Speaker 1: How is everybody doing on a Monday? Not bad?
Speaker 2: How are you doing?
Speaker 3: Uh?
Speaker 1: Okay, better, I'm done, I'm better. Whatever's going around, I'm
Speaker 1: just gonna tell you stay as far away from it
Speaker 1: as you can. It is not a good time. It
Speaker 1: is as bad as one would think. And I've heard
Speaker 1: like a lot of people saying, I don't know if
Speaker 1: I got the flu or whatever. I mean, I still
Speaker 1: sound sick. I think a bit. You can still hear
Speaker 1: it in my voice.
Speaker 4: The allergens and the all of a sudden it's eighty
Speaker 4: degrees and then thirty something degrees. So I can completely
Speaker 4: understand why your body is confused.
Speaker 1: I mean, other than getting a quick walk every day
Speaker 1: and going out barely here and there, I mostly have
Speaker 1: just been.
Speaker 2: Kind of just just hanging out.
Speaker 1: I've most been staying inside where the only allergens I
Speaker 1: got to dodge or the dog and the cat. But
Speaker 1: that is a serious mission in and of its really. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I kids one of the very very together. It's pretty
Speaker 1: easy to dodge your cat. Your cat.
Speaker 2: Your cat just kind of hides half the time. It's
Speaker 2: not untrue, Yeah, it's not untrue.
Speaker 1: All right, we got a lot to get to today,
Speaker 1: as always come hang out with us on the show.
Speaker 2: How do you join us?
Speaker 1: Well, as I said, record a dispatch over at the
Speaker 1: neewsjunkie dot Com.
Speaker 2: Right now, let's.
Speaker 1: Put our ears on the ground, our fingers on the pulse,
Speaker 1: let's see what's happening in this great, big, wide world
Speaker 1: of ours.
Speaker 2: And we go to well the Golden Globes.
Speaker 1: Everybody, yes, yes, didn't see a second of it. Well,
Speaker 1: nobody saw this sea laning. Nobody saw what you're about
Speaker 1: to see after you're You're not just the only one
Speaker 1: who's hearing this for the first time. Almost nobody saw
Speaker 1: this because it was censored on the Golden Globes. That's
Speaker 1: what they're doing. The man is holding people down at
Speaker 1: censoring folks over there.
Speaker 2: What did Snoop Dogg say?
Speaker 1: What did get bleeped out that Snoop Dogg said at
Speaker 1: the Golden Globes, let's lose it in.
Speaker 5: You all the winners, but the real winner. What was
Speaker 5: he presenting?
Speaker 1: He said, I'm high as an MF for right now,
Speaker 1: which surprise I never questioned when it's him, like, I'm like,
Speaker 1: he probably is, Yeah, I mean yeah.
Speaker 4: The man successfully smoked a blunt at the Super.
Speaker 6: Bowl at the super Bowl at a white house. I
Speaker 6: think it's I mean yeah.
Speaker 1: And I feel like you can just if you're a
Speaker 1: Snoop Dogg, you could just do it. You know, when
Speaker 1: you're a celebrity, they just let you do things.
Speaker 2: I would be surprised I've heard that before. I was surprised.
Speaker 2: It's weird that I've heard like almost those exact words.
Speaker 6: You just yeah, I'd be surprised if super Snoop Dogg
Speaker 6: showed up not high to somewhere.
Speaker 7: You know, he's showing up high.
Speaker 4: But it is the smoking right before he goes on
Speaker 4: stage that everyone's like, is he doing it?
Speaker 7: Does he have a cloud that is trailing him as
Speaker 7: a local in the stage right?
Speaker 1: Yeah, he's like the kid from Peanuts, a little little
Speaker 1: little green cloud behind it. He goes over, he's giving
Speaker 1: out the Podcasts Award and he's like, everybody's a winner, nah,
Speaker 1: and then he just looks out. He's like, I am so.
Speaker 2: But the real winner.
Speaker 1: He's trying to read it. Y'all have me here too,
Speaker 1: damn long. The winner is good. Hang yeah, good, hang
Speaker 1: with Amy Pohler. I no garbage, absolute garbage. How did
Speaker 1: we not even get considered We're the number one podcast
Speaker 1: in an entire state in the United States of America.
Speaker 2: True, we're not.
Speaker 1: Even in the same breath as these people. The Hollywood
Speaker 1: folks look down their noses at this tiny little news
Speaker 1: junkie show over here.
Speaker 2: Nobody's interested, you know what it is.
Speaker 7: Florida was very interested, and that's why I were number one.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, in California. Apparently not a single one of
Speaker 1: these celebrities was rocking a news junkie shirt or something.
Speaker 6: I'll tell you what though, they didn't even have a
Speaker 6: podcast category at the Golden Globes until they had enough
Speaker 6: celebrities with podcasts to give the Golden Globes too. They're
Speaker 6: not gonna give it Golden Globes to Sea Lane. Let
Speaker 6: me be the only real person on a planet Earth
Speaker 6: for you.
Speaker 1: These podcasts awards that they give away have nothing to
Speaker 1: do with podcasting and everything to do with getting celebrities
Speaker 1: together so you can have a big celebrity event. That's
Speaker 1: what they are. Our own company, I love them, They're great.
Speaker 1: Buy their stock. iHeartRadio. Our own damn company does the
Speaker 1: same stuff. We throw a podcast awards event, one of
Speaker 1: the biggest ones every single year. You know, how many
Speaker 1: iHeartRadio podcasts win our own awards like two all right,
Speaker 1: like the Breakfast Club and whatever is coming out of
Speaker 1: New York Elvis Duran and the Zoo or whatever they're
Speaker 1: they're gonna win some some side awards and everything else
Speaker 1: is gonna be about getting the celebrities there. It's nothing
Speaker 1: to do with the art of podcasting if you can
Speaker 1: say that, but I think you can. Congratulations and he
Speaker 1: how to Amy Pohl. Yeah, yo one, you beat us
Speaker 1: fare and Square.
Speaker 6: There's something nice about probably like being able to beat
Speaker 6: your ex.
Speaker 2: I sure just publicly beat your ex at something.
Speaker 1: SmartLess Yes, SmartLess was also up for the Best Podcast
Speaker 1: of the Golden Globes, the first time they've ever done this,
Speaker 1: and Amy Poehler being the X of what's his name
Speaker 1: Willarnette will Arnette is she won? She won. She bested
Speaker 1: him on this front. Although the guys on SmartLess have
Speaker 1: made quite a bit of dough process, so everybody's all right.
Speaker 2: I think they're doing okay all there.
Speaker 4: Something else that won was marijuana because Snoop Dogg has
Speaker 4: been smoking weed for decades now and he was still
Speaker 4: so high that he had to say it.
Speaker 2: On the microphone.
Speaker 4: Yeah, you know it says something Snoop Dogg is how old?
Speaker 1: Fifty something? No, WHOA, I can't take that. Don't tell
Speaker 1: me he's fifty four, fifty four, he's fifty four years old.
Speaker 2: He's bad, guys.
Speaker 1: I think Snoop Dogg the government might want to grab
Speaker 1: him for a little while.
Speaker 2: Him and Lil Wayne.
Speaker 1: I think we need a new MK Ultra and we
Speaker 1: need Lil Wayne and Snoop Dogg because this is showing
Speaker 1: you the effects of like thirty and forty years of
Speaker 1: pretty intense marijuana smoking, and like the federal government, because
Speaker 1: it's been illegal, hasn't been able to do these studies.
Speaker 1: Now there are, They're on the forefront here, they are
Speaker 1: doing it right now.
Speaker 4: And they both have led two very different lives. I mean,
Speaker 4: Snoop Dogg is BFF with Martha Stewart. Snoop Dogg is
Speaker 4: hosting Olympic events.
Speaker 1: I can understand Snoop Dogg. That's one thing that I
Speaker 1: tend to give him on the prosumn Snoop Yeah, I mean,
Speaker 1: I love Lil Wayne. I think Lil Wayne is probably
Speaker 1: one of the greatest rappers of all time, and it
Speaker 1: was really fun to see him live but Lil Wayne
Speaker 1: when he's talking hails jam what like a little alien
Speaker 1: or something like like Marvin the Martian with a joint
Speaker 1: in his hand. So I kind of love that about him.
Speaker 1: But anyway, smoking is coming back. I see that in
Speaker 1: a broad daylight happening in front of us. I don't
Speaker 1: know if you saw this or just a cigarette the
Speaker 1: whole damn thing. I talked the other day about about
Speaker 1: Dave Chappelle and his new stand up where he tried
Speaker 1: to keep a cigarette lit the whole time unsuccessfully, and
Speaker 1: at the Golden Globes, Sean Penn, who's reached certainly, I
Speaker 1: don't give an f age, just lit up a cigarette
Speaker 1: at the table and just starts puffing on us.
Speaker 2: You know what I did right.
Speaker 6: Before I went to bed last night, watched what NICKI
Speaker 6: Glazer's monologue because I remember a bunch of Sean Penn
Speaker 6: jokes like she basically was just roasting doing the roast
Speaker 6: thing on everybody in the thing. That Leonardo DiCaprio joke hilarious.
Speaker 1: I want to get to her in a second in
Speaker 1: her performance and what we think about that. But he
Speaker 1: just lights up a cigarette in the middle of this venue.
Speaker 1: I know, there are some rules about being on stage
Speaker 1: and smoking cigarettes. Yeah, so mean Dave Chappelle can do it. Yeah,
Speaker 1: But this is an effort to bring us back to
Speaker 1: the days when people were just smoking amongst us, smoking
Speaker 1: amongst the rest of us.
Speaker 6: I think I think it goes back to that quote
Speaker 6: that you were quoting earlier, like when you're a celebrity,
Speaker 6: they let you do what you want.
Speaker 1: They do. Sean Pen just does it and he's.
Speaker 7: Like, yeah, camera Pen lighting up the square, please.
Speaker 1: Yeah, take this dart out of my cold, dead hand.
Speaker 1: And nobody's gonna do anything. Nobody's gonna do anything. And
Speaker 1: we're going back to these days. These are the days.
Speaker 1: We're going back to when you would go into the
Speaker 1: Applebee's and there was like a partition that wasn't even
Speaker 1: going all the way to the room.
Speaker 6: So that used to drive my mom nuts. It was like,
Speaker 6: not only do I want non smoking, I want to
Speaker 6: sit the farthest from the smoking people because the difference
Speaker 6: often is that what we're looking at right now.
Speaker 1: It's like a partition. There's a plight, there's like holes
Speaker 1: in the windows, and the smoke is going from one
Speaker 1: place to the next. We are headed back folks, this
Speaker 1: is what's happening. Do you want this world where smoking
Speaker 1: comes back into vogue? Yeah, where the smokers can crawl
Speaker 1: out of the shadows and openly puff on their cigarette.
Speaker 7: There's only five of us left. I'm pretty sure.
Speaker 1: Now that I'm not a member of the crew, and
Speaker 1: it's solely Sabrina left over. My interest in fighting for
Speaker 1: this this minority group has drained entirely, more so than
Speaker 1: any other minority group. It's just completely drained. I'm not
Speaker 1: here to fight for the smokers, but I see it
Speaker 1: coming back.
Speaker 2: Sound like you are.
Speaker 1: I see it coming back, right, Okay.
Speaker 4: Why do you smell cigarette either on someone or the
Speaker 4: whiff that first light?
Speaker 1: Right?
Speaker 7: Do you hate it?
Speaker 1: Or? Like I remember, I'll tell you, when I smell
Speaker 1: a cigarette, or when I look at somebody like Cheanpenn
Speaker 1: smoking a cigarette, it almost never entices me to want
Speaker 1: to smoke. It's usually the clue people doing it in movies.
Speaker 4: That's not untrue, because there's so much cigarette smoking these days.
Speaker 1: Yeah, they're they're a TV They're bringing it back in
Speaker 1: TV shows and movies a little bit too. And it
Speaker 1: is like when you just see something bring it to
Speaker 1: the cartoons, where Fred and Marty it's coming back. Do
Speaker 1: we want this everybody? Do we want to mainstream cigarette
Speaker 1: smoking again? We worked all the smokers out. We told
Speaker 1: them you can't even smoke in front of the restaurants.
Speaker 1: Now you gotta go to like this. You basically have
Speaker 1: to in all aspects of life. You have to go
Speaker 1: to like in uh Atlanta's airport, the very famous yellow
Speaker 1: room where you can set in there.
Speaker 2: Sad and get cancer ward moist.
Speaker 7: Yeah, like, you can't even ash a cigarette. It kind
Speaker 7: of just like.
Speaker 4: Sticks together and you look at everyone else and wonder like,
Speaker 4: are you the same age as me?
Speaker 7: Or you've just been smoking longer?
Speaker 1: It's coming back. Sean Penn just openly smoking at the
Speaker 1: Golden Glows.
Speaker 4: He's the group chat because it is actually coming back
Speaker 4: in crazy ways.
Speaker 1: Show up that that that that's a crime.
Speaker 2: What's happening? Hang on, I'll pull this.
Speaker 7: I'm he's an adult.
Speaker 4: He's an adult and he can make the choices that
Speaker 4: he'd like to make.
Speaker 1: He's not making Your dog is smoking.
Speaker 2: Now, This is how far smoking is.
Speaker 7: How cool Carl looks.
Speaker 2: Carl only looks cool for two reasons. He looks like
Speaker 2: Elton John. If it were a dog.
Speaker 1: One Carl in the photograph that we're all looking at
Speaker 1: here Sabrina's tiny little dog barely dog territory looks cool
Speaker 1: because he has sunglasses on number one with a cigarette
Speaker 1: in his mouth, and number two, if his paws were
Speaker 1: not crossed like this, he looks like he's like, he's
Speaker 1: so fancy.
Speaker 4: He's like, you know, the only thing that some of
Speaker 4: dogs takes.
Speaker 6: Over the dirty mark Tavy not make the photo not.
Speaker 7: The only thing that is unreal in the photo is
Speaker 7: the cigarette.
Speaker 4: Yeah, that boy loves him a pair of sunglasses and
Speaker 4: we'll keep them on his face.
Speaker 1: That's because we've found out is Carl's true ages nine
Speaker 1: hundred and seventeen years old, and he has no idea
Speaker 1: the glasses are on him right now. He's just wandering
Speaker 1: through his little lie brick of it. Did he get
Speaker 1: a haircut too recently? This little guy that looks great,
Speaker 1: he looks fantastic.
Speaker 4: Thanks, Yeah, smoking his back.
Speaker 1: Are we are we accepting what's happening here at the
Speaker 1: Golden Globes. They're putting it on display in front of us.
Speaker 1: Are we going to let the smokers back into the
Speaker 1: mainstream or are we going to shove them back into
Speaker 1: the shadows and push them out of here. We'll see
Speaker 1: what you think about that. As we roll on today,
Speaker 1: I've got some more moments from from the Golden Globes,
Speaker 1: and I want to talk, as Selim was doing there
Speaker 1: for a second about Nicky Glazer and her performance, because
Speaker 1: there's some interesting things to touch on there and I've
Speaker 1: got to take on that. We've also got the ice
Speaker 1: protests that happened over the weekend. Most importantly, these are
Speaker 1: Anian protest where incredibly brave people have been taking to
Speaker 1: the streets even in the United States. They've found themselves
Speaker 1: in danger with a U haul driving through them, which
Speaker 1: is just insanity that we'll get through. There is a
Speaker 1: lot happening in the world's most viral newsroom, so stick
Speaker 1: with us today. Amy Kaufelt on the Way and so
Speaker 1: much more. It's all coming up next on the News Junkie.
Speaker 1: So I want to get into what we thought of
Speaker 1: the monologue and all the roast jokes and all of
Speaker 1: that stuff, and some of the twists and turns and things.
Speaker 1: But there's a new conspiracy making the rounds about the
Speaker 1: show and the Golden Globes, not our show, and I've
Speaker 1: not the first I've seen of this, and there's people
Speaker 1: who think that.
Speaker 2: I'm faking it, that I am like this whole.
Speaker 1: Thing about me being sick for the last handful of
Speaker 1: days is fake.
Speaker 2: And here's one of the examples.
Speaker 1: This is Casey and Kara listening in West Palm Tips
Speaker 1: at the neewsyunkie dot com. Sean, we're happy you are
Speaker 1: back from your sickness, it says it air quotes. Yet
Speaker 1: after watching your latest Instagram post, I'm thinking it wasn't
Speaker 1: just an illness, but instead a transformation into Sean two
Speaker 1: point zero with a new look. Especially in the hair department.
Speaker 1: They think I got hair transplants. That's what the I
Speaker 1: started to do a thing. I started it today where
Speaker 1: before the show, I'm like, hey, here's some of the
Speaker 1: things we're talking about today, streams coming up at eleven,
Speaker 1: get the podcast afterwards for stories on Instagram and Facebook,
Speaker 1: and just putting up some quick content to promote the
Speaker 1: stream each day in the podcast. And it only takes
Speaker 1: a second. But yesterday, when I was trying it out
Speaker 1: and getting it ready, I did the first one. I
Speaker 1: did it without my hat on, and I didn't even
Speaker 1: think about it. Like, I just sat at the desk.
Speaker 1: I was getting the lighting right, and I just kind
Speaker 1: of winged the whole thing. And as I'm blabbing and
Speaker 1: yapping and recording this, what the hell was that.
Speaker 6: Looking through your Instagram you're watching my video? Did you
Speaker 6: nuke all your old posts?
Speaker 1: Uh? Yeah, I do it all the time. Yeah, at
Speaker 1: least what's every year? So I just delete everything that's
Speaker 1: old and great for the algorithm. By the way, this
Speaker 1: is why my Twitter account is so insanely successful. Just
Speaker 1: nuking that thing every year is just really great for
Speaker 1: the algorithm. But he says, just joshing with you, wish
Speaker 1: all of you the best in the new year. Hopefully
Speaker 1: you can give us down south in West Palm Beach
Speaker 1: it heads up your live broadcast this year so we
Speaker 1: can attend's Casey and Kara listening in West pomp Thank
Speaker 1: you for the email.
Speaker 2: There's no truth to these rumors.
Speaker 1: Hang on, I'll bring it up on on Twitter ceilings
Speaker 1: showing it. I mean, it's just I was at the
Speaker 1: desk getting ready to do the video.
Speaker 7: Yeah, but what I can tell, I mean that shirt
Speaker 7: isn't as blue.
Speaker 1: I mean, look, I got grays, I got some grays
Speaker 1: in my hair and even my beard. I you know,
Speaker 1: girlock cops found overall hundred bodies at his house. We'll
Speaker 1: talk about that later. But no, I didn't get hair transplants.
Speaker 1: I know. This is just what I look like without
Speaker 1: a hat off.
Speaker 2: It was just what happens when you never see somebody's hair.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, look, I mean my hair is thinner
Speaker 1: than i'd like it to be, and I've got some
Speaker 1: problem to spots, and I'll probably do something about it
Speaker 1: here this year, at some point in time. But the
Speaker 1: conspiracy is not true. I was actually sick. I've been
Speaker 1: sick here for for like now, I think six days
Speaker 1: or something, five six days. It's been miserable fighting this crap.
Speaker 1: And I hope you don't get it. So if you
Speaker 1: see anybody sneezing or coughing in public, run run the
Speaker 1: other way as fast as you can. Hearing people at
Speaker 1: hawking into something running grapefruity right there, Well, it was
Speaker 1: a little bit. I've had to practice that too. That ready,
Speaker 1: what Well, I was sick. It's just it's the smartest
Speaker 1: thing I could I could possibly do. All right, let's
Speaker 1: see here the golden globes were last night. Golden Globes
Speaker 1: are TV's and movies.
Speaker 2: TV's movies and podcasts NOW.
Speaker 1: And podcasts Now except for US, not US, but TV's
Speaker 1: TV shows with TVs. How much of this medicine has
Speaker 1: gone to my brain? We're TV's, I'm saying, TV shows,
Speaker 1: movies and podcasts that aren't the news Junkie are invited
Speaker 1: to participate in the Golden Globes. And I played Snoop Dogg,
Speaker 1: who got dumped during the broadcast at the beginning. But
Speaker 1: I have to tell you the incredibly lovable Roseburne. Her
Speaker 1: moment was my favorite. I don't know, do you guys
Speaker 1: hear this at all? Oh god? Rose burn is a weirdo.
Speaker 1: You might know her from Neighbors, the first one which
Speaker 1: was okay before Seth Rogan became insufferable. Bride's aids for sure.
Speaker 1: She was in the second one of the Neighbors series,
Speaker 1: which was not good but or not as good. But
Speaker 1: she's she's in a lot of stuff, Rose Burn and
Speaker 1: she's I believe Australian.
Speaker 7: She's Australian.
Speaker 4: She's also doing very well on Platonic with Seth Rogen
Speaker 4: as well. And then it was she up for if
Speaker 4: I something if I have legs, I'd cut him off
Speaker 4: or something. Or new movie something about cutting off her legs.
Speaker 7: Really I haven't. I haven't watched yet, but I've watched
Speaker 7: the trailer like three times.
Speaker 1: She should go method for that and actually cut off. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that's that's how you really bringing a full, full stretch there.
Speaker 1: But uh, she had one of my favorite speeches at
Speaker 1: any award show of all time.
Speaker 2: Uh, just because.
Speaker 1: I love how weird she is. Here's Rose Burn at
Speaker 1: the Golden Gloves, right.
Speaker 8: I want to thank my husband Bobby, come bully. He
Speaker 8: couldn't be here because he's getting a band of dragon
Speaker 8: and then he went to a reptl xpoe.
Speaker 1: She's crying. I thought she was gonna be like, you know,
Speaker 1: my child's undergoing surgery at M and there there are
Speaker 1: a handful of decent excuses not to be there, for
Speaker 1: when your wife wins a golden globe. Uh huh, getting
Speaker 1: a bearded dragon and going to a reptile convention.
Speaker 2: Is not one.
Speaker 1: And it is lame, she says, she just and she
Speaker 1: just says it just non chalant.
Speaker 7: Was my husband, Bobby, come Molly.
Speaker 8: He couldn't be haled because he's getting a band of
Speaker 8: dragon and he went to a reptel expoe, thank you,
Speaker 8: thank you baby.
Speaker 1: Yeah, there you go, I have legs. I'd kick you there.
Speaker 1: That is the name of the movie.
Speaker 7: Sorry about the cut off.
Speaker 1: What did you call it?
Speaker 4: I said, if I had legs, I cut him off.
Speaker 4: Maybe that's the sequel title.
Speaker 7: I do not know.
Speaker 1: Oh, I think she's great. I think she's Grey's worth.
Speaker 7: You know, sidebar, Christopher.
Speaker 4: Bearded dragons can be very dangerous if you don't handle
Speaker 4: them properly.
Speaker 7: Oh, but the diseases that they have.
Speaker 1: Is am I on the right one. A bearded dragon
Speaker 1: is like maybe maybe seven inches long.
Speaker 7: What's on them?
Speaker 2: Like, what's on them?
Speaker 1: Diseases?
Speaker 7: If not cared for properly, which I feel like.
Speaker 2: Give them in the wrong expo exactly.
Speaker 4: Or lessons be had, you know, some sort of Q
Speaker 4: and A at that expo that you could I mean,
Speaker 4: kids especially get very very sick.
Speaker 1: You can tell me you're scared of this thing.
Speaker 2: You're scared of this and you're scared.
Speaker 4: I'm just saying, I would, you know, be very careful
Speaker 4: and go to expos to learn.
Speaker 1: For the people who don't know it's a lizard, it's
Speaker 1: a it's a lizard that you get and you put in.
Speaker 2: Like a dragon.
Speaker 7: It's in the name John.
Speaker 1: And they are little guys, but they are adorable. And
Speaker 1: that's where her husband is at reptile convention, getting a
Speaker 1: bearded dragon instead of seeing his wife win a golden globe. Personally,
Speaker 1: I think I would rather go see my partner win
Speaker 1: the golden globe.
Speaker 6: People get paid to write jokes like that. That's not
Speaker 6: something that I mean, It just doesn't sound normal. Go
Speaker 6: to the next day of the convention or something.
Speaker 1: Man. Yeah, and those conventions are a wild time if
Speaker 1: you've ever been to like a weird off the wall convention.
Speaker 2: But when Courtney and I went to the cat.
Speaker 7: Convention that she's still so jealous of that.
Speaker 1: She was like, you want to go to this cat
Speaker 1: convention at the Marriott or wherever it was, And I
Speaker 1: was like, okay. We paid twenty five bucks and we
Speaker 1: went to the cat convention and it was like, I
Speaker 1: don't know why I was surprised, but it was.
Speaker 2: One room, one small ballroom.
Speaker 1: In this hotel and it was the most interesting character.
Speaker 1: It was like, I wanted there to be a spin
Speaker 1: off of Best in Show about the cat world and
Speaker 1: the cat shows because of the characters that I saw
Speaker 1: there was it was really really something. But I find
Speaker 1: it refreshing, I really do. I find it refreshing on
Speaker 1: somebody like Rosebery and going up there and not doing
Speaker 1: these like very performative political stances and you know, all
Speaker 1: the expected Hollywood stuff and and there's just so much
Speaker 1: of that. It's my personal reason why I'm just so
Speaker 1: bored of these sorts of award shows. And I want
Speaker 1: to say something here because I don't know if this
Speaker 1: is is set enough on a day like this, especially
Speaker 1: when I saw a lot of articles that were smashing
Speaker 1: Nicki Glazer for her hosting job, like page six said
Speaker 1: the twenty twenty six Golden Globes flat lined after ten minutes?
Speaker 7: Did it okay? Page six?
Speaker 1: So they said that's what the that's what their tick was.
Speaker 1: It was like, oh, how tiring they were, And you know,
Speaker 1: they said, uh, well, yeah.
Speaker 6: That could be taken a different way if I was
Speaker 6: Nicky Glacier and I delivered my ten minute monologue and
Speaker 6: they said it flat lined after that. It seems like
Speaker 6: a really.
Speaker 2: Good like mark for me.
Speaker 6: That's that's a compliment because they're like the Nicki Glazer
Speaker 6: part good and afterwards snooze Fest.
Speaker 1: Yeah that means I was when it was live. Yeah,
Speaker 1: Beating Heart and Nicki Glazer. If that's what the reviews
Speaker 1: are saying today, and I don't know if they are.
Speaker 1: I didn't go around and read all the reviews, but
Speaker 1: let's just say that that's an example of some overall
Speaker 1: vibes that's going on out there. I think that people
Speaker 1: who write this stuff are overall dumb and have bad taste,
Speaker 1: and some of you should listen to just quickly here,
Speaker 1: because you at some point in time you have to
Speaker 1: realize there's a lot of people around you who just
Speaker 1: flat out just have bad taste. Like everything they recommend
Speaker 1: to you, and don't get on me for butt boy here,
Speaker 1: that's a bit. Everything they'll recommend to you. They'll start
Speaker 1: to tell you, like, hey, watch this, and every time
Speaker 1: you watch it, you're like, dude, that was so bad,
Speaker 1: like that it was so bad, the food was bad,
Speaker 1: the place was bad. All their recommendations are bad. It's
Speaker 1: because there's a lot of people out there who have
Speaker 1: bad taste, just really really bad taste. A lot of
Speaker 1: people judge based on like political things now, which is
Speaker 1: so lame.
Speaker 2: In twenty twenty six, Nicky.
Speaker 1: Glazer is one of the few remaining based presenters. Like
Speaker 1: I don't want to say comic, because even though she's
Speaker 1: a comedian, this is a job for a presenter. That's
Speaker 1: what you do when you're like doing an award show.
Speaker 1: And Ricky Gervais doesn't get to do it anymore. And
Speaker 1: he was, in my opinion, the best of the best.
Speaker 4: I love this Ricky went on because he just stopped everything.
Speaker 7: She didn't care everyone out.
Speaker 1: He didn't care about winning over friends in the audience.
Speaker 1: That's what you need. And Nicki Glazer also is not
Speaker 1: like predictable, safe opinions all the way down the line,
Speaker 1: which again is so boring and yawn filled to me,
Speaker 1: She's all over the place. I dig it. I like it.
Speaker 1: I like that she's going after people. I thought that
Speaker 1: she said something pretty funny, even though you know, the
Speaker 1: Leonardo DiCaprio jokes kind of write themselves if it's a
Speaker 1: little bit expected. But she said to Leonardo DiCaprio or
Speaker 1: something like, what a career you've had. The most impressive
Speaker 1: thing is you've been able to accomplish all of this
Speaker 1: before your girlfriend turned thirty. Which is a pretty good line. Actually, consider,
Speaker 1: like you're gonna make a joke about Leonardo DiCaprio always
Speaker 1: being with younger women, you've got to twist it in
Speaker 1: a new way that people haven't done that before.
Speaker 2: I thought she was good.
Speaker 1: I think we need to when we have somebody who
Speaker 1: stands up and isn't afraid to call out the people
Speaker 1: in the audience and still is not like you. There's
Speaker 1: so many of these celebrities that will sit there with
Speaker 1: these puss faces on and the audiences of these award shows,
Speaker 1: and if you dare to come after them, they'll like
Speaker 1: mean mug you and like you know, kind of cry
Speaker 1: believe their way through things. I hate that. I think
Speaker 1: that's so lame, empathetic, Excuse me. And I think that
Speaker 1: Nicki Glazer is one of the few people left who
Speaker 1: can sling it like it should be slung.
Speaker 6: I think what she did to Leonardo DiCaprio after the
Speaker 6: obvious joke was even better because she cited an interview
Speaker 6: that he gave with teen Beat magazine in like nineteen
Speaker 6: ninety one, and it's one hundred percent reel. Somebody tweeted
Speaker 6: out a picture of it where it's like young ass
Speaker 6: growing pains. Leonardo DiCaprio, Okay, I can see him there
Speaker 6: on your age. Yeah, and it's like favorite this they
Speaker 6: did it favorite and uh favorite foods, pasta, pasta and
Speaker 6: more pasta.
Speaker 7: Has that changed?
Speaker 1: That took some took some work. That took some work
Speaker 1: for her to dig that up. That doesn't come easy. No, no, no.
Speaker 1: And like I said, all the other celebrities are doing
Speaker 1: like jud Appatow. Bro come on, I mean, they're all
Speaker 1: doing this same thing. Here's jud appas ten years ago.
Speaker 1: You know, since we've had COVID. I believe we're a
Speaker 1: dictatorship now. And uh so maybe he's maybe he's tossing
Speaker 1: it off, maybe he's joking. But this is like the
Speaker 1: thought process of a lot of these people, which is
Speaker 1: hilarious considering what we were seeing happen in Venezuela and
Speaker 1: Iran right now. But the stuff up there where it's like,
Speaker 1: I believe we're in a dictatorship now. Hey, by the way,
Speaker 1: here's all my safe opinions. Wanda Psyke's with the same
Speaker 1: five woke jokes over and over and over. It's so cringe.
Speaker 1: People are done with this. They want to have fun
Speaker 1: and see people who have the ability to make fun
Speaker 1: of each other. And in my personal opinion, I think
Speaker 1: that Nicki Glazer is one of the best at it,
Speaker 1: and I salute her the job well done. I say
Speaker 1: to you, bringing up all of the things, making fun
Speaker 1: of all of the people and still doing it in
Speaker 1: a day and age when you know people don't like
Speaker 1: to do that as much. It's a lot of cringe,
Speaker 1: a lot of cringe. But she cut through it at
Speaker 1: least a bit. That's all. They had Paul Market advertising
Speaker 1: up on the walls. Yeah, Pauly Market has so much
Speaker 1: money now that they were like people were live betting
Speaker 1: on who is going to win the next awards, and
Speaker 1: they could throw the money at Hollywood and be like,
Speaker 1: we will give you this amount.
Speaker 2: Of money to turn this into a horse race.
Speaker 1: We want people to be able to purchase bets and
Speaker 1: bet forward against the celebrities who are going to be
Speaker 1: winning or the movies or whatever.
Speaker 2: So they were in attendance there.
Speaker 1: They're the Polymarket live predictions board up in the event
Speaker 1: venue there. Okay, when we come back, we'll talk about
Speaker 1: actual dictatorship stuff, because for a bit we have to
Speaker 1: talk about Iran and the brave people who are taking
Speaker 1: to the streets. When you protest in Iran, it's not
Speaker 1: like when you protest in the United States of America.
Speaker 1: And when you protest in Iran, you could end up
Speaker 1: in a pile of allegedly up to like two to
Speaker 1: three thousand dead bodies of people who have braved the
Speaker 1: streets against a real dictatorship to try to bring about
Speaker 1: some sort of democracy and top top of a theocracy
Speaker 1: in their country. If you don't know what any of
Speaker 1: this means, I'll explain it quickly and we'll move on to
Speaker 1: the next thing. But I want to talk about that.
Speaker 1: I want to talk about Daniel Sterearn from home alone
Speaker 1: getting getting really hit with in you know, it's like
Speaker 1: a a tough way if you didn't see the story
Speaker 1: about him. We'll talk about that in a whole lot
Speaker 1: more as we get geared up for Amy Kauf felt
Speaker 1: too before too long.
Speaker 2: It's all coming up next in the news. Chunk key.
Speaker 1: I think this is so wrong, and I mean, there
Speaker 1: are things to pick apart here, but like to me,
Speaker 1: this is one of the low level things where I
Speaker 1: just cringe at.
Speaker 2: The media all the time when I see stories like this.
Speaker 1: When you have stories like the ultra viral one from
Speaker 1: this weekend where one of the dudes from Home Alone
Speaker 1: got caught with the hooker. Right, I don't even like
Speaker 1: I don't know some of the stories of the bust.
Speaker 1: I'm guessing it was like an undercover prostitute, so there
Speaker 1: really isn't any crime going on.
Speaker 2: The whole thing's fake.
Speaker 1: In my opinion, those kind of busts are ridiculous because
Speaker 1: there's no real crime taking place. Like, how do you
Speaker 1: have a drug bus when there was no drugs that
Speaker 1: would have been purchased? How do you have a prostitution
Speaker 1: bus if the prostitute wasn't even real and the person
Speaker 1: wasn't even going to be able to get a shot
Speaker 1: at having sex with them to begin with.
Speaker 6: Didn't didn't some of the Chris Hansen deals like get
Speaker 6: thrown out of court because there was no actual underage
Speaker 6: person involved.
Speaker 1: It's true, exactly, Yeah, because there weren't real kids. It
Speaker 1: wasn't solicitation of an actual miner. And then I think
Speaker 1: afterwards they started to get some actual miners to start talking.
Speaker 1: So let's get some real hookers in on these bus. Okay,
Speaker 1: all right, yes, to live.
Speaker 7: You know, along their non hooker life moving forward.
Speaker 1: I would say, and this is just a wild radical
Speaker 1: idea on my part, that maybe we should let consenting
Speaker 1: adults make deals with each other. I would say that
Speaker 1: maybe we should, like, you know, like if Daniel Stern's wife,
Speaker 1: Daniel Stern from home alone, if his wife, because I
Speaker 1: believe he's married, if his wife is upset with this,
Speaker 1: well yeah, then his wife, if she didn't know that
