Speaker 2: mailbox money from Google Plus your calls, dispatches, emails, text,

Speaker 1: News Junkie.
Speaker 2: Your message is rolling a right at the studio in
Speaker 2: real time. Hows everybody doing on a Thursday? No, not that,
Speaker 2: it's just you know a lot of times the the
Speaker 2: the thumbnail and the title on the stream for the
Speaker 2: show is exaggerated or a lie.
Speaker 1: I mean, everything's.
Speaker 2: Falling apart, like it's just it's just absolute and utter
Speaker 2: chaos right now.
Speaker 1: Just you know, like systems down. I feel like we're
Speaker 1: gonna you can check it and all of a sudden
Speaker 1: there's gonna be like, uh uh ah, you didn't say
Speaker 1: the magic work.
Speaker 2: Yeah, you know what you know they say all systems go,
Speaker 2: We're at all systems. No, all systems go straight to hell.
Speaker 2: That's where we're at right now. Just to be clear,
Speaker 2: I'll rattle through a couple of things. We've got some
Speaker 2: hardware that's down that helps to run the show, so
Speaker 2: Seelane can only do some very basic switching and stuff
Speaker 2: that's just on the video side.
Speaker 1: That doesn't matter quite as much. I'm doing this with
Speaker 1: my iPhone.
Speaker 2: He's literally switching the show on his iPhone at the moment.
Speaker 1: Here.
Speaker 2: The AC in my studio is apparently our IP. I
Speaker 2: guess that happened to occur on the very same day
Speaker 2: that all this is happening. Austin is in here working
Speaker 2: on to get everything booted back up and fixing all
Speaker 2: the stuff that's going on everywhere. Well, and that's where
Speaker 2: we are on a Thursday, all right. So I'm gonna
Speaker 2: be a sweaty, heated mess. I'm in the middle of
Speaker 2: what I call a streak of Sean luck. And this
Speaker 2: doesn't happen to anybody else like me. It's just things
Speaker 2: start coming up against me over and over and over
Speaker 2: and over again, and this is the worst time for it.
Speaker 2: I'll explain more in a second. But let's start off
Speaker 2: as we always do. Let's put our ears to the ground,
Speaker 2: our fingers in the pulse. Let's see what's happening to
Speaker 2: this great, big, wide world of ours, and we go
Speaker 2: to well, let's go to baseball first, everybody. Indeed, we
Speaker 2: got the tee team and the case team also known
Speaker 2: as the Kansas City Royals, and the tea team. Wow,
Speaker 2: Texas Rangers. Maybe, yeah, I'll never know.
Speaker 1: We will never know. Somebody on chat will tell me.
Speaker 2: Actually, but let's go to the mound here and see
Speaker 2: what's happening during this baseball game. As the stringers the
Speaker 2: Texas Rangers, I told you, as the pitch heads towards
Speaker 2: the catcher, here goes nothing.
Speaker 1: Most of them are pretty pretty in tune to it.
Speaker 1: This one.
Speaker 3: Back up the middle, right in the heads heading in
Speaker 3: the right field, and that is awful.
Speaker 2: I mean, even the batter, even the batter who gets
Speaker 2: to first base is doing time out.
Speaker 1: He's like, hey, you know, we got it.
Speaker 2: We gotta stop this year because the ball just came
Speaker 2: off his bat and hit the pitcher directly in the
Speaker 2: head line drive in tune to it.
Speaker 3: This one, Oh my goodness, back up the middle, off
Speaker 3: of Logo's heading in the right field, and that is awful.
Speaker 3: Nemo is out of his mind, concerned, gotta time out.
Speaker 1: Yeah, Race is over to check on him. He got
Speaker 1: back up.
Speaker 2: You know what the craziest thing is it bounced off
Speaker 2: his head and went all the way into the outfield.
Speaker 1: Like that's pretty nuts in and of itself.
Speaker 2: The ball hit the picture off the bat and then
Speaker 2: it flew into the outfield.
Speaker 1: I know that the ball that you want is the
Speaker 1: home run ball, but don't you also kind of want
Speaker 1: the ball off the picture's head ball. I gotta tell you,
Speaker 1: I don't not want that one. You know, you think
Speaker 1: that they should give it to the picture, Like, sorry,
Speaker 1: you have this giant welt on your head for a
Speaker 1: little bit. But here's the ball. Picture that.
Speaker 2: Here is the picture just here is long, long, just
Speaker 2: and end of the world. Noises going on inside the
Speaker 2: picture's head at the moment. Well, there you go. He's okay. Allegedly,
Speaker 2: allegedly he's okay. Things are going well. They are not,
Speaker 2: as I said, going well. Here in my world, it's hot.
Speaker 2: I'm already starting to sweat a little bit over the lip,
Speaker 2: and we've got everything ripped apart here, Austin is working
Speaker 2: on fixing things. I got drama everywhere. I got my
Speaker 2: contract ticking down to nineteen days or something close to that.
Speaker 2: I got people mad at me as of late. I
Speaker 2: don't even know why. I don't know what's I don't
Speaker 2: know what's going on. Pisenberg is at least back in
Speaker 2: TNJ chat. But Pisenberg, I took the time yesterday to
Speaker 2: send you an email responding to my drama with you,
Speaker 2: and I was like, hey, you know, sorry, I pulled
Speaker 2: the trigger a little too fast. I didn't know who
Speaker 2: was in shadow. Was a little pissed off at somebody's reaction.
Speaker 2: Nothing nothing, no response, No, hey man, all good, all good,
Speaker 2: we're good over here, none of that.
Speaker 4: No.
Speaker 2: I don't know if we're still battling. I don't know
Speaker 2: what's going on. I figure he texted me yesterday. He's
Speaker 2: a texter. Yeah, is he didn't text me? Huh, he
Speaker 2: didn't need it have your number? No, Apparently he's mad
Speaker 2: about my America takes. There's like he's the only one,
Speaker 2: him and the some guy on YouTube, which I'm like,
Speaker 2: I don't know what do I do about that. I'm
Speaker 2: not gonna apologize for saying, I think America is overall
Speaker 2: some place to be. I'm gonna be fine with that.
Speaker 2: He says, I don't read emails. You sent me an email.
Speaker 2: It's what I was responding to. He sent me an email.
Speaker 2: He was mad about what happened yesterday, and I said,
Speaker 2: you know what, now that I have some time after
Speaker 2: the show, I'm sorry. And I pulled the trigger a
Speaker 2: little too quick. I was just reacting to somebody who
Speaker 2: was annoying over on the YouTube side of things. But
Speaker 2: here we are. Well, we'll figure it out. We'll try
Speaker 2: to at least we'll try to figure it out. I
Speaker 2: will tell you this. We may hear from him with
Speaker 2: an angry, anonymous dispatch because after Silane mentioned this on
Speaker 2: the show yesterday, I made it a reality nice made
Speaker 2: the Great Codorritos strikes again. Baby, the Great Coturrito strikes again,
Speaker 2: and he says he's not mad at all. He says,
Speaker 2: I think America is decent. Also see that. I just
Speaker 2: see the bad as well.
Speaker 1: Well we all do. That's one of the great things
Speaker 1: about America. That's it. That was you guys made up
Speaker 1: on the air like that.
Speaker 2: That's one of my point. My points is one of
Speaker 2: the best things about Americas were very self critical, and
Speaker 2: we look at all the good and the bad and
Speaker 2: the ugly, and then we try to work it out
Speaker 2: all right, back to it because Seelan said, we need
Speaker 2: to be able to do anonymous dispatches, which you were
Speaker 2: able to do on the website, but you weren't able
Speaker 2: to do anywhere else. And then it only just stripped
Speaker 2: your name off of it. But now we already got
Speaker 2: our first one. We already have our first anonymous dispatch
Speaker 2: coming in.
Speaker 1: You want me to play it? Yeah, let's here. See
Speaker 1: what happens here.
Speaker 4: He goes, Hey, this is Anonymous. I just wanted to say,
Speaker 4: this is the greatest show ever, the most unbelievable show
Speaker 4: of all time.
Speaker 1: Wow.
Speaker 4: And the idea that you can just like that, the
Speaker 4: anonymous dispatch.
Speaker 1: And he's going to call you a cot arena.
Speaker 4: It's mine blowing to me. Well, no one's ever going
Speaker 4: to know who this is, but I do hope you
Speaker 4: have a great day. Goodbye, keep up.
Speaker 2: Thank you, goodbye, Thank you Anonymous. That's that's really fantastic
Speaker 2: to hear. A holy cow, Now here's how this works.
Speaker 1: I think Anonymous sounds like a woman.
Speaker 2: Yeah, don't do that, he would you not want me
Speaker 2: to do that. Here's here's how this works. You can
Speaker 2: send an anonymous dispatch just like that. All you have
Speaker 2: to do is use it through the website or Android.
Speaker 1: Android is also updated.
Speaker 2: The iPhone update with anonymous dispatching isn't yet out there
Speaker 2: and accepted, but we'll probably be in the next couple
Speaker 2: of days. But on the website and on of course,
Speaker 2: on the Android app, you could send an anonymous dispatches now,
Speaker 2: so I'll probably make it so you could shift it
Speaker 2: around and bring it into the high pitched or the
Speaker 2: low pitch strange.
Speaker 1: Give it a couple you know, a little presets or
Speaker 1: op Yeah, yeah, a couple of them. Have you figured
Speaker 1: it out yet, Sean? Has? Have you has the light
Speaker 1: bulb turned on yet? Which one? Which light bulb? The
Speaker 1: one where in the middle of a war? Okay, calm down,
Speaker 1: the light bulb where you say, like, I'm gonna make
Speaker 1: this app. I'm gonna revamp the app. I'm just gonna
Speaker 1: push a couple updates and then it's gonna be done. No,
Speaker 1: it's not. No, No, you're gonna get more ideas. The
Speaker 1: Great Coat a Reno is gonna and then and then
Speaker 1: I slid you that little voice changing thing and you're like,
Speaker 1: I can do that.
Speaker 5: Yeah.
Speaker 1: More up.
Speaker 2: For those of you who didn't figure it out, that
Speaker 2: was me testing out the anonymous just more. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 2: that that was indeed me. But you can try it out.
Speaker 1: One with all the compliments for you.
Speaker 2: I was gonna lather it on a bit more, but
Speaker 2: I was in the middle of a tornado of nonsense,
Speaker 2: so I was just trying to make sure everything actually worked.
Speaker 2: And it looks like it does. But no, I'm not
Speaker 2: gonna do what you think I'm gonna do like a
Speaker 2: I am gonna flip out because I'm already starting to
Speaker 2: sweat a little bit in the studio here. But what
Speaker 2: I am going to do is just every once in
Speaker 2: a while, little improvements.
Speaker 1: And I agreed.
Speaker 2: I thought when we did our confessions yesterday, I was like,
Speaker 2: one of the things that will be absolutely cool is
Speaker 2: if these confessions were audio based and you couldn't hear
Speaker 2: what the person said and you sort of you know,
Speaker 2: we used to have this technology in the studio. I
Speaker 2: think we still do, where you can make it really
Speaker 2: deep or really high pitched or whatever. Adventure Seeker on
Speaker 2: YouTube set. It sounded like that anonymous dispatch was about
Speaker 2: a book about to book a hotel room at the plaza.
Speaker 1: I thought too, the father.
Speaker 6: Got it.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's really.
Speaker 4: This is anonymous.
Speaker 2: Yeah, you too could be anonymous. I want to see
Speaker 2: what it sounds like everybody else's voice. So if you're
Speaker 2: on the website or Android, give that a shot today.
Speaker 2: Be patient so we can figure out whether or not
Speaker 2: this is this is going to work correctly across the board.
Speaker 2: And it's a day where all hell could break loose
Speaker 2: at any point in time. But we shall see how
Speaker 2: that goes as we roll on with the show today.
Speaker 2: So send us your dispatches on Android and on the
Speaker 2: web site. You can now try out being anonymous on iPhone.
Speaker 2: That'll be real soon. And I hate to do this, Pisenberg,
Speaker 2: I do. I hate to do this, but I'm even
Speaker 2: more love in love with America than ever before after
Speaker 2: seeing a brand new American invention. Now Cores is an
Speaker 2: American company, correct, is that believe?
Speaker 7: So?
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's right, course cold and at least started as one.
Speaker 1: I don't know if a foreign company has bought it
Speaker 1: up or not, but I hope not. You know, they
Speaker 1: merged with the miller.
Speaker 2: Right, they just really launched maybe the most American thing
Speaker 2: I've seen in a while. The new cores like, can
Speaker 2: have you seen this yet?
Speaker 1: Or no, I'm not?
Speaker 2: Oh god, here it is ready watch, here's the debut.
Speaker 2: Cold is the Rockies.
Speaker 1: This is Americas are getting bigger. It's a big beer can,
Speaker 1: all right.
Speaker 5: Cor cheering.
Speaker 1: Talk? Is it tall? Can holler introducing the Taller Boy.
Speaker 2: Okay, the Taller Boy has been launched by cors Light.
Speaker 2: I don't know if it's a foot tall, but as
Speaker 2: sure as s looks like it, it absolutely we are
Speaker 2: living in the best timeline anybody could absolutely imagine.
Speaker 1: I think it's it's a great uh great commercial. It's
Speaker 1: it's pretty funny. Are they really making this? I believe
Speaker 1: they are. There is a little twist that I do
Speaker 1: not like. I don't like, but I think is revealed here.
Speaker 1: I'll explain here the can that can any other can?
Speaker 2: So I think it might be just a can with
Speaker 2: a twist top that you can fit a six pack
Speaker 2: of coarse hands in.
Speaker 1: But you could still do what's that thing called.
Speaker 2: Where you uh used to tape the beers to your
Speaker 2: hand Edward forty hands. You can like Edward forty hands
Speaker 2: yourself through this process. You couldn't with that because you,
Speaker 2: I mean, unless you filled that thing with beer.
Speaker 1: Yeah, well you do. You open the top.
Speaker 2: One and then you poke a hole I think, and
Speaker 2: the top of the gigantic cores light can.
Speaker 1: It's got so many o's on it. C o o
Speaker 1: o o o o o oh.
Speaker 2: Oh you know, it goes on for a while. Core
Speaker 2: is light. It's about up to my knee tall, maybe
Speaker 2: tall or Robbie's got to be six beer cans tall, right,
Speaker 2: I would that's how big it is. A six pack says,
Speaker 2: this is a collectible item for me. Yeah, if you
Speaker 2: can get your hands on one, it's a fun novelty
Speaker 2: I was. I was a little worried that it was
Speaker 2: going to be that big of just a can of beer.
Speaker 2: I wonder if they tried it and realized that aluminum
Speaker 2: cans kind of have a max height before they start,
Speaker 2: you know, losing the structural integrity.
Speaker 1: Yeah, but it could. Paul. So, the problem with Edward
Speaker 1: forty hands for me is that I can't drink a
Speaker 1: forty fast enough that the rest, you know, at some point,
Speaker 1: all that beer is just going to be warm.
Speaker 2: Wow, And gross. Wow, how how sad? Empathetic and Unamericana. Yeah,
Speaker 2: forty show, I could if I watched forty. I don't
Speaker 2: actually because I don't think we can buy them and
Speaker 2: not in Florida. That's a real way freedom summer Florida.
Speaker 2: I thought this was America. Hold on, maybe I'm turning
Speaker 2: the corner on this. All right, We're going to take
Speaker 2: quick break. When we come back, we'll rip it a
Speaker 2: things full speed. I have no idea what's going to
Speaker 2: happen on the show today, literally no clue. Meltdowns galore,
Speaker 2: probably sweating, Sean angry and screaming in the studio. I
Speaker 2: don't know, but it's gonna be a ride, and hopefully
Speaker 2: you'll come along with so make your day go by
Speaker 2: a little bit faster.
Speaker 1: We have some mayhem in New York City.
Speaker 2: I want to talk about what happened after the nixt
Speaker 2: game because there was some moments on the street that
Speaker 2: were I think we're just out of control, man.
Speaker 1: And we'll get into that.
Speaker 2: And your dispatch is anonymous and otherwise all of that
Speaker 2: coming up next in the news key so much to
Speaker 2: get into it a very very busy Thursday. We'll get
Speaker 2: into your dispatches. Of course, your emails.
Speaker 1: All of that good stuff is rolling into the show.
Speaker 2: I still have, believe it or not, Sea laid confessions
Speaker 2: coming in. But just so you guys know, we're not
Speaker 2: doing that every day. No, it's not in every We
Speaker 2: might do that on Wednesdays or something just to break
Speaker 2: the week up and have a little bit of fun,
Speaker 2: but we're not doing that every day, So hold your
Speaker 2: confessions for now. I just wanted to tell you at
Speaker 2: the beginning of the show that I added the ability
Speaker 2: for you guys to send anonymous dispatches like it anonymizes
Speaker 2: your voice, and those are available on the Android app
Speaker 2: and on the news junkie dot com, but not yet
Speaker 2: in the update on iOS. I submitted it, but it's
Speaker 2: gonna take like maybe a day or so before that
Speaker 2: gets approved. So check it out, explore see if it
Speaker 2: works for you, et cetera, et cetera. I think it's
Speaker 2: fun and I think you'll like it as well. The
Speaker 2: New York Knicks where the big winners Game four, they said,
Speaker 2: one of the greatest comebacks in NBA finals. All right,
Speaker 2: one of the greatest comebacks in NBA finals since Kim Kardashian.
