Tuesday-05-09-2023

All right, good morning everybody. It is It's so seven here on the k c O Day radio program, and it's Jesus Actually Season, way early this year. It's only May. I guess maybe it might be rollover from Easter, but normally, I mean it's at least like uh, I mean, it's usually post Thanksgiving before it's Jesus Actually season. Kyle, are you are you familiar with Jesus actually season? Do you know what that is? I'm sitting here racking my brain and I'm not coming up with anything. Oh,

Jesus actually season. Okay, So Jesus actually season is when some moonbat decides that Christians are rubes and morons and idiots, and so they get a picture of Jesus with Middle Eastern features, and then they put a post on Twitter like sorry, sorry, horrible people, this is what Jesus probably actually

Yes, yes, yes, I'm familiar. Yea yeah yeah, And then it turns into a whole thing where the ratio they get ratioed because people then post all the memes, which are essentially like you know, hey, hey guys, you know little stick man, Hey guys, this is a thing, and everyone's like, okay, all right, we're good, right, and generally the people post and so I call it Jesus actually season because this

is what Jesus actually look like. But these are the same folks that like, people who I don't know responded to Netflix and they're like, I don't know if Cleopatra looks very Macedonian Greek, just saying then like, oh, you're racist, because why our Cleopatra. You know, Cleopatra has been represented by a black actress. Uh, And it's like, why, which isn't nobody Nobody's like, ah, Jesus probably looked like a Scottish highlander. Man.

I don't know if you know this. Culturally, everybody's said now culturally, if you if you look through history around the world and the expansion of Christianity, Jesus is represented in artwork and handing on where that artworks produced, Jesus's features have changed, and that's not necessarily a bad thing because it's when you're looking at religious artwork. Sure, it's about the man Jesus, but it's also about the you know, the the Trinity, the who who he

was. From a religious perspective, right, he's not he's not being represented in imagery because he was good at carpentry because you know his dad was good. Right, it's there there, there's other reasoning there. So um yeah, but yeah, yesterday was just throwing through Twitter and I'm like, what we did? What do we do it? We didn't do this. I don't remember right before Easter, but like it's May, so hold on, moonbats, it'll be you know, it'll be post Thanksgiving before you know it,

and then you can post all of your Jesus actually stuff. Anyway, all right, six to eleven here on the Cacoday radio program, phone number eight eight eight nine three four seven eight seven four. So that's the thing that's going on. Also in the news, we got um oh, got a big public broadcast. This the story out of Oklahoma's crazy. Actually, I mean I understand what he's arguing. But of course they'll run around with

the death of big bird stuff. So we'll get to that. Um this story now, the story about these the two prisoners who escape from that jail, which is like, d do we need locks? Maybe? Maybe not?

Um that somehow gets crazier when you look at the story of the other dude, because you remember it wasn't just the man accused of killing the wake County Sheriff's deputy Ned Bird, who then may his way to Mexico with what authorities believe was the assistance of his sister um and then eventually he's recaptured.

Uh, it went a little different for his for his selly, the other dude who escaped, he too had an escape plan that involved apparently people on the outside, but he went, you know, this is this is why family is so important. So I don't want to I don't want to assist future career criminals. But uh, there's a lot of comparing and contrasting there that we will have to get into coming up, and uh, well much more, all right, So we'll do this, we'll hit our break.

Oh yeah, right, I threatened to bring this story back to Oh no, that's not what I needed to see. There's a story I got to at the very end of the show yesterday, and I just don't understand it, and I don't know that I believe it, but it impacts most everyone who's listening because basically, Raleigh's on the list, Greensboro's on the list, Charlotte's on the list, Faye, it fills on the list, and it's the top cities for particular activity that thankfully, I have never seen any of

my neighbors participating. Another is one one neighbor like if she wanted to what we all have that neighbor, Yeah, you know, I would want her. I would want her to be able to accomplish this activity and whatever made her feel most comfortable. It's not a direct neighbor, but close enough. So I'll tell you what that is, and uh, we'll just we'll take it away from there. Coming up here on the k c O Day radio

program, celebrating ten years of keeping you connected. This is ninety four five WPTI in the Triad and one oh six one FM talked in the Triangle. All right, good morning, everybody, is six nineteen here on the Cacoday radio program. Oh wait, hold on, we may have some more Jesus information. I mentioned when I started the show. I get up this right. I saw this yesterday actually in the evening. I got this morning, read some of the replies, and uh, normally this is reserved for around

the Christmas holiday. But basically somebody, somebody will come in. They'll post a picture of Jesus but with Middle Eastern features. You know of where where where where he lived uh, and and then they're like a stupid Christian see go go home, Waite supremacists, right, and you know, sometimes it's

a religious person. Most of the time it's not. And they're like, this is what Jesus actually looked like, and I just like mocking him because then they get a you know, a bunch of people coming in like yeah, I don't care, and um. But every time, man, it kicks off into a big thing, people screaming at each other. So,

um, Chris, what's up? Three mangam on in ten years? Congratulations, I've been with you about eight h First, Samuel twelve sixteen, If I'm a mistaken says that David was running and I'm a fair at Councilance, which used it. He was pretty much bad hitting freckled alvern air, which is a rare trait in the Middle East, but it's there. It's kind of green eyes here Jesus being a direct descendant of David. Noven know, but it's possible that Jesus read hid to have freckles. Bok Man appreciate sall

tayse and he'll have a great day. Oh okay, you see the Jesus with the Fu Manchu why not. This is a this is this is where we find um find out that culturally Jesus was right. And I'm serious, there's a Chinese Jesus. Look it up. I don't know if he's Chinese, but it looks Asian. Because at that by then, when you're doing religious imagery, it's about the messaging. If I can approach this from a marketing standpoint, and obviously that's what you're doing. You're you're you're marketing this,

this message of salvation. So people are going to going to market in a variety of different ways. But our last caller is it would essentially be one of the all the people that are all over there yelling at each other. Well he wasn't yelling, but I mean debating, debating the issue. So anyway, six twenty two KCOD time travel would solve all of this. Yeah, but it would except immediately they you know, government would screw it

up somehow. Do you know what I'm saying? True? Just think about think about this, if you if you can justify things like unnaming the school for MLK, right, if it was that, so what was that San Francisco They wanted to do that, and they actually ended up having to back off that because just a bridge too far. If you could just to find that in your head. Do you know that the ruler of Canada, which is I guess an authoritarian position, has just decided to unilaterally change Canada's coat

of arms. There's going to change it. Justin Trudeau and some of his some of his crew have decided they're just going to change the Canadian coat of arms. They want to remove They want to remove two pieces of imagery and on one of those pieces is Across and the other is the Florida Lee.

Now where would those two things be. Well, obviously there's the you know, there's the French heritage from Canada, but more specifically, those images exist on imagery within the coat of arms that includes the British royal crown, except it shown in a passive way, and there are still connections because King Charles would now have we'll have to sign off on this and whatever new coat of

arms they want to do. So they're going to tweak what is the crown that literally was placed on Charles's head on Saturday, because they can't have any of that imagery in there. So if you're dealing with cats like that, do you trust them not to sit there and go, yeah, well, you know what, we need to go back, and we need to find that first boat from the sixteen nineteen project and make sure it never lands in America. Right, they'll they'll make cultural adjustments, and then you get all

that butterfly effect thing. And there you go. You're telling me, you're telling me you don't think that some moonback could justify doing that, Kyle, of all the crap that you read, you know, somebody'd be thinking that if time travel was a thing, right, go back and correct all idle errors that they see, regardless of the circumstances. Absolutely, I'd be all over that. You want to talk, you want to know, you want

to talk about getting canceled. Let's say you commit some you know, super duper double secret probation, microaggression, hate crime, and um, you decide, hey, you know what, Um, I'm gonna have an opinion on this thing, and then all of a sudden, the woke folks once you canceled, Well, do they just once you you know, fired and uh and marginalized within society deep platform perhaps by the social media companies, or in their mind, would they go, well, the damage was done when that

individual didn't use the proper you know, animal pronouns or whatever this individual requested. So the harm has already been caused. So maybe we should go back and get them before or they can make the microaggression. It's like shades of John Connor here, dude, I'm telling you, yeah, but for things like you know, um, asking where somebody's from, right, not being the not being the leader of the human resistance to the take the takeover of

the robots. No, no, no, Now this person questions I questioned the need for a safe space. You got someone's pronouns wrong in twenty twenty seven. Yeah, we're coming back for you. It's a little bit of that and the Minority Report, although you can't call it that because then that'd be racist somehow too. Oh yeah, Now, the worst thing that could happen is like AOC and her crew are like they get access to the I don't have to worry about AOC inventing time travel. I think I think we're

