My 0:01:22.040 --> 0:01:23.679 feed was inundated with it. 0:01:23.840 --> 0:01:26.800 But I think that's because as soon as I watched it, 0:01:26.920 --> 0:01:30.520 I started interacting with people about it, and for some reason, 0:01:30.600 --> 0:01:32.960 Twitter's like this guy wants to see. 0:01:32.720 --> 0:01:36.039 This link over and over and over again.

Last week 0:01:53.800 --> 0:01:56.920 it was rate my Mess. Let's see I can go 0:01:56.960 --> 0:01:59.720 through very quickly and crown a winner. We had a 0:01:59.720 --> 0:02:03.040 lot of good entries, as per usual. Was there anything 0:02:03.080 --> 0:02:06.600 that stuck out to you? I meant to check it. 0:02:06.520 --> 0:02:11.880 On Friday and I just kind of got sidetracked in 0:02:11.919 --> 0:02:12.600 a bunch of ways. 0:02:12.720 --> 0:02:15.920 I'm kind of partial to this one. Somebody's bathtub so 0:02:16.160 --> 0:02:20.080 overfilled with crap that get in there at all. I 0:02:20.120 --> 0:02:22.560 think that's not bad. You can see all the submission 0:02:22.639 --> 0:02:25.799 see this one from high high led Mark. 0:02:26.639 --> 0:02:28.080 I think is how you say his name? 0:02:28.680 --> 0:02:32.160 I have I have a kind of a special place 0:02:32.200 --> 0:02:34.720 in my heart for that picture, because not only is 0:02:34.760 --> 0:02:41.240 the mess bad, but you're also using something that's not storage, yeah, 0:02:41.320 --> 0:02:45.440 for storage storage, And now you've got an entire piece 0:02:45.480 --> 0:02:47.080 of your house that you can't use, in this case 0:02:47.120 --> 0:02:50.200 a bathtub. Yeah, you're like your three bedroom, two bathroom 0:02:50.320 --> 0:02:52.880 just got knocked down a peg, right, Like, yeah, he's 0:02:52.919 --> 0:02:56.320 so crazy. I don't have it as bad as losing 0:02:56.360 --> 0:02:58.919 a bathroom, although I've known people who have like taken 0:02:58.960 --> 0:03:01.200 a shower that they don't use and kind of piled 0:03:01.200 --> 0:03:04.320 some stuff in there for a while. But my utility 0:03:04.360 --> 0:03:08.440 sink is just full of clean dishes that just needed 0:03:08.440 --> 0:03:11.160 somewhere to go, and now it's like, no sink. 0:03:11.680 --> 0:03:15.880 Get with it, my god, unbelievable. Congratulations to high led Mark. 0:03:16.000 --> 0:03:19.280 You are our winner for rate my blank last week. 0:03:19.560 --> 0:03:23.040 Rate my Mess, That's what it was. And rate my blank, 0:03:23.080 --> 0:03:24.840 if you don't know, is our distraction for the week. 0:03:24.840 --> 0:03:26.760 I've got a million things going on, we got drama, 0:03:26.880 --> 0:03:29.480 we got all sorts of stuff. There'll be fights, they'll 0:03:29.520 --> 0:03:31.800 be all kinds of things. But the rate my blank 0:03:31.880 --> 0:03:35.200 is a consistent distraction to keep us kind of isolated 0:03:35.200 --> 0:03:37.480 from all of this. Stuff and then having a little 0:03:37.480 --> 0:03:39.160 bit of fun along the way. So the Rate my 0:03:39.280 --> 0:03:42.520 Blank entering for this week, Cela, and this one is 0:03:42.520 --> 0:03:44.400 going to require us to have a lot of focus, 0:03:44.960 --> 0:03:50.240 to be absolutely cool under pressure, and to not laugh 0:03:50.520 --> 0:03:53.280 as much as possible, because we're going to do rate 0:03:53.440 --> 0:03:57.000 my Dad joke this week, and you send your audio 0:03:57.080 --> 0:04:02.760 dispatch of your of your absolutely knock them dead cheesiest 0:04:03.280 --> 0:04:08.000 Dad popsicle stick type jokes and if you make us laugh, 0:04:08.440 --> 0:04:11.120 you are in the running for the prize this week. 0:04:11.320 --> 0:04:15.600 Here's the thing. If we are rating dad jokes, is 0:04:15.640 --> 0:04:18.279 there a point at which a dad joke fails to 0:04:18.320 --> 0:04:21.719 be dad and just is a joke, and that we 0:04:21.800 --> 0:04:23.440 have to disqualify you? 0:04:23.440 --> 0:04:23.520 No? 0:04:23.680 --> 0:04:25.800 I think yeah, I think you're right. I think it 0:04:25.839 --> 0:04:28.039 can't be like too great of a joke. There has 0:04:28.120 --> 0:04:29.880 to be a cheeseball factor to. 0:04:29.839 --> 0:04:31.560 It, right. And also I don't think it can't be 0:04:31.600 --> 0:04:33.960 too long. No, it has to be short. 0:04:34.000 --> 0:04:36.800 It's got to be fast, short, funny, and it has 0:04:36.839 --> 0:04:39.360 to make us laugh or you're not in consideration. That's 0:04:39.400 --> 0:04:42.360 our rate my Blank for this week. Rate my Dad joke. 0:04:42.760 --> 0:04:45.520 Good luck, everybody. Send your submissions in over at the 0:04:45.520 --> 0:04:47.680 News junkie dot Com or the news Junkie app. Let's 0:04:47.680 --> 0:04:49.640 get started. Now, let's put our ears of the ground, 0:04:49.640 --> 0:04:52.120 our fingers on the pulse liste. What's happening to this great, big, 0:04:52.160 --> 0:04:54.520 wide world of ours? Why is this a bad idea? 0:04:55.320 --> 0:04:57.880 I just I mean, it's a it's like a bad 0:04:58.560 --> 0:05:00.520 OMEN to start things off for the week. 0:05:00.839 --> 0:05:03.640 Oh God, I'm just gonna spider curse. Now you have 0:05:03.720 --> 0:05:05.760 not watched this, right, No, I've still not seen it. 0:05:05.760 --> 0:05:07.000 I don't know how I ignored it. 0:05:07.760 --> 0:05:11.280 So the backstory on this is there's a brand new 0:05:11.960 --> 0:05:13.880 women's pro baseball league. 0:05:14.360 --> 0:05:15.040 Awesome. 0:05:15.440 --> 0:05:17.680 And now there used to be a women's pro league 0:05:17.720 --> 0:05:21.000 back in like the forties or fifties. 0:05:20.560 --> 0:05:23.920 A league of their own right, maybe that one Hanks 0:05:24.000 --> 0:05:26.600 was a coach in that league recollection. 0:05:26.240 --> 0:05:31.919 Correct, But it stopped and they're bringing back women's professional baseball. 0:05:32.400 --> 0:05:36.240 And this was the very first game, and before the 0:05:36.360 --> 0:05:39.039 very first game, this is how it started. This is 0:05:39.080 --> 0:05:42.680 how the Women's professional Baseball League started. And I want 0:05:42.720 --> 0:05:45.279 you to watch this and see if you think it 0:05:45.360 --> 0:05:49.800 is a good or negative OMEN for their organization and 0:05:49.839 --> 0:05:50.960 for their bad. 0:05:50.839 --> 0:05:51.400 Could it be? 0:05:51.640 --> 0:06:01.920 Let's see how it goes? You see, I underestimated, was 0:06:01.960 --> 0:06:13.479 so froun. Why did no one? Did no one tell 0:06:13.520 --> 0:06:16.040 these people that they are not good at singing? 0:06:16.080 --> 0:06:16.880 Did no one? 0:06:17.400 --> 0:06:23.679 Here's the thing, I think, separately they are decent at singing. 0:06:23.720 --> 0:06:28.320 Although Martha Reeves, who is the black woman on who 0:06:28.440 --> 0:06:32.240 is three women, three women singing, and then Martha Reeves 0:06:32.279 --> 0:06:35.279 is by herself, and then these other two women are 0:06:35.640 --> 0:06:39.560 kind of together, but they're weirdly separated on the field 0:06:39.720 --> 0:06:42.839 by a matter of a handful of feet, right, uh huh. 0:06:42.920 --> 0:06:47.200 Martha Reeves was like, I don't know if you would 0:06:47.200 --> 0:06:49.800 call her a motown singer. She was an old school singer, 0:06:50.400 --> 0:06:53.200 best known for hits like heat Wave and Dancing in 0:06:53.240 --> 0:06:57.240 the Streets Are Good. Martha and the Vandellas were inducted 0:06:57.240 --> 0:06:59.400 into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in nineteen 0:06:59.440 --> 0:07:04.120 ninety five. She is a name in the music industry. 0:07:04.720 --> 0:07:07.640 Martha's also quite a bit older than she was when 0:07:07.640 --> 0:07:08.480 she was doing all this. 0:07:08.760 --> 0:07:12.400 I mean, she's not old enough to trust sound like that, 0:07:18.600 --> 0:07:22.520 all the wrack in other people's faces. 0:07:21.560 --> 0:07:24.119 Why we're so good? 0:07:25.680 --> 0:07:29.680 My patriotism is plumbing and the rock? 0:07:31.880 --> 0:07:34.720 Oh god, I can't is this real? 0:07:35.200 --> 0:07:37.280 Did they maybe stunt this up because they were like, 0:07:37.280 --> 0:07:38.960 nobody's gonna be talking about women's baseball. 0:07:39.040 --> 0:07:42.600 There are a handful of comments, and I listed my 0:07:42.640 --> 0:07:45.080 favorite ones, but there were there were a bunch of 0:07:45.080 --> 0:07:49.480 people who thought, could this possibly be a way to 0:07:49.640 --> 0:07:53.480 have made the inaugural game of women's pro baseball go viral? 0:07:53.560 --> 0:07:56.440 If this was on pro and if listen, that's the 0:07:56.720 --> 0:08:00.920 that's the conspiracy theory that I have not even for 0:08:00.960 --> 0:08:05.760 a second entertainment only because if you if it came 0:08:05.800 --> 0:08:09.520 out that you were trying of a stunt, a viral 0:08:09.640 --> 0:08:13.200 stunt to get attention for your league, and that stunt 0:08:13.280 --> 0:08:16.680 was to desecrate the national anthem, that is not a 0:08:16.720 --> 0:08:17.520 good look on you. 0:08:17.960 --> 0:08:20.360 CFL can't on Twitch says she would have sounded better 0:08:20.400 --> 0:08:21.360 if she sang alone. 0:08:21.520 --> 0:08:22.280 I disagree. 0:08:22.800 --> 0:08:33.319 Was first she is singing alone anymore? Who asked for this? 0:08:33.720 --> 0:08:40.680 Sty A lot of attention paid to that one player? 0:08:46.320 --> 0:08:53.080 Oh god, shut it down, the land on the and 0:08:53.240 --> 0:09:00.120 the whole. Yeah. I think I think they stunted this. 0:09:00.320 --> 0:09:04.439 There's no way, why, no, why would you do that? 0:09:04.880 --> 0:09:08.120 Because they have ears right like you just did such 0:09:08.160 --> 0:09:11.680 an injustice to these women that are playing professional baseball. 0:09:11.720 --> 0:09:14.480 For some reason, I have no idea why they launched 0:09:14.480 --> 0:09:16.480 this league or if there was really a desire for this. 0:09:16.559 --> 0:09:18.200 It looks like there's at least a handful of people 0:09:18.200 --> 0:09:21.160 in the stands, but you may have just driven them away, 0:09:21.840 --> 0:09:25.880 or just driven American citizens away as people saying please stop, 0:09:26.000 --> 0:09:30.480 please stop. Good guy, what are you guys doing insecure? Walriss, 0:09:30.480 --> 0:09:33.400 who knows about audio, goes it's just missing some lush reverb. 0:09:33.520 --> 0:09:36.160 I could have made it sound good, my friend. I'm 0:09:36.160 --> 0:09:38.680 sure you are very talented. You could not have made 0:09:38.679 --> 0:09:39.480 that sound good. 0:09:40.360 --> 0:09:40.880 Missing. 0:09:40.920 --> 0:09:44.599 That's definitely missing auto tune because it seemed to me 0:09:44.760 --> 0:09:47.920 that Martha Reeves and her two backup singers were in 0:09:48.400 --> 0:09:51.720 different keys for much of the. 0:09:54.120 --> 0:09:57.360 Different keys. My god, there was Oh that was bad. 0:09:57.480 --> 0:10:00.280 I'm glad that I didn't listen over the weekend so 0:10:00.280 --> 0:10:02.120 so I could have just kept it fresh. 0:10:02.960 --> 0:10:07.480 Now I kind of listed my favorites because there was 0:10:07.520 --> 0:10:09.600 there was a lot of good content in the comment. 0:10:10.120 --> 0:10:12.319 What they say over there reminds me of the Cowardly 0:10:12.400 --> 0:10:14.320 Lion and the Wizard of Oz, especially at the end 0:10:14.720 --> 0:10:18.520 because of the vibrato. I admire her ability to pick 0:10:18.559 --> 0:10:21.720 a key and just ignore it. There is no law 0:10:21.760 --> 0:10:24.800 that says you have to applaud after the national anthem? 0:10:24.920 --> 0:10:26.360 True somebody called it? 0:10:26.400 --> 0:10:28.000 And I was like, how have we made it through 0:10:28.040 --> 0:10:30.720 so many bad national anthems and not heard the star 0:10:30.800 --> 0:10:31.640 mangled banner? 0:10:31.880 --> 0:10:33.840 Oh nice? Everyone else? 0:10:33.960 --> 0:10:36.320 Roseanne and an apology after this, saw the same thing 0:10:36.400 --> 0:10:40.800 about Fergie. Even the flag was cringing, and I know 0:10:40.880 --> 0:10:43.560 she's trying her best, but can she try someone else's best? 0:10:46.160 --> 0:10:47.160 That was rough. 0:10:47.679 --> 0:10:49.720 Any ladies out there who picked up big on the 0:10:49.760 --> 0:10:52.920 new Women's Baseball League, let us know if there's actually 0:10:53.000 --> 0:10:54.600 some sort of interest in this or if this. 0:10:54.559 --> 0:10:56.600 Turned you off to And then I was a little 0:10:56.640 --> 0:10:58.840 bored yesterday and it was just like kind of hanging 0:10:58.840 --> 0:11:00.680 around the house, was just me and the and I 0:11:00.760 --> 0:11:04.120 watched this and then I was like, I'm reading through 0:11:04.160 --> 0:11:07.280 the comments, and there was one guy that was like, 0:11:07.720 --> 0:11:11.520 come on, guys, we've all seen worse. We're like from whom, Yeah, 0:11:11.559 --> 0:11:15.679 well you did worse if you're telling me that Fergie 0:11:15.800 --> 0:11:19.160 was worse than that. I went back and watched Fergi's 0:11:19.240 --> 0:11:21.160 yesterday and I was like, I don't I don't know 0:11:21.200 --> 0:11:23.120 what I would have said the first time, or maybe 0:11:23.160 --> 0:11:26.520 if I have heard Fergie's before and made derogatory comments. 0:11:26.559 --> 0:11:28.199 But I watched Fergus I was like, that wasn't bad 0:11:28.200 --> 0:11:30.880 at all. That wasn't that better than Bongo guys. Remember 0:11:30.880 --> 0:11:33.520 Bongo guys national anthem. Somebody mentioned that in one of 0:11:33.520 --> 0:11:36.840 the emails they sent you those guys. You mean, look 0:11:36.880 --> 0:11:39.520 look up Bongo national Anthem real quick to refresh your 0:11:39.559 --> 0:11:42.040 memory and and you'll you'll. 0:11:41.880 --> 0:11:43.800 See what I'm talking about. But that that was uh, 0:11:44.559 --> 0:11:47.480 I remember what you're talking about. Mama Greaser says, I 0:11:47.520 --> 0:11:50.000 loved it. I'm so excited for this league. That makes 0:11:50.040 --> 0:11:52.000 one of you, all right, that puts one on the 0:11:52.040 --> 0:11:53.679 board we already have. 0:11:55.679 --> 0:11:57.880 She saying she loved the national anthem, or she loved 0:11:57.880 --> 0:12:00.920 the game because the game I'm sure was excited. You know, 0:12:01.000 --> 0:12:03.760 there was a there was a home run that was scored. 0:12:03.760 --> 0:12:07.199 I saw Fritz reposted the video of the very first 0:12:07.600 --> 0:12:13.320 ever home run in the Women's Professional Baseball League at 0:12:13.320 --> 0:12:17.960 this game, and the comment section was like, could this 0:12:18.280 --> 0:12:23.120 female person that was, you know, like a not announcer. 0:12:23.200 --> 0:12:26.280 I guess the radio announcer whoever's making the call on 0:12:26.480 --> 0:12:29.719 ESPN sound any less excited. 0:12:29.320 --> 0:12:31.520 About this home run. We're gonna need you to pep 0:12:31.559 --> 0:12:33.080 it up a little bit. What happened? 0:12:33.120 --> 0:12:36.760 Did nobody bring their a game to the women's professional 0:12:36.840 --> 0:12:38.080 Baseball League? 0:12:38.520 --> 0:12:39.320 Hit the home run? 0:12:39.400 --> 0:12:39.640 Did? 0:12:40.280 --> 0:12:44.880 Yeah? The one lady, the one player that was. 0:12:45.360 --> 0:12:47.840 They were zooming in on her during the national anthem 0:12:48.120 --> 0:12:50.240 and there was a particularly big f up in it, 0:12:50.280 --> 0:12:53.199 and she just kind of sucked her face in to 0:12:53.679 --> 0:12:57.240 like be void of any sort of of emotion. 0:12:57.679 --> 0:12:58.600 She held it in. 0:12:58.679 --> 0:13:02.360 Good Mama, Greaser says, I love the game, not the anthem. 0:13:02.440 --> 0:13:05.080 She was not a fan of the anthem, but the game. Yes, 0:13:05.160 --> 0:13:06.920 she did. Well, we'll see if it works out for HI. 0:13:07.000 --> 0:13:09.400 Might be a smart business move. Maybe nobody watches it all. 0:13:09.440 --> 0:13:10.439 We shall see. 0:13:11.559 --> 0:13:14.000 Let's sake, go to the box office this weekend. Mine, 0:13:14.080 --> 0:13:19.560 was it a big one? Spider Man web slung his way. 0:13:20.200 --> 0:13:26.040 Into your hearts, as they say, with an absolutely massive 0:13:26.360 --> 0:13:27.680 box office win. 0:13:28.040 --> 0:13:31.640 He made a short wealth, oh that's true. Yeah, caught 0:13:31.640 --> 0:13:34.319 a lot of cash in his web, just stop. 0:13:34.440 --> 0:13:37.360 Just short of the all time record at the box 0:13:37.400 --> 0:13:41.560 office set by Avengers Endgame spider Man Brand New Day 0:13:42.320 --> 0:13:47.680 brought in three hundred and fifty five million dollars, right, 0:13:47.920 --> 0:13:50.080 which is pretty insane to even consider. 0:13:50.200 --> 0:13:51.640 It was absolutely massive. 0:13:51.920 --> 0:13:56.080 It was because of that the biggest collective box office 0:13:56.120 --> 0:13:57.040 weekend in history. 0:13:57.080 --> 0:13:58.920 Why because Spider Man. 0:13:58.760 --> 0:14:01.240 Brand New Day was out of the world and the 0:14:01.400 --> 0:14:04.360 Odyssey was still bringing in a lot of money. So 0:14:04.400 --> 0:14:07.120 the box office brought in four hundred and thirty million 0:14:07.320 --> 0:14:10.920 dollars in ticket sales this weekend, thus making it the 0:14:11.040 --> 0:14:14.280 most Well, I mean, I'd like this to go back, 0:14:14.320 --> 0:14:16.200 by the way, I'd like this to go back to 0:14:16.320 --> 0:14:18.320 all of you people out there that were like, the 0:14:18.400 --> 0:14:20.880 movie theaters are dead, No one's ever going to go 0:14:20.920 --> 0:14:21.960 back to movie theaters. 0:14:22.040 --> 0:14:23.400 COVID changed everything. 0:14:23.400 --> 0:14:23.520 Now. 0:14:23.680 --> 0:14:25.960 I said that. No I didn't. I said. 0:14:26.200 --> 0:14:28.880 I said, there's always going to be an appetite. I 0:14:28.960 --> 0:14:31.920 love going to the movies. I love going to the movies. 0:14:31.960 --> 0:14:33.840 There's always going to be an appetite for people who 0:14:33.840 --> 0:14:35.880 want to go and sit in the theaters. And it's 0:14:35.880 --> 0:14:39.760 a social experience, sometimes good, sometimes bad, but it's a 0:14:39.800 --> 0:14:42.920 social experience. This bigger and better than your screen on 0:14:42.960 --> 0:14:46.400 your television, and people love it. People enjoy this. Still 0:14:46.480 --> 0:14:49.479 as long as there's good movies. The problem is Hollywood 0:14:49.960 --> 0:14:54.760 has pumped out so much absolute garbage that nobody wanted 0:14:54.800 --> 0:14:55.200 to see it. 0:14:55.120 --> 0:14:56.480 And then they were like nobody wants to go to 0:14:56.520 --> 0:14:59.680 the movies anymore. Check the tape. Sean said it. 0:14:59.760 --> 0:15:03.560 Go go ahead, pull me, pull me, saying that somewhere, 0:15:03.720 --> 0:15:05.400 and I'll say, you are right. 0:15:05.640 --> 0:15:08.160 But I love the movies. I go to movies. 0:15:08.200 --> 0:15:15.080 I'm you know, the one speech dispatch. Possibly, but I 0:15:15.720 --> 0:15:18.320 think that this is proof that people still will pay 0:15:18.560 --> 0:15:20.880 for tickets to go see some of these movies if 0:15:20.880 --> 0:15:24.560 they're if they think that what's been happening with the 0:15:24.600 --> 0:15:27.200 ideas behind the movie and the production of the movie 0:15:27.320 --> 0:15:30.400 is something worthy of their money. And Spider Man brand 0:15:30.400 --> 0:15:33.960 new Dad three hundred and sixty million dollars officially, very 0:15:34.040 --> 0:15:37.320 very big. Tom Holland, just quit, buddy, just quit. 0:15:37.360 --> 0:15:38.920 What are you gonna do? I mean, you know what I mean? 0:15:39.040 --> 0:15:42.160 Like The Odyssey is number two, Your Spider Man movie 0:15:42.280 --> 0:15:46.200 is number one? What what is Zenda in both of 0:15:46.240 --> 0:15:47.920 them too? Or is it just Tom Holland? 0:15:48.080 --> 0:15:49.520 I think Zandias in both. 0:15:49.880 --> 0:15:52.960 And the Punisher guy the Punisher guys. And are we 0:15:53.080 --> 0:15:53.720 sayd that wrong? 0:15:53.760 --> 0:15:55.880 I think that somebody was coming after us last week 0:15:55.960 --> 0:15:58.400 when it was in DAYA. Maybe, Oh God, who cares 0:15:59.680 --> 0:16:04.520 say name? Perfect pronunciation of Zandia's name? Or is Endio 0:16:04.640 --> 0:16:06.240 or whatever. I think I said it the same way 0:16:06.280 --> 0:16:09.000 to let you get one Zendia, Thank you Zendia. 0:16:09.800 --> 0:16:12.080 But number one and number two at the box office 0:16:12.160 --> 0:16:14.520 with spider Man, Brand New Day and The Odyssey Toy 0:16:14.560 --> 0:16:18.000 Story five and at number three Minions and Monsters Mowana 0:16:18.000 --> 0:16:21.400 around and got the top five. Obsession finally knocked out 0:16:22.080 --> 0:16:26.040 of the top ten. Finally after twelve weeks, the Little 0:16:26.080 --> 0:16:28.880 Movie that Could gets knocked out. Now I've talked a 0:16:28.920 --> 0:16:32.560 bit about how ridiculous some of the things that the 0:16:32.560 --> 0:16:35.000 theater have gotten. Now I have complained about this, complain 0:16:35.040 --> 0:16:37.120 about price saying at the theater and all this stuff. 0:16:37.520 --> 0:16:40.040 With a Spider Man movie blowing up this weekend. When 0:16:40.080 --> 0:16:42.120 we come back, not only will we get into some 0:16:42.200 --> 0:16:45.080 of your spicy emails to kick things off, not only 0:16:45.080 --> 0:16:47.360 will we get all set up for our friend Amy Kaufelt. 0:16:47.360 --> 0:16:49.560 We got another interview about an hour after that to 0:16:49.600 --> 0:16:53.000 talk about something very frightening. But when we come back, 0:16:54.080 --> 0:16:57.880 I've never seen anything like this as far as movie 0:16:57.920 --> 0:17:01.520 deals go. You've got to hear you're not gonna believe 0:17:01.960 --> 0:17:04.040 what this is about. But I'll explain it to you 0:17:04.119 --> 0:17:22.760 because that is coming up next on the News Junkie. 0:17:23.520 --> 0:17:25.919 You can email the show tips at the news Junkie 0:17:25.920 --> 0:17:28.879 dot com. Tips at the Newsjunkie dot com. We were 0:17:28.920 --> 0:17:30.919 talking about Spider Man being number one with a bullet 0:17:30.920 --> 0:17:35.080 at the box office, almost the biggest opening of all time. Honestly, beforehand, 0:17:35.119 --> 0:17:36.600 I didn't hear a ton of people talking about it, 0:17:36.600 --> 0:17:39.080 but people just I think they were ready. It's been 0:17:39.160 --> 0:17:42.480 long enough. And the movie, by the way, was good. 0:17:43.240 --> 0:17:46.439 It was good. Okay, if you didn't see Spider Man 0:17:46.480 --> 0:17:49.040 Branded it, we did go see it. We went and 0:17:49.119 --> 0:17:52.040 saw Spider Man Brand new day. I didn't know what 0:17:52.080 --> 0:17:55.080 to expect at all. It was grittier than I expected. 0:17:55.359 --> 0:17:59.439 The story was pretty decently written, and it was It 0:17:59.480 --> 0:18:02.640 was a good time. It was a fun, fun time 0:18:02.760 --> 0:18:05.120 to watch it, and I think that's what people were 0:18:05.119 --> 0:18:08.400 looking for. They're looking for these experiences at the box office. 0:18:08.600 --> 0:18:10.919 But I gotta tell you there was a couple of 0:18:10.960 --> 0:18:12.439 things I wanted to share with you on this. 0:18:12.880 --> 0:18:13.640 Here's one of them. 0:18:13.880 --> 0:18:17.240 They're starting to offer all of these different like movie 0:18:17.280 --> 0:18:21.480 theater experiences, and they just sound so crazy to me. 0:18:21.600 --> 0:18:23.960 Maybe this strikes you as a good deal or something, 0:18:24.680 --> 0:18:29.400 But here's an example. This says the Odyssey fifteen slash 0:18:29.440 --> 0:18:32.520 seventy milimeter. Does that mean it's like one of the 0:18:32.680 --> 0:18:36.399 choice IMAX screenings. There's not too many of them in 0:18:36.440 --> 0:18:37.639 the country. If that's what it is. 0:18:37.720 --> 0:18:41.080 Oh well, the seventy milimeter I think is different than IMAX. 0:18:41.640 --> 0:18:44.439 But I don't know what the fifteen part is. 0:18:44.760 --> 0:18:48.119 It says Odyssey fifteen, the Odyssey fifteen slash seventy milimeter 0:18:48.240 --> 0:18:49.119 runtime three hours. 0:18:49.160 --> 0:18:52.800 Okay, here's the deal they have. This is crazy to me. 0:18:53.600 --> 0:18:58.800 They offered the VIP priority Imax experience. All right, this 0:18:58.880 --> 0:19:02.280 is the movie theater the deal for you in twenty 0:19:02.320 --> 0:19:07.359 twenty six see the Odyssey like a true VIP. You 0:19:07.359 --> 0:19:09.960 can bring up to ten guests, all right, up to 0:19:10.000 --> 0:19:16.400 ten guests total for one thousand, five hundred dollars at 0:19:16.440 --> 0:19:20.680 these movie theaters where they are doing the Imax experience. 0:19:20.800 --> 0:19:21.520 Here's what you got. 0:19:21.520 --> 0:19:22.720 Tell me if you think this is a good deal, 0:19:22.760 --> 0:19:28.600 remember one thousand, five hundred dollars for you and nine 0:19:28.600 --> 0:19:29.399 of your best friends. 0:19:29.440 --> 0:19:31.040 And boy, they better be best friends. 0:19:31.600 --> 0:19:34.600 You get up to ten VIP tickets to the Odyssey. 0:19:35.280 --> 0:19:39.200 You get priority theater entry for the best available seating options. 0:19:39.600 --> 0:19:41.280 Oh I'm sorry, did you think you were getting the 0:19:41.280 --> 0:19:45.280 whole theater to yourself for fifteen hundred dollars. No, it's 0:19:45.359 --> 0:19:48.119 just like a Southwest Airlines flight. You get the board 0:19:48.160 --> 0:19:52.399 a little earlier and pick your choice spots in the 0:19:52.440 --> 0:19:53.080 movie theater. 0:19:53.520 --> 0:19:54.679 Let me tell you something. 0:19:54.880 --> 0:19:57.280 If I pay fifteen hundred dollars, go watch The Odyssey 0:19:57.320 --> 0:19:59.639 and Imax and somebody starts talking on their phone in 0:19:59.640 --> 0:20:03.920 the middle the movie, I'm going to shoot them. There 0:20:03.960 --> 0:20:07.240 will be a shooting in the middle of this grade 0:20:07.880 --> 0:20:15.680 of this movie. For fifteen hundred dollars. Uh. Yes, Priority 0:20:15.720 --> 0:20:19.560 theater Intry for the best available seating options, five reserved 0:20:19.760 --> 0:20:24.640 parking spaces, so you can get a great parking space, 0:20:25.520 --> 0:20:30.439 up to ten large popcorns with unlimited refills, up to 0:20:30.520 --> 0:20:34.600 ten large fountain drinks with unlimited refills, and up to 0:20:34.640 --> 0:20:39.480 ten custom Odyssey themed desserts crafted by a local culinary partner. 