Remember all right, morning everybody, it is six zero eight, it is Friday. Finally, Uh, you're in hell livery stage. Explain that coming up later in the show, oh man, And I know it's a product of having the last week off. Ross has this felt like the longest radio week ever? Absolutely? Okay, all right, I just want to make sure I'm not alone. And I'm sure people want to go back to the tape. We've probably said that before, but find something better to do with

your time. Proven us wrong. No, it's just been crazy and like and it was weird because there were a lot of stories. How do I say this? There are a lot of boring stories, but there wasn't a lot of fun stories this week until we got into the hobo pool yesterday. I thoroughly enjoyed that, not actually getting into the hobo pool, because I would not. I'm pretty sure that if I had to pick a body,

if those you don't know. We had a story yesterday where in Seattle, one of the homeless encampments has acquired them an above ground pool, and not like a kiddie pool, like a big, a big one big enough that it requires, you know, the big tube with the pump and everything, and as you can imagine, some of the residents adjacent to this piece of public property that has been turned into a homeless encampment with its own community pool

with a fence, which is crazy. They gotta like they have a security fence or a privacy fence or I don't even know what you want to use to describe that thing. But if I had to pick bodies or what, it's pretty much that and the Jersey Shore Hot Tub would be the two bodies of water I would least want to get in. So that was fun. I did enjoy that story, not that it happened. It's it's horrible, and it's in an indictment of everything that they're doing out on the West Coast,

and it's a tragedy. And I I really hate it too, because the Pacific Northwest in California are some of the most beautiful places in all of the United States, and they're absolutely infested with morons. But they're infested with morons who somehow elect other morons who then, you know, try to infest the rest of this country. So I don't get it. I just don't understand it, and I maybe I understand it a little in the sense that I lived out in California for a few years, and I remember, even

as a young and fresh out of high school into the collegiate ranks. I remember almost immediately and I got an understanding of how California runs elections. I'm like, this whole thing is rigged. Man, from jungle primaries which they're called out there, to ballad harvesting to all that. Like, it was just it was so weird to me, even though I wasn't, you know, at that point, doing talk radio and really diving myself into that stuff.

Even then when I was more like, hey, is there any parties on don't play it today, I was still like, man, it's messed up. So when I see those stories, I don't celebrate them in the sense that they're happening, but I like to use them as strategic examples and make jokes so sticks with people. But yeah, I don't know. Maybe that's what's drugged the week out right there. We need more of that now,

we do. I will say this, there are a couple in the staff back today, there are there are a couple in the stack today have me having me scratching my head. So we'll dive into that. Also, coming up a third hour of the show Pete Calendar or Radio Buddy to the South. You'll join us and we'll slice and dice through all of the insanity. And I'm telling you we have insanity. Daughter of Ireland or Daughter of Ireland, you can tell us a forty stuff. I'm thinking of home the

Daughter of Iceland and uh um and uh. I want to say, I think we've had a very productive summit. Ross that that audio is what fifteen and a half seconds? Right? Fifteen and a half seconds? Okay, do you have can you ready the woo? Are you ready the woo? You get your woo ready? Man? The who is always ready? All right, all right, so I just have the woo ready in fifty I

am I'm actually this is like, this is like an archeological dig. And I am astounded with the number of gaffs that one person can fit into fifteen and a half seconds. So I'm gonna start this again. If you'll woo uh at at at the gaff when you hear it um and and subsequent gaffs. Uh that would be great. All right? You ready, you're ready with your woo? All right? Here here we go, Daughter of Ireland,

Daughter of Ireland. You can tell us a forty stuff. I'm thinking of home, the daughter of Iceland and um and uh, I want to say, I think we've had a very productive summer. Yeah, you can't play the woo fast enough. I'm telling you. I just so, what countries do you hear I the read there's a reason I didn't set this up. What countries do you hear him talking about? He said too, right,

Ireland and Iceland? Okay, the one was confused because you listen, he's very well rested, rested if he skipping the NATO dinner or whatever, that very well rested, you know. So he's fine, and you know he's thinking at home because he's over there, over in Europe and Ireland, and right next to him is right there is the is the Czar of Iceland? So or or do you want to check the notes? Who? Who's he? Who's he? Who's he speaking to? Alongside? That's the Finnish

president. I'm pretty sure that it's the dwarf and King of Iceland, is it not? You know what? This is why you should have done the Lord of the Rings thing, because then you would have a comprehensive understanding of all the Hobbits and dwarfs and all that. No, that's d and his homes, not Ireland. And I look and I understand this. He's talking about ancestral home. And I even get it when you know, uh, presidents or or people for that matter, they go over to Ireland and they're

talking about their ancestral home or they're playing to the crowd. He's it's the Finnish president, it's Finland. My brain hurts. So with that context, here we go again. The menis Coz daughter of Ireland or daughter of Ireland? You can tell us a forty step. I'm thinking of home. And what's the first word he's trying to say, was it Minister, ministry minstrel? I mean, what what the hell? Then? Coz daughter of Ireland

or daughter of Ireland? You can tell us a forty step. I'm thinking of home, the daughter of Iceland and uh um, and I want to say, I think we've had a very productive summit. Listen, man, it's a minister. Okay, No, right, you're right, it's the president of Finland. You've never you've never left the country. Right, I'm not and I will not. Okay, But if I was to put a map out. All right, here's a map, standard world map, right.

People whining that it's it's like, yeah, it's not size properly, but it's the way that they you know that most just don't put a globe in front of my face. Will be fine, It'll be a flat thank you, don't worry. Um, and you an Australia on it or not? Uh yeah, sure, I'm in an ausse mood today when it all right, it's you're on team Australia is real because there's just today. Okay, all right, but we don't need Australia for this. We'll just go

Northern Hemisphere, right, keep things simple. And you have a never traveled anywhere near any of these and I have been to two of the three. I've not been to Iceland. Just not a York fan or whatever. Um, I'm sure it's amazing. I would like to go. I'm not gonna lie. If I asked you to find Ireland, Iceland and Finland, how do you think you do? I think I did pretty pretty well. Okay.

Is there anything about Ireland and Iceland that is different from Finland? Well, Finland is very like is sort of like to the east, right like way to the like. Yeah, but but is there anything distinctive that Iceland and Ireland share, because I'm gonna give them the benefit of the doubt here, is there any Is there any similarities between Iceland and Ireland? They both have the word land in them. Okay, all right, there's actually three

I can think of. All right, so that's one Iceland and Ireland. Two other similarities are very green. Yes, that is the they just need. So actually that's the fourth I was gonna go with. They're both islands, right, because you can't you know the land there. You can't be like, oh, it's shore for island. No, because Finland is not an island, but Iceland's inn island and Ireland's inn island and they both start with I. That's the extent of my benefit of the doubt this morning on

this particular topic. But I think I think, like, listen, if you're gonna get Finland confused with something, right, you could get it confused with maybe what Norway or right, Sweden? Right, yeah, all the Swedish chef countries, right, that's not what they're referred to. But okay, what he says is before because the Swedish chef in Norway is, Yeah, it is the Swedish chef. In Sweden it's known as the Norwegian chef. Yes, right, so it's like that group of countries is the Swedish

chef country. When you think of that, those are those three county that you maybe even get those confused on a map, that'd be fine. But to get Iceland and Finland confusing, what are you doing? And and people are like, wow, you know they're all part of the Baltic Alliance and shut up, shut up, what are you talking about? I this is I don't need a six year old who's doing a color by number to learn to the members of the Baltic Alliance. He's very tired. No, he's

well rusted. I read I read that. It's it's amazing. Uh, it's amazing that he's been able to put in these these all these days. Over there, he's got a stutter and he's standing there next to be York. He's very you know, it's it's a moment for him. I haven't seen the York in a while. What's she up to? Just rocking her oom out or weird bijet you know, beginning on her name. Her music's funky, man, I'll say that. I used to have a buddy who

was really into New York and I never understood it. I have no by the way, I have no beef with her. I just like that's the only thing I think some people know about Iceland is that, which is fine, and then occasionally they have volcanoes that make it really difficult to fly to Europe. But look, it's beautiful, gorgeous. What was the was it Iceland? Where they where they also were on like the cliffside greasing the puffins and everyone got upset. But it's like a thing they do there, and

you know, you get the Viking stuff there. The Finland doesn't even have the Vikings vibe to it. Ireland really doesn't England, and Ireland should England more so because the Vikings, like, hey, what's this. I'm trying to find the mental connections and instead it's hurting my brain. So with that in mind, that is your well rested representative doing whatever the hell that is

yesterday. So you're welcome for that, all right? Coming up on the show, Well here also from Lurch, mister John Kerry, Christopher Ray. Big congressional stuff going on. Yeah, it's just gonna be one of those days. So with that in mind, phone number eight eight eight nine three four seven eight seventy four hang on show. After the show is on the iHeartRadio app. Search case o day for the podcast on the iHeartRadio app.

