The Casey of Day Radio program phone number eight eight eight nine three four seven eight seven four. Oh, man, I gotta tell you, dude, I was trying to think in the world of celebrity death trifectas, when there has been three or I guess one trifecta with three individuals who I really get

to miss. Doesn't mean I'm not sad about other celebrity deaths, doesn't mean I'm able to doesn't mean I'm not able to put aside any of the political nonsense and appreciate, you know, their ability to act or sing or whatever it is. But man, you want to get three together that I genuinely like. We're off to that start now. Obviously you're fully aware that Carl Weathers passed away over the weekend. We talked about that yesterday. But I

was really surprised to see this country music legend. In my opinion, Toby Keith is dead, passing away and you go, wow, he was young, wasn't he, Yeah, in his early sixties and it looks to be stomach cancer. Unfortunately, according to a statement issued Jess by his manager or family member something to say, somebody in his orbit, the singer passed away Monday nights. Surrounded by family. Yeah, just says according to official statement,

it surrounded by family. He fought the fight with grace and courage. Please respect the privacy of his family at the time. At this time stomach cancer, saying. According to the statement, the cancer was first revealed in twenty twenty one, Keith had been undergoing chemo radiation surgery. Eventually, he says in the statement, or is quoted in the statement, is saying that he got to the point where I was comfortable with whatever happened. I had

my brain wrapped around it. He also praised his wife for being the best nurse as he underwent treatment. Well, let's see here, it was no surprise. In June of last year, Keith told The Oklahoman he'd spent six months undergoing chemotherapy, radiation and surgery. If all you know about Toby Keith, by the way, is just his songs, great, I mean, obviously he had the really edited he had. You know what he had. Here's what I liked about Toby Keith. I cut my teeth. The era

of country music. I cut my teeth is what I kind of referred to as the Chattahoochie era right where you had a definitive flavor he to songs at that in that era, right there, A lot less sad songs, a lot less you still had. You're gonna have your country romantic songs, right, don't get me wrong. But you know, I'm trying to think of who was you know, he's killing it at that time. Lone Star, Remember Lone Star back in the day. All the women loved the Lone Star.

But you know, for me, give me some classic Tim McGraw, Alan Jackson and Toby Keith for that matter, should have been a cowboy. And I got turned on to Keith because I was turned on. We had a local country music artist where I grew up. In fact, he was a height He was an assistant high school rodeo coach for a while, and I went to school with his kids, by the name of Chris LaDou and him and and Keith had a strong relationship and did songs together. So and

Ludo actually passed It was liver cancer for him, really very young. So that is very sad to read this morning. Ross. You're not a country music guy, but obviously you knew about Toby Keith. Yeah, and uh, courtesy the Red Right and Red White and Blue is the first thing you mentioned when we were talking about it before the show, and it was Keith

was He was also a big pushback guy. If you ever watched there's a couple documentaries that I've seen or biographies that I've seen, and he basically went in and he explained to the industry how it was going to be. And a Bonschum didn't like this dude, And I like him because he rolled his own way. He didn't care the way that they wanted to do it. He just want to put out music and and make people happy. And I'd say he did that. How many how many of you were able to do

a tailgate without Red Solo Cup for a while. It doesn't, it can't happen. You're have a tailgate, you gotta have the Red Solo Cup song, No brainer, man. So then I have to win. Well, who's gonna the third? Because now I'm nervous because I see where this thing's kind of trending, Like I don't know of anyone who or I can't think of anyone in the news who's you know, been reported to be on the CUSP or anything. But can't take Carl Weathers and Toby keith Man, and

then again, who's the who's the third? Try to think who the the really old conservative leaning celebrities are? Who is it? Right? I'm sorry, my brain's who did you get ross? You mentioned one? Right? But we were getting started. I was gonna look up how old? Oh John Voyd? Yeah, I was trying to look up how old he was, and then I got distracted by something. Uh the tedious What a tedious exercise? Man? But it's just such sad news. He's eighty five.

I don't know how many people, do you? How many of the younger generations? Probably when they're trashing on him, because as somebody will post a quote, we'll remember he's Angelina Jolie's father. Don't know what is this? It's funny I typing John Voyd. Do you know what the first Google search result is? Are John Voight and Christopher walkin related? Okay? How does

is that a thing that people think? I guess it is if it's number If it's right up there at the top number one search result, there's that many people coming to figure out if John Voyd and Christopher Walking are related. There's an explainer. Many people think they look alike. I don't know about that. Baby to Biden, is that what you mean? Because let me tell you that dude is confusing some folks here he is. Yesterday little fled

guilty, you know. Right right right after I was elected, I went to what they call a G seven meeting, all the NATO theaters it was. It was in the South, and I sat down and I said, America is back. And nater On from Germany, I mean, from France looked at me and said, uh said you know, why why how long are you back for? Okay? All right? Uh and then just a little, a little. Then there's a whole conversation you're about to have. So just to be clear, Uh, Biden is referencing, and he corrects

himself. I know some people are like I thought, Mitterrand from Germany and the quickly he pivots over to France. I'm fine with that, right, just you're talking, you're on the flat. You hear me? Right? I couldn't remember John Voyd ten minutes after Ross said it out loud. It's fine, It's it's fine. How However, however, oh no, no, no, no, hold on, hold on, emailers, I'm gonna

get to that. But let me jump back and forth real quick. All right, so so, so he's explaining this this conversation he had in South Wales, which is where this this G I think it was a G six, right, did one of the names? There was no rush or something. I can't remember, but anyway, I remember them all standing on the on the causeway there near all the resorts. And then the had a bunch of big letters. I remember all the photo ops. I can't remember why

they stuck out, but something was probably weird. But all right, so he is now he's not just saying, dude, was there? Initially he said Germany, but you know that's it's France in this case. And but he didn't just say that. He's now detailing an entire conversation. Let's listen to it, and then just a couple of things you need to know. And I looked at him. You hear people talking to and the Chancellor of Germany said, oh, we're back to Germany. What would you say,

mister President, if you picked up the paper tomorrow in London Times. In the London Times said a thousand people break through the House of Commons, break down the doors. Two bobbies are killed in order to stop the election of the Prime minister. What would you say? I never thought about it from that perspective. What would we say if that happened in another democracy around the world? Okay, well, I mean that's tough stuff. He's challenged him

to think about there. How would we react if in this this scenario the bunch of bobbies were killed? And what what? What would we do it? Again? He corrected himself the first time, talking about meet around and saying we're initially germanys at France, and then he went directly and called him

the Chancellor of Germany. But again he was president of France. Now some of you are probably going, I'm sorry the who right, because in your mind you know you got McCrone and bunga bunga guy, but maybe you don't remember. And the reason you wouldn't remember is perhaps because he was the French president, not the German chancellor. And he died in nineteen ninety six. Dude died when I was in high school. He was French president from eighty

one to ninety five. Again, died a year after leaving office. So what the hell who would have been in uh, let's see the German chancellor. Would that still have been what's her bucket probably right at that time, and the French president would be Macron at that time. I can't remember if it was Angela or not, but the fact is it wasn't that dude.

So like again, nothing's wrong right, everything's everything's fine, And what's what's even again more amusing is he's sitting here and he's using it even in his fake scenario to miss Reppers at January sixth, because he can't help himself. I honestly, and I mean that, I don't even think he thinks he's lying, because I mean he thought he had a whole conversation. He did't just call a dude out in an in an audience. He had a conversation

with him and then just relate it. Now, as some of you have pointed out, and you've kind of gotten to where I was wanting to go with this first segment of the Toby Keith stuff and all of that, we have another story, another story, sadly that involves cancer. Don't wish it upon anybody, and that's King Charles Man. Yesterday it was announced that King Charles was diagnosed with cancer. During this like he had an operator he had at large prostate. It was having it handled, you remember, and it

was during that time that a quote separate concern was noted. Subsequent diagnostic tests have identified a form of cancer. You had members of the royal family, including Prince Harry, jumping jumping jets to get back to the UK. So I don't know from a time line standpoint what that means, but just think about that, how many years? How many years has this dude been waiting

to be king? I mean, and I understand that there's a certain level of waiting, right because it is a line of secession, but it's the longest ever and it's not even close. And then finally, finally, And I'm not saying that he sat there and rejoiced in the death of his mother. I'm just pointing out that finally you get the crown, you get more

