Speaker 1: And this never ever ever happens. Friends.
Speaker 2: What happened?
Speaker 3: Yeah, what happened.
Speaker 1: It appears that we have, believe it or not, a
Speaker 1: last minute message. I cannot believe this, but here we
Speaker 1: go print it is. Let me just double check, triple check.
Speaker 1: We have a last minute message from that teacher who
Speaker 1: thought her student was a dog in the hallway.
Speaker 4: Let's see what she said.
Speaker 1: We did it, everybody, that's right, there we go.
Speaker 5: More.
Speaker 1: It's much more of a celebration with that. I think
Speaker 1: we've made it through a Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, and
Speaker 1: Friday has arrived. Patch yourself on the back for making
Speaker 1: it this far. Yeah, we did here we here, we
Speaker 1: are a full week of shows behind us, and now
Speaker 1: we'll have some fun on a Friday. Everybody up for that?
Speaker 1: Shut him down?
Speaker 6: I hope so gloomy out here, but I'm like, it
Speaker 6: is this room party central. I also think the AC
Speaker 6: is broken because oh musty.
Speaker 1: Actually it's more it's more cutbacks at h Q because
Speaker 1: they were like, uh, on the weekends, they don't run
Speaker 1: the air conditioners.
Speaker 3: Let's see, I'd say that it's perfectly cool in his studio.
Speaker 1: I was gonna say more like you're dressed for a
Speaker 1: no AC situation.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I had a jacket. Now guns out, but I'm
Speaker 3: now I'm ready to sweat and hyperventily.
Speaker 1: What's to say, squad squad, something of your shirts?
Speaker 3: Squad girls?
Speaker 2: Oh I like that.
Speaker 1: That's cool. Yeah, there you go.
Speaker 3: It's from a whore.
Speaker 1: All right, no further questions, your honor.
Speaker 3: Let's put ours in.
Speaker 1: The ground, our fingers on the pulse. Let's se what's
Speaker 1: happening to this.
Speaker 3: I guess you'll find out the roast.
Speaker 1: Let's see what's happening to this great, big, wide world
Speaker 1: of ours. And we go to Atlanta, Georgia. Everybody and
Speaker 1: a person on a motorcycle is driving along. Uh, turns
Speaker 1: out they're going a bit too fast. They're actually running
Speaker 1: from the cops. Is this video is being filmed? I
Speaker 1: don't know if you guys have seen this, but little
Speaker 1: note for you out there. If you're one of these
Speaker 1: folks like this guy who's like a TikToker who films
Speaker 1: himself running from the cops all the time, the cops
Speaker 1: in Atlanta are apparently a little aggressive. Okay, they'll go
Speaker 1: for you.
Speaker 6: Oh sure, I have just a quick preface question. Yeah,
Speaker 6: this guy has gotten away from the cops leading up
Speaker 6: to this many of times to believe.
Speaker 1: So, yeah, he's known by his TikToker name Dancing Moto,
Speaker 1: and he thought he was going to get away from
Speaker 1: the cops again. But in Atlanta, they kind of don't
Speaker 1: play games, and it kind of left people in this
Speaker 1: lurch where you go, well, do you feel for him
Speaker 1: because he's probably hurting for reasons that you'll hear in
Speaker 1: just a moment, or you like f around and find
Speaker 1: out you're running from the cops on a motorcycle. What
Speaker 1: do you want here? Pick your poison? Here we go,
Speaker 1: cops fling in front of him on the motorcycle. It's raining,
Speaker 1: they are flying.
Speaker 5: Another cop pos in front ready.
Speaker 2: And plowed into him.
Speaker 1: At the end of this like he fell off, rolled, skidded,
Speaker 1: and then the police car came to a stop like
Speaker 1: right on top of him.
Speaker 3: What was the original reason to pull him over?
Speaker 1: He was on a cell phone.
Speaker 2: This is a really.
Speaker 3: Years ago.
Speaker 6: Seriously though, Was it for speeding because that's the reason
Speaker 6: that hit the motorcycles with your car?
Speaker 1: Here here's what I do now, hang, let me bring
Speaker 1: up the story that I saw on this because the
Speaker 1: guy's like kind of a secretive person. Now, I did
Speaker 1: see that there was a story of a place from.
Speaker 7: All the posting he does on TikTok, and but he
Speaker 7: does it anonymously, you know what I mean.
Speaker 8: Uh.
Speaker 1: But but aside from that, there was a story a
Speaker 1: couple of months ago about a motorcycle crash during a
Speaker 1: police stop. I don't know if this was related or not,
Speaker 1: but this is Instagram and TikTok influencer Dancing Modo has
Speaker 1: been left with extensive life threatening injuries after a crash
Speaker 1: with the Georgia State Patrol about to be rich. I
Speaker 1: don't know anything about this. I don't know anything about
Speaker 1: the Georgia State Patrol, but I have heard that they
Speaker 1: are like really really intense, like they are gonna get you.
Speaker 1: Like they're known for just being like they go the
Speaker 1: extra mile.
Speaker 3: I mean, I hear that, and intense is one word
Speaker 3: to put it. But is this legal? I mean, are
Speaker 3: are they allowed to just run a dude over?
Speaker 5: Well?
Speaker 1: I mean I think the cops are gonna say, like
Speaker 1: we were in a we were in a we were
Speaker 1: in a high speed chase with a motorcycle. We wanted
Speaker 1: to stop him from harming anybody. Else right and him over. Uh,
Speaker 1: the thing is, did they intentionally go back to We'll
Speaker 1: go back to the clip in a second, but let's
Speaker 1: just see what it says here. So we learned something
Speaker 1: October ninth, clips of Dancing Moto being chased by the
Speaker 1: Georgia State Patrol win viral on social media. It's about
Speaker 1: a minute long. He's being chased while riding a motorcycle.
Speaker 1: Then they posted online our brother, Dancing Moto was involved
Speaker 1: in a devastating motorcycle accident a few days ago, one
Speaker 1: that left him in critical condition. This says, I mean,
Speaker 1: we don't really know now. He's on the Quasi moto
Speaker 1: after being struck and ran over, which caused severe injuries.
Speaker 1: They said. They claim he's like fighting for his life.
Speaker 1: It's tough. I guess there were some photos of him
Speaker 1: in the hospital, but it's tough to figure out what's
Speaker 1: legit and what's not here. All right, So the cops
Speaker 1: are chasing, the cops going front. It's raining. I can't
Speaker 1: tell how fast is.
Speaker 2: Going, but fast fast.
Speaker 1: And the cop goes and cut him off and slow.
Speaker 2: Down off.
Speaker 1: And then it.
Speaker 3: Runs over him.
Speaker 1: It does run over him, but I feel like they're
Speaker 1: gonna say like, well, this is part of the dangers
Speaker 1: of running for.
Speaker 6: The police, right, even if they like did the grapple
Speaker 6: or they pinya, we're gonna have more protection with let's
Speaker 6: walk this back.
Speaker 1: Let's walk this back, all right. So if you're on
Speaker 1: a jury and you hear a man was on a
Speaker 1: motorcycle breaking any number of laws like obviously speeding and
Speaker 1: driving dangerously and stuff, and then he runs from the
Speaker 1: police and he's videotaping all of this, and then that
Speaker 1: the accident that this all ends in ends up with
Speaker 1: him getting injured and you know, crashing and then getting
Speaker 1: hit by the police vehicle. Are you is a jur
Speaker 1: going to be like, well, yeah, clearly this guy is
Speaker 1: a victim and all of this, or is a jur
Speaker 1: going to think, no way, man, this guy like decided
Speaker 1: to run from the cops. He does this kind of.
Speaker 6: Thing, and then he got question excessive force with running
Speaker 6: over a human body that's already down on the ground,
Speaker 6: like you have let's call it desk late to the
Speaker 6: situation by hitting him with that first car. Right, But
Speaker 6: if the reason why they have two cops after him
Speaker 6: was for speeding, this seems like a little much.
Speaker 1: All right, Well, I put this up on I put
Speaker 1: it up on on see it Now so everybody could
Speaker 1: take a look. Go over to the news Junkie dot
Speaker 1: com in the see it Now section. Tell us what
Speaker 1: you think.
Speaker 2: I mean.
Speaker 7: It's completely normal for them to like tap your car
Speaker 7: if you're running from the cops, to do a little
Speaker 7: tappy tap, But when it's a motorcycle, I could have.
Speaker 3: Killed the other.
Speaker 2: I think.
Speaker 1: I think the cops are gonna say, like, we stopped
Speaker 1: as soon as we can. We were all putting ourselves
Speaker 1: in danger because of this guy. I'll tell you the
Speaker 1: other side of this is probably gonna win, all right.
Speaker 1: The police side is probably gonna be like if he did,
Speaker 1: if he didn't, if he didn't run for the cops
Speaker 1: and put everybody in danger, he wouldn't have put himself
Speaker 1: in danger either, And that's why he's on the ground
Speaker 1: and not doing well. Not not great. There. You know,
Speaker 1: the most annoying thing must have been your body is
Speaker 1: all crushed, your bones are all hurting, and then you
Speaker 1: got that siren right on top of your head as
Speaker 1: you're you're just like come shut the siren of subscribe.
Speaker 1: It should have been genius if he popped that.
Speaker 6: Like as it was got and there was a shows
Speaker 6: a camera and he has like some weird crown or
Speaker 6: cowboy hat on his face.
Speaker 3: Now because someone send it over.
Speaker 1: Oh hold on they thing. Sorry, they did a go
Speaker 1: fund me I think or a gift send go I
Speaker 1: never know. Okay, this is go fund me, all right,
Speaker 1: support Dancing Moto's recovery journey. It's got him covered with
Speaker 1: a like a emoji with his face is covered with
Speaker 1: the emoji of like an injured person in the hospital.
Speaker 1: And he's in the hospital. He's on a bed with
Speaker 1: like all this stuff covering him and it says there's
Speaker 1: a twenty four thousand dollars goal six seventy eight dollars raise.
Speaker 1: But as on the show, people are pretty split over
Speaker 1: whether or not they should be like donating to this guy. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I mean I always got road rash on his arm.
Speaker 1: He shows he's got road rash on his arm on
Speaker 1: one of the arms, and then the rest of you
Speaker 1: can't really see what the what the damages are. One
Speaker 1: lesson from this, no matter how you view this kind
Speaker 1: of thing, wear protective gear when you're on a motorcycle. Dumbass,
Speaker 1: stop trying to worry about how cool you look on
Speaker 1: the motorcycle were protective gear. This is just a really
Speaker 1: really obvious thing that you should do. Okay, we are
Speaker 1: gonna hear from you today. Give us your thoughts on
Speaker 1: that if you think the guy was in the wrong
Speaker 1: or the cops are in the wrong, and again, check
Speaker 1: it out over on see it now on the newsjunkie
Speaker 1: dot com. They gave it away. Today the Nobel Peace
Speaker 1: Prize was handed out and the winner was, according to
Speaker 1: some news outlets, not Trump, which it was was such
Speaker 1: a weird thing. This is the USA Today headline, donald
Speaker 1: Trump does not win no Peace Prize.
Speaker 3: It's rigged. The robots were awful.
Speaker 2: How about who.
Speaker 1: Does number one?
Speaker 2: Yeah? Right?
Speaker 7: Like the shorts to the person who you know won
Speaker 7: the prize for peace?
Speaker 3: Nobody? No one's heard of them.
Speaker 2: Well was he eligible for this one? I mean wording
Speaker 2: stuff is not even.
Speaker 1: The cutoff was literally like the third week of January,
Speaker 1: where he wasn't even in office, Like.
Speaker 3: Why don't they wait so long?
Speaker 1: They couldn't. He wasn't even eligible for anything that he's
Speaker 1: done in his first term for this Nobel Peace Prize.
Speaker 1: Because when the cutoffs are that's why this.
Speaker 2: Is all stupid.
Speaker 1: And then the articles running with Donald Trump does not
Speaker 1: win the Nobel Peace Prize, Well, Jesus, it seems like
Speaker 1: you're almost obsessed with the guy. Then they changed the
Speaker 1: headline after I posted it. They said Trump's perceived Nobel
Speaker 1: Peace Prize nub irks the White House, right, changing things up.
Speaker 1: But the woman who actually won, let's talk about her
Speaker 1: for a second. Her name is Maria Corina Machado, and
Speaker 1: she is a Venezuelan dissident. She's the person who won
Speaker 1: the main Nobel Peace Prize there. Of course, you know
Speaker 1: many that they give out in these moments, and this
Speaker 1: woman was the winner. She said of her victory, this
Speaker 1: recognition of the struggle of all Venezuelans is a boost
Speaker 1: to conclude our task to conquer freedom. She's trying to
Speaker 1: get Venezuelan dictator Maduro out and get democracy back to Venezuela.
Speaker 1: That would be We're on the threshold of victory, and today,
Speaker 1: more than ever, we count on President Trump, the people
Speaker 1: of the United States, the people of Latin America, and
Speaker 1: the democratic nations of the world as our principal allies
Speaker 1: to achieve freedom and democracy.
Speaker 7: O man, you know what Trump needs to do, like
Speaker 7: help her, like right, yeah, Trump, he needs to put
Speaker 7: some resources into.
Speaker 3: Get out your oil because and steal.
Speaker 7: Your bed, because if he wants that Nobel Peace Prize,
Speaker 7: he needs to piggyback off the person who's already got it.
Speaker 3: Here's some thing though, and correct if I'm wrong.
Speaker 6: When it comes to the Nobel Peace Prize, is it
Speaker 6: something that you gun for like you do an Oscar
Speaker 6: or an Emmy or.
Speaker 3: It's you get it traditional, Yeah, when.
Speaker 6: You do the nice and great thing and the peaceful
Speaker 6: stuff that is not with the intention of a Nobel
Speaker 6: Peace Prize.
Speaker 1: Here's the thing. I hear a bunch of people saying this, okay,
Speaker 1: and I see a.
Speaker 2: Lot a lot of media co question.
Speaker 1: Well, let me allow me to respond. I see a
Speaker 1: lot of people saying this, and a lot of these
Speaker 1: media outlet's like what this guy's obsessed with this?
Speaker 2: Oh my god, Trump's you know, obsessed.
Speaker 1: With winning the Nobel Peace Prize. Ladies and gentlemen. There
Speaker 1: are a lot worse things he can be obsessed with
Speaker 1: than trying to get a freaking peace prize. It seems
Speaker 1: like this will keep anybody on the straight and narrow
Speaker 1: if your focus agenda and goal is to try to
Speaker 1: win a Nobel Pece prize.
Speaker 3: Yes, yes, So I was like, let's just have him focus.
Speaker 6: Like he's an eight year old with ADHD Lacey's super
Speaker 6: excited about the history.
Speaker 1: Wow. As he's talking about that, he is seemingly solving problems,
Speaker 1: is he not? Like the situation in Gaza and Israel
Speaker 1: appears to be wrapping up. Nobody else could figure that out,
Speaker 1: and it seems like he's done that. It's not like
Speaker 1: he's just sitting there whining about the Nobel Peace Prize
Speaker 1: every day. But if he's obsessed over that, great, every
Speaker 1: president should be, every one of them, Every president we
Speaker 1: get should be obsessed with like obtaining peace prizes, because
Speaker 1: that seems to be a good thing, right to to
Speaker 1: get peace across the world, at least to me. Maybe
Speaker 1: I'm crazy, Maybe I'm just out of it these days.
Speaker 1: But I salute Maria Corina Machado because she did it.
Speaker 1: I dedicate this prize to the suffering people of Venezuela
Speaker 1: into President Trump for his decisive support of our cause.
Speaker 1: Maybe that means something. She dedicated it to him. It's
Speaker 1: like a proxy victory. But I thought that was so funny.
Speaker 1: It's like Donald Trump does not win the Nobel Peace Prize. Wow,
Speaker 1: what a weird way, shouts out to the lady who
Speaker 1: actually did. And you know what's really interesting. I guess
Speaker 1: what they do is when they decide the Nobel Peace Prize,
Speaker 1: which is in the middle of the night. I'd be
Speaker 1: walking in my sleep, in the middle of our night,
Speaker 1: in the middle of middle of their knight, and the
Speaker 1: middle of the night for us. It's like three o'clock
Speaker 1: in the morning. In Seattle they announce two wins the
Speaker 1: Nobel Peace Prizes and one of the women was from Seattle,
Speaker 1: and the reporters yes or no on this one. We're
Speaker 1: at her door at three a m.
Speaker 3: Three a m.
Speaker 1: Congratulations it's just been announced you won the Nobel Peace Prize.
Speaker 1: And they're like, what rubbing sleep out of their eyes?
Speaker 7: You know what I say? Yes, I know it sounds annoying.
Speaker 7: You want it three in the morning to tell me
Speaker 7: I've won the Nobel Peace Prize. I think it's worth
Speaker 7: the wake up.
Speaker 6: I mean, imagine if they're knocking on your door and
Speaker 6: they're giving the Nobel Peace Prize to someone who's.
Speaker 1: Like, get off my lawn. How dare you, And that
Speaker 1: would be that would be an ironic moment if the
Speaker 1: Nobel Peace Prize winner is incredibly aggressive and angry. Yes
Speaker 1: the information that they're hearing.
Speaker 7: Yes, now look at it this way, all right, Publish
Speaker 7: clearing House.
Speaker 1: They used to show up to your door with big
Speaker 1: fat checks, right, yeah they did. Yeah?
Speaker 2: Would would you fault them?
Speaker 7: What if they told you, like, hey, we got this
Speaker 7: check for you for a million dollars. We were going
Speaker 7: to give you ten million dollars, but it was three
Speaker 7: am and we didn't want to wake you up.
Speaker 2: So now the checks a million.
Speaker 3: I'll see three.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I can't hit me up. I'm fine. Don't take
Speaker 1: the information. There's there are worse, worse things going on
Speaker 1: out there. But that lady wan Over, well she doesn't
Speaker 1: live in Venezuela. She's living in Spain because you know,
Speaker 1: security issues and all that stuff. But there were many
Speaker 1: others who won. There were Medicine Prize winners. One of
Speaker 1: them was on vacation in Yellowstone without cell service, and
Speaker 1: it took hours to find out two where the winners
Speaker 1: were from a little country that you may have heard of.
Speaker 1: That country is in fact called Japan.
Speaker 2: Japan.
Speaker 1: Delay there was one from Sweden and one one person.
Speaker 1: One person thought it was a telemarketer scam. I was like,
Speaker 1: we're here to tell you you won the Nobel Peace.
Speaker 3: Preze, the same thing with the heart keywords that they don't.
Speaker 1: Yeah, you're like, a, you're not gonna get me. This
Speaker 1: is clever, but you're not gonna get me. Let's see
Speaker 1: what we got here. A couple of emails to get

