Speaker 2: the pulse. Let's see what's happening to this great, big
Speaker 2: wide world of ours, and let's play a little game

Speaker 2: that's right.
Speaker 4: It's right.
Speaker 2: Welcome everybody. This episode of annoying or not annoying occurs
Speaker 2: on an airplane.
Speaker 3: Ooh, I already know my answer.
Speaker 2: Previous episodes of annoying are not annoying on an airplane
Speaker 2: have included people getting married, Molanna, little girls, it was
Speaker 2: way off key, trying to sing Molana, trust lady, figuring
Speaker 2: the person in the.
Speaker 3: Back is not real, and screaming babies.
Speaker 2: Now this guy, all right, this is before the Indiana
Speaker 2: Miami game. And this guy stands up on a plane
Speaker 2: and he says, my name is John, and I like
Speaker 2: to have fun anywhere I go, which is quite to start. John.
Speaker 2: Let's listen in ladies and gentlemen. My name is Jean,
Speaker 2: and I liked have fun everywhere go. I'm going to
Speaker 2: the National Championship game and this will be the greatest
Speaker 2: flight of my life. If I can't get a who's
Speaker 2: your roley? Cry out of you guys, at least some
Speaker 2: of you, right, And it sounds like this, who I
Speaker 2: wish they did nothing. I wish he was like one,
Speaker 2: two three. Everybody's like, sit down, fat Miami's the best.
Speaker 2: I would have been like Buddy, I had never watched
Speaker 2: the college game and cared about the outcome. I hope
Speaker 2: your team dies on the field. Okay, leave me alone.
Speaker 2: All I want to do is fly, all right, I'm
Speaker 2: not good at that to begin with.
Speaker 3: Why do we have to make scenes now on the plane?
Speaker 2: I don't know? But can you do this on other
Speaker 2: forms of transportation? And not?
Speaker 3: I will?
Speaker 2: It's almost a bus is almost like more acceptable.
Speaker 3: My next bright line. I will do my best to
Speaker 3: disrupt everyone's bright line.
Speaker 2: If you stand up on a bright line train and
Speaker 2: you go, ladies and gentlemen, people are gonna be like,
Speaker 2: they're gonna grab their purses. They're gonna pull themselves back
Speaker 2: a little bit. Yeah, they're gonna be like, whoa, whoa, whoa,
Speaker 2: what exactly is happening here? The intro of I like
Speaker 2: to have fun wherever I go just.
Speaker 3: Sounds like something I don't want to be friends with.
Speaker 2: Constantly, my name is Bucket, I liked, Uh, well, let's
Speaker 2: get it started. John. John is his name John? And
Speaker 2: I like to have fun anywhere I go? And then
Speaker 2: he tries to do his little rally cry thing, let
Speaker 2: me zip it back home, be the greatest flight of
Speaker 2: my life. If I can't get it, who's your rally?
Speaker 2: Cry out? And you guys, at least some of you,
Speaker 2: some of me, kay? It sounds like this.
Speaker 5: Who yes, right, if you're hitting for Miami, find me
Speaker 5: after the game and I'll buy you.
Speaker 2: A beer to drug your sorrow. No, right about that?
Speaker 2: Put on three, I need you to say it loud.
Speaker 2: Don't do it. He's say it proud.
Speaker 6: I may or may not be a little drunk, all right,
Speaker 6: but on three, you heard it, say.
Speaker 2: It loud, proud?
Speaker 3: Oh my gosh.
Speaker 2: Two three, Thank you, And ladies and gentlemen, it's time
Speaker 2: the weigh in. Is it annoying or not annoying?
Speaker 3: I'm getting the votes in as we speak. Sean millions
Speaker 3: of people are voting now and while we're here. Ah, yep,
Speaker 3: it's been confirmed. This was, ladies and gentlemen, super annoying.
Speaker 2: Yeah. I don't like the precedent we're setting here that
Speaker 2: anybody could just stand up, like what what if this
Speaker 2: guy can do this? What's stopping somebody from santam Like.
Speaker 2: My name is James, I'm from the Church of the
Speaker 2: Latter day Saints.
Speaker 3: I'm talking about my Lord Jesus ribe if.
Speaker 2: I would tell James to shut his mouth and and
Speaker 2: you know, good for you do your old religion thing.
Speaker 2: But I'm on a plane.
Speaker 3: Here's the thing. I think had he shortened his whole
Speaker 3: speech and Brown blah blah blah blah just started the chant,
Speaker 3: then it would have been a little less annoying.
Speaker 2: It's like, on the count of three, we're gonna do
Speaker 2: who who? Who'sier one? Now? Everybody get ready? But are
Speaker 2: we doing it on three or is it go after three?
Speaker 2: All right, we're gonna one. It's like, dude, just just
Speaker 2: get to whatever you're doing. Why are we all main
Speaker 2: characters in the movie. It's not the.
Speaker 4: Most annoying plain thing I've ever seen, but it's it's
Speaker 4: up there. I do think if there's any place to
Speaker 4: pull this off, it would be a plane departing Indiana
Speaker 4: for Miami right.
Speaker 2: Before the game.
Speaker 3: There's also people just doing some business travels and some
Speaker 3: family connection.
Speaker 2: Going for whatever. They're just on a plane flying somewhere.
Speaker 2: They're trapped trapped in there. Oh boy, well, let us
Speaker 2: know what you think annoying or not annoying. We'll take
Speaker 2: your dispatches and emails on that as well as everything
Speaker 2: else we hit on during the show today. Congratulations to John,
Speaker 2: Congratulations him, because the Indiana Hoosiers did defeat Miami twenty
Speaker 2: seven to twenty one.
Speaker 6: They did Congratulations.
Speaker 2: They did it out there on the fields, they did
Speaker 2: their thing, and boy did they go nuts. All these fans.
Speaker 2: There were people. This was people watching in Bloomington, Indiana
Speaker 2: at Assembly Hall. These were the people watching the game
Speaker 2: remotely reacting. Day this is a watch party, for godsake, ollow,
Speaker 2: who are we hero, someblady? It's the news lady. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 2: this is like the news broadcast from and they're screaming
Speaker 2: and they're celebrating, and boy, oh boys, sane.
Speaker 3: For a watch party. I thought for sure that was
Speaker 3: just the crowd at the stadium.
Speaker 2: Yeah, this must be like the official school stadium. You know,
Speaker 2: they're all watching this packed in here and they just
Speaker 2: go bananas celebrating their twenty seven to twenty one when
Speaker 2: they have an undefeated season, the first national title for Indiana.
Speaker 2: I don't really care about football or sports, and I'm
Speaker 2: sure a lot of you don't either, but congratulations. Either way,
Speaker 2: A lot of people were reacting to this. Here was
Speaker 2: some rando. I think at like the airport or something.
Speaker 5: I mean, if you wake up in the morning and
Speaker 5: they're the champs, you'll actually believe it, right, I will
Speaker 5: believe it then. Right now it still feels a little iffy,
Speaker 5: but I think in.
Speaker 2: The morning it'll definitely be sure.
Speaker 5: Did you ever think IU football would ever say they're
Speaker 5: national champions? I went to Indiana. I graduated in ninety six.
Speaker 5: I watched one half of football in my four years there.
Speaker 5: My first game freshman year, one for one half. No,
Speaker 5: never in a millionaire said I think this. Congratulate being
Speaker 5: in Miami, you see the Hoosier Nation and travel from
Speaker 5: from Pasadena.
Speaker 2: To Atlanta to hear what has that been?
Speaker 7: Like?
Speaker 2: It's incredible. Rocket.
Speaker 5: I mean I flew here from Denver. Half the plane
Speaker 5: seemed like it was Hoosier fans.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, seemed like it was Hoosier fan. Did you
Speaker 2: do a Hoosier chair? Huh?
Speaker 3: I kind of forgot it already.
Speaker 2: Uh, Hoosia, you're one one shots and I'm not doing it.
Speaker 2: I'll forget that their mascot is the Hoosiers by the
Speaker 2: end of the show, like, I will forget about this. Uh.
Speaker 2: They were out there, they were climbing the trees as
Speaker 2: as people do when they were celebrating out in the
Speaker 2: cold in Indiana their victory. They were taking it all in.
Speaker 2: This is the the streets partying erupting here. Let's see
Speaker 2: jumping up and down. Yeah, I have no idea what
Speaker 2: anybody's saying. What I can tell you, though I could
Speaker 2: tell you from experience. You can get swept away by this,
Speaker 2: because I always talk about the year when I was
Speaker 2: downtown West Palm Beach and the Marlins won.
Speaker 3: The World Series Hollywood, Florida.
Speaker 2: And everybody kind of went out onto the streets and
Speaker 2: I cared about the Marlins. Then is about as much
Speaker 2: as I do now, which is to say one out
Speaker 2: of ten.
Speaker 4: I've told you I've been swept away in this because
Speaker 4: sometimes I just think it's fun to crack open a
Speaker 4: beer and spray it everywhere.
Speaker 2: So all of a sudden, I'm just like on this
Speaker 2: Miami Molly, I have no idea what's going on. But
Speaker 2: you can get swept up in the big s, the
Speaker 2: big party. That's what happened to a lot of these people.
Speaker 2: Congratulations to them all. There was some bad behavior out
Speaker 2: there though. There was two players that got into a fight.
Speaker 2: You know right there at the end of it. I
Speaker 2: think it was one of the Miami Hurricanes players came
Speaker 2: over and hit the Indiana.
Speaker 5: Players's Mark Fletcher, who swung at an Indian.
Speaker 2: Okay, he's got to be held back by coaches and stuff.
Speaker 2: It's like, buddy, come on, it's over. Okay, it's over.
Speaker 2: You got to pick up your stuff. You pick up
Speaker 2: your football and your cleats and stop crying. For God's sake,
Speaker 2: the Miami fans do what everybody else does. They kick
Speaker 2: on their camera like an absolutely normal person. What what
Speaker 2: normal person in the middle of a breakdown doesn't kick
Speaker 2: on their camera and make a little video where you're
Speaker 2: crying and the other team is celebrating, fireworks are going over.
Speaker 2: You're gonna be okay, You're gonna be okay. Congratulations. That's it.
Speaker 2: There you go. Oh my last little tidbit.
Speaker 8: Uh.
Speaker 2: And I'll get into the Trump audio reaction in a second.
Speaker 2: We'll see if you got like, if you got cheers,
Speaker 2: or if you got booze or whatever. I'll bring it.
Speaker 2: I guess kim zero booze. There it sounded like you
Speaker 2: gotta pop. But I'll bring up the audio so we
Speaker 2: can examine. But in the stadium. The I guess there
Speaker 2: was like some four K camera that was part of
Speaker 2: the broadcast. And I don't know much about this, so
Speaker 2: maybe Seelane, maybe you could try to find out more
Speaker 2: about this. But there was some four K camera that
Speaker 2: they were broadcasting that was just this like wide shot
Speaker 2: of the field, and in front of it was this
Speaker 2: couple and they kept like checking their phones and reading
Speaker 2: text messages the whole time, and they had no idea
Speaker 2: that their text messages were being like broadcast to everybody. Oh,
Speaker 2: all the people watching the game on this four K
Speaker 2: shot were watching this couple, and I think eventually somebody's
Speaker 2: like texting them about it, telling them, hey, stop checking
Speaker 2: your phone, because they were looking at their phone during
Speaker 2: the brock. They were looking like their.
Speaker 3: Banking that I'm talking about people filming them.
Speaker 2: And then somebody said, somebody sends somebody sends I don't
Speaker 2: know why they had it right there is, right where
Speaker 2: their seats were. Somebody sends them a shot of them
Speaker 2: at the stadium on their phones, and they're looking on
Speaker 2: their phones at the shot of them at the stadium
Speaker 2: on their phone. There's one of them smooching. Just what
Speaker 2: can you find out why they had this shot? Why
Speaker 2: why did they have this It looked.
Speaker 4: Like it was something that was kind of defaulted to
Speaker 4: during commercial breaks. So really it says, dude, the main
Speaker 4: broadcast the National Championship on Oh my gosh, I clicked
Speaker 4: it by mistakes.
Speaker 2: Son of them bit.
Speaker 4: Come on on the ESPN four K channel. So it's
Speaker 4: a different way of watching the game than I think
Speaker 4: most people did. ESPN four K channel. There's a couple
Speaker 4: sitting right in front of the camera that they are
Speaker 4: just showing instead of commercials, and they are kissing and
Speaker 4: flirting NonStop, and they have no.
Speaker 2: Idea the whole world can see them.
Speaker 4: There should have been somebody behind the scenes in the
Speaker 4: control room. I know it's not maybe the main broadcast,
Speaker 4: it's the four K one, it's a little more premium,
Speaker 4: but that camera should have been lifted.
Speaker 2: It's so stupid. They're they're looking at photos that people
Speaker 2: are setting them of them kissing, and they have no
Speaker 2: idea that they're being broadcast the whole time. Like they're
Speaker 2: scrolling through the photos on the phone, them kissing, them
Speaker 2: talking with each other, and like, oh my god.
Speaker 4: And then there's took almost half the game, but they
Speaker 4: figured it out. There's an actual picture that they finally
Speaker 4: looked around and saw and looked dead into the camera.
Speaker 2: I would have done that the whole time. I'd be like,
Speaker 2: you want ESPN to change this shot, Let's turn around
Speaker 2: and stare at the camera for the rest of the games.
Speaker 2: Just be like it's still going.
Speaker 3: Eventually I will show one boom or something like that.
Speaker 2: Pope.
Speaker 4: You know what it would have been the ultimate share
Speaker 4: of the show Tuesday is if we showed up today
Speaker 4: to find out that that couple was like, oh, you
Speaker 4: want to put us on camera the whole time, Let's
Speaker 4: show you what our favorite podcast.
Speaker 2: Oh my god, I would have I would have cried.
Speaker 2: I would have cried live on the show. But alas
Speaker 2: they didn't do it. They were too busy sucking face
Speaker 2: with one another. And that's the way it went.
Speaker 4: A couple of comments. Hopefully not another cold play situation.
Speaker 2: Right, Yeah, they if they did turn around, especially but
Speaker 2: if they did turn around, it shows me that probably
Speaker 2: probably that they weren't cheating. Yeah.
Speaker 4: I was curious because I've watched very few National Championship games,
Speaker 4: but I've watched a couple and I don't remember this
Speaker 4: being a thing last year year before. Maybe I was
Speaker 4: just not paying enough attention. When did people start calling
Speaker 4: it the natty? Like shortening it, like shortening it like
Speaker 4: natty light.
Speaker 2: That's all I know is natty light when I hear natty.
Speaker 4: But I saw a lot of people on social media,
Speaker 4: including Amy Koffel, posting call it to natty, calling it
Speaker 4: to natty.
Speaker 3: Okay, word trademark because we find ourselves in those Well
Speaker 3: they could use it.
Speaker 2: Oh oh yeah, maybe maybe Amy Coffee wouldn't be able
Speaker 2: to use it. This is not her personal personal social media. Yeah,
Speaker 2: I don't know. I saw the one of the players
Speaker 2: celebrating after his victory with his mom, who was in
Speaker 2: a wheelchair. She has a MSS, I believe, and she
Speaker 2: came out into the center of the field and he
Speaker 2: was celebrating with her. And then here's the Trump announcement.
Speaker 2: I guess, let's listen, Trump going on the jumpbo least.
Speaker 2: It's so hard to tell when they do this. When
Speaker 2: I was watching live, it sounded it sounded more like
Speaker 2: you gotta pop, like I heard a reaction, and it
Speaker 2: didn't seem like a colossal boo. Maybe there's better audio
Speaker 2: than that. But the one I heard nat We're going
Speaker 2: to take a quick break. We're going to take a
Speaker 2: quick break when we come back. We have so much
Speaker 2: to get to today. It's a very busy share the
Speaker 2: show Tuesday. I want to make some deals. I want
Speaker 2: to see if we can wheel and deal today on
Speaker 2: the show, and we're going to try to do that
Speaker 2: throughout the broadcast. Also some interesting announcements that are scheduled
Speaker 2: during the show. We got more drama in Minnesota with
Speaker 2: people out there trying to hunt these ice people. What's
Speaker 2: going on with that. There's a lot for you, and
Speaker 2: it's coming up next in the news junkie. Let's make
Speaker 2: a deal here, all right, Okay, Because when I see
Speaker 2: a lot of stuff going on in America, I don't
Speaker 2: know if I can be the great uniter. I don't
Speaker 2: think I have maybe that skill, but I at least
Speaker 2: have some reasonable ideas, and I think maybe that can
Speaker 2: bring people together. And when I see things going on
Speaker 2: that are just like super unpopular, bad strategy and just
Speaker 2: a bad look altogether, Like, for instance, the idea that
Speaker 2: in Minnesota, a lot of the people that are angry
Speaker 2: about all this ice stuff, they took to interrupting a
Speaker 2: church on Sunday, Like they went into a church and
Speaker 2: they interrupted the church in the middle of it. Families
Speaker 2: are like cowering. Keep in mind, I think it's worth saying, folks,
Speaker 2: there have been multiple churches that have been shot up
Speaker 2: in the last five years. So when weirdos come in
Speaker 2: and start screaming things, it's a little bit of an
Speaker 2: odd circumstance to be in. And you have disgraced Dodo
Speaker 2: former media personality Don Lemon, who is with some of
Speaker 2: these people at this particular church in Minnesota, and they
Speaker 2: went into the church and they started like harassing them
Speaker 2: during the sermon.
Speaker 3: Why church in particular? Is there a reason?
Speaker 2: Uh? One of the I think the pastor has like
Speaker 2: some sort of connections to Ice and they didn't like that,
Speaker 2: Like the pastor works with like the ice facility locally
Speaker 2: or whatever, and they didn't like that. And so I
Speaker 2: brought this up even to the folks on chat during
Speaker 2: the break. You can hang out over there on YouTube
Speaker 2: during all the breaks and get a little more content
Speaker 2: if you want, YouTube dot Com slash the news junkie.
Speaker 2: But I said, you know, is anybody in support of this,
Speaker 2: And there are very few people that would say they
Speaker 2: support somebody going into a church and interrupting a service,
Speaker 2: heckling them, you know, facing down the pastor and all
Speaker 2: of these things. And I don't care what your excuse is.
Speaker 2: I don't care if you say, like the pastor supports ice,
Speaker 2: that's none of your goddamn business. That's none of your business.
Speaker 2: You are not an enforcer for all people who don't
Speaker 2: agree with you. That's not how this works. That is authoritarian,
Speaker 2: that is that's the bad thing that you're doing, right, Like,
Speaker 2: it doesn't matter if you disagree with them, Leave them alone,
Speaker 2: Leave these people alone. But maybe we can make a
Speaker 2: deal here, Maybe we can make a bit of a deal.
Speaker 2: Because I saw this story and it seemed like, wow,
Speaker 2: this is a really bad idea. Why do these protesters
Speaker 2: seem so eager to go into all the annoying places
Speaker 2: brunch when people are just mining their own business, and
Speaker 2: just all these other locations where it's like, what the
Speaker 2: hell are you doing? Like, protests are meant for big,
Speaker 2: open public areas. Protests are meant to show your disagreement
Speaker 2: with the government federal, state, or local, and show them
Speaker 2: that there are other people who agree with you, to
Speaker 2: show out enforce to show you disagree with whatever is
Speaker 2: happening in your world. That's what a protest should be about,
Speaker 2: not about scaring little kids inside of a church. That's
Speaker 2: that's bad. I'll take the wild stance of saying that
Speaker 2: that's bad before I try to make a deal. Here,
Speaker 2: here's some of what happened. I guess let's.
Speaker 7: Say they're saying, Renee good.
Speaker 2: Are this guy right here? This one particular person. I've
Speaker 2: seen a bunch about him. He repeatedly does this stuff.
Speaker 2: He harasses people, pulls out his camera, gets in people's faces.
Speaker 2: I think he's gone into some churches before and done
Speaker 2: this kind of stuff. He seems like a pretty bad actor. Uh,
Speaker 2: and he's part of this larger group that went into
Speaker 2: this particular church in Minnesota. He said, why are you
Speaker 2: not standing up with the people in the Somali community?
Speaker 4: Interrupting worship?
Speaker 3: That's what these chaos makers are doing.
Speaker 2: Chaos makers.
Speaker 4: All of this type of behavior is plaguing the Democrat
Speaker 4: led city of Minneapolis at this point.
