You can follow me on Twitter at Jeff E-M-R-A, Facebook, Jeff Fisher Radio, Instagram at JeffEMRA. Been a busy week. The Facebook killer that really wasn't the Facebook killer.

Yeah, just a killer. Aaron Hernandez, killer who wasn't a killer this time, but just a killer? There was a breaking story that he wrote, left a letter to his boyfriend in prison. I haven't read the death letter yet. Can't bring myself to do that. Both men ended their own lives, though. The Facebook killer that wasn't a Facebook killer, and Aaron Hernandez, who was a killer but wasn't a killer this time,

yeah, they both decided that it was time to end it. North Korea is still in the crosshairs. Venezuela falling apart at the seams, more historic, horrific attacks in France, more lost lives, including police. And our President Donald Trump responded. Well, first of all, our condolences from our country to the people of France. Again, it's happening, it seems.

I just saw it as I was walking in, so that's a terrible thing. And I'd say very, very terrible thing. that's going on in the world today, but it looks like another terrorist attack. And what can you say? It just never ends. We have to be strong and we have to be vigilant, and I've been saying it for a long time. Heartfelt. Then we have the Alex Jones bitter custody trial here in Texas,

and we'll get into the testimony of that a little bit later on in the broadcast. That will be fun. Then, oh, well, you still don't have to build the wall, right? We're still going to build the wall. For heaven's sakes. We're sending people down there. We've got Mike Pence, Attorney General, down there. They're all dancing around.

We're going to still build the wall. I mean, he said that. And I heard him give another speech in Wisconsin about American jobs, buy American, work American, America's great. One good thing, though. One good thing. We were able to bypass death. I bet you didn't realize that you came close to death this week, did you?

On Wednesday, an asteroid hurtled past Earth. I mean, it was, you should have felt. You should have felt the wind, the fire, because it was, I mean, it was about a million miles away. And that's too close. We should have blown it out of the sky. We should have blown it. The asteroid known as a 2014 J025, but they call it the rock.

You know, Duane, the rock. You smell what the rock is cooking. Mr. Superstar, Mr. I'm in every movie that makes $800 billion every time I make a movie. It was made because of him. I was named because of him. Because it's about 2,000 feet. Now think of that, 2,000 feet.

Those little asteroids fly around by the earth. All the time, rocks, little pebbles that would do damage to the earth. And they put holes in the earth when they finally burn through the atmosphere. But something that big, they'll do some serious damage. But fortunately, fortunately for you and me, it missed. Right? Because, I mean, we still want to celebrate Earth Day today. Right?

Right. because it's Earth Day and I want to celebrate. I mean, really, we should, I don't know, make everyday Earth Day. But according to global citizen.org, there are ways that you can celebrate today without, you know, these are just ways that you can celebrate and you should do this every day. Like say, get a recycled bottle, water bottle. Do that, huh? You could start composting.

And boy, I got to tell you what fun that is. You could, oh, I know as long as you're composting, you might as well plant a garden. You could, don't plant a tree. You could buy a tree certificate. Huh? Yeah. You could build a birdhouse or start a bee farm.

I mean, nothing says I love the earth more than a bee farm. You could make your home energy efficient. As to these are just some ways you can celebrate Earth Day today. You could become a better grocery shopper. Huh? Now, you want to celebrate Earth Day. Become a better grocery shopper. You could enjoy nature.

Oh, yeah. I mean, set aside a lot of time to. Enjoy nature this Earth Day. How about go for a hike, head to the beach, or just sit in a park and appreciate the moment? You could adopt part of the planet. I, NASA is letting you adopt part of the planet. So I thought, I know, I'll adopt part of the planet. I mean, I want to celebrate.

I don't be part of Earth Day. We're going to check in. There's marches on science and climate change and Earth Day going on in D.C. We'll check in on that later. But I wanted to be, you know, want to have my little piece of the earth, thanks to NASA. So I adopted it. They didn't ask for any money. I thought I'm sure they would.

But they didn't ask for any money. It's a free adoption. Just go to the website. I'll click the link out and have my Twitter account. And you can adopt your little piece to the planet. Now, my piece. And they show you exactly where it is. My piece is right off the east coast of Africa.

I mean, I am happy about that because that's a good place to have. Now, it looks like it's not quite on land. Apparently, I've adopted some portion of the ocean. But hey, good for me. Good for me. Because, I mean, what's going on over there? Nothing. Pirates, nothing. Terrorists, nothing. That's it. Nothing's going on over there on the East Coast of Africa.

