No, no, I don't know. No, no, I'm not gonna reward steal it an hour of sleep. Man, I hate it. I mean, just pick one or the other. I don't care which one it is. But here we are, Happy Monday, everybody. It is the CaCO Day Radio program post time change. Although, to be fair, I don't know why it wasn't like haunting my brain before this, but Ross I realized this morning because I was moving some star. I was moving some stuff around on my calendar for a sales thing we have, And I don't know

why I didn't realize it. We just have a week and then we're on vacation. Why my brain didn't register that last week, I don't know. So yeah, one week vacation. So uh, where are you guys going? You guys are trekking to Antarctica? Or Marky is doing his visiting family in Louisiana and I'll be taking care of Lincoln. So you know, it's like we always do. We have to divide up our trips home because it's so hard to travel with him. So you're taking him to Antarctica and I'm

confused, aren't I? So so you're gonna, yes, you got you got Lincoln. She's doing the family visit, but I don't know why for whatever reason last week, like in my brain, I didn't at any point, which is probably good. You know how much it sucks when you're excited for something and then time starts moving slow and I'm like, oh, yeah,

that's right. We got five shows and they're on vacation. So anyway, she doing louis I Well, you've said where she travels, so she doing Louisiana or she's doing the Tennessee thing, so uh yeah, Louisiana. Oh okay, all right, we'll t hard to say, Hi, did the Duck Dynasty people? So I don't they live like right near her family or whatever, or maybe in like some giant mansion or something. Yeah,

yeah, they say hello to them, So all right. Well, anyway, as I was putting it together, I'm also trying to carve out, well, what's the show going to look? Like? How many? How many segments do you are you gonna need for your oscar coverage? Coverage? Maybe one at least one for John Cena naked right but not speaking in Chinese, which is all I know. I know that about the oscars, and then I know the the one director who's audio we're gonna play at himself.

An interesting little little segment there. So there's that. Well we'll get to details there. I didn't watch any and and I was thinking about it. I remember back in the day how much I liked The Man Show, which I guess speaks to little horrible human being. I am right if I don't know that I watched it live necessarily. But on Comedy Central at that time they had like five things, right they had. I remember when Comedy Central

launched, and I was a big fan of this. It was basically twenty four hours programming, but like ten hours were infomercials and I mean like legit ones, and then of the other fourteen hours, ten hours was just SNL reruns. And then there was like three shows on Comedy Central. The obviously the Daily Show back in the day with like Craig Kilbourn, and then it

went on to John Stewart half hour comedy special or whatever. They would do the comedy and then like they had Man Show, which had been was on another it was on another network, I think, and then they would air it and then or maybe and then they became the originator and like that was it that was Comedy Central in a nutshell. So man showed, come on, what was what was the what was the name for the the the women on the show? The was it Juggies. I'm just trying to think of

all the elements there. And now, because everyone likes to post the Jimmy Kimmel did blackface, uh norm alone thing they would jump on trampolines. No, no, I was, trust me. I was well aware of that aspect. But and then there was a dude who was dressed like a carnival monkey. What was he the conductor or whatever? And then yeah, it was, hey, let's go to juggies on trampolines. I think it was Juggies whatever. I liked that show, and I also look, I also

understood that, and this is really important. I also understood not in the toxic masculinity you know bs we discussed now, they were also it was also parody of dudes, do you know what I'm saying? Like it was it was intentionally over the top, and I don't want to say chauvinistic necessarily, but it was it was also a little bit of parody of that. And now, if you tell me, Jimmy Kimmel's I just I don't want I don't want anything to do with it. That dude lost me when he started

crying over that line that was shut. But oh by the dead is what was the lion's name? I can't remember, he said there doing the monologue, he just like burst into tears. Yeah, yeah, well I think that dude, I think that dude thought there was a redemption arc for him because of the Karl Malone stuff. Do you know what I'm saying? Right? So he's like, oh, yeah, no, there is. We did have a recurring segment of me and black face, but I'm woke now,

so fear not. And the irony is the thing that Jimmy Kimmel did that morally bothered me is do you remember when the Man Show started, and like he he just he did these little cut ins on his wife, who was She wasn't an actress, she wasn't a comedian, she was just she was just somebody who married Jimmy Kimmel and had kids and supported him through all of this. And I remember the first chink in the armor of Jimmy Kimmel

was not the way he went super woke. It was when it it became apparent that he he started to his career blew up, and the very same wife who he'd have the bits with like like and the and the the. The flavor of the bits was she's not a Hollywood person. So here's Jimmy Kimmel's crazy life. With how she's dealing with it. I thought they were

funny. And then he starts railing Sarah Silverman, which I believe is the technical term, and she like she did, she made some like comedy bit about it, and then he was he was ha high in it while he was still living with his wife, and I'm just like, what are you doing dude? Like I was able to separate the parody level chauvinism within that show with that family ending incident and I and I remember that bothered me. I'm not even married, and I'm just like it, what a slug.

And then now we're in uh, you know, we're in this woke wonderland and it's just like whatever. So long story short, I was sitting down right for the show. Oh yes, say ross, I made myself a nice little, nice little cocktail, was going to get through this, and the TV burst into flames. It was and then I hear a noise from the from the bedroom that TV's on fire. I was not able to watch it. So you're gonna have to do the rundown this morning. What do

you need? Like three segments? Is that going to be adequate for your Now, I can do like one. I can do like fifty seven seconds. Oh oh okay, all right, I will sum up the Oscars in one cut, in fifty seven seconds. One. This is all right for you TikTok kids. It's the fifty seven second challenge, which actually I don't know I want to say that as a dude, but we'll we'll see if he's able to do it, and I'll give you a rundown. Coming up next it is the CaCO Day Radio program. Last night was the Oscars.

Obviously, I'm sure you all were very excited, had your big watch parties. Unfortunately all my TVs burst into flame, so war issue. I think, I don't know, I'm not in charge, but luckily I can. You know, teamwork makes the dream work. Ross you guys, you watch the Oscars. I carved out the rest of the hour for you to summarize. But fifty seven seconds, huh. Now we're actually gonna watch but all of our devices burst into flames as well. Oh my gosh, it's I

think it's that at that point, it's a known software. It sounds like some sort of like a cyber attack or something on our individual devices. Just you and I fricking Chinese man. Okay, all right, I did. I didn't know so, but apparently we're able to get fifty seven seconds. It's oh yeah, it came in like I googled around the ax. I just put in Oscars and whatever came up first. I loaded that. Oh okay, what a day. Man. Sorry, I'm literally I'm having to

like having to re load down my button bar. What is ROW? What is ROW? Did people touch the equipment on over the weekend? What the hell happened? Man? All right, there we go. All right, so sorry it was loaded and then I literally went to access it and it's like you need to restart bur Okay, all right, done, done, done. So let me let me start with this. So yesterday, the Oscars, right, I know you're you're all big fans. And what is

this guy's name? Jonathan Glazer? You probably heard that name before. I've heard that name before. I don't know. I can tell you all the movies he's done, but this year was I get, what's it's passion project. I guess it'd be the word the description I'd like to use in Hollywood. So he had a passion project and made a film about the Holocaust. And there's one thing about Hollywood is if you're a Jewish director, at some

point there's almost a rule that you have to do a Holocaust movie. And I remember, and by the way, I'm not the one who said that. Steven Spielberg said that just for those you were like, ah, let me misrepresent what he's saying. Steven Spielberg said that at the time. I don't know he he kind he made a Holocaust movie. He probably heard it ross. You ever hear of Steven Spielberg's Holocaust movie? I did. We

had to watch in eighth grade. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, you know it as Schindler's List. So anyway, and and whatever, that's fine, right. If I was a director, I think at some point i'd have to do Actually, I don't know, there's not enough Irish directors doing movies about all the crap the British pulled. But you know, you've got your own heritage backstory there and obviously Schindler's List. Yeah, in between having a watch should obviously in class, and it's pretty pretty heavy subject matter

for an eighth grader. I'm at least glad that they're showing it. Remember that poll we did where like the majority of people under the age of twenty five didn't know about the Holocaust, so right, But as a history fan, I want to know whether it's the Holocaust, the siege of Ireland, the disillusion of Irish nobility which directly impacted my family bragging anyway, we have

a busted ass castle that still sits on family land over in Ireland. But when I say it's busted, I mean because the British came and literally destroyed it. So but whatever, right you want to make those passion projects you want to make, even because Glazer makes more traditional films whatever you know, Hollywood blockbuster style, and that's fine. But this year Glazer directed Zone of

