Tuesday-10-17-2023

All right, good morning everybody. It is Tuesday. There's nothing really exciting when you say it's Tuesday. It's not quite Monday, but you know, so you know, at least a step in the right direction. But it is crazy town. So yeah, it's gonna be one of those shows,

all right. So it's official. It is official. The White House has announced that Joe Biden, who, by the way, I saw yesterday people uh, you know supporters that were using this photo of Joe Biden, like, ah, the statesmen with all of the knowledge, and they were writing these very similar posts to be like, I'm so glad that at this time of increased hostilities in the Middle East, we have somebody with the requisite amount

of experience in these matters to guide us through to a safe path. And then they were they had the most like there's not an Instagram influencer in the world who would have looked at that photo and went, I don't know, that's a little much. With the filters, it was crazy and they couldn't even get all the wrinkles. Plus you're putting posts out about his elder statesmanship. The whole thing was weird, dude, absolutely strange. But no,

he's gonna head over to Israel and I think Jordan as well. We just re review the story here. Biden will head to Israel and Jordan. His concerns mount that Israel Hamas conflict will spread. Where were those concerns coming from? Huh? Part where I rands like, yeah, hey, now's a good time to attack Israel. Was it that thing where they said that yesterday and they're like, yeah, that's probably gonna happen today. Or was it that? Or was it when the New York Times was trying to get net

and Yahoo to step down again? But now he said it over there, he'll join world leaders, both Israeli and Arab leadership. Tomorrow. US Secretary of State Anthony B. Lincoln announced the travel to Israel is the humanitarian situation in the Gaza Strip grows more dire, and is Israel prepares for possible ground attack to root out Hamas militants. Do you know who wanted to go over

there and they're like, nah, nope, we're good. The Ukrainian president, I mean, he's already in fatigues, So kids, you not for maybe because nobody's the world's kind of averted its gaze. I mean, I guess I understand his motivation. And but yeah, the Ukrainian president had indicated that he might want to go to Israel, and they're like, you know, the time's just not right. So that's that's gonna be a no from us. So yeah, yesterday was a really weird day, man, really

strange day. But you know that's why we're here, That's why we do what we do. And then I saw a headline just made me go, you know what, I went off of this ride. Oh that's good. I went off of this ride. I'm gonna I'm gonna save it for you. I somebody tweeted it at US Ross. You know the one I'm referring to, right, the one that yeah, I sure do. It's a doozy. I mean they make a good point, right, good point.

I mean, I mean it's definitely a point. It's a point. Well that's okay, but that's to have a good point, you have to have a point, right. You gotta start with having a point, right. You gotta have a point, and then from there you flush out whether it's a good point or not. Oh my gosh. And there's like three of those stories today. I'm just like, yeah, I await the story that me and me see the guy pushing the button and he's sweating because they're both

like you know, like yeah, yeah, yeah, horrible choices. Dude,

We're all everything's everything's just loony tunes, you know what. I You know, people make a lot of hay over like and and it integrated into pop culture and like Twilight Zone episodes, right, you know, like uh the Red Scare right where homeowners were putting together their own nuke bunkers and then they wouldn't let their neighbors in. It turned into a whole thing because aliens Twilight Zone look it up, but not really like I would understand why somebody

would just be like, you know what, I'm gonna I'm gonna tap out for a year. Let's see if all that food I brought I bought because Glenn Beck was advertising it. Let's see if it actually sustains my family. I'll come out when it's done. Yeah, it's that kind of morning. So we'll give you we'll give you a nice overview of of all of that insanity. Ross. I was thinking, I you know, you used to have in your studio window there, used to have your award with the misspelling

on it. I thought it was fun. Some other stud you took that down. Why'd you take that down? Buddy? You know spring cleaning and clean up every now and again. I was thinking, maybe you need something for your for your office. I want to get for your studio. I want to get you something. But that'd be okay if I just you know, for all you know, I would typically say yeah, But this sounds like a trap. So I'm gonna say no, you don't want a gift.

I don't want to need any It's not about me. Give it to somebody else, pass it along, pay forward, I feel like, you know, but to give it to yourself. No, no, no, no, no, no no, that would be that's selfish. You don't like the guy who's like, I'm gonna get my wife a bowling ball so she doesn't want it. I get it right, the old old canard. There. I just sent you an email. Let me know how many of these you want. Check your email there. Yeah, we're gonna get ross

a new thing for a studio. So ah, dude, already have one. You have one of those? Huh yeah, sure you have a sexy homeless guy calendar. Got to support the community. You know, some of those guys are events, you know, support the troops. What is wrong with people sexy calendar of homeless men? Exploitative or empowering? Oh dear god, they should be thankful. There's a lot of people that pose for calendars and that ends up not even being a calendar. Well there, no,

there is a calendar. But they just they needed more money. Oh is that what it is? Okay, Yeah, they transitioned. You're like, I'm going to be a model. I made it. It's like there's nothing there. It's like securing an apartment, you know what I mean, got a rent apartment. Competition's fierce. Do this story? Holy crap, Holy

crap, markeys heinz, that's sure. List In a wheelchair, hidden from the Utah sun under a scrap of tree shade, he leaned forward, ice pinched in a fashion model squint, his face aimed at a photographer over his shoulders. In the background, but not part of the shoot, a half dozen people sprawled along the sidewalk, men and women who, like hinds,

are part of the city's booming unhoused population. All right, so some photographer went out and found homeless dudes to pose naked, but you know, strategically covered. As part of the shoot, Casenya Kizeva, I can't pronounce this chick's name, started offering instruction think of the greatest love of your life. She called the Hines. You know the problem is, and I don't mean this in a disparagement, the greatest love of his life might be drugs,

ma'am. And I don't know that you turning him into a pinup calendar is helping the situation. Heines brings one leg over the other, exposing each limb narrowed to an obdruct abrupt surgical and below his ankle. Frostbite from sleeping outside last year cost hinds both his feet. Yeah, I think he needs more than a fashion model gig. Imagine you're chilling on the beach and you're about to seduce a beautiful woman, says the photographer. Instead of angry, I

want your eyes to smile a bit, a bit of passion. Maybe dude's angry because everything's gone sideways, and through a combination of perhaps addiction and or mental health issues, he finds himself in this situation and probably doesn't need you taking boudoir photos of him. I don't even know. Man. No, this is one of the Sayer stories and it's gonna look great in Ross's office, or you could take it home, put it next to the data.

Are they really calling it the sexy Nomad calendar? They're calling it the Sexy Nomad calendar, a twelve month spread of unsheltered men in seductive centerfold poses and pouts. It's the third one. They've done this for three years. I'm only hearing of it now and that's why I thought, Wow, this is the perfect gift. Does the perfect gift exists? Yes, it does. Used to live in Salt Lake too. Like you may know some of these dudes. You know what I'm saying. You may have been panhandled by one

of the guys in this calendar. The calendar helps attract attention to the organization, which uses a portion of its resources, obviously to aid the unhoused. As it's written here is the Washington Post piece. I notice it's all dudes. Is there a reason you don't have the female equivalent of this? Or remember the chicken Seattle, who are the homeless person in Seattle who got that pool? Got the pool for the homeless and came out. I believe that

was a woman got the couches there created the spa like atmosphere. I'm just saying, do the whole thing is just so creepy. How much is a calendar? I don't want to overspend and literally I'm not gonna read the whole article, but they literally try to justify it, like, well, one of the things we're doing is we bring in a stylist and a you know, a hair and makeup artists who give them a new look, which they then after the calendar shoot, perhaps can use to parley into future endeavors.

Maybe. And I don't begrudge that right because we do judge books by their cover, But like, there's some other issues going on here. I don't know, was it any more exploited? Remember that homeless due they found on the street and they're like, he's gonna do radio voice over now because he had that that crazy deep voice. It was talented. He's the guy at the Golden Voice and that worked out. Right, He's doing all this stuff.

