Speaker 1: What? Oh whiplast week? This has been so far, man,
Speaker 1: There is so much stuff happening. That's why it's a
Speaker 1: wonderful part to right here in this show and right
Speaker 1: in the middle of everything, we get to talk about
Speaker 1: all the things going on out there. And we're gonna
Speaker 1: do that today. A new ransom note has apparently just
Speaker 1: been received in the Nancy Guthrie case, which is I mean,
Speaker 1: I don't know, it's so hard to follow this. There
Speaker 1: was a guy who was arrested last night, or at
Speaker 1: least was.
Speaker 4: Was detained last night and questioned.
Speaker 5: Saw that got excited, and.
Speaker 4: Everybody's like, oh my god.
Speaker 1: And then there's rumors out there that said there was
Speaker 1: a helicopter that left the scene and went straight to
Speaker 1: the hospital with a ninety four or eighty four year
Speaker 1: old woman on board the metavac chopper or whatever nonsense,
Speaker 1: completely made up, like there is so much stuff that
Speaker 1: was happening out there. We'll dive in. We'll let you
Speaker 1: know everything happening in the world of viral news and
Speaker 1: all things viral in just a moment. Let's start as
Speaker 1: we always do. Let's put our ears the ground, our
Speaker 1: fingers on the pulse, let's see what's happening to this great, big,
Speaker 1: wide world of ours, and we go to Louisville, Kentucky. Everybody, Yeah,
Speaker 1: that's right. There was a three year old kid missing
Speaker 1: in Louisville, Kentucky. Police arrived on the scene in droves.
Speaker 1: They could not find this little three year old anywhere.
Speaker 1: Sea Lane Jackson is two and some change. Could you
Speaker 1: imagine three and wandering the neighborhood.
Speaker 6: That would be a little terrifying. And again yeah, there's
Speaker 6: no again.
Speaker 1: He got a little ways away, he got into the garage.
Speaker 1: He was he was. He almost broke the barrier. He
Speaker 1: was almost wandering zombie walking down. He never left the property,
Speaker 1: you know, without supervision? You did. We should get one
Speaker 1: of those. Can you get an invisible fence for kids?
Speaker 1: Is that I frowned up?
Speaker 5: I think he swallowing like air tag or something.
Speaker 1: Right, Yeah, you get out of bloop bloop bop, you
Speaker 1: get an alert. Jackson has left the perimeter like a
Speaker 1: little kangaroo pouch. Yeah, I think i'd be good. So anyhow,
Speaker 1: they lose this three year old like Sea Lane did
Speaker 1: that one time, and the Louisville police arrived on scene
Speaker 1: and they were like, we can't find him. We don't
Speaker 1: know where he is until a miracle happened. Now here
Speaker 1: we go, let's tune in. It is there. It comes
Speaker 1: via police bodycam footage from Louisville last month. A missing
Speaker 1: three year old child. More than a half dozen officers
Speaker 1: on the search. They sent up a helicopter but had
Speaker 1: no luck until this happened. All right, so the cops
Speaker 1: are out there in force. There's like half a dozen
Speaker 1: cops on the ground. They got a chopper up in
Speaker 1: the air. They're going door to door. They're trying to
Speaker 1: ask people to look at their doorbell cameras, and they
Speaker 1: had no luck finding this mis missing three year old kid.
Speaker 6: I can't imagine using a helicopter to look for a
Speaker 6: three year old.
Speaker 1: It seems like it's.
Speaker 6: A kind of far away.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's a little bit difficult to spot these guys
Speaker 1: on the ground. But all of a sudden, a mystery
Speaker 1: dog shows up. It goes up to the police officers
Speaker 1: who were looking for this three year old and they're like,
Speaker 1: what's this dog doing here? There's a dog. Where's there's
Speaker 1: a dog? That cop said, oh, what's up, dude. It's like,
Speaker 1: what's up. There's like me talking to an animal, Hello,
Speaker 1: how are you well? That one time and I walked
Speaker 1: out the door and there was a baby possum and
Speaker 1: the my bushes and it's the baby bossum. And then
Speaker 1: I think I would have said it the same way.
Speaker 1: The guy's like, what's up, dude, this happened. There's a dog,
Speaker 1: where's he? Let's go?
Speaker 5: Thank you?
Speaker 1: They were all glass. Sir Josh Thompson responding to a
Speaker 1: dog that seemed to have something important to say, all.
Speaker 7: Right, all the way back to the backyard. And at
Speaker 7: that point I'm thinking, okay, the kid's in the backyard,
Speaker 7: And sure enough, the dog went right to the back bumper.
Speaker 7: Here goes to the back bumper, just sat there.
Speaker 1: After a lesson in car lots, he was in the
Speaker 1: car the whole time, and the dog found him in
Speaker 1: the car and led the police to the car. Now, boy,
Speaker 1: that's a good dog.
Speaker 5: Yes.
Speaker 1: On the other hand, did the parents just leave him
Speaker 1: in the car the whole.
Speaker 8: Time and we had an entire law enforcement group plus.
Speaker 1: Helicopter, no one checked to the car. Like Seiland, I
Speaker 1: feel like the second thing you would check would be
Speaker 1: your truck. Let me go see, is Jack sent to
Speaker 1: the back of the truck sitting in there?
Speaker 6: I mean, I would be pretty sure he wasn't there,
Speaker 6: but I might at least give it a shot.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's in the back of the car.
Speaker 8: Missing kids like those that are have lost their vape
Speaker 8: and immediately they're looking everywhere the car, maybe their grandma's house, publics,
Speaker 8: and until you find it. Because I've seen people lose
Speaker 8: their vape and it's like pure terror in their heads.
Speaker 8: I think this would have been not a news story,
Speaker 8: and you would have found the kid immediately.
Speaker 4: Have you checked your back pocket?
Speaker 1: It's always one of the answers, like have you just
Speaker 1: shut him there? The obvious place they look in the
Speaker 1: back of this car, in the car the whole time.
Speaker 2: Day.
Speaker 1: After a quick lesson in Carlis, I know.
Speaker 7: They've ever seen a half your kid in my life.
Speaker 7: He jumped out the car, bear huged my neck and
Speaker 7: would let me know.
Speaker 1: The job buddy. The dog has seven days in case.
Speaker 7: I don't know where the dog came from, but it
Speaker 7: was a blessing from God that day.
Speaker 1: And here's the thing about that dog. Officer Thompson says
Speaker 1: he'd been patrolling that neighborhood for two years and had
Speaker 1: never seen the dog before that moment, and he hasn't
Speaker 1: seen the dog since that day. The dog, mystery dog, Yeah,
Speaker 1: mystery dog. They never saw the dog in the neighborhood before,
Speaker 1: and they never saw the dog afterwards.
Speaker 8: Did we check that someone is not missing their dog?
Speaker 1: The dog now there's another dog searching for that dog. Yeah.
Speaker 1: It's a brutal cycle. How it goes, Yeah, it goes
Speaker 1: back and forth. Actually, as it turns out, that dog
Speaker 1: died back in October, just like.
Speaker 5: Damn it ceiling for the.
Speaker 1: Reck The kid wasn't missing for seven days, So that
Speaker 1: was that part was not accurate to think it was
Speaker 1: just missing for a little while there.
Speaker 6: Long enough to fly the helicopter out there.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I guess that's true. Yeah, but it was weird.
Speaker 1: I don't I don't know they got the chopper up,
Speaker 1: you know what I mean? Like that seems like I
Speaker 1: do have more questions about it's a miracle and it's beautiful,
Speaker 1: and I'm glad the mysterious dog showed up and stuff,
Speaker 1: But why was the kid in the car for all
Speaker 1: these hours? And how the parents didn't know this? You
Speaker 1: gotta you gotta keep an eye on your kid. Next thing,
Speaker 1: you know, your kids out in the garage just wandering
Speaker 1: around out there, and you don't know what's going on.
Speaker 1: He had just like the power tools in the garage.
Speaker 1: Anything could happen any parent who gets caught up in
Speaker 1: that situation. Power tools. I mentioned that one already, did,
Speaker 1: I Uh. Large skeletons for Christmas decorations for your yards.
Speaker 6: They're right, the classic Christmas skeleton.
Speaker 1: That's exactly what you guys at your house. It's all
Speaker 1: big crossover over at the lane household. Okay, it's all
Speaker 1: big crossover over.
Speaker 6: So you are talking about a specific household.
Speaker 1: Yeah, oh oh shoot, oh did I I'm.
Speaker 8: Sorry to watch your kids and where they're at, or
Speaker 8: give them an extra car fob.
Speaker 1: Alternative lesson we can take from this if we just
Speaker 1: put one mystery dog in every neighborhood problem solved. Nancy
Speaker 1: Guthrie was found weeks ago. Yeah, where is the Nancy
Speaker 1: Guthrie dog? There's no mystery dog there. If they had
Speaker 1: a mystery dog, Nancy Guthrie would be comfortable at home.
Speaker 6: You know what would blow all of our minds, And
Speaker 6: it's not going to happen because I'm saying it out loud.
Speaker 6: Blown same dog, okay, what uh? Same dog finds Nancy Guthrie.
Speaker 6: That would be I would.
Speaker 1: Just retire this week, would just by go.
Speaker 4: You're not gonna get see.
Speaker 1: There's something to this time to check in the other
Speaker 1: backup story that I had for an opener, I might
Speaker 1: as well share with you, And it's part of a
Speaker 1: larger rant that I have just ready to go at
Speaker 1: any point in time here. It could be now, I
Speaker 1: don't know, but streamer culture and unfortunately because this show
Speaker 1: is a streaming show on YouTube and Twitch, and I'd
Speaker 1: encourage you to watch today. You'll love it. I think
Speaker 1: YouTube dot com slash the news junkie, right, But the
Speaker 1: streaming world is full of some of the weirdest absolute losers,
Speaker 1: and the people who are trying to get audiences on
Speaker 1: streaming are acting in such unbelievable levels of desperation to
Speaker 1: get a temporary bump in viewers that you'll never meet
Speaker 1: in your life, that make you feel accomplished, that will
Speaker 1: disappear if you don't do the next crazy stunt that
Speaker 1: risks everything within X amount of days. And I've seen
Speaker 1: so much of this. You want to mention the loser guy,
Speaker 1: the young dude who always is like getting in fights
Speaker 1: or like, you know, his bodyguard is with him while
Speaker 1: he's bumping into other people. That one. Don't you want
Speaker 1: to mention that loser's name. But he recently was a
Speaker 1: golf tournament and he goes up to some guy and
Speaker 1: he's like, hey, here's one hundred dollars, go yell in
Speaker 1: the golfer's back swing when he's about to swing for THEO.
Speaker 8: I won't even do it himself. No, he just goes
Speaker 8: and offers money to people.
Speaker 1: He goes and offers money to randos who have a
Speaker 1: couple of drinks in them in the crowd of the
Speaker 1: PGA thing, and he goes, you know, scream, you know,
Speaker 1: butt liquor, and the guy pulls his club back butt licker,
Speaker 1: and he screws up because this idiot is paying somebody
Speaker 1: one hundred dollars, Like the world is some dumb prank
Speaker 1: for you to be involved in.
Speaker 8: I'm sorry, but if I'm getting a teenager or whatever
Speaker 8: he is with a camera crew, I imagine I'm not
Speaker 8: taking a hundred bucks.
Speaker 1: You Yeah, up, they took it. I think they got
Speaker 1: a couple of people to do it. And then he
Speaker 1: just got booted out, and I'm like, these people are
Speaker 1: so obnoxious.
Speaker 4: I want some of them to legit.
Speaker 1: I want some of them to legit spend time in
Speaker 1: a cell. I do. I know you all. I know
Speaker 1: all of you want, like your political opponents to be
Speaker 1: putting a cell. I want these people in jail. Whoever
Speaker 1: the clar guy is. Take the clovicular guy and this
Speaker 1: guy and put them in a jail cell, and just
Speaker 1: who is gonna miss them? All Right? I don't need
Speaker 1: any of this.
Speaker 4: That brings me to my point.
Speaker 1: There's a stupid kickstreamer, which is the ground zero for
Speaker 1: these kind of things, who decided to take advantage of
Speaker 1: the snow. And here's what happened on a live stream.
Speaker 1: This guy has an axe in his hand because you know,
Speaker 1: while of course you're gonna have an axe in your
Speaker 1: hand when you do something like this, over he goes
Speaker 1: all language is another language, so don't worry about the personal.
Speaker 1: What he jumps from what appears to be like a
Speaker 1: billboard down into the snow. No it didn't die. No, No,
Speaker 1: he literally survived all the way down. He's got about
Speaker 1: about thirty five feet or something.
Speaker 5: Come that seems unsafe.
Speaker 1: Yeah, just really, I want I want some of these
Speaker 1: folks to just spend time twiddling their thumbs in a cell,
Speaker 1: like Gallaine Maxwell in that time lapse video I saw
Speaker 1: last week, which I loved. I was just her being bored. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it's just her in a cell and she's moving around
Speaker 1: and people are like, look how antsy she looks.
Speaker 4: Look at Gallainne Maxwell.
Speaker 1: She's so uncomfortable in this this federal prison, in this cell.
Speaker 4: She can't get comfortable.
Speaker 1: She's getting up and she's moving around in the like
Speaker 1: four minutes of past, and she's grabbing her knees and
Speaker 1: rocking back and forth in the bed, and I'm like,
Speaker 1: who can I want the bad guys to burn.
Speaker 5: That showed me.
Speaker 1: Yes, he's among the bad guys. But because it's terrible.
Speaker 8: I just watched the guy climb the damn the massive
Speaker 8: building and insert place here.
Speaker 1: That guy that is different, that is very different from
Speaker 1: usawn No, because that guy's a professional and literally the
Speaker 1: best in the world at what he does. And these
Speaker 1: are losers who are pounding a fifth of vodka, climbing
Speaker 1: up a billboard and diving a deadly amount down into
Speaker 1: the snow where other kids will watch their stupid influential
Speaker 1: kickstream and go, I too, can get a whole bunch
Speaker 1: of donos if I go up on top of the
Speaker 1: thing and jump down in the snow into a massive
Speaker 1: snow angel. Is dono an actual kick form of currency.
Speaker 4: Just donation? You would know if you were cool.
Speaker 1: But on account of not being cool and losing your
Speaker 1: kid in the garage, you're not keeping.
Speaker 6: Up lose things.
Speaker 1: There was a moment, it wasn't there. It's like or
Speaker 1: he walked out of the door, and then I followed him.
Speaker 1: It's okay, I was disney World.
Speaker 8: Exactly sean US nineties kids survived so much. I went
Speaker 8: into an elevator in Santaba Island to another level.
Speaker 5: I found turned out just fine, didn't I Yeah.
Speaker 1: Don't feel bad ceiling. I mean I literally was on
Speaker 1: the monorail. Noticed my son wasn't on the monorail. The
Speaker 1: monorail at Disney World leaves and I see him waving
Speaker 1: at me as I'm driving away in the monorail, which,
Speaker 1: as you know, you can't just get off one of
Speaker 1: those things. You have to go and stopped it. And guess,
Speaker 1: no stopping You're just saying you were driving, and we
Speaker 1: were in the monorail. We were on the monorail at
Speaker 1: Disney World.
Speaker 5: And now Dylan just takes that ferry.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, he's just he's still there. I don't know.
Speaker 1: I haven't seen him since. So I hired another kid. Yeah,
Speaker 1: so there's a website.
Speaker 5: There in my boot.
Speaker 6: Wouldn't admit to knowing that.
Speaker 1: Yeah, all right, it's a quick break. We have a
Speaker 1: lot to get into today, lots of activity outside the
Speaker 1: Nancy Guthrie story. Why do they keep searching in Annie
Speaker 1: Guthrie's neighborhood. What does this mean? What was the FBI
Speaker 1: saying door to door? I was literally watching them as
Speaker 1: they're going around door to door. I was listening to
Speaker 1: them and the questions they were asking. And there was
Speaker 1: one question that the FBI asked every homeowner that changed
Speaker 1: my mind about a couple of things on this case. Again,
Speaker 1: it's a wild ride. The latest is coming up next
Speaker 1: on the News Junkie. Big thanks to everybody who's been
Speaker 1: watching my videos short form videos on TikTok, Facebook, Instagram,
Speaker 1: all the rest, all the social media platform. I appreciate
Speaker 1: that the one from yesterday before yesterday has broken off
Speaker 1: pretty crazy. I think two point four million on Instagram,
Speaker 1: over two million on Facebook, rocketing up into the stratosphere,
Speaker 1: and I thank you for taking the time to watch it.
Speaker 1: The only thing I can think of in cases like
Speaker 1: this is I didn't want to do short form video.
Speaker 1: I didn't want to do like the TikTok style videos.
Speaker 1: But then looking at all the other stuff out there,
Speaker 1: I was like, this is so bad, Like there's just
Speaker 1: so much garbage out there that I feel like maybe
Speaker 1: I can do something here. And so far, the strategy
Speaker 1: on that this year has worked for me, so thank
Speaker 1: you for watching those. I appreciate that a lot of
Speaker 1: the big details that are rolling in are happening in
Speaker 1: real time, as you can imagine on the show for
Speaker 1: most of you. With the case of Nancy Guthrie, quick
Speaker 1: primer if you're not on board. Savannah Guthrie is a
Speaker 1: host of The Today Show. Savannah Guthrie's mom, Nancy Guthrie
Speaker 1: went missing eleven days ago and has not been seen since.
Speaker 5: I can't believe it's been so long already.
Speaker 4: It's been eleven days.
Speaker 1: And yesterday we were all kind of jaw on the
Speaker 1: floor when out of nowhere, the FBI goes. They were
Speaker 1: able to and some hail mary attempt revived the camera
Speaker 1: and retrieve some videos and photos images of the person
Speaker 1: who shut up at the house, and it was creepy.
Speaker 1: The person was completely covered from head to toe and
Speaker 1: they had gloves on. They went up to Nancy Guthrie's
Speaker 1: door and they ended up abducting her. We believe. Shortly
Speaker 1: after that that led to a couple different conversations and
Speaker 1: eventually here I'm going to get to the updates, which
Speaker 1: are A new note has been received a new note
Speaker 1: allegedly from the abductors.
Speaker 4: What's in that? What's going on?
Speaker 1: What the hell was happening last night with them putting
Speaker 1: somebody in cuffs or you know, apprehending somebody questioning somebody.
Speaker 1: And then the person afterwards was like, I don't know
Speaker 1: who ratted me out, but it wasn't me.
Speaker 4: I'll give you all of that.
Speaker 1: And then I reader there was a note that was
Speaker 1: from not the abductors. Another one, Yeah, it was a
Speaker 1: little ransom. We'll look into all of this and we'll
Speaker 1: give you all the updates that you might need in
Speaker 1: just a moment here. But one thing that was a
Speaker 1: big conversation that I saw in all places online and
Speaker 1: in fact I even had some text back and forth
Speaker 1: in group texts about this with people, was whether or
Speaker 1: not after watching that video you thought the person who
Speaker 1: abducted Nancy Guthrie looked like a professional or a bumbling amateur,
Speaker 1: And like a wild amount of people were like, this
Speaker 1: guy was a total amateur. And I think mostly from
Speaker 1: the like putting the plant on the camera.
Speaker 5: Thing, Yeah, like he looked up what.
Speaker 8: It is to be a professional kidnapper as far as
Speaker 8: what he was wearing, chic kidnapper chic, but it was
Speaker 8: a lot of walking around the plant thing was weird.
