And hubby did not In a parking lot of a Krispy Cream Donut shop I guess they were driving the woman To the hospital Who was in active labor And this once in a century storm The Polar Vortex

Stoped them and they had to pull into a Krispy Kreme donut parking lot, and that's where the baby was born. So congratulations. Now you'd think that they named the baby Krispy Kreme. Nope. Nope. They named the baby Dallas.

And so I don't know if they named it Dallas Krispy Kreme, whatever the last name is. They didn't tell the family's name in the story. So it's just the baby Dallas was born in the parking lot of Krispy Kreme. and the manager of the Alabama Krispy Cream originally suggested, hey, man, we're going to give you free donuts for a year as well as host Dallas's first birthday party. So he tried to help him out a little bit.

And Krispy Cream was like, that's not enough. That's not enough at all. So the family's celebration for Dallas birthday party every year until he's all grown up, I guess until he's in a, you know, 18 or whatever. And additionally, you know, what's cool is Dallas birth certificate will be, according to, you know, Krispy Kreme, the first time that the bakery chain will be listed as a place of birth. So he's birthed at the Krispy Kreme in Alabama, and he gets to have a birthday party every year at Krispy Kreme

until he's all grown up with uh i know i know it'll be awesome about year 15 he's going to be like ah that's enough uh just give me like a dozen donuts and wish me happy birthday and i'm on my way but congratulations uh birthday january 22nd uh so um dallas crispy cream and the last name insert last name um the birth certificate born at the Alabama Krispy cream. Enjoy. Enjoy.

And I'm really disappointed if they didn't name the kid at least, you know, Dallas Krispy last name. Dallas glazed last name. Something to go with Krispy Kreme.

Something. I don't know. Dallas Donut Hole. Smith. Dallas, they don't sell Bear Claws at Kris cream. I don't think. The last time I was out of Kris cream,

they have Kris Cream donuts. They have different. flavor crispy cream donuts they try to you know they do all their little fancy stuff for the uh you know the christmas celebration and the election day celebration where you get i voted bring an i vote a sticker you get a free donut that kind of thing i don't think they have crispy cream i could be wrong i could be wrong so dallas bear claw whatever the last name is but no no all we know as the kid's name is Dallas and we'll receive a birthday party

every year at the Alabama Krispy Cream. If they move, do they still, does it get to be transferred to another Krispy Cream? I'd write that in the contract. Make sure that you put that down in writing because who knows who's going to be in charge of that dump next time you roll in. Anyway, happy birthday to Dallas

and congratulations for being born in the polar vortex of the Krispy Cream Donuts Shop. in Alabama. Welcome. Welcome to chewing the fat. It's possible that the Los Angeles fires are going to be out now. I mean, they've got more than an inch of rain fell in Los Angeles over the weekend, and apparently it's still raining.

The Palisades fire is 94% contained, which is awesome. The Eaton fire is 98% contained, almost gone. The Hughes fire is 99%. is 95% contained. But then we still have the, well, the border two and the laguna fires are, uh,

have just, they're small 15 acres and, uh, one has been burning for three, like three days. And it's only burned 15 acres. And, uh,

the border two fire has burned 6,000, over almost 7,000 acres. That's been burning for four days. That's about 43% contained. And yes, for you wondering, uh, the Horton fire in Arizona.

is still burning with 8,000. I know. Okay. I feel like this is just mean to the people who are going in their places burn. But that's what they're hearing.

The Horton fire in Arizona is still 8,346 acres have been burned. That's only been burning for 43 days now. And it is 98% contained. I feel like that fire is never going to be contained.

It has been burning for that long. I mean, you think that it would be out by now. You just think that it would be out by now. And I did see a story that mentioned a forensic arborist. And that's a good gig, man. If you could become a, not just an arborist, but a forensic arborist. I mean, you want to talk about, you talk about an expert.