0:20:40.200 --> 0:20:46.440 That's what you get for one thousand, five hundred dollars. 0:20:46.600 --> 0:20:50.439 First of all, for fifteen hundred dollars, I better not 0:20:50.520 --> 0:20:53.400 get up to ten. I'm getting ten. I'm getting even 0:20:53.400 --> 0:20:55.640 if I bring eight people, we're getting two extra desserts, 0:20:55.640 --> 0:20:57.359 two extra popcorns. 0:20:57.359 --> 0:21:00.000 That miss me with taking it with ten things. 0:21:00.119 --> 0:21:00.480 Uh huh. 0:21:00.760 --> 0:21:01.000 Yeah. 0:21:01.119 --> 0:21:04.440 Second, I googled it and the fifteen slash seventy milimeters 0:21:04.560 --> 0:21:08.160 that is used for true IMAX presentations. I thought there 0:21:08.160 --> 0:21:10.280 was a seventy millimeter that is not IMAX. But I 0:21:10.920 --> 0:21:13.680 might be wrong on that because I do not dive 0:21:13.720 --> 0:21:19.480 into this like nerd land where I go out of 0:21:19.480 --> 0:21:22.040 my way to see movies presented in a certain way. 0:21:22.440 --> 0:21:27.160 The fifteen is because it's fifteen sprocket holes wide in 0:21:27.280 --> 0:21:30.879 the film. Yeah, okay, you know, because the time is bigger, 0:21:31.000 --> 0:21:33.000 right right, But you know how it has holes on 0:21:33.040 --> 0:21:33.280 the end. 0:21:33.359 --> 0:21:35.679 Yeah, yeah, yeah, there's fifteen of them to get the 0:21:35.680 --> 0:21:36.160 one frame. 0:21:36.200 --> 0:21:38.440 Well, the little holes on the edge of like film 0:21:38.480 --> 0:21:40.800 if you see old like negatives or whatever. 0:21:41.040 --> 0:21:43.679 So there's fifteen in there. Oh that's what that means. 0:21:43.840 --> 0:21:47.080 Yeah, Well, you get you get ten VIP tickets, which 0:21:47.119 --> 0:21:49.280 just means you get to pick your seats before everybody else. 0:21:49.520 --> 0:21:53.320 You get five parking spaces, you get ten popcorns, ten 0:21:53.359 --> 0:21:57.560 fountain drinks, and ten desserts. So as fifteen hundred dollars, 0:21:57.640 --> 0:22:00.359 it's one hundred and fifty dollars a person to go 0:22:00.400 --> 0:22:01.320 to see a movie. 0:22:01.520 --> 0:22:03.679 As one person, you get to go one hundred and 0:22:03.680 --> 0:22:08.600 fifty dollars for a dream ticket to the movie early 0:22:08.680 --> 0:22:14.800 access off a parking spot. Yes, popcorn, soda, and a 0:22:14.800 --> 0:22:17.880 dessert for one hundred and fifty bucks. Isn't that that's 0:22:18.000 --> 0:22:22.639 crazy to me? Like that is crazy to me to 0:22:22.760 --> 0:22:26.639 be that expensive. But I guess just a regular IMAX 0:22:26.720 --> 0:22:28.000 true IMAX. 0:22:27.560 --> 0:22:29.639 Ticket is pretty expensive. You guys can tell me how 0:22:29.680 --> 0:22:32.040 much it is. I've never actually been to one of 0:22:32.040 --> 0:22:36.240 the true IMAX theaters where there's only so many of them, 0:22:36.800 --> 0:22:37.480 but would. 0:22:37.320 --> 0:22:37.880 You do that? 0:22:38.200 --> 0:22:40.320 They're in a movie on the planet that I would 0:22:40.359 --> 0:22:44.000 pay fifteen hundred dollars. For fifteen hundred dollars, you can 0:22:44.040 --> 0:22:47.800 literally start to build your own home theater for that 0:22:47.960 --> 0:22:48.600 much money. 0:22:49.200 --> 0:22:51.160 Maybe not the one you dream of, but like. 0:22:51.160 --> 0:22:54.880 You could get a seventy eighty inch flat screen at Costco. 0:22:55.359 --> 0:22:57.919 You could get a surround sound system with some cube 0:22:57.960 --> 0:23:00.359 speakers and a center speaker at a sub well for 0:23:00.760 --> 0:23:03.439 you could probably get that together for fifteen hundred bucks 0:23:04.080 --> 0:23:06.760 instead of watching The Odyssey one time and getting some 0:23:06.840 --> 0:23:10.280 popcorn in a dessert or something. But maybe it's this good. 0:23:10.400 --> 0:23:12.800 Let us know, would you do that or do you 0:23:12.800 --> 0:23:17.040 think that's a ripoff. Send your dispatches over at thenewsjunkie 0:23:17.200 --> 0:23:22.000 dot com. Absolutely crazy. It leaked again, just like the 0:23:22.040 --> 0:23:25.679 Odyssey leaked. Spider Man Brand New Day leaked out. Somebody 0:23:25.720 --> 0:23:29.120 posted it on x dot com and I was out 0:23:29.160 --> 0:23:32.040 for a couple of hours, reaching millions of accounts before 0:23:32.080 --> 0:23:35.479 somebody took that down. Then I heard a little tidbit 0:23:35.520 --> 0:23:37.159 about Spider Man worth working in. 0:23:37.880 --> 0:23:39.640 I did not know this. It's kind of interesting. 0:23:40.359 --> 0:23:44.480 Spider Man Brand New Day will open in Imax theaters 0:23:44.600 --> 0:23:48.000 on August sixth, so you're asking yourself, hold on, Spider 0:23:48.040 --> 0:23:51.000 Man's not in the Imax theaters yet. The record breaking 0:23:51.040 --> 0:23:54.399 superhero movie did not open in Imax originally because of 0:23:54.440 --> 0:23:58.280 The Odyssey's exclusive three week run in Imax theaters in 0:23:58.440 --> 0:24:01.760 crowd those three weeks are over, Imax is able to 0:24:01.800 --> 0:24:05.840 schedule Spider Man Brand New Day showtimes. The Odyssey will 0:24:05.880 --> 0:24:08.440 retain most of the Imax screens, with Spider Man Brand 0:24:08.440 --> 0:24:12.640 New Day sharing the Imax Global network across select digital locations, 0:24:13.040 --> 0:24:15.560 so the film ones are going to stay with the 0:24:15.560 --> 0:24:19.439 Odyssey and all forty one of the company's seventy millimeter 0:24:19.560 --> 0:24:21.120 film locations around the world. 0:24:21.480 --> 0:24:22.640 Only in the whole world. 0:24:22.640 --> 0:24:24.480 There's only forty one of them. There's only forty one 0:24:24.520 --> 0:24:27.879 of these projectors. I guess seventy millimeter film locations in 0:24:27.880 --> 0:24:30.440 the world. They'll still have the Odyssey, but the digital 0:24:30.440 --> 0:24:33.720 ones will start to show Spider Man and Imax. And 0:24:33.760 --> 0:24:36.560 that's the crazy deal that the Odyssey got, Like they 0:24:36.600 --> 0:24:39.879 made that much money. Spider Man probably would have broken 0:24:39.960 --> 0:24:42.679 the all time record over Avengers Endgame if it was 0:24:42.720 --> 0:24:45.760 available in Imax. I think there's no doubt about that. 0:24:45.880 --> 0:24:49.919 But it wasn't and they had a deal with the Odyssey. Folks, 0:24:49.960 --> 0:24:52.959 I guess to knock this out. Let us know what 0:24:53.000 --> 0:24:54.719 you think about this. Set us a dispatch over at 0:24:54.720 --> 0:24:58.320 the Newsjunkie dot com or email the show tips at 0:24:58.359 --> 0:25:00.400 the Newsjunkie dot com. 0:25:00.480 --> 0:25:01.920 All right, let's see what we got here. 0:25:02.000 --> 0:25:05.520 We're gonna get to you your your contributions to the show. 0:25:05.680 --> 0:25:07.680 You're asking about what the Imax costs. 0:25:07.960 --> 0:25:10.359 Yeah, yeah, for one ticket, just like a not the 0:25:10.440 --> 0:25:12.040 digital one, the legit Imax. 0:25:12.520 --> 0:25:16.280 Oh, I think this is a legit one. But Pisenberg 0:25:16.359 --> 0:25:21.040 said they saw Odyssey's Saturday Night seventy millimeters Imax, having 0:25:21.040 --> 0:25:22.960 never really seen that. I'm at seventy millimeters. Sounds like 0:25:22.960 --> 0:25:24.960 it's not digital. Yeah, I think that's the real one, 0:25:26.119 --> 0:25:28.800 but I don't know what was different about it, aside 0:25:28.800 --> 0:25:33.280 the screen from the screen being ginormous. Wasn't worth seventy 0:25:33.320 --> 0:25:34.760 five dollars for both of our tickets? 0:25:34.760 --> 0:25:34.960 Oh? 0:25:35.160 --> 0:25:36.320 Okay for two for two? 0:25:36.440 --> 0:25:39.240 Seventy five for two, Okay, seventy five for two is 0:25:39.280 --> 0:25:41.960 still pretty pricey. Yeah, people are saying about thirty five 0:25:42.040 --> 0:25:46.000 dollars or so, but there are people who pay it. 0:25:46.080 --> 0:25:48.840 The majority of the first couple of days in money 0:25:48.840 --> 0:25:52.800 for the Odyssey was actually from Imax theaters, the digital 0:25:52.840 --> 0:25:55.200 ones included obviously until I. 0:25:55.160 --> 0:25:59.080 Got that record. Uh yeah, you set in these records. 0:26:00.200 --> 0:26:00.800 So we'll see. 0:26:00.840 --> 0:26:03.280 We'll see if that continues, and we'll see what changes 0:26:03.320 --> 0:26:06.199 with the theater switching things up here.

I'm listening to Friday's podcast 0:28:25.520 --> 0:28:28.160 this morning, and I could completely commiserate with Sea Lane and. 0:28:28.119 --> 0:28:32.560 His bruise ego from his bruce knees. He fell on Thursday. 0:28:32.600 --> 0:28:34.880 For the record, for those who don't know, a year ago, 0:28:35.000 --> 0:28:37.000 is taking my trash out to the curb, pushing it 0:28:37.040 --> 0:28:39.960 in front of me. I somehow stumbled, causing the trash 0:28:40.000 --> 0:28:42.040 can to roll out and fall and the lid was 0:28:42.040 --> 0:28:44.280 already open and it was laid on the ground and 0:28:44.360 --> 0:28:46.760 I stepped on it. Stepping on the lid while it 0:28:46.800 --> 0:28:50.200 was still rolling made me fall and I dislocated my shoulders. 0:28:50.320 --> 0:28:53.360 She oh no, it popped, and. 0:28:53.360 --> 0:28:55.720 Immediately the pain was so severe like I had seen 0:28:55.720 --> 0:28:57.080 in the movies, I knew I had to go to 0:28:57.120 --> 0:29:00.400 the er. My boyfriend took me there, and having repeat 0:29:00.400 --> 0:29:03.680 the story over and over you again was humiliating. The 0:29:03.760 --> 0:29:05.600 worst part was that they kept looking at him like 0:29:05.680 --> 0:29:07.880 he did it and I was making up this elaborate 0:29:07.880 --> 0:29:08.720 story to cover. 0:29:08.640 --> 0:29:09.440 Up his abuse. 0:29:09.600 --> 0:29:13.160 Oh no, They thought she had been beaten by her 0:29:13.240 --> 0:29:16.080 partner and that she was saying like, oh no, I 0:29:16.160 --> 0:29:19.480 slipped on the trash can lid, but she really did. Nope, 0:29:19.520 --> 0:29:21.560 I'm just a klutz and I tripped over my trash 0:29:21.560 --> 0:29:24.120 can and dislocated my shoulders. So see that it could 0:29:24.120 --> 0:29:28.520 have been worse. Wiggle wiggle literally pop pop, says Melanie. 0:29:28.800 --> 0:29:29.360 Yeah over. 0:29:29.760 --> 0:29:32.720 I was like kind of relieved that at least I 0:29:32.760 --> 0:29:37.040 had already taken out the recycling and like didn't go 0:29:37.160 --> 0:29:39.920 down with the bin. And then I'm having to like 0:29:40.040 --> 0:29:42.719 scurry around in the dark and try to pick up 0:29:42.720 --> 0:29:45.320 all the trash and it was like spilling out. 0:29:45.400 --> 0:29:47.160 That would have been notts of fun. 0:29:47.480 --> 0:29:48.920 None of that was as bad as what I saw 0:29:48.960 --> 0:29:50.800 over the weekend where a woman, like a damn Looney 0:29:50.880 --> 0:29:52.480 Tunes character stepped on a rake. 0:29:52.680 --> 0:29:53.640 Did you see that, lady? 0:29:53.720 --> 0:29:56.640 No, Oh my god, I don't know if I don't 0:29:56.680 --> 0:29:58.560 even know if I can show it. But there was 0:29:58.600 --> 0:30:01.560 a woman who, just like a a character in a cartoon, 0:30:02.000 --> 0:30:04.680 she stepped on a rake and had to go to 0:30:04.680 --> 0:30:08.760 the hospital because the rake straight up like went through 0:30:08.840 --> 0:30:12.560 her foot. I'm not sure why this comes up when 0:30:13.400 --> 0:30:14.920 that's the woman, but this is. 0:30:14.880 --> 0:30:18.760 Not the woman who stepped on the I can tell. 0:30:19.080 --> 0:30:20.880 And you know what, I'm gonna stop scrolling right there 0:30:20.880 --> 0:30:22.480 because I don't know what other things are gonna pop 0:30:22.520 --> 0:30:24.800 up when I'm looking for rake, lady. But just trust 0:30:24.800 --> 0:30:26.720 me that happened this weekend. 0:30:27.320 --> 0:30:30.200 Search. I didn't search anything to give me that. 0:30:30.320 --> 0:30:34.360 For God's sake, when we come back say goodbye to radio, 0:30:34.960 --> 0:30:39.160 I'll explain just an absolutely unbelievable story you gotta hear. 0:30:39.440 --> 0:30:39.960 We'll get to that. 0:30:40.000 --> 0:30:41.880 We'll get to more of your feedback, more your rate, 0:30:41.960 --> 0:30:44.440 my blank dad joke addition, and a whole lot more 0:30:44.440 --> 0:31:02.400 coming up next on the news junk. Ye, we got 0:31:02.480 --> 0:31:04.880 Amy Kaufel coming up in the top of the hour. 0:31:04.880 --> 0:31:07.880 It's less than fifteen minutes away. After that, in the 0:31:08.320 --> 0:31:11.200 top of the next hour, we've got an expert, Like 0:31:11.240 --> 0:31:13.560 I mean, this woman is probably too smart to be 0:31:13.600 --> 0:31:16.360 on this show, but she's an expert at this thing. 0:31:16.840 --> 0:31:19.600 Because a lot of stories are suggesting that iron is 0:31:19.680 --> 0:31:23.000 hacking our water supply in the United States of America, 0:31:23.640 --> 0:31:25.520 and we're just a bunch of dummies over here. 0:31:25.560 --> 0:31:27.680 I want to know what does that mean? How is 0:31:27.720 --> 0:31:28.240 this done? 0:31:28.360 --> 0:31:31.680 Is it actually sophisticated? Is there any danger for everybody? 0:31:31.920 --> 0:31:34.920 What other things could hackers hack? Like that would affect 0:31:34.960 --> 0:31:37.960 you in your real life, not on the internet. So 0:31:38.600 --> 0:31:40.720 that will be at the top of the next hour. 0:31:41.720 --> 0:31:44.280 But this weekend there was a couple of stories that 0:31:44.320 --> 0:31:47.080 caught my attention about this industry. Many of you who 0:31:47.120 --> 0:31:51.160 listen to the show listen because you love radio and 0:31:51.240 --> 0:31:54.440 you love the format. You love broadcasting. And when I 0:31:54.520 --> 0:31:58.400 say that, I generally mean this kind of radio talk radio. 0:31:59.000 --> 0:32:01.600 Not many people like music radio in the same way 0:32:01.720 --> 0:32:03.959 you put up with music radio. You sit in your car, 0:32:04.160 --> 0:32:07.160 like I like the songs on this channel, but you 0:32:07.280 --> 0:32:10.680 barely have any allegiance to music radio. You don't care 0:32:10.760 --> 0:32:13.480 if you're getting your music from a radio station or 0:32:13.520 --> 0:32:17.000 for some app that has the best, you know, playlist 0:32:17.040 --> 0:32:21.200 that's perfectly created for you. You know, people don't care about that. 0:32:21.680 --> 0:32:24.840 These aren't those days any longer. But I ask you, really, 0:32:24.880 --> 0:32:28.200 do you think radio is going to die within the 0:32:28.200 --> 0:32:30.000 next ten years, because I think we're gonna see a 0:32:30.040 --> 0:32:31.360 lot more stories like this one. 0:32:31.400 --> 0:32:32.400 Let me bring this up here. 0:32:32.960 --> 0:32:40.400 A legendary station out in California was shut down over 0:32:40.400 --> 0:32:43.840 the weekend. And when I say shut down, I mean 0:32:44.240 --> 0:32:45.760 it wasn't shut down in the sense that they're not 0:32:45.800 --> 0:32:49.040 broadcasting anymore. It was shut down for all the employees. 0:32:49.640 --> 0:32:52.440 And here's one of the stories of this. It says, 0:32:52.600 --> 0:32:55.640 or about this, I should say, legendary California radio station 0:32:55.840 --> 0:33:00.400 KCAL ninety six point seven. For those of you don't know, 0:33:00.480 --> 0:33:03.480 radio stations start with the W east of the Mississippi 0:33:03.520 --> 0:33:06.239 and west of the Mississippi. You get a K in 0:33:06.280 --> 0:33:08.960 front of that station calls on. 0:33:09.520 --> 0:33:11.200 Really, it would have made more sense to put the 0:33:11.320 --> 0:33:13.120 W to the west. But you know who am I? 0:33:13.120 --> 0:33:15.280 I agree it would have been easier to remember, but 0:33:15.400 --> 0:33:17.520 you know how it goes. It's too late now. But 0:33:17.600 --> 0:33:22.000 this radio station in California, ninety six point seven rock station. 0:33:22.680 --> 0:33:25.280 It had been around for so long. This was a 0:33:25.360 --> 0:33:28.200 station that people grew up with their favorite bands. They 0:33:28.280 --> 0:33:32.280 learned about them on this station. And then after one 0:33:32.320 --> 0:33:34.920 of the shows on Friday or something, they said, we're 0:33:34.960 --> 0:33:37.720 firing every single one of the DJs on this station. 0:33:38.520 --> 0:33:42.160 And I said, well, get ready, because this is just 0:33:42.280 --> 0:33:45.800 the beginning of the grim Reaper coming through music radio. 0:33:46.360 --> 0:33:49.560 Music radio is going to be decimated. It will be first, 0:33:50.120 --> 0:33:52.920 and it is an easy call for these radio stations. 0:33:53.440 --> 0:33:55.600 I say this not to be rude to our brethren 0:33:55.640 --> 0:33:58.200 in music radio. I appreciate you. I know some of 0:33:58.240 --> 0:34:01.080 you are talented at what you do, but you are 0:34:01.120 --> 0:34:03.920 incredibly expendable. I just hate to say that, but is 0:34:04.000 --> 0:34:06.880 just the truth. It is the truth. When you look 0:34:06.920 --> 0:34:10.600 at these radio stations, they find you to be expendable. 0:34:11.120 --> 0:34:19.160 So this classic rock station fired everybody, morning show, middays, afternoons, nights, overnights, 0:34:19.320 --> 0:34:22.440 all of that stuff. When I first got into radio, 0:34:23.200 --> 0:34:24.759 I don't know if this was true for you. I 0:34:24.760 --> 0:34:25.920 think this might have been true for you. 0:34:26.000 --> 0:34:27.719 Toucy Lane. Possibly. 0:34:28.160 --> 0:34:32.360 When I first got into radio, there was somebody literally 0:34:32.640 --> 0:34:36.960 at the radio station twenty four to seven, not for me, No, no, 0:34:37.200 --> 0:34:38.800 there wasn't anybody like overnights. 0:34:38.800 --> 0:34:40.520 There wasn't anybody running the board at that time. 0:34:40.719 --> 0:34:44.439 M no, okay, So we would always have somebody because 0:34:44.440 --> 0:34:47.839 he had cart machines, and the cart machines weren't automated, 0:34:48.320 --> 0:34:51.800 and for commercials and stuff in the playing the CDEs 0:34:51.880 --> 0:34:54.000 and stuff, you would have to get your list for 0:34:54.080 --> 0:34:56.200 your shift. You would get all of the music that 0:34:56.200 --> 0:34:57.880 you were supposed to play, you would get all of 0:34:57.920 --> 0:35:00.120 the carts ready, you would stack them up, and you 0:35:00.120 --> 0:35:02.680 would start playing your music for your shift. And there 0:35:02.719 --> 0:35:06.200 was somebody in the morning's live all day long. There 0:35:06.280 --> 0:35:10.120 was somebody live behind the board, babysitting the board, making 0:35:10.120 --> 0:35:11.920 sure the music was going out to the people. 0:35:12.000 --> 0:35:13.480 Right. Not anymore. 0:35:14.040 --> 0:35:17.120 And shortly after I started in radio, they started by 0:35:17.280 --> 0:35:20.400 automating overnights, and then they just went on and on 0:35:20.520 --> 0:35:23.480 from there. And then they said at every part of 0:35:23.520 --> 0:35:25.719 the industry has done this. They said, we're going to 0:35:25.760 --> 0:35:28.960 take our best people and put them on many stations. 0:35:29.000 --> 0:35:30.839 We're gonna you know, you're going to be the rock 0:35:30.880 --> 0:35:34.160 guy for the Southeastern and all of these stations around here, 0:35:34.640 --> 0:35:37.200 and we're going to fire the other forty people that 0:35:37.280 --> 0:35:40.040 did this work. And now this is just a matter 0:35:40.080 --> 0:35:43.239 of time because for them it's cheaper. They've found in 0:35:43.280 --> 0:35:45.239 a lot of studies that they've done, believe it or not, 0:35:45.800 --> 0:35:48.600 that whether they have the DJs on introducing the music 0:35:48.719 --> 0:35:50.920 or if they have nothing and they're just playing music, 0:35:51.200 --> 0:35:53.600 it literally does not affect the ratings that much. 0:35:54.120 --> 0:35:55.280 They're not that many people. 0:35:55.080 --> 0:35:59.120 Were like, I only listen for Cobra Kai Joe in 0:35:59.160 --> 0:36:04.520 the afternoon. Right. So this station, legendary station in California, 0:36:04.520 --> 0:36:06.560 the first of many to do this, has pulled the 0:36:06.560 --> 0:36:09.080 plug on all of their DJs. Every single one of 0:36:09.120 --> 0:36:13.520 them has been laid off and they're just going DJ 0:36:13.719 --> 0:36:16.640 free from here on out. They said, k CAW has 0:36:16.760 --> 0:36:20.080 a long standing history in the Inland Empire. This next 0:36:20.160 --> 0:36:23.560 chapter builds on the station strong rock heritage. They've fired 0:36:23.600 --> 0:36:25.239 all the people that actually work there. I'm looking at 0:36:25.280 --> 0:36:28.040 some of the DJs that work there, and then when 0:36:28.080 --> 0:36:29.640 you're fired and you go, okay, well, I got to 0:36:29.640 --> 0:36:31.279 try and get a gig somewhere else, and there's less 0:36:31.280 --> 0:36:33.080 and less and less and less places to do this. 0:36:33.680 --> 0:36:36.400 Radio is in dire straits. Music radio is in very 0:36:36.520 --> 0:36:39.759 much dire straits. What we do around here isn't quite 0:36:39.840 --> 0:36:43.399 as replaceable just yet. And the content, the words coming 0:36:43.400 --> 0:36:47.400 out of our mouths, that is the stuff that the 0:36:47.520 --> 0:36:51.120 radio station can't just have music take care of. We 0:36:51.239 --> 0:36:54.040 are the content here, at least for now. But this 0:36:54.120 --> 0:36:55.600 is going to be happening so much more. If you 0:36:55.600 --> 0:36:58.160 have a station like that that you still like, it'll 0:36:58.200 --> 0:37:00.719 impact you. And I'll ask you that if you were 0:37:00.760 --> 0:37:03.440 listening to a music station and they said we're firing 0:37:03.680 --> 0:37:07.480 all of our radio DJs, no humans will be introducing 0:37:07.520 --> 0:37:10.440 the songs, does that change anything for you? Would you 0:37:10.480 --> 0:37:13.880 stop listening? Or do you really only care about the 0:37:13.960 --> 0:37:16.879 music to begin with? I used to think they cared 0:37:16.880 --> 0:37:20.880 about me when I was Sean Jay on WLDI Wild 0:37:21.040 --> 0:37:22.160 ninety five five. 0:37:22.280 --> 0:37:23.440 That's cute? Who you thought that? 0:37:24.080 --> 0:37:27.200 I thought people cared about me see Lane and my 0:37:27.360 --> 0:37:30.640 intro to the latest Britney Spears song. 0:37:31.440 --> 0:37:35.440 But they did not. Off last, they did not, not 0:37:35.480 --> 0:37:35.839 even the. 0:37:35.760 --> 0:37:38.399 People who ran the station cared about my voice being 0:37:38.440 --> 0:37:39.600 on that station so much. 0:37:40.080 --> 0:37:41.200 But this is the beginning of it. 0:37:41.239 --> 0:37:46.359 We had one of our local morning shows rips as 0:37:46.360 --> 0:37:48.439 of today, like was in the industry trades, I said, 0:37:49.000 --> 0:37:52.400 gone done over with. This is why I'm telling you guys, 0:37:52.520 --> 0:37:55.640 this is like, this is the beginning of the next 0:37:55.920 --> 0:38:00.279 the next layer of what broadcasting looks like. And that's 0:38:00.320 --> 0:38:01.840 what we're trying to be on the crest of the 0:38:01.880 --> 0:38:04.560 wave for. And it involves you. And if you like 0:38:04.680 --> 0:38:07.400 this stuff, now is the time to jump on board 0:38:07.400 --> 0:38:10.799 and support. Now's the time to show the suits that 0:38:10.840 --> 0:38:13.200 you do care about this kind of stuff, because it's 0:38:13.239 --> 0:38:16.080 gonna be a blood bath and radio might be Now 0:38:16.440 --> 0:38:20.600 your job is probably not too far down the line. 0:38:21.200 --> 0:38:23.799 Maybe ours too. We'll see about all of that. I've 0:38:23.840 --> 0:38:25.200 never this. 0:38:25.160 --> 0:38:29.359 Area where they broadcast the Inland Empire. There's a there 0:38:29.640 --> 0:38:35.279 small portion of California riverside San Bernardino, Ontario Metropolitania that 0:38:35.400 --> 0:38:38.560 they refer to as the Inland Empire. It makes it 0:38:38.600 --> 0:38:41.000 sound a lot cooler than it is. I think it's empire. 0:38:41.600 --> 0:38:42.560 It's not the beach. 0:38:43.600 --> 0:38:45.800 So instead of calling it just not the beach, they're like, 0:38:45.840 --> 0:38:47.360 it's the Inland Empire. 0:38:47.520 --> 0:38:53.080 Uh huh, josh, oh, is it really the U two place? Okay? Okay, 0:38:54.480 --> 0:38:54.839 thank you. 0:38:55.880 --> 0:38:59.320 I have lots more entries for our rate, my blank, 0:38:59.560 --> 0:39:03.640 I mean, and a ton of them. I don't know 0:39:04.480 --> 0:39:08.040 if any of these are good or worth worth playing. 0:39:08.400 --> 0:39:10.480 I do like that people are using TTS for some 0:39:10.560 --> 0:39:11.719 of them. Here's another entry. 0:39:11.880 --> 0:39:14.399 I do Norwegian ships have barcodes so they can scan 0:39:14.560 --> 0:39:15.160 d navy in? 0:39:21.200 --> 0:39:23.960 Putting two crowd cheers does not count? All right? 0:39:24.160 --> 0:39:27.040 No? Why do Norwegian ships have bar codes so they 0:39:27.080 --> 0:39:29.040 can scan the navy in? 0:39:29.360 --> 0:39:33.360 Yeah? I get it, I get it. That's one that 0:39:33.360 --> 0:39:36.399 that the TTS probably did a disservice to. 0:39:37.200 --> 0:39:41.000 The pacing was off. Yeah, this won't even have a 0:39:41.000 --> 0:39:41.399 punch longs. 0:39:41.440 --> 0:39:43.720 What do you call a cow with no legs? 0:39:44.160 --> 0:39:50.880 Ground beef? All right, that's one of the oldest jokes 0:39:50.880 --> 0:39:53.080 in the book. I know laughing at that. I didn't 0:39:53.120 --> 0:39:53.440 mean to. 0:39:55.200 --> 0:39:57.279 I was generally trying not to. This is why our 0:39:57.280 --> 0:39:59.000 industry is crumbling over here. 0:40:00.600 --> 0:40:05.560 Okay, one more, one more. Here's let's go over to 0:40:07.040 --> 0:40:12.399 this one.