Speaker 2: All right, so this is Fox News talking about what
Speaker 2: happened to this church in Minnesota. Here's my proposition. We
Speaker 2: make a deal. Okay, we make a deal. These protesters
Speaker 2: will stop going into these non public places to express
Speaker 2: their disagreement with whomever they disagree with. They will stop
Speaker 2: going into churches and leave the churches alone. These people
Speaker 2: who are out there on the fringes and who are
Speaker 2: doing this stuff interrupting church will stop immediately harassing everybody
Speaker 2: that disagrees with them and going into churches and stuff.
Speaker 2: And as part of this agreement, everybody on the other
Speaker 2: side that hates this that I agree with and I'm like, yeah,
Speaker 2: this is an obnoxious this is a terrible thing. Everybody
Speaker 2: on the other side will say, Hey, if there are
Speaker 2: women trying to walk into a clinic to get an abortion,
Speaker 2: you will also leave them alone and you will let
Speaker 2: them that person do whatever they're doing to mind your
Speaker 2: own business in that scenario, that should be what like
Speaker 2: average Americans lock in on. That should be a deal
Speaker 2: that we all could make with each other where you say,
Speaker 2: stay out of the churches, leave these people and these
Speaker 2: families alone with your stupid radicalized politics, and hey, in exchange,
Speaker 2: will stay out of this other thing that we do
Speaker 2: that's literally every bit as annoying, okay, that I've seen
Speaker 2: with my own eyes before, And I think it's a
Speaker 2: fair comparison to barging into somebody else's life in space
Speaker 2: where you absolutely positively do not belong. Right. I think
Speaker 2: that if we could make some agreements as a society
Speaker 2: to do things like this, to say, hey, it's time
Speaker 2: to back off a little bit, it's time to chill
Speaker 2: the f out.
Speaker 3: We got a long year ahead of us.
Speaker 2: We've got three years still ahead of us. This is
Speaker 2: we're at the one year mark today. We got to
Speaker 2: make some deals. We have to learn how to work
Speaker 2: with each other. We have to learn how to be
Speaker 2: able to occupy the same spaces and exist in the
Speaker 2: same families, and we should make some deals. Hey, there
Speaker 2: should be some places that are off limits. A place
Speaker 2: where you're going for any kind of medical procedure, A
Speaker 2: place where you're going to share information with a medical
Speaker 2: professional that is nobody else's business except for yours, and
Speaker 2: as long as it's legal, nobody else should be involved
Speaker 2: in it. A place where you're going to worship in
Speaker 2: a church where you should be able to worship free
Speaker 2: of any lunatic running in screaming whatever they're dumb. Politics
Speaker 2: are at the top of their lungs.
Speaker 4: A place where you're going to eat in a restaurant
Speaker 4: on a Sunday afternoon.
Speaker 2: The brunch one that really pushes myles trying to eat
Speaker 2: some breakfast burritos here, I think step off.
Speaker 3: I mean, when you had made your grievances out loud
Speaker 3: during the brunch protests. I can't say we've heard of
Speaker 3: one the last couple of years. So this is a
Speaker 3: good start. As far as church protests and the abortion
Speaker 3: clinic protests, is it not.
Speaker 2: I think that there are always protests going on. There's
Speaker 2: just constant protests, but the locations don't usually annoy like
Speaker 2: this and like, well, I mean people are chasing around
Speaker 2: ice officers or fake ice officers all over the place.
Speaker 2: But there are there haven't been too many instances like
Speaker 2: this where you're like, dude, what are you doing? Back
Speaker 2: out of the church, for God's sake, leave these people alone.
Speaker 2: There's people, there's families leaving and the father's like like
Speaker 2: kind of hugging his kids walking out of there, and
Speaker 2: Don Lemon's at the door going this is what protests
Speaker 2: are for. It's meant to strike fear in people like you,
Speaker 2: absolute dumb ass. No, that's not what protests are for.
Speaker 2: That's not what protesting is about Protesting should be against
Speaker 2: laws or your government. Protesting should be done in public spaces.
Speaker 2: Protesting should be free of harassment of individuals that disagree
Speaker 2: with you just because you want to invade their space.
Speaker 2: And this should go both ways. We should be able
Speaker 2: to make a deal on this. Come to the table
Speaker 2: today and see if you can agree. Let me know.
Speaker 2: Send a dispatch over at thenewsjunkie dot com or send
Speaker 2: an email tips at the news junkie dot com, Tips
Speaker 2: at thenewsjunkie dot com. I'd love to see what you think.
Speaker 2: But that's really bad, bad strategy, bad everything across the board,
Speaker 2: and not a great idea, to say the least, in
Speaker 2: my opinion. Give us your thoughts with your dispatches, et cetera,
Speaker 2: et cetera. I did see there was a fight, and
Speaker 2: this is not very surprising in the hockey world. Even
Speaker 2: the kids fight sometimes, as we saw the other day
Speaker 2: with that like stage little kid fight that they were investigating,
Speaker 2: which honestly seemed kind of fun. I was enjoyingment.
Speaker 3: I wasn't against it.
Speaker 2: I was not against that one. And then, and this
Speaker 2: is hockey, so everybody, like you know, you're not getting
Speaker 2: into somebody's space and doing something and it's not expected.
Speaker 2: It's hockey. Fighting is part of the thing. At least,
Speaker 2: that's kind of a you're watching the happy game, you know,
Speaker 2: you do, you do. It becomes a part of the experience.
Speaker 2: And in this particular game, I guess the fight broke out.
Speaker 2: And I don't know how often this happens, but at
Speaker 2: one point both of the goalies were fighting each other.
Speaker 2: Here they are, it's the Florida Panthers goalie and the
Speaker 2: San Jose Sharks that burst. You take both the goalies.
Speaker 3: They're battling it out. The first time.
Speaker 2: They have all the padding on because of the goalies
Speaker 2: like out there trying to skate on the ice punching
Speaker 2: each other. How often does it happen that the goalies
Speaker 2: meet for a fight. They're so far away from each other.
Speaker 3: I don't know if you're winded by the time you
Speaker 3: get to the fight in.
Speaker 4: The middle you're skating over there, like hold on, wait place,
Speaker 4: stop when a fight starts, Because you'd think if both
Speaker 4: goalies were fighting, somebody get their hands on the damn
Speaker 4: puck and start scoring. Man, Yeah, that would be the
Speaker 4: last goalie fight ever. If they got into in the
Speaker 4: in the on on ice fisticuffs and then somebody started
Speaker 4: just scoring.
Speaker 6: Trill.
Speaker 2: We're fixing everything today. This is another thing you get.
Speaker 2: Do you know anymore fights in hockey. All you have
Speaker 2: to do is say the puck is live during the fight,
Speaker 2: and the fight breaks out, and then one person locks
Speaker 2: their eyes on that empty goal is the goalies are
Speaker 2: fighting in the middle of the rink or whatever it is,
Speaker 2: and then boom, the game changes immediately. They're not out
Speaker 2: there slugging each other. That's a good question. I don't fight.
Speaker 4: I think they call it a rink when it's a
Speaker 4: hockey game. I mean it is rink.
Speaker 2: It's on the ice they hit, the ice they take.
Speaker 2: The hockey field is a hockey field, the hockey ice,
Speaker 2: the hockey ice field.
Speaker 3: Er pitch for field hockey, arena, rink or stadium for
Speaker 3: ice hockey, often named after sponsors.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, of course, yeah. I mean you gotta get
Speaker 2: the money, surement, the system there.
Speaker 3: What rink was this one on?
Speaker 2: This was? It was well, it was the Panthers were
Speaker 2: playing the Panthers were playing the Sharks in the NHL game.
Speaker 2: Hockey fans, let us know if that's more common than
Speaker 2: I'm thinking. Like, does this actually happen more often than
Speaker 2: I think? But I don't think the.
Speaker 4: Goalies fight too much now because usually the fights start
Speaker 4: from some sort of clash or they hit each other
Speaker 4: or something happens. I don't think the two goalies typically
Speaker 4: come into contact with each other, so it's it is
Speaker 4: kind of a truck for them to start fighting.
Speaker 2: I think it's novel, I do, but let us know.
Speaker 2: Tips of the neews junkie dot com say one of
Speaker 2: those dispatches on the website quick break when we come back,
Speaker 2: somebody made a huge mistake, and you could make this
Speaker 2: mistake too. I don't want you to lose hundreds and
Speaker 2: hundreds of dollars. So let's try to prevent this from happening.
Speaker 2: When you're ordering what went down? Wait, t you hear this?
Speaker 2: Plus your feedback is rolling in and that's coming up
Speaker 2: next in the news Junkie. Let's make a deal on
Speaker 2: stuff like this, and it should be simple to do.
Speaker 2: We say, hey, stop harassing people who disagree with you politically,
Speaker 2: Stop harassing or random people in the streets and like
Speaker 2: deputizing yourself. Stop busting into a church while little kids
Speaker 2: are there during a service and shouting out all your nonsense.
Speaker 2: No one cares. Shut up and leave these people alone.
Speaker 2: Stop harassing people at brunch, and in return, stop harassing
Speaker 2: people at other places where they're making medical decisions that
Speaker 2: are between them and God and no one else. Then
Speaker 2: maybe the doctor and not your business at these abortion
Speaker 2: clinics where they harass women all the time who do
Speaker 2: the same things. We can make a deal on this stuff.
Speaker 2: They can make it a federal crime to harass people
Speaker 2: like this. And then people go, well, they're not going
Speaker 2: to stop doing it, Shohn, Yes they will. People will
Speaker 2: stop doing anything if you start arresting them, they'll stop
Speaker 2: doing all the this stuff.
Speaker 3: What about my damn right?
Speaker 2: You don't have any rights? If I tell if they
Speaker 2: make it a federal crime to not be able to
Speaker 2: you cannot harass people in these spaces, then you don't
Speaker 2: have any rights. You don't have any right to do that.
Speaker 2: You shouldn't have a right to do that. Just like
Speaker 2: I've talked about these things so many times because people
Speaker 2: get lost in the sauce. I am a huge proponent
Speaker 2: of free speech in the old school style where people
Speaker 2: are even allowed to disagree with you and stuff. But
Speaker 2: if you think that means like somebody would be able
Speaker 2: to sit up on my front lawn every day and
Speaker 2: be like, Sean's dead mother is a horse, Sean's dead mother,
Speaker 2: and like I wouldn't want to not only punch that
Speaker 2: guy in the face, but absolutely stomp him to the
Speaker 2: curb and get him arrested. Yes, of course, of course
Speaker 2: that's the case. Of course, that's how people feel. And
Speaker 2: if you feel the way that I'm talking, it's a
Speaker 2: totally normal and rational thing. And rationality needs to take
Speaker 2: charge once again. Enough of these little whiny babies. Push
Speaker 2: them out, make more things illegal that are obnoxious and
Speaker 2: rupped all of society, and arrest people for doing them.
Speaker 2: When people are breaking the law, put them behind bars,
Speaker 2: they will stop doing it. It works every time, more
Speaker 2: so than sex panther. That's incredibly successful. I tell you this. Okay,
Speaker 2: here's what I teased before the break. So I want
Speaker 2: to talk about this and maybe you Sabrina and Seiland
Speaker 2: have run into something like this before. But this woman
Speaker 2: went to a hotel in California. Montecito, California.
Speaker 8: Is that?
Speaker 2: Where's that is? Montecito, California, like Wine Country or by
Speaker 2: Los Angeles.
Speaker 4: Felix I just googled Montecito. There was something else that
Speaker 4: it was coming up in.
Speaker 2: I'm not familiar with Monte Sitar.
Speaker 3: Beautiful and you can find it very close to Santa Barbara.
Speaker 2: Santa Barbara, so that's southern California. I think, yeah, I believe.
Speaker 2: And this woman goes to this hotel in Santa Barbara
Speaker 2: area and she is with her husband and they say,
Speaker 2: you know what can we get you and her friend goes,
Speaker 2: I want this. They were on like a mini moon,
Speaker 2: which is you know, like a little little honeymoon thing
Speaker 2: that they were doing, and they her friend says, I'll
Speaker 2: take this margarita, and she goes, you know what, I'll
Speaker 2: take the regular margarita. And they say that's what you want.
Speaker 2: You want the regular margarita. She says, yep, sure thing,
Speaker 2: that's what I want. And they bring out this margarita
Speaker 2: for her. She tasted it. She goes, it's good, and
Speaker 2: they said, you're enjoying your margarita. Yes, it's good. I'm
Speaker 2: enjoying it. Thank you. And she goes on with her
Speaker 2: time with her with a partner and is enjoying herself.
Speaker 2: And when the bill comes back, you know, they bring
Speaker 2: over the receipt for her to sign, and she says,
Speaker 2: I look at it, and it says three hundred and
Speaker 2: five dollars. God, and she looks at the line items.
Speaker 2: One of the line items on her receipt is the
Speaker 2: margarita she ordered because the bar had something called a
Speaker 2: regular margarita for two hundred and eighty dollars.
Speaker 3: And they didn't double check.
Speaker 2: How convenient they have it on their menu. It's made
Speaker 2: with Don Julio nineteen forty two. You know, maybe that's
Speaker 2: like a good tequila. I guess Don Julio nineteen forty two.
Speaker 2: Your tequila heads will know, okay, but you.
Speaker 3: Shouldn't call it a regular margarita. That's not regular price.
Speaker 2: It seems a little tricky. It seems a little tricky
Speaker 2: to call it the regular.
Speaker 4: Margarite named it the regular margarita, so that if you
Speaker 4: say you want a regular margarita, uh huh. This was
Speaker 4: this was sort of like that urban myth back in
Speaker 4: the day. And maybe it wasn't an urban myth. Maybe
Speaker 4: there were people that really got got by this. But
Speaker 4: it used to be when you moved into a new
Speaker 4: house and you were setting up all your utilities, they
Speaker 4: would ask you like what service, what phone service do
Speaker 4: you want?
Speaker 2: And you would say, just give me any phone service.
Speaker 4: And there was like there's a company in town called
Speaker 4: any Phone Service that is four hundred bucks a month.
Speaker 2: Or something stupid like that.
Speaker 4: They used to tell you, like they used to warn
Speaker 4: you about that, and I, you know, everybody knew somebody
Speaker 4: who knew somebody who got got by that scam.
Speaker 2: And I had never heard of it actually happening, but
Speaker 2: it was a key word that you just said, though.
Speaker 2: Celan was warn don't you think that if a bar
Speaker 2: has a two hundred and eighty dollars option, which is
Speaker 2: obviously much more than people would assume, you might want
Speaker 2: to say, hey, just to confirm our regular margarita. It's
Speaker 2: a little pricey. Here's what it is, a specialty one. Yeah,
Speaker 2: but the people that weren't the were warning you about.
Speaker 4: It, weren't any phone service that wants to get your
Speaker 4: four hundred dollars. The people that were warning you were
Speaker 4: like other people who had heard this was a thing.
Speaker 4: In this case, the bar wants to get your two
Speaker 4: hundred dollars. They want you to order order that regular margarita.
Speaker 2: It seems wrong, It seems dishonest and wrong. She can't
Speaker 2: somebody else. Somebody else responded to this in the comments
Speaker 2: and said, I went to a place where they offered wine,
Speaker 2: and I said, uh, can you give me a suggestion?
Speaker 2: What kind of wine should we get? We're gonna get
Speaker 2: a bottle of wine. And the waiter goes the poly
Speaker 2: thing they'll ring him wine, and they go, that sounds great,
Speaker 2: We'll we'll take that. How much is it, by the way,
Speaker 2: and he goes thirty seven to fifty for that for
Speaker 2: that particular bottle. Oh great, okay, cool, yeah, yeah great.
Speaker 2: They bring out the bottle and when they asked for
Speaker 2: the bill, it was three thousand, seven hundred and fifty
Speaker 2: dollars for this whatever bottle of wine. And the waiters
Speaker 2: like I told you it was thirty seven to fifty.
Speaker 3: Fifty.
Speaker 2: Maybe I'm crazy. They seem dis honest to me, Like
Speaker 2: name it, call it the regular margarita. If it's a
Speaker 2: regularly priced margarita.
Speaker 3: Wouldn't other establishments get in trouble for something like that.
Speaker 2: I don't know, as I'm wondering here, could you do that?
Speaker 2: Because seems like you're not being a fully upfront about
Speaker 2: your pricing when you do that, which I don't think
Speaker 2: is legal, but I could be wrong. And let's put
Speaker 2: that on the list for MO. Let's bring that up
Speaker 2: and ask them and maybe you guys can tell us
Speaker 2: if you had any run ins with something like this.
Speaker 2: I know there are people before it will be like, oh,
Speaker 2: you know, I'll take a glass of that whiskey there, right,
Speaker 2: Can I get a shot of that whiskey? I like
Speaker 2: the bottle And then they bring over the whiskey and
Speaker 2: they pour it into a shot glass and you take
Speaker 2: the shot and they go, oh that was And then
Speaker 2: it's you know, some Pappy van Winkle or something, and
Speaker 2: they tell you you owe us two hundred and twenty dollars. Well,
Speaker 2: there should have been a warning somewhere like, hey, this
Speaker 2: is not a average priced thing. This is going to
Speaker 2: be more expensive. And in the food and drink business,
Speaker 2: when somebody orders something, they can't exactly give it back.
Speaker 2: It's not like you go to a place and they go,
Speaker 2: here's the weed whacker that we think you should get,
Speaker 2: and when you go to check out, you go to
Speaker 2: purchase it and it's four thousand dollars. You said, this
Speaker 2: is more expensive than I wanted to spend on a
Speaker 2: weed whacker. Today we just bring the weed back and
Speaker 2: put it down in the aisle. You can't put the
Speaker 2: whiskey back in the jar, as far as I know, well,
Speaker 2: you can't put the margarita back, and then you can.
Speaker 2: They frown upon it.
Speaker 3: They don't tell anybody it's back on how secret.
Speaker 2: Not sellable anymore.
Speaker 3: But when it comes to food in BEV and the
Speaker 3: restaurant industry, you also don't want bad reviews or viral
Speaker 3: story about how you dupe somebody because you want it
Speaker 3: to be funny and name your three hundred dollars margerita regular. Yeah.
Speaker 2: I think that eventually that is going to turn off
Speaker 2: more people than it brings in. I think people are
Speaker 2: not gonna like that. I think it doesn't seem fair.
Speaker 2: But you let us know what you think about this.
Speaker 2: That's the point of this show. We tell you things
Speaker 2: happening out there in the world, all things in the
Speaker 2: world of viral news, and then you weigh in. So
Speaker 2: let us know if you think that's fair or not.
Speaker 2: Send a dispatch at thenews junkie dot com. But a
Speaker 2: two hundred and eighty dollars margarita sounds crazy.
Speaker 4: I think the other thing would have to be, like,
Speaker 4: if the bar is really dead set on ripping you
Speaker 4: off like that by calling the regular Margarita two hundred,
Speaker 4: you know, calling the two hundred and eighty dollars Margarita regular,
Speaker 4: then everybody would have to be in on it. That
Speaker 4: means every bartender that works there would have to be
Speaker 4: the same amount of dick to not go, hey, you know,
Speaker 4: it's two hundred bucks. Like, wouldn't you feel bad as
Speaker 4: a server not bringing that up?
Speaker 2: I would, yeah, And I would not only would I
Speaker 2: feel bad, see lane, as a server, I would expect
Speaker 2: pushback from the customer when I delivered the receipt.
Speaker 3: And where does that reflect?
Speaker 2: I would take that? Would yeah? I would think your
Speaker 2: tip would be zilch unless it is gone.
Speaker 4: Unless they combat this behavior by going listen, everybody who
Speaker 4: serves a regular Margerita gets twenty.
Speaker 2: Dollars right, yeah, no more please. The whole thing is
Speaker 2: seeming like a scam though. Now the more and more
Speaker 2: you build onto this old fashome, let us know your thoughts.
Speaker 2: Send us a dispatch over at thenews junkie dot com.
Speaker 2: It's very easy to do. You can weigh in with
Speaker 2: a dispatch or an email, even tips t ips at
Speaker 2: thenewsjunkie dot com. All Right, lots of people have thoughts.
Speaker 2: We'll get in as I've promised to some of your
Speaker 2: feedback so far. There are people who are leaving work today.
