Starting point is 00:00:00 I want them to see that it's on. Hello. Oh, wait. Hold on. I'm turning the microphone on and off. There's a huge lift outside of the studios going up and down, making all kinds of noise. So if you hear it in the background today during the podcast, you'll know that they're working outside the studio and have no respect for the on air light. See, the problem is that there's a wall there.
Starting point is 00:00:23 They can't see the light. Yeah, well, that's what they can because I'm... And when I expected the person from Blaze Radio, the person who's running... Steve Day's show almost called him something else. He goes out and I'm waiting for him to say, hey, we've got live program going on here. Does he say that?
Starting point is 00:00:44 No, he goes out and looks. He comes back and goes, there's a lift they got going on up and that. I know that. Thanks for going out and checking. Why don't you say something? Anyway, welcome to the podcast, chewing the fat. Thank you for coming along for the ride today.
Starting point is 00:01:01 We do have, this is actually sad news. And I hate to start the show with sad news. you know over the 4th of July holiday Jim Beam Bourbon in Kentucky in Woodford County
Starting point is 00:01:19 burned two barrel warehouses at the facility caught fire it was unclear what caused the blaze so they've got it under control now
Starting point is 00:01:36 because it was a week ago but The sad news of the fire, let alone the sad news of the burning of the bourbon. It was young bourbon, by the way, just so you know. The 45,000 barrels of relatively young whiskey. We're lost in the blaze. You aren't lying big time. But the sad news is that now along the river, this is a bunch of dead fish.
Starting point is 00:02:09 They're rim-shotting the dead fish. They're saying, ah, you know, it'll dissipate. What's all that whiskey? When it gets down to the Ohio River, it'll be fine. We're not worried about it. What about all the fish now? Ah, we'll clean it up. I don't worry about it.
Starting point is 00:02:25 We'll throw it some new fish in there. It'll dissipate. It'll be fine. Don't worry about. What about all the dead? It's going to smell nice. I mean, I don't know if you ever been in Florida with the red tide with all the dead fish. Woof.
Starting point is 00:02:38 It is not a. It's not a happy smell at all. Today's a good day if you like Chick-fil-A. All you have to do is dress up like a cow. Now, you may say, but Jeff, didn't you get free Chick-fil-A at one time and didn't dress up as a cow? You just went in and said, hey, I'd like my free Chick-fil-A, and they said, okay. Yes, that did happen in the past. I don't know why
Starting point is 00:03:47 I don't know why I was just nice of them to do such a nice thing Some people took it as The Chick-fil-A person thought I was Dressed as a cow Take it whatever you like But today's today all you got to do is have come in Some of the people that come in with their cow paraphernalia on man Unbelievable
Starting point is 00:04:10 It's amazing so have a good day Go to Chick-fil-A Dress up in your cow paraphernalia And get yourself some free chick-finalia Filet. Or you can just be like me and roll in and say, yo, I'm here. Oh, okay. And you get your free Chick-fil-A. Also, as long as we're talking about food, Burger King is going to be selling tacos. Do we want Burger King selling tacos? I'm not real sure about that one.
Starting point is 00:04:57 Would I try it if it was in front of me? The answer would be yes. Would I go out of my way to get a Burger King Taco? The answer would be, well, maybe yes. Maybe yes to that too. Probably not, though, really. Not really. And we have the company that, uh,
Starting point is 00:05:32 operates 35 restaurants, ranging from, you know, fine dining, polished casual eateries, Henry's Taverns, Stanford's, Kincaids, they all file for Chapter 11 protection in Delaware on Sunday because of minimum wage hikes in the story. The company is quoted as saying progressive wage policies helped force upscale. What is that? Why is that? Why did you say progressive way? Because that's the story.
Starting point is 00:06:12 Too political, bro. So the headline to this story, fine. I'm not going to argue with you, that's fine. The headline to this story is Apple has killed off the original MacBook. Headline. And you think, sad news. Oh, no. Right.
