And now, chewing the fat with Jeff Fisher.
If your significant other were to have been, oh, I don't know, abducted by aliens,
would you go after them?
Would you find a way to go after your significant other if they were abducted by aliens?
Now, of course, this is promoing, you know, the new movie.
the Lumina movie, which follows four friends as they embark on a mission to help one of their own
find their significant other who's been unexpectedly abducted by aliens. Do you expect to be abducted
by aliens? I guess you do if you're in search of. And what they discover along the way is beyond
anything they could have ever imagined, Lumina. I believe it opens July 12th. But the question was
asked, would you save your loved one from being?
abducted by aliens.
Would you risk your life
saving a loved one
from being abducted by aliens?
57%
were willing to take the leap.
The other 43%
I need to think about it.
I would ask, are they really a loved one?
If you have to think about it.
At least
At least 57% said, yeah, absolutely.
We have to take the leap and go find them.
The other 42%, eh, you know, I'd have to think about it for a minute or two.
If you have to think about it, you're not doing it.
Welcome.
Welcome to chewing the fat.
So are you ready to give up your smartphone yet?
Your cell phone?
I don't know.
That's a tough one.
I know.
I was trying to think the other day, you know, what life was,
Somebody sent me a picture of me 100 years ago,
and it got me thinking that, wow, back then there were no,
there was no cell phone devices that you were carrying with you at all times.
And then I see where Pennsylvania has become the first day to spearhead a program for students
to have their smartphones locked away during the school day.
I don't know that that's such a bad idea.
according to the studies, the smartphones present a big distraction for students when it comes to learning in school.
And the smartphones also play a role in students' mental health.
So the Pennsylvania Senate Education Committee has agreed for a pilot program that's going to provide certain schools throughout the state with lockable bags that will hold students' smartphones until the end of the school day.
And the grant program would also give education employees locks to store smartphones.
in as well. Yeah, they should be doing it as well.
Additionally, the proposed legislation would implement a performance review of the smartphone
storage plan, monitoring and tracking academic achievement and students' mental health
over the two years to see how effective the program is.
Interesting.
And then I see a story that talks about how people are dumping their smartphone to go to
the dumb phones that you only call and text to a little.
avoid, you know, having amounting, wasting time with your smartphone.
So apparently, they've sold 2.8 million in the U.S. last year, and people proclaiming they
feel calmer and more present in their ordinary lives. One woman talked about how she made the
switch after realizing she spent the entire summer on her smartphone, saying she barely
remembered the time she even forgot where she walked her dog. I guess that's the
Smart phones fault.
Okay, so she switched to a dumb phone,
and so more and more people just want a phone
that they can call and text from for, you know,
emergencies or to get in touch with someone.
I read a story about Woody Harrelson, the actor,
who explained why he doesn't even carry a cell phone.
Now, some people, and I'm sure Woody is in this field from time to time,
with his entourage, his due people,
where they carry the phones so he can pretend,
like he doesn't have a cell phone.
I'm aware of people like that.
However, Woody said that he just got tired of having the, what was his line?
I don't like the appendage on my appendage.
I like to be in touch with people in a way, but I don't like the appendage on my appendage.
So he said it wasn't really true.
He did have a complicated relationship with the technology after observing certain habits.
I just don't like to have, you know, to be readily available to any human being at any time.
So now he said what he does is he sets a limit on his phone.
So he doesn't, for the last three and a half years, he uses it for a couple hours a day.
That's it.
Two hours.
And he said, I've already, when I hit my limit, I just, I just, I had enough.
I've got to put it away.
And he said, you know how it goes?
You hit your limit, and then you just keep going and going.
And he doesn't like that, so he doesn't do that now.
He sets the limit and boom.
And one of the people interviewing Woody said that it was her kids who had pointed out to her
how excessive her phone usage was.
And, I mean, we all have that, right?