probably good there. But no, my mind's running wild. Oh yeah, think about it now with the sports almanacc let's go back to the future on that. Well, let's take kind of book in her hands. Yeah, let's also go back and you know, maybe there's a sport that they don't feel is uh, you know, has enough representation, even though again, people in professional sports they pay millions and millions of dollars to make millions and

sometimes billions of dollars. So if you're purple and you can hit a fastball a third of the time, somebody's gonna pay you. But you know, we hear the constant refrain that baseball baseball is racist because it's overwhelmingly Latino and white, and there's under and black players are underrepresented within the league. Are

they underrepresented because of racism? Are they underrepresented because baseball team owners wouldn't pay a black guy hundreds of millions of dollars if he can get an ERA down below two? Or I mean, do you really think that or do you or do you think that they would? And there's perhaps maybe just more emphasis

within the black community of tackling other sports so to speak. I don't know, but yeah, never let him get a time machine, man, it ends horribly or on the fallout the unintended consequences, because again that's a usual thing, well that would just be ignored by the media. So let's be real honest here celebrating ten years and still going strong. Thank you. Casey is on not w PTI in the Triad and one h six one FM Talk in the Triangle. All right, so well, you know what this is

why the Jesus thing kicks off on the Twitter. I got people banging into me from all sides. It's not backed. My point is not a debate over facial features. My point is that when you're talking about imagery that is then criticized or used or whatever for the purpose of this, I think they were like, oh, we'll have AI write it. It's not It's imagery that was utilized throughout history and by cultures all across the world of different backgrounds

to tell the same story. So there's going to be, uh, there's going to be ethnic bias in the way that that is sometimes sometimes shown, right, because you'll never know one hundred percent, just like you know, we don't know one hundred percent would basically anybody look like for about you know, if you go back even a one hundred and fifty years, I mean, yeah you have you know, you can paintings things like that, but you don't know for sure for sure. So this is this is the point.

But that's fine, you know, debate amongst yourselves, all right. So with that in mind, let me share this story down at the end. It was at the very end of the show. I saw this and I just kind of just started shaking my head looking at it. Kept reading the list and kept seeing on the list cities in the North Carolina cities, the Triad and the Triangle and Fayetteville, Charlotte area, you name it. Strangely not Asheville. Didn't see Asheville on this list. So maybe it's the

cool mountain air the top cities in America. This is based on, you know, people's participation for naked gardening. And I have no idea. I had no idea this was a thing. I don't know that I still believe it's a thing, let alone that it's a thing that's really popular around here now cities Like if you told me, oh, there's people whose thing is gardening in the buff And look, if you have if you have a piece of property where there's no line of sight from anybody, you have privacy.

You're out in the middle of nowhere and you want to walk out into your yard with nothing on. I'm sure people may avail themselves of that. I yeah, do whatever. But but now you got tools and stuff. You got that little uh little little thing looks like a gator's mouth, you know, for hedge and stuff. And you got the little you got the little little mini hand rake thing with you know, sharp little barbs on it. You got all. You got a hole, you got chemicals, you got

a whole host of things. The weed whacker very us very dangerous tool. Are you kidding me? And you're out, you know, letting it fly. But who the hell's doing this? Apparently enough of you that you ended up on a list. Now the number one city Miami, That almost makes sense. It's a busy city. But ultimately, you know, stuff grows.

A lot of stuff grows down there. It grows fast. You know several people that I know that live in the Miami area, they due to the lushness of their backyard or constantly constantly doing something or something or pay somebody too. My buddy, my buddy who lives north of that. I fact, if you go in his backyard, I don't know his guarding habits, but it's got huge tall fencing and then the stuff growing up over it and there's no line of sight. It's perfectly private back there, and it's just

him and his wife and they have a pool. I have no doubt they use that pool as nature intended. I don't want to think about it, but I'm sure sure that you know that's an option. But that's a pool. This is spinning implements of doom. Austin's on there, Atlanta. But then you get in, you get through down the top ten and who's the number one city in North Carolina? Raleigh? Who's doing this? Just you have? Is this why I'm assuming because we gotta we got a decent size

audience. Uh here on the show, one of you Purves is into this. I don't even know if that's Purves. I guess as long as I get, you know, naked gardening when you're like, you know, in your front yard across from a school, then you'd get the title. But I don't. I don't, And even if you are, I don't know how how are they polling for this? Actually they show the methodology here utilizing

forums. Do you garden different if you don't have if you're you know, in your birthday suit, why do you need a forum that's separate why not just have a garden, go to a gardening forum, go there. I think the I think the the rose. I was just gonna say, the roses grow. But roses, man, they got thorns and stuff, and

you got bugs. Right, Let's say you're doing a little gardening and I don't know, maybe you're trimming the tree and you didn't notice up there and there's a hornet's nest or something and you hit that with the big old solly pole thing. All right, you just imagine that, didn't you. So why do you need to go to Why do you needs to be a garden for him? That's different, I guess maybe for that instance, going hey, avoid hornet's nest especially. So, Yeah, the city of Raleigh is

in the top ten. Scroll down the list, Fayetteville, Charlotte, Greensborough, Winston, Salem, Durham, all making the top fitty at least, and most of them in the top thirty. And I'm just so incredibly confused. How many of your neighbors would you want to see out there, you know, planting bulbs? So who's doing this? Eight eight, eight, nine, three four seven eight seventy four? Oh man, oh hold on,

yes, Dave, what's up. Hey, how you doing. I'm I'm I'm I'm horrified search because I'm envisioning each and every one of my neighbors. I think you're confusing gardening with lawn chair Kate. Nobody's are out there moving using a lawnmower naked. But why not? Why not because it's not the same thing. They're not using tools of destruction, as you call it. They're using lawn tools. Yeah, but they're not using power tools naked. I mean, that's just not what's going on. And I'm in a

neighbor who did this, he'd be out there. It's like I'll probably six thirty in the morning pulling the weeds out of his garden. Well I have Oh my goodness, did you move? Well there, um, this was many years ago, but yeah, we and ended up moving. But I don't know, by the way, I don't know me. Yeah, I'm sorry. Ahead, Oh no, no, no, no, go ahead.

Then I'll tell you what I was thinking. He wasn't a neighbor that was directly next to me, but he was like the talk of the cul de sact is is this was this in one of it was in the North Carolina community that's on the list. Um it was in Durham. Yeah, yeah, well there you go. You know, I was like, hold on, hold on, let me because this, this, this will actually this will weave into the point I was gonna make if I was into naked

gardening. I don't know if that would take place early in the morning while there's still a nip in the air. Do you know what I'm saying. Well, I mean in the middle of the summer, there's no in the air. I understand, I understand this. I'm just saying, you gotta get around the fringes. That's a problem. Maybe it's toss of a problem in Durham. I don't know. Um, but yeah, I'm done with you. I'm gonna I'm gonna go. I'm gonna go heat of the afternoon.

Yeah exactly. Maybe you can't get a tan. I'm just saying, at least I won't get embarrassed. Okay, So all right, all right, see they do exist. I stand correct. I just assume this entire thing was made up, because who the hell would do that? Dave's neighbor. He seemed one of those my friend's stories asking for a friend's story. Oh yeah, you would never use a weed whacker bar. What are you crazy? Oh? So now I see. Now I just have more questions. You ever do radio naked? Um? What I have? I now?

