Wednesday-2-14-2024

One more day after this six hours of broadcast. That sounds accurate. So and then Monday is a holiday, so that's just amazing. All right, we're doing that thing. I walk in Ross, It's like, God,

I feel like it's Thursday today and I'm here for that. That is Valentine's Day today though, So you know, if you do that, have fun with that, right there A lot of I'm telling I, you know, I think out of probably I consider the four or five people that I chat with the most, Ross being one of them correct me if I'm wrong. No, nobody I know makes a big whoop out of it, and I

don't. Maybe it's like paranoid. Maybe they're just like it's it's the attitude that people I tend to socialize with had where they're like, god, this is how they get you. I think that's a healthy attitude comes to things like Valentine's Day because then you're like, I'm not gonna fall into the commercialization. So and as I'm wrong, you guys do stuff. I know you know you're not. You guys aren't big. No, we'll go out to

eating stuff this afternoon before we pick up Lincoln from school. But like we can't stay in the holiday. We hate, we hate this holiday. Where are you guys going to eat? Like a none of your business? Oh wow, that sounds good. What I mean? I got to eat too? What time you guys going out? Once again? That would be none of your business? Yeah, let me just tell everyone where, right, let me just tell everyone where we're gonna have our meal this afternoon. That's

great. Now you guys don't get to eat out. Yeah, we're gonna be at a hot dog and a stick and at the mall. So I wasn't trying to extract that. But now if you didn't retrospect, just like you know, reflexively, save felt horribly right. So that'll be hot dog and a stick today if anybody wants to, you guys are gonna swing by the Orange Julius too, or yeah, you know, maybe the American Cookie or the cinnabon. I don't know if all the time right, I'll be

there right there by the door man, help us enjoy the holiday. Sorry, yeah, no, in retrospect, yeah, you probably shouldn't say that, so, but to be fair, I only said it because everyone assumed that your answer would be a certain thing, even if that's not at all. Were you guys reading? So yeah, but if you come in smelling like, you know, garlic and butter, tomorrow I'll have some guesses.

But all right, well, yeah that's today. So but also after that we're probably picking up a new kitchen sink and a new garbage disposal, because yesterday, I want to say, probably around four thirty five o'clock, I'm in the kitchen as you do, and I'm making myself a nice protein shake because you need at least two dagrams of protein today it's common knowledge. And then the brothers from the home renovation show showed up. No. So then over to my left is the sink over there in the room, and I

hear something that goes like and I'm like, what is that? Is that a demon? And I look at it. I'm like, it's the garbage disposal. It is like an AOC demon. Remember back in the day, she was like, what is this thing in my apartment? It makes noise? It's a demon? Nice stig mod or whatever. Yeah. Yeah, And I go over there and I look at it and there's smoke coming up out of the face like the drain. I mean, what is that? So I opened up the catatorny and the thing is so hot, dude,

it is like lava. And I'm like, this ain't good. So I run out the house. I turned the breaker off, and I'm like, oh, this is gonna be a simple project. Just I just have to unplug the garbage disposal and take it off. No, it is not a simple thing. And I'm like, I'll go on to YouTube and how do I do this, you know, because that's what we do now, And there's no like twenty second explanation. They're like ten minute videos. I'm like, this is great. So I end up taking all the plumbing off,

taking the whole thing off. You got it. You can't just plug the bottom. It's not like a plug, right because the wiring goes in and you got it. So I got to figure out how to take the bottom off of that plugged anyway, that's why PREP was a bit late last night. I didn't I didn't read anything into it. I but I didn't notice. It was probably an hour later than it usually was. But so it was fun. That's that's fun. Happy. The house didn't burn down, so it's great. Yeah, no, no, no, no, that's

a that's an upside. Yeah, I don't think those are supposed to smoke. I'm not a pliant's expert. Mark. He's taking a shower and I yelped the stairs. I'm like, you need to come downstairs, like right now, right, and she's like, what is it? What's going on? Out of the pants, Like this is awesome, but besides that, like go go look over there. She's like a dude, it was absolute panic and pandemonium. You sure it wasn't soothing oils like it was not.

No, okay, but the positive is now I know how to uh dismantle and take off a Garberg's disposal as well as put it back on because of you know, I've taken it off. So yeah, yeah, yeah, we're picking up that. And then we're like, you know what, we might as well buy a new sink while we're at it, because we have this black matte sink, and we're like, let's get like a stainless steel type thing because the black is gross. To get up figure out one of

those big farm sinks. I like that, man, Yeah, we need to get like the two Oh gosh, now I'm not even I'm not even old and married. Well i'm old, but now i'm excited about recommending sinks to you. What is happening to us, dude? I got super excited over the roof back in November. Oh geez. Yeah. Every day it was like Chris, it was like an advent calendar of their coming. I'm super excited because yesterday we had the guy come and measured for gutters. We're

having gutters put on. We're having our back steps porch done because we had no gutters, so the water kept falling on the back steps, which rotted the wood. So now we're fixing that. And now we're going to a new sink at a new garbage disposal. So and the best part is all this is super cheap. No, it's what I understand. Yeah, uh, Biden told me about. Now you got to make sure because you might. You might go in and instead of a big kitchen sink, it'll be

the same price, but it'll be like a small little wash basin. That's how they get you, man. So you know I heard this is what I heard for the president, and he's not wrong. Ah yeah yeah. Simultaneously you cringe thinking about because like when you buy a sink or a toilet, nobody, most people until they bought one have no idea what they cost, right, and in their mind, you don't, like you don't associate a toilet or even one of the big kitchen sink. You just look at

it. You're like, oh, it's you know, fabricated metal well faucet or you know, if it's made of like it's not porcelain, whatever, but it's the whatever the hell it is. Maybe it is porcelain, we ours is gold. So well, my point is I'm not gonna, not gonna I'm myself on porcelain poverty. Okay, but do you remember the first time you saw what a toilet costs? Yeah, you're like, oh my gosh, you take that for granted until you have to buy one, exactly.

But there's also the excitement of it too. So all right, so you guys, uh get me. So you're getting each other. She's getting you a sink, you're getting her garbage disposal them. Isn't that the old joke You can't you can't buy a woman a kitchen thing or a cleaning tool. But I suspect like she probably, like you, is excited about the possibilities, right, Oh completely, yeah, no, excited about them. Okay, all right, well, very good. Eh, that sounds uh,

that sounds fun. And then they're gonna eat somewhere hot dog go and a stick. I believe it's what he said. So all right, so we got that going for you. I just reading this this morning. Do you know CBS News fired eight hundred people yesterday and Monday. Now, some people are pointing to the fact, well, isn't it ironic? Literally they fired people a day or and or two days after the most profitable broadcast in

the history of television based on ad revenue and viewership. Because CBS obviously just hosted the Super Bowl, and I'm glad they did because I was able to watch it on my other I don't have cable, so I have this hojj poge of stuff and it was so the super Bowl was on CBS Plus, so I was able to on the TV that just has the Apple TV on. It was able to put that on there, which you know, I appreciate that. But they, you know, they got my what is I

don't remember what I paid for CBS Plus. What is it like twelve dollars or something, probably twenty by the end of the year. So, but CBS and Paramount have bigger problems, right so a lot of people making that causation. But throughout this story earth within the larger story, they're smaller stories. And one of the people that they let go that I saw getting a lot of discussion on Twitter is Catherine Herriage. You know Catherine. She spent

twenty years at Fox. She ended up going to CBS and she is their senior. She's the top correspondent for investigative reporting and National Security. I believe it's her title Investigative and National Security chief course she's so she's top of the food chain for that particular slice of reporting, and she was one who got fired in this. And I saw people putting tweets out and they're they're missing

the bigger picture here because they're like, well, isn't that interesting. A day after, Herriage reports that the files, the files that the Biden that Biden is accused of retaining, seemed to have a pattern, and that pattern is associated specifically with countries in which the Biden's allegedly or provably due business.

You know, that's an interesting coincidence because we have that incident where Hunter Biden basically put a prospectus in a pitch out and utilized really high level data that had been gathered by our three letter agencies, encompassed and encased in documents that were to be used by the President and others to determine foreign policy. That that information was made available as a bit of a sampler to the these entities that Hunter was wanting to do business with. And what it says is,

hey, look what I have access to from an information standpoint. Plus my last name is Biden. Isn't this valuable? So when you put those two together, but here's the deal, and people are like, they fired her the day after. Okay, the information she reported was in the letter that Comer produced and Jordan produced, and there's one other and basically wanting to get a hold of the five hour interview and some deposition stuff from Joe Biden.

