Speaker 1: Let's put our ears to the ground, our fingers on
Speaker 1: the pulse list, see what's happening to this great, big,
Speaker 1: wide world of ours. And we go to women's golf. Everybody, Yes,
Speaker 1: that's what we knew it was gonna happen. You knew
Speaker 1: we were gonna do it. Pig into sports, real big
Speaker 1: into women's golf.
Speaker 3: I got a lot to do today. Next up women's professional.
Speaker 3: I'm good, We're good.
Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, just just bear with me.
Speaker 1: There is a golfer, a women's golfer named Charlie. Charlie
Speaker 1: uh that's popping off as a girl's name these days,
Speaker 1: I think Charlie Hull. And she was telling a story
Speaker 1: at the LPGA event, and she thought it was the
Speaker 1: funniest thing in the world. And I think a lot
Speaker 1: of people like me were watching and going, you know what,
Speaker 1: I don't think this is funny. I don't think this
Speaker 1: is funny anymore. Here's her story. You can pick a
Speaker 1: side if you like. You can pick the golfer side
Speaker 1: or the guy she decided to pull a prank on
Speaker 1: her caddy, all right, the guy who like drags around
Speaker 1: the clubs and does the grunt work and whatnot.
Speaker 2: You pick aside the golfer the caddy. Here we go.
Speaker 4: It's good because I love playing for money. I'm not
Speaker 4: gonna lie like That's why I think I play so
Speaker 4: well in the.
Speaker 1: Majors, because even if.
Speaker 4: I'm quite a lot behind, I'm like, come and ads
Speaker 4: this and make loads of bed today, extra dollars from
Speaker 4: me and him together, all right.
Speaker 1: So I had no idea what she said there, but
Speaker 1: something along the lines of she loves playing for money. Yes,
Speaker 1: she loves making a bunch of money. She love getting
Speaker 1: rich off of the LPGA and women's golf, all right. Actually,
Speaker 1: talking of money to say. I was in the air.
Speaker 4: I went to a pank prank shopping Blackpool last night,
Speaker 4: and I've got some scratch cards. So we're go into
Speaker 4: the players lounge this morning and I was like, oh,
Speaker 4: I've got some scratch cards from the shop.
Speaker 1: He was like, oh yeah, I thought.
Speaker 4: This one was like one hundred thousand dollars, and we've
Speaker 4: got it all on record. He's like scratching it, scratching it, scratching.
Speaker 4: It's like, oh my gosh, of one. He's taken off.
Speaker 4: He's taking his bathes off. He's literally running around the
Speaker 4: players and saying, of one hundred thousand dollars.
Speaker 2: All right, let me translate.
Speaker 1: This lady is saying that she bought her caddie a
Speaker 1: fake lottery ticket and made him think he won one
Speaker 1: hundred thousand dollars. And he's he's running around, he's celebrating,
Speaker 1: he's enjoying himself, and she's you know, by the way,
Speaker 1: this is kind of slightly mildly funny when you and
Speaker 1: your poor friend do it to each other. When a
Speaker 1: rich person does it to a poor person, it's not funny. Okay,
Speaker 1: there's nothing funny about Like, imagine Elon Musk bought every
Speaker 1: employee of Twitter a fake lottery winning ticket, like right
Speaker 1: after he took over, right that point too. It's hilarious,
Speaker 1: isn't it hilarious? The poor people thought they had a
Speaker 1: chance for a second, Like, there's no there's no hilarity
Speaker 1: in a rich person like an Elon Musk.
Speaker 3: Come from it? Why are we just meeting him now?
Speaker 3: Hopefully it sticks around, But I gotta remember how I
Speaker 3: did that.
Speaker 2: She thinks it's funny.
Speaker 1: I'm saying it's not funny when a rich person does
Speaker 1: that to a person who's not nearly as wealthy as
Speaker 1: they are. Taking stay off.
Speaker 4: His face looks so happy, he was sweating, he was trembling.
Speaker 4: He couldn't believe his luck. And then we have to
Speaker 4: tend his fake can he nearly quit the job? I
Speaker 4: wonder why I got it all on camera, To be fair,
Speaker 4: I try and find it and I'll send it to somebody.
Speaker 4: But it is just absolutely hilarious. Like I don't know
Speaker 4: if you guys can see, this is his reaction.
Speaker 1: Yeah, so she's like holding up the phone as she
Speaker 1: recorded him. Yeah, this was you.
Speaker 3: And when he thought he went face on camera when
Speaker 3: he thought he was winning one hundred grim.
Speaker 1: Bro, you can't do this. You get like imagine doing this,
Speaker 1: Like if I Heart Brass came around and did this
Speaker 1: to like rank and file employees at the company. That's
Speaker 1: not how the prank works. The prank is to be
Speaker 1: done on one purple one poor person by another one,
Speaker 1: like if your if your family is poor, you could
Speaker 1: give one to your mom for Christmas. It's still messed
Speaker 1: up poor on poor crime exactly, Josh, this is poor
Speaker 1: on poor crime. That's what it's made for the moment
Speaker 1: somebody who's like wealthy gets involved in it. It seems
Speaker 1: me the iron Heart prank could be so much less too,
Speaker 1: Like you could just tell us there was free food
Speaker 1: and then and then pull that rug from under us
Speaker 1: and we'd be like, oh, go out into the lunch room.
Speaker 3: Said that there was a free Mexican it said guaranteed
Speaker 3: Cuman what happened?
Speaker 1: No, no, no no.
Speaker 2: So she's showing everything action when.
Speaker 4: He for you want one hundred thousand pounds, and it
Speaker 4: was just hilarious.
Speaker 2: I think like, oh, I'm gonna stop because I think
Speaker 2: he curses.
Speaker 1: I think he's like, holy f I want I'm so
Speaker 1: happ My wife's gonna be better now and then right
Speaker 1: back down to earth. When your boss tells you, now,
Speaker 1: I was just pranking you, you didn't.
Speaker 2: I think. I think that's right.
Speaker 1: I think it's wrong when a boss does it to
Speaker 1: an employee. I think when a wealthy person does it
Speaker 1: to a poor person, the fake lottery ticket prank is wrong.
Speaker 2: It's not very nice.
Speaker 1: He says. Professional caddies are poor. They're paid very well.
Speaker 1: I don't know what an LPGA caddy averages, but you guys,
Speaker 1: can you can you look that up for me. I'm
Speaker 1: guessing an LPGA caddy is not an incredibly wealthy individual,
Speaker 1: all right.
Speaker 2: I think they probably do okay.
Speaker 1: But there's a reason why he was so excited about
Speaker 1: one hundred thousand dollars because one hundred thousand dollars to
Speaker 1: him is a lot of money.
Speaker 5: Yeah, a lot. I earn a.
Speaker 3: Weekly based salary of twelve hundred and twenty two hundred dollars,
Speaker 3: plus a standard commission of ten percent for a tournament win,
Speaker 3: seven percent for a top ten finish, and five percent
Speaker 3: for other finishes inside the cut line.
Speaker 1: Yeah, they're not. They're not wealthy.
Speaker 6: They're not unless you're like the best golfer's caddy. You're
Speaker 6: doing pretty well.
Speaker 2: Unless your lady Tiger Woods caddy?
Speaker 1: Which Woods?
Speaker 2: Does anybody know?
Speaker 1: Anybody know who the greatest female golfer in the world
Speaker 1: is that?
Speaker 2: Like that person? Whoever?
Speaker 7: That is?
Speaker 2: Paige Sparenact lady.
Speaker 1: I only know the one that's famous for just being
Speaker 1: like half dressed all the time, the Paige Sparin Act.
Speaker 1: And she don't even think she's a professional golfer. I
Speaker 1: think she's I don't know, but this lady, I think
Speaker 1: is wrong.
Speaker 3: I think she just has an only fans in a
Speaker 3: back of clubs. That's it.
Speaker 1: You don't know what I'm talking about. I've never heard
Speaker 1: of the page Speirinact lady. No google it. Google what
Speaker 1: I'm so, she's something? I know she said something? Yeah
Speaker 1: what is she? She's three years old? Yeah, okay, former
Speaker 1: professional golfer. So I didn't have it totally wrong. But
Speaker 1: she is always in like the New York Post and
Speaker 1: stuff with like a female golf stories. So that's the
Speaker 1: only name I note related to this at all. But anyhow,
Speaker 1: I don't want to diverge from the topic too much.
Speaker 1: It's mean, it's mean, and it's wrong, and you shouldn't
Speaker 1: be doing this stuff. Okay, don't prank people who are
Speaker 1: poorer than you with a fake lottery winning ticket. Okay,
Speaker 1: just do it, does.
Speaker 3: And buy the people that are poorer than you real
Speaker 3: lottery tickets that take like twenty minutes to scratch off
Speaker 3: and none of them work.
Speaker 1: Let me tell you something that's ten thousand times nicer
Speaker 1: is it not to buy somebody a real lottery ticket?
Speaker 1: Is at least a potentiality that they could scratch that sucks? Say,
Speaker 1: and there's a chance as they's a little bit of
Speaker 1: a chance, a little, tiny, baby, tiny, little little chance,
Speaker 1: but there's still a chance. Nonetheless, Okay, we won. They
Speaker 1: backed down. We were successful. Everybody our pressure campaign worked
Speaker 1: against the National Football News.
Speaker 2: I knew we could do it. We did it.
Speaker 1: I got this this morning from our friend Marky, who
Speaker 1: we talked to about what was happening with this crunch
Speaker 1: on all of the all of the bars around the
Speaker 1: country and restaurants that put on the NFL games, And
Speaker 1: they were gonna have to pay thirty forty fifty thousand
Speaker 1: dollars to retro fit their restaurants with equipment to be
Speaker 1: able to show the games that people wanted before the
Speaker 1: football season, and after the pressure mounted, there was a buckling.
Speaker 1: And now we have a story that says DirectTV and
Speaker 1: ever pass have striked a distribution and expanded partnership deal
Speaker 1: around the NFL Sunday ticket striked, struck, strick again. Strike Yeah,
Speaker 1: DirecTV and ever Pass have a new multi year deal
Speaker 1: that will keep DirecTV for business distributing NFL Sunday tickets
Speaker 1: to bars, restaurants, hotels, casinos, and other commercial establishments in
Speaker 1: the United States of America. DirecTV had went on the
Speaker 1: offensive negotiations. Ever Pass had responded by saying it will
Speaker 1: no longer distribute their out of market package to bars
Speaker 1: and restaurants via satellite. It was going to force everybody,
Speaker 1: including three hundred thousand plus commercial locations, to buy all
Speaker 1: this equipment, to pay an outrageous sum of money to
Speaker 1: be able to show football games to you the fan.
Speaker 2: And finally they have made a deal. They have caved.
Speaker 1: They have succumbed to the pressure campaign and your local
Speaker 1: bar is not going to take that hit, which is
Speaker 1: good news and I'm happy about that today. For God's sake.
Speaker 3: One of the things that was super confusing to me,
Speaker 3: I know, I got at least understood a little bit
Speaker 3: why they would want the bars to get better internet
Speaker 3: if they were streaming all the games. Yeah, you need
Speaker 3: more bandwidth.
Speaker 1: I got the hum.
Speaker 3: But the boxes, They're like, you need to spend this
Speaker 3: many thousand dollars on a box for each of your TVs,
Speaker 3: for your distribution network or whatever. We need these, And
Speaker 3: I'm like, everything else streaming is an app? Yeah, how
Speaker 3: do they not have just an app for this?
Speaker 2: For Chrome casts, for firesticks?
Speaker 1: But whatever? Yeah, why would it not just be an app?
Speaker 3: And then you can go, all right, we got the app,
Speaker 3: We're done with you know, all the TV's run the
Speaker 3: app up and then they could it be because selin
Speaker 3: maybe they would be afraid that somebody would reverse engineer.
Speaker 1: Possibly, but the reverse engineer of the box too. Okay,
Speaker 1: can we reverse engineer direct TV? Can we do that?
Speaker 1: We used to be able to do that. We used
Speaker 1: to have those cards and stuff.
Speaker 3: The only the only silver lining to what they were offering,
Speaker 3: and this insane amount of money that they were charging
Speaker 3: for this was I do remember being opening day NFL
Speaker 3: at I think you mentioned it.
Speaker 1: We were talking about it.
Speaker 3: Tom's watchbar, had you know which they have just an
Speaker 3: insane amount of TVs, big ones, small ones, some as
Speaker 3: big as your head, so the way bigger than your head, Josh.
Speaker 3: And but it was a rainy day and the direct
Speaker 3: TV went goodbye. It started storming, and all of the
Speaker 3: football games just turned off. At least if you're streaming it.
Speaker 3: As long as your internet stays up, you're not losing
Speaker 3: those games.
Speaker 1: You know, which there's there's the worst thing that happens
Speaker 1: when you have direct TV and the weather interrupts. It's
Speaker 1: like when it starts to become all digitized and frames
Speaker 1: are freezing, like you know, the wide receiver starts turning
Speaker 1: into blocks of you know, code and stuff, and then
Speaker 1: and then finally you get that that little I don't
Speaker 1: know if they still do it, but the direct TV
Speaker 1: sign used to have the like the DVD icon style thing. Yes,
Speaker 1: Like you start staring at that for hours on end
Speaker 1: waiting for it to all and then the whole bar.
Speaker 3: Just goes oh well yeah, everybody gets real angry.
Speaker 1: But the good news is this is going to be
Speaker 1: great for all these bars out there that we're about
Speaker 1: to get squeezed. I know a lot of places we're
Speaker 1: worried about this, whether you know about it or not.
Speaker 2: That's why we wanted to give some attention to it.
Speaker 1: We won. They back down, they made a deal, they cracked.
Speaker 1: We beat them. Take that, NFL all right, take that.
Speaker 1: We win this round. That's one for us, five six
Speaker 1: hundred eighty six for your side. So we'll see what
Speaker 1: else happens here on the show today. See Lane is
Speaker 1: barely with us, just just barely. Almost died last night.
Speaker 1: I'm fine, almost died last night. By the way, Josh,
Speaker 1: how are you feeling? Just out of curiosity. I'm good
Speaker 1: because I have a little tickle in the back of
Speaker 1: my throat. And if celane, if ce Lane spread whatever
Speaker 1: he's been fighting off for the past several days, not
Speaker 1: only to his wife, but to me as well. And
Speaker 1: my weekend that I've been waiting so long for is
Speaker 1: somehow ruined by this.
Speaker 3: I'm going to lose my mind, So I will. I
Speaker 3: will think the fact that Josh feels great. He was
Speaker 3: closer to me last night than you were. And in general,
Speaker 3: you're stronger. He's stronger than you. He's younger and stronger. Yeah,
Speaker 3: he's been going to the gym. Is immune system. It's tougher.
Speaker 1: There's there's a lot of advantages he has over me,
Speaker 1: so this thing could take me out anyhow. See, Lane
Speaker 1: almost died last night. What was it that took you down?
Speaker 1: What was it?
Speaker 3: I was taking out the recycling, and then when I
Speaker 3: was coming back in the garage, I tripped on something.
Speaker 2: Don't even know what it was.
Speaker 3: No, there's a lot of there's a lot of crap
Speaker 3: in my garage, right, Yeah, it's it's rate my mess worthy.
Speaker 3: Oh god, especially right now. Won And no, I very
Speaker 3: much lost. I tripped and fell on my knees. So
Speaker 3: I have like weird, weirdly large bandages on both my
Speaker 3: knees right now. Oh no, I look ridiculous and I
Speaker 3: feel even dumber.
Speaker 1: Uh.
Speaker 3: And yeah, I just kind of sat there for like
Speaker 3: the most pregnant of ten seconds and just like, h
Speaker 3: what the hell?
Speaker 1: Man?
Speaker 2: Yeah, I called for help?
Speaker 1: Did you do it? Like a help? I was falling
Speaker 1: and I can't get up. Man, No, my wife didn't
Speaker 1: hear the damn thing. No, No, because I think she would.
Speaker 1: You think she would have let you die in that garage.
Speaker 5: You know.
Speaker 3: I think maybe after a while she would have out
Speaker 3: come out and been like, been a while, what are
Speaker 3: you doing?
Speaker 1: Here been several days you mean it? Do you mean
Speaker 1: a while, like a couple of days, or do you
Speaker 1: mean like the lady on the Titanic kind of for
Speaker 1: a while?
Speaker 3: You know, like maybe fifteen minutes at least. I would
Speaker 3: hope fifteen minutes, you know. If it was any longer,
Speaker 3: I would I would be concerned. So your knees are
Speaker 3: all knocked up, you got bandages on.
Speaker 1: Your scuffed up good god? All right, well look ridiculous,
Speaker 1: you do. Yeah, I mean, that's that's kind of par
Speaker 1: for the course. But to stay with the golf puns,
Speaker 1: we'll take quick break. When we come back, we'll get
Speaker 1: to your emails that were going to fire. You need
Speaker 1: to be catty about this. Uh ooh, nice, that's it.
Speaker 1: We'll stop. We're stopping it right there. Balls oh all
Speaker 1: the rest are filthy.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, Okay.
Speaker 1: When we come back, we'll talk about these videos that
Speaker 1: are just all over social media of sixty thousand people
Speaker 1: swarming into this Spanish territory. And I have for you
Speaker 1: the thing that nobody else either knows or can figure
Speaker 1: out or whatever in the news, the reason why this
Speaker 1: all happened. Everybody misses the boat on this I'll tell
Speaker 1: you the actual reason why.
Speaker 2: I'll explain it to you.
Speaker 1: If you haven't seen these insane videos, good time for
Speaker 1: you to pop over to YouTube dot com slash the
Speaker 1: News Junkie. We'll be back with that and so much
Speaker 1: more on a fun Friday show that is coming up
Speaker 1: next on The News Junkie. I don't know how many
Speaker 1: of you have seen these videos out of this. It's
Speaker 1: a Spanish territory. It's pronounced Souta in case you see
Speaker 1: it somewhere, but it's a CEU and the videos have
Speaker 1: just taken over social media, especially my feed. Last night.
Speaker 1: I was like, wow, this is everywhere right now because
Speaker 1: thousands and thousands, they said, sixty thousand plus people from Morocco,
Speaker 1: almost all of them young dudes, right like, young men
Speaker 1: from Morocco just started in this massive line making their
Speaker 1: way into this area called Pseudo Suda. And I'll explain
Speaker 1: a little bit more about what happened, but for those
Speaker 1: of you who are watching with us today on YouTube,
Speaker 1: I'll bring up a couple of videos. I'll explain it
Speaker 1: for you listening, just so you know what's going on.
Speaker 1: But the lines of people sixty thousand deep, it's just
Speaker 1: so crazy, you got to see this. Those are people
Speaker 1: along the coast of this Suda territory.
Speaker 2: Well, they're in Morocco right now.
Speaker 1: Before they get over to the fence, they go into
Speaker 1: the ocean and around this big border fence.
Speaker 2: Very secure, very very secure.
Speaker 1: Josh. We'll talk about that in a moment, because that's
Speaker 1: one of the big problems that people don't seem to
Speaker 1: understand about this. But there's a huge, huge, endless line
Speaker 1: of these young men flooding into this country.
Speaker 2: Right now.
Speaker 1: Where is it? Let me show you just a bit
Speaker 1: of this here. It's between Spain and North Africa. North
Speaker 1: Africa is down here, Spain is here, and people are like, well,
Speaker 1: hold on, how is there's a part of Spain in Africa. Well,
Speaker 1: there used to be a place called the Strait of
Speaker 1: Gibraltar where you could cross between those two continents. You
Speaker 1: could go from Spain into Africa. It's not really passable,
Speaker 1: or most of the time you can't get from one
Speaker 1: place to another now from but they're very close. The
Speaker 1: Straight of Gibraltar is right there. And there's this small
Speaker 1: territory on the top of Africa that is known as Suda,
Speaker 1: and it's Spanish territory. So right across from Spain and
Speaker 1: the Strait of Gibraltar, and it is in the north,
Speaker 1: the central North Africa is where this little connection is,
Speaker 1: and that little area, I think there's like eighty thousand
Speaker 1: people that live there or something somewhere around that. Like
Speaker 1: eighty thousand people live there and sixty thousand Moroccans came
Speaker 1: into the area. And some of the footage is just
Speaker 1: crazy to see. I mean, just piles of people crawling
Speaker 1: on people. It's like a zombie movie.
Speaker 6: And it's like a worldward Ze where they climb out
Speaker 6: on top of each other to build like towers of zombies.
Speaker 1: I've seen that comparison. Yeah, a lot of World War Ze.
