Monday-12-11-2023

All right, good morning everybody, and welcome me. And he is six o seven here on the casey O Day radio program. I don't know, dude, it's always like right before we go on vacation. You can hear my way on Saturday, I think I was awake for like four hours. Maybe I don't know. There's a nasty little something go around. You know who had you know what it is? Uh, we're doing that stuff of

us and one of our sales ladies. I saw her one day when she came out the next day, her and I had an appointment with one of our clients and I called her on the phone. Here. She called me on the phone because she had sent a message saying, hey, I'm not gonna be able to be there, and it was just there was too much to write and text to figure something out. And she sounded like this. No, she's had a lot worse than this. She sounded like I probably

sounded earlier with the sore throat. So yeah. So then yesterday, armed with this, I went down to the terminal cancer ward and complained all the patients about it. Ross What did you do yesterday? That was what I did, right, because it's so unfair to you, and it is it's how could this happen to you? You know, to me of all people. Oh all right, so yes, there's two things going on here.

One, I'm serious, Saturday was just awful. Today's not great. But we got a week left, so we're gonna truck this thing out in two. The odudacity, the odd I don't have a dog in this fight, she bills. I know, ross got a lot to say, but just from an outsider's perspective, the audacity. I understand that the chief didn't like the call. I understand it was close. These are things that have happened a few times before, and we've talked on this show about officiating garbage,

whatever it is. Although it looked like the dude was a little offside, but what killed me and I don't really have a beef with mahomes right, and I thought him and to run out on the field at the end to purportedly your friend, and rather than congratulating him, the first thing out of your mouth is that was be I can't repeat what he actually said because it's all expletives, but that's bs. I can't believe it, which essentially means

you didn't win floored me. Floored me yesterday right right in saying that to Josh Allen, Right, that's what I mean, that's the most messed up call I've ever seen. Really, bro. Yeah, he didn't read after the game saying it's so weird because normally they the officials would warn them if somebody was offside so they could correct the situation. And it's really it shows how bad you know, it's it's it's bad that the NFL would do that.

It looks bad on them that they would they were offside. I'm like, wait, what what do you mean they warn you? How long have they been warning you? And then Patrick Mahomes after the game that at the presser, he's sitting up there and he's like, you know that kind of call, shouldn't it be called because it doesn't really affect the play? Plus they scored a touchdown, so it shouldn't count. Dude, was so like you saw him, right, Yeah, yeah, I saw the graphic.

He was like so over the line. Well no, but if it if it, if it doesn't matter, then why shouldn't you be able to start with your receivers in the end zone? You know what I'm saying? I mean If that's his point, then there's a lot of defensive holding calls that you might want to look at from the past, Right, Yeah, that

don't affect the place. Like you know, you're throwing to a wide receiver down the field, but there's somebody like you know, on the other side of the field, and yeah, it cancels out the touchdown or whatever. Yeah, or it gives you extra yardage, Like, shut up, dude. He has been he has been on the opposite side of this for so long. He doesn't know how to react when they're actually getting calls for plays

that should be called. He has been coddled. He has been uh, he's been the beneficiary of these positive calls on his side, and now finally that's something. It's like, what is going on? What is this about? What? You know? Everything? Everything was just spreadshee, Everything's just spreadsheet right, which is why all these teams now go for it on fourth at midfield. Right. Somebody, some statistician ran the numbers, you know

what I'm saying. How come nobody ran the numbers before letting Andy Reid wheel himself out there and go you know what, maybe we shouldn't line about the officiating because if you look statistically, we have been the beneficiary of that. Somebody on AX they did a thread and I know I was at the gym. I saw it this morning, and I thought it was gonna be like a short thread of like four or five things, and this thread was like, dude, it was like fifty tweets and it was like, well,

here are all of the calls that were on the chief side. It was like, you know, here's a holding that wasn't called. Here's past interference that wasn't called. Here's past interference that was called that wasn't past interference. Here's holding that was called that wasn't holding. And it just goes on forever and it all benefits the Chiefs every single time. So shut your whining, take the l being a man and say congratulations and walk off the field.

They're friends, right, aren't they friends? Supposedly? You see look at Josh Allen's face like yeah, he was like you say, okay, man whatever. I'm sure he's probably gonna apologize to him. But again, I got I don't have beef with Mahomes. I would agree he's coddled absolutely completely. I would I would love to I would like to think that once Mahome sees that, Yeah, the graphic of the du way over the line. You know, he's standing on he's like, you know, so off sides,

Like all right, well that was that was bad. Nah, it's gonna be I think it's gonna be mishy middle like. I don't think he'll yield that to him. I'll just he'll just make look motion's got the best of me. I'm sorry, but because then you're kind of going against the coach, and it's my understanding that Reid can be a little vindictive. So any who, so congrats to you. You win by three, I win by three, and somehow we're made fun of. So I don't know what's

up with that, right. Josh Allen is now three and two at Arrowhead and the Bills are the only team to beat Patrick Mahomes three times, really at home or just in general, I want to say in general. Yeah, we had a baseball game against the Raiders yesterday. Oh but I wasn't sure if it was baseball or hockey. And know what you're playing? So

I was it was quaidouche. Oh okay, yeah, yeah, yeah, I don't even know, man, I know, I know, uh w is a w but the Vikings, three Raiders nothing, who wants to watch that? I don't want to watch that? And Stage, who wasn't gonna be here is gonna be here. And you just know we're gonna have to hear about the Cowgirls although they know the Pats were eliminated from the playoffs. Oh oh dude, I know I got a whole thing. I'm gonna go. Yeah, yeah, I got a whole thing on that. It's gonna

tie with this story I found. Yeah, because of math and stuff. And then uh yeah, Cowboys took care of the Eagles pretty pretty good. Uh. The Panthers continues to be a rebuilding year. See what I was trying to think there's any games that really stood out now that the whole thing with running onto the field and being like, oh, I can't believe it.

All I could think of is like you got a tummy ache and you go into the hospice place You're like, I would tell me ache, and it's just like, but yeah, that's the vibes I got, all right, coming up, coming up? Well, actually you know the story I'm but it tight end with Rossetts and the prep packet, Remember the ones with the the Massachusetts legislatures looking at I just assume the tour connected. I'll explain. No, no, that makes sense. Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah,

gotta do something because the people just you know, lose control. Uh well, well I'll explain and we'll get into it. Coming up. KCO Day Radio program keeping you connected. This is ninety four or five WPTI in the Triad and one O six one FM talks in the Triangle. All right, good morning, welcome back to you. Is six twenty. You're on the CaCO Day radio programs. So, yeah, as Ross pointed out,

cause math, it appears that we've had some teams. As you know, as we get to this part of the season, we report these things and you get teams that get mathematically eliminated, and it's our job, because you know, there's a news operation at the core put that out there. Ros. Do we have any teams that were mathematically eliminated for the playoffs yesterday? Yeah, it looks like unfortunately the pats oh Man really really yeah, well you know what, you know what we said, But good news on the

horizon. As I think lawmakers in Massy Chuts, it's realized that if the Neanderthals don't have something to stare at on Sunday. They may just I don't know, go all winter Hill gang again are contemplating legalizing psychedelic mushrooms, and I think that's great. Then he then you all can hallucinate the playoffs and maybe even another Super Bowl win. Right, problem solved? No, seriously,

Maschusetts voters will be voting on whether to legalize psychedelics. The final the final ballot proposal is simply it's already the legislatures said to put it on there, and now the Secretary of State has to write it out. But yeah, it'll be on there. So uh yeah, psychedelic mushrooms in southee. What do we think of that? I think that's amazing. I don't want to be I think Aaron Rodgers is going to demand a trade to the to the pay. Oh they can have him, absolutely, Aaron Rodgers, who

may have injured himself doing something stupid before. You you've heard that theory, right, do you know that Aaron Rodgers injury theory? Or are you the one of us talking about a way now I'm the one that told you about it. Yeah, okay, yeah, I couldn't I couldn't remember if it was you or a buddy of mine who hates Aaron Rodgers. But the theory

because here's the deal. If you get you're a football player and you get injured playing football, and in your contract it'll generally spell out how much you get. But if you're not playing football and you're like, ah, i'm a Let's say that Josh Allen decided he wanted to go do the table drop out in the stands ahead of the game and you know, broke his arm. He would not get near as much money because that was not an injury

in football. So some are theorizing that Aaron Rodgers injured him. Correct, he injured himself prior to the season, but hit it until the opener or something. Is that what the theory is, and then went out went oh man, I'm hurt. Yeah. He was all strung out or something, and he was like in his darkness retreating the cave and he was like, I can't see you because it's dark in the cave. And he's like, you know, fumbling around. It's a boom, you know, knee or

something or you know, on the cave wall. He's like, and then he wins backward. It blows it out and he's like, well, I'm just gonna fake it for the first game. Run out there somehow you got four plays in. Yeah, and they be like I'm injured because they're like, how else could he recover so fast? Right? Right, right right? But now they have a conundrum because the Jets beat the crap out of a team yesterday. Ross, would you look up see you? They beat

