slash jeffey-dash-fisher. All right, so do we know, look, seriously, look and see if there's been
new news on Charlie Gard today. Because we were, we were expecting some other news.
And I know that I think we're waiting on one final ruling.
And the parents are struggling through the decision by the courts that the baby, Charlie, cannot leave the hospital.
They can't take him home.
They can't take him to another hospital.
They can't take him to the Vatican.
They can't take him to the U.S.
They've got hospitals in the U.S. saying they will treat him for free.
They have money.
They've raised money to help them pay for.
the help that their child needs to try to survive,
rather than let him die with dignity,
as the courts and the hospital have said that Charlie needs to do.
They have their website,
charlie's fight.org.
And on that website, there's a video posted by mom and dad.
And it's a few or four minutes,
and they're giving you an update.
of what's happening and how they want their baby home
and how much they love Charlie
and how frustrated they are
with the hospital and with the system
and they both look just beaten
down by the system
by this whole ordeal
and not just the system but
you know their child is struggling it's been since August
they're going through all this fight
and now as it nears what could possibly be
the end
the pressure is even more on top of them to provide information to the media,
provide information to the courts, provide information to the hospital,
when all they really want to do is just be with their baby.
And I got it.
I completely understand.
Side note, when I was growing up, I was taught.
You never know somebody might stop by the house,
so you've got to keep the front room picked up.
you go out somewhere on a trip
make sure you have fresh underwear on
clean your ears
and clothes
you never know what's going to happen
you get done
people are coming
somebody's coming over to the house
and let's say you
you're somebody's coming over to the house
and you know you've had a long week
and there's you know
shoes around the living room
clothes laying on
hanging over the sofa you're in a hurry
a couple of mornings
came home late
the house is a little messy
somebody's going to stop by
you know they're going to stop by
you tidy up a little
you don't have to you know you pick up
the place a fluff and run
we'll call it
a fluff and run
tidy up the house you don't have
you're not doing a deep clean you're not dusting
you're not cleaning windows you're not
waxing and mopping the
tile you're not
you know you don't even you probably should sweep
You probably should do a quick sweep on the carpet,
but you don't have to.
It just depends.
Just depends.
And I'm not talking about, you know,
running to, you know,
running to Lowe's and get the carpet cleaner.
I'm not talking about the deep clean on the carpets.
I'm not talking about bringing the,
you know, make the carpet cleaner van
pull up in front with the hoses
and, you know, clean the carpets.
And I don't any of that.
I'm not even talking about having the handheld carpet resolved.
cleaner clean up spots.
I don't even talk about that.
By the way, there's a fine cleaner at Lowe's.
Anyway, no, they are not a sponsor.
My point being is that when people are coming over,
you tidy up a little bit, right?
You don't want a place to look a mess.
So in today's world of videos,
cameras everywhere.
and you're home and you want to make a video
and you think we need to make a video
and we need to tell the world
what's happening in our lives.
Take a second on behalf of me
and look around the area that you're going to be filming
and say to yourself,
I probably should pick up these dirty clothes
and maybe perhaps throw a comforter over the bed
if we're going to film here in the bedroom.
So it just doesn't look all, I don't know,
messy, a shambles, a wreck.
Please, just for me, just for me.
And I happen to notice that just that screenshot
before you play the video,
the one that we were talking about earlier,
that the room that the couple is in a tad messy.
I know there are times in everyone's life
when things cannot be perfect
and you want the place clean and it just doesn't happen.
I got it.
But you would think you're going through this big thing.
The world's eyes are on you.
Perhaps maybe.
mom, dad, Aunt Judy, Uncle Joe,
stop by and give you a hand
and say,
I know you're really struggling.
I just thought I'd come by and tidy up a little.
Right?
There's a little, a little hell to stop by.
The laundry, tidy up fold.
Toss some stuff in the closet.
You know, hey,
Look, I noticed your camera there on the dresser,
and so I guess you're sitting on the bed
while you're making these videos.
Maybe we make the bed.
And look, I know you're traveling,
maybe move the suitcases out of the way a little bit,
just so they're not in a picture with clothing.
Maybe.
Now, I know that's just me.
So, you know, I just want to let you know that there are times
when you probably should listen to your grandmother
and, you know, just keep the same.
house tidy.
It doesn't have to be spotless.