So Herridge didn't uncover that independently. She's reporting. If you read her story, she's reporting on what's in there, although she then pairs it with previous reporting and it's a well written article. And so the people immediately got mad. They're like, ah, you're trying to find a link. Here. Here's my take on this one. Herridge was herriage was am I pronouncing her name correctly? I just in my head just for a moment. I'm like, uh, let's see, Yeah, it is Heridge anyway, Catherine Herridge.

Yes, she did report on that, but the beef with heriage among reporters is evidenced if you read the Daily Beast article on this. They didn't like her around there. But here's the thing I noticed. Herrit's reporting style didn't change, you know what I mean? All the stuff she reported on the way she delivered it under Fox when she went over to CBS didn't change. And it's clear that some of her fellow coworkers didn't have a lot of respect for her. Who is it Chris Wallace? Right? No, No,

Chris who was the Fox News guy went over to CNN? What is wrong with my brain this morning? Sorry? I was just reading one hundred different reporters' names. Is that Mike Wallace? No, not Mike Wallace? Yeah, uh huh. Remember he went over and reduce CNN Plus and they offered him a bucket of money and then they canceled it like a week later. Yeah, I was absolutely hilarious. Oh it was great. But yeah, Chris Wallace anyway. But Chris Wallace's attitude and reporting style was markedly different

than when he did Fox. These are the things that I pick up on and with with Herridge, it didn't pivot and you could see that people around her within the organization didn't have a lot of respect, and we don't have a lot of respect. And you're trying to put a list together of which employees to let go based on the value that you as leadership. See one, I suspect Herriage probably got paid more being you know, big the chief

correspondent for that in twenty years experience prior to that with Fox. That being said, people are allowed to sit there and what's the what was the line from the nineties son? Things that make you go hmm, right, that's that's what they're looking at. And people lost their damn minds on that. How dare you allege this? The very same people who were you know of you know, tell me about microaggressions and did reporting on the sea pack stages

looking to Rooney are being hypercritical. You're allowed to look at things and go huh because it is that very human nature that some people are able to hone and serves them well in journalism. It's supposed to be part of journalism. You're supposed to be knowledgeable enough on the process and the people so that when something doesn't smell right, something doesn't look right, you are naturally intellectually curious,

and intellectual curiosity is gone within a big swath of the media. So if you see something and it doesn't make sense, explore it, even if you're not in the media, go and you know, read up on what you can't ask questions if you can post questions to elected officials at town. This is what journalists used to do, or supposed to do. And it is that inkling, that sense that something's off here, that is perfectly fine to ask the questions, like, let me give you an example that's not

reporting ross. Let me ask you a question. Tell me if it's a thing that makes you go hmm, that's interesting. Are you ready? Yeah, all right, all right. Let me throw a number. Let me throw a stat out. The Kansas City Chiefs in their three Super Bowl wins, encompassing thirteen quarters of football because of the OT Oh I know where this is. Yeah, go ahead, have exactly zero offensive holding. Yeah that's

weird. Does that make you go hmm? Well, yeah it does because I've seen many videos where I'm looking at like that looks like holding to me, like blatant holding. Went research, right, yeah, wow, because you started with the premise, you did the research and it's helped you probably move closer to a conclusion, right that in thirteen quarters the penalty that we're told happens on every play but is not called on every play. I never fell on that particular team. That makes me go, hm, anyway,

we'll be back. Good morning, everybody. I'm sorry, I just I just think damn near gave Ross and an aneurysm. I was just pointing out that, you know, they had all these big layoffs and yet like CBS like they like they have more, they have a ton of diversity or diversity or DEI related correspondence. They didn't get the acts and uh, they had an announcement here what just a week ago that the money pit that is the Matlock reboot is even more of a money pit and they've never even aired an

episode this idea rebooting Mattlock. Okay, all right, what do you want to know? Why don't stop? Just don't do it? And how is it a money pit? It seems like it'd be like a simple show. Rightly, you have a an old man lawyer in a courtroom. It's oh old man. Huh what black man is playing matlock Man? Huh hm? What Filipino quadriplegic trans woman is playing Matt Luck? It's not not not quite a Kathy Baits what are you? Yeah, you're being serious. I'm dead

serious, Kathy Baits. Is Maddie? Is Madeline Mattie Matt Luck, that's her character name. Is this supposed to be like his daughter or something or his niece? Is he in it at all? Or he? Is he not a thing anymore? The original Matt Luck? Is he part of the canon of the show? Wait? Are they gonna forced ghost him like with

the New Ghostbusters? Like it's their daughters? No. No, So there's a bunch of big names cut attached to this, and they they had a bunch of strike issues, and then it wasn't test screening well, and so then they brought in more star power and they keep throwing money at it, and then it tested worse somehow, and then they push it off to the twenty twenty four to twenty five season, so you won't see it till the

fall. But that's if it goes forward and they're throwing like friends style money into this thing because you got Kathy Baits, you got then they just brought in Beau Bridges. Just bring in the entire I hope she she plays. I hope she's doing it with her like southern accent like she did in the office. Just bringing the entire cast of the office. But reboot it as matt Loock. We will that cost? What will that be cheap? Can you bring in U Steve Carrell and just bring Dwight? And but didn't they

do wait didn't they do a young Mattlock. I don't know. I want Ran Wilson to be in it. But as Dwight? Uh no, So Bridges is the head of the law firm, which the now reflective, brilliant this is I'm reading from their thing, Matty. Kathy Baits stars as Madeline Matty Mattlock, a brilliant which you want a dumb name by the way, but like h Mattlock doesn't just say it. Let's get other ones that sound

like it, all right, get a third all right? Perfect Madeline Mattie mattlockceptija brilliant sceptagenarian who achieved success in her younger years and has decided to rejoin the workforce at a prestigious law firm where she uses her unassuming demeanor and wiley tactics to win cases. Uh, let's see here. Who else do you get? Jason Ritter in this? Bridges is head of it? Yeah, they got They got a ton of people I'm seeing I don't. Yeah, Rain Wilson's not in the list here. So, by the way, do

you know who one of the producers is for this? Uh? Brie Larsen. Wow, that's great, It's great, sure'll be fine, Sure it'll be big success. You know what. Here's my fear, and I think all North Carolina Carolinians can share in this. You're ready? What if this isn't the only show of his that they're going to reboot for a modern audience? You know what I'm driving at. Can you imagine what modern day Hollywood would do to the Andy Griffiths show? Can you even fathom what that would

look like? Because you have to go with the era. It would literally literally what you what you would see is you'd see Andy and Opie and all them like they'd be standing there in front of that high school in Arkansas, protel, you know, throwing stuff at Little Black girls trying to you. If you think they wouldn't take that tact at least least injected into it,

you're just not even paying attention. With Matt Lock, you know, it was funny because you know, one of the one of the things that networks will talk about is and then they'll throw up their hands, they go, you know, audiences are just they just don't get it, like we this is why we can't do strong, you know, female driven shows, or this is why we can't do shows starring older actors. And it's or we you know, we try to when we try to launch shows where it's surrounding

a family of color people. And I'm and I'm like, you know, I live through all of the eras where all of those were wildly popular. Think about it. They if you're over, if if you're forty, if you're at least forty years old, the age of television that you grew up into and threw into your young adulthood, and think about it. Think about the swath of shows that we had that were helmed by older actors. Golden Girls, Mattlocke, Murder, she wrote, and I believe all of them

were top shows in at some point in there in their broadcast run. And if you go back to when I was in high school, remember Fox Fox's thing when they were trying to really gain ground, is they had a lot of shows, much more than the other networks that were primarily casted by you know, black actors or Hispanic actors in the case in living color, in living color, fresh prints. Yeah, there were, and not the portrayals where people complaining, they're like, oh, why are you showing you know,

in crime roles are in that. I'm not talking about the wire or any of that stuff. They ironically showed people on both sides of that were people of color. I'm talking about popular ass shows when I was a kid. Lake Martin, Yes, Martin absolutely, Bernie Max's show was hilarious, man, and people didn't have a problem with it. And they did talk about issues and yes, you know I see people go. You know, they didn't they didn't get into race issues or any of that stuff. That's

why you know they whitewashed it all that. But if there's there's super cuts out there, fresh Prince of bel Air directly addressing all of the things that they beat you to death with today, but also more importantly, showing the way in which the people are sending me all their Andy Griffiths stuff. Now, all right, but you know where it was more focused on the family dynamics there, and I know maybe that's what people have a problem with.

