Speaker 3: Fear to the dark.
Speaker 1: We got a lot of dark folks right now. I mean,
Speaker 1: everybody's turning to the dark. Everybody's going for dark meat.
Speaker 1: Every single person is going in that direction. So that's
Speaker 1: the way we'll start. You demanded it. Here we go.
Speaker 1: We go to a warehouse in California where a man
Speaker 1: is a little bit mad at his employer, so he
Speaker 1: burnt the entire warehouse down.
Speaker 3: How's that for dark.
Speaker 1: Let's listen in as he filmed himself burning the warehouse down.
Speaker 3: Here we go. So it's a huge warehouse.
Speaker 1: In a place called Ontario, California, and I'm trying to
Speaker 1: look at what he's burning here. It looked like paper
Speaker 1: towels or toilet paper or toilet papers quick scott toilet.
Speaker 3: Paper, I mean the probably both.
Speaker 5: You would think that the paper industries kind of dabble
Speaker 5: in both fields, but I think Scott's is the.
Speaker 3: Usually toilet paper.
Speaker 1: Also, if there is a warehouse full of toilet papers
Speaker 1: still today in twenty twenty six, it's worth one billion dollars,
Speaker 1: one billion dollars, and this guy lights the whole place
Speaker 1: on fire and films himself. Now, for those you who
Speaker 1: are watching on YouTube, you could see on the right
Speaker 1: what happened to this warehouse. It was completely burned to
Speaker 1: the ground. It's a it's an Amazon sized warehouse. Like
Speaker 1: you're on one side and you can't see the other
Speaker 1: that's how big this warehouse.
Speaker 3: Scott makes both, so it could be either how can
Speaker 3: you make both of them?
Speaker 1: Yeah, well, whatever they are, they're they're inflames that.
Speaker 3: Fire in the warehouse. Should have paid us enough to
Speaker 3: you know, we may not get paid enough.
Speaker 1: To but these bitches dirt cheap matches are a lighter?
Speaker 3: Do was pay us enough to live? All you had
Speaker 3: to do was pay us enough to live. It sounds
Speaker 3: like the guy can't live us enough to live.
Speaker 1: All he shows the aisles burning of all of these,
Speaker 1: like these rows and rows of stuff in this factory
Speaker 1: that he's lit on fire, and he said, you couldn't
Speaker 1: pay us enough to effing live, And then these are
Speaker 1: cheap and he showed like a lighter of matches or
Speaker 1: something and he lit it all on fire and burned
Speaker 1: it all down.
Speaker 3: And there'll be people who are.
Speaker 1: Like, he's a true class hero. This guy is gonna
Speaker 1: be your The money you were making is the least
Speaker 1: of your worries.
Speaker 3: Yeah, you do.
Speaker 1: And you don't have to worry about your salary pal
Speaker 1: unless you get thrown a hail Mary here. You're probably
Speaker 1: the Scott's toilet paper. People are probably going to take
Speaker 1: you down somebody on twitch has asked for a raise.
Speaker 1: My dude, I have a feeling he might have and
Speaker 1: he might have been turned down, and so he burned.
Speaker 3: The whole warehouse.
Speaker 5: This guy did this without asking for the raise. Then
Speaker 5: you know we we have some problems. We locked this
Speaker 5: guy up.
Speaker 3: For even longer.
Speaker 1: Everybody at the warehouse should get raised the next day, though,
Speaker 1: just like.
Speaker 2: I imagine, Well, they have to have.
Speaker 1: To pick up the mess, so he's got to throw
Speaker 1: a little extra at them. But so weird, and the
Speaker 1: way he filmed himself there.
Speaker 3: Fire in the.
Speaker 1: Warehouse should have paid us enough to live.
Speaker 3: You know, we may not get paid enough to live,
Speaker 3: but these bitches dirt cheap to a zippo.
Speaker 1: You to do was pay us enough to live. Oh yeah,
Speaker 1: all you had to do was pay us enough live.
Speaker 1: I wonder how much you wanted. Like, because, Sean, are you.
Speaker 3: Listening to the mind? Fine?
Speaker 1: How much is enough to live?
Speaker 3: All right?
Speaker 1: Like what if what if he went in the day
Speaker 1: before with some manager and the manager is like, hey,
Speaker 1: what can I get you?
Speaker 3: And he goes, I need enough to live and he.
Speaker 1: Goes, how much is that? And the guy goes, I
Speaker 1: want a fifty percent raise and then they go, no,
Speaker 1: we're gonna have to turn that down. And now like
Speaker 1: the manager's manager is going, man, all.
Speaker 3: You have to do.
Speaker 1: This could have saved us a lot of heartache here.
Speaker 1: If you just got a little bit of live, Dolly
Speaker 1: needed was enough to live. Okay, did anybody die fighting this?
Speaker 1: I don't know. I don't I don't assume. So somebody
Speaker 1: else says this is what Seawn is going to do,
Speaker 1: and iHeart media in two weeks.
Speaker 3: Don't put that out there.
Speaker 1: Okay, I'm not burning anything down, and I want a
Speaker 1: lot more than enough to live. This guy, I only
Speaker 1: wanted enough to live. I told you it was a
Speaker 1: dark turn, and you chose it this morning to start
Speaker 1: us off. Do you want to see what was behind
Speaker 1: the light or do we just move on because that
Speaker 1: was the choice you made.
Speaker 6: Well, and I'm curious if we've got the time, all
Speaker 6: chats up for it.
Speaker 1: I'll just I'll tell you and then I won't play
Speaker 1: it for you. The light direct gonna happen if it's
Speaker 1: like he pulled both of them, he pulled them for
Speaker 1: the show. He's gonna play them both every time.
Speaker 7: He's like, yeah, why do you pick the dark first man.
Speaker 7: So we're gonna wash it out with some light. Fine,
Speaker 7: I'll play the light one. We'll go down the light path.
Speaker 7: This was pretty fun, I thought, And.
Speaker 1: They said, wriggly Field has released a video of their
Speaker 1: hot dog vendors.
Speaker 3: This is much more light than the darkness. Is so
Speaker 3: incredibly different.
Speaker 1: All you had to do was pay us a living wage.
Speaker 1: And the fire is burning around him, and these guys
Speaker 1: are showing you their best hot dog call. They're the
Speaker 1: field vendors. They're very good at what they do. And
Speaker 1: here's how they call for them. Hot dogs, hot.

Speaker 1: Older guy, had a nice little note that he was
Speaker 1: hitting there on the light side for us. Here and

