And now, chewing the fat with Jeff Fisher. It's been a long time since I have been in the hospital. And it's been a long time since I've been in the hospital where you've had to share a room. I'm sure that they still do it. I'm sure it still happens. I've just been a long time since I've actually been in a hospital where I've had to share a room. And I'm reminded of, you know, I can remember seeing my grandfather in the hospital one and he shared a room with this another old guy that had double knee surgeries and he came back and

he was all crazy on, you know, on medication and he woke up in the middle of the night screaming, you know, what kind of worms do you use? And my grandfather for years after that would just tap me on the shoulder and go, what kind of worms do you use? And it was just a reminder of when he was in the hospital with this old guy. So I see this story from Germany. Oh, big surprise. They're sharing hospital rooms in Germany.

A 72-year-old woman has been arrested after she switched off the roommate's ventilator because she was sick of the noise it was making. Can we plead get someone to shut this thing off? Oh, no? All right, well, I'm just going to shut it off. So she switched it off. And then the staff came back in because when you turn the machines off, obviously the nurses get the alert that, hey, you know, bed two's ventilators not

working so they got to come in and check it out oh who shut the machine off i did i'm sick of hearing it okay it's bugging me well you can't do that that's what they told her no no no it's vital to the patient okay you can't shut it off yeah yeah yeah they leave she shuts it off again i can't take it get it off i can't want to hear that noise anymore so they switched it back on again and uh i don't doesn't say here that they moved her to a different room, which seems to be the common sense thing to do. One or the other could be moved. Maybe, I don't know, you tie down the lady that's sicking. I don't know. I don't know what else that you would do. But she, according to this, it's going to be a tough case to prove, really. I don't know what they're going to do because

she's, you know, been arrested for, and arrested and charged for, attempted manslaughter. Well, she wasn't okay. She wasn't trying to kill him. She just wanted the damn machine shut off. And, well, she, they said it was vital to her survival.

Yeah, but they also say in this story, they had to revive the 79-year-old lady, but her life was not in danger. Okay, well, which is it? If you had to revive her, I'm

guessing her life was in danger. Okay, attempted manslaughter. I don't know. I mean, maybe the judge says, let's make sure you leave the ventilator on. Get out of here. That's, you know what? That's what's going to happen.

Just make sure you don't turn the ventilator off anymore, okay? Case closed. Get out of here. That's what's going to happen. Right. welcome. Welcome. Welcome to Chewing the Fat. All right, well, we have, well, it's kind of like breaking news today as we record Chewing the Fat. Carpool Karaoke, the series, is going to return.

Yay! With the new season. And they have released a clip from the one carpool karaoke that has Hillary Clinton Chelsea Clinton Amber Ruffin And Vanessa Williams Breaks my heart with Vanessa Williams Being with Hillary I mean I remember Vanessa Williams

In her penthouse days And you don't get those days back I love Vanessa Williams That's embarrassing the way she looks at me But she's doing carpool karaoke with Hillary Oh man And they are singing I will survive

the Gloria Gainer song. And you can imagine. In fact, in fact, we should hear a little bit of carpool karaoke because it returns. For those of you listening live, it is the 9th of December, 2022.

And oh my gosh, Carpool karaoke with Hillary and Chelsea and Amber and Vanessa returns. And this is a little sample. I'm on my side. I spent so many nights. I think of how you did you're wrong when I were strong

But that's just one I didn't get along with his face I mean When I said, Look at your face I should have changed that stupid lock I should have made you to leave me But that's just one second

You'd be back to bother me You want to go I mean Walk out the door Now We're all singing Everybody Aren't you the one who tried to hurt me with your eyes?

You think I crumbled. You'll think I'll lay down and die. Oh, no, not. I'm in carpool karaoke. Oh, Hillary goes nowhere without Chelsea now. Chelsea's her handler. Oh, Amber. Oh.

Oh, it's so fun. We're just having such a good time. Oh, man, that is something to look forward to to see the entire episode of that, huh? No. No. Oh, my gosh. We are in. No, it's fun, fun.

You know, the thing is, he must be making a fortune, right? What's his face? Carpool karaoke dingleberry that's quitting the late, late show. Right? What's his stupid name? Yeah, James Gordon. And he's quitting now, right? He's got to go back to England and he's tired of living in the U.S.