staff to abuse. Judging by most of the reports that we've seen in the video of him flipping out over things like how it pens handed to him and his toothpaste demands, he loses his mind if there's not exactly one inch of toothpaste, and has quote been known to measure you get all that, you finally got all you're you're you're the king, and and look, the guy's

got an ego a mile wide on him. He's demonstrated it over the years, all of those things I just told you about, just the just the way he conducts himself, and so you know that that that had to be something where he's just like, you know, if you just put me in charge everything, I'm gonna make everything amazing. Because that's that's the ideology this guy has, even though he's just the he's just the accent at al Gore. But British people are listening, and you don't like this, call the

show. Uh, don't accost me with a drink like one of your brethren did one time. That's crazy. I just don't want him to be on that three list. So I'm rooting for him. I don't want him sullying that. Let's see, May has today commenced a schedule of regular events, during which time he's been advised by doctors to postpone public facing duties. That's not good. That's that's like the Joe Biden lid thing right there. So I don't know, and coupled with the flights and statements like that, what

exactly that means? Charles ascended the throne in September of twenty twenty two. Has it been that long? I guess it's been that long. Holy crap. And Mark in the first anniversary of her Late Majesty's death in my session, we recall this is going back to well, I'm not going to read all these statements. They're just audio and stuff that you've heard already. So yeah, I don't know, pretty dark, dismal opening segment. They're very

sad about Toby Keith, you know, the King Charles News. We'll see what comes of that, and that's how we'll kick off our Tuesday phone number eight eight eight nine three four seven eight seven four. We'll be back in just a few minutes. Kco Day Radio program. This is damn what do you this? The Biden administration reportedly pressured Amazon to censor books related to cod COVID nineteen. I love it. I just I mean, I don't love

this. This is absolutely dystopian. But it's like it's the you know, what is the biggest accusation that Democrat politicians are running around accusing, especially at the state level, Republicans about what are they screaming bloody murder about? What are they posting doctored screenshots of old Nazi book burnings. Right, oh, the kids remember that, Remember that chick who threw her threw her dad under the bus over book bands? A yeah, just a seck here you grab.

I know, I got this damn thing from so last week we did that with the check who's like dad, My dad's a monster even though he feeds me and I look healthy and I probably have a car and spending money and all of that. Yes, So it was this whole, this whole narrative that Republicans are out, they're they're they're banning books, and she feels so passionately she's not inspired by anybody because yeah here teachers, they don't even

talk politics. And she's up there not just saying that she this is how she feels and ignoring, I guess relating to other family members, but straight up had jobbing her father over this issue. Here it is school board student two. Yeah, of course, why would that line next to each other? Here we go, okay, all right, just jump in the wayback machine with me. This is this is from the twenty ninth, so about

a week ago we played this audio. I'm a student at Chapin High school in my senior year, and I have attended schools in the Chapin cluster since kindergarten. This is the first District five board meeting i've attended, though I did watch the public participation portion of the meeting that took place on January eighth. I was inspired to come and speak today by my English teachers in my

high school years. I have come to know most of the teachers in the department and found that they are a brilliant and kind group of people who truly do act in the interest of every student. I hold the utmost respect for them, and they have taught me. As they have taught me so much in academics, extracurriculars, and lifelong ethics. I'm incapable of fully understand distress and responsibility felt by teachers, parents, and the members of this board.

I have no years of experience being an educator. I have no college degree. I'm not a parent. I'm barely even an adult. I'm just a high school student. I'm here to make a point about the dangerous consequences of book banning in public education, but I first want to share some of my backgrounds so that you may get an idea of why this is so important to me? All right, So there she is. She's super excited about book banning, which again it's not book banning, it's literally figuring out which books

are appropriate for which libraries. And a kid's library, you know, one within a school, be it an elementary school, all the way up to high school. There's gonna there's gonna be some items you put in there and there's some you don't. This is not anything new, and yet it's being portrayed as as the banning of the books. And as people point out, banning of the books, WHI be making it so they can't be sold or accessed anywhere, and not just in this one individual thing. There's a reason

that if I go to KFC, I can't order a Hamburger. That's not where that thing is. I get, well, you know, I mean the crispy chicken sandwich, which is fine. I like those, But you get the drift. And she's so bought into this that she goes on to say, this, unfortunate to have both of my parents present and involved in my everyday life. They support me, care for me, and I love

a comfortable life. I love both of my parents dearly. But tonight, I would like to focus on my father and then committantly detrimental effect he has had on my life. He's a conservative, Republican and a Christian. I mean, that was that was some of the coldest stuff. And I know we talked about this, But what's funny is what she is flipping out, what she's selling her family down the road for, even though who knows,

maybe she doesn't realize she's being influenced, maybe she's dumb. She doesn't strike me as that. She strikes me as somebody who at the very least has has had a lot of benefit in life, and a lot of that seems to be born from her family, and yes, even from her educators. Seems well spoken, but out of her damn mind. But the thing that she's there willing to throw her father, who's cared for all these years, and she probably expects to pay for her schooling under the bus over is far

more prevalent in this story that emerged yesterday. And yet I'm sure she will ignore the administration pressured Amazon, the largest seller of books in America. I don't know if it's the world. So this is the source of the source, This is it Barnes and Noble eats your heart. That's things are different,

the number one seller of books. Going back to early twenty twenty one, documents, emails, and even some testimony has arisen that cited concerns that the material contained, in this case, vaccine COVID nineteen vaccine related periodicals, they didn't jive with what the administration thought contained quote propaganda and misinformation. Once again, the same piece of garbage who should be literally never near an apparatus

of power. Again, these mid level idiots who worked within the administration, who were the ones willing to go mafioso's style at these companies if they didn't comply, is again here in the what's being referred to as the Amazon files. Let me get some quotes here. Who can we talk about? Who can we talk to about the high level of propaganda, misinformation and disinformation of Amazon? Andy Slavit is this guy's name, by the way, senior advisor

for COVID nineteen. This was the guy going in. He's in the emails, the Twitter files, he's in the Facebook stuff saying you do not want to go toe to toe with the Biden administration. Let's see he goes on to write in this email quote, if you search for vaccines under books, I see what comes up, Slavit wrote in a message. I haven't looked beyond that, but if that's what's on the surface, it's very concerning.

Amazon officials initially balked at performing a what's known as manual intervention to remove certain book titles from appearing, arguing that that would be too visible and lead to further scrutiny. Screw Amazon, By the way, the argument there is here, let me make it very concise. So the administration comes to your the largest books sell and they're like, ah, I can't you're selling these books. We don't agree with you need to stop that, do something about it.

Your response should have been you commy. You didn't have to add comedy. Just go it the first part. That's fine, they'll get the message. Amazon's response should have been that, or in the longer version, wait, so you want us to ban books, let me call. Let me call, and then you know, insert a newsperson. That's the response you should have had. Your concern should not have been limited to but then they might see what we're doing because that implies that you agree, which I believe

that you do. We will not be doing a manual intervention today. An email between Amazon executives read the team feels very strongly it's too visible and will further compound the Hairy Sally narrative, which is quote getting the Fox News treatment

today and won't fix the problem because of customer behavior. What is a by the way, what the problem in this case that they're referring to his customer behavior is that customers may want to buy these books, and if Amazon doesn't sell them to them, they will then search them out elsewhere and acquire them that way. And again, this is seemingly Amazon's only concerns on this front. However, they did have a plan, and it sounds a whole lot

like what we've seen on social media. The email states that a tweak to the books seller's website that would readdirect more customers searching keywords such as CDC and and and vaccines and all of that and and by the way, Google's all in on this. If you type anything having to do with COVID, you type anything having to do with any hot button medical issue, they will send you to the CDC first, even if you explicitly search for a different organization,

go try it. That's what they wanted them to do. So they and they and so if you've sought, if you were searching for books on a topic, even if you put the book title in, which would be you know the way that it will work. Here. The compromise that they seem to be mulling over was that they would tweak the search results. They would in essence, shadow band the books without banning the books. I'm telling you, the first moonbat who came up with shadow banning, they must have

had They must have loved that individual, because that's all. That's all a lot of this because there's things they wanted to do, but they realized if they did do them and people got wind of them, it wouldn't be good for their business. There's no ideological belief there. And you want to be motivated by capitalism, fine, but you're being motivated on the other side,

not by capitalism, So you can't have it both ways. The White House will probably ask why we don't tag the content like Facebook or Twitter if we're not taking it down. This is an option being explored, but we don't want to disclose to avoid boxing in. So, yes, that would have also required them to use tags, which are not uncommon. People are used to tags. You search for them on Twitter, there's hashtags, all of

that, But they weren't talking about necessarily using them public facing. They were essentially where if you were in the know and you had tags, they could apply them behind the scenes, or if it's government stuff, they would know what the tags are, and you know, they would let the government know how the algorithm worked so that when they put their information up they would then

get without Amazon having to move anything. Once it's programmed, they would get the boost for The email goes on, is the admin asking us to remove books? Are they more concerned about search results? Another email discussing the upcoming negative media story on COVID nineteen vaccine books being sold by Amazon because right now the admin has turned to their media partners. Hey, we wanted them to do this, and look at that. You could still go on Amazon.

