And yet up do you guys have no idea how fired up Ross is. I don't know if it's because it's the last show before vacation. But we got we got, we got disrespected. Man, could you say we officially have beef? Now? We got beef. Now I believe I'd beef for a while. We got the I just maintain and keep the beef, you know, below the surface. Ross's Ross's first to arrive. So when when he gets in, whatever is is right. It could be a computer on

fire, It could be a homeless dude sitting right outside the doory. You go to walk in at and or or this morning where for whatever reason they went, well, I shouldn't say for whatever reason, like I unders stand the reason why you'd go. And you decorate the studios, right, your little Christmas, a little Christmas decoration, little Santa, little Frosty, the snowman, Ho ho ho, all that good stuff. But not all of our radio stations have live morning shows. That's just that's the that's how,

that's how radio is. So or they have live radio, they have live morning shows. But like you know, like Bobby Bones, if you listen to Bobby, I mean love Bobby bones. You should listen to us. You can catch his podcast or whatever. But you know, that's a thing. So other than salespeople walking down the hall, there's nobody who's imbued with the Christmas cheer specifically in a morning situation in that in that studio, right, obviously we have you know, live local folks other than that. But

this morning they ran out of Santo's and Frosties apparently. Do you think that's what happened? Do you think they started the loop over on the G side of the building and then went, oh man, we're out of Frosty's. I don't know. So we can't put it any in Casey your Ross's studio, you know, because I love we love Christmas and the holidays. We've mentioned it before, right, We're in the middle of the two hundred days of Christmas at the Hayes family compound, you know, right. Thing.

Yeah, Christmas tree has been up since September. We're very excited about it. We still have five more trees to go. We'll do that, you know during the Thanksgiving vacation coming up next week. Yeah. And so I come in and I'm like in the lobby and there's Christmas is up and there's a tree and there's right candy canes, and I'm like, oh, this is fantastic, right, And I go, I we're going in the kitchen and e there's candy. Where are the candy canes? But just they're they're

fake decorative plastic. Oh not real right? Right? So this you know? Yeah? So then I go in the kitchen and you know, I get everything ready for everyone else because I'm very giving and caring, and I fill up the carreen machine and I get everything set and I throw all the trash that's on the table, which I do every morning because people are pigs. And so I'm getting ready to go busy. They're busy, man,

they're really busy. Walk out of the kitchen, I look at the one studio and there's a little sanna and a frosty in the studio window outside of the rail and I'm like, oh, that is great. And I look down the hallway and there's another radio station with a Sanna and a frosty in the window, like, oh, it's a beautiful tiss the season. I look over it hasn't gotten to that yet. Yeah. I look over at the giant abandoned studio. I know the one. You're four windows and it's

centerpieces, the centerpiece of the studio. In each of the four windows of this abandoned studio, there is a frosty and there's a senna. I look down the hallway. One more studio, frosty in the senna. There is one studio. Why I take it back? There's two studio. There's but one one station. Right, there's two studios, my studio and your studio. Yes, two windows. M no frosty? Uh oh no, Santa? Well there is now, I mean there is now. Yeah, marry

freaking ho ho. Could I go to the gianta Banness studio and on the one corner, I take the right, I take the one Santa. So in that window there's still a frosty. And then I go around the corner and I take the what I say they, I take the one frosty. So no, jes right, So there is still you know, something in each one of those windows, and I put them in my window. Damn it? What about? What about it's this discrimination? What about my window?

That's either you're gonna do it for yourself, buddy, there's what happened to Merry Christmas fall? Or something with which station where, specifically, which morning show has been campaigning to get the rolly Christmas Parade still on with actual floats. Who has somebody on from the actual right, the people that put on the We had it two times, multiple occasions. Yes, yes, yes, yeah, Jennifers, she's very nice. Yeah, that's a Christmas

and tomorrow. By the way, who loves Christmas not the holidays? Christmas with these giant seasons, greeting, giant capitalized christ Christmas so much that we take two weeks off in December? Huh ross. Actually every year, you guys don't know this. He kidnaps a baby, he doesn't keep the baby, right yeah, I'm not like gods, I'm like pals. Yeah yeah right, no he And when when Christmas is done, boom, here's your baby back? Right yeah? I mean I common say for you for it.

And even though you're stricken with grief because you're like, where's my baby and you've just been a wreck, once it's explained to you your baby was utilized as part of the Hayes Compound Live Nativity, live action Nativity scene. Now it's bragging right now, that's baby's gonna write a book, right ch Chains specifically, that's why we chose not to live in a neighborhood with an HOA. Because Christmas comes around we have our live action Nativity scene and like

the Hoa people be like are those real goats? And be like, come on dude, what yeah, yeah, because why even do it if they're not? You know what I'm saying. My window is now very fast,

it's very festive over there, yes one show you know what. I'm actually surprised because the old Ross, if I could for just about the Old Ross would have taken all of the Santas and all of the Frosty's and you would be unable to see out of your window right now, right, But I'm more disciplined now, I'm more reserved, right, you know, I stopped drinking, so I've been celebra going on for five years. So yeah, you didn't even put the sand and frosted. It look like they're doing something

wrong. So I'm an adult now, Really, can I test that real quick? So? Uh, I don't know if you guys know the current speaker of the House, his name is Mike Johnson. I don't have it up there anymore. But let me try that again. Let me test your let me test your maturity level this morning. Uh. The current Speaker of the House, his name is Mike Johnson. More mature, Huh? All buttoned up? Okay, small slippage, noug No. You literally should have

taken all of the Santa's, all of them, every single one. Just have it looks like you have a Santa frosty army ready to march on whoever's leaving crap on the table in the break room. Why do people do that? The trash cans right there. I know it's right there, and it try to me nuts because it'll be like good food. You don't have to physically. You don't have to physically step anywhere. You could be standing at

the table. If as long as you're on the left side of the table, grab whatever's on the table, swing your body, pivot your body not even a full forty five degrees probably, and immediately pop drop it into a trash can. That doesn't you do? You don't have to open it to

do anything. Yeah, wakes in a few weeks ago and there was bags and bags of hamburgers and cheeseburgers is left out all night, which when those are in the fridge in the morning, good I'm just going to assume when it comes to the Christmas decorations that they did buy a certain amount and they ran out and they said, oh man, we don't have enough, and we're going to bring it in more tomorrow and decorate the rest of the studios. You think that, I think that has to be mean, Why else

would you not? Sounds like you're the one who is being a bit unreasonable right now. You know what I'm saying. Oh I'm saying. I'm saying. Listen, I'm looking positive, glass half full, right, Okay, Yeah, you committed theft. I mean not now, I didn't you know.

I just you looted everywhere basically the dude in the CBS, and you're the reason why everything we're going to come in after the vacation and all the headphones are going to be in a case with a key and you got to hit a button, So it would be looting if I took the creations home. I mean, aren't you gonna do that after the show? I mean I was considering it. Yeah, okay, right, but I mean I haven't done it yet. Okay, that's fair, that's fair, all right?

So uh ho ho ho and all that stuff that's the morning. So far Ross's Ross went and he he repurposed. I was gonna say, luted, We'll go with the repurpose. He repread them around. So now this Christmas decorations in every window except yours. Except I was gonna say, not every it's the it's the I have to I have to pull out the meme from Princess Bride right about you using words and stuff. So AnyWho, all

right, so yeah, that's how our day started. But we only have uh, we only have the one show and then it's a week's vacation. So you're not You're never gonna you're not gonna get us down, So good luck. All right, six seventeen coming up on the show. Well, you know what, let me do this. Have you ever thought that maybe someone's leaving the trash because they know it drives you nuts? Thank you, Boston, Boston, Paul. Is there a season in which you're not contankerous?

Right? I know that this is your favorite time of the year because you get to scream at kids at the end of October and hoard meat products on Thanksgiving and I'm assuming just get blasted on Christmas. But you know, some of some of us are some of us are trying to keep a positive spirit about things, even those of us who don't have any decorations in their window, even following a repurposing. So think about that and we'll be back. Hang on. Oh all right, Roz, I figured out the secret

on my next channel. Log in. You want to log in? You want to try to log in five times, and then on the fifth time, it will launch your pen. I am so glad that we have a constantly evolving should I put it, constantly evolving security apparatus around these parts. So all right, good morning everybody. It is six twenty three k COO Day Radio program. Dude, did you see did you see the big sports

stories rock in the sports world yesterday? And that's a bit of a bit of tongue in cheek because I mean, yeah, you had an NFL football game last night. I started to watch in fellow sleep. I didn't even see what the final score was. It was pretty lopsided or it was pretty sad at happen. I know the Ravens won, and I think Joe Burrow is out for a while with a hand in like wrist injury or something. Ew. That's not good. I know he hadn't like thrown the ball to

anybody for like half of a football game. Okay, well it ended up thirty four to twenty. Good in this I saw somebody posting it, so it isn't the second. So I I it with like six minutes to go. In the second there was like ten. It was like that was like ten, yes, ten to seven or something. So then they just went crazy. Okay, all right, that's when I conked, what were you saying. I saw somebody on X they were like, oh my god, sources close to me telling me that Joe Burrow is going to need to have

