Speaker 2: We'll get into all this in just a moment here
Speaker 2: on the show. Let's start off as we always do.
Speaker 2: Listen to our ears the ground, our fingers on the pulse,
Speaker 2: lis see what's happening in this great, big wide world
Speaker 2: of ours and we go to a FedEx store Sea Lane. Yes, indeed,
Speaker 2: indeed it's right. We go to a FedEx store. Why well, uh,
Speaker 2: there's a guy who came to pick up his package
Speaker 2: at the FedEx store. And let's just let's just watch.
Speaker 2: We'll see what happens here. We'll describe it for everybody.
Speaker 2: Here's the gentleman showing up to get his FedEx package.
Speaker 3: I got a thing for him.
Speaker 2: It's now I don't know yet, all right. It said
Speaker 2: on this side of the box that this guy got
Speaker 2: at this FedEx. It said live animals. Temperature is sensitive. Right,
Speaker 2: they're shipping live animals.
Speaker 4: This is not some sort of like animal trafficking. This
Speaker 4: shouldn't have been a surprise to anyone. She knew there's
Speaker 4: an animal in there.
Speaker 5: Yeah, she knew, it says right in the box.
Speaker 2: I am kind of amazed that you can buy live
Speaker 2: animals through the mail. Like you want me to ship
Speaker 2: you something, sure, i'll ship it to you.
Speaker 1: Here it is.
Speaker 2: I'll just put it in a box, tape it up,
Speaker 2: just like it's a T shirt or something. And that's
Speaker 2: what they did here. And then the guy goes, oh, yeah,
Speaker 2: there has been.
Speaker 4: A couple of inadvertent live animals have been shipped out
Speaker 4: with our T shirt. It's here or there, small one.
Speaker 2: Here He goes the iguana Paul's ass out of the
Speaker 2: box that it was shipped in and starts chasing all
Speaker 2: of the FedEx workers all around this. You don't say,
Speaker 2: I mean, who would have thought the iguana?
Speaker 5: This is like Celia I was. I was horrified. One time.
Speaker 2: I was with an X one time on a flight
Speaker 2: and she was flying with her her cat. She was
Speaker 2: bringing her cat with her in a little cage and
Speaker 2: she kept, like, you know, trying to make sure the
Speaker 2: cat was okay in the cage. And at one point
Speaker 2: she's like, I'm gonna pet her, and she opens the
Speaker 2: door to the cage and the cat jumps out of
Speaker 2: the cage and crawls over the top of the seat
Speaker 2: and then crawls down like five or six rows of chairs.
Speaker 2: And now now we're looking for the cat hiding under
Speaker 2: somebody's chair on a flight, And I'm shouldn't.
Speaker 4: That be like the number one rule is don't open
Speaker 4: the cage. Yeah, don't show open the cage.
Speaker 2: Yeah. This guy's like, you want to see the iguana,
Speaker 2: I'll take it out here.
Speaker 6: You go.
Speaker 1: Lost feet.
Speaker 2: Oh no, yet he just buy these things to the mail.
Speaker 2: They're hitting the deck at seventy's just like.
Speaker 4: I mean to be fair, though, that iguana went for it,
Speaker 4: like as soon as it saw, you know, light, because
Speaker 4: it's probably pretty dark in that box the whole time
Speaker 4: in that white bag, as soon as it saw that
Speaker 4: there was an ounce of freedom, a breath of fresh air,
Speaker 4: it was hauling ass.
Speaker 2: Who would have thunk it that the the giant lizard
Speaker 2: that you shipped in a box across the world would
Speaker 2: haul ass when you finally let it out of its enclosure.
Speaker 4: And he just told her it was six feet and
Speaker 4: so like even if it's like if it was inaccurate
Speaker 4: or he was just kind of teasing her, the bag's
Speaker 4: moving around like you know, crazy, I would be.
Speaker 2: I would be a little little freaked out too. I
Speaker 2: have to tell you. When I see stuff like this,
Speaker 2: I'm like, why are we Why are we allowed to
Speaker 2: do this? Why are we allowed to ship gina iguanas
Speaker 2: I could buy fish if I wanted to?
Speaker 5: Why am I allowed to buy fish?
Speaker 2: Why is somebody allowed to take a fish out of
Speaker 2: a tank, put it in a plastic bag and ship
Speaker 2: it across the country. The only thing I could think
Speaker 2: of is, at least we have evolved, because at one
Speaker 2: point in time, you used to be able to mail
Speaker 2: your kids. You can put your kids through the Postal Service, right,
Speaker 2: and at least we've moved on past that step. Are
Speaker 2: the Postal Service?
Speaker 1: Yeah?
Speaker 2: Yeah, you never heard this. Oh my go wait, hold on,
Speaker 2: you used to be able to mail kids. That's a
Speaker 2: strange thing to search all right, here we go when
Speaker 2: people used to use the Postal Service to mail their children.
Speaker 2: This is from history dot Com. Gotta be legit. Right.
Speaker 2: In the early days of the US Parcel Service, there
Speaker 2: weren't clear guidelines about what you could and couldn't mail,
Speaker 2: and the story says in January nineteen thirteen, an Ohio
Speaker 2: couple took advantage of the US Postal Service's new parcel
Speaker 2: service to make a very special delivery their infant son.
Speaker 2: They paid fifteen cents for his stamps in an unknown
Speaker 2: amount to insure him for fifty bucks. That's it.
Speaker 4: They got fifty bucks of insurance. But that's nineteen thirteen.
Speaker 4: I want to get that insurance though, just in case
Speaker 4: you might as well. Then they handed him over to
Speaker 4: the mailman who dropped the boy off at his grandmother's house.
Speaker 2: A mile away. A mile yeah. Yeah. Regulations about what
Speaker 2: you couldn't couldn't send through the mail, we're vague. This
Speaker 2: is like an early uber. Basically, this is the mailman
Speaker 2: shows up in nineteen thirteen. I'm here with the mailse
Speaker 2: what mail would you like? And the mailman shows up
Speaker 2: and they go, we'd like you to take this infant
Speaker 2: to another house. Here's some postage. We want the insurance. Yes, please,
Speaker 2: and thank you. You used to be able to do this.
Speaker 2: Now we just send giant lizards. That's what we do.
Speaker 2: I don't know if this is right or wrong. You
Speaker 2: could let me know how you feel about it. Send
Speaker 2: that over it with your dispatches on the newsjunkie dot
Speaker 2: com today. All right, many things to work through, and
Speaker 2: I did want to share this. I made a short
Speaker 2: video out of this yesterday. But this is just for you.
Speaker 2: I mean, this is just for you. If you're having
Speaker 2: a tough day at work, if you're if you're out
Speaker 2: there struggling trying to get through today, you ain't got
Speaker 2: nothing on some of the people out there. I just
Speaker 2: want to make that as clear as possible, because I
Speaker 2: saw this god. He was working in a sign. Okay,
Speaker 2: that was his job for the day. He was working
Speaker 2: in a sign. Did you see this video? I saw
Speaker 2: what you posted. Yeah, okay. The guy was working inside
Speaker 2: of a sign. Now when I say that, you might
Speaker 2: hear that escape my mouth and think, well, yeah, Sean,
Speaker 2: he was working inside of a sign. It was a
Speaker 2: sign like ten fifteen feet off of the ground. No,
Speaker 2: this was one that was near like an interstate or something. Obviously,
Speaker 2: because the sign you know, like the ones that shoot
Speaker 2: way up in the air, correct, like one hundred and
Speaker 2: thirty hundred and forty feet up in the air. And
Speaker 2: the guy got stuck inside the sign. Up there, stuck
Speaker 2: inside a gas station sign, one hundred and thirty feet
Speaker 2: up in the air. Your day is not going as
Speaker 2: poorly as his was, Okay, And here's what happened.
Speaker 6: Look at that thumbs up.
Speaker 7: The man appeared to be in good spirits despite being
Speaker 7: stranded inside this massive truck stop sign.
Speaker 2: For Cosy.
Speaker 7: Fire official say the worker was doing maintenance near the
Speaker 7: Lorenzo Road exit off I fifty five in Wilmington when
Speaker 7: that lift that got him up there insta problem that
Speaker 7: happened around eleven twos.
Speaker 2: So he got up there in this lift, This giant
Speaker 2: lift gets him way up into the air and it's,
Speaker 2: you know, one hundred and thirty feet up, and he
Speaker 2: crawls into this sign and he's working on the sign
Speaker 2: and stuff and all is going well, and then the
Speaker 2: suspension or whatever on the lift starts to fall and
Speaker 2: it starts shrinking down, and he's like what And he
Speaker 2: sees the lift just shrinking back down to the ground
Speaker 2: away from him.
Speaker 5: So they call out the fire department.
Speaker 2: Problem is, the fire department only has one hundred foot
Speaker 2: ladders and he's one hundred and thirty feet up the apartment.
Speaker 5: They're like, ah, we can't get to you here.
Speaker 2: So they have to get a ladder from like two
Speaker 2: cities away, three cities away, and they give it a
Speaker 2: police escort all the way to the scene so they
Speaker 2: can help this guy.
Speaker 7: Same morning, the sign stands about one hundred and thirty
Speaker 7: feet tall. Crazy has no ladder, which proved to be
Speaker 7: an issue for responding fire crews, whose ladders only reach
Speaker 7: about one hundred feet tall. Crews initially struggled to find
Speaker 7: equipment tall enough to reach him. They eventually found a
Speaker 7: specialized lift at a job site in Juliet, and Illinois
Speaker 7: State Police escorted it to Wilmington about five hours after
Speaker 7: he became trapped the scene getting into a crane basket
Speaker 7: and was brought safely back down.
Speaker 2: Yeah. Guess what, that'd be my last day at work.
Speaker 2: That'd be it for me. That would be the end
Speaker 2: of my career.
Speaker 4: But you also don't have a career in fixing signs
Speaker 4: like this guy is used to being up at heights
Speaker 4: that big, and while this is highly annoying, I think,
Speaker 4: like you know, he might continue the career. However, I
Speaker 4: think maybe a week or two off, Yeah, for his troubles,
Speaker 4: for this, for this Yeah, and he's in there to
Speaker 4: give them the thumbs up. This guy like wow, no,
Speaker 4: thank you for guys. And by the way, the five
Speaker 4: hours the police escort getting one hundred and fifty foot
Speaker 4: ladder from two cities away, was there not any discussion
Speaker 4: about I mean there was obviously once the news caught
Speaker 4: wind of this, helicopors flying around getting the the the
Speaker 4: camera shot of this guy. The chopper gonna do though,
Speaker 4: same thing with the ladder, same thing they would do
Speaker 4: for a water rescue, you know, So that get a
Speaker 4: guy to repel down get I mean it might be
Speaker 4: hard to get him close enough to the sign, just
Speaker 4: because the you know, if the if the helicopter, if
Speaker 4: it's windy, if it's moving around, and maybe it's too dangerous.
Speaker 4: But you would think maybe they could drop him along
Speaker 4: and just be like, hey, hey, connect to this and
Speaker 4: let's let's get you out of here.
Speaker 5: That's a big no for me.
Speaker 2: I have no interest at all in getting up at
Speaker 2: a sign and working.
Speaker 4: And when I was younger, and maybe not even that
Speaker 4: much younger, I thought if you look at that sign,
Speaker 4: if you go back to that video, you could see
Speaker 4: like how the the base of it is quite wide,
Speaker 4: and then it gets a little bit less wide and
Speaker 4: a little bit less wide as it goes up. I
Speaker 4: thought those signs were on some sort of hydraulicsis and
Speaker 4: anytime they need to fix it, anytime they need to telescopic. Yes,
Speaker 4: I thought those signs did those we're talking about teroscope up.
Speaker 4: We're talking these big signs that you see like on
Speaker 4: a major highway when there's a truck stop or there's
Speaker 4: a there are a handful of eating and fueling options
Speaker 4: in one spot. They have a bunch of these signs
Speaker 4: on there. But the the the base, like the diameter
Speaker 4: of the base of the sign gets smaller as you
Speaker 4: go up in sections. And I thoughtcott telescope wise that
Speaker 4: it would just come down.
Speaker 5: Uh huh.
Speaker 2: And that's how you fixed it or replaced it. A
Speaker 2: couple of emails to get it started off today, justin
Speaker 2: emails tips at the news Junkie dot com, and he says,
Speaker 2: two things from yesterday's show, So I have some insight
Speaker 2: on today's show. Well, by now it's yesterday's show. He says,
Speaker 2: you're right about that listening here in West Palm Beach, Florida. First,
Speaker 2: the whole dui in a vehicle if you're not driving,
Speaker 2: He says, I got a DUI one night after getting
Speaker 2: off work up in Maryland. It was Valentine's Day and
Speaker 2: I was supposed to crash at my friend's place, but
Speaker 2: he met a female friend and I no longer had
Speaker 2: that option open to me. We had been drinking all night.
Speaker 2: After one. You got a duy for being a wingman
Speaker 2: your friend. Oh yeah, that's next level, he says. It
Speaker 2: was freezing outside and too cold. I had nowhere to
Speaker 2: go and I didn't want to drive. Instead, I got
Speaker 2: in my car and turned on the heat and went
Speaker 2: to sleep. And I was just going to go to
Speaker 2: work the next morning in the sand clothes I wore
Speaker 2: from the day before. A cop knocked on my door
Speaker 2: and woke me up. My car was completely frozen from
Speaker 2: freezing rain, so I opened the door. Yes, I was drunk,
Speaker 2: but I had no intention on driving. I only turned
Speaker 2: my car on to heat it up so I didn't
Speaker 2: freeze to death overnight. I was arrested that day for
Speaker 2: a DUI. My lawyer got it dismissed because you can
Speaker 2: use your car as a shelter in extreme conditions. Interesting
Speaker 2: pole unlocked everybody, all right, lou poll and lock. There
Speaker 2: was a case he were to that legitimized his claim.
Speaker 2: I wanted it was dismissed, He says, uh. And I'll
Speaker 2: stay on this topic very quickly because I made a
Speaker 2: highlight video show highlight video for YouTube out of this
Speaker 2: pick a side we did yesterday where the woman got
Speaker 2: caught having sex in the back seat with this guy
Speaker 2: she met at the bar, and then the cop showed
Speaker 2: up and saw that they were drunk. He sent the
Speaker 2: guy on his way, but because she was in her
Speaker 2: car and she had her keys in her in her
Speaker 2: car and it was on even though they were like,
Speaker 2: you know, fooling around inside the car. The cop gave
Speaker 2: her the UI and she ended up getting more charges
Speaker 2: and stuff, and some of the comments were like, are
Speaker 2: you serious with this? Do you really think that cops
Speaker 2: should treat you different based on your behavior with them?
Speaker 6: Yes?
Speaker 8: Or yes?
Speaker 4: And ironically, yet if you are if you pause real quick,
Speaker 4: do you think they don't?
Speaker 1: Yeah?
Speaker 6: Of course.
Speaker 4: I mean like on the other side of the spectrum
Speaker 4: of behavior here, you don't think that you're treated a little,
Speaker 4: not worse, but you don't think that they'll go through
Speaker 4: the full amount of punishment that they legally can if
Speaker 4: you're a complete a hole to them, right, like.
Speaker 2: If you're compliant in proper and decent and respectful and
Speaker 2: doing all those things which she was doing. She was compliant,
Speaker 2: she was respectful, she was listening to everything the officer said,
Speaker 2: She was doing her best to do it. I can't
Speaker 2: even grasp the idea that you don't think those should
Speaker 2: be treated differently.
Speaker 5: So I was like, or are or are treated different?
Speaker 2: Or are already?
Speaker 8: Yeah?
Speaker 2: Like the idea that the CoP's gonna pull you over
Speaker 2: and if one person in car one is like, f you, copper,
Speaker 2: I'm not rolling down the window, I'm not being compliant,
Speaker 2: I'm not helping. I'm not doing any of those things.
Speaker 2: And then the other car is somebody saying I'm so
Speaker 2: sorry now, and they follow along with every little instruction
Speaker 2: that you give quite obviously to me. Maybe you guys
Speaker 2: don't agree, but I think most of you do, not
Speaker 2: even police officers. Just in just in life, yeah, and
Speaker 2: just in general. I would think I that that would
Speaker 2: be something.
Speaker 4: Do you think that I like, say you were at
Speaker 4: a bar and you were a complete dick the whole
Speaker 4: time to the bartender. You're getting charged for every little thing,
Speaker 4: and you know, and if you were totally cool in stuff,
Speaker 4: that might be a place where they're like, hey, you
Speaker 4: know you've been fun. Here's a shot on me.