Speaker 2: I'll tell you what that's all about. There's an announcement
Speaker 2: coming up, and that's just some of what we've got
Speaker 2: in the next segment alone. Don't miss out on anything
Speaker 2: on to share the show Tuesday, because that is coming
Speaker 2: up next on The News Junkie. When I see an
Speaker 2: idea like this, I go, I don't know, damn, maybe
Speaker 2: I'm wrong. Maybe I'm just totally wrong. Of all the
Speaker 2: fields that I might have an opinion on, the world
Speaker 2: of dating is not a great one for me. I
Speaker 2: haven't been single in twelve years, and I haven't been
Speaker 2: single for more than a week or two days. I
Speaker 2: haven't been single for more than a week or two
Speaker 2: in about twenty years.
Speaker 8: You know.
Speaker 2: I have not spent a lot of time in the
Speaker 2: dating arena on certainly not on dating apps. And it
Speaker 2: seems like a horror story. I'm just gonna be real
Speaker 2: with you, single people. It seems bad. It seems like
Speaker 2: there's good and bad. The good is like, oh, there's
Speaker 2: so many ways to connect with people that meet new
Speaker 2: people now, but also it can be a nightmare meeting
Speaker 2: some of those people.
Speaker 3: Especially when you're just being introduced to that one. In
Speaker 3: our age. It was way too much when I was
Speaker 3: single a couple of years ago, a little chat here
Speaker 3: and there, and then I don't know nothing.
Speaker 2: And then in your position, you don't know if the
Speaker 2: person knows you, You don't know if they are.
Speaker 3: Out a weird one for sure. I'd rather you just
Speaker 3: be honest because this is a public facing show versus
Speaker 3: finding out what you're doing. Spat's name is.
Speaker 2: Right, you know?
Speaker 5: Uh?
Speaker 2: Well you wait, your double dong Dave? How could I?
Speaker 2: How could I not have seen this?
Speaker 3: How do we gone to the third date?
Speaker 2: It's all very weird and it seems uncomfortable, but there
Speaker 2: is I would I would get there just to see
Speaker 2: the double dong? Why it's the same hot hot take dating. Okay,
Speaker 2: can't be real Number one, So singles, tell me if
Speaker 2: you've heard anything about this. My guess is this is
Speaker 2: media outlets for the eight billion time just kind of
Speaker 2: making up stuff that that they saw on Twitter, you know,
Speaker 2: saw on some platform that nobody.
Speaker 4: Has done one very niche thing that's happening in one
Speaker 4: corner of the world that probably doesn't represent the rest
Speaker 4: of the people.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's so often that that Sea Lane is the case.
Speaker 2: And the story from USA Today says twenty twenty six
Speaker 2: is coming in hot with a new dating trend. It's
Speaker 2: called hot take dating, and it's already starting to take
Speaker 2: over the world in the scene. According to Tinder's Year
Speaker 2: in Swipe report, it's a doozy. You know, the typical
Speaker 2: advice of avoiding touchy topics like politics or religion with
Speaker 2: somebody you just met, especially on a first date. Well,
Speaker 2: hot take dating throws out that conventional wisdom and encouraging
Speaker 2: daters to get as upfront and honest as possible about
Speaker 2: their viewpoints, especially their most controversial ones. Tell them what
Speaker 2: you think about the Jews right off the jump, baby,
Speaker 2: just first date, you're like, oh, can we get into
Speaker 2: the Jaooh oh god. That seems like such a bad idea.
Speaker 2: But is it a good idea? Because why not sort
Speaker 2: it out? Like, let's say you're some left wing woman,
Speaker 2: which you know is a lot of them. You're some
Speaker 2: left wing single woman, and you sit down and some
Speaker 2: guy goes a couple things about me, like football, I'm
Speaker 2: a big fan of the Raiders, and also I stormed
Speaker 2: the Capitol on January sixth.
Speaker 3: Oh that's what that picture was.
Speaker 2: You might be like, oh okay, I like hot take dating.
Speaker 2: That made this a lot easier than it would have been.
Speaker 2: I could appreciate that.
Speaker 3: But there's also something to sucking the magic out of
Speaker 3: a first date where you don't have to get into
Speaker 3: the complicated stuff. Maybe there's a prompt. There's one of
Speaker 3: the apps it is Hinge if not the other one, Bumble,
Speaker 3: where they prompt you, like they give you the first
Speaker 3: question if you.
Speaker 2: Were the star of a TV show, Which TV show
Speaker 2: would it be or something like that.
Speaker 3: But if you were to pay one nine nine extra,
Speaker 3: then you get into the hot take questions. But that's
Speaker 3: after the first day flirting.
Speaker 2: So they do have that, like they do. They literally
Speaker 2: have a thing where they'll give you an ice breaker
Speaker 2: question and it could be about politics.
Speaker 9: No, no, I am suggesting a new Oh okay, okay,
Speaker 9: well I guess yeah, yeah yeah, because I mean I
Speaker 9: think that is going to cause the most division.
Speaker 2: But now we live in a world full of these
Speaker 2: really soft people, and I bring up the soft people
Speaker 2: and the political people, because they're at the heart of
Speaker 2: our problem so many times, and the soft people and
Speaker 2: the political people seem to be one of the same.
Speaker 2: So many times. They just can't stand for somebody to
Speaker 2: disagree with them, Like they can't stand the idea that
Speaker 2: they would go out on a date and they'd go, well,
Speaker 2: how do you feel about this? And you bring up
Speaker 2: some sort of topic and they'd be like, oh my god,
Speaker 2: you can disagree with me. Oh my goodness. Imagine like
Speaker 2: you must agree one hundred percent with somebody otherwise you're
Speaker 2: going to go nuclear. That's weird. USA today continues. It's
Speaker 2: not a totally flawed strategy. Dating and relationship experts say, oh,
Speaker 2: I trust them so much, but if not done tactfully,
Speaker 2: hot take dating could land you on hot water. It
Speaker 2: also could accidentally repel people who otherwise would have been
Speaker 2: a good match but got the wrong impression about how
Speaker 2: set you are in your beliefs. I've seen people do
Speaker 2: this kind of stuff, like in a mild way for
Speaker 2: a long time. For instance, I've seen people who'd be like, hey,
Speaker 2: I'm four twenty friendly, I get that, or I'm a drinker.
Speaker 2: Because if you're a drinker, if you're a pothead, you
Speaker 2: probably want somebody who aligns with you or doesn't care,
Speaker 2: you know, like they don't they don't have to do
Speaker 2: the same thing as long as they don't care. If
Speaker 2: you do it, you're probably gonna want alignment on that.
Speaker 2: But that that's like how it used to be kind
Speaker 2: of thing. Now it's like whoa, how do you feel
Speaker 2: about elon musk? But also electric vehicles? But also US
Speaker 2: kidnapping Maduro from Venezuela, but also Canada Tariff says, like what,
Speaker 2: I don't want to talk about any of these things.
Speaker 2: I thought we were going to have a couple of
Speaker 2: drinks and get naked and roll around for a little while,
Speaker 2: at least three or four minutes. That's what I thought
Speaker 2: we were going to get into. But that's not what
Speaker 2: they're doing. Then you can tell me about all your
Speaker 2: Smith's mortions. Yeah, I'm coming up. According to the Tinder
Speaker 2: you're in Swipe, thirty seven percent of singles say they
Speaker 2: find shared values essential for day, with forty one percent
Speaker 2: almost half of these single people saying they're unwilling to
Speaker 2: date somebody with opposing political views. Folks, we're going to
Speaker 2: breed into what we're going to breed into political parties
Speaker 2: further than we already were. We're just going to be
Speaker 2: like this guy I'm going to set you up with.
Speaker 2: He's got a great job, he's really really nice, he
Speaker 2: is so kind, he opens doors, he gives to charity,
Speaker 2: works at soup kitchen on his time off. And then
Speaker 2: you're like, who cares? Is he a Republican?
Speaker 5: Ew?
Speaker 2: Gross? Oh the idea that that's where it's.
Speaker 4: Not that crazy though, I it's not that crazy because
Speaker 4: some of the people who are like really hardcore about that,
Speaker 4: they're not gonna they're not going to want.
Speaker 2: To be with somebody like that has opposing views. Yeah,
Speaker 2: but the idea that that's forty one percent almost half
Speaker 2: of people.
Speaker 4: I think of the person who like you agree with
Speaker 4: but is so like a certain way about it that
Speaker 4: it's annoys you, Like, like I have pretty I have
Speaker 4: aligning views with you, but you still kind of annoy
Speaker 4: me in the way you approach it. You think that
Speaker 4: person is going to entertain dating somebody who has different
Speaker 4: stances on political Uh, you know, like.
Speaker 2: What but isn't it isn't the divider there celane that
Speaker 2: like I wouldn't want to date somebody who annoys me. Well, yeah,
Speaker 2: say but but but I'm not just by default annoyed
Speaker 2: if they disagree with oh truth, Bob, So I guess forget. Forget.
Speaker 2: It's great.
Speaker 3: I think you can have opposing views, but if it's
Speaker 3: going if it takes over your entire life, that's not
Speaker 3: someone I want to be with.
Speaker 2: Yes, but but you're if you're disagreeing with the person
Speaker 2: on the fact that, like, if you say that this person,
Speaker 2: it's not because they they don't agree with me on
Speaker 2: these topics. It's because I find them annoying. I think
Speaker 2: that's more justified. And maybe you'll find it hard to
Speaker 2: separate those. But I don't like I think what Seland's
Speaker 2: saying resonates with me. In as much as sometimes I
Speaker 2: can agree with somebody, i'd be like, hey, yeah, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 2: and then they'll say someone'll be like what dude, Yeah,
Speaker 2: It'll be really obnoxious what they're saying, And then I'll
Speaker 2: see a part of the personality that is away from
Speaker 2: these political leanings that I find to be annoying, and
Speaker 2: that that I think is fine to focus in on.
Speaker 2: But like I'm saying, that person imagine if you're finding somebody.
Speaker 2: Imagine Courtney couldn't disagree with me, which of course you can't,
Speaker 2: but imagine that.
Speaker 9: You know there was a world where do the magic
Speaker 9: button sound? If she said something and I was like,
Speaker 9: what you said? Bitch, I don't agree with that at all.
Speaker 9: You shut your mouth, or this relationship is over.
Speaker 2: If in twelve years we haven't disagreed on something, I'm
Speaker 2: not with a person and that I'm interested in. For me,
Speaker 2: I want a little bit of difference of opinion. I want.
Speaker 2: I don't want to date myself, for God's sake. How
Speaker 2: masturbatory is that? It's weird? Weird, weird. Courty and I
Speaker 2: disagree on all sorts of things. We agree on many
Speaker 2: more things. We agree on most things, most core beliefs
Speaker 2: in life. But the idea that you're like, I don't
Speaker 2: want to date somebody who I might disagree with, so
Speaker 2: I need to get it all out right at the front.
Speaker 2: That's what USA today says is happening. But again I
Speaker 2: don't know if I believe this. The trend is also
Speaker 2: emerged because of social media, which encourages people to have
Speaker 2: a hot take about pretty much everything in order to
Speaker 2: gain attention. And followers. The attitude is bled over into
Speaker 2: other dating apps too. People are now so accustomed to
Speaker 2: sharing opinions online. It's almost like in order to get traction,
Speaker 2: you have to have a hot take, you know, on
Speaker 2: and on they go. But sometimes it goes awry. Well,
Speaker 2: of course it does, because how hot can these takes be? Yeah,
Speaker 2: I don't think I don't think most people. Well, maybe
Speaker 2: I'm wrong. I was gonna say I don't think most
Speaker 2: people to approach it this way. But if forty one
Speaker 2: percent of people agree with that, maybe I'm out of
Speaker 2: touch on the dating interactions, which is very possible. But
Speaker 2: let us know what you think. If you're in that world.
Speaker 2: Send a dispatch over at thenewsjunkie dot com. All right,
Speaker 2: a couple of things. Here's an interesting email. Dusty emails
Speaker 2: the show and he sends along the link. I'll take
Speaker 2: a look at this link in a second. He says,
Speaker 2: today I contacted Verizon. He's talked about the Verizon outage,
Speaker 2: and he says, I got my next bill of one
Speaker 2: hundred and fifty five dollars waved just by talking to
Speaker 2: support over.
Speaker 3: At Verizon doing that automatically.
Speaker 2: No, they're giving them a twenty dollars credit, twenty dollars
Speaker 2: credit to their accounts, and people wanted more. And this person,
Speaker 2: Dusty says, I called them and I said, I'm not
Speaker 2: taking this, I want my next bill waved and he
Speaker 2: said he got his next one hundred and fifty five
Speaker 2: dollars bill completely waved, just by talking to support. Everybody
Speaker 2: can do it, he says, just a helpful to mention
Speaker 2: on the radio to get it to everybody out there.
Speaker 2: And somebody says, don't settle for twenty dollars. This is
Speaker 2: an Android Authority dot com. I don't know if they're
Speaker 2: legit or not, but don't settle for twenty dollars. Verizon
Speaker 2: carde Verizon outage crowd. You remember two dollars? Do you
Speaker 2: remember a little store called Sports Authority if they were
Speaker 2: the end all wait all there on the sports So
Speaker 2: if you call and complain, it'd be nice, don't you know,
Speaker 2: don't be too rude or whatever. There's people saying that
Speaker 2: they will completely wipe out whatever it is that you
Speaker 2: owe for your monthly bill up to two hundred dollars.
Speaker 10: And the.
Speaker 2: Customer sport people have been allowed to do this. They've
Speaker 2: been like granted authority to do this, So if you're
Speaker 2: a Verizon user worth it, I guess, right, well, you know,
Speaker 2: why not why not take a shot at doing that.
Speaker 2: Let's see what else we got here for emails coming
Speaker 2: in tips at the news Junkie dot com. On the
Speaker 2: football front, where there was the couple on that four
Speaker 2: K shot that Celan was digging up more information about,
Speaker 2: Darren says. On direct TV, it's something called the four
Speaker 2: K default view when commercials are running on other channels.
Speaker 2: It's the default channel for recording major sports events. And
Speaker 2: the weird thing was for the people who were on
Speaker 2: this shot, the camera was right over their shoulders. They
Speaker 2: were like kissing each other and texting and bringing up
Speaker 2: their their apps and stuff on their phone, and they
Speaker 2: had no idea that there was an entire audience of
Speaker 2: people watching them because on direct TV and some of
Speaker 2: the other outlets, I guess they put this up during
Speaker 2: commercials and it was a view of their seat and
Speaker 2: a bunch of folks were just watching them back and forth,
Speaker 2: I guess, And it was.
Speaker 4: Only for people who were watching specifically the four K
Speaker 4: offering that I guess you probably pay extra for. And
Speaker 4: so I don't know if that's why they don't put
Speaker 4: commercials on it or what the deal is.
Speaker 3: But I'd rather have a commercial, say in the back
Speaker 3: of people's sets.
Speaker 2: For a bit, it was this is kind of weird,
Speaker 2: but I never watched anything like that necessarily, I don't
Speaker 2: have direct TV.
Speaker 4: When my roommate had the MLB package back in the day,
Speaker 4: and he bought just the MLB package so he could watch,
Speaker 4: like you can buy it just for your team, because
Speaker 4: there's so many baseball games, and he just wanted to
Speaker 4: watch the Cubs, and so he would watch the games.
Speaker 4: And they also did not show advertising on some of
Speaker 4: those games the way that you would watch them, and
Speaker 4: instead it would just be silent, and it was always awkward,
Speaker 4: like I'd be doing something in the in the house,
Speaker 4: in the kitchen, whatever, and all of a sudden, it's
Speaker 4: super quiet, and I'm like, the hell is going on?
Speaker 4: I turn around, was like, Oh, it's the it's the
Speaker 4: commercial break. We'll be back, and I'm like, I almost
Speaker 4: kind of wish you would just show a wide shot
Speaker 4: of the of the diamond and have the crowd noise
Speaker 4: just so there's some ambience, right, or that's I think
Speaker 4: why YouTube TV started doing those little like they had
Speaker 4: like little jingles playing like bring.
Speaker 2: It's a little more exciting, I guess yeah. Steven emails
Speaker 2: Tips of the News Junkie dot Com. Last one for
Speaker 2: now Junkies. Oh Mg, it is comically painful listening to
Speaker 2: you guys talk sports, and I love every moment of it.
Speaker 2: An idea for the most epic April Fool's Day show
Speaker 2: Junkie Sports Radio. Just roll with whatever you can think of.
Speaker 2: Bring on guests like Fritz and Josh, or have Fritz
Speaker 2: on the street, but all sports related. The most epic
Speaker 2: show ever. Keep up the good work, Wiggles and Pop,
Speaker 2: says Stevens.
Speaker 3: You like actual sports interviews. I love those in with
Speaker 3: professional players, and even the email will prompt it as
Speaker 3: if we are crazy sports.
Speaker 2: Now we're going to really get into the analytics and stats.
Speaker 2: We're going to stats crunch or whatever they call it.
Speaker 2: We're probably not going to do that in the case
Speaker 2: you're trying to tone now. When we come back, we're
Speaker 2: looking for a big announcement today. There's a big announcement
Speaker 2: that's coming down the pipeline. We'll get into what that is.
Speaker 2: People are leaving work today. I'll tell you why that's
Speaker 2: going on. We'll get geared up for the next episode.
Speaker 2: Then I have another deal I want to make with you.
Speaker 2: It's let's make a deal here on this show today.
Speaker 2: I've got another deal. I think I can bridge the gap.
Speaker 2: We'll see how con t reversial this is. That as
Speaker 2: well is on the way and it's coming up next
Speaker 2: on the News Junkie. There's an announcement that is being
Speaker 2: hinted today. We'll get to that in just a bit here.
Speaker 2: I want to make another deal. Let's make a deal.
Speaker 2: That's what I'm working on in the show today. I'm
Speaker 2: trying to fix things. I'm trying to bring everybody together.
Speaker 2: I have to tell you, just to be real with you,
Speaker 2: I've been so disappointed with the news cycle so far
Speaker 2: in twenty twenty six. First, I started off the year
Speaker 2: with two weeks of being sick and barely having a voice,
Speaker 2: so I couldn't get to what was my big goal
Speaker 2: for the year, which is to start increasing the output
Speaker 2: of videos on all these social media channels and doing
Speaker 2: short videos and some longer, more in depth videos, and
Speaker 2: doing a lot of stuff that can add content and
Speaker 2: build up the audience and drive in new people to
Speaker 2: the show, but everything has been Ice. It's all Ice,
Speaker 2: and I'll be honest with.
Speaker 3: You, yeah, I will take care of within the week.
Speaker 2: Ice is like the overarching story. Like there's a website
Speaker 2: that I follow. I don't know if you guys have
Speaker 2: seen this. It's I use it as one of my
Speaker 2: stupid show prep things. But there's a website where each
Speaker 2: day somebody has this Google sheet and they put the
Speaker 2: main character, like you know today's main character. They say,
Speaker 2: each day online there's somebody who becomes the main character
Speaker 2: and they get all the focus and attention. And sometimes
Speaker 2: it's like a really stupid thing. Like for instance, one
Speaker 2: day it was this guy named bean Dad who was
Speaker 2: who was on a podcast with the Jeopardy host. I
Speaker 2: remember being dad, and Bean Dad was like, I just
Speaker 2: saw my child struggling to open up a can of beans.
Speaker 2: And my child was like, I'm hungry. Helped me open this, Dad,
Speaker 2: and he was like, no, we're gonna learn a lesson here.
Speaker 2: You're gonna learn how to open that can of beans,
Speaker 2: and that's when you're gonna eat. And then people decided
Speaker 2: at that point to grab their pearls and clutch hard
Speaker 2: and say your your child is hungry, help them, let
Speaker 2: them have the beans, and let them and bean Dad
Speaker 2: became a thing for a day. He was the main
Speaker 2: character of the day, as dumb as that sounds, right.
Speaker 2: So this year starts off with Mom Donnie on the
Speaker 2: first being sworn in and stuff. Maduro you know, being
Speaker 2: grabbed out of Venezuela and he's held in prison in
Speaker 2: the United States the anniversary of January sixth, and then
Speaker 2: every day the main character has been Ice, Ice, Ice, Ice, Ice, Ice,
Speaker 2: and Rob Reiner didn't get a no, Rob render didn't
Speaker 2: even make it make it on the list here. It's
Speaker 2: been Ice every day for the last two weeks. At
Speaker 2: the end of last year, he might have.