Interest, a film about the life of a Nazi commandant in Auschwitz. So from the perspective and to some extent, that was part of Schindler's List, Right, what's fines right is the actor's name who played the the head of the concentration camp. There in in Schindler's List. So that's the perspective. This dude lived literally next door to Auschwitz. Now I haven't seen the movie, but that's it. So so anyway, he won. It was best

International. They don't call a foreign film. They called international now, so whatever instead of foreign language. So anyway, Yeah, so Jewish director making a film about the Holocaust passion project, different from what a lot of his his movies are, and had a rather interesting award acceptance speech. You ready for this, all right, buckle in kids. Right now we stand here as men who refute their Jewishness and the Holocaust being hijacked by an occupation which

has led to conflict. Oh wait, hold on, I just thought that Ross has said some of them here. What is it? I think you're confusing Brian Glazer, who's done like, you know, big action films, with this guy who's done like artsy films. Oh, Brian Glazer, there are two different people. I had no idea. I also realized that I don't really care. That's not that's not a pushback on you. But I'm now processing that are they two different people? I don't know? This is

how little I care about Hollywood and in most cases. So has he only done artsy fartsy stuff. Yeah, Like I'm looking at his filmography and I don't recognize anything. But Brian Glazer's done like Pirates of the care being big moment, different people. Oh Jesus, you know I'm not going to retain that information, right, all right? So Brian Glazers pirates dude, and Jonathan Glazier's artsy dude. Well, still right, I think everything else holds

true. Right, So the you know, the Steven Spielberg's quote if you're a Jewish director, I don't have the exact quote in front of me. He's just like, basically, you're Jewish director in Hollywood. At some point you want to you wanna channel your heritage, YadA, YadA, YadA and what whatever, which is fine, you know, fine whatever. I'm a history nerd, so I could, I could. I can get in on that, all right. So two different glazers look at that. For all

of you tuned in this morning, you just learn stuff. So the director who's speaking, who I just I thought based on his name, is the same dude who did the action movies. You're telling me. There's like three different people, all right. So confused together. Yeah, so the guy that was on that you're talking about when the oscar played the audio here in a moment, if you're not all right, that's Jonathan Glazer, right,

you are confusing him. You have the name in front of me. Yes, you were confusing him for Brian Grazer, who's worked with Ron Howard and all the big movies that you're thinking about. But there's another guy you could confuse him with. There's there's a Brian Glazer. So there's Jonathan Glazer who

won Brian Glazer. But you're thinking of Brian Grazer. Grazer, so two Glaziers and a Graziers, which correct, yes, okay, ah, then the difference between the two Brian's is about twenty years and I don't know about a trillion dollars. Well yes, when I did look at the movie running down there, so all right, you know, everybody applauds, so I don't know that it matters here. So the director's on this stage, who is now Brian Glazier right now? Guy speaking is Jonathan Glazer. All right?

So anyway, now your your point on his audio still stands though, right, yeah, oh yeah, yeah, hang on for that all right, So for those of you making notes a home show, all right, so there you go, that being said the dude speaking Jonathan Glazer. Right, I went, okay, So he won Best International Film making a film about the Holocaust. He's Jewish and because he references it here in the audio, and I remember the Spielberg quotes or whatever. That was the level of

giver crap that I had. However, listen to this, dues, are you ready right now? We stand here as men who refute their Jewishness and the Holocaust being hijacked by an occupation which has led to conflict for so many innocent people, whether the victims of October the whether the victims of October the seventh in Israel? Wait, wait, hold on, I'm sorry what ross? Do you have a calendar in front of you? Do you have a

calendar? Could you? All right? What day did they murder all those people at the music festival and then go house to house raping and murdering and immolating babies. Do we have that on the calendar? Because he just said the seventh of January? Oh did he say the seventh of January? Yeah? Did I know that'd be October? Or you said the seventh of October. Excuse me, well, no, it would be the sixth, right or the seven? All right? All right, so hold on, hold

on here October, no, he said October. That's going to be very clear, because when you hear this cut, you're gonna want to make sure you have everything tracks. It'side the wrong director of what whatever? The action flicks are? All right, So I'm sorry, go ahead, sir, I'm gonna restart it. I screwed that up. That's on me. Right now. We stand here as men who refute their Jewishness and the Holocaust being hijacked by an occupation which has led to conflict for so many innocent people.

Okay, all right, whether the victims of October the do is that cover? Whether the victims of October the seventh in Israel or the ongoing attack on Gaza, all the victims of this two humanization? How do we resist? All right? The rees that Alexandra Bistron Colazi Hchek, the girl who glows in the film as she did in life, chose to I dedicate this to her memory and her resistance. Thank you, all right? So so if you're here there he is. He references the you know obviously what's going on

over in Israel, but starts with refuting the Jewishness. So with armed with that information, reporters were sitting there and they were analyzing not just this, but other statements that he's made. When he says whether the victims of October the seventh and Israel the ongoing attacks and Jewishness, we stand here as men who refute their Jewishness and the Holocaust were being hijacked by an occupation which led

to the conflict. All right, So he didn't deny the Holocaust, as you know some people were saying, but he puts on he puts on level both the attacks that you saw at the music festival and then the hostage taking and all of that with the retaliation that Israel did going in there sealing off Gaza. Well in a way Hamas sealed it off. They wouldn't let people out, but sealing it off on their own and then going in there and you know, house to house and tunnel to tunnel. But why would you

refute your jewishness in this? I'm not Jewish, so I yeah speak for that perspective, But ultimately it was a very hot applause line there on the Award show Man refuting refuting the Jewishness based on that and and trying to draw comparisons there, I would argue, let me just throw it out there, and if you think I'm wrong, call the show eight eight eight nine three

four seven eight seven four. I get it. It's it's Monday. We just had the the dumb time change right where they're like, ah, I'm a steal an hour from you, so you rub and sleep out your eyes. But again, it is it's this idea that the motivations are mutually the same. Right, So, because he's invoking the Holocaust there and he's and I think that's important because the mindset of even Benjamin not in Yahoo's Israel is not I don't feel it's the same mindset that motivated Hitler, right, you

know what I'm saying. Whereas I think the mindset of Iran and Hamas and the the Hutis and Hesballah and all of these connects, I feel like their ideology does mere Hitler. Do you know what I'm saying? Right where they want where they're calling for the eradication of a population in Israel, even though you could claim that they have no respect for the Palestinians, and they put

some they they like. Their big offence in the minds of many folks is that they built houses where they shouldn't and like, because that's what that's the complaint that I hear, and that when they do retaliate against Tamas, they're described as indiscriminate. But the problem is many of the stories where that's reported turn out to be more of a middle ground murky water rather than indiscriminate murder of population centers intentionally who are non combatants. Right, So to sit there

and draw that comparison is insane to me. But you know, he's allowed to go up and say stupid stuff, and it's an awards show, so we kind of expect it. But that that little snippet caught my eye on the Twitter this morning, but that that's pretty much the only thing that I watched. I watched like two other segments. So, all right, what did you pull? You pulled the Millennia audio this morning? What am I looking at here? All right? Cool? Cool? Or Bill Vay?

Did I say Mulaane? Oh wait is it mulvaney or mullaney? I just realized they both have the same name. Kind of to the extent that I would screw it up. So all right, what is this? Must be a slow news day, he spent three segments. It is, yes, well it's the Oscars, so it is boring. But it's also Monday, so thank you for that. It's gonna get real exciting around here because we got a mystery. Well I don't know that we really have a mystery.

I just had a really weird Friday where I was sitting here trying to track some stuff down. Ross. I'm going to have an errand for you in about forty five minutes too, so prepare yourself for that. So let me do this. Let me do this, because I'm pulling up these emails.

What do you all sent something to the station? Which and I want to be abundantly clear here, you don't have have to do I feel I feel bad, Like I know that Ross has literally a collection of toys and randomness in his studio, but like, at the end of the day, I just want you to enjoy the show, even we're talking about Oscar stuff. Suck it up. That being said, I got an email from one of the listeners. I didn't ask i'd use his name, so we'll just call

him r from here on out. But and it was it was based on a bit that we do on the show, and I mentioned it on the air. I said, somebody wrote the show and any anytime we have a story where some psychopath is like has a sword, or in what was it in Goldsborough, like one dude was trying to fight his neighbor and he pulled his sword and the neighbor ran into his house and got his own sword.