Speaker 1: I don't know how all of them, which you're not
Speaker 1: supposed to do. That's the ivy, you're not supposed to
Speaker 1: touch it. They're doing this in front of the ivy
Speaker 1: at regular Field in Chicago with the Cubs play. And
Speaker 1: when they're doing this, I just think afterwards, imagine how
Speaker 1: long does a baseball game take? Nine innings has got
Speaker 1: to be three hours or something pretty long.
Speaker 3: It's you're out there going dog man, dog man. I
Speaker 3: might have done. He's probably done by the eighth inning,
Speaker 3: maybe seventh.
Speaker 1: Oh my god, I would be done, Euld cut it off.
Speaker 1: I would just have a little sign or something. But
Speaker 1: you'll never know what that sounds like, because that was
Speaker 1: a clip that nobody picked for, you know, choose your
Speaker 1: own adventure to start things off here today on the show,
Speaker 1: so I could turn yeah, turn it back on. That
Speaker 1: bar was not broadcast for anybody. Before we get into
Speaker 1: your emails, a really good take here, okay, a really
Speaker 1: good take.
Speaker 3: Let's frame this one.
Speaker 1: Let's put this one up on the hallways of iHeartMedia
Speaker 1: today if we can the real reason.
Speaker 3: To stop dropping your zins in the urinal sign.
Speaker 1: Yeah, was put it up right next to that warning
Speaker 1: in the bathroom at iHeartRadio. And I'll tell you, let's
Speaker 1: just hang this up somewhere. Two point two million views.
Speaker 1: Oil had gone down after this very shaky truce with
Speaker 1: Iran went through yesterday, and this guy said, seventy one
Speaker 1: dollars a barrel. Gas stations better be dropping those prices
Speaker 1: as fast as.
Speaker 3: They raise them.
Speaker 1: Just hang out for that one, folks, all right, just
Speaker 1: do you embrace yourself and hang out for for that
Speaker 1: because you go up quite fast at the gas station.
Speaker 1: But now when we got things even out a little
Speaker 1: bit and the gas per barrel, oil per barrel goes
Speaker 1: down to like seventy one dollars, watch those pumps and
Speaker 1: see if they react going down the same speed they
Speaker 1: did going up. I think you'll find that it doesn't
Speaker 1: work out that way. And that's what Chad was talking about.
Speaker 1: Seventy one dollars a barrel. Gas stations better be dropping
Speaker 1: those prices as fast as they raise them. What do
Speaker 1: you think? Hit us up with your feedback today? Here
Speaker 1: we go some emails to kick us off. Jesse emails
Speaker 1: the show tips at the news Junkie dot com. Hi guys,
Speaker 1: rather new listener here, He says, I was listening to
Speaker 1: the story about the dog honking the horn well locked
Speaker 1: in the car.
Speaker 3: This was yesterday.
Speaker 1: Where was that dog Ireland or something? Colarne Colarney Eiler, Ireland.
Speaker 1: The dog was locked in the car and somebody filmed them,
Speaker 1: and the dog was honking the horn the whole time
Speaker 1: for his owners to come back.
Speaker 3: He says.
Speaker 1: They used to work for a company that performed emergency
Speaker 1: roadside assistance in South Florida. We worked directly with the
Speaker 1: local police and fire rescue simply due to the number
Speaker 1: of children and animals that we get locked.
Speaker 3: In the car.
Speaker 1: Back in twenty ten, we would perform at least one
Speaker 1: week one a week in Broward County alone, with Florida
Speaker 1: being Florida. If you ever come across a vehicle that
Speaker 1: needs emergency entrance to it's always highly suggested to puncture
Speaker 1: or remove the windshield, as insurance easily replaces that. With
Speaker 1: all these new vehicles becoming smarter and smarter, I'd like
Speaker 1: to think the safety features have increased when it comes
Speaker 1: to things like this.
Speaker 3: Stay gold.
Speaker 1: Listening to you always makes my day, says Jesse. Thank
Speaker 1: you for the email, Jess.
Speaker 3: I don't know.
Speaker 5: I think a lot of the people who are about
Speaker 5: saving the dog or the baby that is stuck in
Speaker 5: the car, they at the moment don't usually think about,
Speaker 5: you know, what would be easiest for the car owner
Speaker 5: to replace as I am saving this, especially a dog.
Speaker 1: Yeah, exactly, And I don't care, like, oh, it's easier
Speaker 1: for them to replace the wind shield, Okay, cool. Then
Speaker 1: I'll go with both the side windows. You know, I
Speaker 1: does it have one of those little those little like
Speaker 1: triangle corner windows, because that seems like the most difficult
Speaker 1: in there. I'll smash that one out first and then go, oh,
Speaker 1: we can't get my st then you smash the other
Speaker 1: window for good measure.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm with you on that.
Speaker 1: One tips of the neews junkie dot Com Josh emails
Speaker 1: about the hookers in Hopetown.
Speaker 3: If you miss this, I have big updates.
Speaker 1: Coming up at the top of the hour about this
Speaker 1: Bahamas possibly murder mystery where a woman went quote unquote overboard.
Speaker 1: Josh says, this law probably isn't a thing in the Bahamas,
Speaker 1: but Florida law and federal law requires operators of vessels
Speaker 1: under twenty six feet, and they were in an eight
Speaker 1: foot dinghy when she fell overboard. Vessels at are twenty
Speaker 1: six feet are supposed to wear an engine cutoffs, which
Speaker 1: e Coos lanyard went traveling on plane or above displacement speed.
Speaker 1: I was once in the Florida Keys twenty miles out,
Speaker 1: not wearing my lanyard, and I fell out of the
Speaker 1: boat and barely grabbed the ladder as my boat was
Speaker 1: riding away.
Speaker 2: Oh, my job of terrifying.
Speaker 3: Should always wear it, says Josh.
Speaker 5: Here's another terrifying part, Like I've had a mishap like
Speaker 5: that on a jet ski being on a lake, like
Speaker 5: a small lake that's not super accessible.
Speaker 3: Probably only the people that lived on it were able
Speaker 3: to use it.
Speaker 5: However, if you're in the Keys and your boat is
Speaker 5: moving and you fall off and you don't have that
Speaker 5: cut off, depending on which way your boat boat is pointed,
Speaker 5: it could just be going into the ocean to the
Speaker 5: deep blue sea.
Speaker 2: Baby, you destroy it.
Speaker 1: I don't know why, though, Sometimes when I see that happen,
Speaker 1: they start going in circles because because they turn the
Speaker 1: wheel when they jump off or whatever, they fall off
Speaker 1: or something. Either they already had their hands on the
Speaker 1: wheel and as part of your like you know, not
Speaker 1: so dainty self removal from the boat, you kind of
Speaker 1: hit the whel So that is pretty common, I think
Speaker 1: for the thing to go in circles, But I mean,
Speaker 1: if it doesn't, you are.
Speaker 3: I'll tell you selfish of me.
Speaker 1: I would be most worried if I'm popping off a
Speaker 1: boat and going overboard of that engine. If I ended
Speaker 1: up underneath the boat at all, and that the other
Speaker 1: side of that motor just grabbing me would be my
Speaker 1: real nightmare scenario. But I guess there's lots of things
Speaker 1: to worry about, including this. Justin emails the show tips
Speaker 1: at the news Junkie dot com. Hey, it's Justin from
Speaker 1: West Palm Beach.
Speaker 3: Hi Justin.
Speaker 1: Justin says ideal in yachting.
Speaker 3: Nice. I don't know what went on.
Speaker 1: With this boat accident in the Bahamas, but it sounds
Speaker 1: like the couple do like to drink and went on
Speaker 1: the island to do so and have fun on a
Speaker 1: Saturday night. And after drinking, there's been many times when
Speaker 1: I say it's gonna be fine and I get home
Speaker 1: I assume they thought the same and did so. If
Speaker 1: he is as big of a drinker as the daughter says,
Speaker 1: his wife probably said I got this. You just sit
Speaker 1: tight and I'll drive Saturday down here in Florida. We
Speaker 1: knew storms were coming. They may have thought they were okay.
Speaker 1: This totally could be accidental, but maybe not. I certainly
Speaker 1: hope not. If there's a life insurance policy, well that
Speaker 1: might be a little more sauce, but it actually sounds
Speaker 1: legit to me. I know we as listeners like to assume,
Speaker 1: but being a drinker that has been in situations like
Speaker 1: that in my younger days, I could see this happening.
Speaker 1: He finishes, wins create high waves and in a small
Speaker 1: dinghy like that, you have to have an extremely bumpy ride,
Speaker 1: especially in open water.
Speaker 3: Just saying my thoughts.
Speaker 1: Love the show, hope I heart comes to their senses
Speaker 1: and keeps you on board. Don't want to go day
Speaker 1: to day in the future without being able to listen
Speaker 1: to the number.
Speaker 3: One rated show the news.
Speaker 1: Junkie Wiggle Wiggle pop up says, justin thank you, justin
Speaker 1: appreciate that for sure. I mean, there are some things
Speaker 1: that are that are on the side of this guy
Speaker 1: whose wife is missing in the Bahamas. All lay out
Speaker 1: the case in his defense at the top of the hour,
Speaker 1: and then all lay out the case as I see
Speaker 1: it against him. We'll bring both of those to the forefront.
Speaker 1: More emails to get into. But when we come back,
Speaker 1: you thought the whole crew ringe fast food ceo moment
Speaker 1: was over.
Speaker 3: Oh boy, do.
Speaker 1: I have an update for you, and I'll play it
Speaker 1: for you. That is coming up next on the news Junkie.
Speaker 1: You thought we were done with all these cringe fast
Speaker 1: food CEOs, but alas we are not. I've got an
Speaker 1: update for you on this.
Speaker 3: This was the story about it.
Speaker 1: Started, I think, but it's so it got to be
Speaker 1: such a mess it's hard to remember where it started.
Speaker 1: I think it was started by the CEO of McDonald's,
Speaker 1: Chris Kempzinski, who took a bite of the new burger
Speaker 1: that they had and his bite was like a barely bite.
Speaker 2: He just touched his lips essentially, and he's like, m delicious.
Speaker 1: He took a nibble like one fifth of the size
Speaker 1: of what Sabrina would take even for a bite.
Speaker 5: I think before the Chris guy from McDonald's did it,
Speaker 5: the burger king CEO had done that fake here's my
Speaker 5: cell phone number. I'm gonna listen to your ideas. That's true,
Speaker 5: But it really didn't start amping up until the McDonald's
Speaker 5: CEO did the burger tasting, and then the burger king
Speaker 5: guy he jumped in, and then brands we had completely
Speaker 5: forgotten about, like a NW root beer they were jumping in.
Speaker 3: There was a whole thing.
Speaker 1: Everybody wanted some attention, all these fast food places. And
Speaker 1: then by the time it ended, the CEOs were like,
Speaker 1: I'm Barney Hucklebee from Hucklebee's Burgers, Incorporated. And who were you, Barney?
Speaker 1: What the hell? I know you just told me, but
Speaker 1: I still don't know Sea Lan's right. It started with
Speaker 1: the burger kin guy pretending like he gave away his
Speaker 1: cell phone numbers so we could call him, and then
Speaker 1: we called him and he was lying, and then the
Speaker 1: McDonald's CEO took that tiny little burger bite. And now
Speaker 1: Chris comes in is back and let me tell you, buddy,
Speaker 1: they hoodwinked your ass, all right.
Speaker 3: They were doing an interview with him.
Speaker 1: I think it was like the Wall Street Journal or something,
Speaker 1: and they were doing an interview with the McDonald's leader
Speaker 1: and they said, well, take a bite of this chicken nugget.
Speaker 3: And you should have known my guy. Hey, I gotta
Speaker 3: be careful here.
Speaker 1: Last time I took a bite of something, the company exploded.
Speaker 1: I made a mistake with the big Arch Deluxe Superburger
Speaker 1: or whatever it is. I gotta be careful. But here
Speaker 1: we go again. He's hanging out in the test kitchen
Speaker 1: with him, and they go, take a bite of the
Speaker 1: nug All you have to do is get a little
Speaker 1: nug bite here and totally do it as normal as
Speaker 1: you possibly can.
Speaker 3: And the Wall Street Journal got him again.
Speaker 1: Here is nice for somebody to eat on camera.
Speaker 8: Well, i'd say the biggest thing is just dive right in.
Speaker 8: So I'm looking forward to taking a nice bite out
Speaker 8: this chicken nugget.
Speaker 1: Yeah, totally normal the way you said that.
Speaker 2: Pal, and the bite still just corner.
Speaker 9: Oh I go, he goes, I'm looking forward to taking
Speaker 9: a bite out of this chicken nugget that I'm looking
Speaker 9: at here right Yeah, who.
Speaker 1: Talks like this? Here's the sin, the real sin following.
Speaker 8: Eat on camera. Well, I'd say the biggest thing is
Speaker 8: just dive right in. So I'm looking forward to taking
Speaker 8: a nice bite out this chicken nugget, and he takes.
Speaker 1: A little child sized bite out of the end of
Speaker 1: a chicken nugget. And I will tell you right now,
Speaker 1: all right with God watching, Okay, fire this man.
Speaker 3: Fire this man.
Speaker 1: What kind of animal doesn't one bite a McDonald's chicken nugget?
Speaker 1: What kind of untrustworthy goon behind the scenes? What is
Speaker 1: this man's internet history full of? What is this man
Speaker 1: actually up to?
Speaker 2: I feel like he doesn't eat.
Speaker 6: I feel like someone plugs him into something and that
Speaker 6: gives him his nutrients for the day. Because what he did.
Speaker 6: Sometimes you could do two bytes in a nugget. You've
Speaker 6: dipped it. Now you get that second half. The first
Speaker 6: guy was on the video hit it properly. He just
Speaker 6: made that into fourteen bytes in one nugget.
Speaker 3: It's a good nibble of this thing.
Speaker 1: And you're right, Zuckerberg one point zero vibes here like, well,
Speaker 1: I am a human and I still am a human
Speaker 1: and this guy takes a little tiny nibble out of
Speaker 1: a nugget. There are I don't want to get this wrong.
Speaker 1: The McDonald's people will come after me. What ceiling? How
Speaker 1: many different shapes and nuggets are there?
Speaker 3: Three?
Speaker 1: Oh four four three four. There's like a boot, there's
Speaker 1: there's a couple other one. There's only a couple of them.
Speaker 1: One thing is for sure. You take all of them.
Speaker 1: You put them in your mouth as you would a pill.
Speaker 5: Four to stake the shape, the ball of the boot,
Speaker 5: the bow tie or some call it the bone, and
Speaker 5: the belt.
Speaker 3: Ball, the boot, butt, the belt whatever.
Speaker 1: What all those were, all of those big old dangle
Speaker 1: they you put them in your mouth, you eat them.
Speaker 1: You're the CEO of McDonald's and you're acting like you're
Speaker 1: alert to the menu item, Sarah, what is wrong with you?
Speaker 5: Also, he didn't call it a McNugget, which is its
Speaker 5: proper name.
Speaker 1: Oh did he's just say nugget? He said this chicken nugget. Yeah,
Speaker 1: the branding should be chicken McNugget. They've spent about a
Speaker 1: trillion dollars on that. Kevin says, lizard people do not
Speaker 1: eat people food. If leg it's his first day on earth.
Speaker 1: Every time this guy eats on camera, and all you
Speaker 1: have to do is eat a nug And I'm not
Speaker 1: gonna lie to you. As old as I might get
Speaker 1: and as much as I might like nice fancy food,
Speaker 1: sometimes McDonald's chicken nuggets are good. There ain't nothing wrong.
Speaker 1: They have perfected a couple of things on that menu
Speaker 1: because they've made them for what sixty years, seventy years,
Speaker 1: however long I've been making those things that McDonald's, and
Speaker 1: some of them, like the Big Mac or the quarter
Speaker 1: pounder or the chicken McNuggets, they have perfected. You take
Speaker 1: that McNugget and you put it in your mouth and
Speaker 1: you eat it in one go, and if you don't,
Speaker 1: you should be fired from the company immediately. Were a
Speaker 1: bad representative. And what the hell is even this? I say,
Speaker 1: if you're eating on camera, yeah, two bites? Why because
Speaker 1: because the camera is gonna catch you what looking like
Speaker 1: a like an animal eating.
Speaker 3: In one bite. Maybe he's trying to talk while he
Speaker 3: does this. They slowed him down. He's gonna be like
Speaker 3: this chicken nugget, it's, oh.
Speaker 2: My god, I don't understand.
Speaker 1: What he said. So weird. The journalists afterwards just points
Speaker 1: out the obviously goes it's a little weird to watch
Speaker 1: each other eat, and he's like, hold it right, it's a.
Speaker 3: Little weird to watch each other eat. Yeah, Well, imagine
Speaker 3: how I felt.
Speaker 1: Yeah, imagine how I felt all you had to do
Speaker 1: was just take a big bite, little tiny little.
Speaker 2: Did someone tell him the first one didn't go so well.
Speaker 1: I think he is not in touch with human media.
Speaker 1: I think that he is not actually familiar with what's
Speaker 1: happening on planet Earth, and he just plugs himself in
Speaker 1: each it's a new download. This is not going to
Speaker 1: be a good download day after this. Chris Kempsensky over
Speaker 1: at McDonald's, I mean, I has to loot your product,
Speaker 1: but you got to get on board a little bit more.
Speaker 3: You got to do things.
Speaker 1: Right, like the folks perhaps over at NASA, who are
Speaker 1: just amazing, amazing, amazing work all the way around with NASA.
Speaker 1: I did find for the Artemis two group, and all
Speaker 1: these just splendid, even I hesitate to say it, even
Speaker 1: the Canadian I find all of these these astronauts to
Speaker 1: be splendid, great representatives of all space programs, of the
Speaker 1: United States of America, Canada, and of the entire world
Speaker 1: really just all of humanity. And now I have the
Speaker 1: quote from this particular mission. You know, they keep trying
Speaker 1: to make stuff quotable.
Speaker 3: When they go around.
Speaker 1: The Moon, they're like only the entire time, Yeah, They're like,
Speaker 1: you're going around the dark side of the moon. What
Speaker 1: do you have to say? And they go, the moon
Speaker 1: may have a dark side, but the Earth is all
Speaker 1: bright from here or whatever they come up with, and
Speaker 1: you know they're right down somewhere.
Speaker 5: We're gonna we're gonna take the burn that you know
Speaker 5: points us at the moon. Not because we choose the moon,
Speaker 5: but because we choose I'm.
Speaker 3: Like, what do you mean.
Speaker 1: Everything I should choose the moon.
Speaker 3: Wait what but you don't have to have.
Speaker 5: A little, you know, a little inspiring chicken noodle soup
Speaker 5: for the for the spaceman's soul speech before you hit
Speaker 5: every button.
Speaker 1: To Sabrina's point about the flat Earth comment, I would
Speaker 1: it wouldn't it be just something if we had an
Speaker 1: astronaut that was a troll and they did go up there,
Speaker 1: they were like, oh my god, the flat Earth people
Speaker 1: were right.
Speaker 2: I can see then we're seeing ships just.
Speaker 1: A pancake. It is flat as a pancake up here.
Speaker 2: You see Jeffrey Epstein from here too.
Speaker 1: It's you could still you could have so many space
Speaker 1: memes if you were a memester in space, all a
Speaker 1: memester in space? What a what a time to be alive.
Speaker 1: Here's my favorite quote. Whole mission, whole damn thing. I've
Speaker 1: thought about this for a while. I sat there and
Speaker 1: for the first time in maybe a year, somebody said
Speaker 1: something that I ruminated with.
Speaker 3: I sat there and I just I.
Speaker 1: Indulged myself in the moment thinking about what this guy
Speaker 1: had just said in space on a spacewalk, listening.
Speaker 3: On a spacewalk.
Speaker 1: Yeah, he's out there, he's moving around.
Speaker 3: There's no space walk sounds.
Speaker 1: It's not a spacewalk. He's working. He's working on something.
Speaker 1: This is a different time when he was on a spacewalk.
Speaker 1: The visual is of a different time when he was
Speaker 1: on a spacewalk. His quote is this Are you ready?
Speaker 1: He says while space walking. That's why I told you
Speaker 1: about the spacewalk part. This was a previous time that
Speaker 1: he was in space.
Speaker 3: Oh, there's read Wiseman.
Speaker 1: This is Reid Wiseman, Artemis two astronaut, and here's the
Speaker 1: quote while space walking.
Speaker 3: I realize something.
Speaker 1: I used to think I was scared of heights, but
Speaker 1: now I know I was just scared of gravity. Let
Speaker 1: it think in all right, Let it think.
Speaker 2: In a little bit of gravity.
Speaker 1: Buddy.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I used to think.
Speaker 1: I used to think I was scared of heights, but
Speaker 1: now I know I was just scared of gravity. Think
Speaker 1: about that a little bit I thought of it. I
Speaker 1: was like, wow, okay, I mean, I don't care about
Speaker 1: being up high somewhere. I care about the effect of
Speaker 1: gravity smashing my carcass to the ground and ending it
Speaker 1: all for me. It's it's a thinker. It's a thinker
Speaker 1: and not a thinker at the same time. Actually, which
Speaker 1: I really have to stay much more about it. That
Speaker 1: makes sense. It's well, I mean, but just think about it.
Speaker 1: Just think about it a little while space walking. I
Speaker 1: realize something. I used to think I was scared of heights,
Speaker 1: but now I know I was just scared of gravity.
Speaker 10: Huh.
Speaker 1: All right, this is big. Think about that. Let it
Speaker 1: punctuate your day in some way. That is read wiseman
Speaker 1: who's not spacewalking on this go round for Artemis two,
Speaker 1: but is up there moonwalking, if you will, doing his
Speaker 1: thing out there with these other Nastra NASA astronauts.
Speaker 3: Excuse me.

