And now, chewing the fat with Jeff Fisher. I think I saved my receipts, so I'll be able to return all the extra toilet paper that I bought, because we found out that the International Longshoremen's Association Strike is now over. And I bought all this toilet paper. I stacked up. I'm stacked up in the garage, and it's now over. And good. Good.

I left yesterday after the show and I was driving home I was so angry I heard that the strike was still on at that time and I talked about it we talked about they can't hold America hostage they just no we cannot allow that

so yesterday I hear that other ports that have their union deals that were still going to remain open that weren't part of the ILA. We're still going to honor the ILA strike by not offloading merchandise that was meant for the ILA ports. And I thought, okay, fire everybody. Everybody needs to go. Have a nice day. We'll just bring in, we'll bring in every Haitian around America and let them work the docs. We'll feed them with dogs. All right. So whatever. You know, you get my point.

And I don't, because I don't care. I don't, you cannot hold America hostage. Then I hear where Governor Ron DeSantis from Florida comes out and says, yeah, we're going to send to the National Guard. We're going to unload the docks ourselves, the ports ourselves, and we're going to, you know, we're going to be there at the gates so there's no trouble. And we're going to waive fees. And we're going to waive a weight and load restrictions.

We're going to deliver it all because he used the storm for his excuse, which, okay, he's right. That's 100% true. We have issues throughout the Southeast that needs to be addressed, and we need merchandise for those victims of the natural disaster, Halene. However, the entire country cannot be held hostage from this strike. And that's when I think the ILA said. you know, we probably can go back to work. And they did.

So they said, you know what? Yeah, we weren't too happy. We told you no on the 50% increase. But you know what? We'll agree to a 62% increase over the life of our six-year contract, which, you know, not 77. So we're, I mean, we're being magnanimous here. And so now in the six-year term, if this.

contract holds, the $39 an hour will then reach $63 an hour working at the port. Pretty good. Pretty good. Now, it doesn't mention anything about the automated machinery, which was a big deal for them. And I get it. I was really torn because I understand, you know, how frustrating it is because they're losing jobs. I also got to thinking that one of the reasons that they don't want the robots and the AI and the technology

there at the ports is because there's a lot of merchandise coming in and out of that port that well you might not want to talk about you don't want people to know about and so I would just say that the ILA needs to hire some good computer people

and make it work because it's possible that that merchandise could still be brought in and out of the ports without people knowing even with AI but what do I know? I'm just thinking out loud is all I'm doing. So they're back at least until January 15th,

when they have to ratify the deal or go back on strike again. I will say that they were probably going to ratify the deal because they realized that they're not going to take America hostage. They just won't. We won't buy it. Unions were formed, so because people were paid poorly, they had horrible working conditions, and that needed to be fixed.

That isn't a problem anymore. Okay, it just isn't. I don't even know if unions are available. Available. I don't even know if unions are needed anymore. But, you know, if you're, you know, I know, I know, union strong, I get it. But my real point of this whole thing is that as long as I have my receipt,

I can get my money back for the toilet paper, right? Welcome. Welcome. Welcome to chewing the fat. So you know him, you love him, Garth Brooks. He's been accused of sexual assault and battery in a lawsuit from a Jane Doe, who says that she worked as a hairstylist and makeup artist for the award-winning singer.

The complaint filed in a state court in California states the alleged incidents occurred in 2019. She claimed, she was once raped by Brooks during a work trip. In a statement to CNN, which makes it even more believable, for the last two months, I have been hassled to no end with threats, lies, and tragic tales of what my future would be if I did not write a check for many millions. And so Garth is like, oh, this is hush money, and I don't like it.

Oh, okay. So Garth is denying it 100%. And when you read, I find it interesting that things happened prior to the accusation of rape. Why would you still be there? I mean, this is some of the questions I had during the Harvey Weinstein stuff too. If you're, you know, like when they talked about Harvey being behind the bush and, you know, taking care of business himself, diddling with himself. you know, when you ask any female in your life,

hey, if you, if this guy had you in a hallway and he was behind a bush and he just wanted to start dittling with himself and said, just stand there, I just want you to watch me do this. And would you say yes or no? Now, if the answer was yes, then that's on you. That's on you. But most women would say we either walk away or kick him in the dittling part As man parsons move away?