Speaker 2: There hasn't been one quite like this I hear. And
Speaker 2: they said the New York Knicks pulled off the greatest
Speaker 2: comeback in NBA Finals history.
Speaker 1: They said, ever on CNN.
Speaker 2: They rallied from a twenty nine point deficit to beat
Speaker 2: the San Antonio Spurs.
Speaker 1: Excuse me, san Antonio Spores. San Antonio Spores. Their their
Speaker 1: mascot is a giant mushroom. No, it's not it.
Speaker 2: San Antonio Spurs. They beat them one oh seven to
Speaker 2: what oh six, and now they're ahead three to one
Speaker 2: with a chance to clinch the title this weekend. That's
Speaker 2: in Sana, So maybe it'll be a little more difficult.
Speaker 2: But before we get into the inevitable, which is always Hey, guys,
Speaker 2: our team won the really amazing thing. And when our
Speaker 2: team won the really amazing thing the game and we
Speaker 2: had the ultimate comeback, what we need to do is
Speaker 2: obviously burn our city to the ground. Yeah, definitely, because
Speaker 2: the way to celebrate, as any good football team knows,
Speaker 2: I'm looking at you, Philadelphia, all right, I'm looking at
Speaker 2: you Philly, as every good football, baseball, hockey, whatever, basketball fanos,
Speaker 2: when your team wins, you obviously need to break a
Speaker 2: couple of stoplights. You need to knock down some signs.
Speaker 2: You need to obviously break the window of some local
Speaker 2: establishments that are completely unrelated to the game.
Speaker 1: That's how you do it.
Speaker 2: But it was a big, big comeback victory.
Speaker 1: It was electric.
Speaker 2: In fact, Josh Group texted Sea Lana and I mean
Speaker 2: Josh is in New York City and he says, Manhattan
Speaker 2: is electric right now, So you know it was electric.
Speaker 3: Man, go right at the top, one on one, Brumston
Speaker 3: gets it fires up at three shut no, God, but tip,
Speaker 3: let's go.
Speaker 1: He tipped it in.
Speaker 2: He tipped it in right there, and everybody just reacted.
Speaker 3: God, it's gone with one point two perman it nest
Speaker 3: take the lead.
Speaker 1: Oh geeab that's one of time. I mean, the place
Speaker 1: is just mayhem.
Speaker 2: Man, all of these mega rich people, you know, because
Speaker 2: obviously every seat is seven eight, twenty thousand dollars. All
Speaker 2: of them are like, yeah, all our bills are paid off.
Speaker 2: And also the Knicks just won, so let's explode. It
Speaker 2: was instant barbarians. Man inside the arena. There, that's Madison
Speaker 2: Square Garden right correct, Man, Madison Square Arden is on
Speaker 2: one right now because Madison Square Garden has that Then
Speaker 2: the Taylor Swift wedding, I guess for some reason, is
Speaker 2: held there such an odd choice.
Speaker 1: I think I can't imagine getting married in an arena
Speaker 1: like that unless you're a super big basketball fan, right,
Speaker 1: I mean, if I got married in an arena like that,
Speaker 1: the amount of people that I would be able to
Speaker 1: fill it with would be just embarrassing, no matter what
Speaker 1: I mean.
Speaker 2: When your Taylor Swift and yeah, I think they said
Speaker 2: they're expecting only like a thousand, Yeah, only a thousand
Speaker 2: people at their wedding. Well, I mean compared to the
Speaker 2: capacity of Madison Square Garden, right, would you have people
Speaker 2: sit like every other row or how do you know
Speaker 2: they're all on the floor maybe or the lower big
Speaker 2: potential for failure there. This is a moment, though, and
Speaker 2: I wanted to point this out, even though, as you
Speaker 2: know from listening to the show, like I'm not the
Speaker 2: biggest sports fan or nowhere even close to it.
Speaker 1: I don't watch sports regularly.
Speaker 2: But I love all things viral, and so every once
Speaker 2: in a while the sports breaks through into viral. That's
Speaker 2: happening right now with the NBA, believe it or not,
Speaker 2: This back and forth between the San Antonio Spurs, the
Speaker 2: Texas team, and the New York team, The New York
Speaker 2: Knicks is really really popping off right now. For instance,
Speaker 2: ABC and ESPNS broadcast average twenty three point seventy nine
Speaker 2: million viewers. That is the biggest TV audience for an
Speaker 2: NBA Finals game in thirty years, Okay, in three decades.
Speaker 2: Count them, baby, you got to go back to the
Speaker 2: nineteen nineties. Michael Jordan was playing the last time they
Speaker 2: had ratings like this in a NBA Finals game like
Speaker 2: they just had last night. That's kind of cool. People
Speaker 2: are tuning in. The game peaked with twenty six point
Speaker 2: three million viewers at about eleven to fifteen PM at
Speaker 2: the closing minutes of the contest as that final tip
Speaker 2: went through. People who aren't even basketball fans, you men, women, grandma's, grandpa's,
Speaker 2: everybody out there was involved in this.
Speaker 1: And I've seen so many cool things.
Speaker 2: Here's some examples I'll give you for you folks watching
Speaker 2: the stream today as a basic bitch as it might be,
Speaker 2: all right, there's people this guy who's in New York
Speaker 2: and Ceilan will tell me what he used, But he
Speaker 2: used some sort of projector sure to project the Knicks
Speaker 2: game on a giant building, the fantastic idea. He just
Speaker 2: put the Knicks game. And I gotta tell you, are
Speaker 2: projectors just this good now? Or does this guy have
Speaker 2: like a particularly good woman? Would you think you have
Speaker 2: two things going on? Projectors are a lot better than
Speaker 2: they used to be. They're cheaper.
Speaker 1: Although all these rich New York people, I guess this
Speaker 1: is the last guy that didn't get in the game,
Speaker 1: so he spent he could have spent his money on
Speaker 1: a really good projector and having something like ESPN quality
Speaker 1: like that, and showing it at night and anything that
Speaker 1: happens at night in the dark is gonna look just
Speaker 1: phenomenal like that.
Speaker 2: It's really good quality. I mean, this is on the
Speaker 2: side of a building. Yes, it's like maybe a thirty
Speaker 2: foot tall projection that this person has done out of
Speaker 2: their apartment onto the side of this building. And it
Speaker 2: looks clear like you would sit there on the sidewalk
Speaker 2: and watch the game if you were just walking by
Speaker 2: or something. So they're doing fun stuff like that. There's
Speaker 2: a lot of craziness happening. There was a photo that
Speaker 2: I'll put up on see it now. This is of
Speaker 2: an entire plane and everybody is watching the Knicks game
Speaker 2: live on the plane at thirty thousand feet save for
Speaker 2: one guy who's watching Avatar. There's one in the middle,
Speaker 2: one dude watching the Blue Folks over on Avatar, and
Speaker 2: everybody else on this plane is watching the Knicks game
Speaker 2: as they go through the NBA Final. This is breaking
Speaker 2: through to the normies. And that's cool. That's awesome. I
Speaker 2: dig that. I think that's a really really cool thing.
Speaker 2: Let me get a screen show. I do also love
Speaker 2: the think different side of the guy who's like basketball. Nah,
Speaker 2: you know, I'm okay, I'm going to pass on that one,
Speaker 2: which I hate to say, would have probably been me.
Speaker 2: I watched the first like five minutes of the game.
Speaker 2: Did you watch any of it?
Speaker 8: Se light?
Speaker 1: I didn't. I forgot it was happening last night. Yeah.
Speaker 1: I would watch the first like five minutes or so,
Speaker 1: which was fun.
Speaker 2: I had a good time. I mean, it's really really
Speaker 2: really cool Nick's game on a flight. Soba on YouTube
Speaker 2: says that's at least a ten thousand lumen projector so
Speaker 2: it could be like a pretty like it could be
Speaker 2: pretty expensive. Yeah, how much would that cost? Because I
Speaker 2: see these all the time and it's say, hey, there's
Speaker 2: a special deal on Amazon, and you could get this projector,
Speaker 2: and I think, oh, I'm gonna get that. I don't
Speaker 2: know what the hell I'm going to project and where
Speaker 2: I'm going to project it. But I look at technology
Speaker 2: like that, as I'm sure Sea Line does too sometimes
Speaker 2: and I go.
Speaker 1: I want that. I want that thing. But how much
Speaker 1: would that cost? That's not a couple hundred bucks, right, Sony.
Speaker 1: These don't say ten thousand lumens. The first thing says
Speaker 1: fifteen hundred dollars. I don't but the rest of them
Speaker 1: are like thirty two thousand dollars, thirteen fourteen thousand dollars
Speaker 1: DLP projector, ten thousand lumen four K laser DLP projector
Speaker 1: from Panasonic, twenty one thousand, nine hundred and twenty nine
Speaker 1: dollars and ninety nine cents.
Speaker 2: He's given that to the neighbors for free. Well, this
Speaker 2: guy should be charging admission or something down there, if
Speaker 2: that's what he could be charged. Yeah, that too, Yeah,
Speaker 2: for God's sake.
Speaker 1: All right.
Speaker 2: So that was going on the plane. Almost everybody was
Speaker 2: watching the Knicks game. And then here's one of my
Speaker 2: favorite moments. Here on the streets, people were just pouring out,
Speaker 2: and they were excited after the Knicks one, but they
Speaker 2: didn't know yet how to channel their excite. Everything in
Speaker 2: the world as Celane so obviously knows right now with
Speaker 2: a young son, Okay, Jackson is just a little tyke,
Speaker 2: all right, he's almost he's always way to be three.
Speaker 1: Yeah, at this.
Speaker 2: Point in time and al long know, everything is about
Speaker 2: channeling energy. When when a little kid gets all like
Speaker 2: freaking out and they're all revved up and stuff, you
Speaker 2: have to channel their energy.
Speaker 1: It's like a classroom.
Speaker 2: You want to know, some of the smartest people dealing
Speaker 2: with this ask to ask elementary school teachers about this,
Speaker 2: because the elementary school teachers will go, oh yeah, yeah,
Speaker 2: at this time of day, you got to be smart.
Speaker 2: You got to take your whole class, and you have
Speaker 2: to redirect them so they don't freak out. Now, the
Speaker 2: people after the Knicks game, they're on the streets of
Speaker 2: New York City. They don't know what to do with
Speaker 2: this energy. But they got the energy and they're pumped up,
Speaker 2: and they see a UPS truck in the street, so
Speaker 2: they just start chanting ups.
Speaker 1: They just around this UPS truck. They just saw it
Speaker 1: started changing like they're just not I mean, they're not
Speaker 1: just particularly big vans of the United Parcel System Service,
Speaker 1: whichever one it is. I don't know if it's that.
Speaker 2: I literally think they were just looking for something to cheer.
Speaker 2: They wanted to cheer something whatever.
Speaker 1: It was like when they started chanting speech in the
Speaker 1: rest of the development, but they realized speech speech. Nobody gave
Speaker 1: us speech, and then.
Speaker 2: They got jeez, I thought after all that somebody might
Speaker 2: give a speech. But yeah, they're all channing ups at
Speaker 2: the UPS truck out there on the streets.
Speaker 1: United Parcel Service. There you go.
Speaker 2: I knew you'd get it eventually, and we'll get into
Speaker 2: some more of the drama that was happening at the
Speaker 2: top of the hour, including the celebrities, et cetera, et cetera.
Speaker 2: But a couple of emails to fire things off here
Speaker 2: on the show because your feedback matters, of course, I
Speaker 2: want to hear from you tips tips at the news
Speaker 2: junkie dot com. If you want to be anonymous on
Speaker 2: that side, put it on the top of your email.
Speaker 2: Justin didn't, so here is Justin's email to tips at
Speaker 2: thenewsjunkie dot com, subject property taxes. He says I agree
Speaker 2: with you about your opinion on property taxes. I have
Speaker 2: paid off a house and I feel I should be
Speaker 2: rewarded at some point by not paying any more property taxes.
Speaker 2: You reference the story on speeding tickets being given from
Speaker 2: a new camera being put in a school zone. They
Speaker 2: will find the money. That's very true. I forgot how
Speaker 2: much it was, but it was like several hundred thousand dollars.
Speaker 2: I think in twenty four hours or forty eight hours
Speaker 2: that they could have ticketed.
Speaker 1: From one speeding camera in one school zone.
Speaker 2: Trust me when I say they'll find the money, and
Speaker 2: they'll find it from places that make more sense. A
Speaker 2: social punishment of ticketing people in a speeding zone or
Speaker 2: a school zone. What's the worst that's going to happen?
Speaker 2: That revenue is going to dry up because people are
Speaker 2: no longer speeding around the school. Awesome, we'll find it
Speaker 2: somewhere else, you know what I mean. I think that's
Speaker 2: a really, really good thing personally. But he says example,
Speaker 2: the serve tax in Allale is an automotive testing facility
Speaker 2: that's funded by turnpike tolls, though through my employer, I
Speaker 2: visit the site often and it's a massive waste of
Speaker 2: tax payer dollars. There's waste all over the place. There
Speaker 2: always is, and there always will be. We won't be
Speaker 2: able to fix that stuff too much. But with the
Speaker 2: property taxes, the problem is they assess the value of
Speaker 2: your house even if you're not selling it. I don't
Speaker 2: believe that should be the case. I think your house,
Speaker 2: your home value should be assessed even if they're low balling.
Speaker 2: I don't care. Your home value should only be assessed
Speaker 2: upon sale. So when somebody buys a house, you purchase
Speaker 2: the house, and then they assess the value, and that's
Speaker 2: the property taxes that you start getting taxed at. The
Speaker 2: idea that they could just keep raising it forever because well,
Speaker 2: your neighbors all sold their houses and we're giving you
Speaker 2: a deal here, we could make this even more is unhinged.
Speaker 1: It's crazy. That's lunacy.
Speaker 2: And the idea that you just keep paying forever and
Speaker 2: ever and ever, and then all of a sudden, your
Speaker 2: property tax bill becomes as big as.
Speaker 1: A rent or a mortgage bill.
Speaker 2: Not only is that bad, but it's untenable over time.
Speaker 2: And I'll tell you my favorite side effect over this.
Speaker 2: The best thing that can happen if they push this
Speaker 2: through and a lot of people who own their homes
Speaker 2: outright will no longer have to pay property taxes in
Speaker 2: the state of Florida. This is really really good news
Speaker 2: for renters because if people have homes and they no
Speaker 2: longer have to pay property taxes on them, they can
Speaker 2: pass that along to you and you'll say, well, if
Speaker 2: they won't sean, they'll just keep the money. I think
Speaker 2: that the competition will increase because people will start lowering
Speaker 2: this because they're paying out less. And once things start
Speaker 2: to go in that direction, no, that's like a dog
Speaker 2: chase in its tail. It goes around and round round,
Speaker 2: and you might get something out of that. So this
Speaker 2: could be good for renters. It could be good for
Speaker 2: people who own it. It's going to be it's good
Speaker 2: for renters. If you're shopping, I feel yeah.
Speaker 1: I had to explain this to an Uber driver once
Speaker 1: because I was like, uh, he said, you know, I
Speaker 1: heard the the rent is supposed to be going down.
Speaker 1: You know it's been going down around here, but nothing's
Speaker 1: happened to me. I go, but the rent only goes down.
Speaker 1: You're looking for a new place, like new renters. Your
Speaker 1: landlord's never gonna call you up and go, guess what, Yeah,
Speaker 1: news you know. It's just like the thing with your
Speaker 1: pool guy, where your your pool guy said that his
Speaker 1: his chemicals were going up in price over the pandemic. Yes,
Speaker 1: so so is mine. And then and then your price
Speaker 1: went up, and so you were like, well, I don't
Speaker 1: think I'm gonna get that phone call where the pool
Speaker 1: guy goes good news chlorine. Chlorine futures have improved and
Speaker 1: the prices are going down. You don't usually get it.
Speaker 2: On the other side, somebody says a landowner who is
Speaker 2: renting out their primary residence, even if it's only on
Speaker 2: your primary residence, which is where it should stay and
Speaker 2: where it should be of that lowers costs for the
Speaker 2: person if they have a couple of other properties like that.
Speaker 1: That they're able to rent out.
Speaker 2: So if you have your home and it's paid off
Speaker 2: and you're paying less on your own property taxes, your
Speaker 2: expenditures are going to go down dramatically. Now that's only
Speaker 2: for a smaller percentage of rental units, or actually that
Speaker 2: the vast majority of places that you rent are from
Speaker 2: not from big corporations and stuff. They're from people who
Speaker 2: have just a handful of homes, So I really think
Speaker 2: that that could be a side effect that we see
Speaker 2: from this. Overall, it's good for people who have houses
Speaker 2: that are worth less one hundred and twenty five hundred
Speaker 2: and fifty thousand dollars houses.