Speaker 1: Sometimes people get triggered when I say est when it's
Speaker 1: not technically eest ye it's the time of year. Oh
Speaker 1: do you get triggered by that too?
Speaker 3: I know you're doing it right.
Speaker 1: No. Now I'm looking at the paper and I just
Speaker 1: remember I've I get emails.
Speaker 3: Well.
Speaker 1: People will be so particular about my language, and it's
Speaker 1: crazy because I'm pretty particular about language I know. That's
Speaker 1: why I actually I focus on trying to communicate and
Speaker 1: say things the correct way and try to make things
Speaker 1: easier to understand. And I do take an interest in communication.
Speaker 1: And then people will be like Sean, you said, Eastern
Speaker 1: Standard time and technically this time of year, we're edt
Speaker 1: not est and okay, all right, sure it's going to
Speaker 1: be at eight pm. I'll just stop there eight pm
Speaker 1: on the East coast Friday, at eight pm, those astronauts
Speaker 1: are going to be headed home for splashdown off the
Speaker 1: coast of San Diego, Wales. Vagina is what that means,
Speaker 1: as everybody famously knows. It was the first time hearing
Speaker 1: from the team since they're historical Lunar fly by saw
Speaker 1: them travel of birth.
Speaker 3: They said, we have to get back.
Speaker 1: There's so much data that you've already seen, but all
Speaker 1: the good stuff is coming back with us. We have
Speaker 1: so many pictures, we have so many more stories. They
Speaker 1: are on their way in. They are bracing themselves as
Speaker 1: I've told you, I told you yesterday about this for
Speaker 1: the most dangerous task yet, which is re entry. After
Speaker 1: this ten day mission, this capsule will plunge back through
Speaker 1: the atmosphere. They will be going twenty five thousand miles
Speaker 1: per hour. They go about that for a moment, then
Speaker 1: they come back. They will be going twenty five thousand miles.
Speaker 3: Per hour, and they will be in a.
Speaker 1: Capsule, the orion capsule that is five thousand degrees because
Speaker 1: of the entry friction and heat that is forming around
Speaker 1: the vehicle. Twenty five thousand miles per hour, five thousand
Speaker 1: degrees bad news, good news, bad news. It's incredibly dangerous.
Speaker 1: The heat shield is a problem area. They were worried
Speaker 1: about the heat shield on this anyways, and that is
Speaker 1: the most dangerous part the re entry. The good news.
Speaker 1: If something happens, you ain't gonna last but one millisecond.
Speaker 3: You will not You're not.
Speaker 1: Gonna feel it. If there is a way to go,
Speaker 1: it's probably the way to go. It's probably better than
Speaker 1: any other method humans have made up to take each
Speaker 1: other out. You are just evaporating at twenty five thousand
Speaker 1: miles an hour and five thousand degrees fahrenheit. But let
Speaker 1: us know what you think. Send a dispatch over at
Speaker 1: the news junkie dot com. When we come back, we'll
Speaker 1: get to the update. Oh we got we gotta that'll
Speaker 1: be at the top of the hour. Actually the top
Speaker 1: of the hour will have the update on this Bahamas
Speaker 1: murder mystery, the hookers in Hopetown, the story there.
Speaker 3: If you haven't heard it.
Speaker 1: I'll get you all caught up and I'll give you
Speaker 1: the case four and against this guy so far. When
Speaker 1: we come back, we have to hit on this.
Speaker 3: Michael J.
Speaker 1: Fox is alive. Everybody, CNN is trying to kill Michael J.
Speaker 3: Fox.
Speaker 1: No, he's coming out now and fighting back against CNN.
Speaker 3: I'll tell you what's happened.
Speaker 1: If you miss this is coming up next in the
Speaker 1: news chunk Key, Welcome into the world's most viral newsroom
Speaker 1: once more, and I'm here to tell you today, friend
Speaker 1: that Michael J. Fox is not dead. He is alive,
Speaker 1: and he is not dead, and CNN tried to kill
Speaker 1: him off.
Speaker 3: I do not know why. I mean, I think what.
Speaker 1: They did was they made one of these mistakes. We've
Speaker 1: talked on the show before about how at most big
Speaker 1: media outlets they prepare for celebrities to die ahead of time,
Speaker 1: and they write their O bits and they keep O
Speaker 1: bits on fire.
Speaker 3: Ile.
Speaker 1: This may sound weird to you, it may not, but
Speaker 1: right now at the New York Times they won thousand
Speaker 1: percent have an obituary ready for big characters like Trump,
Speaker 1: like they won thousand percent have a Trump obituary written
Speaker 1: and ready to go, right, And if people saw it,
Speaker 1: they'd be like the New York Times is over there
Speaker 1: wishing that Trump died. Well, some of them probably are.
Speaker 1: In fact, a lot of them at the New York
Speaker 1: Times probably are.
Speaker 3: But I mean they probably read it a lot out
Speaker 3: loud just to practice.
Speaker 1: But every time I get down, I just go the
Speaker 1: Trump a bit.
Speaker 5: But at the same time, they also definitely have a
Speaker 5: Biden obituary ready.
Speaker 1: Yes, yes, and Obama a bit your obituary everybody, all
Speaker 1: the people that you can think of, everybody in Hollywood
Speaker 1: that's on death story, who's the one, Who's who's up next?
Speaker 3: Oh?
Speaker 2: To die?
Speaker 1: The old he's a director now and he's like a
Speaker 1: million years old old. He was in a movie not
Speaker 1: that long ago. He partnered himself up with a woman
Speaker 1: that was way too young. But I think he's like
Speaker 1: ninety something.
Speaker 10: Was the one that did Meg No no, no, no.
Speaker 1: No, I don't believe. So somebody will know this in chat.
Speaker 1: Who I'm talking about?
Speaker 7: Boy?
Speaker 1: He's an actor to Clinton, Clint Eastwood. Clint Eastwood is
Speaker 1: who I'm talking.
Speaker 3: I thought he was dead. No, no, No, He's still alive.
Speaker 1: Isn't he double chi Yeah, Clint Eastwood's alive.
Speaker 2: I'm pretty sure he is alive.
Speaker 3: Who was thinking, who is the NRA guy, the big
Speaker 3: NRA guy. I don't know. Charlton Heston.
Speaker 1: Charlton Heston's dead.
Speaker 3: Ye was he the big NRA guy? He may have
Speaker 3: been Clinton.
Speaker 1: Clint Eastwood is director, actor extraordinaire and gonna die very soon.
Speaker 1: And I don't say that to take the light in this.
Speaker 1: I just said that to be honest and trust me.
Speaker 1: The New York Times, the CNN, all these places. Yeah,
Speaker 1: obituary is ready for these people.
Speaker 5: Charlton Heston I always thought of because he had the
Speaker 5: big NRA thing and his big slogan was from my
Speaker 5: hold dead hands. Yeah, and so some of the headlines
Speaker 5: when he died were like, you can finally have Charlton
Speaker 5: Heston's gun monsters.
Speaker 3: But they were ready for that. They were ready. Well,
Speaker 3: Michael J.
Speaker 1: Fox, he's got some health issues Parkinson's and all the rest,
Speaker 1: but he's okay.
Speaker 3: He's still alive.
Speaker 1: And CNN made a bit of a mistake here's the
Speaker 1: Variety article on this, and Variety says, Michael J. Fox
Speaker 1: speaks out after CNN sparks death scare. How do you
Speaker 1: react when you turn on the TV and CNN is
Speaker 1: reporting your death? It says Michael J. Fox says he's
Speaker 1: alive and well. The Back to the Future icon assured
Speaker 1: fans on threads, So that's where he's posting.
Speaker 3: You want to see his post. Do you think that
Speaker 3: you would wonder for a second if they were right
Speaker 3: like this? Yeah?
Speaker 5: If you know, like if you if it was you
Speaker 5: and they were reporting your death, would you would you
Speaker 5: would you think?
Speaker 3: Is this how purgatory works?
Speaker 1: Yeah? I would very quickly pinch a couple of people.
Speaker 1: See if I get a reaction, make sure that I
Speaker 1: was still alive and with everybody.
Speaker 3: But Michael J.
Speaker 1: Fox responded. Here's his Threads post he's posting over there.
Speaker 1: How do you react when you turn on the TV
Speaker 1: and CNN is reporting your death? Do you a switch
Speaker 1: to MSNBC or whatever they're calling themselves these days?
Speaker 3: B poor scolding?
Speaker 1: Hot water on your lap If it hurts your fine,
Speaker 1: see call your wife, Hopefully she's concerned but reassuring. Do
Speaker 1: you relax they do this once every year or e
Speaker 1: ask yourself, WTF. I thought the world was ending, but
Speaker 1: apparently it's just me and I'm okay.
Speaker 3: Love Mike, He says, man zero typost too.
Speaker 1: You think he post does himself.
Speaker 3: You think Michael J.
Speaker 1: Fox is on threads and he's he's doing this himself,
Speaker 1: because that is fairly impressive.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 1: So he comes out and says I'm not dead after
Speaker 1: CNN sparked a desk care by releasing a video on
Speaker 1: its content platforms.
Speaker 3: The title of the video just to.
Speaker 1: Go to what I was telling you, I mean, I'm
Speaker 1: telling you the truth here. The title of the video
Speaker 1: that CNN released was called remembering the Life of Michael J.
Speaker 3: Fox.
Speaker 1: And you gotta be careful with this stuff they put out,
Speaker 1: remembering the Life of Michael J.
Speaker 3: Fox.
Speaker 2: Uncomfortable.
Speaker 5: That's not a big move. I know he's got his issues,
Speaker 5: but he is only sixty four. Yeah, and he just
Speaker 5: was at an event. I'll bring that to you sis
Speaker 5: on TV.
Speaker 6: Was there another Michael not the famous that passed and
Speaker 6: they just like accidentally clicked Michael J.
Speaker 1: Fox. It could have been or it could have just
Speaker 1: been there moving things around and they accidentally put the
Speaker 1: wrong thing in there, and this stuff is all all
Speaker 1: all written out before. But Fox his message Michael J. Fox,
Speaker 1: not Fox News of Fox's message comes after CNN shared
Speaker 1: a video titled remembering the Life of actor Michael J.
Speaker 3: Fox on Wednesday.
Speaker 1: It was also posted on sites where the network's content
Speaker 1: is distributed, like Entertainment Weekly and others. CNN spokesperson said
Speaker 1: in a statement, the package was published in error. We
Speaker 1: have removed it from our platforms and send our apologies.
Speaker 3: To Michael J. Fox and his family.
Speaker 1: The eclipic question was interview experts or excerpts, as well
Speaker 1: as some of his Fox Fox's work through the years.
Speaker 1: It appears to have since been deleted, so they got
Speaker 1: rid of this. It happens a lot, man, It happens
Speaker 1: a lot. I've seen stories league like this because people
Speaker 1: found images saved on the servers of some of these
Speaker 1: news outlets because.
Speaker 3: They're that dumb they are.
Speaker 1: I'll give you the I'll give you a stupid example,
Speaker 1: but it's still an example. Years and years and years ago,
Speaker 1: there was a story that broke that Jamie Lynn Spears,
Speaker 1: Britney Spears' sister. I believe Jamie Lynn Spears. There was
Speaker 1: a story that broke that she was pregnant, and at
Speaker 1: the time nobody knew and it wasn't out there anywhere.
Speaker 1: But the magazine that was working on the story had
Speaker 1: an image on their server of the cover of this
Speaker 1: magazine and it said Jamie Lynn Spears pregnant bombshell announcement
Speaker 1: or whatever, and somebody got on the magazine server and
Speaker 1: was just looking around. They found this and they they
Speaker 1: broke the news before they were about to release all
Speaker 1: this information. Now that is a big giant who cares
Speaker 1: missed me with that kind of news tidbit, But it's
Speaker 1: an example of what kind of happens at.
Speaker 3: A lot of these places. Michael J. Fox is fine. Here.
Speaker 1: He is on stage with Harrison Ford. He was at
Speaker 1: an event this past weekend, I think maybe even the
Speaker 1: day before at the Pali Center.
Speaker 3: Harry is right there.
Speaker 1: Shaking hands with Harrison Ford. But uh, Cast of Shrinking
Speaker 1: I believe, Yeah, the Cast of Shrinking was having an event.
Speaker 3: Michael J.
Speaker 1: Fox showed up there to give some support, and he's
Speaker 1: all right. He's still posting on threads or somebody is
Speaker 1: for him at the very least, who knows. But not
Speaker 1: the first time though, get it wrong over at CNA,
Speaker 1: and certainly not the last time, but do give us
Speaker 1: your thoughts on this. Maybe over their instances you've seen
Speaker 1: of this kind of stuff happening. Send a dispatch over
Speaker 1: at thenewsjunkie dot com or emailed the show tips tips
Speaker 1: at the newsjunkie dot com.
Speaker 3: Quick update started the story.
Speaker 1: I don't know why you all did it, and I say,
Speaker 1: you all chat picked this, Sabrina picked this, see.
Speaker 3: Lane picked this.
Speaker 1: They all picked dark instead of light at the beginning
Speaker 1: of the show. We'll never know what the opening light
Speaker 1: clip was. It was a nice, lighthearted thing that we'll
Speaker 1: never get to hear because they chose the dark clip
Speaker 1: to start the show. The dark clip was on this
Speaker 1: guy's social media channels and he was upset about his pay,
Speaker 1: so he burned an entire warehouse down.
Speaker 3: Here's the update I have for you.
Speaker 1: Footage shows the aftermath of the Ontario, California fire that
Speaker 1: wiped out a one point two million square foot tissue paperware.
Speaker 3: One point two million square feet I.
Speaker 1: Think nine year old chamel adul Karim was allegedly upset
Speaker 1: about his pace, so he decided to.
Speaker 3: Burn the whole warehouse down.
Speaker 1: Oh God, the warehouse served the toilet paper needs of
Speaker 1: about fifty million people. Are we gonna have a toilet
Speaker 1: paper shortage? Oh no, that's a tissue paper. But I
Speaker 1: think it's the same thing. Yeah, I mean fifty million people.
Speaker 1: If this is one of the big factories. There's new footage,
Speaker 1: and I'll put this up along with the other footage
Speaker 1: too that I didn't post earlier. All Right, the flyover
Speaker 1: goes over the warehouse where this guy lit the toilet
Speaker 1: paper warehouse on fire, and you can see the extent
Speaker 1: to which there is nothing.
Speaker 6: Nothing, sprinklers, no sort of It wasn't enough.
Speaker 3: No, look, there's nothing.
Speaker 1: There's it's walls, folks. The walls remain, that is it,
Speaker 1: Absolutely nothing left.
Speaker 3: It burned from front to back. Crazy.
Speaker 5: I'm sorry, but I think one would hope that a
Speaker 5: factory that holds the paper needs of fifty million people
Speaker 5: would have a better fire suppression system. I'm not blaming
Speaker 5: them on this because you know, the guy he committed
Speaker 5: the arson, they didn't pay him to live. Yeah, but
Speaker 5: you know, if they were saving money on employees, they
Speaker 5: should have bought themselves a real decent fire suppression system.
Speaker 3: Because a little bit hilarious if he made that video.
Speaker 5: And it's like pay me to live, Pay me to live,
Speaker 5: and he zippos up a damn palette of a toilet
Speaker 5: paper and all of a sudden, she's just like.
Speaker 3: Problem solved.
Speaker 6: I'm curious what his charges are going to be considering
Speaker 6: how much money is.
Speaker 1: Offs so crazy, I'm putting them both up on See
Speaker 1: It now. All right, I've got both of these before
Speaker 1: and the after. I'll put them both up on See
Speaker 1: It now during this break. When we come back, we'll
Speaker 1: give you the update on the hookers in Hope Town.
Speaker 1: The Hooker family, husband and wife. They were on an
Speaker 1: eight foot boat. He says she went overboard. The family
Speaker 1: says she may have been murdered. New details, and I'll
Speaker 1: give you the case four and against this guy that's coming.
Speaker 3: Up next on the news.
Speaker 1: Junkie Hookers in Hopetown. That's what I'm calling around here,
Speaker 1: hookers in Hopetown, and it's the Hooker family. This guy
Speaker 1: and his wife who were sailing around on this big
Speaker 1: sailboat that they had, and they were living the life,
Speaker 1: baby island life.
Speaker 3: They made their way.
Speaker 1: To the Bahamas, a little place called Hopetown where strangely enough,
Speaker 1: everybody on this show has been multiple times. It's not
Speaker 1: a super popular place in the Bahamas. It's not like
Speaker 1: Nasau or some of these other spots, but it is
Speaker 1: a beautiful place. And we have all been to the
Speaker 1: spot where this has a occurred or definitely occurred in
Speaker 1: the Bahamas. Something here, something happened Sea Lanes, right, What
Speaker 1: was it? That's what we got to figure out. Here's
Speaker 1: the nuts and bolts of this story. You have a
Speaker 1: guy named Brian Hooker, okay, and Brian Hooker went out
Speaker 1: with his wife and she was with him on this
Speaker 1: sailboat trip to the Bahamas. They were in this area
Speaker 1: Lynette Hooker and Brian Hooker to enjoy some things, and
Speaker 1: apparently they were having some drinks now and again. Now,
Speaker 1: Lynette Hooker's daughter says that her mom's husband would drink
Speaker 1: and sometimes get a little aggressive violent, maybe even threaten
Speaker 1: to throw his wife, Lynette Hooker overboard.
Speaker 3: From time to time. So specific not a good.
Speaker 1: Look afterwards, with everything that we know now in mind,
Speaker 1: not a great look. And there's a lot of news
Speaker 1: coming in on this story. The rest of the basics
Speaker 1: that you need to know are that I think it
Speaker 1: was around eight o'clock or so at night. It was
Speaker 1: sometime in the middle of the night. They got on
Speaker 1: what's being called a dinghy. And we can't tell you
Speaker 1: enough how small this boat is. We saw them in
Speaker 1: the boat. The boat is about eight feet long. If
Speaker 1: that it's like a bathtub, a glorified bathtub with a
Speaker 1: little outboard motor on it that's designed to get them
Speaker 1: to their yacht or sailboat. I would probably say that
Speaker 1: some of the stories say yacht. And he says on
Speaker 1: the way, the weather was really bad, and when the
Speaker 1: weather was really bad, it rocked his wife off of
Speaker 1: the boat. When it rocked his wife off of the boat,
Speaker 1: it ended up kicking her off with the keys, because
Speaker 1: she had the keys to the boat with her, like
Speaker 1: on the little floaty thing. So the boat turned off.
Speaker 1: His wife popped off into the water, and he said
Speaker 1: he hasn't seen her since he had to row back
Speaker 1: to shore because he didn't have the keys anymore. He
Speaker 1: said he lost his wife in the weather, and he
Speaker 1: he's hoping she went to a little island somewhere.
Speaker 2: I know it for.
Speaker 6: Sure, just a little island in the middle of the
Speaker 6: ocean during bad weather.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and this is not very likely, just so you know,
Speaker 1: not very likely. But the headlines are getting more interesting
Speaker 1: as we go. Here's what we see from today from CNN.
Speaker 1: Husband arrested during search for missing American woman in the Bahamas. Now,
Speaker 1: I'm going to give you the case for and against
Speaker 1: this guy, Brian Hooker. Did he kill his wife or what?
Speaker 1: I'll give you the case for and against him in
Speaker 1: just a second. But police and the Bahamas, according to CNN,
Speaker 1: have arrested the husband of a missing American woman. She
Speaker 1: went missing on Saturday, and obviously enough time has passed
Speaker 1: that nobody thinks she's going to be coming back alive
Speaker 1: at this point, and investigators were told by her husband
Speaker 1: that she fell overboard in rough waters. Royal Bahamas Police
Speaker 1: said Wednesday an American man had been taken into custody
Speaker 1: in connection with the case and was being questioned. The
Speaker 1: statement from the agency didn't identify him, but you know,
Speaker 1: you know what they're talking about here. Attorney Terrell Butler
Speaker 1: confirmed Brian Hooker was the man who had been arrested,
Speaker 1: and they said he categorically and unequivocally denies any wrongdoing.
Speaker 3: He is anybody ever, didn't do it. Anybody ever equivocally
Speaker 3: deny like I don't even know.
Speaker 5: All of the denying that we hear each day from
Speaker 5: every person who's ever said it wasn't me, I didn't
Speaker 5: do it is usually defined as unequivocally. I don't even
Speaker 5: know what equivocally denying something sounds like, kinda kind of not.
Speaker 1: It says categorically and unequivocally he denies any wrongdoing. It
Speaker 1: puts simply, he said it wasn't him. He didn't kill
Speaker 1: his wife, he didn't throw her overboard. They continue he's
Speaker 1: been cooperating with the relevant authorities as part of an
Speaker 1: ongoing investigation.
Speaker 3: He was taken into custody about.
Speaker 1: Seven thirty pm on Wednesday for additional questioning based on
Speaker 1: some probable cause we have, according to the Assistant Commissioner
Speaker 1: of the Bahamian Police. The announcement came just hours after
Speaker 1: the US Coast Guard said they the US Coast Guard
Speaker 1: had opened a criminal investigation into the disappearance of his wife,
Speaker 1: Lynette Hookers. The Hookers, the Lynette Hooker, the Hookers in
Speaker 1: Hopetown grabbing a lot of attention, not just in the Bahamas,
Speaker 1: but far beyond that around the world, as people are
Speaker 1: looking at these headlines now. They are both US nationals
Speaker 1: from Michigan. Her daughter is speaking out in the wacer
Speaker 1: of her disappearance, No pun intended, and her daughter is
Speaker 1: saying that she fought a lot with this Brian Hooker guy.
Speaker 1: I don't think the Brian Hooker guy is the father.
Speaker 3: Of this daughter.
Speaker 1: That ages don't add up and stuff. They've been married
Speaker 1: over twenty years though, the two of them and Brian
Speaker 1: told local authorities they've been returning from land on a
Speaker 1: small called dinghy when Lynette fell off the boat amid
Speaker 1: turbulent sees. According to the previous statement from the Royal
Speaker 1: Bahamas Police Force, after local authorities in the coast Guards
Speaker 1: scoured the bay, the effort moved to a recovery operation
Speaker 1: and now they're probing a little bit deeper here.
Speaker 3: So what is going on?
Speaker 10: All right?
Speaker 1: So those are the things we know basically about this story.
Speaker 1: But what it was the case against this guy, because
Speaker 1: when I ask people about this story, they tend to
Speaker 1: think that the guy is just flat out guilty. So
Speaker 1: let's talk about the case against this guy real quick.
Speaker 1: The case against Hooker Brian Hooker fifty eight years old.
Speaker 3: The case against him.
Speaker 1: Is that The woman's daughter said that they fought all
Speaker 1: the time. The woman's daughter said he was a drinker
Speaker 1: and he got angry when he was drinking. And we
Speaker 1: know from experience on this show that you can do
Speaker 1: some drinking. And Hopetown and the Bahamas, it's kind of
Speaker 1: one of the things as they do there.
Speaker 3: They got a couple of little resorts.
Speaker 1: You drink at the resorts, you have some food, the
Speaker 1: service is slow, it's a beautiful place, and round and
Speaker 1: round we go. So they were probably having some drinks
Speaker 1: and enjoying themselves, is the guess here, and then they