Let me now? Am I from a home studio perspective? However? Just been sitting around in my boxers recording something? Sure? Sure, yeah, okay, yeah yeah, but that's that'll be a you know, like a home studio cutting an ad whatever kind of you know thing. I couldn't sit there and do a whole show like that. I worked overnights once. Okay, I don't know what I did for this is going. I know you're just sitting there eating soyd cheries. So this is why never come in

with the overnight guy, is there? You got to learn some stuff trying to choose your You got to create your own adventure when you're doing overnight radio and you can only steal so much pizza from your co workers out of the fridge. We had I won't tell you where it was and which company it

was for. We had much earlier in my radio career. We had a young woman who worked She worked in an overnight capacity for one of our other stations, so as NETS wasn't here or anything, and she ended up getting fired one day, and it was real kind of wasn't a lot of info as to what happened, and later the story came out. So the story was, so she was working overnight and she worked in a not as a like an on air show host, but doing support stuff like traffic, weather,

dus kind of stuff. And she was the only one there and she when she did her shift, she was the only person and there's not a ton to do. But that was back in the day when they still have you know, full time people in there, and she was supplementing her income by doing basically this is pre only fans, but only fans kind of stuff literally in the studio. And it came to light because something that she was

using her work computer and there was some she wasn't really smart. There was something wrong with the computer and Soley Engineering Tech supports and they're ripping it up and going through the going through it and she's literally got folders of this stuff that she was selling to people. And you know what, I remember, she probably was one that was probably selling a lot of stuff that people be interested buyers. But yeah, yeah, they didn't take can you could literally

see like some of the station logos stuff in the photo. Hey, that's my microphone, she's so Yeah, well was it wasn't the studio I worked in. She had her own studio which they had let we had these um these big mural things in each of the studios that had all of the stations and yeah, oh boy, all right eight eight eight nine three four eight seven four told man, it's weird. I don't know what the hell's going on. The don't move where Dave lives either. By the way, are

you factoring in nudist colonies? I only in this sense that they are factored in in this, which is why I'm not surprised that Florida has a lot of entries. So, but I is there is there a large nudist colony I'm unaware of in the Greater Triad Triangle in Charlotte Areas. Baby never really looked into it. I don't know. Uh, Joey, real quick, what's up? Hey? If it's in the h OA coming in some restrictions that you can't do nothing about it, so yeah, read well, yeah,

you bet him. Nowadays, I guess you never know what's going on down Hey, man, it's that girl in the studio only fan I hope that microphones weren't being treated like the God. Yeah, sir, sir, we're not going to go any deeper into this story. I was very careful to tell it in a way that but honestly, the thing that blew me away the most was just how dumb she was. What do you know we joke about on Ross's computer as a folder called not porn. Hey, there's

not really a not porn folder or a porn folder for that matter. Is this the work computer? And we got a story with something a little questionable. The first thing, obviously either one of us does we grab our personal cell phone to look it up. I'm sure you're the same way at work. I don't know, but but it's you know, it's just and then she's just like, yeah, no, come in, Yeah, now my

computers having a problem, and Dud's digging around looking for stuff. And I think the problem their computer was having has had so much crap on it because she had these video files. It's like these people who dropped to drop the old laptop off at geek Squad and then geek Squad pops it open and that you your background is child porn. Like I'm baffled, by these guys.

I'm glad they're so dumb so they get caught. But still, all right, six fifty one, hang on show after the show case on the iHeartRadio app. Searchs Casey O Day for the podcast on the iHeart radio app. All right, good morning, It is six fifty seven here from the CACD radio program. All right, so that's four. We're up to four now. I received three emails plus we had the caller of people who've had neighbors

that do this the thing. You know, ideally you would not want to have a neighbor that, you know, dude does this right, that's the I guess that's the perfect scenario. If you have no idea, then arguably they're doing it right based on the fact that you know, you didn't sign up for that, unless you're some purv with some binoculars up on your roof or something. But um, yeah, AnyWho, So that's a thing. That's the thing that exists. People are arguing what level of well show?

Was it? Gardening? Is it lawn maintenance? Is a farm? Did you misread it where it was the term plowing? I don't know, you know, you'd scare the mule stirs that the allowing you mean, I don't know what you mean. I'm innocent, So poor mule and he gets into a whole other thing. All right. Coming up on the show, Senator Ted Buddle join us here in one hour. That'll be an eight oh five, So FYI on that and the saga of the two escapees from Virginia.

We have more to that story. We'll get it to you coming up. Hang on. Sorry, good morning everybody. It is seven oh six here on the PCO Day Radio program. Seven h seven. Now, good morning to you. Coming up on the show, eight oh five, Senator Ted Buddle join us. I've got a whole host of fun and exciting things to chat with him about. So we generally talk to him about once a month or if something's happening. I guess, but there is, there is plenty

of happening. I guess. Um again, I'm I'm still I'm still in my u of my sullen Uh. Screw them all till they proved me wrong when it comes to these big promises of big reveals, right, And that's that's what's going on here. James Comer and Chuck Grassley and others are saying, you know, because they actually told the ATF or not at F,

the FBI. Sorry, I was just watching an ATF video somebody sent me where they're running around trying to get bump stocks and stuff from people, and uh, all of a sudden, people are like, you know, it's a screw all y'all. So I do enjoy those videos, thank you for sending um. But um, yeah, so they said the the d O j FBI don't arrest Hunter before Wednesday because Wednesday we got all the whistleblower stuff.

And I don't know why that would necessarily matter. I'm sure there's some legal reason, but um, I'll be curious to pick Ted Bud's brain about what's up with that. What does he know? In fact, here is James Comer, what was this from yesterday? Or this is from yesterday or over the weekend? Well, Senator Grassley and U received a up on a

whistle blower saidor Grassley was the lead in this. We've reviewed documents from the legally protected whistle blower, highly credible whistle blower that would implicate Joe Biden in a pay per play scheme in uh trying to set up a deal to receive funds to he and his family in exchange for foreign policy decisions. All right, So and that's you know when they don't say which country, and um,

it's a little I guess a little more info they're saying there. Some people are saying it might be a series of accounts, which you know that

you would need something like that. But then you get into the gray areas and the nuances of it, you know, and like you saw with the Clinton Foundation, where you had people who had big policy things that they wanted done, sometimes outside entities, foreign foreign governments, and other individuals who couldn't contribute necessarily to Clinton's campaign for president because they weren't US citizens, but they

could make a thirty million dollar donation to the Clinton Foundation. And where people misunderstand that is when they were defending them, they're going, well, it's not like they're spending you know, they're just spending all that money on themselves. And you're right, they were largely wasting it for administrative stuff and building six houses in Haiti after the earthquake. They were supposed to build a few more, but you know, things come up, and but it provided a

large it provided an advantage as well in other ways. Sure, there's this, you know, meals and entertainment, travel, and you can kind of run all that through, but there's a certain prestige thing there. So you would then be so and so from the Clinton Foundation, and you'd get awards, and you get speaking engagements and the six figures. And yes, you would have got some of that already because of who you are, but it

was a much more streamlined way to handle that. And then you can use the foundational money to push passion projects and political projects that are also in net benefit to you, So you get into so depending on the level of nuance there, it'll be interesting to see what, if anything, they actually unveiled. But after hearing Adam Shifts say that he had all this collusion evidence he'd seen and nothing, you know, nothing, I don't know. I'll take

a wait and see approach. How's that? But we'll chat with him. This story out of Plainview, Texas with this, Kyle, did you see the story of the six year old little girl Plainview, Texas assaulted by classmates? Oh god, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, horrible, that's the one they covered up. Well yeah, yeah, I was just gonna say, there's so much more to this story. I'm just I'm baffled that some of the adults at the school here, and I use that word in

quote, you can still walk. I'm not encouraging people to do that, but I gotta think any grown men around this little girl and her family, father, brothers, whatever it is, I don't know, they didn't lose absolutely lose their minds. How old? How old is a little girl? Six? Six? And this is the same kind of nonsense though that changed so many things up in Virginia when you had a similar situation with a school

district. Right school, Yeah, but this is six. Come all right, Well let me actually, you know what, let me just hit this story real quick and then well, speaking of Virginia, we'll get into the prison escape piece story. But now I've kind of put it out there instead of all right, so check this out. This is horrible. I'm just gonna let you know. I'll be delicate, but and this is a plain view Texas, Texas. So parents are demanding answers after a six year old

was forced to perform a Remember how I just mentioned the Clintons. We'll think of Bill Clinton and Monica Lewinsky. Catch him adrift? Right, okay? In class on a classmate. Uh forced, So basically, some some kids in the class physically forced the six year old little girl under a table, where she was then forced to perform set act on one of the one of

the boys there. The teacher this is in the classroom. The teachers in the classroom but failed to notice because quote, she had headphones in to listen to soothing music. What how do you how do you helm a classroom and create a situation where you can't hear anything that's going on and you're not paying a tension. I understand that it not at every moment. You're you're up at the board, you know, with the chalk and the lecture going.

And that's fine. There's times when kids are going to be working together, but but don't you monitor that. I can't think of a scenario my entire school, in my school life where when a teacher was in one of the classrooms that I was in, that a one student could be under a table doing that with obviously, and and oh, by the way, they also used the class iPad to film it. And I'm only getting started on this story. Happens in the classroom teachers and their teachers zoned out listening to music.

They're filming it with school equipment, and when it when it when they figured out because kids, you know, little kids, they can't shut up. Nobody can keep a secret. So obviously this this, this got out, this got around when they filled the school found out, they opted not to notify the parents. They made a conscious decision to not involve the parents.