And he wants to be with his family. Do you, James? Okay. But this has got to be a fortune, right? This was his deal. I mean, it's James Gordon. It's his deal. He enjoyed the musicians.

He enjoyed singing with them. They had fun. They made it look like they were actually driving around the city singing. But they really weren't. they were just driving on a trailer in a parking lot. It was a good bit. It was an awesome bit. And now we're stuck with this.

I mean, they've got to be paying him some big cash for this. Good for him. Those of you that were looking forward to the Nick Carter Christmas special coming up in a few days on ABC, that's not going to happen. Okay, he's in mourning for the loss of his brother, which we're obviously all sad about. But he was accused of sexually assaulting this girl back in 2001 when she was 17.

And I will say this. I watched the press conference with Shannon Shea Ruth, who has autism and cerebral palsy. Her accusations were believable, man. I mean, I was ready to hang Nick Carter after she got done talking, man. And there's other people that have come forward and said that the same thing happened to them. You know, she alleges that he took her to the bus bathroom, ordered her to perform oral sex on him, and then raped her. And raped her again after she was crying and he told her that she couldn't tell anybody,

you know who I am, that kind of stuff. incredible. And I have another question. That's just for a second. Okay, so I feel real sorry for this girl. All right. But in the story, in the story, and the press conference, she says,

Carter called me a retarded little bitch. Okay. How come we have to, when did we stand? We can't say retarded anymore. It always gets beeped out. Always. You can't, I mean, that's the new N-word. So it's, it's,

N-word and re-h-word. I'm sorry, R-word, N-word, C-word. There's just words we can't say anymore. I cannot tell you how much I hate that. I cannot tell you how much I hate that. So, any, that's just a side note. I was just, I was watching this thing, and I didn't watch it live, I apologize.

So I was watching a taped, a taped recording of, I was probably digitally recorded, Jeff, I know. I was watching a recording of, the press conference and so that they beep out uh re-hearted i just address me we could say sure yeah go ahead say bitch nobody cares that's fine you know talk about rape go ahead yeah you could say that you can talk about oral sex but how don't you dare say re-hearted i just i don't understand but anyway she looked and sounded believable and apparently ABC thought so too because uh in the stories yesterday they were

still saying he was mourning his brother, didn't want to comment on this, but they were getting, still working on the Christmas show. Nope. Not anymore. ABC, Disney, they just,

they let the ABC GMA3 couple go for taking care of business all over town when they weren't on the air and probably when they were on the air. Oh, we got three minutes before we get back from break. Yeah, okay, let's take care of a little business. So they're not going to do this,

let Nick, no, Nick. Go ahead. We love you, but you need to take care of this first. Good luck. Good luck, Nick. Look, I know it happened a long time ago. I know. And, you know, she's 39 now. She doesn't look 39. But she's 39 now. And, you know, I normally, I'm not a big fan of these, you know, 100 years later things. It wasn't 100 years, Jeff. I know. But, you know, I just, this is something that was so traumatizing to this girl. And, you know, as I said, she has autism and cerebral palsy. And she was already struggling and she was so happy.

I mean, I felt so sorry. You know, she's there to see Nick Carter in the Backstreet Boys. And she gets called in. She's in the VIP. She spent money for the VIP. She gets called in and he wants to take her on the bus. And she's excited. And then this dirt bag does this.

I just want, you know, even if they say the statute of limitations have run out or whatever, he's done because that, you just don't be doing that. And apparently he has the sexually transmitted disease that he gave to her, and he's given to other people. So, you know, it's kind of a, I don't know, a trace of Nick left there. And she's really suffered for these years. I mean, I felt really, I wanted, I wanted whatever money, Carter has should go to her from now you know she should never have to think about that again

in fact anytime she walks anywhere there's a nick carter poster it should just burn as it just just burned oh is that a nope you don't have to worry about it you never have to see him again it was it was really bad and i know i i'm with you on the why didn't you do something then this particular case you know she was struggling already he you know obviously tormented her saying that no one believer nothing would happen it just was really bad and so we'll see what comes of it and i know it's just you know it's just accusations now but she was very believable and uh if i believed her and a bc believed her uh a court will believe her so uh nick good luck god bless buddy and then you have the case of mad eriza is it eriza arisa you know the punter from buffalo uh who was

I mean, he was drafted, he was going to play in the NFL, his career was going, he went to San Diego State. He was now, and then he was arrested because he allegedly, along with other football players, gang raped this girl. And it's a horrible story. And the girl said she can't stop thinking about it. It was off campus at a Halloween party when she was 17. Now, at the time, Matt was 21. and according to this girl had asked for oral sex and had sex in the side yard, and then she was gang raped by the other players.