They just they didn't feel was being weaponized, and so they refused to you know, they refuse to recognize that this was this was a thing and people people didn't have you know, people weren't up in arms over it. I don't remember the great Fresh Prince protests. So you know what's changed is Kathy baits gay in this? You know, I don't know. I don't see anyone cast as a love interest, so who knows. And here's the thing, By the way, I like Kathy Bates, Yeah, I got nothing

against her. I like uh, Misery the American Horror Story series, especially the one in New Orleans. That's a great character. That's a great I'm no, I don't I want to. I don't want to ruin a moment of it because uh yeah, don't. Look, there's is there Hollywood preachy stuff and and you know, a modern audience sure in many of them. But I like horror flicks, and that casted a really good job, and

I've enjoyed probably two thirds of the seasons very much. And if you don't know with that, even though the season, each season is different, it's a whole different storyline, timeline, location, everything, and there is some interconnection if you watch those, it's their independent seasonal storylines with the same actors cast into a bunch of different roles. So I don't got a beef there.

But they got this money pit and I'm sorry now I've dwelled on this because I realized maybe I didn't mention they were rebooting Matt Locke and now you know, so prepare your stuff for that. Man, Oh what is this? Oh no, I got yeah, no, no, no, we got the Biden video. Somebody's just mentioning the cookout. Yeah. What's weird

is they just released it. And if you don't know what I'm talking about, there was a video released by the White House or maybe the maybe it was the Biden no And I think it had to be White House because he was on an official trip when Biden was in Raleigh. If you remember, he went to uh went to go grab himself some cookout. Well, Biden sitting there and they as part of as part of the continuation of the cookout

saga. You see a bunch of cookout food and you see Biden sitting down at a dinner table with a father and his two sons, and they're black, and some would say it it comes across as a little pandury. I don't want to do a disservice ross. You watched the video. I mean that dude looks like a good dad, right, Oh, completely, yes, yes, So I I hate that he's tripped up in all of this.

Obviously, I think he probably I look, I shouldn't assume maybe he does have affinity for the president or maybe it's just like, look, the President of the United States is uh, want's come eat? So we'll eat. But I do you notice what's not in the video? That's what I picked up on immediately. There wasn't the father and the two sons. It was there was something missing from that video. So we'll get into that and I'll tell you what I think it is, and you can tell me if

I'm crazy or not. But we got to hit a break six forty six hang on, all right, So this video gets released from two weeks ago? Was it two weeks Biden? Two weeks ago? When Joe Biden came to Raleigh, went over and spoke at the school and did a couple visits. And if you were trying to go up or down falls of news, you're like, well, this is awful, just awful. But you know that's the real I don't hang up too much on it. That's the reality

of when president's visit. Okay, however, you can look at what they're doing and remember we learned that Biden went over to cookout. Well we didn't know until yesterday was that Biden met up with a family and then like went over to their house to eat the cookout. Now I'm not one hundred percent. Look is there going to be a little vetting as to which family is sure? Absolutely right. If you're a politician and dad's got a swastika carved

on his forehead, you're probably not doing a feel good video. And I want to be clear, my beef is not with the family in any way. The two sons and the father looks, you know, from the from the little time that we have, looks like there's a good dynamic there. Looks like a dad I wouldn't want to mess with. And that's fine. That that being said, I did notice that I'm gonna play the audio. I can't ignore the fact that the thing that's missing there's no women in this.

And I don't mean that from a he hates women's standpoint. I mean that from it's probably a good thing. And you gotta wonder if maybe those who are kind of doing the vetting right, because what makes the video that I will play the audio. There's some moments that stand out, but what would make it remarkably creepier is if when I play this video, you imagine that there's like a they have a sister, right, so, like a thirteen year old sister or whatever, and Biden's like, you know, whispering

in her ear doing anything. You don't need that on videos. So if you're one of his ps handlers, this should create a there's no there shouldn't be any visually awkward moments, but there's are awkward moments. Let's get into this. Okay, hold on, I'm sorry the what what? What didn't he just say? So he got he got him cook out and he brought over chicken fingers. Am I allowed to analyze that? I don't. I

don't know how that works. I mean, normally i'd be like, nah, because chicken fingers sound like something a teenager would order or a toddler for that matter. Right, I like chicken fingers in the right setting. But I distinctly remember remember when Trump filled up one of the White House rooms with all of the fast food for who is it Clemson or Jeordie Joe? One

of the whoever was the national championship team? And do you remember everyone losing their damn minds except the athletes, right, Everyone in the media was losing their crap over hell, how dare he? These are fine tuned athletes. And what you saw is you saw now NFL players, but at the time, top tier draft prospects of a national championship team where you're a three hundred

and fifty pound lineman. And you saw those dudes, by the way, of all different racial backgrounds hitting that thing like drunk tourists at a Vegas buffet. You know why, because the season's over. And now, I mean, I'm sure during the season some of them meet it, but the season's over. I told you. One of my roommates in college was a guy who was on the track team. Specifically, he did discus. He did a couple different strength events and during the season and leading up to it.

If that when we had a party, if he had two beers, ever, I never saw it. And if we had a bunch of pizza over, he might have a slice, right he cared the moment, I mean these the second that it was over, he quite frankly, he looked like that. Who's that weirdo on YouTube? Was it avocado dude? The muck bang dude? That's what my roommate looked like. Glad to have you along, Cacoday Radio program phone number eight eight eight nine three four seven eight seven

four. All right, so Joe Biden getting some cook out. And again, I ten years ago, I would have just looked at this in some innocuous manner and went, oh, this seems a little pandury, But you know, Dad and the kids seem nice, and it's just a politician being and people look the other way. But I am forced, apparently to micro analyze everything, and I'm going to do so through the filters by which I've seen things analyzed previously. So with that in mind, let's get into it.

It's only about a minute minute ten uh. Here is the conversation. I'm still trying to figure out what the second sentences, he says, but listen in chicken fingers, you got I went the root making sure I have so okay, so okay, So I think, he says, I went the route to make sure I have a hamburger. But there's a little thing before it. Don't know about you guys, what you doing these days? I want to share about your passing sports. I'm playing au basketball right now?

Are your guard? Yes, sir? Now what grade? Seventh grade? Seventh grade? Now, I'm just basketball playing guard on the jink team for my school. In school. How do you have doing in school? It's apt present about the school. Favorite thing about it is the business academy I'm in. You get to like travel. Something've been to like NC State, wait Tech and damn, I went to this small joy cleaning business and

it's just it's going some great experience. Is that new program in the school, Yes, sir, it is. It just started just a couple of years ago. You know how I love you, You just feel I can't. It's the dad you up in front of the bull for you? Why would we? That's hard race. Once you're a teenager, hard race, So you gotta be patients. You know patient, and again it's yeah, ten years ago would have just been all right, this seems a little pandury,

and then that would have been the end of it. But because there's nothing really that, there's nothing really to hate in there, do you know what I'm saying. The conversation is pretty normal. They're talking about what the kids are involve talking about the school. You know, dad's doing the thing. Hey, you're you know, like your parent would do when you were a kid. They're like, tell mister or so, and this just happens to be the president, but tell them about what you're doing in school.

Tell him about how sports is going, right, Because in a way, that's a parent bragging on you. And that's that's good stuff right there. That's that's wholesome, if you will. But I'm forced to view it through this these these goggles that have been forced upon our media analysis. But at least I can provide you both sides of it. So me analyzing it, I just see a kind of pandery politician thing and what looks like a nice

family. But you run it through the other filters and uh, it quickly breaks down, all right, But he seemed to be actively participating in it, but he didn't. It didn't seem lost at all, so I guess that's good, right, And he clearly had finished his ice cream by the time he had gotten there, so good on him with that. All right, what is this? I'm not? Yes, thank you, thank you everyone sending me the same joke five times? I got it? All right? Cool, cool, all right, coming up, it is seven to

ten. We will get in on the show. Get into on the show. There we go New York City, striking a blow for planet Earth, which we found out yesterday, if you remember, was getting greener, and

which has scientists both concerned and baffled that there's more plants. Huh. I wonder if having more vegetation, if there's any if there's any analysis in the larger global climate warming change discussion, if increase plant life might be a worthy discussion topic in relation to other aspects of some of these scientists claims, right, because I remember in school hearing that plants they do they Oxygen's not their jam, it's something else. But it's been a while since I've been in

school. Maybe I'm wrong. Ross. Had you heard that that oxygen's crave a different atmospheric gas than perhaps the one that we crave. Yes, I have heard that. Yes, Oh wow, look at that. That's double sourced. Yeah. Oh man, But but no, this is where we are, so uh we we got to break these things down, and sometimes I'll break them down under the rules that I am told that we have to abide by. All right, help me break this down? You ready? Oh? Where did I put this? Damn it? Did I not send?