I did knock his believe it or not, there's some issues that led him to be homeless, and giving him more money didn't really help that fact. Oh no, because there's a Yeah, we went. We caught him. As before in the show, there's like a myth that if you were to build everybody, like every homeless person a house, right, have them like living it, like they would take care of their issues. Well it really wouldn't. Like, No, it's a combination of factors, many of

which are much more deep seated than their outward to appearance. Well, you've got mental health issues, you've got drug addiction issues. Yeah, yep, yep, yep, yep. We look at that and you just look at it. They recently rate they put a bunch of homeless people where was it in New York City? Right? Was? Sorry? And they destroyed the hotel. Yeah, yeah, they kind of did well destroyed it. Look one man's destroyed as an other man's giant drug den, you know what I'm

saying. So if you're into giant drug dens, you're like, wow, this place is amazing. Yeah, it didn't necessarily work out there, so oh here we go forty dollars. Wow, that is an expense. You know what you're worth it? You're worth it, right, you are worth

to Jackson's. That's all I'm saying. I bet shippings more too. The Nomad Alliance, the group behind the calendar, says all told the expect to raise thirty thousand dollars and they hope that this year's funds could be used to buy a new trailer that would provide the opportunity for at least one of the families to move off the street. Okay, then you know they should do. They should move to Chicago into your which Chicago's doing. Oh, I

bet it's not for homeless vets. Though, no, it's probably not. But we'll get to that. And that is just a small sliver a taste an itsy bitsy teensy weensy little amount of the giant bucket of insanity coming your way on the show today. So we'll start there. We'll give you a rundown on a few other things. And boyle boy, is there a lot of news, So stick around for that. Our phone number is always eight eight eight nine three four seven eight seven four. You want to get on

the show. That is how you make it happen, and we'll return, we'll get your calls and a few other things coming up here on the CaCO Day Radio program Your Day Smarter one six one FM Talk News Talk w PTI more with Casey starts now, all right, well, as we get things rolling this morning, we oh, we got a kangaroo fight too. Did I mentioned that that's the thing on the show today. I assume that's every

day in Australia. I just assume that, and we're just for whatever reason, a reporter's like, hey, maybe I should do a story today, but maybe I'm wrong. I don't know. Maybe Aussie Paul's listening and he can he can help us out when we get to that story. So I

mentioned the Zelenski wanted to go to Israel. An official request by the Ukrainian president to visit Israel to quote help show support for the people has been officially denied by no things not the right time, however, world leaders will gather, including Joe Biden tomorrow in both Israel and Jordan. How like, how I haven't seen exact way. He's not going to go anywhere near Gaza, right, right from a security perspective, right, But Israel's not that big

of a country. I don't know, man, I understand why they don't want Zelenski there because nobody's shaking him down for money and likely they'll probably be some of that with Biden, but that dude's just trying to stay relevantly. Hey, hey, hey look at us. So you got our thing going. Remember Democrats have already threatened to attach a one in quote one and done ae hundred billion dollar funding mechanism to anything that would have to do with Israel.

But the from you Tanian perspective, so could get interesting. Also, we have a cancelation this morning, so we'll get that started. You know, for some parents, you guys may uh you may be excited about this, That's what I'm saying. Maybe you're sick of this already. Uh ready, and uh, this this is a This is a tough putt for Disney,

considering all of the woke crap that they're trying to shovel. Uh. Robin DiAngelo h the author of White Fragility, This is one of those one of those books that if you're doing any of the DEI courses, UH is front and center has UH has a pretty hot take on uh, well,

the movie Frozen. How does this idea that children are innocent? I mean, certainly born innocent, but research show I should argue this is not just a hot take on Frozen, but it is also an argument why She thinks Disney and others need to do more to indoctrinature kids rather than just being like, hey, why don't we put out a show that kids like that can sell merch? No? No, no, you must use it for your own Social justice means. Now, does this idea that children are innocent?

I mean, certainly born innocent, but research shows it by age three. As early as age three, they understand that it's better to be white. Wow, let me be clear, not that white people are better, but that it's just better to be white. And let me give you an example of Frozen. The movie Frozen. Okay, huge, this movie, right, I've seen little girls all over the world with the backpacks, and I mean, you can't watch that movie. Know that the ideal is white,

blue eyes, blonde hair, red hair. That's just one example. And you can have maybe a frog that turns into a princess for a minute and goes back to a frog and she's a brown girl. But that doesn't. Oh that's the exception, not the rule. All right, I've never watched Frozen all the way. I didn't see in it. I've seen that movie a few times. Oh really I have is uh mh is there is that

is that is it as she says it is? I mean it takes place in a Nordic country, right, Like, so, I mean, isn't the whole premise it's a fairy tale, right, It's a fairy tale that's born off of u Arndella. It's the place. Yeah, like, uh, what was the the Huntsman movie? Right? Isn't that like the live action movies and it's got like a snow white connection or something. Then I'm not one hundred percent sure, but to your point, it's it's in a

Nordic country. That's the whole point of it. And the reason they kind of went to a Nordic country I believe is because they needed the the tundra aspect, right, I mean yeah, I mean it's called frozen. Yeah, yeah, it's in the name of the movie. I thought that that might, you know, that would work into the would work into it right there. Man. By the way, the second thing she says about the princess and the frog, yeah, it's completely wrong synopsis of that movie.

Oh that's right, that is another movie. Oh she's not a frog that turns into a quote black girl that turns back into It's not what happens in that movie. Well, I'm paraphrasing her. She said, brown girl, that's not what happens in the movie at all. Who's the frog? Then she she is a little girl where that grows up and New Orleans and then she turns into a frog. There's another there's another fella who turns into a frog. They kiss each other and they turned back into humans. They did

a frog kiss, your frog's kiss. Yeah, okay, they do, Okay, not all of them though. And that story yesterday where the girl frogs pretend to play dead, so the male frog stopped trying to, you know, do that thing. The princess and the frog. It's actually it's it's one of our favorite Disney movies too. It's a great movie. And when and here's the thing. Last time we went to Disney, Marky recently went. She came back from a wedding right last time we went. It

was a few years ago. There were two sets of girls dressed up as the princess in that movie or the one from Frozen, and it went back and forth. It wasn't just you. You saw little white girls dressed up like the princess from The Princess and the frog cultural appropriation. Yeah, oh wow, it's a very popular character now, but I mean that's completely wrong. I mean she gets it, and the girl ends in that movie ends

up, you know, living her dream. She opens up her favorite, you know, her dream restaurant that she wanted when her daddy was alive. She cooks like Cajun food, which include frog legs by the way. Probably, Yeah, I mean, does that explore it in the movie, because maybe right, all right, you're serving. I watched Ready to Go. I watched The Moana recently. Here's that one white person in that movie. I was horrified. Hor chicken. Where does it take place? The chicken

was white? I see. Maybe the chicken is supposed to be indicative of I'm not I don't know, But where's the movie like Mawi? Oh wow? Okay, So so it's set in a place where if you go back and you and you present it from a historical perspective, probably had people who were you know, more Samoan looking like white. Yeah, like you're not gonna find like you know, I mean now you will, but like you wouldn't find ol Off there. Yeah, now's because he's a snowman. Yeah.

Now, like the Mark Zuckerberg odins like ninety five percent of one of the islands. But back in the day, no Mark Zuckerberg, Right, that's so weird. People are explaining to me how frogs kiss because they have long tongues. That is gross. Boston Paul, what is wrong with you? Boston Paul sent me a picture this morning too of the the Wegmans. I'm assuming is that the one over on wake Forest or Morrisville, Well, whatever is there's a picture of the Wegmans and they have like a whole Buffalo

Bill's merch section at the North Carolina Wegmans. You get the cereal Man, the Josh Jacks. Yeah, I mean I remember that. I remember that, but they have no this is all like T shirts and mugs, koozies. I hey, We've yet to go even in there because every time we passed it were like it's so busy. We're like, no, thank you, I uhould go on the Wegmons. It's fine. I now that you know they have a Buffalo Bills section, you'll get yourself some merch. I

don't see any tables though. You're gonna have a Buffalo Bill's merch section. How do you not have folding tables. I think they do that in the parking lot. Oh, that would make more sense. It's funny because they have that, and then there's a giant pile of oranges, which I'm not sure how that mixes in. I guess unless you're making alcoholic orange related drinks, so you can jump on the flaming table. But yeah, it's a whole thing, whole section there. I had to tell you what a rotten

week in the NFL. Just boring, man, bor. I know, last night's game ended up close seventeen twenty or whatever, cowgirls use me. Cowboys won, but it wasn't exciting. I tapped out at halftime, just like looked on like a YouTube video or whatever. Fell asleep. That's the that's the Raleigh one. Boston. Paul's making the trip, all right.