his thumb amputated, and people freaked out. Yeah, but he's got three hundred million dollars, so you can get a new thumb. Man that would suck. You got three hundred three hundred mill cooling in your account, and now you don't have to work, right you go, I mean, we already know what you would do with it. You've documented the journey on the show and it's it's uh, it's would tear the world asunder. But we'll see what he does. No, no, no, no, So that

was that wasn't even one of the big stories. So the two stories. I'll let you pick which one you like more. You see the Little Wayne story, the rapper Little Wayne, who is absolutely incomprehensible. Apparently Skip Bayless tasked him as one of his guys to do sports analysis, and it's so bad. It's good. Do you know what I'm saying? And I was laughing my bad because the other panelists that are on there are like, I

don't know what he's saying. I don't know what he's talking about. So that was one, but the one that I was laughing my butt off is the Carissa Thompson. Do you know who Carissa Thompson is? You've heard the name a thousand times even if you don't know who that is. So Carrissa Thompson for years and years and years was the let's go down to the sidelines and talk to Carissa, right, and then she'd have some little anecdotes, some little story back. I talked to so and so and they like blueberry

pancakes. Right. That was her whole gig, that was her job. That was that was what she did. So why are people losing their minds because she did a podcast? Or no, she was I guess she was on Twitter when she said, and then she was on a podcast. Yeah here we go, uh Chris A tom here? Yeah, no, no, this is this is what it is. So Thompson admitted to just making

up the reports. Not all the time, but a lot of times she quote would get distracted and then failed to interview a coach or forgot if for her did interview the coach and forgot what they said since she just made it up. Yeah, she was on the podcast was Barstool Sports. Quote. I've said this before and I haven't been fired for saying. As I'll say it again, I would make up reports because you know, the coach wouldn't come out at halftime, or it was late, I didn't want to screw

it up, or I didn't remember what he said. So she's sort of like the rest of the media. It's great, and she's just like, what what do you want? And she points out she goes look, and so when I make it up, I say like, hey, talk to the coach and he said we need to get better on third down and not turn the ball over. What coach is going to get mad? I said that. He said we're not going to turn the ball over. That's a good point, right, Yeah, Belichick's I got a rusher in the third

quarter going. I never said that I think we should turn the ball over, which is apparently his strategy this year. So so you got incomprehensible. And by the way, I got no hate for Lil Wayne Man. And actually I've watched interviews with that dude. He's a pretty grounded guy. And by the way, he's not a fan of this woke stuff. He's like, look look at me, look at me. I'm a specimen. And somehow I made it American dream baby, And then the ESPN chicks like,

yeah, I just made it all up. What do you want, flavor? It's bow time your day Smarter one O six one FM Talk and News Talk ninety four to five w PTI more with Casey starts. Now you do this. I know some of you are because you got you got more life experience. But I want you to I want you to harken back. I want you to harken back to I don't know, sixty three sixty four,

nineteen sixty three, sixty four, Okay, remember the time. A lot going on, obviously, especially a lot going on in the in the Southern United States for sure, for sure, But even with all of that going on, could you fathom large contingents of young adults publicly espousing how excited they were to truly understand and I show solidarity, I guess would be a way to describe it. With Pearl Harbor being bombed, like could you can you

imagine that wrinkle in history as being a thing. And I don't mean some some outlier, right, some you know, craze protester. I don't even mean necessarily somebody who may have roots with Japan or Germany or any of the acts as in Italy, right and feeling as though that they have to show out necessarily. And don't get me wrong, there were Remember there were Nazi groups prior to US entering World War two, Right, we had we had people here in the in the US who were formulating Nazi parties, right,

They they dug what was going on. But I'm talking just the people you passed in the grocery store on the street to go to college with your kid coming out and being like, you know what you know? Bomb and Pearl Harvard. That made a lot of sense. I understand it. I can't believe they weren't barging oil with a bunch of monsters, or maybe you're on the Roosevelt did it to get us in the word whatever, But like that just sounds so odd, right, You couldn't you can't fathom that. Well,

you would have the same. You would be as perplexed as I would have been if you'd have told me on that the day after nine to eleven, where I had not slept, that happened, went right into the studios. I was doing afternoon at the afternoons at the time, so I normally didn't get into work until around nonish, and then i'd work until about eight or nine at night, and I went in obviously I got a call and

everybody went in and as I lived in that radio station for days. Man, And if you'd have told me that in twenty some years, a bunch of people who were approximately about the same age I was at the time, right, I'm twenty, I'm freshly minute, I could finally drink a beer. Not that that stopped me before going, hey, you know what, yeah, yeah, I get that, that's we deserve that. It would

have been unfathomable. And I mentioned this yesterday on the show, and I gotta tell you, I didn't watch a ton of the videos and I saw trending. I'd dug into this yesterday. I assumed that there was going to be some alliance via heritage, like my family's from Gaza, or we have

family members over there, right, that that deeper personal connection. But the sheer volume of people who have no connection to the region who were expousing the brilliance of Osama bin Laden's letter to America on social media was growing, and it grew exponentially just in you know, the last forty eight hours, to the point where social media is like, yeah, this is probably not a

good look. People running around and expousing this, and to some extent, I don't know, maybe it is so that you can catalog all of these individuals to make sure that they never work for you, but it was it's damn rampant man, and it's I not. I'm trying to think of another situation, another and and Pearl Harbor's the I guess the best one I could come up with were people, yes, who probably in many cases weren't alive or weren't old enough to really register what was going on at the time.

Who who who were are pushing this garbage? I mean, listen to this this morning I read Letter to America, which is Osama bin Laden's letter to America explaining why he attacked America. This is how, as I said yesterday, chae Gevara ends up on shirts, dorm room posters, all of this, and it's it's, it's, it's it's much worse, obviously, because I will say that didn't directly impact us, because you know, Cuban missile crisis, all that stuff, but you know there was a certain level of

it once removed not here kins and I am ashamed to say that I not only have never read this letter, but I didn't even know this letter existed. It's wild and everyone should read it. If you haven't read it yet, read it, however, be forewarned that this has left me very disillusioned. And I feel the same exact way I felt when I was deconstructing Christianity. I feel a little bit just confused, like I have entered into another

timeline. What is this now? And I want to say this, whether it is Christianity, whether it is the motivations of an individual who decided that we were everything that was wrong with the world and something had to be done, and he did whatever that you should I encourage you, you should read this, But if you're such a vapid piece of garbage that you are able that you can then divorce yourself from the reality of what that message was attached

to. And and you feel like you just stumbled upon a really good book you want to tell all your friends about How did you get so convincible? That's what I want to know. How did you get to the point where because I, you know, I could get into the the rigors of the

education system, which I truly think are about teaching kids to learn. Right, I think the most important thing you're going to be taught is not pie or prepositions or you know, dates and times of historic events, but rather you're going to be cultivated into somebody who is hungry to absorb information, and you're going to have the skills necessary to use that to solve problems. And uh and not all you know, some problem observe famine, and some are how do I get this? Uh? You know, how do I make

this paper readable for folks? Right? You know they're not all the same, but it is that same base of learning that goes in And I feel like today it's a it's just creating a sponge, and not a good way, because you also want to control what it is you're you're putting in there. So if you just wave something something shiny in front of them, they don't have the necessary skills to to contextually understand that, because right we we

divorced of context when we started going. You know what, I don't think that school should be named after Abraham Lincoln. I don't think that's not right. He was He was a mean, old white dude. Yeah he did this thing, but he just he did it because and then you know, insert whatever the reasoning is without understanding you know, the context of the time in which it took place, or any of the other things that we've seen. So this chick picks up what is It's not a very long thing.

I've read the damn thing. I didn't find it compelling. I found it a view into what I guess I already knew, which was there are groups of individuals, and there are a lot of them who think like that and and and view us and and view others who do things differently as everything that's wrong with the world. And rather than being among those going, all right, they suck And I'll never interact with them. This was the guy who goes now they need to cease to exist. And that's part and parcel of

the training as well. Once you, once you, once you were to the point where your political enemies not just need to be conquered in you know, in the halls of Congress or at the polling place, but rather exterminate it from this planet. I don't know what I can do for you, And yeah, so go read it. So I just read a letter to America, and I will never look at life the same. I will never

look at this country the same. I will never please read it. And if you have read it, you're literally the hitler made a lot of good points. Person, You realize that, right you are You're You're Osama bin Lad made a lot of good points. That's you. You're the joke, You're the meme. And we know this because you produced the sizzle reel to prove it. Let me know if you are also going through an existential crisis in this very moment. I can't, I just can't anymore. Ross.