Maybe that's my fault. Did I not send you the tunnels story? I did. I had to have sent that to you. No you did. Why am I not seen it in the stack? Oh? Sorry about this? Oh? Here we go? Got it? Okay? Oh that's weird. Yeah, I didn't go up in the all right, all right, So I don't know. It's it seems like a lot of the coverage from all things Israel Gaza's kind of trickled down. But I feel like this might be an important one the Israeli defense forces. And again, you can

decide whether you believe what you're about to be told or not. Although it looks like our own because remember we are still providing information and technical stuff, if not boots in the ground, it sounds like intelligence agencies seem to believe this is true, though they're not one hundred percent sure the the entire reason. But it's not about why they're there, and I'm being a little cryptic, but I'll tell you in a moment, but rather where they are,

and I think some reporters are missing the point. So the Israeli Defense Forces say they have discovered an additional underground hamas complex, tunnels, meeting rooms, electrical infrastructure, literal internet terminals. Right, but it's where they found it. Nope, not under a hospital. Instead, the IDF and US intelligence say that the underground facility runs from a It runs underneath a school, but also a school that a lot of people feel that they're they're teaching more than

reading, writing and arithmetic. Of course, they don't teach that in schools anyway anymore, but in this case they feel that the school may be using for use for recruiting and or some not so nice training. And then the bulk of it connects from the school and runs directly underneath the United Nations GAZA

headquarters. Well that's weird, huh. So what you have an underground tunnel system connecting a school that intelligence officials believe might be doing some we'll just say some some different training, and then the tunnel system runs under and the bulk of the meeting and the infrastructure is under the Gaza UN Relief and Works Agency, the United Nations headquarters in Gaza. How is that not a bigger story? Because there's a couple of things. One they seem to be leeching off

of the electrical within the UN building and the school for that matter. But like that stuff that stands out, you know, I get my I get the the I'll tell you the one that's the smallest is the Dominion energy bill for the gas. And it's always like it's not a lot of money because I just it's gas stove and then gas heat. But I don't really run the heat much because I got a fireplace. But but like if that that thing was up like four dollars the other month, and I'm like how that

happened? Right? So, if you're running a full military command center slash training facility in tunnels and you're sapping into somebody else's electric, I think you're gonna pick up on it. So that's weird. But then they start to speging, well, what were the tunnels for? What? What do you mean? What are the tunnels for? Do you think that there's some tunnels there that are not about of avoiding detection by IDF, avoiding you know, bombings, right, do you? What do you like? So if that's

your theory, then I'm sitting there speculating. And then I remembered ross, I used to live in Minneapolis and Saint Paul. You probably have heard me mention this. Do you know that in Minneapolis and then in Saint Paul as well? But Minneapolis has a better network that you can pretty much move through the entirety of downtown and never actually go outside through a series of tunnels and

then skyways as well. Tunnels or skyways depend on which building you're moving so feasibly like I could when I was living in one of the connected buildings in Minneapolis. I could go shopping, I could go out to eat. I mean I could literally go to Target, I'd go to the grocery store, I could go to any of the bars or restaurants. I could go watch the Timberwolves play, and I would never have to physically walk outside. So

is that what you mean? Because I don't think it's snows much in Gaza, But I don't know I've never been there, so maybe it does snow in the Middle East a lot, and this is because Afghanistan gets snow, but I don't feel that that's what's going on. So yeah, that's the story. Let's see here to do. The Associated Press actually did report on

it, so that's good. They actually took reporters down there and show that the tunnel did in fact run underneath the headquarters courtyard and in the video taken by Associated Press, and the Wall Street Journal said, who else they put down there? Yeah? Wall Street Journal. You see server racks, you see all the electrical infrastructure, you see meeting tables, you see the stuff

you saw in the other tunnels, the military network. Now they say they've up the number includes three hundred and ten miles of tunnels running beneath the Gaza Strip. And just to put that in perspective, the Gaza, the Gazza Metro, if you look at the size of it, is smaller than New

York's New York and the boroughs. Okay, this is important because that tunnel system is roughly equivalent to half of the New York Subway Systems tunnel system, and they don't have a damn subway in sight there, so you know, to play it off like, oh, they're just trying to avoid the heat and some of the other stupid stuff I've seen. No, And if you're

the UN and you have high security apparatus, you go. If you ever go to the UN headquarters in New York, it's there's more security than you've ever seen, and understandably so like it's you know, nothing but dignitaries running through there, and you know how they feel about their security. So I feel like if I tunneled under the New York UN headquarters and had, you know, built a compound under there, somebody would notice. Hell, they

just figured out tunnels next to a synagogue and everyone freaked out. So that leaves some people asking, are there like that AID agency where they determined that ten percent of the employees may have participated in the hunting up of their enemies on that faithful day in October, how many sympathetic folks are there in that UN building? And if you listen to him talk, it kind of feels like there's quite a few. But that's just my two cents. Oh all

right, let's get over to this. I didn't know who this dude was because I never watched the show. Then I saw him, and I guess I kind of recognize him. Andrew Keegan is this actor's name. Keegan appeared in Party of Five Moesha. He was best known for Seventh Heaven. I'm trying to ten things I hated, but I never watched most of these, so that's why I didn't know who it was. But it gained my interest because dude did a media appearance following a bunch of rumors that had emerged of

him reportedly attempting to become a cult leader. So he actually went died an interview over this. The forty five year old, when asked about it during an interview yesterday, said so, what are you saying. I woke up

one day and I was anointed a cult leader. And then he starts laughing, and he starts talking about Venice Beach and the you know, kind of the hippie culture there, and he said, look, we just I'm immersed in the culture in the community, and there are interesting groups of hippie types and if you will, especially in vent Uh, we definitely spiritually gravitate towards

each other. And I was connected with folks who gravitated towards me. And then one day I saw that the old Harry Krishner Temple was sitting empty and was like, why don't I buy this and we get some people together and open this place up. So he did, and now they're like, ah, they're coming to essentially like you're you're the leader there, and he's trying to pooh poo this. I'm gonna tell you what. I just want to be our record here. If I ever am a famous Hollywood actor or even

semi famous, I guess first thing I'm doing is starting a cult? Are you kidding me? I call I called has a bad word. Let's go with cult of personality. Do you know what I'm saying? Ross, Like day one, get that cult going. No, cults are great, I highly recommend them. I mean it's not really a cult. It's called like a club. It's a club, you know what I mean? Is it club? Why is it going to be a cult? I mean it's a

former temple, it's is it really cult? I mean I would imagine if you're a cult, if the brand yourself and in some way right in your genitals, yes, yes, yes, oh that's only right. No branding, no cult? Do you Remember my favorite part of that story was, like, what's it? Curson was a Kirsten Gillibrand's father was like the the attorney for the cult, that Nexium cult, right, and he was their

employee, their labor attorney. Right. So he's the guy who has to determine if like the genital branders like exceeding hours under California law or something. Just bonkers. What what? It's a labor guy, right, you got to unionize it. Look the guy. You can't just make him a manager and then unlimited genital branding. I see what you're doing. All right, we'll be back you guys. Watch that show Ross. You guys ever watched Storage Wars right where they go and they bid on the show? We used

to be into it. Yeah, it was one of the It was one of those that even from it's on set, I'm like, this looks rigged. Yeah. One guy wasn't Dave Hester I think was his name. He sit back and be like, yep, dude, yeah, yeah. There is a bunch that came out where they're just like, all right, so this three hundred dollars one he just bought quick stick of Da Vinci in there,

right. So but I'd watch this episode. This is horrible. Two Colorado funeral home owners are accused of abandoning two hundred bodies and instead using the money that the families had paid for cremations and burials to buy a fleet of vehicles, a cryptocurrency, lavish trips, dinners. There's a fifteen hundred dollars dinner charge from a Vegas restaurant. Here, a lot of gambling. Basically, what was this? They say, all told they stole that they can

prove right now. They said they can prove that they stole one hundred and twenty thousand. Let's see here, and that's just based on the bodies they found. They think it's a lot more, all right, So what do they do with the bodies? Right? Because they got paid the money and you know you're gonna cremate. Although with cremation, I don't know the totality of the work that goes into it, but you either have the furnace or not. Well, this couple they were doing it. They were claiming they

were doing green cremations. It was different than normal cremation. Was I saw that that was part of it. The whole the whole thing was a scam. So they were like, give us your loved ones and we'll we'll cremate it and it's good for the environment and it's green and it won't pollute. And what they were doing is just storing the bodies in this storage and this

stirlding or whatever. They had a storage facility attached to their their actual storefront, so when it was and when they gave the remains to families, it would just be like a mixture of dirt and concrete. So I'm gonna get into that. It's awful. I spilled. I've spilled water on Grandma and now we have stairs. Right, what the I suck? Oh that's Grandma, she's here for us, right, that's that's good. That's Nana from beyond the grave. It wants to make sure that we don't trip and fall.

