I feel like 0:01:37.280 --> 0:01:40.720 we're both a little hectic today. It is one of those. 0:01:40.680 --> 0:01:43.480 You had, like a kind of a busy morning. I was, 0:01:43.840 --> 0:01:46.320 I was running slightly behind, and then I had this 0:01:46.520 --> 0:01:51.400 really awkward, uh, get out to my driveway moment, because what. 0:01:51.400 --> 0:01:53.440 Do you mean, like like your wife said, get out 0:01:53.480 --> 0:01:56.440 of the house. Gone. No. 0:01:57.640 --> 0:02:01.640 Today in my neighborhood is yardway today, which is not 0:02:01.640 --> 0:02:04.120 not a day that I typically take part in. Like 0:02:04.160 --> 0:02:07.280 I don't have a lot of waste that I aside 0:02:07.280 --> 0:02:08.519 from my trash business. 0:02:08.919 --> 0:02:11.680 Down up perfect yard everybody. 0:02:11.560 --> 0:02:15.000 That's definitely not true. But we did some work over 0:02:15.040 --> 0:02:17.639 the weekend because we you know, we had some crazy 0:02:17.680 --> 0:02:21.680 weather last week that took out like some large tree branches, 0:02:21.720 --> 0:02:23.800 so I got to get a chainsaw on my hands, 0:02:23.880 --> 0:02:25.080 you know, like fun stuff. 0:02:25.360 --> 0:02:27.680 My god, I don't have this giant pile of crap 0:02:27.720 --> 0:02:29.919 at the end of my driveway, like I never have 0:02:30.040 --> 0:02:32.240 anything out there, and now I have a gigantic pile. 0:02:32.320 --> 0:02:34.839 And as I'm walking out to my car, they were 0:02:34.960 --> 0:02:39.080 backing it in to load it all, and I that pinned. 0:02:39.200 --> 0:02:41.160 I know it's their job, but now I have to 0:02:41.200 --> 0:02:44.760 actively sit there and watch them do my bidding. Did 0:02:44.800 --> 0:02:48.960 you trash trash? Did you say listen trash people, big 0:02:49.080 --> 0:02:51.600 radio star here on the way to kick off the 0:02:51.600 --> 0:02:54.760 news junkie radio show for a lovely day here, So 0:02:56.120 --> 0:03:00.120 maybe get out of my way, you absolute prs. This 0:03:00.160 --> 0:03:02.600 is the way he talks, not Me's me talk like 0:03:02.639 --> 0:03:05.520 that at all. I felt really bad that I had 0:03:06.000 --> 0:03:09.520 like the biggest pile on the block for them. Sorry, sorry, sorry, 0:03:09.600 --> 0:03:11.480 Maybe they thought it was impressive. Let's put our ears 0:03:11.520 --> 0:03:13.359 to the ground, our fingers on the pulse, let's see 0:03:13.360 --> 0:03:15.520 what's happening to this great, big, wide world of ours. 0:03:15.560 --> 0:03:19.160 And we go to a baseball game going viral, and 0:03:19.240 --> 0:03:23.480 I'm gonna tell you my alarm bells, folks are going 0:03:23.520 --> 0:03:25.480 off on this. My alarm bells are going off in 0:03:25.560 --> 0:03:29.880 a pretty significant way, just because I think, could someone 0:03:30.080 --> 0:03:33.840 be this dumb? However, I always remind myself, Yeah, it's 0:03:33.840 --> 0:03:35.920 twenty twenty six. There's a lot of dumb people we 0:03:36.000 --> 0:03:37.960 see on the internet every day. You see them, I 0:03:38.000 --> 0:03:42.040 see them. We know that they absolutely exist, so maybe 0:03:42.040 --> 0:03:45.520 this is indeed real. Here's what happened at the little 0:03:45.600 --> 0:03:52.000 league game. I'll explain. As the pitch comes in, I 0:03:52.040 --> 0:03:54.680 walk away from it all right. As you might have 0:03:54.800 --> 0:03:57.400 seen if you're watching over on YouTube dot com Slash 0:03:57.480 --> 0:04:00.840 the news junkie, the catcher for the this litle league game, 0:04:01.160 --> 0:04:06.040 took a shot right to the crotched. Yeah, yeah, right 0:04:06.440 --> 0:04:11.000 right into the crotch, and he doubles over. And some 0:04:11.080 --> 0:04:14.720 of you know exactly what I'm talking about. This is inerts. 0:04:15.160 --> 0:04:18.080 It's tough, and it takes a little while to recover 0:04:18.240 --> 0:04:22.240 from this. I've never taken a baseball, but uh, you know, 0:04:22.360 --> 0:04:25.000 I I you remember, like other times getting hit in 0:04:25.040 --> 0:04:29.800 the nuts, there's like usually just a pregnant pause right 0:04:29.839 --> 0:04:33.160 before the pain hits you. Then all of a sudden 0:04:33.160 --> 0:04:37.839 it just unloads. Yeah, and this guy, the umpire gets 0:04:37.880 --> 0:04:40.839 hit right in the crotch in this first shot that 0:04:40.880 --> 0:04:46.280 comes through. All right. It's a little bit later in 0:04:46.320 --> 0:04:53.359 the game again, right in the crotch, same game, same umpire, 0:04:54.120 --> 0:04:56.440 right there in the in the spot you don't want 0:04:56.480 --> 0:05:01.359 it to happen. We're watching a sterilization on YouTube. Is 0:05:01.400 --> 0:05:04.600 this little kid like, is this guy dating the pitcher's mother? 0:05:04.720 --> 0:05:07.920 The little kid who's pitching at the mound, He's like, yeah, yeah, 0:05:07.960 --> 0:05:10.599 you want to date my mom, Randy. Here's what's gonna happen. 0:05:11.200 --> 0:05:17.640 That's two. Now to the crotch, all right, doubled over hurting. 0:05:18.880 --> 0:05:21.239 This one really took him out, because the second shot 0:05:21.320 --> 0:05:24.039 to the jewels is gonna take a little while to 0:05:24.120 --> 0:05:29.640 recover from. But we're not done, folks. Now the ump 0:05:29.680 --> 0:05:33.359 even seems a little hesitant behind the plate. They settling 0:05:34.160 --> 0:05:37.359 and why not? Of course? Yeah, he's got his hands 0:05:37.360 --> 0:05:39.960 on his hips. I might have them somewhere else, maybe 0:05:40.000 --> 0:05:42.400 just a little more protectively placed. But here comes another 0:05:42.440 --> 0:05:50.159 pitch right to the crotch again. I've brought count. That's three. 0:05:53.560 --> 0:05:58.200 This time the ump doubles over and the parents have 0:05:58.279 --> 0:06:01.080 to uh to approach home play because this guy got 0:06:01.160 --> 0:06:05.160 hit three times. I don't know, I mean, is that possible? 0:06:05.960 --> 0:06:09.440 Three times you get hit in the in the crowd? 0:06:09.520 --> 0:06:09.640 Now? 0:06:09.720 --> 0:06:13.240 Does that mean his balls are out? I like, you 0:06:13.240 --> 0:06:14.840 mean not? You just have a cup on? Is that 0:06:14.839 --> 0:06:21.200 what you're suggesting? Oh, I'm in free strikes, like I 0:06:21.279 --> 0:06:24.799 don't know. I only know I'm never doing this job. 0:06:25.040 --> 0:06:29.280 I'm never ever taking this gig on I. They wear 0:06:29.320 --> 0:06:33.680 a cup, right, I would expect, unless I would have, 0:06:33.760 --> 0:06:37.360 I mean, after the second shot to the nuts, I 0:06:37.440 --> 0:06:41.040 think I would have like maybe kind of looked around 0:06:41.120 --> 0:06:43.000 and like, does anybody have a cup I can borrow? 0:06:43.279 --> 0:06:45.800 Which is not usually a thing you borrow from another man, 0:06:46.160 --> 0:06:49.200 but in this, in this case, it seems like he's 0:06:49.200 --> 0:06:50.320 got a target between his. 0:06:50.320 --> 0:06:54.880 Legs after the second shot. I would absolutely entertain even 0:06:55.000 --> 0:06:59.200 borrowing an athletic supporter from another person. At some point, 0:06:59.279 --> 0:07:02.159 you got to do something about this. Although it is funny, 0:07:02.400 --> 0:07:04.280 it brings me back to when you would play these 0:07:04.279 --> 0:07:08.200 sports in your youth, and there was something at that time, 0:07:08.720 --> 0:07:12.840 a really toxic thing actually, where young guys would be like, 0:07:13.080 --> 0:07:17.240 I'm not wearing a cup. That's lame, man, I'm not 0:07:17.280 --> 0:07:19.400 wearing a cup. And he'd be like, oh, you're well, 0:07:19.520 --> 0:07:22.559 hold on, you're too cool to wear a cup. Wearing 0:07:22.600 --> 0:07:24.960 a cup is cool? Was it because it was lame 0:07:25.040 --> 0:07:28.080 or because it was uncomfortable? Both? It was a combo 0:07:28.160 --> 0:07:30.640 with it. Both you're like, it's not stupid. 0:07:30.760 --> 0:07:32.680 I never found it to be that lame, but there 0:07:32.760 --> 0:07:37.440 was definitely like an adjustment period, and then there was 0:07:37.480 --> 0:07:39.840 a couple There was a couple of times in the 0:07:39.880 --> 0:07:43.040 getting used to wearing a cup adjustment period that I 0:07:43.040 --> 0:07:44.120 would be doing the karate. 0:07:44.120 --> 0:07:47.360 I mean, you'd be doing the sidekicks and then. 0:07:47.240 --> 0:07:49.120 The punch, and then all of a sudden, I feel 0:07:49.160 --> 0:07:52.680 my cup is has come loose of the jockstrap and 0:07:53.080 --> 0:07:55.160 is trying to make its way down my pant leg. 0:07:55.720 --> 0:07:59.040 It's dangerous. Like we're on I need to go somewhere, 0:07:59.400 --> 0:08:01.960 so we're not like I'm taking a lap and my 0:08:02.080 --> 0:08:04.920 cup just drops out of the leg. To our umpires 0:08:04.960 --> 0:08:07.680 and referees listening to the show today, we invite you 0:08:07.720 --> 0:08:10.720 in is this a common occurrence? Are you wearing a cup? 0:08:10.760 --> 0:08:14.800 What is the you know, what is the situation that 0:08:14.840 --> 0:08:18.440 you're facing If you're this guy, poor gentleman is going 0:08:18.560 --> 0:08:22.640 very viral today, but I don't envy him in that moment. 0:08:22.720 --> 0:08:24.400 Let us know what you think. Send a dispatch over 0:08:24.440 --> 0:08:27.160 at the Newsjunkie dot com or an email tips at 0:08:27.160 --> 0:08:30.560 the Neewsjunkie dot com. Right now, we find ourselves in 0:08:30.560 --> 0:08:35.280 a really interesting situation with this Mitch McConnell's story that 0:08:35.360 --> 0:08:37.000 I just I want to ask you a little twist 0:08:37.040 --> 0:08:40.079 on this folks today, you in particular, I want to 0:08:40.120 --> 0:08:43.760 ask you what you think about this, because Mitch McConnell 0:08:44.240 --> 0:08:48.280 has been mi IA for like a month in Washington, right, 0:08:48.720 --> 0:08:52.640 and he's totally off the grid. There's these emergency calls 0:08:52.640 --> 0:08:55.839 from his house. Mitch McConnell says, I'm fine, And at 0:08:55.840 --> 0:08:59.120 first he reaches out to somebody who was an employee 0:08:59.120 --> 0:09:01.520 over at CNN, to the on air talents at CNN, 0:09:01.960 --> 0:09:04.959 and he says they had a conversation, He's good to go. 0:09:05.559 --> 0:09:09.000 And then he talked to another elected official as well, 0:09:09.360 --> 0:09:12.120 John Thune. I think he talked too, but he didn't do. 0:09:12.160 --> 0:09:13.840 What I said was just like, hey, why don't you 0:09:13.880 --> 0:09:17.680 just call the TV station live and prove that you're 0:09:18.000 --> 0:09:20.319 breathing right now, that you're alive. It's been a month, 0:09:20.360 --> 0:09:22.400 there's like all this speculation that you're dying. And then, 0:09:22.440 --> 0:09:26.640 like we mentioned yesterday, CNN further clarified that that was 0:09:26.679 --> 0:09:29.080 in fact just a story that their guy told and 0:09:29.160 --> 0:09:33.680 not official CNN reporting. They wouldn't even stand by that. Yeah, Yeah, 0:09:33.720 --> 0:09:37.120 what a piece of s move that they didn't like 0:09:37.320 --> 0:09:39.880 their own reporting, I guess on the topic. But then 0:09:40.040 --> 0:09:42.880 I see this is the Washington Post today and it 0:09:42.920 --> 0:09:46.880 says Mitch McConnell took a photo with that day's newspaper. 0:09:47.280 --> 0:09:50.440 The internet has questions and it shows the proof of 0:09:50.559 --> 0:09:53.640 life photo from Mitch McConnell and his wife in the 0:09:53.679 --> 0:09:57.200 hospital and he's got like sort of casually laid over 0:09:57.280 --> 0:10:02.400 his leg the newspaper from that morning, and it's sort 0:10:02.440 --> 0:10:04.559 of a proof of life thing. And the question I 0:10:04.640 --> 0:10:08.559 started to ask myself is is there any one hundred 0:10:08.559 --> 0:10:12.679 percent legitimate way to prove that you are real and 0:10:12.920 --> 0:10:18.240 live and alive in twenty twenty six? Is there any way, 0:10:18.360 --> 0:10:20.760 like if there was somebody, let's say, there was something 0:10:20.800 --> 0:10:26.920 crazy somebody who was in the past reported dead, Elvis Presley, 0:10:27.000 --> 0:10:29.480 if you will, and Elvis Presley pops up and goes, 0:10:29.640 --> 0:10:34.079 folks a lot about my death and he says, I've 0:10:34.120 --> 0:10:37.319 been alive the whole time. How in twenty twenty six, 0:10:37.640 --> 0:10:42.040 is there a way you can undeniably prove that you 0:10:42.120 --> 0:10:46.040 are alive in breathing in that moment Because the newspaper 0:10:46.080 --> 0:10:47.839 didn't cut it, he put out the newspaper picture and 0:10:47.840 --> 0:10:50.199 people were like, no, uh huh. See Anon, a mouse 0:10:50.240 --> 0:10:52.680 on TJ Chat says you could totally make that pick 0:10:52.720 --> 0:10:55.920 with AI, and that's what they said. That's what these 0:10:55.960 --> 0:10:58.440 people ended up saying, It says. On Monday night, The 0:10:58.440 --> 0:11:00.560 Post review to copy of the original foot provided by 0:11:00.600 --> 0:11:02.880 Mitch McConnell's office at the Post request and found that 0:11:02.880 --> 0:11:06.000 its metadata appears the show it was taken. Sunday, an 0:11:06.040 --> 0:11:09.000 independent digital forends it's expert says, there appear to be 0:11:09.040 --> 0:11:12.120 no evidence that the image is fake. It doesn't matter. 0:11:12.720 --> 0:11:15.040 It doesn't matter because people saw it and they go, 0:11:15.480 --> 0:11:18.400 did they think this shows that Mitch McConnell is alive 0:11:18.480 --> 0:11:21.600 right now? No, they thought, I can't believe things that 0:11:21.640 --> 0:11:26.280 my I see anymore. AI could easily recreate that photograph. 0:11:26.880 --> 0:11:30.560 AI could easily say and Washington Post put the paper 0:11:30.640 --> 0:11:32.920 in my hand, and that doesn't prove you're really alive. 0:11:33.120 --> 0:11:35.880 And it's actually getting easier by the minute for AI 0:11:35.920 --> 0:11:38.160 to recreate it because so many people are loading it 0:11:38.200 --> 0:11:42.080 into AI and having Mitch McConnell hop out of the 0:11:42.120 --> 0:11:45.720 bed and do jumping jacks or or any number of 0:11:45.760 --> 0:11:49.240 break dancing moves. Just some shoot really great, Oh come 0:11:49.280 --> 0:11:53.920 on when don't show that, but do show this? Hang on, 0:11:54.200 --> 0:11:56.439 this is what Sealan's talking about. Here's an example. 0:11:57.720 --> 0:12:04.079 Time to get back in shape. Okay, for those of 0:12:04.120 --> 0:12:08.240 you listening along, Mitch McConnell. In this video, the photo 0:12:08.360 --> 0:12:10.480 comes to life. He gets right out of the chair 0:12:10.480 --> 0:12:13.439 in the hospital. He's got a six pack. He picks 0:12:13.520 --> 0:12:18.720 up some dumbbells and starts lifting and there you go. 0:12:19.360 --> 0:12:22.600 But Bootsy says over on Twitch, I think it's a 0:12:22.640 --> 0:12:25.560 real photo. People are still very split on whether they 0:12:25.559 --> 0:12:27.520 believe it or not. So I ask you this question 0:12:27.559 --> 0:12:30.960 today on the show. Is there a way you can absolutely, 0:12:31.160 --> 0:12:35.880 without doubt, prove that you're alive in twenty twenty six, 0:12:36.360 --> 0:12:38.560 something that people wouldn't react to and say, Nope, that's 0:12:38.600 --> 0:12:41.520 a photograph, it's fake. Well, but he's got the newspaper 0:12:41.520 --> 0:12:45.040 from today. It doesn't matter. AI could put the newspaper 0:12:45.040 --> 0:12:47.839 from today in my hands to prove that I'm alive. Well, 0:12:47.840 --> 0:12:49.680 what if I start a stream? If I'm in the 0:12:49.720 --> 0:12:51.600 studio and I start a stream and I say the date, 0:12:52.200 --> 0:12:56.320 does that really prove that I'm alive in that moment? 0:12:57.280 --> 0:13:00.240 I Mean, the only thing I can think of is 0:13:00.320 --> 0:13:03.280 if I was to start a broadcast at a live 0:13:03.400 --> 0:13:06.560 baseball game, and you could see that the live baseball 0:13:06.600 --> 0:13:09.280 game was also going onto the background, and you could 0:13:09.320 --> 0:13:11.880 confirm by watching the broadcast of the live baseball game 0:13:12.080 --> 0:13:15.640 and me and my live broadcast to see the people 0:13:15.679 --> 0:13:19.000 on band. Dude, you could still fake that. How do 0:13:19.080 --> 0:13:23.640 you prove that you're absolutely alive in twenty six I 0:13:23.679 --> 0:13:24.120 think you. 0:13:24.080 --> 0:13:28.320 Know it's hard to prove to the broader audience. But 0:13:28.400 --> 0:13:31.319 if I just needed to prove to you the mission 0:13:31.400 --> 0:13:33.920 McConnell was alive, I could just bring him into your 0:13:33.920 --> 0:13:35.960 studio and have him smack you in the face. 0:13:36.679 --> 0:13:39.200 I'm still gonna be well, yeah, that I would believe that. 0:13:39.320 --> 0:13:42.160 I would believe he came in my studio and slap 0:13:42.200 --> 0:13:43.760 me in the face. I'd be like, that's Mitch McConnell. 0:13:44.200 --> 0:13:46.080 The technology is not good enough that he could be 0:13:46.120 --> 0:13:50.080 a robot and pass off as a human. Right yet? 0:13:50.600 --> 0:13:54.319 Mind you yet see already people on YouTube. Jego says, 0:13:54.480 --> 0:13:56.640 Sean is not real? I am, though, but how do 0:13:56.760 --> 0:13:59.880 I prove it? Right now? How do here? My phone 0:14:00.080 --> 0:14:02.679 says the date and the day and the time. But 0:14:02.720 --> 0:14:04.280 does that good? 0:14:04.760 --> 0:14:09.040 You could do something in real time? It would it 0:14:09.080 --> 0:14:12.440 would have to be something really drastic, like that couple 0:14:12.480 --> 0:14:15.360 that climbed up the Empire State Building right there. It's 0:14:15.440 --> 0:14:19.120 like seven TV channels, there was helicopters, there was everything 0:14:19.920 --> 0:14:21.560 pointed cameras at these people. 0:14:22.000 --> 0:14:25.520 They were no doubt alive. That was sure. But that's 0:14:25.520 --> 0:14:27.960 so much effort. I can't do that. I can't pull 0:14:27.960 --> 0:14:29.280 it off. Like a couple that. I don't say you 0:14:29.320 --> 0:14:32.360 can climb anything. I can't. I just can't pull it 0:14:32.400 --> 0:14:35.080 off if if I have to do something that elaborate. 0:14:35.160 --> 0:14:39.000 But here's another example. Media Ie has this headline Nobody's 0:14:39.080 --> 0:14:43.680 buying this, TMZ joins critics casting doubt on the Mitch 0:14:43.760 --> 0:14:50.440 McConnell photo. So TMZ wants clicks. Yeah, I don't know 0:14:50.480 --> 0:14:53.520 that I would see them as respectable in this at all. 0:14:54.080 --> 0:14:56.480 But I will absolutely tell you, like, this is an 0:14:56.480 --> 0:14:58.800 outlet coming out and they're going nobody's buying this, nobody 0:14:58.840 --> 0:15:01.080 thinks this is real. So I said, well, he put 0:15:01.080 --> 0:15:02.880 a photo out there. I said that he should just 0:15:02.960 --> 0:15:06.120 call into Fox News because we would identify his voice 0:15:06.440 --> 0:15:08.480 and we would see him having a real interaction with 0:15:08.520 --> 0:15:11.080 the anchor or hear it at least, and maybe that 0:15:11.080 --> 0:15:12.840 would prove. But that's what I want to ask you today. 0:15:12.840 --> 0:15:16.760 How do you do it? What's the absolutely rock solid 0:15:16.840 --> 0:15:19.600 way to prove with all the AI out there that 0:15:19.640 --> 0:15:21.880 you're alive in twenty twenty six. Let us know what 0:15:21.920 --> 0:15:26.480 you think. Over on thenewsjunkie dot com a couple of 0:15:26.560 --> 0:15:30.720 emails to get us started here today, Eric emails the show. 0:15:31.200 --> 0:15:35.520 He says, good afternoon, junkies, Hello, Eric, how are you Sean? 0:15:35.560 --> 0:15:37.600 I got to say, when it comes to team politics, 0:15:37.640 --> 0:15:41.960 you are one hundred percent right. Somebody wanted somebody once said, 0:15:42.000 --> 0:15:44.720 if you want fair elections, get rid of the R 0:15:44.800 --> 0:15:46.920 and D next of people's names on the ballot and 0:15:46.960 --> 0:15:49.760 people will know the individual. And I couldn't agree more. 0:15:50.240 --> 0:15:53.280 Team politics is the problem with your solution of paying 0:15:53.320 --> 0:15:56.160 through the nose for senators and congressman. They're already paid 0:15:56.240 --> 0:15:58.080 much better than the national average, so it's a good 0:15:58.080 --> 0:16:00.120 paying job. And can you name me a senator that 0:16:00.160 --> 0:16:02.520 doesn't come out as a millionaire no matter how much 0:16:02.560 --> 0:16:05.000 money they had going in. Well, a lot of the 0:16:05.040 --> 0:16:08.040 people who become rich through politics become rich through politics 0:16:08.080 --> 0:16:11.840 because they stay around for decades and decades and decades 0:16:11.880 --> 0:16:14.560 and on and on. They go so that kind of 0:16:14.600 --> 0:16:16.920 goes to my point. But the problem is the team 0:16:16.960 --> 0:16:20.520 sports that choose the next candidate. It's nearly impossible to 0:16:20.520 --> 0:16:23.120 be an upstart out of nowhere and get anywhere in 0:16:23.200 --> 0:16:26.960 American politics because of all the campaign finance issues. You 0:16:27.080 --> 0:16:29.560 have to choose a side anyhow, That's my take. Have 0:16:29.560 --> 0:16:33.720 a great day, says Eric. Thank you. Eric. Lindsey emails 0:16:33.760 --> 0:16:37.280 the show. Hey, guys, listening to Monday's podcast, and you 0:16:37.720 --> 0:16:40.960 guys were talking about how Lindsey Graham died and all 0:16:41.000 --> 0:16:45.600 the conspiracies around Aron in Russia maybe being responsible for this. 0:16:46.160 --> 0:16:49.080 Well everybody was saying that made my mind go the 0:16:49.120 --> 0:16:51.920 other way. I think, and hear me out on this. 0:16:52.240 --> 0:16:55.720 I think that it was Israel, says the emailer who 0:16:55.760 --> 0:16:58.680 took out Lindsey Graham. Now keep in mind the doctors 0:16:58.720 --> 0:17:00.880 say he had some sort of heart issue and that's 0:17:00.920 --> 0:17:03.800 what they claim took them out. I just think the 0:17:03.840 --> 0:17:07.399 health of these senator is a strange coincidence, very very 0:17:07.400 --> 0:17:09.879 close in time. Who knows what's going on here. The 0:17:09.920 --> 0:17:11.440 one thing they want is to have the US long 0:17:11.520 --> 0:17:14.439 term involved in this Iran conflict. The best way to 0:17:14.480 --> 0:17:16.760 do that is to pull it. Trump's heart strings. You 0:17:16.880 --> 0:17:18.359 kill his friend and make it look like it was 0:17:18.359 --> 0:17:21.359 the Iranians that did it. That'll keep them engaged. Love 0:17:21.440 --> 0:17:26.000 the show, says Andre, Thank you Andre, And finally talking 0:17:26.000 --> 0:17:28.600 about Key Wes, Jeremy says, there are two Key West 0:17:28.640 --> 0:17:33.200 experiences walking around kind of sucks. However, it's a ten 0:17:33.240 --> 0:17:37.040 out of ten on a scooter. Choose that experience. Deep 0:17:37.080 --> 0:17:39.480 fried key lime Pie, by the way, is way better 0:17:39.520 --> 0:17:43.159 than actual key Lime Pie. I enjoyed hanging out with 0:17:43.240 --> 0:17:47.280 the polydactyl six toad cats at the Hemingway House. You 0:17:47.320 --> 0:17:49.520 could just hang out there like you own the joint. 0:17:49.640 --> 0:17:52.560 Keep up the work, JJ, thank you for the email 0:17:52.760 --> 0:17:54.879 that opens the door for you to join us on 0:17:54.920 --> 0:17:58.720 the show today.