Speaker 8: And then we don't have what happened after he got
Speaker 8: through to the door.
Speaker 4: No, no, we don't know happened after that.
Speaker 1: And uh, excuse noids in the background to here. You know,
Speaker 1: we don't know it happened after that, and we don't
Speaker 1: know like even where this guy came from or went obviously,
Speaker 1: but when I watched it.
Speaker 4: I didn't get the exact same vibe.
Speaker 1: Like I don't know if I would say this person
Speaker 1: looks like a hit man for a cartel. No, I
Speaker 1: don't think they look that professional. Maybe we're using different
Speaker 1: words here, Like when I say professional, it is on
Speaker 1: a bit of a curve that goes from this person
Speaker 1: was pretty well prepared, planned and ready to abduct a
Speaker 1: human being to like the far double O seven outskirts
Speaker 1: of that where they would make absolutely no mistakes. And
Speaker 1: if that was the case, then there wouldn't be this video.
Speaker 1: Uh yeah, if they were still good, you would yeah,
Speaker 1: you would not even have had the video to begin with.
Speaker 1: Or I think you one of you pointed out, either
Speaker 1: you see landor you Sabrina pointed.
Speaker 4: Out yesterday, if he was a real pro.
Speaker 1: He would have obviously anticipated a camera, brought some spray
Speaker 1: paint for the camera.
Speaker 4: Lens or like.
Speaker 1: Levels of pro.
Speaker 6: Like you could bring some tape, you could bring something
Speaker 6: to knock it off, or you could bring a Wi
Speaker 6: Fi disruptor that knocks every camera off of the networker
Speaker 6: and there would be no video.
Speaker 1: Are you studying to try to pull this off yourself?
Speaker 1: At some point?
Speaker 5: It's weird Monday quarterback.
Speaker 1: But we'll have to shove that. Let's shelve that, let's
Speaker 1: put that on the side. But I want to know
Speaker 1: from people who have been following this story today, did
Speaker 1: you think this person looked like would you categorize them
Speaker 1: as some bumbling amateur or like some sort of professional,
Speaker 1: Like they planned things out and they knew what they
Speaker 1: knew kind of what they were going to do.
Speaker 6: Aside from trying to cover the camera with plant matter.
Speaker 6: For whatever reason, God knows, there was a lot of
Speaker 6: talk about the way he wore the firearm, and I
Speaker 6: was like, people that are used to having guns, people
Speaker 6: that wear guns on the regular, don't do it that way, right, Yeah.
Speaker 1: Like on on his like he was in the center,
Speaker 1: like above his cross, Yeah, above his crotch crotch, but
Speaker 1: it was a little higher.
Speaker 6: Usually you know, like you wear it on the side,
Speaker 6: which is why they call it a side arm.
Speaker 1: Sure, yeah he was. He had a front arm he
Speaker 1: was giving. Yeah, it was right side flattering. But that's
Speaker 1: not where we're going with this. Sean on YouTube says,
Speaker 1: absolutely not professional in my opinion, Ted says, not a
Speaker 1: pro uh and a lot of other people are chiming
Speaker 1: in on this in real time, which you can do
Speaker 1: over on the chat side of things. I don't know,
Speaker 1: I'm not I'm not viewing pros like Infallible did not
Speaker 1: make any mistakes. I'm viewing pro as had an agenda
Speaker 1: and pulled it off with some professional level of ability
Speaker 1: beyond just some random bumbling dude eleven.
Speaker 6: Days without getting caught exactly.
Speaker 4: Yeah, right, like the person.
Speaker 1: The person got away with it, right, The person has
Speaker 1: not been easy for all of the King's horses and
Speaker 1: all the King's.
Speaker 4: Men to round him up and find him.
Speaker 1: And has been able to skirt law enforcement at all
Speaker 1: these points. Either, you know, there's only two choices. If
Speaker 1: you guys think he's an amateur, right, like, if a
Speaker 1: lot of you think he's an amateur. Then there's only
Speaker 1: two choices from that thought tree. It goes, if you
Speaker 1: think he's an amateur, then either he's just the luckiest
Speaker 1: criminal in the world or the cops are just really
Speaker 1: terrible at their job.
Speaker 8: Here's the thing, It might be both, because it was
Speaker 8: kind of clear to a good majority of people when
Speaker 8: this all broke that it was kind of amateur hour
Speaker 8: when it came to that.
Speaker 5: Jriff's department, that kind that prescott.
Speaker 8: So had the FBI immediately gotten involved, or if we
Speaker 8: had gotten that footage just twenty four or forty eight
Speaker 8: hours later, would we be in a different spot.
Speaker 5: Would we be in day eleven?
Speaker 1: Maybe? And also ceiling and looked this up because I
Speaker 1: only saw a tidbit on this and didn't go any deeper.
Speaker 1: I think at some point the FBI said they tried
Speaker 1: to get involved earlier but were rebuffed.
Speaker 4: See if you could.
Speaker 1: Find that if there's anything to back that up. At
Speaker 1: some point the FBI had made a statement like, we
Speaker 1: tried to get involved even earlier with local law enforcement.
Speaker 1: We heard this story, but they were not allowing us
Speaker 1: into the picture. Now, the FBI taking the reins on
Speaker 1: a lot of these things going door to door and
Speaker 1: going door to door. This brings me to question number
Speaker 1: two in the list of big questions. First question is
Speaker 1: is this person an amateur or some sort of professional.
Speaker 1: I happen to think they're outside of the amateur territory.
Speaker 1: I think they planned a lot for this. They made mistakes,
Speaker 1: but I think overall they were like really locked in
Speaker 1: and planning what they were going to do here. This
Speaker 1: was not some spur of the moment thing. They thought
Speaker 1: this out. They planned this meticulously, and they pulled it off,
Speaker 1: even if there were some bumps in the road. But
Speaker 1: the second question is, in watching all of this from
Speaker 1: the jump, do you think that the person who took
Speaker 1: this woman is the same one that's sending all of
Speaker 1: these notes right now? We don't know, right, We don't
Speaker 1: know that. Well, it definitely not the one I read
Speaker 1: about today, because there's now a ransom, but not to
Speaker 1: get back Annie Guthrie, but to reveal the identity of
Speaker 1: the kidnappers and then ask for a staggering one bitcoin one.
Speaker 1: That's it. Yeah, I got that. I've got the details
Speaker 1: on that. In a second, I've got the details on that.
Speaker 1: We'll hear about what was said in an interview just
Speaker 1: a moment. But the second question is, like, is the
Speaker 1: person who did this the person who's behind those ransom notes?
Speaker 1: And then the third big question is why do they
Speaker 1: keep the investigations of and around the family members so intense?
Speaker 1: For instance, yesterday the FBI was literally going door to door,
Speaker 1: knocking on doors in Annie Guthrie's neighborhood. Now, let me
Speaker 1: let me draw the pick sure here for you, because
Speaker 1: I know they didn't get a little complicated. Savannah Guthrie
Speaker 1: the Today Show host Nancy Guthrie. The mother Savannah's older sister,
Speaker 1: is Annie Guthrie. Annie Guthrie lives about a ten minute
Speaker 1: drive four miles or so away from her mother, Nancy Guthrie.
Speaker 1: Andy Guthrie lives about a ten minute drive about four
Speaker 1: miles away from her mother. Yet the FBI was almost
Speaker 1: exclusively in Annie Guthrie's neighborhood, going door to door yesterday,
Speaker 1: ten days after this woman went missing. Well, we also
Speaker 1: know that she was the last to see Annie Guthrie alive, Yes,
Speaker 1: but then we know that she went home from there
Speaker 1: because she detached from the thing. So they're not looking
Speaker 1: in her neighborhood, in her home where she definitely went afterward.
Speaker 1: They are exclusively seeming to focus on the neighborhood around
Speaker 1: the older sister, Annie Guthrie, and that's curious to me
Speaker 1: and the FBI agents who are knocking going door to door,
Speaker 1: we're asking very interesting questions and I need some more
Speaker 1: information on this one too.
Speaker 4: Not to throw everything in the world at you, but
Speaker 4: why first so you knew.
Speaker 1: What one was can When they went door to door
Speaker 1: in Annie Guthrie's neighborhood, they said, we want to see
Speaker 1: security footage from any cameras you have from when it
Speaker 1: turned midnight into the next day, the day she was missing.
Speaker 1: They want security footage from midnight when it turned midnight
Speaker 1: the day that she went missing.
Speaker 4: This is before any timelines have her as.
Speaker 1: Actually missing, but they want to see the security footage
Speaker 1: of that period in time, which is kind of interesting
Speaker 1: to me. Why wouldn't they be looking in her neighborhood
Speaker 1: after the time that they thought this abduction occurred. I
Speaker 1: don't understand why that's happening. And the other question they
Speaker 1: asked all of them was apparently, can we search your backyard?
Speaker 1: And most houses allowed the FBI to go in and
Speaker 1: search their backyard. Rumor has it that they saw someone
Speaker 1: drop something in one of the yards and that's.
Speaker 4: What they were looking for.
Speaker 1: So it's all very very curious, made maybe even curious
Speaker 1: or by this new note that Selan was just mentioning.
Speaker 1: And we'll get to you if there's any updates on
Speaker 1: anything I said in a second here, But let's go
Speaker 1: to the extra note, the new note on this whole
Speaker 1: thing and what it said we which was sent to
Speaker 1: tmzmz hang on, let me turn this out and sent
Speaker 1: a third letter, please explain and describe what you got
Speaker 1: about ninety minutes ago.
Speaker 3: So an hour and a half ago, we got a
Speaker 3: kind of a bizarre letter, an email from somebody who
Speaker 3: says they know who the kidnapper is and that they
Speaker 3: have tried reaching Savannah's sister Annie and Savannah's brother to
Speaker 3: no avail. And they said they want one bitcoin sent
Speaker 3: to a bitcoin address that we have confirmed.
Speaker 4: Is active everyone's bitcoin.
Speaker 3: Address, and as they put it, time is more than relevant.
Speaker 3: So we have no idea whether this is real or not,
Speaker 3: but they are making a demand. It's interesting that you
Speaker 3: know bitcoin's fluctuate in value, but it's around fifty six
Speaker 3: thousand dollars now.
Speaker 1: One bitcoin.
Speaker 4: Well, I thought it was more than that.
Speaker 6: What's in sixty six to sixty seven?
Speaker 8: Now I'm wondering what time they receive this when that
Speaker 8: news broke and did it just bump up in value?
Speaker 1: Ld It could, but for me, I go, somebody sent
Speaker 1: you a letter demanding one bitcoin and they said they'll
Speaker 1: reveal who the kidnappers are. My alarm bells go off
Speaker 1: and tell me that's just some crazy nutjob emailing.
Speaker 6: It was obsessed with this case, especially when you consider
Speaker 6: the fact that the FBI has offered fifty thousand dollars
Speaker 6: for tips leading to the arrest of kidnapper. So you
Speaker 6: could get fifty thousand dollars, that seems like a little
Speaker 6: more on the table than just a bitcoin.
Speaker 8: Sure, Now, riddle me this because we have stories and
Speaker 8: have talked about cases in the past where they give
Speaker 8: out the tip line and the reward and you get
Speaker 8: a bunch of maybe by the thousands, crazy people. They're like,
Speaker 8: I saw it in my dream, right, this is what
Speaker 8: I need. So TMZ filtered out this one email. Do
Speaker 8: you think there's something to it that they think it's
Speaker 8: more legitimate than very likely other crazy emails they received.
Speaker 1: You know what, I don't. I my gut tells me
Speaker 1: that TMZ saw this and said, we're a big part
Speaker 1: of this story. And if we say we got another note,
Speaker 1: will be a bigger part of this story. But this
Speaker 1: note doesn't seem the same. This note is just somebody going, oh,
Speaker 1: I totally know what's going on, send me a bitcoin.
Speaker 1: It's like, it just seems real fishy. It seems like
Speaker 1: this person is just trying to get some money, as
Speaker 1: opposed to somebody much earlier on mentioning some details from
Speaker 1: the crime scene. All of it, however, astonishing, crazy to
Speaker 1: watch and all the rest. And that's just getting started
Speaker 1: here today. We haven't even talked about the person the
Speaker 1: police questioned last night and these reports of a chopper
Speaker 1: taking off and going to a hospital. We'll get into
Speaker 1: all of that as the show rolls on today when
Speaker 1: we come back. Some of your emails people freaking out
Speaker 1: as their power bills start to arrive after the cold.
Speaker 1: Some of these numbers that you're seeing are crazy. Buckle
Speaker 1: up because these details are going to take you by surprise,
Speaker 1: and that is coming up next in the news Junkie. Well,
Speaker 1: it's been cold, it's been cold. Murdered a couple of
Speaker 1: plants in my yard and made me uncomfortable a couple
Speaker 1: of times. We turned on the heater for like three
Speaker 1: or four days or whatever. But now something is happening.
Speaker 1: After this cold blast, this arctic cold blast, it hit
Speaker 1: the country, and everybody was freezing for like a couple
Speaker 1: of weeks. At least most of the year's still freezing
Speaker 1: out there, but everybody, even Florida was freezing for a
Speaker 1: couple of weeks there. And now people are starting to
Speaker 1: get their first power bills after the cold weather went through,
Speaker 1: and they are melting down. I mean melting down because
Speaker 1: some people didn't realize exactly what was going to happen
Speaker 1: to him. Here. There are people who are now paying
Speaker 1: as much as one thousand dollars for their power bill.
Speaker 4: Is a result of the cold.
Speaker 1: Snap that just hit the country, and power just goes
Speaker 1: up and up and up.
Speaker 8: Even after that email and four phone calls we all
Speaker 8: got from our power company.
Speaker 1: Even after that, is still just skyrocketing bills in the
Speaker 1: power world. And I want to talk about that separately
Speaker 1: in just a moment here, But first, staying on the
Speaker 1: question the power bills that people are starting to get,
Speaker 1: showed the increased spike from turning on heaters from having
Speaker 1: like you know, electric heaters that they were plugging in
Speaker 1: high intensity electrical equipment that.
Speaker 4: You were using.
Speaker 1: You might have thought, well, my air conditioner is not
Speaker 1: on the I'm good to go. Well, your heater is
Speaker 1: doing a lot of work and it is spinning that meter, baby,
Speaker 1: and it's expensive. And so people are opening the mailboxer,
Speaker 1: grabbing their emails from the power company, and they're seeing
Speaker 1: how much all this costs. Somebody on Chat who was
Speaker 1: mentioning their situation earlier said, hey, here's what happened to me.
Speaker 1: I saw two days of my bill. One day was
Speaker 1: like forty bucks. The other day was like fifty bucks.
Speaker 1: They get like a daily thing, a daily email sent
Speaker 1: FP and L in their case, Florida Power and Light
Speaker 1: in their case, and they sent up a daily thing.
Speaker 1: It is like fifty bucks a day as you're rolling
Speaker 1: through some of these days, and that's low compared to
Speaker 1: what some people got. You're getting thousand dollars power bills. Now,
Speaker 1: that's one thing to talk about here. And if you've
Speaker 1: seen a power bill in the last couple of days,
Speaker 1: let us know if it got really expensive for you
Speaker 1: or if more people should be aware of this until
Speaker 1: they get theirs. But this is one of those ones
Speaker 1: that I think hasn't really gripped Americans yet. It doesn't
Speaker 1: make sense to me because I drive down the street
Speaker 1: and I see people just swapping out their protest signs
Speaker 1: every week. It's like eat the rich, or Elon's bad
Speaker 1: or you know, no kings are onto the next one.
Speaker 1: And if you're if somebody is going to do one
Speaker 1: of these about the power bill, I'm with you. I
Speaker 1: will join you, I will go out there on the
Speaker 1: streets the price of electricity are power bills keeps going
Speaker 1: up and up and up and up and up and
Speaker 1: up and up.
Speaker 4: And there is no end in sight.
Speaker 1: And it's like this thing where you go, well, hey,
Speaker 1: what if rent rates stabilize, What if homeownership becomes more affordable,
Speaker 1: What if this goes down? What if homeowner's insurance goes down?
Speaker 1: In this in the state of Florida in particular, none
Speaker 1: of that matters. If other things keep skyrocketing out of control,
Speaker 1: and the power bills have gotten out of control. They
Speaker 1: have gotten out of control. And the most brutal thing
Speaker 1: in the world is there's no competition.
Speaker 4: Yeah, think about your internet.
Speaker 1: Internet. Like your Internet, you could go a bunch of routes,
Speaker 1: right I could have like four different providers if I
Speaker 1: wanted to for my internet right now, easy spot almost
Speaker 1: anywhere now because you have the what's what's the elon
Speaker 1: must starling, you have starlink as an option you have
Speaker 1: there's different satellite options that they have other than Starlink
Speaker 1: Starlinks the big one at the moment. You have in
Speaker 1: most neighborhoods a cable internet provider or two, sometimes at
Speaker 1: least usually one do you have usually like an AT
Speaker 1: and T or maybe a fiber optic line you have,
Speaker 1: you know, there's all of these different options that you have.
Speaker 1: You can even use the cell companies right like most
Speaker 1: of the cell companies will sell a whole home Wi
Speaker 1: Fi that uses a cellular signal to get a pretty
Speaker 1: decent high speed connection. And there's all these options that
Speaker 1: you have to utilize this so it keeps them in
Speaker 1: check and your Internet bill doesn't go out of control.
Speaker 1: I have absolutely insane internet at my house. Okay, I
Speaker 1: have fiber lines running into my house. It is one
Speaker 1: hundred dollars a month. What nobody said nothing about no
Speaker 1: fiber line that's right. How did you have something ready?
Speaker 5: Scaming? I did a jump scale.
Speaker 4: Database that you can search by letters.
Speaker 6: That one's just on my board because I typically just
Speaker 6: stop it after.
Speaker 5: What guaranteed human.
Speaker 6: But the fiber line thing just you know, that's a
Speaker 6: that's a lucky there.
Speaker 1: Fiber lines one hundred bucks. I'm paying for fiber Internet.
Speaker 1: It's like a beyond a gig or something.
Speaker 8: Oh yeah, And then you have those moments where it
Speaker 8: slows down a little bit and they're like, sorry, I
Speaker 8: don't know what to tell you, not me fiber. I've
Speaker 8: had so many of those moments.
Speaker 1: Fiber is good because it doesn't do that. Your fiber
Speaker 1: line is like the most consistent line that you can
Speaker 1: get trusted. Who do you have fiber from?
Speaker 5: ATNT?
Speaker 1: Really I've had no issues like that at all, And
Speaker 1: I mean think about what I'm doing with even just
Speaker 1: the show right now, Like I'm intensely using the connection
Speaker 1: all the time.
Speaker 6: You could your problem could be your WiFi.
Speaker 5: Yeah, well someone's going to nasty call this afternoon.
Speaker 1: It probably is your WiFi. Actually that's where you're going
Speaker 1: to find the variation as opposed to the fiber stuff.
Speaker 1: But the point is you have competition and it keeps
Speaker 1: everybody in check, and they do price deals and stuff.
Speaker 4: And when it comes to your.
Speaker 1: Power, CILI mentions, sure you can have like solar or
Speaker 1: something you can, but mostly you have no choice and
Speaker 1: solar ain't gonna keep you going by yourself in almost
Speaker 1: all cases. You know, the kind of solar setup, I
Speaker 1: would have to have all my house to keep it
Speaker 1: running twenty four to seven and.
Speaker 5: Take Anne for to make up for the money, Uh.