Yeah, I can tell you what's wrong with your tree, but it ain't going to be free. Okay. I could do a forensic analysis of, you know, the sap from your tree, but I'm not doing it for free. So this particular forensic arborist has determined that nearly all wildfires in California since the Paradise fires have been caused by direct energy weapons. I don't look at me. He said it, the forensic arborist. this Robert Brame 38 years of experience

as an arborist who now doesn't go by just an arborist he's a forensic arborist spent the last 48 years studying the Plant Kingdom so he's been an arborist for 38 but the last 48 he's been studying that was working up to

being able to call himself an arborist and he has conducted extensive field work making 106 trips to add the aftermath of 38 different wildfires mostly in California and according to his analysis, he's determined that only three of these fires were due to natural causes.

One example he provides is the Coffee Park Fire in Santa Rosa, California, in 2017. Several highly flammable trees were left entirely intact despite homes burning to the ground around it. Like what we're seeing in the L.A. fires right now. In all of his 120 trips to fire ravaged areas, he has found strange consistent anomalies such as melted glass and aluminum where there shouldn't be. In other scenarios, fence posts made of wood only ignited near the screws or metal,

leading him to believe it's being heated up with some kind of microwave technology. Another example he shows are trees that are literally cooking from the inside out. and he would know he's a forensic arborist, burning while not one single leaf burned on the same trees. Wow, think of that. So they're cooking from the inside out, burning while not one single leaf burned on the same trees. He believes, our forensic arborist blame,

believes some of these fires like the ones in Hawaii have been started or exasperated by directed energy weapons. So just saying, I'm just saying, isn't it interesting? Isn't it interesting? And when you've got forensic arborists running around, man, no, we don't want to, holy cow, no, we're not going to do that to the arborist. Wow. Now, he may carry one.

He may carry one. He may walk around. Hey, I'm a forensic arborist. What are you talking to me? I'm telling you right now, those screws right there? Yeah, they heat it up. It's like a microwave. Okay.

How do I know? I'm a forensic arborist. It's a new TV show, actually. I mean, we could bring back the TV show. I think forensic arborist is a good show. And I think we should bring back, we could bring back my canon theme. Yes.

Yes. Arborist. Yes. This has to happen. Arborist. starring William Conrad as the arborist The Forensic Arborist Diane Farsi

She's still around Oh, John Van Art Tonight's episode Dark Ash Forensic Not only is he an arborist He's a forensic arborist Tonight's episode

Dark Ash I've already written the show for him I mean there are some new shows out there. I mean, I didn't plan on talking about what I'm viewing yet, but we can, I mean, I've watched Netflix dropped Night Agent, season two. I love season one. I'm not all the way through it yet, so I'll let you know.

On call, on prime, really good. Episodes are fast. They're like, I don't know, 30 minutes, 32 minutes long episodes that's based on these police officers in Long Beach, California. really good. Eric LaSalle was good to see him back working. It was just awesome. It was a fun ride.

And a couple of twist and turns in this, I think there's six or eight episodes of On Call of this first season on Prime. Really good. And I will say Prime puts this limits with me again with these commercials, man. I'm telling you, man. It's a line I won't cross, but I was close, man. I was close as I sat through a couple of shows this weekend,

specifically the entire season of On Call. And, you know, then the commercials. And it's just, it's everything I have. Not to pay the extra $2.99 so that I don't have to sit through the commercials. But I'm not doing it. Damn it, you will not get me. Then another show that I started watching. And more about On Call, okay?

one of the things that I really liked about it was the production they the camera shots of on call are you know like regular camera shots but they use a lot of a body cam shots body cam footage shots from the police they use a lot of shots from cameras a city cameras street cameras added into the production it's really good and they do it really good I like it a lot and anyway and they threw a couple of curved into the into the season where you think oh shoot and I didn't really see that one coming so uh I really enjoyed it that's on prime and then uh there's a show on max that I started watching um called the pit and it's about a hospital in Pittsburgh and uh it's it's really good it's got what's his face in it you know what's his face no a while from uh you know he's got I mean we'd all remember him when he first got to start in ER and he's been you know in all kinds of stuff but he really does a great job here

in the Pittsburgh Trauma Medical Center Hospital and it was just a fun ride and I like the way they set this up I watched I think the first couple of episodes were available when I watched it I sat down with my wife and we watched it and it was really good

that was all that was available at the time and we just haven't got back to it yet but they it's a day it's just a day so like episode one is 8 a.m. And then episode two is 9 a.m. So I like the way they went about it. And it's pretty real.