I mean, when you're using your phone and a family member comes up and starts talking to you,
so you look up from your phone.
and you talk to them, or at least you should.
And you shouldn't say, hold on, I've got to finish what I'm doing on my phone.
But that's rare in today's world, right?
I mean, you're just, if you're writing a text or you're posting something on social media,
you feel like that has to be done first before the connection with the human being that's right in front of you.
I am very
very cognizant of when someone
is talking to me and I put down the phone
so that I don't look at it while I'm talking to them.
I don't know that that really helps.
In today's world, man,
giving up the phone, that's my computer.
I do my work on that phone.
So much of my work is done from the phone
and it's be very difficult for me to give it up.
I could.
I could and go back to just using a, you know, a desktop computer and a laptop.
But now I have the availability not to use the desktop or the laptop I can use my phone,
which, you know, I've found to be so much better because it's more comfortable and such a device.
It's right there.
And it can do everything for me.
It's right there.
It's my friend.
So, I mean, I, I, I.
I don't know, you know, what works for you, works for you, no question.
I don't know that I'm quite ready to give up the smartphone for the dumb phone,
but I sure, I would, I don't mind the idea of the kids giving it up during school.
And I know you're going to have the argument.
It's safety.
What if something bad happens?
Well, we've seen that if something bad happens,
I don't necessarily think the smartphone is, you know, has saved.
I don't know.
I don't know.
You can make the argument either way.
It'd be interesting to see what happens in this study, this pilot program in Pennsylvania.
They're probably not going to be the first to try this because there's so many distractions with the smartphones that when you're, you know, in an education surrounding, educational surrounding,
You don't want those distractions.
And I would hope that the teachers do it as well.
Because while the kids are working on a project,
I'm sure in today's world the teachers are looking at their phone
when you're setting a bad example for those children.
So give it up.
Just go back to the dumb phone, okay?
No, I'm just going to put it in the drawer here
and not look at it for a while, okay?
Okay, good luck.

So the lawsuit in Vermont has been settled. What was that lawsuit? Well, there was a lawsuit filed by the ACLU of Vermont on behalf of Gregory Bombard of St. Albans. It says Bombard's First Amendment rights were violated after an unnecessary traffic stop and retaliatory arrest in 2018. This has been going on for six years. Trooper Jay Riggins stopped Bombard's vehicle.
St. Albans on February 9th of 2018 because he believed Bombard had shown him the middle finger.
So the cop was pissed.
Now, Bombard denied making the gesture, but was detained for several minutes for questioning.
After the initial stop, Bombard did curse and give him the middle finger as he drove away.
There, I did it this time, you could?
When that Riggins pulled him over again and arrested him on a charge of disorderly conduct.
ordered the towing of his car.
He was jailed for an hour and cited to criminal court.
Wow.
So after a year, that case was dismissed.
So they held it over his head for a year.
So the ACLU argued that using the middle finger to protest the police officers' actions
is free expression protected by the First Amendment and the U.S. Constitution
and Article 13 of the Vermont Constitution.
So under the settlement, he gets $100,000 on the ACLU gets $70.
$25,000.
Okay.
All right.
And so,
while our client is pleased with this outcome,
this incident should never have happened in the first place.
Police need to respect everyone's
First Amendment rights, even for things they
consider offensive or insulting.
And the Vermont police
had a comment, oh wait, no, no, they
didn't. They didn't even admit to any
wrongdoing as part of the settlement.
So we just hope that they train
their police officers better
to avoid silencing
criticism or making baseless car stops.
The cop was just pissed at the guy.
You gave you the finger, fine.
What do you do?
I'll pull you over.
And nothing happened.
He just pulled him over and was just a chip on his shoulder, state trooper.
And then he got pissed because when he drove away, fine, it gave you the finger again.
That's outstanding.
I mean, not really, but come on now.
The cop, calm down.
So they paid the, you know, the guy gets $100,000.
And that seems for, I mean, it's been six years.