Speaker 1: he was getting a prostitute, has every right under the
Speaker 1: sun to be upset. But Martha from Albuquerque doesn't have
Speaker 1: any right to like wring her pearls over the home
Speaker 1: alone guy getting a prostitute? Who cares? Why do you care?
Speaker 1: And the only reason this stuff exists is so they
Speaker 1: can go this is a sweet childhood thing. But look
Speaker 1: at the dark side.
Speaker 7: Really so much so they didn't even arrest him.
Speaker 2: It was a ticket, you know, you got a freaking ticket.
Speaker 2: That's why there was no mugshot.
Speaker 6: And also it happened in the middle of December, so
Speaker 6: I think I don't know who reached out to TMZ
Speaker 6: and went like, did you guys not notice the home
Speaker 6: alone guy got yeah?
Speaker 1: And and to make everything worse, you know, they use
Speaker 1: like this this scary looking photo of him.
Speaker 2: He is, he's up.
Speaker 1: To no good out there, and then they fill the
Speaker 1: story like every other news outlet with all the stupid
Speaker 1: home alone jokes, right and or just straight up hooker
Speaker 1: references like yeah, sounds like Daniel Stern and if you
Speaker 1: don't know, he was Marv, it was Marv. Yeah, from
Speaker 1: the you know the bandits in Home Alone.
Speaker 7: Taller bad guy.
Speaker 1: He's a taller bad guy. Yeah, a guy who got
Speaker 1: like the uh iron hit on his face. They got
Speaker 1: beat up many different ways in that movie, as you know.
Speaker 1: But sounds like Daniel Stern didn't want to be home
Speaker 1: alone because cops issued him a citation for allegedly trying
Speaker 1: to hire an escort. The Home Alone start got busted
Speaker 1: in Camarillo, California, after cops said he was trying to
Speaker 1: bust with the aid of some hired help. Like that's
Speaker 1: why they're doing this. They're doing it so they could
Speaker 1: write like a cutesy little story about a guy trying
Speaker 1: to get a hooker who cares. Jan Forstman tell us
Speaker 1: Daniel was cited for so listening prostitution on December tenth, Like.
Speaker 2: Sielan said, this is over a month ago.
Speaker 1: It was smacking the middle of the Christmas season, when
Speaker 1: his Home Alone movies are typically doing big streaming numbers,
Speaker 1: and he decited a hotel, Like, how could he possibly
Speaker 1: have done this when he's in this family friendly Christmas movie?
Speaker 6: Did you guys know that Marv had a last name
Speaker 6: in Home Alone?
Speaker 2: I wouldn't know what it was.
Speaker 1: I don't know sure you would know what it was,
Speaker 1: unless maybe when they show like the Snakes the I
Speaker 1: think in either one or two, they have a newspaper
Speaker 1: that says, like the Wet Bandit's escape. Yeah, I think two,
Speaker 1: So maybe if you look closely at the newspaper it
Speaker 1: says it. But there's no other place in the movie
Speaker 1: where they would have said his last name. And on
Speaker 1: his Wikipedia page it says he's best known for his
Speaker 1: roles as Marv Merchants.
Speaker 2: In Home Alone.
Speaker 1: If the solicitation allegation is true, they said, seems Daniel
Speaker 1: was trying to take the wet and Sticky Bandit thing
Speaker 1: too far. If Jesus dude, ridiculous again.
Speaker 2: If he is married, I think he's married forty five.
Speaker 6: Years, oh maybe forty six this year.
Speaker 2: Guess what that's their business that's their business.
Speaker 1: If his wife has a problem with that, she can
Speaker 1: do everything. Get the divorce, get that sweet sweet home alone, money,
Speaker 1: you know, whatever he got from the Silver tunas over
Speaker 1: the years, go out there and reel it in from him.
Speaker 1: But the idea that everybody looks at stories like this,
Speaker 1: it's always a weird agenda. There's so many stories like this,
Speaker 1: like these weird agendas tied to it. The agenda here
Speaker 1: is to make fun of the person because they have
Speaker 1: a squeaky clean image because of a movie that they
Speaker 1: were in. I mean, that's it. That's what the idea
Speaker 1: is of of doing this stuff. And it's because it's
Speaker 1: sexy and sallacious and America is still very very scared
Speaker 1: of all things related to sex. Okay, it's that's it's
Speaker 1: a super weird thing.
Speaker 6: And it's weird to say that he has a squeaky
Speaker 6: clean image because yes, he was in h like one
Speaker 6: of the most beloved family movies of the Christmas season.
Speaker 6: But he was the bad guy, you know then that
Speaker 6: almost murdered Kevin McAllister's story.
Speaker 4: But his parents did leave him there and forgot until
Speaker 4: they were across the pond.
Speaker 1: Nobody cares like everybody in the comments obviously don't care
Speaker 1: about this. I don't care, dude. WGF is wrong with you?
Speaker 1: TMS he deleted this s he didn't deserve this. To
Speaker 1: consent adults is none of your business. It's wrong and
Speaker 1: you know it, and spreading it to the world can
Speaker 1: sham him. He's probably lonely. When I worked for a
Speaker 1: nine one one call center, we saw a drastic increase
Speaker 1: in calls in December. I'm sure this will help way
Speaker 1: to go victimless crime. It's an adult.
Speaker 4: What the more you comments, he's like, we're going to
Speaker 4: leave it up. Everyone's picking it up, everyone's citing them.
Speaker 4: They're getting so much unique viewership. The more you talk
Speaker 4: about it, the more they're like, we're going to follow
Speaker 4: him for the next two days.
Speaker 1: You still buying comment You're still getting huggers Home of Boone.
Speaker 1: One of the comments is home a bone? Who cares?
Speaker 1: Who cares? Now he's a sticky fingerbanded you know, like,
Speaker 1: no one nobody in the comments cares. This is what
Speaker 1: the world is come down to, these media outlets, and
Speaker 1: it's not just TMC. This is literally your a lot
Speaker 1: of your local outlets. Definitely the big cable news outlets
Speaker 1: and national news organizations in the United States of America,
Speaker 1: they constantly put together pieces like this.
Speaker 2: That nobody really cares about.
Speaker 1: But it's fun to just dump on somebody and go
Speaker 1: like squeaky clean guy got the hooker. They literally did
Speaker 1: this to pee Wee Herman and squashed him into the ground. Everybody,
Speaker 1: all right, they did this to pee Wee Herman and
Speaker 1: squashed him into the ground because since he went to
Speaker 1: an adult movie theater.
Speaker 7: Where everyone else was masturbating.
Speaker 1: Where it was just an open thing. That that's why
Speaker 1: you went to the adult movie theater. Anybody ever wonder
Speaker 1: why why are you watching these movies in public?
Speaker 2: Cost at home here to write a review?
Speaker 1: We watched them in public. So all the there are
Speaker 1: flag staffs out and you know, beating away on them.
Speaker 1: This is what happens in these places. And they did
Speaker 1: this to Peewee Herman again, kid actor, the guy was
Speaker 1: in the children's world of entertainment and they just do
Speaker 1: this crap. It's stupid. It's among the list of its
Speaker 1: way on the bottom of problems, but among the list
Speaker 1: of massive issues that happened in modern media that just
Speaker 1: drive me crazy.
Speaker 2: But we'll see what you think.
Speaker 1: Send us a dispatch over at thenewschunky dot com. Maybe
Speaker 1: you think that's fair game. Tips of the News junk
Speaker 1: dot com. Anonymous emails the show. This person says, please
Speaker 1: keep me anonymous. Good afternoon. Just heard on the podcast
Speaker 1: about police and the AI they were using messing up
Speaker 1: on a report. This is true. Yeah, there was a
Speaker 1: police It was a report where the news went out
Speaker 1: with this officer and they were showing how they were
Speaker 1: utilizing AI to write the police reports from their bodycam footage, right,
Speaker 1: and the AI was holding a setup.
Speaker 4: It was a setup at least the news and they
Speaker 4: like had pulled over someone.
Speaker 7: Do you know why I'm pulling you over?
Speaker 1: Yep? Driving well blonde?
Speaker 2: Yeah yeah.
Speaker 1: And they're like they're watching a show on a tablet
Speaker 1: or something as they're driving along. And the point was,
Speaker 1: in this silly little segment they were doing, they kind
Speaker 1: of accidentally uncovered that the AI software that analyzes police
Speaker 1: body cams and writes the reports automatically is.
Speaker 6: Not good to be more accurate, the thing that they
Speaker 6: did for the news that worked as like it was
Speaker 6: supposed to.
Speaker 2: Like they did, they took.
Speaker 6: The body camera footage, they put it in the AI,
Speaker 6: the AI wrote a police report based on the body
Speaker 6: camera footage and that seemed to work fine.
Speaker 2: The reason they.
Speaker 1: Were they testing when it did go wrong, and they
Speaker 1: were testing it because it had previously gone wrong. This
Speaker 1: was a new software they were testing because a different
Speaker 1: software they had used said like turn somebody in to
Speaker 1: an animal or a police like the police report the
Speaker 1: AI wrote said that the police officer turned into a frog. Yes,
Speaker 1: that's what it was. And it's like, oh, I think
Speaker 1: something's going wrong here. The email from anonymous continues. It
Speaker 1: purposely adds statements like zap to make sure the officer
Speaker 1: is reading the report and not just signing off on
Speaker 1: it without checking it. Hope, hope this helps keep up
Speaker 1: the great work. I don't think that's true.
Speaker 7: You know, that's a good test.
Speaker 1: I don't think, But I don't think that they would
Speaker 1: put fake stuff in an AI generated police report just
Speaker 1: to see if the officer is looking at it. That's
Speaker 1: a terrible precedent to set, because then if a couple
Speaker 1: of those squeak through, you have official police documentation that
Speaker 1: has has nonsense in it. I seriously, seriously doubt it would.
Speaker 1: It would really open you up to the uh, like
Speaker 1: the mistake of filing a false police report.
Speaker 2: Wait, would that be a false police report?
Speaker 1: If it's in the it's it would be easily dismissed
Speaker 1: in court because the facts of the police report are
Speaker 1: obviously not true. So you cannot use that police report
Speaker 1: in the whatever court case was going on against that person.
Speaker 1: That would certainly be a problem. I've got more of
Speaker 1: these to get to, and we have a lot of
Speaker 1: stories to talk about. We're gonna take a quick break though.
Speaker 1: We're gonna be joined by our friend Amy Kaufelt, Fox
Speaker 1: thirty five. She's amazing. We'll see what big stories are
Speaker 1: grabbing her attention today and what's happening in her world,
Speaker 1: and that is coming up next in the news junkie.
Speaker 1: All right, it is Monday, and it is time for
Speaker 1: us to dust things off and get a little professional here.
Speaker 1: All right, that's everybody to get it together here, we
Speaker 1: get all that stuff I just said. We've talked about
Speaker 1: enough things that you know, we can't really talk about
Speaker 1: amongst polite company, and now it's time to straighten things
Speaker 1: out and talk to our amazingly talent a professional friend, Amy.
Speaker 9: Coffe Monday, Sean, you sound a little under the weather.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, I was out on a Thursday and Friday.
Speaker 1: I whatever is going around, the flu whatever it is,
Speaker 1: and the blue I think so I had chills. They
Speaker 1: were multiplying and it was a little rough for like
Speaker 1: most of Friday and Saturday. At first, I just thought
Speaker 1: I had like a sore throat situation, like a head cold,
Speaker 1: like a real bad one. But I think it was
Speaker 1: more than that. And as much as I.
Speaker 10: Am, you get tested or no.
Speaker 1: No, I am not gonna get.
Speaker 9: Tested for that for that com So here's the thing though,
Speaker 9: that like, so just for anybody who's listening, that Tama flu,
Speaker 9: if you don't if you don't like get the flu
Speaker 9: like tested with the for like first forty eight hours,
Speaker 9: the tamba flu is no good, but the Tama flu
Speaker 9: like makes you feel better faster.
Speaker 10: But I'm actually impressed you're already back.
Speaker 1: I mean, I'm I'm hobbling through. I think I'm better
Speaker 1: on on Wednesday. God, you should have heard that on Wednesday.
Speaker 1: By the last three segments of the show, I think
Speaker 1: somebody compared it to I sounded like I was being
Speaker 1: actively waterboarded during the show, and like my voice just
Speaker 1: went into this if you didn't see me, you would
Speaker 1: have thought I was some small amphibious monster or something.
Speaker 1: It was like non human sounds that were coming from
Speaker 1: my body. But I've not done much in about four
Speaker 1: days or so, save for like one one time last night,
Speaker 1: mostly going out and finally having something to drink, some
Speaker 1: alcohol to drink. But mostly I've just been taking care
Speaker 1: of myself for this whole time. So stay away from it, amy, Okay.
Speaker 10: Okay, I'm trying to stay healthy.
Speaker 9: But I got the flu shot like a few months ago.
Speaker 9: But now everybody's saying it doesn't really do you any
Speaker 9: good because the strain that's going around is apparently.
Speaker 10: Not in that shot, so it helps a little bit. Right,
Speaker 10: Let's yeah, great, you're too young.
Speaker 1: What are you doing getting a who shot at your age?
Speaker 1: Your way too young? Lookout.
Speaker 10: I mean I almost always get it. I've gotten it forever.
Speaker 9: I don't know, because like I don't know, just because
Speaker 9: we're out and about so much, and we're I do
Speaker 9: so many like public events, and I don't know, I
Speaker 9: oh insurance.
Speaker 1: You know, you're out there hanging out with the mongrels
Speaker 1: in the general public, and they're coughing on everything.
Speaker 9: You know, like when you're out and you're doing like
Speaker 9: charity events and stuff. I mean, they're just when you're
Speaker 9: around a lot of people, you're just more succepted.
Speaker 1: It's like kids in school, two charity events a year. Amy,
Speaker 1: We're different, We're cut from a different cloth. You put
Speaker 1: a lot into them. Though, Okay, it makes for all
Speaker 1: the bad stuff that we've done.
Speaker 2: It overturns that, I think. But stay away from it.
Speaker 1: If you see somebody at Fox over there, like hacking
Speaker 1: up or sneezing on something, stay away.
Speaker 2: According to somehow has avoided this.
Speaker 1: I have coughed over every inch of her body, attempted
Speaker 1: to drag her down bedroom. Oh I have, though I
Speaker 1: have you know.
Speaker 9: Like all moved to a different room, Sean when you're sick,
Speaker 9: or does Courtney moved to a different room?
Speaker 1: No, No, we have a very big bed, Amy, Our
Speaker 1: bed is quite large, so I could if well, we
Speaker 1: could both if we wanted to. But usually she's way
Speaker 1: over to the left side of the bed. I'm way
Speaker 1: over to the right, and so I just make sure
Speaker 1: it's in the middle like a human, like a human
Speaker 1: taking up room and and sucking the romance out of
Speaker 1: the bed. Done situation. So I've done my best to
Speaker 1: keep my face in another direction. That's that's what I've
Speaker 1: been up to. You've been up to something different. I
Speaker 1: saw you. You went skin you did You're looking at
Speaker 1: the world. Man, you're living life over there.
Speaker 2: Amy, it's amazing.
Speaker 10: We had a blast.
Speaker 9: We for the first time ever we went to a
Speaker 9: steamboat Colorado.
Speaker 10: It was we had a lot of fun.
Speaker 9: It was beautiful, a nice We had it like a
Speaker 9: good like a foot of snow while we were out there,
Speaker 9: so it really helped because they.
Speaker 10: Weren't they haven't had a lot of snow out west.
Speaker 10: But no, it's fun.
Speaker 9: And then this weekend my sister came to town and
Speaker 9: we went to black Hammick and did the airboat You
Speaker 9: guys ever done that over black Hammick On, like Jessup, No,
Speaker 9: that's not going before.
Speaker 7: Just as a Floridian that's something you do as a.
Speaker 9: Child or really fun places to do airboats. But like Jessica,
Speaker 9: was cool because it's the largest concentration of gators, I
Speaker 9: believe in the entire state, thirteen thousand gators.
Speaker 1: Wow.
Speaker 9: Wait, like Jessup, that's thirteen thousand gators. So way back
Speaker 9: in the day, like Jessup used to be where they
Speaker 9: would take the nuisance gators, Like if you had a
Speaker 9: gator that was acting up in your neighborhood, they would
Speaker 9: drag the gator out to like Jessup and throw it
Speaker 9: in there.
Speaker 1: And so they just let them.
Speaker 7: I mean they just.
Speaker 10: They've just their population just exploded.
Speaker 9: So so this isn't even like high season for seeing
Speaker 9: the gators. They usually say like February March is when
Speaker 9: you'll see more of them. But we were out there
Speaker 9: on Saturday afternoon and I don't.
Speaker 10: Know, we probably saw ten. I saw lots of little
Speaker 10: baby gators. I saw a couple of big ones.
Speaker 7: I mean obviously don't swim in that.
Speaker 10: But I yeah, yeah, you don't want to swim in
Speaker 10: like Jessup.
Speaker 4: Nervous that they're having airboat. It's like one wrong move
Speaker 4: and what yeah happens.
Speaker 9: Why I even getting nervous just driving over that bridge,
Speaker 9: you know, like the like the four seventeen, like Jessup bridge. Yeah,
Speaker 9: I'm always like it just it wouldn't take much.
Speaker 1: I don't know personally, if an airboat is an autism test,
Speaker 1: put me on the spectrum, because airboats are there's something
Speaker 1: about like how do you get over how just obnoxiously loud?
Speaker 1: That is, to let yourself have a good tone.
Speaker 2: I know they have to give me those those like
Speaker 2: you're on a monster.
Speaker 4: Yeah, guys, like when the guy goes down, Yeah, then
Speaker 4: they're good stuff.
Speaker 9: Then you take your headphones off and like explain stuff
Speaker 9: and like like this was a cool detail. So that
Speaker 9: Bird Island, which is the little island in the middle
Speaker 9: of like jessup, that you see when you.
Speaker 10: Drive over the bridge.
Speaker 9: So some lady in Jacksonville owns that island. She paid
Speaker 9: a dollar for it back in the nineteen sixties.
Speaker 10: See, like yeah, and a.
Speaker 9: Part of the I guess the agreement when she bought
Speaker 9: the island is that you can't build on it, which
Speaker 9: I don't know why you would build on it anyway.
Speaker 7: Jessup, what's going on?
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think she is.
Speaker 10: Yeah, they said she still owns it.
Speaker 1: If you could buy it for a dollar but not
Speaker 1: build on it, why buy it?
Speaker 10: I don't, I mean, I guess, say you own.
Speaker 1: What are you even asking?
Speaker 7: You are asking the question that Amy's group did not ask.
Speaker 1: On the airport there there is a small island off
Speaker 1: of the keys. Would you like it for a dollar. Yeah, okay,
Speaker 1: there we go. But I can't do anything with it.
Speaker 1: So what are you still going to you say you.
Speaker 2: Own an island, it's only a dollar.
Speaker 6: I would shell out the dollar, you know, maybe even
Speaker 6: two dollars, even.
Speaker 9: If you buy stars exactly like you can like buy
Speaker 9: a star.
Speaker 7: I appreciate and I'm so sorry.
Speaker 10: Or whatever, Nicole, you can name it.
Speaker 4: If you have this back and forth in that banter
Speaker 4: moment on Good Day Orlando today, I believe that your
Speaker 4: co workers had responded.
Speaker 7: Like, oh, that's awesome. I would love to buy an island.
Speaker 7: But then we kind of ground.
Speaker 11: You here when you talk to us, like, but why
Speaker 11: can't you pull any such a mighty people died in
Speaker 11: that late Yeah.
Speaker 1: I mean, I'll take an island for a dollar, no
Speaker 1: matter what the stipulation.
Speaker 7: But you're going to build on it, you know it?
Speaker 1: Probably what are they gonna do? Come get me, come
Speaker 1: get me. All right, I'm going to build the most
Speaker 1: rickety treehouse style setup that I possibly could on this island,
Speaker 1: and I am going to old man yells at the
Speaker 1: crowd the clouds for the rest of my time on
Speaker 1: this planet, and it'll be great. That's that's probably what
Speaker 1: sunsetting looks like for me, It's gonna be happening very soon,
Speaker 1: very very soon. Okay, So what's grabbing your attention at boy?
Speaker 1: Is there a lot of stuff going on in because
Speaker 1: there is a lot of stuff.
Speaker 9: Well, there's a lot of international news going on, as
Speaker 9: you guys know, we're following that very close.
Speaker 10: So we had some protests downtown.
Speaker 9: Orlando this weekend, not only ice protests, but also people
Speaker 9: were out in protesting, not really protesting really, more like
Speaker 9: in spirit of supporting the people of Iran. We had
Speaker 9: Anna Escamani on this morning talking about that. Anna who
Speaker 9: is running for mayor. She is of Iranian heritage. She
Speaker 9: said the last time she went to Iran she brought
Speaker 9: her mother's ashes there. So she is very you know,
Speaker 9: in support of the people of Iran. She feels like
Speaker 9: this uprising is different. So it was an interesting conversation
Speaker 9: with her this morning. We're also watching very closely this
Speaker 9: emergency evacuation from the ISS which will happen on Wednesday.
Speaker 9: So they are going to splash down in California, not
Speaker 9: here in Florida.
Speaker 10: You guys know, sometimes.
Speaker 9: They splash down in the Gulf, but in this particular case,
Speaker 9: it's going to be a California splash down. We know
Speaker 9: that somebody's sick, but we don't know what the nature
Speaker 9: of the illness is.
Speaker 7: And they haven't. I mean I know is that he
Speaker 7: is stable.
Speaker 2: Or they are hold on right.
Speaker 9: It could be a female too. We just there's one female,
Speaker 9: three male astronauts coming back. Two of them are American,
Speaker 9: one I believe, one Russian, and one Japanese.
Speaker 10: If I have that correct. So we don't know which
Speaker 10: of them is sick. They won't.
Speaker 9: They're not releasing that information. They say it's obviously it's
Speaker 9: a hip of violation unless that.
Speaker 10: Person say what's wrong.
Speaker 9: We have no idea what the nature of the illnesses,
Speaker 9: and all we know is that this has never happened before.
Speaker 1: Wow.
Speaker 9: And so only three astronauts will be left on the
Speaker 9: ISS to maintain it, which is a very small number.
Speaker 10: It's the minimum number.
Speaker 9: So now they're saying they're going to have to rush,
Speaker 9: hopefully rush Crew twelve up to help out the three
Speaker 9: astronauts who will be left on board.
Speaker 2: Interesting.
Speaker 1: We've got some conspiracies boiling over on Twitch and chat.
Speaker 1: Somebody says it's a fake illness. There are astronauts fighting
Speaker 1: in space, and this is how they get them back down.
Speaker 1: They don't want the astronauts fighting in space.
Speaker 7: I mean, it's very hard to fight in space.
Speaker 10: Well, that's the problem you get, Saba.
Speaker 1: You get people who don't like each other. They're stuck
Speaker 1: in the space station together with one another, and that's I.
Speaker 4: Mean that though there was a wasn't a Russian astronaut
Speaker 4: a year or two ago that tried to like open
Speaker 4: something up and they immediately.
Speaker 10: Were kicking off.
Speaker 7: Yes, dang amy, I think.
Speaker 1: I probably.
Speaker 7: You could say.
Speaker 2: You want to play a game, but you're allowed to
Speaker 2: say it was the.
Speaker 11: First thing that came to mind.
Speaker 4: Sixteen seconds and you could say whatever. I'm sorry, ten seconds,
Speaker 4: could say whatever you want. This is very exciting. I
Speaker 4: forgot what I was at the point.
Speaker 10: You said a Russian astronaut got.
Speaker 4: And they tried to like open up a door or
Speaker 4: they were damaging something on.
Speaker 1: The they shot a hole into that is, they shot
Speaker 1: a hole and there was a leak.
Speaker 7: Got them back to Earth very quickly.
Speaker 4: So I I'm sorry conspiracy theories shut down.
Speaker 7: If they were fighting, this would have already been I feel.
Speaker 9: Like you have to have the right temperament to go
Speaker 9: up there, like you can't put like people who are
Speaker 9: like kind of like a little crazy.
Speaker 2: I don't know.
Speaker 10: Can you imagine if I were stuck on thinks on
Speaker 10: that thing.
Speaker 9: And I guess I shouldn't say stuck because they go
Speaker 9: there by you know, free will, But I just I
Speaker 9: would go a little crazy.
Speaker 1: I think, well, you would be better off than most
Speaker 1: of us up and up on the ISS, because you
Speaker 1: would not last the trip up apparely last on a
Speaker 1: billion dollar cruise ship, for God's sake. I had problems
Speaker 1: with that. I was like, these waves are too big.
Speaker 1: Shut down.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I was like, obviously we need to turn this
Speaker 2: thing around.
Speaker 6: You can barely fly wait till you experience space turbulence.
Speaker 9: Well, that's funny you bring that up, you guys, because
Speaker 9: we had an astronaut on this morning.
Speaker 10: His name is Captain Winston Scott.
Speaker 9: He's amazing, he's flown a bunch of space Shuttle miss
Speaker 9: and he's kind of our astronaut expert that we bring
Speaker 9: on whenever we have a story like this. And he
Speaker 9: was saying that the so, okay, so a normal person
Speaker 9: like right now we are all experiencing one G force. Okay,
Speaker 9: so that's like just walking around like we're we're all
Speaker 9: experiencing one g. But he said, when you do re
Speaker 9: entry it's four g's, so you can imagine the pressure
Speaker 9: on your body of four g's. There's nothing they can
Speaker 9: do to, you know, prevent whoever this ill astronaut is
Speaker 9: from experiencing that. So if you're if you're really sick
Speaker 9: and now you have to go through reinjury and experience
Speaker 9: that four g's, I mean, that's that could make you worse.
Speaker 1: Yes, actually you got you got that. You got the
Speaker 1: schwartz up there. There's a lot of stuff like if
Speaker 1: you're sick, you don't want to be in too close
Speaker 1: of contact with these things. And so they've they've decided
Speaker 1: to bring these this very secretive but they've decided to
Speaker 1: bring these astronauts back from the International Space Station and
Speaker 1: leave like a skeleton crew up there.
Speaker 6: It's weird that they haven't just had the astronaut go
Speaker 6: just tell them. If I was the same person on
Speaker 6: the ISS, I'd be.
Speaker 2: Like, just tell them what's up?
Speaker 9: What if it's COVID follow it's like something embarrassing ceiling,
Speaker 9: like what if you don't want people to know?
Speaker 1: Why would herpes matter? It's space.
Speaker 2: I know a lot.
Speaker 4: I'm just naming embarrassing things maybe, but an offense of
Speaker 4: those who have herpes.
Speaker 2: Uh, space aids or something.
Speaker 1: I don't know, Like there's got to be something that's
Speaker 1: that's gonna be tough.
Speaker 7: Okay, why also not send a doctor up there space?
Speaker 1: It's just logistics.
Speaker 9: I mean, somebody up there have to be somewhat medically trained, right,
Speaker 9: you got it.
Speaker 10: I don't know number of audits for that.
Speaker 7: We got questions?
Speaker 1: Yeah, well, what else is grabbing your attention out there?
Speaker 2: A mean there's well.
Speaker 9: We've got to We've got to launch today coming up
Speaker 9: in about a half hour, So keep an eye to
Speaker 9: the sky if you live in central Florida and you're listening.
Speaker 10: We got to launch at twelve forty this morning.
Speaker 9: It's just it's just a SpaceX sending up some more
Speaker 9: startling satellite.
Speaker 10: So that's interesting.
Speaker 9: We you know, we're keeping it, as we mentioned, a
Speaker 9: close eye on a raw situation. We're also keep being
Speaker 9: an eye on some of the other crazy stories that
Speaker 9: are going on today. We've got oh gosh, I'm losing
Speaker 9: my mind.
Speaker 10: I'm blank. No, it is, it is.
Speaker 7: Let's do some curse words.
Speaker 1: I don't know. I don't know what is true and
Speaker 1: what is not true, unfortunately when it comes to the
Speaker 1: protests in Iran. But some of the numbers are crazy
Speaker 1: to consider. And and you know, we have this level
Speaker 1: of there's a particular type of person who thinks, you know,
Speaker 1: we're fighting back against like fascism in the United States
Speaker 1: of America. These people in Iran, if if any of
Speaker 1: the things that I see are to be true, at
Speaker 1: least eight hundred of them have been killed, if not
Speaker 1: far more than that. And they're out there in the
Speaker 1: streets and they're just mowing them down, and there's no
Speaker 1: internet for them to like post these videos from For
Speaker 1: the most part, it is it is bad, you know.
Speaker 9: And well, they call it the red line, Sean, and
Speaker 9: I'm sure you've heard the President refer to this a
Speaker 9: couple of times.
Speaker 10: So he's going to have a meeting tomorrow morning where.
Speaker 9: They're going to discuss a little bit more about what
Speaker 9: is the red line where you know, at what point
Speaker 9: do they say, Okay, it is time for the US
Speaker 9: to go in and protect some of these protesters who
Speaker 9: are being killed. There's a lot of stuff going on
Speaker 9: as far as that the internet has been jammed or locked,
Speaker 9: and they were talking this morning about how, you know,
Speaker 9: maybe Elon Musk can send some starlink satellites over for
Speaker 9: people to be able to get communication with each other.
Speaker 9: So the reason they're shutting down the Internet is because
Speaker 9: they don't want people to talk to each other or
Speaker 9: for people to see the uprising going on in other
Speaker 9: cities and then to take part in it themselves.
Speaker 10: But it's starting to become more of a worldwide thing.
Speaker 9: I don't know if you guys saw the guy climb
Speaker 9: up onto the Iranian embassy in London over there and
Speaker 9: pull the flag down and replace it. And I mean,
Speaker 9: just talking to Anna this morning, she feels like, you know,
Speaker 9: that that change is coming, that this could potentially be
Speaker 9: the revolution that they've been looking for happen.
Speaker 1: I unfortunately, I hope on this issue that she's right
Speaker 1: about that. But unfortunately I've seen this happen even in
Speaker 1: my lifetime many different times.
Speaker 2: In Iran.
Speaker 1: There are huge nationwide protests of young people who do
Speaker 1: not want to live under a theocratic, legitimate despot regime
Speaker 1: like they're living under in Iran right now, and they've
Speaker 1: fought back a lot of times, but somehow they just
Speaker 1: always end up on the other side of it, and
Speaker 1: they say, we're going to loosen some things up and
Speaker 1: we're going to make it there are more freedoms for
Speaker 1: you in the future in it. So I hope, yeah,
Speaker 1: I hope that's right, but I'm not sure what direction
Speaker 1: it's going to go into.
Speaker 2: Obviously.
Speaker 9: The other crazy story that I was trying to think
Speaker 9: of and then I lost my train of thought, was
Speaker 9: have you guys read about this account of what this
Speaker 9: soldier on the ground said in Venezuela happened when the US.
Speaker 10: Troops landed to take Maduro out. It is crazy.
Speaker 1: I don't know if it's legit or not, because I
Speaker 1: don't know if they've ever actually named the the soldier
Speaker 1: who allegedly said this in Venezuela. But I'll see if
Speaker 1: I could pull this up, because I read this this
Speaker 1: weekend and the Venezuelan soldiers said like, hey, we were ready,
Speaker 1: we knew something was going to go down, but when
Speaker 1: the battle started, we weren't prepared in the slightest for
Speaker 1: anything like this, And he said that they hit us
Speaker 1: all here. It is. This is account from allegedly from
Speaker 1: a Venezuelan security guard loyal to Nicholas Maduro. The security
Speaker 1: guard said, on the day of the operation, we didn't
Speaker 1: hear anything coming. We were on guard, but suddenly all
Speaker 1: our radar systems were shut down without explanation. The next
Speaker 1: thing we saw were drones, a lot of drones flying
Speaker 1: over our positions. We didn't know how to react. After
Speaker 1: those drones appeared, some helicopters arrived, but there were very few.
Speaker 1: I think barely eight helicopters. From those helicopters, soldiers came down,
Speaker 1: but a very small number, maybe twenty men. But they
Speaker 1: were technologically very advanced. They didn't look like anything we'd
Speaker 1: fought back from before. It was like each soldier was
Speaker 1: firing three hundred rounds permit it. We couldn't do anything, geez,
Speaker 1: and I said, did your weapons do anything? And he said,
Speaker 1: no help at all. At one point they launched something
Speaker 1: I don't know how to describe it. It was like
Speaker 1: a very intense sound wave. Suddenly I felt like my
Speaker 1: head was exploding from the inside. We all started bleeding
Speaker 1: from our noses. Some people were vomiting blood. We all
Speaker 1: fell to the ground, unable to move. He said, technological
Speaker 1: weapon sonic weapons is what the claim was I don't
Speaker 1: know if this is true or if this is not true,
Speaker 1: but it's certainly something that's gone viral. As an account
Speaker 1: of this suggests that they went in and drilled them
Speaker 1: with some sort of sonic weapon. It incapacitated all these
Speaker 1: Cuban and Venezuelan defense forces that were protecting Maduro and
Speaker 1: then they just annihilated them.
Speaker 9: And yeah, right, we don't know is this true or
Speaker 9: is it not true. We just know that the White
Speaker 9: House Press Secretary retweeted it and basically was like, you know,
Speaker 9: read this.
Speaker 10: This is interesting.
Speaker 2: Great, I mean it is. It is interesting.
Speaker 1: I've seen the account and they you know, they didn't
Speaker 1: name the officer that said this. Then again, right now,
Speaker 1: in Venezuela, armed left wing political gangs who support Maduro
Speaker 1: are literally going house to house trying to find people
Speaker 1: who are happy with his ouster and put a bullet
Speaker 1: in their skulls. So like, maybe you don't want to
Speaker 1: name those people. So one of those things where it's
Speaker 1: very difficult to find out what's actually going on. It's
Speaker 1: very very tough. All right. She's the best skier that
Speaker 1: we know, she's an amazing talent in the newsroom, and
Speaker 1: she is Amy Coffin.
Speaker 7: Thanks for putting up with us.
Speaker 1: Yes, and any other curse words you want to say on.
Speaker 9: The way out you've done for the day.