the crap out of yesterday. I don't have that in front of me, right's gonna check that? Sorry, I had it open. And then I just flipped over this thing where NBC News is crying. A lot of people whine him this morning. The Texans Texans, that's right. Well, ah, that's tough because people have gone, oh, well the Texans are good kind of but remember there stud they have two really good players. They have their quarterback, but they also had what's the guy's named Tank Dell and he

went out last week for the rest of the season. So it's a very different Texans team. So we'll see. But I saw in the front of the New York posts they're just like, oh, we love not Aaron Rodgers, we love our other guy. So it's a fickle fan base up in New York Man as as you probably know. Oh they did it? They what is it? Remember those? Remember those? I'm sorry, I flipped

over the New York Posts and I want to read the headline. Roger, you remember those idiots who wouldn't let that Jewish old Jewish lady into the bathroom. Oh yeah, I know, I saw the update. Oh oh, this is very Apparently they've been fired. I am blown away that they were fired. I just assumed it was a Moonback cop Well it is a Moonback coffee shop, but it sounds like it just went too far. And it's

in California. Yeah, even the guy who I allowed. How again, remember these are the guys that are the three who were claiming it wasn't about her being Jewish. And actually I figured out more of where it started because we didn't know somebody had written some like really anti semitic crap in the bathroom and she just complained about it. You know, as a customer would I

mean a lot of people would just ignore stuff. But you know, if you went into a bathroom and there's just all sorts of horribleness written on the wall and it's really stands out there, you might say something that's so they got beef with But then they had the audacity to claim it had nothing to do with her being Jewish or Jewish stuff, and we find out it was anti Semitic writing on the wall, and the dude kept telling this woman what

was it? History didn't start in nineteen forty eight, which is a clear reference. So actually got fired. Yeah, there's a little renaissance the the I'm sorry, it's just you could to suffer through this all week with me. Hopefully I feel a lot better today than I did, so hopefully hopefully by tomorrow it's it's near gone. But you know, you have the U Penn professor who wasn't fired. She was kind of fired. I say professor

because she used to be the president the University of Pennsylvania. She had that disastrous testimony. They ran her, but she will She is a tenured law professor, so she's still a tenured law professor U Penn. She's not the president anymore, because tenure is a hell of a thing, even when you're cool with you know, threats of genocide. So she will remain there. I know that. Really they've turned their their teeth to the Harvard president.

There's allegations that she plagiarized some of her uh, some of her work back in the day. And and you have people like Bill Ackman and others who were diving in big, big, big money guys. Although Ackman has a I've got beef with Ackman, but Ackman is one of these guys who likes to roll the dice on stuff and sometimes it works great and sometimes it doesn't pan out. He famously shorted Amway and they made a whole movie out of it, basically trying to get him to lose, and they didn't. But

he's back at it. So Yeah, there's a little renaissance on this stuff. Yeah, I think you had to fire the coffee shop people. I feel like there might be more coffee shops and even ones who might embrace his employees so they they'll be Okay, your day Smarter one six one FM Talk and News Talk ninety four to five WPTI more with case starts now. All right, good morning everybody, and welcome. It is six point thirty five

kco Day Radio program. For some reason, as we Karene into twenty twenty four and more importantly, yeah, Kareean into Casey and Ross's vacation here at the end of the week. For some reason, Uh, bodily functions keep popping up in the world of politics. Remember last week it was John Kerry while giving a speech about emissions, maybe breaking win maybe that you know how these things are, right, did he or didn't he? Or did she or didn't she? The only one I'm truly convinced about is Eric Swalwell.

Undeniable. You know why because he spent so much time denying it. Do you know what I mean? That dude did interviews to deny it. He took to social media to deny it. John Kerrey ain't gonna get he he made. He'll just ignore you if you ask him about it, mostly because he's a pompous ass. But that's when I feel like, yeah, that's

what I knew. Swalwell done it. But look, people are human whatever, So John Kerry does that, and it's just, you know, it's a little bit of it's a little bit of irony considering where he is and what he's doing. Fast forward to yesterday. Twitter spaces, Right, you ever been on one of those? I still have never been on a Twitter space while it's going. I've pulled audio from them after, but I get

annoyed when they're up in my header on Twitter. That's that's the most annoying thing to me about the Twitter spaces and it makes me not want to go in them. Is that if somebody I follow is doing one, it cuts off that top part of the app and I you know, that's valuable real estate on a hand on the phone. Man. I know it's a childish objection, but it's how I roll. So they're doing one yesterday and it's a Ramswami and I mean, you're not you don't have a camera on,

it's just audio. But people are wondering what he was doing. I're an optimistic progi of the future, the science with evidence shows is real and that we neat gentlemen, I have to I sted exactly clear about I'm super pro human and I mean old humans. Uh you know humans in America. Humans and the bathroom. That's the fact. That's that's your fun. The fact I'm not able to mute you go ahead, you long? Sorry about that? So well, I hope you feel better. I feel great, Thank

you guys. All right, So in this case, uh not not pushback. Perhaps whether it's a joke or now jo I don't know. What a collection of people arguing or not arguing, but uh in there talking about whether presidential candidates popped into the restroom is the reality? Man? I mean, I'm concerned. That's a very weak stream. I should see. You're always I can't vote for that, I can't you. Yeah, I was gonna

ask because when I stream on Twitch, it hates for sheriff. You give me a follow anyway when I'm on there, Like there's times I have to take a break and go to the bathroom, and I'm in my living room on my couch, right, so I have a bathroom right underneath the stairs, like right, like a little tiny like half bath. Yeah, And I make sure every single time that I turn off the microphone because the stream

would be so I would probably pop the mic. Everybody speakers concerned. It's like when that gas man broke in front of your house that yes, yes, right, and the people from Mars or whatever looked like they're the NASSA, looked like they were descending on your house. So it was like at the end of the ET where they come and wearing the suits suits. Yeah, dude, did you see what they did to et with the with the remaster? They they took the guns away from the age of really yeah so

dumb. Yeah. So now they're holding nothing but pointing their arm at Yeah. So now they're like they're like the British like police or whatever, like yeah, I guess I don't know. Yeah, put something in their hand, put a taser in the point, point a stick at the alien. That'll stop them. Yeah, they hate that. Man. You get waters normally what kills them in him? So you should just have You're a super soaker, man, God of me, isn't it bro Come on anyway?

It's a week stream. Yeah, so you think, I I just gotta ask, like at that point now or are we gonna get so deep into this that people just start judging based on stream. I'm telling you, I can't vote for that. The I at first it to me and honestly didn't even sound like. I thought he was near like a water like a fish tank or something or a water feature. But then it was like he basically owned up to it. And at that point, yeah, and you know

what this goes. This goes hand in hand with the kinds of little things that when you talk to voters that it there either actually do drive them to vote for against somebody, or at the very least become the topic of the day when there's so much else going on, like Ron DeSantis's shoes. Right. Yeah, Still he's not a strong leader. I saw the Napoleon movie, the New New in the New Napoleon movie, and you know, you know he took the face off of the sphinx. Okay, potty break,

Okay, strong stream, so you're your vote? So you vote based on stream? Stress? No, I mean there's different various things that I you know, I and I put through the old brain and I run it through and I'm just I've done that and I'm like this a week leader can't vote for it? Gotcha? Who do you think we would have a stronger stream standing up going number one? Vaswami or Hillary? What I'm just putting. God, I'm not saying I'd vote for it, because I would not,

but I you'd have to Hillary. No, I'm trying. What I'm trying to have to help you examine potential flaws in your logic, right, because yeah, you're right, somebody with a powerful stream versus uh that, I understand how people can think that. But then if it's Hillary and you have to throw a polity. It's a it's about me. Think about this man. This is has like geopolitical ramification. You can have somebody with a burner account on like like say Putin was on there and you heard that, right,

it's not going to fear that. No, if you're at the you're at the g whatever, right, and you roll up to one of the Golden Urinals and next to you on one side, Putin's at one and the other is uh is g right, that's I mean, it's on you hear that and he's the president, and you're like, I'm going into Poland tomorrow. Uh huh, that's uh, that's probably I'm telling you. I think that a lot of it. Uh. I think that JFK must have had

a weak stream human missile crisis. Look what almost happened. Something something made the Russians want to do that. Don't know, six forty two that might have just been from well anyway, all right, six forty two Kcoday radio program. Using my special near vacation voice, I uh I think maybe uh ross, instead of coming back to radio at the end, we should play baseball show. Hey Otani, I do just have to throw. I know this is sports, but I don't care, just signed a seven hundred million

dollars ten year contract with the Dodgers. Otani, if I guess, if you don't know anything about baseball, Otani not only is one of the best hitters in baseball, but is a pretty damn good pitcher, which obviously that's just not something you do or see anymore. You know, that's Babe Ruth

kind of stuff. And you know, obviously, if you've got a guy a strong hitter, you don't want him pitching just pitching, even if you're in a division where well, I guess it doesn't matter anymore, but so, but you know, with Otani, the dude, let's see, he hit three or four led the al and home runs this last year, and you are a three six hundred and eight strikeouts seven hundred million bucks. Prior to that, the largest baseball contract Mike Trout for I remember seeing the Trout

contract and going, Holy crap, Otani's seven hundred mil. How far are we from the first billion dollar sports athlete. I mean, the industry continues to grow, and I would remind you that with more and more revenue being derived from gambling, as that expands, it's going to grow faster never, So you're saying that Cashman probably won't swing Otani, did you want? Well, he ain't gonna go because when he's an Angel and guy, he doesn't have to move. Yeah, he doesn't want to. He doesn't have to

