v Speaker 1>go to another version of that store in another community

1202
01:04:58.360 --> 01:05:03.519
<v Speaker 1>and it's not all locked up up. And for whatever reason,

1203
01:05:03.599 --> 01:05:06.960
<v Speaker 1>the media can't just the only thing that they can

1204
01:05:07.079 --> 01:05:10.519
<v Speaker 1>try to filter that through is race, right, They just like,

1205
01:05:10.679 --> 01:05:13.480
<v Speaker 1>why is it We looked at this store in this

1206
01:05:13.679 --> 01:05:18.239
<v Speaker 1>community which has a fifty percent, you know, a non

1207
01:05:18.440 --> 01:05:21.440
<v Speaker 1>white population, and then we went to this community and

1208
01:05:21.639 --> 01:05:25.039
<v Speaker 1>you know, Amish Country, Pennsylvania that has a ten percent

1209
01:05:25.199 --> 01:05:29.559
<v Speaker 1>non white population, And therefore, because the level of accessibility

1210
01:05:29.639 --> 01:05:32.920
<v Speaker 1>for the products are different, it must be inherently about race,

1211
01:05:33.039 --> 01:05:38.480
<v Speaker 1>which is really really lazy. You think an employer wants

1212
01:05:38.559 --> 01:05:43.400
<v Speaker 1>to create an employer, a company, a business owner wants

1213
01:05:43.480 --> 01:05:46.440
<v Speaker 1>to create a scenario where they're likely going to sell

1214
01:05:46.599 --> 01:05:51.800
<v Speaker 1>less product. You think that's something that they strive to do.

1215
01:05:52.280 --> 01:05:55.480
<v Speaker 1>Because I don't know about you, but I can speak

1216
01:05:55.480 --> 01:05:58.000
<v Speaker 1>from experience. Do you know many things I haven't bought

1217
01:05:58.199 --> 01:06:01.199
<v Speaker 1>because they're locked up? And I just I don't have

1218
01:06:01.280 --> 01:06:03.440
<v Speaker 1>the time. Ross you ever not bought something because it's

1219
01:06:03.559 --> 01:06:05.639
<v Speaker 1>locked up behind a glass case and you just thought

1220
01:06:05.639 --> 01:06:08.360
<v Speaker 1>you're not gonna find somebody and deal with that. Uh yeah,

1221
01:06:08.400 --> 01:06:11.559
<v Speaker 1>all the time, all the time, and it gets so

1222
01:06:11.760 --> 01:06:13.920
<v Speaker 1>bad at some point where you go, Now, I'm not

1223
01:06:14.000 --> 01:06:15.880
<v Speaker 1>even going to that store, because I know if I

1224
01:06:15.920 --> 01:06:17.840
<v Speaker 1>got like I know, if I go to the Walmart

1225
01:06:18.000 --> 01:06:23.400
<v Speaker 1>right near the station, if I go into that Walmart

1226
01:06:23.519 --> 01:06:26.599
<v Speaker 1>and I want razor blades, because I made this mistake

1227
01:06:26.679 --> 01:06:29.320
<v Speaker 1>one time went up there, I'm like, I'm gonna get

1228
01:06:29.360 --> 01:06:34.599
<v Speaker 1>some razor blades. It was I had some time, so

1229
01:06:34.880 --> 01:06:38.119
<v Speaker 1>I followed it through to see what happened. I went

1230
01:06:38.280 --> 01:06:41.519
<v Speaker 1>on a fetch quest like in a video game for

1231
01:06:41.639 --> 01:06:44.320
<v Speaker 1>a half hour, trying to find somebody to open this

1232
01:06:44.480 --> 01:06:47.519
<v Speaker 1>crappy piece of plastic, which, by the way, I'm pretty

1233
01:06:47.559 --> 01:06:51.000
<v Speaker 1>sure that I could have broke open in two seconds

1234
01:06:51.039 --> 01:06:53.239
<v Speaker 1>with a quick pull in my hand so that I

1235
01:06:53.320 --> 01:06:55.480
<v Speaker 1>could pay you and have seen amount of money for

1236
01:06:55.599 --> 01:06:59.000
<v Speaker 1>something that is wildly overpriced. You know what, I will never,

1237
01:06:59.079 --> 01:07:01.119
<v Speaker 1>in my mind go if I need razors, thing to

1238
01:07:01.199 --> 01:07:05.039
<v Speaker 1>do again, go to Walmart, or at least that Walmart.

1239
01:07:05.159 --> 01:07:07.760
<v Speaker 4>There's two things I don't mess with. It's the stuff

1240
01:07:07.840 --> 01:07:11.559
<v Speaker 4>behind the plastic shielding container, and also it's the gas

1241
01:07:11.639 --> 01:07:13.400
<v Speaker 4>pump that tells me to go see the cashier.

1242
01:07:14.159 --> 01:07:16.239
<v Speaker 1>Oh, that could happen. I'm going to it. I'm just

1243
01:07:16.360 --> 01:07:18.679
<v Speaker 1>going to a different gas station or a different pump.

1244
01:07:19.519 --> 01:07:19.719
<v Speaker 3>Yeah.

1245
01:07:20.480 --> 01:07:23.440
<v Speaker 1>And so now because I know that at that Walmart,

1246
01:07:23.519 --> 01:07:26.519
<v Speaker 1>I'm not picking on that Walmart necessarily because it's damn

1247
01:07:26.559 --> 01:07:32.119
<v Speaker 1>near everyone around the North Carolina I've been in. But

1248
01:07:32.239 --> 01:07:34.159
<v Speaker 1>I just so now I'm not going to go there

1249
01:07:34.199 --> 01:07:36.400
<v Speaker 1>if I need that, Whereas in the past if I

1250
01:07:36.519 --> 01:07:39.800
<v Speaker 1>needed to pick up a couple things. It's never a

1251
01:07:39.920 --> 01:07:42.880
<v Speaker 1>couple things, is it. You go in there and you're like,

1252
01:07:42.920 --> 01:07:45.639
<v Speaker 1>all right, I got the razor blades and the ibuprof

1253
01:07:45.719 --> 01:07:48.199
<v Speaker 1>and I wanted and why do I have a thing

1254
01:07:48.280 --> 01:07:51.760
<v Speaker 1>of chocolate Halloween candy chocolate that's fifty percent off? And

1255
01:07:51.880 --> 01:07:54.360
<v Speaker 1>I bought some juice, and then they had this thing

1256
01:07:54.480 --> 01:07:56.639
<v Speaker 1>over here, and I need beef jerky because we all

1257
01:07:56.719 --> 01:07:59.360
<v Speaker 1>need beef jerky. And now I just spend fifty dollars

1258
01:07:59.440 --> 01:08:03.599
<v Speaker 1>at your store. So nobody's setting out to create a

1259
01:08:03.679 --> 01:08:07.119
<v Speaker 1>scenario where it's less successible unless they have to, and

1260
01:08:07.159 --> 01:08:09.280
<v Speaker 1>they're sure as hell not doing it as a major

1261
01:08:09.360 --> 01:08:14.119
<v Speaker 1>conglomerate so that they can essentially be clan members. Yet

1262
01:08:14.400 --> 01:08:19.159
<v Speaker 1>that's what people are alleging up in Virginia over this McDonald.

1263
01:08:19.319 --> 01:08:22.960
<v Speaker 9>This video obtained by News for shows the melee inside

1264
01:08:23.000 --> 01:08:26.880
<v Speaker 9>of this Fairfax County McDonald's last week. The location is

1265
01:08:26.960 --> 01:08:29.720
<v Speaker 9>right down the street from Thomas Edison High School in

1266
01:08:29.800 --> 01:08:31.159
<v Speaker 9>the Franconia neighborhood.

1267
01:08:31.439 --> 01:08:33.000
<v Speaker 1>These kids are off the chain.

1268
01:08:33.800 --> 01:08:37.600
<v Speaker 11>They had no respect, no discipline, and it seem like

1269
01:08:38.479 --> 01:08:41.079
<v Speaker 11>how they acted their parents allowed.

1270
01:08:40.840 --> 01:08:43.439
<v Speaker 1>Them to add well, by the way, that woman obviously

1271
01:08:43.600 --> 01:08:48.439
<v Speaker 1>clearly an evil, white racist woman, no doubt. Oh man,

1272
01:08:48.479 --> 01:08:50.319
<v Speaker 1>When you watch the video, you're like, Wow, that is

1273
01:08:50.439 --> 01:08:57.079
<v Speaker 1>the whitest racist woman ever ever. And she's like, nah,

1274
01:08:57.159 --> 01:08:59.640
<v Speaker 1>this is a problem. This is a problem.