Those are amazing stories to me, and I reflect on the fact that everyone has his sword, but me Ross has like nine swords or variations thereof. To be fair, though he was chosen by the Lady of the lake, so that's different. But so I mentioned that and then dude send me an email and he's like, hey, bro. We didn't say bro, but he's just like, I have all the swords, I'm sending you one. And in my mind, I'm like, you, I appreciate that. You

really don't have to do that. But he did. And then on Friday I started to get crazy ass emails from the building management and it took me like the whole day to figure out what exactly was happening. And it's going to culminate in Ross having to go run to one of the other floors here in about forty five minutes. So I'll tell you what happened. And the email I got from High Woods, which runs owns the building in which the

studio's in. So we'll do that coming up next if that will interest you here on the KCO Day Radio program, CaCO Day Radio program, or whatever

you want to call it. All right, So, by the way, coming up on the show, obviously the weekend shows, had they had the weekend or the weekend shows, the weekend news shows, I had an opportunity to digest and dissect the state of the Union, but also to talk about some polling for you know, whatever value you put in that, and we will we'll just discuss CNN's own polling, so which is worthless usually CNN, if you look at accuracy of polling, they're about bottom of the barrel.

It's almost as if their methodology might be flawed and perhaps influenced by ideology. It's just a possibility, just throwing it out there. But we will talk about that. And Joe Biden was even talking about some of the stuff he said, and by talking about I mean apologizing we'll get into into that. Madonna had an interesting weekend and the Deep State Intel guys are at it again.

That's all coming up on the show. But one other thing I wanted to share with you from well, a couple of things share with you from the oscars. So I mentioned Jimmy Kimmel watching The Man Show, all of that, and just you know, the transition with that dude from no,

he's funny, right, he's funny. He's got is a rather interesting and he's not an excitable dude, so he's got you know, a very dry delivery on it, but whatever, and then I remember the whole thing with his wife and Sarah Silverman, and normally I don't really give a crap about that aspect of Hollywood, but it just seems so scummy. And then he transitioned to you know, nighttime host, and all of a sudden, he's the wokest or the woke, which I don't buy for a minute. That

being said, he does have to demonstrate it. So let's he was the host. I'm not going to subject you to the whole monologue, which is being praised right now, but here's a little bit of it. Let's see what you think I was totally have like an extra minute, and I'm really proud of something I was wondering if I could share it with you. I just got a review. And has there ever been a worse host than Jimmy Kimmel at the Oscars? His opening was that of a less than average person

trying too hard to be something which he is not. And never can be get rid of Kimmel and perhaps replace him with another washed up but cheap ABC talent, George slop Anopolis. He would make everybody on stage look bigger, stronger, and more glamorous. Blah blah blah, make America great again. That's funny. Did you write that your ear? Okay, now that's a funny scene if you can guess which former president just closely that, I'm true said anyone? No? Good? Well, thank you, President Trump,

thank you for watching. I'm surprised you're still isn't it past your jail time? So anyway, obviously he had to get into his magas stuff, although I almost don't mind it because he's reading Trump's tweet, which I thought was kind of funny. And George Stefanopolis is he is a keebler. Elf. I've literally been like ten feet from the dude at the a media thing we did in DC years ago for the Broadcasters Association, and he is adorable size.

But for actual humor you need look no further than comedian John mulvaney, who he was just in there to announce, right, He was just announcing nominees. So it's not like he won. It's not like it was a set thing. His job is to go up and be like, hi, I'm you know, whatever, and then here's the nominees for whatever, and instead he launches into like a one minute diatribe here we go, or what about that moment in Field of Dreams when we hear if you build it,

he will come. And then Costar does it. He builds a baseball field. Well I guess he doesn't build it. He mows down corn and then there is a field, and then he's like, I'm gonna watch ghostplay baseball, and the bank is like, you want to pay your mortgage and he's like, Noah, I'm gonna watch Ghost play baseball. And Danny finds James Earl Jones, who wrote The Boat Rocker, which I thought was a real book deep into my twenties, and he's like people will come ray. He's

the only one with a financial plan. But what's weird is Timothy Bussfield pushes little Gabby Hoffman off the bleachers and she falls down and she's unconscious. Den Burt Lancaster's Moonlight Graham and he comes up and he pats around the back a couple times and he's like hot dogs stuck in the throat, and then he can't go back in the game because I guess there's a rule in ghost baseball that if you leave the field at any point to become an elderly ghost and

do the Heimlich maneuver, you can't return to the field. Our number two is we get things rolling. Sorry, I'm laughing over this story that you know that you know I got a good one in the stack if I'm chuckling before I even tell you. But we'll get to it. And I shouldn't chuckle because it's horrendous, but it's like I'm laughing over the media's a bit to even take what is a pretty horrible story, which about Haiti, where it's just it's not going well, not that it's been going well, but

it's going extra not well. And a couple of you have sent me this to I did see this. Don't worry, We're going to get to it. But the media's ability to try to like, all right, how can this be more viral, more clickable? And even in the dumpster fire that is everything going on in Haiti, it's that. By the way, Russ,

did I ever tell you as I? As I am sitting here on my journey to learn Spanish, I have my favorite Spanish word I've ever learned that I wish I wish I was around more people speak Spanish on the regular. Although it is a bit of a slang word, but it's my favorite word in Spanish. And it's de speech ay as I was. And that's not in the Rosetta Stone teaching, but a buddy of mine who speaks fluent Spanish explained it to me, and it just means dumpster fire. So they

have a singular slang where that just means dumpster fire. That's that's an incredible language. It's like you got a single word for it actually means a blankety blank show. H you know, the S word show. But still I'm like, I'm done. I don't need to let I can say dog and beer and a bathroom so should I should I should I have dumped that? No, no, no, no, no, it doesn't mean the actual S word, okay, which is a different word which I could tell you

a bit off the earth. So no, but that that was the comparison that they use because dumpster fire is not really anyway, but no, it is not considered a swear word. So but I'm like, that's all I need to know. I don't need to learn this other stuff what i've or man, but because I needed, I need to brush up because next week

I'm going to Argentina, so very excited. I think, I get I think, uh, I could just show up at the Presidential Palace, right, I think that's the way that works, and I hang out with the dud with the crazy hair. I'm looking forward to that. So anyway, actually I'm looking forward to the steakhouses. I've literally started because they have really have a really good steak down there. So but anyway, so yeah, I thought i'd brush up on that, but I was just inspired by that.

So anyway, uh yeah, that's pretty much what Haiti is right now. But the media has got to do its own thing, and we'll share that with you here in just a moment, I just realized something. I'm getting my, I get my I got the glazier grazers all wrong. I just realized on the button, bar Ross, you labeled this John Laney, and I think I said Mulvaney. Uh did I in the last segment, I can't remember his said Mulleni or mulvaney. Uh you know the uh,

the dude who worked in the trumpet. Well that's I mean, I'm not gonna lie. So when I'm recording the audio win for a second, I wondered if it was the same person. I'm like, this Mulvaney Mulleny isn't the same thing. So yeah, we both Uh but okay, I'm pretty sure in the button by Rights labeled Mullenie. You know it's labeled correctly. It's just in my own mind, I'm like, now I don't know anyone's name for two different people. Yeah, yeah, yeah, I think so.