You don't even have to use spick and span.
They don't even make spick and span anymore?
Remember the powdered box spick and span?
I don't know if they didn't make that anymore.
I have to check that out the next time I go to the cleaning aisle.
You know, for the helpers.
I wish I had helpers.
Tell you that.
Anyway, it's just a, I'm not beating up on anyone in particular.
It's just a friendly real.
reminder. It made me watching the particular video on Charlie's Fight.org brought these memories
back of maybe tidy up a little bit before you let people into your house. It's all.
Or you let them into your house. And by let them into your house in today's world, that means
filming a video. As you've let us into your home. Speaking of Spick and Span, you know that there
There was a big article on how some of these companies, the older companies like hamburger
helper, are struggling.
They're struggling now.
The old classics, the Franco-Americans, the Ancimima.
We talked a little bit about the Anchamima pancake mix.
The hamburger helper, the Campbell soups, all the old classics are really struggling.
now and because there's so many things to choose from.
Now think of that.
In today's world, you go to a grocery store, there's like 40,000 items.
I mean, that's a lot of choices.
That's a lot of choice.
If I would protest that.
That's capitalism.
I freaking hate capitalism, man.
I do not want choices.
Okay.
I want to be told what to eat, when to eat, how much to eat.
That's it.
I, man, do I hate capitalism?
Oh, I wish I could be protesting with those people in Hamburg right now, those G-10.
Capitalism bad.
Welcome to hell!
I wish I could be with those people, but I can't.
But I'm with you in heart, okay?
Because, oh, man, I hate going to a grocery store and having to make a decision.
Hate it.
Hate it.
But it makes me wonder why these brands are struggling like that, because while they're
there are a lot of brands to, I think they're just,
I think we're just remembering them wrong.
You know, like, when I say forced to eat something as a child,
you know, it wasn't, of course, no, would you be forced?
It was good.
Yeah, but, you know, given the choice of Franco-American spaghetti
with cut-up co-co-hot dogs for dinner,
a can of Franco-American spaghetti with cut-up cocoa hot dogs for dinner,
given a choice of that or I don't know.
I don't know, maybe
you know, 10-ounce
sirloin with the sweet potato
and some green beans. A choice
between that and that. Perhaps I take
the sirloin. So, I mean,
when times, look,
when at that time
you're lucky to have food on this table, kid,
okay? And I brought
home a case of canned tomatoes from the
grocery store. Go bring them in the house.
And do you remember
those days I used to can the
Oh, he used to canned tomatoes.
What a god-awful smell.
The whole house reeked to those freaking tomatoes.
And then they'd make, you know what, my grandmother,
and my uncles and my dad used to make his,
can't even, it's made with cabbage.
And it's, I can't think what it's called now.
It's so bad I put it out of my head.
It stinks, it reeks, it's cabbage.
No.
Yes.
They'd bake this god-awful sourcrow.
And they had the, oh my God, the whole house would reek of the sour nastiness.
You just come in at that time, we lived on an old farmhouse.
I could remember going in and seeing that pot that they used to make the sourcrow in.
So I knew that it was sourcrow day.
I am out of here.
Man, I'm playing in the barn.
I'm rolling in cow poop.
I'm doing anything.
I'm cleaning the chicken coop.
I'm doing anything but wanting to walk in that house
and smell that god-awful sourcrow.
Oh, man.
So that's what I mean.
I think we're remembering that stuff wrong.
Perhaps, perhaps maybe hamburger helper needs to hit the bricks.
Because when's the last time you had it, really?
Really?
When's the last time you had it?
See what I mean?
You're just remembering,
oh, yeah, mom used to go out on,
used to bowl on Tuesday,
so dad would make hamburger helper.
Dad would go on a golfing tournament on Thursday,
so mom had to make us tuna helper.
And then cool day on Monday.
It was a tough day.
It was Monday.
And we each had a can of Franco-American spaghetti
with a cut-up hot dog in it.
And I think you look back at it go,
oh, they were so good.
You know what?
No, no they weren't.
Here we go.
This is the Jeff Fisher Show on the Blaze Radio Network.
This is the Jeff Fisher Show.
Welcome to it.
888-903-33 is the phone number.
So apparently the G20 has closed up and Angela slammed a little bit of President Trump as she was all wound up that Trump, you know, backed out of the climate.