1275
01:09:00.079 --> 01:09:03.479
<v Speaker 9>Inside tell us, young people, including some from Thomas Edison,

1276
01:09:03.840 --> 01:09:07.760
<v Speaker 9>can be seen fighting, heard cursing, and standing on tables

1277
01:09:07.800 --> 01:09:11.520
<v Speaker 9>in the video. Managers of the McDonald's say those actions

1278
01:09:11.600 --> 01:09:15.079
<v Speaker 9>and other similar incidents led to a new policy and

1279
01:09:15.199 --> 01:09:18.359
<v Speaker 9>this sign on the front door on Monday, reading quote,

1280
01:09:18.600 --> 01:09:22.479
<v Speaker 9>due to repeated incidents of student violence, the location is

1281
01:09:22.640 --> 01:09:26.760
<v Speaker 9>temporarily closed for dinah and service to anyone under twenty

1282
01:09:26.840 --> 01:09:28.039
<v Speaker 9>one years of age.

1283
01:09:29.199 --> 01:09:33.359
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, yeah, right, malls a lot of places doing this,

1284
01:09:33.600 --> 01:09:36.600
<v Speaker 1>and again it's not just a racial component thing. But

1285
01:09:36.800 --> 01:09:40.039
<v Speaker 1>because in this particular area, that high school is a

1286
01:09:40.239 --> 01:09:42.319
<v Speaker 1>predominant well I don't know if it's predominantly black, but

1287
01:09:42.359 --> 01:09:46.880
<v Speaker 1>it's predominantly a minority high school. Their their assumption is

1288
01:09:47.000 --> 01:09:50.279
<v Speaker 1>this is kids have acted like a holes in businesses

1289
01:09:50.520 --> 01:09:53.479
<v Speaker 1>from the dawn of time, regardless of skin color. The

1290
01:09:53.640 --> 01:09:57.359
<v Speaker 1>thing the difference is in some areas it is so compound,

1291
01:09:57.439 --> 01:10:00.039
<v Speaker 1>it's so rampant, and the incidents have been so so

1292
01:10:00.600 --> 01:10:05.680
<v Speaker 1>atrocious that the company then has to think about it

1293
01:10:05.800 --> 01:10:08.239
<v Speaker 1>outside of the realm of just being a nuisance, but

1294
01:10:08.399 --> 01:10:12.479
<v Speaker 1>being a potential liability, right because if somebody comes in

1295
01:10:12.600 --> 01:10:16.000
<v Speaker 1>there and and an altercation breaks out and you have

1296
01:10:16.119 --> 01:10:20.520
<v Speaker 1>one of those giant fifty person melees, there's lawyers lining

1297
01:10:20.600 --> 01:10:24.680
<v Speaker 1>up to sue McDonald's for not providing security. Fast food

1298
01:10:24.720 --> 01:10:27.399
<v Speaker 1>restaurants have been provided who have have been sued for

1299
01:10:27.560 --> 01:10:32.640
<v Speaker 1>not providing security and have lost because they inherently should

1300
01:10:32.640 --> 01:10:34.680
<v Speaker 1>have known that this was dangerous. Why do you think

1301
01:10:34.720 --> 01:10:39.199
<v Speaker 1>when you go there's some late night eating options, right, Like,

1302
01:10:39.399 --> 01:10:42.680
<v Speaker 1>I hop and I don't know if waffle houses are

1303
01:10:42.720 --> 01:10:44.399
<v Speaker 1>doing it? Yeah, how many videos you've seen over at

1304
01:10:44.439 --> 01:10:47.159
<v Speaker 1>a waffle house? They just had another crazy one the

1305
01:10:47.239 --> 01:10:51.159
<v Speaker 1>other day. But like you go to like the Iye

1306
01:10:51.239 --> 01:10:54.159
<v Speaker 1>hoop on Capitol has a security guard in it. I

1307
01:10:54.199 --> 01:10:56.159
<v Speaker 1>don't know if they still do, but I remember eating

1308
01:10:56.199 --> 01:10:59.800
<v Speaker 1>there one time before the show and I'm like, well,

1309
01:11:00.079 --> 01:11:03.239
<v Speaker 1>what's been happening in here? Man got a security guard

1310
01:11:03.319 --> 01:11:05.720
<v Speaker 1>in there. So the McDonald's is sitting there and they're

1311
01:11:05.720 --> 01:11:08.640
<v Speaker 1>having to decide whether they stay, whether they literally stay

1312
01:11:08.720 --> 01:11:11.399
<v Speaker 1>in business, or if they can mitigate it so that

1313
01:11:11.520 --> 01:11:16.159
<v Speaker 1>they can still serve customers there. That's all that they're

1314
01:11:16.239 --> 01:11:20.520
<v Speaker 1>trying to do. Man, McDonald's doesn't give too It's somebody,

1315
01:11:20.600 --> 01:11:24.039
<v Speaker 1>some higher up who made this call in concert. I'm

1316
01:11:24.119 --> 01:11:27.520
<v Speaker 1>sure with whoever the franchise he is, who probably had

1317
01:11:27.520 --> 01:11:31.319
<v Speaker 1>to get this cleared through McDonald's corporate right. It's not

1318
01:11:31.439 --> 01:11:33.560
<v Speaker 1>the first phone call they've had about this stuff.

1319
01:11:33.760 --> 01:11:36.000
<v Speaker 11>Ye'ah smoking, y'all, drinking, y'all customer, come.

1320
01:11:35.960 --> 01:11:37.079
<v Speaker 1>On, y'o Like, come on.

1321
01:11:37.760 --> 01:11:40.640
<v Speaker 9>Stacy says she along with her grandkids stop by the

1322
01:11:40.720 --> 01:11:43.760
<v Speaker 9>Golden Arches location in the past and saw a group

1323
01:11:43.880 --> 01:11:48.479
<v Speaker 9>of young people disrupting other customers inside. She says she's

1324
01:11:48.560 --> 01:11:49.640
<v Speaker 9>okay with the new rule.

1325
01:11:49.920 --> 01:11:53.279
<v Speaker 11>I understand where they coming from because that's turning customers away.

1326
01:11:54.359 --> 01:11:58.359
<v Speaker 11>If you hear you acting up, they losing a business.

1327
01:11:58.800 --> 01:12:01.880
<v Speaker 9>Management says adult age twenty one and up can still

1328
01:12:02.039 --> 01:12:05.439
<v Speaker 9>enjoy their Big Max and Happy meals inside. It may

1329
01:12:05.479 --> 01:12:08.600
<v Speaker 9>be asked to show their ID to get service. Customers

1330
01:12:08.680 --> 01:12:14.359
<v Speaker 9>need to bring the doorbell and a team member will

1331
01:12:14.439 --> 01:12:15.239
<v Speaker 9>let you inside.

1332
01:12:15.479 --> 01:12:17.560
<v Speaker 1>This McDonald's. I would have never expected it.

1333
01:12:17.960 --> 01:12:21.520
<v Speaker 9>Other customers like Bridget say she hopes young people understand

1334
01:12:21.640 --> 01:12:23.960
<v Speaker 9>that their actions have consequences.

1335
01:12:24.159 --> 01:12:26.680
<v Speaker 5>The company is to be a safe establishment for families

1336
01:12:26.680 --> 01:12:27.560
<v Speaker 5>to enjoy their foods.

1337
01:12:27.880 --> 01:12:28.439
<v Speaker 1>Young people.

1338
01:12:28.640 --> 01:12:30.600
<v Speaker 5>We can't just you know, we want to take that

1339
01:12:30.800 --> 01:12:32.239
<v Speaker 5>energy and redirect it.

1340
01:12:32.720 --> 01:12:35.079
<v Speaker 1>And by the way, I will say this too, what

1341
01:12:35.239 --> 01:12:41.079
<v Speaker 1>an exceptionally I think balanced piece of local media reporting

1342
01:12:42.079 --> 01:12:44.840
<v Speaker 1>who clearly hadn't jumped on this train of their doing

1343
01:12:44.920 --> 01:12:47.720
<v Speaker 1>it because but social media is on that train and

1344
01:12:47.840 --> 01:12:50.000
<v Speaker 1>it's just going to keep getting worse. Did you see

1345
01:12:50.039 --> 01:12:53.039
<v Speaker 1>the number of melees that we had on Mother's Day

1346
01:12:53.359 --> 01:12:58.279
<v Speaker 1>just in North Carolina? So so two people are under

1347
01:12:58.399 --> 01:13:02.760
<v Speaker 1>arrest because somebody wanted to shoot up Big EDGs. I'm

1348
01:13:02.800 --> 01:13:08.359
<v Speaker 1>gonna say that because it's Big Eggs restaurant. Who have

1349
01:13:08.479 --> 01:13:12.119
<v Speaker 1>you been to Big Eggs? Who's shooting anybody at Big Eggs.