This has been going on.
100,000 seems to be an awful small amount to cover for that.
But, okay, you know, if you say so.
I mean, I'm all for Back to Blue today.
You know, I went to see Horizon this past weekend,
and I know many of you commented on my ex post
where I talked about how I was all for the Roanoke, Texas Police,
and Fire Department.
And many of you reached out concerned that something terrible had happened.
And I really appreciate it.
Thank you.
Those of you that were following me on,
on X at Jeffrey JFR, I appreciate it very much.
Thank you.
But all it was was that I had locked my keys in the car at the movie theater.
And I went to see Horizon.
We'll talk about that in a little bit.
But as I'm closing the door, no!
And the door closes and my keys are on the console right there.
And, you know, there they are.
And I have my wallet.
I've got everything I need except my car.
keys. So I just went in and watched the movie, knowing that I'm going to have to take care of it,
you know, once the movie is over. And I've got to call my insurance company because the roadside
that part of our insurance I have, they send someone out and, you know, unlock your car door
and get your keys. And it's just a pain because you have to call the insurance company,
I got the number. I have to call the company to get it. And the company has to call you. And it's
just, you know, it happens, and I'm very happy that I have that under my insurance policy,
but it's just, you know, more of a pain.
I thought I was going to have to sit outside in front of the movie theaters forever.
And so, and I don't have my insurance card or my insurance number.
So I've got to call my wife so that she can send me a copy, a digital copy of our insurance
card, so I can call them and give them the right number and have everything ready.
And, of course, my wife doesn't answer the phone when I call her.
why would my wife answer the phone when I call her?
That would be silly.
Why would someone who has the phone with her all the time not answer the phone?
Anyway, and I'm walking out of the theater, and I'm there with Chris Cruz,
and Chris says, well, don't you just ask that police officer over there?
So there's a Rowanoke, Texas police officer parked in front of the movie theater.
I don't know if he's on duty or if his duty is, you know, if he's off duty working for the theater,
but he's parked out in front of the theater.
And I'm like, you know what?
That's a good idea.
They usually don't.
I've had this happen before.
I know it's a big surprise.
I've locked my keys in my car before.
And in fact, this very vehicle.
And so, but I walk on,
I'm going to ask anyway, why not, right?
I'm waiting for my wife to call me back
or text me back with the insurance,
which she did, by the way.
As I was talking to the police officer,
it was not that,
wasn't that long of a way.
I asked the police officer,
hey, if you got a little Jimmy
that you can unlock my car door with,
I locked my keys in the car.
And he's like, no, no, I don't.
He said, but, you know, our fire department provides that server,
helps people do that.
Why don't you call the front desk and see if they'll send someone out?
I don't know if they have that service available after 6 o'clock,
because it was like 630, 6.45 at night.
And I was like, okay, that's great.
What's the number?
So then he has to, you know, reach into his pocket and get his cell phone out.
And that gives me the number, and I call it.
And the lady answers.
And I told her my predicament.
and she says, oh, absolutely, no problem.
I've already has the fire department on the way.
We provide that service for you.
And off we go.
It wasn't five minutes.
They're pulling into the parking lot.
I wave them down.
I'm talking to him as we're walking over to my car.
The guy is, I said, yeah, I locked him in the car.
I went to see the movie.
Or would you go see?
And I talked to him about Horizon a little bit.
And by that time, my car door is unlocked, and I have my keys.
And the fire department is off, and I'm in my car driving home.
It was awesome.
And I drove past the police officer again and thanked him again.
I mean, it was fantastic.
And that's why I liked Roanoke, Texas police and fire department on Friday night because they, you know, did a nice thing for me.
Now, if the police officer would have said, no, I don't have any way to help you out.
And then I rolled up his car window.
I would have been pissed.
And then I might have actually posted about that as well.
But I didn't.
So, you know, it was nice of them.
I live in Roanoke, Texas.