Speaker 1: This should not be for rich people, you know.
Speaker 2: I wouldn't expect that, like even my whole house would
Speaker 2: be a situation where they'd go, well, Seanda that property taxes,
Speaker 2: I don't I wouldn't think they'd go Shawna, don't have
Speaker 2: to be any property taxes.
Speaker 1: I don't expect this is going to hit me.
Speaker 2: I think it's going to hit lower and mid lower
Speaker 2: middle income houses, and I find that to be a
Speaker 2: good thing. So that person seems to be in agreement.
Speaker 2: All right, we're going to take quick break. I had
Speaker 2: more emails to get to when we come back, I
Speaker 2: don't care what's happening. I don't care if we got
Speaker 2: chaos breaking out. I'm going back on a plane. I
Speaker 2: am going back on a plane. You can hit me
Speaker 2: with this song when it's time, if that's necessary, but
Speaker 2: we'll see that it up next on the news Junkie.
Speaker 1: I don't care if stee Lane hits me with a
Speaker 1: plane song.
Speaker 2: I know that I get mocked from time to time
Speaker 2: about talking about too many plane related stories on the news. Junkie,
Speaker 2: I know, what is this? The plane junkie. I've heard
Speaker 2: it all.
Speaker 1: I've heard all of the things.
Speaker 2: But what I have to tell you is this story
Speaker 2: is crazy enough that I think we absolutely need to
Speaker 2: include this in our coverage here today. And it's going
Speaker 2: about as viral as you could get because people freak
Speaker 2: out and go, hold on, is that happening with my pilot?
Speaker 1: Two? So just hit me with the back on the
Speaker 1: plane song, Get go, I want a checker.
Speaker 9: Fly surprise if the temp story as long as it.
Speaker 7: Flies wild, insane and as you met a guest.
Speaker 1: We're back on a plane.
Speaker 4: So what?
Speaker 1: All right?
Speaker 4: So what?
Speaker 2: A former pilot has been accused of flying thousands of
Speaker 2: passengers on flights without a proper license. This guy worked
Speaker 2: for Air Canada. Jeffrey Wall, fifty nine years old. This
Speaker 2: guy has been flying for seventeen years. Nice, and it
Speaker 2: turns out he never even had a pilot's license. This
Speaker 2: guy catched me if he canned himself onto this Air
Speaker 2: Canada flying team.
Speaker 1: I don't even know how you do that? Like, shouldn't
Speaker 1: that be the first thing they asked to take a
Speaker 1: picture of to make a photo copy. Yeah, I would
Speaker 1: think so. I would think so.
Speaker 2: He had been misrepresenting his credentials from two thousand and
Speaker 2: nine onwards.
Speaker 1: The story says, okay, is that the seventeen Yeah that
Speaker 1: seventeen years mah. So did he have previously a pilot's
Speaker 1: license and didn't renew it? Did he never have a
Speaker 1: pilot's license and use somebody else's your imagine being a
Speaker 1: pilot and not renewing your license. So this is the
Speaker 1: most important thing in my life, like the key thing
Speaker 1: that I need to do. Let's see what ABC said
Speaker 1: about this. Heelen, here we go.
Speaker 6: You're doctor licensed in family medicine showing up at the
Speaker 6: hospital to perform brain surgery. Police in Canada said that's
Speaker 6: what it was like for tens of thousands of airline
Speaker 6: passengers under the control of a pilot flying without the
Speaker 6: proper license. This morning, a veteran Air Canada pilot, Jeffrey Wall,
Speaker 6: seen here in his LinkedIn profile, is facing criminal charges
Speaker 6: after police said he flew hundreds of flights and tens
Speaker 6: of thousands of passengers jesus fraudulent license.
Speaker 1: The allegations, and.
Speaker 2: So they're saying a fake license, like a fraudulent license.
Speaker 2: This guy was using like you driving with a fake
Speaker 2: driver's license. But this guy was flying thousands and thousands
Speaker 2: of people for seventeen years on these Air Canada flights
Speaker 2: and he just, trust me, broded his way right into
Speaker 2: the cockpit and somehow they didn't notice for seventeen years.
Speaker 2: So they finally busted this guy. I think he's going
Speaker 2: to jails.
Speaker 7: So just a deliberate effort to circumvent systems designed to
Speaker 7: safe card the public.
Speaker 10: Wall was promoted to captain in two thousand and nine,
Speaker 10: and since then, police said Air Canada assigned him to
Speaker 10: nine hundred domestic and international flights, each one carrying as
Speaker 10: many as five hundred passengers.
Speaker 11: Wow, I was licensed to fly. He was a commercial pilot.
Speaker 11: He was not licensed to fly passengers, not licensed to
Speaker 11: fly passengers internationally. On seven triple seven, seven sixty seven
Speaker 11: second little more sence.
Speaker 1: Okay, hold on.
Speaker 2: So he was licensed to fly, but not to fly people, yes,
Speaker 2: And somehow they didn't notice that that was a problem.
Speaker 1: See. I tend to think that the levels at which
Speaker 1: you can fly and which planes gets very convoluted and confusing.
Speaker 1: For example, I am trying to get to the bottom
Speaker 1: of this in the reddit r slash flying and they
Speaker 1: they had like a link to one of the stories
Speaker 1: about this. Yeah, and they're like doing all the comments
Speaker 1: and I have no clue what the hell they're talking
Speaker 1: about here. Like, so you didn't have ATPL, but somehow
Speaker 1: was hired in passenger check rides, that might be possible.
Speaker 1: CPL is blue, ATPL is green, So you know you
Speaker 1: know the license just by looking at it. You should know.
Speaker 1: I have CPL helicopter and ATPL airplane. They're in the
Speaker 1: same booklet. I'm surprised the CPL would be surprises CPL
Speaker 1: would be hired by ac there's hope for me yet,
Speaker 1: How hold on, how is it?
Speaker 2: How is it that you are able to fly a
Speaker 2: plane without shouldn't you have to show your license every
Speaker 2: time or something?
Speaker 1: No talent? Hey, all right, we're getting on the show
Speaker 1: to show it to whom.
Speaker 2: This is still the level where you could just put
Speaker 2: on a little pilot's hat and well, I'm here to
Speaker 2: fly the plane, ladies and gentlemen.
Speaker 1: When you're the captain of the airplane and you think
Speaker 1: you should have to show your license to somebody. The
Speaker 1: person who would be checking your license is way beneath
Speaker 1: you and probably has no idea what the difference is
Speaker 1: between them.
Speaker 2: Well, nobody can exactly pull you over. So when did
Speaker 2: they check? Apparently never?
Speaker 1: Not in seventeen YEARSVPL is Commercial Pilot's license. It's your
Speaker 1: first professional license, allowing you to get paid to fly
Speaker 1: the ATPL is Airline Transport pilot license. That's the highest
Speaker 1: level certification. So it sounds like he just didn't finish
Speaker 1: his schooling. Oh yeah, it could be. Hold on, let's
Speaker 1: see what else, say, said.
Speaker 12: Tens of thousands of passengers poll He said Wall was
Speaker 12: caught after Canadian transportation officials detected anomalies and documents he
Speaker 12: presented in March twenty twenty five during a random check
Speaker 12: at Toronto's Pearson International Airport. Eric Canada insisted safety was
Speaker 12: not compromised. Pilots undergo mandatory recurrent training every six months.
Speaker 1: Wellise aren't so sure.
Speaker 11: This is very similar to a doctor that is licensed
Speaker 11: to practice family medicine but is doing brain surgery in
Speaker 11: their office.
Speaker 2: Is it don't think that will low that plane? Yeah,
Speaker 2: this is an airport where they come in real low. Yeah,
Speaker 2: showing as b roll here. But I don't think what
Speaker 2: the cops said was right because it's more what it
Speaker 2: actually is, and a lot of people pointing this out
Speaker 2: in chat. What it actually is is somebody who knows
Speaker 2: how to fly a plane and knows who how to
Speaker 2: fly a big plane, but doesn't have the particular license
Speaker 2: classification to fly that plane and fly it with passengers.
Speaker 2: And the person is still passing training and stuff that's
Speaker 2: going on. So it's not like just some random doctor
Speaker 2: going I'll be doing the brain surgery today.
Speaker 1: Like if you took a class on how to ride
Speaker 1: a motorcycle, you have a license to drive a regular vehicle, right,
Speaker 1: four wheels, doors, enclosed vehicle. But you took a motorcycle
Speaker 1: class and you learn to ride the motorcycle and you're
Speaker 1: pretty damn good at it. But you know what, you
Speaker 1: never did. You never got that endorsement.
Speaker 2: But you still know how to drive the motorcycle.
Speaker 1: The guy flew nine hundred flights yeah in Canada.
Speaker 2: Honest to god, I think I'm turning the corner on this.
Speaker 2: Maybe they should just give him the license. Yeah, it's like,
Speaker 2: what more do you want from this guy? If this
Speaker 2: guy had zero pilot's license and pulled this off. I
Speaker 2: would be shocked, but I would also be vindicated in
Speaker 2: my whole I can land a plane thing that I've
Speaker 2: done for many years on this show. Yeah, this was
Speaker 2: almost almost like the story where the guy stole the
Speaker 2: plane and was joy riding it and doing the barrel
Speaker 2: roll and stuff, and he said, do you guys think
Speaker 2: I could land this thing? And they're like, I don't know,
Speaker 2: and we could do our best to tell you. He
Speaker 2: how much trouble will I be and if I land
Speaker 2: this thing, and like, we don't worry. We're gonna figure
Speaker 2: that out afterwards. And he was so worried about getting
Speaker 2: in trouble because he had stolen the plane and went
Speaker 2: for a joy ride. And all I can think of
Speaker 2: afterwards was like, if you successfully pulled off a safe landing,
Speaker 2: there are certain feats where I go, there should be
Speaker 2: some minor reward for that, like maybe less of a
Speaker 2: punishment that guy stole the plane to begin with. Yeah,
Speaker 2: I know you did the bad thing, but then like,
Speaker 2: you know, you did something pretty impressive on the other side,
Speaker 2: and I think that it's not all bad.
Speaker 1: It's not all bad.
Speaker 2: Yeah, Yeah, Skyking is the documentary that I was talking about.
Speaker 2: But let us know what you think and we'll see
Speaker 2: how they handle this. But Air Canada says a pilot
Speaker 2: has been arrested after authorities alleged he spent at least
Speaker 2: seventeen years flying over five hundred commercial flights without a
Speaker 2: valid pilot's license.
Speaker 1: Give us your thoughts over at thenewsjunki dot com with
Speaker 1: the dispatch or an email. I thought you were going
Speaker 1: to say more than out Yeah, yeah, no this per
Speaker 1: I was letting you finish. This per on the texting
Speaker 1: service used a much better analogy than I did with
Speaker 1: my motorcycle crap. It's like a CDL for planes. Okay,
Speaker 1: so it's like if you had a license but you're
Speaker 1: driving big trucks, you know, like long haul trucking, and
Speaker 1: you didn't get your CDL. That's a lot better of
Speaker 1: a comparison.
Speaker 2: I wonder why this guy didn't just go get it done.
Speaker 2: There's a story like this. Remember the nurse that we
Speaker 2: talked about We got to go to break. Remember the
Speaker 2: nurse we talked about, and she was practicing for years
Speaker 2: and years and years and years, and she had used
Speaker 2: one of her friend's names, yeah, and she her friend
Speaker 2: had a license, but she did not. She was using
Speaker 2: that other person's name. And I said, at some point,
Speaker 2: you've done the work. Yeah, but if you just look
Speaker 2: back for you hurt anybody. You can't go back and
Speaker 2: change your paperwork because then they then they know you lied.
Speaker 2: So it's like you, you love this job and you
Speaker 2: don't want to get caught in the lie. But I
Speaker 2: could do with things the right way, and I will
Speaker 2: not be rewarded for doing that, eggs because I did
Speaker 2: them the wrong way to begin.
Speaker 1: With, exactly. Give us your thoughts on all of this
Speaker 1: good stuff. Send your dispatch over at thenewschunkie dot com
Speaker 1: right now quick break. When we come back, we'll get
Speaker 1: it to more of the drummer on the Knicks win
Speaker 1: and the mayhem afterwards.
Speaker 2: I've got some lego updates. I got emails, some people
Speaker 2: are firing off some interesting.
Speaker 1: Ones, and we'll get to your feedback as well. It's
Speaker 1: all coming up next on the news Chunky.
Speaker 2: All right, lots of emails coming in. I'll get to
Speaker 2: a couple of those here in just a moment. The
Speaker 2: big story last night was everybody freaking out after the
Speaker 2: Knicks game. Everybody freaking out during the next game. Either
Speaker 2: you're not a sports fan. This has become like a
Speaker 2: big kind of breakthrough thing. You got Taylor Swift out
Speaker 2: there for some reason. I have no idea she's an
Speaker 2: insta basketball fan.
Speaker 1: I guess You've.
Speaker 2: Got all these incredibly rich people spending a crazy amount
Speaker 2: of money purchasing tickets to go see a bunch of
Speaker 2: rich people play basketball.
Speaker 1: You know how it goes. Maybe she carried to rent
Speaker 1: out Madison Square Garden for three days. If she got
Speaker 1: one Knicks.
Speaker 2: Ticket, yeah please, they might be able to get more
Speaker 2: than that for for what she paid. But I did
Speaker 2: see her at the game, and there were a lot
Speaker 2: of people who are annoyed, and.
Speaker 1: Everything was so over top, over the top.
Speaker 2: It can't just be like, hey, I am here at
Speaker 2: the basketball game.
Speaker 1: It has to be like I'm the biggest fan of
Speaker 1: the River was. It has to be like some they
Speaker 1: cute little theme for their their shirts, their shirts.
Speaker 2: Stevie Nicks, Yeah, I have it here, it's hers, says
Speaker 2: Stevie Nicks. Like hey, the Knicks, but Stevie Nicks, Yeah,
Speaker 2: then they got worse. One of her friends was Nickelback,
Speaker 2: which is that's just weak, and then nick Nick Cole
Speaker 2: Kidman is one of the other ones, which is not
Speaker 2: Nicole Kidman wearing the shirt.
Speaker 1: I mean, I don't know, I don't know.
Speaker 2: I don't want to hate people for just going to
Speaker 2: watch a basketball game, but it seems like I knew
Speaker 2: somebody one time who Actually I'm not gonna tell that
Speaker 2: story never mind, because every once in a while I
Speaker 2: realize we're on in markets where if I tell the story,
Speaker 2: the story will be heard by the person who the
Speaker 2: story is about. But suffice you ever know, sometimes you
Speaker 2: see people who are are hanging out and watching these games,
Speaker 2: and you go, do you actually really like this? At
Speaker 2: least I'm consistent you wouldn't see me at the game.
Speaker 1: Like, yeah, I'm the biggest Nicks fan ever.
Speaker 2: Because if you did, you'd go, well, that's not right.
Speaker 2: But she's she's over the top. This is the greatest
Speaker 2: they have. I know they're having fun. I know, I
Speaker 2: know I am letting them have fun. I don't really
Speaker 2: care that much about it, but it is a little much.
Speaker 2: Sometimes they go, Okay, are you really the guy next
Speaker 2: to you is at every game?
Speaker 1: That's what I think about.
Speaker 2: I go, the guy next to you goes to every
Speaker 2: single game and he's a big fan and he knows
Speaker 2: who all the players are. And I don't want to
Speaker 2: do that moment where I go, hey, here's the deal.
Speaker 2: You're wearing a Nirvana shirt and you're fourteen. Name four
Speaker 2: Nirvana songs or I'm going to beat you up right now.
Speaker 1: Uh huh. I don't want to do that. But it's
Speaker 1: kind of the mood that I think you get, you know,
Speaker 1: I think there could be a different version of this,
Speaker 1: where like I would rather Taylor Swift and her friends
Speaker 1: make some custom shirts and get into the game and
Speaker 1: have fun. Then Ariana Grande sit on her phone the
Speaker 1: whole time and I just made that name up. I'm like,
Speaker 1: I don't know that that's what she would do, but
Speaker 1: like that, you know.
Speaker 2: I don't need them to be one radical example of
Speaker 2: the other. But there's just something about when you when
Speaker 2: you're well.
Speaker 1: This is why people.
Speaker 2: Say everybody in the exactly the same way as it's
Speaker 2: Snoop Froggy. But there's a reason why things like fair
Speaker 2: weather fan and bandwagoner and those those terms exist. They
Speaker 2: exist for stuff like this because do you think that
Speaker 2: this person otherwise was going to be watching this game,
Speaker 2: and if they're not, then it kind of feels a
Speaker 2: little bit phony.
Speaker 1: Again, I don't care. This doesn't let me lose any sleep.