Get the emails, the dispatches, 0:18:03.560 --> 0:18:05.800 and so much more. Fired Up, We got a couple 0:18:05.800 --> 0:18:08.600 of pick asides for you. We got a lot of 0:18:08.720 --> 0:18:11.359 big news to get into over the course of the show. 0:18:11.840 --> 0:18:16.240 Freddie is back. He really enthralled the United States by 0:18:16.320 --> 0:18:18.960 being enthralled by the United States as he was touring 0:18:19.000 --> 0:18:22.120 the country and just so excited about everything here in America. 0:18:22.840 --> 0:18:26.359 Then he got canceled. The stuck him. They tried to 0:18:26.400 --> 0:18:28.040 get rid of him. They tried to say, look what 0:18:28.119 --> 0:18:33.040 Freddie said. It's controversial, and they're whining about this online, 0:18:33.080 --> 0:18:35.639 and I said, screw this. This guy seems like a 0:18:35.720 --> 0:18:38.120 nice dude. But he's back. We'll tell you what's happening 0:18:38.119 --> 0:18:41.120 with him now. And the theory I have about Freddie, 0:18:41.160 --> 0:18:44.600 the viral World Cup guy that's coming up next on 0:18:44.720 --> 0:19:03.000 the news Chunky, I know some of you are still 0:19:03.000 --> 0:19:06.360 not won over by the World Cup people. I think 0:19:06.400 --> 0:19:08.600 people getting to know more about the world and the 0:19:08.640 --> 0:19:10.800 world getting to know more about the United States of 0:19:10.800 --> 0:19:17.399 America is a good thing. Why Because we're good, you know, 0:19:17.480 --> 0:19:21.359 we're good people. We're doing a good job. We're not perfect. 0:19:21.400 --> 0:19:25.600 Nobody's perfect, no culture is perfect, but we're trying and 0:19:25.640 --> 0:19:27.800 we're doing a good job I think in the United 0:19:27.840 --> 0:19:30.879 States of America. So the world seeing that could be 0:19:30.920 --> 0:19:33.760 a very positive thing. They don't always see that reflected 0:19:34.320 --> 0:19:36.680 in the media that they take in, and it's been 0:19:37.000 --> 0:19:39.800 really cool to see some people react to that, like 0:19:39.840 --> 0:19:44.639 that guy Freddie from x dot Com, slash Twitter, whatever 0:19:44.680 --> 0:19:47.280 you'd like to call it. These days and Freddie, if 0:19:47.280 --> 0:19:51.240 you didn't catch on, was this German guy and nobody 0:19:51.320 --> 0:19:53.480 knew what he looked like or anything. But he was 0:19:53.520 --> 0:19:56.560 touring the United States and posting about his experience, and 0:19:56.880 --> 0:20:00.600 he was so won over by America. Not big cities 0:20:00.640 --> 0:20:04.320 in Times Square, but like small town America, going through 0:20:04.440 --> 0:20:07.000 these smaller towns, meeting the people that he said were 0:20:07.040 --> 0:20:10.440 so friendly, having the food that they are all bowled 0:20:10.560 --> 0:20:14.120 over by all these World Cup people bowled over by 0:20:14.680 --> 0:20:17.679 and spending their money in the United States of America 0:20:17.920 --> 0:20:21.000 until Freddie got canceled. And you know, now Freddie's back 0:20:21.400 --> 0:20:24.679 quote unquote, yeah, yeah, yeah. Well we'll get into that 0:20:24.680 --> 0:20:26.520 whole drama a second, but just so you guys know, 0:20:26.760 --> 0:20:29.399 people like this Freddie guy who's gone very viral and 0:20:29.440 --> 0:20:31.560 all these other tourists that come over to the United States, 0:20:31.800 --> 0:20:35.440 they're spending a lot of money, a lot of money 0:20:35.480 --> 0:20:38.720 in our country. Here's an example of this. Let me see, 0:20:38.720 --> 0:20:40.160 I hope I could play this. He let's stay by 0:20:40.160 --> 0:20:43.600 the dump button just in case the Calshey people went 0:20:43.640 --> 0:20:46.439 around and asked the tourists how much money did you 0:20:46.560 --> 0:20:50.600 spend for your World Cup vacation in the United States? 0:20:50.840 --> 0:20:54.080 It was way more than I thought. You have any 0:20:54.080 --> 0:20:57.280 guesses on your side sea land, but there were one 0:20:57.320 --> 0:21:00.960 big vacation. They're big long vacation.

What do you 0:23:18.200 --> 0:23:19.720 do for a living? I have two companies? 0:23:19.760 --> 0:23:22.240 He also has a companies, A big company to have. 0:23:22.320 --> 0:23:24.000 Two hundred k? What do you do for a living? 0:23:24.000 --> 0:23:27.919 My family owns son, I got a farm ninety thousand dollars? 0:23:27.920 --> 0:23:30.120 So what do you do for a living? Cryptal client stage? 0:23:33.880 --> 0:23:35.800 I don't know what it is, but they make a 0:23:35.840 --> 0:23:36.399 lot of money. 0:23:36.440 --> 0:23:36.840 What do you do? 0:23:36.920 --> 0:23:40.959 Clip the concert? Are you kidding me? Folks? Are they 0:23:40.960 --> 0:23:43.840 getting ripped off? Like? There's no place in America that 0:23:43.880 --> 0:23:47.600 I couldn't go for like under five thousand dollars? All right, 0:23:47.640 --> 0:23:49.880 Like for a week I could go to almost everything. 0:23:50.240 --> 0:23:53.199 One guy, he's not staying at airbnbs. He wants the 0:23:53.240 --> 0:23:57.400 fancy hotels, the four seasons. The w's even the four 0:23:57.560 --> 0:24:03.160 season in let let's let's take all right, let's go 0:24:03.400 --> 0:24:07.280 the four seasons. Is our four seasons in New York City. 0:24:07.280 --> 0:24:11.040 That's got to be right. Sure, let's take four seasons 0:24:11.119 --> 0:24:15.320 Hotel New York City a night? Are we maybe two 0:24:15.400 --> 0:24:17.600 thousand dollars a night? Where he can't be talking more 0:24:17.640 --> 0:24:18.480 than that, can't we? 0:24:18.760 --> 0:24:21.960 Yeah, well, I'm looking at this one here, this one there, 0:24:22.080 --> 0:24:25.280 this one says it's averaging nineteen hundred to night right now. 0:24:25.359 --> 0:24:28.520 Oh okay, that is expensive and they are staying for 0:24:28.560 --> 0:24:31.359 a long time. MFQ on YouTube says, this sounds like 0:24:31.400 --> 0:24:34.080 too much. Well, hell yeah, it does. Of course, it 0:24:34.160 --> 0:24:36.879 sounds like too much. Even the guy who's like twenty 0:24:36.920 --> 0:24:42.000 five thirty thousand dollars, that's so much money, my god. 0:24:42.320 --> 0:24:44.280 So there they are. They're spending a lot of cash 0:24:44.280 --> 0:24:46.480 over here. And this guy, Freddy came over from Germany 0:24:46.480 --> 0:24:50.200 and he was just amazed at how things were in 0:24:50.400 --> 0:24:55.639 small town Georgia, going through Alabama into Mississippi. He was 0:24:55.680 --> 0:24:58.800 having a blast. And then people on the internet that 0:24:58.800 --> 0:25:03.400 are super political losers again, rig yourself of the most 0:25:03.400 --> 0:25:06.440 annoying people on the planet. By just ignoring the super 0:25:06.480 --> 0:25:10.040 political people, you'll feel a whole lot better afterwards, I 0:25:10.080 --> 0:25:15.040 guarantee it. Freddie comes to the United States, chronicles his 0:25:15.080 --> 0:25:17.840 whole plan, and these losers start combing through all of 0:25:17.880 --> 0:25:20.840 his posts. They find a post that they find to 0:25:20.840 --> 0:25:24.640 be controversial. It wasn't controversial at all. It was something 0:25:24.760 --> 0:25:29.040 like being judging somebody on the basis of the color 0:25:29.040 --> 0:25:33.439 of their skin is discriminatory by nature. So discriminating somebody 0:25:33.480 --> 0:25:35.680 who's white based on the color of their white skin 0:25:35.760 --> 0:25:38.919 is also discriminatory by nature. Something like that. That was 0:25:39.040 --> 0:25:41.600 the essence of the post, which is just plainly true, 0:25:41.640 --> 0:25:44.639 and everybody with the brain knows it. But people tried 0:25:44.680 --> 0:25:47.040 to do the cancel thing forgetting its twenty twenty six 0:25:47.119 --> 0:25:49.760 and we're kind of over some of that. But Freddie 0:25:50.320 --> 0:25:53.240 is back. He shut down all his accounts. Now he's back, 0:25:53.280 --> 0:25:57.120 and I have a theory. Freddie says, hello again. We're 0:25:57.119 --> 0:26:00.800 currently in Clemson, South Carolina. I've just to come back 0:26:00.840 --> 0:26:03.159 here to document the final part of our road trip. 0:26:03.560 --> 0:26:06.280 The mean reason, the main reason I deactivated my account 0:26:06.280 --> 0:26:09.240 two weeks ago is that things became increasingly toxic for 0:26:09.359 --> 0:26:12.919 some people. It's unfortunately unfathomable that a good story can 0:26:12.960 --> 0:26:15.960 exist without some kind of hidden agenda behind it. There 0:26:16.000 --> 0:26:18.320 was even a Reddit group going through my entire account 0:26:18.320 --> 0:26:21.679 trying to find anything they could to reveal my identity. 0:26:22.040 --> 0:26:26.960 Typical Reddit behavior, You Reddit folks, not all of you, 0:26:27.160 --> 0:26:29.480 not all of you, but you know who I'm talking about. 0:26:29.520 --> 0:26:32.040 Some of you over there, They go, Oh, is somebody 0:26:32.080 --> 0:26:34.760 having a good time here? Let's fire up the good 0:26:34.760 --> 0:26:38.040 time siren and put a stop to this right now, please, 0:26:38.320 --> 0:26:41.840 For God's sake, I decided to continue, Freddy says because 0:26:41.840 --> 0:26:45.199 I realized the overwhelming majority of people loved following along. 0:26:45.680 --> 0:26:48.240 A small group of very loud people shouldn't be able 0:26:48.280 --> 0:26:55.040 to ruin something that brought so many others joy pause, clap, Yes, yes, 0:26:56.200 --> 0:26:59.840 a small group of people should not be able to 0:27:00.160 --> 0:27:04.399 ruin everybody else's time. Oh my god, just take that 0:27:04.480 --> 0:27:07.080 in for a second, like this is this can explain 0:27:07.160 --> 0:27:10.200 so many things that happen in our society right now. Yeah, 0:27:10.359 --> 0:27:13.640 a small group of very loud people shouldn't be able 0:27:13.640 --> 0:27:15.720 to ruin something that brought so many others Joyce. So 0:27:15.760 --> 0:27:17.840 he's back. But I also want to clear something up 0:27:17.840 --> 0:27:20.160 as people who follow me on Instagram already know I've 0:27:20.160 --> 0:27:21.960 been to the United States before. This is not my 0:27:22.040 --> 0:27:24.159 first visit, and I never claimed that it was. The 0:27:24.200 --> 0:27:25.879 last time I was here was in twenty twenty two, 0:27:25.880 --> 0:27:28.240 when I visited New York and Philadelphia. A lot of 0:27:28.280 --> 0:27:31.080 people shared my raising canes posts from November twenty twenty 0:27:31.119 --> 0:27:33.359 five to make it look like I was secretly an American. 0:27:33.800 --> 0:27:35.800 That post wasn't from the United States. It was from 0:27:35.840 --> 0:27:38.520 my trip to Saudi Arabia. So they're trying to raising 0:27:38.600 --> 0:27:41.320 canes in Saudi Arabia. I guess I didn't know that 0:27:41.440 --> 0:27:45.520 until right now. They said, let me tell you, Ohio 0:27:45.640 --> 0:27:49.040 and Alabama are very different from New York City or 0:27:49.119 --> 0:27:53.600 Los Angeles. True, Freddy, if you have any questions, feel 0:27:53.640 --> 0:27:55.639 free to ask. Thanks for reading, and he's back in 0:27:55.680 --> 0:27:58.480 the United States for the last bit of the World Cup. 0:27:58.840 --> 0:28:02.840 My theory, I don't know if this is true. I 0:28:02.880 --> 0:28:07.879 think Freddye of World Cup tweeting fame might have a 0:28:07.920 --> 0:28:10.800 camera crew with him. He has not revealed his face 0:28:10.800 --> 0:28:13.199 in any of these photographs. Yet He's been treated like 0:28:13.280 --> 0:28:16.639 a king. He's been offered flights to make it to 0:28:16.720 --> 0:28:20.639 games by every major corporation possible. He got to tour 0:28:21.280 --> 0:28:24.880 the spacecraft that just went around the Moon. He got 0:28:24.880 --> 0:28:27.199 to get inside it. They gave him a phone and 0:28:27.240 --> 0:28:31.560 he got to FaceTime that astronauts on the space station live. 0:28:32.359 --> 0:28:36.760 The guy has been VIP but anonymous at the same time. 0:28:37.520 --> 0:28:40.560 I think somebody might be filming him for a documentary. 0:28:40.760 --> 0:28:44.240 That's my guess. I think he's back and I think 0:28:44.280 --> 0:28:47.360 he might have cameras with him this time. That's what 0:28:47.440 --> 0:28:49.840 my guess is as to what's happening here. But Freddy's 0:28:49.880 --> 0:28:53.400 bad to him with him before. I don't know because 0:28:53.400 --> 0:28:56.400 he has never showed his face. He has never showed 0:28:56.440 --> 0:28:57.720 his face in this mix. 0:28:57.760 --> 0:28:57.800 It. 0:28:58.000 --> 0:29:00.000 Even in the clip where he was facetiming the astronaut, 0:29:00.200 --> 0:29:01.040 we didn't see his face. 0:29:01.400 --> 0:29:04.959 No, no, they like they framed everything around that and 0:29:05.040 --> 0:29:08.680 did not reveal where he was boots. He agrees Freddy's 0:29:08.680 --> 0:29:11.440 in audi he's filming a documentary. I think that's what's 0:29:11.440 --> 0:29:14.320 happening here. I think he's like, let me really strike 0:29:14.360 --> 0:29:16.440 while the iron is hot, and let me do a 0:29:16.480 --> 0:29:22.400 documentary about loving America, getting to discover the real America, 0:29:22.440 --> 0:29:26.320 getting to discover small town America, and people will eat 0:29:26.360 --> 0:29:28.920 that up. I think that's my guest. That's what I 0:29:28.960 --> 0:29:30.360 think is going on here. But you can tell us 0:29:30.400 --> 0:29:34.840 what you think. Send a dispatch over at thenewsjunkie dot com, by. 0:29:34.760 --> 0:29:38.880 The way to kind of recap one of the things 0:29:38.880 --> 0:29:41.200 we were talking about just a second ago. Yeah, I'm 0:29:41.240 --> 0:29:43.200 looking at the rates at the Four Seasons Hotel in 0:29:43.240 --> 0:29:47.040 New York. Yeah, and Saturday night and Sunday night. I 0:29:47.040 --> 0:29:50.480 think maybe possibly World Cup related. They are completely sold out. 0:29:50.560 --> 0:29:52.520 But if I wanted to just stay there, if I 0:29:52.520 --> 0:29:56.400 wanted to stay there Friday night, there are two sweets available. 0:29:56.800 --> 0:29:59.400 How much are the sweets? They're more than two thousand dollars. 0:29:59.400 --> 0:30:02.560 One of them is one of the junior suites Sweet. 0:30:02.800 --> 0:30:04.760 The Sweet rate is forty nine to ninety five for 0:30:04.800 --> 0:30:07.520 the night, or two hundred extra dollars if I want 0:30:07.880 --> 0:30:11.440 breakfast in bed. I've got to pay for breakfast in 0:30:11.560 --> 0:30:13.760 bed after paying five grand for the night. 0:30:14.560 --> 0:30:18.640 They want two hundred extra dollars for room service for 0:30:18.760 --> 0:30:23.400 the Now here's the other suite. Now, tell me, tell 0:30:23.440 --> 0:30:25.160 me what you think. Right, this is the not so 0:30:25.360 --> 0:30:28.880 junior Sweet ceiling right, this is the Taie Warner Penthouse. 0:30:29.360 --> 0:30:32.440 All right, it's forty three hundred square feet. It is 0:30:32.560 --> 0:30:36.640 on the fifty second floor, which means three hundred and 0:30:36.640 --> 0:30:40.160 sixty degree view of the city uptown, downtown, Midtown.

It would be, 0:31:12.560 --> 0:31:14.680 but I don't think I'd put it past them. 0:31:14.760 --> 0:31:17.960 I would if I would leave so many one star 0:31:18.040 --> 0:31:21.320 reviews on every website that I could find, and then 0:31:21.360 --> 0:31:24.160 I would make a new website that reviews stuff just 0:31:24.200 --> 0:31:25.720 to give them more one star reviews. 0:31:26.400 --> 0:31:30.040 Big thanks, by the way, I see gifted subscriptions coming 0:31:30.080 --> 0:31:32.680 in to the newsjunkie dot com and the app from 0:31:32.720 --> 0:31:38.120 Bradwallace Reeltor with fourteen gifted subscriptions.

I did not expect that 0:32:11.480 --> 0:32:14.719 we would get this update, but we have it for you. 0:32:14.720 --> 0:32:17.640 We also have an announcement in the Power Hour coming 0:32:17.680 --> 0:32:20.680 up later on today, an announcement about the show that's 0:32:20.680 --> 0:32:22.680 coming up in a bit and a whole lot more, 0:32:23.000 --> 0:32:41.560 and Saul coming up next on the News Junkie. I 0:32:41.560 --> 0:32:43.840 have a question for you. It's an update on a 0:32:43.880 --> 0:32:47.040 story we talked about and I wasn't expecting to see 0:32:47.040 --> 0:32:51.000 this today, but I'm interested in your take on this. Seelan. 0:32:51.080 --> 0:32:54.680 If you're on a flight when you're sitting usually said, 0:32:54.720 --> 0:32:59.480 I would imagine next to your wife, right, I would imagine, yeah, 0:33:00.080 --> 0:33:02.400 sit next to each other, unless there's some bizarre reason 0:33:03.120 --> 0:33:05.840 why you should be separated from one another on this flight. 0:33:06.040 --> 0:33:08.680 I don't know if we've ever been separated on a flight. 0:33:09.200 --> 0:33:13.040 Uh yeah, we usually booked together once in a while. 0:33:13.680 --> 0:33:16.520 If there has been times where we've gotten a whole 0:33:16.600 --> 0:33:20.280 row and we've left like the middle seat empty, yeah, yeah, 0:33:20.320 --> 0:33:22.440 because either she'll put up her legs or she just 0:33:22.440 --> 0:33:23.920 wants the space for stuff. 0:33:24.440 --> 0:33:27.880 Does she have a lockdown on one seat or another? 0:33:29.320 --> 0:33:32.400 From my experience, courtey is going to sit on the 0:33:32.440 --> 0:33:35.160 aisle seat. I am No matter what I'm I'm not 0:33:35.200 --> 0:33:38.520 gonna get the aisle seat. I'm I'm probably not gonna 0:33:38.520 --> 0:33:40.800 get the window seat either. She's one hundred percent not 0:33:40.840 --> 0:33:42.360 sitting in the middle, So I have to sit in 0:33:42.360 --> 0:33:44.280 the middle. I have to sit in the middle. Every 0:33:44.280 --> 0:33:46.760 single time, she'll go, I want to send in the aisle. 0:33:46.800 --> 0:33:49.280 What if I have to use the restroom and it's convenient. 0:33:51.520 --> 0:33:53.560 You don't want to interact with the flight attendant anyway. 0:33:53.760 --> 0:33:55.560 She'll she'll make it sound like it's something I want, 0:33:55.560 --> 0:33:58.160 But she always wants to sit on one seat or 0:33:58.160 --> 0:33:58.480 the other. 0:33:58.600 --> 0:34:01.640 I think she usually like actually usually defers to me 0:34:02.080 --> 0:34:06.560 if the aisle seat is available, mostly because I'm more 0:34:06.640 --> 0:34:08.520 likely to get up and go to the bathroom. I 0:34:08.560 --> 0:34:10.880 have the longer legs, you know, if I need to 0:34:10.880 --> 0:34:14.520 stretch or something, it's just a little bit easier me. 0:34:14.800 --> 0:34:18.279 Climbing over people, especially if they're strangers involved, is not 0:34:18.360 --> 0:34:20.160 a pleasant experience for anybody. 0:34:20.560 --> 0:34:22.480 So I just kind of it. 0:34:22.680 --> 0:34:26.360 It's like I kind of have default shotgun in a 0:34:26.360 --> 0:34:29.359 lot of cars. Like nobody just nobody will even talk 0:34:29.360 --> 0:34:31.040 about it. They're just like, you go up, you're up front, 0:34:31.080 --> 0:34:31.360 You're the. 0:34:31.400 --> 0:34:35.279 Up I mean, let's be real here, and when I 0:34:35.360 --> 0:34:38.160 say that, you are a man who needs some leg room, 0:34:38.360 --> 0:34:40.360 I mean. Seiland's a very tall guy. For those you 0:34:40.440 --> 0:34:43.080 knew to the show, Yeah, Sea lands six foot five 0:34:43.239 --> 0:34:46.040 or something. He's like a six foot four. He's massively tall. 0:34:46.080 --> 0:34:48.919 Guys four inches taller than me, but no one would 0:34:48.920 --> 0:34:51.480 ever notice. People generally think after meeting the both of us, 0:34:51.840 --> 0:34:54.680 I thought Sean was taller. I thought he was a 0:34:54.760 --> 0:34:57.239 more intimidating force to reckon with. 0:34:57.320 --> 0:34:59.120 Actually, now most of the people who have met us 0:34:59.120 --> 0:35:02.080 are going only four. I could have sorn it with five. 0:35:02.920 --> 0:35:04.440 He seems like a five inch taller. 0:35:04.600 --> 0:35:07.399 I'm not five to eleven. I ever ready six foot. 0:35:07.480 --> 0:35:10.360 So the story that we talked about was this Ryanair 0:35:10.480 --> 0:35:12.880 flight to get to the point here. And on this 0:35:13.000 --> 0:35:18.360 Ryanair flight, this guy, the Serbian dude was cruising along 0:35:18.600 --> 0:35:20.279 just like you are. Most times, you got that little 0:35:20.280 --> 0:35:23.120 window slide up and then as you know, and I know, 0:35:23.320 --> 0:35:27.440 there's the outside window glass and then the inside window glass. 0:35:28.120 --> 0:35:31.120 And on this flight, both of them broke right through. 0:35:31.520 --> 0:35:35.000 Both of them blasted right through at like thirty five 0:35:35.080 --> 0:35:39.319 thousand feet or whatever. And what it sounds like, do 0:35:39.400 --> 0:35:43.200 you have you heard it? To check your surprise. It's 0:35:43.239 --> 0:35:45.919 a t story as long as it flies. 0:35:47.200 --> 0:35:50.319 Wilde and as you find a guess, we're back on 0:35:50.360 --> 0:35:50.960 a plane. 0:35:51.239 --> 0:35:53.120 I thought we were gonna get some content instead of 0:35:53.200 --> 0:35:54.600 the thing that makes fun of me for talking about 0:35:54.640 --> 0:35:57.000 plane stories all the time. I thought we were gonna 0:35:57.000 --> 0:35:59.359 get some actual content of the guy getting sucked out 0:35:59.400 --> 0:36:01.719 of the plane. Then I thought, is he going to 0:36:01.840 --> 0:36:04.440 use the text to speech feature that we've been talking about. 0:36:04.520 --> 0:36:08.160 He's gonna do it as the Italian mobster getting pulled 0:36:08.200 --> 0:36:11.239 out of the plane or the sexy lady boys. I 0:36:12.400 --> 0:36:14.680 thought all the things were gonna happen except for say, 0:36:14.760 --> 0:36:17.600 for that, but this was a Ryanair flight. The guy 0:36:18.000 --> 0:36:21.680 his window blasts out and he gets sucked through all 0:36:21.719 --> 0:36:24.360 the way up to like the center point of his body. 0:36:25.120 --> 0:36:30.319 And his wife starts speaking with him, which you know, 0:36:30.400 --> 0:36:34.520 seems difficult to begin with, boom, because I am imagining 0:36:34.560 --> 0:36:39.120 to hear me, he's like stuck in the plane window. 0:36:39.160 --> 0:36:42.600 The plane windows around his mid section and his head's outside. 0:36:43.360 --> 0:36:46.000 And she says afterwards, here was a quote from this story. 0:36:46.200 --> 0:36:48.840 If we die, we died together, she said, which is 0:36:48.880 --> 0:36:53.120 so sweet sounding. Wife of ryanair passenger almost sucked through 0:36:53.160 --> 0:36:56.480 windows speaks, this is Milana. This is the guy that 0:36:56.520 --> 0:37:00.680 we talked about yesterday, yeah, or the other when the 0:37:00.680 --> 0:37:04.399 story broke originally. Now his wife is speaking out. She says, 0:37:04.440 --> 0:37:07.319 she grabbed her husband's legs while he was outside up 0:37:07.320 --> 0:37:10.759 to his chest for two minutes. Two minutes, yeah, two 0:37:10.760 --> 0:37:12.880 minutes time he was out there, like think about the 0:37:12.880 --> 0:37:16.600 plane at cruising altitude, the windows blast out and you're 0:37:16.640 --> 0:37:19.560 stuck at your waist for two minutes. A woman who 0:37:19.560 --> 0:37:22.080 saved her husband from being completely sucked out of a 0:37:22.080 --> 0:37:24.919 plane said, she thought, as she held undo his legs, 0:37:25.000 --> 0:37:27.760 if we die, we died together. Half of his body 0:37:27.800 --> 0:37:30.120 was sticking out of the plane. I immediately reacted and 0:37:30.160 --> 0:37:33.040 grabbed his legs. He was outside up to his chest 0:37:33.080 --> 0:37:35.440 for about two minutes. She said, with the help of 0:37:35.440 --> 0:37:37.600 two passengers, she was able to pull her husband, who 0:37:37.600 --> 0:37:41.680 had lost consciousness three times, back inside the aircraft. She 0:37:41.760 --> 0:37:44.000 said many people had fled their seats to other parts 0:37:44.000 --> 0:37:48.160 of the plane for safety as the cabin decompressed. The 0:37:48.200 --> 0:37:50.640 couple were on the flight operated by Ryan Ayir when 0:37:50.680 --> 0:37:54.720 this all occurred. The passengers have told the local media 0:37:55.120 --> 0:37:59.080 that he had kept his seatbelt on and those on 0:37:59.200 --> 0:38:01.800 board I kept hold of him while his upper torso 0:38:02.400 --> 0:38:06.279 was in the plane's slipstream outside. He's still in the 0:38:06.320 --> 0:38:09.279 hospital seriously injured. But his wife said, I was telling 0:38:09.360 --> 0:38:11.560 him I loved him and I was going to try 0:38:12.040 --> 0:38:14.520 to do our best. If we die, we died together. 0:38:14.760 --> 0:38:16.520 Now here's one thing I want to just throw out there. 0:38:16.520 --> 0:38:19.759 I'm not trying to be a jerk about this, but 0:38:19.800 --> 0:38:22.759 there's no way he heard any of this. So afterwards 0:38:22.760 --> 0:38:25.239 she could have totally made up everything. She said, I 0:38:25.280 --> 0:38:27.880 see what you're saying. Afterwards she could be like, oh, honey, 0:38:27.880 --> 0:38:31.360 I was saying, please please, if we die, we died together. 0:38:31.960 --> 0:38:34.239 And during the moment she could have been like I 0:38:34.239 --> 0:38:37.680 don't know, just push him out like nobody knows what 0:38:37.719 --> 0:38:39.880 the hell really happened, and they'll never know. He couldn't 0:38:39.920 --> 0:38:43.919 hear anything. Imagine being out there in the air. 0:38:44.160 --> 0:38:48.239 He lost consciousness three times and right now I think 0:38:48.440 --> 0:38:51.080 they said he still can't communicate or something like. He's 0:38:51.719 --> 0:38:55.880 a hospital in Greece. Damn, it's in that what you 0:38:55.960 --> 0:38:56.719 just scrolled through? 0:38:56.800 --> 0:38:58.120 Oh was that? Okay? I was just going back to 0:38:58.160 --> 0:39:02.040 the window shot here because that's so crazy. The decompression 0:39:02.080 --> 0:39:06.120 was extreme. I must have passed it there. Yeah, it's 0:39:06.120 --> 0:39:09.160 important to me that he's alive. Yeah, Okay, the sixty 0:39:09.200 --> 0:39:10.600 one year old is still in the hospital in Grease, 0:39:10.640 --> 0:39:13.200 remained seriously injured and in shock. It's important to me 0:39:13.239 --> 0:39:15.880 that he's alive. She said. His hand is particularly badly injured, 0:39:15.880 --> 0:39:18.680 and he's got burns. He's not able to communicate. He 0:39:18.719 --> 0:39:22.520 doesn't remember the whole event. Wow. Some people came to 0:39:22.600 --> 0:39:24.560 my aid. I remember one man, one woman. That man 0:39:24.640 --> 0:39:26.920 helped me a lot, and I think he was an 0:39:26.920 --> 0:39:29.440 Albanian man. Thank you very much. I don't remember his name. 0:39:29.480 --> 0:39:30.719 I don't even know if he told me. I would 0:39:30.719 --> 0:39:33.640 like to meet him and thank him personally. Again. She said, Now, 0:39:33.680 --> 0:39:37.200 the thing that comes to mind is you and your wife, Ashley, 0:39:37.719 --> 0:39:41.240 are on one of these flights, window gets busted out 0:39:41.280 --> 0:39:44.520 like this, She's being sucked out of the plane. Do 0:39:44.680 --> 0:39:48.080 you risk your life to try to pull her back in? Yes? 0:39:48.239 --> 0:39:52.080 Or do you say, like, well, you know, Jackson's gonna 0:39:52.120 --> 0:39:55.040 need one parent to get us through this. We can't 0:39:55.040 --> 0:39:57.279 have both parents getting sucked out of the window of 0:39:57.280 --> 0:40:00.839 the plane. He's only his little kid, A little kid, right, 0:40:00.840 --> 0:40:03.200 I was two years old, all right, on the way 0:40:03.239 --> 0:40:05.719 to three. But he's got to have one part. You 0:40:05.760 --> 0:40:11.480 would still try to pull her back into the plane, Okay, Courtney, 0:40:11.520 --> 0:40:13.120 wouldn't try to pull me back into the plane. I'm 0:40:13.120 --> 0:40:15.520 not getting sucked out of the plane. We talked about this. 0:40:15.920 --> 0:40:17.560 If you were getting sucked out of the plane, would 0:40:17.600 --> 0:40:19.719 your wife grab you and try to pull you back 0:40:19.719 --> 0:40:22.799 into the plane? To you, I would hope. So you're 0:40:22.880 --> 0:40:25.040 less confident about that, though, I think she would. 0:40:25.040 --> 0:40:28.279 I mean, you know, it would be very difficult, but uh, 0:40:28.360 --> 0:40:31.520 I think I would like to think, you know till 0:40:31.600 --> 0:40:32.399 death do est part. 0:40:34.160 --> 0:40:36.440 I'll ask Courtney during the break. But here's my guess. 0:40:36.719 --> 0:40:39.839 My guess is Courtney would say I would not try 0:40:39.880 --> 0:40:41.759 to grab you and, like, you know, pull you back 0:40:41.760 --> 0:40:44.919 into the plane, because I would be too freaked out, 0:40:45.080 --> 0:40:46.480 and it would be better I would it would be 0:40:46.480 --> 0:40:48.440 better for somebody else to do it. I wouldn't be 0:40:48.480 --> 0:40:50.880 good at helping you do that. This is what she 0:40:50.960 --> 0:40:53.279 said in the past. Like one time we were walking 0:40:53.320 --> 0:40:56.200 along I told you this story, and lightning struck right 0:40:56.280 --> 0:40:59.400 next to us. She threw ladies leash and wholed ass 0:40:59.400 --> 0:41:01.480 away from me, lady and just left us. I had 0:41:01.480 --> 0:41:03.839 to get the leash off the ground. And one time 0:41:03.880 --> 0:41:06.040 a giant snake went after us when we were in 0:41:06.080 --> 0:41:08.640 the park, she threw ladies leash and ran away from 0:41:08.640 --> 0:41:12.480 both of us. I know what to expect in these scenarios. Yeah, 0:41:12.520 --> 0:41:15.239 she's gonna throw the dog's leash and she's going to 0:41:15.320 --> 0:41:18.399 leave me behind. I'm she'll just go Like you look 0:41:18.520 --> 0:41:20.759 like you were firmly stuck in the window, and I 0:41:20.800 --> 0:41:24.160 didn't think that I should risk my life to help 0:41:24.360 --> 0:41:27.319 rescue yours. So I ask those of you who are 0:41:27.320 --> 0:41:30.960 in relationships, if you were with your partner and they 0:41:31.000 --> 0:41:33.840 got they're stuck halfway out the window on the plane, 0:41:33.960 --> 0:41:38.000 are you going to actively try to pull them back? 0:41:38.320 --> 0:41:41.319 Into the plane, or you're gonna be like, well, we 0:41:41.360 --> 0:41:45.720 can't risk both of us being injured or god forbid killed. 0:41:47.120 --> 0:41:47.680 You can't have that. 0:41:47.680 --> 0:41:49.840 I don't think, mar I don't think I would be 0:41:49.960 --> 0:41:52.879 risking both of us. No, I'm not going to fit 0:41:52.960 --> 0:41:53.640 through the window. 0:41:54.120 --> 0:41:57.719 I know, but you could still be injured, maybe even 0:41:57.800 --> 0:42:01.440 fatally just your head popping through it. I'm pretty sure 0:42:01.560 --> 0:42:04.280 that I'm gonna be injured at some point. Your wife's 0:42:04.320 --> 0:42:06.400 not very big. She would fit right through the window, 0:42:06.440 --> 0:42:09.480 all right, right out. So you're holding onto her. Let's 0:42:09.480 --> 0:42:12.080 say you're holding onto her, she slips because you don't 0:42:12.120 --> 0:42:14.160 you're not strong enough to hold onto her. But why 0:42:14.160 --> 0:42:16.279 would I not be strong enough hold onto her? Your wife, 0:42:19.520 --> 0:42:22.239 she gets sucked out of the plane and flies down 0:42:22.400 --> 0:42:25.840 to Earth, and then your head pops through there. There's 0:42:25.880 --> 0:42:29.399 a huge risk that you're gravely injured or possibly even killed, 0:42:29.480 --> 0:42:32.839 flies down to Earth when she buzz Lightyear. Well, she's 0:42:33.000 --> 0:42:34.479 you might as well do it fun if you're gonna 0:42:34.520 --> 0:42:37.439 do it. Let's let's be real. If if you get 0:42:37.560 --> 0:42:39.520 yoked out of the window of a plane and you 0:42:39.560 --> 0:42:41.840 don't hold your hands out like Superman. 0:42:42.120 --> 0:42:44.640 What are you even doing like you're gonna have the 0:42:44.719 --> 0:42:46.799 forethought getting yoked out of the window of a plane 0:42:46.840 --> 0:42:48.360 to hold your hands out like Superman. 0:42:48.640 --> 0:42:51.959 The only thing that I would remember would be, oh, damn, 0:42:52.000 --> 0:42:56.080 I'm going to die. I would need a clean pants, 0:42:57.880 --> 0:42:59.680 and then I would go. If Sea Lane was here 0:42:59.719 --> 0:43:02.040 right now, he'd just be playing that back on a 0:43:02.040 --> 0:43:04.040 Plane song. Those were the things that would go through 0:43:04.040 --> 0:43:08.240 my head. Yeah, now, those would be the things that Yeah, 0:43:08.440 --> 0:43:10.400 it would roll through my head in that very moment. 0:43:10.480 --> 0:43:12.560 But let us know what you wish I was back 0:43:12.600 --> 0:43:14.799 on a plane? Would be your last thought? What if 0:43:14.800 --> 0:43:18.560 it was not your wife and just some stranger that 0:43:18.600 --> 0:43:24.000 you were sitting next to. I would probably help. I 0:43:24.000 --> 0:43:27.800 don't think you wouldn't people would if it was a stranger. 0:43:27.800 --> 0:43:30.319 It depends on if they were nice to me previously. 0:43:30.440 --> 0:43:33.520 I judge based in the moment. I judge based on 0:43:33.560 --> 0:43:35.879 the very very moment that I'm in. If they were 0:43:35.960 --> 0:43:37.399 rude to me on the plane and they were stuck 0:43:37.440 --> 0:43:40.000 on the winter and be like, suit your right there, 0:43:40.040 --> 0:43:43.879 you can go jerk deal with it. If they were 0:43:44.000 --> 0:43:46.120 really sweet to me and they were like, oh my god, 0:43:46.120 --> 0:43:48.600 are you the news junkie, big fan of the show, well, 0:43:48.600 --> 0:43:50.480 I need to keep all those people alive, so I'm 0:43:50.480 --> 0:43:52.680 going to you know, I'm going to help them out, 0:43:52.680 --> 0:43:55.200 but let us know what you would do in that circumstance. 0:43:55.200 --> 0:43:57.600 There's your update on the guy who got sucked out 0:43:57.840 --> 0:44:00.759 of the plane window and the Ryanair flight.