But then she was tried to be happy because.
We're not having a trade war.
We've got to have...
We're all against unfair trade practices.
But my gosh,
this him, Donald Trump,
coming out of the Paris Climate Agreement,
is...
The rest of the countries are committed to it,
even if President Trump is not.
Good for you, Angola.
You guys can all share your little money
and make some more money off of us,
but you're not making any more cash
from the U.S.
a little Paris climate change accord.
I'm sorry, it's an agreement.
Oh, I apologize.
Okay.
Makes me ill.
Ill.
Take it.
And don't it.
No.
You know what?
I won't say that.
One of the things that I found fascinating in figuring out that, you know, we talked a little bit
about hamburger helper, struggling.
And Nestle's wanting to.
sell their candy division and people were like, oh my God, I can't believe Nesley's going under.
You know, when you go to the Nesley website and it says, welcome to nesley global.com,
do you wish to go to the U.S. website?
And so you go to the U.S. website and they have separate sections for every product.
But Nesles, Nestle has 447.
factories in 86 countries.
They have about 330,000 employees,
sell the products in 196 countries,
the world's leading nutrition, health,
and wellness company,
with an unmatched portfolio
of more than 2,000 global and local brands.
So when you think of a company like Nestle's saying,
You know, we're looking to, you know, maybe spin off some of this chocolate candy stuff.
Not real crazy about that right now.
They're still going to be okay.
And I'm guessing that the Nestle division is only struggling a little.
They might be down.
Like, they may have estimated, you know, we forecast that we were going to make $18 billion this year.
and boy did we have a rough year
we only made $15 billion
we lost forecasted
$3 billion
we need to sell
but wait you still made
$15 billion
I know but we thought we were going to make $18
so
I mean times are tough
times are tough
we forecasted it we were going to make
$18 billion and so
we put an ad campaign together
that we planned on making
at least 17-5, and we only made $15 billion,
so we need to sell this.
I mean, I think they'll be okay.
Now, as far as hamburger helper, have a nice day.
Get up, pull it off the shelves right now immediately.
Tuna helper too.
Oh, God.
Oh, God, tuna cassero.
Oh.
Tell me, tell me you weren't forced to eat that as a child.
Tell me.
Now, they said that macaroni and cheese,
the regular craft macaroni and cheese was struggling.
I kind of find that hard to believe, but maybe.
They've got the little, you know, the microwave packs that are kind of nice,
but those aren't the same as the box with the real powdered cheese.
The real macaroni and cheese, butter cheese?
I mean, come on.
Milk, stick of butter, powdered cheese and noodles.
You don't get much better than a box of macaroni and cheese from Kraft.
I'll tell you that.
Well, that's not really true.
Oh, you put a little pepper out in that crap macaroid cheese.
Now you're talking.
Now you're living large right there.
Got to have some pepper on the back running cheese.
This is the Jeff Fisher Show.
Only on the Blaze Radio Network.
The Jeff Fisher Show.
Wow, look at the footage from Hamburg.
And it looks like the president, President Donald J. Trump, has not left yet.
and the Air Force One is awaiting his arrival.
But, wow, the security is a nightmare.
I mean, they have got police and security and military road up,
shoulder to shoulder, not to bobby, they are back to back.
It's very bad.
And in fact, when they say, when the protests, welcome to hell.
They mean it.
I mean it.
I'm with you.
Anti-capitalism.
I'm with them 100%.
All right.
So I want to talk a little bit of something.
It's kind of personal to me.
And, you know, we don't cover a lot of...
I don't talk a lot about personal things with me on the show.
I try to keep it, you know, serious.
And yet, this is a little personal to me.
August 5th and 6th in Tulsa, Oklahoma.
anything to yourself, Jeff.
Why in God's name would you want to go to Tulsa, Oklahoma?
Well, that's a good question.
Why?
Because there is a Walker-stalker con happening, the 5th and 6th in Tulsa, Oklahoma.
And as you know, we do a podcast and a vidcast from the Jeff Fisher Show, affiliated,
on Walking Dead and on Fear, The Walking Dead, those two shows.
We do that throughout the year whenever the season is on.
And our numbers are pretty darn good, I would say, for the viewing of those shows.
And plus we get cross-promotion on other shows, the network, talking about them.
