Starting point is 00:00:00 Boarding for Flight 246 to Toronto is delayed 50 minutes. Ugh, 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. What you win is yours to keep groovy. Hey, I won! Boating will begin when passenger fisher is done celebrating.
Starting point is 00:00:22 19 plus Ontario only. Please play responsibly. Concerned by your gambling or that if someone close, you call 1866-3-3-1-2-60 or visit comexonterio.ca. Blaze Radio Network And now Chewing the Fat with Jeff Fisher So I thought this idea was genius The Powers that B
Starting point is 00:00:43 disagreed So a Montana breeder Jack Shubarth Apparently smuggled Argolly genetic material into the U.S. Now the Argolly sheep are the largest wild sheep on earth.
Starting point is 00:01:01 Okay. And what he wanted to do and what he did was clone this ram named Montana Mountain King. He used the MMK's seaman to create hybrids, bread for trophy hunting preserves. Now, to me, that's a genius idea. Apparently, it's not a genius idea because he was going to sell giant hybrid. sheep to hunting operations because hunters would pay thousands of dollars for a chance to kill animals engineered for that size. Now they're cloned animals. But apparently this 81 year old Montana man sent since now to six months in prison for illegally cloning an endangered Marco Polo
Starting point is 00:01:49 Argolly sheep, nicknamed the Montana Mountain King. The cloned ram was used to create hybrids designed for Trophy hunting, yeah. Authorities say the case highlights how powerful biotech can be exploited, raising urgent questions about conservation and ethics. I mean, he found a way to save your endangered species by cloning them, making them bigger, and then he was going to charge people to go hunt them because they wanted to kill the larger animal, but they were cloned animals. So, people are unhappy with Jack.
Starting point is 00:02:32 So he was sentenced to six months in federal prison, $20,000 fine. He was also ordered to pay $4,000 to wildlife conservation and forfeit breeding rights. Wow. I mean, that's an awful lot. That's an awful lot to me for creating a hybrid animal that could be killed and just Keep creating more of them. It's not like he was getting rid of the... I know. Don't look at me like that.
Starting point is 00:03:01 I just... You know what? Good. Good. I'm glad he's in jail. How dare he try to come up with a plan to save an animal and then make money to have them killed by hunters who were killing cloned animals and not the real endangered species animal? Yeah, how dare he?
Starting point is 00:03:22 Welcome! Welcome to Chewing the Fat. So in 2020, Playboy ceased publishing their monthly print magazine, sticking instead with online content. And at one time, I mean, Playboy was everywhere, right? I mean, the first Playboy club opened in 1960 in Chicago, and that was the headquarters at the time. And they were opening up clubs all around the world. Except, you know, I mean, the first magazine was in 1953. and then
Starting point is 00:03:58 featuring Marilyn Monroe on the cover. And yeah, it's a pretty big deal. And Hugh Hefner, who has now since died, had his Playboy mansion in Los Angeles.
Starting point is 00:04:15 And that was the deal. That was the world. Well, now, Playboy is planning to relocate its global headquarters from Los Angeles to Miami Beach and open a Playboy
Starting point is 00:04:30 Club there. So even Playboy is getting out of California. The Miami Beach headquarters at the top of a luxury office building will include studios to support Playboy's growing creator network. And a club
Starting point is 00:04:46 will have a restaurant as well as members only section inspired by the Playboy Mansion in Los Angeles. Miami Beach is among the most dynamic and culturally influential cities in the country, making it the ideal home for Playboy's next chapter, according to the CEO of Playboy Inc. Ben Cohn. So look for it. Playboy, now getting out of California and moving to Miami Beach. You know, speaking of Playboys, I see where the son of Norway's crowned princess
Starting point is 00:05:21 has been charged with 32 offenses, including four rapes and several acts of violence and assault. Now, again, you know, he's been charged with this. That doesn't make him guilty. Uh-huh. Okay, so Maurice Morgh, H-O-I-B-Y, H-O-I-B-Y, however you pronounce that son of Norway's crown princess.
