Starting point is 00:00:00 So a week or so ago, we talked about how just thinking about coffee can help you focus. Now, the effect only works for people who associate coffee with alertness, ambition, and productivity. And now we get the new study out that says up to 25 cups of coffee a day. Still safe for heart health. Wow. Now, I will say that I don't know, you know, tomorrow we'll get a study that says this study was wrong and, you know, negative 25 cups of coffee are still bad for you. The only problem I have with any of this is that I love coffee, but the only thing that I could, you know, I'm okay with, I stopped drinking coffee after my heart event. But only because, not because I thought the coffee would be bad for it, because nobody told me to stop drinking coffee.
Starting point is 00:00:55 what they told me to do is stop smoking. So if I'm drinking 25 cups of coffee a day, I am, that's a good, that's a good pack and a half to two packs a day. That is what's bad for you. It's 2019. Happy National Cheese Day. Yes, happy National Cheese Day. It's not bad enough that coffee and cigarettes are bad for you,
Starting point is 00:01:52 but I kind of a feeling that a lot of cheese really isn't good for you either. tell me about, oh, you know, cheese is good for you, and it's, I know that it's addictive, and it gets you high, and I love cheese. I know this is going to come as a surprise to you. I know, I know, but I do. I love cheese.
Starting point is 00:02:12 But today is National Cheese Day. There's all kinds of places that you can get free stuff on National Cheese Day. So if you're listening to this, once we post it, we post Chewing the Fat, 530 Central, 6th, 30 Eastern. So you still have time. If you're listening to it on the day that it's posted,
Starting point is 00:02:27 posted 6-419. And for those of you that have subscribed and get the alert, that's, of course, when you're listening to it. If you have a... Why? If you're listening to this, like, I don't know, a couple of months after, if you were a subscriber, you would have known.
Starting point is 00:02:48 Okay. So, subscribe. You can get... A jack-in-the-box has got a deal for a free cheeseburger with DoorDash. Plus you get the delivery free. Snuffer's got the free cheesy level with free chips. We can go as well if I go down all these lists.
Starting point is 00:03:04 El Phoenix. Bertucci's Brickin' oven pasta. Jimbo's tacos. Giordornees, Popbelly sandwich shop, Arby's, Hungry Howey's, Uno Pizzeria, Highway 55, Carl's Jr., Papa Murphy's, pinstripes, Chili's, Conrad's Grill,
Starting point is 00:03:19 David Busters, Baskin Robbins, Brugers Bagels, Einstein Brothers Bagels. I'm hungry. I'm hungry. And all of those things mentioned, except for maybe Baskin-Robbins, would it be good with cheese on it? I'm not big with cheese on ice cream.
Starting point is 00:03:36 I know. Call me crazy. But I'll still, you know, whatever, I'll have a big block of cheese and then have an ice cream code. I'm okay with that. But to go out and get yourself some cheese on National Cheese Day. Now I just, I have some news that, you know,
Starting point is 00:03:48 we're open here on chewing the fat. We're here, we're open. Our lives are an open book. And so when we're right, we're right, when we're wrong, we're wrong. And I was wrong. And I know, don't look at me like that. Like, you know, it was a big deal, but I happened to be wrong yesterday. And I just want to apologize and say that, you know, I lost the bet.
Starting point is 00:04:14 So sometime later this week, I will spend a day drinking Mountain Dew Liberty Brew instead of my usual Coca-Cola zero sugar. Ice cold. Because I told you, we talked about the Jeopardy contestant, James Holzhauer, who, you know, they leaked the footage of him losing last night. And I thought we'd had. I thought, why would Jeopardy, why would they allow that to be leaked? Right. I mean, and I hope that they're investigating that, really. That was a mistake for them to leak that.
Starting point is 00:04:46 Although maybe it wasn't because still people, everybody watched to see if it was true. but I thought it was I thought that they leaked it and then they could say it wasn't us that leaked it I mean obviously it was wrong and he still won but he did lose he played it dumb I mean he gave some excuse of why he ended up
Starting point is 00:05:04 losing but you know he bet real small at the end I guess he figured he was going to lose anyway his only hope was if what's her face Emma Bottscher the librarian that beat him would get the last the final jeopardy question
Starting point is 00:05:20 wrong so whatever she bet would be would go below his winnings and so he would still pull it out but they all got it right all three got the answer right last night and uh so he lost and so you have the new winner and he you know he amassed like 2.46 million dollars on jeopardy that's not bad came up about 58000 short of jennings winnings and jennings did it in 74 game run his was 32 win run I mean, he won a lot of money. So anyway, he's done. He can have a little party with his daughter. That's all it was about.