I'm sure it's the same over it the other one too. I get a feeling that it's all the Wegmans, because Ross was saying that, like, if you the Bills the Wegmans and you, well, it's from New York, right, I'm assuming whoever owns it or runs it must be a Bills fan. Yeah, I've never been. Are they Is it a Buffalo Company. I know exactly where they're headquartered. There's got to be some lore or something online. I was gonna google, dude, you do do Wegman's Buffalo

bills? Oh, they got Buffalo, they got you know, there's a digs hot sauce in It's elite. It's called the Eat. Do you want that with your hobo naked hobo calendar? Oh? Speaking of hot sauce, dude, I'm telling you, man, I'm gonna tracked down some of this stuff. You gotta you gotta drink this on the stream. Now I'm passing on that. Nope, no way, come on. No, I'm good. And what I already did, I've I've proven myself. I'm not doing

it. The dude who made the Carolina Reaper. That dude has come up with a pepper that's three times as hot as the Carolina Reaper, and Ross likes to chug hot sauce on his on his stream. Yeah, I did the double shot of the Carolina Reaper hot sauce and it wasn't like some ley. You know, it's like a little little Carolina Reaper house. So it was a lot of sugar. Now, it was just like pure It was so bad, dude, the most pain I've ever been in. I thought

I was gonna die. I really did. Ed Curry, the South Carolina hot Pepper experts, says he has unveiled and it's been certified, but Guinness Book of War Old records the pepper, which is currently being referred to as pepper X, reportedly, oh this sounds nice. According to Curry, a single shot will provide intense heat and even cramps for up to three and a half hours if one was to eat an entire pepper. Quote, those cramps are horrible. I was laid out flat on a marble wall for approximately an

hour in the rain, groaning in pain. Yeah. I remember. I was sitting in a man chair in my in my living room at two o'clock in the morning after the Hayes for Sheriff Twitch tree. We shish you should check that out. It's on Twitch the Hayes for Sheriff channel. One word sounds like you're damn near suicidal. So is sitting there, dude? And I was in my chair in the dark, and I felt like an alien

was gonna pop out of my stomach and I could I was shaking. I was like, this has to be what pregnancy is like, like this has to be the pain, Like it felt so bad in my stomach. I was like something is about to pop out of myself. Cat comes down the stairs, it looks at me through through the like comes out. It looks at me like, oh my god, are you dying? And I start thinking, I'm like, I'm about to probably happening. Because you hear these

stories about cats that know when you're gonna die and they always compet. I'm like, the cat is staring at me, it knows I'm about that. It seems like the grim Reaper behind me or someone's cat vision. Oh I'm so thankful to live. I'm no way in hell I'm getting some of that. Nope, this is gonna be great. I'm gonna get you this and the hobo Naked Hobo calendar, so the last thing you see before you die naked hoboes. I mean, it's a veteran and you can't you ken't me

making fun of him? This is holy cow. I don't think that one dude's a veteran. Don't you buy the backstory in the story Curry, which runs the pucker Butt Store, appropriate, I guess, And for Mill plans on releasing yes yet ah an updated version to the world's current hottest hot sauce. So all right, we'll have to wait a little while. So that's the thing that's coming. All right, six fifty kco Day Radio program coming

up on the show. Uh you ever get the Kangaroo Insanity latest from the Middle East because obviously we got to do that and you are not gonna believe this. Apparently one of those carbon offset companies might not be on the up and up. I know, we'll explore coming up. Hang on, Thank you. Kc Is on ninety four f WPTI in the Triad and one six one FM Talk in the Triangle. Oh wow, would you look at this? Oh No, former New England Patriots defensive back in custody after his mother

was murdered last month. What is going on man with that team and murderers or alleged murderers. Yes. According to CNN, Illinois law enforcement officials have placed Sergio Brown, former undrafted free agents signed by the Patriots, in custody after being connected to the death of his mother's seventy three year old Myrtle Brown. I mean there is a pattern here right at this point it's undeniable. Right, here's a guy. The rest all of the NFL said, you

know what, I think that dude one day may murder his mother. We're not going to We're not going to give him a shot in this league. Don't want to be associated with that. Murdering your mother is frowned upon. It is. It is. Yeah, with like except for the movie like Psycho. Maybe I don't know a few exceptions. I mean, Josh Allen would never murder his mother. In fact, would you check, would you see if his mother's been let me check. He's not trying to murder.

Okay, he's jumped over her a few times. I mean she's very short. It was accidental. Wow, I'm just saying, man, that whole team needs Jesus. Well, there you go. All the news you need. All right, good keep going in everybody Happy Tuesday. It is seven oh six hour number two here on the Cacoday radio program. Uhh, we have some pushback here, and that's fine. Look I got no beat.

You guys want to you guys want to fact check the show, Say hey, I think you said something, but here's something else that contradicts it. Maybe you should look at it. I'm cool with that, you know, if you're not a jerk about it, because I'm human, I screw up, and you know, the news cycle is the news cycle. There's so

much conflicting information out there. So Boston Paul seems to think that this former Patriots cornerback who may have murdered his mother is actually a Buffalo Bills former cornerback. And while it is true that Sergio Brown did spend a stint with the Bills, I went reviewed his career. He also signed with the Colts, Jags, and Falcons over the course of his career. He was in the league, brought into the league by the Patriots, and played the most games

for them. Why would they bring someone like that into the league? Like somebody comes across their southern border, right, yes, yes, some crazy terrorists okay, and you know, stab someone to death? Who let them in the country? Biden? Right, Biden led them through the Why did the Patriots let this psychopath into the league? No vetting, Like there's no vetting, there's let anybody in the league, well not over there, right when it all costs, none of it matters? Oh, are tight ends

out murdering people? He cut three touchdowns was last Sunday. No. Look, if you have to affix where somebody spent their career is like Big Poppy Ross. You've heard of the former Twins Great Big Poppy I have, We've talked to him before in the show. Yeah, David Ortiz yeh began his career with Minnesota Twins. Therefore Minnesota Twins, Sergio Brown potential Mama Killer Patriots, plus he played the most games. Ross. You ever heard of Kansas

City Chiefs great Joe Montana? I sure have not. Oh? Really, have you heard of a Joe Montana? Yeah? Yeah, a big quarterback for one of the greatest. Yeah. Who do you play for? San Francisco forty nine ers? Wow? Okay, see how that works. How about Vikings quarterback legend Brett Farv Right, you're familiar with him? No, you're familiar with Green Bay Packer quarterback Brett Farv So own your mistakes, Boston Paul, who sent me this upset? I'm not trying to hang this around

the Colts, Jags or Falcons. Neck. He played the most for you, and you brought him into the league. You're supposed to be supposed to be the vetting one. What's wrong? I'm sorry, I'm so tired of seeing this stupid commercial on TV with Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Tom Brady. I just can't stop, you know what I mean? Yeah, yeah, that just stop. He is They're not everywhere the former Tampa Bay quarterback Tom Brady. Yep, yep, yep. There's a lot of Gronk commercials too.

This we guice he's got no reason to come back anyway. Back to the Patriots, listen, Yeah, it's a tainted organization. It's so bad. Why would you do these things? You know? I heard they scouted John Wayne Gacy. Did you hear this? I've heard that too, Yeah, I heard that. That's a thing. So and if you need a source, that both Ross and I have. So that's two sources. So journalistically you're fine, right, and it'll be on the podcast later. So that's

three. Oh wow, Okay, I can't argue with that. Uh yeah, you know, send me your send me your hate whatever. All right, you ready for this because I know what you're saying. You're saying case I want to start Miday with something insane that makes me want to check out a society. Well, it just so happens I got something for you. I'm here for you. The headline is you ready for this? Israel makes

the hormones I need, but I support Palestinian liberation. The author, Ita Segev, a large part of the trans community in the US being forced to choose. Now. I will say this, this article is from prior to what happened, but I think it encapsulates a lot of the mindset and I'd be interested to see a follow up article from Ita, a large part of the trans community in the US, being forced to choose between our life affirming

transitions and our Palestinian siblings demand for freedom. H yes, that's right. The author, identified as an Israeli trans woman who quote desperately needs Palestine to be free. Is Yeah. I got a lootle conundrum. About ten months ago, I figured out that I wanted to start hormone replacement therapy to begin my medical transition. Many reasons for the decision, but one the realization that growing up Israeli and trans in Jerusalem while being expected to become a Zionist man,