All right, welcome back, six twenty six. And especially I'm just thinking that, especially when you're late, you're having to keep track of countries that start with the letter I. There's not even that many you have to keep track of, and they're pretty distinct actably different. I'll say that maybe Iraq and Iran. I could see people conflating that, maybe if they didn't know anything about the Middle East, because they're next to each other and they four

letters and they fought a war against each other. But other than that, I mean like Iceland is nothing like Ireland, is nothing like India. Ross's favorite country, not in America because of you know, food, Italy pretty distinctive Indonesia. Indonesia and India or two of the largest countries in the world. My brain, Jim, real quick, what's up? Thanks for taking my call. I think I can explain what's going on here with the puppet,

I mean, the president. I think he confused Greenland for Iceland and Denmark for Finland because Denmark os Finland, and I understand inability to be coherent because the Secret Service confiscated in Bolivian marking powder. Did they though? I mean they close the investigation. I don't know they confiscated anything. Uh cc man case closed. Dude. If we got to juice the guy when he's at these meetings, I'm almost fine with it. Yeah, too secret, I need a secret. I got a jim, I gotta I gotta role.

I'm just looking up at the clock, but I'm I'm okay with that. Just have some guys standing by with a draink gun, except, you know, with opposites. Ju some pepper your day Smarter one oh six one FM Talk and News Talk nine four five WPTI more with Casey starts now all right, you know what, sir, I don't think your email is on. Hey, guys, why don't you cut the presidents from slack? There's

lots of countries, especially at a meeting like that. I'm myself constantly find wait, you can't say myself twice, sir, I myself constantly find myself conflating high rule and Lord Rant. Okay, Lord R really is not confusing like the legitis Zelda with dark souls. I can't even I can't even prison. This is why prison was invented. Okay, good, I'm glad you're annoyed as well, but not for obviously, for the same reason you're annoyed

for different reason. I'm saying, listen, if I was plopped right, if whoever's running the simulation that is our universe, that's what happens to me, and one of these fictional verses, I would choose high Rule over Lord Rand because you are going to die in Lord Ran. Here we go. I don't know. I saw Lincoln go through Lord Run and no he didn't die. Well, I mean now now, I would fly through it,

you know. But I'm saying, you know, if I had never heard of them, and you're dropped into one, I would choose High Rule so much easier than Lord Ran. Are you good? Are you good? Now? I mean the odds If Lord Ran you would not know. Listen, If you listen, I'm getting pissed off. If you were plopped in the Lord Ran, you would not know to go into the catacombs to get the grave Lord's sword from a grave Lord Nido, you wouldn't you have no idea.

You wouldn't even know that you had to have like a you know, like a strength of sixteen the decks at thirteen, you would have no idea, whereas if you were plopped in a high rule you could figure it out. I just hate everything. I want to point out that I didn't even share that email with Ross at all, so that required him to instantly be able to recognize those two fictional places. Okay, so you're saying, Lord rn is Um it's tough, right, I'd say, man, just just

don't do it. It's not made for everyone. I mean personally, I get an entire thing like, you know, two hours deathless. But I mean this, I'm in the exception to the rule. I'm by his opinion. Which do you think would be a tougher put, Lord Rin, or perhaps if one was born in the town of Tristram and had adventure out through the Kingdom of ken Dars. Okay, I have no idea what that reference is away is it? Okay, we're going to nerd out what is a

more foreboding land? The land in Dark Souls or the land in Diablo. I have never played Diablo, so I don't know. I don't like the top down games. Mhm. I just think I think we should. Um. I think that would be an easy thing. We'll just throw that out and then we don't have to do anything the rest of the day. It'd be like what you were telling me that the jack Pushed blah blah blah blah blah account was doing on Twitter. It's really because the first time I saw

us post, I was like, oh, what is that about. It just said the MCU is crap all of it. I was like, that's weird because you know, I'm big into Marvel now because I'm ten years behind everybody in movies and stuff. Yes, like I recently just watched all the Marvel films, all the Avenger films and all that. Oh boy, you got dude, you're sitting down because yeah, I'm sis some news about some of the years I am prone stuff you're going to get into. Oh well,

now you know what, I'll just let you experience it. So anyway, so he posts Marvel sucks all of it, and then he just said, you know, you know ranches better than blue cheese on wings. And there's just these basic questions that you know, divide people instantaneously. You know what I mean, Like you just go down his feet. It's just hilarious.

And it just happened to be the same day where everyone's posting their checks they got from Twitter, right, because you know, you get paid now if you have a subscription signed up, and if you know, it depends on the advertising revenue that you know, people like the impressions you get in your replies. So you look at his basic posts and you can tell he's just posting things that people are going to be debating in the comments. He

doesn't really care what he's posting, really really smart. What I hate more than anything is those Krasenstein idiots who during Trump literally manipulated everything to be and then got kicked off and came back, and now they realize that they control themselves. Not to mention them, Like did you ever read the story and

the Daily beasted on those two with like the pyramid schemes and stuff. Yeah, I saw I take down of how they came out, came about, and you know, yeah even getting there the accounts they of now like they start off with like two hundred thousand followers or something, and when you first see them, you come across them, you're like, oh, this person must have been on Twitter forever and they're very popular and they have all engagement

because they buy those accounts from other accounts, like one of them right his account the Krazenscene right now or where Brazen see whatever the name is, Yeah, they're going with now. Was was like a Justin Bieber fan account or something, right, but now they just all they do is go on and they make the really softest draw man political arguments to incite Republicans on there,

and it's like, you know what I like in it too? I like in it to those uh you ever see those pop up ads or those sidebar ads where they're like who do you think should who do you think should be Donald Trump's running mate? And then they put like two really obviously stupid choices in there and there's nothing to and then people click and it's about getting your

to vote. You have to like submit your email address or other information and it's just data farming, right, And I'm like, who's doing this? Or like call this eight hundred number and tell us if you think do you think that Joe Biden should be impeached? Right? And then people click that crap and then they get their email address out there and then they sell that information. And that is what the Krasenstein accounts would be are currently and they

must get massive engagement. It's an annoying Yeah, you go into their plies and it just goes on for days because it's not complex, well thought out arguments. It's it's just real surface level garbage. It reminds me of like when I did in Top forty. Right, you had to go on every night and do a show, and you would have to come up with content that would drive your phones, but like not like an intellectual kind like very basic stuff, like you would just go on and be like, so it's

my buddy today. And he was mentioned in how if you have a tattoo, you'd probably been in prison, And I think he's right, And you don't really mean anything you say and it's all fluff and it's all garbage. But you're just saying stuff to get a reaction in the phones. And you probably didn't say pick it up. You probably saw it on one of the like the complete sheet right right, Well, no, no in the day would like intellectually back in the day, I would make it all up.

But it's like that's all you would do you'd sit back at home and be like, what can I say that? Obviously it is ridiculous, but you can sell it as you believe it, so you can divide people. It's just low bra. Look. Yeah, we could come on the radio every morning and we're we could be like, do you think boarded baby should have guns? Right? Right? Right? Yeah? I mean just boom, there you go with that. Just sit this this joke Jack Passo from yesterday.

I say Passo because it's a breve and hisscount. I don't know how to pronounce his actual name. Yeah, here's Solo was better than Rogue one. The next post, The Beasties are far superior to the Beach Boys. Uh wah wah is the best and greatest convenience store in America. Uh, the mcgribb is overrated. What kind of wings should I get after the show to dip in my ranch sauce? Uh? Pineapple is amazing on pizza? Right? Oh? No, John Wick would be better without that Keanu guy.

Like, it's all basic stuff just to get people talking that you know, you don't real look to put any thought into so anyway, Lord Ring and High Rule are so similar people conflate them listen, you're you're an awful person. Oh I rain, but they're getting paid and everyone was posting all that stuff all over Twitter. You say, I found it a little annoying, but not for the reason people were thinking, like, ah, they're just showing off all that. And then on the other side, it's like

they're all working with Elon. It's a conspiracy, right, because they all posted their payments at the same time, and it was only that's a conspiracy. It was a certain group of people that Elon picked out that he was going to pay. And then there's other people who have big, bigger accounts that were not paid, and they're like, well, this is unfair. There's no reason. How come I wasn't paid. It didn't even sign up

right, right, and but it's been online for months. How to do this he announced it in February. You have to have a subscription account to that, you have to get approved, and you have to have like five million impressions over x amount of time, which is a crapload of impressions. Right, what do we have on the show account? Nowhere near that. Just to make a dollar, okay, on Twitter, you need to have at least forty six thousand impressions forty six thousand impressions equals one buck? Do

we have? Do we have that? Maybe? But but but you still have to be approved for a subscription. You have to have an x amount of followers, and then on top of that, you can't be a parody of fictional account and leave it says right there. If you keep digging through the rules, it's like, you can't be a parody account, and you can't be like a fake animal account. So you can't have like a profile picture of an animal and be like, hey, I'm a cat or something.