So how did the parents find The parents find out? Because remember the school found out because kids are talking about The parents found out because their daughter was she had a she had a significant visible emotional change, right, you know when something's off when you're with your kid. So this girl is, this girl's walking around They don't even they don't recognize their daughter because of the way that she's acting, and they start digging in, as parents do,

and eventually the story comes spilling out. And of course she she's carrying the bucket loads of shame here because even at six, she's determined that if school officials tried to cover and hush this up, that it must be something to be, you know, shameful. And she was there regardless of whether she was forced or not. And so in her little six year old mine, um, she's ashamed of herself and she feels horrible and starts impacting her behavior.

Now, one of the articles says the teacher was distracted with another student. Um. But in the article where they're quoting UM, they're quoting one of the one of the school officials. The story is the headphone story. So, UM, I believe the headphone story. I don't believe any of

the another student. I think that that was the initial one. But once we start digging into this and info starts coming out, you realize the level of irresponsibility that was going on. So while they didn't contact the parents, they did notify the state investigators, the CPS, I guess, and they found out that only has it didn't happen to this little girl, but it

was not the first time it had happened. In fact, even after they first noted this, the same students were made because they sit at these community deaths I guess for a week and a half after the kids were all at the same desk. Still. So, now this little girl's got to go to school and every day she's sitting there across from the people who literally raped

her, and the school knows every day. The girl's great aunt spoke out at a protest last week as parents demand answers and more importantly, firings. There's videotape of a sexual assault of their six year old. This whole thing's going on, and they never involved the parents. They don't even they don't

even get into punishment. They don't even separate the kids. A statement issued by the school district detailing the steps they took included, let's see, let me read it from their perspective, the incident where a six year old was sexually assaulted by another six year old while another six year old filmed it and screamed in the video, you can hear this is why I believe the headphones thing. More so in the video, apparently investigators say you can hear another

other student screaming, do it? Do it? That happened on four nineteen. On four twenty, apparently the music's done. The teacher noticed the password on the iPad had been changed, so she took it to it, which is where material was found. And rumors had already been circulating, and obviously it quickly unfolded what was going on while the teacher is unpaid administrative leave. Um the two Now the boys parents were contacted. The girls were not that's why I A, yeah, I have no idea. I have no idea

why why you would involve one set and not the other. Obviously people are continuing to protest there. Um Again, I I don't understand. I can't even imag I don't have kids, and I can't even imagine somebody not um that you know if they don't, if you don't do something, this is what we talked about earlier this week, talked about this last week. You see the subway stuff, you see the guy grabbing the shoplifter at home depot.

When when people feel that there is a fundamental breakdown of you know, right and wrong and orderly justice in America or anywhere for that matter, human nature is to then take justice into your own hands, especially in a place like Texas. Remember this is the stay where a guy and I'm cool with this decision. By the way, this guy, what was it like at a rest stop? Or it was a rest stop or some roadside attraction thing.

They're there and they're running around looking at some historical something and Dad's like, wears, what happened to my little girl? And they thought that she had run back behind this. I think it was an old like historic barn or something, I don't remember what it was, and like so he goes

around. Look it comes around and there is some dude some other, some other guy who is literally in the middle of molesting this guy's daughter at like this pulled this Texas roadside rest stop thing, and dad beat him to death with his hands. I don't think he even went to court. So when you have that fundamental breakdown and people don't feel that justice is being done, they tend to try to do their own thing, and regardless of what you

think of their intentions, it's sometimes very messy, all right. Eight eight eight nine three four seven eight seven four Cindy, what's up? Hey? What do you expect? There is such a disrespect for education in this nation that we are hiring teachers who should never ever have been admitted to a teacher education program or been put in a classroom. We are not paying teachers anything in this nation, and therefore we are attracting the worst of the worst.

And so I'm an educator of thirty plus years, and unless you have a spells who makes a livable wage that you can actually exist in this country, you can't. You cannot survive being a teacher. By yourself, and so therefore people are going into education who should never have been in education. So when stories come out like this, this is upsets me so badly because it

perpetuates the idea that teachers are horrible and it's not true. It's the kind of teachers that are being educated and hired because of the wage Cindy I, And here's the thing. I fundamentally agree with the concept that somebody who is a good teacher, and I could say I can rattle off all of my teachers just as most people can who I think we're great teachers, and then I know the ones who I thought were horrible teachers didn't care, disconnected where

you could tell they hated being there. And my thing is, I have yet to see where we are able to properly gauge who they are and who they aren't. In many times that's stymied by people who claim to represent teachers right where they don't. They don't want us to be able to break it down. So if somebody is a fantastic educator, I think that they should be paid a princely sum for doing that because of the service that they provide.

But we've never really been able to figure out how to evaluate. Thank you very much for the call. You appreciate it. I've got to go to break. I'm sorry, Sydney, I got to go to break. But we'll be right back. A new decade on the calendar and celebrating ten years on the air. This is one oh six one FM Talk in the Triangle and News Talk ninety four five WPTI in the Triad. All right, seven thirty six, So welcome back, case O Day Radio program. I

just want to finish my thought. We had a caller before the break there. She's an educator, said that as we're discussing the story out of Plainview, Texas, that um them the way that we compensate teachers is inevitably going to bring in an element of teachers who are not good at their jobs, don't give a crap. I don't necessarily disagree with that. But the thing that has struck me for years covering issues having to do with school teacher pay

all of that is this. There is never every time somebody suggests maybe we need to find a way to evaluate whether somebody is an effective teacher, I hear either teachers union reps or lead negotiators or you know vocal vocal educators, not all of them, but generally the ones that get them the either the mic time or in positions to speak on behalf of groups of teachers just rejected

out of hand. And that's not the way that the world works, and that's not the way that you're able to improve who you have or what you do. In my business, and I understand that maybe it's not as nuanced, but in my business, if you want, you know, if you want to evaluate the job that I'm doing, there are several metrics, but ratings and revenue generally lead the way. And frankly on the revenue even if you don't have necessarily the highest ratings, but you have good revenue that can

make up for a lot. But if a lot of people listen, therefore you're able to sell the spot time for you know, a decent amount of money. That's how they're determining whether we're doing our job around here, and

I accept that. But until you can find a way to properly evaluate the job that a teachers doing, their value to the profession, it becomes hard in people's mind to just sit there and say, well, we need to pay them all more because there is no profession where you need to pay each and every person more right off the bat, or at least given the same

increase, because that's not they're not not everyone as equally as effective. I think my history teacher, mister Maider should have made the the the lion sum of the money should have sure as hell, made a lot more money than Miss de Bach or Miss Jarvis. They were not They were not good teachers. Jarvis was legendary for how much the students loathed her class because she would you just come in and there'd be something written on the board, read this,

answer these questions. She's sitting at her desk doing you know nothing. You ask a question, she get mad at you. We're kids, we know what's up. Mister Mader was amazing at history. Mister Grassley and Miss Grassly, his wife, taught two. They were both very good teachers. I learned a lot. I wanted to be in their class, and it fostered. And they also did a very good job of not just teaching me what they were teaching, but teaching me how to be hungry to learn.

And it's obviously through my own experience I'm able to determine that, but I think it was readily apparent the jobs that those two teachers were doing when you looked at enthusiasm among all of the students. And I refuse to believe the teachers in right now don't know who is a better teacher than them or a worse teacher than them. I don't believe that for a moment, because we self evaluate the people that we work with. Kyle forgot to upload the podcast

yesterday. We had to flog him. Oh you know, sometimes you gotta do stuff, and you know I won't make that mistake today. Sorry, Getting valleys people are emailing me. I'm like, oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, it's up. I promise. I'm saying yesterday's Yesterday's podcast is up, and today's will be up after the show. So, you know, a guy fills in once every year and a half. I know,

