Starting point is 00:00:36 Just a heads up. Just a heads up. Everything, I'm sure, is going to be fine. But the first human with the flesh-eating screw worm parasite has been identified in a person in Maryland. So the person who received treatment in Maryland is the first confirmed case in the U.S. Oh, thank you.
Starting point is 00:01:04 Yeah, I don't know. I don't know if that's what he sounds like or not. So we were concerned about the screw worm of, you know, affecting our cattle and other warm-blooded animals because they've got a big outbreak down in Central America and it's moving up through Mexico coming into Texas.
Starting point is 00:01:23 And in fact, we've talked about how they are setting up these flyers, factories. They're going to make these sterile flies and get them out, which then in turn will make the screw worms go away. Okay, sure. Absolutely. If you're going to make those sterile fly facilities, no problem. In fact, we made a deal. We're going to build one. We're going to use one in Mexico
Starting point is 00:01:47 and we're going to build one in Texas. You know, because they are scared of the screw room and rightfully so. But they say that now that, you know, It's highly, highly unlikely that it's going to go to humans. Well, it has. So I don't know what happens. I don't know if the cattle and beef people start freaking out even more. Right now, I mean, the U.S. cattle herd is at its smallest size in seven decades.
Starting point is 00:02:20 70 years are smallest herd size. That's a little scary thought. Now, I will say, that if they have to worry about screw worms, going to be a lot lower. So screw worms are these parasitic flies whose female lays eggs in wounds on any warm-blooded animal. Once the eggs hatch,
Starting point is 00:02:44 hundreds of screw-worm larvae use their sharp mouths to burrow through living flesh, eventually killing their host, if it's left untreated, of course. Now, the maggots feeding is similar to a screw being driven into wood, giving the pests their name, so it hurts. It hurts the animal.
Starting point is 00:03:09 Ouch. And it hurts the human. Yeah, more than that, my friend, more than that. And they've been devastating cattle and wildlife, no problem. So now we have to worry about it in humans. However, I will say this. The human in Maryland, I'm sorry, the person in Maryland, that has or had screw worm infection
Starting point is 00:03:34 came to the United States from Guatemala. So maybe, just maybe, we say, how about no to people, persons, humans, coming into this country from places like Guatemala and specifically places called Guatemala, I mean, we still want those, of course. That's why we're building the sterile fly factories in Mexico. We want the avocados.
Starting point is 00:04:07 We were helping him out. But Guatemala, sorry about it. Welcome. Welcome to chewing the fat. And, you know, I was thinking about the screw worm infection. And I'm sorry, it's not an infection. I'm sorry, but the parasite chewing in. into your body.
Starting point is 00:04:49 How do they get rid of those bad boys? So they remove the larvae and wound care, obviously, because you have a wound. That's how they get in. They see the wound, and they go, I'm going to go there. I'm going to start chewing there. So they say that obviously they would use some antibiotics, duh.
Starting point is 00:05:09 But they also use insecticides. So they're going to spray you down with some bug spray. Yeah, and wound care, which means they're going to dig it out, which means they're going to dig it out. So you're going to have a big old hole in whatever body part, the infection, the parasites decide to take over. Anyway, just don't worry. It's not going to happen.
Starting point is 00:05:32 It's rare when it's in a human. And this guy came here from Guatemala, and no one else has come here from Guatemala, have they? Okay, so I was posed a question online over the weekend, and many people said that, you know, maybe you should listen to this show. Yes, that's possible. We've talked about it multiple times.
Starting point is 00:05:52 But the question was, you found a suitcase full of $750,000 in cash in $100 bills in the brush next to the highway. You can tell that it's been there for at least a year. And how would you integrate the money into your life without raising red flags? Well, first of all, I appreciate the bot and the FBI and all government agencies asking this question online. So you want people to tell you how they would do it so that you can figure out, I got it, I got it. But if something like that actually did happen, what the number one rule would be,
Starting point is 00:06:35 don't tell anyone, period, zero, nada. Then I would remove the money from the money from the suitcase and get rid of the suitcase. Okay? The money would be then now in a separate container in my home. Then, then you can start purchasing things that you purchase every day with cash instead of your debit card or credit card. So you're automatically up.
