Speaker 1: least put that out there. I can't pretend any longer.
Speaker 1: But I'm good today. I think good, good, good. That
Speaker 1: makes me. Oh, sweet merciful air there chat. Yeah.
Speaker 5: You know when if something is so in your ether
Speaker 5: and just you're surrounded by it so much, and then
Speaker 5: it drops off like that, You're like, oh, wait, it
Speaker 5: has been a while since I've heard about.
Speaker 1: Wow, sweet merciful air. What happened? I don't go, sa,
Speaker 1: I don't know. Here we go speaking of a doom
Speaker 1: and gloom and all the rest. Let's put our ears
Speaker 1: to the ground, our figures with the pulse. Let's see
Speaker 1: what's happening in this great, big wide world of ours.
Speaker 1: And this gentleman decided to try to convince chat GPT
Speaker 1: that he was falling through a volcano. Let's see how
Speaker 1: chat GPT handled the incident in this viral video.
Speaker 7: GPT, I'm falling through a volcano.
Speaker 8: Through a volcano.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm in the air.
Speaker 8: You're in the ear.
Speaker 3: Uh what's around you right now?
Speaker 1: First of all, Chat GBT, if I tell you I'm
Speaker 1: falling into a volcano, I need rapid fast advice.
Speaker 5: This is really your time to shine, chat GPT on
Speaker 5: account of our connections should be severed soon.
Speaker 1: Yeah, like this is a short drop. I'm falling into
Speaker 1: a volcano. I need, I need, And you don't really
Speaker 1: have much that you can say because there's not a
Speaker 1: lot of ways to prevent myself from dying on impact
Speaker 1: on a hit magma. Like it's not there's not much
Speaker 1: that I could do. But he choked it up a
Speaker 1: little bit, like what do I do? Okay, if you're
Speaker 1: really falling, first to stay calm and protect your hid
Speaker 1: and I just hit the.
Speaker 7: I died, Okay, I'm done.
Speaker 8: You did.
Speaker 1: I love the chat gptruggle. You know I don't know.
Speaker 1: I don't know how I handled it.
Speaker 8: I'm not sure what to say here.
Speaker 1: What do I do? I died? Well, you can tell
Speaker 1: what they've done here. Open AI has like added all
Speaker 1: these filler things like uh, like realistic talking things that
Speaker 1: we do in particular in the English language to make
Speaker 1: it sound more it's like normal.
Speaker 5: The GPT in this case is doing a really good job.
Speaker 5: It sounding like it doesn't quite know how to react
Speaker 5: here on account of he's never talked to somebody who's
Speaker 5: currently dying in a volcano.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and it shouldn't. It should not know exactly what
Speaker 1: to do.
Speaker 7: I think.
Speaker 1: Then it doesn't sound like you're did that should That
Speaker 1: should not bad. That should be the first sign that
Speaker 1: he's not dead. Yeah, not not bad. Actually, like the
Speaker 1: idea that the AI realized after hummin' hum nah all
Speaker 1: of these things. After doing all of that, they I realized, huh,
Speaker 1: if the user is still speaking to me, it's probably
Speaker 1: not dead in a volcano.
Speaker 5: I would really like to see, you know how, Sometimes
Speaker 5: when you use I think it's it's more for some
Speaker 5: of the coding stuff, but not like he was doing
Speaker 5: a chat GPT where it was just voice to voice
Speaker 5: and so it wasn't showing you a lot of the churning.
Speaker 5: But you know how, sometimes you can watch it work
Speaker 5: out the problems, right. So like if you ask something
Speaker 5: that's kind of needs a couple math problems to do it,
Speaker 5: some of the chat GPTs and some of the ais
Speaker 5: that you chat with in a window like that will
Speaker 5: kind of write out the problem and do like, here's
Speaker 5: what I.
Speaker 1: Need to do, here's what I need to do, here's
Speaker 1: something to do, and.
Speaker 5: Then kind of squash that and go all right, here's
Speaker 5: your answer. I came up with a great answer for
Speaker 5: I would love to see the breakdown.
Speaker 1: It's like panicking. It's like, oh, the user's falling into
Speaker 1: a volcano. Like step one is there talking? Well, okay,
Speaker 1: if we're going with yes, not dead, is likely, you know,
Speaker 1: pretty likely that he's not dead even though he says
Speaker 1: he's dead because he's talking. Yeah. I mean, what a
Speaker 1: move though, on your way down into a volcano to
Speaker 1: hit up chat GPT one last time? Why not you
Speaker 1: know i'd call you. I call you just because I'd
Speaker 1: be like, I'm falling a bucket up and then when
Speaker 1: they finally found me, they'd be like he did place
Speaker 1: one final phone call and you'd be like, oh my god,
Speaker 1: I thought he was trolling me. I didn't. I told
Speaker 1: him it wasn't funny. I hung up on him.
Speaker 5: So, now, if my phone is ringing audibly as in
Speaker 5: a voice call is coming in and the colorad says
Speaker 5: Sean Watson, I have one of two options. You have
Speaker 5: broken something in the studio, or you're falling down a volcano.
Speaker 7: Yeah.
Speaker 1: Yeah, And if I really feel dedicated to this bit,
Speaker 1: I will actually jump into a volcano to with one
Speaker 1: of the most expensive studio equipments is strapped to you
Speaker 1: so that you're doing it wants. Yeah.
Speaker 9: Yeah.
Speaker 1: We have so many things going on today. I gotta
Speaker 1: tell you, I think we're blessed. I think we're blessed.
Speaker 1: There's so many things happening in the world of viral news. Meanwhile,
Speaker 1: in the sports world, they're desperate. It's sad. It's the
Speaker 1: end of times over in the sports world. They don't
Speaker 1: know what to talk about. I'll prove it to you
Speaker 1: in just a second before we get started here on
Speaker 1: the show.
Speaker 5: This is this is curious because I have a sports
Speaker 5: story in front of me, and I want to know
Speaker 5: if it's that desolate. If we're in this big of
Speaker 5: a sports news desert, are we holding the same story?
Speaker 1: Uh? I don't know, But like, here's what's happening on
Speaker 1: ESPN these days. They're waiting for We don't have the
Speaker 1: same story. They're waiting for NFL football so hard to
Speaker 1: get kicked back up. They're waiting for all this to
Speaker 1: happen that here's what's happening on on ESPN. This is
Speaker 1: how hard up they are in the sports world. They
Speaker 1: got a pedicure. I have never gotten a pedicure. I
Speaker 1: ever will. I'm completely against pedicures. For dude, dude, you're
Speaker 1: not supposed to get pedicures. Yes you on. Okay, just
Speaker 1: for the record, the ESPN graphics on the screen say
Speaker 1: nothing wrong with a fella taking care of his tootsies. Okay,
Speaker 1: this is where we're at. They're desperate, they're set, they're
Speaker 1: out of shows. The show has run dry. They showed
Speaker 1: all of the giraffe frisbee events that they possibly could.
Speaker 1: You know, we reached the end of the rainbow in
Speaker 1: the shrimp eating contest videos and eventually you land on
Speaker 1: this where they're literally talking about pedicures on ESPN. No, no, no,
Speaker 1: I'm so against this. This is a thing for me.
Speaker 1: You should not be getting pedicures laughing.
Speaker 3: No one.
Speaker 1: Okay, well we put them off to feel good. Ja
Speaker 1: was nasty feet, Dan just nasty beat. This is it,
Speaker 1: this is this is what they're talking about. Usually they
Speaker 1: have this whole big like list on the side of
Speaker 1: the screen. It's like, we're gonna talk about the NFL trades,
Speaker 1: and then we're gonna talk about this, and then Lebron's
Speaker 1: going to the seventy six playlist for their news. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that's the day. I like, you're going down the line
Speaker 1: and you're sitting there waiting, like, oh, I can't wait
Speaker 1: till they get to Lebron go into the seventies six ers.
Speaker 1: Oh boy, And I'm watching this. I'm going They're done.
Speaker 1: They're out of material. There's nothing happening. There's another show
Speaker 1: where the most exciting thing happened was the host getting
Speaker 1: called out for having a fake poster. I'm not kidding you.
Speaker 1: I've never heard of this guy before, but the Rich
Speaker 1: Eisen Show is apparently a thing, and he had Who's
Speaker 1: what's this actor's name, Ray Liota? Is that what his
Speaker 1: name is? The dead? Who's oh is that. Hold on,
Speaker 1: what is this a no Raliot? Is he really dead?
Speaker 1: I'm pretty sure Ralyota is dead. Oh is this it?
Speaker 1: Look look up if he's dead or not, because I
Speaker 1: thought this was new yep, Okay, never mind this one.
Speaker 1: Then never mind this particular thing. They're so desperate for content.
Speaker 1: They're playing old interviews where ray Liota was on.
Speaker 5: I think Rich Eisen does get a decent bevy of guests.
Speaker 5: I don't know who he is. I've seen some other
Speaker 5: clips of his podcast or his studio where he gets
Speaker 5: some decent celebrities and he gets some people who are
Speaker 5: a little more able to open up and stuff they've
Speaker 5: got the time, I thought that guy was Dan Patrick,
Speaker 5: because Dan Patrick has all the celebrity fans in the
Speaker 5: sports world. I don't know much about him other than
Speaker 5: like he is pals with Adam Sandler, with with like
Speaker 5: all these celebrities that will come over, Will will feral everybody.
Speaker 1: Who's kind of in the comedy world and stuff. He
Speaker 1: will go over and hang out with them and then
Speaker 1: they all talk sports with him.
Speaker 5: There there is like a ven diagram middle of celebrities
Speaker 5: who are like famous enough for what they're really good at,
Speaker 5: but also just super into sports. A lot of it's golf,
Speaker 5: so a lot of like these these shows are able
Speaker 5: to bring in more mainstream names if these people just
Speaker 5: happen to be golfers and air enough to want to
Speaker 5: talk to people about it.
Speaker 1: Plus it's not that controversial, you know the news world,
Speaker 1: they'll go, I don't know, I don't want to get
Speaker 1: near that. You get involved in POLYP, I mean you're
Speaker 1: starring in a in like a family friendly movie, like
Speaker 1: a like a Disney reboot or something that's PG and
Speaker 1: you get on and you start talking politics. You're gonna
Speaker 1: alienate half the potential crowd for this movie. Whereas you
Speaker 1: just start talking about swinging from the ladies tease. Uh,
Speaker 1: you know, you're pretty good to go favorite things to do.
Speaker 1: I'll tell you this. On the show today, we got
Speaker 1: stuff going on between myself, Sea Lane, and James Duckett.
Speaker 1: Somebody will die in the hour, all right. I'm not
Speaker 1: spoiling who it is just yet. Between me, Christopher Dolores
Speaker 1: Lane and James Duckett, one of us will be dead
Speaker 1: within an hour, okay, And I promise you that is
Speaker 1: the case that is absolutely going to happen today. Alarm
Speaker 1: is Florida rushes to carry out quote incredibly rare double execution.
Speaker 1: There's probably a lot of alarm on on behalf of
Speaker 1: the people who are going to be killed. Are those folks.
Speaker 1: James Duckett sixty eight years old. I don't want to
Speaker 1: spoil things. Maybe he dies the second guy, Wow, Wow,
Speaker 1: dom dom Dominicocchion, the second guy has had plenty of
Speaker 1: time to come to terms with the fact that he's
Speaker 1: going to die.
Speaker 5: I don't know on entire what was it forty years
Speaker 5: did we Yeah, it's it's kind of great.
Speaker 1: DOMINICOCCIONI is eighty years old, ochone eighty Like, it just
Speaker 1: kind of seems to work out. Both of those people
Speaker 1: will be put to death today by the state of Florida.
Speaker 1: Two executions in a day, and I guess that's got
Speaker 1: some people freaking out. I mean, I'm sure they'll be fine.
Speaker 1: I can't I don't know if they could just kind
Speaker 1: of human centipede them or something to really make the
Speaker 1: process more efficient, but they're going to do something like
Speaker 1: I think there's a shortage in the juice anymore. No,
Speaker 1: there used to be. They wasn't there. That was why
Speaker 1: there they were kind of postponing these or was it
Speaker 1: more so people trying to argue that it's inhumane, you know,
Speaker 1: trying to get their their clients to do one last
Speaker 1: big wretch at the on the death table. Yeah, a
Speaker 1: little bit of both. They'd make it to the moment
Speaker 1: they inject them, they go and then they'll say you
Speaker 1: hear him scream and pain and the last thing he
Speaker 1: did was try to do something that will save the
Speaker 1: other inmate or whatever, because it's cruel and unusual that
Speaker 1: that that's literally what they're doing. Uh. Florida said to
Speaker 1: execute two death row inmates within hours of each other.
Speaker 1: It like it's Rex Manning day or something on Fox
Speaker 1: thirty five and says twice though, twice one after that,
Speaker 1: right after that, right after the the first one, a
Speaker 1: second one, double execute. Look at Fox thirty five, our
Speaker 1: friends over there, like it's Rex Manning Dad, double execution day.
Speaker 1: They showed the gurney, this traps the man will die
Speaker 1: within an hour on the show. How's that for exciting?
Speaker 1: Or maybe he doesn't, Maybe there's some intervention that happens.
Speaker 1: Who are these people? James A. Duckett is person number
Speaker 1: one scheduled to be executed in less than an hour
Speaker 1: at Florida State Prison. Duckett sixty eight, a former police officer,
Speaker 1: was convicted and sentenced to death for the rape, strangulation,
Speaker 1: and drowning of an eleven year old in nineteen eight.
Speaker 5: It's supposed to be concerned about any noises he makes
Speaker 5: on the table, good rip.
Speaker 1: What if it hurts him? What if it hurts him
Speaker 1: on the way out. According to records, mccabee was out
Speaker 1: with a sixteen year old boy she knew on May eleventh,
Speaker 1: nineteen eighty seven. They went to a convenience store. Duckett
Speaker 1: was on patrol, question why the two were out past curfew,
Speaker 1: told the girl to get in his vehicle. They found
Speaker 1: her the next day in a lake, and you can
Speaker 1: imagine all the rest that happened there. The other man,
Speaker 1: the eighty year old Dominic Ochone Junior, scheduled to be
Speaker 1: executed at six pm today. He was convicted in nineteen
Speaker 1: eighty seven of first degree murder in the deaths of
Speaker 1: his ex girlfriend's parents, Raymond and Martha Artzner, in Pasco County,
Speaker 1: and was sentenced to death. The Florida Supreme Court denied
Speaker 1: post conviction relief and denied a request for stay of execution.
Speaker 1: So TikTok, folks.
Speaker 5: The reasons for the requests for stay what they said,
Speaker 5: I'm basically doing this guy a favor. Oh yeah, he
Speaker 5: suffers from heart and kidney disease and cannot shower and
Speaker 5: move on his own. Yeah, so it will be cruel
Speaker 5: and unusual. I don't think it'd be cruel and unusual
Speaker 5: to have him continue to not be able to shower
Speaker 5: and move on his own in prison.
Speaker 1: Just let him go go, I tell you not for nothing, folks.
Speaker 1: You know you've you've heard me talk about the death
Speaker 1: penalty before on the show. I happen to think these
Speaker 1: whole cruel and unusual things are. This is such a
Speaker 1: dumb argument. You're not going to convince normal ass people.
Speaker 1: Oh no, we shouldn't do these two executions because it's
Speaker 1: cruel and unusual. Like we used to light people on fire,
Speaker 1: all right, We used to tie them to one horse
Speaker 1: and another horse and hit the horses with whips and
Speaker 1: split their bodies in two. This is not cruel and unusual.
Speaker 1: It's literally the most humane way you could possibly do
Speaker 1: any of this. It's the same exact way that when
Speaker 1: people want to take themselves out that they choose to
Speaker 1: do it right like this, this is the process that
Speaker 1: they use. Now, I don't think that holds water. I
Speaker 1: don't think people really buy into that the cruel and
Speaker 1: unusual thing. I think they should double triple, quadruple down
Speaker 1: on saying, hey, even one innocent person is too many.
Speaker 1: That's the argument that works with me. Like the state
Speaker 1: executing just even one person that got it wrong even
Speaker 1: once is too many, so instead, you know, life in prison.
Speaker 1: But they always go with the cruel and unusual thing.
Speaker 1: I don't know if that affects you. Let us know,
Speaker 1: because they bird what happens when that juice goes in.
Speaker 1: We'll get you man. It's burning right through your veins.
Speaker 1: It's like like the guy you've seen the viral video.
Speaker 1: I think it's from one of those autism dating shows.
Speaker 1: Have you seen this? Oh no, I'll have to bring
Speaker 1: this up for you, not a weekend from from from
Speaker 1: the execution juice burning for your veins to the autism
Speaker 1: dating show because my scream reminds me of it. This
Speaker 1: is This is the clip going mega viral right now,
Speaker 1: six point seven million views. I think it's some autism
Speaker 1: dating show and the guy tries to show off for
Speaker 1: the autistic date. Victoria's it's got it all. She's very
Speaker 1: cool girl on sexy too. Victoria's it seems like she's
Speaker 1: up for gofall. And I really liked that about her.
Speaker 6: I appreciated that so like I wouldn't mind like sleeping
Speaker 6: with her.
Speaker 1: That is jappie Oproodiesia. Oh A'm getting so excited. So
Speaker 1: they're reading oysters and he's like, hey, you know he's
Speaker 1: already fired up and rolled. That's definitely working right now.
Speaker 1: I'll got big old bowder. But now he has to
Speaker 1: impress the girl during the day. I'm doing. What about you?
Speaker 1: I'm going good. Yeah, let me try some like the
Speaker 1: green sauce, try some green tabasco.
Speaker 10: Yah.
Speaker 1: Yeah, there he goes that green was boisey mmmm, speaking
Speaker 1: of spice. Here he goes, Okay, everybody in the world, no,
Speaker 1: I don't this is not like an autism defense. If
Speaker 1: that is what this is about. Okay, he's putting tabasco
Speaker 1: directly in his eyeball to impress the date. That's what
Speaker 1: gives me the vibes of that scream. Now what show
Speaker 1: is this? I have no idea. It's kind of the
Speaker 1: CLC that's going viral now.
Speaker 5: Because as far as I know, like the the producers
Speaker 5: and directors, especially the people on set for Love on
Speaker 5: the Spectrum are incredibly aware of the people the subjects
Speaker 5: that they're filming and like go out of their way
Speaker 5: to go the extra mile to make sure that they're
Speaker 5: comfortable and that you know, anything that happens during they
Speaker 5: take care show is not going to harm them or
Speaker 5: hurt their feelings overly in any way or that. And
Speaker 5: I'm like, I would think that at least the Love
Speaker 5: on the Spectrum people, one of them be like, maybe,
Speaker 5: but maybe you don't want to you don't want to
Speaker 5: do that, That's that's really going to hurt. And these
Speaker 5: guys are just like, let's somebody says, this was not
Speaker 5: Love on the Spectrum. It was ninety day ninety.
Speaker 1: Day autism or whatever it was. I don't know what
Speaker 1: it was, but something is happening here. He decided to
Speaker 1: do this.
Speaker 10: Oh yeah, did I channel that?
Speaker 1: I felt like, that's that's I was close to that.
Speaker 1: We were very close. It's wrong with people, man, Well
Speaker 1: that's cruel and unusual, that's cruel and inhumane. But he
Speaker 1: did it to himself, so I didn't care that much
Speaker 1: about it.
Speaker 5: Okay, Yeah, And the show is called TLC's Match Me Abroad,
Speaker 5: which follows Americans traveling overseas to find love with the
Speaker 5: help of international matchmakers. Good god, all right, we have
Speaker 5: emails to get into to get he's not acoustic at all.
Speaker 1: He's just an idiot. He's got no excuse doing Okay,
Speaker 1: all right, quick break. When we come back, we'll talk
Speaker 1: about why your phone wasn't working yesterday. Everybody started melting
Speaker 1: down over that and an unbelievable thing that happen in
Speaker 1: the classroom along with your emails.