Starting point is 00:06:29 And then you'd play sad music. But we're not going to do that. Don't. Don't. You know, you hear the. Gunshot, you didn't hear that. But in the story itself, it didn't expressly say in its release that it discontinued the 12-inch MacBook laptop that it first unveiled in 2015. Then why did you put the headline?
Starting point is 00:06:50 They just didn't mention it, so it's just gone. They're just going to make it go away, is all. Updates to its MacBook Pro and MacBook Air laptops, lowering the starting price to the Air to $1,999,000, and adding more features into the entry-level MacBook Pro. Yeah, as long as we didn't mention the original one because there won't be any more updates. Nothing will happen. Use it until it breaks. And then, oops, sorry. That's too bad.
Starting point is 00:07:24 Have a nice day. All right. So, it's summertime. Everybody wants to go on vacations. Everybody wants to do stuff. I don't believe in vacations, really. It goes against my grain. When you're supposed to go on vacation this week?
Starting point is 00:07:40 I don't know. No. No, I mean, sure you might have planned to take some time off. Sure. That might have been true. Because your wife is like roaming the country. My wife doesn't believe in being in the same house as me anymore. She was a Bob Evans a couple days ago.
Starting point is 00:08:01 I know. She's up in the Northeast. Now she's in West Virginia. She's in California. She's all in the Northeast. What? Is she drawn? Did she drown?
Starting point is 00:08:08 Yeah, there's like flash floods over there. Oh, yeah, it's going to storm big time. And it has been raining all the time. They've been really struggling with the rain. No, she's fine. I mean, I see it on Instagram, so she must be fine. Oh, so we both get the same updates. I just follow her on Instagram.
Starting point is 00:08:22 It's fine. You know, I get updates. You follow her on Facebook. And I see, hey, there's my wife. That's where she's at now. So whenever she decides to come back, I guess I'll find out on Instagram. I'm back home now. Will it be sad when she comes back?
Starting point is 00:08:42 I mean, the music says so. The music says so, but I don't know that it will be. So she's going, I don't know when she comes. I don't know when she's due back. I've got a calendar somewhere that's got dates on it. The tornado didn't take that calendar? It didn't matter, no, because that calendar still lives. The only way that that calendar would have gotten changed is if there would have been
Starting point is 00:09:09 a death. There would have been a death from some sort of storm or something. The calendar would have been changed. No death? Bye-bye. The calendar still lives. It's fine.
Starting point is 00:09:22 I'm out. How do you feel about that? Anyway, I was going to tell you about a new story. Oh, seriously, how you feel about that? Whatever, we had a planned already. Why are you, what are you starting to start a fight? No, I'm just saying, you know, how do you feel? You're a fight starter is what you want.
Starting point is 00:09:38 You already start a fight. I'm fine. You don't look fine. You don't look distressed. No. No, who doesn't want to? House a house? It's a fix?
Starting point is 00:09:50 100%. Hold on. 100%. Like it never happened. Wow, that's pretty quick. It's been in three weeks now. I know. It's like it never happened.
Starting point is 00:09:59 What's like it never happened was the fix is really what's what's like it never happened because it hasn't. Nothing. And I'll tell you another. No, I'm not going to tell you that. just know that nothing has been done. And just know that there have been several storms that have come through the area since the last three weeks. And just know that because of those new storms and nothing really has been done, I mean, more damage is being done.
Starting point is 00:10:32 So who doesn't want to stay in a hotel for the rest of their life? Does it come with a pool and free breakfast? It does. Oh, then I'm all saying. And between five and seven, you get a little, sometimes they have, you know, cooking out stuff from five to seven too. Wine, drinks, little get-togethers, meet time, a little social,
Starting point is 00:10:50 afternoon social. So do you know the main by now? I know them all. Nice. There's another guy that stays in there. I see him every morning. He's been staying in the same. He's built,
Starting point is 00:11:00 but he's building a house. He's building a house. And he's just staying there while the house gets built. Must be nice. And it's very nice because where our hotel is, you're not building a house in that neck of the woods,
Starting point is 00:11:14 you're not building a, you're not putting a new trailer in. Oh, no, no, no, no. You're saying that, yeah. The workers are living in a trailer. Yes. While they're building in the house, yes. So, I mean, it's very nice.