I know, I'm just teasing. We're good, but I'm like, oh yeah, yeah, yeah, all right, so we got that taken care of, all right, anyway, let me and then let me read this email real quick. I'm not unsympathetic to teach your pay issues, but I find it galling. The caller's first and most visceral reaction is to worry about how it makes teachers. Look. This is the type of thinking that leads to covering it up in the first place. M Yeah, I mean I

understand why why you would be concerned how it makes it makes look. I don't know that that's your only thought. But to your second point, this type of thinking leads to covering it up in the first place. Yeah, yeah, I think that that's why people cover stuff up. That's why in plain View, Texas, they realized that you'd call somebody and telling their six year old daughter was sexually assaulted by your classmates with a teacher in the room,

and it was filmed for posterity. They're probably not going to be quiet about it. All right, let's get to the calls. Jennifer, go right ahead. Hey, Kasey, good morning. It's very simple answers, not complicated. It's not about money. It's this nation has turned it back on God in Psalm nine nine seventeen paraphrase and says any nation that does that will be turned into a health scape. So when we were prayer in nineteen sixty two, you can look at the test scores. They significantly decreased and

everything has went downhill. School shooting. Everything results from not worsp in Jesus Christ. And that's all I wanted to say. Have a great day, all right. I appreciate the caller, Jennifer, you know, whether you approach it from that being, I think you're dealing with death with a thousand

cuts. But even for those who don't want to hear the religious side of it, I think we can all agree that if a student is even alleged in this case, they have video alleged to have been sexually assaulted, the very least is to involve the parents, right, can that just? I mean, that just seems like common sense. Also, maybe not having the kids around each other who were involved. Steve, go right ahead, Hey Casey. So yeah. Originally, you know, was like, as a

parent, I tear that place apart. I mean, I can't imagine what those parents and that child are dealing with and the horrific nature of what happened. But as I told Kyle, the reason I called was the first callers responses, well, if you pay us more, we want to let your kids get raped. That's the way it comes across. And for me, that just tells me what I've been feeling for years and in fact, have changed my lifestyle so that my kids can get into a private school where we

pay more. As citizens, we should have the right to determine if this school system is functioning well and it's not. You see all of videos of of you know, people that should never be around children, you know, indoctrinating them in their ideology and their lifestyle that you know, it goes against what the of course what the caller just called him right before me said. So as citizens, we're not given a choice where our dollars go. And

that's that's the problem. And you know the teacher they called him, Yeah, are they not paid enough yet? But it's it's a government agency where if the money goes to the superintendence and all the people at the top, and it trickles down to the bottom and there's nothing left for the teachers. Well, if you're a good teacher, I should be able to pay you, and I should be able to pick where I send my kid. And House Bill A twenty three that's out there right now is starting to try and

do that. Give me back the power to pick where my kids go, and then you the school that I start sending my kids too, can hire the right people, and more importantly and right, but also also, and there is data to back this up in multiple states, the schools where parents don't pick are forced to improve themselves, and they've actually they've shown in Florida,

New York. I believe even when when vouchers get into the mix, the schools that are not necessarily the first choice, they have to make some hard choices, and they have to they have to market to parents essentially provide the invite nament that what parents want. So we'll see, yeah, all right, thanks for the thanks for the And if that means recruiting educators that parents want their kids educated by, then, like anything else was supplying to

man, there's going to be an inherent cost with that. And that's when you get into binding the teachers that are doing good a good job, and compensating them in a fair manner, because if you don't, your competition might all right, forty five Race Stagick from the Weather Channel is hanging out ready to ruin your day for many parts of North Carolina, I mean mainly south of us though, right, yeah, I think most of us escaped this

morning with nothing more but a passing shower, especially out near the triad where this weakening area of rain and thunderstorms is doing that weakening. So a shower, maybe a thundershower's gonna be tough to get him into the triangle. So as you go west this morning where it is raining right now and Hickory and Asheville, you have a little better chance. And then as you get into

the afternoon, after many hours casey of dry weather. I think later today, as the front actually comes in, we'll have sun and clouds, and we're talking toward dinner time the next round of showers and thundershowers coming in, So in between it's warm and humid, mid upper eighties, and then that line will go through and by tomorrow we'll be back into sunshine and pleasant weather and the rest of the week is going to be real nice, mid seventies

tomorrow, near eighty on Thursday, and then load a mid eighties on Friday. So this morning's chance is better west of a few showers, maybe a thundershower, especially west of the triad. This afternoon, we're all in it with the front coming in, and as you had said, there is a risk for stronger storms, especially south southeast, but we all should get at least threatened by some showers thundershowers. We get past all that. The rest of the week's going to be real nice. Okay, thank you, sir.

I appreciate it. Talk to you an hour and we'll come back, get more calls, and oh boy, we're gonna dooz you. This is a novel somebody sent me on the cardining story we did in an h O A wow. All right, hold on, we'll get into it. Coming up. Ten years of news twice an hour and smart talk all day ninety four five w PTI in the Triad and one oh six one FM Talk in

the Triangle. All right, good morning everybody. It is seven fifty two here on the case O Day in the radio program phone number eight eight eight nine three four seven eight seventy four. Do do do, all right, let me grab a quick phone call in the just a couple of things. We'll talk to a senator Bud two coming up eight oh five, Corey, what's going on? Hey, Kathy, I was just calling in regards to

send the's call earlier. What my reflective was she basically absolved the educators to include the administrators of any wrongdoing by saying that what the reason why this happened is because they weren't paid enough. So essentially she's having to blame onto the voters who elected legislators who set the salary. I mean, I've wrote some low paying jobs, but if I enjoyed what I did, I busted my butt to do a good job at it. So don't come at us with

this thing about well, we're not paid enough. Now. In my opinion, it's more about the fact that the public education system doesn't have any challenges, so they have no incentive to do better. And that's why I think school choice is so important. Yeah, no, I don't disagree with you, but I also think too, to your point, there are some things that are just bare minimum, right. You know, do you when you're paying somebody minimum wage and they're working at a fast food restaurant, you're going

to have certain expectations. But your expectations aren't going to be that they're you know, they're going to be an outside brand ambassador and do social media state you know what I'm saying. You you're hiring them to come in and worker shift and do specific things, so you expect the bare minimum. And I'm sorry, but I think not having one of your students raped by the other students in your class while you're in there should be the lowest of expectations.

So but yeah, I'm the father, and it comes down to trust. I mean, we're trusting the educators to have our children's less interests at heart, to include their mental or physical health and safety. So don't sit here and tell me, well, you need to pay me more money for me to be for you to be able to trust me, you don't take good care of your children while they spend six seven hours with me every day.

Money, tough Friday, and just horrible argument. Yeah, well, the justifiable complain that I've heard from teachers and I dated a teacher for a long time, and what drove her a while and thanks for the call there, Corey, was what was so frustrating is well a couple of things, the

politics of her teachers union. This was in another state. She eventually left the profession when got a super high paying job working for one of the big banks as an actuarial something something I don't know, some math I could never

do. But the frustration was parents right, She'd have a student who she realized needed some extra attention and some help, but she tried to coordinate with the parents, and it was that partnership, and I you know, and teachers will say it's really hard when the parents don't seem to care, and I agree, I agree, But how are they supposed to care if there's

a problem when you don't even call them. That's when you get a dad showing up in Loudon County, Virginia listening to a superintendent lie about what happened to his daughter, and he loses his damn mind and starts yelling at a meeting and then has labeled a domestic terrorist and prosecutors literally try to prosecute the dude. Just bonkers, real quick. Somebody sent me this email. This is this is on this list of like naked gardening enthusiasts for some reason,

North Carolina's very popular. I don't understand it. Um all right, So I'm gonna let me just I can't read this whole thing. I wouldn't even fit in the time that I have a loted So basically, dude said that he and his wife they didn't they don't have any kids, or they have kids now, but they didn't have kids at the time, but they bought

a home in an HIA neighborhood. They were single story home, so there was no line of sight into their yard, and they had a jacuzzi back there, and yes, they would utilize it in they they didn't want to do bathing suit laundry if he catched my drift. And then he said that he got a notice from his HOA that they were being complaint that they were out in public naked and um, and he couldn't figure out what it was. And then another one and so he went to the HLA and it's like,

we're utilizing our private backyard and the way we see fit. We don't have to answer to you. And how the hell has anyone seen it? Because they couldn't figure out what was going on. And it turned out that eventually there was a neighbor who had like a pole birdhouse thing and on it he had put a security camera that didn't look like a security camera, and this person there watching the neighbors and the HIA is trying to run our listener

and his wife out of there. So yeah, I'm sorry, sir, but yeah, that would be my first question, like what the And they wouldn't tell him, They wouldn't tell him what was up so they didn't know forever and then they figured it out. So all right, I'm sorry that happened to you, sir, But some people want to garden in the stuff. I prefer more manly activities like that, like gardening, bitch, Like

naked welding. Is there a naked welding community? Now you were, you'd wear the obviously you got to wear the eye protection, right, you don't want to go blind. So I'm not or naked beekeeping. Wait, if you're in a new if you're in a newdest colony. These are all jobs that need to get done. I mean, somebody's got to do that, right, gotta have honey, and sometimes metal needs attached to other metal, pipe fitting, pipe fitting. I'm just saying somebody's got it. Somebody's got

to step up to that challenge. Gardening, yeah, I mean yeah, bees and bugs and dirt and chemicals and stuff. But talk to me when you're when you're throwing down a bead, there's a visual you didn't need. All Right, we'll get into, you know, political type stuff, because we're gonna chat with Senator Ted Bud coming up. They're busy up in DC, and we'll hear the very latest in just a few minutes. You're on the case O Day radio program. Hi, good morning everybody, and welcome

is eight o six. You're on the k c O Day radio program. I hope to tuesdays getting rolling U and UM we'll chat coming up later. Get a forecast for you. Sorry, I was trying to get my little call screen and rebooted. I'm stalling. There we go, all right, so I need it so I can welcome our next guest, US Senator Ted Bud joining us this morning. How are you doing today, sir, j C. Great to be with you, Thanks for having me. I think

that stuff happening. Yeah, yeah, yeah, well you guys, I mean just a mile a minute over the last few weeks, and we'll try to drudge through most of it. I'm assuming the Chinese are trying to hack my call screener because I don't want you to be heard, sir, So sorry about that. We'll delay there. But we got that truck in now. Um. You know, it's it's funny sitting there talking about technology and various other stuff. Um, it's interesting, so I believe it or not,