left an aftermath in my body. I needed to heal. YadA, YadA, all right, motivation, motivation, whatever, let me, let's get to the juice. Here here's the juice of the article. Teva, a word meaning nature in Hebrew, is an Israeli own pharmaceutical company and the manufacturer of the very same hormones needed for my medical transaction or transition. Excuse me, So, while the estrogen is produced by an Israeli company, I'm a supporter of BDS. That's the divess that basically take all your money out

of anything Israeli related. I was shocked to learn the only manufacturer for the drug I need was, in fact, this Israeli company. Well you're at You're at a Jerusalem pharmacy, so are you really surprised they're going to have Israeli pharmaceutical makers manufacturers and that It's all the stuff you expect. And it couples nicely, by the way, with this article I saw yesterday by author Owen Jones. So Jones is gay and writes for The Guardian, and boy,

oh boy had the hottest of takes yesterday. Let me read from the Twitter thread that really got this thing running. So basically, people were hacking on Jones because he wrote this article and he's just like, you know, down with Israel, blah blah blah, is really in the same vein as the other one. And people pointed out that Jones is gay and that may not comport with living peacefully under Hamas well, he was ready for it. He did his research and he wants you to know and this might change some

of your minds. Quote I'm being spammed with this sort of stuff. So for the record, there isn't the death penalty for homosexuality in Gaza. It's a prison sentence of up to ten years. Bad enough, but no need to exaggerate. And if three percent of Gazin's are LGBTQ, that means Israel has killed ninety LGBTQ Gosins in nine days. And by the way, it wasn't actually Hamas who introduced the law banning homosexuality in Gaza. It was the

British Empire. That's right. Same sex sexual activity has been prohibited in Gaza under the British Mandate Criminal Code since nineteen thirty six, so they follow all the other British laws there. Yeah, there does Prema Nacta coming out to wazoo there. Man, it's a big thing. So what wait, hold on, do you think you're changing. They don't actually murder you. They just put you in jail for ten years, and it's because the British one. Come on, man, But seriously, I'm still hung up on this.

I'm pretty sure the British had laws against, you know, murdering people and uh babies and the elderly on fire and all these horrific things we've seen. Surely there are British laws against those things, right following this one British law in particular. Now, to be fair, to be fair, the British were not good at following those laws themselves for a lot of years, right when it came to uh, you know, world nomination. A love of the fact. He's like, they're just following the law. Choice,

no choice, just following orders. Is that what you mean, sir? That would That's a that's a strong point you're making there. The biggest threat to LGBTQ gosins comes from the Israeli onslaught and not humas. Was there a British law against kidnapping? What a kidnapping and executing your hostages? Was there a is that in the books? Look, I am not a British I'm not a barrister or whatever they call their lawyers. I am not one.

I do not have a powdered wig or whatever they wear. So I don't know, nor am I a lawyer here in the US, But I don't know if that's your strongest opening point right there. We have to because the British said so. And just to point out what you're referring to, as you're referring to British law during the formation of really that territory of the world post World War One. You know that if you once you leave Gazi to go to the rest of Israel, it's kind of like a gay hotspot.

Do you remember all the gay tourism commercials that Israel was running for Tel Aviv. They ran a giant campaign because it caused a bit of a stir, They ran a giant campaign for gay tourism in Israel, specifically Tel Aviv as this gay resort, beach mecca. That was a whole thing. It wasn't that long ago. So I would say that other areas they're in that particular

region, they've gone in a slightly different direction. Rather than even throwing people in prison for ten days, let alone ten years, they've attempted to monetize it. So so I guess maybe you should write an article demanding that the Israelis follow the former British standard. I don't know what you're pushing for.

But between that and this trans author who's hung up on the part where the estrogen needed comes from an Israeli pharmaceutical company, but they're all about the you know, it's like the Miya Khalifa conundrum right where she's like, ah, I love Hamas, but you know, porn, and she even did porn in a semi Burca and I feel like they're going to have a problem with that. Again, not a legal expert in the area, but I feel like that would come up in conversation, all right eight eight, eight,

nine, three four seven, eight seventy four. I told you wait till you hear what Chicago's doing. We're going to get to that. And this is interesting. This is companies eliminating college degree requirements amid soaring tuition costs. I think it is a great thing. And frankly, this is exactly the kind of stuff that has long, long, been long being probably coming to universities, and they've only themselves to blame. And it's not just from a

cost perspective. Yeah, you have to have to as you watch what happened all around the country with all of the gatherings on college campuses, the insanity up at Harvard, you had to stop and ask yourself, well, what does a four year degree mean anyway in practical life skills as it pertains to entering the workforce? Now, depending on what your field of study is a lot, right, there's a lot of advanced education that's very helpful in a

lot of fields. I understand it. But when the majority of people are coming out of universities with a non technical degree and instead they're just engrossed in all of this humanity stuff, which is nothing more than political indoctrination in many cases, how useful is that to a company anyway? Do they want a bunch of people are going to come in there and every time there's a microaggression they want to go on strike. Probably not. So we'll get you the

details on that as well. Lots to get to in the last hour forty five, So stick around kc O Day Radio program. This his one o six one FM Talk in the Triangle and News Talk ninety four to five w PTI and the Triad. All right, seven twenty seven, Closer to Home, Closer to Home, We could see a Jim Jordan speaker of the house, that'd be interesting, an interesting dude, man. I did I tell

you about the first time I saw him in person. I was at it was one of the radio broadcasts that I we didn't do it this year. Sadly, the September broadcast in d C. One of the one of the guys with the organization was the organizer of this actually passed away, which is very sad. It's a great guy and he was. He was really the the organizing force there. But in one of the previous years, who was

I think it was? You know, I went over to see Ted Budd or Mark Walker whatever over at the Republican Congressional Club, right, So I go over to say hey to them, and it's weird because you're in this like you know, it's a bar setting, and all of a sudden, here comes Jim Jordan. And he's not a very big dude, but he walks at an amazing pace even when he's just in there. I guess in there to shake hands and get a drink. A lot of energy and well,

we'll give you more in a moment. Hang on smart Talk all day ninety four to five W PTI in the Triad and one L six one FM Talk in the Triangle. So obviously the schedule is subject to change, but it is expected that the US House will take up a vote today on the possibility of making Jim Jordan's Speaker of the House. There's a few holdouts though.

According to reporting here from CBS, Jim Jordans still has to convince a group of about ten to twenty Republicans who currently oppose his nomination to come over. So I don't know if they're looking for bribes or if they got some other b for what it is, but let's see here at least one source telling nabies or excuse me, CBS News that Jordan's support has grown incrementally in

recent days. However, it looks like some of the Cheese reps are upset over how Steve Scalise's bid was handled, like he didn't get enough respect there. Yeah, that whole thing was weird, man, But yeah, it is what it is. You need to get somebody in there, because I see them sitting there going, oh, well, we're gonna we're look perhaps a bi partisan solution and work with the Keem Jeffries and Nope, Nope, I tell you, North Carolina saw that game, the whole duel Speaker of

the House thing. Nope, no, nope, nop dope, And see Trump is endorsed Jordan, which of course then irritates a handful of Republicans. I don't know. They had some meeting yesterday. Are we gonna talk, We're gonna talk or we're I guess we're trying to figure out how to talk with Congressman Murphy or something. Roll send me an email yesterday. We're still firming that up though, right, all right, so we're still working on

that. Be interesting. Did they reach out They reached out to us, right, uh, correct, okay, and then they didn't get back to you when you responded, come on, guys, get you. I would have loved to have him today. So if not, we're thinking, what maybe Thursday, because we got a lieutenant governor mar Okay, well, look, there'll still be plenty to talk talk about. It is that season,

though, isn't it. We're getting closer to that season when all of a sudden, the congress folks from the beach and from parts on the very fringes of our listening area suddenly like, hey, remember me, let's come on the show. Have Hudson's people reached out yet right next week? Which is fine. Look, if you're look, if you're a member of Congress, you want to come on the show. And I don't care. If you're a Democratic Republican, I got questions for you. We'll talk to you.

I told you when I was in Minnesota, man, me and my radio buddy up there. It didn't matter whether it was Michelle Bachman or Keith Ellison, get him in there. Got questions, they got responsibilities. But yeah, what's happening up in Washington. Rep. Mike Turner, who appeared on CBS's Face the Nation, is described as a bell weather for where many House Republicans stand, saying quote, I think Jim Jordan will be an excellent speaker.