Speaker 2: The ups are not ups.
Speaker 1: Excuse me, the uh the moving truck, the U haul
Speaker 1: truck that appeared in the streets at one of these
Speaker 1: Iranian protests and it was surrounded after it plowed through
Speaker 1: a whole bunch of people, and it was one of
Speaker 1: the most intense moments I've seen in a very long time.
Speaker 1: What really happened. We'll talk about that is the show
Speaker 1: rolls on. It's so much more and it's coming up next.
Speaker 1: In the news Hunkie, you can join us with a dispatch.

Speaker 1: a perpetual ask me anything over there. Record whatever you
Speaker 1: have on your mind at thenewsjunkie dot com. All right,
Speaker 1: before we get into the U haul thing. Last night,
Speaker 1: I looked over at the TV. I don't watch a
Speaker 1: lot of live TV, but I having a glance over
Speaker 1: at the TV where we were, and I said, son
Speaker 1: of a bitch, they bring Fear Factor back to.
Speaker 7: Television at your Buday did.
Speaker 1: And Courtney's like, oh yeah, And she looks and she's
Speaker 1: like trying to get a good look at Johnny Knoxville
Speaker 1: from Jackasses is the host now of this new fear
Speaker 1: Factor that they try to bring back last night, And
Speaker 1: she goes, well, you know, only old people watch broadcast
Speaker 1: television for the most and I think they're not gonna
Speaker 1: want to watch a show like Fear Factor.
Speaker 2: They'll think it's too gross.
Speaker 1: And I said, Courtney, when do you think Fear Factor
Speaker 1: was on last time?
Speaker 2: What was it the nineties?
Speaker 1: Was it? Was it? Literally the nineties?
Speaker 4: I remember that, And I think I mentioned this last week.
Speaker 4: That and the Mole when it was hosted by Anderson Cooper.
Speaker 4: Uh huh, was like the family sit down show for
Speaker 4: my family.
Speaker 1: Two thousand and one. Okay, those people, let's say what.
Speaker 1: Let's let's say they were twenty five. Okay, that was
Speaker 1: twenty five years ago. They're fifty now. They are the
Speaker 1: older people get starting to get older. And they liked
Speaker 1: Fear Factor when they were younger, That's what I think.
Speaker 2: And they liked Johnny Knoxville. They like Johnny Knoxville.
Speaker 1: They like so they go, you know, Joe Rogan's got
Speaker 1: the podcast money, he ain't gonna come hanging out with
Speaker 1: us anymore. But you know, let's let's have everybody eat
Speaker 1: cheap nuts or whatever and a bunch of HD cameras
Speaker 1: in their face.
Speaker 6: There was like a whole version of Fear Factor that
Speaker 6: I think I just forgot about that was hosted by Ludacris.
Speaker 1: Oh, I don't remember that it was.
Speaker 2: Because Joe Rogan was on NBC Fear Factor.
Speaker 6: And then uh, Ludacros hosted it on MTV for a while,
Speaker 6: and then now Johnny Knoxville on Fox.
Speaker 4: Now Johnny Knoxville makes sense to me, but also makes
Speaker 4: sense that Johnny Knoxville is promoting a brand new Jackass movie.
Speaker 1: Yes, yes, that's very true.
Speaker 7: It goes hand in hand.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah, he is, he is in that world.
Speaker 1: Did you know that? Is this true for the old
Speaker 1: one or the new version of Fear Factor? It says
Speaker 1: the theme song was done by Maroon five? Is that possible?
Speaker 1: Is that that seems too old to be to be true?
Speaker 1: It's not really song was done by Maroon.
Speaker 4: Five has also been around for a very long time,
Speaker 4: so it was a specific Maroon five song for the
Speaker 4: Fear Factor theme. The US version was actually an original
Speaker 4: instrumental track, but fans often associated Maroon Five's early energetic
Speaker 4: pop rock sound with the show's vibe.
Speaker 1: They're credited as the theme song proposer, Yeah, the composer
Speaker 1: on the Wikipedia page. They never made but they're back
Speaker 1: to eating sheep balls and you know, shooting splooge out.
Speaker 2: Of a out of a cannon or whatever.
Speaker 1: I don't know what they're doing over there, but they're
Speaker 1: back in doing it for the people who are now
Speaker 1: older and ready to watch a new version of it.
Speaker 1: So if you tune into that orfully're like, oh yeah, definitely,
Speaker 1: definitely I want to do that. I find it all
Speaker 1: to be a little weird and sad, just as weird
Speaker 1: and sad as like I don't know, if you guys
Speaker 1: talked about Jackass coming back from another round, it's like,
Speaker 1: oh my god, these guys are old now. We're like
Speaker 1: literally at senior discount level with some of these people.
Speaker 1: Johnny Knoxville was in his thirties or something when they
Speaker 1: started out that show, and there's they'll gonna put bear
Speaker 1: traps on their crotches and you fire, uh you know,
Speaker 1: beans at each other.
Speaker 4: With peal that it was like walk up, you know,
Speaker 4: something that's five hundred feet in the air. All I remember,
Speaker 4: you know, with fear factors. Yeah, I was like I
Speaker 4: wasn't just eating tests.
Speaker 2: It was always just like roaches on your face and.
Speaker 4: Someone's like being a very high high stuntman favor or
Speaker 4: fire was involved.
Speaker 2: Sometimes it was stuntman style stuff.
Speaker 1: But is that going to work in twenty twenty six
Speaker 1: A question to you folks on email or dispatch. Let
Speaker 1: us know what you think. Send a dispatch over at
Speaker 1: the news Junkie dot com. Let's take a peek u haul.
Speaker 1: Here's the situation. There was a huge protest against the
Speaker 1: Iranian regime, or a decent sized protest in Los Angeles.
Speaker 2: In downtown LA.
Speaker 1: There was a U haul that had a political message
Speaker 1: on the side of it from a likely from a
Speaker 1: group called m K which you may not have heard
Speaker 1: of before. I'll briefly explain, like I'm five for you,
Speaker 1: but the U haul turned down the road. I'm looking
Speaker 1: now at some of the footage the U haul is
Speaker 1: is just completely and totally surrounded.
Speaker 2: After it hit a bunch of people with.
Speaker 1: These protesters, they started yanking the door open, they started
Speaker 1: pulling the people out of the vehicle. Officers got there.
Speaker 1: There's there's some police up here that pretty quickly we're
Speaker 1: on the scene smashing out the smashing on the windshield
Speaker 1: of the U haul.
Speaker 2: Uh. And this wasn't just a coincidence.
Speaker 1: These people had a message on the other side of
Speaker 1: the U haul that was targeted at the actual protesters
Speaker 1: who were there on the street. But they surrounded this
Speaker 1: U haul, these Iranian protesters on the streets of LA
Speaker 1: and it could have been full on, you know, like
Speaker 1: the old Riots and the Los Angeles now her kingstyle.
Speaker 2: Correct me if I'm wrong, But you're surrounding a U haul.
Speaker 6: Like that, dudes climbing up on top of the engine
Speaker 6: and trying to smash into the windshield with his foot. Yeah,
Speaker 6: this is fear for your lifetime, right probably.
Speaker 1: I mean you kind of have.
Speaker 6: I mean, as as horrible as it sounds, like your
Speaker 6: only way of getting out of that is hitting the gas.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean fear for your life on both sides.
Speaker 1: You got somebody in the in the vehicle. It's it's
Speaker 1: like you could tie into the ice arguments from Minnesota
Speaker 1: if you wanted to. It's got somebody inside the vehicle
Speaker 1: who's obviously scared. And look, here's closer video for those
Speaker 1: you watching on YouTube and twitch that TV.
Speaker 2: I'll put it up for everybody else on see it.
Speaker 1: Now. This is outside of the U haul, like people
Speaker 1: were going nuts. The cops were standing up to keep
Speaker 1: the people away, Otherwise they would have ripped this person
Speaker 1: right out of this U haul.
Speaker 6: They just pushed the cop.