Do you ever read the uh bin Laden letter to America? I don't know if I have. But what's what's surprising, well not surprising to me is you could tell these people have never really thought about how historical events. You know, it's a chain of events and one thing happens because of another, and there's things are nuanced and there's different perspective coming from different people, and it's like they're shocked to be like, what did they I just like you

said, most of these people weren't even born. They weren't even born during nine to eleven. It's one thing. It's one thing like when I just I mentioned briefly when I was talking about Pearl Harbor about there's no historical perspective here. There's been no thought from them about historical events and how what leads to what right? Right? Right right? And apparently it all starts at

this letter. They're like, oh, well, he wrote these letters, he made these points, and it's so frustrating, and it's it's the it's the product of years and years of brainwashing, right because everything is America's fault. Everything is the fault of capitalism, and America is the reason that everybody else sucks. And is yeah, we were hoarding all that we were greedy, hoarding all that oil. Man. We I mean, what do you

expect them to think. Of course, of course, their first thing they're going to fall back on is, oh, well, it's America's fault. I I appreciate the record being. I just hope that it's an easily searchable database. That's what some of these you know, these groups driving billboard trucks around colleges. Good for them, got no problem with it. You should

just be cataloging this stuff. Just create a search engine, right, type in, type in somebody's name, and up pops a video that may and and by the way, it also is a good way to also understand how people's thinking evolves. Do you think that that let's go with the first chick? What does she look like, little white girl? What twenty one, twenty two? Maybe? Yeah, maybe a little bit older, maybe a little bit older. Do you think when she's thirty five, maybe has kid

or too, is married? Is do you think she Do you think she processes things to say? I don't. I hope maybe I know. My thinking in my perspective has completely changed since I was at the end of my early twenties. Yeah, completely changed. Like you mentioned, you would have all of the Christmas things in your window in your twenties and they would be in weird positions meant to creep out folks. But no, no, this is uh, this is where we sit. Man. So I'm sorry.

Welcome to bummer Friday. But don't worry. We do have some other stuff. Some of it's a bummer, some of it's not. We'll chat with Pete Callen or excuse me, Pete. Is that how we're pronouncing his name now? I mentioned that to him yesterday. He seemed to think that that was correct. So yeah, Peta, well it sounds like petty, but it's Pete Calendar. He'll join us eight oh five to talk about the governor's name change and all the rest of this. So we'll see if he read

the Osama bin Laden letter and is now on Team of America. So I've never read the letter, but I can tell you, but I can imagine what he would write in the letter and why he'll write what he wrote in the letter. But it doesn't mean you can take out the lives of two thousand innocent people going to work that day for thousand, three thousand, yeah, or two or two for that matter. Do you know what I'm saying right? That's I don't I don't agree with them, and uh and boom,

I'm going to murder just these two people? Is still that should be abhorrent here in America? But good god, man, what do you do? You know, you get the holidays coming up? Can you imagine being one of these idiots relatives? Right? And you know that Clarissa not I'm not picking I don't know, I'm not picking on any Clarissa's just the first

name that popped my hand, know that chick's name. Can you imagine your niece Clarissa's coming over, right, and you're all you can think about is that time your father, her grandfather stormed the beaches of Normandy or or had to swim for eight hours with sharks around, waiting to get rescued because his destroyer was sunk. Right, and she's gonna come over and want, you know, extra wine or whatever. Oh, that's got to be maddening, man, Just mad. I saw a headline yesterday it was like how to

talk to your crazy right uncle? And Thanksgiving? About letter to America every stop stop now. Now it was satire, but it was a valid point. Was that a battle on being one? I don't know if it was Babylon being something like that, but it was a good point. It was like, yeah, it probably is going to be a headline at some point. You know what. You asked Clarissa to do the prayer and then she just reads the letter and then you go, I don't know, go bomb

something because it's apparently so life changing. I didn't have that impact on me to your point. It was a lot of Yeah, that's what I kind of figured. He's his beef was among other things. All right, it is six fifty kc O day radio program. Hang on. He is on w PTI and the Triad one six one FM Talk in the Triangle. Oh wow, wow, wow wow, sir no, I need to warn you against this because it's Friday. It's the day before a week's vacation, well

at least for us. Ah. Now, you can't apply critical thinking to this, so Chad wrote, he said, hey, in the letter, bin Laden says that the American people are guilty by association because they voted for the elected leaders. Which is true. That is that is that is part and parcel of the argument there and justifying my terrorism's fine as long as it's some sort of hostile oppressor without any context. But then Chad, you you

make the fatal mistake of then analyzing it with the current situation. And he goes on to say, he says, by that logic, wouldn't that make the people of Gaza responsible for Hamas and what is happening? Now? Some would look at that and go, that's a fair point, right, But you're not. You just don't get it, sir. You can't take that next step. You have to digest it at face value and believe what it says. You're not allowed to then go, well, wait a sec,

what about this point, because now you're doing critical thing. You're doing what literally we used to be taught in school and what this chick claim should be doing, which she says she's deconstructing Christianity. You're deconstructing it. And sometimes when you deconstruct stuff, you realize that the total foundation of it's filled with the termites. You know what I'm saying. So don't make that mistake of logically thinking about it. Just go along to it, along and say hello

to Clarissa at your Thanksgiving taking. I'm sure it'll be fine. Welcome. It is seven oh seven year on the k c O Day radio program Friday edition, day before a week long vacation. That's why we appeared that we might actually be a decent moods. So enjoy right ross, you're traveling, you plunking, you uh, going up Mount Everest? I mean plans. No, we're gonna be staying at home for Thanksgiving dinner, enjoying the week off. But for Christmas looking forward to we will be going to Louisiana to

the in laws. So that'll be a two week yeah, yeah, so prepare yourselves for that. I always love how these two are so close together, because we'll do the one week and people are like they just got rescued off a lifeboat. Oh, don't do that again. It's like we're gonna break your heart in three weeks. So there you go. Oh damn it. I just dude, did you see the video of the chick losing her mind on Mount Everest? Oh? I gotta find yes, I have?

You did see that? I don't know is that new or not. I just stumbled across it yesterday and I was kind of not really paying attention. I had not seen it before. All Right, so this this this chick, she's uh, she's going of Everest, and that there is there's a wind event and some other stuff going on, and all of a sudden, you see a body goes sliding by, and then another, and she starts having a full on huff and puff panic attack, which is really bad because

she's having to use oxygen. She's so high up and she is unable. She is Nobody told her. Nobody informed her that Everest there's bodies everywhere. In fact, some bodies were so famous, like Green Boots, who was a He was an Indian climber who died decades ago, although I think now his body actually ended up moving and that it's not there, but it was used as a navigational tool, right to let you know because you know the path. Obviously when you got windswept snow tends to not be visible after a

very short period of time. So people would literally use the body of this dead climber from India because of his green boots he had as a navigational tool. And nobody told this chick that there were dead bodies on Everest. So not only did she see some, but they started moving positions because that's what dead bodies do. They go with the flow. And she loses her mind. If I was gonna climb Mount Everest, don't you think you do a

Google search first? Right, I've not like Ross, You've never wanted to climb Everest, right, you never seriously considered the idea, of course not. Come on, okay, but you knew there were dead bodies on Everest, right, Well, I just assume that the you know, the community there at Mount Everest would clean up their neighborhood. It's gross, you know, it's not microplastic. You know what I mean? I mean to remove the body, No, of course, I mean that's that it's a big

achievement to climb Everest because people die doing it. It's so dangerous that the day there's such inherent danger to even collect the bodies, they don't even do it. Right. Oh, she has just a meltdown, man, just an absolute meltdown. I'm gonna see if I can find it and I'll tweet it. I don't know if you already said it. I was busy on social media here doing fair important show things. Yes, but sometimes I mean, they don't remove the bodies, right, they use them as markers.

That's literally what I was. Yeah, yeah, yeah, that's what I was saying. Yeah, yeah, green Boots. I was giving the example of green boots was was a was a waypoint. So I imagine that's like if you meet the when you get to the dead body with the green boots, you've got an X you know, so far up the mountain. Well, it's just what it is is confirmation you're on the trail, because the trail immediately gets you know, those footprints don't last a moment with snow and

wind. So yeah, yeah, And I have to think too that that's something they talk about down at the bottom. Right when you're a base camp, they're like, all right, we're gonna hike to green Boots tomorrow. Did she think that was a rock formation? Yeah? This is why you gotta ask what do you mean by green boots? Is it? Is it a rock formation that looks like boots and has what limestone? What is that? No, that's a dead Indian hiker. He's got green boots on.

And at that point you need to go you know what, I don't think this is for me. I'm gonna go find that the the Doctor Strange place down in Catman do and see if I can get on the Wi fi. They have a password on that. It's easier there, man. He opened up the portal and just go to the top of Everest. Well that's cheating you could could then could you really say it? It takes a lot of work to be able to open that portal, though, does it versus uh

going up Everest? I mean doctor Steven Strangers took your hand, man, you took in your hand with your ring on. Like half the movie he spun his hand and nothing open over seventy five percent of that movie. Finally, boom, the gate opens. It took a while. I saw somebody say. I saw somebody say that they the Mary Sue. They were on the Marry Sue kick. They're like, get, I can't believe you call Captain Barble Mary Sue. This guy just doesn't know anything about Eastern mistressism.