It seems pretty realistic so far what I've seen going out at the hospital. Anyway, that's just a couple of episodes, a couple of shows that I'm watching, made me think of, you know, the arborist. So if you want to type it up and use it, go ahead. I just want credit. It's all. Don't let him know. You know, the arborist, he is a forensic arborist.

Not just the show is the show is arborist. But he, why does it have to be a he, Jeff? Because it's just the way it is. The arborist, he can run into other arborists that are female in the show. But the show is based around him. And he is an arborist, a forensic arborist. Who carries a weapon for some reason? Because, well, you have to have a weapon if you're out in the woods

because you never know what you're going to run into. Out in the woods. And you come across all kinds of animals and snakes. And you've got to be prepared as a forensic arborist to deal with anything. With Amex Platinum, $400 in annual credits for travel and dining means you not only satisfy your travel bug, but your taste buds too. That's the powerful backing of Amex. Any time in life that you make a big change, it's hard. This is especially true when you're

planning to buy or sell a home. And it's really complicated. It takes a lot of time and a lot of jumping through hoops. And because of that, the stakes are just about as high as they can ever be. And because the financial decisions that you're going to have to make are pretty big. And you're going to need some help. I mean, obviously, and that's where you need a real estate agent to help you with all of it. But what you don't want is just some ordinary agent who does this on the side. Some bum says he can sell your house, but he's out painting the bus stop benches instead. That guy, you know him. You want the best. Real estate agents, I trust, pairs you with the top selling real estate agents in your area. Not of those bums out there. Real estate agents, I trust.

It's someone who knows the best practices, someone who understands the crazy housing market, someone who's a team leader and a closer. Someone you can trust. So if you're thinking about buying or selling a home or both, get in touch with them. You'll see exactly what I mean. Real estate agents I trust.

I mean, really the name pretty much says it all. Real estate agents I trust. So you just have to go to the website and they'll hook you up. Real estate agents I trust. Real estate agents I trust.com. You know, speaking of hooking up, a little bit different kind of hooking up. But I was reading, of course, now that the W.E.F. in Davos is over. And all the hoity-toits have hopped on their private jets and they're out of there.

We're finding out that there plenty of the W.EF people there were there to party and wanted escorts. for the evening. And there were three big companies doing business in Davos, uh, for business. Uh, yes. Oh yeah.

So you're a billionaire from France, uh, we, we. Uh, I mean, it's just, it's unbelievable. So according to the,

the Andreas Berger, uh, he is the spokesman for tit for tat. Uh, T-I-T-T-T-T-T-T-T-T-T-T-T. he or she I'm not sure who that is Andreas Berger sorry I don't mean to judge

he said that we've seen around 300 women and trans women have been booked in Davos and the surrounding area since the start of WV now it started the last weekend or weekend before this last weekend because we're coming off of this weekend you're listening live today is the 27th of January

2025 Monday so not yesterday started the weekend before now comparatively speaking i guess in 2024 they only had about 170 women working so i mean almost doubled wow uh in terms of the number of bookings for and this is my i think my favorite line i had not heard it before and this comes from andreas burger spokesperson and it says spokesman so it is a man it says spokesman in the story Okay, I can get away with it. Andreas Berger, the man, spokesman for Tid for tat,

says the number of bookings for commercial intimacy was another record year for us. I like that line a lot. Commercial intimacy. There were significantly more sex parties than previous years based on the amount of escorts booked, just around 90 customers. compared to 140 last year.