You can't you can't do it, or a rabbit. It's not gonna happen. Would you be a person purporting to run for, like, I don't know, a law enforcement elected office, but not actually doing that, or probably I would guess yeah, I mean actually got votes and elections. I mean, I haven't looked into this, but I'm gonna I'm gonna go with yeah. My gut tells me yes, that would be approved. Do

you think that would be okay? Right there? Huh? Even if they got votes for like Soil and Water Supervisor, I mean I think that shows their power they should be expanded. Uh, I'm on team high rule. I'm you've convinced me, so, I mean, just if I got a pick. So there you go. All right, that's just everything. It's just been one of those weeks, man, and just little things keep popping up, including you're ready for this headline from w r L. We'll get

into this story. North Carolina lawmakers seek to restrict miners mental health rights. They added the word privacy, privacy rights. Excuse me? Is that? What there is? That? What there is that? What they're trying to do? Or are they trying to I don't know. Maybe if maybe if they're kids a school shooter, maybe in the school, say hey, I think your kids a school shooter, maybe you should tell the parents or has the potential for it. I'm not making light of the mental health that goes

with this. I find it astounding. I find it astounding how many times we've talked about mental health surrounding things like school shootings, and there is even a debate to try to restrict the amount of adults that are around these kids from being able to potentially intervene. It's like you're actively working. It's like that voting. Do you see the vote in California the other day where they're like, hey, do you know what, should we make child sex trafficking

an upper level felony? And they voted no. They voted no. And in fact, there's some I saw some moonbat Democrat California Assembly members actually came on They're like, I changed my mind. I think we should now because people were so horrified by like, well wait, hold on, so you're not thinking it's a serious crime to sexually trafficked children, what the f is

going on? Well? Here, every time I see something like this where if you're dealing with the potential for mental health issues or god knows what to start leaving adults that are literally the most important people in these kids' lives out

of conversations about that is mind boggling to me. And for those of you going, well, you're conflating trans issues with actual mental health issues, well, you know what, I'll we'll just put that debate to the side, because again, the suicide rate tells me that maybe there is a connection there. Little bit we put that aside. That's that's not even what they're beefing about. In this ral article. They are talking not even just about they're

talking about the real deal. I want to murder everybody kind of stuff. It's crazy. I'll give you the details on this story. This is what the the legislatures working on. And you know here, who does fast Car better? Tracy Chapman or Luke Combs. And before you answer that, think about it, because you might be a big fat racist. I'll give it the details on that coming up, thank you. Casey is on WPTI in the Triad and one oh six one FM Talk in the Triangle, all right,

six fifty four here on the k c O Day radio program. So yeah, of course this is Washington Post. And of course there's also something that's being left out here which I'm I'm I am one hundred percent sure that they're aware of, and yet they didn't include it. So for those of you who, whether you're a country music fan or not, I'm sure you're familiar with the song fast Car. Why because back in nineteen eighty eight he

pulled it up here. Back in nineteen eighty eight, Tracy Chapman, who is a black, gay female, and I'm only pointing this out because it's going to be necessary for this article, released that album and fast Car was everywhere. I remember that song everywhere, everywhere, and yeah, and you know, it never peaked at number one, was never a number one song. Number six, I believe is the highest it rose. But it stayed in the top hundred for a very long time and was obviously put Tracy Chapman

really on the map for a lot of people. Well, fast forward and now country music star North Carolina's Luke Combs. He's got a new album out for his newest album, and on it he doesn't cover a fast Car. And even though that wasn't even the song that his record company was pushing to the country stations, people liked it and we talked about it on the show because there's a lot of younger folks who are like, that's a great new original song, which is sometimes what happens with covers. And it rose.

It rose. In fact, it actually peaked higher on the Hot one hundred, which is all genres above where let's see here, Pete, where it peaked at number two on the Hot one hundred. It's like too many listens, right. The point is it did very, very very well, So of course the Washington Post has to write an article about why are there not

more black queer This is their lie black queer country artists. All right, well, I don't know if you mean the totality of like together where it's one, you know, LGBT and black, but there are both and especially because they lean into the race angle here, how do you not know anything about country music? You know, they're acting like it's only now, acts like little nas acts, are you know, making waves? I'm sorry, have you heard of Darius Rucker? Are you familiar? Or I don't know?

Charlie Pride or in this is everybody sitting down ross he's sitting down. There's a guy named may have heard of him, Ray Charles, who's like etho, I'm gonna put a country music album out, and he did and it went number one and he was kind of popular. I see to remember

that Ray Charles guy kind of popular. It's just the totality, the stupid now here's what they left out because because they're kind of doing this thing where now you have this you have assists, white male who's stealing really a kind of I mean, that's what they're intimating here, And this is the part that they left out. Who do you think is getting paid for that song? Explain to you how music works who do you think's getting paid for that

song? It ain't Luke Combs, not not. When you get into the residuals and the moneies that are paid as part of licensing fees, that's going to Tracy Chapman, because Tracy Chapman is the listed writer of that song. Because that's how that works. So when one artist covers another artist, the artist getting covered is the one who gets the checks. All right, there's more on this in your phone calls coming up, So hang out all right, Jack Harding, everybody you do seven h seven to here on the k

c O Day radio program. So we got a few things going on this morning. For some reason, now people are emailing me and telling me which fictional video game land that they want to live in or don't want to live in. It's a self inflicted wound for reading some guy email. But also I don't think you guys are thinking this stuff through. You do not want to live in Tamariel? Okay, don we agree with that? Ross do you want to live in Tamariel? I had to look up which one that

was. That's from Elder Scrolls. I don't want to live there. Most video game fictional lands are not places you'd probably want to hang. I would have no issue with that because I have the modsocked up, so I would have modern firearms which I recently had played through at home, and it was so easy. Do you want to live in Vice City? Vice City would be cool? San Angelos? Is that? What the that was the one from five? Right? Los Antos? Los Santos? I'm sorry, yes,

do you want to live in Los Santos? Seems a little lawless? Actually seems perfectly like La exactly. So, no Ah, what's the what's the main town in Red Dead? Uh? Basically New Orleans? Um? Saint Denny? Yeah, you want to live in St. Dena. No, man, it's impossible to walk down the street. Man, there's some dat horse keeps coming through. They're murdering every possible he's wanted. I hear. Actually there's a reward. God, it's hard not to commit a crime

at Saint Denny. You're just trying to go through the street to go to the tail or. Just like before you know it, you ran over a woman with your horse, and the whole town's coming after you. And then you got to kill the horse, right because it's a witness and you actually throw a fire bottle in the in the train car, and yeah, it was like burning guys' whole farms down. Anything, right, So if you want to live outside of the city and farm, I'm sure nothing bad would

happen to your entire farm, would it? Or your crops? I'd probably be okay. And I believe it's within what about a minute that you're attacked by wolves in that game, depends where you are. It can't happen, yes, but like the opening, right, that's the opening, Yeah yeah, right in the snow. Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, so immediately upon getting to this fictional land of wolves attack you, which would be given me flashbacks from home. So yeah, I don't think you guys thought this

out. Most video game mystical lands are not places you'd want to live. Maybe the the Harry Potter Land whatever thing. Maybe I don't know, but so we wrote Mushroom king You don't want to live, dude, seriously think about think about actually living in the Mushroom Kingdom. You're like, ah, there's money everywhere. I could do a hallucinogenics. I know that that sounds good, but there's also dinosaurs trying to murder you a lot and turtles and

all sorts of stuff. Right, most people can't deal with a turtle coming out to murder you. Plus, now you're on hallucinogenics. You got a bunch of you got a bunch of change in your pocket weighing you down. You think that's gonna go? How you think it's gonna go? And you got to spend a bunch of time in the sewers. Think this through, people before think before you click send? Okay, Ross, is there any video game land you would want to live in? I don't know. They're

all pretty horrible, aren't they. I mean, because that's the whole point of it. That's the whole point of it. Even if you pick like missed, because you're on an island and nobody's there to bug you. Still, anytime you want to do something, you gotta like it takes you two hours to figure out how to make coffee because you gotta you know, you gotta solve the you know, the the seventeen puzzles. You're not thinking this through, So we got that. Also, the Washington Post is it wants

to remind you because nobody can just be happy. They want to remind you that. To Luke, Combs stole Tracy Chapman's song. You have to go literally to the end of the story where they even mentioned that Chapman would receive any money, which you know, frankly, once you've laid all that case out, I don't know anyone's ringing going down on that. And they don't even actually say how much. They're just estimating that Combs has made a half

million dollars off that song. But that's how that's how music licensing works. And they have to be very careful too, because they want to purport they want to they want to make it sound like there's no black country artists, which is insane. There are famous country music artist crossover artists, but are there more white country artists? Absolutely? Is that because black musicians who tried

to do country music were thrown out? Sure, at one time, you know, when when Ray Charles was doing his stuff and he decided it was gonna do a country album, you still had segregated music venues. It's portrayed in his biopic, you had it referred to as ums. The term I guess back then it's a very specific music term. But but but my point is yes, and yet he peaked the number one country album. You know why, because the fans wanted country music and he got it. He got