Yeah, because obviously if he had worked for the Trump administration, he's sure as I wouldn't be a the oscars. Let's just be honest. They find a way to get that guy out of there. So uh yeah, yeah, yeah, we'll get to uh uh, we'll get to all that,

well, actually, what is it? All? Right? Let me do this because I played the audio and then we we kind of ran up against it, so I and I don't I wonder if he cleared it or how it works, because you know with the Oscars, right if you if you're even accepting an award and you go on a second too long, they

literally will start blasting music at you. So I have to assume when the hose or the the presenters I guess they'd be called, are going up there with the envelope to do it, I have to think that they have a window of time because some just come up and read it and some you know, a little banter back and forth because it's usually two of them. But this dude just goes up there and he's just like, let me give you a one minute summation of Field of dreams from this comedian's perspective. And I

think Mulany's funny. So and I don't know these particular political particularly political either, so I think that's why he sits in the funny zone for me, which is why I gravitate towards comedians that can if you're gonna rip on it, just rip on everybody. But anyway, so he does this one minute summation of Field of Dreams. I don't know that I can find an error in it as I'm sitting here listening to it now for the well, let's listen to it for you've heard it once, I've heard this will be my

time. I don't know that I can find an air in his summation. Or what about that moment in Field of Dreams when we hear if you build it, he will come. And then Costa does it. He builds a baseball field. Well, I guess he doesn't build it. He mows down corn and then there is a field. Okay, Well, to be fair that I don't know that that's fair. I assume in the movie, even

though it's you know, it's one of those kind of transitionary montages. I'm assuming after he mode said corn, he did have to put all that other stuff in but didn't just appear. But whatever, okay, And then he's like, I'm gonna watch Ghost play baseball, and the bank is like, you want to pay your mortgage and he's like, nah, I'm gonna watch Ghost play baseball. And Danny finds James Earl Jones, who wrote The Boat Rocker, which I thought was a real book deep into my twenties, and

he's like, people will come ray. He's the only one with a financial plan. But what's weird is Timothy Bussfield pushes little Gabby Hoffman off the bleachers and she falls down and she's unconscious. Ben Burt Lancaster's Moonlight Graham he comes up and he pats around the back a couple of times, and he's like

hot dogs stuck in the throat. And then he can't go back in the game because I guess there's a rule in ghost baseball that if you leave the field at any point to become an elderly ghost and do the Heimlich maneuver, you can't return to the field. I love Field of Dreams. That should win Best Picture, all right, So so anyway, other than the field assembly thing there, no, I think he nails it, but he does

bring up a good point. Ross. Let's say you go home today and you glance into the backyard by the hinge underneath the tower that blots out your son. Dude, if there's a bunch of ghosts playing sports, you're watching that, right, Oh yeah, yeah right? Your wife, Your wife could text you from work and she's like, what are you doing? Why aren't you answered? You're like, you have no idea. What's happening out here? Ghosts are playing football or baseball? Yeah you're no, You're gonna

watch that thing and probably neglect your other duties. So yeah, you can't come in. Oscar Robertson and Babe Ruth are playing dodgeball under the hinge. Sorry, I don't know. Would Babe Ruth be good at dodgeball? Though? Probably not? No, I feel like that wouldn't be as stress. That's the best announcement for an award there, because the entire award show is basically BS anyway, So I'd rather have him give a summation of one of his favorite movies for no reason at all. Then you go off on a

political dietribe. Yeah, look, if it was that, I'd watch the Oscars' to me. If Barbara streisand came up and did a funny summation of yental, right, we'd probably play the audio, would we? Right? If it was just if it was comedic, rather than listening to her commit an effect that's named after her that she clearly doesn't understand, Like she can't shut up. It's called the Streisand effect and you can't shut your face hole.

So anyway, yeah, no, that'd be great. In fact, maybe they should just require them to do that because like, obviously the comedians are going to kill it. But you throw that to your standard Hollywood idiot. Uh. Something tells me unless they have a team of writers doing it, it's just not happening. So anyway, that's your oscars in a nutshell. If I missed anything, keep it to yourself, because I all right, you can call if you want. So anyway, let me let me

get into this. So Friday was a little crazy. Rosson had like twenty things to do after the show that in of itself, and that's not that wasn't the crazy part. So I had mentioned that one of the listeners, Ralph Go with his first name, I had sent an email on a couple of weeks ago and he's like, hey man, it was it was a little drug dealer is She's just like, hey, here, you don't have a sword. So I'm like, yeah, no, I've mentioned, I've mentioned. I mentioned that on the show and he's like, hey man,

we gotta we gotta get you one. And I did talk about this on the air. I don't know last week or whatever. Just hey, really appreciate that, but you don't have to do it. I honestly feel bad, Like I am amazed at the stuff people will send to the studio, but I'm trying to We got these really cool mugs that are like metallic with our names engraved on it that got sent. What was the uh somebody sent a big bag of kitties? Is that still Yeah, that's still in your

studio. I didn't have the kittie litter. Yeah, no, Scooter sent us that. We didn't need to get into the origin story. Just it's a thing. What else most of it's in your studio of what people So people will send stuff. And again, I one time I said on the radio, like ten years ago, I'm like, I can't believe this rent We started so exactly ten years ago according to the promos, and I just joked, I'm like, it was like a month in and I'm like,

I can't believe I've been here for a month that nobody sent moonshine. And then somebody sent moonshine, probably from State Road, which I think is where you guys are all bruing it. Which is the name of a town if you're new to North Carolina, pasted Elkin. And then my dumb ass took that down to topsail and I literally had it on the beach with me sitting in a chair, and I drank some and I fell asleep, and then

I was a crab. So like, it can go either way. But then, even though I said that, the listener sent the sword, and it is that story I'm gonna tell you about because the things got a little weird, but they're about to be remedied here in about twelve minutes, and I'll explain the details of that coming up next here on the CaCO Day radio program. Rest of the Sword saga here in a moment moment And I'm leading this to seven thirty for a reason. But I just got an email here

apparently I have neglected some of our marine listeners. All right, what is this? It's not your birthday? That's that was just oh okay? Is that a thing? All right? Hold on? Today is three or like, yes, it is March eleventh, That is correct, the second greatest day in the Marine Corps, second only to the birthday. Why is oh? Hold on? He's explaining it here zero, three one one, So three eleven is the greatest career field. Hey, why are you dragging you

into this? What is that infantry? A basic rifleman? Okay, infantry? Yeah, all right, cool, all right. I'm glad you guys are happy. But if I could quibble for a moment, the greatest MOS in the Marines is forty two to twelve. So you get that reference, basic journal basic military journalism. That was a private joker's assignment. And why do I know that number off the top of my head? Because if you don't know this, go watch some Stanley Kubrick films. He is a he

in The Shining and quite a few other movies. He is all about the numbers forty two and twelve or numbers that add to them. So if you watch it, if you watch any of his movies, there is a recurring theme of those numbers. That's the most so because that is not it's not the proper MOS for journalism within the Marines. There is a job there in a number, but that's not it. But he loves that. And if you watch The Shining, even the room which is what two thirty seven,

it's just the evil room in there. If you add the numbers, it comes out to twelve. And for whatever reason, he was obsessed with that. So but you know, it's self serving for me to say that. All right, back to this, So this dude says, hey, let me send you a sword, and I again, people send. Then somebody sent it rassa mister bucket one time because we played the jingle, and I just I appreciate everything, but I just feel I feel bad about it.

But hey, if it makes your day, and we talked about on the radio, then so be it. So so the guy sends me an email and he's like, hey, buddy, I got all the swords. I'm not going to tell you how many, says he has, but I believe him. And as I mentioned on the radio, I'm like, appreciate it. But anyway, so I guess he sent it because he said send to me, and he starts sending me emails and then on Friday like he's kind

of worried because he had delivered. And I even like, I called our manager because I you know, it's in the afternoon and morning people ain't there, and I'm like, hey, there may or may not be a dude in the lobby with a sword. Because I didn't understand if he was dropping it off or delivery service was. And it turned out it was a delivery service, but somehow it went to the building management company, who owns the

building and runs the building in which the studio is. And I got this email from one of the guys I think he's a listener who works for the management company, and it just says, hey, did you guys order a Katana sword on Amazon? And I'm like, no, no, he didn't, But why do you just assume it's us? And I think what happened is he didn't put the floor on the address, which we might have explained. But also as soon as I'm like, yeah, that's our sword,

he was like, Okay, no problem, come pick it up. We're here after seven thirty am on Monday. And I'm like, wait, so because we're on the radio Ross and I can bring weapons of the building. This dude, that's some privilege right there. So yeah, that thing is like the Donald Trump of swords man. Rus's just I have not I haven't touched it yet. Is it is it actual like sword sword, Metal, Slice and Dice Killed Bill or is it a replica? No, it's a

it's a kill Bill. But Gatana it's a solid gold Gaton. It's the greatest guiton ever. It's so great. Oh did they what did they say to you up in the office. Well, I had a run down to ten and there's like a billion different offices all locked. Yeah, I'm sorry to give you the number, and like, well, which one is it? Because on our floor it's just like one one thing right all the way the states it's it's iHeart, there's a thousand. So I got the I

got the one knocked on the door. The guy comes in. He's like, non, do you want weirdo? And I'm like, hey, there's a sword here I'm looking for So what do you mean there's a sword And he goes to the back. He goes, there's a guy you're looking for a sword and he goes, oh yeah. The radio guy is downstairs with somebody said I'm a gold Katana and they're just like whatever. He just came out handed me the sword and I'm like, I'm like, I don't have

time to talk. I like a second until like you know, we come back from commercials. Yeah, but I promise I'm not going on to kill Bill Spree here. So all right, and then I vanquished like twenty of my enemies. Obviously, Russ is wearing a raiding hat right now for mortal combats once they learn how to summon lightning. You're all in trouble. You're all gonna pay. Why what do we doing to you? Then? Who's gonna who's gonna who's gonna donate to your stupid lambeau scam? You're fine?