1350
01:13:13.119 --> 01:13:15.199
<v Speaker 1>The only thing you should take away from Big EDGs

1351
01:13:15.439 --> 01:13:18.119
<v Speaker 1>is if you get and I recommend the smoke sausage

1352
01:13:18.159 --> 01:13:21.640
<v Speaker 1>with the oh yeah, I really like that. That that

1353
01:13:21.760 --> 01:13:25.039
<v Speaker 1>smoke sausage that they have there Big Old Breakfast. They're heartburn.

1354
01:13:25.159 --> 01:13:27.840
<v Speaker 1>That should be your takeaway from Big Ads. It's so

1355
01:13:28.159 --> 01:13:31.079
<v Speaker 1>good though. I love me some Big Ads man. And

1356
01:13:31.159 --> 01:13:32.720
<v Speaker 1>I don't even have to go downtown because I got

1357
01:13:32.720 --> 01:13:34.800
<v Speaker 1>the one at quel Holo now, except it's closed for

1358
01:13:34.800 --> 01:13:36.960
<v Speaker 1>a couple of days because people could not get in

1359
01:13:37.000 --> 01:13:42.359
<v Speaker 1>a gunfight. And then the g ced the Golden Corral

1360
01:13:42.960 --> 01:13:48.479
<v Speaker 1>in Greensboro, there's a there's like three women going full

1361
01:13:48.560 --> 01:13:51.319
<v Speaker 1>battle royale in the little entry you know the door

1362
01:13:51.439 --> 01:13:53.399
<v Speaker 1>the first story, come in and there's that little pause

1363
01:13:53.439 --> 01:13:55.560
<v Speaker 1>area and then you go in the main one. Actually

1364
01:13:55.600 --> 01:13:58.319
<v Speaker 1>walk into the restaurant. They're having a they're having a

1365
01:13:58.399 --> 01:14:02.239
<v Speaker 1>full on battle royale cage match in that thing, and

1366
01:14:02.359 --> 01:14:06.159
<v Speaker 1>it looks like there's old mom, middle mom, and a

1367
01:14:06.279 --> 01:14:09.239
<v Speaker 1>young mom and I don't know who's winning. Also, it's

1368
01:14:09.279 --> 01:14:14.720
<v Speaker 1>sometimes hard to tell which is which because it's just

1369
01:14:14.920 --> 01:14:17.680
<v Speaker 1>it's just crazy. There's video I retweeted at Casey on

1370
01:14:17.720 --> 01:14:19.439
<v Speaker 1>the radio. How do you not go? What are you

1371
01:14:19.520 --> 01:14:22.800
<v Speaker 1>beating each other up at Golden Corral? Over? Is there

1372
01:14:22.840 --> 01:14:27.520
<v Speaker 1>an acceptable moment at Golden Corral to strike another patron?

1373
01:14:29.640 --> 01:14:32.439
<v Speaker 1>I mean, think about the stuff that people do at

1374
01:14:32.439 --> 01:14:36.840
<v Speaker 1>a buffet, thing like that, their kids sticking their nasty

1375
01:14:36.920 --> 01:14:39.840
<v Speaker 1>fingers and chocolate water fountains and stuff. And still you

1376
01:14:39.880 --> 01:14:42.119
<v Speaker 1>shouldn't be hitting people. But now they're going and it's

1377
01:14:42.199 --> 01:14:48.800
<v Speaker 1>in its mother's day. This is how you get This

1378
01:14:48.840 --> 01:14:51.039
<v Speaker 1>is how you end up with a door bell at McDonald's, which,

1379
01:14:51.119 --> 01:14:54.359
<v Speaker 1>by the way, the team member probably wants less to

1380
01:14:54.479 --> 01:14:57.680
<v Speaker 1>deal with it than you. I want to come back

1381
01:14:57.760 --> 01:15:01.159
<v Speaker 1>from the counter. I'm not, but I kind of am.

1382
01:15:01.640 --> 01:15:06.920
<v Speaker 1>People will work overnight at McDonald's. They're not necessarily the

1383
01:15:06.960 --> 01:15:11.399
<v Speaker 1>most outgoing individuals, and that's okay. I don't want to

1384
01:15:11.439 --> 01:15:13.600
<v Speaker 1>deal with people who are drunk at two or three

1385
01:15:13.680 --> 01:15:15.760
<v Speaker 1>in the morning. Like I understand why they gird their

1386
01:15:15.880 --> 01:15:19.960
<v Speaker 1>loins when the bars closed and people come in. That

1387
01:15:20.119 --> 01:15:24.359
<v Speaker 1>being said, like this is this is inevitable when you

1388
01:15:24.479 --> 01:15:27.159
<v Speaker 1>keep having problems, all right, eight eight eight nine three

1389
01:15:27.279 --> 01:15:29.640
<v Speaker 1>four seven eight seven four If you want to, I

1390
01:15:29.720 --> 01:15:32.760
<v Speaker 1>get on the show. So yes, McDonald's with a doorbell

1391
01:15:32.800 --> 01:15:36.119
<v Speaker 1>has offended people. And uh and I got to watch

1392
01:15:36.319 --> 01:15:39.319
<v Speaker 1>fight videos from like Big Ads, which I love eating

1393
01:15:39.319 --> 01:15:41.920
<v Speaker 1>the Big Ads. And Golden Corral is good too. Ross

1394
01:15:41.960 --> 01:15:44.039
<v Speaker 1>you guys, You guys got a Golden Corral up by

1395
01:15:44.079 --> 01:15:47.840
<v Speaker 1>your house. It's big and fancy and new. Right, No, no, wait,

1396
01:15:47.960 --> 01:15:49.800
<v Speaker 1>which one did you have the We had one. It

1397
01:15:49.880 --> 01:15:55.119
<v Speaker 1>closed during COVID. Oh it never reopened. I thought it

1398
01:15:55.239 --> 01:15:59.800
<v Speaker 1>reopened up there. Oh oh no, I'm sorry man, Well,

1399
01:15:59.840 --> 01:16:02.359
<v Speaker 1>we need to get a petition or something. Do you

1400
01:16:02.399 --> 01:16:05.760
<v Speaker 1>have any buffet over up there now? Other than that,

1401
01:16:06.000 --> 01:16:10.560
<v Speaker 1>there's probably like a Chinese buffet. Oh no, all right, Well,

1402
01:16:10.640 --> 01:16:12.720
<v Speaker 1>when they put that toll road in, I'm sure that'll

1403
01:16:12.800 --> 01:16:17.319
<v Speaker 1>help spring it forward, all right, eight to eighteen? Hang on,

1404
01:16:17.880 --> 01:16:20.000
<v Speaker 1>So the age thing isn't working out, So now we're

1405
01:16:20.000 --> 01:16:22.600
<v Speaker 1>onto the toilet paper shortage. By the way, as long

1406
01:16:22.640 --> 01:16:25.960
<v Speaker 1>as newspapers keep printing, there's never a toilet paper shortage,

1407
01:16:26.079 --> 01:16:29.960
<v Speaker 1>not in this country, not at all. It's not just

1408
01:16:30.039 --> 01:16:32.199
<v Speaker 1>for your pets. Although if it was for your pets,

1409
01:16:34.399 --> 01:16:39.800
<v Speaker 1>fifty six percent of you or crazy man, I saw

1410
01:16:39.880 --> 01:16:44.199
<v Speaker 1>this stat. Are you ready for this? Fifty six percent

1411
01:16:44.279 --> 01:16:47.239
<v Speaker 1>of pet owners would cut their own live short to

1412
01:16:47.359 --> 01:16:53.399
<v Speaker 1>extend their pets. Really, you think that cat is just

1413
01:16:53.479 --> 01:16:55.560
<v Speaker 1>sitting around to eat you. If you ever slip and

1414
01:16:55.640 --> 01:16:57.880
<v Speaker 1>fall in the tub and can't hit your life alert

1415
01:16:58.000 --> 01:17:00.720
<v Speaker 1>fast enough, you think that cat would give few years

1416
01:17:00.760 --> 01:17:05.800
<v Speaker 1>of its life. And they got nine of them. Who's

1417
01:17:05.920 --> 01:17:06.319
<v Speaker 1>doing that?

1418
01:17:07.039 --> 01:17:07.319
<v Speaker 3>You know?

1419
01:17:07.399 --> 01:17:09.159
<v Speaker 1>They say stuff like this, but I don't believe them.