Speaker 3: Been yeah, oh maybe it was Christmas.
Speaker 7: Yeah.
Speaker 4: I don't even feel like we talked about January sixth
Speaker 4: that much on the anniversary of it, aside from this
Speaker 4: manledging that it was.
Speaker 2: The next day after January sixth, January seventh was when Ice,
Speaker 2: the ice officer killed Renee Goods. So it's been NonStop
Speaker 2: since then. It's been nice every day. I don't want
Speaker 2: to make videos about this. I want to bring people together,
Speaker 2: I want to share viral news. I don't want to
Speaker 2: do this let's make a deal. ICE will stop going
Speaker 2: through these neighborhoods and getting lower level offenders, people who
Speaker 2: perhaps just over state a visa or just cross the
Speaker 2: border in this country illegally. ICE will stop with the
Speaker 2: heavy handed deporting of a lot of these people that
Speaker 2: aren't your more aggressive criminals. If finally, everybody else who
Speaker 2: opposes this will be willing to get serious about the
Speaker 2: security along the border. If finally we can stop the
Speaker 2: root cause of this, then we'll make a deal to
Speaker 2: stop going nuts into porting everybody with sombrero, everybody hanging
Speaker 2: out at the burrito shop. Maybe we can make a
Speaker 2: deal where we go, hey, finally we can make something
Speaker 2: happen here where we secure the border and this doesn't
Speaker 2: continue on forever and ever. Amen. That would be something
Speaker 2: that I think most people would be on board with.
Speaker 2: But the problem is when you have an entire party
Speaker 2: in the United States of America who has basically just
Speaker 2: turned their back on a major problem affecting all these
Speaker 2: border states, and more and more and more illegal immigrants
Speaker 2: have popped into the United States of America. They've been
Speaker 2: encouraged a lot of them by some of these people, like,
Speaker 2: you know, we're not going to do anything but pop
Speaker 2: on over. They flood in, their family floods in, and
Speaker 2: then afterwards it takes somebody doing something to get them
Speaker 2: out of here. If we could stop the problem and
Speaker 2: have legal immigration in this country takeover and make sure
Speaker 2: it's orderly, we know what's going on, and you know
Speaker 2: everything is above board and we're secure, then maybe we
Speaker 2: could stop with all this over the top enforcement of things.
Speaker 2: This would be a deal I would like to make.
Speaker 2: Let me know if you're on board, send a dispatch
Speaker 2: at the news Junkie dot com or email the show
Speaker 2: tips tips at the news Junkie dot com. Please stop
Speaker 2: letting Ice be the main character of the day. I
Speaker 2: want more. I want more, Please, I want this announcement too.
Speaker 2: Because if you're a theme park fan, I know sometimes
Speaker 2: people will want to make fun of you for being
Speaker 2: a theme park fan, including Sea Lane and Sabrina. They'll
Speaker 2: go after you. They'll call you Disney adults, They'll call
Speaker 2: you all sorts of names. They'll they'll think you're a
Speaker 2: nerd for wanting to go enjoy some sort of you know,
Speaker 2: theme park. You were person until you were the other person.
Speaker 10: I was not.
Speaker 2: I I don't think I was you were. Okay, give
Speaker 2: me give me some one example of how I Wanney
Speaker 2: adults weird. Yeah, Disney adult, that's weird, Selane. Disney adults
Speaker 2: are weird. People who make their entire personality about being
Speaker 2: a Disney adult. And they're like, you know, he's usually acoustic.
Speaker 3: What does that make you?
Speaker 2: That doesn't make you a Disney adult. Disney adult is
Speaker 2: a personality type. It's a person that their whole existence
Speaker 2: and being is simply about this thing. And even people
Speaker 2: who go to theme parks regularly are like, ew, look
Speaker 2: at this person. Jesus, you got three pairs of Mickey
Speaker 2: Mouse ears on at the same time. They don't like
Speaker 2: them either. All right, now we make a deal on
Speaker 2: this too. About to fix everything today, God, one thing
Speaker 2: at a time. Universal is teasing an announcement. Let's see
Speaker 2: if they've done it. Let's see Universal Studios. Do I
Speaker 2: still google Twitter or do I put X Universal Studios X.
Speaker 2: I think it's Universal Orlando Resort.
Speaker 7: Right.
Speaker 2: They were talking about having a big announcement today. Oh,
Speaker 2: they did it. They just dropped the announcement. Here it is.
Speaker 2: They have said, finally, what is replacing the rip Ride
Speaker 2: rocket that is being in the middle of being removed
Speaker 2: from Universal Studios Orlando right now. Everybody kind of knew
Speaker 2: this was coming up, but they've announced that it's the
Speaker 2: Fast and Furious Hollywood Drift roller coaster, which is coming
Speaker 2: in twenty twenty seven of the Ununiversal Orlando resort.
Speaker 3: They Fast and Furious already, No, no, but that's the next.
Speaker 2: Thing that they're replacing Ripride Rocket with the same roller
Speaker 2: coaster that they just launched in Los Angeles at Universal,
Speaker 2: which is like fast and furious cars on a roller coaster.
Speaker 2: I'm kind of cool looking, but your point being, they
Speaker 2: already have a Fast and Furious riding, yeah, and.
Speaker 4: They're replacing that with Hollywood Rip Ride Rockets. The experience.
Speaker 2: That, just for those of you who don't know, the
Speaker 2: other Fast and Furious ride that they have is universally hated.
Speaker 3: People do not like that doesn't make any sense anymore stupid.
Speaker 2: It's like, oh, the family, everybody's family.
Speaker 3: Here and the hologram of Ludacros from It's so many
Speaker 3: years ago.
Speaker 2: People hate that, and now people are wanting that to
Speaker 2: be replaced, And that sounds like it makes sense if
Speaker 2: you have Fast and Furious the roller coaster, maybe you
Speaker 2: replace the other thing. And what I'd like to see
Speaker 2: personally is a revamp. I'd like something done where they
Speaker 2: do a back to the future ride. I'd like to
Speaker 2: see a back to the future like modern interpretation of that. Okay,
Speaker 2: I think that Riddle me.
Speaker 4: Now, the place where Fast and the Furious is the
Speaker 4: current incarnation, not the roller coaster. That's what used to
Speaker 4: be terminator to T two three D.
Speaker 2: That used to be like the Beetlejuice thing over there,
Speaker 2: And okay, no, no, no. T two three D was
Speaker 2: across from the broadcast center and that is now what's
Speaker 2: the Matt Damon one Borne identity or whatever. That's like
Speaker 2: a a Matt Damon Bourne whatever show. So I don't.
Speaker 3: Imagine it was actually Matt Damon being born every single ride.
Speaker 2: That'd be great. I watched. I think it was Celane.
Speaker 4: I was trying to think of the other Matt Damon
Speaker 4: thing like Goodwill Hunting the ride.
Speaker 2: I think it was. I think it was disaster. Disaster
Speaker 2: is first disaster. It was earthquake. Twister was where Jimmy
Speaker 2: Fallon is. I think because we all we all went
Speaker 2: on that right before it closed out. The three of
Speaker 2: us went on that ride together. Yes, very hum before,
Speaker 2: very very high. We were actually yeah, I think so
Speaker 2: it was. I remember some of it, but get yeah,
Speaker 2: and I remember at that point time whole like two
Speaker 2: year obsession with Bill Paxton started. Yeah, and you guys
Speaker 2: memorized the video that they used to play on the line.
Speaker 3: It was an hour wait, so we said a lot
Speaker 3: of Bill.
Speaker 2: The Edibles kicked in just at the right time, right, yeah. Yeah,
Speaker 2: So now there's no way they gonna have too fast
Speaker 2: and the Furious stare them, and they might. I think
Speaker 2: that they should. This would be good too, came to
Speaker 2: them like having ceases and assistance. Yes, and furiouses. Pharaoh
Speaker 2: Kings says, bring back Jaws.
Speaker 3: I loved Jaws.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'd be down by that. I think Jaws could
Speaker 2: be wrong. I'm not so great on the theme park history,
Speaker 2: so I think Jaws was where Harry Potter is.
Speaker 4: Yes, I think you have it pretty You have the
Speaker 4: old map versus the new map down pretty well.
Speaker 3: Replace the Shark with Baltimore and he just pops out
Speaker 3: of the water fire and the tour guide is like, whoa,
Speaker 3: we've loved.
Speaker 2: Big upgrade communication, big upgrade, though.
Speaker 10: I like it.
Speaker 2: I'm a fan I think this could be cool. But
Speaker 2: let us know what you think if you are a
Speaker 2: theme park fan, if you are even a Disney adult,
Speaker 2: or if you want to agree or disagree with my
Speaker 2: second let's make a deal.
Speaker 4: I got more for you if we're going to get
Speaker 4: chime ins from theme park fans. Add in because I'm curious.
Speaker 4: You mentioned that the Harry Potter where it is now
Speaker 4: in that park used to be the Jaws area. Are
Speaker 4: there any odes to Jaws, like secret nods or Easter eggs?
Speaker 3: I think they saw that rope that they had them.
Speaker 2: They have the shark.
Speaker 4: Yeah, they have the Shark over that's that's not like
Speaker 4: a hidden thing like when you go on The Mummy.
Speaker 4: There's a certain scene in which the lights kick on
Speaker 4: and you see all this. You see all this golt. Okay,
Speaker 4: you see all the gold.
Speaker 2: Be happy with yourself, and that.
Speaker 4: This lady that just died on No, I'm talking about
Speaker 4: this statue of King Kong that's hidden among all the gold,
Speaker 4: because that building used to be where the King Kong
Speaker 4: ride was, and there's a reference to Back to the
Speaker 4: Future in the Simpsons ride for the same reason.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'll tell you. I'm such a poser on this,
Speaker 2: and I'm willing to admit it, just going to try
Speaker 2: to be honest with everybody as much as I can.
Speaker 2: I when I was on the cruise, and I told
Speaker 2: you guys, when I came back, like there was ten
Speaker 2: to twelve foot waves for like forty eight hours, and
Speaker 2: I was losing it.
Speaker 8: I was.
Speaker 2: I was kind of lose. I was coming apart at
Speaker 2: the scenes a little bit. I trying to boot flights,
Speaker 2: took some what they call drugs, and I sat on
Speaker 2: the very comfortable bet on this Princess cruise line and
Speaker 2: I put on because Courtney was sleeping. This did not
Speaker 2: bother her nearly as much. I put on Back to
Speaker 2: the Future. I had never watched Back to the Future
Speaker 2: the full movie and just paid attention to it and
Speaker 2: just gotten the full experience. And I watched Back to
Speaker 2: the Future one, and then I watched Back to the
Speaker 2: Future two. And Back to the Future two is all right,
Speaker 2: but Back to the Future one is literally a great movie.
Speaker 2: I've perfectly done, perfectly written, holds up brilliantly.
Speaker 4: When I was younger, I liked Back to the Future
Speaker 4: two more because I liked all the future stuff I want.
Speaker 2: I liked the little pizza hut in the in the.
Speaker 4: Food rehydrator, and I liked all the little gadgets they
Speaker 4: had wheel yeah, yeah, the screen where you would have
Speaker 4: all your phone calls.
Speaker 2: Some of that stuff came true. Actually, some of the
Speaker 2: predictions did. It was so anyways, let us know what
Speaker 2: you think. Is this a good idea? What should they
Speaker 2: do with the other Fast and the Furious? Right, if
Speaker 2: you're a theme park person, that's another thing we could
Speaker 2: toss out there. We want to hear from you. Send
Speaker 2: a dispatch or an email and we'll get to those momentarily.
Speaker 2: Thanks for the Gifted Subs. Sean Patrick's day The Gifted
Speaker 2: Secret Shows subs appreciate you. Somebody gobble that up on
Speaker 2: the news junky dot com right now, though, what's coming

Speaker 3: next epode? Old phrase bendelight Beckham new working phrase, make

Speaker 3: lot for just an a time. Plus Nicki Nintendo Lemon Sonic,
Speaker 3: it's fighting time. Grab your popcorn or swords. I'll find
Speaker 3: so much more coming up on the next episode.
Speaker 2: And that is coming up next on the news, Chunkie,
Speaker 2: I hope you will take a moment to tell somebody
Speaker 2: about this fine radio station, podcast or live stream, no
Speaker 2: matter how you're joined the show today. Love you for it.
Speaker 2: Right now, let's get into it. Let's do the next
Speaker 2: step episode.
Speaker 11: Because there's a lot on TV and you can't possibly
Speaker 11: keep up with all of it, even though you should,
Speaker 11: because what else are you gonna talk about?
Speaker 2: The politene They'll bring him wine. That sounds great. Nothing,
Speaker 2: It's time for the next episode with Sabrina. Hey, hold,
Speaker 2: that is right.
Speaker 3: The next episode brought to you by that mortgage guide
Speaker 3: on that Mortgage guydn dot com and the Homeowns radio
Speaker 3: show refinancing, buying your first ring home, maybe looking to
Speaker 3: start a business. That mortgage Guy Don has your back
Speaker 3: on all those things and everything in between. Start the
Speaker 3: process today by going to his website, That Mortgage Guy
Speaker 3: Don dot com.
Speaker 2: Do miss the foolc.
Speaker 3: Mortgage dot com. It was forty four years ago, time
Speaker 3: do be a flying nineteen eighty two. This guy right here,
Speaker 3: thank you, And it was on this day you bit
Speaker 3: the head off goddamn bat. Jeez, some fan through it
Speaker 3: on stage.
Speaker 2: I've never going to live that one down.
Speaker 3: He is no longer a lot. No, that main is
Speaker 3: nightmare or his purgatory is just always eating this bat.
Speaker 2: It's just bats flying over again.
Speaker 3: And of all places of rock and roll and eating
Speaker 3: a live bat by accident, did you know it was
Speaker 3: in Des Moines, Isolad no I da Ossie had to
Speaker 3: be hospitalized for rabies. He also claimed that he thought
Speaker 3: it was rubber, So double trick your bats, folks. Now
Speaker 3: let's move on to twenty twenty five and what would
Speaker 3: be another forty year anniversary with.
Speaker 8: This group.
Speaker 3: Always and Poison's fortieth anniversary tour is off.
Speaker 8: No I.
Speaker 3: Was gonna get us all tickets for it every roll.
Speaker 3: I think that's guns and roses. Well, uh, what's Poisonous
Speaker 3: is not paying Brett Michaels enough. According to reports, it
Speaker 3: was supposed to celebrate its fortieth anniversary the band Poison,
Speaker 3: but it's not happening, and supposedly all because Brett Michaels
Speaker 3: wants to be paid six hundred more than them. Okay,
Speaker 3: take a good time. Brett thinks he's a little more
Speaker 3: equal than the other guys. According to Ricky Rockett on
Speaker 3: the drums, yow, he wanted to the Lion's share of
Speaker 3: the money to the point where it makes it not
Speaker 3: possible to even do it. It's like six dollars to
Speaker 3: every one of our dollars. He can't just work that way,
Speaker 3: So I guess it's all canceled.
Speaker 2: Who else is even in the band? Ricky Rocket, I
Speaker 2: wouldn't have ge C. C. Deville is actually an amazing guitarist. Wow, Bobby,
Speaker 2: he's a really good guitarist on the bass. I don't
Speaker 2: know Bobby Doll. I could go without Bobby Doll.
Speaker 3: Ricky Rocket, who's giving all the juice in his own drums?
Speaker 2: I mean, maybe he's good. But as far as drummers
Speaker 2: with those bands, Motley Crue Tommy Lee just kind of
Speaker 2: stole it when in the Battle of those Bands with
Speaker 2: the drummers.
Speaker 3: But he also has a drum that goes like three sixty,
Speaker 3: which is cool. And a lot of people saw Wiener, Yeah,
Speaker 3: a lot of people did, which was cool. Says Finding
Speaker 3: a replacement for Brett and doing the tour without him
Speaker 3: isn't out of the question, but it's not something they
Speaker 3: want to do. That's when you end up at a
Speaker 3: theme park doing twenty minute sets twice a day.
Speaker 2: Could band six more?
Speaker 4: Did they give any like hard numbers on this because
Speaker 4: for every one dollar I make, he makes six dollars.
Speaker 2: Am I still being paid?
Speaker 3: Well that's a great question. But I guess considering the
Speaker 3: budget they were going to have for the fortieth, it
Speaker 3: was too much to put it all together.
Speaker 2: I mean, what are these other guys do? Did anybody
Speaker 2: else write Every Rose has Its Thorn? Or was it
Speaker 2: just Brett Michaels.
Speaker 3: I mean one of the original members C. C.
Speaker 2: Deville was the original guitarist's best second. Remember, I don't
Speaker 2: know if you write everything. The thing about these bands
Speaker 2: is if one person wrote all the songs, is the
Speaker 2: reason why the whole thing exists. That person should get six.
Speaker 3: Times cold write lyrics. But it was a guitar riff
Speaker 3: written by somebody else, you know, put the rock and
Speaker 3: the roll together.
Speaker 4: Well, if that's the case, Sean, if that was the case,
Speaker 4: which it's not. If that was the case, he's already
Speaker 4: getting more money just from airplay, streaming all that stuff.
Speaker 4: But on the Every Rose has its Thorn? Wikipedia page
Speaker 4: credits songwriters Brett Michael C. C. Deville, Bobby Doll and
Speaker 4: Ricky Rockett. Oh that's all of them, that's all four members.
Speaker 2: Yeah. So then if it's all four that were part
Speaker 2: of the creation of these things, then and it's different,
Speaker 2: it would be a different thing. I don't think you
Speaker 2: should get six times what they get.
Speaker 3: Maybe five, Yeah, four and a half. I feel like
Speaker 3: there's no negotiating and Ricky Rockets now just talking to
Speaker 3: the press and no word from Brett Michaels. We do
Speaker 3: have some word from Don Lemon, who's now responding to
Speaker 3: Nicki minaj and something that was not on my Bengo
Speaker 3: card for twenty twenty six.
Speaker 2: Right to Fight.
Speaker 3: Spoke earlier on the show about Don Lemon in the
Speaker 3: now trending situation sharing the footage from the Minneapolis protests
Speaker 3: that interrupted a church service led by David Easterwood. He
Speaker 3: serves as both the pastor and acting director of ISI's
Speaker 3: Saint Paul Field office. Lemon framed it as straight journalism.
Speaker 3: Nick Minaje saw it as not straight at all and
Speaker 3: went about calling him a homophobic slur. The post of
Speaker 3: Don Lemon had circulated it also overnight. Nicki minaj fired
Speaker 3: back and said, I quote Don see sucking lemon is
Speaker 3: disgusting all KapS. How dare you I want that thug
Speaker 3: in jail. You would never do that to any other religion.
Speaker 3: Lock him up and paired it with an image of
Speaker 3: Chucky the Doll. Now Don didn't respond with his own
Speaker 3: tweet storm, but instead this video that I censored and
Speaker 3: cut for time because there's a lot of dramatic pauses.
Speaker 12: Let's see what you said about responding to Nicki Minaj's unhinged,
Speaker 12: homophobic tweet about me. And usually don't respond to this stuff,
Speaker 12: but let me just say this, Nicki Minaj, stop talking
Speaker 12: about for which you know nothing about. This is out
Speaker 12: of your out of your depth, by the way, and
Speaker 12: you are a homophobic bigot. You don't care about African Americans,
Speaker 12: and you're not an African American from what I know.
Speaker 12: You are reportedly an undocumented citizen, so you should be
Speaker 12: deported under Donald Trump's rules.
Speaker 2: And the other thing is that your family members, you
Speaker 2: have one.
Speaker 12: Family member who's reportedly a sex offender, the other family
Speaker 12: member your husband or whatever sex amender is her husband,
Speaker 12: and one of them is reportedly a pedophile, and you
Speaker 12: have nerve to talk about me and what you think
Speaker 12: that I do, Nicki Minaj, nick get a life.
Speaker 2: Stop being a pick me.
Speaker 12: You should have put a pickney doll on that damn
Speaker 12: t a tunkey doll because you are nothing but a
Speaker 12: pick me.
Speaker 2: Clock that.
Speaker 3: Clock that.
Speaker 2: Talk, that talk that mean and what opportunity do I say,
Speaker 2: clock that after.
Speaker 13: Laying it down?
Speaker 3: Or if you maybe you're like running really fast and
Speaker 3: you want someone to give you your time.