I saw you 0:42:37.719 --> 0:42:40.240 were in Washington, DC over the weekend. 0:42:40.320 --> 0:42:40.680 Amy. 0:42:40.880 --> 0:42:42.279 It was fun. We went and picked up Kate. 0:42:42.360 --> 0:42:45.600 So she did a summer internship up there on Capitol Hill. 0:42:45.840 --> 0:42:47.880 She was kind of nervous about it going into it, 0:42:47.920 --> 0:42:49.960 and then she had a total blast and learned a 0:42:49.960 --> 0:42:51.960 lot and it was actually super cool. So have you 0:42:52.000 --> 0:42:54.960 guys been inside of the US Capitol building? 0:42:55.200 --> 0:42:56.400 Yes? I think okay. 0:42:56.520 --> 0:43:00.279 Once Sean was there, it was in January, a couple 0:43:00.320 --> 0:43:05.920 of years ago, and he said, George. 0:43:05.239 --> 0:43:09.080 Yeah, they just waved me right through. I got Nancy 0:43:09.080 --> 0:43:12.239 Pelosi's podium out of the whole thing. I don't think 0:43:12.280 --> 0:43:14.440 the guy could lift a podium like that, but he did. 0:43:16.480 --> 0:43:19.319 A Nightstands when I was a kid. I I think 0:43:19.360 --> 0:43:21.520 I went into uh went there. I went there not 0:43:21.920 --> 0:43:24.719 too long ago, but we didn't go back inside, but did. 0:43:24.760 --> 0:43:27.759 She gave me like a VIP tour, right And it. 0:43:27.760 --> 0:43:30.960 Was actually so cool to have your kid give you 0:43:31.000 --> 0:43:32.600 a tour because it was for me. 0:43:32.719 --> 0:43:34.960 It was like, wow, she's she was only. 0:43:34.800 --> 0:43:37.239 There ten weeks, but like all the things that she 0:43:37.360 --> 0:43:38.600 learned and it was fascinating. 0:43:38.600 --> 0:43:40.200 And so she was showing us things. 0:43:39.960 --> 0:43:44.520 Like the burnmarks on the on the like columns that 0:43:44.560 --> 0:43:46.720 were from when the British tried to burn the Capitol 0:43:46.760 --> 0:43:48.640 down in eighteen fourteen. And then we got to go 0:43:49.040 --> 0:43:51.520 under the Capitol rotunda and that's where the empty casket 0:43:51.560 --> 0:43:55.399 is for George Washington. Because they just basically made this 0:43:55.480 --> 0:44:00.200 little room for George Washington to be buried, to be 0:44:00.280 --> 0:44:03.360 interred inside the US capital. But then when he died, 0:44:03.480 --> 0:44:05.000 he was up. Now, I go no, I'd want to 0:44:05.000 --> 0:44:07.360 be buried at Mount Vernon. So they just left this 0:44:07.440 --> 0:44:10.439 empty casket there and it's been there, you know, for yeah, 0:44:10.600 --> 0:44:12.480 three years years. 0:44:12.520 --> 0:44:15.480 There's so much history that that people, especially a lot 0:44:15.480 --> 0:44:17.919 of like younger Americans, don't know. I think most people 0:44:17.920 --> 0:44:19.600 don't even know that the White House was burned down 0:44:19.640 --> 0:44:22.120 by the British at one point in time. But that's 0:44:22.160 --> 0:44:24.920 the true story. The you know, the British didn't just 0:44:25.000 --> 0:44:28.279 go away, Uh, they were they were treated into their 0:44:28.360 --> 0:44:31.600 territory in Canada at the time. And then the US 0:44:31.719 --> 0:44:34.239 was having skirmishes with the Brits, and the Brits were 0:44:34.239 --> 0:44:37.680 trying to arm and work with the Native American resistance, 0:44:37.719 --> 0:44:39.319 and there was a lot of stuff going on. And 0:44:39.360 --> 0:44:41.840 then at one point the Brits made their way to 0:44:41.880 --> 0:44:43.480 the White House and they burnt the son of a 0:44:43.480 --> 0:44:46.719 bitch to the ground. And there's still like it's the 0:44:46.800 --> 0:44:48.640 columns in some other areas where like. 0:44:48.760 --> 0:44:51.160 Inside the Capitol building. Yet you can see that the 0:44:51.239 --> 0:44:54.160 burn marks, you can see. It's funny there's on the steps, 0:44:54.160 --> 0:44:57.640 Like there's lots of spiral staircases throughout the US Capitol 0:44:57.640 --> 0:45:00.640 building that are marble, and you can see there's areas 0:45:00.719 --> 0:45:02.840 or chunks that were missing that they had to replace. 0:45:02.880 --> 0:45:05.520 And Kate was telling us there's one of two things there, 0:45:05.600 --> 0:45:08.759 not one hundred percent sure. Either cannons were dragged up 0:45:08.760 --> 0:45:11.880 the stairs and the cannons chipped the marble, or she 0:45:12.000 --> 0:45:14.840 said horses were inside the US Capitol and the horses 0:45:14.840 --> 0:45:18.320 would go up the stairwells and they would chip the marble. 0:45:18.360 --> 0:45:20.919 But just so many little things, a little intricate things 0:45:20.920 --> 0:45:23.000 that you wouldn't notice unless you have someone kind of 0:45:23.040 --> 0:45:23.719 walking you through it. 0:45:23.760 --> 0:45:25.000 So it was really it was fun. 0:45:25.120 --> 0:45:25.799 That's front of her. 0:45:25.920 --> 0:45:28.680 So she learned a lot. I'm sure had a good time. 0:45:29.320 --> 0:45:33.239 You rescued her from Washington, d C. She's back into 0:45:33.239 --> 0:45:36.279 the real world now. Yeah, there was there was so 0:45:36.360 --> 0:45:38.080 much going on this weekend. How close did I know 0:45:38.160 --> 0:45:40.200 you guys were covering it this morning? How close were 0:45:40.280 --> 0:45:42.800 we watching that. I'm still not exactly sure what was 0:45:42.840 --> 0:45:44.560 going on with that shooting at an in and out 0:45:44.640 --> 0:45:46.920 location of all places. 0:45:47.120 --> 0:45:50.399 Don Yeah, twenty four year old kid. I say kid 0:45:50.400 --> 0:45:52.359 because twenty four to me is still young. But yeah, 0:45:52.440 --> 0:45:56.800 So apparently this in and out in Idaho, Southern Idaho 0:45:56.920 --> 0:45:59.319 had Twin Falls, had only been open for a week. 0:45:59.760 --> 0:46:04.280 This kid walks up into the restaurant and start shooting indiscriminately, 0:46:05.360 --> 0:46:08.240 killed three people, seven others injured. But it was actually 0:46:08.280 --> 0:46:12.319 a hero off duty officer and someone else who was 0:46:12.400 --> 0:46:16.799 inside of the restaurant who was carrying a concealed weapons. 0:46:16.560 --> 0:46:19.000 The guy with a cowboy hat, right yeah. 0:46:18.760 --> 0:46:21.080 And they both pulled out their weapons and started shooting 0:46:21.080 --> 0:46:22.879 at the kid, and it kind of freaked the kid out. 0:46:22.880 --> 0:46:24.960 I guess he wasn't anticipating that someone was going to 0:46:24.960 --> 0:46:26.080 be shooting back at him. 0:46:26.760 --> 0:46:29.480 And he never do yeah, yeah. 0:46:29.360 --> 0:46:30.359 Yeah, they never do. Yeh. 0:46:30.400 --> 0:46:34.000 So I still haven't figured out why there's something weird 0:46:34.120 --> 0:46:37.759 that happens. Sometimes they released the person's name and they go, 0:46:37.920 --> 0:46:40.880 here's this younger man who was the shooter at this 0:46:40.960 --> 0:46:44.520 in and out burger in Twin Falls, Idaho over the weekend. 0:46:44.880 --> 0:46:46.839 And we'll get into more of the details of this later. 0:46:46.880 --> 0:46:48.759 And I got some of the press conference stuff. But 0:46:50.080 --> 0:46:52.520 when they said his name and you started, people started, 0:46:52.600 --> 0:46:55.200 of course quickly furiously searching for him. All over the 0:46:55.200 --> 0:46:57.799 social media platform, and there wasn't really a lot to 0:46:57.840 --> 0:46:59.520 go by as far as I saw. It wasn't like, 0:46:59.680 --> 0:47:02.960 oh he did this because he hated blank. You know, 0:47:03.239 --> 0:47:06.279 like that doesn't seem clear as to what was going on. 0:47:06.480 --> 0:47:10.400 There was Can you remember the Butler Pennsylvania shooter. 0:47:10.480 --> 0:47:13.440 It was the same thing, exactly very little information about 0:47:13.440 --> 0:47:16.399 that guy. I mean, they could hardly find any kind 0:47:16.440 --> 0:47:19.440 of you know, information like that showed like he was, 0:47:19.520 --> 0:47:21.600 you know, it wasn't like a Luigi man Gioni thing 0:47:21.640 --> 0:47:24.040 where it's like there's a whole you know, manifested. 0:47:24.320 --> 0:47:27.680 He wrote it right on the bullets. Yeah. Well no, 0:47:27.840 --> 0:47:29.080 but there's different things. 0:47:29.280 --> 0:47:32.000 What I'm talking about mostly is usually, well, for a 0:47:32.000 --> 0:47:33.879 long period of time when there was somebody who was 0:47:33.880 --> 0:47:38.040 carrying out an attack like this, there were a lot 0:47:38.080 --> 0:47:41.239 of social media postings in history. And then there's been 0:47:41.239 --> 0:47:43.960 some of these people like also the Charlie kirk assass 0:47:44.000 --> 0:47:48.719 and that guy had a pretty sparse Internet history himself, 0:47:48.800 --> 0:47:51.400 and so you just think, well, young person, once we 0:47:51.440 --> 0:47:53.480 get their name or to see what they were posting about. 0:47:53.680 --> 0:47:55.880 I haven't seen anything that tells me the motivation of 0:47:55.920 --> 0:47:57.360 the shooter at this in and out. 0:47:57.200 --> 0:47:59.719 Yet No, not yet and all I mean his name 0:47:59.800 --> 0:48:01.799 is Williams. I didn't even put that on my post 0:48:01.800 --> 0:48:03.640 today because it's such a common name, you know what 0:48:03.719 --> 0:48:06.840 I mean, I feel like it it'd be hard to 0:48:07.640 --> 0:48:10.040 track down this particular guy unless you're a pretty good 0:48:10.080 --> 0:48:12.080 internet slouth, which make sure there will be plenty of 0:48:12.120 --> 0:48:15.040 people that we'll find out more. For sure, this happened 0:48:15.080 --> 0:48:17.279 on Saturday afternoon, so we'll find out more. 0:48:17.440 --> 0:48:17.640 Yeah. 0:48:17.680 --> 0:48:19.680 It is one of those cases though, where he did 0:48:19.680 --> 0:48:21.239 this in a place where there was at least a 0:48:21.239 --> 0:48:24.160 couple of people with guns and they started firing back 0:48:24.200 --> 0:48:27.279 at this guy and then I think it took his 0:48:27.320 --> 0:48:29.919 own life at the end of it. But we'll see 0:48:29.920 --> 0:48:32.600 if there's any anything else coming out of that. What 0:48:32.680 --> 0:48:34.840 else was grabbing your attention this weekend? 0:48:34.960 --> 0:48:37.480 So you guys, we are learning more about this double 0:48:37.520 --> 0:48:40.800 homicide that happened in DeLand. For those of your listeners 0:48:40.800 --> 0:48:42.799 who are outside of the central Florida area, this is 0:48:42.840 --> 0:48:46.279 a sleepy town, a sweet town. It is a university 0:48:46.320 --> 0:48:51.600 town home to Stetson University, and this double homicide happened 0:48:51.719 --> 0:48:54.480 very close to what is called the Historic Athens Theater, 0:48:54.640 --> 0:48:58.240 which is a popular community theater where performances are happening 0:48:58.239 --> 0:49:02.720 all the time. Bodies were found on Wednesday, July twenty ninth. 0:49:02.920 --> 0:49:03.759 These two young men. 0:49:03.880 --> 0:49:07.040 One of them is a student at the Citadel. If 0:49:07.040 --> 0:49:10.680 anybody knows anything about prestigious military academies, this is. 0:49:10.640 --> 0:49:11.160 One of them. 0:49:12.160 --> 0:49:14.839 And these two young men nineteen and eighteen years old, 0:49:14.920 --> 0:49:15.720 childhood friends. 0:49:15.760 --> 0:49:17.040 One of them lives in Chicago. 0:49:17.200 --> 0:49:21.120 That's the second young man, and the other one, Dustin, 0:49:21.239 --> 0:49:22.960 is the one who was at the Citadel. They were 0:49:23.080 --> 0:49:28.480 home on some kind of break and very mysterious. We 0:49:28.520 --> 0:49:30.839 really don't know a whole lot about the circumstances other 0:49:30.880 --> 0:49:32.480 than they were shot multiple times. 0:49:32.560 --> 0:49:35.440 So two guys shot and killed and they found their 0:49:35.480 --> 0:49:36.799 bodies together, and they don't know. 0:49:37.400 --> 0:49:37.680 Wow. 0:49:37.760 --> 0:49:39.520 So here's what we do know, And there has not 0:49:39.560 --> 0:49:40.400 been a lot of information. 0:49:40.440 --> 0:49:42.800 The FBI is now working with DeLand Police and Blish 0:49:42.840 --> 0:49:45.880 County authorities on this one. But we do know that 0:49:45.920 --> 0:49:49.040 they did execute a search warrant over the weekend and 0:49:49.120 --> 0:49:51.440 they went to a house on They're not even giving 0:49:51.480 --> 0:49:52.480 us an exact address. 0:49:52.520 --> 0:49:55.880 The house is on Lofton Street in DeLand. 0:49:56.280 --> 0:49:58.160 We don't know if any arrests were made, if they 0:49:58.280 --> 0:50:00.720 were able to maybe get some evidence from there. 0:50:01.800 --> 0:50:04.000 We just we don't know. I mean, it's very mysterious. 0:50:04.040 --> 0:50:05.960 We actually had a lady on this morning who's a 0:50:06.000 --> 0:50:08.879 retired FBI agent, and she said the same thing. She said, 0:50:08.880 --> 0:50:11.080 she's glad the FBI is working on this because they 0:50:11.120 --> 0:50:14.000 obviously have the resources. As you guys know from like 0:50:14.040 --> 0:50:17.600 the Nancy Guthrie case. If you don't get the FBI 0:50:17.760 --> 0:50:21.320 in there early, you know, it can be really damaging 0:50:21.360 --> 0:50:23.600 because sometimes you know, in the in these cases of 0:50:23.920 --> 0:50:26.680 especially something that is sort of as mysterious is this 0:50:26.840 --> 0:50:30.960 particular one, you know, you need all eyes on it, 0:50:31.040 --> 0:50:33.240 and you need it all on there as quickly as possible. 0:50:33.239 --> 0:50:36.120 We called that the first forty eight right, yeah, right, yeah. 0:50:36.000 --> 0:50:39.120 Yeah, you end up with that sheriff down there. And 0:50:39.160 --> 0:50:41.319 the Nancy Guthrie thing didn't very well. 0:50:42.080 --> 0:50:44.319 You there was a whole write up about him and 0:50:44.360 --> 0:50:47.400 how he bungled that operation in the Wall Street Journal 0:50:47.440 --> 0:50:51.400 this weekend. Oh my god, man, like just talk about 0:50:51.440 --> 0:50:54.200 incompetence in law enforce and like, I was so bad. 0:50:54.320 --> 0:50:57.080 But that is a very strange case. 0:50:57.120 --> 0:50:59.919 So I'll be interested to see you disturbing. So yes, 0:51:00.160 --> 0:51:04.200 we're still waiting more information on this. There were some 0:51:04.280 --> 0:51:07.240 rumors going around that there had been other crimes happening 0:51:07.320 --> 0:51:10.160 in DeLand that people were wondering if this was connected 0:51:10.200 --> 0:51:13.520 to it. I think, to me, what's just most interesting 0:51:13.560 --> 0:51:15.319 is that these two was Were these guys just in 0:51:15.360 --> 0:51:16.680 the wrong place at the wrong time. 0:51:17.760 --> 0:51:19.040 We don't know, we don't know. 0:51:19.320 --> 0:51:21.520 Interesting. We'll have to We'll have to keep an eye 0:51:21.600 --> 0:51:23.879 on that story, for sure. I want to tsk something 0:51:23.920 --> 0:51:26.800 at you here because I saw a lot of people 0:51:26.840 --> 0:51:30.040 talking about this this weekend.

Hey did you see that the ladies singing 0:54:15.200 --> 0:54:16.560 the national anthem at the. 0:54:18.760 --> 0:54:20.440 I don't know what that was about either. 0:54:20.520 --> 0:54:23.359 Speaking of things that were disturbing, so the goal. 0:54:23.600 --> 0:54:24.200 So that was it. 0:54:24.280 --> 0:54:27.319 Martha Reeves, Yes, apparently at one point she was like 0:54:27.360 --> 0:54:29.840 a very successful I'm trying to remember. 0:54:29.960 --> 0:54:39.960 She was in Martha successful performer, right, Martha and thee. 0:54:37.719 --> 0:54:39.439 Martha and the Vandela's. 0:54:39.000 --> 0:54:41.240 Vendela that almost have vendettas And I knew that didn't 0:54:41.239 --> 0:54:41.680 sound right. 0:54:42.719 --> 0:54:43.719 It was really good. 0:54:43.920 --> 0:54:47.040 Yeah, she sang the song heat Wave, I think Celan said, 0:54:47.080 --> 0:54:50.359 and a bunch of other really popular songs. But my god, 0:54:50.560 --> 0:54:54.239 was that absolutely bad. That was mega viral. We'll played 0:54:54.239 --> 0:54:55.319 at the beginning of the show if you. 0:54:55.239 --> 0:54:58.279 Missed it, do you guys think it was worse than 0:54:58.280 --> 0:55:01.680 like fergiear Roseanne or like you rank it? 0:55:01.680 --> 0:55:02.160 It was worse. 0:55:03.360 --> 0:55:06.520 I watched a couple of the all time contenders. I 0:55:06.560 --> 0:55:09.000 didn't watch Roseanne over the weekend, but once I saw 0:55:09.040 --> 0:55:12.880 this Martha Reeves thing, I watched Fergie, I watched Shaka 0:55:12.960 --> 0:55:15.200 Khan that was one that some people said was bad. 0:55:15.800 --> 0:55:20.319 And then Christina Aguilera, who does the singing incursive thing, 0:55:20.520 --> 0:55:21.600 who which a lot. 0:55:21.440 --> 0:55:22.120 Of people hate. 0:55:22.640 --> 0:55:24.960 You know, they wanted to be a more traditional by 0:55:25.000 --> 0:55:29.719 the book anthem, and but Christina actually messed up some 0:55:29.719 --> 0:55:31.400 of the words at the Super Bowl, which was a 0:55:31.440 --> 0:55:34.799 little embarrassing, but I think all of that stuff can 0:55:34.840 --> 0:55:37.960 be forgiven once I watch this Martha Reeves and the 0:55:37.960 --> 0:55:42.399 two other random women singing the same song at two 0:55:42.440 --> 0:55:44.799 different tempos and in two different keys, but at the 0:55:44.840 --> 0:55:46.440 same time, because why not. 0:55:47.480 --> 0:55:53.279 It was Yeah, I feel like I think they were 0:55:53.320 --> 0:55:53.919 just there to help. 0:55:53.960 --> 0:55:55.800 I'll bring it up just in case you're just joining 0:55:55.840 --> 0:55:56.960 us if you haven't heard this yet. 0:55:57.000 --> 0:55:58.879 It is quite bad. It doesn't take a long time 0:55:58.920 --> 0:56:02.560 to get the point. You see. 0:56:08.320 --> 0:56:20.279 Was so Foundrive s r. 0:56:21.800 --> 0:56:27.719 She's borderline like a ghost. She's like, oh, yeah, the 0:56:27.800 --> 0:56:33.080 vibrato was very, very overdone. I think, yeah it was. 0:56:33.160 --> 0:56:36.440 It was a thing. So yeah, there's that. Well, what 0:56:36.520 --> 0:56:38.359 else grabbed your attention this morning? Guys? 0:56:38.400 --> 0:56:40.319 This is a wild story. So this was a couple 0:56:40.360 --> 0:56:42.080 of days ago, but people are still talking about it. 0:56:42.120 --> 0:56:44.360 We're hoping to have the sheriff on tomorrow. Sheriff for Staley, 0:56:44.400 --> 0:56:47.279 who is the Flagler County sheriff, was going out to 0:56:47.320 --> 0:56:51.359 dinner with his wife, okay, and he uh he says 0:56:51.400 --> 0:56:55.040 he spotted a white dodged Challenger with black racing stripes 0:56:55.640 --> 0:56:58.760 flying past him. So he turns on his radar and 0:56:58.840 --> 0:57:01.760 the guy is going one hundred and twenty five miles 0:57:01.760 --> 0:57:04.680 an hour. What you guys know that these super speeder laws. 0:57:04.800 --> 0:57:08.480 Now anything that is okay. So the law is you 0:57:08.520 --> 0:57:11.040 can't be going over one hundred right then if anything 0:57:11.080 --> 0:57:14.000 over one hundred over is considered super speeder. 0:57:13.800 --> 0:57:17.680 Or forty miles an hour over, the post is speed limits. 0:57:17.720 --> 0:57:19.840 So say it's a twenty five mile an hour zone 0:57:19.880 --> 0:57:22.640 and you're going seventy, yeah, that would also be considered 0:57:22.640 --> 0:57:23.440 it super speeder. 0:57:23.680 --> 0:57:24.320 Yeah. 0:57:24.400 --> 0:57:27.960 So sheriff's day with his wife in the car, pulls 0:57:28.000 --> 0:57:28.960 this guy over. 0:57:29.120 --> 0:57:31.680 Okay, he ends up getting him pulled over. 0:57:31.840 --> 0:57:35.960 The guy his name is a Rule Nayak of Palm Coast, 0:57:35.960 --> 0:57:37.320 he's twenty two years old. 0:57:37.720 --> 0:57:40.520 He had three other people in the vehicle with him, okay, 0:57:41.440 --> 0:57:43.120 and he ends up pulling him over, and. 0:57:43.080 --> 0:57:46.400 He the guy says he knows he's getting arrested. 0:57:46.440 --> 0:57:46.840 Okay. 0:57:47.280 --> 0:57:50.400 So as as this is happening, people are honking. Their 0:57:50.440 --> 0:57:53.040 appreciation is they're driving by because the guy was not 0:57:53.080 --> 0:57:54.960 only going super fast, but he was weaving in and 0:57:54.960 --> 0:57:56.920 out of traffic, which you guys know is a little s. 0:57:57.160 --> 0:57:59.920 So driving one hundred and something miles an hour and driving, 0:58:00.040 --> 0:58:00.840 you know, like weaving in. 0:58:00.800 --> 0:58:02.480 And out of the Yeah. 0:58:02.520 --> 0:58:04.800 So he tells the sheriff that guy had no no 0:58:04.920 --> 0:58:07.800 criminal history, had never been in trouble before. But he 0:58:07.920 --> 0:58:11.520 did tell Sheriff Daley, Hey, I'm taking my pilot's license 0:58:11.560 --> 0:58:13.760 exam on Saturday, so I just need to be out 0:58:13.760 --> 0:58:14.720 of jail before then. 0:58:16.080 --> 0:58:16.360 Sure. 0:58:16.880 --> 0:58:18.840 Yeah, we'll just fast track this whole thing. 0:58:19.440 --> 0:58:21.840 I don't think they like it when you tell them 0:58:21.840 --> 0:58:23.920 you've got something to do, right. 0:58:24.240 --> 0:58:26.920 Yeah, it didn't seem very worried about that arrest. For 0:58:27.000 --> 0:58:30.480 God's sake, Holy cow. Yeah, that's something. 0:58:30.240 --> 0:58:33.280 I don't understand why people keep doing this. 0:58:33.360 --> 0:58:35.439 I mean, they know it's against the law, Like they 0:58:35.480 --> 0:58:37.560 know that they're going to get in big trouble. 0:58:37.600 --> 0:58:38.760 You know you're in jail. 0:58:39.000 --> 0:58:42.280 Yeah why Yeah, Well for now, until more of the 0:58:42.280 --> 0:58:44.880 stories get out there about the people actually going to jail, 0:58:45.360 --> 0:58:48.200 I think that will eventually curb some of this behavior 0:58:48.240 --> 0:58:48.720 a little bit. 0:58:49.280 --> 0:58:51.040 You see the real quick though. 0:58:51.080 --> 0:58:54.120 Did you see the other story Amy about the Lusha 0:58:54.240 --> 0:58:59.080 County sheriff who said they Valusia County passed a new 0:58:59.200 --> 0:59:02.600 law or new rule about kids on e bikes and 0:59:02.640 --> 0:59:05.880 they're like, kids cannot ride e bikes in our county. 0:59:05.880 --> 0:59:08.200 You're not allowed to hear all the rules for e 0:59:08.280 --> 0:59:10.320 bike riding in our county. And the sheriff was like, 0:59:10.400 --> 0:59:13.520 I'm not going to enforce it. Yeah, the sheriff was. 0:59:13.800 --> 0:59:16.560 About rescinding it, like basically saying that we're we're not 0:59:16.600 --> 0:59:18.400 going to do this anymore because if we can't get 0:59:18.400 --> 0:59:20.760 the sheriff to enforce it. Although it was in DeLand, 0:59:20.760 --> 0:59:23.000 you would think like, okay, well maybe DeLand police can 0:59:23.080 --> 0:59:24.920 enforce it, but my guess is they don't want to 0:59:25.000 --> 0:59:25.320 right now. 0:59:25.360 --> 0:59:28.280 No, but how do we do this? This is going 0:59:28.320 --> 0:59:29.520 to take up all of our time. 0:59:30.440 --> 0:59:32.600 This is going to happen in every city across the country, 0:59:32.640 --> 0:59:34.280 So no matter where you're listening to this, this will 0:59:34.280 --> 0:59:36.120 be something that happens to you. Two, they made a 0:59:36.160 --> 0:59:40.640 local law about kids and underage kids riding on scooters 0:59:40.640 --> 0:59:43.280 and e bikes and stuff. But Selan, the sheriff, is like, 0:59:43.280 --> 0:59:45.720 what am I supposed to pull these kids over and 0:59:45.840 --> 0:59:49.200 start demanding ID and check to see who's what age 0:59:49.240 --> 0:59:50.959 on the e bikes that are cruising around. 0:59:51.000 --> 0:59:52.480 He's like, I'm not going to do anything about that. 0:59:52.960 --> 0:59:55.320 Interesting to me, it's kind of like do you guys, 0:59:55.360 --> 0:59:57.280 remember when they first made it against the law to 0:59:57.400 --> 0:59:59.400 be on your cell phone while you're driving. Uh huh 0:59:59.640 --> 1:00:01.680 the last time somebody got pulled over for being on 1:00:01.720 --> 1:00:02.640 their cell phone while driving? 1:00:02.680 --> 1:00:03.160 You know what I mean. 1:00:03.160 --> 1:00:04.480 It's like there's just certain things. 1:00:04.520 --> 1:00:07.320 It's like, Okay, you can pass the law, but who's 1:00:07.880 --> 1:00:09.280 who's actually going to enforce this? 1:00:09.480 --> 1:00:12.480 Somebody says, see, which says the sheriff doesn't have the 1:00:12.520 --> 1:00:15.080 authority to pick and choose what laws he enforces. 1:00:15.240 --> 1:00:18.400 Well does he? 1:00:18.400 --> 1:00:20.360 He's a flat out saying he's not going to be 1:00:20.440 --> 1:00:23.840 saying there's state law that I think he says supersedes 1:00:23.880 --> 1:00:27.320 the county and so like, even though there's a problem 1:00:27.360 --> 1:00:29.080 with kids on e bikes, this ain't gonna cut it. 1:00:29.120 --> 1:00:31.440 You're gonna have to have a bigger law somewhere. 1:00:31.520 --> 1:00:33.760 So yeah, part of the problem too, and this is 1:00:33.800 --> 1:00:35.800 happening all over the country, this is not just a 1:00:35.800 --> 1:00:38.640 Florida issue, is that, you know, everybody is trying to 1:00:38.640 --> 1:00:40.240 come up with their own set of laws. 1:00:40.600 --> 1:00:41.760 So I feel like. 1:00:41.720 --> 1:00:44.920 This, to me, the state needs to say this is 1:00:44.960 --> 1:00:47.800 what we're doing and then just make it blanket for everybody. 1:00:47.840 --> 1:00:51.480 Because having every municipality doing their own thing is way 1:00:51.640 --> 1:00:52.320 too complished. 1:00:52.440 --> 1:00:54.440 Yeah, that gets that turns into a mess.