1420
01:17:10.000 --> 01:17:11.760
<v Speaker 1>Right if you if you're to sit there, there's a

1421
01:17:11.800 --> 01:17:14.199
<v Speaker 1>little machine where you're attached to it, and you know,

1422
01:17:14.319 --> 01:17:16.880
<v Speaker 1>it's like the thing in the pit of despair, right,

1423
01:17:16.960 --> 01:17:19.359
<v Speaker 1>and you get the little head thing on right, and

1424
01:17:19.439 --> 01:17:22.119
<v Speaker 1>they're like, all right, we're gonna take five years off

1425
01:17:22.159 --> 01:17:25.239
<v Speaker 1>your life and we're gonna give it to the uh

1426
01:17:26.039 --> 01:17:30.119
<v Speaker 1>to you know, fighto over there or mister plastic eater cat.

1427
01:17:30.800 --> 01:17:32.920
<v Speaker 1>And then they're like, all right, you ready to do this.

1428
01:17:33.159 --> 01:17:35.439
<v Speaker 1>Everyone's like yeah, I would totally do that, would you.

1429
01:17:36.079 --> 01:17:36.279
<v Speaker 2>You know?

1430
01:17:36.359 --> 01:17:38.319
<v Speaker 1>And they say the same thing like, listen, I understand

1431
01:17:38.359 --> 01:17:39.039
<v Speaker 1>you love your pets.

1432
01:17:39.880 --> 01:17:40.079
<v Speaker 12>We do.

1433
01:17:40.199 --> 01:17:41.840
<v Speaker 4>We love our cats. But people are like, oh, they're

1434
01:17:41.880 --> 01:17:44.439
<v Speaker 4>like our children. Well, if there was the ultimate test,

1435
01:17:44.520 --> 01:17:46.880
<v Speaker 4>and Heaven forbid, you wouldn't want it. But your house

1436
01:17:46.960 --> 01:17:49.399
<v Speaker 4>is on fire and your kid is in there, and

1437
01:17:49.479 --> 01:17:51.680
<v Speaker 4>your pet is in there, and you can only rescue one.

1438
01:17:51.760 --> 01:17:52.760
<v Speaker 4>Which one are you picking?

1439
01:17:54.840 --> 01:17:58.039
<v Speaker 1>Does the does the dog fetch beers from the fridge?

1440
01:17:58.119 --> 01:17:58.319
<v Speaker 6>For me?

1441
01:18:00.039 --> 01:18:00.079
<v Speaker 3>What?

1442
01:18:01.239 --> 01:18:03.760
<v Speaker 1>I don't know. It's like, what was that mccaullay culkin

1443
01:18:03.840 --> 01:18:06.560
<v Speaker 1>movie where the final scene is the good son?

1444
01:18:06.720 --> 01:18:06.840
<v Speaker 12>Right?

1445
01:18:07.800 --> 01:18:08.800
<v Speaker 1>Do you remember that movie?

1446
01:18:09.039 --> 01:18:09.079
<v Speaker 6>No?

1447
01:18:09.920 --> 01:18:11.760
<v Speaker 1>Oh, so they had this mccau when he was still

1448
01:18:11.880 --> 01:18:14.920
<v Speaker 1>somewhat young and not you know, I had not gone

1449
01:18:15.039 --> 01:18:19.439
<v Speaker 1>full older mccaullay Culkin, except he was Kevin McAllister, but

1450
01:18:19.680 --> 01:18:21.520
<v Speaker 1>like satanic Kevin McAllister.

1451
01:18:21.680 --> 01:18:23.279
<v Speaker 4>Oh, I think I might remember that. I kind of

1452
01:18:23.359 --> 01:18:26.199
<v Speaker 4>like tuned out of McCauley culkin movies after he was

1453
01:18:26.319 --> 01:18:27.159
<v Speaker 4>murdered by the bees.

1454
01:18:28.079 --> 01:18:33.239
<v Speaker 1>He was Wow, spoiler alert. Come on, don I'm not

1455
01:18:33.439 --> 01:18:34.079
<v Speaker 1>risking that again.

1456
01:18:34.119 --> 01:18:36.680
<v Speaker 4>You're watching like a random mccaullay culkin movie years later,

1457
01:18:36.760 --> 01:18:40.159
<v Speaker 4>and it's like he's sitting there and murdered by moss

1458
01:18:40.319 --> 01:18:42.119
<v Speaker 4>or something stupid, like, I'm not taking a chance on

1459
01:18:42.199 --> 01:18:42.560
<v Speaker 4>that again.

1460
01:18:43.159 --> 01:18:45.720
<v Speaker 1>Well, okay, but what would you say, is a more

1461
01:18:45.800 --> 01:18:51.119
<v Speaker 1>formidable adversary the wet bandits or bees pribe bees? Yeah,

1462
01:18:51.359 --> 01:18:53.800
<v Speaker 1>sounds like it. No, so in this movie, I can't

1463
01:18:53.800 --> 01:18:56.640
<v Speaker 1>remember if I think he's the actual son of the woman,

1464
01:18:56.760 --> 01:18:58.680
<v Speaker 1>and I can't remember the other kid comes from, like

1465
01:18:59.560 --> 01:19:03.159
<v Speaker 1>is it a opted kid or whatever, But Macaulay Culkin's

1466
01:19:03.279 --> 01:19:06.479
<v Speaker 1>just evil. And then the climactic scene is she's got

1467
01:19:06.560 --> 01:19:08.840
<v Speaker 1>her hands, she's got to reach for one. They're both

1468
01:19:08.920 --> 01:19:11.439
<v Speaker 1>hanging off a cliff. So it kind of a Sophie's

1469
01:19:11.520 --> 01:19:13.920
<v Speaker 1>choice thing, but there's not really a choice. You're like, yeah,

1470
01:19:14.239 --> 01:19:16.800
<v Speaker 1>let that little bastard die. He's just gonna get killed

1471
01:19:16.840 --> 01:19:20.720
<v Speaker 1>by bees in a few minutes. Anyway, So you probably

1472
01:19:20.800 --> 01:19:24.159
<v Speaker 1>heard this too. There are people concerned that AI, and

1473
01:19:24.239 --> 01:19:26.399
<v Speaker 1>there are already people like this that exist. I remember

1474
01:19:26.479 --> 01:19:30.720
<v Speaker 1>doing a story that if the the better it gets,

1475
01:19:30.840 --> 01:19:33.439
<v Speaker 1>the more likely that people may start to give it,

1476
01:19:33.560 --> 01:19:37.880
<v Speaker 1>to deify it, treat it as some sort of deity,

1477
01:19:39.159 --> 01:19:42.960
<v Speaker 1>which I guess I can understand how people get there, right, Like,

1478
01:19:43.399 --> 01:19:45.439
<v Speaker 1>I don't know, there's some you go back far enough,

1479
01:19:45.479 --> 01:19:48.560
<v Speaker 1>there's there's all sorts of people just randomly deciding that

1480
01:19:48.720 --> 01:19:51.119
<v Speaker 1>something's something they're gonna worship. AI is just a little

1481
01:19:51.159 --> 01:19:55.720
<v Speaker 1>more inactive. I heard golden calves are popular. I don't know,

1482
01:19:55.920 --> 01:19:59.319
<v Speaker 1>it was uh something I heard, But in this case,

1483
01:19:59.479 --> 01:20:02.640
<v Speaker 1>like I've seen that, and that isn't actual concern because

1484
01:20:04.119 --> 01:20:07.239
<v Speaker 1>people are sheep man, You're like, you don't have to

1485
01:20:07.279 --> 01:20:09.319
<v Speaker 1>be an AI that just figured out how to not

1486
01:20:09.600 --> 01:20:13.800
<v Speaker 1>like deny the Holocaust with you're random programming to influence people.

1487
01:20:14.760 --> 01:20:17.880
<v Speaker 1>Some of those conversations are downright creepy. Why do I

1488
01:20:18.000 --> 01:20:22.680
<v Speaker 1>point this out? Okay, I point this out because one

1489
01:20:22.760 --> 01:20:27.319
<v Speaker 1>of the people are using AI as fortune telling machines now,

1490
01:20:28.960 --> 01:20:32.560
<v Speaker 1>which is which is a very interesting thing actually, because

1491
01:20:33.680 --> 01:20:40.279
<v Speaker 1>if you ask an AI a AI fortune teller thing,

1492
01:20:40.399 --> 01:20:43.000
<v Speaker 1>whatever you'd call it, I don't I don't know what

1493
01:20:43.079 --> 01:20:44.920
<v Speaker 1>you'd call it be I guess you could just resurrect

1494
01:20:44.960 --> 01:20:47.960
<v Speaker 1>Miss Cleo for it, right, and you ask it a

1495
01:20:48.079 --> 01:20:52.479
<v Speaker 1>question to like, hey, uh, what do you think do

1496
01:20:52.680 --> 01:20:56.600
<v Speaker 1>you think that my relationship will be successful with this person? Like,

1497
01:20:56.720 --> 01:20:58.800
<v Speaker 1>you know, there's a lot of love questions you generally

1498
01:20:58.880 --> 01:21:00.439
<v Speaker 1>see in a movie when so I've never been to

1499
01:21:00.439 --> 01:21:02.159
<v Speaker 1>a fort. Has you ever been to a fortune teller?