And she said, I never told him that I was of age and he never asked, and that she couldn't get over it. And then when he was drafted, she reported it the next day, and the police looked into it and there was not enough evidence. They looked into it and there was not enough evidence. So then it all came out again, he was drafted in the NFL, he's going to go play for the Buffalo Bills. And she was sick and was in the bathroom bar.

It made me sick. I puked all day. I just couldn't believe it. It was too bland. And so the press got hold of it again, and they went ahead and they arrested him and charged him. And then he started investigating. He was accused of this all over again.

Buffalo Bills caught him. Have a nice day. Good luck. God bless. You got other pressing issues. You're not going to be kicking in the NFL. Okay. So now, what has happened since to Matt?

Oh, oh, you mean they're not going to press charges against them? Yeah, no. Look, we're not going to face criminal charges. No. We reviewed the evidence and included 35 taped witnesses, interviews, and evidence derived from 10 search warrants. After first getting the San Diego Police Department's investigation on August 5th, the San Diego district attorney's office.

We're not recommending any criminal charges filed where there's no evidence of that Matt did anything. Wow. Okay. Matt was drafted sixth round. It was already going to work for the Buffalo Bills. So it cost him a lot of money. It cost him a livelihood.

And I guess there's still a civil trial pending. We'll see what happens with that. But this is a case where you know you accuse someone and he's automatically guilty not really so I'll go back to you know what Nick Carter could be innocent I apologize Nick I was just going by the evidence and going by what the how the what the girl sounded like is it possible that you're

innocent you betcha do I believe innocent until proven guilty you betcha again though good luck all right let's go to the break room I need something cold to drink desperately. I can't get Gloria Gainer out of my head. All I want to do is saying I will survive. I know. That's it.

So Gloria Garner, I will survive. Had to have come out early 80s. All right? Let's take a look. Early 80s. That's what I was. Gloria Gainer. I released, I released 1978.

I wonder when it was a hit, though. Hold on. It was released in 78. And so it peaked at number one in 79, so it didn't take it long. So it didn't take it long. Anyway, I just can't stop thinking about Gloria Gaynor and I will survive. And that's all Hillary's fault. There's stupid carpal karaoke.

Have you watched Wednesday yet on Netflix? I mean, the series is now Netflix's third most popular English language TV series ever. Behind Stranger Things and Dahmer. Monster, the Jeffrey Domney story. And premiered on November 16th, it's amassed 752.52 million hours viewed.

Wow. Stranger Things in Dahmer has surpassed a billion hours viewed within 60 days of release. At this rate, Wednesday appears to be on track to hit the similar milestone. Squid Game, of course, is the most popular series of all time.

Wednesday held on to the number one slot this week. 411.29 million hours viewed. So have you watched it yet? Are you one of the people that haven't? Because I'm one of the people who haven't and I feel like I'm completely lost. I will watch it this weekend because football season is kind of over now.

We're heading into the bowl season. And so my weekends are, my Saturdays are freed up. Oh, Jeff, the Army Navy game is on this weekend. Like I said, my Saturday, have freed up. So I can get back to watching some of those shows. I watched the show last night.

I'm sorry, I'm getting on TV and watching the views because I have watched I'm part way through bullet train with Brad Pitt. I kind of like it. I'm enjoying it. It looks like it's going to be a funer. I watched a movie on Hulu last night.

My wife says, have you seen this? My wife says, she said, yeah, she spoke. And she said, there's a show. on Hulu called Joe with, what's his face? You know, what's his face? Nicholas Cage, Nicholas Cage.