Speaker 1: All look at it's all men, all young dudes, sixty
Speaker 1: thousand of them. I'm Spanish.
Speaker 5: Now.
Speaker 1: It's kind of bizarre because as they make their way
Speaker 1: into the Spanish territory, it's almost like they've just finished
Speaker 1: a four K or something like, yeah, I did it,
Speaker 1: you know, I made it in here again. I'll tell
Speaker 1: you what's really happening here at a moment. But all
Speaker 1: these guys, not a woman in sight, save for there
Speaker 1: was I think there was one. Yeah, there was one
Speaker 1: woman who was at the bridge right inside the city
Speaker 1: that they were going to, like waving them in. There's
Speaker 1: one mom like cann in all the reds ah god
Speaker 1: shirtless men endlessly and one vendos buzz. One woman filming
Speaker 1: with her phone like yeah, come on in. I don't
Speaker 1: know what her role in all of this is, but
Speaker 1: she was out there waving them on by, and the
Speaker 1: coverage was just absolutely explosive. Here's a sample.
Speaker 8: WOLD video here, chaos at the border of Spain's North
Speaker 8: African enclive in Morocco.
Speaker 1: This is a city called Suta.
Speaker 8: You're watching as thousands of migrants break through the fence
Speaker 8: and completely overwhelm the border police.
Speaker 2: Their graphic is wrong.
Speaker 1: In case you're paying attention, migrant storm border of northern Spain.
Speaker 1: This is definitely not northern Spain, the southern portion of
Speaker 1: Spain that's actually not even connected to Spain.
Speaker 8: Video showing huge groups of people, mostly young military guys,
Speaker 8: cramming into inflatable tubes or arriving on shore another way,
Speaker 8: some of them waiting in the water as they break
Speaker 8: through the gates. Crazy the other side, Sandra, this is
Speaker 8: reminiscent of kind of what we saw during the Open
Speaker 8: border during the Biden administration through twenty twenty one to twenty two,
Speaker 8: they were going to make that somewhere what we saw
Speaker 8: on Del Reel back in twenty twenty one. I don't
Speaker 8: think the Mexicans ever stormed the Rio Grand like this.
Speaker 1: I don't know if there was ever numbers like sixty
Speaker 1: thousand at once. No, No, it's very reminiscent of it.
Speaker 1: I mean, the first thing I thought of was Biden.
Speaker 1: There were a lot. Okay, I'm not gonna say there
Speaker 1: weren't a lot. There were a lot. But this looks
Speaker 1: like some sort of international competition that mister Beast is running. Right.
Speaker 1: This looks like mister Beaste says, if you cross over
Speaker 1: into Spanish territory, the first one that touches the statue
Speaker 1: in the center square is going to get a million dollars.
Speaker 1: That's what this looks like when I'm watching this. But
Speaker 1: they all start flooding into the the country and people
Speaker 1: are going, well, why is this happening?
Speaker 2: What's going on here? There are three reasons and.
Speaker 1: Most of the news outlets completely miss all this.
Speaker 2: They don't understand what's going on.
Speaker 1: Three reasons why sixty thousand Moroccan dudes just went around
Speaker 1: the fence and invaded this area that's Spanish territory. The
Speaker 1: first reason is there was a ruling in a court,
Speaker 1: the Supreme Court, I believe, of Spain, and the ruling
Speaker 1: said that if immigrants made their way to their country
Speaker 1: by water, they wouldn't be immediately expelled. All right. That
Speaker 1: was the ruling, all right. So the Spanish Supreme court
Speaker 1: said if immigrants enter Spain or Spanish territory via water,
Speaker 1: they wouldn't be immediately expelled, right.
Speaker 2: So that was the first thing that happened. Then Morocco.
Speaker 1: You got to remember Morocco's involved in this because these
Speaker 1: are all Moroccan people. Why are all these people running,
Speaker 1: why are they going across the border? Well, Morocco wants
Speaker 1: this land. Morocco's like, this is our territory, this is
Speaker 1: af this isn't Spain, this is Morocco. Here are So
Speaker 1: they've done this multiple times, but the Moroccans said, pull
Speaker 1: all of the guards. Do you notice there are no guards,
Speaker 1: no soldiers, Yeah, just one woman waving them in. There's
Speaker 1: the Moroccans. Because they want to take this territory from Spain.
Speaker 1: They've done this before. They pull their guards and all
Speaker 1: the guards are removed. And then the third thing that
Speaker 1: happen is almost completely to blame social media, social media, TikTok, Facebook,
Speaker 1: they start posting on all of these platforms. There were
Speaker 1: Google groups and Facebook groups and TikTok accounts. There's there's
Speaker 1: some of these groups that have hundreds of thousands of followers,
Speaker 1: and many of them have been taken down after this,
Speaker 1: but they coordinated this on social media platforms.
Speaker 2: Then people were making more.
Speaker 1: TikTok videos and they were swarming into this country because
Speaker 1: they were promised all sorts of stuff, like essentially they
Speaker 1: were promised you got a free pass, you're gonna make
Speaker 1: your way in, You're gonna get a job, like the
Speaker 1: social media stories were promising them jobs, money, you know,
Speaker 1: freedom and Spain, all of these things. So all these
Speaker 1: things work together with social media with Morocco wanting to
Speaker 1: take this territory back because they think it's their it's
Speaker 1: part of their country and their continent and not Spain,
Speaker 1: and they pull the guards as all this momentum is
Speaker 1: going from this Spanish court decision. That's what led to
Speaker 1: the situation that we saw with sixty thousand people crossing him.
Speaker 1: The other piece that you might not learn is they
Speaker 1: started turning him around pretty quickly, though there's not a
Speaker 1: video of that. I think within twenty four hours, twenty
Speaker 1: five thousand of them had been sent back. They said
Speaker 1: get out of here. They'd sent them back, not not
Speaker 1: before they caused a bunch of chaos. They were like
Speaker 1: invading homes, they were busting into stores, they were trying
Speaker 1: windows open the people's houses. Like imagine freeing a music
Speaker 1: festival full of people, like a major music festival full
Speaker 1: of people, into any city and just saying run wild, right,
Speaker 1: and then everybody's kind of hyped up by the social
Speaker 1: media aspects of it. That's what ends up happening in
Speaker 1: this case. So yeah, it happened right there, and this
Speaker 1: little little tip of Africa right across from Spain. I
Speaker 1: don't think people know, Like, what's the famous the famous
Speaker 1: painting of God touching the finger of man? Is that it?
Speaker 1: You know what I'm talking about? What is what is that?
Speaker 1: Da Vinci?
Speaker 2: Who is that? It's like, look that up for me.
Speaker 6: Adam, thank you Josh by michael Angelo.
Speaker 1: Michaelangelo michael Angelo's creation of Adam where they're like touching fingers.
Speaker 2: That's how and a lot of people don't know this.
Speaker 1: Spain touches very very close to the continent of Africa
Speaker 1: and that's Moroccan territory except for this little tip area
Speaker 1: which is super rude. And I've seen this before. Morocco
Speaker 1: got so cucked out of territory. This is the coast
Speaker 1: of Morocco, and a bunch of the coast of Morocco
Speaker 1: is actually not even Moroccan territory. All the beach, the
Speaker 1: beach on one whole side of Morocco.
Speaker 2: This classic.
Speaker 1: Yes, Spain was like, we don't have enough beach our
Speaker 1: in our country. It seems like you got some beach
Speaker 1: over there. We're going to take some of your beach.
Speaker 1: Be real unfortunate if somebody took your beach from you.
Speaker 1: That's what happened in this case. So give us your
Speaker 1: thoughts on this. It was wild seeing those videos spread
Speaker 1: out over social media, which kind of caused it to
Speaker 1: begin with, We'll see what you think. Send a dispatch
Speaker 1: over at thenewsjunkie dot com. All right, um, let's see
Speaker 1: here a couple of emails coming in tips at the
Speaker 1: Newsjunkie dot com and Shelby emails the show.
Speaker 2: Hey Sean I just wanted.
Speaker 1: To thank you and remind you of what you do
Speaker 1: for your listeners every day. While some people may think
Speaker 1: this is just a radio show, you see, Lane and
Speaker 1: Josh help your listeners take our mind off of things.
Speaker 1: You give us some sense of reality and normalcy, and
Speaker 1: occasionally make us laugh. My cousin was shot at work
Speaker 1: this morning. Jesus holy cow. I've attached the news story below,
Speaker 1: as you are the news junkie. Just trying to navigate
Speaker 1: the morning in the unknown and so much uncertainty is
Speaker 1: one thing, but it was very comforting to have you
Speaker 1: guys to listen to, just like normal. So thank you,
Speaker 1: says Shelby. Well, God, almighty damn. I mean that sucks.
Speaker 1: Thoughts with him. I guess he you know, her cousin
Speaker 1: got shot at work today or whatever. But I'll take
Speaker 1: a look at that story, let me know if there's
Speaker 1: anything more to it. And thoughts out to you and
Speaker 1: your family obviously in the moment. Thank you for the
Speaker 1: kind words as well. Lewis emails the show he said
Speaker 1: you said yesterday sixty six percent of gen Z workers
Speaker 1: slack off at work. Lewis says one hundred percent of
Speaker 1: people slack off at work, and it's not just a
Speaker 1: digital thing. I've held many jobs when I was younger,
Speaker 1: and there were jobs where we had to be there
Speaker 1: nine to five, but as long as we got the
Speaker 1: work done, it was all good. I don't know if
Speaker 1: it was because I was, you ually the youngest person
Speaker 1: at most jobs, but my mentality was always let's bust
Speaker 1: out the work quick and get three hours of doing
Speaker 1: whatever we want. When I worked at Target, every hour
Speaker 1: we had a certain number of.
Speaker 2: Tacks to do.
Speaker 1: Sometimes it was just one task, he says, so we'd
Speaker 1: go find a place to nap. Oh, we talked about
Speaker 1: this before. I think I think I might have talked
Speaker 1: about this email before. But he's saying they would party
Speaker 1: hard and work hard over at Target. Here's another one.
Speaker 1: Shoeless in Syracuse emails tips at the News Junkie dot com.
Speaker 2: Hey, News Junkie.
Speaker 1: Sea Land and Josh caught a lot of the show
Speaker 1: on a Thursday this week. You were talking about flock
Speaker 1: sign bases and certain groups are concerned about the proximity
Speaker 1: to the road. Yes, it's a thing to have a
Speaker 1: fringible base for safety. I work in the aviation industry,
Speaker 1: so I'm loosely related. Every sign around the airport has
Speaker 1: to have a base that can sheer off the problem
Speaker 1: with these flock cameras is the polls that they're on
Speaker 1: do not break when somebody crashes into them, so they
Speaker 1: do pose a danger, actually, says Shoe Lisby and Syric.
Speaker 1: Thank you for that. We'll get to more of your
Speaker 1: feedback tips at the news Junkie dot com.
Speaker 2: T I P.
Speaker 1: S at thenewsjunkie dot com. Sorry, I read that yesterday.
Speaker 3: I read I read the thing about the flock cameras
Speaker 3: that we talked about yesterday, and yeah, I get that
Speaker 3: there's a there's a certain uh standard of a breakability
Speaker 3: that has to happen for road signs, for things that
Speaker 3: are too close to the car.
Speaker 5: Yeah.
Speaker 1: I think what was annoying.
Speaker 3: Me about it was like the the story made it
Speaker 3: sound like they would cause more crashes, and I'm like,
Speaker 3: that's just not a thing, you know, unless yeah, unless
Speaker 3: there's like big mirrors on top of them that are
Speaker 3: like reflecting some in people's faces, they're not causing crashes.
Speaker 3: They're just causing more damage if you crash into them,
Speaker 3: which is a bad thing. But you know, while we're
Speaker 3: trying to pick every little thing we can hate about
Speaker 3: the flock cameras. They're really going on the the you know,
Speaker 3: on the offensive for everything, and this just seems like
Speaker 3: kind of a fringe thing to be pissed at.
Speaker 1: I think we might be in agreement here, Selan, because
Speaker 1: where we're at on the flock cameras, I think is
Speaker 1: everybody got their torches out, and everybody was like, these
Speaker 1: things are outrageous and it's violating our Fourth Amendment rides,
Speaker 1: and and there was some like legitimate concerns right off
Speaker 1: the jump. It kind of turned into the data center
Speaker 1: thing too, where in the midst of all the legitimate
Speaker 1: gripes and concerns, then all of a sudden people bring
Speaker 1: up in the back and this too, And I go, well,
Speaker 1: I don't know, that doesn't seem like that doesn't seem
Speaker 1: like it's as big of a deal all our water. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I get you. Go, well, I don't know that I'm
Speaker 1: scared of the flock cameras because I'm gonna crash into
Speaker 1: them and not they're not going to break off, you know.
Speaker 1: I'm much more worried about people being snooped on when
Speaker 1: they're not doing anything wrong, and people abusing their power
Speaker 1: to search all the information, which is a lot that's
Speaker 1: captured by these flock cameras. And we've already seen the
Speaker 1: police officers have been caught doing that, so that's what
Speaker 1: I think the concern is. But people got to spun
Speaker 1: out of control on and they're just everything flock is bad.
Speaker 1: All right, we'll see what you think about all this.
Speaker 1: Sent us your dispatches and when we come back. Excuse me,
Speaker 1: I apologize. I have a story that I cannot No,
Speaker 1: it's not yours. I have a story that I cannot
Speaker 1: put near any sort of possible eating hour, So I'm
Speaker 1: gonna I'm gonna kick that down the road. I want
Speaker 1: to tell you something about Spider Man this weekend that's nuts.
Speaker 1: But uh, there's a TSA story that we have to
Speaker 1: talk about next, and I may be totally wrong on this.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna say some things when we come back, and
Speaker 1: they they may be insane, but we'll see how it
Speaker 1: goes with this TSA story that's coming next. I'm the
Speaker 1: news chunkie. This is the dumbest thing I've ever argued
Speaker 1: with chat about in the history of the show. Legitimately
Speaker 1: it is I didn't want to bring this up. Did
Speaker 1: not want to talk about this, but one of the
Speaker 1: distractions I saw this week. You know, there's all this
Speaker 1: stuff going on around the world, and I saw an
Speaker 1: argument online and I thought, this is like such a
Speaker 1: no brainer to me, but everybody seems to be going
Speaker 1: the other direction. I blame laziness, but I'll explain. There
Speaker 1: was a viral question that kicked all of this off.
Speaker 1: You have two options, all right, and I'll make them
Speaker 1: as simple and clear cut as I can see. Lane
Speaker 1: and Josh tell me which are the options you'd take,
Speaker 1: and I'll tell you if you're right or wrong about
Speaker 1: this in your answer. Option number one one million dollars.
Speaker 1: That's it. It's a million dollars in a suitcase. It's
Speaker 1: tax free. There, it is a million dollars. Here you go. Congratulations,
Speaker 1: that's option number one. We're clear on that right. Million
Speaker 1: dollars sound good, briefcase, no taxes. Option number one is
Speaker 1: a million dollars. Option number two is fifty dollars per
Speaker 1: pickle for the rest of your life. It is so
Speaker 1: obvious to me that fifty dollars per pickle for the
Speaker 1: rest of your life is a better financial decision. In
Speaker 1: absolutely every way. But everybody just wants the one million
Speaker 1: dollar piece. Case you get fifty dollars every time you
Speaker 1: neat a pickle, every pickle you eat for the rest
Speaker 1: of your life, you every single one. And I know this,
Speaker 1: like this would matter, age would matter a little bit.
Speaker 1: Like if I'm ninety five years old, just give me
Speaker 1: a million dollars, right, But if I get you a million,
Speaker 1: I have to eat twenty thousand pickles. Correct, Yeah, but
Speaker 1: all you need to do is eat what one hundred
Speaker 1: pickles a day?
Speaker 2: Right, one hundred pickles a day. I could eat one
Speaker 2: hundred pickles.
Speaker 1: To be so swollen from the salt. Yeah, well, I
Speaker 1: don't know what the health implications are, but the money
Speaker 1: is endless.
Speaker 3: If you eat fifty five pickles a day for a year,
Speaker 3: you'll get to a million dollars. But fifty five pickles.
Speaker 1: That's not that bad at all, Yes, it is.
Speaker 6: Why unless you can do like handfuls of gerkins or
Speaker 6: something like.
Speaker 2: Pickle is a pickle. It doesn't matter what you're like.
Speaker 1: If you want you want to pick one, you want
Speaker 1: a little one, whatever you want to do, you just
Speaker 1: have to eat something that would be considered a pickle.
Speaker 3: You would have to eat about three and a half
Speaker 3: pickles every hour that you're awake.
Speaker 1: That's fine, that's not that bad. Too much your body
Speaker 1: will shut down.
Speaker 6: Also, I hate to be pedantic here, shallow and pedantic.
Speaker 1: Do it? Do it?
Speaker 6: Sour kraut is technically pickles? Does every individual shred of
Speaker 6: cabbage count as a singular pickle?
Speaker 1: No? This is great, that's fine, you can do that.
Speaker 1: But let's just be clear about this. It has to
Speaker 1: be a pickle shape pickle, right. If it could be
Speaker 1: a little small one, that's fine, but it just has
Speaker 1: to be something we would all consider a pickle.
Speaker 2: We would all look at it and go, yep, that's
Speaker 2: a pick.
Speaker 1: It's got to be a cucumber, is what you're saying. Yes,
Speaker 1: it has to have derived from a cucumber. It could
Speaker 1: be small or whatever. That's totally fine, but it has
Speaker 1: to be a pickle. If you ate three of them
Speaker 1: an hour, three little pickles an hour, you're a millionaire?
Speaker 2: Are you kidding me?
Speaker 1: You have to go the whole year, yes, and then
Speaker 1: for the rest of your life you can. Once you've
Speaker 1: got the million dollars, then you could go, how much
Speaker 1: money do I want to make today? Do I want
Speaker 1: to make a hundred bucks two pickles? Do I want
Speaker 1: to make five thousand buck? You know, the possibilities are endless.
Speaker 1: I don't want to be Dave Ramsey here, but it's
Speaker 1: quite obvious that you guys are making bad financial decisions
Speaker 1: when you say I would just take the briefcase with
Speaker 1: a million dollars and not take the unending well of
Speaker 1: Scrooge McDuck like pickle money that you would get if
Speaker 1: you just chose to do a little extra work and
Speaker 1: eating the pickles every single day.
Speaker 6: This is different from that pushup scenario that we had
Speaker 6: a month or so ago. This is easy and that
Speaker 6: Kate well. In the pushup scenario, you get jacked at
Speaker 6: the same time in this case, your health is going
Speaker 6: to decline every year you make more pickle money.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's not true.
Speaker 3: You're gonna spend all your pickle money on blood pressure medication.
Speaker 2: That doesn't have to be true.
Speaker 1: You can have a balanced diet and have that many pickles,
Speaker 1: and you just have to think about that and work
Speaker 1: on it a little bit and then offset the amount
Speaker 1: of like salt or whatever it is you're taking in.
Speaker 2: And I think you could be fine and healthy and then.
Speaker 1: You would have the ability to just earn as much
Speaker 1: or as little as you want each day, travel the world,
Speaker 1: eating little pickles, making money every single time.
Speaker 2: This isn't hard, This isn't rocket science.
Speaker 1: So I don't understand why you you guys wouldn't wait, wait,
Speaker 1: let me ask, Let me ask you flat out, Selane.
Speaker 1: You take the briefcase with a million dollars or the
Speaker 1: fifty dollars a pickle for life?
Speaker 3: If I could go gurkins like little tiny pickles, you can.
Speaker 1: I might.
Speaker 3: I might go with the fifty dollars, but the million
Speaker 3: dollars is really enticing.
Speaker 1: Josh, Do you take the suitcase worth with a million
Speaker 1: dollars in cash, tax free or the pickles fifty dollars
Speaker 1: for the rest of your life?
Speaker 6: For each one, I'm taking million dollars cash and shrewdly investing.
Speaker 2: Yeah, what happens if you take that?
Speaker 1: Your investment goes south and then it implodes and all
Speaker 1: of your money is gone. And now I'm popping back pickles,
Speaker 1: and I'm like, oh, Josh, must suck.
Speaker 5: To be you.
Speaker 1: Making money for president down the street and I'll be rich.
Speaker 1: I'll be rich at what cost? And there's no cost.
Speaker 1: I'm just making money. I will be This is such
Speaker 1: a smarter move. I don't want to talk about this.
