Speaker 1: House. Everybody doing on a Monday. Be good? How are you, sir? Good? Good?
Speaker 1: You have a happy Thanksgiving? Everybody? Yes? So really it
Speaker 1: was mostly good until Saturday. Oh great, what happened? We
Speaker 1: had something turned south on you.
Speaker 2: I just as on the same thing, and he just responded,
Speaker 2: I'll tell you yeah, during the first segment.
Speaker 1: So you got through a Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, all things
Speaker 1: are good on your Yeah, those things were good.
Speaker 3: And then sometime Saturday afternoon, I suffered a great tragic loss.
Speaker 1: Oh my god, Oh my god.
Speaker 3: Sabrina guessed that it was one of my ice machines.
Speaker 1: But that is not the case. No, this is a
Speaker 1: good guess is a far more devastating and possibly expensive
Speaker 1: to fix. Guests, just to check in, how many ice
Speaker 1: machines are still up and run? Just three? Three ice?
Speaker 1: We're okay. I have four now, we're okay, We're okay.
Speaker 1: So it wasn't your ice machine that was down. Is
Speaker 1: it a fridge? Is it a fridge that all three
Speaker 1: refrigerators are up to snuff. They're up to par.
Speaker 4: Okay, God, was it your television?
Speaker 3: No, television's in great shape. Used it a lot over
Speaker 3: the Thanksgiving break.
Speaker 1: Please please, tell me it wasn't LEXI, please tell me.
Speaker 1: Oh my gosh, I would not be. I don't know.
Speaker 4: That would be a very expensive fix.
Speaker 1: I don't know. I'm just I'm asking questions here. Okay,
Speaker 1: LEXI wasn't even that expensive? Undus, No, but worth a
Speaker 1: million to you.
Speaker 3: Sometime during the afternoon of Saturday, November twenty ninth, my
Speaker 3: couch recliner ceased to operate.
Speaker 1: Oh god, no, hold on, was it only yours and
Speaker 1: not your wife's?
Speaker 5: Oh?
Speaker 1: How many? How many fat guy jokes? Did she love
Speaker 1: your way? Nothing? No, she even she's using it as
Speaker 1: a bartering tool. So, for example, we always fight over,
Speaker 1: uh not who gets to pick what we watch at night,
Speaker 1: but who has to pick what we watch at night.
Speaker 1: I don't want to pick. Well, I don't want to pick.
Speaker 1: And so she said, uh, I will I switch spots
Speaker 1: with you if you if you pick everything we watch
Speaker 1: tonight and it better be good. And I was like,
Speaker 1: and I just I pulled up a chair and just
Speaker 1: put it in front of my seat and put my
Speaker 1: legs up on the chair and said, what we watch?
Speaker 1: We watch that much? And they need to set in
Speaker 1: ninety degrees if you know what my back does not
Speaker 1: feel very good today, and I blame the couch. At
Speaker 1: least it didn't get stuck in the out position, which
Speaker 1: has happened to a family member of mine. They had
Speaker 1: a recliner issue, and they.
Speaker 4: Hadney looks so goofy trying to get.
Speaker 1: On off that. Oh yeah, because you have to roll.
Speaker 1: You have to roll to the to the to the
Speaker 1: not reclined couch and then kind of get out. It's weird.
Speaker 2: I've done the full split and then kind of waddle
Speaker 2: to the front.
Speaker 1: This is what happens after Thanksgiving though, because I mean,
Speaker 1: I'll tell you even myself, my chair is probably on
Speaker 1: its last legs as well. I got on. I got
Speaker 1: on the scale this morning, and I look down and
Speaker 1: and I go, oh my god. And and Courty's like,
Speaker 1: don't don't even weigh yourself. This week it was Thanksgiving,
Speaker 1: I have do you have a smart scale?
Speaker 3: Yes, hey, I have a smart scale that I haven't
Speaker 3: used in quite a while.
Speaker 1: And I got a notification from the app on Thanksgiving Day,
Speaker 1: Thanksgiving Day that says, hey, you haven't weighed yourself, you
Speaker 1: know in a couple of weeks. Wait, maybe it's time
Speaker 1: to step on and you know, get back, get back
Speaker 1: in business.
Speaker 2: I said on Thanksgiving, damn mine, maybe you should shut up.
Speaker 1: Yeah that's no good, that's that's no good. But I
Speaker 1: got on the scale and she goes, don't even check.
Speaker 1: Nobody would ever get on the scale this week. You're
Speaker 1: not supposed to check it. See how much way it
Speaker 1: was Thanksgiving. We're gonna have a good week. And I'm like,
Speaker 1: oh god, two sixteen, what is happening right now? So
Speaker 1: I got I got a lot of work to do.
Speaker 1: But it was a fun It was a good Thanksgiving break.
Speaker 1: I hope everyone had a good time. Well, we'll go
Speaker 1: over all the things that went down at some point
Speaker 1: during the show today. Let's start out as we always do, though,
Speaker 1: Let's put our ears to the ground, our fingers on
Speaker 1: the pulse. Let's see what's happening in this great, big,
Speaker 1: wide world of ours and buy a show of hands.
Speaker 1: Who watched the Macy's Thanksgiving Day parade? I did not
Speaker 1: all of it, but wow, you know all of it?
Speaker 2: Yeah, it was kind of hard to find until I
Speaker 2: actually googled it. We saw a lot of the I
Speaker 2: went to Sling TV and it's like, here's a camera
Speaker 2: that we just posted up in one corner and we
Speaker 2: can catch.
Speaker 1: All the crowd talk and there's a webcam.
Speaker 2: Finally, like the last thirty minutes, I realized Peacock was
Speaker 2: streaming it live like the actual with the announcers.
Speaker 1: And yeah, they got al Roker, they got the whole
Speaker 1: crew there, they got all the you know, all the
Speaker 1: Macy's Thanksgiving Day balloons were going by. Uh, there was
Speaker 1: a lot of Buster Rhymes trying to lip sync and
Speaker 1: not doing a great job.
Speaker 2: I'll tell you what though, of all the songs to
Speaker 2: pick to lip sync, that's one where like can anyone
Speaker 2: really call him out when no one can wrap it?
Speaker 4: But like two white ladies on TikTok.
Speaker 1: I also like, why why now? What is it? Because
Speaker 1: that's been a TikTok trend or something. Why is Buster
Speaker 1: Rhymes being trotted out at the Macy's Thanksgiving Day parade
Speaker 1: because it just got.
Speaker 2: The Lifetime Achievement Award of whatever award show he got.
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, there was what was itv m VA?
Speaker 1: I don't know, I believe you though.
Speaker 3: I believe it was VMA's because I remember I was like, oh,
Speaker 3: busta and then he was because he did like a
Speaker 3: super cut mash up of all of.
Speaker 1: His hits, right, So he was out there. There was
Speaker 1: a bunch of great performances. I mean, nobody really performed,
Speaker 1: but there was. There was a bunch of great lip
Speaker 1: sync performances. And then there was mister Fantasy. Mister Fantasy.
Speaker 1: I don't know what that was. We can get into
Speaker 1: that at some point, but that al Roker out there
Speaker 1: doing his man on the street thing, and he would
Speaker 1: go up to people. And this young girl who he
Speaker 1: went up to has gone viral. So she'll start us
Speaker 1: out in our opening clip today. Let's listen in Hi, Elia,
Speaker 1: So how old are you? Today's your birthday? Happy birthday?
Speaker 1: And how old? Who? She's seven? It's her birthday, she's seven.
Speaker 1: She's on TV for Turkey Day. Our roker is talking
Speaker 1: to her. Now they're gonna give her something. They're going
Speaker 1: to gift this young girl something here, and let's see
Speaker 1: what happened. Are you excited to see the Rockets? Would
Speaker 1: you be?
Speaker 5: With?
Speaker 1: Well, guess what, Ellie, We've got a very special something
Speaker 1: for you. Look here, you've got a golden ticket. Now
Speaker 1: you get to see the Radio City Musical Rockets. Are
Speaker 1: you excited?
Speaker 4: I did that yesterday?
Speaker 1: I did that yesterday.
Speaker 3: Did you guys have that moment growing up where your
Speaker 3: parents had to tell you that if somebody gets you
Speaker 3: a gift that you already have, not to tell them
Speaker 3: because my parents, I straight up just said it.
Speaker 1: Whoa, I'm so glad to have two of these. Now
Speaker 1: she goes, we did that yesterday, and Al Roker's like,
Speaker 1: son of a bitch. Also, I'm not coming down on
Speaker 1: I don't want any heat about this from rockets lovers
Speaker 1: or whatever. But I don't know how relevant the Rockets
Speaker 1: are in twenty twenty five with this little kid. She's
Speaker 1: a child, for God's sake. I don't know when.
Speaker 3: When I went up to New York last week or
Speaker 3: two weeks ago, or however long ago, it was because
Speaker 3: this break we were on felt like.
Speaker 1: We share.
Speaker 3: We had the same flight as a friend of ours
Speaker 3: who with his wife and is a young daughter, and
Speaker 3: one of the things they went to do was go.
Speaker 1: See the Rockets, like she wanted to. She's in the
Speaker 1: dance so they wanted to see the you know, the
Speaker 1: rockets in the radio city. Maybe it's still popular. I
Speaker 1: don't know.
Speaker 2: I get when you go to the zoo, you know,
Speaker 2: when things are just like moving and in your face,
Speaker 2: you're still entertained, regardless of how long.
Speaker 1: They've been around.
Speaker 2: Well, I mean on TikTok that the Rockets, there's one
Speaker 2: girl who, like, I don't know, has done something the
Speaker 2: Rockets have never done as far as how far she
Speaker 2: could kill her.
Speaker 1: Feet up yeah, spread, I don't know. I'm impressed with them.
Speaker 1: But this little girl had already gone. So she was like,
Speaker 1: I did that yesterday. Al Roker summarily executed her on
Speaker 1: the street. He was just like another the radio shoo music,
Speaker 1: old Rockets. Are you excited yesterday? He did it yesterday? Oh,
Speaker 1: my colleague, will you get to see him again? Yeah?
Speaker 1: So there was a moment with.
Speaker 2: Yeah, Josh's wife Melissa, and uh, you know, I will
Speaker 2: ask if we get permission to share the clip because
Speaker 2: I do have it.
Speaker 4: And she was being interviewed by Al Roker many years ago.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, and well then it was on TV. We
Speaker 1: could share the clip.
Speaker 2: But she gets a call from the weather man and
Speaker 2: he's like, oh hey, Melissa, I'm getting you a Pepperoni
Speaker 2: pizza and she goes, I don't like Pepperoni.
Speaker 1: I love the unpredictability of the kid answer because you got,
Speaker 1: you got no clue what they're about to fire at you.
Speaker 3: And Al Roker's response, which is, I think he wanted
Speaker 3: to maybe curse. But remember how they said on Home Alone,
Speaker 3: like they've tried to keep Joe Pesci from using curse
Speaker 3: words on set, because.
Speaker 1: Al Roker goes, well, g golly, you get to see
Speaker 1: him again. If you had a live translation of this
Speaker 1: from Al Roker to street speak, that g golly would
Speaker 1: be like, f U c word? How dare you ruin
Speaker 1: my live shot? Old Roker? This doesn't happen to a
Speaker 1: seven year old, So there you go. It was fun.
Speaker 1: I know, I there's never like there's so many commercials.
Speaker 1: It's a commercial within a commercial within a commercial, it's
Speaker 1: commercial itself.
Speaker 3: That's why I, like I said, I only watched bits
Speaker 3: and pieces of the parade because young Jackson typically rules
Speaker 3: the roost when it comes to what's on the television,
Speaker 3: and so one that when the commercials would come on,
Speaker 3: he would start screaming other things he wanted to see
Speaker 3: that wasn't the parade, Like what uh me Mac, which
Speaker 3: is Mickey mouse ko ko.
Speaker 1: He's still on that.
Speaker 3: He's got a new he's got a new favorite song
Speaker 3: that he doesn't know the title of, so he just
Speaker 3: calls it rock.
Speaker 1: Okay, so he just gives yelling a rock. But it's
Speaker 1: a New Age Girl by Dead Eye Dick where they
Speaker 1: yell rock, and that's the only part that he remembers.
Speaker 1: I would like if the newest song that Jackson really
Speaker 1: fell in love with was because of the Thanksgiving parade,
Speaker 1: and it was the bust rhyme song. And if Jackson
Speaker 1: could go like that would be you'd go viral. Your
Speaker 1: kid would go viral if you could pull that off.
Speaker 1: So I wish you were. I mean, you know, he
Speaker 1: doesn't have the fast lyrics yet, but he's worked hard.
Speaker 1: I don't die, I know, I don't certainly after all
Speaker 1: these years, a lot of people traveling for Thanksgiving break
Speaker 1: for those of you who braved the airport's congratulations for
Speaker 1: making it out alive. Some of the animations I saw
Speaker 1: of the flights over Thanksgiving, I'll give it to some
Speaker 1: of you for the stream side of things, just unbelievable.
Speaker 1: The amount of flights go around like it shows a
Speaker 1: map what I'm looking at here, and you know, each
Speaker 1: plane is represented by a plane on the map flying around,
Speaker 1: and it looks like you found an infestation somewhere. It does. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it looks like spreading around of a virus across the
Speaker 1: world and it just getting absolutely everywhere. It is wild
Speaker 1: the amount of travel that goes down over Thanksgiving weekend.
Speaker 1: And there was a lot of wintery, cold, cold weather.
Speaker 1: There was a lot of no there's a lot of
Speaker 1: things that reminded me how grateful I am to live
Speaker 1: where I am. This weekend one of the things I
Speaker 1: fell into. They were like, well, winter has arrived in
Speaker 1: this remote outpost, which is the coldest, you know, city
Speaker 1: of a certain size in the world in Russia. And
Speaker 1: they said, well, we woke up this morning and it's
Speaker 1: negative sixty eight degrees. Don't worry though. The high later
Speaker 1: on today is a negative forty eight, so it's going
Speaker 1: to be a beautiful, toasty, toasty day here. And I'm like,
Speaker 1: thank God, thank God, I don't live in any of
Speaker 1: these places, for God's sake. It's rough. It is rough.
Speaker 1: So I'm glad to have everybody back on board. I'm
Speaker 1: glad that your Thanksgiving went well. I want to talk
Speaker 1: about when we come back, and you guys think about
Speaker 1: this for a second. But I watched all the coverage
Speaker 1: on Black Friday as people started to do like the
Speaker 1: whole shopping mayhem thing, and I really get the vibe
Speaker 1: that Black Friday is just it's just dead. It's just
Speaker 1: And I don't know who's to blame because they're saying
Speaker 1: that younger people are still going out and going shopping
Speaker 1: on Black Friday. Maybe I'm in the older category now,
Speaker 1: like I have no interest in it and I no
Speaker 1: longer see the things that we used to see. There
Speaker 1: used to be a Black Friday death count. There was
Speaker 1: a website which was counting the amount of people who
Speaker 1: died because they got into males as they went into
Speaker 1: the front of a Walmart for a toaster oven or something.
Speaker 1: I don't feel like it happens anymore. I don't know
Speaker 1: if it happens anymore. I want to dive into if so, why,
Speaker 1: and we'll get into that world. We have a lot
Speaker 1: on deck on a very very busy Monday on the
Speaker 1: show Welcome to December, Stick with Us Today, and an
Speaker 1: announcement about something for Cyber Monday. All of that is
Speaker 1: coming up next on the news junk ho Ho five
Speaker 1: days off. I tried to stick the landing and I
Speaker 1: was at the e and it's coming up next on
Speaker 1: the news Junkie. I got a bone to pick. I
Speaker 1: don't know if this is true or not. I'm just
Speaker 1: I'm going off of what Chad says during the show,
Speaker 1: and that's eighty two percent lies. I think eighty two
Speaker 1: percent lies, five percent stuff trying to make us fight
Speaker 1: about things. And perhaps this is in the that category
Speaker 1: right there. But somebody said, hey, Sean, why were you
Speaker 1: not present in the radio station Thanksgiving video? And I said, well,
Speaker 1: is this true? I watched like the first thirty seconds
Speaker 1: of it or something, and it seemed like it was
Speaker 1: it was everybody from the radio station. And I said,
Speaker 1: I sent in a video. I said, if this is true,
Speaker 1: chat person Sabrino was the one I think who did
Speaker 1: the Thanksgiving video? Did I get Did I get cut
Speaker 1: out of the cutting room floor with my Thanksgiving message?
Speaker 4: I guess you have to watch past thirty second show.
Speaker 1: That's the whole thing. I know, all these people, you
Speaker 1: know what I thought. Okay, here's the brutal thing. And
Speaker 1: first of all, did I get cut out or no?
Speaker 5: No?
Speaker 1: Everyone was in. Okay, Okay, here's probably what you were
Speaker 1: the first one to send your video in uh later
Speaker 1: on this. Yeah, yeah, here's the funny thing. I don't
Speaker 1: know if you guys did this or not, but I
Speaker 1: got an email some Brittis Center an email saying I
Speaker 1: want to put together a video for Instagram for the
Speaker 1: radio station with everybody saying happy Thanksgiving. I took that
Speaker 1: very literally. So I was there's construction going on in
Speaker 1: the studio. I go into my office and I turn
Speaker 1: on my camera and I'm like, happy Thanksgiving, everybody, and
Speaker 1: I do like a peace sign. And I thought that
Speaker 1: everybody was just supposed to say Happy Thanksgiving and a
Speaker 1: chain of showing me thanksivy IY Thanksgiving, tive a thousand.