Speaker 1: decide that they're going to leave and go back to
Speaker 1: their boat. They said it was a couple of miles
Speaker 1: or something sea land, I think. Then they said like
Speaker 1: one point eight miles or something like that too.
Speaker 3: I don't know what they said.
Speaker 5: All I know is what I what I said yesterday
Speaker 5: was that in the area where they supposedly were, if
Speaker 5: they were headed to an anchored a sailboat or yacht,
Speaker 5: compared to where he said he washed up and like
Speaker 5: ended up reporting the the his wife missing, that was
Speaker 5: like five miles in a straight line, right, And that
Speaker 5: was that's marsh harbor. That's, you know, right where the
Speaker 5: airport is and so like. And he got there four am.
Speaker 5: He might he might have been in that dinghy for
Speaker 5: a long ass time.
Speaker 1: Yeah, And in her case, she did not have a
Speaker 1: life jacket on in this tiny little boat. And he said,
Speaker 1: you threw a preserver at her, but he.
Speaker 3: Lost her in detail, and that's how she fell. He would.
Speaker 1: He walloped her into the water, is what a lot
Speaker 1: of people think happened here. So this is sort of
Speaker 1: the case against him. They don't drink well together. She
Speaker 1: had posted on social media something to the effect of Okay,
Speaker 1: here's the meme that she posted a little bit before this,
Speaker 1: the final video shared on her YouTube channel just days
Speaker 1: before she vanished. Said in a meme, it was two
Speaker 1: people next to each other with oh my god, I
Speaker 1: have to bring this up so you can see that
Speaker 1: this is real. Hang on for those of you watching
Speaker 1: over on YouTube. So missing us mom.
Speaker 2: And this was her last post, that's.
Speaker 3: What they say.
Speaker 1: The New York post says, this was the last thing
Speaker 1: that she posted on her YouTube channel. And is this
Speaker 1: just an image or the video? I think this is
Speaker 1: an image perfect. Okay, here is the last thing that
Speaker 1: she posted on her YouTube channel and it says, don't
Speaker 1: you two ever get sick of each other? And it
Speaker 1: said me and my husband And it's a man drinking
Speaker 1: a beer and he's about to push, oh, the person.
Speaker 3: Into the pool. And I mean.
Speaker 1: That this can go in the pile of the case
Speaker 1: against this guy. Like his wife, just before she died,
Speaker 1: posted a meme that says me and my husband and
Speaker 1: the husband in the video is drinking or in the
Speaker 1: in the screenshot that I'm looking at is drinking and
Speaker 1: pushes her into the pool.
Speaker 2: Something fish here and then his y I don't know.
Speaker 1: And then she ends up going overboard in this age
Speaker 1: foot both.
Speaker 3: So to make of that what you will?
Speaker 2: What if she's alive and it's a whole life insurance thing.
Speaker 3: Could be on it. We don't know.
Speaker 1: We literally don't know. This is just speculation. The case
Speaker 1: against him is basically that there's a lot of circumstantial stuff.
Speaker 1: The daughter seems to think that he did it. She
Speaker 1: posted a meme about him pushing her into a pool
Speaker 1: and then she gets dropped into the ocean off the
Speaker 1: Bahamas and disappears. Lots of things. Is that, Yeah, if
Speaker 1: you go back to the page, you were on. Yeah,
Speaker 1: there should be a link to it. The page New
Speaker 1: York Post had a.
Speaker 3: Link to it.
Speaker 1: Oh, okay, hold on, I just got rid of that.
Speaker 1: I can bring it back up though, so I'm a magic.
Speaker 1: It just shows them pushing somebody into the pool.
Speaker 3: No, it's like one of them is dancing or something.
Speaker 1: I don't know.
Speaker 5: I don't know if that up up. Okay, I'm up
Speaker 5: the short clip on the YouTube channel right here.
Speaker 1: Got it, got it, got it?
Speaker 3: Okay, here's the actual clip.
Speaker 1: Okay, So there's that he's drinking and he's next to
Speaker 1: her and she's dancing, and oh, does he not push
Speaker 1: her in the pool? No, so they're just dancing, dancing,
Speaker 1: dancing on the edge of the pool. That's a microphone.
Speaker 1: That's not a beer. Oh it's okay. I thought this
Speaker 1: was a beer in his hand. Okay, I stand corrected.
Speaker 1: This may be a microphone, and it's very hard to tell.
Speaker 1: But let's say the person singing into this and it's
Speaker 1: a microphone and the other person is dancing on the
Speaker 1: very edge of the pool and they're close together, and
Speaker 1: it sort of gives the idea that something has gone
Speaker 1: wrong here maybe, or that they like partying together by
Speaker 1: the pool. You could you could read into these things
Speaker 1: however you want, really, but there's no pushing them in
Speaker 1: the pool.
Speaker 3: I'll roll that back.
Speaker 1: It's just right on the edge of the pool is
Speaker 1: one person and the other person is like partying around
Speaker 1: next to them.
Speaker 5: And she captioned it dance party with sunglasses of Moji.
Speaker 3: Hashtag bahamas hashtag bahamas.
Speaker 1: Right, and prior to this, even though they posted all
Speaker 1: their stuff on social media and they had some social
Speaker 1: media accounts, was nobody watching this. There was nobody paying
Speaker 1: attention to this. Honestly, nobody knew about the hookers in
Speaker 1: Hopetown before the story bro.
Speaker 5: As crazy as this story has gotten and has has widespread,
Speaker 5: you know, with people talking about it, this thing only
Speaker 5: has fifteen comments.
Speaker 1: Yeah, even now, even now because it's still just kind
Speaker 1: of percolatd.
Speaker 5: This is either extremely tragic or extremely telling now that
Speaker 5: the wife is missing some thoughts and prayers.
Speaker 1: So people are still taking it that way. But let
Speaker 1: me be as fair as I can about the final
Speaker 1: post from her on the YouTube channel. It features two
Speaker 1: people next to each other. One is on the edge
Speaker 1: of the pool, the other one is near them. The
Speaker 1: person who is the guy and this the other person
Speaker 1: has a bag on their head, but the guy looks
Speaker 1: to be kind of singing into a microphone while the
Speaker 1: other person's on the edge of the pool. They don't
Speaker 1: actually push the person in. But you can read from
Speaker 1: this what you want, right, And that's what people are
Speaker 1: kind of doing here.
Speaker 5: Somebody said, I don't necessarily disagree. This whole saleing hookers thing,
Speaker 5: which is the name of their YouTube channel, is giving
Speaker 5: me strong Gabby Potito van life vibes.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I agree. I can see that too. I can
Speaker 1: absolutely see.
Speaker 6: That, especially his post afterwards, which is so obvious and weirdos.
Speaker 1: That's another thing I would put in the category against him, Okay,
Speaker 1: Ted says, reading way too much into that, Yeah, I
Speaker 1: mean there's a tendency.
Speaker 3: To do that.
Speaker 1: We only have so much that we're looking at here,
Speaker 1: so I'm just trying to throw it all into the
Speaker 1: pile away, ye, Ted, And you can wait this stuff differently.
Speaker 1: I wouldn't wait that very heavily. Obviously it's not actual evidence,
Speaker 1: but it's something right. And the daughter says that things
Speaker 1: were not very good between this couple. The daughter says
Speaker 1: that when he drank there were problems the daughter says
Speaker 1: that he joked around and maybe even threatened to throw
Speaker 1: her overboard at different periods of time, and put that
Speaker 1: into the pile of all the things we just heard
Speaker 1: for the case against this guy, Brian Hooker, fifty eight
Speaker 1: years old, and say, maybe that shows that he killed
Speaker 1: Lynette Hooker, his fifty five year old wife, or the
Speaker 1: case that she just fell off, and that his story
Speaker 1: is true in the case in support of him. The
Speaker 1: one thing that I'll say is there's a lot of
Speaker 1: happenstance here. I mean, he would really have been taken
Speaker 1: advantage of the opportunity if he wanted to push her
Speaker 1: off into the water, because it was actually a very
Speaker 1: rocky day on the sea.
Speaker 5: I thought you were going to go darker. It was
Speaker 5: actually say it was a really great opportunity.
Speaker 3: Well it was, yeah.
Speaker 1: I mean, I'll say that if you wanted to push
Speaker 1: somebody off a boat, it was the perfect moment for it.
Speaker 1: The waves were big, the winds were big, the storms
Speaker 1: were big, and they were in an eight foot boat,
Speaker 1: and that is that is something. But could it have
Speaker 1: been just happenstance that it really was bad weather and
Speaker 1: he decides this is the moment where it's going to
Speaker 1: look most believable, all right, and he shoves her off
Speaker 1: into the water and then she wasn't able to swim
Speaker 1: her way back to shore.
Speaker 2: As an experienced boater and a sailboat.
Speaker 6: Nonetheless, I was like a decision like that makes no
Speaker 6: sense to me to go out and bad weather on
Speaker 6: a dinghy with no communication. If something could happened no radio,
Speaker 6: just had to drift back. It seems just so obvious
Speaker 6: to me that where they're missing big art or he
Speaker 6: really is this.
Speaker 2: Dumb to think you can get away with murdering his wife.
Speaker 1: I could look at that two ways, because I can go,
Speaker 1: would it be the case that if somebody was really
Speaker 1: skilled it at boating, that they would maybe be more
Speaker 1: likely to not do things like wear a life vest
Speaker 1: and to like maybe go out in.
Speaker 3: A bigger storm.
Speaker 1: And would the experience level make you more comfortable in
Speaker 1: doing something like this? I agree from my angle, I go,
Speaker 1: I wouldn't go on the boat in a storm. I
Speaker 1: would definitely have my life vest on. But if you're
Speaker 1: an experienced boater, would you be less likely to do that?
Speaker 3: Maybe?
Speaker 1: Like a million times, they seem like a.
Speaker 3: Lot of times.
Speaker 5: It depends on what boat you're on, whether it's like
Speaker 5: cool to not have a life vest On. I think
Speaker 5: the way the weather should have been, you would think
Speaker 5: they would want them on. But there's other pictures of
Speaker 5: the two of them from Lynette Hooker's Facebook page where
Speaker 5: they're clearly on a boat in neither of them have
Speaker 5: a life vest On and I can't tell. It looks
Speaker 5: close enough to the water like it could be the dinghy,
Speaker 5: but I can't tell.
Speaker 1: Also in the case in support of his story, in
Speaker 1: support of the husband's story, is he says she was driving,
Speaker 1: And we did see a photograph of her driving the
Speaker 1: boat the dinghy. We saw her in the dinghy with
Speaker 1: the motor. It looked like she was in control and
Speaker 1: she was driving, even though some of the original stories
Speaker 1: were that, hey, actually she never drove, he drove. Why
Speaker 1: would she be driving the boat, Why would she have
Speaker 1: the keys that would pull out when she fell overboard?
Speaker 1: So she did, at least in the photograph that we saw,
Speaker 1: appeared to be steering the boat and driving the boat
Speaker 1: in that moment.
Speaker 5: Hell, maybe she wants to wear the cutoff thing, you know,
Speaker 5: because when they fight, they get a little they get
Speaker 5: a little angry. At each other, get little drunk rage,
Speaker 5: and he's threatened to throw her overboard. Maybe she's like,
Speaker 5: I'm wearing the thing, so you're screwed if I fall
Speaker 5: off his boat.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't know. We don't. I'm only throwing the
Speaker 3: infroditional mouth up now.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah, you are.
Speaker 3: We're doing it.
Speaker 1: We're doing a little speculating.
Speaker 3: We're doing a little speculating.
Speaker 1: But that's what you do when you have a case
Speaker 1: at the early stages like this. Hey, guess what, you
Speaker 1: know what we can look into right now? We can
Speaker 1: look into the details that the Bahamian police seem to
Speaker 1: think this guy knows more than he's saying, don't they
Speaker 1: If they're bringing him in and they're questioning him and
Speaker 1: they're talking about charges, and they're saying, we believe he
Speaker 1: knows more than he's saying. It's not just us speculating
Speaker 1: about this. There's also at least the same kind of
Speaker 1: vibes coming from the police and the FEDS who said
Speaker 1: they're opening up a criminal investigation into this too. So
Speaker 1: that's a little bit more. That's a little bit more
Speaker 1: that we're seeing there. All right, quick break, we'll take
Speaker 1: your calls on this I have another update on the
Speaker 1: hookers in Hopetown story. We'll put it further onto the
Speaker 1: show after Fritz on the Street when we come back.
Speaker 1: I got the Kanye email to get to. Also, one
Speaker 1: of the other stories that I wanted to hit on
Speaker 1: here was that that stabbing in Charlotte, the woman who
Speaker 1: was on the subway, the twenty three year old woman
Speaker 1: who was stabbed by the crazy hobo dude. There's an
Speaker 1: update on that story that has people melting down. I'll
Speaker 1: give you the truth about it. I'll tell you what's
Speaker 1: really going on. That's coming up next on the News Junkie.
Speaker 3: A couple of things to get into here.
Speaker 1: I'll have to leave that one for off air at
Speaker 1: least for the moment, but a couple of things to
Speaker 1: get into here on the show. One is, I see
Speaker 1: people freaking out by the way about this guy to
Speaker 1: Carlos Brown Junior, and he's the lunatic. This like crazed
Speaker 1: hobo who killed that Ukrainian refugee, Erna Zarutzka when they
Speaker 1: were on the trainer like the subway, and he went
Speaker 1: up behind her and started stabbing her and killed her.
Speaker 1: It's brutal, just absolutely brutal. And for like five seconds
Speaker 1: people said, hold on, it's almost like we have a
Speaker 1: problem with violent recidivist inmates that we just keep releasing
Speaker 1: back into the public hunh. Or We're right there on
Speaker 1: the verge of a great breakthrough to determine that maybe
Speaker 1: we need to do something about this, to determine that
Speaker 1: maybe like we should just let random, angry, crazy people
Speaker 1: roam around until they stab people in the throat. We
Speaker 1: were so close to a great American breakthrough, but last
Speaker 1: year we are and the story that is getting highlighted
Speaker 1: by many people, I want to clarify a little bit
Speaker 1: because it says de Carlos Brown Junior, that's the guy
Speaker 1: in question who killed this woman, has been found incompetent
Speaker 1: to proceed in the Charlotte, North Carolina light rail killing.
Speaker 1: So they have found him incompetent or incapable to proceed
Speaker 1: with the court case. And I think the idea that
Speaker 1: a lot of people have is like, oh, they're just
Speaker 1: going to release him again. So this time he stabs
Speaker 1: this poor woman and she bleeds out on the train
Speaker 1: in front of everybody god in the world, because it
Speaker 1: was caught on camera and everybody saw this thing.
Speaker 3: Until we kind of have to forget about it, you know,
Speaker 3: call on him next, then forget it.
Speaker 1: Don't worry about that, lady. Don't worry about that, lady.
Speaker 1: It's not a problem anymore. But people want you to
Speaker 1: think De Carlos Brown is going to get right back
Speaker 1: out there, right back on the street, over and over
Speaker 1: and over again, even after he stabbed the woman in
Speaker 1: the throat and killed her. To Carlos Brown Junior, accorded
Speaker 1: to the Charlotte Observer, has been found incapable to proceed
Speaker 1: on the state murder charge brought against him and the
Speaker 1: killing of Ukrainian refugee Arena Zarutzka.
Speaker 3: According to court filings, Brown.
Speaker 1: A thirty five year old homeless man who previously told
Speaker 1: police he was diagnosed with schizophrenia, faces both state and
Speaker 1: federal murder charges and the August light rail stabbing of
Speaker 1: the twenty three year old. The result of his capacity
Speaker 1: evaluation were revealed in emotion his state public defender filed
Speaker 1: in court on Tuesday this week, and the motion attorney
Speaker 1: Daniel Roberts, ask a judge to delay his rule twenty
Speaker 1: four hearing, in which prosecutors would say whether they plan
Speaker 1: to seek the death penalty in this case. Now, let
Speaker 1: me stop here for a couple of things. One, people
Speaker 1: are going, well, now he's not going to get the
Speaker 1: death penalty. And this guy's a murderer, Well, he's not
Speaker 1: going to get the death penalty anyway. Nobody has been
Speaker 1: as far as I know, executed in the state of
Speaker 1: North Carolina for a couple of decades. Now under state law,
Speaker 1: they haven't killed anybody the state of North Carolina. They've
Speaker 1: blocked executions for the last twenty years. So if you're
Speaker 1: out there saying this guy needs a death penalty, odds
Speaker 1: are he wasn't getting the death penalty to begin with
Speaker 1: because North Carolina doesn't kill people. And that's that part
Speaker 1: you can put to the side. The Rule twenty four
Speaker 1: hearing schedule for April thirtieth was previously delayed in order
Speaker 1: to give time for a capacity evaluation. Under state law
Speaker 1: in North Carolina, a defendant is cable to proceed if
Speaker 1: they can understand the nature of their charges, comprehend their
Speaker 1: role in court proceedings, and help their defense in a
Speaker 1: rational and reasonable manner. Obviously, this guy, as you can
Speaker 1: see from the video where he kills a woman, is crazy.
Speaker 1: They're in lies. The problem he's crazy. The problem is
Speaker 1: that this type of person is roaming around and they
Speaker 1: just keep releasing them over and over and over and
Speaker 1: they're crazy, right, but they're right in court, like, how
Speaker 1: is he going to defend himself? He doesn't know what's
Speaker 1: going on. He's not rational, he's not reasonable, he's crazy.
Speaker 1: The part that people are getting I think a little
Speaker 1: bit confused about is he's not going to be released.
Speaker 1: He will remain in federal custody. There is a federal
Speaker 1: murder charge pending against him. This is only about the
Speaker 1: state charge, and this hearing is only paused for six months.
Speaker 1: He's not going to be released. I don't know that
Speaker 1: he'll ever be released. He's probably going to be kept
Speaker 1: in some sort of institution for the rest of his life,
Speaker 1: which should have happened before this, to be clear, it
Speaker 1: should have happened before all of this happened. But I
Speaker 1: just wanted to tell you because you're going to see
Speaker 1: a lot of people kind of overplaying I think what's
Speaker 1: happening here. They'll go look again, they're releasing this guy.
Speaker 3: He killed this.
Speaker 1: Woman, and back on the streets he goes, well, he's
Speaker 1: still held up on the federal charges. And even if
Speaker 1: he wasn't, he would still face something for the state charges.
Speaker 1: People like this guy need to be medicated forcefully for
Speaker 1: the rest of their life. They need to be put
Speaker 1: into You can call them whatever you want. You can
Speaker 1: call them asylums, you can call them Helperville, you can
Speaker 1: call them, you know, happy homes, you can you can
Speaker 1: call them.
Speaker 3: Whatever you want.
Speaker 1: But they need to be kept in places where they're
Speaker 1: away from other people so that they don't harm them,
Speaker 1: like this poor woman whose life was taken away from it.
Speaker 1: But we can't pretend that he's competent enough to be
Speaker 1: in a trial. He's obviously crazy. He's crazy. Okay, So
Speaker 1: let me know when you think about that. If you've
Speaker 1: seen that story out there, flats Fisherman said, why do
Speaker 1: we get rid of asylums again?
Speaker 3: Oh, it's complicated.
Speaker 1: It's part of what they call the deinstitutionalization of America.
Speaker 1: There was some Supreme Court cases that say you can't
Speaker 1: force full imprisoned people under the Constitution before they commit crimes.
Speaker 3: It's like a pre crime.
Speaker 1: So you would need Congress to come together and say
Speaker 1: when somebody is mentally ill, and a panel of medical
Speaker 1: professionals deem them to be mentally ill people pose a
Speaker 1: danger to other people that they then can hold them
Speaker 1: even indefinitely, so that the other people are safe. But
Speaker 1: Congress won't get off their ass and do anything like that.
Speaker 1: But yeah, it's called de institutionalization. And the asylums, there
Speaker 1: were some terrible ones. There were some terrible asylums, and
Speaker 1: there's some very bad photo essays about how bad the
Speaker 1: conditions were in these places. And just like lobotomies, something
Speaker 1: that worked for some people gets wiped away by the
Speaker 1: fact that it didn't work for a bunch of others.
Speaker 1: And yeah, that's where that goes. But we need to
Speaker 1: find a way to fix something like this. I don't
Speaker 1: believe de Carlos Brown has headed for the streets, however,
Speaker 1: So there he goes. That's the update on that. Lots
Speaker 1: of emails coming in. They get to one really quickly,
Speaker 1: and this is Brad Hollywood. Brad emails the show about Kanye.
Speaker 1: I mentioned this earlier.
Speaker 3: He says.
Speaker 1: So, I've been working on a lot of shows lately
Speaker 1: when they come through Los Angeles, but I didn't work
Speaker 1: on the Kanye show, thankfully.
Speaker 3: Brad says.
Speaker 1: A lot of my friends worked those shows and I
Speaker 1: heard horror stories of constant last minute changes.
Speaker 3: That surprises me.
Speaker 1: Zo gosh, Actually we're going to do the beginning like
Speaker 1: this instead. He's He's just he's always gonna making changes.
Speaker 5: But I want to know, like, what's the most Kanye
Speaker 5: last minute change you could make?
Speaker 3: Like he stood on a giant globe?
Speaker 1: Was it a pyramid an hour ago? I want two
Speaker 1: globes now? Kanye yelling at people, as he says, Kanye
Speaker 1: yelling at people, at people over things that were his fault,
Speaker 1: not allowing anyone there to look at him.
Speaker 3: If he was driven through the tunnel.
Speaker 2: You couldn't.
Speaker 1: Everyone was instructed to turn and face away from the car,
Speaker 1: Brad says. He says, personally, the Nazi stuff was enough
Speaker 1: for me and I either want to work with him.
Speaker 1: But after hearing how he made the shows where he
Speaker 1: he treated people this way, maybe glad I turned the
Speaker 1: job down.
Speaker 3: The one bonus for those.
Speaker 1: That did was that he made so many last minute
Speaker 1: changes that everybody was working eighteen hour days for over
Speaker 1: a week and they made tons of overtime. Nice word
Speaker 1: that I'm not sure keep up the work, Brat, Yeah,
Speaker 1: I mean fair points. I still think it was a
Speaker 1: phenomenal show. The stage was phenomenal, the performance was phenomenal,
Speaker 1: and it came off pretty well, and not without hiccups.
Speaker 1: There were some issues, but I can believe what you're