Speaker 2: It's a weird move to be like, look, deporting all
Speaker 2: these people from Ice is super bad. And also Nicki
Speaker 2: Minaj should be deported from the United States of America.
Speaker 2: I think unceremoniously audio muchacho her out of here.
Speaker 3: She said, throw don lemon and jail. But they'll share
Speaker 3: a cell or something pop style.
Speaker 8: Uh.
Speaker 3: And finally, why should year a cell when you could
Speaker 3: just have this lady's clothes and other items? Oh yeah, yes,
Speaker 3: that is correct, points to Sean. Cindy lauper Is announced
Speaker 3: she will be selling items from her closet so her
Speaker 3: fans and a bid to raise money for charity. Details
Speaker 3: of the closet cleanout first announcer over the weekend reveal
Speaker 3: that the eighties pop icon is going to be selling
Speaker 3: sharing auctioning stage outfits and streetwear at a pop up

Speaker 3: Down one nine to two Orchid Street.
Speaker 4: Is there an actual, like iconic Cindy Lapper items that
Speaker 4: people would want?
Speaker 3: I think there's like a is there a jacket with
Speaker 3: frills on it from that music video or just like
Speaker 3: she wore it a lot.
Speaker 2: Yeah, Yeah, there's there's like colorful stuff that she used
Speaker 2: to wear that probably would stand out.
Speaker 3: There's a lot of stuff unworned pieces as well, And

Speaker 2: watch the National Championship game last night? You watched a
Speaker 2: much of it?
Speaker 3: No, no, I've been watching his and hers.
Speaker 2: I have to tell you one of the holy moments
Speaker 2: where I was like, well, I was wrong about that.
Speaker 2: I was, I go, oh, here we go. They're about
Speaker 2: to do the national anthem. Oh, it's the guy from
Speaker 2: from the latest season of American Idol. People are still
Speaker 2: watching American Idol. And then the guy starts singing the
Speaker 2: national anthem. Whoever that dude is, Holy cow, that guy
Speaker 2: drilled it in the bar. As soon as he got
Speaker 2: to the end of the national anthem in the bar,
Speaker 2: I was like, dude, dude drilled it. Whoever? That dude
Speaker 2: is the guy from the last season of American Idol
Speaker 2: who sang at the halftime for the National Championship game.
Speaker 2: Kudos to you, my friend. You have a beautiful voice.
Speaker 2: And I tried to downgrade you because I thought no
Speaker 2: one cares about American Idol anymore, which they don't really.
Speaker 2: Most people don't really tune into that as well. Jamal
Speaker 2: Roberts bro Jamal Roberts absolutely banger voice. I'm just really
Speaker 2: really good, so shouts out friend. All right, when we
Speaker 2: come back, people are leaving work. Why why, We'll tell
Speaker 2: you what's going on there. I got some more deals
Speaker 2: to make on let's make a deal kind of day here,
Speaker 2: and also a very very surprising story about some new
Speaker 2: technolog that I think everybody needs to know about certainly
Speaker 2: before you buy another phone. So don't miss this. That
Speaker 2: and all the rest is coming up next on the
Speaker 2: news Junkie, Let's make a deal. I'm making deals left
Speaker 2: and right today. Baby. I think maybe we could do
Speaker 2: something to bring back some rationality and sense in the
Speaker 2: United States of America, where it seems to be lacking.
Speaker 2: I want to make a deal. I want to make
Speaker 2: a deal. And one of them is related to this
Speaker 2: continued insanity that we see where people are like finding
Speaker 2: ice officers under rocks and shadows everywhere. You censored this
Speaker 2: thing I sent over right Sea Lane. Yeah, I think
Speaker 2: I had lots of bad words. No, there was only one,
Speaker 2: but oh really, that's impressive. There was one bad word
Speaker 2: that they censored. They also self censored the word predator
Speaker 2: a lot, because you know, we have to do that
Speaker 2: these days to feed the algorithm.
Speaker 3: They don't have like a fun word like they.
Speaker 4: Have predator or something like that. They should have stupid.
Speaker 4: It boils me all the time. But anyway, uh, the
Speaker 4: particular words that they had, who doesn't say that was
Speaker 4: all the time boils me. It boils my blood. It's
Speaker 4: continuous bottling, you know, it literally bottles up their mind.
Speaker 4: But no, they somebody said bull ass in it and
Speaker 4: they censored bull. They didn't say to the word.
Speaker 2: They said, oh god, what what radio station do these
Speaker 2: people work at?
Speaker 5: All?
Speaker 2: Right, So this has all been cleaned up and brought
Speaker 2: to you. You might have seen this going viral on
Speaker 2: all sorts of platforms on the internets all over the
Speaker 2: social medias that you know and you love and you
Speaker 2: hate and all the rest. That one, that one, that one,
Speaker 2: And it's these people who once again and thought they
Speaker 2: found some Ice officers, just like they saw the guy
Speaker 2: with the rented car and they thought he was an
Speaker 2: Ice officer, just how they saw the dude in the
Speaker 2: Camo jacket and they thought he was an Ice officer,
Speaker 2: And just like they thought one of their own protesters
Speaker 2: was an Ice officer, just like they thought the two
Speaker 2: coating bros at the store because there had been some
Speaker 2: online report of ice interactions in this this restaurant where
Speaker 2: they were eating. They thought they were ice. They're seeing
Speaker 2: ice in all the shadows, and I want to make
Speaker 2: a deal on this. But first here is what's going on.
Speaker 2: This was people at this cafe harassing these folks who
Speaker 2: they thought were ICE officers, but they weren't.
Speaker 3: Let's listen, hey, Ice, We're not We know you are,
Speaker 3: so Ice Border Patrol.
Speaker 2: See. I love this. It's like, we know you are.
Speaker 8: Like.
Speaker 2: So they asked them, we know you're with ICE, Like,
Speaker 2: we're not with ICE, and we know you are. You
Speaker 2: were Border but you're you're lying about this with Ice cool.
Speaker 2: We know you are cool? So I order patrol. Were
Speaker 2: Internet Crimes gives Children? Oh yeah, we said, we're with
Speaker 2: Internet Crimes against children? Which is this like some YouTuber
Speaker 2: thing or is this like a legit organization?
Speaker 4: And I don't know whether they're they have any government sanction,
Speaker 4: but they are apparently a group that hunts online predators.
Speaker 2: Or with IKAK. He says, we're Internet against children and
Speaker 2: he said, we huntlne we hunt online predators. That's what
Speaker 2: I said. We we're with internet crimes against children. Internet
Speaker 2: crimes gives children. Oh yeah, cool windows. You said you're
Speaker 2: hunting online predators, and all of you have tinted windows.
Speaker 2: That's a new symptom that you're if you're a bad guys.
Speaker 2: If you're a bad guy, you have tinted windows. And
Speaker 2: so that's clearly that's an indicator that you're up to something.
Speaker 2: That's what they're saying, respect whatever you do. I like
Speaker 2: that too. The guy goes, we don't respect whatever you do. Like,
Speaker 2: could you entertain for a second that maybe you're wrong,
Speaker 2: Like maybe you're are wrong and they're really going after
Speaker 2: child predators. Whatever it is you do, we don't. We
Speaker 2: don't respect it at all. Like, hold on, we stop
Speaker 2: people from sexually abusing little children. Don't care. Don't respect it.
Speaker 2: We don't respect it. We don't lock it at all.
Speaker 2: We don't respect whatever you do. We don't. We don't
Speaker 2: believe you.
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's not it.
Speaker 2: Bromart at noon on a Wednesday Friday. Yeah, okay, cool,
Speaker 2: see it too. Bye bye. These people are deranged man
Speaker 2: stupid people. He said, they're getting all their license plates.
Speaker 2: That's a new one. That's a new full face on
Speaker 2: the internet. That's embarrassing, full face on the internet, he says,
Speaker 2: that's embarrassing.
Speaker 3: So what happens after they get into their car they
Speaker 3: move on to the next place.
Speaker 2: What the first thing that they do is they take
Speaker 2: pictures of the license plates of these cars and they
Speaker 2: go on these websites and report them as ICE vehicles,
Speaker 2: which is becoming a problem because they're doing this with
Speaker 2: the water rental vehicles, and then families are renting the
Speaker 2: vehicles afterwards, and people are chasing around the families and
Speaker 2: their vehicles ICE and saying, you're ICE officers, what are
Speaker 2: you doing right now? I mean, it's just jobs. It's
Speaker 2: maybe some of them don't I don't know. It's it's
Speaker 2: all very dumb to me. And let's make a deal
Speaker 2: on this is here's the best way to channel things.
Speaker 2: And maybe you disagree. I don't care, but this was
Speaker 2: the deal that I'd be willing to make. If you
Speaker 2: disagree with what's happening in this country, if you disagree
Speaker 2: with the president, if you disagree with ICE, if you
Speaker 2: disagree with what's happen in your state, if you disagree
Speaker 2: with what's happening with your local government, find like minded people.
Speaker 2: And try to win elections. Okay, this is how the
Speaker 2: system works. If you think X, Y, and Z are
Speaker 2: wrong with this country and you want to fix them immediately,
Speaker 2: the correct way to respond to that. You can protest
Speaker 2: or whatever, as long as you're like in some public place,
Speaker 2: not being terrible and breaking the law. But if you
Speaker 2: want to change that, go find like minded people, have
Speaker 2: a popular platform, win elections, and elect people who will
Speaker 2: change things in the United States of America to be
Speaker 2: more like you want to see this country. That's how
Speaker 2: this is supposed to work. That's the deal that we're
Speaker 2: supposed to have. Not that you lose and then you
Speaker 2: just go nuclear because you're on some moral crusade. Go
Speaker 2: find people who you agree with. The midterm elections are
Speaker 2: this year. Go find all of the people that you
Speaker 2: agree with, lift up their campaigns, say this is a
Speaker 2: better vision for America. We want these people elected immediately.
Speaker 2: You will have a power shift and we'll probably see that.
Speaker 2: We'll probably see that in November of this year with
Speaker 2: a midterm election. Put your energy towards that, putting your
Speaker 2: energy towards chasing around randos, including people who may or
Speaker 2: may not be chasing after child Predators is such a
Speaker 2: complete and total larp. It's a waste of time. It's
Speaker 2: a larp. You're pretending out there like you're doing some
Speaker 2: giant moral crusade. I don't know what's gone wrong with
Speaker 2: a lot of people here, but the ideas should be
Speaker 2: that you find people who will right the country and
Speaker 2: who agree with you, and get them more votes. Right,
Speaker 2: get them more votes. That's how democracy works. That's the
Speaker 2: deal on the table, and we'll see if you're take it.
Speaker 2: I might have been wrong here because it says here.
Speaker 4: ICAC most commonly refers to Internet Crimes against Children Task Force,
Speaker 4: a national network of state and local law enforce horsement agencies,
Speaker 4: which makes it sound like they are I don't know
Speaker 4: what authority they have, but they are at least affiliated
Speaker 4: with government law enforcement, not.
Speaker 2: Not just some YouTubers. At least right, I mean, that's
Speaker 2: what this says.
Speaker 4: The National network of state and law a local law
Speaker 4: enforcement agencies fighting online child exploitation and abuse. And then
Speaker 4: there's also a list of other things ICAC can stand for,
Speaker 4: which has nothing to do with it.
Speaker 2: Right, So, whatever it is, it's part of a fever
Speaker 2: dream where you see the bad guys, the evil people
Speaker 2: all over the place, and it's just more divisive, negative
Speaker 2: stuff that is driving people up a wall. It's it's
Speaker 2: causing i think, widespread mental illness in big sectors of
Speaker 2: this country, and it's taking away from your experience that
Speaker 2: is literally a once in a lifetime one on planet Earth.
Speaker 2: Have fun, enjoy yourself, fight for what you think is right,
Speaker 2: but do it in a way where you you're gonna
Speaker 2: win the next election and people in charge will change
Speaker 2: things to be the way that you want them to.
Speaker 2: Or there is a possibility that most people don't agree
Speaker 2: with you, all right, And that's how democracies work. If
Speaker 2: you get out voted, if the other people win, things
Speaker 2: go in a different direction. You don't get to just
Speaker 2: always have it your way, no matter what. You gotta
Speaker 2: make it a popular movement at least. All right, we'll
Speaker 2: see what you think about all this. Send a dispatch
Speaker 2: over at thenewsjunkie dot com. I don't know if those
Speaker 2: people were like real deal actually going after pedophile people,
Speaker 2: but it didn't seem like they were ice. Once again,
Speaker 2: it seemed like it was just some random person that
Speaker 2: was being chased down. There are people protesting today, I
Speaker 2: guess not going to work or leaving work. I don't
Speaker 2: know if everybody will make it through the show today.
Speaker 2: Maybe they'll pick up on this protest. There are people
Speaker 2: leaving work today or no, I'm pretty activated in my community.
Speaker 2: There are people who are leaving work today. Let's see
Speaker 2: what's happening.
Speaker 6: Tens of thousands of Americans are expected to walk off
Speaker 6: of their jobs and out of schools to protest President
Speaker 6: Trump's first year back in office and his policy.
Speaker 3: That's what patients Dry and Bass joins us from downtown.
Speaker 2: This is a one year anniversary.
Speaker 3: This protests are.
Speaker 2: Planned for today and Ryan.
Speaker 12: Today's walkouts are expected across all fifty states.
Speaker 2: What are demonstrators hoping for here? I haven't seen any
Speaker 2: of this actually happening. Ask you. You guys got CNN
Speaker 2: there on at HQ in the studio, is there, like
Speaker 2: are there protests going on that they've been showing or
Speaker 2: no full commercial? So just commercial right now? Okay, because
Speaker 2: they're saying like nationwide walkouts protests the first year, but
Speaker 2: I haven't seen anybody actually do it literally.
Speaker 8: Just walk out, walk out of work, walk out of school,
Speaker 8: don't shop all in protests.
Speaker 2: Chrisident Trump's first year back in office.
Speaker 14: It is a coordinated nationwide call to action, with five
Speaker 14: walkouts playing across the Tampa Bay area, including here behind
Speaker 14: me at Tampa's downtown City Hall.
Speaker 2: Another deal I can make today is if you were
Speaker 2: saying walk out of school, if you're a student, no,
Speaker 2: get your ass back in s. Well, we can talk.
Speaker 2: When you learn how to read and write, then we
Speaker 2: can talk about other things. Then we can talk about
Speaker 2: interactions with like political stuff.
Speaker 3: The greatest group seniors in high school. If you tell
Speaker 3: them there's a walk up, they don't complete the sentence.
Speaker 3: They're like, yeah, I'm just going to walk out, skips class.
Speaker 2: I've done the same things. I've done the same thing.
Speaker 2: When they're like, we're doing everybody just walking out for this,
Speaker 2: and you go, all right, here we go, and everybody
Speaker 2: would be taking part in some grand movement that we
Speaker 2: none of us really understood at all. I want kids
Speaker 2: to learn how to read. I want them to learn
Speaker 2: how to write. I want them to learn about history,
Speaker 2: actual history. Before they get into all that, let's keep
Speaker 2: it away from the schools. Let's keep it to the adults.
Speaker 2: If they're going to do it, but are you doing it?
Speaker 2: Maybe let us know a sentence a dispatch today at
Speaker 2: thenewsjunkie dot com. A couple of emails. Some of you
Speaker 2: are strange. This person, Andy says I would date a
Speaker 2: Nazi supporter if she was totally hot. The hot take dating,
Speaker 2: he said, it wouldn't turn him off. This is somebody
Speaker 2: who's had that hook up.
Speaker 8: This is.
Speaker 2: A kester, says junkies. I'm a pretty big hockey fan.
Speaker 2: The playing service is called rink or ice in the
Speaker 2: arena can also be called a barn. Oh, I've never
Speaker 2: heard that before the ice Hockey World. Okay, yeah, at
Speaker 2: the barn, he says. Goalie fights are really rare because
Speaker 2: they don't even interact, so I'm not even sure how
Speaker 2: the beef can get started, he said.
Speaker 3: The internet next.
Speaker 2: The only one he could think of was nineteen ninety
Speaker 2: seven NHL season where there were games between the Red
Speaker 2: Wings and the Avalanche where there was some goalie fights.
Speaker 2: It was one of the most famous fights in NHL history.
Speaker 2: He says, very cool. A lot of people you emailing
Speaker 2: about or who are emailing about that particular topic, thank
Speaker 2: you for the extra information, especially on sports related to stuff,
Speaker 2: and I appreciate it. Let's see what else we have,
Speaker 2: I've got more dispatches. Have we done any dispatches? Let's
Speaker 2: do one. Here's hey there talking about the Universal Studios announcement.
Speaker 2: It says, I'm disappointed, disappointed about the Fast and Furious
Speaker 2: roller coaster.
Speaker 15: Okay, I'm disappointed, I'm annoyed. I think many people suspected
Speaker 15: that Hollywood Rip Ride Rocket at Universal Studios would be
Speaker 15: replaced by Fast and the Furious Hollywood Drift. But I
Speaker 15: was really keeping my fingers crossed that it would be
Speaker 15: something amazing like Back to the Future roller coaster.
Speaker 3: Can you imagine if you, yeah, like some a.
Speaker 15: Ride that went eighty eight miles per hour.
Speaker 3: I don't even know if that's possible. That amazing.
Speaker 15: I can't stand when they do this cookie cutter and
Speaker 15: they duplicate attractions at different theme parks. It's like it
Speaker 15: gives you less of a reason to want to go
Speaker 15: to other destinations.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 15: I'm hoping one day at Epic Universe they'll open a
Speaker 15: portal to the past where they revive some of the
Speaker 15: great attractions from the past, like Jaws, Back to the Future,
Speaker 15: the O G King Kong.
Speaker 3: I think that would be loved, so incredible and so.
Speaker 2: Popular that would be cool. I know defunk Land has
Speaker 2: been talking about doing that forever virtually.
Speaker 3: I've just the Fast and the Furious still has this
Speaker 3: kind of pull me too.
Speaker 2: Honestly, you're not wrong. Have you ever met a Fast
Speaker 2: and the Furious fan?
Speaker 11: Uh?
Speaker 3: Tall, white, kind of hair, tight shirt.
Speaker 2: I mean, I don't know. I've never met any of them.
Speaker 2: I don't know who's into these movies. It's just like Avatar.
Speaker 2: I've never met a person's like I'm the biggest Avatar.
Speaker 2: I love the blue people like I've never These are
Speaker 2: fandoms that I don't crash into. I don't I don't
Speaker 2: see them out there, but I do agree with you.
Speaker 2: Hey there, I think that would be cool. Although I
Speaker 2: think a Fast and the Furious roller coaster could be fun.
Speaker 2: I just wonder what they're gonna do with the other thing.
Speaker 2: I hope they hope they change it up a little bit.
Speaker 2: Maybe one more can do it.
Speaker 10: Here.
Speaker 2: Let's see, here's somebody saying Dingo is saying dating is crazy?
Speaker 7: Right now?
Speaker 11: What up news junkie Dingo? Here is one chime in
Speaker 11: real quick about the dating stuff.
Speaker 8: Man.
Speaker 11: I tell you what, I've been married for a bunch
Speaker 11: of years now, and I live in a house divided. Oh,
Speaker 11: and honestly, we figure out a way to make it work,
Speaker 11: and I just have to keep a low profile.
Speaker 2: When I meant, the in law's house probably a better idea,
Speaker 2: Probably a decent move, if you can do it. I
Speaker 2: saw something the other day that maybe so sad. It
Speaker 2: was this young woman filming herself and she was like
Speaker 2: goating her mom and she's like, did you see this video?
Speaker 2: Do you see this video? Do you agree with me now?
Speaker 2: Do you agree with me now? And they were talking
Speaker 2: about who knows, I saw it, It doesn't matter whatever
Speaker 2: the thing of the day is. The political people think right,
Speaker 2: they were talking about whatever the thing of the day was,
Speaker 2: and the mom's like, can we not talk about this?