Speaker 2: That was the vision it was. I said, uh see,
Speaker 2: happy Thanksgiving. That's all I need.
Speaker 4: If you want to say something more, give me a
Speaker 4: good pause.
Speaker 2: Radio people, and there were, and they're very sweet messages,
Speaker 2: mind you, but there are some folks who left longer
Speaker 2: ones and I had no cutting points. So majority was
Speaker 2: supposed to be happy Thanksgiving, heavy Thanksgiving, Happy Thanksgiving, I.
Speaker 1: Said, radio people, radio pig like since the dawn of
Speaker 1: time Thanksgiving everybody. I was like, you know what, I'm
Speaker 1: listening to real radio.
Speaker 4: Absolutely, thank you so very much.
Speaker 1: I wanted it to go, Oh, I God, I'm gonna
Speaker 1: The reason why this person doesn't think I'm in the
Speaker 1: radio station Thanksgiving message is because I just said Happy Thanksgiving, peace,
Speaker 1: and everybody else was like, no, Thanksgiving is a day
Speaker 1: about family and turkey.
Speaker 2: And in the same sea Lane was my favorite one
Speaker 2: because he had Jackson say Happy Thanksgiving and I.
Speaker 1: All together and they got distracted. Was very cute.
Speaker 2: And then I there's some other ones where I'm like,
Speaker 2: I don't want to anyone to feel like I'm cutting
Speaker 2: them off.
Speaker 1: So should have done it? You should have just brutally
Speaker 1: cut every single one of them, like everybody, Like you
Speaker 1: could tell, like somebody somebody's sitting in front of a
Speaker 1: fireplace with a you know, old fashioned and they're hand
Speaker 1: and you could tell they're about to go on a
Speaker 1: long store. It was a happy Thanksgiving. Just cut immediately.
Speaker 1: I should have known, I should. You definitely made the cut.
Speaker 2: I just try to spread out the very long messages
Speaker 2: with the short ones in between.
Speaker 1: Yeah. I didn't see myself because I was just buried.
Speaker 1: I guess I sent I sent. I sent the one
Speaker 1: with Jackson to Ashley and she was like, I've sent,
Speaker 1: I've showed this to everybody at the office.
Speaker 3: It's thecuest thing in the world. And then I sent
Speaker 3: her Ryan Holmes response and she was like, what a monster.
Speaker 3: And I was like, I go, well, you're kind of
Speaker 3: You're technically correct.
Speaker 5: So.
Speaker 1: I forgot though. Everybody in the radio station is going
Speaker 1: to want to do like a bit and they're gonna
Speaker 1: bliberty blab even though the instructions Sabrina's instructions. I was
Speaker 1: very said it said, it said, please say just happy
Speaker 1: Thanksgiving and then you could stop and then you if
Speaker 1: you have more things to say, well then maybe I
Speaker 1: can work that in somewhere else. A bunch of monsters.
Speaker 1: That's what happens over here. We are people in talk y,
Speaker 1: people who do not read directions, people who refuse to
Speaker 1: be short in there in their discussions. Save for us,
Speaker 1: I think maybe I don't know. Celan even did a
Speaker 1: bit himself. Okay, A couple of things, A lot of
Speaker 1: things to hit on here on the first day of December,
Speaker 1: for God's sake, Uh, this is oh is this is this? Uh?
Speaker 1: Melissa on the Oh no, no, no no, this is
Speaker 1: a different clip. Should I save this for when we
Speaker 1: talk to Amy Coffee call felt later. I mean, she
Speaker 1: wasn't in studio for that, but was she?
Speaker 2: But you said Black Friday may be dead, and this,
Speaker 2: all right, is a great example of is it dead
Speaker 2: or just the younguins don't even know what it is?
Speaker 1: Okay, let's see because that's interesting because and some of
Speaker 1: the stories I saw, I've got him around here somewhere.
Speaker 1: It was like, in fact, here's a headline. Older folks
Speaker 1: are over going to story stores on Black Friday, and
Speaker 1: this story says gen Z are the keepers of the
Speaker 1: black back Friday flame. Bloomberg reported the stores with the
Speaker 1: longest lines where those popular with gen Z like Kendrick Scott,
Speaker 1: Bath and body Works and addicted ed I k t ed.
Speaker 1: So the gen Z people were still out there in
Speaker 1: force on Black Friday and nobody else does. But you're
Speaker 1: saying in this case, this is at the Florida Mall.
Speaker 1: I guess it was the opposite. Let's listen in, let's
Speaker 1: see whats happening here? All right? Good morning, sir, How
Speaker 1: are you? I'm glad are that's one of the best
Speaker 1: deals in the store. Of the two towels you're looking at.
Speaker 1: Oh wow, I didn't know that you were three dollars each.
Speaker 1: That's a good deal. Yeah, I picked up two people Friday.
Speaker 1: Thank you. Okay, this guy's like I picked up. I
Speaker 1: could never be more excited than I am right now.
Speaker 1: This is what this is. This is this actually proves
Speaker 1: my point. I'm glad you said this. It used to
Speaker 1: be that if you were in the stores on Black Friday,
Speaker 1: you couldn't conduct an interview like this. People were trampled people. Yeah,
Speaker 1: people would be fighting each other over a big screen TV.
Speaker 4: Or lining up at two am the night before.
Speaker 1: Yeah, what intense. They were hanging out with each other
Speaker 1: they got last Black Friday. Yeah, playing Canasto with their
Speaker 1: friends to try to see if they could get you know,
Speaker 1: the first one hundred of PlayStation sevens or whatever. It's
Speaker 1: kind of crazy. And now it's a guy getting some
Speaker 1: hand towels at the Florida All. Okay, the towel at
Speaker 1: three dollar towel? Good morning, how are you? I'm good,
Speaker 1: I'm good.
Speaker 2: Deals in the store.
Speaker 1: The two towels you're looking at, Oh wow.
Speaker 2: I didn't know that.
Speaker 6: I like that.
Speaker 1: Oh wow, I didn't know camera behind me, you know
Speaker 1: what that came out? He probably wants to put the
Speaker 1: towels down because he doesn't want to, but he was
Speaker 1: only doing in front of the news guy, so he's like, uh,
Speaker 1: just came here for towels, buy these things for God's sake.
Speaker 1: Black Friday appears to be now. The question I have
Speaker 1: for you today is why? Why? What's going on? Is
Speaker 1: it all just internet stuff? Is it all cyber Monday
Speaker 1: stuff that people are waiting for? Did people get tired
Speaker 1: of waiting in lines, fighting through crowds? It just seems
Speaker 1: like years ago. And I don't even mean that long ago,
Speaker 1: maybe four years ago. Certainly during the show, we used
Speaker 1: to have things where we'd go, here are survival tips
Speaker 1: for Black Friday, And now you show the door opening
Speaker 1: at a target, and there's one person who just strolls
Speaker 1: into the target for the Black Friday deals. It has changed.
Speaker 1: It has changed in a pretty drastic way. And I
Speaker 1: want to know what you think the reasoning for that
Speaker 1: is and what you saw in your experience. Send us
Speaker 1: a dispatch over at thenewsjunkie dot com. One thing is
Speaker 1: for sure, it's cyber Monday today. Let's spend so much
Speaker 1: money this morning before the sun game up? Did you
Speaker 1: really did you get anything good?
Speaker 2: I mean, I'm just like doing a little yeah here
Speaker 2: and there, and the deal is pretty good.
Speaker 1: Air pods, these kind of things.
Speaker 2: Have you heard of Amazon Hall, Yeah, because I went
Speaker 2: to town on that.
Speaker 1: Oh great, what did you buy? You buy a bunch
Speaker 1: of junk that you're never going to get.
Speaker 2: Luly and junk that I'm going to give as Christmas gifts.
Speaker 2: Oh right, They're like, how about you spend ten dollars
Speaker 2: and forty eight cents more and you'll get ten percent off?
Speaker 1: And I go challenge accept it. Yeah, there's a lot
Speaker 1: of Actually I'm being serious and I know you are too.
Speaker 1: There are a lot of actually good deals on a
Speaker 1: cyber Monday. There are good deals that people have. And
Speaker 1: if you go to Amazon today, like so many millions
Speaker 1: of people will do, you will find stuff. You'll find
Speaker 1: flat screen TVs for insane prices, and computers and iPads
Speaker 1: and all of the rest. You'll find all of these things,
Speaker 1: and it's fairly interesting to see this stuff. But for
Speaker 1: me at this point, I don't do a lot of that.
Speaker 1: I kind of I hate to say this. I don't
Speaker 1: mean to bring things down, but when it comes to
Speaker 1: Christmas time, at Christmas shopping, I don't have many people
Speaker 1: to buy for because a lot of my family members
Speaker 1: day died and day and and uh and you know,
Speaker 1: the only one left I don't talk to or having
Speaker 1: another day.
Speaker 4: I don't talk to Dylan anymore.

Speaker 1: is Zutopia. Shouts out to all the celebrities who are
Speaker 1: doing the promotional tour for Zutopia right now, because in
Speaker 1: half of the countries the movie is called Zutopia, and
Speaker 1: in the other half of the countries that they're promoting
Speaker 1: in it is not called Zutopia. It's called like Zulandia
Speaker 1: or some such things. Zoop yeah, copywritten, I guess, so, yeah, Zutopia.
Speaker 1: What about male models or hold on Everland? Zootropolis. So
Speaker 1: I was watching Jason Bateman, who does the voice of
Speaker 1: the Fox, and he was doing an interview with some
Speaker 1: Hurtle kid. Yeah yeah, and he's talking about where he wait,
Speaker 1: I didn't I didn't want to ask him any questions.
Speaker 1: It was a really tiny individual with a microphone. But
Speaker 1: Jason Bateman's like, did you see Zuopolis three? And I'm like,
Speaker 1: what an idiot? He doesn't know the name of his
Speaker 1: own movie. Damn. He's impressive. He's flexing back and forth this,
Speaker 1: you know, for different markets that they promote this thing
Speaker 1: in where they got different names. But Zootopia to number
Speaker 1: one at the box office.
Speaker 3: I think that Now You See Me movie was like

Speaker 1: you laugh. We got to talk about I don't know,

Speaker 1: in the next episode? My yeah, we got to spend
Speaker 1: some time talking about that. I don't know what's happened
Speaker 1: in this guy's world, but it's a big boy.
Speaker 2: You're a Bengo car that needs to be punched out
Speaker 2: or something that's not how it works.
Speaker 1: And there was one part of his arrest in particular
Speaker 1: that we need to talk about. We'll get to that
Speaker 1: in a little bit. Amy Cawfel, it's all coming up next.
Speaker 1: I'm a news junkie. It's the big, big long weekend
Speaker 1: for Thanksgiving weekend. We hope you all had a safe time,
Speaker 1: a good time out there. People tend to have fun,
Speaker 1: they enjoy family. All of these things are great. I
Speaker 1: did attempt to bring back the let's give thanks, Yeah
Speaker 1: I did. I didn't know when to try to eke
Speaker 1: that in for those of you who don't know the
Speaker 1: lore here years ago on the show, I told a
Speaker 1: very true story about how we were all sitting around
Speaker 1: the table for Thanksgiving, all of Courtney's family who have
Speaker 1: had Thanksgiving dinner with for like a decade now, and
Speaker 1: we're sitting around the table and they go, now, everybody
Speaker 1: is gonna say what they're thankful for, and everybody does
Speaker 1: a nice thing like I'm thankful for this, and I'm
Speaker 1: thankful for that, and then it comes to me and
Speaker 1: I said, and I just winged it. I didn't I
Speaker 1: wasn't thinking of anything, and I said, I'm thankful that
Speaker 1: we only have to do this once a year, and
Speaker 1: people laughed. But then it was just like God. And
Speaker 1: then the next year they stopped doing the thankful bit.
Speaker 1: They stopped it and and I mean this was like
Speaker 1: a thing that they did every year as a family,
Speaker 1: as somebody families do, and I ruined it. I completely
Speaker 1: ruined a family tradition single handedly. I felt so bad
Speaker 1: about it. So I was going to this year try
Speaker 1: to bring it back up. But I didn't know. It's
Speaker 1: like hopscotch. I was like, where do I bring up though,
Speaker 1: what I'm thankful for thing this year? Did you have
Speaker 1: everybody around? I did? I had like a they had heinekens,
Speaker 1: so I was I had one reasonable heineken whilst there,
Speaker 1: and so had I did have that. I could have
Speaker 1: tried to cheers or something, but everybody grabbed hands and
Speaker 1: they do like a prayer before they eat at Thanksgiving,
Speaker 1: and we said we did that. You know, like where
Speaker 1: I stare at the ground awkwardly and then I go
Speaker 1: I'm afterwards, and then everybody sits down. You know, there's big,
Speaker 1: big table, probably fifteen sixteen people there or something maybe more,
Speaker 1: And I went to go like, uh wait, should we
Speaker 1: do the thankful thing?
Speaker 8: And I.
Speaker 1: That was my pitch, Yeah, should we do the thankful thing?
Speaker 1: I was going to do this. We listen to the
Speaker 1: show Sean and the response is, let's just let everybody
Speaker 1: get to their food. That's not let's see while the
Speaker 1: food is the warm gave that response doesn't matter.
Speaker 4: Even worse than when he ruined it originally.
Speaker 1: Should we do the thankful thing? Let's just let everybody
Speaker 1: get to their food while it's warm. Still, let's let
Speaker 1: everyone get to that like oh, well, to be honest,
Speaker 1: I didn't tee it up like I should have. I
Speaker 1: should have done like I wanted to bring the family
Speaker 1: tradition back. I'll start out, I'm thankful for the I
Speaker 1: should have I didn't though, the one that manything got
Speaker 1: to me. And then now it just doesn't matter. It
Speaker 1: doesn't So yeah, you got it. The food is warm,
Speaker 1: and it was delicious and it was a great time
Speaker 1: for sure. Somebody sent this over this weekend, and I
Speaker 1: think this may be one of those resurface clips, but
Speaker 1: I love it nonetheless, and it's going viral this year
Speaker 1: as a like, hey, this is why you're not supposed
Speaker 1: to get drunk on the Thanksgiving break. Warning. All right,
Speaker 1: you're not supposed to get drunk over Thanksgiving break. Here's
Speaker 1: your warning. This could happen to you. And I think
Speaker 1: it actually was released at some point last year, but
Speaker 1: a lot of you probably haven't seen it. Have you
Speaker 1: seen where this woman is getting the DUI test on
Speaker 1: the side of the road. She's supposed to do the
Speaker 1: whole alphabet gig, and she, well, she doesn't do great,
Speaker 1: she doesn't do last much longer alpha.
Speaker 3: I think they try to trick you with the alphabet thing,
Speaker 3: because it's not just like say the alphabet, it's like
Speaker 3: say the alphabet starting at C and stop, don't go
Speaker 3: at all past M.
Speaker 1: Was it hard for you? That shouldn't be hard. I mean,
Speaker 1: I think you get into a rhythm you used to
Speaker 1: kind of like sing it in your head. I think
Speaker 1: they tell you not to sing it too. No, they're
Speaker 1: still trying to sing it in your head. Yeah, here
Speaker 1: she goes she's trying on the side of the road.
Speaker 1: The allegation is that this lovely young lady maybe had
Speaker 1: a couple of drinks too many. Let's see how she
Speaker 1: did with the roadside test.
Speaker 7: It's the alphabet from start to finish without singing it.
Speaker 1: Yeah, whenever you're ready.
Speaker 8: The A E, F G, h I, f n g
Speaker 8: h I, c K hYP h q E s h
Speaker 8: q E s I c B.
Speaker 2: After all these years you, I mean, I don't know
Speaker 2: do we have to put into the test that like
Speaker 2: we get blacked out drunk and I think that we
Speaker 2: could say the ABC.
Speaker 1: Is no problems. She did not get through.
Speaker 4: It started off with the first three letters were wrong?
Speaker 1: Were they not? C, A, C B, She's right right
Speaker 1: off the jump and he gave it to her. Can
Speaker 1: you do your A B CS and she said, sure,
Speaker 1: A c B.
Speaker 7: The alphabet from start to finish alphabet, Yeah, whenever you're right.
Speaker 1: Second letter, but with.
Speaker 4: Confidently A, C, B, d E, f G, s h I,
Speaker 4: f n g g n ol p h q es.
Speaker 1: H c I. Really her alphabet has a lot of
Speaker 1: hs in There are many, many many hs. There's a
Speaker 1: fing and a hick in there. Yeah, the h I K.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I autocorrect, officer, what do.
Speaker 1: You want me to do? So stupid? Don't drink and drive.
Speaker 1: Do not do this.
Speaker 4: It's a fairy don't yours?