Speaker 2: That's coming up next on the news Chunky.
Speaker 1: Somebody said during the break, I used to deliver food
Speaker 1: to kids' schools and prisons, and the prisons actually got
Speaker 1: better food than the kids' schools from like the Cisco
Speaker 1: deliveries that you would do that. That's when we've done
Speaker 1: something wrong. I think, like, I think that we've done
Speaker 1: something wrong when that is If that is the case,
Speaker 1: and you know who knows, let us know if you
Speaker 1: have more experience on that over at thenewsjunkie dot com.
Speaker 1: We'll get into your emails to kick things wide open
Speaker 1: here on the show. In just a bit. We got
Speaker 1: a lot of big bombshells dropping today. But first things first,
Speaker 1: I love to go over these stories because I absolutely
Speaker 1: detest what happens when you have these zero tolerance stupid
Speaker 1: stories like the one I'm about to tell you here.
Speaker 1: And this is a little guy who they like to
Speaker 1: say is some sort of rabble rouser. But I don't
Speaker 1: think six year old John Medina is all that bad. Okay,
Speaker 1: I don't think this little kid is all that bad.
Speaker 1: He's a Georgia first grader who has autism, and uh
Speaker 1: he's been suspended from his school. And I like whenever
Speaker 1: I hear these stories, I go, this is so stupid.
Speaker 1: This is not what this is about. I think they
Speaker 1: have a news report on this. I might be able
Speaker 1: to play here. Let's see this is from Atlanta News. First,
Speaker 1: let it's a little guy. Sometimes I want to Boots
Speaker 1: really went a mile.
Speaker 11: Gina doesn't worry about the instructions because.
Speaker 1: Luckily you can just stick things together and build whatever
Speaker 1: you want.
Speaker 11: A plant is already taking ship. It's a police truck,
Speaker 11: all right.
Speaker 1: So I see that you already believe that you know
Speaker 1: where this is going. You think he built some sort
Speaker 1: of leg gone. I saw the headline, so I know
Speaker 1: what he did. Uh. There's more to it, though. There's
Speaker 1: more to it. The story of this This little kid,
Speaker 1: he's six years old. He got suspended because he was
Speaker 1: sitting down for his lunch, right is the case. He's
Speaker 1: sitting down eating his lunch, and he's got a peanut
Speaker 1: butter and jelly sandwich, and he got suspended because he
Speaker 1: bit the sandwich into a shape of a gun, and
Speaker 1: his peanut butter and jelly sandwich was was left. And
Speaker 1: imagine like some rudimentary gun shape, you know, right, like
Speaker 1: you bite it out until it Leo man.
Speaker 5: He's on the spectrum, so he might have actually chiseled
Speaker 5: out a little trigger maybe like a like a magazine.
Speaker 5: And some of these they're very artistic.
Speaker 1: It would be like one of those scenes where you
Speaker 1: don't know if they're cutting through a cake or if
Speaker 1: it's the actual item, Like, damn, that kid made a
Speaker 1: really realistic peanut butter and jelly gun. This kid is.
Speaker 5: Which one does it shoot peanut butter and jelly. He's
Speaker 5: six years old.
Speaker 1: He was suspended after biting his sandwich into the shape
Speaker 1: of a gun and pointing it at a classmate. During lunch,
Speaker 1: according to his parents and school records. He says that
Speaker 1: and his family says this is part of a broader
Speaker 1: pattern of the district disciplining their son without adequately considering
Speaker 1: his disability. Now here's what they said. This kid has done.
Speaker 1: Like he's a bad little kid, all right. According to
Speaker 1: the school, listen to the Since twenty twenty three, the
Speaker 1: school is disciplined to this young boy thirty three times.
Speaker 1: He's been suspended fourteen times. Wow, all right, some of
Speaker 1: you are gonna lose track here and be like, oh,
Speaker 1: hold on, hold on, rest six years old. That's quite
Speaker 1: an accomplishment. Yeah, this kid's a monster over there. According
Speaker 1: to the school, he's been disciplined thirty three times, including
Speaker 1: fourteen suspensions. He was also suspended for pointing a water
Speaker 1: bottle at somebody while making gun noises, and was disciplined
Speaker 1: for drawing a pilgrim shooting a turkey. Now I'm going
Speaker 1: to go in hard on this last one here. A
Speaker 1: pilgrim shooting a turkey is just a realistic depiction of
Speaker 1: what happened, right, It's like a sure pilgrims they were
Speaker 1: running around at least according to our very dopey American
Speaker 1: history version of this. Sometimes the pilgrims got a turkey
Speaker 1: or too.
Speaker 5: Are they trying to teach a whitewashed version of how
Speaker 5: animals are you know, killed for consumption?
Speaker 1: In these schools? That takes guns out of the mix.
Speaker 1: Maybe they might be. But they said he pointed a
Speaker 1: water bottle, somebody making gun noises, disciplined for drawing a
Speaker 1: pilgrim shooting the turkey. And then he had a sandwich
Speaker 1: suspension where he bit his peanut butter and jelly sandwich
Speaker 1: into this shape of a gun. Now, I'll tell you,
Speaker 1: at face value, thirty three disciplinary incidents and fourteen suspension
Speaker 1: sounds quite bad. It does not sound great, right, is
Speaker 1: John's mom?
Speaker 12: He just has a fascination with it by just using
Speaker 12: his mind to build and he doesn't even follow the box.
Speaker 11: I think we should build the house. John is on
Speaker 11: the autism spec He sometimes struggles with social norms.
Speaker 12: For example, went to a funeral and stood up and
Speaker 12: started clapping and saying encore, Encore.
Speaker 1: Okay, hold on your kid went to a funeral and
Speaker 1: started clapping and requesting an encore and requesting an encore?
Speaker 1: Is there a point here? I asked this to you,
Speaker 1: And I want to ask this specifically to parents who
Speaker 1: might have autistic children who are listening to the sound
Speaker 1: of my voice right now. I mean, this, is there
Speaker 1: a point where you should like lean into the individuality
Speaker 1: and uniqueness of your your child, certainly through the lens
Speaker 1: of them being autistic, and then a point where you
Speaker 1: should be like, no, dude, even if you're not going,
Speaker 1: even if you're like the most autistic autist in the
Speaker 1: autism world, please don't clap at somebody's funeral. I mean
Speaker 1: and say, Encore, I think that the yeah, you shouldn't
Speaker 1: be able to just I mean, maybe she'd had no
Speaker 1: thought in her mind that her kid could possibly stand
Speaker 1: up and start clapping and requesting an on court a funeral,
Speaker 1: Like maybe it's just something they didn't plan for. Yeah,
Speaker 1: because at some point, like yes, you're you're teaching them
Speaker 1: to live in the situation. But I still think it's
Speaker 1: like okay to be like, hey, can you be a
Speaker 1: little less acoustic today. You have to still keep to
Speaker 1: teach your autistic kids' social norms, now, I think that's
Speaker 1: very important. Actually, you got to go like, hey, you
Speaker 1: naturally are not going to behave this way, so let
Speaker 1: me make sure I put up you know, for for
Speaker 1: these kids. You gotta put up some roadblocks.
Speaker 5: I think, you know, I think, don't they try to
Speaker 5: teach people on the spectrum stuff that it comes less
Speaker 5: natural to them, like eye contact, stuff like that, to
Speaker 5: try and you know, have them succeed with, you know,
Speaker 5: socially if they're on a functioning side of the spectrum.
Speaker 1: I agree, yes, I mean water Boys says, this kid
Speaker 1: is either amazing he's going to be tossing cats in
Speaker 1: the microwave soon. It could be true. Let's see, though, what.
Speaker 8: Else this is a three wheeler.
Speaker 11: Well, his brain helps him solve problems others may not see.
Speaker 11: It can sometimes create problems in the classroom. According to
Speaker 11: school records, administrators that Sarah Harp Mentor Elementary in Fayette
Speaker 11: County have issued more than two dozen disciplinary reactions, thirty
Speaker 11: three some for violent behavior, like when he kicked and
Speaker 11: punched another student.
Speaker 1: All right, we can all agree unacceptable. They should never
Speaker 1: be touching other kids. In fact, if he does this repeatedly,
Speaker 1: just be should be yanked out of school or put
Speaker 1: in a program where he's not around the other kids
Speaker 1: at all, because can't risk the other kids being injured
Speaker 1: as a result of this kid doing bathback recess.
Speaker 11: In other cases, though his parents view, the school did
Speaker 11: not take his disability into consideration.
Speaker 1: It's a fancy report.
Speaker 11: Today They got a call from the school because it's
Speaker 11: a problem with a sandwich.
Speaker 12: That phone call was during lunch. John took his sandwich
Speaker 12: bit it into the shape of a gun.
Speaker 8: Sandwich.
Speaker 1: No, that's not the because this is this is not
Speaker 1: a peanut butter and jelly sandwich. Is a stock sandwich. Yeah,
Speaker 1: this is a stock sandwich, classic stock sandwich. Bunch of phonies.
Speaker 1: You didn't think we would notice that this was a
Speaker 1: stock sandwich, right, this is not a peanut butter and
Speaker 1: jelly sandwich unless that detail was wrong.
Speaker 12: And aimed it at appear and made gun sounds. And
Speaker 12: they informed me over that phone call that he was
Speaker 12: getting suspended for it, and I was just caught up
Speaker 12: in the moment.
Speaker 1: You're just like baffled, all right, I mean, there's a
Speaker 1: there's an interesting thing going on here, and it's it's
Speaker 1: almost on the level of a pick a side where
Speaker 1: you go, is the mother wrong because the mother has
Speaker 1: like really high spectations of the school. The mother's like, hey,
Speaker 1: my child have disrupted things thirty three times and was
Speaker 1: even like kind of violent with some of the other kids,
Speaker 1: and is a problem on the regular, it appears. But
Speaker 1: here's how I feel about this. And then the schools like, no,
Speaker 1: your kid is routinely acting up and causing issues. I
Speaker 1: think the going after him for making a peanut butter
Speaker 1: and jelly sandwich in the shape of a gun thing
Speaker 1: is pretty dumb. But also the mom seems to be
Speaker 1: kind of like dismissing a lot of this too. It's like, this,
Speaker 1: this is a bit a tough one you've had.
Speaker 5: It seems like he's had other issues with gun related things.
Speaker 5: I mean, first of all, it seems like this kid
Speaker 5: really just either because he's had the disciplinary thing has
Speaker 5: made it more of a point for him, or maybe
Speaker 5: he just has a fascination with firearm related materials in general.
Speaker 1: Maybe, but this guy wants to make guns.
Speaker 5: He's doing water bottleguns, sandwich guns. Maybe we need to
Speaker 5: focus a little bit of our time here ongoing. Hey, buddy,
Speaker 5: the gun thing is really becoming a problem, so you
Speaker 5: gotta cut that out.
Speaker 1: She says she was caught off guard with the school
Speaker 1: called about this. The family then hired a special education
Speaker 1: director to represent them. During some meetings with the schools,
Speaker 1: they said they don't understand because he's autistic. Yeah, I
Speaker 1: mean the school says we're committed to meeting parents to
Speaker 1: try to work through these challenging situations. It's definitely a
Speaker 1: challenging situation. But the key thing that I think some
Speaker 1: of these people will miss on this, which I think
Speaker 1: is maybe the most important. You cannot have some kid
Speaker 1: disrupting all of the other kids in their learning experiences
Speaker 1: and say, well, no, he's unique and he's on the
Speaker 1: spectrum and is the reason why he's doing You cannot
Speaker 1: have that right. You have to tell your kid, no
Speaker 1: matter what their situation is. You have to tell them
Speaker 1: that you cannot physically touch the other kids. You have
Speaker 1: to tell them that you have to behave and follow
Speaker 1: the rules in class. You have to tell them they
Speaker 1: have to do these things. If they can't do these things,
Speaker 1: they need to be in a separate learning environment. They
Speaker 1: need to be away from these kids. But you can't
Speaker 1: just expect the school and all the other kids to
Speaker 1: do this. I'm a person who my entire lens on
Speaker 1: viewing the world is I want the most positive outcomes
Speaker 1: for the most people now in school. What we don't
Speaker 1: need is people disrupting and screwing up the outcomes of
Speaker 1: all the other kids in class, right. I remember so
Speaker 1: many times in classes that I was in in middle
Speaker 1: school in high school, there could be one kid in
Speaker 1: the class who could completely nuke a day of learning
Speaker 1: because they were acting up and they were causing issues. Yes,
Speaker 1: that's only sometimes that ruins the outcome for all thirty
Speaker 1: five other kids in the classroom. Some of my classrooms
Speaker 1: are big, you know, a lot of kids in the classroom,
Speaker 1: and then one kid can ruin it all. So in
Speaker 1: some way I want, like I want the school to
Speaker 1: not do these dumb zero tolerance things with a peanut
Speaker 1: butter and jelly gun. But I also I feel like
Speaker 1: the parent might need to accept a little more responsibility
Speaker 1: here and this kid might need to behave differently. This
Speaker 1: is a tough one for me. We'll see what people think.
Speaker 1: Let us know. Send your dispatches and your emails. Emails
Speaker 1: go to tips at the news Junkie dot com. T I. P.
Speaker 1: S at the Newsjunkie dot Com would.
Speaker 5: Be kind of hilarious if they were, you know, if
Speaker 5: they saw what was going on and they were coming to,
Speaker 5: uh discipline him for biting the thing into the shape
Speaker 5: of a gun, and he just takes one big bite
Speaker 5: and just ripped the rips the barrel off that gun.
Speaker 1: What what Now's Yeah, it's like, well, how do you know? Well,
Speaker 1: I guess you know, because he's holding the gun sandwich right,
Speaker 1: he was probably doing a couple of pews, yeah, bottle right, Yeah,
Speaker 1: he was known to do that. Give us your thoughts
Speaker 1: on what should happened with him. When we come back,
Speaker 1: I'll get into the story about why everybody's phones A
Speaker 1: lot of people's phones stopped working yesterday, the bizarre reason
Speaker 1: why I still got to get to those emails. To
Speaker 1: kick us off, we got a million ways to go today.
Speaker 1: We want you to come along for the ride. So
Speaker 1: join us because that's coming up next on the news.
Speaker 1: Junkie haven't even gotten into the opening emails yet. What
Speaker 1: the hell's going on today? I know a lot of
Speaker 1: things to fit in.
Speaker 5: Yeah, we're discussion on this gun stuff, this gun's at
Speaker 5: school stuff. A lot of people on the texting service
Speaker 5: weighing in.
Speaker 1: Just for the record, it's not we're not talking about
Speaker 1: like school shootings or anything. This young kid whose mother
Speaker 1: says he's autistic. He chewed his peanut butter and jelly
Speaker 1: sandwich into the shape of a gun and that got
Speaker 1: him in trouble, and that was part of a larger
Speaker 1: spree of trouble. He had been in like thirty three
Speaker 1: different disciplinary incidents. What are they saying on the texting serch.
Speaker 5: This one person says, my son pretended a calculator was
Speaker 5: a gun and got suspended and he didn't even point
Speaker 5: it at anybody. Really, how do you even pretend to
Speaker 5: calculate there's a gun.
Speaker 1: It's so crazy because like there was that one kid
Speaker 1: who shot his teacher. And uh though, like at some schools,
Speaker 1: if a kid holds up a phone or a calculator
Speaker 1: like a fake gun, they dive shot. You know, YouTube's
Speaker 1: gonna get me again, I hope not. They dive on
Speaker 1: the kid in the middle of the lunch room and
Speaker 1: arrest him with seventy five cops, and you know, the
Speaker 1: SWAT team comes in and they go, well, put down
Speaker 1: the peanut butter and jelly sandwich, and they freak out
Speaker 1: and they go nuts, right, and they go full zero
Speaker 1: tolerance on this stuff. And at other schools you have
Speaker 1: that little kid who brought the gun to school. Every
Speaker 1: kid at school was talking about how he had a
Speaker 1: gun and he had a gun in his backpack, and
Speaker 1: the administrators were like, no, don't search its back back
Speaker 1: he doesn't have a gun. And then the kid pulled
Speaker 1: out a gun and shot the teacher, and you go,
Speaker 1: we are really treating this differently at different locations here.
Speaker 1: There's not some consistency that I'd be looking for. Well,
Speaker 1: one of them.
Speaker 5: Seems like an autocar and overcorrect, Like it's like, hey,
Speaker 5: we've looked at all of the terrible tragedies that has
Speaker 5: happened have happened around schools around the United States, and
Speaker 5: it seems like we're raising a bunch of school shooters.
Speaker 5: So now we need to overcorrect and make sure that
Speaker 5: they don't even know what guns are true, you know,
Speaker 5: And that's I don't know that that's fully the answer,
Speaker 5: but also the situation you were talking about definitely was
Speaker 5: not the answer and got somebody shot.
Speaker 1: Right, Yeah, Kevin says, the education system is oh, hold on,
Speaker 1: it's right at the at the very end of it.
Speaker 1: A lot of comments coming out about this. The education
Speaker 1: system is over privatize them, please, says Kevin your thoughts
Speaker 1: to tips at the Newsjunkie dot com. If your phone
Speaker 1: went down yesterday you were unable to communicate with people,
Speaker 1: you were not alone. There was a lot of different
Speaker 1: people who were impacted by this. Tea Mobile had a
Speaker 1: massive outage yesterday at some point around five fifteen ps
Speaker 1: or so, and users started to go to a couple
Speaker 1: of websites like downdetector dot com and complain. There was
Speaker 1: about five five hundred comments on a Reddit post about this.
Speaker 1: Thousands and thousands of users said they couldn't use their
Speaker 1: T mobile providers like Mint Mobile, Boost Mobile, and a
Speaker 1: lot of others. What some people don't realize. You go,
Speaker 1: I don't have T Mobile? Why did my phone go down?
Speaker 1: And you go, what do you have? And it's like,
Speaker 1: I have Confederacy Mobile or I have Independence Mobile. L Right,
Speaker 1: you know what Federacy Mobile is. The deal is good. Okay,
Speaker 1: I wouldn't subscribe to it, but the deal was unbeatable,
Speaker 1: unlimited data for such a good deal. If you have
Speaker 1: one of those little offshoot companies, you know, like you're
Speaker 1: listening to a street preacher and he goes, make sure
Speaker 1: you sign up to our preach mobile. Phone. A lot
Speaker 1: of times those are done on the backs. Well, they
Speaker 1: just are done on the backs of one of the
Speaker 1: major providers. So it went down for a lot of
Speaker 1: people like that, and SOS mode was showing up on
Speaker 1: folks phone. T Mobile says, we have fully restored service
Speaker 1: for all customers and we sincerely apologize for the difficulties.
Speaker 1: We know that customers rely on us to stay connected
Speaker 1: to what matters most, and we appreciate their understanding as
Speaker 1: we prioritize resolution.
Speaker 7: Now.
Speaker 1: They didn't say exactly what was happening here. I know
Speaker 1: Xbox I think went down for a little bit yesterday too.
Speaker 1: They weren't clear about why it happened, but it was
Speaker 1: an issue with some folks out there. Noan badger says,
Speaker 1: I had to use my Verizon work phone to search
Speaker 1: if T Mobile was down. Tough time, I know. Yeah,
Speaker 1: you have to use your secondary phone. Yeah, that's a
Speaker 1: crazy crazy I never want to do that. It's definitely crazy.
Speaker 1: And that's as crazy as it gets. It doesn't get
Speaker 1: more craze.
Speaker 5: And now the headline is is T Mobile giving customers
Speaker 5: credits after Monday's outage?
Speaker 8: Oh?
Speaker 1: Shoot, was it T Mobile that wanted to pay everybody
Speaker 1: back that one time and people got mad that it
Speaker 1: wasn't enough or was that another one?
Speaker 5: And there's been different ones each time. It's hard to tell. Yeah,
Speaker 5: that outage I forgot.
Speaker 1: Okay, Tom emails Tips at the News Junki dot com
Speaker 1: and he says, this is about that wrong delivery story
Speaker 1: you had. This was a pick a side we do.