Speaker 2: But and I'm not looking for the angry Swifties Abraham
Speaker 2: Dragonfred No, I'm just saying that if you were going
Speaker 2: to point out bandwaggoners, that does look like it. And
Speaker 2: I'm not the only one suggesting this. Listen, I would
Speaker 2: be a bandwagoner too. She would just be a much
Speaker 2: richer one than me. Yeah, she's good at being a
Speaker 2: bandwaggoner with that much money, Sean, we don't want gatekeeping, remember,
Speaker 2: let them enjoy. Yeah, sure, sure, this is not a
Speaker 2: hard take from here. There was other people who were
Speaker 2: weighing in on this, like the sports broadcaster guys. Let's
Speaker 2: see what they said.
Speaker 1: Here we go.
Speaker 10: No, I think Gray was just saying her name for
Speaker 10: no reason to distract me.
Speaker 1: No, that's I'm aware with that long pony tew Ain't
Speaker 1: that her in the blue? Yeah? This is the radio broadcast,
Speaker 1: I guess for the Knicks. Why does it sound like
Speaker 1: but I don't know this during a break, I think
Speaker 1: it is this guy.
Speaker 2: Does this guy have to google Taylor Swift live at
Speaker 2: the basketball game to see if she is watching the game,
Speaker 2: if she's really the person who's there. That's that's more
Speaker 2: upsetting than the nickelback shirt. You don't know who Taylor
Speaker 2: is Swift.
Speaker 1: Yeah, sure, he's taking a picture for his wife. They
Speaker 1: said he trashed her. Okay that the other person says,
Speaker 1: she's not a Knicks fan. Get out of here, girl.
Speaker 1: So these were the radio broadcasters.
Speaker 2: Monica McNutt is broadcaster's name, and Monica McNutt wants Taylor
Speaker 2: Swift out of the game. All right, name h.
Speaker 1: McNutt. She's already Monica McNutt.
Speaker 2: So Monica McNutt and Tyler Murray were doing the coverage
Speaker 2: I guess for the Nick's radio feed, and they were
Speaker 2: at least one of them, at least the mcnuts side
Speaker 2: not very thrilled about that. Some of the actual bad
Speaker 2: behavior was somebody threw an egg at Wemby. That's the
Speaker 2: big tall guy that they call the alien. I saw him.
Speaker 2: He's walking along the sidewalk out there by the team
Speaker 2: boss and somebody just drills them. They just they throw
Speaker 2: an egg from across the venue and it drilled them
Speaker 2: right in the head. I guess they threw a couple
Speaker 2: of them. Not impressive. He's a big target.
Speaker 1: Throw an egg at Kevin Harden.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it is is easier to wallop them when you're
Speaker 2: throwing an egg at at the Wemby guy because he's
Speaker 2: seven foot six or something.
Speaker 1: But people do this.
Speaker 2: This is sort of the sort of mayhem that things
Speaker 2: boiled down into sometimes where you go, you're.
Speaker 1: From the other two, We're gonna throw stuff at you.
Speaker 1: Did they actually hit him because he didn't seem to react.
Speaker 1: The second one he did get hit. I think his
Speaker 1: head lowered a little bit. They threw two eggs at him,
Speaker 1: at least there's one missed him. Second one right there
Speaker 1: hit him in the back of the head and brakes,
Speaker 1: and there's other eggs flying by him at that moment
Speaker 1: in time, and they're they're flicking them off middle fingers,
Speaker 1: and holy cow, everybody gets so serious about all this
Speaker 1: stuff all of a sudden. What else do we have?
Speaker 10: Oh?
Speaker 2: I guess somebody was hectoring Jerry Seinfeld, who also was
Speaker 2: there hectoring. Yeah, yeah, you know, they were like heckling
Speaker 2: them on the on the sidewalk. Hectoring works too, I think, right,
Speaker 2: look up hectoring. If I'm yeah, you can call me out.
Speaker 2: But if I'm right, you have to say I'm sorry,
Speaker 2: I don't know words. If I use the correct word
Speaker 2: and you try to correct me, maybe I got it wrong,
Speaker 2: I'll apologize.
Speaker 1: See hectoring hectoring, talking or behaving an allowed aggressively, forceful
Speaker 1: or bullying manner to intimidate someone into doing what you want.
Speaker 1: All right, say it. I don't know words. My name
Speaker 1: is Celan, and I don't know words. I think I
Speaker 1: know words. I've never heard you just because you don't
Speaker 1: know that word, Well, that's my proof that you don't
Speaker 1: know the words.
Speaker 2: Don't Sean uses eighteen hundreds vocab from the it was hectoringham.
Speaker 1: See I think eighteen hundreds is a bit late for that.
Speaker 1: The origin of hectoring stems from Hector, the valiant trojan
Speaker 1: prince in Homer's Iliad. Okay, get bat here. You could
Speaker 1: do that for any word.
Speaker 2: The origin of lunch probably goes back to some really
Speaker 2: old time too, but that doesn't mean that it's an
Speaker 2: old word.
Speaker 1: What are you doing? Let me get to the Seinfeld thing.
Speaker 2: So anyways, as I probably see, as I properly said,
Speaker 2: mister Jerry Seinfeld was being hectored by by some some
Speaker 2: na're do well on the sidewalk who was looking to
Speaker 2: engage in fisticuffs. If I'm honest, Uh huh. It looked
Speaker 2: like there was some you know, particularly bad tendencies going
Speaker 2: on with this individual.
Speaker 1: And they find another word tend wasn't old enough. I
Speaker 1: don't have your sexel, your satchel of old man terminology.
Speaker 1: I was just moving past.
Speaker 2: And why that that wasn't necessary? Okay, I was the
Speaker 2: one who had hectoring that. I had multiple other words afterwards,
Speaker 2: fisticuffs by the way, I had fisticuffs as well.
Speaker 1: Uh huh.
Speaker 2: And then I dropped it at that. I could have
Speaker 2: gone further. Okay, here's the hectoring of Jerry Seinfeld.
Speaker 1: There you go.
Speaker 8: What up?
Speaker 1: Can we get a preprestent? Can we get a pre
Speaker 1: come give? It doesn't exist?
Speaker 2: So the guy comes up, he's got the annoying wireless
Speaker 2: mic that he's holding in his hands like every YouTube
Speaker 2: or ever, and they always try to get Jerry Seinfeld
Speaker 2: to do the jew stuff.
Speaker 1: They're like, you're a Jewish guy, I want you to
Speaker 1: say free Palestine.
Speaker 2: And he says it doesn't exist, which is going to
Speaker 2: I'm sure make people react very calmly. At least he
Speaker 2: didn't get egged on the street though he didn't have
Speaker 2: that also out there being a Knicks fan for the moment,
Speaker 2: Sydney Sweeney, all of the people's were there, All of
Speaker 2: the people Sidney Sweeney was on Instagram. She also revelation
Speaker 2: only has four toes on each foot. Here she showed
Speaker 2: her feet in a picture that she ended up doing
Speaker 2: and there you go, so that picture was saved a lot,
Speaker 2: you think, so, yeah, I mean, she doesn't really have
Speaker 2: interesting feet? Is Sidney Sweeney's pose?
Speaker 1: Are wearing basketballs? How is that not? I'm saying they're not.
Speaker 2: Interesting in like a sexy way. There's nothing a lot
Speaker 2: of them. I don't think feet are interesting in a
Speaker 2: sexy way. But the people that do.
Speaker 1: They like feet, like all kinds of feet. This is
Speaker 1: a run of the mill foot.
Speaker 2: You know, maybe I don't know enough about feet in
Speaker 2: what I should be into, but I just see a
Speaker 2: run of the bill foot and the little basketball things
Speaker 2: are you know, not for me, but somebody likes it.
Speaker 2: I'm sure I'm not gonna put the feet on.
Speaker 1: See it. Now, for your feet, people, you'll have to
Speaker 1: you have to look for that yourself over on the internets,
Speaker 1: so you can rate your your view of how you
Speaker 1: feel about all of this. Sean tell us, who has.
Speaker 2: Sexy feet, don't. I don't have anybody with sexy feet
Speaker 2: in mind. I'm just saying those didn't look like particularly
Speaker 2: sexy feet. Corney has sexier feet than that by a
Speaker 2: wide stretch, way better ten out of ten in comparison.
Speaker 1: This just looks like a regular feet. Are we gonna pretend? Everybody?
Speaker 1: Why are we pretending? Is that what we're doing? Because
Speaker 1: we all know.
Speaker 2: That there obviously has to be like sexy feet and
Speaker 2: ugly feet, right Like, you know, somebody wops out of
Speaker 2: foot and you go, holy cap, look at those Look
Speaker 2: at those, man, those are bad. And then somebody pops
Speaker 2: out of foot and you're like, oh god, those are nice.
Speaker 2: Those are nice looking feet. Mahaviorrossa says feet are not sexy.
Speaker 2: Some of them have to be. It just has to
Speaker 2: be like everything you think of to you don't get
Speaker 2: me too distracted here, all right, But but the fact
Speaker 2: is every body part that you pick, there's a sexy
Speaker 2: version of it. In an ugly version. Yes, there's absolutely
Speaker 2: a sexy nose and an ugly nose. You don't believe
Speaker 2: that I'm talking about body parts that I pick. Oh no,
Speaker 2: I see, I see when I look at you, I go, okay, Sea,
Speaker 2: Len's got a nice beard, right, but I don't even
Speaker 2: know if I would call it sexy, But one hundred
Speaker 2: percent there's somebody out there with an ugly beard. Right,
Speaker 2: So you have like all different sides of all of
Speaker 2: this stuff. And I think that that's you know, I
Speaker 2: think that's worth pointing out. I've already done it, so
Speaker 2: it doesn't matter. Let us know what you think. Sen
Speaker 2: Us a dispatch over thenews junkie dot com. All right,
Speaker 2: lots of emails coming in. Let's see here Kurt was
Speaker 2: talking about the pilot and he says that pilot that
Speaker 2: didn't have a license. The guy could be qualified in
Speaker 2: the seven fifty seven et cetera planes for cargo, but
Speaker 2: not passengers. Betty got down the line too far and
Speaker 2: then he couldn't own up, says Kurt, exactly. Yeah, that's
Speaker 2: kind of what we were saying, Like you get too
Speaker 2: trapped in it, like the nurse did, or like the
Speaker 2: pilot did, and then going legit is kind of impossible
Speaker 2: because if you try to fix what you were lying about,
Speaker 2: fix your license, fix your credentials. Then they'll know that
Speaker 2: you were lying to begin with, and that makes it
Speaker 2: a hell of a lot harder.
Speaker 1: Especially when you're lying about something that it's a pretty
Speaker 1: big deal to lie about. Yeah, whether or not you
Speaker 1: are licensed to operate a plane and fly paying customers
Speaker 1: from you know, continent to continent, country to country, that's
Speaker 1: a that's a big deal to the people who are
Speaker 1: inside that plane.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I agree, I think so for sure if they knew,
Speaker 2: Like just if you announced in the middle of the flight,
Speaker 2: that's how you know. If you stood up in the
Speaker 2: middle of flight, You're like, ladies and gentlemen, this pilot
Speaker 2: does not have a license. How are people going to react?
Speaker 2: People are you're at.
Speaker 1: This point because you're passing the plane.
Speaker 2: Wouldn't believe you you're at thirty thousand Is he plying
Speaker 2: to flying the plane? Then your cruising at thirty thousand feet?
Speaker 2: They go, ladies and gentleman, I have an announcement. The
Speaker 2: pilot does not have a pilot's license. I think I
Speaker 2: would be inconsolable. I would say, I don't care how
Speaker 2: he got us this far. I'm freaking out right now.
Speaker 2: Another email coming in Anonymous says the tips of the
Speaker 2: news Junkie dot com rental properties will still have to
Speaker 2: pay property taxes. Sean I mentioned that somebody brought that
Speaker 2: up earlier. A bunch of people did. I mentioned that,
Speaker 2: So I think, first of all, I think the idea
Speaker 2: of people paying less property taxes is good for lower
Speaker 2: income people or lower middle class people. Those are going
Speaker 2: to be the people most affected by the lowering of
Speaker 2: property taxes.
Speaker 1: Anywhere, So I think that's good.
Speaker 2: I think we should give people who are on the
Speaker 2: lower rungs a break as much as we can. In fact,
Speaker 2: this is only going to impact people with homes that
Speaker 2: are about one hundred and fifty thousand to two hundred
Speaker 2: maybe two hundred fifty thousand if they get the most
Speaker 2: that they were looking for, which is not people who
Speaker 2: are rich to say the very least. So yes, it
Speaker 2: only affects your main home when they say you don't
Speaker 2: have to pay property taxes on it. But what it
Speaker 2: can do that is really really good is it can
Speaker 2: be the tipping point that pushes people from saying, well,
Speaker 2: if I can do that, maybe I won't keep renting,
Speaker 2: maybe I will buy a house and I'll switch over
Speaker 2: into be an owner instead of a renter, and then
Speaker 2: all of a sudden, the rental market starts to open
Speaker 2: up more, and that changes the landscape that you're seeing
Speaker 2: out there of rental costs. Also, I do think it
Speaker 2: matters that the person is probably going to have a
Speaker 2: primary residence in the state of Florida, and if that
Speaker 2: person has to pay no property taxes at their primary residence,
Speaker 2: at least to a certain amount, it's going to free
Speaker 2: up money for that person. I just don't see how
Speaker 2: this makes things more expensive, right. I think this could
Speaker 2: be good. Not as good for renters, but I think
Speaker 2: there could be a little side effect that could be
Speaker 2: good for them, And certainly for people who own houses
Speaker 2: one hundred and fifty thousand dollars or so, you could
Speaker 2: be in a nice little spot, especially if you can
Speaker 2: figure out a way to pay that off. I haven't
Speaker 2: heard a single compelling argument against doing this, if I'm
Speaker 2: honest with you. But yeah, I mean, I happen to
Speaker 2: think people who don't have a lot of money paying
Speaker 2: less taxes is a net win for everybody. You can
Speaker 2: feel free to disagree. Give me your thoughts over at
Speaker 2: the Neewsyunkie dot Com. A couple of things real quick.

Speaker 2: somebody I don't know, anonymous, but they want to have
Speaker 2: their thoughts on the show, so they hit the anonymous button.
Speaker 1: Here it is ALLU Sean.
Speaker 8: I highly recommend you implement some sort of a text
Speaker 8: to speech feature, but only for score mics and maybe
Speaker 8: secret shows, as if you play them on the Earth,
Speaker 8: you're liable to have to dump off of them.
Speaker 1: That's true.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, that's that's true. I appreciate that, Anonymous. I
Speaker 2: don't know if we'll add that right now. We're working
Speaker 2: on just one thing at a time, but we do
Speaker 2: have the ability for you to at least do what
Speaker 2: you just did and join us with your thoughts on
Speaker 2: anything happening on the show. Here with an anonymous dispatch.
Speaker 2: I had to point this out I love dogs. I
Speaker 2: love dog people. I think that is the ultimate green flag.
Speaker 2: If you like animals, I think it usually signals that
Speaker 2: you at least care about living beings in a way
Speaker 2: that I want to engage with you on other things.
Speaker 2: And when I saw this story, I was just imagining,
Speaker 2: just imagine what my dog Lady would be going through
Speaker 2: se Lane's dog Lexi, you know the dogs in our lives.
Speaker 2: This was a German shepherd, Cealin, and the German shepherd
Speaker 2: was out with its family and they were at the
Speaker 2: beach and there was an inflatable kayak and the German
Speaker 2: shepherd jumped in it and he's just They're.
Speaker 1: Like, ah, look at him, he's got he's chilling in
Speaker 1: the kayak.
Speaker 2: And then it got pulled out a little further and
Speaker 2: then a little further and they're like.
Speaker 1: Where's Bruce going. Bruce the German shepherd is out.
Speaker 2: To see and he ended up drifting miles and miles
Speaker 2: away on the kayak.
Speaker 1: I made it to Cuba. That's crazy, you know, with
Speaker 1: a little Bruce, the German shepherd.
Speaker 2: He was in the kayak, inflatable kayak, and now Bruce
Speaker 2: is looking around going I have made a mistake.
Speaker 1: This was a big one.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I fear that I have made a mistake here
Speaker 2: and he's in this inflatable and they had to send
Speaker 2: the coast Guard in some other places out to rescue
Speaker 2: this dog.
Speaker 1: It was off the coast.
Speaker 2: Of Northumberland and they had a bunch of volunteers go
Speaker 2: out and finally they caught up with the dog miles
Speaker 2: out to sea, still in the inflatable kayak you can
Speaker 2: see here, and just kind of wandering along.
Speaker 1: Hello, buddy, Hey, buddy, there he is. How are you hello?
Speaker 4: You to head off the longster the then Norway.
Speaker 5: They got him.
Speaker 1: We're gonna keep you on some warm.
Speaker 2: It was two full miles two full miles off shore
Speaker 2: because he just got dragged out there after jumping in
Speaker 2: this little inflatable kayak.