We'll hopefully 0:44:05.239 --> 0:44:07.200 get into that. I got a couple of them actually 0:44:07.239 --> 0:44:10.080 for you today. A couple of big updates and stories 0:44:10.120 --> 0:44:13.200 we've been following as well, some of the baseball world 0:44:13.200 --> 0:44:15.839 that people hated, and so much more. It's coming up 0:44:15.840 --> 0:44:34.640 next on the News, Chunkie. We'll get to your dispatches, 0:44:34.680 --> 0:44:37.840 your emails, and all the rest here in just a moment. 0:44:38.080 --> 0:44:40.680 But it's time to get a little fiery, all right. 0:44:40.760 --> 0:44:43.560 I think this one is going to bring it out 0:44:44.200 --> 0:44:47.439 of some of you, and I'm ready for this, all right. 0:44:48.239 --> 0:44:49.960 And I want to see what Chili has to say. 0:44:50.120 --> 0:44:51.520 I want to see what all of you and Chad 0:44:51.560 --> 0:44:52.920 have to say. I want to see what you have 0:44:53.000 --> 0:44:55.800 to say about this. Listening to the show right now, 0:44:56.040 --> 0:44:58.440 I want to see what everybody has to say about this. 0:44:58.440 --> 0:45:02.120 This is potentially the most explosive pick Aside, So far 0:45:02.200 --> 0:45:04.440 seland are you ready for this? I'm ready? All right? 0:45:04.480 --> 0:45:08.200 It all starts right here with this this porta potty. No, no, no, 0:45:08.200 --> 0:45:12.880 people rejected that song. I hate to say, somebody at 0:45:12.960 --> 0:45:15.000 chats that. I hope, I hope pick Aside got a 0:45:15.000 --> 0:45:16.440 better song? Do you have it over there? We can 0:45:16.480 --> 0:45:20.640 still play. I'll make a better one, but uh for now. Okay, 0:45:20.640 --> 0:45:25.280 at least at least your thoughts and takes won't beating 0:45:25.920 --> 0:45:31.440 when we tell you you'll take aside. That's your old school. 0:45:31.480 --> 0:45:34.160 I like that. It all starts right here, Sea Lan, 0:45:34.239 --> 0:45:37.520 in this porta potty. This is where our entire debate 0:45:37.640 --> 0:45:40.759 is going to begin. A woman is filming. I'm going 0:45:40.800 --> 0:45:42.680 to let this run a little bit before we get 0:45:42.719 --> 0:45:46.399 into the actual back and forth of who is right 0:45:46.480 --> 0:45:51.799 and who is wrong. Here we go, she's filming him 0:45:51.960 --> 0:45:52.399 this guy. 0:45:52.640 --> 0:45:53.280 Are you serious? 0:45:53.360 --> 0:45:53.680 Right now? 0:45:53.800 --> 0:45:54.799 If he leaves the porta party? 0:45:54.800 --> 0:45:55.640 Are you serious? 0:45:56.280 --> 0:46:01.279 This is our house and it's under construction. Say let's 0:46:01.400 --> 0:46:01.759 use it. 0:46:02.360 --> 0:46:05.480 Let's use it. 0:46:06.680 --> 0:46:08.120 Our house is under construction. 0:46:09.239 --> 0:46:11.480 That's not your porta potty for you to just use. 0:46:15.000 --> 0:46:17.759 Okay, I pause this right here. Now, there's a lot 0:46:17.760 --> 0:46:19.560 more to this and it gets a lot juice here, 0:46:19.640 --> 0:46:21.759 but I want you guys to pick a side. Now. 0:46:21.800 --> 0:46:24.479 This is all about the porta potty itself. This woman 0:46:24.520 --> 0:46:26.839 has decided to film this guy just as he came 0:46:26.880 --> 0:46:29.520 out of the porta potty, and she's confronting him, and 0:46:29.560 --> 0:46:31.880 then also thought she was right enough to post this 0:46:31.960 --> 0:46:35.560 on social media because she posted this online as well. 0:46:36.040 --> 0:46:38.560 The whole thing comes out of this. If you're out 0:46:38.560 --> 0:46:40.520 in public. This guy looks to be an Amazon driver, 0:46:40.680 --> 0:46:44.360 right I think he got Yeah, it looks like the 0:46:44.440 --> 0:46:47.640 usual get up the red color. And he's saying it 0:46:47.640 --> 0:46:50.839 doesn't speak English, but he's an Amazon driver. He has 0:46:50.880 --> 0:46:52.799 to go to the bathroom really bad while he's out 0:46:52.840 --> 0:46:55.480 on his ride, and he sees a porta potty and 0:46:55.520 --> 0:46:57.920 he goes and uses the porta potty. She goes, is 0:46:57.960 --> 0:47:04.560 he using our portaty? That's our porta potty? And he goes, well, 0:47:04.600 --> 0:47:06.719 I didn't know, you know, I just he viewed the 0:47:06.719 --> 0:47:09.840 porta potty as sort of like a public bathroom. And 0:47:09.920 --> 0:47:12.280 I ask you this question. If you were walking around 0:47:12.280 --> 0:47:14.799 your neighborhood right now and it struck you that you 0:47:14.920 --> 0:47:18.520 really had to go to the bathroom, would you use 0:47:18.719 --> 0:47:23.760 a porta potty on a construction site. I not only would, 0:47:23.760 --> 0:47:28.920 but I have same sea lan, same same one hundred percent. 0:47:29.440 --> 0:47:33.320 And I thought I was gonna get in like real 0:47:33.360 --> 0:47:36.400 trouble for it because I was told that I couldn't 0:47:36.440 --> 0:47:38.160 use it by actual police officers. 0:47:38.200 --> 0:47:39.960 But I had to go. I had like it. 0:47:40.160 --> 0:47:44.440 This was this was emergency kind of situation here, you 0:47:44.520 --> 0:47:45.040 had to go. 0:47:45.640 --> 0:47:48.560 Young Columbian says he's an Amazon driver. I've been there, 0:47:48.600 --> 0:47:53.120 but there are bathrooms that aren't always available. Okay, but 0:47:53.640 --> 0:47:56.320 this is this is a porta potty on in somebody's 0:47:56.320 --> 0:47:59.319 front yard. She's arguing, like, this is basically our bathroom, 0:47:59.520 --> 0:48:01.480 and he's He's like, this is a porta potty. We 0:48:01.520 --> 0:48:04.000 generally just kind of treat porta potties like they're kind 0:48:04.040 --> 0:48:07.239 of a public bathroom that anybody can use. So who's right, 0:48:07.280 --> 0:48:09.840 Let's go back to it now. He's trying to speak 0:48:09.840 --> 0:48:12.600 with her, but he doesn't speak English, so he's typing 0:48:12.600 --> 0:48:15.680 into his phone what he wants to say to this 0:48:15.719 --> 0:48:17.000 woman because he's very confused. 0:48:19.440 --> 0:48:22.880 This is our house, This is not your porta potty. 0:48:23.520 --> 0:48:28.000 Why would you just use that it's on our property? 0:48:28.800 --> 0:48:30.680 He doesn't know what she's saying. He has no clue. 0:48:33.760 --> 0:48:38.319 She's just filming him and sure that like, hey, how 0:48:38.400 --> 0:48:39.000 rude is this? 0:48:42.560 --> 0:48:43.640 I don't even know how to do that. 0:48:44.480 --> 0:48:47.399 So now the Amazon guy is he's a decent dude. 0:48:47.400 --> 0:48:49.480 He seems like a nice guy. He's trying to speak 0:48:49.480 --> 0:48:51.040 with her. So he's using the app where you could 0:48:51.080 --> 0:48:53.200 talk to somebody in a different language back and forth, 0:48:53.480 --> 0:48:54.560 and when he gives it to her, she's like, I 0:48:54.600 --> 0:48:57.680 don't I don't even know how to do this. It's 0:48:57.719 --> 0:48:59.200 actually kind of a genius move. 0:48:59.239 --> 0:49:02.480 If he's actually speak English, like he does speak English, 0:49:02.560 --> 0:49:05.640 he could just be like, uh, letting her like like 0:49:05.760 --> 0:49:08.839 kind of kind of playing a waiting game with her 0:49:09.320 --> 0:49:11.759 to see if you know, if she just kind of 0:49:11.760 --> 0:49:13.920 gets frustrated and gives up because she doesn't know how 0:49:13.960 --> 0:49:15.360 to use the translate app. 0:49:15.440 --> 0:49:19.800 Maybe that that is a good way out. But somebody says, legally, illegally, 0:49:19.880 --> 0:49:22.880 he's in the wrong. That's what Heroin Bob says, and 0:49:23.000 --> 0:49:25.560 what Heroin Bob wouldn't be wrong about this. But now 0:49:25.600 --> 0:49:30.080 she's trying to explain to the translator app, this. 0:49:29.920 --> 0:49:33.080 Is our house that's under construction. We rent that bard 0:49:33.080 --> 0:49:36.560 a potty he just came on our property and went 0:49:36.600 --> 0:49:39.240 in our bathroom. 0:49:39.719 --> 0:49:47.759 He's looking at the translation, obviously, I think so he's 0:49:47.840 --> 0:49:50.160 he now said panto price. He's like, I'll pay you. 0:49:50.360 --> 0:49:53.520 I'll pay you. I had to use the bathroom. I'll 0:49:53.560 --> 0:49:56.360 give you some money for doing it. He does not 0:49:56.640 --> 0:50:00.920 understand what she's really upset about. He is not understanding 0:50:00.920 --> 0:50:03.120 what the hell she's upset about here, because she's like, 0:50:03.160 --> 0:50:05.840 you essentially used our bathroom. And he's like, oh, is 0:50:05.880 --> 0:50:07.400 it about money? Do you want some money? 0:50:07.640 --> 0:50:09.200 No, No, I don't want anything from you. 0:50:09.239 --> 0:50:15.120 Don't do that. I had to go. He said. 0:50:17.640 --> 0:50:18.239 That's like me. 0:50:18.280 --> 0:50:21.560 Going to your house and using your bathroom. It's our 0:50:21.560 --> 0:50:25.120 house is under construction, and we personally are using that bathroom. 0:50:25.640 --> 0:50:31.320 You just came to our house and went in our bathroom. 0:50:31.440 --> 0:50:38.520 He's seeing the message because he's getting the translation. I'm sorry, yeah, 0:50:38.560 --> 0:50:43.200 don't do that again. Okay, go go go, don't go. 0:50:43.600 --> 0:50:46.839 You're dismissed. Get out of here, don't go. Who is 0:50:46.880 --> 0:50:50.440 in the right here? The homeowner who says, there's construction 0:50:50.560 --> 0:50:54.360 happening at our house right now, and this is our bathroom, 0:50:55.000 --> 0:50:59.000 albeit a portable bathroom, and outside of our house. You 0:50:59.040 --> 0:51:02.040 cannot just stop and use it. Or the guy who 0:51:02.160 --> 0:51:04.840 is Amazon driving around and he goes, I have to 0:51:04.880 --> 0:51:08.600 go to the bathroom. There's a porta potty right here. 0:51:09.280 --> 0:51:13.000 We all kind of just do this, don't we? So 0:51:13.239 --> 0:51:15.440 who is in the right here? Pick aside? That's my 0:51:15.560 --> 0:51:17.640 question for you. But really I want to go back 0:51:17.680 --> 0:51:20.240 to the end just for a second, because it's easy 0:51:20.280 --> 0:51:23.239 to miss just how rude she was to him. No, no, 0:51:23.320 --> 0:51:31.879 I don't want anything from you. Don't do that. She's 0:51:31.880 --> 0:51:32.920 so disgusted by it. 0:51:33.080 --> 0:51:35.680 That's like me going to your house and using your bathroom. 0:51:36.680 --> 0:51:39.680 Our house is under construction and we personally are using 0:51:39.719 --> 0:51:42.399 that bathroom. You just came to our house and went 0:51:42.440 --> 0:51:43.240 in our bathroom. 0:51:43.320 --> 0:51:45.680 I want to remind you something here because a lot 0:51:45.680 --> 0:51:47.719 of people find by and chat with thoughts. What's the 0:51:47.760 --> 0:51:50.359 point of this? Aj says? Is that is that all 0:51:50.360 --> 0:51:52.560 she wanted to humiliate him and get an apology? What 0:51:52.600 --> 0:51:56.480 a s word. The thing is, not only did she 0:51:56.560 --> 0:51:58.759 confront this guy for using a porta potty when he 0:51:58.840 --> 0:52:01.799 had to go to the bathroom for God's sake, but 0:52:01.960 --> 0:52:05.960 she videotaped it when she recorded it with her phone. 0:52:06.239 --> 0:52:09.000 That's one thing she confronted him and recorded with her phone. 0:52:09.480 --> 0:52:12.880 The third piece of the puzzle is she then posted 0:52:12.920 --> 0:52:16.759 it online, right, And what is the point of that 0:52:16.840 --> 0:52:20.440 if not to solely just be like, can you believe this? Dude? 0:52:21.120 --> 0:52:24.400 He used our porta potty, This is our port to partty, 0:52:24.440 --> 0:52:28.520 for God's sake? What a less then he is? You peasant? 0:52:30.239 --> 0:52:34.399 So he says, I'm sorry, I'm sorry. There, Yeah, don't 0:52:34.440 --> 0:52:39.600 do that again. Okay, go go go, please leave. You're dismissed, 0:52:40.000 --> 0:52:42.719 Get out of here. What do you think, folks, who 0:52:42.920 --> 0:52:44.759 is in the right who's in the wrong? Here? You 0:52:44.840 --> 0:52:48.000 have to pick aside the Amazon worker who just tried 0:52:48.040 --> 0:52:49.440 to use the bathroom that he thought was just a 0:52:49.440 --> 0:52:51.920 porta potty out in front of a construction site, or 0:52:51.960 --> 0:52:54.320 the woman who says, this is our bathroom. You're just 0:52:54.520 --> 0:52:56.440 like using our bathroom in our house. What if I 0:52:56.480 --> 0:52:59.480 went to your house and use your bathroom? What do 0:52:59.520 --> 0:53:03.680 you think? When I watched this, I think I one 0:53:03.760 --> 0:53:05.959 hundred percent would have done what he did. I have 0:53:06.000 --> 0:53:09.279 done it, and I have done it same same, And like, 0:53:09.360 --> 0:53:12.080 I get it. The thing I did was wrong, it 0:53:12.160 --> 0:53:16.520 was illegal. The thing he did was illegal. But I mean, 0:53:16.520 --> 0:53:18.560 he's right in this situation, though, do you think she 0:53:18.600 --> 0:53:20.040 has a point at least? 0:53:20.360 --> 0:53:23.719 I mean she has a mild point because, like, like 0:53:23.800 --> 0:53:27.200 other people have pointed out in chat, legally medium X 0:53:27.280 --> 0:53:29.960 con put it, nailed it. She's morally wrong, but he's 0:53:30.040 --> 0:53:34.520 legally wrong right, technically he's going on to her property. Sure, 0:53:35.000 --> 0:53:38.160 but but but would any cop do anything about that? Like, 0:53:38.239 --> 0:53:41.759 would cops chime in on this? And they might have to? 0:53:42.280 --> 0:53:44.919 You think so if a cop said, if you said, hey, 0:53:45.080 --> 0:53:47.160 I was driving by my Amazon vehicle, I had to 0:53:47.239 --> 0:53:48.880 use the restroom, say used the porta partty at this 0:53:48.920 --> 0:53:52.279 construction site. These people are like so upset by this, 0:53:52.960 --> 0:53:54.920 now you're gonna be I don't think they would arrest you. 0:53:55.440 --> 0:53:59.640 Maybe not arrest, but they might, Uh, they might do 0:53:59.680 --> 0:54:03.480 the minimum that they have to do, you know, to 0:54:03.560 --> 0:54:06.520 appease this lady, which might be like writing up a 0:54:06.520 --> 0:54:11.080 criminal trespass something like that. You know, maybe not arresting 0:54:11.160 --> 0:54:15.799 him for trespassing then and there. Yeah, but you know, 0:54:15.920 --> 0:54:18.279 maybe like some sort of notice that says he can't 0:54:18.640 --> 0:54:21.520 return to that property for a year or something like that. 0:54:21.760 --> 0:54:24.480 Can I ask the big question here? The big question 0:54:24.520 --> 0:54:27.040 to me is this, what on earth are you so 0:54:27.160 --> 0:54:29.879 worried about lady, Are you worried he's going to make 0:54:29.960 --> 0:54:34.279 your porta potty? Gross? I have some news for you. 0:54:34.320 --> 0:54:37.600 Many other people before you have gone into your plastic 0:54:37.800 --> 0:54:42.040 bathroom and utilized it many times. And I hate to 0:54:42.080 --> 0:54:44.240 say it, but if you're living in a house that's 0:54:44.320 --> 0:54:47.759 so under construction that you don't even have a functioning 0:54:47.880 --> 0:54:52.239 inside bathroom, maybe your home is not livable all right. 0:54:52.600 --> 0:54:55.560 Nobody on the planet goes to a construction site, sees 0:54:55.600 --> 0:54:58.600 a porta potty and thinks this is now the homeowner's 0:54:58.640 --> 0:55:02.600 private bathroom. Nobody thinks that way. Nobody that I've ever 0:55:02.600 --> 0:55:05.040 met in my life thinks the workers. They think it's 0:55:05.040 --> 0:55:07.279 for the workers. They think there's something inside for the 0:55:07.280 --> 0:55:10.080 homeowners to use, or the homeowners just wouldn't be there, 0:55:10.440 --> 0:55:13.120 or if this is such a gd big deal to you, 0:55:13.600 --> 0:55:15.440 I don't. Don't the porta potties have a thing you 0:55:15.560 --> 0:55:19.000 could lock it? Imagine there's a lock on there, well, 0:55:19.040 --> 0:55:20.879 like going to put a pad lock on it. Yeah, 0:55:20.960 --> 0:55:23.560 I guess something that you would be able to lock 0:55:23.600 --> 0:55:26.480 it up. I just don't get it. I think if 0:55:26.520 --> 0:55:30.080 your house is so under construction that you don't even 0:55:30.080 --> 0:55:33.319 have a functioning bathroom. Your house is not livable, it's 0:55:33.320 --> 0:55:36.440 time for you, while you funded the construction, to fund 0:55:36.480 --> 0:55:41.280 yourself for a cheap little hotel for a week or so. Yeah, 0:55:41.520 --> 0:55:44.640 until you end up getting that place. No badger says 0:55:44.640 --> 0:55:46.880 she's one hundred percent not living there. It could be 0:55:46.960 --> 0:55:49.319 that she's not even living there. And then still just 0:55:49.360 --> 0:55:51.840 like mad that this guy would use the porta potty 0:55:51.840 --> 0:55:54.520 because it wasn't his, and he even wanted to pay, 0:55:54.560 --> 0:55:58.480 He was like offering all these things. Yeah, she was 0:55:58.560 --> 0:56:00.920 so rude to him, but she thought he was so 0:56:01.160 --> 0:56:04.360 rude to her. That's that's the real dilemma. 0:56:04.760 --> 0:56:08.759 And the thing about this is it's funny because this 0:56:08.880 --> 0:56:10.799 is like the second pick aside in a row that's 0:56:10.800 --> 0:56:12.360 had to deal with whether or not you should be 0:56:12.400 --> 0:56:14.440 allowed to use the bathroom at a place. Yeah, and 0:56:14.480 --> 0:56:17.960 in the previous one, I was siding with the store 0:56:18.040 --> 0:56:21.160 owner or the store clerk or whatever, just because it's 0:56:21.200 --> 0:56:23.400 a very common practice to have a sign on your 0:56:23.440 --> 0:56:27.680 store that says you must be a customer to use 0:56:27.719 --> 0:56:30.400 the restroom here. Sure, and I do have a like 0:56:30.440 --> 0:56:35.239 a I have a room, in my opinion, to have 0:56:35.280 --> 0:56:37.480 sympathy for somebody who just really has to go. 0:56:37.840 --> 0:56:39.759 Yeah, you too, but I did too. But I mean, 0:56:39.800 --> 0:56:41.120 if I had to go that bad and I was 0:56:41.120 --> 0:56:43.960 at a gas station, I'll buy a coke, man, because 0:56:43.960 --> 0:56:45.320 then I could go to the bathroom and then I 0:56:45.400 --> 0:56:48.160 get a coke one hundred percent right, that problem kind 0:56:48.160 --> 0:56:50.440 of solves itself. I would go, I have an emergency. 0:56:50.520 --> 0:56:52.600 I promise you, I'm going to spend twenty bucks in 0:56:52.640 --> 0:56:53.319 here on a way out. 0:56:53.400 --> 0:56:55.799 And the problem with the previous video is the guy 0:56:55.920 --> 0:56:57.480 was being a total dick about it. 0:56:58.160 --> 0:57:00.680 Yeah, he was rude. The other person was. But this 0:57:00.680 --> 0:57:02.680 this person was not rude at all. They don't even 0:57:02.719 --> 0:57:04.560 know English. Maybe she was not about that. He was 0:57:04.600 --> 0:57:07.840 being so nice. Dispatch dances. I'll say it again. This 0:57:07.920 --> 0:57:11.680 is the entitled rich people mentality. She didn't want them 0:57:12.280 --> 0:57:16.160 getting in their portagoon. Here's ks with the dispatch about 0:57:16.160 --> 0:57:17.480 this is what I said. 0:57:17.600 --> 0:57:19.200 I take it this woman is white. 0:57:20.240 --> 0:57:23.640 She is yeah, lady, white women. 0:57:24.080 --> 0:57:27.240 Karens lead the man alone. He had to go. 0:57:27.320 --> 0:57:28.479 He had to take the number two. 0:57:28.840 --> 0:57:34.400 It's house. I hope that's not what he did. If 0:57:34.400 --> 0:57:36.280 he left one of those behind, well. 0:57:36.320 --> 0:57:38.760 Does that does that change your opinion of how everything 0:57:38.800 --> 0:57:42.480 went down? If he uh, there were one ZIRATUZI. 0:57:43.760 --> 0:57:49.400 It could. Yeah, it's potential. There's potential that it could. 0:57:50.200 --> 0:57:53.840 Now it's funny because you watch this and you go, well, 0:57:53.960 --> 0:57:56.240 I would hope the guy was just just doing a 0:57:56.320 --> 0:57:59.400 pee in there, you know, and then after watching the 0:57:59.400 --> 0:58:02.320 way the woman him, now, I kind of like you 0:58:02.520 --> 0:58:04.320 would rewrite history and hope he wasn't. 0:58:04.320 --> 0:58:05.919 You know, I hope he was going for the full 0:58:06.920 --> 0:58:10.040 the full trip. I don't know whether he went number one, 0:58:10.160 --> 0:58:12.120 number two. He did touch his stomach. He was like, 0:58:12.160 --> 0:58:15.240 oh my, you know, like my stomach is yeah. Yeah, 0:58:15.280 --> 0:58:18.240 he like was rubbing his stomach, going, oh, it was bad. 0:58:19.000 --> 0:58:21.480 I had to go. It was an emergency. I like, 0:58:21.600 --> 0:58:24.760 like Selan, I agree on that front. I one hundred 0:58:24.880 --> 0:58:29.200 percent have to consider that I've been in those emergency 0:58:29.280 --> 0:58:32.920 situations too. I think that this lady could have had 0:58:32.960 --> 0:58:35.400 a point, and she could have been like, hey, I 0:58:35.440 --> 0:58:38.200 get what's going on here. Next time, just for the record, 0:58:38.240 --> 0:58:41.160 this is our personal porta potty. We actually use it 0:58:41.200 --> 0:58:44.720 if you don't mind, you know, don't don't leave anything behind. Right. 0:58:45.280 --> 0:58:47.120 She could have said that, but she didn't say that. 0:58:47.520 --> 0:58:50.400 She engaged with him. She was rude to him, She 0:58:50.640 --> 0:58:53.600 videotaped him, and then she post posted it up on 0:58:53.680 --> 0:58:58.560 social media to make him look back. It's the grip. Sorry, 0:58:58.880 --> 0:59:01.680 I think while she has a point, I picked the guy. 0:59:01.880 --> 0:59:05.040 I picked the guy in the emergency bathroom situation. We 0:59:05.080 --> 0:59:06.520 want to see what you think. 0:59:06.440 --> 0:59:10.439 As a person who has exited a porta potty and 0:59:10.600 --> 0:59:12.200 been met with angry people outside. 0:59:12.280 --> 0:59:14.160 Yeah, I picked the guy. I feel for him a 0:59:14.160 --> 0:59:16.800 little bit or not. Says it's dumb to think trespassing 0:59:16.880 --> 0:59:19.880 is okay, and that color making it about Ray sucks. 0:59:20.240 --> 0:59:22.360 I think he's just saying that about the Karen front 0:59:22.440 --> 0:59:25.160 or whatever. I care less about that. I just care 0:59:25.240 --> 0:59:29.040 more about like, who is in the right here? Fresh 0:59:29.080 --> 0:59:32.040 boy says, question, where are the construction workers supposed to 0:59:32.120 --> 0:59:34.160 use the bathroom? She won't let anyone else use the 0:59:34.200 --> 0:59:38.320 port to potty? I don't know. Good question. Yeah, let 0:59:38.400 --> 0:59:41.160 us know. Yeah. Dan says, Yeah, this isn't something he 0:59:41.200 --> 0:59:43.160 deserves to lose his job or payover. I hope his 0:59:43.200 --> 0:59:45.720 company's more understanding. Dude did offer to pay and fix it. 0:59:46.360 --> 0:59:50.200 His company is Amazon, So Amazon is like Amazon is 0:59:50.240 --> 0:59:52.600 so big that this woman could go this man used 0:59:52.600 --> 0:59:55.680 our private bathroom and he had no permission to do so, 0:59:56.440 --> 0:59:58.280 and they wouldn't even know what was going on, so 0:59:58.320 --> 1:00:00.400 that could be another problem. So let us know what 1:00:00.400 --> 1:00:02.200 you think. Send your dispatch over the news junkie dot 1:00:02.240 --> 1:00:07.120 com or an email tips tips on thenewsjunkie dot com.