1500
01:21:03.199 --> 01:21:05.600
<v Speaker 1>You're even just for to see how that goes, like

1501
01:21:05.640 --> 01:21:07.800
<v Speaker 1>an affair or something. I was always creeped out by it,

1502
01:21:07.880 --> 01:21:11.119
<v Speaker 1>so I never have, like the tarot cards and stuff.

1503
01:21:11.279 --> 01:21:15.119
<v Speaker 1>I don't know. My mom thought this Smurfs were satanic,

1504
01:21:15.199 --> 01:21:18.159
<v Speaker 1>so we couldn't watch it. So tarot cards was out,

1505
01:21:18.159 --> 01:21:21.319
<v Speaker 1>Oigi boards out, man, and there's a lot of discussion

1506
01:21:21.399 --> 01:21:25.520
<v Speaker 1>about using tarot cards and Ouigi boards as spiritually opening

1507
01:21:25.600 --> 01:21:30.680
<v Speaker 1>yourself up. So that's a whole nother discussion. So, uh,

1508
01:21:30.920 --> 01:21:34.680
<v Speaker 1>there's a story about Greek fortune, a lady who's Greek,

1509
01:21:35.239 --> 01:21:39.239
<v Speaker 1>who is just one example of people that are using

1510
01:21:39.439 --> 01:21:47.319
<v Speaker 1>chat GPT to tell their fortunes. What a what a

1511
01:21:47.479 --> 01:21:52.279
<v Speaker 1>crazy tool you could manipulate by the way right there, Like,

1512
01:21:52.359 --> 01:21:56.079
<v Speaker 1>what's somebody asking like if it was wholescale large enough,

1513
01:21:56.159 --> 01:21:59.439
<v Speaker 1>you can manipulate currency with that. If I just could

1514
01:21:59.439 --> 01:22:01.840
<v Speaker 1>put on my you know, my doctor evil had for

1515
01:22:01.960 --> 01:22:06.359
<v Speaker 1>a moment and chat GPT told him or that her

1516
01:22:06.439 --> 01:22:11.479
<v Speaker 1>husband was cheating, and so she just divorced them. She

1517
01:22:11.640 --> 01:22:14.880
<v Speaker 1>filed for divorce. You know it read the coffee grounds, right,

1518
01:22:15.119 --> 01:22:18.439
<v Speaker 1>it read the coffee grounds. Yes, correct. They posted a

1519
01:22:18.479 --> 01:22:22.960
<v Speaker 1>photo of coffee grounds and used it to read her

1520
01:22:23.119 --> 01:22:27.119
<v Speaker 1>future surrounding her husband's whether he was being faithful or not.

1521
01:22:27.279 --> 01:22:29.640
<v Speaker 1>I don't know if he was or he wasn't, but

1522
01:22:29.840 --> 01:22:32.720
<v Speaker 1>it seemed like once chat GPT said nope, that's what

1523
01:22:32.800 --> 01:22:36.359
<v Speaker 1>the coffee grounds say, they signed off on it. But

1524
01:22:36.479 --> 01:22:40.920
<v Speaker 1>here's the thing. A chat GPT. Also if it has

1525
01:22:41.039 --> 01:22:45.039
<v Speaker 1>a you know, if it has enough information not about

1526
01:22:45.039 --> 01:22:48.359
<v Speaker 1>the coffee grounds anymore, maybe chat GPT and I don't

1527
01:22:48.359 --> 01:22:52.319
<v Speaker 1>know in this scenario, could find photos or messages that

1528
01:22:52.479 --> 01:22:55.279
<v Speaker 1>are online that it had access to that maybe the

1529
01:22:55.359 --> 01:22:59.279
<v Speaker 1>wife didn't find because the mistress posted some stuff on

1530
01:22:59.479 --> 01:23:04.199
<v Speaker 1>Facebook thinking she was being because the wife's blocked. Right, well,

1531
01:23:04.760 --> 01:23:08.600
<v Speaker 1>is chat GPT telling your future at that point, or

1532
01:23:08.920 --> 01:23:11.439
<v Speaker 1>you know, asking for the psychic intervention or is it

1533
01:23:11.600 --> 01:23:14.960
<v Speaker 1>using available data points to arrive at it. What's crazy

1534
01:23:15.000 --> 01:23:17.079
<v Speaker 1>about this is it's reading coffee.

1535
01:23:16.720 --> 01:23:18.960
<v Speaker 4>Grounds, right, So if you program it to be like,

1536
01:23:19.079 --> 01:23:22.720
<v Speaker 4>you know, read tarot cards or read proms or something,

1537
01:23:22.840 --> 01:23:26.199
<v Speaker 4>I mean that's not exactly science. Yeah, whatever you you

1538
01:23:26.600 --> 01:23:28.239
<v Speaker 4>you load into it, it's going to be like all right,

1539
01:23:28.239 --> 01:23:30.000
<v Speaker 4>well I'm going to produce an answer for that. So

1540
01:23:30.119 --> 01:23:34.039
<v Speaker 4>maybe it is an expert quote reading coffee grounds. But

1541
01:23:34.600 --> 01:23:36.760
<v Speaker 4>to the voice, she just printed out, like you know,

1542
01:23:36.960 --> 01:23:40.359
<v Speaker 4>she she got the results, printed out the divorce papers

1543
01:23:40.439 --> 01:23:41.039
<v Speaker 4>and served them.

1544
01:23:41.079 --> 01:23:45.079
<v Speaker 1>She's like, yeah, we're getting divorced. Yeah, story, that's nuts.

1545
01:23:45.600 --> 01:23:49.840
<v Speaker 1>That's just crazy, man. I feel like she wanted a divorce, right,

1546
01:23:49.880 --> 01:23:52.840
<v Speaker 1>I'm thinking the relationship probably wasn't that great to begin with, right, right,

1547
01:23:53.960 --> 01:23:56.039
<v Speaker 1>But also you get this scenario that I laid out

1548
01:23:56.079 --> 01:23:58.560
<v Speaker 1>where you ask chat cheepage, is my husband cheating on me?

1549
01:23:59.079 --> 01:24:01.079
<v Speaker 1>And and you do it from a psychic standpoint. But

1550
01:24:01.399 --> 01:24:03.640
<v Speaker 1>but it's able to see social media accounts that the

1551
01:24:03.680 --> 01:24:05.720
<v Speaker 1>wife may be blocked on and then put two and

1552
01:24:05.800 --> 01:24:08.760
<v Speaker 1>two together because it can you know, you know, start

1553
01:24:08.840 --> 01:24:12.680
<v Speaker 1>to process that information. So in a way it kind

1554
01:24:12.720 --> 01:24:15.279
<v Speaker 1>of provides you an answer which is seemingly accurate. But

1555
01:24:15.319 --> 01:24:18.800
<v Speaker 1>the coffee grounds thing was a whole twist. This is like, uh,

1556
01:24:18.960 --> 01:24:20.920
<v Speaker 1>this is ros you ever talked to a woman before

1557
01:24:20.920 --> 01:24:24.640
<v Speaker 1>you were married? And uh, and the the astrology thing

1558
01:24:24.720 --> 01:24:26.239
<v Speaker 1>came up. Yeah.

1559
01:24:26.359 --> 01:24:28.760
<v Speaker 4>No, I've known people that were like super into astrology

1560
01:24:28.840 --> 01:24:33.159
<v Speaker 4>and I'm like, I'm not, I guess.

1561
01:24:33.560 --> 01:24:35.319
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, but have you seen people that allow it to

1562
01:24:35.359 --> 01:24:36.479
<v Speaker 1>make it as Yeah?

1563
01:24:36.520 --> 01:24:36.720
<v Speaker 6>I have?

1564
01:24:36.960 --> 01:24:37.119
<v Speaker 2>Yeah.

1565
01:24:37.199 --> 01:24:39.319
<v Speaker 4>No, I said, I dated a witch when I was

1566
01:24:39.359 --> 01:24:42.399
<v Speaker 4>at ome was She was a straight up witch. Yeah,

1567
01:24:42.479 --> 01:24:44.880
<v Speaker 4>and she worked in like the witch store in the

1568
01:24:45.000 --> 01:24:45.560
<v Speaker 4>mall there.

1569
01:24:45.520 --> 01:24:48.199
<v Speaker 2>Was this was what.

1570
01:24:50.680 --> 01:24:53.159
<v Speaker 1>It was like a weird witch store. I don't even

1571
01:24:53.279 --> 01:24:55.199
<v Speaker 1>remember what it was clear what mall was this?