Speaker 1: Yeah, say like I couldn't do this if I was
Speaker 1: stone cold sober. Don't say that because that implies say
Speaker 1: I I don't know though I never learned my A
Speaker 1: B c's. There's a lot of a lot of kids
Speaker 1: these days probably don't know their A B c's.
Speaker 4: I'm dyslexic.
Speaker 1: I would guess that there's many of them that don't
Speaker 1: know how to get all the way through disease, certainly
Speaker 1: not without doing the singsongy thing. And they even change
Speaker 1: that at one point, they're trying to change it.
Speaker 4: It doesn't stick.
Speaker 1: They were like A B C D E G H jodey.
Speaker 1: They try to change the temple. They're trying to get
Speaker 1: rid of elemento and yeah, I don't know a man
Speaker 1: JK L M N O speak like it just stupid.
Speaker 1: Give me the elemental P and g H I C
Speaker 1: K no fin kick is not that that just doesn't
Speaker 1: seem like it should be out there in the alphabet.
Speaker 1: But uh, there you go, be safe out there. Everybody.
Speaker 1: A lot of stories about people stealing Christmas decorations, which
Speaker 1: is shocking to me. It's unbelievable to me. It's depressing
Speaker 1: to me that people will be out there in broad
Speaker 1: daylight one of the stories. And uh, you know, Amy
Speaker 1: Coffelt might be able to speak more on this. We'll
Speaker 1: talk with her about a bunch of stuff at the
Speaker 1: top of the hour here. But there was one thief
Speaker 1: got caught stealing Christmas decorations from a home in broad daylight.
Speaker 1: The yeah, they go right out in front of the house.
Speaker 1: It just starts stealing Chris miss deecorations. Southward of families
Speaker 1: in shock after a thief drove up to their house
Speaker 1: and stole their Christmas decorations in broad daylight. Lizbeth, the mother,
Speaker 1: says she put up the decorations early for her children,
Speaker 1: and she went to the grocery store. She was shocked
Speaker 1: to see a car reverse into their front yard and
Speaker 1: began ripping out the family's Christmas inflatables, including a Christmas
Speaker 1: tree and a mini mouse decoration. The guy grabbed up
Speaker 1: as much as he could. I stood there in disbelief.
Speaker 1: I cannot believe it. It's unbelievable. The belief has gone
Speaker 1: with this lady, especially with my kids. The family is
Speaker 1: speaking out to alert neighbors of the incident. How low
Speaker 1: can you go stealing Halloween aor Christmas? I guess Christmas
Speaker 1: decorations just unacceptable uninflatables, and they got like unplugging them,
Speaker 1: squishing the air out, shoving the root off in the
Speaker 1: trunk of your car. Just please don't do it. It's
Speaker 1: a really, really bad look. Really want to know what
Speaker 1: happened in my not my neighborhood, but it came up
Speaker 1: on my neighbors app my ring Neighbors app What happened
Speaker 1: because somebody had one of the floodlight cams that you
Speaker 1: know the guys was kind of up there and they
Speaker 1: posted a video of some young looking kids getting arrested.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, I sent it to you, Sean. Yeah.
Speaker 3: But the thing that got me I was like, people
Speaker 3: still say this. The caption on the video was four
Speaker 3: JITs captured.
Speaker 1: Yeah. I was like, ji g yeah, yeah, same. We'll
Speaker 1: talk about that. We'll talk about that at some point here,
Speaker 1: because there's some other things about that video and something
Speaker 1: else I want to throw in. We do have our
Speaker 1: friend Amy Kaffell coming up in a matter of minute,
Speaker 1: so we'll go over everything happening in the news with
Speaker 1: Amy Kaffell. We'll see what's happening for her holiday break.
Speaker 1: We only got three weeks left in the show on
Speaker 1: a cyber Monday, So hang out with us. That's coming
Speaker 1: up next on the news junk Key. It is Monday,
Speaker 1: and it is our favorite time of the week. Of course,
Speaker 1: it's time to welcome our friend Amy Cough up from fun.
Speaker 7: And I didn't forget. It's like a normal workday today.
Speaker 1: Yeah, how was How was your long holiday weekend? Did
Speaker 1: you get any actual days off or did they make
Speaker 1: your work right through it? Amy? I did.
Speaker 7: I was actually just talking to see Lane about that.
Speaker 6: So I took So we do have shows on Thanksgiving
Speaker 6: and the day after, but I took Thursday Friday off,
Speaker 6: so it was awesome. So got to hang out with
Speaker 6: the family. The girls came home from college. We had
Speaker 6: a lot of fun. We just know, I don't know,
Speaker 6: just family stuff.
Speaker 7: We went shopping. We did Black Friday shopping.
Speaker 1: That was fun. It was good. Okay, you went out there,
Speaker 1: you did Black Friday shopping. My theory is that it
Speaker 1: seems like Black Friday shopping is kind of dead. The
Speaker 1: crowd aren't shoving each other around, people aren't It's not
Speaker 1: a big social event where people are getting hurt and
Speaker 1: stuff anymore, which is probably a good thing. But it
Speaker 1: seems like the Black Friday, Mayhem is over. Did you
Speaker 1: see any of that?
Speaker 7: So the only thing that was crazy was the line.
Speaker 7: So it was packed.
Speaker 6: The mall was insane, Like people aren't there's no like
Speaker 6: must have anything, you know in the mall.
Speaker 7: So I mean people are just you know, they're just
Speaker 7: in these long lines. It was just packed there. And
Speaker 7: here's the other thing I thought was interesting.
Speaker 6: There were no sales that were like, Wow, this is
Speaker 6: like a crazy good deal on this. Everything was like,
Speaker 6: I don't know, twenty five thirty percent.
Speaker 1: Off, which I don't.
Speaker 7: I don't know about you guys, but I'm like it's
Speaker 7: got to be like half off or more for me
Speaker 7: to be like, wow, it's amazing.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 4: A lot of like in store only deals these days, right, Yeah.
Speaker 6: They're trying to get you to actually show up in
Speaker 6: the store because you buy more if you go in
Speaker 6: the store.
Speaker 7: I at least I do anyway, because I'm like, oh
Speaker 7: I need that, Oh I need that.
Speaker 1: So I don't need that, but I'll put it in
Speaker 1: my car. I feel like, like in twenty twenty five,
Speaker 1: here's where I'm at. It's so complicated. I'm pretty good
Speaker 1: with numbers, but even I get lost in the number
Speaker 1: tsunami that Courtney will throw at me. So, for instance,
Speaker 1: last night, she was getting some things for her nieces
Speaker 1: and she goes, okay, I should get this now, and
Speaker 1: I go, why do you need to get it right now?
Speaker 1: And she goes, well, it's a pre Cyber Monday deal
Speaker 1: at the time, and she goes, the item is fifty
Speaker 1: percent off, and then if I add another item to it,
Speaker 1: it'll hit the forty dollars mark, which makes it free shipping,
Speaker 1: which then basically makes this like this. And then that's
Speaker 1: what I do with all my orders. That's called girl
Speaker 1: math man. You a girl math girl math Hi. By
Speaker 1: the end of it, I go, it's a good deal,
Speaker 1: and she goes, yeah, of course, of course it's a
Speaker 1: good deal. Dummy, give me the card and I'm like, okay,
Speaker 1: here we go. I had no idea what happened to
Speaker 1: me afterwards. It's like the most twenty first century shakedown
Speaker 1: that could ever happen. But here we are. So Thanksgiving
Speaker 1: break was good. Now we're back. I can't believe it's December.
Speaker 1: I cannot believe it is December, but here we are
Speaker 1: in the month of December. Do you have any Christmas
Speaker 1: decorations up.
Speaker 6: Yet, Amy, Yeah, Sean, I decorated like three weeks ago.
Speaker 7: Yeah, I did, like early Novembers.
Speaker 6: The whole house is decorated on the inside, but I'm
Speaker 6: not in charge of the outside lights. So that is
Speaker 6: the one thing that is not completed, because the person
Speaker 6: in charge of the outside lights keeps saying they're going.
Speaker 7: To do the outside lights but hasn't done them.
Speaker 1: The name do you know who you are? Okay, she's
Speaker 1: done all her work.
Speaker 6: Really starting to irritate me because now like everybody else
Speaker 6: has their outside lights up, so now we look like
Speaker 6: the Scrooge house, even though I had the inside decorated
Speaker 6: weeks ago.
Speaker 1: Now, mind you, I have the lawn lights.
Speaker 2: You could change the colors, and so I have like
Speaker 2: red and green those only lights for like two hours
Speaker 2: up the sun goes down, and I have.
Speaker 4: Put everything right by the door and right outside. I've
Speaker 4: lined things up.
Speaker 2: I have the screwdriver because I want to do year
Speaker 2: long lights, and I still cannot bring myself to do it.
Speaker 4: My god, I've searched everywhere.
Speaker 7: Oh yeah, actually, you.
Speaker 4: Know, maybe we can just find someone who will do
Speaker 4: it for a low cost.
Speaker 1: Here's my problem, and this has started a fight in
Speaker 1: my household. And I'm not gonna lie. It's been it's
Speaker 1: been a little heaped around here. Okay, it just has
Speaker 1: Christmas spirit. We put up the Christmas stuff, and by we,
Speaker 1: I mean Courtney. I didn't do any I'm not even
Speaker 1: allowed to. I don't know what's going on, but it's
Speaker 1: She did the banister, and she did the Christmas tree,
Speaker 1: and she did a bunch of other stuff. And we
Speaker 1: got into it because I said, I don't like whatever
Speaker 1: this trend is that's going around. I don't It doesn't
Speaker 1: feel trends you're talking about now, the trend of just
Speaker 1: endlessly adding more and more and more more stuff to
Speaker 1: the Christmas tree. And she goes, we need more ornaments,
Speaker 1: and I go to hell, we do we need. I'll
Speaker 1: show you guys a picture. I'll have to go get
Speaker 1: a picture of the tree and show you what it
Speaker 1: looks like, because it's just it's out of control. It's
Speaker 1: completely control.
Speaker 4: As there are tiny little tree limbs.
Speaker 1: You can hang something on it. That's that's what she thinks.
Speaker 1: She believes that. She's like, look what I'm going to
Speaker 1: show you is like three quarters done. Give me just
Speaker 1: a second here, and I'll show you this is what
Speaker 1: our tree looks like at three quarters done. Because after
Speaker 1: this court he was like, oh, I've got two more
Speaker 1: boxes of stuff to put on the tree. Here here
Speaker 1: it is, and oh it's so beautiful. So there's so
Speaker 1: many things on the tree. There's well there's at you
Speaker 1: can't see it. It's cut off. It's up here. Yeah,
Speaker 1: there's a star up there that's cut off. It's clear
Speaker 1: your star lights up, doesn't it. No, I don't. I
Speaker 1: don't think it does.
Speaker 4: One's in the Christmas spirit at that household.
Speaker 1: It's just there's no more green left on the tree.
Speaker 1: Have you guys seen this thing that goes around? It's
Speaker 1: like keep putting more and more and more and more
Speaker 1: and more stuffed lights.
Speaker 2: In there's I found myself ornaments different situation where Nicole
Speaker 2: was being shamed by her friends that shall not be
Speaker 2: named because you're supposed to have a tree that's all
Speaker 2: like matchie MATCHI yeah, that's supposed to be all the same,
Speaker 2: like white and garland.
Speaker 1: There's usually a color scheme. And I go, I'm sorry.
Speaker 2: I wanted to put up the ornaments that my mom
Speaker 2: gave me of Carl from for show.
Speaker 1: And you should. It's about putting up ornaments on a
Speaker 1: tree that have memories associated with meaning to you.
Speaker 4: Apparently not because it's not chic, and we.
Speaker 1: Have a ton of those on our tree. But and
Speaker 1: those are beautiful and I love them. I want a
Speaker 1: green Christmas tree with a couple of lights and some
Speaker 1: ornaments that mean something. I don't want. It looks like
Speaker 1: somebody took a massive gun of some type and there
Speaker 1: was an ornament shooting gun. It just kept shooting the
Speaker 1: tree sound audio. I mean it, it looks great, did
Speaker 1: a great job. It's just a lot. I mean, like
Speaker 1: when the Grinch flipped his vacuum to you know, from
Speaker 1: suck to blow exactly everything. Yeah, that is sort of
Speaker 1: what it looks like. It's beautiful. She did a great job.
Speaker 1: She's immensely artistic and talented in every way. But it's
Speaker 1: to me, I want more tree. I want more of
Speaker 1: the tree space instead of trying to perfectly put an
Speaker 1: ornament every inch or two absolutely everywhere. Fantastic.
Speaker 3: She has tetris the hell out of that thing to
Speaker 3: ensure maximum ornamentage.
Speaker 1: There's a lot. There's hundreds of these things on this
Speaker 1: damn tree.
Speaker 6: It's I still have my Courtney ornament on my tree.
Speaker 6: Please tell her I love got me like a little
Speaker 6: ornament with it looks like Mazy and it has like
Speaker 6: it's a gone Retriever with a little Santa hat on it,
Speaker 6: and it is like shrine placement on my Christmas tree.
Speaker 1: I love it. Well. It is a beautiful time of year.
Speaker 1: The weather has been really really nice. All things are
Speaker 1: gearing up for the end of twenty twenty five, which
Speaker 1: is kind of crazy to think about in and of itself.
Speaker 1: Remember what happened? I mean, we're really like in the
Speaker 1: home stretch here, people are already checking out Amy, which
Speaker 1: is kind of astonishing to me. I did see though,
Speaker 1: you're not done with the news over there. Fox thirty
Speaker 1: five has been getting some traction in some headlines for
Speaker 1: one of the latest interviews with the Anna Kepner family
Speaker 1: and the cruise murder mystery story that has been engaging
Speaker 1: the whole world, Like people all over the world are
Speaker 1: following this Fox thirty five and am Kowfield of course
Speaker 1: right at the center of this story. And what I'm
Speaker 1: getting now like the new updates to me, it seems
Speaker 1: and tell me if I'm missing anything or where we
Speaker 1: should be at on the story of this eighteen year
Speaker 1: old who died. It appears she was murdered pop simply
Speaker 1: by her stepbrother who she was rooming with on this
Speaker 1: cruise ship. They said potentially that he like put her
Speaker 1: in some sort of choke hold and then hit her
Speaker 1: under the bed. It seems to me that the stage
Speaker 1: we're in now is the family is growing more and
Speaker 1: more frustrated with a lack of action here. There haven't
Speaker 1: been any charges filed, and the family seems to be upset.
Speaker 1: Is that about where we seem to be on this case.
Speaker 7: Yeah, So here's what we have coming up this week.
Speaker 6: So we have a civil court hearing on Friday in
Speaker 6: which Christopher Kepner, who is Anna's dad, is scheduled to testify.
Speaker 7: So this is a civil court case.
Speaker 6: This is kind of where a lot of the information
Speaker 6: has been coming from, is these civil court documents regarding
Speaker 6: his current his current wife and her ex husband and
Speaker 6: there's like a custody battle over the kids, and so
Speaker 6: they have been trying to get this the testimony in
Speaker 6: this particular hearing closed, turned it into closed testimony so
Speaker 6: that people outside are not privy to what's going on.
Speaker 6: Because this is where we initially had the discovery that
Speaker 6: the step brother could potentially be implicated in the case
Speaker 6: because it said in these documents, these divorce, divorce and
Speaker 6: child custody proceedings, you know that the stepbrother could potentially
Speaker 6: be you know, a suspect in a murder case or
Speaker 6: a homicide case.
Speaker 7: And and if that's the case, then they didn't want.
Speaker 6: The parents and stepparents to be implicated or to have
Speaker 6: to say things they want.
Speaker 7: It's just I'm telling you, you, guys, one of those
Speaker 7: more complicated cases we've covered.
Speaker 1: It is it's got a blended family, it's got estranged mothers,
Speaker 1: it's got all of the things that you can imagine.
Speaker 1: The local Yeah, there's a lot of very strange people.
Speaker 1: That guy is still popping off on Twitter. I check
Speaker 1: his Twitter feed every couple days. Have you been following
Speaker 1: the uncle in this case, samm Kaffer that we're talking about.
Speaker 6: Yeah, So initially the uncle was very vocal about what
Speaker 6: happened and then would delete posts. But as Celine just
Speaker 6: mentioned the problem, none of these people that we have
Speaker 6: reached out to actually want to do an on camera
Speaker 6: interview with us.
Speaker 7: So the grandparents did an on camera.
Speaker 6: Interview I believe with ABC News that was like two
Speaker 6: weeks ago, and that was how the information came out
Speaker 6: about how Anna died. None of the stuff has been
Speaker 6: released by the authorities. Everything is hearsay or second party
Speaker 6: and then as journalists you get caught in a really
Speaker 6: awkward situation where like Fox News, who's our parent company,
Speaker 6: was reporting what the grandparents told ABC News. So, you know,
Speaker 6: normally as journalists were very careful about those things. Until
Speaker 6: it can be independently verified by us or it's our interview,
Speaker 6: we don't report on it, and so it's just created
Speaker 6: a whole nother level of complication of covering this story
Speaker 6: is like how much of what we report are we
Speaker 6: pulling from what other people have reported? And is that
Speaker 6: really good journalism if you're not verifying it independently and
Speaker 6: you can't get that confirmed and the FBI is not talking,
Speaker 6: I mean.