move. And there is a there is a Japanese baseball culture less than Los Angeles, more in San Francisco where they actually have some leagues and they do a lot. Uh, they do a lot of A lot of the teams come over from Japan too, and he does a lot of stuff going back to Japan, and it's the whole thing. But all right, I guess I don't know where you go. I think he does like an old tour

thing he did during the off season. But uh yeah, yeah. I think the biggest part is he doesn't have to move whatever his house is, he's fine. Yeah, and he's close in the family being on the West Coast. No, no, no, But I mean he's an Angel currently, yeah, exactly, he's going to the dodge, so he just literally has to move stuff out of his closet. So uh but yes, seven hundred middle plus the Yankees Gotje Sato, So you know, I tell you big hopes for you guys, it should be a good year, all right,

six forty five kco Day Radio program. Hang on the show after the show is on the iHeart Radio app. Search cacoday for the podcast on the iHeart Radio app. Good morning everybody, and welcome. It is six fifty one. Sip my third I'm on my third glass of hot teath as well by broad is awesome AnyWho. But yeah, I'm like, I can't. You can't take it to day off when you only have five to go. So here we are. You get to put up with it. I'm I'm

not okay with this next story. You guys like it when judges try to get creative. Sometimes we've done stories where people have called in and they've been pretty excited. Like you had a judge who I can't remember some it was some punk, smartmouth kid and like ended up the kid had to wear a sign stand on the corner or something. But it was for it was for something that was more about disobeying his parents, and I think mom was kind

of in on it. There's a lot of examples of this. However, this one annoys me and I feel like the let me lay it out. So here's what happened. This is in Ohio. You have a woman, Rosemary Hayne, who went to Chipotle, okay, all right, was getting herself her order and I don't know if they forgot something or she asked for guac and they put too little, but whatever, she said something to one of the employees and she didn't like what they said back to her, and

so she did what adults do at thirty nine years of age. She took her Chipotle burrito bowl, smashed it and threw it and smashed it into the worker's face, and then it tried to beat her and to some extent did well. She was arrested and she was charged. Now the ruling, excuse me, According to this judge, she feels that she should she should learn empathy. So she sends her to one hundred and eighty days in jail, suspended half of it, and at that point that was probably a reasonable penalty.

And by the way, this woman had some other anger related stuff from a criminal standpoint prior to this. Apparently she's not too good dealing with people, and so it looked like she was going to do ninety days. But then the judge said, hey, why don't we use this to teach empathy. So the judge said that you, instead of jail time, can spend those hours that would be the you know, equal to it working at a fast food restaurant. So you understand what it's like to be a fast food

worker because of what you did. I have a question, what person working at a fast food restaurant wants this psychopath there? She has no impulse control from what it appears, and what happens when a customer challenges her? What happens when a customer is like you? What happens when a customer makes the same complaints she did, and she feels she's in the right, you jump the counter and assault the customer. Remember she's got a hold of the brito

bowl first. This is the dum miss stuff. Ever, and and and who and who? What fast food owner wants to hire this woman? Ah sou In the world of creative punishment, you like this because I think this is dumb. I think this is borderline once again not realizing that sometimes people do stuff. They actually need the criminal penalties, right, they actually need

the Is this not embarrassing some kids? So he'll obey his mother? This is somebody who decided to assault another person who's just doing their job and has had previous instances. This is like a Seinfeld episode. Why is everything?

It goes back? There's this episode where they're writing a series for NBC and their idea is and it's a stupid idea and they admit to that right that there's some sort of car accident or something and the guy doesn't have insurance and the judge is like, okay, then you have to be the guy's butler for a year or whatever the time is. And there's our Zenie sitcom. It sounds like a Zenie sitcom. Yeah, a little, I guess. I mean, what happens when she loses her cool and stabs someone in the

face? Ye, it's my point. Yeah, And like whether it's another employee that she gets into an argument with, it doesn't sound like she's good around people, you know what I'm saying. And this is an industry where you're gonna deal with a lot of people who are gonna be like, lose they're cool, like you did right, or be pissed off if you give them a you know, you ordered a cheeseburger and there's no cheese and how dare you? And I'm wanna throw everything at you. It's called a cheeseburger.

It's a good point. Yeah, yeah, yeah, or light big mac sauce, which either means zero. I say, you're probably gonna be working with idiots. You're gonna run into idiots, and I mean you sort of you sort of need to have patience for that. Yeah, all right, Can they fire her? Like? What if they fire her? Then I guess yes, I serve the time. It's not a bundant. It's not very clear here. I guess she has a window to work the hours, and so if they fire I guess she's gonna go find another one that's

within the timeframe. I think she has six months to do it. So yeah, yeah, it's good luck. All right. So here's my plan, Ross. I'm gonna rob a bank and then if I get if I rob a bank and a successful boom money. If not, I get arrested, and then they sends me to work at a bank. Now inside job, right, I have access to stuff, So then I rob the next bank. This is brilliant. Just gonna move to Ohio for this and get the same judge. But other than that, I think it's a full proof

plan that is gonna be amazing. I think you should just skip the bank and just try a casino. Try to rob the casino and you can. You can work the tables at the casino casino. Yeah, that's a good point. Now how would I get in there? I'd have to infiltrate like a gaming convention, come up with a new game, like maybe some dominoes or something. Right enough said, huh. Either way, you're gonna need a full scale replica of the casino vault, as you do. I was

gonna do one for the bank anyway. I do it for all of it, even shoplifting man, full scale target, figure out what you want, Walgreens, whatever, and then boom, do it to it. Hey, you want to be in this game or not? All right, I'm gonna go wrest the voice. So I'll see you guys in about six minutes. Seven minutes again, sitting on a porch, right, having this conversation. But it's true, so that's what the right, So off the air. Good morning everybody. By the way, I sound like death warmed over.

I feel relatively okay, which means I'll probably then overdo it today and then I'll feel like crap again. A man over the weekend. Ooh, get it started. It started almost immediately on Friday after lunch. Thus screw my whole weekend. But whatever, them's the perils. But we just got a week left for VAK, so no time off even though we're sitting on I think nine years of sick leave between us. But no, we're just having

this conversation. There was a wicked accident, a fatal crash on high Woods Boulevard, which you may or may not know where that is for a triad listeners, you probably don't, maybe even some triangle, but it's the it's the road that the radio station, the Raleigh station is on. Okay,

so the Raleigh station is on high Woods Boulevard. It runs between Atlantic and Capitol Boulevard, and strangely, it's the only market ever where I've ever worked in radio where if you say you're going across the street to the competitor, you literally go across the street. But I digress anyway. It's a business

park though, but it's it's it's four lane road. And so when I saw that at two am early Saturday morning, that a car a driver had lost control, hit that the medium, which I describe as a concrete medium, and it is. It's got a curb, but it's also plants, and so it does. There is a bit of a visual obstruction there unless you're in the right spot. So it's you know, it's a thirty thirty five mile an hour road, big turn lanes, kind of a crazy turn

the way that it works. But everybody gets by, except if you don't work in the park. You think it's the autubn I swear man, and I can't tell you the number of times over the what's how long does you show it on? Ten years? I can't tell you the number of times, especially at o dark thirty in the morning. It's like four something in the morning, five some in the morning, where I've seen people trying to hit eighty eight miles an hour to time travel or whatever they're attempting. I

am blown away that this is the first time I've heard these happening. I see this every single morning because I I'm in that lane. I'm in the right hand lane. You're light happen. I'm in Atlanta, the same exact direction. I take a left to get into high Woods and I'm going once again, I'm in the right hand lane at like four am, three thirty

in the morning every single day. This happens every single day, like, oh, real quick, it's two it's a double turn lane to go left off Atlantic unto high Woods right right, so you can be the left lane and right lane. I am in the right lane. I'm going the speed limit because and I have my turn signal lot because I am about to turn into smoke Tree Court, which is where the radio station is and that's where

I work. So I'm not gonna be going eighty miles per hour down this road because I'm gonna be turning there, and literally ten twenty seconds, there will always be, like clockwork, somebody right behind me on my ass in your because in my lane. Now, they could easily go around because it's two lanes, but they do not. People are so oblivious to the fact that people work here. There are place, this is a business here.

They only see high Woods between Atlantic and Capitol as a shortcut to go to four forty right right, and they they go like eighty miles per hour. So what happens is every day is I make that turn, I'm going the speed limit. I'm about to take a right in this smoke Tree And every single time there's somebody on my ass. I put my turn signal on,

and I can I can hear indicating that you're turning right. I can hear them in my head going and then they go into the left lane, which they could have been in the entire time right, but they chose to tailgate my ass. And then they sling shot like Ricky like like Ricky Bobby going off cal Nunton Junior going eighty miles per hour to get the cap I and go to four forty. And every single morning, I'm like, somebody is gonna get in an accident and die. So you're cause you're so impatient?