Speaker 2: Can I don't want to talk about these things with
Speaker 2: you because you'll threaten to not let me see my
Speaker 2: grandkids anymore. And I'm like, damn, that's so brutal that
Speaker 2: we have like divisions happening where people cannot agree to disagree,
Speaker 2: where people are like like a mother would keep grandkids
Speaker 2: away from a grandmother because of these like divisions, Like
Speaker 2: that sucks that. I maybe that's just me, but I
Speaker 2: I don't like that I tise this earlier, So let's
Speaker 2: work it in here, and let's do it before we
Speaker 2: get any dispatches from the Samsung people. I don't even
Speaker 2: know if this is Samsung. Yeah it is, Yeah, well no, no,
Speaker 2: it's it's the real Me phone. I've never heard of
Speaker 2: a real me phone, but a new piece of technology,
Speaker 2: the real Me. Let's look up the price on this
Speaker 2: real Me P four.
Speaker 3: Power five G and all spell like you think it's Bill.
Speaker 2: Real Me is all together, real Me ri e a LM.
Speaker 2: And then it's the P four power five G phone.
Speaker 2: And this thing has a sealane. You might know what
Speaker 2: this means. A ten thousand MIAH battery, ten thousand and
Speaker 2: one ten thousand and one mh battery, which this has
Speaker 2: translated into real life usage. It gives you this phone,
Speaker 2: this new phone will give you nine hundred and thirty
Speaker 2: two hours of standby power, thirty two point five hours
Speaker 2: of YouTube streaming, and one hundred and eighty five hours
Speaker 2: of listening to music on a on a full battery charge,
Speaker 2: which is that's pretty good.
Speaker 3: Yeah, and a regular usage. If you're not one of
Speaker 3: the YouTubers that watch us for over a day, we
Speaker 3: say you could for a week long not have to
Speaker 3: charge your phone.
Speaker 2: That's crazy. That would that's kind of a game changer
Speaker 2: if you could have a charge for like a week long.
Speaker 2: Sounds heavy heavy? Are you guys with me on this,
Speaker 2: aren't you? Does it? Does that pique your interest? Interests
Speaker 2: way more than a phone that folds? Yeah, I mean
Speaker 2: I don't.
Speaker 4: Care about a phone that folds at all. I don't
Speaker 4: see where I see the folding phone and go I
Speaker 4: have to have that. But I also don't find myself
Speaker 4: in a place where I can't charge my phone very often.
Speaker 3: I do still, I have like four external batteries.
Speaker 2: All right, you bring it with you. I mean, I
Speaker 2: just would love to have the peace of mind of
Speaker 2: being like this is charged. It's good for four days.
Speaker 2: That would be crazy.
Speaker 4: And then there's this new thing that they're doing where
Speaker 4: they're like, hey, actually it's better for the battery if
Speaker 4: you never charge it beyond eighty percent, it'll last much longer.
Speaker 2: And I'm like, what not like that? No, No, no,
Speaker 2: I want to just plug it in all the time
Speaker 2: and then then I'll have peace of mind. What do
Speaker 2: you think, folks? Would you get one of these? The
Speaker 2: real med P four Power five G. Do we have
Speaker 2: a price on that or is it India? It's going
Speaker 2: to be launched in India. Okay, I mean that's pretty impressive.
Speaker 5: What do you think?
Speaker 2: Let us know, Send us a dispatch. There's your Let's
Speaker 2: make a deal to the tech companies. I don't care
Speaker 2: about folding stuff in half. Give me a battery that
Speaker 2: lasts a week. That's what I want. Go in that direction.
Speaker 2: Let us know what you think. Send a dispatch or
Speaker 2: an email. Tips at the Newsjunkie dot com. Back in
Speaker 2: a second, we're getting teed up for jury duty. Robocops
Speaker 2: are hitting the streets. We'll talk about that in jury duty.
Speaker 2: And a big change, A big change for the state
Speaker 2: of Florida. What's happening. Wait till you hear this. That's
Speaker 2: coming up next in the News Junkie. A big change
Speaker 2: for Florida in just a moment here. But I want
Speaker 2: to tell you another Let's make a deal I have.
Speaker 2: I'd like to make a deal with Hollywood. I'd absolutely
Speaker 2: like to make a deal with Hollywood. And the deal
Speaker 2: I'd like to make is if you make more movies
Speaker 2: like this, I'll go see more movies. Okay, if you
Speaker 2: make more movies that are like just interesting, general targeted
Speaker 2: movies that seem like a fun premise. I will go
Speaker 2: pay and see these movies in the theater. Let's make
Speaker 2: a deal on this sort of content, because next week
Speaker 2: a movie is going to be released January thirtieth, it's
Speaker 2: like ten days from now, there's a movie coming out
Speaker 2: called Send Help that Courtney was showing me and I
Speaker 2: was like, this sounds awesome. And it's like there's a
Speaker 2: plane crash and the only survivors are this woman and
Speaker 2: her boss that she hates. Oh, and like they detest
Speaker 2: each other, right, but then they're on this island and
Speaker 2: they have to figure out how to survive just by themselves.
Speaker 2: And it's a horror comedy Rachel McAdams, and it's got
Speaker 2: Rachel McAdams, who's awesome. It's got the guy and it
Speaker 2: is Dylan O'Brien, which he's a lot of stuff. The
Speaker 2: guy who makes the movie is Sam Raimi, who Sam
Speaker 2: Raimi has made a lot of good stuff. If you've
Speaker 2: seen The Gift, The Gift is.
Speaker 3: Awesome twenty eight or some other horror franchise Evil Dead.
Speaker 2: He did, Yes, So the Spider Man trilogy between two
Speaker 2: thousand and two and two thousand and seven, A simple plan,
Speaker 2: which the first one was was good, the gift. Loved
Speaker 2: the gift so good. Drag Me to Hell he did.
Speaker 10: And.
Speaker 2: A bunch of other stuff that he's he's done a
Speaker 2: the years, and he's made this movie and it's called
Speaker 2: Send Help. And I'm like, these movies are great. They're not.
Speaker 2: They're not these like big bloated, massive Hollywood productions with
Speaker 2: blue swimming people and flying animals and creatures. It's just
Speaker 2: like a well written hopefully hopefully I haven't seen you
Speaker 2: what a well written, interesting premise. And I know you
Speaker 2: guys will compare it to a million different things, But
Speaker 2: to me, at least, there's some level of uniqueness to it.
Speaker 2: And I like that and I will to see you
Speaker 2: the same thing.
Speaker 3: The dark comedies lately, I like, it's still in action, scary,
Speaker 3: you know, pop out, you think about it or dream
Speaker 3: about it, but then there's some funny moments. Right at
Speaker 3: this point in society, there's not just that one true genre.
Speaker 3: You can also mix it up and have it fall
Speaker 3: under the umbrella.
Speaker 2: Why are there more of those horror comedies like those
Speaker 2: are fun together?
Speaker 3: Yeah, but there are some people that are like, this
Speaker 3: is the way Hollywood works. It must be funny or scary.
Speaker 2: Not both. But Scream was kind of both.
Speaker 3: Did know, like a parody or satire even though they
Speaker 3: had the blood, blood and.
Speaker 2: Gore kind of that was that seems more like not
Speaker 2: another teen movie to me, or those ones that were
Speaker 2: like a little like more directly parodies. Scary movie was.
Speaker 4: Directly a parody of a bunch of those different kinds.
Speaker 3: Of But like Megan's Body with that had a lot
Speaker 3: of funny to it and a lot of ridiculous, but
Speaker 3: there are some scary parts.
Speaker 8: That's what I love.
Speaker 2: I mean, I look, I like all sorts of different stuff.
Speaker 2: But one of the things that I think maybe is
Speaker 2: overdone or is underdone rather is that genre. I think
Speaker 2: that genre is fun, and I think these kind of
Speaker 2: unique movies are what will hit with a larger theater
Speaker 2: going on audience. Now, I don't think this is going
Speaker 2: to be like Avatar levels successful at the box office,
Speaker 2: but I think it will make money and I think
Speaker 2: you'll be surprised how many people want to see movies
Speaker 2: like this. For instance, when Weapons came out last year,
Speaker 2: Oh boy, did people in the industry know that Weapons
Speaker 2: was going to be a big movie, so much so
Speaker 2: that Jordan Peel, who now just buys movies and then
Speaker 2: releases them and I don't know what he's actually doing anymore,
Speaker 2: but Jordan Peele was like, oh, I gotta get Weapons.
Speaker 2: I got this. This is going to be like my
Speaker 2: return to favor with the movie going public movie. I
Speaker 2: gotta get Weapons. And he tried to win it, but
Speaker 2: somebody else out bit him on that movie. And that
Speaker 2: was one of the biggest stunners of last year at
Speaker 2: the box office. That movie made a boatload of money
Speaker 2: and was huge. And I think, look this up. I
Speaker 2: don't want to get this wrong. I think Jordan Peele
Speaker 2: ended up buying the movie him see if he wants
Speaker 2: attached to that because.
Speaker 3: The one with the Wayne's brother Yes, and.
Speaker 2: And by the way, that movie I heard was terrible,
Speaker 2: but I heard the Wayne's brother guy is phenomenal in it.
Speaker 3: I heard the thing like, it looks so good, like
Speaker 3: if you were just looking at it. But everything else
Speaker 3: kind of a drag.
Speaker 2: But that's what they did. And they did the same thing.
Speaker 2: He bought a monkey Man, which is a good movie.
Speaker 2: Monkey Man was a fun movie and interesting. He bought
Speaker 2: that because it was incredibly controversial in India. I think
Speaker 2: where yeah, where it was originating from. It was incredibly
Speaker 2: controversial in India and they didn't want to release it
Speaker 2: on the streaming platforms there, and so he purchased the
Speaker 2: rights to it. But that's what he does now. I
Speaker 2: think more people want stuff like this, Send help. What's
Speaker 2: the one where it's the woman's wedding night and she
Speaker 2: has to stay alive or something?
Speaker 3: You're talking about?
Speaker 2: Yes, somebody the dad.
Speaker 3: Yeah I am black, but I know what you're talking about.
Speaker 2: They're like hunting her around. It's like around this old
Speaker 2: mansion and like that one was again not the most
Speaker 2: expensive movie to make, but people dug it as a
Speaker 2: good ready or not? There you go, okay, ready or not?
Speaker 2: Like I think there's more appetite for these movies, Hollywood,
Speaker 2: Let's do this. Let's make a deal. Okay, let's see
Speaker 2: what we got here. We do have a lot of
Speaker 2: people chiming in on the show. I have been quite
Speaker 2: bad about playing Dispatches today, and here's our friend insecure
Speaker 2: Walras telling us a story about somebody who loves fast
Speaker 2: and furious movies. Okay, that works.
Speaker 16: Sean you ask who likes The Fast and the Furious, Well,
Speaker 16: let me tell you a story. I was once a
Speaker 16: big fan of the show Roswell. It was on the
Speaker 16: WB in the very late nineties and or early two thousands,
Speaker 16: one of the two. It eventually moved with the upn
Speaker 16: But anyways, I was a big fan, and I found
Speaker 16: out there was an IRC chat room on the fanfum
Speaker 16: page called rashdown dot com for the TV show Roswell.
Speaker 16: I wound up befriending a girl who was in that
Speaker 16: i r C chat room. We started talking, dating and
Speaker 16: eventually got engaged. She loved The Fast and the Furious. She,
Speaker 16: like many of the people I knew back then, wrote
Speaker 16: fan fiction. A lot of people wrote weird fan fiction.
Speaker 16: I know a lot of lesbians that like to write
Speaker 16: weird slash fan fiction, where like the members of InSync
Speaker 16: all loved each other and turned into hamsters and all
Speaker 16: kinds of weird.
Speaker 2: Did you say turned into hamsters. Well, that wasn't a twist.
Speaker 4: That was sing and dance after they became hansters, because
Speaker 4: like that is based on fan fiction.
Speaker 2: Yes, it is from what Twilight I think. Yes, there's
Speaker 2: been a couple of breakthroughs like that, and Twilight.
Speaker 3: I believe was based on my chemical romance lead singer.
Speaker 3: Uh yes, I mean I believe being I.
Speaker 2: Know that you're right about the fifty Shades of Gray thing,
Speaker 2: because I remember when that came out, people like, whoa
Speaker 2: if you can do this with fan fiction. There's so
Speaker 2: much of this content out there. There's like hundreds of
Speaker 2: Harry Potter books that are done by fan fit people
Speaker 2: that are literally top notch stuff, but really really well written,
Speaker 2: high quality stuff.
Speaker 3: Hollywood's like, no, we're just going to reboot that one
Speaker 3: movie four times.
Speaker 2: Yeah, number number six of this franchise, number seven, back
Speaker 2: to them. This girl I dated was not like that.
Speaker 16: She preferred to write normal fan fiction, but it was
Speaker 16: very very much about the Fast and the Furious.
Speaker 2: She had one story. It was like a novel. She
Speaker 2: was like eighty five chapters into this thing.
Speaker 3: Eighty five got too much.
Speaker 2: And she loved that.
Speaker 16: She loved Vin Diesel with very few clothes on. I
Speaker 16: tell you right now, that wasn't me. They love me
Speaker 16: at all. Long story short, After about six seven years
Speaker 16: we broke up six but she loved Fast and the Furious.
Speaker 16: I can tell you of at least one person that does.
Speaker 2: All right, thank you and secure Walris pop quiz hotshots
Speaker 2: pop quiz. What is the Florida state bird? What is
Speaker 2: the Florida state bird?
Speaker 3: Not flamingo?
Speaker 2: Nope, it's not the flamingo. It is not something like
Speaker 2: it's something so common. Not the tit mouse.
Speaker 3: No, no, I should it is no snow It is
Speaker 3: a northern does make sense?
Speaker 2: Is your clue? Northern blank mockingbird? Yes, it's a northern mockingbird.
Speaker 2: That's actually right, I've got a right for real, it's
Speaker 2: a It's a northern mocking bird. It's been the state
Speaker 2: bird in Florida since nineteen twenty seven, and a state
Speaker 2: representative by the name of Jim Mooney says, this is stupid.
Speaker 2: We should have a flamingo as our state bird in
Speaker 2: the state of Florida. Isn't a southern bird at least, right?
Speaker 3: But dude, we've only seen what I've only seen one
Speaker 3: flamingo in the wild, have you, guys?
Speaker 2: I don't know if I have.
Speaker 3: I mean, I almost cause an accident on a freeway
Speaker 3: because I'm like, that's a.
Speaker 2: That should be a requirement. Are flamingos out there in
Speaker 2: the wild in Florida? That should be like a definite
Speaker 2: work require speak of one, but there's at least one
Speaker 2: out there.
Speaker 8: Now.
Speaker 3: Let's you know, I think the state bird should be
Speaker 3: attached to what bird you would see when in that state.
Speaker 2: Yeah, flamingo would be much more representative of Florida when
Speaker 2: I think, like flash some Florida items in front of me, Lotto, flatto, beaches,
Speaker 2: you know, all these things associate with Florida. It's not
Speaker 2: about where I am or anything, like what do I
Speaker 2: think of? What I think Florida? I think beach is
Speaker 2: big time because we're a peninsula. And I think of
Speaker 2: theme parks, you know, because Orlando's dominant. Obviously I think
Speaker 2: of I think you think of things that you think
Speaker 2: about oranges, right, but I don't think of a northern
Speaker 2: mocking bird for God's day?
Speaker 8: No, but.
Speaker 3: Really change it up. Alligator with wings or maybe just alligator.
Speaker 2: Has to be something real, it has Why do we
Speaker 2: it it's birds because it's the state bird.
Speaker 3: Well it's change it out there, reptile.
Speaker 2: Let us know what you think. Should it be the
Speaker 2: northern mocking bird? I don't mean to run down this option,
Speaker 2: but it's stupid. Or should it be the flamingo that's
Speaker 2: how you alter the audience's respond Should it be this
Speaker 2: stupid thing or this the flamingos seems better? But let
Speaker 2: us know what you think. Jury Duty is coming up
Speaker 2: next on the news Junkie. I saw from the Michelin
Speaker 2: Guide people that they released the seven best sandwiches in
Speaker 2: all of North America. I don't know why they chose seven,
Speaker 2: but like, that's what they picked. They picked the seven
Speaker 2: best sandwiches in America, and two of them were cheese stags,
Speaker 2: which what's the cheeseteak battle in Philly? It's Gino's is
Speaker 2: one of them? In and Pats Okay, neither one of those.
Speaker 2: It's Dallas Sandro's. Dallas Sandro's in Philadelphia. They said it
Speaker 2: was one of the seven best sandwiches in North America.
Speaker 2: And then the Compechiano Torta at La eighty nine in
Speaker 2: Mexico City.
Speaker 3: Why wouldn't they spread out the type of.
Speaker 2: Sandwich they really like? Cheesecakes the cheeseteak cheeseteak excuse me,
Speaker 2: served at Fred's Meat and Bread in Atlanta, which is bread? Yeah,
Speaker 2: I like that. The Italiano in Lardon in Chicago, which
Speaker 2: I'm not familiar with either, the Lamb Pieda in a
Speaker 2: restaurant called Yellow at Washington, d C. The Mavalletta Butcher
Speaker 2: in New Orleans. Yeah, pita doesn't seem mega SANDWICHI but yeah.
Speaker 2: And then the Pombazzo de car at a place in Denver.
Speaker 2: And I cannot believe that the media noce at Auto'shidive
Speaker 2: did not make the list because in my estimation, I
Speaker 2: know we got some some fans over there.
Speaker 3: I can name, say seventeen if the best sandwiches just
Speaker 3: here in Central.
Speaker 2: Florida, A lot of stuff. We got a lot of stuff.
Speaker 2: There was like an explosion in restaurants within the last
Speaker 2: ten years where they just did like simple stuff and
Speaker 2: they make great sandwiches, and I love that.
Speaker 3: I think the bread is the biggest part of all
Speaker 3: of that.
Speaker 2: What's the key thing what makes it great bread?
Speaker 3: It has to be a good bite, even if it's
Speaker 3: getting toasted. I don't want to just have it all
Speaker 3: bread or it's gonna break my teeth.
Speaker 2: It's got to be like a lot of times, the
Speaker 2: best ones will partner with a local bakery and they'll
Speaker 2: get like something real special that comes in every day
Speaker 2: fresh my mouth water. God, man, there's a lot of
Speaker 2: good options out there. What should have been on the list.

Speaker 2: say a shooter is at large after a judge and
Speaker 2: his wife and we're shot at their home in Indiana.
Speaker 2: Let's see the details because News we got a pretty
Speaker 2: good story on this, says please are searching for a
Speaker 2: shooter after a judge and his wife were wounded at
Speaker 2: their Indiana home. It happened two seventeen pm Eastern time.
Speaker 2: On Sunday, they found the judge, Steve Meyer, year veteran
Speaker 2: of typical New Superior Court Io, and his wife injured,
Speaker 2: they said. When they were approached for comment, the police
Speaker 2: said this remains an active and ongoing investigation. The shootings
Speaker 2: have raised widespread concern for the judge and his wife,
Speaker 2: and more widely about the safety of American judges. US
Speaker 2: Supreme Court justices have spoken out against the threats of
Speaker 2: violence that besieged the court in twenty twenty two, including
Speaker 2: there was a guy who got real close to trying
Speaker 2: to kill Chief Justice John Roberts. I mean, there's a
Speaker 2: lot of crazy people out there. They said. The judge
Speaker 2: was treated for an arm injury and his wife for
Speaker 2: a hip injury. Both are in stable condition. But they
Speaker 2: don't know exactly what was going on here and why
Speaker 2: these people may have been targeted. But it was a
Speaker 2: judge that was shot, and we'll see if there's any
Speaker 2: information that comes in in an addition to that over
Speaker 2: from the Indian art authorities. Uh, what else we got here? Oh,
Speaker 2: Timothy Bussfield, who've been following This guy is not a
Speaker 2: household name, but I I guess he's from the cleaning Lady.
Speaker 2: This is it a series?
Speaker 4: The Cleaning Lady was the one that he's in trouble
Speaker 4: for and the one that he was a director, producer
Speaker 4: or something one of those.
Speaker 3: Yeah, maybe both the very familiar face. It was back
Speaker 3: in like the nineties in random roles.
Speaker 2: He was in the West Wing a bit. Yeah. Well,
Speaker 2: he was going to be in this new Amazon MGM
Speaker 2: film called You Deserve each Other, and they have announced
Speaker 2: that they're completely editing him out of it.
Speaker 3: They're just him out his third gig that he was.
Speaker 3: I mean, these are all new episodes or new movies
Speaker 3: that are supposed to come out. Yeah, so he's doing
Speaker 3: really well until all of this, Keeme, I guess so yeah.