Oh, my gosh.
I didn't even know you were still in the building.
Yeah, is that why?
That's why.
Because the fire department provides that service.
Do you have a beat cop walking your beat?
No, I do not.
I do.
I have a, there's a police officer.
I don't know if he's, if he lives in my neighborhood, or if he's there, if there's a family member or if he has a girlfriend of the neighborhood.
Oh, yeah, careful.
He does stop by our neighborhood in the afternoons.
Oh, is it like the afternoon delight?
I just, I don't know that.
I just know I see his car parked there.
The afternoon.
Yes.
I mean, why not?
If you're a police officer, and there's one that, who I found out, who, I can't tell
that story, never mind.
There is a police officer that parks in the big church parking lot by my house.
Okay.
See, I remember that charge.
Yeah.
And the heritage trace.
And anyway, he sits in that parking lot.
I found out who that is, actually, the overnight police officer.
And you found out because.
Al, just know that I found out.
out late night delight just know that I found out yeah not with me for sure I will never
accuse you not with me of a late night dare you oh but hey for someone the backs of blue they
really helped you out yes they did yes they did fantastic and uh it was it was very kind and uh
the city did it great I mean if I call Fort Worth there's no way there Fort Worth fire department
is providing that service there's too many people no way Dallas this is not going to happen
like I was selling Keith today I was like he thinks
is going to turn blue.
It's no way.
You can't fit the California people
are not moving to Roanoke.
I'm going to tell you that.
They're buying Pat's house.
Right.
And Pat does not live in Roanoke.
No, he does not.
And they're moving into my neighborhood.
They're buying up all the houses
that go up for sale in my neighborhood.
Because believe me, they're there.
Which is like, what, a quarter price of California?
Oh, yeah.
Oh, yeah.
They move into my neighborhood and it's like, well, that's not a bad price.
Oh, 300,000?
Oh, yeah.
300.
Oh, I'm sorry.
$200,000?
What kind of trailer park do you think I live in?
All right, let's go to the break room.
I need something called to drink desperately.
All right, be sure to follow me on my social media accounts.
I already mentioned my ex account at Jeffrey JFR.
Facebook and Instagram is Jeff Fisher Radio.
You can follow me on YouTube, Chewing the Fat with Jeff Fisher.
You can always email the show, chewing.
the fat at the blaze.com, you can order a cameo from me at any time, and you can follow me on
Cameo as well at Jeffey JFR. Now, if you order a cameo, that, of course, is not free. But
you just let me know what you need, and then I record the video, and then everybody's happy,
and that's the way the cameo app works at Jeffey JFR on Cameo. So, as I said, I went to
Sea Horizon, and I really, I enjoyed it. I enjoyed it.
I just feel like it was too much groundwork late.
I wanted to see a little bit more.
And I don't know what I wanted to see.
The second one comes out in August.
I'll definitely go and see it.
You know, I love the Kevin Costner Westerns.
I love the Yellowstones.
I love the Taylor Sheridan's 1883.
This started out, I think, in 1863.
So we had that and we moved along.
And, you know, it's Horizon.
We're on our way to finding Horizon.
And it didn't do well at the box office,
which was a little surprising to me.
I thought it would do better.
I mean, it came in third place at the box office.
Third place, Inside Out, number one,
with 57.4 million domestically.
And obviously, it reached everything.
That's the big news about Inside Out.
It became over a billion dollars.
It's the fastest animated film to cross.
a billion dollar mark.
And I just 19 days.
And the record holder, of course, was
Frozen 2. So I beat Frozen 2.
Okay, well, congratulations.
And then a quiet
place, the quiet
place, day one, came in
second place at 53
million
dollars. Wow.
I mean, that's pretty freaking
good. And then number
three,
Don't, don't, do.
Horizon, an American saga.
chapter one is it saga or saga an american saga chapter one so and you know but it only did
11 million 11 million domestic wow uh i don't know i know that costner invested uh 38 million into the
hundred million project um i think he's using some of his own money paying for the marketing
so and the sequel's already been shot.