Wait, are you baker shaking this? I I would be I would be Colnunton Junior in this situation. Okay, yes, yes, yesoys, Okay yeah, every morning themselves are going to turn right to get on four forty. They're not going to do it for ten times longer than you are gonna be. They're just so impatient every morning and that the only they only see is a shortcut to get to four forty. And they're like, oh, obviously everybody else is doing what I'm doing because I'm self centered. In the

title and the world revolves around me. So why aren't you going eighty miles per hour to get to four to forty? Because I worked there, You jackass at turn man, that's stuff to do. I saw a story in prep last night, and I'm like, I am not shocked. I'm not surprised. It's such a non story in the in well, it's not a non story. Somebody lost their life, but in the grand scheme of does

everybody care? It's so this is a very selfish inclusion for Ross and I because I saw it and it it it welled up a range of emotion. I'll tell you what. Coming that way is one thing, but coming from the Capitol Boulevard side and then having to make the left into where the radio station is, you're kind of on that uphill and there's it's coming over the hill for you. Now, if people are doing thirty five, if you don't visually see vehicle, you should be able to make a left, no

problem. I can't tell you the number of times that I've seen somebody come over that hill, probably having just blown around you showing eighty and almost get absolutely t boned there because people are using it as a damn racetrack, and it would lend itself to it. It's it's it's it looks vacant. It's two lanes on both sides. It's really it's not super straight, but it's enough straight. I've clearly, I've clearly seen people drag racing on it.

But yeah, but what do you do? Just to clarify, we're not the only business along Highwoods, no. I. Just like any other radio station, there's tons of other like people's work here. Man, there's hotels, there's a hotel. What drives me insane is it is three point thirty four o'clock in the morning, there are no other cars on the road, and it blows my mind every single morning when there are two lanes. I've mentioned this before in the past. I stay. If I have the choice,

I will always stay in the slow lane. I will go to speed limitar five miles per hour over. And the reason for that is my father taught me to drive. My father before he went to Vietnam. He was fifteen years old and he was driving his brother's best friend's Corvette around Coroga Lake, New York, and they dared him to drive this car blindfolded. He did, and it flew off a ravine and they said, missus Hayes, your son is never going to walk or talk again. Flash forward about two

and a half three years. He's in Vietnam. He enlisted because he was a middle school dropout, and he said, the draft is gonna get me. Right. So my dad saw this horrible accident, and after surviving Vietnam, he learned, after getting shot three times, right, he learned that life is very precious. A year, life can disappear in a second. And he taught me the reason I drive. My father would do this. He worked for the state. He would leave every morning, his shift didn't

start to Lake six. My dad would leave at four point thirty four forty five every single morning and take his damn time. And I remember sitting in the car with him and him going, these people, man, they're so impatient. Everybody's impatient. Just take your time. And that's why I drive the way that I do. But what blows my mind is it is three point thirty four o'clock in the morning. There are multiple lanes. Why are you tailgating me? Because I go around there's nobody else on the road.

It's not like you can't get into the other lane to go around. If you want to go fast, that's your business. It's none. I'm at my business. Vote hates for sheriff. However, it's super weird to me when there's only two other cars on the road for miles and you were choosing to tailgate me. Just go around, dude, I'm going to speed limb. I'm taking my time. That's how I drive, and I enjoyed driving

that way. The other thing driving in in at that hour that always in the back of my mind was depending on how early it's how early you drive in and what your route is. There's also the possibility that I don't want to get pulled over because they think that I'm some drunk leaving the bar. You know what I'm saying, Yes, I do, yeah, and I have. It hasn't happened here. I got pulled over in Minneapolis like twice, No, three times. I got pulled over three times where it was

very clear. Now one was more of a I screwed up. Now it happens all the time when you work these hours, and it's happened to me. You'll be pulled over by the police because they're like, why are you out at this time, and it's like, you know, around closing time and they assume your league, you're coming home from the bar or something. Yeah, I mean Steve's aid all when he worked in news, he told me that the reason this happened because I was bitching about this like years ago,

because it hasn't changed. He told me that those people tailgame are the drunk people leaving the bar trying to They see you, and you're like, I'm just gonna stay behind this dude. Well, you know what, here'shere. It makes sense. Maybe they're not going to four to forty. Maybe

they're trying to go to the waffle house because that waffle house. If you go to that waffle house over a capital by the station at like three point thirty four o'clock, you know you want to get something early before you go in, you'll be the only sober one there. So yeah, now he's probably probably right. Man. All right, there we go, yep, old men yelling at the clouds. But whatever, Bob, what's up?

Oh? I think the judge, all the time he invested or she invested whoever it's in college and school and everything it takes to get to a judge couldn't have figured out in fifteen seconds that, uh, an equal punishment would have been sending him to jail, make him work in the cafeteria line. There's a there's her, it's her, it's a her, So the judge's her. Yeah, but you know, it's time off for good behavior if

you can manage that. And then you also get to experience either uh, if you do a bad job, oatmeal in the face by a recipient or getting shanked in the yard. So there's there's a lot of incentives to correcting your ways. I mean, that's uh, that's a that is a step up from getting guacam only thrown in your face. But yeah, yeah, I don't know, all right, Race, Yeah, no, no, no, I'm with you. I think that thank you for the call.

That would have been appropriate. You know what, Bob is absolutely right the judge. I don't know that the judge has that flex on the part of the well, it's under a year, so it would be the county. But yeah, don't don't make her somebody else's problem. I mean, you're kind of making her the corrections department's problem, but she's going to be their problem anyway. Make her, make her work, make her work in the most customer service facing portion, of chow line or concessions or whatever it is.

But don't like make that somebody else, some some business owners and the

people that work there's problem, Logan, go right ahead. Hey, I know you guys were talking about the actually high Woods, and I know you're referring to this stuff that happens like early in the morning, but I'm sure it happens all day and there's a there's actually a daycare on that on that road too, so it could be extremely bad if one of those kids got out there and someone's trying to so that daycare, man, that daycare is like Alcatraz. The fencing on that thing. I mean, you can tell

the daycares cogniture of the jackasses driving out there. That thing's got like very true, very true. That's got sniper towers. That thing's crazy. Man. All right, all right, thanks, all right, Russ. You ever noticed they fencing how extreme it is on that daycare down the road. It's it's it would have to be because Logan, I was about to say, it has to be because people use high Woods as a shorecut to get to four forty and like you said, it's like a dragstrip. It's great.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, all right, they don't have actual sniper towers, but they have the height to put them in. I'll tell you that much. All right, seven to eighteen, we're so wandering. I'm just like, make my voice work, all right? Coming up on the show. I had no idea this was the hold up on the Epstein list I had. I had no idea. I am so glad that we figured out what the problem is, because I think a lot of people are like, how do we still not have all the Epstein documents out there? But

and I guess I just assume that you know something. There must be shenanigans, powerful people protecting themselves or other powerful people. But no, it's purely procedural. I'll explain, or I'll let Dick Durban do it. Coming up, hang on, I was listening to it. Yeah, no, there is. There are some late night bars and whatnot over in that vicinity across.

I'll tell you what blew me away is when they put in the crosswalk with I've never seen a crosswalk with more signage than the one from that shopping center in Atlantic between where the UPS facility is like, and still nobody stops. It's just crazy, man. But no, those bars. There are

some late night bars. Over the years, there's been some problems. I don't know what the status is. I remember that one of our other stations was going to do an event at one of those bars, and then there was like a shooting a week before, and then they didn't do it. So I again, I don't know. It could just be somebody's late for work. I mean, but you know, to to the point we're making is visually, you'd think that road, if you're gonna speed, wouldn't be

that problematic, And people just don't seem to give a crap. In reality, it's it's dangerous for the sight lines, for poor ross just trying to get to work, for kids in the daycare. You know, just don't be a jackass, leave earlier, which I think most people do try to do, all right, So I was confused. I just assumed that they were not releasing the Epstein flight logs, the client lists and all that because powerful people were protecting powerful people. But no, it's it's just apparently it's

just a whoopsie, according to Dick Durbin. Hold on, here is that Dick Durbin being interviewed. Can I ask you a quick question, why won't you subpoena Jeffrey Epstein's flight logs? Who are you? Hillary Vaughan with Fox A Fox, of course, Uh, I don't know anything about his flight looks. Why won't you subpoena them? Why don't you want to know the issue? I know who Epsteine was, but I certainly don't know anything about the issue. Well, he was charged with sex trafficking, so why don't

you want to know who was utilizing his private plane? Never been raised by anyone. Well, Senator Blackburn has wanted to subpoena them, and there hasn't been a vote in your commission to me, not a word. Are you curious? Like what high profile or powerful people might be closeted predators and pedophiles? Doesn't that concern you? So why won't you subpoena them? If you can't, it's the first time anyone has raised it, Thank you Fox. Yeah, the audacity, I always ever brought it up that dude flew in

that plane? Oh my gosh, I mean I have a theory, no theories, hold on yeah, wait, hold on, let me do this. Wait, what's going on here? What do you think? Maybe? Uh, maybe he might be guilty of something. Maybe he flew in the plane and he went there. He's like, I've never heard of this. Who is it, Jeffrey? Who I mean? Did what? You could look more involved if you said it like that. So nobody's ever asked for

it. Oh, rost you think that we could? You think possibly we could be able to disprove that, you know, I think it might be possible. Yes, all right, Well we'll we'll, we'll, we'll, well, we'll think of something, we'll do some investigating and then when we come back after the break one O six one FM Talk in the Triangle and News Talk ninety four or five w PTI and the Triad. Okay, welcome back into seven thirty five. Somebody just wrote when he wrote it in an

email, says, mic Road hurts listening to you. Well, keep listening, sir, suck it up, make it through, appreciate it. So we were trying to figure out I think a lot of people have been trying to figure out why the Epstein flight logs and clientless for that matter, why that's not out there, And of course suspicions run it over that powerful people protecting powerful people because a little bit of a track record you know, forever

on this regardless really of whether it's America or basically anywhere else. You just you hate to see it most here because it's us. Oh you hate to say that, and it's infuriating. But little did I know. As Dick Durban explained to Fox News, the reason is one he doesn't know who Epstein is, or the flight thing or the the what's the thing with the wings?