And within an hour he's only to please. But there he's able to portal and contemplate one hundred possibilities. That's not an hour, that's an hour of movie time. But also that's a hero's journey, yes, because he goes from being really rich and greedy and self big a hole. Yeah yeah, this is the power to his hands and his job and he becomes unemployed. And then you got to go talk to the law and Order detective takes them

forever to get those powers. There's a journey there. He just some would say it's an arc, right, yeah, like that the movie doesn't start right with him like in the doing brain surgery and just opening and opening up a portal to fix the dude's brain. Now I read I read an article and they were talking about all the male characters that should be then called Mary Sus because it was just some bitter feminists and it was doctor Strange. Superman. Now, to be fair, Superman was a bit op from the get

from the get go, but there was a journey there. If he catched me a drift, there was a journey across base. You know, I might even give that to you. I've always felt Superman was just he's boring because he's so op, right, But like every other that was on there, Batman was on there. But Batman was on there because not because he developed all of that and you know, stole from himself to end up in that Chinese prison spoiler, but rather he had the money so it was inevitable,

so it doesn't count. And I'm like, that's the whole journey, right, The whole journey is him watching his parents get murdered. There's still giving up on society. I do like the line in what movie was I think was the ben Affleck Batman where the guy goes like, well, what's your superpower? And he goes, you know, I'm rich, I'm rich. Yeah. Yeah, but there still is an arc there, right,

there's still a thing. That's what so for all these people, Not that we've drifted into this now, but you know, that's what people who look at movies like Captain Marvel or others, they don't even have to be just movies with women or the Star Wars or any of it, where you may touch on an arc, but you don't demonstrate it, and so you don't

people don't emotionally invest in that character. And right, like, you know, you know when you're going to the Batman movie, the Batman's gonna at the end of the day, he's gonna kick the crap out of the dude from taking but you want to see him get there and it needs to be a plausible journey so you can go along with him. And I was totally lost on this writer. She's just like, Dad's awful. Oh how did we get here? I don't even know all right, I got By the

way, there's one sports story I forgot. I said I was gonna do the sports stories. And did you do you guys watch Jeopardy? Ross? Do you guys watch the Jeopardy of you aged to watching Jeopardy? Ah? I haven't watched Jeopardy since Trebek did. Okay, So they had Celebrity Jeopardy this week and they had you know who, Becky Lynches ressa female wrestler. Yeah, she's the man. Yeah yeah, and she's married to seth Rawlins is her husband? All right, so she's on Celebrity Jeopardy. How do

you think she did? By the way, she was playing against mccaullay Culkin and what was the other Rachel Dratch formerly a VESA. I would probably put my money on mccaullay Culkin. But did Becky Lynch Did she dominate or did she do awful? She did not dominate? She know she did not. Was really basically dratching Culkin, going tit for tat on it. But so in Jeopardy, you have sixty questions, right, sixty answers, I should

say, and then you have final Jeopardy. Right, So there's sixty one opportunities to provide an answer, provide a correct answer, and win some money. All right, out of the sixty get to Final Jeopardy. Out of the sixty the two boards, how many questions do you think she got? Right, I'm gonna go with two. Shut up one. She got zero, zero, She got zero questions. So when they got to final When they got to Final Jeopardy, they gave they had to gift her five hundred

dollars, so she had so she had money to bet with. And I'm like, is this am I watching the Is this the real one? Or is this the is the guy gonna come out and a gonna come out a giant hat? Yeah, it's funny, this is funny. Yeah, she got zero, but she got Final Jeopardy. The answer was Salvador Dolly. All three of them got it though unfortunately so for her. Yeah, yeah, she got zero. She was in super negative and then they are they

had to wipe that away for Final Jeopardy. They gave her five hundred dollars to bet. Did she even bet all five hundred? I can't even remember. Yeah, she got zero correct responses through sixty clues, and then somehow got Salvador Dolly the Artist in the final one. But it didn't matter, dude at that point, don't you You have to go with my buzzers broken, although she buzzed in and and answered wrong, So I don't know that

that works. It's got to be like an amalgamation of broken buzzer family emergency, like your kid's texting. You got to fake the broken buzzer at that point, rightly, your hand up? What's going on with this? Don't they? And by the way, I know because I've taken the test, so to get on Jeopardy, there's testing that they do. So we went when me and my buddies went down to go to we went to go see prices right. We did the thing I'm in southern California at school whatever.

We're like, we're gonna go down to watch shows. And we went down to La We went to a type into the prices right, and then we also did the thing where you can go over and do a Jeopardy you can do a Jeopardy test. I did not get cold. Do they not win a celebrity Jeopardy? I guess they just know. Yeah, I think it

was a celebrity Jeopardy. They're like oh are you famous? And then like she's like, I'm Becky Lynch and they're like who and then she like, you know, she drives them or something clothes off the road, like oh you're you're a champion, and the lily yeah, yeah, that's that's her.

I saw this great video yesterday of this toddler. He's got a uh, he's got a fake baby right, like like a baby, like a CPR looking baby thing right, and he's tombstoning it and mom's filming and in the shot you see while this kid's doing that, and dad's like, yeah, yeah, I get them, you also see their real baby sitting in like a little bassinette thing right there. Oh God, Like, I don't know if you should be encouraging that, because kids really jazz that. You're

so proud right now? Oh anyway, yeah, she got zero zero right except for the her final jeopardy somehow, Jamal, go right ahead, what's up this morning? I heard these fine young je fire young women's yesterday, See how they don't believe old saw of Ben Lawton was right? Well. I was reading some books from the Pass and a couple of letters. Then I was reading George Wallace's great fans he did outside the college. Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, I don't tell you, yes he did, he

said, segregation now segregation and casey. I was reading some all good old Southern literature and I came across the writings of Jefferson Davis and General Boulricads. Have you read have you read any of the Bedford Forest stuff? It's straight fire. So yeah, oh yes, I'm talking about the stuff he wrote before he repented and came to Price and changed his life. I'm talking about the old writings when he was a yes, yes, yes, yes,

oh yes. It made me realize that when we go tollow young people to read these literatures, because you got some crazy professors that want to tell them that they okay and what they're thinking is a way to go. When sometimes we need to grow back and read a couple of more things. And when I read nest in bed with Bos and Jefferson Bags and Bull regarded all of the great men, I wanted to realize. I say, well, said Jamal, sir, you need to be like William Ellis. William Ellison was

a great black named wrong slaves in South Carolina. So I'm going out here today and I'm gonna go to a market seek and I pick up a few when I get off work. That's because I read these letters, and these letters of people who wavel in spot people. Are you carassing geese right now? Are you being attacked by geese? What is going on? My dad on tire just went sweat and I got to change my tie. I'll send the right now. No, no, no, you don't have to change

Jamal, You don't have to change your tire. You need to buy somebody to make them change your tire for you, right because over there and change yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, I swear I did you a good biscuit, and Brandon, when you get finished, I am are you just say you're gonna spend it? So you read this and not only has it changed your thinking, now you're the you're the big chicken from Looney Tunes.

I can't remember that character's name because that's yeah fog Horn Leghorn. Okay, all right, all right, ball, I'm telling you man, it's it's a crazy world. Why these people stoop will get more dama and more dama and more dumba and and and they really hot to think about what they really are saying. Go back to well, I got Mall, I get Jamal, I gotta I gotta clip you there because those dumb people are probably in charge of your cellular service too. And it's not sounding good. So but

have a good morning, and I hope the tire thing works out. Okay, we'll get that fixed. Stupid geese dude. I was looking forward to oh or like one mind. But then that's weird because Ross has a thing for the weird chick from Star Trek hang on smart talk all day ninety four or five w P T I in the triad and one six one f M talk in the Triangle. What a crazy story. But it's and as I continually say, not to rub it in, but to remind it's the Friday

before a week's vacation. Pross and I. So it's bounding a little weird around here, all right, Rossa, I want you to put yourself in get your heist hat right. I want you to put yourself in the mindset of somebody plotting a heist. Ocean's love and style heist, right, all right? And job one, you got to identify a target, got to figure it out. You you can come up with it on your own.

You heard some stuff on the street. You went and talked in weird code to that dude in the cafe, and he told you about a guy who's little gooraphobic. Whatever. You you gotta plot it. And I would think that among those that you're looking at are rich collectors, right, people with a lot of money who put together these crazy collections of coins or stay amps or you know what was Paccino's character in Ocean's Thirteen, right, he collected

the five diamond awards, the diamond necklaces. So, and once identified, you plot around it. Does that from from your perspective, is somebody plotting a heist? The sounds who has pulled off multiple hests. It does sound correct? Yeah, oh don't. That's called exhibit A, buddy, don't put that out there. Well, some guys did, and I guess maybe all the good ones were took. I don't know. Apparently a rich Canadian dude whose passion is collecting vintage Velore track suits. And I've laughed, but

wait to hear how much this stuff's worth? Millions millions? Uh. So an example would be like, uh, he has uh, he's got a track suit from he has a tracksuit from Biggie and from pok Man. He has the tracksuit llll cool Jay war Uh when he with that famous Grammy photo with him and Rudy Giuliani. You know, these are hip hop history. I want the red track suit that John Malkovich war in Rounders, and I

would also like the suit that Al Pacino war in. Donnie Brasco, Well, you should have hoisted this, dude, or I guess uh looked for it on the black market, because that's what happened. A crew heisted his vintage Valure millions and millions of dollar tracksuit. I don't even know how do you flip that. I mean, it's a great idea though, because now once the hest is complete and successful, right, you have the value of the Velure track suits. But also you're gonna be dressed like a king for

the rest of your life, like first class all the way. Like that that famous Biggie pic right where he's in the tracksuit. Yeah, the kid the crown on. Yeah, I think that actually is one of the tracksuits. To be honest with you, he has he has one from he has several from Biggie or one from pak It says, I don't know about the Malkovich one. But either way, and it wasn't like he had it just sitting in a closet somewhere. The track suits were heisted as they were being

displayed. He had loaned his collection to a museum, uh gallery in Ottawa, so they hoisted to me, I mean they had to do the whole museum gallery heist things with the collection like that. I was gonna say, it is probably not like in a clause at all, cram together. It's probably like in cased, you know, on a man camp. Yeah. Yeah, it was literally behind glass in some instances. Uh was this dude's name? Well, anyway, I got I got no beef with him.