All right.
Number two is coming.
The third installment is currently in production,
but they're talking about now,
oh boy, this is disappointing,
so raises concern about the franchise.
I don't think so.
I think Kevin's going to do it anyway.
No problem.
This is his deal.
He'll continue it on.
He wants to continue.
He talked about his movies breathing and making a point,
so he's going to want to end it,
and he's going to want to wrap it up.
He's not going to stop.
I'm sorry, he's just not going to do it.
And I think once you get into streaming and digital sales,
it will really help with Horizon.
And I'm not sure how many theaters and when this goes around the world.
How many theaters did it have?
It says that it had 3,000 theaters, domestically $11 million.
So I don't know about international.
And we'll see.
I just feel like it'll do better in the long run.
I'm working for Kevin Costner now.
And then it was number four was Bad Boys, Ride or Die.
They got $10.3 million.
While Bad Boys Ride or Die, got $10.3 million.
That surpasses $300 million globally.
The bike riders, I do want to see that, actually.
The indie film dropped 66% from opening weekend.
That got $3.3 million.
The Garfield movie, well, okay.
That's got $90 million.
We'll see it.
I don't know that that movie is doing as well as they wanted.
Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes.
Hello.
They raked in another million.
And so they've got 168 million domestic.
Kind of kindness.
If falls 51%,
but they've got 110 million domestic already.
And Thelma, not sure I know what Thelma is.
That made $1.32 million,
bringing the domestic total to $5.1 million.
We'll get back to finding out what the hell phelma is.
You hear that sound.
We have breaking news here on chewing the fat.
And we have our breaking news.
Man on the street reporter Chris Cruz reporting.
Chris, where are you breaking news from?
I am right here in front of the Supreme Court.
Oh, they have decided.
We have decided.
I have 119 pages for the Trump versus United States.
States. Going to jail. We're shipping them off to jail. Have a nice day.
In a decision, 6-3.
Oh, boy. The down party line.
President Biden does have immunity.
Wow.
So.
You mean President Trump has immunity?
Sorry.
Not President Biden.
Sorry.
Well, here's the thing.
If it applies to Trump and applies to Biden.
Yes, it does.
Yes, it does. Yes, it does.
Yes, it does.
That Donald Trump has presumptive.
immunity for official acts.
Duh.
No immunity for unofficial acts, which, duh.
That makes sense.
Yes, it does.
I believe Thomas, right?
Let me double check.
It's on page, like I said, 119 pages.
Okay.
So we have, I believe, Sotomayor descending, Jackson descending,
and Barrett concurring.
Yeah, okay.
Yeah, the down party lines.
Yeah, went down the par line.
Yes, yes. But 119 pages. It's going to take me a minute to read all of them. But I will read
the Held, which is right and from page one. Okay. Under Constitution, Structure of Separation
Powers, the nature of the presidential power entitles a former president to absolute
immunity for criminal prosecution from actions within his conclusive and preclusive constitution
authority. And he is entitled to at least presumptive immunity from prosecution for all his
official acts. There is
no immunity for unofficial
acts. Okay. The case
is the first criminal prosecution.
Well, they're all official, that's his point.
Exactly. This case
is the first criminal prosecution in our nation's
history of a former president for taking action
during his presidency, determining whether
and under
what circumstances such a prosecution
may proceed requires careful accession
of the scope of the presidential powers under the
Constitution. I can just make out some
reporters behind you there in the Supreme
court in there saying that
this entitles the president to
some immunity. Well, yeah.
Well, yes. If he's not the president
that he's not entitled to it.
Duh. So if he has the
office. Can you tell him to pipe down, by the way?
Hey, can you shut up? We're doing a live shot.
It's breaking news here. We're doing the fat. Sorry for that.
It's fine. It's the Fox News?