And by the way, nobody's ever asked him for this stuff, which when you hear that, it makes you think that maybe just possibly, you know, I just again, I just want to be I want to be on the record here. I don't have any proof, mostly because they won't

release it. But for somebody in a position, for somebody with a pulse, I get let me rephrase this, for somebody with a pulse to be like Epstein, who I feel like you were the ones who were You were probably the guy pestering for a vacation date because you just wanted to go back. Man, That's how it looks, right. But to your point that nobody's ever asked for it, Marshall, black persons, we're in the business of issuing subpoenas now, and I should point out that this is in the

committee which Durbin chairs, and he's sitting there. Since we're in the business of issuing subpoenas, now here are a few more that I filed a subpoena to Jeffrey Epstein's estate to provide the flight logs for his I got playing given the numerous allegations of human trafficking and a sexual abuse surrounding mister Epstein. Ross. How long did it take you to get the AI to render that this

morning? Hello? It was it? I mean, I'm assuming that it was rendered from AI, because if not, it means that Dick Durban's full of crap. Oh my god, I've got bad news. He's sitting down, he's full of trap. Oh he is, okay, so weird. Well, you got to check these things now. Now, it was Dick Durbin sitting there in front of her during that, Yes, Oh, he was the chair of the committee. Unfortunate, and he's literally point of order to the chair. So she's speaking to him. Whoopsie, I think they

got that one wrong. So there you go. That's why they don't have him yet. Let me grab a call here, Janet. What's up? Hey, I was just sitting there listening to you talk about traffic and having the same complaints out dud. And my favorite thing though, is when they stay right on your butt like that and you're definitely, you know, not speaking up and you got your turn signalong and they almost rear in you and they fly around you beeping and flipping you off. You're in a truck,

so some media wants to slam into the back of you. It's his funeral, you know, right, there's that. They don't seem the care no, now I hear you. Yeah, it said some people just lose. Some people who are perfectly rational most of the most of the time I've seen just lose their minds in a car. And I when I was younger, I used to be a lot. I used to be kind of yelly. I wasn't like swerve around and chase a guy down, but I'd yell a lot. And then as I grow I'm like, this is what am I

doing? What is right? So now you have to be a very special kind of stupid for me to even more that you're out there. So anyway, all right, this career has really taught me a lot. Yeah, I imagine, Well, I thank you very much good to hear from you. I hadn't heard from me in a while, so I have a good Christmas if we don't talk again. Okay, yes, Sorr say, I'm all right, all right, there you go. Yeah, a little different

if you're ramming into the back of an eighteen. Not that I'm encouraging people to do that, but that's like when that that that horrible accident I saw on between Jacksonville and North Topsail, where a marine transport vehicle a Prius, had slammed into the back of it at a really high rate of speed. Obviously they were on that highway doing you know, seventy seventy five or whatever, and this this truck full of marines with a bumper made out of what's

the stuff in Wolverine. It's made out of that, I think, Adam, and I never told you, rightbranium slammed into the back of this thing, which probably had slowed down, you know, and obviously make a turn into one of the training grounds there, and it cut this prius in half.

Nobody survived in that except the marines who are all sitting in the back of this are relatively uninjured, and they're just standing there on the side of the road and the vehicle has like it's got like some paint missing from the bumper. So you know, it's the screw around find out unfortunately when you're in a hurry. So all right, oh what is this? Boston Paul? Your voice made me drink three hot Toddies stuff. I'm not shocked,

sir. Oh can you rost? Do you ever think of this? If Massachusetts does do the hallucinogenics and Boston, you know, Boston Paul's gonna go up there, right, take his Winnebago or whatever he's got up there, give himself a little hallucinating and some booze. I don't think he would do

that. I mean it came on the trip he would have. He's like, he thinks he's back in the beat taking down Whddy Boulger and he's at like a Denny's the entire time that or I a wife beater Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah yeah, or or Boston drunk, Boston Paul and a wife beater broke it breaks into Harvard. He's on a chalkboard in the hallway trying to figure out the Rymann hypothesis. But it's just chicken scratch and dragons are.

I'm just dragons are after him. Ought to be amazing. I'm assuming there's gonna be a few goodwill hunting trips going on if Boston makes that happen. So all right, seven kco Day radio program. We got to talk

about something. So the two hundred and fiftieth anniversary of America right around the corner, all right, and uh, they've been dumping a bunch of money into the planning committee, very excited about this, getting it all together, and they released the logo, the digital logo, which they say is a draft, and they wanted to know what the public thought. Ross did you

see this about domination this morning? I retweeted it, so if you haven't, for those of you listening out there, if you haven't seen it, I go to Twitter at Casey on the radio and give it a glance. It's maddening in how dumb it is. I'm sorry, and I have theories as to why there's some things missing from it that frankly should be in there.

And I'm sure it cost us like a billion taxpayer dollars, so I don't know that it did, but it's this has government work project written all over it, and I think a lot of it's supposed to be quote unquote private, even though government funds roll in. Go look at it. We'll talk about it coming up. But first, he wasn't supposed to be here today, but yet here he is, raced agic from the weather channel? Is is he how? I'm sorry? I may in fit him early.

Note we're on time. Good's man, not much, are you? I don't you can hear how I am? Yeah. I was gonna say, sounds like you're a little connection. No, it's awful, yeah, not as bad as the Vikings Raiders game. Awful? Yeah, yeah, whatever game I was watching. I had heard, like it's zero zero, and did he go into the fourth quarter zero zero? I think we're not speaking. Okay, well, hey, win to win, right, that's what I'm saying. Look, Ross won by three and that's a win. I

won by three and that's a win. It was fourth quarter, man, But yeah, it was it was. It did not going overtime. But yeah, and then you saw the drama in Kansas City, right, yeah? Was he really it wasn't really the off Was he really complaining about the off sides call? Yeah? Yeah, yeah, yeah, that was he said the in the presser, he said that it shouldn't have counted because it didn't affect the outcome of the play, like because it was like it wasn't

near the ball, it wasn't like pass interface. So are you what about every like defensive holding call ever right right right? Or what's the just in a penalty in general? Yea or a man, I've seen it. Or the call that I hate is like they'll do a bomb throw right, so everybody goes to block, and the center will come off the ball and he'll block into whoever he's blocking, and he'll get more than a few yards down the field, and then the call for ineligible person downfield and it's like,

but the play is forty yards away, there's nothing happening. So I just always say, you shouldn't have counted because we scored a touchdown? Oh okay, right, yeah, that I didn't quite understand. And then the fans are all piling onto saying the refs again, I'm like that because they're nos to it. They're spoiled there. There used to be in the on the other side of it, and they're like, what is going on with is

this the amount of pent up bills range that I saw on Twitter? Today is hey, but it's Monday morning and all three of us victorious, So everybody's happy today, right, no by by dying. So but other than that, well yeah, besides that, everything please make the weather too. Yeah, we'll make it better because we had so there's some very dangerous weather, obviously tragic weather, and obviously some destructive weather that went through. But

thankfully we are moving out of that. So we are, and we're moving out of it as we speak. The clouds will eventually be moving out also, so a little rough weather unfortunately over the weekend, especially in Tennessee, severe weather with fatalities. And we get through the next few hours. Most of the rest of the nation's going to be settling down pretty quickly. This

morning. The rain's pushing east out off the coast and moving up the east coast, so big travel trouble in and across the Northeast and New England for the next few hours, wind damage and power out and heavy rainfall, interior snow. But the rest of the week, I could say, sunny and in the fifties and low's in the thirties at night, and it's going to be pretty close as today we're all ready start to see the sunshine come out

from west to east. Starting to get that clearing now upper forties, somebody might hit fifty, but a gusty breeze. It's going to be a cold day today, twenties, Tonight, Tomorrow, sunny, Wednesday, sunny, Thursday, sunny, Friday, sunny. High's averaging in the upper forties to

low fifties each day. Low's upper twenties to low thirties. And I think it's even going to be dry through the weekend before we watch the next storm potentially developing in the Gulf and try to work north as we get into next week. So pretty tranquil week. As I had said, Now that the rain and severe weather's over with, things should be improved pretty quickly and going to be a great week for whatever you would like to do. This time

of years, we head toured the Christmas holiday. What I like to do is count these shows down till they can, So that's that's right. You can do that too. By the way, did I see that a town in Ireland got smoked with a tornado? Did you see this? That's not a thing over there, that's not a thing over there. And they're saying that the village had a tornado run through it. So yeah, yeah,

I didn't see that. No, I didn't catch it. It was all hung up in all the other stuff and the fact that I wasn't supposed to be here today, so I haven't gotten my I was looking at the pictures and it's this tiny little Irish town called like Leatrim Village or something, and the tornado smoked the pub and I'm like, oh, my gosh, that's gonna be like nobody was killed. So but that you took out that tub, I mean they're all gonna have to move. Man. That's like the

center of things in those little villages. Yeah, that's the center of town. Oh anyway, all right, thanks sir, I appreciate it. All right, Yeah, there you go. Race Agic from the Weather Channel. All right, coming up on the show The Worst grow Operation. How this dude didn't think he's gonna get caught is on me? Where is this?