Starting point is 00:07:13 So, I mean, especially gas. I mean, you put, you know, every time you stop in the gas station, you put in a quick 20. kick quick 25 and you're off on the road again. Welcome to my world. And so you just do you pay with cash. And so that's automatically leaving more money in your bank account without really raising any red flags. It's just that's the thing. When you start, if you're going to deposit it, you do too much, raises the red flags like where all this extra money is coming from.
Starting point is 00:07:41 And you do not want that. Okay. So, and then I guess you could. but there's other things that you could invest in using cash that wouldn't raise red flags. But where you want to launder the money a little bit. We can talk about that offline. But just know the first and foremost rule, don't tell anyone. So my wife flew over the weekend and she hadn't flown in a while.
Starting point is 00:08:16 So I've got to get to that story because she made her happy and reminded her of why she doesn't like to fly. Although she made it safely. And the flight was once they were in the air and landed, it was fine. They did not kick anybody off the plane. There was no fighting. There was none of that. And I know that the other British airways just had to remove people from their flight. due to weight limit.
Starting point is 00:08:47 Yeah, we've reached our limit. And so you, you, you, you, you, you, you know what, all 20 of you are way overweight, you're going to have to get off the plane. We are sorry for the inconvenience. But what are you going to do? There's just too much weight. And so we got to remove you from the plane. Yeah, I know.
Starting point is 00:09:13 We're sorry. Look, it's not on us. It's on us. We miscalculated and we're sorry. It's a short runway. It's too hot outside. There's air pressure. It's weight.
Starting point is 00:09:26 We got to do something to reduce the weight. So you got to leave. You got to get off the plane. Okay. And we want to get to our destination as quickly as possible. So we don't want to look at you while we're getting there. So get off the plate. We're sorry.
Starting point is 00:09:42 It's on us. I know. No, man. it's not you it's not you it's me but uh you still have to you still have to leave okay yeah no not not 15 no 20 those five back there too yeah they got to go good to get off that's awesome so my wife uh flew from orlando to dfw yesterday and the flight was supposed to leave at like 9.30 a.m. Eastern time out of Orlando and uh So she was there on time, obviously, ready to go.
Starting point is 00:10:17 And then it was delayed for about 35, 40 minutes. And that's okay. You're all right. Well, the airlines know that. And they know that if it's delayed and if it's delayed more than that, they have to do it incrementally, which I thought was really smart of them. Because then it, as soon as it got close to the new time, they delayed it again for another 45 minutes to an hour.
Starting point is 00:10:43 and then as soon as it got close to the other time and they delayed it again for another hour and pretty soon instead of jumping ahead you know four hours from the original flight time you just do it incrementally
Starting point is 00:11:01 because then everybody's okay everybody gets pissed and nobody wants to be delayed but if they were just to go if you were there at 9.30 and you looked up and then it said delayed till 12 30, three hours, three and a half hours later. You'd be out pissed. You're like, what the
Starting point is 00:11:17 hell? Why am I here? What am I doing? I had to come in here early. This is just ridiculous. But you look up there and it's delayed 35 minutes. Ah, it's not bad. Okay, we're good. It's not bad. So they just do it incrementally, which I thought was pretty nice to them. It's a good move.
Starting point is 00:11:34 Good move on their part. So anyway, it's delayed for, I don't know, three and a half. It was, I think it was three and a half, four hours. and the reason that they were, and I said to my wife on a text to her probably waiting out a pilot. Yep, waiting on a pilot.
Starting point is 00:11:49 There's no, we're just waiting out a pilot. And then they realized, oh, crap, we don't have a pilot. He's in Miami. So fly him up from Miami to Orlando, so we're waiting on that. And, yeah, that's only like a 45-minute flight. If he could get on that very next flight, but he might have to wait for another flight.