The kiss you. 1:02:53.000 --> 1:02:56.200 That's adorable, That is adorable. He feels bad for you. 1:02:56.240 --> 1:02:58.240 He's embarrassing. Probably is. 1:03:00.200 --> 1:03:01.600 They're now saying in chat that they don't have any 1:03:01.600 --> 1:03:02.919 sea landing their monitor either. 1:03:03.480 --> 1:03:03.960 This is you know. 1:03:04.000 --> 1:03:06.440 There you go now now if you're watching over on 1:03:06.520 --> 1:03:08.920 YouTube or twitch dot tv slash the news joke, you 1:03:09.000 --> 1:03:11.440 could see. So we watched this Spider Man brand new 1:03:11.480 --> 1:03:13.640 day over the weekend, along with eight billion other people 1:03:14.160 --> 1:03:16.640 and a lot of stuff came up around this, But 1:03:16.920 --> 1:03:19.720 one thing I came up was in the movie. I'm 1:03:19.720 --> 1:03:21.240 not going to spoil anything here for you at all, 1:03:21.240 --> 1:03:23.200 but in spider Man Brand New Day, one of the 1:03:23.200 --> 1:03:28.880 main characters is Punisher, and it was interesting watching Courtney's 1:03:28.920 --> 1:03:32.160 take on Punisher, and I think she's exactly right about 1:03:32.160 --> 1:03:35.280 this all right. When I was young, Punisher was kind 1:03:35.280 --> 1:03:38.880 of the cool character in comic books. If you were 1:03:38.920 --> 1:03:40.840 a guy and you wanted to be cool, you didn't 1:03:40.880 --> 1:03:43.520 really care about Batman. Batman was kind of nerdy at 1:03:43.520 --> 1:03:45.840 the time, still kind of is a little bit, save 1:03:45.920 --> 1:03:46.920 for some portrayals. 1:03:47.480 --> 1:03:50.680 I see you Nolan in the Batman world. Spider Man 1:03:50.800 --> 1:03:51.400 was like whatever. 1:03:52.040 --> 1:03:54.320 But if you wanted to be kind of edgy or cool, 1:03:54.720 --> 1:04:01.520 you liked like Punisher, ghost Rider or Deadpool. Right, those 1:04:01.560 --> 1:04:03.080 are the ones that you like because those are the 1:04:03.200 --> 1:04:06.160 edgier characters. And I liked that they had a little 1:04:06.160 --> 1:04:09.680 more edginess in this New Spider Man movie that was 1:04:10.200 --> 1:04:13.160 almost the biggest movie ever this weekend, just just under 1:04:13.160 --> 1:04:16.920 Avengers Endgame for its opening weekend without any Imax screens 1:04:17.360 --> 1:04:20.720 as well. And the Punisher is in this and Courty 1:04:20.760 --> 1:04:24.800 goes Oh, just the Punisher is that that skull logo? 1:04:25.600 --> 1:04:29.880 And she said, that's a red flag for me. And 1:04:29.960 --> 1:04:33.000 it's just under like a guy who's obsessed with the Joker. 1:04:33.760 --> 1:04:36.400 And I said, there's a lot of truth to that. 1:04:36.680 --> 1:04:39.440 If there's a guy. Ladies know this. If there's a 1:04:39.480 --> 1:04:43.280 guy with too much Joker stuff on his car or 1:04:43.320 --> 1:04:46.240 like somehow in his life somewhere, you know, if he's 1:04:46.280 --> 1:04:48.160 got a Joker rap on his vehicle. 1:04:48.600 --> 1:04:51.400 I hate to say this, if you're talking about somebody specific. 1:04:51.760 --> 1:04:55.680 I'm not talking about Joker gangang or old friend. I 1:04:56.080 --> 1:04:57.440 don't know the person. 1:04:58.000 --> 1:05:01.960 Yeah, but like like a regular at a bar that 1:05:02.000 --> 1:05:05.120 would stand out to you. There is a vehicle that 1:05:05.240 --> 1:05:09.360 drives around my area that is completely wrapped in Joker. 1:05:09.680 --> 1:05:15.080 That's a red flag. And it says like, why so serious? Yes, look, 1:05:16.040 --> 1:05:18.760 you're a grown ass adult. It's a grown man, right, 1:05:18.840 --> 1:05:20.720 Look there's a grown man driving a car with Joker 1:05:20.720 --> 1:05:25.800 all over the place. Why so serious? And you're like, okay, 1:05:25.840 --> 1:05:29.240 your obsession with this character is indicative of probably some 1:05:29.360 --> 1:05:31.000 personality traits. 1:05:31.240 --> 1:05:32.560 That some people are not gonna like. 1:05:32.720 --> 1:05:36.720 And Corny goes Punisher is number two right behind the Joker. 1:05:37.440 --> 1:05:41.640 Like if a guy skeletons and stuff. I'm not as 1:05:41.760 --> 1:05:44.880 familiar with the Punisher as a character, just because I 1:05:44.880 --> 1:05:48.600 haven't seen. First of all, I never read much despite 1:05:48.600 --> 1:05:51.000 working at a comic book store, never read much comics 1:05:51.000 --> 1:05:53.680 at all in my life. M hm, So I haven't 1:05:53.720 --> 1:05:56.720 really seen a lot of movies with Punisher in them. However, 1:05:57.400 --> 1:06:01.160 I know that that skull logo, I think it's a 1:06:01.200 --> 1:06:06.000 pretty common tattoo. Yeah, and like the bigger the Punisher tattoo, 1:06:06.120 --> 1:06:10.160 you go, all right, we wanted that pretty good. I 1:06:10.200 --> 1:06:13.120 know some military people have co opted it, and that's fine, 1:06:13.200 --> 1:06:15.360 Like if you want, Like, you know, I'm a military guy, 1:06:15.400 --> 1:06:18.520 and here's the symbol i'm gonna put. People put salt 1:06:18.560 --> 1:06:20.880 life if they're into fishing, and I'm gonna put that 1:06:20.920 --> 1:06:23.520 because I'm a military person. I mean, somebody who just 1:06:23.560 --> 1:06:26.480 like starts covering their stuff and punish your things. 1:06:27.160 --> 1:06:28.120 And the more of. 1:06:28.080 --> 1:06:30.920 It that there is, the more you're like, whoo, I 1:06:30.960 --> 1:06:34.800 don't know, Joker is worse. And I'm sure you guys 1:06:34.800 --> 1:06:37.240 have other things like that. If somebody's obsessed with it, 1:06:37.280 --> 1:06:38.160 you go oof. 1:06:39.440 --> 1:06:40.040 Immediately. 1:06:40.080 --> 1:06:43.760 It's a tell about their personality. Like if a person's 1:06:43.800 --> 1:06:46.480 obsessed with this thing one thing, and this is a 1:06:46.880 --> 1:06:48.440 this is a sneaky one. A lot of you guys 1:06:48.480 --> 1:06:51.080 aren't gonna know what to make of this, But if 1:06:51.120 --> 1:06:55.480 you know somebody that is very obsessed, like will not 1:06:55.560 --> 1:06:59.360 stop talking about it, very obsessed with the movie Old Boy, 1:06:59.720 --> 1:07:04.360 run okay, run in the other direction as fast as 1:07:04.400 --> 1:07:06.760 you possibly can. That is one of the indicators that 1:07:06.800 --> 1:07:07.640 this person. 1:07:07.400 --> 1:07:11.960 Is a little bit weird. Is not a green flag 1:07:12.000 --> 1:07:14.040 for me that I don't even know what Old Boy is. 1:07:14.400 --> 1:07:17.800 I think it is, Yeah, I think that's in twenty 1:07:17.880 --> 1:07:19.000 and three or twenty thirteen. 1:07:20.240 --> 1:07:22.760 I don't know which ones which, but it's it's a 1:07:22.800 --> 1:07:25.320 movie that the people who are obsessed with it usually 1:07:25.440 --> 1:07:27.680 end up falling into this category where it says more 1:07:27.680 --> 1:07:30.880 about their personality. It's one of those movies where if 1:07:30.920 --> 1:07:35.160 somebody obsesses over it, it's it's like, ah, there's a 1:07:35.160 --> 1:07:37.000 lot of people that have these kind of things that 1:07:37.000 --> 1:07:40.040 they're giving off. Somebody says American Psycho is like that. Meep, 1:07:40.200 --> 1:07:44.200 I don't know, I mean that uh okay movie. 1:07:45.160 --> 1:07:50.320 Yeah, but I've I've I've not like found people to 1:07:50.400 --> 1:07:52.360 be I haven't seen that as a red flag, like, oh, 1:07:52.400 --> 1:07:54.760 this person really likes American Psycho. I don't see it 1:07:54.760 --> 1:07:58.080 a lot. However, there have been people that I have 1:07:58.240 --> 1:08:01.600 found to be obnoxious online and have gotten into fights 1:08:01.600 --> 1:08:06.920 with that are obsessed with American Psycho, and so it's 1:08:07.040 --> 1:08:11.120 like doing like a reverse kind of stigma on me. 1:08:11.200 --> 1:08:13.320 Maybe they're right. Maybe I haven't picked up on that. 1:08:13.760 --> 1:08:15.840 Somebody says, wf his Old Boy. If you don't know 1:08:15.880 --> 1:08:17.719 what it is, you're better off just to stay away. 1:08:17.720 --> 1:08:19.280 Some people really like the movie and I'm not coming 1:08:19.280 --> 1:08:23.240 down in the movie. I'm coming down Spike Uh no, no, no, no, 1:08:23.280 --> 1:08:26.080 not not Spike Lee, the Korean one, the Korean one. Yeah, 1:08:26.120 --> 1:08:29.439 the Korean movie Old Boy. If you find some like 1:08:29.680 --> 1:08:33.200 Western Web obsessed with this two three, I know that's 1:08:33.240 --> 1:08:34.640 not a weed, but you know, be easy on me. 1:08:35.760 --> 1:08:38.479 That movie is one of them where it's like, and 1:08:38.520 --> 1:08:39.960 you guys are probably gonna have other ones you could 1:08:39.960 --> 1:08:42.160 toss in like this, But there are things. Punisher I 1:08:42.160 --> 1:08:44.320 think is definitely one of them. And I saw the 1:08:44.320 --> 1:08:47.080 Punisher guy this weekend. It was it was a USA 1:08:47.160 --> 1:08:50.519 Today article John burnhal Is he's on top of his 1:08:50.600 --> 1:08:53.200 game right now. He was in Walking Dead, He's in 1:08:53.280 --> 1:08:56.800 the Odyssey, and he's in Spider Man, Brand New Dead, 1:08:57.000 --> 1:08:59.200 like you won this year, you got you and Tom 1:08:59.240 --> 1:09:04.479 Holland and Zendaya better Zendeia. You guys win twenty twenty six. 1:09:04.520 --> 1:09:09.799 Already congratulations, super talented people, but you end up walking 1:09:09.840 --> 1:09:11.679 into a bunch of dumb stuff when you start talking 1:09:11.680 --> 1:09:12.080 too much. 1:09:12.120 --> 1:09:13.519 I guess he was. 1:09:13.640 --> 1:09:17.360 Also we talked about John Bernhal last week or the 1:09:17.360 --> 1:09:20.720 week before, and Pisenberg had reminded me of this. He 1:09:21.040 --> 1:09:24.400 was in The Bear, but only like seven episodes, and 1:09:24.439 --> 1:09:27.800 they're all flashbacks because he was the brother that took 1:09:27.840 --> 1:09:33.160 his life, that started that started the story of the Bear. 1:09:33.360 --> 1:09:36.600 Likely he kind of like got the ball rolling for 1:09:36.680 --> 1:09:40.880 everything as far as the storyline goes. So while while 1:09:40.960 --> 1:09:45.679 his character is very important to the story of The Bear, 1:09:46.320 --> 1:09:48.160 the fact that he's not in it is kind of 1:09:48.200 --> 1:09:50.519 the main thing. And so he was only in seven 1:09:50.560 --> 1:09:53.320 episodes of the what five season run. 1:09:53.920 --> 1:09:57.040 Yeah, so he seems nice. I'll be honest with you. 1:09:57.240 --> 1:09:58.960 Don't don't come at me on this one. I don't 1:09:59.000 --> 1:10:00.920 know too much about him. He seems kind of dopey, 1:10:01.280 --> 1:10:03.400 which is okay. He's just an actor. Like you know, 1:10:03.960 --> 1:10:05.880 actors are allowed. They don't have to be the smartest 1:10:05.920 --> 1:10:08.519 people on the planet. They're very skilled to what they do. 1:10:08.600 --> 1:10:10.680 He was as great as the Punisher, was great in 1:10:10.720 --> 1:10:13.160 these other roles that we're talking about. But John Berthal 1:10:13.200 --> 1:10:14.760 doesn't strike me as the smartest guy, you know what 1:10:14.800 --> 1:10:17.519 I mean. Don't really care about his thoughts on like 1:10:17.600 --> 1:10:21.120 deep world issues and stuff. He doesn't strike me as 1:10:21.160 --> 1:10:22.960 an incredibly right guy. He strikes me as a fun guy, 1:10:22.960 --> 1:10:25.800 which is great. Don't get me wrong, it's great. It's fine, 1:10:25.840 --> 1:10:26.240 it's great. 1:10:26.800 --> 1:10:28.880 But you're not going to sit down at the bar 1:10:29.000 --> 1:10:32.000 with him and go like, hey, John Bernenthal, tell me 1:10:32.080 --> 1:10:33.479 what you think about Guzza. 1:10:33.920 --> 1:10:36.120 Yeah, I'm not gonna do that. And maybe he knows 1:10:36.160 --> 1:10:38.879 a lot about this. He doesn't strike me as that guy. However, 1:10:39.200 --> 1:10:42.479 he was talking about pit bulls and the USA Today said, 1:10:43.080 --> 1:10:46.040 if you John Bernhal, the guy who's Punisher in The 1:10:46.080 --> 1:10:48.920 New Spider Man and in The Odyssey, said if you're 1:10:48.960 --> 1:10:54.120 scared of pit bulls, it's just racism. It's just dog racism. 1:10:54.200 --> 1:10:59.800 He said, it's just dog racism. He says, to be 1:10:59.840 --> 1:11:02.280 a afraid of a breed of dog is completely ridiculous. 1:11:02.320 --> 1:11:04.120 It's like being afraid of somebody for the race or 1:11:04.120 --> 1:11:05.320 their sexual orientation. 1:11:05.640 --> 1:11:06.920 It's completely ridiculous. 1:11:07.240 --> 1:11:09.040 Look, if a pit bull bites you, it's gonna suck. 1:11:09.080 --> 1:11:10.439 But they're no more likely to bite you than a 1:11:10.520 --> 1:11:13.080 chihuahua or another breed. I don't want to get into 1:11:13.080 --> 1:11:15.960 pit bull talk, but that's the kind of dumb stuf 1:11:16.000 --> 1:11:18.240 where it's like, hey, if you're scared of pit bulls, 1:11:19.160 --> 1:11:25.960 you're being dog racist. It's so weird. Take I don't 1:11:25.960 --> 1:11:28.320 know what to make of that. I will only tell 1:11:28.360 --> 1:11:30.520 you if there was somebody who told me like, I'm 1:11:30.600 --> 1:11:33.839 careful around pipples or I'm careful with my child around pipples, 1:11:33.840 --> 1:11:36.160 I'd be like, Okay, I've met a lot of great pipples, 1:11:36.160 --> 1:11:38.600 a lot of great pit bull owners. But if you 1:11:39.080 --> 1:11:41.880 are a little more hesitant around that because of anecdotal 1:11:41.920 --> 1:11:46.200 situations where pipples were more aggressive and you don't have 1:11:46.240 --> 1:11:48.559 good experiences with them, you're not the dog racist. 1:11:49.000 --> 1:11:50.120 You're just being smart. 1:11:50.200 --> 1:11:50.400 You know. 1:11:50.600 --> 1:11:56.760 Yeah, your past is prologue, right, so your situation is 1:11:56.800 --> 1:11:59.200 something you should learn from. And if you want to 1:11:59.240 --> 1:12:01.160 think that pit bulls another breeder ones that you like 1:12:01.200 --> 1:12:03.880 to stay away from, that's totally fine. It's pretty doping 1:12:03.920 --> 1:12:05.280 to say something's dog racist. 1:12:06.200 --> 1:12:10.120 So John burnhal is trying to say that, like, uh, 1:12:10.320 --> 1:12:12.880 you could just take what people say about pit bulls 1:12:13.240 --> 1:12:15.840 and just plug in another race because they're basically saying 1:12:15.960 --> 1:12:16.679 racist things. 1:12:16.840 --> 1:12:17.040 Yeah. 1:12:17.160 --> 1:12:20.200 Yeah, if you are against pit bulls, or you're you're 1:12:20.280 --> 1:12:24.519 fearful even fearful of pit bulls, you are a dog racist. 1:12:25.200 --> 1:12:27.920 You are a dog racist. I'm sure there's somebody out 1:12:27.920 --> 1:12:30.880 there that doesn't like Cavalier King Charles Spaniels. I think 1:12:30.880 --> 1:12:33.520 you're crazy. My experience with him is great. 1:12:33.680 --> 1:12:36.040 But if you had I walked to the other side 1:12:36.040 --> 1:12:37.439 of the street when I see this and. 1:12:37.439 --> 1:12:41.200 We see lady over there, Hey, if I if I 1:12:41.240 --> 1:12:43.840 saw somebody was like, I knew somebody who had one 1:12:43.880 --> 1:12:45.400 of these, and it bit me three times and it's 1:12:45.439 --> 1:12:46.559 made me wary of them. 1:12:46.560 --> 1:12:49.639 Fine, to make you dog racist, it's weird as hell. 1:12:50.240 --> 1:12:53.840 But I guess he was saying that to the USA today, right, 1:12:53.960 --> 1:12:55.639 or that was in an article in the USA today. 1:12:55.680 --> 1:12:57.680 At least we'll see what you think about that. We're 1:12:57.680 --> 1:13:00.160 gonna take a quick break when we come back. We've 1:13:00.200 --> 1:13:02.639 got the hot sheet on the way.

And 1:15:10.240 --> 1:15:13.000 I don't know if that's because whoever wrote this likes alliteration, 1:15:13.280 --> 1:15:15.839 or they were referring to the fact that Putin himself 1:15:16.280 --> 1:15:21.040 is spearheading this operation. But a Russian onlyfan star has 1:15:21.160 --> 1:15:25.880 dodged prison but been fine. Forty five thousand. Is that 1:15:26.000 --> 1:15:28.799 euros or pounds. I think it's euros forty five thousand. 1:15:28.840 --> 1:15:30.200 How many is that in. 1:15:29.920 --> 1:15:33.479 The USD forty five thousand euros is probably like fifty 1:15:33.520 --> 1:15:34.599 thousand bucks or something. 1:15:34.600 --> 1:15:34.960 I think. 1:15:35.040 --> 1:15:39.000 Yeah, handed a three year ban from the internet completely. 1:15:39.680 --> 1:15:43.760 Sofia Vershinina, twenty one years old, convicted of producing and 1:15:43.760 --> 1:15:48.400 distributing one Yeah she was an onlyfan star. Oh okay, 1:15:48.439 --> 1:15:51.200 so just because she was putting herself out there on 1:15:51.240 --> 1:15:53.920 the internet. A Moscow court convicted her of producing and 1:15:53.960 --> 1:15:58.240 distributing explicit online videos. She's been ordered to pay the 1:15:58.240 --> 1:16:01.479 forty five large she's all. It's been barred from appearing online, 1:16:01.560 --> 1:16:04.200 using the Internet, or from running her digital business for 1:16:04.240 --> 1:16:08.839 three years, in a massive blow to her income. Russian 1:16:08.920 --> 1:16:13.439 prosecutors say she was earning six figures plus from selling 1:16:13.800 --> 1:16:17.000 X rated videos and sold intimate content on Telegram, Messenger 1:16:17.320 --> 1:16:22.439 and living in an elite Moscow skyscraper business.