Oh? And then we got to update you on the MLK home story, which might explain why there was a lot of info coming out initially and a guy tried to uh take Cuba kind of all that more coming up Casey O Day Radio program. All Right, welcome back. So I'm fifty four and I didn't want to. I didn't want to color your opinion ross. So you've had a chance to go check out the proposed America logo for the two hundred and fiftieth anniversary celebration. YadA, YadA. And what do you think

I mean? I mean, I think I could have made that on Canva. Really I could put that together. Dude, that is so bad. And by the way, here's paranoid me. You would think, yes, you have the red, white and blue colors. So basically it goes like I want you to go see it at Casey on the radio. It has

it has a it's a it's a digital graphic so it's moving. It's like a gift, and and it it has two fifty, the number two fifty in stenciled red, white and blue, and it kind of like spins in like a ribbon, right, and then all of a sudden, in gray almost black lettering, the word America appears above it. That's it. It's and at no point, and here's paranoid me, is a flag. And

I pardon me, but I feel that was intentional. And I feel it was intentional because of all of these stories that we've had to cover where somebody's driving along and there's a pickup truck with a flag on it and they lose their crap because they're triggered, or their neighbor has one at their house and they're triggered, and that angers me. Put the flag up there, don't not just the colors. Put the flag. You're not a peasing bit.

It's the it's the celebration of the country. And if somebody's mad over the flag, then they're gonna be mad over the flag. There's nothing you can do about it. But don't screw the rest of us, because keep in mind that celebrating the two hundred and fiftieth anniversary of the country is likely going to be prioritized by people who like the country, you know what I mean? That's like, that's like how would I that would be like that would

be like put letting the Red Sox fans have input on Yankees' graphics. Right Listen. The people protesting are going to protest no matter what, no matter what, no matter what. So if you're putting something together that's intended for people who like what's going on, then maybe you should put stuff in there. They like, Oh, it's so frustrating, dude. And by the way, what do you think that probably cost? Just that graphic, because

you know it's a it's a quasi governmental operation. I say at least one hundred mil. Oh no, dude, you think that's low end. Oh no, I know exactly what it costs. Oh, how well, please tell brillion three million dollar? Okay? Wow? Yeah, well you I would say, you're a little under. That's quite a number. Your mountain climber is dead. He just whooped right off the top once again. How much was that, mister president? Over brillion? Three trillion million dollars?

What the best part was watching people try to figure out how to write that out, because it has He's got multiple interpretations. Yeah, that's uh, that's biden inventing. Uh. I guess that's biden Omics. So what was he actually trying to talk about? Wildly unclear, but it had to do with uh trains UH in the passenger rail rail passenger service between Vegas and California,

which is probably not an underestimation. The entire train project, primarily the one from San Francisco down to San Diego, has been an over run, costs a nightmare the administration was actually promoting what was going to be the Vegas too. It doesn't even go into downtown LA but then you could connect to their inside service goes to Rancho Kucamunga, the fun name for a city which is way on the east edge of the La Metro there. So but yeah,

that's how much that train costs. And that's how much that graphic probably million dollars. Yeah, so there you go, check it out. I'm curious what you think. We'll be right back. All right, Good morning everybody, and welcome. It is mercifully our number three. So I couldn't stop talking for the day and or hopefully my voice will continue to improve. We'll find out there's nothing worse than staring at vacation or even a weekend.

They're not feeling well. So we're gonna be uber responsible this week and try to knock this out so that I can then go on vacation and eat and drink irresponsibly. So but hey, what are you gonna do? All right,

but you know you're stuck with me till then. And we were just talking about real quickly the graphic, the draft graphic that was put out by the committee preparing the two hundred and fiftieth Celebration of America, which I we've covered a little on this if you didn't know, the committee is stocked with woke folks. Okay, so just understand that this thing, this thing a

borderline. There's there's so much outrage that's probably still to come when they start incorporating like sixteen nineteen garbage into this, which by the way, would throw off their own math. But but now we get this graphic which which is like ribbon lines of red, white, and blue that spin over and make you the number two fifty and then America in black letters right above it.

That's it. And then it included the flag. And I see people defending this and they're like, well, just point the flag up there would be boring, Okay, But they obviously used elements of the flag which you're defending. And I think it's because people don't understand what the elements of the flag mean, contrary to popular belief. And I want you to look this up

because some of you are not gonna believe me. When the US decided to use the colors red, white, and blue in seventeen seventy seven for the flag, it was not for what the colors today are said to represent. That was actually associated shortly thereafter when they unveiled the Seal of America. And then we gave meaning to the colors. But technically red, white, and blue. We did those because we inherited them from some you know, some a holes. We just kicked out fun fact. So and then eventually and

then a lot of people conflated. But yeah, there was this a little bit of separation. And then the colors mean heartiness and valor. For red, purity, for white, and blue is justice and perseverance. I believe in vigilance, which we flush those down the toilet, it seems. But and then, but if you want to show unity in it, the unity is shown in two different ways. It's shown in the unity of the thirteen original colonies in thirteen stripes, but more importantly, a now a representation,

that's the that's the then. This is the now is the stars, which yes are white in color, but our representative of the United States. And how many there are are, so yeah, I'm on team. I think they left it out intentionally because people are whiny and there's too many woke folks in this and and to my point that I'll move on. I don't think that people who hate the country should be the one like, uh, ross, who do you hate the most? Who do you hate? That's by

the as the open ending question, who do you hate the most? That is not in radio? How's that? Who do you hate the most? It's a die honestly hard point. I can't. I just think it's somebody you hate anybody. Captain Jane Way, Okay, do you think you should be in charge of planning her birthday party? Yes? I should, he should, You should give me that power. Yeah, but you understand what's coursing through your veins now, is not one is not? Hey, I want to put on a great party, right, it is not. Oh,

it is not. So you're gonna enjoyed the brig. It's gonna be so good. Is that where the cake is? No, that's where the air lock is though. Oh wow, Why would you put the cake next to the airlock? Seems responsible? Cake is good, tastes so good in space? Yeah, yeah, an ice cream cake, because then you know that it's gonna be That's why you put it next to the airlocks. So it taste cold, right, the sheer coldness of space. Oh, dear

God. Now people are arguing with me over the flag thing. I'm literally I literally just called up because I want to make sure I didn't screw this up. So I'm literally just calling it up from our own US capital people. But who knows, maybe they're wrong whatever, Ah craziness. I know people are trying to figure out the dollar amount for Biden. Don't your brain

will hurt. I already tried, just don't dollars. That actually was gonna be Ross's Christmas bonus, but instead of right with Jelly of the Month. So I hope he likes that. That is the gift that keeps un giving clerk. By the way, By the way, you want to hear Ross ruin a holiday classic for you, I think it's time. I think it's time. He was telling me this after the show Friday, and you have to explain that to that. I don't think. I don't think I'm ruining

it. I think I'm expanding upon it because we have watched The Santa Claus more times than I can count. Look, it's a great, great movie. I tim Allen's got some good Christmas. Tim Allen is a great Santa. I E feel like Scott Calvin before he's sinn Us Great. We like the second movie. The third movie is sort of like Godfather three where we don't talk about it in our household, like Martin short. But let's not

go there. So we were watching the Santa Claus for I don't know the billion time, right, and we started, like I noticed before in the previous scene, there's you know, he's late, he's going out, he's got to get home to get his kid from his evil wife with the weird Uma Thurman pulp fishing haircut, whatever, and so you know, they they show a little girl in front of a window where like a toy store or whatever, and she's got elf ears, and we never really paid that much

attention. We said, okay, that's sort of weird. And then we started watching. There was a scene where you know, he screws up dinner and they go out to Denny's and they walk in there and there's a kid. Marky pointed out, she said, is that an elf And I never noticed it before. And there's this little kid with ginormous elf ears, puts on his coat. He's all by himself, and of course the elves and the Santa Claus look like children if you remember, Yes, that's how it

is. So they look like kids. So this this elf, it looks it's either an elf or it's like a young Leonard Nimoy as Spock right, he sort of looked like he's got these ginormous ears. And the kid puts on his coat, puts on his scarf, walks to the to the exit, turns and stares at Scott and his son for a very eerie amount of time and walks out. So we're like, that is definitely an elf. And we did some research on this, and it turns out there are six

hidden elves in the Santa Clauz movie. Yes, there's six of them, and several of them show up apparently stalking Scott Calvin before he is even aware of Santa Claus's actual existence. So you need to explain the premise of the movie just real quick in case nobody's ever seen that. Sure, so it's

