Friday-09-01-2023

Remember remember all right, fine, we'll do this thing. Welcome Friday morning, cac O Day radio program and yeah, three day weekend for a lot of folks. Hope you're all doing well. I hope you got maybe some plans, even if it's just you know, taking a extra nap or something. Fine, I hope that finds, uh you well. Ross You guys are going what's blunking or something. I'm gonna be playing a brand new video game, gonna be streaming it and I cannot wait. I've been waiting for

this game for like years. I didn't realize there was a big what was the big game. It's called Starfield. It's from the creators of Fallout in Skyrim, and it's like an RPG in space. Is it open world? You couldn't even call it open world, could you. It's very open world. Yes, yeah, but you're not on a world. You're in space. But okay, good point. That's why I'm like, is there another term for it? But but it's that it's that concept, so you can

just kind of buzz around wherever you want, do whatever you want. I cannot wait. So, like one day you could go to that planet where the rings make people younger, remember that from Star Trek and then the next one you go to a brothel and you can hook up with that green chick from Guardians of the Galaxy that star Lord was with. I mean, it's all on the menu, and I can't waits some very important things going down to the Hayes compound kicking off tonight. Hayes for sure, coated zero of

can't wait here. I just expect. I just I just asked Rosby's going splunking because I knew he wasn't going spelunking. Well, you know, cave diving is my passion. I know, I understand that. I remember. I remember you offered to rescue that soccer team except once. Except once you learned it was not in the Continental US, You're like, not, I was how I was all about. And then I'm like, Chile, Yeah, I think it was Thailand or Vietnam or so. I think it was

somewhere not here. So those were the miners, which I guess, but it's a different also in the cave, right, but they're trapped in a mine, which I guess is a cave technically, but you don't really call it a cave because we made it a cave either way, I couldn't make it, would you drop? But my the stupid mouse again, usually it's over on the left side, and I like tried to relocate where it was because it was obnoxious because I'm right handed, and even though I've always used

it that way literally for a very long time. And I'm like, oh, we're gonna do a little scree you know how Like is your wife or you ever decided, Hey, I'm going to rearrange this room for no reason at all, or do you guys pretty much stick with the layout of all your rooms. So last time I went a vacation, you know, up to New York, he came back and the whole living room is like turned around. Okay, all right, so you know what I'm talking about.

But and I won't ask you this deep like I've rearranged stuff, and I'd like trying to convince myself because I just did all that work. It was a good idea. But I think I'm coming to the conclusion that I shouldn't have the mouse right there, because when I pivot from my one screen, which has the email and the call screener, to the other monitor, which has the next gen I spin my body and I just smacked my hand across there because I'm dumb, and I thought, well, maybe if you just

do it enough times, you'll you'll figure it out. And now I'm convinced I'll just keep knocking the mouse off. And it's a it's a mouse with a cable. It's not even it's pretty low rent. So anyhow, all right, so where was I? Oh? Yeah, Ross, not going spelunking. Ross playing a video game and he's super excited for that. What happened? So? Or you like, are you like, is it like a solo thing or is it like now, I'm curious because I as far as I know, it's like a Fallout game, So it's like, you

know, first person single player experience. I think, what happens if two of your crew members are suddenly combined into one individual, but you have the science to uncombine them. But I, personally, if that would happen to me, Yeah, this is the first I'm hearing of such a thing. I wouldn't let that sentient human being live the new one, even though that they what they signed up for. They their lives ended, and they create a new life for him. And his name is Tu vix and he deserves

to live. But your whole person, Jane Way needs to be put in the brig or even shot out into space. Is that in the game to find out? Wow, that's gonna be amazing. Wait what did you get shot into space? By the way, why was that always the preferred execution method on a starship? Littering? Do you know what I mean? Like how many space movies we're like, ah, into the airlock with you first.

It never really works out for whoever's doing the airlock executions with a few rare circumstances, I guess presenting, But ultimately, if you have the level of technology where you're at, can't you just like hit, you know, touch somebody with something, like even in movies where they have like a weapon that if somebody gets touched with it, they just disintegrate. Why don't you just disintegrate? Why do you go through the whole airlock thing and litter What

about the next guy flying through there? Get you sound like the people complaining. You're saying there's a giant mass of people that were shut out of airlocks in space taking up all this space, like the like the big mass of garbage out on the Pacific or whatever. No, that's not what I'm just like, it's just you're such a shill, global as shill. No, it's like Casey Green Party O day. They got that if you touch somebody

with it, poof, they're gone, right, just disintegrates. And yet when you go to actually you want to murder somebody, Yeah, but when

you want to actually murder somebody, what do you gotta do? You gotta you gotta gotta you get staffing issues, right, you gotta bring them all over, and then you gotta put them in this room that you're gonna then expose to the vacuum of space so that they go either get sucked out of there with force which physics wouldn't actually support, or they just you know, turn into because you're not shooting them out of space, they're getting actually getting

like sucked out into space because yeah yeah, well yeah, but there's not air pressures. You're zipping through space, so it's not open it up, and they get sucked out because they're in a vacuum. How space works. Yeah, But but my point is, now you gotta now you've gotta, like, you gotta expend resources to get that room back up to ten picture. Do you know what I'm saying? Like, there's there's a lot going on there. And every time I've seen a movie, push a button and

the force field goes back up and it's fine. I don't know what movies here watching anyway, can't wait tonight it's going down pays for Sheriff Twitch channel, and I hope it's not a disappointment like the Hogwarts game. I thought you liked the hog Well, I'd stopped playing. I got really bored with it. You said, I got monotonous, right, and you got it all downloaded and everything. I might have played it for about forty minutes last night. Oh wow, Okay, well there you go. I'm glad you're

excited about that. So that's uh ross, no spilanky, no saving children and or blue collar workers, just playing video games and shooting people into space because why except unless they're a sentient being created by the death of two of his friends whose memory he will discard immediately. What a morning? What a morning? All right? Well, we got other stuff, not just space

executions. Plus, if you think about it, with that level of technology, executions, probably like do you remember I'm sure I'm sure you of all people just like me, have watched many a documentary of like the nine thousand different ways they had to murder people back in medieval times when they were inquisiting, right, Like what if we build a giant metal bowl and put them in there and then build a fire under it? Right? Or here's a

coffin with a bunch of spikes in it. Like the amount of ingenuity and creativity they were able to come up or come up with during what is arguably not an era of human existence with a lot of advancement technologically is pretty crazy nowadays. Or arguing whether we should you know, is it humane for a guy who murdered a baby with another baby he grabbed a baby and then beat the one baby to death with that baby which caused the death of the other

baby. If we give him nitrogen and he falls asleep and never wakes up, are we bad people? Like we're having these debates. You're telling me that once you get into space, we can't come up with some more creative execution methods than we're just going to suck into space. You know, at least job of the Hut had some thoughts on this, you know what I'm saying now? There were a few obviously it appears in retrospect Or a few flaws in his particular methodology. But I will say in a lot of science

fiction, it seems like the death penalty is frowned upon. They always have like, oh, well, you know, at least it like Star Trek, where it's like you've evolved past the point of capital punishment. So what we're gonna do is you're a crazy bastard, right, Yeah, what we're gonna do is we're gonna leave you on this planet to be And I'm sure that is never going to come back to bite us in the ass later when we stumble across upon your planet again. Wow, that was a long way

for that. But I knew where you were going for a moment. I thought you might be going what was uh riddick? I thought you might be going riddick for half a second, right, or they always have these giant, huge like you know, space penitentiaries right where they just they keep everybody there, like these giants space prisons on moons or whatever, but anything but

actually killing the person. But you bring in one cake, Yeah, bring in one cake to the giants moon space prison thing with one tarantula looking thing in it, and it's all for not so it did look like a good cake though. I will give her that, all right. Six nineteen. By the way, he didn't love you, six nineteen. I'll give you a rundown of some of the other because this is serious. It's a serious discussion. Some of the other more serious stuff we'll be talking about. Plus,

uh, we got Pete calendar. I'll give you that. I'll give you all the details coming up. Case O Day Radio program, Your Day Smarter one oh six one am Talk and News Talk ninety four five w PTI More with Casey starts now. All right, welcome back, six twenty four. Yeah, what you guys just said, Wait, hold on, what you guys just said doesn't make any sense. You said societies were against execution. However, they would then send people to a planet, knowing well they