Appreciate you. 1:00:57.360 --> 1:01:01.400 Appreciate Brad for the fourteen earlier You go next show. 1:01:01.480 --> 1:01:03.720 Some sport to the show over on the news junky 1:01:03.720 --> 1:01:06.400 dot com by subscribing or gifting as some subscriptions for 1:01:06.680 --> 1:01:11.040 other very greedy, very wanting listeners of the show. This 1:01:11.160 --> 1:01:14.400 is funny to me. In San Francisco, Selene, they've been 1:01:14.440 --> 1:01:19.320 trying to finally turn things around. And in San Francisco 1:01:20.120 --> 1:01:25.080 there are people who had enough finally of them being 1:01:25.160 --> 1:01:27.920 known as a city with human feces on the sidewalk, 1:01:28.680 --> 1:01:34.000 the hobo encampments everywhere, the tent cities, the sidewalks covered 1:01:34.040 --> 1:01:38.240 in tents, all that stuff. Finally, a couple of these 1:01:38.280 --> 1:01:41.080 San Franciscans got upset by that and they wanted to 1:01:41.080 --> 1:01:44.560 make some moves. The new mayor of San Francisco, from 1:01:44.560 --> 1:01:46.480 what I could tell, has actually been doing some stuff 1:01:46.480 --> 1:01:49.040 that was a little bit smarter than you might expect, 1:01:49.160 --> 1:01:50.960 you know, given the history of the city with the 1:01:51.000 --> 1:01:55.520 homeless issues, and I guess San Franciscans have been taken 1:01:55.640 --> 1:01:58.800 kindly to it. They've been liking that he's been changing 1:01:58.800 --> 1:02:00.480 things up and cleaning things up a little bit. They 1:02:00.520 --> 1:02:03.920 have a new policy treat every day like China is coming. 1:02:04.760 --> 1:02:07.520 Treat every Yeah. I was trying to spell that out, Yes, yeah, 1:02:07.520 --> 1:02:10.040 you know, literally just treat it like the premiere or 1:02:10.080 --> 1:02:13.480 the president of China's coming. I was like, what is that. 1:02:13.600 --> 1:02:15.800 I thought you were trying to spell like t U R. D. 1:02:16.120 --> 1:02:18.960 We're going in that direction, but this is different here. 1:02:19.440 --> 1:02:22.880 So these folks in San Francisco started freaking out. Let 1:02:22.920 --> 1:02:25.320 me bring up this story from KTLA in front of me. 1:02:26.000 --> 1:02:30.240 And these folks started freaking out because a homeless encampment 1:02:30.480 --> 1:02:34.760 was popping up in front of their place, and they 1:02:35.160 --> 1:02:38.640 obviously did not like this. Here is what the homeless 1:02:38.720 --> 1:02:41.240 encampment looked like on the sidewalk. And so I thought 1:02:41.240 --> 1:02:43.400 we were stopping this. I thought we were shutting down 1:02:43.440 --> 1:02:47.960 these homeless takeovers of the public sidewalk and living in 1:02:48.000 --> 1:02:51.280 little tents like this. And so they started to complain. 1:02:51.440 --> 1:02:54.000 They started to register the calls with the police and 1:02:54.000 --> 1:02:56.200 with the you know, three one ones and all of that, 1:02:56.960 --> 1:03:00.000 and when the information came back, they said, oh no, 1:03:01.080 --> 1:03:04.600 we can't actually get rid of this. We can't get 1:03:04.680 --> 1:03:08.360 rid of this homeless encampment. Any guesses as to why 1:03:08.400 --> 1:03:11.840 Sea Landard? Do you already know? Sure? I know, I 1:03:11.880 --> 1:03:12.760 don't already know. 1:03:12.960 --> 1:03:16.000 Okay, all right, they can't get rid of it because 1:03:17.080 --> 1:03:20.960 it is part of a movie shoot. 1:03:21.640 --> 1:03:27.640 That's exactly right. Actually, ye, this is not a real 1:03:27.840 --> 1:03:32.000 homeless camp of tents. This is legitimately they found out 1:03:32.480 --> 1:03:36.040 the set for a new Netflix movie called twenty thirty four, 1:03:37.080 --> 1:03:40.800 and in the movie about twenty thirty four San Francisco, 1:03:41.360 --> 1:03:45.200 they want to show the sidewalks with hobos and tents 1:03:45.240 --> 1:03:48.000 all over the place, So they show it that way 1:03:48.480 --> 1:03:51.560 by putting up a tent city on the telliewalk for filming. 1:03:51.560 --> 1:03:53.680 And then when the residents thin gets an actual tent 1:03:53.760 --> 1:03:56.600 city and try to get it shut down, well, they 1:03:56.600 --> 1:03:58.880 say we can't. It's kind of interesting to me because 1:03:58.920 --> 1:04:01.560 my first thought when I say this is that some 1:04:01.640 --> 1:04:05.640 of those tents are kind of nice looking, Like as 1:04:05.640 --> 1:04:09.560 far as tents goes, too clean, yeah, yeah, very much 1:04:09.600 --> 1:04:12.520 too clean for a homeless encampment. But you know, I 1:04:12.560 --> 1:04:16.560 know that sometimes some of these things get stolen or 1:04:17.040 --> 1:04:19.680 donated or whatever. 1:04:19.840 --> 1:04:25.200 So the fact that they might get access to nicer materials, 1:04:25.320 --> 1:04:28.560 nicer things like that is not crazy. But now that 1:04:28.640 --> 1:04:30.800 I know it's for a movie set, I think it 1:04:30.840 --> 1:04:33.800 looks even more too nice, because how's it going to 1:04:33.800 --> 1:04:37.120 be believable in twenty thirty four or twenty thirty whatever 1:04:37.120 --> 1:04:38.560 the film is called. 1:04:39.200 --> 1:04:43.560 When all the stuff is too cleaned up? They'll add 1:04:43.600 --> 1:04:46.080 that in post. I guess here's kat c La. I 1:04:46.080 --> 1:04:48.560 want to hear them talk about this. This is the 1:04:48.640 --> 1:04:50.960 story of this homeless camp that popped up, and people 1:04:50.960 --> 1:04:52.720 complain this It was fair. 1:04:52.640 --> 1:04:55.560 Quite a shock when a massive homeless encampment popped up 1:04:55.600 --> 1:04:59.080 in their neighborhood. Fortunately for those residents, it turned out 1:04:59.080 --> 1:04:59.640 to be fake. 1:05:04.960 --> 1:05:05.520 Quiet on the Sea. 1:05:05.600 --> 1:05:08.640 This encampment in the city's financial district is actually the 1:05:08.760 --> 1:05:12.920 set for new Netflix thriller twenty thirty four. The AI 1:05:13.080 --> 1:05:16.720 themed film stars Rachel McAdams and Jeff Daniels. Cruz equipment, 1:05:16.800 --> 1:05:21.400 trucks and traffic control officers our working meet, working in 1:05:21.480 --> 1:05:22.240 the area. 1:05:22.680 --> 1:05:26.840 Imagine that you go, oh, no, there's more hobos and 1:05:26.960 --> 1:05:31.040 the tents. Actually, this one's going to stay. This one's 1:05:31.040 --> 1:05:32.840 going to stay here for right now. Somebody says, I'm 1:05:32.840 --> 1:05:35.360 surprised actual homeless people didn't try to move in. Not yet, 1:05:35.680 --> 1:05:39.280 not yet, But that's what happens. Always a chance though. Yeah. 1:05:39.320 --> 1:05:41.800 The headline says, a massive homeless encampment popped up in 1:05:41.840 --> 1:05:44.640 San Francisco. Turns out it's fake, so they can't get 1:05:44.680 --> 1:05:46.320 rid of it because they have a permit for this 1:05:46.360 --> 1:05:49.400 particular homeless encampment. Let us know you think. Send a 1:05:49.400 --> 1:05:52.120 dispatch over at the news Junkie Dot com let's see 1:05:52.160 --> 1:05:53.960 what we got. I'm sure some people were chiming in 1:05:54.000 --> 1:05:58.000 on our pick a side, which was the homeowner who 1:05:58.280 --> 1:06:01.280 said to the Amazon where who went up? And she 1:06:01.360 --> 1:06:03.880 caught him using her porta potty on her property? She said, 1:06:04.120 --> 1:06:07.240 that's our porta potty. It's like using our bathroom. Our 1:06:07.240 --> 1:06:09.600 house is under construction and we used that porta potty. 1:06:09.640 --> 1:06:13.360 How could you do this? So many people had thoughts 1:06:13.560 --> 1:06:18.320 and let's see, here's a tts from the elder. I 1:06:18.400 --> 1:06:20.720 probably wouldn't have said anything if the guy was an 1:06:20.800 --> 1:06:24.440 obvious Amazon driver, But if the guy maybe look like 1:06:24.480 --> 1:06:28.560 a hobo, I would maybe say something. I know you 1:06:28.640 --> 1:06:31.200 may not be right, but that's what I would do, 1:06:31.280 --> 1:06:34.520 all right? Thank you? Is Flip talking about this thing 1:06:34.560 --> 1:06:37.640 happening in his neighborhood. Really this has happened to him. 1:06:37.960 --> 1:06:40.560 So a similar thing like this happened in our neighborhood. 1:06:41.120 --> 1:06:43.920 I happen to be on the homeowners association because I 1:06:43.960 --> 1:06:48.120 hate homeowners associations, so I wanted to keep everybody in check. 1:06:48.760 --> 1:06:51.320 And we had a house under construction that had a 1:06:51.360 --> 1:06:55.440 portajohn that the landscape folks that were mowing our common 1:06:55.480 --> 1:06:57.840 areas would use all the time, and the homeowner was 1:06:57.880 --> 1:07:00.760 getting upset because he has to pay to. 1:07:02.120 --> 1:07:04.720 You know, get it emptied and cleaned and all that. 1:07:04.880 --> 1:07:09.800 So the first instance where somebody's caught, you're not going 1:07:09.840 --> 1:07:11.240 to get a ticket or get in trouble. 1:07:11.280 --> 1:07:12.000 You get a warning. 1:07:12.080 --> 1:07:15.480 And then and this is in Virginia with Virginia cops 1:07:15.520 --> 1:07:17.960 and all that sort of thing. Sure, the second time, 1:07:18.040 --> 1:07:20.560 if you're caught doing the same thing after you've been warned, 1:07:20.600 --> 1:07:23.720 then you can get a citation. But the simple answer 1:07:23.800 --> 1:07:26.720 to that was, hey, homeowner, put a pad lock on it, 1:07:26.840 --> 1:07:29.960 give the key or the combination to the contractors who 1:07:30.160 --> 1:07:32.120 use it, and tell them to lock it up when 1:07:32.120 --> 1:07:32.480 you're done. 1:07:32.480 --> 1:07:35.040 You won't have this situation. Yeah, that's what I was saying. 1:07:35.080 --> 1:07:36.720 I was like, you could put a lock on these 1:07:36.760 --> 1:07:38.920 things if you're so territorial about it. 1:07:39.000 --> 1:07:41.919 I mean, it's weird because he's saying, hey, homeowner, put 1:07:41.920 --> 1:07:44.080 a put a lock on it. But a lot of 1:07:44.120 --> 1:07:47.800 times it's the construction companies themselves that set up these 1:07:47.800 --> 1:07:50.960 porta potties. Now, if she was really telling the truth, 1:07:51.040 --> 1:07:53.800 inas much as they are living in the house but 1:07:53.840 --> 1:07:55.840 don't have a bathroom, so that's the bathroom they use, 1:07:55.880 --> 1:07:59.200 and maybe they did hire the porta potty themselves, but 1:07:59.240 --> 1:08:02.640 it just seems like something that the construction company already 1:08:02.680 --> 1:08:04.880 has to deal with, so they would be the ones 1:08:05.720 --> 1:08:07.280 like in charge of it. 1:08:07.880 --> 1:08:10.919 Yeah, yeah, I mean I think that that makes sense 1:08:10.960 --> 1:08:14.120 to me. I don't know. I don't know if that 1:08:14.240 --> 1:08:16.519 lady will find it to be sensible though. I think 1:08:16.520 --> 1:08:19.800 that lady was very serious about what she was doing 1:08:19.800 --> 1:08:23.200 and very rude to the guy here's big al So, 1:08:23.360 --> 1:08:28.040 this lady with a porta potty, that's just definitely morally wrong. 1:08:28.240 --> 1:08:30.639 But I've stopped to use porta potties at job sites 1:08:30.680 --> 1:08:33.240 before ever to get me twice. I'm in construction, but 1:08:33.280 --> 1:08:35.160 I drive around a lot. I mean, you gotta go, 1:08:35.280 --> 1:08:35.960 you gotta go. 1:08:36.479 --> 1:08:38.920 If that was my house, I could give two shakes 1:08:39.040 --> 1:08:42.160 less and yes, you kind of a pad on the outside. 1:08:42.200 --> 1:08:44.360 Some of the dich characters will lock their personal porn 1:08:44.479 --> 1:08:46.400 potties on a job site. 1:08:46.240 --> 1:08:48.720 Or the ones for women on a job site. They 1:08:48.760 --> 1:08:50.960 will have their own key so the men can't use it. 1:08:51.720 --> 1:08:54.320 But this lady's just being a pain in the ass, 1:08:54.479 --> 1:08:57.240 silly way to say it. I hope that's allowed. Have 1:08:57.320 --> 1:09:00.000 a good one, guys, Thank you big al appreciate that. 1:09:00.160 --> 1:09:03.439 Thanks for your feedback. You could be next record your 1:09:03.479 --> 1:09:06.920 message over at the Newsjunkie dot com. I mean, I 1:09:07.400 --> 1:09:09.519 think like you just have to Ceelian and hit the 1:09:09.600 --> 1:09:10.840 nail on the head for me. You just have to 1:09:10.920 --> 1:09:14.040 understand this. Sometimes people have emergencies and it's not like 1:09:14.160 --> 1:09:17.040 something they're doing because they're angry at you or to 1:09:17.080 --> 1:09:20.280 get back at you, or you know, anything like that. 1:09:20.360 --> 1:09:25.280 When I was like younger, like a kid, elementary age, daycare, 1:09:25.840 --> 1:09:30.280 I still remember one of the only times my mom 1:09:30.400 --> 1:09:33.720 told me that I could disobey an adult was that 1:09:33.800 --> 1:09:35.800 if that adult was telling me that I couldn't go 1:09:35.800 --> 1:09:38.599 to the bathroom and I really had to right, like, 1:09:38.920 --> 1:09:42.400 you know, the only time that it was like acceptable 1:09:42.439 --> 1:09:48.400 for me to just deliberately go against somebody's wishes an adult. 1:09:48.479 --> 1:09:51.799 Witch is like that somebody in a position of authority 1:09:51.920 --> 1:09:54.120 was like, hey, you have to go to the bathroom, 1:09:54.240 --> 1:09:56.800 and you know, and they have a problem with it. 1:09:56.800 --> 1:09:58.719 They could talk to me, Yeah, what are you supposed 1:09:58.720 --> 1:10:00.519 to do about this? Here's the last word on this 1:10:00.600 --> 1:10:01.880 one final dispatch from Daddy. 1:10:01.880 --> 1:10:04.560 Two times so with this porta potty situation, I know, 1:10:04.600 --> 1:10:06.040 if we were asked to raise our hand. If we 1:10:06.120 --> 1:10:08.320 taken a random dump and a random porta party before, 1:10:08.479 --> 1:10:10.720 a whole lot of hands would go up. Now to 1:10:10.960 --> 1:10:13.720 ask how many of us took that dump at a 1:10:13.760 --> 1:10:16.160 residential property while people were living in the home and 1:10:16.200 --> 1:10:19.240 we weren't a contractor working there or one of their guests, 1:10:19.280 --> 1:10:21.840 the amount of hands would go down to damn near zero. 1:10:22.160 --> 1:10:26.880 So I understand the importance and the urgency in the 1:10:26.920 --> 1:10:30.000 matter at hand. This is Florida, man, You might get 1:10:30.040 --> 1:10:34.559 shot taking a dump in someone's property, on their property. 1:10:34.600 --> 1:10:36.360 You know what I'm saying, Like, I don't want to 1:10:36.360 --> 1:10:41.800 be with somebody over the too. Probably he wasn't saying 1:10:41.880 --> 1:10:43.920 it's a good idea to shoot people for this, But 1:10:44.120 --> 1:10:46.360 you know how many times have we had a story 1:10:46.400 --> 1:10:51.040 about somebody getting shot for turning around in the wrong driveway? True, Yeah, 1:10:51.120 --> 1:10:54.200 it's absolutely happened. All right, we'll take more of your 1:10:54.240 --> 1:10:58.040 responses on anything we're talking about here today. We will 1:10:58.080 --> 1:11:01.000 take emails as well. Tips at the News Junkie when 1:11:01.040 --> 1:11:03.360 we come back. We got the hot sheet that's all 1:11:03.400 --> 1:11:05.560 geared up and ready to go. We got an announcement 1:11:05.680 --> 1:11:08.120 for you at the start of the Power Hour and 1:11:08.160 --> 1:11:09.920 so much more on the way, and I shared the 1:11:09.960 --> 1:11:13.439 show Tuesday, and that's coming up next on the News 1:11:13.520 --> 1:11:32.920 Junkie from just moments ago. I guess Trump was asked 1:11:33.040 --> 1:11:37.479 why the FBI was at Lindsay Graham's house? What are 1:11:37.479 --> 1:11:40.599 they doing there? If this is just some health issue? 1:11:40.680 --> 1:11:44.000 And Lindsay Graham wasn't killed by the Russians or the 1:11:44.000 --> 1:11:47.200 Iranians or whoever, or the Jews. I don't know. Somebody 1:11:47.200 --> 1:11:48.720 sent any email center. I think it might have been 1:11:48.760 --> 1:11:53.840 the Israelis, whatever you think, whatever your pet conspiracy is, 1:11:54.360 --> 1:11:57.040 why was the FBI at Lindsay Graham's house? And I 1:11:57.040 --> 1:11:58.840 guess this was just asked in the White House, let's 1:11:58.880 --> 1:11:59.160 listen to it. 1:11:59.280 --> 1:12:01.479 I could also ask, are you aware of why the 1:12:01.600 --> 1:12:04.880 FBI is looking into Senator Graham's have done? 1:12:04.880 --> 1:12:06.280 In the updates on why they. 1:12:06.200 --> 1:12:08.519 Ran some Well, I don't know why, because I think 1:12:08.680 --> 1:12:11.680 you know, he had a problem. His father had a 1:12:11.760 --> 1:12:15.320 very similar problem, as you know, it's very unique. At 1:12:15.360 --> 1:12:18.000 first I heard it was clog daughter is because he 1:12:18.080 --> 1:12:21.000 did have clog daughters. He had a problem with that 1:12:21.200 --> 1:12:24.960 he was I wish he took better care of himself. 1:12:25.000 --> 1:12:27.559 I say, you could see, you know you can solve 1:12:27.600 --> 1:12:31.200 that problem. But what happened is actually something that's very 1:12:31.200 --> 1:12:31.960 hard to detect. 1:12:32.000 --> 1:12:35.240 It was not related to the A blockage. It was 1:12:35.760 --> 1:12:36.800 a totally different thing. 1:12:36.880 --> 1:12:41.439 And supposedly, and I've watched all the medical reports. I've 1:12:41.439 --> 1:12:43.240 had the doctors from the White House come in and 1:12:43.280 --> 1:12:46.559 explain what happened. And this is something that is very 1:12:47.160 --> 1:12:50.559 almost undetectable, and yeah, it happens. 1:12:50.560 --> 1:12:52.559 There's not much you can do about ec. 1:12:53.320 --> 1:12:56.240 Yeah, were you we heard you kind of crying a 1:12:56.280 --> 1:13:01.320 little bit. Were those tears? Also talk about Lindsay Graham's 1:13:01.360 --> 1:13:06.320 clogged guarteries and the glasshouse is trump right, I mean 1:13:06.400 --> 1:13:11.120 a bit of a your fast food animal yourself. I 1:13:11.200 --> 1:13:12.880 know that, I've seen that my son. 1:13:12.920 --> 1:13:15.240 I think Lindsay Graham has been photographed as much as 1:13:15.280 --> 1:13:16.439 McDonald's as you have. 1:13:16.880 --> 1:13:19.600 Yeah, I think he's maybe a little out of his 1:13:19.680 --> 1:13:20.920 lane there, unfortunately. 1:13:20.920 --> 1:13:22.400 But there's not much you can do about it. 1:13:22.439 --> 1:13:27.160 If you look at his his father died of the 1:13:27.200 --> 1:13:30.120 same thing at about the same age, Jesus, so. 1:13:30.040 --> 1:13:33.360 There was not much. They say, it's almost undetected. So 1:13:33.400 --> 1:13:35.040 my fat behind detected by. 1:13:35.080 --> 1:13:38.160 If you have a very bad back, that's a sign 1:13:38.240 --> 1:13:41.439 that's a bad sign. So if anybody has a bad back, 1:13:43.240 --> 1:13:44.280 it's a pretty. 1:13:44.040 --> 1:13:45.479 Rough thing to think about it. 1:13:45.520 --> 1:13:47.760 But the fact that's one of the primary sons, and 1:13:47.800 --> 1:13:50.080 he would tell me he had a bad back, but 1:13:50.200 --> 1:13:52.760 little did anyone realized it was so there so and 1:13:52.840 --> 1:13:56.479 when that bursts, which it did bursts, there's. 1:13:56.280 --> 1:13:58.240 Not much show. I don't see a lot of people there. 1:13:58.800 --> 1:14:02.960 If you have a bad back, you've been warned. Number one. 1:14:03.240 --> 1:14:05.320 Number two. I don't know how that answers the question 1:14:05.400 --> 1:14:09.720 of the FBI at his house following his sudden death. 1:14:09.720 --> 1:14:12.880 Maybe just making sure, I don't know you let us 1:14:12.920 --> 1:14:15.519 know what you think. Send a dispatch right now, let's 1:14:15.560 --> 1:14:19.400 do the hot sheet, my god sheet. It's in new 1:14:20.520 --> 1:14:22.479 but not like important news. 1:14:22.640 --> 1:14:25.360 That's that'st again of reporting on the planet from the 1:14:25.360 --> 1:14:26.240 people on your screen. 1:14:26.280 --> 1:14:31.000 And then speakers are on the hot sheet with Sea Lane. 1:14:31.080 --> 1:14:33.040 That's right, the top five stories right here in the 1:14:33.040 --> 1:14:35.360 nonsense news, brought to you by that mortgage guide down 1:14:35.560 --> 1:14:39.519 and Sean. Where do you land on movie lengths these days? 1:14:39.560 --> 1:14:41.000 I know there's been a bunch of talk about it. 1:14:41.000 --> 1:14:44.040 There was a new report last week or something about 1:14:44.080 --> 1:14:45.200 when the how long they. 1:14:45.120 --> 1:14:48.880 Think movies should be oh oh god. I think a 1:14:48.960 --> 1:14:51.720 movie should be every second that it needs to be 1:14:51.760 --> 1:14:55.320 a not one second more personally, but two hours is 1:14:55.360 --> 1:14:57.880 about around what I tend to like. I think you 1:14:58.040 --> 1:15:00.840 like you like two hours? Yeah, two hours. I think 1:15:00.880 --> 1:15:02.200 you need to take a little chum maybe an hour 1:15:02.320 --> 1:15:05.280 forty two hours something. It takes about two hours out 1:15:05.280 --> 1:15:06.160 of your day. I like that. 1:15:06.360 --> 1:15:10.559 Well, they're talking a lot about some of the movies 1:15:10.600 --> 1:15:13.760 that have come out recently. I think Oppenheimer. But Oppenheimer 1:15:13.800 --> 1:15:17.800 was pretty long. The new Christopher Nolan The Odyssey is 1:15:17.800 --> 1:15:20.400 supposed to be pretty long. The story itself is pretty long, 1:15:20.439 --> 1:15:24.720 so it's hard to kind of trunkate Homer's Odyssey. And 1:15:24.760 --> 1:15:27.680 now Disney is saying they're putting premium format tickets on 1:15:27.760 --> 1:15:32.680 sale months in advance for Avengers Doom Day Doomsday. The 1:15:32.720 --> 1:15:35.120 studio plans to announced the domestic tickets for the eagerly 1:15:35.120 --> 1:15:39.360 anticipated franchise sequel will go on sale July twentieth. The 1:15:39.400 --> 1:15:41.760 studio will open the ticket sales five months early for 1:15:41.920 --> 1:15:46.360 these Infinity Vision theaters, which is the large format designation 1:15:46.439 --> 1:15:50.000 the studio announced for select Doomsday theater screens. They created 1:15:50.000 --> 1:15:52.040 that brand in the wake of Warner Brothers locking down 1:15:52.120 --> 1:15:55.519 Imax for Doune Part three for three weeks after both 1:15:55.560 --> 1:15:57.920 films are released on December eighteenth, So it's gonna be 1:15:57.920 --> 1:16:01.559 a big box office battle later this year. But now 1:16:01.600 --> 1:16:04.200 that they have they're starting to sell tickets. They have 1:16:04.280 --> 1:16:05.240 to schedule. 1:16:04.840 --> 1:16:07.200 These, and they have an early run time for the 1:16:07.240 --> 1:16:10.120 film of one hundred and sixty five minutes. That is 1:16:10.160 --> 1:16:13.960 two hours and forty five minutes. That's literally on the 1:16:14.080 --> 1:16:17.320 wrong side. But again, it doesn't matter to me personally 1:16:17.640 --> 1:16:20.040 as long as I'm not watching the movie thinking you 1:16:20.080 --> 1:16:22.439 could have edited this out or that out, or this out. 1:16:22.760 --> 1:16:25.840 If it's like like Obsession was a pretty longish movie. 1:16:25.880 --> 1:16:30.679 I think it was around two hours, wasn't the ninety 1:16:30.760 --> 1:16:33.120 It went by pretty quickly for me, And that goes 1:16:33.160 --> 1:16:36.720 to tell you, hold on Obsession runtime one hundred and 1:16:36.760 --> 1:16:39.160 eight minutes. I guess, okay, so just short of two 1:16:39.200 --> 1:16:42.920 hours Obsession was. But to me, that was the perfect 1:16:42.960 --> 1:16:44.719 link that movie should have been because there was nothing 1:16:44.760 --> 1:16:47.040 that I thought could have been cut out. So that's 1:16:47.040 --> 1:16:47.800 what I always think. 1:16:47.840 --> 1:16:51.280 To well, they say the final cut is unlikely to 1:16:51.320 --> 1:16:53.720 be locked in this far in advance. Selling tickets on 1:16:53.760 --> 1:16:55.719 a set schedule like this means they can only change 1:16:55.720 --> 1:16:58.240 the run the runtime by a small margin, because now 1:16:58.280 --> 1:17:01.160 they're selling things on a schedule at one hundred and 1:17:01.160 --> 1:17:03.760 sixty five minutes will be longer than twenty eighteen's Infinity War, 1:17:03.800 --> 1:17:06.479 but shorter than Endgame, which were in one hundred and 1:17:06.600 --> 1:17:11.280 eighty one minutes. Brad Pitt used to be, you know, 1:17:11.360 --> 1:17:15.559 the it guy man. He was the most desirable name 1:17:15.560 --> 1:17:18.960 in Hollywood at times, unless, of course, you're his daughter. 1:17:19.400 --> 1:17:22.840 Because another kid of Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie's is 1:17:22.840 --> 1:17:25.200 getting closer to closing the book on the family name, 1:17:25.760 --> 1:17:29.439 Zahara Jolie Pitt, has taken legal steps to just be 1:17:29.960 --> 1:17:33.519 Zahara Jolie. A court document show she's completed one of 1:17:33.600 --> 1:17:37.400 California's required hurdles for a legal name change by publishing 1:17:37.439 --> 1:17:38.800 I didn't know you had to do this to change 1:17:38.800 --> 1:17:41.920 your name, publishing notice of her petition in the Los 1:17:41.960 --> 1:17:46.600 Angeles Daily Journal once a week for four consecutive weeks. 1:17:47.520 --> 1:17:49.920 I saw this in Nathan for you believe it or not, 1:17:50.560 --> 1:17:53.280 Changing your name requires a lot of steps like this, 1:17:54.280 --> 1:17:56.639 and I find it to be weird. But what happened, 1:17:56.640 --> 1:17:58.600 like what is Brad Pitt supposed to see it in 1:17:58.640 --> 1:18:00.000 that publication. 1:17:59.520 --> 1:18:01.840 And hang on, I mean, I think you could just 1:18:01.880 --> 1:18:05.679 see it on his phone or I'm sure somebody's gonna 1:18:05.680 --> 1:18:06.400 tell me about it. 1:18:07.000 --> 1:18:09.559 But is that like a blue law? 1:18:09.640 --> 1:18:11.840 Is that like an older thing, like publish it in 1:18:11.840 --> 1:18:15.040 the newspaper once a week for four consecutive weeks to 1:18:15.560 --> 1:18:16.080 tell the. 1:18:16.000 --> 1:18:18.120 World you have a different name. Or I guess it 1:18:18.120 --> 1:18:20.800 says you can call for anyone opposing the change to 1:18:20.880 --> 1:18:24.920 submit a written opposition before the final hearing. I bet 1:18:25.000 --> 1:18:28.799 it goes back to like marriage somehow, like a woman 1:18:28.960 --> 1:18:30.960 trying to change her name toget. 1:18:31.080 --> 1:18:32.760 I bet it goes back to that, But I'll check 1:18:33.280 --> 1:18:36.320 find out where to find out the divorcees. The twenty 1:18:36.320 --> 1:18:38.560 one year old filed her petition in June asking to 1:18:38.640 --> 1:18:41.840 legally change her name from Zahara Marley Jolie Pitt to 1:18:41.960 --> 1:18:44.960 just Zahara Marlee Jolie. 1:18:44.960 --> 1:18:45.960 Dropping the pit name. 1:18:46.040 --> 1:18:48.840 Apparently there's a little bit of trouble in Paradise when 1:18:48.840 --> 1:18:52.840 it comes to Brad Pitt and his children with Angelina Jolie. 1:18:53.280 --> 1:18:57.240 Over in the Kanye world, an ex employee of Kanye 1:18:57.320 --> 1:19:01.160 West is seeking a lot of money in legal fees 1:19:01.240 --> 1:19:06.280 after winning a court case against Kanye. This guy, Anthony 1:19:06.360 --> 1:19:10.000 Saxon Nettlecoas, a former employee who won a civil case 1:19:10.000 --> 1:19:12.680 against the rapper earlier this year, is now asking the 1:19:12.760 --> 1:19:15.639 judge to make Kanye cough up one point two million 1:19:15.680 --> 1:19:18.800 dollars in attorney's fees, which seems like a lot of 1:19:18.800 --> 1:19:22.320 money in attorney's fees when the jury only awarded the 1:19:22.360 --> 1:19:25.000 man one hundred and forty thousand dollars in damages after 1:19:25.040 --> 1:19:28.400 finding yea libel under California his labor code for failing 1:19:28.439 --> 1:19:32.000 to provide workers compensation insurance, so he gets one hundred 1:19:32.000 --> 1:19:36.519 and forty grand. His lawyers say, we logged seven hundred 1:19:36.520 --> 1:19:40.040 and forty attorney hours over the three year fight. That's 1:19:40.080 --> 1:19:42.200 worth to us a lot more than one hundred and 1:19:42.200 --> 1:19:44.759 forty grand. We're going to need one point two million 1:19:44.800 --> 1:19:49.360 dollars Jesus, So they're asking the judge to make Kanye 1:19:49.479 --> 1:19:52.559 pay up even more. The filing also takes aim at 1:19:52.640 --> 1:19:58.439 Kanye's litigation taxic tactics. It says that Kanye's people made 1:19:58.439 --> 1:20:01.920 one hundred thousand dollars settlement for just before trial, then 1:20:02.040 --> 1:20:06.120 later demanded Saxon pay two hundred thousand dollars himself and 1:20:06.240 --> 1:20:09.959 issue a public apology, which is attorneys say they rejected 1:20:09.960 --> 1:20:12.160 both and pressed onto a trial that they ended up winning. 1:20:12.600 --> 1:20:15.360 Real quick, go ahead, I'm sorry, I tell you were 1:20:15.680 --> 1:20:18.559 two hundred grand in an apology when you're the one suing. 1:20:18.800 --> 1:20:21.800 Is a wild ask real quick. On the name change thing, 1:20:22.080 --> 1:20:26.120 the main historical reasons were to prevent people from getting 1:20:26.120 --> 1:20:29.080 away from debt, so if they owed a debt and 1:20:29.160 --> 1:20:32.960 they wanted to change their name, preventing criminal evasions. So 1:20:32.960 --> 1:20:34.880 if you were like a wanted person and you changed 1:20:34.880 --> 1:20:39.240 your name, protecting inheritance and property rights and sometimes for 1:20:39.360 --> 1:20:42.960 like divorce notices and stuff as well. And it was 1:20:43.240 --> 1:20:45.160 it's weird that they still do that now, like in 1:20:45.200 --> 1:20:47.240 twenty twenty six. Does that make sense to still have 1:20:47.360 --> 1:20:50.639 to do this seems very town crier like. Here here 1:20:51.920 --> 1:20:56.559 Brad Pitt's daughter, the Lord Christopher Lane wishes to change 1:20:56.600 --> 1:20:59.040 his name. He made himself a lord, folks. 1:20:59.320 --> 1:21:02.200 Well yeah, I mean in the old days I would 1:21:02.240 --> 1:21:06.240 probably be a lord, at least a lord over in Italy. 1:21:07.320 --> 1:21:10.840 The iconic tenor Andrea Bocelli has his name attached to 1:21:10.880 --> 1:21:14.000 this really weird story, only because I guess he owns 1:21:14.040 --> 1:21:17.240 this piece of property that somebody rented out for their wedding. 1:21:18.160 --> 1:21:20.160 But a couple from the United States was a victim 1:21:20.160 --> 1:21:23.600 of a robbery at a swanky Butchelly family estate in 1:21:23.800 --> 1:21:27.880 Foot de dem Me, an upscale seaside town on the 1:21:27.920 --> 1:21:31.880 Tuscan coast, whereas intruders made their way in and helped 1:21:31.920 --> 1:21:34.960 themselves to watch his cash and find jewelry among other 1:21:35.080 --> 1:21:38.720 high end brand valuables while everyone was at dinner. A 1:21:38.720 --> 1:21:40.479 couple of feelds they were done dirty on the eve 1:21:40.520 --> 1:21:42.719 of their wedding. No less, there was no forced entrance 1:21:42.760 --> 1:21:45.559 into the locked and alarm set villa. A wall safe 1:21:45.600 --> 1:21:47.920 which they were unaware of in the home was even cracked, 1:21:48.439 --> 1:21:51.080 and local authorities responded, but the couple says they did 1:21:51.080 --> 1:21:53.920 a half assed job investigating. In their final report had 1:21:53.960 --> 1:22:01.559 glaring inaccuracies and weirdly enough, Andrea Bocelli it was like, yeah, 1:22:00.600 --> 1:22:03.880 I have very little to do with this except my 1:22:03.960 --> 1:22:06.280 name's on the deed, but it just it landed him 1:22:06.280 --> 1:22:09.200 in the news. Nonetheless, and last but not least, it 1:22:09.320 --> 1:22:13.040 is expensive to get a pardon from the president, and 1:22:13.479 --> 1:22:16.120 especially when you don't actually get it. Boozy Badass is 1:22:16.160 --> 1:22:20.360 suing after paying six hundred thousand dollars to lobbyists for 1:22:20.400 --> 1:22:23.639 a Trump pardon that never materialized. He had to pay 1:22:23.640 --> 1:22:26.479 three hundred up front, and he claims that since they 1:22:26.479 --> 1:22:28.479 didn't do it, they should give him money back. But 1:22:28.680 --> 1:22:32.720 that may or may not have been omitted from their contract, 1:22:32.800 --> 1:22:35.960 so he might be out six hundred k and not 1:22:36.160 --> 1:22:39.240 pardon for that possession of a gun by a Fellon 1:22:39.320 --> 1:22:42.120 kind of deal he was in trouble for. So Boozy 1:22:42.200 --> 1:22:46.800 Badass has got some troubles in his foregram. Hey, if 1:22:46.840 --> 1:22:49.479 you have a mortgage with a seven or eight in 1:22:49.520 --> 1:22:51.360 front of the rate, it's time to call that mortgage 1:22:51.360 --> 1:22:53.439 guy down. You're paying too much money. The rates have 1:22:53.479 --> 1:22:56.360 been headed down there at nearly three year lows, and 1:22:56.880 --> 1:22:58.479 so if you want to pay less money, you want 1:22:58.479 --> 1:23:00.240 to save a little bit of that, call our friend down. 1:23:00.280 --> 1:23:09.799 He'll help you out. Here is the website. All right, folks, 1:23:09.800 --> 1:23:11.519 when we come back, I got another pick aside for 1:23:11.560 --> 1:23:13.040 us to get into. We have a bunch of other 1:23:13.080 --> 1:23:15.599 stories that we haven't even begun to broach yet, but 1:23:15.960 --> 1:23:18.640 we'll continue with the updates. We have an announcement at 1:23:18.680 --> 1:23:20.680 the start of the Power Hour as well, and that's 1:23:20.720 --> 1:23:39.760 all coming up next on The News Junkie. We got 1:23:39.800 --> 1:23:42.800 an announcement at the top of the hour when we 1:23:42.880 --> 1:23:45.120 kick off the Power Hour, I got to pick a 1:23:45.240 --> 1:23:48.000 side for you here in just a moment. People have 1:23:48.000 --> 1:23:51.400 been loving those. My favorite part is sometimes people might 1:23:51.680 --> 1:23:53.960 they try to really hold me to the news part 1:23:54.000 --> 1:23:56.160 of the news junkie stuff. Sometimes I thought this was 1:23:56.200 --> 1:23:59.840 a news junkie. I said, this is not news. I say, wait, 1:24:00.280 --> 1:24:03.320 wait and watch. We just had a pick a side 1:24:03.320 --> 1:24:06.840 that we did like a week or two ago that 1:24:06.960 --> 1:24:09.080 when I woke up this morning, I saw in like 1:24:09.160 --> 1:24:13.200 three or four news stories. We take the story when 1:24:13.200 --> 1:24:15.280 it's just starting to pop off in the viral world. 1:24:15.640 --> 1:24:17.599 We talk about it as a pick aside. It's sort 1:24:17.600 --> 1:24:20.200 of a distraction here on the News Junkie, and then 1:24:20.240 --> 1:24:23.880 it legitimately becomes a news story like a week or 1:24:23.880 --> 1:24:26.680 two afterwards. That's how it goes. So just hit the 1:24:26.720 --> 1:24:30.600 brakes on that if you don't mind, I do. I 1:24:30.640 --> 1:24:32.680 do have that pick aside for you, and I want 1:24:32.720 --> 1:24:35.320 to get into that. But first I hope everybody's being 1:24:35.360 --> 1:24:39.640 careful out there because this this parasite that's making so 1:24:39.720 --> 1:24:44.240 many people sick. Is really starting to spread. And I 1:24:44.360 --> 1:24:48.080 keep hearing California finds its first case. There are cases 1:24:48.080 --> 1:24:52.840 in Florida. It's spreading across New York, this parasite that 1:24:52.880 --> 1:24:55.800 they think maybe is coming from the produce at someplace. 1:24:56.040 --> 1:24:59.839 People are blaming Taco Bell, and I really. 1:24:59.600 --> 1:25:03.920 Blaming Taco Bell, like they're talking about investigating Taco Bell and. 1:25:04.000 --> 1:25:06.240 All of that. I think se Lane is because of 1:25:06.479 --> 1:25:10.479 insert diarrhea joke. That's literally what it is. There has 1:25:10.560 --> 1:25:12.640 been a lot of that. All of these people are 1:25:12.640 --> 1:25:16.519 posting on social media. There's a parasite causing everybody to 1:25:16.600 --> 1:25:24.960 have diarrhea. And Taco Bell, what what what are you 1:25:25.040 --> 1:25:29.320 doing here? Taco Bell simply saw that this was spreading 1:25:29.400 --> 1:25:33.799 from I think Michigan, and in their Michigan state, Taco 1:25:33.880 --> 1:25:37.440 Bell restaurants took a bunch of items off the menu. 1:25:38.080 --> 1:25:41.280 Poor Taco Bell gets it hard. Like the headlines I saw, 1:25:41.600 --> 1:25:43.120 let me see Taco Bell. 1:25:43.240 --> 1:25:46.280 Do you think Taco Bell like, I don't think they 1:25:46.479 --> 1:25:49.720 are really worried about that stigma. It doesn't seem to 1:25:49.760 --> 1:25:53.640 affect their bottom line. It doesn't seem to affect It 1:25:53.680 --> 1:25:56.360 doesn't look like they've ever tried to go out on 1:25:56.400 --> 1:25:59.280 the offensive or on the defense. 1:25:58.840 --> 1:26:02.800 Maybe of of this whole. You know, Taco Bell gives 1:26:02.840 --> 1:26:05.800 you a stomach troubles kind of idea. They just go, 1:26:06.560 --> 1:26:09.880 all right, you guys haven't stopped coming to get the cheloupas, 1:26:10.320 --> 1:26:12.360 so we're gonna keep serving them to you. You know 1:26:12.439 --> 1:26:14.679 what those sea lane It's that would be like trying 1:26:14.720 --> 1:26:19.719 to save beans right now. Beans are forever tied to farts. 1:26:19.800 --> 1:26:22.559 It's just it's just the way of the world that 1:26:22.640 --> 1:26:27.760 beings rhyme. Yes, that's literally that rhyme beans. Beans are 1:26:27.800 --> 1:26:30.920 good for your heart. That that has done being the 1:26:30.960 --> 1:26:35.360 bean industry and big bean conglomerate in for all of 1:26:35.400 --> 1:26:38.800 these years. But what I think is really happening here 1:26:38.840 --> 1:26:41.759 is Taco Bell is being proactive and in their Michigan 1:26:41.800 --> 1:26:44.880 restaurants they stop selling lettuce and cilantro and a couple 1:26:44.880 --> 1:26:47.800 of other issues or aup of the other items. And 1:26:47.840 --> 1:26:51.680 in these Taco Bell Michigan locations, they were trying to 1:26:51.680 --> 1:26:54.320 be decent about this so they didn't get more people sick. 1:26:54.600 --> 1:26:57.360 And the headlines are like Taco Bell investigated is let 1:26:57.439 --> 1:27:02.439 us emerges as possible source of this size cyclospariasis. The 1:27:02.479 --> 1:27:06.639 cyclospariasis outbreak. Is it tied to Taco Bell? Taco Bell, 1:27:06.720 --> 1:27:09.160 we all knew they gave you diarrhea, but we didn't 1:27:09.160 --> 1:27:12.960 know it was dispatch calling it explosive, too explosive. Yeah, 1:27:13.000 --> 1:27:17.360 here's one right here, Taco Bell eyed an explosive diarrheal outbreak. 1:27:17.720 --> 1:27:21.400 Leafy Green suspected, but as far as I can tell, 1:27:21.800 --> 1:27:26.080 it's just something that started in Michigan, and Taco Bell 1:27:26.200 --> 1:27:28.960 was like, we don't want to be causing more problems, 1:27:29.200 --> 1:27:31.400 so let's stop selling this stuff at our locations. And 1:27:31.439 --> 1:27:32.320 they just blamed that. 1:27:32.640 --> 1:27:32.880 Now. 1:27:33.560 --> 1:27:36.280 I don't know if this was something that somebody dispatched 1:27:36.320 --> 1:27:39.960 in or I read it somewhere, but they were saying 1:27:40.280 --> 1:27:45.160 Michigan was kind of an important factor in that, because 1:27:45.920 --> 1:27:48.599 I guess there are some food service companies or something 1:27:48.600 --> 1:27:51.840 that have like a hub in Michigan that ships a 1:27:51.840 --> 1:27:54.720 lot of their product out to a different states. So 1:27:54.720 --> 1:27:57.400 they were worried, like, Okay, if this is it in Michigan, 1:27:57.720 --> 1:28:00.439 that would be ground zero for some sort of like 1:28:00.479 --> 1:28:04.760 this and then spreads, and so that's why we were 1:28:04.760 --> 1:28:06.960 seeing it in Florida, we're seeing it in California. I 1:28:07.000 --> 1:28:09.280 think it's even further than that. Sea Lane, because I 1:28:09.320 --> 1:28:10.840 think this is one of those things that people are 1:28:10.840 --> 1:28:14.040 embarrassed to say they got. It was kind of embarrassing 1:28:14.080 --> 1:28:15.720 to say you had COVID for a little bit of 1:28:15.840 --> 1:28:19.840 a time, but more so, it's super embarrassing to be like, oh, 1:28:19.960 --> 1:28:24.920 I got that parasite that gives you absolutely explosive diarrhea. 1:28:25.840 --> 1:28:29.040 Nobody wants to admit to that. I think the amount 1:28:29.080 --> 1:28:31.640 of people who have this is zeros and zeros and 1:28:31.720 --> 1:28:34.519 zeros behind whatever they tell you it is I do. 1:28:34.880 --> 1:28:37.040 But they're having fun with this. Here's TMZ. Taco Bell 1:28:37.160 --> 1:28:43.280 probed all right, that's purposeful in explosive diarrhea outbreak and 1:28:43.320 --> 1:28:45.120 says might have to put a longer pause on those 1:28:45.200 --> 1:28:49.080 drunk late night Taco Bell visits. Because the explosive diarrhea 1:28:49.160 --> 1:28:51.559 parasite is starting to go national, and the fast food 1:28:51.600 --> 1:28:54.800 chain is under investigation for a possible connection to the outbreak. 1:28:54.960 --> 1:28:57.439 According to The Washington Post, the investigation is ongoing with 1:28:57.560 --> 1:28:59.720 leafy lettuce is the leading suspect and what's causing the 1:28:59.720 --> 1:29:02.320 outu break, but that doesn't mean other food items can't 1:29:02.360 --> 1:29:05.639 be ruled out. To be clear, investigation extends beyond Taco 1:29:05.680 --> 1:29:08.640 Bell locations with officials looking at various potential sources of 1:29:08.680 --> 1:29:11.479 the outbreak. As far as I know, the only connection 1:29:11.560 --> 1:29:13.679 is that Taco Bell said, we're going to stop serving 1:29:13.760 --> 1:29:16.439 up the lettuce because we think the lettuce is the 1:29:16.479 --> 1:29:20.280 source for the outbreak. Everybody else has lettuce too. Taco 1:29:20.320 --> 1:29:22.880 Bell was just kind of like being proactive and saying 1:29:22.920 --> 1:29:26.240 we're gonna pull it off. And for being proactive, everybody's 1:29:26.280 --> 1:29:29.599 like Taco Bell is doing this because all these outlets, 1:29:29.680 --> 1:29:32.519 TMZ is just one of them, but serious news outlets too. 1:29:32.760 --> 1:29:35.200 All they want to do is get clicks, so they 1:29:35.280 --> 1:29:39.000 will do this and do the direction target. Taco Bell 1:29:39.040 --> 1:29:41.320 is a second target for this. Yeah, it is kind of. 1:29:41.240 --> 1:29:44.320 Funny to me that the culprit right now, like the 1:29:44.439 --> 1:29:48.799 lead suspect in all this is leafy greens or specifically lettuce, 1:29:49.520 --> 1:29:51.479 like because you just think of like the no carb 1:29:51.600 --> 1:29:55.439 crowd or like the the I'm a man, I eat 1:29:55.479 --> 1:29:57.880 steak and drink stolely and that's my day, you know, 1:29:58.000 --> 1:30:01.519 and you're like, ah see, the salad is taking you down. 1:30:03.360 --> 1:30:07.040 This is what's responsible, you know, because that is bad. 1:30:07.160 --> 1:30:09.719 It's bad, it hurts, it's not good, but it's coming 1:30:09.760 --> 1:30:11.759 from produce. Like I said, I said this the moment 1:30:11.800 --> 1:30:13.760 the story popped out. I said, when people get sick, 1:30:13.800 --> 1:30:16.120 they get from They get sick from the produce because 1:30:16.479 --> 1:30:20.000 the produce is grown in places where a lot of 1:30:20.040 --> 1:30:22.479 times the feces from the animals, cows and pigs, it 1:30:22.600 --> 1:30:26.760 farms upstream, comes down into the water. If you've read 1:30:27.720 --> 1:30:30.880 Sinclair's The Jungle, you know exactly what I'm talking about. 1:30:31.840 --> 1:30:34.080 But this is a long held thing that's actually true 1:30:34.520 --> 1:30:38.800 where the livestock uses the you know, they go to 1:30:38.800 --> 1:30:40.800 the bathroom. They don't actually go to the bathroom because 1:30:40.800 --> 1:30:43.160 they're cows. They just poop, poop and peep and it 1:30:43.320 --> 1:30:46.280 tumbles around and then it washes off into the water, 1:30:46.400 --> 1:30:50.000 and then the water ends up contacting the places that 1:30:50.040 --> 1:30:52.880 are growing the fruits and vegetables that you eat, and 1:30:52.920 --> 1:30:57.439 then that's how these things can get into the food, 1:30:57.880 --> 1:31:00.840 and so it ends up on this lettuce or whatever 1:31:00.880 --> 1:31:03.479 else that you're eating. And then the one company that goes, 1:31:03.479 --> 1:31:04.960 all right, we don't want more people to get sick 1:31:04.960 --> 1:31:07.599 than have to in Michigan is Taco Bell, and they 1:31:07.640 --> 1:31:09.960 just get drilled for it. Here's an email coming in. 1:31:10.000 --> 1:31:12.760 Let's get some of your feedback. Barry emails the show 1:31:12.800 --> 1:31:15.720 tips at the Newsjunkie dot com. As a doctor that 1:31:15.800 --> 1:31:20.320 treats almost exclusively bad backs, the info that you played 1:31:20.320 --> 1:31:23.200 that Trump gave out is misleading. Trump will talk about 1:31:23.200 --> 1:31:26.200 Lindsay Graham dying and saying the heart thing that killed him. 1:31:26.640 --> 1:31:30.240 Oftentimes the only symptom that you see is that your 1:31:30.320 --> 1:31:34.280 back hurts, and this Bury the doctor says that's misleading. 1:31:34.800 --> 1:31:40.200 Dissecting aortic aneurysms cause severe tearing back pain as it 1:31:40.320 --> 1:31:44.559 tears and ruptures right before death. But simply having a 1:31:44.600 --> 1:31:47.679 bad back does not at all indicate that you could 1:31:47.720 --> 1:31:51.080 have this problem. I've treated thousands of patients with bad 1:31:51.120 --> 1:31:54.000 backs over twenty five plus years, and absolutely zero of 1:31:54.040 --> 1:31:56.479 them have had this rare problem. Just don't want people 1:31:56.520 --> 1:31:58.280 out there with bad backs, which is more than half 1:31:58.280 --> 1:32:01.680 of us freaking out. Thank you Berry, good information. Thank 1:32:01.720 --> 1:32:04.200 you for the email. Collective sigh of relief from the 1:32:04.240 --> 1:32:08.600 bad back for me too, right out where many of 1:32:08.640 --> 1:32:12.639 us are in that mix. Let's do another dispatch here. 1:32:12.840 --> 1:32:17.559 This is Bland talking about the name change situation for 1:32:17.640 --> 1:32:19.960 Brad Pitt's daughterkies Hey. 1:32:20.560 --> 1:32:23.800 Name change stuff. First, I've been a family law paralegal 1:32:23.840 --> 1:32:27.559 for twelve years. Way too long, I know. But in divorce, 1:32:27.720 --> 1:32:32.280 the paperwork is already established for restoring former names and 1:32:32.360 --> 1:32:36.080 getting a marriage license has ways to do hyphenating your 1:32:36.240 --> 1:32:38.760 last name or taking other person's last name, or both 1:32:38.800 --> 1:32:40.479 of you making up a new last name we've go 1:32:40.520 --> 1:32:43.800 on together, or whatever. So that's family law related. What 1:32:44.240 --> 1:32:46.599 the Jolie Pit thing is doing is not. And it's 1:32:46.640 --> 1:32:50.200 different paperwork. Especially in California, which is where I do 1:32:50.240 --> 1:32:53.519 a lot of my paralegal work. It's separating you. 1:32:53.600 --> 1:32:53.840 Usually. 1:32:53.840 --> 1:32:55.640 Hey, by the way, let me just stop Bland for 1:32:55.680 --> 1:32:58.680 a moment here. These last two pieces of feedback on 1:32:58.720 --> 1:33:02.519 the show. This is is it man, This is what 1:33:02.560 --> 1:33:06.080 I'm talking about. When you have some specialized knowledge on 1:33:06.160 --> 1:33:09.240 what we're talking about and you can add to the conversation, 1:33:09.479 --> 1:33:12.519 clarify things, and help people. These are the kinds of 1:33:12.880 --> 1:33:15.320 emails and dispatches I'm really looking for. 1:33:15.400 --> 1:33:19.160 Okay, use a different attorney. But the reason you post 1:33:19.200 --> 1:33:20.880 in the paper is kind of old school. It has 1:33:20.920 --> 1:33:23.840 to do with, say, she wants to be called John 1:33:23.960 --> 1:33:27.360 Jacob instead, and this four weeks is so any other 1:33:27.479 --> 1:33:30.439 John Jacobs in the area can come forth and give 1:33:30.479 --> 1:33:34.160 a reason for why it's not okay, and I have 1:33:34.200 --> 1:33:36.719 a bakery and everybody knows me this way, and she's 1:33:36.760 --> 1:33:40.280 going to take advantage or whatever. It's dumb excuse, but 1:33:40.320 --> 1:33:42.760 it's it's one of them anyways. That's why they do it. 1:33:42.880 --> 1:33:46.280 Okoy bye. That is the dumbest joke you're told in 1:33:46.280 --> 1:33:50.599 a while, but it got me. Don't be mad. Don't 1:33:50.800 --> 1:33:56.760 be mad. Thank you so much, Bland. That is good information. 1:33:57.000 --> 1:33:59.120 This is what I had in mind originally with the 1:33:59.120 --> 1:34:07.559 dispatch we can't miss again. In the past twenty years, 1:34:07.560 --> 1:34:11.280 I've been looking for good dispatches. I've finally found one. 1:34:12.280 --> 1:34:16.160 Thank you, Bland. Appreciate that, all right, I appreciate anything. 1:34:16.240 --> 1:34:23.160 But yeah, let's see. Uh, I can't follow that up 1:34:23.200 --> 1:34:26.600 with one this bad I I Now, let's go to 1:34:26.640 --> 1:34:30.439 some TTS dispatches. Here's Shane with a TTS disc. We're 1:34:30.520 --> 1:34:34.200 back a plane to nowhere. Oh damn, I'm falling out 1:34:34.240 --> 1:34:37.200 of the window. Someone save me. He left out words 1:34:37.200 --> 1:34:39.280 in a script. He didn't even have all the right words. 1:34:39.280 --> 1:34:42.719 And maybe this one doesn't damn it. I didn't realize 1:34:42.760 --> 1:34:46.280 you can't preview the TTS dispatches. Whatever you do, don't 1:34:46.280 --> 1:34:49.160 play mine. Well, me and that flirty girl are going 1:34:49.160 --> 1:34:51.960 on a date, all right, thank you, Shane. So you 1:34:52.040 --> 1:34:55.280 get both sides of it with dispatches, get you get both. 1:34:55.800 --> 1:34:59.160 You get the helpful, you take the badge you do, Yeah, 1:34:59.240 --> 1:35:00.960 you get the good do you get the bad and 1:35:01.000 --> 1:35:04.040 then you you try to work them all in together, 1:35:04.680 --> 1:35:07.400 and some of them are just really bad. You know. 1:35:07.439 --> 1:35:09.880 It's been a fun watch today. As I scrolled through 1:35:09.880 --> 1:35:10.759 social this morning. 1:35:11.000 --> 1:35:11.320 What's that? 1:35:12.439 --> 1:35:16.519 We talked briefly about that jay Z concert yesterday, the 1:35:16.600 --> 1:35:18.360 one that was supposed to be Sunday night but it 1:35:18.400 --> 1:35:20.719 turned out just being revery early Monday morning. 1:35:21.080 --> 1:35:23.040 Yeah, And now three o'clock in the morning. 1:35:22.960 --> 1:35:24.920 Now that all of the people who have attended it 1:35:24.960 --> 1:35:27.679 have slept it off, the videos are starting to hit social. 1:35:28.400 --> 1:35:30.439 I didn't see many of them yesterday because all the 1:35:30.479 --> 1:35:33.160 people that went to the show got home at four. 1:35:33.000 --> 1:35:36.679 Am and went to bed. Yeah, and our old friend 1:35:36.720 --> 1:35:38.760 de roy Al was there, Oh was he? 1:35:38.840 --> 1:35:39.320 Yeah? 1:35:39.320 --> 1:35:41.519 He had he had some good videos to post. I 1:35:41.520 --> 1:35:43.880 saw the one where Eminem came out. That one was 1:35:43.880 --> 1:35:45.920 giving me the chills a little bit. I mean, he 1:35:45.960 --> 1:35:47.000 had a big show. 1:35:47.000 --> 1:35:49.280 The last one looked like the coolest one for jay Z, 1:35:49.600 --> 1:35:52.479 and it's prompted people to say that jay Z is 1:35:52.520 --> 1:35:55.360 being courted by the NFL to be the next super 1:35:55.360 --> 1:35:59.320 Bowl halftime performer, which is hilarious because he picked. Forward 1:35:59.720 --> 1:36:02.200 of people that has involved in picking the super Bowl 1:36:02.240 --> 1:36:04.840 halftime performer is led by jay Z. Be a real 1:36:04.920 --> 1:36:08.120 jeopardy situation if jay Z picked himself. This is like 1:36:08.160 --> 1:36:12.640 the cops investigating themselves the super Bowl performer version. But 1:36:14.040 --> 1:36:15.760 believe it or not, I actually think he would be 1:36:15.840 --> 1:36:17.280 He would be good at that and those shows seemed 1:36:17.320 --> 1:36:19.439 like they were probably a good time. Okay, I have 1:36:19.520 --> 1:36:21.840 to get a quick break in and then we'll do 1:36:21.960 --> 1:36:26.120 the pick aside. This one is an explosive video, not 1:36:26.360 --> 1:36:28.400 in the way of that last story, but in a 1:36:28.479 --> 1:36:31.479 totally different way, and it is lighting up the internet 1:36:31.560 --> 1:36:33.880 right now. But I want you to choose who is 1:36:33.920 --> 1:36:36.800 in the right well you pick aside. The clip that's 1:36:36.800 --> 1:36:39.800 going to start that conversation is coming up next on 1:36:39.840 --> 1:36:58.839 the News Junkie. We've had a bunch of pick asides 1:36:58.880 --> 1:37:00.840 as of late. I think they're fun. I think, you know, 1:37:00.880 --> 1:37:03.240 it's an interesting way to break things up during the show. 1:37:03.520 --> 1:37:05.479 And I was talking to some people early this morning 1:37:06.040 --> 1:37:09.400 and when I'm pitching the show or telling people what 1:37:09.439 --> 1:37:12.919 I feel about the news junkie radio show, the podcast, 1:37:12.920 --> 1:37:17.040 the live stream, I say, we'll talk about anything that's happening. 1:37:17.240 --> 1:37:20.000 I always you at like street corner radio. That's my 1:37:20.000 --> 1:37:23.400 my guiding you know, my north star. Since the very 1:37:23.439 --> 1:37:27.160 beginning of doing this show, way back when starting in 1:37:27.240 --> 1:37:33.280 West Palm on w JNO. This was twenty years ago, 1:37:33.439 --> 1:37:37.920 probably around then, starting around that time, my guiding north 1:37:37.960 --> 1:37:42.639 star for the show, for this show has been that 1:37:42.880 --> 1:37:45.960 I would say, if I could go downtown on a 1:37:45.960 --> 1:37:49.160 street corner and start talking about any of the topics 1:37:49.160 --> 1:37:51.400 that I want to talk about, would it build a crowd, 1:37:51.400 --> 1:37:54.280 would it hold the crowd? Would people be interested? And 1:37:54.439 --> 1:37:57.240 sometimes the answer is yeah, like some political stuff can 1:37:57.240 --> 1:37:59.479 do that, but mostly people want to talk about the 1:37:59.520 --> 1:38:02.000 thing that has them going that day, like it could 1:38:02.040 --> 1:38:04.479 be the bison video that the old man getting flung 1:38:04.560 --> 1:38:07.200 up in the air by the bison. Viral is a 1:38:07.280 --> 1:38:10.240 huge part of it. Hence why viral is at the 1:38:10.280 --> 1:38:13.559 center of this show. The world's most viral newsroom and 1:38:13.600 --> 1:38:15.680 all of those things. Nobody else is really trying to 1:38:15.720 --> 1:38:18.920 take that territory anyways. It's solely ours over here, so 1:38:19.479 --> 1:38:21.760 you know it's right for picking and plucking as far 1:38:21.800 --> 1:38:25.680 as I see. But since I've been doing this, I'm like, 1:38:25.920 --> 1:38:28.200 you got to talk about whatever the issues are, the 1:38:28.240 --> 1:38:30.400 things are that people care about in any given day, 1:38:30.640 --> 1:38:32.479 and then give them some stuff to break it up. 1:38:32.640 --> 1:38:35.680 If there's too much Mitch McConnell and you know, all 1:38:35.720 --> 1:38:40.479 these different political things going on, Lindsey Graham, DoD If 1:38:40.479 --> 1:38:43.439 there's too much of that in a row, people will 1:38:43.760 --> 1:38:46.400 start to get turned off. Pick a Side is a 1:38:46.439 --> 1:38:48.760 great way to just kind of throw something out there. 1:38:48.760 --> 1:38:50.880 It's a viral clip and we can all talk about 1:38:50.920 --> 1:38:55.439 who's right and who's wrong. The problem is the first 1:38:55.479 --> 1:38:58.200 pick a side theme song did not go over well. 1:38:58.800 --> 1:39:01.880 It went over as famously was the reasoning for the 1:39:01.960 --> 1:39:04.800 name of the band, like a led Zeppelin, right. It 1:39:04.920 --> 1:39:09.080 did not go over very very well. People thought that 1:39:09.200 --> 1:39:12.479 it was terrible. Those are the words that I heard terrible. 1:39:13.080 --> 1:39:16.040 So when you said them to yourself, I did not 1:39:16.200 --> 1:39:20.439 say them to myself. I wrote them down. Terrible song 1:39:20.920 --> 1:39:23.320 not going to stick to be To be fair, this 1:39:23.400 --> 1:39:29.439 is the first one. Wet and swampy me tell you 1:39:29.800 --> 1:39:33.720 take aside. I hate that it's growing on me now. 1:39:34.040 --> 1:39:37.200 But Seiling has a new pick aside theme. She said, 1:39:37.240 --> 1:39:39.840 to make it like a little more metal. I said, like, 1:39:40.040 --> 1:39:43.439 let's pick it up a little. You wanted like completely opposite. 1:39:43.479 --> 1:39:46.840 You want like a really like more hardcore manly pick 1:39:46.840 --> 1:39:49.559 aside more metal? What do you got for right? 1:40:03.760 --> 1:40:04.040 I like that? 1:40:04.120 --> 1:40:09.400 Who really held at it again? Oh you know it's crazy, 1:40:10.600 --> 1:40:13.720 I don't. They don't tell you why, so you just 1:40:13.760 --> 1:40:16.120 have to guess. And thank god I only wrote four lines. 1:40:17.040 --> 1:40:20.280 I typed that out and I was like, give me 1:40:20.320 --> 1:40:22.400 in lice, little metal thing. Let's make it pretty quick, 1:40:22.479 --> 1:40:23.640 let's have it up. 1:40:24.439 --> 1:40:27.160 And then I go to click make this, you know, 1:40:27.280 --> 1:40:30.720 create and it said it rejected me because there was 1:40:30.800 --> 1:40:32.160 copyrighted material in it. 1:40:32.600 --> 1:40:35.280 What copyright? There's only four lines in it? What you 1:40:35.320 --> 1:40:41.120 said about? I wrote, we're going on a ride. It's 1:40:41.160 --> 1:40:44.720 time to pick a side. Uh, no need to run 1:40:44.760 --> 1:40:47.519 and hide. It's time to pick a side. The no 1:40:47.640 --> 1:40:50.600 need to run and hide? I guess was enough that 1:40:52.000 --> 1:40:53.679 there was a line of a song I've never even 1:40:53.720 --> 1:40:56.280 heard of. All right, well, people, what do you think 1:40:56.320 --> 1:40:58.120 of this? Tell us if you think this is a 1:40:58.160 --> 1:41:01.080 good pick a side theme song for us?