Starting point is 00:11:25 He owns a trucking company, and he's missing, I see him every day, though. Hey, what's going on? We have breakfast together every day. We go down, have a bagel, hang out. How's it going? Hey, there's a little TV. Check back about the weather.
Starting point is 00:11:36 Can I come over for the pool? So anyway, I was going to tell you about this new, this new tourist destination. Yeah, you're a hotel for the pool? Yeah, that's just a different story. Oh. A different story. So you're gonna.
Starting point is 00:11:50 Do you know where it's at, right? Yeah, I know. I booked a hotel for you. So I know where's that. That's the one you need to go to. They moved you? That's the one you need to go to. Let me, no, no, no, stop by that one.
Starting point is 00:12:01 Anytime you, that's exactly. They moved to you. Exactly where you know, no, no, no, no, no, no. No, no, no, no. That's the one you need to go. I look forward to see him. you there. Let me know what you're there. Take an Instagram, take a shot. You know what? Just for that. I am. I am. You know what? I am.
Starting point is 00:12:25 I want to tell you about the new tourist destination, which is not my hotel. But please, Chris, stop by any time. Anytime. Man, my hotel is your hotel. U.S. airports, a new tourist destination. Terminal tourists. Hang out, shop, eat. You have to go through security. But once you're in secure, once you're past security, you're good. You just hang out at the airport. I mean, I, you know, I guess I get the idea of,
Starting point is 00:13:02 they talk to, they talk to a grandfather who takes his kids to the airport. And he says, you know, once you get them through security, I feel safe. I kind of understand that. Right? I mean, I can kind of understand. a little bit. I don't know that I necessarily agree with it, but I can understand his deal. I don't know that I want to go through security just to hang out at the airport and, uh, wasn't that like the old days?
Starting point is 00:13:30 Pay airport prices. But wasn't that like the old days? I mean, but airports. Yeah, a little bit. Yeah, you could just go in there. But and when you say the old days, when you went to the airport, you weren't paying past security prices. I don't know if you look at the prices. Uh, I don't know if you look at the prices. You talk about price gouging. Once you get past security, the airports are price gouging. Yeah, $20 a bottle.
Starting point is 00:13:54 The state needs to investigate, although they won't. They won't. They care about the gas station guy that's selling water for $3 a bottle during a storm. They don't care about the airports. They don't care about a, they don't care about. So there's new tourist attraction. Anyway, I just. That is not your hotel?
Starting point is 00:14:21 No, no. It is my hotel. is your hotel, Chris. Oh, so it is your hotel. You stop by. Anytime. So really, did it move you? Anytime.
Starting point is 00:14:29 Did it move you? Anytime. That Hindu guy was not doing it for you? Anytime you want. So, you know, we've talked a lot about road rage on this show. And I like to think of myself as an inside the car road rager. You know, like, I know you're not going to do that. I know it.
Starting point is 00:14:47 I know you're not going to go ahead. Go ahead. Get over. You're fine. Yeah, no, I got it. Give a little wave. Let them in. No, you are not getting in.
Starting point is 00:14:54 I am not letting you. And I've been waiting in this line for far too long to let you in. Go ahead. All right. You're a worse. You're not going to get in. Yeah, I'm worse. I'm fighting.
Starting point is 00:15:08 I'm fighting. You're going to let me in. You let me in. You let me in. You see me right? You're not going to let. Fine. I'll wait.
Starting point is 00:15:14 Go ahead. I mean, I'm not that guy. Oh, no. I'm bumper to bumper. We're playing chicken. I'm not that guy. So this lady gets into a road, Ray, Jensen. This is a horrible story, actually.
Starting point is 00:15:25 But she's all mad and they get into a fight. And they travel. I mean, she follows this guy to his house. Hubby's in the car with him. She gets out and finally she wants to shoot the guy. She pulls out a gun and she wants to shoot. Don't joke around about this one, okay, because it ends horribly. And I mean that.