So about 300 this year. 90 this year wanted sex parties. Okay. And so they wanted all kinds. He said, we suspect that this is the consequence of recent news about sex parties in Hollywood. Oh, okay.

So, I mean, they, everybody wants to have parties. Have sex parties. And they had them sign NDAs for the first time. So it seems that, wealthy and powerful clients are going to increase lengths to keep their sexual activities secret. And really, to me, it's nobody's business. I'm happy we're hearing from Andreas and these other owners of these companies that give you

commercial intimacy. But, you know, I get it. Sign the NDA. I don't know if they matter anymore anyway. Everybody breaks them and nobody gets any punishment for breaking the NDAs. We've certainly seen that out of Hollywood. that's for sure. But another escort agency revealed,

which escort agent? This is the Swiss Escort Avant-Garde agency. And this one is run by Suzanne. Just Suzanne runs the Swiss Escort-Avett-Garde agency. She says one of the most frequently requested things was I'm going to put this right you know backdoor sex be nice

try to be nice I know you got the kids so what's backdoor you know kids playing in the backyard that's what they're most that's what the most people requested kids playing in the backyard that's what they wanted she added about the type of clients

hiring escorts of the WF these types of people consider themselves untouchable which they often realistic are. I think physical attacks on escort ladies, for example, to live out a certain BDSM fetish are absolutely conceivable. But she's not saying it happened. She said it's just conceivable. Calm down, Suzanne. They'll be spread. Oh, it could happen. Sure, it could happen. I don't know. I got time for that. Thank you. It didn't. It didn't. Okay. It's my experience at the higher a man's professional social rank, the lower his inhibition

threshold for violence against women is. Is it your professional experience, Suzanne? Okay, all right, fine. Whatever. You know, you're an expert. You're not a forensic arborist, but you could be a forensic commercial intimacy expert.

No, no, no, stop. You've got to lay off the guns, man. People don't need to get shot all the time. Calm down. I don't know what your problem is, man. Holy cow. Now, of course, she said that she could only speak for our agency. She, of course, she can only speak for our agency.

Of course, we, absolutely. Our models are usually bilingual as we address a more sophisticated and high-quality clientele. Jan, I guess it's Jan. Jan is Europe, Jan. Jan and Leah from exclusive agency, Leah models, echoed, adding that in the Demand languages were English. I see, in-demand languages, not in-demand languages, were English as the main language and German and French.

Okay. It's advantageous if the companion is not only visually convincing, but also intelligent and quick-witted. No, be beautiful, shut up. Nobody, no. I'm sorry, no. I mean, I'm with you. I'm with you with the idea.

that you want to be, you know, intelligent and quick-witted, but for the most part, I'm paying you to look good and zip it, okay? And then when that only unzip it when I tell you, okay, that's what I'm paying you for. And so we know what's happening at Davos or what happened at Davos.

I mean, they're raking in some cash. So according to tit for tats, Mr. Berger, he added that the average booking duration at the WF, the WF is four hours. Okay. which combined with the average hourly rate and 300 bookings on the old tit for tat during the first three days of the WEF alone would amount to about 270,000 euros. So they're saying that probably at least a million euros for Davos.

And so they're, I mean, it's raking in some cash for the week and creating a nice touch to all the hoity-toits in. Davos at the World Economic Forum for just a little commercial intimacy. All right, let's go to the break room. I need something cold to drink desperately. Please follow me on my social media accounts at Jeffrey JFR on X, Jeff Fisher Radio, on Instagram and Facebook.

At Jeffrey JFR on the cameo app. at Jeffey JFR on the Cameo app. It's worth every darn penny, though. So, I mean, all the experts say a cameo by Jeffie is worth every darn penny. So, I mean, at Jeffie JFR on the Cameo app. So last week or the week before, I talked about how the FDA authorized Zinn. Okay. So the Food and Drug Administration

formerly okayed Zin nicotine pouches for sale after reviewing their safety. Now they've been out of the market. So it's kind of, thanks FDA, we appreciate it. We've been selling the hell out of them, but you're going to authorize it. We appreciate it.