Except just that, pirates and terrorism. Don't worry about it. But I do have a slice of the earth now, thanks to NASA. So got that going for me. Got that going for me. Now, you could, another way you could celebrate Earth Day today is express your love of Earth through art. Yeah, I know. I know. You could clean up and help restore Earth. You know, pick up the trash. You know, there's billions of tons of trash just floating around the ocean. Get a ship. Go out and pick some up. But really, you should just celebrate Earth Day every single day. Shouldn't you?

Yes, you should. Yes. You should. Yes. You should. Welcome to the broadcast. This is the Blaze Radio Network, the Jeff Fisher Show. You just heard from Michael Pelka. We will check in with our man in the March. Yeah, we'll just call it that Man of the March in D.C. A little bit later in the broadcast.

You heard a little bit from him on the Michael Pelka show, Doc Thompson. He apparently was busy making signs so he's not out part of the March yet. So we're looking forward to some pictures and some stories. going on. My favorite, I think, is I'm with her, with a sign of a picture of the Earth. And that's pretty darn good. And I'm sure there'll be plenty more that'll be well worth looking at as we want to help celebrate Earth Day today. Do your part. Like, I just did my part. I adopted a free piece of the ocean just off the East Coast. of Africa, thanks to NASA.

I'm done. This is the Jeff Fisher Show on the Blaze Radio Network. Are you worried about your mom or dad living alone in their house? Hi, I'm Joan London. Listen, I know how difficult it is to find senior care for someone you love.

That's why I recommend a free service called A Place for Mom. They are the nation's largest senior living referral service. Call a place for mom today. To receive free information on senior living communities in your area, call a place for mom at 1,800-803-6951. The Jeff Fisher Show. Hey, yeah, yeah.

Trying to figure out what makes the screen work in here. Hold on. I can't. All right. So we're remodeling the radio studios, and they're looking nice. And if you follow me on Twitter, Facebook, or Instagram, you see I updated every week with a quick picture of how they're coming along. And they're coming along nice.

And we've got the tree stack of TVs in the corner here. but there's one big screen to my left that has our program that runs the network that can come up on the screen. No one knows how to make it work. It's just the screen. It's like the screensaver of the computer network. So there's like 18 mouses laying on this table next to me. Not one works.

There's a remote to my left that works at least on, hold on it works on one TV. Does it work on another one? It just works on the top. This remote works on the top television of the three-tiered televisions. And I know you don't care. I'm sorry, but it's just something that's driving me crazy right now. So I'm doing it, okay? But I've got to fit.

All right. I'm going to have to shut it off, find a way to just unplug it because it's going to drive me crazy that I can't actually see. I just keep looking at it. It's just this screen that I want to see what's inside behind the screen. And it won't let me do it. So, I mean, good. that going for me. Did you see the new Calvin Klein ad?

Lauren, if you want to talk about times that have changed, right? I remember back in the day when Brooke Shields was, you know, nothing comes between me and my Calvin Klein and she was like 10. And everybody was all upset about, oh my God, they've got this young girl doing this and it's so horrible. And the brick was like, whatever. And it was great. It was a great ad campaign for Calvin Klein. Well, you want to know how times have changed? This year, 73-year-old Lauren Hutton. Now, you should know who she is.

I mean, she's been around a long time. But she's been in a number of movies and television. And she's done, you know, a model forever. And, but now she's part of the Kelvin Klein underwear ad. America is wonderful. America is great. I watch the ad. least I watched what they released as one of their ads. And I mean, I was, you know, I was hoping to,

I won't go there, never mind. She's not in a lot of the, a lot of the ad. So most of the ad is not of 73-year-old women. We'll just leave it at that. Okay? We'll just leave it at that. But that's how America has changed. And along with the 73-year-old Calvin Klein, uh, model. We have Julia Roberts for the fifth time at 49 years old named People Magazine's World's Most Beautiful Women. Okay, Julia, I love you, okay? You mean?

We're on the same page. I love you. But People Magazine. Come on now. Come on. There are just, here you go. Search Instagram. You'll find some of America's most beautiful women, okay?

It's not Julia Roberts. We have plenty of actresses that can cover that base of the most beautiful, the most beautiful woman on earth. On top of which, her interview about, hey, ha ha, so happy, and it's the fifth time, and it's wonderful, and I really don't think about it, and everything's wonderful. She doesn't look as good as the regular photo on People magazine. I'm not saying they doctored it.

I'm not saying they airbrushed anything. I'm not saying they, you know, make up the whole magazine cover. None of that. I wouldn't, far be it from me to say that. But it doesn't quite look as good as the cover. Now, since I, you and I started this little segment with talking about, you know, televisions and remotes that won't work and mouses that, won't work and not connected to anything.