Oh okay? Is it because I now have a gold katana and you don't wanna mess with me? I mean, I mean I have a gold katana. Well I'm not sure about you, but I personally am holding it. I see this, that's that's there're gonna wave into the camera. Anybuddy, Look there's my sword. You want to come and take it mine? Now? Well that sounds like a threat. Appreciate that. I appreciate the gift. Send me more things, dude, I got to see mine. Here

about way I can combine my drone. I have drone. Someone sent me here my drone. I can combine this with the katana. So it's just a flying sword of death. Shall not be infringed, dude. So on

frid I kind of slipped past it, but it's worth talking about. So I get an email from from the guy who sent the sword, and he's like, he's kind of freaking out a little understandably so because like he's trying to so he had it delivered and like he got confirmation it was delivered, but like we didn't have it. So I had to like track everything down figure it out. Was was it in packaging or what is there? Okay,

so I didn't I have to look at it here or not. But now I'm like, is this guy I thought to my said in the afternoon, I'm like, is this guy at the Because the way he worded it, I didn't know that he was having a company delivery, and I thought he was just dropping it off, which from time to time listeners will do that. They'll literally come to the with Then I even feel even worse because we appreciate you guys, and I don't want to take time out of your

busy day other than these three hours plus any podcast we do. So I thought that there might be a listener in the lobby with a sword, and so I called our boss, who I knew was there, and I'm like, FYI, there might be a dude in the lobby with a sword. But it's cool, right, And he had me on he had me on speaker phone, and I can hear Erica, who is on one of our other stations in the background, like squeal with delight, and I'm like,

oh, I realized that he's in this. He's I'm calling him. He's in the studio with her because they do a thing in the afternoon, and like she was more excited than I was. I'm like, so fun factor. Eric is into swords. But our boss was like you could tell it was taking him a moment to like process this, and I'm like, look, I just want to tell you in case, why don't you walk into

the lobby and you see a person with a sword. Because most of the interactions that we have are positive, you know, people calling, people, emailing, occasionally giving Ross a drone that he's going to weaponize as you know, a flying blade of death, he says. But occasionally, and these go into a folder I have called love letters. Occasionally people send pretty vile

stuff or threaten to do things. And there was one email one time from somebody who went out of their way to take pictures of my house right and say some stuff and then that goes right to the police. So occasion, on a very slight occasion, you get that. So I like my nightmare scenario that kicked in is they'd walk out there and there's some dude with a sword standing in our lobby, and I better provide context. So I texted, So I called him, told him that whatever, and uh, he

is still a little weirded out. So anyway, and then I found out it went to another office and I got an email from the office up on ten They're like, hey, did you guys order us? So here we sit and now I have a ross has it? Currently? I have a gold gitana and I do not mess with me? So there you go. Is it sharp? Dude? It's so sharp, like it'll cut through all my enemies. You know, it's amazing or what would be amazing? If

not, it wouldn't be amazing to have another one of those. But like you know that the big meeting we just had what two weeks ago, a week and a half ago, Just roll into the performance studio for the meeting and with that thing on your hip, just sit down. I told you before. That's how I start all HR meetings. Because I've been invited to

several HR meetings in my career. And the first thing you do, if this is advice to anyone listening, if you're ever going to enter R meeting, you gotta walk in to the HR meeting, and the first thing you do is you take whatever edged weapon you have on your side, a broad sword, claymore katana, gold katana, if you're an edged weapon, and you just pick it up. Yeah, because originally there it's a sword.

Before it was a blowy up. Oh yes, all right, no, that's to be fair, all right, yeah, iblo claiym more not. You take whatever edged weapon you have and you just drop it on your HR manager's desk and you want the thud to let it and then it rattles, and then you slowly sit down, never breaking eye contact. Whatever was going to happen in that meeting is it's history. You're fine. You're good to just make a million and a half a year now. So the one easy

trick threatening the HR with the sword. So what now, does that backfire if you bring in your nerd weapon the klingon batlet. Yes, yes, that one just kind of like makes some confused and curious because they're like, is this a giant can opener. I don't know what this is. It does kind of you. I could see where that would be confusing, all right, So anyway, that's although to be fair. If you're going to have a what's the little sword called? I can't remember that, the one

that you murder yourself with right now? Now, I got to go shopping for a solid gold one of those. So it's going to be a busy day. All right. Well, thank you to our listener, and thank you Ros for retrieving my sword. I appreciate that, would you agree? So that's on the record. Okay, now he's now he's shadow fighting something with the sword. Okay, all right, raced agic from the Weather Channel. I don't know if this happens at the Weather Channel, but somebody sent

us a gold, actual Katana sword. And when I say us, I mean me. But Ross went retrieved it and now he's he thinks it's his. You're right, an want to send you a gold Katana sword. No, but it's funny you mentioned swords because my dad, while I was home this weekend, actually gave me his father's Knights of Columbus silver. Everybody's got his sw I can't say that almost almost it's so close as well, you're part owner. It sounds like no, no, it is clear from the

email I am one owner, but oh I didn't know. It's the whole possession nation. So right right, well yeah, well, and he has possession, is what you're telling me. Yeah, he's currently he's one at sunset and he's and it's just the silhouette of him doing that, gotcha. So he's way too into it. Yeah, you know it's not sunset a sunrise, so right, right, right, yeah? Right? AnyWho? All right, so you had how was there snow? Did you not?

Bare ground? That's the bare ground? You guys didn't go out or well we did, so we it was a day and a half of it. Yeah, there was only three of us, my cousin and his buddy whose cabin we were staying at. And I'll just say this, after the first day. Everyone's snowmobil is what we're talking about right in upstate New York and the Arondecks. Yeah, let's just say after day one, and my cousin's

buddy didn't make it out for day two. So yeah, but yeah, I mean, does you know what any look, you tell me, I'm gonna be in a cabin for a week, even if the snowmobiles where I'm downright, Yeah, but you know, pretty if you take the economic impact, it's it's huge because a lot of the play is were if you weren't

local right in town. I worked in Minneapolis, so you know, you go Hudson, Wisconsin and those areas up there and it's like a Hayward and Hudson a Hayward right where all the snowmobil stuff is, like you don't know, they have snowmobil trails that run entire counties and there are literally bars along the way. It's the worst combination of things you've ever seen. But it's crazy. I was just thinking, what beast do you do? You have like an eight hundred? I mean, what what must you use to propel

yourself on snow? Well? I do borrow, so I'm lucky I don't have to rent. It's an eight fifty. Yeah, I just knew you run it eight hundred. Yeah. It was a Polaris last year, which is a machine where I would love to have my own. Yeah, I mean they're really now. It's ridiculous. They did a media because you know, Arctic and Polaris are both in Minnesota, right, yeah, ones in the River Falls I think still Plaris and Midgey and International Falls and uh right

yeah, and war Road and several different Canada. But they have. But they did a thing every year with the through the Tourism Office, and they had at the beginning of the season they had they had a fishing open or honeting opener, and then they called it Winter Sports Opener. And so it was a combination of ice fishing and snowmobiles. And so the companies would bring all of their sleds and and and members of the media. They'd be like fifty of us would go up there, and it was just a weekend of

drunk media people with snow. It was the worst combination you've ever seen. But also watching the Bubblehead news Anchorret who's never been on a snowmobile and just transferred from the Phoenix market, uh drive into a tree one mile an hour install. She didn't hurt herself, she was just the machine. I will never not laugh at that. It was well, luckily nobody get hurt. No, well, the snow the machine. She cracked the front of the machine, but whatever. Yeah, So I'm all right, Well I'm sorry,