I think he'll be able to get to two seventeen. If you remember how many how many votes they take with McCarthy, it was it was not just a few, it was a lot. If Jordan is unable to cure enough support, some key skeptics and veteran Republicans are now preparing to push for a deal that would expand the ability of Patrick McHenry to move legislation on Israel

and government funding. So this is that bipartisan deal they're talking about where they don't want to make uh North Carolina Congressman McHenry the speaker, but they want to let it. They want to change rules so he can do some speaker stuff, but basically just the part where he spends your money. So that's that's Washington written all over it. Man. There are a few other names still in the hopper should the Jordan thing not work out, including, let's

see here, Tom Cole of Oklahoma at least Stephonic of New York. Oh, Tom Emmer, I know Tom. Tom is a Minnesota rep and former radio host. He hosted He literally hosted the show in the timeslot where I used to work in Minnesota for a lot of years and then ran for Congress. Ironically, Jason Lewis also hosted a show on kat ok and up in Minneapolis, though it's different calls now, and he was in Congress for a spell. So I apparently I should have ran for Congress working up in that

building. I'd be so corrupt. Man, be like, oh, why yes, I do want to go to your I do want to borrow your chalet and aspen. So hey, that bag, right, So that's something that could play out today. But exactly what it's going to look like, not one hundred percent sure. I do know this though. Do you know this of the city of Chicago, Man, those people are going out to

lose it. So Chicago is an interesting case because they actually have done polling now in Chicago, and believe it or not, as a sanctuary city, the majority of people in Chicago are not down with that, especially folks in some of the poorer sections of Chicago feel that they're being ignored. In fact,

Chicago has now stepped forward to really rub it in. Chicago has announced they will give nine thousand dollars to any migrants who show up in the city to cover their rent and to help furnish their apartments, as well as providing medical care through a seven point two million dollars deal that they struck with one of the medical firms. So how many how many they estimate up there? Eleven thousand migrants? Nine thousand? Uh? Alright, hold on, so

what is the shitty of Chicago spending here? Let me figure this out. Let's see here to do two? Do the math. I should be able to do this in my head, but it's early ninety nine million dollars ninety nine billion dollars on rent. The city of Chicago under this thing, based on the numbers they have, is just allocated nine nine million. That's just the rent. And and I guess furnishings. There's gotta be some nice furnishings right by the way, nine thousand dollars. I know Chicago's expensive, but

it ain't nine thousand dollars. Man. You can live in New York City for well under nine thousand dollars a month. I'm pretty sure this is like those hobo tents Ross. Do you remember the Hobo tenths where they're like, we're gonna get some tents for the homeless people and they're only gonna cost five thousand dollars a tent. And you're like what wow, You're like wow, what kind of tenn is that? And you see in this light it looks like a you know Coleman, right, yeah, it's a Colman nothing.

I'm not knocking on Coleman. I own Colvian, But I mean, you know, for five to ten thousand dollars right right? You pay now you pay roughly what nine thousand a month for your home for your mortgage right somewhere around there. Sure, yeah, pretty close. What are you doing with the night? Thousand? Go to the second hand start go garage sailing? When do they have They've already had it, but you know you miss the

boat. But next year when they have that big the garage sale that goes on for miles on I can't remember the highway number, but through Elkin going up to Roaring Gap, like the whole damn road is a garage sale. Boom done there you go. There's so much furniture, and who knows, you may get a piece of furniture where somebody hid some money or something in it. Or Doubloons or the guys for American Pickers will show up at your

house. He's been in nine thousand a month in Chicago, So yeah, I look, I understand why people are ticked off, but they're not ticked off for the right re They're not ticked off because they're going this is insane levels of spending. They're upset because like you could have given that money to us to waste. So there's that all right, speaking to waste, uh waste of my time last night tuning into that NFL game. You done that. Just I just want some excitement in my life in this weekend of NFL

action, and that was not it. Dude, halftime, I'm like YouTube video on. I'm falling asleep. I know you guys won, but come on, man, yeah it was well you you thought that the Chargers were gonna run away with at the beginning, so it was a little bit exciting, but it wasn't. Hey, it did enough to win. That's that's.

I didn't think anyone or I didn't think anyone deserved to win. If you know, and I will say this, it's like the Minnesota Bears game, the Minnesota and Chicago game, like every bou should have got l's you know what I'm saying something, man, Yeah, well I'll get the rest this week and bye week coming up, and then it gets then it gets tougher, but anyway, we'll take it. Right. I'm just glad you

were able to, you know, make it in. So yeah, you know, hey, I struggled, but I was actually in at work last night standing by for the cable network, so it was nice. I got able to got a little work in. I was able to watch a game while I was at work. You know, tough gig. So wait, if you're on TV and out of the corner of your eye Herbert throws a touchdown, do you stream the F bomb on the wall? How does that work? No? I don't really want to be painted with that brush.

I just kind of you know, Luckily we didn't have to go on last night because there was no severe weather, so a I didn't you know, there were none of that, and be you know, I was able to watch most of the game, actually drove home with it on my phone and then caught the end of it at home. And dude, did you see the pictures they put out of the NFL replay command center? They were flowing

around on Twitter? I did not. Okay, So when you know the office and you right where they're like, we're going to go to New York, Right, So this is a fourteen billion dollars annual revenue industry. You think that thing's going to look like Houston? Right? Vision Control? Yeah, It's like, dudes were not going to like my man cave has more screens, very underwhelming and explains a lot, but but I mean, what do you really need really one screen? And I mean most of the well,

they don't lose anyway, they don't look at it anybody. You would think they didn't. Sometimes sometimes you think they didn't though I know, all right, sorry, sorry, no, I'm not going to pound on you. You guys want it was just I wanted some excitement. This week was all around. It was it was more I had that conversation with Dad. Was really more of a defensive week. Actually, a Sunday especially a lot of let's just say, lower scoring games, so a lot more defense.

So I actually kind of like and I like the weather. It's actually pretty nice until about Friday. But I really see in the longer range seven to ten days more sunshine and more of high pressure and dry weather than anything else. Sunday today, chilly, this morning, this afternoon, mid upper sixties, near above seventy for Wednesday Thursday, and then we're going to see a front come in Friday. That's gonna be our next chance of showers week.

Low pressure is going to try to develop but drift away from us, so I think it'll take the shower chance away by Friday night. First shot at the weekend here looks pretty nice, mid upper sixties during the day, forties at night. So as I'd mentioned, I think the next seven to ten days or maybe even longer. No substantial rainfall. I'm sure everybody on the interwebs and the xes and the twitters in the face. We saw all the pictures of the snow in the mountains. Yes, there was snow in the

mountains. That's even gone away. I don't see any of that either, even with this next system coming in lately. Just some showers around, but I think they'll wait until Friday to get here. So joy, it's some beautiful weather over the next three days. You see the numbers Nielsen put out yesterday on the Chiefs Can Bears Chiefs Game four. No, I didn't. This is this is the death nail of the NFL. So Nielsen reports there

was a twelve percent uptick in female viewership. That was the you know, the the big promoted Taylor Swift and Sandy Right, all these guys are gonna be like, well when they break up, somebody's pick her up real quick please or start dating celebrities. Dude. Ah, it's it's the can you go to the movie. My wife asked me if I want to go to the Taylor Swift experience on Sunday? Oh wow, Actually, you know what thank you for bringing that up. I'm gonna use that to tease our next

story because Taylor Swift's in the news kind of for that as well. So thank you, sir. We'll talk in an hour. Appreciate it. Yep, yep, you can't get away. It's uh, it was very interesting listening to the Best Buy CEO yesterday. I'll explain coming up one six one FM Talk w PTI, two stations driving the best in talk. This is Casey Oday and Carolina's Morning News where you can't escape it, so you might

as well lean into it. That's right, Taylor Swift News. But before you turn the dial or not that anyone has dials anymore, check this out. So Best Buy CEO Corey Berry was that the most Powerful woman's Summit. Okay, but I'm by Fortune magazine and was trying to explain why some of the earnings for best Buy this earning season are have been a little soft, and she figured it out. According to Berry, funflation is to blame.