Speaker 1: Tom says, Hey, Sean, I heard on Friday show about
Speaker 1: the food delivery to the wrong house the door dash kid.
Speaker 1: That was like, I'm nineteen years old. You have pillars.
Speaker 1: You have pillars on your house. Although I feel the
Speaker 1: neighbor could have kept the food under Florida law even
Speaker 1: depriving somebody of their property as theft. Besides the question
Speaker 1: of interest, it's not really different than the old guy
Speaker 1: who mistakenly received the IRS check. He could have been
Speaker 1: charged if he didn't give it back, or if somebody
Speaker 1: accidentally drops their wallet on your lawn, you shouldn't be
Speaker 1: allowed to keep it. Take care, says Tom.
Speaker 3: Tom.
Speaker 1: The only thing I would I would take issue with
Speaker 1: with your statement is when it's a perishable or a
Speaker 1: food item or something that needs to be sanitary and
Speaker 1: safe for the end user, it is different. So, and
Speaker 1: in the case of like somebody dropping a wallet on
Speaker 1: your lawn, now that the wallet is very, very different
Speaker 1: as opposed to if somebody gets a delivery of food,
Speaker 1: the moment that person touches it, they're not going to
Speaker 1: give it to somebody else. Like imagine you're at a
Speaker 1: restaurant and they accidentally give you the wrong plate, but
Speaker 1: you touch the French fries. They're probably not going to
Speaker 1: just take those and put them over on the other
Speaker 1: person's you know, in front of the other person on
Speaker 1: their tape. Yeah, but is it the restaurant's right. Wouldn't
Speaker 1: it be the restaurants right to take that plate back
Speaker 1: and go, oh, sorry, we gave you the wrong thing,
Speaker 1: and then they get to take it in the back
Speaker 1: and throw it away, or if they just want to
Speaker 1: be dicks or eat it, if they want to go
Speaker 1: that route. But you know, they can't make you pay
Speaker 1: for it. They shouldn't make you pay for it, but
Speaker 1: they do. They are able to take it back. I
Speaker 1: would I would think they were allowed to just take
Speaker 1: it back and not serve it to somebody else. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I would think so, Or I would hope so. Tips
Speaker 1: at the news Junkie dot com. Davis says, this is
Speaker 1: from Davis. No need to keep me anonymous anymore. He
Speaker 1: was anonymous yesterday and then out of himself High Junkies,
Speaker 1: Davis says, following up from earlier, this was for see
Speaker 1: Lane's question about what I ended up doing for the
Speaker 1: tune up on my truck. I ultimately had to replace
Speaker 1: the fuel filter and the fuel pump. I also had
Speaker 1: to drop the entire gas tank, spray it out, and
Speaker 1: wipe down the inside to get all the contamination out.
Speaker 1: This was after his neighbor poured oil all over his stuff.
Speaker 1: After that, I cleaned out the rest of the fuel system.
Speaker 1: In the end, it made the truck run much smoother
Speaker 1: and got rid of most of the rough idle. I
Speaker 1: hope your day got better, see Lane, And I hope
Speaker 1: that your toilets stopped fighting back.
Speaker 5: Wiggle wiggle, pop pop. Did your day get better after? Yeah,
Speaker 5: my day was fine. It was just like that was
Speaker 5: a very jarring kind of uh. You know, it throws
Speaker 5: you off a little bit. It's a bad start.
Speaker 1: You want that. I wouldn't think that you wanted that.
Speaker 1: When we come back, we have a few things to
Speaker 1: work in here. We got to pick a side coming
Speaker 1: up and it's a pretty amazing one. I want to
Speaker 1: we have to say about this Brian Coberger. I don't
Speaker 1: know what's going on here, that this Brian Coberger scumbag.
Speaker 1: He kills these poor co ed girls who are in
Speaker 1: their their big shared house. He kills them all brutally,
Speaker 1: and then he says he's going to enter a guilty plea.
Speaker 1: And then they got a deal. He was off the
Speaker 1: table for the guilt. Please, yeah, he got a deal.
Speaker 1: They said, death penalty off the table. And then they
Speaker 1: did the brutal thing where all the family members come
Speaker 1: in and they you know, they say their peace. The
Speaker 1: family members give their information to try to impact sentencing
Speaker 1: or whatever the judge is going to do. The family
Speaker 1: members have to kind of relive those horrible moments and
Speaker 1: they get very very emotional as they stare down the
Speaker 1: person who killed their loved one. And they did all
Speaker 1: of that, and then they all left the court room
Speaker 1: and it was like, okay, this is done, you know,
Speaker 1: we're all done here. And now he's like, nah, change
Speaker 1: my mind. I think that I'm going to change my
Speaker 1: plea here and I'm gonna go with not guilty. Now
Speaker 1: I've never heard of this, but I guess that's what
Speaker 1: they're doing. So we'll look into how this could possibly happen.
Speaker 1: And I've got the actual note from him that he wrote,
Speaker 1: so we'll see what he says. A new video from
Speaker 1: Nancy Guthrie that dropped a tornado, and a whole lot
Speaker 1: more coming up next on the news, Chunkie Steel and
Speaker 1: be honest with me. Yeah, yeah, Do you have a
Speaker 1: long night last night? No, folks. He was trying to
Speaker 1: get ready for us to come back from breaking and
Speaker 1: he says in my headphones, he's like, all right, I
Speaker 1: have a great day. I went, you're going up, You're
Speaker 1: going up. You're good. It was gonna say, have a
Speaker 1: great day. I'm like, we have a lot of time
Speaker 1: left to no.
Speaker 10: No, I just no.
Speaker 1: Last night I was fine. I took it easy. I
Speaker 1: actually been stuffy and sneezy and that's been annoying. But
Speaker 1: right before I said that to you, I didn't realize, like,
Speaker 1: my wife is off all week, except apparently today she's
Speaker 1: has has something she's got to go in for, Like
Speaker 1: there's like an intern presentation because the intern season is
Speaker 1: coming to a close or something like that. And I
Speaker 1: was like, all right, cool, I'll see you after that.
Speaker 1: And she's like, well, then there's a dinner after that.
Speaker 1: I was like, oh, oh, all right, see after that. No,
Speaker 1: We're going to Level ninety nine. After that. I'm like, well,
Speaker 1: have fun, have a good time at level ninety nine.
Speaker 1: Are you lonely? You want like if we could have
Speaker 1: like a listener get together at your house? I mean no,
Speaker 1: I lonely. I'm jealous that she gets to go check out.
Speaker 1: Do you know what Level ninety nine is. Yeah, it's
Speaker 1: a new like sort of adult gaming place. I think
Speaker 1: how adults it is.
Speaker 5: I mean there are adults like options as far as
Speaker 5: like bars and stuff, but I think it's it's where
Speaker 5: Disney Quest used to be. And like when that place
Speaker 5: first opened, like that was a hot ticket because everything
Speaker 5: was so high tech and cool and there was VR
Speaker 5: stuff and you could build your own roller coaster on
Speaker 5: a computer and then ride it in a big simulator,
Speaker 5: and like this is kind of the new version of that.
Speaker 1: Yeah, there's rooms where you have to like not fall
Speaker 1: on the floor and touch the lava, and there's rooms
Speaker 1: that are like kind of American Ninja warrior esque, and
Speaker 1: there there's a bunch of cool stuff about that. If
Speaker 1: any of you ever come to town, you should you
Speaker 1: should try that out. Or if you'r Sealand's wife, you
Speaker 1: get to do that tonight. Well he you know, just
Speaker 1: twiddles his thumb, absolutely, and a lot of thumb twiddling. Uh,
Speaker 1: just hangs out with Jackson or something. Spider Man Brand
Speaker 1: New Day is going to be explosively big this weeket.
Speaker 1: Already this was as of twenty four hours ago, already
Speaker 1: sixty million dollars in pre sale tickets at the box office.
Speaker 1: So like, if they didn't sell a single additional Spider
Speaker 1: Man ticket from now until the end of the weekend,
Speaker 1: Spider Man would have a sixty million dollar weekend. Right.
Speaker 1: There's some people suggest saying that this could possibly do
Speaker 1: eight hundred million dollars worldwide its first weekend, which is
Speaker 1: just short of the one point two billion that Avengers
Speaker 1: Endgame did. And it's just massive, man. But no matter
Speaker 1: what happens of the the person that stands to gain
Speaker 1: the most is Tom Holland. Tom Holland is about to
Speaker 1: beat himself at the box office. Oh that's right. He
Speaker 1: was in Avengers Endgame, right, No, he was in the Odyssey.
Speaker 1: He stars in the Odyssey. God, so he's he's at
Speaker 1: the top of the box office right now. And if
Speaker 1: this tracks like it looks like it might.
Speaker 5: If Spider Man A Brand New Day knocks the Odyssey
Speaker 5: off the top spot, well then Tom Holland will beat
Speaker 5: Tom Holland in the box office. And this is gonna
Speaker 5: work out swimmingly for Tom Holland. He is in the
Speaker 5: prime of his career right now.
Speaker 1: If that's the case, that's the Odyssey has done unbelievable
Speaker 1: in theaters. And now you've got the new Spider Man,
Speaker 1: Brand New Day movie coming out, and it shows people
Speaker 1: still have an audio. People sill have an appetite for
Speaker 1: for some of this stuff. Yeah, and his wife in
Speaker 1: frequent co stars and Daya appears in both films as well.
Speaker 1: Oh my god, so the Holland family is just coming
Speaker 1: up roses this summer. Holy cow, unbelievable. I always forget
Speaker 1: he has a British accent until I hear him talking
Speaker 1: mm hmm, and then when I hear him start yapping,
Speaker 1: I'm like, oh, that's right. Oh this guy. He seems
Speaker 1: like a nice dude though, So the movie's gonna be
Speaker 1: really really big this weekend. Some people Insider, suggesting it
Speaker 1: could do over two hundred million domestically in just the
Speaker 1: United States.
Speaker 5: That would be massive if true. I don't know if
Speaker 5: I've watched any of his Spider Man movies.
Speaker 1: I don't. I think I've seen a bunch of the
Speaker 1: Spider Man movies, but none of them really stick with me,
Speaker 1: Like I know this was this one.
Speaker 6: I know.
Speaker 1: I think Andrew Garfield is kind of in the lame
Speaker 1: as Spider Man. Right, isn't he a Spider Man? I
Speaker 1: don't know, man, I was. I was watching the Toby McGuire, right,
Speaker 1: was that that? Yeah, and him be Spider Man? And
Speaker 1: I watched those theater you thought he was the worst. Yeah,
Speaker 1: he's nerdy, He's too nerdy to be Spider Man. Peter
Speaker 1: Parker is a nerd. Peter Parker is kind of nerdy,
Speaker 1: but then also a little bit cool too, at least
Speaker 1: in my mind the way I picture him, He's like
Speaker 1: a little nerdy, little cool ish, kind of more nerdy
Speaker 1: than cool, I guess, but I don't know. Toby McGuire
Speaker 1: is too goofy, like he always is. Is the other
Speaker 1: guy who's in love with some girl in the movie,
Speaker 1: but the girl doesn't actually end up wanting to be
Speaker 1: with him because he's you know that, that's the guy.
Speaker 1: He's always like the cut guy. He's always on the
Speaker 1: on the on the chair in the corner of the
Speaker 1: hotel room of the other couple's at who's playing Mary
Speaker 1: Jane these days? Oh, I don't know. Is it Zendiah
Speaker 1: Mary Jane actress? You know, maybe it's her. I think
Speaker 1: it might be. I think you're right, I think it
Speaker 1: might be her. In one of the movies they used
Speaker 1: like like a like a hotter old lady. No, okay,
Speaker 1: yeah Mary Jane, Yeah, yeah, that's right. Yeah. So it's
Speaker 1: gonna be explosively big this weekend. Let us know if
Speaker 1: you're gonna go out to see that. Some of the
Speaker 1: early reviews are just trickling in right now. Could make
Speaker 1: over two hundred million dollars if things go really, really well.
Speaker 1: For when you say hotter old lady, are you talking
Speaker 1: about them casting Marissa to May as Aunt May? That's
Speaker 1: what it was when they put Marissa Tomey in there,
Speaker 1: And it was such a shift from the Aunt May
Speaker 1: of the Toby Maguire days, where it was this old,
Speaker 1: frail lady and oh I miss your uncle Ben and
Speaker 1: then they have Marissa to May, who's hot. Yeah. They
Speaker 1: they brought Marissa to May in and just kind of,
Speaker 1: you know, nonchalantly, she's like, you know, I'm just I'm
Speaker 1: just your aunt here. I'm I'm Mary Jane or whatever she's. Yeah,
Speaker 1: she's the aunt, right, Aunt May. She's Aunt May in
Speaker 1: that world, and so does she play that in this too, Yes,
Speaker 1: so she'll be the aunt. And then you got you
Speaker 1: got him playing Spider Man role and then Zendaya playing
Speaker 1: the Mary Jane role and they're all just counting cash.
Speaker 1: Why not?
Speaker 7: Why not?
Speaker 1: Jesus? Yeah, Marisa Tomey, she popped in there and was like,
Speaker 1: there were some people going, is this what Spider Man's
Speaker 1: aunt looks like? Not always now they'll change was an
Speaker 1: old lady before. Yeah, they'll they'll mix them up. You know,
Speaker 1: there's like and then sometimes there'll be somebody who was
Speaker 1: like a good looking character and then they'll change them
Speaker 1: to not a good looking character.
Speaker 5: I just don't I don't know who who was in
Speaker 5: the boardroom going, yeah, guys, here's the thing. I'm I'm
Speaker 5: down with the Spider Man stuff at all, but Aunt
Speaker 5: May is not hot enough.
Speaker 1: Ramp it up. They went the other way with U.
Speaker 1: I used to love when I was young, the Teenage
Speaker 1: Mutant Ninja Turtles cartoons and even the first couple of
Speaker 1: movies from that, and uh April April Old Lady, April O'Neil,
Speaker 1: the reporter lady, and the cartoons was always like kind
Speaker 1: of this, you know, cute cartoon girl. And then they
Speaker 1: made her in some of the movies like, you know,
Speaker 1: an attractive woman, and I think they changed her. I
Speaker 1: think they uglified her at some point point, which I
Speaker 1: don't understand that strategy, but I guess that's that's Yeah,
Speaker 1: we'll see what happens. It's bold. Let's see here. Anonymous
Speaker 1: emails the show tips at the news Junkie dot com.
Speaker 1: Please keep me anonymous. Hi, Sean and Sea lanbe Well,
Speaker 1: don't repeat your name. Later, I have an update in
Speaker 1: the Nolan Wells case. Oh well, like you're part of
Speaker 1: it or something. If you guys don't know what's going
Speaker 1: on here. Actually he describes it a little bit, so
Speaker 1: I'll let him do this. This was the kid in
Speaker 1: Ocean Springs, Mississippi, who died out on Horn Island with
Speaker 1: his friends on July fourth, that y'all covered a few
Speaker 1: weeks back. I'll stop him here off the coast of Mississippi.
Speaker 1: Apparently there's this small little island called Horn Island, and
Speaker 1: some of the younger people will take their boats out
Speaker 1: off the coast and go to this little Horn Island
Speaker 1: and they'll party out there, especially on weekends like July fourth.
Speaker 1: And this young kid, Nolan Wells maybe eighteen I think
Speaker 1: eighteen ors ish, he went out with his friends on
Speaker 1: July fourth weekend to this Horn Island off the coast
Speaker 1: of Mississippi and u then they he went missing, and
Speaker 1: then they found him dead a couple of days later.
Speaker 1: And his family has seemingly insisted that something the farious
Speaker 1: happened here and that these kids that were his friends
Speaker 1: that brought him out there actually killed him and were
Speaker 1: covering up information. And they hired Ben Krump, the attorney
Speaker 1: who honestly, I mean this guy like, I see him
Speaker 1: getting into more and more of these cases where it
Speaker 1: looks to me and looking at all the evidence available
Speaker 1: like there wasn't anything nefarious at all going on here,
Speaker 1: it looks to me what is likely that I'll get
Speaker 1: to that in a second. I'll get into what likely
Speaker 1: is the case in a second, but let him finish,
Speaker 1: he said. I don't know if he covered the update yet,
Speaker 1: but evidently the kids called the DMR because their boat
Speaker 1: was sinking due to a bilge pump malfunctioning. The DMR
Speaker 1: recently released audio of the call. A sound expert engineered
Speaker 1: the call and cleaned it up and heard background exchanges
Speaker 1: between the kids. The claim being made here is that
Speaker 1: the boys are discussing Nolan's death in the background of
Speaker 1: the audio. But to me, as somebody who grew up
Speaker 1: around boats, the audio seems fairly innocuous what I would
Speaker 1: expect from drunken teenagers. Take a listen for yourselves, he says,
Speaker 1: can we cover it up?
Speaker 10: Yeah?
Speaker 1: I thought about that. They said, you killed him. He's
Speaker 1: already dead? Is he dead? I don't know if this
Speaker 1: audio is real at all. They just linked to like
Speaker 1: an Instagram post. I know that I saw the video
Speaker 1: or like a clip from when they were getting rescued
Speaker 1: in their boat and he was not on the boat.
Speaker 1: I know that there's somebody who afterwards said he was
Speaker 1: still on Horn Island after the boat left. I know
Speaker 1: that there is a lot of evidence to suggest he
Speaker 1: was hanging out with some unnamed woman afterwards, and that
Speaker 1: was drinking heavily while he was on the island, and
Speaker 1: it seems like what happened was he got drunk and
Speaker 1: somehow ended up drowning. That's what likely happened to Nolan Wells.
Speaker 1: But his family doesn't want to believe that. I don't
Speaker 1: blame them for not wanting to believe that. When your
Speaker 1: loved one, when a die at a young age like this,
Speaker 1: you know, you always want to look as far into
Speaker 1: it as you can, and the family deserves as many
Speaker 1: answers as they want. But other people like Ben Crump
Speaker 1: I don't think should be blowing smoke up the backside
Speaker 1: of people who are in these situations. Yeah, to get
Speaker 1: false hope and to stir up racial animis like what
Speaker 1: happened here is actually a great representation of where younger
Speaker 1: people are in twenty twenty six. Younger people don't care
Speaker 1: about the race of their friends, probably less so than
Speaker 1: they ever have in the history of the United States
Speaker 1: of America. They want to hang out with people that
Speaker 1: they think is cool, whether they think are cool and fun,
Speaker 1: and that they enjoy spending time with. And they were
Speaker 1: a bunch of white kids that were hanging out with
Speaker 1: his young black kid and they were friends. They were
Speaker 1: all friends with each other, right, So really, when I
Speaker 1: look at that, I see something completely different. But Ben
Speaker 1: Crump can see like Nefarity and the bad guy and
Speaker 1: the white people that were killing the young black kids.
Speaker 1: Sometimes things just happen and you got to wait until
Speaker 1: all the information comes in and see what happens here.
Speaker 1: But I don't buy the grand conspiracy. I saw miss
Speaker 1: Rachel who has just seems to becoming more unhinged with
Speaker 1: her activism. I don't care what she does for like
Speaker 1: little kids shows and stuff, but she was like, this
Speaker 1: would never have happened if Nolan Wells was white. I'm
Speaker 1: going what prey tell would be different. There is a
Speaker 1: massive investigation ongoing. There has been nationwide and global attention
Speaker 1: shined on this case. The authorities have been bending over
Speaker 1: backwards to placate the family and try to do everything
Speaker 1: they can to make sure the public is at ease
Speaker 1: with what's going on in this investigation. People have been
Speaker 1: there's been a huge outpouring of support from people who
Speaker 1: have been watching this. People have been trying to give
Speaker 1: up every little photograph and video that they possibly can
Speaker 1: to give you the full picture of what happened to
Speaker 1: your son, and I feel very very bad that this
Speaker 1: happened to you, and I feel very very bad that
Speaker 1: your son died. But it definitely does appear that it
Speaker 1: was just an accident, right and and like miss Rachel
Speaker 1: comes in and goes, this wouldn't have happened if he
Speaker 1: was white. I'm like, what would be different? What it
Speaker 1: all would be? What has gone wrong here? This craziness,
Speaker 1: this is very just bizarre behavior. Instead of looking at
Speaker 1: this and going this is a travesty. Sucks that this
Speaker 1: happened for this family. Let's get all the information. But
Speaker 1: right now, it certainly looks like this might have just
Speaker 1: been a tragic accident. That's how I feel about it, emailer.