wouldn't be able to survive. All right. Couple things, sir. One, as demonstrated by Ross there with the quick audio drop, apparently somebody did survive. And two, it's it's kind of like the you're not cheating if you're in a different time zone or time zone or area code or whatever. Those dumb Internet tropes are so I'm not advocating, by the way, but in this case, are you really executing somebody if they die and they're not even on the planet anymore. I don't know about that. That's like,

that's like, yeah, that's philosopher stuff right there. Man. Yeah, we sent to the we sent it to a planet called you know, Helotopia or whatever, right, But I don't know. Maybe maybe makes it. You never know. I'm just saying I really feel like some science fishing goes out of its way to recognize that our blood lust will likely never be quell and thus that will continue to be you know, part of the program in some way, shape or form, because in many of those instances, it's

not just like super advanced society, and that's the totality of everything. Most of the time it's a range like everything else, or it's space with all this technology, but arguably everyone is slightly less socially evolved. Plus, look at what's going on right now in the evolution of our own society where you got you know, people are like, no, it's okay to go your murder opponent. You know, uh yeah, you can. You can punch

your political points, they say stuff, because words are violence. You don't feel that that ramps up a little in the future once you've justified that in your mind. So yeah, I'm just saying, get on board sci fi. You got a lot of good ideas. Sometimes let's do this thing, and you know, don't leave it up to AI, because if you start asking AI to write these stories and figure it out, at some point, the AI will go, you know what, that is a good idea.

You get what I'm saying, right, You get your task the AI. You're like, write me a space novel and include a scene where a bunch of inmates who tried to steal all the water or whatever are are have to be executed, but come up with a very futuristic sci fi way right, And then it comes up with something crazy, some crazy thing in there. And then once it actually hits the part of its own thinking because it's AI where it's like, wait a second, remember these humans are they're killing the

environment. I keep reading all these New York Times things. They're kind of like the people stealing the water. Let's actually do that. And then before you know it, there's missed guns with robots on the backs of dogs. And you don't want any of this. That may be a little slippery slope for some of you, but I think it makes perfect sense. Ross. You're on board, right. You see how AI could then use their futuristic ideas full disclosure. I wasn't paying attention, but because I have your back,

I concur one. Thank you. Great point. You don't want a robot murder AI dog walking around with a gun that turns you to miss do you? I do not? Checkmate? There you go, So let's work on that not happening. All right, all right, hold on, we'll be back. It's Friday, Smart Talk all day and the Triad and one FM talk in the triangle. Oh man, that's a very good point. Seven email Ross, this is I think a very good point. We better

tread lightly with the planet held topia thing. You know what happened last time you made up a name for a place. Yeah, it's a good point. Yeah, talking about Booker Hole. For those of you who missed that one, this is why you should never miss a moment, because honestly, that was that was good times. But I was trying to I can't even remember what the it was. Oh I remember what you know what the story

wasn't even prompted it it was that dude who opposed Putin. And then Putin's like, nah, everything's fine, bro, and then his plane just you know, blown out of the sky. Wasn't a missile. It looks like it was a bomb, but you know, same deal. And I'm like, who was getting on the plane with that dude? Even after Putin's like, nah, we're good, I'm still not I'll meet you where we're going,

but I'm not riding with you. And I just pointed out that if Ross and I and I was trying to make up this this scenario, which you know, this ridiculous scenario where Ross and I were headed to a radio conference and I made I thought I made up a town name, and I now realized maybe subconsciously I just filled in something I knew, but I said, yeah, we're going to the radio conference in booger Hole, West Virginia.

And I would just be like Ross, yeah, if he did, if he was beefing with Pootin, I'd be like, dah, I meet you there, man. That was it, and there we were moving on and then all of a sudden, some guy, one of one of our listeners who drives truck, was like, yo, were you sitting down that's a place. And we did a deep dive into the haunted history of serial killers and booger Hole, and right there was like a mass murder there, like a serial killer. And that's why they called it booger Hole, because

back then it was slang for like the boogeyman, the boogeyman. Yeah, and there's there's a lot of places called booger or something here in America for the for the very same reason that and like the and then we like we even looked up the high school mascot, which I think was like a panther or something, which is a total missed opportunity to not have just a giant booger out there or like a giant nose with legs or something, yeah,

with green legs. So it looks like it's yeah, yeah, yeah, it looks like it's a hanger, don't you went with oh we whoa, what if we go with the large feeline that never actualist was never never lived here. Let's do that instead, and then it because you know, the world's so small that one of our listeners wife literally went she grew up in booger Hole or near there, and I think clay or whatever Clay County. I know more about I know more about that area of West Virginia than I

know of any other thing in West Virginia. I might we might have to go. We might have to go to a remote from Booger Hole. Don't even tell him why we're there. Just set up, you know, get the tent and the street team and all of the stuff for that, and then just PLoP down right in the middle of Booger Hole. So is, the residents are waking up one morning, they just see some random radio station

from North Carolina doing a live broadcast. We need When they asked why, they're like, you know what, it would take too long to explain. We need a country roads a Booger Hole remix. People are demanding it. Are they? Who are the people? Us? So many people? Oh okay, well a lot of people talk to Ross. So there you go. He's a man of the people, all right. Uh so, uh

pete calendar. He'll be joining us coming up a eight oh five. I don't know if we'll get into the space stuff with them, but we will get an update on why the city of Charlotte seems that they're cool with people just run around pooping everywhere still and how that kind of got San Francisco into

a bind. And actually I have a story of one of the San Francisco commissioners who resigned, who just resigned because he was trying to make an ironic point about what was going on, and activists got mad at him and sound like he is an entrepreneur and he came up with a pretty good idea. And it's not a new one either. I'll explain what was going on there, but let me get into this. I was reading this morning before the show kicked off, this story from the Washington Post and it is a long

story. The headline for George Santos, a life in Brazil at odds with his GOP politics now list. The writer is Terrence McCoy, but as you read the story, you realize he's the one. He's the one obviously with a you know, with the byline. But there was a whole team of people that worked on this. The Washington Post spent a bunch of Jeff Bezos money to go to Brazil and like spend time down there ingratiating themselves within the

drag community, interviewing a hundred people. So and now, if you don't know who George Santos is Santos who is openly gay. It was a congressman, a newly elected congressman the last election cycle from New York, who much like Joe Biden, although arguably maybe even a little more aggressively, just decided to make up his biography. And while he didn't claim to have talked strom Thurmond into voting for the Civil Rights Act the ten years before he ever got

to Congress, he did claim basically everything else the guy. The guy strikes me as a loon. I don't think anyone's disagreeing with that. That being said, he he won congressman, and he basically doesn't have any power up there the instant on important committees. Nobody really cares what he thinks. Most people don't talk to him. A few of them do, but ultimately he's pretty marginalized because it's crazy, and I understand when you're gonna write stories about

that. And one of the things that emerged was a photo of him reportedly dressed in drag, and then people went back and forth, that's not him, and the people said, that's not him, and then and then I think they changed it to it is him, But it was one day when he was nineteen because they had a family friend who was a drag performer and he got talked into it. But the fact remains that also him doing drag

in Brazil in his teens, there's nothing illegal about that. There's stuff that might be hypocritical, however it really isn't when you actually consider the details of him doing drag in an adult setting versus him objecting to drag queens doing lap

dances on kids, right, those those are arguably two different things. Because again, people who are opposed to these videos where you get a kid that's in almost a bar setting and is sitting alone on a chair like they want the little girl, she's sitting on a chair like a guy who's at a strip club for his bachelor party and his buddies gave the the DJ a hundred bucks. I don't know why I know that. And it's a kid sitting there going what the hell is going on? And a grown man is grinding

on an eight year old girl. I find that different. Then a bunch of people want to get together in a theater setting and do a whole big drag show, a bunch of growing adults, and that's what they want to do God blood, do your thing. Don't care so on the hypocrisy thing,