it for him. Darius Rucker was successful, Charlie Pride was successful, and there have been many artists who have released onto country charts music including and this is where they have to get cute in this where they have to go. You know, Chapman is the first female black woman to ever have a solo writing credit on a number one country song. Obviously Combs was the one who took it to number one, but the reason they have to write that is

because other black women have held the number one country music spot. Did you know that Tina Turner did it? I think she did it twice. So it's it's you know what it's like. It's like when I when I hear these arguments in professional sports where they're like, you know, we took a look at hockey and there's not enough Latin players in there. Why is there not diversity? Do you think it's do you do you think there's not diversity with Latin hockey players? Or in baseball? They say, well, why

is there not? The why is the percentage of black baseball players not what it used to be? Is it because you think those teams literally wouldn't sign the people who were that good to play for them. You think some guy who's who's uh, you know, who's got a one one er throws it one hundred and one miles an hour and has a four pitch, you know, four pitches to choose from. Do you think that teams wouldn't hire them because they're not the right color, or do you think that they would be

beating the crap out of each other together that guy on the roster. I mean, the fact is, if you want to work or be within a particular industry and branch of that industry, you have to go after it. So while you could you could sit there and encourage black artist to release country music, and it has to be you know, there's the intricacies of marketing it because sometimes stuff just catches fire and it ends up on the charts,

but other times it has to be really kind of coordinated. Little Nasax recording with Billy Ray Cyrus was coordinated and it worked for him. But a lot of time too, you have a choice where you want to go, right, if you're a good musician, you're a good musician. Going back to the sports thing, Yeah, odds are right. If you're playing high school football and you're really good, you probably on another varsity team too. That's very common. Yeah, it doesn't matter what your race is. Josh Allen

played basketball, do you know what I mean? So it's Kyler Murray play had a choice between what football and baseball. He chose football. So a lot of these players left NC stayed over this. A lot of players are going to choose either the NFL or the NBA over baseball. Yeah, it's just more popular. Well, it's also and it's more promit it's but it's more immediately profitable. And and I don't care what race you are, background anything. When you're twenty year old kid and you're like, can I I

could make millions next year or in five years? What's your brain telling you? Because you're twenty and you're just like I want a nice car, and you know, chicks, and so you what you have to do if you're gonna write these articles other than to bemoan this. And also in in the

one article, dang it. In the one article, um, one of the people, they don't really even identify who all the people are they're quoting in this Washington post article, like one of the people in there is is really racist against white artists because their whole beef is that all of basically popular music all springs from a black artist. It's the Elvis Pressley argument, right.

So you know, if you if you want to make the argument that hound Dog was Elvis Pressley lifting the words of a black artist, you would be accurate. You would be accurate there. That being said, this goes a step further in the sense that they're intimating that just music, any sort of music, is something that is purely black, and that's just not the case. Everybody puts their own stamp, their own twist on it, you know, the it's the it's the rock and roll is just stolen black music.

I reject that. Elements of it are and I don't use the word stolen. Are are definitely of that genre. But to sit there and look at what rock and roll became, and you know, all of the different aspects of it, it's ever evolving and changing, and you know when they talk about it, well, it's the absurdity of people coming in there. Well, I would look to one of the most profitable genres of music right

now, R and B hip hop, rap. When you get over into that category, remember how crazy it was to have a white artist in there and to be taken sure, I'm not talking like snow okay, you know informer, but that was a novelty there, and it was a novelty. And because you had artists who didn't, you know, didn't necessarily pursue that path, who were of a particular skin color. Do you think it was because they were all big fat racist. I don't know the answer to that.

I'm just pointing out that, you know, this, this pendulum swings all over the place. Eminem obviously gained a lot of popularity and was promoted from within by some of the biggest people within the industry. Remember the first time you heard about a white rapper, Eminem, and he went, oh, okay, well, look, some people in the world of country music heard that, maybe back in the day, but as somebody who grew up whose first music really was country music, because you know, it's just wyoming.

Literally the only stations we could get we're all country at one point, and I worked at a country station when I was in high school. I was very much aware of black country music artists that we play, especially like Charlie Pride and even the Ray Charles stuff, but also some of the smaller artists that would travel and do the various rodeo circuits in and around Wyoming, Montana, the various festivals. Maybe that didn't get that big. Those things

all existed. So if you want to have a fun conversation about this that doesn't evolve into where Washington Post is going. Where it's just it's just sis White guys. Here we go. There's one line, as Combs cover stays glued near the peak of the Billboard Hot one hundred, there's hope in Nashville that this adds to the discourse of the urgency of change in country music. Oh, country music has changed, and in my opinion, not for the

better. That's but again that's my personal opinion. Give me the country music of the Chattahoochee days, okay, that was far better to me and more fun. And maybe it has to do with my station in life at that point. I just think the songs were more fun, I think, And don't get me wrong, I think Luke Colmbs is extremely talented and I do like his song and I think that there is a revitalization of some of the things I loved about country music back then, but we went through a real

weepy woos period of country music. In my personal opinion, I think you would be easier these days for a different race to be successful in country music because country music isn't what it used to be, right. It's not Johnny Cash anymore. It's not that traditional sound. A given example, there's that song what is some Marin? What is her name? More the Bones? That song it was like country music song May Morris. I heard that song on music stations driving to and from work for like over a year. I

had no idea that was a country song. I had no idea she was white. I had no idea. I thought it was a pop song and I thought she was black. I had no idea. And when I found out, when I saw her and I was like, that was a country music song of the year, I'm like, dude, what has happened to country music? Right? So if you're gonna make the arts, yeah, it has. But it's a good song. It's still it's a great song, right, and deserve it one awards because it's great. But it was

on the radio forever. But I'm saying it's much easier than these days to be successful in country music because it is not what it used to be. But it is not that traditional sound. I only have a little less than a minute when you hear the term alternative rock, because you're the same age as me. In your head, what do you think? I think like Nervne Day, Green Day. I think, yeah, it's Stone Temple, Pilots, Pearl Jam. Yeah. Yeah, I know where you're going with

this, have you? I know it's awful. I can tell you what happened, so I know exactly where you're going with this. So have you clicked out the all rock Well? No, well no, I mean because now that's classic rock too, right, Oh my brain, I remember it was gotten. This was like five years ago, the most emo, whiny right garbage? Yeah, just can't. Yeah, you think of flannel, We think of flannel in the Seattle, Yes, yes, yes, Oh

that that's debilitating the weak. You're walking down the halls of the radio station here and you get the classic rock station and they're playing Nirvana and you're like, why am so old? Oh? All right, we'll hold on ross and I are gonna go age. We gotta take a break, We'll come back older than ever before. Next hang on, all right, back in just a few long segments there we'll age more smart talk all day four five w PTI in the Triad and one oh six one FM Talk in the Triangle.

All right, good morning, It is seven thirty five here on the k c O Day radio program. Crazy story out of Detroit Detroit Police commissioner. Have you heard this story? Oh? Allow me. And they have more than one. They have a board of commissioners. So what are there's seven of them? Seven of them? All right, So one of the Detroit Police Board of commissioners has resigned after a little incident on Wednesday. So on Wednesday, at seven fifteen in the morning, some of some undercover or

unmarked officers or observing an area that is known for drugs and prostitutes. All right, so you know, standard police work kind of stuff there, and they see they see a vehicle a rocking, and they were apparently had not learned the rule of the vehicle's a rocking, don't come a knocking. Then they came a knocking, and inside they found Brian Ferguson, the commissioner Ferguson, going at it with a purveyor of the world's oldest profession according to officers.

When um, they opened the truck door. He was in a pickup truck. UM. He initially asked the officers if they could quote help him out, which, by the way, they don't clarify here hold on, so he says, can you help me out? He then explained his POSI, Well, that doesn't clarify. Did he help me out or hey, help me out? I will need some clarity on that. Um, But yeah, they didn't, and they obviously busted him for that. He says. Now here is here is what he says happened. It was seven fifteen

seven, you know, in the morning. He was driving. He pulled over, you know, do something on his phone or whatever. And and by the way, tail as old as time. He said that when he when he stopped, a woman who he didn't know, hopped into his truck and quote just pulled right up on me. If you catch him a drift. So this chick's a ninja, I guess he's a ninja. He was just he's just mining his own business. Ross You ever sat in your car, uh, you know, uh, you're not going anywhere. You're just

really quick. You send a text to the wife or whatever, maybe asking hey, what do you want it? You're in the parking lot at the story, Hey, what do you want to want to go inside? Have you ever done that? Yeah? Of course I have. Yeah. And how out of every ten times you die, how many times has a ninja prostitute just boom and then and then that happened? Maybe like half the time? I mean, it's taken me. I'll have to try to count my head. So yeah, maybe you get back to me in like an hour.