Speaker 1: I want to get to the Tsaul walls. Call me
Speaker 1: what you want, say whatever slur you want. It's the
Speaker 1: low key, great insult. No, Josh is not the voice
Speaker 1: of reason, he said. The reason is on the side
Speaker 1: of picking up a job where eating pickles is your
Speaker 1: revenue maker. There's no better lot in life than that,
Speaker 1: like literally, And the only thing people are taking any
Speaker 1: issue with is because some of you are anti pick lights.
Speaker 2: And that's fine, I get it.
Speaker 1: But if I said, uh, like a skittle, or if
Speaker 1: I said a shot of tequila, a lot of you
Speaker 1: people would be changing your minds right now. If I
Speaker 1: said every shot at the Kili you get fifty bucks,
Speaker 1: all right, Yeah, what a life to live. I'd do that.
Speaker 1: That's much more bad for you than the pickle deal. Now,
Speaker 1: who's this person offering this? I don't know. I don't know,
Speaker 1: but I think it is a testament to your financial savviness.
Speaker 1: Classic blastic. It could be. It could be blastic, Big
Speaker 1: Pickle coming in on this. There's there's been a lot
Speaker 1: of discussion of this over the week and people get
Speaker 1: very heated. But I think the answer is just to
Speaker 1: make that fifty bucks a pop.
Speaker 2: And what I wanted to hear.
Speaker 1: The only reason I brought this up is because medical
Speaker 1: professionals tell us what the issue would be that would
Speaker 1: that would arise from this, or could you offset all
Speaker 1: of the health implications of the pickle side of this
Speaker 1: deal if you just were smart about the other things
Speaker 1: that you ate.
Speaker 3: Mike, I think it was Mike and Chat said they
Speaker 3: already asked Chad GBT about it, and the chat GBT said,
Speaker 3: you would die in forty five days.
Speaker 1: Not no shot, No, you would die from eating a
Speaker 1: couple of pickles every day? No couple? How many did
Speaker 1: he say? Do you? Can you see what he said?
Speaker 1: I don't know. Forty five days of what a billion pickles? Yeah,
Speaker 1: I don't want to talk about this anymore. Anyways, you
Speaker 1: can join us on the show. I'm not wrong, not right.
Speaker 1: This is a smart decision. It's actually an easy decision.
Speaker 1: We'll see what you have to say about this. Tips
Speaker 1: at the news Junkie dot com, Tips t I P
Speaker 1: s at the Newsjunkie dot com, or send your dispatches.
Speaker 1: Record those over at the News junkie dot Com. Right now,
Speaker 1: the TSA story. This is actual important story, not some stupid,
Speaker 1: stupid question. For God's sake, don you want to talk.
Speaker 2: About this pickle thing eight minutes later.
Speaker 1: In the weekend edition has to be filled with something, Okay,
Speaker 1: pickle banter. Pickle banter work. Sometimes people they're at home
Speaker 1: right now, they're going now, I'll tell you what they
Speaker 1: My decision is, they're doing that right now. Okay. I
Speaker 1: have a quick question, and this may make me sound
Speaker 1: very stupid, but I'm still gonna ask. Let me bring
Speaker 1: up this story in front of me. Do we have
Speaker 1: time or should I wait until after the break to
Speaker 1: do this?
Speaker 9: Right?
Speaker 3: How long is it going to take you? You're teasing
Speaker 3: that you have a lot of serious crazy takes about this.
Speaker 1: I made the pickle thing last eight minutes, so I
Speaker 1: don't see this going by that fact exactly.
Speaker 2: Let's take a very quick break, rapid fast break.
Speaker 1: Right when we come back, I'll tell you something that
Speaker 1: the TSA find A found that made me. I don't know.
Speaker 1: I have a lot of questions and I don't know
Speaker 1: if I'm the crazy one here, but I'm going to
Speaker 1: ask those to everybody.
Speaker 2: We'll use all of our brains together.
Speaker 1: We have the info coming in about Nolan Wells and
Speaker 1: his autopsy and that big mystery. We have a whole
Speaker 1: bunch more to get to the Spider Man story that's
Speaker 1: going to be massive at the box office this weekend.
Speaker 1: All of that is coming up next on The News Junkie.
Speaker 2: This may be stupid. I don't want to be stupid.
Speaker 1: I try to sound informed and I usually know what
Speaker 1: I'm talking about on this show. But this is territory.
Speaker 1: That's new territory for me. The TSA posted this story
Speaker 1: about something that they found and everybody freaked out when
Speaker 1: they found it, and I was, like, I said, if
Speaker 1: I was in that room and they discovered this when
Speaker 1: I was there, I wouldn't be freaked out. And I
Speaker 1: can't tell if they're dumb or if I'm dumb. Somebody's dumb, right,
Speaker 1: somebody is dumb. Here's the story. Airport security officers in
Speaker 1: Alabama recently found something a lot older than your average
Speaker 1: seized items. They found five Civil War era cannonballs packed
Speaker 1: in a checked suitcase. So TSA officials at the Gulf
Speaker 1: Shores International Airport say a routine luggage scan revealed two
Speaker 1: grapefruit sized balls and three smaller rusted spheres so dense
Speaker 1: the machine couldn't even see through them, prompting fears they
Speaker 1: might still be live.
Speaker 2: And somebody says, my first thought was I.
Speaker 1: Couldn't see a fuse, and I needed to get some
Speaker 1: help really quick, said the TSA officer, justin Dupree. I
Speaker 1: couldn't see the entire item, but I was scared I
Speaker 1: might be holding a live explosive. And so they started
Speaker 1: looking at these and they go, holy cow, look we
Speaker 1: found these Civil War era cannonballs. And they were panicking.
Speaker 1: They're running around like something's going to blow up. This
Speaker 1: is a catastrophe. Am I crazy? Isn't a cannonball just
Speaker 1: a ball? Yeah? I thought so, it's like cast iron.
Speaker 1: I think, like, it wasn't a Civil War cannonball literally
Speaker 1: just like a ball. And then you you utilized explosives
Speaker 1: like gunpowder to fire the ball out of a cannon
Speaker 1: at say another ship or something to destroy things. But
Speaker 1: like a cannon ball doesn't blow up.
Speaker 6: Right, No, it's it's pure destructive power. Is the force
Speaker 6: behind it?
Speaker 1: Yes, well, said Josh, That's what I thought. I was like,
Speaker 1: these people are running all over the place and freaking
Speaker 1: out because they think that they're in danger. And I said,
Speaker 1: maybe I'm the stupid one here, but I don't believe
Speaker 1: that a cannonball is an explosive thing. I think it's
Speaker 1: just a projectile more than anything. They say it was
Speaker 1: the most unique find of the TSA officer's career. But
Speaker 1: everybody was panicking and freaking out as they found this
Speaker 1: at this airport.
Speaker 3: Like having a bag of BB's, you know, but no
Speaker 3: BB gun, right, yeah.
Speaker 1: Like less dangerous by far than a bullet. A bullet
Speaker 1: still has an inherent danger to it, right, but it
Speaker 1: is an explosive, a small explosive like a cannonball. Seeings
Speaker 1: cannon is not what I would consider to be a
Speaker 1: dangerous thing.
Speaker 6: Apparently there were some somewhere along the line that were
Speaker 6: hollow and they would fill them with gunpowder and put
Speaker 6: a fuse in.
Speaker 1: Oh really yeah, So it depends historically at what point
Speaker 1: on it is where whether it's going to be an
Speaker 1: explosive or not. It was more dangerous at some point,
Speaker 1: I guess the Civil War era cannonballs were found in
Speaker 1: this check luggage. They just look like I don't know, honest,
Speaker 1: it was like a meatball. It looks like I'm looking
Speaker 1: at a giant meatball here.
Speaker 3: Of all the Civil War era artifacts you could have,
Speaker 3: the cannonball does seem to be the most boring. Is
Speaker 3: basically just a big metal paper weight and like, and
Speaker 3: these were stolen?
Speaker 2: Did it say where they were stolen from?
Speaker 6: So?
Speaker 2: Did it say they were stolen?
Speaker 1: Yeah? Yeah, it's in the headline, Yeah, yeah, so it said.
Speaker 1: After determining there were no explosive threat, the deputies question
Speaker 1: a woman and a boy traveling with her. They surrendered
Speaker 1: the items and continued on to Oklahoma City without charges.
Speaker 1: Investigators later linked the relics to nearby Fort Morgan, and
Speaker 1: the munitions have since been returned there. The boys stole
Speaker 1: the cannon balls from the fort and put him in
Speaker 1: his grandma's bag. The Associated Press reports. The woman said
Speaker 1: she didn't know they were stolen, and authorities at the site,
Speaker 1: which is operated by the Alabama Historical Commission, declined to
Speaker 1: press charges. They should have put him in jail for
Speaker 1: stealing these damn things. Why is it so easy to
Speaker 1: steal a Civil War cannonbal? Maybe there's just piles of
Speaker 1: them like all over. Yeah, I've heard of people trying
Speaker 1: to steal the skulls from the catacombs, you know, like
Speaker 1: people will go to these historic sites and steal stuff.
Speaker 1: There was a guy on four Chan who I think
Speaker 1: one time had a stolen skull from the catacombs, and
Speaker 1: then he asked everybody on the website what he should
Speaker 1: do with it, and they proceeded to tell him to
Speaker 1: do exactly what you're thinking they would tell him to
Speaker 1: do with it. And well, yeah, she was so five
Speaker 1: seconds to to get to that point.
Speaker 3: Yeah, you know, I'm considering the source here.
Speaker 1: There's a fortune. Yeah, people are animals. Although I do
Speaker 1: like how the grandma was like, I didn't know they
Speaker 1: were stolen. Grandma, he put a massive cannonball in your
Speaker 1: bag and he's like, put it in your purse, put
Speaker 1: it in your perse, And you didn't think for a
Speaker 1: moment that that might not be your your grandsons or
Speaker 1: your sons or whatever. I don't know what's happening here,
Speaker 1: but there, I wouldn't have been scared of this. Maybe
Speaker 1: you would have let us know, you think. Send a
Speaker 1: dispatch over at thenewschunki dot com. The movie that's not
Speaker 1: just going to be big, but going to be massive
Speaker 1: this weekend some of the numbers I'm hearing about Spider
Speaker 1: Man are so crazy.
Speaker 2: I had to have Courtney check.
Speaker 1: I said, Cordy, fire up your phone and start looking
Speaker 1: at Fandango and the different theaters around us and see
Speaker 1: if Spider Man.
Speaker 2: Really is going to be this big at the box
Speaker 2: office this weekend.
Speaker 1: They're saying it could do three hundred and seventy five
Speaker 1: million dollars at the box office this weekend. See, like,
Speaker 1: look what the record is. What's what's the total? What
Speaker 1: the first weekend total record? It's got to be close
Speaker 1: to that, because there's some idea that maybe it could
Speaker 1: break that. Even for an opening three hundred and seventy
Speaker 1: five million dollars, the New Spider Man movie might make. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that's that's big.
Speaker 3: Avengers Endgame has the top opening weekend domestic UH for
Speaker 3: three hundred and fifty seven point one million, so it
Speaker 3: could be the biggest movie opening weekend in the United
Speaker 3: States of all time. Man Avengers Endgame did one point
Speaker 3: two billion worldwide in its first weekend.
Speaker 1: I owed one weekend. Yes, holy cow. Yeah, And there
Speaker 1: they're saying that Spider Man could do those kind of numbers.
Speaker 1: The New Spider Man movie is on track to be
Speaker 1: that big of a runaway hit at the box office.
Speaker 1: Why this one?
Speaker 3: I mean, there's been a handful of these Spider Man
Speaker 3: Spider Man movies. Now, why why is this one the
Speaker 3: one that everybody's going crazy over?
Speaker 1: I don't know, I know, so maybe somebody saw this
Speaker 1: and they'll give us a heads up with a dispatcher anymore.
Speaker 3: Friend of mine already posted on Facebook this morning, He's like,
Speaker 3: I saw Spider Man last night and it's the best
Speaker 3: Spider Man movie of all time?
Speaker 1: Did he say? Why? Is it like more exciting? Is
Speaker 1: there like a surprise in it? Do we get like
Speaker 1: a new face off with a villain? There's got to
Speaker 1: be something there.
Speaker 6: I think it's been five years since the last one,
Speaker 6: so as it generates some interest.
Speaker 1: Plus people are liking that. What's the actor's name again,
Speaker 1: Tom Holland, Tom Holland. People are liking Tom Holland right now.
Speaker 1: Fingers for him.
Speaker 2: I know the scene was.
Speaker 1: Mark Ruffalo in the other ones. He's in the Avengers movies.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I know, but he's he's in this one.
Speaker 3: I should at least say, because a lot of people
Speaker 3: came at me earlier in the week. He's on the
Speaker 3: IMDb page for it. Okay, because people came at me.
Speaker 3: They're like, uh, May died in the last one. They
Speaker 3: killed off Aunt May in the last one. I'm like,
Speaker 3: she's on the IMDb page. So maybe there's gonna be
Speaker 3: some flashbacks. Yeah, like they did with the old Uncle
Speaker 3: Ben back in the day. Did the spider fans come
Speaker 3: after you? You got like a Spider Man whiplash?
Speaker 1: Yeah, caught up in their web. I don't want to
Speaker 1: get caught up in that web, but I do want
Speaker 1: to tell you it looks like it's going to be
Speaker 1: a massive sensation this weekend. For those of you who
Speaker 1: have seen it. Let us know what you think. Send
Speaker 1: a dispatch over at thenewschunkie dot com. All right, let's
Speaker 1: see here a couple of people who are chiming in
Speaker 1: on the show. I don't want to talk about the
Speaker 1: pickle thing I did. There's so many dispatches about the
Speaker 1: pickle thing. I do not want to talk about that.
Speaker 1: Let's try something else first. Here's laying down the law
Speaker 1: talking about the cannonball. Good morning News junkies are happy.
Speaker 2: Aloha Friday, you too, Saturday Sunday.
Speaker 9: I know about cannonballs from watching Bugs Bunny cartoons, and
Speaker 9: if you've watched those, you would know there.
Speaker 1: Is a fuse that you can light and then it
Speaker 1: goes kubboom.
Speaker 9: So I don't blame that guy at all at tsay
Speaker 9: for being a little freaked out and cautious, especially if
Speaker 9: you noticed a Weskley webbon hanging around.
Speaker 1: Wiggle pop pop, Okay, alright, thank you, all right, she's
Speaker 1: she's not wrong. Actually she's not wrong what she's saying.
Speaker 1: You do remember from the cartoons, like the bomb would
Speaker 1: have a bomb, yeah, not a cannon ball. Cannonball you
Speaker 1: just stuff in there. And then you know that's why
Speaker 1: you can have a human cannon ball, because you could
Speaker 1: put like some guy in there and fire him off
Speaker 1: at a net or something. It is the same kind
Speaker 1: of thing. But you knew that. Here is uh, here's
Speaker 1: daddy two times with a dispatch.
Speaker 10: Man getting paid to eat something you love sounds awesome,
Speaker 10: and I love me some pickles. However, I don't love
Speaker 10: all the sodiums that comes with them, because with that
Speaker 10: comes and increase chance of heart disease, heart attack, all
Speaker 10: that kind of stuff. So uh, I got to find
Speaker 10: another way to get the money and avoid death. By
Speaker 10: pickle suit.
Speaker 1: Death by pickle sounds so horrific. This was By the way,
Speaker 1: if you're just tuning in, I apologize. I did not
Speaker 1: want this to continue. This was the viral question of
Speaker 1: the week. Would you rather have a million dollars instantly
Speaker 1: in a briefcase or you get paid fifty dollars for
Speaker 1: every pickle you eat for the rest of your life?
Speaker 1: And all I said, which I don't think is controversial
Speaker 1: at all, was that I think the fifty dollars per
Speaker 1: pickle option is a smarter financial decision because you can
Speaker 1: make if you have a lot of life left, you
Speaker 1: can make a much more significant amount of money.
Speaker 2: It's an endless well you can.
Speaker 1: You can have so much money that you could have
Speaker 1: like a professional doctor, like monitoring your levels to make
Speaker 1: sure that you're healthy through the process and whatnot. So
Speaker 1: I don't want to get suck on that, but there
Speaker 1: you are. Here's another one on the same topic. Here's chaos.
Speaker 11: All right, Sean, You're completely wrong on this.
Speaker 9: Okay, why stupid I would even say retarded their pickles
Speaker 9: a day is like seventy to one hundred and twenty
Speaker 9: thousand milligrams of sodium a day.
Speaker 5: Which they're recommended.
Speaker 9: About for humans at max is one hundred and or
Speaker 9: twelve hundred a day. Not only are you dumb for
Speaker 9: doing that, you're better off putting that one million dollars
Speaker 9: into the S and P five hundred good luck for
Speaker 9: the rest of your life because with this pickle thing,
Speaker 9: you're living at max a day, so you're not really
Speaker 9: making that much money. And don't don't you stay ramsy? Okay,
Speaker 9: Caleb Hammer is ten times better and your highest rate.
Speaker 1: It This is your focus financial people, wiggle wiggle pot pop,
Speaker 1: that's your focus on all of this. I stand by
Speaker 1: what I said. I stand by everything that I said,
Speaker 1: and I don't want to talk about this anymore. I
Speaker 1: want to move on. We've got millions. How many pickles?
Speaker 1: I want to Kalo Pammer? Is his voice that high?
Speaker 1: You're spending how much on door Dash with your pickle money?
Speaker 1: He's always yelling at some woman with a nose ring
Speaker 1: and bad financials. That's what I know of Caleb Hammer
Speaker 1: is always like, wait what door Dash is always involved?
Speaker 1: I got I think even he would support this though,
Speaker 1: all right, I think even he would support this idea.
Speaker 1: It's just endless sources of money versus limited sources of money.
Speaker 1: And I'm surprised Seling doesn't come along for the ride
Speaker 1: because he's the one who would take the option in
Speaker 1: the lottery of having a payment for the rest of
Speaker 1: your life, because that's nice stability.
Speaker 2: That's there's nothing wrong with them, all right.
Speaker 1: We've got a lot of people talking about Spider Man,
Speaker 1: various different things. Whatever you saw this week that stood
Speaker 1: out the most that you want to hear us talk
Speaker 1: about is fine tips at Thenews Junkie dot Commerce sent
Speaker 1: a dispatch on the website right now quick break. When
Speaker 1: we come back, we've got I still have to take that.
Speaker 1: There's one story that I have to and I gotta
Speaker 1: push down. It's interesting, but I got to push it
Speaker 1: on down so we can so we can keep some
Speaker 1: distance between it and the food that you might be eating.
Speaker 2: I will not spring that on you.
Speaker 1: Also a docu series that people are gonna be watching
Speaker 1: this week and some thoughts on that. The Nolan Wells autopsy,
Speaker 1: and when we come back, the worst weight loss plan
Speaker 1: I've ever heard in my life has just dropped. Do
Speaker 1: not attempt this at all costs. Please stay away from this.
Speaker 1: And you need to know what it's all about, because
Speaker 1: that is coming up next on the news Junkie. Now,
Speaker 1: I don't know if anybody's watched this new Netflix series,
Speaker 1: the docu series A lot of people will watch this weekend.
Speaker 1: I'm sure it's called The Idaho Murderers College Nightmare, and
Speaker 1: it's about Brian Koberger. Who is this guy who killed
Speaker 1: these three young women and this young man. They were
Speaker 1: all twenty twenty one years old, and they were in
Speaker 1: the prime of their life, living up college life, doing
Speaker 1: their thing, and they came back after being at the
Speaker 1: club all night and he pops up into their place.
Speaker 2: It's a three story place.
Speaker 1: They were all sharing a party house, and he goes
Speaker 1: systematically from room to room and he kills four people. Now,
Speaker 1: the word is that Brian Koberger committed this these murders
Speaker 1: because he was really introduced in like criminal psychology. He
Speaker 1: was really interested in criminal psychology. He was taking a
Speaker 1: college course on it at that time. He was a psychopath,
Speaker 1: was writing online about how he had no feelings and
Speaker 1: he sort of wanted to be infamous like these people
Speaker 1: he was obsessing over who were serial killers, So he
Speaker 1: killed these four people. Here's the question I have, right
Speaker 1: now that I've got that whole setup out of the way,
Speaker 1: one of the stories that I saw made me think
Speaker 1: there's more to all of this. An expert examined his
Speaker 1: phone and his hard drive and they found that after
Speaker 1: Brian Coberger committed these murders at four to twenty am,
Speaker 1: remember this, four to twenty in the morning, he commits
Speaker 1: these murders, he calls his mother at six seventeen AM
Speaker 1: and talks for thirty six minutes on the phone. Then
Speaker 1: he calls his mother again at eight am, and then
Speaker 1: he calls his mother later on that afternoon at five
Speaker 1: point fifty three pm. In total, he spent more than
Speaker 1: three hours on the phone with his mother that day.
