Every show in America, every show around the world today started with sad news.
I won't do it.
I won't do it and you cannot make me.
We're starting with some good, no, no, no, we're not doing sad music.
We're not starting the show off sad.
I won't have it.
We're doing something good, something happy, something exciting.
It's not going to be sad news.
We're going to start with, well, yes, I like that.
Thank you.
Welcome to the.
Chewing the Fat Lounge. Nice to have you along today.
Little note, Victoria's Secret hired as first openly transgender angel, the stunning Brazilian Valentino Sempeo.
Congratulations to Victoria's Secret and Valentin. Welcome to Victoria's Secrets and
I gosh, we can't wait to see you come down the runway.
Thanks for coming to the
Chewing the Fat Lounge.
I kind of like that
I like that lounge music.
I'm doing boys because I'm talking
because I'm talking on the air and in your ear.
Whatever.
Whatever.
What's your problem?
You just started talking without asking me
if we were recording or not.
If you tell me that we weren't recording,
I swear.
We were.
recording, but I'm just saying you know.
You're damn right we were recording.
So,
horrible weekend. I know.
It's horrific weekends of homicides
all over the country.
But Neil deGrasse Tyson
tweeted out a tweet this weekend
that threw everybody into a tizzy.
His tweet, on average,
across any 48 hours.
We also lose
well he started it out within the past 48 hours the USA horrifically lost 34 people to mass shootings
then he goes on to say or typed in his tweet on average across any 48 hours we also lose
and he lists five things 500 to medical errors 300 to the flu 250 to suicide 200 to car accidents 40 to homicide
via handgun.
Often our emotions respond
more to spectacle than to data.
Whoa!
I saw that and it was like,
okay, thanks, Neil.
Appreciate it.
You didn't mention the
suicide.
You mentioned 250 to suicide.
You failed to throw in, you know,
at least 22 of those a day are veterans.
And,
it was funny.
I was some medical errors,
flu, suicide, car accidents,
Homicide via handgun.
There's no mention of abortion in there anywhere on your little list either there, Neil.
So he's, you know, I know he's trying.
He's trying.
But apparently many people all wound up at Neil.
Oh, my gosh.
How dare you?
How dare you?
Now, you read that and you think,
why would he have to apologize for something like that?
But he felt the need.
Often
my intent
was to offer
objectively true information
that might help shape conversations
and reactions to preventable ways
we die. I miscalculated.
You crying?
Where I miscalculate
was that I genuinely
believe the tweet would be helpful to anyone
trying to save lives in America.
Put a ping of
that.
What I learned from the range of reactions
is that for many people,
some information,
my tweet in particular,
can be true,
but unhelpful,
especially at a time when
many people are either still in shock
or trying to heal
or both.
Shut up.
What are you doing? Neil.
Stop it.
He continues on the other page.
Stop it.
I don't even want, I don't care.
I'm done with him.
But he apologized.
That's an offensive tweet.
Is it?
That's an offensive to Fisher.
How dare he try to bring common sense into the gun debate?
How dare he?
How dare he?
He's the left God when it comes to, you know, the universe and where we come from and the stars and the galaxies.
How dare he bring some common sense?
and basically say that, you know, why you were, if you, and like I said, put a pen on
when he says, if you really care about the death in America, why are you focusing on that?
Because I believe that this show is going to bring some eyes to a new problem.
Then I don't think it's gun control.
I play the music.
He continued, if you are one of those people, I apologize for not knowing in advance
what effect my tweet could have on you.
I am therefore thankful for the candor and depth of critical reactions shared in my Twitter feed.
As an educator, I personally value knowing with precision and accuracy what reaction, anything that I say or write, will instill in my audience.
Then I got this one wrong.
No, you didn't, Neil. You didn't get it wrong, buddy. You didn't get it wrong.
And all the dingleberries that are beating you up over it, they need to be get over it.
I know they won't. I know they won't.
I wonder if the dingleberries would get over, though, really.
What we need to have a conversation about in this country and in this world is mosquitoes.