Gonna, I gotta, I'll write it down. Okay, all right, well you know what, let me let me limit it just to twenty twenty three? Okay, how many times have you just been sitting there, minding your own business in your vehicle and Ninja tute jumps into your vehicle and before you ninja yeah, before you know it, you're you know, uh, the beast with two backs? Right, just twenty twenty three. It just give me a rough estimate. I mean I could check, really none,

it's never happened. Actually wow. Unfortunately. Also, look, I think they're I think they're intimidated. You think that's what it is. Well, this guy he's got he's got a badge. And a gun man did a pick up up truck. Right, it looks like a bigger dude too. I mean he could be intimidating, but Ninja Tute didn't care hopped into action. He's just mind his own business, didn't know what was going on. Man. And the fact that Ninja Tute did this on a police officers,

I mean, really that the amount of stones that that takes. Now, also this, I've never been a prostitute. If you go through my if you look at my resume, I've not isn't isn't part of that? Isn't that a financial transaction? And with most financial transactions in the world, oh business, you have a consumer and then you have the supplier, right, but it's known like if I go into Papa John's, right, and I want to get a pizza, They're generally they're going to indicate to me,

this pizza costs this much. Do you want the pizza? And then I have to decide, as the consumer, why yes, I do want the pizza, and I want two of the garlic dipping sauce, not one. Don't short me, and and then the transaction commences. I feel like

it would be bad prostitution business. If you don't make that clear prior to rendering services, like I feel like it would lead to problems after services were rendered, because they might be in a position to go, well, wait to say, you didn't say that you had to have you want it money. So I don't know. There's a couple questions I have about this man's story of the the ninja tute that jumped him while he was reading his Bible app on his phone or whatever. It's just I don't know that it's making

a lot of sense. He was issued a misdemeanor citation for indecent or obscene conduct involving a sex act with a prostitute and has announced he is resigning, saying, quote, this is rough. This is rough to tell because now I'm going to have to have this conversation with my family. Yep, yeah, ye are hey. Another question? Oh okay, sor raised calling it m Ross. I'm not married. You are. Let's say, and I'm glad that you've never been accosted by a ninja tute, but let's say that

that did happen to you. How do you think that conversation with his family's gonna go. Do you think that maybe his wife's gonna buy that? Or do you think perhaps she might have some questions? I mean, it depends on the individual. She really dumb, like how dumb, like super dumb. Uh. I'm gonna I'm gonna, you know, I just have to average. I'm gonna. I'm gonna say maybe not. She married a guy who's obviously was successful, and it's it's proba, it's probably not gonna go

well for him. Oh you don't feel it's gonna go well, but watch out. I'm just for everyone out there driving around today. If you stop, you know, pull over the side of the road, send a text message, make a phone call or whatever. You try to be responsible, right, You don't want to text and drive. You don't want to be that person at any point for you know it Boom, ninja tude and you're done. You gotta resign. Probably you're not gonna go well with your family.

Dangerous times, Folk, Dangerous times alright. Seven forty four Race a race agent from the Weather Channel. He's joining us. Now, Yo, what's going on? Mister? Let's just roast people's brains. I saw an article yesterday where they were like, if the power fails in these six states, everyone dies. So yeah, the media is handling everything very well. So yeah, and you know, I didn't believe what I heard or somebody told me. Actually our friend Mark out Nashville, he was talking about these

midden upper ninety degree water temperatures. Yeah, and I don't believe them. And it's true. There is some record warm Atlantic water. South Florida is a step is what I was hearing a friend who lives down there. Yeah. Yeah, it can't even go in the water. Yeah, I mean it's you're talking seven ninety eight degree water temperatures. I mean that's hotter in some cases than the air temperature. Amazing amount of heat. And I was

a little shock too. I didn't believe them until I did a little research. I was like, holy cow, Now I don't know what this is going to mean if we get anything trying to develop tropically this hurricane season over that type of warm water. It's only one ingredient warm ocean water greater than eighty degrees. But we'll see. So that's all going on, and we've got our own set of problems here, especially in through Chatham County. Flash

flooding has been going on. Several feet of water over the road or intersection Chatham Church Road and Johnny Shaw Road. That road impassable this morning, and

there are other roads that are impassable with water covered roadways. With this batch of heavy rainfall coming through through Raleigh in Wake County, most of it's over with, but if you get from let's say eastern Harnett and through central and eastern Johnston Wilson County and in through Edgecomb getting hammered eastern Nash County, you're going east, you're going to run into it. If you're in it and still going east, maybe and get away from them to be prepared. There's

flood advisors. There's a flood watch through this evening. More rounds of showers and thunderstorms, and you know, let's hope that people are taking caution and not crossing water covered roadways. There's thundered, there's lightning. Some of these storms could reproducing dusty winds. But the rain is here and there's flash flooding causing big problems for some of this morning. And that rain thunderstorm action continues

to push east. So if you are in your Rocky Mountain and down your Wilson and heading on eventually into Fayetteville, here over the next few hours down your Smithfield in Johnston County down to Harnette County. These are the areas and then points east to that that are getting the heavy rain and the thunderstorms with the gusty winds and other bats coming through the triad, not as intense, but it looks like to come right over the same areas that got hit earlier

this morning. So we may see more flooding as we head on through this morning, and then more rounds of showers and thunderstorms accepted in and how to get off again maybe through the weekend warm, sticky case temperatures probably staying a minted up or eighties and to get rain. And then next week we have some drier air come in, but it's gonna get hot and it's gonna stay humid. Could see some mid nineties early in the middle part of next week.

It's almost as if you're further east in the river basins you're in North Carolina, you need to be more alert. Yeah, fairly, I mean, yeah, we're talking about a rainfall that's coming down hard and quick, flooding of rivers, creek streams, low lying and floodlone, flood plone, he tried to say, areas, some of these spots two to four inches of rain over the last hour or two. And luckily it's moving, but

it's not moving real quick, but it is moving. But this next batch coming in just to heads up the areas that have already gotten hit could see more flooding either get a little worse or to continue here this morning. And as i'd mentioned, dangerous situation right now. And if we throw more thunderstorms at heavy rain on top of these areas this afternoon and the sweet and I think flash flooding is going to be a large thread, or at least the

greatest of the threats. And then you get into severe with wind and small hail and then tertiary down there, maybe maybe having a small risk of a tornado. But they'll be dry periods in between. But you know, just be on your guard all weekend too, because it's gonna be hot. People are gonna want to get out onto the lakes and out into the pools. You hear thunder and get indoors and do not cross water covered growth base alrighty unless you do it really really fast, right and you skip yeah, unless

you have a boat. Right, Oh, Okay, all right. Oh, mister, mister rich guy with his boat. All right, I said, unless you have one. Oh, okay, all right, I have a good one. We'll talk in an hour, sir, sounds good. All right, there you go, Racet agent from the Weather Channel. We'll come back. Grab a call or two. Reminder. Pete Calendar joins us at eight o five, and boy, we got a lot of ground to cover coming up here. On the case O Day Radio program one O six

one f M w PTI, two stations driving the best in talk. This is Casey O Day and Carolina's Morning News. I don't know if you saw it yesterday after he got done, um well doing whatever the heck? This is the Daughter of Ireland or Daughter of Ireland. You can tell us of forty stuff. I'm thinking of home, the daughter of Iceland and uh um and uh. I want to say, I think we've had a very productive summit. Joe Biden then went to Border Air Force one and had another little

whoopsie do on the stairs. You know what I'm thinking? They need you know that that commercially you see on TV where um where they put the little motorized chair on the stairwell of your home, right, Kimmer that what the actual brand is on that. But you know what I'm talking about. So it's the come in and you'll see this where people have end up, you know, later in life with mobility issues, but they don't want to leave

their two story home. Got a little chair there. Man kind of rides up the side of the rail and boom, now you're on that other floor. We gotta get one, I think for the stairs man, the Air Force one. I'm getting concerned not going well. Speaking of jets, John Kerry yesterday he's in front of a congressional committee and you know, he's very upset because all of you keep saying that he's got a private jet. He didn't have a private jet. You're all a bunch of liars. That is

an actual statement that he made. The problem was, well, let's dive into the follow up. I just don't agree with your facts, which began with the presentation of one of the most outrageously persistent lies that I hear, which is this private jet. We don't own a private jet. I don't own a private jet. I personally have never owned a private jet. And obviously it's pretty stupid to talk about coming in a private jet from the State Department up here, just honestly, if that's where you want to go,

go there. So you didn't then have a private doesn't have a Yaudi except he has a yet. Um, so yeah, never owned private jet, doesn't doesn't doesn't know what the hell you're talking about. So, man, I feel bad because I've said that before, because you know, I saw a picture of him on his private jet or getting ready to get on it. Um. But maybe we were up. Maybe it was a deep fake.