One of the people that work on the show decided, oh my God, he's bitching about the one TV on the screen. I'm going to come in and fix it. I'll show him. So during the whole time I'm talking, he's in here working on the TV and I think, great, he's going to get it working. It's going to be great. He left it with another screensaver on it.

It's like a little marsupial. What is that? It's a, it's a, it's a, is that a, is that a, is that a, is that a, is that a, that's not a, that a, is that, that's It is a baby koala. Okay. It doesn't look like a koala bear to me. I got to go to the zoo more. What's got to happen.

But for Earth Day, we're celebrating with a koala bear, which you can't see. Hold on. You'll see it soon because I'm going to take a picture of my Earth Day celebration here in the studios just for you. And you can celebrate with us here at the Blaze Radio Network. Okay. I'll give you what I'm looking at. Celebrate Earth Day with my, and I'm going to leave my Coke Zero can and my water bottle that's not recycled in the picture. And you can celebrate Earth Day with us, okay?

All right. 888-90-33 is the phone number. You've got Lawrence Jones coming up immediately following this broadcast, then Mike Slater. Joe Pags, all on the Blaze Radio Network on your Saturday lineup. No need to go anywhere else except right here. on the Blaze Radio Network. Now, there were several headlines that really kind of threw me over the weekend and over the week. And one of my favorites was from Vanity Fair.

And a article that was written by T.A. Frank. And I really appreciate T.A. Frank. simply because the headline of his article was, please God, stop Chelsea Clinton from whatever she is doing. And I must say, I agree wholeheartedly. But you're not going to be able to stop her. You know that, right? There is no way you are going to stop Chelsea Clinton.

She'll be in Congress in a blink of an eye. I told you already you didn't think Hillary was out blasting her mouth and making appearances for her, do you? No. It's for Chelsea. And every little article is about her little book. She's got another new book coming out. She's got a book and paper.

She just reads so darn much that she's got so many books on her Kindle. And she's just darn smart. She's a mother. This is working mom. She's out there doing it for you. And she saw how to make millions from mom and dad as you set up the Clinton Foundation all over again. And it will just be the Chelsea Clinton Foundation.

And this time it'll be even better than what mom and dad did. It'll be great. And she's got glossy magazine profiles. She's just so darn nice and good. We just can't wait to get her part of our government life. Because she's going to be there. Count on it.

and she's friends with Ivanka. Ivanka will seat to that. Don't you kid yourself. She'll be in Congress within a year. Well, I'm trying to think, I'll look it up in the break exactly when the next seat in New York is open because whichever one it is, she'll be running for it. Guaranteed.

There's a couple of seats that have some really old, old guys in it, right? from New York that are going to have to retire soon. They're either going to retire or die. Isn't that the same thing? No. But pretty close. When they go, if she hasn't decided on a seat yet, she'll just walk into that. And it'll be the same thing all over again.

She can be Congresswoman until she feels like I should run for Senate. I can do more good for America as Senator. And then it'll be, you know, Chelsea, you know it'll be good. you as president of the United States. Your mother could never pull it off, but you, you can. This is the Jeff Fisher Show. Only on the Blaze Radio Network. There's the Jeff Fisher Show.

There's no actual. All right, so I'm looking at a story here, American Airlines employee accused of hitting women with stroller, narrowly missing the baby. Oh my gosh. So more airline news. Good stuff. Good stuff.

You love the airlines. You do. You love them. You love them. And you just don't want to think anything bad about the airlines. But gosh darn it, they make you. They make you. So I'm trying to see the footage,

but all it shows is mom crying with the little baby and people getting all wound up. So mom isn't crying that she got hit. Mom's crying. Oh, I'm sorry. You almost hit by baby. Stop it. I, look, you want to hate the airlines.

We've covered the United stuff before. I mean, you want to hate the airlines. At least I do. I mean, I'm tired of them. And then there was the story last week that broke on Saturday about the bride and groom headed to Costa Rica for their wedding, got kicked off the United flight here in Houston. The couple along with friends were flying from Salt Lake City and had a layover at George Bush Intercom.

Intercontinental Airport. I don't know if you depend to George Bush and Houston, but it's not really a small place. It's big. Michael Hall of the groom said he and his fan say, Amber Maxwell, were the last to board the plane.