Speaker 1: they said, you somebody gets high and the other person
Speaker 1: takes that person's blood and Injecson in themselves all right,

Speaker 1: He says. I don't know nothing from nothing, but I
Speaker 1: think it's cold that because they're getting high indirectly. I
Speaker 1: remember years ago, I was watching one of those prison
Speaker 1: documentaries and they were talking about the hardcore junkies who

Speaker 1: as a responsible gun owner, he says and one with
Speaker 1: a concealed carry permit. I think they open carry people
Speaker 1: are dumb. Those are the people I tend to call
Speaker 1: amo sexual as their entire identity is wrapped up in
Speaker 1: the gun. Those people are rarely responsible and more likely
Speaker 1: to cause harm than good Wiggle Wiggle Pop Pop says Jay.
Speaker 1: Thank you Jay. We've got more to get into, but
Speaker 1: let's give it a break for a second when we
Speaker 1: come back. Trevor Noah. We all know Trevor Noah. I
Speaker 1: think you know. It's on the Daily Show for a
Speaker 1: while and stand up comic and whatnot from South Africa.
Speaker 1: I believe he dropped a joke in his new stand
Speaker 1: up routine that has some people very very upset, very
Speaker 1: very upset. I have the joke, I have the clip
Speaker 1: where you will play that when we come back to
Speaker 1: see what you think about it. And we got a
Speaker 1: lot more on a very busy Friday. So let's have
Speaker 1: some fun together, even you, Derek. That is coming up next.
Speaker 1: Some of the news junkie. Trevor Noah doing some stand
Speaker 1: up recently. I'll say, because this doesn't say the story
Speaker 1: I have. When he was actually doing this stand up bit,
Speaker 1: he was at the Comedy Cellar, which as far as
Speaker 1: I know, is in New York City. I believe that's
Speaker 1: where that is. But is that a chain too, you know,
Speaker 1: like laugh Factory, Funny Bone is Comedy Seller at chain.
Speaker 2: It just says it's a club in Manhattan.
Speaker 6: But it's like a well known famous, yeah yeah, staple
Speaker 6: of comedy.
Speaker 1: Or something like. You go there on any random night,
Speaker 1: you might see mega famous people. And if you don't
Speaker 1: know the name Trevor Trevor Noah, I mean he's been
Speaker 1: on The Daily Show, he was hosting that for a while.
Speaker 1: He's been a stand up comedian for a.
Speaker 3: Very long time, hosting What Oscar's.
Speaker 1: Grammy, He's been an award show host at least a
Speaker 1: handful of times. I think he's a comedian, So if
Speaker 1: you don't know him, that's what he is. And he
Speaker 1: was at the Comedy Seller and somebody filmed one of
Speaker 1: his jokes and they were like, this is out a lot,
Speaker 1: and it was obviously about Charlie Kirk. They allow filming
Speaker 1: at the Comedy Seller. I am too. Actually it's a
Speaker 1: really good shot too. It almost looks like it wasn't
Speaker 1: somebody's cell phone for real, Like it almost looks like
Speaker 1: Trevor Noah filmed this and was like, oh, did you
Speaker 1: hear what Trevor Noah said about Charlie Kirk. I just
Speaker 1: wanted to have like some buzz about it and get
Speaker 1: connected to his story because it's good footage. Maybe it's
Speaker 1: from a cell phone. Now, So here's the bit he did.
Speaker 1: And then you guys, can you know, decide if you're
Speaker 1: hurt and offended by this or not.
Speaker 4: Well, here comedians are shut themselves.
Speaker 2: Don't don't say anything about Charlie Cook.
Speaker 3: I wasn't going to say anyth about Yeah, but don't
Speaker 3: say anything about Charlie.
Speaker 2: I wasn't going to say anything about Charlie Cook. But don't.
Speaker 1: There's nothing funny about it on now you tested me.
Speaker 2: I mean the first.
Speaker 1: Red flag here. This is a grown man with a
Speaker 1: broken arm. He has his arm and a cast for
Speaker 1: the stand up gig. Usually that's some really bad behavior
Speaker 1: that led to that. It's just when you have a
Speaker 1: broken arm or leg, when you're an adult, like ninety
Speaker 1: percent of the people I've met in that circumstance, it's
Speaker 1: a red flag. Oh, I was chasing my friend's goat
Speaker 1: after a bottle of fireball whiskey, and I tripped over
Speaker 1: you know a you know a power wheel. Your friend
Speaker 1: doesn't have a goat uh And.
Speaker 3: I thought ago it was a lot.
Speaker 1: Of fireball, and I broke my arm as a growed acidult.
Speaker 3: So he's got to break the reason first broken arm.
Speaker 1: He might have, but he didn't get into it in
Speaker 1: this bit. This bit he was talking about how people
Speaker 1: were saying, don't make a joke about Charlie Kirk. Don't
Speaker 1: make a joke about Charlie. About Charlie.
Speaker 3: I wasn't gonna say anything about Charlie Kirk.
Speaker 1: But don't there's nothing funny about it. Oh, now you
Speaker 1: tested me.
Speaker 8: I mean, there's there's nothing funny about it. You can't
Speaker 8: say there's nothing funny about it. Now there's nothing fun No,
Speaker 8: don't say that because there's a comedian. I'll be like,
Speaker 8: I'm sure there's something funny about it. The guy was
Speaker 8: shot while defending guns. Do you understand how I'm not
Speaker 8: even writing that as a joke. As a human, you
Speaker 8: have to admit that is an incongruous funny thing that happens.
Speaker 8: You have there, You're like on stage people should have guns.
Speaker 1: The people are laughing.
Speaker 3: But it sounds like the same life every time it's
Speaker 3: in and out.
Speaker 6: I will tell you comedy sellers, that's their footage.
Speaker 2: Yeah, this is noting.
Speaker 6: Many comedians and comedy seller and that is from the
Speaker 6: house cameras.
Speaker 1: Who leaks that? Then? Right, like, who is it leaked? Well,
Speaker 1: everybody's saying that, hold on, what does the story say
Speaker 1: attached to the Oh I don't I had to censor it,
Speaker 1: so I don't know the actual origin of the clip
Speaker 1: on social media. But whoever filmed this? They were like, well,
Speaker 1: whoever film was? It was the comedy seller the film
Speaker 1: then obviously and they've released this. Maybe it was him,
Speaker 1: But they got the headlines they were looking for, and
Speaker 1: it says Trevor Noah jokes about Charlie Kirk's death and
Speaker 1: new stand up routine And they said Trevor Noah made
Speaker 1: a joke about the death of conservative activist Charlie Kirk
Speaker 1: and a stand up routine, talked about how this is
Speaker 1: a dangerous time for speech in America, then went on
Speaker 1: to make fun of the comedians that went to Saudi
Speaker 1: Arabian stuff. My response to this is like, Okay, you
Speaker 1: made a joke about Charlie Kirk. I would hope that
Speaker 1: if you were going to make a joke about something
Speaker 1: like that, you would make it funnier. And the premise
Speaker 1: is not really funny to me. It was not the
Speaker 1: whole thing that we just that's it. We just listened to.
Speaker 1: That's the clip that they released. So maybe he goes
Speaker 1: into more depth or something, but that and by the way,
Speaker 1: he's wrong. He wasn't in the act of He might
Speaker 1: have been a longer string, but he was talking about
Speaker 1: trans shooters in the United States when the person dating
Speaker 1: a trans person shot him in the throat and killed him.
Speaker 1: Who cares about that? Just a comedian do it a bit.
Speaker 1: I just didn't think it was that good. It's like,
Speaker 1: am I offended? No, I'm offended that it wasn't funnier.
Speaker 1: I would like it to be funnier. I think that
Speaker 1: would be great. I think if you're going to go
Speaker 1: for it, go like all the way with something like this,
Speaker 1: and I'll laugh along with you. But I just I
Speaker 1: don't really know if that hit. They were kind of laughing.
Speaker 1: They were laughing a little bit, I guess at the
Speaker 1: comedy seller. But tell me what you think. And it
Speaker 1: seems weird, like the whole releasing of the footage too,
Speaker 1: Like it almost seems like he was behind it.
Speaker 3: I'm not saying anything that was leaked out.
Speaker 1: Yeah, well the story that I saw was just about
Speaker 1: like him trying it. It says Trevor Noah jokes about
Speaker 1: Charlie Kirk's assassination during a stand up a time. It
Speaker 1: must have been regardless, but it's okay. If it was
Speaker 1: just posted to the comedy seller's page. They must have
Speaker 1: posted more than this. It woud seem weird if they
Speaker 1: just posted a Charlie Kirk joke.
Speaker 3: I don't know makes headlines.
Speaker 7: Yeah, I mean that's they're fishing for that, or he's
Speaker 7: fishing on foxnews dot com, which is one of the
Speaker 7: places running a story about this right now. They have
Speaker 7: a screenshot and they credited to YouTube slash Trevor Noah.
Speaker 7: So it sounds like he released this himself.
Speaker 1: Oh he might have. Maybe he put out like a
Speaker 1: longer clip from his set and then this was a
Speaker 1: part of it or something. But let us know what
Speaker 1: you think. And for me, I'm like, I don't care
Speaker 1: if you make offensive jokes or dark comedy. I like
Speaker 1: that stuff. I just didn't think it was particularly funny. Meanwhile,
Speaker 1: speaking of particularly funny over on SNL, where they just
Speaker 1: kicked off their fifty first season, the story suggests that
Speaker 1: the ratings weren't that fantastic. In fact, let me bring
Speaker 1: this up rating slip for SNL season fifty one debut,
Speaker 1: this story says from the Late Nighter. It says, according
Speaker 1: to Nielsen's Live plus same day data as measured by
Speaker 1: total viewers, the episode, hosted by Bad Bunny with Dojacat,
Speaker 1: was the show's lowest rated season premiere in years since
Speaker 1: Kendrick Lamar opened season forty eight to four point oh
Speaker 1: two million viewers. The news was a bit more rosy
Speaker 1: among eighteen to forty nine, they say in the article,
Speaker 1: but they were still down eighteen percent year over year,
Speaker 1: showing a slow start to this new season of SNL.
Speaker 1: The one that I said was just like they just
Speaker 1: lacked a lot of funny jokes. The top rated in
Speaker 1: the last couple of years, I guess for the fiftieth season.
Speaker 1: Let me see what the biggest one was, all right,
Speaker 1: The biggest one in the fifth season not really a surprise,
Speaker 1: especially because at the time she was so massive. John
Speaker 1: mullaney and Chapel Roon that was the biggest numbers that
Speaker 1: they put up in the last season.
Speaker 2: You think Chapel Roan was pulling more than John Mullaney.
Speaker 1: I think both of them are actually good in that situation.
Speaker 7: That John Mullaney is like first time hosting after rehab,
Speaker 7: it might.
Speaker 1: Have been yeah, which it was a big spot. It's
Speaker 1: six point five million.
Speaker 7: We saw him on tour and he was selling shirts
Speaker 7: that said John Mulaney. I saw him right after he
Speaker 7: got out of rehab.
Speaker 1: It's funny. I think he's good. That's fantastic. I think
Speaker 1: it was good on SNL two. He's good in the
Speaker 1: skits and whatnot. So they did well then with over
Speaker 1: six million and season fifty one debut with a new cast,
Speaker 1: new writers, new number is not so good so far.
Speaker 1: We'll see what you think again. Join us on the show.
Speaker 1: Send a dispatch over at thenewsjunkie dot com. All right,
Speaker 1: an email. Somebody's telling me a very disturbing story. We
Speaker 1: have to get to that at some point in time.
Speaker 1: We got some school issues to talk about.
Speaker 2: But when we come back.
Speaker 1: A new feature on the ride sharing service that you
Speaker 1: may just use, which has greatly alarmed a few users
Speaker 1: of said service. What's going on, and why are people
Speaker 1: upset about this? Will you like the feature? I'll tell
Speaker 1: you what it is that is coming up next on
Speaker 1: the News Junkie. To clear things up. I went and
Speaker 1: checked during the break Trevor Noah. I guess, does in
Speaker 1: fact post stand up segments to his YouTube channel at
Speaker 1: Trevor Noah And he posted it. Yeah, it was like
Speaker 1: minutes long. Yeah, and it says Saudi Comedy Festival, Charlie
Speaker 1: Kirk and then dash behind the scenes. So I guess
Speaker 1: it's like a mixture of stand up and like some
Speaker 1: other stuff for him in a in a video that
Speaker 1: he posted. Maybe he routinely does this kind of stuff.
Speaker 1: I just there's a lot of like podcasts and whatnot
Speaker 1: on his YouTube channel. But actually that's only well no, no, no,
Speaker 1: there's more. There's some other stand up of him in Australia.
Speaker 1: So he posts these kind of bits every now and
Speaker 1: then posts a lot of shorts too, like of like
Speaker 1: ships of his stand up. Yeah, and by the way,
Speaker 1: his YouTube channel does great. Good for you, Trevor no
Speaker 1: congratulations on that front. But somebody said, do you think
Speaker 1: it was improv I don't know. A lot of times
Speaker 1: comedians will go out there and just try to work
Speaker 1: out things in real time.
Speaker 3: I got an improv vibe from it. He's done plenty
Speaker 3: of stand up.
Speaker 6: But even if it wasn't the case, I mean, he
Speaker 6: did post it himself, certainly no leaked.
Speaker 3: He was I imagining ready.
Speaker 6: For some sort of backlash or at least Fox News
Speaker 6: to pick it up and give it a headline.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, I just look at stuff like that
Speaker 1: and I go I just didn't think it was super clever.
Speaker 1: It's not that I'm offended in the topic. Nobody's going
Speaker 1: to arrest you. He's not been arrested or apprehended, or
Speaker 1: it was not even like a big uprising about his comments.
Speaker 1: To me, just seemed like it didn't really land that well,
Speaker 1: at least not for me. But these ride sharing apps, now,
Speaker 1: I know that both of you tend to use Uber
Speaker 1: I think more, but I think you might use lyft
Speaker 1: every now and then. Maybe they got a good deal
Speaker 1: in that a while.
Speaker 7: If there's a huge weight for Uber, like if I
Speaker 7: if I, especially if they don't warn me about it,
Speaker 7: if it says like you can probably get this in
Speaker 7: four to five minutes, and then it's like your driver
Speaker 7: has just accepted the ride, and these fourteen minutes.
Speaker 2: Away, I'll be like, well, what's on Lyft right now?
Speaker 1: I want Lyft to do well, so it makes me
Speaker 1: want to use Lyft because I want Lyft to be
Speaker 1: there to keep the balance for Uber. You know what
Speaker 1: I'm saying, Like, I want well, I want to feel
Speaker 1: the competition from Lyft, so I want them to kind
Speaker 1: of be there.
Speaker 7: In reality, I don't know that they're doing much to
Speaker 7: curb the idea that a lot of drivers just do both.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean like there's a lot of people who
Speaker 1: do that and then the food delivery and all this stuff.
Speaker 1: But Lyft pushed out a test on their app and
Speaker 1: it was not popular. The customers did not like it.
Speaker 1: The drivers I think were fans, okay, and they said,
Speaker 1: while this experiment showed early signs of improving the marketplace
Speaker 1: and helping riders to get where they need to go
Speaker 1: on time, we heard our customers loud and clear over
Speaker 1: at Lyft and canceled the experiment or experiment. And here's
Speaker 1: what I want to tell you what the feature was,
Speaker 1: just to see what you guys think about this and
Speaker 1: whether or not a ceiling at Tona, whether or not
Speaker 1: you would like this. The feature was only available for
Speaker 1: lift drivers, okay, and the lift drivers could see the
Speaker 1: tipping habits the customers that were searching for for rides.
Speaker 1: And here's a screenshot from our SASH lift drivers of
Speaker 1: what it looked like for those you on the stream,
Speaker 1: I'll read it for everybody else. It says there's somebody
Speaker 1: seeking a ride, the ride is twenty five miles, the
Speaker 1: price is thirty dollars in twenty six cents, and then
Speaker 1: below it says rider is usually ready at pickup. That's
Speaker 1: a good thing to have on there. That's probably a
Speaker 1: pain in the ass for these drivers. And it says
Speaker 1: rider tipped on eighty eight percent of rides.
Speaker 2: It doesn't say what you tipped.
Speaker 1: It doesn't say that you tipped a lot or a little.
Speaker 6: Bit, but it just holds the driver didn't tip on
Speaker 6: certain things like I would love to see the bad
Speaker 6: reviews or the bad user profile that gets to the drivers.
Speaker 6: And I also, if you're testing us out with drivers,
Speaker 6: like why wouldn't you test it out with the customers,
Speaker 6: say hey, by the way, your drivers are getting the
Speaker 6: information of what you don't tip, or if you don't
Speaker 6: show up in time, well, what would you do?
Speaker 1: What would you want to show to the customers. Would
Speaker 1: you want to show how often the right the drivers
Speaker 1: get tipped.
Speaker 6: No, in the sense of like, hey, you're everyone knows
Speaker 6: you don't ever tip, so.
Speaker 3: Good luck finding a ride.
Speaker 7: But in h I would like to go a nice
Speaker 7: way much like Uber kind of gate kept this for
Speaker 7: a while. I would like to know what it's telling
Speaker 7: them about me, like, oh, have I tipped? I would
Speaker 7: like to think I've tiped one hundred percent of the times.
Speaker 7: I'm sure there's been a time or two where I've
Speaker 7: like forgotten to hit the button, or it's fallen through
Speaker 7: the cracks or there. It's very often the case that
Speaker 7: I go to book an uber and realize I haven't