Speaker 1: Oh, yeah, you would. I would have to spend. I'd
Speaker 1: have to give six power walls. I'd have to fill
Speaker 1: my roof with every single solar panel I possibly could,
Speaker 1: and then hope for the best that there weren't any clouds.
Speaker 1: It like, it's really that's that's not perfect. It will
Speaker 1: be at some point in time, but right now we
Speaker 1: don't have a choice. More people should be pissed off
Speaker 1: at the power company. They are really, really, really gouging us,
Speaker 1: and it just goes up and up and up. Nowhere
Speaker 1: in sight is an end on this. Real quick tips
Speaker 1: at the news junkie dot com. A couple of emails
Speaker 1: rolling in. Tell me if you're mad about your power bill,
Speaker 1: tell me if're seeing those big winter power bills, tips
Speaker 1: at the news junkie dot com or send a dispatch
Speaker 1: record years at the news Junki dot com. Fill up
Speaker 1: emails this show, Hey Sean, I saw on Paramount Plus
Speaker 1: a documentary film called Bodyguard of Lies. I'm not familiar
Speaker 1: with this, and it's amazing. I think you will thoroughly
Speaker 1: enjoy it the way you view news and information. It
Speaker 1: has actual footage from different parts of the Afghan war
Speaker 1: and even has interviews with Taliban officers and some of
Speaker 1: the Afghan nationals that helped our forces over there. I
Speaker 1: spent time in both the OEF and the OIF Operation
Speaker 1: Enduring Freedom and Operation what's OEF operation?
Speaker 4: And During Freedom is OEF operation.
Speaker 6: Increasing freedoms, less freedom and I increased it.
Speaker 1: Operation I give up on freedom. I don't know what
Speaker 1: the second one was, Operation of Raki Freedom might be it? Yeah?
Speaker 1: And during Freedom was in Afghanistan, wasn't it? And then
Speaker 1: I RACKI freedom was we were just giving freedom out
Speaker 1: like nothing, freedom like candy. I audibly said duh a
Speaker 1: few times and shook my head in agreement quite a
Speaker 1: few times about some of the information that was brought
Speaker 1: to life in this Bodyguard of Lies. Documentary. It's all
Speaker 1: about the government using keywords to keep the American public
Speaker 1: okay with a continuing war in Afghanistan and so many
Speaker 1: other aspects of that war. Some of the actual footage
Speaker 1: from the wars was a little hard for me to
Speaker 1: watch because of the PTSD of being over there, but
Speaker 1: I think you'd enjoy it. I'll try to check that out. Philip,
Speaker 1: thank you tips of the news Junkie dot com and
Speaker 1: Melanie emails the show. She says, I was watching the
Speaker 1: after show stream By the way, another bonus dream unlocked
Speaker 1: by the awesome folks in chat this week, and I
Speaker 1: think this weekend when I do the bonus dream, I
Speaker 1: might Courtney might come in on that to join me
Speaker 1: for some fun and some videos that didn't make it
Speaker 1: on the show. So if you want to check that
Speaker 1: out YouTube dot com, slash the news Junkie. This is
Speaker 1: Melanie saying, I'm watching the after show streaming. You were
Speaker 1: talking about a lady who got massive fines for barely
Speaker 1: parking on her grass. I thought for sure she'd be
Speaker 1: in Deltona, but it was in Lantana, Florida. Yes it was,
Speaker 1: as she said. Here are code enforcement is well known
Speaker 1: for targeting people who speak out about local issues or
Speaker 1: have negative interactions with our city officials, especially the mayor
Speaker 1: that's corrupt. Just thought i'd share that it's only a
Speaker 1: matter of time before you see a story just like that.
Speaker 4: But from Deltona, Florida. I have a great night.
Speaker 1: But thanks for everything I do or everything you do,
Speaker 1: y'all do, the emailer says, real quick, Sea Lane, bring
Speaker 1: this story up on this Lantana homeowners grass fines. All right,
Speaker 1: the story that I talked about briefly. I don't do
Speaker 1: a lot of stories. It's more just like viral and
Speaker 1: viral clips and fun stuff on the bonus streams. But
Speaker 1: the story that I went over was so wild to
Speaker 1: me and anybody that was watching that that it's worth
Speaker 1: repeating here. It was in Lantana, Florida. A woman was
Speaker 1: parking her tires like an inch or two on the
Speaker 1: grass and her yard, and she was getting a fine
Speaker 1: every day, and she wasn't aware of it for a
Speaker 1: long period of time. And the final fine that they
Speaker 1: gave her for parking like an inch on her grass
Speaker 1: and then having her her fence was damaged by a storm.
Speaker 1: The fine that the HOA put on her was just crazy.
Speaker 6: Did you find this?
Speaker 1: Yeah, it wasn't an ho wait, this is city code violations.
Speaker 1: May yeah, maybe it was. Maybe it was like the
Speaker 1: actual city enforcing the code violations. That's what it was.
Speaker 6: Actually, And it said the homeowner, Sandy Martinez A crewed
Speaker 6: over one hundred and sixty five thousand dollars in fines,
Speaker 6: including over one hundred thousand specifically for parking vehicles with
Speaker 6: tires partially on her grass due to city code violations,
Speaker 6: which imposes a fine of two hundred and fifty dollars
Speaker 6: a day for parking on residential lawns. Now, yeah, one
Speaker 6: hundred thousand divided by two fifty means she did this
Speaker 6: for four hundred days without knowing.
Speaker 1: Ye shouldn't you be alert? Wyer? She said she got
Speaker 1: notified at the beginning, but then she didn't know it
Speaker 1: was a continuous thing, so she thought she could just
Speaker 1: fix it and be past the problem. But they said
Speaker 1: even being two inches on her grass was against the fine,
Speaker 1: and they kept adding on the fine every day until
Speaker 1: the grass fine for two or three inches out of
Speaker 1: the grass was over one hundred thousand dollars, and then
Speaker 1: the fence fine, which she eventually fixed the fence was
Speaker 1: a whole bunch of money too, And the total was
Speaker 1: what'd you say, one's sixty five one hundred and sixty
Speaker 1: five thousand dollars And a judge said the fines weren't
Speaker 1: excessive and that she has to pay them. And I'm like,
Speaker 1: oh my god, like, oh go, if you was crazy,
Speaker 1: I tell you, doesn't matter. You still owe this city
Speaker 1: that much money. They put a lien on the house. Yeah,
Speaker 1: they put a lien on this woman's house.
Speaker 6: You wouldn't able to sell it.
Speaker 1: You wouldn't be able to sell your house unless you
Speaker 1: pay off the money, and that like then you can't
Speaker 1: even sell your house because what's her house worth in
Speaker 1: Lantana with one hundred and sixty grand knocked off it? Anyhow,
Speaker 1: that was a crazy story, and I thought that the
Speaker 1: judge was wrong in saying that wasn't an excessive penalty
Speaker 1: for somebody who was like, I think she's a nurse
Speaker 1: who makes sixty thousand dollars a year or forty maybe.
Speaker 4: Forty whatever the number was.
Speaker 1: I think it might have been forty thousand, because said
Speaker 1: it would take her four years just paying the fines.
Speaker 1: To pay off the fines, that she has four years
Speaker 1: of all of her income just to pay the fine. Okay,
Speaker 1: quick break, we're running behind. When we come back, we'll
Speaker 1: get into something that is very very upsetting. High school
Speaker 1: students have been told they can't do something, all right,
Speaker 1: and they're very upset about this.
Speaker 4: And it's not what you're thinking. What is it.
Speaker 1: We're gonna find out together. And more is coming in
Speaker 1: on the Nancy Guthrie missing person's case, bombshells by the minute,
Speaker 1: and so I'll coming up next in the news, chunkie.
Speaker 1: The kids are complaining these days. First they want to protest,
Speaker 1: they want to go out during school hours and protests,
Speaker 1: and a lot of the schools say, hey, I don't know,
Speaker 1: maybe it's a better idea that you kids actually learn
Speaker 1: to read and write. Seems like there is not a
Speaker 1: lot of that going on these days. And that kind
Speaker 1: of fades out of the headlines a little bit. And
Speaker 1: now this is a very particular thing, I'll tell you
Speaker 1: very quickly before we get onto a big, juicy Olympics
Speaker 1: scandal that's roaring in. But the kids are pissed off.
Speaker 4: They're mad. They're mad.
Speaker 1: The kids in Seattle, Washington are mad because they've decided
Speaker 1: to have the Super Bowl parade during school, and they
Speaker 1: won't let school out, and all the kids are like, well,
Speaker 1: why can't we celebrate good.
Speaker 5: And doing it?
Speaker 1: Yeah, just a regular street parade thing like they do
Speaker 1: after your team wins the Super Bowl. But it's on
Speaker 1: a weekday and it's during school, and the kids are
Speaker 1: raging like why can't we get out of school? And
Speaker 1: the superintendent goes up there and hey, pounds on the
Speaker 1: podium and goes, here's the deal. I want you to know.
Speaker 1: I want you in school learning things.
Speaker 4: You're not going to the super Bowl parade.
Speaker 8: You losers' pay attention in school?
Speaker 1: Why not if they don't whip them or don't whip them,
Speaker 1: But you know, I could just whip them into shape
Speaker 1: basically metaphorically whip them verbally. Some of them really physically
Speaker 1: whip them, but most of them only metaphorically whip them
Speaker 1: into shape. Get back in the classroom, you little winer.
Speaker 1: We had to do it, all of us had to
Speaker 1: do it. We had to go through elementary school, which
Speaker 1: was kind of a good time, honestly, and then middle school,
Speaker 1: which was a little awkward, and then started to get
Speaker 1: a little bully like and then high school, which was
Speaker 1: like a total catastrophe, considering I went to one of
Speaker 1: the worst schools in the country and bounced out of
Speaker 1: that one very quickly.
Speaker 8: You consider your time in all three of those things,
Speaker 8: and did any championship parades happen?
Speaker 1: No, because if Florida teams didn't win anything barely during
Speaker 1: that time, not until I was an adult, And and
Speaker 1: even if they did, the kids would be like, we
Speaker 1: want to go to the parade. No, No, you already
Speaker 1: get a whole summer off. Okay, you get the whole summer.
Speaker 1: When the summer happens, you do all the summer the parade.
Speaker 1: Why do you guys treat these kids this way? Get
Speaker 1: in school, learn. You only have to stay in school
Speaker 1: for like what six hours a day.
Speaker 4: You go on to school, go to school and learn.
Speaker 1: Please let them do it for the rest of your life.
Speaker 1: I don't care about the Moraley. These little kids got
Speaker 1: enough stuff going on. I want them learning. I don't
Speaker 1: care if they're mad that they didn't get to go
Speaker 1: to the super Bowl.
Speaker 5: If they're mad, you been there.
Speaker 8: You've been in school when you are not in the
Speaker 8: mood to learn, and you won't especially show.
Speaker 5: Up all of your peers.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I ruined my entire high school experience like three
Speaker 1: times before saying I gotta fix this and going back
Speaker 1: to high school and getting my high school diploma. Shouts
Speaker 1: out to North Tech and not there any RP to
Speaker 1: the rip to the school. That's where you Billy Madison
Speaker 1: your way through things. No, not really school. It was
Speaker 1: a It was a normal high school, but not normal.
Speaker 1: Like it was a normal high school, but just made
Speaker 1: for for people like me who wanted to just get
Speaker 1: the work done, animal get their high school diploma. No uniform,
Speaker 1: you could leave for lunch, get the there was no there,
Speaker 1: no detention. This was like, this was like going to
Speaker 1: college and getting detention. You go to college, you miss
Speaker 1: a class, The teacher doesn't care if you miss a class.
Speaker 1: You paid for it. You're wasting your money. Yeah, so
Speaker 1: then you gotta pay for it again. You know. The
Speaker 1: punishment is like you gotta do this over and over
Speaker 1: in your GPA faults. But in this case, it was like,
Speaker 1: you don't want to do your work, see you later
Speaker 1: enjoy flipping burgers for the rest of your life or
Speaker 1: whatever the punishment is. And so I put it together.
Speaker 1: These kids don't deserve a Super Bowl parade. Half of
Speaker 1: them don't even care about football, all right, They just
Speaker 1: want any excuse to get out of school. Let's keep
Speaker 1: them in school for now. Then when you're done with school,
Speaker 1: you get to take on the real world and go
Speaker 1: to all the Super Bowl parties. This is just the
Speaker 1: way life goes. There's too many softies like these two
Speaker 1: ceiling and Sabrina like, oh every time, Oh my god,
Speaker 1: you're talking about realistic is go to school like everybody
Speaker 1: else went to school. That's realistic, softee like, go to school.
Speaker 1: We're just talking about it's a lesson. I learned no
Speaker 1: better person than me. I'm not as.
Speaker 5: Let them go to the parade.
Speaker 1: You are are a part of the problem, okay, the
Speaker 1: problem is the problem is. The reason why we have
Speaker 1: so many kids in the United States of America who
Speaker 1: can't read or write is because we have so many
Speaker 1: reasons that we give for them to do anything other
Speaker 1: than reader.
Speaker 5: Some letters on the damn flow.
Speaker 1: I don't tell you we have. We have a million
Speaker 1: excuses that we give them, and we just graduate them
Speaker 1: so we can have one hundred percent graduation rates even
Speaker 1: though some of them can't read the word cat when it's.
Speaker 4: Spelled out in front of them.
Speaker 1: If your school has perfect grades across the mark, then
Speaker 1: if you're on the honor roll, then you could go
Speaker 1: to the parade. Okay, I don't care, but all the
Speaker 1: other kids, and those are the kids who want to go.
Speaker 1: Those are the kids who want to go. The dummies
Speaker 1: who aren't learning any of this stuff. Okay, I'm about
Speaker 1: to ban a whole bunch of you in chat. By
Speaker 1: the way, all these bank No, they're not disagreeing with me.
Speaker 1: They're they're trying to take shots at me right now.
Speaker 1: Say you shot on his period this week, which is
Speaker 1: just stupid, because if you get you know, if you
Speaker 1: too run the world, the world is going to go
Speaker 1: to hell in a handbasketfall.
Speaker 5: Talking chatter us you.
Speaker 1: I'm talking to you. I'm talking to you because these
Speaker 1: are terrible ideas. There needs to be structure, people need
Speaker 1: to learn things, people need to be disciplined, and.
Speaker 4: When that happens, everything goes better.
Speaker 5: There's a better.
Speaker 1: He's yelling at every They're related, They're related, They're related.
Speaker 1: Those two things are related. I'm not on my period. No,
Speaker 1: But I don't care if these kids can't go to
Speaker 1: the Super Bowl parade for God's sake. I mean, Jesus,
Speaker 1: You've got enough things going on. Just enjoy your lives
Speaker 1: and go to school and flirt with people and gossip
Speaker 1: about other kids and learn things and then go home.
Speaker 1: That's the way to do it. Let me know what
Speaker 1: you think, send a dispatch over at the news junkie
Speaker 1: dot com or.
Speaker 4: Tips at the Newsjunkie dot com.
Speaker 1: This is all, honest to God, from me learning lessons
Speaker 1: and trying to impart them on other kids who are
Speaker 1: probably going to make the same damn mistakes. If you
Speaker 1: want to be successful in your life, you have to
Speaker 1: have a vision for you where you want to go,
Speaker 1: and you have to work hard, and you have to
Speaker 1: try to chase after whatever kind of success in life
Speaker 1: is going to make you happy. That's the most important
Speaker 1: thing in the world. Not going to that Super Bowl parade,
Speaker 1: all right, Reading is going to be top of the
Speaker 1: list for me. Let's go over to this super awkward
Speaker 1: Olympic controversy. This is a really strange one. I don't
Speaker 1: know if you guys saw this or not. I saw
Speaker 1: one that sounded pretty damn awkward, and I don't know
Speaker 1: if we're talking about the same thing the skier guys
Speaker 1: that was made.
Speaker 5: Yeah, yes to the private area.
Speaker 1: No no, no, no. This this guy, this person stirla home.
Speaker 1: This guy from Norway, he won the bronze medal and
Speaker 1: then he won the bronze and they're interviewing him on
Speaker 1: TV after his win and he's like, yeah, you know,
Speaker 1: I'm excited that I won.
Speaker 4: I'm excited at the Olympics.
Speaker 1: But I cheated on my girlfriend and I love her
Speaker 1: so much and I just want her to take me back.
Speaker 9: And and and which, by the way, like if you're
Speaker 9: the one who's doing the cheating, now you're putting her
Speaker 9: out there and and she's like she goes into the
Speaker 9: the the attention target.
Speaker 6: Maybe he thinks this is like the you know, the
Speaker 6: high school movie style grand gesture, and then do it
Speaker 6: like like like.
Speaker 1: This is his chance.
Speaker 6: He can say whatever he wants during this interview because
Speaker 6: he just won a bronze medal. And he goes, I'm
Speaker 6: gonna take this time.
Speaker 1: We're going to use up my time on.
Speaker 6: The woman I love, even though I cheated on her,
Speaker 6: because that's you know what's gonna tell her, That's what's
Speaker 6: going to show her that I really am committed to this.
Speaker 1: That is this never been kissed?
Speaker 2: Is it?
Speaker 1: Julia?
Speaker 4: Gulia? What's this guy?
Speaker 1: Is? He is weird? Why are you talking about your
Speaker 1: cheating on your partner?
Speaker 6: I'm this is what he thinks. He thinks this is
Speaker 6: going to be the winning move here. I don't know
Speaker 6: that it is plot twist.
Speaker 5: She got with the gold medal guy.
Speaker 1: We we know because she's chimed in. We have an
Speaker 1: update from her. But first him, let's hear he is
Speaker 1: talking about this, your Olympic bronze medal. How do you feel?
Speaker 1: It's huge? It's my first Olympic medal. Okay, I want
Speaker 1: to thank everyone who has helped me along the way,
Speaker 1: he said, the Waxers for a great day of skiing,
Speaker 1: my whole family for supporting me. So far, so good.
Speaker 1: And there's someone I want to share this with. All right, okay,
Speaker 1: so that's when you're like, all right, you think your family,
Speaker 1: you think all the people here at the Olympics.
Speaker 8: It's a sweet thing that's going to as well.
Speaker 1: Right. But then, and there's someone I want to share
Speaker 1: this with who may not be watching today. Oh. He
Speaker 1: pulls out a note. I think he's looking at a note.
Speaker 1: Six months ago, I met the love of my life,
Speaker 1: the most beautiful, wonderful person in the world, and three
Speaker 1: months ago I made the biggest mistake of my life
Speaker 1: and cheated on her. Oh gosh, and that's all I've
Speaker 1: been thinking about for a week. That's why I got
Speaker 1: bronze red flag.
Speaker 5: So there was only a six month relationship, or I guess.
Speaker 1: It was a short relationship.
Speaker 4: The love of his life and he cheated on her.
Speaker 1: And he's crumbling and crying at the Olympics after winning
Speaker 1: the bronze talking about this, this person he cheated on,
Speaker 1: spend the worst week of my life.
Speaker 4: So I had a.
Speaker 1: Gold metal in life. I'm sure there are many people
Speaker 1: out there now who see me in a different light,
Speaker 1: but I only have eyes for her now. I'm not
Speaker 1: quite sure what I want to say here now. Well,
Speaker 1: stop stop saying he's like an attorney yesterday. Can we cut?
Speaker 10: Can we cut?
Speaker 1: I think we need to cut? Please? Well you want
Speaker 1: to cut because I just said a lot of things
Speaker 1: and I can't take them.