you have no idea. I'll tell you what. Why did you make a whole bunch here which got you very excited? And then you can snow over? Go ahead? Yah? Yeah, Well, now I'm not gonna happen. If anything, maybe getting into the pool a little bit sooner than I was expecting. By the end of the week, we could be close to eighty in some spots. Now I'm not gonna say that chillier has done. There's some indications the middle latter part of the month is gonna get a

couple of cold shots to come in. So let's enjoy beautifulle lots of sunshine. Here's the numbers, so sunny through Thursday near sixty today near seventy, Tomorrow, Wednesday low to mid seventies, Thursday, upper seventies, maybe eighty, and then afternoon showers Friday and eighty degrees. Overnight loads will come up. We will be in the thirties tomorrow morning, and then the forties,

maybe the fifties by late weeks. So pretty track will week, pretty quiet, some great outdoor weather coming up. Chilly as day today, especially this morning, and the warmest day looks like it's gonna be Thursday day, and Friday when we could hit eighty degrees, especially in the triangle. You ever skipped a sledd You ever done that on a lake? Odd water or an opening in the water. Yeah, I've done an opening and I've done like a longer yeah, longer stretch too. That's pretty cool. It's yeah,

it doesn't sound like it should work. But if you're not where people screw up as they let off the throttle, Yeah, put it to the grip. No. Just for those of you who have never had the enjoyment when you're presented with this. Basically, we'd go on a lake called Meatow Lark Lake near I grew up, and there are springs. There's a spring in the lake, so even when the whole lake freezes over and it's solid, you could drive a mac truck on there. There's these two little pockets where

it's either ice off or it's just kind of flaky ice on there. And you get that sled up to about seventy and go across tho, well maybe not even that fast, but and then you literally skip like a rock across it. It's incredibly stupid, deeply satisfying. So well, you know we're not we weren't smart people back in the day. I won't do it again. Oh coward. Anyway, I've got to say that on air, right, No, who's listening that's in a position to go out on a frozen

lake right now? Not many? Yea many? So anyway, all right, cool, cool, Thank yous, sir, appreciate it. Yeah, that sounds like fun and then skipping like a ride. And then after you do it and it works, you're still like it does that sounds like a bad idea because it is, so don't do that, Like Ray said, wink wink, all right, seven fifty hang on CaCO Day radio program. It would be too long to list all of the All of the Biden gaps

over the years are just during his three years as president. But one of the more famous ones, if you go back like ten years or whatever, is is the famous where he calls out a dude, right he's doing the thing where he's just like, hey, you know, like politician will do. I can't remember where he was speaking, and he referenced local lawmakers or people within the political party or whatever, and he I was looking for the

individual kind of have it as part of the montage. I won't play it, but you're probably familiar with it. He gives a guy's name, he's like, please stand up, and it's a little awkward because dude's in a wheelchair. And so, now, to be fair, I don't know if Biden knew that, because he's verbalizing it in the way that they normally do right where he's just running around. He's just verbally going around the room and recognizing people for applause lines. That being said, I'm aware of that,

and literally I am. I consciously I would. I feel like I would have run it through my brain if I was ever in that position, you know, burn once, so to speak. Madonna's not apparently familiar with that, and so a little awkwardness. Let's listen in to what was going on at her concert over the weekend, shall we. Oh, they do there? Why are you doing? City? So everyone is standing up. I can't remember why. I don't even care why. Maybe they're just like,

oh my god, what is that on stage? But everyone's standing up, but this dude's sitting down. So she's she's trying to shame this guy for not I guess, being as active as the rest of her concert goers. And well, you already know where this is going there? Why are you doing? City has heard it out? Sorry about Donna? How glad you're here anyway? Yeah? Yeah, yeah, yeah because they cut over. They cut over. I'm assuming with the camera too, because the crowd all

at once kind of recking. Oh dude's in a wheelchair, so well, you know, a little bit of awkwardness over the weekend, but also she is terrifying. All right, A couple of things get into the Oscars were last night. We played you a little bit of audio there. Whatever, I'm not gonna dwell on. I guess al Pacino, I guess that was awkward. He did the he did the announcement for Best Picture. How old is Pacino now? It just it looked like he'd never been on stage to

do an Oscar announcement. But I don't know, maybe he just doesn't care, which I feel like Pacino's earned that, so whatever, I and uh and I would have thought de Niro earned that too, But I'm just I'm just done with that dude, all of those Bill mar clips and his just the incessant rambling. He would never play Donald Trump. I'm not gonna play his audio. Could screw him. But like I and I feel like he thinks he is he still thinks he's James was it Conway, Jimmy Conway.

Like I think in his head he's transitioned because like he'll he like he acts like he's really a gangster. That's what I find so obnoxious. I don't like actors that do that anyway, Like they get into one role and then all of a sudden they think they're the thing, and you're not the thing. Robert de Niro is is not his character from Goodfellas, which is Jimmy Conway, right, But like he then he like flows that attitude and it's

just obnoxious. But you don't really see it with Paccinos. So I'm good. Whatever. If he wants to go up on stage, it looks like he doesn't give a crap. All right whatever, So there you go. But like two people would send me that email. So there you go. And if you're PESHI and you did want to settle in and think you were a character, I mean, to be fair, I think Scarface takes Jimmy Conway. I think Pacino's scarface and de Niro's character and Goodfellas, I think

head to head. I got Pacino in then did you see the controversy and the confusion of when Paccino was a direct like broad on stage. Yes, that's what I'm talking about. Yeah, and they played the music. It's just the whole thing was and then he's he's he's sitting there like, ah, I gotta go to the envelope. And the whole thing was weird. But like also, I I think al Putino's reached that level of time in Hollywood, like you know that thing you dream about when you're old and you

can flip off kids and steal stuff fross you know you're retirement. Yes, yeah, I think Pacino has achieved that from a Hollywood standpoint. He come on stage and like moon people, But did you just be like whatever he earned it? Are you familiar with the zoomer confusion as to wim okay? So he comes on stage and they played the Godfather music. Well, the zoomers were confused because apparently there's a professional athlete. I don't know if he's

a wrestler. I don't know if he's a soccer player, but there's a and that's his walk on music. Yes, and he's Michael CORLEYO. I mean yes, no, no, no, it's a professional athletes, oh music. And these people were like, how come out? Pacino's coming out to this dude's music. All right, I'm done And people are like, no, that's from the Godfather, you idiot, Like he took it. Yeah, take their tots it. We confiscate your phones. The hell.

I'll tweet out the confusion on the on the X account at Casey on the radio saw this morning and a complete zumer confusion as to wipe Pacina was coming under this other dude's music. What is the here? I don't want to get old man yelling on his lawn on this stuff, but I don't understand the disconnect. Like I'm pretty well and I was, you know, as a teenager, and and to this day, I'm pretty well versed in the

media of my parents generation. Do you know what I'm saying? Like my dad before he you know, decided, you know, want to hang around, but he had an extensive extensive music because he worked partially in the music

industry, he had an extensive library of music. And I don't I'm not bragging in in the sense that like other people don't do it, but like dear, I remember the remember the infomercial for the like the Time Life music CDs, right like Songs of the Seventies or Rock of This right like I might have been the only kid at twelve who knew every song on there because I was fascinated by it. But even just a small understanding of classic movies

and TV shows and music. I'm not generalizing, because it's not every Zoomer, but it is baffling to me why simple stuff including arguably on any list you've ever seen one of the top movies ever made, and they hadn't watched it. I watched every single black and white movie thing with great enjoyment. I shouldn't. It wasn't all just black and white, but you know, movies that were fair favorites of adult relatives also, and I just found it

all fascinating. But I had a working interest of it. Ross. I know you're the same, and you know in the sense that you you probably you understood the media that your father and mother watched, and you probably had a basic understanding. But also the Godfather, what year did that come out? We're talking about a movie and I'm acting like it was part of my childhood, but it it literally predated me watching movies, So how does any of that happen? And I and this is where I'm going to get like

a little serious. I wonder if you know how we everything that's more than ten minutes old is racist and evil and we have to put a disclaimer on it. Right. You can't even watch Blazing Saddles on HBO Max without having to watch some professor explain to you why you're horrible person for doing this. And it's like, I wonder if like subconsciously that has an effect? Is

that weird? Is that? Or is it has to It has to have some impact because the absolute and I understand I'm just taking samples off the Twitter, but the absolute lack of understanding of history, be it you know, history, history, music history, movie history, not half the people under twenty five not knowing what the Holocaust was? Like, how does any of this happen? You know, It's easy to say, well, the you know, history teachers are not teaching that because they're spending time just all right,

But how do you explain the pop culture stuff here? God, now I have to know, Yeah, I have to know who's using that on his walk on music because that's rather interesting. That's kind of cool walk on music actually, now that I think about it. But all right, anyway, sorry, I just got distracted because it's just also weird to me.