Starting point is 00:12:09 You don't know when the other flight's leaving. So I don't know. maybe you, I don't know, hop him on a little private plane and get them up there? What do you think? Just a thought. So anyway, they apologize, of course. And we apologize. We apologize for this.
Starting point is 00:12:22 And so he gets there. And he gets everything up and running because it was shut down the night before sitting on the tarmac. So there was no AC. So once they put passengers on the plane, it was a little warm. And nothing was running. So he gets there. He turns, kicks everything on, everything's running.
Starting point is 00:12:39 We're good. And then, you think that you think that you. you're good, right? Eh, eh, eh. We're sorry. We are so sorry. We're here to, man, this is so unprofessional of us,
Starting point is 00:12:52 but we gotta wait until we load the luggage onto the airplane. They haven't loaded the luggage onto the airplane yet. So we are so sorry, but as soon as we get down with that, then we'll get out of here. So they had to wait,
Starting point is 00:13:04 then they waited for somebody to come and load the luggage, which I'm sure, you know, you'd think it was sitting there all that time, they could have loaded the luggage, but they probably think, rather than the flight's not going anywhere, right? So why load the luggage
Starting point is 00:13:17 wouldn't you have to just have to take it off again? I mean, that makes sense from the, if I'm the luggage loader, I don't want to load a plane that's good that I'm going to have to unload two hours later because it's not going anywhere. They don't have a pilot yet? No, we're not loading that thing yet.
Starting point is 00:13:31 So I understand that. Frustrating as it is, I get it. So then, you know, they finally show up and they load the plane and stuff, and then it looks like, it looks like we're good to go. We're closing up to half. hatch. We loaded the luggage on for everything good to go. I'm so sorry. This is so
Starting point is 00:13:48 unprofessional of us, but we're waiting for somebody to unhook us here at the gate and give us a push out into the tarmac. And I won't have anybody around right now. So we're just waiting on somebody to come and unhook the walkway and push us back out into the tarmac. So we're sorry. We're sorry, we're so unprofessional loss, but, uh, well, what are you going to do? And so there they sat. Uh, until finally, oh, here comes the guy. Yeah, they're good.
Starting point is 00:14:20 Now the flight itself goes fine. And, uh, you know, up and down, uh, out of Orlando to DFW, no problem. But the whole process, what a nightmare. I will say this, though. Um, I don't know that my wife would have appreciated it, but, uh, I would have. Uh, there was an elastic. Airlines plane that was
Starting point is 00:14:44 delayed and Dave Caz and the summer horns jazz band was on the plane and since it was delayed they all
Starting point is 00:14:54 and those guys are not putting their horns underneath the plane no they are not letting Billy Bob throw their horns underneath the plane
Starting point is 00:15:05 that's not happening so obviously with them on the plane and they gave an impromptu concert on the plane while it was delayed there on the tarmac. I would have maybe appreciated it.
Starting point is 00:15:18 I don't know. My wife would have been, oh, my gosh, let's go. It was better than nothing. Yeah, I mean, that's better than just sitting there with your thumb up your nose. All right, the luggage is on, and you guys want to wrap this jam session up, put those horns up. Let's go.
Starting point is 00:15:53 We're going to back it away from the gate here. Thank you to Dave Coz and his band for performing a voice for the delay. We're so sorry. We're so sorry. But you're going to have to close those horns up and put them away and get them up above and sit down and make sure your seatbelt is on, okay? Boarding for flight 246 to Toronto is delayed 50 minutes. Ugh, what?

Starting point is 00:17:56 There's this one allergy medication that is prevalent in my house. And I know that if I take one in the beginning of the week, maybe on the weekend, then I could take another one maybe in the middle of the week, and it works pretty good. It just gets rid of all the mung that's in the center of my face, right? But if I take more than one,
Starting point is 00:18:17 if I get all clogged up, and this room that we broadcast from here at the Blaze Radio Network, and we do Pat Grant leased in every day, this room has some kind of, I don't know, as best as glue something in the walls and it really screws up your mung. And so that's what I figured it was. And then, you know, I wake up Saturday and...