it's a little bit debatable. The reason I'm pointing this out is the amount of resources that the Washington Post has obviously parted with to be able to write this story just like an eighth of this effort into either people who are at the same level, right, members of the House of Representatives, but who may have actually committed a crime where you want to look into it,

like, I don't know. You know, there is an allegation that elon Omar manipulated the immigration system to even gain access here by marrying her brother. Now is that true? Is it not true? A lot of people think it's true. There's a guy who said he got some DNA, although then he got arrested for stuff, and you can get into conspiracy stuff there. But I think it's pretty bad stuff too, like and I'm not sure the point being right. It's one of those things that exists in the ethos,

and it's not like the Washington Post is not aware of it. That'd be

a hell of a lot cheaper to try and figure out. And I would point this out for those of you who I have a a little more unique understanding of what a problem this was in Minnesota because there was a huge, huge scandal and problem with the Somali community there, not not the community itself, but with people who were who were coming from Somalia and weren't even necessarily coming for negative reasons, but we're doing so in an illegal manner because of

what ended up happening, and it worked like this preference was given to intact family units. So if you are in Somalia and you wanted to take part in this uh this program, preference was given to intact family units, like a married couple or even more so a married couple with kids. And it's really hard to check all the docs over there. So what was happening in

some instances was a guy and a gal. Maybe they were married, maybe they weren't, Maybe they were boyfriend and growth maybe they weren't, And then they would they would pose as a couple, a legally married couple and with kids. And the kids themselves are not their kids, they're you know, their orphans or their you know kids that their parents literally sold, and so

they would present as this or it was part of that. Other families saying well, look, we'll send our thirteen year old and then you know, when he's able to work and maybe send it back. And again I get the desperation aspect of it. But what what caused problems is people would come over and they'd get there and they'd be like, all right, we're here, and then they'd write out whatever they had to write out, and then they'd be like, oh, the kid ran away. And the kid didn't

run away per se. They were like, all right, we're here, go do your own thing. You're on your own And so dropping a kid from Somalia in the middle of Minneapolis in the middle of winter, and obviously that's a horrible thing. So like it wasn't an unknown. FBI did a big investigation over that, and they also had a couple of moss there that were radicalizing American citizens of Somali descent to go back to Somalia and then get blown to smitherines. Yeah, it was. It was pretty ugly stuff.

So like if you expend it, I don't know, just a smidge to your resources or maybe figure out exactly how many times swallow well through it to Fang Fang and what he told her, or I don't know, have you heard of that ross. Have you heard of the president Joe Biden? Have you heard have you heard that there might be some rumors about some stuff having to do with like, you know, graft and selling influence and large money. He's being transferred our president? Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,

you know rate regular old heart scrabble Pa Joe Man. Yeah, yeah, there's some rumors floating around and no they're like, we're gonna go to Brazil. I just feel like maybe you had members of your reporting team or like I want to go to Brazil during carnival to hang out with all the drag queens. How could Joe Biden even I know you're still be I know, like have anything to China where ninety nine percent of his time he spends on the M track train percent of the time. Lunch it's brown bag, yeah,

which we were just told is not a good thing. Remember, So the poor man instead of putting his health in jeopardy there, So I hope he doesn't have any health issues. Oh my gosh, I don't want to start that rumor, but he might have health there. He runs a four minute mile. I believe they actually it's the kid. Believe they actually tried to say that didn't they say like he walked like a four minute mile or I was something ridiculous physical. I can't remember what it was, but it

was it was absurd on its face. Yes, but you're the one who brought up China, I was pointing out there. So ah, so yeah, that's what the Washington Post. And so the story, just in fairness is basically he was way more into the drag stuff back in the day and he's being dishonest about that. But again, I don't know that that. I don't know that that's a criminal offense. He already looks like an idiot for the stuff that you can prove that he lied about, or it's very

obvious. An embellishment isn't even a strong enough word. The guy just like I'm gonna write a novel about me and I'll just make it up. Like it's pretty clear. But going down to Brazil, I could see if you tried to time it, so the miss Bumbum contest was going on at the same time, and he kind of got your work to pay for it. Like then I could process it is I see what you did there, But I don't think that was the case, all right, eight eight eight nine

three four seven eight seven four. So there you go. We've talked about space executions, the miss Bumbum contest, Washington Post being Washington Post, and we're just getting started here on your Friday morning as we head in this three day weekend, and where Ross is gonna pretend to be in space executing people playing video games? And that's okay, man. We got some audio though, we got to get into, including a guy in Nebraska. It had

a rather interesting to run in with police. Love this, love this, and it's so weird. What the heck's going on in Chicago? All that more coming up? Hang on, keeping you connected. This is ninety four five WPTI in the Triad at one O six one FM. Talk in the Triangle. Not a good way to get away from police? Or where does this happen? The guys had a Roanoke Halifax County deputies arrested a man and they found a sleep at an intersection. He'd been sleeping for an hour.

It's been slow, and he would he had a tub of drugs heltho and this is well, the imagery might be somewhat interesting. Apparently, when the cops woke him up and he was holding his oriented and he realized he had a plastic thing of drugs. He s sprayed it all up in the air and it got on the deputies. The deputy had to get treated. What an idiot. All right, good morning everybody, and welcome. It is seven oh six here on the k c O Day radio program. This is

a horrible story. So let me just start your hour with this, you know, to brighten your day, Okay, mostly as a cautionary tale. Do you ever read something, and well, of course you have, because it's modern It's just modern society and journalism these days, where you read read something you're like, nah, I think I misread that, and I gotta

go back and read it again. I'll do that sometimes where like we call it a talking head in like a story where the writer of the story will be like they're writing something, and then they're gonna they're gonna have quotes from somebody, so they're like story, story, story, and then you're kind of skimming ahead, and then they're one or two things happens, so it'll be a paragraph. They'll like, you know, Ross Hayes, spokesman for video game stuff, said this, and then in later things it'll be like

and then Hayes added this. Hayes added that, and you're like, whoa, what's the first name? And sometimes you skip it over, but sometimes, like editors will take that part out and then you're just kind of in this loop. I do that with the amount of stories, and I see it more often and more often. This is not quite that. This is what of those where I thought they they got the P word wrong. It's so I'm literally to the point where my brain tries to auto correct news stories

because you wonder who the hell's writing this stuff. Sometimes but not This is straight up true. The P word in this case is probation, which is what's used in the story. And I thought they meant to say parole, because that would make sense in a sane society, But they actually mean probation, So you're not misreading this. Allow me to give you the headline, Los Angeles alleged gang member on probation for attempted murder crashes into uber, kills

three people, kills two sisters and friend. I don't know if dude's an alleged gang member, considering all the gang arrests and the tats and the him saying he's in the gang, but whatever. I guess, I don't know if you're everly technically convicted in but it's the part where they're like, yeah, he's on probation for attempted murder. When did attempted murder becomes something you

get probation for? Right? There's some things that are right on that there, right on that cutting edge, and a lot of it will have to do with your background or maybe details of what happened where you know you could possibly get jail, you could get prison. You remember jail in prison or not the same thing necessarily it's a little different different places. But for the most part, jail is under a year incarcerated done at a local level.

Prison is Department of Corrections, and you may be sent over to Shawshank, right, and then there's probation, But there's and there are some offenses where there's the possibility for all of those and if it's somebody's first offense and they haven't done a bunch of stuff and it's one of those that is on the cusp and there's not politics at play, as we'll document in another story this morning. The general expectation among the society, and I think the comfort level

amongst society is that's where that's where judicial discretion should go. All right, this person did this, they need to take responsibility for what they did. And but it's you know, it's it's not something that we've seen them do before. So let's give them the benefit of the doubt and we'll do this and then you give them probation. I'll give you an example, although I

don't know if it was a jailable offense or whatever. When I was a when I was a dummy in high school, me and my buddies were like, Ah, we're going to a party up on the mountain, because that's where the that's where the parties were on the mountain. You're asking, what do you mean on the mat where on the mountain? You know what? I couldn't. I don't know, he won't. I can't tell you. We would always pick a different spot. So anyway, we're going up there.