Speaker 4: Back right now.
Speaker 5: God, And you said that, she responded.
Speaker 4: She responded.
Speaker 1: She responded, he said, it's been the worst week of
Speaker 1: my life, so the math isn't great. Here.
Speaker 6: He met the girl six months ago, she did three months,
Speaker 6: and he cheated, but she's the love of his life
Speaker 6: and this has been the worst week.
Speaker 1: How long did the cheating go on? When did he
Speaker 1: get caught? It doesn't, it doesn't say, I don't know,
Speaker 1: but that's an interesting question, and I would say an
Speaker 1: important one. Important. This week the worst week of her life.
Speaker 1: I'm sorry.
Speaker 6: You're competing in the Olympics and you want a bronze medal.
Speaker 6: That's got to be something.
Speaker 1: Yeah, but now how she's roped into this Stirla Lagarad's
Speaker 1: ex girlfriend has responded after you publicly admitted to cheating
Speaker 1: during the Olympics. In this awkward moment, the ex girlfriend says,
Speaker 1: it's hard to forgive even after a declaration of love
Speaker 1: in front of the whole world. I did not choose
Speaker 1: to end up in this situation and it hurts to
Speaker 1: have to be in it. We have been in contact
Speaker 1: and he is aware of my views on this. It's like, dude,
Speaker 1: did you maybe make a second mistake by doing the
Speaker 1: whole proclaiming your love and apologizing for cheating? Yes, yeah,
Speaker 1: I think so. I think so, But I do want
Speaker 1: to put it out there what do you think, everybody
Speaker 1: chat dispatcher's email romantic or cringe? Which one of those
Speaker 1: do you land on here? Romantic or cringe? Was this
Speaker 1: a romantic gesture from a man who made a mistake
Speaker 1: like Celi was saying something out of a movie or
Speaker 1: was this cringe for him to bring her up?
Speaker 4: And now it's awkward and they got to go. So
Speaker 4: what do you think?
Speaker 8: Well, there's probably gonna be some reporters someone reaches out
Speaker 8: to her.
Speaker 5: Any response to your weird expert who.
Speaker 1: Got ns Well that no, that's literally what happened. She said.
Speaker 1: It's hard to forgive even after a declaration of love
Speaker 1: in front of the whole world. I did not choose
Speaker 1: that up in this situation. Yeah, and it hurts, she said,
Speaker 1: it hurts to have to be in it.
Speaker 5: Man, they're really in love for three months? Huh.
Speaker 1: That is so strange to me. I think like this
Speaker 1: is a personal thing. Win the bronze and go there's
Speaker 1: somebody that's really in my thoughts in my heart right now.
Speaker 1: But I'm going to have a personal conversation with them.
Speaker 1: Thanks to everybody, I'm proud to have gotten.
Speaker 4: The medal here for Norway.
Speaker 1: God bless and have a great night, see you later Olympics,
Speaker 1: and then the camera goes off and then you get
Speaker 1: on the phone and go, hey, I didn't want to
Speaker 1: bring you up by name or anything, and I didn't
Speaker 1: want to say anything, but I've just been struggling this
Speaker 1: whole time with me cheating. I made such a mistake,
Speaker 1: and I love you when I want you back. But
Speaker 1: private phone.
Speaker 8: Call him crying like that and saying that sentiment. You
Speaker 8: know that he has called during the last three months
Speaker 8: four hundred times.
Speaker 1: Right probably she said he knows how I feel.
Speaker 5: NonStop.
Speaker 1: That's very strange. Let us know what you think, senatorspatch
Speaker 1: over at the Newsjunkie dot com. Was it romantic or cringe?
Speaker 1: Let us know when we come back. More updates on
Speaker 1: the Nancy Guthrie case that is entering day eleven. Here
Speaker 1: a lot of emails people chiming in on the topics
Speaker 1: that we've discussed so far. We've got to get down
Speaker 1: on what happened in Canada. That's pretty crazy. A lot
Speaker 1: on the way. That's all coming up next on the
Speaker 1: News Junkie. We'll get into some of the actual Super
Speaker 1: Bowl ratings are in now and some interesting information around
Speaker 1: that that we'll talk about in a moment. But I
Speaker 1: was just chatting with the stream people strangely enough, that'll
Speaker 1: make sense in a second here. But I asked a question,
Speaker 1: personal question, and I just expect complete honesty from everybody
Speaker 1: on this. And I've like been debating making a change
Speaker 1: minor minor change in my life. When I wake up
Speaker 1: in the middle of the night, like let's say it's
Speaker 1: three o'clock in the morning right which, yes, it is
Speaker 1: pitch black outside, and I have that moment where I
Speaker 1: got to wake up. And you know, certainly Sea Land
Speaker 1: probably had one of these last night after all that
Speaker 1: THHC he drank, I did, I had to pee.
Speaker 6: I didn't want to, and then I did. I woke
Speaker 6: up at three something because the baby started crying. Oh
Speaker 6: gohead that was still high.
Speaker 1: I was like, I did not want to deal with
Speaker 1: this baby. Too hot for the baby. Put them back
Speaker 1: in the garage. I can't deal with it right now.
Speaker 1: I know that you went through this then last night
Speaker 1: worse than me, far or worse than than I did.
Speaker 1: But you know the first thing you do, and you
Speaker 1: already admitted this, Sea Let is if you have to
Speaker 1: pee at it's like three o'clock in the morning, you start
Speaker 1: bargaining with yourself. Can I just I just want to
Speaker 1: go to sleep? Can I just I don't need to
Speaker 1: do this now, I'll put this off. I'll be fine.
Speaker 6: The amount of time that I take to convince myself
Speaker 6: you probably won't pee yourself. Yeah, you'll be fine.
Speaker 5: Is it like a physical thing that men have to do?
Speaker 1: It?
Speaker 6: Beagless?
Speaker 1: It's not. It's not necessarily escalating to that point, Sabrina.
Speaker 1: But it's like right before it. It's right before where
Speaker 1: you go, I could hold it, but I'm sleeping. I
Speaker 1: know I'm not gonna pee the bed, but just I
Speaker 1: really have to pee right now. And so you make
Speaker 1: the decision and you go, all right, I'm gonna I'm
Speaker 1: gonna pee when you do this. The question that I
Speaker 1: was asking to the chat people, I'll ask to you
Speaker 1: seal it and Sabrina. Now do you guys, if you
Speaker 1: have a middle of the night session where you have
Speaker 1: to pee real quick, do you turn on the light?
Speaker 4: No?
Speaker 8: No, I I have to And that means I will
Speaker 8: go because I have a bathroom in my room, and
Speaker 8: that I will not turn the light on, but I'll
Speaker 8: just go to the other bathroom and turn the light
Speaker 8: on so.
Speaker 1: You can hurt myself. You'll go a little further, turn
Speaker 1: on the bathroom so you can see what you're doing,
Speaker 1: and then you go to the bathroom in there.
Speaker 4: And come back.
Speaker 1: I'm so worried, and I don't know if there's any
Speaker 1: signs to this. I'm so worried that if I turn
Speaker 1: the light on, it's gonna wake me up too much.
Speaker 6: Absolutely, that's definitely a concern.
Speaker 1: And I'm trying to stay in this zombie like state
Speaker 1: when it's three o'clock in the morning and I'm making
Speaker 1: my way to the bathroom and I get in there
Speaker 1: and you.
Speaker 5: Sleep on the toilet. That's happened once or twice.
Speaker 1: No, I've never been back in that sleep.
Speaker 6: Yeah, I just get right back, not in years those
Speaker 6: two houses ago.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I gokay as quickly as I can in the dark,
Speaker 1: and then I try to go right back to sleep
Speaker 1: so I can seamlessly get back to you know, what
Speaker 1: I was doing, or maybe even the dream that I
Speaker 1: was in or something. But as of last night, I
Speaker 1: tried to do this. I'm like, is this going in
Speaker 1: the toilet? I got the toilet set up. I'm like,
Speaker 1: I don't know, am I is this going on the
Speaker 1: toilet set? And I said, do most people turn on
Speaker 1: the lights or go in the dark because they're worried
Speaker 1: about the same thing that I am. Because I I
Speaker 1: swear to myself, Sean, if you turn on the light
Speaker 1: and then properly know that you're not peeing all over
Speaker 1: the place, because sometimes after I go, it'll wake Courtney
Speaker 1: up and then she'll have to go and I'll be like, oh,
Speaker 1: such a lot of peat. Good no, good luck in there.
Speaker 1: I just peed all over everything. Yeah, I don't know
Speaker 1: what I did.
Speaker 5: I close the toilet seat lit every time.
Speaker 8: That is no a routine or its automatic because of
Speaker 8: what we learned about toilet plu.
Speaker 6: If I'm getting up to pee in the middle of
Speaker 6: the night, it's it's a sit down. Yeah, sure, yeah,
Speaker 6: there's no I'm not trying to worry about aiming now. Occasionally,
Speaker 6: just if it's too dark in there. I have like
Speaker 6: the bathroom, like the that's that's in the primary bedroom.
Speaker 1: I have the master bathroom.
Speaker 6: Uh huh, and then that has a closet that juts
Speaker 6: out of that and sometimes I'll turn on the light
Speaker 6: to the closet, but not the bathroom. I don't go
Speaker 6: in there. I'm not going in the closet, but enough
Speaker 6: light is gonna kind of reflect around there and just
Speaker 6: give me enough of a glow that I'm not directly
Speaker 6: getting like, uh, you know, too woken up, like an
Speaker 6: in between, You're like, there's some light in the area,
Speaker 6: so I could see my feet on the ground. I
Speaker 6: want my pupils to stay big. Yeah, some of you
Speaker 6: are weird.
Speaker 1: Though you got there. There does need to be a
Speaker 1: purge in this chat. Some of you are weird. Why
Speaker 1: don't you just pee in the shower? What that's weird talk.
Speaker 1: That's gonna wake me up more If I pee in
Speaker 1: the shower, then I'm like trying to make sure it's
Speaker 1: all showered down the drain or something.
Speaker 8: I got that blow y'all's minds. And I'm sorry I
Speaker 8: didn't mention this before. It was a Christmas gift last year.
Speaker 8: I have a censor disco ball in the guest bathroom.
Speaker 1: Toilet, a disco ball.
Speaker 8: Every time that there's any sort of motion, there is
Speaker 8: a disco party.
Speaker 5: In the toilet bowl. Therefore you could see it nowhere
Speaker 5: to pee inside the toilet. Inside the toilet.
Speaker 8: Oh but once once you're like, you know where the
Speaker 8: toilet's at.
Speaker 5: Once it sees your butt.
Speaker 4: So there's a light on the rims.
Speaker 1: You're not encountering as many issues as as I am
Speaker 1: on account of I'm standing up. I'm standing up and
Speaker 1: I'm worried about.
Speaker 5: Oh, it'll stay disco for you. I'm gonna get that
Speaker 5: free birth No, but.
Speaker 1: It's pitch black. I don't have the disco ball. And
Speaker 1: I'm like, I don't know what I'm hitting here. I
Speaker 1: hear water. I think sometimes it helt it on my knees. Right,
Speaker 1: I'm I'm a literally, I kid you not, folks.
Speaker 4: I'm closing my eyes.
Speaker 1: I will say, I will close my eyes so I'm
Speaker 1: closed so that sleep stay. And then I go, well,
Speaker 1: now I've made a mess here, I think, And if
Speaker 1: Courtney has to go next, I don't want to have
Speaker 1: to sit and pee. That's disgusting. So now I'm cleaning
Speaker 1: up then washing my hands on. Maybe I should have
Speaker 1: just turned the light on to begin with. Could have
Speaker 1: saved a lot of time. I could have really fixed
Speaker 1: this for myself. But if that's something you struggled with too,
Speaker 1: please join me in your confessions over at Tips at
Speaker 1: the news junkie dot com or a dispatch, it's a
Speaker 1: newsjunkie dot com.
Speaker 4: Real quick on the super Bowl.
Speaker 1: Last super Bowl update, probably I saw that the ratings
Speaker 1: were finally in. Now there was a weird thing where
Speaker 1: they there was a news story that said what the
Speaker 1: ratings were, and at the time, I'm.
Speaker 8: Like, what, yeah, very quick, NBC Sports had put something
Speaker 8: out like one hundred and thirty five.
Speaker 1: I thought it was CBS that had put out the
Speaker 1: first thing, which didn't even make sense at all because
Speaker 1: they weren't even broadcasting it. But whoever released the first thing,
Speaker 1: they don't have ratings a couple hours after the super Bowl,
Speaker 1: certainly not any ratings that anybody talks about. So I
Speaker 1: was wondering why anybody ran with that and why that
Speaker 1: was everybody was talking about. I feel like there was
Speaker 1: just so many people who wanted to do a bad
Speaker 1: Bunny is the most popular party that they were just
Speaker 1: like the biggest super Bowl ever And wait, hold on,
Speaker 1: you get the twenty four plus one or whatever the
Speaker 1: hours are that Nielsen releases, you don't get them for
Speaker 1: a full day afterwards. That's when you get the ratings
Speaker 1: on the super Bowl. And who was viewing it and NBC.
Speaker 1: I think the original report was at one hundred and
Speaker 1: thirty five million, which would have made it like the
Speaker 1: most watched super Bowl. That was not accurate. That was
Speaker 1: off by over ten million viewers. It was one hundred
Speaker 1: and twenty four or twenty five million people that watched
Speaker 1: this Super Bowl. And the halftime performance was also down
Speaker 1: from last year. So Kendrick Glamar was actually more popular
Speaker 1: in terms of viewers, and the Super Bowl viewership was down.
Speaker 1: And this will shock precisely no one in almost all
Speaker 1: markets save for Seattle, and I think New England too,
Speaker 1: but save for Seattle, the second half, including like the
Speaker 1: third and fourth quarters, were dropping. People were like bored
Speaker 1: with the game and they were just tuning out and
Speaker 1: they were getting out of there at the end of
Speaker 1: the game. It was not as well viewed as last
Speaker 1: year's Super Bowl, and the numbers fell off at a
Speaker 1: couple points. Most of it was like in the third quarter.
Speaker 1: Somebody says, literally all sports, NFL regular season and playoffs included,
Speaker 1: have been seeing crazy increases in ratings this year with
Speaker 1: the new Nielsen methodology, which is a whole thing. I
Speaker 1: can explain it if anybody actually cares, but you probably don't.
Speaker 1: For Super Bowl ratings to go down from last year
Speaker 1: is something the NFL is assuredly not happy about. I
Speaker 1: don't know if it goes to that extreme. I think
Speaker 1: they're probably still happy with the numbers. They were also
Speaker 1: happy that they broke all of their previous social media records,
Speaker 1: and again no surprise here, over fifty percent of the
Speaker 1: views on the social media content came from outside the
Speaker 1: United States. From South America and Central America is where
Speaker 1: the most that most of those social viewers that exploded
Speaker 1: came from.
Speaker 6: Well, also, I read somewhere that the NFL's social posts
Speaker 6: were largely about the halftime show and not as much
Speaker 6: about the game, which, honestly, it's because the more exciting
Speaker 6: part of the broadcast.
Speaker 1: What you like post about a Fueld goal, Yeah, I don't,
Speaker 1: And that's that's the biggest problem. Screw the halftime show.
Speaker 1: You need better narratives to make the game more exciting.
Speaker 1: People were tuning out the board.
Speaker 5: Streaker that would have bumped some numbers.
Speaker 1: Yeah, they don't like to do that. But there's a
Speaker 1: group here that has more details about the actual moments
Speaker 1: that people were tuning out and I'll get into that
Speaker 1: in a bit here on the show as we roll
Speaker 1: on a little more, but we.
Speaker 4: Want to hear from you.
Speaker 1: Get those dispatches and emails in still so much on
Speaker 1: deck on a very busy Wednesday, when we come back
Speaker 1: the next episode with Sabrino, what's coming up on the
Speaker 1: next episode.
Speaker 8: What's on the next step the episode, Kid Rock has
Speaker 8: weigh in on the did he didn't he? It really
Speaker 8: looked like he did lip sync the boogie. Say goodbye
Speaker 8: to the divide and controversy of the Super Bowl halftime
Speaker 8: show because Dave Drayman is here to save the day
Speaker 8: or make it much worse.
Speaker 5: Plus leave Brittany cashing the f out alone. Hold on
Speaker 5: so much more coming up on the next episode.
Speaker 1: And that is coming up next on the News Junkie
Speaker 1: Are We're going to get see your feedback. I haven't
Speaker 1: played any dispatches, but they are cute up and there's

Speaker 1: of emails, all the feedback that's been coming in over

Speaker 1: of the next segment. Right now, let's get into it.
Speaker 1: Let's do the next episode. Because there's a lot on TV.
Speaker 11: You can't possibly keep up with all of it, even
Speaker 11: though you should, because what else are you going to

Speaker 5: Team in nineteen eighty six, So that's insane.
Speaker 8: I imagine this was before that whole handcuffed to prostitute
Speaker 8: to his wall because he tried to steal fromhim.
Speaker 6: Right, maybe they're not money.
Speaker 1: You think if if boy George was walking down the
Speaker 1: road and had no like makeup or anything on. Nope,
Speaker 1: I think you would recognize that person.
Speaker 8: Ah, do we even have a picture of him without
Speaker 8: his look?
Speaker 1: It would be like Robert Smith from The Cure. I
Speaker 1: think Robert Smith from the Care with no makeup or
Speaker 1: anything on other than the hair, I might go, I
Speaker 1: got a weird hair like Robert Smith.
Speaker 5: He hasn't washed it in.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's very very strange.
Speaker 5: Oh, not so strange.
Speaker 8: And uh, I guess a lot less money than boy
Speaker 8: George got forty years ago. I wanted to give a
Speaker 8: shout out while we have the time here.
Speaker 6: It just looks like a bald guy with some facial
Speaker 6: you have it?
Speaker 1: Yeah, the picture please the boy George. Yeah, the Google
Speaker 1: boy George without makeup? About makeup? They never thought we'd
Speaker 1: be doing this today.
Speaker 5: Did I. I'm sure it takes a lot of.
Speaker 1: Time to Oh my god, you're right.
Speaker 4: Oh he looks like a little faster or something.
Speaker 1: Go.
Speaker 5: Yeah, the old flavor saver we have to look out for.
Speaker 1: He's got some tats. Nowadays, he's got a couple of
Speaker 1: tats on the side of his face, a peace sign
Speaker 1: and a cross and.
Speaker 8: Stuff and what rhymes with tats cats very quickly. Big
Speaker 8: time supporter of the show. Listener to the show, Sam Songbird.
Speaker 8: She has a cat and this cat is has no
Speaker 8: eyes and her name is Lucia.
Speaker 5: Get it because you can't see anything.
Speaker 8: Sam comes to karaoke, has been for years, and I
Speaker 8: got introduced to Lucia, who is really cool and is
Speaker 8: in a carriage and is now in second place for
Speaker 8: America's Favorite Cat. Oh wow, America's Favorite Pet dot com.
Speaker 8: And I think today may be the last day to vote.
Speaker 5: So this is my call out.
Speaker 8: Give some support because she just put in the care
Speaker 8: for this cat, save the cat from getting euthanized, and didn't.
Speaker 1: Win America's Favorite Pet.
Speaker 8: You get the juice, Yeah, pretty much. If you don't vote,
Speaker 8: the cat dies.
Speaker 1: Wow.