They noticed a man was spread across their row napping when they approached their seats 24B and C. Not wanting to wake the man, they decided to sit three rows up in seats 21B and C. They didn't think it would matter because the flight was half full.

and you'd think it shouldn't matter, right? Well, you'd be wrong. In a Boeing, 737-800, like the one the couple was on, United considers Ro 21, Economy Plus, an upgrade. Oh my gosh, so they were trying to steal an upgrade when a man was sleeping on their seats. After sitting, Holt said the flight attendant approach and asked if they were in their ticketed seats.

The couple explained they weren't, and asked if they could get an upgrade, but instead they were told they needed to return to their assigned seats. After complying with the flight attendant's demand, a U.S. Marshal came onto the plane and asked them to get off. The couple cooperated got off the plane without incident, but they still don't understand why. I got to believe there was more to this story.

United claims there has actually tried to sit in an upgraded seat repeatedly, and they wouldn't follow crew instructions. The airline provided this still. We're disappointed anytime a customer has an experience that doesn't measure up to our expectations. Are you? These passengers repeatedly attempted to sit and upgraded seating, which they did not purchase, and they would not follow crew instructions to return to their assigned seats. We've been in touch with them, and they've rebooked them on flights tomorrow.

All right. What if the plane, see, this piss me off. If, normally, if the plane is not full. they upgrade people. See, that's the problem. They upgrade people. The flight attendants come along and, would you like to sit up in first class?

Sure. I would you like to sit in business? Okay. You can sit up in these seats. They're more comfortable. We really, we don't, we have the space. That's fine. I know your ticket in here,

but just go sit there. It's fine. Don't worry about it. But since they did it on their own, it's a crime. I've been on, it doesn't happen very often anymore to be on airplanes that have,

half full status. That doesn't happen very often. The way they've cut down on flights and maneuvered timelines around the country, I mean, every flight is pretty full. And I mean, that's good for them, right? Except that they end up overbooking and you get what happened, you know,

you get a guy being dragged off. And by the way, I don't know if we talked about it here or not, but there was a later video that came out where the dock was pretty, was not aggravated, at least what I saw. He wasn't mean. He was just saying, I'm not getting off the plane.

You can have to drag me off. I'm not getting off the plane. Which kind of, I mean, if he's going to sue them, really that's a problem because he's the one that actually said, hey, I'm not leaving. We're going to have to drag you off, sir. Then you're going to have to drag me off because I'm not getting off. but I still find fascinating is that on that flight, if I'm on that flight, let's say,

and I'm questioning whether to take the deal or not, but I don't want to because I want to get home to, just like everybody else, everybody just wants to get on the plane and get to their destination. And when the airline decides that pilot Joe and flight attendant Mary need to get to the next destination, but they've over, but the plane is full, and they're going to kick you off, that's what they get to do. That's special. It's nice of them.

And so they did their little lottery thing. And the doc played the bluff and he lost. So he really should have gotten off. But during that whole time, not one other person on that plane said, I'll go. During that whole time building up to him getting dragged off the plane where he said, I'm not getting off the plane. We're going to have to drag you off then.

Then drag me off. off because I'm not getting off the plane. I've paid for my ticket. I need to get home. Played his doctor card. I'm not getting off the plane. At that point, someone, someone should have said, you know what, stay where you're at, Doc.

I'll go. I'll go. There you go. You get your seat. Leave him alone. I'm out. No one did that, though. So all those people whining,

can't believe what they did to him. Yeah, me either. Me either. I can't believe it either. And especially the lady with the phone, look what they're doing to. I can't believe what they're doing to him. Oh, my God.

Shut up. And you get off. Now, the flip side, I know. I want to hate the airline. I got it. I want to hate him. There shouldn't even have been in that. That whole situation was a nightmare.

And I'll tell you who needs to be fired. And I have no idea why this has not been the case is the United CEO. I mean, he's handled it horribly. On top of which, when the best news you get, there was also a story about a scorpion dropping down and stinging somebody on the United Flight. Yeah. When that turns out to be the best news for your airline for the week, something's wrong. And the United CEO said, we're no longer going to use police to remove passengers.

Okay. then I'm not moving. Good luck, God bless. Right? Who's going to move? You're going to hope for someone to go? You're going to hope for someone to go, okay. You know what?

I'll go. Don't worry about it. No. It's not going to happen. I'm not moving. You're not even going to give me the threat of dragging me off, or at least by police. I mean, that might be their little cops.

We won't use police. Those are police. Those are TSA authority. Okay. Thank you. Those are federal marshals. That's not really police. Police would be local municipalities.