Anyway, that's not Brooks. That's why I see. I'm going back to Harvey's days. All right. So, in addition to the sexual assault and battery, the suit accuses that Brooks repeatedly exposed his genitals and buttocks, talking about sex and sharing sexual fantasies

with Roe, regularly changing his clothing in front of Roe, and sending sexually explicit text messages. So I'm sure... No, it's not for her. No, no, no, no. But I'm sure that She has the text messages, right? I'm sure she has copies of those text messages that we can see

because it doesn't say she does. So, I mean, I'm sure she was just so horrified by them. She deleted them. However, my point is, okay, so this is going on. And she doesn't say, I quit. I'm not, why are you doing this? What's going on? No, she continues to work there.

And that's when she claims that in 2019, Brooks was home for work, walked out of the shower naked, grabbed her hands, forced them onto his genitals, while speaking to her was sexually explicit and vulgar language. Okay, so she's still there now. Still there. Hasn't decided I've got to leave. This is too horrific for me.

I got to get out of here. He's coming out of the shower naked. He's forcing my hand down his genitals. He's sending me pictures, vulgar language. I got to get out of here. Nope, that's not a lot. I haven't drawn the line yet, okay? So now, then she alleges that Brooks raped her in a hotel room

during a work trip to Los Angeles, where Brooks was taping a Grammy tribute performance. According to the suit, they traveled to Los Angeles on Brooks's private jet. Usually, and I love the way they read on his private jet. Yeah, Garth isn't flying southwest, okay? He's not doing the California. call. Usually there were others on Brooks' private jet,

but this time, this time Ms. Roe and Brooks were the only two passengers. Once in Los Angeles at the hotel, Miss Roe could not believe that Brooks had booked a hotel suite with one bedroom, and she didn't have a separate room.

So, she didn't say, hey, give me another room. She didn't say, oh, there's not any available. I'll go to another hotel. No, she decided, well, okay, I'm just, all right, I'll stay in Garth's room. All right, fine. So once they arrived at the suite, then it's alleged that Garth appeared in the doorway of the bedroom completely naked.

And she felt trapped in the room all alone with Brooks. After the alleged rape, Roe claims that Brooks continued to tell her his sexual fantasies with more frequency and physically groped her, and the complaint states that Brooks repeated remarks about having a threesome with his wife. Huh. So now Rose attorney sent Brooks a confidential demand letter, alleging sexual misconduct after he declined Rose's request for a salaried employment and medical benefits.

After all that, she was so pissed and so horrified. Couldn't even barely get through life. I need to be a salaried employee. and have medical benefits. Okay. Okay. Stop it. I'm sorry. No. I know we're supposed to believe every woman.

I get it. But no. I don't. Sorry. And neither does Garth. Now, was there an affair? You know, possibly. You know, was there a fair that's now gone bad?

You know, Garth, you know, he's... Well, we all know that he's a serial killer, right? You've seen those stories. Garth Brooks is a serial killer. We'll get to that on Saturday morning live. Which we started last week. We're going to finish it up this week, especially with this news breaking. But we know Garth Brooks is a serial killer, right?

But that having been said, could it have been an affair? He's not out and about much. So he's got the hairdresser there. You do what you can. You can quote me on that. You do what you can. And so the wife is gone. What's her face?

Tricia Yearwood is, you know, in the other house or she's off on the West Wing and Garth is, you know, busy doing whatever Garth is busy himself doing. And, you know, they take care of a little business. That's possible. And now she's pissed and wants a salaried position for medical benefits. And he says, no. It's just you and me doing a little business here. And no, that's not happening.

and boy, if I could tell Tricia that you and I were having an affair, then maybe we could all have a threesome together. Okay, that I could see. That I can see. But now all this other stuff is because he wouldn't give her a salary to employment and medical benefits. She makes up all this other BS so that she can, you know, throw him under the bus. That'll teach you.

That will teach you. I mean, I'm sorry, I just don't believe it. I just don't believe it. I don't. You know, Garth isn't paying me. And I thought, no, I won't go into that. Never mind. We'll just say I don't believe the story, okay?

I'm sorry, Jane Doe. I don't believe you. Boarding for flight 246 to Toronto is delayed 50 minutes. What? Sounds like Ojo time. Play Ojo, great idea. Feel the fun with all the latest slots in live casino games and with no wagering requirements.

Concerned by your gambling or that if someone close, you call 1-86653310 or visit Comex Ontario.C.A. Okay, let's take a look at Fat Bear Week. We got that going on. We have today's voting in the Fat Bear Week bracket. 909 Jr. is going up against 128. Yeah, 128. It's going to crush.