Speaker 1: Knowing just that tidbit, isn't it kind of obvious that,
Speaker 1: like he was confessing to his mother and his parents
Speaker 1: what he had done afterwards, But like, who calls your
Speaker 1: mom at six what six thirteen, six seventeen in the morning,
Speaker 1: that's abnormal behavior. Talking to your mother for an hour
Speaker 1: and three hours in a day like that. There's no
Speaker 1: way that the parents weren't informed about what he was
Speaker 1: doing after that. I know, Cilan, you talk to your
Speaker 1: mom quite often. You're not spending it three hours on
Speaker 1: the phone with him, all run out of stuff to
Speaker 1: talk about very quickly. Unless you were talking about a murder,
Speaker 1: you just committed then even if right like somebody said,
Speaker 1: my husband is always on the phone, or I forgot
Speaker 1: what they said, someone like that a family member is
Speaker 1: always on the phone with their mother, and that their
Speaker 1: husband spends like an hour and a half every day
Speaker 1: on the phone with their mother, Like that's bizarre, that's
Speaker 1: that's not a normal thing to be talking to your
Speaker 1: parent when you're a grown adult for that long per day.
Speaker 1: That says to me, Like so many of these other situations,
Speaker 1: the child confessed to the parents and the parents were
Speaker 1: involved in the cover up. There are other examples of
Speaker 1: this happening. Remember the Gabby Patitos. Then, yeah, Gabby Patito
Speaker 1: goes missing. Brian Laundry killed her with his bare hands
Speaker 1: and then threw her body out, and then went back
Speaker 1: and confessed to his parents, and his parents tried to
Speaker 1: cover up for him. His parents tried to keep him
Speaker 1: safe in the house. His parents, you know, in some
Speaker 1: way were aware of what he had done and actively
Speaker 1: involved in helping him in ways to avoid any kind
Speaker 1: of punishment for this what was if you could find
Speaker 1: this real quick, there was just a case where they
Speaker 1: sentence a parent where their child committed I think maybe
Speaker 1: a school shooting too, Like the parents are getting involved
Speaker 1: in these things or afterwards the people are calling and
Speaker 1: telling their parents the story as I recall it, that
Speaker 1: the father just got sentenced for the mother got sentenced
Speaker 1: for I'm not sure which one.
Speaker 3: Father Colin Gray, the father of Georgia school shooter, sentenced
Speaker 3: to fifteen years in prison.
Speaker 1: Okay, And from what I heard, there was jailhouse phone
Speaker 1: calls where the mom was talking in the sunset after
Speaker 1: the school shooting. He said, have you set up a
Speaker 1: shrine for me at the house yet? And they were
Speaker 1: like they were talking about and like laughing about the
Speaker 1: school shooting that had taken place. The parents like how
Speaker 1: crazy is are getting involved in the cover up of this?
Speaker 1: And so I asked you.
Speaker 2: Have you a question.
Speaker 1: I know we've talked about this previous on the show
Speaker 1: at some point in time, but if your kid came
Speaker 1: to you it's sick something in the morning, and your
Speaker 1: kid goes, I just killed a couple of people, is
Speaker 1: your instinct going to be Okay, that's already done. Nothing
Speaker 1: I can do about it. Let me try to help
Speaker 1: them and let me try to keep them out of
Speaker 1: prison for the rest of their life. Or is your
Speaker 1: instinct you have done a terribly the wrong thing. You
Speaker 1: have committed a crime, You have murdered these people, and
Speaker 1: you need to go turn yourself in right now. Because
Speaker 1: that those are very different options. Like if Dylan called
Speaker 1: me and was like, I just murdered four people, I
Speaker 1: would be like, you need to turn yourself into the police.
Speaker 1: I'm sorry. I just think that's what the that's the
Speaker 1: right thing morally to do in that moment. But these people,
Speaker 1: these parents aren't doing this, and it seems really clear,
Speaker 1: like there's no way you talked just a couple hours
Speaker 1: after you massacred for people with your mother and you're
Speaker 1: not discussing that. It's no way, no way. You don't
Speaker 1: call your mom at six something in the morning. Nobody
Speaker 1: does that. And if you do, your talking her for
Speaker 1: thirty six minutes, you have three hours of phone conversations
Speaker 1: over the course of that day. It's very very strange behavior,
Speaker 1: Cosidia says, depends on what kid over on. Chad Angie says,
Speaker 1: I'm calling the police like I wouldn't want to. I
Speaker 1: wouldn't want to deser blood. You know, this is your child.
Speaker 1: I wouldn't want to turn my child in. But when
Speaker 1: you start getting involved in it, you're now a criminal too.
Speaker 1: And the parents should be arrested and the parents should
Speaker 1: be roped into this and the father got how long
Speaker 1: did you say, twelve years or something? Fifteen fifteen years? Yeah,
Speaker 1: I mean I think they should. I can't imagine. I
Speaker 1: don't want to put that on you see them, But
Speaker 1: if you could have, like down the road, if Jackson
Speaker 1: calls you and it's like I just killed some people,
Speaker 1: there's only two choices. You help them cover it up
Speaker 1: or you turn them in. I'm not helping them cover
Speaker 1: it up. You help Jackson bury body? No, Yeah, Jackson's
Speaker 1: going to demand it. He's going to demand it. Like,
Speaker 1: but some parents are actually doing this and that is
Speaker 1: just razy to me. And they'll pitch it as if
Speaker 1: they're doing something because they love their kid. They're like,
Speaker 1: this is my son and he called me in a
Speaker 1: time of need, and you know, through good or bad,
Speaker 1: I need to stand up for this person. And if
Speaker 1: my wife tried to help Jackson cover it up or
Speaker 1: even entertain the idea of not calling the police. I
Speaker 1: would say, I want you to think very clearly about
Speaker 1: every time young Jackson picked up that effing ballpit and
Speaker 1: dumped every single ball all over the floor for us
Speaker 1: to pick up that you call nine to one one
Speaker 1: right now.
Speaker 2: Time to turn them in.
Speaker 5: Man.
Speaker 1: I hate to say it, but that's that's the right
Speaker 1: thing as far as I can tell to do in
Speaker 1: that moment. But it's not always the case that that's
Speaker 1: what people are doing. Let us know what you would
Speaker 1: do and h or maybe you've even had to make
Speaker 1: some tough decisions like this. Go over to the website,
Speaker 1: record your reaction as what we call a dispatch that
Speaker 1: at the Newsjunkie dot com, or email if you want
Speaker 1: to be anonymous, put that right up on top to
Speaker 1: your email, which is tips tips at the Newsjunkie dot Com.
Speaker 1: E Freshrock says, well, who did they kill? I mean
Speaker 1: that that that does matter. I'm not gonna say it doesn't. Yeah,
Speaker 1: Like if there was somebody who was torturing my son
Speaker 1: for his whole life and it was a monster and
Speaker 1: who I hated, and he's like I finally snapped and
Speaker 1: killed him, that would be different. That would be far
Speaker 1: different than if he came to me and said I
Speaker 1: murdered four random people because I wanted to get the
Speaker 1: thrill of it. And I'd be like, no, you're a monster.
Speaker 1: You have to go to jail. And sometimes the kids
Speaker 1: would be like, then you would help him cover it up.
Speaker 1: I would not help him cover it up. No, but
Speaker 1: I would not call the police in that case. If
Speaker 1: it was like if it was if there was a
Speaker 1: reason and a motivation that made sense to me. But
Speaker 1: if it was random and it was it was like that,
Speaker 1: or if it was like the bra the Brian laundry
Speaker 1: thing where he says, I've just got in a fight
Speaker 1: with her and I choked her out and I killed
Speaker 1: her on a I don't care. That's the That person
Speaker 1: didn't have that coming. It would have to be something
Speaker 1: where I could convince myself like, yeah, this person deserved
Speaker 1: whatever the outcome was. Okay. They also, uh, stay away
Speaker 1: from this. I cannot believe that anybody's doing this. In fact,
Speaker 1: I hope they're not. But this is a story here
Speaker 1: that's popping up and getting some getting some attention.
Speaker 2: This is from.
Speaker 1: Foxaight dot com and they're convinced this is real let's
Speaker 1: see if you think it is. They say, an outbreak
Speaker 1: of disease causing parasite cyclospora has infected thousands of Americans
Speaker 1: from coast to coast, and it also has given rise
Speaker 1: to a dangerous new trend that people are calling cyclospora skinny. Okay,
Speaker 1: there's no shot, right. Dr a pediatric physician and internal
Speaker 1: medicine doctor was talking about this trend. This is a
Speaker 1: concerning trend. We've been talking about cyclospora for weeks. It's
Speaker 1: a problematic bug that can cause persistent diarrhea, abdominal cramping,
Speaker 1: and feeling very uncomfortable.
Speaker 2: It's not something you would want.
Speaker 1: It appears that some social media influencers are talking about
Speaker 1: losing weight by getting cyclospora on purpose so they can
Speaker 1: drop pounds quicker. The doc says it's not a good
Speaker 1: way to burn weight and will make people feel worse.
Speaker 1: Getting ill from cyclospora is not burning fat. It's your
Speaker 1: body and a stress state, Losing fluid, electrolytes protein all
Speaker 1: in a way that's going to make you even sicker.
Speaker 1: Most of the weight loss comes from dehydration. The idea
Speaker 1: that they have to talk about this seriously is like
Speaker 1: anybody somebody out there is like, I will I would
Speaker 1: like to get some cyclospora.
Speaker 3: Remember when they had to tell everybody not to eat
Speaker 3: tide pods. Yeah, this is to tell people not to
Speaker 3: eat tide pods. You think that this is crazy that
Speaker 3: they have to tell people that, Like, hey, I know
Speaker 3: you've heard on TV that people are getting so sick
Speaker 3: from clospora that they're losing a bunch of weight.
Speaker 1: That's that's not an invitation to go.
Speaker 3: Hey, remember if we just throw a couple of salads
Speaker 3: down and cross our fingers, we'll get the old the
Speaker 3: Pooh diet.
Speaker 1: Well, people did this. I know it was a joke
Speaker 1: in the office, but people didn't people do this with
Speaker 1: the worms. Oh, Kelly had a tapeworm. Tapeworms people, People
Speaker 1: would swallow a tapeworm. They would swallow a tapeworm, and
Speaker 1: the tapeworm would like eat the food and eat.
Speaker 2: There's some kind of date lost planet.
Speaker 1: I know people at least talked about doing that, but
Speaker 1: that this is stupid. Nobody should be doing this. I
Speaker 1: hope nobody is doing this. By the way, say.
Speaker 3: If you're avoiding lettuce and trying not to get sick
Speaker 3: from cyclospora, the other new worry right now is there's
Speaker 3: a frozen berry, blueberry or mixed berry recall for E.
Speaker 3: Coli in like a handful of states Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Kentucky,
Speaker 3: North Carolina, South Carolina, Tennessee, and Virginia. There's a bunch
Speaker 3: of Public's frozen berries that they're saying, don't do it.
Speaker 1: Yeah it's Greenwise, right, yes, yeah, green Wise Public is there.
Speaker 2: They're like in house brand.
Speaker 3: It's the well, it's the organic I think brand that
Speaker 3: all the green Wise stuff is organic, so I I
Speaker 3: would have no, uh no concern for buying it because
Speaker 3: I don't buy organic stuff. But yeah, the whole blueberries
Speaker 3: ten ounce for forty eight ounce, and then whole mixed
Speaker 3: berries ten outs for forty eight ounce.
Speaker 1: The frozen ones, those are not so good. I mean,
Speaker 1: I know that there's things like this that happen, and
Speaker 1: this sounds crazy, but I remember reading a couple of
Speaker 1: articles back in the day about people who that consider
Speaker 1: themselves bug chasers.
Speaker 2: And have a blueberry salad right now, just blueberries and lettuce.
Speaker 1: I know it was heavily tied to AIDS, but Josh,
Speaker 1: see if there's a wiki on bug chasers is there.
Speaker 1: They are big enough that they got as many, right,
Speaker 1: I remember that at that time there were people, so yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: they should have one. Yeah.
Speaker 6: Bug chasing on Wikipedia is the practice of intentionally seeking
Speaker 6: human immuno deficiency virus infection through sexual activity.
Speaker 1: Right, Like they would try to get it on purpose
Speaker 1: for does it say what the reasons were?
Speaker 2: Like maybe they wanted to I wanted.
Speaker 3: To have a benefit concert with Elton John. I don't
Speaker 3: know what the motivation is, ready to stuff.
Speaker 6: It was the sexual excitement at potentially doing something so dangerous,
Speaker 6: the shared sense of community with not just sure but
Speaker 6: HIV positive people had suicidality.
Speaker 1: Really so some people were just like, this is how
Speaker 1: I'm going to take myself out. That's so crazy. So
Speaker 1: people will infect themselves with this stuff. There are people
Speaker 1: who will do that, but do not try to get psychlospora.
Speaker 1: There's a lot of better ideas out there. Just get
Speaker 1: the JAB or something for God's sake, All right, quick break,
Speaker 1: when we come back. We got the hot sheet on
Speaker 1: the way. We have a global exclusive interview Unbelievable that
Speaker 1: is incoming on the show. We'll see what you think
Speaker 1: about that when it goes down, and a whole lot
Speaker 1: more on the way, and it's coming up next on
Speaker 1: the News Junkie. All right, before we get to the
Speaker 1: Hot Sheet, just to follow up on what I was
Speaker 1: talking about. I do find this so crazy, and it
Speaker 1: was interesting to have this case this week where the
Speaker 1: parent of this kid who committed a mass shooting incident
Speaker 1: was like kind of helping them out and was assisting
Speaker 1: that the person ended up getting twelve years. And I
Speaker 1: just see more and more of these things where the
Speaker 1: kids will do something horrible and then reach out to
Speaker 1: the parents, and the parents' instinct isn't always make some
Speaker 1: sense out of this. Their instinct isn't always like, Okay,
Speaker 1: you got to go to the police. Sometimes it is.
Speaker 1: Sometimes it is like the guy who shot and killed
Speaker 1: Charlie Kirk when he when his parents figured out that
Speaker 1: he was the shooter and they're like, oh, we know
Speaker 1: what's going on here. They said, you need to call
Speaker 1: the cops right now, and he did it. They turned
Speaker 1: him in, you know, they like they were pardon parcels
Speaker 1: of turning him in. The Brian laundry case, the parents
Speaker 1: were never charged, they didn't ever like face any charges.
Speaker 2: But to me, it.
Speaker 1: Really looked like they were doing their best to like
Speaker 1: assist their son instead of worrying about the person that
Speaker 1: he that he killed. But as I recall, I think
Speaker 1: he called I think he called them, was like, hey,
Speaker 1: Gabby's dead, and they lawyered up, they bought it, they
Speaker 1: got an attorney, they stopped talking to Gabby Patito's family.
Speaker 2: Like they they rallied around and.
Speaker 1: Sort of circled the wagon, as they said in the
Speaker 1: Bryant laundry case. Though, I think it was kind of
Speaker 1: known in real time, that is, he either snuck out
Speaker 1: of his mother's house or his mother may have helped
Speaker 1: him in some way, Like we kind of knew as
Speaker 1: it was happening before we found the body, before you know,
Speaker 1: all the questions were answered that the parents we kind
Speaker 1: of knew something. We didn't know anything about these phone
Speaker 1: calls from Coburger.
Speaker 12: No.
Speaker 1: I hadn't heard of that, that wasn't reported on No.
Speaker 1: And who knows what they talked about. It's very possible
Speaker 1: that Brian Coberger's family called and they had an innocuous conversation,
Speaker 1: but that doesn't seem likely to me. Three hours on
Speaker 1: the phone, six am, right two hours after you do
Speaker 1: these things when somebody reaches out in those moments, it
Speaker 1: seems to me they're desperate and they're asking their family
Speaker 1: if they'll support them even though they've done something bad.
Speaker 1: And you know, that's what I see in that situation.
Speaker 1: Coburger's family has not been charged with anything as far
Speaker 1: as I know, Brian Laundry's family has not been charged
Speaker 1: with anything, but you can see what's going on there,
Speaker 1: like you could see that a call came in and
Speaker 1: the family decided to side with family. At least that's
Speaker 1: what it looks like. Here we go, let's do the
Speaker 1: hot sheets, but not like best investigatory parting on the planet.
Speaker 3: The top stories from the people on your screens and
Speaker 3: speakers are on the sheet.
Speaker 1: Whoa with Sea Lane?
Speaker 3: That's right, the top five stories of the nonsense news
Speaker 3: brought to you by that mortgage guy Don And we
Speaker 3: start with Tony Romo, who will probably have some more
Speaker 3: time on his hands to visit grandma and grandpa because
Speaker 3: CBS Sports says the former quarterback is on leave until
Speaker 3: further notice from his TV gig. The update just one
Speaker 3: week after Romo was arrested in Wisconsin after officers suspected
Speaker 3: him of driving drunk behind the wheel. The NFL season
Speaker 3: kicks off in September. It's unclear if Romo, who joined
Speaker 3: CBS as the lead analyst in twenty seventeen, will return
Speaker 3: from his leave before week one.
Speaker 1: Would that even be a leave? I mean, what does
Speaker 1: he have duties?
Speaker 3: Does he have lead analyst duties before the football games
Speaker 3: actually start.
Speaker 1: We're suspending you from all of the pre preseason stuff,
Speaker 1: whether you like or terrible.
Speaker 3: The Networking listed future Hall of Famer JJ Watt to
Speaker 3: replace the former Dallas Cowboys star in his absence. Romo
Speaker 3: refused to take a breathalyzer test, claiming he was often
Speaker 3: told by lawyers to never submit to one. He's at
Speaker 3: risk of losing his license for a year as a result.
Speaker 3: Now over to somewhere we don't go often in the
Speaker 3: hot sheet. Beautiful South Korea. All right, let's do it
Speaker 3: because move over love on the spectrum. They have a
Speaker 3: new dating show in South Korea that is kind of dark. However,
Speaker 3: grain of salt here. I do think these people deserve love.
Speaker 3: What's the twist? Who are that?
Speaker 1: Murderers or South Koreans? Cross border loves and looking.
Speaker 3: Jongs Korean, Tuth Korea and Jenny Gray Again. SPS is
Speaker 3: new reality dating show that is a very, very random pull,
Speaker 3: if anybody knows it. SBS's new reality dating show, Love
Speaker 3: Against Time, features contestants in their twenties and thirties who
Speaker 3: have received terminal diagnosis Oh my God in the past,
Speaker 3: or experience life threatening illnesses. It is drawing scrutiny over
Speaker 3: the ethics of turning such deeply personal experiences to entertainment
Speaker 3: ahead of its August premiere. That's set to premiere the
Speaker 3: series August third. Details about how the format will unfold
Speaker 3: remain under wraps, but the network has revealed one of
Speaker 3: its central mechanics. Each night, the cast members will exchange
Speaker 3: a self determined amount of their limited time with one
Speaker 3: another as a way of developing romantic connections.
Speaker 2: Wow, Soil, I'll tell you so.
Speaker 1: Recently, I saw something I've I'm only vaguely familiar with
Speaker 1: the talk show. There's a show I think they're on
Speaker 1: satellite radio that used to be Ron and Fez and
Speaker 1: they came from the Ron and Ron.
Speaker 2: Or something correct. But that's that's before my time.
Speaker 1: I don't really know that that talk radio, know those guys,
Speaker 1: but I guess the Ron guy from this talk show
Speaker 1: Ron and fest Is. He's got cancer and they think
Speaker 1: it might be terminal. And he started posting because I
Speaker 1: know some people that are that are close to him.
Speaker 1: He started posting interviews where he's had all these comedians
Speaker 1: that are friends of his come into the hospital and
Speaker 1: he's all connected to the machines and stuff and they're
Speaker 1: they're doing podcasts. Oh I saw that. It's pretty funny.
Speaker 1: And I will tell you I don't know anything about
Speaker 1: his stuff or anything, but him talking to Shane Gillis.
Speaker 1: Shane Gillis was in the hospital. This guy's dying of cancer.
Speaker 1: This Ron guy, the host, and he's talking with Shane Gillis,
Speaker 1: Shane Gilly, Ron Bennington, and you can tell Shane Gillis
Speaker 1: is like laughing along and making jokes, but he's got
Speaker 1: like tears coming out of his eyes. And it was
Speaker 1: interesting because of the like because the fact that this
Speaker 1: person might not be here much longer. And that's the
Speaker 1: element of the TV show that would be interesting too.
Speaker 1: I guess the.