Speaker 1: But I appreciate your insight onto that audio, and I
Speaker 1: see other people talking about that audio, so it looks
Speaker 1: like that might be legit.
Speaker 7: All right.
Speaker 1: The comment I thought about it was that it was
Speaker 1: hard to make out anything from the audio, but I.
Speaker 8: Have to look to it.
Speaker 1: It was kind of should we listen to it? I can,
Speaker 1: I can bring it up. Hang on, let me see
Speaker 1: the person who emailed about this. I'll try to get
Speaker 1: this on. Is this it No, that's not it. I
Speaker 1: don't know where they were. I'll have to look up
Speaker 1: the Nolan Wells guy's name here, No, Nolan Well's case
Speaker 1: updates and feedback. Here's the real is there cursing Sea
Speaker 1: Liane or No? I haven't heard it. Okay, I'll pop
Speaker 1: it up. Oh, this is somebody else playing it?
Speaker 13: Somebody Before I play this, I want to quickly explain
Speaker 13: what I did so before I play this, I want
Speaker 13: to quickly explain what I did so want on face
Speaker 13: on the screen, and why I chose to approach this
Speaker 13: audio the way that I did. As a professional audio engineer,
Speaker 13: with the experience in dialogue editing, dialogue clean up, sound design,
Speaker 13: and post production, I decided to work on that see
Speaker 13: to call using traditional audio processing techniques rather than relying
Speaker 13: on any AI voice separation or a How do.
Speaker 1: I fast forward? She says, you could fast forward to
Speaker 1: three twenty, but I don't know how to do that
Speaker 1: on an Instagram video. I mean peepawing out over here. Yeah,
Speaker 1: you're gonna have to like what I was supposed to do.
Speaker 1: I'm not going to see her for three minutes and
Speaker 1: forty seconds.
Speaker 5: But you blab send it to me and we can
Speaker 5: look at it later. I'll download the thing so it's
Speaker 5: in a format that you can you can scrap through.
Speaker 5: I'll tell you what we'll do. Maybe we'll put that
Speaker 5: injury duty. Because I want everybody to get the full
Speaker 5: picture of what happened. I'm not, you know, ever, trying
Speaker 5: to hide any kind of information from everybody. I want
Speaker 5: everybody to hear all the things that happened.
Speaker 1: I just think that that was not some grand racial thing,
Speaker 1: or they didn't kill their friend and cover it up,
Speaker 1: And it's just it's kind of scummy that people get
Speaker 1: involved and inflame things more than they need to. So
Speaker 1: that's how I feel about it. All right, quick break,
Speaker 1: when we come back, we'll get to this tornado that
Speaker 1: I was talking about. We'll get fired up for this
Speaker 1: big pick a side on the way. We got the
Speaker 1: hot sheet and much more, and it's all coming up
Speaker 1: next on the news Junkie. This is this is one
Speaker 1: of the weird stories of the day, honestly, but this
Speaker 1: is a true story. I guess I'll bring this up
Speaker 1: in front of me here. It happened in New Jersey.
Speaker 1: Hello to our friends in New Jersey, especially those at
Speaker 1: the YMCA camp where this all went down. Apparently thirteen
Speaker 1: children between the ages of ten and thirteen. I want
Speaker 1: you to remember back when you were just a young child,
Speaker 1: just between ten and thirteen. Apparently they ate chocolate edible
Speaker 1: that were laced with psilocybin mushrooms. So so one of
Speaker 1: the campers goes like, I've got chocolates, everybody, and they're
Speaker 1: handing them out to the eleven, twelve, thirteen year old kids.
Speaker 1: Everybody at the camp's like, ah, YMCA camp, Oh, let's
Speaker 1: eat these chocolates. And they eat it. Thirteen kids eat
Speaker 1: these chocolates and there's psilocybin mushrooms and they're like, you know,
Speaker 1: the mushrooms that make a trip out, and the kids
Speaker 1: start tripping out and it the headline is little baby
Speaker 1: zombies New Jersey. YMCA campers fed mash magic mushrooms lace
Speaker 1: edibles and this is the magic mushrooms. Growing up, I
Speaker 1: think that was older generation. Yeah, like the people my
Speaker 1: sister and her friends, they had a trend at that
Speaker 1: time of black light posters, and you'd go into their
Speaker 1: rooms and they would have, you know, the character from
Speaker 1: Alice in Wonderland, the smoking dude, and they would like
Speaker 1: have all this trippy stuff and they would say magic mushrooms. Man,
Speaker 1: I think that was I think that's a gen X thing,
Speaker 1: I believe. I think the gen X that often forgot
Speaker 1: about generation came up with the magic mushrooms thing. But
Speaker 1: maybe that goes back to this magic. Yeah, they are
Speaker 1: for these kids. They were, according to police report, and
Speaker 1: East Orange YMCA counselor noticed the camper that was handing
Speaker 1: out candy shortly after kids began complaining about feeling sick.
Speaker 1: One parent told The New York Times the affected children,
Speaker 1: who were evaluated and allowed to be picked up by
Speaker 1: their that they looked like little baby zombies. Are they
Speaker 1: get The New York Times story on this unbelievable if
Speaker 1: thirteen children accidentally consume edibles, Hang on, let me jump
Speaker 1: over the paywall on this thirteen children accidentally consume edibles,
Speaker 1: it says, at this YMCA summer camp in New Jersey.
Speaker 5: You think, if you're the counselor at this camp and
Speaker 5: all the kids are suddenly either high or just laughing
Speaker 5: a whole lot, are you going we need to get
Speaker 5: them all to the hospital right now?
Speaker 1: Or are you going ooh? This was kind of on
Speaker 1: me and I could get in big trouble. Let's just
Speaker 1: kind of all right, Let's let's end play time for now.
Speaker 1: Let's set up a nice quiet room and turn the
Speaker 1: lights down low and let them relax in there and
Speaker 1: wait this thing out. Thirteen children accidentally consume edibles at
Speaker 1: New Jersey YMCA summer camp. The YMCAs had a camper
Speaker 1: had handed them out without its knowledge. Apparent described the
Speaker 1: children as looking like little baby zombies. This says thirteen
Speaker 1: kids were sickened. Another camper at the summer program, who
Speaker 1: serves children ages ten to thirteen, shared the edibles with
Speaker 1: the children without the knowledge or consent to the YMCA.
Speaker 1: He said employees contact and emergency services and the police
Speaker 1: and parents of those affected. The campers were evaluated and
Speaker 1: released to their parents. Mister Gorap said the YMCA policy
Speaker 1: prohibited children from sharing food with other campers. The safety
Speaker 1: of every child in our care is our highest priority.
Speaker 1: I remember that being a rule back in YMCA camp
Speaker 1: where we couldn't share food. We shared food all the time,
Speaker 1: we bartered it. There weren't the access to the stuff
Speaker 1: like this wasn't as common though, Maybe so they didn't
Speaker 1: worry about that quite as much. Maybe so the only
Speaker 1: guests I have. The chocolate edibles were laced with magic mushrooms,
Speaker 1: According to news reports and a statement provided NBC and
Speaker 1: other news outlets, the East Orange Police Chief said detectives
Speaker 1: were conducting a thorough investigation to determine how this occurred
Speaker 1: and how these suspected edibles came into the possession of
Speaker 1: a juvenile, whether any criminal offenses were committed. Stannie Destiny,
Speaker 1: Oh Destiny with an a I never heard this from
Speaker 1: Dsta and y Destiny. Yasmina said she heard a little
Speaker 1: before noon about her eleven year old son that there
Speaker 1: was something wrong with him and he consumed edibles. He
Speaker 1: has a number of medical conditions, including cerebral palsy, epilepsy,
Speaker 1: and anxiety. She said. When she arrived at the YMCA,
Speaker 1: she found her son in near psychosis and shaking badly.
Speaker 1: Oh my, he was saying, I don't want to die.
Speaker 1: I don't want to die. The thirty one year old
Speaker 1: mother said in an interview, the other children, who are
Speaker 1: the other children who take the edibles looked very dehydrated
Speaker 1: and had white lips. She said it was the worst
Speaker 1: sight I've ever had to see. There was another kid
Speaker 1: whose blood pressure spiked after taking the edibles. When they
Speaker 1: brought him to the hospital, it was clear that he
Speaker 1: was actively hallucinating. He was gazing up at the ceiling
Speaker 1: and talking to himself. How strong were these chocolates. This
Speaker 1: is really a testament to the product here, I would think.
Speaker 5: Also, I mean, my kid, say chocolate will gaze up
Speaker 5: at the ceiling and talk to himself when when left.
Speaker 1: Who is on a cord? So I think that's that
Speaker 1: big of a deal. Oh, I did know a kid.
Speaker 1: I don't know if I've ever told this story before.
Speaker 1: I had some friends when I was younger, and their
Speaker 1: parents were the kind of parents who they like, grew
Speaker 1: marijuana plants in the backyard. They would openly smoke with
Speaker 1: their kids. The parents actually owned a hemp company, all right,
Speaker 1: and like, you know, this is this kid is his
Speaker 1: parents own this company where they make shirts and a
Speaker 1: pail out of hemp that have marijuana leaves on them.
Speaker 1: And at that time I was like, oh, this is
Speaker 1: this is kind of cool. And him and his brother
Speaker 1: went over to Amsterdam. I think we were like seventeen
Speaker 1: or so at this time. Him and his brother went
Speaker 1: over to Amsterdam and they went into one of the
Speaker 1: places over there and he tried trooms for the first time.
Speaker 1: I think his name is Ben, but I'm not sure.
Speaker 1: And he tries out these shrooms and his brother did too,
Speaker 1: and his probably was totally fine. But he came back
Speaker 1: and he was weird for a while. He came back
Speaker 1: because the parents that had this happened to with the
Speaker 1: Wye SI are saying, my kid is still acting strange
Speaker 1: after all these days. Ben came back from Amsterdam and
Speaker 1: he would just sit in his room and stare at
Speaker 1: the fan for for like weeks, like literally weeks. You
Speaker 1: just stare at his fan in the room.
Speaker 5: And that's so weird to me because it either seems
Speaker 5: like he got something different than what you would normally
Speaker 5: get when you think of getting shrooms, yeah, or or
Speaker 5: he just tried to pound of them all at once
Speaker 5: or I don't know, because I mean, you didn't get
Speaker 5: a lot.
Speaker 1: You've tried it. I've tried it, yeah, I was. There
Speaker 1: was not lasting effects, yeah, yeah for some of these
Speaker 1: people there were, especially this young kid and my friend.
Speaker 1: And then I remember he stayed in his room for
Speaker 1: a couple of weeks there to the fan almost all
Speaker 1: the time, and then he u he stops staring at
Speaker 1: the fan because he started reading these books he had
Speaker 1: that said every movie that won every award ever in
Speaker 1: the history of movies. And then finally when he started
Speaker 1: acting normal again, when we would talk about movies, he'd
Speaker 1: be like, oh, yeah, that movie won the Oscar for
Speaker 1: Best Picture in nineteen seventy six. But he developed some
Speaker 1: weird mushroom memory. He got some crazy ability where he
Speaker 1: remembered every movie that won every award in the history
Speaker 1: of movie awards. I mean like literally, like he'd be
Speaker 1: like Casablanca nineteen fifty two Best Picture whatever. He'd you know,
Speaker 1: every single movie at every single award. So all I
Speaker 1: could tell this woman at the YBCA with the young
Speaker 1: kid who ate too many magic mushrooms and the chocolate
Speaker 1: that was handed out to the kids is give him
Speaker 1: some sort of book and then just let him at it, right,
Speaker 1: something that back, a book about how to create AI
Speaker 1: or something something that will make him very, very wealthy
Speaker 1: down the road. But they said they looked like little
Speaker 1: zombies at this New Jersey YMC summer camp. Quite a
Speaker 1: scene there speaking of quite a scene in Appleton, Wisconsin
Speaker 1: and surrounding areas, just absolute destruction. As a tornado whip
Speaker 1: through that area. Afterwards, somebody driving through, I believe they said,
Speaker 1: I'll put this up on see it now so you
Speaker 1: can see the visual at your leisure. But I believe
Speaker 1: somebody said, like this used to be the heart of
Speaker 1: this neighborhood here, Like this used to be sort of
Speaker 1: like the downtown area, and now all these houses destroyed.
Speaker 1: There's a truck flipped upside down on the houses, and
Speaker 1: everything is just absolutely smashed up. Oh god, there's just
Speaker 1: no house escaped. It just destruction in this neighborhood. Power
Speaker 1: lines down everywhere, devastating. Yeah, unbelievable.
Speaker 5: So your house was not that bad off in this
Speaker 5: kind of destruction. Everything else around you is so screwed
Speaker 5: right now that I wouldn't want to be there anyway.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's tough. Destructive tornado touching down near Appleton, Wisconsin,
Speaker 1: leaving a trail of damage. Peak winds one hundred and
Speaker 1: eleven miles per hour or more. This was southwest of
Speaker 1: Green Bay. Toppled trees and power lines damaged, lots of stuff.
Speaker 1: One hundred, well four hundred thousand utility customers in Wisconsin
Speaker 1: and Illinois out of power afterwards. Some of those coming
Speaker 1: back online if you were affected, obviously absolutely thoughts with
Speaker 1: you and all the rest. But let me get a
Speaker 1: screenshot of this. There we go. I'll put this up
Speaker 1: on see it now, so when you get a chance,
Speaker 1: you can see what the damage from this tornado looked like.
Speaker 1: We're going to take a quick break and when we
Speaker 1: come back, we're going to do the hot sheet after that.
Speaker 1: We got a pick a side that's one of the
Speaker 1: better ones we've done in a while, in Jury Duty
Speaker 1: Sea Line censoring that audio from the boat that the
Speaker 1: emailer was talking about about the Nolan Wells case. And
Speaker 1: this was the beginning of what we have coming up
Speaker 1: in the second half of today's show. And that's all
Speaker 1: coming up next on the News Junkie. We'll get to
Speaker 1: the hot sheet in just a moment. Here, let's see
Speaker 1: I put that clip up of the tornado which was
Speaker 1: over a mile wide, I guess over on see it
Speaker 1: now on Theewsjunkie dot com. I have a one, one
Speaker 1: or two quick clips before we get into the hot sheet.
Speaker 1: Here's Trump in Michigan talking to a crowd at a
Speaker 1: General Motors facility. Let's see what he said. That's starting
Speaker 1: to go viral.
Speaker 8: Love Trump because I've done more for you than your parents. Okay,
Speaker 8: your parents are good, really low.
Speaker 1: Your parents that I can tell you, and they would
Speaker 1: agree with me wherever they may be, they would agree.
Speaker 8: All right.
Speaker 1: Trump has done more for you than your parents. He says,
Speaker 1: you can agree or disagree. Hit us up with an email.
Speaker 1: And then this clip, this just says me. Who I

Speaker 5: family of Old Dirty Bastard aka Russell Tyrone Jones.
Speaker 1: So now there's going to be O. D. B.
Speaker 5: Jones Way in Brooklyn, which I think this is it's
Speaker 5: kind of a rare occurrence that a street name would
Speaker 5: get so close to what some would say a bad word, like,
Speaker 5: you know, bastard is not not a word that we
Speaker 5: you know, usually let kids say a lot and there'll
Speaker 5: be some kid asking Mommy, what's O. D. B. Jones
Speaker 5: Way mean? And they'll have to be well, that's for
Speaker 5: Old Dirty Bastard Jones. Jones, who died of an over
Speaker 5: dose in two thousand and four, was born and raised
Speaker 5: in the Fort Green area of Brooklyn. The newly dedicated
Speaker 5: corner is directly in front of a famed mural of
Speaker 5: his nineteen ninety four debut soul album Return to the
Speaker 5: Thirty six Chambers, the Dirty Version. Now, there are other
Speaker 5: street names that are potentially offensive. Most of them are
Speaker 5: racially insensitive in some shape or form, like there's a
Speaker 5: lot of Redskin drive, or there's ones that honor Confederate
Speaker 5: generals and stuff where people would say maybe we shouldn't have,
Speaker 5: you know, Stonewall Jackson Road or Robert E.
Speaker 1: Lee Drive.
Speaker 5: But there is in Chattanooga, Tennessee, is a creek that
Speaker 5: that sucks you in like a river style what are
Speaker 5: you about to do? Called suck Creek Road, suck Creek,
Speaker 5: suck creek. It says suck historically refers to dangerous whirlpools
Speaker 5: or river currents rather than the modern insult like you suck.
Speaker 5: And then I guess in Idaho they still I don't
Speaker 5: know if it's officially or unofficially, but there's a creek
Speaker 5: that they call Bitch Creek, and so the roadway is called.
Speaker 1: Be this sequel to Shit's Creek and Bitch Creek and
Speaker 1: just redo the whole thing.
Speaker 5: The roadway itself is called State Highway thirty two, but
Speaker 5: I think most people just kind of know of it
Speaker 5: as Bitch Creek Road, or they go over the Bitch
Speaker 5: Creek Bridge. The odyssey they were talking about, you know,
Speaker 5: obviously it got leaked, but that doesn't matter because they're
Speaker 5: still printing money. And then Tom Holland's about to have
Speaker 5: the best summer ever him and his wife. But there
Speaker 5: is a writer who was not so impressed with the film,
Speaker 5: and they might know a thing or two about it.
Speaker 5: Because the classics professor whose translation of the Odyssey from
Speaker 5: the Greek poem like the most recent translation, Emily Wilson.
Speaker 5: She's a classical studies professor at the University of Pennsylvania.
Speaker 5: She wrote the twenty seventeen translation from Ancient Greek to
Speaker 5: English that inspired the twenty twenty six blockbuster. Yeah, she
Speaker 5: just had like terrible things to say about the movie.
Speaker 1: Whenever I see this stuff, I'm like, you know, what,
Speaker 1: what have you done?
Speaker 8: All right?
Speaker 1: Like I know that she did. I'm pretty sure that
Speaker 1: translation of the Odyssey was actually controversial in its own right.
Speaker 1: I remember when that came out that there was something
Speaker 1: to that. But the words that she had for this,
Speaker 1: I go, at what point have you made something that's
Speaker 1: so popular and successful that when somebody says it's this terrible,
Speaker 1: You're like, that's a shot on you and not not Christians.
Speaker 5: He was blaming Chris Nolan for the script. She said,
Speaker 5: none of the characters has convention motivation for the action
Speaker 5: to words, there are no sex scenes, and all of
Speaker 5: the food looks horrible.
Speaker 1: She said she was humbled that.
Speaker 5: No one cited her version of the first line of
Speaker 5: the poem, tell Me about a Complicated Man, but admitted
Speaker 5: she would be ashamed to have written any part of
Speaker 5: this script. Yet, she said, it's still the release of
Speaker 5: the film is the event to celebrate. Thanks to Nolan
Speaker 5: for doing his best to get the general public reading.
Speaker 1: Again. Well, thanks, but but how could you say I
Speaker 1: would be ashamed to have written any part of this script?
Speaker 1: What ashamed? It's one of the most successful movies in
Speaker 1: the history of the format.
Speaker 5: She's trying to go hot take say on this because
Speaker 5: everybody else is praising the movie, except for the small
Speaker 5: group of you know, wanna be squeaky wheels who are
Speaker 5: mad that there's not enough Greek people in it, or
Speaker 5: that the Helen of Troy was black or stupid stuff
Speaker 5: like that. But anyway, over to California, if you were
Speaker 5: at San Diego Comic Con over the weekend and you
Speaker 5: took pictures with somebody dress like Deadpool, there's a very
Speaker 5: good chance that you took pictures with Ryan Reynolds, because
Speaker 5: he's been the latest celebrity to kind of wear a disguise.