Speaker 4: Also joining him in the big burly gates is.
Speaker 1: Bob what Bob wear? Bob wear? You know what?
Speaker 3: What?
Speaker 1: This was a self report. I realized how many hippie
Speaker 1: people I'm friends with on Facebook and Instagram crying, you
Speaker 1: grateful dead folks, you you deadheads came out of the
Speaker 1: woodwork yesterday and they're like, man, and oh so I
Speaker 1: didn't know.
Speaker 2: I didn't know this, Oh this person?
Speaker 1: Oh okay.
Speaker 4: Co founder of the Grateful Dead, the guitarist died at
Speaker 4: the age of seventy eight. No word on the exact
Speaker 4: date that he passed, but the family announced it over
Speaker 4: the weekend. He transitioned peacefully, surrounded by loved ones after
Speaker 4: courageously beating cancer as only Bobby could. Unfortunately, he succumbed
Speaker 4: to underlying lung issues.
Speaker 2: Damn them they rest.
Speaker 4: And also, apparently a big deadhead was all of New
Speaker 4: York City because the Empire State Building honored him.
Speaker 7: Did you see it?
Speaker 2: Yeah, they did all the lights and stuff.
Speaker 1: I mean, there are a lot of Grateful Dead fans
Speaker 1: there there. There are a lot of them out there.
Speaker 6: Literally had the Grateful Dead on my television when I
Speaker 6: found out that Bob Weird, jeez, I know Jackson was
Speaker 6: very upset.
Speaker 1: He was in the band since the beginning. I've always
Speaker 1: said I've not been into the Grateful Dead story. I
Speaker 1: told maybe a long, long, long time ago on the show.
Speaker 1: But when I was a kid. One are the times
Speaker 1: we went during the summer to Vermont. The Grateful Dead
Speaker 1: were in town and they were playing in Burlington, and
Speaker 1: I was a little kid, and I still read the
Speaker 1: newspaper back then, not that I guarantee it, and and
Speaker 1: I read the headline on the Burlington newspaper when we
Speaker 1: were in town for the summer, and it said that
Speaker 1: there was a man who was at and he was naked.
Speaker 2: He was walking along the interstate.
Speaker 1: The police asked him who he was, and he said
Speaker 1: he was Jesus Christ, and they said he had been
Speaker 1: tripping for forty eight hours after the Grateful Dead concert,
Speaker 1: god man for two days. And this is two days later,
Speaker 1: and it was naked walking on the side of the road.
Speaker 4: The idea of going to a Grateful Dead concert and
Speaker 4: taking enough drugs for two days after the Grateful Dead concert.
Speaker 2: Yeah, as a kid, I was like this band is
Speaker 2: pretty cool.
Speaker 1: I guess this weirdo Bob Weird is like one of
Speaker 1: the few grateful dead deaths that you hear about that
Speaker 1: didn't happen riddled on drugs.
Speaker 4: Uh huh yeah right, and I was doing drugs in
Speaker 4: the sky only time for a little bit more. We
Speaker 4: talked earlier about the home Alone actor who is still
Speaker 4: making headlines.
Speaker 7: They're calling him celebrity behaving badly.
Speaker 4: But it was just a ticket for small solicitation of
Speaker 4: a prostitute.
Speaker 1: Right, still prosecute.
Speaker 6: You can get less points on your license if you
Speaker 6: watch the solicitation of a prostitute video and you'll never.
Speaker 4: Do it again, and then you get a ticket to
Speaker 4: the comedy club in town. But this is very bad,
Speaker 4: very bad behavior on a celebrities part. And we give
Speaker 4: it to point Dexter from Revenge of the Nerds.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, okay, it was.
Speaker 7: In big trouble.
Speaker 4: Timothy Bussfield was busted in the field of sexually abusing
Speaker 4: two young boys.
Speaker 7: No at news, babe, that's.
Speaker 1: A bad field.
Speaker 4: And also it was on the set of a show
Speaker 4: called The Cleaning Lady, which she was producing and directing.
Speaker 4: Do you think that there's still because there's other people
Speaker 4: involved going to release that or is it all just
Speaker 4: shut down?
Speaker 1: I think Courtney watched that show, The Cleaning Lady.
Speaker 7: Oh so this was like season two or three.
Speaker 1: I don't know. I think she watched that.
Speaker 2: Trust still came out so true.
Speaker 7: So the alleged I.
Speaker 1: Think he was doing it. Wow, they were filming. I
Speaker 1: don't think you know.
Speaker 4: It was the twin brothers who worked on the show
Speaker 4: eleven Now. One of them said the incidents began when
Speaker 4: he was seven, so.
Speaker 7: He watched the first season when the abuse started.
Speaker 4: Allegedly, during the investigation, bess Field reportably told police that
Speaker 4: the boys parents may have been looking for revenge of
Speaker 4: the Nerds because their songs were replaced on the show.
Speaker 4: Bestfield isn't under arrest yet, So that's.
Speaker 1: Good, bro.
Speaker 2: That is next level retaliation.
Speaker 1: Yeah, you're not going to put me on the TV show.
Speaker 7: You abused my twin boys?
Speaker 2: Yeah, as seven year olds like you know.
Speaker 1: Okay, Well, I'm gonna go ahead and listen to whatever
Speaker 1: these kids have to say and hopefully it's not true,
Speaker 1: but it seems like it might be.
Speaker 4: Or are you going to watch the premiere of the
Speaker 4: next season of The Cleaning lady.
Speaker 2: Maybe I didn't watch the first one though, So.
Speaker 4: To pay things off a rare copy of a comic book.
Speaker 7: Superman to be exact.
Speaker 4: That's not his sound at all. But it was introduced
Speaker 4: into the world in nineteen thirty eight and it.
Speaker 7: Just sold for how much money?
Speaker 2: Lots lots you saw that? No, but I know this record,
Speaker 2: I'll tell you that much.