Sorry about 909, Jr., but you're going down. I know you beat out mom or dad or whatever it was 909, but you're going down. 128 Grazer has been a champion before he's going to take you down. Sorry, that's the way it goes. And then we have 747 versus 903 Gully. 903 Gully? You're looking good, but you're not going to defeat 747. Sorry, 747 is a fighter and is not.

not a rookie. Okay? So you're going, you're going down. You're going down. And then tomorrow, 856, goes up against 32. 32 would definitely win. And 164 goes up against 151. That'll be a battle, but I think 151 will win it out. And then we have the semifinals on Monday. So on Sunday you can take a break. But get to the brackets now. And 909 Jr. up against 128, 128 will crush. and 747 against 903, 747 will win. And then this weekend, we have 856 against 32. 32 will win. And 164 up against 151.

Again, going to be a battle, but I think 151 is going to battle it out. So just remember that Monday's semifinals will be, and then Tuesday will be the finals. So we have the eighth, if you're listening live, today is 10.4. 10-4, good buddy. Anyway, so the semifinals on Monday will be 128 against 747. Well, that's going to be a tough one. And then we're going to have, this is my predictions, 32 up against 151.

Those are my predictions. So write them down, mark it down. That's a fact. when we come back on Monday so the finals I will talk about the finals on Monday because right now I'm just giving you the predictions

of the bracket up through up through Monday so you know I'm right and you can go to go to the website and vote I'll put the link in the show in the show notes

but you just go to it's actually explore.org slash fat dash bear dash week so if you go to Catmai National Parks website, they link it up and it drives you to the bracket of Fat Bear Week. But, I mean, if you're, if you can gamble on it, I'm your man. Follow my predictions and make money.

You're welcome. As you know, no one can take personal responsibility anymore. And that's just not a possible thing. It just isn't. So a former Jacksonville Jaguar employee who stole more than 22 million from the team. I remember the whole deal about him, you know, siphoning money up. And the owner of the Jaguar's Khan, he's got more money. He doesn't even need it.

He's got so much. He's got so much money. He doesn't know what he does. 22 million, he spits it $22 million. They just paid their quarterback the most money of any quarterback and look how crappy he is. So he doesn't care about,

anyway, he did actually care about the 22 million. And now, that former. employee who stole the $22 million from the team, has sued Fanduel, the sports betting company in court, saying that the sports book exploited his gambling addiction and intentionally ignored its responsible gaming and anti-money laundering protocols. Okay. So it's their fault that you stole money.

To gamble with. Okay. All right. In today's world, I mean, that could actually win. He's asking for $250 million. Now, he was diagnosed with a gambling disorder in March of 2023 after he was fired by the Jaguars. And according to court filings, he's been receiving therapy and participating in gamblers anonymous and alcoholics anonymous.

I'm sure that alcohol didn't have anything to do with it. I don't even know why he's doing that. In July, he asked, the Jaguars sued him for $66.6 million. What was this guy making? I mean, he stole $22 million. And now they're asking him for $66 million. What was this guy doing? I need to work for the Jacksonville Jaguars.

What needs to happen? So they, let's see, they also reported that the Jaguars asked Fandul to repay the losses. In other words, they don't say on this story whether Fanduel said, how about no? So he's serving now a six and a half year sentence at Williamsburg Federal Prison in South Carolina. And he's got nothing better to do, but you know what we should do is, let's just go ahead and sue Fanduel. for $250 million. And then I can give Jacksonville or $66 million

and the rest is all mine, you know, outside of the attorney fees. So they got that going for you. I'm going to be an interesting case to follow because he actually might win this case. Because unless Fandul, if Fandul bent the knee to the Jaguars and gave the money back,

and I don't know that to be, I don't know, it doesn't say whether that happened or not and I don't know whether it did or not. But if they bent the knee there, then that showed that they had an idea that something was off with all of these bets. Because if otherwise, they would have said, no, we're not giving you the money back, which I hope they did. Because that's what we do. We provide a service. And he was using our service.

And we were happy that he was using our service because he was spending a lot of money. Just incredible. Amazing times. We live in amazing times. All right. I got to go to the break room. I need something cold to drink desperately. All right, so Joker 2 this weekend, opening weekend for Joker 2.