I'm sorry?
This is mosquitoes?
We need to have, we soon.
We need to have a common sense legislation and a conversation about mosquitoes.
Mosquitoes.
Last year.
The little guys that, you know, that suck you blood and.
It's you.
Last year,
mosquitoes killed 850,000 people.
Now, the annual average hovers around 2 million.
So last year, you know,
last year went down a little.
No, we went down a little.
I'm sorry, they killed two.
And average is about 2 million a year.
2 million humans.
Yeah, but how many guns kill people?
Oh, man.
Six billion.
Thank you.
There are 110.
trillion mosquitoes stalking the world at this very moment.
They harbor at least 15 lethal diseases.
The most deadly are the toxic twin of malaria and yellow fever.
But mosquitoes also transmit other lethal viruses like West Nile and Zika.
Worms and parasites.
Sorry, did you fall asleep or something?
That's not that important.
West Nile.
And Zika?
That's eradicated.
Not according to this.
But this is why we need to have a conversation.
A conversation.
A strong conversation.
A serious legislation on mosquito.
And if you think about yourself, and I look, I know Neil gave you a little list about, you know, the way other people die, you know, within a 48-hour period.
But I want to talk about the average number of deaths worldwide caused by different.
beings.
Okay.
Okay.
So, 10 people die every year by wolves.
What did you start?
By wolves.
Ten people die every year by sharks.
You start with wolves and sharks?
What is this?
I'm telling you how many humans die at the hands of other beings.
Okay.
And your first one was wolves.
At 10.
Okay.
At least 10.
At least 10.
And at least 10.
from sharks.
And all those are from Florida, by the way.
100 people die.
Lions.
Wow.
Right?
That's all part in Africa area.
Another one.
Well, we don't know what kind of lions they're talking about.
Another 100 people die.
Every year.
Could track of these numbers?
Yes, you should.
Okay.
You should write these down.
By elephants.
Elephants.
Elephants kill 100 people.
Yeah.
That's in Africa too.
500 people are killed every year by hippopotamus's.
I'm sorry?
By hippos.
The hippos are killing 500 people a year.
Well, they are kind of mean.
The hippos are mean.
Nasty.
Yeah.
They're not nasty.
Calm down.
A thousand.
Yeah, hippos are not nasty.
Yeah, they are.
No, they're not.
Oh, they are some nasty beings.
How are they're nasty?
If you throw, you ever try to feed them and you throw them like a head of cabbage or
something?
That's like they're pissed because that's all you gave them.
They always want more.
And that's nasty?
There's nasty animals.
500 people killed by hip-ups.
That's part of Africa.
It seems like a lot.
That's part of in Africa.
A thousand people.
Okay, now we're doing thousands.
Okay.
Are killed each year by crocodiles.
Yeah, those are in Kissimmee area.
Gatorland.
No.
No, my friend.
No.
Do not start bad mouth of Gatorland.
I'm not bad about thinking of Gatorland.
Come to Gatorland and be one of the 1,000 people that die from crocodiles.
You tell me that's not a tourist attraction right there?
It is, but Gatorland doesn't do that.
It's Gatorland.
It's not crocodile land.
True.
Well, you do have crocs there, but it still is Gatorland.
It's an overwhelming percentage of Gator is not crocodile.
10,000 people, 10,000 people every year die because of Tietzzi flies.
The what?
Tietzzi flies.
What are those?
When you get them, you know.
If I get them, I'm going to die.
You get them.
You get them, you know it.
I was like the horse flies?
When you look down, do you see a TZE fly crawling on you, man?
Where are they in trouble?
Hold on.
You are in trouble.
25 that I'm not holding on.
We're moving down the list.
We'll come back to Tizi flies.
25,000 people die every year because of sand flies.
You don't want to get sand flies.
No, you don't want to get neither of those.
You get Titi flies and sand flies, man.
Who do you flies were dangerous?
Oof, man.
Well, I mean, these Tizi flies and sand flies.
Bad stuff.
Did you get the Tizi flies yet?
Yeah, it's from Africa.