Speaker 1: It's just that's one of the number one comic books.
Speaker 1: So it was four them now three million, okay, that.

Speaker 4: over the weekend. Both the buyer and seller have chosen
Speaker 4: to remain none of us.
Speaker 7: Jesus right, fifteen million dollar.

Speaker 2: were the buyer, I would.
Speaker 1: Kind of want to keep that a little close to
Speaker 1: the chest.
Speaker 7: Speaking of buying, do you know what it went for? Originally?
Speaker 6: Yeah, I was going to ask that if you had
Speaker 6: if this was in the thing, because I wanted to know, like,
Speaker 6: if you bought.
Speaker 2: This at the comic bookshop. How much was it?
Speaker 4: That's too high, Jean, five ten cents which is today's money.

Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, it's a lot of fifteen million dollars, a
Speaker 4: lot of.
Speaker 1: Mone I meant to say the five cent part isn't

Speaker 1: very If there was some kid who way back in
Speaker 1: the day, when did that comic book come.
Speaker 7: Out nineteen thirty eight?
Speaker 1: If well, he's very old now, if he bought this
Speaker 1: comic book and said, I'm going to hold onto this,
Speaker 1: it's going to be a great investment. I'll sell it
Speaker 1: when I'm an old old man and his friends all
Speaker 1: said you're a loser, and.
Speaker 7: He's not letting his friends touch it.
Speaker 1: By the way, he sold it for fifteen million dollars.

Speaker 1: get to more of the protest stuff that went down
Speaker 1: over the weekend. A claim that really somebody doesn't want
Speaker 1: to work ever again and they've made a claim. And
Speaker 1: I have to talk about this because to me, this

Speaker 1: at the Neewsjunkie dot com for rate my Blank on
Speaker 1: a Monday. This app is going viral. We might need
Speaker 1: it in the United States of America. There's a lot
Speaker 1: of spinsters and single guys out there up in age,
Speaker 1: and now they're asking a simple question, and that is
Speaker 1: every day, are you Dead? And this hot this app
Speaker 1: is going viral in China because there's a lot of
Speaker 1: single people, men and women.
Speaker 2: Single people in China. Also, this is a problem in Japan, and.
Speaker 1: They live by themselves and they stay by themselves a
Speaker 1: lot of times. And then the app is called are
Speaker 1: You Dead. That's the name of the app that is
Speaker 1: taking China by storm. It says named are You Dead.
Speaker 1: The concept is simple. You need to check in with
Speaker 1: it every two days by clicking a large button to
Speaker 1: confirm that you are alive. If not, it will get
Speaker 1: in touch with your appointed emergency contact and inform them
Speaker 1: that you may be in trouble. It was launched in
Speaker 1: May last year to not much fanfare, but attention around
Speaker 1: It has exploded in recent weeks, with many young people
Speaker 1: who live alone in Chinese cities downloading it in droves.
Speaker 1: It's propelled it to become the most downloaded paid app
Speaker 1: in the country.
Speaker 2: What a business.
Speaker 4: Like, Yeah, China, I thought was pretty strict about who's
Speaker 4: where and what you're doing well.
Speaker 1: They don't know if somebody's like at home and not
Speaker 1: doing well, and if they're dead inside their house. This
Speaker 1: does happen. I hate to say it. It does see
Speaker 1: people die and sometimes they don't know for a week
Speaker 1: or something that something has gone wrong. According to research institutions,
Speaker 1: there may be up to two hundred million one person
Speaker 1: households in China by twenty thirty. Hear that two hundred
Speaker 1: million people in China who live by themselves. They are
Speaker 1: not finding a partner, they're not finding somebody to be
Speaker 1: with to live with. They are single, and they maybe
Speaker 1: are rotting away in their house. It's those people on
Speaker 1: the app, which describes itself as a safety company companion,
Speaker 1: and it's just a big old button that says check
Speaker 1: in today.
Speaker 2: That's it, and you hit it.
Speaker 1: If you don't hit it for two days, then they
Speaker 1: send a message out. They basically woof everybody in your
Speaker 1: contacts and stuff and say, go check out this person,
Speaker 1: make sure they're okay.
Speaker 4: You haven't talked to them in weeks, but now we
Speaker 4: think they're dead, so get on over there.
Speaker 2: Here's what it says for. It sends them this an
Speaker 2: important notice.
Speaker 1: I'm Luna, I've been inactive for multiple consecutive days.
Speaker 2: Come check my physical condition.
Speaker 1: This is the message it sends people if you don't
Speaker 1: hit this button. It's sort of like a dead man switch,
Speaker 1: and it costs a dollar for everybody to download it.
Speaker 1: Of persons, all the China persons download it, and then
Speaker 1: they hit the button every day or every every couple
Speaker 1: of days, and it makes it so they can tell people, hey,
Speaker 1: I'm doing all right.
Speaker 13: Sorry.
Speaker 1: I wouldn't be surprised if, first of all, I'm a
Speaker 1: little surprised that we haven't had an app like this already.
Speaker 1: Maybe we haven't.
Speaker 6: It just hasn't gotten like the viral attention that this
Speaker 6: ru dead app is getting. But I wouldn't be surprised
Speaker 6: because the thing that Apple tends to do as they're
Speaker 6: you know, getting new features for their phones and stuff,
Speaker 6: is well steal or just purchase, right. There is a
Speaker 6: lot of stuff that other people come up with that
Speaker 6: they go, that was a good idea, We're going to
Speaker 6: integrate it into the ecosystem of all the phones and
Speaker 6: tablets in general. One of the glaring examples of that,
Speaker 6: I think all of us have done this the pulled
Speaker 6: down to refresh a page that was created by Twitter.
Speaker 2: Oh, Twitter was the first.
Speaker 1: App to do that, and then they were like, huh,
Speaker 1: that is a really good function. We're going to put
Speaker 1: it everywhere.
Speaker 6: And Apple already has these things that like if you
Speaker 6: fall or get in a car, crash your phone or watch,
Speaker 6: will you know alert people or call the authorities. You
Speaker 6: already have the system in place that tells you how
Speaker 6: much you use your phone a day. If you go
Speaker 6: an entire day without using your phone, you should be
Speaker 6: able to set up some sort of alert that tells
Speaker 6: people like, hey, Seiland hasn't touched his phone all day.
Speaker 2: Something is a muck, this man is dead.
Speaker 1: What if you want to.
Speaker 4: Go off the grid for a weekend, or you're traveling
Speaker 4: and you're not paying for the Wi Fi on the
Speaker 4: ship or something like that, then you set up ahead
Speaker 4: of time, like hey, you're my emergency contact. Yeah, don't
Speaker 4: worry about the alert that says I'm.
Speaker 1: Dead, vacation mode or something that you could turn on
Speaker 1: and be able to do that, because otherwise you're gonna
Speaker 1: have a lot of false positives when it comes to
Speaker 1: people using Yeah, you can also I.
Speaker 6: Mean, in that case you could see that the phone
Speaker 6: was moving, or that it left the coverage there.
Speaker 1: Maybe that's true, but be honest, answer answer this honestly.
Speaker 1: Don't say any names. Don't mention anybody. Don't say any
Speaker 1: names here. Do you know anybody that you think if
Speaker 1: they died, it might take people a day or two
Speaker 1: to figure it out. Do you know anybody you're like,
Speaker 1: They don't leave home a lot, they don't have anybody
Speaker 1: around them, they're single. They very well could die in
Speaker 1: their house and it might take a couple of days
Speaker 1: before people discover that.
Speaker 2: Do you know anybody in that position without saying their name? Yeah, yes,
Speaker 2: I think I knew somebody that did die under that,
Speaker 2: and you didn't check up on them.
Speaker 1: Wow, it wasn't like a best friend, wasn't that.
Speaker 2: It wasn't even somebody that I talked to in a
Speaker 2: long time.
Speaker 1: That's the problem. They didn't have any best friends, and
Speaker 1: you wouldn't be one, So they rotted away and melted
Speaker 1: into their couch in that.
Speaker 2: Remember a couple of years.
Speaker 4: Ago that I had like the news had shown up
Speaker 4: in front of the apartment complex across the street from me,
Speaker 4: and it was a.
Speaker 11: Girl or guy who had who had killed themselves yep,
Speaker 11: and it was. If it was not for the old
Speaker 11: lady who was like just like the lady in charge.
Speaker 4: She was not the landlord by any means, but she
Speaker 4: just knew everyone because we lived there for fifteen years,
Speaker 4: that person would have still been dead in her house
Speaker 4: for at least another two weeks.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, yeah, time would have gone by for sure.
Speaker 1: All right, let us know what you think, Tips ofthewsjunkie
Speaker 1: dot com. Would you download this app? Do you know
Speaker 1: anybody who would be in that position where if they died,
Speaker 1: like literally, it could be a couple of days before
Speaker 1: anybody even knew. Not you, I know, you're so popular
Speaker 1: and cool that people wouldn't know immediately. Beautiful there and
Speaker 1: good looking. That's true, absolutely true. Here's a fun time.
Speaker 1: This was just for the record, I hate the pop
Speaker 1: any balloons here. But allegedly this was a staged incident. However,
Speaker 1: peewee hockey the Hershey Bears were playing and the kid's
Speaker 1: hockey game turned into one of the biggest hockey brawls.
Speaker 2: Many people have seen it in a while. Here's what
Speaker 2: went down.
Speaker 1: If you missed it. The kids are brawling, punching somebody
Speaker 1: down on the ground.
Speaker 7: The cloud is in you.
Speaker 1: I know. Now, in reality, the crowd should be like,
Speaker 1: oh my goodness, these kids are like eight, they're all
Speaker 1: beating the hell out of each other on the ice
Speaker 1: right now, and the parents are like, yeah, you said.
Speaker 2: This is allegedly not fake but staged.
Speaker 1: It's stage. They released a statement, I'll read it in
Speaker 1: a second or this. Yeah, first of all, I mean,
Speaker 1: and maybe probably in pee wee. The rules are a
Speaker 1: little different.
Speaker 6: In regular ass hockey like NHL hockey, there's plenty of
Speaker 6: fighting that goes on. People pretty much look forward to it.
Speaker 6: I remember when one of the hockey video games came out.
Speaker 6: If you started fighting, that video turned from hockey game
Speaker 6: to mortal combat. And you're like, right, and but what
Speaker 6: is this teaching kids that were staging fights? And that
Speaker 6: is the response that they get. You know, yeah, no
Speaker 6: we're not We're not supposed to fight.
Speaker 1: But if we do a little fakey fight, and then
Speaker 1: the crowd goes absolutely ape as wild.
Speaker 2: They're like, yeah, they're fighting us, go so and.
Speaker 4: They will plan out future fights instead of just randomly
Speaker 4: decking somebody in the streets.
Speaker 2: Sea Lane Jackson's a hockey player.
Speaker 1: He's on the ice.
Speaker 2: He starts slugging it out.
Speaker 7: With Money's on Jackson. He could sluck.
Speaker 1: He's a big boy. He's a big boy. But are
Speaker 1: you gonna be like get him? Or are you gonna
Speaker 1: be like, oh no, this is not appropriate. Watch. I
Speaker 1: will be like get him, and then as soon as
Speaker 1: like I'm in earshot of him, I'll.
Speaker 2: Be like, you are in trouble, sir.
Speaker 1: That poly market and wet you bet on the kids
Speaker 1: fights and that you should be able to this is
Speaker 1: this is.
Speaker 2: A This is a slippery slope down the wrong path.
Speaker 1: Fifteen point eight million views. It got over the weekend,
Speaker 1: absolutely sky wall. But I guess a lot of people
Speaker 1: didn't know this. It was faked, this story, says. Youth
Speaker 1: Ice Hockey Club releases a statement following quote staged fight
Speaker 1: at the Hershey Bears game as the Hirshey Bear as
Speaker 1: these young kids the Central Pen Panthers Youth Ice Hockey
Speaker 1: Club at Lisa statement, they said, at this time it's
Speaker 1: important to allow this process to take place before drawing conclusions.
Speaker 1: We appreciate the patience and understanding of families, partners and
Speaker 1: community as we work through this matter. Yahbad Yabadi. They said,
Speaker 1: We're aware of a staged fight that occurred during the game,
Speaker 1: and club officials are investigating the matter and they're still
Speaker 1: going to get in trouble. Appropriate disciplinary action will be
Speaker 1: taken against the players and team officials involved with the
Speaker 1: stage fights.
Speaker 6: Wait, they called it an intermission game, So was this
Speaker 6: an adult hockey game where they let the kids play during.
Speaker 7: House Absolutely show to a kid's game.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's a huge crowd of people. And if they
Speaker 1: did do that, why are you Why are you punishing him?
Speaker 1: That's a fun time. I think it's a good time.
Speaker 1: Let us know what you think, though, send a dispatch
Speaker 1: over at thenewsjunkie dot com.
Speaker 2: Kind of funny, But Jackson your grounded.
Speaker 1: You're in trouble right now. We'll get to I got
Speaker 1: another question about the something you may or may not
Speaker 1: do as a father with Jackson sealand that I really
Speaker 1: wanted to ask you. We'll put this forward. We also
Speaker 1: have a very very strange moment on air Force one
Speaker 1: that we need to address something big coming to the
Speaker 1: world of sports. All that and more coming up next
Speaker 1: on The News Junkie. We're gonna have some fun in
Speaker 1: the world's most viral newsroom. Learn about the show at
Speaker 1: thenewsjunkie dot com. Where are my autistic friends at? I
Speaker 1: want to know how you feel about this, because I
Speaker 1: love what I see these stories, and I'm like, I
Speaker 1: wonder how actual autistic people feel about stuff like this.
Speaker 1: Because Barbie wants it's like woke points for the month,
Speaker 1: and they roll out a particular Barbie Barbie.
Speaker 2: And the Barbie doll like they'll make like twenty of
Speaker 2: them or some thing.
Speaker 1: You know. They don't mass produce it because they know
Speaker 1: the little girls all over the country don't actually want
Speaker 1: to buy the wheelchair Barbie or whatever.
Speaker 2: Sorry, that's just the reality of it. I'm not trying
Speaker 2: to be mean. It's what they do.
Speaker 1: They just make like twenty of them, so they sell
Speaker 1: out and they're like, oh my god, a wheelchair Barbie
Speaker 1: is sold out in record time. And it's like, Okay,
Speaker 1: you're doing this because you want to be able to
Speaker 1: say our Barbies represent a wide range of people. They
Speaker 1: all weigh eighteen pounds. This barbie will not look you
Speaker 1: in the eyes. They said, just for the record, A
Speaker 1: couple of problems I have with this. It says Mattel
Speaker 1: has released their first autistic Barbie doll and the Barbie
Speaker 1: doll has headphones on and like a tablet that comes
Speaker 1: along with it.
Speaker 2: And a fidget spinner. It can talk through the tablet.
Speaker 1: I guess, noise canceling headphones, and a bendable elbow and
Speaker 1: wrist for stemming. Which, Okay, there's so many things about this,
Speaker 1: that's what the communication is very odd. Yeah, Like as
Speaker 1: they're trying to run the whole gamut for all levels
Speaker 1: of like self.
Speaker 7: Diagnosis, I guess they're hitting all of them.
Speaker 1: Right. This shows you why the spectrum is kind of dopey, man,
Speaker 1: because it's like somebody who has a fidget spinner, Like
Speaker 1: if you're in the same ballpark as somebody who cannot
Speaker 1: communicate with another individual because autism is a communication uh
Speaker 1: issue in most most cases for these people, that's that. Well,
Speaker 1: that shows you how useless all these definitions being changed
Speaker 1: over and over actually are. But when I see this,
Speaker 1: I'm like, oh God, it's so funny to see these
Speaker 1: kind of things. And I really want to know what
Speaker 1: autistic people think about this, because they're clearly going for points.
Speaker 1: They're like, look, autistic, Barbie, she's out there counting Barbie.
Speaker 1: I'm looking at this Barbie much a.
Speaker 4: Regular barbie cost and then you can get the accessories
Speaker 4: after the fact, because.
Speaker 1: This this particular barbie doesn't have a price on it,
Speaker 1: and the one that I'm looking at here doesn't say
Speaker 1: like how much they charge for it. Again, I know
Speaker 1: they do small batch of these, so they could say
Speaker 1: that they sold out. But the thing is, I'm looking
Speaker 1: at this person. It's like, this person's not autistic. This
Speaker 1: person's not autistic. And I know what you're thinking. But
Speaker 1: let me tell you the truest thing you will hear
Speaker 1: all day long. Okay, this is the truest thing that
Speaker 1: you will hear all day long. I can't look at
Speaker 1: somebody and tell if they're autistic, but I can look
Speaker 1: at somebody and tell if they're not autistic. I think
Speaker 1: my radar on that's at about like one hundred percent, right,
Speaker 1: Like I can look at somebody and be like, Okay,
Speaker 1: just just by looking at you, I can rule you out.
Speaker 1: I can say that you're not autistic. The person I'm
Speaker 1: looking at here, this character one thousand percent.
Speaker 6: Oh my gosh, I was making a joke about stereotypes
Speaker 6: or just whatever. In the official corporate Mattel release, it
Speaker 6: says one of the features of autistic Barbie.
Speaker 2: Here is I gaze.
Speaker 1: The doll is designed with an I gaze shifted slightly
Speaker 1: to the side, which reflects how some members of the
Speaker 1: autistic community may avoid direct eye contact. First of all,
Speaker 1: why is it Barbie and not Ken? Anybody got an
Speaker 1: answer for that? I don't know anybody got an answer. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it's an autistic person. Why isn't it a guy?
Speaker 7: Because a female?
Speaker 1: What percentage of autistic people do you think are female?
Speaker 7: What percentage of autistic people want to Barbie?
Speaker 1: The amount of autistic people that are female is like
Speaker 1: twenty percent? Is like eighty percent dudes who are actually autistic?
Speaker 2: Joe, all right, no wonder.
Speaker 1: Ken says his job is beach because you won't even
Speaker 1: lett him be the autistic guy.
Speaker 6: In the Barbie world, autism is announced more often in males,
Speaker 6: traditionally cited at a four to one ratio, but recent
Speaker 6: research suggests the true ratio is closer to three to
Speaker 6: one or even lower.
Speaker 1: Nonsense, Absolute nonsense, And I'll tell you why. It's because
Speaker 1: they keep opening the gate to say who's autistic versus
Speaker 1: who's not autistic? Autistic medically diagnosed autism like actual autism
Speaker 1: in adults, it's about eighty percent.
Speaker 2: It's about eighty percent male versus female.
Speaker 1: Barbie puts the headphones on and gets herself a tablet
Speaker 1: and a fidget.
Speaker 2: Spinner or something, and it's like, here you go.
Speaker 1: Now, I know we have autistic listeners out there, including you,
Speaker 1: and I don't want to talk down to you like this.
Speaker 2: So I want to know what do you think?
Speaker 1: Do you see this? You see right through this? Do
Speaker 1: you see what Mattel's doing? Do you see what they're
Speaker 1: using this for? Or you're like, I will take anything,
Speaker 1: whatever representation they'll give us, will take a Let us
Speaker 1: know what you think about that. Send a dispatch over
Speaker 1: at the news junkie dot com a couple of Trump
Speaker 1: moments I'd like to share with you if you don't mind.
Speaker 2: I don't know if you guys saw this.
Speaker 1: I think this happened over the weekend and not on
Speaker 1: Friday when you were doing the show. But did you
Speaker 1: see the There was the big press conference with all
Speaker 1: the oil people. Okay, so it's all the oil industry
Speaker 1: people around this huge table at the White House, and
Speaker 1: there was a sort of a Michael Scott moment where
Speaker 1: you know what they call the chairs in that room.
Speaker 1: What oily stools? Trump got up during the meeting and.
Speaker 7: Kind of like that, what was that?
Speaker 1: Th X actually working too far off?
Speaker 7: Sehn, I'm proud of us.
Speaker 1: Are we to as close we might be? We might
Speaker 1: have just nailed it, And they'll be proud of that.
Speaker 1: The aut pick up your fidget spinners at the lobby, Yeah,
Speaker 1: they'd be like, that is representation. Trump in the middle
Speaker 1: of this meeting gets up and stares out the window
Speaker 1: and this has become a great meme. Now hold on half,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna turn this up just a little bit here.
Speaker 1: And these Twitter videos tend to be not nearly as
Speaker 1: loud as they need to be. But he gets up
Speaker 1: in the middle of the speech.
Speaker 14: Well.
Speaker 2: I gotta look at this my self, goes to the window.
Speaker 1: Wow, what a p This is the door to the ball.
Speaker 2: I wish the clip at the rest of it.