Starting point is 00:18:40 I don't want to talk to anybody. I just can't... So, I mean, I've got to really push through to make my voice work. It does because it likes me. But I don't know what's going on. I got some kind of mung. So, yeah.
Starting point is 00:18:55 It might be long COVID. You know, who knows? It might be right. I don't have an open wound, so I don't think I have to concern myself with the screw worm infection, but you just darn near never know, do you? So Burning Man started this weekend.
Starting point is 00:19:16 Black Rock Desert is there, baby, outside of Reno, Nevada, about 100 miles north. Now, I will say I'm always fascinated by Burning Man. always wanted to go never did uh very sad but of course you know at the end after the end of their uh you know whatever days how many ever days they're out there i don't know nine or ten days or whatever they're out there uh they burn the man that's the whole point they burn this giant wooden structure of the burning man that's where it came from but they have a bunch of other wooden structures that these artists make out there at black rock city that they burn throughout the week and at the end of the at the end of burning
Starting point is 00:19:50 it's awesome anyway um and they have i mean It started back in 1986. And then it grew into this huge thing. And, I mean, they've got this, it becomes its own city out there. And they've got it gritted out. And, you know, it's attendees calling themselves burners. That's pretty genius, huh? And anyway, they have 10 community principles, including radical inclusion, self-reliance, and decommodification.
Starting point is 00:20:23 Yeah, you want to always do that. You want to be, it's one of my principles as well. Decommodification. So you have immediacy, participation, leaving no trace, civic responsibility, communal effort, radical self-expression, radical self-reliance.
Starting point is 00:20:59 We also have decommodification, gifting, that's good. I feel that. And radical inclusion. You know what I'm saying? Yeah, I mean, that's Burning Man. That is, that is Burning Man.
Starting point is 00:21:18 And you just go around and, you know, you hope that you're following the principles that maybe you hallucinate a little, maybe you don't. Maybe you take something that, you know, you don't want nothing to do but business. So you're going camp to camp to camp, looking for a little Burning Man business. Yeah, only you're hearing that in your head
Starting point is 00:21:40 that's not really playing, okay? That's what you're hearing as you're walking around Burning Man. Hey. Ain't mind if I sit down by the fire here a little bit? No, come on. Wow, you guys don't smell as bad as the last place I was at. Okay. You're pretty hot.
Starting point is 00:22:00 Yeah. Is that your tent there? We go in there? Okay. All right. Cool. So, that's Burning Man in a nutshell. Now, the Hoytie Toits kind of took it over.
Starting point is 00:22:12 You know, they brought out the RVs and, you know, it kind of became a thing that wasn't really supposed to be what it was about, but that's what it's about. And so they claim here that they, if you have to buy tickets to go, and they claim, I guess, $70,000 this year, we'll see. But participants, they pay on a sliding scale. Okay Between 550 and $3,000 a ticket
Starting point is 00:22:41 So it didn't sell out last year And it didn't sell out this year They claim that they're operating at a loss now I mean That means that that's not going to be around longer Or if they're operating at a loss That's not going to happen But this year's theme is
Starting point is 00:22:57 You know what they're You know what they're calling it man Tomorrow today is uh I mean I know I know it was a mind explosion
Starting point is 00:23:24 that's what it was you got any more of that all right let's go to the break room I need I need something have fun have fun at Burning Man I've talked to one of the burners here on this show before he's awesome he might be there again
Starting point is 00:23:40 maybe I'll reach out and see because remember he was we were worried about getting we were worried about him getting a burner lung and they got the problem don't even start with me but there's you know there may be
Starting point is 00:23:52 there may be some things passed around out there that you know you don't want so I know and then it was it the last year the year before it rained so hard they all got stuck in the mud couldn't get out of there holy cow that would have been
Starting point is 00:24:09 that would have happened if I went that's the year that's the year that's the year I would have gone. It was the year that it just rains and it becomes mud. And then you're stuck. You can't get out. And your vehicle is, if you tried to get out and not save your vehicle up on some kind of wood, now it's going to sink.