Speaker 3: Show's official teasers teasers excuse me, feature cast members opening
Speaker 3: up about their experiences, some saying they've had limited opportunities
Speaker 3: to date because potential partners are reluctant to be with
Speaker 3: someone who has been seriously ill. Others describe romance as
Speaker 3: something they once considered a luxury they could not afford.
Speaker 3: The show is directed by Lee um Sol, who previously
Speaker 3: helmed fortune Teller's Love, a reality dating show that brought
Speaker 3: together gen Z, fortune Tellers, and Oracles in the search
Speaker 3: of romance.
Speaker 1: It's so specific. This guy's like, I got an idea,
Speaker 1: another one.
Speaker 3: This guy gets green lights, just like keep them coming.
Speaker 1: Fortune Teller's Love with Me, What do you got next?
Speaker 1: People are dying green light. This is like you pull
Speaker 1: the lever and then the thing spins around. It's like, okay,
Speaker 1: dating show, Fortune Teller's gen Z.
Speaker 3: Remember the episode of South Park where Stan thought that
Speaker 3: all the new music sounded like poop. I'm in there, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 3: Well they have a new like they're calling it a
Speaker 3: genre but putting in quotes that's making a splash online.
Speaker 3: I sent you a link to pull up this article, Sean,
Speaker 3: because there's a video of it.
Speaker 1: But they're calling it.
Speaker 3: Somebody on Twitter, like one one the day on this
Speaker 3: one has coined it uk pooh. It's a genre of
Speaker 3: music growing on TikTok that that this user Cashim says,
Speaker 3: I like to call it UK Pooh. The unifying themes
Speaker 3: seem to be awkward flows. These are like little rap
Speaker 3: songs that they've people post, awkward flows, blunt or barely
Speaker 3: rhyming lyrics, DIY visuals and an unmistakably British aesthetic.
Speaker 2: And why did you send this to me on your
Speaker 2: tech or text?
Speaker 1: Read? Yeah? I see it right, and it's just.
Speaker 3: A bunch of these TikTok videos with like music that
Speaker 3: just kind of sucks, but they say there's a very
Speaker 3: British charm to it.
Speaker 2: Can we try one of these?
Speaker 1: Yeah? I would, Yeah, let's do that one. Okay, this
Speaker 1: one right here, this is supposed to be UK Pooh. Yeah,
Speaker 1: keep your ears open because I don't think she'd curses.
Speaker 1: Boyes fall and listen to your eyes. This trouble if
Speaker 1: you part. I was reading by a song the Bundle Baby,
Speaker 1: I relieve been home Baby, he can save me. That's terrible,
Speaker 1: Just what Drake sounds like. It sounds like AI has
Speaker 1: tried to turn them into a music stuff.
Speaker 3: It says to make a UK Pooh video, it should
Speaker 3: screen British right away, which that one kind of does.
Speaker 3: It needs to be filmed on an iPhone, preferably outside
Speaker 3: of a corner shop or your local pub.
Speaker 1: And if you can get on a line bike or
Speaker 1: get some Nike Tech fleece in there, great.
Speaker 3: There also needs to be a microaggressive aesthetic to the
Speaker 3: whole video and the topic you're singing about has to
Speaker 3: be a little outrageous. That's what's trending in UK on
Speaker 3: TikTok right now. Also across the pond, the British, the
Speaker 3: father of British music sensation Amy Winehouse, has been ordered
Speaker 3: to pay nine hundred and fifty thousand pounds or one
Speaker 3: point twenty six million dollars to some friends of his
Speaker 3: late daughter, who he unsuccessfully sued for auctioning the singer's
Speaker 3: clothes and other items. Mitch Winehouse earlier this year lost
Speaker 3: a case in the High Court in London against two
Speaker 3: of Winehouse's friends who auctioned dozens of her clothes and
Speaker 3: other possessions years after her death. The late singer's former stylist,
Speaker 3: Naomi Perry and her friend Katriona Gourlei, denied acting dishonestly
Speaker 3: in auctioning the items they said were given or lent
Speaker 3: to them. He sued him said they were taking advantage
Speaker 3: of his daughter all that stuff, and he ends up
Speaker 3: losing in court, which is awkward, has to pay them
Speaker 3: out a million bucks. And last, but not least, I
Speaker 3: don't know if this is blue dot fever or what,
Speaker 3: but Northwest, the daughter of Kim and Kanye, has pulled
Speaker 3: the play on two of her upcoming tour dates. Had
Speaker 3: no clue she was even on a tour days before
Speaker 3: she was scheduled to hit the stage. North was set
Speaker 3: for her first performance on August fifth with rapper Molly
Speaker 3: Santana in Dallas, Texas, but according to the ticketmaster, the
Speaker 3: show was canceled and the official website promoting promoting the
Speaker 3: artist tour has apparently been scrubbed from the internet. They
Speaker 3: do have one show that's still scheduled in August twenty
Speaker 3: fifth in San Francisco, and it's still listed on the
Speaker 3: venue's website for now.
Speaker 1: Is there like a draw to see Northwest?
Speaker 5: Like? Is I mean?
Speaker 1: Is she getting play on the radio? She's been touring
Speaker 1: with her dad, so maybe some people have heard that.
Speaker 1: I don't know, clearly not enough.
Speaker 3: If you go to see Kanye and Northwest comes out,
Speaker 3: is that a bathroom song?
Speaker 1: Yeah?
Speaker 2: Yeah, for sure.
Speaker 1: Yeah, the same thing happened to me when I went
Speaker 1: to see Lil Wayne and then Lol Wayne's like Wayne, yeah,
Speaker 1: lol lol Wayne, the double Lil Wayne. Well Wayne times
Speaker 1: who comes out and he starts performing and people are like, hey,

Speaker 1: Is that still I believe some clicking over to see
Speaker 1: if he's on you Global World Exclusive interview incoming standby,
Speaker 1: that's coming up next on the News Junkie. Okay, we
Speaker 1: have so many things to try to work into the
Speaker 1: show today. Somebody earlier in the week had emailed us
Speaker 1: and they said, is this real? Somebody sent me a
Speaker 1: link and there's a guy running for office and he's
Speaker 1: got like a meme forward website and his name supposedly
Speaker 1: is Antonio Pizza.
Speaker 2: And Antonio Pizza is.
Speaker 1: Like legit running for some sort of office here, And
Speaker 1: they asked us check this out.
Speaker 2: Is this guy for real? And we looked up and like, I.
Speaker 1: Think it might be. I think this might be a
Speaker 1: real campaign. But now we have to discover is it
Speaker 1: really real? Antonio Pizza? Are you with us? Friend? I
Speaker 1: am here?
Speaker 2: How are you there?
Speaker 1: He is? Antonio Pizza himself has joined us on the show.
Speaker 1: First things first, you look young to be a politician.
Speaker 1: How old are you? I'm nineteen, nineteen years old? And
Speaker 1: why on earth at nineteen do you want to be
Speaker 1: involved in the world of politics? Is something drawn you
Speaker 1: to this?
Speaker 5: Oh?
Speaker 11: Yeah, definitely.
Speaker 12: So I've always been a leader growing up, and I've
Speaker 12: really gotten tired of you know, everyone can point out
Speaker 12: what's wrong with the world, but not a lot of
Speaker 12: people offer solutions and actually try to make a change.
Speaker 11: They just sit down, point fingers.
Speaker 1: All right, And you wanted to kind of cut through
Speaker 1: that and try to see what you could do.
Speaker 2: Is your name legit? Antonio Pizza?
Speaker 11: Yes, Antonio Constantino Pizza.
Speaker 1: That is the most Italian answer, Antonio Constantina pizza, all right,
Speaker 1: all right? And the whole thing is the pizza always delivers.
Speaker 1: And like you're rolling with the idea that this is
Speaker 1: your name and it's a on campaign, I'm gonna stick
Speaker 1: with it. In yeah, Pizza for school in fact, is
Speaker 1: you know? Is what the website is? Pizza for school
Speaker 1: dot com? So what is you're running for school board?
Speaker 1: Is that what you want to be running for?
Speaker 11: Semino County School Board?
Speaker 1: All right? And are you do you do you know
Speaker 1: some of the other people who are on this board?
Speaker 1: Do you are you familiar with what's going on? And
Speaker 1: do you know things that you want to change?
Speaker 12: Because I recently graduated from a Seminole County public school,
Speaker 12: Hagridy High School, so I know not just the effects
Speaker 12: of the policies.
Speaker 11: I lived through the effects of the policy.
Speaker 12: True, from everything, from the mental health policy they had,
Speaker 12: from the bullying, from the drug use in the bathroom,
Speaker 12: I experienced all of it. Yeah, they have drug use
Speaker 12: in the bathrooms a big concern. They actually at one
Speaker 12: school they call it the weed wall.
Speaker 1: The weed wall, all right, I mean it's just everybody
Speaker 1: smokes weed on the weed wall.
Speaker 5: Is that it?
Speaker 1: Nothing gets sean?
Speaker 2: Yeah, I knew it.
Speaker 1: Antonio Pizza be wowed and amazed by what my intellect
Speaker 1: here as I cut through the nonsense. So the weed
Speaker 1: wall is of concern to you, the kids smoking in
Speaker 1: and doing drugs and stuff in the school, bullying, and
Speaker 1: you want to be a part of your own future
Speaker 1: here by helping out. Do you think one of the
Speaker 1: problems is people who run for office tend to be
Speaker 1: like old o's and they don't know what kids actually
Speaker 1: need who are in school.
Speaker 11: Yeah.
Speaker 12: So I think what's interesting right now is in the
Speaker 12: last five years, probably since COVID, we are on a
Speaker 12: new wave of learning, new wave of education, more things
Speaker 12: online than ever, and we need a board that really
Speaker 12: represents the different ideas in the different perspective that's going
Speaker 12: on in the school system currently, not ones that took
Speaker 12: place over fifty years ago.
Speaker 1: True. Yeah, I mean things have changed drastically even since
Speaker 1: I've been in school. I'm looking at pizzafschool dot com.
Speaker 1: Can you walk us through the photo that you've chosen
Speaker 1: to represent your campaign. You appear to be in tuxedo here.
Speaker 11: Yes, that was my senior class photol.
Speaker 1: Okay, so yeah, this is the only one. Was your
Speaker 1: senior class photo. It says you got one of education
Speaker 1: Antonio Pizza, and you picked this photograph to represent you here.
Speaker 1: What has been the feedback you've seen from voters so far?
Speaker 11: It's definitely been a mixed feedback.
Speaker 12: A lot of people say, I'm young and I'm inexperience,
Speaker 12: and yes, I may be that, but I'm always willing
Speaker 12: to learn. It's actually the fact that our younger generation
Speaker 12: is more easy to learn things than the older generation.
Speaker 12: And with our school board facing a deficit of seventeen
Speaker 12: million dollars along with IEPs, especially students who have IEPs,
Speaker 12: and Simoneill County, we're suing a family with an IEP
Speaker 12: because they wanted a nurse. Twenty nine doctors said that
Speaker 12: they needed a nurse in the school, and the school
Speaker 12: board sued this family lost in state court. Now they're
Speaker 12: going to federal court and they're suing them again. As
Speaker 12: a student, I grew up with an i EP for dyslexia.
Speaker 12: That really impacts peopleuse. I feel like these are students
Speaker 12: that are already struggling enough in school, But to go
Speaker 12: after them like this and not really follow their IEP
Speaker 12: and not give them the proper accommodations, all while the
Speaker 12: school board complains about people living leaving the school system
Speaker 12: and going to voucher schools in private schools. In reality,
Speaker 12: all we need to do is support the students we
Speaker 12: have in our schools and that will bring more people in.
Speaker 1: Okay, all right, I mean that seems pretty level headed.
Speaker 1: I do the thing that I'm least surprised by Si
Speaker 1: laning on this website. You will be very unsurprised by
Speaker 1: this too. Antonio Pizza is a proud Eagle Scout. Yeah, brother,
Speaker 1: in all zero yeah, zero percent surprise that you are
Speaker 1: an Eagle Scout. But I mean that does that does
Speaker 1: prepare you? I think in many ways to get ready
Speaker 1: for something like this.
Speaker 6: Can I sorry got you off and I ask what
Speaker 6: your Eagle Scout project.
Speaker 11: Was Yeah, So I actually did an interesting agal.
Speaker 12: I was the president founder of my high school's chess club,
Speaker 12: but in my freshman nut actually I moved from Maywood,
Speaker 12: New Jersey, to Florida, and I was still part of
Speaker 12: both troops. So I actually installed five outdoor chess tables,
Speaker 12: three in Maywood, New Jersey, and then two in Florida.
Speaker 12: So I did like two states, and one of the
Speaker 12: few Eagle Scouts, I did a project that crossed that line.
Speaker 1: What was your project, Josh?
Speaker 6: I built a picnic table and resurfaced a greenhouse.
Speaker 2: Oh my god, table house table.
Speaker 1: Yes, it was a different time. All right, here's the thing.
Speaker 1: I'm just gonna come out and say it here. Antonio Pizza.
Speaker 1: Your name is Antonio Pizza. You were in the chess club,
Speaker 1: you were an Eagle Scout. When you talk about bullying,
Speaker 1: is that because you were bullied in high school?
Speaker 11: I think that was a little bit of bullying.
Speaker 12: I think, yeah, there was definitely some bullying in high school,
Speaker 12: some in middle school. I think there's a is going
Speaker 12: to be bullying. But it's what can the people above us,
Speaker 12: the administration, the teachers, what can they really do to
Speaker 12: stop the bullying. What can I do as a student
Speaker 12: stop it as well? You know, reporting and all that.
Speaker 12: And unfortunately in someone Will County, they really have four guidelines.
Speaker 12: You know, they don't have a public handbook that goes
Speaker 12: over if you do this, if you break this policy,
Speaker 12: this is the consequence. A lot of the rules and
Speaker 12: policies are left up to teacher and administrative discretion.
Speaker 11: I was talking to her.
Speaker 12: I was a town hall yesterday and a parent talked
Speaker 12: to me and they said, you know, my niece dropped
Speaker 12: out of high school because she was bullied so.
Speaker 11: Much in the bathroom.
Speaker 1: Damn.
Speaker 12: And when I went to the school, I saw someone
Speaker 12: being bullied, and I saw the admin turn away and
Speaker 12: not witnesses so that they have to write the paperwork.
Speaker 1: Really, my god. Yeah, when you talk about school and
Speaker 1: drugs and stuff, have you had any experience with drugs? Ever?
Speaker 12: My only experience was in drugs as if going into
Speaker 12: the bathroom and it being or smoke, Yeah, fog and
Speaker 12: you can just smell the drugs. Personally, I don't do drugs.
Speaker 1: You never done Maria Wow, Antonio Pizza. Never had a
Speaker 1: sip of a beer, No, never had a drag of
Speaker 1: a joint. No, no, never never popped the perk. You
Speaker 1: know he hit the Benjamin never done any of those things. No,
Speaker 1: all right, okay, I believe you have I believe Shut up, Josh.
Speaker 1: You don't know about that. You don't know about this issue.
Speaker 1: Antonio Pizza is the guy who wants to make you
Speaker 1: rethink what's going on here. He wants to save taxpayer money.
Speaker 1: That's what you say on your website. You want to
Speaker 1: phase out COVID era learning. I mean, COVID was so
Speaker 1: bad for school, and you you were in school for that,
Speaker 1: those periods of time where everything got screwy, right, Oh yeah, yeah, what.
Speaker 12: Was seeing right now? It's still pushing students through the system.
Speaker 12: If you fail a class in Semino County, you can
Speaker 12: actually drop that class mid semester and roll on the
Speaker 12: online version. And the online version does not have any
Speaker 12: guard wils to catch AI to catch any cheating. And
Speaker 12: then even more than that, if you fail a whole semester,
Speaker 12: you can do the online summer school and you can
Speaker 12: make up that whole semester in at least four weeks.
Speaker 1: Wow. In the campaign that you're in right now, Antonio Pizza,
Speaker 1: is there any like attack ads going on or is
Speaker 1: anybody like doing attack ads against anybody else.
Speaker 12: I will say that there's been a couple of my opponents'
Speaker 12: supporters who like to go onto my comments.
Speaker 1: On Facebook oh oh.
Speaker 12: And write things up telling me that I don't know
Speaker 12: what I'm talking about. But at the end of the day,
Speaker 12: I'm the one who went to the school. I experienced
Speaker 12: everything that happened.
Speaker 1: Who do we think is behind this? Who do we
Speaker 1: think is like putting these comments out there?
Speaker 11: It's definite.
Speaker 12: I've looked at that profiles. There's definitely some of their
Speaker 12: supporters and stuff, okay, and they like to cause a
Speaker 12: lot of doubt on my campaign and bring up my
Speaker 12: youth and inexperience. But in reality, I have the most
Speaker 12: experience by knowing what's going on in the school system
Speaker 12: day to day operations, compared to the school board that
Speaker 12: just sits back and watch things happen.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, I think there's something too that there's
Speaker 1: a weird thing that people do or they'll they'll attack
Speaker 1: you for your youth and inexperience, and it's like, well,
Speaker 1: what makes you more capable just because you're older, Like
Speaker 1: automatically being older does not make you more capable at
Speaker 1: a job like this, and in fact, you know, if
Speaker 1: I wanted to find somebody with the expertise about knowing
Speaker 1: how a school runs and what the problems are, I'd
Speaker 1: want somebody who is the closest to the experience of school.
Speaker 1: The problem is a lot of people your age are
Speaker 1: kind of dumb and not good at being candidates like that.
Speaker 1: But you want to do this, you have a desire
Speaker 1: to do this. Do you see yourself as being maybe
Speaker 1: a politician long term going for bigger offices.
Speaker 12: I think my focus right now is in Someoneo County
Speaker 12: and the school board on what comes out after that,
Speaker 12: because we do have a two term limit, you know,
Speaker 12: obviously in eight years and even if I decided to rerun,
Speaker 12: But right now, my top priority.
Speaker 11: Is just fixing the schools.
Speaker 12: All I've always stood out in my generation too, like
Speaker 12: I have a flip phone clone, so I'm very you know,
Speaker 12: different from my generation because that really bothered me because
Speaker 12: in Jersey we had a strict phone policy. You were
Speaker 12: not allowed to go on your phone, and then COVID
Speaker 12: happened and they started letting us go on our phones
Speaker 12: and class and stuff. And I remember walking into home
Speaker 12: room first week back, and I'm expecting for the classroom
Speaker 12: to be talking and stuff, but they're not.
Speaker 11: They're all on their part. I like to call them
Speaker 11: phone zombies.
Speaker 12: Was all they are is staring at their phone, swiping
Speaker 12: mindlessly and then on interaction with people. And you see
Speaker 12: that with higher anxiety, higher depression rate. All of this
Speaker 12: is linked to us being using our cell phones electronics
Speaker 12: so much, and we just have to be more in
Speaker 12: the moment.
Speaker 1: That's good. So you you would you would rather these
Speaker 1: phone bands stuff continue to spread around where the students
Speaker 1: aren't on their phones and allowed to be on their
Speaker 1: phones at school.
Speaker 12: Yeah, so I believe that right now we need to
Speaker 12: get a phone shot in every single classroom and attendance
Speaker 12: is taken from that phone shot, and if your phone's
Speaker 12: not in the phone shot, then you are not mentally
Speaker 12: present in class and you should be walked after.

Speaker 1: luck over there Pizza for School. I was gonna ask you,
Speaker 1: what what's your website?
Speaker 3: Because I don't know if you've experienced this, but you
Speaker 3: as a candidate. Your name, while it's quite unique, it
Speaker 3: is hard to google because when I google it, I
Speaker 3: get a lot of restaurant options.
Speaker 12: Facebook wouldn't let me create my name as Antonio Pizza.
Speaker 11: I said it was a fake name.
Speaker 12: Facebook for multiple money.

Speaker 2: I would love to do that.

Speaker 1: to shut down these mean Facebook comments and stuff, we
Speaker 1: got to Yeah.
Speaker 11: Yeah, I would say, like, my opponent is a nice lady.
Speaker 12: She is very nice, But just because you're nice doesn't
Speaker 12: mean you're a good leader.
Speaker 1: True.
Speaker 12: Yeah, yeah, Well the supporters of actually the ones that
Speaker 12: are really mean, I don't know if that's linked to her.
Speaker 12: Really yeah, but what's interesting is there was actually one
Speaker 12: of my supporters made a song.
Speaker 1: Oh really? Is it available online?

Speaker 1: school dot com. Okay, quick break. When we come back,
Speaker 1: we'll see what you think about mister Pizza and his
Speaker 1: campaign and all the other things we've been discussing on
Speaker 1: the show.