Speaker 8: No, I'm saying Sam adopted the cat and has given
Speaker 8: the cat great care, put the cat in this contest
Speaker 8: and now in second place with like I mean, tens
Speaker 8: of thousands of other contestants. So great to America's Favorite
Speaker 8: Pet dot Look for Lucia.
Speaker 1: You can't miss.
Speaker 8: It's the cat without eyes and it maybe they could
Speaker 8: be in the cover of a modern cat and ten
Speaker 8: thousand buck rows or more cat care. So shout out
Speaker 8: to Lucia. I hope you win.
Speaker 5: Maybe though, maybe they'll give the cats some eyes.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't know if you could do that.
Speaker 5: But it would be nice there sound shot for sure.
Speaker 8: Now let's go to someone with eyes and ears, and
Speaker 8: I feel like mostly eyes. We all agreed that Kid
Speaker 8: Rock was lip syncing during the the TP halftime All
Speaker 8: American Show.
Speaker 1: You have all of the damn clips of this I've seen.
Speaker 1: I never actually listened to him sing other than like
Speaker 1: one second or two.
Speaker 8: So I all means, let's play it and maybe have
Speaker 8: a reassurance of where we all stand with it.
Speaker 1: Now.
Speaker 8: Kid Rock did sit down with lour Ingram on Fox
Speaker 8: News to respond to people saying that his halftime performance
Speaker 8: was lip sync. I'm also very curious to what he
Speaker 8: has to say because it seemed.
Speaker 1: Turning points halftime show thing.
Speaker 8: Skips forty seconds. It was him just doing the intro to.
Speaker 4: I don't know which one I'm supposed to.
Speaker 8: I just got a link to a shoh that was
Speaker 8: him talking to Laura Ingram.
Speaker 6: But I'll send you a link where he can find it.
Speaker 8: Laura asked about his song bab de Ba that appeared
Speaker 8: out of sync during the turning Point us A halftime show,
Speaker 8: and he said it was out of sync. Cool then explain,
Speaker 8: as DJ was filling in vocal parts off camera while
Speaker 8: he jumped around the stage.
Speaker 1: I think I think I have a clip of this.
Speaker 1: Let's see you.
Speaker 9: Right.
Speaker 1: Well, he's not even singing it in the mic right now? Yeah,
Speaker 1: alright there, like Jesus, I mean, and there's like a
Speaker 1: sink issue, if there's a sink issue whatever, but maybe
Speaker 1: the sink issue is that he's lip syncing but it's
Speaker 1: not matching up at all, Like it's way off.
Speaker 8: He said the problem showed up even in rehearsal edits
Speaker 8: and blamed a difficult production process, not lip syncing. He
Speaker 8: also put up a video on Instagram with his DJ
Speaker 8: explaining the process.
Speaker 1: So he's saying it's like two seconds off, though it's
Speaker 1: like a lot off. He's saying he was not lip syncing.
Speaker 6: But the the which we were complaining about on Monday,
Speaker 6: the pre canned aspect of this, the editing of it,
Speaker 6: was what screwed him up.
Speaker 8: That it was out of sync, and that is DJ
Speaker 8: explained the process and it was him filling in the vocals.
Speaker 8: So that's I mean, a creative excuse, and take with
Speaker 8: what you will at this point, I don't know what else.
Speaker 5: We take his word for.
Speaker 6: It or we well, maybe don't lean on people who
Speaker 6: make your products suck.
Speaker 5: I mean, maybe there's a DJ available now for hire.
Speaker 1: Imagine if they really live then it might have been
Speaker 1: a real mess if they actually did that thing love
Speaker 1: drop up the boogie.
Speaker 8: And finally, this guy right here, Britt Britney Spears is
Speaker 8: right here.
Speaker 1: We go no no, and.
Speaker 8: She lets something go all right, And that was her
Speaker 8: massive catalog that has now been struck its in a
Speaker 8: new deal. Now we're getting rumors of how much exactly,
Speaker 8: but good god, if this is true. According to legal
Speaker 8: docs attained by you guess that TMZ, she just hold
Speaker 8: her ownership share of her catalog to Primary Wave. Now
Speaker 8: unclear how much she was paid, but sources are describing
Speaker 8: landmark deal ballpark of two hundred million dollars.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's not surprising.
Speaker 5: She was managed by Cad Hudson Cade.
Speaker 1: Oh, I say, I did not know that piece of trivia.
Speaker 6: Kate really thought she made all that money from twenty
Speaker 6: seven dresses?
Speaker 1: Yeah?
Speaker 5: Really, all right, fools.
Speaker 8: Gold put pen to paper to sell the music on
Speaker 8: December thirtieth, and we're just hearing about it now. She's
Speaker 8: happy with the sale and has been celebrating by spending
Speaker 8: time with her children. And if you're happy spending time
Speaker 8: watching the boobtube, here's the list for you. Olympic Winter Games,
Speaker 8: Ghost Sports, the Mass Singer on Fox, episode eight of
Speaker 8: Star Search on Netflix, second season of Cross, ten years,
Speaker 8: premiere of Love Is Blind, and you can catch Nick
Speaker 8: Kroll on Kimmel. Follow your dreams of me on Instagram
Speaker 8: at Sabrina and Brun most importantly, play with me Maric.
Speaker 1: Smoped every day. Thank you, Sabrina. I'm kind of amazed
Speaker 1: that Britney Spears is still doing like one hundred million
Speaker 1: dollars two hundred million dollar deals. I mean, in the
Speaker 1: state that she is, for playing that old music though
Speaker 1: all the stuff, you know, I'm not surprised that it's
Speaker 1: wor the money. I'm surprised that somebody's allowed to like
Speaker 1: sign contracts and deals in that state. But of course
Speaker 1: if they weren't, I guess they would be in a
Speaker 1: conservatorship and then nobody else is where That's where we started,
Speaker 1: That's where this whole thing started. But yeah, I'm I
Speaker 1: actually am surprised the it's not more than two hundred
Speaker 1: million she gots.
Speaker 6: Has anybody gotten granular on this idea of selling their
Speaker 6: music library where they're like, Okay, you can have some
Speaker 6: of the later stuff, but if you want Baby one
Speaker 6: more Time, if you want Toxic, hold those back. I
Speaker 6: have to pay a little more, you know, or somebody
Speaker 6: else is going to get those two tracks and just
Speaker 6: you know.
Speaker 1: What percentage of them it was, And like if she's
Speaker 1: holding onto any But I had heard a lot of
Speaker 1: stories about her running out of money, so a lot
Speaker 1: of stories about Britney spears just like burning through cash.
Speaker 8: Oh, I mean, she's always out of town doing the
Speaker 8: dances in front of camera, says you drive me crazy,
Speaker 8: Baby one more time, break the ice circus. Don't let
Speaker 8: me be the last to know every time, give me
Speaker 8: more if you seek prerogative. Oops, like the biggest bangers,
Speaker 8: I would say, is part of this deal. Yeah, that
Speaker 8: makes her part of the group of like Bieber, Bruce Springsteen,
Speaker 8: Bob Dylan, Paul Simon, Sting, Phil Collins that have all
Speaker 8: sold like eighty percent or more of their sake.
Speaker 1: Yeah. I mean she doesn't have like the biggest catalog overall,
Speaker 1: but of that catalog, a lot of songs I think
Speaker 1: are ones that people will go yep, I know that, Yep,
Speaker 1: I know that, yep. You know. I think they would
Speaker 1: recognize a lot of them. All Right, as we said
Speaker 1: to your feedback, will we come back? You're firing off emails.
Speaker 1: Keep those coming.
Speaker 4: Tips at the.
Speaker 1: Neewsjunkie dot com. Nancy Guthrie updates on the way the
Speaker 1: situation in Canada that is pretty shocking. Some of the
Speaker 1: reporting around this has been interesting. We'll get into all
Speaker 1: of that and more. It's coming up next in the
Speaker 1: News Chunkie. The goal with all of the content that
Speaker 1: I want to create is to try to bring more
Speaker 1: people into the funnel, get more people watching the show,
Speaker 1: get more people on the stream, get more people doing
Speaker 1: all of that stuff. And I think all this will
Speaker 1: help and you can take part in trying to make
Speaker 1: that successful if you follow along at the News Junkie
Speaker 1: on all social media platforms that you could think of,
Speaker 1: this one, that one, and I appreciate that. You can
Speaker 1: also follow Sabrina and Silane over on the news junkie
Speaker 1: dot com slash share for all of their social platforms
Speaker 1: if you like. I want to get into the Nancy
Speaker 1: Guthrie ransom updates, new notes, all of this stuff. But
Speaker 1: I can't believe I have to say this, but I
Speaker 1: think I do. I think I need to actually say
Speaker 1: this because there are a lot of quite dumb people
Speaker 1: out there. But for the folks who think that they
Speaker 1: can solve this crime using AI, I mean, I worry
Speaker 1: about the future of this country. I already worry about
Speaker 1: the future of this country. I got a lot of
Speaker 1: good reasons to worry about it. And what about I
Speaker 1: do I worry about it? No, in what way are
Speaker 1: they solving it using AI? Well, the way they're trying
Speaker 1: to solve it using AI is they're taking photos of
Speaker 1: the masked intruder on the security footage from Nancy Guthrie's
Speaker 1: house and saying at Grock, can you please remove the
Speaker 1: mask from this individual? Perfect well AI.
Speaker 4: I don't think it's a joke for all of them.
Speaker 1: See, and I think there's some people who are like
Speaker 1: you can learn a little bit about the facial structure
Speaker 1: of this individual. People trying to colorize the pictures are
Speaker 1: doing the public a disservice in thinking that they can,
Speaker 1: you know, sleuth this out and kind of crowd source
Speaker 1: the answer to this whole missing person's case.
Speaker 8: But there's a sect of people that believe everything that
Speaker 8: they hear from AI.
Speaker 4: They believe everything they hear from the internet.
Speaker 5: And they rely on AI and they talked about like
Speaker 5: it's a real person.
Speaker 1: Yeah, they're saying, take this person's mask off, show me
Speaker 1: this person without the mask, and then they show the
Speaker 1: outcome and they go, look, this is who they need
Speaker 1: to be looking for. I know it. And just you know,
Speaker 1: AI can do a lot of things.
Speaker 4: It can't really do that.
Speaker 1: I took all the videos and photos yesterday and ran
Speaker 1: them through multiple artificial intelligence, So you're trying to do
Speaker 1: it too. Well.
Speaker 4: What I wanted to see.
Speaker 1: Is I said, can you take this person in these
Speaker 1: videos and tell me what type or brand of anything
Speaker 1: they're wearing, whether it's like the jacket or the you know.
Speaker 4: The mask or the gloves.
Speaker 1: And it like went through and it was like zooming
Speaker 1: in on this, cropping this to get a good look.
Speaker 4: There's something that looks like a.
Speaker 1: Logo here, but it's not, and it couldn't tell anything,
Speaker 1: which is goes again to my thoughts of this person
Speaker 1: is at least moderately professional in what they're doing. They
Speaker 1: didn't have a bunch of logos all over themselves. They
Speaker 1: didn't have a backpack with a bunch of logos on it.
Speaker 1: They didn't have, you know, a shirt or a jacket
Speaker 1: with a bunch of logos on it they were wearing.
Speaker 1: I'm pretty sure now I've been kind of one over
Speaker 1: on this argument that the gloves are those Is it
Speaker 1: night treat or night What are the black surgical gloves
Speaker 1: called latex?
Speaker 5: Latex?
Speaker 1: No? No, no, no no, look this up like black night
Speaker 1: try there's.
Speaker 5: Some name from as a brand name or the type
Speaker 5: of material.
Speaker 1: It's a type of glove that is my black trial,
Speaker 1: the trial trial. What is that? What does that even mean?
Speaker 6: I think it's just the material or be honest, it's
Speaker 6: like a plastic I don't know. Those gloves look fat
Speaker 6: to me.
Speaker 5: Yeah, right there on his wrist, not like fluff.
Speaker 1: I think there's something under it, but I think there's
Speaker 1: a rubber glove potentially over the top of that, maybe
Speaker 1: to obscure the size of this person in another way.
Speaker 1: But it's I'm pretty convinced that it is a night
Speaker 1: trial or whatever. Black glove over the top of whatever
Speaker 1: this person is wearing, and while what the person is
Speaker 1: wearing in the backpack and all those things are super
Speaker 1: important to try to track this lunatic down.
Speaker 4: You're not gonna get AI.
Speaker 1: It doesn't.
Speaker 4: It doesn't work that way.
Speaker 10: Now.
Speaker 1: Seem like to put a bag over his head and say, AI,
Speaker 1: reveal what I look like without this bag on my head.
Speaker 1: The smartest thing in the world could do that.
Speaker 5: It doesn't.
Speaker 1: It doesn't matter. It doesn't work. You can't do that.
Speaker 1: You don't have any real info to work with.
Speaker 5: I have a ski mask at oh. I wish it
Speaker 5: would have brought it.
Speaker 1: If you put a ski mask on and then say, hey, AI,
Speaker 1: what is this person looking without a scheme mask? And
Speaker 1: it ain't gonna get you if you're covered as much
Speaker 1: as this person was. A lot of people are fighting,
Speaker 1: especially I've seen in the comments, people are fighting over
Speaker 1: whether this is even a man or a woman. For
Speaker 1: God's sake, so you know, AI is not going to
Speaker 1: fill in a lot of the void on this. But
Speaker 1: people think they can solve this with AI. Fox was
Speaker 1: talking about this.
Speaker 10: Multiple people of interest that you're interviewing and talking to,
Speaker 10: which they may have and they're just not telling the public. Again,
Speaker 10: you want the abductors to let their guard.
Speaker 5: Down so you can find Nancy.
Speaker 1: Sure, they can start.
Speaker 10: Using AI to match up the eyes. So we have
Speaker 10: that eyebrows that you could use AI to ask questions
Speaker 10: about what are the probabilities that these faces actually could
Speaker 10: be a good match, What are the probabilities that this
Speaker 10: person is wearing layers of clothing and they're not this bulky,
Speaker 10: What are the probabilities that they're taller than they seem
Speaker 10: to be, and what do they weigh? So there's a
Speaker 10: lot of things that AI can be doing today.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I disagree on this one as much as I
Speaker 1: possibly could. I think the use of AI in a
Speaker 1: case like this, it's not going to do much of anything.
Speaker 1: You're gonna get a bunch of answers good, yeah it is,
Speaker 1: And you're gonna get a bunch of answers that are
Speaker 1: entirely confident because of the large language model used to
Speaker 1: spit it out, and then you'll go, oh, yeah, no,
Speaker 1: it's just three layers and it's this one. It's this divide. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I think all of this is a fever dream where
Speaker 1: we pretend like we know more than we do what's happening.
Speaker 8: FBI didn't do this, not with AI necessarily, but go
Speaker 8: through some sort of database.
Speaker 5: I don't that compares.
Speaker 1: The FBI went to Google. That's where they got the
Speaker 1: most relevant information so far. I don't know if they've
Speaker 1: been using AI. Maybe I have like A They probably
Speaker 1: have their own AI, right, they got the Pallenteer stuff.
Speaker 1: They're putting it in a Pallenteer more than they're putting
Speaker 1: it into any kind of chat GPT crap like this.
Speaker 4: It ain't gonna.
Speaker 6: Say I think that there's an AI that solves this crime.
Speaker 6: It's not going to be something that the average X
Speaker 6: user can get for free.
Speaker 1: Right, Yeah, it's gonna be a little bit out of
Speaker 1: that pay grade, I would think. So, Yeah, that's one
Speaker 1: of the updates. People think they can solve the case
Speaker 1: using like rock and chat GPT. Good luck on that one.
Speaker 1: Here's what happened yesterday. This was the big, big, big
Speaker 1: news in the Nancy Guthrie missing person's case. There was
Speaker 1: somebody who is apprehended. There was somebody. They were like
Speaker 1: an hour plus away. So that's like keep envisioning this
Speaker 1: area in your head. This all happened near Tucson, Arizona,
Speaker 1: where Nancy Guthrie lives. Savannah Guthrie, the Today's Show host,
Speaker 1: is missing her mother, Nancy Guthrie. This is eleven days
Speaker 1: that she's been missing. Yesterday, they were going door to
Speaker 1: door in Annie Guthrie, Savannah's older sister, in her neighborhood,
Speaker 1: which is about ten minutes or four miles away from
Speaker 1: Nancy Guthrie's house where she went missing from. So they
Speaker 1: were searching going door to door with the FBI in
Speaker 1: that neighborhood. Today, they're doing the same thing going door
Speaker 1: to door effect. I think I can bring this up here,
Speaker 1: going door to door in Nancy Guthrie's neighborhood and they're
Speaker 1: asking every single person about stuff and asking if they
Speaker 1: can search in their backyards. Can we look around, you know,
Speaker 1: can we check this stuff out. They're very, very concerned
Speaker 1: with does.
Speaker 6: It ever find anything from that search of the septic tank,
Speaker 6: because the news was very transfixed on that one shot
Speaker 6: we saw of the dude stirring around the poop.
Speaker 1: God, they didn't say if they did find something in there,
Speaker 1: they did not.
Speaker 5: I feel like they would have, but that sucks for
Speaker 5: that one guy who had two.
Speaker 1: Gross I know what they did find in there, Yeah,
Speaker 1: a lot of that.
Speaker 4: And here they are wandering around this time.
Speaker 1: This is Nancy's neighborhood where she was abducted from police believe,
Speaker 1: where the security footage shows this mystery person showing up
Speaker 1: and they're looking around in the in the grass and
Speaker 1: the bushes, kind of scamming the neighborhood, going door to
Speaker 1: door and asking people questions. Do we think it's too
Speaker 1: late to get dogs on this? They had been dogs yesterday,
Speaker 1: they had them out there. They heard a scent. Only
Speaker 1: lasts so long, right, I would think you'd be right,
Speaker 1: But they definitely had. I heard dogs barking in a
Speaker 1: lot of the footage of the FBI going door to door.
Speaker 1: But then they detained. This person was detained about an
Speaker 1: hour away south of Tucson, Arizona, close to the border
Speaker 1: with Mexico, and the early report from the sheriff said
Speaker 1: earlier today, Pema County Sheriff's Department deputies detat a subject
Speaker 1: during a traffic stop south of Tucson. The suspect is
Speaker 1: currently being questioned in connection to the Nancy Guthrie investigation.
Speaker 1: Additional information will be released as it becomes available. So
Speaker 1: to be clear, this is the Pima County Sheriff's Department,
Speaker 1: not the FBI. They detained somebody during a traffic stop
Speaker 1: south of Tucson, Arizona. They said they were questioning this
Speaker 1: person and the Nancy Guthrie investigation.
Speaker 4: They also said they got.
Speaker 1: A judge issued warrant, which is no small feat. They
Speaker 1: got a warrant from a judge signed to go to
Speaker 1: this person's house, so that leads to a lot of questions.
Speaker 1: But after the cops were in there and searching, the
Speaker 1: guy's mother in law came out and talked to CNN.
Speaker 4: So let's listen to her shit.
Speaker 1: Yea, they.
Speaker 13: Gave a tip that the lady was in my house.
Speaker 13: I don't know her name.
Speaker 1: Nancy, thanks that we don't know. We don't know it
Speaker 1: at all. She said, the police got a tip that
Speaker 1: she was in my house, in my house, I imagine. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that's a rough one. And no, she has not been
Speaker 1: really connected with the case. She says. She said, you
Speaker 1: heard about it, but she didn't click on the story
Speaker 1: that's a lot of your right.