So this is the first time that the sale of, they authorized 10 flavors of the popular product making the first time it signed off on nicotine pouches. health officials determine that the pouches pose a smaller risk of cancer than cigarettes or a traditional

chewing tobacco and they claim it still doesn't mean it's good for you the good news is for that's a Zen's parent company yeah hello they authorized this we're on the market so I've thought about getting them a couple of times

because I here's the deal all right I'm not going to smoke anymore I'm done smoking I miss it. There's a few and far between now where I actually miss smoking. I joke around with you plenty of times and I've got my fake cigarettes

in the drawer here that I can pretend that I'm smoking that I like. You know, because it puts a cigarette in my hand. It's not a real cigarette, but it puts a cigarette in my hand so I remember holding a cigarette in my hand, bringing the fire up to my face. It's so

weird, the whole thing that think about but you're actually doing, yeah, the lightning of a whole lighter of fire in front of my face. Oh, interesting. Could you do that without a cigarette? No. But I just, you know, I remember, I mean, that's, I mean, there's, oh, man, I could, I don't want to start smoking again.

You know, I got it. I had a hard event. I haven't smoked since my heart event. So it's okay. But, just a second, I want to finish up. to finish my smoke. I do chew some nicotine gum, so I still get a little bit of the nicotine

in my system. And I thought, well, maybe I'll try some Zen. And I asked about it once when they said there were shortages of it. And the place where I, you know, get lottery tickets and stuff and get gas, had them all. And I looked at them and I was like, nah, I'm not going to do that because then it's just going to, you know, I'm going to become addicted. I know I will.

I don't like, I never could really chew tobacco. I wasn't a big chewer. but I get doing it because you get that immediate rush of nicotine but it's just a nasty dirty habit and it just drives me crazy

you always got to have your two bottle of spit and it just drives me crazy but so I was joking around about the Zen well does that make me an enabler yes it does because

West brought me a tin of Zen and it was the spearmint flavor and I think I might go for a different flavor but I tried it this weekend. I didn't say anything to anyone because I just tried it this weekend, that's all. And it fits pretty good in between the gum, so you don't really realize it's there. I didn't mind the gum that I chew is four milligrams of nicotine.

Oh, why don't you buy the two? I thought you were trying to kick the habit. Well, you know, I like the nicotine feel. Did I get you the six? So, yes. And I could find myself. And I'm going to, if I do them all from this tin, because I think what comes to like 15 and a 10 or something like that,

if I continue to use this 10, I probably, probably will not buy anymore because I can see myself in very short period of time. How many zins do you have in your mouth, Jeff? I only put 10 in. It's not the whole 10. I didn't put the whole tin in at once. I just put 10 in. I'm busy so content zins in my mouth every time I turn around

And I don't need that in my life Well, I'm just telling myself that now I don't need that in my life right now But hey, it was authorized by the FDA So I'm watching the NFL games yesterday with my mouthful of zin And don't even get me started I can easily My mouthful is easy

I don't come Jeff doesn't talk anymore Which would be a very difficult thing for me I'd have to just hold the ball of zen In my hand Okay, I can I can talk now And uh

I got a handful of zin in my hand Are we done? Because I got a Yeah I'm gonna Go back all I want So anyway watching the games yesterday. And, uh,

I mean, I know the Eagles win. They're going to the Super Bowl. Congratulations. And of course, the Kansas City Chiefs win. The Chiefs, of course, when, Chiefs is the Chiefs. And they beat Buffalo and they're going to the Super Bowl,

looking their third straight. I mean, if they, if they went this one, I mean, that puts them, I mean, it doesn't make them even with New England, but it does set a new bar. Uh, it does set a new bar. And holy cow, I mean, it's just, you know, they just continue to be the Chiefs. I mean, you know, everyone was kind of rooting for Buffalo because it was Buffalo's year.