Speaker 1: window and saying, well, that's the view to the ballroom
Speaker 1: right there, when he turned around, God, see see if
Speaker 1: you can find the rest of the clip trump ballroom
Speaker 1: window or something, because when he when he turned around,
Speaker 1: he goes probably think it's a little weird for me
Speaker 1: to look out the.
Speaker 2: Window at this point in time. I know what you're thinking.
Speaker 1: Strange time from man to look out the windows.
Speaker 7: Looking at the window was next.
Speaker 2: And the people started meming the hell out of it.
Speaker 2: And there there was one the Amazon bush.
Speaker 13: Yeah it is it is here, here we are and
Speaker 13: if you, in fact, if you look, come to think
Speaker 13: of it, I.
Speaker 1: Gotta look at this place. Show the meme out the window.
Speaker 1: Wow of you. They started meeting it because they took
Speaker 1: and green screened the window that he's looking at.
Speaker 4: Of for stuff like that, where I'm like, okay, I'm
Speaker 4: all right with the advancement of the technology.
Speaker 6: If you if you google trump ballroom window, there's a
Speaker 6: there's a c NBC YouTube clip that has the whole
Speaker 6: thing and where he says the part afterwards, what was
Speaker 6: the point of the meeting?
Speaker 1: The one in the point of the window meeting was
Speaker 1: talking about oil investments in Venezuela.
Speaker 7: And the window came up. Okay, trying to put the
Speaker 7: things together.
Speaker 2: Trump ballroom window, I don't see a CNBC can.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna fire it in an email to you real time.
Speaker 2: Are you trying to stay away from text messaging or it's.
Speaker 1: Easier to eat the.
Speaker 2: Text messaging. I need to get on my laptop on
Speaker 2: any of my windows around.
Speaker 1: There's a whole thing. I forgot you were a boomer.
Speaker 1: I totally forgot about that. Yes, you absolute very easy
Speaker 1: for me. I've got my stimmy going here now see
Speaker 1: Lane is it's it's two thousand and one and Sea
Speaker 1: Lane is sending me a link via the intranet www dot.
Speaker 1: It's going three sent in tips. Oh ga, let even
Speaker 1: look at the right place to the other one. All right,
Speaker 1: I got an email from Chris Lane.
Speaker 2: All right, here it is. This is I guess Trump
Speaker 2: going to look at the window and.
Speaker 13: If your in fact, if you look, come to think
Speaker 13: of it, well, I gotta.
Speaker 1: Look at this place. Show there's a huge meeting going on.
Speaker 2: Cameras everywhere, people everywhere.
Speaker 1: Wow, Wow, this is the door to the right now.
Speaker 1: This is the part I was telling you about that
Speaker 1: they cut out of the other club. Unusual time to look.
Speaker 13: If the fake news would like to go back and
Speaker 13: take a look, you can. But you just see a
Speaker 13: very big foundation that's moving. We're ahead of schedule in.
Speaker 7: The ballroom and budget behind schedule.
Speaker 13: I don't think there'll be anything like it in the world. Actually,
Speaker 13: I think it would be the best we went from.
Speaker 13: This is, as you know, our biggest rooms.
Speaker 2: He's at his unusual time to go take a look.
Speaker 1: I know it's a little bit strange, but I wanted
Speaker 1: to take a look at that ballroom.
Speaker 2: It's in process.
Speaker 6: There was one Trump moment I saw over the weekend,
Speaker 6: and I don't know if you have this or what,
Speaker 6: but somebody was calling him out because they were at
Speaker 6: a meeting and Marco Rubio had written something down in private, yeah,
Speaker 6: and then slid it over to him.
Speaker 1: And he just read it. I would have done this too, Yeah.
Speaker 7: Why do we talk right in your ear in the
Speaker 7: talk back? Just wait?
Speaker 1: Why? Yeah? I mean I don't know if that's autistic
Speaker 1: Barbie material too, but I would have done this too,
Speaker 1: because if you go here, I'm handing you a super
Speaker 1: secret off the air message.
Speaker 2: I'm a hull hell of a freeze frame?
Speaker 1: What is this here? All right? Thank you? You'll you'll
Speaker 1: make it back one way or the other. I think,
Speaker 1: really very well, Marco just gave me enough. Go back
Speaker 1: to Chevron.
Speaker 13: They want to discuss something, go ahead, and I'm going
Speaker 13: back to Chevron.
Speaker 1: No, buddy, I just read the notes over here. I
Speaker 1: like that full transparency here right, We're just no secrets
Speaker 1: or nothing. What what are uh? What are these they
Speaker 1: got like glasses with little lids on this? Is this
Speaker 1: an optical illusion? Or are there waters? No, so they
Speaker 1: don't get poisoned or something.
Speaker 4: Or the poison protectors those have been around for a while.
Speaker 4: I also think they pour water like hours beforehand. Yeah,
Speaker 4: and so cute little toppers.
Speaker 1: So like nothing like falls in there, a little condom
Speaker 1: for their water to make sure that they that they
Speaker 1: aren't like getting any poison in there.
Speaker 4: Sean, congratulations, you're a non autistic um because I was
Speaker 4: screaming stuff into your ear and you went right past it.
Speaker 2: I didn't even hear it.
Speaker 1: No, not one thing. Oh No, you're not autistic or death.
Speaker 1: It could be that. It could, But the way I
Speaker 1: sound inside my headphones right now is quite odd. So
Speaker 1: I don't know, you know, I don't know how things
Speaker 1: things are going audibly for me. It could be a
Speaker 1: real mess. I've got more. I've got more clips clips
Speaker 1: go lore today we're just getting started. We have to
Speaker 1: talk more about the protests and or on and the
Speaker 1: ice stuff. Go fund me in the in the world
Speaker 1: of the ice situation in Minnesota, and I talk about this,
Speaker 1: we'll do it before jury duty. Jury duty's kind of
Speaker 1: loaded up. We've got a police officer who's very pissed off.
Speaker 1: I want you to tell me if you think this
Speaker 1: is petty or not what the police officers mad about.
Speaker 1: But before that, before we get into jury duty, there
Speaker 1: is a network that is going to change sports broadcasting forever.
Speaker 1: Their idea. I want to know if you think it's
Speaker 1: a genius one or if you think this is just stupid.
Speaker 1: So we'll pitch that to you. This sports idea that's
Speaker 1: going to change everything. Coming up next in the news
Speaker 1: Chunkie and this story is bizarre. I would lose count
Speaker 1: after a while. Probably, Yeah, Gourney's been deep diving on
Speaker 1: this guy's instagram. It's a real.
Speaker 2: Uh not yet, No, No, it's very very strange.
Speaker 1: First we'll get to uh yeah, probably, we'll get to
Speaker 1: that in just a second here on the show. Before
Speaker 1: we do Jury duty, quick question for sports fans, how
Speaker 1: do you feel about this? Okay, I'll use sports fans.
Speaker 1: I don't care what your favorite team is. I don't
Speaker 1: care what your favorite sport is. I know you like it.
Speaker 1: I know you'll want it. I know you're a sport. Oh,
Speaker 1: I want to ask you this CES was going down
Speaker 1: last week. We talked a lot about the new technology.
Speaker 1: I think while I was gone, you guys even made
Speaker 1: mention of some more like the gadgets and gizmos that
Speaker 1: were on display in Las Vegas at the biggest consumer
Speaker 1: electronics show in the world. But one of the places
Speaker 1: that debuted something. You guys, Maybe you guys talked about this.
Speaker 1: If you did, then whatever bet did you talk about
Speaker 1: what Peacock had.
Speaker 2: Released at the CES show for this year?
Speaker 1: No? Okay, Peacock the streamer, obviously NBC's streaming outlet. Peacock
Speaker 1: was debuting some stuff themselves, some new technology. If you
Speaker 1: watch anything via Peacock, this would affect you in some way.
Speaker 1: But they're big into broadcasting a lot of the sports
Speaker 1: on that platform over on the Peacock app and the feature.
Speaker 1: I wonder how some of the broad casters will feel
Speaker 1: about this. The future they were showing off the most
Speaker 1: was when you're watching a football game, Peacock is going
Speaker 1: to allow you to mute the announcers.
Speaker 2: They're going to allow for.
Speaker 1: A feature that will sing mute only the announcers. All right,
Speaker 1: there's just the people, your Joe Bucks, all those types
Speaker 1: or baseball, whatever game you're watching, you can you can
Speaker 1: mute the announcers and just have all the rest of
Speaker 1: the content coming through to you.
Speaker 7: Now, what is the rest of the content?
Speaker 1: Crowd noise, the in stadium noises that get picked up sometimes,
Speaker 1: I likely.
Speaker 6: The microphones that are in those giant like satellite dish
Speaker 6: looking things that, yeah, that kind of focus in the
Speaker 6: sound on some of the plays, like when you hear
Speaker 6: the football players crashing into each other and stuff like that.
Speaker 4: And you know what, and you've seen like the like
Speaker 4: post production clips of players that are miked up.
Speaker 7: I would love to hear that live.
Speaker 2: Rather than hearing these old, stodgy broadcasts.
Speaker 7: Brought to you by the third season of the show
Speaker 7: you never heard of.
Speaker 1: Are you still going to That's a good point because
Speaker 1: here here they are selling advertising on some of these
Speaker 1: football games.
Speaker 2: Are those gonna go away?
Speaker 6: Is there gonna be an option to have some of
Speaker 6: those like in content reads removed from the thing. Or
Speaker 6: also when they start putting up on screen graphics, are
Speaker 6: they gonna Are you still gonna hear the wooshes and
Speaker 6: all that weird stuff.
Speaker 1: Peacock says they are going to completely personalize the fan
Speaker 1: experience and enhance the sites and sounds of the games.
Speaker 1: These changes on Peacock for sports broadcasts will provide more
Speaker 1: vivid and balanced colors, immersive sound, and clear dialogue even
Speaker 1: when there's loud background or ambient noise. They also said
Speaker 1: that they're going to have a new feature where you
Speaker 1: can control the audio level for different things. So you
Speaker 1: have like a little audio mixer in your settings, and
Speaker 1: an audio mixer. You can have crowd noise, you can
Speaker 1: have referees, you can have the broadcasters, and you can
Speaker 1: mute any of those things if you want to. So
Speaker 1: if you want up the yap and yap and yap
Speaker 1: and yapp and you want to just mute them, you'll
Speaker 1: get rid of them entirely, and you have your own
Speaker 1: little like mixer for the audio for the game that
Speaker 1: you're watching. Well, I don't know how many of you
Speaker 1: but it would be into that, but let us know
Speaker 1: you're like, oh my god, please, thank god. I would
Speaker 1: definitely try it out just to see. But I think
Speaker 1: what you'll find when you mute the announcers is it
Speaker 1: is going to be so drastically different from the sports
Speaker 1: broadcast you're used to watching. That it's going to feel
Speaker 1: a bit uncanny. It's going to be a little awkward,
Speaker 1: I think. Yeah. It was like when I went to
Speaker 1: see a couple of NFL games live and I was like,
Speaker 1: I can't hear the guys telling me everything that's happening
Speaker 1: on the screen.
Speaker 2: Now I have to figure it out for myself.
Speaker 1: Yeah, guys, what's going on?
Speaker 2: Imagine baseball? You know, have you doing this with a
Speaker 2: baseball game?
Speaker 6: You're like, oh gosh, you know, on one hand, and
Speaker 6: I don't have to listen to these guys vamp and
Speaker 6: just kind of like fill time. But now nothing's filling
Speaker 6: the time. It's just kind of weird. It goes back
Speaker 6: to like a lot of the innovations in sports broadcasting
Speaker 6: have happened just gradually, gradually, gradually, so much so that
Speaker 6: we forget how it used to be. But when you
Speaker 6: watch like that NFL documentary on YouTube that I've talked
Speaker 6: about before, it's really good about like some of the
Speaker 6: creations of the things we're so used to about watching
Speaker 6: a game, and they show footage of old games that
Speaker 6: didn't have lines on the field, didn't have score bugs,
Speaker 6: didn't have the kind of shots that they get now
Speaker 6: with the cable cam. You go, you go, Wow, people
Speaker 6: watched football games like this. This seems incredibly boring. Yeah,
Speaker 6: it's very very old school.
Speaker 1: All right.
Speaker 2: Two things.
Speaker 1: Number one, if you miss this and you're just jumping
Speaker 1: on board with us today it is Monday, we're doing
Speaker 1: a rate my blank today, Rate my shirt. We'll pick
Speaker 1: a winner. All you have to do is take a
Speaker 1: photograph of your shirt that you're rocking today. Maybe it's
Speaker 1: a news Junkie shirt. Maybe it's an interesting one, a
Speaker 1: funny one, maybe it's something you're into. Whatever it is,
Speaker 1: send that in go to the News Junkie dot com
Speaker 1: sending it as a photo dispatch, and we will rate
Speaker 1: those in the final hour of the show today.
Speaker 2: That's number one. Number two, let's do jury duty.
Speaker 9: Before it is now in session, and so put your
Speaker 9: phone down and pay attention before we call the bailiff
Speaker 9: over to whip your ass.
Speaker 2: You're knowing jury duty with the News Junkie. You guys
Speaker 2: are gonna like this.
Speaker 1: You're gonna like this. I know, Okay, it's something that
Speaker 1: we've talked about on this show for years, and I
Speaker 1: think we've all kind of agreed that it's stupid, and
Speaker 1: finally a politician. All of them are so dumb, they're
Speaker 1: all losers, all of these politicians. Finally one of them
Speaker 1: is like, you know what, let's actually fix something stupid.
Speaker 1: Let's actually fix something that's stupid out there. I'll tell
Speaker 1: you what it is in a moment. Jury duty brought
Speaker 1: to you by the one the only mode the law

Speaker 1: out and there waiting to speaking about it. But you

Speaker 1: is Casper, Wyoming. What's the population there.
Speaker 9: Casper, Wyoming has a population of around sixty thousand people.