1572
01:24:55.520 --> 01:24:57.640
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, No, the one and there was one in Omaha

1573
01:24:57.840 --> 01:25:00.159
<v Speaker 4>and it was like this little like corner store you'd

1574
01:25:00.199 --> 01:25:02.159
<v Speaker 4>walk in into. Just imagine what you think would be

1575
01:25:02.199 --> 01:25:04.319
<v Speaker 4>in like a witch store. Like it had like books

1576
01:25:04.359 --> 01:25:08.640
<v Speaker 4>of spells and yeah, lots of different witch ca Yeah,

1577
01:25:09.439 --> 01:25:14.159
<v Speaker 4>lots of different candles and stupid crystals and stones and

1578
01:25:14.319 --> 01:25:17.319
<v Speaker 4>you know, like you know, you know, I don't know spiders,

1579
01:25:17.359 --> 01:25:18.800
<v Speaker 4>I don't know what the hell they sold, but you

1580
01:25:18.880 --> 01:25:20.720
<v Speaker 4>know it's like a witch store. That's what I'm sure

1581
01:25:20.720 --> 01:25:22.319
<v Speaker 4>it's not. There's no way it's still in business.

1582
01:25:22.319 --> 01:25:24.000
<v Speaker 1>Wait, so how did you meet her? Were you in

1583
01:25:24.199 --> 01:25:25.000
<v Speaker 1>the witch store?

1584
01:25:27.000 --> 01:25:30.039
<v Speaker 4>Rich part time at the radio station. She was actually

1585
01:25:30.039 --> 01:25:33.279
<v Speaker 4>the producer for the talk show there, and I worked

1586
01:25:33.359 --> 01:25:36.000
<v Speaker 4>next door doing nights in the top forty station.

1587
01:25:36.720 --> 01:25:40.119
<v Speaker 1>We can have a witch produced this show. I wouldn't

1588
01:25:40.119 --> 01:25:41.319
<v Speaker 1>want to get rid of you, but like.

1589
01:25:41.479 --> 01:25:44.920
<v Speaker 4>I don't know that's that could be bad, dude, because

1590
01:25:45.000 --> 01:25:46.640
<v Speaker 4>like you piss them off, they're going to curse you.

1591
01:25:46.760 --> 01:25:48.239
<v Speaker 1>Well, I was just going to ask how did your

1592
01:25:48.279 --> 01:25:54.119
<v Speaker 1>relationship end? Not well? Not well, did you get like

1593
01:25:54.239 --> 01:25:57.239
<v Speaker 1>you're crazy because you're you're a witch? I mean, were

1594
01:25:57.239 --> 01:26:00.399
<v Speaker 1>you a little nervous after you? Remember these looted? There

1595
01:26:00.439 --> 01:26:02.640
<v Speaker 1>were casting spells on Trump every election?

1596
01:26:03.560 --> 01:26:06.000
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, they said they're going to the witches were trying

1597
01:26:06.039 --> 01:26:08.720
<v Speaker 4>to curse Trump, and they were saying their curses were

1598
01:26:08.760 --> 01:26:12.399
<v Speaker 4>bouncing back, and the theory was Trump was using stronger witches.

1599
01:26:12.960 --> 01:26:16.479
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, which, hey, that's what you do, man, that's a

1600
01:26:16.600 --> 01:26:19.720
<v Speaker 1>that's business, right, They got attorneys, You get better attorneys, right,

1601
01:26:21.199 --> 01:26:23.800
<v Speaker 1>you got they got somebody as ruthless as deals. You

1602
01:26:23.840 --> 01:26:26.439
<v Speaker 1>get your own ruthless deals. Got they got witches coming

1603
01:26:26.520 --> 01:26:26.840
<v Speaker 1>after you.

1604
01:26:26.920 --> 01:26:27.279
<v Speaker 2>I do it.

1605
01:26:27.720 --> 01:26:28.119
<v Speaker 6>I know.

1606
01:26:28.199 --> 01:26:29.720
<v Speaker 1>I don't want to look up the audio because we're

1607
01:26:29.720 --> 01:26:33.159
<v Speaker 1>total I remember that. I remember because somebody was like

1608
01:26:34.039 --> 01:26:37.800
<v Speaker 1>frantic on social media updating pointing out that the they're

1609
01:26:37.960 --> 01:26:42.359
<v Speaker 1>they're the juju's bouncing back because Trump's got stronger witches.

1610
01:26:43.920 --> 01:26:46.479
<v Speaker 1>Oh yeah, that was a fun story to cover right there, man.

1611
01:26:47.720 --> 01:26:49.800
<v Speaker 1>But anyway, Yeah, I don't know if I would ask

1612
01:26:49.920 --> 01:26:52.840
<v Speaker 1>chat GTP if your spouse is cheating on you by

1613
01:26:52.920 --> 01:26:57.680
<v Speaker 1>interpreting coffee grounds and then immediately go file divorce papers,

1614
01:26:58.039 --> 01:27:01.920
<v Speaker 1>which chat GTP can create for you too. So I

1615
01:27:02.000 --> 01:27:04.800
<v Speaker 1>guess a one stop destruction of the family unit.

1616
01:27:04.960 --> 01:27:05.079
<v Speaker 6>Man.

1617
01:27:06.039 --> 01:27:08.359
<v Speaker 1>But some people are really really into this stuff, So

1618
01:27:08.479 --> 01:27:10.600
<v Speaker 1>I don't know. We got raced agic round and I

1619
01:27:10.640 --> 01:27:14.000
<v Speaker 1>got some questions for that man got some questions for

1620
01:27:14.159 --> 01:27:16.119
<v Speaker 1>some very important stuff. All right, let me know when

1621
01:27:16.119 --> 01:27:19.399
<v Speaker 1>he's ready, because let's play while we wait for him.

1622
01:27:19.439 --> 01:27:22.680
<v Speaker 1>I found the old witch's audio. Fo yeah, okay, amazing

1623
01:27:22.840 --> 01:27:24.680
<v Speaker 1>is on my button bar, hanging hang on, hang out,

1624
01:27:25.720 --> 01:27:28.000
<v Speaker 1>that flipped over to something else. All right, hold on,

1625
01:27:28.199 --> 01:27:30.000
<v Speaker 1>witch audio, let's do this thing.

1626
01:27:30.159 --> 01:27:32.279
<v Speaker 12>Here we go, friends, and a special hello to all

1627
01:27:32.279 --> 01:27:34.640
<v Speaker 12>the witches out there that are doing magical work to

1628
01:27:34.720 --> 01:27:40.319
<v Speaker 12>protect protesters and you know X white supremacy. A word

1629
01:27:40.359 --> 01:27:42.640
<v Speaker 12>of warning, so I mentioned in one of my videos

1630
01:27:42.720 --> 01:27:45.319
<v Speaker 12>last night that you're kidding yourself if you don't think

1631
01:27:45.359 --> 01:27:47.760
<v Speaker 12>that the other side has people doing magical work for them,

1632
01:27:48.600 --> 01:27:50.479
<v Speaker 12>because a lot of people that have been doing spell

1633
01:27:50.520 --> 01:27:54.039
<v Speaker 12>work have felt pushback. I got my ass handed to

1634
01:27:54.199 --> 01:27:56.119
<v Speaker 12>me last night. So as you can see, all the

1635
01:27:56.199 --> 01:27:58.159
<v Speaker 12>candles are burning pretty well. Now that doesn't really have

1636
01:27:58.439 --> 01:28:00.800
<v Speaker 12>much bearing on the spell. But when I did these two,

1637
01:28:00.920 --> 01:28:03.279
<v Speaker 12>this one was for protection and then this one was

1638
01:28:03.359 --> 01:28:06.159
<v Speaker 12>for a call for change and road opening. Both of those,

1639
01:28:06.199 --> 01:28:08.079
<v Speaker 12>when I did the energy release and I lit the candle,

1640
01:28:08.119 --> 01:28:11.359
<v Speaker 12>they landed super well. But when I did this one,

1641
01:28:11.439 --> 01:28:14.359
<v Speaker 12>which is the hex for the guilty parties, it was

1642
01:28:14.520 --> 01:28:18.000
<v Speaker 12>like running headlong into a brick wall. I instantly got

1643
01:28:18.039 --> 01:28:19.840
<v Speaker 12>slapped at the migraine, and I woke up this morning

1644
01:28:19.920 --> 01:28:22.279
<v Speaker 12>feeling like I'd been hit by a car. Whoever is

1645
01:28:22.359 --> 01:28:24.079
<v Speaker 12>doing this work for the other side, it is a

1646
01:28:24.119 --> 01:28:26.720
<v Speaker 12>group of people that are very powerful, practicing magic that's

1647
01:28:26.840 --> 01:28:27.239
<v Speaker 12>very old.