They're shoving them over to war NonStop and 1:16:33.760 --> 1:16:36.040 they're dying off. I mean, what are they going to 1:16:36.120 --> 1:16:38.040 do for fun over there before they go to war? 1:16:38.160 --> 1:16:38.880 Got al mighty. 1:16:39.000 --> 1:16:42.679 Meanwhile, in the States, if you were holding your breath 1:16:42.720 --> 1:16:47.720 for the sequel to the hugely successful Barbie movie, well 1:16:47.760 --> 1:16:49.800 it's stalling a bit. You know, when a movie makes 1:16:49.840 --> 1:16:51.800 more than one point four billion at the box office 1:16:51.800 --> 1:16:54.240 and earns eight Academy Award nominations, the studio is going 1:16:54.320 --> 1:16:56.639 to want to make a sequel, such is the case 1:16:56.640 --> 1:16:59.479 with Barbie. But time is running out for the studio 1:16:59.560 --> 1:17:02.719 to put Margo Robbie back in pink. A new report 1:17:03.160 --> 1:17:05.559 from The New York Times reveals that Warner Brothers Discovery 1:17:05.600 --> 1:17:10.240 CEO David Zaslav is stalling because he doesn't want to 1:17:10.280 --> 1:17:13.960 approve bigger salaries for Ryan Gosling and Margo Robbie. 1:17:14.160 --> 1:17:16.760 Oh I think you might. If you're gonna do a 1:17:16.800 --> 1:17:18.439 second one, you have to have them, right. 1:17:18.640 --> 1:17:22.120 Yeah, he got to pay. What do you want? What 1:17:22.120 --> 1:17:22.680 are you gonna do? 1:17:22.880 --> 1:17:25.479 He bulked at giving the actors rich deals with profit 1:17:25.520 --> 1:17:28.519 participation for a second film. Gosling was nominated for Best 1:17:28.560 --> 1:17:31.240 Supporting Actor for his role as ken Is, angling to 1:17:31.320 --> 1:17:34.439 raise his pay to twenty million dollars. A Warner brother 1:17:34.439 --> 1:17:36.840 spokesman notes that there was never an agreed upon framework 1:17:37.040 --> 1:17:39.360 that was approved and pulled back. In a rare move, 1:17:39.680 --> 1:17:42.200 Warner Brothers didn't require the stars to commit to sequels, 1:17:42.240 --> 1:17:44.479 as they only signed a one movie deal to land 1:17:44.520 --> 1:17:48.400 Greta Gerwig as the film's director. Barb Barbie had like 1:17:48.400 --> 1:17:51.200 a bunch of false starts over the years and trying 1:17:51.200 --> 1:17:53.840 to get that movie made, but now he doesn't want 1:17:53.920 --> 1:17:56.719 to He doesn't want to approve the bigger salaries. 1:17:57.200 --> 1:18:00.040 And I think the problem. 1:17:59.640 --> 1:18:03.160 That they have on the horizon is that the rights 1:18:03.240 --> 1:18:06.160 to Barbie are going to expire at some point, so 1:18:06.200 --> 1:18:08.479 they need to make the sequel while they still have 1:18:08.520 --> 1:18:10.240 the rights to it, or else they're not gonna be 1:18:10.240 --> 1:18:11.040 able to do it at all. 1:18:11.680 --> 1:18:14.719 So, you know, if you want to see that dark, you're. 1:18:14.600 --> 1:18:17.280 Surprised that those the main people in that movie are 1:18:17.320 --> 1:18:19.240 going to want a lot more money because they know 1:18:19.400 --> 1:18:20.439 what you're going to get out of it. 1:18:20.520 --> 1:18:23.120 Well, of course it was. I mean it was a huge, 1:18:23.200 --> 1:18:25.400 huge hit. Wait, what did I say? One point four billion? 1:18:25.600 --> 1:18:29.240 Just all right, there's a little bit of problems on 1:18:29.320 --> 1:18:30.719 tour for this man. 1:18:30.720 --> 1:18:34.400 All right, chair, Oh, I know this. 1:18:35.160 --> 1:18:40.839 Oh well, we all flowed on modest mouse, modest mouse. 1:18:41.520 --> 1:18:44.559 They have booted guitarist Simon O'Connor from the upcoming of 1:18:44.680 --> 1:18:48.320 North American tour because he was accused of sending inappropriate 1:18:48.360 --> 1:18:52.120 messages to a teenage fan. The indie rock band announced 1:18:52.120 --> 1:18:54.320 Friday that O'Connor, who's in his forties, will not join 1:18:54.360 --> 1:18:57.519 them on the road beginning Tuesday in California. The good 1:18:57.520 --> 1:19:00.439 news is that they got somebody already jumping in to 1:19:00.520 --> 1:19:02.920 play guitar. But on July twenty sixth, though connor was 1:19:02.920 --> 1:19:05.360 accused by a Reddit user who identified themselves as a 1:19:05.360 --> 1:19:08.600 seventeen year old fan, of sending them an erotic image 1:19:09.040 --> 1:19:14.640 and commenting on their bikini pics on Instagram via direct message. 1:19:14.720 --> 1:19:17.400 I just saw the pick that he sent the person 1:19:17.439 --> 1:19:23.879 apparently it's this one. Oh, it's a very large, muscular 1:19:24.760 --> 1:19:26.960 we know that guy. 1:19:27.360 --> 1:19:28.800 Oh that's right, that guy did die. 1:19:29.040 --> 1:19:32.400 Yeah, that was the erotic image. 1:19:32.479 --> 1:19:34.880 This was it. He sent the photo of this guy. 1:19:34.920 --> 1:19:37.599 It's a famous like shock photo of a naked, muscular 1:19:37.640 --> 1:19:40.880 black man. And then the person said, Oh, I'm gonna 1:19:40.880 --> 1:19:42.040 assume that you've been hacked. 1:19:42.240 --> 1:19:47.280 Lol, have a good one. I love your music. Yeah, 1:19:47.320 --> 1:19:49.600 so he won't be on tour with them anymore. The 1:19:49.680 --> 1:19:52.280 user posted a series of screenshots of their alleged conversations 1:19:52.280 --> 1:19:54.160 on the social platform. Said there were sixteen at the 1:19:54.160 --> 1:19:56.280 time of the interaction, and had their date of birth 1:19:56.280 --> 1:20:00.919 listed on their Instagram profile. The user was by suggesting 1:20:01.400 --> 1:20:04.519 O'Connor's account had been hacked. Wish I had was hacked. 1:20:04.520 --> 1:20:06.439 Just at a party last night and looking at everything 1:20:06.439 --> 1:20:10.080 with one eye, you know, O'Connor allegedly replied. Even gave 1:20:10.160 --> 1:20:13.639 him an out and he didn't take it. Scientists have 1:20:13.680 --> 1:20:18.840 done the good work here. They've revealed the most scientifically 1:20:18.880 --> 1:20:22.479 accurate volcano movies ever made. What do you think was 1:20:22.520 --> 1:20:24.920 at the top of the list of all the volcano 1:20:25.040 --> 1:20:27.679 movies the most scientifically accurate? 1:20:27.920 --> 1:20:32.920 Oh man, I don't even know that many volcano movies. 1:20:33.080 --> 1:20:35.880 Does Joe Versus the Volcano have an actual volcano in it? 1:20:36.520 --> 1:20:39.679 Joe Versus the Volcano came in second for least accurate. 1:20:40.200 --> 1:20:43.760 Oh damn, I don't know what's the most accurate. So 1:20:43.800 --> 1:20:44.479 it's so funny. 1:20:44.640 --> 1:20:48.880 The most accurate and the least accurate were like same year, 1:20:49.200 --> 1:20:51.160 like within weeks or months of each other. 1:20:51.560 --> 1:20:51.960 They said. 1:20:51.960 --> 1:20:57.280 The most accurate was Dante's Peak with Sarah Connor the 1:20:57.439 --> 1:21:00.360 Linda Hamilton, the actress that played Sarah Connor and I 1:21:00.520 --> 1:21:05.160 Believe James Bond, one of the James Bonds. And then 1:21:05.160 --> 1:21:07.760 the least accurate, which was at about the same year 1:21:07.760 --> 1:21:11.040 they were they were released almost together, was Volcano with 1:21:11.080 --> 1:21:14.080 Tommy Lee Jones uh Krakatoa of the Final Days in 1:21:14.120 --> 1:21:18.080 Pompeii The Last Day were also among the most accurate 1:21:18.160 --> 1:21:22.320 Volcano movies, according to the scientists. Good Guy Kendrick Lamar 1:21:22.439 --> 1:21:25.640 surprised a seven year old dog attack victim with a 1:21:25.680 --> 1:21:27.160 birthday call over the weekend. 1:21:30.120 --> 1:21:32.240 Was that the call it might have been I don't know. 1:21:32.240 --> 1:21:34.160 That wasn't me.

Our water systems in the 1:23:17.439 --> 1:23:20.320 United States. It's crazy, but there might be something to this. 1:23:20.479 --> 1:23:23.080 We'll figure out exactly what's happening with an expert that's 1:23:23.120 --> 1:23:42.320 coming up next on the news Junkie Sea Line. You 1:23:42.360 --> 1:23:44.599 know as well as I do. The very smart people 1:23:45.040 --> 1:23:48.120 tend to avoid this show, right, the folks who like 1:23:48.479 --> 1:23:50.920 can actually help us out to figure out what's going 1:23:50.920 --> 1:23:51.240 on there. 1:23:52.080 --> 1:23:55.080 They're smart. Yeah, they're like the news junkie. 1:23:56.160 --> 1:23:58.320 So I see this story. It's all over the place 1:23:58.400 --> 1:24:00.600 this weekend. The New York Times. Here's one example of 1:24:00.640 --> 1:24:03.280 it that I'm looking at. It says the United States 1:24:03.360 --> 1:24:08.520 sees Iran as likely behind a cyber attack on Minnesota 1:24:08.600 --> 1:24:12.760 water systems. And there was a lot of buzz out 1:24:12.800 --> 1:24:17.519 there about different cities that thought that their water supply 1:24:17.760 --> 1:24:21.479 was being hacked, and possibly that that water supply was 1:24:21.520 --> 1:24:25.120 being hacked by maybe Iranians. Obviously we're at war with Iran. 1:24:25.160 --> 1:24:28.200 There's a lot going on in that world, but we 1:24:28.240 --> 1:24:29.840 don't know how to work our way through a story 1:24:29.880 --> 1:24:31.479 like this. I don't know who's telling the truth and 1:24:31.520 --> 1:24:34.400 who's not. So let's welcome an expert on the topic, 1:24:34.640 --> 1:24:35.600 Annie Fixler. 1:24:35.720 --> 1:24:38.720 Annie, are you with us? Hi? Good to be with you. 1:24:38.880 --> 1:24:39.759 There she is. Annie. 1:24:40.120 --> 1:24:42.160 First of all, tell people a little bit about who 1:24:42.200 --> 1:24:43.800 you are, what you do, how you know about this 1:24:43.920 --> 1:24:45.960 kind of stuff, if you don't mind, sure. 1:24:46.360 --> 1:24:49.320 So I work at a think tank in Washington, d C. 1:24:49.600 --> 1:24:53.320 We do national security and foreign policy research, and we 1:24:53.360 --> 1:24:57.320 have a team that looks at cybersecurity issues, cyber policy issues, 1:24:57.360 --> 1:25:01.559 critical infrastructure resilience, and so we've been closely watching threats 1:25:01.560 --> 1:25:06.080 to critical infrastructure. And as you noted, they're on were 1:25:06.160 --> 1:25:09.160 with Iran and they pose cyber threats and so this 1:25:09.200 --> 1:25:10.960 is an evolving and concerning story. 1:25:11.280 --> 1:25:14.679 So the thing that we're looking at here is there 1:25:14.760 --> 1:25:18.799 are people hackers somewhere on possibly on behalf of Iran, 1:25:19.400 --> 1:25:22.880 who are hacking actual places in our in our real life, 1:25:22.880 --> 1:25:25.559 and what are the big fears there? Obviously this is 1:25:25.600 --> 1:25:28.880 we're talking about water systems here. Could they could they 1:25:29.000 --> 1:25:31.360 hack a water system and do something so that it 1:25:31.360 --> 1:25:33.880 would actually affect the quality of the water. 1:25:35.120 --> 1:25:39.320 That's certainly the concern. The way they have been attacking 1:25:39.360 --> 1:25:43.040 these systems is deep in what's called operational technology. It 1:25:43.160 --> 1:25:47.479 is the computer systems that control physical processes. So right 1:25:47.520 --> 1:25:51.160 now we've seen them in places that are monitoring water 1:25:51.240 --> 1:25:53.760 quality and some limited operations. 1:25:53.800 --> 1:25:54.839 We haven't yet seen. 1:25:54.640 --> 1:25:58.280 Them touch systems that would affect quality, so we're not 1:25:58.320 --> 1:26:02.040 seeing We're careful to caution people, this is not about 1:26:02.400 --> 1:26:05.559 hackers poisoning your water system, but the threat is real 1:26:05.960 --> 1:26:08.879 and there's a real concern that could be a future problem. 1:26:09.000 --> 1:26:11.960 So securing these systems so that that can't happen is 1:26:12.280 --> 1:26:13.160 of critical importance. 1:26:13.360 --> 1:26:15.479 I heard a couple of people talking about this. Tell 1:26:15.479 --> 1:26:18.639 me if this is true or not. I heard somebody 1:26:18.680 --> 1:26:21.320 saying and stories like this. What you find often is 1:26:21.680 --> 1:26:24.320 this is Minnesota, and it's about the water systems possibly 1:26:24.360 --> 1:26:27.520 being hacked by the Iranian hackers and stuff. But sometimes 1:26:27.640 --> 1:26:31.360 I have heard that there will be They got like 1:26:31.400 --> 1:26:33.720 some monitoring software that's set up so they don't have 1:26:33.800 --> 1:26:35.880 to drive all the way out to a water facility 1:26:36.120 --> 1:26:39.120 and check levels and see stuff. And the monitoring software 1:26:39.120 --> 1:26:41.400 that they have set up maybe is not very secure 1:26:41.439 --> 1:26:44.880 and has like the default password, and when they gain 1:26:44.960 --> 1:26:48.400 access to it. It doesn't take brilliant level hacker, you know, 1:26:48.520 --> 1:26:52.439 hackerman knowledge, it's kind of basic. But they're just looking 1:26:52.439 --> 1:26:55.480 in the right places and then they can't really necessarily 1:26:56.479 --> 1:26:58.559 impact the quality of the water that you're drinking, but 1:26:58.600 --> 1:27:02.680 they can inconvenience the people who are operating those Is 1:27:02.720 --> 1:27:05.640 that what is happening here or is it more or 1:27:05.760 --> 1:27:07.080 is it worse than that? 1:27:07.080 --> 1:27:10.320 That's what's happening right now, and so yes, it's one 1:27:10.400 --> 1:27:13.360 hundred percent an accurate description of what's going on. They 1:27:13.360 --> 1:27:15.479 are getting into systems that are remotely monitored. 1:27:15.520 --> 1:27:16.080 So you don't have a. 1:27:16.120 --> 1:27:19.639 Human in the in you know, walking your waterlines anymore. 1:27:19.640 --> 1:27:22.439 You have remote monitoring, so you have one person who's 1:27:22.479 --> 1:27:25.000 miles and miles away keeping track of what's going on. 1:27:25.320 --> 1:27:27.760 So the hackers are getting into those systems because as 1:27:27.800 --> 1:27:30.120 you said, they've got to fault passwords or some of 1:27:30.120 --> 1:27:35.599 them don't have passwords at all. Yesd Yeah, it's bad. 1:27:36.400 --> 1:27:38.439 And so you know, you can do a search and 1:27:38.479 --> 1:27:41.280 figure out what's connected to the Internet, and so that's 1:27:41.280 --> 1:27:44.599 what they're doing. There's a similar to a Google search, 1:27:44.640 --> 1:27:48.759 it's called a showdown search, and you can identify pieces 1:27:48.800 --> 1:27:51.080 of equipment that are connected to the Internet, and if 1:27:51.080 --> 1:27:53.160 you identify piece of equipment and you know what it's 1:27:53.200 --> 1:27:57.000 default password is. Because there are manuals out there so 1:27:57.040 --> 1:27:59.240 that people can configure their systems, they're supposed to then 1:27:59.360 --> 1:28:01.960 change the default but if they don't, then a hacker 1:28:01.960 --> 1:28:03.960 can use that password and get in. So they are 1:28:04.000 --> 1:28:07.120 affecting the monitoring of the system. They are not affecting 1:28:07.479 --> 1:28:10.720 chemical composition at this stage. Okay, again, I want to 1:28:10.760 --> 1:28:13.320 caution that could happen. That's not what's going on right now. 1:28:13.479 --> 1:28:17.240 When I said chemical composition though, like is does that 1:28:17.320 --> 1:28:19.760 mean one of the concerns that you know, Sean talked 1:28:19.800 --> 1:28:23.280 about facilities that are monitoring water, but there are also 1:28:23.400 --> 1:28:27.800 facilities that treat the water, and like so is one 1:28:27.840 --> 1:28:30.120 of the concerns that like, hey, we put in a 1:28:30.200 --> 1:28:32.880 trace amount of this chemical to make sure the water 1:28:33.000 --> 1:28:35.920 is clean. However, if you were to, you know, type 1:28:35.920 --> 1:28:39.080 in the default password and say we want you know, 1:28:39.120 --> 1:28:41.880 fifty times the amount of that chemical, is that kind 1:28:41.920 --> 1:28:44.840 of the down the road concerns that they could overtreat 1:28:44.920 --> 1:28:47.280 the water or even I mean undertreat it would be 1:28:47.320 --> 1:28:50.439 a problem too. But I would think that overtreating would 1:28:50.479 --> 1:28:53.439 be a big concern as well. 1:28:53.720 --> 1:28:55.840 Right, that's the kind of thing we're concerned about, is 1:28:55.840 --> 1:28:58.400 if you were to affect the chlorine levels, right, you 1:28:58.400 --> 1:29:01.040 want a little bit of chlorine to kill bacteria. You 1:29:01.080 --> 1:29:03.200 don't want a lot of chlorine. So it's that sort 1:29:03.240 --> 1:29:08.400 of yeah, and so there were there was an incident 1:29:08.840 --> 1:29:11.400 about five years ago at this point in Oldsmar, Florida. 1:29:11.479 --> 1:29:12.799 Some of your listeners may remember. 1:29:13.880 --> 1:29:15.840 I think it's still debated whether that was actually an 1:29:15.840 --> 1:29:18.320 outside job or an inside job. It's it's messy when 1:29:18.320 --> 1:29:19.959 it comes to cybersecurity incidents. 1:29:20.360 --> 1:29:21.200 But the concern at. 1:29:21.080 --> 1:29:22.639 The time was that the hackers sort of went into 1:29:22.680 --> 1:29:25.360 the system and said, instead of ten parts per million, 1:29:25.360 --> 1:29:27.960 I would like ten thousand parts per million, Right, So 1:29:28.000 --> 1:29:32.000 that could dramatically, you know, affect and really poison water supply. 1:29:32.120 --> 1:29:32.560 I remember this. 1:29:33.320 --> 1:29:37.040 Yeah, so it's that kind of thing. Again, that's not 1:29:37.320 --> 1:29:39.040 what's precisely happening here. 1:29:39.280 --> 1:29:41.519 No, they've got people down on Oldsmar. They wear shirts 1:29:41.600 --> 1:29:44.880 said Oldsmar was an inside job all the time. 1:29:45.880 --> 1:29:48.200 It was a great conspiracy. Okay, here's let's let's get 1:29:48.240 --> 1:29:51.360 into you. I like how you're being even handed and 1:29:51.360 --> 1:29:53.200 how you're handling all of this well, let's get into 1:29:53.240 --> 1:29:55.639 sort of worst case scenario here. A lot of times 1:29:55.680 --> 1:29:59.280 when people think about hackers, hackers from Russia, hackers from Iran, 1:29:59.360 --> 1:30:02.280 hackers from China, wherever, you know, some some adversary to 1:30:02.280 --> 1:30:04.759 the United States of America, they think about them hacking 1:30:04.800 --> 1:30:08.320 websites or you know, maybe bank accounts or some things 1:30:08.400 --> 1:30:11.440 like that. But in this case, we're talking about infrastructure. 1:30:12.000 --> 1:30:17.080 What would be annie the nightmare situation? Are we talking 1:30:18.040 --> 1:30:19.599 nuclear power plants? 1:30:19.680 --> 1:30:20.040 Are Like? 1:30:20.040 --> 1:30:22.800 What what would be the nightmare situation that they could 1:30:22.840 --> 1:30:25.760 hack into? 1:30:26.240 --> 1:30:28.360 If you want to stick on water, it's wastewater. 1:30:28.760 --> 1:30:33.040 If you have a if you dismantle, disable, corrupt the 1:30:33.080 --> 1:30:37.800 pretty wastewater systems, you can make a city uninhabitable in 1:30:37.840 --> 1:30:40.439 a matter of hours, right, like you have. This is 1:30:40.760 --> 1:30:44.439 really serious stuff. Yeah, So like that's my that's my 1:30:45.080 --> 1:30:46.560 real big scary. 1:30:46.920 --> 1:30:48.920 Give me, give me an example of what could happen there? 1:30:49.280 --> 1:30:52.280 Right, you talk about cholera, like it's that level of 1:30:52.640 --> 1:30:55.120 that kind of public health crisis. You've got to get 1:30:55.120 --> 1:30:58.679 people out of a system where you can't pull sewage 1:30:58.680 --> 1:30:59.360 water out of a. 1:30:59.320 --> 1:31:02.120 System like they would somehow hack in and re route 1:31:02.120 --> 1:31:05.559 sewage water to places where it was with having that 1:31:05.600 --> 1:31:05.880 big of. 1:31:05.880 --> 1:31:09.559 An impact or just you know, slow pumps or things 1:31:09.640 --> 1:31:12.280 like that, so you weren't pumping dirty water out of 1:31:12.280 --> 1:31:17.080 a system. Yeah, precisely how it would work. Like, I'm 1:31:17.080 --> 1:31:19.600 not a wastewater expert. I'm not sure precisely how you 1:31:19.640 --> 1:31:20.400 would go in there. 1:31:20.240 --> 1:31:21.760 And do it. I also don't want you to waste 1:31:21.800 --> 1:31:22.360 water expert. 1:31:22.400 --> 1:31:23.759 I don't know if we needed to give the advice 1:31:23.800 --> 1:31:27.040 to the bad people who want to pull this off, right, 1:31:27.080 --> 1:31:28.519 that might be let's. 1:31:28.400 --> 1:31:29.360 Not give them any ideas. 1:31:29.400 --> 1:31:31.599 So a lot of people are saying, why are these 1:31:31.640 --> 1:31:34.160 things connected to the Internet at all? If they just 1:31:34.200 --> 1:31:36.760 turned off the Internet connectivity, then that nobody would be 1:31:36.800 --> 1:31:38.840 able to hack into these things and we wouldn't have 1:31:38.920 --> 1:31:40.920 the worry. Is there a reason for that to be 1:31:40.960 --> 1:31:41.400 the case? 1:31:42.200 --> 1:31:46.000 Yes, we have connected all these devices to the Internet 1:31:46.400 --> 1:31:48.559 because it's a lot more efficient if you have one 1:31:48.600 --> 1:31:52.120 person monitoring seventy sites as opposed to I don't know 1:31:52.160 --> 1:31:54.760 ten people each with seven. Right, the more you could 1:31:54.760 --> 1:31:57.720 do remote monitoring, the fewer people you need to run 1:31:57.760 --> 1:32:00.599 a system. And so over the nine these in early 1:32:00.640 --> 1:32:05.320 two thousands, we digitized everything. We just also didn't install 1:32:05.360 --> 1:32:09.120 the security procedures and security controls that we should have 1:32:09.280 --> 1:32:11.840 installed at that time, and now we're seeing the result 1:32:11.920 --> 1:32:15.680 of that. So there's a way to do remote monitoring securely. 1:32:15.920 --> 1:32:19.360 It's just you need strong passwords, you need firewalls, you 1:32:19.360 --> 1:32:23.080 know multi factor authentication, right, you want an operator to 1:32:23.080 --> 1:32:24.720 have to sort of jump through multiple hoops to make 1:32:24.760 --> 1:32:28.840 sure they're connected correctly. That not just any schmow with 1:32:28.880 --> 1:32:32.080 a computer can get there. You want the operator to 1:32:32.120 --> 1:32:34.720 have access and no one else. And the problem is 1:32:34.760 --> 1:32:37.120 we haven't installed those protections along the way. 1:32:37.360 --> 1:32:41.280 What about things Annie, like you know, your your power 1:32:41.439 --> 1:32:44.760 grid or your things as simple as like hacking into 1:32:44.760 --> 1:32:48.160 the street lights and these sorts of things. Has there 1:32:48.240 --> 1:32:51.720 been any thing like that that historically has happened that 1:32:51.840 --> 1:32:54.160 we should be worried that that could be something that 1:32:54.160 --> 1:32:55.960 these nefarious hackers could do. 1:32:56.720 --> 1:33:00.680 Sure, so the I don't know if we specific in 1:33:00.680 --> 1:33:02.479 street lights. I got to sort of wrap my brain 1:33:02.520 --> 1:33:04.040 on that one. But we are seeing a lot of 1:33:04.080 --> 1:33:08.720 attempts to compromise the electric grid. Two particular incidents come 1:33:08.760 --> 1:33:09.200 to mind. 1:33:09.520 --> 1:33:10.360 The first is. 1:33:13.040 --> 1:33:18.080 Late last year Russia compromised a number of uh what 1:33:18.120 --> 1:33:22.400 are called distributed energy resources renewable energy and things like 1:33:22.439 --> 1:33:25.160 that in Poland, and they actually were able to get 1:33:25.160 --> 1:33:28.920 into the system in such a way that they disrupted 1:33:28.960 --> 1:33:34.839 operation of those particular facilities of the generation from those technologies. Luckily, 1:33:35.720 --> 1:33:38.120 you know, it didn't crash Poland's electric grid, but it 1:33:38.160 --> 1:33:41.480 did have some significant impacts on the operation of those facilities, 1:33:41.760 --> 1:33:44.040 so sort of proven that it's possible. 1:33:44.439 --> 1:33:45.479 The other thing we've. 1:33:45.320 --> 1:33:48.160 Seen over the past couple of years is that China 1:33:48.360 --> 1:33:52.080 is at least according to the US intelligence community, pre 1:33:52.200 --> 1:33:55.719 positioning capabilities to disrupt energy generation. 1:33:56.120 --> 1:33:57.280 So what that means is. 1:33:57.240 --> 1:34:00.880 We're basically seeing hackers sitting on the network, but they're 1:34:00.880 --> 1:34:02.720 not sitting on the network in a place that would 1:34:02.760 --> 1:34:06.160 be useful from an intelligence perspective. They're sitting in a 1:34:06.160 --> 1:34:08.120 place in the network where if they wanted to flip 1:34:08.120 --> 1:34:11.320 a switch, they could cause a disruption. And so that 1:34:11.479 --> 1:34:13.960 is really concerning because we know they're there, we just 1:34:14.000 --> 1:34:16.679 don't know exactly everywhere where they are. 1:34:16.920 --> 1:34:19.799 Well, when with a story about the water plants being 1:34:19.920 --> 1:34:22.680 hacked around the United States, specifically in Minnesota, the New 1:34:22.720 --> 1:34:26.280 York Times having all these stories up, where is your 1:34:27.320 --> 1:34:28.839 internal alarm system? 