Starting point is 00:05:55 I honestly believe he was just tired of it. That's a long run, man. That's keep having to show up to be on Jeopardy like that and run that. And you're recording what, maybe three to five shows a day, right? And so 30 shows is what? A couple of weeks. And something like that. I mean, I could be off on the math, but a couple of weeks.
Starting point is 00:06:18 And it's a long. run. So congratulations, but I just want to say I was wrong. And you know, you have to rub it in. I got it. Okay? I was wrong. So some time this week I'll drink my Mountain Dew Liberty brew instead of my Coca-Cola zero sugar. So have you seen all the footage of the flooding? It is I don't know, I want to use the word amazing or unbelievable. It's really disheartening. The weeks of heavy rain, wave of tornadoes.
Starting point is 00:07:05 I mean, flooding has forced tens of thousands of people to flee. It's damaged or destroyed homes. I mean, it's causing problems for crops. The farmers can't plant crops. It's ruining crops. They're expecting more rain now in the Midwest coming now. river more rivers are overflowing dams are overflowing uh you know it's really ugly and i keep thinking about uh you know my grandparents home they lived on uh they lived on a river in michigan and it was
Starting point is 00:07:36 like you know every it was the the hundred year flood and every year the river would flood and the water would come up to the back of the house and you know there's pictures of it you know there's all kinds of pictures of it or there were and uh the one year the 100 year flood it flooded up above almost to the second floor of the house. And we went in after the flood, after the waters had receded. And it's just heartbreaking the damage that that flooding does. I mean, the entire, you could see the water line,
Starting point is 00:08:07 and anything below that water line is brunt. Bruent. In fact, they had a shelf. They had shelves in the living room. And the top shelf of this shelving unit that they had in their living room had a banjo. No, ukulele and a globe. A ukulele and a black globe that my grandfather had.
Starting point is 00:08:29 Those black globes, by the way, are worth a lot of money. So if you'd like to spend some money on a black globe collector's edition, call me. And the water line was just below that top shelf. So, you know, I got to save some of the things on the first floor. But, you know, any of the musical instruments except for the ukulele, stuff like that, all of that gone. Just ruined. It was so ugly. And so, you know, Mercury 1 is doing.
Starting point is 00:08:52 what they can to help. And if you want to help, you can go to mercury1.org and donate. It's, you know, any help would be greatly appreciated. You know, speaking of mercury1.org, have you got your tickets for the museum yet?

Now, I heard Glenn today on his radio show, you know, the Glenn Beck radio program. everything's got his name on it. He said that he would do more than two if you bought tickets for the family and you brought your whole family, you were bringing your whole family, he would just bring you into the VIP tour.
Starting point is 00:10:33 So not only two tickets. So if you buy tickets for you and the family, you'll be entered into the drawing. And if you win, he'll do the whole family into the personal tour of the museum. So you tune into Glenn's radio show tomorrow morning and he's going to select a winner for the VIs.

So if you don't win, you're still going to have yourself an amazing experience, right, at the museum for 12 score and three years ago. But it is a pretty good shot, especially if you purchase now. So if you're listening to Chewing the Fat now, it's later in the day. And you're going to be like on the top of the pile, the top of the top of the, what did, I used to work, there used to be a fishing show. I worked on 100 years ago.
Starting point is 00:11:21 Captain Mel Berman, and he would put people's name in the hopper. So if your name goes in the hopper, you're going to be on the top of the hopper. It's going to spin around, but it's still going to be on the top. So when it stops and he reaches into the hopper, your name's still going to be there.

Starting point is 00:11:52 And you go, oh, is Glenn starting his tour? And he starts his VIP tour. You just kind of, it's kind of hang around. Just kind of wander around. It's kind of wander around. Plus, I heard they're going to be doing some really other, some really cool stuff with, uh, with an app. I don't even know if where I'm supposed to talk about it.
Starting point is 00:12:11 So, but I believe that they have like a, uh, they've, uh, 3D imaged a lot of stuff and you're going to be able to walk through the museum and have an app that will let you look at the merchandise through your app. I don't even know if I'm supposed to be talking about this. So I'll just shut up
Starting point is 00:12:27 now. So have a chance to win the tour with Glenn Beck 12 score and win the VIP tour with Glenn. If not, just buy tickets and come to the museum. Jeez. Shut up. All right, so if you're going to steal something,
Starting point is 00:12:54 don't you at least want to say, Hey, no, I forgot to pay. It wasn't me. What am I doing? Geez, sorry. Can I take it back in and pay? So a woman was arrested in a Walmart in Pennsylvania, Uniontown. For allegedly, not allegedly, I mean, she did steal it.