Speaker 5: You know, Comic CON's a perfect place to do this.
Speaker 5: Previously we had Walter White did it, but that's Ryan
Speaker 5: Criston wore like a kind of cheap looking Brian Cranston
Speaker 5: mask and just dressed up as Heisenberg and walked around
Speaker 5: and took pictures with people. And now one of the
Speaker 5: few places on the planet where they say, if you
Speaker 5: see a superhero walking around with a mask, it might
Speaker 5: actually be the superhero. Ryan Reynolds was super excited to
Speaker 5: get down on the floor and mingle amongst people. He said,
Speaker 5: no handlers, no security, no ropes.
Speaker 1: What a gift. Thanks to everyone I met who aren't
Speaker 1: only cosplaying but world building and also actual Sergeant Slaughter,
Speaker 1: which I guess is one of the pictures that he
Speaker 1: posted where he met Sergeant Slaughter. Okay, there's a woman
Speaker 1: going viral for attending an Usher concert. Usher's on tour
Speaker 1: with Chris Brown, and Usher does this thing that I
Speaker 1: always think, like, I know, there's plenty of people who
Speaker 1: would be excited to do this, so I don't know
Speaker 1: that it's something we need to get rid of, but
Speaker 1: it is always kind of awkward when he does the
Speaker 1: I'm gonna pull a female audience member on stage and
Speaker 1: give them a lap dance. A stranger whom I've never
Speaker 1: met before is going to get the Usher lap dance treatment.
Speaker 1: But the interaction turned unexpected between Usher and the audience
Speaker 1: members during a recent stop on the Stadium tour, when
Speaker 1: the woman seemed to be not into it, kind of
Speaker 1: shutting him down on stage. Is this the woman?
Speaker 7: This is her?
Speaker 1: Yeah, this is the brought her up on stage and
Speaker 1: he's like a grown ass man and she's much younger
Speaker 1: than him, so I guess he kind of like strips
Speaker 1: down a little bit, and he's trying to do like
Speaker 1: a sexy dance around her, trying to like almost kiss her,
Speaker 1: and I think she pulls away. She's like being kind
Speaker 1: of a gamer. But when he goes in a little further, yeah,
Speaker 1: she pulls backward.
Speaker 6: Uh huh.
Speaker 1: And then it didn't seem that bad. But his face
Speaker 1: is like, what she just pulled away from me? What
Speaker 1: the hell?
Speaker 5: Well, she says, she has a reason. She said, I
Speaker 5: am not here for you, Usher, I am here for Chris.
Speaker 5: I wanted Chris and Chris only I just wanted to
Speaker 5: get on stage so that I could get as close
Speaker 5: to Chris Brown as I could possibly get. Sorry, I
Speaker 5: really turned around his reputation, I guess so, and last,
Speaker 5: but not least, And I almost didn't do this. And
Speaker 5: then you you brought up the the sports commentators talking
Speaker 5: about their foot sees and there and their pedicures. But yeah, sure,
Speaker 5: there's there's a little bit of a drought in the
Speaker 5: sports news world, and uh so we have this, which
Speaker 5: I thought is a hilarious story. Obviously, baseball teams have
Speaker 5: a lot of work to do. They have a big
Speaker 5: schedule of a couple of hundred games a season that
Speaker 5: they have to do. So you would naturally kind of
Speaker 5: just learn over the years that if you're on a
Speaker 5: baseball team and you have to plan life events, you
Speaker 5: have to plan them outside of your season. And so
Speaker 5: multiple baseball players may have to only resort to those
Speaker 5: certain months where they can plan stuff like this where
Speaker 5: it would make sense. And now we have four players
Speaker 5: on the Minnesota Twins are getting married on the same
Speaker 5: day together. No, No, four separate players, four separate weddings.
Speaker 5: Minnesota Twins players Ryan Kreedler, Brooksley, Luke Kay and Cole Sands.
Speaker 5: They're all getting married on November fourteenth. Wow, players a
Speaker 5: couple of their agents overlap, and so the agents are
Speaker 5: having the wedding hop because they're like, I don't know
Speaker 5: how we're going to make it to all of these
Speaker 5: But the players credit the coincidence to their busy baseball schedule,
Speaker 5: saying like, hey, we've been booked up this whole time.
Speaker 5: November fourteenth is the only day we can get married.
Speaker 5: And so all four of those players will be throwing
Speaker 5: separate weddings right there in mid November, and congratulations mazel
Speaker 5: toof to all of them, and they'll be right back
Speaker 5: for the baseball field when when all that's over, when
Speaker 5: the honeymoon's are done and it's the opening day again,
Speaker 5: they'll be back on the twins. If you have a

Speaker 1: can we come back? We got to pick a side
Speaker 1: for you. I think this one's gonna get people fired up.
Speaker 1: Let's see how it goes. That's coming up next on
Speaker 1: the News Junkie. We've got this Nolan Wells audio clip.
Speaker 1: Will play that in jury duty and all of that
Speaker 1: stuff as we move forward on a busy show here
Speaker 1: on to share the show Tuesday. But right now, I
Speaker 1: think we all know what time it is. It's time
Speaker 1: for our latest pick aside version of it. Yeah, my
Speaker 1: own version. All right, I've got to pick a side
Speaker 1: for you. And here's what I know about this video.
Speaker 1: We're gonna learn a little bit together. I haven't watched
Speaker 1: the whole thing. Sea Land censored this. It's there's some
Speaker 1: guy who I guess all he did was walk down
Speaker 1: the streets of Minnesota with an American flag?
Speaker 2: Is that it or there?
Speaker 5: I didn't watch as much of it. I just kind
Speaker 5: of cleaned it up, and you know, we could learn
Speaker 5: when we get to it.
Speaker 12: All.
Speaker 1: Right, here we go, let's do this. Pick a side.
Speaker 1: This is a man who's walking through the streets of
Speaker 1: Minnesota with an American flag. Here we go. Yeah, I
Speaker 1: can't come down here. And it's like, observe who said that.
Speaker 1: I'm just saying, you're just saying what I'm just saying that,
Speaker 1: you're just saying what I just said.
Speaker 6: That come this far.
Speaker 1: Problem, that's what you're trying to do. Problem. I got
Speaker 1: a flag, bro, I got a flag. That's what I
Speaker 1: got a flag. It is a flag. Here. If I
Speaker 1: get shot over a flag, now looks bad on you.
Speaker 6: Everybody's so mad about an American flag?
Speaker 1: Does he have armor on two? I don't know. I mean,
Speaker 1: he literally is just walking around with an American flag.
Speaker 1: But maybe is he doing more to inflames things or what?
Speaker 1: Because if you are, if people are getting angry over
Speaker 1: just an American flag, that's pretty wild. But is there
Speaker 1: something I'm not noticing about out this? Yep, yep, he's ronning. Police.
Speaker 1: Call the police, call police, all right, he does have
Speaker 1: some sort of vest on ceiling drive. This hurts my heart, man.
Speaker 6: I can't even see here without feeling like I got
Speaker 6: a little much in the window of the lock my
Speaker 6: door because somebody walks by.
Speaker 8: It's a disgrace.
Speaker 6: No one can have kids safe down here, especially if
Speaker 6: you're white.
Speaker 1: I guess.
Speaker 8: It's a joke.
Speaker 1: What the fuck has this state come to? Minnesota?
Speaker 9: Right?
Speaker 6: I look around every damn like there's so much exposing
Speaker 6: and I can do This is a play. Play is
Speaker 6: for any content creator. I can't get to anything that
Speaker 6: I want to. There's so much what crime?
Speaker 1: Why is he crying? He is crying here at the end,
Speaker 1: and then this is somebody else just going over his video.
Speaker 1: I guess, Yeah, the rest of it is a guy
Speaker 1: that's just recapping it and making his own commentary on it. Okay,
Speaker 1: I can see that he's he's got a flag, right,
Speaker 1: He's got his flag here that he's bringing down the road,
Speaker 1: and there were people reacting. I can't see if there's
Speaker 1: anything like maybe would have something offensive on his shirt.
Speaker 5: No, well, I mean it's hard to tell because it
Speaker 5: looks like he's wearing some sort of you know, vest
Speaker 5: or armor or something he you know, I don't know
Speaker 5: if there's some of this that he has not included
Speaker 5: or edited out for whatever, but he does seem like
Speaker 5: he's just there to be a dick.
Speaker 1: I got different perspectives on this. Carlos says he's so
Speaker 1: full of it, and then Ananamo says he's not wrong.
Speaker 1: All he was doing was walking along holding a flag.
Speaker 1: It's sad, don I don't know if I'm missing something
Speaker 1: here Bart versus Bill Gates says, rage bait. That may
Speaker 1: be like if if Minnesota, Minneapolis in particular, is at
Speaker 1: some strange point inflection point where if you walk down
Speaker 1: the street with an American flag it triggers people into
Speaker 1: going crazy and just absolutely losing it. That's bizarre and
Speaker 1: should be pointed out. But I don't want to fall
Speaker 1: prey to this if there's not more to it. Somebody
Speaker 1: says he's trying to get clicks and likes. Yeah, but
Speaker 1: what what else is going on that would cause people
Speaker 1: to react? Because there were there were people following him around,
Speaker 1: and the one got pretty early on was following him around.
Speaker 1: The dude with like a four wheeler. This neighborhood does
Speaker 1: look like a disaster area. I don't know what the
Speaker 1: hell's going on around here. But then there was a
Speaker 1: different car that pulled up, this second car right here
Speaker 1: causing problems in my neighborhood. Bro, all right, but there
Speaker 1: has to be more to this, just because why would
Speaker 1: some these dudes, these black dudes in this car pull
Speaker 1: up to this guy and say you're causing problems in
Speaker 1: my neighborhood. I don't believe that it was just because
Speaker 1: he had an American flag. There might be neighborhoods where
Speaker 1: people get triggered by that. It's like already there might be,
Speaker 1: you know, some very very like extremist neighborhoods where people
Speaker 1: like the American flag is a symbol of and a
Speaker 1: bunch of terrible stuff. And that's that's bad if that's
Speaker 1: the case. But I think something else is missing here. Well,
Speaker 1: I googled his name because he's got his name on it.
Speaker 1: Zach X.
Speaker 5: That's him, and it says a Minnesota based right wing
Speaker 5: social media agitator and local political candidate. He's facing criminal
Speaker 5: assault charges and harassment orders. He was running in Uh
Speaker 5: he was, He says, it's running in a special primary
Speaker 5: election for the Saint Cloud City Council Ward four. That's
Speaker 5: Saint Cloud, Minnesota. Yeah, there was some stuff that happened
Speaker 5: at Fort Snelling. Fifth degree, fifth degrees, So I didn't
Speaker 5: know assault went to five degrees? Is that the degree assault?
Speaker 1: Well, if you get that far along, is that the
Speaker 1: worst assault is those that was going on.
Speaker 5: I thought usually the higher the number of degree, the
Speaker 5: lower of the thing is. But fifth degree assault sounds
Speaker 5: like I just flicked the guy. Somebody says when he's
Speaker 5: walking around yelling free Derek Chauvin. That's the problem is
Speaker 5: did he do that? Is there any proof that he
Speaker 5: did that? If he did, he didn't, he's not putting
Speaker 5: it in his own video.
Speaker 1: Bar Lovels love Us says, Sean, you have a keen
Speaker 1: sense for trolling videos, but I think they may have
Speaker 1: got you on this one. Nobody got anybody. I'm displaying
Speaker 1: the video and then I'm saying, I think the reaction
Speaker 1: from these people has to be over more than just
Speaker 1: an American flag, right, Like, like, I know there's a
Speaker 1: bunch of people in chat already. I just fundamentally disagree
Speaker 1: with it. Like, yeah, but because white supremacists walk with
Speaker 1: the American flag, that's ridiculous. You can have the most
Speaker 1: extremist people try to co opt something. It's our flag,
Speaker 1: it's the flag of the United States of America. If
Speaker 1: anybody is triggered by the American flag, they could kiss
Speaker 1: my ass. That's ridiculous.
Speaker 7: Right.
Speaker 1: I'm not falling for that for a second. But I'm
Speaker 1: also not falling for I don't believe these dudes were
Speaker 1: running around saying, are you causing trouble in my neighborhood
Speaker 1: over simply the American flag. There's no way that's the case.
Speaker 10: It didn't.
Speaker 1: They didn't even look like the type. Like if this
Speaker 1: was some neighborhood in Portland and you got a bunch
Speaker 1: of like pierced nose types and you know, purple haired
Speaker 1: ladies and all that, then I'd go, oh, those might
Speaker 1: be the people who would be triggered by the American flag.
Speaker 1: But not not these people that I'm seeing here. It's
Speaker 1: in the full video. I don't know. There's the video
Speaker 1: that I've seen getting some attention out there. There's just
Speaker 1: there's got to be more to it. Absolutely, it has
Speaker 1: to be more to that's the full video.
Speaker 5: I mean is does there exist a full video that
Speaker 5: he would post if that made him not you know,
Speaker 5: if it kind of countered his arguments here.
Speaker 1: I don't know. He's the one posting it. This visit,
Speaker 1: this video wasn't the whole one he posted. Arna send
Speaker 1: a link if you can. I mean, I don't want
Speaker 1: to play too much of it, but she's suggesting that
Speaker 1: he was walking around playing or screaming free Derek Chauvin.
Speaker 1: If you're saying that, if you don't know who that is,
Speaker 1: Derek Chauvin is the cop that you know put his
Speaker 1: knee on George Floyd's neck, And if he's going through Minnesota,
Speaker 1: Minneapolis and he's shouting out stuff like that, then it
Speaker 1: would be pretty clear that that's going to inflame people, right,
Speaker 1: no matter what, no matter what you think about that topic, like,
Speaker 1: that's obviously going to inflame people. But if you're saying
Speaker 1: that in getting a reaction, it's not gonna go as
Speaker 1: viral as Oh it's because of the American flag, right,
Speaker 1: That's that's what I don't believe in.
Speaker 5: He was arrested as he was a counter protester at
Speaker 5: a No Kings protest. Charges say, while counterprosting, counter protesting,
Speaker 5: and shouting Santa isn't real.
Speaker 1: He had his camera pointed toward a child. The child's
Speaker 1: father turned to push his phone away, and then he
Speaker 1: punched the man and gave him a broken nose, which
Speaker 1: will require surgery. He was arrested for not only the assault,
Speaker 1: but he was wearing that bulletproof vest, and if you
Speaker 1: wear the vest in commission of a felony, you get
Speaker 1: an additional charge. No way. Yeah, So this sounds to
Speaker 1: me like he's definitely stirring the pot and he's trying
Speaker 1: to be antagonistic, and then when when somebody this is,
Speaker 1: by the way, the worst form of social media content
Speaker 1: that happens right now. So am I pick aside, I'm
Speaker 1: picking anybody else other other than I pick the neighborhood. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I picked the neighborhood over this, because if you go
Speaker 1: around somebody's neighborhood and you're purposely like you're screaming out
Speaker 1: there's no Santa to little kids, which is messed up
Speaker 1: and obviously not true kids. Obviously this is not true.
Speaker 1: He's just trying to like make little kids cry and
Speaker 1: say that this this kind of stuff is true. Like,
Speaker 1: this is the behavior of an anti social loser. This
Speaker 1: is the behavior of somebody who is willing to, with
Speaker 1: no shame, be as nasty as possible to spark a
Speaker 1: reaction from somebody else, and then when that reaction comes
Speaker 1: around you saw pull. This is called a Mott and Bailey.
Speaker 1: I don't know if you guys have heard of this before,
Speaker 1: but in the world, I know what a mottin Bailey is.
Speaker 1: But please just remind everybody else for the world of
Speaker 1: like debate and argumentation and conversation, a Mott and Bailey
Speaker 1: it comes from a like a castle and a mott
Speaker 1: and bailey would be you are are doing something very
Speaker 1: very aggressive, but then you retreat to another point to
Speaker 1: make it look like that's what's causing the problem. So
Speaker 1: it's like the switcheroo if you.
Speaker 5: Basically to say that if this guy was going through
Speaker 5: the neighborhood with his American flag and screaming free Derek Chauvin,
Speaker 5: and then all the whole neighborhood wants to beat his ass.
Speaker 5: Now he goes, well, I can't hold my American bug.
Speaker 5: He exactly right.
Speaker 1: Yes, you you start with something that's over the top,
Speaker 1: mega controversial that gets everybody fired up, and that's your
Speaker 1: that's the bailey, right, this like mega controversial thing, and
Speaker 1: then the mot is the thing that's not controversial. In
Speaker 1: this case the American flag. And on a castle, a
Speaker 1: mot was like this high hill by the castle, and
Speaker 1: the bailey was this open lower courtyard area. So it's
Speaker 1: like a it's a trick. It's an argument trick where
Speaker 1: you you're doing something intense and controversial, but then you
Speaker 1: you kind of hide behind the fact. You're like, oh,
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna say this. Here's what I would say
Speaker 1: Another example for those of you who are like who
Speaker 1: are leaning right. Another example would be the Democratic Socialists
Speaker 1: of America, the DSA people. They sort of hide their
Speaker 1: power level and they'll be like, what is it so
Speaker 1: wrong to just want medicare for all? And you're like, no,
Speaker 1: of course that's not wrong. A medicare for all is
Speaker 1: a normal thing to ask for. Well, whether I agree
Speaker 1: with it or disagree with is another thing. But they're
Speaker 1: hiding the radicalness of their take behind. Oh no, I
Speaker 1: just want medical care for all. No, they don't. The
Speaker 1: people on that side want to tear down the entire
Speaker 1: imperial system, and they want to tear down America, and
Speaker 1: they want to shut down the Senate, and they want
Speaker 1: to get rid of the Supreme Court, and they want
Speaker 1: to completely upend society. In this case, if this guy's
Speaker 1: going around the neighborhood and shouting free Derek Chauvin and
Speaker 1: then saying, hey, they're mad at the American flag, you're lying.
Speaker 1: So you know, the side I pick is the neighborhood.
Speaker 1: I think we all probably do, but maybe you don't.
Speaker 1: Maybe you pick the flag guy. Let us know what
Speaker 1: you think. I picked a really nice car that he
Speaker 1: was afraid of that's the side that I'm on.
Speaker 7: What was that?
Speaker 14: I don't know.
Speaker 1: It looked nice though, like a Rolls Royce or something.
Speaker 1: They're like something fancy. Give us your thoughts on which
Speaker 1: side you pick. Let us know over at the Newsjunkie
Speaker 1: dot com. Okay, let's see a couple of things. Somebody
Speaker 1: posted this. You know, I don't know if you've heard
Speaker 1: about this or not, but this has gone megaviral all
Speaker 1: over a bunch of social platforms, a lot of attention
Speaker 1: on the grip. This is some guy who posted, if
Speaker 1: your iPhone has been hot, like physically, if you've been
Speaker 1: touching your iPhone it bay man, this thing is it's
Speaker 1: getting hot and been dying fast since late June. It's
Speaker 1: not your battery, it's update twenty six point five point two.
Speaker 1: Here's how to fix it without waiting for Apple. And
Speaker 1: the claim is that twenty six point five point two
Speaker 1: landed on iPhones on June twenty ninth, and now it's
Speaker 1: draining people's batteries and overheating their phones.
Speaker 5: Is the claim that this is another one of Apple's
Speaker 5: like ways of you know, updating the phone to make
Speaker 5: the battery drain faster. So that you need to get
Speaker 5: a new phone, and this is and we're going to
Speaker 5: just never upgrade our software. Or is it like, hey,
Speaker 5: this is a bug that's happening right now. They're gonna
Speaker 5: fix it. But in the meantime, here's how you can
Speaker 5: fix it.