1:34:28.880 --> 1:34:29.240 Are you? 1:34:29.479 --> 1:34:32.360 Are you on edge that there could be something big 1:34:32.439 --> 1:34:35.599 that happens where we go, Oh, we haven't really been 1:34:35.640 --> 1:34:39.439 worried about hackers having such a physical impact on our lives, 1:34:39.479 --> 1:34:41.920 but we are, like, do you think we're really close 1:34:42.000 --> 1:34:43.440 to that nightmare situation? 1:34:45.160 --> 1:34:46.120 I don't know for close. 1:34:46.160 --> 1:34:48.120 I really hope this is the wake up call, right, 1:34:48.320 --> 1:34:52.800 the story about China prepositioning capabilities that was like three 1:34:52.920 --> 1:34:55.240 four years ago. At this point, those of us in 1:34:55.240 --> 1:34:57.760 the cybersecurity world, we're sort of pulling our hair out, 1:34:58.240 --> 1:35:01.080 and it wasn't getting the level of sort of national 1:35:01.120 --> 1:35:05.160 attention that all of us thought needed to happen because 1:35:05.280 --> 1:35:06.360 nothing had gone boom. 1:35:06.800 --> 1:35:07.000 Right. 1:35:07.120 --> 1:35:09.559 What's happening now is that we're actually seeing impacts. So 1:35:09.640 --> 1:35:11.479 I hope that what that means is that we start 1:35:11.479 --> 1:35:15.160 paying attention and we actually start securing these systems. So 1:35:16.120 --> 1:35:17.880 hopefully that this is you know, Canary and the coal 1:35:17.960 --> 1:35:19.080 mine cours source situation. 1:35:19.320 --> 1:35:21.639 Yeah, I mean that sounds that seems like the obvious 1:35:21.680 --> 1:35:23.840 thing to me. I hope there's people listening to you. 1:35:23.920 --> 1:35:27.960 I'm sure there are. Annie Fixler from the Foundation for 1:35:28.240 --> 1:35:32.479 Defense of Democracies very smart. She knows about all things 1:35:32.560 --> 1:35:36.720 cyber technology and Iran and the cross section of all 1:35:36.720 --> 1:35:38.800 of those things brings us to a story like this. 1:35:40.240 --> 1:35:41.960 Thank you, Annie, I appreciate the time. 1:35:42.560 --> 1:35:44.000 Thanks so much for having me there. 1:35:44.040 --> 1:35:46.720 She goes, and this is like, this is one of 1:35:46.760 --> 1:35:48.880 those things that people don't consider. You usually think about 1:35:48.880 --> 1:35:52.360 somebody hacking like the White House dot gov website or 1:35:52.360 --> 1:35:55.240 taking that down. These are like, if somebody hacks our 1:35:55.320 --> 1:35:58.519 sewage systems, our water systems and has an impact on 1:35:58.560 --> 1:36:03.080 an entire city, people will be freaking out. Yeah. 1:36:03.200 --> 1:36:04.240 I don't even want to consider that. 1:36:04.280 --> 1:36:06.080 But as she's talking about, and I think she's right 1:36:06.080 --> 1:36:09.439 to say it, you can make a place inhabitable in 1:36:09.600 --> 1:36:11.360 just a matter of you know, not not even that 1:36:11.560 --> 1:36:14.400 much time. It was pretty crazy. So there we go. 1:36:14.520 --> 1:36:17.439 She was very nice to talk to. Annie Fixler. Thank 1:36:17.520 --> 1:36:20.400 you for your time. Quick break. When we come back, 1:36:20.400 --> 1:36:22.200 we'll see what you think about all of this. We'll 1:36:22.200 --> 1:36:24.800 get to more details on that in and out situation. 1:36:25.160 --> 1:36:26.960 One of my favorite stories. 1:36:26.520 --> 1:36:26.880 Of the day. 1:36:26.960 --> 1:36:28.599 Going to lead us off. We got to figure out 1:36:28.600 --> 1:36:30.720 what happened, and I need your help to do so. 1:36:30.840 --> 1:36:49.479 That is coming up next on the news Junkie. I 1:36:49.520 --> 1:36:52.120 saw this weekend that that story was out there about 1:36:52.200 --> 1:36:54.960 the water plant. Sound was like, my guess is that 1:36:55.040 --> 1:36:56.920 this is not nearly as complicated. 1:36:57.280 --> 1:36:58.479 I kind of lied to her a little bit. I 1:36:58.479 --> 1:36:59.440 didn't hear a conversation. 1:36:59.680 --> 1:37:02.960 It was just my guess was that this was about 1:37:03.120 --> 1:37:08.080 the interconnected systems where people were trying to monitor water 1:37:08.200 --> 1:37:11.320 levels and such from far away, and then there's just 1:37:11.479 --> 1:37:14.320 people don't change the password, even when it's like a 1:37:14.400 --> 1:37:17.240 water dreaming facility. You're like, just change the password a 1:37:17.280 --> 1:37:19.880 little bit, just like put a dollar signs in your 1:37:20.000 --> 1:37:23.400 s's or something. Just something to make it harder for 1:37:23.520 --> 1:37:26.000 Iranian hackers to hack into our water supply. 1:37:26.080 --> 1:37:26.360 Please. 1:37:26.439 --> 1:37:28.200 She did low key tell me about a website I 1:37:28.240 --> 1:37:30.320 had never heard of before. Though, Well, what I. 1:37:30.280 --> 1:37:32.160 Heard her say, like the way to search things that 1:37:32.200 --> 1:37:32.759 I didn't. 1:37:32.600 --> 1:37:36.720 Yeah, some to search for Internet connected devices? 1:37:36.840 --> 1:37:38.519 Are you searching Internet connected gus? 1:37:38.640 --> 1:37:39.080 Is a hack? 1:37:39.200 --> 1:37:40.280 What are you hacking right now? 1:37:40.360 --> 1:37:43.320 I haven't hacked anything yet, but I know the default password. 1:37:43.640 --> 1:37:45.080 You guys heard that, he said? Yet? 1:37:45.920 --> 1:37:48.000 Did you hear we were talking during the break sea line. 1:37:48.000 --> 1:37:49.280 Did you hear about Zach Brown band? 1:37:49.320 --> 1:37:52.040 You know them? Right? Yeah? Okay? Did you did you 1:37:52.080 --> 1:37:53.640 have this in the hot sheet or down? No? 1:37:53.680 --> 1:37:57.680 I did not, Okay Zach Brown Band played their fifteenth 1:37:57.920 --> 1:38:01.760 straight sold out concert at Fenway Park in Boston last night. 1:38:01.840 --> 1:38:06.720 Okay, no, I did he did the Oprah thing right? Yeah? Yeah. 1:38:06.720 --> 1:38:11.200 So there's thirty seven thousand fans at Fenway Park and 1:38:11.800 --> 1:38:14.639 Zach Brown band guy comes out and he says, I'm 1:38:14.640 --> 1:38:17.719 buying every single person here a cruise for two people 1:38:18.240 --> 1:38:21.679 on the Margarita vill at Sea cruise ship. Every person 1:38:21.760 --> 1:38:25.280 here a cruise for two people. So thirty seven thousand 1:38:25.280 --> 1:38:27.320 people were there and they all get a plus one. 1:38:27.920 --> 1:38:32.879 So that's seventy four thousand cruise line tickets on Margarita 1:38:32.920 --> 1:38:35.040 vill at Sea. He says, every single person here gets 1:38:35.040 --> 1:38:36.800 a cruise for themselves and a loved one to go 1:38:36.840 --> 1:38:39.280 on the boat. This is the biggest giveaway in history, 1:38:39.360 --> 1:38:43.040 ladies and gentlemen, tonight at Fenway Park. And Zach Brown 1:38:43.160 --> 1:38:45.679 was working with Margarita villet c to do this. It says, 1:38:45.720 --> 1:38:47.599 according to the band, the total cost of the gift 1:38:47.680 --> 1:38:50.200 is more than forty million dollars, all paid for by 1:38:50.280 --> 1:38:50.840 Zach Brown. 1:38:51.800 --> 1:38:54.679 No shot, right, no shot, It's one hundred percent paid 1:38:54.680 --> 1:38:55.519 for it by Zach Brown. 1:38:55.600 --> 1:38:58.360 Yeah, no shot, is Zach Brown? I mean, I'm sure 1:38:58.360 --> 1:39:00.360 he's wealthy, he's done very very well. He's got a 1:39:00.439 --> 1:39:03.360 huge fan base. A little bit chicken fried, right, Yeah, 1:39:03.439 --> 1:39:05.240 we all know it. Cold beer on a Friday night. 1:39:05.280 --> 1:39:09.320 We know the song. But there's no shot he paid 1:39:09.479 --> 1:39:14.400 forty million dollars for everybody plus one to be able 1:39:14.400 --> 1:39:16.639 to go on Margaritaville at see. They must have cut 1:39:16.680 --> 1:39:18.519 him some craze. 1:39:18.600 --> 1:39:22.240 Yeah, they cut him a crazy deal, or they footed 1:39:22.280 --> 1:39:24.000 part of the bill. I mean, I don't know if 1:39:24.000 --> 1:39:26.559 they said that this was like sponsored by anything, but 1:39:26.640 --> 1:39:33.080 I mean the I guess in execution of this giveaway, 1:39:33.800 --> 1:39:37.080 you would have to think that, all right, if somebody 1:39:37.120 --> 1:39:40.040 is sponsoring it, what's in it for them? Like, you know, 1:39:40.360 --> 1:39:42.160 are they putting, you know, putting their logo on the 1:39:42.160 --> 1:39:45.120 side of the cruise ship. So my only thing that 1:39:45.160 --> 1:39:48.519 I could guess would be that just the Margaritaville people 1:39:49.240 --> 1:39:53.000 cut him some insane half price or so deal. 1:39:53.479 --> 1:39:57.160 Yeah even but if it was half priced, twenty million dollars, 1:39:57.640 --> 1:40:00.320 that's a lot just for to give everybody that went 1:40:00.360 --> 1:40:04.240 to your concert or cruise. That's crazy. So I'd love 1:40:04.320 --> 1:40:06.479 to know what he really paid for them. But Zach 1:40:06.560 --> 1:40:09.680 Brown Band fifteen straight sold down a concary, a family park, 1:40:09.680 --> 1:40:11.679 and they say he paid forty million dollars for everybody 1:40:11.680 --> 1:40:14.280 plus one to go on a cruise for two aboard 1:40:14.320 --> 1:40:15.080 Marguerita Villet. 1:40:15.080 --> 1:40:15.360 See. 1:40:15.400 --> 1:40:18.920 If you think about it, it essentially makes the price 1:40:19.000 --> 1:40:22.960 of your cruise the half the price of your concert ticket. Yeah, 1:40:23.000 --> 1:40:24.960 so whatever you got your ticket for, as long as 1:40:24.960 --> 1:40:26.640 you got in the door, you have the ticket, you 1:40:26.640 --> 1:40:28.760 have the proof that you were there or whatever. I 1:40:28.760 --> 1:40:32.000 don't know how they're they're how they're doing that, or 1:40:32.040 --> 1:40:35.880 how they're authenticating people, or how you even claim this prize, 1:40:36.479 --> 1:40:41.400 but I do know that the cruise is probably I mean, 1:40:41.520 --> 1:40:44.280 Margaret Ritaville is on the cheaper side, but probably more 1:40:44.320 --> 1:40:46.200 than the cost of most of the tickets to that show. 1:40:46.280 --> 1:40:49.559 Maybe possibly, it depends on how long of a cruise 1:40:49.600 --> 1:40:50.919 it is, and a lot of stuff. 1:40:51.280 --> 1:40:53.559 But and there's a minimum cruise man. 1:40:54.000 --> 1:40:58.320 Yeah, yeah, it's like a really bargain basement cruise. 1:40:58.439 --> 1:41:00.240 I'll be lucky to give him the case, you know 1:41:00.240 --> 1:41:02.680 about boat route and just like take the Marguerite at 1:41:02.760 --> 1:41:06.479 see out, you know, out to international waters and then cruise. 1:41:07.000 --> 1:41:08.600 But now just let him gamble a little bit and 1:41:08.640 --> 1:41:10.680 then come back. Yeah, it's just for the just for 1:41:10.760 --> 1:41:14.519 a couple hours. All right, let's go a three hour 1:41:14.640 --> 1:41:16.759 tour if you will. Let's go over to this clip 1:41:16.800 --> 1:41:21.360 eight point nine million views. Trump was talking about Japan 1:41:21.680 --> 1:41:23.639 on Air Force one. I hope we can hear him well, 1:41:23.760 --> 1:41:27.200 because sometimes it gets a little rickety with audio on 1:41:27.240 --> 1:41:30.360 Air Force. On Air Force one, it is I hope 1:41:30.520 --> 1:41:33.519 we can hear him, okay, number one. And he does 1:41:33.600 --> 1:41:37.200 love talking about Japan. He's a big Japan fan. But 1:41:37.600 --> 1:41:39.800 this is going pretty viral because of the way he 1:41:39.920 --> 1:41:40.880 put this here is. 1:41:46.560 --> 1:41:52.559 I'll explain, because we have a good relationship with. 1:41:52.560 --> 1:41:56.080 Japan, all right, She said, why is the US intervening 1:41:56.200 --> 1:41:59.040 to support Japan? The United States apparently is buying a 1:41:59.040 --> 1:42:03.480 bunch of Japanese currency to booy their currency on international 1:42:03.520 --> 1:42:06.800 markets and help them. And so Trump's been asked, why 1:42:06.840 --> 1:42:09.360 are we doing this? Why are we buying Japanese currency 1:42:09.400 --> 1:42:09.920 to support it. 1:42:10.200 --> 1:42:14.280 We're very strong, very very strong financially that they are 1:42:14.760 --> 1:42:17.280 if they have a weekending in and they wanted a 1:42:17.320 --> 1:42:19.400 little bit of help, and we're always there for Japan. 1:42:19.479 --> 1:42:22.920 Japan's been very good to us, with the exception of course, 1:42:22.960 --> 1:42:23.639 of Pearl Harbor. 1:42:24.439 --> 1:42:25.080 They were not good. 1:42:27.360 --> 1:42:30.200 Japan has been very good to us, with the exception 1:42:30.320 --> 1:42:31.599 of course of Pearl Harbor. 1:42:32.880 --> 1:42:34.439 Yeah, not that part was not good. 1:42:34.520 --> 1:42:37.920 Just to clarify, although I would argue that was that 1:42:38.120 --> 1:42:39.120 was a while ago. 1:42:40.800 --> 1:42:41.840 That was a while ago. 1:42:42.040 --> 1:42:44.840 And I would also say Trump, where you say, like, 1:42:45.280 --> 1:42:47.800 Japan's been very good to the United States with the 1:42:47.840 --> 1:42:51.559 exception of Pearl Harbor, I would argue that they do have. 1:42:52.479 --> 1:42:54.280 They do have a pretty good claim for US not 1:42:54.320 --> 1:42:58.719 being fantastic to them in the direct aftermath of Pearl Harbor. Yes, 1:42:59.240 --> 1:43:02.519 the Japanese could say, hey, we've you know, we've forgiven 1:43:02.560 --> 1:43:06.439 you for the old atomic bombs you dropped on us, 1:43:06.560 --> 1:43:09.040 so you could you can maybe get over the Pearl 1:43:09.040 --> 1:43:11.880 Harbor thing if you don't mind. That's what he's saying 1:43:11.920 --> 1:43:14.679 there on Air Force one. This doesn't count as back 1:43:14.680 --> 1:43:16.519 on a plane, does it? I don't think so. They're 1:43:16.560 --> 1:43:19.519 back on a plane before we do that, though, Is 1:43:19.560 --> 1:43:21.479 this Is that it for that clip? Because I thought 1:43:21.520 --> 1:43:22.479 there was one more thing. 1:43:22.439 --> 1:43:26.200 That that he says. 1:43:25.200 --> 1:43:28.559 Always it for ja Ben spend very good to us, 1:43:28.600 --> 1:43:30.360 with the exception of course at Pearl Harbor. 1:43:30.640 --> 1:43:32.760 Of course they were not good. 1:43:32.520 --> 1:43:37.599 But he was getting out of that financial benefit, financial benefit. 1:43:37.720 --> 1:43:40.240 We also it's also good for the world economy. 1:43:41.040 --> 1:43:44.080 But we make like when we did with Argentina, I 1:43:44.080 --> 1:43:47.400 got criticized, we made twenty five and what. 1:43:47.400 --> 1:43:47.960 Else do you say? 1:43:49.360 --> 1:43:51.400 And one of these clips, he asked the reporter where 1:43:51.400 --> 1:43:55.719 they from, where they're from, and then he they said ABC, 1:43:55.920 --> 1:43:59.080 and he says BBC and she says no ABC. He goes, oh, no, 1:43:59.200 --> 1:44:01.720 that's even worse, like the BBC better or something like that. 1:44:03.120 --> 1:44:04.400 Does he know that? 1:44:04.960 --> 1:44:05.160 Yeah? 1:44:05.479 --> 1:44:07.360 Right here? Okay, this is this is the clips Land's 1:44:07.360 --> 1:44:07.720 talking about. 1:44:07.800 --> 1:44:10.879 Let's say everybody wants held me from our country. 1:44:12.560 --> 1:44:16.080 The BBC means BBC, BBC, Oh. 1:44:15.960 --> 1:44:20.360 ABC, that's worth I like BBC better than ABCS. 1:44:20.960 --> 1:44:23.280 He doesn't know. He doesn't know what BBC means. 1:44:23.320 --> 1:44:27.360 I don't think somebody talentim Please, good god, mister president. 1:44:27.520 --> 1:44:29.360 I don't know if you know what you just said. 1:44:29.800 --> 1:44:33.559 Yeah, you're gonna get meaned to do oblivion. Okay, Uh, 1:44:33.640 --> 1:44:36.960 let's see. I want to get to a couple year dispatches, 1:44:37.000 --> 1:44:40.479 but I'm hesitant and ahead of them. I'll very quickly 1:44:40.520 --> 1:44:43.479 tell you a story about a woman who's in trouble. 1:44:44.120 --> 1:44:48.479 And this woman had a wedding that was scheduled, all right, 1:44:49.160 --> 1:44:51.720 And they're trying to figure out why this woman did this. 1:44:51.880 --> 1:44:56.519 But I I have some questions myself. So she was 1:44:56.880 --> 1:45:01.400 at a church, Church of Jesus Christ in Latter day 1:45:01.439 --> 1:45:07.639 Saints in Caysville. So oh Mormon, Yeah, Mormon church. And 1:45:08.120 --> 1:45:10.800 here's here's the headline. This is a true story, right, 1:45:10.840 --> 1:45:13.240 this is real. It's from the Salt Lake Tribune. It 1:45:13.320 --> 1:45:16.400 says she was set to get married. The night before 1:45:16.439 --> 1:45:19.080 her wedding, she used the tampon to set fire to 1:45:19.120 --> 1:45:21.360 the Utah church where she was going to get married. 1:45:21.760 --> 1:45:25.600 Police say, and the story about this lady is crazy. 1:45:25.960 --> 1:45:28.240 A woman was arrested and accused of setting fire to 1:45:28.360 --> 1:45:30.920 a meeting house at the Church of Jesus Christ the 1:45:30.960 --> 1:45:32.480 Latter day Saints in Kaysville. 1:45:32.560 --> 1:45:33.800 The hell of a way to let people know you 1:45:33.880 --> 1:45:36.120 got cold feet, it is, police said. 1:45:36.120 --> 1:45:39.240 The twenty five year old stole a lighter and used 1:45:39.240 --> 1:45:42.560 a tampon to start a fire under a chair inside 1:45:42.760 --> 1:45:45.519 the venue. The night before she was going to be 1:45:45.520 --> 1:45:49.360 married in the church. The woman from Wyoming was decorating 1:45:49.400 --> 1:45:51.479 the church with the groom and other family members. 1:45:51.479 --> 1:45:52.080 That evening. 1:45:52.439 --> 1:45:54.280 The group was getting ready to leave for the night, 1:45:54.320 --> 1:45:57.000 and then the fire alarm went off. The group searched 1:45:57.000 --> 1:45:59.559 for flames and found a fire burning in the Women's 1:45:59.600 --> 1:46:02.920 Relief Society room, where somebody used water from some of 1:46:02.960 --> 1:46:05.920 the wedding decorations to help put it out. Another person 1:46:06.000 --> 1:46:09.680 used a fire extinguisher. During the investigation, they said the 1:46:09.680 --> 1:46:12.640 fire appeared to have been started under a chair that 1:46:12.800 --> 1:46:15.800 was stacked against other chairs along the wall. Under one 1:46:15.800 --> 1:46:18.240 of the chairs, there were some items out of the ordinary, 1:46:18.320 --> 1:46:21.080 including what appeared to be a tampon with the active 1:46:21.160 --> 1:46:24.240 applicator on the floor. The groom told police that he 1:46:24.280 --> 1:46:25.880 and the bride to bee had gone to an Ace 1:46:25.960 --> 1:46:28.880 hardware store earlier that day. They go to the Ace 1:46:28.920 --> 1:46:31.320 Hardware they look at the camera footage and they see 1:46:31.600 --> 1:46:34.680 his wife to be stealing two lighters and hiding them 1:46:34.720 --> 1:46:37.840 in her shoes, and she takes the lighters that she 1:46:38.000 --> 1:46:41.439 stole and she goes to the church and she tries 1:46:41.479 --> 1:46:44.040 to set the church on fire. That she's going to 1:46:44.040 --> 1:46:46.960 be married at the next head. When the bride spoke 1:46:47.040 --> 1:46:49.280 with the cops, the officer wrote that she provided a 1:46:49.320 --> 1:46:51.880 different first and last name than her legal name, in 1:46:51.960 --> 1:46:55.439 a different birthday than the day on her Wyoming issued license. 1:46:56.040 --> 1:46:58.640 In an interview on Monday, she acknowledged stealing from the 1:46:58.680 --> 1:47:01.720 hardware store, but wouldn't say what she took. She was 1:47:01.760 --> 1:47:03.559 asked about the lighter, she said she does not carry 1:47:03.560 --> 1:47:05.599 a lighter, does not smoke, nor would she need one. 1:47:05.760 --> 1:47:11.280 She was arrested today on suspicion of aggravated arson, being 1:47:11.320 --> 1:47:14.720 held without bail in the local jail. The officer who 1:47:14.800 --> 1:47:16.680 documented her arrest noted there were five others in the 1:47:16.720 --> 1:47:19.439 building when the fire took place. He said she was 1:47:20.120 --> 1:47:23.719 deceptive and continually took drastic steps to hide her lies. 1:47:24.240 --> 1:47:28.599 The bride, by the way, had not obtained a marriage 1:47:28.640 --> 1:47:30.880 license for her own wedding that was to occur the 1:47:30.920 --> 1:47:34.400 next day, but she lied to everybody saying that she had. 1:47:34.840 --> 1:47:39.360 Yeah, well, you'd think that the groom would have known that. Now, 1:47:39.439 --> 1:47:42.040 I don't know if this is the same everywhere, or 1:47:42.080 --> 1:47:45.680 maybe she didn't tell the groom about this. But I 1:47:45.800 --> 1:47:50.120 had to be there to obtain my wedding license, marriage license. 1:47:50.640 --> 1:47:52.400 I think I even had to go back the second 1:47:52.439 --> 1:47:54.160 time because we lost the first one, so we had 1:47:54.200 --> 1:47:56.440 to go back and get it replaced. 1:47:57.040 --> 1:47:57.680 Yeah, so. 1:47:59.400 --> 1:48:02.040 The groom she have known something was off if he 1:48:02.120 --> 1:48:06.479 hadn't also had not taken part in obtaining any marriage license. 1:48:06.640 --> 1:48:10.479 You want to talk about red flags? Run, Okay, run. 1:48:10.880 --> 1:48:13.799 This is the exact type of Casey Anthony type person 1:48:14.320 --> 1:48:17.599 that you need to run from as fast as you can. 1:48:17.720 --> 1:48:21.200 This is BPD on display, borderline personality disorder. 1:48:21.280 --> 1:48:21.719 Run. 1:48:22.160 --> 1:48:25.599 But I mean, is that even a problem. She obviously 1:48:25.640 --> 1:48:27.080 doesn't want to be married to you. She tried to 1:48:27.080 --> 1:48:28.519 burn the church down. 1:48:28.760 --> 1:48:30.800 Yeah, she did. 1:48:30.840 --> 1:48:32.479 She try to burn the church down to hide the 1:48:32.520 --> 1:48:34.479 fact that she didn't get the marriage license that she. 1:48:34.520 --> 1:48:38.680 Lied about why. I don't know, it's crazy. 1:48:39.200 --> 1:48:41.240 I just think it's clear she doesn't want to be 1:48:41.280 --> 1:48:43.400 married to you, and she's willing to go through some 1:48:43.479 --> 1:48:46.759 extreme lengths. So I don't see it being a very 1:48:47.040 --> 1:48:52.559 difficult process to go, Hey, we're done here, sayonara, good luck. 1:48:53.240 --> 1:48:53.479 Yeah. 1:48:53.520 --> 1:48:56.320 That doesn't end the gate engagement, though it sure should. 1:48:57.120 --> 1:49:03.920 Somebody calls it a menstrual molotov. This is true, that's true. 1:49:04.439 --> 1:49:04.720 All right. 1:49:04.800 --> 1:49:06.160 Rate my blank for this week. 1:49:06.360 --> 1:49:10.200 Your distraction, if you'll play along, is to give us 1:49:10.200 --> 1:49:12.519 your best dad joke. We got to try not to 1:49:12.600 --> 1:49:15.599 laugh at all. We have not really laughed very much 1:49:15.680 --> 1:49:17.880 through the ones that we've received, but there are a 1:49:17.960 --> 1:49:19.840 ton of them, so we're going to work them in 1:49:19.840 --> 1:49:22.200 and the rest of the show here. We'll get some 1:49:22.280 --> 1:49:24.880 of those on right before we do Jury Duty, which 1:49:24.880 --> 1:49:28.120 has details of the in and out situation, and update 1:49:28.160 --> 1:49:31.280 on the THC Drinks. An update on that that is 1:49:31.360 --> 1:49:35.280 twofold if you're interested in following that story. I got 1:49:35.280 --> 1:49:38.519 some new bombshell information and an email coming in that's 1:49:38.520 --> 1:49:57.280 coming up next on the News Junkie, we'll get to 1:49:58.080 --> 1:49:59.960 your rate my blank dad joke. 1:50:00.040 --> 1:50:01.040 So I don't know if any of these are going 1:50:01.120 --> 1:50:01.880 to work. I don't know. 1:50:02.520 --> 1:50:03.960 I don't know how this is going to go this week, 1:50:04.000 --> 1:50:05.800 but we're going to see how it goes as we 1:50:05.880 --> 1:50:08.439 roll along here a bit on the show. Maybe one 1:50:08.479 --> 1:50:10.200 of them will work and make us laugh and then 1:50:10.200 --> 1:50:13.120 that one's the winner. I have no clue. I don't know, 1:50:14.280 --> 1:50:17.559 but I know so far they have been duds. And 1:50:17.600 --> 1:50:20.200 if Sea Lane again can guess your punchline before you 1:50:20.280 --> 1:50:23.479 get to it, then you are not going to be 1:50:23.560 --> 1:50:26.120 up for the product. How Chef's Kiss? Was it that 1:50:26.560 --> 1:50:28.720 the promo that I was calling that guy out for 1:50:28.880 --> 1:50:33.559 actually aired later on in Today's I heard that, Yeah, 1:50:32.880 --> 1:50:35.479 I think we might get more of those if if 1:50:35.520 --> 1:50:37.599 there's any other promos that they can steal from, they'll 1:50:37.640 --> 1:50:38.400 probably do that. 1:50:39.240 --> 1:50:42.160 And some of these are so bad, so bad, one 1:50:42.200 --> 1:50:44.479 of the junkies.