Speaker 10: larger ones in Wyoming.
Speaker 1: Damn Wyoming, get that. That's one of your bigger cities.
Speaker 1: Sixty thousand people in Casper, Wyoming.
Speaker 2: It's the second most populous city in the state after Cheyenne.
Speaker 1: God Dan really Mike Vang is a lawyer who has
Speaker 1: been focused on this issue for a while, and this
Speaker 1: particular representative, her name is Julie Jarvis, is finally going
Speaker 1: to do something about it. What is it, Well, this
Speaker 1: state representative from Casper, Wyoming is going to keep people
Speaker 1: from being charged with drunk driving. What if they're drunk
Speaker 1: riding a horse, mule, or a donkey. We have heard
Speaker 1: these stories year after year after year on the show,
Speaker 1: and we have argued that these are these are animals
Speaker 1: that move on their own and that do not have
Speaker 1: an engine behind them and is against the spirit of
Speaker 1: any kind of DUI or d WI law. But you
Speaker 1: go to jail, you get a DUI in most most
Speaker 1: states for this.
Speaker 2: But you're still kind of in control of them right now.
Speaker 7: Been on a trail with the horse. Is that know
Speaker 7: where they're going?
Speaker 4: Doesn't matter if you're kicking them as far as you
Speaker 4: can on the side, they're still the same.
Speaker 2: Never kill that horse.
Speaker 1: It's like putting a Tesla in auto drive. They are
Speaker 1: just you know, they're moving.
Speaker 7: Along unless you get the horse drunk.
Speaker 4: Now we have some issue problem, but I appreciate Wyoming
Speaker 4: finally making it known like this.
Speaker 7: Is the safest way should you have the choice between a.
Speaker 1: Car or horse?
Speaker 4: Is it not?
Speaker 1: Yeah, well they said they're going to change it so
Speaker 1: that vehicle does not include horses, mules, or other equines
Speaker 1: when ridden by a person. And the changes finally happen
Speaker 1: for those of you who just want to have a
Speaker 1: couple of drinks, get schnockered, enjoy your life, and they
Speaker 1: ride a horse.
Speaker 6: Can you imagine some person who has access to horses
Speaker 6: that just here's this news and.
Speaker 2: Goes loophole, Baby, let's go.
Speaker 6: Let's get some Uh, let's get some What do they
Speaker 6: call the thing you tie the horses to?
Speaker 1: No, no, no, no, there's gonna be.
Speaker 2: Something you tie your horse up to when you go
Speaker 2: to a place that's a horse pole.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's a horse. You get some horse poles at
Speaker 1: my local bar because I'm horsing it up. Baby, we're there.
Speaker 2: I can go home on my horse, nice and hammered,
Speaker 2: and who's going to stop me? Yeah? I would love that.
Speaker 4: Don't consider animal abuse though. Secondly, you said and other equines,
Speaker 4: And I was curious what falls under that.
Speaker 7: If your ass has a zebra, you can write that
Speaker 7: and not get a d want good.
Speaker 2: This is America. This is America.
Speaker 1: And if you're on a zebra or a or a donkey,
Speaker 1: or a mule or a zunkie for that matter, all
Speaker 1: of those things are very very real, for the record,
Speaker 1: and all of those things are not things you should
Speaker 1: get a DUI on. So I salute this politician who's
Speaker 1: who's actually trying to do something about it for once.
Speaker 8: Uh.
Speaker 1: A police officer is very very angry, and it's all
Speaker 1: about the way he was treated at a particular location.
Speaker 2: It was a Starbucks location. Hang on.
Speaker 1: I got to bring up the post that started all
Speaker 1: of this. The LA Sheriff posted about this, and they
Speaker 1: were getting a lot of heat on their Facebook page.
Speaker 1: Here's the post, says message from the Los Angeles County
Speaker 1: Sheriff's Department. The department is aware and deeply concerned about
Speaker 1: an incident that occurred at a local coffee shop in
Speaker 1: Norwalk on Friday. A deputy stopped for coffee and was
Speaker 1: served a cup bearing a hand drawn image of a pig,
Speaker 1: which is commonly used to demean law enforcement. This action
Speaker 1: was extremely offensive, inappropriate, and unacceptable. The deputy quickly reported
Speaker 1: the incident to the store manager, who advised the matter
Speaker 1: would be investigated. Upon learning of this incident from the employee,
Speaker 1: the sheriff immediately escalated the matter, contacted an individual in
Speaker 1: the coffee company's corporate security division and raised concerns. Our
Speaker 1: deputies served this community with professional some dedication, and commitment
Speaker 1: under difficult and dangerous circumstances. Our deputies are part of
Speaker 1: the community. YadA, YadA, YadA, YadA. They said, this is
Speaker 1: promoting hostility and division toward law enforcement. Let's see. Let
Speaker 1: me see if I can bring the actual cup up here.
Speaker 1: This is the cup that was handed to the police officer.
Speaker 1: I'll put it on see it now as well. And
Speaker 1: it's got a drawing. It's got a little pitch on
Speaker 1: the side of the Starbucks coffee cup and it says
Speaker 1: dibo accept or. It's very very hard to see what
Speaker 1: the text says. There's two words by each of the pigs,
Speaker 1: little legs.
Speaker 7: And white balls of the Starbucks employee, though.
Speaker 1: It does look like.
Speaker 7: Bur Have you been in a line for Starbucks, especially
Speaker 7: if you're.
Speaker 1: Supposed to be moving, you know, not drawing pigs. Here's
Speaker 1: what I want to know. I'm I'm gonna throw a
Speaker 1: flag on the field here. I want to I want
Speaker 1: to see their security video of this. I want to
Speaker 1: see this. Either this is the the Starbucks employee that
Speaker 1: so desperately just doesn't care about their job anymore, or
Speaker 1: what are the chances that this guy was like, I
Speaker 1: know what I could do.
Speaker 7: I mean, that's a good pig, though it's clearly a.
Speaker 1: Car I've seen better, and I've actually seen I've actually
Speaker 1: seen better, drawn by a friend of mine, who then
Speaker 1: handed it straight to a cop Alright, you're blowing away
Speaker 1: my my idea of what's happening here. Uh, this pig
Speaker 1: was put on this person's coffee. But they also said
Speaker 1: that the officer didn't like name the employee or something.
Speaker 1: Let me go back to the story. Excuse me. The
Speaker 1: action was extremely offensive. On the private Instagram account, the
Speaker 1: deputy targeted by the drawing said he stopped at Starbucks.
Speaker 1: The manager said he reported the incident, and they said
Speaker 1: it would be investigated. The Starbucks spokesperson condemned the employee's action,
Speaker 1: said the drawing appears to be a popular meme, not
Speaker 1: associated with law enforcement, that never should be delivered to
Speaker 1: a customer.
Speaker 2: So they're saying it was a meme.
Speaker 4: Okay, So security footage would also show if they did
Speaker 4: this to other customers.
Speaker 2: Yeah, are drawing the Yeah?
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, do they draw a little piggy on
Speaker 1: everybody's coffee? Or is this special for the police officers
Speaker 1: because they want to say you're you're a cop.
Speaker 2: Because if it is for the police officer, welcome on.
Speaker 6: Okay, So the little things, those little circles on me.
Speaker 6: I'm looking at the meme right now. Okay, look up,
Speaker 6: John pork is calling. Those are buttons on your phone
Speaker 6: where you would accept or decline a phone.
Speaker 1: Call, Okay, John pork Is, Oh, okay, Okay, that's what
Speaker 1: it is. It looks like on Pork. It looks like
Speaker 1: this pig who shows up on your phone and you
Speaker 1: could decline or accept the call. Okay, Now we need
Speaker 1: to know is this just for the police officer or
Speaker 1: was this like, hey, everybody gets a little meme, a
Speaker 1: little meme on your car.
Speaker 2: I still think it was just for the police officer,
Speaker 2: but this sounds.
Speaker 1: Like it might.
Speaker 7: I also love this John pork Is calling.
Speaker 2: I haven't seen this before, but I like it.
Speaker 1: There's merch and everything for this guy, John pork is
Speaker 1: calling as the name of the meme, T shirts all
Speaker 1: the rest. And what do you think is this officer?
Speaker 1: Has this officer been wronged? Should this person be fired?
Speaker 1: Let us know what your thoughts are. Send a dispatch
Speaker 1: at the news junkie dot com. Okay, quick break, we'll
Speaker 1: get some updates on the protest happening around the country,
Speaker 1: the situation in Iran. I got some emails coming in
Speaker 1: the three key ages in which your brain ages dramatically,
Speaker 1: are you close to one of them?
Speaker 2: We'll find out. That's coming up next in the News Junkie.
Speaker 1: Still got to get into that story about the guy
Speaker 1: where they found like a hundred skeletons inside his home.
Speaker 1: It's crazy, It's absolutely unhinged. But first, speaking of tips
Speaker 1: at the news junkie dot com. Christina emails the show
Speaker 1: and she says Females with Autism.
Speaker 2: That's the title.
Speaker 1: I was talking about how there's a new autistic Barbie,
Speaker 1: which is like all of the most cringe things you
Speaker 1: might think of when you think of autism, Like it
Speaker 1: came with a fidget spinner, and it's got the head
Speaker 1: the autistic kid headphones on, which is really just overstimulation
Speaker 1: headphones that people put on in loud environments and stuff.
Speaker 2: It's like very very token. And I also said why
Speaker 2: this could have been a ken thing?
Speaker 1: You know, I don't want to be pedantic and the
Speaker 1: most pedantic arena on earth when we're talking talking about
Speaker 1: like Barbie dolls and stuff. But for real, it seems
Speaker 1: that most of the people with autism tend to be men.
Speaker 1: And Christina says females with autism, Hey, best friends, I
Speaker 1: never do a hab. I just heard your segment about
Speaker 1: the autistic Barbie, and I agree with your take on
Speaker 1: why they made it, but I want to give you
Speaker 1: some info. I've been working with people with autism for
Speaker 1: about twenty years and I actually did my dissertation for
Speaker 1: my PhD on females with autism. Look at you go.
Speaker 1: You are partially right that they are widening the definition umbrella.
Speaker 1: But here's something you may not know. When the diagnosis
Speaker 1: of autism was first created about eighty years ago, it
Speaker 1: was based on observations of some atypically developing individuals, most
Speaker 1: of all of whom were boys. This means from the
Speaker 1: very beginning, our understanding of what autism looks like has
Speaker 1: been skewed towards what boys with autism look like. Now
Speaker 1: we have come to understand that girls and boys developed differently.
Speaker 1: What what are you saying? How could you? We have
Speaker 1: come to develop and understand that boys and girls developed
Speaker 1: differently beginning in the womb. And it's well known in
Speaker 1: the field of child development that girls' language skills developed
Speaker 1: faster and better than boys for many years.
Speaker 2: Isn't that true? God?
Speaker 1: Nothing is more clear than like fifth and sixth grade,
Speaker 1: where the young girls are mature far.
Speaker 2: Beyond the years of the young boys.
Speaker 1: The young girls can communicate on like a completely different
Speaker 1: level than the young boys, and they.
Speaker 2: Are surging ahead of them in every measurable way for
Speaker 2: like a year.
Speaker 1: For like a year, they have physically a lot of
Speaker 1: times will be bigger than the boys and certainly will
Speaker 1: pass them in language skills and stuff.
Speaker 2: So yeah, we're in agreement with there.
Speaker 1: So I'm known in the field of child development, the
Speaker 1: girls language skills developed faster and better than boys for
Speaker 1: many years. That means girls with autism are often missed
Speaker 1: because they may be speaking but not as well as
Speaker 1: they're typically developing peer girls. Unfortunately, the tools that detect
Speaker 1: these differences and girls are still insufficient. It is an
Speaker 1: area that needs to be improved. Love the show, keep
Speaker 1: up the good work, says Christina. Thank you for the email, Christina,
Speaker 1: and the information. Always appreciated. It literally is the case
Speaker 1: with autism. It's not just a meme that it was
Speaker 1: a lot of younger guys and literally their grandpop Oz
Speaker 1: would like smack them in the head and say, you know,
Speaker 1: have you tried stop being such an idiot? Like, well,
Speaker 1: hang on, fuck, I don't know if he's in like
Speaker 1: buck up material here.
Speaker 2: I think this person might be a little bit different.
Speaker 1: U Did they buck up? Sometimes? I imagine they might have.
Speaker 1: But but when when I look at all of this
Speaker 1: and I wonder which you would Christina agree on this front,
Speaker 1: I think it it is we have done such a level.
Speaker 2: Of damage in redefining everything all right.
Speaker 1: In twenty twenty six, if you look at a snapshot
Speaker 1: of probably two dozen words that could give you, you know,
Speaker 1: and you could go to the most controversial first, like nazi, racist, sexist, homophobic,
Speaker 1: all of these words PTSD, which we'll get to it
Speaker 1: a little bit as well, because there's a crazy story
Speaker 1: about that. Autism is certainly one of the ones that
Speaker 1: would be top of mind where we've opened the definition
Speaker 1: up so much that I'll see like young popular TikTokers
Speaker 1: who clearly have very little social communication issues, have a
Speaker 1: million followers on some kind of social media platform. They're
Speaker 1: popular on this one that one, or you know whatever,
Speaker 1: when you can think of right and it will be like,
Speaker 1: you know, self diagnosis Sunday, I'm definitely autistic, and you'll go.
Speaker 7: Oh, right, we talked about full blown reveal parties for autism.
Speaker 1: Or not right and when then when when you see
Speaker 1: somebody who has autism and then you see the person
Speaker 1: who's like, oh, you know, I put it in my
Speaker 1: bio on social media profiles, it's just so different that
Speaker 1: it makes you're blowing out the word. You're you're ruining it,
Speaker 1: You're ruining everything to do with the word. And to me,
Speaker 1: I'm old fashioned like this I think language matters. I
Speaker 1: think calling everybody fascist or or racist or autistic or
Speaker 1: you know whatever you want to throw around that day
Speaker 1: blows these words out, and then we just end up
Speaker 1: where we are now, where people are in totally different
Speaker 1: universes and don't even really care to find common agreement anymore.
Speaker 1: I'm bringing autism around to this larger thing, but I think,
Speaker 1: you know, you get the point.
Speaker 2: We've taken that.
Speaker 1: Word autism and stretched it out too much to be inclusive.
Speaker 1: Why are we being inclusive with autism? Autism is an
Speaker 1: exclusive thing. So the thing that the people who deal
Speaker 1: with this really I do care about them. I do
Speaker 1: want them to have better outcomes. I do find the
Speaker 1: study of folks who are dealing with these communication issues
Speaker 1: and other sensory issues that come along with autism to
Speaker 1: be super interesting. But I don't find Mattel going we
Speaker 1: made twenty of these. Barbie's got headphones and a fidget spinner,
Speaker 1: and she's total's autistic. BTW. Yeah, It's like, Okay, this
Speaker 1: seems a little bit lame to me, but maybe I'm alone.
Speaker 1: Let us know what you think. Tips at the news
Speaker 1: Junkie dot com or we'll get into these dispatches, which
Speaker 1: which include our rate my blanks for today being Monday,
Speaker 1: and we're doing rate my shirt. We've got a lot
Speaker 1: of them we got maybe we're gonna start looking at
Speaker 1: these in just a moment. Of course, the one from
Speaker 1: Seychelles is coming across as a broken image. But yeah,
Speaker 1: we'll look at all of these here momentarily from right.
Speaker 1: See late, I asked you earlier if you would be
Speaker 1: okay with something parenting wise.
Speaker 2: I want to show you something. I'll describe it.
Speaker 1: For everybody else. Here's a video. It's going quite viral,
Speaker 1: and it's of a father teaching his young child a lesson.
Speaker 1: And some people are like, what that is abusive? What
Speaker 1: are you doing? Oh?
Speaker 2: The father is over by the wall socket.
Speaker 1: He's laying on the carpet and he's over by the
Speaker 1: wall socket and his little infant child is very close
Speaker 1: to the wall socket.
Speaker 2: Right the dad.
Speaker 1: I'll turn it up for you guys. I mean that
Speaker 1: he pretends to put his finger into the electric socket
Speaker 1: the wall outlet while the baby is watching, and then
Speaker 1: he pretends to be getting electrocuted, and the baby starts crying.
Speaker 1: And already on chat you people, you you pearl clutchers
Speaker 1: are already saying too young, way, too young, What are
Speaker 1: you doing? Too young? Well, I want to know what
Speaker 1: Sea Lion thinks about this. Is it too young or
Speaker 1: is that what better time to teach him not to
Speaker 1: put something in the wall.
Speaker 2: I think it's too young because the child's not going
Speaker 2: to learn that. The child's scared. The child's scared, but
Speaker 2: it's he's not going to remember that.
Speaker 4: It's not like or if he does, he's not going
Speaker 4: to plug in anything when he's enough, and that's gonna
Speaker 4: be super annoying.
Speaker 1: Yeah, the child cried because daddy scared him. It's hilarious.
Speaker 7: Y see the sweet dad, poor baby.
Speaker 4: Yeah, you can't touch that.
Speaker 7: Remember that's no no, oh no. The dad's not even
Speaker 7: getting up.
Speaker 1: It's electrocuted.
Speaker 7: This's just getting.
Speaker 1: He has to show the baby that it's dangerous to
Speaker 1: touch that. Like when you go home, you should go over. Well,
Speaker 1: while Jackson's wandering around the kitchen and stuff, go over
Speaker 1: to a hot pot on the stove and grab it
Speaker 1: and oh my god, yeah, screaming seeing.
Speaker 4: That, like the where they grab like a stuffed animal
Speaker 4: and they just start punching it, and the baby like, uh,
Speaker 4: you know, we'll see. I think it's maybe for like
Speaker 4: giving medicine. This is a trend, but a lot more
Speaker 4: violent obviously. Yeah, and the baby did not take the
Speaker 4: medicine or the stuffed animal didn't, so they got punched,
Speaker 4: and all of a sudden, the baby's taking medicine.
Speaker 7: I'm not a parent, but apparently scared tactics. It can work.
Speaker 1: It can work. You know when when Dylan was a
Speaker 1: young kid, to teach him to be aware of strangers,
Speaker 1: I used to put a mustache on and drive in
Speaker 1: a creepy van around the neighborhood and try to get
Speaker 1: him inside the van. I would try to encourage him
Speaker 1: to get inside with me so he would understand what
Speaker 1: could happen if something went sound.
Speaker 7: And how many times did he get taken by a strangers?
Speaker 5: Show?
Speaker 1: He zero? So maybe one low digits low low single
Speaker 1: digit numbers that he has been kidnapped as of now,
Speaker 1: And I attribute that to these early on lessons.
Speaker 2: He also knows there was amer.
Speaker 6: That would be just I could the rest of the
Speaker 6: year just would be mean, just a little mustache, like
Speaker 6: a creeper van, no windows.
Speaker 7: That candy have the technology.
Speaker 1: All you hear it is the kid crying.
Speaker 10: You can't touch that.
Speaker 7: Kind of.
Speaker 1: How is this any different than throwing the kid in
Speaker 1: the pool to teach him how to flip over and float.
Speaker 7: I guess who's doing that.
Speaker 1: The teaching instructor. Hopefully I would think what you did, well,
Speaker 1: the dad is the instructor.
Speaker 7: You got to make sure you get dead up and
Speaker 7: show that you're alive.
Speaker 4: You're traumatizing the child. You have to play dead for
Speaker 4: a while first lactating at this moment, if you play
Speaker 4: dead for like two minutes, that baby is going to
Speaker 4: go okay. I'll never do that again. I will never
Speaker 4: do it now. Ceiling is too much of a pussy
Speaker 4: to do this so Jackson.
Speaker 6: If I did that with Jackson, he would think it's
Speaker 6: hilarious and want to recreate the situation. So instead of
Speaker 6: instead of playing dead and playing electrocute like like some
Speaker 6: sort of electrocution cause play, I did what real parents
Speaker 6: do and shelled out a few bucks to cover up
Speaker 6: the outlets.
Speaker 1: You think it's just cheap, yeah, but how much money?
Speaker 2: A lot of stuff in that room, I do.
Speaker 1: I do love the alternate universe where Sea Lane's making
Speaker 1: the noises this fake shock dad is and and then Jackson.
Speaker 1: Instead of crying, Jackson just Jackson just gets up and
Speaker 1: starts doing the electric slow. All right, we have a
Speaker 1: game we play at my household when Jackson gets a
Speaker 1: hold of a pair of tongs where he acts like
Speaker 1: they're shocking us, and the first couple of times will
Speaker 1: go like we're being shocked. That's crazy.
Speaker 2: Here's a shock man.
Speaker 7: What do you mean he gets a hold of a
Speaker 7: pair of tongs?
Speaker 2: Is that something that gets a hold of a paratonge
Speaker 2: like kitchen.
Speaker 1: He's a curious little guy. He wants to get a
Speaker 1: hold of everything. Any drawer that is not somehow locked
Speaker 1: shut is free game for this guy. You're my tongue
Speaker 1: drawer is one of them? Yes, well, this this is
Speaker 1: illustrating the problem, is it not? This is illustrating the
Speaker 1: problem that you have to teach kids because they want
Speaker 1: to get into all of this stuff. But I'm saying
Speaker 1: when we make the noise, he laughs. He thinks it's funny,
Speaker 1: so he keeps doing it, and then we get tired
Speaker 1: of it, and it's like, all.
Speaker 7: Right, so maybe get some fake blood.
Speaker 6: But if I if I do the fake electrocution thing,
Speaker 6: he's gonna either want me to do it again, or
Speaker 6: he's going to try and do it because he thinks
Speaker 6: it's funny.
Speaker 4: And then now we just have chaos and everyone's dead
Speaker 4: and you don't have that app that you check in
Speaker 4: and we don't find out till week later.
Speaker 1: All right, parents, let us know if you think this
Speaker 1: is a fair way to teach your kids lessons.
Speaker 2: I see these people who are like, you should never
Speaker 2: lie to your kids. Change hiding. Lying to my child
Speaker 2: is one of my favorite things to do.
Speaker 1: Who are these parents who say this like you should
Speaker 1: never I don't care if it's about like some person
Speaker 1: around certain days of the year that arrives with certain
Speaker 1: things you should never ever tell your kids.
Speaker 2: And it's not like you know that you're crazy, you're crazy.
Speaker 2: I used to tell Dylan all kinds of messed up stuff.
Speaker 7: Of course, and he turned out dress fine.
Speaker 1: He's good, you know, asked him, Ask him next time
Speaker 1: he's on the show. I literally told him because his
Speaker 1: mom lived next to this area with a bunch of woods,
Speaker 1: I was like, they're all sorts of like creatures and
Speaker 1: pedophiles in.
Speaker 2: Do you want to get touched, you better stand out
Speaker 2: of the woods.
Speaker 15: I told himfully, he doesn't think it's funny. I'm going
Speaker 15: to go in dad. I told him around here, I
Speaker 15: go into the woods.
Speaker 7: I'm writing all this down for my future child.
Speaker 1: I told him like, hey, there are evil creatures in
Speaker 1: the woods, and I said, I went I think I
Speaker 1: told him that I went out there once. Oh no,
Speaker 1: I told him we had another kid and he went
Speaker 1: out of the woods and we haven't seen him in
Speaker 1: seven years. And I was like, he's probably out there
Speaker 1: with the dangerous people now. And he'd be like, really,
Speaker 1: another kid, and I'd go, yeah, you don't want to
Speaker 1: end up like him a kid this week.
Speaker 7: In the woods.
Speaker 1: We got you got to keep it together. And I
Speaker 1: think lying to your kids to.
Speaker 4: Teach them like that riddle this is that twenty five,
Speaker 4: twenty six, maybe years old? Yeah, has he gone camping
Speaker 4: at all? Or he is now still hasn't adult?
Speaker 7: Well, he's out the woods and.
Speaker 1: You say he hasn't, He hasn't. I don't know if
Speaker 1: that's the fear that's no. We lie to Jackson all
Speaker 1: the time. When we took him to Disney on Ice,
Speaker 1: we told him it was over at the intermission, like
Speaker 1: we're out of here. You know, this is this is enough?
Speaker 2: You keep banging on people's chairs.
Speaker 6: We need to go, somebody, somebody tried to to correct
Speaker 6: me because I was I said like, oh, Jack, wasn't
Speaker 6: that a great show? All right, great show, let's go home.
Speaker 6: And somebody was like, uh no, this is just intermission.
Speaker 6: It's only there, it's only half over. And I went, no,
Speaker 6: this is the whole show, sir, this is the higher show.
Speaker 6: And it was a great show.
Speaker 1: And now we're going home.
Speaker 7: We're getting involved in business.
Speaker 2: I think he was thought he was helping me out,
Speaker 2: like he thought I was the dumb and dumb that thought.
Speaker 4: The show was over and he's the guy who showed
Speaker 4: up without a child and uh no.
Speaker 6: Then there was just last night where we were watching
Speaker 6: you know, when we watch YouTube, we don't we don't
Speaker 6: pay for YouTube like Shan does. Uh so we we
Speaker 6: get commercials and so. And now he's learned the word
Speaker 6: commercial and like, whenever a commercial comes on, he.
Speaker 1: Goes comarcle, comarcle.
Speaker 2: That did commercle.
Speaker 6: And then then Ashley decided we were done watching YouTube
Speaker 6: videos for the day and we wanted to watch Traders
Speaker 6: and he said commercle and we said, yeah, we have
Speaker 6: to wait for the commercials over it was.
Speaker 1: The longest commercial he's ever seen.
Speaker 6: Yeah, and we just he every like he didn't figure
Speaker 6: it out. Every ten minutes or so, he would look
Speaker 6: up and.
Speaker 7: Go, come on, play the audio for him when he's
Speaker 7: older and understand.
Speaker 1: I'm sure the department, children and families would take interest
Speaker 1: in some of these instances.
Speaker 2: But I think it's good. I think it's good.
Speaker 1: It brings me back to I always quote this with Courtney.
Speaker 1: Courtney and I quote this little girl all the time
Speaker 1: because there was this little girl and her mom tried
Speaker 1: to teach her a lesson like this. I think this
Speaker 1: is it.
Speaker 12: If somebody said, as a grey, come with me, I
Speaker 12: have puppies in my truck, what would you say, OUR say.
Speaker 1: Yes, You're like, no, no, little girl, we need you
Speaker 1: to know that they're scary creepy men.
Speaker 2: Just like I'd say yes, all these little kids.
Speaker 12: If somebody said, as a grey, come with me, I
Speaker 12: have puppies in my truck, what would you say?
Speaker 4: I say yes, I would say yes, should know to
Speaker 4: the censor or storebanks.
Speaker 7: Sometimes.
Speaker 1: Courney and I all the time are like, I'd say yes,
Speaker 1: is this another girl? So it's the strangers? Hey, little girl,
Speaker 1: do you want to come see the puppies in my car.
Speaker 1: What do you say? Oh, yeah, yeah, yes, no, She
Speaker 1: corrected her for ye yes, yeah, I understand this is
Speaker 1: a language thing. You want me to be more precise. Yes,
Speaker 1: yes is the word that I'm going to We had
Speaker 1: an unfortunate poop related incident with the baby this weekend.
Speaker 2: Oh my god, we do have to take a break.
Speaker 6: I'll be quick and uh so you know, long story short,
Speaker 6: he got a lot of poop on him and we're
Speaker 6: trying to tell We're trying to tell her. Listen, buddy,
Speaker 6: you don't touch poop. Right, we need to say say
Speaker 6: I don't touch poop, and he does I touch poop?
Speaker 6: And I said, Jackson, I don't don't touch touch poop poop.
Speaker 1: Say it.
Speaker 6: Say the whole thing. I don't touch poop, I touch poop.
Speaker 6: Refuse to play the right thing.
Speaker 2: I see lessons out there for these kids all over
Speaker 2: the place.
Speaker 7: Cigarettes.
Speaker 1: So, uh, we still gotta get to the one hundred
Speaker 1: skeletons found in this weird oseed backyard.
Speaker 2: I promise you I got the press conference on that.
Speaker 1: That is, uh yep, and a whole lot more before
Speaker 1: we wrap things up here On a Monday. It's coming
Speaker 1: up next. I'm gonna use Chunkie. Somebody was responding to
Speaker 1: my uh rant earlier about the war on language. You know,
Speaker 1: it starts with autism, but there's like a million different
Speaker 1: things that people just redefine everything and then the words
Speaker 1: all meaning, which is basically the intention of this. And
Speaker 1: it's it's really like, I have a couple of core beliefs,
Speaker 1: you know, I have. I have different frameworks through which
Speaker 1: I look at things, and.
Speaker 2: I this guy I believes stuff I did. Yeah, I
Speaker 2: have a philosophy.
Speaker 1: My philosophy that guides me is that I want as
Speaker 1: many positive outcomes for as many Americans as possible, and
Speaker 1: all of this stuff that I look through, the decisions
Speaker 1: that I want made, and the political changes and stuff
Speaker 1: I want to see made are through that lens of
Speaker 1: it should get the most people the most positive outcomes,
Speaker 1: and outcomes are the most important thing right for Americans.
Speaker 1: One of my guiding principles is that like political people
Speaker 1: ruin everything. People who are very political activist types. Doesn't
Speaker 1: matter what side they're affiliated with or whatever. Political people
Speaker 1: ruin everything, and they ruin language or they've been on
Speaker 1: a mission in many cases to just completely ruin words
Speaker 1: by overusing them, calling everybody this, calling everybody that, And
Speaker 1: somebody said did you see that last night? Which I
Speaker 1: did not notice, is because I didn't watch. During the
Speaker 1: Golden Globes, they no longer said actress for any of
Speaker 1: the awards. They've changed and they don't they say female
Speaker 1: actor in a series or whatever. They don't say actress anymore.
Speaker 1: That's kind of what you were talking.
Speaker 7: About, made that announcement a while back.
Speaker 1: It's not it's not what I but it's not what
Speaker 1: I was talking about, because like if you there's there's
Speaker 1: things where it's it's mostly political people trying to make
Speaker 1: something happen, like Latin X that they really were pushing
Speaker 1: for a while, which nobody hated more than actually Spanish people.
Speaker 1: But oh and they when they try to make people,
Speaker 1: they try to make you bend to their their will
Speaker 1: by saying things differently and changing the way you talk
Speaker 1: about stuff.
Speaker 2: But I don't think it's the same with this.
Speaker 1: The word actor isn't, as far as I know, a
Speaker 1: male or female word. The word actor was. You know,
Speaker 1: there's no gender implied with the word actor to begin with.
Speaker 1: So that's why we didn't need the word actress for once.
Speaker 1: It was like the word that we had before was fine,
Speaker 1: And then they kind of were like, oh, let's let's
Speaker 1: refer to women who are actors as actresses. Actor can
Speaker 1: be men or woman. That was always the way that
Speaker 1: word worked as far as I was aware. I think
Speaker 1: that traditionally doesn't have to be male or female. So
Speaker 1: actor in a movie can be a male or a
Speaker 1: female actor. So they said in the awards I guess
Speaker 1: last night best female Actor in a movie. They're still
Speaker 1: splitting up the roles with genders and awards, which is
Speaker 1: totally fine, but I just I don't think that's the same.
Speaker 1: I think the push against actress was like, why do
Speaker 1: we need a different word for this? Like calling flight
Speaker 1: attendants stewardess is right, so like stewardess is obviously there's
Speaker 1: an implication. Yeah, this is a woman that we're talking about,
Speaker 1: and it was like, hey, some of these people are men,
Speaker 1: you know, who are in more so now than ever,
Speaker 1: who work in this field.
Speaker 6: I think another version of that that's uh much less
Speaker 6: used is to call a female comedian comedian, right, yeah.
Speaker 7: I think the median I barely hear, but female comedian
Speaker 7: all the time.
Speaker 1: Yeah, comedian works fine, Comedian covers the bases that you need.
Speaker 1: So I think that's not part of this like always
Speaker 1: changing up language for people, And mostly it's just done
Speaker 1: by people, especially when they know they have some sort.
Speaker 2: Of power to try to make you do whatever they
Speaker 2: say that week.
Speaker 4: That's fascinating enough, though, I did like look up when
Speaker 4: the word actress started being used, any idea.
Speaker 2: No, maybe when they started letting women on stage.
Speaker 1: Well, correct, women have been on stage and screen, or
Speaker 1: at least on screen since you know, since TV and
Speaker 1: movies have been around women.
Speaker 6: But like back in the like Shakespeare days, it was
Speaker 6: unacceptable for a woman to be on stage.
Speaker 14: Men played the women roles back then, right, So the
Speaker 14: word actress started being is round seventeen hundred, Yeah, merging
Speaker 14: after women were allowed to be on the English stage
Speaker 14: starting in sixteen fifty six, but for decades female performers
Speaker 14: were simply called actors, with actress becoming a distinct term
Speaker 14: later influenced by the French artrice.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 7: See, I think I think the actors it has been
Speaker 7: going off for a minute, but.
Speaker 1: It's not like they're trying to come up with some
Speaker 1: new word and it's like Hey, the default word here
Speaker 1: is fine. It makes sense, and linguistically it's okay, So
Speaker 1: I think that's a little bit different. All right, Oh boy,
Speaker 1: we have so many things to try to work in
Speaker 1: in not a huge amount of time to do it.
Speaker 1: I have lots of your rate my shirts here for
Speaker 1: rate my blank on a Monday. I want you to
Speaker 1: get the last ones in right now. Take a picture
Speaker 1: of your shirt, go to the newsjunkie dot com upload
Speaker 1: it as a photo dispatch. It takes like two seconds
Speaker 1: to do this. We'll give us a big fat final
Speaker 1: segment here so we can look at all the submissions
Speaker 1: and we can choose our winner. Who's going to win
Speaker 1: for rate my blank. This is Monday's edition rate my Shirt.
Speaker 1: We got to get to the three key ages your