Speaker 2: I think you might have mentioned this where NBC pulled
Speaker 2: an episode of Law and Order SVU. He was going
Speaker 2: to be on that and that was supposed to debut
Speaker 2: in two days and they've they've removed that as well.
Speaker 2: And now he's fighting back. And like you mentioned before, Sean,
Speaker 2: You Deserve each Other. This thing they're editing him out
Speaker 2: of was a book that they've made into a movie.
Speaker 8: Was it.
Speaker 2: He's big into that field. I think Timothy Bussfield. They
Speaker 2: said he's sharing shocking new audio from the twins who
Speaker 2: were accusing him of a molestation, and he said it
Speaker 2: badly undermines their allegations. Audio shared by busfield attorney's first
Speaker 2: reported by TMZ, showed the child actors deny Busfield ever
Speaker 2: touched their genitals. When first questioned by cops in November
Speaker 2: twenty twenty four, The twin boys only referred to as
Speaker 2: VLNSL and court Dos were asked by an officer, so
Speaker 2: you know what's right and wrong? Right? You know, nobody
Speaker 2: could touch your private areas. One boy said yeah, but
Speaker 2: he doesn't touch those parts. The second boy said no,
Speaker 2: he's never touched me, never, And this is what he's
Speaker 2: putting forward as evidence that he didn't do anything. I
Speaker 2: will ask another question was why were the kids being
Speaker 2: questioned by cops at the time about this. Why were
Speaker 2: the cops asking them whether or not you were touching
Speaker 2: their genitals? Why was that conversation going on, Because maybe
Speaker 2: there was something else that was said here. The family
Speaker 2: is saying the kids were talking to a therapist later
Speaker 2: on and they said that he did indeed touch them.
Speaker 2: I don't know what's what, but this guy's career is
Speaker 2: imploding and it looks a little bad for him and
Speaker 2: his wife at the moment. So it's weird that in
Speaker 2: this situation, and it's very uncommon normally when we're just
Speaker 2: hearing about this happening to regular non actor people. But
Speaker 2: they said that the twins are being just identified by letters. Yeah,
Speaker 2: the twins are in.
Speaker 4: The Wikipedia page for the IMDb page for this production,
Speaker 4: like oh.
Speaker 2: Obvious, who VLNSL are, So they're hiding their identity. But
Speaker 2: if their initials, it's not even like victim one and
Speaker 2: victim two. How old are they now? Let's see, because
Speaker 2: they said this when he when they were talking to
Speaker 2: police and said that that was November of twenty twenty.
Speaker 3: Four, and there were other victims that one settled and
Speaker 3: the other one was already over the age. I guess
Speaker 3: such a limitations.
Speaker 2: Okay, oh really, okay, yeah, I don't see the exact
Speaker 2: nature the little kids, though, sufficed to say, like the
Speaker 2: little kids who they are very young looking. So somebody's
Speaker 2: saying I know him as the jerk from Field of Dreams.
Speaker 2: I don't know. I don't recognize like oh, point Dexter
Speaker 2: from Revenge of the Nerds. Yeah, we have talked about that.
Speaker 2: When I first broke that's right, yeah, yeah, But he
Speaker 2: continues to get pressure. He's defending himself saying, look, even
Speaker 2: the kids said I didn't touch them. So we'll see
Speaker 2: what else happens on that story as things continue to develop,
Speaker 2: when if we return the Power Hour, the final hour
Speaker 2: of the show is going to arrive, and I want
Speaker 2: to tell you something that's happening with Netflix that's wild
Speaker 2: and something that they're calling the most romantic thing I've
Speaker 2: ever seen. But is it. We shall all judge together,
Speaker 2: and that is coming up next on the News Junkie.
Speaker 2: All right, we have a bunch to get into in
Speaker 2: the final hour of the show. Not sure where to
Speaker 2: go next. I guess very quickly I can hit on
Speaker 2: this because it's an update to something we've been talking about.
Speaker 2: Uh Don Lemon, who's probably quite happy that he's getting
Speaker 2: a lot of chatter today considering his overall irrelevance in
Speaker 2: the media landscape as of late. He's getting a lot
Speaker 2: of mentions because he busted in this church with these
Speaker 2: people and in the middle of a church sermon, they
Speaker 2: started yelling at all the church parishioners, all the people
Speaker 2: in the pews of families and stuff about whatever it was.
Speaker 2: Some of them were yelling about ice because the pastor has, like,
Speaker 2: you know, some gig with ice that he's been doing
Speaker 2: for a long time, I guess, and they took issue
Speaker 2: with that. Other ones were like, why aren't you around
Speaker 2: the Somalian community, which seems like an interesting time with that,
Speaker 2: considering the Samalian community is absolutely wrapped up in these
Speaker 2: fraud cases in the state of Minnesota. But he was
Speaker 2: part of this group that ran into this church and
Speaker 2: did this, And now I guess somebody asked the president
Speaker 2: about it. So if you're Don Lemon, you're probably happy
Speaker 2: about that. You're getting some more clicks and whatnot. Here's
Speaker 2: what President Trump said about this whole thing show.
Speaker 14: This is what the pictures are trying to protect, because
Speaker 14: all I wants to do is get them out of
Speaker 14: our country, bring them to prisons, in jails and mental
Speaker 14: institutions from where they came.
Speaker 2: That's all they want to do, the patriots, and they have.
Speaker 14: To be abused by guys like Don Lemon, who's a loser,
Speaker 14: light weight.
Speaker 2: I saw him the way he walked in that church.
Speaker 2: He was terrible. I had such respect for that pastor.
Speaker 2: He was so calm, he was so nice. He was
Speaker 2: just accusted. What they did in that church was horrible yesterday.
Speaker 2: So he's talking about this old incident in the church's
Speaker 2: he appears to have like a stack of almost like
Speaker 2: a wanted posters or something.
Speaker 8: Yeah.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it says Minnesota, worst of the worst. The only
Speaker 2: one I could see is this dude, and it says
Speaker 2: he's wanted for rape, robbery, sexual assault, obstruction of police.
Speaker 2: He's got like a stack of those to represent the
Speaker 2: people who he's saying they're trying to apprehend in the state.
Speaker 2: But I don't see any I can't see any other ones.
Speaker 2: And then he says don Lemon, the way he went
Speaker 2: into that church was I don't even remember what he said,
Speaker 2: but like he's a lightweight, I think was his comment.
Speaker 2: And a loser.
Speaker 3: Is he the only camera there?
Speaker 2: I think he was. I could be wrong about this.
Speaker 2: I think he was live streaming, and I don't know
Speaker 2: that he was the only person there. There seem to
Speaker 2: be a lot of people, as you could imagine that
Speaker 2: had you know, their cameras up and they're doing that
Speaker 2: thing like what are those phil abouts up and you
Speaker 2: sleep or not like that that sort of stuff. But
Speaker 2: maybe he was the only one that he does live stream,
Speaker 2: not to a a massive audience of people, generally speaking,
Speaker 2: considering he used to be one of the lead anchors
Speaker 2: on CNN. But let us know what you think. Your
Speaker 2: response to this send a dispatch over at thenews junkie
Speaker 2: dot com. I'm going to refrain from too much con
Speaker 2: comment on this one, but I wanted to discuss it
Speaker 2: because I have seen it out there and there's a
Speaker 2: new Star Trek series that is getting review bombed online
Speaker 2: which is on Paramount Plus. I don't have that. I
Speaker 2: don't have Paramount Plus and I have never I've never
Speaker 2: been into Star Trek. I don't know what the hell
Speaker 2: is going on.
Speaker 3: One of the movies it was fun though, and.
Speaker 2: I like when it's Starfleet Academy. Now they say it's
Speaker 2: like even further into the future, and I don't. I
Speaker 2: don't know what's going on, but I know it's getting
Speaker 2: review bombed. And some of the clips I have seen
Speaker 2: are pretty cringe and funny, and they're like, this is
Speaker 2: a thousand years into the future and there's still fat
Speaker 2: people and they were still wearing glasses. There were sharing
Speaker 2: a pair of eyeglasses with each other.
Speaker 3: It was like that, that.
Speaker 2: Probably wouldn't be a thing. But I don't know the
Speaker 2: rest of it. This is against it from Slash Film,
Speaker 2: and it says it's a day that ends and why,
Speaker 2: which means some petty little hate machines are busy spreading,
Speaker 2: spending their precious time on this earth review bombing another
Speaker 2: movie or television series for being too woke. This time
Speaker 2: it's the new Paramount Plus series Star Trek Starfleet Academy.
Speaker 2: That's what let's talk about it. I don't know, and
Speaker 2: this whole thing is very much like you know, Slash
Speaker 2: Film generally comes at it from this angle, and they're
Speaker 2: in support of the show. They said the rotten tomatoes,
Speaker 2: let's let's get up that because that'll at least give
Speaker 2: us an idea of the broader audience and what's happening
Speaker 2: Starfleet Academy Season one. The reviewers there, you got to divide,
Speaker 2: as you often do. Reviewers are at eighty seven percent
Speaker 2: on the Tomato meter and the audience is at forty
Speaker 2: three percent on the Tomato Meter.
Speaker 3: The audience do they get to comment or is just
Speaker 3: the rating?
Speaker 2: The audience also can leave a comment too. They can
Speaker 2: leave a review with a comment so you can see
Speaker 2: more about what their problem is. In a lot of cases,
Speaker 2: audience popcorn meter all audience.
Speaker 3: Why is it not point not excepting their cookies.
Speaker 2: It's because there's eight thousand pop ups right now that
Speaker 2: they're trying to hit me with all at once, which
Speaker 2: is just pleasurable Internet browsing as per usual. But forty
Speaker 2: three percent is the audience score on this. I saw
Speaker 2: some people saying, and I again, I'm not going to
Speaker 2: be able to hard take this one for you. I
Speaker 2: saw some people saying there was all sorts of things
Speaker 2: in the Star Trek world that they were violating, like
Speaker 2: different rules and things that you can't buy. Yeah, that's
Speaker 2: a good way to say, like cannon in the Star
Speaker 2: Trek world, and that's what their problem with it was,
Speaker 2: And like so many other things like She Hulk and
Speaker 2: some of these other projects, the a female reboot of Ghostbusters.
Speaker 2: It's a shield in it of itself because if there
Speaker 2: is criticism and you go, you guys are breaking cannon
Speaker 2: and it's actually not really a good show and it sucks,
Speaker 2: then they'll say, oh, you just don't like it because
Speaker 2: it's female focused, or it's like a progressive take on
Speaker 2: this but Star Trek people, if you have watched and
Speaker 2: you have a thought, let us know what you think
Speaker 2: during the show today with the dispatch at thenewsjunkie dot com.
Speaker 4: Yeah, but try to explain it to us quickly because
Speaker 4: we are not Star Trek people, so we are not
Speaker 4: going to get.
Speaker 2: A lot of the time.
Speaker 3: I beam me up Scotti Leonards and.
Speaker 2: That's about all. I don't know what was the what's
Speaker 2: the guy with the the little or the glasses he's
Speaker 2: got like the little reading rainbow reading rainbow guy. Yeah,
Speaker 2: he was blind and that was the only thing to
Speaker 2: let him see, but he.
Speaker 3: Shot lasers out of those eyes and he was able
Speaker 3: to take.
Speaker 2: Down I know that was Cyclops from uh X men
Speaker 2: all right, kind of looks similar though they both had
Speaker 2: that thing, that the glasses thing going on top store.
Speaker 2: What do you think this is? According to the Wall
Speaker 2: Street Journal, by the way, what do you think what
Speaker 2: percentage of American households make over two hundred thousand dollars?
Speaker 2: What do you think the percentages of American households they're
Speaker 2: thinking about like the American dream and you know how
Speaker 2: how well everybody's doing, et cetera, et cetera. What percentage
Speaker 2: of American households. That means if there's you know, a
Speaker 2: couple of mom and a dad or whatever, they're combined
Speaker 2: in the household bringing in over two hundred thousand dollars.
Speaker 8: Yeah.
Speaker 2: Yeah, as a household, they're bringing in over two hundred
Speaker 2: thousand dollars. What percentage of US households do you think
Speaker 2: that is?
Speaker 3: Twenty three?
Speaker 2: Twenty three? What do you think? Zelian? Uh, thirty, You
Speaker 2: guys are both way high. It's I was surprised that
Speaker 2: it was eleven point nine percent of US households eleven
Speaker 2: point nine According to the Wall Street Journal. Today, they're
Speaker 2: saying eleven point nine percent of American households now make
Speaker 2: over two hundred thousand dollars per year. That could be
Speaker 2: dual income or not. It doesn't have to be, but
Speaker 2: it would be twelve percent of Americans are making over
Speaker 2: two hundred thousand dollars a year in their household. Somebody says, so, basically,
Speaker 2: eighty eight point one percent of us are just here
Speaker 2: for the struggle. Well, I don't know if sub two
Speaker 2: hundred thous a year in your household is here for
Speaker 2: the struggle. But somebody says, serious question, does two hundred
Speaker 2: thousand feel like rich where you live. It's a fair question,
Speaker 2: and a lot of places two hundred thousand dollars doesn't
Speaker 2: feel like rich in Los Angeles, California, San Francisco, California,
Speaker 2: in maybe even Miami. I don't know if it would
Speaker 2: feel rich to have two hundred thousand dollars per year
Speaker 2: in New York City, New York City, no way.
Speaker 3: You're just making it.
Speaker 2: You're living, You're just getting by with a nice place,
Speaker 2: a decent place. I guess I would say, you know,
Speaker 2: that can depending on how much money you spend on stuff.
Speaker 2: Some of these I see apartments in Miami that I'm
Speaker 2: not super impressed with, and then somebody will say, well,
Speaker 2: this is six thousand dollars a month apartment. Jesus six
Speaker 2: thousand dollars. I'm moving back in with my parents every
Speaker 2: single month. So these they're saying two hundred thousand dollars
Speaker 2: households is about twelve percent of the United States public,
Speaker 2: which I thought was higher than I would have anticipated.
Speaker 2: You can or you can't. It doesn't, it doesn't have
Speaker 2: to be. It's just talking about general households in this
Speaker 2: particular case. So we'll see what you think about that
Speaker 2: as well. And now let's go to some of your feedback,
Speaker 2: because I have not gotten to enough of it. I
Speaker 2: apologize for that. Let's see what we got here. Josh says,
Speaker 2: I'm late sending this email to tips at the Neewsjunkie
Speaker 2: dot com. I headed that part, but I really enjoyed
Speaker 2: the old best of over the Break. It's weird. I
Speaker 2: have flashbacks of where I was listening to those segments
Speaker 2: from like ten years ago. I love the Jack Hannah
Speaker 2: interviews so much. Rip Jack Hannah. Your old radio clips
Speaker 2: with Jacko is hilarious. So those are like clips of
Speaker 2: me on Wild ninety five to five. I think when
Speaker 2: I was on a top forty station. I really enjoy
Speaker 2: all the stories about your dad. They cracked me up.
Speaker 2: He seemed like an interesting dude. Loved the show, says Josh. Josh,
Speaker 2: thank you appreciate that.
Speaker 1: Uh.
Speaker 2: Somebody saying about the about the drinks, well, this was
Speaker 2: the margarita that somebody said, i'll take the margarita. I'll
Speaker 2: take the regular margarita. And when they brought the bill,
Speaker 2: the regular margaritas were two hundred and something dollars a piece,
Speaker 2: and they didn't clarify that. This person says, look up
Speaker 2: caveat em poor. He says, m tour. I think it's mpoor,
Speaker 2: isn't it?
Speaker 5: See?
Speaker 3: And that just that I already know that it's an
Speaker 3: expensive drink.
Speaker 2: No, this is that's that's not what it is. Let
Speaker 2: the buyer beware, right, Yeah, I think so, he says,
Speaker 2: caveat E mpto R. Is that how Maybe that's how
Speaker 2: it's spelled. Basically, he says, Basically, if you aren't one
Speaker 2: hundred percent sure about the price, it's on you.
Speaker 3: The buyer loan is responsible for checking the quality and
Speaker 3: uh suitability of goods before a purchase is made. That's
Speaker 3: that does not go for food. You're trusting that the
Speaker 3: restaurant and the chef is going to make sure that
Speaker 3: the quality is good.
Speaker 2: Well, what is this? Is it a law? Is it
Speaker 2: a I think it's just a principle. I don't think
Speaker 2: it's a law.
Speaker 4: But this is saying that the buyer is responsible for
Speaker 4: checking the quality and suitability of goods, not the price.
Speaker 3: Yeah, suitability and price go hand in hand.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's buyer beware, is what Celan was saying. I think,
Speaker 2: And it's a short form of caveat m tour. It
Speaker 2: is empto r quia ignore non d quild Jewish alien
Speaker 2: emit let a purchaser beware, for he ought not to
Speaker 2: be ignorant of the nature of the property which he
Speaker 2: is buying from another party. Jesus, okay, I just want
Speaker 2: to burger.
Speaker 3: I don't want to learn a lot.
Speaker 2: Thank you Andy and Atlanta, thank you, he says. If
Speaker 2: you're not one hundred percent sure about the price, it's
Speaker 2: on you still a dick move. This person says that
Speaker 2: they want to be anonymous. ICAC, that's the group that
Speaker 2: said they hunt to these young predators. Are the predator
Speaker 2: people online. ICAC in Florida's a task force made up
Speaker 2: of FDL Sheriff's Office detectives and local police detectives. Each
Speaker 2: state attorney district has a task force. They do ride
Speaker 2: in unmarked cars with tinted windows, and usually go online
Speaker 2: and set up meets like Chris Hansen did on to
Speaker 2: Catch a Predator. They catch the guys who want to
Speaker 2: catch the kids and nets anonymous set all right, thank
Speaker 2: you appreciate that. And one more. Brenda emails and she
Speaker 2: says that movie Send Help looks really good. That you
Speaker 2: were talking about I saw the trailer weeks ago and
Speaker 2: I thought it was out, but I can't wait to
Speaker 2: see it. Evil Dead and Drag Me to Hell are
Speaker 2: awesome movies. Also, I'm wondering how do people have time
Speaker 2: to drive around and film people who they think work
Speaker 2: for ice like, get a damn job. Love y'all keep
Speaker 2: up the great work. My three best friends, Thank you, Brenda,
Speaker 2: appreciate that. With that, we're going to take a quick break.
Speaker 2: I'll get to this person. They said it was the
Speaker 2: most romantic thing they've ever seen. But I want to
Speaker 2: let you decide. I want to see what you think
Speaker 2: about this was it? Indeed, we got everything else to
Speaker 2: wrap up the show and to share the show Tuesday,
Speaker 2: so stick with us. That's coming up next on the
Speaker 2: news Junkie. Big apologies to.
Speaker 4: I thought you were right too, man, and I don't
Speaker 4: even think that's the first time we've gotten that wrong.
Speaker 2: To the jack Hanna family, Jack Hannah's not ripped. He
Speaker 2: has not died. He just the story was. I think
Speaker 2: that he like stepped down from the zoom.
Speaker 4: He retired from public life in twenty twenty one. He
Speaker 4: had been diagnosed with Alzheimer's and then they said his
Speaker 4: family said that his Alzheimer's progressed to the point where
Speaker 4: he no longer recognized most of his family members.
Speaker 2: And that was two and a half years ago.
Speaker 3: Damn, we killed them.
Speaker 2: He's still with them with us. Yeah, that's my bad.
Speaker 2: I apologize that that was my mistake. He is not dead.
Speaker 2: I would be curious, you know.
Speaker 4: We brought that up because somebody had in an email
Speaker 4: said that they liked listening to some of the old
Speaker 4: best stuff we did during the holidays, one of them
Speaker 4: being we interviewed Jack Hannah. You played a game with
Speaker 4: him where you offered to donate to a charity of
Speaker 4: his choice if he could name the animals that you
Speaker 4: were playing clips of.
Speaker 2: Had He had a fun time too. He loved it,
Speaker 2: And I'm like.
Speaker 4: If he I wonder, you know, because Alzheimer's kind of
Speaker 4: works in weird ways. He doesn't recognize a lot of
Speaker 4: his family members. He still recognizes the animals.
Speaker 2: Oh, I don't know.
Speaker 3: Music is a very big thing with Alzheimer's dementro patients.
Speaker 2: They go back crazy too.
Speaker 3: They could do and recite things from when they were
Speaker 3: in their twenties and thirties but not recognized their own children.