You can buy a book that isn't one hundred percent in lockstep with what the CDC says, get them and the media of course ran out to get are you selling these books? Amazon implemented a do not promote order and created a list of books. That's how book bands Go Man got to have a list, gotta know which one said to throw on the on the fire. As a reminder, we did enable doing this part of the email. We did do not promote for anti vaxx books whose primary purpose is to persuade readers that

vaccines are unsafe or ineffective. Or you could look at the disclosures on vaccines, because like any other medicine out there, they have listed side effects and as as we've spoken to over the years, like when we've talked to doctor Campbell and all the rest, all medication aspirin does and it's it's up to the pay and it's up to medical folks to sit there and go, all right, well, for you, I see more benefit based on the data that we have of you taking this drug or this shot or whatever it is,

whereas for a different patient they feel that the risks outweigh the potential benefits. That's doctoring one oh one. And I'm not even a damn doctor. I think I'm not a ross. Am I a doctor? Did I get a medical degree? I don't feel like you just you even entertained that for a moment. You just immediately said no, is it because I'm not wearing a lab coat. I don't know what's going on. I'm not a doctor, but that's the conversation I've always had, that's what they're actively trying to

avoid here. Amazon cave to the pressure to censor speech and did it, and did so at the behest of the same people running around convincing eighteen year olds that their storied life, their wonderful life that they even themselves say that they have, has to be burned down, and people verbally attacked in the form of her own father over the issue that is not even remotely what the

same as what they're actually doing. It's just maddening. And this is the kind of stuff too that I just feel that girl will never see this, or the very least never consider this and go, maybe I was wrong, Maybe this is a whole lot worse. Maybe I can disagree with both. I don't know, but I feel like that will not be part of the conversation. Just my just my two cents, all right, eight eight eight nine three four seven eight seven four coming up on the show, let's see

here. Oh yeah, you got to talk impeachment stuff. Apparently there's a little bit of a problem. And what's the most romantic city he thinks the most romantic city, not not just North Carolina, but in the United States, most romantic city in the country. Think about that, because you're wrong, whatever whatever's in your brain, you're wrong. I know you're wrong.

I promise you're wrong. Hang on for that next glad to have you long kicking off our number two phone number eight eight eight nine three four seven eight seven four. So, uh yeah, a lot of people, a lot of people laying out the uh what they think are the most romantic cities in America. And there's some there's some good suggestions here right at Las Vegas. That's if that's for you, that's you, I guess maybe, I mean who is it your spouse or a hooker? I don't I mean, I

don't know, excuse me, a stripper with a side hustle. I that's fine, But you know, a lot of it comes down to end of memories. I think for a lot of people, if you're you know, you got married and spent your honeymoon and I don't know wherever it is, you probably associate that. So that's fine. I understand that there's going to be diverging ideas. In fact, before I give you the big reveal. Let's see what some of your suggestions other ones are myrtle beach. I can't

tell if you're serious, sir. That's by Ashville. Yeah, okay, I saw some people think Ashville. Tell the hobos surround you where you're just trying to get a bloody mary downtown and throw cigarettes at the car. That actually that happened to me. And by the way, let me just let me correct this because I I I'm going to make a judgment call here because the emailer appears to be a woman. If you mean the majestic beauty, fine, if you mean dragging some poor guy through that giant mansion so they

can see the outfits from the Dalton Abbey show. No, I have been victimized like that. Rose. Romantic has has to be Fayetteville. Everyone's pregnant or has an STD here. Thank you for listening for fable, sir. I'm sorry that's happening to you. Love is in the air, hey man. Everybody to each their own. No. According to event right, the most romantic city in America is a Baltimore. Baltimore, and who hasn't been tempted When scouring the deals on the travel sites to find them. You know,

maybe you got a three day weekend coming up. You want to put a little spice back in your marriage, so you yeah, let's get us a nice little roomate. We'll drop the kids over it, you know, Nana and pop Pops and and uh, we'll head to Baltimore. Wouldn't you divorce your spouse, Maybe not divorce them, but somebody's like, somebody's sleeping in the other room. You don't blame me, try it. Get yourself,

book yourself a little staycation or vak. I guess if you don't live in Baltimore, get a little vacation, go get around the water front, so you know, you'll probably might survive. They do have a casino there, but that Inner Harbor or whatever it is, Yeah, they got that's

where all the hotels and restaurants that are least murdery are. But yeah, I go, maybe go catch a game at the Orioles Park there or something once we get that fired back up, since unfortunately their football season is is Ova and they do share parking lot, so the two stadiums right next to each other. I went to an Orioles game that was fine, but I did not there was nothing that felt romantic about any of my visits to Baltimore, which I think it's been two so well, or maybe you're one of

those weird couples that's in the crime scenes. Look, everybody's got a thing, and if that's your thing, or big fan of the wire, which of course, if you've seen the wire would probably point now Baltimore. Baltimore's actual nickname is charm City, so I don't know, maybe they're maybe they were utilizing that to say that it indicates romance. But to be fair, Phillies, brotherly love. Nearly nine thousand violent crimes, or one of the

highest rates, affect Baltimore's residents each and every year. In twenty twenty three, the city reported two hundred and sixty two homicides, which was a win. By the way, that was a win. It's the first time they've had under three hundred homicide since twenty fourteen. Although if you take the areas directly surrounding Baltimore or any of the communities there, they saw upticks. So

it's not so much less people are getting murdered. It's just like, let's say you wanted to murder somebody today and you're in Raleigh or you're in Winston Salem and you're like, ah, meet me in mebin and you still murdered it. You still murdered them. But yeah, that is the uh most romantic city. So you know, book that booked that vacation, and when your significant other gets home today, be like, honey, yeah, you know, we've been talking about what to get away. We did travel a

little during the holidays, but that was holiday travel and was stressful. And now we're back into this and let's let's go to Baltimore for the weekend. Let me know which of the couches you're sleeping on after you get done with that. Okay, all right, very good, all right? Eight eight eight nine three four seven eight seven four. That's that's some of the dumbest stuff. Let me give you some good news because I can't just dwell in the negative. I can't. Actually I'm very good at it. But we're

gonna try to get away from this ross. You have Pirates of the Caribbean fan, right, you like those movies. I like those movies. Yeah, they're great, Yeah, yeah, I love Jack Sparrow. Yeah. Oh, anything else though, I mean you like the whole movies too, right, like the like the black Water Adventure. Right, So if you had most of those things, that'd be good right in a follow up like Water and oh wow, okay, well you get none of that and Jack

Sparrow's out. So yeah, what was a rumor is apparently true, but

true in a different way. There it was. There was a report that came out last year saying that, And this was right around the time when Johnny Depp and Amber Heard were doing all the court stuff that producers at Walt Disney, because again they're the ones making great decisions, We're going to move forward with a Pirates to the Caribbean six And the reports at the time said that the lead would no longer be Johnny Depp and instead would be replaced by

Margot Robbie from the Barbie movie obviously and the person who just murdered Batman spoiler no, from Suicide Squad, but to me, you shall always be from Wolf of Wall Street. Look it up anyway, Johnny Depp's Jack Sparrow is out. However, the new lead actor in this case actress will not be Margo Robbie, and instead they will be moving forward it will be an all female Pirates of the Caribbean and let's see here do io ed Berry is this

woman's name io ao ao ed A Berry. I don't know who will take on the role of Ann, who will supposedly be the replacement to Jack Sparrow. And again it'll it'll be all it'll be all female pirates of the Caribbean. So, but they still have ships and stuff, so you know, the ocean will still be there. I'm sure that there will be you know, pirate themed clothing and stuff. Probably be some you know, some red coats and a in schooners whatever patrolling the patrolling the sea's but yeah, Disney

said they're gonna go ahead and do this thing. And who's the producer. It's actually pretty it's Bruckheimer, Yes, Jerry Bruckheimer. And it's Bruckheimer confirmed that work on Pirates the Caribbean six uh is uh is moving forward. All right, I feel like we we should probably we want to help move ross. You excited by the way, Yeah, you're pretty. Yeah, No, I'm out. You're wait hold on, hold on. You haven't even seen the trailer. Yeah, I don't care. You don't even listen.