important. So Scott right, So Santa Claus falls off Scott's roof. Scotch he puts on this suit and he triggers the Santa Claus like a clause, like a legal contract c L A U S E, and he becomes Santa Claus he now has to do all of the he is the new Santa Claus. And that's because because Santa falls off his roof and he puts the suit on. So before this happens, there are several elves stalking that are stalking Scott Calvin. Arkady yourself at the toy store. So the question is why

are these elves stalking and around Scott Calvin before he Santa? Are they aware that he is going to be the next Santa Claus. If they are aware that he's going to be the next Santa Claus, why is it because they pushed Santa off the roof with Santa murdered by his staff and underlings for some reason, Yeah, why why else would they be stalking Scott Calvin? Why

are they around him? I don't understand this. Maybe it's like a Midichlorian thing is because on Disney Plus there's a new Santa Claus, y serious, and they sort of go into detail about how you know that's that's sort of exactly what it is, like Santa Claus Mediclorian's right, He's basically the people out there who have the right makeup to be and perhaps the elves can detect that and that's why they're around it. But if that was the case,

let's go down that path. If that was the case, when didn't they tell the current Santa before Scott, Hey, we are detecting this dude who has the Santa power and it might be your time to go. Or maybe they're not telling it because they want him to die. And if you remember, when Scott gets to the North Pole with his son on that Christmas morning, they never mentioned the previous Santa. They never talk about the previous Santa. The slay goes down and the elves erupt in joy, Yay, Sanna

is back. Not like hey, where's the old Santa or what happened to the old Sanda. It's just like, hey, that dude is dead, moving on and we're moving on. They don't mention him. You never hear anything, and you talk about him. Is it because they murdered him? I need to I need to know. Try call call Tim Allen's press people

and try to get an interview and then we'll just do this. Somebody told me that they go into detail on this on the Santa Claus Disney Plus series, and I don't recall, And maybe you have to go back and watch the first season, but noticing the six hidden elves that are in and they're definitely elves, and then you start wondering why are they around him and stalking Scott before Santa falls off his roof. They know they know he's going to be the next Santa, so you just go straight to murder. Well,

I mean, what else would it be? I don't know. I yeah, maybe isn't that weird to you? It is a little weird couple thoughts. The midichlorian thing I kind of went to, But then you have to go the motivation like why why are you? And then there's a then you went to a dark place and my horrific thought was maybe they're trying to figure them all out so they can order sixty six. Right, Hey, they just the elves are tired of being the the assistance, you know what I

mean, Maybe they're pissed off. Maybe they didn't like the old Santa and they're It's like, you have to go, maybe labor organizers got to them say this is a class thing, and they're the they're the you know, the fight for fifteen people, and Santa's the and keeping them down. Man. But we thought we were losing our minds. Really, there's no way those are elves. But there's been like whole articles written on the hidden elves.

So there you go. Either it's a fun search for the elves with your kids, which would be, hey, tell you to watch the movie, or you're like, was there a trying elation to crossfire on Scott Calvin's roof and they took him out? Yeah, they assassinated him. Sit down with the family, be like, hey, uh see, if you all can find the elves with little kids, would love to do that. And then when they're done, explain it's because the elves murdered Santa and let me.

Tim Allen's on record saying that the original script, because they did a lot they cut a lot out, was a lot darker than what eventually came to theaters. Yeah, I don't know what can't look what came to theaters is a classic unquestioned. Oh it's a top three Christmas movie. I love it. So there you go. All right, So that, yeah, that's that's the that's the theory. By the way, I still think your Durban theory is sound. I have to rank your theories. He was totally

on that plane. Do you think he was. I think he got auto upgraded too. I think you had such status always. I just love the fact they're like, hey, how come you're not, you know, looking into this case more? How come we don't know who's on the listening. He's like, I don't even know what you're talking about. Well, listen, dude, that was that's such a guilty, guilty rebuttal all right. Eight nineteen Casey O Day Radio program. Uh so, uh, some dude

tried to conquer Cuba. Didn't go well, didn't go well, but uh a for effort will explain. Hang on one six one FM Talk and PTI, two stations driving the best ind talk. This is Cacy O Day and Carolina's Morning News. Four Oh no, NBC News is but her Ross. You're lucky. I'm not going to send this to you can put in because you need all the bleeps. But that'll be important to the story. So

hang out. First, this a South Florida man was taken into custody I guess anyway by officials in Cuba after they say they thwarted a terrorist plot. This is crazy, all right, So here's what they say happened. Basically, dude, who is he is Cuban heritage and had lived in Cuba before coming to the US, and now he's a US citizen, but still not happy with Cuba. And so according to officials, and again a lot of this is from Cuba, but some of it is confirmed by our own state

department, because it's a whole thing. Authority said that on Saturday, See where did he? All right? So I just want to I want to be able to tell the story of what happened. They got it split up here, all right. So they alleged the man, a Cuban, a former Cuban who now lives in Florida, jumped on a jet ski, busted ninety miles actually a little more than that because where he went to Cia in Fuegos, which is oh no, Okay. So he landed on the north

and made his way there to the south central Okay, all right. So but he didn't go into Havana or anything. He went elsewhere, armed with quote, several handguns, ammunition clips and ammo. Landed his jet ski, jumped off, then attempted to recruit Cuban locals, rule locals that he ran into to assist in helping to overthrow the Cuban government or at the very least help him acts of violence, arson and vandalism. According to that, this

is the Cuban side. I'm trying to split up who's saying this because I don't buy what the Cuban government says, but it does sound like this dude did go over there with some thoughts. Apparently, several other Cubans residing both in South Florida and a couple in Cuba, were also under investigation for their involvement. Yeah, I don't know if you're familiar with boat landings and attempted overthrows of the Cuban government, but you're gonna need more najet Ski usually have

you ever? Have you ever you ever actually dug down into all and looks some of it's mythological, some of it's real whatever, But all the different ways they tried to kill Fedel Castro over the years, including CIA, I mean, exploding cigars is not a joke. That was a thing, But there's so many other things like he liked, he liked to dive and collect like lobster, spiny lobster and stuff too. So they wanted to like have a murder bullusk or something like a bomb down there where he would dive going

for lobsters. But like it's a big clam, but it's it's a bomb too. They were going, they were going wacky on this stuff. Man, it's fascinating. The problem is, well, some of those are probably true. Castro's people kept adding to it because it added to the mythology. They've tried to kill him a thousand times, right, that's what you do when you're a dictator. But the cigar and the the cigar and the and the exploding sea life, I can't remember what it was that was true.

That's in CIA documents that got released. And then what was the other one? Oh, they had some. It was the whole We have a friend, a musician friend who knows it was going to get close to him. Then the guy was supposed to give him some poison, but he he wasked out. So there you go. All right, hang loose, We'll be back to your day. Smarter one six one a f M Talk and News

Talk ninety four to five w PTI more with Casey starts. Now. I don't know how this dude thought he wasn't going to get noticed, but you know, he rolled the dice didn't work out, so uh, police in Stewart County, Tennessee Rule Tennessee, I can say that word arrested a Chinese national who, according to authorities there had the largest marijuana grow operation in the history of that part of Tennessee and was doing it out of a church that

was booby trapped. And the law enforcement may show up at some point. This story's crazy man. Fifty five year old Ruan Huang, a foreign national from China, was arrested after the police became suspicious. I think people became suspicious because let's just let's just be honest. You move into a small town, even if you sound look root for exactly everything the same as in that

town, people still want to know more about you. There's a certain nosiness level, which, by the way, isn't necessarily a bad thing because it also in a very small community, ingratiates people to others, and they can rally when they need to. So if you're a new guy in town, you got the old church out there, you got a bunch of equipment going in, and you're from China, you know you'd call that racism or profile or whatever you want. But their curiosity isn't necessarily even one that's evil.

They just want to know. Somebody moves into a town, a little town, that's the talk of the town man, let's see here. Yeah, but then he converted the whole church into a booby trapped grow operation. That's what's super crazy. I'd point out. The church is still in use, so people are going to church and what they don't realize is that they're near booby traps and there's all the marijuana under them. Tennessee's got some stories,

man, There's there's a whole host of murders. It's a whole I would not have near enough time to explain it to you, but basically there's a huge conspiracy theory in a couple of Tennessee counties which are not far away from this, where there was a huge drug operation that basically all the the like the chief of police and even some state officials as well as the mayor and others were involved in and some kids saw what they were doing because they were

on some railroad tracks. And then the kids got murdered. And that's a pretty famous famous thing there. But yeah, yeah, this one right here didn't work. Stuart County was right up on the Kentucky border by the way, too, so kind of centered up there, all right. Eight eight eight nine three four seven eight seven four. So yeah, that got busted there. Down in Goldsboro, authorities are looking for a man who accidentally shot a woman at the Longhorned Steakhouse. And I read that, I'm like,

what do you mean accidentally? All right? So I went like this Cornet Police parking lot. Steakhouse guy dropped a handgun as he was I'm sorry, he dropped in the bar area, excuse me. The gun hit the floor, discharged and hit a woman sitting at a nearby table. And for those of you who have a concealed carry permit, you know that that's a whole lot he's at the bar if he was drinking, which it appears that he