Speaker 2: They can't give even just a general hey, this is
Speaker 2: where we're at, and hear all the things that are incorrect.
Speaker 1: So well, I think I think they would say Sabrina
Speaker 1: probably like, hey, our job is not to speak with
Speaker 1: the media, it's to investigate these cases and get justice.
Speaker 1: But usually you don't have this many like everybody's watching
Speaker 1: and the vacuum is being filled by all sorts of information.
Speaker 1: I mean, I kind of think I know what's going
Speaker 1: on here, but it's still very, very full of twists
Speaker 1: and turns here.
Speaker 7: So we'll have sean.
Speaker 6: As you mentioned, heard from family members, not us personally,
Speaker 6: but other family members have spoken to some media outlets
Speaker 6: and said that yes, they wanted.
Speaker 7: Arrest made in this case.
Speaker 6: We had a criminal defense attorney on this morning and
Speaker 6: he said it is not unusual at all for us
Speaker 6: to be just a few weeks, you know, after Anna's
Speaker 6: death for an arrest to not have been made.
Speaker 7: It hasn't It hasn't even been a month yet.
Speaker 6: Yeah, and she died, but it's frustrating for people. They
Speaker 6: don't understand, you know, why has there not been arrest?
Speaker 7: Why is somebody not in custody?
Speaker 1: Well, the story I saw was from TMZ and it
Speaker 1: said Anna Kepner's aunt says the family is in turmoil
Speaker 1: as they are left with more questions and answers regarding
Speaker 1: the eighteen year old's murder aboard a carnival cruise ship
Speaker 1: earlier this month, Her aunt, Crystal Wright, told Fox thirty
Speaker 1: five Orlando this week, the family is quote just sitting
Speaker 1: here waiting for an update from authorities and describe their
Speaker 1: frustration that further action against her stepbrother, who's allegedly under
Speaker 1: investigation regarding your death has not been taken. So you know,
Speaker 1: that's like what's really driving the discussion at this moment.
Speaker 1: We'll see what we learned this week. When did you
Speaker 1: say that hearing was the new herring Friday? Friday? Okay,
Speaker 1: so we may get some information at that point. We'll
Speaker 1: see what's going on. Anything else grabbing your attention here?
Speaker 6: The first week get is say, so there's a wild
Speaker 6: case that's actually coming to court today. This is a
Speaker 6: guy who was convicted of killing his wife, his in laws,
Speaker 6: and another man inside of a furniture store fifty years ago.
Speaker 6: This guy has been on death row in Florida for
Speaker 6: fifty years for these murders that happened in winter Garden
Speaker 6: on Christmas Eve nineteen seventy five. And so he has
Speaker 6: attorneys now who are saying that that DNA evidence will
Speaker 6: exonerate him. There was no DNA evidence fifty years ago.
Speaker 6: So now this is coming to light in court now.
Speaker 6: So he is basically back in a courtroom setting. His
Speaker 6: lawyers are trying to get him exonerated fifty years after
Speaker 6: these crimes happened. He says that there was another person
Speaker 6: inside of the store that day that did the murders,
Speaker 6: that it wasn't him, and so we'll see what happened.
Speaker 7: He's eighty years old now, by the way.
Speaker 2: Yeah, so I mean, who a lot of people that
Speaker 2: are probably part of the case have passed.
Speaker 7: Yeah, that's a great point, Sabrina.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 6: Absolutely, So they're hoping that it is in fact this
Speaker 6: DNA evidence that will prove They say that this DNA
Speaker 6: results could prove that Zigler, his name is Tommy Zigler,
Speaker 6: struggled with Charlie Mays, who was a customer who was
Speaker 6: in the store who was also killed that night.
Speaker 7: So again, you have no witnesses.
Speaker 1: Yeah, when they have cases like this, sometimes I get
Speaker 1: the feeling that the attorneys just want a retrial and
Speaker 1: then they're never going to do the retrial because you
Speaker 1: can't retry a fifty year old case.
Speaker 7: Years.
Speaker 1: Yeah, good luck to you. It's just not going to
Speaker 1: be incredible.
Speaker 6: But it happened to our garden Christmas Eve, so you
Speaker 6: also eerie that here it is, you know, we're coming
Speaker 6: up on the on the fifty year mark of when
Speaker 6: this happened, Yeah, nineteen seventy five.
Speaker 1: Anything else out there grabbing your attention, Amy cough.
Speaker 7: Fell, Yeah, I mean we're going to be at a
Speaker 7: hearing today.
Speaker 6: A Blue Origin is wanting to get rid of some
Speaker 6: rocket waste into the Indian River Lagoon, which, if anybody's
Speaker 6: lived in central Florida for a long time, you know,
Speaker 6: the Indian River Lagoon is an area that is people
Speaker 6: have been trying to.
Speaker 7: Protect to keep the manatees how healthy.
Speaker 1: In the ocean like way out that's hard to get to. Yeah.
Speaker 6: Yeah, So we'll be all over that today just to
Speaker 6: see where we're at with the hearing. And I mean
Speaker 6: there's so much stuff that you know, we don't even
Speaker 6: realize that's happening as far as our environment is concerned.
Speaker 7: You know that things that are being put into the
Speaker 7: water ways that we're not even aware of.
Speaker 1: What is rocket waste?
Speaker 7: Yeah, well it's from the Blue Origin program.
Speaker 1: So that's worried.
Speaker 7: So to me, they just thinks they don't want anymore.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I guess, so, Holy CAP's.
Speaker 4: On them to get rid of not put into nature.
Speaker 1: Well, we have too many manatees. Clearly they are slow,
Speaker 1: dare you? They are ugly and protected, thank you. They
Speaker 1: eat too much stuff and it's just time to see
Speaker 1: the just I've had enough of them.
Speaker 3: You can't even dump a cup of water next to
Speaker 3: amanite without them wanting to cuff.
Speaker 1: Give you the cuffs. Yeah, watch your breaks on the
Speaker 1: scent next year. Quick, You're gonna take a quick break.
Speaker 1: Our friend Amy Kawel, And thank you for being with us.
Speaker 1: We are indeed thankful for Amy Coffel every week that
Speaker 1: she's the best of the best of the best. Make

Speaker 1: Fox thirty five Orlando dot com. And follow our friend
Speaker 1: Amy Kawfel everywhere you can on social media. Just search
Speaker 1: for Amy Cawfel. We'll see you next week. Amy. You
Speaker 1: guys where she goes. She's the best. We'll be back.
Speaker 1: We got more to get into. More clips to talk
Speaker 1: about some chaos at the movie theater, chaos on a
Speaker 1: United Airlines flight, chaos everywhere. Baby, Let's see how it
Speaker 1: all went down, because that is coming up next on
Speaker 1: the news Junkie. Lots of stuff to get into on
Speaker 1: a Monday here, a cyber Monday. As I said, we
Speaker 1: have a very limited deal up on the merch store
Speaker 1: that you can check out if you'd like to, and
Speaker 1: it comes with the roast shirt and a digital download
Speaker 1: for the Roast of VOD which is coming out in
Speaker 1: about a weekish weakish should be released and available for
Speaker 1: everybody at that point in tom. I wanted to share
Speaker 1: this with everybody because I think this probably happens a bit,
Speaker 1: but I want to know if you think this is
Speaker 1: on the level of a crime. Because the family that
Speaker 1: this happened to, this is a door dash mishap. The
Speaker 1: family that this happened to wants the door door dash
Speaker 1: driver arrested for the delivery, all right, Okay, they want
Speaker 1: the DoorDash driver arrested, like actually arrested, hold off to
Speaker 1: jail for what this DoorDash driver did. And I can
Speaker 1: see some reasons maybe why you would want that, Like
Speaker 1: if somebody stole some food that you paid for and
Speaker 1: they were a DoorDash driver that is stealing and that
Speaker 1: is technically against the law and they should be getting
Speaker 1: some trouble from the law and law enforcement because of it. However,
Speaker 1: here's what happened in this case. In a doorbell video
Speaker 1: that's going viral. This is the DoorDash driver I'm looking
Speaker 1: at here. He's got the food all in the the
Speaker 1: door dash pouch supposed to be nice and warm, comes
Speaker 1: up to the door. He's grabbing the stuff out of
Speaker 1: the pouch, the warm pouch. He drops it, puts it
Speaker 1: back together, and leaves. Okay, a couple of things I
Speaker 1: want to note here. Number one, when he dropped the food,
Speaker 1: a wing falls out and the wing is on the ground.
Speaker 1: The chicken wing that was in the delivery is on
Speaker 1: the ground right here, and he picked it up, put
Speaker 1: it back in with the food and didn't say anything.
Speaker 1: And then of course he takes a nice little finger
Speaker 1: lick he does. And then when he's leaving the.
Speaker 2: Scene here there was a good little stinky leg on
Speaker 2: the wing stain on the ground.
Speaker 1: Yeah, he just tries to like, you know, so wing Mark,
Speaker 1: let me get rid of this here and I'm out
Speaker 1: of here, which I think is gross. And I think
Speaker 1: probably happens more than we would ever want to admit.
Speaker 1: But do you think there should be a charge against
Speaker 1: this guy? I mean, I think maybe the fact that
Speaker 1: he didn't notify the people that something could happen to
Speaker 1: their food, you should.
Speaker 4: I mean that was easy enough. Hey, sorry, this just
Speaker 4: happened one wing down.
Speaker 2: I'm gonna leave it here on the ground, and then
Speaker 2: you go to door dash and you say something went
Speaker 2: wrong and you get your money back.
Speaker 1: Well, let's go to this. If this happened in a restaurant.
Speaker 1: If I'm in a restaurant, food falls on the ground,
Speaker 1: I serve the food to patrons and I don't tell him.
Speaker 1: Have I committed a crime?
Speaker 4: I mean tampering with food I thought was a crime.
Speaker 1: It could be. I don't know. That's what to say. Specifically,
Speaker 1: if you like, drop food on the ground, don't tell
Speaker 1: anybody and then serve it to them. Because if it's
Speaker 1: a crime in the restaurant, I would imagine it's still
Speaker 1: a crime for the door dash driver who does this.
Speaker 1: Is there an argument to be made that tampering with
Speaker 1: food is something you do on purpose, and if you
Speaker 1: simply dropped something and picked it back up, that that
Speaker 1: would have been accidental tamper. It could be. Yeah, I
Speaker 1: could ask a here. You know what I would have
Speaker 1: done if I was this guy, if I was a DoorDash, gut,
Speaker 1: just take the one chicken wing that dropped out and
Speaker 1: leave and everything else was fine. You know, there was
Speaker 1: one that fumbled out onto the ground. But to say
Speaker 1: that the door Dash delivery driver fumbled the food and
Speaker 1: therefore he should face charges over this.
Speaker 2: That's why I don't understand at this point why door
Speaker 2: Dash and Uber don't have this requirement by the restaurants,
Speaker 2: and a lot of them do.
Speaker 4: Is like your drivers picking up.
Speaker 2: A sealed bag. Uh huh, like it is getting packed
Speaker 2: up ready to go. Mind you, it would be nice
Speaker 2: if they could double check some stuff. But if anything,
Speaker 2: that was a very loose top.
Speaker 1: To blame.
Speaker 4: But this could have been avoided if it was just
Speaker 4: a sealed bag.
Speaker 1: Yeah, usually they have that kind of stuff. This is
Speaker 1: from a Papa John's delivery. No, that that was the thing.
Speaker 1: Is it door Dash? On that it looks like a
Speaker 1: door Dash his bag, he says, door Dash. Yeah, the
Speaker 1: case he took it out of, says DoorDash. But the
Speaker 1: food appears to be Papa John's, and then it's definitely else.
Speaker 1: It was definitely Papa Jones. Who gets DoorDash for pizza?
Speaker 3: Why why do you not delivered like a little weird
Speaker 3: Papa John's, Like there are other pizza places that may
Speaker 3: not deliver that you can still get uber eats from
Speaker 3: their There's a a couple of places near me that
Speaker 3: we do, but for Papa John's. Unless this is an
Speaker 3: area where the restaurant itself like partners with door Dash
Speaker 3: instead of having a delivery service.
Speaker 1: Maybe I just think if you throw this guy in jail, man,
Speaker 1: you're gonna throw a lot of them in jail. This
Speaker 1: probably happens quite a bit, all right, So what crime
Speaker 1: could this be?
Speaker 3: Serving food that you knowingly contaminated can fall under several
Speaker 3: criminal categories in many US states. Criminal negligence if you
Speaker 3: should have known it could make someone sick, reckless endangerment
Speaker 3: if serving the food created as a substantial risk of harm.
Speaker 3: Food adulteration is a specific crime in many states. They
Speaker 3: have lost making it illegally to intentionally illegal to intentionally
Speaker 3: serve adulterated food contaminated by foreign material or unsanitary conditions.
Speaker 3: There's that intentional word, Yeah, But I mean the other
Speaker 3: one is criminal negligence, and that that's something you could
Speaker 3: charge somebody with. The other things are health code violations,
Speaker 3: and I don't know that you're like getting the handcuffs
Speaker 3: out for that right it?
Speaker 1: Probably you should shouldn't, even though let's see a lot
Speaker 1: of comments coming at Williams says, are you, Siria as
Speaker 1: sean a crime? Get real? It was a mistake. Yes,
Speaker 1: the customer can contact door dash and the item would
Speaker 1: be taken off and they could leave a bad review,
Speaker 1: but not a crime. OMG. Well, the thing is that
Speaker 1: this person didn't say anything, and if you didn't have
Speaker 1: a doorbell cam, you would have no idea that you
Speaker 1: were eating some ground wings. You were just eating the
Speaker 1: chicken wings from right off of the ground. But my
Speaker 1: point is, I feel like this probably happens a lot.
Speaker 1: I feel like I have it a lot. And if
Speaker 1: you hold them to this standard, like if your food
Speaker 1: touches the ground, the delivery driver goes to jail. That
Speaker 1: might not work in practice, that might not be a
Speaker 1: good thing. I'll put this up on see it now
Speaker 1: so you could take a look. Come me grab a
Speaker 1: screenshot of this right now. You could take a look
Speaker 1: over on See It Now. It's a visual and then
Speaker 1: as with all the visuals, if you want to see
Speaker 1: what we're talking about here on the show, you can
Speaker 1: do that. You go over to the news Junkie dot
Speaker 1: com you hit these see it Now button pressto bango
Speaker 1: just like that, you'll be able to see what we're
Speaker 1: talking about in this phase to chat GPT in the
Speaker 1: like the hypothetical was the restaurant one, like if you
Speaker 1: drop food to the restaurant and picked it up and
Speaker 1: serve it to customers. Yeah, they said, realistically, there wouldn't
Speaker 1: actually be charges unless somebody reported it. There's proof and
Speaker 1: somebody there was harm, like you know, somebody got sick
Speaker 1: something like that. They said, like.
Speaker 3: Criminal charges only likely if the act was intentional, the
Speaker 3: contamination could reasonably cause illness and the customer became sick
Speaker 3: or reported it.
Speaker 1: I don't know if they did, but I know the
Speaker 1: family allegedly was suggesting that they wanted charges against the
Speaker 1: door dash drivers. Go check it out on See It
Speaker 1: Now at the Neewsjunkie dot Com. Let me return the
Speaker 1: next episode with Sabrina. What's coming up on the next episode?

Speaker 1: com in the merch section. Right now, let's get into it.
Speaker 1: Let's do the next episode, because there's a lot on TV.
Speaker 1: You can't possibly keep up with all of it, even
Speaker 1: though you should, because what else are you going to
Speaker 1: talk about? What in the hell did I get myself
Speaker 1: into nice? It's time for the next episode with Sabrinay.
Speaker 4: Hold up, I just spun the wheel, that's all.
Speaker 1: No, that's what came up I literally I can't tell
Speaker 1: you now, but I said that exact phrase to myself.
Speaker 1: I'd like I heard Sean say it in my head
Speaker 1: at some point over the weekend when putting up some
Speaker 1: Christmas decorations that was going anything but swimmingly.
Speaker 2: I did that and said it was your phrase. No,
Speaker 2: maybe it was Sean too. It was like, recognize it
Speaker 2: right away. That's a bad right way anyway. The next
Speaker 2: episode brought you by that mortgage guy Don, And speaking
Speaker 2: of thankful, I am so thankful for him, a longtime
Speaker 2: sponsor in front of the show, and he's helping everyone
Speaker 2: out when it comes to refinancing those beautiful homes you own.
Speaker 2: Perhaps twenty twenty six is a dream home in your future,
Speaker 2: then work with someone who's got your back. I know
Speaker 2: of someone right now, very dear friend of mine, Dan,
Speaker 2: who's looking into buying his first home.
Speaker 8: Now.
Speaker 1: The first person he.
Speaker 2: Went to and sat down with was that mortgage guy Don,
Speaker 2: because he trusts him. Don's an expert, but he makes
Speaker 2: it uncomplicated, you know, opposite of Avri Lavine's top hit, right,
Speaker 2: and it should be for everyone. So start that process
Speaker 2: today by going to that mortgage guy Don.