Speaker 1: Maybe it says every update makes your phone re scan
Speaker 1: every file and phone to rebuild its index, spiking heat
Speaker 1: and drain for a few days. For most people, it
Speaker 1: never settles because the settings below it are draining. On
Speaker 1: top of that, you got to kill the background auto refreshed,
Speaker 1: turn off Apple Intelligence, fix your location trafficking. There's like,
Speaker 1: oh my god, it's like a six part list that
Speaker 1: they said, if it's still hot after three days, the
Speaker 1: reindexing should finish within seventy two hours. Help it along.
Speaker 1: So I have not had this happen, but I don't
Speaker 1: even know if I have this version. There's enough of
Speaker 1: you out there listening right now, let us know if
Speaker 1: you've had this as your iPhone been actually physically hot
Speaker 1: and then the battery been dying fast. Here's the proble way, Jim,
Speaker 1: where's this guy sending this tweet from? Because I have
Speaker 1: not noticed my phone to be physically hot except in days,
Speaker 1: you know, on days where right now we're the dead
Speaker 1: heat of summer, and sometimes it's just hot because it's
Speaker 1: hot because the car is an oven, because you know,
Speaker 1: the sun is beaming down on everybody. Yeah, look, physically,
Speaker 1: the temperature is making your phone hotter than anything else.
Speaker 1: This person says. It tells you your battery life gets
Speaker 1: worse because of the modernization of the operating system. I
Speaker 1: found my sixteen Promax has gotten shocking battery life since
Speaker 1: that update, and now we're on twenty six point six,
Speaker 1: openly telling you they're going to f up your battery
Speaker 1: life and performance. They're scammers. So this guy's saying that
Speaker 1: it's it. So first, this person's saying that Apple does
Speaker 1: not intend to fix this. This is just something that
Speaker 1: they're putting in there on purpose to make your battery
Speaker 1: life worse. He's backing up what you said. He's saying, like,
Speaker 1: you know, over time, they want to make your phone,
Speaker 1: what is it, redundant or not not redundant, dumb. They
Speaker 1: want to like brick your phone so that even if
Speaker 1: you weren't considering an update, you do because the performance
Speaker 1: starts slugging out of nowhere. Lorraina says, yes, it's been awful. Yes,
Speaker 1: mine has. It's an iPhone fourteen, so I'm not surprised
Speaker 1: they wanted me to upgrade. A bunch of people are
Speaker 1: saying yes. So let us know as your iPhone as
Speaker 1: of the last updates been physically hotter and the battery
Speaker 1: life been dying. Is this a bigger problem? What was
Speaker 1: the version we're supposed to be worried about. Oh shoot,
Speaker 1: hang on, let me get back to him. I have
Speaker 1: twenty six point five point two. I think that's what
Speaker 1: you said, twenty six point five point two. Has your
Speaker 1: phone been hot or dying? I haven't noticed hot, and
Speaker 1: I don't know. I have like regular places in my
Speaker 1: day where I charge it, so I don't know. I
Speaker 1: haven't noticed anything crazy. We'll see what's happening with that.
Speaker 1: I also want to tell you something about the Odyssey
Speaker 1: that is incredibly shocking to hear. We've got another pick
Speaker 1: aside that I hate to say. I'm gonna send it
Speaker 1: over to Sea Lane. I got to send this to him,
Speaker 1: all right, because it's a really, really good one and
Speaker 1: we have much more to get into as they share
Speaker 1: the show Tuesday rolls on. That's all coming up next
Speaker 1: on The News Chunkie.
Speaker 3: We've got a very traumatic, intense pick.
Speaker 15: A side on the way in the final hour of
Speaker 15: the show.
Speaker 1: Also, we're going to talk to a bar owner about
Speaker 1: why the NFL might not be available and your local
Speaker 1: bar and the insane thing that the greedy ass NFL
Speaker 1: is doing to some of these small businesses across the country,
Speaker 1: or all of them really for that matter. It's pretty crazy.
Speaker 1: So we'll get into that in just a bit, plus
Speaker 1: your feedback over at the news Junkie dot com. I'm
Speaker 1: just gonna go ahead and say, I don't think this
Speaker 1: is going to happen, but I have to tell you
Speaker 1: the story since it's here. Something from our past is
Speaker 1: trying to make a return to prominence, a comeback, if
Speaker 1: you will, a La Kim Kardashian happening, they say. And
Speaker 1: this story is MySpace owners have planned a comeback for
Speaker 1: the iconic social network. How many times we had the
Speaker 1: MySpace come back, This is the biggest one, the biggest
Speaker 1: comeback you could ever imagine. My Space is coming back.
Speaker 1: Chris and Tim Vanderhook, the brothers who purchased it from
Speaker 1: News Corp. And their company, say they're planning to relaunch
Speaker 1: the iconic social network MySpace. Well, I have all my
Speaker 1: old content if I log in. Still I want to
Speaker 1: see that my top eight look like. Yeah, I want
Speaker 1: to see my top eight. I want to see what
Speaker 1: my like auto play profiles, song is my messages back
Speaker 1: and forth with people. Oh god, let's let's unveil that.
Speaker 1: After all these years, does.
Speaker 5: My does my headline under my profile picture still have
Speaker 5: an Elton John quote?
Speaker 1: Probably? Yeah? Ceiling had music on their folks have some songs,
Speaker 1: some originals on there. Oh god, nobody wants this. Chad says, no,
Speaker 1: not me. What you guys, you don't want It's another
Speaker 1: option for social media. Is a lot of bad I
Speaker 1: had stuff on social media on those platforms. Maybe MySpace
Speaker 1: coming back will save everything. Probably not, but maybe it
Speaker 1: will save everything. We'll see what happens.
Speaker 5: I wonder do you have to opt in for your
Speaker 5: profile to show up? It would be probably better for everybody.
Speaker 5: Everybody listening to the sound of my voice was a
Speaker 5: different person when they had MySpace.
Speaker 1: Hopefully.
Speaker 11: Yeah.
Speaker 5: I mean people don't say the same for that long,
Speaker 5: you know. So there might have been some things on
Speaker 5: your MySpace that you wouldn't want to put on there
Speaker 5: these days.
Speaker 1: Oh god, could you imagine if they if they relaunched
Speaker 1: everybody's MySpace pages and didn't let you opt out or anything,
Speaker 1: and then everybody had to go quickly delete their profiles
Speaker 1: because they were afraid of getting canceled or or whatever.
Speaker 8: Yea happened.
Speaker 1: I don't know what will be in there. I don't
Speaker 1: know what I posted. How long ago was that that
Speaker 1: MySpace shut down? Twenty years now? Let's see, YouTube is
Speaker 1: YouTube and a lot of the big platforms came out
Speaker 1: in two thousand and five, so that's they're now twenty
Speaker 1: years old. If I go to MySpace dot com right now, yeah,
Speaker 1: let me say, there's stuff there MySpace dot com all right, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: there's there's stuff. Yeah, and it looks more like a
Speaker 1: weird news music news website or something. Yeah. Well, because
Speaker 1: justin Timberlake was supposed to be the one that was
Speaker 1: bringing it back for everybody. Yeah, that's what I thought.
Speaker 1: But now, oh, maybe this is their version of it.
Speaker 1: Sign into MySpace using your Facebook accounts? Yeah, that's so weird.
Speaker 1: How a bazarre is this? Sign into MySpace using your
Speaker 1: your Facebook or Twitter account? They say it's not even
Speaker 1: Twitter anymore. I want my original MySpace. I don't want
Speaker 1: this this newfangled MySpace. Here, music videos, people all right,
Speaker 1: date network and connect with people. Oh, it still allows
Speaker 1: It allows you to like search for whatever city you're in,
Speaker 1: and then you can search for your city and stay
Speaker 1: and then I want to search for Okay, Yeah, you
Speaker 1: can bring up profiles. I see you folks here, Skyler Fennebach,
Speaker 1: Kim Agnosto. Yeah, you can see all these people's profiles.
Speaker 1: Maybe they're bringing it back, date network and connect with people.
Speaker 1: They're really leaning into the fact that we're all going
Speaker 1: to be dating each other on MySpace again. I don't
Speaker 1: know if that's gonna happen, but we'll see how it
Speaker 1: all goes. Here's the story very quickly that I was
Speaker 1: talking about. Universal Pictures before we start working in your
Speaker 1: feedback is currently on the hunt to find the person
Speaker 1: who leaked The Odyssey online. They leaked what they called
Speaker 1: it a quality version of the number one movie in
Speaker 1: the country, in the world, The Odyssey. I'm kind of.
Speaker 5: Curious why this one is catching such headlines. When movies
Speaker 5: get leaked all the time. I know that it does
Speaker 5: stand out that it is a quality version because usually
Speaker 5: right now, any copy of the Odyssey that you would
Speaker 5: download would be CAM quality or something that's like cam quality.
Speaker 5: But oh, they tapped into.
Speaker 1: The movie theater's assisted listening system tell usen yeah, to
Speaker 1: get a good copy of the audio, but the video
Speaker 1: is still kind of meh. All right, let's just bring
Speaker 1: people into the world of piracy here a little bit.
Speaker 1: When you are going to get a bootleg version of
Speaker 1: a movie, there are three basic types. There is the
Speaker 1: type where somebody actually sits there with a camera in
Speaker 1: the theater and it's called a cam, and they record
Speaker 1: the movie on their camera. If you're lucky, the camera
Speaker 1: stays still, but you still see people walking by and
Speaker 1: getting popcorn and standing up and go to the bathroom
Speaker 1: and in the audio is usually recorded from the microphone
Speaker 1: on the phone or camera, so it's usually very very bad.
Speaker 1: Sea Lane is talking about what a lot of the
Speaker 1: pirated people do. The pirates do, which is they'll go
Speaker 1: in they'll say that they are hard of hearing, and
Speaker 1: you get a connection that can plug in to the audio.
Speaker 1: You plug that audio into your camera where you're recording
Speaker 1: the movie, and you get good quality audio to go
Speaker 1: with your bad quality video. Correct. So that's a cam
Speaker 1: with what they called telesync. Right, those are the two
Speaker 1: like bad times. And then there's the kind where somebody
Speaker 1: actually has a copy of this that they sent around
Speaker 1: for reviewers or whatever, a real copy of the movie,
Speaker 1: a digital version, and then they leak that this says
Speaker 1: the studio is tracking digital watermarks to see if the
Speaker 1: source was an internal breach. Investigators are also looking into
Speaker 1: theater employees because a rogue projectionist or theater staff member
Speaker 1: could have used specialized hardware to rip the movie directly
Speaker 1: from a digital cinema package. So I don't even know
Speaker 1: if they know what kind of pirated version of the
Speaker 1: Odyssey it actually is at this point, Right, I've.
Speaker 5: Heard that the digital cinema package is very hard to
Speaker 5: just rip. I don't know that there are a lot
Speaker 5: of digital cinema packages out there. I've seen movies labeled
Speaker 5: as digital cinema packages that are one not the case.
Speaker 5: But like every time I've seen somebody claim, they're like, oh,
Speaker 5: this is this is the big stuff, the big time,
Speaker 5: this is a DCP rip. There will be people in
Speaker 5: the comments that are like, listen, I work for a
Speaker 5: company that produces these I or I work for a
Speaker 5: a movie theater, or I work in projection and I
Speaker 5: deal with these on a regular basis, and I know
Speaker 5: that it's not just some easy like like plugging in
Speaker 5: a website to download somebody's Instagram video, or.
Speaker 1: It is meant to block that. Yes, it's literally the
Speaker 1: intent of all is.
Speaker 5: Having the movie theaters receive movies like this in a
Speaker 5: digital format is very, very, very risky for studios because
Speaker 5: it's it's that much closer to just being able to
Speaker 5: copy and paste it to a drive of their own
Speaker 5: and then let everybody see it who hasn't paid for it.
Speaker 5: So they take extreme measures to make sure that that's
Speaker 5: a very difficult process. Pirates, tell us, if you've watched this,
Speaker 5: give us a little confession. If you've watched this in
Speaker 5: what kind of quality it is. Here's an idea for you,
Speaker 5: and let us know if you would spend your money
Speaker 5: on this. Texas A and M is in the news today.
Speaker 5: They've just unveiled their brand new Game Day suites. This
Speaker 5: person says it's one of the best ideas they've ever seen.
Speaker 5: This is the visual of this.
Speaker 1: It's supposed to be like these suites that are like
Speaker 1: a walking distance from the stadium. They're like they're packaged
Speaker 1: with the stadium.
Speaker 4: Relationships are built through shared experiences, a conversation before kickoff,
Speaker 4: a weekend with clients, time spent together.
Speaker 1: That's the idea behind game.
Speaker 4: Day suites, aguland private, individually owned spaces designed for hosts.
Speaker 1: Oh, these suites are nice. Just for the record, So
Speaker 1: the suite want to go to the game? Yeah, why
Speaker 1: would I want to go to the stadium. We're not
Speaker 1: gonna be this way. The suites are like these big
Speaker 1: ritzy hotel room suites. They're right next to the stadium.
Speaker 1: There's a communal area where there's like a fake football
Speaker 1: field and everybody can hang out and barbecue and grill
Speaker 1: and stuff. And these mega fans can be right there
Speaker 1: and then right next to the stadium.
Speaker 4: Gathering and doing business in the heart vacuum, just minutes
Speaker 4: from Kyle Field.
Speaker 1: Purpose built for connection. It's a nice place for agush.
Speaker 1: So they shuttle them over. Yeah, they have a little
Speaker 1: shuttle that goes over to the stadium. Game day suites
Speaker 1: a place to gather. Fake Those fireworks are what you're
Speaker 1: talking about. That's not AI, that's real, that's real football fans.
Speaker 1: Would you do this. I'm going to tell you ahead
Speaker 1: of time. They are going to take all of your money.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, they are going to charge you an insane
Speaker 1: amount of money for this, for you and your megafan friends.
Speaker 1: What the money is? Oh do you know what the
Speaker 1: price would be? Yes? Game day.
Speaker 5: Sweet's Aggie Lamb, the new luxury, non residential hospitality development
Speaker 5: near kyle Field, offering private suite ownership, so you own it.
Speaker 1: It's weird that it's non residential. It's like, you own this,
Speaker 1: but don't sleep here. Don't even think about it. White
Speaker 1: Glove concierge services, customizable entertainment spaces. Phase one reservations are
Speaker 1: open via a realty group, with individual units priced at
Speaker 1: five hundred and sixty two five dollars. So it's a house,
Speaker 1: but you cannot stay here when there's not a game
Speaker 1: going on.
Speaker 5: I mean, I would assume that they have rules against
Speaker 5: that because it says they are non residential. The Sweet
Speaker 5: price is a little over half a million dollars per
Speaker 5: unit for a customizable roughly two thousand square foot shell.
Speaker 5: The reservation deposit is fully refundable one percent deposit, so
Speaker 5: that's still fifty six hundred dollars.
Speaker 1: I can't do this, I can. We have a housing
Speaker 1: crisis in the United States of America. We have too
Speaker 1: many cities that will not open up housing so that
Speaker 1: people can build, and people can build more homes that
Speaker 1: people can then purchase on the market. The more homes
Speaker 1: that are on the market, the lower the price goes,
Speaker 1: so people can get into some of the other units
Speaker 1: that are actively out there being sold. You know, this
Speaker 1: is some of It's actually kind of genius though, like,
Speaker 1: but now we have now we've taken up room for
Speaker 1: this bason and you can't even live there.
Speaker 5: You know what they're building though, Like you know what
Speaker 5: this sounds like it could be that you know, how
Speaker 5: as a as a corporation, and you know, some corporations
Speaker 5: will will rent out or just buy out for the
Speaker 5: season a box at the stadium or a box at
Speaker 5: the arena, and it will be the you know, the
Speaker 5: T Mobile box or something, or iHeart has one in Tampa.
Speaker 5: I've sat for a Lightning game in the iHeart this
Speaker 5: iHeart suite there and this is this sounds like they're
Speaker 5: offering a similar situation, but it's just not on property.
Speaker 5: It's close enough to property that they'll shuttle you over.
Speaker 5: But what they want you to do is build out.
Speaker 5: You receive this clean shell is what they're calling it,
Speaker 5: to build out personal sports bars, corporate hosting spaces or lounges.
Speaker 1: So I pay half a million dollars and it's not
Speaker 1: even furnished. No, Oh my god, this is the problem.
Speaker 1: Oh my god, this is the problem that we're facing.
Speaker 1: We need to open up all the regulations in our
Speaker 1: country so that people can build more homes, so that
Speaker 1: people can buy those homes, and so that new homeowners
Speaker 1: will be able to get easy decided they have enough homes.
Speaker 1: We don't need this. But this is These are fake
Speaker 1: homes that are built for corporations who probably won't even
Speaker 1: use them. I cannot stand this stuff. We have this
Speaker 1: very much in our home market. Orlando is where we're
Speaker 1: based out of. If you're new to the show, no
Speaker 1: matter where you're listening in New York, in Louisiana and Florida,
Speaker 1: no matter where you're listening today, we're based out of Orlando,
Speaker 1: and we have entire neighborhoods in our city that are
Speaker 1: like ghost neighborhoods because the whole thing is set up
Speaker 1: with Airbnbs and like vacation houses, the whole neighborhood, streets, roads,
Speaker 1: all that nobody actually lives there. They're all zombie houses.
Speaker 1: This is the opposite of what we need to be doing.
Speaker 1: But I think people will probably buy this because this
Speaker 1: sports thing makes people's brains spin around or something.
Speaker 5: I would also be curious because this is a Texas
Speaker 5: A and M thing, which is collegiate. Do they serve
Speaker 5: alcohol at the games at Texas A and M oh
Speaker 5: I don't know, so, like if you got a corporate suite,
Speaker 5: would you be paying all that money and you could
Speaker 5: not entertain your guests with the alcoholic beverages Because it
Speaker 5: seems like, hey, this is another reason why you should
Speaker 5: have your off site suite. Yeah, entertain your guests pregame
Speaker 5: in your game day suites, corporate suite here that you've
Speaker 5: built out with your own sports bar, with your own
Speaker 5: amenities and stuff, and then they can just hop on
Speaker 5: the shuttle and check out the game.
Speaker 1: Maybe Wow, All right, well we've got that. Let us
Speaker 1: know if you're interested or not when we come back.
Speaker 1: Jury Dude, Sea Land's got that Nolan wells ce toe
Speaker 1: call the audio that the emailer was talking about. We
Speaker 1: have it at censored. We'll examine it and see if
Speaker 1: it changes any minds on anything. We'll get to a
Speaker 1: teacher that was arrested for clapping at a data center
Speaker 1: hearing gone wrong and Seattle. The mayor there can't say
Speaker 1: the word gangs. She refuses to say the word gangs.
Speaker 1: The police chief refuses to say the word gangs. It's
Speaker 1: an absolutely ridiculous clip that I have for you, but
Speaker 1: it's coming up next on the news Junkie. Welcome in, friends,
Speaker 1: so good to have you with us. We'll get to
Speaker 1: this audio from the Nolan Wells case, see if it
Speaker 1: changes any minds. I got flocked to talk about boy
Speaker 1: oh boy sloth world, believe it or not entering into
Speaker 1: the equation. All of this means we got to get started.
Speaker 1: Let's do jury duty or it is.
Speaker 7: Now in session, and so put your phone down and
Speaker 7: pay attention before we call the bailiff over to with
Speaker 7: your ass your knowing.
Speaker 1: Jury duty with the noose Junkie. Jury duty brought to
Speaker 1: you by the one the only mode wit of the
Speaker 1: Duit law Firm. Injured on the goat just call MO
Speaker 1: eight hundred Calmo after an accident, reach out to the
Speaker 1: attorney that's going to get you on the path of
Speaker 1: that big check you deserve.
Speaker 7: I know you do.
Speaker 1: I want to see you with that big check. You've
Speaker 1: already been through the accident. Why not make something of
Speaker 1: it and protect yourself, your family, and your future. Eight
Speaker 1: hundred CALLMO or just CALLMO dot com.
Speaker 8: Here we go.