According to Barry, younger generations are more interested in experiences over tech luxuries, and that's coming at the expense of Best Buys profits. So rather than buying that giant four KTV, they'd rather shell out the same amount of money for a Tailor Swift ticket in the nosebleed section because they're kind of pricey. Funflation, Taylor Swift. Those experiences are really where people are willing to pay, said CEO Barry. Bigger ticket items and electronics are not right now where people

are interested. The use of the term funflation refers to a trend in which consumers are willing to shell out fun experience shell out for fun experiences over at home products like Best Buys, TVs and computers. I mean, yeah, look, people go out and spend their money, however they to me. To me, I feel like having something tangible when you're done. And don't get me wrong, I've paid. I've paid more money than I should to

go to shows. I remember the George Carlin show. I was so glad that I did it in retrospect because he died just a few years later. Trying to get tickets to one of his last shows. Happened to be in Denver, and he's there, and me and my roommate at the time.

We walk over to the theater and we're standing in line trying because they were sold out, but there might be some give backs and knowing kind of how it works with the promotional tickets, sometimes there's give backs at the end that didn't get meeted out and was able to get some but paid more than we should but got to see George Carlin good time. I get it. However, a four KTV is going to be there you get home. You know what I'm saying. Ross, you like your four k TV? Big fan

of that? Are you big fan of the case is the dumbest thing I've ever heard? Well, we're gonna spend you'd rather spend tickets for a Taylor Swift show? Well it doesn't have to just be that's the example. But no, I'll take the big st TV to put in my wall. All right, it'll be with me for years, which will entertain me for years. Where you family person on the street? Yeah right, so dumb? Doesn't that to be tailored? So like pick a band you like or your

wife likes, what's the what's the chick band your wife likes? Paramore? Right? Please, it's not even an issue. You take Michael Jackson Live and Bucharest or whatever. Well, no, I'm they bring back Michael Jackson from the dead for one last show. I'm still taking the TV every time they're going to watch the show on the TV with the uh because eventually they'll try to monetize it. There. Yeah, so that's fun, but that's

not the only Taylor Swift story. Apparently your security guy has made a decision. So anyway, we got another hour to go. Hang on all right, good morning everybody, and he is eight o six hour number three here on your Tuesday KCO Day radio program, or all the night was hanging out watching stupid people in the news. Like I'm not necessarily calling the CEO stupid.

She's probably right. I just don't understand this. So I mentioned there that the CEO of best Buy says that the soft, the soft earnings report is being chalked up to Taylor Swift and funflation. Basically a generation of folks who would rather spend an ungodly sum of money to go watch Taylor Swift at a concert that they could have just as easily used to buy a big ass TV. And I don't know, it just doesn't track in my brain. Don't get me wrong. You want to go to a concert, great,

I get it. A lot of concert sporting events, there's you know, other stuff for willing to pay for. But I don't know if I've ever been in a position where I'm like, do I want a big, old TV or a concert experience that i'll I was trying to think of concert experiences that I remember. For the concert experience. There's a couple that stick out. I've been to a lot of shows, obviously working in this industry,

and I love live performances, I really do. And some of my favorite concert experiences were not even necessarily the biggest, biggest shows that I've seen. Like I remember seeing Fleetwood Mac during their the Big, Big Big Reunion tour about ten years ago, with all the production and everything, and it was good. I didn't pay for the tickets, I got them for free.

Joe Cocker was amazing in concert, a great time. But I'm just Most of the concert experiences I remember not because I held my phone aloft in the air for three hours taking a video that I'll never watch again. It's because something crazy happened, like when Phil Collins walked off stage because people bought a

bunch of tickets. So that thing he tried to do where he didn't sing, he just played drums, but all the radio stations played Genesis music in an effort to sell tickets, and then got really upset when there was no Genesis music. So that was an experience, but not for the right reasons. Ross he'd been to a crap ton of comic search. Right, you want a big ass TV or you want to you want a concert experience? Tell you what I said, I will take the TV every time. Every

time it's I don't even have to think about it. What was like a legendary art. So it was like ten years ago. Brian the bad board Op gave me tickets to Billy Joel love Bill Yeah, come tod Pa or I can't ever where he was. I can't remember because I didn't go. So he gave me ticket wait, wait, hold on you the ticket. Yeah. I'm a big Billy Joel fan. Yeah, giant fan, love Billy Joel, right, love it good. Gave me the tickets. He knew it. It'said a buddy, I got you these tickets. Surprise.

I'm like, oh my god, that's great, thanks, that's amazing. The day the concert comes around and I'm like I can either go to the show, yeah, or I can take a nap. And I opted for the nap and it was a good nap. It was you gotta say this ten years later, there's there hasn't been one second of one day of my existence where I've been like, man, I wish or I should have gone

to that show. But now, but we were sending the reason we were sending you to the show is to determine who in fact started the five And now we'll never know. But it was a great Now. Oh wait, hold on, break the news. We do know it was Antifa. Okay, oh my god, Yeah, who saw that coming? So yeah, if you're gonna throw in the option of you know, Billy Joel or the TV or oh, I'm taking the TV every time every time, don't even have to think about it. So I don't know. Maybe there's maybe there's

some accuracy to what she's saying. What she's talking about is a larger thing, and you see generational shifts. And again, I'm not gonna tell Jen whatever how to spend their money. That's just the reality of things. I can judge it because we're human and that's what we do. Right. When I see somebody walking around with you know, nine inch fingernails, I'm like, what are you doing? Right? Or a neck tattoo. I'm like, huh what, h okay, all right, And if you got a

neck tattoo that's on you, it's fine. I don't get it whatever, but you know that's that's that's to be human. But if you're in the business of catering to, you know, whatever the current crop's looking for, you gotta have your finger on the pulse. Man. Things change. By the way, not the only Taylor Swift story, uh, because I know this is where you come for all your Taylor Swift stuff. Did you see Taylor Swift's bodyguard is leaving because he's gonna go fight in the Israeli Defense Force.

This dude, that's this dude? Yeah? Or you say, I mean that's very telling. This dude was like, huh, I could be beheaded and immolated or hang out with these people. He would definite take the TV. He's all He's team TV all day. Man. Now he's a form Look, former IDF guy feels the colony wants to go back to that. That's fine, but yeah, a little bit of it has to be. Like you know what, I can't stand being around these bable. I'm gonna go get shot at. But people make those decisions. I guess,

well, I don't even have to guess. I mean, we saw an NFL player decide that he was going to forego his career for a time, and then it turned out to be permanently so he could go serve in a military aspect, right. So, Yeah, but her, apparently her security guy with the uh the background there is headed back to UH to do that.

Yeah, the un the security guard who's seen in so if you see footage of her walking to and from, he's the dude who's all eyes on the crowd has gone home to rejoin the Israeli defense for US following the Hamas terrorist attack. Aaron Suisa of news outlet Israel Hayom reported the guard said he

couldn't stand by while Jews and israel were being killed in their homes. Do you think that he had to listen to Taylor swift Way in on this issue too, because you have to assume she's got an opinion, right, I don't know what it is. I don't know if I've seen anything formally from her. I'm just, you know, maybe I have a feeling. If she does have an opinion, it's not one that's based on a lot of research. But you know what, maybe I'm being totally unfair there. Maybe

I'm being one hundred percent unfair. So yeah, that is uh, that's the Taylor Swift section. And let me kind of spin this back to changing priorities this. I found this fascinating. Companies are scrapping college degree requirements as tuition costs continue to be sky high and companies are finding less value in standard, run of the mill four year degrees. I get that, you know, gone are the days the majority of people are leaving college with something that's

highly targeted and technical. Much of it is very open ended, which isn't necessarily a bad thing, right, Bachelor of Arts or some you know something you know, very open ended liberal arts degree. But a lot of it too, is also core focused on various humanities fields, which arguably, if you're Google or Walmart or IBM or Bank of America or Accenture, which are all companies listed in this article, I don't know if you know lesbian theory

degrees necessarily translate into what you're looking for. At Walmart, hundreds of corporate roles no longer require a college degree. The company says it wants to remove unnecessary barriers while putting emphasis on experience. So yeah, I mean you still have that. That's you know, that's a tough putt. You may not have the degree, which also may not have the experience, and that could

be hard. But some companies are prioritizing both, like Eccenture. Accenture says that for the first time, the majority of their entry level candidates will not be required to hold a four year college degree, putting the priority on what they call apprentice It's an apprenticeship, but not like they're paying, but recognizing that this people come into the information technology services company, they're going to do a better job over the first couple of years training these folks who have other