Speaker 7: tipped for the uber that I took like a week
Speaker 7: or two ago, and then I'll so I'll tip late. Yeah,
Speaker 7: but I still do it.
Speaker 1: Well, all right, let me ask you guys this question.
Speaker 1: Then I want to have what they're seeing. But as
Speaker 1: as a driver, would you want this? Because as a driver,
Speaker 1: I would one hundred percent want this. I'd be like, yeah,
Speaker 1: I want to know, especially I like that ready to
Speaker 1: usually ready a pickup thing. If I was a driver,
Speaker 1: but I would want to know, like, Okay, this person,
Speaker 1: there's there's four people seeking rides, and one of the
Speaker 1: people who's seeking a ride gives tips eighty eight percent
Speaker 1: of the time. That's pretty good. I have a choice
Speaker 1: between all these rides. I think I'll weigh that one,
Speaker 1: and that one seems better. And for me, it doesn't
Speaker 1: seem like it's it's not really revealing. It's not like, hey,
Speaker 1: this person is cheap. When they do tip, here's how
Speaker 1: much they tip. It's just did you tip anything on
Speaker 1: on the rides that you were getting picked up on?
Speaker 1: But the backlash from customers was pretty fierce, and they said, nope,
Speaker 1: we're not doing it anymore.
Speaker 3: We're sorry, we'll roll that whole thing back, right, I mean, because.
Speaker 6: I imagine there was a lot of drivers that were
Speaker 6: denying people's rides.
Speaker 1: But probably yeah.
Speaker 6: Then again, where is this coming to play? Where does
Speaker 6: this come into play when you have like a concert
Speaker 6: that lets out. Now, is it going to be even
Speaker 6: more difficult to find a ride? How does that change
Speaker 6: for anybody who I don't know, never rides it. But
Speaker 6: petty caps are seventy dollars.
Speaker 1: I think you already hit on what the biggest change
Speaker 1: would be the biggest change would be a lot of
Speaker 1: people who weren't tipping are not going to get their
Speaker 1: rides piping. Like just like if you add, well, that's something,
Speaker 1: and then they should be tipping. I mean, I agree
Speaker 1: with you, I agree with you, but but it also
Speaker 1: there's a.
Speaker 7: Huge customer backlash. It's like, who's lashing back the cheap passes? No,
Speaker 7: they just don't want that to be known.
Speaker 1: Customers are well, maybe you could say that's cheap, but
Speaker 1: they just don't want the information out there how often
Speaker 1: they tip or do not tip their riders. Everybody seems
Speaker 1: okay with some of the information like your star rating,
Speaker 1: et cetera, et cetera.
Speaker 7: But I'm fine with the riders knowing that I tip
Speaker 7: all the time, or the drivers knowing that, but.
Speaker 1: They don't even know if it's just a dollar every time.
Speaker 1: You could tip a dollar every time, they'd be time
Speaker 1: be the inherent flaw in this situation. But I still
Speaker 1: think it's a step in the right direction.
Speaker 6: We've known their information, you can see their rating, how
Speaker 6: many rides they've had.
Speaker 3: Yeah, here's the thing.
Speaker 6: I feel like I don't want to be a little
Speaker 6: puppet with the uber, you know, being a petal the
Speaker 6: experience to make yourself more transparent.
Speaker 1: Probably not, They're just counting money over there. Jeffrey on
Speaker 1: YouTube says this comment section is great to see who's
Speaker 1: a cheap bad It separates the cheap folks for the
Speaker 1: folks that are tipping more. You think, well, let us
Speaker 1: know what you think. Send us a dispatch, record your
Speaker 1: thoughts a video or audio dispatch over at thenewschunkie dot com.
Speaker 1: Right now, All right, let's see you real quick. Oh,
Speaker 1: I wanted to get into this email. We have just
Speaker 1: a minute or two to get to it. So let's
Speaker 1: talk to Patty and her email or his I don't know.
Speaker 1: Patty's email to tips at the newsjunkie dot com. Ages ago,
Speaker 1: a friend and I went to a late showing of
Speaker 1: a movie in Dallas, Texas. This is following up on
Speaker 1: another email about violence and Dallas. The parking lot was full,
Speaker 1: so we were stuck in one of the furthest parking spots.
Speaker 1: After the movie, we walked to get to the car.
Speaker 1: I got in the car, turned on the ignition and
Speaker 1: as I was doing that, a big truck pulled up
Speaker 1: and the driver said something to my friend. The guy
Speaker 1: was waving something that was reflecting light. My friend opened
Speaker 1: the door and said, he wants your purse or he's
Speaker 1: going to shoot us. Subconsciously, a truck somebody in a
Speaker 1: big truck pulled up to their car in the parking
Speaker 1: lot of the movie theater and they said they want
Speaker 1: your person. They're gonna shoot you. Subconsciously, I emptied the
Speaker 1: contents of my purse, handed it to my friend, who
Speaker 1: in turn handed to the man of the truck, and
Speaker 1: they drove off. The security guard in the overflow parking
Speaker 1: lot was kidnapped. It was napping. Excuse me. We did
Speaker 1: find two Dallas police officers and made a report. Come
Speaker 1: to find out, the same person killed seven other people
Speaker 1: that weekend.
Speaker 2: Wo which is crazy.
Speaker 1: We are lucky, but I'm terrified at guns to the
Speaker 1: point that I hyperventilate. I don't understand why somebody would
Speaker 1: find it necessary to carry an assault rifle in a
Speaker 1: grocery store. They say about open carrying. Interesting point. Thank
Speaker 1: you for your story. I appreciate that. Always love the
Speaker 1: insight in different perspectives, and we can hear yours perhaps
Speaker 1: today on the show. Tips tips at thenewsjunkie dot com.
Speaker 1: All right, when we come back, some information about some schools,
Speaker 1: including one that people say, this is just disturbing what
Speaker 1: this teacher did. Disturbing what this teacher did, but nothing
Speaker 1: is being done about it.
Speaker 2: What did this teacher do? Wait till you hear.
Speaker 1: This is coming up next on the news Junkie. Every
Speaker 1: time I bitch and moan and complain about traffic, I
Speaker 1: see some of these stories about how this plays out
Speaker 1: in other countries, and I'm like, man, we got a
Speaker 1: good compared to some of these other places with traffic.
Speaker 6: I mean, and sometimes and there are some places I'm
Speaker 6: just going to refer to when I drove in Italy
Speaker 6: and there was no traffic lights, there was nothing that
Speaker 6: I could consider.
Speaker 3: Familiar.
Speaker 6: When I came to driving in the US with crazy
Speaker 6: traffic like I drive.
Speaker 3: In Miami when I go to visit my parents. Instead,
Speaker 3: it would like I'm going to follow that little moped
Speaker 3: guy because he seems to know what he's doing.
Speaker 6: Right, was insane, But everyone still got to their destinations,
Speaker 6: I think.
Speaker 1: Right, yeah, I mean, some of our roads have nothing
Speaker 1: on what you see in other places, like LA traffic
Speaker 1: does suck. If you've ever known sitting in measurable or
Speaker 1: just the roads are very, very old, and so they
Speaker 1: feel narrow at times, like the Golden Gate Bridge felt
Speaker 1: narrow af.
Speaker 7: Just because San Francisco. Yeah, because when they built it,
Speaker 7: cars were smaller.
Speaker 1: Right right, yeah, I mean, and you can't exactly change
Speaker 1: that with any ease at this point in time. It's
Speaker 1: like kind of set. But I mean, there's even I
Speaker 1: heard an interview one time with the Blumhouse guy and
Speaker 1: he was talking about how he bought a van and
Speaker 1: retro fitted it into a mobile office with internet and stuff,
Speaker 1: so that in his commute back and forth it took
Speaker 1: him over an hour each way. And he's like, I
Speaker 1: didn't want to waste two hours of my day not
Speaker 1: being able to get things accomplished, so he like hires
Speaker 1: a driver and has a little office in the back
Speaker 1: of a van to get things done. You're like, damn, man,
Speaker 1: this is rough in someplaces. Still nothing on this. This
Speaker 1: is China, okay. And they had a traffic jam on
Speaker 1: a thirty six lane highway all right, a thirty six
Speaker 1: lane highway in China. There were ten million cars in
Speaker 1: the backup.
Speaker 6: I'm sorry, I don't understand how this works. What if
Speaker 6: you're in the middle.
Speaker 1: If you're in the look at this.
Speaker 3: I have so much anxiety looking at this picture right now?
Speaker 3: Is this Ai?
Speaker 1: No, this is for real? This is this road in China.
Speaker 1: They have a big holiday going on right now in
Speaker 1: China and ten million cars full time hit the roads,
Speaker 1: and the roads are like complete gridlock, including a road
Speaker 1: that has a thirty six lane highway.
Speaker 3: That turns into a four lane highway.
Speaker 2: It's weird.
Speaker 7: It's like it's just like a thirty six lane toll booth. Yeah,
Speaker 7: and then they all have to squeeze back.
Speaker 6: It looks like a small intestine that goes into your
Speaker 6: stomach if you're looking at a body diagram.
Speaker 7: What is so wrong with their tolling system that they
Speaker 7: need to stretch it out that far only to bring
Speaker 7: it back in like that?
Speaker 3: Yeah, making me it's a nightmare.
Speaker 1: It's very very That's so much worse than anything I've
Speaker 1: ever seen in my life. And I'm telling you all,
Speaker 1: if the interstate is backed up and it's it's thirty minutes,
Speaker 1: I'll be like, this is ridiculous. What's going on here?
Speaker 3: Who chooses to go on that in China? Tell me more?
Speaker 1: No? I mean please, I play so I pay so
Speaker 1: much more for a ticket to fly, even though I
Speaker 1: like to fly on a day like that, just to
Speaker 1: avoid being in a car in the sea of vehicles there.
Speaker 1: What a nightmare. All right, let's go to schools here,
Speaker 1: because there is a story that started to get some
Speaker 1: attention and parents are like, why are you doing anything
Speaker 1: about this teacher. There's a teacher that's done something and
Speaker 1: they want the teacher to be dealt with. But I
Speaker 1: guess it wasn't technically illegal. This is what the headline
Speaker 1: says from Channel six. It says, Disturbed Florida responds to
Speaker 1: Semitol County school's handling of employee with harmful thoughts toward child. Now,
Speaker 1: I'll make this make sense in just a moment. But
Speaker 1: this happened at Stable Point Elementary and it was about
Speaker 1: a teacher, right, So there was a teacher who went
Speaker 1: to the resource officer and this particular teacher said, hey,
Speaker 1: I got a problem here. It says he's self reported
Speaker 1: to the school resource office and then quit, leaving family
Speaker 1: staff in the community in the dark for days. Parents
Speaker 1: were blindsided, educators felt abandoned, and the superintendent's office seemed
Speaker 1: more concerned with optics than immediate safety. This was a
Speaker 1: teacher at the school twenty three years old who reported
Speaker 1: to a school resource officer saying that he had thought
Speaker 1: about cutting a child's throat with a knife when he
Speaker 1: became frustrated with the student. So the person's in the
Speaker 1: classroom and they're like, they started having visions of like
Speaker 1: attacking this kid with a knife and going after their throat,
Speaker 1: and they became frustrated with the child, obviously, and then
Speaker 1: brought it to the professionals at the school, which technically
Speaker 1: that's what you're supposed to do, I think, And he
Speaker 1: said he also reported that he thought about carrying out
Speaker 1: a shooting at the school. According to the Sheriff's office,
Speaker 1: the parents like, why haven't you done anything about this?
Speaker 1: How many times have you swept something out of the
Speaker 1: rug to protect yourself our children? And are educators deserve
Speaker 1: proactive protection, not reactive damage control? But what exactly are
Speaker 1: you supposed to do here? Like if a teacher says
Speaker 1: they were having these horrible thoughts, you literally want the
Speaker 1: thought police. The teacher didn't do anything. The teacher went
Speaker 1: to the folks in the school that they thought would
Speaker 1: help them out. But the job there was to get
Speaker 1: them away from any kind of danger, make them feel
Speaker 1: like they don't have to do this anymore. Boots, he says,
Speaker 1: Thank goodness, you did the right thing. Yeah, that's great,
Speaker 1: Yeah you did, And I'm glad this person was like,
Speaker 1: I'm having these messed up thoughts. I got to do
Speaker 1: something about this, but the parents seem to want more.
Speaker 1: And I just don't know what else you would get
Speaker 1: out of this, Like, I don't know what you would
Speaker 1: even arrest the guy for. It would literally be thought crime,
Speaker 1: because like imagine right now is having some horrible thought
Speaker 1: about attacking somebody, and I was like, I need to
Speaker 1: go see a professional, and I we go see a professional,
Speaker 1: and then when I see the professional, they go, you
Speaker 1: need to quit that job. I stop working at the job.
Speaker 1: And then they're like, no, you had those thoughts, so
Speaker 1: you should go to jail. That is Yeah, that's a strange,
Speaker 1: strange precedent to set I think in these circumstances. Let's
Speaker 1: see what this story says about this.
Speaker 11: From Channel six, after an employee at a Seminole County
Speaker 11: elementary school self reported concerning thoughts and then resigned. I'm
Speaker 11: Katherine Silver, you'r a Seminol County community correspond get him
Speaker 11: caper hearing from the head of Florida's Department of Education
Speaker 11: on the matter that made him send a memo to
Speaker 11: every superintendent in the state.
Speaker 12: My initial reaction is that the facts here are extremely
Speaker 12: disturbing and frankly unacceptable.
Speaker 11: Florida's Department of Education commissioner didn't hold back when speaking
Speaker 11: one on one with New six or in this memo
Speaker 11: he sent Thursday to every superintendent in the state.
Speaker 1: So you sent out a memo that says caution against
Speaker 1: hiring certain candidates, and they talk about how the teacher
Speaker 1: was upset with a six year old student. That was
Speaker 1: the age of the child who started all this. It
Speaker 1: was a little girl too.
Speaker 7: I think I kept throwing the paper balls at him.
Speaker 6: Okay, if that's what leads you to have un I
Speaker 6: don't know, yeah thoughts, Yeah, right then this is I mean,
Speaker 6: I'm glad he acknowledged that, but I do fear somebody
Speaker 6: cutting them off in traffic.
Speaker 3: I mean paper balls at you.
Speaker 6: But if something bad happens, what's your snapping point.
Speaker 1: You have to have a bigger snapping point than that,
Speaker 1: by by many lengths. Because this is just run of
Speaker 1: the mill stuff that happens in classrooms. Imagine being so
Speaker 1: triggered by a kid throwing paper balls at you that
Speaker 1: you'd like go punish the kid. And six year olds
Speaker 1: could be like a pain in the ass and all
Speaker 1: that stuff, but like, holy cow, he's actually having thoughts
Speaker 1: of doing these horrific things and like shooting the school up, Like.
Speaker 6: Oh god, how many paper balls were thrown and how
Speaker 6: often been bad? There is there a breaking point where
Speaker 6: a little six year old, and you're not doing anything
Speaker 6: about it, throws enough paper balls at you for an
Speaker 6: extended period of time that you have to step away
Speaker 6: for a second.
Speaker 3: Could you ever see either of you two and or Sean?
Speaker 1: Yeah, definitely. Like if I was a teacher in a
Speaker 1: classroom and some kid with god awful parents starts hammering
Speaker 1: me with paper balls, I would probably if I snapped
Speaker 1: ip be like is bitch? Or you know, let's say
Speaker 1: say something like say something aggressive to the kid. But
Speaker 1: that is very different than saying you were having thoughts
Speaker 1: of like violent retribution on not even just the kid,
Speaker 1: the whole freaking classroom. This this teacher was talking about,
Speaker 1: But it still doesn't seem like an actual law. Let's
Speaker 1: put that on the MO list, And let's see what
Speaker 1: MO says about this.
Speaker 6: Teachers, how many legally, how many paper balls gut a
Speaker 6: six year old throughout you without punging them in the face.
Speaker 1: No, the question is, is just seemingly having thoughts about
Speaker 1: stuff and then approaching somebody, is that enough to get
Speaker 1: you in trouble with the law? Like to draw another
Speaker 1: another example would be like if I said, oh my god,
Speaker 1: I can't stop having these daydreams about robbing a bank
Speaker 1: violently and I want to I want to go commit
Speaker 1: an armed robbery.
Speaker 2: I'm not doing it.
Speaker 1: I haven't actually done it. Can I be charged?
Speaker 6: And there's something because you have other you know, outlets
Speaker 6: were like, if you're thinking of anything, call this hotline,
Speaker 6: talk to somebody. Don't get to that point. Are the
Speaker 6: resources there or are you gonna get in trouble for it?
Speaker 1: Well, they he did use the resources. He literally went
Speaker 1: to the resource officer and said, like, I'm having these issues.
Speaker 1: I was thinking of these terrible thoughts. And I would
Speaker 1: compare this too, and I wonder if Moe would bring
Speaker 1: this up. But there is a guy in a famous
Speaker 1: story who got arrested. I don't know if we can
Speaker 1: find out what ended up happening to this guy. But