Speaker 2: Right.
Speaker 5: Yeah, that's just life. It's life in general. I agree.
Speaker 2: Secondly, he says in the email back to Justin about
Speaker 2: that apartment that was flooding the one below. I ran
Speaker 2: a condo in an hoa community. One night, my ceiling
Speaker 2: started to drip and then it got worse. We thought
Speaker 2: it was from the condo upstairs. They have every right
Speaker 2: to legally go into an apartment to find the source.
Speaker 2: Fortunately for them, it wasn't coming from them, but my
Speaker 2: dryer ducked from the dryer outside. The thing had never
Speaker 2: been cleaned out since the building was built in nineteen
Speaker 2: eighty four.
Speaker 5: Yike, so much drier lit.
Speaker 2: It was about three full trash bags worth of dryer
Speaker 2: in the line and that was making it a drip.
Speaker 2: So the Condon say, I guess couldn't get out.
Speaker 4: I don't know, or it was like you know, like
Speaker 4: was there a weather that was entering the line and
Speaker 4: like just absorbing into all that lint.
Speaker 2: Well, he says, it slowly got heavy and cracked where
Speaker 2: the duck was taped into the connection part and just
Speaker 2: slowly kept dripping until it started to run down a
Speaker 2: beam and on my ceiling and it was falling apart
Speaker 2: and leaking down the wall. The hoa has every right
Speaker 2: to go into an apartment in this case, thought this
Speaker 2: could help love the show. Wiggle Wiggle pop Pop says, justin,
Speaker 2: thanks for the good email to get it started.
Speaker 4: Justin, I thought i'd come back more about that guy
Speaker 4: that they just let free. You know, he's he's hooking
Speaker 4: up with the with the girl in the car and
Speaker 4: then the cops, Hey, what do you guys do? And
Speaker 4: then they start questioning both of them, and then they
Speaker 4: set the guy free and they give her the DUI.
Speaker 4: And I was like, if I was the guy, I'd
Speaker 4: be so pissed off that I just got and this
Speaker 4: is not my own saying. Somebody on the chatter text
Speaker 4: messages was like, the guy got cop blocked.
Speaker 5: He got cop blocked.
Speaker 2: Yeah by the car, Yeah, you know. And I was like, man, if.
Speaker 4: Depending on what point in the sex timeline they were at,
Speaker 4: I would be so mad if I were that dude.
Speaker 4: I know somebody who's had that happen to them. Where
Speaker 4: they were, you know, in the car, things were getting
Speaker 4: hot and heavy, and the cop was like, on your way, guys,
Speaker 4: this is not happening here.
Speaker 5: Bye bye, quick break.
Speaker 2: When we come back, we'll get into a couple of things.
Speaker 2: We want to give you a thousand bucks. We'll hopefully
Speaker 2: make that happen today. Also, I am I'm fuming about
Speaker 2: a big change that just happened to all of our lives.
Speaker 2: This will affect you, and I'm fuming about it. You
Speaker 2: will be too. I'll tell you what's going on that's
Speaker 2: coming up next and the news junkie. I think this
Speaker 2: is unfair. I don't like this. I'm never playing again
Speaker 2: because of this, but maybe you are. However, I have
Speaker 2: to tell you, when I saw this headline this morning,
Speaker 2: I thought I didn't know that was a thing. I
Speaker 2: didn't know that was happening. Powerball player is outraged. You
Speaker 2: still play Powerball Sea Land or No once in a
Speaker 2: while if there's a really big jackpot. Well tell me
Speaker 2: if this changes your mind. Powerball players outraged over lottery's
Speaker 2: historic expansion abroad, people saying it's rigged anyway.
Speaker 5: Right, it's rigged anyway.
Speaker 2: Powerball players in the US avowed that they will never
Speaker 2: play again after it reached the shores of the United Kingdom.
Speaker 2: Why amid its international expansion, Accusing officials of corruption. Jackpot
Speaker 2: hopeful say they will play their state lottery games rather
Speaker 2: than test their luck at winning the massive prize, which
Speaker 2: now stands at over six hundred million dollars. It doesn't
Speaker 2: make it any different, it doesn't.
Speaker 4: In fact, the more people that play powerball, the better
Speaker 4: it is for everybody, because the when there's not a winner,
Speaker 4: that that money just goes to the jackpot.
Speaker 2: Okay, is that true, though, like more people play, aren't
Speaker 2: isn't that harder for you to get? No?
Speaker 4: No, no, because you're playing against the odds of landing.
Speaker 4: What is what is the power ball six numbers plus
Speaker 4: a power power ball? Or is it five numbers plus
Speaker 4: a power ball? I think it's five plus a power ball,
Speaker 4: but I don't remember.
Speaker 2: It might be six.
Speaker 4: So let's just say it's five numbers plus a power ball.
Speaker 4: Your odds, it's not like more people play. The only
Speaker 4: thing that happens if more when more people play, is
Speaker 4: if more than one person gets that exact combination of numbers,
Speaker 4: you have to split the jackpot. Now that is annoying, However,
Speaker 4: it doesn't change your odds of winning. The more people playing,
Speaker 4: and the more people that.
Speaker 2: The whole world was playing, that would change your odds. No,
Speaker 2: it doesn't change your odds. Oh, because the game you're
Speaker 2: still trying to guess what you could get multiple winners though, right, like, yeah,
Speaker 2: you're the whole world is playing. You got billions of
Speaker 2: people playing the power ball, Like then all of a sudden,
Speaker 2: the odds of oh, well, guess what, six hundred and
Speaker 2: fifty two people split the jackpot?
Speaker 4: Ride I don't think six fifty two people have ever
Speaker 4: gotten the jackpot on a power not yet.
Speaker 2: Because they used to only play in the United States
Speaker 2: of America. They used to only play in a handful
Speaker 2: of faith. Now they're opening up to these folks in
Speaker 2: the UK. You know why, because they want to afford
Speaker 2: an air conditioning over there. They want to try to
Speaker 2: get through this summer with an AC and that's what
Speaker 2: they're doing their aircar and tickets. So the overhall odds
Speaker 2: of winning the powerball jackpot are one in two point
Speaker 2: nine excuse me, one in two nine two point two million.
Speaker 2: You have to correctly match all five white balls drawn
Speaker 2: from a pool of sixty nine, like you get. It's
Speaker 2: easy if it was like one to ten or one
Speaker 2: to twenty one to sixty nine and the single red
Speaker 2: powerball drawn from a pool of twenty six. Okay, it's
Speaker 2: incredibly hard. The jackpot odds are extremely steep. Your overall
Speaker 2: chances of winning any prize in the game, meaning hitting
Speaker 2: a couple numbers and getting like one of the smaller payouts,
Speaker 2: is one in twenty four point eighty seven. I don't
Speaker 2: want other countries participating in our lottery. I'm gonna say
Speaker 2: it I'm just gonna say it. I don't want them
Speaker 2: participating in our lottery, even if the game is still
Speaker 2: just as difficult. I understand what you're saying. I understand
Speaker 2: the math and the logic of it. I think this
Speaker 2: should be a thing for us in the United States
Speaker 2: of America. All right, maybe there could be another lottery
Speaker 2: that's the World Lottery, the Global Lottery, and everybody from
Speaker 2: little kids in Cambodia can get tickets to like, you know,
Speaker 2: folks down under in Australia.
Speaker 5: But I think this is no good.
Speaker 2: I don't want the UK folks like imagine that all
Speaker 2: of a sudden, some brit with no teeth wins and
Speaker 2: goes up to the microphone holding the big check. I
Speaker 2: won the Palwa Ball.
Speaker 5: You know, they're like, they've got it.
Speaker 2: They've got it there in Surrey or some dumb town
Speaker 2: you've never been to. I don't want that. I mean,
Speaker 2: I'm not probably I'm not going to play anyone, but
Speaker 2: if you are, let me know if this changes your
Speaker 2: mind in any way. They are globalizing the power ball
Speaker 2: right now. Sea Lane is unfazed by this.
Speaker 4: I think that the more people that play the power Ball,
Speaker 4: the quicker that jackpot, and the higher that jackpot will
Speaker 4: go up.
Speaker 2: No, hold on, let me see what they say here.
Speaker 2: This is Good Morning America talking about this. Let's see
Speaker 2: if they vindicate you, because you're right. I know you're
Speaker 2: right about the number.
Speaker 9: All starts with tonight's massive powerball drawing. For the first time,
Speaker 9: residents of the United Kingdom will be able to win
Speaker 9: the jack yesterday, tickets went on sale all over the UK.
Speaker 9: So the good news, the lottery says, by expanding the
Speaker 9: pool of ticket buyers grow faster and higher without raising
Speaker 9: the two dollars ticket price or changing the winning.
Speaker 2: I've talked over her making my point.
Speaker 4: Now go back a couple of seconds, she says, the
Speaker 4: jackpot will rise.
Speaker 2: I heard yapping, and I didn't hear anything that vindicated
Speaker 2: you in any possible way.
Speaker 5: I will go back.
Speaker 9: Hold on, let me see ticket buyers, the top prize
Speaker 9: will grow faster and higher without raising the two dollars
Speaker 9: ticket price or changing the odds of winning.
Speaker 3: As low as they are.
Speaker 9: The bad news, of course, is that someone across the
Speaker 9: pond could end up hitting the jackpot and winning all
Speaker 9: that money.
Speaker 6: It is a good.
Speaker 9: Time for new players to get in on the action.
Speaker 9: Tonight's jackpot is worth a whopping five hundred and sixty
Speaker 9: seven million dollars or about four.
Speaker 2: I'm not doing it. I'm not doing it. I only
Speaker 2: want the United States of America involved in these games.
Speaker 2: It's too expansive. It starts to feel like there's too
Speaker 2: many people. And when more people play, I don't care
Speaker 2: if it affects my odds, like you're saying the numbers wise,
Speaker 2: it feels like it does. It does. It feels like
Speaker 2: it affects my odds. It feels like it affects the
Speaker 2: odds of the game that you won't play.
Speaker 4: I would play it if it was is This sounds
Speaker 4: like them changing the rules at the gym, you know,
Speaker 4: and you're like, wow, I.
Speaker 2: Can't believe they would low this at the gym. It's
Speaker 2: the gym that I don't go to. Yeah, sure, okay,
Speaker 2: all right, yeah, I agree, that's obviously correct. But the
Speaker 2: US Powerball jackpot is going international. Now, those of you
Speaker 2: who play regularly, give us your thoughts, because I know
Speaker 2: a lot of you are out there.
Speaker 5: You're you're playing these games every single week.
Speaker 2: I don't know if it makes perfect financial sense, but
Speaker 2: give it a shot and let us know if the
Speaker 2: international version works any better.
Speaker 4: I think we have this like this weird premonition or
Speaker 4: notion that the lottery is somehow like an American patriotic
Speaker 4: institution just because it's something all of us do. But
Speaker 4: I mean, we have the state lotteries and then we
Speaker 4: have these national lotteries. But essentially it's just legal gambling
Speaker 4: run by a corporation that is the lottery.
Speaker 2: Oh you know what it is. This is redistribution of wealth.
Speaker 10: Right.
Speaker 2: The Americans all put their money into the power Ball,
Speaker 2: the poros and everybody else, middle class folks with a dream,
Speaker 2: and everybody buys all their Powerball tickets in the United
Speaker 2: States of America, and then some schmuck over in Lincolnshire
Speaker 2: or whatever wins in the UK, and then that guy
Speaker 2: takes all of our American money.
Speaker 11: Right.
Speaker 4: If you don't like it, then and you want to
Speaker 4: tug at the heartstrings of real patriotic salt of the
Speaker 4: earth Americans, then time to pony up and start eagle
Speaker 4: Ball and it'll be a lottery that you promise from
Speaker 4: day one that will only exist in the United States
Speaker 4: of America.
Speaker 2: Eagle Ball is so much better than power Ball. Just
Speaker 2: for the record, and the power Ball has an ego
Speaker 2: on it. I'm already working on this. This is going
Speaker 2: to be so much better because here's how this is
Speaker 2: supposed to go. The United States of America is a
Speaker 2: beautiful place, and what we do is we take our
Speaker 2: money from each other. So if all the poros put
Speaker 2: their money in a pot, like putting it in the
Speaker 2: middle of the monopoly board when you go Pasco or whatever,
Speaker 2: you pay your fines or whatever it is you do.
Speaker 2: I guess you get paid when you go Pasco, But
Speaker 2: when you pay your fines, you put in the middle
Speaker 2: of the monopoly board, and then some person gets all
Speaker 2: that money. It's fine if it's all the porros and
Speaker 2: middle class people with a dream who are in the
Speaker 2: United States taking each other's money. But the moment some
Speaker 2: foreigner takes all of those people's dollars from the power
Speaker 2: ball and brings it over there, that's a no go
Speaker 2: from me. But we want to know what you think
Speaker 2: about all of this. Send us a dispatch over on
Speaker 2: thenewsjunkie dot com right now. Okay, many many things to
Speaker 2: work in here on the show, including you your dispatches.

Speaker 2: I don't know if he's talking about the show, but uh,
Speaker 2: it's funny because I just told you. You know, we
Speaker 2: do Game of Magnets for the News Junkie And if
Speaker 2: you don't know what this is, if you ever see
Speaker 2: wherever you are, the Newsjunkie magnets out in the they're
Speaker 2: all square with rounded corners. There's various designs of the
Speaker 2: News Junkie logo. There's well over fifty thousand of them.
Speaker 2: I think fifty five thousand of them that are what
Speaker 2: we call out in the wild.
Speaker 5: And if you see it and that News Junkie magnet.
Speaker 2: That's it because the Magnet Company is out of magnets.
Speaker 5: That's what I'm talking about. So if you see these
Speaker 5: out there.
Speaker 2: The game that we have for Game of Magnets is
Speaker 2: if you see one on somebody's car, you can grab it.
Speaker 2: If they're on somebody's car. It's in play and it's
Speaker 2: called Game of Magnets. And you could take the news
Speaker 2: junkie magnet and put it into your collection. This has
Speaker 2: led many people to just store them on their fridges
Speaker 2: and inside securely, which is also fun. I understand that too,
Speaker 2: but I stated the other day, I was like, I
Speaker 2: needed to get a thousand more magnets in the Magnet Company,
Speaker 2: who have worked with for like ten years now, refused us.
Speaker 2: The Magnet company was like, we are out of magnets.
Speaker 2: And then I saw it. I was like, I feel
Speaker 2: like he's talking directly to us.
Speaker 12: Here's Trump talking about that and critical minerals, and I

Speaker 2: I gotta take a break while I do magnets. Magnets
Speaker 2: right here, quick break. When we come back, we have
Speaker 2: to get to this unbelievable doorbell clip, a doorbell security
Speaker 2: clip that sounds like it's straight up out of a
Speaker 2: horror movie. Stick with us for that one that's coming
Speaker 2: up in just a bit. For some reason, Emerald is
Speaker 2: going viral today, so I want to share that with you.
Speaker 2: Updates on Cyclospora and a few other stories coming up
Speaker 2: next on the News Junkie. People are legitimately, it seems,
Speaker 2: scared to eat food right now, they're scared that they're
Speaker 2: gonna get the cyclospor But the memes have been so great.
Speaker 2: Oh god. Yeah.
Speaker 4: The one that I've liked is the people who are
Speaker 4: high and mighty about what was I don't know a
Speaker 4: month ago, considered questionable food decisions. And they were like, ah, yes,
Speaker 4: I do eat my gas station roller hot dogs, and
Speaker 4: I'm just sitting back here not having explode some diarrhea,
Speaker 4: will you and your salads are ruining your butt?
Speaker 2: And they still don't exactly know where all this comes from.
Speaker 2: They've pointed fingers in a couple of directions, but we
Speaker 2: haven't really solved the problem of where this is sourced at.
Speaker 2: It just seems like produce is to blame, as it
Speaker 2: often is now, because the gross truth of it all,
Speaker 2: which I've told you here on the show, is that
Speaker 2: this cyclosporas stuff is usually farm workers not using a
Speaker 2: restroom and going out near the produce or like in
Speaker 2: a water source near the produce, and then that gets
Speaker 2: up into the food that you eat. That's where it
Speaker 2: actually comes from. People have been so grossed out by
Speaker 2: all of this, and I don't blame you necessarily that
Speaker 2: they are abandoning the places that they used to eat at.
Speaker 2: There's an employee who posts at least anecdotal evidence of this,
Speaker 2: and he's at a taco bell and there.
Speaker 5: Ain't nobody there. It's wide open.