skill sets and have you know, survived interviews and probably are pretty sharp people maybe would have gone to college but couldn't afford it or had other priorities in life that they may be the types of employees they want, and hell, they're going to be trained really in that discipline. Plus they're not going to be running around getting microaggressed everywhere. Maybe I think that's the underlying thing here they don't really want to talk about. Some companies are just sick of that

garbage accenture. Let's see here, eighty percent company, eighty percent of the twelve hundred employees do not have four year degrees, and yet they continue to thrive. Pretty telling. IBM announced they're stripping bachelor's degree requirements for more than half of their US jobs, saying prioritization of skills over specific degrees serves the company better. Apple following suit, Google following suit. Yeah, I mean, they can say it's about, you know, people saddled with the costs

of four year degrees. But you know, the fact is there's a lot of people who didn't get a four year degree who are plenty qualified and frankly a lot smarter than some of those idiots they run around interviewing in times square. I think the country is either ninety three years old or a billion years old. God help us so I can understand that. And are you sitting

down gotta hand, get your hands on something. It's really important that you don't pass out from a surprise at this next door worry one of the world's largest carbon offset firms. All right, so these are the folks who're like, hey, if you want to, uh, you want to show out and you want to you you want to take that private jet and then tell everyone they can pound sand questioning you because you bought carbon offset credits, it

might be a scam. I know, I know. Yeah, according to New Yorker, right, so this isn't Fox News doing this, this is moonbats all around, the world's largest carbon offsetting firm may have sold environmentally worthless credits while secretly moving the money into investments from companies like Gucci, Porsche,

Nessley and others into private offshore accounts. According to literature from the company, the monies which were supposed to go to help the Cariba forest protection of Zimbabwe may instead just have ended up in offshore banking accounts and no credits were sold. That's I am shocked. I am absolutely shocked. Also, the money is supposed to go towards endangered animals. However, this is you. This

is the part where you're going to fall over. So, as part of the carbon offset, a portion was set to also help the endangered animals of this forest project in Zimbabwe, but instead the partner of the of the firm had been so poorly vetted that rather than an annual an animal rescue organization, an animal aid organization, and it came to light that they had they had inadvertently partnered with a trophy hunting organization. Oh gosh, so you went save

the whales and it's the dead. You're like, ah, you know who should save the whales our new organization, the Chinese fishing boats, right, or the Japanese whaling boats. Right, it'scot whale in it. They're probably there for the whales. Let's give them the money. How do you screw that up so bad? You're taking Al Gore's money, Gucci's money. You're gonna go save some kudu or whatever, gimbach or you know, pick your antelope of choice. Right, you think you're saving a kudu, and instead

it's some rich Dennis from Minneapolis kneeling over a carcass. Yes, that's right. The organization whose website, so if you go to the website that they listen as their partner organization is adorned with pictures of hunters kneeling over lions, leopards, hippoes, and elephants. The organization's logo is a picture of a lion as viewed through a red dot scope promoted hunting within the Cariba Project. Forest god Man, that's how little you care. That's how little you care.

That is amazing to me. And of course these companies in the same way that they were stroking checks to like black Lives Matter without Karen where the money's going. It just shows you how how little they give a crap. Oh we're helping. Look, they got a picture of a lion. It must be okay, yeah, but I mean that looks like it looks like distance metering, looks like a scope, man, right, look into that. No research done? Absolutely amazing, but hey, I'm sure they felt

better. Could you at least get an NFT of the lion? The lion alive or dead, I mean, doesn't matter. Okay, now you get the actual hide. Man, oh it's a rug. Screw an NFT, you get a rug? What is even going on? And then now the company is like, well, you know, we were very disappointed to see what our partner was doing. I can't believe people that would invest in this very real problem wouldn't do their homework. No, I mean went again shocked.

It's it's amazing, absolutely amazing man. You know the only thing that could be worse is if like they invested in furries, right, They're like, ah, yes, animal Rescue Organization here. In fact, they like to they like to gather in hotel. They're so excited, they're so excited they're partying. Oh wow, whoa, whoa. What is that species doing with that other species? Why does it have a trapdoor? What is going

on? Oh man, it's just we'll tweet this out. You gotta see this, all right, we'll send a link out at Casey on the radio. Check it out, and we'll be back keeping you connected. This is ninety four to five wpt I and the Triad and FM Talk and the Triangle. Wow, that's a o. That's a good thing, dude. You have nothing to apologize for. Ross was just telling me off the air a new new thing that the was the Haze Global Initiative, Right, that's the

parent of this thing. Oh yeah, sure, Yeah. They've launched a brand new so it's a moisturizing lotion for chickens. Right, So they have a new program for all you carbon offset folks. They're creating a variety of moisturizing booutique, you know, high end moisturizing lotions check free range chicken, well chickens out of the cage. Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, oh yeah, I wouldn't want that the organization named Ethical Animal Treatment to

uh will inviscerate genuine nature's suffering. We're working on it. Eat wings. Okay, that's that's an unfortunate acronym though if you think about it, so, like what kind of lotions like cama mill or mint or the color like sort of like spicy in nature? Oh yeah, like orangish to red. Oh okay, I guess yeah, yeah that's good. Any Italian? Uh do you have an Italian offshoot? Maybe some garlic parmesan kind of go with

the breadsticks? Yeah? And then uh, well, I'm just saying, you know, if you're gonna put put these uh these high end uh couture lotions out there for the chase, is it for all of the chicken or is it just parts of the chicken that you need to get, you know, the whole thing, the whole Yeah, the whole chicken. Oh wow, yeah, because what about we share that much? What about chickens in ages? Listen, the most important part is send me your money, yes

for the lotion for the chicken. Yeah, to the Ethical Animal Treatment will inviscerate genuine, genuine natural suffering. I think it's sounding like a great organization. So Porsche, Nestle all the rest who were literally spending money to then. Don't get me wrong, I don't want to. I don't want to hack on uh uh groups that because for all of you moon bats out there

are like I love animals. Do you want to know who spends the most on habitat restoration of organizations, especially here in the US when it comes to uh wild critters? Do you know who who who foots that bill? Sportsmen, sportsmen and women? Right, Look, you want something if you if there's something on the brink of extinction and somebody finds out it's delicious, there's gonna be a whole lot more of them. Talk to the pheasants about this.

They're not even natural, they're an evasive species here in the US. But good lord, right, running out of ducks, we got this. Like people want to hunt stuff, are also here to put their money where their mouth is to create the habitat and the access and everything. And that's that's a dury little secret. Some of these groups don't like they want to go chain their little moonbat cells to a gate. Meanwhile, organizations and hunters

and fishermen and all the rest are out there doing the heavy lift. They're paying the fees a lot of the you know, hunting fishing licenses. Where do you think it goes? They're various organizations. So yeah, in a way, this company, I'm not trash on this company that literally is offering trophy hunts there. They are probably spending a crap ton of money to maintain this forest in Zimbabwe because it does yield this opportunity, but it also benefits

obviously, uh, the the natural environment there. I know you don't want to hear it, but just the fact that that's where the money was going from a bunch of woke idiots just made my day. Man, just made my day. Fred, what's up, hey, guys, I'll do it good, good sir. I think there's a misconception about about the red dot and the lions. Oh yes, yes, red obviously obviously a uh one of those uh ointers they want to get the lion to play. That's not

a scope, so that's that. That's so it's not a scope. That is akin to somebody with a laser pointer in their living room jacking with their cat with with that line, yeah, there's there's no uh, I'm sorry, sure, how great is that story? How great is that story? And they think they're saving the planet. They're helping some guy on a hippo. Oh man, oh I just made my day, just made my day. Yeah, yeah, yeah, No, they're not radicals. They're uh

it's uh, it's a it's cat name. I mean technically they are getting rid of some carbon though, right, I mean yes, yeah, no, that hippo, that lion puts out carbon. That's a good point Ross. This is why Ross's Global Initiative has their new chicken lotion program. Yeah, which, by the way, when you buy the chicken lotion, and also it's a carbon thing too, Yeah, of course, and if we mentioned that, yeah, yeah, you'll be reducing carbon ken I should I

make donations in groups of twelve or six? Which you think would be the better? Probably twelve? Pray twelve? Yeah we take cash. Okay have you seen those places that want the donations to be five or ten? Who are these people who are trying to change the game on chicken lotion and habitat restoration or like what did wild Wings do? Or they're just like they just have a thing, but it could be a different number depending on weight or

something that's stupid. Yeah, that's how what's yours East Coast? Is that the one you go to? East Coast? Uh? Yeah, they've been running a program there for years, right with the lotions for the chicken. That's good. Ah, they're donating to that. It's wrong with people, man, Dan, what's up? Hey? How you doing? You're gonna talking about the four year degree thing? Yeah? Would you rather have somebody who's, say eighteen, that've got a general foundational education ready to work?