Speaker 1: he had written a lot online about cannibalism, and he
Speaker 1: had like a fantasy in the cannibalism world, and he
Speaker 1: didn't do anything as far as I know, but he
Speaker 1: wrote about it a bunch, and they were trying to
Speaker 1: go after this person, and they filed charges against him
Speaker 1: and everything, as I recall, And so that got to
Speaker 1: the same level where it's like, ooh, just thoughts that sometime,
Speaker 1: by the way, sometimes you don't really have control over
Speaker 1: your thoughts, what's going on in your brain, and you know.
Speaker 2: How that reaction is going.
Speaker 1: Yeah, but it's good that he shared them. Is it
Speaker 1: not bringing those thoughts to the school resource office? Stop
Speaker 1: this before this guy spiraled more? I think let us
Speaker 1: know what you think. Send us a dispatch over at
Speaker 1: thenewsjunkie dot com. If given the choice, do you want
Speaker 1: the teacher to just shove that down and not say
Speaker 1: anything or go to the resource officer? I think you
Speaker 1: want them one hundred percent to go to the resource office.
Speaker 3: I think so too.
Speaker 6: I appreciate that he removed himself from the situation.
Speaker 3: I can't help.
Speaker 6: But feel like, what is going is he just the
Speaker 6: taking time bomb at this point.
Speaker 1: Maybe yeah, he's not in the school anymore, but he
Speaker 1: still could be.
Speaker 6: What of their jobs are gonna get where he's not
Speaker 6: pushed a little bit, so someone there was one paperball
Speaker 6: at him and then.
Speaker 1: What Yeah, he's definitely still could be a threat no
Speaker 1: matter where he is. But the question is what do
Speaker 1: you do? So we'll see what everybody thinks about that.
Speaker 1: Send us a dispatch over on the website. It's thenewsjunkie
Speaker 1: dot com. All right, umm, we actually have a parent
Speaker 1: chiming in. I think let's see what they're saying here.
Speaker 1: Here's gel go ahead.
Speaker 13: This is in reference to the forty Department Education coming
Speaker 13: out with a mandate with Stable Point Elementary being in
Speaker 13: the news. The parents were left unaware for nine days
Speaker 13: without any information when a report broke out and all
Speaker 13: the parents shared the information and nothing was shared back
Speaker 13: to the parents until the news station showed up. The
Speaker 13: principal is blaming the superintendent. The superintendent is blaming the principal,
Speaker 13: and this guy was hired by Samuel County. However, he
Speaker 13: did have priors and pickups and interactions with the police.
Speaker 13: So the parents want to know that this can never
Speaker 13: happen again.
Speaker 1: Okay, all right, Well that that would go into and
Speaker 1: this has been an issue recently, that would go into
Speaker 1: the act of hiring employees at these schools, and you
Speaker 1: just had not that long ago the guy who was
Speaker 1: like the administrator of a school was arrested for being
Speaker 1: in the country legally and had a gun crime in
Speaker 1: his background as well, and made it all the way
Speaker 1: up to the administrative level at the school that he was,
Speaker 1: and they hired this guy after doing background checks and
Speaker 1: stuff on him. I don't know what the processes is
Speaker 1: processes are at these schools to hire people. But if
Speaker 1: he had run into the police and there was any
Speaker 1: violence and any priors like that, you have every right
Speaker 1: to be pissed off as a parent, you do.
Speaker 6: I mean, that kind of blows my mind that that
Speaker 6: does not come up. You can't even rent an apartment
Speaker 6: without priors like that popping up.
Speaker 1: And I think that I would have some concern if
Speaker 1: I was a parent at that school for that issue.
Speaker 1: But being left unaware and not hearing the information for
Speaker 1: nine days, I only.
Speaker 2: Tossed this out to ask.
Speaker 1: The question, not because you know, I'm swaying anybody in
Speaker 1: either way, but the school resource officer. If you go
Speaker 1: to them and you say that you're having these sort
Speaker 1: of feelings, I would imagine is that possibly private information
Speaker 1: that the school can't Uh So.
Speaker 7: What I heard is that they baker acted it him.
Speaker 7: He might have might have requested to be baker acted,
Speaker 7: at which point I think, I don't know, I didn't
Speaker 7: read that part of the story, but that that may
Speaker 7: have factored into them not being able to disclose what
Speaker 7: he said.
Speaker 2: Okay, yeah, all right.
Speaker 1: So I think it's like this awkward situation. But if
Speaker 1: if they hired him when he shouldn't have been in
Speaker 1: that position to begin with, because he had some violence
Speaker 1: in his past, then you know, that's a whole different
Speaker 1: thing that I would be worried about that too. And
Speaker 1: thank you, Jell. Appreciate the dispatch. Send yours now. Go
Speaker 1: to thenewsjunkie dot com. We'll get to a voter who's
Speaker 1: in big trouble in just a moment. Why would this
Speaker 1: person do? And the most unhinged Halloween display so far
Speaker 1: that's coming up, The next episode's coming up, and all
Speaker 1: of that is just within this hour. It's coming up next.
Speaker 1: And the news junkie man, I just impressed myself talking
Speaker 1: and banning somebody one hand, one hand banning and one
Speaker 1: hand and on one hand holding the notes that I'm
Speaker 1: looking at. And then bam, all of it happened at
Speaker 1: the same time, just like that. All right, we we
Speaker 1: have a lot to get into, so we'll get to
Speaker 1: some of your feedback here momentarily send those dispatches in.
Speaker 1: But I've been enthralled with these Halloween stories that we've
Speaker 1: been talking about so far. We had the guy who
Speaker 1: got arrested, and we're gonna ask MO about this today
Speaker 1: because he had is it best to say like effigys
Speaker 1: or like you know, like body bags.
Speaker 2: With yeah, names, positions.
Speaker 3: Yea mayor secretary, yeah, and uh?
Speaker 1: And then what did somebody called it a gallows like
Speaker 1: a like a hanging type thing. Yeah.
Speaker 2: Uh. And then someone else.
Speaker 6: Thought it was the thing he used to lift engines
Speaker 6: out of cars.
Speaker 1: But in this case it was Mary Tucker. It was
Speaker 1: to be a gallows. Yeah, So he had a fake
Speaker 1: hanging set up. He had these body bags. The bodybags
Speaker 1: didn't have people's particular names as far as I know,
Speaker 1: but it had some initials or job titles on them,
Speaker 1: and it would say like mayor in a body bag,
Speaker 1: and he got arrested for it. And then we had
Speaker 1: the people who didn't get arrested and their Halloween display,
Speaker 1: which was epic. Looked like their entire house was on fire.
Speaker 1: It was incredible, and a lot of people called the
Speaker 1: cops because they thought there was a fire in this house.
Speaker 1: So now we've got the latest, and I guess this
Speaker 1: guy is trying to go for a Guinness World Record
Speaker 1: for his display. He says, See, Lane, I see your
Speaker 1: skeleton set up in your front yard, and I raise
Speaker 1: you a couple here, all right, I'm going to go
Speaker 1: a step further, this guy says. And I gotta tell you,
Speaker 1: I don't know how I would feel if I was
Speaker 1: his neighbor or something, but I am super impressed at
Speaker 1: this guy display. This one is of a different type.
Speaker 1: It's not like they're going to arrest him, at least
Speaker 1: not just yet. Here's what's happening in Kentucky with this
Speaker 1: guy's entire Halloween house set Halloween.
Speaker 14: More and more homes are getting really spooky right with
Speaker 14: their decorations while they're preparing for all those trigger treaters.
Speaker 14: And there's a home in northern Kentucky that's actually trying
Speaker 14: to set a world record with their display. Okay, Alexis
Speaker 14: Martan is there right in front of the home right now.
Speaker 14: All right, so it's not spooky during the day, but
Speaker 14: what's to look like?
Speaker 2: Big wolf? So right now I'm at this home on
Speaker 2: Village Green.
Speaker 1: Oh my god, the whole front yard is just covered
Speaker 1: in skeletons and Halloween designs and gargoyles. Multiple of the
Speaker 1: big tall skeletons, like Sea Lane has. I don't see
Speaker 1: a skeleton dog like you have, but they got one
Speaker 1: of the big tall shirts there. I'm sure he's got plenty.
Speaker 1: Their tall skeleton is purple. I have never seen one
Speaker 1: that was colored like this. We've just seen the wild
Speaker 1: Body regular one twenty fifteen. Dude, Seriously, hey, how much
Speaker 1: are those big skeletons these days?
Speaker 3: Twenty fifteen it's two five man, get with it.
Speaker 7: In twenty fifteen that would have been offensive, So I
Speaker 7: stand by it.
Speaker 1: How much of those big tall skeletons four hundred bucks,
Speaker 1: two or three hundred bucks.
Speaker 3: Maybe we're like, oh, that's not bad, that's not that bad.
Speaker 2: He's got a lot.
Speaker 7: I'm just guessing, and I can't just go to home
Speaker 7: depot dot com and.
Speaker 6: Yeah, you be think is that they were hard to find.
Speaker 6: They sold out a lot last year. Now I feel
Speaker 6: like readily available.
Speaker 1: I know. But what's crazy now, Sabrina, is it's not
Speaker 1: just that they fill up that whole section with all
Speaker 1: the Halloween stuff. They're going full on in the Christmas
Speaker 1: world too, Christmas decorations, crazy at home depot, those and
Speaker 1: those kind of stores. Three hundred bucks. Okay, so this
Speaker 1: guy has a lot of them. All right, let's arrive.
Speaker 11: In Cold Springs and you're right, Forsha, it's not as
Speaker 11: spooky yet, but you're about to seal.
Speaker 1: But it looks like at night.
Speaker 2: This is one of a kind. Incredible.
Speaker 3: Today, I got to talk to the.
Speaker 11: Man Halloween Herm, and he tells me not only is
Speaker 11: he trying to set up that world record, but he's
Speaker 11: also trying to raise money for kids here in Kentucky.
Speaker 1: Oh Man, that makes it hard to hate as a neighbor.
Speaker 1: Is this the guy right here, He's got like a
Speaker 1: whole suit on and stuff. All right? This see what
Speaker 1: he says.
Speaker 15: Every year we aspire to get bigger and greater as
Speaker 15: we continue to tell our story and just try to
Speaker 15: spread joy for decades.
Speaker 1: Halloween, Herm is his name. He calls his neighborhood or
Speaker 1: is his yard. In particular, dead Spring Cemetery, Cold Springs
Speaker 1: family has been putting on a massive Halloween show.
Speaker 3: For the whole commuty.
Speaker 1: That's cool, it's everywhere. Who creates the display says his
Speaker 1: mom started it all when he was just a little boy.
Speaker 15: He lost her in ninety nine to cancer, so the
Speaker 15: day she passed, August eighteenth, is the day we usually
Speaker 15: start setting up in her memory.
Speaker 3: The display is called dead Spring Cemetery.
Speaker 2: In each year Halloween, Herm picks a different charity to
Speaker 2: support man.
Speaker 1: We used to have one house by us that was
Speaker 1: like this, and I believe it was called very clever
Speaker 1: name the Christmas House. I think I think it was
Speaker 1: called the Christmas House. And you could stop and you would,
Speaker 1: and the neighbors got in on it a little bit,
Speaker 1: but you could like stop your impark your car and
Speaker 1: you could walk down the street and see this stunning
Speaker 1: Christmas display.
Speaker 7: We had a house fighting at in the next neighborhood
Speaker 7: when I was a kid, and you could actually go
Speaker 7: inside because they had the garage and the living room
Speaker 7: all decorated crazy as well. They had like a guest
Speaker 7: book and it was insane. Yeah, But did they have
Speaker 7: that for only Christmas? As far as I know, Yeah, because.
Speaker 1: I don't ever remember anybody going this crazy on Halloween.
Speaker 7: When I don't remember there being a lot of decorating
Speaker 7: for Halloween when I was a kid, you know, a
Speaker 7: couple of pumpkins, you know, maybe some some fake spider
Speaker 7: webs or something, and I don't think people went as
Speaker 7: crazy as they do now.
Speaker 1: It's wild how how far this is all gone. And
Speaker 1: he's trying to set again a world record in his
Speaker 1: latest setup. It's all in tribute to his mother, and
Speaker 1: they're trying to get it for the amount of props.
Speaker 1: They said they have over three hundred total props in
Speaker 1: their Halloween display and he wants that to be a
Speaker 1: Guinness World record. Good luck out there a lot of competition.
Speaker 1: People get clever. I got now not one, but two neighborhoods.
Speaker 1: Two neighbors Excuse me, not neighborhoods. I've got. That makes
Speaker 1: it sound like I have different houses.
Speaker 7: You are rich, you neighborhood Richie rich for multiple neighborhoods.
Speaker 1: I got one neighborhood, but I've got two neighbors around
Speaker 1: me that do those clever displays where they put the
Speaker 1: skulls on the lawn and the skeletons and they pose
Speaker 1: them and then each day, each couple of days, they
Speaker 1: change up the poses and add props and so it's fun.
Speaker 1: I love it.
Speaker 7: Man.
Speaker 1: People are just enjoying themselves. People are out there in
Speaker 1: the real world enjoying themselves. We should support that. We
Speaker 1: took we took young Jackson to a farm last weekend.
Speaker 1: Oh boy, and you know, to pick some sunflowers and
Speaker 1: other stuff. And he wrote rides and this isn't like
Speaker 1: a Jackson's living out the rest of his life on
Speaker 1: a farm.
Speaker 7: No, no, no, no, no, okay, he's very much still with us.
Speaker 7: But no, they had like they were selling pumpkins. They
Speaker 7: had all different kinds of different sizes, shapes, colors of pumpkins,
Speaker 7: and they had these things. They had this thing on
Speaker 7: the menu that said permanent pumpkin. And I was like,
Speaker 7: what the hell is a permanent pumpkin. I thought they
Speaker 7: sprayed it with some you know, like thing that's some
Speaker 7: preservative or something. And no, it was this decoration that
Speaker 7: I thought was really cool looking. I wanted to buy,
Speaker 7: like two of them. They took old propane tanks and
Speaker 7: cut them like cut pumpkin faces in them, like with
Speaker 7: like a like a welding torch or something. That's they
Speaker 7: were selling notes. I was like, man, that is cool.
Speaker 2: I don't know.
Speaker 1: It's like a big creative thing and people are expressing
Speaker 1: themselves and it's not like a dumb political thing, and like, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: let's salute that. Let's salute that. I think it's good.
Speaker 1: You tell us what you think, send us a dispatcher
Speaker 1: and an email. Let's get into a couple of emails
Speaker 1: real quick. Mike emails, and he says to tips at
Speaker 1: the news Junki dot Com, I drive to Palm Beach
Speaker 1: for work. Oh, that could be tough. During off season
Speaker 1: and when Trump is not at mar A Lago, the
Speaker 1: drive is about twenty to twenty five minutes to get
Speaker 1: seven point five miles. During the season, when he's here
Speaker 1: and they close Southern Boulevard, the average is an hour
Speaker 1: and fifteen minutes.
Speaker 2: Yikes, that is rough.
Speaker 1: What a pain in the ass, Mike says. Phillip emails
Speaker 1: the show and says, Sean, I'm just curious. Please do
Speaker 1: not take this wrong. But the morning show always talks
Speaker 1: about Trump and some news, but this morning they haven't
Speaker 1: said anything about the ceasefiring.
Speaker 7: Gods.
Speaker 1: Maybe they just don't handle that stuff.
Speaker 2: Dude.
Speaker 1: I like I talk about these kind of things. I
Speaker 1: try to talk about everything that's going on in the
Speaker 1: world each day. A lot of shows don't tackle things
Speaker 1: that isn't in their wheelhouse, Like for so many people,
Speaker 1: go Azza and ceasefire and Israel is like a foreign,
Speaker 1: very foreign thing.
Speaker 2: Is there a policy by your.
Speaker 1: Station not to talk about it. We should be celebrating,
Speaker 1: shouldn't we said this person, Thank you very much. Well,
Speaker 1: people in Gaza are celebrating, the people in Israel are celebrating.
Speaker 1: That's what I look to. It seems like they're excited
Speaker 1: to maybe put this in the rear view. I hope
Speaker 1: everything goes this time that Jack's door. Sorry, yeah, the
Speaker 1: red lights.
Speaker 2: The red light's going on.
Speaker 1: Tips at the News junkie dot Com and Danny Emails,
Speaker 1: Good afternoon, junkies. Going back to the open carry law,
Speaker 1: we were having dinner at Carabas a few weeks ago
Speaker 1: when a man appeared to be in his sixties walked
Speaker 1: by our table heading to the restroom. I saw a
Speaker 1: gun on his belt. I told my partner to look
Speaker 1: at it when he comes by again. When the guy
Speaker 1: came by again, I looked at his gun and looked
Speaker 1: at his face, and he was staring right at me.
Speaker 1: I could see the look on his face that he
Speaker 1: was so proud to be carrying his weapon. I just
Speaker 1: thought he looked like a douche, says Danny spoiler alert.
Speaker 2: That was Johnny Kraba.
Speaker 1: That was he just haves to be careful in public
Speaker 1: like that. Yeah, I mean, I look, the open carry
Speaker 1: stuff is there's a lot of really dumb people who
Speaker 1: seem super into flexing that in public, and it gives
Speaker 1: a bit of a bad look to the responsible, good
Speaker 1: gun owners who don't want to do crap like that.