Starting point is 00:24:26 And once it dries out, you're stuck in the desert. That's it. Yep. Got stuck there Burning Man. 2000. Back at Ot 5 got stuck there. I mean, that's what's happening. There was due to feces thrown all over the walls, the floor, the ceiling, the ceiling in a
Starting point is 00:24:42 Stunk so bad. See, that probably is true. But really, under the principles, leaving no trace, is supposed to be one of the principles. Not today, though. Not today. It's where, that's how bad it was. Ah, let's go to the break room. I need something cold to drink desperately.
Starting point is 00:25:12 I guess get it in while you can. You can quote me on that, by the way. Just always get it in while you can. Netflix had the big hit at the theaters this weekend. K-pop, Demon Hunter's Sing-A-Long, number one at the box office. It's been on Netflix for, I don't know, a few weeks now. But they, I mean, holy cow, 18 million, number one movie at the theaters, 1700 theaters, congratulations.
Starting point is 00:25:38 I mean, it's K-pop, right? But still, that's kind of like Taylor Swift. Okay, you're number one, great. Now, weapons is number two still while hanging in there. How long? This is the third week for weapons. And I know it's number two, but really it's number one. Let's, no, I'm not giving it to K-pop.
Starting point is 00:25:58 I'm sorry. I know I should, but I'm not. That's what it says on the list, Jeff. They've made the most money, so they're number one. Yeah, I know. Okay. Congratulations. You know, they're number, they're number one.
Starting point is 00:26:12 But really, weapons was number one at number two. And then Freakier Fridays was number three. The Fantastic Four, while they're at week five. Have they made, let's see, 257 domestic, 475 million global. That's probably pretty good for them. The bad guys, too. Okay. They're still hanging in there at five.
Starting point is 00:26:40 This is their fourth week. All right. They've only made $149 million, though. Okay. Nobody two, week two. I know I want to see this. Nobody two. They've only made $28 million.
Starting point is 00:26:52 Holy cow. It'll be on my streaming device very, very soon. It must be terrible, though. That's what I was afraid of, that it was going to be too vacationing and not nobody enough. If you watch the first one, the first one was really Mr. Nobody.
Starting point is 00:27:10 And it was really good, you know, for what it was. But the second one, all the promotions looked like it was going to be too vacationy and not nobody enough. That's my review. It was too vacationy, not nobody E, E, E, E, E, enough. Then, now, Superman, hanging in there, Superman, man. 3.4 million number seven.
Starting point is 00:27:35 They have made 604 global. Wow. Yeah, they're the first comic book movie to cross 600 million. best Superman movie to date. Awesome. A lot of people are pissed. I have not seen it. My family went to see it and loved it
Starting point is 00:27:54 because a lot of people are pissed that, you know, Superman, am I going to just say some spoilers here? Okay. It's been out for seven weeks. I got it. Seven weeks is long enough. So Superman gets his butt kicked a lot during the movie. And, you know, I see.
Starting point is 00:28:12 I said that to my son, well, people are pissed because the Superman gets his butt kicked for the whole time. Well, they must not read the comics, and they don't understand that he was fighting against another, another Kryptonian, another Superman from his planet. And so he does have weaknesses, and
Starting point is 00:28:28 he started going down the list. I'm like, okay, dude, calm down, I got it, okay? Honey Don't was on number eight. The Naked Gun, wow, naked gun. This is their fourth week, 86 million. Ooh. and Jurassic Park hanging in there at the top 10.
Starting point is 00:28:44 They're almost at a billion. World Rebirth. 844 million global. Good for them. Yeah, I do want to see that. And I'm really mad at myself that I have not seen that yet. So I apologize to you. On behalf of me and the world that I have not seen
Starting point is 00:29:01 Jurassic World Rebirth yet. Okay. I'm sorry. And I didn't make it in the movies this weekend again. But it was college football week zero. You know, I did Saturday morning live, of course, you know, 9 a.m. Central on my ex-account with Brad Stagg, Saturday morning live. Had fun. Another, you know, productive show.