Starting point is 00:15:43 All right. So she wants to shoot the guy that she's pissed at for the road reason. She fires the weapon. Shoot her husband. Shoots her husband. Now you can shoot the gun. No, no, because he doesn't die. Why are you going to make fun of it?
Starting point is 00:16:00 No, I just want to see the look on your face. When I first read it, holy crap, she killed her husband. No, he's still alive. He's fine. What did she shoot him? He got him on the shoulder or something. He's fine. Move on.
Starting point is 00:16:12 Shut up. What do you let the wife do that for to begin with? First of all, yes. I'm sorry. Calm down. Who's wearing those pants in that relationship? I think we know. The lady with the gun is wearing the pants, man.
Starting point is 00:16:23 I'm doing what I want. But she's still, she's still being charged with attempted murder. Oh, well, yeah. Assault in the second degree. Reckless endangerment. Right? I know.
Starting point is 00:16:37 So just be careful when you road rage, Mr. I go, I'm going toe to toe. I'm going to bumper to bumper. I'm not playing. Okay. All right, Mr. I got a bulletproof windows. That little boozy-ass car you drive
Starting point is 00:16:52 has bulletproof windows. Yes. Have you seen my car? car, it was shot before, so I had to put bulletproof windows. That cannot be true. Okay. That cannot be true. I still have the shots.
Starting point is 00:17:01 I left them on the body, but I put bulletproof windows on my car. I was shot when I was in the military. Why was that car shot when you were in the military? Because I was part of investigation to get illegals out of the military base, and they came back at me. And they shot me at work and at where you live. They shot your car. Yes.
Starting point is 00:17:22 They didn't shoot you. No, no, no. It's like a little bomb. That's like your little bomb story. Oh, no. Oh, a bomb went off in the Middle East. I'm hurt. Actually, it's pretty cool because they had to move me from off base to on base
Starting point is 00:17:34 because they were threatening to kill me because I deport them. So you made the government? You bastard. You made my tax dollars pay for a bulletproof windows on your car? No, insurance covered in. That's why my insurance rates are so high. I'll find a way to be pissed about this. No, because you don't have USAA.
Starting point is 00:17:54 You don't have military, so. Try again, baby. Try again. You know what your military base should have done? It's put up the noisemakers. Keep the illegals out. So in Philadelphia, in the parks, now they've installed these sonic devices. And there's noisemakers, and according to this story, mostly the young here.
Starting point is 00:18:34 Under 25. What is that? Mostly the young here. Yeah. are you saying that if you're not under 25 you can't hear anymore I put into them no I will say that if I'm listening out of my left ear I'm not listening I'm not hearing him you can barely hear me my right my right ear my right ear my might maybe hear it I mean if I lay on my left if I lay on my right side
Starting point is 00:18:53 okay this is my this is when you want when I've talked about this before when I'm laying in the bed with my wife and she starts beep beep beep beep beep beep and I want to go to sleep I just roll over and go on my right side she knows what I'm on my right side conversation is over Well, she can keep talking Yeah, but a conversation is over But I'm here I'm sound asleep
Starting point is 00:19:14 I'm gone That's what I hear That's what I hear That's what I hear So if I roll off the right side Then she's still I tell you, I'm here doing this Why do you do it
Starting point is 00:19:25 I told you how many times I can tell you back to the right side I'm fine, I'm gone So maybe I'm good in the park I'm a little over 25 How many times have you? A little over 25. There's been a few 25s in there.
Starting point is 00:19:41 There's a few 25s. So, I mean, Philadelphia, they should, look, we just saw over the 4th of July, they're going down South Street, rioting these young whippersnappers, these young punks, they're fighting, they're wrecking, they damaged businesses, they looted a Walgreens of thousands of dollars of merchandise. What? No one likes it. Don't start bad mouth in Walgreens.