Was that it was? It a deep fake? Well, let's listen to some of the follow up because there's a little more to the story that the John Kerry family private jet was sold shortly after accusations of climate hypocrisy. Mister secretary, do you stand by that testimony that you've never owned or personal family personally? Yes, my wife owned a plane and the people well, oh wait, hold on, but it's your wife owned a private jet. I'm not sure how this works. When you're married and you own stuff and

your wife ohone stuff and it's stuff you acquired literally during your marriage. Isn't that your stuff too, especially if you I don't know, fly on it. Uh not in a number of years and that I have flown on it, and this article is not then inaccurate that your family owned a plane. I do not fly on a private jet. I do I do not fly I fly commercially. I mean, all of you taken this position. Just

just let me love this finish. I have flown five times in the last two and a half years on mill Air, which you will also fly on, and or some of you who travel fly on five times. Otherwise, all of my trips are commercial. Your clone on a private jet in a personal or official capacity, since you've taken this position possibly once. Yeah, well so, yeah, so that went. He was not pleased with that whole line of questioning, probably because he he knows exactly what he's saying and

he knows it's bs. But it was it was fun to watch Lurch squirm just a little bit. So now if you want a private jet and you have the Lizard people lady on your jet, now that could be interesting. By the way, why does everyone keep trying to find her? Is she wanted for Is she's not wanted for anything? Why are people wanting to find her? This is what I don't understand. And I saw some people accusing her of being the lizard person, and it was Projection Ross who he thinks

the lizard person here? One of them are both or none of them. I think there's a possibility she is the lizard person. If we don't find her, I think what I'm willing to do is I'm willing to bind her and give her an inspection right, right for the safety of the children. Right, the safety of the kids children? What other motivation? Man? All right, good morning everybody. It is eight o seven here on the k c O Day radio PROGRAMM glad to have you long. You made it

through the week almost you gotta gi a Friday. But you're only I'm putting in the effort. It's okay. But as we do, we welcome in our radio buddy from WBD down a Charlotte days noon to three. Can hear it be the iHeart radio app Pete Calendar? What's going on, dude, dah not a whole lot. Can't believe you got away with that cocaine thing.

Awesome, I know it, Yeah for you? Yeah, So I think the what do we learn that the the same what video monitoring security company not only has the contract at the White House, but also I guess it's the same one from that prison where Etein was. They they're all about creating like blind spots and gaps to allow people a little bit of privacy. It seems like, well, you know, that's what when you contract Jepstein's security service, this is what you get, man, So right out there.

Well and on a serious note though, like the the idea that this area and I don't I guess these are I heard him referred to as cubbies, but it sounds more like a locker system with keys and such, and so the baggy of the coke was found in a locker, but the key is missing, and the area is near the situation room where they bring people, right, it's probably a construction workers what was implied, which is of course spot on character wise, to blame it on some poor guy who's just slinging

a hammer, right, yeah, yeah, yeah, so yes, naturally of course you find some uh you know, some you know, uh, some construction worker guy who's not white collar, blue collar guy to blame it on shore. But this is an area that is near the situation room that the public goes through and has to drop off their their phones in when they're

on tours. And I don't know. I just I guess I assumes that when you walk in off the street and you're going to get a tour of the White House, that there would be a better security system in place that would monitor you and I don't know, prevent you from but you drop it off a phone next to the situation room that could potentially be a bomb. Have you been to the White House? You ever been to the White House?

No, I've never been to the White House. Oh I have now, I Now there's a little disconnect, because actually it was it's even more stringent for when a handful of dumbass radio hosts get invited to go over there and presidents not even there, but you get to shake hands with a couple of guys from the administration. But it was interesting to really get a lowdown talking to who did I was talking to Mark Walker about this. I'm sure you want to talk about campaign stuff, and I'm like, no, I

gotta get him on this. So and the way he's describing it, there's a thought that popped into my head, and I want to run it by you. I was. I was terrified in going through every piece of clothing I was wearing, and my small little equipment bag that I had, because you know, you don't want to, like did I at one time in that little bag that I carry my glock to go to the range into a

bullet roll out? So I was so extra careful. So if you're somebody who doesn't come into the White House very often, say I don't know some guy who's a construction worker, Right, you're going the idea that you would blatantly walk in with something like that. I have a hard time wrapping my

head around. I have an easier time assuming if you're somebody who has pretty easy access to the White House because you work there, or maybe you're related to somebody there and your comings and goings are slightly easier, right, Well, that that would be the attitude you would have to have to go, Hey, I should be able to bring this in. And I think some of it. You saw what Lauren Bobert was talking about yesterday with the two

marijuana things, and so for people don't know. And Washington, DC, and I don't know how long it's been, but when I did my radio row there last year, it was like this. The Washington DC has dispensaries everywhere and like uber uber eats for marijuana edibles. Right, that's that is DC right now, they don't enforce any of those uh, any of those

laws, even though it literally is in the federals federal jurisdiction um. And in that instance, you had staff members who had some of these things that look like you know, kids candy or whatever, you know, probably in their purse or in their in their backpack or whatever, and brought it in And so you have this quasi legality thing. And I could see the oversight

there, but it requires comfort, do you know what I'm saying. They were comfortable in their day to day to not thoroughly inspect everything they're doing. So when you get to the cocaine stuff, that's that's a step up man. And right it's not a casual yeah, right, that's not a casual user that would forget that they've got it on them when they go to the

lighthouse. Right. Um, that's somebody who is using often enough where you could forget that you're carrying coke because you're basically always carrying it, right, so you would, oh, quote, I forgot I left it in this pair of pants. You know, you've probably got coke in all sorts of pant pockets all over the place, right, But also the familiarity of the location. Who do you hang the but like I seem like you know anybody, like if you're smoke or it's the same thing if you concealed carry a

lot, it's the same thing you always. Like, especially with concealed carry, you got to remind yourself always that, like you know, I'm walking around with this with this firearm, and you've got to be aware of where you're going into and do they have signs you know, you know you're not

allowed to carry on premises and that sort of stuff. And sometimes like the airports story the other day where all of the firearms founded all the airports, you know for their you know, year end review or their monthly review, and people just forget. If you carry it more often, you forget you've got it on you. And so I agree there's a familiarity with the location and a casual and not a casual user, but someone who is using.

Yeah, absolutely with this And as I understand it, the security to get into the White House, if you live there, it's like non existent because that's your house. You don't they're not going through those screenings, they're not. You know, they're not putting the drug sniffing dogs on Joe Biden. M weird or if you have a pass is the the the other level?

Look after watching some of the stuff over, especially with like the the Finnish PM or the where he's talking about Ireland and Iceland and all, I think they should use Joe Biden, right, just somebody with a trink gun, except in putting them down, it puts them up man. And just you

know, have we talked about this. I thought we talked about the like I've long believed that they get daily transfusions or infusions of vitamins and electrolytes and yeah, yeah, I don't know if we've talked about him, but we're

on the same page here on the show. Okay, we've definitely discussed It's also I don't know if we mentioned remember the sea pap mask thing from two weeks ago where they're like, oh, well he used the sea pap at night you're a bunch of animals, And I'm like, yeah, but I'm pretty sure if you use a sea pap you don't have those marks on your face for six hours and it's like the middle of the day, So right, so, and also I'm curious as as a ce pap user, I

can tell you, but like the marks on his face seem a lot lower. They seem a lot lower. So there are two kinds of masks that go over the face, right, there's the one that goes oh, well, the one that covers the nose in the mouth, and then there's another kind that just goes into the nostrils, just in the nose, and so that's a much lighter apparatus. Right, what it looks like he's got going on is one that covers the nose and the mouth. So that means that

his apnea is going to be pretty pretty severe. I don't have that severe apnea, So it sounds like that. Looks like that's what he's got right too. Right, And so the strap marks, first off, there would be two sets on that kind of mask, because one would be up under just underneath the eyes, and another one would kind of be lower, I guess on the on the cheek. He didn't have two sets. He only had one and it was low. And I'm not aware, and maybe he's

got one that goes over the top of the head or something. I don't know. But when they said cpath. I was like, but those marks, those marks are too low for a mask. You would need another set of marks. But he doesn't have the other set of marks. So I'm curious as to what kind of mask that is. I'm thinking he's getting some like a nebulizer or some oxygen or something like that. Yeah, yeah,

that's everything else. If you'd have told me two years ago, and it didn't matter who the president was, right, just take all the politics out of it, if you and who the justices were, if you'd have told me, with what we perceive as the level of security secrecy in both the White House and the Supreme Court, that you could have somebody literally leaking secret documents from the Supreme Court and smuggling cocaine into the White House and there would

be a total inability to ever find out who'd done it. I would have laughed at you, because that doesn't track man, well, it right? And so like the idea that, oh, we have all of these logs from everybody who's been in the building, okay, and so you took eleven days in what you chased all you chased them all down. No, there's suspects, five hundred suspects. They said, right, And so there was no DNA that was retrievable off of the off of the baggie as well,

I guess no partials And maybe that's maybe that is the case. Maybe they can't figure it out, maybe they maybe they don't know who it is. Okay, So now you're asking me to believe not the corruption, but the

incompetence. And that's worse because now it means this is essentially it's another example of remember the guy that landed the plane in Red Square back in the late eighties early nineties, right, And it shattered this illusion that the Soviet Union and the heart of Moscow, right, that's supposedly the most secure place in the Soviet Union. Some dude in a biplane can land right on your doorstep. And it showed that the paper tiger nature of the security state that was

the USSR. And all of a sudden people are like, oh, well, they've been lying about this. What else are they lying about? And if you can't even protect the premises from the bag of coke, that you have no idea who brought it in. And they happen to go to the exact place where there's a blind spot in the video surveillance, like we're where are there other areas that might be blind spots? Right? And what else has been smuggled into the White House? And you know, it's really kicking

themselves probably like isis right? Trainees like the white powder gonna do? Come on man? Right exactly? Yeah, I mean this is this is like you want so this is the better option, this is the better story. You're telling me that that we just can't. We haven't been securing the building.