Ha ha ha ha. Oh, oh. Oh, it was a long season, too, man. A long season for these teams. And to just be kicked to the curb like that in the playoffs, that's tough to take. But as I'm watching the game, well, a couple. I was going to talk about something else because Taco Bell is doing this promotion that I want to talk to you about. But now I'm sidetracked with the football.

So during the Eagles game, there was a goal line stand going on from Washington, and they kept getting penalties to stop Philadelphia. And the same guy did the same penalty twice, I think two or three times in a row, got penalized that if he does it one more time, he's going to be, it's going to be an extra penalty on him. And then another penalty happened.

and the referee came out and said, if it happens again, we're awarding the score. And I thought, uh, no, uh, no. Well, apparently they can do that. It's in, you know, some rule that the NFL has. And, uh, you know, we read it for you this morning on Pat Graham, at least what the, you know, the actual rule is. But I'm thinking that rule can't stand.

I've been watching football since, I don't know, 1845, 1846, something like that whenever it started. And you can't, the referees can't be awarding scores. That just can't happen, which is why I don't believe it's ever happened before. But, because I was flabbergasted when I heard the referee say that. Flabbergasted. Like, what? The referee is awarding a score?

No? Because anything could happen. I mean, okay, so there's penalties and they keep moving the ball, you know, a half an inch or a quarter inch or whatever it is toward the goal line because it gets closer and closer until you can't really get it any closer. But what if Philadelphia then fumbles? And Washington picks it up and runs it in for a touchdown. Then it wasn't Philadelphia's score, was it?

What if Philadelphia fumbles and Washington recovers it still has the ball? Then the next play, as Washington's offense, they go in the end zone and get caught for a safety. So Philadelphia gets two points instead of the six points awarded from the referee. I mean, there's so many other things that could happen outside of that. I would just award them a score. Oh, okay. I mean, that has to be addressed at some point.

If that's still being in the rulebook, that has to be addressed. I'm sorry, no. That can't happen. We're not going to a lot of referees just to, I'm sure it says in the rule book that the commissioner can just take a win away and find a team of win. I'm positive. I remember reading about that at one point in the past too.

And that has to go away too. I mean, come on now. No. We're not going to take wins away. The commissioner can't do that. The referees can't be awarding scores. No, I'm sorry. It just did not sit well with me.

And as I'm watching these games, I see where Taco Bell is having their, and of course they don't have an agreement. They're spending money for a Super Bowl commercial, but they don't have an agreement with the NFL, so they can't call it a Super Bowl party thing. They're having a big game celebration at Taco Bells. where they're bringing the drive-through to the big game. So they're introducing the live moss drive-thru cams,

one-of-a-kind photo booth experience that turns Taco Bell drive-thrus into the ultimate stage for capturing and sharing live moss. I know it's live-moss. Shut up. I don't even want to hear it's live. It's live boss. He said live-moss.

He's a live boss. Okay, fine. Just don't worry about it. Thank you. Thank you. No one. No one supports it. No, never mind.

It's a bad joke. See, sometimes when you write a joke, you decide, nah, it's not worth it. Just know there's a lot of illegals leaving this country right now. Anyway, so fans can capture their drive-thru moment with a digital photo takeaway,

and if they choose opt-in for an opportunity to have their photos featured, in Taco Bell's big game ad campaign. So that's kind of cool, actually. I kind of like that a lot. Whether they have their live moss or live moths, drive-through camera, and they are going to bring it around the country

in the next two weeks so that they'll be taking everybody's pictures. It's already been, it's already done. Why are they advertising that? Hold on a second. these dates starting today the cams

will start their nationwide rolling tour and it's already over this happened already I thought this I saw the commercial yesterday promoting it during the games holy cow so it's already done

it's already happened you can't even Taco Bell you suck all right I mean now I'm sure it took you they did it in December and now they're going to use all these pictures in their Super Bowl commercial

it took you that a long of a turnaround for that so it was in L.A Ohio Tennessee Texas down in Houston Wachula Florida

and this happened in December why were they advertising it yesterday during the games then just a holy cow maybe it's still out there maybe it is, maybe it's still out there. This is kind of, I'm a little bummed now. I thought it was happening right now

so that they could use pictures, you know, of people going through the drive-through, I don't know, with their Kansas City Chiefs jersey on or their, you know, Philadelphia Eagle jersey on. I mean, maybe you set one up, I don't know, in Kansas City, Missouri and Philadelphia.