Starting point is 00:05:49 That's, you know, Marius. Borgh, He was born in a relationship before the crown princess married the crowned prince. And so, okay. So he's, and now the crowned princess has a couple of kids with the crown prince. So he's just like out. I mean, he's just nobody. I mean, obviously he's, you know, a royal adjacent, but there's no. bloodline to any of the kingdom.
Starting point is 00:06:26 Anyway, so he has been, he's been under investigation for quite some time, and he's a, you know, really, really fun guy to be around, I'm sure. In addition to four counts of rape, the charges include domestic abuse against a former partner, several counts of violence, disturbing the peace, vandalism, and violation of restraining orders against another former partner. He also, oh, is charged with filming the genitals of a number of women without their knowledge or consent. Public prosecutor told reporters that the maximum penalty for the offense is listed in the
Starting point is 00:07:07 indictment is up to 10 years. Okay. They're very serious acts. Yeah, yeah, we got it. Okay, so the fact that he's a member of the royal family should, of course, not mean that he should be treated more lightly or more severely than he. if similar acts had been committed by others. Yeah, well, he really is just royal adjacent.
Starting point is 00:07:26 I mean, the Crown Princess's son, but not the Crown Prince's son. No. Sorry about that. And apparently he just says, I do not agree with the claims regarding rape and domestic violence. You know, some of the other stuff, yeah, I did. You know, I already admitted to the assault and the vandalism
Starting point is 00:07:47 way back in 2024, you know, last year. Yeah, I did some of that. But I don't admit to all of this stuff. Plus, you know what? I've been really struggling with, you guessed it, alcohol and cocaine. I've been really struggling with that. In fact, some of these things that happened, I was under the influence of alcohol and coke.
Starting point is 00:08:09 So I'm having, I was suffering from these mental issues, and I've been struggling a long time with substance abuse. So, you know, sorry. So at the age of four, his mother married the crown prince. And like I said, she's had two more kids that are bloodline to the royals, but not him, okay? So he's got younger brothers with bloodline to the throne. Well, at least, I mean, one,
Starting point is 00:08:46 there's a prince and a princess 21 and 19 that are well step brother and sister right because mom is the same mom but he's in big time trouble and the picture of him that they have at some he was at some dinner this was in three about three years ago man he looks like a lot like you know who plays Eddie Harrigan in Mobland, the grandson, Anson Boone, I think his name is, looks a lot like him. And as much of a dirtbag, too. So it's kind of like real life. Eddie Harrigan is actually playing maybe the character of the Crown Prince's
Starting point is 00:09:32 adjacent royalty. And also a lot of people were pointing out, it looks like Joffrey from Game of Thrones. Yeah, you know, some of his actions definitely do. but the look is definitely Eddie Harrigan from Mobland. And if you haven't seen it, you can catch that on Paramount Plus. This is there. That's not a paid advertisement.
Starting point is 00:09:54 This is the show that I enjoyed. And he absolutely looks like that. And he's in big time trouble. So will the prince do his 10 years in prison for any of this? Nah, I don't think so. He's really struggling with alcohol and cocaine. And, phew, man, I've been having. some mental issues and struggling with this for a long time and I just I just need to get some help.

Starting point is 00:13:15 to help power the tech company's data centers on the Tennessee Valley Authority grid. We need to be doing this all over the country, and that needs to happen like yesterday. So the Hermes 2 reactor, developed by Kairos, will dispatch 50 megawatts of electricity enough to power about 36,000 homes.
Starting point is 00:13:37 TVA will purchase, the electricity from the reactor, making it the first utility in the U.S. to sign an off-take agreement with an advanced nuclear plant. Uh, yeah, we need to be doing that around the country, like right now. Um, their power will deploy an advanced nuclear plant connected to the Tennessee Valley Authority's electric grid by 2030. Yeah, I mean, I guess you have to add it to whatever grid you're part of, uh, just so that they get their little piece of the pie.
Starting point is 00:14:08 but I'm okay with these neighborhoods, say one that I live in, being able to just use the Cairo's power nuclear plant, and that's where we get our power from. We don't have to pay the company, or we pay them and not you, whatever. There has to be, I know there has to be a company, but we just have to find a way to have cheap energy in this country. And I don't want all these companies,
Starting point is 00:14:36 I mean, I say all these companies, Google. Amazon, Walmart, any of these huge AI company startups, I don't want them draining power from my power bank because they're going to be using up all kinds of power to keep their AI systems running. Go ahead, use their own little nuclear plan over there.