Speaker 3: And that's the only one I could think of at
Speaker 3: number one.
Speaker 1: First came first thing. I came to mind with Spider Man.
Speaker 1: But didn't that fail miserably after a while. M I
Speaker 1: don't remember spider Man. Spider Man was a disaster. People
Speaker 1: kept getting hurt because they had a person playing Spider Man,
Speaker 1: like winging across the stage and stuff.
Speaker 2: The person, at least that first round listens to the show.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, that's up just now? Were you?
Speaker 3: I don't know.
Speaker 2: He still does.
Speaker 6: At number one, The Lion King has made two point

Speaker 6: sentenced yesterday.
Speaker 2: Did you see this?
Speaker 3: Yeah?
Speaker 1: They Yeah, I almost sauch a cocaine queen, ke queen,
Speaker 1: she's younger, This ketamine queen lady didn't look like she
Speaker 1: was very.
Speaker 3: Old to me.
Speaker 6: No, but she established some sort of ketamine royalty, because
Speaker 6: that's what they called her, the ketamine Queen. She operated
Speaker 6: a drug trafficking business right there out of her La
Speaker 6: home for years, catering to a lot of high profile
Speaker 6: Hollywood clientele, and is now going to be catering to
Speaker 6: no one because she's in prison for the next fifteen years.
Speaker 3: You could still be a ketamine queen in prison.
Speaker 1: Okay, this is very all I do on this story
Speaker 1: is sing the Caribbean Queen song.
Speaker 3: Thatta mean queen?
Speaker 1: Here's she's She looks so young to be this drug
Speaker 1: kingpin type person of green pin kem queen.
Speaker 6: She was facing sixty five and got fifteen, So wow,
Speaker 6: still going to see the light of day. She started
Speaker 6: as applying Matthew in twenty twenty three. When he died
Speaker 6: that year, she tried to destroy the evidence of their relationship.
Speaker 6: Obviously was not successful in that, and now one of
Speaker 6: the five people to plead guilty to charges related to
Speaker 6: matthew He's death. I'm okay with it and I don't
Speaker 6: know how this got involved. It was on the Bengo
Speaker 6: card to have Trick Daddy and sorority beefing.
Speaker 2: But here we are, I'm.
Speaker 3: Gonna say.
Speaker 6: Right now, Yeah, that was Trick Daddy.
Speaker 2: One of my favorite clips of him.
Speaker 6: Anyone who's familiar with Trick Daddy is where he's not
Speaker 6: maybe the best option to perform for a family friendly event.
Speaker 3: Oh oh, I thought he loved the kids. He does.
Speaker 6: No, Trick love the kids, but Trick's music might not
Speaker 6: be loved by the kids parents either way. Kappa Alpha
Speaker 6: Kalpa had hired him for a family friendly event and
Speaker 6: turns out there was some backlash. Surprised, so he initially
Speaker 6: made a name of hi himself with a song with
Speaker 6: two live crew and now here we are. In twenty
Speaker 6: twenty six, thousands of people associated with Alpha Kappa Alpha,
Speaker 6: the historically black sorority that's part of the Divine Nine,
Speaker 6: des centered upon Orlando for the seventy third South Atlantic
Speaker 6: Regional Conference, right and the festivities included a step and
Speaker 6: stroll competition capped off by a performance by Trick Daddy. However,
Speaker 6: that was cut short after organizers yanked him off the stage.
Speaker 6: Due to the risky lyrics and explicit language attendees were
Speaker 6: treated to. Once he turned on the microphone and did that,
Speaker 6: I say, did you know who trick Daddy is? Are
Speaker 6: you aware of his music when you hired him? He's
Speaker 6: been doing this for a long time?
Speaker 3: Did they ask him to play clean versions of his music?
Speaker 6: Now there's a chapter's regional director issued a statement apologizing
Speaker 6: for his behavior, asserting trick Daddy had ignored their requests
Speaker 6: for the attire and the language the specific songs.
Speaker 1: Well, they wanted him to saunter in in his suit
Speaker 1: and do like some stands.
Speaker 3: Yea, his trick Daddy?
Speaker 1: Google him, kids, what are you doing?
Speaker 6: His performance was not acceptable, According to the regional director.
Speaker 1: Will wouldn't have happened if it was pooh shisty. No,
Speaker 1: he would have would have been a professional performance. Did
Speaker 1: you know somebody told me last night? I know this
Speaker 1: was true. Somebody told me that pooh shisty guy that
Speaker 1: just got arrested. He had only been out of prison
Speaker 1: after spending five years in prison. He had only been
Speaker 1: out of prison five days before this happened. In so again,
Speaker 1: and I go are you kidding me?
Speaker 6: And one of his songs is like back at it
Speaker 6: or out of jail or something.
Speaker 1: Out of being free. For God's sake, No.
Speaker 2: I tricked out.
Speaker 6: He was not pleased with the statement that was made
Speaker 6: by the director of Alpha Kappa Alpha and had his
Speaker 6: own words. But I can't share that because I know
Speaker 6: that he has bad language. And we are on live radio,
Speaker 6: and that's why we probably wouldn't have him on to
Speaker 6: perform his songs.
Speaker 2: Yes or no, here we go.
Speaker 6: Maybe we can just get a new artist that doesn't exist.
Speaker 2: I present to you.
Speaker 6: Eddie Dalton has eleven songs on the iTunes Top one hundred,
Speaker 6: including two in the top ten as the number three
Speaker 6: album of his songs Another Day Old one point four
Speaker 6: million views on YouTube, and of course he's AI. Eddie
Speaker 6: Dalton is the creation of Dallas Little and everything from
Speaker 6: the music to his look, all AI generated.
Speaker 1: Is it good?
Speaker 6: I didn't give a listen if you'd like to. But
Speaker 6: the artist behind it was like, people know he's not real.
Speaker 6: They enjoy the music for what it is, so back off.
Speaker 6: Don't accuse Little of deceiving people ripping him off. He
Speaker 6: doesn't appreciate how my work has been characterized as AI.
Speaker 2: But your work is Ai.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it definitely is Ai. Are they find his best
Speaker 1: example here?

Speaker 6: exciting Denzel Curry and that song did come from the.

Speaker 1: We got a lot to talk about and some drama
Speaker 1: to mix in, and that's all coming up next on
Speaker 1: the News Junkie. Many people who end up watching the
Speaker 1: Seawan YouTube are like, I couldn't go back to the
Speaker 1: other way. It's a spoiled kind of thing that happens
Speaker 1: when you start watching on the YouTube stream YouTube dot
Speaker 1: com slash the News Junkie. After that, you go, I
Speaker 1: can't go back to just watching this show now, it's regression.
Speaker 1: It's like going back to flying without Wi Fi or something.
Speaker 1: I can't do this, so you might as well take
Speaker 1: the lead. Just give it a shock over to the
Speaker 1: newsjunkie dot com. Quick update on the good take I
Speaker 1: talked about earlier where I said somebody had said, hey,
Speaker 1: I'm sure those gas prices will come down just as
Speaker 1: quickly as they went up now that oil is diving
Speaker 1: per barrel.
Speaker 3: Well about that.
Speaker 1: Here is the update on this from Axios News and
Speaker 1: they say the Iran ceasefire, which is shaky, but somehow
Speaker 1: holding on this ceasefire that the United States has with
Speaker 1: Iran and Israel and kind of some of the other
Speaker 1: countries that are involved in this. The story from Axio
Speaker 1: says it may bring gasoline relief by Friday. The analysts
Speaker 1: that are experts in this are saying you could, according
Speaker 1: to gas Buddy, see the prices going down by Friday.
Speaker 3: I am not holding my breath on this.
Speaker 1: Gas prices have climb more than seventy cents over the
Speaker 1: past month through the Iran conflict. The average national price
Speaker 1: for gases four dollars and fourteen cents. It could be
Speaker 1: below four dollars a gallon with in one or two weeks.
Speaker 1: But here's the thing. When it does happen, you want
Speaker 1: see stories about that. For instance, right now, I think
Speaker 1: I just saw either today or ye yesterday that egg
Speaker 1: prices were so low, like egg prices are at historic
Speaker 1: lows now, but nobody cares. They only care about egg
Speaker 1: prices when the egg prices are exploding and you go,
Speaker 1: holy cow, look how expensive eggs are.
Speaker 3: It's unbelievable. I'm gonna have to waste some eggs. This weekend.
Speaker 1: Nobody, Nobody goes back and reports on this. Here's the
Speaker 1: story I liked about this, I said from polymarket, egg
Speaker 1: prices crash ninety seven percent from the March twenty twenty
Speaker 1: five all time high. They're now at a ten year low.
Speaker 1: So egg prices are at a ten year low. These
Speaker 1: are wholesale egg prices.
Speaker 3: I like this guy. I'm such an idiot. I bought
Speaker 3: two dozen eggs right at the top.
Speaker 1: That's such a great thing, is Danny Polishtik says on X.
Speaker 1: I'm such an idiot. I bought two dozen eggs right
Speaker 1: at the top egg prices.
Speaker 3: These are the whole sale.
Speaker 1: Egg prices are down ninety seven percent from that high
Speaker 1: they're at in March. But it doesn't really, it's not
Speaker 1: nothing makes the news when it's going down, necess Sarah.
Speaker 6: Less than a year ago, we were talking to someone
Speaker 6: who is selling very well They're at home chicken coop kit,
Speaker 6: because we thought it was never going to go back
Speaker 6: down again.
Speaker 2: Have an egg shortage.
Speaker 1: Forever still cool to have for a lifestyle choice. I
Speaker 1: have some neighbors who are doing a very rough cut
Speaker 1: of that. Really, yeah, yeah, the rough cut of that
Speaker 1: that they're.
Speaker 3: Doing I don't think they do.
Speaker 1: I don't think that they do necessarily. I got this
Speaker 1: Asian guy around the corner. I got to stop with this.
Speaker 2: I have to Asian neighbors.
Speaker 3: I have to stop with this.
Speaker 1: I thought that I had what I would call a
Speaker 1: perfect situation going where this show had a level of success.
Speaker 1: We can talk to a great, big audience every single day.
Speaker 1: But then nobody in my neighborhood knows who the hell
Speaker 1: I am. I've thought that to be the case, and
Speaker 1: that has seemed like it's been the case. But all
Speaker 1: of a sudden, out of the woodwork, all of these
Speaker 1: people in my neighborhood.
Speaker 3: Hey, bet Ay, Sean, Hey.
Speaker 1: And when I go for a walk or something, but John,
Speaker 1: I love this Jon today bad some guy yesterday. It's
Speaker 1: pouring down rain. I twist out on the street to
Speaker 1: go for a run, and as I'm leaving the driveway
Speaker 1: and I almost fall over, like I almost take a plummet,
Speaker 1: and this guy goes, hey, ne Jogie, and I go oh,
Speaker 1: and he's walking. He lives in my neighborhood. So there's
Speaker 1: there's more people in my immediate neighborhood all of a
Speaker 1: sudden that listen to the show.
Speaker 3: I didn't want that.
Speaker 1: I want zero ratings in my neighborhood and all of
Speaker 1: the ratings in every other neighborhood.
Speaker 3: I want every other neighborhood.
Speaker 1: I'm planet Earth to listen to the show aside from
Speaker 1: my neighborhood. Because now when I walk around here, I'm like, oh, great,
Speaker 1: these people are going to know look at that idiot.
Speaker 1: He's wearing a dumb shirt or whatever God only knows
Speaker 1: it's They don't have to.
Speaker 3: Know that you work for a radio station to think
Speaker 3: that that's true.
Speaker 1: But they now know more about me than I wanted
Speaker 1: them to because they so many people will be like, hey,
Speaker 1: it's the news junkie.
Speaker 3: Hey what's up buddy, Hey how you doing.
Speaker 1: So I don't know if I can talk a crap
Speaker 1: about them. And the Asian guy is kind of wacky.
Speaker 1: He's he doesn't he doesn't seem to have a problem
Speaker 1: with egg prices, but he just has chickens. He doesn't
Speaker 1: have a chicken coop, but he just has chickens. He
Speaker 1: lives right on a busy street and so the chickens
Speaker 1: are like running across the street and there there's chickens
Speaker 1: in his front yard. And the little kids in the
Speaker 1: house will be running out and like trying to It's.
Speaker 3: Unbelievable, unbelievable. I don't know if you can do that.