Speaker 2: It's just him an empty taco bell. No orders on
Speaker 2: the little screen. I see you on here. Nine thirty four,
Speaker 2: there was an order nine and ten fifteen, no orders
Speaker 2: since then. Don't know exactly what time it is, but
Speaker 2: there ain't nobody in this guy, so.
Speaker 4: It almost seems like they're coming in for breakfast because
Speaker 4: you don't usually have lettuce in your breakfast burrito, right,
Speaker 4: there's not let us, but in tacos it's pretty common. Yeah,
Speaker 4: thank god, no, But but yeah, I guess. I guess
Speaker 4: it's been pretty dead out there. There's a lot of
Speaker 4: places where people usually go, but they've heard, Hey, I
Speaker 4: might get sick here. I might end up getting some
Speaker 4: stomach issues. I don't want to face that down, so
Speaker 4: therefore I'll back off of the taco bell or wherever.
Speaker 2: And I don't know if you guys have seen that.
Speaker 2: If you have, let us know, let us know, Like, hey,
Speaker 2: I usually go to this place and it's been absolutely dead,
Speaker 2: see which on TJ Chat says Taylor Farms is the source,
Speaker 2: and they're let us sells under multiple labels marketside of
Speaker 2: Walmart is Taylor Farms. They sell it Whole Foods just
Speaker 2: avoid it like the play. That's what the FDA was
Speaker 2: suggesting that Taylor Farms was the source. They did a
Speaker 2: test of one sample that came over the border, and
Speaker 2: they said that that certainly had the cyclospora, the little
Speaker 2: bug that gives you the cyclospora, and then they said, whoops,
Speaker 2: it was a false positive test, and they said, but
Speaker 2: still we believe this is the source. Nobody really knows
Speaker 2: just yet, so I don't think it's like we're fully
Speaker 2: locked in on this.
Speaker 5: I know there was a story recently on ABC. Let's
Speaker 5: see if they mentioned it.
Speaker 2: Just seems to me that we're not fully confident, but
Speaker 2: we think it might be.
Speaker 14: That Patia is investigating a new potential outbreak of that
Speaker 14: severe stomach illness cyclosporiasis. It's not yet identifying the location
Speaker 14: or source, but says that this cluster includes at least
Speaker 14: seventy two cases. We are already seeing cases hit a
Speaker 14: record across the country. In forty one states, more than
Speaker 14: eleven thousand people have now gotten sick typically in a
Speaker 14: given year there are around three thousand cases and we
Speaker 14: are only now about halfway through the season for this.
Speaker 6: The FDA DA there was a season sixteen.
Speaker 2: Yeah, there's a cyclospora season. Avoid it at all costs
Speaker 2: like the plague, but there's a more hurricane season.
Speaker 6: Right right is to Taylor Farms.
Speaker 14: Iceberg lettuce from Mexico served at Taco Bell locations in
Speaker 14: five states that's been recalled. We spoke with Chase Strangino
Speaker 14: in New York who said that he was one of
Speaker 14: more than forty people who got cyclist briasis after eating
Speaker 14: a boxed lunch with lettuce at a corporate event. He
Speaker 14: said that he was sick for weeks.
Speaker 1: Damn.
Speaker 14: Untreated symptoms for this can linger for days or even weeks,
Speaker 14: but thankfully antibiotics can help clear this.
Speaker 2: I guess it's not a good time. That's that's the
Speaker 2: bottom line here. It's not a good time. And the
Speaker 2: fact that they say eleven thousand people got this put
Speaker 2: a zero in the end. One hundred eleven thousand people
Speaker 2: probably got it because nobody wants to tell you.
Speaker 5: It's a little bit embarrassing.
Speaker 2: As you could imagine when you got the cyclospora. So
Speaker 2: be careful. People are avoid some of these places, you know.
Speaker 2: I guess even washing your veggies is not really the
Speaker 2: fantastic answer that I think. I mean, they've got to
Speaker 2: be cooked. Yeah, a little bug. The only way to
Speaker 2: kill it is cooking it. Yeah, it's a little like
Speaker 2: microscopic bug sea land. That's that's in these things, and
Speaker 2: that's what's caused a lot of these issues. Then that
Speaker 2: stumbled me into this. I think Time magazine had this
Speaker 2: story and it said ten foods that food safety experts
Speaker 2: never eat. Okay, well, if if the people who are
Speaker 2: into food safety, you're like, no, not that one.
Speaker 4: Of course they go for one. I like as the picture, Yeah,
Speaker 4: the oyster. Oyster is And I figured, I'm like, because
Speaker 4: you're eating an oyster just straight up raw most of
Speaker 4: the time. I like them grilled every once in a
Speaker 4: while or or or like a Rockefeller kind of deal.
Speaker 2: Yeah, they said raw milk and raw milk cheese. Obviously
Speaker 2: those are no good for the people who like raw milk.
Speaker 2: What are you doing? What are you doing? People don't
Speaker 2: fight for raw milk always. It baffles me. Hippies, man,
Speaker 2: that's what it is. They think that it's people who
Speaker 2: think that the government is putting that big bad stuff
Speaker 2: in your milk or something. But you want them to
Speaker 2: put at least something in there. You want them to
Speaker 2: at least pasteurize it. Canilope didn't know that. Didn't know
Speaker 2: that cantilope is another risk for getting sick, and then
Speaker 2: the food safety experts don't eat it. Raw oysters and
Speaker 2: shellfish is another one. Sushi rolls, which isn't that kind
Speaker 2: of like you know the seafood right, It's like raw
Speaker 2: seafood is what it is. Undercooked pork is another one.
Speaker 2: Sprouts And I've heard this many times that sprouts is
Speaker 2: another thing that a lot of the food safety experts
Speaker 2: don't want to eat.
Speaker 4: Sprouts is one of those things that will be on
Speaker 4: the menu of a place and then we'll be mysteriously missing.
Speaker 4: And you know, why don't they have sprouts today? Like well,
Speaker 4: you know, the sprouts are causing problems again. And I
Speaker 4: think a lot of places that once had sprouts on
Speaker 4: their metal can you can you still get sprouts on
Speaker 4: a Jimmy John sub I think they used to have sprouts,
Speaker 4: and I think they got fed up and they're like,
Speaker 4: there's two reasons to take something off the menu. A.
Speaker 4: Nobody orders it right, and we're not enough people order
Speaker 4: it and there's too much waste. And B they just
Speaker 4: can't keep it on the menu because they keep having
Speaker 4: problems with food safety issues. And I feel like sprouts
Speaker 4: is something that they run into with that very often.
Speaker 2: I think B is what happened there, because you're right,
Speaker 2: Jimmy John's used to have that as an option and
Speaker 2: then they will completely wipe that out. Maybe they brought
Speaker 2: it back, but that was one of them. Pre cut
Speaker 2: fruits and vegetables. The food safety experts say, be careful,
Speaker 2: do not eat this. Just take notes, folks mentally as
Speaker 2: you're going through the grocery store, at least for a
Speaker 2: hot second here raw eggs. Eggs are far safer today
Speaker 2: than they were twenty years ago, but some people will
Speaker 2: not eat them raw. Always kind of a bad idea
Speaker 2: to do that. Under cook hamburgers. Iired a guy come
Speaker 2: in and the other day, sat right next to me.
Speaker 2: He goes, they said, you want a burger, how do
Speaker 2: you want that? Cook? And he goes rare and I go,
Speaker 2: you ra air burger. People are an interesting breed. I
Speaker 2: know this is kind of a hot take, but I
Speaker 2: think medium well is actually the best way to get
Speaker 2: it done. I think like this, this thing where your
Speaker 2: burger is still moving around is a little too much
Speaker 2: for me. But the other one is potlucks and picnic
Speaker 2: food So if you are at work and they're doing
Speaker 2: a thing where everybody brings food, stay away if you
Speaker 2: want your stomach to be okay. There's this slogan for you.
Speaker 2: Your feedback and dispatches coming up in just a moment,
Speaker 2: record yours over at thenewsjunkie dot com right now. Hot
Speaker 2: lucks and picnic foods.
Speaker 5: They got food out at the at the I heard
Speaker 5: HQ today or.
Speaker 2: No, no, not today. No the marks safe.
Speaker 4: From me that, But Jimmy Joe, I think the people
Speaker 4: in this building are a little more immune to stuff
Speaker 4: like that because we routinely just eat stuff that's been
Speaker 4: out at a table for hours. We are building up
Speaker 4: sort of a yeah, like a like a shield. Stuff
Speaker 4: like that.
Speaker 2: It's like giving a little kid little bits of peanut
Speaker 2: butter to build that up over time. I see me.
Speaker 4: John's permanently discontinued sprouts in February of twenty twenty, Man,
Speaker 4: I did it's been long enough, I kind of forgot
Speaker 4: almost that they had them.
Speaker 2: They took everything away from us in twenty twenty. What
Speaker 2: a ear? What a ear? Quick break, when we come back,
Speaker 2: I have this doorbell security footage that you got to hear.
Speaker 2: It is out of a horror movie, and I have
Speaker 2: the story from the family that this happened to. It's unbelievable,
Speaker 2: and that is coming up next on the News Junkie.
Speaker 2: What I'm about to play for you is real. It's
Speaker 2: not out of a horror movie.
Speaker 5: It's legit. It's real, it's actual.
Speaker 2: It's an experience that somebody had, and I've got their
Speaker 2: story that is just unbelievable, and I'm going to share
Speaker 2: that with you in just a moment here on the show.
Speaker 2: So buckle up for this terrifying experience that this family
Speaker 2: had all captured on their doorbell and their doorbell camera.
Speaker 2: But real quickly, I want to tell people who support
Speaker 2: the show, by the way, thanks to everybody so far.
Speaker 2: There's been a lot of you today already. Look at this.
Speaker 2: Holy cow, I didn't even see half of these, My God,
Speaker 2: big thanks to Rockin' Ange, Buttermine Noodles, sun State, John
Speaker 2: DJ Rage, Tom Tom Kat bh and Colac all for
Speaker 2: the gifted subscriptions already today. Thank you so much. That
Speaker 2: goes to directly support the show. The new option that
Speaker 2: I put up for folks, seelem I thought this was perfect.
Speaker 2: It's going very viral right now. In the rewards section.
Speaker 2: If you go to the Newsjunkie dot com, if you
Speaker 2: subscribe or if you give subscriptions, you get to claim
Speaker 2: items and they're under rewards on the homepage. And I
Speaker 2: just added a brand new item here and it says
Speaker 2: it's a new sticker that says Jimothy says Relax, And
Speaker 2: it's Jimothy, the little the raccoon guy. Let me zoom
Speaker 2: on in here. Jimothy says relax. It's the viral raccoon
Speaker 2: that has the internet in the world going absolutely crazy
Speaker 2: right now. It's a nice circle sticker that you can have.
Speaker 2: We've covered this story on the show. It's been very viral.
Speaker 2: The Jimothy says Relaxed story is one of the items
Speaker 2: you can get Jimothy's sightings. They're still looking for him.
Speaker 15: You know.
Speaker 5: The interesting thing, Seeland, there was a bunch over the weekend.
Speaker 2: Have you missed this? It's this weird raccoon that's like
Speaker 2: deformed that has grabbed everybody's attention online, and people love Jimothy.
Speaker 2: And they've now started this thing where it's like, we
Speaker 2: do not give Jimothy's location because we think that somebody
Speaker 2: will harm Jimothy, or they'll try to capture Jimothy, or.
Speaker 4: I would think more more so than not, somebody would
Speaker 4: try to keep Jimothy for a pet.
Speaker 2: Exactly. They're worried about that too, So they ended up
Speaker 2: stopping with the sightings at least showing exactly where the
Speaker 2: animal was. Somebody said, we need a back on a
Speaker 2: plane sticker. You got it, all right, I'll do it
Speaker 2: back on a plane sticker.
Speaker 5: Before the week is up as well. Make that an option.
Speaker 2: But right now we have a Jimithy says, relaxes one
Speaker 2: of your options when you support the show. Now, let's
Speaker 2: go to this story. It's about a family, a new
Speaker 2: some more somewhere in a beach, Florida, and this is
Speaker 2: the encounter that was captured on their doorbell video.
Speaker 5: Brace yourself because this.
Speaker 2: Is a little jarring, but imagine yourself in this situation,
Speaker 2: because that's what this family was facing. Here we go,
Speaker 2: boom boom, boom mother.
Speaker 16: New shocking video shows a shirtless stranger trying to break
Speaker 16: into a family's home in the middle of the night.
Speaker 6: Everyone inside, all.
Speaker 2: Right, So this guy goes up to these people's doorbell.
Speaker 2: He's got bom boom boom of the river, He's got
Speaker 2: no shirt on, he has a big palm tree tattooed
Speaker 2: on his chest. And I don't know what's going on
Speaker 2: with him, but he very quickly says boom boom boom
Speaker 2: mf or And then after that it was like, I'll
Speaker 2: shoot anybody in this house. And these people have no
Speaker 2: idea who this is. I'll give you their whole story,
Speaker 2: but that's just the actual moment.
Speaker 8: Boom boom, boom mother.
Speaker 16: New shocking video shows a shirtless stranger trying to break
Speaker 16: into a family's home in the middle of the night.
Speaker 16: He threatened to shoot everyone inside. Investigators say it was
Speaker 16: this man caught on a ring camera pulling on door handles,
Speaker 16: making finger gun gestures and screaming threats.
Speaker 6: Thanks for joining us tonight. I'm Luen Serrell.
Speaker 2: What's going on with this guy? This family said it
Speaker 2: was straight out of a horror movie. It was a
Speaker 2: terrifying night around eleven thirty, Judy Lewis was unwinding in
Speaker 2: her living room with a doorbell rang, but the man
Speaker 2: standing on her porch was not a guest, and he
Speaker 2: refused to take no for an answer. He wouldn't go away.
Speaker 2: Sixty three year old Kevin Moss aggressively pulled on the
Speaker 2: front door handle, flashed a finger gun gesture, and was
Speaker 2: shouting profanities non stop, scaring everybody who was inside the
Speaker 2: house in this moment. That would be freaky, that would
Speaker 2: make you panic a little bit. I could see that.
Speaker 17: Manny Martinez, Fox thirty five's Bailey Bockover is live tonight
Speaker 17: in New Smirna Beach.
Speaker 16: So Bailey's mother inside the home told you she thought
Speaker 16: they were going to die.
Speaker 6: Good evening. That's right.
Speaker 11: It was a very scary night for the family. And
Speaker 11: now they're warning others to lock your doors.
Speaker 6: It was around eleven thirty at night.
Speaker 11: Judy Lewis was unwinding in her living room when the
Speaker 11: doorbell chimed, But the man on the porch wasn't a guest,
Speaker 11: and he wasn't taking no for an answer.
Speaker 8: Boom boom, boom, mother, why is he doing that? How
Speaker 8: much she new?
Speaker 3: Smirna Beach.
Speaker 11: Police say the man is sixty three year old Kevin
Speaker 11: maw The lease a moss, aggressively pulled on the front
Speaker 11: door handle, flashed a finger gun and hurled death threats.
Speaker 11: Investigators say he went around back pounding on windows. Yeah,
Speaker 11: just open a sliding glass door.
Speaker 2: Bro, How did you not get killed? How did you
Speaker 2: not get killed? You you go around somebody's house first
Speaker 2: of all, jiggle in the front door saying you're gonna
Speaker 2: kill people, and then you're wandering around banging on the windows,
Speaker 2: trying to get on the backside, trying to open the
Speaker 2: back door.
Speaker 4: That's how you get shot. Hey, there's guns in this house. Yeah,
Speaker 4: that's the way to get shot, right in the face.
Speaker 4: That's how you instantly get shot. Judy, who lived at
Speaker 4: this house, shared her story and she said, first I
Speaker 4: just want to say my son, my nephew, and my
Speaker 4: dog and Iroka this morning, very thankful for that. But
Speaker 4: we did have a harrowing night last night at my home.
Speaker 4: I'm posting this as a PSA to everyone, but also
Speaker 4: so don't have to keep repeating this story. Around eleven
Speaker 4: thirty last night, I was on the couch by my
Speaker 4: front door watching TV. My son and my nephew, who
Speaker 4: just arrived in town, were in my son's room. All
Speaker 4: of a sudden, I heard chimes on my ring camera
Speaker 4: and somebody was trying to open my front door to
Speaker 4: get in.