Of course it is.
And when you wake up and you've got Titi flies crawling all over you, what do you do you do?
Is there a cream?
Is there a shampoo?
Is there something?
Is there something somebody could call?
That's interesting.
1-800 T-C-fly.
50,000.
We're up to 50,000.
We've jumped.
We've jumped to 50,000.
From 25, right?
From 25,000, yeah.
So we doubled up.
Sandflies are worse than Tici flies, man.
You know what to say?
I know, I'm looking at sand flies, man.
They look like mosquitoes.
Dasty.
But they're not.
But they're not.
Not even close.
Yeah, no.
50,000 people every year die at the hands,
and they don't really have.
fans of snakes.
Wow.
Of snakes.
Snakes are killing 50,000 people a year.
That has to be in Africa.
Amazing.
Though it does not.
It has to be.
Snakes are all over the world.
I don't think so.
I don't think.
Snakes are all over the world.
Humans.
Humans now.
Okay, so humans.
So we were at 50.
Kill 475,000 a year.
Globally.
Globally.
And that's the average.
It's average.
It had to be in Africa.
What?
No, no, no, that's not enough yet.
That's in America.
Now, according to, according to every gun control people, those 400,000 people, all died in America.
And between Florida, Vegas, Texas, Ohio, I don't know where else, California.
They were all at a mall.
Yes.
No, they were all at Walmart.
Yeah, Walmart's the new bad guy.
Yeah.
Oh.
So, don't forget this all started.
because we need to have a common sense legislation.
We need to have a strong conversation about mosquitoes.
We'll begin the conversation.
That's the beginning because we don't have a conversation about mosquitoes.
Thank you.
Now, all of these animals and humans,
that's what you see,
how many humans get killed by them every year.
I already told you.
Last year, 850,000 people,
but they average 2 million people a year
die at the hands of them.
of mosquitoes or
you know,
their sticker.
They don't really have hands.
Well, they do have hands.
Oh, well.
They do have hands.
Well, those are, you know,
bug legs.
Yeah, exactly.
They still have legs.
I'm just saying.
That's a lot of people.
I'm just saying.
Maybe we ought to be a little bit more concerned
about
mosquitoes.
Well, not just,
and if you go back to what
Neil de Grassy chicken guy said,
was if you are concerned about life.
Yes.
If you're in this study.
Thank you.
If you're in this study has nothing to do with what just happened over the weekend.
But if we're concerned about American life and life overall, let's go by the numbers and let's start prioritizing.
Thank you.
Because even on that list, humans killing humans, it's only 450,000.
Yes.
$475,000.
Oh, 475,000.
Don't under,
I'm not, I'm not.
And yes,
it's a serious number.
But mosquitoes are killing us by the millions.
Thank you.
Literally by the millions.
Now,
if you're concerned that you,
you don't want to become part of the $850,000 to $2 million.
Is there another number?
Can I call a number?
There is.
Or you can just, you know,
pregnant women suffer twice as many bites
because they have a slightly higher body temperature.
So they smell nice?
I guess, I guess so.
They smell sweet?
That's one way.
They, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the
people who the, the, people who have excess amounts of lactic acid, uric acid, and ammonia, also have the bad luck of
being more attractive to mosquitoes.
Just so last week, acid is bad for you.
Mosquitoes prefer people with blood type O.
Oh, oh, I'm a,
I'm B positive.
They are bitten twice as much as those with type A.
Type B falls in between the two.
All right.
Which one are you?
I have no idea what my blood type is.
Who knows what their blood type is?
I just said, nobody knows.
B positive is mine.
My wife is an L.
My son is A-B.
So stupid, nobody knows what their blood type is.
I just give you three people of my life.
So another mosquito aphrodisiac,
stinky feet.
Oh, Jeffie.
So clean up those smelly feet, baby.
Why would you mean, who, Jeffie?
I mean, like, that's very interesting, Jeffie.
Yeah.
Can you smell my feet and you're not telling me or something?
Is it a problem?
I'm in a different room.