Speaker 1: But this Asian dude who's got like a nice new house,
Speaker 1: he does.
Speaker 3: And I.
Speaker 1: Have plenty of people I want to call the city on.
Speaker 1: And lord knows, Courtney has people she wants to call
Speaker 1: the city on. She's a stickler for the rules. But

Speaker 1: not on the list. You can apply for a backyard
Speaker 1: chicken permit. You can, yes, really, you can have no

Speaker 5: Roosters, ducks, geese, turkeys, pea fowl, pigeons or other birds
Speaker 5: are not allowed. What No pigeons, No pea fowl. So
Speaker 5: I guess the peacocks. They can't be pets. They just
Speaker 5: have to roam, you know, like they always do. You've
Speaker 5: got to live in a single family home. Chickens are
Speaker 5: not allowed on a duplex, triplex, town home, or multi
Speaker 5: family properties. They're not permitted in community gardens. They're not

Speaker 5: kept for personal use. Breeding and selling chickens, eggs, feathers,
Speaker 5: a manure is prohibited.
Speaker 1: I have to tell you I'm not going to do
Speaker 1: anything about this because I don't want to start a fight.
Speaker 1: I already got enough problems going with the neighbors, and
Speaker 1: some of them knowing about the show. I don't want
Speaker 1: any more. But I'm multi pronged on the birds front.
Speaker 1: I saw because I'm a good human being, even though
Speaker 1: I talk on the show about how much I hate
Speaker 1: the stupid peacocks in my neighborhood.
Speaker 3: I saw this, this.
Speaker 1: P hen sitting out there right and one of the
Speaker 1: females and it's got a broken foot. And I stopped
Speaker 1: and it was it was in the middle of the road.
Speaker 1: It's raining right, the road's wet. I'm by myself out
Speaker 1: there going for my run, and this bird stares at me,
Speaker 1: and the peacock looked at me, and I saw in
Speaker 1: the eyes of this peacock it said, Sean, forget about
Speaker 1: our fight from one creature to another.
Speaker 3: I need your help right now.
Speaker 1: And I said, I got you, peacock, I got you,
Speaker 1: my guy.
Speaker 3: I hate you guys.
Speaker 1: You're annoying and loud and weird and you poop everywhere.
Speaker 1: But I got you because he is standing in the
Speaker 1: middle of road and he didn't want to move away
Speaker 1: from me. He didn't want to all ass because he
Speaker 1: only had one leg to stand on the other one
Speaker 1: that's completely broken, and he just stayed as I walked
Speaker 1: about six inches away from him, and I said, Okay,
Speaker 1: I see you, buddy, I see it. He's just out
Speaker 1: there in the road with broken ass foot on this
Speaker 1: p hen it's a female, so I go, it's.
Speaker 3: Not what a female peacock is called. No, what is

Speaker 3: PP is of the P word PC?
Speaker 1: No, that's as it's not a.
Speaker 6: Pec Did you do you picked up the bird or
Speaker 6: you just took a picture of it.
Speaker 1: I took multiple photos of the bird, and that I
Speaker 1: did the research through AI in the middle of the street,
Speaker 1: in the middle of the rain, hanging out with my
Speaker 1: peacock pal here, and I said, I need some help.
Speaker 1: Where's the local bird rescue, and I got the number
Speaker 1: from the bird rescue and I texted the photographs to
Speaker 1: the bird rescue people, and I texted the street corner
Speaker 1: nearby and gave them all the information and they told
Speaker 1: me we don't do anything about peacocks. They are not
Speaker 1: animals that are supposed to be here.
Speaker 2: And it has been posted about already like weeks ago.
Speaker 1: Yeah, they were like, we're not helping them, and they go,
Speaker 1: you can, you can call these organizations. And I called
Speaker 1: the other organizations, and the organizations like, we don't care
Speaker 1: about peacocks. I was like, nobody cares about the peacock.
Speaker 1: The poor peacock got broken ass.
Speaker 3: Like a bird with a broken leg is done for.
Speaker 1: Not really, in this day and age, we have people
Speaker 1: who are pro cornhole champions and murderers and they have
Speaker 1: no arms or legs. So who knows what this peacock
Speaker 1: will end up doing. But I wasn't able to get
Speaker 1: him any help. I failed miserably in my attempt to
Speaker 1: you to rescue the peacock. I might have to out
Speaker 1: of its misery. And then I keep encountering have you
Speaker 1: seen this around this?
Speaker 3: The owl? And jealous.
Speaker 2: I was so jealous when I saw this posted.
Speaker 1: They're so cool there. It was just go to the park.
Speaker 1: The owl is at the park all the time. It's
Speaker 1: hands on top of the light fixture there.
Speaker 2: I think it's season coming up soon. We're gonna see
Speaker 2: a lot more of them.
Speaker 3: That would be awesome.
Speaker 1: I would love it if we had, because I don't
Speaker 1: like the peacocks. I made peace with the peacock to.
Speaker 3: Try to get him some help. The owl I'm all about, man.
Speaker 1: I was right, little owls are freaking a door, like,
Speaker 1: oh my god, I could get with that.
Speaker 3: I used to get.
Speaker 5: Owls in my backyard like a handful of houses ago.
Speaker 5: Did you the one where we did the fireworks that
Speaker 5: one time?
Speaker 3: Yeah? Yeah, yeah.

Speaker 5: on top, and every once in a while I would
Speaker 5: see an owl perched right on.
Speaker 3: Top of ull.
Speaker 2: The house you're in right now.
Speaker 3: Possibly, I don't know. There's a lot of room for owls. O.
Speaker 1: His backyard is so big, Sabrina, that he does not know.
Speaker 1: It's it's impossible for one to know with the yard
Speaker 1: so large.
Speaker 6: He tried to relate by going I had owls on
Speaker 6: my old house four houses ago.
Speaker 1: Ceilings like backyards so big. Now, there may be some
Speaker 1: elk back there. I one one couldn't be sure. On
Speaker 1: the grand estate that I live on the windows, who
Speaker 1: would maybe my long people run into them sometimes, Oh
Speaker 1: you mean on the far back there. We've still never made.
Speaker 3: The veg is what I call.
Speaker 1: It takes a fortnite to get all the way out there,
Speaker 1: so we're not unable to. While we're in our animal
Speaker 1: dump segment here.
Speaker 2: I mean, I wish I would have known we were
Speaker 2: doing a bird segment.
Speaker 3: I would have.
Speaker 1: I have one more animal related thing, and I think
Speaker 1: this is one of the most adorable things I've seen
Speaker 1: in a while. Do you guys remember the show Beef.
Speaker 1: The show Beef, which is about the person with road rage.
Speaker 1: It's back for another season and there's an animal in it.
Speaker 1: And at the premiere for Beef, they the little dog
Speaker 1: that stars in this new season of the TV series
Speaker 1: Beef showed up on the red carpet and it's so
Speaker 1: freaking cute. All right, nothing is better to me. It's
Speaker 1: a wiener dog on on the red carpet. It's like
Speaker 1: a gray carpet or blue crub. My favorite thing is
Speaker 1: the camera people talking to this dog like it can understand.
Speaker 2: Them its legs right now it is.
Speaker 1: It's up on its hind legs with its little paws up.
Speaker 1: This little Wiener dog from the next season of Beef.

Speaker 1: at this.
Speaker 2: Carl will never make the movies.
Speaker 1: Uh it's I mean, this is a special dog. This
Speaker 1: is a dog that is probably been beaten into submission
Speaker 1: over the years.
Speaker 5: I think Lexi would probably be a good extra in
Speaker 5: a movie they if they had such thing as dog extras,
Speaker 5: just because she likes to sit.
Speaker 3: Around and do nothing, and it's like a perfect it's
Speaker 3: perfect extra work.
Speaker 1: So in your mind, there's like other dogs in the
Speaker 1: background that aren't the focus character.
Speaker 3: They don't get any lines.