You don't even have to like Citizen King. You don't even have to have watched Citizen King, but you know what it is, and arguably that movie predates most of our audience from the stats that you know, the audience stats that we have. Also, I know that, like it's the hip thing to say it's the greatest movie ever made. But meh, is that blasphemis? I don't know. But at least i've you know, sampled it enough to come to the conclusion that I was underwhelmed. I don't know, Ugh

what a mess? All right, Sorry, I got distracted over on that. Let me let me do this. We're gonna have to read. Take a break, all right. So, uh do you remember the killer whale conundrum down in Miami where they're like, ah, we're closing, we got to get this killer whale out of here, and like it was nothing but bad ideas on how they were going to do it, and then all of

it. What was the what was the way that they settled on they were going to convert like a C one thirty but put a tank on it, so it was literally going to be the Star Trek kind of and then like fly it to the northwest and you know, drop it out. But also it's the whole part where water's heavy and killer whales are heavy and they move, so like from an aviation standpoint, remember we balance planes. Even if you go out a commercial airliner, you may not realize this is happening in

it because it doesn't have it very often. But if you're on if you're on like a commercial aircraft, and the flight when the flight crew walks through, they're not just checking to see for seatbelts there. They may also want to balance the load, so occasionally they'll ask people to move, or if

they're seeding people that they're moving. They'll do it within the system, so you to kind of don't see behind the scenes, this is a killer whale and they want to put this thing in a plane and fly it over the US. You could just be sitting in your yard right and you're like, oh, beautiful day out playing with the kids, maybe grilling something, and then you look up and sham ooze on its way, right, So we

did that. Well, there's an update to what's going on with that the Seaquarium as it's called down there, and holy god, this thing sounds like just a dumpster fire man. And also we got to talk about John Brennan's comments over the weekend, and yes, what's going on in Haiti. It's so much worse than you think. I'll tell you about it next. Hang

on, you're gonna need a lighter story when I'm done with this. So for those who don't know, I mean, it's usually on fire, but it is remarkably bad in Haiti right now, the amount of turmoil, the assassination of a former leader about a year ago, and the Clinton Foundation doing what they do. I mentioned this on the show Friday, but the you know, the the big issue, one of the big issues in Haiti is the and it's you know, it's a standard bearer in corrupt regimes everywhere,

and that is whoever's in charge. In addition to looting, the local coffers generally turns the publics, either public resources or sources of money into their own piggy bank. And largely the way that you have to do that if you're in a country that is very destitute, is you have to you have to turn, you have to turn to foreign interest. So you know, China is really this is really like their bag right now where they go to these

hell holes. Yes I'll use the term hell hold, but if you ever been to poor to prince, there's no other word to describe it and do your research. So just I wouldn't go down there today. That being said, you know you need the big pockets of money, and so China uses it to gain influence for un proxy voting and a few other things. But you know, corporations are going to go in there, and even some US politicians, And it was crazy. I was sitting there reading about the gold

mine. Fifty percent of the revenue just leaves the island, and the Clintons are tied into it. In fact, Hillary's brother is on the board, the Clinton themselves, the foundation. They were able to get six hundred. I think it's actually more than that because the brother has ten thousand acres either directly adjacent to the gold mine, which you can imagine why they want that, right, there's gold here, maybe there's gold there, whatever, And

it's crazy. So it's just one of a hundred reasons that people are upset. But also you have though you have criminal gangs jockeying for power, kind of like what's going on in Ecuador. So what do they do. They seize the airport. They are they want the prime minister, not just to resign, they physically want them. I'm assuming to Russian revolution him and his family. Look that up if you want, and it's eight. They estimate that eighty percent of the capital of Haiti is controlled by gangs, and one

of those gangs is called sect Rouge. I don't know if you know what that is. It's not just a Haitian thing, but it's a bat asterdization. If there is such a thing of voodoo practices, which, among other things, have you eat other humans to exude their power. It's it's so much messed up stuff. So yeah, yeah, that's going on in eighty

I said Friday on my how could it get you worse? Apparently that's how Haiti is in a state of chaos as gang members attack police officers with machettes a let's see here, violence plaguing eighty percent of the capital controlled by the gangs. During the descriptions of the violence, one journalist wrote that cannibalism has been witnessed on the streets as violence reaches unprecedented levels, they chalk it up

to intimidation tactics. Tactics, Right, so if the gang comes in and they want to seize your stuff, and you know, they just ate your neighbor, maybe you're not fighting them. But also sect rouge is uh is look it up. It's it's it's horrible, but also it's something that is uh fascinating to uh to to read about. And and then you have gangs, which are they're not necessarily religious, but they they draw the most gruesome aspects of it. And then just pandemonium and chaos ensues, and uh,

that's what's going on. I was just reading some additional details. This happened around New Year's. This happened around New Year's but I think there was uh it sounds like there was also some mental health history, although the explanation in here I don't know explains this, but also details about the death of Kyle

Finger e Finger, I don't know how to pronounce him. And so he's he's flying, he's from Utah Park City, Utah, and and he was at Salt Lake City Airport, was gonna be getting on a plane to Denver. So a little short hot flight and he got there late. And you know how it is when they closed that door. You know, it's like, oh, I if we open that for you, all the planes will explode, right. And I understand its regulations and stuff, but it's there's

a set time. I literally got into this at the airport in Jacksonville, Florida one time because it's supposed to be fifteen minutes and they closed it twenty two minutes before. And the reason that I was to the airport with more than enough time, but the security screening thing, the computer on the security they had to stop letting people through security until they could figure it out,

and so like for thirty minutes, we couldn't get through. So I was I was an hour out and by the time I'm there, and like I even went, I went down there and I wasn't the only passenger and they have the door shut twenty two minutes before, and I'm like, it's supposed to be fifteen and also, are you not aware of what's going on in the air It was. It was a friggin nightmare. But whatever, It's

frustrating, is what I'm saying. However, I just ended up getting on a later flight, Effinger, according to authorities, bust and there's video of this now they released the video. He leans into the door, which breaks it like like he's a police officer on a no knock and runs down the runs down onto the tarmai. So it's not that door on the it's a door just down that is, you know, employee only that actually leads downstairs to where the crews are working in and out. But he puts his shoulder

in that bus. That thing goes running down there, runs out on the tarmac. In fact, here let me read the description. According to the footage released, Effinger runs to the locked, locked door at the gate he was trying to open that. He then interacts with somebody who looks like an employee, like what the hell are you doing? He then runs away, finds his other door, bust that, and then and then busted a window that was in another door to gain access through that door so he could reach

his arm through there. From there, he then let's see, he runs down a stairwell they have all this continuous video and then runs out onto the onto the tarmac where the plane is pushed back, but not lee or not pushed back, but the gate is pulled back. The plane hasn't pushed back yet, and you literally see him running and we knew, we knew that he died, and the theory was he had gotten sucked into the engine, which you knows how that employee, that Delta employee was killed last year.