Let me bring this up 1:53:13.120 --> 1:53:16.760 so those on the stream can conceive. Here's the government's 1:53:16.840 --> 1:53:19.920 motion to dismiss the charges against this guy. This dude 1:53:20.000 --> 1:53:23.840 should sue, should sue. You'll see why. 1:53:23.880 --> 1:53:24.360 In a second. 1:53:24.800 --> 1:53:27.720 The United States of America buy and through its attorney, 1:53:27.760 --> 1:53:31.360 the United States Attorney for the District of Columbia, respectfully 1:53:31.439 --> 1:53:34.200 moves to dismiss the indictment in this case. This is 1:53:34.240 --> 1:53:37.559 the person they said destroyed the reflecting pool for the 1:53:37.640 --> 1:53:41.120 reasons set forth here in this case should be dismissed 1:53:41.120 --> 1:53:44.560 without prejudice pursuant to Rule forty eight of the Superior 1:53:44.840 --> 1:53:49.280 Court Rules of Criminal Procedure. The United States submits as follows. 1:53:49.280 --> 1:53:52.080 This is the US government. Based on the initial reports 1:53:52.080 --> 1:53:54.960 provided by the Department of the Interior and the US 1:53:55.040 --> 1:53:58.360 Park Police, The United States Attorney's Office for the District 1:53:58.360 --> 1:54:02.200 of Columbia presented the gretury with evidence that damage to 1:54:02.240 --> 1:54:05.839 the reflecting pool was caused by vandals, including the defendant 1:54:05.880 --> 1:54:08.920 in this case, David Hearn. That's where we were we 1:54:09.000 --> 1:54:11.080 knew that some there's like a dumb drama going on 1:54:11.080 --> 1:54:13.160 about the reflecting pool, and now are they cutting it? 1:54:13.600 --> 1:54:14.519 What's happening? Are we. 1:54:16.080 --> 1:54:18.280 And they're like walked along with a razor and they're 1:54:18.360 --> 1:54:21.320 blaming it on people. And then this is what they 1:54:21.320 --> 1:54:22.880 say in the court case when they asked to drop 1:54:22.920 --> 1:54:26.240 the charges against this Olympian gud. However, it was not 1:54:26.439 --> 1:54:30.280 until after the return of the indictment that the Department 1:54:30.320 --> 1:54:34.640 of Interior provided additional documents indicating that the damage to 1:54:34.680 --> 1:54:38.360 the Lincoln Memorial reflecting Pool in June twenty twenty six 1:54:38.880 --> 1:54:43.120 was the result of flawed installation by the contractor, Atlantic 1:54:43.240 --> 1:54:47.200 Industrial Codings and the rush to complete the project prior 1:54:47.240 --> 1:54:50.800 to the events associated with the America two fifty celebration 1:54:51.280 --> 1:54:54.640 in the week surrounding Independence Day twenty twenty six. It 1:54:54.680 --> 1:54:58.720 was not until after these documents were produced that USAODC 1:54:59.320 --> 1:55:01.839 first became a aware of the information showing the damage 1:55:01.880 --> 1:55:06.320 was a result of a botched installation and not vandalism 1:55:06.360 --> 1:55:10.080 as initially represented by the Department of Interior. So flat 1:55:10.080 --> 1:55:14.440 out they're saying, like we arrested people, We got grand 1:55:14.520 --> 1:55:17.840 jury indictments for people, we were talking about how these 1:55:17.880 --> 1:55:21.360 people had been arrested. And actually the whole time the 1:55:21.400 --> 1:55:24.360 contractor who was doing the reflecting pool was lying to 1:55:24.440 --> 1:55:29.320 us and they botched the installation. Nobody actually cut it up, 1:55:29.480 --> 1:55:32.040 Nobody destroyed it. This guy that they charged with it 1:55:32.080 --> 1:55:33.120 didn't do anything. 1:55:33.400 --> 1:55:34.080 I don't think nobody. 1:55:34.080 --> 1:55:36.280 I don't think we ever thought that he cut it up. 1:55:36.880 --> 1:55:40.400 They said he cut it up. They said, I don't 1:55:40.400 --> 1:55:42.200 think I never thought he cut it up. 1:55:42.480 --> 1:55:44.800 If I was an attorney that could take on a 1:55:44.840 --> 1:55:47.640 case of this size, I would think they had a 1:55:47.640 --> 1:55:51.520 pretty good case here. They just arrested this dude and 1:55:51.640 --> 1:55:53.640 charged him with cutting up the reflecting pool, and then 1:55:53.680 --> 1:55:58.360 they I said, afterwards, whoopsie. Actually it was the people 1:55:58.440 --> 1:56:01.000 who were charging us millions and millions of dollars as 1:56:01.080 --> 1:56:04.240 taxpayers to do this work on the reflecting pool, and 1:56:04.280 --> 1:56:05.879 it wasn't actually the guy we arrested. 1:56:06.080 --> 1:56:08.720 Not a day for Atlantic Industrial Coding or whatever. 1:56:10.040 --> 1:56:12.640 AI see, yeah, a, I see, having a bad day 1:56:13.240 --> 1:56:17.680 on the Nancy Guthrie front. They finally released the two 1:56:17.840 --> 1:56:20.080 ransom notes in this case. Here they are, I'm going 1:56:20.120 --> 1:56:22.720 to read them to you. The first ransom note that 1:56:22.800 --> 1:56:27.240 came in was to kold News. This came in from 1:56:27.240 --> 1:56:31.520 the news tip form on their website. The first message 1:56:31.560 --> 1:56:35.240 from the kidnappers of Nancy Guthrie said, Hello, Savannah, we 1:56:35.320 --> 1:56:38.440 have your mother Nancy. She's safe but scared. She will 1:56:38.440 --> 1:56:41.120 be held for ransom and once payment is received she'll 1:56:41.120 --> 1:56:43.680 be released unharmed. We will be holding her for a 1:56:43.680 --> 1:56:46.879 maximum of seven days. You will need to send bitcoin 1:56:46.920 --> 1:56:50.080 in the amount of four million usd before five pm 1:56:50.120 --> 1:56:53.000 on Thursday the fifth. If payment is not received, the 1:56:53.080 --> 1:56:56.080 ransom will be increased to six million US dollars, which 1:56:56.120 --> 1:56:58.240 will need to be paid by five pm on Monday 1:56:58.280 --> 1:57:01.520 the ninth. Once payment is recive the bitcoin address below, 1:57:01.840 --> 1:57:04.600 she'll be released within twelve hours of deposit to a 1:57:04.640 --> 1:57:08.360 safe drop off location in Tucson, Arizona. If payment is 1:57:08.400 --> 1:57:10.640 not received by the last deadline on Monday the night 1:57:10.720 --> 1:57:13.720 at five pm, she will be killed. Your mother is 1:57:13.760 --> 1:57:15.680 aware of this and her life is in your hands. 1:57:15.880 --> 1:57:17.680 It isn't the best interest of everyone to have this 1:57:17.760 --> 1:57:20.200 completed as soon as possible. You will not be able 1:57:20.240 --> 1:57:22.760 to contact me from here on out. There will be 1:57:22.840 --> 1:57:26.320 no negotiation. Do not play games. Law enforcement will not 1:57:26.400 --> 1:57:29.080 be able to help you. Then they block out some 1:57:29.160 --> 1:57:32.440 of the identification and then the bitcoin address, and they 1:57:32.520 --> 1:57:35.960 said the person left this message she had a white 1:57:36.000 --> 1:57:38.440 smart watch on the floor of the foot of her 1:57:38.480 --> 1:57:42.360 bed and a white floodlight in the backyard was destroyed. 1:57:42.960 --> 1:57:45.720 So that was supposed to be the information that proved Hey, 1:57:45.760 --> 1:57:48.839 these people must have known. That was on February second. 1:57:49.240 --> 1:57:52.360 Is there any way anybody would have known about the 1:57:52.440 --> 1:57:55.080 smart watch on the floor, I don't know, or the 1:57:55.880 --> 1:57:56.400 flood light. 1:57:56.840 --> 1:57:57.520 I don't know, mate. 1:57:57.560 --> 1:58:02.000 Possibly that was on February second. On February sixth, after 1:58:02.160 --> 1:58:06.640 the first deadline, they sent another message and it said, 1:58:06.760 --> 1:58:10.680 Guthrie family, we did not fully grasp the seriousness of 1:58:10.840 --> 1:58:14.160 her physical condition. We they're using we here a lot. 1:58:14.440 --> 1:58:17.480 We never intended to hurt her talking about Nancy Guthrie. 1:58:17.480 --> 1:58:20.200 That was not our intention. She perished shortly after she 1:58:20.320 --> 1:58:23.200 was taken. We believe it was heart related. She is 1:58:23.280 --> 1:58:24.360 buried in nature. 1:58:24.440 --> 1:58:24.680 Now. 1:58:25.160 --> 1:58:27.480 Nothing you could have done could have changed the outcome. 1:58:27.840 --> 1:58:29.920 We want your family to know this and hope you 1:58:29.960 --> 1:58:33.280 can all find peace. We are truly sorry. So that 1:58:33.440 --> 1:58:36.040 was the second message. The rest of them to TMZ 1:58:36.160 --> 1:58:38.520 were all fake nonsense. They knew it the whole time, 1:58:39.280 --> 1:58:44.080 but yeah, I mean the second one's kind of interesting putting. 1:58:44.120 --> 1:58:46.640 We never intended to hurt her, that was not our intention. 1:58:48.160 --> 1:58:50.160 The first message you sent said you would kill her 1:58:50.200 --> 1:58:53.760 if you didn't get the millions of dollars, So there 1:58:53.800 --> 1:58:56.200 was definitely an intent to possibly hurt her at some 1:58:56.320 --> 1:58:59.120 point in time. But they finally released those and the 1:58:59.160 --> 1:59:02.120 Wall Street Journal this weekend, as I mentioned, had an 1:59:02.400 --> 1:59:06.560 article about how bad this dopey ass sheriff completely botched 1:59:06.560 --> 1:59:11.320 this case. Just an absolute dereliction of dirt duty on 1:59:11.360 --> 1:59:12.160 this guy's part. 1:59:12.200 --> 1:59:15.000 This stupid sheriff what's his name? Sheriff? Oh god, what's 1:59:15.000 --> 1:59:15.360 his name? 1:59:15.640 --> 1:59:18.040 Oh let's see say, well find that real quick. I 1:59:18.040 --> 1:59:21.560 know we're late for break, but that sheriff sheriff duty. 1:59:21.600 --> 1:59:24.800 This this guy out there who was involved in this 1:59:24.880 --> 1:59:27.760 whole case with the Savannah Gouverner and anteguthri thing. 1:59:27.840 --> 1:59:28.680 Sheriff Nanos. 1:59:28.880 --> 1:59:32.560 What a catastrophe, What a joke, What a joke this 1:59:32.640 --> 1:59:37.160 guy was, Chris Nanos, absolutely an embarrassment to law enforcement, 1:59:37.240 --> 1:59:39.000 that guy, and the Wall Street Journal lays out all 1:59:39.040 --> 1:59:40.640 of the things that they missed in their little po 1:59:40.680 --> 1:59:43.320 dunk investigation. All right, quick break, when we come back 1:59:43.320 --> 1:59:45.840 we kick off The Power Hour. I'll give you that 1:59:45.920 --> 1:59:48.600 update in the Power Hour about the THHC drink band 1:59:49.000 --> 1:59:51.480 and a whole lot more, including a pick aside before 1:59:51.480 --> 1:59:54.000 we wrap it up today The Power Hour. It's coming 1:59:54.080 --> 2:00:12.480 up next on the News Junkie. Got an interesting piece 2:00:12.520 --> 2:00:16.160 of news for you about the show tomorrow. In the meantime, 2:00:16.240 --> 2:00:19.160 Mike emails Tips at the News Junkie dot com. Mike says, 2:00:19.160 --> 2:00:21.760 I'm down here in West Palm Beach. Hey, Mike, Hey, 2:00:21.800 --> 2:00:24.560 folks down here in West Palm. I can tell you 2:00:24.600 --> 2:00:27.400 over the last few weeks out west, the water has 2:00:27.480 --> 2:00:30.280 so much chlorine in it. You guys were talking about 2:00:30.280 --> 2:00:32.760 the water supply possibly being hacked with the expert lady. 2:00:33.120 --> 2:00:36.920 It smells like pool water here. It's eased up over 2:00:36.960 --> 2:00:39.480 the last week, but it makes me wonder what's in 2:00:39.560 --> 2:00:42.720 the lines that needs that much disinfecting to get the 2:00:42.880 --> 2:00:46.000 call OFFORM numbers at acceptable levels, says Mike. 2:00:46.080 --> 2:00:48.040 Thank you for the email, Mike, appreciate that. 2:00:48.600 --> 2:00:51.120 Somebody else says, have you seen the video of this 2:00:51.160 --> 2:00:54.120 woman who has kicked off a flight for preaching? 2:00:54.880 --> 2:00:57.080 We told you this was happening out there. 2:00:57.440 --> 2:01:04.000 This woman seems obnoxious, though I've seen this video, and yeah, 2:01:04.760 --> 2:01:07.240 I mean we talked about the preaching on the plane 2:01:07.800 --> 2:01:09.960 and whether or not that was going to happen, or 2:01:10.320 --> 2:01:12.560 that being a captive audience even more so than a 2:01:12.560 --> 2:01:16.040 subway car, because subway cars stop a lot more frequently 2:01:16.120 --> 2:01:20.160 than planes. Yeah, but yeah, this They had this woman. 2:01:20.240 --> 2:01:22.280 I think one of one of her videos was in Orlando, 2:01:22.320 --> 2:01:24.440 because I think they might have kicked her out in Orlando. 2:01:25.200 --> 2:01:29.400 And but some of the comments were like, yeah, she's 2:01:29.440 --> 2:01:33.160 preaching it all, but she's also very attention seeking, control 2:01:34.040 --> 2:01:37.640 trolling a lot of her videos. I only saw the 2:01:37.640 --> 2:01:40.440 one that was going viral. Now should I play this? Yeah, 2:01:40.720 --> 2:01:42.920 let me see here. Here's the video he sent over. 2:01:43.080 --> 2:01:45.120 This is one of them from this woman who got 2:01:45.240 --> 2:01:47.240 kicked off the fight for preaching. I told you this 2:01:47.440 --> 2:01:49.840 was a spreading thing and a bunch of people go, 2:01:50.280 --> 2:01:53.000 there's no better place with a captive audience than on 2:01:53.080 --> 2:01:53.520 a plane. 2:01:53.560 --> 2:01:55.880 And people started to stand up and preach. 2:01:55.680 --> 2:01:59.720 Their their word of their God, their gospel, you know 2:01:59.720 --> 2:02:03.959 whatever on these flights. And I said, this is quite obnoxious. 2:02:04.000 --> 2:02:06.800 People don't like that type of stuff.

He rose again in 2:02:31.120 --> 2:02:34.560 three days. He's alive and he's the one true God. 2:02:35.040 --> 2:02:38.440 But the wages of our sin is death, hell forever. 2:02:39.120 --> 2:02:42.160 Apart from Jesus, we won't make it to heaven. 2:02:42.520 --> 2:02:46.560 But when she says hell forever, it's unlike she's pro 2:02:46.640 --> 2:02:51.040 hell just for a second there, like hell forever.

You're like, I thought we 2:04:59.080 --> 2:05:02.360 had freedom of speed, and you go, yeah, does it 2:05:02.440 --> 2:05:05.520 occur to you that freedom of speech doesn't allow you 2:05:06.480 --> 2:05:09.040 to say whatever you want to the captive audience on 2:05:09.120 --> 2:05:12.360 a plane stuck on the tarmac, that maybe those people 2:05:12.960 --> 2:05:15.600 are going to operate under the rules and regulations of 2:05:15.680 --> 2:05:18.520 what the aircraft and airline are suggesting is the right 2:05:18.600 --> 2:05:20.800 thing to do at that time, and that the whole 2:05:20.880 --> 2:05:22.360 world doesn't revolve around you. 2:05:22.480 --> 2:05:25.160 Have you ever considered that freedom of speech? 2:05:25.920 --> 2:05:28.800 Okay, freedom of speech next time you really want to 2:05:28.840 --> 2:05:30.920 exercise your freedom of speech. And I'm the biggest free 2:05:31.000 --> 2:05:33.000 speech person you'll ever meet in your life. But I'm 2:05:33.160 --> 2:05:36.360 actually a free speech person. But freedom and diversity of 2:05:36.440 --> 2:05:39.120 opinions right without punishment in so many cases. 2:05:39.440 --> 2:05:42.680 But it doesn't mean that you could do stuff like this. 2:05:42.760 --> 2:05:44.760 You can't go to somebody's funeral that you don't know 2:05:45.720 --> 2:05:47.480 and walk up to the microphone and be like, I 2:05:47.560 --> 2:05:50.640 don't know this guy, but I bet he sucked.

That's not what freedom of speech is about. 2:05:59.360 --> 2:06:03.640 To begin with spiritual warfare shown, spiritual war warfare. 2:06:03.320 --> 2:06:07.520 With that he because demons don't like the name of Jesus. Yeah, 2:06:07.960 --> 2:06:10.760 but it's not unsafe to talk about the gospel. 2:06:10.880 --> 2:06:11.280 I didn't know. 2:06:11.960 --> 2:06:13.560 Is that a crime? Is it against the law? 2:06:14.800 --> 2:06:16.760 Can you tell me that? Is it? 2:06:17.680 --> 2:06:17.840 Oh? 2:06:17.960 --> 2:06:19.240 God, can you tell us? 2:06:19.840 --> 2:06:24.640 She's also like, she sounds like somebody who's I uh 2:06:24.920 --> 2:06:28.800 like kind of having an interaction with the police, Like 2:06:28.920 --> 2:06:29.880 what am I being charged with? 2:06:30.040 --> 2:06:31.960 It's like, Hey, that's not how this works. Are you 2:06:32.040 --> 2:06:33.720 detaining me? We told you to get off the plane. 2:06:33.760 --> 2:06:35.480 You get off the plane. That's how this works. This 2:06:35.640 --> 2:06:37.800 is not We're not policemen. We are the We are 2:06:37.840 --> 2:06:40.320 the people that are in charge of this aircraft. It's 2:06:40.360 --> 2:06:42.400 time for you to get your ass off. Well, we'll 2:06:42.480 --> 2:06:44.600 let this be a pick aside for you folks as well. 2:06:44.640 --> 2:06:47.080 What do you think the lady on the plane free speech? 2:06:47.600 --> 2:06:49.440 She should be able to say what she wants, including 2:06:49.840 --> 2:06:52.200 talking about her God and spreading the word of her 2:06:52.280 --> 2:06:54.840 God to the other passengers on the plane. Or no, 2:06:55.040 --> 2:06:57.000 I don't have to be subjected to this. I'm stuck 2:06:57.520 --> 2:06:59.960 in this plane right now, and this is an absolute disaster. 2:07:00.640 --> 2:07:03.840 Consider that, while we do the Power Hour. 2:07:05.120 --> 2:07:09.760 They said it couldn't be done. Then they said, Holy 2:07:09.960 --> 2:07:12.480 if I want, I'm so had. My wife's gonna be 2:07:12.640 --> 2:07:17.280 better now the time for the Power Hour on the news. 2:07:17.240 --> 2:07:22.160 Relations I mean, look, at least things are looking up 2:07:22.200 --> 2:07:25.160 this week. Yeah, I thought I thought that things would 2:07:25.200 --> 2:07:28.240 be set for failure when you said we shouldn't open 2:07:28.320 --> 2:07:30.480 with a clip we opened up with today. Oh, but 2:07:31.520 --> 2:07:33.240 you know, at least this is good. This is good 2:07:33.280 --> 2:07:35.440 news in some way. All Right, here we go, let's 2:07:35.480 --> 2:07:37.520 get to this pick aside for you. In fact, I 2:07:37.720 --> 2:07:41.560 even have the intro clip. Let's pick aside. 2:07:51.040 --> 2:07:52.120 This woman is. 2:07:52.200 --> 2:07:57.640 Blaming the public transportation folks for not being accommodating. 2:07:58.120 --> 2:07:59.480 She's in a wheelchair. 2:08:00.200 --> 2:08:02.520 Get ready for the weirdest twist in a pick a 2:08:02.640 --> 2:08:06.040 side video that we've ever had, says, this woman is 2:08:06.120 --> 2:08:09.400 in her wheelchair. She's upset that she can't get onto 2:08:09.440 --> 2:08:11.879 public transportation. Here we go, seeling, let's. 2:08:11.800 --> 2:08:13.600 Lift down rip. 2:08:14.120 --> 2:08:16.280 Here's what happens if you're a wheelchair user and the 2:08:16.400 --> 2:08:18.280 lift breaks of the train station okay. 2:08:18.400 --> 2:08:22.240 So she's arrived in Piccadilly, Manchester. So she's in the 2:08:22.440 --> 2:08:26.160 UK and she's at this area where she's trying to 2:08:26.160 --> 2:08:30.440 get on the underground or whatever the train, and when 2:08:30.480 --> 2:08:32.160 she gets up to the stairs, she's like, how am 2:08:32.200 --> 2:08:34.440 I supposed to get up here in my wheelchair? 2:08:34.560 --> 2:08:37.680 And she thinks that this is not handicap accessible and 2:08:37.800 --> 2:08:38.520 ches to Piccadilly. 2:08:38.600 --> 2:08:40.680 And when I arrived, the lift was broken and I 2:08:40.800 --> 2:08:43.240 had my chair and attachment. I spoke to the staff 2:08:43.320 --> 2:08:44.960 and they brought down a stair lift. 2:08:45.800 --> 2:08:46.320 It works. 2:08:47.400 --> 2:08:49.840 The first option was the built in stairlift, but this 2:08:50.200 --> 2:08:53.400 actually didn't work. They figured out that it was broken. 2:08:53.240 --> 2:08:55.720 So that was two options completely down, all right, So 2:08:55.800 --> 2:08:59.360 the elevator isn't working for the wheelchair lady. Then they 2:08:59.400 --> 2:09:02.560 had some sort of stairlift and that also is not working, 2:09:02.960 --> 2:09:04.800 and there's two flights of stairs in front of her 2:09:04.840 --> 2:09:07.000 and she can't get her wheelchair up there, and she's Matt. 2:09:07.040 --> 2:09:09.160 I don't think I knew they had portable stairlifts that 2:09:09.240 --> 2:09:12.440 you could just kind of walk around with and just 2:09:12.560 --> 2:09:14.200 clamp one on and go here you go. 2:09:14.760 --> 2:09:16.920 I didn't either like the ones in the commercials or 2:09:17.680 --> 2:09:20.240 the old lady goes up the ye the side of 2:09:20.280 --> 2:09:23.400 the stairs, so she wants to get up there. 2:09:23.480 --> 2:09:25.840 She says, I'm in a wheelchair. You should accommodate for this. 2:09:26.000 --> 2:09:28.280 So we're gonna have to choose whether we think the 2:09:29.400 --> 2:09:32.560 woman in the wheelchair is wrong or whether we think 2:09:32.600 --> 2:09:34.880 the people running this train station are wrong. 2:09:34.960 --> 2:09:35.520 Let's keep going. 2:09:35.560 --> 2:09:38.880 The condoption was a small portable stairlift which didn't look 2:09:38.920 --> 2:09:40.880 as sturdy, and I was quite scared of it. Not 2:09:40.920 --> 2:09:43.120 gonna lie when they wrote it down anyway, And when 2:09:43.160 --> 2:09:45.120 we got to the bottom, we realized that my chair 2:09:45.120 --> 2:09:47.440 wouldn't fit onto it. I have quite a long wheelbase 2:09:47.520 --> 2:09:49.960 with my attachments, so we couldn't do it. We'd just 2:09:50.040 --> 2:09:52.400 gotten off a flight, too, so I couldn't even detach 2:09:52.520 --> 2:09:55.000 my attachment because how the stairlifts. 2:09:54.480 --> 2:09:59.000 Were Okay, the stairlift goes up and you're supposed to 2:09:59.080 --> 2:10:01.240 put your wheel chair on it, and it like crawls 2:10:01.320 --> 2:10:02.040 up like a robot. 2:10:02.080 --> 2:10:04.160 Almost looks like one of those pool robots. 2:10:04.240 --> 2:10:07.480 Like a little tank. It's got those like tank wheels. 2:10:08.000 --> 2:10:11.320 But it wasn't big enough for hers, so she couldn't 2:10:11.320 --> 2:10:15.000 get up the elevator. She couldn't get up the portable lift. 2:10:15.080 --> 2:10:18.040 She couldn't get up the stair lift. She's mad at 2:10:18.080 --> 2:10:18.600 this place. 2:10:18.720 --> 2:10:21.440 So what does she do? Well, she says enough's enough, 2:10:21.960 --> 2:10:24.240 and she gets out of her wheelchair and walks up 2:10:24.280 --> 2:10:25.320 the stairs taped together. 2:10:25.360 --> 2:10:27.400 And we didn't have scissors. So in the end, because 2:10:27.440 --> 2:10:29.480 I'm ambulatory and I did have a bit of energy 2:10:29.520 --> 2:10:31.400 on this day, I offered to walk up the stairs 2:10:31.440 --> 2:10:33.640 while they carried up my setup. The staff were really 2:10:33.680 --> 2:10:35.640 helpful in this case, but I'm not sure how it 2:10:35.640 --> 2:10:37.640 would have been fixed if I couldn't walk up the stairs. 2:10:37.760 --> 2:10:40.560 Travel is really unpredictable anyway, but if you add in 2:10:40.640 --> 2:10:42.720 being a wheelchair user, you never quite know what's going 2:10:42.800 --> 2:10:44.440 to happen or how to get to your destination. 2:10:44.640 --> 2:10:46.760 Okay, well, well we'll stop right here. Let's stop and 2:10:46.840 --> 2:10:47.840 consider what just happened. 2:10:48.680 --> 2:10:53.320 We've witnessed a miracle, ladies and gentlemen, after a blot 2:10:53.360 --> 2:10:56.560 twist is correct, feral kitten on twitch, we have witnessed 2:10:56.600 --> 2:10:59.920 a miracle. After demanding every possible way up this flight 2:11:00.040 --> 2:11:02.320 of stairs, she goes, well, enough, sit up, I'll just 2:11:02.400 --> 2:11:05.400 get up and I'll walk up the flight of stairs. 2:11:06.040 --> 2:11:09.480 And she walks up the flight of stairs to the 2:11:09.560 --> 2:11:11.720 top stairs. And you might be saying, well, yes, Sean, 2:11:11.800 --> 2:11:15.440 there are people in wheelchairs that sometimes have to get 2:11:15.520 --> 2:11:17.120 up in emergencies and walk. 2:11:17.800 --> 2:11:20.200 Don't you know about that? May I submit to you 2:11:20.480 --> 2:11:23.000 a video of this woman doing her part time hobby. 2:11:23.560 --> 2:11:27.280 Here she is. She also likes to do gymnastics. I 2:11:27.360 --> 2:11:29.160 guess this is her here. 2:11:30.320 --> 2:11:37.280 Oh yeah, boy, she's stretching and bending in ways I 2:11:37.400 --> 2:11:40.000 wouldn't think you could do in a wheelchair. 2:11:42.240 --> 2:11:42.920 To doing. 2:11:43.400 --> 2:11:46.640 She's on what is this called the balance spar beam. 2:11:47.720 --> 2:11:50.240 She's on the balance beam in the gym. Ladies and gentlemen, 2:11:50.320 --> 2:11:52.280 this woman is now able to get up on the 2:11:52.320 --> 2:11:53.000 balance beam. 2:11:56.320 --> 2:11:59.360 I mean she's fit. There's nothing about her that doesn't work. 2:11:59.480 --> 2:12:00.400 Or the same girl. 2:12:00.880 --> 2:12:04.640 This is the same woman, Okay. The woman claims after 2:12:04.720 --> 2:12:07.240 all of this that she's part of a group called 2:12:08.000 --> 2:12:12.400 ambulatory wheelchair users. And I guess these are people here 2:12:12.520 --> 2:12:16.720 here some other people in this community. Are they all women? 2:12:17.400 --> 2:12:19.200 A lot of them appear to be one. They're all 2:12:19.280 --> 2:12:23.120 in wheelchairs in this video. They're all at the airport, 2:12:23.200 --> 2:12:25.960 I believe, and look look up real quick, see like 2:12:26.160 --> 2:12:30.080 ambulatory wheelchair users. I guess these are people who just 2:12:30.200 --> 2:12:32.280 kind of use them and they can't tell you why. 2:12:33.360 --> 2:12:33.480 Uh. 2:12:33.760 --> 2:12:38.840 Inmbulatory wheelchair users, this is some community. It's somebody who 2:12:38.920 --> 2:12:40.800 can walk or stand to some degree, but use a 2:12:40.840 --> 2:12:44.960 wheelchair to manage chronic pain, conserve energy, or stay safe. 2:12:45.840 --> 2:12:51.160 To stay safe, you use a wheelchair. What like you're walking? 2:12:54.120 --> 2:12:57.960 They use wheelchairs even though they can walk. It says 2:12:58.040 --> 2:13:01.320 common misconceptions that they're fake it. You know what, if 2:13:01.400 --> 2:13:05.200 you can do this, if you can get into a 2:13:05.360 --> 2:13:08.120 gym and do acrobatics and get on the balance beam 2:13:08.160 --> 2:13:11.440 and bend over like a reverse crab, I'm going to 2:13:11.600 --> 2:13:14.920 say you're faking it all right. I'm gonna say you're 2:13:14.920 --> 2:13:20.200 stolen valoring your way into a wheelchair. That was twist 2:13:20.240 --> 2:13:23.480 I did not expect in this scenario, but there she is. 2:13:24.000 --> 2:13:26.000 So what side do you pick? The lady in the 2:13:26.040 --> 2:13:30.480 wheelchair who ended up walking up the stairs or the 2:13:30.880 --> 2:13:33.840 train station that didn't have things to get somebody up 2:13:33.880 --> 2:13:34.800 the stairs to begin with. 2:13:35.520 --> 2:13:37.960 It's on you. You pick a side. Let us know 2:13:38.040 --> 2:13:41.080 what you think with your comments on this. 2:13:41.680 --> 2:13:44.360 I kind of side with the poor guys who had 2:13:44.400 --> 2:13:47.200 to double team that wheelchair to get it up the stairs. 2:13:48.960 --> 2:13:49.200 Walk. 2:13:49.800 --> 2:13:52.200 Can you imagine these guys who pick up her wheelchair 2:13:52.240 --> 2:13:54.280 and then they go, Okay, we're gonna carry you up, 2:13:54.280 --> 2:13:55.360 but she goes, no, no, no, I'm good. 2:13:55.520 --> 2:13:57.520 I'll just walk to the top of the stairs. I'll 2:13:57.600 --> 2:14:00.800 just wait what oh yeah. 2:14:01.440 --> 2:14:04.480 All I think about is people who are actually disabled 2:14:04.560 --> 2:14:08.920 in wheelchairs watching this. Friend of mine is in a wheelchair, 2:14:09.000 --> 2:14:11.800 has been since he was twenty years old, nineteen or 2:14:11.800 --> 2:14:15.000 twenty years old. I can imagine him watching this and 2:14:15.080 --> 2:14:19.320 going like, oh god, I don't think you can grasp 2:14:19.680 --> 2:14:22.200 the amount of anger I have for a person who's 2:14:22.280 --> 2:14:26.160 doing stolen valor in a wheelchair, for a person who's 2:14:26.200 --> 2:14:29.400 like mentally bent themselves around so much that they think 2:14:29.440 --> 2:14:32.080 they're like disabled and need to wheel around and want 2:14:32.120 --> 2:14:33.320 the attention or whatever. 2:14:34.880 --> 2:14:37.440 Very very very weird. 2:14:37.480 --> 2:14:41.560 And I imagine people who are actually disabled have particular 2:14:41.640 --> 2:14:43.760 thoughts about this. But let us know what you think. 2:14:43.880 --> 2:14:46.800 There you go, there's your pick aside for today's The 2:14:46.880 --> 2:14:49.360 evidence against her doesn't look great in the moment, but 2:14:49.480 --> 2:14:52.400 we'll see what you have to say. All right, quick 2:14:52.440 --> 2:14:55.080 break when we come back. We have so much to 2:14:55.160 --> 2:14:57.160 work in and not a lot of time. People were 2:14:57.200 --> 2:14:59.920 asking about the RFK clip I've got it. We can 2:15:00.080 --> 2:15:03.640 play that RFK yelling at some people on CNN. There's 2:15:03.680 --> 2:15:07.080 a lot happening in the WNBA world, so we can 2:15:07.360 --> 2:15:09.680 try to work that in. There's this mom who got 2:15:09.720 --> 2:15:13.800 a DUI who's going megaviral, and we'll try to work 2:15:13.840 --> 2:15:15.040 in all of that. I don't know if it's all 2:15:15.080 --> 2:15:17.360 going to fit in, but we'll do our best and 2:15:17.440 --> 2:15:19.400 we'll see how that goes.