This video is going mega viral right now. 1:41:20.439 --> 1:41:24.680 This is a guy at Jersey Mike's. Now do you 1:41:24.840 --> 1:41:28.040 support You got to pick a side here. Do you 1:41:28.120 --> 1:41:32.080 pick the side of the birthday girl or the Jersey 1:41:32.080 --> 1:41:35.639 Mike's employee. That is your decision today, friends, all right, 1:41:35.960 --> 1:41:40.439 the birthday girl or the Jersey Mike's employee. Let's watch 1:41:40.520 --> 1:41:43.320 the video in question that's getting some viral love. What 1:41:43.360 --> 1:41:45.920 you said, who are you talking to? Yeah? Who are 1:41:45.920 --> 1:41:47.200 you talking to? Yeah? 1:41:47.200 --> 1:41:50.360 I bet she won't say nothing. Now, Yeah, what you say, 1:41:50.439 --> 1:41:51.439 get the right? 1:41:52.000 --> 1:41:55.280 Please, that's what you say. No, I don't try to 1:41:55.320 --> 1:41:55.679 be nice. 1:41:55.720 --> 1:41:59.280 You said get the right. You said get the right. 1:42:00.160 --> 1:42:04.439 Hold on, hold on, hold on. They bleeped her f 1:42:04.520 --> 1:42:08.439 words very cleanly, and not his quite as much. 1:42:08.479 --> 1:42:08.599 So. 1:42:08.960 --> 1:42:11.599 Uh, first of all, see Lane, stay by the button. 1:42:11.600 --> 1:42:14.360 All right, stay by the button. I know we have 1:42:14.520 --> 1:42:19.920 like one more opportunity. But he said, uh, he said, 1:42:19.960 --> 1:42:22.559 back to what she was saying. She goes say it, 1:42:22.640 --> 1:42:24.760 say get the f out, say get the f out, 1:42:24.800 --> 1:42:27.200 say get that out. And he goes get the f out. 1:42:27.439 --> 1:42:29.400 He said, what his name was he said, I work 1:42:29.479 --> 1:42:32.080 for Jersey Mikes. He's looking directly into that kind of 1:42:32.160 --> 1:42:35.439 smart thing to do. I think it is all right, 1:42:35.680 --> 1:42:37.840 I think it is. Here's why, Sea Lane, here's why 1:42:37.880 --> 1:42:40.840 I'm already picking this guy's side. I have made the 1:42:40.880 --> 1:42:43.760 claim that we need to be more aware when people 1:42:43.800 --> 1:42:46.320 are filming us of what they're doing and what's happening, 1:42:46.560 --> 1:42:48.719 and we need to no longer talk to the person 1:42:48.800 --> 1:42:52.040 filming us and solely to the potential audience that that 1:42:52.080 --> 1:42:54.640 person is trying to get to. So you explain to 1:42:54.680 --> 1:42:56.640 them what's going on that they're not going to know 1:42:56.680 --> 1:42:59.240 outside of the context of this video. You got to 1:42:59.280 --> 1:43:02.439 go right to it and go, hey, here's the deal, 1:43:02.640 --> 1:43:05.400 here's here's what's happening right now. And you can even 1:43:05.479 --> 1:43:09.680 say click like I don't know, you say subscribe for 1:43:09.760 --> 1:43:12.559 part two, whatever you have to say. You're telling people 1:43:12.600 --> 1:43:14.840 to subscribe to her. Well I don't. Yeah, I don't 1:43:14.840 --> 1:43:16.920 want them to subscribe to her. Actually I wouldn't do that. 1:43:16.960 --> 1:43:20.400 But he's directly addressing the controversy in her camera, which 1:43:20.479 --> 1:43:23.599 I think is good. So she said say it now 1:43:23.640 --> 1:43:27.439 that we're going live here or that I'm recording, and 1:43:27.479 --> 1:43:29.640 he said, get the f out. Now, this is all 1:43:29.680 --> 1:43:32.800 about it being her birthday. We're gonna all buckle up 1:43:32.840 --> 1:43:37.000 and hope that there's not too many more curse words. Jersey, 1:43:37.360 --> 1:43:43.320 thank you. I'm gonna have to send this to you. 1:43:43.360 --> 1:43:45.040 I think I think I'm gonna have to send this 1:43:45.080 --> 1:43:50.360 to you. Is that? Okay, Pa, that's my that's my fault. 1:43:50.560 --> 1:43:54.160 That's my fault. Are people are already taking sides here, 1:43:54.280 --> 1:43:57.040 That's fine, I want you to do that. What we're 1:43:57.080 --> 1:44:01.400 going to do here is I'm going to send Celia 1:44:01.439 --> 1:44:04.719 in the video so that he could properly sense it censor. 1:44:04.880 --> 1:44:09.280 I tried to use the AI video but a video 1:44:09.320 --> 1:44:12.800 censorship thing that we have, but that wasn't successful. As 1:44:12.840 --> 1:44:15.120 you can tell, We've already had to hit the dump 1:44:15.120 --> 1:44:19.240 button twice. We don't have much more. Okay, I've got 1:44:19.760 --> 1:44:22.080 this is the full thing. Okay, this is the full thing. 1:44:22.280 --> 1:44:24.920 I'm gonna send this to you. Celan. We're gonna censor 1:44:24.960 --> 1:44:29.480 it during this break, and we'll do it without interruption 1:44:30.280 --> 1:44:32.519 at the beginning of the next segment. That gives you 1:44:32.600 --> 1:44:35.000 enough time. Right, I'm sorry to throw this at you. 1:44:35.040 --> 1:44:38.040 I didn't mean too, but I want people to be 1:44:38.080 --> 1:44:40.479 able to hear everything, and I forgot that he was 1:44:41.400 --> 1:44:43.360 cursing so much and it didn't get all picked up. 1:44:43.760 --> 1:44:45.840 I'll share something else with you in the meantime before 1:44:45.840 --> 1:44:48.799 we get ready for that Pick a Side extended version, 1:44:49.439 --> 1:44:52.360 which we'll do next, and also Jury Duty in the 1:44:52.360 --> 1:44:57.519 next segment. I am now fully enthralled with this Senate 1:44:57.600 --> 1:45:01.920 campaign that's underway. I told you about this the other day. 1:45:02.000 --> 1:45:05.040 I told you I listened to the debate between this woman. 1:45:05.120 --> 1:45:08.360 She's like a sort of mainstream Democrat named Hailey Stevens. 1:45:09.479 --> 1:45:13.679 And the guy is like a DSA like democratic socialist. 1:45:13.680 --> 1:45:17.439 He's like a socialist dude. And they're they're very very different, 1:45:17.479 --> 1:45:19.600 you know. One is like a mainstream democrat. One is 1:45:19.600 --> 1:45:23.600 like very far left wing, ver very different ideas for 1:45:23.840 --> 1:45:26.000 what they want to do for the state of Michigan. 1:45:26.880 --> 1:45:30.800 But this woman, Hailey Stevens, there's something about her delivery. 1:45:32.720 --> 1:45:35.519 She seems nice, but she seems like very much like 1:45:35.560 --> 1:45:39.000 a Saturday Night Live character. Okay, okay, I'll give you this. 1:45:39.040 --> 1:45:41.759 I'll give you this.