Speaker 5: Today.
Speaker 1: I've got this very disturbing story I've been pushing back
Speaker 1: a little bit, a viral clip and why this is
Speaker 1: going viral. We'll talk about that, jury duty and so
Speaker 1: much more, all coming up next on the News. Junkie.
Speaker 1: Secret shows drop every Friday at five pm. So if
Speaker 1: that's the time or past it, go get the latest
Speaker 1: uncensored secret show over on the Neewsjunkie dot Com. One
Speaker 1: thing I saw that's starting to get attention. I don't
Speaker 1: know if the young folks will start doing this or not,
Speaker 1: but this is a new thing that's starting to catch on.
Speaker 1: I've not heard this talked about anywhere else, but perhaps
Speaker 1: you have. But there are new tattoos called cipher X.
Speaker 1: I think I'm saying that right. Cipher X, cipher Rex,
Speaker 1: believe that's the name. And these are really interesting. If
Speaker 1: they did catch on, I think there's some limitations to them.
Speaker 1: But the idea is there's no pain at all. The
Speaker 1: tattoo is permanent and you can order it right to
Speaker 1: your home.
Speaker 2: And here's an example.
Speaker 1: This is from the Verge right now says this tattoo
Speaker 1: is permanent, pain free and might soon come in the mail.
Speaker 2: And they show somebody with like a.
Speaker 1: Really simple little star tattoo, and you go on to
Speaker 1: a website or that's the idea cipher X, this London
Speaker 1: based company, You order one of these tattoos. They have
Speaker 1: like stars and hearts and all sorts of different designs
Speaker 1: and stuff. And when you get it at your house,
Speaker 1: you press it against your skin and it gives you
Speaker 1: like an instant tattoo that is permanent, like a whole
Speaker 1: bunch of micro needles. How is that pain free? I
Speaker 1: don't know.
Speaker 2: They said it's pain free.
Speaker 1: Yeah, they're a little that's under like a microscope where
Speaker 1: you see them like a little pointy there.
Speaker 2: But it's this little thing that you get.
Speaker 1: It's in the design of your tattoo, and then you
Speaker 1: squish it against your skin when you get it, and
Speaker 1: then it's supposed to be pain free. And it says
Speaker 1: the process is designed to be quiet, fast, and pain free,
Speaker 1: all of which I found to be true. This is
Speaker 1: the article saying this opening the door for even more
Speaker 1: people to rock some permanent ink. Some cosmetic products already
Speaker 1: use a similar technology. Micro needle tattoo patches have been
Speaker 1: explored since at least twenty twenty two. But this is
Speaker 1: a consumer ready product, so you'll you'll actually get this
Speaker 1: thing in the mail. And then it says a flexible
Speaker 1: tattoo bandage was applied to it to make it not
Speaker 1: move around. Then there was a sticker placed over the top,
Speaker 1: and then fifteen minutes you wait till it processes, and
Speaker 1: then you're done, like press it against your skin. Right now,
Speaker 1: it's pretty simple you're looking at stars and hearts and stuff.
Speaker 1: But the ideas eventually, like let's say Josh wants a
Speaker 1: Pokemon tattoo. Sure, they make a deal with the Pokemon people.
Speaker 1: You buy the Pokemon tattoo, you bring it to your house,
Speaker 1: you put it on your skin, kind of like you
Speaker 1: would a temporary tattoo.
Speaker 3: Interesting, I wonder you get a tattoo. I wonder if
Speaker 3: the people that are really into tattoos would welcome this
Speaker 3: or shun it.
Speaker 1: What do you think, Josh stolen valor or No.
Speaker 6: It's so small, like it can't take the place of
Speaker 6: a full size tattoo yet obviously not yet. No, that's
Speaker 6: not good for hobbyists.
Speaker 1: Yeah, but it could soon because they made these pretty small.
Speaker 1: Right now, You put them on your ankle, you put
Speaker 1: them on your your waist, your hip or whatever, and
Speaker 1: you get a tiny little tattoo just like that. Maybe
Speaker 1: you maybe quickly they license out the Playboy Bunny logo,
Speaker 1: Maybe they license out some simple sports team type things,
Speaker 1: and then people can get these and press them up
Speaker 1: against their skin and you got a permanent tattoo out
Speaker 1: of it. Honestly, it'd be great for bets with your
Speaker 1: friends and and different things like that. If you personalize
Speaker 1: it too, yeah, yeah, yeah, and you'd go, all right,
Speaker 1: losers getting this and then really going to ramp up
Speaker 1: the guy who loses fantasy football, all right, Yeah, punishment
Speaker 1: right between your eyes. Just thrust that sucker round in
Speaker 1: your face. He says.
Speaker 3: You know what, that's another kind of bad news for
Speaker 3: this technology. It's like if you had your friend passed
Speaker 3: out on the couch, here's what and tattoo.
Speaker 1: It's impressing them against them all over their body. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: it can happen, somebody, says Vendosoura over on Twitch watching
Speaker 1: the show, says, this is essentially a chemical burn, right, No,
Speaker 1: I believe it's ink. It's actual It's like ink on
Speaker 1: this thing micro needles. So when you get a tattoo,
Speaker 1: as I don't need to explain this to everybody, but
Speaker 1: just for those of you who don't know, you're taking
Speaker 1: a needle that's going in and out and it goes,
Speaker 1: you know, it takes the ink and brings it in
Speaker 1: and out of your skin, giving you the tattoo. This
Speaker 1: is all of the ink and all of the correct
Speaker 1: colors already on top of the micro needles in the
Speaker 1: position of the tattoo, so it's almost like a sticker
Speaker 1: or something. You're putting it across you. But then it
Speaker 1: delivers the ink in to those exact places with the
Speaker 1: micro needles, and now your tattoo is perfectly matched up
Speaker 1: and permanent and it doesn't hurt.
Speaker 2: According to them, says Well.
Speaker 3: The website itself says minimal discomfort, longevity, permanent color, carbon black,
Speaker 3: up to one one and a half by one and
Speaker 3: a half centimeters micron scale precision. The aftercare is quite
Speaker 3: minimal and just a safe, fast and convenient application. A
Speaker 3: new form of permanent tattooing micro dot tattoo.
Speaker 1: I think people might be into this. They do the
Speaker 1: what's the hennah? They have a head of tattoos. Sometimes
Speaker 1: people do that. It's like semi permanent things, and they
Speaker 1: last a little bit longer, they said. The tattoo is
Speaker 1: revealed after the patches removed, and it becomes visibly darker
Speaker 1: over the course of two days. Initially, the tattoo consisted
Speaker 1: of lots of tiny dots rather than a smooth connected line.
Speaker 1: The ink is supposed to bleed together as it develops,
Speaker 1: like a regular tattoo does over the years, so you
Speaker 1: get this thing, and then eventually you know you've got
Speaker 1: a tattoo on you. It's very simple. Now, the designs
Speaker 1: leave a bit to be desired. I've seen a smiley face,
Speaker 1: a star, a chair, I don't know where there's a
Speaker 1: chair design. There's a line, hearts, you know, there's some
Speaker 1: pretty simple stuff that they have. And you order this
Speaker 1: and get your tattoo right in the comfort of your house.
Speaker 1: Oh there's a little ghost, right, that's a little it's
Speaker 1: a little bigger, a little more complex. Would you do this, folks?
Speaker 1: Will this take off? Is some sort of big idea? Now?
Speaker 1: I think if you could make this, like I have
Speaker 1: a lot of tattoos, if you could make this a
Speaker 1: complex tattoo, josh, where let's say it's like one of
Speaker 1: these tattoos like I have my son's initials on my forearm.
Speaker 1: If you can make it so you just take something,
Speaker 1: press it against you, wait for a couple of minutes,
Speaker 1: peel it off, and it was pain free, and now
Speaker 1: you have a tattoo of that size. I think that
Speaker 1: might be desirable to some people. Maybe not. Let us
Speaker 1: know what you think. Give us your thoughts over at
Speaker 1: thenewschunkie dot com right now, All right, we'll get into
Speaker 1: some of your dispatches, emails and all the rest. In fact,

Speaker 1: twenty or thirty minutes. We do homework almost every night
Speaker 1: outside of that to make sure our son understands the
Speaker 1: concepts that they're doing that week and the reinforcement of
Speaker 1: fundamentals throughout the school year. We start back up with
Speaker 1: the fundamentals three weeks before school and some are to
Speaker 1: be prepared for the new year. I don't want my
Speaker 1: kids to get through school. I want them to succeed
Speaker 1: and thrive. It's a joint effort for teachers and parents
Speaker 1: for education. Not all millennial moms suck like this lady,
Speaker 1: those poor kids.

Speaker 1: woman in that viral video said, it's my job as
Speaker 1: a parent to have fun with my child. It's like, no,
Speaker 1: that is not your job as a parent. That may
Speaker 1: be one of the facets of your job, one of

Speaker 1: Tips tips at the newsjunkie dot com. Our friend mode
Speaker 1: Wit is on the way in a bit sweet We
Speaker 1: got we got some questions? Ask him? Oh can I
Speaker 1: share this video? Are we far enough from anybody eating?
Speaker 1: Do you guys consent to something that's a little cross
Speaker 1: our our lunches here yet? Okay? Good? Perfect timing? All right,
Speaker 1: this is in Russia. Somebody was at a wild Berry's
Speaker 1: pickup point. For those of you who don't know, actually,
Speaker 1: wild berries factories and warehouses have been getting bombed by
Speaker 1: the Ukrainians because it's a way that they can have
Speaker 1: an impact on the Russians. Wild Berries is like Amazon
Speaker 1: in Russia. Fact check that ceiling. I think that's great,
Speaker 1: that's correct, It is okay. Wildberries, like I don't even
Speaker 1: think they have Amazon. I don't know if they even
Speaker 1: have Amazon. So their version of Amazon in Russia is
Speaker 1: called Wildberries. And this is at one of the facilities
Speaker 1: where they process returns and and whatever. I don't know
Speaker 1: why I say it like that. That kid's an absolute
Speaker 1: return and if I got a return him, they process returns.
Speaker 1: I guess I should say. And here's what happens. To
Speaker 1: brace yourself and we go. We're inside this Wildberry's location.
Speaker 1: They're going through some of the boxes. Watch this one ready,
Speaker 1: watching it taking the box apart, all right? The box explodes.
Speaker 1: Somebody had returned human feces in their equivalent of an
Speaker 1: Amazon delivery box, and as they were sitting there, as
Speaker 1: they're sitting there working on the return, it blows up
Speaker 1: and launches all over all of them inside this office.
Speaker 5: I like that sound effect.
Speaker 1: You get to leave work after that, you get to leave. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and Russia they probably make you stay at the old Wildberriers.
Speaker 1: That is not just leave work for the day sea land.
Speaker 1: That should be leave work for the rest of the year.
Speaker 1: I think you should get the rest of the year off.
Speaker 1: Why did it explode because they wanted it to They
Speaker 1: sent it back to them to get back at the company,
Speaker 1: and it flung everywhere all over these poor people. I'm
Speaker 1: not going to put this on see it now. If
Speaker 1: you want to see it that bad, you can see
Speaker 1: it on the stream because some of you might have
Speaker 1: a fetish for this. But it's absolutely gone awful, disgusting.
Speaker 6: Funny if Ukraine sent that one to.
Speaker 1: One at a time, poop bums all the different locations.
Speaker 1: Jesus no telling. All I know is in a surprise
Speaker 1: order in Russia, a box filled with feces exploded at
Speaker 1: a wild Berry's pickup points. We'll see if there's any
Speaker 1: updates on this when we come back. We got jury
Speaker 1: duty on the way, lots more emails coming in. We'll
Speaker 1: get to the of course, power hour momentarily, and a
Speaker 1: whole lot more on a Friday. That's coming up next

Speaker 1: it here. If you want stars do it right here, man,
Speaker 1: let's let's do it. Let's do this weekend for.
Speaker 10: Giving you a recap of the most grown worthy stories
Speaker 10: in the States.
Speaker 1: It's this week in Florida. That's right, the weekend it's here.
Speaker 1: This is definitely not an afterthought.
Speaker 3: It's a time to take a trip around the Sunshine
Speaker 3: State see some of the craziness that has gone on
Speaker 3: in the past seven days or so.
Speaker 1: At long Line, Antonio Pizza on the line, you talked
Speaker 1: to Antonio Pizza. All right, I got bump for pizza.
Speaker 1: It's a kind of a low point.
Speaker 3: We started Saint Pete at the beach where two men
Speaker 3: have been arrested by the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission.
Speaker 3: I did not know this was I mean, it seems illegal,
Speaker 3: but I did not know this crime was that bad.
Speaker 3: The owner of the Plaza Beach Hotel and also the
Speaker 3: owner of Chris's Beach Sidebar. All right, sounds like a
Speaker 3: nice place, except for the fact that they are accused
Speaker 3: of placing fifteen hundred mothballs on the beach for what purpose?
Speaker 1: To get the moths away?
Speaker 2: To prevent black skimmer shore birds from nesting?
Speaker 1: Oh my god, I thought that was gonna go a
Speaker 1: totally different direction for a second. What did you think
Speaker 1: it was to prevent black I thought you were talking
Speaker 1: about something to say.
Speaker 2: So to prevent what?
Speaker 5: Now?
Speaker 2: Black?
Speaker 7: Why?
Speaker 3: Black skimmer shore birds apparently nest on the beach. Never
Speaker 3: even heard of them? Me neither, But the FWC officials say,
Speaker 3: Robert c his last name is cz y szcz N.
Speaker 3: A lot of ease in that last name.
Speaker 1: Chicken John.
Speaker 3: Sure, Robert Chicken John and Christopher Monroe were trying to
Speaker 3: keep the birds from nesting on the beach behind their
Speaker 3: hotel and bar. They started off with no real leads,
Speaker 3: but through the investigative work, FWC says officers discovered that
Speaker 3: Chicken John made a large purchase of mothballs from Walmart
Speaker 3: around the date of the incident. And they then they
Speaker 3: got we're able to get search warrants for the cell
Speaker 3: phone data. But yeah, they said that, Like the headline says,
Speaker 3: toxic mothballs are mothballs just by definition toxic?
Speaker 1: Yes, you know what the weirdest thing in the world
Speaker 1: is when I was young, I remember people talking about it.
Speaker 1: But I feel like the mothballs thing is just completely
Speaker 1: worked out of American society. I've never seen a need
Speaker 1: for mothballs. Yeah, in my house there was when when
Speaker 1: our grandparents were young, they'ld be like, Oh, you're gonna
Speaker 1: put the clothes in the closet, put the moth balls
Speaker 1: in there. But you know, I think we've changed that.
Speaker 1: There smelled mothballs.
Speaker 2: It's not good.
Speaker 1: How'd you get their little legs apart? Classic good Moses.
Speaker 1: Don't laugh about Moses. A bunch of returns on this ship. Yeah,
Speaker 1: place is full of returns, all right, let's see.
Speaker 3: Sometimes, you know, sometimes you need real investigative work. Sometimes
Speaker 3: you need to do the due diligence, and sometimes they
Speaker 3: just make it easy on you. Miami Dade Sheriff's Office
Speaker 3: detectives arrested Christopher follow on Tuesday.
Speaker 1: Uh see.
Speaker 3: They took him into the police department and showed him
Speaker 3: a video of this burglary that they had him that
Speaker 3: they thought he was a suspect for.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and he told the cops, oh, yeah, I broke
Speaker 1: into the business in a while. Back looks familiar. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that's me. You got me case closed. Way to go, Christopher,
Speaker 1: She'll follow.
Speaker 3: Would that just be moses like the worst case scenario
Speaker 3: as a client for to hear that somebody said just
Speaker 3: saying like.
Speaker 1: That, I mean, yeah, sure, you basically got no defense
Speaker 1: at that point. Rule number one is don't admit to
Speaker 1: the thing you're acute about.
Speaker 13: I mean, but you know, it used to be before
Speaker 13: there's a public defender, which was not that long ago,
Speaker 13: the sheriff in many counties around here would say they
Speaker 13: go into the jail and say, all right, if you're guilty,
Speaker 13: go on the left. If you're not guilty, go on
Speaker 13: the right, and people, you know people, yeah, go on
Speaker 13: the left side.
Speaker 1: That's one percent true. That's hilarious.
Speaker 3: Well that that one's pretty much open and shut for
Speaker 3: the cops and for the prosecution there, which.
Speaker 1: And it sounded like the guy is like, oh yeah,
Speaker 1: I remember that place.
Speaker 3: It sounded like he had done so many break ins
Speaker 3: that that one like just looked a little familiar, and
Speaker 3: I think I kind of know that that one was me.
Speaker 3: So you know, we'll see what happens with him. Central
Speaker 3: Florida has seen a rise in leprosy cases, So let's
Speaker 3: stay away from the armadillos. Health officials are reassuring residents
Speaker 3: after new cases of leprosy were reported across the state,
Speaker 3: including several in Central Florida. Seventeen cases have been reported
Speaker 3: statewide so far this year. Surgeon General Joseph Ladappo addressed
Speaker 3: the increase on Friday, saying the number of cases remains
Speaker 3: low shouldn't be a major cost for concern.
Speaker 1: It's just an old skin eating disease, right, skin. Yeah,
Speaker 1: you can get it from the armadillo. I touch it.
Speaker 1: It's just touching it. Like you touch an armadillo and
Speaker 1: you touch your face and you got you.
Speaker 3: So, it says one reason central for to see cases
Speaker 3: as the presence of the nine banded armadillo, which carries
Speaker 3: the bacteria that causes leprosy. Experts emphasize that simply seeing
Speaker 3: or being near an armadillo does not mean someone will
Speaker 3: become infected. It's not spread through casual contact. Also known
Speaker 3: as Hanson's disease. Infection typically requires prolonged exposure to the
Speaker 3: bacteria through contact with infected armadillo. So you're just sitting
Speaker 3: there petting your armadillo a lot, and then you get
Speaker 3: the leprosy.
Speaker 13: Oh, this might be bad for that Armadillo world that's
Speaker 13: opening on eyes try.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it could be set up for failure.
Speaker 3: Man, if you bought a Mega Million's ticket in Florida

Speaker 3: a jackpot of eight hundred million dollars. Gas is expensive
Speaker 3: these days, but that wasn't a big worry for u.
Speaker 3: Sneel Lara, forty years old. He was caught in a
Speaker 3: circle K fuel stealing scheme. The Deltona man was arrested
Speaker 3: after he was caught stealing diesel from circle K gas
Speaker 3: stations across the area. I think they found him with
Speaker 3: like a giant tank and a magnet or something.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, yeah, that's one of the indicators that somebody's
Speaker 1: trying to steal gas like that.
Speaker 3: Surveillance video from the stations reportedly showed the same suspect
Speaker 3: vehicle each time, a White Ram twenty five hundred pickup.
Speaker 3: Similar diesel thefts were reported in Sandford and Okalla.
Speaker 1: It's not saying anything about the magnet. Oh yes.
Speaker 3: Detectives say they found a large magnet on the driver's seat,
Speaker 3: an item commonly used in diesel theft for pumps. In
Speaker 3: the truck bed, they saw a large auxiliary fuel tank
Speaker 3: with the cap open but not yet filled. It's estimated
Speaker 3: he stole three hundred gass of diesel and laugh at
Speaker 3: least a Jupiter Man was jailed Thursday after allegedly breaking
Speaker 3: into a neighbor's home to slice a lime and drink
Speaker 3: her tequila with a towel on his head. According to
Speaker 3: the police department, the victim woke up around six thirty
Speaker 3: am to her dog's barking.
Speaker 1: It was not me. I would never do the towel part. Yeah.
Speaker 1: Just if I had to pick somebody that I knew
Speaker 1: that did this.
Speaker 3: It would be you that did that. Oh, you don't
Speaker 3: think Josh drinks tequila.
Speaker 1: I don't think he would have put the towel. Sad. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I don't know. I can see sea light doing this.
Speaker 3: She grabbed a firearm walk downstairs, where she confronted an
Speaker 3: uninvited guest, thirty year old Jeffrey Bartamus, headed towards her
Speaker 3: back door. Bartamus apologized and quickly jumped her back fence
Speaker 3: with a towel wrapped around his head. He lives just
Speaker 3: down the street. He tried opening the victim's front door
Speaker 3: moments earlier while holding a six pack of beer, so
Speaker 3: he brought his own beer, but he drank her tequila.
Speaker 3: At please Say, he helped himself to her s Fedka
Speaker 3: vodka and Malagro tequila, leaving open bottles, a cut lime,
Speaker 3: and a knife on the encounter and leaving with the towel.