Yes. Yeah. They like to talk
very loudly. Man. Anyways, so
like we all said, if the president's in office,
he has immunity. Thank you.
If he's not in office, he doesn't
have immunity because he's a civilian.
Thank you.
I appreciate you standing there in front of the Supreme Court.
It's very hot out here.
Can I go back to Dallas?
Yeah, yeah.
You know what?
No.
It's hotter in Dallas.
I believe it's 90 degrees already and it's like 947.
Yes, it is.
So, thank you for reporting Chris Cruz, our man on the street.
Today in front of the Supreme Court in Washington, D.C., as the Supreme Court has given Donald
Trump some.
immunity. And now back to the movie Thelma. Apparently Thelma is a 93-year-old woman who tries to
recover her savings from a phone scammer. Man, who doesn't want to see that movie.

Who died today?
Who died today?
Well, we have Martin Mull
who died at the age of 80,
rest in peace.
Martin Mull,
he was Mr.
1970s guest stars,
Roseanne,
an arrested development.
He was a cult, classic hero.
He died after a long illness,
according to his daughter.
He died at,
home and it was a fight against a long illness.
That's a quote from the daughter.
You know, he was in Fernwood Tonight,
and he did the mockumentary on Cinemax and Mary Hartman.
I mean, Martin was one of those characters that was fun to watch.
And he'll be missed.
He'll be missed.
Remember him and Mr. Mom and, you know, Clue,
the history of white people in America, really, really funny.
Just very sad.
Martin Mull, dead at the age of 80.
Now, a couple of big stories that are being sent to me
on DMing me through X
and emailing the fat at the blaze.com
and messaging me on Instagram.
Is this you?
Do you know where this is?
And so I just want to say the answer to your question is yes.
the Chick-fil-A restaurant where two people were shot in Irving, Texas, or Los Kalinas, Texas,
by Ovid Bernardo Mendoza Argoete, 37.
He's an illegal alien from El Salvador,
and he shot two victims, murdered the two victims,
at this restaurant in Los Kalinas.
Apparently, his wife worked at the restaurant,
as did the two victims,
one of whom was identified as 49-year-old Patricia Portillo,
and the other victim, a male, was not identified.
Weird.
Anyway, they believed that it was, you know,
it was a targeted incident.
It was not a random act of violence.
You certainly didn't feel that way when you were at that Chick-fil-A, though.
I'll tell you that.
Anyway, but have I been to that Chick-fil-A?
Many, many times.
And I've always felt safe.
and secure. And now I have to be concerned about illegal aliens coming up and shooting up my
chick-fil-Aid. No, I say no to that. I do not want that to happen. And then there's a story that
had been sent to me several times. How about this, Jeffie? Talk about a Jeffie scam. Talk about a
Jeffie scam. And this is a church that says a Mexico, this is a story that talks about a Mexico
church selling plots in heaven for $100 a square meter. And there's a,
a post on Instagram that I had sent to me, I don't know how many times.
The church is going viral for selling plots of land in heaven, $100 per square meter.
The pastor says he spoke to God and he granted permission to do this.
I have already collected thousands of dollars.
And I did see it.
It's not real.
Okay.
It's a good scam if you could pull it off, but it's not real.
So it doesn't just came from a joke website, satire.
And the original story talked about the church collecting millions of dollars since 2017.
And he's been selling plots in heaven.
And so it also takes digital payments.
And they talk about exploding.
Explodive pastors and what's going on,
and now we're selling plots in heaven,
and did he actually talk to God?
And the answer is, well, no, he didn't actually talk to God
because the story itself isn't true.
But, you know, if you can pull it off, good for you.
Oh, did you see where my man, Kanye West?
Oh, sorry, I didn't mean to dead will name him.
Yay, or ye, or whatever you want to call him,
is now accused of sending porn to Yeezy Staffers.