Speaker 2: This will make you freak out. I knew it couldn't
Speaker 2: have been my son, so I immediately started yelling that
Speaker 2: somebody was trying to get into the house. He and
Speaker 2: my nephew, Jared, came out and saw through the glass
Speaker 2: side door and the lights by the front door that
Speaker 2: there was a man standing there, shirtless with tattoos and
Speaker 2: saying to let him in. He was obviously drunk. My
Speaker 2: son and Jared said, you got the wrong house. You
Speaker 2: need to go. But he tried to get in again
Speaker 2: and threatened to shoot my son, use his hand like
Speaker 2: a gun, like a fingerbang thing like you know, the
Speaker 2: handgun thing, and boom, boom, boom is what he said.
Speaker 2: This is the only part I got on my roofcom
Speaker 2: I've got nine one one on the phone saying this
Speaker 2: man won't leave it. He's threatened to kill us if
Speaker 2: we won't let him in. What you don't see is
Speaker 2: how it escalated, and it escalated big time. Judy says
Speaker 2: he got very aggressive. The boys started yelling at him
Speaker 2: to get the f out and that we were calling
Speaker 2: the police. The guy was trying as hard as he
Speaker 2: could to get in. My twenty year old son was
Speaker 2: holding the dead bowl. He had his body up against
Speaker 2: the door just in case. Dispatch told me multiple units
Speaker 2: were on the way. The guy walked away from the
Speaker 2: front door, and then he went through our fence gate
Speaker 2: and came around the back of the house. While we
Speaker 2: didn't know if he left or not, the three of
Speaker 2: us stood in the kitchen staring at my kitchen door
Speaker 2: wonder if he was coming in. Then we heard a
Speaker 2: bang against that door, and he was violently trying to
Speaker 2: open it. He said he was going to kill us,
Speaker 2: and I'm going to f you up, is what he
Speaker 2: was saying over and over. Then he went over to
Speaker 2: the window that looks into my kitchen sink and hit
Speaker 2: the windows so hard with a vase that if we
Speaker 2: hit the window so hard that a vase fell off
Speaker 2: the window sill. She said, I've never been so frightened
Speaker 2: in my entire life. My whole body was shaking. I
Speaker 2: kept asking where are the police, Where are the police.
Speaker 2: Finally the police arrived I guess I want to say
Speaker 2: thanks to the new summer of each police department. Oh
Speaker 2: oh oh, hold on it don't okay, Because the video
Speaker 2: that she posted is not censored. She says PSA is
Speaker 2: keep your doors locked at all times, could have had
Speaker 2: a completely different ending. The question I bring to you
Speaker 2: now is one that's kind of interesting and will be
Speaker 2: different reflective amongst generations. When you're just sitting at home,
Speaker 2: is your front door locked? Yes? Same, But I didn't
Speaker 2: always do that. I didn't do that in various places,
Speaker 2: and it took me a long time to learn this
Speaker 2: lesson because as a kid at my family's house in
Speaker 2: Royal Palm Beach in the middle of nowhere in the acreage,
Speaker 2: I remember very clearly, we didn't have to lock the door.
Speaker 2: There was nobody coming down the street. There was nobody
Speaker 2: to mess with the house. We lived on an acre
Speaker 2: and a quarter and there was a total of six
Speaker 2: people on the whole street, and you never saw anybody
Speaker 2: coming down the street or anything so other than people
Speaker 2: sneaking over to hang out with my sister in the
Speaker 2: middle of the night. There weren't any people just stopping by.
Speaker 2: We never locked the door. I go to Chicago, live
Speaker 2: there for a while, I don't lock the door one
Speaker 2: day and somebody breaks in and steals a bunch of
Speaker 2: my stuff. I had somebody break into my house when
Speaker 2: I was living in downtown Orlando, same kind of thing.
Speaker 2: And then after that the cops came over and they said,
Speaker 2: why don't you lock the door? And I was like, yeah,
Speaker 2: it seems like you're blaming me a little bit. But
Speaker 2: then after that I started with it, and now we
Speaker 2: have an auto lock. We lock all of our doors
Speaker 2: all the time. Obviously with this show, there's raised security
Speaker 2: because some of you are crazy. Yeah, not only nut
Speaker 2: jobs listening to the show.
Speaker 4: Not only do I have the auto lock, but if
Speaker 4: I'm home, mostly because installed this because of my young child,
Speaker 4: but I have one of those like latch deals that
Speaker 4: you would have at a hotel.
Speaker 13: Yeah.
Speaker 2: Yeah, like a little security lock kind of thing. It
Speaker 2: seems unfortunate that that's how things would have to be.
Speaker 2: But I ask you, are there any of you who
Speaker 2: are like, Nope, I'm still living in the olden times.
Speaker 2: My neighborhood is still a safe neighborhood. We don't even
Speaker 2: have to lock our doors. We leave our doors unlocked.
Speaker 2: Are we all now moving over into this low trust society,
Speaker 2: just like Target has everything locked up, like your deodorant
Speaker 2: and all the rest. Are we now all doing that
Speaker 2: ourselves at home? Make sure you lock your car, make
Speaker 2: sure you lock your house. Crazy's wandering around people trying
Speaker 2: to steal your stuff.
Speaker 5: Where are we at on this?
Speaker 2: Let me know, send a dispatcher an email over and
Speaker 2: we're looking at your comments and chat as well, because
Speaker 2: I want to know if this has changed or if
Speaker 2: this is like got I feel like it has. I
Speaker 2: just feel like more people now are worried about stuff
Speaker 2: like this occurring. And I do think that this guy
Speaker 2: is very, very very lucky that he's not dead.
Speaker 5: Because you're smashing down the door.
Speaker 2: I don't know if you could fire through a glass
Speaker 2: door like a sliding glass door. You're not supposed to
Speaker 2: fire through like a secured front door. But if this
Speaker 2: in the house, you could shoot him immediately, yeah, Or
Speaker 2: if he's getting into your backyard or something that they
Speaker 2: said that he you know, what you don't see on
Speaker 2: the ring camera is that he went out to other
Speaker 2: places that weren't you know, didn't have cameras on them,
Speaker 2: and was trying to get in there.
Speaker 13: Thing.
Speaker 4: I think maybe he has to get in before you
Speaker 4: shoot him. Yeah, I think so. Or or can you
Speaker 4: like open the door and cock the gun and be
Speaker 4: like out of here, Bud?
Speaker 2: Hell you could, you could try it. I see a
Speaker 2: bunch of people chiming on this. Duwayne says people who
Speaker 2: leave doors unlocked in today's world are asking for trouble.
Speaker 2: This is Mesh who says I've always locked all my
Speaker 2: doors behind me always. Kevin disagrees, I never lock my door.
Speaker 2: Kevin said, what is your setup? And I'm not trying
Speaker 2: to break into your house? But what is your setup?
Speaker 2: And also has this ration admit? Has that changed over time?
Speaker 2: Let us know with your emails and dispatches tips at
Speaker 2: thenewsjunkie dot com. Quick Break when we come back, we
Speaker 2: got more to get into. We got the hot sheet
Speaker 2: on the way, we got Fritz on the street. Right
Speaker 2: after that, some competition firing up on this show. I've
Speaker 2: got a story about a doctor that you got to
Speaker 2: hear to believe in. An update on the Courtney Stadden situation,
Speaker 2: and all of that is coming up next on the news.
Speaker 1: Joe Key.
Speaker 2: Se so gonna see him. Let me tell you something
Speaker 2: I have so many people that have run into me
Speaker 2: maybe the last couple of months and have had nice
Speaker 2: things to say about the show and have been so generous,
Speaker 2: you guys, and you gotta stop sending me shots. For
Speaker 2: God's sake. I feel so bad. I like this has
Speaker 2: happened so much in the last couple of months. It's
Speaker 2: like the best problem in the world to have. But
Speaker 2: thank you. Did happened last oh, last night and the
Speaker 2: night before. Actually this has been piling up quite a bit,
Speaker 2: but I thank you for that. And if you want
Speaker 2: to learn more about the show, go over to the
Speaker 2: website thenews junkie dot com because I got a text
Speaker 2: from one of them. Oh did you I will anyway?
Speaker 5: That was that was the day before you. Yes, that
Speaker 5: was the guy.
Speaker 2: He goes, I'm Sea Lane's friend, and I go, I
Speaker 2: hear that a lot, but are you actually yes?
Speaker 5: He is okay haha.
Speaker 4: So I saw Sean New Junkie and I said, Hi,
Speaker 4: I think I made a fool of myself emoji.
Speaker 2: He did not make a fool of himself at all. No,
Speaker 2: he was very very nice. Actually, I haven't even had
Speaker 2: a single person that's come up and Ben Weird I'll
Speaker 2: be the weird one. If you want when you show
Speaker 2: up and say hi in public, that'll be fine. I
Speaker 2: did see this, and I think this is a good idea.
Speaker 2: I'm going to wander into an area here where I'm
Speaker 2: going to need a little help and a little expertise.
Speaker 2: But the story got my attention because of my experience
Speaker 2: in this world. And the story was that CBS is
Speaker 2: now offering CBS is offering new pharmacy options for pet owners.
Speaker 2: And I said, oh, well, it's a boad time because
Speaker 2: we have a vet that we go to that's great
Speaker 2: that we bring Lady, our Cavalier King Charles Spaniel too.
Speaker 2: It's such an annoying, ritzy sounding dog, but she's great
Speaker 2: and if you ever watch the stream on YouTube you'll
Speaker 2: see her sometime probably. But we bring our dog to
Speaker 2: this vet try to make sure she's as healthy as possible.
Speaker 2: And there's various things that we get for they have
Speaker 2: like those you know, the heartworms and the flea and
Speaker 2: the check thing. Yeah, they're pretty expensive some of them actually,
Speaker 2: And the biggest complaint that I have about them is
Speaker 2: that they're a little bit hard to get. So sometimes
Speaker 2: the vet will will go, okay, I'll give you the
Speaker 2: script for this, you have to go to this particular
Speaker 2: website and like put in this code and like, can
Speaker 2: we just get something that we get at a doctor.
Speaker 2: Just give me a piece of paper and then I
Speaker 2: could take it to the place. And now you're required
Speaker 2: to do that as of late in the state of
Speaker 2: Florida in particularly, it's different in different states, but in
Speaker 2: some states you're required to do this. And this story
Speaker 2: says CBS Pharmacy is expanding into pet healthcare by allowing
Speaker 2: customers to feel commons for dogs and cats at roughly
Speaker 2: nine thousand locations around the country. The pharmacy chain said
Speaker 2: pet owners can obtain select medications including antibiotics, allergy treatments,
Speaker 2: flee in tick control products, insulin, and pain relievers. Customers
Speaker 2: can bring in a written prescription and if you ask
Speaker 2: your vet in most cases they have to do this.
Speaker 2: They will just give you an act like one that
Speaker 2: they would for you if it was you, and they
Speaker 2: give you this prescription for a to bring into a
Speaker 2: CBS pharmacy, or you can ask the veterinarity to contact
Speaker 2: the pharmacy directly. Eligible prescriptions may be available for delivery.
Speaker 2: It's good because sometimes it's like a little annoying to
Speaker 2: try to get this stuff. Big Doug Millionaire says, you
Speaker 2: should not need a prescription for pet meds. I think
Speaker 2: that they do that, and I can make an argument
Speaker 2: for why they should do it this way.
Speaker 5: Big Doug Millionaire on Chat.
Speaker 2: I think that they do that because they don't want
Speaker 2: people self diagnosing their pets.
Speaker 4: Googling, oh my pet is lethargic, and they they go
Speaker 4: to the wrong website and says, well, your pet needs
Speaker 4: What's the stuff that they were everybody was trying to
Speaker 4: take during COVID.
Speaker 2: Humans? Yeah, yeah, shoot, I can't name somebody will remember it.
Speaker 2: The the stuff that they said was for horses and
Speaker 2: then Joe Rogan and then that whole thing whatever that was. Yeah,
Speaker 2: they'll they'll try to they'll try to do this themselves.
Speaker 2: You don't want them to do that. People are dumb.
Speaker 2: They will kill their animals, and you need veterinarians and
Speaker 2: to make sure they're not getting ivermectin for their pup.
Speaker 2: But we also need to make it so it's pretty
Speaker 2: simple for you to get whatever the prescription is and
Speaker 2: then to be able to get a good deal on
Speaker 2: on the item you're looking for and for a little while.
Speaker 2: The one vet we were going to, they literally told
Speaker 2: us there was only one website that you could purchase
Speaker 2: the prescriptions from from and it was expensive. I said,
Speaker 2: we can't like shop around and like, no, no, you
Speaker 2: got to get it from this service. They're related to
Speaker 2: the clinic. So I think this is good for all
Speaker 2: pet owners, which probably includes you. That gives pet owners
Speaker 2: another option beyond veterinary offices, online pet pharmacies, and specialty retailers,
Speaker 2: particularly when file filling recurring prescriptions for animals undergoing ongoing treatments.
Speaker 2: So CVS is now going to help you out. Pet
Speaker 2: owners can now also add their animals to their CVS
Speaker 2: dot com profiles and manageable managed prescriptions through the app.
Speaker 2: That sounds good. That sounds like a smart idea. If
Speaker 2: you've utilized this before I know more about it, please
Speaker 2: do help us out. Send a dispatch with the information
Speaker 2: over on thenewsjunkie dot com.
Speaker 4: I certainly wouldn't mind the option if I, you know,
Speaker 4: if I've added my animal to CVS, because I already
Speaker 4: am being forced to go to CVS to get my
Speaker 4: own prescriptions because I have like one of those care
Speaker 4: Mark packages. And if I try to. If I try
Speaker 4: to fill my prescriptions at publics, they either won't give
Speaker 4: me a ninety day supply or they'll charge me more
Speaker 4: or something, and they're just kind of a pain in
Speaker 4: the ass about it. So I have to go CVS anyway.
Speaker 4: So if if.
Speaker 2: They're going to offer it there and it would be cheaper,
Speaker 2: that's a win win. Yeah, I agree, I think, And
Speaker 2: there's a lot of people are joining in on the discussion.
Speaker 2: Here's insecure wall risk.
Speaker 18: So I was actually at CVS the other day trying
Speaker 18: to pick up one of my wife's medications, and our
Speaker 18: insurance is real goofy and trying to work stuff out.
Speaker 18: And the lady next to me in line, it's an
Speaker 18: older lady and she's picking up medicine I realized for
Speaker 18: her dog, and the pharmacist is like, what's the patient's name,
Speaker 18: and she was like, Mitzi because that's their last name.
Speaker 18: She was like, I guess it's I guess it's mine.
Speaker 18: I said her last name. But they list the dogs
Speaker 18: just like a person when it comes to prescriptions.
Speaker 2: Apparently they's the last name, all that kind of stuff.
Speaker 18: So I would have figured it would have like fallen
Speaker 18: under the lady that owns them or something.
Speaker 3: Oh, anyways, kind of strange.
Speaker 4: What's the most ridiculous dog name that you would have
Speaker 4: to answer that too.
Speaker 2: You've got something a little offensive for your dog name,
Speaker 2: and they go what's the name? And you're like, ah,
Speaker 2: you go a little edgy. I mean, I've told you
Speaker 2: before that.
Speaker 4: They say, like in the puppy books, there's a little
Speaker 4: section on coming up with a puppy name, and they're like,
Speaker 4: make sure it's something that you'll feel comfortable screaming in
Speaker 4: public if the puppy runs away and you eat something
Speaker 4: until you read it. You don't always think about stuff
Speaker 4: like that, but now you also have to think about
Speaker 4: showing up to the pharmacy and they're like, what's the
Speaker 4: patient's name?
Speaker 1: Yeah?
Speaker 2: Man, yeah, it's the word it is. I hate to say.
Speaker 2: Here's Lisa on the same topic.
Speaker 15: Sean Celane, Happy Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday. You guys are
Speaker 15: talking about the pet prescriptions. This is something I have done.
Speaker 15: I love my vet lover to death. But that office
Speaker 15: is the medication is usually more expensive. It's good BBS, Walgreens,
Speaker 15: all those traditional pharmacies, including publics, offer much better prices,
Speaker 15: especially for some of the more common things. My vet
Speaker 15: will even call in the p scription to sea Bass.
Speaker 15: It's always it was fun the funny the first time
Speaker 15: when I had to pick up a prescription for Baxter
Speaker 15: or prescription for delmar got rest of soul, the cat
Speaker 15: that passed away earlier this year. But pretty common. My
Speaker 15: bet is awesome. She doesn't have a problem doing it.
Speaker 15: Even have the heartworm take medication sent into chewy just
Speaker 15: because it's easy, delivers right to the house. I hope
Speaker 15: you have a wonderful day.