Looking forward to that. I'm going to be getting to it sometime this weekend. I mean, I've got football and I've got other shows to watch. So, you know, at some point, Joker 2 will be in my life because it's opening weekend. And I'm not going to wait. I was talking to my son last night. And I'm like, well, it was a busy weekend. got this, we got this, I got to squeeze in Joker 2, and he's like, well, we can all just go Monday.

And I'm like, Monday afternoon, it's over. I mean, it's over. They might as well just pull it from the theaters on Monday. So I'll have a joke or two review on Monday, along with Talking Walking Dead as well. I mean, I give and I give and I give. Okay, that's what I do. I see where Amazon has ordered a Reacher spin-off. starring Maria Sten as Negley.

You know, that's his, that's Reacher's, uh, former fellow investigator and military. She's really cool. Hopefully they'll, they'll do that, that series right. Uh, it'll be awesome. And then, uh,

uh, we have a live action. I can't believe this is actually happening. A live action Rugrats film in the works for Paramount. That is hilarious. I was forced to watch the stupid Rugrats. Rugrats for 100 years. A live action Rugrats film. Hopefully they could actually do that right.

And, oh, and we're going to get an Olivia Rodriguez concert on Netflix, too. So, yay. Man, who's been clamoring for that? I know. Me too. So we also got news about the movie Rust is finally going to be released. I know. It's final three years.

years after our man, Alec Baldwin, shot and killed Helena Hutchins by mistake on the set. And so there's going to be, it's going to open at the camera image, no, the camera image international film festival in Poland. I mean, it doesn't get any bigger than that. The camera image, camera image international film festival in Poland in November. So the premiere is going to honor Helena Hutchins, who was 42 years old when she died.

After the screening, the film director, Joel Sousa, cinematographer Bianca Klein, and Stephen Lighthill, Helena's mentor at the American Film Institute, will participate in a panel to discuss events surrounding the film, offering insight into. continuing production after Helena's death. They're also going to discuss the unique visual style that Helena developed onset and explain how Bianca, who took over her work, managed to remarkably replicate it. So it really wasn't that difficult. She got shot and killed, and Bianca stepped in and did the same thing.

Oh, I'm sorry, I'm supposed to say it. No, I mean, she was remarkable. It was remarkable that she was able to replicate Helena's style. So the question is, is our man, Alec, going to show up to the premiere at the camera image international film festival in Poland? No, that is not happening. Alec said, look at the time. Man, do I, I would like to be there. You, normally you couldn't drag me away from this.

but yeah, I'm not going to be there. I mean, it's his movie. He's the guy. He's the guy that stars in it. He's the guy. And I don't blame him, really. It would be a, it's going to be a side show anyway, but it would be more of a side show if he showed up for sure.

And I don't blame him. I don't blame him for not showing up. I mean, I know it's over. And what's her face? Oh, what's her face? The armorer tried. to use the same thing that Baldwin was using. No, you can't use it.

I didn't say his full name. I didn't say his first name. I snuck it in there. If there's no gunshot, it's still a secret. A sneaker, just a bald one. But if I say Alec, you hear that. And of course, if I say, you know, Alec Baldwin, you hear that. That's a must.

We're still talking about Rust. That still has to happen. But he's the armor. what's her face she tried to do the same thing that got Alec off and the judge was like no no thank you

sorry that does not going to work take care of you in fact thank you for stopping by we're not even going to let you out of jail let your attorneys file that because we're not giving it to you okay all right have a nice day so we have that to look forward to coming up in November the opening of

Rust starring Alec Baldwin. Then yesterday we got news. We were talking about Barbara Streisand. And I forget why we were. Oh, we were singing her on Packer on Leashed. Oh, he's got the machine shut off. People.

People who need people. No, I don't want to hear it. No, don't reach for the computer to play it. So, and she, we were just singing a song and we were joking about how what a wonderful voice she has and Pat doesn't like her. Look, I'm not a huge fan of Babs either, but it's fun. It's fun to say how much I like her.

And I was forced to listen to the one album for quite some time from her. And, you know, she has, she got a beautiful voice. No, really. So anyway, this story breaks out today about Barbara. And I don't know. I mean, is it real? Probably not. I would say, off the cuff, I would say, no.

This is a story from, I'm getting to it. Why are you asking me in my ear? Why are you asking me in my ear? What's the story? Of course I know I'm getting to the story. I don't understand that. I seriously, you're sitting in the other room. You know I'm doing the story.