Speaker 6: does it take forty wax to kill somebody with an axe?

Speaker 7: Huh, Yeah, you really got it for this at game guy.

Speaker 6: Smelly case, despite it being in his new memoir where
Speaker 6: he said he called Michael Jackson smelly is now pointing
Speaker 6: the finger of blame at of all people, Quincy Jones.
Speaker 2: He put it on his own book, and then it
Speaker 2: was like not It wasn't kidding.
Speaker 6: No, he said, everyone thought I was saying Michael smelt. No,
Speaker 6: that was Quincy's nickname. Here comes smelly. As a matter
Speaker 6: of fact, I didn't call him smelly. I gave him
Speaker 6: underwear weird exactly.
Speaker 2: Why don't you have your underwear Michael.
Speaker 3: Because I'm smelling so bad I had to throw him away. U.
Speaker 6: The name has to do with the soap, and more
Speaker 6: to do with the chaos of Michael Jackson. His clothes
Speaker 6: were constantly vanishing because people treated them like collectibles.
Speaker 2: Same.
Speaker 7: Oh, I didn't even think about that. People probably stole
Speaker 7: his clothes all the time.
Speaker 6: Imagine sending your clothes out and only getting half of
Speaker 6: them back. The others are souvenirs, so you'd wear a
Speaker 6: pair of jeans until they tried to.
Speaker 3: Run away from him.
Speaker 6: So at some point Lionel saved the day and said,
Speaker 6: have some of my underwear.
Speaker 3: Michael, you're not smelly. That was Quincy Jones, and I'll
Speaker 3: leave you with this.
Speaker 6: I don't know how smelly is. I'm gonna just buy

Speaker 7: I mean, if there's not any better timing for this
Speaker 7: spooky s. The Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission Friends
Speaker 7: of Sean has confirmed a second case of chronic wasting
Speaker 7: disease infection in a deer.
Speaker 2: But that's not a fun thing. To call it chronic
Speaker 2: wasting disease.
Speaker 7: Chronic wasting disease but also referred to as zombie dear disease.
Speaker 1: Now we're talking.
Speaker 7: Offici'll say a one and a half year old doe
Speaker 7: killed by a vehicle along the roadway tested positive for
Speaker 7: the disease, found less than a mile from the Florida's
Speaker 7: first ever case from a deer back in twenty twenty three.
Speaker 7: It affects the animal's brain and central nervous system. There's
Speaker 7: no cure or vaccine, and it's always fatal to deer. Jesus,
Speaker 7: they're conducting a comprehensive response plan to contain the zombie
Speaker 7: deer disease to the area it was detected. It's not
Speaker 7: transmitted to humans, however, wildlife officials strongly recommend against people
Speaker 7: eating the infected deer meat.
Speaker 2: Seems like kind of a naturally.
Speaker 3: Do you like see that the deer meat looks infected.
Speaker 2: I don't know.
Speaker 3: There's not a way to tell disease is riddled in
Speaker 3: that meat.
Speaker 7: You could see infections a lot. I don't know if
Speaker 7: I just see a dead deer. I don't know that
Speaker 7: I'm going to know the.
Speaker 1: Regular dead deer, or disease infected dead deer, zombie disease
Speaker 1: infected dead deer. No less on this next one. In Stuart, Florida,
Speaker 1: nobody could help themselves.
Speaker 7: Nobody writing for Local twenty one news could help themselves
Speaker 7: because you see, at some point at a place called
Speaker 7: Harlowe's Hideout, which is a bar, alligator made its way
Speaker 7: inside the bar. Oh an alligator walks into a bar
Speaker 7: in Florida?
Speaker 2: No, seriously wacky.
Speaker 7: It sounds like the setup to a joke, but for
Speaker 7: patrons at a local tiki bar and Stuart happy hour,
Speaker 7: came with an unexpected twist and a few extra teeth.
Speaker 7: To a police department posted on Monday that officers responded
Speaker 7: to a rather unusual call. The alligator had indeed wandered
Speaker 7: into Harlow's Hideout. Unlike the typical rowdy guest trying to
Speaker 7: dodge a tab, this one had scales, a tail, and
Speaker 7: a knack for dramatic entrances.
Speaker 2: Did it walk out? Is everybody okay?
Speaker 1: Yeah?
Speaker 2: Did anything bad happen? If not? This just this happens
Speaker 2: every day or two Yeah, this.
Speaker 3: Is very exciting for the entire town.
Speaker 7: I skipped this story where it says an alligator was
Speaker 7: spotted at a public so I was like, what, not
Speaker 7: enough in the parking lot?
Speaker 2: Yeah, no, that's not enough at all.
Speaker 7: And golf course be damned and unless it's getting a
Speaker 7: hole in one. It says the gator was taken into
Speaker 7: custy without incident and no injuries were reported. Just one
Speaker 7: wild story to tell and a few shaken up cocktails.
Speaker 7: The alligator was relocated, according to police, to a more
Speaker 7: suitable venue where the only cocktails are in the swamp
Speaker 7: and the sun never sets on happy hour.
Speaker 2: Wow, I'm glad we could be done with that.
Speaker 1: Yeah, there you go. All right.
Speaker 7: Well, if you thought that story was stupid, there's a
Speaker 7: Republican lawmaker in Florida who has filed a bill to
Speaker 7: rename a roadway for Charlie Kirk. Now this is not
Speaker 7: the previous lawmaker that filed such a bill and has
Speaker 7: already succeeded at it. There's already a piece of highway
Speaker 7: with a sign on it that says Charlie Kirk Memorial Highway,
Speaker 7: not Florida, No, not here. Yeah, I just happened to
Speaker 7: be on my way out to the farm and saw like,
Speaker 7: oh look this road. This was the thing that they
Speaker 7: were talking about, and they got it done in for
Speaker 7: government work, I would say, record timing, sealing.
Speaker 3: You just said on my way to the farm, very nonchalantly.
Speaker 1: Yeah, this kid farm with Jackson to do the pumpkin thing.
Speaker 3: Oh got it?
Speaker 7: Sorry, yeah, uh so, uh yeah, we were on our
Speaker 7: way to this thing and I noticed that. But however,
Speaker 7: this is a different bill, by the way. This is
Speaker 7: a lawmaker filed a bill to rename a roadway, uh
Speaker 7: for Charlie Kirk. And by a roadway, I mean a
Speaker 7: roadway on every public state, university and college campus in
Speaker 7: the state of Florida.
Speaker 3: All right, that's one way to do it.
Speaker 7: And it's not just like you get to pick one
Speaker 7: of your roadways. He has written, he has picked a
Speaker 7: road for every single college in Florida to be renamed.
Speaker 7: The University of Florida shall redesignate Gemini Boulevard South as
Speaker 7: Charlie James Kirk Boulevard, Florida State University Chieftain Way as
Speaker 7: Charlie James Kirk Road UF. Shall redesignate Stadium Road as
Speaker 7: Charlie James Kirk Road Valencia College. She'll rename Valencia College.
Speaker 7: Drive on and on and on it goes forever.
Speaker 1: Isn't this the story though, where it actually came with
Speaker 1: a threat about funding or something too.
Speaker 2: Yes, good thing you ask.
Speaker 7: If you don't comply with this within ninety days, the
Speaker 7: state funding's state funding for any of these schools shall
Speaker 7: be withheld.
Speaker 3: Is wild.
Speaker 2: That is, it's awful.
Speaker 6: What happened to Charlie Kirk horrendous. Definitely should never happen again.
Speaker 6: But to have every single street named after that.
Speaker 1: It's not even that it's like name streets after or
Speaker 1: to whatever. It's to force with threat of losing public funding,
Speaker 1: all of the schools to absolutely have to add one,
Speaker 1: in particular, Charlie Kirk Road on the campus. That's domb
Speaker 1: that's bad.
Speaker 7: State Representative Kevin Steele, whom Dade City filed the bill
Speaker 7: in the Florida House.
Speaker 2: There's no Senate companion.
Speaker 7: The bill of pass would make each institution's board of
Speaker 7: trustees renamed these roads as applicable or risk losing public funding.
Speaker 1: Yeah, you're not going to like this. Republican friends, you're
Speaker 1: not going to like this. When the other party gets
Speaker 1: in power at some point in time. If they ever do,
Speaker 1: and they decide to every school, you're going to be like, no, no,
Speaker 1: I don't. That's that's ridiculous. This is a forced thing.
Speaker 1: You're not gonna want it. When the other people get
Speaker 1: the range of power, something I can get behind.
Speaker 2: Though.
Speaker 7: Governor Ron DeSantis held a press conference last week and
Speaker 7: he said a portion of Clearwater Trail will be dedicated
Speaker 7: to the late Hull Cogan, who lived in the area
Speaker 7: for many years.
Speaker 1: Okay, spit everywhere. I wasn't expecting Hull that came out
Speaker 1: of your mouth. I spit water, brother, I was not
Speaker 1: expecting Hull Cogan to come out of your mouth on
Speaker 1: the internet, brother, Holy cow.
Speaker 7: Desanta's made announcement at Hogan's hangout in Clearwater, and the
Speaker 7: bar posted on Facebook about the visit, saying the governor
Speaker 7: would be sharing a special announcement.
Speaker 3: How mad is scientology right now?
Speaker 7: The governor said that considered dedicating a street to Hogan,
Speaker 7: but decided that the trail would best honor his legacy
Speaker 7: of telling people to say your prayers and eat your vitamins.
Speaker 7: I sound less like Hul Cogan and more like Alex Jones.
Speaker 7: That's not on purpose. Hogan's son, Nick, also spoke at
Speaker 7: the dedication, saying this is something my dad would be
Speaker 7: so so proud of because Clearwater was always home for him.
Speaker 2: Are you okay, buddy?
Speaker 1: I am. I just made a mess over here, I
Speaker 1: really did. I had a full mouth of water and
Speaker 1: I spit the entire Yeah. So disappointed that I didn't
Speaker 1: see that. Oh my god, look I got all over
Speaker 1: my pants.
Speaker 2: Catastrophe.
Speaker 1: There's water there too.
Speaker 2: Well.
Speaker 1: We have made a couple lists as a state.
Speaker 2: Friends.
Speaker 7: We'll see whether we did good or bad. The first one.
Speaker 7: I don't know if this is good or bad. I'm
Speaker 7: not involved in this, but Florida and Nevada have topped
Speaker 7: a list of states whose residents are most likely to
Speaker 7: marry for money. A WHO study is revealed they are
Speaker 7: the gold diggerist.
Speaker 2: Yes.
Speaker 7: The Sunshine and Silver States both earned a gold Digger
Speaker 7: score of eight point two four out of ten.
Speaker 3: How did they determine that?
Speaker 7: Texas trail close behind with eight point two three, followed
Speaker 7: by California and New York. The divorce coaching apps split
Speaker 7: Up looked at factors such as concentration of millionaire and billionaires,
Speaker 7: population average annual income, early wage, and cost of living
Speaker 7: in each state. Is compiling the data dating app behaviors,
Speaker 7: and online searches for phrases such as sugar daddy, sugar mommy,
Speaker 7: sugar baby, and the very just plain old, boring Mary Rich.
Speaker 1: We're also tallied in factor you know that owing in
Speaker 1: your life where you realize things are going very well
Speaker 1: and you google Mary Rich.
Speaker 3: Suld you tell me the numbers for Mary Poor.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's the googling that I think is rock bottom.
Speaker 7: Or asking Jeeves how to marry Rich would be like
Speaker 7: you just should put away the put away the laptop.
Speaker 3: For a while, kill yourself.
Speaker 7: No, no, no, terrible advice. Now, don't play the song.
Speaker 7: Do not do that hard children.
Speaker 10: Do not try this at your house or school, parents,
Speaker 10: or friend's house, or in and ali your strangers.
Speaker 1: The next list we made is the list of the
Speaker 1: states that are the gayest.
Speaker 3: Yeah, baby, oh, tell me to get that one right.
Speaker 2: That's right.
Speaker 7: Pride is coming up and everybody's doing their celebrating, and
Speaker 7: they have compiled a list of the states with the
Speaker 7: most same sex couples.
Speaker 2: And honestly, I.
Speaker 3: Thought, and those are out of the clouset. I thought
Speaker 3: Florida would be a little higher on this watch your
Speaker 3: damn wow.
Speaker 7: But in the in the grand scheme of things, we
Speaker 7: are number ten on the list. Do you have any
Speaker 7: guesses who is gayer than Florida?
Speaker 1: California's gaier than Florida.
Speaker 7: California is number seven on the list. Wow, I thought
Speaker 7: they were more gay than.
Speaker 1: I think.
Speaker 3: Texas.
Speaker 7: No, not, No Texas or New York or Oregon is
Speaker 7: number two on the list. Washington, New York not on
Speaker 7: the list. Washington, yes, number nine, New Mexico then Washington eight,
Speaker 7: California at seven, Massachusetts at six, number five, five, the
Speaker 7: island state of Hawaii.
Speaker 2: Then we go to Nevada, I said Nervada.
Speaker 7: I said Nevada at number four because I was confusing
Speaker 7: it with the number three, Shawn's home state of Vermont,
Speaker 7: the third gayest state in the Union, followed by Oregon
Speaker 7: at number one.
Speaker 2: Congratulations to Delaware, just.
Speaker 3: Delaware, and you bet.

Speaker 2: Well no no.
Speaker 3: Flannels and I don't know equal rights and everyone else
Speaker 3: in the country. What do you want from us?
Speaker 7: I was saying that they need a better slogan and
Speaker 7: since they're the gayest state, they should be able to
Speaker 7: uh embrace that. But who am I to say during
Speaker 7: this week in Florida? What Delaware should do? All I
Speaker 7: was saying is we ranked number ten.
Speaker 2: Thought it would have been a little bit higher.
Speaker 1: Florida's First Lady says she has no clue who bad
Speaker 1: Bunny is.
Speaker 7: She tweeted, not trying to start anything, but honestly, who
Speaker 7: exactly is bad Bunny? She wrote in a post on
Speaker 7: formerly known as Twitter, alongside a bunny emoji. She was
Speaker 7: responding to her husband, ron DeSantis, who said he was
Speaker 7: still holding out hope for Metallica to headline Last Time Show.
Speaker 3: I would love to see Ronnie at a Metallica content.
Speaker 1: He loves some Metallica.