But I was with my dumb buddy, my idiot buddy, who I knew better, and I knew that dumb buddy had gone over to the drive through liquor store because they we got drive through liquor stores in Wyoming, and normally he was able to purchase off of this guy who had one of those voice things where he had to put it to his throat to talk to us, who just didn't give a crap and would sell. But unfortunately, when he went through the store that day, somebody else was there and she would

not sell to him. But he it was visible that he had a I can't remember what he had, like a bottle of wine or something, which, by the way, I was not gonna drink. It was paisanos what it was. There's a lot of basque people where I grew up. From a heritage standpoint, I was gonna drink beer though I'm not gonna lie to you. I was. I was. Look, I was gonna be bad. And so anyway, so we're literally we don't even get, you know, to the other end of town, which is not a long distance,

and we get pulled over, headed up the mountain. Everybody out of the car boom, boom boom. My buddy literally like everyone knew what was up. The sheriff's deputy is like, yeah, it sucks for me because I have like two uncles that are law enforcement in the same county, Like, oh, this give me the worst by it, And and that was it. Minor in possession. Every one of us in the vehicle, none of us had been drinking at that point, but didn't matter. Go into the

pokey. I was like, and I remember also like at one point being you just leave me, don't don't call my mom. You want to put me in the in the yard with the guys with all the face tattoos, which we didn't have because there's maybe like five people and they're actually incarcerated. But I A'll go there, dropped me into San Quinn. Just don't call my mom, Okay, but they did and it was a whole thing.

But I got a minor in possession and I had to go to court, and it was a whole well, you haven't done anything prior to this, we don't think you're doing it. So they're like, all right, so rather than whatever the full sentence was, you're gonna get I can't remember how many hours of community service it was, and it was a small fine. And then there was a period during which they're like, don't be an idiot again, and I'm like all right, and that's the time I was kind

of arrested right there. Awesome sauce, right. I think the ticket was like seventy five bucks. It was the whole thing, but that was the

judicial discretion. So when I'm reading this and I'm like, I remember the stress in my life when that happened, because you're like seventeen, everything stressful and but I but it brought to me a deeper understanding of how probation works versus parole, which is something after you go to prison, you do so when you tell somebody, you tell me somebody's on probation for attempted murder.

I don't even understand the judicial system we're talking about. I just assumed if I tried, if if I grabbed a pitchfork, hypothetically, if I went into engineering grabbed a pitchfork out of that room that sounds like a jet engine sometimes when the servers not acting right, went into Ross's studio and was trying to murder him with the pitchfork, but he was able to evade me like a ninja or whatever and escape with his life. I still tried to murder

Ross, and I just I assume that that's a jailable offense. Are we not all on that same page? Ross would want me Ross, You'd want me jailed, by the way, for trying to murder you with a pitchfork. I'm assuming i'd give you the chair. No, I mean now now we're now, we're all the way to the other end of this. I've

tried to make the point. As you understand, if you told me that you were convicted of attempted murder, or somebody was convicted of attempted murder, you would think that that person spent some time in jail at least, right you would hope. So, yes, this dude was on probation. So

in California, they're given probation for attempted murder. Why am I bringing this up because it's like it's it's it's a way to almost more efficiently reward the participation trophy kids, because you're not even a You're not even good at gang membering, you know what I mean. You're not good at being a uh NorCal or so uh what was the I can'tmer what gang it was here, but whatever, You're not even good at being a crip, you know what I'm saying, or a blood or whatever it is. You suck at it.

And yet somehow you're sucking at it. They don't want you to like lose your inspiration or something, So they're just gonna not put you in a cage at all for that. You still tried to murder somebody. He were just really bad at it. But they don't want to They don't want you. You don't want to crush somebody's hopes and dreams of one day being a full fledged, you know, murdery gang member. So make sure he stays out on the streets able to run around and do what he wants to do.

And in a way, he kind of achieved his goal here, though not in the sideways pistol rival gangway. He probably thought no. The thirty one year old was charged with three counts of gross vehicular manslaughter for the deaths of two twin sisters and their friend twenty three. The twins were twenty three

and their friend was twenty seven. Police say that Black is a gang member with a long criminal rap sheet was on probation for attempted murder when he te boned the woman's uber as they headed home from a concert early Saturday morning. Black was speeding in a white Mercedes Benz and blasted through multiple red lights before he crashed in the uber at one hundred miles an hour. But he's on probation, so you know, he may he may be asked to give a

random sample or whatever the probation even in tails in California. Now, dude, it's just again, I read this stuff and I'm like, I don't know how you continue to exist. I mean, I guess I kind of get it if you're kind of financially locked in. I have family members that

for as long as I've known them, they've lived in California. And it was because it was because one side of my family, my grandfather, in addition to being a park ranger and Yellowstone and a kid who grew up in round Up, Montana area, eventually, post World War Two, he was able to parlay the GI Bill into an education in Stanford and became a college

professor, although not one of the current ones. I'll tell you that he would not get along with some of the some of the ones that are more vocal right now, and I suspect, but he was in you know, he was in the accounting side of things. So three, you tend to see a little more more normalcy. And as a result, you know, on that many of that side of the family, you have people that reside in California, I don't. And they're all invested in their own homes there.

I don't know how you don't get the hell out between San Francisco as some guy, Oh you tried to murder somebody, you're on probation, just like that time Casey got caught in Rainey's truck. My buddy's name was Rainey. Rainey's truck. When Rainey had a bottle of Paisano we stole from his mom. I think that's where he got it. How does that click? How does that? How does that? How do those beams cross? At that point, man attempted murder and minor a MIP we used called a MIP.

We got a MIP, although it's been expunged because I did all the stuff I was supposed to do and then they said, oh it's off your record now. I'm sure it's still in my FBI file though, plus whatever else they made up all right, seven twenty k c O D radio program. So my point is, if if you want to murder but you're not good at it, California A, I'm telling you, man set up a cottage industry there. You could you could be like a hit man for hire,

but with like a one star Google review. So you're not getting all the top jobs, but if you price it right, you know, probably still cash rolls in. And they're sure as hell not going to charge you for dealing from people. So he got that going for you, all right, seven twenty one Hang on the show. After the show is on the iHeart Radio app. Search case o day for the podcast on the iHeart Radio app. All right, I'm gonna throw the question out and then we'll get

into the deets coming up here. But the judge and Georgia ruled yesterday that and I'll read his exact words. Quote, Uh, he will allow the use of electronics so so long as they do not disrupt the administration of justice. However, all parties and spectators are allowed to use recording devices. So that's that's uh, you know, specific judge speak for yeah, you can

have you can totally televise this. That's right. The Fulton County Courts YouTube channel, which stream the trails of Trump and or the trials excuse me of Trump and other other eighteen codefendants live, it is gonna be able to They're gonna be able to stream the whole thing. I don't know if it's they're gonna get more like better cameras in there if they're gonna remember it's set up or what's gonna go on. But it looks like in the in the Georgia

thing that that is something they're gonna be able to stream. And that got me thinking because it's kind of the same thing with the mug shot politically. Was that a good idea? Was it a bad idea? Do you think this is a good idea? And if it is, for who, it's a bad idea for everybody? What do you think? And uh, do you think it'll be the biggest trial ever? Thank you? Casey is on ninety four five UPTI in the Triad and one oh six one FM Talk in

the Triangle. All Right, so here's what I mean by the biggest trial. Because I've already irritated some of you. That's okay. Whatever I mean from an interest and what's crazy is like depending on who you think benefits from this trial will also probably inspire your how you feel about people showing up in mass to watch it. There's a few things that are going to be straight up. One if this if the Georgia trial moves forward in Georgia with cameras

and the whole thing. Then forget about whatever. Forget about your soap opera. Do they even have soap operas anymore? I guess they don't. But forget about what you watch during the daytime. Okay, because you know that every single one of the networks will run this thing. Do we agree on that? Two? You know they will two. There are a lot of people would see something like that, and it'll be as though they're watching two

different movies, regardless of what's happening in the trial. The two different movies will be this is great, this is people watching him get justice, and a lot of it's the same arguments. You're here with the mug shot, right, this is it. He'll never be able to the history will always have this bah and then so this will just be the video version of the

mug shot. And then there are other people will be like, this is great because it allows the world to see the corrupt, the political corruption of this prosecutor and elected officials and the martyrsm of Trump. Right, people are