And for how long? How's that been going on? Because you watch movies like White House Down or whatever, and they got like, yeah, rockets on the roof, which I'm sure they do, right, you know, you think of the security apparatus, and then when you go through it, as I've gone through, it's it's really it ain't TSA. You know what I'm saying. It ain't t SA and yeah and and and it puts

it. And then there's a story remember the guy ran across the entire lawn got into yeah, yeah, yeah, and you're like, how how did that happen? Yeah? I don't get it. And the there was this big debate at the time, Remember a secret service being moved out from under what Homeland Security and put under a different department or sink. I forget, I think it's under Treasury or something. So it's yeah, there, it's

it's it's unsettling, to say the least, and it is. It is very it's it is very much you know, security theater, it appears, unless unless, of course, they're trying to protect somebody, which, by the way, that is the job of the Secret Service. It is to protect the privacy and the body of certain people. Yeah, well, like do you mister conspiracy theory there, it's not a conspiracy theory. No, no, it's literally the only logical conclusion in both those instances. At this

I refuse to believe. I think in both instances people they may even have started out investigating and then they saw her it was leading and they went nope, they're not going here. And it's not like it's not like there are no examples of a similar course being charted when it comes to investigating the bidens

whatever. Whatever are you implying, sir. I mean, look, you've got yeah, I mean you've got investigations that are leading to some endpoint and you can see it and all of a sudden it's like, oh, no, no, don't do that. Oh no, no, don't charge here. No, you don't have that power. We're gonna we're gonna slow walk this and then we're gonna crush it so it doesn't go anywhere. And now you've got whistle I think the the I R S whistle blower, Guys Shapley,

Gary Shapley. Um. He's now apparently going to testify at House Overside Committee. So yeah, like this, these are the things that we know occurred. And you've got the DOJ you know, putting the kai bosh on investigations before they get you know, too deep and too far. Not just into unter Biden's you know, waving the gun around and his tax issues or

whatever. It's what's underneath that. It's why you're hiding the money, right And you've got now they've named the former head of Barissima as the guy that you know, recorded the bribes that he was paying, the phone call where he was paying the Biden family, Joe Biden on the phone call with him as well. Like this, it's all leading to one place, which is why I suspect Gavin Newsom is hanging around going to states, attacking to Stantis

attacking Trump and stuff. He is kind of waiting in the wings in case Joe can't get across the finish line. Well, and it comes down to to the propulsion of those things via the quote unquote fourth the state. And we could talk for days on the disparity there, but I have to ask you just in a few minutes we have left, didn't what did Josh Stein do to you? Man? You've been on liking to send you on Twitter?

Just please with the dude. Well, the guy, look, he wants to be governor, and he's been building his resume by acting like Roy Cooper did. And he's like, Oh, I'm a consumer protection advocate and look at me. And so every time there's any kind of a natural disaster, he's like swooping in like, Oh, they overcharging you for your roof repairs. Oh they're cutting down trees that are laying across your house. Are they charging you too much money for the chainsaw rentals? And all of that?

And now here you've got people that have donated to Act Blue five ten dollars or whatever, but the campaign finance reports indicate that they're paying twenty thirty thousand dollars Like with thousands of transactions, thousands of donations, and these people, when asked by Stephen Horne, they're like, no, I never made

those donations. Okay, well where's that money coming from? Maybe if we had an attorney general, there was a consumer advocate, you know, first kind of guy, maybe he should look into that, or maybe he won't look into it because he has gotten money from Act Blue. That's what he uses. Because all the Democrats use that platform. Yeah, the Act Blue and then what's the Republicans win red or whatever. Yeah. Right, I've

seen that picked apart. We got about forty five. I've seen that picked apart very thoroughly in a couple of articles, and Act Blue has escaped that treatment in some instance. It's amazing. Yeah, that's the that's the big D shield. You know, that's fantastic. Man, smuggle coke. And I didn't even get into the Ninja Toute story. Man, there's just not enough time in this. We'll have to get to that next week. But all right, man, stay safe. I don't know if it's the weather's

awful, I'm sure it's down people dying in the streets. Yeah, they're laying dead. Yeah, Well that's for grandma's because remember that's what Republicans do. They murder all the grandma's. All right, we gotta thank you, sir. I appreciate it. Have a good one, uh pete calendar there, casey O Day Radio program. We'll be back hang on, keeping you connected. This is nine four five WPTI in the Triad and one oh six one FM Talk in the Triangle. All right, eight thirty five k c

O darre at thirty six now case Today Radio program. I you know what, um, I think, Ross, I'm just tapping out, man. You know, I don't blame you. I look at that stuff. I'm just like, I just retweeted. I retweeted two videos, one the richest redneck fight I've ever seen. Would you say that that's probably pretty accurate by far? Like some dude comes over to his neighbor's mansion and then they start going at it on like the paving stone driveway for you know, the ten

lambos. It's great. Um. Then secondly there's some video and I'm trying to comprehend what the hell is going on. But I had that moment where I just had to tap out, and I'm like, you know what, I don't think the internet's for me anymore. It's some girl dressed as an elf or something who's pretending to eat emojis on the screen, and like, will you just play that video off of the computer in your studio. There's no swear words in it, there's no real words in it except for yump.

It's the weirdest damn thing I think I've seen that, isn't you know, like the when we learned about the CNN Reporter's tentacle porn fetish. So it's I don't know what the hell's going on, man and unt I don't think it's me, but obviously there's a market for it, because I bet that chick's getting paid. What what is this? What is so somebody like puts a pepper emoji all of the All right, that's good. Note I noticed she ignores all the egg plant emojis. Okay, So I saw this

yesterday every Oh, don't tell me you know what this? Yeah? So I saw this yesterday everywhere, and I hadn't didn't like push video. I scroll a lot right, and finally I'm like, all right, I need to figure this out. So I hit the button and I watch it, and I watch it and if. Because I've done Twitch long enough now and I have like some sort of like you know, streaming knowledge and a comprehension of how the model and the systems work, I quickly figured out what she

was doing, and then I looked into it some more. Turns out she is a thirty year old porn star. She's thirty. She is thirty. That right, so she's thirty years old. She does not look right. She does not look thirty. Every time you see one of those fruit emojis going up on stream, that she and she goes, she makes it, she she you know, uh goes. She makes it look like she's gobbling it up right, like she's eating it so up on the screen. Yes,

every time it happens, that is somebody giving her money. No, those are like those are like bits on Twitch and there there is like three hundred thirty thousand likes on this video. What are we doing with our lives? She I am telling you. In the amount of time that she does, probably in an hour of her doing this, of eating fruit emojis on the screen, she's probably making more than you make in a year. And what it is is you have a lot of these lonely people at home.

Some would call them simps right in cells or whatever, but they're sitting at home, and it's like an NPC because her character is sort of like an anime, Japanese anime like her, the way she's moving, it's an NPC fetish. It doesn't make sense now, but it's NPC. It is't not the people in video. It is, Yes, it is. I think she's an anime. So she's acting like an anime NPC character that you can

interact with. And there are people that have this fetish that's its own, have porn hubb I'm getting no porn hubbs or whatever you want to go. That's not the tag. This is just something separate this. I'm sure there is, but this is this. We've got over this before in the past, whatever you think of. We found Gilly suit porn. So yeah, it's the thing. This isn't her. This is her side hustle from her

porn career. Oh, this isn't her her what she does a full time This is just like I'm gonna turn on my phone and make a butt ton of money. What do you do it? What you have a twitch show? What are you doing? Not doing this? I need to broadcast tonight or tomorrow. I haven't done it in a while, but took a few weeks off, went home, so no idea what to play, what to do? I completely lost for the first time in my stream. I have no idea what we gonna do. Well, there you go. Now you

know what you're gonna do. Well. I'm not getting the TikTok either. I'm not doing TikTok well no, no, no, you just do that what she's doing. Put a filter one no, And what in the past you've stuff on your I have, and I'm never a fan of it's always horrible. No, not a fan of it. Anytime somebody's like, hey, you should eat blank, I end up sicker, wanting to die. It's not something I like to do. There was us, There was a