Speaker 1: I can't imagine what the dog was thinking the harbor.
Speaker 9: Yeah, have you drink?
Speaker 1: Have you drink? This is his honor with the boy's
Speaker 1: a good boy.
Speaker 12: Get it back on you.
Speaker 9: Hey.
Speaker 1: He was out to see for a little while.
Speaker 2: He was returned to his owner, who was overjoyed to
Speaker 2: see him again, which is just kind of adorable in
Speaker 2: many different ways.
Speaker 1: But they ended up finding him.
Speaker 2: I'll tell you this I thought about this happening with
Speaker 2: Lady my Cavalier King Charles Spaniel, but it would never
Speaker 2: happen because she would not get near the water to
Speaker 2: begin with.
Speaker 1: Yeah, you don't have to, I mean you could. You
Speaker 1: could do this and still stay dry. I think that's
Speaker 1: part of the problem. Yeah, I mean depends on where
Speaker 1: the kayak was to begin with. But I think the
Speaker 1: kayak was in the water and it got in it somehow.
Speaker 1: But even if even if kayak was on land, I
Speaker 1: don't think Lady would jump in it. I don't think
Speaker 1: Lady the dog would hop up in that thing. This
Speaker 1: sucker was. That might be a game changer.
Speaker 2: You put a couple of cheeseballs in that thing, and
Speaker 2: she does go nuts for those, no matter how old
Speaker 2: they actually are. All right, we'll get some more of
Speaker 2: your responses, your feedback, all of that good stuff. In
Speaker 2: just a moment on the show, I tease this thing
Speaker 2: about this man who's been going viral, and I think
Speaker 2: he's pretty adorable. And this guy's alle hundred years old,
Speaker 2: one hundred years old. He's been going viral. He's living
Speaker 2: at a care home, which is a version in England
Speaker 2: of like an assisted living facility.
Speaker 1: And he's in good spirits.
Speaker 2: This has been viewed one point five times on one
Speaker 2: point five million times, excuse me on social media. One
Speaker 2: point five wouldn't be enough to escalate it to be
Speaker 2: talking about here on the show.
Speaker 1: If you could be viewed a half a time on
Speaker 1: social media, I.
Speaker 2: Would have pulled that off by now, if if that
Speaker 2: was a possibility. But Bernard Gilbert, here he is. We
Speaker 2: watched the video. I think here, oh, here he is.
Speaker 2: He's dancing. Yeah, okay, all right, yeah, it's just.
Speaker 1: In his room. He's still breaking it down at one
Speaker 1: hundred years old.
Speaker 2: Rate his dance moves yeah, oh look they're a little
Speaker 2: bit further now rate his dance moves over on chat

Speaker 2: more than one point five million views on social media.
Speaker 2: Bernard Gilbert began dancing in the nineteen forties at just
Speaker 2: sixteen years old, and it said despite being reluctant to
Speaker 2: swap the soccer field for the ballroom, he went on
Speaker 2: to win awards and he even became a dance teacher
Speaker 2: at the age of seventy four years old. He says,
Speaker 2: I love dancing. Once I get on the floor, I
Speaker 2: forget about everything else. I just concentrate about what I'm
Speaker 2: doing and it brings me alive, he said, still out
Speaker 2: there and dancing at one hundred years old. You guys
Speaker 2: are giving him a six point four. It's a little brutal.
Speaker 2: He is a hundred. Yeah, somebody gives him one hundred
Speaker 2: out of one hundred, all right, Okay, seven out of
Speaker 2: ten broken hips. Okay, seven's not bad. I think a

Speaker 7: speakers are on a hot sheet with Sea Lane.
Speaker 1: That's right, the top five stories in the nonsense news,
Speaker 1: brought to you by that mortgage guy Don. And we
Speaker 1: start with Mackenzie Shirrilla because we heard from her or
Speaker 1: you know, a week or two ago, that she's been
Speaker 1: a little bored. She's been bored in prison. Prison is
Speaker 1: so boring for McKenzie. But she's not going to be
Speaker 1: bored to tears anymore because they've they've given her a
Speaker 1: new job. They say, she's finally landed a new job
Speaker 1: behind bars. And this just doesn't seem like she's something
Speaker 1: she would have done had she been a free woman.
Speaker 1: But Mackenzie is employed as a food service where worker
Speaker 1: at the Ohio Reformatory for Women in Marysville. According to
Speaker 1: a prison spokesperson, is that lunch lady. Is she a
Speaker 1: lunch late It sounds lunch lady adjacent? Ask for how
Speaker 1: much she's making. That's not a matter of public record
Speaker 1: per Ohio law, but they say, in general, how much
Speaker 1: do you think inmates can make per month? It's not
Speaker 1: a lot.
Speaker 2: I think it's really really low. But fifty bucks is
Speaker 2: that too high?
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's too high. They say in general, inmates can
Speaker 1: make up to twenty four dollars a month. Wooo, got some.
Speaker 1: But I mean she probably does have access to more food.
Speaker 1: I guess if you're the food service worker, I don't
Speaker 1: know if they write you up for eating the food.
Speaker 1: But she's got something to occupy her time. After telling
Speaker 1: her mom Natalie, she was bored as hell. During the
Speaker 1: same call, she told her mom she didn't think prison
Speaker 1: officials were to allow her to work because of her
Speaker 1: criminal charges, but it looks like she had them all wrong.
Speaker 1: So you know, get to work. Mackenzie and make them
Speaker 1: jelly sandwiches or whatever. There is a ex pro wrestler
Speaker 1: and actor by the name of Tyler Mayne. He's been
Speaker 1: an X Men. He also played Michael Myers in one
Speaker 1: of the Rob Zombie movies, and he has announced sadly
Speaker 1: that he just started chemo. He is now one of
Speaker 1: the one in seven hundred and fifty men that will
Speaker 1: be diagnosed with breast cancer in their lifetime. Very rare
Speaker 1: male breast cancer. Anyhow, he said it was kind of
Speaker 1: embarrassed to reveal it, you know, in his social media
Speaker 1: and stuff. He said, it's rarely talked about. It's usually
Speaker 1: found at later stages and has worse outcomes. I want
Speaker 1: to change that. Yeah, I think that stuff is good.
Speaker 1: I'm sure you do too.
Speaker 2: Like women feel this way sometimes about breast cancer or
Speaker 2: other sorts of cancer that are maybe more private, and
Speaker 2: guys feel this same way, and it's like, hey, you know,
Speaker 2: what better to be alive than anything, So it's important.
Speaker 1: The actor who gosh does it say which part he played?
Speaker 1: He was one of the X Men in one of
Speaker 1: the X Men movies, but it doesn't say in the
Speaker 1: article I think got scrubbed out come along for my
Speaker 1: journey to kick this thing, and they asked, send this
Speaker 1: to ten of your friends and have them follow me
Speaker 1: because people need to hear. So he's getting followers out
Speaker 1: of it too, all right, But yeah, he was I
Speaker 1: think a little embarrassed because of the breast cancer part.
Speaker 1: Most people think of that as a woman's disease, but
Speaker 1: it does affect men. It just says, let's start in
Speaker 1: talking about it. One in seven hundred and fifty five
Speaker 1: men will be diagnosed with breast cancer in their lifetime
Speaker 1: and if caught early, very treatable. So good luck to
Speaker 1: mister Tyler Maine. Tim Allen was caught in an not
Speaker 1: caught because that sounds like he did something bad, but
Speaker 1: they got him in an interview and they asked him, Hey,
Speaker 1: when are we finally going to see you know, they've
Speaker 1: done it with all these other shows. Why are we
Speaker 1: going to finally see a reboot of Home Improvement? And
Speaker 1: I go, have you been paying attention to the news
Speaker 1: as of the last I don't know, a couple years
Speaker 1: more than twenty five years after Home Improvement, Tim the
Speaker 1: Toolman Taylor is attempting to make that reunion happen, but
Speaker 1: He recently gave an update on the potential follow up,
Speaker 1: noting the actors who played his sons on the nineteen
Speaker 1: ninety one to ninety nine ABC sitcom or too preoccupied
Speaker 1: dealing with their own issues their roles.
Speaker 2: Now one of them's got a bit of a dui problem,
Speaker 2: you might say, yeah.
Speaker 1: Zachary ty Bryant, who played the oldest son, Brad, is
Speaker 1: serving sixteen months in a California prison due to several
Speaker 1: violation probations. Meanwhile, Patricia Richardson, who played Tim's wife Jill,
Speaker 1: said their on screen son, Jonathan Taylor Thomas, has not
Speaker 1: acted since he left the show. He's just Dude's not
Speaker 1: an actor anymore. He didn't. I don't think he needed
Speaker 1: to write.
Speaker 2: I think he stacked cash doing that show Home Improved.
Speaker 1: He must have invested wisely or did something, because the
Speaker 1: guy was huge when he was on Home Improvement. He
Speaker 1: was in a couple of movies. He was all over
Speaker 1: teen beat. That guy had it going. And then tarn
Speaker 1: Noah Smith, the young one who had the little emo phase.
Speaker 1: He has not appeared on screen since the nineteen ninety
Speaker 1: nine season finale either. I think he would probably be
Speaker 1: the one to be like, hey, guys, I'm ready to
Speaker 1: get let's do it. Plead for the reboot. Please give
Speaker 1: me a call.
Speaker 2: There's always somebody on the cast who is more eager
Speaker 2: to do the re Yeah, everybody else, like one person like, what'd.
Speaker 1: You say reboot? Yeah? Yeah, remove me. Uh. Tim Allen
Speaker 1: said he was hoping that they could do something that
Speaker 1: would be more focused on the kids, but the kids
Speaker 1: are a little preoccupied. Meanwhile, Patricia Richardson, Richard carn and
Speaker 1: Debbie Dunning have all reunited with Alan on season two
Speaker 1: of ABC's Shifting Gears, which is just not great. It's yeah,
Speaker 1: it's yeah. But uh, I'm excited about this because they've
Speaker 1: been talking about this for a while and and it's
Speaker 1: been what, I don't know, seventeen years that fake gass
Speaker 1: pilot was just getting started in his fakery. But we're
Speaker 1: going to get a sequel to the Social Network, and
Speaker 1: they've just dropped the trailer. Every Revolution begins with a reckoning,
Speaker 1: the companion piece to twenty ten's Oscar Winning The Social
Speaker 1: Network teases as actor Jeremy Strong offers an uncanny take
Speaker 1: on Facebook co founder Mark Zuckerberg. Movie also stars Mikey Madison,
Speaker 1: Jeremy Allen White, and Bill Burr. It tells the story
Speaker 1: of a young Facebook engineer who enlists the help of
Speaker 1: Jeff Horwitz, a Wall Street Journal reporter, to go on
Speaker 1: a dangerous journey that ends up blowing the whistle on
Speaker 1: the social network's most guarded secrets. The Social Reckoning is
Speaker 1: based on all that Cambridge Analytica stuff that Facebook went through,
Speaker 1: So the first time that they've they've actually made any
Speaker 1: moves with this because they've been talking about doing a sequel,
Speaker 1: doing more social network for a while and just has
Speaker 1: not come to fruition. And last, but not least, there
Speaker 1: is a person who not too happy with his baby
Speaker 1: mama's lawyer. Oh No DeAndre Cortes Way aka mister Soldier Boyd.
Speaker 1: He did not mince words in an email with the lawyer,
Speaker 1: according to new court documents which were obtained by TMZ,
Speaker 1: including an alleged email Soldier sent to Jackie Martinez legal team,
Speaker 1: and it is laced with profanity. The team contacted Soldier
Speaker 1: after he called to discuss the paternity suit she filed
Speaker 1: against him. Her lawyer wrote, Soldier, based on your conversation,
Speaker 1: it sounds like you want to resolve the lawsuit amicably,
Speaker 1: expeditiously and privately, and said Soldier please, just sir, mister boy,
Speaker 1: Soldier Boy, have your lawyer call me. According to the docs,
Speaker 1: the rapper replied, f stop stop emailing me, dumb bitch.
Speaker 1: There will be no litigation or settlement. I don't know
Speaker 1: who the f you think you're talking to. I was
Speaker 1: supposed to play one more time and afy where Jacklin
Speaker 1: said she tried to serve Soldier Boy at one of
Speaker 1: his concerts. What was unsuccessful? That seems like it would
Speaker 1: be hard to do as a process server. You're like, no, no, no,
Speaker 1: I need to get backstage to talk to mister Soljia boy.
Speaker 1: I have papers to serve him. Hey, it's Thursday. Let's

Speaker 2: We'll find out what's happening, because that is.
Speaker 1: Coming up next on the news, Chunky Easy.
Speaker 2: Is that our friend, that mortgage guy Don hanging out
Speaker 2: with us here on the show today?
Speaker 1: Don Earnest master Control. I know it's it's dark and
Speaker 1: mysterious Master Control.
Speaker 2: At our video feed, it always looks like Don is
Speaker 2: in witness protection program or something. It's like, yeah, like
Speaker 2: if he gets just even a little thread of sun
Speaker 2: on his face, he'll completely melt right now. But we've
Speaker 2: we got Don with this today. Don, I was talking earlier,
Speaker 2: I don't know what you think about this whole thing
Speaker 2: that we've seen with the property taxes in Florida, and
Speaker 2: they're trying to make something happen with this, And for me,
Speaker 2: I said, it looks like this could affect people who
Speaker 2: are on the lower end of the income spectrum. I'm
Speaker 2: talking about lower maybe even lower middle class people. These
Speaker 2: are people who have houses that are around two hundred
Speaker 2: thousand maybe like not even up to two fifty. Yet
Speaker 2: they're trying to get it up to two fifty or
Speaker 2: a little bit beyond. But as far as that works
Speaker 2: for just the housing market in general, do you think that.
Speaker 1: Would be bad? Good?
Speaker 2: Does it have no noticeable effect? Do we just not
Speaker 2: know because something like this hasn't been tried before.
Speaker 1: Well, what they're looking at doing is reducing the assessed
Speaker 1: value of the homes by by you know, first one
Speaker 1: hundred and fifty thousand, So it will affect everybody in
Speaker 1: their primary residence. Like if your house is assessed for
Speaker 1: four to fifty now, then you're assessed value and tax
Speaker 1: value would go down. So it's going to affect everybody
Speaker 1: across the board. I think it.
Speaker 7: I think across the board, it's going to make home
Speaker 7: buying a little more palatable because every time you make
Speaker 7: your payment, you're paying you know, your principal interest, taxes
Speaker 7: and insurance. So if the taxes are somewhere between twenty
Speaker 7: five and seventy five percent lower, that's going to make
Speaker 7: house payments lower. So I think it could help for
Speaker 7: sure with making you know, how buying a house a
Speaker 7: little more affordable. There's some other parts of it that
Speaker 7: are a little worrisome though. Well, first let's stay on this.
Speaker 7: You know, I do want to get to that.
Speaker 2: But when you stay on that front, that could be
Speaker 2: the thing that is a trigger point for somebody who
Speaker 2: would say, like, hey, I've been renting, and I know
Speaker 2: people who swear by renting, people like I think actually
Speaker 2: renting is a better financial decision. I disagree with that,
Speaker 2: but you know, whatever, to each their own. But that
Speaker 2: could be a thing that would trigger more people to
Speaker 2: go from renting to buying a house, which would like
Speaker 2: definitely inject more people into the buying market possible.
Speaker 7: I think the effect would be where you mentioned, you know,
Speaker 7: at the beginning, because people that are buying on the
Speaker 7: lower end of houses two hundred and three hundred thousand
Speaker 7: dollars houses, first time home buyers, you know, that's going
Speaker 7: to lower their payment or the cost of entry by
Speaker 7: two three four hundred dollars a month. So that's definitely
Speaker 7: going to make it more appealing to buy.
Speaker 2: That's a big deal. You know that helps. What's your
Speaker 2: problem with? What would be the things you would be
Speaker 2: concerned about.
Speaker 7: Well, they haven't really figured it out, you know, a
Speaker 7: way to make up the money that's not being collected.
Speaker 7: There was an article in the Sentinel today that the
Speaker 7: Seminal Counties, I think it was, they said they're going
Speaker 7: to have they're going to lose about two hundred and
Speaker 7: twenty million in their budget if this were to go
Speaker 7: through the way that it is, and you know that
Speaker 7: affects what they can do a lot of these small
Speaker 7: cities that our bedroom community is, like Deltna for example,
Speaker 7: or the Berry those areas that you know, the only
Speaker 7: resources they really have. They don't have any factories there
Speaker 7: or anything. Everything comes from the revenue from taxes.
Speaker 1: So they're going to see a lot more red light
Speaker 1: cameras at a lot of the Yeah, you got.
Speaker 7: To make up that money somehow. So that's the concern.
Speaker 7: Everybody wants lower taxes. I want lower taxes, but you
Speaker 7: know it could cause other services to be to decline
Speaker 7: or to be got rid of.