Let's see, 2:16:22.280 --> 2:16:26.000 I wanted to work in We did enough of this front. 2:16:26.160 --> 2:16:27.560 I want to work in some stuff about the in 2:16:27.640 --> 2:16:31.000 and Out shooting. There was a lot of coverage of 2:16:31.120 --> 2:16:33.760 this over the weekend. Here's some of the footage. I 2:16:33.760 --> 2:16:35.360 don't know if they curse in this. I'm gonna mute this, 2:16:35.440 --> 2:16:37.959 but I'll explain it to everybody. This is right outside 2:16:38.000 --> 2:16:41.039 the in and out and the shooter was on the move. 2:16:41.600 --> 2:16:44.440 And the person that popped up was just some guy, 2:16:44.560 --> 2:16:47.520 like a cowboy hat wearing guy who's a good guy 2:16:47.600 --> 2:16:50.959 with a gun, who popped up to stop this shooting 2:16:51.040 --> 2:16:54.760 that was underway at a Chick fil a location. He 2:16:54.879 --> 2:16:57.600 got into a gunfight with the guy with a semi 2:16:57.640 --> 2:17:01.520 automatic weapon. He popped out. It looks like this might 2:17:01.560 --> 2:17:04.039 be his vehicle right here, because his trunk is open. 2:17:04.720 --> 2:17:07.240 You see the trunk is open on the vehicle for 2:17:07.280 --> 2:17:09.240 those of you watching a YouTube dot com slash the 2:17:09.280 --> 2:17:11.520 news junk. He pops his trunk open and then he 2:17:11.560 --> 2:17:15.320 gets into a bona fide shootout with the guy trying 2:17:15.360 --> 2:17:17.000 to shoot up the Chick fil A at the moment. 2:17:17.320 --> 2:17:19.600 Then there was an officer as well that got into 2:17:19.680 --> 2:17:23.480 it with this shooter, and they were able to seemingly 2:17:24.080 --> 2:17:27.120 stop this from being even worse than it was. Uh, 2:17:27.640 --> 2:17:31.320 here's here's outside this from inside somebody's vehicle. I think 2:17:31.360 --> 2:17:34.400 this is where you actually see the shooter walking around 2:17:34.440 --> 2:17:37.000 right there outside the in and out. This is in 2:17:37.080 --> 2:17:40.720 Twin Falls, Idaho, where this happened. The person was not 2:17:40.840 --> 2:17:44.560 apprehended alive. They turned their own gun on themselves. Oh 2:17:44.560 --> 2:17:46.680 it's good thing you kept this muted. You can see 2:17:46.800 --> 2:17:49.959 the Yeah. I figured that we're your questions going by, 2:17:50.560 --> 2:17:53.000 so that the video the white car with the trunk 2:17:53.080 --> 2:17:56.120 up might have been the actual original shooters, and the 2:17:56.200 --> 2:17:59.760 person came from around the way to confront them and 2:18:00.200 --> 2:18:04.160 successfully distracted them. There is I think I got the 2:18:04.480 --> 2:18:07.760 police talking about this in a press conference. Here they are. 2:18:07.959 --> 2:18:11.440 He's twenty four years old. The shooter's name is Chad Williams. 2:18:11.560 --> 2:18:13.400 Being reviewed by the Jerome Police Department. 2:18:13.680 --> 2:18:16.080 More information about that incident will be forthcoming in the 2:18:16.160 --> 2:18:20.040 days to follow. At this time, we can confirm that 2:18:20.160 --> 2:18:24.080 the suspect, twenty four year old Chad Williams, is deceased 2:18:24.400 --> 2:18:29.160 on the self inflicted gunshot round investigators are continuing to 2:18:29.280 --> 2:18:33.480 review the incident, timeline, process evidence, and conduct interviews. 2:18:33.640 --> 2:18:37.840 So he was twenty four and there's not a huge 2:18:38.959 --> 2:18:41.800 database of information about him online. 2:18:41.840 --> 2:18:46.600 He didn't have a really big imprint on social media. 2:18:47.840 --> 2:18:50.320 The Twin Falls In and Out looking at where this 2:18:50.560 --> 2:18:52.840 was on the map, here looks like I said, right 2:18:52.920 --> 2:18:55.920 by the mountains, I think wherever they are here in 2:18:55.959 --> 2:18:58.840 Twin Falls, Idaho. And it was just this In and 2:18:58.879 --> 2:19:01.680 Out burger that I think was a relatively new location. 2:19:02.600 --> 2:19:05.160 One of the employees was indeed killed. I think I 2:19:05.240 --> 2:19:06.920 have a statement from In and Out here. It is 2:19:07.520 --> 2:19:09.600 In and Out said a tragic shooting at a newly 2:19:09.680 --> 2:19:12.240 opened In and Out Burger in Twin Falls, Idaho killed 2:19:12.280 --> 2:19:14.720 three people, including an In and Out associate who was 2:19:14.760 --> 2:19:18.040 serving customers at the time. Seven others were injured. In 2:19:18.160 --> 2:19:22.480 and Out expressed deep sorrow, offering condolences to the victims' families, 2:19:22.680 --> 2:19:25.119 and said the company is mourning the loss of its associate. 2:19:25.520 --> 2:19:28.640 President Lindsay Snyder shared that the associate was helping customers 2:19:28.720 --> 2:19:31.039 during the tragedy and said the entire In and Out 2:19:31.080 --> 2:19:32.240 family is grieving. 2:19:32.040 --> 2:19:34.040 Alongside the victims loved ones. 2:19:34.720 --> 2:19:38.360 So again, the weirdest thing about this is, once more 2:19:38.520 --> 2:19:40.720 we've found the person's name and there's not a big 2:19:40.879 --> 2:19:45.360 social media imprint of this person and a clear reason 2:19:45.440 --> 2:19:48.320 as to why they did it, which we were kind 2:19:48.360 --> 2:19:51.920 of getting used to being the case. Somebody had asked 2:19:51.959 --> 2:19:55.240 about RFK and if you saw, if I saw what 2:19:55.400 --> 2:19:57.959 was happening on CNN, there was a shouting match. 2:19:58.879 --> 2:20:02.360 Not really surprising, sounds hurtful for our f K. Yeah, 2:20:02.440 --> 2:20:03.080 that's true. 2:20:03.120 --> 2:20:04.160 I don't know how good this is going to be 2:20:04.200 --> 2:20:05.760 to listen to, but we'll give it a peek here 2:20:06.320 --> 2:20:08.240 because this was going viral over the weekend. 2:20:08.440 --> 2:20:12.680 Also trying to find out how it interacts with people's DNA, 2:20:12.840 --> 2:20:17.160 what's predisposed to to have an autistic child? 2:20:17.520 --> 2:20:18.320 Are you doing both? 2:20:18.879 --> 2:20:23.200 But you probably don't understand this because you're not a scientist, 2:20:23.280 --> 2:20:24.480 But you're not either. 2:20:25.959 --> 2:20:33.760 Because I understand Jens vulnerability gene environmental That's what I'm asking. 2:20:33.879 --> 2:20:34.560 Are you studying the. 2:20:34.640 --> 2:20:39.880 Environmental all the different environmental exposures. But your statement you 2:20:40.040 --> 2:20:43.480 have been fooled, Your statement that this has been studied 2:20:43.800 --> 2:20:47.240 is not true. Category it is considered, it is any 2:20:47.280 --> 2:20:47.760 of the stuff. 2:20:47.840 --> 2:20:54.679 It is considered decided by every scientist who has studied. 2:20:54.320 --> 2:20:58.160 This, scientists hundreds. 2:20:58.400 --> 2:21:01.119 So on the one day you are understand why people. 2:21:00.959 --> 2:21:04.160 Aren't getting at ME of Sciences, what do. 2:21:04.160 --> 2:21:06.879 You understand why people are not getting measles vaccines because 2:21:06.879 --> 2:21:10.520 they're hearing you say that it could const change of subjects. 2:21:10.560 --> 2:21:10.760 I'm not. 2:21:10.920 --> 2:21:12.199 It's very much related. 2:21:12.520 --> 2:21:14.640 Show me one of the studies it's been done on 2:21:14.760 --> 2:21:17.760 the first eight the vaccine or in the first six 2:21:17.840 --> 2:21:18.440 months of life. 2:21:18.560 --> 2:21:21.800 You will not find them the National Academy of Sciences. 2:21:21.920 --> 2:21:24.560 So yeah, it's it's tough to get in a shouting 2:21:24.640 --> 2:21:27.240 match when you're RFK because he doesn't physically have the 2:21:27.360 --> 2:21:30.960 ability no to like shout like that. So he seems 2:21:31.000 --> 2:21:33.760 even more exasperated than if you were actually yelling at 2:21:33.800 --> 2:21:34.680 a person like this. 2:21:35.360 --> 2:21:38.280 It just seems like like even regular talking is a 2:21:38.400 --> 2:21:43.560 chore for him. Yeah, it's beginning in this debate you 2:21:43.720 --> 2:21:45.880 just kind of feel bad for the guy, even if 2:21:45.920 --> 2:21:47.080 you disagree with him. 2:21:47.640 --> 2:21:47.879 Yeah. 2:21:48.160 --> 2:21:50.600 Yeah, I also saw I wanted to come back and 2:21:50.640 --> 2:21:53.400 scoop this up a little bit. Somebody was responding to 2:21:54.320 --> 2:21:57.080 the Spider Man brand New Day, and I said it 2:21:57.280 --> 2:22:01.840 was the number two all time US box office opening weekend, 2:22:02.640 --> 2:22:06.160 behind Avengers Endgame. I said, and I believe this, that 2:22:06.280 --> 2:22:08.080 it would have been number one if it wasn't for 2:22:08.240 --> 2:22:11.360 Imax being fully locked down by the Odyssey because of 2:22:11.400 --> 2:22:14.160 a deal the Odyssey had with all the Imax theaters 2:22:14.200 --> 2:22:16.320 that could have made even more money. They'll be in 2:22:16.879 --> 2:22:20.640 theaters this weekend with some Imax screens, and people who 2:22:20.640 --> 2:22:23.360 want to see Spider Man that way might boost it 2:22:23.480 --> 2:22:25.560 up really good for a second weekend. But the movie 2:22:25.640 --> 2:22:28.160 made huge money, and it was the biggest US box 2:22:28.240 --> 2:22:31.800 office weekend in the history of the box office. Somebody 2:22:31.920 --> 2:22:36.840 sent over, hey, you got the number one movie. The 2:22:37.240 --> 2:22:40.400 number one highest grossing film, they said, is actually Gone 2:22:40.480 --> 2:22:43.240 with the Wind. And I see people do this a lot, 2:22:43.400 --> 2:22:45.760 like they have a completely different list of the top 2:22:45.920 --> 2:22:48.040 films of all time, and they'll go it's Gone with 2:22:48.080 --> 2:22:49.880 the Win, the Birth of the Nation, Star Wars, the 2:22:49.920 --> 2:22:52.240 Sound of Music, and they go by how many people 2:22:52.360 --> 2:22:56.560 bought tickets, not the actual revenue or the adjusted gross 2:22:56.879 --> 2:22:58.720 of the box office, which is. 2:22:58.800 --> 2:22:59.400 Kind of fair. 2:23:00.000 --> 2:23:02.040 But I think you also when people send this over, 2:23:02.080 --> 2:23:05.400 I think you don't understand some some pretty important things. 2:23:06.120 --> 2:23:06.920 Gone with the Wind. 2:23:07.000 --> 2:23:08.320 They're trying to say, Gone with the Wind was the 2:23:08.400 --> 2:23:11.400 highest grossing film of all time, not Avengers Endgame. 2:23:11.640 --> 2:23:16.360 Call it highest grossing, you know, the biggest opening or 2:23:16.560 --> 2:23:23.840 most successful movie. Grossing literally indicates that you're talking about money. Yeah, 2:23:23.920 --> 2:23:26.520 and the money was just different revenues. Yeah, the money 2:23:26.600 --> 2:23:27.959 was different back then. It costs less. 2:23:28.680 --> 2:23:31.080 But the thing that I don't think people know when 2:23:31.160 --> 2:23:33.160 Gone with the Wind came out in nineteen thirty nine, 2:23:33.840 --> 2:23:35.240 oh see, then, I don't even know how we would 2:23:35.240 --> 2:23:37.720 look this up. I'm pretty sure Gone with the Wind 2:23:37.840 --> 2:23:41.280 was in theaters for years and years and years. Like 2:23:41.400 --> 2:23:42.600 I think Gone with the Wind might have been in 2:23:42.680 --> 2:23:45.760 theaters for four or five years in nineteen thirty nine. 2:23:45.800 --> 2:23:48.119 They weren't cranking out movies every week, and we're so spoiled, 2:23:48.160 --> 2:23:50.840 we don't understand this stuff. But in nineteen thirty nine, 2:23:51.040 --> 2:23:52.840 when something came to the theaters, it was going to 2:23:52.840 --> 2:23:55.400 be there for a really long time. And then word 2:23:55.440 --> 2:23:56.680 of mouth would be like, have you seen Gone with 2:23:56.680 --> 2:23:58.560 the Wind. I've seen it, I've seen it seven times. 2:23:58.800 --> 2:23:59.879 Just a fantastic piece. 2:24:00.000 --> 2:24:02.320 So the original theatrical run of Gone with the Wind 2:24:02.400 --> 2:24:06.119 lasted almost two years, okay, following its December fifteenth, nineteen 2:24:06.280 --> 2:24:08.960 thirty nine, premiere, it played as a high priced road 2:24:09.040 --> 2:24:13.080 show engagement before transitioning to a general release at popular 2:24:13.160 --> 2:24:17.400 prices in early nineteen forty one, anchoring continuous theater screens 2:24:17.560 --> 2:24:20.119 nationwide for well over eighteen straight months. 2:24:20.480 --> 2:24:23.080 Okay, so for years this. 2:24:23.160 --> 2:24:25.400 Thing was sitting in the box office, and I think 2:24:25.520 --> 2:24:28.480 that between all the re releases it because it was 2:24:28.520 --> 2:24:31.160 re released in theaters a lot of times too, and 2:24:31.240 --> 2:24:34.720 that also goes to the number of admissions or whatever 2:24:34.760 --> 2:24:35.560 you would get from this. 2:24:35.879 --> 2:24:38.199 This is just a weird way to do the money. 2:24:38.400 --> 2:24:42.920 I understand adjusting money over time, but back then things 2:24:42.959 --> 2:24:45.040 were so different, and like John says, it's not like 2:24:45.080 --> 2:24:47.560 there was a big selection to choose from. No, when 2:24:47.600 --> 2:24:50.120 you were going to the movies, the only reason you 2:24:50.200 --> 2:24:52.600 might say plural is because there might be one other 2:24:52.680 --> 2:24:54.160 movie rather than Gone with the Wind. 2:24:54.640 --> 2:24:56.600 There was not a lot of stuff at the box office. 2:24:56.879 --> 2:25:00.280 People would go see everything just because they I wanted 2:25:00.280 --> 2:25:02.959 to see something, even if the movie sucked, or they 2:25:03.000 --> 2:25:05.440 would go see whatever movie that they could because it 2:25:05.560 --> 2:25:07.760 was a different movie to watch on the big screen 2:25:07.800 --> 2:25:11.480 at the theater. So those times were different. This weekend 2:25:11.640 --> 2:25:17.040 Spider Man was just a few million short of being 2:25:17.200 --> 2:25:20.560 the biggest opening weekend in US history, very very very 2:25:20.680 --> 2:25:21.320 very successful. 2:25:21.680 --> 2:25:23.240 At the top of the show, when we talked about 2:25:23.280 --> 2:25:27.360 Spider Man having the weekend that it did, a lot 2:25:27.400 --> 2:25:29.400 of people were chiming in like, well, like, yeah, that's 2:25:29.480 --> 2:25:33.800 because the tickets to Spider Man are way more than 2:25:34.080 --> 2:25:37.360 the tickets were to Titanic or you know, any of 2:25:37.400 --> 2:25:41.840 the other movies that had these you know, epic runs 2:25:41.879 --> 2:25:45.160 at the box office. The tickets are so much more 2:25:45.200 --> 2:25:48.480 expensive now to go see them that less people can 2:25:48.959 --> 2:25:52.360 can get This record takes less people to set or 2:25:52.480 --> 2:25:53.720 the records at the box office. 2:25:54.080 --> 2:25:56.879 Yeah, that's true, it is, But we just go buy money. 2:25:57.000 --> 2:25:59.120 We go buy the actual money that it brings in. 2:26:00.000 --> 2:26:02.640 And if you want to do like the inflated inflation 2:26:03.000 --> 2:26:06.400 included and you know, adjusted for inflation numbers, that's that's fine. 2:26:07.000 --> 2:26:10.760 But yeah, I mean, uh, these are the classic movies 2:26:10.840 --> 2:26:12.680 that so many people saw because they were just out 2:26:12.720 --> 2:26:15.400 in the theaters forever and ever, and every person in 2:26:15.480 --> 2:26:18.439 the country saw it multiple times. You know, I'm exaggerating, 2:26:18.480 --> 2:26:20.480 but only a little bit. I'm not exaggerating that much 2:26:20.520 --> 2:26:21.680 people went to see these over. 2:26:22.320 --> 2:26:25.440 There's been plenty of movies even that I can remember 2:26:25.480 --> 2:26:28.040 in my lifetime where people have seen it multiple times. 2:26:28.080 --> 2:26:30.480 Top Gun Maverick, I knew I had friends that saw 2:26:30.920 --> 2:26:35.320 three four times, was one that especially the female audience 2:26:35.360 --> 2:26:36.640 watched over and over and over. 2:26:37.160 --> 2:26:40.200 Somebody in chat literally said they just went to see 2:26:40.240 --> 2:26:41.320 Odyssey for the second time. 2:26:41.320 --> 2:26:42.400 The Odyssey, so. 2:26:42.760 --> 2:26:45.240 They like, they'll go just see the movie in a 2:26:45.280 --> 2:26:48.640 regular theater, and now I want to see it in Imax, 2:26:48.720 --> 2:26:50.200 and you go to see the movie twice. 2:26:50.440 --> 2:26:52.200 So that still happens with this kind of stuff. 2:26:52.240 --> 2:26:55.560 I don't think I've ever watched a movie more than 2:26:55.680 --> 2:26:59.120 once in a theater just because I loved it so much. 2:26:59.320 --> 2:27:01.080 I think it was the only times I've done it 2:27:01.200 --> 2:27:03.280 is because yeah, I've seen it. But then we were 2:27:03.320 --> 2:27:04.720 going out with a bunch of friends and they want 2:27:04.720 --> 2:27:06.560 to watch it, and I was like, whatever, I liked 2:27:06.600 --> 2:27:09.520 it the first time. Like I watched Team America more 2:27:09.600 --> 2:27:11.920 than once, at more than one time in theaters. 2:27:12.320 --> 2:27:12.640 Why not. 2:27:13.360 --> 2:27:15.520 It was a funny movie that I really liked, but 2:27:16.200 --> 2:27:18.400 it wasn't anything that I would have gone, I have 2:27:18.520 --> 2:27:19.880 to see this in theaters again. 2:27:20.280 --> 2:27:22.959 Yeah, I need the cinematic experience. That's what I need. 2:27:23.040 --> 2:27:23.200 Here. 2:27:23.320 --> 2:27:25.240 The Marionettes quick break. 2:27:25.280 --> 2:27:28.320 When we come back, we'll get into your final dispatches, 2:27:28.360 --> 2:27:31.080 which is just a wash with rate my blank, which 2:27:31.120 --> 2:27:33.680 is rate my dad joke. This week, I'm gonna sift 2:27:33.680 --> 2:27:35.280 through these a little bit and see if there's any 2:27:35.360 --> 2:27:39.080 that'll crack a smile even for us. And we'll also 2:27:39.160 --> 2:27:41.280 do these stories that didn't make the cut and said 2:27:41.320 --> 2:27:43.600 I learned to wrap everything up for a Monday. All 2:27:43.680 --> 2:27:46.120 of that is coming up next on the News Junkie. 2:28:03.120 --> 2:28:06.080 A few pieces of news for you tomorrow, one a 2:28:06.120 --> 2:28:08.360 little bit bigger, one a little bit smaller. So I'll 2:28:08.400 --> 2:28:11.120 miss the show tomorrow. We'll have two things to tell 2:28:11.160 --> 2:28:13.560 you you to talk to you about on the show. 2:28:13.600 --> 2:28:17.120 Their show related. I also am working on trying to 2:28:17.160 --> 2:28:22.160 get the senator who is He's the one who's like 2:28:22.280 --> 2:28:25.600 leading the charge against hold On. 2:28:25.840 --> 2:28:30.760 He's a center. He's a Congressman. James Cormer. James Comer. 2:28:31.280 --> 2:28:34.600 James Comer is the senator who is fighting this THCHC 2:28:34.840 --> 2:28:38.440 drinks ban and he has put together a plan to 2:28:38.640 --> 2:28:43.200 try to keep those THHC drinks in your stores. James Comer, 2:28:43.560 --> 2:28:45.400 if we could talk to him, we might line this up. 2:28:45.879 --> 2:28:49.000 Is talking about the actual thing that resulted in this 2:28:49.200 --> 2:28:52.720 band that's on the way for THHC drinks, And they said, sure, 2:28:53.240 --> 2:28:56.880 it was indeed a lot of the liquor companies. It 2:28:57.120 --> 2:28:59.880 was the liquor companies who were lobbying against these tha 2:29:00.080 --> 2:29:00.560 sea drinks. 2:29:00.840 --> 2:29:01.960 But you know who else it was. 2:29:02.760 --> 2:29:07.960 It was the legal marijuana distributors who didn't want the 2:29:08.000 --> 2:29:10.440 competition from the t interests people. 2:29:10.680 --> 2:29:13.760 So, because if the liquor companies are against this, it's 2:29:13.840 --> 2:29:18.920 quite weird that alcohol retailers are in favor of it. 2:29:19.000 --> 2:29:23.240 There's uh, you know, take this as you will, because 2:29:23.280 --> 2:29:27.360 the sources a publication called Marijuana Moment dot net, but 2:29:27.520 --> 2:29:30.920 it says alcohol retailers celebrate sentence move to keep HEMP 2:29:31.000 --> 2:29:32.520 THHD drinks legal for now. 2:29:32.959 --> 2:29:33.800 Okay, they're trying. 2:29:33.879 --> 2:29:35.800 They haven't done this, but maybe we can put a 2:29:35.840 --> 2:29:38.640 little pressure on this and make this happen to keep 2:29:38.640 --> 2:29:41.160 the THHC industry, the drink industry going. I think it's 2:29:41.400 --> 2:29:44.360 harmless and nothing but good to tax it if you 2:29:44.440 --> 2:29:47.320 want whatever. It's already expensive.