Starting point is 00:15:02 But I want to still be able to walk in my house and turn on the lights. So Hermes 2 is the first, development under agreement that Google and Cairo signed last year to launch the startup's technology at a commercial scale. The reactor's output is equivalent of the consumption of, as I said, about 36,000 homes. The electricity will help power Google's data centers in Montgomery County, Tennessee, and Jackson County, Alabama.
Starting point is 00:15:28 Good. Good. We're moving the U.S. a step closer to deploying advanced nuclear reactors by making some consumers are not on the hook making sure some consumers are not on the hook for the cost of building the plant. Yeah, no kidding. And this is what they're talking about building on the moon. I got to talk to this company. We need to talk about how fast they can do it because they're talking about Hermes 2 is expected to start operating at Oak Ridge in 2030. So they've received a construction permit for the reactor from the nuclear regulatory.
Starting point is 00:16:05 commission, it needs to apply for an operating license with the NRC before the plan can start operations. All right, we need to, I mean, Trump needs to fast track this stuff. TVA declined to disclose how much it will pay for electricity from Hermes 2 and asked, when asked by CNBC, Cairo's declined to disclose the estimated cost of the plan. So, we're looking at what? The last two reactors built in the U.S. In Georgia cost $18 billion.
Starting point is 00:16:40 That seems like a drop in the bucket today. And these mini reactors are not going to be costing that. So that needs to happen around the country tomorrow. So if it's taking them until 2030 and they've already done all this advance work, we need to definitely pick our spots around the country for these mini reactors. today. Now, will these AI companies have enough money and do what they say they're going to do in the end? I don't know. You know, I went down a list of headlines on Friday of all the stuff that's good and kind of good and kind of bad about the AI companies. But I was reading this morning about companies since the induction of an introduction of AI. Companies have been doing what companies in capitalistic societies do best.
Starting point is 00:17:29 They try to use it to boost productivity and bottom lines. But in reality, according to this, asking a robot that tends to hallucinate isn't the key ingredient to the recipe for business success. So a new report from McKinsey and Company, and I love their reports, found that although nearly eight in ten companies use generative AI at some proportion, also found no significant bottom line impact, particularly outside the tech sector. So the tools remain too flawed to trust without a human babysitter, even with Open AIs, you know, chat GPT5 and all the rest of the new shiny parts to the chat GPTs. So human factors add to the stall. Some employees resist training. So it's the humans fault.
Starting point is 00:18:21 Some employees resist training, the very tech that could replace them, while others simply don't know how. Right. The result, nearly half of the companies shelved their AI pilot programs at the end of 2024, and the number is set to rise. Okay, so now they're blaming it on the humans, and we just have to get rid of it because the humans don't want to sit and train with something that's going to replace them. Duh.
Starting point is 00:18:51 Yeah, that'll help the bottom line. Listen, now, what you need to do is train this machine to do, to do your two jobs. And then as soon as the machine is doing your two jobs, you need to take a hike. Take care. Okay. Now what they're also saying, though,
Starting point is 00:19:06 is that AI's business acumen might have been oversold. So they're saying that, you know, maybe the tech's, you know, hype cycles aren't quite as, quite as good as what they say. Okay, let's hope that's so. On behalf of the humans.
Starting point is 00:19:24 but I have a feeling that just like these companies who said, yeah, it's the employees. They're resisting training. And, oh, man, some just don't even know. They don't even want to mess with it at all. So, yeah, we ditched the program for now. But, you know, it'll be back around. Yeah, it'll be back around when another company has it figured out how it trained the
Starting point is 00:19:49 employees to do with those employees that you hired wouldn't do. And then it's going to be. have a nice day. All right, let's go to the break room. I need something cold to drink desperately. Be sure to follow me on my social media at Jeffie JFR on X. Jeff Fisher Radio on Facebook and Instagram.