If there's no Jack Sparrow, there's no pirates, Well, what rolling uh Keith uh Keith Richards. I don't know if he's gonna be repried. No, if it's all women, he's probably not in there. So but no, you're right, people come to that movie to see Jack Sparrow. That's the point of this. Even when a couple of the movies kind of got weird, it's still that was That's what sold tickets, that's what put butts in seats, that's after That's why, after the initial trilogy you were even

able to soft roll out these other movies. And like, I don't know if people could name the other movies, they probably watched them, but they still made a gazillion dollars. The question becomes, what do you name this thing is? And and how can we help because I I feel like we could probably help come up with names. Let's see, what were the Yeah you the Curse of the Black Pearl, dead Man's Chest. Oh, that

one's got parody written all over it. At World's End. On Stranger Tides and Dead Men Toe, no tales or the official names of the Pirates movies. Thus far, it is not stated what the name here may be. Yeah, we can work on that. Somebody wrote, is that what's it rated? I see what you're as you're going here, sir, And there

is already one of those movies. There is a really really really like expensive Pirates of the Caribbean adult film that's that was floating around out there, and I'm floating around out there, but exists out there because I think it was like it was the most money they ever spent on a movie, or one of those movies. Anyway. I have not viewed it, and I think it's I think it's mostly women, but I have a feeling that there are some male cast members in that one. So but you'll have to look that

up. Yes, so Ocean's eight. Yes, yes, just yes. And we already explained on the show that this is this is this is what we do now you just because it's just one more slice in the Hey, let's screw with everything you love. You go in, you find you find something that people like, and then this is how I just want to teach

you how to be a Hollywood producer and make billions. Ready, go in, find something that people like, and then like you're like, you're you know, some sort of philosophical genius suggested the movie, Ah, what if we redid the movie, but only with and then insert some sort of group tethered together by an immutable characteristic. We'll only do it with black actors, we'll only do it with women, We'll only do it with lgbt Q members.

That's that's it. That's how you do these things. And it works for Ghostbusters and well it doesn't work, but it gets done in all of these instances. So why wouldn't Why would the Pirates movie be any different? I don't think I could think of a movie where they couldn't do this, even to their own detriment, and wouldn't because they it's incomprehensible that they could be wrong when you got all this DEI stuff baked into the cake there,

especially over at Disney. And it's funny because Disney just made an announcement that perfectly jives with Cartman's character in the South Park pander verse episode put a woman in what does it? Put a chick in there and make her gay? Right? Is that what he keeps That's what he keeps saying. It's throughout the entire episode. And if you don't think that there is going to be probably that component in there, then come on, And we already told you

that Ocean's Eight should have been a two minute movie. You get nothing but smoke shows in there, and they have to have to put this whole plot together when in reality, it's just a couple of dudes gardening. And I don't know, man, I don't know how I feel about Salma Hayek and some of the others, but I feel like she probably could have convinced him to let her in there. But no, I'm the monster. All right, seven twenty casey Oda Radio program. I'll tell you who you know how

you're We're never going to get away from this stuff. A little problem in San Francisco, a low performing Bay Area elementary school saw its student achievement dip even further after taking some extraordinary actions in the in the face of their bad scores. So the kindergarten, which had been flailing when it comes to, you know, basic arithmetic and reading scores, decided that the way that they were going to tackle this at Glassbrook Elementary School was to implement a creative new

program. That's their words, creative new program that some critics have dubbed as woke kindergarten. Now why have they dubbed it that way? Well, I have a clue, and the clue might have something to do with the individual who is uh, who's running the Woke Kindergarten. Let me just give you a little just a little sniff you want to here's a little sniff. Yes, everyone, the rumors are true. I am anti Israel. I am

pro Palestine. This is the founder of the Woke Kindergarten program. And this is posted on the company's social accounts and not her he they their own. I don't know the pronouns here, and I am one hundred percent ten toes down anti Israel. I believe Israel has no right to exist. The United States has no right to exist. I believe Hold on, hold on,

hold on, We're going to hold it right there. You you believe that the United States, the country in which you've created this fake scam business that is going to enrich you to the tune of two hundred and fifty thousand dollars, which is what she was paid or he or they or whatever was paid. You don't think that, you don't think that that country should exist,

because like, where else are you gonna pull this grift? We'll get you the rest of that audio, because it just gets worse in details of this story, which oh man, they just can't figure out how it didn't work out, And we'll do it coming up next. Hang on, quick runndown of where we've been, Where we're going. First, remote most romantic city

in America is apparently Baltimore. So Valentine's Day coming up with that special person away on the romantic trip of their dreams, head to Baltimore, home of a just one of the most comically corrupt A series of politicians from the mayor to the prosecutor, was quickly expelled. Remember the bear when they rioting, It's like, does give them room to riot? It's fine. Meanwhile, every CBS and Dollar store rounds like and we're dead. Was that was?

That was a whole thing. So we got that. We're gonna the details, the details of this abomination. Group think border bill slash Israel slash Ukraine slash probably a few other little Easter eggs in there. Is should be a non starter. And there's there's some things getting the getting I think the the the most amount of information I see people seizing on are like, well, one we just we just found out in Ukraine they were stealing like well they

steal like forty million dollars. They just they just found that, and that's that's just one of the things they just found. And then you know, with some of the other funding that's out there, you know, you've had monies that have made their way to various groups that literally about ten percent of their employees. They're like, yeah, yeah, we should that thing that happened in Israel where they went and murdered all those people, NA, that

was cool. So you got that angle, But then you also have this angle where we're going to sit there and say that up to five thousand border people illegally crossing the border apprehended or asylum seekers a day, five thousand is perfectly acceptable a day up to one point five million, and that's kind of that's kind of where that's the window of where they want to be for total

immigration. But if that number approaches one point eight then there's some things that would reportedly kick in to take some of the decision making out of the hands of whoever the president is and you know, kicking into the perpetuity that is

Congress. I'll tell you one thing that's really chilling in there and people are not paying attention to is they it renders all things border related the purview of the court based of the District Court based out of Washington, d C. Which if if you want, if if you wanna you want a big government, take that the Republicans can do no right and Democrats can do no wrong.

That's the court you want to run stuff through, and more loopholes in ways that many of these quote automatic things will never kick in, and you're paying for it. And we as I understand it right now, Senator budd Is against it. Uh Tillis has till has taking an official position as he just pussy footed around as of yesterday he was people, I guess we're assuming he's gonna vote for it, and it's it's it's awful and every every I

say it, every tidy, every one of these people. How do you how do you have a Senator Langford in Ohio or excuse me and Oklahoma putting this stuff forward? What a dead Republican could get elected in that state? And yet he's the one pushing this stuff forward? How is this stuff? Oh late, hold on all right? Somebody else shares well maybe I don't

know, maybe thinks it's good or he shares my frustration. All right, Mark Walker calling the show, and again, I just want to remind you candidate's out there when you said send me your insessant emails, or you sit there and I'm seeing all of your staffers start to follow me on social media, so then later they can pretend they were always followers. I see you try to pitch their stuff. Y'all could call the show. I don't have to red carpet it for you. If you want to weigh in on a

topic that we're talking about, you can call the show. I know it's like a gazillion different people to email me every day. I'm not scheduling your stuff. Call the show. You call like a caller like Mark's doing right now. All right, anyway, Mark, what's up? Hey, Casey? How you doing today? I'm not good and I'm not and anybody should be not good sitting there reading that garbage, realizing that all of these failsafes and things are going to kick in. Your colleagues or former colleague, they'll

never allow that stuff to kick in. This is just enshrining this way of doing business that's destroying this country. Yeah, ago, let me give you a little bit of the backstory. I think we're now starting to see, once we got texts over the last forty eight hours, just how corrupt this is. Two points here, one, don't ever, ever, ever trust Chuck Schumer and the Democrats. They do not negotiate in good faith. Harry Reid didn't Itcy Pelosi didn't. You would think at some point Republicans would learn

this. But the person who I lay the most blame is the majority of the Minority leader, Mitch McConnell. McConnell was the one that commissioned Langford. I'm gonna giving him a pass, but he said going Togo ship, which up Schumer, see what we can get done here. Now McConnell's really reading the tea leaves and he's trying to throw Langford completely under the bus. An interesting dynamic is that Mike Lee, who's been the most vocal and a little