Speaker 2: She is.
Speaker 1: I don't know anything about her.
Speaker 13: They only said that they gave a tip that she
Speaker 13: was in my house, and I told them, you can
Speaker 13: go in in such a health. There's nobody there. I
Speaker 13: have nothing to hide. There's nobody in my house. And
Speaker 13: I don't know what's going on.
Speaker 1: I mean, can't you get.
Speaker 5: Any remembers that might know. No, they're investigating my son
Speaker 5: in law.
Speaker 1: He does not have nothing to do with that either. Okay,
Speaker 1: they're not investigating her, she just cleared up. They're investigating
Speaker 1: her son in law. Her son in law and her
Speaker 1: son in law and her daughter were out doing door
Speaker 1: dash deliveries when they got pulled over because of this
Speaker 1: tip I gat and they brought them back to the house.
Speaker 1: They got a warrant from a judge. They searched the house,
Speaker 1: and the family's like, look, you guys are way off.
Speaker 1: You're way off.
Speaker 5: But man, that's very particular and quite the tip to
Speaker 5: go on.
Speaker 1: I don't know much about the tip. We don't know
Speaker 1: what this said. We don't know if this was like legit.
Speaker 1: A judge did sign off, so that must mean something.
Speaker 1: But this woman is like, no idea. I was, that's
Speaker 1: kind of I have nothing to do with it either.
Speaker 13: I don't know what's going what else to say, Yeah,
Speaker 13: just invading my property. I told him they're going in
Speaker 13: and now my house, taking it out of pictures and everything.
Speaker 5: I mean, like I told him, we're not hide anything.
Speaker 5: I give him permission.
Speaker 13: If Iro'm going to search and there's nothing in my house,
Speaker 13: you won't find anything, because wouldn't.
Speaker 1: Have nothing to hide. Laws beautiful. The one that was,
Speaker 1: that's what I said out. That's my daughter's vehicle. So
Speaker 1: what is your what is your son's name? My daughter?
Speaker 1: Your daughter? Yeah, that's you live, it's her husband, it's
Speaker 1: your son in law. Yeah, that's the person in Rio Rico.
Speaker 1: Seat us up with Rio Rico distance to Mexico border,
Speaker 1: Rio Rico Arizona distance to the border in Mexico, because
Speaker 1: that's where they ended up finding this person, and they
Speaker 1: were bringing it up like, oh, maybe it was of
Speaker 1: note because they thought they would be able to shuffle
Speaker 1: her back and forth or something.
Speaker 5: Damn close. I don't know the mileage yet, but as
Speaker 5: far as the map goes.
Speaker 4: Very very close, we'll give me some mileage.
Speaker 1: If you can see land. Know what's the difference from
Speaker 1: distance from Rio Rico to the closest spot in Mexico.
Speaker 1: Weirdly enough, it's showing me the drive because it's right
Speaker 1: by the border, but the roads there brings nine hours away.
Speaker 5: Oh twelve miles.
Speaker 4: Yeah, oh my god, that's incredible.
Speaker 8: If you want to drive using Google Maps, it's going
Speaker 8: to be six hundred nineteen miles.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's incredibly close. As the crow flies, not so
Speaker 1: much as the crow does not fly.
Speaker 4: I have the guy now. It's Carlos, all right.
Speaker 1: Carlos is the guy that the sheriff said they got
Speaker 1: a tip on. They went into his house. They stopped
Speaker 1: him while he was outdoor. At they thought that the
Speaker 1: Nancy Guthrie lady was there. There were even rumors at
Speaker 1: the time that a helicopter had left the scene with
Speaker 1: an eighty four year old woman and was heading to
Speaker 1: the hospital. And everybody was celebrating online or they found
Speaker 1: Nancy Guthrie.
Speaker 4: She's alive.
Speaker 1: And this guy afterwards is now talking to the media.
Speaker 1: This was the person they were questioning, and it was
Speaker 1: a suspect here. Yeah, I was come. He went into Spanish. Okay,
Speaker 1: he said, they held me against my will. They didn't
Speaker 1: even read me my rights for two hours and I
Speaker 1: didn't expect that. In the middle of he said, let
Speaker 1: me clarify, he said, or let me let me restate.
Speaker 1: He said, my wrist is effing swollen. He's is very
Speaker 1: upset and I got to get you.
Speaker 8: Said something like, what do you expect me to do?
Speaker 8: They didn't read me my rights and a something along
Speaker 8: the lines of like they grabbed me out of know where.
Speaker 5: I didn't know what was going on.
Speaker 1: I'm trying to find one of these from a broadcast,
Speaker 1: so it'll be censored. We'll have to maybe look at
Speaker 1: more of this. But he's saying he has no idea
Speaker 1: why he was detained, he has not heard of Nancy
Speaker 1: Guthrie and helps the police find the actual culprit. I
Speaker 1: have no idea what he said at the very beginning
Speaker 1: of it, but he was saying that he has no
Speaker 1: idea who this person is or what's going on. Actually,
Speaker 1: let me beat with this. All the cameras go up
Speaker 1: to him, including a Telemundo camera, and the microphones are
Speaker 1: being pushing into his face, and there's so many people
Speaker 1: surrounding this guy. He's like pushing the cameras back. He's
Speaker 1: talking he's like, I had nothing to do with this. Now,
Speaker 1: the Telemundo microphone here in a second sneaks up into
Speaker 1: the picture, into his face.
Speaker 5: And he's like, oh, get back.
Speaker 1: What are you doing man?
Speaker 8: I mean, I'm gonna vibe from him and his mother
Speaker 8: in law that they don't know what's going on.
Speaker 1: That's what they're saying.
Speaker 5: That it's surprised. If not, they're great actors.
Speaker 1: They're saying they don't know what's happening. So this could
Speaker 1: be the sheriff's office just bumbling through things again and
Speaker 1: getting a stupid tip and coming up with nothing, a
Speaker 1: waste of time. Maybe maybe, I mean from what they're saying,
Speaker 1: they have no idea why they were looking in this case.
Speaker 1: The guy has been released, he's not charged with anything.
Speaker 1: But that was the latest twist last last night, and
Speaker 1: people thought, oh, this is it. This is it. They're
Speaker 1: solving the case. I don't know if they used any AI,
Speaker 1: but they did. This is the reason why I won't
Speaker 1: just dismiss it immediately until I see more info about it,
Speaker 1: because they did get a judicial warrant to search these
Speaker 1: people's house, so that must mean the tip that was
Speaker 1: coming in was significant enough and had enough details that
Speaker 1: a judge somewhere said, yes, this warrants additional search on
Speaker 1: these people's home and let them inside to go search on.
Speaker 1: That's what they were doing there.
Speaker 5: That public information. Can you see that the warrant.
Speaker 1: I mean it'll be public at some point in time,
Speaker 1: but I don't know public now. You just know that
Speaker 1: the judge granted one for them to be able to
Speaker 1: look through this. It could be more bumbling stuff. It
Speaker 1: could be that there was a tip here that just
Speaker 1: didn't pan out. Like everything else in this story, it's
Speaker 1: all a big mystery. All right. We got more on
Speaker 1: the way. Jury duty is on the way, a shocker
Speaker 1: in Canada. When we come back, and I meant to
Speaker 1: get it in here, we will get the details in
Speaker 1: on all your feedback that's coming in so far, that
Speaker 1: is coming up next in the news junk key. We'll
Speaker 1: get into this story happening out of Canada here in
Speaker 1: just a moment. That's grabbing a lot of headlines today.
Speaker 1: But I promise some feedback, so let's do. Let's see
Speaker 1: what you have on your mind today. A couple of
Speaker 1: things coming in. Let's start with this, by the way, Kat,
Speaker 1: buttole thank you for the Gifted Secret Show subscription. I
Speaker 1: appreciate that. Jeff emails tips to the news junki dot com.
Speaker 1: He says, look at the eyebrows in the video. They
Speaker 1: seem very well groomed. Guys in my generation don't do that.
Speaker 1: Could it be a woman? Says Jeff. There's so many
Speaker 1: people that think the person in this security footage is
Speaker 1: a woman.
Speaker 4: In the Nancy Guthrie case, we.
Speaker 5: Ad shame men with groomed eyebrows before.
Speaker 4: Come on, I don't think it's a woman.
Speaker 1: I'm just going from like the body shape and the
Speaker 1: movement in the gate on the person.
Speaker 4: It looks like a man to me pretty clearly.
Speaker 6: I did see a post that it was like, man,
Speaker 6: if they catch this guy and he or he's just
Speaker 6: watching the news or looking at Twitter and seeing the
Speaker 6: number of people who think he's a woman because of
Speaker 6: his eyebrow, I was like, this.
Speaker 1: Is going to be well. I mean, because there was another.
Speaker 4: It's like, he's gonna come out and be like, I'm a.
Speaker 1: Man who got That's how we got him to.
Speaker 4: Come out of this hole a great trick.
Speaker 6: But there was the case of the pipe bomber right
Speaker 6: that we talked about and there was some What was
Speaker 6: the outlet that came out, was it Salon or something?
Speaker 6: What was the outlet that came out and said, we
Speaker 6: definitely think it's this person.
Speaker 1: This woman.
Speaker 4: Oh that was the blaze.
Speaker 1: The blaze, Yes, the blaze, and they said the person's name.
Speaker 6: They posted her picture, all kinds.
Speaker 1: Of stuff, like we compared the footage and the walk
Speaker 1: in the gate of this person. Is this much of
Speaker 1: a match with the mystery pipe bomber in Washington, DC
Speaker 1: or something? Yeah?
Speaker 6: That was crazy, And didn't we find out that the
Speaker 6: pipe bomber in Washington, d C.
Speaker 1: The person that they took in a custody for that
Speaker 1: was a man. The person was a man that was
Speaker 1: eventually charged and arrested for that. They have not been
Speaker 1: convicted yet. I don't know how long that that case
Speaker 1: will drag out for it wasn't out.
Speaker 4: If she didn't, she's crazy. Oh immediately, you've got.
Speaker 1: A case, ma'am. Mike emails the show and he says,
Speaker 1: as much as Florida plunder and loot, FP and L
Speaker 1: can be blamed for power costs. We're talking about after
Speaker 1: the spike of winter weather, people are now getting their
Speaker 1: electric bills or power bills and seeing that some of
Speaker 1: them as expensive as a thousand dollars because using electric
Speaker 1: heat is expensive. This person says, there's a regulatory body
Speaker 1: that's supposed to keep costs down and insure quality service.
Speaker 1: It's the Florida Public Service Commission. Any rate increases must
Speaker 1: be approved by this commission. Unfortunately, a lot of times
Speaker 1: the members of this group are previous employees of FP
Speaker 1: and L deliberately so, so the rate increases are basically
Speaker 1: a rubber stamp and approved instead of denying them or
Speaker 1: negotiating for less increases. That how it always works. Now.
Speaker 6: So I heard somebody argue differently, Not to say that
Speaker 6: this person is incorrect, but I heard somebody argue that
Speaker 6: because there are regulatory bodies that keep the prices at
Speaker 6: a certain level, if we went into a free market
Speaker 6: electricity situation, it would cost more.
Speaker 1: All I know is if we were able to, like
Speaker 1: if there was people advertising Christopher Laane Power or Sabrina
Speaker 1: Power or get Shawn Power or the way, there are
Speaker 1: a lot of people who might have their own power companies.
Speaker 1: If they were all competing, you have at least some
Speaker 1: deals going on. I would think, Hi, I'm Sean white. Yeah,
Speaker 1: you might want to rename it. Mickey emails the show
Speaker 1: to tips to the news Junker dot com. Mickey says, Sean,
Speaker 1: your argument is good about how kids need to stay
Speaker 1: in school, but you don't like sports, so you don't
Speaker 1: understand how it is when your team wins.
Speaker 4: Something, you want to go and celebrate it.
Speaker 1: You want to be part of that experience because you
Speaker 1: never know if it's truly going to happen.
Speaker 4: Again, well, what's going to happen to the team?
Speaker 1: You feel like rooting and cheering for them and celebrating
Speaker 1: to help them win. I don't disagree with you, but
Speaker 1: that's a thing that adults get to do, because when
Speaker 1: you're an adult you can do things like that. We
Speaker 1: all have to go through school, and it is one
Speaker 1: of those things that you should be forced to do.
Speaker 1: You should be forced to go through schooling. You should
Speaker 1: be not Not educating your children is one of the
Speaker 1: worst forms of abuse you can impart on a child.
Speaker 1: Leaving a kid dumb for their entire lives to a
Speaker 1: place where they can never catch up is one of
Speaker 1: the worst forms of abuse. We should educate the kids
Speaker 1: first when they're adults, then they can go to the
Speaker 1: Super Bowl party, that's just taking Would you have been
Speaker 1: opposed to the idea that they say, all right, if
Speaker 1: you have a certain GPA you can have an absence
Speaker 1: for the day and go to No Why no, No.
Speaker 1: I think if students have high GPAs, they should be
Speaker 1: rewarded in all sorts of ways like that. I think
Speaker 1: having kids strive for stuff and making.
Speaker 5: It cool earning it.
Speaker 1: Okay, this might seem really really dumb, but I don't
Speaker 1: think it is. When I was a kid, there was
Speaker 1: one period in my life more than ever, that I
Speaker 1: wanted to do good in school, and it has stuck
Speaker 1: with me for my entire life. It wasn't book it Sealane.
Speaker 1: It wasn't that period of time. It was when they
Speaker 1: were picking the patrols, and to be a patrol on
Speaker 1: the school campus you had to have very good grades.
Speaker 1: If you were a patrol, then you could go to Washington,
Speaker 1: d C. On the trip that all the kids got
Speaker 1: to do, and they had other things that they were
Speaker 1: able to do too, And I wanted to be a
Speaker 1: patrol so bad. I actually, for the first time in
Speaker 1: all of schooling, which I largely found boring, I tried
Speaker 1: and I started like Okay, if I get it the
Speaker 1: grades right, and then I got my grades up and
Speaker 1: I still didn't get to be a bit did you
Speaker 1: get to be? I don't know. I took too long
Speaker 1: to bring my grades up or something, and they didn't
Speaker 1: want to do it. But it made it kind of
Speaker 1: cool to get good grades. And if there are benefits
Speaker 1: along with it, including extra days off, I'm totally fine
Speaker 1: with that those kids. If you look at the kids
Speaker 1: in school who have the best GPAs in the best grades,
Speaker 1: I'm sorry if this hurts your feelings, but it's just true.
Speaker 1: They are less likely to cause societal problems. They're less
Speaker 1: likely to go to prison, They're less likely to kill you,
Speaker 1: they're less likely to give your grand grandma a ransom letter,
Speaker 1: you know what I mean. They are less likely to
Speaker 1: do all of this stuff. So I want the kids
Speaker 1: striving for that. I want them to be smart. It's everything.
Speaker 1: Amber says. I turned the light on at night when
Speaker 1: I'm going to the bathroom. Ever since I found a
Speaker 1: snake in my bathroom. Oh, talking about this earlier, the
Speaker 1: snake I saw in broad daylight, but my nighttime brain
Speaker 1: always thinks there's another one. Eeke, she says, many people
Speaker 1: chiming in on this. Somebody says, six dollars, get this,
Speaker 1: it's a toilet night light.
Speaker 4: It'll change the.
Speaker 1: Game for you. What I have will This is not
Speaker 1: a disco ball version. It's just like some sort of
Speaker 1: like this one's I got different color lights. I guess
Speaker 1: that you could change and when you walk into the
Speaker 1: bathroom lights up.
Speaker 6: I think, if we're going this route, we need to
Speaker 6: find like a light that filters out the blue light,
Speaker 6: you know, like they do for like night moode on
Speaker 6: your phone. Yeah, what is the blue light to So
Speaker 6: have you ever you never used night mode on your phone? No,
Speaker 6: if you go into like your brightness settings, you have
Speaker 6: to make this green brighter to night shift is what
Speaker 6: it's called. A night shift takes all like a lot
Speaker 6: of the blue spectrum off of your screen. And it's
Speaker 6: because they say that that blue spectrum keeps you awake.
Speaker 6: And so like when I get into bed, I turn
Speaker 6: on my shift. You know, everything gets a little yellower
Speaker 6: on the phone. And then I play a couple rounds
Speaker 6: of Soldier and half the time the last round I
Speaker 6: just you.
Speaker 5: Know, you don't get to see the cards.
Speaker 1: Solitaire is when he cries while he's playing it. He's
Speaker 1: very upset, isn't the shuffling of the cards is for him?
Speaker 1: I think that's cool, but does that actually work? Is it? Like?
Speaker 6: I mean, there's enough. I mean they have it as
Speaker 6: a feature on the phone, so I think enough research
Speaker 6: has been put into it that this blue light thing
Speaker 6: is for real. So I would want, you know, if
Speaker 6: that's something that that kind of bothers you, or you're
Speaker 6: worried about waking up too much, I would want a
Speaker 6: light that has those pieces of the spectrum filtered out.
Speaker 4: Tips of the news Jokie dot com.
Speaker 1: This is Larson saying, what up Sean pretty interesting to
Speaker 1: see this image. Color Eyes have a fantastic show and
Speaker 1: it's the person going to Nancy Guthrie's door.
Speaker 4: Color Eyes. This is part of the problem though.
Speaker 1: They turned this into like a brown leather glove, and
Speaker 1: I definitely do not think that's the color that it is.
Speaker 6: Okay, but I was all guessing. I will say it
Speaker 6: is a lot of guessing. And that's what I don't
Speaker 6: like about the colorized thing. I think the colorizing is
Speaker 6: by and large, even if you research colorizing, like the
Speaker 6: way they do it with AI is kind of based
Speaker 6: on what it thinks. You know, the colors are supposed
Speaker 6: to be. The way they did it historically was they
Speaker 6: would you know, if the colorize a black and white
Speaker 6: film or old war footage, they would look up and
Speaker 6: do research on and go to museums and just find
Speaker 6: the colors of the things that were in the films.
Speaker 6: You know, if you have an old World War One
Speaker 6: movie that you want to colorize, you go to museums
Speaker 6: and you look at old World War One uniforms. There's
Speaker 6: not some magic bars that just yes it is, and
Speaker 6: it's a lot of painstaking work. It's not just some
Speaker 6: magic box the day.
Speaker 5: Don't you think that information would be in the the code?
Speaker 8: Is there not something with that technology that is putting
Speaker 8: it into its night mode or ir that could you
Speaker 8: give you any information of color?
Speaker 1: But I think what Ceilia's saying is historically you can
Speaker 1: do some stuff. If there was a particular type of
Speaker 1: fighter plane that was used in a war, you can
Speaker 1: look at that fighter plane and see what colors it was,
Speaker 1: and you'll know what kind of paint they used on
Speaker 1: it and stuff. Then you know that was the color
Speaker 1: it was supposed to be in this painting but because
Speaker 1: we don't know what this person was wearing and it
Speaker 1: was all black and white, other than AI going well,
Speaker 1: that's grass and the grass should be green. These are
Speaker 1: educated guesses. Yeah, I think sometimes you're going to end
Speaker 1: up in a worse spot than you were in.
Speaker 6: I wonder, I just had a whole, like big thing
Speaker 6: of plants in my backyard that died during the freeze.
Speaker 6: But they were dark purple, you know, and then it
Speaker 6: was they were very low to the ground, and we
Speaker 6: always I don't know if it.
Speaker 1: Was I don't know if it was or something like that.