Starting point is 00:13:17 I mean, she walked out of the store with a shopping cart full of goods at Walmart worth about $300. Now, according to state police, she pushed a cart full of goods. of these unpaid items into the parking lot at the Uniontown Walmart. And they were 40 items ranging from roses to cosmetics to clothes. It totals $276. Now, after being confronted by the Walmart loss prevention. So Walmart, hey, hold up, lady. Hold up.
Starting point is 00:13:46 You didn't pay for that. Stop right there. The suspect just surrendered. Oh, yeah, here you go. You know what? I didn't pay. And I'll just stay here until the. state police arrive.
Starting point is 00:13:58 What? You gotta be a better criminal than that. You're gonna have to be. If you're gonna steal something like that, you get at least when they walk up to you. Excuse me. We saw you not pay for that stuff. Stay right there.
Starting point is 00:14:16 Now the Walmart loss prevention officer is not doing that. That's not happening. The state police probably aren't shooting shoplifters. They've got enough problems these days without shooting actual shoplifters. But at least a lady could say, what? I forgot to pay?
Starting point is 00:14:32 Oh, my gosh. I got so busy. I was on the phone. I didn't, I just, I walked out of the store. I wasn't even thinking, right.
Starting point is 00:14:38 Let me go back in and pay for it. Or you go, oh, you know, I'm sorry. You know, I meant I still have some shopping to do, in fact. I just had to come out to my car to get something. And I'm going to go back in and finish my shopping now.
Starting point is 00:14:51 I just didn't want anybody to, you know, move my car. I'll be right back in. I wasn't stealing it. I was just coming out to, my car and then I'm going to get back into the store and finish shopping. Something. You just turn it over. Yeah. All right. You caught me. I just figured I could walk out the store and, you know, not pay for anything and not get caught. I mean, you give her a trespass warrant and
Starting point is 00:15:16 move on. Good news, though, the Mall of America attacker, the guy that just decided to pick a kid because he couldn't get a date and throw him over the railing. 19 years in jail for tossing that boy over the railing. I don't even know if that's long enough. But we'll settle for 19 years in jail. Good. Quest Diagnostics. How many have you been to Quest?
Starting point is 00:15:45 Raise your head. You've been to Quest for X-rays, for MRIs? Any of the... No? Well, I have. And, you know, I've had MRIs on every... bones, joints in my body for the last 100 years. In fact, I'm one of the 12 million patients at Quest Diagnostics.
Starting point is 00:16:04 And I'll bet you I'm one of the 12 million patients that may have had their personal information exposed. Yay! Yay! Thanks Quest Diagnostics for keeping me safe. Keeping my information safe. Now, listen, the clinical laboratory released their press release saying it was an unauthorized user. Really?
Starting point is 00:16:27 Gained access to the system. And it was a billing vendor hired by Quest. Now, the information that may have been exposed only included social security numbers and medical information, but not test results. Heaven forbid. We didn't get any test results out. I mean, I think it's time that we realize that all of our information is compromised, no matter what it is.
Starting point is 00:16:53 if you have purchased anything online in the last five years, your information's out there. They know who you are, they know what you are, they know numbers, they know passwords. They might not know the passwords. If they wanted them, they could get them. You know what I mean? If they wanted to get, if they went to do Jeff Fisher, Jeff Fisher, Jeff Fisher.
Starting point is 00:17:15 And they decided that, you know what? I'm going to get inside of that. And they wanted to, I believe that they could. No problem. No, I honestly, I believe that you might as well just figure that. You're just done, right? And no, this is not a commercial. I'm not going into some kind of commercial.
Starting point is 00:17:33 I know you were thinking of that, weren't you? Yeah, I thought I was going to start going into that. You know, what could save you from that? No, I'm not doing that. You're not going to speak about life lock or anything? No, no, I could be, I could. I could easily do it, but no, I'm not. Because they're not a sponsor of this program.
Starting point is 00:17:48 But just for pennies a day, you can make sure. No, they're not a sponsor. We're not doing the commercial. We're not doing it. We're not doing it. And he's a day. Dozens of naked people protest outside Facebook's office. Yay!