I actually do. Look at the press releases all you guys send me because I get them obviously from our entire delegation, and Um, generally people are kind of pet project. You're all over the place like I. You're over there hanging out with the Australian ambassador, you're co sponsoring legislation with Kirsten Gilderbrand, Um, and um you're what was the what was the one I

just saw the other day? UM? My point is, Senator Um, you're kind of settling into what it is you're going to be doing up there, and how do you kind of find that niche? Because I think that people get themselves into I would say paths, like I kind of tend to know the stuff Ted Cruz is going to be working on, or Tom Cotton for that matter. So what do you see your role developing into other than just representing the state of North Carolina. Well, the whole theme is all

wrapped around strong nation. If you see me working on the China bill or the border bill or something on the economy, that might look like, oh, this is three different things, but everything raps around what does it take to maintain us or grow us or return us to being a strong country. Everything that Joe Biden has done has been to weaken us, whether that's Afghanistan, whether that's energy policy, whether that's China policy, and everything that I

want to do makes us a strong country. So that's the theme that anything that I in the lens that I look through is going to revolve around is strong nation. I think that one of the things that makes us strong too is a robust education system. Here obviously, this is a state issue in the sense that North Carolina is on the cusp of perhaps expanding into a school choice state. At the federal level, though, that's a discussion that's relevance,

and so obviously there's federal dollars. Is that something that even gets murmured about in Washington? Or is that just doa based on the current makeup of Congress. Are you talking about education and believing that we should have a strong educational system to make a strong country well in and to do it through competition and allowing parents options and their money to follow the students. And that's what North Carolina is doing. So what at the federal level or are you guys

doing well? The vast amount of funding comes from the states, and I think that's the closer to home you get with education, the closer to the parents that you get the better. But everything we want to do is about more choice, and I think that leads to better outcomes. Hearings know what's best for their child. Us if it's a bad school and they said, you know what, we want to take our kids to a good school with a better report card, that absolutely they should have that choice. And we

see wins all the time. I think when school systems are immune from competition, it leads to complacency, it leads to bad grades, it leads to worst outcomes for our kids, and that's a bad outcome for our future, and that's not leading to a strong country. So I think educational freedom, educational choice, parents' rights for their students, for their for their kids, leads to a stronger nation. I expect Thursday is going to be an interesting

day. If if what Rep. Coomber and Senator Grassley are I guess promising or alluding to comes to fruition. For those who don't know, we did

play the audio earlier. Both of them spoke to a whistleblower who may provide information about what appears to be uh you know, it was pay for consideration kinds of things with outside entities to Biden and Biden's family members, And I'm sorry, I sit here and you guys make a lot of promises, especially when it gets into the really you know, go out and get the other team stuff. I remember Adam Schiff talking about all of this collusion evidence he'd

seen with his own eyes. So is this once again just that building up, albeit on the other side, or do you think that they actually have something? And Thursday we're all going to be shocked? What are you hearing? When I look at Comer in the House and I look at Grassley in the Senate, Let's remember that Comer has the power of subpoena since he is in the majority. Unfortunately Grassley and we do not on the Republican side.

But I like what Representative Colmer is doing because he is a level headed, so solid, nose to the grindstone kind of member. He's not a red meat only type person. So I think whatever he's got he's serious about. He's not a flame thrower's I think he's very diligent in his homework, so I take him at his word, and I think he's going to be very He's going to have something, and he's not premature in his comments so I

really look forward to seeing what he's what he's assembled here. And it's scary some of the things that are being indicated about the web of influence and influence peddling that the Biden administration in the Biden family have done and accumulated over more than the last decade. I don't disagree with you, but it's scary in a lot of senses. You're surrounded by people whose influence and frankly, bank

accounts have grown exponentially in ways that the most of us don't understand. How someone goes makes one hundred and seventy four thousand a year or whatever it is, and is ten million dollars richer after ten years. That doesn't doesn't especially with how expensive it is in DC. So, I mean, this is ramp I get it if somebody, you know, if somebody has a business background, if they had something, you know, a business on that side.

But these people have nothing, no business experience, and then they end up, you know, a hundred times wealth here or infinitely times wealth here. They got a net worth of zero, Yeah, our tens and hundreds of millions. That makes no sense. I'm not talking about somebody that owns a business that you know is operating with the team. Uh, this is something that there's no traceable business and they build this vast wealth. It doesn't

make any sense. The other the other thing that is going to happen this week, and I don't like the way it's shaping up. And I'm sure you're on this because I know it's an issue that I've seen you speak about. We're going to make this change down at the board or. We got National Guard down there. Uh, we have what fifteen hundred members deployed, and we got folks that are literally staging on the other side of the boarder over getting rid of this COVID policy that is that has kept this remain in

Mexico thing going on. Do you think it's just gonna just turn on this bigot and here we go this week? I mean, how concerning is this? This is tremendously concerning. You know, I've been there multiple times, We've had conversations about it. I've talked with law enforcement all around North Carolina, and you've heard me say every single county in North Carolina is now a border county because of Joe Biden's policies. Simply foot, we need to extend

Title forty two. I mean, already, in just the last two years since Spider's been office, we've had over five million illegal border crossings, and that is with Title forty two in place, and that's going to end Thursday night, the eleventh, at midnight. So we need we needed an emergency patch. We need to continue it. The border is about nineteen hundred and thirty miles long, and if you send one thousand, five hundred military down

there, people from the army or National Guard, that's window dressing. And they're not even really for enforcement, as I understand it. They're more for paperwork and processing. That's that's that's ridiculous. And you're let's remember you're not just one person per mile or you know, or one and a half miles. This is paper processing, there's gas, you know, there's so much that they're just not doing. This is and there's three shifts a day,

there's weekends to cover. This is severely understaff. You have Alexander may Orcus who is against his own people. Now he says a wonderful border patrol people, but everything he does is about undermining it. Even if this false narrative of a year ago about you know, horsewhipping and all that crazy stuff, which we know is not even true. He's about demoralizing his own people, understaffing them, under resourcing them, and about not continuing Title forty two.

So he's either asleep at the switch, which I think it's worse than that. I think this is a very intentional crisis created by Biden the administration in Alexander may Orcis. You're on the e Commerce Committee, correct, absolutely? Okay, all right, just for people to know, the senators, it's like commerce, science and transportation, what health and education and small business? Right, those are your committee assignments. Yeah, and armed services so conces.

Yeah, commerce has transportation inside of it, and then armed services emerging threats. That's all one plus small business. And then health education or the health is the acronym HLP. It's health, education, Labor and pensions. All right, Well, let me let me jam some concerns together on a particular issue, and commerce and obviously small business would be impacted by this.

Was it last weekend? It was last weekend right where we go into the weekend, and all of a sudden at the end as we head in on Friday, one of the last little news things I read before I try to turn my brain off for a little while. Is that, Oh, no, another medium sized bank failed, but don't worry, we already sold it to another big bank and everything's fine. This is following what you saw with

multiple banks Silicon Valley and others. Now, I don't want to go somewhere of the shark here, So tell me if people are being too concerned about this. But are we setting up for a much bigger problem all two thousand and eight? I mean, what is the analysis that you guys are doing on this, because everyone's saying, ah, now everything's fine. Yeah. Look, I think anytime there's a bank failure or you know, I think what now we're looking at is three. I think that's a major problem.

But then you and so, yes, you're rightly concerned. I think people are rightly concerned to raise eyebrows, to look closer at FDIC, say what's going on. But I think what you have, whether Silicon Valley Bank or First Republic, is some similar issues as you have protecting against bank runs because people are putting in massive deposits. These are it's all similar to Silicon Valley types. This is these are California banks. They are undermanaged they are.

