Let's go to Timothy, who lives in Crestview Heights, Kentucky. If 66% of people, hospitalized with COVID in New York, we're sheltering in place and wearing a mask to protect other people. Why do you, O'Reilly, not wear a mask at home? Because there's no COVID in the house.
Starting point is 00:04:42 I've been here now almost three months during the pandemic. No one has fallen ill. We don't have a lot of people coming in and out. It's just a family and a tarot dog.

Richard in Albuquerque, New Mexico. If you take a look at the polls, you'll find that Joe Biden is slipping. Once the economy comes back, we know there's going to be a landslide for Trump in November. Well, I don't know that, Richard, and your data is a little off. According to realclearPolitics.com, the consensus of the polling is that Biden has a small lead.

Starting point is 00:06:31 civil litigation problem in Great Britain because of that. We, on the other hand, have chaos in our civil courts because of all the nonsense with extortionist lawyers who work for free most times, they get a piece of any settlement, clogging up the court with insanity. So you are right. Let's do the British system. Let's go to Kevin in Jacksonville, Florida. We are Disney passholders, and whatever they want within reason, we'll do. It's been way too long that our lives have been affected by this COVID-19 nightmare. You've got to be a little patient, Kevin. All right? The thing is so contagious and older Americans are at risk, we've got to be a little patient. But Disney's going to make you sign a waiver. You can't sue Disney if you think you got COVID there.
Starting point is 00:07:31 You sign a paper, you pay their big fee, they'll let you in. Okay. I'm Bill O'Reilly and I approve that message by actually putting it together.

Starting point is 00:09:00 Update brings you something you might not know and it's a scary tale. In May 1933, a Scottish newspaper began reporting sightings of a giant monster swimming in one of the local lakes. Within months, dozens of eyewitnesses claimed to have seen the creature.