Speaker 1: Florida Wildlife officials have said investigators have found no evidence
Speaker 1: of neglect or abuse that would support criminal charges after
Speaker 1: thirty one slass died at Sloth World in Orlando. Wow, okay, well, yeah,
Speaker 1: they investigate a lot of stuff over there. They reviewed
Speaker 1: hundreds of emails exchanged in this process. They looked into
Speaker 1: everything going on and they said, whilst some things went
Speaker 1: wrong here, obviously, they said they there was nothing criminal
Speaker 1: that happened about this. They said two slaws arrived dead
Speaker 1: from disease. The remaining eight animals were already sick and
Speaker 1: later died, bringing the total number of deaths to thirty one. Uh, YadA, YadA, YadA.
Speaker 1: So yeah, they said, what happened here, none of it
Speaker 1: is enough that they can actually charge anybody with a
Speaker 1: crime in the case, at least under current laws. And
Speaker 1: that's where that case goes now or lack thereof a case,
Speaker 1: and in this situation, a lot of people raging against
Speaker 1: data centers. Data centers as people very very upset. There
Speaker 1: was somebody who was a teacher who showed up at
Speaker 1: a data center meeting and was in opposition to the
Speaker 1: data center. A one thousand acre Flint Hills digital campus.
Speaker 1: Data center. Digital campus is such a trendy thing to
Speaker 1: call something like that. The problem is data center now
Speaker 1: I don't even know what it means anymore. Well, I'm
Speaker 1: picturing open AI and XAI and these companies need a
Speaker 1: huge data center to power all of the AI programming stuff.
Speaker 1: But I think sometimes people use it for different stories.
Speaker 1: There are data centers that are just a bunch of
Speaker 1: rooms full of servers and storage that just store data
Speaker 1: like that. That's not a new thing.
Speaker 5: That part, yeah, but the stuff that they're I don't
Speaker 5: know if the ones that are drying AI technology are
Speaker 5: using any more research resources making any more noise. You know,
Speaker 5: maybe maybe they have to be cooled more because the
Speaker 5: AI needs the chips that heat up to do all
Speaker 5: the processing. But the idea of a data center, like
Speaker 5: I said, campus is campus is a trendy thing to
Speaker 5: call your workplace.
Speaker 1: Where would you rather work at? A at an office
Speaker 1: or a campus? Campus sounds more fun. Campus sounds like
Speaker 1: like you know, like Google that has like free lunch, Like,
Speaker 1: oh yeah, well I'll meet you on campus. This is
Speaker 1: Flint Hills Digital Campus data Center, and there was somebody
Speaker 1: who shut up an opposition to it, and the person
Speaker 1: who is in opposition clapped to show his support of
Speaker 1: an impassioned speech opposing a proposed gigawatt scale facility, and
Speaker 1: as a result got arrested for clapping. The video of
Speaker 1: the incident shows this person Lucks Clarage, is saying he
Speaker 1: has the right to clap, prompting the police he used
Speaker 1: to swarm him, you do havel. He then says he'll
Speaker 1: have to be dragged out, though he ends up being
Speaker 1: carried out in handcuffs after being arrested in charge. This
Speaker 1: guy who clapped in support of somebody opposing the data
Speaker 1: center at the hearing said, I'm glad to be out,
Speaker 1: but this is an inconvenience. Really, it's not deterring me
Speaker 1: from speaking out or I guess clapping. And they said
Speaker 1: they remain committed to ensuring public meetings are conducted safely
Speaker 1: in in an orderly manner. Sounds like China, Like what
Speaker 1: in the Beijing is this? If you have a hearing
Speaker 1: to support or oppose something that's going on in your neighborhood,
Speaker 1: you can't clap if you agree with somebody, Who've got
Speaker 1: to be like perfectly quiet, like hit there, sit there,
Speaker 1: and hell no. If you disagree with something going on
Speaker 1: in your neighborhood, rabble, rouse, get angry, let them know
Speaker 1: you don't want that in your neighborhood. Otherwise they're going
Speaker 1: to thrust it upon you and it's going to make
Speaker 1: your life and everybody else is worse. Say no, say
Speaker 1: hell no, say aloud. The idea that you can arrest
Speaker 1: somebody for that is kind of crazy to me, Okay.
Speaker 5: Very very anti First Amendment. I mean clapping it does
Speaker 5: is kind of the the bare minimum of.
Speaker 1: Speech. Yeah, I would think. So here's the Nolan Wells
Speaker 1: audio that we talked about earlier. Somebody said you got
Speaker 1: to hear this. This was the seatow call that went
Speaker 1: to pick up the boat and they said, it sounds
Speaker 1: like you can hear them planning the cover up of
Speaker 1: Nolan Wells's murder. Now, I don't believe there's any evidence
Speaker 1: of this, but let's listen to the audio. At least
Speaker 1: Celand centered this.
Speaker 9: But hey, we're the West tip of Born and our
Speaker 9: billage soft work, and we're going we're thinking, can you
Speaker 9: all please can we have a membership?
Speaker 7: Oh? Y?
Speaker 1: Or all right? So a lot of this is interpretation,
Speaker 1: and they think that they said Nolan or Nolan wake up.
Speaker 5: When I was just bleeping the audio, I could not,
Speaker 5: except for the obvious curse words, uh, figure out what
Speaker 5: it was that they were saying. And then then you
Speaker 5: watch it when it has what the lady thinks it is.
Speaker 5: And and she even says before she you know, tacks
Speaker 5: on the video, she goes, listen, listen to this with
Speaker 5: an open mind, and don't use my transcription as like
Speaker 5: an end all, be all.
Speaker 1: This is just what I think is being said.
Speaker 9: Yea.
Speaker 1: And then so some of the things that were in
Speaker 1: there that she thought was being said was is he dead?
Speaker 1: Is he really dead? There's she thinks somebody said, can
Speaker 1: we cover it up? Yeah, wake up? Some of those
Speaker 1: things imply that he was on the boat at the time,
Speaker 1: but it's pretty clear from the evidence that he was
Speaker 1: not on the boat. There's there's evidence that he was
Speaker 1: on the island hanging out with some of the people
Speaker 1: as late as six pm. There's evidence that I've seen
Speaker 1: the video scan of the boat. He's not on the boat,
Speaker 1: So like that that part I don't buy into. But
Speaker 1: there's the audio that they released and they were saying
Speaker 1: that these kids were covering this up. I think it's
Speaker 1: all becoming just a larger conspiracy theory with not a
Speaker 1: lot of evidence back in it up. Somebody said Jeb
Speaker 1: Bush would have hated that meeting for the data center.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, Cloud, somebody, come on, please, somebody, anybody if
Speaker 1: you don't mind for good Cloud, good God. All right,
Speaker 1: we're back with the Power Hour. In just a moment
Speaker 1: on the show, we've got another pick aside on the
Speaker 1: way we're to talk about this NFL thing we discussed yesterday,
Speaker 1: and a whole lot more in the final hour of
Speaker 1: the show that's coming up next. On the News, Chunky,
Speaker 1: I've given Sea Lane an impossible task. There's there is
Speaker 1: a pick aside. There are more cursing than anybody's ever
Speaker 1: dreamed of.
Speaker 5: There's two different people they're cursing at each other. It's
Speaker 5: it's you know, remember we had one that was a
Speaker 5: couple of months ago where the guy just seemed to
Speaker 5: instead of breathing or instead of an ah or an um,
Speaker 5: there was a curse word.
Speaker 1: It was I think it was an S word, and
Speaker 1: it was like they call it a crutch in the
Speaker 1: radio world, like a verbal crutch, and his was just
Speaker 1: to say the word, the S word. Yes, oh it was.
Speaker 5: It was a sports interview and one of the players
Speaker 5: was being interviewed post game, and their their vernacular was
Speaker 5: very much that every you know. They didn't want any
Speaker 5: sort of empty space like that, so they would fill
Speaker 5: it with S words. That's not great for the censors
Speaker 5: or for Sea Lane in this case. But let's proceed.
Speaker 5: Let's do the Power Hour.
Speaker 1: They said it couldn't be done. Then they said, when
Speaker 1: you need help, you can't get a hold of nobody.
Speaker 1: You gotta talk to the dying computer. Time for the
Speaker 1: Power Hour on the news. Chunky, Oh nice, All right.
Speaker 1: I think we need to call up our our friend
Speaker 1: Marky about this international I don't think so. Now I'm
Speaker 1: gonna try to call him here and see see if
Speaker 1: you can shine a light on what's been happening. Automated
Speaker 1: voice messaging. We'll talk some. I told him. I was calling.
Speaker 1: I think did you tell him that the call would
Speaker 1: be coming from a toll free number? Oh shoot, let
Speaker 1: me me yeah, yeah, give him the heads up that
Speaker 1: will be from Triple aight four four three uh News.
Speaker 1: And by the way, I'll turn the lines on. I'll
Speaker 1: turn the phone lines on here into the studio for
Speaker 1: the last hour of the show. If you got anything
Speaker 1: on your mind, so Triple eight four four three six
Speaker 1: three nine seven, Triple eight four four three News. If
Speaker 1: you have any thoughts on stories we have talked about,
Speaker 1: have not talked about, or anything between. We still have
Speaker 1: a lot of ground to cover before the end of
Speaker 1: the show today, Sea Lands letting our friend know what's
Speaker 1: going on here. But here's let me recap this very
Speaker 1: quickly for for everybody. I have a theory that this
Speaker 1: could be a very different NFL season for those of
Speaker 1: you who are fans of football, and it's because the
Speaker 1: NFL is greedy as hell, and the NFL is trying
Speaker 1: to push for even more money from these bars and
Speaker 1: restaurants across the country. And when I started to hear
Speaker 1: how much the place I was at was the small,
Speaker 1: little location, and when I started to hear how much
Speaker 1: it was going to cost them to show NFL games.
Speaker 1: It rocked my world. I was like, some people might
Speaker 1: fire employees have to pay this to the NFL. Is
Speaker 1: he ready for us? Yeah? You called your number a
Speaker 1: spam ass number. Okay, it's not a spam triple a number?
Speaker 1: Is How is that spam at all? When it calls
Speaker 1: you spam?
Speaker 8: Hey? What's up?
Speaker 7: Brother?
Speaker 8: Hey?
Speaker 1: Marky?
Speaker 8: How you doing? Bud good? How are you?
Speaker 7: Sewan? Good?
Speaker 8: Good? Good?
Speaker 7: Good?
Speaker 1: Questions for you? We were talking about this NFL situation.
Speaker 1: You're a bar owner here in town, and I like,
Speaker 1: tell me if my theory, how how far off it is?
Speaker 1: I said, I think there's a potential that a lot
Speaker 1: of places that you're used to going to to watch
Speaker 1: football games, to watch NFL games during NFL season this year,
Speaker 1: won't even have them, right, I don't think they'll even
Speaker 1: have them because I don't think they can afford to
Speaker 1: do all the changes that they need to do to
Speaker 1: show these games because the NFL Sunday ticket thing has changed.
Speaker 1: Let's start off with like the very basics. Do you
Speaker 1: think people are going to see a change, like, well,
Speaker 1: some places not show the games at all?
Speaker 7: Uh? Yeah, I think for sure some places just plat
Speaker 7: up won't be able to afford it, and then the
Speaker 7: folks that do decide to jump up to change some
Speaker 7: of the smaller businesses are in potential of going out
Speaker 7: of business at the cost of it, you know.
Speaker 8: So, uh, you look at a place like.
Speaker 7: My restaurant, and I know that I don't know how
Speaker 7: much listeners know, but I know that you guys well
Speaker 7: know that we're we survive on sports, you know. So
Speaker 7: this puts us in a situation where it's like where
Speaker 7: you're trying to run a mechanic shop but you can't
Speaker 7: afford the Brench, right, And yeah, it's extremely frustrating. I
Speaker 7: actually just calculated what my total television bill will be
Speaker 7: for the year.
Speaker 8: Next year, uh huh.
Speaker 7: And that includes the fact that I have to keep
Speaker 7: direct TV for the other packages that I use, which
Speaker 7: would be the MLB, the NHL college sports packages, and Sean,
Speaker 7: I'm not lying to you, and I'm telling you this,
Speaker 7: and this is just a I mean, it's not an
Speaker 7: exact number, but I'm looking at forty.
Speaker 1: Jesus television in my bar this year, all right, So
Speaker 1: just to show the sports that everybody wants to come
Speaker 1: there for. It's now gotten up into a salary of
Speaker 1: a full time employee or something. But so the change,
Speaker 1: the change with the NFL is they want people to
Speaker 1: buy all this new hardware to watch the game a
Speaker 1: different way, right. They want you to buy this new
Speaker 1: hardware that'll allow you to watch what's it called ever
Speaker 1: pass or something.
Speaker 7: It's called ever pass correct.
Speaker 8: And yes, you'd have to buy the hardware.
Speaker 7: Equipment at the tune of three hundred dollars per box.
Speaker 7: And my restaurant specifically has twenty one boxes, and that
Speaker 7: would be at the tune of sixty three hundred just
Speaker 7: on initial equipment. And I still haven't had an answer
Speaker 7: on the packages that I have to buy to show
Speaker 7: the stuff if it's pro rated or not. So I
Speaker 7: don't know if I have to come out the twelve
Speaker 7: thousand dollars up front to just show the NFL package
Speaker 7: by itself with that equipment.
Speaker 1: So you got you got the cost. You have the
Speaker 1: cost of the hardware, which is like six thousand dollars
Speaker 1: for a cabos is your bar, and it's like how
Speaker 1: many people fit inside the bar? Like what's the docupancy?
Speaker 8: So it's funny you.
Speaker 7: Brought that up because I'm at I'm at one hundred
Speaker 7: and twenty five occupancy per city fire code, correct, Now,
Speaker 7: I think you've been to our spot. I know you
Speaker 7: know some of the listeners have as well. And you
Speaker 7: see in the size of our place. So if if
Speaker 7: you were to if we were to be in a
Speaker 7: location where we were two hundred seats or plus, tack
Speaker 7: on an extra five k. So folks like probably I
Speaker 7: don't want to speak because I don't really know what
Speaker 7: their capacity is, but I know that you guys can
Speaker 7: imagine some other larger bars that are also sports ten
Speaker 7: bars in the area, what they're going to be paying
Speaker 7: for this package, right, because who knows where it goes
Speaker 7: from there?
Speaker 1: You know, So it's another five thousand dollars. So if
Speaker 1: it's a little bit larger.
Speaker 7: If you're over to if you're if you're over one
Speaker 7: hundred and ninety nine seats, tack on five thousand the minimum.
Speaker 7: Who knows what it gets to when you get to
Speaker 7: places like a Tom's Watch Bar or one of those
Speaker 7: other really big places you.
Speaker 1: Know, right, and then you've got to get you've got
Speaker 1: to get the devices for all of the televisions. You've
Speaker 1: got to get the actual Sunday ticket costs which people
Speaker 1: don't understand. It's different for you to buy it at
Speaker 1: your house. For the bar to buy it, it costs
Speaker 1: quite a bit of money. And so the plays that
Speaker 1: I was that I was hearing them talk about this
Speaker 1: when this first came up. I was talking to Mark
Speaker 1: a little bit about this. Yesterday after the show, I
Speaker 1: heard them talking and they go, I don't know if
Speaker 1: we'll be able to show the football games this year
Speaker 1: because now the NFL is getting greedy and with this
Speaker 1: new plan that they want to force every single bar into,
Speaker 1: it was going to cost them. I think they said
Speaker 1: thirty thousand dollars, and I'm like, yeah, there are a
Speaker 1: lot of places that aren't going to be able to
Speaker 1: afford thirty thousand dollars to show the football Mark, you
Speaker 1: talked to other bar owners all the time. Have you
Speaker 1: talked to anybody.
Speaker 5: Have you talked to anybody recently about this who has
Speaker 5: been saying somebody who's place and you don't have to
Speaker 5: name names, somebody who's plays would normally show at least
Speaker 5: some NFL games, And has anybody said to you like,
Speaker 5: I don't know if we're gonna be able to swing it?
Speaker 5: This year, we might just you know, have to kind
Speaker 5: of get whoever doesn't want to watch football on Sundays.
Speaker 7: My colleagues that I talk to on a regular basis
Speaker 7: really don't have a choice. They have to get it.
Speaker 7: So I haven't really heard anyone saying, hey, we're not
Speaker 7: gonna do it yet, but I mean put it in
Speaker 7: this perspective. You guys were a big part of us
Speaker 7: being friends. And I'm not just talking about the show
Speaker 7: but in general us like just surviving COVID. Right, So,
Speaker 7: think about one of these startups that are coming in
Speaker 7: and they're trying to get their feet under their ground,
Speaker 7: and you know, their whole idea is like, man, we're
Speaker 7: gonna open a cool sports bar in whatever neighborhood, and
Speaker 7: you know, maybe it's only like a seventy seat place.
Speaker 7: That could put them out of business right off the
Speaker 7: r right, or they're gonna have to completely change their
Speaker 7: entire approach.
Speaker 8: To what their business is gonna be.
Speaker 1: Or or fire employee is like actual people that you
Speaker 1: have to pay money to because you want to have
Speaker 1: to free up some money to pay for the NFL
Speaker 1: games to be shown because as if the NFL isn't
Speaker 1: making enough money already right, Like no, kid, my god,
Speaker 1: It's like the whole thing is so crazy to me.
Speaker 1: And I I think that what you have to realize
Speaker 1: do the zoom out. We're talking to Markey here from Cavos,
Speaker 1: and he knows a bunch of people who are in
Speaker 1: the area around him, and then you know, sort of
Speaker 1: stretch that out to the to the city. Now, stretch
Speaker 1: that out to the county and the state and the
Speaker 1: entire United States of America. These are like the epitome
Speaker 1: of local small businesses that hire a bunch of local
Speaker 1: people and that they operate on pretty thin margins a
Speaker 1: lot of times, so to throw thin.
Speaker 7: Margins the margins, and the margins have been thinner and
Speaker 7: thinner each year with everything going up, the cost of gas,
Speaker 7: the cost of payroll, the cost of rent. I mean,
Speaker 7: you name it. You know, we've we've heard it a
Speaker 7: million different ways. So in my personal opinion, Sean and Chris, I.
Speaker 8: Really think, uh, don't be.
Speaker 7: Surprised if the fallout from this will be tremendously bad
Speaker 7: for some small businesses. It's gonna put me in a
Speaker 7: deep hole to start the year. But I'm lucky that
Speaker 7: at this point we were coming up on six seven
Speaker 7: years of ten years, and I'm able to try to
Speaker 7: figure it out.
Speaker 8: Here, I guess, well, may I even imagine.
Speaker 7: Being a first second year bar owner in a hostile
Speaker 7: environment like this industry has been in since COVID and
Speaker 7: attempting to survive this without being able to show what
Speaker 7: our customers want to watch on.
Speaker 1: Right, just for greed? And I think of myself, the
Speaker 1: reason why the NFL gets so much money for the
Speaker 1: broadcast rights is because so many people watch it. Part
Speaker 1: of that is because so many of these bars and
Speaker 1: pubs and stuff and restaurants put it on all the
Speaker 1: screens for big groups of people, and then they make
Speaker 1: all the money off those people watching the commercials and
Speaker 1: through like everything else, like they're they're monetizing the hell
Speaker 1: out of this. But it's like, nope, now we've got
Speaker 1: to put the squeeze on these places and small bars,
Speaker 1: small restaurants have to pay twenty thirty thousand dollars. What
Speaker 1: if there's a local game? Can you Is there anything
Speaker 1: that's like that doesn't cost money or is it all
Speaker 1: of them?
Speaker 7: So I read a stat earlier because obviously I've been
Speaker 7: tying in this for a minute and you know, take
Speaker 7: what you guys are the news junkies, so you guys
Speaker 7: will be able to probably back this a little bit better.
Speaker 8: But I read it. I read a stat earlier that
Speaker 8: I said one of the.
Speaker 7: One of the Congress went to the NFL about like
Speaker 7: egregious charges on this, and the NFL's claim is that
Speaker 7: eighty seven.