Starting point is 00:18:04 I am for any protest where humans are getting naked. If you're getting naked, it's a protest that means something to you. Right? Right. So Spencer Tunic, you know him. He's the photographer and artist of the National Coalition Against censorship. He has naked people lining up in front of all kinds of places around the world. He started this, created We the Nipple, nude outside the office of Facebook.
Starting point is 00:18:35 Now, these people are all naked outside of Facebook, and they've got these things that are like the size of, I don't know, big frisbys, but they look like a male nipple. And they've got, you know, they're covering up their genitalia with the male nipple. And they've got, they're all holding one or two of the, of the, of the, of the, of the giant frisbee nipples. I mean, if you aren't mad at Facebook because of these protesters, I don't know how to make you get mad. I don't know how to do it.
Starting point is 00:19:07 If you're going to protest something and you're naked and walking around with a giant frisbee nipple, you mean business. All right, let's go to the break room. I do need another drink of Coca-Cola zero sugar. Oh, so good. I know it's going to have to be Mountain Dew sometime this week. I got it. Losing my bed.
Starting point is 00:19:51 Congratulations to Jay-Z. Jay-Z is now officially a billionaire. Yay! So Forbes reported that Jay-Z reached the three-coma club. The magazine said that that makes a big. him the first hip-hop billionaire beating Dr. J. Or Dr. Dre. Dr. Jay is never a billionaire.
Starting point is 00:20:18 He's a basketball player. Dr. Dre. I'm surprised because Dre is probably pretty close to that. Jay-Z, Sean Carter, 22 Grammys, 14 number one albums to his name. That's only valued at 75 million. But he has a stake in a champagne company.
Starting point is 00:20:39 That tops about 310 million. He has investments includes 70 million in a slice of Uber that he bought for 2 million in 2013. And he has money in a cognate company
Starting point is 00:20:54 and a streaming service which is worth about 100 million each. And that puts him over the billion. I mean, congratulations. Good for him. I mean, I would love to be a billionaire myself.
Starting point is 00:21:10 just as a passing note, it would be worth my time to be a billionaire. Kevin Spacey, back in court. Remember what happened up in the club car, the bar where the accuser, according to him, while it was groping the bus boy, up in Mantucket? I got to tell you, it sounds like he's innocent.
Starting point is 00:21:38 I'm just looking at it. He's in court. you didn't say anything to anybody. Here's Kevin Spacey, following the rule of thumb from chewing the fat. Just because people put a microphone in a camera in front of your face doesn't mean you have to say anything. It just doesn't. And he didn't.
Starting point is 00:21:57 Bless his heart. So I know he's accused of groping this 18-year-old. From 2016, this is all his mom's doing. I mean, this kid, the whole thing. But they don't have the information that happened. They wanted, his defense wanted to get the accuser's mom's phone information and the boys' phone information. And all they gave was screenshots of texts that supported the accusations. And that was the foundation on which the charges were filed.
Starting point is 00:22:30 Yeah. But what about the other stuff behind it? That's all gone. Some of that. We don't have any of that. Yeah. You know, the prosecutor would like to see that, but sorry. And we just can't get, I mean, it's going to be, this is going to go on and on.
Starting point is 00:22:44 Now, they want to get this thing over with. And the judge even said, no, I mean, this thing's probably going to go on and on for a while. And the next hearing is until July 8th. So this is going to be going on for quite a while. We have a Richard Simmons. You know, I love Richard Simmons. I'm a fan. Apparently, you know, people have been concerned about him.
Starting point is 00:23:06 and he was sick a couple years ago, and he posted, he's been seriously in hiding. You know, he's a recluse now. I mean, he's 70. He doesn't want to see anybody. Everybody thought he was dead or in hiding. Maybe somebody was bullying him at his house or whatever, and he said, no, I don't know, I'm fine.
Starting point is 00:23:24 But Billy Blanks, the, you know, the Taibo master, he said, I wouldn't be surprised to see him returning to public eye soon. I don't know how the, Tymo Creator believed that Richard would be back, but he said that he believes Simmons dropped off public radar because, you know, he wanted to take care of himself, and now he's going to be back in the public eye very soon. I want to say this, if Richard Simmons wants to come back into the public eye
Starting point is 00:23:56 and he needs somebody to give him a little bit of interview love, not just interview, hey, what's wrong with you, but interview love, I'm here. Jeff Fisher and chewing the fat. let Richard Simmons know I'm here for him I will do an entire week of shows with Richard Simmons No problem
Starting point is 00:24:15 I am happy to do an entire week of shows with Richard Simmons chewing the fat And that ties into his health nut Chewing the fat I mean I'm here for him 100% So you know we're so worried in today's world
Starting point is 00:24:31 As long as we're in the break room I'm thirsty As long as we're here in the break room We've talked a lot about robots and, you know, what robots can do for you in today's world and what we're supposed to be scared of and what's blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. Well, this idea, this million dollar idea is tremendous, and I wish I would have thought of it. Now, right now it's just for iPhones. So it hasn't made it out of iPhones.