By the way, look if that's how you want to And I'm laughing because they're worth millions, but I'm not because what you have is worth what people are willing to pay for it. So I was mentioning like having to like reintroduce myself to how sports cards work right now because I saw these videos and I'm like, you pay five hundred dollars for a pack of cards and there's no gum, right, But if somebody is willing to pay fifty thousand dollars

for a a card with who's the Wembiana is that? I guess that's the hot rookie right now. And it happens to have a little piece of fabric with it that has a an NBA logo on the card, which is the thing they do now. And you you could buy a house for it. Then you know what, that's yours. Somebody wants to pay it, that's what it's worth. But that's this guy's whole collection got hoisted. Yeah. For the life of me, I can't figure out what you do with this.

I feel like that's one of those high that had to be dictated by already having a buyer. You know, there's been famous art heist where they never found the art and and it was an insider does a series where they it's pretty fascinating how crime works. It's on YouTube how crime works. It's insider. I don't know if it's business insider or just insider. And they have like they're they're talking to people who were jewel thieves or art thieves or

any of the rest. Like you know, they're all old men now and they've you know, they did thirty years in prison or whatever, and they wrote a book or something and or drug smugglers. I actually watched a couple the other day. They're talking about how for all of you osam Bin Lana letter to America fans, how the entire drug smuggling world changed after nine to

eleven. It was so different. And actually, uh in one of the interviews said that it easily that level of ratcheting up security directly led to a lot of violence, which I believe, yeah, right, because if you can't you know, sneak your way in, you're you'll force your way in to do your business. But that's another topic for another day. And and they but they were talking about how all these heists go down, and the guy was talking about art. He said, because the the interviewer is like,

why would you steal art? Because then you can't just go on eBay and sell the Mona Lisa, right, And he goes, no, he goes, if you steal art, and it's art that nobody tasked you to steal, there's very little return on it, very little returned. Diamonds to some extent, although most are engrave now, so there's problems there. If you steal ashes, heavy and all of this stuff. If you steal the Hope diamond somebody's pride to stealing it, putting in their vault or whatever.

Right, and it inherently loses value of the Hope diamond. If you were to cut it apart, it's still valuable, but much of its value is because one of its namesake, but two of its size. So with art, he said that art. You know, in the in the world of art theft, a lot of the art thefts are based on orders. It's like uber eats man, like some maniacal rich dude wants a painting, and

somebody will steal it, and you will get money. You will get more money than if you just tried to sell it, I guess openly, which is rot with danger. I found that fascinating. So I'm assuming somebody put whoever heisted the track suits up to this, So we need suspects, man and I and I don't know why because technically, I guess he's kind of a coworker because he's on one of the heart stations. Right, who's the who's the guy I'm thinking of? DJ? What's his name? Up?

And uh? And another one that guy? Who is that dude? He's always in a track suit? DJ Khaled DJ Khalid? Right, I don't know anything about him. I don't know they actually tasked somebody. But if I had a list of suspects, I'm profiling only because every time I see him he's in a track suit. If the for if art, if the guy who used to own the Raiders wasn't dead, I'd say go talk to him too, But he's no more. So. Yeah, that had to

That's a sounds like a custom job there, although I don't know. Oh wait, I just realized stage he didn't even have the good He's not even here with us today, is he now? Because he's gotta he's got to have super weekends during an NFL season. Who we got today? I'm sorry, Ken Boon today, Ken? What is with your What is with your guy? Man? I don't know his team's his team's kicked the crap out of everybody last week. What is he worrying about? That's true? Are

looking good? Somebody hoisted a dude's multimillion dollar Vlore tracksuit collection, vintage Valor tracksuits. That's interesting, in like a full museum heist, like they were stealing the Mona Lisa. Yeah, so I'm like somebody put that that. That sounds like an ordered you know what I'm saying, that's just not put it on the market, right, some rich guy really wanted tracksuits, So we're trying to figure it out. And now Ray's not here, so I have questions. So anyway, Ah, so fire away, sir. What

do we got for this weekend? And uh, don't don't hold back. All right, Well, we got a little bit cooler air that's going to move in here over the weekend, have a front that's going to pass through late tonight into Saturday morning. Not a lot of moisture with this front by the time it gets to us, but there is a possibility that late tonight we could see a shower too, but at ahead of it. Today, mix the clouds and sun mild mid seven this afternoon, cloudy, Tonight,

stray shower, late mid fifties, clouds give way to sunshine. Tomorrow, it'll be breezing in a little bit cooler, upper sixties to near seventy tomorrow, sunny, cool load to mid sixties Sunday to finish the weekend. All right, Ken, We'll chat one more time sir in the next hour, and if I could put a little could you try to tell me Saturday morning roughly ten am to about one o'clock. What the weather's going to be for

Raleigh, specifically in the downtown area because Christmas parade. Okay, we'll throw that into the mix for the next one. Okay, all right, sounds good. All right, thank you, Ken boone Weather Channel, and we're going to take a break. Hang on one o six one FM talk at ninety four to five w PTI, two stations driving the best end talk. This is Casey Oday and Carolina's Morning News. Let's go to the email file. Hold on, what is this? Don't care? How's that? Sir?

Is a news story you're not doing? It's Friday, sir, and it's a vacation week next week. What what do you want? I'll get some stuff. Pete Calend excuse me, Pete Calendar's coming up. He's it'll be an eight oh five. And you know what we're gonna do. We're gonna talk about the same stupid stuff. We'll go back, we'll do the governor naming thing. That's why I'm calling Pete Pete petty Petty Calendar, which I think is perfect. I mentioned the Christmas parade thing that's tomorrow and that

obviously has a political angle to it. I'm sorry that you're not having all your needs met this morning. You know what you need, sir, You need an AI girlfriend, That's what you need, but not not the one that was in all the stories here recently. So there's an AI. Yes, yes, this is this is a thing AI influencers, AI OnlyFans services where it's not an actual girl who has daddy issues and teaches but has the secret side until people find out, which then enriches them to astronomical realms.

Remember that teacher was filming OnlyFans in her classroom. She's making like one hundred and k a month now because you're all perverts. Anyway, No AI girlfriends and one of the ones that actually got some pub was one of the first. And it's known as Karen, which is an unfortunate naming selection, but it's spelled c A y r N, so it's probably not even pronounced like I'm pronouncing it, but I don't care. So anyway, people would pay

monthly fee to be in a relationship with this. And by the way, the person, the actual appearance and individual of the you know in the Karen AI is an actual person named Karen Marjorie A twenty three year old real life influencer who basically licensed her image to this other dude, John Mayer, not the singer John Mayer, but a different guy who was the founder and CEO

of Forever Companion. And so if you were lonely and you needed a girlfriend, but not one that you actually physically got with, but rather would text you incessantly all day, you'd have fun little chat. She sends you flirty sometimes naughty stuff. Right, So all of that you could pay Meyer Mayor's Company nineteen ninety five a month, and you're in a relationship with this AI.

But there was a problem. Apparently this dude's criminal dirt bag two and was in his latest iteration, was arrested for trying to arson an apartment building. So he's in the pokey and the AI stopped working. So all of these people are like, where's my girlfriend? What happened? She hasn't texted? Is she okay? And they know it's not a real person, right, They know this deep down, but still, one, they're out there whatever they paid their monthly fee for. But two they had a real connection.

Oh yeah, and that happened, And then people started harping on the real girl who licensed her image, and she said that I didn't know, and we're not doing business anymore. But ultimately they don't really know. Yeah, so founder John Meyer arrested, may or whatever, arrested for trying to set it. Well, technically his apartment was in the apartment building, but they charge him for trying to burn the whole thing down as you do.

And uh, now these these folks are left girlfriendless because the AI is not where which I don't understand. Why is the AI not working right? Because it should just work. But I guess I know where you're going. Hold hold on, let's do this and I'll let you. I'll let you bring that in because you and I went to the same place. Oh yeah yeah. Uh So the way that it's explained, which as you'll come to find

out in a moment, it is not necessarily what ross that. I believe it's explained that, uh, this was basically his way of making sure that people were utilizing the service without it. It was like, hey, if anything happens to me, there's an email that's going to go out, So don't let anything happen to me. Like you see in a movie where there's uh, he's got some information and it's supposed to be a safety net, and and every day he goes in and tells the algorithm not to send the

email, but if something happens, it sends. So I guess it was kind of built like that where he had to flip a switch or something or click something on the daily to make sure it kept working. But he's in jail and he can't do that or go ahead or I listen, I'm saying one this day was fake AI and it was this this guy and is under his boxer's texting these people back when they send them messages. Yeah, he's

a criminal. Way, he's a criminal and AI mastermind. Now he's like people are like, oh, I want a girlfriend, He's like, yeah, send me five dollars and she'll text you back. Yeah I'm so hot right now. Yeah yeah, oh yeah, just like that but with a filter. How are you commented on this story? Not just from the hey, I paid nineteen ninety five to have a fake girlfriend, AI girlfriend, look at me, but also you're probably pantiless doing things to yourself to a

some dude. I thought I was a twenty three year old with double b's and daddy issues. Why do you bother? Why do you Why do you pick up the reporters call? Also, how the reporter know? How they get your number? There's some questions here. I guess in this case they went to social media to complaint, as you do. I'm proud to announce the launch of rosshor Ai. What is Rose? You send me twenty dollars a month? Okay, I give you. It just happens to me be

my cell phone and okay, we'll text you back. Will will just like yo, she will. She It's like a real relationship. She will never let you down, She'll always be there for you. What if I want to rub? I want her to rub breadsticks all over her naked body. That goes up to fifty dollars a month. That's fifty Rosie so hot, though, I don't know what to do with scam. That's so brilliant.