Speaker 1: her out to the back nine, just out there, never

Speaker 1: to the victim's son. These people. The problem is when
Speaker 1: you start to go up to somebody who's got their
Speaker 1: dog on no leash. They got their dog just pooping
Speaker 1: on random yards. They're not picking it up. These are
Speaker 1: the type of animals who are also willing to kick
Speaker 1: an old lady in the face. So yeah, you gotta
Speaker 1: be careful. It's a dangerous front to be on. Speaking
Speaker 1: of dangerous, deputies are warning deputies are warning parents after
Speaker 1: kids on e bikes are playing a new version of
Speaker 1: an old game.
Speaker 3: And this is absolutely stupid. I saw this morning.
Speaker 1: I mean, you might think it looks fun, but it's
Speaker 1: a dangerous idea and a stupid one. And I think
Speaker 1: probably only two kids are doing it. But deputies warn
Speaker 1: parents after kids on e bikes are playing a real
Speaker 1: life version of Frogger and traffic. They're out there playing
Speaker 1: Frogger these kids, and authorities and Flagler County are urging
Speaker 1: parents to supervise their children. Good luck with that, Flagler County,
Speaker 1: please watch your kids. No deputy said. Kids were seen
Speaker 1: running into traffic, climbing on park structures, and riding electric
Speaker 1: bikes across restricted areas. Some of them were playing a
Speaker 1: life version of the game Frogger, creating a dangerous situation
Speaker 1: for both drivers and pedestrians. About thirty or so middle
Speaker 1: school age children were responsible for this, and there's no
Speaker 1: way to fix this save for punishing the parents, because
Speaker 1: we have so many parents of these, like middle school
Speaker 1: age kids that hands off just go out, but nothing
Speaker 1: we can do about it, and just the kid and
Speaker 1: the kids go, oh, my parents don't care. And we
Speaker 1: all grew up with at least one friend where their
Speaker 1: parents didn't care. And in my case, that kid was
Speaker 1: smoking Marlboro Reds at eleven, and you know, buying prostitutes
Speaker 1: at fifteen.
Speaker 5: And you know there's somebody who bought prostitutes at fifteen.
Speaker 1: I think so. I think he was up to that.
Speaker 1: His name is Joel, and Joel was the kid man.
Speaker 1: Joel was my friend, and his parents didn't care. And
Speaker 1: all the Joels are bad, Yeah, all the Joels Joel's
Speaker 1: are not great. And Joel is the kid who also
Speaker 1: brought his father's filthy magazines to class and then put
Speaker 1: them into his desk. And then I was looking at
Speaker 1: one and he was looking at one, and we both
Speaker 1: got in trouble in third grade.
Speaker 2: And then over the pants stuff with Joel had.
Speaker 1: A lot of Joels, a lot of Joel's out there.
Speaker 1: But Joel was a problem kid because his parents didn't care.
Speaker 1: And when the the parents don't care, it turns into
Speaker 1: all these kids.
Speaker 3: Look at Chicago.
Speaker 1: All the violence that you see in Chicago, all on
Speaker 1: the South Side, mostly in the same neighborhoods. As the
Speaker 1: thing that they have in common most of them. People
Speaker 1: will start to make arguments like, so it's because they're
Speaker 1: poor Sean. Racists will be like, because Shawn is because
Speaker 1: they're all black, because they're in gang Sean. The thing
Speaker 1: that they all have them one hundred percent of them
Speaker 1: in common, is that they have parents that are paying
Speaker 1: no attention to what they're doing.
Speaker 3: And so that's why they end up at.
Speaker 1: Twelve years old with the gun robbing places because nobody
Speaker 1: is telling them.
Speaker 13: No.
Speaker 1: They don't have a father in their life much less
Speaker 1: of you know, a mother who's like doting on them
Speaker 1: or punishing them, doing all the things you need to
Speaker 1: just a catastrophe. A Florida man has been arrested after
Speaker 1: pranking a deputy. Here's what happened. A South Florida man
Speaker 1: went into a store and went up to a police officer,
Speaker 1: a sheriff's officer at in academy sports. He goes, you
Speaker 1: got to check this out. Alexis Martinez Arisala, twenty five
Speaker 1: years old, approached the officer and.
Speaker 3: Said, you got to look at this.
Speaker 1: Somebody's busting into your police car right now, here's the
Speaker 1: video of it. And he showed the video to the
Speaker 1: sheriff's officer of some people breaking into his vehicle. Two
Speaker 1: individuals were entering the vehicle. The problem was when the
Speaker 1: comp went outside, the whole thing was fake. He made
Speaker 1: the video with AI. They arrested him for fabricating evidence,
Speaker 1: which I've never heard of this before, but that's kind
Speaker 1: of crazy to consider. Yeah, he fled to San Juan,
Speaker 1: Puerto Rico and they brought him back. He's facing charges
Speaker 1: of fabricating physical evidence in the case.
Speaker 5: And finally that MAUI doc didn't he fabricate digital evidence?
Speaker 3: He did?
Speaker 1: Yeah, he fabricated digital whether they say it's specifically physical huh?
Speaker 3: Yeah? And also also is it evidence if there's no
Speaker 3: case yet.
Speaker 1: He's just a lawful use of a two way community
Speaker 1: to communicate, excuse me, a lawful use of a two
Speaker 1: way communication device. I can see that making a false report,
Speaker 1: I can see that, but yeah, fabricating physical evidence. But
Speaker 1: out on the mo list, that's a weird one. That's
Speaker 1: a very strange one. The Maui doctor who was accused
Speaker 1: of trying to kill his wife on a hike was found.
Speaker 3: Guilty by a jury. We all knew it was going
Speaker 3: to happen.
Speaker 1: Found guilty of attempted manslaughter. And this was the one
Speaker 1: where he tried to push her off the mountain and
Speaker 1: then he ended up smashing a rock on her head.
Speaker 1: And his own son testified against him in the courtroom.
Speaker 1: Pretty dramatic altogether. He closed his eyes and bowed his heaving.
Speaker 1: The verdict was ready faces twenty years in prison. When
Speaker 1: we come back, we'll get our updates in on the
Speaker 1: Hookers in Hopetown story. This couple out on the water
Speaker 1: Rocky Seas in the storms and they go missing. The
Speaker 1: woman goes missing. They say at least her husband does
Speaker 1: that she went overboard, but there's a lot of people
Speaker 1: thinking that he murdered her. The latest details coming up
Speaker 1: next on the news Chunkie. The story I've been following here,
Speaker 1: the Hookers in Hopetown, which is about this couple last
Speaker 1: named Hooker. They were in Hopetown of the Bahamas, and
Speaker 1: they went out on this little eight foot boat to
Speaker 1: get to their sailboat, and it was in really bad weather,
Speaker 1: in a storm, and the husband said, oh, my wife
Speaker 1: just fell overboard. I threw her a life preserver, but
Speaker 1: the waves got to be too big and I had
Speaker 1: to paddle back, and she had the keys attached to her,
Speaker 1: so you know, the boat wasn't worth workin anymore after
Speaker 1: she flopped out of it. And then very quickly we
Speaker 1: all became a bit suspicious of this guy. Now there's
Speaker 1: some stuff that goes to back up his case, but
Speaker 1: there's some stuff that makes this guy also look like
Speaker 1: maybe he had something to do with this. And the
Speaker 1: daughter of this woman who's missing and presumed dead is
Speaker 1: still speaking out in this case. And the daughter says
Speaker 1: that her mom did not just fall overboard.
Speaker 3: She doesn't believe it.
Speaker 1: The NBC news story says daughter of American woman missing
Speaker 1: in the Bahamas says mother was unlikely to.
Speaker 3: Quote just fall overboard. Carly Aylesworth.
Speaker 1: That's the daughter described her brother, Lynette Hooker fifty five,
Speaker 1: as an experienced mariner. She knew what she was doing
Speaker 1: out there. On the high seas, says the daughter. The
Speaker 1: daughter says, I don't believe the.
Speaker 5: Official story here an experienced mariner, but never drove.
Speaker 1: She drove at least out one time in that way.
Speaker 1: One picture on the little dinghy. Now, who was the one?
Speaker 1: Do you call it driving when it's a sailboat or
Speaker 1: do you call it sailings? I guess you would call
Speaker 1: it sailing instead. You wouldn't call it driving a sail boat.
Speaker 1: That seems like a dummy thing, right, I don't want
Speaker 1: to say that because people sale people will make fun
Speaker 1: of me. Carly Aylesworth, also calling him sale people will
Speaker 1: probably be enough to make fun of me. To begin with,
Speaker 1: Carly Aylesworth described her mother, Lynette Hooker fifty five, as
Speaker 1: an experienced mariner in a fit person. She was in
Speaker 1: good shape, she sang, who was unlikely to just fall
Speaker 1: off the boat. But that's what her husband, Brian Hooker
Speaker 1: fifty eight, has said has happened to her during this
Speaker 1: dinghy ride from Hopetown to Elbow, k according to local authorities.
Speaker 1: Then when he called her, he sounded quote monotone and relaxed.
Speaker 1: I was in shock, I said, my mom's missing. What
Speaker 1: Brian Hooker has not responded to NBC News's request for comment.
Speaker 1: He wrote Wednesday morning on a Facebook post that he
Speaker 1: was heartbroken over the res boat accident in unpredictable season
Speaker 1: high winds that caused my beloved Lynette to fall from
Speaker 1: our small dinghy near Lbok and the Bahamas. Again, that
Speaker 1: whole statement from him goes in the column against him.
Speaker 1: That was not great, to say the least. This is
Speaker 1: the next bit from the husband. He says, despite desperate
Speaker 1: attempts to reach her, the winds and currents drove us
Speaker 1: further apart. We continue to search for her and that
Speaker 1: is my sole focus in the moment. However, the authorities
Speaker 1: in Bahamas and the authorities in the United States of
Speaker 1: America both decided that they were going to push forward
Speaker 1: a criminal investigation against this guy. Now he's saying, what
Speaker 1: did he use the word unequivocally? He said he had
Speaker 1: nothing to do with it. Yeah, he didn't do it.
Speaker 1: Wasn't me, he said, absolutely, was not me. And somebody says,
Speaker 1: do you think this would be such a viral story
Speaker 1: if it wasn't for the hookers in Hopetown headline? That's
Speaker 1: only me pushing that so far. If I could get
Speaker 1: the media writ large, all the other people out there
Speaker 1: to buy into the Hookers and Hope Town the headline
Speaker 1: for this. I think that would work. That would be good.
Speaker 1: It would be second best to Kedemine Queen from earlier
Speaker 1: in the show. He added that his family is deeply
Speaker 1: grateful for audios involved. And what they did was the
Speaker 1: old you know, the oldest trick, the oldest trick in
Speaker 1: the book for law enforcement is that they go, we
Speaker 1: just want to.
Speaker 3: Talk to you.
Speaker 1: Your wife is gone, and I mean make sure we
Speaker 1: get the right information for me.
Speaker 3: Of course, of course I got nothing hid, I'll talk
Speaker 3: to you.
Speaker 1: And then the cops think that he did it the
Speaker 1: whole time, and they start leaning in and asking them questions.
Speaker 1: These Bahamian police officers probably dealt with something like this before.
Speaker 1: They documented part of their Bahamas trip on their TikTok
Speaker 1: and Instagram pages. Called the Sailing Hookers was the name
Speaker 1: of their their TikTok post. The last post over there
Speaker 1: had them sailing to Great Gowana, Ka as one of
Speaker 1: places they're playing this. Yeah, so they uh playing a
Speaker 1: little bit of a yacht rock on what they call
Speaker 1: their yacht, a very big sailboat and they're showing their
Speaker 1: mission around the Bahamas and Goana Ka and the Abbatue.
Speaker 2: Good thing going here.
Speaker 3: I did. It's beautiful.
Speaker 6: Actually, yeah, And they've been together for a long time
Speaker 6: a dingy because they were not getting.
Speaker 2: The views that they had hoped for. After all, maybe
Speaker 2: go pro videos somewhere to go.
Speaker 1: The more I see it this dinghy, the more I
Speaker 1: see the dinghy, the more dinghy like it looks. But
Speaker 1: did you see Hang on, let me go back to
Speaker 1: the beginning of this real quick. I'm showing this over
Speaker 1: on the stream on YouTube, and I'll pause this at
Speaker 1: the part that I was talking about. Okay, here's the map.
Speaker 1: They're showing themselves moving around the Bahamas. These are the
Speaker 1: you know hookers in Hopetown. Beautiful boat, just gorgeous sailboat
Speaker 1: that they're sharing their time on here retirement, I'm sure.
Speaker 1: And then here they are on the little dinghy.
Speaker 3: All right. Who's driving here?
Speaker 1: She's they're both. They're both by the motor because you
Speaker 1: don't have any choice to be anywhere else. They're both
Speaker 1: buy it. She's got a camera in her hand. She's
Speaker 1: got one of those three D cameras. That's what she's
Speaker 1: filming this stuff on three sixty three sixty it is yeah,
Speaker 1: it's like we want to there's like a pole, you know,
Speaker 1: hould the pole up in there? She's filming their adventures
Speaker 1: on this. Before this, there was nobody interacting with their stuff.
Speaker 1: Unfortunately for her. Now there's some interactions and she's.
Speaker 3: No longer around.
Speaker 1: Ooh, ooh, we got something. We got some dramatic comments
Speaker 1: over here. Another person in the sailing community, sailing Cat says, ugh, yep,
Speaker 1: swells have been nasty since the front, with another coming
Speaker 1: on the way we draw four feet of swells on
Speaker 1: this day. Then somebody says, damn, he did it. So
Speaker 1: very sorry for your loss, Very sorry. My deepest condolences
Speaker 1: is that the same comment somebody says, awesome posts, keep
Speaker 1: them coming about that. I saw an article in the
Speaker 1: New York Post. May she rip. That's tragic. Rest in peace.
Speaker 1: Look like y'all was living your best life. Sad to
Speaker 1: see what happened to you, beautiful. I'm very sorry for
Speaker 1: your lost. Almost every one of these posts was post
Speaker 1: them going missing, except for that Sailing Cat lady when
Speaker 1: she said the swells have been nasty since the front
Speaker 1: with another coming this was the day before she went missing.
Speaker 1: Then the sailing hookers responded about the nasty swells. I know,
Speaker 1: we'll be returning to MH, which I'm assuming is marsh Harbor, right. Yeah,
Speaker 1: we kept the mooring ball for the blow. That's sailor stuff.
Speaker 1: I'm hoping this is the last one. We need to
Speaker 1: start looking for a weather window to head back. Unfortunately.
Speaker 1: And then the other sailing person, sailing Cat, said, I know,
Speaker 1: so they're talking back and forth in the sailing community
Speaker 1: about what was going on, And she said, yeah, I know,
Speaker 1: it's really bad, really bad, but they still got in
Speaker 1: their little.
Speaker 2: Dinghy and no they know better than them.
Speaker 1: Seems like why, like, wouldn't you if it was really bad,
Speaker 1: just stay yeah, maybe stay.
Speaker 3: The night even I just don't know. I don't know.
Speaker 1: I don't know what people in these communities do because
Speaker 1: I'm not in the sailing community obviously.
Speaker 6: I mean, I did not grow up on a sailboat.
Speaker 6: I do not know anything about it. But my dad
Speaker 6: loved his boat and we would go on it very
Speaker 6: often to the Bahamas, even and very bad storms, even
Speaker 6: with the little dinghy that we had. You do not
Speaker 6: go out on it if you either stay anchored in
Speaker 6: or get close to the shore. But there's no way
Speaker 6: in hell they would take an eight foot dinghy out
Speaker 6: into the ocean.
Speaker 5: Yeah, well, there might not have been a lot of
Speaker 5: places for them to stay if that was the you know,
Speaker 5: the option they were looking at.
Speaker 3: And they sure they were on shore. They were on shure.
Speaker 1: Then they got in the dinghy. They were going to
Speaker 1: their sailboat. From the dinghy in the middle. Du uh,
Speaker 1: well wherever it was, I don't know this thing was.
Speaker 1: You know where they had the sailboat. I would assume
Speaker 1: was that harbor or the Abbot. Yeah, I think that's
Speaker 1: what they were. Where they were heading was to one
Speaker 1: of the harbor's Sean on YouTube says, this is all
Speaker 1: made up, ass Well, I mean, nothing about this is
Speaker 1: made up. The story that we know is that the
Speaker 1: woman is currently missing but probably presumed dead, that there
Speaker 1: was a back and forth in history with this guy,
Speaker 1: maybe he's made some comments that her daughter didn't like.
Speaker 1: Her daughter doesn't seem to believe the story that he tells,
Speaker 1: which is that she just fell off and went overboard.
Speaker 1: He says he's totally innocent. He says he tried to
Speaker 1: save her. The daughter says, I don't think that was
Speaker 1: the case. Those are all absolutely positively truths about this story.
Speaker 1: The rest are things that will probably learn along the way.
Speaker 1: But the idea that the Bahamian police in the United
Speaker 1: States the FEDS are investigating this as a crime right now,
Speaker 1: which is what they're doing, shows you that they probably
Speaker 1: think that people who are second guessing him might be
Speaker 1: on the right track, or at least they want to
Speaker 1: ask more questions.
Speaker 3: So nothing, no of that is fake. That's all very
Speaker 3: very much true, and that'll have to do it.
Speaker 1: The cops told Brian Hooker, though, that he was not
Speaker 1: a suspect in his wife's disappearance. Now it kind of
Speaker 1: looks like it because he was questioned by the police
Speaker 1: for over three hours. In this case, I let's go
Speaker 1: to you. Let's get some dispatches in. I've been quite
Speaker 1: bad about the dispatches today, but I think I can
Speaker 1: work in a few. Here is this is dead Dad Tim,
Speaker 1: All right, Dead Dad Tim. He's talking about something we
Speaker 1: discussed yesterday on the show.
Speaker 15: What's going On Junkies NY So listening to yesterday's podcast
Speaker 15: and he, guys, we're having a discussion about the whole
Speaker 15: lift Morgan live segment between her and Rock sand Oh.
Speaker 15: So the lady running into frames shoving live, that is
Speaker 15: Stephanie the care She is the Currants Women's World Champion
Speaker 15: and she is set to face Lift Morgan at WrestleMania.
Speaker 1: Yeah, he's talking about the WWE women where their heads
Speaker 1: smacked together and you can hear.
Speaker 5: Their goals, big ol' honk and hematomas on each head.
Speaker 1: Yeah, they ended up with these massive bruises on them.
Speaker 1: And there was two of the WWE women talking to
Speaker 1: each other and then another one went in and smacked
Speaker 1: against them and it hit their heads together.
Speaker 6: And then threw the one who was the worst golf
Speaker 6: ball size into a TV as well.
Speaker 1: Yeah, there wasn't enough, just that they hit their skulls together.
Speaker 1: The bit did not stop there. So that's what he's
Speaker 1: talking about.
Speaker 15: I believe it's next weekend or the following weekend. Over
Speaker 15: the past several months, they have been building this story
Speaker 15: and it's been getting very cheeted and very personal. Within
Speaker 15: the last several weeks, I think Stephanie unintentionally gave a
Speaker 15: little extra umph and that shove.
Speaker 1: Oh it could be Yeah, Well he's saying is getting
Speaker 1: heated and it was arranged that she was supposed to
Speaker 1: shove this woman, but maybe maybe she was a little
Speaker 1: mantle here. She shoved a little bit harder than she should.
Speaker 1: Wrestling talk, Yeah, I mean, I know we don't usually
Speaker 1: end up on wrestling talk. I know nothing about WWE
Speaker 1: stuff that's not my territory, so usually stay away from it.
Speaker 3: But I did think that clip was interesting. I stand
Speaker 3: by that for sure.
Speaker 2: To watch the big match.
Speaker 1: No, no, no, it's not No, it's not gonna be
Speaker 1: on my radar, I think, but if something cool happens
Speaker 1: about it and there's a clip or something afterwards, I'm
Speaker 1: certainly interested in seeing what happened. There a lot of
Speaker 1: people reaching out about the peacock situation, the peacock in
Speaker 1: my neighborhood.
Speaker 3: I'll look at those.
Speaker 1: There's some suggestions of places that might be able to
Speaker 1: help out, some experts, some wildlife people. Thank you very
Speaker 1: much for sending those. I really do appreciate that, and
Speaker 1: I will reach out and ask those people if they
Speaker 1: can help that peacock. Brenda emails the show talking about
Speaker 1: the hookers and uptown in the murder mystery case. I
Speaker 1: want to know how big her life insurance policy was,
Speaker 1: and I thought about the sharks right away, says this person. Yeah,
Speaker 1: there are sharks in this area of the Bahamas, so
Speaker 1: much so that when we were there, the power was out,
Speaker 1: and when the power was out, it went on for
Speaker 1: a while, and they had like in their local newspaper,
Speaker 1: they said, the power will continue to be out because
Speaker 1: there's sharks swimming around the area where there's like a
Speaker 1: broken cable, and so that because of.
Speaker 5: The sharks, I'm sort of part of the generator that