And so I was thinking, hey, wouldn't it be interesting, and we could broadcast live.
Take the show to Walker, StalkerCon.
broadcast this show live from Tulsa
at the Walker StalkerCon
and then get some interviews
with some of the Walking Dead people
and fear of the Walking Dead people
and use them for our podcast and this show
and yeah it'd be kind of cool
we meet some people
and you know
just kind of be friends and hang out
you know broadcast a show
so I thought hey
that's a good idea we should probably do that
and so I sent an email out to Walker StalkerCon
and that was June 23rd.
June 23rd, I sent that right out.
And I got a reply right back, right back from Walker Stalker Khan
that said,
Thank you for applying to be considered
as pressed a Walker-stalker-Con.
If approved, you'll receive an email
with further instructions.
And then underneath it had my Walker-Stalker-Cocker-Con
pressed request form.
Today is July 8th, 2017.
I have not heard back
from Walker-Salker-Con.
I have not...
I got an email.
So I'm guessing that that means
since I don't have an email
with further instructions,
I'm not good enough for their freaking Walker StalkerCon.
I almost want to just show up at protest.
Be in the G20 protesters, man.
Welcome to hell outside of Walker Stalker Khan in Tulsa, Oklahoma, man.
I'll show up in my rag gear.
Broadcast live.
Fiss high for Walker Stalker Con.
Or just stay home.
I can do that or I can just stay home and be mad and say,
they didn't want me there.
They don't want the show there.
Brad, he's not going to go.
Jason, nah, Sean, nah, never mind.
Wife, kids, go to walk.
Nah, we're not going to go.
We're not going to spend a weekend in Tulsa,
just to hang out.
We're just going to stay home.
Or, you can show up in riot gear.
I'm not threat.
I don't want to threaten.
I don't want to make this into any kind of threat
to Walker, Soccer Con, because I don't want them to take it that way.
I just want them to know that if Ride Gear protests show up,
it's me, fist high.
Okay?
That's all.
That's all.
I just had to get that off my chest a little bit.
I mean, there is no other reason, and I apologize, Tulsa.
But there is no other reason in my life that I would say,
you know, we should go to Tulsa.
I just wouldn't happen.
I don't see it happening.
So if this is an opportunity to be a part of an event and say,
afterwards.
Yep, I've been to Tulsa.
Been there.
Pretty town.
You know, okay.
But this is your one shot, Tulsa.
That's right.
This is your one shot to get Jeff Fisher
and the Walking Dead Entourage
broadcast in your town.
That's it.
Okay.
Because if you think after this,
without a reply from walking,
stalker, stalker con, that I'm going to say, you know, why don't we just go to Tulsa anyway?
Not going to happen.
And if someone were to say, hey, Jeff, you know, we just thought we'd take a little road trip and go to Tulsa.
No, thanks.
New things.
Appreciate it.
Have a nice day.
As I look up at the screen, I see that the wonderful Mitch McConnell.
You know, Senator Mitch McConnell from the great.
state of Kentucky.
Everybody's all wound up, and the headline is White House
Surprise by Senator McConnell's suggestion that the GOP might need to work with Democrats
to prop up health care.
Why are they surprised?
Mitch McConnell, that's what he does.
That's what he does.
He bends over for them all the time.
It's what he's been doing it for eight years or more.
It's not a surprise.
A turtle face is bending over for health care.
Okay?
It's not a surprise.
So stop doing your stupid.
Headline.
Hey, hey.
Yesterday was World Chocolate Day.
I thought we were celebrating today.
I thought
my producers were going to be bringing in chocolate.
Hello?
It's like they can't even hear me.
It's like I'm just talking.
It's like I'm talking to it.
Nope.
World Chocolate Day.
Do we need a world?
I mean, I'm glad you're celebrating.
If you're going to celebrate something, you might as well celebrate World Chocolate Day,
but as a human being on the planet Earth right now,
I'm trying to think of a day that I haven't celebrated chocolate being an ingredient on Earth.
I don't know that there is one.
I don't know that there is one.
In other news, obesity now kills more people worldwide than a car crashes,
terror attacks, or Alzheimer's combined.
Huh.
This is the Jeff Fisher Show on the Blaze Radio Network.
This is the Jeff Fisher Show.
Oh, my goodness.
Yes, indeed.
Thank you so much for coming along for the ride today.