Speaker 2: One thing that I think we've seen, though, and I've
Speaker 2: seen a lot of evidence to back this up, is
Speaker 2: in the last ten years or you know, you get
Speaker 2: stretch it out further than this, the expenditures in a
Speaker 2: lot of these counties have just exploded. So it seems
Speaker 2: like they just want to take more and more money
Speaker 2: from the average taxpayer and then nothing really seems to
Speaker 2: change for most people. I think that's where people get frustrated,
Speaker 2: just like they just continue to take more, their budgets
Speaker 2: get bigger and bigger and bigger. I know, I saw
Speaker 2: to back up your point down. I saw that West
Speaker 2: Palm Beach and Palm Beach County were saying, well, we're
Speaker 2: gonna fall short, and then they started talking about what
Speaker 2: their police budget and their fire department budget were, and
Speaker 2: in just that county it was unbelievable. I mean, hundreds
Speaker 2: of millions of dollars. And I look at some of
Speaker 2: this and I go to me, it looks like the
Speaker 2: budgeting is out of control. Although I do think they
Speaker 2: should be careful so we make sure that there are
Speaker 2: plenty of things that can fill the gap, because especially
Speaker 2: smaller counties could suffer from this. However, I think that
Speaker 2: a lot of the reaction to this is probably all
Speaker 2: for not because it's a lot of hoops to jump
Speaker 2: through before this can happen, because I think it needs
Speaker 2: to get sixty percent of the vote. It's one of
Speaker 2: those things I believe if it's on the ballot, it
Speaker 2: has to get sixty percent to pass. Man And it's
Speaker 2: been tried before, different forms of it that didn't pass
Speaker 2: in the States, so who knows. Yeah, it's such a
Speaker 2: big hurdle with sea land. And I always talk about
Speaker 2: when this comes up, it's so hilarious that the thing
Speaker 2: that made it so you have to get sixty percent
Speaker 2: to pass something didn't get sixty percent to ass The
Speaker 2: change that made that miss necessary was something that didn't
Speaker 2: even pass by sixty percent itself.
Speaker 1: So yeah, I mean it would be interesting. I think
Speaker 1: it would be good.
Speaker 2: Like like you said, it's good for everybody because it
Speaker 2: takes away that first smaller chunk if you have a
Speaker 2: house that's worth let's say a couple of million dollars.
Speaker 2: Now for me, I think that they should pin these
Speaker 2: costs on people who are at the highest end of
Speaker 2: earning and these these folks can pay more. And these
Speaker 2: folks who are at one hundred and fifty thousand dollars,
Speaker 2: I mean, what's your average house in the state of Florida.
Speaker 2: One hundred and fifty thousand is is on the low
Speaker 2: end of housing costs, I think now, right.
Speaker 7: Average hell sides around high three hundred and three eighty
Speaker 7: something or like that. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 2: So the people will benefit the most are definitely on
Speaker 2: the lower end of this, which is what you know.
Speaker 2: Those are the kind of programs that I'm looking for
Speaker 2: that I think will be best. Those are the people
Speaker 2: who I think are are most stressed out. And obviously
Speaker 2: it sucks man when you don't have enough money to
Speaker 2: pay all your bills.
Speaker 1: This is kind of a stupid question, but that's based
Speaker 1: on what the house is appraised at, right, Like, if
Speaker 1: I get somebody to sell me a really nice house
Speaker 1: for the very stupid price of one hundred thousand dollars,
Speaker 1: that's not going to exempt me from property taxes, right, Well, when.
Speaker 7: The house would you buy a house? When house is
Speaker 7: purchased the next year, the next tax bill, it's assessed
Speaker 7: by the tax assessor, and it's usually not like if
Speaker 7: you pay five hundred for it, it's usually going to
Speaker 7: be assessed around you know, four hundred or you know
Speaker 7: a little bit less than that, So it's never the
Speaker 7: same as what you pay for it, and then it
Speaker 7: can go up over time, but they're going to assess
Speaker 7: the value of it regardless of what you paid for it, right, Yeah.
Speaker 2: Yeah, Well, here's the story I was talking about, just
Speaker 2: the idea the here's a story I was talking about.
Speaker 2: Known badger on Twitch says, does Shawn not realize that
Speaker 2: the reason Pombach County has such a high budget of
Speaker 2: police and fires because the President goes there so often. No,
Speaker 2: Historically they have had massive budgets in pom Beach County.
Speaker 2: You're I think you're trying to tell me this from
Speaker 2: a level of knowledge where I grew up in Palm
Speaker 2: Beach County. I know, I know the situation there I
Speaker 2: grew up. I used to do talk radio on the
Speaker 2: Beach County.
Speaker 1: Sewn has been arrested by those very police have, so
Speaker 1: you know what he's talking about, what to fund them?
Speaker 2: Okay, and they also you know, led to my or
Speaker 2: my arrest at one point in a strip club parking lot.
Speaker 2: But this story says, go ahead.
Speaker 7: And I was gonna say, this sounds like this could
Speaker 7: defund the police in some ways.
Speaker 2: Yeah, pom Beach County officials are bracing This is from WPTV.
Speaker 2: Pombage County officials are bracing for what could be the
Speaker 2: largest budget cuts in the county's history. Has been proposed
Speaker 2: property tax reductions threaten to eliminate nearly four hundred million
Speaker 2: from county operations over the next two years. So they
Speaker 2: start talking about this and they said, the pom Beach
Speaker 2: County Fire Department alone stands to lose just under two
Speaker 2: hundred million in funding. That's how much they stand to lose.
Speaker 2: Two hundred million in funding. I'm like, holy cow, they said.
Speaker 2: A major concern raise during the budget meeting centers on
Speaker 2: the proposed two hundred and fifty thousand dollars homestead exemption,
Speaker 2: which may not represent the final figure. The exemption could
Speaker 2: potentially increase to five hundred further deepening the budget shortfall.
Speaker 2: So a lot of these articles that are factoring in
Speaker 2: what they think the damage done is going to be
Speaker 2: are factoring in that it is going to go higher.
Speaker 2: We don't even know that it's going to be able
Speaker 2: to pass. To begin with and they're like they're going
Speaker 2: higher with it as for now. This as county leaders
Speaker 2: are examining mileage or millage rates and identifying cost saving opportunities.
Speaker 2: Were particularly attention to Pombage County Sheriff's Office. The Pombage
Speaker 2: County Sheriff's office budget, which has increased more than two
Speaker 2: hundred and sixteen percent over the past twenty years, according
Speaker 2: to county records, would be a problem. In particular, Commissioners
Speaker 2: agree they would like staff to negotiate with all constitutional officers,
Speaker 2: including the Sheriff's office, which was one of the biggest
Speaker 2: points of discussion during the meeting.
Speaker 1: So I mean that, like, that's crazy.
Speaker 2: This isn't during just you know, the time that Trump
Speaker 2: has been in office, or because of marro A Lago
Speaker 2: or anything like that. These are the Pombage County Sheriff's
Speaker 2: office is only an example, but this is happening at
Speaker 2: a lot of police station's fire station. The budget's just
Speaker 2: balloon everywhere. Nobody wants the budget to go down. Ever ever,
Speaker 2: they always want the budget to go up. Nobody ever goes.
Speaker 2: You know what, we can buckle up around here. We
Speaker 2: can reduce a couple of things we can change the
Speaker 2: way we're spending here. Nobody ever does that. They always
Speaker 2: want to just keep their hand out taking more of
Speaker 2: your money. And that's why I like things that put
Speaker 2: the money back in the pocket of the tax payer.
Speaker 2: But let us know what you thinks in a dispatch
Speaker 2: or an email. How are things looking in the housing
Speaker 2: market as of this moment.
Speaker 1: I mean, things are busy, really busy.
Speaker 4: For me.
Speaker 7: It's the busiest month we've had. It's busier than the
Speaker 7: last couple Junes that we've had, So, I mean, we're
Speaker 7: on track for a record year and things are booming.
Speaker 7: Even though the rates are a little bit up right
Speaker 7: now because of the stuff and Oran, they're still close
Speaker 7: to three year lows. You know, these are just they're
Speaker 7: up a little bit depending on what headlines and what
Speaker 7: tweets go out, But everything's staying pretty stable and business
Speaker 7: is booming.
Speaker 2: Man, it's so crazy to me when you go to
Speaker 2: buy your house, because we're messing around in Iran right now,
Speaker 2: you have to worry about things getting more expensive.
Speaker 1: That rocks my world. But when you first heard of
Speaker 1: the idea of Twitter, though, and you're like, oh, it's
Speaker 1: this weird, this new little kind of thing. It's a
Speaker 1: cute little social experiment. You can only do one hundred
Speaker 1: and forty characters, oh whatever you want. Nobody fathomed the
Speaker 1: idea that one tweet could have that much effect on things, right,
Speaker 1: you know. It's like like the story about that agent
Speaker 1: that was like at the baseball game and he was
Speaker 1: about to land some super huge deal and he's like, wait,
Speaker 1: I'm going to interrupt this game by sending a text
Speaker 1: message because they're gonna Now everybody's going to know that,
Speaker 1: I know, some superstar just signed millions of dollar contract, right,
Speaker 1: and you know they got plenty of time to talk
Speaker 1: in between plays. So that's what's going to happen next. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it's crazy, it is.
Speaker 7: It's really crazy how much impact you know, some comments
Speaker 7: can make, and stock trading in you know, the bond markets,
Speaker 7: all kinds of things can be affected by simple comments now,
Speaker 7: which is pretty bananas.
Speaker 2: Yeah, you're just trying to buy a house, trying to
Speaker 2: get into a whole ownership. Well, the one thing you
Speaker 2: can do is if you are trying to navigate all
Speaker 2: of this and all of the craziness that clearly we're
Speaker 2: talking about here, you can pick somebody who's going to
Speaker 2: make it a more affordable journey for you, and make
Speaker 2: sure you're not making all the mistakes that you'll make
Speaker 2: if you don't have the massive knowledge base that Don has,
Speaker 2: because he's.
Speaker 1: Not done this one or two times.
Speaker 2: He's done this a lot of times more time than
Speaker 2: anybody ever will do it on their own, So make
Speaker 2: sure you're using him. He's the expert that mortgage guy
Speaker 2: Don dot com. If you're just kind of flirting around
Speaker 2: with it, one great way to start expanding your knowledge
Speaker 2: base is to flirt with doms. But if you don't
Speaker 2: want to try that, then you could listen to the
Speaker 2: radio show. And I think all the past episodes are
Speaker 2: even available on the website.
Speaker 7: Yeah, right, everywhere you get a Spotify spreaker or on
Speaker 7: the website, you can listen to you over if you
Speaker 7: want to, over three hundred past episodes.
Speaker 2: M you can make you a genius on this right thing.
Speaker 2: To take it all in all right, thank you so much.
Speaker 2: He's the best that mortgage.
Speaker 1: Yeah, thanks Sean, Thanks Chilane.
Speaker 2: Make sure when you're in need of the expertise that
Speaker 2: he definitely has and puts on display here, you reach out.
Speaker 1: It's really easy to do. Go to that mortgage guy
Speaker 1: down dot com.
Speaker 2: If you're in a position where you already have some
Speaker 2: number that they've sent over to you, just check to
Speaker 2: see it's the right number.
Speaker 1: Just check.
Speaker 2: Don't waste money, just check. Send it over to that
Speaker 2: mortgage guy down dot com. Don we'll see you next week,
Speaker 2: but see you next week. There he goes, all right,
Speaker 2: we're gonna take a quick break when we come back.
Speaker 2: Jury duty is on the way. We got some stories
Speaker 2: that we've been following over the months. I still have
Speaker 2: this clip to get into. I'll play that when we
Speaker 2: come back. That'll be the first one. Six point six
Speaker 2: million views. This thing is blowing up.
Speaker 1: What is it?
Speaker 2: You're gonna hear it? That's coming up next on the
Speaker 2: news chunk key no skull mic on a Thursday.
Speaker 1: There's been a couple doll mics that thank God, thank
Speaker 1: God for do Mike.
Speaker 2: By the way, there's somebody who sent in a dispatch
Speaker 2: one of the first ones after I added the whole
Speaker 2: anonymous feature, and their username was school do mic is
Speaker 2: better than skull Mic, And I was like, oh man,
Speaker 2: look at that. Do Mike greater than skull Mike was
Speaker 2: was their particular dispatch user username please.
Speaker 1: And uh.
Speaker 2: I also wanted to tell you there are people who
Speaker 2: are just testing out the anonymous dispatch feature Sea Lamb,
Speaker 2: and they wanted to see if it works, and they
Speaker 2: want to see if it hides their identity properly. Okay,
Speaker 2: I'll give you an example of that. Because now, when
Speaker 2: you're sending a dispatch on the website or the android
Speaker 2: app right now, but it's it's going to be released
Speaker 2: on the iOS app in the next couple of days
Speaker 2: here too, you could just hit the little button that
Speaker 2: says anonymous you don't really want it your voice or
Speaker 2: whatever on the show, and I get that, well, they're
Speaker 2: less likely to get played by the way in the future.
Speaker 2: I want people who are going to put their name
Speaker 2: behind it and stuff usually, but I do want this
Speaker 2: as an option for people. And this person said, I
Speaker 2: want to see if this works here go.
Speaker 4: I guess. I hope you guys will do well. I
Speaker 4: wonder if you guys will be able to figure out
Speaker 4: who this is anonymous sleep. I just wanted to things by.
Speaker 2: Uh, yeah, I'm not gonna say who it is.
Speaker 1: No, No, that would would be uncouth. I'm not going
Speaker 1: to say who it is.
Speaker 2: That's not on me, but I could tell maybe other
Speaker 2: people couldn't. I don't want to let the cat out
Speaker 2: of the bag with that one. But thank you for
Speaker 2: your dispatch. Right now, let's get into it. Let's do
Speaker 2: jury duty.
Speaker 5: Court is now in session, so put your phone down
Speaker 5: and pay attention before we call the bailiff over to
Speaker 5: win your ass.
Speaker 1: You're knowing jury duty with the noose Junkie.
Speaker 2: Jury duty brought to you by the one the only
Speaker 2: modu WD of the DeWit Law Firm. Injured on the go,
Speaker 2: just CALLMO eight eight hundred, eight hundred Calmo or go
Speaker 2: to just call eight hundred Calmo, or go to just
Speaker 2: Calmo dot com.
Speaker 1: All right, here we go. There's a few stories we
Speaker 1: need to hit on here.
Speaker 2: Speaking of hitting on, a Delta Airlines passenger has been
Speaker 2: arrested and charged with a federal offense after a flight
Speaker 2: attendant alleged he slapped her on the ass during in
Speaker 2: flight service. And this occurred back in May. Cody Maluk
Speaker 2: Cody what are you doing? Thirty two years old, was
Speaker 2: indicted by a federal grand jury in Atlanta on June
Speaker 2: ninth for interference with crew member or a crew members
Speaker 2: or attendants consider a federal crime that carries I want
Speaker 2: you to think about this. You creepers, you weirdos, you drunkards,
Speaker 2: You people who are out there flying around on planes
Speaker 2: thinking I've had a couple too many.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna grab this flight attendants. I'm gonna slap their ass.
Speaker 2: This guy is facing twenty years in federal prisons, allright.
Speaker 2: He is facing because it's a federal offense, what he
Speaker 2: did and what he's charged with, and I think they
Speaker 2: might want to make an example out of somebody doing this.
Speaker 2: All you have to do is not be a weirdo
Speaker 2: to not face this punishment. But he is facing up
Speaker 2: to twenty years in prison if convicted on this, So
Speaker 2: Cody Maluck would probably like to take this back, I
Speaker 2: would think. According to the complaint, the flight attendant believed
Speaker 2: that he was asleep and initially passed by his seat
Speaker 2: and began assisting a nearby passenger when she felt a
Speaker 2: slap on her buttocks area with sufficient force to cause
Speaker 2: her body to move forward. She then turned around immediately
Speaker 2: and saw Maluck raising his hands and stating words to
Speaker 2: the effect of I didn't do anything, and he was
Speaker 2: trying to pretend like it wasn't him, but she knew
Speaker 2: what was going on. According to the complaint, Mluck said
Speaker 2: he didn't hear anyone asking if he wanted a beverage
Speaker 2: because he was wearing headphones. He said he didn't mean
Speaker 2: harm or disrespect. He was just trying to get her attention.
Speaker 2: He said he did touch her buttocks area, but he
Speaker 2: didn't slap her hard enough to move her forward.
Speaker 1: So many ways of getting attention that aren't that.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, if you, but how about this, if
Speaker 2: you're the person who's going Sure, I slapped the flight
Speaker 2: attendant's ass, but I didn't slap it hard enough that
Speaker 2: she would be moving forward. What exactly do you think
Speaker 2: that argument's going to do? Do you think that's gonna
Speaker 2: win normies over because it's not. They're gonna be like, Okay,
Speaker 2: I think that this is an issue and you're probably
Speaker 2: not going to come out on the winning side of it.
Speaker 1: But there we go.