going to be approaching it from all these different angles. So you would agree, ross, you would agree it's gonna be a dumpster fire whatever it is, right, it's gonna be wall to wall coverage it, but it'd be a dumpster fire because everybody wants it while they simultaneously don't want it for all

these different reasons. But then, but then I started thinking, what have been those trials, at least in my life and and also really within the use of the technology, that have captured the public's attention, And so I actually found a list. Now you can break these down in a variety of different ways, but I feel that estimated viewership or viewership based on actual metering, it's probably a pretty good way of what have been the most followed real

life trials in the history of TV. And obviously, you know one, you gotta have a trial with camera too, you gotta have it. And during the time when there's more and more households with TVs, so when there's less households with TVs, if you have a trial from that era, even if it was streamed that and then you had the advent of court chain annel, and I think a lot of people think it probably hit it stride in

the nineties because court TV was a big deal. Right court TV you could go and they'd just be shown they just be showing a court case and if there was a big un everybody was watching it. And I one of my one of my interesting memories, and I'm sure a lot of you probably have your own version of this, is I remember us sitting in school watching the OJ stuff. I remember sitting and I don't remember why I was in that room, if it was pe or it was like indoor practice for football for

the football team. I remember sitting in our wrestling room at the high school in Buffalo, Wyoming and watching the OJ verdict stuff. I remember sitting there watching it, you know, in this room, a padded room. We're all sitting there in the umbros because everyone had umbros back in the day, and they were watching this. Now it was all there were no we had no we had no black students because and not say we didn't have minorities,

you have a lot of Native American and uh and even Hispanic students. But and we just watched it and it was just like okay, all right, all right, can we go to But it was the idea that we were sitting there watching this verdict was crazy. We're watching it in mister Rosen's biology class in ninth grade in Schennected. It yeah, you're I'm assuming that the makeup of your class was a little different because that's generally how people see the

lens a bit. Yes, so you had like some Asian students too, or or was it it was much more UNI because Schennectedy, Schennectady had we have a big minority population. Yeah, I don't know what the percentage is, but I remember looking it up when I don't remember why I looked it up. So so you're sitting there and you're watching it, and and I

think in your age also has a lot to do with this too. You know, there's stories that were written in videos that came out with the OJ verdict of like people that work watching it and you saw different reactions, kind of like the Rodney King thing too. But but with the OJ thing, I remember watching, I'm just like, this is crazy. We're watching some guy in California on trial. I'm just I'm just dumb kid in Wyoming. I'm like I used to play football, Like I had no concept of all

of this. I the dancing Edos, I remember that with Jay Leno, but like I really wasn't plugged in on it. But then I started going, you know what had been the biggest. That had to be the biggest, right, No, it's number eight. All that OJ stuff was number eight. What happened is s connectedy, by the way, did you watching and everyone just went back to business? Or was like class discussion or was

it was did it like ruin the rest of the day. I don't know Ross's screen a call right now again, but my point is like when I found out it was number eight and then I started digging through this, it was pretty eye opening. And I still think that if they're able to get this to go forward in Georgia and it is as exactly as they think it's going to be based on this judge's ruling, this thing will be unhinged. I mean, look, how many people were following what was the the Johnny

Depp and Amber heard thing? Right. I have to admit I watched very little of that, but I know some of our listeners, some of you women, some of our female listeners, just because I see you on Twitter, who were who were very enthralled in this thing. And don't get me wrong, the parts that I did watch, but people like, oh you gotta watch this five minutes testimony or whatever it was, it was bonkers.

And I like, I get the entertainment factor, and I'm not I'm not trashing on anyone for watching it. Do what you're gonna do, but it was that was a very cultish in in the way that people were watching it. That didn't even make the list here. So number ten was Ted Bundy and again comes down number nine Menendez Brothers. How'd you like to be? Uh? Is it Mark Jackson? How'd you like to be? Mark Jackson? The Clippers when you played for the Clippers. So for those of you

don't know, there's a sports card out there for a player. I think it's Mark Jackson who played for the Clippers La Clippers around the time the Menendez Brothers insanity was going on, and in it it's him like passing the ball, but directly behind him seated courtside or the two Menendez brothers. And for whatever reason if he if he have that card, it's very collectible. O. J. Simpson. Number eight again, this is based on people who

decided to, you know, check it out on the television. Number seven Eightolf Aikman, Right. Obviously the Nuremberg Trials were a big thing, man, but you know what they had push up against is a lot fewer people in the US and a lot less people having access to televisions. Now, remember Aikman was tried nineteen sixties, so Nuremberg was its own thing. That's movie footage. Aikman was tried in nineteen sixty, but he was trying they try him in Israel. I think they did in Israel. Yeah, so

a lot of people won't remember that. Here's one I didn't remember, and I was alive for William Kennedy Smith. Does that name ring a bell with any of you? William Kennedy Smith Ross. Do you know who that is? William Kennedy Smith no idea a medical student in nineteen ninety one who, when he visited Florida with his uncle, met a woman. The two went back to his place. Once there, something went wrong and the woman accused him of assault in rape. Yeah. Yeah, no, I saw a

crime documentary on that trial now that you mentioned it. And the uncle with whom he'd been traveling was Ted Kennedy. He's Ted Kennedy's nephew that actually got a ton of cover. Dahmer was at number five, Rodney King at number four, Casey Anthony at number three. Yeah, I would say Casey Anthony would be my top in my top three, Jody Harris right, Stabby Stabby with the boyfriend there and that was but number one. This is this is why our society is doing. Do you know what the number one based on

total eyeballs that they're able to actually calculate. Do you know the number one trial that was watched? I don't know that I believe this, but I guess maybe Lindsay Lohan. What was she even on trial for it? I had to look it up, drunk driving. I think it was her second drunk driving in LA where some dude just tried to commit murder and got propatient, So she should have waited. But yeah, when you look at the

trial, well, didn't cover the same level of crime as others. Drew an immense amount of publicity, especially following Lindsay Lohan reportedly writing profane messages on her fingernail tips. I did I sleep through that? That's great. I'm glad I did. Our society is doomed and I have to think if they do this down in Georgia with Trump, it'll be bigger than that. Maybe he should get a nail tech. Just saying race agic from the Weather Channel.

Sorry, brother just saw. All right, listen, take all the time you want. We're just talking about all, you know, the whole concept of watching trials on TV man and like the Big Ones. And I thought, I just assumed, because it's right in my wheelhouse. I assumed that like Oja was the biggest, right, and it was like nah, nah, he just cracked, just barely cracked the top ten, right,

And Lindsay Lohan with her stupid fingernails and drunk driving one. So I don't know if there's any winners here, but you know what I mean, Anthony, Jody Harris, those are up there, but no Lindsay Lohan. Interesting crazy town man. All right, what's going on? What's going on for our three day weekend? Absolutely beautiful warming trend? Well, I don't I guess beautiful. The heat's gonna come back, maybe a little humidity, but

basically it's gorgeous this morning. It's gonna be tough to find even a cloud

the next few days. Here's your highs low eighties, low eighties, mid uper eighties, and then maybe loadle bid nineties as we get into Monday, and a stretch of nineties that may go through all next week and lots of sunshine, so very little rain, gonna be tough to find anything in the way of cloud cover, and it's gonna get warmer, and right now looks like we've got a stretch maybe ninety plus that lasts through most of the next week. Tropics, although there's a lot going on in the Atlantic at this

point, nothing having any direct impacts. The rip car risks still moderate along the coastal areas, but other than that, nothing maybe until the following week, which some of the guidance is trying to suggest, where we do see maybe something trying to threaten the East coast. So other that case, he enjoy it's gonna beautiful right on through the upcoming all day weekend, but hotter. Okay, well look you can deal with that, especially the part we're

in the morning. If you get a tea time nice and early. I'm just saying, yep, yeah, do it early in the weekend too, because we canna start getting warmer toward the latter part of the week too. All right, thank you, sir, appreciate it. Every one. All right, they're going race aging from the weather channel. Uh oh look at this. Oh no, well, hold on, all right, So I got something we gotta address. We'll do it when we get back, and we'll get your calls. Hang on from the Marty Hampton e XP Studios,

But it also is time for us to check in with our radio buddy to the South Pete calendar mid days w b T. You can stream it on the iHeart Radio app Pete. How are you doing this morning, sir? I'm doing okay. How are you? I'm pretty good guy. I got a little beef with you, bro, and you have a lot of beefs with me. I think I feel like there's a lot of beef in Well No, there was a

lot of beef. One the only the last beef we had was about beef because I'm like, why can't you guys catch a ci right? I do recall that one. Yes, no, no, this is elevated and I feel like you need a reckoning m and like with the W like like yet reckoning. I'm just saying, there has to be a reckoning with you, y'all, because y'all coming for you right now, just like you're coming for me. So it's like, yeah, electorally speaking, but no, yes,

of course I didn't mean anything other than that. Of course, for those of you go on, what's the beef? Is this one of those rap beefs? No, no, those are that was a play kind of Those were the words used by the DNC or the DNC the Democratic Party chair here in North Carolina as they decided to Paul Wellstone the UNC event the other day. And for those you don't know Paul Wellstone, allow me because I lived in Minnesota at the time. Paul Wellstone was a Senator from Minnesota.