So he's in this movie, Joe. And I didn't realize that it was from 2013. And it was filmed. It was in Texas. And they hired a homeless guy. I made me, I started reading about it after I watched it. And they hired a homeless guy out of Austin to play one of the co-stars of the movie. And then he ended up dying a few years later, drowning.

but he was a real homeless guy and had some, you know, some issues with people. It was just a fascinating kind of story. And it's not necessarily a true story, I don't think. An ex-con as a role model to a 15-year-old boy. You know, the thing that you see that I caught, the thing that stands out with Joe is that even though he struggled with life, he was still a good person deep down. And when he saw the end of him,

injustice is happening to this little boy he wanted to help. Now, Joe worked for a big money man who wanted to plant new trees, but he couldn't plant new trees on his property unless the old trees were dead, and the old trees were bad wood. So what Joe did was go around and poison the trees so that they would die and cut them down. Once they started dying, they could cut them down and plant new trees. So once Joe die, oh, I'm going to spoil. This is a spoiler for Joe.

it was from 2013. Once Joe dies, then the kid, once Joe dies saving the life of this little kid, the kid goes to work for the guy only not on the killing tree side, but on the planting tree side. So it's about a movie about redemption and rebirth and living again.

So, Nicholas Cage. Stayed at his house once. San Francisco. Yeah, we stayed when we went there to the Super Bowl, When we went there as a show for the Super Bowl and we did a bunch of interviews, you probably saw some of the stupid interbat and I did interviews.

We were there for the, we were there for the Super Bowl weekend, but we weren't there for the Super Bowl. Okay, we went there for the Super Bowl weekend. We were there for the big party. We did a bunch of interviews, and then we got left. I was back home to watch the Super Bowl

in my own living room. Hey, look, there's the stadium. Yeah, you're not going to go to it, though. Not when the game's on. That's not. happening. Okay, fat man, you get out of this plane, you're going back to Texas. Oh, okay. So, anyway, when we were living in San Francisco, we stayed at what was once Nicholas Cage's house. It was the house that he bought when he married Lisa Marie. And needed a little work. It was

starting to get a little work done. It was nice. It was about like, I don't know, three or four stories. It was a nice place. I will say it was a nice place. probably spent a lot more than it was worth but it was a nice place and the poop on the streets and the homeless people were not as bad when we were there but it was getting there

I mean you make it quick you start walking downtown we walked all over uh how one day we spent a whole day just wandering around looking at all these anyway

uh you make turn a corner tense and we'll go the other way and we can walk around for a while turn a corner tense. I would go the other way. I mean, if you're a business,

I don't know how you survive. And it's a lot worse now. So, as I said to Nick Carter, San Francisco, good luck, God bless. So I don't know if you watched the gaming awards last night. I am forced to watch those

in my house. And I enjoy them. And the thing it ticks me off, you know, about them. Just to the side note, it ticks me off that I don't get have any voice work on those. I love those stupid games.

I want to be a voice in one of the games. Why am I not one of those? I mean, Pacino awarded the performance of the year, went to Christopher Judge for War God or God of War, Raganock, whatever the heck the name of the game is.

And he wouldn't shut up. Oh, my gosh, agonizing. I mean, they actually, they had to go out and buy a piano and bring it in and then start playing it so he knew that it was time for him to end it was never ending it was really strange Pacino was really funny I uh when he walked out on stage he started talking I could see and I said I was in the literally I was a little I said he can't see the teleprompter so right in the middle of him talking he stops and he goes I can't see the telephrape laugh ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha that was awesome

he had to fess up because it was just there was no way it was going to happen it was actually really funny. He was awesome. So anyway and you know everybody's got their awards. And I made world premieres of new games and all that stuff and we got to find out when it will be on PC or is it on is it on Twitch exclusively? And we get to see all that. You know,

good for them. But at the end Eldon Ring was up on stage as they were winning the game awards. And this kid walks up on stage with him. Nobody knows who he is. The Eldon Ring crew are walking.

up on the stage and this kid you can see in the video from another aisle just joins them on the stairway on up to the stage and they're saying they're giving their thank yous and this kid is just standing behind them just standing behind him like I'm just waiting for my turn to speak as they're

thanking everybody and best because of you thank you so much oh thank you okay here it comes thank you we're done we're off the stage play the music get them off

I want to thank everybody and say that I think I want to nominate this award to my reformed orthodox rabbi Bill Clinton. Thank you, everybody. As he's talking, the Eldon Ring crew were like, who is this guy? What's going on? What's happening? What are we doing? So apparently, he wanted to thank his special reform rabbi, Bill Clinton. I don't know what that means.