I guess sidebar here. I'm glad to have his endorsement in this congressional race. But Mike Lee is the one from day one smelt the rat. Now, the interesting part of this is that there's about ten or eleven members that stay in one home right off the C Street, and they get together every Tuesday evening at seven pm, for about a twenty to thirty minute they'll have

a devotion and then they'll break up in two different groups for dinner. Well, Senator Mike Lee and James Langford are are two of the tenor eleven members. I'm sorry, James Lee. I don't care if Mitch McConnell told James Langford to go do the crime. He did it, Okay, he didn't know. Look, I'm not giving him. I'm not giving him a pass. What I'm saying is that Mitch McConnell needs to be deserve irving of the

ire as well, not just Langford. I'm not disagreeing with you on the Langford side, but Mitch McConnell, who orchestrated or mastermind this in a way to try to up upstage Trump on some of the border issues, obviously failed miserably. I'm just saying, as we talk about this and hold Langford responsible, Mitch mcconaughll should not be off the hook either. Oh no, that's

fine, I'm we need to I don't know. I was gonna say that throw them in prison, but that sounds too early similar to what the Democrats are doing, and I don't necessarily mean it, but they shouldn't be in charge of stuff. How the hell, how the hell is uh, how the hell is any Republican willing to sign off on this stuff. Who's explained to me where the money's coming in that's getting these guys to do this?

Who's bribing these well? Well, well agoin it's gracious, I mean the it's not just a special interest group, it's it's it's trying to get favored with the press, with the media, who these guys are always assassins. The press are never going to like you, but the pressure up there is just to get a good word about you. And it's not just the special

interest it's how you're portrayed in the public arena. Thank God that there are people like Senator Mike Lee who does not get filtered or does not allow his comments or his fight to be filtered through media, through press, through special interest. You won't get as much money in his re election next time. But the people of Utah they know the difference between Keess Mitt Romney and Mike

Lee. So I'm glad that we have some warriors there. I know we put all of Congress sometimes in one big botch, but there are some they're willing to take a stand and willing to be independent agents and voice for the people as opposed to a special interest. This is this is Republicans helping to load a murderer's rounds. You know what I'm saying is it's so visible. This is this part where you know, because people go We've talked about on the show, and they go, oh, well, they want to get

them in and they want to get them registered to vote. By the way, that there are things in this that are very much on that pathway that have to do more with work permits and things like that. But but people fail to recognize, except I know the Republicans do that. This is also about district packing, because you don't need people to be citizens to save the

districts that California and other Blue states are getting ready to lose. You just need only fill them with bodies, and and preferably bodies that don't vote, so you don't even have to worry about what they think. And Republicans know this, and they're and they're they're they're cool with this. It's insane to me, it is insane. But let me let me give you one silver lining here, and what's turning on the Democrats, and this is what's scaring

the the entire bid administration. For many years the Democrats have have have created dependent classes, uh in and even try to buy off communities with goods, with services, with a lot of just free items. What has happened in these big blue cities. They are driving a lot of this dependent class, if you will, out for the illegals, and it has literally backfired in some of these areas that now all these goods and free services, they're not

going to these people that have they've bought their vote off for decades. They're now going to the illegals, obviously, as you said, with the ultimate goal of some kind of amnesty waving where they can vote as well. But right now it is not going well Chicago, New York, other places like this, And I think that's what has really scared the Democrat leadership this administration and realizing they've got to at least talk about the issues, whether they do

something about it or not. When it comes to border security, right, but it's not sustaining. It's one because here's the deal. If I am a member of the bribery class, right and my vote's been for sale for years based on free stuff, and I see my free stuff going to others.

I may in one or two election cycles vote for whoever I thought gave my free stuff to the wrong person, But inevitably, if they vote for that person, and they the ideology of that individual should be that there shouldn't be so much free stuff, then this thing just the pendulum just swings on this, and so that's all right. I'm sorry, just real quick last response to that. I mean, they're not going to like it one term because they're not going to get the free stuff, or at least there maybe

they will. I don't know. No, No, we've got we've got some big issues long term. But in the short term, I think this is going to be a winning issue because it's the right thing to do. Stay focused on border security, and Republicans will win because it's exact place where we should be focused in this country. Right But it's Republicans that are getting us here, So maybe maybe purge them. Do you think Tillis should be

reelected? Oh that's a great look for I'm looking at this. I've got to focus on my own election right now, but I want him to come out strong and get this border b. We'll find out here in the next few hours. All right, we'll get those folks unnotice. All right, Mark, thanks for calling in this morning. Sorry to take my anger out on you, but you stepped in the line of fires, so you get what you've got, no problem, all right, all right, all right,

and raced Agic we'll take her anger out on him. What do you do with the weather man? I need summer, give us some summer. Wow this and you know it's I'm gonna call it false I guess I'll call it false spring, because yeah, we can call it that. A little bit. Fifties next few days. I think upper fifties to low sixties by Thursday and Friday. Chilly in the mornings, but I mean these numbers are really close to our actually above average by a couple degrees, especially by the

sixty degree weather getting here late in the week and the weekend. Still think we might be near seventy, especially for the Triangle as we get into Saturday, but most of us well into the sixties. The problem is in the afternoon there might be a little rain. Same thing on Sunday, chances of rain mid sixties even early next week. In the sixties, I do think though, after that, sometime next week to maybe some chillier, colder coming

back in and mid month and beyond. It's certainly not going to be in the sixties and seventies, at least that's the way the longer trend. They're trending that way beyond seven to ten days. So joy White got it. Great weather next few days, especially weekend looks a little damp, but at least it's mild. Do you hear the most? Did you see the most romantic city in America? What do you think it is? What do you think the most romantic city in America is? Las Vegas? Baltimore? Really?

Yeah? Odd? Why it's Baltimore that I think Baltimore When I think about romance, is there? Do they have a reason? Just a couple stuff? And you know it brings the couple together when one of you has got a you know, it's sucking chest wound from the for the attempted bugging. So I guess maybe that's what they mean, ye too, Yeah, all right, you remember how much you love that person? Thank you,

bok my trip to Baltimore. If you are a Republican Canada for or I don't care what it is and you are not in you and your mind could never fathom a situation in which an incumbent, even in an office that yes, it's extremely expensive to get in there, but if you don't have the decency of standards to sit there and go that person is not representing us, and uh, and be vocal about it. Why not? Why would I? Why would a Jim Langford not in Oklahoma not be ousted out of there

where they get what are they gonna do? Elect a Democrat in Oklahoma? So same goes for here. We'll see what Slenderman does when we know thus far we don't know. Uh. Like I said, Bud, Budd has said no, which should be the easy answer. But not holding my breath all right, I was telling you about this Bay Area teacher or excuse me, you should say teacher. That's probably giving her too much credit. Grifter, who have this two hundred and fifty thousand dollars contract with Glassbrook Elementary to

pay for a woke kindergarten program. The school, which was struggling, became eligible for these funds, read that as your money and immediately implemented the new woke word of the day, words like strike ceasefire protests, you name it, all sorts of just insane stuff, but never really touched on the whole you know, math and science and things like that. And it was all spearheaded by a single individual who posted this not on their personal social media,

but rather on their the company's social media. So there's no question what you're getting when you signed up for this. Yes, everyone, the rumors are true. I am anti Israel, I am pro Palestine, and I am one hundred ten toes down anti Israel. I believe Israel has no right to exist. I believe the United States has no right to exist. I believe every settler colony who has committed genocide against native peoples, against indigenous people,

has no right to exist. So literally, where you do business upon land, where you do you know your business is located, and you live, and yet you'll take that two hundred and fifty thousand from taxpayers, a scumbag. I believe in a free Palestine from the river to the sea. That's genocide, by the way, that is what's super ironic. That literally is what that means. And you were just anti So one day Palestine will be free. Is this news to anybody white supremacy destroys for the sake of destruction.