Unfortunately, wait a minute.
Now, okay, so stinky feet.
I got stinky feet problem.
And now we've got being too clean is also a risk factor.
Why?
Mosquitoes love the smell of deer.
Theodorants, perfume, soaps, and other fragrances.
Makes sense.
It smells nice.
Yeah.
Makes sense.
So you want to be in the middle between stinky and clean.
So mediocre.
Correct.
Or you just want to maybe just roll in the mud.
Well, don't shower every day.
So you just shower maybe every other day.
Maybe.
Maybe.
And don't use a bunch of your fragrances.
And the odorant, use that every three days.
Perfume once a month.
Soap.
Every other bath.
finally studies have also shown that mosquitoes prefer beer drinkers
makes sense
that yeast inside that beer yeah
so if you are if you have anything
so if you're a pregnant woman that likes to drink beer
and has stinky feet
with blood type oh you're doom
you should just jump up a bridge or something
or don't go outside one or the other
I mean, you can decide to maybe not go where mosquitoes are.
Well, you can't, you can't.
That's not possible.
Mosquitoes are everywhere.
Don't you get a mosquito inside your house?
Actually, they're not everywhere.
Where are they not?
They're not everywhere.
Where are they not?
In the story, there was telling me where they were out.
Antarctica and France.
Oh, yeah, Antarctica.
Oh, Antarctica?
Uh-huh.
Polynesian Islands outside the range of,
wow, the French Polynesian Islands are not.
either that's interesting that there is there a number to call yeah why would they not be
at the apologies island i don't know maybe is that where the uh cruise is going because i could just
find out i could just find out oh the cruise is going to go someplace else oh it's not going there
come sailorway dot com so here's a good way to scam amazon which you're not going to be
able to do now because this kid already pulled it off this kid this 22 year old
22 year old from spain right so he'd order stuff from amazon christ you know he had probably had
stuff coming to his house as much as you okay he scammed amazon for about 370,000
worth of merchandise wow that's pretty that's a lot right so he ordered the merchandise
whatever it well you know you order a tv a DVD player whatever you get from amazon
And then he would send it back for a refund.
He would send the box back for a refund.
Okay.
Now, because according to, you know, Amazon, you can return anything within 30 days every seat.
Yeah, 30 days, yeah.
Refunds are processed in two business days.
Customers can expect their funds to show in their account in three to five business days.
All right.
Okay.
So let's say you ordered a DVD player.
Okay.
All right.
Whatever.
Whatever was right.
I'm just picking a product, DVD player.
Okay.
All right.
So you get it, you open it up, you take the DVD player, you weigh it.
You weigh the package.
Take the DVD player out.
You fill it up with dirt to the amount of weight.
Tape it back up, send it back and get a refund.
So now you're getting a refund on the package because it weighs the same.
That's all Amazon.
was doing was weighing the packages. I find this really hard to believe and I'm sure they've
up their game on this. Okay. Because in the story they talk about how they didn't go through the
returns on a regular basis. Like they'd get the returns and just toss them into a corner.
Makes sense. You know, they're a big corporation. Does it? Yes. That's a lot of money. No way.
No way. That should be. No, it does not make sense. You do a spot check. That's an oversight that
No, no, no.
Jeffrey, you cannot open every return box that is coming to you.
You absolutely can.
No, you cannot.
You're absolutely can.
If you're running a tight business, you're absolutely can.
If you're wasting time on opening every return, you've been an idiot.
No, you're not.
That's money that goes, you put it back in there so other people purchase it.
No.
Yes.
Because what you're doing, you're just selling those boxes and just sell them to the next person.
Why?
Why are you having in there have Mr. Little Steve guy with a box cutter?
Oh yeah, I got the Sony DVD player here.
What do I do?
Oh, I'll close it back up again.
Okay.
No.
You weigh, oh, wait, it's 5.5 pounds.
Okay, next.
You're not open.
I'm sorry, you're not opening that box.
So, little, what's his name?
A little Tim.
Little Tim, Steve, I thought it was Steve.