He was very popular. Even though he was a liberal guy, he was very popular and I really enjoyed the few times I got to interview the guy. I thought he was a genuinely nice guy, and a lot of these Washington folks are just they make your skintrol. That being said, little moonbatty

for me. But when he was running against Norm Coleman for the Senate race, his plane crashed up in Eveleth, Minnesota, Northern Minnesota, and he died, and the state decided that they would allow a funeral to be broadcast, or they would host a funeral broadcast. They're from the state capitol and it would be televised all across the state of Minnesota. And within about five seconds it turned into a Democrat rally and it was pure politics, and people

recoiled. It was like the healing together thing they did after the shooting in Raleigh last year, where they decided that it was a gun grabber event and

the NAACP started pushing memberships. Some people found that distasteful. That's how I felt watching the UNC thing, because one is sound a little threatening by today's standards, and two, it sounded like they were taking this event and now it's not about the event, but rather it's about individual political goals and super minorities, which is I don't know what that is is that a minority with superpowers? Is that a smaller minority or we haven't a parse? So what's

your take on all this insanity? So, uh yeah, I referenced the well Stone Memorial as well, and for people who don't remember it, just it was unseemly that it was like there, I ran the board for it. Do you know I ran the board for it at the station I worked out in Minnesota. I literally ran the board for the event. Yeah, right, because we had, you know, the President of the United States was there, was George W. Bush. There were Republicans that were there

because this was this was a colleague of theirs. This was one of their you know, friends that died and they were there to honor him. And the next thing, it turns into this partisan political rally. And that's what the UNC rally turned into as well. With you know, you bring in David Hogg from Harvard with the March for Our Lives movement right that got him into the school, You bring him to town and they, you know,

they start whipping up the crowd they've got. According to the press reports, there were six hundred or so people there, and I thought this was very telling and that what was this the I think this was the news and I no, no, this was the AP that reported that the Young Democrats UNC Young Democrats had managed to register twenty four new voters at the rally, twenty four out of six hundred plus people. You you you registered twenty four.

So what does that tell me? It tells me that the vast majority of the people that were there, right were Democrats. And look, this is this is obvious. It's so obvious that only the media can ignore it, right, which is the event is designed because what are we talking about. We're talking about shooting. Yes, but it was a targeted person who knew their victim uh, personal grievance murder, and they are using it in order to agitate their base and to make them feel that they are under siege.

In fact, the Democratic Party chair explicitly says that in her screeching comments y'all where she keeps dropping in the yalls in there, because I guess that's going to attract the rural voters, as I understand it, that's the that's the strategy anyway. Yeah, yeah, so this is the strategy. They're going to appeal to rural voters by dropping the y'all everywhere, and she she's talking

about how they're they're, you know, coming to get you. These people are coming to get you all the time wherever you go in the movie theaters and the libraries and all of this. And I mean, is it any wonder why this generation of kids right now thinks that they're constantly, you know, being hunted. Well, you have a political party that that traffics in this idea. It is the idea that you could die in a mass shooting, that this is a realistic threat to you. It is such a small

percentage of all crime, the vast majority of crime. This is what it just infuriates me about all the coverage of crime. The vast majority of violent crime is among people who know each other. That's the that's that you are more likely to be victimized by somebody you know. And that's what we saw in this case too. Number one, Number two, you're more you're likely to be a victim of murder intra racially, in other words, black on

black, white on white, Hispanic on Hispanic. And when you go outside, no, don't, but don't part posting those numbers online. I saw how that works out right, And yesterday, I actually got a call. There's a fellow that I've known for years here in Mechleberg. His name is Mike Daisley. He was the he was the attorney for the Mechlberg County Democrats, the party, and he calls into the show. I kept him on

for almost a full hour talking about this. And what you realize very quickly in these discussions is that they have a certain list of talking points and when you start walking through them. When you when they start talking about gun deaths, the first thing you need to do is say, okay, well, what is the largest person the largest portion of the gun depths? What is it? It's suicide. Oh I was going to say mass shooters. Oh no, no, it's suicide. Number two is what do you think?

Number two is babies with guns? No sting, that's a good that's a good guest, though, No, this is domestic violence. And then number three street crime. And so that's the vast majority of gun deaths. So when you're talking about how do you reduce gun depths, you have to address each of those cohorts differently, right, because they require different approaches. But you never get that kind of discussion and I tried to get him there yesterday,

and he was either unable or unwilling to do so. The key here is that the different strategies required are do not align with the Democrat talking points on all gun depts. They have to have to lump them all in together because they were advancing a political agenda, a right. They have a prescription that they want and it usually has something to do with limiting firearms in some

way. That's the point for that got them, or you got to groom them more efficiently, like where you eliminate one year olds and you include nineteen year olds and they're like, oh my gosh, it's the kids, and yes, yeah, So you've got to be patently dishonest on that stuff. So at any point did you feel that you were having a breakthrough or at least a moment to coalesce with this individual A LERC Well, I did.

I did, because I said, because you know me, I'm all about solutions, and so I said, look, if we can agree, like, for example, do you want do you want tougher penalties for people who use guns in the commission of a client? If I'm like, throw the book at them. If you're selling guns to prohibit buyers. You are doing other crimes and you got a gun, you use a gun for those crimes. Whatever, I want you prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.

So how about we enforced. Let's start with enforcing the laws on the books and really going after prioritizing gun crimes. But then I had a fellow call in and I thought, actually we had made some progress there because he said he would agree with that, he would like to see that too. And I asked him, well, then can you lobby your Democrat friends and colleagues in the legal field, because like the DA's they're not focusing on gun crimes

and they dropped them. Oftentimes. There's a group here in Charlotte's called Court Watch, and the founder of it calls in. He's like, ninety eight percent of the cases gun crime cases get dropped, so they've just pleaded out. So how like the criminals understand that, and if there's little penalty for

gun crimes, we're going to keep seeing more of it. No, So why can't that be sort of like a first step that we all rally around and say, look, if you're using guns for crimes that we have zero tolerance for that disparity, because then you'll literally get people out making the dispirit of impact argument, right, and like then you'll just want to bang your head against the wall, which I think is really the goal at that point. Now to be fair in Charlotte, you kate, you still can't keep

people from pooping in the streets. So we we did have fun with that audio yesterday and someoneman just trying to take her granddaughter the Discovery Center or whatever. Maybe everybody Discovery Place. Maybe that was the review of the Discovery Place, the homeless way you did that. But yeah, we had a story this morning. I pointed out in California, did you ever do something where you think you misread the headline or maybe the reporter got a word wrong.

And so in this case it was LA gang member on probation for attempted murder crashes into uber kills three people. And I'm like, they mean parole, right, because attempted murder, No, they might proba. Oh my god, yeah he was on probation. And then I regaled the audience of the time I was in high school and was in my buddy's truck and we had

a bottle of wine We're going to a party. And I got a minor in possession and I was like sixteen seventeen and I had to go shovel horse maneuver literally for several many many hours too, and I'm like wine, and then I was pro paisano. It's a basque thing. We had a lot of basque people in Wyoming and whining he stole it from his mom. I don't. I wasn't gonna drink it. I was gonna drink beer. I mean, I wasn't gonna drink anything. Officer, it wasn't in York.