Abolition destroys what I thought it was to take over all the lands of the world. Wasn't that just the accusation like twenty seconds ago, for the sake of creation. We are not the same. I have an unwavering respect for children, and I'm waivering love and care and compassion. I don't want you near children. Children. And two I just can't. I just can rosst. The kudos to you too that lived that vein on your forehead, look like when you were dubbing that in and you didn't have any aneurysm,

So kudos. Good for you. I mean, believe it or not. It is the shocking part, believe it or not, that that program not only didn't do anything to improve math and science and reading scores, but they actually went down again. Shocking, absolutely shocking. Our phone number eight eight eight nine three four seven eight seven four as we get things rolling here this morning, some sad news on the cancer front. No not King Charles. That is one of the stories. And I'm sure you know some people are

sad over that. But from a personal standpoint for me, the one that got me this morning was finding out that Toby Keith died. Loved me some Toby Keith, and I mentioned this before. The thing the thing I liked about Toby Keith is the era of country music and I I started radio and country munia. I started at fourteen fifty a m KBBS in Buffalo, Wyoming, and I was I was a punks snot nos fifteen year old and what

a gig man. Go in there and you have that You have this radio station that's been around for you know, since the night I think nineteen thirties or forties they went on the air, and they have all this stuff. So like the you know, the the library that I had at the ready of records and you know, CDs and a tracks and really you know, stuff on reel to reel as you know, a kid who was sitting in there running a board for about three hours in the evening, three four hours

doing weather here, playing spots. You know, I had all that time to dig through there too, and it was absolutely eye opening. But the era of modern country music at that time was I've called it the Chattahoochee era, and it was just this energy, this a bunch of fun songs to listen to and It doesn't mean you don't have some of the you know, the more romantic stuff that is the hallmark of country music. We had it back then. George Strait was killing it on that Frank was killing it on

both fronts at that time. Still still Alan Jackson Indian Outlaw? Could you do Indian Outlaw? Now? I don't know what you could do Indian Outlaw? And Toby keith Man and I don't know of a tailgate that I've been to in the last I don't know, probably fifteen years or however long that song's been out where Red Solo Cup I want to talk about me wasn't in there. It was just it was attitude, It was energy. It was

everything that I loved about country music when I first got into it. That I feel that, you know, sometimes tends to be missy with modern and I love that there's a resurgent, a resurgence. I love that for all the trash that we talk on award shows, that there was one of those reminiscent events that people used to tune in for because they wanted to see it with you know, with a fast car, with Chapmin and Combs up there. And I loved me some Luke Combs. Although I was in that deli.

It was funny. I was in the Delhi south of the Greensboro radio station. I think the name escapes me right A Capras. I was in Capras Delhi for those I love getting the sandwiches down there when I'm in the Greensboro market. And I went in there and the lady asked she could take my picture, and I thought she was tayd. I thought she wanted it because she thought does she listen to the radio station And you could tell she was nervously asking, and that very rarely happens. But I talked to her,

and sometimes the voice gives it away. No, she thought I was Luke Combs, and I realized my beard's getting too long, and I don't Maybe I don't need this sandwich, but I love that energy, you know Chris Stapleton. But Toby keith Man, he just transcended all of that. You listen to his songs and feel good courtesy of the Red, White and

Blue Angry American. How great was that? Sadly, he was diagnosed with stomach cancer back in twenty twenty one, made public the battle in twenty twenty two, and according to the official statement past peacefully surrounded by family and friends Monday night. So what a loss there? And then and then you go then and you got the King Charles thing where you have all the royal family Russian back there. So I don't I don't know how bad that is.

I don't wish that upon anybody, but it's there is there's there's deep irony to that if you just you know, if you just step back and and because like the whole narrative was how long he waited to ascend to the throne due to the fact that his mother was just she looked like she was going to live forever. So those stories this morning the Toby Keith won. Admittedly

that hit hard. Man. I missed that, dude, And I would encourage you if if you haven't seen some of the behind the scenes stuff with Toby Keith talking about obviously struggles he's had in his life, substance stuff, but really his attitude when it came to dealing with the powers that be within

the country music industry. That same attitude that he he pumped into his songs permeat it right, Oh you don't like me, I'm gonna go out and record this album and it's gonna have five number ones on it, you're gonna be begging me to sign with you? Was he does it? Except I think it had six, right, or not six number ones, but six top tens or something that charted. I mean, yeah, that's that's the

attitude that too often we find it. You know, people have the ability to put it into the you know, the art that they create, but it doesn't necessarily speak to who they are. They're kind of pandering. I don't. I don't think Keith was pandering at all. I love that part of it. So we got that that story there, and it sucks that I have to I've had to do that story this morning, but you know,

prayers for his family, man, I had to be difficult. Also, we're talking, we were talking about this the quote border Bill, which no, nope, nope, nope, nope, And yet, for whatever reason, you seem to have Republicans on board with this five minutes after reading it. You should hate the fact that anything having to do with immigration it could not be heard in a court, the jurisdiction of the actual states that sit on the actual border have no bearing, and instead it has to be

handled within the Washington d C. District Court. How would you yield that in negotiations? And we got Woke kindergarten two hundred and fifty thousand dollars to some moonbat who hates this country, hates everybody and you know, hates the Jews, hates white folk, and colonialism, which either thinks was done to seize great power or just for kicks. I guess I don't know. That's

the way she kind of puts it. And you know, one of the greatest advertisements I saw, cordy'angelos said this one of the thank you for the school choice advertising, which yeah, absolutely so yes, Yeah, it's been one of those mornings, one of those mornings when I want to do fun or stuff, but unfortunately there's just a there's a whole lot of things there. All right, I'm gonna I'll try to deviate slightly. Have you seen

the Chilean all women's SWAT competitor competitive team. So I didn't know this. I guess I didn't realize this, but actually I guess I did, but I didn't realize how grand, grandiose it was. But once I realized it was, this is what's kind of weird. Uae that's hosting this thing, and then you realize what looks like they spent a billion dollars to do it.

So, uh, they have a competition where you know, top SWAT teams can come compete in a series of challenges and incidents and obstacles and and all of that, and that's being hosted over in the United Arab Emirates right now. And the country of Chile was super duper excited because the it's not a men's division or women's division. It's just you're the SWAT team, show

up and show us what a team can do. And there is all of this big pomp and circumstance and press releases because the country of Chile was was they put together an all female swat team so that they could make a point about how wope they were. So they sent the all female swat team there. And by the way, I'm just guessing, but I have to assume that if you go into you know, wherever the locker room is for these it just it just reeks of testosterone and and you know, masculine energy,

which is understandable. But I also know very capable female police officers, you know, swat capacity all right, I'll wait and see what happens. Then I watched the video, which, by the way, we're tweeting a link to it. It didn't go well. Okay, So here's the first obstacle,

which is just the zip line. You've seen it on that what was that show wipe out or you know, maybe at a kid's park, and it's the thing where it's you grab the two handles, you know, and you hold and then you slide across using the momentum the inertia created by your body to propel yourself to the other side. But you kind of have to do it one at a time, and they decide five at a time's better. So anyway, they're all in the water and then it just gets worse

from there. So zero hostages were saved that day. Zero hostages. And then they're fishing something out of the water and I'm like, somebody drop an ear ring in there? What is that? So uh? They then pivoted to press releases like his history was made as the all women's spat team competed. Yeah, kind of, like I think I think I could hit that little thing. It isn't the big red balls. That thing look like ross.

Did you ever watch Wipeout at all? Do you want? You know, I have to talk about those big rubber balls they had to bounce across, like, oh yeah, I just remembered it right now when you mentioned that it's a great show. Yeah. Joy, But they had But they also had one of those little slide across zipline things too. I've done one of those before. Yes, I was just gonna say you and I could

do them. So when I was working in Salt Lake City, I was working on the radio station there and they took us to like a team building event on a I don't know what the base was, but it was a military base and we had like the zipline, a repel down walls, all that kind of stuff. The repelling down the wall, like backwards with your back to the to the ground. Very terrifying. Really, I love Oh no, I was like, no, I was into climbing for a while,

so repelling is just part and partial. And don't like that guy going viral. I I would clip in, but that's a whole other video. Well that, Yeah, it was terrifying. I was dating a girl at the time that I pretty sure wanted to murder me. Yeah, said she was like you know, she she had to be like support system, you know what I mean, Like so yeah, blay, yeah, she's unbelay as they say, yes, I'm like you, you'd so let me drop and die, Like, dude, I used to do not I feel comfy?