Speaker 2: Also in courtrooms right now, Costco is firing back at
Speaker 2: these lawsuit claims that they have been fake advertising their
Speaker 2: chicken prices. Costco's firing back at a class action lawsuit
Speaker 2: that accused its popular five dollars rotissary chicken of being
Speaker 2: falsely advertised. Two Costco customers said the Kirkland signature season
Speaker 2: rotisserie chicken mmmm good contains preservatives despite being marketed as
Speaker 2: preservative free. Costco said that is nonsense. They said the
Speaker 2: according to the lawsuit, they said it contained karagian karagenin
Speaker 2: and a little bit of carried genin in there. Costco
Speaker 2: says that the lawsuit is fatally fawed. These are not
Speaker 2: preservatives that they're talking about, and get out of here
Speaker 2: your I hope that if they lose the lawsuit they
Speaker 2: get rid of the memberships. I think if you see
Speaker 2: Costco and you lose, I think they should.
Speaker 1: Take your Costco membership. I think they should take it
Speaker 1: away from you because you don't deserve the glory of
Speaker 1: Costco in those four ninety nine those things are freakishly large,
Speaker 1: by the way, because of all the.
Speaker 2: Naga Naga, Yeah, all of that hopped up in there.
Speaker 2: And finally, injury duty today, mailbox money from our friends
Speaker 2: at Google. I want you to search for something in
Speaker 2: your email. I know it's a handful of words, words,
Speaker 2: but don't worry. It could pay off. This is a
Speaker 2: sixty eight million dollars settlement of mailbox money and you
Speaker 2: were supposed to get an email, So Google Email search
Speaker 2: the following Google Assistant Privacy Litigation settlement one more time,
Speaker 2: Google Assistant Privacy Litigation settlement. If you search for your
Speaker 2: Google Emails or your Gmail as it were, for that
Speaker 2: Google Assistant Privacy litigation settlement, you will see the email
Speaker 2: that you most likely miss and that is about having
Speaker 2: one of these Google Assistant devices and they were listening
Speaker 2: in to you over a ten year period on multiple
Speaker 2: device that you If you had a Google device that
Speaker 2: had a Google Assistant from May eighteenth, twenty sixteen to
Speaker 2: March nineteenth, twenty twenty six that's a decade.
Speaker 1: If you had one of these.
Speaker 2: You're entitled to a piece of that sixty eight million
Speaker 2: dollar settlement.
Speaker 1: Have you ever had a Vice assistant? I have. I've
Speaker 1: had one.
Speaker 2: I think, think I gotta I gotta dig it up.
Speaker 2: But if you've had more than one device, you get
Speaker 2: a bigger share of the money. Depending on how many
Speaker 2: devices you have you have, I've never had a Google Assistant.
Speaker 1: I just lie. That's what well, I've already said it
Speaker 1: on the air now, so that's probably a little hard
Speaker 1: for me. As soon as the words came out of
Speaker 1: my mouth. I went, Nah, should a lot about that
Speaker 1: when we come back. We got a bunch of feedback
Speaker 1: to get to.
Speaker 2: We have a new website that is causing chaos because
Speaker 2: of what allows people to do. I'll tell you what
Speaker 2: it is and how it's impacting people, and we'll do
Speaker 2: the Power Hour because that's coming up next on the
Speaker 2: news junk key. A lot of stuff freaking me out today.
Speaker 2: I got to get to some of these clips though.
Speaker 2: First things first, I guess this was something coming up.
Speaker 2: What's coming up? We were talking about a different things
Speaker 2: like the property taxes stuff and et cetera, et cetera.
Speaker 2: We've been talking about how expensive things are. I got
Speaker 2: some emails on that. But here is the President talking
Speaker 2: about this. I guess at the White House yesterday.
Speaker 1: The right people come into our everybody want you can
Speaker 1: serve us?
Speaker 3: The president about the latest inflation number which came out
Speaker 3: this morning.
Speaker 1: Could that be a no?
Speaker 5: I love it the numbers, you know what, I really
Speaker 5: loved I love it.
Speaker 13: You know what because as soon as this war is over,
Speaker 13: you know, I can say it now something you didn't know?
Speaker 4: Do you know?
Speaker 13: We've been taking out millions of barrels of oil. Nobody
Speaker 13: knows it.
Speaker 9: You know who does what I do now until right now?
Speaker 2: So I did he say he loved I don't know
Speaker 2: if he said he loved inflation or if love inflation.
Speaker 1: He said he loved the numbers. But it sounded like
Speaker 1: I love inflation. Let me go back when the latest.
Speaker 3: Inflation number which came out this morning.
Speaker 1: Could that be a no, I love it numbers.
Speaker 5: You know what I really love.
Speaker 1: I love the inflation.
Speaker 13: You know what, because as soon as this war is over,
Speaker 13: you know, I can say it.
Speaker 2: It sounded like I said I love inflation. Maybe he
Speaker 2: was trying to say I love the inflation numbers, but
Speaker 2: I love inflation. I don't love inflation. No, I'm I'm
Speaker 2: not a big fan necessarily. And then I also something
Speaker 2: about we've been taking some oil or doing something and
Speaker 2: telling the press for the first time with the cameras.
Speaker 1: Rolling, so nobody knows.
Speaker 2: I don't see if any of that means anything. I
Speaker 2: also wanted to share this with you. Hang on, let
Speaker 2: me see if I can find the particular clip, because
Speaker 2: this was nightmare material.
Speaker 1: All right.
Speaker 2: This is in Russia, and I'll put this up on
Speaker 2: see it now in case you want to just freak
Speaker 2: somebody out. A biblical swarm of mosquitoes. Those are mosquitos.
Speaker 1: Yeah, over.
Speaker 2: Has taken over this town in Russia, and I'm talking
Speaker 2: about I think there are billions of.
Speaker 1: The whole town has malaria.
Speaker 2: The whole old town has been infected with all of
Speaker 2: these mosquitoes. And the swarm is so big it looks
Speaker 2: like something out of the Bible. And they don't know
Speaker 2: what to do. They don't know how to get rid
Speaker 2: of them. They're like clouds of mosquitoes. Again, I'm gonna
Speaker 2: put this up.
Speaker 1: Let me get a screenshot of this so after I
Speaker 1: play it, I could put it up in the Sea
Speaker 1: It Now section of the website and the app, and
Speaker 1: you can peek at this. But here it is.
Speaker 2: Look how crazy You can't even see anything.
Speaker 1: I'll mute this, but you can't even see anything.
Speaker 2: There's so many mosquitoes that are flying around this area.
Speaker 2: It's so dense with mosquitoes that you you would probably
Speaker 2: just drop dead just by a million pin pricks if
Speaker 2: you wandered through this area. Does anybody there have any
Speaker 2: blood left? It doesn't look like it. If I lived here,
Speaker 2: I'd say, well, we're moving. Yeah, this is it. Yeah,
Speaker 2: this is it. We're going to go somewhere else. The
Speaker 2: inflation numbers don't matter anymore. We're going to wherever they
Speaker 2: don't have this many mosquitoes at this particular time. But
Speaker 2: that is in Russia where bury Yadia, b U Ryatia
Speaker 2: at this place in Russia has been swarmed with so
Speaker 2: many mosquitoes that they're trying to figure out how to
Speaker 2: deal with it. They're just in clouds that have been
Speaker 2: hitting all of them. A massive cloud of mosquitoes in
Speaker 2: Russia is what we're looking at, and you could check
Speaker 2: it out for yourself over on.
Speaker 1: See it now.
Speaker 2: It's over on cn now in the news Junkie app.
Speaker 2: Take a peek of that. It says a massive cloud
Speaker 2: of mosquitos in Russia. You'll be able to see it
Speaker 2: when you click the link over there on the website.
Speaker 2: I want nothing to do with that, and I think
Speaker 2: you probably feel the same way. But give it a shot.
Speaker 2: We'll get to more of your dispatches here. In a moment,
Speaker 2: I talked about this new viral website that a lot
Speaker 2: of people were discussing. I mentioned this not that long ago.
Speaker 2: We actually mentioned this, I think on secret shows at
Speaker 2: some point in time. But there is this new website
Speaker 2: and it's a it's on a sort of controversial domain.
Speaker 2: I think pump dot fun or something is the actual
Speaker 2: name of it.
Speaker 1: And dot fun is controversial house fun, controversial fun.
Speaker 2: Well not not not necessarily like the what is it
Speaker 2: called the TLD which is the dot com, dot net,
Speaker 2: dot gov, dot org, whatever nerd. Not necessarily that part.
Speaker 2: But the pump dot funwebsite is a weird uh crypto
Speaker 2: pumping website.
Speaker 1: It's the one that like just lets you make your
Speaker 1: own crypto coin or something like.
Speaker 2: You can generate a cryptocin, you can stream to the
Speaker 2: audience and do some wild crazy stuff. You can post
Speaker 2: things to drawing attention, and when you draw an attention
Speaker 2: to your completely worthless cryptocurrency, people can bet to see
Speaker 2: if that goes up, and then you try to make
Speaker 2: money before the bottom falls out and everybody gets screwed.
Speaker 1: I guess that's fine. Pump dot fun just walks away
Speaker 1: with all the millions, says sealers. Has been a good time.
Speaker 2: So they added a section of their website. And I
Speaker 2: don't even know if I should be visiting this, but
Speaker 2: I will. Pump dot fun. They added a section of
Speaker 2: the website called callouts, and they are offering people money
Speaker 2: to do all sorts of stuff. I'll give you some
Speaker 2: examples of some of the bounties that are out there
Speaker 2: right now.
Speaker 1: Here's one. This is quite a bit.
Speaker 2: If you use the betting website, I don't care whatever,
Speaker 2: dot Com and you place a bet at the peak
Speaker 2: of Mount Everest, they are willing to pay you fifty
Speaker 2: three five and forty seven dollars.
Speaker 1: It's a little out of reach for me.
Speaker 2: I won't be placing a bet at the peak of
Speaker 2: Mount Everest. That one's not going to do it for me.
Speaker 2: This is somebody at the World Cup. A twenty three
Speaker 2: thousand dollars bounty for somebody who will go to every
Speaker 2: World Cup match from the opening game through the quarterfinals
Speaker 2: and produce and submit qualifying videos from every match played.
Speaker 2: So that's like somebody trying to get content out of it.
Speaker 2: I guess, like video content.
Speaker 1: Do you know how much it costs to climb Mount Everst?
Speaker 1: Is it more than fifty thousand dollars? I mean once
Speaker 1: you tack on all of the I mean probably the
Speaker 1: trip there and all the gear you're gonna need. But
Speaker 1: before taking a single step on the mountain, you must
Speaker 1: pay government and administrative fees. The Nepal South Side permit
Speaker 1: is fifteen thousand dollars per climber. Oh my god, well
Speaker 1: it makes sense.
Speaker 2: It's a pretty particular thing, and they have to all
Speaker 2: the people get stuck up there cost them a lot
Speaker 2: of money.
Speaker 1: The Tibet North Side permit, depending on team size and operator,
Speaker 1: can cost nineteen to fifty five thousand dollars. Wow. Other
Speaker 1: fees include liaison officers, icefall doctors, and mandatory garbage and
Speaker 1: waste deposits approximately four thousand, partially refundable. Then there's guides
Speaker 1: and logistics. That's a lot of money. International Western operators,
Speaker 1: private guide sherpas, unlimited oxygen, high altitude helicopter support. Stupid
Speaker 1: expensive to climb Mount Everest. And I'm gonna say it
Speaker 1: right here and right now. I don't care how controversial
Speaker 1: this is. I'm not doing it, all right, I am
Speaker 1: not doing it. I'm turning down the offer. Writ down
Speaker 1: six eleven. Here's an easier one for some of you.
Speaker 1: Host a best butt contest in real life. That's it.
Speaker 1: That's it.
Speaker 2: Minimum twenty willing adult participants, and you will get eight
Speaker 2: and forty seven dollars. I feel like that's doable. All
Speaker 2: you need to do is find twenty people willing to
Speaker 2: be in a best butt contest.
Speaker 1: Everybody gets that's that's not bad. Yeah, and reality.
Speaker 2: If you have the best butt content with one thousand
Speaker 2: dollars prize and you get twenty other dopes to join in,
Speaker 2: then you've made yourself some pretty big change there.
Speaker 1: They have to be good butts or like, can you
Speaker 1: and I just find eighteen other you know people contest,
Speaker 1: organize and host the best but Beauty contest with a
Speaker 1: minimum of twenty willing adult participants, think fun, high energy
Speaker 1: event vibes. Contestants are judged by live audience appause or
Speaker 1: a panel vote. Film the full event from intro to
Speaker 1: winter announcement. All participants must be consenting adults and comfortable
Speaker 1: on camera. The more entertaining and well produced video, the better.
Speaker 1: That's it.
Speaker 2: That's the best butt contests.
Speaker 1: Tests. That's not bad.
Speaker 2: That is I might get into this. I'll participate too,
Speaker 2: So I only need nineteen more people. Let me know
Speaker 2: if you're going to take place or take you if
Speaker 2: you'll participate this with them? No, no, no, not you
Speaker 2: because you've you mocked me, so you are out of
Speaker 2: the competition.
Speaker 1: I would have given you two hundred dollars too. I
Speaker 1: would have done that.
Speaker 2: The splits four hundred, well, you know, I would have
Speaker 2: given you two hundred dollars. I would have done that
Speaker 2: for you. I would have given you two hundred dollars.
Speaker 2: And then everybody else who's participating all the fine butts
Speaker 2: in chat right now? Oh my god, are you kidding me?
Speaker 1: All the production I'm gonna have to do for the
Speaker 1: best butt contest and it's only two hundred bucks? All right?
Speaker 2: Two fifty? Well, I'll do two fifty. Two hundred and
Speaker 2: fifty dollars. Bingo bango. We got ourselves a deal. This
Speaker 2: is kind of a recipe for disaster in a way
Speaker 2: to set up a website where you pay people for
Speaker 2: prank monkey stuff. But they're doing it regardless, So make
Speaker 2: some money if you have the opportunity.
Speaker 1: Who's the address on pump dot fund? Is that the
Speaker 1: tips at the news junkie dot com?
Speaker 2: No? No, what do you mean? Who's address on pump doves?
Speaker 2: You used to be the prank monkey guy? You think
Speaker 2: I'm paying somebody seven thousand dollars for a best booty competition.
Speaker 1: Hell no, noah, no, Look, your price keeps going down.
Speaker 1: It might be you. I can't do that.
Speaker 2: There's a lot of these up there, though, that are
Speaker 2: very very I would say lucrative really if you're able
Speaker 2: to pull it off. But you know, godspeed Pump dot
Speaker 2: Fun beware over there. It's a very very weird website.
Speaker 2: A couple of emails coming in tips at the news
Speaker 2: Junkie dot com. Mike says, you were talking about pizza
Speaker 2: prices on the show recently. He says, can you get
Speaker 2: a pizza for ten bucks?
Speaker 1: Yes?
Speaker 2: The question is do you want to eat a ten
Speaker 2: dollars pizza? Doubtful. I can't think of a single place
Speaker 2: that has a pie at that price point that doesn't suck.
Speaker 2: Maybe a frozen pizza at the grocery store. You could
Speaker 2: definitely get some of the cheaper frozen ones. The good
Speaker 2: frozen ones are a little more expensive. I'm down with
Speaker 2: loving pizza though. Pizza, yeah, yeah, one hundred percent. But
Speaker 2: what I want to I'll show you what I was
Speaker 2: saying yesterday is if you go even I'm not talking
Speaker 2: about some weird place here, choose any two mix and
Speaker 2: match for six ninety.
Speaker 1: Nine a piece. I don't know if these are me
Speaker 1: or not.
Speaker 2: Carry Out seven ninety nine, a large, one topping pizza
Speaker 2: and eight wings or boneless chicken seven ninety nine.
Speaker 5: That's it.
Speaker 2: That's crazy stuff. Cruss ten ninety nine. So you can
Speaker 2: get stuff for cheaper than ten bucks. You just have
Speaker 2: to be smart and sort of bargain shop. And when
Speaker 2: it comes to the pizza, if you're going to do
Speaker 2: that for dinner for your family, what I was saying
Speaker 2: was you got to do the carryout to keep it
Speaker 2: as some sort of a deal, because the moment you
Speaker 2: start adding delivered to the equation, well, you're piling money
Speaker 2: on money on money. Then all of a sudden, it's
Speaker 2: thirty bucks, thirty five bucks, forty bucks, God only knows
Speaker 2: from there. This is Anthony emailing tips of the news
Speaker 2: Junkie dot com. He's talking about that guy yesterday, Selane,
Speaker 2: who had the general store that was overrun by sex offenders.