1648
01:28:27.520 --> 01:28:33.399
<v Speaker 1>Be careful. Yeah, so yeah, all right, let me grab

1649
01:28:33.399 --> 01:28:39.159
<v Speaker 1>a quick call Steve. I got about a minute. What's up, hello, Steve.

1650
01:28:39.800 --> 01:28:43.119
<v Speaker 13>Race Hey, good, good afternoon or good morning fellas. Yeah,

1651
01:28:43.520 --> 01:28:46.399
<v Speaker 13>all of a sudden civilized behavior in Riley at the restaurants.

1652
01:28:47.239 --> 01:28:49.439
<v Speaker 13>They might want to adopt what I saw in Memphis

1653
01:28:49.560 --> 01:28:54.600
<v Speaker 13>at a barbecue place. Oh the wait step open carry.

1654
01:28:54.680 --> 01:28:58.079
<v Speaker 13>They had big old forty fives. I'll yeah, everybody mind

1655
01:28:58.119 --> 01:28:59.119
<v Speaker 13>their p's and ques.

1656
01:29:01.239 --> 01:29:03.239
<v Speaker 1>I bet that was some good barbecue too, wasn't it.

1657
01:29:03.600 --> 01:29:05.640
<v Speaker 13>Yeah, the barbecues overrated.

1658
01:29:06.000 --> 01:29:09.199
<v Speaker 1>Well I'm not talking about competitively, I'm talking about within

1659
01:29:09.319 --> 01:29:13.399
<v Speaker 1>the Memphis division of barbecue. If you're willing to full,

1660
01:29:13.479 --> 01:29:15.399
<v Speaker 1>if you're willing to go full militia and in your

1661
01:29:15.399 --> 01:29:17.600
<v Speaker 1>own restaurant and people are still willing to go there,

1662
01:29:17.640 --> 01:29:19.359
<v Speaker 1>you probably got some pretty good barbecue, you know what

1663
01:29:19.439 --> 01:29:19.680
<v Speaker 1>I mean.

1664
01:29:21.640 --> 01:29:24.640
<v Speaker 13>You got to fight it, to fight yeah, that's about

1665
01:29:24.640 --> 01:29:25.079
<v Speaker 13>two cents.

1666
01:29:25.319 --> 01:29:27.920
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, thanks for the call there, sir. Look, sometimes some

1667
01:29:28.039 --> 01:29:31.199
<v Speaker 1>places are a little rougher than others. All right, mister

1668
01:29:31.279 --> 01:29:34.600
<v Speaker 1>ray st agent, he knows those places. He used to so.

1669
01:29:36.840 --> 01:29:39.479
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, yeah, we know it, right, Yeah, I had some

1670
01:29:39.560 --> 01:29:40.560
<v Speaker 3>good barbecue this week.

1671
01:29:40.640 --> 01:29:43.439
<v Speaker 1>Actually, well, do you want to start a fight? Where

1672
01:29:43.479 --> 01:29:44.680
<v Speaker 1>did you have good barbecue?

1673
01:29:45.359 --> 01:29:45.399
<v Speaker 5>No?

1674
01:29:45.640 --> 01:29:47.640
<v Speaker 3>No, I don't want to start a fight smoking pig?

1675
01:29:48.479 --> 01:29:48.920
<v Speaker 1>Where is that?

1676
01:29:49.039 --> 01:29:49.479
<v Speaker 3>Pretty good?

1677
01:29:49.600 --> 01:29:53.640
<v Speaker 10>In Clemson Penalty, South Carolina, there's a fewer bustard style.

1678
01:29:54.439 --> 01:29:55.239
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, yeah, I did have.

1679
01:29:55.439 --> 01:29:57.439
<v Speaker 10>I mixed it up when with the hot and I

1680
01:29:57.479 --> 01:29:59.039
<v Speaker 10>did a little mustard style thinking of you.

1681
01:29:59.279 --> 01:30:05.600
<v Speaker 1>Right, I'm not right, bro Hey, very important, yeah, very important.

1682
01:30:06.199 --> 01:30:12.359
<v Speaker 1>Thursday PGA Championship yep. Well hollow Charlotte, Charlotte, yep. So

1683
01:30:12.680 --> 01:30:15.520
<v Speaker 1>don't stood this up for those you know in the

1684
01:30:15.640 --> 01:30:18.079
<v Speaker 1>audience or wherever they might want to go down and

1685
01:30:19.119 --> 01:30:21.560
<v Speaker 1>spend a day in one of the boxes drinking some beer. Okay,

1686
01:30:21.640 --> 01:30:22.439
<v Speaker 1>don't screw this up.

1687
01:30:22.479 --> 01:30:25.399
<v Speaker 10>B Yeah, Well, there's been a bunch of heavy rain.

1688
01:30:25.399 --> 01:30:27.359
<v Speaker 10>Didn't let anybody on the golf course yesterday.

1689
01:30:28.159 --> 01:30:28.880
<v Speaker 3>Today they will.

1690
01:30:29.079 --> 01:30:32.960
<v Speaker 10>But still showers, thundershowers scattered around. I really think later

1691
01:30:33.039 --> 01:30:35.000
<v Speaker 10>in the week, it's going to be a better fore kiss,

1692
01:30:35.000 --> 01:30:37.920
<v Speaker 10>I'm not gonna say zero chance of rain, but certainly

1693
01:30:38.000 --> 01:30:39.760
<v Speaker 10>not like we're seeing now to the east of the

1694
01:30:39.800 --> 01:30:42.359
<v Speaker 10>triangle with some heavy rain flood watch. But that's all

1695
01:30:42.399 --> 01:30:44.960
<v Speaker 10>pulling away too, So I think scattered stuff here today,

1696
01:30:45.279 --> 01:30:48.640
<v Speaker 10>temperatures mid upper seventies, Tomorrow more the same, and then

1697
01:30:48.720 --> 01:30:50.880
<v Speaker 10>Thursday Friday less if a chance of rain and temperatures

1698
01:30:50.920 --> 01:30:52.960
<v Speaker 10>go up to the mid to upper eighties. So I

1699
01:30:53.039 --> 01:30:55.720
<v Speaker 10>really think rain chance is less for Thursday, Friday and

1700
01:30:55.760 --> 01:30:58.479
<v Speaker 10>even into the upcoming weekend for golf over and Charlotte too,

1701
01:30:58.560 --> 01:31:02.720
<v Speaker 10>So it becomes the scattered stuff over the next several days.

1702
01:31:02.760 --> 01:31:04.159
<v Speaker 10>I mean, it's not gonna rain, may not get a

1703
01:31:04.199 --> 01:31:07.079
<v Speaker 10>downpour or strong storm, but I do think the trend

1704
01:31:07.119 --> 01:31:10.800
<v Speaker 10>will before less coverage, meaning like we're seeing this morning,

1705
01:31:10.880 --> 01:31:13.640
<v Speaker 10>got this big batch of rain raining for hours to

1706
01:31:13.800 --> 01:31:15.720
<v Speaker 10>our east and out near the outer banks. But I

1707
01:31:15.760 --> 01:31:18.000
<v Speaker 10>don't think we're gonna see that. It'll be more scattered

1708
01:31:18.000 --> 01:31:19.640
<v Speaker 10>stuff at the rain, it'll be over with and then

1709
01:31:19.680 --> 01:31:22.239
<v Speaker 10>you'll be able to get back outside unless it rains again.

1710
01:31:22.640 --> 01:31:22.840
<v Speaker 2>Yeah.

1711
01:31:23.000 --> 01:31:25.479
<v Speaker 1>Well, that's like I said, I'm just giving you time

1712
01:31:25.520 --> 01:31:28.000
<v Speaker 1>to work on it so now that you're yep at it, Okay,

1713
01:31:28.119 --> 01:31:31.279
<v Speaker 1>thank you, we'll do We'll come back with Jeff Bellinger decks.