Did you try to like butter up on the way You're like, I know we've been having some problems, but you just look so pretty today, right, Please don't drop me. Please don't drop me at all, dude. When I mentioned I was into rock climbing, so I worked at the I worked up one uh winter I worked. It was during the winter at the Breckinridge Recreation Center. This is that year after school where I'm like, I could live in Breckenridge and then I'm like, oh, I don't have

any money, i gotta move. But I worked there, And the reason I worked there is because you got a free ski pass and it was really easy work. I work basically certified people to be able to climb on the indoor climbing wall there, so they had to demonstrate to me they knew how to tie the knot, properly, connect the gear, just a couple of really vital things. But as part of the certification. I would shimmey my butt a little ways up the wall with them on blat and then I would

drop. I would let go and I would do it in an area where I would drop a little and there was some big hand holds I could catch on to. But the point was if they missed the ballet, then they weren't getting certified to be able to climb alone. They had to climb with an instructor present, which was much more expensive. So he wanted to be able to certify. And I got to tell you, of everyone whoever dropped

me, the vast majority were we're women. And I think, and I don't know what it was if they inherently not realizing that they wouldn't have to carry the full weight to my body weight because of the way that that works. And I just just be looking at him, like, should I have said something nicer to you? What's on? But you you had somebody want to straight up murder you. So that had to be nerve wracking, dude. But like that stuff like you that seems doable. Those red balls,

I don't think I could get over those. Every time I watch somebody, it's just like, all right. They had a new plan calculated to it. This is none of those things. This is this is a very simple So this isn't like American Ninja Warrior. This is not No. I've always wanted to try that to this show, and it's say, but you see these clips of guys that do it, and they're super confident, and they like failing the very first thing, like the simple steps going up to the

beam or whatever it is. Yeah, that'd be me. Well, because you don't, you know, you have like how slippery are those red balls? I don't know that you don't probably incredibly right and and you know so to some extent, you're sitting there and you're kind of delving into the unknown. This is not that that's an obstacle that, to your point, is a pretty common thing. The only thing missing from that video, other than the music I pretended was over it because I didn't have that is Arley Army

screaming at him to get off their course. That's the only that would have been. That's sad, I'm sad he's gone. That would have been a great get right anyone who starts screwing up as much as this team was. It's just him screaming, Uh, yeah, if God wanted you over there, he'd a miracled you over I believe it's the line that army uses, well it actually he uses. I can't say exactly what he said, but

it would have been pretty perfect in that situation. Man, and I have to assume the prizes for the SWAT is what chewing tobacco and creatine or something. I mean, you look at the other teams. That's that's they got a little more upper body strength going on there. And I don't want to hack on him. I mean, the fact is, like those five women probably storm through the door and take me right, there's five of them,

and uh yeah, a little more tactical. But man, if I know that, the only thing I gotta do in Chile to avoid the SWAT team kicking in I'm one of these drug cartels is to put his zipline or to my front door. It's terrible. It's like Kevin Kevin McAllister and home alone with the treehouse. Yes, the wetpand is trying to get across dope, not gonna happen. You're being thwarted by an eleven year old. What are you gonna do? Can you imagine the coming to service, no knock warrant.

They're like, oh my gosh, he's gotta he's gonna ten foot zipline, all right, back to base, break open your door. They're like, the floor is lava. What the it? Meanwhile, you're just sitting over there running your drug empire. You're like, I'm untouchable. I I am untouchable. Oh man, all right, so go go look at that video if you want. And by the way, and I sorry, I know it's coming anybody. I'm not hacking on all women. I'm not. I promise I'm not. But you have to admit that that was not a

good effort. And if you're mad, why don't you show up and do something about it. I'll be on the other side of the zip line. Come on, I'll be waiting, speaking of all right, I bet I was gonna make that's not a fair transition. I'm gonna police myself. Or if you want to, you know, pretend that you're good at it. Maybe you can get a hold of the new thirty five hundred dollars Apple Vision

pros taking the YouTube reviewer stuff by storm. Except apparently a bunch of the people who shelled out thirty five hundred dollars for what are not even technically considered VR. Are very upset, and we'll explain to you why coming up. Hang on, o, man, what a kick in the well? Do you know what? Cause I I get it. I you know, I'm not gonna go spend thirty five hundred dollars for I gonna spend thirty five hundred dollars on these things, period. But like what, it's kind of a

jerk move, man. All right. So if you don't know, Apple has released their Vision Pro, which is, you know, their first iteration of and they don't call it VR. They call it something else, and I'm not sure what the delineation is, but for all practical purposes, it looks VR. You you know, you can see the video of what people see like a lot of the VR stuff, and and look, there's a

certain coolness fact. I love gadgets, man, I got I got more crap just sitting in boxes of gadgets so that I thought were gonna be the the the greatest thing ever, because that's just that's just how I am, That's how a lot of people are. But thirty five hundred bucks, man, you bet it's better be something you're gonna be using. So I've some reviews all of that, But a funny thing happened. An entire new segment of customers has come forward and they are very upset over what they refer to

as their new thirty five hundred dollars chastity built. So the Vision Pro does

not provide immersive explicit content. So unlike so many Apple products you know that have had much more thorough lockdowns, especially lockdowns from a native browser perspective, that's fully functional here kind of so if you want to do if you want a web browse, you can do it, but you can only do it in the two D way, Whereas with other headsets such as the Oculuses and many others, not only do they allow you, if possible, to convert

various other types of content or or take advantage of their three D options, it's it's done automatically. So basically, there's a lot of apps out there, like I give you an example, like you can go you can go YouTube theater and on YouTube they have three hundred and sixty degree videos. So if you throw on like a like an oculus, you can you can go on the YouTube and it's on the native app, go on the YouTube app

and search three sixty degree videos and you're there. There's a there's an amazing program called Wander and I've I've i've I've burned a whole day on this thing, just nerding out on it. So in Wander, you go all around the world and there are drop points all over the world, in just about anywhere you can think of. And when you drop there, it's like it's like you're in street View for Google, but it's three D and it's all

around you. So like if you want to go stand in the middle of you know, the middle of the square they're in Vatican, Vatican City. You can stand there and just turn yourself around and see, you know, see the various elements there. You want to go to Red Square in China, you can or excuse me, Red Square in Moscow you can go stare at the ah what do they call it, the turnip domes or whatever whatever.

But also you can go to just about any website, adult website, big one and even customized ones, and they have virtual reality adult material, so you're in the room kind of and that is what a certain segment of people were willing to show the thirty five hundred dollars. Apple has made it so it won't work, and they've always they've always policed stuff, wanting to when it comes to that, to really distance any of their functionality with it.

Why. It's why when you go to the app store there's not a bunch of adult stuff. When you go to the Apple Store to buy movies, you can't buy any of that stuff. It just hasn't existed in this world. However, it was undeniable excuse me, that people are going to have that expectation. So now there's like full scale revolt here over not being able to access adult material. I don't know why I find that so funny,

but I mean mostly because it had to be foreseeable. But also there's something to be said for people going out there, you know, not hiding their identity and they're like starting whole you know, get Apple forums on Reddit and talking about customer lawsuits and stuff. Yes, so why are we in court today? Well, I wanted to watch porn, but I wanted it to be three D and I paid by thirty five hundred dollars, so they

didn't say nothing. Now Apple will tell you, I guess, although I don't know this is an official statement, will tell you that it is. It's not that they disallowed it, it's that the the the engine I guess that they used to TURT to render things into three sixty or even one hundred and eighty degree virtual reality, so it doesn't work the same way with their

software. But also app developers are saying they were not notified any of any of this, hence the reason no apps exist, and they also don't think they would necessarily be approved in the Apple Store. Oh there you go. I guess if that's if that's something you care about. That is a part and parcel of the story this morning. All right, eight eight eight nine three four seven eight seven four. Dude, I hope they'd do this.