Speaker 1: Dot's do't miss the vook mortgage. I've also heard that
Speaker 1: the rates might be coming down a little bit. I
Speaker 1: think that some people that are reading the tea leaves
Speaker 1: are saying there might be some drop in soon. So
Speaker 1: good good you want to buy or REFI? Which is
Speaker 1: I think something that we would be interested in at
Speaker 1: some point? You know the talk to don Yeah, I'll do.
Speaker 1: Oh what in the hell did I get myself into?
Speaker 1: Same thing?
Speaker 4: The band that is this one right here?
Speaker 1: So they're not a prude because they are pistol that
Speaker 1: is right, and.
Speaker 4: They were asking themselves the same question.
Speaker 2: Forty nine years ago, nineteen seventy six, when Johnny Rotten
Speaker 2: of the Sex Pistols used profanity live on the BBC,
Speaker 2: The press called the band rotten punks because of it,
Speaker 2: and making them the founding fathers of punk rock.
Speaker 1: Yeah, is that where the phrase came from? Punk rock?
Speaker 4: According to my Back in the Day website, that's.
Speaker 1: A that's a badge of honor to say that you
Speaker 1: started as a genre.
Speaker 2: Yeah, true, absolutely, no, maybe we can come up with
Speaker 2: this genre name. Because it was eleven years ago in
Speaker 2: twenty fourteen that AMC issued an apology for screwing up
Speaker 2: on social media. They posted a major major spoiler alert
Speaker 2: uh oh without the alert, just spoiler on Facebook right
Speaker 2: after the Walking Dead mid season finale, revealing the death
Speaker 2: of a main character. Fans had not seen the episode
Speaker 2: because it was I think even before streaming was as popular.
Speaker 7: As it is now.
Speaker 1: I remember these people were mad about it.
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, they were furious.
Speaker 2: It showed a picture of Daryl carrying a body with
Speaker 2: the caption rip spoiler alert Beth, making them the founding
Speaker 2: fathers of boomers us and fains will them, I mean,
Speaker 2: go ahead and fill in the blank, because that's exactly
Speaker 2: what I had. I was supposed to fill it in,
Speaker 2: fathers of stupid idiot fun suckers.
Speaker 3: Definitely accidentally spoiled something for Walking Dead for people once,
Speaker 3: and there was a lot of heat coming my way.
Speaker 2: Remember when I spoiled Breaking Bad for you? Yeah that
Speaker 2: was you actually ripped off the phones and threw down.
Speaker 2: But Sean was laughing so hard. Well, did you guys
Speaker 2: watch Stranger Things were about to spoiler?
Speaker 1: And everything? Did? I watched two of them, two of
Speaker 1: the four that are currently available. Two of the four.
Speaker 2: Okay, so I did. Thanksgiving. It took me the entire
Speaker 2: day because I kept falling asleep.
Speaker 1: It was just a beautiful lah laby, did you watch
Speaker 1: one of the because we watched a recap video that said, like,
Speaker 1: this is twenty two minutes long and it's going to
Speaker 1: give you a full recap of the first four seasons.
Speaker 2: So we watched the entire series again right before this
Speaker 2: all came out, just to catch up, and it was great.
Speaker 2: It's been a minute, but I did watch all four
Speaker 2: trying not to spoil I I will say in my
Speaker 2: own little recap, after the first two episodes, first three
Speaker 2: and a half, I was like, oh, this is going
Speaker 2: to be a dud. Really, I'm getting I don't know
Speaker 2: what's happening here. They're having some weird like close up
Speaker 2: dialogue that seems like it was written by Ai. And
Speaker 2: then that last episode kind of don't all together okay.
Speaker 1: Because the first two I thought were fine. And Seilan
Speaker 1: will never watch it because apparently he's boycotting Stranger Things,
Speaker 1: trying to give him something Sabrina that I knew he
Speaker 1: would be definitely interested in, which is in the first
Speaker 1: I think first episode, maybe the second episode, there's a
Speaker 1: one of the characters is running a radio station. Oh yeah,
Speaker 1: and she's doing like her radio station a bit over
Speaker 1: like a song, and then there's somebody playing sound effects
Speaker 1: and stuff, and they're using old radio equipment that they
Speaker 1: would have had in the eighties. And see Lane is
Speaker 1: usually interested in that stuff.
Speaker 2: And I said, it was three of us at that moment,
Speaker 2: and anytime radio is featured in TV or movies, we
Speaker 2: go to our partners and explain how it's.
Speaker 1: Wrong or what equipment we have that matches that. It
Speaker 1: was pretty accurate. I liked it. I thought it was
Speaker 1: great cart machines and stuff. Old school equipment.
Speaker 2: Also fun fact, and I believe you in the first
Speaker 2: two episodes have seen the teacher that is at the
Speaker 2: school that they all go to.
Speaker 1: There's one teacher in particular, but maybe it's it's episode.
Speaker 2: Three and four for sure that she is prominent, and
Speaker 2: it turns out that is the Duffer Brothers real life
Speaker 2: drama teacher.
Speaker 1: From high school. Really thought it was cool, We're cute.
Speaker 2: Also, Mellie Bobby Brown that you know, right leading up
Speaker 2: to this new season or the first half of it,
Speaker 2: had allegedly accused David Harbor of bullying and harassment.
Speaker 4: There was an investigation.
Speaker 2: She is now saying she has no problem and feels
Speaker 2: very safe working with her, and they're getting along just fine,
Speaker 2: great relationship.
Speaker 1: I am going to accuse the whole series of harassment
Speaker 1: because I have never seen a series that is more
Speaker 1: willing to kill off people and then go, haha, just kidding.
Speaker 1: They're still alive as Stranger Things. That's what really sticks
Speaker 1: with me. They've killed like four people oft and then
Speaker 1: they go there he's back. Are they going to bring
Speaker 1: back the one girlfriend first? Very very dead? Okay, yeah, gender,
Speaker 1: this is all I can say.
Speaker 2: Yay, yeah, Genda, get ready yay yeah, agenda, because you
Speaker 2: didn't watch all of them yet, so that's all I got. Well,
Speaker 2: their sexuality has still not been confirmed.
Speaker 1: I thought they I thought they were clear about that.
Speaker 1: And uh, it's very cool. He's a gay.
Speaker 4: He is not being confirmed as a gay.
Speaker 1: He seems pretty gay.
Speaker 4: Been confirmed with something you really got to watch the
Speaker 4: last episode.
Speaker 1: I cannot Yeah, the whole thing twist.
Speaker 2: Kate Bush, though, sing another huge booster to Rooney in
Speaker 2: streams following the premiere of the fifth and final season
Speaker 2: of Stranger Things.
Speaker 4: Just all that hill money raking it in right now.
Speaker 1: I was so effing tired of this song. What about
Speaker 1: the bounce version from New Orleans And this one's not that,
Speaker 1: but just the song in general was it was getting.
Speaker 2: At me running up the hill more like running into
Speaker 2: the law so many times. And I guess we're gonna
Speaker 2: have to expand upon this later. But oh, Zachary Tye
Speaker 2: Brian back in trouble for the umpteenth time. Yeah, arrested
Speaker 2: over the Thanksgiving break, a probation violation tied with his
Speaker 2: previous domestic violence conviction, denied bail, remaining in jail until
Speaker 2: December third. And on top of it, a couple that
Speaker 2: domestically fights and gets arrested for it, staystickgether or something.
Speaker 1: Sixth time in five years.
Speaker 2: His girlfriend, Johnny Fay Cartwright, was also arrested, booked into
Speaker 2: the same jail, facing five charges, including duy, three counts
Speaker 2: of reckless and dangering, and attempted first degree assaults.
Speaker 1: She's expecting What's what's his partner's name?
Speaker 4: Uh, Johnny Fay Cartwright.
Speaker 1: It sounds like a bad guy in the Karate Kid
Speaker 1: or something. Oh no, it sounds like a televangelist to me,
Speaker 1: Johnny Fay Cartwright? Is that's a female? Yeah?
Speaker 2: I mean his girlfriend all right, and she's facing a
Speaker 2: bunch of charges. It's supposed to be a rain today,
Speaker 2: so I guess we'll get some more updates tomorrow or
Speaker 2: later on.
Speaker 1: Yeah, well, we'll go a little further into this when
Speaker 1: we come back in a bit, because I want to
Speaker 1: talk about some things that stuck out to me about
Speaker 1: this home improvement guy's arrest. But yeah, oh day, Just.

Speaker 5: Oh?
Speaker 1: I thought it was geez, so it's not even in
Speaker 1: our final week of the show. Oh God, party time though,
Speaker 1: I'm excited. Somebody with a good point about Stranger Things.
Speaker 1: By the way, Randall says with Stranger Things, why are
Speaker 1: twenty five year old adults riding around on kids huffy
Speaker 1: bikes with sissy bars. We watched two episodes. We had
Speaker 1: no idea what was going on because it has been
Speaker 1: years ago. Because now the kids, the Kids and Stranger
Speaker 1: Things were twelve thirteen, fourteen when the series started. That
Speaker 1: was almost ten years ago. So now they're all in
Speaker 1: their twenties. They're like twenty two, twenty three, twenty four.
Speaker 1: They took so long. Sean was telling me about the
Speaker 1: radio station scene. He's like, you know, because it's based
Speaker 1: in the eighties, and I'm like, shouldn't they be in
Speaker 1: the nineties by now? They at least gotty.
Speaker 4: Close to the nineties. It's eighty seven or eighty eight.
Speaker 1: No, you know what I liked. I don't know if
Speaker 1: it'll catch on.
Speaker 4: It's Steve Harrington though that hasn't aged a bit.
Speaker 8: No no.
Speaker 1: But one of the songs that they're playing a lot,
Speaker 1: not as much as Running Up that Hill from Kate Bush,
Speaker 1: but one of the songs that they played a bunch
Speaker 1: was they have the upside Down in Stranger Things like
Speaker 1: the Regular World and then the upside down version, and
Speaker 1: they played Diana Ross upside Down. I love that, man,
Speaker 1: I didn't. Yeah, every time it snuck on, I was like, ah,
Speaker 1: I forgot about this song. Very very clever, fun song
Speaker 1: to use in that show. All Right, we'll talk a
Speaker 1: little bit more about that as we go on and
Speaker 1: as I said, further into the home improvement drama, a
Speaker 1: bunch more as we roll on on a cyber Monday
Speaker 1: here on the show. And that's all coming up next
Speaker 1: on the news, Chunkie, all right, Chile. I had a
Speaker 1: censor this for me because some young lady thought it
Speaker 1: would be okay over the Thanksgiving break to just freak
Speaker 1: out on a United Airlines flight. Not gonna do what
Speaker 1: everybody thinks I'm gonna do, just freak out. She is
Speaker 1: in this case this lady. She was mad. She was
Speaker 1: big Matt. This as an irate passenger has been kicked
Speaker 1: off of a United Airlines flight. This was a Newark,
Speaker 1: and she cursed out a flight attendant and even said
Speaker 1: brace yourself, the dreaded, the unthinkable, the unsayable seaword. Yeah,
Speaker 1: she dropped the sea word on this flight. I can
Speaker 1: only pull up some extra details from what the lady says,
Speaker 1: but let's just listen to her first. Here's this United
Speaker 1: Airlines freak out Newark. She's getting up, yeah, yeah, I'm
Speaker 1: for an hour. Yea, all right. So the lady is
Speaker 1: getting up on the plane and the flight attendant comes
Speaker 1: over and she tells her that, ma'am, you.
Speaker 8: Need to.
Speaker 1: Get to that yet, she probably said. The flight attendant
Speaker 1: comes over, she probably said, man, I'm gonna and she goes,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna stand up. Okay, I'm I'm gonna stand up.
Speaker 1: She said, you made us stay for an hour on
Speaker 1: the tarmac. So pretty sure flight attendants have control over
Speaker 1: that's what this lady is saying. She's like, I'm gonna
Speaker 1: stand up, Okay, I'm getting I'm getting on.
Speaker 8: For an hour, yeah.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, Oh god. The passive aggressiveness. Yes, a problem.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna look at my phone.
Speaker 4: I know I'm not doing anything on that.
Speaker 1: But by the way, why are you big mad at
Speaker 1: the flight attendant who has said to you, even though
Speaker 1: you're being rude as hell to her, this flight attendant
Speaker 1: has been calm, and she said when you said no,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna stand up, I will be standing out. You
Speaker 1: make a sit on the tar back for an hour,
Speaker 1: and the woman goes, not a problem. And then she
Speaker 1: had the balls to be like, yeah, it's not a problem.
Speaker 1: You damn right, it's not a problem. I can't stand
Speaker 1: people who win in a back and forth and then
Speaker 1: don't appreciate, don't take the w and walk away. They
Speaker 1: do this all the time. So somebody will be like,
Speaker 1: I'm standing up. I don't care what you say. I'm
Speaker 1: standing up, and the flight attendant will go that's fine,
Speaker 1: and your damn right, that's fine. Well you won. They
Speaker 1: said you could stand up, Just chill out, man. This
Speaker 1: lady's like, no for an hour, yes, not a problem. Oh,
Speaker 1: and then she stares directly into the person filming them,
Speaker 1: who was ready because I'm sure this was not the.
Speaker 4: Or I don't know, third time that this woman like
Speaker 4: she knew something was going to happen.
Speaker 1: This lady was she was human, she was human. I think,
Speaker 1: how much long is it going to be on the tournament,
Speaker 1: this lady who won and was still angry about all
Speaker 1: this and angry and Sabrina's right to point this out.
Speaker 1: It's not the flight attendant's fault that you're on the tarback.
Speaker 1: What the hell is it their fault for? If you
Speaker 1: want to blame the pilot maybe, I mean, it's probably
Speaker 1: not even the pilot's fault. It's probably just happenstance. It sucks,
Speaker 1: that's the case.
Speaker 3: It did sound though, that they were It sounded like
Speaker 3: they had gotten into the air like maybe she just
Speaker 3: like they were on there for an hour and then
Speaker 3: she felt like now it's okay. She needs to stand
Speaker 3: because I think she's just like so filled up with
Speaker 3: rage that she wanted to let it all out and
Speaker 3: she didn't.
Speaker 1: Even need to.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I feel like the study and there has to
Speaker 2: be enough material online to get some stats out.
Speaker 4: But is it the majority so little flyers that have
Speaker 4: this flare up?
Speaker 2: Because I'll be damned if it was a friend of mine,
Speaker 2: family member, what would you do forbid? My you know
Speaker 2: significant other that even starts up, I'm like, absolutely not,
Speaker 2: no way in hell are you going to be the
Speaker 2: next viral video.
Speaker 1: So I think that I think that what happens in
Speaker 1: these cases. I'll give you another example of this from
Speaker 1: this weekend Sabrina, because there's a guy who got mad
Speaker 1: in a parking lot of a shopping center and started
Speaker 1: trying to pour wine on some guy who is videotaping
Speaker 1: on Yeah, Mark something. And the guy the whole time,
Speaker 1: this guy, he's like an older guy. The whole time,
Speaker 1: this guy is like, how would you feel if I
Speaker 1: just kicked your eyes right now? Just watch it?
Speaker 4: You know, I could take you three down right now.
Speaker 1: And then his wife comes over and he's like, you
Speaker 1: know what really makes me mad, darling, I could kick
Speaker 1: all three of their asses right now. I just took
Speaker 1: them down. But well, it just keeps going, like what
Speaker 1: would you do if I just rolled you right now?
Speaker 1: And then he tries to pour the beer, he gets the.
Speaker 2: Beer smacked out of his hand, and then he tries
Speaker 2: to smack the camera out of the guy's hand, and
Speaker 2: that's the worst part.
Speaker 4: Real drill to the email, and he misses.
Speaker 1: In this case, I bring this up, Sabrina, because the
Speaker 1: guy's wife is like, oh my god, you're doing it
Speaker 1: again again. No, oh not please, and he's like, she
Speaker 1: doesn't like it when I do this, when I lose
Speaker 1: my cool. Here's the video that's been going viral this weekend,
Speaker 1: Stay by the dump button.
Speaker 4: Oh, it's definitely.
Speaker 1: He's pouring the wine all over people. Somebody in the background.
Speaker 1: It's not worth it, sir, don't do it, please, it's
Speaker 1: not worth If.
Speaker 4: His A nine one one call is in this clip
Speaker 4: as well, it's also.
Speaker 1: Oh really okay, I don't know if it is all right.
Speaker 1: So the guy's video, Timmy, I want to report three
Speaker 1: masked men dressed in black. Wait reporting the people who
Speaker 1: are videotaping him having a breakdown of the parklight. They're
Speaker 1: masked men, all of them.
Speaker 2: They're in black, which an alert would be like, oh
Speaker 2: my god, there's obviously some sort of robbery or shooting
Speaker 2: going down.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I would think that there was some ninjas. That's
Speaker 1: what I would be looking for with cameras. So he's
Speaker 1: saying there's some masked men dressed in black. Three masked
Speaker 1: men dressed in black with cameras, you call the cops
Speaker 1: I'm gonna do it too, got it. I'm no, I'm
Speaker 1: gonna call he said. The cops don't care. Here's where
Speaker 1: he starts to try to do his intimidation. Technical reminder.