Or would you rather have somebody who partied for four years, got indoctrinated, is now in debt and serve as the master that is, their lender. Who's going to be a better employee? Wo's got more potential for you as an employer. Look, I get I get the rub, and I don't necessarily disagree, especially if you if you feel that you can shape somebody who has the potential to learn. But admittedly, part of this is also about

DEI stuff that people are sending me emails, and they're not wrong. This is about companies trying to say, well, we're not going to have these degrees. But what they're really saying is what Joe Biden said the other day, where uh, you know where he was like, ah, we gotta we gotta talk about people who are minorities who don't have as much education, because he said that the other day. And I think it's a little bit of what the companies are doing. But no, I'm with you, man.

I want somebod who's hungry, ready to learn, and looks like they have a good head on their shoulders. I don't need to indoctrinate them. I just need to mold them so exactly. Yeah, yeah, so I think you got a You got a real potential winner with a high school graduate rather than like say, a liberal arts major. And they can go get their liberal arts degree online. Now there's no need for the traditional university system

anymore, sir. What's your favorite chicken rescue lotion? My chicken rescue lotion is They got a place in in Derham. I don't know if I can say the name of it, but it's like a little it's Heavenly Buffalo's and they do, uh, they do this extremely hot, extremely delicious treatment to these chickens, you know, to give them a better life. Yeah, and yeah it's great. Yeah, and they like to do they prefer to bathe in a ranch or blue cheese. So I prefer them that they bathe

in blue cheese. I feel it, really, it increases the quality of the chickens life to do it that. Yeah, yeah, yeah, well you want them to be happy. So all right, Dan, I'll let you get back to saving the chickens. This is a crushing blow to the to the Hayes for share of global initiative chicken chicken lotion. Yeah, apparently that's already a thing. People at that yeahs DIBs on our Twitter account, Casey and the radio. Oh no, just showed a picture of the actual

product. So I'm making the executive decision. We are moving into the chicken body lotion business. Okay, all right, the chicken body wash. That that's my passion always, Ben, Would this be the essential oils posted there? Is that what you're I see this? Yeah, it looks a lot like Sarracha. No, no, it's a different one. You're seeing joykill fun Sucker's account. Oh I see? Oh no, no, no, I just scrolled down. Here we go, Rooster Booster pick no more cover

up chicken lotion. Okay, all right, well, look you don't have to move into an entirely different division. The future man, Listen, listen. We're in the black turtleneck here. Okay, listen. The future is chicken body wash. Where we're going. He is Steve Jobs right now. It's crazy. Oh he just just owned his daughter too soon. Yeah, okay, all right, well everything's crazy man, not raised agic. He's saying ish yeah with the weather for yeah, so talking about helping chickens by

basing them in delicious sauces. So what they want opened them out a lot, right, yeah, yeah, what they need good chicken helping weather. Yes, that's great. Yeah, the mornings are cool, the afternoons will get milder sixties yesterday, this morning's been a little cloud around the triangle that's start to go away, drift south toward to done in Fateville and Clinton and going away and beautiful day, lots of sun lit upper sixties to night in

the little mid forties. And Tomorrow and Thursday mostly sunny, beautiful outdoor days on either side of seventy degrees, depends on where you are. Friday we may have some showers, but sun should return for the weekend. All and all looks like a great run over the next five days and even into early next week because even after the showers get here Friday and it clears out for the weekend. I'm looking at the long range. I see a big area

of high pressure coming in. Beautiful weather, going to continue to help that fall foliage. Change on over. If you're not there yet, almost there. Some of the first know of the season, the Great Smoky Mountains, last couple of days. That's coming to an end also, but just some signs of the season as we head toward the middle of the month. Okay, all right, thank you sir, talk to you tomorrow. I have a good one. Okay, And Joan Donagher joins us next from Bloomberg News.

Hang on show. A show is on the iHeartRadio app. Search cacoday for the podcast on the iHeart Radio app. Alrighty eight fifty three. You're Bloomberg Update now, Joan donegher in this week, Joan, what's going on? Well, it might just be a happy holiday after all. A survey of more than forty three hundred people from Deloitte indicates we'll spend fourteen percent more

this holiday season over last year. Consumer demand has been strong. Retail sales last month rows more than twice as much as expected, up seven tenths of a percent. So the survey finds even those with household incomes of between fifty and one hundred thousand dollars plan to spend even more twenty six percent more this year. There is a group of earners who only plan to spend about two percent more this year. They are the ones dealing with the return of student

debt payments and a lack of real pay growth. Still, what they make is pretty generous, between one hundred thousand and two hundred thousand dollars a year. Maybe what we're going to spend on will be more of what we've already been spending on experiences rather than goods. That's been no I know where you're go No, no, no, no, I know where you're going. I'm sorry you do did we do this? Okay? Okay? Oh okay

okay. Best Buy's been frustrated by it, and they say, you know, their sales have been slipping because we are passing up tech devices to buy concert tickets to see Taylor Swift or Beyonce, and that is running up the price so that they're really expensive. And Bank of America is calling it all funflation, like they say, global You can't you just can't, but everybody else could, because global live music revenue top twenty five billion dollars last year,

twice what it was the year before. COVID changed the healthcare world. Now it's starting to change back. Vaccine makers and drug store chains that made a lot of money because they were offering COVID tests and rapid tests, well, now the number of people getting COVID shots is falling, so a lot of these drug stores are seeing it in their results. Makers of at home rapid tests some of them have filed for bankruptcy. Others have collapsed completely.

Companies that made masks and other protective equipment have shut down. Though the virus has not gone away, hospitalizations from it were the highest they had been in six months last month. In September, Big Bank CEO David Solomon has decided he's sticking with his day job. The Golden Sax CEO last year decided that

he no longer will play DJ at high profile events. He had played Chicago's Lollapalooza music festival in July of last year case and had been involved in an investigation after playing a set at a charity event in the New York Sampton's and that was during the pandemic. So he's gonna just stick to banking. Think, get Taylor Swift to do it, huh. Get hur in there and she can rise. You can open a vaccine company too, why not? And she can make the money that she could put in the big bank.

So we're it's a closed circle right there. I'm I'm sorry. Look, I've been in some concerts. I love, had a great time at Joan. I'll take a four K TV over that concert ticket all day. You know what I'm saying. I know what you're saying. All right, all right, thank you much. I appreciate it. Thanks there, Joan Doneager working Taylor Swift into the report once again. I knew it was coming breaking news. I've been inspired by Ross's chicken lotion program, and I've started my

own uh for pork and beef. It's bores and beef, uh beyond quotas. So this is uh, this is great. You see where you look into the future. I have some news. So it turns out we're gonna mop them. They have their own lotion. Turns out some mustard based, some vinegar base, some what what turns out I bought all the shares and you're out. Why why are you going and taking a hostile takeover. We're just trying to help the pan Hey, it's just a charity for the earth

and the children. Then you're out. I don't know, it sounds like something else. Pack up your boxes and please leave. Oh man too soon? All right, real quick, Chris, what's up? Hey, good morning, Casey. Regarding the chicken lotion, First of all, is it edible? And do you put it on the part where you choke the chicken. The other side of that is this is a Bible idea. We can

eat all the carbon producing animals and save the planet. I'm just saying, there's you know what, people put their heads together and come up with solutions. They they find them. So I don't know, there's it's going to be very safe to ingest, sir, unless you're a coward and can't do hot stuff like the now hottest pepper in the world, which is three times hotter than the Carolina Reaper that the guy just made. So I guess you can go do that, all right, So much stupidity on the show today.

Oh all right, well, Ross, I'm really pumped over your uh your animal protection thing. There you are guys are doing. That's that's amazing, man. And some guys send me an email and he's right. He said, Hey, any reports by reports on the turkey leg stuff with cheese, eggs and tape. No, it's been a it's been a big disappointment, sir. I've got nothing. So if you're going eat it and report back to us and maybe, you know, maybe get a little of Ross's chicken lotion on there, couldn't hurt