And you can always order a cameo from me at Jeffey JFR on the Camio app at Jeffey JFR on the Camio app. That's not free but it is worth every doggone nickel that you spend on your cameo at

Starting point is 00:22:27 I'll get you $20 off and annual subscription, please do that. That's one of the things that helps keep this show free. And thank you for subscribing to Blaze TV. And thank you for subscribing to chewing the fat. Appreciate it. Interesting that now YouTube, apparently, is making a play for the Academy Awards.
Starting point is 00:22:47 Who's been saying they should do that? Oh, I know, me. And for sure, the social media companies need to be doing that. So the video platform has reportedly inquired about a, acquiring the Oscars when their rights, you know, when the contract with Disney is up. And I think that expires in 2028. So YouTube's push into live events already includes the NFL Sunday ticket. Another growing sports roster.
Starting point is 00:23:14 Landing the Oscars would be a huge for the platform. Would it though? I realize, you know, I'm okay with it. I have no problem with YouTube having the Oscars. But I don't know. That would be a huge, it would be huge for YouTube to have the Oscars. It isn't traditional Hollywood player, that's for sure. YouTube, the world's most watch video platform, though,
Starting point is 00:23:35 and would reach a massive global audience without the paywalls. And potential lifeline for a show facing declining relevance. Yeah, the Oscars, all these award shows are facing declining relevance because we have social media. We've seen all the clips. We've seen the stars. in the way they live. And it used to be that, oh, we didn't get a chance to see the stars walking down the red carpet.
Starting point is 00:24:05 Today, we see the stars sitting next to their pool every day. So seeing them walk down the red carpet is no big deal. So you've got to create another event, another kind of event. And then maybe NBC, I don't know that NBC can do that. Netflix, other streaming platforms can try to put something together. And YouTube might be able to put something together. And kind of just break away from the old. of the what was.
Starting point is 00:24:29 And let's be looking at what could be. Geez, am I holding a meeting here or something? Let's try to get rid of the old, shall we? And think about what could be. Yeah, there you go. Let's do that. I mean, Taylor Sheridan is doing that. Not far from where I live in Fort Worth, Texas.
Starting point is 00:24:49 Not far from where this show originates from in Irving, Texas, which is in the DFW. Taylor Sheridan building this 450,000 square foot production complex in Fort Worth, not far from where I actually live. It's going to be the state's largest studio facility. 1.5 billion film incentive program Texas has. So I don't know how much money they're going to get with that. But, I mean, that was their big push.
Starting point is 00:25:20 Sheridan and McConaughey and Harrelson all lobbied Texas to, you know, start bringing movie and television productions to Texas. So he built it on this 27,000 acre campus of Ross Perrault. That's over there by Alliance. There's Alliance Airport and Ross Perrault owned all that property over there. And it shows, apparently it shows Paramount's commitment to the most valuable creator. Yeah, that would be Taylor Sheridan. And so they're, you know, they've already talking about extending his contract when it expires in
Starting point is 00:25:50 2028. I mean, they have Landman, the Madison, Lioness is supposed to film there. already this year. Taylor has created some huge projects for Paramount. So I'm looking forward to it. And that could work into some serious work for people in this area because you may need it. And it's coming to DFW. Remember Quibi?
Starting point is 00:26:14 That was like five years ago now. Wow, it seems like that's another lifetime ago. But Quibi, I actually love the idea of Quibi. It was to have short form creation. shows on your phone and it was specifically for your phone now I believe that would have gone over really well had COVID not hit
Starting point is 00:26:33 because they launched Quibi and then everybody was locked in their homes there was no point there was no point to Quibi because nobody was traveling but it was you know their whole idea was to have you know bite size mobile TV viewing well a group of Hollywood veterans apparently are going to try it again
Starting point is 00:26:52 this time They claim that they have, you know, less budget and they're more shameless content. Oh, okay. So Lloyd Braun, former ABC Entertainment Chief, Jana O'Winograde, ex-Shortemps president, Susan Rovner, ex-NBC Universal Content Chair, and Chris Mugirk, Siniverse, CEO, just announced Micro Co. Micro Co. And they swear that, hey, we're different now.