Speaker 1: This man is probably late fifties or maybe he's got
Speaker 1: kind of a Joe Biden look going on right now.
Speaker 1: He's got an aviator, Yeah, he's got the aviator glasses.
Speaker 1: So he tries to intimidate the guy filming him. What
Speaker 1: if I just took you down? Who doesn't say that?
Speaker 1: What if I just took you down? What if? What
Speaker 1: if I just took you down? Could you imagine? This
Speaker 1: is like think of it like a face off before
Speaker 1: an m M A fight where the fighters go out,
Speaker 1: and what if I just took you down? Well, sir,
Speaker 1: now that you've mentioned it, I am talk to a sandwich.
Speaker 1: What if I just took you down? The trader Joe's
Speaker 1: music in the background, it's great. There comes to wife
Speaker 1: Michael Michael, all right? His wife comes out so tempting?
Speaker 1: Is I could easily take the three of them? And
Speaker 1: what's because I could easily take the three of them?
Speaker 1: Now his wife is filming? Is this guy, uh, you
Speaker 1: know had some road sodas on the way to Trader Jones.
Speaker 1: I think maybe if.
Speaker 2: SODA's that was the first clip or one of the
Speaker 2: all this started with him trying to pour it on
Speaker 2: one of the cameramen, the mask cameraman, dressed in all black.
Speaker 1: He's not happy with these folks. I could roll him
Speaker 1: right now. She doesn't like him. See that's what I'm
Speaker 1: talking about. She doesn't like him when I get aggressive.
Speaker 1: Bag Well, sir, there is an opportunity here. Maybe just
Speaker 1: don't get aggressive. Maybe don't. And I don't know.
Speaker 4: If you're being aggressive and that's what she doesn't like,
Speaker 4: you're embarrassing.
Speaker 1: The crap out of her right now. Yeah.
Speaker 4: Also, your this is so cringe old man.
Speaker 1: There's an age after which you should never get into
Speaker 1: a fight. I think that age is forty. I think
Speaker 1: if you are older than forty years old, you should
Speaker 1: not be getting into a fight. You shouldn't be you
Speaker 1: shouldn't be like doing the talking like you're about. Come on.
Speaker 1: I get that. I could say I'm not getting in
Speaker 1: any fights.
Speaker 4: I'm just letting you know.
Speaker 1: If this story, I would beat him up. I would
Speaker 1: I would beat this guy up.
Speaker 3: Yes, there's something very familiar about his demeanor, this like
Speaker 3: he thinks he's untouchable kind of thing, and it reminds
Speaker 3: me of that cop that's gotten like two or three
Speaker 3: d u i's in town and was just kept telling
Speaker 3: the police officers how in trouble they're going to be
Speaker 3: for arresting him when he's clearly just out of his
Speaker 3: mind wasted.
Speaker 1: Do you remember who I'm talking about? Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: I remember when there's been a couple of these kind
Speaker 1: of stories where the person is like, you, guys are
Speaker 1: gonna look like fools when this comes out.
Speaker 4: Sad thing is all three of them could take him
Speaker 4: down and.
Speaker 1: You're like, wait, pulling you over for being drunk. No,
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna You're the one's gonna look like a fool.
Speaker 1: Oh God, So this old man try to start fights
Speaker 1: out there in the parking.
Speaker 3: I don't know if I like or dislike the fact
Speaker 3: that the person holding the camera didn't respond, because if
Speaker 3: it was, like, what if I just took you down
Speaker 3: like you almost you want to stay silent to get
Speaker 3: more out of him, you know, to get the.
Speaker 1: Content machine to keep churning out the goods. But also
Speaker 1: at some point I want to go if you just
Speaker 1: took me down, Sir, I would press charges on you
Speaker 1: for physically assaulting me. You know, that's what would happen
Speaker 1: if you just took me down to answer your question,
Speaker 1: Trader Joe's man as truthfully as possible. Yeah, I mean,
Speaker 1: I think it's just it's not a good look. It's
Speaker 1: not a good look. Also, we'll go a little further
Speaker 1: into this since I mentioned this earlier, the guy from
Speaker 1: Home Improvement, Zachary ty Brian. You would think he was
Speaker 1: just cruising. He was not the Jonathan Taylor Thomas kid,
Speaker 1: and he was not the goth kid he was. He
Speaker 1: was the brother Taylor Thomas was the middle kid. He's
Speaker 1: currently forty four years old. Zachary ty Briant Brad Taylor Brad. Okay,
Speaker 1: he was Brad on the show. He looks rough in
Speaker 1: in this mug shot? Which one was? Is that one?
Speaker 1: I think that's that's one that we've seen before. This
Speaker 1: is the story is new, but yeah, is this No,
Speaker 1: that's the newer one has his face all messed up.
Speaker 1: Let me search for somebody with the newer mug shot,
Speaker 1: Zachary tye Brian the new one from this guy from
Speaker 1: Home Alone shows his face excuse me, Home improvement and
Speaker 1: I got another thing about Home alone. Shows his face
Speaker 1: all messed up. Oh, here's page six. I think they're
Speaker 1: going to show.
Speaker 5: Zachary ty Brian has gone from beloved sitcom star to
Speaker 5: behind bars once again again Home Improvement Alone.
Speaker 1: His face is all grab and that looks like he's
Speaker 1: lost some weight. Yeah, on account of what this guy arrested?
Speaker 1: What did you say? Six times? Six times in five years,
Speaker 1: six times in five years.
Speaker 2: He was still serving a three year probation from twenty
Speaker 2: twenty three when he got arrested this last time.
Speaker 1: Yeah, his fiance is also being held at the same jail.
Speaker 1: Very clear that these two should be nowhere near one another.
Speaker 1: They should not be anywhere in the same vicinity, as
Speaker 1: they have a kid too. They have a kid together,
Speaker 1: which makes things even worse to I believe it or not.
Speaker 5: And his girlfriend, Johnny fake Hartwright were both arrested in Eugene, Oregon,
Speaker 5: and page six has a full timeline of the actor's
Speaker 5: history of domestic violence. On Saturday, November twenty ninth, the
Speaker 5: forty four year old was arrested for violating his probation
Speaker 5: stemming from his twenty twenty three arrest on assault and
Speaker 5: robbery charges following a dispute with an unidentified woman.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think it might be the same woman. Yeah.
Speaker 2: In Oregon, again, he and Cartwright were involved in a
Speaker 2: drunken dispute. He was initially hit with multiple charges, ended
Speaker 2: up being convicted of menacing. He was still improbation from
Speaker 2: that case when the second incident occurred. Since then, he
Speaker 2: has racked up more arrest a duy in Oklahoma, another
Speaker 2: case in South Carolina where he was accused of assaulting
Speaker 2: and strangling the same lady.
Speaker 1: And I know a lot of you might come at
Speaker 1: Tim Allen and say, what a piss poor job of
Speaker 1: parenting you've done here, look at your son who has
Speaker 1: spun out. But I will tell you, maybe this son
Speaker 1: has been arrested six times in five years, but he's
Speaker 1: got two other kids that I haven't heard about. News
Speaker 1: fine and Mark Mark Mark, that's right. And everybody would
Speaker 1: have thought Mark, on account of the goth arc that
Speaker 1: he went through, that he probably would have been getting
Speaker 1: into some weird stuff. But no, the other kids seemed
Speaker 1: to be doing fine. They don't seem to be maladjusted.
Speaker 1: I haven't heard the name Jonathan Taylor Thomas pop up
Speaker 1: in any bad stories of you.
Speaker 3: I think he's been kind of laying low. I haven't
Speaker 3: heard his name pop up for good stories. When was
Speaker 3: the last time you saw Jonathan Taylor Thomas then show
Speaker 3: up to anything?
Speaker 4: No, it was like a paparazzi like photo, and unfortunately.
Speaker 1: It was like, God, is he in anything? I have
Speaker 1: his IMDb and the last thing he was in was
Speaker 1: The Last man Standing Last man Standing, which is another
Speaker 1: Tim Allen series. He was in Last man Standing for
Speaker 1: four episodes before that till two year olds in The
Speaker 1: Lion King Read Along, and then a bunch of stuff
Speaker 1: you probably haven't seen. He was in Eight Simple Rules,
Speaker 1: the TV show, but he just stopped. He just stopped
Speaker 1: working about fourteen years ago. Basically hasn't done much.
Speaker 4: If this is correct, April this year, Randy or the
Speaker 4: golf Kid?
Speaker 1: Mark? Yeah, Mark Okay turned forty one. No, that seems
Speaker 1: Oh is this really Jonathan Taylor Thomas? Yeah it is.
Speaker 1: I think I saw this during the pandemic or something
Speaker 1: like a like an SD card in his mouth or something.
Speaker 1: His age. Now, I like it sucks because everybody's like,
Speaker 1: where is that Tiger beat cutie that we put on
Speaker 1: our walls. Now he's in his forties, dude, he's a
Speaker 1: grown ass man. Was it was a hot e. It
Speaker 1: was a heart throb for a long time.
Speaker 2: I'll be home for Christmas, which was a huge hit
Speaker 2: because he was a cute but duty in that and
Speaker 2: then what happened.
Speaker 1: He just said, I'm gonna take the money and I'm
Speaker 1: gonna run. I'm gonna get the hell out of all
Speaker 1: this stuff. Some emails coming in BH emails about door
Speaker 1: dash deliveries and says sometimes pizza places use third party
Speaker 1: delivery services during peak delivery times. This may be why
Speaker 1: the DoorDash driver was bringing Papa John's. The DoorDash driver.
Speaker 1: The family that was delivered to wants charge because the
Speaker 1: DoorDash driver dropped the chicken wing on the ground and
Speaker 1: picked it back up and didn't tell them put it
Speaker 1: in their food. Marco's Pizza does it all the time.
Speaker 1: VH says, absolutely annoying. When they use door dash, you
Speaker 1: get a text at every stage of the delivery process,
Speaker 1: he says. Casey says, I drive and most pizza places
Speaker 1: don't even have drivers anymore. They all go out to
Speaker 1: DoorDash or Uber and a lot of other people are
Speaker 1: sending in some stuff that'll get to eventually here on
Speaker 1: the show, to tips at the news Junkie dot com.
Speaker 1: Tips at the News Junkie dot com. But we do
Speaker 1: have to take a quick break. A streamer has done
Speaker 1: the unthinkable, the absolutely unthinkable. We'll work that in next
Speaker 1: on the show, you'll hear what happened in Jury Duty.
Speaker 1: We have our Anna Kepner murder mystery cruise story updates.
Speaker 1: Some interesting twists and turns coming in on that one,
Speaker 1: and when we return. Alongside this streamer update, we've also
Speaker 1: got a clip that I've been wanting to play for you,
Speaker 1: something that went down to a movie theater. That is
Speaker 1: it's too far. It truly is too far. It almost
Speaker 1: makes me want to stay out of the theater. What
Speaker 1: happened and what should you know about it? That's coming
Speaker 1: up next on the News Junkie. This is brutal, but
Speaker 1: I love it, love it, love it, love it. I
Speaker 1: didn't know this, but young kids are still very much
Speaker 1: into Pokemon, even into Pokemon Go. Young kids are still
Speaker 1: playing Pokemon Go to this day. The adults have gotten
Speaker 1: out of it, the young kids are still doing their thing.
Speaker 1: Caught them all by now no, yeah, it's like the
Speaker 1: same kind of thing. I think it even looks almost
Speaker 1: the same as when we were all playing it so
Speaker 1: many years ago. But there's a new Pokemon theme park
Speaker 1: that's opening up in Tokyo, which is Japan.
Speaker 4: So they finally announced this and was on the project.
Speaker 1: Oh really Okay. The Pokemon theme park is called Poke
Speaker 1: Park Conto Poke Conto Japan over in Tokyo, Japan, and
Speaker 1: it's a Pokemon area, including a Pokemon Forest, nature trail,
Speaker 1: and lots of other things that they have. But before
Speaker 1: you can go into one area of this Pokemon theme park,
Speaker 1: they make the kids take a fitness test, which I love.
Speaker 1: I think is so fantastic because I used to remember
Speaker 1: how how frightening and how just bad it was to
Speaker 1: think about having to do the fitness tests at school,
Speaker 1: and I was trying to else. Oh my god. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and for us. A lot of times they would separate
Speaker 1: the guys and girls at Crestwood Middle School where I went,
Speaker 1: and they would and I go, oh, thank god, so
Speaker 1: the girls can't see me trying to climb a roper
Speaker 1: or or do pull ups or something. They would separate us,
Speaker 1: but we'd just be on different sides of the gymnasium.
Speaker 4: So the line for your turn, so you're looking over
Speaker 4: at the other side.
Speaker 1: Yep, everybody's looking up and they're like, oh, you're good.
Speaker 1: Sean's supposed to climb all the way to the top
Speaker 1: of this rope, and I'm like holding onto the bottom.
Speaker 1: I think I made it very high on that rope
Speaker 1: at all. I didn't either, Well, that probably should have.
Speaker 1: But they're bringing it back for this Pokemon theme park
Speaker 1: because they want to make sure that these kids can
Speaker 1: handle this. This hike. All right, it's a forest walk
Speaker 1: and you have to be at least five years old,
Speaker 1: and you have to pass a fitness test. I think
Speaker 1: I can say with all authority. I'm not saying we down.
Speaker 1: I'm not saying we're the most fit video show. If
Speaker 1: I took you down, that's it.
Speaker 4: Funny thing is I could take all twelve of them down.
Speaker 1: I'm not trying to pick a fight with kids either,
Speaker 1: but I think we all would pass this fitness test.
Speaker 1: The fitness test they have to pass to see if
Speaker 1: they can get into this Pokemon Land area is they
Speaker 1: have to climb one hundred and ten stairs. New ceiling
Speaker 1: doesn't seem happy about it, but I think I think
Speaker 1: we can make it. I think all of us would
Speaker 1: be able to make it.
Speaker 3: Is the is the area in question at the top
Speaker 3: of the stairs, and there's just no elevator.
Speaker 1: I don't know. It doesn't say it says. After announcing
Speaker 1: the official opening date for Pokemark Kanto, which is February
Speaker 1: fifth next year, yum Yomori Land outlined two requirements to
Speaker 1: access the five hundred meter trail through the Pokemon Forest.
Speaker 1: You have to be five and you have to prove
Speaker 1: you can handle climbing one hundred and ten stairs.
Speaker 4: I mean, that makes sense.
Speaker 1: They don't want people getting stuck out there. It's a
Speaker 1: wilderness trail that is over sixteen hundred feet in length.
Speaker 1: It features various terrains including hilly pass tall grass tunnels,
Speaker 1: rocky trails, and more. They don't want some loser kids
Speaker 1: out there who can't finish this trail off. For God's sake,
Speaker 1: I want more tests for people. I want more tests
Speaker 1: to ensure that people are physically fit, as many as possible,
Speaker 1: for young kids in particular, because I want to make
Speaker 1: sure we're keeping you on your toes and you think
Speaker 1: about it when you're a little kid and you're like,
Speaker 1: should I have another burrito? And you know, God, next
Speaker 1: week is the Pokemon test. Don't want to be doing that.
Speaker 1: I don't think I'll be in good shape anymore. It's dangerous.
Speaker 1: It's dangerous out there.
Speaker 4: Yeah, just wait until you're older and you could do
Speaker 4: it by yourself.
Speaker 1: Hey, most of the kids on Stranger Things could do
Speaker 1: this test. I don't know about that.
Speaker 4: Not that new fat kid.
Speaker 1: The one kid does strik Derek. I don't even know
Speaker 1: if I've met him yet on the on the new
Speaker 1: season of Stranger Things. Yeah, I didn't know Stranger Things
Speaker 1: had fat kids. Well, boy, they got the cute goofy kid,
Speaker 1: Caleb something or the other is his name, you know,
Speaker 1: a little red haired kid or whatever.
Speaker 3: He's the one that's been doing a bunch of stuff
Speaker 3: on Broadway. I think right, Dustin is his name.
Speaker 4: Then the Stranger Things kids anymore, they're all like eighteen.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, twenties, they're in their early twenties now. But
Speaker 1: he's the one because I think he has some like
Speaker 1: actual health issues. I think everybody care up. I did
Speaker 1: a wormhole of his disease or his syndrome. Basically, it's
Speaker 1: where you have no collar bone essentially, so yeah he can.
Speaker 1: He has crazy flexibility because of lack of collarbone. This
Speaker 1: kid here, kayton no madazzo.
Speaker 2: Garrow your front teeth most of the time. There it
Speaker 2: is CCD earlier personal life.
Speaker 1: Early personal life. Yes, CCD. He had to go every
Speaker 1: Tuesday to church and learn about Jesus clydo cranial disotosis.
Speaker 1: Thank you for everybody who's got that CCD joke. Yeah
Speaker 1: what what a bager? I got the Catholic joke. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I got it. But CCD in this case doesn't mean
Speaker 1: that it's clydo cranial displays you and look at the
Speaker 1: wiki page. Does not look like his, oh grandfather. They
Speaker 1: show a dude who had this issue in eighteen ninety
Speaker 1: eight that they have a photo of and he's just
Speaker 1: shirtless and this awesome photo.
Speaker 4: Looks like a lollipop gild one.