There's a lot of uninsured deposits that are starting to flee the bank. And so there's similar problems in a more type of bank, similar locations, similar type of procedures. So I don't think this is a systemic issue. I think this is concentrated around once one model, which is a failed model. I think when you look at more of your traditional banks, I think that there's you're fine, but it's people are right to be asking the question.

I I you know, there's a lot of money leaving banks just in general. You know, it's not if you know anything, if you know anything about interests, keeping your money sitting in a checking account, especially a large sum or a savings account, is just dumb, right, There's there's a lot of money in the Yeah, yeah, you put your money in a CD MAC. You know. I'm seeing these postcards coming into mail, like

four and a half percent. If you're losing, you know, you've got six percent seven percent inflation, you're one and a half two percent underwater. So it's almost like how slow can you stem the beliefs to the target for inflation for the FED has traditionally been two percent, you know, And I think that's that's there's a dual mandate for the FED. One of them is

full employment, the other is price stability or anti inflation. And again, you know, now they're all over the place, and the left wants to put in, oh, how about climate change. We need to make sure you have another mandate and making sure that the Fed of all things. Obviously they're not doing a good enough job at inflation, but they're saying you should

handle climate change as well. And that's just systemic of the left is everything they do is about distraction and creating this massive agenda, which means nothing gets done properly, whether it's the border or whether it's inflation. They're completely incompetent. Well, you sniffed out where I was going here one and I think

one of the other big there's two concerns when it comes to banks. One is, and you saw this with some of the not just banks, but also like investment houses where they you know, they take up these no fossil fuel, these green initiatives. Meanwhile, people are investing money and they're sitting there and they're going, why is the return on this so horrible? Look at this guy? They actually stayed in the fossil fuel sector and others, and people are able to move it. But with banks, people are so

dependent on banks. So then the flip side becomes the d banking of people. Whether it's threatening to D bank gun industry, whether it's threatening to D bank groups that are partisan on the right, whom I just want to do banking. So I battle with this whole how much regulation, how much government interference you need. But there's there's a lot of politics steering the ship here. So I find it less comforting when those very same folks are telling me

there's nothing to worry about. Yeah, look again, you're not hearing me say that there's nothing to worry about. And I like it when people's either open. I think you do a great job at it. But remember the purpose of government is to protect and defend people's rights, and when it's asleep

at the switch, people start to lose their rights. And now there are things like private company, whether it is you know, an unfortunate company I disagree with much of their policy, like a black Rock or a Facebook attends to d platform speech and d platform money. Very concerning. They are private companies in the sense of why they might be publicly traded, they're not a government entity. But we have to make sure if these people become public platforms,

that rights are defended and the rights are not being eroded. So it's a it's a huge concern. And then you want to make sure people have alternatives. These platforms and these companies don't become so large that people have nowhere else to go. I think Elon Musk has called that out. Whether it's on Twitter, I mean, that's a public platform that people need to have

make sure they're not being shadow banned. And whether it's on the money side, you know, not the speech side, but the money side, that you don't have people like black Rock which are censoring people or d platforming things like Harbon fuels. And it's very concerning because these things like like a black

Rock, you know, they make money. When everything is popular and money's flooding into it, would people realize that the economic model doesn't work, it begins to fall apart, and that's why you're seeing these esg environmental social governance funds starting to fail or starting to slip because people realize fundamentally, at their very core, they don't work. I got one minute left, what a doozy the the State Geo Pea convention is going to be crazy. De Santists

one night, Trump the next night. Do you think that the current back and forth, to the extent that it is is healthy. Do you think that's a good thing. Everyone just assumes the Scantists will get in, so it'll just ramp up. Trump did endorse you. I'm not asking you to pick a horse here, but what do you know, Ron De Santists, obviously you know Donald Trump. I mean, what are your thoughts on this? What's shaping up? I say, look at the bench. Look at

the bench that the Democrats have. It's Joe Biden, Eric, He's even wandering around the uh you know, in the dugout. But look look at us. I mean, we've got folks like Ron de Sanis, I mean, Nicky Haley, Um, potentially Tim Scott Um, Donald Trump who endorsed me, I have endorsed him. But I'm saying we have where the big tent party. Um, we are are the Party of competence, are the Party of freedom, and people have a lot of choices. And again hats

off to Michael Watley with the MCGP. He's done a great job. He's bringing an in he's not picking a horse, He's letting people make their choice. And I think that's fantastic. And I look forward to the convention and UH and seeing how it goes. And again I'm a break, but thanks for the time, and we'll be back your day smarter and celebrating ten years and keeping you better informed one oh six one FM Talk and News Talk nine four five WPTI More with Casey starts now. One of the one of the

things I do, I try to do my research. One of the things that became incredibly apparent if you want to do traveling, and if you want to do traveling to places like Colombian, Ecuador where I just went, or various other is situational awareness, keeping your head on a swivel. Right, Some people go, I would never go someplace that's dangerous like that or the

State Department warning. But I point this out because one of the things that was top of mind for me and my buddy who traveled with me, we um, we're gonna make sure that you're not putting yourself in a situation where you're just you know, like like Columbia and Ecuador. We may go out, but we're gonna be very the way that we get there and back is

going to be pre planned. You never would leave it drinkling anywhere. You generally in one of those gringo bars in a place like Columbia or Ecuador, you want to avoid women who would be in there, um working, if you catch my drift, because there they drug people. And then there's of course the nightmare scenario where you're in a bathtub with one of your kidney's gone right, so you know you gotta do that. So I'm reading this story

of Columbia and is crazy. Two US soldiers drugged, kidnapped, and robbed at a sports bar. This is in Boga Tak, Columbia, and they were they were just in there watching sports. They were in there, I think watching US soccer actually match. And um, this the the the suspected ringleader of one of these kidnap squads. Do you know George Nori, when George George Noria does Coast to coast, they somebody tried to kidnap him in Mexico. Yeah, when he I remember sitting there. We went to dinner.

When he came to do a visit at Geek, we did a thing at Geek Spurrow back from the day right in Greensboro and uh we uh, George and I went to went to get some dinner after the event, and so we're sitting there eating at um where we go chop house or something. Anyway, we're sitting there eating and you know, we're just taught, you know, talking about you know, very radio stuff and some you know people we know within the industry. And he was and he was telling me.

He goes, yeah, and this thing just happened. And so he was down in Mexico and they got wind of somebody who might have a little bit of money on him, and they tried to kidnap George Nori. Obviously they didn't succeed. But that stuff's crazy that you don't wear. You don't wear jewelry or watches and things out. I mean, these are all things that you gotta do. These guys are just in there trying to watch a soccer match. But what's crazy about this story is the ringleader of the kidnaps squad.

His name is Harry Potter. Kyle, you're a Harry Potter fan. This kid went bad man. Uh yeah, that's a bad wizard. Jeez. It's just it's just funny to me because you're like you're some arch nemesis, horrible criminal, you know, dirt bag. Right, you're running a South American kidnap squad, right, that's a that's bad, bad, bad, bad news man. But you call yourself Harry Potter totally a Draco Malfoy moves. I'm sorry what, well, you know he's a bad guy.

Other the bad guy. You couldn't say his name. That's that's the the the v guy, the who guy, volda. I'm not scared. Wow. Wow you said it. Wow. So if you were running a kidnap kills squad in Columbia, um, you would call yourself Voldemort before Harry Potter absolutely or Malfoy before that. I don't know what the Malfoy is, but that's a bad dude too, right, bad? Oh? Actually, I do know. That's the that's the bully kid, right. His dad's a

powerful wizard. I'm a powerful wizard family. That's how it always is, right, Yeah, he's just an entitled wizard. You're gonna shove me back in the news closet, aren't you. I bet I bet they're uh, I bet Mary do a Karen too right? Just or maybe a trophy Karen or a trophy witch. I don't do the witches, Mary, the wizards, I get maybe they do, maybe they don't. I don't know.