It's symbolic. It means you always have to keep going up, you know, just keep you know. What a good message, What a great message. Thanks thanks Nana. Yeah, oh, this thing is so messed up. Man Ah. This is in Penrose Cove into Penrose. That's not

a great place. So according to uh, yes, according to Thorn authorities, I saw the green thing was a component, but Actually, now I think that might be not guilty because if they're just stacking them like cordwood to decompose in a storage facility, I mean that's greener than you know, running a furnace and emitting all that co two. Right, can you imagine the

dude that just stumbled across and found that. But he only paid two hundred dollars for units, So I mean they I guess some of the bodies had liquefied. Yeah, oh it's yeah, it's I'm I'm I was somewhat managing, let's going to get into but it's not bucket of sports cars. But it's pretty horrific. That's that old ever. I mean, that's such a horrible story too. Although with that, well they were promising the families that

the bodies would go to science, right, that was the deal. I think with that, it was it was no no, that's it wasn't no remember buckets of sports cars. It was cryo freeze, right, that's what they were selling people. So if you remember in Arizona a year or two ago they busted a facility families that it was a mix of that's what it was. So they had people had donated families bodies for science, and then they also were taking bodies in for cryo freeze, and instead they were doing

none of those things. And when they finally rated it and you read the description of what they found in the facility, like there was there were like they were sorting body parts, so oddly they were like cutting bodies up. And one of the items on the evidence list was they had like a you know, like a standard bucket and it had nothing but men's appendages in there.

Do you understand what I'm saying. We refer to as sports cars here on the show, but that part of a man's body, which, yeah, and they just had a bucket of them, so that was pretty horrific to Ross's point, Yeah, they were just letting them decomp in this facility,

which is probably half the year. Okay in Colorado, you're not picking up, but you got to keep Yeah, make sure you pay your AC bill for the rest of it. And yes, returning to the Famili's a little mix of quick crete and ash or who knows what the concoction was. But what a creepy story. Man. Let's see some of the bot Now here's the line. Some of the bodies had been in a maggot infested building for years. But it was the foul odor permeating the small mountain town.

That's the other thing saying. I've been to Penrose. It's not a big it's a little nothing. It's a postage stamp. It's a south park if you will. Families who hired return to nature to cremate the relatives tell the AP. The FBI confirmed their relatives remains among the bodies. So my question is, all right, because Ross you seem to know more about the green angle here. What were they telling them they were doing with the bodies?

Were they it was composting? Is that what they were saying that they were doing, because that's the thing in Colorado made legal recently an Oregon and a few other places. I don't know if that's how they were doing, because they're still giving them the ashes, So I don't know if it was just obviously all complete bs. You know, the way that we do it is safer for the environment and no. But I'm trying to figure Okay, but

that's what I'm trying to wrap my head around. Was it like there's two camps here, one where they're like, oh, we're gonna decompose, because that's the thing that, for whatever reason is that's supposed to be decomposition. Like the whole thing was just a scam. They said, we're just gonna, we're gonna we cremate them, but it's somehow it's better for the environment

than the standard cremation. What are they using a giant magnifying glass. Well, it's indicative of the entire green movement right when you look at this story, it's horrific and it's awful, but it's like the entire green agenda. It's all built on lies and it's all bs right, and and and grift completely, so much grift. Yes, absolutely. By the way, did you see how many private jets left Vegas Sunday night? I mean you say that, but are they green jets? Yes? And I know And here's

how I know. You're ready? You're Ready're ready? Ready? One uh, they were talking about how they had trying to whose jet it was some Hollywood idiots jet And then they were questioning They're like, you know, you can drive to LA in like three hours, but you brought a jet. And they were talking about how jets many of these jet owners are. You know, they're facing criticisms, so they're greening them up, and they were. They had a video of some mixed drinks on one but they had paper

straws and I just burst out laughing. Right. They were doing a defense of the fleet of private jets for people who live three hours away, and to do it, they included a photo of a cocktail with a paper straw on it. Can you imagine. Let's say after the show Ross, you're you go back over to the FBO and jump on your G five to head home to wake Forest, right, and and your pang of guilt strikes you. You're like, man, I've taken a jet for what is it thirty

minutes for you to get home with the jet? It's five? And you're like, you know what I'll do, I'll get paper straws in here. It reminds me of the one boss we had one time. Oh my god. The first thing he did was replaced that we can't have styrofoam cups in the kitchen anymore because how did he what did he say? How did he do it? It's bad for the environment. Yeah, but we still had a Costco sized box. He said, when they're gone, they're gone,

right, correct? You and what and what happened. I brought it in my own my own cups, yeah, and my own styrophone cup. But it was just it's the irony of it because you're running multiple radio stations that use power. But I guess if it makes you feel good, you can bring in the styrofoam cups or take out the styrofoam cups to be fair, occasionally use power unless it rains down. It's same thing some of my giant jet polluting the earth, but we're using you know, paper straws, so

I feel good about myself. The follow up too, is I had I had bought the I had a Costco stack of styrofunk cups, and I brought two of the stacks in and put him in the box. And I was gonna keep doing it just to see if he would lose his mind. But you know, like it's Jesus his fish and loads. Oh that was that was That was awesome. And now he's not anywhere with us, so the star and now we have cups again, so whatever, all right? Seven

forty five rays stag it for the Weather Channel. Sorry, dude, I said, they were talking about five hundred and forty some jets leaving the Super Bowl and that a lot well so, but they pointed out that the top destination is one of the five LA area airports, and it's like it's three hours drive. So some people are thinking it's a little hypocritical. But they had a photo of some Hollywood or some jet that brought a bunch of Hollywood

folks, and you can see the cocktails have paper straws in it. And there's just something and deeply ironic about implementing paper straw usage on a thirty million dollar private jet. So right, yeah, right, running on peace and love and well, yeah, that's poop. I don't know, Yeah, it could be. I had that jet. It would be all paper straws you'd get or you get plastic straws, and I would have one of those little bomb doors, and then when we're flying over the like where the sea

turtles are nesting, I would just eject all of the the waste. Wow, look, if you're gonna go full evil doctor, I guess that's the way to do it, right, You gotta you gotta, you gotta sell it. So all right, I wouldn't really do that, no, but you know, maybe if the sea turtles wouldn't do so much blow. They wouldn't get straws stuck in their nose. Hey, I mean on the ocean, right, All right, Well we'll look into it, but for now, it's a good sea turtle. Look. Yeah, wow, it's yeah,

it looks great. Plenty of clear sky to use a pilot reference. I guess clear below one two thousand, so I mean, there's not even any high clouds. So it looks good. Next few days, lots of sunshine, upper fifties, load to mid sixties by tomorrow and Friday. So real good looking, good feeling, wet, a little breezy out there at times. Today at ChIL this morning, we are seeing some twenties around, especially from the Triad in west, but they're ritten upper twenties, so not

terrible out there. Tomorrow will be into the thirties, so the real nice weather will continue. Loo. It's a bit breezy, it gets milder. As I said, for tomorrow, let's go load to mid sixties. Same thing for Friday weekend. There's going to be another cold front coming in.