Speaker 1: He looks like he's been in movies. He looks like
Speaker 1: the Dunkin Donuts guy. Maybe that's it, time to make
Speaker 1: the donuts. He's got a mustache that goes from one
Speaker 1: side of his chin to the other side.
Speaker 4: Is that an abnormal bone density?
Speaker 2: And they all it's everyone kind of looks the same
Speaker 2: they grow obviously much different, and.
Speaker 1: Some of them don't have the teeth like.
Speaker 4: Or lack thereof, you know, growing issue.
Speaker 2: But the collarbone thing is also and I realized that
Speaker 2: in the first season they were you know, making fun
Speaker 2: of him because he didn't have any teeth, but then
Speaker 2: they were like, Dustin do the weird arm thing, and
Speaker 2: then he would do this crazy arm thing.
Speaker 1: They can't do it without a collarbone.
Speaker 2: Yeah, so he does look older, but everyone else looks
Speaker 2: significantly older, to the point where this is also where
Speaker 2: a lot of women I think are having some issues
Speaker 2: in the sense of they're of age the actors, but
Speaker 2: are you can you like say that they're hot if
Speaker 2: they're playing high schoolers.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean they're twenty something years old. These are
Speaker 1: grown adults. Like if a grown man says eleven from
Speaker 1: Stranger Things is attractive woman.
Speaker 4: I've been waiting for her to turn eighteen.
Speaker 1: She's twenty. It's twenty something years old. Hold on, hold
Speaker 1: on your ad on there does make it weird If
Speaker 1: he says I've been waiting for her before, have you not.
Speaker 1: I've heard that with the Olsen twins and stuff. But
Speaker 1: if they just said right now looking at her she's attractive,
Speaker 1: she's in her twenties. They're in the twenties. Now, they're
Speaker 1: not kids anymore. They are like, even though they're playing kids,
Speaker 1: they are still playing kids. They're playing high schoolers. They're
Speaker 1: playing kids in this timeline that they're in, but none
Speaker 1: of them actually are anymore. They've grown up before our
Speaker 1: eyes here And I guess now people are calling season
Speaker 1: five woke. According to the next episode thing, I take it.
Speaker 2: It was like one article and uh, it was a
Speaker 2: guy who started the website comicbook dot news.
Speaker 1: What's what's woke about it? What do they say was
Speaker 1: woke because the gay lady is like a lesbian lady,
Speaker 1: lesbian lady and everything now, But yeah, of course absolutely lady.
Speaker 2: And I thought, uh, do UTOPI you didn't have anything
Speaker 2: And thanks to my friend Danny Fortune for a meister
Speaker 2: who is a very gay comedian voices the Beaverhill.
Speaker 1: No I did.
Speaker 4: I didn't get to it.
Speaker 2: And I was going to be very facetious and sarcastic
Speaker 2: when reading this man's article because he seems to have
Speaker 2: his straight panties and a bunch.
Speaker 1: She voices the beaver Yes she does. It's like getting
Speaker 1: hired to voice a steak exactly.
Speaker 4: We're still there, still prominent, still gaf.
Speaker 1: Job was that? Was that what the complaint was? The
Speaker 1: complaint has just said there's gay characters.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm heading straight to disappointment. The forced LGBT insertions
Speaker 2: feel like half the writers and producers self inserted the elements,
Speaker 2: or because Netflix paid for DEI quotas likely both. Robin
Speaker 2: should have been cut entirely. Every line she delivers is
Speaker 2: annoying and too much.
Speaker 1: Yes, no, she's good.
Speaker 4: He's a great, huge fan and you know who your
Speaker 4: parents are and really is.
Speaker 1: There's a lot of people whose brains melted in the
Speaker 1: last ten years. Uh, well, hold on one second. There's
Speaker 1: a lot of people whose brains melted in the last
Speaker 1: ten years. And while there was all this weird overreach stuff,
Speaker 1: and there was stuff that you could like classify as
Speaker 1: woken obnoxious and crammed down, it's not I don't have
Speaker 1: any problem personally if there's like a gay character on
Speaker 1: a television show, that shouldn't be one of the things
Speaker 1: people are raging against. There are things that I think
Speaker 1: people have the right to rage against, but this is
Speaker 1: I've only seen two episodes, but I haven't seen anything
Speaker 1: at all that seemed what I would call political in.
Speaker 4: The in the fifth season pages on it page.
Speaker 1: Who's the parent of the radio DJ girl and stranger things.
Speaker 4: Ethan Hawk and oh my god.
Speaker 1: Hawk, Oh damn it it was. It's another famous moment.
Speaker 1: Looks just like, really another NEPO baby. Huh, there's so
Speaker 1: many in Hollywood now, it's crazy.
Speaker 4: Parents, parents, come on, must Yeah, but she's a great actress.
Speaker 1: Yeah. What's crazy is there are all of these Nepple
Speaker 1: babies in Hollywood right now, from Philip Seymour Hoffman's kid
Speaker 1: to Jack Nichol Nicholson's kid, two Aids kid, Kwaid's kid.
Speaker 1: And and they're good Dennis not Randy. Yeah, they're they're good.
Speaker 1: They're all getting attention for being the children who are
Speaker 1: now actors of already famous Hollywood.
Speaker 4: So you guys didn't know that.
Speaker 1: And she doesn't think they're all good. Yeah, I think
Speaker 1: she's good.
Speaker 4: I think she's three one. Chad Hanks, Oh yeah, yeah.
Speaker 1: Hold on for real? Is he really a Nepple baby.
Speaker 1: He hasn't gotten famous off of He's been famous for
Speaker 1: being cringe. She's not like nobody actually listens to his music.
Speaker 1: Or anything.
Speaker 4: Yeah, but he's getting that attention because he's kid.
Speaker 1: Oh he's getting attention cringe music. But I when I
Speaker 1: hear Nepple baby, I think that that means a person
Speaker 1: got an unfair advantage, job, an unfair advantage or like
Speaker 1: a job because their parents were famous. And the only
Speaker 1: thing I ever care about is are they good or not?
Speaker 1: Because if your parents are famous and you're still an
Speaker 1: amazing actor, you should have some agency there. If you
Speaker 1: suck and you're only in the movie because of X reason,
Speaker 1: that's where there's a problem. All right, That's where I
Speaker 1: find an issue quick break. When we come back, we'll
Speaker 1: get into I wanted to get into that streamer moment,
Speaker 1: but that works well in Jury Duty. Actually it does
Speaker 1: because this person is in big trouble right now. We'll
Speaker 1: get to the cruise murder mystery updates. Anna Kupnik. Her
Speaker 1: story has some big updates. We've been following this closely.
Speaker 1: All of that is coming up next in the news.
Speaker 1: Chunk key everywhere I saw for Black Friday, it was
Speaker 1: just a ghost town. Man, it was a ghost tat.
Speaker 4: Some of the deals online start that early too, and.
Speaker 1: They're better, Like, why am I ever going to go
Speaker 1: to the store if I can get the same exact
Speaker 1: thing online free shipping exactly. I don't. I'm not looking
Speaker 1: for things to do that bad. But if you were
Speaker 1: looking for something to buy on Cyber Monday, you have
Speaker 1: about five seconds to get one of the roast shirts
Speaker 1: set up for the Cyber Monday deal. You get the
Speaker 1: roast shirt, and you get a digital download card for
Speaker 1: the Roast event when it goes live next week. So
Speaker 1: you are a friend, maybe you know somebody who really
Speaker 1: likes the show. You could give this to them as
Speaker 1: a great gift or for yourself. Four Excel sold out,
Speaker 1: Three Excel sold out to Excel, so hold out. Excel
Speaker 1: sold out, Small sold out. All we have left are
Speaker 1: two medium and nine larges. That's it, and then all
Speaker 1: of those are gone for Cyber Monday, so grab them
Speaker 1: while you can. Over at the Newsjunkie dot Com. Just
Speaker 1: hit that merch button and gobble those up. Post Turkey Day.
Speaker 1: Here Jacob emails the show and he says this the
Speaker 1: tips of the Newsjunkie dot Com. Am I the bad guy.
Speaker 1: We can help him, right, we can help him determine
Speaker 1: if he's guy. I love these says. What's up news junkie.
Speaker 1: It's me Jacob, and I just need your opinion. So
Speaker 1: a couple months back, around June of this year, my
Speaker 1: uncle said he had a buddy who's a mechanic, and
Speaker 1: he said he had a car that he wanted to
Speaker 1: sell to me. He requested a down payment of two
Speaker 1: five hundred dollars to replace the transmission. Well, three months
Speaker 1: go by and I got tired of waiting for the
Speaker 1: car to be finished, so I requested my money back,
Speaker 1: basically after months of being laid off with excuses. He
Speaker 1: tells me earlier this month that the guy got deported,
Speaker 1: which basically means I'm not getting my money at all.
Speaker 1: Please tell me if I'm in the wrong for skipping
Speaker 1: Thanksgiving this year. All my cousin are mad at me
Speaker 1: for holding a grudge against my uncle. I know my
Speaker 1: uncle will be there at Thanksgiving, and I'm just really pissed.
Speaker 1: I don't want my actions to ruin it for everybody else.
Speaker 1: Wiggle wiggle pop pop, says Jacob. So you have the
Speaker 1: right to be wrong, he says. His uncle told him, Hey,
Speaker 1: this guy's got a great deal on a car. He
Speaker 1: wants to say, then the guy got deported. And so
Speaker 1: he's got no car and no money to replace the car.
Speaker 1: I mean, I don't. I don't think it's the guy's fault.
Speaker 1: It's not your uncle's fault that this guy got deported.
Speaker 1: Where's the money? And less nless it is, where's where's
Speaker 1: what money? Where's the.
Speaker 4: Yeah, like, someone gets supported, where is this money?
Speaker 1: This guy's like, if you're deporting me, I'm taking all
Speaker 1: the money I got with me. See you later. Your
Speaker 1: uncle might have been trying to legitimately set you up
Speaker 1: with a good deal. He could have been trying to
Speaker 1: hook you up and give you a really great deal,
Speaker 1: and then it's a big chunk and then well then
Speaker 1: the uncle doesn't know. Next thing you know, they've got
Speaker 1: these ice raids going on, and Julio gets picked up
Speaker 1: in the ice raid, and now you're not getting your
Speaker 1: money back. I think it depends on a lot of things.
Speaker 1: Is your uncle being a dick about it? Or is
Speaker 1: your uncle like, oh god, I'm so sorry. I actually
Speaker 1: thought this would be a good deal for you.
Speaker 2: I got another guy. If you act fast, he won't
Speaker 2: be recorded for another year.
Speaker 1: Well what do you think? Do you guys think that
Speaker 1: it's a tough position? I think it depends on the
Speaker 1: If the uncle's being cool about it. Now he's being cool,
Speaker 1: then I think you should chill out.
Speaker 4: I mean, if he's really cool, he'll help find a
Speaker 4: transmission for the car.
Speaker 1: I mean, what is any of this a worthwhile reason
Speaker 1: to not go spend time with your family.
Speaker 2: I think it's a reason to knock get into an
Speaker 2: awkward conversation at Thanksgiving.
Speaker 1: Yeah, you don't have to do that.
Speaker 4: Uncle going to bring it up if.
Speaker 2: You want to insert himself into getting him a good
Speaker 2: deal with transmission included, just for twenty five hundred dollars,
Speaker 2: he's going to bring it up with things.
Speaker 1: I got the vibe though, that he was more worried
Speaker 1: about himself bringing it up. That's what he's like. I
Speaker 1: don't want to ruin Thanksgiving because I feel like I'll
Speaker 1: bring it up and I'll start yelling at my uncle.
Speaker 4: I mean, I can appreciate that people.
Speaker 1: People got it chill. You know how to behave in public,
Speaker 1: you know how to not mess up family gatherings, you
Speaker 1: know how to get some of your things. We have
Speaker 1: not regressed to the point that people think we've regressed.
Speaker 1: People think we've point regrets to the point where we
Speaker 1: can't disagree with people politically anymore. You must abandon your family.
Speaker 1: You get to a fight with somebody, you can't show
Speaker 1: up for the Thanksgiving holiday with your family. No talk,
Speaker 1: your adults talk talk to each other unless you've done
Speaker 1: all the talking and it's just not going to work.
Speaker 1: If that's the case, then you know, screw your uncle.
Speaker 1: But I don't know if you're there then no, no,
Speaker 1: not not physically, I mean in terms of just steal
Speaker 1: this car that things You had any comments for him

Speaker 1: how how does this happen?
Speaker 6: You know?
Speaker 1: You know how?
Speaker 4: Because you didn't put that ring all the way up.
Speaker 1: Then it would go the other direction at Toddler with
Speaker 1: superhuman strength. I don't know what did it, but if
Speaker 1: this is a prank of some type of sea lion,
Speaker 1: then they would have to cook and make all of
Speaker 1: this prop food. You don't that they would not do that.
Speaker 1: I think they could, but I think it might be
Speaker 1: real because it looks kind of catastrophic. I'm putting this
Speaker 1: up on see it now. See you guys could take
Speaker 1: a peek. I did not make a turkey this year.
Speaker 1: I had a turkey la. Nobody wanted it, so wow,
Speaker 1: sad was very good.
Speaker 3: But I'm just saying it was just like an extra turkey.
Speaker 3: And then Ashley comes in the kitchen the other day
Speaker 3: and she's like, the turkey is uh like the way
Speaker 3: she described it, like, the turkey is just like machine
Speaker 3: gunning raw turkey juice all over the garage fridge. It
Speaker 3: was just a little bit of it and started to
Speaker 3: leak out. I was like, okay, I'll take care of it.
Speaker 3: The turkey went away.
Speaker 1: That's sad. We want to see your turkeys, though, We
Speaker 1: want to see what your spreads looked like. I already
Speaker 1: got a bunch of these coming through. Let me we
Speaker 1: work up a couple of them. John Boy says, this
Speaker 1: is my Thanksgiving turkey. Whoa damn buddy, That is a robust,
Speaker 1: lookout turkey that you sent this over here. This is
Speaker 1: John Boys. This is Billy crazy drunk cat lady who
Speaker 1: sent it. Okay, that is part of this isn't real.
Speaker 1: Cat isn't there. The rest of it is real. There's
Speaker 1: a cat coming out of the trees. Oh it's offensive
Speaker 1: these days. Yeah. Oh, here's a huge spread from a
Speaker 1: snoop frog. I think send it falls over. Yeah, it
Speaker 1: looks exactly the table that just completely tumbled in that.
Speaker 1: And here's this, say is Thanksgiving fried turkey dinner I
Speaker 1: made for the hospital. Oh that's very sweet. And they
Speaker 1: got there set up their spread. Rate my blank this
Speaker 1: week is rate my turkey. Send us your Thanksgiving spread.
Speaker 1: Is a photo dispatch over on the news junkie dot com.
Speaker 1: Did you guys see the coworker of ours who had
Speaker 1: a little bit of a mishap ordering Instacart over the
Speaker 1: Thanksgiving break? I don't think one of our salespeople, and
Speaker 1: I think I think weirdly enough, she was ordering it
Speaker 1: for her parents. She told me, like, her dad is
Speaker 1: recovering from surgery, her mom's not feeling well, and so
Speaker 1: she was trying to help them out, and she ordered
Speaker 1: like five ukon gold potatoes for them, and they opened
Speaker 1: the door and sent her a picture. It was like
Speaker 1: a fifty pound box of russets. Oh even lift it.
Speaker 1: She like posted on Facebook trying to find someone arms.
Speaker 3: Where they could donate it to because it's like potatoes
Speaker 3: are going to go to waste, like they should go
Speaker 3: to a kitchen somewhere that's helping people for the holidays.
Speaker 3: But unlike my turkey, were just the unceremoniously dropped into
Speaker 3: the waist.
Speaker 1: Your turkey died for no reasons, juice the garage is
Speaker 1: turkey lived a whole life, just murdered. Aj Soup says,
Speaker 1: I made the turkey for friends Giving. Oh yeah, we
Speaker 1: saw that this good looking turkey too bush down. That
Speaker 1: was pretty damn sexy looking. This is its hams. But
Speaker 1: does this does this count? Yeah? Your ham counts. Your
Speaker 1: lovely family sitting down here with your thanks Giving spread.
Speaker 1: You can see all these over on the news junkie
Speaker 1: dot com in the dispatches section. If you have one
Speaker 1: that you think should win. This is something that we bring,
Speaker 1: says and Jahua. We make turkey biscuits. That's cute. The
Speaker 1: shape of a turkey, which is kind of adorable. It
Speaker 1: looks at focused on the one behind it. The one
Speaker 1: behind it is pretty perfect. That's a turkey. Turkey in
Speaker 1: front is a little worse for wear. I guess you
Speaker 1: could say, my wife has an insane list of allergies,
Speaker 1: so I made a Korean pecan pie that's gorgeous. By
Speaker 1: the way, looking good doesn't count in sass of allergies,
Speaker 1: but she can eat pecans, I guess.
Speaker 5: So.