Apparently, the wife or the woman or whoever the heck she is,
Bianca Sensori, has been accused of sending X-rated material to Yeezy Staffers
in this new lawsuit.
I guess she sent a link to hardcore sexual content
with an employee after the rapper announced the launch of his adult film business.
Yeah, Yeezy porn.
That was going to happen.
So apparently the videos were accessible to staffers who were minors.
Okay.
Against the development of the new, you know, porn app.
So his former chief of staff, Milo Yanopoulos, right?
Is that how you say his stupid name?
Milo Yanopoulos.
Yeah.
Milo Yanapolis.
Yanapolis.
Yeah, that's what I said.
They were both named as defendants.
But Yanapolis.
I'm sorry.
What was it again?
Milo Yanopoulos.
Yeah.
He engaged in forced labor and cruel inhuman degrading treatment as employees were
allegedly subjected to racist remarks and referred to as new slaves.
While they were developing the point, I'm not laughing.
It's not funny at all.
As they were developing the porn app, as well as a streaming app,
YZYVSN, to compete with Apple Music and Spotify.
So, uh,
Milo Yanofalas.
He and, uh, West hired a group of international black developers,
including several under the age of 14 to help build the apps.
According to the docs, the employees were primarily remote,
but often communicated with the rappers team on.
via platform such as Slack and Zoom.
The workers claim that
was supposed to pay them $120,000.
When the app was complete,
as long as they agreed to work demanding hours
and there were no complaints.
Yeah, we wanted to do whatever we say,
but you can't complain about it, okay?
And they were ordered to sign
non-disclosure agreements or face termination without pay.
The developers who were minors
were allegedly required to sign volunteer agreements.
During the employment, the workers allege that white managers often use degrading language toward them,
depending on their age, sex, race, and sexual orientation.
Milo!
Milo, you're not the loss.
Allegedly sent one black employee an emoji of a person with dark skin and allegedly called another a school shooter.
Come on now.
In addition to the unpaid wages and overtime pay, the employees are also seeking damages.
for emotional distress.
West and...
Milo Yanofil Moss did not respond to this story.
And I don't think that...
Milo Yanofilas.
Works for West anymore.
Yeah, because it says his former chief of staff,
because he didn't want anything to do with the porn stuff.
He was okay with all the streaming stuff,
but he did not want anything to do with the porn.
And so he left.
So I don't know who's running the joint now, but we'll see.
We shall see.
It's going to be interesting to see what settles and what doesn't and who could say what or what.
It's really funny.
And it's not funny at all if it's true.
If.
And that's a capital I, capital F, if true.
When I got a great deal on a great gift at winners, I started wondering, could I get fabulous
for everyone on my list?
Like this designer fragrance for my daughter.
At just $39.99, how could I resist?
This luxurious wool throw for my sister.
This gold watch for my partner?
A wooden puzzle for my niece?
Leather gloves for my boss?
Ooh, European chocolate for...
The Crossing Guard?
At these prices, could I find something for everyone at Winners?
Stop wondering.
Start gifting.
Winners find fabulous for less.
So the robots are common, or at least AI, uh, is common.
coming. I see where we now have a AI tool named Mia or Maya, M-I-A, and it has successfully identified
tiny breast cancers that human radiologists missed. Mia or Maya detected 11 cases of extremely
small cancers during mammogram analysis that were missed by doctors. We all know early
detection is crucial for a successful treatment and higher survival rates.
AI tools can increase diagnostic accuracy and reduce result weight times from 14 to 3.
For example, Mia Maya caught a 6mm tumor in one patient, Barbara, leading to less invasive
treatment and better survival odds.
Without AI, her cancer might have been gone undetected for another three years.
currently two radiologists we view each scan,
but AI could replace one effectively having
Halving Hal having H-A-L-V-I-N-G
cut the workload in half,
and freeing up time for health care providers.
Yeah, so it's just going to happen,
and it's not going to happen gradually.