Smith, Smith.
So he happened to open up one and was full of dirt.
I mean,
The first answer is that's why I return it to you because you sent me a box of dirt,
bastards.
Little Steve.
Right.
I mean little Steve, Tim, whatever your name is.
Smith.
Return person that's over there in the corner, not, should be opening those return boxes anyway.
You should not be opening it.
Because there's no reason to open return boxes.
There is.
You don't want the product that's in the return boxes.
You have millions of boxes coming back to you.
Why?
It's a waste of time.
No, it is.
It is.
No, it is not a waste of time.
That product needs to be getting back out there.
It makes no sense as a distributor for me to open every single box that I get from a return.
It makes no sense.
Is you just throw it in a corner then?
You throw in a corner.
Toss in a corner.
Don't worry about it.
Millions of dollars worth of returns.
Who cares?
Absolutely.
I mean, you know how much money Bezos is losing?
I mean, he could go broke tomorrow.
Who is best?
I think he's getting like $33 million a second.
You could go broker at any time.
Just because the returns are sitting in the quarter.
Collecting dust.
And you know why he's making $33 million a second?
I know you're probably going to tell me
because he's not worried about the returns.
Because he's not worried about those returns.
Give him the freaking, it's $20.
Give him the $20.
Probably this stupid kid, he's got too greedy.
Well, $370,000.
He wanted to open a business.
He needed enough money to open his business.
And he did.
But now he's been arrested.
Oh.
Yeah. Good luck, God bless.
I mean, Jeff should just let him go.
Yeah.
Yeah, look, get out of here.
Yeah, I bet you he's not the first one to do it.
I bet you got at least, at least minimum of 10 people.
He learned it from somebody else.
Right.
He learned it from somebody.
There's no way that this kid was, you know what?
Let me go buy a weight, buy some sand and a box.
Oh, no, wait.
I get the box from them.
All right, 5.2 ounces.
send the back in.
And they didn't say it was sand.
He was just dirty.
He was digging a hole in the backyard.
$370 grand.
He's got a hole in the backyard.
Damn, that's a big ass hole in the backyard.
Big time.
But mom is piss.
And speaking of, oh, yeah.
Timmy, why is there a hole back here?
I don't worry about it.
Yeah, you like the new stuff I bought for the house, don't you?
Yeah, thank you.
Yeah, but I got holes in the backyard.
It's holes in the room.
It's holes in the room.
That's what that guy is doing.
That's what they're doing in Mississippi.
They're ripping off Amazon.
So another crime story over the weekend.
Duane the dog Chapman.
I'm sorry, Dwayne Dogg Chapman.
You know, Dog the Bounty Hunter.
I was going to say, why are you giving his name?
He's in his dog, the bounty hunter.
That's his name.
Just like people know he's Jeff.
You know that's Jeffrey.
So he's Dog the Bounty Hunter.
Okay.
Seriously, you pissed me off with the packages.
because that's just a waste of money in the corner.
They're just sitting in the corner.
Jeffy.
See, this is why you'll never be Jeff Bezos
because you're focusing on your returns.
You got to go through that stuff.
No, you don't.
No, you don't.
Yes, you do.
That's a loss.
You just write that off.
You're writing those off.
There's no way.
And why is the guy opening it up
with this random check?
Why is he doing?
Because he's being an a hole.
Oh, let me see this.
You know what?
He was about to steal what it was in that box.
So that employee needs to be fired
because he was going to steal it
and put something.
something else in there. That's probably what was going to have one too. I want a background search
on this guy. Check his bank account because I bet you he's been doing that he's been doing it
but look at this one's got dirt in it. What the hell? To himself a DVD player just promised a guy in the
backyard. The smart Amazon thief would have just closed it back up and not said a word because now
you know what they're going to be doing right now you got half quarters the spot checks on all the
returns. Not just that headquarters are going to come down and do an audit and that audit
If I have 55 boxes in there, I expect to see 55 boxes.
And guess what, buddy?
You're going to be opening all those boxes that you sold the crap to the deal in the backyard.