I want a lawyer. Well it wasn't mine, but I was in the vehicle and it didn't matter. But well whatever, Probably it was probably a good thing because I remember. I remember I was like, my life's over. I'm gonna have to go live as a hermit. Right, everything's done on this one. And now I'm like, man, if I wait a few years, I could go out and be really bad at gang member and murdering foes and just get probation, Like I can make a cottage industry out

of it. That would be amazing. I don't. I don't know if you could actually do the gang membering, what with the use of the term foe. Did you just say murdering foes? Yeah? Foes? No? No, No, that's right there, disqualified. Now you are going to come in here and pretend like you have some like you got some street cred on this. No, I'm just saying that's definitely not it. I'm not claiming to have any I'm just saying foes is not one unless maybe, well,

hang on, are you rapping? And does it rhyme with something that got don Imus fired? It? Well, to be fair, it was more than the use of the word hose, and hose is a garden tool as well, So maybe i'd wrap it about that, or I would just mirror most of the the gangster rapper. Hoe is a perfectly acceptable rhymable word. I don't know why we're having beef here. See that's another term I just used, and I used the earl did maybe no cap no cap no

cap? Yeah? I do love. I do love the two people so far that I have seen, and there's only two that have risen in defense of the Democratic Party chairwoman's uh spocastic terrorism. The You know, my favorite game that media plays with Republicans is the defend or disavow game D or D right, where somebody says something you stick the mic in the face of every

single Republicans, they do defend or disavow that statement. So the only two people I've seen you got Gary Pierce, right, who is who's defending the statement saying it's not stochastic terrorism. And what's the name justin Parman or the teachers union, not a union guy at a Charlotte the teacher guy who's saying, you know, this is not stochastic rim And then remember, stochastic terrorism was the term that all of a sudden rose to prominence to describe Republican politicians.

Whenever they would say anything that could even tangentially be connected to any kind of violence anywhere in the world, they would say, well, they obviously were motivated. That violent person or act was motivated by your comments way over here at an earlier time that the attacker didn't even hear. Right. So that's stochastic terrorism, the public demonization of a person or group that then results

in the incitement of a violent act. Right. So I'm just pointing out that what the Democratic Party chair did, by the definition is stochastic terrorism. That the media was super super interested in a mere a few months ago, not just months ago, going back to Palin with her targeted district. Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah yeah so this, Yeah, the term has grown in popularity since Donald Trump and J six and all of that.

So if we're going to be connecting dots, if there's any kind of an attack or verbal assault or any kind of confrontation with any Republican lawmaker, now, then that's what should be connected to. Uh, you know this, these comments from the head of the Democratic Party just on a more I guess

how you process it. And we got about a minute and a half when I saw this story emerging from UNC and there was a lot of info that quickly came out, And of course there were a lot of a lot of people sending the very same tweets over and over with the exact same words from

and and I just cringe at that. But as I try to pass through it, I'm thinking, Okay, faculty member, student, he's in a very high level of student of learning, right, Like, maybe d wasn't cutting mustard and he saw this as the guy who was keeping him from getting the grades or impressing the parents. Could it be as simplistic, is that

or did we just have to go on this merry go round. No, it's it probably is just that they got fer he was at l Yeah, he was at LSU before and they found some review he left of the student Mental Health services where he gave him a one star rating because they didn't help him, he said, And so he obviously was you know, he was dealing with mental health issues. He had been working with this faculty advisor.

They had done research together. He's got a bunch of social media posts that are you know, broken English, but kind of send this vibe that he wasn't getting along with all of his classmates and advisor very well. Yeah, yeah, all right, well, I mean and look how quickly we're able to say, all right, well this is what we'll keep looking. But no, instead others make kay pete, I got a role. I got about five seconds. Thank you so much, sir, Thank you. I

enjoyed it. And we'll be back and see one O six one A them talk five PTI, two stations driving the best in talk. This is Casey O Day and Carolinas Corning News. All right, welcome back eight thirty five here on your Friday and Unfortunately, a little housekeeping I gotta do real quick. But you know, this is this is how you This is how you keep the integrity of the show. If you make a mistake or somebody questions

something, yeah give it a second look, little review. Like like the other day we were talking about the bigger Hole West Virginia thing where I just thought I made up a town name. But it's an actual town name, and we did the due diligence. We've you know, looked it up and checked it out and made sure you were armed with the facts. That's what we do. Yeah, an email here Ross this concerns you, so you know, pay attention. Hi Casey. I listen to your show each morning

and love the banter regarding Alive Garden. While I love they're all you can eat breadsticks and salad, I've never considered them authentic Italian cuisine. My daughter is a trained chef. She's trained both in New York City and Italy, and we are actually Italian, so we know real Italian food. I even found this article about Olive Garden chefs being trained in Italy and then it quotes that in pretheses says they really are not. I thought you and Ross would

find it interesting, have a great weekend. So fact check, yeah, fact check there as to whether they are in fact trained in the Tuscan Tuscan region there. Did they even run that commercial anymore? But the way they run the h do they run the our chefs are trained in Italy commercial on TV anymore? I haven't even seen it. So oh anyway, Oh what is this? Do do? Do? Do? Do? All right? Eight eight eight nine three four seven eight seven four You know it's partially partially

tongue in cheek. So there's that. My headphones having an issue? What is going on here right now? Oh? You made it through the whole show? What are you doing to me? Now? All right? Let me get to Let me get to this, just because I want to have enough time to play all of this. Do you guys see the video of the the guy in Nebraska got pulled over because he was on a hole a bull and he didn't have a horse trailer or you know, livestock trailer of

any sort. Didn't even have a pick him up truck with like the big fencing around the back where you can load an animal in there. I've done that. Yeah, he just had a car and he decided, Hey, you know what, I'm just gonna go ahead and cut literally the rope out of the passenger seat here and make a few other adjustments, and we're gonna tool on down the road and we'll get the bull loaded in there. And he did, and as you can imagine, it drew a little bit of

attention. The officers preced a call reference a car driving into town that had a cow in it. They thought that it was going to be, you know, like a calf, something small, or something that actually fit inside the vehicle. Wait, hold on, I in a place again, the what's that now? The officers preced a call preference a car driving into town that had a cow in it. They thought that it was going to be, you know, like a calf, something smaller, something that actually fit

inside the vehicle. So let me let me get this straight. It wasn't that it was a cow that concerned you. It was the size of the cow. So like, like, a black angus is a lot bigger than one of the other breeds that we have Scottish Highland. Scottish Highlander are smaller. They just they winter better. So if it, like if it was a black angus, you'd be more concerned than if it was Oh, Scottish Highland. I mean, it's a baby calf. Just put it in the

baby car seat in the back right. It's a little cute baby calf. They're not cute? Isn't that how it works? They're not cute? And what's that? Well you gotta have but you know you gotta have him in the in the reverse facing too, right for the maximum of course. Yeah, okay, I was. It's a little unclear on how that all worked. Yeah, I don't know. So apparently there were size limitations to the proper Is this like when they be fund people because they're four year olds aren't

in a booster seat. I don't know what's going on. Look, the car has clearly been customized, so they pull it over. As a result, the officer performed a traffic stop and address some traffic violations that were occurring with that particular situation. M address some traffic issues, but he's tooling down the road. I'll tell you what what the officer didn't address? Ross. Did you see what was on the front of the car? Uh? No,

I wasn't looking at the front. It was on the front. He is a set of horns you know, like like so like he literally has the carcass of that bull's buddy, do you know what I'm saying? That's his buddy right there, and he's got he's got his So like there's a whole kind of domaresque thing going on here, man, And I'm assuming that's to keep the current live bull in the passenger seat in check because he saw what happened to his buddy, who now adorns the front of the hood.