I don't know what it is It's got to be a joke somewhere in there I don't know what it is And I don't know if he just said he wanted to thank He wanted to nominate and thank his special reform Rabbi Bill Clinton So you know what So do I

I want to thank my special reform rabbi Bill Clinton Thank you Good night everybody Okay not really good night And speaking of gaming's I see where Microsoft $69 billion

acquisition of Activision Blizzard and we're going to go ahead and put a little stop to that. Just hold back on that a little bit. Regulators filed a lawsuit against the tech giant alleging that it's planned to buy

the Call of Duty Maker would give it an unfair advantage over rivals in the gaming industry and we'll see. I mean, this is a big antitrust action brought about against Microsoft. And it's going to be legacy defining, man.

We'll see what happens. I know FTC Commissioner Lena Kahn. Is it Lina or Lena? L-I-N-A-Kahn, who has pledged to crack down on big tech consolidation. So Microsoft, Activision with your $69 billion deal. I mean, again, from chewing the fat. Good luck. God bless. Boarding for flight 246 to Toronto is delayed 50 minutes.

She's talking with Viola Davis. And she makes an amazing claim in this interview. I remember when I was doing Hunger Games.

Nobody had ever put a woman in the lead of an action movie. Wait, what? Because it wouldn't work. We were told. girls and boys can both identify with a male lead but boys cannot identify with a female lead oh absolutely and it just makes me so happy every single time

I see a movie come out that just blows through every single one of those beliefs and you realize that it's all bull yeah and Viola I thought you were smarter than that I really absolutely absolutely how you didn't lean forward and say Jen I love you in Hunger Games

and I love the whole series and we watched them all I own them all I own them digitally I own some on DVD but you weren't the first okay babe

maybe the whole alcohol thing and you need to stop I know you're some hot chick from wherever Tennessee or Kentucky and nobody thinks to your this brainchild believe me but there were a few women before you, babe.

Okay. The Hollywood female stars in action movies didn't start and end with you, Jen. Okay? Wow. There were a few movies. There were a few movies way before Hunger Games. In this article alone, it talks about Resident Evil

with Milo Jonovic, K. Beckett's sale in 2002, with Underworld, Uma Thurman, Kill Bill, Angelina Joe Lee, Laura Croft, a twice in Tomb Raider. And what about when was salt? Maybe salt was after Hunger Games,

but salt was awesome. Anyway, Nikita. And maybe, and in this article it talks about, she may also owe three stars of Charlie's Angels an apology.

A few dozen years later. Yeah, Jen. I love you, babe. Not really. But, you know, you're good to look at, and I just don't want to hear you. Okay. So, you know, I know Viola isn't there to question. She's just there because she's Viola Davis,

and she's all about empowering women and people of color in Hollywood. And so she's got you, Jennifer Lawrence, sitting down for a variety magazine. I don't know what variety spent on it. And they're not going to question anything you say. Absolutely. To quote Viola Davis. Absolutely. No?

Speaking, as long as we're talking about Hollywood and the greatness that is Hollywood there with Jennifer Lawrence, did you see the Will Smith interview on The Daily Show with Trevor Noah, who is gone now? Oh, no! That was his last week.