Oh, okay. Thank you. Now the mom with the baby, I don't know the entire story of that. That was on American Airlines. You know, I know personally friends with a couple of American airline pilots, and they're nice men. Are you saying that women can't be pilots? Yes, that's what I'm saying.

Of course not. And I also am familiar with a couple of flight attendants. You know which ones I'm talking about. That are, you know, that are, well, kind of one American airline flying. She was a fan of the show. She wanted to talk. It was very nice. It was very nice.

And so, I mean, most of the people are pretty nice. but there are some duchess. And we run into them all the time when you're flying. You run into them all the time. You run into the flight. Look, the flight attendants can do no wrong. In today's world, they could do no wrong. They can't.

You can't look at, did you look at me funny? Get off the plane. I'm calling the federal authorities. Get off the plane. Oh, I was just saying that I want to get off. No one feels comfortable with you flying on this plane. and get off. And she's right.

Every step of the way, there's no, there's no way you win that fight. You just don't. So something's got to break at the airlines. And one of the things that should break is, I don't know, maybe the United CEO say, you know what? I really probably should be doing something else. That would be a good start. That would be a good start.

Now, we talked on this show a while ago about my purchase of a, my purchase of the new car, the rolls. And, you know, look, I know, I don't want to sound uppity. Not everybody can have a rolls, I get it. But there was an issue with the steering shaft intermediate coupler, remember? And I was pretty upset that they weren't going to fix it. Oh, that's, that's not a safety issue. We don't have to fix that.

However, here's what it will cost And we can get that done for you in two days We just want to leave it You know What I want is you to fix it I mean to drive away with a zero balance With this joint Okay, that's what I want

And I know that we made fun of We made fun of Auto Nation I don't want to say their name But you know we made fun of them And I just want to say that they Are going to fix the rules they're going to fix the steering shaft intermediate coupler for me after I wrote a strongly worded letter

and then and then I went and met with the I think he's the assistant general manager whatever his name was he called me and and we met so all you got to do is just write a strongly worded letter all you got to do you're good to go so anyway I want to thank the car dealership I don't remember

want to name who they are. And they were very kind. And my man Derek was very nice, very nice. And they're going to get it taken care of. Huh. Huh. So apparently, he believes that the steering shaft

intermediate coupler, who knew that it might be a safety issue? Huh. I'll be darned. This is the Jeff Fisher Show. on the Blaze Radio Network. The Jeff Fisher Show. Welcome to it. How in the world are you?

Thanks for coming along for the ride. This is the Jeff Fisher Show on the Blaze Radio Network. 888-903-33. All right, so Aaron Hernandez, we talked last week about him getting off on seven counts. Only they found him guilty on one count that was the weapons charge. Well, they found him hung earlier this week in his seven. cell. Now some strange, strange things are coming out of this. I mean, it was confirmed that he was

hanging in his cell, hung, apparently by, hung by himself with his bed sheets while he was in solitary confinement. However, it sounds like he was smoking synthetic marijuana before he died, a K2 or a spice for your hipsters and according to this article it's an illegal drug used for recreational use duh now it's interesting how someone in solitary

confinement could get that but hey why ask that question it's known to be much more dangerous than normal marijuana yes okay so it is confirmed that he was smoking it in solitary confinement before his death a lot of people claim that he would have never killed himself

That's one thing that Aaron would not have done. I kind of believe it. Although it may have been his last gift to the family, right? Because we'll find out whether the money that's tied up by courts and judges, maybe that gets released to the kids now, whether he kills himself or whether he got murdered, is irrelevant to that. I don't know.

I haven't found out that piece of the pie yet. but a Bible verse, especially one as famous as John 316, was found written on his forehead before, you know, after he died. So apparently he wrote it on his forehead, then hung himself. Now, if you're going to hang yourself,

and you're thinking, life is bad, I'm going to sit here and do a little K2. My solitary confinement cell, I just got another five years on my life sentence. So I'm life plus five. Man, this spice is good. And then the synthetic marijuana. Oh, no, I want to kill myself.

But I'm going to write a Bible verse on my forehead first. Doesn't seem like the thing you'd do. It just, to me, it doesn't seem like the thing that you would do. Does it? I know. It's fascinating. The guy, no matter what happens, is a fascinating guy. and it'll be interesting to see what comes of it.

And I hope this finally brings some peace, something to his family, because he's been a rough ride for them as well. And for him, no matter how he died and what the cause of it, it's over for him now too, right? Very sad. Very sad. Everyone else is such a talent.

But he was, you know, it was just sad. So anyway, if you be careful you start smoking K2 this is the Jeff Fisher show only on the Blaze Radio Network