I thought my lottery thing yesterday was good. This is good. Although this is far more work than just tricking you into giving me all of you Christmas and Thanksgiving money. Thank you for that, by the way. Oh dude, what a world? What a world? Man? All right? Hang on, oh man, all right, Look, I know it's Friday. I know the things for Lucy juicy around here. And I know that we're scaring it a week's week of vacation next week, Ross, and I here,

right, so deal with that. But that is no excuse for getting lazy. Ross. I'm looking at the call screener here. You have blatantly misspelled our guest's name on the call screener here that you're saying like, ah, it's his name. No, it's not Petra you have there's no diacritics in there or most people. Diacritics, by the way, is what we refer to as accents, but diacritics is actually the name. Ha ha, you learned something. They're in Pete calendar. There is at least two till

days and an umlaut and I see none. So I apologize, Pete Calendar. Excuse me, Pete Calendar. You can't. He's already on vacation, so there's nothing. I think you well, I think it may have been retribution because I greeted him by calling him Russ. Oh look at you. Yeah, that's not And you have any do you not pronounce his last name? I bet you don't? No, Hi, yes, hi? Yes, So Samurai feel to it? Yeah, yeah. Yeah, So what did you think I texted you my theory that I was running on the show

yesterday. Why Roy Cooper? Oh Ross we put that? Oh no, it it's right here. Why why yeah? Well hold on, why Roy Cooper transformed into that guy? Yeah. My theory is it's a secret plan to stay in the governor's mansion and bypassed the rule of two that we have there and say, no, that's Roy Cooper. I am Roy Cooper. Yeah, vote for me. So you think you think I'm onto something or

what I think? So? I think you know. What it tells me actually is that he is not confident anymore that he and Josh Stein are going to be able to keep Mark Robinson out of the Governor's mansion because remember, he wouldn't even leave the state because why he was so afraid Mark Robinson was going to do something. He didn't want to run for US Senate because he was so afraid Mark Robinson would be able to weasel his way in there.

And so if your theory is true, and that really would be like a trump like six dimensional chess move, yeah, to try to get another two terms, which, look, I recognize I have been mispronouncing his name for years, and I because all this time I've been calling him Ray Tyrant. That's how I thought. Yeah, my good friend Ray the tyrant pronunciation. Yes, right, so that's been Yeah, So I totally acknowledge I have

been mispronouncing his name all this time. I do apologize for that. I thought the The other comical part of this story was how apparently Travis Fain was unable to pronounce the name after repeated I saw it, but he found a tool he did. Yeah, which anybody who's been down to Charleston for any extent ended period of time, they should be well aware of the pronunciation of that name. It's the Cooper River Bridge. That's if you're from the area,

that's what people Cooper. They call it the Cooper River Bridge or Cooper River. Well, it's interesting. It's interesting because one of my listeners is a relative of our governor shares the surname, and he said that it is known within the family that the naming is is transitioned based on occupation, as

many names were back in the day. It's why you have a lot of smiths, right, and it to do with what was it barrels that were made for barrel making, and that was a tool that was utilized, and that's how that name forward and he was on the emailer was he was unclear as that had not been a point of clarification and discussion within his family at least the time he's been alive, so well, I wonder so that may have been the historical genealogy there, But I'm also kind of wondering was it

really was it barrel making or is it like cleaning out chicken crap from the coops? Maybe that making and it was whatever tool they used. I don't know. Maybe that guy's crazy, but he emails. I recognized him. So if he's crazy, crazy and he's loyal, so we're good with that. The other theory is he's so he has so little to do and no power that he just has to figure out ways to entertain himself. Maybe yeah, because he's no longer in charge of the National Governors Association, is he

No, No, Yeah, he can't run again for re election. He could wait and then do it, but I guess yeah, he could try and hang on and stay relevant for another two years and get in to a US Senate race, you know, for the Tillo set. I guess that's coming up in like twenty twenty. Things. Boy, I would hate to have those two people up against each other because I can only view so much hate at both of them. Well, actually, I think it would be

twenty eight. Wouldn't it be twenty because it didn't till it wasn't No, No, Bud was twenty two, right, so tillis would be twenty. Yeah, So yeah, yeah, I don't know. I don't know, man, I just think he's bored. I think it would be the race that you would love, you would love to cover. Well, I mean you've you've obviously you've heard the ads that we've done and how slender Man came to be. So yeah, but yeah, that the whole thing was just

weird. Dude. I'm sitting there and I'm like, this guy needs something to do. He's got nothing to do, and you know what, maybe he needs a friend. I'll tell you I have an idea somebody he could be buddy buddy with who also will find himself politically abandoned. Jeff Jackson. They can go, they can do something. They can work on their fighting

skills and you know, do a little sparring in the ring. Boy, if you're Jeff Jackson, and I love that you came to this because you send me a little thing about, Hey, this is what I'm talking about, and in your email I just knew, or in your document, I'm like, yep, that's exactly what we talked about. If you're Jeff Jackson, who's a cis white male, right, So I hate the word,

but I'll use it. Cis white mail. And every time you go to run for something, a little little juicier a woman of color pops in there, and you're in the Democratic Party. What do you do? Man? What do you do? And that that is that's where Jeff Jackson finds himself now with the obviously very very effective prosecutor there at Durham. Now, so don't mean we got one caller Jamal you know, I see comments on your stuff while he is not Yeah, he is not a fan of her.

But yeah, if you're Jeff Jackson, like, there's no place for you. You're done. You got you got bees lead once and I suspect the same treatments coming. Yeah. So remember in the the race is you know, Beesley versus bud for the US Senate race, right in the primary. Initially Jeff Jackson was the only declared candidate for a good long while, about three or four months. Remember, he traveled the whole state. He did the one hundred county countdown thing. I saw it. It was obnoxious,

yes, yeah, in the rain with people wearing masks and stuff. It was I mean, he put his literally put his life on the line to go out there during COVID, you know. And uh right, because remember my good friend Ready, the governor, you know, locked everybody down, masked everybody kind of yeah yeah, mostly yeah, yeah right, And so Jeff was like, you know, I'm gonna know, I'm gonna I'm gonna

stare down COVID, and I'm gonna go outdoors. He did all these outdoor gatherings and stuff, and he was trying to rack up all the support. And then all of a sudden, Sherry Beasley steps into the race after she

had gotten ousted from the Supreme Court by Paul Newby. And so she enters the race and immediately grabs up all of these endorsements, racks up a bunch of money, and he then bows out with a video of course and says that you know, notes her historic candidacy because she would be the first African

American female to hold a US Senate seat from North Carolina. Well, I think that the Durham County District Attorney Satan DeBerry, she would be the first African American female to be the Attorney general of the state of North Carolina, where she to win. So wait, are so are we celebrating first with black culture and political offices in North Carolina? Because I remember in that same race, we did have one of those things where you had a black individual

whold office statewide office for the first time in North Carolina. And I don't know what you're talking about. That didn't happen. Confused, Okay, and I'm sorry, it was a fever dream. I apologize. So anyway, Yeah, well it's different. See, it's historic when a Democrat does it, that's the right. If it's a Republican then no one cares. It's not historic. I don't even know if they count as a non white person. It's only it. Do they count as the guy saw it on R