Speaker 6: Wig will pop up.
Speaker 2: Thank you. You too could join us on the show.
Speaker 2: Send a dispatch just like Lisa right there, record yours
Speaker 2: right now and get on the show at thenewsjunky dot com.
Speaker 2: All right, let's see I tease this doctor story, so
Speaker 2: let me do this real quick, because this is crazy.
Speaker 2: This is a true story about a doctor who has
Speaker 2: lost his license and uh, you know that's a that's
Speaker 2: the least that we could do here. This says. This
Speaker 2: is the story about Spokane, Washington and a doctor there.
Speaker 2: The permanent suspension of a Spokane doctor's medical license was
Speaker 2: upheld last week. Wait to hear what this guy did
Speaker 2: After the man was convicted of a scheme that involved
Speaker 2: him hiring a hit man. The guy hired a hitman
Speaker 2: to drug his ex wife and her son with heroin
Speaker 2: with the intent to get them addicted to heroin and
Speaker 2: then hold his wife hostage with hopes the hit man
Speaker 2: would have sex with the uh wait, with hopes she
Speaker 2: would have sex with him three times. So, just to reiterate,
Speaker 2: there's a doctor who's got his license.
Speaker 5: Suspended, he hired a hit man.
Speaker 2: He wanted the hit man to drug his ex wife
Speaker 2: and son with heroin so they got addicted, keep them
Speaker 2: strung out on this, and then hold his ex wife
Speaker 2: hostage so that he could come over and have sex
Speaker 2: with her three times.
Speaker 5: All right, that's what this guy's plan was. That's what
Speaker 5: he was going to do.
Speaker 2: Ronald Ilge used the dark Web to solicit a hitman
Speaker 2: with the intent to injure a former colleague who previously
Speaker 2: worked at his medical practice, using the name Scar two fifteen.
Speaker 2: He paid the hitman two thousand dollars in Bitcoin and
Speaker 2: instructed him to carry out an attack where his former
Speaker 2: colleague should be given a significant beating that's obvious, injure
Speaker 2: both hands significantly or break the hands. Then he wanted
Speaker 2: confirmation of the sault the assault and said he had
Speaker 2: a more complicated job for the hit man if this
Speaker 2: was successful. So he consulted the dark web again and
Speaker 2: paid sixty thousand dollars in bitcoin to a hit man
Speaker 2: for another attack to kidnap his estranged wife, extort her,
Speaker 2: inject her with drugs, and hold her hostage for seven days.
Speaker 2: He created a bonus scheme if other demands were met.
Speaker 2: He wanted to make love to her. Well probably just
Speaker 2: you know, that wouldn't be what was happening here, But
Speaker 2: you got it three times in the two week frame,
Speaker 2: and the hit man was ordered to supine with photographs
Speaker 2: and videos of her using the substance. Wow, unbelievable, bleed, degenerate,
Speaker 2: the prey of the behavior. This is a doctor out there, right,
Speaker 2: This is this was somebody who was a doctor, and
Speaker 2: now his medical license is suspended. You know how we
Speaker 2: say all his more punishments than that, though, right, You
Speaker 2: know how we.
Speaker 4: Say all hitmen are fake, mostly the ones that you
Speaker 4: find on the dark web, the ones you find on
Speaker 4: the internet. If you find a hit man, it's usually fake. Yeah,
Speaker 4: if his hit man is offering this much options, like
Speaker 4: I would assume that if you're an actual bonafide hit
Speaker 4: man who gets paid to kill people, you want to
Speaker 4: be in out. Take the shot, leave, goodbye, drop a
Speaker 4: pill in the in the drink bye.
Speaker 2: You got to be out of there. You want you Well,
Speaker 2: this guy to kidnapper and hold.
Speaker 4: Her somewhere, Yeah, come and engage in acts that would
Speaker 4: leave a lot of identifying evidence around.
Speaker 5: Absolutely. This guy was unhinged.
Speaker 2: In August of twenty twenty two, and this guy pleaded
Speaker 2: guilty in federal court to two counts of threats in
Speaker 2: interstate commerce. He got ninety six months in prison following
Speaker 2: the guilty plea. He was charged with unprofessional conduct, and
Speaker 2: now they've taken away his license as well, thus so
Speaker 2: making it so he cannot practice as a physician and
Speaker 2: surgeon in the state of Washington. My yeah, that's a
Speaker 2: crazy one, but people are a little wild out there.

Speaker 4: of the British men's soccer team, and they were gonna
Speaker 4: just kill it off right there. But it was so popular.
Speaker 4: It was such a huge hit that they said, no,
Speaker 4: we have to have more Ted Lasso. And now the
Speaker 4: new Ted last season, he's coaching like a women's team. Right, yeah,
Speaker 4: so women's team in America, which means he had to
Speaker 4: make and he personally did this, which props to him
Speaker 4: for that. He had to make a lot of awkward
Speaker 4: phone calls to some of the stars of ted Lasso,
Speaker 4: whose characters were based in Britain. Tadakas and his fellow
Speaker 4: co creators brainstormed about continuing the show and landed on
Speaker 4: a fourth season centering on the all female team. The
Speaker 4: new creative direction meant that the fictional AFC Richmond team
Speaker 4: at the center of the first season would not return,
Speaker 4: and fifty year old Jason Sedakas was tesked with explaining
Speaker 4: that to the actors who played those teammates in very
Speaker 4: difficult individual phone calls. He told The Hollywood Reporter, he said,
Speaker 4: I didn't want him to hear it on the internet.
Speaker 4: I love those guys and we all went through something together.
Speaker 4: So he had to call like a bunch of the
Speaker 4: people that played team members of the AFC Richmond and
Speaker 4: been like, hey, listen, I'm sorry, we're gonna do another
Speaker 4: season of ted Lasso. Bud good news, bad news, You're
Speaker 4: not going to be in it, which I mean, they're
Speaker 4: not gonna be regulars in it. There might be some
Speaker 4: cameos stuff like that. The old team will not be
Speaker 4: coming back to the show, but lead actors including Sadakis,
Speaker 4: Hannah Wattingham, Jeremy Swift, Juno Temple and Brett Goldstein all
Speaker 4: are slated to return for the long waited fourth installment. Hey,
Speaker 4: some fans of the Beatles got quite the surprise. You
Speaker 4: don't expect to get this when you book your tickets
Speaker 4: to the Magical Mystery Tour bus over in Liverpool, But
Speaker 4: the Beatles fans on the tour of Liverpool got the
Speaker 4: experience of a lifetime when their bus pulled up next
Speaker 4: to at a traffic light. Sir Paul McCartney. Wow, what
Speaker 4: are the chances of that? The chance encounter was made
Speaker 4: all the more surreal when it emerged that Paul McCartney
Speaker 4: was facetiming with Ringo Star at the moment that happened. Yeah,
Speaker 4: pull this up, Paul McCartney. You know, fans tour bus
Speaker 4: something like that. You'll see there's a picture of Sir
Speaker 4: Paul with his window down, waiting at the people and
Speaker 4: then holding up his phone where Ringo Starr is online
Speaker 4: is on the phone.
Speaker 2: Got that this is from the BBC. Right here, okay,
Speaker 2: here's Paul McCartney.
Speaker 3: On a magical mysty sword at the Beatles and let
Speaker 3: me see.
Speaker 2: He's on the phone.
Speaker 21: You every all kind of hurled to one side of
Speaker 21: the bus to get a picture.
Speaker 2: It's luckily we've got a traffic lights stops. That's so crazy,
Speaker 2: what a moment. It's just extraordinary on I suppose, and
Speaker 2: he pulls up right next to the tour bus with
Speaker 2: his phone out, with Ringo on the phone, Ringo, Ringo,
Speaker 2: there's a t f of us. You might as well
Speaker 2: stop doing the tour now. You're not going to beat
Speaker 2: that moment out of think.
Speaker 4: Neil Morton, who has driven the Magical Mystery Tour bus
Speaker 4: around Beatles hotspots in Liverpool for the last two years,
Speaker 4: says it was surreal I had pulled up at the
Speaker 4: traffic lights on Hope Street. When who would I see
Speaker 4: Sir Paul with Ringo on FaceTime, which, to be fair,
Speaker 4: Ringo is a sir as well, Sir Sir Richard Starkey,
Speaker 4: but nobody talks about But you know they were having
Speaker 4: a little chat and the passengers could not believe it.
Speaker 4: The tour guide said that well, no one got a
Speaker 4: chance to speak with McCartney. It wasn't his first encounter
Speaker 4: with the star. He met the Wing singer when he
Speaker 4: used to work at the Cavern Club. We were told
Speaker 4: not to take photos, but he told the BBC, I
Speaker 4: managed to sneak one. And speaking of people that I
Speaker 4: don't know, I am not familiar with this rapper slash
Speaker 4: live streamer. But have you heard of Blueface?
Speaker 2: Yes? Yeah, Blueface is a rapper, more so I would
Speaker 2: say than a live streamer. But maybe he's doing that soon.
Speaker 13: Well.
Speaker 4: He was live streaming when he was briefly detained outside
Speaker 4: his home Tuesday evening after police responded to a swatting
Speaker 4: call during one of his kickstreams. Officers placed the la
Speaker 4: rapper and handcuffs before determining the emergency report was false.
Speaker 4: He said, chat, we've been swatted, he sold his viewers sarcastically,
Speaker 4: adding it's great for content. Police were told that we
Speaker 4: shot three people and they were all dead on the floor.
Speaker 4: The hoax caller falsely claimed blue Face had killed his
Speaker 4: girlfriend and restrained her child, but both the officers confirmed
Speaker 4: both were safe and the stream was able to go on.
Speaker 4: Blueface having a little bit of a scare but silver lining.
Speaker 4: He said it was great for his content.
Speaker 2: It's Thursday.
Speaker 4: Let's check out what's at the Boss box office this weekend,
Speaker 4: and not a lot of contenders to go up against
Speaker 4: The Odyssey and all the other big ringers that are
Speaker 4: in theaters right now. However, a couple horror films Haunted
Speaker 4: Heist with Tiffany Hattish, a comedy horror mystery. Pinocchio Unstrung
Speaker 4: is Pinocchio one of those things that's just like in
Speaker 4: the public domain now, so we're allowed to just do
Speaker 4: whatever we want with Pinocchio, Like maybe that's a horror movie. Yeah,
Speaker 4: it's a fantasy horror thriller. Pinocchio Unstrung is on a
Speaker 4: limited release as well as Haities Town the Musical, which
Speaker 4: is the one that I saw last time I was
Speaker 4: in New York, the one where they had very tiny
Speaker 4: seats not made for people of my size, and MotorCity

Speaker 4: going to roll their eyes at this, but I think
Speaker 4: it's pretty cool. On Sunday, a limited re release of

Speaker 2: that I am not doing. I don't care how much
Speaker 2: money you throw at me. This ain't happening, but people
Speaker 2: are doing it right now. What is it that's coming
Speaker 2: up next on the News Junkie, Don remind people where
Speaker 2: you went here over the last couple of weeks on
Speaker 2: your trip.
Speaker 10: I did a cruise in Alaska that's been a bucket
Speaker 10: listing for a few years. And then at the tail
Speaker 10: end of the Alaska trip, got chosen to be at
Speaker 10: the New York Stock Exchange to do the close be
Speaker 10: part of a group of people doing the ringing of
Speaker 10: the closing nor Well that was last Friday, and then
Speaker 10: got home Saturday one in the morning, just in time
Speaker 10: to do my show on Saturday morning at nine am.
Speaker 2: Man, that is like a bucket list adventure, right there,
Speaker 2: Both of those things. So, first of all, everybody who's
Speaker 2: been to Alaska on a cruise and as far as
Speaker 2: I hear, that's the way to do Alaska. It's the cruise.
Speaker 2: You go and just like cruise through the place, and
Speaker 2: it's so stunning visually, was it like that?
Speaker 10: Unbelievable? Man, every time I thought I had seen the
Speaker 10: coolest thing I'd ever done, Like I did a helicopter
Speaker 10: thing up to a glacier and that was the coolest
Speaker 10: thing I'd ever done. And then the next day you
Speaker 10: do something else or see something else that was even cooler.
Speaker 10: And then even on the days that are sea days,
Speaker 10: you're still going by mountains and glaciers and it's just incredible.
Speaker 10: I definitely recommend.
Speaker 2: My God, you flew from here to Alaska to get
Speaker 2: on the cruise, then I'm imagining they have you go.
Speaker 10: Well, the one that I went on, I went on
Speaker 10: the Princess Cruise, and that one goes out of Vancouver,
Speaker 10: So you fly to Canada to Vancouver and then you
Speaker 10: go out of there. There's different ways of doing it.
Speaker 10: Some you go up for three days and then back
Speaker 10: for three or four days. Ours went from from Vancouver
Speaker 10: all the way up to Anchorage, stopping at multiple stops
Speaker 10: along the way, and then you can also do the
Speaker 10: reverse from from Anchorage on the way back.
Speaker 2: Well, how long was your longest flight though to get
Speaker 2: to get over there?
Speaker 10: How longest it was? It was two flights both ways.
Speaker 10: But like on the way back, I flew direct from
Speaker 10: Anchorage to Atlanta. That's like seven a little over seven hours.
Speaker 5: Is that the longest you've ever gone on a flight
Speaker 5: or now?
Speaker 10: No, I've done longer once to Europe, But yeah, that's
Speaker 10: seven hours is a good long time.
Speaker 2: Right now, they're doing a test flight, like literally right now,
Speaker 2: and this is this flight, And I thought, I don't
Speaker 2: I don't think I could do that. Sea Lane could
Speaker 2: because it didn't care about being on a plane at all.
Speaker 4: But no, when I get to those long flights, I
Speaker 4: mean and long for me, like we're going three to
Speaker 4: four hours. Once we're getting past that, Once we're getting
Speaker 4: past like the three hour mark, Yeah, yeah, I need
Speaker 4: to like get up and walk around because my butt
Speaker 4: hurts after while. Guys, there's no there's no nice way
Speaker 4: of saying, my butt is killing me after a while,
Speaker 4: your bud.
Speaker 2: This is this is the world's largest NonStop flight, and
Speaker 2: they're doing the test flight for right now, and it's
Speaker 2: a twenty two hour flight. It's twenty two hour flight.
Speaker 2: They're scheduling this like about a year fro an hour
Speaker 2: or something, but they're doing the test flight right now.
Speaker 2: And the Airbus A three fifty one thousand that it's
Speaker 2: on has like four hundred people on board. There are
Speaker 2: four pilots that switch off, and you they're flying for
Speaker 2: that long.
Speaker 5: It was the most traffic.
Speaker 2: Plane in the world on flight Radar twenty four, so
Speaker 2: everybody's just kind of following this thing along as it's
Speaker 2: cruising and then you know, on and on and on
Speaker 2: and on twenty two hours. I personally, I couldn't do it.
Speaker 2: You could throw all the money in the world at me.
Speaker 2: I don't know that I'd be able to.
Speaker 4: It would have to be one of those like super
Speaker 4: premium first class tickets where you got like pretty much
Speaker 4: a little suite there that folds out to a bed
Speaker 4: and then the chair kind of swivels around and you
Speaker 4: got all different kinds of entertainment for you and Caviare
Speaker 4: and I would do it.
Speaker 2: I would sure do it. You would do it in
Speaker 2: the most expensive scenario you ever have laid down, I
Speaker 2: would have to go right home on a rickety boat
Speaker 2: because I would be out of money. Yeah right, I
Speaker 2: mean all in one way.
Speaker 10: Where are they taking you in twenty two hours that
Speaker 10: you can't get to in say, ten hours from somewhere else.
Speaker 5: I guess it's going to be.
Speaker 2: So the idea was to bring the world's first NonStop
Speaker 2: commercial flights flights from Australia.
Speaker 5: Sydney to London and Sydney to New York.
Speaker 1: Wow.
Speaker 5: So those are going to be like twenty two hour flights.
Speaker 2: Now. Currently, if somebody wants to do one of those flights,
Speaker 2: they have to do one of those like chains of
Speaker 2: flights and then oh god, you know, thirty six hours
Speaker 2: or something is what it's taken you to get from
Speaker 2: from one place to another. I just can't do those
Speaker 2: kind of long trips like that. I don't have it
Speaker 2: in my blood.
Speaker 4: But but don that was your very first time on
Speaker 4: a cruise ship, right, that was my first ever cruise ship.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I've never done it before. What ship?
Speaker 10: People are asking the Princess that was on the island Island,
Speaker 10: Princess Island, Princess. It holds about two thousand passengers, about
Speaker 10: seven hundred crew, all right, so it's kind of kind
Speaker 10: of mid sized.