Speaker 5: needed replacing or fixing. There's something like that, whatever, whatever
Speaker 5: needed repair was underwater and there were sharks around it,
Speaker 5: and they said, we can't do anything about it. So
Speaker 5: did her husband, I think so, this person says, they
Speaker 5: think her husband knew about the sharks. If there's no body,
Speaker 5: how long could he be jailed for because there's no
Speaker 5: proof in that case.
Speaker 3: Love y'all, Happy Friday Eve.
Speaker 1: It'll be a big deal. If they find the body
Speaker 1: in this case, that will be a game changer. But
Speaker 1: the problem is if he didn't murder his wife, all right,
Speaker 1: If he didn't murder his wife and she just was
Speaker 1: bobbing into the water with no life preserver in the storm,
Speaker 1: it's possible that you never find her body because sharks,
Speaker 1: because the weather could pull her out and bring her
Speaker 1: god knows where. You may never see her body for that,
Speaker 1: or if he did intentionally do all of this, he
Speaker 1: may have made it so you don't ever see her
Speaker 1: body again on purpose. So there's two things working against them.
Speaker 5: Why they stopped off at that little place for dinner
Speaker 5: to have iron weights, you know, just iron weight soup.
Speaker 1: True a little fast goes right to the bottom, tips
Speaker 1: the news Junkie dot Com k emails, Hello junkies, I
Speaker 1: hope all is well. My thoughts on the overboard situation
Speaker 1: of the Bahamas aar. If I was wanting to get
Speaker 1: rid of or kill somebody, I'd probably take them out
Speaker 1: under the same weather, high waves and drinking getting drunk
Speaker 1: conditions as he did, as to make my intentions appear
Speaker 1: to be an accident, says.
Speaker 2: Kay, question trying to murder anybody.
Speaker 1: He's essentially doing the always sunny bit here, you know,
Speaker 1: because of the implications is.
Speaker 5: What he is doing that except that you know, if
Speaker 5: your whole goal is to get rid of somebody, and
Speaker 5: you're like, you know what I'm gonna do? Take them
Speaker 5: out in very dangerous weather. Well that could boase a
Speaker 5: significant risk to you as well.
Speaker 3: It could.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, we still are at the beginning of this case.
Speaker 1: There's a lot of twists and turns, and I'm interested
Speaker 1: to see what happens next, and we'll keep you updated
Speaker 1: on that for sure. When we come back, I've got
Speaker 1: clips galore. We'll do a grab bag segment because I
Speaker 1: was just looking and I said, damn, I have so
Speaker 1: many things that we have not gotten to. One of
Speaker 1: the things I'll play for you when we come back
Speaker 1: is something we have been cheering on. We have been
Speaker 1: cheering it on, but things are taking a turn. What
Speaker 1: is it you're gonna find out that's coming up next
Speaker 1: on the News Chunky. You can always get the podcast, Hey,
Speaker 1: podcasters out there in podcast land, you could always get
Speaker 1: the podcast over at thenewschunkie dot com. As we roll
Speaker 1: on in the show, or even watch everything look into
Speaker 1: the featured section of the website, which is at thenewsjunkie
Speaker 1: dot com. Okay, Sabrina sent over an update on the
Speaker 1: armless Legless guy who was also a corn Hoole champion,
Speaker 1: who is also accused of murdering his friend after getting
Speaker 1: in a fight in his car trying to get his
Speaker 1: friends covered up, but they didn't want to do that.
Speaker 3: That guy. Uh.
Speaker 1: The problem is, last time I played a video of
Speaker 1: this guy, I.
Speaker 2: Got conn sending it over.
Speaker 3: But there is.
Speaker 1: Uh, I'll be very careful. Last time I played a
Speaker 1: clip from this guy, he looks like he has boobs
Speaker 1: when he is upside down.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 1: He when when I played the clip from him last time,
Speaker 1: it ended up with a week long ban on YouTube
Speaker 1: because YouTube is like, you can't stream with guns, and
Speaker 1: I'm like, I am not the armless legless man. I
Speaker 1: am not streaming with guns. In the new video, the
Speaker 1: mpute murder suspect snorts off of a dollar bill and
Speaker 1: you can imagine what was on that probably and then
Speaker 1: shot a gun out the window. I'm not gonna play
Speaker 1: it here just because I don't want to risk it.
Speaker 1: It's not worth it.
Speaker 2: But he definitely going on in that clip.
Speaker 3: Dayton James Weber is the what do you have at me?
Speaker 3: Looking at what you're looking at? Yeah?
Speaker 1: You can show this, Yeah, this is the This is
Speaker 1: him upside down. And then somebody who's filming has a
Speaker 1: dollar bill and they're putting it by his nose and
Speaker 1: he snorts whatever's on that dollar bill, and then he
Speaker 1: goes over to the window and he grabs a gun
Speaker 1: and starts shooting. And somebody says, this is this video
Speaker 1: is f crazy. The guy's insane. He's definitely a strange individual. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and he's into some stuff, but now he's up on
Speaker 1: a murder charge. Dayton James Weber, the quadruple amputee who
Speaker 1: finds himself at the center of a murder case. All right,
Speaker 1: let's see, I got a couple other things that I
Speaker 1: wanted to work in here. We have been cheering on something,
Speaker 1: and I got bad news about the thing we've been
Speaker 1: cheering on. We've been cheering on something repeatedly on the
Speaker 1: show called the grappler, and the grappler is such an
Speaker 1: interesting invention. Police across the country have been starting to
Speaker 1: install this on their vehicles, and whether there's a police
Speaker 1: chase like Batman or something, the cop car pulls up
Speaker 1: behind the vehicle, shoots the grappler at the car and
Speaker 1: then reels the car in and stops the police chase
Speaker 1: before anybody can get hurt. And it has worked out
Speaker 1: so great in so many cases. Unfortunately, this is not
Speaker 1: one of those cases. The grappler back in action on
Speaker 1: the show. This is in California. I'm looking at the
Speaker 1: police car behind a vehicle here and they're trying to grapple.
Speaker 12: It in excess of a safe speed.
Speaker 1: Now what the The car that they were trying to
Speaker 1: grapple here in California did not get pulled in Like
Speaker 1: all the other cases that we've seen, a vehicle traveling,
Speaker 1: it slid off and crashed into a wall and then
Speaker 1: crashed into another wall, almost hit a house.
Speaker 3: Know what the protocol is for?
Speaker 1: Uh? This guy over here is just shocked out of
Speaker 1: his mind. He was along the side of his house
Speaker 1: when he lives right along an interstate and a car
Speaker 1: crashed into the wall right by his house. The grappler
Speaker 1: did not work out this time. Is that the same
Speaker 1: grappler we've been watching though?
Speaker 5: I thought they shot something into the car and it
Speaker 5: like latches.
Speaker 3: This one's a little bit slows it down. This one
Speaker 3: scoops it. They try to scoop it. This this's a
Speaker 3: different thing. Usually we're seeing like a toe cable or something.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's like the Batman shooting out something and then
Speaker 1: it instincts on the car and then they pull it
Speaker 1: in and in this case, they try to scoop up
Speaker 1: the tires and then we're going way too fast and
Speaker 1: so this car just crashed through this wall. Unfortunately it
Speaker 1: didn't go well for all involved. There. Man and his
Speaker 1: backyard was seen running just as the car made contact
Speaker 1: with the wall. It's unclear if the suspect is injured,
Speaker 1: but the grappler or grappler light, I don't even really
Speaker 1: know if that's the actual grappler itself not going as
Speaker 1: well as it could have in that situation. Also file
Speaker 1: this under excellent posts. Johnny Micro how many?
Speaker 3: How many? Put?
Speaker 1: You got sixty seven thousand views on this? He deserves more.
Speaker 1: Johnny Micro posted gimme fuel, gimme fire, give me all
Speaker 1: your fing money. And it's Metallica's upcoming concert. Where's the
Speaker 1: mohegan Son Arena? Where is it's? Is that the one
Speaker 1: that's in Connecticut? Or is that Las Vegas? Mohegan's Son
Speaker 1: Arena is where Metallica is playing. But that's a Sino Yeah,
Speaker 1: uncas Field, Connecticut. Give me fuel, give me fire, give
Speaker 1: me all your fing money. And it shows the Metallica show.
Speaker 1: I'm trying to see what the cheapest one that I'm
Speaker 1: looking at, is one thousand, one hundred and twelve is
Speaker 1: the lowest price? Yeah, for one crappy seat to this
Speaker 1: Metallica concert. One hundred twelve dollars for a good seat
Speaker 1: three thousand, seven hundred and forty seven dollars.
Speaker 2: Is that all your sale, give me.
Speaker 3: Fire, get all your fing weeting.
Speaker 5: It looks like the seats are going for more than
Speaker 5: like what looks.
Speaker 3: Like the floor.
Speaker 1: The floor is one thousand, eight hundred and five for
Speaker 1: like the pit area around the stage.
Speaker 3: Is that I wonder if there's.
Speaker 5: Something about those thirty seven hundred dollars seats that is
Speaker 5: included in it or something maybe arena it only holds
Speaker 5: ten thousand people. That's kind of low for a Metallica concert.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's a that's a tighter Metallica concert. But still
Speaker 1: if every every ticket we're looking at, and I love
Speaker 1: how it says amazing by some of the prices amazing.
Speaker 1: Only twelve hundred and sixty nine dollars to see Metallica
Speaker 1: play at the Mohican.
Speaker 3: Sun are amazing compared to the thirty seven hundred dollars.
Speaker 1: Tickets I guess so, Yeah, it's amazing in comparison to
Speaker 1: just how unhinge the other tickets.
Speaker 5: On bottom right, the one, one, and twelve dollars tickets
Speaker 5: have gone down.
Speaker 1: It's got a green arrow pointing down next to why
Speaker 1: not dollar signs.
Speaker 3: Yes, yeah, it means good. Right.
Speaker 1: Are you a Metallica fan who also works the minimum
Speaker 1: wag wage job? Well, guess what. That's what Klarna and
Speaker 1: after pay services are there for. You buy this today
Speaker 1: and then in just nine hundred and forty eight payments
Speaker 1: you could pay off your Metallica tickets.
Speaker 3: They used to be twenty.
Speaker 1: Dollars, but now they're a lot more. For the Mohegan
Speaker 1: Sun Arena, I.
Speaker 5: Think there's a pretty popular venue for tours to hit,
Speaker 5: even though it's a little bit on the small side
Speaker 5: and like part of a casino.
Speaker 6: I would love to see how that concert ends up.
Speaker 6: As far as audience numbers, are there really that many
Speaker 6: people they're willing to pay over a thousand dollars to
Speaker 6: be in there?
Speaker 3: If they are, that's okay.
Speaker 1: Imagine the average seat is twelve hundred bucks and they
Speaker 1: have ten thousand people in there.
Speaker 3: That's that's big money. That is a.
Speaker 2: Big good show.
Speaker 3: You're pulling in a.
Speaker 1: Lot of money, pulling this off. I think, well, we'll
Speaker 1: see when you think about this Metallica fans, would you
Speaker 1: pay that much? That seems a little steep to me.
Speaker 1: Another thing I wanted to match because it's going viral
Speaker 1: out there this week. There's an article from slash Film
Speaker 1: that's getting a lot of attention and it's about a
Speaker 1: show that's gained some popularity as of late. And the
Speaker 1: show is called The Pit. Many of you might have
Speaker 1: seen The Pit, love it, and I think this is
Speaker 1: so true. The headline is many fans of the show
Speaker 1: The Pit are proving that yes, it's possible to be
Speaker 1: bad at watching.
Speaker 3: A TV show.
Speaker 1: And it goes into the culture of people people who
Speaker 1: watched this show and how absolutely unhinged many of them are.
Speaker 1: Many of the fans of this show The Pit, whether
Speaker 1: it's like wanting more and like having unreasonable expectations out
Speaker 1: of some of the characters that they are attracted to,
Speaker 1: wanting storylines because they're used to Gray's Anatomy or something
Speaker 1: that are different than The Pit wants to offer you.
Speaker 1: Because from what I could tell, The Pit is kind
Speaker 1: of trying to be realistic, so the story on the
Speaker 1: Pit isn't as far fetched as you might see in
Speaker 1: some other story it would be something that would be
Speaker 1: so unbelievable.
Speaker 5: There are some out there storylines and just stuff that
Speaker 5: happens in the show. I think they're kind of going
Speaker 5: a little I thought they were going a little extreme
Speaker 5: on some of the stuff that happens. There's always, without
Speaker 5: a doubt, a moment watching the Pit where I go,
Speaker 5: thank god we weren't eating, thank god dinner is over.
Speaker 5: There are some gross moments in that show.
Speaker 6: You're not going to connect those storylines because the whole
Speaker 6: premises each episode is one hour of the shift, and
Speaker 6: granted it is very from what I understand, very realistic
Speaker 6: as far as the medical issues. It's a lot for
Speaker 6: one day, but you're not going to get the fan
Speaker 6: fiction that a lot of people are trying to drum up,
Speaker 6: Like there's one moment where these two doctors are in
Speaker 6: the same scene and you know there's sexual tension, can't
Speaker 6: wait to see them bang it out, and it's not
Speaker 6: going to happen.
Speaker 1: I've seen some clips of this show that were very
Speaker 1: cringe like super political moments that they've worked into the
Speaker 1: Pit that I was like, oh my, like so ham
Speaker 1: fisted and clumsy and but people really do like it.
Speaker 1: There's a lot of people that do like it. We
Speaker 1: haven't had that experience. You didn't see that, did you
Speaker 1: see the ice clip?
Speaker 3: Yeah? I haven't that bad.
Speaker 1: It was like so to me, just so humsily wrapped
Speaker 1: into this show where they the doctor at the hospital
Speaker 1: is like arrested by ice in the middle of the
Speaker 1: shift at the hospital. It's like to me, that seemed
Speaker 1: cringe to each their own. I'm sure you know you
Speaker 1: have a different take on it from you, but I
Speaker 1: thought that was cringe, especially a separated on its own.
Speaker 1: The clip that I watched the first episode that I
Speaker 1: try to watch, I just it wasn't for me. I mean,
Speaker 1: I don't dislike hospital based shows, but it didn't pull
Speaker 1: me in like it did a lot of other people.
Speaker 1: But I will tell you something genius about it, all right,
Speaker 1: for you pit lovers. You don't need to torch me
Speaker 1: alive here because I'm not on board with your show.
Speaker 1: I will tell you something genius about it. When they
Speaker 1: do a show like this, it's really easier for them
Speaker 1: to crank out episodes because almost all of it occurs
Speaker 1: within a set of a hospital, and they can film
Speaker 1: at three am. Or three PM or any time. So
Speaker 1: while other show are struggling so hard to try to
Speaker 1: get another season out, and they'll maybe release the season
Speaker 1: of their show and then maybe three years later you
Speaker 1: might see another season and people forgot about what was
Speaker 1: going on. The Pit is the only one that consistently
Speaker 1: cranking out content now because of the way that they
Speaker 1: film it, and that is a pretty smart thing to
Speaker 1: do for a show like that. This is what's troubling
Speaker 1: to me is some viewers seem to be treeing The
Speaker 1: Pit like a puzzle to be solved. They approached the
Speaker 1: show the way fans used to be. Become obsessed with
Speaker 1: the show lost that one didn't go well in the end,
Speaker 1: a mystery box series that became appointment viewing and broke
Speaker 1: everybody's TV watching brains in the process. Unfortunately, I think
Speaker 1: this program many viewers to assume all shows released in
Speaker 1: the wake of Loss were following this blueprint. The Pit
Speaker 1: is not a mystery box show. They say, there's a
Speaker 1: whole thing about this. They go into ripping apart fans
Speaker 1: of The Pit for being way too intense, usually the
Speaker 1: characters that they see on screen.
Speaker 5: I mean, as far as trying to solve the puzzle.
Speaker 5: Usually that's my wife thing when we're watching TV or
Speaker 5: or especially a movie or something.
Speaker 1: What did we Oh, we watched Scream seven the other day.
Speaker 1: Uh well, I mean it's is that the newest one?
Speaker 3: Yes?
Speaker 13: No?
Speaker 5: And uh she said, you know, it was act one
Speaker 5: and they're introducing the different characters and stuff, and they
Speaker 5: come by somebody and she goes, that's the murder.
Speaker 3: That's that's that's, that's the murderer.
Speaker 7: You know.
Speaker 5: I wasn't super invested in Scream seven. I was probably
Speaker 5: on my laptop half.
Speaker 3: At the time.
Speaker 5: And then I I got up and went to the
Speaker 5: bathroom and while I'm peeing and I had left the
Speaker 5: door open, and she's.
Speaker 1: Like, I do it.
Speaker 3: I called it the whole time. Okay, it the whole time.
Speaker 1: That movie went on forever. Man, Okay, we're gonna take
Speaker 1: a quick break and when we come back, we're gonna
Speaker 1: do this. We're gonna do the final dispatches, stories that
Speaker 1: didn't make the cut, and of course today learn to
Speaker 1: wrap everything up for a Thursday. That's all coming up
Speaker 1: next on the News Junkie on the Way Out, Final
Speaker 1: Dispatches Stories that didn't make the cut and today learned
Speaker 1: to wrap everything up for a Thursday. We'll see what
Speaker 1: you got for us in the last minute. Here, let's
Speaker 1: you know, let's get into the final dispatches first, since
Speaker 1: I've been bad at those.
Speaker 3: Today, as per usual, are.
Speaker 5: The final dispatches, but Sean will probably ownly table.
Speaker 1: I gotta tell you we have a little more time
Speaker 1: than yesterday because Sea Lane didn't screw up her timing
Speaker 1: once again on the show, but still still limited. Still
Speaker 1: limited in the time, so we can all more limited.
Speaker 10: For stuff it was.
Speaker 3: I can keep going.
Speaker 1: I'd like to play this dispatch, but now you're really
Speaker 1: sandbagging me here. All right, I'm gonna play this. Not
Speaker 1: that one, No, not that one. Here's a daddy, Daddy
Speaker 1: two times, daddy.
Speaker 3: Two times with the dispatch. Hello, one of us, wasson
Speaker 3: one of us.
Speaker 12: You now know how a lot of callers felt when
Speaker 12: the station first got the ability to identify those calling in. Right,
Speaker 12: even though you may be saying something that is truthful,
Speaker 12: that is honest, that makes perfect sense.
Speaker 1: Now that the hosts and co hosts, no, it's.
Speaker 3: You that said it.
Speaker 12: You're like, oh man, did I did.
Speaker 3: I say that the right way? Should I have said
Speaker 3: that I don't know. I say that all the time.
Speaker 1: It is bro Yeah, all kinds of things come back
Speaker 1: to haunt me, and not not right or wrong. More
Speaker 1: so just like, oh God, I could have phrasing phrasing Sean,
Speaker 1: we could have done that in a different way. But
Speaker 1: that'll have to do it. That'll be the last one.
Speaker 1: Let me see if they emails need to come in.
Speaker 1: So many people helping me with the peacock situation, I
Speaker 1: swear to God, I will call the people that you
Speaker 1: have suggested. I will try to do the best by
Speaker 1: this peacock. Let's see what we have for stories that didn't.
Speaker 3: Make the cut. If there's anything else the peacock. The
Speaker 3: peacock is hurting man.
Speaker 1: He's got a busted ass leg, got a busted leg boots,
Speaker 1: he says. Wtf is he talking about? I don't know
Speaker 1: exactly what he was referring to.
Speaker 2: They're got the leg off right, so don't.
Speaker 1: I don't know what Daddy two times was talking about
Speaker 1: specifically there, but I guess it's just about, uh, something
Speaker 1: coming back to haunt you or something. I'm sure he's
Speaker 1: I'm sure he's talking about something specific. The Iranian ceasefire
Speaker 1: is still shaky, but I guess hanging out because when
Speaker 1: I look at the markets, it's good news over there.
Speaker 1: The Dow is still not at fifty thousand, but it's
Speaker 1: getting closer by the day, up two hundred and seventy
Speaker 1: four points. Right now at forty eight four four oh one.
Speaker 1: K's rocketing back a little bit. Let's get to that
Speaker 1: fifty thousand mark, though, shall we. I would like that.
Speaker 1: I would think that would be to hear.
Speaker 5: Speaking of Pam BONDI that she's trying not to testify
Speaker 5: at this thing she was subpoenad for, because she says
Speaker 5: she was subpoened as the attorney general and now that
Speaker 5: she's not Attorney general anymore, she doesn't have to show up.
Speaker 1: Okay, I saw it. I saw some stories about that,
Speaker 1: and I didn't I couldn't tell if they didn't want
Speaker 1: her anymore, or if it was like she was saying,
Speaker 1: I'm not in that job anymore. I think she's still
Speaker 1: gonna have to testify, though.
Speaker 5: I think that's what they're trying to get. You know,
Speaker 5: they're pushing for it.
Speaker 1: They don't care if you're now in that job. They
Speaker 1: care about. The thing they're investigating is Congress if.