Starting point is 00:27:27 Okay, so what they're doing is opposite of, I mean, Emmy bait for sure. So there are one to three minute vertical videos with soap opera plots on steroids. Think pregnant by my ex-professor's dad. Yes, that's actually a real short title. Episodes hooked you in three seconds, hit a cliffhanger by 23 seconds, then make you pay to see what happens next. Oh, it's TikTok meets telenovela,
Starting point is 00:27:59 and they think it'll actually work this time. Okay. Sure, all right. I mean, Quibi burned through all kinds of kids. That was such a money grab. They all paid each other hundreds of thousands, if not millions of dollars, and they created a couple of things that were worthy.
Starting point is 00:28:19 The rest was all being. and it could have been such a good thing. It's very, very sad. But, okay, we'll see. This is post-pandemic now, though people aren't locked in. So it's also post-Tic-Tac. TikTok, I mean,
Starting point is 00:28:36 companies are looking to use these creators for content. It doesn't say that's what they're doing here with MicroCo. But there's plenty of companies out there looking to add content creators from Instagram, TikTok. I don't know if they're using any X creators, they may be, but to create content on their streaming service. So just keep an eye out for MicroCo,
Starting point is 00:29:09 because man, doesn't that sound like something you want? Doesn't it? At Desjardin, we speak business. We speak startup funding and comprehensive games.

Starting point is 00:30:00 Who died today? Who died today? Well, let's begin with Elon Dershowitz, film producer, and, yes, you recognize the name, Alan Dershowitz's son, a dead at the age of 64. Elon, very sad. The cause apparently was a stroke, according to his family. Wow. So he was a film and podcast producer, Hollywood cinema, television, digital media. died at the age of 64 because of a stroke, a stroke at 64.
Starting point is 00:30:41 Wow, very sad. So his career began. He co-produced reversal of fortune. Wow, that was Oscar movie there. I mean, that's a good way to start out. So anyway, very sad. Elon Dershowitz, son of famed attorney, Alan Dershowitz. dead at the age of 64.
Starting point is 00:31:07 Then we have a Hollywood legend. Hollywood legend, Dana Tana. Danatana has died. Yes, he ran the popular restaurant that everyone loved to go to in Hollywood, West Hollywood restaurant. He named dishes after some celebrities.
Starting point is 00:31:28 In fact, one of my favorite things about the Danatana restaurant and Danatana. is that the name of, what's his face, from the TV show, you know, Vegas, that's right, the TV show Vegas, who starred, oh, shoot, who is the stupid, Robert Eurek starred in Vegas, and his name was Dan Tanna.
Starting point is 00:32:02 He was name. He was named Dan Tanna after Dan Tana's place in Hollywood. Remember Dan Tanna? Yeah, in Vegas. He had the big, like the loft studio apartment room and he had the Barbara chair. Anyway, stupid TV show. Anyway, I mean, everybody went there. I mean, he knew them all.
Starting point is 00:32:22 No question about it. Sammy Davis Jr. Frank Sinatra, they were all there. Carson was said to love this place. he had studied drama with Natalie Wood and Angie Dickinson and Angie Dickie, the full hour. And apparently he made his film debut in 57,
Starting point is 00:32:42 but then he said, yeah, I'm going to do the restaurant. I'm going to get the restaurant. And he opened in 1964 and he didn't look back. Okay. Now, I was looking at the menu of Dan Tannas. And you were not getting out of Dan Tannas cheap. Okay? Let's just say, let's just pick one now here.
Starting point is 00:33:04 Pimento and avica, panamento and anchovies, $21. No, thank you. Soup, minestrone or strata cattacetele. That's $16. Oh, you can get a fresh green salad for $13. Let's see what the calamari,
Starting point is 00:33:24 for the calamari, Freddie, $28 bucks for calamari. Let's go down here to the pasta dinner, Shall we? You get the Michael Cain, the Pente Aborette. That's $30. Everything in the pasta dinner is under 35, 35 and under. Let's see what else they have down here.
Starting point is 00:33:40 Desserts. Let's check out desserts, shall we, at the Dantanis. The cheesecake, lemon or chocolate, that's $16. You can get vanilla ice cream for 13. Yeah, if you needed a cappuccino at the end of your meal. Yeah, that's $16. Okay. Now, you have plenty of a la carte entrees on here.