was already where, yeah, that's a no go. But the part where it then fell to the ground and discharged and hit a woman, who, thankfully mind her injuries in her leg, passed through. She didn't even go to the hospital, by the way. But then the dude just picked up his gun and left. So and the suspect description is a short man wearing all black. Really, how many people were in the Longhorn Steakhouse at let's see, six forty seven pm on Saturday night. I have to assume that's

my busiest time for them. Wrong. Here a long orange steakhouse just before seven o'clock on Saturday night. That place has to be full, right, And I have to assume there's cameras. You're telling me the best description is that he was dressed like Johnny Cash, but but was tiny. But it was short. That's it, huh, guys sitting at the bar, probably talking to the bartender or the very least maybe say even some of the people

around him. So we'll see. But but you know, there is a certain authenticity at an uh, at an Old West themed steakhouse with the you know, the air and discharge of a weapon. So I guess, I guess, I guess he got that going it. It wouldn't happen Olive Garden. Maybe maybe like a car bomb, wire and car bomb, but yeah, but definitely come on, Well, well what if I go get the

massage in the back room and that'll happen to me? Right? The guns at the Olive Garden are they keep them locked up behind the tank of the toilet with the pull right? Yeah? Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. If you ever go in there and somebody comes in doing something you don't have your piece, that's where they have them. So dude, I'm just

saying it fits at the theme a little. But I also don't believe that the totality of the description you have at a busy restaurant during the busiest times of the day of the week, which somebody who's been sitting at the bar, is the clothes and the height. I'm sorry, I don't call me suspicious, and I I'll let you guess which outlet I got the story from.

And finally, this real quick before we get into weather. So the the person who attempted to burn down mlk's house or birthplace home, which is a National Historical Landmark, is run by the Park Service, identified as twenty six year old US Navy Vet Lenisha Shanteres Henderson. I get all sorts of mental health vibes here, So I understand that all of that. I'm just

pointing out that there were a lot of people. This is why if you have the info and you had to just get it out there, a lot of people were using this to you know, basically, it was you know, some white supremacist and they're doing that and that's not the case here,

but it also doesn't mean that she's not dealing with some stuff. And if she is, is a veteran dealing with some stuff, then that's why you should get that out there so that people, if they want to feel empathetic or go with this story, can maybe be empathetic in that direction, which is an issue that continues to be problematic and an issue that even you know, do you remember how shocking it was to hear what was going on at

the with the Veterans Administration, the hospitals and everything that isn't all fixed. That isn't all fixed, so h yeah. But instead now we had to go all uh oh, it was the granddaughter of the guy who shot him. No, which is literally literally one of the things that I saw floating around. So make of that, which you will. All right, a forty four raced agic for the weather channel. He's here, so because my voice is going to quit right now, so I give us the weather sir.

All right, man, Well, it's start to look a lot better now, seeing breaks of sunshine more tryad than we do triangle. And since I was a little behind today, since I really wasn't supposed to be here, finally starting to go, see here we go. He'll cry for me, right, I've just dug into the severe weather reports. The confirmed tornado in from a wake count near the Garner area EF one estimated wins at one to ten track, about one point five miles from the start of It's also

in Tennessee. In case it hadn't heard, that's where the deadly tornado outbreak was. Clarksville is going to be an EF three. I'm not unprecedented for this time of year to get severe weather, but now we're done, and we may be done for the next five to seven days with any precipitation. Chili nights, I would say, chili days, but nothing too out of whack for this time of year. Might be at normal or slightly below it.

Today below normal the mid upper forties, maybe fifty, but augusty breeze and more and more in the way of sunshine is going to make it feel colder. We're on in the twenties tonight, close to fifty, Tomorrow li to mid fifties Wednesday, upper forties to low fifties for Thursday and Friday, mostly sunny. Each one of those days is a big area of high pressure settles in lows in the upper twenties to low thirties. We can't even look

good. Maybe slightly milder, and then we'll watch for what's going to be a big rain event for Florida late week and into the weekend. Low pressure in the Gulf may try to come up the coast, so we'll have to see where that goes, and that'll lead to a whole lot of fun as we get into the weekend for some and maybe early next week here, we'll have to see how close and if that load does develop. So that's it, casey, You's gonna be a pretty tranquil week overall. Okay, thank

you, Dante. We appreciate it. All right, you understand that reference. No, but I pretend like I did. I order you. I order you to watch the movie Clerks. Okay, what is it called Clerks? Clerks? I'll do that. Okay, all right, see you feel better? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Thirty six. He's not even supposed to be here today. Thirty six, thirty six, okay, all right, all right, here we go, and good morning. It is Bloomberg

Update now with Jeff telling ye what's happening. Good morning, Casey. Stock's advanced in Friday's trading, but the future suggests the bit of caution has set in among investors over the weekend. Now futures are down nineteen points at the moment. People who responded to Bloomberg's latest Markets Live Pulse survey or upbeat about the stock market and the economy. Respondents think the S and P five hundred index will hit a record high in twenty twenty four and that a recession will

be avoided despite more weakness on the part of consumers. Macy Shar's been rallying this morning and pre market trading on news that the department store chain is received a buy out offer. Sources tell Bloomberg that ark House Management and Brigade Capital Management are willing to wager that Macy's turnaround effort will have a better chance of success if the company goes private. They've offered to buy the retailer for five

point eight billion dollars. There's been no comment from Macy's, ark House or Brigade. Things got a little easier for would be home buyers last month. That's not to say easy, but just easier. Zilo reports mortgage interest rates ticked a little bit in November, but price reductions became more common. The typical monthly mortgage payment on a home fell about one and a half percent. Smile Direct Club, shutting down, the tooth alignment startup that sought to upend

the orthodonics industry, is bankrupt. The company has announced it will liquidate. This is a huge fall for Smile Direct Club. It was once valued at nearly nine billion dollars. Planning to travel over the Christmas or New Year's holidays,

you have a lot of company. Triple A predicts a record seven and a half million people will fly between December twenty third and January first, and one hundred four million people will drive to a holiday destination and at Casey Southwest Airlines and its flight attendance union will have to return to the bargaining table. Southwest attendants have rejected a tentative contract that would have given them an immediate twenty

percent raise and annual raises of three percent through twenty twenty eight. The rejection does not give workers the ability to strike. The union's oh Shating Committee has posted a video on Facebook saying that nothing is going to happen over the holiday season. So we'll stay tuned in early twenty twenty four. Casey, okay, all right, Jeff, thank you very much. We'll chat tomorrow, sir. Sounds good. Have a good day. All right, there you

go, Jeff Ellinger, Bloomberg News. Oh man, this is getting crazier. Ross. Do you see this report? Okay, I want to make sure that I have this correct. CBS Sports NFL reporters Okay have now deleted a series of tweets in which they allege that the the individual called offsides Tony Cadarius Tony did in fact. So here's the way it works. If a player lines up in the NFL, they can look at the at the line official they got one on each side and and ask them. And they do

it through a series. You know, they don't yell. If they kind of nod at them, good, basically, am I on the correct side of the line of scrimmage? And then they'll tell them. But if they don't ask, it just is what it is. And it's if you watch the I in no way, shape or form do I hear him ask? So when they make this thing in that game and they're like Andy Reid saying, you know, I don't know they they didn't tell it, they didn't

notify us before they called it. That's not actually how it works. But the fact that CBS News reporters, remember these are reporters, were tweeting he did in fact confirm seems almost totally based on what they were told by the

chiefs. And they have now deleted the tweets. So if you were a person who would think that the fix is in and the NFL, along with the media, really ordain who should be the winners versus the losers in the same way that you see the political media do this, you would be right to be paranoid. It's like, it's kind of like the un Remember when COVID started and then they were just posting whatever China wanted. CBS News reporters

out there posting whatever the chiefs won. I can't imagine why people are paranoid about this stuff. Uh, it's bad. It doesn't sound as bad when I explain it, but if once you think it through for a moment, you're like, that is pretty bad. But we've seen it so much on the on the politics side of stuff that maybe we don't care. And NBC News, speaking of bad reporters, NBC News is demanding the Trump campaign take down a fake clip of their reporter. All right, so I watched this.

I'm not gonna play it for you because it's there's so much obscenity in it, which should be a good indicator that it's not actually their reporter. It's a cutshot of the opening from the uh. This is going back to the third debate, and there were Porter Garrett Hawk or the Capitol Hill correspondent, And it starts with the actual liveshot of him previewing the debate, just very basic, Hey, here's what's going on. Here's what poll numbers look

like right now. And then the visual cuts to the debate stage and it is though there's a clear change in Hawk's voice because now it's a I generated where he's introducing the people on stage. He says, this is Ron DeSantis, an establishment rhino who wears insuls to look taller. That's Nicky Haley. Nobody really gives a crap about her. I'm paraphrasing this by the way. They I think with Vivic they said he was there to deliver pizza, and

Chris Christie was there to eat it and I can't remember. Oh and then they cut to Tim Scott. They're like, who the hell is this? So knowing that in your mind for a moment, do you entertain the thought in fact that is the NBC News actual report. Of course you don't. Of course you don't. And off NBC News in their battle with Trump,

wants to get into arguments about, you know, mocking stuff up. I would point to you the George Zimmerman thing nine call and several instances during the Trump Trump when he was in office,