So now you screw yourself for talented on this guy.
You see why I say you can't open that box.
Once you open that box, you open the Pandora's box.
And now you have to find out, okay.
So now there's an investigation.
All right.
So now this employee, he's not the first employee to do that.
So now you're freaking just knocking everybody down.
That's so you don't open boxes.
He's, okay.
Throw it in a corner.
Throw it in a corner.
Throw it in a corner.
Let the kid from Spain have his 370,000.
Yep.
Shut up about it.
Because while he was taking the 370,000,
I don't know if you know this or not,
but Jeff Bezos is becoming the richest man on the planet.
So the kid from Spain,
the 22-year-old from Spain,
really didn't have an effect on Mr. Bezos's income.
At all.
33 million dollars?
$33 million a second that Jeff.
If they're still coming in.
Still coming in, baby.
Even them.
Just toss them in the corner.
That's what you had to do.
That's all you had to do.
Little Tim.
That's what you had to do.
So anyway, back to Dog the Bounty Hunter
because he's, they had some problems this weekend too.
Yeah, his wife passed away.
That was a while ago now.
It was like two or three weeks ago or something.
It's so long ago.
Don't dismiss that?
It's so long ago now you think he'd be moved on.
It's so sad.
And the new TV show that comes out?
It wasn't that long ago.
It was like two weeks.
I think it's two weeks.
No, it had to have been like three or four, I bet.
Okay.
Look it up.
Okay.
But what's sad about it?
You just want to toss her in the corner.
You just want to forget about her.
You don't even want to look it up.
No.
That's how much you don't care.
No, I do care because what's sad is the new TV show's about to come out.
I bet it says so in the story.
Hold on the new TV show.
And she's part of that TV show.
They finish recording and everything.
So I wonder how they're going to deal with that.
A memorial of Beth, who died at June.
June.
Yeah, two weeks ago.
So anyway, apparently, like I'm not a.
And if you listen to this in December, it doesn't matter.
It doesn't matter.
So.
But she did a couple weeks.
I was under the impression.
And I'm not a big watcher of dog the bounty owner that the, you know, they're based in Hawaii.
Yes.
They're, they started in Hawaii, but they have their family ranch, you know, um, just let you know, um, people are allowed to have two living places, you know, like they're.
Not if you're doing a, not if you're doing a reality show in Hawaii.
That's where you ever think.
Yes, but sometimes they go, I don't know, jump over the pond, go to the mainland, Colorado,
and they film some stuff over there too.
Huh.
You know, it's okay to do that.
So the official dog and Beth merchandise store is in Colorado.
Robbed.
Good luck, God bless.
I'm sorry, they robbed the dog.
They robbed the dog and Beth merchandise store.
Not only did the thieves take thousands of dollars of clothing.
they took priceless personal belongings of Beth including tributes to her tributes left by fans
do they know who they're messing with they do they will soon this is dog Dwayne
Chapman we're working with our friends in law enforcement to find these perpetrators
and are offering a cash reward to anyone who provides information about their identity
but dog has vowed to find out who committed this crime
and he's also quoted as saying,
you better watch out.
I'm coming for you.
Yeah.
Her hunting gear was ransacked,
priceless family momentos.
Good luck.
God bless, man.
What are you?
Right?
You don't do that.
I hope the cameras capture.
his comment and added to the new season.
The season two out there.
I believe the new season promo is out now.
Oh, it is?
Yeah, they cut a new one this weekend after the robbery.
Yeah, they cut a new one this weekend.
You didn't hear it?
No.
No, it's just right here.
I don't know who you are.
I don't know what you want.
If you are looking for ransom, I can tell you I don't have money.
But what I do have,
are a very particular set of skills.
And he does.
Skills I have acquired over a very long career.
Skills that make me a nightmare for people like you.
Think about it.
If you let my daughter go now, that'll be the end of it.
I was talking about Bethy.
I will not look for you.
So shook up, he forgot about it.
I will not pursue you.
But if you don't, I will look for you.
I will find you.
And I will kill you.