Let me let me do a side 1:47:21.200 --> 1:47:23.720 by side of these if you don't mind. Here's the 1:47:23.960 --> 1:47:26.439 lady who is in a parking lot yelling at somebody 1:47:26.439 --> 1:47:27.400 else saying, you're not happy. 1:47:27.479 --> 1:47:28.519 You're not happy, man. 1:47:28.760 --> 1:47:30.840 All right, you're not happy. You're not happy man. And 1:47:30.880 --> 1:47:34.439 then we have this particular lady, Haley Stevens, who's on 1:47:34.479 --> 1:47:36.360 the campaign trail right now trying to win sentence. 1:47:36.479 --> 1:47:39.200 I am going to be working on our behalf. I 1:47:39.280 --> 1:47:42.080 am going to be telling the stories on our behalf. 1:47:43.160 --> 1:47:45.840 You better believe I'm going to be doing it with 1:47:45.880 --> 1:47:48.360 a little bit of joy, a little bit of enthusiasm, 1:47:48.400 --> 1:47:50.760 a little bit of energy, and a little bit of 1:47:50.880 --> 1:47:53.840 sicket to them, because that's the Michigan way. 1:47:55.200 --> 1:48:01.040 I love this. Sticket to the bell on YouTube says, 1:48:01.120 --> 1:48:06.759 is she a girl's basketball coach on the side? Oh god, 1:48:07.280 --> 1:48:09.320 so there she is. But this is how a real 1:48:09.400 --> 1:48:13.280 person is, right. This is not like some polished character 1:48:13.960 --> 1:48:16.360 who has been put through the political machine and then 1:48:16.720 --> 1:48:20.160 plopped out the other side. That's like, here is what actually, No, 1:48:20.360 --> 1:48:23.599 this lady is I kind of like it a little bit. 1:48:23.800 --> 1:48:25.640 I want to know what you think. A little bit 1:48:25.680 --> 1:48:28.000 of sticking to him never hurt anybody, does it. 1:48:28.120 --> 1:48:30.479 A little bit of energy and a little bit of 1:48:30.560 --> 1:48:33.559 sticket to him because that's the Michigan way. 1:48:33.920 --> 1:48:39.120 Yeah, it is quick, breaking a character so hard like that, 1:48:39.320 --> 1:48:42.960 stick it to him the Michigan way. When we come back, 1:48:43.120 --> 1:48:46.040 we'll do the properly censored. I'll stop playing with fire, 1:48:46.120 --> 1:48:49.120 the properly censored pick a side. We'll get back into 1:48:49.120 --> 1:48:51.040 that and we'll do Jerry duty because that's coming up 1:48:51.080 --> 1:49:10.040 next on the news chunk Kie an announcement at the 1:49:10.040 --> 1:49:11.680 top of the hour is on the way when we 1:49:11.760 --> 1:49:14.040 kick off the Power Hour. I try to give you 1:49:14.080 --> 1:49:17.000 a pick aside, but I really gave too much credit 1:49:17.000 --> 1:49:19.719 to the AI censorship tool that we use for the show. 1:49:20.400 --> 1:49:23.479 And there's like random f bombs here and there, and 1:49:23.520 --> 1:49:27.920 so after two dumps, meaning of the censorship variety, like 1:49:27.960 --> 1:49:30.720 we have what do we have twelve seconds or so? 1:49:31.560 --> 1:49:36.160 It's ten we have ten seconds of like censorship dumps 1:49:36.160 --> 1:49:38.840 that we can use on the show and each one 1:49:38.880 --> 1:49:40.360 of them. We could do like we could do half 1:49:40.439 --> 1:49:43.639 or a hole. So usually just dump five seconds when 1:49:43.640 --> 1:49:46.040 the curse word went by, and then there's another one. 1:49:46.080 --> 1:49:48.000 You're like, ah, I dump another one. But when we 1:49:48.120 --> 1:49:51.479 run out then it becomes a major issue. So we 1:49:51.800 --> 1:49:55.200 can't risk the license on this fine radio station. So 1:49:55.280 --> 1:49:56.800 I said, let me just send it over to sea 1:49:56.840 --> 1:49:58.680 line and have him do it. So we'll do that 1:49:58.720 --> 1:50:00.880 in a second. You need some more time. I got 1:50:00.880 --> 1:50:04.360 start jury duty real quick, start jury udy infinite two Now, okay, perfect, 1:50:04.439 --> 1:50:06.320 I'll do jury duty in the meantime, here we go. 1:50:06.720 --> 1:50:08.880 Court is now in session, so put your phone down 1:50:08.920 --> 1:50:11.120 and pay attention before we call the bailiff over to 1:50:11.120 --> 1:50:11.920 with your ass. 1:50:11.960 --> 1:50:15.280 You're knowing jury duty with the news Junkie.