He's over. Trevor, the Daily Show is done. Oh, no. They're going to have guest hosts all over. And he's off doing whatever it is that Trevor Noah does. Just, that's what, doing

whatever he does. I don't know what he does, but he's off doing it. Because he had a very demanding schedule. This is what they said. They said, anyway, he had Will Smith on. And Will Smith is

trying to explain his reaction that night, you know, the slap night with Chris Rock. So he's still back. I mean, holy cow, Will. You know, you got movies coming out and, you know, I don't know, it's going to be a while. It's going to be a while. I love Will Smith's work, but it's going to be a while before, you know, you get past seeing Will Smith and not thinking about the slap. And I don't know that you ever do. I don't know that you ever do. If you, you know, there are. You know, there are. plenty of actors that you have to get past like Robert De Niro. I love De Niro's work, but it takes a while now for me to get past him the douchebag of Robert De Niro

to get into the movie part, even if it was an old movie. I go to what I love the, I love some of the old De Niro movies and I have to stop it before I push play and get myself into the mindset of it's Robert De Niro in the movie. It's not real life. Let the douche bag stuff go. And then you can put that I can push play. Because it's not going to get by it. So Will's little reaction with Trevor Noah about the slap is very interesting.

And this is a clip from the Today Show. I want to give, you know, give them their due props. Over night, Will Smith speaking out. At the end of the day, I just lost it. On the daily show with Trevor Noah in his first major sit-down interview since he slapped Chris Rock on stage at the Oscars. I forgot about the situation. Agonizing.

I was gone. I was, um, you know, that was a, um, you know, that was a rage that had been bottled for a really, was it, Will. I've always wanted to be Superman. I've always wanted to swoop in and save the damsel in distress, you know. You know. You know. It was the, the, the little boy that watched his father beat up his mother.

You know. It's, you know, all that just bubbled up. Spare me. Spare me with the, all right, the father used to beat up his mother. You know. Oh, right. Yeah, Mr. Hancock. Okay, I got it.

Okay. Ugh. Oh, I don't even know if I want to play the rest of this, but I'm going to. Plus the ABC little packages drive me crazy. Oh, no, not the nephew. Oh, no, not the nephew. He stayed up late to see his uncle will, you know. And.

If he says, if he says, you know, one more time, I may just throw my phone. You know, you know. And by the way, I don't know that I believe that the nine-year-old nephew stayed up late to see his uncle. You know? It stayed up late to see his uncle will, you know. And we're sitting in my kitchen. and he's on my lap and he's holding the Oscar and he's just like

why did you hit that man? Oh, shut up. You know, damn it. No, there's another one. Why are you trying to Oprah me? He's going to cry? But go see my movie Emancipation. That's a real deal.

And I know I was kicked out of the academy for, I don't know, 10 years or 20 years or life or whatever the hell it is. and, you know, good luck, my business. Wife is still doing her little red tablecloth show on Facebook, I think. Although I haven't heard a lot about that, so I wonder what's happening with that. Because I used to do a lot of promotions with that. You'd hear her interviewing all kinds of people on her.

It's not red, it's like Red Table Talk, right? Doesn't that what it's called? Yeah, Red Table Talk is just on Facebook. Jada Pinkett. So I guess it's still going. We'll see. Maybe she's, I don't know. The whole thing is unbelievable.

You know, Will. There's no way that story is true. I am sorry. I'm not calling you a liar, Will. You know what? I believe you have a nine-year-old nephew. I possibly believe he was upset with you or asked you a question about what happened at the Oscars when he was looking at you. Oscar? Were you

sitting in the kitchen and he just had a stoic look on his face holding the Oscar? Why did you hit that man? Uncle Will? Very difficult for me to believe that actually happened. I feel like your story

is based on a true story. That's where we're at with it. So go ahead and believe that is true, Will. Go ahead. With MX Platinum, $400 in annual credits for travel and dining means you not only satisfy your travel bug,

The other day, I put a picture up on, I was doing chewing during Pat Gray on Leashed, my chewing the fat segment every Wednesday on Pat Gray unleashed. And I had gone to Sam's Club the night before

and there was no eggs. I took a picture of the space. There was zero eggs. And, you know, I realized that there's plenty of stores in the area that probably still have eggs. I got it. But, you know, I'd go to Sam's Club. There's a lot of them.

I'm here. I might as well get some eggs, no eggs. So I'm driving this morning and I hear there's been 50 million birds, chickens that we've killed already this year because of bird flu. And they don't know when it's going to calm down. They have no idea. No idea. We just, well, we're hoping for the best.

Yeah, we're killing all these chickens. We're hoping for the best. We need those. How about we figure out how to stop it? How about we do something? I'd like to have my eggs. I'd like to have my chicken. I mean, it's just amazing to me.