Starting point is 00:20:08 If it was to CVS, that's when I go in. I'm like, what are you doing to CVS? It's a Walgreens fan. How can you like CBS? How can you like CBS? I went yesterday to get some heart medication because I ran out. The receipt 10 feet long. I know.
Starting point is 00:20:21 I have it in the car just for you. Thank you. I brought it just for you. Because it's agonizing. It's agonizing. They have 20 feet long receipts for one thing. They don't sell cigarettes anymore. You don't smoke.
Starting point is 00:20:34 It's stop. Now they're going to start. Stop. You don't smoke. So what should you care? It doesn't matter. They should have the product on the shelf for people who want it. For the people who want it?
Starting point is 00:20:42 No. Yes, they should. You are non-smokers. It's a legal product in America. They should sell it. Not in Texas. Because now you have to be 21 to purchase. The legal product.
Starting point is 00:20:52 There's a little age stamp on it, but it's illegal products. Just like alcohol. Okay. Which, I mean, I disagree with the whole 21 thing, too. Don't start with me on that. And the dim. You're going to cut, it's almost, never mind.
Starting point is 00:21:06 Almost went political. And this story is almost political. The Philadelphia story, because it's the government that's putting these speakers in the city in the parks. So I'll try not, I'll just tell you what they're doing. They're trying to keep certain unwanted people out of the parks. Oh, you can just let NPR tell us. Or we have the NPR report about the sonic devices? We do.
Starting point is 00:21:29 Now on chewing the fat. We have a report brought to you by NPR. Please, NPR. Tell us about the sonic devices that are targeting teenagers. in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. In this country, Philadelphia is trying to keep certain unwanted people out of... I'm sorry. Please, NPR.
Starting point is 00:21:53 Tell us, I got into my NBR news, not the report. I mean, that's more of a talk host. Yes, yes. That's a, yes. That's an NBR talk host, but you got to, we go, we go down to our newsman in the news booth right down the hall here on NBR to tell us about the sonic devices that are targeting teenagers in Philadelphia. Don? In this country, Philadelphia is trying to keep certain unwanted people out of parks.
Starting point is 00:22:17 The city has been playing a constant high-pitched noise at night, a noise that only teenagers and young adults can hear. Here's Michaela Winberg of our member station, W.HYY. If you look at the rec center building at Philadelphia's East Poplar Playground, you'll see a small beige speaker screwed into the wall. Oh, yes. Every night at 10 p.m., that tiny speaker activates. and for eight hours, they played non-stop. Now remember, at one point, didn't Miami, and I know they've done it on TV shows,
Starting point is 00:22:48 but at one point they were playing, you know, you play music. I mean, that's a torture device, right? Keep people away, because the same thing plays over and over again. Sooner or later it drives you back crazy, right? Our bat's really crazy? I don't know. Let's get back to.
Starting point is 00:23:03 What's her name? Here's what it sounds. Hold on, what's her stupid name? Do you see her name is all the way to the left? Michelle Winnberg. from our member station, W.HYYY. Sounds like, didn't hear anything. If so, it's likely you are not between the ages of 13 and 25.
Starting point is 00:23:22 There's not a thing that played. Are you kidding me? You didn't hear it? There's not one thing that played. I got to turn my headphones up. Hold on. Okay, here we go. I'm going to rewind it again, okay?
Starting point is 00:23:29 There's no way anything played. This is a far story. It's not. Here we go. I'm going to play one more time. My headphones are so loud right. Okay, I'm going to play one more time. And for eight hours, it plays nonstop.
Starting point is 00:23:42 here's what it sounds like didn't hear anything if so it's likely you are not between the age deafening isn't it did you hear it not a chance oh my god my son is like
Starting point is 00:23:57 stop so those of you listening on the podcast that are saying Jimmy stop playing that stupid sound I apologize because we're not actually playing it this is all the ruse because I'm not hearing it
Starting point is 00:24:12 nonstop here's what it sounds like didn't hear anything not deafening deafening is what it is you're right by God I could you can't even stand
Starting point is 00:24:22 to be in the park I know you can't you can't even stand to be in the park and that's playing for that sound eight hours eight hours oh it got to be horrible
Starting point is 00:24:29 I mean I'd be in the park still why's the fat man still in the park I don't know we've been playing that crank it up crank up that sound damn it no way I just sit there
Starting point is 00:24:41 she's not whistling to the beat of the noise. So at 10, I mean, eight hours every night. It's got to, I mean, obviously I can't hear it. But anything that you can hear for eight hours, that's some sort of annoying noise, you're not staying there.