And he was recovering from all these health struggles, but apparently not. And so, you know, he's got a family. And I'm in 43. That's a tough age. So rest and peace to Anthony Leonard Platt. DJ Unk dead at the age of 43.

Then I was reminded by, you know, the Zen purveyor that it's Eddie Van Halen's birthday today too. So I guess we have to celebrate that. So happy birthday to Eddie. Do we have to celebrate his death day, October 6th, too, in 2020? Or can we just say, yeah, he was, you know, All right. It's your birthday.

And actually it was yesterday, according to this. Not today. So you lied to me. Because I just looked, I wanted to say, it wasn't really his birthday? Yes. January 26th, he was born in Amsterdam. Today is not his birthday.

Take it back. Take it back. Oh, in a different time zone it is, Jeff. Oh, okay. All right. All right, fine. Today is also International Holocaust Remembrance Day. So the 80th anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz.

So as long as we're doing remembrance days, we might as well do that as well. So you're going to celebrate, celebrate International Holocaust Remembrance Day 2. It's not much of a party, but you can go ahead and celebrate it. You know, we talk about it all the time on this show, that, you know, what would we do with ourselves and the planet when an animal goes extinct?

and people get so wound up and we try to save them and that's what we do we have zoos and we set them up to try to you know save the animals but really we have zoos so that we as humans can go look at the different animals on the planet and say oh look

isn't that animal weird oh look isn't that animal beautiful and if they die off oh well we clean the cage we put another animal in yep look at that there's another one and we're all worried that what happens when animals go extinct.

Well, now, come to find out, and this happens so many times, a once extinct bird species, this has already started wrong, it's a lie. A once species of bird they thought was extinct has re-evolved and returned to the island it inhabited thousand years ago. So maybe it really wasn't extinct, was it? No. The species they claim was wiped out around 136,000 years ago when the island was submerged by the sea. Remarkably, within 20,000 years of its extinction, the bird reappeared and evolved into the flightless al-dabra rail once again. Scientists say this marks one of the fastest known timelines for a bird to lose its ability to fly and the only documented case of the bird species becoming flightless twice.

so I don't think they were ever extinct and I'm not sure that that timeline actually works but if the when the island sank the birds either just sat there and swam or they flew away and we are good and then I see where the centuries for centuries the spotted hyenas were absent from Egypt. And they thought that there was only a few left in the sub-Saharan Africa. But nope, they're back. They showed back up in Egypt. They're smoking cigarettes party in Egypt.

So they've got spotted hyenas. They claim 5,000 years. They figured it was long enough. You know, we've been gone long enough. Let's go back to Egypt. I miss the joint. So they're there and they have verifiable records. And so they have encountered.

according to this in 2024 a year ago the locals said yeah I encountered a couple and killed my goats and I killed it wait what? Yeah I killed my goats so it's the way it goes

so they're back and just know that if you go to Egypt you're probably going to be able to see the spotted hyena again it's back and this time it's pissed It's hockey season, and you can get anything you need delivered with Uber Eats. Well, almost, almost anything.

There's an urgent recall of salmon sold at Costco that carries a reasonable risk of death. The FDA confirmed the status of a class one recall for Costco's Kirkland smoked salmon brand. What is happening at Costco?

No wonder they're letting Al Sharpe. and March in their giveaway $25 gift cards. Anyway, the Kirkland smoked salmon brand, supplier Acme Smoked Fish. Love them. Big fan of Acme Smoked Fish. They voluntarily issued, did they? They voluntarily issued, okay. A. Class 1 recall last year.