Low pressure is going to pass a north of us, and I'm not convinced yet that there may not be some sprinkles of rain sometime Saturday or Saturday night, but right now going partly sunny Saturday, mid fifties, low's near thirty and only low fifties and sunny on Sunday and lows down your thirty degree. So Chile, if you have the extended weekend for Monday, President's Day, yeah, some chillier weather coming in, but quickly rebounded close to sixty in

the afternoon. Now I'm gonna reset just real quick, Casey. If you are a NASCAR fan, there is rain in the forecast for Daytona on Sunday. And I say that because I'm going to my first NASCAR race ever and it is going to be five hundred Yes, and it is. Well, that's what everybody says. But I am taking some stuff because of the rain forecast, so hopefully we can get it out of there. I mean, you're taking some stuff, some me, you know. Yeah, everybody's blaming

me for the rain. Okay, here's what you are. You guys gonna go on the infield and party or I'm not sure somebody else is planning. I'm so drunk you don't notice it's raining. Okay, are you sitting I'll

tell you what though, my U just real quick NASCAR story. I remember my buddy got tickets to Atlanta. It's pretty straightaway speedway whatever, but we had front row tickets on the fourth turn and I never sat down there, and I sat through this whole race or is pretty spectacular wreck right in front

of us. I think Lebani won that race, if I remember, But but it was at some point I was going and I try to dust off my face and my handsticks to it, and I realized that I look like a Raiders fan, because really the half that was on the side the cars were coming from you had like this like a combination of exhaust and tired rubber and all that. And I saw I was half in blackface, and I didn't mean to be so oh wow, yeah, but it was crazy,

man, when you're up there close. Yeah, I don't know anything about a friend of mine renting the house and buying the tickets, and so that's very nice of them for sixtieth for one of my old buddies. And uh hell so we'll see to keep your eyes field because every day I got a crazy Florida person stories. You might see it live, so yeah, could be heard that in field is interesting. Yeah, all right, all right, bring deep. Don't ask to bring him because it is right around Marty

gra I'm just saying that Daytona they do have some other traditions. Okay, okay, all right, all right, have a good one, thank you. Seven. Hang on. There's one other little nugget in that really creepy creamat doll. I guess an uncrematorium story. But this couple, there's some conversations that were part of the evidence, and in it here we go.

There's two of them, one from twenty twenty and another from twenty twenty one where the Carrie and John Hulford via text message are literally creating a paper trail talking about concerns that John had that the couple they could get caught, and

then a plan developed. According to prosecutors, John suggested that they grat they take all the bodies, which again are filling up the back room of their actual funeral home, and then they have this separate storage facility which is actually it's a converted storage like business park kind of building, which is not good because you got neighbors right there and that's where they smelled it. And John suggested that the couple's quote, dig a big hole and light all the bodies

on fire to get rid of it. That sounds like a dude who's been watching what wuhan was up to it at the same time, is what that sounds like. I remember that during COVID they had the giant map, like the plumes, they had people who were tracking air quality and wuhn right, there was this bunch of red that was and once again was like, hey, that's what happens when it's like a body is burning, when a carbon

based like form is burned, this is the pattern that comes up. And you know, because remember initially they were like, oh, we've had five cases and everyone's fine. Everyone's welded into their house, but everything's fine. And they're like, you got plumes of what looks chemically like a bunch of bodies being burned, and whether they're like, no, it's like gauze, it's medical waste products. No, it's just gauze for just burning gauze.

Okay, this dude was inspired, but they didn't do it. We got lots of stuff to share with you, including and we were just getting into some of this that really creepy funeral story. Let's see and the oh the New Hamas super Tunnels, that's good stuff. But Ray and then we had raced AGC, who was mentioned is going down to Daytona. So let me grab a call on that, and then we'll get into a few other things, including Lando Calarisian who will make an appearance kind of Dana, what's up?

Hey? Hey? So I was calling him because Russ was talking about going to a race in Daytona. Yes, and when I was much younger, I went to one down there. It was pretty neat because we were said in the stands and turn four and it was raining in turn three only I love it. They stopped the race challenge. Yeah, yeah, they stopped it because of the pouring down rain and we were sitting there. It was pretty neat because you could just see the rain over in one turn and

everybody else was dry. Were you Were you mocking the turn three people with your dry clothes? Because yeah, yeah, it was pretty cool. It's it look is is Florida insane? And uh? And thanks for the called in and then we have insane stories. Absolutely, But Daytona's fun. Man, it's a big party. I don't care where you are for the most part of big parties. Uh, I guess depending on whether you're an introvert or an extrovert or whatever. It's it's interesting. I don't like to be

around crowds of people, but I've definitely checked out Marty Grod. They to a few other things. But yeah, so I'm sure he'll have fun down there, or he'll get arrested and it'll be a crazy story and he'll be on the show anyway. So we got that going for us, all right. A couple other things. So apparently everyone's mad at Billy D Williams. Not everybody, but just some busybody reporters are mad at Billy D Williams. Oh, this is so dumb, all right. So there's a book that

came out and this is the authorized biography by Billy D Williams. I wasn't aware this came out whatever, But in the book, especially when you're into late seventies and then most of the eighties, Billy D Williams talked about his you know, his life and how that was and you know, let me say this, being Billy D Williams during that era, that was a pretty good that was pretty good time to be Billy D Williams. In the Star Wars movies. You're obviously you know, you're a singer, you're an actor,

You're everywhere. And in the book, Williams talks about the eighties, boasting about how he perfected his ability to read women's body language. And he actually thanked the a cult forty five commercial he was in with some acting cads. It's just a weird story. But he then uses that to talk about how when he was in the eighties and famous, he slept with all the women. I don't believe it. He's a method actor, man. He was getting the news for the part. Well, just to show you how

dedicated to his craft he was. A lot of people would only study women's but I want at a time, I'm not Billy d Man. He's like, you know, bring the whole class in and yeah, right, mind was on a different level. It's like the will Hunting of Cloud City.

But to me, well that's the thing, Like he basically ran a cult like that, right, I mean, and for all practical purposes, that was his cult, the Cloud cult, right, And uh, you know, I don't know what the rules are if it's if it was like you know, traditional cults where the women can only sleep with the leader and everyone's a eunuch. But I don't know it's his cloud city. But why are

we surprised? This is the thing if you're scolding, they're scolding because they're like, this isn't helpful to brag about how in the eighties you could just you know, raise your eyebrow as Billy D Williams and uh, you know twin sisters would come bed you like that's it, which is literally something that's bragged about in this book. So what you so if you why do you think that's so threatening? If you think that's the worst thing ever, you

should want him to tell the story. It's almost as if you don't want people who you might kind of convince that, you know where you've created this culture where people won't talk to women at work, that this guy, you know, uh, mentioning his eighties body count, which is akin to the population of Houston or something, is like this happened, right, and this happened, not that this happens today. What did you think, Billy D

Williams Ross, wait till these reporters hear about eighties hairband. I was about to say, remember when Chappelle's show came out with the Rick James stuff, Right, Dan, did any of the news about Rick James shock you or would you been disappointed if that was not the case? Right? When it comes to Lando big Star Wars guy, right in the seventies and eighties, wouldn't you just assume that was happening? I I wonder, I wonder what

kind of pie parison for was Land right? Because you know the classic thing is when you get away from the original Star Wars movies, only one person was famous, right, you know that's the bas spent in multiple franchises, right, Yeah, So if you're Harrison Ford, like, you got to be putting up real numbers, man. So am I surprised that Billy d Williams who had women throwing them? No, no, I'm not. And to Ross's point, with Chappelle's show, it wasn't just the Rick James stuff.

It was the Eddie Murphy stuff and the Prince stuff. And in an interview, remember Chappelle's talking about and Charlie Murphy, excuse me, Charlie Murphy. In an interview, they're like, no, that stuff happened. I recently saw a picture of that night of the of the Prince basketball thing. Yeah, Well I saw a photo of Charlie Murphy and Rick James on that on that night, the actual real night, not the skit night, and it is it is perfect. It's in black and white. And Rick James

the look is wilding out. He's dancing in the background of perfect. Yeah, these are things you expect. You don't need some sort of white you know, Watergate deep dive investigation into what Billy Billydy Williams was doing in the late seventies. Dude, Well, yeah, remember they did the same thing. They freaked out on the old uh John Wayne interview that was in Playboy from like nineteen seventy two or whatever it was, or like, can you

believe John Wayne would say these things about America? Yeah? I do because he's John Wayne. Dude. Yeah, yeah, yeah, one hundred percent. But you know, it's the the thing is with this is it's less can you believe John Wayne said this? And it's like, you shouldn't talk about these things. Why do you think somebody might go, hey, that sounds good, Like, what do you Somebody's gonna be like, man,

it sounds like Billydy Williams had some fun. Yeah, And that's one of the reasons to become a superstar like that, right, especially in the seventies and eight come right, yes, do you know the you know the uh not the whiskey guy. It's one of the big LA music clubs down there.

Like you hear these, there's stories that you hear like I I heard you ever heard the story worry about John Lennon and Harry Nielsen, the singer Nielsen who had he was he was the next big thing and when the Beatles came out, Lennon said that Nielsen was his favorite artist in an interview, and that is so it bonded them. Do you know what these two idiots used to do? All right? So they they would they went down because they had beef with the Smothers brothers. Who has beef with this? What?