No, according to the information that's released, he attempted to gain access to the airplane by crawling into the engine. How does that make sense? I don't. I don't understand the thinking there. So they are clearly saying the problem with the video out on the where he's interacted with the plane is its thermal imaging video, which is the only video that they had there. But you can clearly see he's attempting to crawl in the engine. Did he think

you can ride in the engine? Did he? Cause, like you, you know where the engine is, right, it's out on the damn wing. I'm pretty sure there's not a crawl space behind there. But yeah, that's what he did. The flight with one hundred people on board, as you can imagine, was was canceled. The family believes that he was suffering from a mental health crisis, although there's video of him interacting with security personnel

at the airport and other than rushed his seat appears to be fine. It was only after he missed the flight that he when he saw the door was closed, That's when he started losing it. Man. Let's see. According to authorities, Effinger was found partially inside a wing mounted engine of the plane after the manager of an airport's store reported to disturbance. It was Airbus, so yeah, you know, mid size standard kind of commercial, more of

a regional thing. But I'm just trying to picture the size of the engine. First responders eventually pulled him out of the engine intake caling that's where that literally is what directs the air into the fan, and attempted. Yeah, the whole thing is weird. Man. Sorry, I just saw an update on it, and I just everyone just assumed he he got too close to the engine and that horrible. No, he literally climbed in there himself. Okay, all right, there you go. Uh all right, let me

flip back to this. By the way, Ross, thank you for posting the picture of the sword my sword on social Let's see, it's like in a lot of interaction, I think you may have messed up the wording though. I mean, if you want a photo of it. All you have to do is come in here and take a photo of and post it on the internet. Yeah, you post it to your personally. Yeah, no, it's come in here and take a picture of it. He has it. He now has it literally and it I will say this, it does

look like it fits there right there. Yes, it's meant to be. It's not meant to be. Uh. He has it literally cross the top of the board in front of his monitors, and it says, amazing sword added to my studio that a listener milled and looks great above the board. I feel like there's an episode of the Off. Was there an episode where I with the sword trying to remember? I mean, the whole thing just sounds like, because the whole ordeal with that, it just sounds like it

could be possibly. You know Dwight get yeah, yeah, Dwight with a sword. By the way, you know the GM's gold curtains in his office, you know Mike's gold curtains. Yes, yes, yes, okay, sure yeah, making myself a kimono to go with my sword. I don't think he's in town. I think he's traveling or something. So you got like the weak won't you won't even notice. Well no, I mean not right away. And your wife she's she's so as good. So like I

would probably be a really nice kimono now that I think about it. So I come in, are you going? You know what you're going? Straight? Like it wasn't Sigall's big thing swords too. I think he had a giant sword collection. Okay, here's like a serious question because I'm so out of the loop when it comes to like how offices work. Besides actually like episodes of the Office that's my familiar. So, like, do offices still

use those giant paper cutter things? Remember you'd put the paper on it and you'd be like, shoop, there's one if you go into the sales department, you know where that first the first little printer is on the with the nuts right there, there's a paper cutter in those cabinets. So I mean, I mean, if anybody needs me to do that, I could just go down into sale because I always get that too, Like you never go

down to sales, Eh, why don't you like sale? I'll go down there and I'll be just they always every time we go down there, they want us to do something. I'll cut the paper for him if they want funny, yeah for it. I could do that. You do that, or go to what is the what's the Japanese restaurant up at Ryer Creek where they do the table side thing. Oh like kunky Yeah, but it's not knky, well whatever it is. But when they cook in front of you, Yeah, just go in there and just push the dude out of the

way and be like, step out, step away, rook. The thing is amazing. This thing is so sharp. I've always said, like, if I get a lightsaber, right, everybody says like, if I got a lightsaber, I would save the galaxy. I'm like, if I got a lightsaber, I'd be I want to save the galaxy, Like two seconds later, I would like my arms would be off right, my legs because I wouldn't be able to use it. So this thing is so sharp.

I'm like, I feel the same way about it, like if I were to like it's no, it's like when you pick up the first time you pick up nunchuck on nunchucks, right, what is now you think you're going to be Bruce Lee or like Michelangelo, but you're gonna knock your eye out. Yeah, yeah, yeah, you get yourself in the face, But I feel like a sword somewhat easier to control. So I don't know,

I don't know. I think I think if I think you should just wear it, uh for like a week just running random errands because like people are gonna list bring race stagic in this horrible idea from the weather Pianel thanks, because I feel like some people may say something, but I think that enough people would also in their mind go, you know what, I'll bet if that dude's got a razor sharp caton, I'm probably not gonna say anything to

him. So I feel like you'd get away with it, go to Olive Garden and use it to uh you know, uh you know the chopped breadsticks or something for the limited practice with that too, right, Yeah, yeah, yeah, great, great breadsticks by the way. But yeah, Ross is gonna so hurt himself, but whatever goes all right? Man? He still owns it, then, yeah, so he still owns it. Well,

he's using he's no, he's he's it's a brilliant legal strategy. He posted a photo of it in his studio implying that it's his, and then I'm assuming he'll try to use that as evidence at the hearing zone. Right now, it's clearly above my board. It's clearly about the board. I can't you know. Okay, if I get pressed on the stand, I'll be like, yes, that is his board, okay, yeah, all right, So we'll see how that goes. Yeah, all right, make it sum right now, go yeah, yeah, we're going to a little

taste of it. Most of us will be pretty close to sixty. I mean, if you're in the upper fifties, what's the difference, So, Chili this morning, the northwest breeze is kicking up and it will continue to do so, so maybe the coolest feeling day of the week, dry weather

and lots of sunshine expected. Tomorrow will be near seventy, upper sixties, low seventies the forecast, and we'll notice the overnight loads that come up too, as will be in the mid upper thirties tomorrow morning, and then in the forties Wednesday morning, and then low to mid seventies and again sunny on Wednesday, and again Thursday will be sunny, mid to upper seventies. You might hit eighty. There's a chance at eighty degrees again Friday a better chance,

but there's a chance of showers in the afternoon and the weekend. If I want to take a shot at it. Right now, we'll be back down to the low seventies, but still above average. So you know, as it's been really typical. If we get any cold shots, they've been short lived all winter. It looks like that trend will continue sometime out beyond

next weekend. I may try to get cooler again briefly, but you know, we're starting to really get into the time where we could say goodbye to any you know, real sustained cold here, not that we've had any this winter, but I think I'll really turn of the tide now towards springtime.

You know, here's the because here's the problem with with men and got you know, in weapons, right, we get if we get you know, some ninja style a weapon in our hand or like nunchucks or whatever, like instantly, even with no training, every dude thinks he's Bruce Lee, right, you know what I'm saying and correct, But butrect reality we are what was what was the character? It's Samurai fu TABI remember Belushi on SNL where her Mariah recurring Fabi. I could cut the hell out of some Deli beat

for real. Yeah, that one was funny, and then the hotel one because then it's he's like the bag boy at a It's anyway, those were good skits man, you know back when SNL was funny, what are you gonna do? Right? But that's what we actually look like versus what we think we look like. So somebody's getting cut, That's what I'm saying. But all right, man, thank you very much. I appreciate it.

Yeah. By the way, Ross, did you know that Belushi? This is how you know this is this is such a dude, Like they wanted him to use a fake sword and he's like, nah, please, I'm not and he he cut two people doing the skits. Yeah, it's probably the guest host. He cut Acroyd one time. That's probably the greatest moment of their life too. What absolute downhill from there? Yeah, getting cut by Belusha by samurai sword, that's like a top ten moment in your life,

top two, easily the top moment of your life. Yeah, no, that's the story you tell forever, that's for sure. All right, we'll be back. Hang on quick Business Report, Bloomberg, Take it away, Jeff Okay, Casey stock Market futures pointing lower this morning. The now futures are down one hundred and sixty. We can tell you that investors are on edge ahead of new inflation data. The Consumer Price Index will be released

tomorrow morning. There was a surprisingly big jump in the cost of living in January, and there are worries the CPI may have risen sharply again last month. The Fed, of course, has said it needs evidence of tamer inflation before it will start cutting interest rates, so the report will get a lot of scrutiny on Wall Street tomorrow. Casey, all right, thank you sir. We'll give you more time tomorrow. It's just a weird Monday, So there you go. Jeff Bellinger, Bloomberg News. Oh oh, we got

a couple cancelations they got to handle real quick. Get that out. Well, you know, we'll head over to the sports side of things. Joe Burrow and Nick Bosa unfortunately unfortunately did something over the weekend. Not going to recover, and the social justice folks are they gotta go. Bosa forty nine ers and Burrow Cincinnati got himself like three hundred million bucks and then forgot how to play for a little while. But he seems to have recovered. But

so what happened. So UFC was in Miami over the weekend, and you know that Trump likes those things, and obviously if it's just down the street from his place, kind of you know, he was going to be there, and he was, and he was there with his daughter actually, So all of a sudden, here comes Joe Burrow and Nick Bosa and they start talking to him, and then they sit down and they're kind of hanging out

with him, chatting for a little while. Although in the video I saw I kind of I feel like, yeah, they they did come over to say hello to the former president who's there who likes receiving line if you if you've seem at these events. But also they weren't not talking to, you know, Avanka, So there's that. So I don't know, I don't know. I mean, obviously she's married to Jered Kushner, but I wonder

if maybe that had something to do with it too. But either way, they were just they were just adults having a damn conversation.