Starting point is 00:34:03 You have the George Clooney, the Veal Cutlet Melanais. That's 50 bucks. Oh, those are all 50. Okay. Those are all, all the veal plates are 50. The Veal Rotan, Imal Rothman, that's 62. Ooh. And the Vlaid Divac, the Barcoli, that's 80.
Starting point is 00:34:21 Ooh, that's a special dish right there. Lobster tail, the Fraude de Valli, that's 87. both of the lobsters are $87. You're not getting out of Dan Tanna's cheap, okay? But that's not the point. You're not going there to get out cheap, okay? If you just want a New York steak, the Helen, just order the Helen.
Starting point is 00:34:42 It's a 12-ounce New York steak. You get it for 82 bucks. Is that a problem? I didn't think so. So rest in peace to Danatana, dead at the age of 90. Then we have comedian Gary Lai. little comedian gary little dead at the age of 61 apparently Gary
Starting point is 00:35:05 has uh has died because he rolled down a hill I know I don't know what happened it's just he's walking along and he rolls down a hill and then he's dead so it probably hit his head I mean that's not funny it could happen to anybody I was just reading story. All right, so rest in peace to Gary Little, dead at the age of 61. I was just reading a story about John Hyatt, one of my favorite musicians. I didn't know he fell down like a year and a half ago, heard himself, he screwed up his skull, everything, he's all messed up, and now he's got the same thing that everybody has, and I think he had it before the fall. So I don't know if the fall actually led him into this disease, but he's got that, you know, what's the one? We just talked
Starting point is 00:35:56 about it the other day. You know, the Louis-Lody Body dementia. So John's got that. I think he had that before the fall down down the hill. Anyway, I just was reading about John High. Very sad. And I guess he's performing now by himself, which I mean, I'm a huge fan of John Hyde. I've seen him several
Starting point is 00:36:12 times and I love his work. I haven't seen him in a while. And apparently now I know why. So rest in peace to Gary Little, the comedian, dead from fall down a hill at the age of 61. Then we already have people dying at the Celebration Key, the private resort for the Carnival Cruise Line.
Starting point is 00:36:33 Uh, yeah. So two American tourists have lost their lives in separate drowning incidents. Oh, okay. Uh, it doesn't necessarily make me want to go to Celebration Key. So the tragedies occurred less than a month apart. I mean, this is a, they open this place up. It's the Grand Bahama Island Resort open to, just the Carnival Cruise Line guests.
Starting point is 00:36:57 They claim that they're going to have, there'll always be at least one ship dock there, but they can dock two at a time if need be. And so the first incident involved a 79-year-old man who became unresponsive while snorkeling at the beach around 1 p.m. in the afternoon. They apparently, you know, administered CPR and, uh, too long. Now that, you know, again,
Starting point is 00:37:22 so rest in peace to the 79-year-old man. Then they got a 74-year-old woman who was found unresponsive in one of the resort's freshwater lagoons. And she was pronounced dead after they tried to revive her. So, I mean, I know they're kind of up there in age and they're just hanging out, snorkeling around, and maybe swimming around a little bit at the old carnival cruise lines, a celebration key island fun. but if you're starting to lose guess doesn't sound like that's a good promotion. So rest in peace.
Starting point is 00:38:01 The two people who have died at the Grand Bahama Island Resort, the 79-year-old female and the 74-year-old man. No, it's the 79-year-old man. I've got to make sure I say rest in peace, right. It's the 79-year-old man who was snorkeling. and then was found out in responsive, rest in peace to him. And it was a 74-year-old woman who was found out and responsive at one of the freshwater lagoons, rest in peace to her.

I'm kind of excited, actually. I just looked to see if anyone won the Powerball last night. And no, no one did win the jackpot. Okay. So the jackpot rolled over, and we're now at, as of today, at this time of recording 8, 19, 2025, you know, sometime in the morning. You don't need to know the exact time. It's in the morning. It's in the a.m.