Right? No? No, no, it is it is Harry Nielsen was he was such a legendary party here. In fact, Nielsen and Robin Williams and Blue she these are all these guys are all thick as thieves. In fact, a lot of people don't know this. Robin Williams was the last person to see Belushi alive. He went over to Blue She's yeah, shook him up for some one reason he decided to go sober for the first time. Yes, yeah, And Nielsen he just drank himself to death and

rubbed himself to death. But at this time they were in their peak and John Lennon and Harry Nielsen had beef with the Smothers brothers, and the Smothers brothers had kind of fallen out of, you know, prime fame, and they had some internal stuff, and so they reunited and they were going to reinvent their act, and they worked on this for months and it was a

big deal. And drunk and high, John Lennon and Harry Nielsen weaseled their way into front row seats at this thing like it's the Copa Cabana, and proceeded to mock and cat call the Smothers brothers until one of the brothers threatened to come down and fight John Lennon. John Lennon stood up, started screaming. Nielsen stood up, started screaming, and they threw John Lennon and Harry Nielsen out of the bar physically. And both of them claim they were so

drunk and high they don't remember doing it. They just remember they had beef with one of the Smothers brothers. That's eighties Hollywood. That's seventies eighties Hollywood. Man, how do you not want to hear those stories? Man? That's amazing. You getting in a fistfight with John Lennon. Yeah, yeah, it's unclear if it was bar security or smother's brother security, but people put hands on him. And there's a Nielsen biopic where I watched that was

really good. I think it was streaming on Peacock but it's and they talk about this inside. It's actually far funnier than I even mentioned. But it's just it's just crazy talent with this stuff. So yeah, Billy D Williams comes out, He's like, yeah, yeah, I went to the Orgies too. I'm not surprised. But apparently some reporters are just like, oh my gosh. And I don't know how old this reporter is, but I'll

bet they're in their twenties. So look, but it's all, look, let's talk about redemption story since now they're trying to tear this this poor man down who did nothing, did nothing wrong that they've alleged legally, just he was popular with the ladies. So let me get over to somebody who I think people tend to have a lower opinion of her following this particular incident when she was head of the Spokane n Double ACP and photos started emerging of her

dress like the Swiss miss girl in Rule, Montana. You know who I'm talking about. We call her Rachel Jolson, her name Rachel Dolazel and she's got a new job. So let's hit the imp. Is that your dad? Yeah, that's that's my ad. Is this man right here as your father right there? Do you have a question about that? Yes, ma'am. I was wondering if if your dad really is an African American man, that's a very I mean, I don't I don't know what you're implying.

Are you African American? I don't. I don't understand the question. I did tell you that, yes, that's my dad. Are your parents a person? Tan? Is all that you need to lead the spoken in Double ACP? Get your white par rents, then find you a black guy, call him your father, and now your lives one big black permniscen ten. Hey, maybe this means white folks are not as bad as we're made out to scene, or it may be that their strategy up there's kind of Wonky

because to lead their advancement, they hired a honky Permaniscen Tan. It almost did the trick except for those photos of her as a white chick. But to get involved, apparently a permit son ten is all that you need. Yes, well, uh, you know, intermittently she would pop up in the news. Uh. First I believe it was for what welfare fraud? Right? They charged her for something there and then she decided, hey, man, you know what I need to do? Only fans and I and

obviously the world was super excited. Ross. It was weird. I bought you that annual subscription and I checked you never logged in? Man, I bought you the the annual only fans. Rachel Dolezel passed log in. Yeah, my PC burst into flames. Oh like your garbage? Just like that? Oh man, did the demon noise come out? That's the question. I'm assuming it's powered by demology? Yes, yes, yes, that's okig so Dolazel, who also claimed to be what was the term for ray?

Uh? Transracial? Yet transracial? Uh? Uh? She she has a new job. You ready for this? Dolazel is now an elementary school teacher at Sunrise Drive Elementary in Arizona. Yet Dolazel is now shaping young minds at this at this school in Arizona. By the way, because she is a public employee, they're paying her nineteen dollars an hour for a teaching job. Doesn't sound like a ton Probably should get that congresswoman on it. I'll explain

in a moment. However, Dolazel also will be keeping her only fans, which currently is nine to ninety nine a month case you're interested. However, their boudoir, I guess it would be the best way to describe it, like they're right on the edge from a you know, whether it is full nu that kind of from what I've read. I've not seen any of the photos, but apparently since it's not full nude, she can keep that. So there's there's that. But yeah, now she's teaching elementary, which absolutely

can you imagine being a parent in that class. And they're like, although she changed her name too, so she doesn't go by Dolla Zela anymore. I can't remember what she they still refer to as that, but I distinctly remember she changed her name and it was a super like African sounding name. Yeah, primary Dolla Zel's primarily. Oh dude, I just scrolled down in this New York Post article. Was not ready for that. Oh no, really, are you okay? This is popped up on your screen there?

Huh? Yeah. I don't know that we can. I you're gonna need a day I you know what, I appreciate the level of concern that you have for me. I'm concerned about you. So you think the remedy for me just having we should probably take Friday as well as Monday. Monday, Monday is a company holidays, Tuesday, perhaps tough it out through Thursday. Take Friday off. It's for your mental health. I can hear it in your voice. Man, Oh my gosh, you need the day off.

Her only fans, consisting primarily of foot pictures, does include some racy lingerie photos. So yeah, what is this? She said? Initially, Dolazel said that she had tried several jobs, but received pushback as folks figured out who the hell she was. What'd you look? That's if she wants to get a job, she's gonna go put in an honest day's work. I

don't have a problem. I guess I have a problem with this psychopath instructing herd graders if she's still all in on this, which, for all practical purposes, look like she is. So any who, all right, I'm gonna go bleach the eyes hang on fun stuff. Uh you know, there's I forgot one little side story which made me chuckle on on falling off the Billy d Williams thing where it's like, ah, can you believe in the eighties, famous movie star and singer was cooking up with a lot of women.

Uh. I did see this and I chuckled. Yeah. Have you guys ever seen the the YouTube video the Hot Ones. They used to do a podcast video all of that, but basically the premise is they eat chicken wings with a range of sauces, and during the eating of the chicken wings, they bring in some celebrity and they've had some big, big, big guests. It's very popular. Ross. I'm assuming you've watched this, of all people, a chicken wings podcast, right, Oh yeah, it's great,

all right. And the dude who hosts it. In some of the photos from the Super Bowl is he's in he's in one of the booths and he's with like Gordon Ramsey and a few other people, And his name is Sean Evans, and so they wrote a piece here because he's canoodling or whatever the word they like to use there in the New York Post with a woman by the name of Melissa Stratton, and Stratton is an adult film actress. And then they figured out that the hot ones dude has just been tearing through

the adult actress community. Apparently he's a big fan of all the little porn starlets and like, and so then then of course they got to do a story about this stuff. But look, I got no I think he's I

think he's fine. I think he does find interviews all that. But this just speaks to the Billy D. Williams thing hate he's obviously he's he he he spends his days eating chicken wings with celebrities, and all of a sudden, a bunch of he has access to a bunch of the LA adult film community, and and they're just like, Ah, how did this happen?

Because he's kind of I don't want to see he's a nerdy dude. But if he was just a guy working at best Buy, I don't think he's Probably he looks like like he could be like Moby's brother, shorter brother, shorter brother right, So good for him. Yeah, once again, that's the reason to get into that, right to be successful. Well for some Look the guy, the guys, this is what he does. He eats

chicken wings. Uh and then they talk sometimes about you know, beer, bourbon, stuff like that, and then when he leaves, it's on his arm, is uh you know some adult film actress. So like if for people being critical, you sound like you're jealous a little bit maybe, Oh no, Okay, I've heard yeah, I've I've read about this. I've

heard about it, like second hand type stuff. Yeah, from people in the business, which this business, radio business, that there's people like in their I want to say, like in their twenties, like early twenties okay, when they had like they had like you know, they're they're like their nighttime radio show like music radio. There they're getting their first taste of success right right, and young enough to appreciate it. I heard that they partied

and they liked to be promiscuous. I heard that very promiscuous, can you. I heard that we in New York or LA, but not like you know, Middle America. I'm talking places like Omaha and Salt Lake and Salt Lake. Yeah, like Atlanta, Georgia and stuff like that. Dude, a lot of repressed folks around the Salt Lake area. I've heard about it. Yeah, yeah, secondhand. So you know, leave the dude alone, right, I mean just I feel like you're kind of like, ah,

he's a nerd, but he's a nerd and has a podcast. So this is the only It's like, I don't know, probably, but you know, what's your beef. Don't watch this thing if you don't like you're right. They sound jealous. They do, absolutely right. Hold on, I gotta get it. We got some audio. I gotta play this audio. I'll be kicking myself if I don't. I have some questions for any of you moon bat wiggleworm protesters. You like to glue yourself to stuff?