Starting point is 00:25:01 But it's a phone case that the back of the phone case on the back of your phone is a hand. It's like Nammy's hand And so you can carry your phone Holding this replica of a real hand It just looks I love this idea Now I know a lot of you are going to think Ew You're holding somebody's hand?
Starting point is 00:25:24 Yes It's a really cool phone case You just set it down in the hand Is there on the back of the back of the phone Ah ha! Oh that is you know Because everybody's got their little holders on the back now that has the rings and the little pop-up thing that you can hold on to so you're texting
Starting point is 00:25:41 and spinning it around and you can do the same only with Danny's hands. So are you going to not put it in your pocket anymore? What do you mean? Well, it's next to your, you know what, is that why you like the phone hand case so much? So does it work that way? I mean, it can. I mean, you put an extreme vibration on your phone. You just keep calling it.
Starting point is 00:26:04 What do you think is going to happen? I think I need to order one. We call it the phone jack. Speaking of phone jacks, Tinder said it is agreed to comply with an order from Russia, placing it on a list of companies expected to help its security. Right. So Tinder is saying, hey, yeah, that's fine. You can put us on this list. We are complying with the Russian government, but we're not handing over any of our user data today.
Starting point is 00:26:35 I mean, we're not heading over. Okay, really, we're not heading over any user data. You honestly believe that the user data isn't going to be mandatory to the Russian government? Stop it. Okay. All right, one more speaking of phone jack stories. All right, this story makes the rounds ever so often, and I might as well do it as long as I'm tying into the phone jacks.
Starting point is 00:27:02 Uranus once took a hard pounding. We'll just leave it at that. You know, we talk a lot about finding things that would make us rich. We talk a lot about, you know, we joke around about keeping drugs that were washed up on the beach or we find a suitcase along the side of the road worth millions. We talk about people who have, you know, found a painting that's been in their garage for 100 years and it's worth, you know, millions of dollars. We have a family that found,
Starting point is 00:27:49 we have a family that found a chess piece that Grandpa had in a drawer that's worth millions now. It's simply amazing. A medieval chess piece, one of five that have been missing for two centuries was in a drawer in Edinburgh. Eh, you know, had grandpa had it.
Starting point is 00:28:13 He purchased it off somebody, He thought it was kind of cool. They threw it in a drawer. The kids looked at it. Every so often, they'd open the drawer and go, oh, isn't that cool? It's a chess piece. We don't know what it is.
Starting point is 00:28:23 It's going to be at least a million bucks. Probably 1.3 or more million dollars. Amazing. It's part of a famous group of four medieval chess sets discovered in 1831. The chess piece is really cool, too. and most of them are crafted from walrus ivory, sometime between the 12th and 13th century. I love this piece, this chess piece, and would love to have it.
Starting point is 00:28:56 And we talk about, you know, look, the mega millions tonight, right? The lottery is $475 million. So, you know, there's another way for you to, you know, break through and have that big lump of life-changing money. and for many of us, that's what it's going to take. I saw this that is just, I don't know if it's, well, nearly a quarter of Americans say they've saved nothing for retirement. According to a new Federal Reserve report, 17% of Americans ages 45 to 59 have nothing squirled away, while 13% of those 60 and older admit the same thing.
Starting point is 00:29:40 wow I mean and I look I understand it I know how it's possible you your divorces your job changes
Starting point is 00:29:50 your retirement funds you throw them in a pile and just things go things happen so you know you're looking for that mega million winner
Starting point is 00:29:59 winning ticket you're hoping to find the chess piece in the drawer from grandpa so you know it's never too soon no that's a wrong it's never too late
Starting point is 00:30:09 It's never too late to at least try to save something, right? Welcome to Save Money Talk on Chewing the Fat. So there's so many times when I think we've talked about it on this show. We talk about how do people think these racist thoughts anymore? I don't get it. You know, we hear stories all the time about people calling other people the N word and all, you know, just this racist thoughts. And I think for real how in today's world, I don't know how it's done. I don't know how people do it.