And then I see a story about how Campbell's Soup is innovating. Are they really? Campbell's Soup is innovating. Yeah, well, of course. You saw the cans how they look so different on the shelf. So the company revealed that organic sales revenue outside of this merger that they did. I don't know. I mean, there's a top in the soup industry for the last 100 years who's messing with Campbell's Soup.

They had better than expected earnings. So consumers responded better to inflation-based price hikes than anticipated. consumers responded better to inflation-based price hikes than anticipated. So you got less calls of people being pissed about how much, because I don't have you been down a soup aisle in a while, but a can of Campbell soup ain't like it used to be, okay? It just isn't. I just isn't. It's just amazing.

Well, everything is a fortune. And you know that as well as I do. You go to the grocery store just like I do. So they had all kinds of the price increases and they're happy and they're making more money than ever. So cheap, long-lasting foods tend to do better in economic downturns. But Campbell's said, hey, we didn't find success just by waiting for inflation to hit. So since 2019, a little cocky. A little cocky.

Campbell's a little cocky there. since 2019 the company has been fully leaning into innovation using AI to comb through 300 billion data points every year in search of new product ideas. I don't, call me, email me, chewing the fat at the blaze.com. Campbell's, I've got some ideas for you, no problem. So Campbell's also has upended the way its employees work. We're redoing everything. we're shrinking the soup lab space because if you're Campbell's

who's messing with you I mean you're Campbell's we do what we want so they're shrinking the soup lab space to encourage more collaboration we're just going to move everybody closer together and then we're going to call you know what that's for better collaboration

oh okay it isn't just a smaller desk space. No, no, no, no. It's for a better collaboration. Okay, all right. So you're just not saving money on space for buildings and everything. Nope, nope, it's for better

collaboration. All right. All right, if you say so. So good luck to Campbell's. Because just keep raising the price and hope that, you know, so far consumers have responded better to inflation-based price hikes.

then anticipated. We anticipated that they'd be really pissed. But they weren't. They were just kind of pissed. You know why? Because everything else is going up. I got other things to be mad about. You know, like gasoline. And so we, yeah, I'm pissed about the soup price, but I'm not as pissed about the soup prices I have the gas prices. I'm not as pissed about the soup prices I am about getting a steak that's $8 billion now. I'm not pissed. You know what? I'm going to go ahead and just be. Oh, man, do I want to pay $0.99 for a can of tomato soup?

No. But I might as well, because I don't have any eggs. The eggs and the chickens are gone. I might as well get a can of soup. So you keep working. Thank you. Thank you. That was a different story, by the way.

That was from a different story. It was from the stupid waiters come up and bugging you at the restaurant. Ha ha ha ha ha ha Oh stupid. If's everything okay, sir? Ah, just let me eat. Let me alone. If I need you, I'll raise my hand.

I'll whistle. I'll snap my finger. Hey. I'll get some help. I'll let you know. Okay? But you got the idea. Okay, I've talked about a little competition

So shop.blazmedia.com. promo code, jeffy 20. Thank you. Be sure to follow me on Twitter at Jeffie JFR, Facebook and Instagram. Jeff Fisher Radio. I'm still verified, still blue-checked on

Twitter. I don't know when that's going to happen. I don't know what's going to happen with Twitter. I know we've had the second Twitter files released from Elon telling us things that we already really knew. You know, we knew that

some big players were being shadow banned. Dan Bongino, Dr. Bokcharas. which, I mean, he was arguing that COVID lockdowns would harm children. Oh, no kidding. They shadow banned and blocked him and Charlie Kirk from TPSA.