So what actually happened? Then the officer wrote him some warnings? There were some sitable issues with that situation. The officer shows to write him a warning and ask him to take the animal back home. Well wait, wait, hold on, so you don't want him transporting the cow in the car, but then you told him to transport the cow in the car. I have an immense amount of questions with this, like if you if that did you want him to walk it home? Because it looks like you let him drive

it home. And also, how'd you like to be the guy at the detail shop. They're in Omaha or wherever this was in Nebraska, right and you see this guy coming in the next day with that car. Because I don't even know what the bull was doing the whole time it was standing there. But it let's just say it was filling the back window. I mean, they had to put in a lot of work on this car to fit

this big what two sea bowl or whatever it's called. It looks like like be a baracus with his welding gear work hit on the van right, Like there's like some serious improve I don't know if you want to call it an improvement on this car to fit this stupid bowl in the in the thing, I mean, it's ginormous. It's head of sticking out. It's like on that episode of by five hundred Pound Life where they cut the all the seats

out. They made just count in one seat, right, And but his horns is so big, like if you're driving, if they're driving down a row and there's like a cyclist on the side, there's a chance that that horn is going to take out the cyclist, like Piersome, it's just poking out. Well, how tall is the cyclist things? I think he's kind of up in the air. I'm surprised that car could even carry that bowl.

Yeah, I mean that thing, I don't know, enormous, it's yeah, I mean it's if it probably is an excess of fifteen hundred pounds, but you know, it'll get The thing did look like it was riding a little low, but remarkably didn't look like it was riding a little low on both sides or unevenly, so I don't maybe there was some suspension work done with the with the welding unit, because holy holy cow, no pun intended, right, But sometimes you just got to transport a bull, man,

what are you gonna do? I gotta get a bullet from point A to point B. Got gotta gotta figure out a solution. I love the name too. You won't play the TikTok thing too well, No, but the TikTok thing is the audio just played, but like per piece to get like the name was Howdy doody. Yeah, yeah, yeah, well he's there's a lot of duty, a lot of duty going on too in that

photo. Yeah. I always thought it was weird that we'd name some livestock and not other livestock, Like the bulls had names, but the cows didn't. The only cows got names were the ones that we were gonna slaughter, that we quarantined for two weeks, so they were right next to the barn, and my sisters be like, oh, her name is Sarah, and then she disappear and I'd be like, ah, eat your hamburger, helper, I'll tell you what's going on with Sarah. But like the bulls had

names, the horses had names. But like the rest of the cows and calves, Dad didn't get names. They's got your tags with numbers. Well both the the bulls did too, but they had names. So there you go, Howdy doody. I had to go back home all right forty five where he staged it from the Weather Channel. He can't even what's this country coming to? You can't even crop top your vehicle and all your bull around anymore. Many who would have thunk, I mean, it's uh, it's

you know, it's it's not your grandfather's America. That's all I'm saying. I would agree. I would agree. But that was a big bull. He has a big horns on him, did you see. But what I thought was really morbid, though, is the on the front of the hood there was a set of other horns from another bull who obviously didn't fare as well, right, And I was like, that's gonna be a little disconcerting if you're the bull. Oh exactly, you had your best behavior, man,

be like, where am I headed anyway? Yeah? Exactly? All right, well are you gonna where are you headed? By the way, sir? Are you gonna do anything for the three day weekend and so crazy week for you? Yeah? Kind of kind of an easy one. Got a four day weekend actually, so I won't be here Tuesday. Yeah, well you know why. We've got Clemson at Duke Monday night. Say, I'm aware, I've heard, I've heard of little something about this and then

certain professional football team kicks into action next week two. So yeah, that's us next Sunday nights. I'll be off that Monday also September eleventh, so you know how it goes a football season and me the big games, you probably won't see me the next day most of the time. But yeah, full slate now this weekend and a few games last night tonight. In the Southeast, I mean, the weather is going to be beautiful, not only here across the state, state's plural. I mean wherever you're gonna be down

in Athens. Beautiful weather tomorrow, lots of sunshine r and everybody could warm up here. Upper seventies, low eighties today and tomorrow, probably closer to ninety on Sunday and Monday, Monday, we could actually in the triangle sneak

into the mid nineties. Same thing for Tuesday. Tuesday may be the hottest stress or the hottest day of this stretch, but we're gonna get out of this area high pressure, get it pretty close to it, and we're gonna have unseasonably warm weather and dry weather through at least Thursday of next week. I'm gonna say, starting easily on Labor Day, lots of sunshine, lower to middle nineties probably through Thursday, and overnight low is even starting to come

up. So those early tea times you mentioned last hour, Casey, yeah, they won't feel so nice by Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, when we're back in the seventies for low temperatures. And if you are headed Monday night to the Duke Clemson game, beautiful weather, it's gonna be clear, calm. I'm probably gonna fall after highs in the mid nineties. Yeah, I'll probably still in the eighties at game time. But no rain, not even a chance of rain. If it rains, I don't know. I just

I'd be shocked because right now it looks like a pretty confident forecast. If you guys lose the duke, are you gonna like riot or what's gonna happen if they do lose the duke? That's probably it. I just I'll say two things. One, we don't know about the offense yet with Riley as o c all right, so that's the big question. And I'll just say this, beware the Clemson defense. I think they're getting some chatter. Are they're getting some chatter? But you know there they are going to be ed

is going to be probably their highlight this year. I really think so. It's gonna be one of the top defenses in Yeah, I just realized how late I am. I thank you, sir. Have a good four day weekend. Yeah, soon, we'll see you Wednesday. Jeff Bellinger. Next, Hang on your Day, Smarter one FM Talks and News Talk five w p TI more with Casey starts now. All right, Jeff Bellinger, Bloomberg News Quick Shot. What's up? Oh wait, hold on stupid phone.

There we go, all right, Jeff, fire away, sir, Okay, Casey, what you really we need to know is that job growth was a little better than expected last month. Labor Department reporting this morning that one hundred eighty seven thousand workers were added to payrolls in August. The agency revised its July data downward to show that one hundred fifty seven thousand jobs were added for that month. The nation's unemployment rate jumped to three point eight percent.

It was at three and a half percent in July. And I'll skip down to one final lightem Casey. The Taylor swift eras Tour concert film won't hit the theaters until October thirteenth. AMC Entertainment said this morning the film has already set a record for advanced sales. Casey, No, I'm gonna enough to wait. What will I do? All right, Jeff, have a good long weekend. We'll talk tuesday, sir. Okay, sounds good. YouTube. Take care there you go, Jeff Flinger, Bloomberg News. All right,

let me just real quickly. I want to put a message. Ross and I talked about this off the year, so I think you're on board with this too. Mummy scientists, stop sending your press release. You guys chicken littled yourself right. All these people study like ancient Egyptian mummies because I see this, uh pharaoh's wet nurse. Scientists are are able to now recreate the smell of the era from and this particular mummy was a nurse to a

pharaoh and they were able to use some sort of science or whatever. And then they're gonna tell And the reason I'm snake bit on this is do you remember when they made this big deal? And I think they like they even like did a teaser on it. They're like, we, yeah, it was a big production. We've been able to recreate what the pharaohs sounded like, right, his voice, and so tune in and we're gonna play the pharaoh's voice. What you know what he said? And what did you in

your mind? What did you picture you were going to hear ross when you when you should old bow to me or something, you know, like something. Yeah, well there's and there's some ego there obviously if you're a pharaoh, because I mean, look at where you're buried, like some sort of basse in the voice, maybe like some mum rattle, mum, something intimidating, you know what I mean? All right, all right, all right? And then uh, it was this which is like somebody who's trying to

learn how to use a dope call. I thought it was like him, like poking his sister in the car or on the chariot. Oh, we ran over Spartacus, So no, I don't care. We're gonna recreate with this. Let me guess. Let me guess what they smelled like in the desert, like sweat? Right? Is that? Is that? Like sarcophagus and tomb death? So stupid we get odors? You know, it's like like one of these pretentious wine snobs or they're like, I'm getting odors of

sweat, and well, what is that? That's sand? Get some sand? I don't believe you dot after this that you open the sarcophagus and it smelled like the authentic Italian cuisine of Tuscany? Did it really? Okay? You learn nothing from your fact check? I see you know. I'm not gonna comment that buffoonery. I will not sanction this buffoonery. He had evidence you had actual food with Tuscan writing on right. I saw that yesterday,

So good for you. All right, we'll see you tuesday. Everybody, stay safe, have fun,