Speaker 7: leaving their sixteen year old boy by himself on the
Speaker 7: side of I seventy five with a bag of handguns.
Speaker 1: Okay, please remember children, friends, and now when you say
Speaker 1: of handguns, how many? How many handguns make a bag
Speaker 1: of him?
Speaker 2: I don't know.
Speaker 7: I think you only need to have a bag and
Speaker 7: at least two handguns to warrant a bag of hands.
Speaker 7: I don't even know a gun, much less many guns
Speaker 7: that would necessitate an entire bag, according to a probable
Speaker 7: clause af A David. Northport police received a call about
Speaker 7: a male scene walking along I seventy five. They found
Speaker 7: the team, who told him he had been in a
Speaker 7: vehicle with his parents and an eight year old sibling.
Speaker 7: His parents, I guess, told him when they got on
Speaker 7: the interstate that they were going on a road trip
Speaker 7: to either Guam or Idaho. At a road trip to Guam, Idaho.
Speaker 7: At that point, the boy told police, for those of.
Speaker 1: You who are not initiated, you can't exactly drive to Guam.
Speaker 3: It's on the other side of the world Florida.
Speaker 7: The couple pulled over to the side of the road
Speaker 7: when he said he didn't want to go.
Speaker 2: On the trip.
Speaker 7: He gave him two bags containing a forty caliber handgun,
Speaker 7: a nine milimeter handgun, and some cash. So like I said,
Speaker 7: two handguns, here's.
Speaker 3: Some supplies to all the things leave your child with
Speaker 3: on the side of Ice twenty five.
Speaker 7: And told him to get out of the car and

Speaker 2: I didn't ask him, Dagon because I'm I'm out of time.
Speaker 7: In winter Haven, a man was caught in jail with
Speaker 7: a thermos inserted inside his body. What Sheriff Grady Judd said,
Speaker 7: they had to find a specialist. He's quite the ordeal.
Speaker 7: He put it up the exit ramp. That's it for
Speaker 7: this week in Florida.
Speaker 2: Thank you, Sea Lane.
Speaker 10: Yeah.
Speaker 1: I mean immediately when you said that, I was like,

Speaker 1: only one way that that goes in. You can't swallow
Speaker 1: a thermos.
Speaker 3: Some people are thermos. Was it still warm?
Speaker 2: You know? What they didn't say was what was inside it.
Speaker 2: Let's get whole story.