1714
01:31:31.760 --> 01:31:34.960
<v Speaker 14>Bogod morning, Casey. This report, by the way, sponsored by

1715
01:31:35.039 --> 01:31:38.359
<v Speaker 14>Total Wine and more. The cost of living didn't increase

1716
01:31:38.399 --> 01:31:41.600
<v Speaker 14>as much as expected last month. The government just reported

1717
01:31:41.680 --> 01:31:45.479
<v Speaker 14>the Consumer Price Index, which tracks retail level inflation, was

1718
01:31:45.560 --> 01:31:48.880
<v Speaker 14>up two tenths percent in April. The core CPI was

1719
01:31:48.960 --> 01:31:51.840
<v Speaker 14>also up two tenths percent. That omits volatile food and

1720
01:31:52.039 --> 01:31:55.159
<v Speaker 14>energy costs. The year over year jump in the CPI

1721
01:31:55.399 --> 01:31:58.119
<v Speaker 14>was two point three percent. That was the smallest since

1722
01:31:58.199 --> 01:32:02.800
<v Speaker 14>February of twenty twenty one. Stock market futures mix this morning,

1723
01:32:02.960 --> 01:32:06.000
<v Speaker 14>S and P and n ASDAC futures modestly higher. Now

1724
01:32:06.119 --> 01:32:09.000
<v Speaker 14>futures are down one hundred and sixty four points after

1725
01:32:09.119 --> 01:32:12.119
<v Speaker 14>the big rally we saw yesterday. The nation has a

1726
01:32:12.279 --> 01:32:15.840
<v Speaker 14>severe shortage of air traffic controllers. Recruiting is tougher than

1727
01:32:15.880 --> 01:32:19.279
<v Speaker 14>it's ever been. Controllers don't need college degrees and the

1728
01:32:19.359 --> 01:32:22.119
<v Speaker 14>pay can run well into six figures, but the job

1729
01:32:22.199 --> 01:32:25.319
<v Speaker 14>is not for everyone. Only about ten percent of applicants

1730
01:32:25.319 --> 01:32:28.319
<v Speaker 14>are even accepted into the training program, and a third

1731
01:32:28.359 --> 01:32:31.079
<v Speaker 14>of those who are accepted don't make the cut. The

1732
01:32:31.159 --> 01:32:34.319
<v Speaker 14>high stressed job can lead to burnout and controllers leaving

1733
01:32:34.359 --> 01:32:37.840
<v Speaker 14>the job early add to the problem. McDonald's putting up

1734
01:32:37.840 --> 01:32:40.399
<v Speaker 14>the help wanted signs. The fast food company and its

1735
01:32:40.439 --> 01:32:44.159
<v Speaker 14>franchises looking to hire about three hundred seventy five thousand

1736
01:32:44.359 --> 01:32:48.560
<v Speaker 14>workers this summer. It is McDonald's biggest hiring spree in years.

1737
01:32:48.640 --> 01:32:52.199
<v Speaker 14>The company says these jobs being offered are not intended

1738
01:32:52.239 --> 01:32:55.880
<v Speaker 14>to be seasonal or temporary. Smartphones will be getting thinner

1739
01:32:56.079 --> 01:32:59.479
<v Speaker 14>and lighter. Samsung introduced a slim down version of the

1740
01:32:59.520 --> 01:33:02.960
<v Speaker 14>Galaxy S twenty five Edge, about thirty percent thinner and

1741
01:33:03.039 --> 01:33:06.079
<v Speaker 14>twenty five percent lighter than the S twenty five Ultra.

1742
01:33:06.560 --> 01:33:10.119
<v Speaker 14>This new device is priced at one thousand, ninety nine dollars.

1743
01:33:10.199 --> 01:33:13.000
<v Speaker 14>It will be available May thirtieth. It's going to be

1744
01:33:13.039 --> 01:33:15.039
<v Speaker 14>a few months before we see a thin version of

1745
01:33:15.079 --> 01:33:19.000
<v Speaker 14>Apple's iPhone seventeen on the market. And Case, the world's

1746
01:33:19.000 --> 01:33:22.439
<v Speaker 14>biggest cinema chain looking to fill some theater seats at midweek.

1747
01:33:22.800 --> 01:33:26.560
<v Speaker 14>AMC Entertainment will slash its movie ticket prices in half

1748
01:33:27.000 --> 01:33:29.439
<v Speaker 14>every Wednesday, and that begins July ninth.

1749
01:33:29.640 --> 01:33:33.119
<v Speaker 1>Casey Okay is that for all shows or just during

1750
01:33:33.199 --> 01:33:34.560
<v Speaker 1>the day when everyone's at work.

1751
01:33:35.119 --> 01:33:38.439
<v Speaker 14>No, I believe that is all day Wednesday.

1752
01:33:39.000 --> 01:33:40.000
<v Speaker 3>All right, well there you go.

1753

1755
01:33:45.159 --> 01:33:47.159
<v Speaker 1>I do want to see it. I love those kind

1756
01:33:47.159 --> 01:33:48.880
<v Speaker 1>of movies, so but I will, all right, all right,

1757

01:34:13.800 --> 01:34:17.960
<v Speaker 1>they have four witch shops in the triad or triangle combined?

1766
01:34:18.000 --> 01:34:18.279
<v Speaker 3>Even?

1767
01:34:20.039 --> 01:34:22.279
<v Speaker 1>I don't even I'm sure there's a witch store somewhere

1768
01:34:22.319 --> 01:34:26.079
<v Speaker 1>I just was, but four of them in Omaha, and

1769
01:34:26.199 --> 01:34:29.199
<v Speaker 1>Omaha is not nearly as large as a triad or triangle?

1770
01:34:30.600 --> 01:34:33.159
<v Speaker 1>Are there that many witches that they need? By the way,

1771
01:34:33.239 --> 01:34:34.760
<v Speaker 1>if you run a witch store and you have three

1772
01:34:34.800 --> 01:34:37.640
<v Speaker 1>other competitors, I'm assuming, I'm assuming all you're doing all

1773
01:34:37.720 --> 01:34:40.199
<v Speaker 1>day is cursing your competitors. You know you have to, Yeah,

1774
01:34:40.239 --> 01:34:41.439
<v Speaker 1>if you want to, you know, if you're a good

1775
01:34:41.479 --> 01:34:47.279
<v Speaker 1>business owner. Yeah. How'd you not pick up on the

1776
01:34:47.319 --> 01:34:50.600
<v Speaker 1>fact that chick was a witch? I didn't know. I

1777
01:34:50.680 --> 01:34:53.880
<v Speaker 1>mean was young and dumb and hey, girls, thought.

1778
01:34:53.840 --> 01:34:56.880
<v Speaker 4>Was a fellow radio person, you know, co worker. But

1779
01:34:57.119 --> 01:34:59.960
<v Speaker 4>it was very apparent upon entering their apartment. I'm like, Okay,

1780
01:35:00.039 --> 01:35:03.199
<v Speaker 4>you're insane, you're a witch, but we're here, so what

1781
01:35:03.560 --> 01:35:06.239
<v Speaker 4>does that mean? Anyway, it didn't work out because she

1782
01:35:06.439 --> 01:35:07.079
<v Speaker 4>was a witch.

1783
01:35:07.640 --> 01:35:10.159
<v Speaker 1>I'm sure, but after the breakup everything was fine, right,

1784
01:35:10.960 --> 01:35:16.520
<v Speaker 1>Maybe it broke out and boils. You didn't You didn't

1785
01:35:16.560 --> 01:35:19.760
<v Speaker 1>have like sharp pains and parts of your body over over?

1786
01:35:20.520 --> 01:35:22.520
<v Speaker 1>Why do you have a doll of it? Like there's

1787
01:35:22.640 --> 01:35:23.600
<v Speaker 1>pins going into me?

1788
01:35:24.159 --> 01:35:24.359
<v Speaker 2>Oh?

1789
01:35:24.920 --> 01:35:27.479
<v Speaker 1>I wonder if that urns doll you have with the

1790
01:35:27.600 --> 01:35:31.800
<v Speaker 1>demon voice. It's not it's not demonic. It does, but

1791
01:35:31.920 --> 01:35:35.479
<v Speaker 1>it sounds so like if he was still alive, because

1792
01:35:35.560 --> 01:35:37.760
<v Speaker 1>it maybe it's a voodoo doll. Well where did your

1793
01:35:37.800 --> 01:35:43.880
<v Speaker 1>wife acquire? What state? Uh, Louisiana? Oh wow, m do

1794
01:35:43.920 --> 01:35:46.600
<v Speaker 1>you think they have any witch or voodoo stores in Louisiana?

1795
01:35:46.720 --> 01:35:47.239
<v Speaker 1>Can we check.

1796
01:35:47.439 --> 01:35:49.479
<v Speaker 4>I'm bringing you in tomorrow just because i know I'm

1797
01:35:49.520 --> 01:35:51.079
<v Speaker 4>gonna be safe, but hopefully it'll curse you.

1798
01:35:51.880 --> 01:35:55.479
<v Speaker 1>Okay, whatever, whatever, no, no, no, no, it's what. It's

1799
01:35:55.479 --> 01:35:58.800
<v Speaker 1>immensely cool. But to the the way that the audio

1800
01:35:58.880 --> 01:36:02.239
<v Speaker 1>works now because it's sold is a little disconcerting. Ernest

1801
01:36:02.279 --> 01:36:03.760
<v Speaker 1>goes to the radio station, can't wait.