Speaker 2: That's it for this week in Florida.
Speaker 1: Thank you, Cilea, And Zephys says, what's the magnet for?
Speaker 1: I don't know. They use like a big strong magnet
Speaker 1: to somehow get into.
Speaker 2: The area where they have this digel fuel.
Speaker 3: If I had to guess, the magnet might interrupt the
Speaker 3: mechanism that turns inside the machine that measures how much
Speaker 3: diesel you're pumping out. Oh like, I know nothing about
Speaker 3: why the magnet works. That is just a very educated
Speaker 3: guess on why a magnet might help you out in
Speaker 3: some sort of situation for that.
Speaker 1: Okay, that makes sense, all right. We're gonna take a
Speaker 1: quick break when we.
Speaker 3: Come back now and pat myself on the back when
Speaker 3: I figure out that I'm right. And if you don't,

Speaker 1: We're gonna work it all into this Power Hour, and
Speaker 1: that's coming up next on the News Chunkie. The folks
Speaker 1: in the chat room are trying to guess what Moses
Speaker 1: and I are talking about during the break. You will
Speaker 1: never ever know, all right. They're pretending like they can
Speaker 1: read lips. They're pretending like they actually know what's happening.
Speaker 1: You're not gonna know. But if you have a question
Speaker 1: for Moses to wit our friend from just callmo dot com.
Speaker 1: You can call you have anything you've been Oh, you
Speaker 1: know what I was thinking about asking an attorney that
Speaker 1: Moses is here. So triple eight four four three News
Speaker 1: is the number, Triple eight four four three news and
Speaker 1: you get piped into the studio and if you have
Speaker 1: any questions for Moses, now's the time to do that.
Speaker 1: We'll get to hard questions for him as well. But
Speaker 1: I wanted to share a story with you guys real quick.
Speaker 1: It was pretty crazy about Netflix. So apparently there's a
Speaker 1: company that is suing Netflix for one hundred and five
Speaker 1: million dollars. Anybody see this?
Speaker 2: Did you guys see this story at all?
Speaker 3: I know, I feel like I saw something about it,
Speaker 3: but I wasn't totally.
Speaker 1: I'm sure why so Ceilan This company is suing Netflix
Speaker 1: for one hundred and five million dollars because they were
Speaker 1: shopping around an unreleased Nicholas Cage movie. Yeah, Nicholas Cage
Speaker 1: spy thriller, and they were trying to get somebody to
Speaker 1: purchase this from him.
Speaker 2: This is how it works.
Speaker 1: You film a movie, put the whole movie together with
Speaker 1: everybody involved, and then you bring it to somebody to
Speaker 1: sell it. This is what they just did with Obsession
Speaker 1: for instance. Yes, you know, they made the movie about
Speaker 1: eight hundred thousand dollars for Obsession. Then they sold it
Speaker 1: to a distributor, and then the distributor puts it out
Speaker 1: everywhere and they make a boatload of money off of it. Well,
Speaker 1: this is the company before the sale. And they make
Speaker 1: a spy thriller with Nicholas Cage and they bring it
Speaker 1: to Netflix and they say, would you like to buy this?
Speaker 1: We don't think about these things. But they literally go
Speaker 1: over to Netflix with a flash drive, a little flash
Speaker 1: hard drive, and they say, watch this, let us know
Speaker 1: if you're interested. There's somebody who was working at Netflix
Speaker 1: and their job is specifically to watch all these new
Speaker 1: unreleased movies. How cool would that be and then see
Speaker 1: if Netflix should invest in them?
Speaker 2: And that person was robbed.
Speaker 1: So someone broke into Netflix's HQ and stole all of
Speaker 1: the flash drives off this person's desk, all of these
Speaker 1: unreleased movies. The company is now saying, hey, that movie
Speaker 1: is now out there, possibly and you could just leak
Speaker 1: that or somebody whoever has it could leak it, and
Speaker 1: then now our movie's not worth any money because we
Speaker 1: go to another streamer or Hulu or whoever, we would
Speaker 1: try to sell this to somebody and they say, no,
Speaker 1: we're not going to give you anything for that. Somebody's
Speaker 1: got an illicit copy of this, and now they're suing
Speaker 1: Netflix for one hundred and five million dollars for losing
Speaker 1: their Nick Cage movie.
Speaker 2: And I'd never thought.
Speaker 1: About that, but the quote was somebody stole a good
Speaker 1: amount of drives from our office desks this past week.
Speaker 1: Moses just from like from a law perspective, is it
Speaker 1: Netflix's fault? Where should they have like been in make
Speaker 1: made sure the security of these movies was of a
Speaker 1: certain level that wouldn't get stolen. Is there any liability
Speaker 1: for them?
Speaker 13: I mean there could be obvious it's going to be
Speaker 13: fact specific. But if they were negligent and you know,
Speaker 13: having proper security protocols, you know, protecting this data essentially,
Speaker 13: then yeah, sure they could be liable for it.
Speaker 1: That's crazy. I mean that movie Obviously, a Nick Cage
Speaker 1: movie can can make a lot of money, unless it's
Speaker 1: the one where he was a professor that everybody started
Speaker 1: dreaming about.
Speaker 2: I don't think that one made as much. That's pretty
Speaker 2: funny though.
Speaker 1: Oh God that there were some scenes in that one, Josh,
Speaker 1: there were some scenes. I don't know. When I saw
Speaker 1: that one. It was weird because Nick Cage was playing
Speaker 1: like an older professor, and then everybody in the world
Speaker 1: became obsessed with him because everybody in the world was
Speaker 1: having a shared dream of him of the professor dream scenario.
Speaker 1: Dream scenario is the name of the Nick Cage movie.
Speaker 1: And he became the most famous person in the world
Speaker 1: and women were falling in love with him and stuff.
Speaker 2: But he was like a gross old professor.
Speaker 1: So the women were falling in love with him, and
Speaker 1: they were showing these scenes of him hooking up with them. Oh,
Speaker 1: it's just some weird stuff going down there. Okay, we
Speaker 1: have a lot of emails, We have a lot of
Speaker 1: various things coming in. And again, if you have any
Speaker 1: legal questions and you want to ask Moses, you could
Speaker 1: call eight eight eight triple eight four four to three
Speaker 1: News Sea Line. What do we have on the list
Speaker 1: for Moses to win? Let me get a second to
Speaker 1: pull that up. I know one that I could bring up, Mo,
Speaker 1: did you watch the Tony Romo footage? I have all right,
Speaker 1: the Tony Romo body cam. What what did you think?
Speaker 1: Because I thought afterwards, I said, if I was a
Speaker 1: dui attorney, I probably would tell him you might have
Speaker 1: a decent little case on your hands here. But what
Speaker 1: were your thoughts? Did you think this looked good for
Speaker 1: him or bad? I mean, I don't think it looks terrible.
Speaker 13: I think he does kind of give maybe not the
Speaker 13: best answer when they asked how much he had to drink.
Speaker 13: I think if he directly answers or kind of implies
Speaker 13: that he has some drinks. But other than that, it
Speaker 13: doesn't look to me, it doesn't look horrible. I've had
Speaker 13: other people say, excuse me. I've heard other people say
Speaker 13: that they thought he looked terrible and looked severely intoxicated.
Speaker 13: But compared to some of the Dui Dui videos I've seen,
Speaker 13: I didn't think it was that bad.
Speaker 1: So I have it here. One of the things that
Speaker 1: I noticed, Moses, is the cops go up to is
Speaker 1: how his car.
Speaker 3: You're coming from a golf course, ultra Scott's to.
Speaker 7: Stay after all?
Speaker 1: Right, So the officer says, how many drinks have you
Speaker 1: had and he goes, excuse me, none, and then he
Speaker 1: says eventually when they say where are you headed, and
Speaker 1: he said, up going to my grandpa's house, grandpa grandma's house.
Speaker 1: Turns out his grandparents are dead. Well, they were like
Speaker 1: his grandparents. Does that would that ever wiggle its way
Speaker 1: into this story? Could they use that to be like,
Speaker 1: you are being dishonest during this stop?
Speaker 13: Not necessarily, they could try to use it to say
Speaker 13: that he was so intoxicated that he didn't know where
Speaker 13: he was going or didn't realize his grandparents were dead,
Speaker 13: or something like that. But otherwise, I think it's unlikely
Speaker 13: that he gets a charge for like, you know, lying
Speaker 13: to law enforcement during an investigation or something like.
Speaker 1: That, because they don't have the breathalyzer, they don't have
Speaker 1: a blood test, right, they only have him performing these tests,
Speaker 1: and he's not flurring his words or anything.
Speaker 2: That's why I thought this looked better for him than
Speaker 2: it might be.
Speaker 13: Yeah, I mean, if he didn't do the field sobriety exercise,
Speaker 13: it would probably be even better, which is why I
Speaker 13: always tell people don't do the field sobriety exercises.
Speaker 1: But now, of course, here in Florida.
Speaker 13: You do have to blow into the breath liser because
Speaker 13: it is an additional crime to not blow into the
Speaker 13: breath lives, which I think that's going to be challenged
Speaker 13: at some point, but that is the law right now.
Speaker 13: But the field sobriety exercise is literally they're just trying
Speaker 13: to gather more evidence to support their case. First of all,
Speaker 13: let me say, don't drink and drive. But you know
Speaker 13: they're trying to gather more evidence to build their case.
Speaker 13: You're not required to do it. And frankly, I have
Speaker 13: never seen anybody do the field sobriety exercises and then
Speaker 13: be released, So it's not helping your case. They try
Speaker 13: to make an interest. Oh if you do this like
Speaker 13: and you pass, we're gonna let you go. I've never
Speaker 13: seen that happen. I've just never seen it happen.
Speaker 1: I have done is like three times. I think.
Speaker 3: Circle of Friends his ability to pass the field sobriety
Speaker 3: test not necessarily that one triple eight. I kind of
Speaker 3: a little bit chaos calls us chaos. You got a
Speaker 3: question from now?
Speaker 14: Yeah, No, how's it going?
Speaker 5: Uh?
Speaker 14: Local bird? I had a questions as far as the
Speaker 14: term allegedly so you see online a lot of the
Speaker 14: time where people will be.
Speaker 1: Like, well, allegedly allegedly, and they.
Speaker 14: Try to cover themselves. Is there any actual protection in
Speaker 14: saying allegedly when you are de fading somebody online.
Speaker 13: Well, yes, and no, right allegedly doesn't just get you
Speaker 13: out of everything. I can't go and say, you know,
Speaker 13: Sean's a pedophile allegedly without having any.
Speaker 2: Sort of proof you did.
Speaker 1: Well, you know, this is all within the confines. It's
Speaker 1: a hell of an example. You could have used anybody
Speaker 1: else's name right there, or any other crime, thank you, Josh,
Speaker 1: murder would have been preferred.
Speaker 13: Well, you look at Sean. This is just the thing
Speaker 13: that pops in your head. But you know, and I
Speaker 13: think there was a recent.
Speaker 1: Example, sorry that the caller is feeling awkward now this
Speaker 1: weird sandwich. Yes, allegedly feeling awkward, but no, I think
Speaker 1: there was a recent case where somebody went on TikTok
Speaker 1: and they were doing that exact thing where they were
Speaker 1: saying allegedly, but they're making all these horrible accusations about
Speaker 1: these people, and they finally sue them for defamation and
Speaker 1: slander and all sorts of stuff, and the person's defense
Speaker 1: was well, I said allegedly.
Speaker 13: It's no, you can't just say that. That's not a
Speaker 13: catch all. They gets you out of it. What that
Speaker 13: does is if there is you know, a certain level
Speaker 13: of facts. Basically, there's some facts to support what you're saying,
Speaker 13: but there's no formal proof. You can say allegedly because
Speaker 13: they've been accused of it at this pot point. But okay,
Speaker 13: it hasn't been formally proven.
Speaker 1: So if somebody's accused of something, then you can weave
Speaker 1: that in.
Speaker 2: But you can't.
Speaker 1: It's not a work around, right.
Speaker 13: There still has to be something stated in fact to
Speaker 13: support what you're saying.
Speaker 1: Okay, it makes sense our thank you, Chaos, appreciate the call.
Speaker 1: There he goes one Triple eight four four to three News.
Speaker 1: If you have any questions for Moses. It's actually kind
Speaker 1: of important in a world where people are spouting off
Speaker 1: at each other on social media NonStop. They're saying all
Speaker 1: sorts of things about people, and more people are starting
Speaker 1: to sue over these of comments, and I think there's
Speaker 1: gonna be more cases like this.
Speaker 3: Roll see what do we have on the list for Moses.
Speaker 3: We had a couple of stories in the last couple
Speaker 3: of weeks, maybe even longer.
Speaker 1: But there were.
Speaker 3: Two like distinct stories about criminals like who have served
Speaker 3: time being released from jail or released from prison on
Speaker 3: some sort of probationary status that have to give an
Speaker 3: address where they live. And I guess there's a couple
Speaker 3: areas where the cops are just like, listen, if you
Speaker 3: don't have an address, just use this address, or they
Speaker 3: find an address. One of them was like a corner
Speaker 3: store and a bunch of pedophiles, just like allegedly Sean
Speaker 3: said they lived at this corner store.
Speaker 1: This is not gonna be a thing.
Speaker 2: It was a corner store, and then it was a
Speaker 2: strip mall.
Speaker 3: To yes, And the question that I wrote down says,
Speaker 3: does the owner of this shopping center have a case
Speaker 3: against law enforcement for approving release inmates and making them
Speaker 3: reside in the parking lot for twelve hours a day
Speaker 3: as part of their like terms of release.
Speaker 13: Well, they'd have to show that they were damaged somehow.
Speaker 13: I don't know what the specific situation is and how
Speaker 13: they would be damaged. And they'd have to show also
Speaker 13: that hey, they didn't cooperate with this, and then you know,
Speaker 13: be somehow the police were were doing this. It wasn't
Speaker 13: just like you know, one guy started using and told
Speaker 13: his buddy, and he told his buddy and so on
Speaker 13: and so forth.
Speaker 1: So they'd have to sort of have furthered this through
Speaker 1: law enforcement somehow.
Speaker 3: So like they're pushing them, like if if an inmate
Speaker 3: doesn't have an address to go to when they leave, right,
Speaker 3: what are they supposed to put down? Because it sounds
Speaker 3: like they're just like there's somebody that's processing their paperwork
Speaker 3: that's just going you know, if you don't have an address, well,
Speaker 3: just we put you here and you have to you know,
Speaker 3: be in the parking lot of this coals or something
Speaker 3: for twelve hours a day.
Speaker 2: And the people who screw on the stores and stuff
Speaker 2: are like.
Speaker 3: Yeah, there's a bunch of recently released criminals just hanging
Speaker 3: around here on house arrests somehow and living in their cars.
Speaker 13: Yeah, and I mean at that point they're loitering, they're trespassing.
Speaker 13: There's a number of issues there.
Speaker 5: Yeah.
Speaker 13: But you know, typically when you're when you're released from prison,
Speaker 13: there's a you know, it could be a parole process,
Speaker 13: and you do have to list an address. Sometimes you
Speaker 13: have to get a job, depends on the conditions of
Speaker 13: your parole. But you know, typically the prisons are so
Speaker 13: supposed to kind of assist you with that. There's halfway houses,
Speaker 13: there's programs if you don't have a place to go.
Speaker 13: So I don't know how this ended up where they're
Speaker 13: just using a random you know, convenience or.
Speaker 3: Corner store owner can't get the sex offenders off of
Speaker 3: his property and there and they're having their meetings with
Speaker 3: their probation officers and like picnic tables outside his corner store.
Speaker 2: There's just sex offenders hanging out everywhere.
Speaker 1: It's not good. It's not good. I did want to
Speaker 1: run something by you, Moses. A lot of people are
Speaker 1: confused on this topic. This is one of those things
Speaker 1: where if you ask people, they'll be very confident, but
Speaker 1: they don't have any idea what.
Speaker 2: They're talking about. I want to talk about entrapment with
Speaker 2: the police.
Speaker 1: There was a bust recently in New Jersey that will
Speaker 1: help us discuss this, but it doesn't matter where it was.
Speaker 1: Really this says New Jersey cop disguises himself as a
Speaker 1: shrub to bust seventy four distracted drivers, and the cop
Speaker 1: is in like what they call a gilly suits huh.
Speaker 1: So he looks like a bush and he's got some
Speaker 1: binoculars and he's sort of hiding in plane sight as
Speaker 1: he's giving out tickets to these drivers that were distracted.
Speaker 1: There was another cop on the scene that had a
Speaker 1: T shirt that says not a cop I believe, And
Speaker 1: he was part of this thing. And people often talk
Speaker 1: about entrapment with with law enforcement.
Speaker 2: What does that actually mean? What things are in Trappman?
Speaker 13: Is this in trap So usually the officers have to
Speaker 13: be doing something to help further the crime or encourage
Speaker 13: the crime. It can't just be something that you were
Speaker 13: going to do anyways. And they were like just there
Speaker 13: said like okay, or kind of we're just supportive of it.
Speaker 13: So you know, they really have to be. They're sort
Speaker 13: of putting the idea in your head. They're helping you
Speaker 13: do it, they're pushing you forward. It can't just be
Speaker 13: and I don't know what was going on here. He
Speaker 13: was distracted distracted driving, So they're obviously doing that anyways.
Speaker 1: It doesn't matter that there's cop there or not.
Speaker 13: So, but we've seen some cases and trapman is rare,
Speaker 13: but you know, we've seen some cases before where the
Speaker 13: cops will say well, you should go and do this,
Speaker 13: and the verse like no, I don't really want to
Speaker 13: do that, and they're like no, no, and they start
Speaker 13: pressuring them to do that and like shoving them yeah,
Speaker 13: and then they start offering them money to do that,
Speaker 13: and they start telling them, oh, you can get away
Speaker 13: with it. So that's where they're really you know, encouraging
Speaker 13: them and stepping over that line into entrapment. Once they
Speaker 13: do it, then they get arrested. So it's not a
Speaker 13: cop hiding behind a bush. It's a cop, not a
Speaker 13: cop car hiding where you can't see them, right exactly.
Speaker 1: Growing up, my father really believed that, and I think
Speaker 1: a lot of people actually did. Will take your questions
Speaker 1: if you have any for Moses or the show in
Speaker 1: generals Triple eight four four to three News, Triple eight
Speaker 1: four four to three News Quick Break. When we come back,
Speaker 1: we'll get into your feedback, your responses. You can also
Speaker 1: email the show if you'd like tips at thenewsjunkie dot com.
Speaker 2: Right now, though, let's make it official, let's do the
Speaker 2: Power Hour.
Speaker 1: They said it couldn't keep done. Then they said, get
Speaker 1: ready to drive. I'm a spooky pumpkin. It's time for
Speaker 1: the Power Hour on the News, Chunky, I'm glad it
Speaker 1: wasn't a pedophile thing.
Speaker 5: Glad.
Speaker 1: Yeah, glad we escaped that one for now, Pumpkin on
Speaker 1: the pedophile.
Speaker 2: Yeah, we'll move right on past all of this quick break.
Speaker 1: When we come back, we'll get into your questions and
Speaker 1: anything else that we have rolling into the final bit
Speaker 1: of the show here for the week. So stand by
Speaker 1: because that is coming up next in the News, Chunkie.
Speaker 1: One of the big stories this week, Moses. It is
Speaker 1: kind of a weird way to navigate, is this story
Speaker 1: about the young man is teenager, I believe Nolan Wells.
Speaker 1: I'm not sure how up on that one you are,
Speaker 1: but he was this guy in Mississippi who went out
Speaker 1: onto an island off the coast of Mississippi to party
Speaker 1: with his friends and then they left because there were
Speaker 1: some issues with their boat, and he kept partying on
Speaker 1: the island and then they ended up finding them dead
Speaker 1: later on that night. And the autopsy results are suggesting that,
Speaker 1: you know, this was a drowning and a terrible accident,
Speaker 1: but his family is just convinced that something the fairy
Speaker 1: has happened with his friends and his family lawyered up.
Speaker 1: They got that guy Ben Crump who gets involved in
Speaker 1: cases like this and they end up doing their own
Speaker 1: investigations and they have their own stuff going on. What
Speaker 1: do you do in cases like this? Like at some
Speaker 1: point the family is so determined that this was a
Speaker 1: nefarious murder, but it doesn't appear that the facts line
Speaker 1: up with that, right does a grand jury? Way in?
Speaker 2: I know they were talking about doing that.