Speaker 5: Come on.
Speaker 6: But I wonder, like if I would have taken a
Speaker 6: black and white photo of them and ran them through
Speaker 6: some AI, would I get different results? Or is the
Speaker 6: AI just identifying the plant in black and white and
Speaker 6: goes that's a wondering Jew.
Speaker 1: Those Jews are purple.
Speaker 5: I'm going to bring in my ski mask tomorrow. Let's
Speaker 5: take protest.
Speaker 1: Try it. Do bring your scheme maskt see you if
Speaker 1: it gets anywhere close to you, Like, do you have
Speaker 1: one that hides as much as the one that the
Speaker 1: gut three person used?
Speaker 5: Yeah, it just shows my eyes. You know, it'll work well.
Speaker 6: Ski mask, you know, a sche mask is not going
Speaker 6: to show a whole lot of contour just because of
Speaker 6: the virtue of what it's supposed to do for you
Speaker 6: that needs to be prodded.
Speaker 1: Bring it in tomorrow. We'll run that through the paces
Speaker 1: and see what we can come up with. All right,
Speaker 1: quick break. When we come back, somebody is asking about
Speaker 1: the crazy story about the airspace all flights and stuff
Speaker 1: being shut down over l Paso.
Speaker 4: The reason why it's kind.
Speaker 1: Of unbelievable and a little, actually a lot embarrassing if
Speaker 1: and I'll go into that story, we'll finally get to
Speaker 1: the shooting in Canada in jury duty, and that is
Speaker 1: coming up next on the News Junkie. More of your
Speaker 1: feedback incoming, of course. But I said I would address
Speaker 1: this to airport shutdown thing, which is crazy and honestly,
Speaker 1: if this report is true, kind of embarrassing. I'm just
Speaker 1: gonna be real with you. But let's see, let's dive
Speaker 1: in right now, let's do jury duty.
Speaker 11: Court is now in session, so put your phone down
Speaker 11: and pay attention before we call the bailiff over to
Speaker 11: whip your ass. You're knowing jury duty with the News Junkie.
Speaker 1: Jury Duty brought to you by the one the only
Speaker 1: mode the wit law firm. Injured on the go, just
Speaker 1: call MO eight hundred CALLMO eight hundred Calmo, or go
Speaker 1: to justcallmo dot com. Accident, you pick up the phone,
Speaker 1: you dial MO, and you go against the insurance companies
Speaker 1: on the other end of That is the success you've
Speaker 1: been looking for to be, you know, beating back the
Speaker 1: insurance companies that take your money every single day, but
Speaker 1: then get real stingy after you're injured in an accident.
Speaker 1: You deserve better. Eight hundred CALLMO, eight hundred CALLMO. We'll
Speaker 1: go to escalmo dot com. Okay, a couple of things. First,
Speaker 1: there was an airport shut down and it was El Paso,
Speaker 1: I believe in the area of L Paso. The airport
Speaker 1: was shut down and they said it was going to
Speaker 1: be shut down for ten days. I think I have
Speaker 1: some of the air traffic when they were talking about
Speaker 1: it in L Paso, Texas. All flights were grounded, including
Speaker 1: commercial front flights, cargo flights, general aviation, no exemptions for metavacs.
Speaker 1: That's crazy. Okay, they closed the airspace for ten days
Speaker 1: and they reversed this. But I'll explain what happened. The
Speaker 1: airport and pilots were given little to no notice, and
Speaker 1: it's unclear exactly what's being planned. Air traffic control recordings
Speaker 1: show how caught off guard pilots and controllers were. Let's
Speaker 1: listen in These are the pilots being told that the
Speaker 1: El Paso, Texas air was being shut down for like
Speaker 1: ten days. Now, are you guys.
Speaker 2: Supposed to play out?
Speaker 1: I'm sorry? What was that?
Speaker 2: So software? Now, are you guys departing again tonight or
Speaker 2: is this final flighting of the hotel Veder? Just be advised.
Speaker 2: I guess there's a TFR going into effect. TFR just
Speaker 2: passed it on to the Southwest and everybody else at
Speaker 2: zero six thirty for the next ten days, we're we're
Speaker 2: stopped all groundstop.
Speaker 1: Okay, ground stop zero six thirty for how long?
Speaker 2: Ten days?
Speaker 1: Ten days?
Speaker 10: There?
Speaker 2: Apparently we just got informed about thirty minutes to an
Speaker 2: hour ago.
Speaker 1: So for ten days, you guys are not open.
Speaker 8: It's strange that they they shut it down out of
Speaker 8: nowhere and then ten days already stamped onto.
Speaker 4: Yeah, they shut it down.
Speaker 1: Actually, I got into the reason why this happened, and
Speaker 1: I'll give you the info just second here. But the
Speaker 1: guy's like dumbfounded. You can hear it, right, and his voice.
Speaker 8: He's like, mind you're taking off at the same time
Speaker 8: he's landed.
Speaker 1: He just landed. He said he's going to going to
Speaker 1: the hotel. But now he from this information, is like, well,
Speaker 1: I guess I'm stuck in El Paso for a while.
Speaker 1: The airport's closed for ten days, that's what they're saying.
Speaker 2: Apparently we just got informed about thirty minutes to an
Speaker 2: hour ago.
Speaker 1: So for ten days, you guys are not open.
Speaker 2: Well, mae, we'll be here, but no air traffic.
Speaker 1: Okay, parmaslogic heavy.
Speaker 2: It just as a security alert tfar is going to
Speaker 2: effect that zero six thirty is all we're aware of. Yeah,
Speaker 2: it just goes into effect that there's six thirty two
Speaker 2: the twenty first, a zero six.
Speaker 1: Thirty twenty first. Ten days, they were shunting out all
Speaker 1: the air traffic, including the like metavacs, people who needed
Speaker 1: emergency transportation to hospitals and stuff that seems rare at
Speaker 1: that point. Oh yeah, yeah. So anyways, so they the
Speaker 1: government says, the FED say, we're doing this because the
Speaker 1: cartels are launching drones. The cartels are launching drones. And
Speaker 1: they're they're flying them over El Paso. And then the
Speaker 1: FED said that they use This is I'm gonna sound crazy,
Speaker 1: this is true. The FED said, we used lasers to
Speaker 1: blast the drones out of the sky and we destroyed
Speaker 1: the cartel drones that were the reason we shut down
Speaker 1: all the air traffic for ten days at this airport.
Speaker 1: They were hopefully damn sure there were cartel drones. Hang on,
Speaker 1: hang tight here, somebody. They used a massive laser. They
Speaker 1: blew up these these cartel drones that they were worried about.
Speaker 1: And they had shut the airport down for ten days.
Speaker 1: Then just like they shut it down, they said, never mind,
Speaker 1: we're opening the airport back up. L Passo Airport is
Speaker 1: back open. We're good to go. Now. This story from
Speaker 1: CBS News, this is embarrassing if true. I don't know
Speaker 1: if this is fully confirmed, but this is what they said.
Speaker 1: The unexpected but brief airspace closure in the Texas border
Speaker 1: city of El Paso stemmed from disagreements between the Federal
Speaker 1: Aviation Administration and Pentagon officials over drone related tests. Multiple
Speaker 1: sources close to the matter told CBS the Pentagon had
Speaker 1: undertaken extensive planning on the use of military technology near
Speaker 1: Fort Bliss, a military base that abuts the El Paso
Speaker 1: International Airport. They were practicing taking down drones. Two sources
Speaker 1: identified the technology as a high energy laser cool Meetings
Speaker 1: were scheduled over the safety impacts, but Pentagon officials wanted
Speaker 1: to test the technology sooner, and they said the US
Speaker 1: Code one thirty I requirements governed the protection of certain
Speaker 1: facilities from unmanned aircraft, and they said that they had
Speaker 1: been met. FAA Administrator Brian Bedford on Tuesday night decided
Speaker 1: to close the airspace without alerting the White House, Pentagon,
Speaker 1: or Homeland Security. So the guy in charge of the
Speaker 1: FA FAA said, we're shutting this down without talking to
Speaker 1: the White House, the Pentagon, or Homeland Security. He said,
Speaker 1: we're shutting it down for ten days. Imagine that's what
Speaker 1: he did. The guy who's the head of the FAA,
Speaker 1: he closed it down. Bedford told officials the airspace restrictions
Speaker 1: would be in place to ensure safety until issues with
Speaker 1: the Department of War could be resolved. So the FAA
Speaker 1: is fighting with the Pentagon. The Pentagon goes, we need
Speaker 1: to test these things. The FAA goes, you can test
Speaker 1: those things. The Pentagon goes, yes, we can test these things.
Speaker 1: The FAA goes, okay, we're shutting down this entire airport
Speaker 1: for ten days and blaming the cartail, and well that
Speaker 1: I'll get to that part. I know this is a
Speaker 1: lot to digest here, but the FAA has declined to
Speaker 1: comment on this. The critical bulletin issued to pilots and
Speaker 1: airlines not the fly below eighteen thousand feet was initially
Speaker 1: set for ten days, a duration for a full grounding
Speaker 1: not used since the nine to eleven terror attacks.
Speaker 4: So the FAA did.
Speaker 1: Not like what the Pentagon was doing, so they went
Speaker 1: against the White House and the Pentagon and shut this
Speaker 1: airport down and then they solve this thing. Here's what
Speaker 1: started all of this. The Mexican cartels have been running
Speaker 1: drones on the border lately, sources said, and the US
Speaker 1: military has been blasting them out.
Speaker 4: Of the sky with these lasers that they have.
Speaker 1: Now one of the things that they thought was a
Speaker 1: drone that they blasted with one of these military lasers,
Speaker 1: they said was a party balloon that had somehow floated
Speaker 1: away and got up to the altitude that they thought
Speaker 1: it was a drone. They can't tell if they took
Speaker 1: the mega laser and pointed it directly at the target
Speaker 1: and blasted this party balloon completely and totally into smithereens
Speaker 1: I did it was.
Speaker 6: A party balloon.
Speaker 1: If it was in Smiths, that must have recovered something.
Speaker 1: That's an excellent question. Actually they said they use Can
Speaker 1: we ask President Trump what the name of the mega
Speaker 1: laser is because I like when he named stuff like
Speaker 1: the discombobulator, the discombobulator, which definitely I mean is that
Speaker 1: that couldn't have been true? Right? Uh? Yeah? This this
Speaker 1: says you with US Military's Fox News. US military shutdown
Speaker 1: party balloon near l Passo after drone's suspicion. The misidentification
Speaker 1: led to the shutdown of airspace around here. The Pentagon
Speaker 1: has been testing out new counter drone technology. They shot
Speaker 1: down what they thought was a foreign drone, but one
Speaker 1: was identified as a balloon my birthday. It's crazy that
Speaker 1: they have these lasers to begin with, Just absolutely crazy.
Speaker 5: Those lasers can't identify a drone versus balloon. If we
Speaker 5: need to go back to the drawing board.
Speaker 1: We this is not new. We had weather balloons flying
Speaker 1: over the United States of America. Can we miss when
Speaker 1: we were we were shooting them down with like Tomahawk
Speaker 1: missiles at some point in time, right, true.
Speaker 4: So yeah, I mean that's interesting.
Speaker 1: That seems strange, but that's I guess what happened in
Speaker 1: the FAA leader, in a hasty move to go against
Speaker 1: the White House in the War Department, said let's just
Speaker 1: shut this whole thing down for ten days.
Speaker 4: Now it's back up here.
Speaker 5: Tagon actually just released what the name of it was.
Speaker 8: What's technology is an essence a sophisticated keep beam, which
Speaker 8: we called a laser.
Speaker 4: Just the laser, Just the laser.
Speaker 1: I would have thought they had something more super laser.
Speaker 1: Doctor Evil would have come up with a discombobulator though
Speaker 1: in his lexicon. All right, I got to get to
Speaker 1: the Canada story. I haven't gone to this yet. It's
Speaker 1: not like it's fun or anything, but it is a
Speaker 1: big story today about the shooting in Canada.
Speaker 4: So we'll talk about that just a bit.
Speaker 1: Then a new technology that they analyzed the.
Speaker 4: Super Bowl with.
Speaker 1: I've never heard this before, but we'll investigate to see
Speaker 1: what the hell was going on here, and more updates
Speaker 1: along the way on all the stories we've been following
Speaker 1: closely that's coming up in the final hour the show
Speaker 1: The Power Hours coming up next on the News Junkie
Speaker 1: before we move any further, I teased this yesterday and
Speaker 1: wasn't able to circle back and get to the details.
Speaker 1: But we had the breaking news not a long ago,
Speaker 1: a little over a week ago on the show, that
Speaker 1: Catherine O'Hara had died, the actress from Home Alone and
Speaker 1: Best in Show and Ship's Creek and Ima. You could
Speaker 1: go on for a while on the legendary stuff that
Speaker 1: Catherine O'Hara did. I saw some tributes that really I
Speaker 1: absolutely loved. One of the events. There was a dog
Speaker 1: competition that has happened since that sins right or one
Speaker 1: of them. Yeah, it was one of the biggest ones,
Speaker 1: and it was like a tribute to Catherine O'Hara for
Speaker 1: you know, the type of dog that she had in
Speaker 1: the in the movie Best in Show.
Speaker 5: Movie twice already since you're passing.
Speaker 4: She's she was so great in that.
Speaker 1: That is that is a very very much like as
Speaker 1: close to a perfect movie as you can get. Home
Speaker 1: Alone is as close to a perfect movie as you
Speaker 1: can get. Uh. The idea that any one human being
Speaker 1: was in two of those is unbelievable to me. There
Speaker 1: are a lot of great movies out there. I mean,
Speaker 1: there are a lot of great movies, but only very
Speaker 1: few actors and actresses are in legendary movies that stand
Speaker 1: the test of time, and so few of them aren't
Speaker 1: as many as Katherin Rhara was.
Speaker 6: We rewatched a lot of Ship's Creek, you know, the
Speaker 6: weekend that we found out she passed, and just we're
Speaker 6: still like out loud laughing.
Speaker 1: That's so good at some of the stuff.
Speaker 5: She's been doing this for years.
Speaker 8: Like there was footage coming out of STV out.
Speaker 1: Of Canada Second City Television.
Speaker 5: And it was her, and now it's gone.
Speaker 8: Eugene Levy yep, from so long ago, that's how And
Speaker 8: I couldn't find even if I tried very hard.
Speaker 5: One bad thing that was said about Catherine are.
Speaker 1: Yeah, the best people at doing this sort of stuff
Speaker 1: are the people who surge in the world of improv,
Speaker 1: and I mean really understand improv. The groundling, Second City,
Speaker 1: all of these different groups that have popped up over
Speaker 1: the years are home to some of the most talented
Speaker 1: people and Catherine A. Heron was one of them. And
Speaker 1: now they released her cause of death. They said, the
Speaker 1: home alone star died from a pulmonary embolism, with cancer
Speaker 1: as the underlying cause. A Los Angeles County death certificate
Speaker 1: issued on Monday lists the pulmonary embolism, which occurs when
Speaker 1: a blood clot blocks an artery in the lungs, as
Speaker 1: the immediate cause of her death. A pulmonary embolism is
Speaker 1: a blood clot that blocks and stops blood flow to
Speaker 1: an artery in the lungs, and in most cases the
Speaker 1: blood clot starts in a deep vein in the leg
Speaker 1: and travels to the lung. Rarely, the clot forms in
Speaker 1: a vein and another part of the body. When a
Speaker 1: blood clot forms in one or more of the deep
Speaker 1: veins in the body, it's called deep vein thrombosis, which
Speaker 1: you might have heard of before. This is why if
Speaker 1: your feet get red ooh boy, if you have if
Speaker 1: you take your shoes off and your feet are like
Speaker 1: perma red, go to the doctor immediately. That's one of
Speaker 1: those signs that they tell you go to the doctor immediately,
Speaker 1: because if you have any kind of blood clotting in
Speaker 1: your legs, it could be something big like this, and that's.
Speaker 8: Some symptoms like a heart attack or they could confused
Speaker 8: for like heartburn.
Speaker 5: Yeah, even more terrifying.
Speaker 1: Yeah, so it's you know, it's scary, and she she
Speaker 1: seems fine. She seen before that leave despite her getting
Speaker 1: up there a little in age like she was totally
Speaker 1: doing all right. But there you go. All right, let's
Speaker 1: see what else do we have here. I'll get in
Speaker 1: some more feedback in a moment. Oh, I wanted to
Speaker 1: talk about the shooting in Canada, which there's a couple
Speaker 1: of weird things about this. One is the clip that's
Speaker 1: going around with the local law enforcement in British Columbia
Speaker 1: referring to the shooter as a gun person, which I've
Speaker 1: not heard before, although it's a very short clip, so
Speaker 1: maybe there's more context afterwards.
Speaker 4: The clip that's going viral is seven seconds.
Speaker 1: But here's the cop the deceased gun person, okay, and
Speaker 1: then he said that includes the deceased gun person. That
Speaker 1: includes the deceased gun person, which is like strange language
Speaker 1: to use in this The person has been also a strange.
Speaker 6: I guess, just maybe for us because we don't see
Speaker 6: a lot of the these kind of videos from Canada. Yeah,
Speaker 6: him looking like he's sitting on a throne.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's it's not a throne. It's like a flag
Speaker 1: behind it. But he just looks like kind of it's
Speaker 1: very Game of Thrones. It looks like Game of Thrones
Speaker 1: Canada edition with maple leaves on the side.
Speaker 5: Person like if his chair was a little bit higher,
Speaker 5: the crowd would be honest.
Speaker 1: Yes, no, no, this this was pretty wild.
Speaker 4: Here's some of the details.
Speaker 1: High school students barricaded in classroom doors or barricade classroom
Speaker 1: doors with tables and chairs for at least two hours
Speaker 1: while a shooter just described as a gun person in
Speaker 1: address left nine dead and twenty five injured during Canada's
Speaker 1: deadliest school shooting in nearly forty years. Darien Quiss, a
Speaker 1: twelfth grader, was in his mechanics class Tuesday afternoon when
Speaker 1: tumblr Ridge Secondary School students were plunged into lockdown for
Speaker 1: a while at ending anything was going on. I thought
Speaker 1: it was maybe just a secure and hold, but we
Speaker 1: knew something had gone wrong. I think they said the
Speaker 1: numbers of dead were around like nine or ten people,
Speaker 1: twenty five injured. The shooter has been identified. I'm not
Speaker 1: going to say their name. It's a biological mail, but
Speaker 1: a transgender individual that targeted this school in Canada and
Speaker 1: shot this place up. That makes I think there's a
Speaker 1: lot of things that are on the fringes of this.
Speaker 1: But that would be like the third transgender school shooter
Speaker 1: in North America. And is that why he's a gun person?
Speaker 4: Possibly?
Speaker 1: I don't know. I don't know. I know that they've
Speaker 1: now identified the shooter and I don't want to spread
Speaker 1: the name out there because I think this is like
Speaker 1: one of the worst things we do as a society.
Speaker 4: But that was in response to a question.
Speaker 1: It may be that it's a Canadian thing and there
Speaker 1: they don't say gunmen.
Speaker 4: There's something let's do that.
Speaker 1: Let's say, let's take the trans trans thing out of it,
Speaker 1: say it was a biologically female shooter. Would we say
Speaker 1: gun women? No? They really the article the early articles
Speaker 1: just literally said woman. I said a woman entered the
Speaker 1: school and started a woman in a dress.
Speaker 4: It said in a lot of these articles.