I guess it'll appear gradual,
but it's just going to be like, yeah, AI said it,
and so it's true.
Oh, okay.
we're not
this is this is how they take over
yeah AI said it
so we just believe it
all right do we
do we want humans to check it out or anything
nope because AI said it and it hasn't
been wrong ever so we're just
going to believe what AI said
period oh
all right I don't really like the way
it looks well don't worry about it
the University of Tokyo has you covered
our researchers unveiled a robot
with lab grown
skin that could mimic the way a real human smiles, and it will be the purpose of the skin
is not to fuel nightmares, but to give the robots a protective layer against wear and tear
that also heals itself. The skin remains attached to the robot in a way that's just as, well,
according to this story, just as upsetting as the idea itself. It seeps through the holes in the robot
skeleton and creates V-shaped hooks that prevent the skin from sliding off the robot.
So we've got that to look forward to.
So at least maybe Mia Maya will have lab grown skin.
So you'll feel a little bit better when Mia Maya says, yep, I detected you have some cancer.
It's really small.
We'll be able to take care of it.
Or maybe at some point AI says, ooh, yeah.
We diagnosed you with cancer, so go over there and walk out the window and be done with you
because we're not going to try to save you.
Nah, that could never happen.
That could never happen.
My gosh.
You know another thing that could never happen is a robot beating Joey Chestnut in an eating contest.
Now, he's not going to be able to eat all his hot dogs in New York at Nathan's event
because he decided to take the money from the impossible burger.
people. But he is coming to Texas for July 4th hot dog eating contest at a military base in El Paso,
Fort Bliss. So he's going to compete against soldiers at a five-minute hot dog eating contest this
year. And I mean, he hasn't lost since 2015. Nathan's wanted to sign him. You know, I mean,
they're bummed. Every story that I read, after he was banned from Nathan's, he wasn't banned from
Nathan's. He took the money from
Impossible Foods, which then went
against his deal with Nathan's.
So then Nathan said, hey,
lose the deal, and then you can come
and, you know, be a part of our, you know,
the world renowned Nathan's Hot Dog
Eating Contest, and you're the
champion. Come back and then he wouldn't do it.
He wanted the money from
impossible food. So, okay,
you do you, Joey, you do you.
I will say, that's my point. Is there
robots are never going to out eat Joey Chestnut.
I don't care. I don't care.
You can create any kind of robot you want with fake skin.
You can tell, you can have the robots say, hey, you've got cancer and you don't.
You're going to have a robot saying you broke the law and you didn't, but you're not going
to have a robot that could devour more hot dogs in five, ten, or 15 minutes than Joey
Chestnut.
That just isn't going to happen.
All right, let's get out of here.
I'll leave you with the joke of the day.
and I love this joke so much
and I've said it to a number of people
so I don't know, I don't remember
if I've told you this joke before.
So I'm going to tell it to you again.
If I did, then you get it again.
And, you know, you're welcome.
Okay, you're welcome.
If I didn't, well, then now this is the first time
and you can laugh for yourself the first time.
Okay?
All right.
I was at Walmart yesterday.
Again, this is not my joke,
although I wish it was because it is,
it makes me laugh every time.
I was in Walmart yesterday.
and this elderly lady was in front of me
and her total came to $279.69.68.
But her card was declined.
So y'all already know what I did.
God will bless me one day.
It was a lot of groceries,
but I helped put them all back.
Do you know you laughed?
You know you did.
You know you did.

You may have heard of the sex cult nexium and the famous actress who went to prison for her involvement, Alison Mack.
But she's never told her side of the story until now.
People assume that I'm like, this pervert.
My name is Natalie Robamed. And in my new podcast, I talked to Allison to try to understand how she went from TV actor to cult member.
How do you feel about having been involved in bringing sexual trauma at other people?
I don't even know how to answer that question.
Alison After Nexium from CBC's Uncover is available now on Spotify.
Bye.