That's the way to get there. 1:50:46.240 --> 1:50:49.280 So thank you for that. Appreciate you. I'm going to 1:50:49.360 --> 1:50:51.519 have this file from Seeland ready in just a second, 1:50:51.680 --> 1:50:54.200 but in the meantime, I'll give you a jury duty story. 1:50:54.680 --> 1:50:57.880 And this is kind of crazy to me. A same 1:50:58.040 --> 1:51:01.920 sex couple, a gay couple in Canada is suing the 1:51:01.960 --> 1:51:05.880 surrogate mother of their son. Now, the reason for this 1:51:06.120 --> 1:51:10.320 is just unbelievable to me, But this is an ugly 1:51:10.479 --> 1:51:12.880 feud that has broken out that's caused a bit of 1:51:12.880 --> 1:51:16.280 a well a giant legal issue. Really, here's the story. 1:51:16.360 --> 1:51:19.120 A same sex couple in Canada, A gay couple who 1:51:19.160 --> 1:51:22.760 is using a surrogate mother of their son for trying 1:51:22.760 --> 1:51:26.320 to have a child two years later after they were 1:51:26.360 --> 1:51:30.640 going to be doing this. They'ressuing her because she refused 1:51:30.640 --> 1:51:35.000 to abort the fetus. All right, this is crazy. In 1:51:35.040 --> 1:51:39.800 the lawsuit filed in Ontario, Canada, the parents allege the 1:51:39.880 --> 1:51:43.640 Ontario based surrogate failed to keep them apprized about the 1:51:43.680 --> 1:51:47.840 baby's health, put the child at risk, caused emotional distress, 1:51:48.160 --> 1:51:52.559 and violated their confidentiality. I mean, that's a little weird 1:51:52.960 --> 1:51:56.040 because to me, surrogacy is great. It could be a 1:51:56.160 --> 1:51:59.400 valuable thing to help families out. The people who do 1:51:59.439 --> 1:52:01.720 it could be it could be really an amazing thing 1:52:01.760 --> 1:52:05.800 for you to gift to another person. But they weren't parents. 1:52:06.200 --> 1:52:08.680 You're not a parent until you have a kid. She 1:52:08.840 --> 1:52:10.880 was the one who was pregnant with a child, right. 1:52:10.920 --> 1:52:12.920 The woman was pregnant with a child, because that's how 1:52:12.960 --> 1:52:16.160 that works, and she was going to give the child 1:52:16.200 --> 1:52:19.120 away to this couple to make it so they can 1:52:19.200 --> 1:52:21.200 live out their dream of having a baby, which they 1:52:21.240 --> 1:52:25.400 can't do without a woman. And that's all well and good, 1:52:25.880 --> 1:52:28.799 but there's the framing of this. It's like the parents, well, 1:52:28.840 --> 1:52:30.600 you know, these are the people who wanted to be 1:52:30.640 --> 1:52:33.600 the surrogate parents. Maybe the statement of claim does not 1:52:33.640 --> 1:52:36.800 specifically mention the couple's request in June twenty twenty four 1:52:37.160 --> 1:52:40.320 to terminate the pregnancy at twenty two weeks. How many 1:52:40.400 --> 1:52:43.160 months is that? That's pretty far along right there? Right? 1:52:45.000 --> 1:52:47.719 Six almost six months, five months, five and a half months, 1:52:47.960 --> 1:52:50.800 so she was five and a half months along the 1:52:50.840 --> 1:52:53.880 surrogate was and then they said, nah, we want you 1:52:53.920 --> 1:52:56.360 to abort it, and she goes, no, I'm not going 1:52:56.400 --> 1:52:58.479 to abort the child. Is I don't want to do that, 1:52:59.040 --> 1:53:01.320 but that's what they cut what the couple wanted. That's 1:53:01.320 --> 1:53:03.719 when everything changed. They wanted her to get an abortion. 1:53:04.160 --> 1:53:08.040 The surrogate insisted more tests be conducted, and after specialists 1:53:08.080 --> 1:53:10.360 indicated that the baby was a healthy child with a 1:53:10.400 --> 1:53:13.600 relatively minor birth defect, the couple agreed to let the 1:53:13.640 --> 1:53:17.360 pregnancy continue, but tensions escalated once again after the woman 1:53:17.400 --> 1:53:20.240 insisted on having a home birth as was agreed upon 1:53:20.280 --> 1:53:23.400 in their contract, and later filed a small claims lawsuit 1:53:23.400 --> 1:53:26.759 asking the parents to reimburse out of pocket expenses related 1:53:26.800 --> 1:53:30.360 to the pregnancy. Shortly after she filed the small claim suit, 1:53:30.360 --> 1:53:33.000 which has since gone to arbitration, the woman said she 1:53:33.040 --> 1:53:35.920 found out she was being sued. The Ontario woman told 1:53:35.920 --> 1:53:38.400 the National Post she first became interested in surrogacy after 1:53:38.400 --> 1:53:41.360 seeing two close friends struggle to conceive. I work in 1:53:41.400 --> 1:53:43.880 an awful place, said the surrogate. I see the worst 1:53:43.960 --> 1:53:46.840 humans in the world at the corrections officer job that 1:53:46.880 --> 1:53:50.439 she has, So she said she wanted to do something positive, 1:53:50.720 --> 1:53:53.160 and she said it started out positive, but then there 1:53:53.280 --> 1:53:55.920 was something that said that the fetus has or is 1:53:56.040 --> 1:54:00.360 likely to have a genetic, chromosomal or other abnormality or defect. 1:54:01.080 --> 1:54:02.920 So they wanted her to get an abortion, and she 1:54:03.120 --> 1:54:05.800 was like, no, I don't want to do that. The 1:54:05.800 --> 1:54:08.880 surrogate was in the Dominican Republic at the time officiating 1:54:09.000 --> 1:54:13.640 an international wrestling competition. I did not expect that to 1:54:13.680 --> 1:54:16.439 come along. She was less left devastated in a mess 1:54:16.479 --> 1:54:19.760 after receiving the letter. She ultimately decided she would have 1:54:19.760 --> 1:54:21.559 agreed to have an abortion if the baby had no 1:54:21.640 --> 1:54:24.719 chance of survival after birth, but was not comfortable terminating 1:54:24.760 --> 1:54:28.640 the pregnancy over what she considered largely a cosmetic defect. 1:54:29.080 --> 1:54:33.240 The parents then came to Toronto and they had a 1:54:33.280 --> 1:54:35.880 doctor said the baby will have no problem beyond a 1:54:35.960 --> 1:54:39.640 cleft lip. That was it. That was the reason why 1:54:39.720 --> 1:54:43.000 they wanted to eject this baby over like a cleft palate. 1:54:43.560 --> 1:54:45.560 Cleft lip they said, other than that, that won't be 1:54:45.600 --> 1:54:47.640 an issue. And also, as far as I know, I'm 1:54:47.760 --> 1:54:50.360 certainly no expert on this topic, but I believe the 1:54:50.440 --> 1:54:55.120 surgeries for cleft palates have become amazing and their success. 1:54:55.560 --> 1:54:59.000 It's something that's easily fixable. I think, yeah, that is 1:54:59.120 --> 1:55:01.920 not something that you, I think somebody should ever be 1:55:02.000 --> 1:55:04.240 really considering terminating a pregnancy over. 1:55:04.360 --> 1:55:06.240 It was kind of crazy that the couple was like, whoao, 1:55:08.440 --> 1:55:10.440 we only want a normal one. Let's flush this one 1:55:10.480 --> 1:55:11.120 and try again. 1:55:11.840 --> 1:55:14.720 Yeah, we'll take a normal one. But she said the 1:55:14.960 --> 1:55:18.240 baby had some breathing problems upon delivery, but soon recovered 1:55:18.240 --> 1:55:22.520 when they administered oxygen. Then they She said she asked 1:55:22.520 --> 1:55:24.440 the couple to reimburse her for ten thousand dollars in 1:55:24.480 --> 1:55:27.720 outstanding expenses, including lost income from work during the pregnancy 1:55:28.280 --> 1:55:31.320 and contributions to her pension plan that she missed. She 1:55:31.360 --> 1:55:34.400 didn't hear anything back from them, and so they started 1:55:34.440 --> 1:55:36.720 to go at it. The lawsuit does not claim a 1:55:36.720 --> 1:55:39.760 specific amount of damages, but the surrogate says the plaintiffs 1:55:39.760 --> 1:55:42.480 have been indicated they're seeking about six hundred thousand dollars. 1:55:42.880 --> 1:55:44.440 She says, you know I'm a single mom. You know 1:55:44.520 --> 1:55:46.520 I have a daughter, and you're basically suing me from 1:55:46.520 --> 1:55:51.080 my house. It seems very s word. It's just awful. 1:55:51.160 --> 1:55:53.600 I feel used. So they're suing her after all this, 1:55:53.640 --> 1:55:55.520 She goes, you didn't even want this baby. You guys 1:55:55.560 --> 1:55:57.320 try to get me to get rid of the cleft 1:55:57.320 --> 1:56:02.160 palate baby back and forth, a bioethics professor at the 1:56:02.240 --> 1:56:05.000 University of Calgary. So the case underscore is that surrogates 1:56:05.040 --> 1:56:08.520 are vulnerable under Canadian law, noting that it appears the 1:56:08.560 --> 1:56:11.560 parents in this case, the parents are punishing the woman 1:56:11.600 --> 1:56:15.240 for allegedly contravening their agreement. Moreover, they earlier sought to 1:56:15.360 --> 1:56:17.880 end the fetus's life for a medical condition that can 1:56:17.920 --> 1:56:22.000 be completely overcome by surgery and therapy. That's I would 1:56:22.000 --> 1:56:23.880 think about that. If the surrogate can tell you to 1:56:23.920 --> 1:56:26.720 do that kind of stuff, like the cleft palate baby 1:56:26.760 --> 1:56:31.880 needs to be eliminated, that's crazy that the surrogate would 1:56:31.880 --> 1:56:34.160 have any any say over that to begin with. I 1:56:34.240 --> 1:56:36.600 was wondering when you. 1:56:38.760 --> 1:56:41.800 Brought this up, if they do have any parts of 1:56:41.800 --> 1:56:46.480 the agreement for surrogacy that cover abortion. And I guess 1:56:46.600 --> 1:56:48.760 she did say she would agree to have one if 1:56:48.800 --> 1:56:51.400 the child was unlikely to survive after birth. 1:56:51.720 --> 1:56:52.040 M hm. 1:56:52.320 --> 1:56:54.600 But because this was what she felt to be a 1:56:54.640 --> 1:56:57.000 largely cosmetic birth effect, even though they said there was 1:56:57.000 --> 1:57:00.360 a minor heart condition involved. It was minor heart condition, 1:57:00.800 --> 1:57:02.600 uh huh, that's why she refused. 1:57:03.120 --> 1:57:05.920 So there was some genetic abnormalities, but not enough to 1:57:05.960 --> 1:57:09.120 make it so this child couldn't live like a nice 1:57:09.160 --> 1:57:12.040 rewarding life. Yes, right, Like, sometimes if you find out 1:57:12.040 --> 1:57:14.000 that this child is going to be so disabled that 1:57:14.080 --> 1:57:15.640 it's not going to be able to have the fulfilling 1:57:15.720 --> 1:57:19.000 life and maybe needs the assistance of humans or machines 1:57:19.000 --> 1:57:20.640 for the rest of their life, you have a different 1:57:20.680 --> 1:57:22.960 conversation about that. You have a different conversation based on 1:57:23.000 --> 1:57:25.760 your morals. But in this case, it was like the 1:57:25.800 --> 1:57:28.360 baby could be fine, and so they got into it 1:57:28.400 --> 1:57:31.680 back and forth. Very interesting. They're suing her. They're suing 1:57:31.680 --> 1:57:36.280 the surrogate mom for six hundred thousand dollars in this case. 1:57:36.800 --> 1:57:39.320 We'll see what you think, this says. The unusual sequence 1:57:39.360 --> 1:57:42.360 of events highlights the vulnerable position of Canadian surrogates, who 1:57:42.400 --> 1:57:45.160 are in high demand but legally barred from charging commercial fees. 1:57:45.480 --> 1:57:47.880 Unlike their counterparts in the US, they can only be 1:57:48.000 --> 1:57:52.560 reimbursed for received expenses. Most get pregnant simply to help others, 1:57:52.600 --> 1:57:55.440 but sometimes fail to get their cost paid or literally 1:57:55.520 --> 1:57:58.760 left holding the baby when the parents walk away. About 1:57:58.760 --> 1:58:01.600 one hundred families are looking for for a Segur curroguate 1:58:01.640 --> 1:58:04.920 for every one, willing woman ready to provide the service. 1:58:05.240 --> 1:58:07.240 So there you go. Tell us what you think. Send 1:58:07.280 --> 1:58:09.760 a dispatch over at the news Junkie dot com. I 1:58:09.840 --> 1:58:13.040 have the now censored clip for our pick aside.

And we're 1:58:54.600 --> 1:58:56.560 sure this is not going to result in us losing 1:58:56.560 --> 1:58:59.960 our jobs now, right? Pretty sure? Okay? That's good.

I understand 1:59:13.280 --> 1:59:14.880 the need for ads, but your show is the only 1:59:14.880 --> 1:59:17.080 one I have this issue with. It's YouTube.

Okay, quick announcements for you before we 2:00:50.640 --> 2:00:53.600 do the pick aside here that Selanda is finally properly 2:00:53.720 --> 2:00:57.720 censored in our Power Hour. I was talking a little 2:00:57.760 --> 2:01:00.960 bit today, strangely enough, about the history of this show. 2:01:01.560 --> 2:01:04.680 You know, the news Junkie as that as that product 2:01:04.760 --> 2:01:08.400 under that name started under a program director called Brian 2:01:08.600 --> 2:01:14.360 Mudd on w JNO, and I've been featured back on 2:01:14.400 --> 2:01:16.480 that station I think at some point in time. But 2:01:17.320 --> 2:01:20.280 great people over there gave me a shot. They said 2:01:20.320 --> 2:01:23.480 what can you do? And I said, I'll tell you what. 2:01:23.520 --> 2:01:25.560 I'll give you a demo. And I gave him a 2:01:25.600 --> 2:01:27.960 demo of what the first show would be. And I 2:01:27.960 --> 2:01:30.520 got into a fight with the mayor in one segment 2:01:30.600 --> 2:01:33.800 and was in a screaming match with her. I had 2:01:34.000 --> 2:01:38.120 interviewed one of Osama Bin Lawden's kids, I believe in 2:01:38.160 --> 2:01:41.720 another segment and we were talking about being Osamavan Lawden's 2:01:41.800 --> 2:01:45.080 child and the other segment have no idea what it 2:01:45.160 --> 2:01:47.200 was that was back when you burn it on a CD. 2:01:47.480 --> 2:01:49.560 So I burned the demo on the CD for the 2:01:49.600 --> 2:01:52.120 program directors, go over your speed dial for Osama bin 2:01:52.160 --> 2:01:54.680 Lund's kids. I don't know how of this happened. I 2:01:54.680 --> 2:01:59.360 have no idea it's true, true story though, And Brian 2:01:59.440 --> 2:02:02.840 Mudd goes, I got your demo. I want you to 2:02:02.960 --> 2:02:06.320 come in and talk about this, and he goes, this 2:02:06.360 --> 2:02:09.480 is you, like you did this and he's like, this 2:02:09.600 --> 2:02:12.880 is crazy. Let's just start. Let's just start you this weekend. 2:02:12.960 --> 2:02:15.720 Let's just do the show. Just say air this this weekend. Okay, fine, 2:02:16.440 --> 2:02:19.160 And that's where the show started on w jannel. And 2:02:19.200 --> 2:02:21.080 obviously I chased my tail around. And I have been 2:02:21.120 --> 2:02:23.360 working in radio for a very very long time, but 2:02:23.600 --> 2:02:26.400 now the goal is clear and focused and has never 2:02:26.440 --> 2:02:30.280 been so clear, and focusing on viral news and trying 2:02:30.280 --> 2:02:33.160 to aspire to do great talk radio every single day 2:02:33.200 --> 2:02:36.160 on the show and bringing that in front of as 2:02:36.200 --> 2:02:39.520 many people as possible. Why because I think you people 2:02:39.960 --> 2:02:42.720 will be super supportive. We have sponsors on the show 2:02:42.800 --> 2:02:45.040 and they're great, but I don't want to chase my 2:02:45.160 --> 2:02:48.120 tale around all day long trying to go after sponsors 2:02:48.120 --> 2:02:50.480 and keeping them happy. I want to be beholden to 2:02:50.520 --> 2:02:53.920 the audience. That's why we go to you for subscriptions 2:02:53.920 --> 2:02:56.200 at the newsjunky dot com. It's the direct way you 2:02:56.240 --> 2:02:59.320 can support us. That's where your money goes. It goes 2:02:59.360 --> 2:03:01.640 to us, you know, to help for all the expensive 2:03:01.640 --> 2:03:05.360 things around here for the show. So my idea is like, 2:03:05.440 --> 2:03:07.360 let's get this show in front of as many people 2:03:07.360 --> 2:03:10.320 as possible. I think people who love radio will love 2:03:10.480 --> 2:03:13.160 the show. And that turned out to be successful for us. 2:03:13.160 --> 2:03:16.640 And you know, about ten years ago, they lit up 2:03:16.680 --> 2:03:20.240 the show in my old market of West Palm Beach, 2:03:20.640 --> 2:03:25.000 put us on the great stations, Real Radio WZZR and 2:03:25.160 --> 2:03:29.760 Real Radio one on one seven WCZR. We've had a long, 2:03:30.200 --> 2:03:34.160 great relationship with them, and we pretty much just took 2:03:34.200 --> 2:03:42.000 over Florida rapid fast. We're our overall net in Florida 2:03:42.200 --> 2:03:45.680 is basically everywhere. And then we started getting traction in 2:03:45.800 --> 2:03:48.400 New York in the state of New York, and we 2:03:48.400 --> 2:03:51.120 were on a couple of stations. I think in Rochester. 2:03:51.240 --> 2:03:54.120 We've been on different stations in Rochester over the years. 2:03:55.400 --> 2:03:57.680 Now I think we're on WHAM, which is an awesome, 2:03:57.760 --> 2:04:05.120 amazing station there. Yes, the program directors and the folks 2:04:05.120 --> 2:04:08.760 in charge in Rochester are some of the biggest supporters 2:04:08.760 --> 2:04:11.720 of the show and have helped us out to spread 2:04:11.760 --> 2:04:15.480 this show more than almost anybody else. I previously had 2:04:15.480 --> 2:04:18.120 a boss who was trying her damnedest not to let 2:04:18.120 --> 2:04:20.080 me spread the show, which was my vision for doing 2:04:20.120 --> 2:04:23.360 all this, and stopping me at every single measure where 2:04:23.360 --> 2:04:26.040 I would make some progress, I would get a program 2:04:26.080 --> 2:04:28.960 director who I built a relationship with and said, hey, 2:04:29.000 --> 2:04:30.680 I would love the show to be on here too, 2:04:31.000 --> 2:04:33.280 and then they would shut it down and not even 2:04:33.320 --> 2:04:37.240 inform me that that happened, which is just unbelievably irritating 2:04:37.600 --> 2:04:40.680 and offensive in so many ways. But I won't go 2:04:40.760 --> 2:04:44.840 on about that too long. So we spread all over 2:04:44.880 --> 2:04:48.600 Florida in New York and had these program directors on 2:04:48.680 --> 2:04:52.680 board who had the same vision of getting the show 2:04:52.840 --> 2:04:56.120 in front of more people. And we've been on most 2:04:56.120 --> 2:04:59.720 of the types of stations that will have a show 2:04:59.760 --> 2:05:02.520 like this News Chunkie. We've been on most of the 2:05:02.560 --> 2:05:05.680 types of stations, you know, whether it be the freaking Dallas, 2:05:05.760 --> 2:05:10.160 Texas or there's only so many stations, there's only one 2:05:10.200 --> 2:05:12.240 other station really like this that we haven't been on, 2:05:12.360 --> 2:05:16.200 and that's the bone in Tampa. Shouts out to your 2:05:16.200 --> 2:05:19.040 friends over there, they should have us on. But it's 2:05:19.080 --> 2:05:23.000 a different company, right, It's not iHeartRadio, It's that's Cox Broadcasting. 2:05:23.880 --> 2:05:26.680 So the plan is to try to get in front 2:05:26.680 --> 2:05:29.080 of other formats, and you've got to have really brave 2:05:29.320 --> 2:05:33.120 program directors to say, let's take this show and let's 2:05:33.160 --> 2:05:35.760 put it on a news talk format. Let's do that, 2:05:36.440 --> 2:05:39.320 Let's let's see if it works. Let's do that. Because 2:05:39.560 --> 2:05:44.520 iHeartRadio is hundreds and hundreds of those radio stations, and 2:05:44.600 --> 2:05:46.520 so I said, if I'm going to sign this deal, 2:05:47.160 --> 2:05:49.600 I want us to be able to be autonomous from 2:05:49.600 --> 2:05:52.040 the company. I want us to be able to be 2:05:52.160 --> 2:05:55.880 beholden to the audience and try to build something brand 2:05:55.960 --> 2:05:59.960 new and broadcasting here, different than what everybody else is doing. 2:06:01.160 --> 2:06:05.640 But I want to know that iHeart really buys into 2:06:05.840 --> 2:06:07.360 the plan as well, and is. 2:06:07.280 --> 2:06:07.640 That we do. 2:06:07.680 --> 2:06:09.720 And we've got some people here. I got off the 2:06:09.760 --> 2:06:16.000 phone with Bob and Jeremy this morning, and they're amazing. 2:06:16.160 --> 2:06:20.800 There are people who love radio, who love broadcasting, and 2:06:20.880 --> 2:06:24.600 they're part of the next steps for the news Junkie, 2:06:24.680 --> 2:06:29.480 which is starting to spread the show. So it's time 2:06:29.520 --> 2:06:31.920 to tackle a new state, folks. What do you say? 2:06:31.960 --> 2:06:35.040 We got Florida and New York on the lockdown pretty much. 2:06:35.840 --> 2:06:40.600 I'd like to welcome in our brand new friends in Louisiana. 2:06:41.400 --> 2:06:51.000 That's right, what better place, everybody, Louisana.

So 2:07:07.120 --> 2:07:10.040 good to have you on board with us. The bye, 2:07:10.120 --> 2:07:12.960 you junkie, You bet your ass. We are moving into 2:07:13.080 --> 2:07:19.920 Louisiana with a great parastations in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, News 2:07:20.000 --> 2:07:23.960 Radio eleven fifty and ninety eight point seven FM. We're 2:07:24.080 --> 2:07:26.280 so happy to be on with them and starting to 2:07:26.320 --> 2:07:30.600 spread this show even more. And then, you know, if 2:07:30.640 --> 2:07:36.280 that wasn't enough, the Cajun takeover continues with News Talk 2:07:36.480 --> 2:07:42.400 ninety nine to five w rn O in New Orleans. 2:07:44.760 --> 2:07:49.040 You know what that means, folks, that means for everyone. 2:07:49.240 --> 2:07:51.240 Don't you be promising to take us to New Orleans 2:07:51.280 --> 2:07:54.200 anytime soon? Because they're still waiting on those SunFest tickets. 2:07:54.440 --> 2:07:57.200 I'm telling you, they'll they'll, they'll take us there. But 2:07:58.520 --> 2:08:01.200 Bama Jeremy believe in the show and they are the 2:08:01.240 --> 2:08:05.920 first of many announcements like this, Louisiana coming on board 2:08:05.920 --> 2:08:10.040 with stations in Baton Rouge and New Orleans, Louisiana, the 2:08:10.040 --> 2:08:13.480 two big markets in the state who are picking up 2:08:13.600 --> 2:08:16.880 the show. That means that when you send in a dispatch, 2:08:17.520 --> 2:08:20.080 when you give stuff, when you do all of these 2:08:20.120 --> 2:08:24.040 different things. Now it's getting to an even larger audience 2:08:24.040 --> 2:08:27.320 of people. Now the folks in Louisiana are on board 2:08:27.520 --> 2:08:31.000 the Florida takeover. It took a while, but you know, 2:08:31.040 --> 2:08:32.760 we did it. We did it, and we did it 2:08:32.800 --> 2:08:36.360 with bells on and then New York just started to 2:08:36.400 --> 2:08:40.520 welcome us in with ts and the amazing people up 2:08:40.520 --> 2:08:43.280 there from iHeart who supported the show when not a 2:08:43.320 --> 2:08:45.520 lot of other people did. The people who have supported us. 2:08:45.520 --> 2:08:47.560 And by the way, West Palm, that market has stood 2:08:47.560 --> 2:08:51.840 by us so incredibly bravely over the course of this 2:08:51.960 --> 2:08:54.960 show and really went out on a limb to keep 2:08:55.080 --> 2:08:57.600 us there and made sure that they telled us like 2:08:57.680 --> 2:09:00.280 we love the show, we love what you're doing. So 2:09:00.400 --> 2:09:04.560 now we're moving over to Louisiana. With Baton Rouge and 2:09:04.800 --> 2:09:10.760 w RNO News Talk nine in Louisiana jumping on the 2:09:10.800 --> 2:09:14.800 show bandwagon. I think that's awesome. There's a lot lot 2:09:14.840 --> 2:09:18.440 more of this to come, and could we be live 2:09:18.600 --> 2:09:24.280 on Bourbon Street. Yes, I'm not. 2:09:25.880 --> 2:09:26.560 Breakfast. 2:09:27.080 --> 2:09:30.840 Come on, Selian's literally going there in a couple of months, 2:09:30.880 --> 2:09:32.840 so you'll be the first person on the ground in 2:09:32.880 --> 2:09:35.760 New Orleans. I'm going to make my Superdrivers put it on. 2:09:38.440 --> 2:09:45.480 I cannot wait until that spreads number one. But absolutely positively, 2:09:46.240 --> 2:09:49.840 I'm so excited about post. I know I've said this 2:09:49.920 --> 2:09:53.000 about SunFest for a millennia, I know, and when West 2:09:53.040 --> 2:09:56.720 pom Beach, but and going to New York too, But 2:09:57.320 --> 2:10:00.640 I want to do a show from the French Quarter. 2:10:00.920 --> 2:10:02.680 Oh god, we got to do it. Show. 2:10:02.800 --> 2:10:06.040 I have been to all these places independently, none of 2:10:06.040 --> 2:10:07.320 them with you, none of them. 2:10:07.400 --> 2:10:11.560 Yeah. Well, I mean I'm going to the Keys. Strangely enough, 2:10:12.320 --> 2:10:14.640 while I'm there, maybe there'll be some other discussions going 2:10:14.680 --> 2:10:17.520 on about the show and the Keys. I know there's 2:10:17.560 --> 2:10:21.080 a lot of talk right now. And the one market 2:10:21.160 --> 2:10:25.840 really outside of Tampa that we haven't worked our way 2:10:25.840 --> 2:10:29.000 into in Florida is Miami, and there are very high 2:10:29.120 --> 2:10:33.720 level Miami conversations going on right now, and that it 2:10:33.760 --> 2:10:35.720 could open the door to the keys. So Seeland and 2:10:35.760 --> 2:10:37.520 I got to get out there a little bit, right 2:10:37.560 --> 2:10:41.640 We gotta press the flesh, start start talking to some 2:10:41.760 --> 2:10:45.360 people and picking up some accents, I guess, to see 2:10:45.400 --> 2:10:47.480 where we can go with this. But that's super exciting. 2:10:47.680 --> 2:10:51.000 I'm thrilled about it. The show continues to spread, and 2:10:51.440 --> 2:10:52.880 the pace of that is going to get a lot 2:10:52.920 --> 2:10:57.280 more rapid, folks. So there you go. Suggestion you should 2:10:57.320 --> 2:10:58.920 add a tab on the news junki dot com with 2:10:59.000 --> 2:11:02.600 all your stations. That's already in the works. I'm waiting 2:11:02.640 --> 2:11:06.120 for some more stuff to line up here, which will 2:11:06.160 --> 2:11:10.160 make sense to you, probably in the next couple of months. 2:11:11.120 --> 2:11:14.680 But I mean, it's pretty cool because I have a 2:11:14.720 --> 2:11:17.000 connection with New Orleans. I've been there a million times. 2:11:17.080 --> 2:11:18.920 I love New Orleans. Love it, love it, love it, 2:11:18.960 --> 2:11:21.240 love it. Almost got a house there at one point 2:11:21.240 --> 2:11:23.800 in time, right before the pandemic, Courtney and I were like, 2:11:23.840 --> 2:11:27.840 we're gonna get a place the problem. Yeah, we're gonna 2:11:27.840 --> 2:11:30.560 get a second place. And look at you in New Orleans. 2:11:30.560 --> 2:11:33.120 Where we're going to it? Not not now, I mean Maybes. 2:11:33.160 --> 2:11:37.120 I don't know. The problem is the market there is crazy, 2:11:37.640 --> 2:11:41.360 and they got those shotgun houses. You know, a shotgun house, 2:11:41.960 --> 2:11:44.640 it's like the house has like you can see through 2:11:44.640 --> 2:11:46.360 from the front to the back. Basically it's like one 2:11:46.360 --> 2:11:48.280 hallway right down the middle. It's how a lot of 2:11:48.320 --> 2:11:53.120 houses in New Orleans were built. And uh, even like 2:11:53.160 --> 2:11:56.360 a small one is expensive. Although I'm learning the same 2:11:56.480 --> 2:11:59.760 is true for Key West because I just watched a video. 2:12:00.080 --> 2:12:03.520 These people live in a shotgun house in Key West. 2:12:03.560 --> 2:12:06.320 I think they're rented. They live in a shotgun house 2:12:06.360 --> 2:12:08.800 in Key West, and I said, this is a cool 2:12:08.800 --> 2:12:12.240 neighborhood where they are. And the house that they live 2:12:12.240 --> 2:12:15.960 in in Key West forty eight hundred dollars a month. 2:12:16.080 --> 2:12:21.200 My gosh, it was twelve hundred square feet sea ling 2:12:22.320 --> 2:12:25.200 forty eight hundred dollars a month. Was this something you 2:12:25.200 --> 2:12:27.960 were looking at to like rent for Airbnb? Or we 2:12:28.080 --> 2:12:30.280 were just trying to learn about the keys before we 2:12:30.320 --> 2:12:32.040 go down there, so it don't sound like too much 2:12:32.040 --> 2:12:34.560 of a dummy. That's the goal. You go there a bunch, 2:12:34.560 --> 2:12:36.080 you get to know the people, you make sure you 2:12:36.080 --> 2:12:38.800 don't screw some stuff up. And we were talking to 2:12:38.880 --> 2:12:40.960 him He goes, if you ever need to know how 2:12:41.000 --> 2:12:43.320 to say any of the parishes of the cities, because 2:12:43.360 --> 2:12:45.840 you email me and I said, oh, that's good. I 2:12:45.880 --> 2:12:47.760 said that's good. I said, you know why that's good, 2:12:48.040 --> 2:12:50.240 said Seilan. And I run into this all the time. 2:12:50.600 --> 2:12:53.560 We'll have somebody try to pronounce a road near where 2:12:53.560 --> 2:12:57.440 the show is based in Orlando, and the traffic people 2:12:57.480 --> 2:12:59.960 who aren't necessarily from here, We'll mention one of the 2:13:00.200 --> 2:13:03.360 roads and butcher the name and people will go nuts. 2:13:03.600 --> 2:13:05.320 So I had this happen to me in different markets too. 2:13:05.360 --> 2:13:07.600 I've had this is a big People get mad when 2:13:07.600 --> 2:13:10.440 you sound like a carpetbagger you don't know the places. 2:13:10.440 --> 2:13:12.160 So he said, reach out to me and contact me. 2:13:12.200 --> 2:13:14.600 I go, that's good because I think Seiland told me 2:13:14.640 --> 2:13:17.879 one time the Tampa people who are doing the traffic 2:13:18.480 --> 2:13:21.280 they had looked for a YouTube version of how to 2:13:21.320 --> 2:13:23.920 pronounce one of the things. I think somebody gave them 2:13:24.000 --> 2:13:24.960 a YouTube version. 2:13:25.440 --> 2:13:29.160 Yeah, something like that, like the YouTube version was the 2:13:29.200 --> 2:13:32.560 YouTube version was wrong? Because yeah, the people that put 2:13:32.600 --> 2:13:35.400 out content on YouTube that are all like, how do 2:13:35.440 --> 2:13:36.160 you pronounce this? 2:13:36.360 --> 2:13:37.240 How do you say that? 2:13:38.000 --> 2:13:40.360 They they are trying to flood their channels with so 2:13:40.440 --> 2:13:43.120 much content that that that it's just inevitable that they 2:13:43.160 --> 2:13:46.840 get some sort of pop from it. And sometimes they 2:13:46.840 --> 2:13:48.920 are wrong, But we don't. 2:13:48.720 --> 2:13:51.960 Want to do that. I'd rather say nothing and then 2:13:52.160 --> 2:13:53.920 get in there and say things you don't know. You 2:13:53.960 --> 2:13:58.560 start pronouncing things wrong. That's immediate carpetbaggers, and then they'll 2:13:58.560 --> 2:14:00.760 tell us get out of here, get out of here. 2:14:00.800 --> 2:14:03.800 We don't want you here. So we hope uh, they 2:14:03.840 --> 2:14:06.320 welcome us in. And what we're gonna do now is 2:14:06.360 --> 2:14:08.920 take a quick break. Then we'll finally do that pick 2:14:08.920 --> 2:14:11.240 aside that Seelane censored. It's sitting in front of me. 2:14:11.320 --> 2:14:13.520 It's ready to go. As the Power Hour rolls on, 2:14:13.960 --> 2:14:17.080 we'll do the Jersey Mike's pick aside. Then we'll push 2:14:17.080 --> 2:14:19.080 into the end of the show today. Thank you so 2:14:19.160 --> 2:14:21.720 much for all your support. That's coming up next on 2:14:21.840 --> 2:14:40.880 the News Junkie, it's time for pick a side here 2:14:41.200 --> 2:14:44.080 with a brand new theme song. This one went over 2:14:44.640 --> 2:14:47.880 better than the last one. Just to refresh your memory. 2:14:47.880 --> 2:14:51.040 Now that Selane has the video censored and our jobs 2:14:51.040 --> 2:15:04.880 are secure, let's do another pick aside. Yeah, that's right 2:15:05.440 --> 2:15:08.880 back to Jersey Mikes. That's where we go. Jersey Mike's 2:15:08.920 --> 2:15:10.880 a little pricey, by the way, I don't know if 2:15:10.880 --> 2:15:13.040 that's one of the reasons why this thing popped off. 2:15:13.040 --> 2:15:16.120 And it is a sub above, so I know I'm 2:15:16.160 --> 2:15:20.200 gonna need to compensate for that. And just recently Celan 2:15:20.920 --> 2:15:25.160 was I think pushed pushed Chick fil A out of 2:15:25.360 --> 2:15:29.160 the top spot for the best reviewed or like, you know, 2:15:29.320 --> 2:15:34.800 the most loved by their fans. Restaurant like Jersey Mike's 2:15:34.840 --> 2:15:38.560 has supporters and fans. Jersey Mikes is a little expensive though. 2:15:38.640 --> 2:15:40.200 We try to get some wraps the other night, and 2:15:40.200 --> 2:15:42.440 I think they were about eighteen dollars for a wrap, 2:15:42.440 --> 2:15:48.680 which was a little you were door dashing this though, right, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, 2:15:48.720 --> 2:15:51.080 I want no No, that was through the Jersey Mikes app. 2:15:51.160 --> 2:15:52.960 Cool he was trying to get. We just ended up 2:15:52.960 --> 2:15:56.080 making them ourselves. But uh, let's go into a Jersey 2:15:56.080 --> 2:15:59.760 Mike's and your pick, aside is choosing between the Jersey 2:15:59.800 --> 2:16:03.440 Mikes employee in the birthday girl, those are the two 2:16:03.480 --> 2:16:07.680 people battling here. Let's dive in finally for a censored adverse. 2:16:10.080 --> 2:16:11.040 Yeah who you talking to? 2:16:11.560 --> 2:16:14.520 Yeah, I bet you won't say nothing.