Starting point is 00:30:41 So there's a story coming out of Austin, Texas. And I'm familiar with Austin. My oldest son lives in Austin. And this story is from a Holiday Inn Express in Austin, Texas. Craig Brooks is his name. He's a 26-year-old guest service employee at the Holiday Inn Express. And, you know, Holiday Inn Expresses are nice. They're fine.
Starting point is 00:31:03 And pleasant, you know, free breakfast, just saying. Anyway, so he takes an unnamed. woman's credit card information to book a room. And she said she'd be there within 10 minutes, and he responded, he would see her then, but didn't hang up to phone right away. So after taking her credit card information, he doesn't hang up the phone,
Starting point is 00:31:24 and the woman on the other end says, that effing N word is still on the line. Now, that's amazing. that you would even, you know, you'd say it anyway, but, you know, you're still on the phone. You shouldn't be saying it at all, let alone you're, just horrible. So when the woman shows up at the hotel, he says, yeah, no, I'm, you're not getting a room here tonight.
Starting point is 00:32:03 And, uh, it's a best Western down the road. but you know you're not getting a room here and she goes crazy i need to stay here my mother died i understand he was nice through the whole thing he he recorded himself talking to this lady i understand that but you called me an effing n word and uh you weren't sorry and she says ah she said she was sorry you weren't sorry when you said it to me on the phone so uh he already talked to the management, told the management what happened, management said, no problem.
Starting point is 00:32:42 She can hit the bricks. You know, because of course, what is management going to say? So, no way. I mean, we have zero tolerance toward that stuff. There's no place that doesn't have zero tolerance to that kind of stuff anymore. If there is, I'd like to know where.
Starting point is 00:32:58 There's no place that actually will come out and so, well, no, we don't have any. We got a little tolerance for that. I don't know, no problem. No, it doesn't happen. So she is all wound up and now Best Western is involved and she needed a room. I mean, good for this guy for doing what he did. And he stayed calm and nice and wasn't hateful.
Starting point is 00:33:25 That person was the hateful one. Yeah, Best Westerns down the road, but you're not getting a room here tonight. Sorry. And he even said, this is the first time I could remember. remember I've ever been called a racial slur. I'm in Austin. Austin is very liberal. Boy, that's a fact.
Starting point is 00:33:43 And you don't have to deal with stuff like that. It amazes me that people still think like that in 2019. And it should. It should. Because it definitely shouldn't be. It's amazing that this happened. It was handled beautifully. So let's say,
Starting point is 00:34:18 you're, you know, swimming in the Atlantic Ocean. You know, off the coast of North Carolina. Out there at, you know, Fort Megan State Park in North Carolina. And you and your dad are swimming. And all of a sudden, a shark starts to biting you. You're freaking out. And then dad is freaking out. This 17-year-old daughter and her father are swimming.
Starting point is 00:34:47 And a shark attacks the 17th. year old page the guy's daughter. Ouch. Way outch. Way outch. The dad freaks out a former military veteran so he's got at least a little bit of thought of hey you know I got to do something he's not
Starting point is 00:35:03 completely freaked out. He punches the shark he punches the shark five times to finally let him undo, you know, let his daughter go. He saved his daughter's life by punching the shark according to the Atlantic Beach Fire Department,
Starting point is 00:35:21 she had deep lacerations to her leg, pelvic, and hand areas. In a Facebook post, it said she lost one of her legs and some of her, or one leg and some of her fingers. Amazing. I mean, he saved her life by punching the shark. Now, you know, the story goes that she is still, you know, she has posted, hey, sharks are still good people. Don't be mad at the shark.
Starting point is 00:35:49 I was swimming in their territory, that kind of stuff. How about no? No? And how about we find that shark? And yeah, I get dad saving his daughter, which was tremendous. And I would hope that I would have the guts to, you know, swim up and punch that shark. You know, obviously, you do whatever you can. to save your kid, no matter what.
Starting point is 00:36:20 But then to be okay with sharks after that, hey. How do you feel about sharks now? I know, but don't you think sharks deserve to be, you know? Yeah, no. I was swimming. We're humans and they should be left away out there. I don't, you were, I was swimming.
Starting point is 00:36:44 Sharks are good people too. Yeah. Thank you. Yeah, no. answered that question wrong. Sharks are not good people. I mean, thank the Lord she's still alive and still in good spirits and able to, you know, to joke around a little bit about it. But, boy, do I disagree with sharks are good people. And I think we ended it yesterday with this, so we might as well end it today. I'm not doing sharks and good people. Not happening. Exactly.