I'm not as I'm not as well versed as put somebody who would fly all the way to England to go ride the Harry Potter train or visit the set that was an amazing vacation. I'm like, I want to go eat endangered turtles in the apocost. You're like, I want to go ride the Harry Potter train. I'm want to go ride the room. I didn't. I didn't need any turtles. By the way, I don't need like the State Department coming for me. I actually I made a joke about that online and

I'm just so paranoid because I posted to Twitter. I didn't worry about as much. Posted to the Facebook two little picture of a turtle, like you know what is intertwine? Government is and all this crap. I probably shouldn't post that. Probably on a list now. Oh you want to hear some craziness. It's gonna be coming down. You're ready for this, because I don't think this chick gives a you know what Britney spears. Oh, hold on, hold on, don't tune out, don't tune out. Trust me,

I'm gonna bring this full circle. You're gonna care Britney Spears along with um, what is this guy's name as a ghost writer. It's pretty popular. He does a lot of these things. Uh and uh Sam Lansky so um. So basically the it is a tell all Britney Spears book, Tell All, and it it talks about her life obviously in you know, coming

up and becoming incredibly worldwide famous where she was ever an adult. Obviously she was in entertainment prior to that, working with Disney, and then onto her career and eventually all of the crap that you saw, all of the you know, the mental breakdown, the shaving the head, eventually into the conservatorship, extracting herself from that and now she's she's married again and that. But that tale of the CD side and behind the scenes of how child stars are

preyed upon within Hollywood. If she really is in there, just laying it all out and rutally honest, I imagine you're gonna see some stuff, do you know what I'm saying? Because that's it's not about Brittany and her ability to dance. It's about this girl who became a sex icon for all practical purposes before she was eighteen. You know, dudes watching her dance around in that school baby hit me one more time? Or how old was she like

fifteen or sixteen when that came out, dance around little schoolgirl outfits. Yeah, I wasn't just I was I'm basically the same age as her, So it wasn't just pervy me as a high schooler going look at that other high school girl. I mean, you had grown adults and you see you hear

these stories in Washington where these kids literally show up these Hollywood parties. Well, apparently they've delayed the release of the book after the publisher says that they have received a ton of strongly worded legal letters from various A list celebrities who

know the entertainer. Basically, they hear the books coming out in their mind, they remember that one time they were at a party and something potentially illegal happened or horrible happened, and they get the lawyer to go, hey, my client doesn't know if they're in the book, but if they're in the book at all and there's anything defamatory, we're going to own you and in

your company. There's a lot of really scared people. And I have to think if there's going to be an example of somebody who's going to have stories of you know, grown adults potentially even sexually abusing you know, these underaged starlets, it's not that unthinkable in Washington, and considering all the crap that she went through, the mental health issue she's dealt with, and probably I

think her opinion that she was abandoned by many of her Hollywood friends. I wonder if she's holding back on this stuff now, whether it's true or not, and whether legal process will come out. Every time we get a peek behind the curtain about Hollywood, especially that era of Hollywood, you don't like what you see and it shows you what a bunch of hypocrites you're dealing with.

I can't even imagine. And there's I've seen photos of some of these, you know, these sixteen and seventeen year old Disney kids at like adult Hollywood parties where they ease, they appear, they appear in the photos to be under the influence. So you may not care about Britney spears and pop music and all of that, but if you've got a bunch of people that are praying on them, which I think many of us imagine that could be the case, and she's willing to put that out there. Could be a

very interesting read. And remember there's there's such an intersection between Hollywood and politics and people in business, I mean, the the rich and powerful hang together. So we'll see, all right, forty six race stage. He doesn't have anything to worry about. We're not doing the Hollywood parties. We're just doing our job. Man, that's right. We're not a listers. But

that's okay, fine with that. So exactly, I'm good right down here at I don't know, toward the middle of the alphabet, probably somewhere down there if I was a hurricane and be here till late in the season,

so exactly, exactly, yeah, but no hurricanes today. So that's now speaking of I don't know if anybody call it the latest updates from the Hurricane Center for this year, but they will start issuing tropical weather outlooks May fifteenth, so that's earlier than June, one would say, have done in all the years past. And while we're on it, most of the seasonal predictions are for a near average season, which is about fourteen name stores, but

none of that. There's more sunshine from just west of the triangle in east and then to the west. There are some showers in the triad spotty at best. That cluster is weakening as I expected, but still make it a shower, especially from about Winston Sale to west of that. The rest of us sunshine, then some clouds this afternoon, probably some isolated showers, thunderstorms late afternoon through early this evening, maybe a strong storm or two, especially

southeast, warm and humid, mid upper eighties. This front will come through. There'll be a different field to the airmass. Tomorrow morning up for forties, low fifties, sunny, low humidity. Tomorrow afternoon lodomid sixties, another cool morning, Thursday morning, another pleasant afternoon on either side of eighty,

and then a little warmer on Friday, lodimid eighties. Then the humidity starts creeping up, and over the weekend could be back into the middle upper eighty degree range, with our next chance of showers and thunderstorms getting in here on Mother's Day, so a little chance later today. I think most of us will see nothing out of this cluster. This morning, and then the rest of the week actually looking pretty good, feeling great. And then after that

the next chance comes in on Sunday. All right, thank you sir, we'll chat tomorrow. Appreciate it, see you yep, and then we'll come back chat with Jeff Bellinger next, hang on celebrating ten years of keeping you connected. This is ninety four five WPTI in the Triad and one oh six one FM talk in the triangle, eight fifty three Bloomberg up fate Now, Jeff Bellinger, what's happening a morning Casey stocks made just as small moves yesterday

and the market closed. Mixed futures are lower across the board this morning, DAL futures and down ninety seven point at the moment. A high stakes meeting on the debt ceiling takes place at the White House today, with President Biden and congressional leaders trying to hammer out their differences and keep the government from defaulting on its debt. That something, expert City would be catastrophic. Small business

owners turned gloomy last month. The sentiment of reading from the National Federation of Independent Business fell back to the lowest level in a decade. Four billion dollar merger was announced today in the betting industry, Temper Ceiling as Temper Selee is buying a controlling stake and Mattress firm from Steinhoff International. Mattress Firm has more than twenty four hundred mattress stores and forty nine saints. After that deal closes,

it's expected to operate as a separate business unit with Temper Seeley. Prices of good Soul Online was down again last month. Adobe reports overall prices were down seven tenths percent from March and down one point eight percent from April of last year. If you've not been active on Twitter for a while but want to keep your account, it might be a good idea to log on occasionally. Elon Musk says the short messaging service will purge in active accounts. He

says some accounts have not been active for several years. And KC. Wendy's is the latest fast food chain to announce plans to test artificial intelligence for order taking. A chat box powered by Google's Cloud AI software will debut next month that a company owned store near Columbus, Ohio. Casey, all right, that's good. I like that one. That's fine, but it's the red

Whopper thing. You didn't get to that story, but Burgers doing a red Whopper for Spider Man and that looks reds the red bun, black sesame seeds, and there'll also be a Sunday top the black and red candies, all tied into the Spider Man across the Spider Verse movie. Yeah, all right, well, good for them, Thank you, sir, appreciate it. Okay, you have a good day. All right, there you go. Jeff Palander down on the Wendy's thing with the AI chat bot for ordering.

I like it, but I want them to use Microsoft's chat bot, the one that went haywire, because I think that would be much more amusing. Again the legendary story. They got this AI chat bot Microsoft, they put it out on Twitter and within sixteen hours it had learned that basically to expouse mind comp and toss all sorts of slurs and insults out because people figured out

how to manipulate it from Reddit or four chan or something. They never let Reddit know that you're there's the ability to screw with something because generally there's some folks over there that will do it, and they did. So can you imagine going into Wendy's and all of a sudden, it's you know, talking about a Hitler or something. Yeah, the Microsoft chatbot never worked out real

well, and Google's had some issues with theirs. So I don't know, man, I guess we'll find out and then quickly post over to this. We are in absolute clown world, man. I just saw this headline Florida neo Nazi who converted to Islam admits to killing roommates for insulting faith. At least this neo Nazis looks like a white dude. The story's out of Texas. Both those pictures, like, I can't wrap my head around it.

So this, So, the dude who's accused of shooting these people at the mall is a neo Nazi, white supremacist, but his first generation immigrant. His parents don't even speak English. He's obviously Hispanic. He's got according to the photos that were released that he's got tattoos like of you know, various Nazi tattoos, except when he goes to commit his big hate crime, he

doesn't kill any Jewish or Black people. And then the dude who ran over all the people with his range rover, they were also attributing some sort of hatred of of of brown people, and he himself is Hispanic. I just it's like, so are these the are these the jobs that white hate people won't do and they had to contract it. I I don't know what's going on, man. And then I read this headline about the Florida neo Nazi who converted to Islam and then killed his roommate. I think there's people just

shove it. LSD in the water. It's just the government, you know what. I'm in on the chemtrails, which is god. I just I don't even know. There's no other explanation. It's just uh I or or at least with the ship. There might be some mental health stuff there. I don't know. Maybe LSD in the water. That's fine, let's just go with that. Drink bottle of water. Who knows. I'm kind of joking, but I'm also still baffled, like the rest of you. We'll talk to you tomorrow. See you