He's 2:16:38.040 --> 2:16:39.959 talking directly to the camera. He knows this woman is 2:16:39.959 --> 2:16:42.520 going to try to videotape this and make him look 2:16:42.840 --> 2:16:44.879 dumb or get him fired. He's like, here's my name 2:16:45.280 --> 2:16:48.080 on this employee. Though he might get in trouble for 2:16:48.200 --> 2:16:49.640 saying the curse word, I hope he does. 2:16:50.000 --> 2:16:55.920 Thank you because it's my birthday and I asked. 2:16:55.720 --> 2:17:05.680 You lose your job standing at the door, come on right, 2:17:05.840 --> 2:17:07.000 not saying thank. 2:17:07.000 --> 2:17:10.279 You, and whatch you lose your job?

This time I get treated on my 2:17:12.360 --> 2:17:13.879 birthday at Jersey Night. 2:17:15.200 --> 2:17:20.640 Okay, that's a little brutal to say after your birthday. 2:17:21.320 --> 2:17:23.360 What I'm gathering from this is she tried to go 2:17:23.400 --> 2:17:26.200 in and get a discount for her birthday that they 2:17:26.560 --> 2:17:30.680 couldn't really give her, and then she got mad. She 2:17:30.760 --> 2:17:32.760 was like, it's my birthday. Can I get a discount 2:17:32.800 --> 2:17:35.640 from Jersey Mike's. And then when he was she was 2:17:35.680 --> 2:17:37.440 pushing and pushing for this and he was saying no. 2:17:37.959 --> 2:17:40.920 She then pulls out the camera after he's like, get 2:17:40.959 --> 2:17:42.440 the f out of here because he's had enough of 2:17:42.480 --> 2:17:43.160 this woman. 2:17:43.800 --> 2:17:50.119 Thank you, keep going, and you're gonna have a whole lawsuit. 2:17:50.160 --> 2:17:51.320 You got the right whole. 2:17:51.160 --> 2:17:57.400 Laws, Yeah, lawsuit for what lady. He might he might 2:17:57.400 --> 2:17:59.440 not be looking that great with the cursing behind the 2:17:59.480 --> 2:18:02.440 counter age Jersey Mikes, and somebody might clutch some pearls 2:18:02.440 --> 2:18:06.280 and fire him over that. But what are you going 2:18:06.360 --> 2:18:10.480 to sue him for not giving you a birthday sub? 2:18:11.080 --> 2:18:14.840 Is this the level of entitlement that is spreading around 2:18:14.959 --> 2:18:18.320 right now? Is this the level of entitlement? Not only 2:18:18.440 --> 2:18:22.200 is the customer always right? Birthday girl, double right right? 2:18:22.240 --> 2:18:25.200 I want I want a free ass sub and I 2:18:25.240 --> 2:18:27.480 want it on my birthday. And don't you dare be 2:18:27.560 --> 2:18:28.240 angry about this? 2:18:28.480 --> 2:18:30.800 It looks like if you I mean, I'm assuming that 2:18:30.879 --> 2:18:33.680 she just went into the Jersey mic store and asked 2:18:33.720 --> 2:18:37.879 for her birthday sub without even doing any due diligence. 2:18:38.440 --> 2:18:41.480 Looks like they do have some sort of deal. What's 2:18:41.520 --> 2:18:45.439 the deal that you go to their your my MIC's account. Yeah, 2:18:45.520 --> 2:18:48.440 you can start earning Mike's shout out, buy an ad please. 2:18:48.600 --> 2:18:52.440 You can start earning shore points, as in the Jersey Shore, 2:18:54.920 --> 2:18:57.520 so you earn subs with shot points. They got the 2:18:58.160 --> 2:18:59.720 You can use the app. That's probably the app you 2:18:59.800 --> 2:19:01.520 were when you were trying to do it. And it 2:19:01.560 --> 2:19:05.600 says birthday rewards. Celebrate with a sub, join our email 2:19:05.680 --> 2:19:09.120 club and enjoy a free birthday sub with the purchase 2:19:09.240 --> 2:19:10.560 of a regular sub. 2:19:10.360 --> 2:19:14.200 In the past year. All right, It sounds like if 2:19:14.240 --> 2:19:15.800 you purchased the sub of the past year, you can 2:19:15.840 --> 2:19:18.640 get the birthday sub and or free sub with a 2:19:18.720 --> 2:19:22.440 regular sub. Her man was with her, it's not his birthday. 2:19:23.520 --> 2:19:26.000 Maybe she couldn't prove it was her birthday. There's more 2:19:26.040 --> 2:19:27.520 in this. Let's get the end of it and see 2:19:27.520 --> 2:19:29.120 if it changes our mind, and we'll see who's side 2:19:29.120 --> 2:19:29.440 we pick. 2:19:31.040 --> 2:19:35.320 If you don't need no money, yeah, a whole lossuit. 2:19:35.440 --> 2:19:41.039 Thank you? Get again. 2:19:42.160 --> 2:19:43.280 You should know what we order. 2:19:43.320 --> 2:19:44.760 I don't remember facing. 2:19:45.720 --> 2:19:47.000 You don't remember faces? 2:19:47.040 --> 2:19:49.119 What kind of sounds are you? You don't is your 2:19:49.160 --> 2:19:51.080 manager right here? She came back. 2:19:53.520 --> 2:20:00.520 Okay, so you're the manager. So yeah, corporate will be called. Okay, yeah, 2:20:00.680 --> 2:20:01.280 you can give me the. 2:20:01.320 --> 2:20:06.000 Number, give give us. 2:20:07.640 --> 2:20:11.880 You know, she sounds like Sherry Shepherd. She does a 2:20:11.879 --> 2:20:13.680 little bit, Yeah I can, but not like it, not 2:20:13.720 --> 2:20:16.760 like just like regular Sherry Shepherd. I'm talking like Sherry 2:20:16.760 --> 2:20:20.880 Shepherd when she played Tracy Jordan's wife in thirty Rock. 2:20:21.560 --> 2:20:25.800 Yeah. Yeah, I could hear that. She's think she thinks 2:20:25.840 --> 2:20:29.520 she's right. I think, yeah, I think so, unless you're 2:20:29.560 --> 2:20:32.200 gonna have to apologize and correct yourself. So maybe you're 2:20:32.280 --> 2:20:34.959 down that path. But when I hear this, I hear 2:20:34.959 --> 2:20:36.840 a woman who's so confident that she's in the right, 2:20:36.959 --> 2:20:39.160 and it sounds like, for whatever reason, he didn't want 2:20:39.200 --> 2:20:41.400 to give her the deal. I'm guessing that there was 2:20:41.520 --> 2:20:43.920 much more to this that fired him off. That's always 2:20:43.959 --> 2:20:47.400 the case. But it's still a couple more seconds. You 2:20:47.640 --> 2:20:48.199 very lucky. 2:20:48.280 --> 2:20:52.199 Let me just tell you that, very lucky, very lucky, 2:20:52.600 --> 2:20:54.640 very very. 2:20:55.520 --> 2:20:56.760 You're not going to do anything? 2:20:58.080 --> 2:21:01.160 Yeah you really? 2:21:01.240 --> 2:21:01.320 What? 2:21:03.320 --> 2:21:04.200 Okay? Thank you? 2:21:05.320 --> 2:21:07.959 Okay. I don't know what we've started this or what 2:21:08.080 --> 2:21:11.120 came before this. We never see her, is that her? 2:21:11.200 --> 2:21:13.440 That's her man? Okay, we see her man at the end, 2:21:13.680 --> 2:21:16.160 or what happens like in between the cuts of this video. 2:21:16.360 --> 2:21:21.200 But yeah, I don't understand what the big deal is 2:21:21.440 --> 2:21:22.440 at the moment right now. 2:21:22.720 --> 2:21:25.720 Yeah, she is so upset at this guy for not 2:21:25.760 --> 2:21:28.320 giving her some sort of deal on her birthday. But 2:21:28.400 --> 2:21:30.640 I don't imagine that this guy's in the business of 2:21:30.800 --> 2:21:33.440 just being mean to people on their birthdays and not 2:21:33.520 --> 2:21:35.520 giving them the deal that he's supposed to give them. 2:21:35.600 --> 2:21:37.400 I'm gonna give them the benefit of the doubt, and 2:21:37.440 --> 2:21:39.760 I'm gonna think that this lady, like a lot of 2:21:39.720 --> 2:21:42.280 other crazy bitches that go into these places and freak 2:21:42.280 --> 2:21:44.840 out and have a meltdown, probably freaked out and have 2:21:44.879 --> 2:21:47.800 a meltdown, was rude as hell to this person. And 2:21:47.840 --> 2:21:50.240 she's saying over and over and over again. Then she 2:21:50.320 --> 2:21:52.760 gets him to go back to the cash register and 2:21:52.800 --> 2:21:54.959 he's gonna pretend like he doesn't know her and just 2:21:55.120 --> 2:21:58.200 do the order, and she's still like, well, ying. But 2:21:58.560 --> 2:22:02.240 there's a level of customer bullying that happens in these cases. 2:22:02.280 --> 2:22:05.720 I can smell it from a mile away. I feel 2:22:05.760 --> 2:22:08.600 like this is what happened in this case. I feel 2:22:08.600 --> 2:22:11.879 like this was a customer bullying. The person was like, 2:22:11.879 --> 2:22:14.120 if I complain enough, I'm used to getting my way. 2:22:14.480 --> 2:22:17.000 I'm used to going into Applebee's or Chili's and at 2:22:17.000 --> 2:22:18.960 the end I just say the food sucked, and they 2:22:18.959 --> 2:22:20.360 don't want to deal with me as a pain in 2:22:20.400 --> 2:22:23.040 the ass, so they give me the thing comped. You know, 2:22:23.160 --> 2:22:25.480 this is sort of what's going on. It's the annoying customer. 2:22:26.320 --> 2:22:29.199 So I'm sorry. I'm always going to side with the employee. 2:22:29.480 --> 2:22:32.720 I'm sorry I picked the employee, even though I wish 2:22:32.760 --> 2:22:35.840 you wouldn't have cursed. I wish you wouldn't have stooped 2:22:36.320 --> 2:22:39.039 to the level of cursing at her, because he's going 2:22:39.080 --> 2:22:40.959 to have some problems with that, even if he is 2:22:41.040 --> 2:22:44.640 the manager. I choose the employee. How about you, Celing, 2:22:45.080 --> 2:22:47.920 I kind of side with the employee here. You don't 2:22:48.040 --> 2:22:51.240 just get to go in and get the free birthday 2:22:51.240 --> 2:22:53.640 stuff if it's not their thing. Also, somebody on the 2:22:53.680 --> 2:22:55.800 texting service said she doesn't need to be mad at 2:22:55.800 --> 2:22:57.440 the guy. She used to be mad at her man 2:22:57.520 --> 2:23:00.600 for taking her to Jersey Mics for her birthday hoping 2:23:00.760 --> 2:23:05.760 for a discount. That is true. Yeah, so you let 2:23:05.840 --> 2:23:08.440 us know. You pick a side, folks, that's what this 2:23:08.600 --> 2:23:11.560 is about. And do you choose the Jersey, Mike Sky 2:23:11.879 --> 2:23:14.320 or the Birthday Girl. On the way out, we'll get 2:23:14.320 --> 2:23:18.560 to your emails and your dispatches, and then we'll wrap 2:23:18.600 --> 2:23:22.039 everything up with the final dispatches stories that didn't make 2:23:22.080 --> 2:23:24.160 the cut. And today I learned to wrap everything up 2:23:24.240 --> 2:23:27.560 for a say wrap up, to cleose everything down for 2:23:27.640 --> 2:23:30.720 a share of the show Tuesday. That's coming up next 2:23:30.760 --> 2:23:49.080 in the news Chunky, wrap it up. It's been fun, 2:23:49.120 --> 2:23:50.360 it's been a good time. But we only have a 2:23:50.400 --> 2:23:53.400 couple of minutes left before we wrap everything up here 2:23:53.480 --> 2:23:56.160 on the show. Let's see if there's anything that we 2:23:56.280 --> 2:24:00.200 missed worth going over. We'll get into your final dispatch. 2:24:00.560 --> 2:24:03.400 I did see Snopes has now gone to the level 2:24:03.440 --> 2:24:07.080 of tackling the Mitch McConnell thing. Is this Mitch McConnell 2:24:07.080 --> 2:24:10.840 photo real? There's no evidence of AI despite claims it 2:24:10.959 --> 2:24:14.240 was the photo of him in the hospital, Mitch McConnell 2:24:14.240 --> 2:24:17.119 with his wife, and Snopes is landing on like there's 2:24:17.160 --> 2:24:20.320 no evidence that it's AI. They didn't say it was real, 2:24:20.360 --> 2:24:23.200 because you can't really confirm that something's real so much, 2:24:23.240 --> 2:24:26.440 but they utilized all the different AI tools and showed 2:24:26.879 --> 2:24:29.879 that it didn't look like AI. Still I think, and 2:24:29.920 --> 2:24:31.160 I wish I would have gotten to more of your 2:24:31.160 --> 2:24:33.400 responses on this on ways that you can prove that 2:24:33.440 --> 2:24:36.320 you're still alive in twenty twenty six, but we'll have 2:24:36.400 --> 2:24:37.680 to do that for tomorrow. 2:24:37.840 --> 2:24:41.440 So weird how Snopes is probably one of the older 2:24:41.480 --> 2:24:46.080 websites that a lot of us, you know, still read occasionally. 2:24:46.560 --> 2:24:48.480 But they just started like a fun little thing about 2:24:48.600 --> 2:24:52.119 urban myths and now have somehow morphed that into being 2:24:53.040 --> 2:24:55.320 like a litmus test on what's real and what's fake. 2:24:55.360 --> 2:24:58.600 Like if something is fake, you're gonna believe it, right. Yeah, 2:24:58.760 --> 2:25:00.880 I think they got a pretty good name for themselves. 2:25:00.920 --> 2:25:02.760 Some people see some bias here and there, but I 2:25:02.800 --> 2:25:06.280 think generally they're pretty well received. Here's another thing it's 2:25:06.320 --> 2:25:11.040 worth mentioning. A fitness influencer is under fire after running 2:25:11.160 --> 2:25:14.000 a five K while at a World Cup game by 2:25:14.120 --> 2:25:16.760 standing in his seat and doing circles over and over 2:25:16.800 --> 2:25:19.680 and over again until he got to the five k mark. 2:25:20.000 --> 2:25:22.160 He completed it before the game ended, but was bumping 2:25:22.160 --> 2:25:25.400 into people around him the entire time. His whole mission 2:25:25.440 --> 2:25:28.720 was running a five K in his own seat at 2:25:28.720 --> 2:25:31.360 the World Cup. These are the people who should be 2:25:31.400 --> 2:25:34.560 publicly executed by the way right, the tickets to the 2:25:34.560 --> 2:25:38.720 World Cup not cheap, and you decided to take that apart. 2:25:38.840 --> 2:25:42.600 You take that opportunity to run a fake ass five 2:25:42.680 --> 2:25:47.360 ko standing on his seat like spinning around everybody around 2:25:47.440 --> 2:25:53.119 you paid for a seat. Stop please stop. Our world 2:25:53.240 --> 2:25:56.040 is better than this. Our world has to be better 2:25:56.040 --> 2:25:58.520 than this. And let's see if there's anything else worth 2:25:58.520 --> 2:26:02.440 mentioning here. Oh, they have revealed the first look at 2:26:02.440 --> 2:26:11.920 the Charlie Kirk monument. I don't know. I don't know this. 2:26:12.680 --> 2:26:17.440 Whoever does these bronze statues is so I don't know. 2:26:17.520 --> 2:26:21.920 It's not it's not fantastic. Now you'll see it out there. 2:26:22.000 --> 2:26:25.560 There's a statue going up of Charlie Kirk here, it says, 2:26:25.720 --> 2:26:30.440 handcrafted by renowned Italian sculptor Sergio Fernani. The planned a 2:26:30.520 --> 2:26:32.760 veiling of the Charlie Kirk Marmon Monument of Times Score 2:26:32.800 --> 2:26:35.120 LASO required permit. The sculptor has stated he will not 2:26:35.160 --> 2:26:38.160 seek one. The project has no official endorsement from Turning 2:26:38.200 --> 2:26:41.200 Point USA or Kirk's family. But the guy made the statue, 2:26:41.200 --> 2:26:43.680 it's just it's just kind of kind of ugly. It 2:26:43.680 --> 2:26:50.400 doesn't look great. Let's can't play that. Uh, that'll have 2:26:50.440 --> 2:26:53.400 to do. A new broadcasting guidelines ahead of these next 2:26:53.440 --> 2:26:57.720 summer Olympics say that the Olympics broadcasters can no longer 2:26:57.800 --> 2:27:01.119 show the female competitors from certain angles, and then they 2:27:01.160 --> 2:27:05.000 show the angles that you're supposed to avoid, like from 2:27:05.000 --> 2:27:08.240 behind butt shots in their bikinis, or like track and 2:27:08.320 --> 2:27:12.840 field bending over. I guess the guidelines highlight shots for 2:27:12.920 --> 2:27:16.959 broadcasters to avoid when the Olympics returns next time. 2:27:17.080 --> 2:27:18.800 Does that mean it'll just be easier to be a 2:27:18.959 --> 2:27:23.000 cameraman for the men's one. You know, you don't have to. 2:27:22.440 --> 2:27:24.440 Worry about the rules. Yeah, maybe they don't want the 2:27:24.440 --> 2:27:26.640 cross shots either. I don't know what they're looking for, 2:27:26.720 --> 2:27:29.520 but we'll find out. We have time for a final dispatch, 2:27:29.600 --> 2:27:31.720 No we don't. Unfortunately we don't. It's time to get 2:27:31.760 --> 2:27:33.520 the hell out of here. Let's do today. I learned 2:27:33.560 --> 2:27:35.960 the following information may make you feel smarter, but will 2:27:36.000 --> 2:27:39.360 not actually increase your IQ. So don't get cocky. 2:27:40.080 --> 2:27:40.680 Now it's done. 2:27:40.920 --> 2:27:44.720 What we call today, it is today. 2:27:44.720 --> 2:27:49.680 I learned for a Tuesday, July fourteen to twenty twenty six. 2:27:50.320 --> 2:27:52.240 An email coming in real quick. I'm a Cajun A 2:27:52.240 --> 2:27:55.040 true Cajun from South Louisiana Baba living from Florida for 2:27:55.080 --> 2:27:58.160 the past five years. I'm original from Huma, which is 2:27:58.200 --> 2:27:59.840 now our south of New Orleans. But I could tell 2:27:59.879 --> 2:28:02.920 you what the Louisiana people in our southern hospitality think. 2:28:03.440 --> 2:28:05.480 They will be very welcoming to you. Let me know 2:28:05.520 --> 2:28:07.640 if you need any advice on what's good to eat, 2:28:07.800 --> 2:28:11.840 says this emailer. All right, thank you for that. Appreciate that. 2:28:13.040 --> 2:28:15.040 A lot of other questions coming in. We don't have 2:28:15.040 --> 2:28:17.400 time to get to them, unfortunately. I mean, just you 2:28:17.400 --> 2:28:20.959 know what I'll do, I'll mark this as unread. Otherwise 2:28:21.000 --> 2:28:25.400 I'll totally forget mark as unread. Isn't that an option? 2:28:25.760 --> 2:28:26.000 Yeah? 2:28:26.520 --> 2:28:29.200 Okay, maybe not right now, we'll get out of here. 2:28:29.240 --> 2:28:35.080 Here we go today. Learned before the Black Plague, Before 2:28:35.120 --> 2:28:39.280 the Black Plague, everybody remembers that one women brewed as 2:28:39.360 --> 2:28:41.760 you remember it. But yes, I wasn't alive. Women brewed 2:28:41.800 --> 2:28:44.199 the majority of ale and ran the majority of ale 2:28:44.280 --> 2:28:48.280 houses in England. Actually, ale wife was one of the 2:28:48.280 --> 2:28:50.760 first ways they referred to people who made beer. A 2:28:50.840 --> 2:28:54.240 woman that keeps an ale house also some synonymous with 2:28:54.240 --> 2:28:56.560 the word brewster, which I used to call them back then, 2:28:56.680 --> 2:29:00.000 oh like punky brewster. Yeah, ale wife is now commonly used, 2:29:00.040 --> 2:29:02.680 and translations of ancient text to refer to a woman 2:29:02.720 --> 2:29:06.280 who brewed and sold ale, dating back to the beginning 2:29:06.280 --> 2:29:10.720 of recorded history. Antony learned these guys ready. 2:29:11.200 --> 2:29:16.320 Mus, that's right, mused the van Mus one of fifty 2:29:16.480 --> 2:29:20.680 well no at a zero five hundred thousand euro lawsuit 2:29:20.760 --> 2:29:21.600 against Nesley. 2:29:22.120 --> 2:29:24.600 And when they got that sweet sweet Nestley money over 2:29:24.640 --> 2:29:27.920 the lawsuit, they donated one hundred percent of the proceeds 2:29:27.959 --> 2:29:30.440 to a charity. They didn't want to make the Nestley 2:29:30.560 --> 2:29:33.680 cash in a bad way. So there you go. Thank 2:29:33.720 --> 2:29:34.920 you so much, Frank and I with us.