Starting point is 00:39:44 It's before noon. $643 million, $290.6 million, which I'm sure will go up by Wednesday's drawing of August 20th, 2025. However, there was not a jackpot winner, okay? There was not a $2 million winner. But it says here, there were $1 million winners in Arizona. Arizona and Texas. I could have won a million bucks. I haven't looked at my ticket yet,
Starting point is 00:40:10 but it's possible that I have won a million dollars from the powerball. And I'm a little bit excited right now. And I don't want to look because the odds of me winning that million dollars are pretty slim. But right now in my mind and my heart, I have a shot. I have a shot. Don't look at me like you want to bring me down. Don't do it. Don't bring me down.
Starting point is 00:40:33 I still have a shot. It's mine. You know, I haven't looked at the ticket. I just know what the website said. There's a $1 million winner in Arizona and Texas. So it could be my ticket. And I'm a little bit excited, okay? Because I could definitely use the million dollars,
Starting point is 00:40:53 even though it ends up being whatever. It's not a million dollars. I could still use it. And then we have the mega drawing, which is, I think that's tonight. Yeah, the mega is tonight. That's $216 million. So what's the cash payout, 97.0 million?
Starting point is 00:41:08 So yeah, nobody wants that. Never mind. All right, so I see a video yesterday, and it's way, I mean, it's so good. And, you know, it's about this lady who's talking as she's talking about how she's not going to make breakfast for her husband. And then it talks about how, then at the end of the video, she says that they're going to get a divorce because he found, out about the videos and it's really good and it's too good and you know and really it's disappointing because just remember whenever something seems to be too good. My husband is mad at me because he walked in and he saw that I'm making breakfast and I told
Starting point is 00:41:50 him that this was for me and my daughter and then if he wanted some he needed to cook for himself. I told him I was not going out of my way to make breakfast for him. It's only for me and my daughter. Right. You're that hungry. There's a McDonald's down the street. Or there's eggs in the fridge and there's baking and you can make it yourself. He's acting like this not cooking for him thing is brand new.
Starting point is 00:42:13 I gave him a list of things that I don't do the day that we got married. Okay, so if that's true, he should have left right then. I gave him a list of things I wouldn't do when we got married. Okay, thank you. We're done. We're not getting married. But, you know, I digress. And he was okay with it.
Starting point is 00:42:31 Was he? What's the problem? There's any leftovers. If there's leftovers, if there's no leftovers, then I'm sorry. You're going to have to... See, it's too good. That's too good.
Starting point is 00:42:43 Right? You're sorry. Now, you want to... In today's world, I want to believe it. I want to believe this is true in today's world. All right, I let it go. Not my job to put me. I'm sorry.
Starting point is 00:42:57 And then on top of that, I don't think you're sorry. He wants a Friday. No, I'm sorry. Again, I don't think you're sorry. I'm not going to do it. So my husband decided to drain our joint bank account, and leave me after so much controversy on my videos.
Starting point is 00:43:12 Uh-huh. I guess he got, you know, wind of the videos, and, yeah, he's doing your band to count, and he has told me that I have to be. At first, I thought he was going to be able to stay here, but he returned, and he said that I need to pack up my things and go. Aha. Yeah. Because I have children, and me and my children are not going to be at the street.
Starting point is 00:43:34 Uh-huh. Well, that's, you know, that's, you are, I will go because it's true. but see what I mean it's too good it's too good it's too good and the reason it's too good
Starting point is 00:43:43 is because it's not real I know I'm bummed too I really did want it to be real but it's not
Starting point is 00:43:51 all right let's get out of here I'll give you the joke of the day the joke of the day it is real okay remember that

I wonder what happened. Turn around, let's ask him. So I did a 180 and drove up alongside, and they said, hey, Superman, what's up?
Starting point is 00:44:28 Did you go up against Luthor? And Superman just shook his head. Do you fight Doomsday? No, guys. Just leave me alone. Come on. And Batman, Robert, like, Come on, tell us.
Starting point is 00:44:38 Fine, I'll tell you if you leave me alone. I was flying over the city on patrol, and I saw a Wonder Woman sunbathing in her backyard. So? She always does that, said Batman. Naked? asked Superman. Oh. Superman went on, well, you know me.
Starting point is 00:44:59 Everything is super.