I mean, it was no surprise. We already knew that these, they were definitely not alone. They were just, you know, a couple of the biggest ones. But my favorite part of the whole Twitter files, too, especially concerning the shadow banning, because they denied it for the longest time. I mean, Jack himself

replied to our own Dave Rubin about shadow banning no. His answer was a no. When Dave Rubin said a simple yes or no answer will suffice Jack answered replied no

we do not shadow ban and everybody knew it was BS well we find out just like they just play these stupid words words and it really is just a lie is all it is but it's not a lie to them because they're playing their silly little word games of saying no it's it's not a shadow banning at all we i don't even know what shadow banning is i don't even know why you people would call it shadow banning well then what do you call it? Well, we don't. Well, okay, we do. We call it

visibility filtering or VF. Oh, okay, so it's not shadow batting. Nope, no such thing. Don't know what you're talking about. But visibility filtering, now that's a thing. Yeah, of course we do that. It's just amazing how they continue to parse words and it's really just a matter because they want to get over on. you and lie and they think that they you know they're caught in the deal so we'll see we'll see

what happens public enemy number one Elon Musk is still you know allowing people in San Francisco they want they it's okay for people to sleep in the streets but it's not okay for employees to sleep in the building I'll tell you that I don't want to see any of that that's ridiculous so we'll see what happens with Twitter at Jeffrey JFR I don't know what he's going to start charging this all that I started on that because I'm still verified and I don't know if I have to pay $8 soon to keep my blue check mark or not. Because he said coming soon, right? It was going to be different colors for different businesses and personal.

And so, I mean, right now I'm a blue check at Jeffrey JFR. I would like very much, and I shouldn't say this out loud, but I'll tell you what I'd like to do is be verified at Jeffie. And take that damn at Jeffie away from the at Jeffie in the upper north. West who's blocked me because I wanted to trade him and get at Jeffie and now he refuses to tweet I had a I may have asked people to tweet him and he got a little angry but that was after I was nice I want at Jeffie and he you know he had it and he's got like nobody oh he's no that's probably why I got mad of me here nobody I know you're somebody I know you're somebody I

get it, but you're not Jeffie. I am. Not on Twitter, though. And that's probably, that's his feeling. Not on Twitter, fat man. Not on Twitter. Okay, I know it's been a long week and, you know,

you're tired, I'm tired. We're all tired for ice cream. Is that the phrase? Anyway, this is a sad story that just popped up, so I'll tell you this and I'll leave. I know. I know, but it ends happily.

Okay, it ends happily. Britney Griner That's home now And she was forced To cut her dreads In Russian Gulag Those bastards Apparently

The temperatures were so cold That her hair was freezing And when she took showers That's it to get rid of the hair So those bastards, thank the Lord. She is back on American soil. She's not in prison anymore. And mark my words.

Mark my words when I tell you. I talked about it yesterday. I'm happy that she's home. And I'm sick of having to use that disclaimer already. I'm happy that she's home. Was it a bad deal? Absolutely it was. But she didn't deserve to be in a Russian gulag.

No question. that having been said in the next before Christmas today is the night today is the night so before Christmas you are going to be so sick

of seeing Brittany Greiner it's going to be amazing she's going to be on every morning show afternoon show evening show late night talk show every magazine cover she's going to be introduced at every NBA game,

every WNBA game. She will probably be introduced at an NFL game. I mean, it's going to be agonizing. And you're going to realize yourself, oh, that's Brittany Griner. Half of a, more than half of America is going to go, oh, that's Britney Griner.

Huh. She plays, she plays, what? World Basketball, Women's Basketball. Association. WNBA, the women's national basketball association. Oh! Oh, okay. And she's such a star here that she had to go to Russia to play to make more money. Oh, okay. And I get it. That's what they were doing.

She's not the only one that American basketball players would shoot to Europe to make more money. I get it. But anyway, thankfully she'd be able to get those dreads back. I mean, no, I won't say that joke. I just edited myself. I just did. That's how good I am now. Okay?

I'll leave you. You know what? I'll leave you with a joke. Tell you what. I'll leave you with a joke. A couple of jokes, maybe. Couple of end of the week jokes. All right.

The first one is I saw the, I saw, well, this was more of a joke and a story because I saw it making the rounds again where a good rule of thumb is. And this is actually a helpful hint from the show. Don't drink and wrap presents. All right. If you've got presents to wrap, don't drink.

But if you do, and you get a present with a remote in it, I'm going to need that back. It's so stupid. And the other one is, The other one that's making the rounds again, too, is the husband and wife are in the kitchen, and the husband comes up and says,

honey, have I ever told you how good you can cook? And the wife says, oh, no, baby. Then why do you continue cooking? Do you know you laughed? Stream and subscribe to more Blaze Media content at theblaze.com slash podcasts.