Speaker 1: pretty insane scene on the ocean, and I'll tell you
Speaker 1: what went down. We'll give you all the details here.
Speaker 1: We'll also talk about a bunch of other issues that
Speaker 1: we need to cover before today. That's something out of
Speaker 1: teas and haven't paid off just yet. We got jury
Speaker 1: duty coming up with Moses DeWitt. A new monument in Washington,
Speaker 1: d C. What's going down here? This was on Trump's
Speaker 1: desk yesterday, This big new monument that they're planning on building,
Speaker 1: I guess, and we'll see what that's all about.
Speaker 2: It's coming up next.
Speaker 1: I'd the news junkie, the Roast event and it's gonna
Speaker 1: be absolutely awesome. We hope you're going to be there.
Speaker 1: Learn more about the event over at the newsjunkie dot
Speaker 1: com slash roast. It's a live taping for a special
Speaker 1: that we're working on, and you will be there in
Speaker 1: the audience. We're dressing up, where we're doing costumes. We
Speaker 1: got a whole thing going and you are going to
Speaker 1: hear some brutal jokes of firing in all directions. Be
Speaker 1: there for an amazing event in a very very exclusive venue.
Speaker 1: Go to the news junkie dot com slash roast. I
Speaker 1: wanted to talk about this because I thought, Hey, we
Speaker 1: spent so much time bringing up that comedy festival in
Speaker 1: Saudi Arabia, is this going to be the same. And
Speaker 1: I don't know if you guys caught this or not,
Speaker 1: but there's a show come up called SoundStorm twenty five,
Speaker 1: and from what I can tell, it's in Saudi Arabia.
Speaker 1: It's in Riodd, Saudi Arabia, where that's exactly where the
Speaker 1: comedy thing.
Speaker 2: Was moving from comedians to musicians. Yeah, yeah, the first year.
Speaker 1: No, I don't think so. I think they've done it before.
Speaker 1: I believe I mean, I could be wrong about that,
Speaker 1: but I think they've done this before and it stars
Speaker 1: Post Malone. So now is Post Malone gonna get heat
Speaker 1: just like the comedians got heat for performing over there?
Speaker 1: Or maybe because this is not thrown by the Royal Family,
Speaker 1: it's not the same thing.
Speaker 2: Royal Family, you.
Speaker 1: Know what, I don't. I don't actually I'm assuming that
Speaker 1: it's not, but I'll check Calvin that I think that's
Speaker 1: Calvin Harris. I believe, but I'm not positive. Oh yeah, okay, okay,
Speaker 1: if you go, if you go to the top, Post Malone, Harris.
Speaker 3: A cowboy hat over his eyes, justin.
Speaker 1: K Benson Boone. Those three those are big names. Post Malone,
Speaker 1: Calvin Harris, and Benson Bone all performing in Saudi Arabia.
Speaker 1: And then there's a huge list of people I'm not
Speaker 1: familiar with a lot of these. DJ Snake I've heard of, Halsey.
Speaker 2: I've heard of.
Speaker 3: Isn't Idris Elba, but.
Speaker 1: Oh it could be. That'd be kind of cool. I
Speaker 1: know he does DJ Majors. Laser sound System is going
Speaker 1: to be there Post Malona. I mentioned he's from Australia,
Speaker 1: the pop singer and they'll be performing over in Saudi
Speaker 1: Arabia in the same city, so it'll be interesting to
Speaker 1: see if these folks get a bunch of heat as well.
Speaker 6: So when it came to the comedy festival, though, was
Speaker 6: that just the royal family's special guests like whoever got
Speaker 6: invited or the civilians of Saudi Arabia bought tickets.
Speaker 1: For They claim that just regular people in Saudi Arabia
Speaker 1: were the folks in attendance. How true that is, I
Speaker 1: don't know, but that is what the claim was from
Speaker 1: a couple of the comedians that were performing there. I
Speaker 1: do know that Bill Burr, who is getting a bunch
Speaker 1: of heat for this. He canceled a live podcast event
Speaker 1: that he was going to be doing. Could be unrelated,
Speaker 1: but I mean it seems a little suspicious.
Speaker 7: His statement about the whole thing was pretty much f
Speaker 7: off to the people that were mad at him for it.
Speaker 7: He said, you know, we went over there, they're funny
Speaker 7: people that made him laugh.
Speaker 3: He also can afford to cancel so events now considering the.
Speaker 1: Paychecks, got a couple of bucks to do that show.
Speaker 1: So we'll see what you think about that. Sent us
Speaker 1: your dispatches at thenewsjunkie dot com. A monuments, a monument
Speaker 1: potentially added in Washington, DC. And I saw this, hang on,
Speaker 1: let me see, I'm gonna bring this up. There were
Speaker 1: there were plans for this monument on you mens, on
Speaker 1: Trump's desk yesterday. I don't know if they're going to
Speaker 1: go through with this and make this an official thing.
Speaker 7: I'm guessing if they were on Trump's desk, it wasn't
Speaker 7: like that other statue of him that appeared in DC recently,
Speaker 7: which one which is more offensive, the one where he
Speaker 7: was holding hands with Jeffrey Epstein.
Speaker 2: No, No, not that one.
Speaker 1: No, this is what was on his desk at the
Speaker 1: White House and you could see the Lincoln Memorial there,
Speaker 1: and then across from the Lincoln Memorial it would be
Speaker 1: something similar to the Arc to Triumph in Paris. At
Speaker 1: least that's what it looks like here. If I zoom
Speaker 1: way in, it's like a huge, you know, monument that
Speaker 1: they would be putting up at this place. If this
Speaker 1: is real. Uh, And I like, I don't know if
Speaker 1: it's gonna be called some kind of Trump related thing
Speaker 1: or what. But they said Arctor Trump Trump. This story
Speaker 1: says arc Trump. I don't know if that's what they'll
Speaker 1: call it, but it was on Trump's resolute desk in
Speaker 1: the Oval Office. The plans were The plan, featuring small
Speaker 1: models on a map, shows the arch sitting on a
Speaker 1: traffic circle near Arlington Cemetery on the other side of
Speaker 1: the Potoma from the white marble Lincoln Memorial. A second
Speaker 1: larger model arc are sat on the desk, on which
Speaker 1: details could be seen more clearly, including a winged golden
Speaker 1: angel holding a torch flanked by two white eagles on
Speaker 1: either side. And they say it looks like the Arcto
Speaker 1: Triumph in Paris, which is a huge, very famous place.
Speaker 1: When you think about Paris, you probably think about the
Speaker 1: Eiffel Tower and the Arctetriumph. Those are the two main
Speaker 1: visuals that show people, Hey, this is Paris and this
Speaker 1: is people hanging out around Paris, and it's kind of
Speaker 1: similar to that. Will they build this, I don't know.
Speaker 1: I can only tell you going to d C a
Speaker 1: couple of times. D C has so much room for
Speaker 1: so much stuff like that, it really does. Everything in
Speaker 1: DC is such a hike. It's like you're in one
Speaker 1: place and you go, I want to go there. And
Speaker 1: to their credit, they built these big, beautiful sidewalks in Washington, DC,
Speaker 1: and mostly the area is kept really nice and clean,
Speaker 1: honest to God, through all of the presidents where I've
Speaker 1: been to Washington, d C. Did it matter who was
Speaker 1: in charge, it was mostly just like really decent, full
Speaker 1: of these great museums and stuff. But it's so much
Speaker 1: open space and walking out there. Will there be a
Speaker 1: Trump monument? Will we name it after himself? I don't know.
Speaker 1: They only saw the models on the desks before we
Speaker 1: get geared up for jury duty. I talked about this,
Speaker 1: so let me tease. Let me pay off this tease.
Speaker 1: In North Carolina, a boater is in big trouble, and
Speaker 1: so could the people who are with this boater. Here's
Speaker 1: the story on this from MSN, and it says, toss
Speaker 1: everything overboard. A voter told his pals to throw nearly
Speaker 1: one hundred cans of white claw into the water.
Speaker 3: Okay, that's super messed up after he killed.
Speaker 1: Some girl a woman's legs. I think they might have
Speaker 1: been this dude like was hammered on this boat. I
Speaker 1: guess it says, rather than come to the aid of
Speaker 1: a young girl and woman in North Carolina on a
Speaker 1: lake after striking them with his boat so hard it's
Speaker 1: propeller broke off. The driver tried to get rid of
Speaker 1: the evidence of the party happening on his boat at
Speaker 1: the time of the fatal collision, toss everything overboard.
Speaker 6: He said, I'm sorry for reacting more to the white
Speaker 6: claw than the egregious chopping off some girl's leg.
Speaker 1: He was getting that white claw and the cans out
Speaker 1: of there because he was I guess hammered and crashed
Speaker 1: this boat into these people. And I don't know a
Speaker 1: lot about boats, but I'll tell you this. If you
Speaker 1: crash a boat into somebody so hard the propeller falls off,
Speaker 1: non boat me says that sounds bad. Yeah, it sounds
Speaker 1: like you were really moving when you crashed into this person.
Speaker 1: So there's some negligence lawsuits against this particular individual who
Speaker 1: is responsible for this.
Speaker 7: I know that a terrible thing happened, but the tossing
Speaker 7: of the white clause has me so distracted because if
Speaker 7: they are empty cans, which I'm assuming they would be,
Speaker 7: because he's trying to get rid of evident into how
Speaker 7: drunk they were. Port turtles, you can't just toss empty
Speaker 7: together float on the top of the way, unless you're like,
Speaker 7: unless you're trying to fill them, at which point now
Speaker 7: you're having to two at a time dunk cans of
Speaker 7: white claw under the water so.
Speaker 2: That they fill and make sure they sink.
Speaker 1: Mm hmm. Yeah, you know you're screwed, buddy. This dude
Speaker 1: he bought one hundred white claws. And then it says
Speaker 1: around four thirty pm he was pulling two wakeboarders when
Speaker 1: one of them fell off. Kite, I think that's what
Speaker 1: you say. I say this guy's name. Kite allegedly kept
Speaker 1: driving at a high rate of speed as he looked
Speaker 1: back at the wakeboarders, not realizing he was heading straight
Speaker 1: for these two people. He drove the boat directly over
Speaker 1: the two swimmers. One of the people on the boat said,
Speaker 1: you heard a weird noise and looked in the water
Speaker 1: and saw the two swimmers floating. The boat hit them
Speaker 1: so hard the propeller broke when this happened, and then
Speaker 1: he kept driving for another one hundred and fifty yards
Speaker 1: before even stopping. His blood alcohol level point one seven.
Speaker 1: He's in a load of trouble for this whole thing,
Speaker 1: or we're gonna hear from our friend mode Wit of
Speaker 1: the Duit Law firm, he will be joining us. We
Speaker 1: got some questions for him, right. We got to do
Speaker 1: a decent amount of good questions for mo and we
Speaker 1: have a lot more to get in before we wrap
Speaker 1: everything up for not only today but for the week.
Speaker 1: So let's do that. It's coming up next. I'm the
Speaker 1: news chunkie. Has it really gotten this bad? One of
Speaker 1: the more viral posts of the week was this woman
Speaker 1: sitting in her car bitching about new cars and all
Speaker 1: of like the add ons and the expensive stuff that
Speaker 1: you have to pay for. Now, I'm hoping Sabrina stay
Speaker 1: by the dump button because I'm hoping she doesn't curt Sadly,
Speaker 1: I heard a little bit of this, but this woman
Speaker 1: was just kind of going over the new world of
Speaker 1: owning stuff where you buy a car, but then they'll
Speaker 1: put features behind a paywall and then you can't have GPS,
Speaker 1: or you can't have this, or you can't have that,
Speaker 1: and they'll nickel and dime you for all of this
Speaker 1: crab And she made this video. It's really resonated with
Speaker 1: a lot of people who do not like this. Let's
Speaker 1: see what she said.
Speaker 16: You know, we're in a Toyota twenty twenty five and
Speaker 16: we noticed that on the screen, you can't use navigation
Speaker 16: unless you pay a subscription.
Speaker 1: Insane, Like you can't just my car has this, by
Speaker 1: the way, where like there's a internal service that has
Speaker 1: navigation and a couple other things and they want you
Speaker 1: to pay for a plan.
Speaker 6: I was thirteen years old and I knew that as
Speaker 6: soon as I bought it. Also, I have Pandora on there,
Speaker 6: and I don't pay for Pandora, so I don't.
Speaker 3: Click that button. Yeah, I was just news to people.
Speaker 1: Well, hold on, she's just started.
Speaker 3: Give her a second here, get her us here, she's
Speaker 3: I think.
Speaker 1: This is a fair gripe. I think when you buy
Speaker 1: stuff and then they like hide features away from you
Speaker 1: that are built into the car, that's that isn't an
Speaker 1: annoying thing personally. But she's got more.
Speaker 16: Phone up and use navigation on your phone.
Speaker 3: That's free.
Speaker 16: So we looked at the subscription fees and it's fifteen
Speaker 16: dollars a month. It's also fifteen dollars a month to
Speaker 16: stream music to the actual screen in your car. Okay, together,
Speaker 16: it's twenty five dollars a month, and it's I also
Speaker 16: saw somebody on a forum say it's eight dollars a
Speaker 16: month to be able to see your oil level.
Speaker 1: No, no, not a chance to see your oil level.
Speaker 1: That can't be true.
Speaker 3: Hurry, there is ready to pop off to wait twenty five.
Speaker 2: Bucks a month to see your speed while you're driving?
Speaker 15: Give me.
Speaker 2: If I can hide it from the cops. No, No,
Speaker 2: you can't do that, can you? Now that's a safety issue.
Speaker 3: Yeah, the Bluetooth can be monetized.
Speaker 1: At this point, I think what she's talking about is
Speaker 1: inherent features built in which most of this and correct
Speaker 1: me if I'm wrong, sea led. Most of this can
Speaker 1: be circum by using car play.
Speaker 2: But here's the.
Speaker 7: Thing and and H Moses could probably chime on, chime
Speaker 7: in on this too, because you drive a Rivian if
Speaker 7: if I'm not mistaken.
Speaker 2: Oh, way to blow up my spot? Yes, one that
Speaker 2: I've ridden in the very very very back up. Yeah,
Speaker 2: Serena drove it last week. I did, had the U
Speaker 2: had the crash into ruin sure to prove it. But
Speaker 2: does your Rivian have car play?
Speaker 15: No?
Speaker 2: That's the one thing that actually freaked me out when
Speaker 2: I went to pick it up. I didn't realize it
Speaker 2: didn't have car play.
Speaker 7: I think so maybe uh, maybe they had already, like
Speaker 7: made this decision. But I saw a statement from one
Speaker 7: of the owners at Rivian recently that was like, oh,
Speaker 7: you'll get over it not having car play, And all
Speaker 7: the comments were like, I'm not buying a car. This
Speaker 7: is a car play forum, so obviously it's gonna be
Speaker 7: a little bit biased. But these people are like, I'm
Speaker 7: not buying a car that doesn't have car play because
Speaker 7: I'm not going to get sucked in to this system
Speaker 7: where everything is nickel and diming me.
Speaker 1: It's annoying. Do they make you pay for some sort
Speaker 1: of car play like thing Moses or does it come
Speaker 1: with it?
Speaker 2: No, everything's included. I mean when I picked up the
Speaker 2: car because I didn't test drive it before I bought it,
Speaker 2: and they told me I didn't have car play, I
Speaker 2: almost told him I didn't want the car at that point,
Speaker 2: but really, I'll give it a try. I mean it's
Speaker 2: you know, you get pretty used to car play, but
Speaker 2: their interface is as good as good to wear. Yeah,
Speaker 2: it doesn't really cause any issues.
Speaker 1: Are but she's saying the oil level that seems like nonsense.
Speaker 4: Well let me see what else she mentions. Yeah, definitely, amen,
Speaker 4: What what the hell to use the car? They basically
Speaker 4: used the car and the key fob.
Speaker 1: The car is like forty the key fob. There's again,
Speaker 1: there is no way, there's no way that they're not
Speaker 1: letting use the key fob unless you have to have
Speaker 1: some sort of subscription plan.
Speaker 2: Is this trying?
Speaker 6: I mean they already have the car, So wouldn't this
Speaker 6: mean that they knew this stuff before they signed off?
Speaker 1: Well, maybe they weren't paying enough attention, they said. There's
Speaker 1: also a monthly subscription for to use your keyfup to
Speaker 1: remote start your car. This can be bundled in with
Speaker 1: your music and navigation plan and eight dollars a month
Speaker 1: to be able to see your oil level, entire pressure remotely,
Speaker 1: and service can vehicle health reports for eight dollars a month.
Speaker 1: And so it adds up eight dollars eight dollars and
Speaker 1: twenty five dollars and fifteen dollars and fifteen dollars in
Speaker 1: a brand new Toyota twenty twenty five Toyota. Toyota owners
Speaker 1: jump in on this, let us know if that's your experience,
Speaker 1: if they told you ahead of time, et cetera, et cetera.
Speaker 1: I'd love to hear more from you. Right now here,
Speaker 1: We go let's do jury duty.
Speaker 12: Court is now in session, so put your phone down
Speaker 12: and pay attention before we call the bailiff over to
Speaker 12: whip your ass your knowing jury duty with the news
Speaker 12: Junkie's welcome our friend, modiy look.
Speaker 1: Great today, Mode thank you look great. If you get
Speaker 1: into an accident, there's a lot of attorneys out there,
Speaker 1: many of them are slimeballs. This guy, this guy is
Speaker 1: going to put you in the right spot and he's
Speaker 1: gonna take care of you. And he fights the insurance
Speaker 1: companies all the time. He's not scared of the insurance companies.
Speaker 1: All right. This isn't just a front he's putting on.
Speaker 1: He's fought the insurance companies for long enough. He ain't
Speaker 1: scared of him anymore.
Speaker 2: Spiders not insurance, yes.
Speaker 1: Yes, but and then to be fair, coming on, spiders
Speaker 1: are quite scary. So call the office if you have
Speaker 1: an accident, or if there's any reason you need a
Speaker 1: lawyer up. You need an attorney to go after the
Speaker 1: insurance company after an accident, you call eight hundred de
Speaker 1: Wit Law one, eight hundred de Witt Law one, eight
Speaker 1: hundred to Wit Law, or don't forget the website, just
Speaker 1: callmo dot com. I should have said eight hundred callmo I.
Speaker 2: That would be the correct number.
Speaker 1: Yes, I'm sorry, eight hundred Calmo one, eight hundred Calmo one,
Speaker 1: eight hundred como or just callmo dot com.
Speaker 3: Mo.
Speaker 1: I want to talk about these magnets that you're floating
Speaker 1: around here in a moment. But first things first, Sea Len,
Speaker 1: let's go to the list. We've got some things, so.
Speaker 7: We'll work from the most recent backwards, just because that's
Speaker 7: what's on the top of our minds. And we talked
Speaker 7: about earlier in the day. This teacher that's been all
Speaker 7: over the news in Central Florida this week. It's not
Speaker 7: actually a teacher. It's a para professional, is what they called. Yeah,
Speaker 7: what does that mean. It's a teacher's aide. Okay, sounds
Speaker 7: like a teacher who can't walk, but it's a teacher's aid.
Speaker 2: And so they this.
Speaker 7: Person has been harassed by this six year old girl,
Speaker 7: this little, tiny, little cute little satan, who has been throwing.
Speaker 2: Balled up paper at this day after day after day.
Speaker 7: And he came to a point where he walked over
Speaker 7: to the school resource officer and self reported that he
Speaker 7: has fantasies of slitting this girl's throat of carrying out
Speaker 7: some sort of school shooting in the cafeteria. He's been
Speaker 7: thinking about this, and reports are I'm still looking up
Speaker 7: to confirm that this person was indeed bay corrected, but
Speaker 7: needless to say, parents are super pissed that the school
Speaker 7: wasn't more forthcoming about the things that happen here, and
Speaker 7: Sean wanted to ask if well, a lot.
Speaker 1: Of the parents were like, well, we got to do more.
Speaker 1: This person needs to be arrested, And I said, that
Speaker 1: seems like the world of thought crimes, Like the guy
Speaker 1: had a terrible thought in his head and he went
Speaker 1: to the school resource officer, which, if you have that
Speaker 1: terrible thought, seems like probably the thing you're supposed to do.
Speaker 1: And I'm not sure, correct me if I'm wrong. Though,
Speaker 1: I'm not sure there was any crime actually committed other
Speaker 1: than just horrific thoughts.
Speaker 2: Ultiply thoughts are not a crime. But if you have
Speaker 2: a desire to harm yourself or others, there are certain
Speaker 2: things like a Baker Act that can be put into place,
Speaker 2: So I would assume something along those lines may have
Speaker 2: been done here.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that appears to be the case. He only didn't
Speaker 1: confirm that, but I think that's the direction they went.
Speaker 1: But you can't just say, like somebody said, they had
Speaker 1: thoughts of shooting up the school, so therefore we want
Speaker 1: them thrown into jail for a crime. There's nothing they
Speaker 1: didn't actually do anything.
Speaker 2: Right, as long as they're not making any threats or
Speaker 2: you know, publishing that in an appropriate manner. If it's
Speaker 2: just purely thought, they can do that. And there are
Speaker 2: there are some cases that have you know, gone all
Speaker 2: the way up to the US Supreme Court regarding those
Speaker 2: types of issues. Specifically, what we've talked about before was
Speaker 2: there was an individual who would sit in a playground
Speaker 2: in a vehicle and watch children play, and the somebody
Speaker 2: reported and the cops asked what he was doing there,
Speaker 2: and he basically said, I like to watch and have
Speaker 2: inappropriate fantasies. And you know, ultimately it was determined that
Speaker 2: was not a crime because he never acted on it.
Speaker 2: As disturbing as it is, he never actually acted on it.
Speaker 2: So here same type of thing. The person had these
Speaker 2: ideas or fantasies in their head. They didn't make any threats,
Speaker 2: they didn't take any action to fulfill that, but they
Speaker 2: did self report, which would you know, possibly tread Baker
Speaker 2: act or something like that, it says.
Speaker 7: According to the district, a staff member reportedly Baker acted
Speaker 7: himself after admitting to the research deputy on the twenty
Speaker 7: fourth of September that he had thoughts about harming a student.
Speaker 7: Did freaky but not only self report, but self Baker acted.
Speaker 1: I'm glad that nothing happened to this this little girl
Speaker 1: who was bothering him that bad.
Speaker 7: But I think her parents they must know. Sure, her
Speaker 7: parents know by now. I wonder if her parents know
Speaker 7: that it's her.
Speaker 1: Well, it's a big deal at the school for sure,
Speaker 1: because other people have reached out from the school. Do
Speaker 1: we have this motorcycle crash on the list, Selander, No.
Speaker 2: You did mention it that Moses was coming in and
Speaker 2: we could ask him about it.
Speaker 1: More, the real Moses. There's this guy in Georgia. He
Speaker 1: was in the Atlanta area in Georgia. We started the
Speaker 1: show with this. Today. He's riding on his motorcycle running
Speaker 1: from the cops and this police chase going on at
Speaker 1: a very high rate of speed in the rain. He's
Speaker 1: cruising along. The cops go to cut him off. They
Speaker 1: put one vehicle in front of him.
Speaker 2: He's not stopping.
Speaker 1: Another vehicle pulls up next, they're going to pin him over,
Speaker 1: get crash into him, and then the police vehicle, the
Speaker 1: police vehicle hits him when he's on the ground. And
Speaker 1: we were talking about, you know what happens next in
Speaker 1: this situation. Does that guy you think have a case
Speaker 1: against the law enforcement that ended up running into him
Speaker 1: after this high speed chase.
Speaker 2: I mean, certainly, when you're breaking the law like that,
Speaker 2: you're not going to have a cause of action back
Speaker 2: against the police officer. Now, yeah, there could be a
Speaker 2: possible excessive force argument made there, but given the possible
Speaker 2: danger that he poses to others when he's running on
Speaker 2: the motorcycle like that, I think it's unlikely that that
Speaker 2: claim would.
Speaker 6: Prevail if they've already disabled the situation. And then you
Speaker 6: see in his helmet footage that the other cop ran
Speaker 6: him over at what point?
Speaker 2: So I haven't seen the footage, So does somebody run
Speaker 2: over after he was Now.
Speaker 1: It's all in a matter of seconds. It's like they
Speaker 1: push him off, they give him nowhere to go, and
Speaker 1: so he crashes into one of the police cars and
Speaker 1: then he skids across the asphalt and comes to a stop,
Speaker 1: and when the police car comes to a stop from
Speaker 1: a high rate, they crash into him. But to me,
Speaker 1: it seems like it would have to be really obvious
Speaker 1: that this person could one stop their police car and
Speaker 1: it wasn't inevitable that they were going to hit this
Speaker 1: guy after the crash.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, as long as they're not doing something
Speaker 2: reckless or negligent. You know, given that he was running
Speaker 2: from the police on this motorcycle at a high high
Speaker 2: rate of speed pose a significant danger to others, and
Speaker 2: the police hitting them was accidental. In this situation, they're
Speaker 2: probably not going to face much liability, gotcha?
Speaker 1: All right, we're too quick break. When we come back,
Speaker 1: we'll hear from you. Send us a dispatch, give us
Speaker 1: your thoughts at thenewsjunkie dot com. We'll get to those.
Speaker 1: We'll get to more questions with MO, so you keep
Speaker 1: that list fired up because we've got some good ones
Speaker 1: on there. And then we discussed this week and that
Speaker 1: is coming up next in the News Junkie. We got
Speaker 1: our friend Mode to Wit of the de Witlaw Firm
Speaker 1: joining us here today. You have any legal issues, it's
Speaker 1: eight hundred call MO and we also usually run questions
Speaker 1: by him that we've built up throughout the week. We're like,
Speaker 1: oh my god, all these weird stories end up with
Speaker 1: us having questions about stuff we said, let's save it
Speaker 1: for him. He's going to be the guy who can
Speaker 1: answer them with a weekend arrives and usually he gets
Speaker 1: a little frustrated with us, and you know it puts
Speaker 1: up with us and answers the question a little bit.
Speaker 1: Thank God, he's willing to keep putting up with this
Speaker 1: nonsense each week. So see, Lane, what do we have
Speaker 1: nonsense wise? For Moses?
Speaker 7: We have the guy that was arrested for the Halloween decorations.
Speaker 7: Oh true with the community thought that his is set
Speaker 7: up there which pluted you called him, I believe figs
Speaker 7: earlier shown.
Speaker 1: Yeah, they are fake bodies. If you look here, it's
Speaker 1: a garbage bag in what appears to be a body shape, right,
Speaker 1: and it says District Judge on one as the one
Speaker 1: that's currently hanging from the gallows, and the rest of
Speaker 1: them are I guess in line, it says mayor on
Speaker 1: one of the fake bodies that's supposed to be a
Speaker 1: dead body, and it says c A and then it
Speaker 1: says zoning mgr as and zoning manager and the district
Speaker 1: judges hanging and the rest of them are like waiting
Speaker 1: to be hangd And that guy was arrested and actually
Speaker 1: arrested I think for like terroristic threats or something. But
Speaker 1: to me, well, I think to Seiland and I at
Speaker 1: least it seemed like that was going to be a
Speaker 1: case that he'd be able to win. Do you think
Speaker 1: that they have a solid case against this guy?
Speaker 2: Well, I think the issue is, you know, basically, he's
Speaker 2: using Halloween decorations to make a threat against a public official.
Speaker 2: It sounds like names, well maybe no names. Okay, there's
Speaker 2: no names at all, and so it just says district
Speaker 2: judge on it.
Speaker 1: Yeah, hang on. Let me give you a couple of
Speaker 1: details from wk YT here about this guy's display for
Speaker 1: Halloween that has led to the trouble for him.
Speaker 17: Nowell County man was arrested over the weekend after placing
Speaker 17: decorations in his front yard that showed fake bodies labeled
Speaker 17: with city officials. Fifty eight year olds Stephen Markham is
Speaker 17: facing two charges, including terroristic threatening. While America are protected
Speaker 17: by the First Amendment for free.
Speaker 14: Speech, experts say threatening speech is not protected Wukyt's Maggie
Speaker 14: Rickerby explains.
Speaker 2: This is something you just don't see every day.
Speaker 3: This is what folks passing by Court Street saw.
Speaker 1: So in his yard, you see like all these things,
Speaker 1: but nobody's name is out there. It's simply just in
Speaker 1: the display of like a really edgy Halloween setup, and
Speaker 1: it says, district judge, mayor whatever.
Speaker 2: I are really identifiable as one person.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, I mean I guess you could say, like
Speaker 1: that doesn't mean it's the mayor of our city or something.
Speaker 1: I don't know.
Speaker 2: Probably there may only be one district judge in the
Speaker 2: city too.
Speaker 1: You think it just putting the job title on there
Speaker 1: alone makes him vulnerable to these terroristic charges potentially.
Speaker 2: I mean, you know, typically if it's a true threat,
Speaker 2: it's prohibited. And so if you're communicating, you know, the
Speaker 2: intent to commit an act of violence. It can be symbolic,
Speaker 2: it can be a rhetoric rhetoric, but if it's a
Speaker 2: real threat of some kind, and here I would argue
Speaker 2: the mayor is clearly identifiable. Now these charges may be
Speaker 2: drop down to it may not be a terroristic threat,
Speaker 2: but there still may be uh you know, lesser included
Speaker 2: charges a yeah, harassment or something like that, maybe more
Speaker 2: as a Halloween decoration.
Speaker 1: Though, how where does it become a threat? Yeah, this
Speaker 1: is That's why I have a problem with this, because
Speaker 1: if somebody had the same exact display and they had
Speaker 1: Trump out there, they were hanging an effigy of Trump,
Speaker 1: I don't think they would get arrested. And also I
Speaker 1: don't think they should get arrested, even though that would
Speaker 1: be very clear who they were talking about.
Speaker 7: Take it even further, take the halloween out of it.
Speaker 7: Kathy Griffin had that picture where she was holding a
Speaker 7: fake Trump head that was alleged, you know, like the
Speaker 7: picture was made to look like it was ripped off
Speaker 7: or some something like that. That wasn't deemed to be
Speaker 7: a threat on his life. How come this is small town?
Speaker 2: Oh that doesn't help. I mean, you know, it's all
Speaker 2: going to be up to a court's interpretation as to
Speaker 2: whether this is protected by free speech.
Speaker 7: Or hopefully not the court that's help held by that
Speaker 7: distro judge. I want to get the venue moved here.
Speaker 1: Yeah, therein lies the problem, you know, like the mayor
Speaker 1: and the judge and everybody else. So obviously throwing around
Speaker 1: some power in this situation. The Powell County Judge Executive
Speaker 1: Eddie Barnes, wasn't named in the display. He said, at first,
Speaker 1: I didn't know what to think about it because I
Speaker 1: drove by and saw it in his yard and I
Speaker 1: was like, wow, that's kind of harsh. He said, He's
Speaker 1: known this person for decades. He could be a good person,
Speaker 1: but he degree disagrees with how he was expressing himself.
Speaker 1: If you're actively threatening somebody in a terrorizing way, that
Speaker 1: might not be covered by the general right to free expression.
Speaker 1: So I mean, I think it would at least be
Speaker 1: an interesting case. Man.
Speaker 7: I didn't know how small this town was, but hearing
Speaker 7: that the guy who got arrested in the district judge
Speaker 7: who drove by know each other and have known each
Speaker 7: other for years and he just happened to put this
Speaker 7: out there, seems kind of small townish to me.
Speaker 1: It does.
Speaker 2: Indeed, we went by what else do we have on
Speaker 2: the list for mo all?
Speaker 7: Right, Last, but not least, this was one from a
Speaker 7: story that I did not get to last week and
Speaker 7: this week in Florida. But a man was arrested for
Speaker 7: stealing an ambulance outside of Homestead Hospital and so he
Speaker 7: was in the hospital something went wrong. I think he
Speaker 7: had some mental things going on, But let's just say
Speaker 7: take those out of the equation. This guy steals an ambulance,
Speaker 7: could any could this person face charges for any injuries
Speaker 7: or loss of life stemming from the lack of available ambulance.
Speaker 7: When I think about this, I think of the three
Speaker 7: people convicted of manslaughter for stealing a stop sign in
Speaker 7: an intersection where three teenagers later collided with a tractor
Speaker 7: trailer and died. So they got the people that stole
Speaker 7: the stop sign with a manslaughter charge because the lack
Speaker 7: of stop sign contributed to the teenagers plowing into the
Speaker 7: tractor trailer. So, like you steal an ambulance, could you
Speaker 7: be held on charges because somebody somewhere in town didn't
Speaker 7: have access to that ambulance.
Speaker 2: Well, I'm not aware of any president that would support
Speaker 2: that off the top of my head. There may be some,
Speaker 2: but typically you're going to be looking at the foreseeability
Speaker 2: of that happening. So would someone removing a stop sign?
Speaker 2: Would be foreseeable that a car would blow through that
Speaker 2: stop sign, you know, roll through and get hit by
Speaker 2: another vehicle That could result in death. You know, typically
Speaker 2: that's gonna be fairly foreseeable with an ambulance. There's maybe
Speaker 2: a couple other steps there are there other ambulances in
Speaker 2: this area? Do they know it's the only ambulance. Do
Speaker 2: they know that stealing this ambulance is going to, you know,
Speaker 2: lead to the injury or death of other individuals that
Speaker 2: may not be quite as foreseeable. Is it possible, Yes,
Speaker 2: it would be possible, But I don't know of any
Speaker 2: case law that exists right now that would support those
Speaker 2: kinds of charges.
Speaker 1: A thing I wonder if there's anything like that mo
Speaker 1: for like a like a protest or something that's shut
Speaker 1: down traffic and then you know, somebody's in an emergency
Speaker 1: vehicle and they can't get to a person to give
Speaker 1: them life saving help or something.
Speaker 7: I think if we're arguing on what's foreseeable or not,
Speaker 7: I think maybe if your situation, Sean is happening in
Speaker 7: front of like a fire station and blocking the traffic,
Speaker 7: they're very close to a fire station, you might have
Speaker 7: something there interesting.
Speaker 1: All right, Well, thank you, Moses. We've got more for
Speaker 1: you in a bit here. But right now, there are
Speaker 1: some people clamoring. They are interested, they want to know
Speaker 1: about these Halloween related magnets. I believe that you've been teasing.
Speaker 1: What's the situation?
Speaker 7: What?