Speaker 5: Was it like a party atmosphere on there or what?
Speaker 10: No, No, it was. I was one of the young
Speaker 10: I was one of the younger people there on the crew.
Speaker 10: You know, it was an older for that. Yeah, it was.
Speaker 10: Some of the people that I was with, we were
Speaker 10: joking like we were a Princess cruise nines, you know,
Speaker 10: like you're here here here a six in real life,
Speaker 10: but on a Princess cruise, baby, you know.
Speaker 2: And they're like, what you kids doing on this cruise?
Speaker 4: You know, on an Alaskan cruise? Do people still get
Speaker 4: in the pool on the pool deck or is it
Speaker 4: too cold for that? It was, you know, I saw
Speaker 4: people in the hot tubs NonStop.
Speaker 2: That would make sense.
Speaker 10: Even though the pools that they had one pool that
Speaker 10: was indoors kind of in class, there were people in
Speaker 10: that one, But the one that was out on the
Speaker 10: upper deck it could be pretty brisk up there. Sometimes
Speaker 10: I would probably go out of my way to hit
Speaker 10: the hot tub up just to say, like, look at me.
Speaker 5: Alaskan cruise doing the hot tub thing I did.
Speaker 10: I was gonna go in the hot tub, and then
Speaker 10: I did the math of six hot tubs and two
Speaker 10: thousand passengers, and I passed.
Speaker 4: Don't do the math, Shohn. Check your text message. I
Speaker 4: sent you a video of Dawn at the Stock Exchange
Speaker 4: and his group bringing the bell.
Speaker 22: Whats that's the actual ballot? That's cool. Well, the news
Speaker 22: desk it's right there, Soday.
Speaker 2: Is that CNBC right there?
Speaker 10: Yeah, it's right right behind you. And so you've got
Speaker 10: the in front of you. The news desk is right there.
Speaker 10: Very cool experience to do that.
Speaker 2: Oh that's lame. Now he went from this to coming
Speaker 2: back on this show that this show seems so much
Speaker 2: less impressive.
Speaker 5: After you've been on CNBC. He's like, I look, I was,
Speaker 5: you know CNBC.
Speaker 4: This said a little bit Ceilan and the booth and
Speaker 4: shorts just slumming it.
Speaker 2: And I was on CNBC ceilings running around from studio
Speaker 2: to studio.
Speaker 5: Has Don's telling us his cruise stories.
Speaker 4: Here because somebody turned down my my my pod on
Speaker 4: the on the main board.
Speaker 2: Good, that's good. I told Fritz to do it. I
Speaker 2: told him to do it. That's very cool. So you
Speaker 2: got to ring the bell with all these folks at
Speaker 2: the New York Stock Exchange, and.
Speaker 10: It's kind of an honor. I was chosen there. My
Speaker 10: brokerage was chosen as one of the top one hundred
Speaker 10: in the country, and so the owners of all the
Speaker 10: top one hundred got to go there and be there
Speaker 10: for the closing bell.
Speaker 2: That's Friday. That's amazing. That's that's very very cool. Sounds
Speaker 2: like a fun trip, and these kind of experiences are
Speaker 2: the ones that people strive for. It's crazy that you
Speaker 2: went to Alaska. I literally, I think two or three
Speaker 2: weeks ago, watched a video of these folks, and I
Speaker 2: haven't really wanted to go to Alaska, but it made
Speaker 2: me want to go to Alaska so bad. They went
Speaker 2: on a cruise and they took one of those chopper
Speaker 2: tours to the the icebergs, like you were saying or whatever,
Speaker 2: and they did a like a dog racing thing, like
Speaker 2: what what's that?
Speaker 5: What's the long dog race? That's not it I did.
Speaker 5: They did the video I was watching.
Speaker 2: They went out and there's these teams and they the
Speaker 2: dogs pull the sleds and they go across the country
Speaker 2: and stuff and they fly in on the chopper and
Speaker 2: do that in the visuals.
Speaker 5: Like you'll never see anything like that again in your life.
Speaker 5: Probably it was.
Speaker 10: That was one of the options we could have done,
Speaker 10: but that was like a six hour excursion I did.
Speaker 10: I did one where you fly up through the mountain,
Speaker 10: like when you look up and you see the snowcap mountains.
Speaker 10: Then you get in the helicopter and you're literally flying
Speaker 10: up through the snowcaps, weaving in and out of the mountaintops,
Speaker 10: and then you land on the glacier and walk around.
Speaker 10: It is it's like a simulation. It's so unreal to
Speaker 10: do that. Yeah, up there. I didn't do this.
Speaker 5: It's kind of a lot right, Like it's.
Speaker 10: Overwhelming, Yeah, because it you can't hear you know, the chopper.
Speaker 10: You're you're there and you think, Okay, if something happens,
Speaker 10: I'm done, because these are like sheer rock cliffs going
Speaker 10: down three four thousand feet. But it's just incredible. There's
Speaker 10: no other way to describe it except I highly recommend
Speaker 10: for you.
Speaker 5: It seems like a fun time that that's the ship
Speaker 5: he was on.
Speaker 1: Though.
Speaker 2: Folks that went out there, I know there's a lot
Speaker 2: of them, and my parents went on one sort of
Speaker 2: at some point in time, and they were like they
Speaker 2: wouldn't stop talking about it. Man for the best kind
Speaker 2: of ways, but that's a good time. And he was
Speaker 2: out there with all the other experts, the mortgage experts
Speaker 2: that know much more about what's going on in the
Speaker 2: financial world with houses and getting your first house and
Speaker 2: all of this stuff than anybody else out there. This
Speaker 2: is what that mortgage guy Don does. It's literally in
Speaker 2: his name, for God's sake. So right now, where are
Speaker 2: we at with with time to buy houses, time to
Speaker 2: sell houses, or.
Speaker 10: Where are we at? We're having the busiest purchase market
Speaker 10: we've had all year. I mean, just it's always that
Speaker 10: way though in the summer, in May, June, July, it's
Speaker 10: it's the time. It's the time to purchase. Everybody wants
Speaker 10: to move while the kids are out of school or
Speaker 10: when they're you know, when they're they're going to change schools,
Speaker 10: and so it's super busy out there. We're doing a
Speaker 10: ton of home equity lines. That's another big thing that
Speaker 10: a lot of people are doing because they've got like
Speaker 10: a really good first mortgage rate maybe a two three
Speaker 10: or four, but they want to get some equity out.
Speaker 10: So the home equity line of credit or the helock
Speaker 10: loone is the number one thing we're doing right now.
Speaker 5: Can we talk about that real quick.
Speaker 2: Let's say you're in some sort of position where you
Speaker 2: need to get hold of some funds and you want
Speaker 2: to do one of those home equity lines of credit.
Speaker 2: It's an idea that a lot of people do. I
Speaker 2: know that people use it sometimes to get work done
Speaker 2: on their house. I think one of these before I.
Speaker 4: Did one to buy an air conditioner one time.
Speaker 2: To get an AC Are there like limits or rules
Speaker 2: on what you can get one of those helocks for
Speaker 2: those lines of credit?
Speaker 10: It's kept by the value of the property. So most
Speaker 10: banks are going to cap you at about eighty percent
Speaker 10: of the value of your home. We have some that
Speaker 10: go up as high as ninety five percent of the
Speaker 10: value of your home.
Speaker 2: So that's what.
Speaker 10: Caps you, is the appraised value of the property. As
Speaker 10: to how much you can get out.
Speaker 5: What can you spend it on? Can you spend out
Speaker 5: whatever you want?
Speaker 10: You can spend it's your it's cash money. It just
Speaker 10: gets wired into your checking account, you know, and you
Speaker 10: can or you can leave it in there and draw
Speaker 10: it out as needed, depending on the type of loan
Speaker 10: that you do. But I'll tell you one of the
Speaker 10: most common things I'm seeing people do. People that have
Speaker 10: racked up one hundred, one hundred and fifty k in
Speaker 10: credit card debt for whatever reas and you know you're
Speaker 10: paying twenty nine thirty percent on that debt. So people
Speaker 10: that refinance that with their equity are cutting their payments
Speaker 10: and saving four or five grand a month on those
Speaker 10: interest payments in that kind of level.
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, pay it all off.
Speaker 2: These are the things that you need to know. And
Speaker 2: this is a guy that this is his world. So
Speaker 2: if you're going to buy a house, if you're looking
Speaker 2: to get a home equity, line of credit, helock or
Speaker 2: whatever they're called. I don't know about these things, but
Speaker 2: I know somebody who does. That's that mortgage Guy Don.
Speaker 2: You can go to his website, that Mortgage Guy Don
Speaker 2: dot com. Make sure you're listening to the show this weekend.

Speaker 2: have a lot of ground to cover. That's all coming
Speaker 2: up next on the News Junkie Surrey Duty on the Wag.
Speaker 2: Never have I ever scared a woman away as quickly
Speaker 2: as I just did. I mean my guy Cork.
Speaker 5: Yeah, she popped into the studio.
Speaker 2: She goes some equipment or some dumb thing you ordered
Speaker 2: us here, and she's being nice about it and she

Speaker 2: it was like as a DTI. Baby, that's like a
Speaker 2: studio DTI right there. And she like, are you saying
Speaker 2: explaining the DT. I didn't make her DTF. Oh it
Speaker 2: did not. No, whatever the opposite of DTF is she
Speaker 2: she yeah, it was. She immediately just shut the door.
Speaker 2: I was in the middle of explaining what this was,
Speaker 2: and she's like, man, door shuts on me. And everybody's like, wow,
Speaker 2: she just served you up over there over on on
Speaker 2: skull mic. So yeah, it's gonna be good for you folks.
Speaker 2: None of you will notice, but trust me, it matters
Speaker 2: to me that the audio quality is as good as
Speaker 2: possible on this show.
Speaker 4: You are the laugh bit of the audience that you
Speaker 4: are trying to super serve.
Speaker 2: If only I can please my self doing this show,
Speaker 2: then I'll know I stand by what I said. One
Speaker 2: day I will please myself doing this show, and on
Speaker 2: that day I will know that everything I can do
Speaker 2: has been accomplished in radio. That's it.
Speaker 5: I'll listen. I'll be like, damn, that was good.
Speaker 2: Strategically, you did this right, you were your conversational, you
Speaker 2: nailed the content, you had the audience glue. You did
Speaker 2: check your check check all the boxes off. And one
Speaker 2: day I will do that and you'll never hear from
Speaker 2: me again. I just check out. I'll be like, I'm done.
Speaker 5: I did enough. That's it, that's all I got.
Speaker 2: What happened to Sean, Well, he pleased himself, so.
Speaker 5: I please myself. And when he does that, he disappears.
Speaker 2: That's it. It's like with with Alex Trebek on Jeopardy.
Speaker 4: If you answer his name backwards, yeah, he sends them Yeah.
Speaker 2: If I please you, Yeah, If I please myself on
Speaker 2: this radio show, then I turned inside out and you
Speaker 2: never see me again. It's the level I should rephrase
Speaker 2: this quality is what I'm going to be pleased.
Speaker 4: Did you ever see the clip of Jeopardy where somebody
Speaker 4: actually did that, Like one of the contestants on Jeopardy
Speaker 4: actually put as their final Jeopardy response kevert.
Speaker 2: Zella it's so funny.
Speaker 4: And the funny part was I don't know that Alex
Speaker 4: Trebec either had seen that family guy skit or knew
Speaker 4: anything about it or remembered it. So it was just like, oh,
Speaker 4: it's Alex Trebek backwards, and the guy was like, apparently
Speaker 4: I thunds you back to your realm.
Speaker 2: It was the cringiest nerdious guy. Well, I guess it
Speaker 2: didn't work. Speaking of that, my meme template from yesterday,
Speaker 2: which just to bring you guys up to speed on this,
Speaker 2: I was talking about yesterday potentially getting canceled because they
Speaker 2: were going after this streamer. He had a new prop
Speaker 2: in the background, which was a nine to eleven really
Speaker 2: a nine to twelve newspaper or the New York Times
Speaker 2: after the nine to eleven attacks. I said, I also
Speaker 2: have that, but you can't cancel me for it because
Speaker 2: I am a collector and officionado in the world of newspapers.
Speaker 2: So of course I have the New York Times nine
Speaker 2: to twelve first edition newspaper with the photo of the
Speaker 2: towers all blasted out. But I also have horrible newspaper
Speaker 2: headlines all and amazing ones too. I've like we landed
Speaker 2: on the Moon, you know, like I have those guys.
Speaker 2: Guys hear this, we landed on the Moon. I got
Speaker 2: the Philadelphia choir. I believe it is from the time
Speaker 2: we landed on the Moon. So anyways, I took a
Speaker 2: picture by this and now it's gone to this level.
Speaker 2: They've turned me into sort of a furry here and
Speaker 2: they put me in the frame and now it's like
Speaker 2: something called the Infinite Cat project. Where the Infinite Cat
Speaker 2: Project was somebody takes a picture of a cat and
Speaker 2: then you take a picture of that cat on your
Speaker 2: screen on your computer with your cat in front of it,
Speaker 2: and then somebody else takes a picture of your cat
Speaker 2: on the screen with the other cat on the screen
Speaker 2: in front of it, and then, you know, down down
Speaker 2: the line it goes they're doing that with me. I'm
Speaker 2: a couple of layers deep on that. Also for rate
Speaker 2: my blank, somebody's got the news joking. This is an
Speaker 2: unnumbered magnet that is incredibly old, huh. And then a
Speaker 2: rare one that was a the Tom and Dan crossover.
Speaker 2: It was a crossover that we did with Tom and Dan,
Speaker 2: and that was really limited. I don't I don't know
Speaker 2: if there was even a hundred of those, maybe there was.
Speaker 2: Those are pretty rare. Both of those.
Speaker 4: I like this one here. That's some Bootsy Moonshine posted
Speaker 4: of you. And it's the picture that you're pointing at.
Speaker 4: Is your your Guinness World Record of most consecutive days
Speaker 4: wearing a black hat in a row. Oh, this one's
Speaker 4: funny too. Yeah, this one. This one's a good one too.

Speaker 2: It says Guinness World Record Certificate, most consecutive days wearing
Speaker 2: a black hat in a row, Shawn Watson, five thousand.

Speaker 2: couldn't be done, but I did. You could see all
Speaker 2: the yourself over on the website in this one too.
Speaker 2: You can see all of these over on the website

Speaker 2: into oblivion, but it is such a good meme, so
Speaker 2: I appreciate that.
Speaker 5: Thank you so much. Talented people, talented, talented people.
Speaker 2: I told them, I said it. I said it.

Speaker 2: has been playing out in a courtroom, and this is
Speaker 2: as you might have mattered.
Speaker 5: Once, Hernon lucks, Hernon lucks.
Speaker 2: This guy in the Boston area, was arrested and he
Speaker 2: was charged with three counts of criminal harassment after engaging
Speaker 2: in quote, disturbing behavior while dressed as a mine as
Speaker 2: at a state park. So this guy was dressed as
Speaker 2: a mime. He's at a state Parkwait, I thought, I
Speaker 2: thought you said dressed as a mine. None, he was
Speaker 2: dressed as a mime, and they said he was. Three
Speaker 2: counts of criminal harassment were the charges, and he was
Speaker 2: engaging in disturbing behavior. This suspect, who often wore a
Speaker 2: cape and face paint, reportedly targeted two female Department of
Speaker 2: Conservation and Recreation employees over a two month period. So
Speaker 2: the mine was like harassing these ladies in the weirdest
Speaker 2: of ways. And he was in the courtroom. This guy
Speaker 2: is so weird and he passed out. He passed out
Speaker 2: in the courtroom.
Speaker 5: And here is the women report.
Speaker 21: Kaoed that dramatic moment caught on camera in court today
Speaker 21: when a suspect passed out in the middle of his arraignment.
Speaker 21: He is typically dressed as a mine. Prosecutor said, he
Speaker 21: is the man in these photos. They claim what he's
Speaker 21: a cures of harassing several women on the rail trail

Speaker 23: As Framingham District Courts, you guys, Sir Andrew Man reads
Speaker 23: the facts of the case against Hernan villagran Lux. The
Speaker 23: defendant passes out in the courtroom.
Speaker 2: Down he goes jeez or.
Speaker 23: Documents show he repeatedly harassed three young female DCR workers
Speaker 23: at the Coquituit State Park.