Help me out with this? Do they use them? All right? All right, so that you heard, you kind of got the Palestine gist of it. What they're saying is from water to water. Palestine's Arab. It's the new hot version of from the mountain to the sea. So wait, when they say water to water, they're talking about the ocean and then obviously Jordan or the lake there, and so it's the same thing. It means

this is it. But it's also interesting to say Palestine Palestine is Arab because people when you hear Arab, people think the totality of the Middle East. It's actually much more complex than that. And generally you talked about as you're talking about like Iran and people speak Farsia and and even I'm probably misconscering a little of it, but it's a weird solidarity thing which is not uncommon. But you have to understand that from the water to the water, Palestine is

Arab and Palestine will be free. They were saying from the mountain to sea. Now water and water means the same thing. But that's not what caught my attention. The student organization taught the students to chant in Arabic, and arguably it is. And for the water to water is not new, but it's kind of been replaced where people got criticized for the other one. But actually it's a it's a more extreme variation because it's also not just geographically Israel

they're talking about. And I don't know if you can think of another place which has water on both sides of it. Some would say from a sea to perhaps another sea, and perhaps even a sea that is shining ross. Can you think of anything any other country that would have I don't know, water on both sides of it, a sea on one side and perhaps a sea on the other one. I mean that's an anomaly. Does it exist? I don't know. It should get the Google Earth out and sea.

So that the event. Here's the part though the event described as I have to use the line that they used a quote emergency die in. So this is why they lay down on the ground, pretend they're dead, except they're not doing a very good job because they're chanting like seals. What separates a

die in from an emergency die in? Because inherently, if you're out protesting and you're willing to glue yourself to stuff and block traffic and lay down on the ground and not go to class or whatever, like you've obviously identified what you feel is an emergency situation that needs people to know about it now, right or else? Why are you doing it? So? What is the difference between us a dumb glue yourself and lay on the ground die in protest

to an emergency die in protest? That's the question I have hundreds of students or excuse me, hundreds of people have been martyred or injured by Israeli. A text this is basically uh, from the Palestine Harvard Solidarity Committee who called for the emergency die in. Yeah, I saw some of the grips are not getting their way. Like at Harvard, they kind of didn't get their way, right, they did initially, and then you know, you saw

what happened. I saw that the the the we want a ceasefire resolution Gaza protesters who got told by the Raleigh City Council shockingly, no, we're not going to do this. Uh. They basically went in and decided to make it all about themselves at yesterday's council meetings because they're still upset. But yeah, emergency die in versus a regular old stupid diy in. Don't know the difference. Thought I'd bring it to you. Let's bring in the weather now

with race stagic the weather all right. I got several audience questions. One, will your will your Daytona tailgate be Taylor Swift themed? Uh? Our listeners wants to know, Oh wow, No, what do you mean? Why? That's a fair question? That is that is I mean, that's fair game. If you if you murdered somebody back in the day, and now somebody's dad I'm about I am I allowed to bring up your past history for this this other thing. I'm inquiring. Sure a guy. I didn't

say it was a guy. O my god. Yeah yeah, but he beat a baby to death with a puppy. It's not easy to do. So anyway, the good news here is that I am not trying to distract from your Taylor Swift party. I make this completely want people to concentrate on the murder. This completely changes my image of Rayne the Taylor Swift thing. Yeah, no, I'm this, I'm helping you. I'm like, I

know you think he's the murderer. So yeah, yeah, Luckily I'm not responsible, nor is anybody in my family responsible for any of the activities going on for the Daytonas. So the short answer is no, No Tellers Swiss streak they build. You don't see that enough at NASCAR races, do you. I don't know. I've never yeh, super Bowl, Soccer State, but you know I don't see anybody getting down on turn two. No, not that I'm aware of it. There's a first time for everything. You

know, it is going to be my first race. Oh that's guy. Wait hold on, Ross is telling me that a guy actually did that in what Monte Carlo and then iron Man uh capture. So all right, so that was the thing that happened once. Anyway, I'm sorry, So well, you have fun. I just thought i'd posed the question, so give

us all what okay, what do you got? Yeah, we'll see temperatures near seasonal levels, mid fifties where we should be this time of year, load to mid thirties at night, and I think we're going to be in those mid fifties, maybe some upper fifties as we head through today, but a beautiful looking day tonight in the load to mid thirties, and then warmer and above average temperatures for Thursday and Friday to meet about sixty and sixty five

loads in the forties, maybe some upper thirties, especially triad west and into the mountains. And we'll get another little shot of maybe some rain Friday night. But that's another week system coming through that's gonna bring some chillier air by the weekend, with low to mid fifties partly Sunday Saturday, mostly sunny. Sunday low's near thirty with some twenties around and then on holiday Monday, President's

Day, sunshine near sixty degrees. And as I mentioned earlier, there is rain in the forecast right now for Daytonas, so anybody may be heading on down there, we may see some rainfall for the race. So hope not because I don't really want to. I'm not gonna say I don't want to stick around till Monday, but I've got other plans for the other days in Florida that week open. That doesn't ruin it. It's gonna make the wet T shirt contest over at the beacheesy though. Oh yeah, you know,

I forgot all about that. I can remind my wife he did. Yeah. Hey, whatever you do, don't go over and murder any of the contestants. I promise none of that. All right, Thank you? All right? Thanks and race Stagic, who's got a past. We'll be back hang on Wells morning. We see. Stocks took a hit yesterday after yesterday's inflation report turned out to be worse than expected. Economists say the bigger than expected jump and the consumer price index likely delays the start of interest rate cuts

The grocery delivery giant in Stacart, planning a round of layoffs. Are restructuring at Instacart will eliminate about two hundred and fifty jobs. Hailing a ride may be a challenge at some airports for a couple of hours today.

And it was no Super Bowl audience case, but comedy Central is pleased about the viewership for John Stewart's return as a part time host of The Daily Show. Nine hundred and thirty thousand people tuned in Monday night. It was the show's biggest audience since twenty eighteen. Casey, all right, Jeff,

thank you, sir. We'll chat tomorrow. Sounds good talk to you. Then, all right, there you go, Jeff Bellinger, Bloomberg News. So I think folks are especially as we head into this Valentine's Day. We just had Super Bowl Sunday play. Everything else, your dollar doesn't go as far because evil corporations and nothing else pacts. It's just evil corporations. This is what I'm told. So with that in mind, how are our

elected officials attempting to make it better? Well, if this stage, which includes Barbara Lee, Congresswoman Barbara Lee, Congressman Adam Schiff, Congresswoman Katie Porter, and Steve Garvey. Steve Garvey's a Republican, I guess kyne w He's a California Republican. They were holding a rally about, you know, helping folks who are struggling under the current evil corporate of financial structure. That government has nothing to do with, and it appears the congresswoman has come up with

a plan to make things better. Finally, finally, some lawmakers doing some real work. Go ahead. Congresswoman Lee tell us how to fix it. You're calling for a fifty dollars an hour federal minimum wage. That's seven ross my hearing because when I accidentally stared at the Rachel dolizel Lingerie photo, like my whole brain just haywired. So I think my hearing's impacted. It sounds like it sounds like she's mispronouncing fifteen. No, No, I think she's

saying. I think you're hearing it correctly. She just says she's so, she says fifteen weeks. No, she does not. No, No, she's saying it. She's not saying fifteen. Oh okay, well hold on, let me listen harder. You're calling for a fifty dollars an hour fifteen, right, fifteen is not fifteen. No, it's it's not a one in a five. Oh is it a rapper? She is? No, she's not. No. Oh, okay, so she's she's so, she means fifty dollars an hour. I believe. So, Oh, you're calling

for a fifty dollar an hour federal minimum wage. That's seven times the current national minimum wage of seven twenty five an hour. Can you explain how that would be economically sustainable for small businesses? You have sixty seconds. First, let me say I owned ran a small business for eleven years. I created hundreds of jobs, benefits, retirement benefits, also health care benefits. I know what worker productivity means, and that means that you have to make sure

that your employees are taken care of and have a living wage. In the Bay Area, I believe it was the United Way came out with the report that very recently, one hundred and seven twenty seven thousand dollars for a family of four is just barely enough to I can't. I can't with this woman