Speaker 1: hundred of them? Please? Or may not?

Speaker 6: store though it's really cheap. Or go to an ICP
Speaker 6: concert because they will five hundred bottles of it.
Speaker 2: I think Busdeker went to like four or five stores

Speaker 1: dot com a free four pack of Mo Halloween magnets
Speaker 1: had some great designs over there. Go grab moll you
Speaker 1: cam and real quick. I saw this story and I
Speaker 1: thought this was kind of dumb. But there was a
Speaker 1: huge fight like a football game of football game, yes,
Speaker 1: I guess it turned. It turned into a fight after
Speaker 1: the game. The teams were on the field and they
Speaker 1: just started to fight each other, and then the cops
Speaker 1: broke it up by pepper sprang. Everybody and the parents
Speaker 1: were really really pissed off about it. The cops. Are
Speaker 1: they going to be within their right to stop a
Speaker 1: fight between other people by by pepper sprang a crowd
Speaker 1: of people or were the parents right here?
Speaker 5: No?
Speaker 2: I mean, simply they can use pepper spray to stop
Speaker 2: a fight, because obviously the fight postes a greater risk
Speaker 2: to those individuals than the pepper spray does. While the
Speaker 2: pepper spray is and the irritant, you know, it's not
Speaker 2: deadly force, obviously, you know, if you're kind of standing
Speaker 2: in the crowd you're in, you're further away, maybe have
Speaker 2: more of an argument there. But you know, usually when
Speaker 2: you're using non deadly force like that and there's a
Speaker 2: potential threat of you know, physical or bodily harm, physical
Speaker 2: injury or bodily harm, they can use pepper spray in
Speaker 2: those situations.
Speaker 1: All right, quick break, then we're back with you. Record
Speaker 1: your message right now, send a dispatch at thenewsjunkie dot
Speaker 1: com mo when we come back. One last question for
Speaker 1: you before we have some fun on a Friday. I'm
Speaker 1: going to run the case of Mark Sanchez, which has
Speaker 1: been pretty big in the headlines this week, by you
Speaker 1: and see what you think, because so many people that
Speaker 1: I've seen watch this story or see the reports on
Speaker 1: it from this NFL former NFL star Mark Sanchez, are like,
Speaker 1: how could a guy get.
Speaker 2: Stabbed and also go to jail?
Speaker 1: How is the guy who got stabbed by somebody else
Speaker 1: also you know, not the victim, but indeed the criminal
Speaker 1: in that case. So I want to talk about the
Speaker 1: ins and outs of that. We'll do it when we
Speaker 1: come back. That is coming up next in the News Junkie.
Speaker 1: We saw a lot this week. We saw an insane
Speaker 1: avalanche of videos against that woman running for governor in California,
Speaker 1: Katie Porter. I don't know how things are, like Katie Porter.
Speaker 1: HQ is probably not a very positive place after this week.
Speaker 2: It doesn't sound like it was a very positive place
Speaker 2: before this week.
Speaker 1: No, it sounds like there was a lot of yelling
Speaker 1: going on there. One of the things I saw where
Speaker 1: I was like, Okay, I think maybe now we've reached
Speaker 1: the end of the rainbow. On the videos that make
Speaker 1: her look terrible and like a bitch, there's one that
Speaker 1: they released. They were like, can you believe this? It's
Speaker 1: Katie Porter and she's in a costume and she's at
Speaker 1: the Capitol and this is her here. If you're watching,
Speaker 1: you watch the show on YouTube.
Speaker 2: Does Alfred get minimum wage?
Speaker 1: If you if you return the bat that can't be
Speaker 1: it says. Video surfaces of Katie Porter showing up to Washington,
Speaker 1: d C. And a batgirl costume. She wore the outfit
Speaker 1: on the same day Democrats voted for a resolution to
Speaker 1: impeach Trump. Uh and then you see somebody saying does
Speaker 1: Alfred get minimum wage? Which is the batman's butler? I
Speaker 1: guess I think, right?
Speaker 3: Yeah, is how forget minimum wage.
Speaker 9: If you if you return to Batmobile, could you could
Speaker 9: you pay for the green new deal?
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's I think it might be real.
Speaker 3: I don't know the whole dropping. I don't know either,
Speaker 3: but I did go to town on Sona.
Speaker 1: It's fun right SOA, Yeah, Sora, this this apple. You
Speaker 1: can make all these videos I've saw and I know,
Speaker 1: Mo you You've got your team probably screwing around with
Speaker 1: this to see how many comercials they can make.
Speaker 2: But Foul has already been on it. He's been with
Speaker 2: Mo puppet on there.
Speaker 1: I saw that he took the Mo puppet and then
Speaker 1: you you show it this, You're like, here's a Mo
Speaker 1: puppet on stage at the Funny Bone, and then it
Speaker 1: animates it, it makes it move around, it's talking, it's incredible.
Speaker 2: Then the puppet says, I'm like, what's up with this
Speaker 2: festival in.
Speaker 1: Maybe that's one of the focus.
Speaker 6: Then if you don't get like your initial video where
Speaker 6: you show like your face, it.
Speaker 3: Makes you look crazy.
Speaker 6: Yeah, like it gave me a British accent for some reason,
Speaker 6: and then it as soon as I said anything, it
Speaker 6: would turn my smile into something like I don't know,
Speaker 6: like smile too.
Speaker 3: Yeah, even bigger than that. Yeah, creepy, I got a
Speaker 3: hot bottom when I'm a wrestler entering the ring.
Speaker 1: One of the things that came up on this MO
Speaker 1: was open Ai launches this new AI video tool. It's
Speaker 1: called Sora, and they've the first one came out like
Speaker 1: less than a year ago, and this one is like
Speaker 1: unbelievable already, and a lot of the stuff just looks
Speaker 1: pretty real. Honestly. It comes with a watermark on it,
Speaker 1: but you could take the watermarks off pretty easily. The
Speaker 1: thing is they there's a couple of there's a bunch
Speaker 1: of websites like Google. Google removed Sora watermark. You'll see.
Speaker 1: But and and by the way, you have even funnier
Speaker 1: perhaps you can there's a website where you can add
Speaker 1: the Soura watermark to videos that weren't created by.
Speaker 2: Its kind a good time.
Speaker 1: Yeah, But mo, they launched this AI tool and they
Speaker 1: said all copyrighted content is going to be allowed by default.
Speaker 1: If you don't want your copyrighted content in there, you
Speaker 1: have to like fill an exclusion thing out. They kind
Speaker 1: of changed that, I think pretty quickly. But that seems
Speaker 1: like that seems a little unhinged to go by default.
Speaker 1: We're making it so you said yes to us being
Speaker 1: able to use your copyrighted works on our AI website,
Speaker 1: and it requires action from you to make it so
Speaker 1: people can't use your copyrighted work. Does that sound legit,
Speaker 1: because that seems crazy to me.
Speaker 2: No, I think it's not legit at all. I mean, obviously,
Speaker 2: you know, this whole area there's going to be a
Speaker 2: lot of litigation about. We don't really know what the
Speaker 2: actual laws are going to be in the future for
Speaker 2: but in general, I mean, you know, you can't just
Speaker 2: make a statement I'm going to use all copyright works
Speaker 2: unless you opt out. I mean, that's not the way
Speaker 2: it works.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that was on the heels of the other thing
Speaker 1: we talked about was California passed the law, two of
Speaker 1: them in fact, I think in the last six months
Speaker 1: or so. And one of them said you cannot use
Speaker 1: a dead celebrity or actor or whatever in a performance
Speaker 1: without the explicit permission of their estate I think is
Speaker 1: what we was phrased. And then the other one was
Speaker 1: that living talent isn't allowed to, under certain circumstances, sign
Speaker 1: a deal to have their voice or likeness used. As Ai, so.
Speaker 7: Said unauthorized use. So it makes it seem like they
Speaker 7: left in some room for authorized use, right, Yeah, I
Speaker 7: mean this is all new, it's all new territories. What
Speaker 7: you're saying, like a lot of this has to be
Speaker 7: ironed out, Yeah, I guess, And I.
Speaker 2: Mean arguably, you know, they wouldn't be allowed to use
Speaker 2: a dead celebrity as Ai without their permission anyways, without
Speaker 2: that the estates permission anyways, So they may have just
Speaker 2: been clarifying that even further.
Speaker 1: The other big story this week, and for those of
Speaker 1: you who don't know, I'll go over the very basic
Speaker 1: details in like ten seconds here. But there is a
Speaker 1: guy who's an NFL commentator, guy's ANFL broadcaster. He works
Speaker 1: for NFL games on Fox Sports, and his name is
Speaker 1: Mark Sanchez. They were supposed to be in Indianapolis for
Speaker 1: a football game that happened this past Sunday. But on
Speaker 1: Friday night into Saturday morning, Mark Sanchez, it was allegedly
Speaker 1: at this bar in Indianapolis, he got hammered. He goes
Speaker 1: outside to run wind sprints, because who doesn't get drunk
Speaker 1: and go outside the bar and start running win sprints. Yeah, totally,
Speaker 1: totally normal, and he finds that there's a guy with
Speaker 1: a box truck that's parked in a place that's bothering him.
Speaker 1: It's stopping his wind sprints. After all, just I can't
Speaker 1: even imagine somebody would have the goal. And he jumps
Speaker 1: up in this guy's box truck. Guy apparently had some
Speaker 1: hearing issues and he didn't have his hearing aid in kay.
Speaker 1: He was there at the hotel to change out their
Speaker 1: like oil and stuff and they're they're cooking U and
Speaker 1: they're like cooking set up. I guess they're like a Friars.
Speaker 1: Maybe I don't know it. It's like saying he was
Speaker 1: there to change the cooking oil in the restaurant. It
Speaker 1: says he assaulted grease truck driver. So grease truck. Yeah.
Speaker 1: So he's there to do some work. His vehicle is
Speaker 1: parked in a place to get that work done. Mark
Speaker 1: Sanchez forces his way up into the cab of this
Speaker 1: guy's box truck. The guy's like, get out of here.
Speaker 1: What's going on. The guy tries to pepper spray Mark
Speaker 1: Sanchez to stop him, but I guess the pepper spray
Speaker 1: was too old or something was it didn't stop them
Speaker 1: or Mark Sanchez is just impervious, and so they started
Speaker 1: getting in a scuffle and they're, you know, fighting each other.
Speaker 1: The box truck driver pulls out his knife and stabs
Speaker 1: Mark Sanchez multiple times, stabs him up pretty good, and
Speaker 1: they fought a little bit more and then Mark Sanchez
Speaker 1: zombie walked himself away from the scene. Believe he was
Speaker 1: bleeding bad. He was pretty a critical condition, they said
Speaker 1: when he got to the hospital. But at first the
Speaker 1: stories were all like thoughts and prayers of the family.
Speaker 1: Mark Sanchez, my god, I can't believe the crime is
Speaker 1: so out of control in Indianapolis. But very quickly he
Speaker 1: got arrested in the hospital.
Speaker 3: So the other dude he beat up was in very
Speaker 3: bad shape.
Speaker 1: He ripped his whole face up. I'm sure you've seen that, Sabrina.
Speaker 1: Like the guy who he attacked and then stabbed him,
Speaker 1: his face was really really messed up. And that guy
Speaker 1: immediately sued him, sued Mark Sanchez and Fox Sports so
Speaker 1: we could talk about their liability in this. But more so,
Speaker 1: people did not understand how somebody could be the victim
Speaker 1: who got stabbed and also the criminal. But if the
Speaker 1: other person's acting in self defense, they might get stabbed
Speaker 1: and arrested at the same time.
Speaker 2: Right, right, exactly, It's pretty straightforward once once you learn
Speaker 2: the actual facts, it's I mean, to me Lys' it's
Speaker 2: pretty straightforward.
Speaker 1: What about Fox Sports being held liable for this whole thing?
Speaker 2: So, I mean, typically, at least historically, you know, media
Speaker 2: publications were not liable for reports that they made that
Speaker 2: were inaccurate as long as they were based on something
Speaker 2: that a reasonable person would trust, essentially, so the initial reports,
Speaker 2: you know, whatever that may be. I mean, I watched
Speaker 2: the argument over at the Fifth District Court of Appeal
Speaker 2: one time where this individual sued a bunch of news
Speaker 2: outlets as well as the sheriff's office because the sheriff said,
Speaker 2: you know, Mark Smith, and I'm just making up the
Speaker 2: name obviously committed this bank robbery. Well they had the
Speaker 2: name wrong, and so now this person every time he
Speaker 2: went for a job interview that people would google his
Speaker 2: name and these bank robbery articles came up, and you know,
Speaker 2: they did a retraction, but it never really left the
Speaker 2: internet and it harmed his reputation. But the news company
Speaker 2: was not liable for that because they were basing their
Speaker 2: information on what the sheriff had given a p conference.
Speaker 2: They were basing on that information, and you know, the courts,
Speaker 2: at least at that time, held that the sheriff wasn't
Speaker 2: liable because based on the information they had at that time,
Speaker 2: that was their prime suspect who they believed had committed
Speaker 2: this bank robbery. So even though he had nothing to
Speaker 2: do with it, historically there's been immunity as long as
Speaker 2: you're you know, using you know, kind of good faith
Speaker 2: journalism when you're making these reports.
Speaker 1: No, the on the other side of this, what I
Speaker 1: was getting at, what I was really trying to get
Speaker 1: at MO was the guy in the box truck who
Speaker 1: did end up stabbing Mark Sanchez, but he was the
Speaker 1: person who was getting attacked to begin with. He immediately
Speaker 1: when he got out of the hospital himself, he immediately
Speaker 1: sued Mark Sanchez. Okay, fine, everybody.
Speaker 2: Done, makes sense.
Speaker 1: But he also sued Fox Sports because he said, yeah,
Speaker 1: the employer, Fox Sports, because Mark Sanchez was in town
Speaker 1: in Indianapolis to do the game, and it were not
Speaker 1: for his work, he wouldn't have been there and the
Speaker 1: altercation wouldn't happen.
Speaker 2: Gotcha, I thought they were suing Fox Sports for making
Speaker 2: a false report. About the news article. I see what
Speaker 2: you're saying. They're basically saying that he was within the
Speaker 2: scope in course of his employment, so they're going to
Speaker 2: try to get the employer held liable as well. I
Speaker 2: think it's fairly arguable he's outside of the scope of
Speaker 2: his employment, but that's going to come down to the
Speaker 2: facts of you know, what, was he on the clock,
Speaker 2: was he taking a break, you know, all that kind
Speaker 2: of stuff. The either trying to loopen the employer. They're
Speaker 2: basically saying that he was on the job at the time,
Speaker 2: but really, you know, it's not a situation where he's
Speaker 2: actually at work on site. He's not really.
Speaker 6: Furthering I'm Mark Sanchez, but is it a little safe
Speaker 6: to say that it was probably this guy's attorney or
Speaker 6: his family, because he didn't seem like immediately in the.
Speaker 3: State to call a lawyer. Based on the photo he was,
Speaker 3: he was pretty he was pretty bashed up.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I would assume it was probably his family,
Speaker 2: you know, assuming he's conscious. You know, I'm sure he
Speaker 2: consented to it as well. His family may be handling
Speaker 2: eight year.
Speaker 3: Old, nine year old, yes, sixtee.
Speaker 1: He was sixty nine years old, So yeah, I think
Speaker 1: there was an upgraded charge.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 7: I think the most annoying thing to me about this
Speaker 7: whole story is the fact that drunk ass Mark Sanchez
Speaker 7: was acting like a hall mindy. He didn't have any
Speaker 7: connection to this building that this grease truck was parked at. True,
Speaker 7: just being a doucheback.
Speaker 6: And then went right with a stabbed wound to a
Speaker 6: bar grab another drunk huh No.
Speaker 3: He didn't know delete sorry allegedly, I'm sorry.