There was a hot sauce. It was a shot, giant shot of Carolina Reaper sauce, which put me through the most pain I've ever been in. After the stream, I was sitting in my man chair feeling like there was going to be an alien popping out of my chest. The cat comes down the stairs and looks at me, and I'm like, oh my god, Cat's consense when you're gonna die. I thought it was the most pain I've

ever been in. There's a crow in the window, and I did those stupid um Yeah, we did those jelly beans that tastes like crap, like the bam the bean boozled and one of them was dead fish. Nearly vomited, worst thing ever. And the other was the food I hate the most on the planet. I cannot eat it. Or baked beans. Oh no, I thought it was Guacamoli's. Gross baked beans. Is it takes Yeah, Oh my god, dude, I can't do it. They're so bush

doesn't Yeah, gross disgusting. I can't do it, absolutely can't do it. So I did that on stream and once again, I once again I nearly vomited. Could not finish it. Couldn't finish it. No, it's even Oh no, so beans and avocado or no go zones for you. Well, this chick's not eating anything. No, she's faking it. She's making a lot of money. So I'm just saying, maybe, uh, maybe you should branch out, because I didn't get it. Now I now

I'm looking at it like holy good lord man. Yeah, the amun amount of money she's making in that video dude, what are we doing wrong? You know, for everyone, for everyone out there? You want to talk about a pendulum shift, you know, when you get in all these allow me to get a little political here, we get into all these discussions and debates about how um uh, you know, men and women the difference is

within the workforce and ability to create things and all of that. The Internet has shifted that pendulum a lot, and yes, a lot of it. Obviously since it sounds like her day job is porn star, there is going to be that angle of it. But arguably just women who are good looking who are in non traditional but internet based roles. Right, The amount of followers and people on there is insane, do you know what I'm saying.

I'm trying to think of some examples. They're not necessarily on the adult side, but there is always that undercurrent of isn't it interesting that this person who is you know, a solid eight and as a woman, and then you have a guy over here who's doing maybe political analysis or something else. There is a there seems to be a definitive direction and whose followers tend to increase faster. Not all the same in all instances, but let's face it,

it's part of it. What was the story we just did where they were upset that there was pretty women involved in it? And it's like, and I'm not, by the way, I'm not hating on it. Whatever, Look, go out do whatever you gotta do. I don't understand this thing you It makes me not want to go on the internet for the entire weekend. But Ross is right, she's killing it. She's making The amount of money she's making is stupid, and it's the weirdest thing I've ever seen.

And if there wasn't if the Internet wasn't here, I can't think of an application where she could do that and make a penny, do you know what I mean? Like, how she would be able to monetize that in any way, shape or form just doesn't exist. But now you have the Internet, apparently there's enough people into this very specific thing. Um, I guess capitalism. What do I know? Man? I just know Ros needs to eat more stuff on his stream. I guess everything's crazy, all right,

Uh, dude, let's do this race agic from the Weather Channel. Um, I'm aging out of the Internet. I'm done. Yeah, I don't believe it or not. I'm trying to stay more and more away from it. So um yeah, anyway, but well we can't stay away from Casey's the flooding, the aerial flood advisories until nine thirty, it's called them.

The Halifax parts of Wilson Counties. A lot of it's moving east now, but um, not only heavy rainfall and some roads clothes in some spots, but also thunder lightning and getting into Green County there's snow Hill now central Green County. A little bit of a bowing feature on this cluster of thunderstorms. Could be some stronger stra line wins there, so some nasty stuff east the

triangles. Still some showers and heavier thunderstorms in and around now Durham Counties that come back in heading near wake Forest and into Franklin County and then back to the west body showers let along Interstate forties to go westbound into the triad, so don't cross water covered roadways. The worst rain now is off to the east and the flood advisories or more. Baby, you're returning the safternoon, we'll get into mid and upper eighties. It will be steaming and humid.

Still a chance of more flooding this safternoon, especially since we've had the rain this morning, more scattered storms over the weekend with a bias in the afternoon and probably getting the mid uper eighties. You could get into the nineties if you don't get rain. But I think we'll get some drier air in here next week as a ridge builds, but hot and humid. May see some

low end mid nineties for multiple days starting on Monday. So we'll get through the rain and then I think we'll have a couple of days in the rain, but some uncomfortable air continuing to stick around. All right, do appreciate it, sir, Have a good week. You with us on Monday? Are you I am? I am here? Okay, Well, we'll talk to you then, have a good one and we'll come back to chat with

Joan Donnager next. Hang on if the show. After the show is on the iHeartRadio app, search Casey O Day for the podcast on the iHeartRadio app. Right, good morning eighty two and your Bloomberg update when Joan Donnager who joins us now, Joan, what is going on? Well? Casey's streaming is the main issue. The reason the union representing Hollywood actors have decided to

strike. The union's president, Fran Dresser, says the entire business model has been changed by streaming, so for the first time in more than sixty years, Hollywood actors are now on picket lines along with writers who have been striking since May. The actor strike means production the show's already written is going to stop, and so promotions, award shows, even things like actor appearances at the big Comic Con International coming up in San Diego. There have been rumors

for years Disney will sell ESPN. Now company CEO Bob Iger says everything is on the table for the sports network. He says though Disney won't necessarily spin off the ESPN, but it is looking for what he calls strategic partners that could help with distribution or content. Disney wants to make ESPN into a direct consumer streaming service, he's not saying when he's also not shooting down the idea that Disney could spin off or sell ABC. Fired Fox host Tucker Carlson is

working to raise money to start a new media company. To Wall Street Journal reports, it might use Twitter as its backbone. That company would feature longer versions of the free videos Carlson's been posting on Twitter. Ultimately, though it would be driven by subscriptions, the deal could serve as a test case for

Elon Musk's video ambitions for Twitter. Hope you like your coffee black? One of the most popular sweeteners we use in coffee and in all buyet soda, aspartain, is now, according to the World Health Organization, possibly carcinogenic, and the report also finds the safety of aspartain really is it a major concern at the amounts we generally use, but the World Health Organization says it might

be better if we look for drinks without sugar or sweeteners. Robin Hood wants to be more than a mimeme online broker started offering traditional and roth iras. Dal Jones says that could help attract new customers and move its revenues away from a boom bust cycle. Robin Hood says it will add a one percent match to any deposit in the retirement accounts and yes, casey, we are pet

people. Numerator took a look at what we bought over Amazon's Prime Days this week says the top item bought temptations cat Treats, a University of Buffalo associate professor, tells market Watch. It reflects the increase in pet ownership and care during the pandemic and lonely women too obvious covered in cats. Manez, hey, I have a question. So our our audience has a unique fascination with Jeff. What is? What is? What does Jeff do on vacation?

What does Jeff do on vacation? He probably catalogs more of his music. I don't know. I didn't ask him this time. Music. Yeah, oh yeah, Oh my gosh. And he has like bookcases full of CDs and he, you know, has them organized and cataloged. And we got binders. He's got binders with like directories and stuff. You know, we might after this week. We'll have to see. Okay, all right, Well we'll take his brain next week. So thank you so much, Joan, have a good weekend. Okay, you too, Thanks a lot,

Bye bye bye. Does that track with you? Ross? Jeff just sitting home where you organ his CDs? Man? Step ah? Oh, my brain, my brain, my brain. All right, eight fifty five. I got time for this. What the heck, let's get it in. This is just bonkers. Ready for this. Robert F. Kennedy Junior had a press dinner thing, and this is the headline, Robert F. Kennedy junior prestoner devolves into screaming and polemic farting. So I'm gonna set the scene.

So there's an event going on. I guess one of the guys who's hosting the event, who is literally a former writer for the New York Post who did this story, Doug Deckert. He had quote reportedly been drinking and began screaming the climate hoax, which apparently jinned up some elderly art critic who didn't take kindly to it and started referring. And I guess they're friends or whatever, and they started referring to each other being the derogatory names and debating.

This is literally going in on in front of somebody who's at this this fundraiser precedenter or I guess as a precedenter um, you know, to build momentum for their campaign. And these two start going at it, and then when words fail them, one of them literally starts farting in the other one's

direction. Which I couldn't think of a better analogy for our modern discourse in political debate than this right here, man, it's well tweet the story out for you at Casey on the radio, so you can check it out there. But yeah, I don't know what the hell's going on, and I don't know do you win the debate at that point? Like at that point once you're you know your opponents made their argument, you've made yours, and it's it's come down where you got to hit them with that that super rebuttal.

If you hit him with really good one, does that do you get points? I guess I'm not up on the modern way of debate these days. So but yeah, that's a thing that happened. It is an actual story and is just bonkers. Also at the dinner, let's see Dennis former. Oh, so, Kennedy's campaign manager is Dennis Kucinich, So I just remember him running for president. That's crazy. And then, real quickly,

one thing Jones said that I was not aware of. In the last thirty seconds, I didn't realize fran Drescher was the head of the SAG after negotiations. Can you imagine being in a negotiating table with the nanny that's gotta be by designed That's amazing. So anyway, all right, we made it. Weather sucks. Stay safe out there. If you're downstream, so to speak, and we'll talk to you on Monday. Have a good one.