Speaker 2: And this guy had a big property and all these
Speaker 2: sex offenders started to use it as their address and
Speaker 2: they set up shop in the woods and they're they're
Speaker 2: not able to leave because if they leave their ankle
Speaker 2: monitors will go off they do their meetings with their
Speaker 2: probation or probation hearings and stuff like that at this
Speaker 2: particular place. And this guy's like, I just want to
Speaker 2: get the sex offenders out of here. This is my
Speaker 2: property right now. Anthony says, this guy has a five
Speaker 2: acre lot. Could he not donate let's say, a quarter
Speaker 2: acre to the city or county to build a playground.
Speaker 2: I'm pretty sure sex offenders cannot work. I was like,
Speaker 2: why is he donating to the sex offenders? No, that's
Speaker 2: not a terrible idea. He said that might be a
Speaker 2: worthy investment. I don't know if that would work, like
Speaker 2: Anthony says, but he said, if you build a playground,
Speaker 2: they can't come.
Speaker 1: Can you build your own playground on okay? Can you
Speaker 1: build your own playground on your own property that you
Speaker 1: don't donate it? But you're like, all right, this is
Speaker 1: a playground. I don't know the logistics of this, but
Speaker 1: that's his idea. He's saying that the guy with the
Speaker 1: general store and the sex offender problem could possibly build
Speaker 1: a playground and then work them out of this equation
Speaker 1: like you're not allowed to be here. He could really
Speaker 1: do that for anybody, I guess all right, quick break.
Speaker 2: When we come back, we'll get to your thoughts, what's
Speaker 2: going on in your world and your emails and dispatch
Speaker 2: and all of that.
Speaker 1: Are you listening to me? Can I go to I
Speaker 1: can't go to break. I've been telling you like three
Speaker 1: times in your ear that we haven't started the power Hour.
Speaker 2: Oh oh, I didn't hear that. I didn't hear any
Speaker 2: of that. OK, yeah, yeah, do you want to do that?
Speaker 1: We have to ruined. It was just about to do.
Speaker 1: I was literally just about to do. They said done.
Speaker 2: Then they said, what's the worst thing that could happen?
Speaker 1: Well, I get infested with sex offenders around here or something.
Speaker 4: On the news.
Speaker 1: Chuk That's why I waited. That's why I waited.
Speaker 2: I knew that was coming, and I said, well, I
Speaker 2: can't just let him play this out of context. It
Speaker 2: won't say anything that makes sense. So I'll set it
Speaker 2: up like a good broadcaster. Presto bango. We're good to go.
Speaker 2: By the way, did you put the you had a
Speaker 2: note for me? You know I'm sweating in here. You
Speaker 2: know I got problems in this studio today. Did you
Speaker 2: put the note for me on the screen?
Speaker 8: On?
Speaker 4: No?
Speaker 2: I said it in your ear. That's the thing I
Speaker 2: used the screen. Oh now I heard you, Yeah you did,
Speaker 2: of course. Oh do we need to do the power hours?
Speaker 2: How we already did the power out? Okay, we'll take
Speaker 2: a quick break. We'll come back with the more power
Speaker 2: hour and we'll also find out what happened to somebody
Speaker 2: who was just sentenced to four years. But four years
Speaker 2: does not seem enough for what was done here, what happened?
Speaker 1: Wait till you hear this. It's coming up next on
Speaker 1: the news Junkie. We want to hear from you.
Speaker 2: We got your dispatches and emails all cueued up before
Speaker 2: the end of the show. Well, absolutely work those in.
Speaker 2: I promise you as much. We will also see what's
Speaker 2: going on with various other clips that need to be
Speaker 2: worked in before the end of the show. Today, I'm sweating.
Speaker 2: I'm starting to sweat here. Oh no, yeah, Still Austin
Speaker 2: is still working away. Oh stood, still working away in
Speaker 2: the studio.
Speaker 1: Still has not fixed the problem that has had us
Speaker 1: limping along today. I mean ever, seems like he hasn't
Speaker 1: fixed the AC either.
Speaker 2: No, no, no, no no no. He comes back in
Speaker 2: and he's like, I think it's this, and I go
Speaker 2: how do I fix that? You know that it doesn't matter.
Speaker 2: I got to get mills there, got to get that
Speaker 2: going on, just piling on today. Man, I am telling you,
Speaker 2: I don't say this lightly. When I get into a
Speaker 2: route of bad luck, it just piles on me. I
Speaker 2: told you about Courtney's car, right and her car all
Speaker 2: of a sudden went into this weird limp mode.
Speaker 1: And her car is not even.
Speaker 2: Mercedes. Right on the features, Eric Carr goes into limp motors.
Speaker 2: The car is only like a couple years old. It's
Speaker 2: almost a brand new car. And her car goes.
Speaker 1: Just outside of warranty.
Speaker 2: It's a limp mode. Well that's the thing. So I go,
Speaker 2: what what's going on with this? And they said, don't worry,
Speaker 2: it's covered by a warranty. It's a problem that these
Speaker 2: cars can have. And the mechanic I brought it to said,
Speaker 2: I'll get it towed over to the Mercedes dealership. It's
Speaker 2: like a ten to twelve thousand dollars fix, but they
Speaker 2: pick it up because it's you know, there's a warranty
Speaker 2: on this. And I said, okay, good, great, fantastic. And
Speaker 2: then they I called them and I go, hey, you've
Speaker 2: had my car for a while and they go, yeah,
Speaker 2: it's done.
Speaker 1: It's done. It's ready to go. Come pick it up.
Speaker 2: And I said, all right, how much is it and
Speaker 2: they said two hundred and fifty dollars And I said, okay,
Speaker 2: what's that for? And they said, we did a computer update.
Speaker 2: We had to do a software update for your car.
Speaker 2: You can only do those here. So we did that
Speaker 2: for you, and we updated the software. Sorry, what we
Speaker 2: can only do them here. And they cost two hundred
Speaker 2: and fifty dollars.
Speaker 1: Fifty dollars for a software update, Kiss my ass.
Speaker 2: And I said, did you do all the thing that
Speaker 2: you brought the car there to fix? And they said, oh,
Speaker 2: we didn't have to. Now that was a name mechanic
Speaker 2: doesn't know what he's talking about. This is the real problem.
Speaker 2: And we got it fixed. Don't worry, Come pick up
Speaker 2: your car. So we drove all the way to pick
Speaker 2: up the car this weekend. Courty was all excited. We're
Speaker 2: driving the car around. We're like, we're back in action, baby,
Speaker 2: things are happening for us here. And they didn't do
Speaker 2: the actual work. So a day and a half later,
Speaker 2: all of a sudden, check engine light goes on again,
Speaker 2: I scanned the check engine light thing, and I'm getting
Speaker 2: the same exact codes for cylinder three that I was
Speaker 2: getting beforehand, causing me to have to bring the car
Speaker 2: all the way back to the Mercedes dealership. Now, it's
Speaker 2: my theory, and I don't know if this is true
Speaker 2: or not. You mechanics can tell me whether or not
Speaker 2: I'm right about this or if this is a crazy
Speaker 2: conspiracy theory. My theory is that they didn't want to
Speaker 2: do the work that was covered and they wanted to
Speaker 2: send me home with a quick update that was two
Speaker 2: hundred and fifty bucks so that they didn't get hooked
Speaker 2: in for the labor or whatever that they thought they
Speaker 2: were going to get screwed on. And they said, maybe
Speaker 2: he'll go to a Mercedes dealership that's closer to them.
Speaker 2: We'll give it back to him, and then they'll go, oh,
Speaker 2: it's still broken, I'll go to one that's closer to
Speaker 2: me this time. Well, kiss my ass, I'm coming right
Speaker 2: back to you. I'm going to the same dealership that
Speaker 2: I was supposed to do this to begin with. I'm
Speaker 2: bringing the car right back there until we get this fixed.
Speaker 2: But I felt like they were like, uh, let's dodge
Speaker 2: a bullet here. We don't want to have to do
Speaker 2: the work. And the dealership was like, we still want
Speaker 2: to charge him.
Speaker 1: We can't.
Speaker 2: We're not sending out of here with no money. You know,
Speaker 2: we're taking some money from him, but we'll do it
Speaker 2: for this And now the car's back. Check engine line
Speaker 2: is back on this car. Two hundred and fifty bucks
Speaker 2: for a software update is wild, crazy, crazy, And they say, yeah,
Speaker 2: it's been waiting. He's just been waiting the whole time.
Speaker 2: And I don't know enough about any of this. My
Speaker 2: mechanic guy said he had it handled for me, and
Speaker 2: he did, but then they just did something different. They
Speaker 2: even told my mechanic they fixed the cylinder. They told
Speaker 2: him that they did the work. So now I have
Speaker 2: to have my mechanic tell me what to say, and
Speaker 2: then go there and tell them do the work. For
Speaker 2: God's sake, do what you're supposed to do. I don't
Speaker 2: have to go back and forth. I got enough things
Speaker 2: going on in my life. Kurt says, correct. They're often
Speaker 2: lazy about doing real, actual thorough diagnosignostics of the dealership
Speaker 2: because the low level guys can't do that. Just one
Speaker 2: or two Master Texts. Yeah, I mean I think that
Speaker 2: it would have had to sit there for a while
Speaker 2: and then the Mercedes picks up the tab. But the
Speaker 2: dealership probably doesn't make money like they do off all
Speaker 2: of the other cars, so they wanted to push it away.
Speaker 1: That's what my feeling was.
Speaker 2: Again, I might be wrong with that's just the vibe
Speaker 2: IY gone on what was going on at this dealership.
Speaker 2: And so I've got to get that fixed and bring
Speaker 2: that back and do all of that stuff. And that
Speaker 2: is adding to a massive, massive pile of things that
Speaker 2: are just going wrong in the world of Sean. All
Speaker 2: Things Sean, All Things the News Junkie, and now AC
Speaker 2: is not working in the studio. That's problem. The one
Speaker 2: of the big things in the control tower is not work.
Speaker 2: We're able to do the show.
Speaker 1: You guys probably aren't even noticing that much, but for.
Speaker 2: Us, we're not able to do it the way that
Speaker 2: we want to do it, and it requires a little
Speaker 2: bit more work. The whole thing is just frustrating. I
Speaker 2: just get in these routes. I don't know if that
Speaker 2: happens anybody else. We're all of a sudden, you're just
Speaker 2: like in a bad luck route and you have all
Speaker 2: these annoying problems that.
Speaker 1: Are piling up. I'm hoping I get out of it soon.
Speaker 2: Let's see a big thanks by the way, big giant
Speaker 2: thanks to cat B for another five gifted subscriptions.
Speaker 1: Yes, thank you for that.
Speaker 2: Those are subscriptions you can claim at the newsjunky dot
Speaker 2: com right now. Thanks to all the people who have
Speaker 2: gifted subscriptions unlocking secret shows for you, so create an account.
Speaker 2: Grab those subscriptions courtesy at cat be. We appreciate that.
Speaker 2: Claim them while you can right now. Here are a
Speaker 2: few people emailing tips to the neews junky dot com.
Speaker 2: This is from m who says the Palm Beach Sheriff's
Speaker 2: office they're out of control. Budget has caused a great
Speaker 2: deal by Sheriff Rick Bradshaw. He's been in that office
Speaker 2: way too long and his outrageous budget requests or legendary
Speaker 2: Not too long ago, they moved into a glass office
Speaker 2: center and a very expensive building with luxury offices in
Speaker 2: a full gym that a lot of commercial facilities would envy.
Speaker 2: Some smaller communities have pulled away from paying them and
Speaker 2: are setting up their own police forces due to expensive
Speaker 2: bills from the sheriff's office. Definitely too much money allowed
Speaker 2: for them. For Palm Beach County, says this person, Well,
Speaker 2: don't worry. You never can think about this. You're never
Speaker 2: allowed to complain about this.
Speaker 1: You're not. You just have to be a good citizen
Speaker 1: and just keep paying and paying and paying. And pang
Speaker 1: and pang and pang and pang and pang, and the
Speaker 1: people who don't complain about it, whether they tend to
Speaker 1: be on the winning end of this, Tom says, the
Speaker 1: issue with property.
Speaker 2: Taxes is that they never go away. Eighty year old
Speaker 2: pensioners on a fixed income still have to pay. I
Speaker 2: would support a graduate to decrease to zero based on age.
Speaker 2: Maybe it starts around sixty and goes down every year
Speaker 2: until it reaches zero. I'd be fine with that too.
Speaker 2: These people don't have kids draining the system. But it's
Speaker 2: absolutely wrong that a person is eternally renting their home
Speaker 2: from their local governm eternally renting your home from a
Speaker 2: local government and without a choice. To me, one of
Speaker 2: the most American things that could be out there in
Speaker 2: the marketplace is choice. But we still have things where
Speaker 2: we can't choose, Like you can't choose where you're getting
Speaker 2: your power from most places. Most places you just have
Speaker 2: to get the power or don't get the power.
Speaker 1: We're not all the way.
Speaker 2: Some of you got solar setups and stuff, but were
Speaker 2: for me. I'm not all the way where I could
Speaker 2: power my house like that and not notice the difference.
Speaker 2: So for now, we have to make these choices like this,
Speaker 2: and with your police and you're with your fire department,
Speaker 2: with your budget, whether these things you really you don't
Speaker 2: have any control over. It just kind of sucks. And
Speaker 2: then the idea that they're like, well if you do this,
Speaker 2: we're gonna lose a lot of our budget.
Speaker 1: Okay, well then let's talk.
Speaker 2: It's time now for a lot of these counties, a
Speaker 2: lot of these places to say we need to rethink things.
Speaker 2: Maybe we've gone a bit too far with the budget.
Speaker 2: We can't just balloon the budget endlessly upwards. Sometimes we're
Speaker 2: going to have to reduce the budget. Sometimes we're gonna
Speaker 2: have to reduce taxes. Otherwise, you have a new generation
Speaker 2: that pops on and they're frustrated as they are.
Speaker 1: They are frustrated right now.
Speaker 2: You know why they're frustrated because over the years, all
Speaker 2: the taxes that are built up, all the budgets that
Speaker 2: have built up, all the increases in home values that
Speaker 2: are built up, the increase in the price of cars,
Speaker 2: regulations and a million different reasons, and all the feature
Speaker 2: sets that are included in all these things make buying
Speaker 2: a car and a house and anything else much more difficult.
Speaker 2: They're just saddled with all that, and the government never says, Okay,
Speaker 2: we've been a little bit greedy. We'll dial it down.
Speaker 2: They go, if this doesn't happen, you won't get the
Speaker 2: fire department at your house when your house is on fire.
Speaker 2: They use fear tactics to handle stuff like that. You
Speaker 2: better keep paying for the rest of your life. You
Speaker 2: better keep paying. And it's going to get more expensive
Speaker 2: and more expensive for you and your kids and all
Speaker 2: this stuff. You better keep paying forever and don't complain.
Speaker 2: Otherwise the fire department won't show up at your house
Speaker 2: when it happens to catch you on like that. That's
Speaker 2: a really untenable long term situation. I say all these
Speaker 2: counties should be on the hook for any additional expenditures.
Speaker 2: We should monitor their budget incredibly close to make sure
Speaker 2: they're not wasting our money, because it's our money, and
Speaker 2: I say we should get a lot more benefits out
Speaker 2: of the money we are paying in.
Speaker 1: That's what I want.
Speaker 2: If you think that's crazy, well, I mean I don't
Speaker 2: think normal people do. I think a lot of people
Speaker 2: hear that and they go yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 2: that sounds about right to me. But let me know
Speaker 2: on the way out, because we got to do the

Speaker 2: All right, here's the story I tease, let me pay
Speaker 2: this off. The California woman who was an OnlyFans fetish
Speaker 2: star who ended up killing this guy, a fifty six
Speaker 2: year old named Michael Dale because he had a fetish
Speaker 2: to be glued up.
Speaker 1: I don't know if you heard anything about this glued
Speaker 1: up to something.
Speaker 2: He wanted to be wrapped in plastic like a mummy,
Speaker 2: and then he wanted her to glue women's boots to
Speaker 2: his feet. That was his fetish. She did it, and
Speaker 2: the guy died, and they just sentenced her. She got
Speaker 2: four years for this. Four years And.
Speaker 1: You don't think that's enough.
Speaker 2: I mean, it's kind of crazy, but he was willing
Speaker 2: he was a willing participant. He just happened to die
Speaker 2: during it. He paid more than eleven thousand dollars to
Speaker 2: do this fetish back and forth stuff, this role play.
Speaker 2: It's sure as hell is it was two consenting adults
Speaker 2: and it was BDSM. But the guy died and they said,
Speaker 2: you know, the guy was drunk when she got there,
Speaker 2: and she proceeded anyway, So maybe that was one of
Speaker 2: the reasons.
Speaker 1: But four years is what she got for that. You
Speaker 1: can tell us if you think that was enough or no, no, no.
Speaker 1: And with that, I think it's time to get the
Speaker 1: hell out of here. Here we go, friends, let's do today.
Speaker 2: I learned the following information may make you feel smarter,
Speaker 2: but will not actually increase your IQ, So don't get cocky.

Speaker 2: they almost immediately started redesigning things for a new set

Speaker 2: show Friends. So they learned this guy right here marked