This would be amazing. We mentioned yesterday on the show that for the second year in a row, Joe Biden would not be doing the halftime interview with the super Bowl because he's very busy talking to former dead presidents of France or something or whatever he's up to. That was the thing that happened yesterday, and the Trump campaign announced that they would be willing to do the interview and that it would quote be ratings gold and he's not wrong. He's not wrong

at all. If you stuck Donald Trump there to do an interview in the middle, Oh, man, can you imagine if he did the interview and he's sitting in like eagles pass or something, so just in the background, you just have pandemonium border pandemonium as your backdrop. Oh, that'd be even better. Now, there's no way in hell CBS will take him up on this. President Trump's campaign has extended then offered to CBS News for an interview.

In this case, he said he'd be willing to do it before even if they wanted to not have it as part of the halftime, saying, quote, I'll be happy to replace him, and it would be absolute ratings gold and thus far, I think CBS is just like, Noah, We're good. So lord knows what they'll fill it with. Probably just more commercials. All right, eight forty four, let's get rays stagic from the Weather

Channel. You standing by? Oh see you here? All right, my man, dude, I don't know you're in the country music right, Oh yeah, yeah. Toby keith Man, Yeah, I let terrible Toby keith love me too. Me to a lot of you know, real fun parties with some of the some of those some of those songs anyway, you know not but you say, if I haven't been to a tailgate in the last ten to fifteen years where Red Solo Cup or I Want to Talk About Me

wasn't somewhere in the playlist, Red Solo Cup had to be there. Yeah, it had to be ended, you know, out of the pool by parties. He was always in the playlist. You know. There's a couple of the you know, the rogue ones, like you know, every dog has its day. Gosh, there's a couple on that one album. I don't know if you got the what is it the bus songs or something.

They're a little well. One of those first songs was one of my favorites because one of my favorite country music artists was the guy whose kids I went to school with, Chris LaDue Chrysalde where I live, yep. And he did the should Have Been a Cowboy with Toby Keith as a version of that song, and that really, I'm like, this is great. He also did Copenhagen with him, Yes, realize, yeah so Copenhag well Garth did it with him too, Yeah, person, Yeah, I think I told

you, But Crystal. He was one about the first CD ever bought was a Crystal Dude c D. Yeah. So yeah, he was great, and yeah, I just I was kind of I wasn't shocked, but you know I admired really his patriotism too. And he didn't care what anybody thought. No, he just read what he wanted to do. People are like song is mean, he's like kiss my Well then he wrote exactly lyrics, so exactly. But yeah, yeah, and just yeah, all in all, just said, just a great person will be messed. I mean he'll

be He'll still be on the playlist though. Who's going to be the third though, Carl Weathers and Toby Keith. Yeah that's right, maybe the King Crazy all right anyway, anybody, Yeah, well, a lot of positive thoughts. Let's just make it. Oh yeah, okay, you know. Weatherwise, really not much going on next few days. It's all about temperatures as we'll get it well into the fifties over the next few days and eventually

maybe some seventy degree weathers. So a little bit fifties today tomorrow, sunshine, overnight lows up twenties, low thirties. The numbers are really where we should be this time of year, could sneak into the upper fifties and spots Thursday Friday, we'll see a little bit more cloudy in the chance at least some rain, but in the sixties to maybe seventy degrees over the upcoming weekend.

I don't think a washout for the weekend. So moll fine tune and get a little bit more detail on the forecast in the coming days here, but until about Friday, lots of sunshine around me were friday'll be cloudy and mild, and it'll stay dry, I will say, though still hinting. The guidance is hinting at the the Arctic Ara is going to come south back into the lower forty eight about mid months. So how far south, Well that is tb D. So I don't think winter is over just yet,

and I don't think anybody thought it was. Get a positive thoughts. Thanks for that, all right, Thank you, sir, appreciate it. Okay, coming up, we'll chat with Jeff Bellinger. Oh is that I was at Sam Page on the FI all right, we'll Sheriff Page from Brockenham County on the border Stow. Oh yeah, bet he's got some thoughts we'll chat with him as well. Coming up, Hang on your Bloomberg Update now with Jeff Bellinger, Jeff, What's happening, Elcotborn and Casey. We started the

week with a losing session yesterday. Futures, though, are pointing a little bit higher ahead of the Tuesday session. S and P futures up seven, NASDAK futures are up thirty nine, the Dow futures are up eighteen. Big Tech has considered the continued the wave of layoffs that started in twenty twenty three layoffs. Dot Fyi says about thirty two thousand technology workers have lost their jobs just since the start of twenty twenty four. A few customer service snags have

turned up since Apple's Vision Pro headset went on sale. Losing the headset passcodes major headache. Apple says users who forget the code have to take the device to an Apple store or mail it back to the company for a reset in order to get it working again, and the reset erases all of the content.

Airline passengers could be in for a rough few years. More than half of the senior airline and ear executives surveyed by the travel software company Amadeus say the number of canceled and delayed flights is likely to remain high in the coming years. Labor shortages are a major issue. After the massive job cuts during

the pandemic, there's now a shortage of experienced workers. It's expected a record number of American adults sixty eight million people will lay down a bet on the Super Bowl, and the American Gaming Association is predicting more than twenty three billion dollars will be bet on the game. Applebee's making another one thousand of its date Night passes available. The first batch of the limited edition two hundred dollars passes sold out within a minute last month. The passes are good for thirty

dollars off on fifty two dinners for two. They're good for one year and kc apples, Apple told USA. Applebee's told USA Today that anyone who wants one of the new passes has to register for a random drawing. Those who are selected will be notified via email on Valentine's Day. Casey, well, that's romantic, that's like you. They just named Baltimore the most romantic city in the US, so that I can go to Baltimore to the Apple Beans. Doesn't that sound nice. Yeah, they like the crab cakes, I

guess. Okay, all right, appreciate it. Okay, take care. Oh man, that's how you get divorced. Right, Oh what you got for Valentine's We're going to go to Baltimore to the Applebee's. It's going to be great. All right. So this Sheriff Sam Page Colin, and also are you still your Lieutenant governor Canada? It's going to be a very clear and disclosure here. How you doing? How you doing? I'm doing good.

I just got back from DC last night and with the National Sheriffs, and we had our border security meeting on Sunday, and then of course Mike Johnson came in and gave a briefing yesterday. Nothing new. And then of course what I understand recently with the news come out that the border bills are not going anywhere. And you know, I've been working on this project for about fourteen years for to sign up. First made my first trip to Arizona and I said, then, if you know we don't secure our borders,

every sheriff in America is going to become a border sheriff. We're there, and what I'm concerned. What I'm concerned about now is that is our national security here? And if I can, if I can say this is we had a briefing from the Israeli representatives and a video showing the Hamas attack. Now, how that ties in is that our border. Over eight hundred thousand people have come to our borders we don't even know they are have come into

our country. And you know, we know over one hundred and fifty countries represented. But those persons that come into our country that we don't know about. It's not the if of nine to eleven comes again, it's when. And that's what concerns me as a public safety professional is you know, when are we going to wake up? When is our Congress going to work together

to put together a bill that protects American American people. You know, it's interesting you and I got to know each other because of the fair event that we would do every Yurope in d C. And you know, you get a list and it's not just sheriff page and it's not just I can't remember the sheriff's name from just down there on the Arizona border that's always there, but it's it's folks from everywhere. There were sheriffs from from this upper you

know, Pacific Northwest. There's sheriffs from Montana. I saw, I think one year I talked to a guy from Montana, and it really shows you. And I think cities are just finding the south sheriff that it ain't just the border and it didn't require just Abbot and DeSantis moving people. Once you get that many, it's a natural flow. I got about thirty seconds. How hopeful are you coming out of your meeting that if this thing does fail, which looks like it will, that they might come to their senses.

You know. The thing is is, after all these years, you know, you're hoping for a good deal that's puts border security first, and then if you're going to revamp the immigration system, it needs to work. But what we're seeing now is more about amnesty, more about allowing you thousands of more verses come in our country, but no real fix. So you know, I wasn't really optimistic when I was hearing the negotiations of what we were getting coming out to you know, to us in the news. And I

don't really see anything between now an election cycle. It's all about election cycles. Uh, But I want to see the work shifts want you know we do you know. We're problem solvers and we want to see things happen