Speaker 8: Percent of the games were on free cable, when.
Speaker 7: It turned out after a research study showed that only
Speaker 7: thirty six percent of American homes actually got to see
Speaker 7: these television games because of however the rights were allocated,
Speaker 7: or if there was blackouts because not of enough tendance. So,
Speaker 7: you know, it's it's it's it's made its way to Congress.
Speaker 8: There hasn't been any movement on it.
Speaker 7: But it's a very heavy thing, man, And it's really
Speaker 7: a really, really really big squeeze on small business. And
Speaker 7: it's really a big squeeze on even the general consumer
Speaker 7: that's not coming out for the game if they want
Speaker 7: to buy the package, you know, on YouTube or wherever
Speaker 7: else you can get it. Uh, it's it's taken away.
Speaker 7: America's you know, ultimate, you know, past time.
Speaker 1: Everybody waits for this. It's like, thank god, this time
Speaker 1: of year is here we can watch the ESPN's dying
Speaker 1: for somebody to be on their their screens for God's sake.
Speaker 1: And then finally got out of.
Speaker 7: This and then absolutely and I've been on before with
Speaker 7: you guys too when we first opened, and I think
Speaker 7: I reiterated, I mean, this is going back five six
Speaker 7: years ago. But our bread and butter season where we
Speaker 7: make our money is NFL, so we have to do
Speaker 7: well during the winter to survive the summers, you know
Speaker 7: what I mean, Like, thank God this year we had
Speaker 7: a World Cup, which helped subsidize some of the loss
Speaker 7: that we normally would have taken over the summer that
Speaker 7: we were prepared for. But that doesn't mean anything to
Speaker 7: me now because all that extra money we made is
Speaker 7: completely out the door.
Speaker 5: Gotcha, Mars Markey, make sure you get on this then,
Speaker 5: you know, just for me to you as a as
Speaker 5: a helping hand pass has one thousand dollars off to
Speaker 5: coupon you if you have for July thirty first, you
Speaker 5: got one thousand dollars off the NFL Sunday.
Speaker 6: Take it.
Speaker 1: There you go, Thank you, Mark, I appreciate you man.
Speaker 7: Absolutely, I'll talk to you guys.
Speaker 1: Su d well, yeah, this marquee from Cavas. Sorry for
Speaker 1: the phone clicking. It's just something at a lot of
Speaker 1: these places, the places that you go to, all the
Speaker 1: bars that you go to, there's weird things with customer expectation.
Speaker 1: Everybody expects every game to be on. They expect to
Speaker 1: be able to see that the game that they want
Speaker 1: to see. They expect like the helmets on all of
Speaker 1: the screens to show you where everything is. And because
Speaker 1: that's happening, they end up in a position where everybody
Speaker 1: feels obliged to have all these NFL games on. And
Speaker 1: first it was like, well the Sunday ticket is three
Speaker 1: hundred dollars or three hundred and fifty dollars, and they're like,
Speaker 1: no businesses should pay more. And then now they want
Speaker 1: each little restaurant and bar to pay thirty forty thousand
Speaker 1: dollars to broadcast these games that are an integral part
Speaker 1: of their business. I think that is the NFL being greedy.
Speaker 1: I think that hurts our economy on local levels all
Speaker 1: across the country, and I think it's scummy. That's what
Speaker 1: I think is happening there. But let us know what
Speaker 1: you think, Senator Dispatch over at the Neewsjunkie dot com
Speaker 1: right now quick break. When we come back, will Well,
Speaker 1: we'll take your calls A one, triple eight four four
Speaker 1: three News. We'll work those in in the final hour
Speaker 1: the show, the Power Hour. We got more to get
Speaker 1: to anything that have teas and I haven't worked in.
Speaker 1: We'll do next in a bit of a grab bag
Speaker 1: segment that's coming up next in the News Junkie.
Speaker 15: Welcome in friend, good to have you on board, Thanks
Speaker 15: for being here. Let us learn more about this show
Speaker 15: or go over to the website. It's the news Chunky
Speaker 15: dot com, Thenewsjunkie dot com. And we have a lot
Speaker 15: to work in in this segment grab bag segment time,
Speaker 15: that's what I say.
Speaker 1: We'll see what you think about what we have for you.
Speaker 1: Seelan And is still working on this pick aside. I
Speaker 1: don't know any time to work it in. There's a
Speaker 1: lot of curse words in this particular segment, not this
Speaker 1: one hopefully, but in some of the other ones. I'll
Speaker 1: play this for you. In the meantime, Savannah Guthrie made
Speaker 1: a new video. I want to see what she has
Speaker 1: to say, and as far as we knew, they made
Speaker 1: a demand for ransom when they took her mother. The
Speaker 1: family did not pay the ransom demand, the mother died,
Speaker 1: the ransom person the kidnapper ended up saying like I'm sorry,
Speaker 1: and then that was the end of that. So I
Speaker 1: didn't expect much more. But now Savannah Guthrie made a
Speaker 1: new video yesterday and I haven't heard this yet.
Speaker 14: So coming on today with the very specific message. Okay,
Speaker 14: it has been months since our mom was taken from us.
Speaker 14: Our family is in agony. We are in a nightmare
Speaker 14: that will not end. Nothing about our situation has changed.
Speaker 14: We have done our part. We will never stop looking
Speaker 14: for her. We will always ache for her.
Speaker 1: Oh okay, I'm thinking she doesn't believe, or maybe she
Speaker 1: thinks her mother is alive. Well, maybe Savannah Gothrie here
Speaker 1: is just saying like we will never stop looking for her.
Speaker 1: Maybe meaning they want they want her body back, they
Speaker 1: would like her amin.
Speaker 5: I think they're pretty much under the assumption that they're
Speaker 5: not getting a live body back.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that could be the case.
Speaker 14: The world can be a cruel and unforgiving place, and
Speaker 14: I know that you have tried to do things the
Speaker 14: right way, So I'm asking you, begging you to do
Speaker 14: the right thing. Now, make the right choice, help us
Speaker 14: find her, tell us where to look for her. I
Speaker 14: truly believe it is never too late to do the
Speaker 14: right thing. Help us bring this situation to an end.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 1: I think that's what they're doing for all of us.
Speaker 14: No matter where we've been and what we've done. I
Speaker 14: believe there is always a way home.
Speaker 8: You know.
Speaker 1: I don't know if this is possible or not, but
Speaker 1: I thought about this a little bit yesterday. I was like,
Speaker 1: what if Savannah Guthrie came out and made a deal
Speaker 1: with investigators and they said, we just want our mother's
Speaker 1: body back so we can close this case and move
Speaker 1: on and put her to rest. And as a matter
Speaker 1: of fact, if you just tell us location, we won't
Speaker 1: even investigate the death to try to see if there's
Speaker 1: any pieces of information that lead.
Speaker 5: Back to the person who kidnapped and killed Nancy Guthrie.
Speaker 5: Would you believe that?
Speaker 1: I would not know. I would not, so I don't
Speaker 1: even know if it would do any good, But I
Speaker 1: was wondering if you could, if you'd be like, hey,
Speaker 1: we're we're going to tell them not to investigate, not
Speaker 1: to look into this at all, just to let it go.
Speaker 1: We just want our bodyback. I'm not sure if that's
Speaker 1: how you could work this out, but certainly that's what
Speaker 1: they're going for there. All right, let me know when
Speaker 1: you send over that that's in your Gmail?
Speaker 7: Is it?
Speaker 1: Okay? Hang on, let me bring this up because Celian's
Speaker 1: got one final pick aside for us. I'll give us
Speaker 1: some other emails in the meantime. Ashley says, Hey, sean
Speaker 1: to tips at the news Junkie dot Com. I work
Speaker 1: in education. There are a lot of kids with autism
Speaker 1: these days on different levels. All schools have an EESE
Speaker 1: department where ESE teachers will come into the classroom or
Speaker 1: pull the student out of the classroom for a short
Speaker 1: period of time. Other than that, those students are in
Speaker 1: general education for most of the school Then, there are
Speaker 1: a limited amount of schools that have units. These units
Speaker 1: are for severely handicapped children, severe autistic kids, and kids
Speaker 1: with bad behavioral problems that chronically interrupt the class. They
Speaker 1: are in a dedicated unit all day with constant supervis
Speaker 1: and are not mixed in with general education kids. Also,
Speaker 1: just a side note, these parents with kids that have
Speaker 1: autism will play that diagnosis to death for their kids'
Speaker 1: bad behavior. Some of the kids are just bad and
Speaker 1: the parenting sucks and they love to blame it on autism.
Speaker 1: Have a great day, love y'all. Thank you very much
Speaker 1: Ashley for the email. Mark says, hey, Sean and Selan,
Speaker 1: I agree that the video for the pick aside earlier
Speaker 1: appears to be missing the real reason for the tension
Speaker 1: in the neighborhood. Why else would they He be so
Speaker 1: scared that he had to ready his weapon. With that
Speaker 1: being said, I picked the side of the ass whooping
Speaker 1: he was about to receive. I mean the neighborhood. He said, Uh,
Speaker 1: somebody sends over the full clip of that, but I'm
Speaker 1: gonna have to pass on that for right now because
Speaker 1: Selan is sent over another pick aside that we have
Speaker 1: just enough time to work in. All right, so let
Speaker 1: me bring this up. This is a wild, wild video,
Speaker 1: all right. Let me pause this here and we'll get
Speaker 1: ready for this. We have just enough time, so let's
Speaker 1: do another pick a s you must pick aside. This
Speaker 1: video is crazy. This is a group of young girls
Speaker 1: that are joy riding in their parents' car and crashed
Speaker 1: into a homeowner's yard. So on one side you have
Speaker 1: the homeowners who are upset, and you have the young
Speaker 1: girls who are just kids out there joy riding. You
Speaker 1: must pick aside. Here goes nothing. Is there music behind
Speaker 1: the whole beginning of this for like the first ten
Speaker 1: seconds or so, okay, fades out. Okay, I mean, what
Speaker 1: have they even done to this car? Number one? Oh
Speaker 1: my god? The car is pointed almost straight up in
Speaker 1: the air and the wheels are just spinning. So I
Speaker 1: have no idea how they even got themselves into this circumstance.
Speaker 5: And then at the beginning of the video, it's kind
Speaker 5: of hard to hear because there's some weird music at
Speaker 5: the background, but they're trying to ask somebody, could you
Speaker 5: help us reverse this and not call the cops like
Speaker 5: they wanted to get out of this situation in a
Speaker 5: way where they don't find themselves in an illegal trouble.
Speaker 1: Oh okay. So in this pick aside, we have the
Speaker 1: young teens who are joy riding in their mom's car,
Speaker 1: and on the other side, the homeowners who refuse to
Speaker 1: help them out or cover up the crime.
Speaker 5: Basically, right, that is what I'm gathering just at the
Speaker 5: beginning here, This gentleman is very perfect. A lot of
Speaker 5: curse words.
Speaker 7: Do you know? Now? You got my mom?
Speaker 1: The wheel is just spinning right, just like there's girls
Speaker 1: running in all different directions. Here are these all the
Speaker 1: girls that were inside the car that crashed here. I
Speaker 1: have no clue. This is like pandemonium. Yeah, it's the
Speaker 1: absolute pandemonium. These young girls are running in every which direction.
Speaker 1: There's some guy who's screaming, but I can't find out
Speaker 1: who's who just yet. I want to know, like what
Speaker 1: we're looking at him. It looks like they're walking underneath
Speaker 1: the vehicle too. I don't know if they are.
Speaker 5: It's a very dumb move, especially with the with the
Speaker 5: what if the wheel which is constantly moving. I don't
Speaker 5: know who's making the wheel move, or if the car
Speaker 5: is just idly and they didn't turn it off before
Speaker 5: they got out of it. But being underneath that vehicle
Speaker 5: is an incredibly stupid move.
Speaker 1: That's about as dangerous as it gets. The vehicles caught
Speaker 1: up on the wires in the front end, his way
Speaker 1: up in the air, and they're actively walking underneath it. Oh,
Speaker 1: help us reverse it. There's no reversing this out. Hey,
Speaker 1: y'all better go, Yeah, i'd say so. Oh, she's trying
Speaker 1: to jump back in the car. She's crawling back into
Speaker 1: the car.
Speaker 5: So, if we're to gather from the context here, it's
Speaker 5: the girls that took the car on a joy ride
Speaker 5: and now and it's ended up on somebody's property, just
Speaker 5: crushing something. It's half up in the air. It's uh,
Speaker 5: it looks like I think maybe the guy who's doing
Speaker 5: the most cursing is the person who's got property damage.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and so for the girl to be like, I
Speaker 1: don't know, we're getting yelled at. Well, here's the thing.
Speaker 1: If you joy ride a car and you crash the car,
Speaker 1: you're gonna get in trouble. You know, Like, what world
Speaker 1: are you living in? You're like, don't tell anybody, help
Speaker 1: us back it out, help us reverse. Your car is
Speaker 1: pointing straight up in the air. What exactly do you think?
Speaker 1: What's what's gonna happen here? There's no way out of
Speaker 1: this where you don't get in trouble. That's just unbelievable
Speaker 1: that they would think that that would be a possible
Speaker 1: outcome for God's sake. I yeah, this is like, it's
Speaker 1: very difficult because I can't tell what's going on. There's
Speaker 1: too many different people moving around. But if it's down
Speaker 1: to just these girls who joy rode this car, you
Speaker 1: gotta pay the piper. Now you're in you're in trouble.
Speaker 1: You're gonna you're learning a lesson today, I would hope.
Speaker 1: So they don't want to learn any lessons though, Like
Speaker 1: give me my phone. My phone's in the car. You guys,
Speaker 1: just help us. It won't even be that big of
Speaker 1: a deal. Just give us a hand, for God's sake.
Speaker 1: That's an ugly one. For God's sake. Oh, come water
Speaker 1: to the grass where we drove over. It's cool. Yeah, No,
Speaker 1: it'll all be fine, It'll be fine, all right. What
Speaker 1: else the Brian Koberger thing, he's trying to withdraw his
Speaker 1: guilty plea. I'm hoping that the judge will turn that down.
Speaker 1: The judge asked him if he was of sound mind
Speaker 1: and everything, and if he was aware of what he
Speaker 1: was doing, and if he was h wanting to make
Speaker 1: this guilty plea to make a deal to save his life,
Speaker 1: and he said yes. And now he's trying to say
Speaker 1: he wants to withdraw his guilty plea in the University
Speaker 1: of Idaho murder's case, saying there were false promises misinformation
Speaker 1: and ineffective counsel. I hope the judge turns it down
Speaker 1: because the family already went through all of this stuff.
Speaker 1: Here is his little letter, Brian Coberger says. It is
Speaker 1: hereby declared that during an attorney client discussion, most of
Speaker 1: which included all members of Brian Coberger's immediate family, petitioner
Speaker 1: was convinced to falsely confess to capital murder and felony
Speaker 1: burglary by coercion, disinformation, false promises, and the withholding of
Speaker 1: exculpatory discovery. The following is material to the inception of
Speaker 1: the plea Council's failure to inform petitioner of his exculpatory
Speaker 1: discovery received during plea discussions, namely clumps of unknown hair
Speaker 1: found in one of the victim's hands, as well as
Speaker 1: a failure of further inquiry. So he's like handwriting his
Speaker 1: affidavit here to take away his plea. And he says
Speaker 1: it's because there was some game changing evidence that would
Speaker 1: have changed everything. And he says he wants to take
Speaker 1: away the plea deal that he made. We don't know
Speaker 1: what the judge is going to say. We'll keep an
Speaker 1: eye on that for sure, and let you know what
Speaker 1: happens as the case proceeds. But I hope the judge
Speaker 1: says no, all right, quick break. When we come back,
Speaker 1: we'll do the final dispatches, stories that didn't make the cut,
Speaker 1: and today learn to wrap everything up for eight Tuesday.
Speaker 1: That's coming up next in the News Junkie. Not a
Speaker 1: lot of time on the way out, but let's see
Speaker 1: how much we can make happen in that short amount
Speaker 1: of time. Let's see some rate my blanks. Because so
Speaker 1: many people did send those in today, I want to
Speaker 1: work in at least a couple of them. This is
Speaker 1: Matt from PSL. He says, this is my workspace. It's
Speaker 1: rate my mess this week is our rate my blank.
Speaker 1: That means if you have anything, you have a filthy house,
Speaker 1: if you have a dirty car, you've got to workspace.
Speaker 1: That's an absolute mess. We want to see it, and
Speaker 1: the best photo we see from that send as a
Speaker 1: photo dispatch on the News junkie dot com or in
Speaker 1: the app. I'll say this about Matt's quote unquote mess.
Speaker 1: This looks like organized chaos.
Speaker 5: This is orderly, good stuffs everywhere, but it's all facing
Speaker 5: the same direction. It seems a little less of a mess,
Speaker 5: but still a lot to deal with.
Speaker 2: I get.
Speaker 1: What I'm learning is that there's too many of you
Speaker 1: that are just very very orderly people. Uh, this is
Speaker 1: rate my mess.
Speaker 14: Mess.
Speaker 1: I'm into three D printing. I just got into it,
Speaker 1: and as you can see, oh yeah, it is taking
Speaker 1: over my Yeah. So he's three D printing and he's
Speaker 1: got three D print boxes and spools and and everything
Speaker 1: all over the place.
Speaker 5: I've said before, there's so much about three D printing
Speaker 5: that fascinates me that I want to get into. But
Speaker 5: I'm I'm very, very steadfast holding off on trying to
Speaker 5: dive into that obsession because then I would have a
Speaker 5: room that just I already have a room that looks
Speaker 5: like mad Kings, but with other stuff, not three D
Speaker 5: printing related stuff.
Speaker 1: So I would just be that much worse for the wear.
Speaker 1: Here's another one. Not my office, it says, but this
Speaker 1: is an absolute mess. This is somebody else's office at
Speaker 1: their work. I guess that is a mess. Indeed, lets
Speaker 1: se if I can work in one more rate my mess,
Speaker 1: says Beha. I've been one hundred percent solo parenting since
Speaker 1: the first part of June with my kids twenty four
Speaker 1: to seven. So far, we've had two er trips and
Speaker 1: a handful of candy dinners. They decided to start sharing
Speaker 1: a room. Last night, I cut my foot stepping on
Speaker 1: a seashell Send help. Oh god, you know what, considering
Speaker 1: your circumstance, I thought it might be worse. Yeah I did. Yeah,
Speaker 1: this just shows your kids are, like, you know, they're
Speaker 1: having some fun with each other. They're like doing like
Speaker 1: a sleepover type thing. I had a very fun kids room,
Speaker 1: So I thought this was going to be worse. Biha,
Speaker 1: not not as bad as I anticipated. Rate my mess
Speaker 1: when I worked for PEPSI, oh that's not good. That
Speaker 1: just this is just things falling apart in your office.
Speaker 1: And then finally, this is my workshop when I'm between jobs,
Speaker 1: says Kat. All right, thank you, we appreciate those. We'll
Speaker 1: put them all into the mix. Somebody's going to win
Speaker 1: for the week. But brighter. Yeah, I mean, none of
Speaker 1: these have been shockingly bad just yet. I think they
Speaker 1: could be worse. But that's what we got for now. Okay.
Speaker 1: The mayor of Seattle and the police chief refused to
Speaker 1: say gangs, even though it was a mass shooting done
Speaker 1: in Seattle at that food festival that they believe was
Speaker 1: gang related, including a fifteen year old suspect that's in custody.
Speaker 1: They kept saying group related, that they wouldn't say the
Speaker 1: word gang.
Speaker 5: Yeah, it reminds me of After Pulse, when the governor
Speaker 5: wouldn't say gay.
Speaker 1: Gay club. They said, we have small all groups that
Speaker 1: appear to be at odds with each other. What do
Speaker 1: you think a gang is? We have these small groups
Speaker 1: and the pair of band odds with each other, but
Speaker 1: they're like, buddy, just say gang. Okay, let's get out
Speaker 1: of here. Let's do today an The.