Speaker 13: Well, ultimately, you know, it's up to the prosecutor as
Speaker 13: to whether they want to bring charges and they can
Speaker 13: you know, submit that to a grand jury if they
Speaker 13: want to, but there has to be some proof and
Speaker 13: some evidence. So you know, in these types of cases,
Speaker 13: the family has you know, basically paid a private investigator
Speaker 13: or an investigative service of some kind to go out
Speaker 13: and do their own investigation and try to gather evidence
Speaker 13: because they believe that law enforcement's not doing a sufficient job.
Speaker 13: And then they'll submit that to the state attorney or
Speaker 13: the prosecutor's office and they'll ultimately review and they make
Speaker 13: a decision. They have final say basically as to you know,
Speaker 13: who they bring chargers against. And yeah, there's a grand
Speaker 13: jury proceeding and things like that that they can utilize.
Speaker 13: But if they don't think there's evidence there, especially if
Speaker 13: a grand jury doesn't think there's evidence there, and there's
Speaker 13: not going to be charges brought.
Speaker 1: What about the friends here, because one thing I saw
Speaker 1: that's kind of crazy is a lot of this kid's friends.
Speaker 1: You know, he's young, he's a black kid, and the friends,
Speaker 1: the rest of the friend group is white. Right, so
Speaker 1: the family sort of thinks this is a race thing
Speaker 1: or something. There's absolutely no evidence to support that. In fact,
Speaker 1: they were his friends for God's sake. But the family
Speaker 1: gets upset about this. They get their attorney. This attorney,
Speaker 1: Ben Crump, is like hyping up these things, hyping up
Speaker 1: the race angles and some of these things like this. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and now the friends, who there's no evidence that they
Speaker 1: did anything wrong, they're getting death threats. There's people who
Speaker 1: are convinced that they murder this person. There's conspiracies for them,
Speaker 1: and some of them are lawyering up. Do they end
Speaker 1: up having a case, possibly even against the other attorney.
Speaker 13: Well, it depends what's being said about them, right, I Mean,
Speaker 13: if it's clearly defamatory and not supported by anything factual,
Speaker 13: then yes, they could have some sort of lawsuit against
Speaker 13: them for damages based on what was said and the
Speaker 13: ultimate damage that they face from that. But you know,
Speaker 13: if there's some sort of factual evidence to support that,
Speaker 13: then they may not have a lawsuit. So ultimately it's
Speaker 13: going to depend on what can be proven in a
Speaker 13: court of law. Now, you know, just because in this
Speaker 13: case they don't want to bring criminal charges, you know,
Speaker 13: the family can also try to bring civil charges against
Speaker 13: these individuals for some sort of negligence. But again, you
Speaker 13: still have to have proof there. It's a lower, lower
Speaker 13: burden of proof, it's a lower standard, but you still
Speaker 13: have to have evidence to support it.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't see any evidence that they did anything,
Speaker 1: at least this far into it. You can ring us
Speaker 1: up if you've got something you want to ask Moses
Speaker 1: Triple eight four four three News. Oh, let's go over
Speaker 1: to Mike. Mike, are you with us? I am? Hey, Mike,
Speaker 1: go ahead. You got a question from Oh, yes, I do.
Speaker 15: There's an airbnb that I frequent up in Tennessee and
Speaker 15: I've stayed there so many times. The owners lived right
Speaker 15: in the property, right next door, and last time I
Speaker 15: was there, the owner approached me and said, Hey, if
Speaker 15: you ever want to save a little bit of money,
Speaker 15: just book with us directly and skip Airbnb. And I
Speaker 15: read somewhere I think that that's a bad idea because
Speaker 15: that cancels out the insurance that Airbnb provides. I was
Speaker 15: curious if you know who that insurance covers. I mean,
Speaker 15: does that is the Airbnb's insurance? Is that for me
Speaker 15: or is that for the owner? For both of us?
Speaker 7: Well, were wondering about liability, you know, a liability question
Speaker 7: like if it's winter time and like say I'm using
Speaker 7: a space heater or something like that catches the place
Speaker 7: on fire.
Speaker 1: All right, thank you for the question after me, Yeah,
Speaker 1: thank you for the question. Make it's a good question
Speaker 1: saying if they if they go around to save a
Speaker 1: little money around Airbnb, is that bad? It could be.
Speaker 13: So you know, if you're in an Airbnb property, Let's
Speaker 13: say you get injured on their property. Something's wrong. Like
Speaker 13: we had a case one time where the guy ran
Speaker 13: an Airbnb. There was a dock and the dock was rotted.
Speaker 13: He fell through the dock. So then Airbnb has essentially
Speaker 13: homeowners insurance that covers it because you rented it through
Speaker 13: their platform, say with vrbo, with kind of all these services,
Speaker 13: it's usually a million dollar you know injury policy. Now
Speaker 13: in his scenario here, if you accident, let's see accially
Speaker 13: burned out the house with the space heater right, Well
Speaker 13: that there, there's going to depend if you're going outside
Speaker 13: the Airbnb or v vrbo platform or merbo, then it's
Speaker 13: going to depend on what kind of insurance the actual
Speaker 13: homeowner has. If they just have typical standard home owners
Speaker 13: insurance and they didn't disclose to their insurance company that
Speaker 13: they do short term rentals, then that claim is going
Speaker 13: to be denied.
Speaker 1: So it gets more complicated. Yeah, now the.
Speaker 13: Homeowner is going to be suing you saying, well, you
Speaker 13: started the fire, you need to pay for it. And
Speaker 13: that's where it gets complicated. So it does eliminate, you know,
Speaker 13: a lot of issues by going through the platform because
Speaker 13: they provide the proper insurance there. Now obviously ninety nine
Speaker 13: point nine percent of cases nothing happens, but if it
Speaker 13: does happen, you could be you could have an issue.
Speaker 1: Right, it's worth protecting yourself. I guess yeah. You know
Speaker 1: you you mentioned doc when you were talking about that,
Speaker 1: which flashed some in my mind. Did you see the
Speaker 1: story this week about that guy who was found guilty
Speaker 1: by a jury because he got into a fight with
Speaker 1: somebody that there were Yeah, the guy was drunk, I guess,
Speaker 1: and he hit the guy. I don't know if this
Speaker 1: is fund of Ruskin boat dock.
Speaker 5: I guess.
Speaker 1: I don't know if this shows it or not. This
Speaker 1: is like the whole case. But the guy punched the
Speaker 1: other guy and when he knocked him out, he fell
Speaker 1: onto the dock, and then he used his foot to
Speaker 1: push him into the water.
Speaker 2: And the man drowned, and so he was hell liable
Speaker 2: for his death.
Speaker 1: And watching that case, the jury came back fairly quickly
Speaker 1: with a murder verdict on this person. And I guess
Speaker 1: the guy's argument was like, I didn't drown him, I
Speaker 1: just knocked him into the water, right right, yeah, which
Speaker 1: I mean, it depends on what state.
Speaker 13: I guess this is Florida, right, yeah, I believe so
Speaker 13: if it was Ruskin, it was Florida Ruskin. I don't
Speaker 13: know what they convicted him. I'm assuming it's some sort
Speaker 13: of man murder second degree.
Speaker 2: This says.
Speaker 1: He was found good of first degree murder for pushing
Speaker 1: forty seven year old Melvin Jimenez off a boat dock
Speaker 1: at the Little Harbor Marina where this interesting. So I'm
Speaker 1: guessing here the debate was probably that little push he
Speaker 1: made with his foot right, yes, because that shows you know,
Speaker 1: some sort of intent towards, you know, actually murdering him
Speaker 1: versus a second degree murder or a manslaughter or even
Speaker 1: an involuntary manslaughter. Because we see cases before where there
Speaker 1: was actually a case here in winter Park a few
Speaker 1: a number of years ago where a couple of kids
Speaker 1: got into a fight. One threw a punch and you know,
Speaker 1: he hit the other one just right or just wrong.
Speaker 1: Guy died, and so there it's usually, you know, an
Speaker 1: involuntary or voluntary manslaughter charge. It was obviously an accident,
Speaker 1: but you're still liable for what happens to the other person. Here.
Speaker 1: I mean he that was more than just a little push.
Speaker 1: I mean he really pushed the guy in there. And
Speaker 1: we're watching it here. He walks up to him, right,
Speaker 1: the guy, they're both.
Speaker 8: On the dock.
Speaker 1: He's going to get his flip flops. He looks like
Speaker 1: he's a little drunk. Then he walks up to him,
Speaker 1: hits him, knocks him out. He gets knocked out because
Speaker 1: he hit his head on something. Then he grabs his
Speaker 1: legs and throws him into the water, And they said
Speaker 1: that's murder, that's first degree murder. Well, and I'm assuming
Speaker 1: he didn't jump into try yeah.
Speaker 13: Yeah, And so you know, if we changed the scenario there,
Speaker 13: let's say he just threw one punch and the guy
Speaker 13: fell in the water, there wasn't that additional step of
Speaker 13: him grabbing his legs and dragging him off of the dock. Yeah,
Speaker 13: he would not be facing a first degree murder charge.
Speaker 13: Most likely he'd be facing probably some sort of manslaughter charge.
Speaker 13: But because he took that additional step, it shows intent
Speaker 13: to some degree. At least, the jury found that it
Speaker 13: showed intent to murder the individual by by pushing a
Speaker 13: you know, incapacitated, unconscious individual into the water. If he
Speaker 13: was defending himself and uh, and the guy ended up
Speaker 13: in the water, does he now have a duty to
Speaker 13: get the guy out of the water.
Speaker 1: It's a good question.
Speaker 13: So if you let's say they get in a fight,
Speaker 13: you know, self defense, he throws a punch, right, yep,
Speaker 13: the guy falls into the water. You know, typically there's
Speaker 13: not a duty to rescue in Florida. So if he's
Speaker 13: just threw one punch. He guy fell on the water,
Speaker 13: you know, and he may have a defense he didn't
Speaker 13: realize the guy was unconscious whatever.
Speaker 1: But usually there's not a duty to rescue. However, here,
Speaker 1: you know, if he.
Speaker 13: Was self defense, and even in this scenario, if he
Speaker 13: knocked him out but then took that additional step to
Speaker 13: drag him into the water, it's still murdered.
Speaker 1: Quick break. When we come back, we'll hear from you.
Speaker 1: Send a dispatch or an email tips at the news
Speaker 1: Junkie dot com.
Speaker 2: All right, let's see when we come back.
Speaker 1: I want to talk about a couple of things we'll do,
Speaker 1: like sort of a grab bag segment. Oh, it's our
Speaker 1: final Are we already in our last second? Ye? My god.
Speaker 1: Final dispatches stories that didn't make the cut, And today
Speaker 1: I learned to wrap everything up for a Friday that's
Speaker 1: coming up next in the News Junkie Big Weekend Plans, Moses,
Speaker 1: are you finally just relaxing, for God's sake? Just hanging
Speaker 1: round For the most part, this guy has been in
Speaker 1: a whirlwind tour over there, just going from place to place.
Speaker 2: You come back and you gotta go to another place,
Speaker 2: and you got to go to a conference.
Speaker 1: It's a rough life rough life. I feel like the
Speaker 1: schedule of attorney conferences grows by the year. It's it's insane.
Speaker 1: It's a whole industry at this point. Was the Boston
Speaker 1: one nice because I remember it Seeland? Which one was
Speaker 1: the one that we kind of wanted to go to?
Speaker 1: Was it that, like, was that the Atlanta one or something?
Speaker 1: Or that the Atlanta one was crazy?
Speaker 13: I don't think they do that one anymore, but they
Speaker 13: know some of these conferences hired, you know, Josh and
Speaker 13: I went to one that like Boys to Men was
Speaker 13: atte That was the Atlanta one one year.
Speaker 1: I think that had Ludacrous. We didn't go to that one.
Speaker 1: But is it weird? I feel like it's it's like
Speaker 1: boys and Men performing for a super small group of people.
Speaker 3: Which do you think, Moses you would have known more
Speaker 3: of the words to Boys to Men or Ludicrous?
Speaker 1: I'd say it's actually probably pretty equal.
Speaker 13: I mean, Boys to Men had that one album that
Speaker 13: I feel like everybody knew, which they've obviously been banking
Speaker 13: on for the last four God.
Speaker 1: Yeah, they've been playing at Epcot for like a twenty
Speaker 1: years now, just off that one album alone.
Speaker 2: Ludaicris.
Speaker 1: Though, wait, when he's playing at like like a SeaWorld
Speaker 1: type event, I don't know every concert a SeaWorld just
Speaker 1: looks like a good time. It does like, what was
Speaker 1: it the Yang Twins that were playing Hell yeah, I
Speaker 1: mean they're just okay alumnus yeah yeah, right from that
Speaker 1: to SeaWorld and they're like just absolutely going nuts out there.
Speaker 1: But we should bring them back. They were we could
Speaker 1: do that. They were very they were affordable at the time.
Speaker 1: I don't know if they've gotten more expensive since since that.
Speaker 1: I wonder if they still cash in their airline tickets.
Speaker 1: I remember they were so specific. They weren't the only
Speaker 1: one that wanted to get paid cash. The only group
Speaker 1: that we had performed was it.
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, Juvenile, but Juvenile had uh we had like
Speaker 3: a down payment for him, and then we had to
Speaker 3: give him a rest in cash. Rappers like cash rappersh
Speaker 3: a friend of a friend, like my friend Barry knows
Speaker 3: some of the guys in Zach brownband and they did
Speaker 3: a song with Snoop Dogg and they had to pay
Speaker 3: him in cash to be a part of the music video.
Speaker 3: So they had to deliver him a paper bag full
Speaker 3: of cash just to be in the music video with
Speaker 3: them for the song that they did together, and I
Speaker 3: was like, man, they love cash these rappers.
Speaker 1: By the way, one of my favorite tweets of the
Speaker 1: week was about this, you know the story we talked
Speaker 1: about the TSA thing where the young kids stole the
Speaker 1: cannonballs and they put him in his mom's bag and
Speaker 1: then when they're flying through TSA, TSA freaks out because
Speaker 1: there's cannonballs there. The headlines were juvenile caught by TSA
Speaker 1: trying to fly with five cannonballs stolen from a Civil
Speaker 1: War fort in Alabama, and some of the tweets were like, oh,
Speaker 1: I didn't know Juvenile's game was on this level.
Speaker 2: He's bringing it back.
Speaker 1: Half of the people responding thought there was I think
Speaker 1: half of the tweet replies are all the juvenile the rapper.
Speaker 1: Everybody wanted that direction with it. Most is another thing
Speaker 1: we should talk about real quick. I know time is
Speaker 1: ticking on this THC drink situation in the United States.
Speaker 1: Texas this week already stopped selling them because they had
Speaker 1: a statewide ban on this. The federal thing. ABC Liquor
Speaker 1: is doing something. I think somebody emailed that over Courtney's
Speaker 1: signing petitions. You know, everybody's trying to get moving on
Speaker 1: this because there will be a ban come November of
Speaker 1: this year on these THC drinks and that went from
Speaker 1: nothing to a big portion of these stores. It took
Speaker 1: away a lot of business from people buying alcohol. Otherwise.
Speaker 2: At this point, what can anybody do?
Speaker 1: Is it just basically on the politicians whether they want
Speaker 1: to take up the issue or not. Yeah, basically.
Speaker 13: I mean, you know, I assume there's been some some
Speaker 13: heavy lobbying here, maybe by the alcohol industry or others,
Speaker 13: and so yeah, unless the lobbyists get back in there,
Speaker 13: the politicians change some of these laws, yeah, that's we're
Speaker 13: gonna be stuck with them.
Speaker 1: And then the companies are just screwed out of it.
Speaker 1: All of that industry that gets built up.
Speaker 13: Yeah, you know, the industry is gonna die obviously. Now
Speaker 13: the retailers may have some protection where you know, some
Speaker 13: of these companies may have to buy back the drinks,
Speaker 13: but if they file bankruptcy, then some of these retailers
Speaker 13: may get hurt too.
Speaker 1: You know, it's a catastrophe. I don't know if it'll
Speaker 1: do anything, but I think Courtney's like I'm signing a petition.
Speaker 1: I'm getting my name on there. They're trying to take
Speaker 1: our THHD drinks away. Seems pretty harmless, honestly. Actually. Janine
Speaker 1: sent an email saying I received an email from ABC
Speaker 1: Liquors saying the band was coming up for THHD drinks.
Speaker 1: Here's a link to reach out to Congress if you
Speaker 1: care to check it out. Have a great day. Yeah,
Speaker 1: a lot of people were spreading that around, so if
Speaker 1: you care about that, look for the link.
Speaker 2: Also see what else we have.
Speaker 1: There's anything else that I.
Speaker 2: Definitely need to mention before the end of the show.
Speaker 1: Oh Mo, there was something about this Luigi Mangioni case
Speaker 1: that I keep seeing. In the Luigi Mangioni case where
Speaker 1: he killed the healthcare CEO in New York City, his
Speaker 1: radical supporters are leading the charge, pushing for a legal
Speaker 1: loophole to be used. Even if a jury believes somebody
Speaker 1: is guilty beyond reasonable doubt, they can still let the
Speaker 1: person walk free if they think the law the person's
Speaker 1: accused of breaking is unjust. I've not heard of this before.
Speaker 1: Is this new to you? Like, if a jury agrees, yes,
Speaker 1: he's guilty of that thing, but we don't agree with
Speaker 1: the law and we think it's unjust. They could let
Speaker 1: Luigi Mangioni free.
Speaker 13: So I think what they're arguing is jury nullification, which
Speaker 13: basically happens when a jury returns it's usually a not well,
Speaker 13: it would be a not guilty verdict, but they return
Speaker 13: that vertic not because the evidence doesn't approve the crime,
Speaker 13: but because they disagree with the law, or think the
Speaker 13: law is unfair, or believe the punishment is too harsh. Now,
Speaker 13: it's extraordinarily rare and it's very difficult to argue, especially
Speaker 13: in a murder situation.
Speaker 1: Hmm, but it does.
Speaker 13: It does happen every Technically they could do it well.
Speaker 13: I mean, if a jury comes back not guilty, there's
Speaker 13: nothing you know, the court can really do as long
Speaker 13: as that's their true verdict. You can't really challenge the verdict.
Speaker 13: But what the underlying reasoning of that would be, especially
Speaker 13: if there's a case with a lot of evidence, you know,
Speaker 13: they usually suspect it would be dury nullification, which is
Speaker 13: very difficult to kind of make that argument, but sometimes
Speaker 13: it does happen, but.
Speaker 1: It's very very rare. It's like oh Hail Mary type
Speaker 1: essentially situation. Okay, all right, let's get the hell out
Speaker 1: of here.
Speaker 5: Here we go.
Speaker 2: Time to wrap it up for the week. Let's do today.
Speaker 5: I learned the.
Speaker 14: Following information may make you feel smarter, but will not
Speaker 14: actually increase your IQ.
Speaker 1: So don't get cocky.
Speaker 14: Now it's done, or what we call today.
Speaker 1: It is today learned for a Friday, July thirty first,
Speaker 1: twenty twenty six.
Speaker 2: Josh, great job as well as on mediocre work.
Speaker 1: Thank you.
Speaker 2: I appreciate that too. Appreciate that too.
Speaker 1: See Lane, try not to.
Speaker 2: Destroy your body any further this weekend.
Speaker 1: Please. You're all bruised and bandaged up. Your knees are
Speaker 1: going to hell. You've fallen over and knocked things down.
Speaker 1: Let's try and hopefully I don't get sick too. God
Speaker 1: only knows it. We'll be back on Monday.
Speaker 2: But here goes nothing today. Learn this guy right here,
Speaker 2: that's right.
Speaker 1: Bob Marley gave songwriting credits for this song No Woman,
Speaker 1: No Cry to his friend.
Speaker 2: He didn't write the song, he wasn't part of the song.
Speaker 1: He just wanted to give him some royalty so that
Speaker 1: they could support his soup kitchen that helped out poor
Speaker 1: people in Jamaica. In Kingston, very make up. It is
Speaker 1: as irie as ire gets Josh. That's my thoughts on it.
Speaker 1: And that brings us to the final one for the
Speaker 1: week today. Learn this band right here, that's right, Motley Kriw.
Speaker 1: Some one goes out to Antonio Pizza trying to shut
Speaker 1: down the smoke into the boys room. You know what
Speaker 1: I mean. Motley Crewe once paid, was paid a million
Speaker 1: dollars to be the opening act by some unknown group
Speaker 1: who launched their own tour. There you go, Moses, thank you,
Speaker 1: Thank you guys, and we'll see you all next week,
Speaker 1: same time, same place. Missed end of the show, Get