Starting point is 00:24:58 And I want to know how loud are they playing this? Because, you know, the beep is not that loud because, you know, I got my headphones on. But like, how long are you playing this to make it efficient? So are you playing it, you know, at zero or are you cracking up a notch? You know, that's what I'm saying. That's what I'm saying. It's got to be enough to be annoying, right?
Starting point is 00:25:19 Exactly. Because as it says here, you know, as we age, some of the cells in our ears start to die off. Yeah, I got she could say that too. Oh, okay. Let's go back to Michaela Weinberg from our member station, W.HY-Y-Y. So it's likely you are not between the ages of 13 and 25. That's the age group. This sound is targeted toward.
Starting point is 00:25:43 She knows me. As we age, some of the cells in our ears start to die. off. So when we get older, we have trouble hearing higher frequency noises, like the one that this device plays. Don't talk down to me. Philadelphia resident Lamar Reed is 17, and he hears the noise loud. It's so loud. Like, what if it damages our ears or anything? Something like that. It's called the mosquito, and it's an acoustic deterrent device. Is that what you care about? Lamar? Technology used to keep humans or animals away from a designated area. It's usually used by law enforcement or the military. The mosquito was manufactured.
Starting point is 00:26:16 by Vancouver-based moving sound technologies. Michael Gibson is the company's president and says he has worked with about 20 parks departments in cities around the country to install his devices. The intention was was just to move non-confrontationally youth from an area where they should not be. They should be in the park? And that will prevent...
Starting point is 00:26:38 He should be in the park! Not between the hours 10 and 8. It can't be in the park. Not between 10 and 8. prevent graffiti, loitering. It will prevent graffiti. Your device, your device, the moving sound technologies will prevent graffiti. That's an amazing device.
Starting point is 00:26:58 Here's what it sounds like. I'm still drawn. I'm still spraying pain on the walls. Okay, it's not going to prevent graffiti. I can't take it. Rieks is 27 years old and she also hears the annoying sounds. She says the mosquito- I can still hear it.
Starting point is 00:27:15 It's annoying. I'm 29, I can see her here. I can't, you hear it. I told it. Her local rec center gives her headaches when she walks around her neighborhood. It almost is more like a feeling than a sound. It kind of is in the back of your head. And at least for me, I get a headache if I'm near it for too long.
Starting point is 00:27:32 So I usually skip around this block or like walk very quickly. Wait, you make a decision and you go another way? She says she skips. Is it like, la la la la. Yeah, I just skip around this block. Oh, okay. I think she was literally skipping. You know, she says I usually skip around this block.
Starting point is 00:27:48 So, yeah, she goes, you know, she skips around it. Down it. The city has been installing these devices for five years. It not only prevents graffiti and loitering, it also makes people skip. Exercise. Just now causing an uproar. Philadelphia Councilwoman Helen Gim calls them sonic weapons. In a city that is trying to address gun violence and safe spaces for,
Starting point is 00:28:16 young people. How dare we come up with ideas that are funded by taxpayer dollars that turn young people away from the very places that were created for them? I want to agree with her. I do want to agree with her except
Starting point is 00:28:31 we all know that yes, the parks were created for the kids, for the young folks. Okay? And guess what? They can go there not after 10. They can go there 16 hours a day. but between 10 p.m. and 6 a.m., they should be, I don't know, home where they live. Sleeping so could get ready for school.
Starting point is 00:28:57 Funny how that happens. I know the devices were in use until recently, and she argues they discriminate against young people and worries they might have permanent consequences for children's hearing or local wildlife.