Speaker 17: The women report an extensive number of contacts with the defendant,
Speaker 17: involving him staring at them smiling in what they described
Speaker 17: as I'll quote a really unerving and frankly terrifying manner.
Speaker 23: According to Man, one of the women fifty encounters with him,
Speaker 23: situations they say became increasingly bold and in vasible.
Speaker 2: One hundred and fifty encounters with this weird mime guy. Wow,
Speaker 2: what a absolute weird of this guy is he was
Speaker 2: bothering these women at this state park so much that
Speaker 2: they ended up charging him.
Speaker 5: He passed out in the classroom.
Speaker 2: I don't know if he's been sentenced yet, but I
Speaker 2: hope they get him for a while because that's really
Speaker 2: bizarre behavior. And there he goes. Also in Jerry Duty,
Speaker 2: the US teenager who is trying to take down Meta,
Speaker 2: that's the parent company of Facebook and WhatsApp and a
Speaker 2: bunch of other things. The US teenager has dropped his
Speaker 2: Meta lawsuit on social media addiction just days before the
Speaker 2: trial was going to start. It was the latest and
Speaker 2: a massive series of high stakes lawsuits against social media
Speaker 2: companies for designing addictive products that led to the harm
Speaker 2: of children. The lawsuit, brought by a fifteen year old
Speaker 2: boy known as RKC, originally named four defendants, Google's YouTube,
Speaker 2: Meta's Instagram, Snap, Snap Inc. Snapchat in Bite Dances, TikTok YouTube,
Speaker 2: and TikTok settled in June. Snap reached the tentative settlement
Speaker 2: in the case, and now I guess Meta has as well,
Speaker 2: So that might mean it might mean that he got
Speaker 2: paid out by all of those platforms. I don't know.
Speaker 2: If he did, for sure, but that could be what
Speaker 2: that was just walked away with a big fat payday
Speaker 2: so they can get these cases behind them.
Speaker 1: I guess.
Speaker 2: Okay, quick break when we come back starting off the
Speaker 2: Power Hour. I did not know this was happening, but
Speaker 2: it is. There is a resurgence an Emerald the Chef
Speaker 2: for some reason on social media. I'll tell you why,
Speaker 2: and I'll play some of the clips for you that
Speaker 2: are going megaviral right now. We also have an update
Speaker 2: of the Courtney stodd In situation we talked about yesterday.
Speaker 2: We'll see what clips he Lane has for us, and
Speaker 2: so much more that's on the way. The Power Hour
Speaker 2: is coming up next on the News Junkie. Back in
Speaker 2: the day, on daytime television, my mom watched Emerald every
Speaker 2: single day.
Speaker 5: Right, would you consider daytime?
Speaker 2: I think so. I think it was on during the day, right.
Speaker 2: I think it was like I think it was, but
Speaker 2: like the main show. So he had a show that
Speaker 2: was like him by himself that was quite boring, and
Speaker 2: I think I would have to look this up. I
Speaker 2: think the catchphrases, especially the bam one bam, was because
Speaker 2: his show is like cooking with Emerald or whatever. The
Speaker 2: essence of Emerald, whatever the show was called, was just
Speaker 2: very not exciting, and I think the cameramen were falling
Speaker 2: asleep or something, so he would just be like to
Speaker 2: mess with them. He would be like, I'm just gonna
Speaker 2: throw a little salted in a bam. Well, that's how
Speaker 2: he used to be. The television shows Juliet Child, for example,
Speaker 2: those shows back in the day where they had chefs on.
Speaker 2: People would learn from it and a mom would learn
Speaker 2: recipes to cook for the family, and those kind of
Speaker 2: things would happen, for sure, but a lot of times
Speaker 2: it was very dull, boring television. And then Emerald came
Speaker 2: along and he was like, this is boring by camera.
Speaker 2: People are falling asleep. So he made it so freaking
Speaker 2: exciting and he made food like I'll play with some
Speaker 2: of the clips that are going viral gen Z people.
Speaker 2: Younger people are hearing this stuff for the first time
Speaker 2: and they're like, this was a food show. This is
Speaker 2: such a good time. Here's one of the biggest Emeral clips.
Speaker 2: Having a rough day and you need to kick it
Speaker 2: up a little. What I recommend would be the ad.
Speaker 5: Picked some a bottle of khaloo.
Speaker 3: Even you can add.
Speaker 2: A little bit of that. Hello, crowd full of alcoholics. Yes,
Speaker 2: alcohol in the food.
Speaker 4: I mean, how hot is that stove right now? With
Speaker 4: all the alcohol is gonna cook out? Don't worry. Yeah,
Speaker 4: he's just excited.
Speaker 2: And just in case you want you take a little rum.
Speaker 13: What Jamaica on?
Speaker 2: Oh literally, the Michael Scott of the food world. Come on,
Speaker 2: he was so pumped, he was so excited. He made
Speaker 2: food fun. There's another one I have for it. This
Speaker 2: one is such a great example too, Emerald. He wouldn't
Speaker 2: have a bunch of like suit wearing like uh, like
Speaker 2: stodgy losers in his studio. He would have like in
Speaker 2: this case, he has a bunch of construction workers wearing
Speaker 2: hard hats and they're sitting there watching Emerald. This dude
Speaker 2: cook up some spaghetti and meatballs, and all of the
Speaker 2: construction worker hard hat wearing guys were like, oh yeah,
Speaker 2: oh hell yeah, yeah. You take those meatballs.
Speaker 20: Yeah, made with the hot sausage, sweet sausage, A.
Speaker 2: Little bit of the chuck. There's a grown man.
Speaker 20: Oh man, gotta get that gravy over there like that.
Speaker 1: Now.
Speaker 2: I mean, you would be sure that the growings, grunts
Speaker 2: and sounds from these construction workers. Were them watching something
Speaker 2: very different but like a stripper. Yeah, their front row.
Speaker 20: And center for Emerald God Munch, which is what I
Speaker 20: generally do.
Speaker 5: It's not a problem.
Speaker 2: It's just spaghetti.
Speaker 20: I'm gonna show you, especially with you guys, I'm gonna
Speaker 20: show you exactly what you can do.
Speaker 2: Give it to me. Yeah, right, we'll take some parmesan. Yeah.
Speaker 2: That was the height of it all, baby, That's what
Speaker 2: made food fun all of a sudden. And it went
Speaker 2: from that into like these Top Chef and Master Chef shows.
Speaker 2: I went to a live taping of Emerald Live once
Speaker 2: you did Universal City Walk? Yeah, oh man, I we
Speaker 2: were me and a friend were going into the park
Speaker 2: just to hang out and ride rides like where he
Speaker 2: would see people and stuff. Yeah.
Speaker 4: And and we were going and as you know, walking
Speaker 4: into Universal Studios, you have to pass through City Walk.
Speaker 4: And as we're passing through City Walk, they had this
Speaker 4: big like stage build you know, the end right in
Speaker 4: front of the lake as you're walking in where there's
Speaker 4: that big flat space where they where they build out
Speaker 4: stuff sometimes. Yeah, walking through City Walk, they had a
Speaker 4: big stage built there and there was signs and I
Speaker 4: was like Emerald is here. Emerald And my friend that
Speaker 4: I was with was like, oh don't I don't want
Speaker 4: to go see the Emerald. This is stupid. Why do
Speaker 4: you want to? And like we went into the park
Speaker 4: and some of the lines are along. I was like,
Speaker 4: come on, man, let's let's let's go get in line,
Speaker 4: let's go, let's go see the Emerald.
Speaker 2: Let's let's do it. This was cool. It made chefs
Speaker 2: into like rock star. He was a rock star.
Speaker 4: He had like celebrity you know, they usually have some
Speaker 4: people on the table in front of him that he
Speaker 4: actually serves the food too. They had like celebrity guests
Speaker 4: like it was you know, it's Orlando, so like Lance Bass.
Speaker 2: I think it was one of them.
Speaker 4: It was like there was like local like famous musicians
Speaker 4: from Orlando and Orlando people that got to do it,
Speaker 4: and it was it was fun.
Speaker 5: It was fascinating to watch all that stuff go down.
Speaker 2: I really think that was the spark that lit off
Speaker 2: this celebrity chef explosion, which then led to such an improvement.
Speaker 2: People don't understand this. I don't think such an improvement
Speaker 2: in food everywhere in the United States of America. When
Speaker 2: people come over from the World Cup. The reason why
Speaker 2: they're so blown away is because of a lot of
Speaker 2: the strides that we've made in the last twenty to
Speaker 2: thirty years in the United States of America. One thing
Speaker 2: that's real obvious is stadiums. If you go to stadiums,
Speaker 2: it used to be hot dogs sitting in a vat
Speaker 2: of water. It used to be like seven to eleven food,
Speaker 2: some dirty water, dogs, bud. Now they I've elevated all
Speaker 2: these foods because people wanted better, they expected better, they
Speaker 2: were paying more money, they wanted a better quality experience,
Speaker 2: and all of a sudden, food everywhere, even just like
Speaker 2: your Applebee's, your chilies, those type of places. They started
Speaker 2: to make food better and we all probably got a
Speaker 2: little fatter off of it, but we all we all
Speaker 2: get to enjoy one of the great things to enjoy
Speaker 2: in life. One of the great reasons to be breathing
Speaker 2: and living and existing is eating good food with your
Speaker 2: friends and your family and enjoying yourself. I think that
Speaker 2: that guy was at the center of it. Unfortunately, then
Speaker 2: I think he went wild and went broke. I don't
Speaker 2: remember how, but I believe at some point he sold
Speaker 2: his like empire to Martha Stewart, I think if I possibly,
Speaker 2: I don't know.
Speaker 4: Now he's doing like infomercials for seven to one air fryers,
Speaker 4: and I go, who has the pictures of you? Who
Speaker 4: has the evidence against Emerald Man?
Speaker 2: He sold off all of that stuff, as I recall,
Speaker 2: like his name is the all the things that he
Speaker 2: had under the Emerald umbrella.
Speaker 4: He had two restaurants in uh A Universal that were like,
Speaker 4: you know, half a mile less than a half a
Speaker 4: mile from each other. I know, I know, I'm in
Speaker 4: the same property.
Speaker 2: So now I don't know what he's doing these days,
Speaker 2: but he definitely was at the center of a lot
Speaker 2: of this stuff and shouts out to you, Amoral, if
Speaker 2: you're out there somewhere today, shouts out, friend, make us
Speaker 2: some food. Sometime on the show, right now, let's do
Speaker 2: the Power Hour. They said he couldn't be done. Then
Speaker 2: they said, like greatest sex offender in the world this
Speaker 2: time for the Power Hour on the news. Chunky not me,
Speaker 2: someone else another person was wasn't me? Okay, it wasn't me.
Speaker 2: What makes shoot? Never mind? I'm not I forget it,
Speaker 2: forget it, forget it. Follow up on the store we
Speaker 2: talked about yesterday Jason Alexander from Seinfeld. He was in
Speaker 2: that sketch with Courtney Stadden when she was just seventeen
Speaker 2: years old. We played this sketch yesterday. Go back to
Speaker 2: the show from yesterday if you missed this. And Jason
Speaker 2: Alexander from Seinfeld. He plays George on Seinfeld. He's in
Speaker 2: this sketch with seventeen year old Courtney Staughten, who was
Speaker 2: famous in the news because she was sixteen when she
Speaker 2: married this actor. Yeah, and she was complaining. She was like,
Speaker 2: I cannot believe adults did this to me. Here's Jason
Speaker 2: Alexander rubbing and touching my breasts and then you know,
Speaker 2: talking about how we wanted me to turn eighteen so
Speaker 2: we could take me behind his desk or something. I
Speaker 2: thought to myself at least, I was like, how bad
Speaker 2: could it possibly be? It was pretty bad. It was
Speaker 2: like there was a lot of weird going on. Now,
Speaker 2: she still didn't have to do any of this stoff,
Speaker 2: but she was seventeen there with a growed ass husband
Speaker 2: that with celebrities from Hollywood rubbing on her boobs. We
Speaker 2: touched on this.
Speaker 4: A little bit yesterday when we were kind of approaching
Speaker 4: the story and I I don't know if I put
Speaker 4: it exactly like this, but as I was going to
Speaker 4: the bathroom, we went to break and I'm scrolling through
Speaker 4: my phone and Pisenberg had texted me and he was like,
Speaker 4: wait a second. She said she couldn't legally choose not
Speaker 4: to do it the year after she legally chose to
Speaker 4: marry a fifty one year old dude.
Speaker 2: Saying, how could you do one thing but then not?
Speaker 4: You can't you have no legal option to not participate
Speaker 4: in this sketch.
Speaker 2: I think that she could have rejected it, but she
Speaker 2: does have an argument that like, why was everybody letting
Speaker 2: me do this at seventeen?
Speaker 5: Yes, no, absolutely, both things can be true.
Speaker 2: I said yesterday on school Mic, because the show continues
Speaker 2: during the breaks over on YouTube dot com Slash and
Speaker 2: the news Junkie, and I was talking on there. I said,
Speaker 2: here's how I would handle this. The United States of
Speaker 2: America has to be better than all these other cultures
Speaker 2: and all these other countries out there. There is no
Speaker 2: way that we should have places where children can get
Speaker 2: married in the United States of America. It's not the
Speaker 2: eighteen nineties anymore. We're not trying to beat an early
Speaker 2: death by having kids at fifteen and getting married at
Speaker 2: you know, thirteen or fourteen or something.
Speaker 5: We're not doing those things.
Speaker 2: We want to be better than those Middle Eastern countries
Speaker 2: for Christ's sake. We want to be better than the
Speaker 2: countries where kids are getting married off at eleven and
Speaker 2: twelve years old.
Speaker 5: To Creepo's as.
Speaker 2: You gave their data, goat and yeah. And I think
Speaker 2: in the United States of America we should say eighteen
Speaker 2: you get married. Nobody under eighteen gets married. At eighteen
Speaker 2: you get married, and that's the way it works around here. Unfortunately,
Speaker 2: that's not the way it goes. Looking back, she's kind
Speaker 2: of she's kind of said, I feel like a victim
Speaker 2: in this, and I do think it was kind of
Speaker 2: screwy what was going on with her, But you know,
Speaker 2: she she certainly had a bit more agency than she
Speaker 2: was saying. However, she's responded. Courtney Stodden speaks out after
Speaker 2: Seinfeld the lum Jason Alexander apologize for filming an inappropriate
Speaker 2: sketch with her when she was a seventeen year old minor.
Speaker 2: I'm very taken aback that an adult was able to
Speaker 2: take accountability because I have I haven't heard a lot
Speaker 2: of adults take accountability. She said. When I first got
Speaker 2: word that he publicly apologized, I was grateful because I
Speaker 2: think it's the first step in change. At the same time,
Speaker 2: I think it would be even better if you put
Speaker 2: that into action. So I would urge Jason Alexander to
Speaker 2: support AB one two six seven. Let's look that up.
Speaker 2: What the hell's on?
Speaker 4: Without looking it up, I think it's her her cause
Speaker 4: for to end child marriage.
Speaker 2: Oh good, yeah, I mean, who, who the hell's not
Speaker 2: for that? Anybody not for that out there? I'll take
Speaker 2: I'll take that side of the argument. Please AB one
Speaker 2: two six seven. It's support what's happening in California, or
Speaker 2: even donate to unchained at last. Oh that's the ChIL Yeah,
Speaker 2: that's a child marriage bill. AB one two six seven
Speaker 2: is a bill that would effectively ban child marriage by
Speaker 2: making the legal minimum age to wed eighteen years old.
Speaker 2: It's really frightening that there's no minimum age for somebody
Speaker 2: to get married in California. Seelining while I'm blabbin, look
Speaker 2: up ages for states to get married in the United States,
Speaker 2: because I think there's some states where they're even it's
Speaker 2: lower it's lower than sixteen. Maybe it's fightening that no
Speaker 2: minimum age for somebody to get married in California exists.
Speaker 2: Courtney Studtin said, there are only two other states that
Speaker 2: allow this, Mississippi in New Mexico, and I think California
Speaker 2: allows us. Is shocking? Is that true? I thought a
Speaker 2: bunch of states allowed you to get married with paranal permission.
Speaker 2: Uh okay. I don't know if these are mentioning parental
Speaker 2: permission or not. But let's take a look states with
Speaker 2: an absolute minimum age of eighteen with no exceptions. That's
Speaker 2: at least seventeen Connecticut, Delaware, Massachusetts, Minnesota, New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania, Vermont, Michigan,
Speaker 2: Rhode Island, Washington, Virginia, New Hampshire, Maine, Oregon, Missouri, and Oklahoma.