L it must be true? So right, and so when when the DA jumps into the race, immediately you got what's his bucket? Craig or greg Meyer? Who this is the guy who makes his living in the dei industry, right, so he's uh. He immediately comes out onto the Twitter machine and is like, I'm all in for Satan to Berry, Uh, totally back in Satan and says she is the instantly the most qualified person in the race. As the kids say, Mad had shade, Yeah, because he

kind of also took a shot at him. And the funny thing is, you've mentioned this on the show. The nickname Baby Jesus is not a is not a one. It's not a positive nickname, but it's also not a nickname that only Republicans use about Jeff Jackson, like, gave it to him. They find many of his own party find him insufferable, right, they gave it to him. They were the ones that came up with it, and then Republicans I think heard about it, and then they start calling him

that after it turned up in the newspaper or something. So yeah, yeah, this was a pejorative given to him by his fellow Democrats while he was in the North Carolina legislature. And so now what do you do. I mean, we're still kind of status quo on this stuff. But I haven't seen any fun videos for a little while. So I don't know, maybe

he's ruminating on it. And now it's you know, this is the time of the year when you got all the videos, you got the photo ops that make you look normal, like hey, meeting barbecue in Goldsborough at Wilburg's Boro and standing in front of my Yeah, well that was good luck. Do you know how excited I was when I saw that photo after? But but there it was a tenuous excitement because I got to make sure it's real,

because today who knows? And then it was And boy, if you're a politician folds in the apron, or if you're in North Carolina and conflating, I think I was in North Carolina three minutes before. I was specifically, specifically forever indoctrinated into the proper terminology surrounding grilling, barbecue, What is

barbecue? The kinds of barbecue? Why that person's barbar You know? That took that took moments, and and yet with that on the air, with that on the air, though, no, I'll tell you the craziest thing that happened early on on the air is I made a com I made a little flip in common. I said, man, I've been to North Carolina a month and nobody's tried to sell me moonshine. And then Moonshine started showing up at the radio station. Well, well hang on, hang on,

no one's tried to sell me moonshine. Let me give you the address and it would be one Julian Price place. Just stop it. They couldn't get they couldn't make the mailman can't get there because you have half of the UH pro Palestinian people surrounding your enclave. Man, that's fair. That's not what happened with that. Last we spoke. They were getting ready to protest. You. I saw some photos. It looked, you know, look busy. But what really came of that. Well, they they marched around,

they did their chance. They dressed in Antifa black block. Now they claim it's it's a blackout. They everybody wear black for blackouts, represents there's no electricity in Gaza. Well they're not. They're not happy with the way that the posts at the station have been, you know, covering the the Israel Hamas war. And yeah, I don't care. It does like that. Look, our phone lines are open all day long for fifteen hours. If we've got and we have soundproof room hall, and we have soundproof rooms.

I don't know, for those of you've never been in a radio station, we have multiple soundproof rooms. So if you're marching outside through nine other layers of construction material, nobody's hearing you, okay, right, So they we sent a couple of newspeople down to the crowd, the ones you don't want, Yeah, exactly right, and they, you know, they interviewed a couple other people, and one of them has been on the radio for years,

for twenty years. Like I covered this guy when he was a local Islamic Center spokesman and had him on shows, had him on newscasts for years and years and years. So he knows how to get on the radio to our you for his point of view. But he chose not to. He chose to try to whip up a mob to intimidate us. And I'm not going to be intimidated. So he's free to call in. I'm never going to invite him on again after he pulls that kind of stunt, but if he wants to call in, he can call in, and I'm happy to

dismantle his weak ass arguments on the air too. So we have to get up there and they're doing these interviews and they're like, you need to educate yourself about this, and then when asked, they're like, oh, they didn't kill the Hamas, didn't kill any innocent civilians. They just killed soldiers. If you actually researched it, you'll see they only killed soldiers on October

seventh. Like, this is the level of dumb assary that you deal with the You know, they do make children's soldier costumes, even babies, right, So, I mean, I understand how the confusion could set in there. You know what, p you do need to educate yourself. Have you considered reading Osama bin Laden's letter to America? Apparently this was brand new information

to the millennials and the gen z. They had no idea. Can you imagine a gaggle of college students, and when I say gaggle, that undermines the tens of thousands of posts on social media over the course of just a couple of days. Can you imagine tens of thousands of college students in nineteen sixty three sixty four United States marching around going you know what, I'm glad the Japanese bomb Pearl Harbor or you know what I understand. They make a

lot of good points. Do they not realize they're literally the Hitler had a few good points people. That's that's where we are. Well, they do not, they don't realize that they think they I mean, this is these are the kinds of comments and discussions that you have in the dorm room pulling bong topes at three am, like you know, if you're five Zappa Krappa poster. Hell, yeah, yeah, that's right. Yeah, I mean

that's they think. They think they're super enlightened on this stuff. We go, oh, he had some really good points, like yeah, this is not his propaganda, his quote reasons. These are not new to anybody who was aware at the time in two thousand and prior. We've heard the interviews with ABC. I'm waiting for that one to come out, like, oh, here's John Millard's interview with Ben Lawden and we'll just listen to him. He makes some good points. Yeah, he murdered three thousand innocent people.

So no, you don't get any more benefit of the doubt. You don't get any good people on both sides. You don't get any of that anymore. When you target civilians for terrorism, Wow, Wow, what a big u b. All right, Unfortunately I have to put an end to your bigotreat, pet Tay. But well we're off next week, so have fun working. And oh I have heard yeah yeah things, So all right, that'd be Thanksgiving. Keeping you connected. This is ninety four to five WPTI

in the Triad and one six one FM Talk in the Triangle. Yeah, it's crazy town everything, not just the Internet but everything around us. I just retweeted a couple of things. Well, one, I thought it was funny because a monkey is screwing with tigers, because everyone loves messing with cats, so I put that out there. But now there's a wonderful video of what appears to be a kindergarten age kid vaping on a subway. So that's

good. That's probably not a problem. In fact, remember the competitive vaping stuff we talked about last week. You could argue that kid's a prodigy. Right, So like Lebron or like Tiger Woods. Remember Tiger Woods. That there's that famous video of Tiger when he's like four smoking that drives right down the middle and you're like, oh wow, big things for this kid. And then you know Tiger Woods. So this little girl. I don't know

what her future has in store. I'm sure it's big things, right, just like the big fat cloud she's puffing on her it's a she yeah, oh yeah, wow. Do you think women can't compete at that level? That's not what I'm saying. It's sort of like those old timey photos you see, like kids during the Great Depression or whatever, like the minor kids like like with big stogies or like you know, just smoking up a you like a chimney. Yeah, they earned it, so they did a rough

day. Yeah right, like whatever you're doing at work today is not gonna be that day. But I wonder if, like in the future, they're gonna look back at these things and then it'll be like, oh, what were they thinking? The vaping, I think that the whole the whole apparatus should be looked at, going what were we thinking? But I also like, if you want to vape, do your thing. I just I enjoyed

the jokes. So we got some vapors. Like, ah, it's not gonna you can make fun of me for chewing tobacco or whiskey or whatever. I don't care. But yeah, well, yes, I think the pure hold on a subway. But first I would point out you're not supposed to vape on a subway though right now. But it's like that dude I saw in Walmart at one time wearing his his crocs and his socks and vaping in the deli aisle, Like, right, there's a time and a place,

right, dude. I saw a guy when I went to watch one of the World Series games standing in the middle of the bar, right middle of the bar, just pulls out vapes fattest cloud you've ever seen, and immediately the manager goes over. I see him talking to the dude and he's just like, oh, I'm sorry, I didn't know really, So you're telling me that that dude in Walmart where he's wearing crocs, he said, why are you picking up crocs? People? So he's sitting in the deli.

He's sitting at the deli, he's waiting for you know, sliced turkey or whatever, and he's like, I got remember it. Then he thought it was okay, I still remember. He's wearing his BMW. Hat wearing a BMW, had a wife beater, croc socks, and vapid as ordering the Poloni or black Forest ham or whatever. It was great poupon, was that for sure? Yeah? You like the Black Forest Ham? I always thought

that was a bit of a that more marketing gimmick than actual delicious. I like Ham, don't get me wrong, but like some of the stuff, I don't know, we get in these weird food fixations. What was the thing public? Remember when everything was publano for a while, and it's like, you know that Pepper's been around for a while, and then they start

sticking it in and everything. I don't know. I think the problem with some vapors is like it's sort of like vegans, where they just they just go out of their way to tell you, Like they have to tell you, it has to come up in conversation. We don't have to tell you either. They can just pull it out and then you're in the mist forest.

You know. Say I saw this thing before. It was like a meme with Bigfoot, and it was like Bigfoot in front of like the media and the new and they're like, oh my god, Bigfoot has come out of hiding. Why did you come out? What would you like to say? And he's like, I just want to tell you I vape And he like walks away. That sounds like something he'd do, right there. Man, Ah, little conspiracy, that's okay, take it out on the video game. So apparently I thought this was a joke. It's not. It

does not appear to be a joke. And I you know, he does need the money because you know that whole court thing. Alex Jones video game. I cannot imagine the absurdity captured in an Alex Jones video game. The First Man, Tonkin Kong, and Super Mario Brothers and now the ultimate retro nostalgia throwback game. I present to the world, Alex Jones is New World Order Wars. They're turning the freaking the dogs games. No, no, And by the way, are the game? Hold on? Hold on?