Starting point is 00:29:22 We have fun. Bring you entertainment. You're welcome. You should, you know, catch us on Saturday morning at 9 a.m. Central. And don't worry about anybody, any place else that Brad puts it up at. And I just go to my ex-account at Jeffrey JFR. So, but there's college football week zero. So I watched the Iowa State and Kansas State game.
Starting point is 00:29:42 And that was the first game up there was playing in Dublin. That was a good game. Came down to the wire. Iowa State kicks a field goal. Win's 24, 21. It was awesome. Then I kind of went away. And I watched a, what did I watch?
Starting point is 00:29:56 I watched, oh yeah, I watched the Chief of War because that drops on Friday. So I had time there to catch Chief of War. Because I started watching it on Sunday because it drops on Friday, but I don't have time Sundays now. So anyway, it's just, don't look at me. I don't have to explain my schedule to you, okay? So I watched it on Saturday, but I should have been watching the Idaho State UNLV game because that game came down to the wire
Starting point is 00:30:22 and UNLV beat Idaho State 38 to 31. It was a high scoring, big game. I should have watched that game. So then I ended up watching the Stanford Hawaii game, which was the late game. And that game came down to the wire too. It was awesome. It was in Hawaii, yeah.
Starting point is 00:30:37 And Stanford was there. It looked like Stanford was going to win. They were coming back. They were driving back. and nope, turnover, and then Hawaii gets his ball back with very little time left, and they kick a field goal and win the game. It was awesome.
Starting point is 00:30:48 It was awesome. So week zero was, you know, it was fun. But now, now we get to week one. And this weekend is the real deal, baby. It is the real deal. Thursday night, Missouri plays. I think Nebraska plays Thursday night too. And then Pat Gray's BYU plays on Saturday.
Starting point is 00:31:09 But the big game, of course, is week one, noon kickoff, Texas, taking on the Ohio State Buckeyes, the reigning national champs, in the U, in Columbus. Ah, man, it would be fun to be there. That place is going to be rocking. And it'll be fun.
Starting point is 00:31:30 It'll be fun. And I really don't have a horse in the race. I honestly myself, I don't care who wins. I was raised to hate Ohio State. But I really don't care. And I'm good with Ohio State beating Texas. I'm good with Texas beating Ohio State. I just want a really good game.
Starting point is 00:31:52 I think my raising the bloodline in me was still a little bit there. So I kind of want, you know, I don't want Ohio State to win. But they're the reigning national champions. So you kind of got to go with them. Whoever loses can come back and, I mean, the playoff system will work and they can end up winning the championship. No problem even if they lost this game. But the loser will have a mighty hill to climb because the first game, all eyes are on you and you lose. Holy cow.
Starting point is 00:32:32 No matter what you say, man, no matter what you say, it's a long season. Plus, I mean, Ohio State's got a new quarterback. Texas has got Arch Manning. The world is expecting Arch Manning to come in and have the mantle of the mannings. And, you know, he's a Heisman candidate. He's going to throw for 8 billion yards. And he's the guy. And he's a tough one.
Starting point is 00:32:54 And if he comes in and loses, whew! I mean, even if he has a good game, you know, they can blame it on somebody else. Doesn't matter. It was his team that he led to a loss.

Starting point is 00:40:21 Seriously, just you and me. All right. I love the green sex toy bit throwing on the court at the WNBA. Now they've thrown it onto an NFL field. And I saw them throwing onto a PGA tour yesterday as well. Okay. So I love, I don't understand the bit.
Starting point is 00:40:45 We've talked about that. I wish I knew what the bit meant, but they keep throwing these green sex toys into sporting events. I don't know what it means. But it's got to stop, okay? It's just between you and me. Stop. Okay. It was funny.