Speaker 2: They have completely banned marriage under eighteen. No parental consent,
Speaker 2: no nothing, you have to be eighteen. That's in seventeen states.
Speaker 2: A handful of states, including California, which she's talking about, Mississippi,
Speaker 2: New Mexico, and Oklahoma, do not set a statutory minimum
Speaker 2: age for marriage. In these states, miners can theoretically marry
Speaker 2: at any age, typically requiring parental and judicial approval, So
Speaker 2: like a thirteen year old could get married if their
Speaker 2: parents allow it. Yes see, I just think that's old fashioned.
Speaker 2: I think that maybe you disagree, somebody, that is old fashion.
Speaker 2: I mean, you're right, you.
Speaker 4: Touched on like the idea that it used to happen
Speaker 4: earlier to you know, because you were dying sooner. Uh huh,
Speaker 4: you got out ahead of things. But it doesn't have
Speaker 4: to be that way anymore.
Speaker 2: Somebody says, there's no agent California, New Mexico, Michigan with
Speaker 2: parental permission. Yeah, that's what we're saying, right, Yeah, that's
Speaker 2: that's the exact point that we're making right now.
Speaker 4: In most states that still allow underage marriage, the absolute
Speaker 4: minimum age four is generally fifteen to seventeen years old.
Speaker 4: So like some of these states say, hey, you can
Speaker 4: get married under eighteen with judicial approval, with parental approval,
Speaker 4: but you still can't do it under fifteen or under
Speaker 4: you know, fifteen to seventeen years old.
Speaker 2: This is an easy take for me. It's just I
Speaker 2: think people should be eighteen to get married. I think
Speaker 2: that's it. I don't think that's some weird wilk thing.
Speaker 2: I think it's just obvious I think we should wait
Speaker 2: until you're an adult. I think you can't get a
Speaker 2: tattoo until you're eighteen. I don't even think you should
Speaker 2: be able to get one with parental approval, by the way,
Speaker 2: if you're inner eighteen, and the same should be true
Speaker 2: for getting married.
Speaker 4: Some states impose additional restrictions. California requires both parental consent
Speaker 4: and court approval, while Florida dictates that the older party
Speaker 4: cannot be more than two years older than the minor.
Speaker 4: So like in Florida, more similar to the Romeo and
Speaker 4: Juliet law, where it's like, Okay, you can get married
Speaker 4: at seventeen, but not if the person is twenty five.
Speaker 4: They have to be nineteen.
Speaker 2: You know, can you guys imagine, like, imagine right now
Speaker 2: that when you were sixteen years old the person that
Speaker 2: you were in a relationship with. Imagine that you married
Speaker 2: that person. Say that again. Imagine that you got married
Speaker 2: to the person that you were with when you were
Speaker 2: sixteen years old, and you were in a marriage with
Speaker 2: that person.
Speaker 5: You probably would have thought at the time, like.
Speaker 2: We are in love. We love each other so much.
Speaker 2: Our parents just don't understand. As the song goes, they
Speaker 2: don't understy. They don't know what real love is. We
Speaker 2: love each other so much. Imagine you married that person.
Speaker 2: That's the situation these people are getting into. That's just stupid.
Speaker 2: It's the thumb. It sounds pretty woke to me. This
Speaker 2: is just sensible. It's not woke at all. This is
Speaker 2: sensible to say you should be an adult to get married.
Speaker 5: You should be an adult to vote.
Speaker 2: Maybe even older, maybe even older, and you should be
Speaker 2: an adult to join the army.
Speaker 5: You should be an adult to get married. That's it.
Speaker 5: That's how it goes from me.
Speaker 2: Maybe you disagree, but that's a weird argument to make
Speaker 2: if I'm honest with you.
Speaker 4: So I think there are a couple of states, like
Speaker 4: when you deal with this marriage stuff and age, where
Speaker 4: if you're under twenty one you can legally drink if
Speaker 4: you're married to somebody over twenty one. Okay, it's the
Speaker 4: really the weirdest loophole.
Speaker 2: So you're let's say you're eighteen and you're married to
Speaker 2: somebody who's over twenty one, you can drink as a
Speaker 2: residence adult of that way.
Speaker 4: In the United States, they're in twelve specific states, provided
Speaker 4: you are in the present of or given the alcohol
Speaker 4: by your legal spouse, who must be twenty one or older.
Speaker 2: You can legally drink under the age of twenty one.
Speaker 4: That is in Alaska, Connecticut, Delaware, Louisiana, Maryland, Nevado, New Mexico, Ohio,
Speaker 4: South Dakota, Texas, Virginia, and Wisconsin.
Speaker 1: Damn.
Speaker 2: If you put an age limit on things, they only
Speaker 2: want to do it younger. That doesn't make any sense.
Speaker 2: If you put an age limit on things, nobody can
Speaker 2: do it younger. Now you're not talking about smoking cigarettes
Speaker 2: or something where somebody can get access to it.
Speaker 4: Yeah, if you're putting age parents marriage closet and steel
Speaker 4: from their marriage.
Speaker 2: I've tried. Okay, that means but I've tried. All right,
Speaker 2: quick break, when we come back, I have a pick
Speaker 2: a side for you today. This is an interesting one.
Speaker 2: I think this happens more commonly when people imagine. But
Speaker 2: it's pretty explosive. And that is coming up next on
Speaker 2: the news junkie. What am I doing, man, I'm working
Speaker 2: on the studio in between breaks. This is a bad idea.
Speaker 2: It's a recipe for this. Are a madman, But it worked.
Speaker 5: Yeah, it worked. This.
Speaker 2: I'll tell you all about it later. I want to
Speaker 2: bore everybody with what happened here, but some work going
Speaker 2: on in the studio during the break and it worked, right.
Speaker 2: No weird noises, totally DT, i'd right now. No buzzes, Yeah,
Speaker 2: that's right. Improvements, baby, No, don't do that. Don't get it,
Speaker 2: you know. I am. If I'm sitting in here and
Speaker 2: there's a buzz or a hum or, anything that's not
Speaker 2: supposed to be there in the studio, I'm like, I
Speaker 2: can't do it.
Speaker 5: I can't do it.
Speaker 2: I can't distract myself enough to forget about this, but
Speaker 2: I'm gonna have to because it's time and Steel, I
Speaker 2: don't know if you have the theme song for this,
Speaker 2: but it's apt to you. I didn't download it. Are
Speaker 2: you too busy playing with your DTI? I can downloaded today? Hopefully.
Speaker 5: All ready we're gonna do it a bigger side here
Speaker 5: we go, right.
Speaker 1: A doll?
Speaker 2: All right, choose a side. Who's right who's wrong? In
Speaker 2: this case, we have a woman who's upset. She has
Speaker 2: just spent some money in a restaurant in New York
Speaker 2: City and she's very very upset at learning something while
Speaker 2: she was there. The other side of this is the
Speaker 2: woman or the restaurant, you choose who's in the right
Speaker 2: who's in the wrong. Here is this lady. Let's listen
Speaker 2: into her situation.
Speaker 22: Say, and we got this pissan for twelve dollars.
Speaker 2: Okay, it's it's really loud in this New York City bakery,
Speaker 2: so I have to tell you some of this. So
Speaker 2: the woman he goes, I can't believe this. We got
Speaker 2: this croissan at this bakery for twelve dollars. Okay, that
Speaker 2: doesn't seem that bad. I mean, I would probably pay
Speaker 2: less than twelve dollars for a croissant at a bakery.
Speaker 2: But if you're in a bakery in New York and
Speaker 2: they're making fresh croissants, that seems okay. So she buys
Speaker 2: the croissant of debaby.
Speaker 18: Saved her price.
Speaker 2: Why did I turn around?
Speaker 3: Look at this This guy, the delivery guy just came in.
Speaker 2: Oh my god, was warmed.
Speaker 4: Croissants are like costco.
Speaker 2: And so she films the guy who comes in while
Speaker 2: she said she buys. She buys the croissant at this
Speaker 2: Leon de Patissaure in New York City, this Parisian bakery,
Speaker 2: and after she gets her croissant, the delivery guy shows
Speaker 2: up and he's got a big ass box of croissants
Speaker 2: from Costco. And she's like, I paid a bunch of
Speaker 2: money for this. And then I see that they're just
Speaker 2: getting these big boxes delivered from Costco and they're reselling
Speaker 2: Costo Go croissants at this place. And this is a
Speaker 2: ripof and this is criminal and this is unfair. And
Speaker 2: I have to tell you, a lot of this stuff
Speaker 2: to me makes me judge how young the person is
Speaker 2: or inexperience, because this is true with a lot of
Speaker 2: the food that you're buying.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, have you never heard of Cisco?
Speaker 2: Yeah, Cisco, Cheney Brothers, all these like all these companies
Speaker 2: are the providers for particular food outlets like this. So
Speaker 2: if you go to let's say your local your local
Speaker 2: like bar and grill restaurant, not a chain, but your
Speaker 2: local bar and grill restaurant or just local restaurant, those
Speaker 2: restaurants almost always.
Speaker 5: Are ordering from a menu of their own.
Speaker 2: That menu, let's say it's from Cisco, which is a
Speaker 2: very very big company, not the strong song guy Yuckers,
Speaker 2: this Cisco company that makes food, and and you you
Speaker 2: go to four, five, six, ten different restaurants in your neighborhood.
Speaker 2: But if they all order the same chicken tenders off
Speaker 2: of Cisco, you're getting the same chicken tenders in all
Speaker 2: those places.
Speaker 4: Like if you get calamari at a place that's a
Speaker 4: sports bar, I hope that you don't expect that it's
Speaker 4: like a fresh catch. It probably tastes like the next
Speaker 4: sports bar's calamari, and the sports bar after that it's calamari,
Speaker 4: because they're all coming from a few a food distributor.
Speaker 2: So there's only two twists in this twist. Number one
Speaker 2: is just Gay points this out on TJ chat. It
Speaker 2: is a bakery, though I think there is an implication
Speaker 2: at a bakery that I'm getting something fresh and something
Speaker 2: made in house.
Speaker 5: That's what I'm expecting.
Speaker 2: I'm not expecting a costco item while I'm ordering at
Speaker 2: your bakery. I want a croissant that you're making back there,
Speaker 2: And I think that's what people think they're getting to be. Yeah,
Speaker 2: but I would argue that.
Speaker 4: Does the menu of the bakery, does the website? Is
Speaker 4: there anything that specifically says that these things are made
Speaker 4: in house? Or is the bakery just called bakery like there,
Speaker 4: oh it's called the.
Speaker 2: Sure.
Speaker 4: But I don't know what does that mean the art
Speaker 4: of the potentiaty of the art of the pastry. That
Speaker 4: doesn't mean the artist done there, doesn't mean this place
Speaker 4: is full of artists.
Speaker 2: People are also pointing out the second thing that I
Speaker 2: was gonna say, which is definitely it's just Costco wholesale,
Speaker 2: so like, it's not it's not like they went to Costco,
Speaker 2: bought it and reached so sold. They're getting a Costco
Speaker 2: wholesale thing. Where we gonna say, see that, Well, it's.
Speaker 4: Hard because yeah, I get that you would probably feel
Speaker 4: duped if you just spent twelve to fifteen dollars on
Speaker 4: a croissant only to see them come in. You would
Speaker 4: hope that maybe these guys would figure something out where
Speaker 4: the deliveries come in the back La Parisian Bakery. It
Speaker 4: says bakery, But does that mean they have to be
Speaker 4: baking stuff.
Speaker 2: I mean it's a bakery right by time square yea,
Speaker 2: so whatever that means they.
Speaker 4: Could be heating things there, like for example, there are
Speaker 4: grocery stores that have bakeries. Not everything in the bakery
Speaker 4: is made from scratch. In the bakery, A lot of
Speaker 4: it isn't.
Speaker 2: Of course, Yeah, yeah, it bred all these things, but
Speaker 2: this is kind of how it goes. There's some stuff
Speaker 2: that's made in house at a restaurant. Any restaurant tour
Speaker 2: or like chef will tell you about this. I don't know.
Speaker 2: I just know this from other people saying it. There's
Speaker 2: some stuff that they make fresh in house and from scratch,
Speaker 2: as they'll call it. There's some places that are scratch
Speaker 2: kitchens where they're alleging that everything is made like that.
Speaker 2: But a lot of times there's stuff that they get
Speaker 2: to make their lives easier that it's already prepared or
Speaker 2: it's already ready to be prepared from there. So they
Speaker 2: get the croissants to make their own breakfast croissant sandwiches
Speaker 2: or something, right, but the croissants are not made in house. Bootsy,
Speaker 2: who knows about this stuff, says, this happens way more
Speaker 2: than people think.
Speaker 5: I think that's it. I think just especially young people
Speaker 5: are like, whoa.
Speaker 2: It's like the young person that freaked out when they
Speaker 2: they heard that, uh oh, what's the sandwich place? Yeah,
Speaker 2: when they heard Panera, they're like, this person works at
Speaker 2: Panara and all the soups are in bags and they
Speaker 2: put them in the microwave to heat them up, and
Speaker 2: you go, yeah, that's how this stuff works. I've told
Speaker 2: the story about my friend who ran on Applebee's and
Speaker 2: I expected to go back there and see all these
Speaker 2: chefs with their chef knives and you know, different cook tops,
Speaker 2: and I saw like six microwaves in a row, six
Speaker 2: microwaves in a row, all with little signs behind them
Speaker 2: on how to heat up each individual item and then
Speaker 2: how to present it for the customers at that Applebe's.
Speaker 2: And I'm like, oh, okay, this is sort of one
Speaker 2: of the secrets.
Speaker 5: But you know, is this a ripoff?
Speaker 2: Pick aside you aside with the lady who's angry she
Speaker 2: paid sixteen dollars for a croissant and then discovered it
Speaker 2: was a costco croissant, or with the the bakery, they
Speaker 2: can't possibly make all.
Speaker 5: Of this stuff. This is just how this stuff goes.
Speaker 5: What do you think?
Speaker 4: I think that unfortunately, it's just kind of one of
Speaker 4: those things that you you learn growing up. You know
Speaker 4: that there's things that you know as a child to
Speaker 4: be true that you later realize are not exactly true,
Speaker 4: and then there's things as a young adult that you're
Speaker 4: going to have to figure out aren't exactly you know,
Speaker 4: they're they're not making the croissants from scratch there.
Speaker 2: Now, if if their.
Speaker 4: Men you said housemaide from scratch anything like that, then
Speaker 4: you have an argument and maybe even a lawsuit. But
Speaker 4: I don't really think I would take her side on
Speaker 4: this one because rest.
Speaker 5: Real quick.
Speaker 2: You were literally just in New York City. Isn't everything
Speaker 2: by Times Square really expensive anyways? Yes, so like sixteen
Speaker 2: dollars for a croissant near Times Square.
Speaker 5: She's your expectation a little bit different.
Speaker 4: Now, if I go get a bagel in New York City,
Speaker 4: do I hope that it's made in house? Yeah, but
Speaker 4: if it's not, it's probably made somewhere else in New
Speaker 4: York that makes really good bagels. You know, Sorry about
Speaker 4: your croissant, lady, but I'm kind of on the restaurant's
Speaker 4: side here. Now the whole thing. I saw somebody recently
Speaker 4: posting about this. We mentioned Cisco, the food preveyor company SYSCO,
Speaker 4: and they are now I say, now, this happened back
Speaker 4: in November of twenty four. I think they have like
Speaker 4: a partnership with the Michelin Guide, And there's a whole
Speaker 4: handful of things that in the restaurant world that are
Speaker 4: controversial about the Michelin Guide, about their practices and how
Speaker 4: secretive they are, and it's really just up to them
Speaker 4: to do whatever they want. And there's no like governing body,
Speaker 4: because why would there be so this star or nose
Speaker 4: star given stars taking away stars. There were people that
Speaker 4: were like, we're supposed to trust you to rate the
Speaker 4: best restaurants, most expensive restaurants in the world, and you're
Speaker 4: partnering with Cisco to provide premium products to high end
Speaker 4: restaurants that have stars awarded to them. This is getting
Speaker 4: a little ridiculous. Guess what, those Cisco's got that money, right, Sure.
Speaker 2: Everybody's making money off this.
Speaker 4: If I found out that, like some three star restaurant
Speaker 4: was getting kind of subpar products, I would question why
Speaker 4: they have three stars but not a not a bakery
Speaker 4: in Times Square.
Speaker 2: Yeah, let us know what you think they'll pick aside.
Speaker 2: We got to take a break. We're well behind you
Speaker 2: when we come back. Final Dispatches stories that didn't make