Speaker 2: It's so scary, is the right word. But you know,
Speaker 2: to watch that happened to somebody and think about, like
Speaker 2: all of the implications if that strikes you in your
Speaker 2: loved ones or something. It's tough.
Speaker 3: It is tough one, but there is a small window.
Speaker 3: That's very funny. I will say with my no no.
Speaker 3: And she was witting at the full blown dementia where
Speaker 3: she was asking me the same question forty times in
Speaker 3: a row, but every time I answered, until I finally
Speaker 3: gave her the answer she wanted. It was the funniest response,
Speaker 3: where's your boyfriend? I don't have a boyfriend. I'm kind
Speaker 3: of focusing on work. Tough s. Then she played a
Speaker 3: tiny violin and then she said ah. And then it
Speaker 3: was very entertaining because there's no filter. And I'm sure
Speaker 3: if you look back on it, maybe that's not the
Speaker 3: way you want to be remembered. Banana, that was hilarious.
Speaker 2: Well, that's I love. I love the same thing about
Speaker 2: autistic people. I find that to be phenomenal in so
Speaker 2: many ways. I find it, you know.
Speaker 3: The truth.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, like no filter, just unabashed, real responses. I
Speaker 2: think I love it.
Speaker 4: The episode of Love on the spectrum where they were
Speaker 4: doing like a speed dating thing, and they had a
Speaker 4: card to fill out, you know, to whether or not
Speaker 4: they liked the person, and the one girl started filling
Speaker 4: out the card while the person was still sitting there
Speaker 4: and checked that she didn't want to hang out with
Speaker 4: this guy anymore.
Speaker 3: There's so many great parts that kids that were just
Speaker 3: making out in front of their parents.
Speaker 2: I never thought about this, but all autistic dates are
Speaker 2: hot takes dating the right. They just sit down there
Speaker 2: and they unvarnished truth.
Speaker 10: Yea.
Speaker 2: They're like, look here, I don't like you. I don't
Speaker 2: quite like you.
Speaker 4: But the hot takes aren't about for them, like politics
Speaker 4: and stuff. The hootics are like do you like trains,
Speaker 4: because you better like trains.
Speaker 3: I like trains, You don't like trains.
Speaker 2: You're done, you get out of here. I love it, man,
Speaker 2: It's one of the most amazing things about people who
Speaker 2: are that far into the spectrum like that, and that's
Speaker 2: why people love those shows. I mean, it's made a
Speaker 2: couple of them really famous, and I think it has
Speaker 2: helped to illuminate in a good way, actually, the plight
Speaker 2: of autistic people and families who have somebody who is autistic,
Speaker 2: you know, in their inner circle as well, which is
Speaker 2: one of the reasons why I get a little sensitive
Speaker 2: when every thirty something TikToker is saying when I'm actually
Speaker 2: self diagnosed as autism, and it's like, oh God, shut up, please, right,
Speaker 2: I got this story. They said that this guy is
Speaker 2: the most romantic husband that has ever been that remains
Speaker 2: to be. Do we beat him up? Is he is
Speaker 2: he making us look bad? Me? Might be? This is
Speaker 2: what he did, and hang on, let me get back
Speaker 2: to his post here. Okay, he made a post online
Speaker 2: for people to hire his wife, all right, and I'm
Speaker 2: gonna unmute this, have you?
Speaker 3: Yeah, yep, it's so cute.
Speaker 2: It has three hundred and sixteen thousand likes, millions of views.
Speaker 2: And he made a little song. It's called the most
Speaker 2: romantic thing I've ever seen. That's what some people are
Speaker 2: saying about it. And here's the song he made for
Speaker 2: somebody to hire his wife. Let's play those here. Why
Speaker 2: Tony got pictures of it.
Speaker 8: It's a lot smarter than me. She's doing the legal
Speaker 8: work in Chicago, all remote at legal writing.
Speaker 2: She's the goat.
Speaker 10: Okay, to her experience, she appeals with hedguler, animal cruelty
Speaker 10: and s I swear to God if you hire her
Speaker 10: should be a great addition into your crew.
Speaker 8: Somebody hire my wire.
Speaker 2: She s works government in private. It's not bound. I
Speaker 2: didn't know.
Speaker 3: It's good, curse, weird, dumped, but still already extremely romantic.
Speaker 2: She's the fing light of my life. He said, After
Speaker 2: all this, do you good?
Speaker 10: End?
Speaker 3: The song?
Speaker 2: Catchy?
Speaker 5: Yeah?
Speaker 2: It does? It is yeah yeah, and many many views.
Speaker 2: I don't know if it's gotten her a job, but
Speaker 2: let's see if there's any updates. That says my lawyer
Speaker 2: wife is looking for work. I'm helping the only way
Speaker 2: I'm qualified to do so.
Speaker 3: DM me for more information and does not earn for
Speaker 3: the household.
Speaker 2: He said, this is a weirdly informative song for you,
Speaker 2: empty heaven, empty underscore heaven on TikTok. Maybe it worked.
Speaker 2: It is pretty sweet and it is a good little song.
Speaker 2: I have to give it to him and then you guys,
Speaker 2: miss yeah, miss a bunch. I'm gonna stop before the ad.
Speaker 2: My wife is an attorney.
Speaker 8: She's a lot smarter than me. She's looking in Chicago
Speaker 8: or remote at leak writing. Let me tell you her
Speaker 8: experience she's.
Speaker 2: So good. I swear to God, if you hire her
Speaker 2: should be a great addition to your crew. I'll stop him.
Speaker 2: I'll go ahead and stop him right there. I think
Speaker 2: you get the point. What do you guys think? Sweet move?
Speaker 2: It says to catch you to one viral well over
Speaker 2: one million views, one point five million counting a resume.
Speaker 2: But make it a love song until she get a job.
Speaker 3: I mean, I feel like he's about to get some
Speaker 3: TikTok and Instagram paychecks.
Speaker 2: She gets the job, he's getting some some love online.
Speaker 2: This is the most romantic thing I've ever seen. If
Speaker 2: you you are not going this hard for your wife,
Speaker 2: than what are you even married for? Do you know
Speaker 2: what this shows? His wife has a strong and positive
Speaker 2: relationship at home. So you know his wife will be
Speaker 2: focused on the work and not the drama at home.
Speaker 2: Just putting that out there for anybody thinking about bringing
Speaker 2: her on. But will it be successful? I don't know.
Speaker 2: We shall find out. All right, let's work in. I
Speaker 2: don't know if we have time for more dispatches, because
Speaker 2: I did have a couple of other things I wanted
Speaker 2: to get in. Well, let's let's just work in a
Speaker 2: one or two here Oh, here's somebody who sent a
Speaker 2: photo dispatch and they said, vamos cock to cacter vomos
Speaker 2: cacter cactu R. Vomos cactu R sends in a photo
Speaker 2: and they said, I'm a Philadelphia listener. I'm literally right
Speaker 2: down the street from Dallas andandro Steaks and Hogies. Where,
Speaker 2: uh the whats good? The Michelin Guide said they have
Speaker 2: one of the seven best sandwiches in the world.
Speaker 3: Is final fantasy.
Speaker 2: I've never heard of that before today. In this moment,
Speaker 2: it was North.
Speaker 4: America they did, because those all those sandwiches were the
Speaker 4: USA and one in Mexico.
Speaker 2: It says Philly listener. Here, I live a couple of
Speaker 2: houses down from Dallasandro's, so thank you for sending that. Florida,
Speaker 2: a lot of people were chiming in on the Florida
Speaker 2: State bird and the attempts to change it to the flamingo,
Speaker 2: like here's drink and no things.
Speaker 6: Hello, Hey, I'm not positive you guys can definitely double check,
Speaker 6: but I don't think Caribbean flamingos are endemic to Florida. No,
Speaker 6: it'll be a bad bird choice if they don't actually
Speaker 6: live here.
Speaker 2: Yeah, scrub. Some people were saying pelican. It should be
Speaker 2: the Pelican, and we do have a lot of those,
Speaker 2: but they're also annoying. Pelicans are They'll get up in
Speaker 2: your grail, they'll bother you specifically or eat if you're
Speaker 2: eating at the beach or anywhere near pelicans, they are nosy.
Speaker 4: Yeah, there was a couple of people commenting that the
Speaker 4: flamingos really are really native to Florida. I think the
Speaker 4: Caribbean ones. They brought some here, but and there. They
Speaker 4: were thriving for a little bit, but not so much anymore.
Speaker 2: Another person wanted to give their response on the woke
Speaker 2: Star Trek thing that's happening out there. There's some stories
Speaker 2: about that. Here's Jay Beaverton.
Speaker 13: They was up New Junkies, Hey, talk about the New
Speaker 13: Trek show. I'll leave all the canna stuff on the table.
Speaker 13: That's too much to get into at the moment. But
Speaker 13: the real wrinkle, the new wrinkle here is that Steven
Speaker 13: Miller on X made a post about New Trek being
Speaker 13: bad it's woke, and he reached out to William Shatner
Speaker 13: and said, hey, Bill, you need to take over, and
Speaker 13: then he included Paramount Plus and the and the post
Speaker 13: on X. Apparently Shattner agreed with him, which, of course,
Speaker 13: Steven Miller getting involved gets the political sides up and like, oh,
Speaker 13: the left is.
Speaker 2: Like, oh, you're nuts.
Speaker 13: You never understood what Trek was and you got the
Speaker 13: right mirror saying, oh it's get rid of woke.
Speaker 2: Track all right, hang on, let me see you, says
Speaker 2: William Shatner agreed with Stephen Miller, like like added the
Speaker 2: both of them on.
Speaker 4: X, you know, just mention them in a post saying like, hey,
Speaker 4: you need to get you guys need to reconcile with
Speaker 4: William Shatner and put him in charge of the creative
Speaker 4: stuff to make the Star Trek thing better. I think
Speaker 4: Shatner hit him back and said, yeah, like, why have
Speaker 4: we not cured the thing you mentioned about why are
Speaker 4: they wearing glasses a thousand years in the future.
Speaker 2: Yeah, so he says, I am so on the same
Speaker 2: page with you at Steven m Now, Stephen Miller is
Speaker 2: the one who is a White House Deputy chief of
Speaker 2: staff who probably should not be weighing in on Star
Speaker 2: Trek episodes. But William Shatter says, I'm s so on
Speaker 2: the same page with you. The fact that they have
Speaker 2: not cured hyperopia by the thirty second century is an
Speaker 2: abysmal oversight for the writers, meaning that they have glasses.
Speaker 2: I guess. Yeah. Also, Paramount Plus needs to up the
Speaker 2: budget because I'm sure that a well oiled organization like
Speaker 2: Starfleet and the Distant Future could afford more than one
Speaker 2: pair of glasses because the women were like sharing glasses
Speaker 2: back and forth for some reason.
Speaker 3: Maybe yeah, in the future, eye disease is different.
Speaker 2: Do they pass the glasses around while piloting the ship?
Speaker 2: Shame shame on the line producers. This is what you meant, right,
Speaker 2: I'm ready to assume command of the series. Call me,
Speaker 2: he says.
Speaker 4: I think he was, uh, because I don't think that
Speaker 4: those two agree politically. I think he was kind of
Speaker 4: poking fun at the work part, you know, saying like, oh, yeah, no,
Speaker 4: we should definitely focus on the glasses part, right, that's
Speaker 4: what you meant.
Speaker 2: I don't know. I don't know. I don't know William
Speaker 2: Shatner's politics, so I don't know where he would be at.
Speaker 3: Still just having a hard time realizing how small the
Speaker 3: Earth is in the universe.
Speaker 2: He was blown away and and Bezos big dogged him
Speaker 2: in the most rude of ways that could never be
Speaker 2: forgetting the.
Speaker 3: Hot chicks who are spraying champagne in their mouth. So
Speaker 3: see it, Billy somebody.
Speaker 2: He said, Sean, you should put on the Trump speech?
Speaker 2: Is Trump speaking? What's going on? Is there a big,
Speaker 2: big bombshell it outs right now?
Speaker 3: I don't know about bombshell announcement, He's I don't know now.
Speaker 3: It's on the chiron he called the Minnesota protesters paid agitators. Okay,
Speaker 3: e Renee Good, I forget the quote on the chiron
Speaker 3: as well, but it was like, felt really bad.
Speaker 2: Yeah, he's kind of been a little back and forth
Speaker 2: on her. He's like, she seemed like she could she
Speaker 2: could have been a good person, but she was involved
Speaker 2: in some bad stuff that day or something. I don't know.
Speaker 2: He's kind of been in between on the whole Renee
Speaker 2: Good thing that everybody fired up over. Ice here. All right,
Speaker 2: what we're gonna do. We're gonna do this instead of
Speaker 2: tuning into whatever that is. We're going to take a
Speaker 2: quick break and that sounds better to me, and when
Speaker 2: we come back, we'll do the final dispatches. Stories that
Speaker 2: didn't make the cut. And today I learned to wrap
Speaker 2: everything up for a share the show Tuesday, so all
Speaker 2: of that is coming up next on the News. Junkie
Speaker 2: the other day did something that I don't generally do.
Speaker 2: When I'm going for a walk or run, I usually
Speaker 2: put on something very obscure that most of you have
Speaker 2: never heard of or don't listen to. It's usually about
Speaker 2: like deep internet lore stuff that I listen to. These
Speaker 2: are the kind of things that I'm into outside of
Speaker 2: the show. I could name the people that I listened
Speaker 2: to from from this world and it just wouldn't register
Speaker 2: with like ninety nine percent of you. I don't tend
Speaker 2: to listen to like popular podcasts. I just I don't
Speaker 2: not none the thing against podcasts. I've been in podcasting
Speaker 2: for a ja billion years since nobody was really you know,
Speaker 2: familiar with the medium, and and we're a podcast as
Speaker 2: well as much as you could call it a podcast.
Speaker 2: This show has been very successful, the biggest podcast for
Speaker 2: the iHeartRadio Company in the state of Florida, really in
Speaker 2: the southeastern United States actually if you extrapolated a bit
Speaker 2: further than that. But I don't listen to podcasts like
Speaker 2: on the regular, and I did tune in to one,
Speaker 2: and it was because It was Joe Rogan's show where
Speaker 2: he had Matt Damon and Ben Affleck.
Speaker 3: And another new movie. The Rip watched it last night.
Speaker 2: They they were talking. I love to hear people who
Speaker 2: just like know a ton about something, in this case
Speaker 2: the movie industry. They were talking about the movie industry,
Speaker 2: Ben Affleck and Matt Damon in a way that was
Speaker 2: like really interesting to me. And they were talking about Yeah,
Speaker 2: they were talking about what it was like to work
Speaker 2: with Netflix and how Netflix tells them and and folks,
Speaker 2: you can get mad at this all you want. You
Speaker 2: can get mad at Netflix all you want, but it's
Speaker 2: totally true, oh, Netflix says. Netflix says, Look, our research
Speaker 2: shows the majority of the Netflix audience is on another screen.
Speaker 2: They're on a phone half the time. So when you're
Speaker 2: making a movie, we want you to start with an
Speaker 2: explosion in the first fifteen minutes, and we want you
Speaker 2: to reiterate and restate the plot two or three times
Speaker 2: so that the people disconnect because they're staring at Instagram
Speaker 2: or whatever, so that they go, oh, I wasn't paying attention. Okay,
Speaker 2: now I know what's going on.
Speaker 3: And here's the deal that makes sense on multiple platforms
Speaker 3: and levels. And industries. And despite it might hurt your
Speaker 3: feelings for a second there, remember that most humans are robots.
Speaker 3: Find yourself at a theme park and you divert the line,
Speaker 3: and the twelve people behind you will foll you. So
Speaker 3: that makes sense to repeat the plot over and over
Speaker 3: again to have an explosion that catches their attention.
Speaker 2: I thought it was interesting. Also, they're both pretty smart
Speaker 2: guys to sit there and listen to them talk at
Speaker 2: length about their field. Both of them, Ben Affleck and
Speaker 2: Matt Damon are both incredibly bright at what they do
Speaker 2: and successful, yes, and very very successful as well. And
Speaker 2: they're talking about a new sort of thing they're trying
Speaker 2: to do with how talent gets paid in these movies,
Speaker 2: and that means everybody who works on the movie can
Speaker 2: get bonuses in this new structure that they've been working on,
Speaker 2: and that was really interesting to hear. And they're just
Speaker 2: two very smart guys totally locked into the world of movies.
Speaker 2: And in fact, Ben Affleck is one of the few
Speaker 2: people who I've heard speak about AI with a pretty
Speaker 2: firm grasp I think personally on where it's going and
Speaker 2: what it can do and how it's going to change
Speaker 2: things and Ben Affleck's like, there's a lot of people
Speaker 2: who think, in the next ten years or something, you're
Speaker 2: just going to put in something and there'll be a
Speaker 2: whole community community. You'll put in something, you'll put in
Speaker 2: a prompt, and a whole movie will be made from
Speaker 2: whole cloth. And he said, no, it'll be much more
Speaker 2: about small jobs on the movie that get replaced by AI.
Speaker 2: A lot of AI writing is still lackluster. He's right
Speaker 2: about that, and to have AI do everything, we're just
Speaker 2: not this way way down the road still. So it
Speaker 2: was interesting. I love hearing people with that level of
Speaker 2: knowledge and that depth intellectually talk about that stuff. And
Speaker 2: both those guys are pretty bright guys actually, certainly when
Speaker 2: it comes to the Hollywood world in acting and Netflix
Speaker 2: wants movies to account for viewers on their phones, whether
Speaker 2: you like it or not, that's what they're saying. I
Speaker 2: think we're out of time, unfortunately, so let's get the
Speaker 2: hell out of here. Let's do today.
Speaker 16: I learned The following information may make you feel smarter,
Speaker 16: but will not actually increase your IQ.
Speaker 2: So don't get cocky.
Speaker 8: Now.
Speaker 3: It's done.
Speaker 2: What we call today, it is today learned for a
Speaker 2: Tuesday January twentieth, twenty twenty six. Today I learned this
Speaker 2: birthday girl, Elly Parton. That's right, Miss Dolly Parton is
Speaker 2: not only it's her birthday this week, she's eighty years old,
Speaker 2: I believe. Not only one of the largest employers in Tennessee,
Speaker 2: where she lives, but after the twenty sixteen wildfires, she
Speaker 2: raised over nine million dollars through her My People Fund.
Speaker 2: She ended up giving nine hundred families one thousand dollars
Speaker 2: a month for six months to rebuild their homes. And
Speaker 2: she was also honored by the FBI for her leadership
Speaker 2: during the time. Dollywood, the theme park one of the
Speaker 2: big employers over there in her area of Tennessee. We're
Speaker 2: even the FBI honored her. Yeah, it seems like they
Speaker 2: wouldn't be involved in that. I I'll honor, but she's
Speaker 2: a pretty likable lady. Even the FBI is on board.
Speaker 2: Today learn there was a Swedish milkmaid who was briefly
Speaker 2: detained by police in the eighteen thirties because she was
Speaker 2: so attractive she caused disruptive crowds. Imagine being that hot, Okay,
Speaker 2: being like, look, I'm so attractive that here's they have
Speaker 2: like a statue of this lady. I guess Pilt Karen
Speaker 2: Earth's daughter. Is her name Lobar and this this woman
Speaker 2: different times, different different beauty standards. I guess she was
Speaker 2: sorry that they used to have crowds gather to watch
Speaker 2: her deliver milk. And she really shut down cities back then.
Speaker 2: And finally today learned this guy right here, b No,
Speaker 2: he did a show with us. He's dead, He's really dead. Coolio,
Speaker 2: the rapper. Coolio had a cameo in the Batman and
Speaker 2: Robin movie. It was an easter egg that was supposed
Speaker 2: to set up a fifth movie in the series, and
Speaker 2: Coolio said, I wanted to be in a larger role
Speaker 2: in the next movie, but they didn't do it because
Speaker 2: Joel Schumacher. They fired that guy and he didn't get
Speaker 2: along with me anyhow. He didn't make a lot of
Speaker 2: friends on the set of the Batman and Robin movie.
Speaker 2: Oh what am I doing? Leave on the subject. Thank
Speaker 2: you so much for hanging out with us. We do
Speaker 2: appreciate it. We're back tomorrow, same time, same place. Listening
Speaker 2: to the show. Get the podcast at the news Junkie