Starting point is 00:41:01 No, it wasn't, Jeff. Somebody could have gotten hurt, but no one did. And so, you know, they, I just, I just, I just, don't understand. I don't understand the bit. And it's not funny anymore. Somebody's going to get hurt. And they said that
Starting point is 00:41:18 they caught the two players that threw it onto the field of the Titans game. They've already identified them. And, you know, I mean, the NFL knows who's going into their stadiums and where you're sitting. They have facial technology. They have tickets. They know who's there.
Starting point is 00:41:34 Okay. It's all on camera. You kidding me? You don't, I mean, those NFL, the games themselves are photographed from every angle, videos, still shots, all of it. And so is everything around it. It's just you're not getting away with it. And legitimately, like, I don't, I mean, they're wearing helmets and pads and stuff. I get that.
Starting point is 00:41:59 But, you know, you don't want somebody to trip on it when they're not expecting it on the field. And that's where the problem comes with the WNBA. But it does make one thing. that since it started with the WNBA and now it's moved on to other sports, that it might not be all, I don't know, I just, I don't know, I don't understand the bit. I really don't.
Starting point is 00:42:18 I just want to know the bit. Just tell me the bit. Somebody who's in charge of the green sex toy throwing on to professional sporting events, call me, email me chewing the fat at the blaze.com. Let me know what the bid is so that I can not only laugh at the sex. toy being thrown onto the field, the court, the golf course, I can know what it means,
Starting point is 00:42:44 what it stands for. Okay? Thank you. That'd be nice. Speaking of golf, I see where golfer Ben Griffin, and you don't have to know who he is, but he came up with a great excuse now. So apparently during this PGA event, you know, last weekend, he got the shakes real bad. and they blamed it on a creatine overdose.
Starting point is 00:43:14 Okay, sure. You got it, Ben. That's what happened. All right, yeah, you got the shakes, and it was creatine overdose. Okay, all right, it wasn't booze. It wasn't any other drug that you were doing too much of or too little of? No, it was a creatine overdose.
Starting point is 00:43:37 I hope everything is okay for you, Ben. You got it. No problem. I will say it's a pretty good excuse. I like it. I like it a lot. All right, I got to get out of here. I got to rest of my voice.
Starting point is 00:43:49 Thank you for hanging with me today. I appreciate it. And I apologize for the sounding of my voice, but it is what it is. Why don't you just apologize every day? Okay, I will. No problem. Sorry.
Starting point is 00:43:59 All right, so here's a joke of the day. Sent to Chewing the Fat at the Blaze.com. From Mead Joe Green here. and me, Joe Green. I mean, thank you for listening to the program. I'm a fan, always have been, number 75, Pittsburgh Steelers, Steel Curtin, baby, vaunted defense. I don't think this is him, though, because he says in his email, I'm still radioactive, I'm still at the radioactive shrimp headquarters Walmart.
Starting point is 00:44:27 So I feel like Joe Green, the mean Joe Green, wouldn't be there. But you never know. You never know. And it says working away on the graveyard shift. Sorry. The real Joe Green, the mean Joe Green is not working the graveyard shift at Walmart. But you never know. But mean Joe Green, this mean Joe Green,
Starting point is 00:44:50 continues with I've got a great and simple joke. But this is the email. And no offense meant, but just to touch on your pronunciation of the word C.C. Cicium, which I pronounced. And remember, that's the, that's the radioactive material that they found with the shrimp that they recalled. Cicium. You're saying it completely wrong.
Starting point is 00:45:22 He says it's pronounced Cisium. I don't know what my girl says, though. Seism. Yeah, he's, apparently he's right. Well, I'm sorry, baby. What was that? Seism. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:45:35 So I apologize. I was saying the word wrong. Seism. I got it, okay. I got it. I got it. Okay. So I appreciate it.
Starting point is 00:45:47 Thank you very much. Here's this joke. What's brown and sticky? I don't know, Jeff. What's brown and sticky? A stick. You know, because it's, it's a stick