Speaker 1: You can look them up if you want to.
Speaker 8: But the art how many years since they had something
Speaker 8: got violent habit in Canada?
Speaker 1: You know, the worst than forty years in Canada? They
Speaker 1: said they are investigating everything that happened here and trying
Speaker 1: to figure out where it went wrong. I also had
Speaker 1: some footage allegedly of the shooter. I don't I think
Speaker 1: this is accurate. It's hard to say. But the person
Speaker 1: who's at some sort of shooting range with a weapon
Speaker 1: here that they're identifying as the shooter is wearing a shirt.
Speaker 1: I'll have to see if this is actually connected or not.
Speaker 1: But this is going viral now in connection with the story.
Speaker 1: The shirt and it's like Massacre Tour. I think it
Speaker 1: says World Massacre Tour, and I think it's like a
Speaker 1: I've seen these before. I think I might be wrong
Speaker 1: about this. I think they're anti gun shirts. I think
Speaker 1: they're anti gun shirts that people wear for the AK
Speaker 1: forty seven and it's like the World Massacre Tour. Hey,
Speaker 1: this gun has killed people in the Gulf War, Afghanistan
Speaker 1: and Gola Lao and and on and on, and then
Speaker 1: I think sometimes people might wear it like ironically or
Speaker 1: something that yeah, there's a gun on the person's shirt
Speaker 1: and it says World Massacre Tour that is alleged to
Speaker 1: be related to the same person.
Speaker 6: Either reason to wear it is a weird one to
Speaker 6: be at a shooting range shooting yeaheah, Yeah, if you're
Speaker 6: wearing it in your anti gun and you're at a
Speaker 6: shooting range. Questions if you're wearing it and your pro
Speaker 6: gun also, questions may celebrating the massacre.
Speaker 1: Yeah, maybe maybe the most questions if you're pro gun
Speaker 1: and wearing it. But so many times you'll find the
Speaker 1: overlap of mental illness and these people who just get
Speaker 1: obsessed with all these other shooting stories in the past
Speaker 1: that fuels this weird sect of humanity that most of
Speaker 1: us want to ignore or pretend it is not there.
Speaker 1: There are people, and and so often I encounter the
Speaker 1: most normal reaction in the world, which is when I
Speaker 1: get from Courtney constantly and should be like, I just
Speaker 1: don't understand why anybody would do that. I don't understand
Speaker 1: why a person would do that. And I get it,
Speaker 1: you know, I get it. But there are a lot
Speaker 1: of people who just are filled with hate and they
Speaker 1: are out there to cause chaos, and they're mentally ill individuals,
Speaker 1: and they just don't view the world through the same
Speaker 1: lens that you or I do, or like.
Speaker 8: We do, Like there's just it's no second breath, no
Speaker 8: second guess at all. I don't think that even when
Speaker 8: it's happening. It's really being registered. The damage that it
Speaker 8: is being done lifetime damage.
Speaker 1: But I think a lot of times the people who
Speaker 1: are doing it do recognize that, but they they don't care.
Speaker 1: They don't They literally hate people, they hate everyone. You know,
Speaker 1: the the tour shirt ends and to be continued.
Speaker 5: What companies an't that?
Speaker 1: Huh? Yeah, that's weird.
Speaker 6: All the ones I could see you say vintage, like,
Speaker 6: this is a vintage shirt. What's vintage about it?
Speaker 1: Yeah? Yeah, I mean it's very disturbing. So that was
Speaker 1: the latest of these types of stories. This one in Canada.
Speaker 1: This one another transgender people. There was two of them.
Speaker 1: One was in Nashville and the other one might have
Speaker 1: been in Minnesota, but don't quote me on that. I
Speaker 1: think both of those were transgender shooters who targeted religious schools.
Speaker 1: And then this person is also now in the mix
Speaker 1: of those folks from the last couple of years alone.
Speaker 1: Transgender people, of course, take up a very small, small,
Speaker 1: small percentage of the public, so to see them involved
Speaker 1: in mass shootings and numbers where you start to take
Speaker 1: notice is a little bit strange. This is the other
Speaker 1: thing I was talking about. Let's see find out what
Speaker 1: Samba TV actually is, and how they're getting this data
Speaker 1: because this has been going viral in the wake of
Speaker 1: the Super Bowl and all that, and Samba TV not
Speaker 1: not like the analytics company. But how do they get
Speaker 1: their data is what I'm interested in. How did they
Speaker 1: get there? Because Samba TV says minute by minute viewership
Speaker 1: data from the Super Bowl Super Bowl sixty reveals interesting
Speaker 1: audience behavior as the Seattle Seahawks beat the New England
Speaker 1: Patriots in a dominating manner, contributing to what people described
Speaker 1: as an unexciting game. Yeah, I think you could say
Speaker 1: that was boring was the word I heard and I
Speaker 1: used all they said. Overall viewership peaked at the end
Speaker 1: of the second quarter, with many fans probably hoping the
Speaker 1: game would eventually get more competitive halftime hesitation, they said,
Speaker 1: viewership dipped to eighty eight percent when Bad Bunny took
Speaker 1: the stage, with some viewers stepping away during the performance.
Speaker 1: Some of those going to the turning points thing, some
Speaker 1: of them going to the bathroom. Right, that's that's actually
Speaker 1: one of the biggest lies. One of the big draws
Speaker 1: during halftime is actually go to the bathroom.
Speaker 6: Okay, well, real quick, though, you don't turn the TV
Speaker 6: off to go to the bathroom.
Speaker 1: No, but I don't. How are they That's what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: How are they getting their data?
Speaker 5: I think they're going to send it to you.
Speaker 1: Okay, give me a second, says Tail of two City.
Speaker 1: Seattle viewership searched to ninety six percent at the end
Speaker 1: of the third quarter. So in Seattle, they're like, they're excited,
Speaker 1: they're tuning. In Boston peaked during the first half, declining
Speaker 1: as the Patriots fell behind, Viewers tune in for the drama,
Speaker 1: which this was your Super Bowl with somewhat lacking fans
Speaker 1: stay viewing and rooting for their team.
Speaker 4: So yeah, I mean that all kind of makes sense.
Speaker 1: You got your Luki lose and they showed the official
Speaker 1: start of the game. Audience peaked right before halftime, and then,
Speaker 1: according to their data, dropped a bit during halftime and
Speaker 1: then went back up in the third quarter and then
Speaker 1: off a cliff in the fourth quarter, down to like
Speaker 1: fifty percent audience by the time the game was over,
Speaker 1: and that was it. Uh, let me see, hang on, Seilant,
Speaker 1: let me just see. Okay, this is a How is
Speaker 1: TV viewership measured? According to Samba, It says omni screen
Speaker 1: holistic measurement. That sounds interesting.
Speaker 6: Holistic doesn't make it sound like.
Speaker 1: Just look at your run See how is TV viewership
Speaker 1: measured first party data? Sambas uses ACR only data for
Speaker 1: measurement panels. They capture all content such as streaming. Unlike
Speaker 1: set top box data powered panels, they power omnie screen management.
Speaker 1: I solt of know, like, what are they doing? Is
Speaker 1: this embedded into televisions?
Speaker 6: I think you can either voluntarily put it on your
Speaker 6: television or or maybe it's embedded into some of them.
Speaker 6: Maybe they do have a set top box ACRS Automated
Speaker 6: Content recognition. It identifies content including shows, movies, and ads
Speaker 6: viewed on smart TVs and connect the devices by capturing
Speaker 6: fingerprints of content in real time.
Speaker 1: And a lot of your.
Speaker 6: Smart TVs that's one of the things that you kind
Speaker 6: of give up by getting a cheap price on the
Speaker 6: smart TV, like a lot. I watched it watched a
Speaker 6: video recently where somebody was showing how to opt out
Speaker 6: of everything on your Google embedded television, your Google TV,
Speaker 6: So it's not sending like fingerprints back to UH to
Speaker 6: track your stuff.
Speaker 1: And maybe match you up with some advertising data. Something
Speaker 1: like that. So so you're you're talking about how if
Speaker 1: you get a TV, Like let's say you go and
Speaker 1: the cheapest Amazon TV you find is a big one,
Speaker 1: but it's like a couple hundred bucks. People don't realize,
Speaker 1: but it's got this software. Sometimes this company is paying
Speaker 1: a little bit per TV.
Speaker 6: Right, And it's it's not just the software embedded in
Speaker 6: the TV that that has the data. Like if you think, well,
Speaker 6: that's fine, I just won't use the software in the TV.
Speaker 6: I'll use my own thing. I have a DVD player.
Speaker 6: It says they also gather this was the video that
Speaker 6: I watched. This has nothing to do with this samba thing.
Speaker 6: The guy said that they also like gather these fingerprints
Speaker 6: from your Hdmi inputs.
Speaker 5: So if you throw it, can't get away from it.
Speaker 6: You're throwing you, me and Dupree, And you know that
Speaker 6: they're going to know that too.
Speaker 8: I know whatever is in your Wi Fi imagine because
Speaker 8: we talked about algorithms not too long ago, where we
Speaker 8: you and Courtney were talking about something and all of
Speaker 8: a sudden what Courtney said popped up on your phone
Speaker 8: and realized that they're using the Wi Fi data. If
Speaker 8: you give you my smart TV is a fire TV,
Speaker 8: which it was a great price.
Speaker 5: It is big TV.
Speaker 8: It has Alexa on it, and it is constantly listening.
Speaker 8: Yeah right, and I don't know where else to go.
Speaker 8: All my data has gone at third parties, even if
Speaker 8: I opt out forever.
Speaker 1: If you have a cheap TV like and say you
Speaker 1: have YouTube TV on that, well, you're probably getting measured
Speaker 1: by YouTube TV and the partner company that made your
Speaker 1: TV so cheap. And by the way, all of these
Speaker 1: are probably better than the traditional way of doing ratings.
Speaker 1: They're all directly measured in a way that it's on
Speaker 1: X amount of televisions and they're watching what this person
Speaker 1: is doing instead of old fashioned diary filling out or
Speaker 1: a very very very limited amount of households having something
Speaker 1: that legitimately tracks what they're watching.
Speaker 5: Dear Diary, Cilian wanted to watch it? You pree and
Speaker 5: me again?
Speaker 1: Row seven different kinds of smoke, Classic classic Owen Wilson banger.
Speaker 4: He rarely misses quick break.
Speaker 1: When we come back, we'll dive into Oh, I want
Speaker 1: to do this rundown I had on this weird politician.
Speaker 1: There's this guy who's starting to get more and more
Speaker 1: attention and he's got some Zaney conspiracy theories. So I'll
Speaker 1: play the audio for you of this dude and get
Speaker 1: him on your radar. That's coming up next on the
Speaker 1: News Junkie.
Speaker 4: More dispatches here in.
Speaker 1: Just a moment. Tips at the news Junkie dot comms.
Speaker 1: How you email the show. Let me see if I
Speaker 1: miss out on anything here. Oh, there is somebody talking
Speaker 1: about the high power bills. Chris says, I just got
Speaker 1: my Duke Energy bill yesterday. My bill was not any
Speaker 1: higher than it usually is in the summer.
Speaker 2: Nice.
Speaker 1: My system is about sixteen years old, he says. My
Speaker 1: central air is a heat pump system, which is more
Speaker 1: efficient than running the heat strips which are inside your
Speaker 1: air handler. I'm guessing people with crazy high electric bills
Speaker 1: aren't running a heat pump system, or their thermostat isn't
Speaker 1: configured correctly and runs the backup strips when the heat
Speaker 1: pump is running. He said. Duke Energy is also lowering
Speaker 1: their rates in March, according to the insert that was
Speaker 1: included with my bill. Look at them giving you good info,
Speaker 1: Chris must be nice. I don't know if I have
Speaker 1: a pump or the strips. I think I have a pump.
Speaker 4: You got a brand new one that was the old house.
Speaker 1: Oh that's right, put the brand new one in and
Speaker 1: then bolted. Geez, here's square Slinger with a video dispatch
Speaker 1: blaming the high power bills on these greedy ol AI
Speaker 1: companies and their server farms junkies.
Speaker 14: You guys were talking about the power grid. I've read
Speaker 14: quite a lot of stories about the server farm they're
Speaker 14: building up in Virginia, Maryland somewhere, and it's raising everyone's
Speaker 14: power bill. But apparently the people up there are paying
Speaker 14: astronomical amounts for power only imagine what's gone on since
Speaker 14: this freeze happened.
Speaker 1: See, yeah, thank you. Yeah. A lot of people say this,
Speaker 1: especially when you talk about power bills. They're like these
Speaker 1: AI facilities, And it is true that AI facilities can
Speaker 1: drive up the competition for purchasing power and then they
Speaker 1: got to buy the power from the electric companies just
Speaker 1: like you and me, and that can spike the prices.
Speaker 1: From the stuff that I've read on this, that's only
Speaker 1: responsible for like a ten percent chunk, okay go, but
Speaker 1: the increase. But is it true that every time I
Speaker 1: tell AI thank you, it cuts down eleven trees? They yeah,
Speaker 1: there's so much nonsense about AI and water overuse and stuff.
Speaker 1: Like a lot of that stuff is I mean, at scale,
Speaker 1: anything has an impact. And when millions and millions and
Speaker 1: millions and millions and millions and millions of people are
Speaker 1: using computing power, certainly that these things go up. But
Speaker 1: a lot of that stuff is fears that could be
Speaker 1: assuaged by just reading a bit more about what's happening.
Speaker 1: But like ten percent of the power bill increases can
Speaker 1: be attributed from what I've seen. It might be wrong
Speaker 1: before one I've seen about ten percent could be attributed
Speaker 1: to these data facilities, these AI facilities requiring so much
Speaker 1: more power and trying to buy all the available kilowatts
Speaker 1: and making your bill more expensive. The rest is we're
Speaker 1: using more power than ever before. We have a no
Speaker 1: on insignificant portion of the public who no longer goes
Speaker 1: to gas stations and instead plugs their vehicles in at
Speaker 1: their house, adding to the drain on the power grid
Speaker 1: with their electric vehicles. Let's run the numbers, Sea Lan,
Speaker 1: how many electric vehicles in the United States of America.
Speaker 1: I'm guessing I have no idea, Actually thirty million. I
Speaker 1: have no idea. Oh say million too high. It might
Speaker 1: be too high. As of late twenty twenty four early
Speaker 1: twenty twenty five, there were approximately four million electric vehicles
Speaker 1: on your own way hi way. I there so four
Speaker 1: million electric vehicles. Those are people who have to plug
Speaker 1: those in, and that's more of a drain on the
Speaker 1: power grid.
Speaker 4: And this all is why I wish.
Speaker 1: The President of the United States would do something about this.
Speaker 1: I wish he would step up. He's talked a big
Speaker 1: game on this, but he has not done it, and
Speaker 1: I'm I'm very upset that nothing has been done about this.
Speaker 1: To really further things, we need to reinvest in nuclear
Speaker 1: power facilities, safe nuclear power facilities in this country so
Speaker 1: that we have no problems with electricity and power generation,
Speaker 1: so that the marketplace is much more full of opportunities
Speaker 1: for people to buy power, maybe from different sources, so
Speaker 1: that it's clean available power. That will make it so
Speaker 1: you don't have to worry about big spikes and usage
Speaker 1: and all of these other things. But we haven't built again.
Speaker 4: I don't want to screw this up.
Speaker 1: When's the last nuclear power facility built in the United States?
Speaker 1: Thirty something years.
Speaker 8: Probably, I think that was Unit four and four again,
Speaker 8: commercial operation in April twenty nine, twenty twenty four.
Speaker 1: Oh, twenty twenty four. This is this is a very
Speaker 1: recent one. I mean that's.
Speaker 8: Prior to that was Watts bar Unit two in Tennessee
Speaker 8: began operation in twenty sixteen.
Speaker 1: Okay, see, those are few and far in between in
Speaker 1: recent days. I didn't even know they got one up
Speaker 1: at twenty twenty four.
Speaker 8: There are ninety three operating commercial nuclear reactors in the US.
Speaker 1: You got one if you grew up in South Florida.
Speaker 1: FP and L is a big nuclear power plan, incredibly
Speaker 1: safe overall, and.
Speaker 5: We have took a boot near there one time.
Speaker 4: We just haven't built them.
Speaker 1: We still use these dirty old ways to generate electricity
Speaker 1: at a lot of your power companies, and it's hard
Speaker 1: to get the permits, it's hard to be able to
Speaker 1: build the facilities. We need to lower that barrier for
Speaker 1: entry so that there's just absolutely abundant levels of energy
Speaker 1: available for everybody moving forward.
Speaker 4: That's what I want to see, Sean.
Speaker 1: When you start drinking the nuclear power waste, then I'll
Speaker 1: agree with you. Okay, cool, bring me a glass, k
Speaker 1: bring me a glass. The animals are fine, everything's fine.
Speaker 1: It's the safest, cleanest way to do it. You have
Speaker 1: been convinced by Homer Simpson that, yeah, do you think
Speaker 1: that I'd rather have a sip out of the nuclear
Speaker 1: power facility which burns clean right. All of this, by
Speaker 1: the way, is only steam, That's all it is. They
Speaker 1: use this to generate steam like almost every other power plant.
Speaker 1: The steam turns giant turbine. The turbine makes electricity. That's
Speaker 1: how a nuclear power plant generates electricity, or any other
Speaker 1: power plant does. The other facilities are far more disgusting
Speaker 1: in every measurable way. Okay, coal plants and all these
Speaker 1: other plants, even mixed use plants, are way more disgusting
Speaker 1: in every way that you might think.
Speaker 4: You just believe Homer Simpson and the Simpsons.
Speaker 1: Green nuclear power equals dangerous. So there we go. Let's see.
Speaker 1: I want to work in at least one or two dispatches, but.
Speaker 4: Maybe we'll just have to wait until we come back.
Speaker 1: We have breaking news. What have we got.
Speaker 6: Now, you're scream No, I just saw it on at
Speaker 6: text too.
Speaker 1: Oh, James Vanderbeek is dead at forty eight years old.
Speaker 1: He just said, had announced that he was struggling with
Speaker 1: he had a cancer diagnosis. I thought colon, but I
Speaker 1: could be wrong. He was.
Speaker 4: He was not looking very well, and I.

Speaker 1: insurance situation in the United States if there ever was one.
Speaker 1: But James Vanderbeek had announced that he had cancer and
Speaker 1: then wasn't gonna make one of the Dawson's Creek Reunion title,
Speaker 1: No he didn't. They did it.
Speaker 6: I think they did it the same theater where they
Speaker 6: do Hamilton, but they had actually Lin Manuel Miranda play

Speaker 4: Oh, he played like the actor guy.
Speaker 1: He has stage three colorectal cancer, which he revealed in
Speaker 1: late twenty twenty four. And James Vanderbeek, I've talked about
Speaker 1: this before in the show, but my favorite thing he
Speaker 1: ever did was the Rules of Attraction. I always really
Speaker 1: liked that movie. When I was younger, and I don't
Speaker 1: know if it holds up, but I at least thought
Speaker 1: it was cool then because it was one of these
Speaker 1: edgy movies and James Vanderbeek from Dawson's Creek was in it,
Speaker 1: and he played a pretty cool character. James Vanderbeek dead
Speaker 1: at forty eight years old after a battle with cancer.
Speaker 6: Marcity Blues one was pretty popular too. I don't know
Speaker 6: if it was more for James Vanderbeek's performance or was
Speaker 6: it Ali Larder.