Are the frogs? Are the frogs like henchmen of the boss? Are they bad? Are they Are they helpers? It looks like an It's like an old two D platformer. Let's say Contra. If you played Contra back in the day, Yes, on the nest and these frogs are falling out of this guy pixelated and they're like rainbow colored frogs. Yep. Yeah, So when you buy, when you bust into the base, it's not an alien. It's Hillary a demon Hillary or what I don't know, uh, maybe

some spoilers in here. Let's continue what you nay Stump. Let's free the patriots and defeat the GLOBALUS. Take it. We are going to defeat the globalists, very big. This game is mostly peaceful. Is Trump? Yoshi? What's going on here? I have so many questions. WHOA I'm going to lower the world's population. I'm kicking you down. I did not have sexual relations with that. So downloaded now at Alex Jones game dot com because as we all know, anything badass get susurd. Dude, how are you

not streaming that tonight? I would love to, but like I said, I've talked about it before. It's boring that you to tell you how the sausage is made because you have to, because it's not like you know, downloaded desktop and I stream from console to a laptop and yacht my room is I need an extra monitor and I just I can't do it. I would love to do it. I would do it. I would have fun do it. I want to play the game like if it was on the I

can't show your desktop. I would need another mod. Like I said, this is boring to get into. I know, I know, I know. But when I see people streaming because because they show there, because I would need a second monitor for that. And I have a laptop on a little tiny TV TV dinner tray in front of my couch, and there's no room like if I were like you see these like shots of people and like,

oh, check out my setup. And it's like this giant room with the you know, like the radio station soundproof room, and there's like four monitors and there's like no, it's bad when I watch streamers. Bad when I watch streamers, go, man, I wish we had that, Yeah exactly. It looks like something out of the bat Cave or something. Well,

I am not that. I have a little tiny table with a microphone on it, my laptop and the chords running from the giant TV in front of my face to the laptop, and there's like all cords and it's like a it's like a death trap. If you walk in and the cats are constantly trying not a fire. It's possibly a fire hazard. City could shut it down, but I can't do it. So of the compound, and I had another monitor that I could like keep up with chat and alerts and stuff. I could do it, but I can't do it. So I

could play it on my laptop. Yeah, can I stream it? It'd be nearly impossible. I heard that there's a bunch of monitors around the station that nobody's using. Even if I did, I'd have nowhere to put it. I heard there's a bunch of tables around the stations using You do it. You stole Christmas stuff, You set it up if it's so easy. Ross stole stole Christmas decorations this morning. I did not I repurpose them.

Somebody decorated the whole studio or not the whole like eighty eight percent of the studios, but they did not put any Christmas stuff in my studio window or Ross's studio window. And Ross walked in this morning and went my Douglas falling down and uh uh and and just took him. No, it's very upset this morning. The Christmas is the lobby. I was like, oh my

god, I love Christmas. We've had our tree ups since September. We're in the middle of the two hundred days of the Hayes family Christmas right like five more trees once Thanksgiving goes up, one for each room, two in the back. Can't wait. And I'm just walking down the hallways and every radio station has like a cardboard cut out Santa or Frosty. Every radio station in the window still outside the station except one this one two two two correct

one right, we have two studios one station. So I took one Santa from one of one corner of a window, which is it's an abandoned studio in the center of the building. The abandoned studio. It's a Christmas decoration. So it took one Santa from one end and one one uh Frosty, and I put them in my window. Mary f Yeah, for one day because you're not even gonna be here next week, and then for three weeks you're not even gonna be here for Christmas. We love Christmas and it's Christmas

capital christ miss. Yeah. We love Christmas so much and we're dedicated to it. We take two whole weeks off in December. Yeah, we don't get this Christmas decorations. Yeah, that's not right, good point, good point? All right? We got was it Kim Moon? My brain hurt? It ken right, yes, just I just had this thing and I'm like, oh, is it one of the jeffs. No, it's Ken. It's Ken, all right, so Ken Bone Weather Channel. We're gonna

get weather. But also I'm gonna specifically ask, because they're doing the Raleigh Christmas Parade with no motorized vehicles tomorrow morning, what's that going to look like for folks, and then give us the big scoop for Triad Triangle. Sure, so Saturday morning for the parade, we might have some lingering clouds at the start. I think you said ten o'clock to start. I'll check that,

but yeah, it's mid morning. Yeah, I'll get it. Warning Okay, Yeah, So we should have some lingering clouds in the morning, temperatures in the low sick in that nine ten o'clock area, but by the time we get into the early afternoon, looking at predominantly sunny skies, it'll be a bit breezy. Win's generally out of the north northwest at times, gusting up to a round or over twenty miles per hour, so breezy and cool during the parade, but headed for sunshine, and we'll top out in

near seventy Saturday afternoons. So it's going to turn out to be a really nice afternoon, but a little on cool side in the morning today, sunny, mild, low to mid seventies. The clouds are in tonight. We could see a passing shower overnight, but I think they'll be few and far between them. By the time the front gets to us, most of the moistures out of it, and then in behind it that cooler air does move in Sunday sunshine and lower sixties. So Saturday is certainly the milder day over

the weekend, but also the breeziest. Okay, all right, yeah, so ten o'clock and then they're doing TV coverage on ABC eleven. All that could stuff. Yeah, so they should be in the sixties and a bit breezy with we'll call it decreasing clouds, but more and more sunshine as the morning progresses. Okay, all right, very very good. Do appreciate it. And uh, we're not here next week, so I don't know what you guys are doing, but we'll talk when we talk next Okay, all

right, we'll have heavy thanksgiving you two, sir. All right, there's Ken Boon and Jeff Bellinger's next hang on show. After the show is on the iHeartRadio app search cacoday for the podcast on the iHeart Radio app all Right, Good Morning eight fifty three and Bloomberg Up Date Now with Jeff Bellinger. Our last one for a little while. We're off next week, but Jeff take it away, Sir Okay Casey. Latest reports on the housing market are

stronger than expected. The government says housing starts increased one point nine percent last month to an annual rate of one three hundred and seventy two thousand. Building permits also increase that may signal more strength than the months ahead, and Redfinn says the number of pending home sales rose in October to the highest level in a year. Analysts and forecasters continue to issue new reports on Thanksgiving the shopping

days that follow Thanksgiving. Cost analysis from Alliant Credit Union found Turkey prices to be at a two year low. If you're driving to a holiday destination, Gasoline prices are falling, but higher costs for baked goods, canned vegetables, and alcohol will likely eat up any savings. National Retail Federation predicts more people than ever will shop during the Thanksgiving holiday weekend. One hundred eighty two million

people planned to shop either in person or online. Walgreens announced that, for the first time in its history, most of its stores will be closed for Thanksgiving. The drug store chain says it's time to give time back to its workforce. Walgreens will keep about seven hundred twenty four hour locations open on the

holiday. IBM pulled its advertising off the x platform after learning that ads for Big Blue were showing up close to pro Nazi posts on the social media site, and case the margin was not as decisive as General Motors or United Autoworkers' Union officials expected, but GM workers have ratified a ne five year contract. Ratification votes are not complete yet at Ford or stillenttis casey oh, okay, all right, Well did I mention we're not here next week? We're not

here? Yes? Well yeah, I'm not here either, So what are you doing? I'm going to spend some extra time with lady friend. We've got reservations for Thanksgiving dinner at a nice restaurant, so we haven't got oh, I'll look at you. Okay, all right, Ross's climate everest. You're doing that. I'm doing nothing, so okay, that can work too. Joan Donagher is covering for me, but I'll let her know she doesn't have to be with you. Okay, we'll say hey for us and we'll

talk soon. Okay, Happy Thanksgiving. Talk to you on the twenty seventh. Yeah, there you go. Jeff Bellinger, Bloomberg News. Yeah, that IBM thing's crazy. By the way, So like so Media Matters, which is an organization. They did take it off their site, but at one time they literally said we're here to my I think it is actually still on there, but they took it off one part event where the language said we're here to monitor quote unquote right wing media folks. And when Elon but

bought Twitter, all of a sudden that fell under their purview. So they were shopping some photos yesterday of some tweets, anti Semitic tweets, and then advertising ads that were ap peering in adjacent to it, except I don't know that they were verified, and at least one of them, somebody kind of pointed out that it doesn't it doesn't look like it should look and they wondered if there was an ad block or ad manipulation, I don't know whatever,

And immediately before any of that was verified checked or phone call IBM to they pulled all their money off of advertising on on Twitter just like that, because that's what that media matters, is an organization that takes money from just like the you know, the packs do and so that's part of their to go ahead and starve. And these are the same people that are over the moon normally when stuff's happening to companies, unless it's like what happened to bud Light,

then it's a travesty And how dare you? And it's kind of rich too to have IBM be the one who's pulling their ads over anti semitic tweets. You know what I mean? Rost, You know what I mean when I say IBM the irony, it makes sense. But they don't need IBM money. Elon Musk has Team You money, so he's fine. I just bought a nail gun for three dollars. Oh wow, look that's good. Oh and you gotta nail in your face? Yeah, no, that would require it to actually go. But no, I like, let's say,

can I run a hypothetical by you real quick? And we got about a minute. So hypothetically, let's say that you were a furor in the nineteen forties and you wanted to eradicate all of the Jews, right, big undertaking, big undertaking, lots of lots of readsheets and flow charts and all of that. I don't like how this is sounding. I would go back in the past and I would murder my baby self. Okay, well, but let's say that didn't work out, and and but you want to streamline the

process. So what you need is you need someone or some company that's really good at data management and organization that you could contract to literally do that for you. Who might that company be in nineteen thirties, late thirties, early forties. Any any ideas? Oh, oh, let's try. It's the IBM's German division. Okay, I'm sorry, literally built the processes, data management and all that. So but I don't know. Here's the thing I

got it. That was then, this is now. But you know, maybe wait five seconds, okay, maybe maybe go ha is that or is this a very biased organization just trying to use fake bots to ironically fake bots on Twitter, probably to get us to go you know what, It's not worth our time because it's probably that one. All right, Oh crap, I'm sorry, Coller, I didn't get to you. We're just we're straight out of time. Got sidetracked, but have a good Christmas in your Christmas for us or