Lawrence Jones, he's around here somewhere, ready to take over at the helm of the Blaze Radio Network,
and then Mike Slater, and then Joe Pags.
My gosh, that's your Saturday lineup on the Blaze Radio Network.
And then tomorrow you've got Jackie Daley.
kicks us off.
And then David Barton, Bill Handel, Yaron Brooks, gun talk, Hollywood 360.
There really is no need for you to go anywhere else.
You don't need to lock it in to anyplace else, but the blaze.com slash radio.
I'm going to take a little moment here and talk inside baseball for just a moment.
Why that is in there, I don't know, but that could be fixed.
So just replace it with a fill.
I give a fill.
Okay.
I hope you're taking care of that.
Are you?
Yes or no.
Was that on the air, I hope?
See, you've got to talk to me out of the air.
This is, this is, I'm not Rush Limbaugh.
This is Jeff Fisher.
No kidding.
That's not a joke.
We know you're not rushed, Jeff, okay?
You don't even have to remind us of that.
I got it.
Never mind.
I don't want you to talk about.
Your impression to me is uncanny.
I don't want you to talk to that.
Did you know that you could be an extroverted introvert?
Wait, what?
That's right.
Did you know that?
Because I sure was like it.
I didn't realize that you could be an extroverted introvert.
However, as I go down the list, I see, okay, I see what they're saying.
Like, you're great with people until you're not.
You have social anxiety.
You love being alone, but still get lonely.
You can meet anyone.
You find friendships that need maintenance.
Exhausting.
Sometimes you're bad at messaging.
You don't like compliments.
You're happiest in cafes.
You like going out, but then you'll want to just leave.
You want to just ghost.
I mean, that's like you still want to, I'm not going to go to the party, but I still want to be invited.
I mean, you know I don't, you know I'm not going to go to the party.
But of course I want to be invited.
You know that.
But it just seemed kind of strange that we would actually have.
It's just a weird person as all rather than an extroverted introvert.
Okay.
No problem.
And I also saw that on Netflix, they have a new interactive show.
Now, I realize this is just the beginning of the Netflix-Amazon Hulu experiment.
in the world, which I'm becoming more and more of a fan of,
and I'm close to cutting cable again.
I think Hulu is just getting ready to have a live streaming service.
And if Hulu goes to the live streaming service, I'm cutting the cable,
getting rid of them again, I'm tired of messing with them.
But their new Netflix interactive episode,
you'd think that it would be, I don't know.
I don't know. You're in charge of the story, but it's more of...
For children?
It's the new episode of Puss and Book,
trapped in an epic tale.
Gives users more than a dozen decision points throughout his length,
giving young viewers reason to re-watch it several times
to explore the branching pass.
Now, I'd be okay with that with adult entertainment.
Movies?
Ooh.
No, don't do that here.
Do this and choose your direction.
The other than you're just practicing of the kids.
Get the kids used to it.
Because I'm all for it.
I'm all for being interactive and making shows go whatever direction I want.
It'd be fun.
It'd be fun.
No, but instead I have to watch Puss and Book.
Trapped.
It's an epic tale.
No, thank you.
No, thank you.
Anyway, thanks for coming along for the ride today.
You know, as we, and I joked around earlier about a little bit about the Charlie Guard story,
you may want to reach out and find a way that helped this family because, you know, it's not going to be,
we're not too far away here in America from having a hospital.
it'll say, you know what, you can't take your kid.
And they're already doing it to some extent.
Sometimes we've already seen a couple of those stories.
But when you want to take your child out to get help somewhere else,
and they say, no, you can't,
and you're not going to take it anywhere else,
and you're just going to stay right here.
That's a problem.
That's a real problem.
So you better hope that your health care,
gets taken care of from these dingleberries in Washington
and not let Mitch McConnell
and Chuck Schumer
decide your fate
because if that happens,
doomed we are.
Doomed we are.
Have a good week.
We'll see you next week on the Blaze Radio.
Remember, you know, normally I tell you that, you know, you look good or anything you wear, but you really don't.
So let's just get over that today.
Okay, but just I do want you to remember that you have 1,440 minutes in every day.
Don't waste them.
Ah, see?
Uplifting.
Uplifting.
This is the Jet Azure show.
Seriously, it was.
Only on the Blaze Radio Network.