Why are you asking my ear? Oh, really, what's the story? The story from Radar Online. Barbara Streisand's repulsive acid reflux diet killing her sex life. First of all, she's 82. I don't know how much sex life she has because hubby James Brolin is 84.

So I don't know how much bidness Babs and James are doing. But maybe they are. Hey, I'm not judging. You know, there's all kinds of good drugs and I'm happy that works for them. Anyway, apparently, she has been belching and farting so much he can't stand it.

And he has to actually sleep in another room. That's why they claim that it's affecting their sex life. Oh, okay. So according to this, Strysand loves gigantic spreads of pastramian rye, the sourcrow. Pickles, could I tell you how much I hate sauerkraut?

I just like to pause for a minute. Aside from what Barbara's eating. When I was a little kid, I can remember walking into the house we lived in and you'd walk in the side door of the house and there was a stairway going down in the basement and the stairway going up into the kitchen a short stairway down, I don't know,

four or five stairs, three or four stairs, going up into the kitchen. And my family used to have this, it wasn't a crock pot. It was, it was a ceramic pot that they used to make sauerkraut in and it would just all over the house,

You'd smell it brewing in that crock pie. Oh, it's just nasty. I hate sourcrow. Anyway, so Bob Babs is eating the sourcrow. Pickles, potato salad, and coleslaw, along with banana cream pie. I'm a fan. I'm a fan of the banana cream pie, by the way.

The rye, yeah, I'm okay with the rye bread, with the pastrami and the sourcrow. Oh, nasty. and apparently it gives her, and she knows it gives her heart burning gas. So if she knows that, I mean, what is she doing? Well, she doesn't care. She doesn't care that her diet gives her unpleasant consequences,

and she refuses to give up her favorite foods. So those food choices leave her belching and fizzing, and it's allegedly driving Brolin 84 from their bed. So, I mean, okay, it goes on to talk about how she, She, how is she, she's messy when she eats and spills, and she eats hot dogs and has ice cream. And she said she could never just have one. So there's that.

There's that. You know what? I want to believe it's true. With MX Platinum, $400 in annual credits for traveling. and dining means you not only satisfy your travel bug, but your taste buds too. That's the powerful backing of Amex. Conditions apply.

person. Remember he knocked Elon off, knocked Bezos down, he was sitting on top of the world, the richest guy in the world, no more. We may have to start a go-fund me. He's down to fifth place. He lost 50, When you're thinking you're having a bad day,

he lost 54 billion. Ah, holy cow. So his net worth now is only $177 billion. I don't know how he'll get by. But that's it. So, you know,

sad day for Bernard Arnold. Then I see they released the Forbes 100 richest Americans. And let's see. Guess who's on the top of that list? The 100 richest Americans. Is it Elon Musk? Yes, it is.

Good guess. Congratulations. Yes. Number two is Jeff. And he doesn't like to be a number two, but he is. Jeff Bezos is number two. Wow, he is way behind, man. Bezos is $197 billion.

Again, I don't know how he's going to get by. But Elon is up to $244 billion. He was more than that at one point. point. Holy cow, 244 billion. Good for him. Zuck is at 181. Not a nightmare. How does he get 181 billion? Larry Ellison, number four, Buffett number five. Wait a minute. Yeah, no, it was his partner that died. Warren's still alive. Never mind. Larry Page, 136 billion. That's all Google people. Sergei Ben Balmer. Gates is down to ninth, $107 billion. Boy, the divorce took a toll on Bill, man.

That took a toll. And he hasn't fought back since the divorce. Jeff Bezos has. I will say that. That's one thing. The Bezos divorce, he took a hit, but he's fought back strong and got back up. Not Bill Gates. Divorce hurt him, heard him hard.

And Michael Bloomberg finally broke a billion. He's over a hundred billion already. Wow. He was never over a hundred billion. That guy. There's another winning guy. And then it goes on with the Waltons. all the rest of them. Congratulations for being the richest people on the planet.