Speaker 1: Yeah. The bottom line is it might be rate my
Speaker 1: turkey for rate my blank today, but anything that's related
Speaker 1: to your Thanksgiving meal makes the cut. We'll see what
Speaker 1: you have going on. Let us know. Lots of people
Speaker 1: sending in their photo dispatches. We'll take a peek at
Speaker 1: more of these momentarily. Here. I wanted to bring this
Speaker 1: with you because we tease it. There was a streamer
Speaker 1: they said, it's a twitch streamer. Might have been a kickstreamer.
Speaker 1: They might be catching some strays over at Kick. But
Speaker 1: a streamer by the name of melt and the account
Speaker 1: melt is Live was in Atlanta driving around with four
Speaker 1: passengers in the vehicle when they crashed. They were in
Speaker 1: the middle of driving down the freeway. This is the
Speaker 1: same thing that happened to the kid that just got
Speaker 1: arrested down in Miami. The YouTuber he was on. Maybe
Speaker 1: it was Kick that he got booted off of. It
Speaker 1: tends to be Sea Land.
Speaker 3: Yeah, but he was like, crash at Lamborghini, seriously hurt
Speaker 3: one of the passengers while doing a little stream.
Speaker 1: Uh huh. His cameraman, don't say little stream. It's a
Speaker 1: just a normal stream. It's a regular stream.
Speaker 4: Jack Jackson, Jack d Jack Doerty, Doerty.
Speaker 1: Yeah, Jack Doherty. Yeah, yeah, he was the one who
Speaker 1: got busted in Miami. Yes, this is Melt. I don't
Speaker 1: know who the hell that is. But here, let me
Speaker 1: mute this. Yeah, they're they're already speeding. Here's the thing.
Speaker 2: I have never related to someone more than that passenger.
Speaker 2: It was like, trust, I'm just gonna cover my eyes.
Speaker 4: It's gonna happen.
Speaker 1: And she does know, she does, so she just goes, well,
Speaker 1: we're going to crash, might as well not.
Speaker 4: Look that's such a bad rack, man.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's rough. It was a bad crash because they
Speaker 1: were driving around like idiots, trying to go viral on
Speaker 1: their stream and they crashed in the middle of it.
Speaker 1: And then of course chat goes, oh my god, oh
Speaker 1: my god, I got go go get that all of
Speaker 1: the reaction from this thing. I don't think you read
Speaker 1: every one of those. Actually most of them just said
Speaker 1: oh my god or o MFG. Other ones said words
Speaker 1: that I won't necessarily need to repeat here in public.
Speaker 4: Were they interacting with them the whole time?
Speaker 1: They were I think it's a dash.
Speaker 2: Cam and someone's live, you know, as long as they're
Speaker 2: still paying attention to the road.
Speaker 1: I don't.
Speaker 2: I don't mind that as much as like, there was
Speaker 2: a lady who killed a pedestrian earlier last month or
Speaker 2: the month before, and she was like straight up responding,
Speaker 2: holding her phone up. She's like, yeah, I can't believe that,
Speaker 2: oh kills a guy. You can hear the kid in
Speaker 2: the back, Like, what was that crazy?
Speaker 4: She was doing it?
Speaker 1: Uh poorly.
Speaker 4: I mean, obviously you still sucked at driving at that point.
Speaker 1: But to me, how is it not just flat out
Speaker 1: against the tos at every single streamer. You should not
Speaker 1: be able to drive and stream. If you'd stream and
Speaker 1: you're driving, you're behind the wheel of the car. Immediate
Speaker 1: band like, you should not be able to do this
Speaker 1: on any of these platforms. This isn't complicated, and it's
Speaker 1: not even just about like the people in the car
Speaker 1: because they're idiots, and now they're all probably hurt as
Speaker 1: a result of this, but even worse where they can
Speaker 1: run into other people who are just driving on the
Speaker 1: streets on their Thanksgiving break. The streamers trying to go
Speaker 1: after clout and space books end up ruin it for everybody.
Speaker 1: So yeah, really dumb. All streamers should ban that immediately.
Speaker 1: You shouldn't be able to stream and drive.
Speaker 3: The problem with the Jack Dowerty thing was he was
Speaker 3: reading the chat room like to try to interact with people.
Speaker 1: Yeah, the Lamborghini crash was previous in New York. The
Speaker 1: thing that got him in trouble was he was in
Speaker 1: the middle of the street. This guy's Jack Daherty. If
Speaker 1: you don't know, he's a content creator who makes terribly
Speaker 1: annoying videos. Usually it's him shoulder checking somebody and then
Speaker 1: his bodyguard gets in the way. It's so lame. Two
Speaker 1: is now of age, but his parents have supported him
Speaker 1: in this the whole time because he's made himself mega rich.
Speaker 1: And he literally says, well, I'm not going to go
Speaker 1: viral for doing something positive, so who cares if I'm
Speaker 1: the bad guy? And so he crashed a supercar at
Speaker 1: one point in time and hurt his camera man, and
Speaker 1: I was wrong. It was a McLaren that he crashed
Speaker 1: last year. The last one that he just got arrested
Speaker 1: for in Miami was he was in the road and
Speaker 1: the cops go, get out of the road, and he goes,
Speaker 1: when I'm done paying off this bet, I'll do it.
Speaker 1: I'm not done when I'm done with my stream And
Speaker 1: the cops said no, and I said, we don't care
Speaker 1: who you are, We're arresting you. Some of these streamers
Speaker 1: are legitimately out of control, and it's out stop them.
Speaker 5: This.
Speaker 1: A Wikipedia page says.
Speaker 3: Doherty recalled his time in jail as quote the worst
Speaker 3: twenty four hours ever end quote ever in.
Speaker 1: The history of humanity. This seems worse. Imagine you get
Speaker 1: a ticket to the AMC Theaters in Los Angeles and
Speaker 1: when you arrive at your seat, this is what you
Speaker 1: see on your movie. See this is what happened to
Speaker 1: these particular folks. I don't know what that is, but
Speaker 1: it looks like it would glow under the black light,
Speaker 1: would be my guess, on this particular seat. And they
Speaker 1: claim like a homeless night at theaters. They said, hey,
Speaker 1: AMC Theaters and La do better, and they publish these
Speaker 1: photos of the chair with ew. I don't know what's
Speaker 1: on it, but.
Speaker 4: It's Regal would never winter Park.
Speaker 1: I thank god, thank god, because this is disgusting. Eh Man,
Speaker 1: What is that I talked to? I learned two things
Speaker 1: this this Thanksgiving break. I talked to Courtney's niece, who
Speaker 1: is seventeen years old and very few things in common
Speaker 1: with her, as you might guess. So I try to
Speaker 1: look for things that I can talk to her or
Speaker 1: ask about, or maybe I read something. Do you know
Speaker 1: what she did? Immediately as we show up to the
Speaker 1: Thanksgiving thing, she goes, let's get some pictures and she
Speaker 1: takes out her digital camera and I go, she's doing
Speaker 1: it too.
Speaker 3: I thought you were going to be like, oh she
Speaker 3: she told us she took six or seven pictures, and then.
Speaker 1: Now she didn't do the stupid six seven thing. Thank god.
Speaker 1: Digital camera? What is it? She a, it's an actual
Speaker 1: digital camera? And I go, why are people using the
Speaker 1: digital cameras? Again? You have your phone. Your phone has
Speaker 1: a great camera on it. Is it like a throwback thing?
Speaker 1: And she goes, no, the lighting is better. So all
Speaker 1: of my friends, we all have these digital cameras. Now
Speaker 1: we take pictures on the digital cameras and then we
Speaker 1: WiFi them to our iPhones so that we can post
Speaker 1: them online phone.
Speaker 4: I'm not coming at the niece because obviously this is
Speaker 4: a trend.
Speaker 1: I think she's wrong. Camera or like back in the day,
Speaker 1: a digital camera that costs one hundred dollars or something.
Speaker 1: There's no way it's better than your iPhone, which is
Speaker 1: one thousand dollars camera. Essentially, it's just not bat Your
Speaker 1: android phone is a better camera.
Speaker 4: Just got that new one?
Speaker 1: Uh? Did you worth the upgrade? Man? Yeah, I just
Speaker 1: have thirty months to I don't even have the new one.
Speaker 1: You got your thirty month phone bill, you got your
Speaker 1: fifty year mortgage, you got your er. Look it up.
Speaker 1: What is the car payment plan that they have now that?
Speaker 4: Oh that's also I'm pretty sure.
Speaker 2: Or if you want a used vehicle, it's just a
Speaker 2: cool forty eight thousand dollars.
Speaker 1: So I was talking with her about this and she goes, yeah,
Speaker 1: all my friends now use digital cameras and then we
Speaker 1: wi fi to our phones because the lighting is better.
Speaker 1: I don't know if that's true, but that's what she said.
Speaker 1: And then I had asked her because she works at
Speaker 1: the movie theater. I said, hey, have you had any
Speaker 1: movies where the crap on the seats where they're filthy,
Speaker 1: where you got to go in and it's like a
Speaker 1: real pin in the ass. And she goes, no, we
Speaker 1: have pretty good equipment. And I said equipment. She goes, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: when the movie theater empties out, we go in there
Speaker 1: with the equipment. She goes, If it's a movie where
Speaker 1: they spilled a bunch of popcorn, we have a blower.
Speaker 1: It's like I never talk about When we get back
Speaker 1: on that, I was like, I never considered this. They
Speaker 1: go in there like my pretty smart guy and they
Speaker 1: have like a whole thing of stuff that they use,
Speaker 1: and she said, it's it. It hasn't ever been really
Speaker 1: that bad. But this is gross. This is some show.
Speaker 1: It is nasty.
Speaker 4: Do you realize how the tables have turned?
Speaker 1: What do you mean how the tables have turned? Oh?
Speaker 1: I used to be asked that.
Speaker 2: We're like, what kind of music do you play in
Speaker 2: your station? Like, yeah, let's talk radio.
Speaker 1: But it's not like that.
Speaker 4: Now you're the uncle that's not an uncle, Like.
Speaker 1: I look about the movie there. I am just trying
Speaker 1: to in silent moments when there's a seventeen year old
Speaker 1: next to me, What do I say? That's not weird?
Speaker 1: So I go, hey, we work in the movie theater
Speaker 1: and the movie's been crazy. Only people do catch making out?
Speaker 1: How's the wicked fronts? Are the people in wickeds throwing
Speaker 1: a bunch of popcorn everywhere? They swab? What's going on?
Speaker 1: I like the idea of the small talk being, hey,
Speaker 1: how's insert the only thing I know about you? What
Speaker 1: else am I going to do? I don't know? So there.
Speaker 1: I mean, I just had some somebody's asking about the
Speaker 1: little one? How's the little man? Do they? My favorite
Speaker 1: thing in the world is when Courtney keeps catching herself
Speaker 1: because she goes is Jackson getting bigger? And we started saying, like,
Speaker 1: imagine if he wasn't, And no, he's not. It is
Speaker 1: the damnest thing. He's frozen. He got some kind of
Speaker 1: stranger things grown.
Speaker 3: Yeah, he fully Andy millin August, but he can sing
Speaker 3: buster rhymes now, which is hilarious.
Speaker 1: Trade. Yeah, I think it's fine. We see yours and
Speaker 1: raise you. So you guys gonna have kids to have it? Yeah,
Speaker 1: how does that work out? That's always funny at the
Speaker 1: same time, that'd be fun that is, I put that
Speaker 1: on the level of pregnant lady belly touch where you go?
Speaker 1: What are you doing now? Your business?
Speaker 2: Get what's my middle name? And then I'll answer you know,
Speaker 2: questions about my personal life.
Speaker 1: Thank you real quick. I also wanted to share this
Speaker 1: with you right now, am I. It's a little shaky
Speaker 1: over there, It'll be okay, It'll be all right. Oh
Speaker 1: straight now. It's all because of this meme that's rocking
Speaker 1: the Twitter slash x platform, and it's of Aaron Rodgers
Speaker 1: in the game last night. Aaron Rodgers kind of seems
Speaker 1: like maybe you should have retired already. But the photo
Speaker 1: of Aaron Rodgers on the sideline, he's still playing. He's
Speaker 1: in his forties, he's still playing. And the headline says,
Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers looks like he tried to rob Kevin mcalis house.
Speaker 1: So good, he looks like he tried to rob Kevin
Speaker 1: Mcalis's house. He's got like a busted up nose, like
Speaker 1: great tape on it, and a like a beanie on
Speaker 1: his head. There there was a really good thread I
Speaker 1: read yesterday. I don't know if it was new or old,
Speaker 1: but it was it was going around there and it
Speaker 1: was these skydivers, this like club of skydivers, and I
Speaker 1: guess one of their brethren had passed away, and so
Speaker 1: they spread his ashes in the sky like they had
Speaker 1: this bag that they all like hold on at the
Speaker 1: same time, and the ashes came out and it was
Speaker 1: a lot of ashes, like a lot, a lot, a
Speaker 1: lot of ashes.
Speaker 3: And the guy's name was Ben, and all the all
Speaker 3: the comments were like how big is Ben are They're
Speaker 3: finding pictures of the tallest or fattest people they.
Speaker 1: Could find, and they're like this must be Ben.
Speaker 3: And then and then like uh, somebody had like the
Speaker 3: person who posted it said like Ben will always be
Speaker 3: in our lungs, not hearts, because like they just everybody
Speaker 3: was breathing him in. And I think one of their
Speaker 3: favorite comments was like when your doctor tells you you've
Speaker 3: been diagnosed with benz othelioma entitled the Compensation, I mean
Speaker 3: it was going hard. Well go check that out. I
Speaker 3: got the Aaron Rodgers meme photo over on see it
Speaker 3: now over on the news.
Speaker 1: Junkie dot com. Take a peek. We'll look at more
Speaker 1: of your rate my blanks and got tons of them
Speaker 1: coming in. You can check them out for yourself over
Speaker 1: on the news junky dot com in the dispatches section.
Speaker 1: We got many more things to discuss on a cyber Monday.
Speaker 1: We'll dive back into the viral pile that is coming
Speaker 1: up next in the news Chunky tips at the news
Speaker 1: junkie dot com, Jessica emails and says this is interesting.
Speaker 1: She says SeaWorld's latest ban rule faces backlash from visitors
Speaker 1: who say it violates their rights.
Speaker 4: And one you're talking about.
Speaker 1: I hadn't seen this over the weekend, but she sends
Speaker 1: along a link it's like to an app. But all
Speaker 1: the other stories about this say that the Department of Justice,
Speaker 1: I guess, is investigating SeaWorld. Now, normally when you see
Speaker 1: SeaWorld being investigated, it's about having big fish in big
Speaker 1: tanks or small tanks, depending on what you're thinking about.
Speaker 1: But the Department of Justice is investigating SeaWorld and Bush
Speaker 1: Gardens after they have banned some weeeled walkers at their
Speaker 1: theme parks. And it says the probe came two weeks
Speaker 1: after United Parks and Resorts, a global theme park firm,
Speaker 1: banned the use of some wheeled walkers with seats due
Speaker 1: to safety and liability issues and apparent misuse of the
Speaker 1: devices in its parks. A walker, if it has a seat,
Speaker 1: you've seen it, it's the.
Speaker 2: I just saw some old person like in the middle
Speaker 2: of a sidewalk sitting on it. But it's the walker
Speaker 2: and you can kind of lift it up in this
Speaker 2: little storage space, turn around and sit on it.
Speaker 1: Do you see younger people using them when they shouldn't be?
Speaker 1: Is that what's going on here?
Speaker 4: Like that'll make it easier. You're still using it as
Speaker 4: a walker.
Speaker 1: Some stuff in it's called rollater or roll it walkers
Speaker 1: roll it or walkers Grandma loves hers. These are just
Speaker 1: traditional walkers that I'm seeing here where you could, Yeah,
Speaker 1: you can push it forward as a walker and store
Speaker 1: your stuff in it, or you can flip around backwards
Speaker 1: and sit in it. And you're this.
Speaker 2: You're not moving like that, you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 2: Like it it's not like a wheelchair all of a sudden.
Speaker 1: No, No, at least you're not supposed to the Department
Speaker 1: of Justice sent in a press release that received complaints
Speaker 1: from people with disabilities about the band on the walkers
Speaker 1: with Seats known as rolater walkers. The complaints alleged they
Speaker 1: cannot access to park without their rollertors and their only
Speaker 1: alternative the parks would require them to use mobility aids
Speaker 1: that are inappropriate for their individual disabilities and to incourg charges,
Speaker 1: among other allegations. So they told them they can't have
Speaker 1: these walkers with seats. It's not certain what triggered the
Speaker 1: ban on the wheeled and seated walkers at SeaWorld, but
Speaker 1: the spokesperson said the safety incidents with guests rollers had
Speaker 1: raised concerns. Some guests have used walkers in appropriately riding,
Speaker 1: like writing them like their wheelchairs. By that while being
Speaker 1: pushed by another person, something they're not designed for. They say, so, uh,
Speaker 1: you'll become the walker police. I guess so's they're looking
Speaker 1: out for this over at sea World. Thank you Jessica
Speaker 1: for the email to tips at the Newsjunkie dot com.
Speaker 1: The White House released a it's called the Stunning video

Speaker 1: they were in some of these front row seats, and
Speaker 1: the front row seats to these games, you have a
Speaker 1: television in front of you and it says when your