Speaker 1: the ice situation emails. Oh my god, there's a lot,
Speaker 1: and I don't know even the one hundred skeletons in
Speaker 1: a yard thing. I didn't even pay that off. All
Speaker 1: of that is coming up next and then he use chunky.
Speaker 1: All right, as we wrap things up, let me pay
Speaker 1: off all the teases of left dangling out there. This
Speaker 1: guy has been arrested. They called it the House of Horrors.
Speaker 1: I have the press conference here. It's pretty long. I
Speaker 1: wonder if they'll give us like an overview. At the
Speaker 1: beginning of this, a Pennsylvania man is facing more than
Speaker 1: five hundred charges after investigators say they discovered more than.
Speaker 2: One hundred human skeletal remains in his home.
Speaker 1: This guy at an Instagram where he was selling all
Speaker 1: these body parts and stuff, and courty was looking at
Speaker 1: yesterday and he would post, you be these are the
Speaker 1: remains of a young girl and she's looking for her
Speaker 1: forever home. And you can put the put her skeleton
Speaker 1: in your house. Oh, because you have so many and
Speaker 1: just was he apparently was stealing them. Yeah. Everyone, My
Speaker 1: name's Tanner rous On, the attorney of Delaware.
Speaker 3: County, and we are here today because of the arrest
Speaker 3: of thirty four year old.
Speaker 1: Jazz In Gerlock of Pennsylvania.
Speaker 3: Over the course of the last several weeks, detectives from
Speaker 3: Jayden Borough as well as Delaware County CID became aware
Speaker 3: that from November at twenty twenty five up until two
Speaker 3: days ago January of twenty twenty six, Okay, Mount Mariah
Speaker 3: Cemetery had been burglarized by at that point an unknown individual.
Speaker 2: Twenty six separate.
Speaker 3: Mausoleums and our underground burial sites had been torn into
Speaker 3: and lack of a better word, desecrated.
Speaker 1: Jesus, he grabbed the bone. Investigation took place.
Speaker 3: Jayden deserves a hell of a lot of credit on
Speaker 3: this for doing good old fashioned police work, going through LPRs,
Speaker 3: tracking physical evidence, piecing together a suspect. Cooperating with CID.
Speaker 3: We developed that suspect relate in weight. We eventually watched
Speaker 3: and caught mister Gerlock as he desecrated yet another monument
Speaker 3: as recently as two years ago.
Speaker 1: Wow, they caught him busting in again to steal more
Speaker 1: skeletal remains, and he had more than one hundred bodies
Speaker 1: at his house or like you know, the skeletal remains
Speaker 1: of these bodies.
Speaker 4: Security at these places, considering the thousands of dollars people
Speaker 4: paid to get buried at cemeteries.
Speaker 1: Yes, but the thing is, I don't think there's a
Speaker 1: huge risk that people will do this and until they do,
Speaker 1: and that's what's happening in this case. Jonathan Gurlock is
Speaker 1: his name, and by the way, he looks just like
Speaker 1: you might expect like.
Speaker 6: The person who robs graves and sells the bonds four
Speaker 6: he lod at creepstash. My gosh, no no, yeah, go