Actually, they're the richest people in America. Because in the world, Bernard O'Nah is a fifth. And, well, it's a sad day for Bernard. When I got a great deal on a great gift at winners, I started wondering, could I get fabulous gifts for everyone on my list? Like this designer fragrance for my daughter. It's just $39.99. How could I resist? This luxurious will throw for my...

sister. This gold watch for my partner? A wooden puzzle for my niece? Leather gloves for my boss? Ooh, European chocolate for the crossing guard? At these prices, could I find something for everyone at Winners? Stop wondering. Start gifting. Winners find fabulous for less. All right. Before we get to What's the Lie, I just want to be clear. I just got a text on my phone from Sharon letting me know that the Solar Review at 305 Cranston Place is finished. So I have no idea where that is. I have no idea who Sharon is, but she texts me letting me know that the solar review is

finished. So thank you, Sharon, for letting me know that. All right, so it's Friday. It's time for What's the Lie? Many people are calling it America's favorite game show. The fact everyone is What's the Lie? Where contestants try to decipher the lie from

four, count him one, two, three, four headlines. One of them is not true. Thus, that's why we call it What's the Lie. Our contestant today, Joe Alana, if he wins, not only will he get to come back for another round, he will win a Talking Sense, Jeffrey Blue Freshie. And for more information, you can go to the Talking Sense Facebook group

Joe Alana, welcome to What's the Lie. how are you my friend? I'm doing well. How are you doing, Joe? I am fantastic. Thank you. So, you know, for years, I worked at a record store

and I was part of my life and I loved it. And I noticed that part of your message to me, you called yourself a record store day. And where'd that come from? What are we doing? Are you a record store magnet? Do you own record stores? What's happening? Are you unfamiliar with record store day? I think I am.

It's like a yearly... I can tell you right now I'm a little pissed that you're talking down to me on the game show, but go ahead. Pretty much certain record stores throughout the country will host it, and a bunch of record labels will press

limited releases. Oh, nice. Represses or original... That had to have started long after my hundred years ago working at a record store. That had to have happened recently in the recent past like 20 or 30 years, right? Yeah. Yeah.

Thank you. Thank you. So you can stop talking down to me, my friend. Okay. Right now. All right. Wait, wait, hold on. One sec.

Okay. You're saying my last name wrong. Oh, no. I said Alana, right? It's a line. Yeah. I repeated. It's a, it's a, it's a zanya with a Z.

It rhymes with lasagna. Lasagna, alanya. Yes, yes, yes. Is that right? I said it. What was, what was, Alanya? You were saying, you were saying Alana, uh. Alana, but it's Alanya.

Yes, Alanya. You are really pissing me off. I'll tell you that. This game show is going right off the rails. So it's Alanya. Not. Yes. I did put a while here.

I just, if I said A, if I said Alana, then I apologize. I don't want to. I can't tell. I pronounce people's last names. I should have just left it with Joe.

All right. So you're ready to play what's the line? My gosh. Yes. Oh my gosh. Man, do I hope you win? I'll tell you that. I want you to win bad.

Yeah, I know. All right. Headline number one. Industry Group says Apple Cider Donut is the hardest candle sent to create. Headline number two, man buys Taylor Swift inspired guitar at auction only to destroy it. Headline number three, Montana Man gets six months in prison for cloning giant sheep and breeding it. Headline number four. She defended El Chapo, now his lawyer is using her narco fame to launch a music career. Those are your four headlines.

This is pretty tough. I think I'm going to go with the cloning one. The cloning one. The Montana man who got six months in prison for cloning giant sheep and breeding it. Oh, no. Gosh, darn it. Oh, Joe, I am so bummed that you lost. Anyway, thanks for listening and playing What's the Live.

What's the Lies, a subsidiary of Chewing the Fed Enterprises. All information is probably accurate at the time of recording. CTF, WTL, MMXXIV. So you want to take another shot? Of course. All right, go ahead. Go ahead. My second guess was the donut one.

Guess what? You would have been correct. Yeah, I know. But he doesn't get applause. That was a second guest. He guessed wrong. He didn't get it right. What are giant sheep?

That just, it sounds so, what are we talking about? It sounded like a sci-fi, like fake, you know. He cloned the giant sheep. What do you mean? What are we talking about? What's the giant sheep? That's how it's a thing. It is a thing.

I've seen apple cider donut candles. He used tissue and testicles from large sheep that he hunted in Central Asia and the U.S. to create a hybrid sheep for captive trophy hunting. So he was creating these giant sheep so he could go out and kill him. And damn it, we can't have that. We cannot have that here in America. That just doesn't stand. That's kind of sad, actually.

Clamping down. It's kind of sad, actually. Anyway, Joe, I appreciate it very much. Thank you. Man, it was fun. Stream and subscribe to more Blaze Media content at theblaze.com slash podcasts.