And then they have now classified the recall as the highest risk level, right? So a spokesperson for the supplier, Acme smoked fish, assured consumers that all products under the recall have been removed from the marketplace. You have to worry about it. They're already out of air. We've taken care of it. We've received a letter telling them, don't eat the salmon that was sold. And we're good. We've got it all under control.

The Listeria bacteria can survive refrigeration and freezing. so people are at a higher risk of serious infections and should avoid eating the types of food most likely to contain the Listeria bacteria. But it's fine now. So don't even worry about that recall because we've got them all off the shelves.

Does make one thing, I don't know, twice about picking up the old Kirkland brand smoked salmon though, doesn't it? I mean, I know they say it's okay, I get it. And if I was really in the mood, And was in Costco and wanted some salmon. Would I get the Kirkland brand smoke salmon?

Okay. What more recalls is that Kia is recalling more than 80,000 vehicles over an airbag and seatbelt issue. Oh, and you're going to be notified. So if you're going to be notified, we're going to let you know. if you have the Nero EV, we're going to let you know sometime in the next in a couple of months.

You know, sometime in March. Maybe we'll do that. Maybe what time is it now? Yeah, it's January. We're coming up on February. We probably, we could probably get an email sent out in March, don't you think?

Yeah, we could probably do that. So they're recalling 80,000 of its Nero vehicles over an issue that could prevent their seatbelts and airbags from functioning properly. Is that an issue? Is that an issue? I, you know, yes. Let me answer that for you.

Yes. So apparently, frequent adjustments to the front passenger seat may pose a serious safety risk by damaging wiring beneath the seat that controls critical features, such as, I don't know, airbags and seat belts. So the automaker said, yeah, we filed a report to the NHTSA. and what could happen is it could prevent airbags from properly deploying during a crash, deploying unexpectedly or not switching off for small passengers, increasing the potential for injury. And, you know, the recall affects just the 80,000, 255 Nero, NeroEVs,

and the Nero plug-in hybrid vehicles manufactured between 2022 and 2024 and equipped with the manual front passenger seat. And there's no crashes or injuries or the TACTS. or fires have been reported. Uh-huh. But key owners, they'll be notified by March. Yeah, I mean, look, it's, I can't believe it. By March, what do you mean?

You know who owns your cars. You know who purchased your cars, at least originally. I don't know, send them an email. Drop a note in the box. Drop a postcard in the box. So you're going to be notified by March. And the dealership staff will check. the wiring under the front passenger seat,

fix or adjust as needed, and add protective covers to prevent damage. So until you get your letter sometime in March, I don't know, maybe you look under your front seat. Maybe you don't move it back and forth as often as you have.

Maybe when hubby gets in, he sits cramped when he drives. Leave it for the wife and the shorter version. Or you just look underneath there yourself. There's an idea. And if the wiring looks kind of rigged, then you pull in and you take it to the Kia dealer and say,

hey, I haven't received my letter that you're going to send me in March. But how about you fix my car? Just a thought. Just a thought for me. These companies never cease to amaze me. All right, let's get out of here. I'll leave you with a joke of the day.

Email to me from Grandpa Bill, Grandpa Bill trying to put the work in for the joke. So a wealthy couple, John and Margaret are at a fundraiser for the evening when Margaret grows tired. I'm going to go home. No problem, says hubby. I'll get a ride home later. Take the limo.

So upon arrival home, Margaret finds Giles or butler lying on the couch, relaxing. She walks up to Giles and orders him, Giles, take off my dress. Giles complies and takes off her dress. Then she orders him, Giles, take off my stilettos. And Giles takes off her stilettos. Giles, take off my brazier. He complies. Takes off her bresier.

She orders, okay, Giles, take off my panties. And he does. Then she looks him up and down. If I ever catch you wearing my clothes again, you're fired. See, because she wasn't telling him he was, now you got it. Stream and subscribe to more Blaze Media content. at the blaze.com slash podcasts.