It's time for us to go to the break room.
to drink a Coca-Cola zero sugar.
As long as we're in the break room,
let's find out how the big event over the weekend went
in the hole of Jacksonville, Florida.
It's still a hole.
It's still a hole?
So our man Tim,
with his entourage and I don't know how many people
showed up at Taco Bell.
I mean, it must have been...
Just one.
Taco Bell must have been overwhelmed.
I hope they could handle the business.
But...
Yeah, I mean, I know Tim was only one, but I mean, with you, with you and Tim and, you know, his entourage and, you know, so, I mean, you can't even count as many people.
You can't.
There wasn't, you couldn't even tell how many people were at the, yeah, one.
Or at the Taco Bell.
It was me, Tim, my dad.
And Taco Bell, you said handled the, handled the onslaught of people showing up because we didn't talk to them about the possibility.
They were not even upset about it.
Really?
Yeah.
They were like, oh, thank you.
you.
Huh, weird.
They were a little more sad about it when I took the picture and the sign because I was
stopping the drive-thru.
My dad wasn't in the middle of the drive-thru trying to take the picture.
And the people were honking.
I was like, hold on.
Shut up. We got a picture.
Calm down.
And, you know, that happened.
But it was a fun time.
I tell you this, I would not tell him to his face.
Because when he presented his case, a suit intimidated, he's a little tall guy, buffed,
works out every day.
There's not a lot of us around anymore.
No, absolutely.
He's very really, he loves the gym when I say long.
So when he said, this is not a asshole.
Tim, I'm with you, man.
I am with the love of gyms.
When he sat down with his tray of tacos and he said, I just got out of the gym, so I'm hungry.
I'm going to eat this.
I'm like, okay, cool.
And he said he's got, you know, the list of why Jacksonville is not an, you know, asshole.
He can't prepare too?
He can prepare.
I love it.
Oh, Tim, that's fantastic.
Thank you.
I want to say it's still an asshole.
Did you take a picture of the list of that?
the list? No, I did not. I did not. I did not take
so we could share the list on the
it was a me and him moment. It was he changed my mind.
But this was for the first stop. This was
for the show. This was for the show.
Yeah, but you. It was a me and him event.
See, this is where I think you're getting a little
confused in your life, my friend.
Yeah. But I couldn't say, I was like, okay,
because he looked very, uh, um, threatening.
He was, he came, he came prepared. I can't,
I just saw
overdress
for the event
I saw the picture
yeah you look great
I don't really
over you know
I even forgot to put my hat on
I left it in the car
because that
well that would have wanted me over
with the look
if you had the hat
on come on man
because I mean
there's nothing like going to
Florida with sweatpants
it was hot too
it was super hot
I don't know
maybe put some shorts on
I have shorts
I don't know
when I'm only there
for
from Saturday night
yeah
from yeah
no Friday night
to Sunday morning, I only bring two pairs of clothes.
The one that I came in from the airplane and pajamas.
And then I put the back on when I get to the plane and Sunday we were done.
That's what's wrong with America.
They'll tell you that right now.
That's what's wrong with America.
People have no respect for flying or staying.
Actually, speaking of that, funny you said because when I was in the airport in Orlando,
and this guy was like suit, jacket, tie, hat, briefcase.
I was like
sweatpants,
t-shirt and sandals.
You can't be more comfortable than that.
What's wrong with America?
You can't be more comfortable.
How?
Can be comfortable.
Still not look like a slub,
but.
But no one is looking.
And there are people that look, yeah.
Yeah, you, but you weren't there.
Care about that.
So Tim did not win you over with the list,
so Jacksonville's still a hole.
And on his face, he did.
Like, if he's right,
here in front of me, I was like, yes, Jacksonville
is the greatest city in the United States.
But now that I'm, you know, thousands
of miles away, that's a still-sett.
And all I did was like, look around.
Tim,
I'm on your side, bud.
Are you?
I am.
Are you?
Jacksonville, you know, I usually don't,
like, I told you, I already apologize to him
for calling Jacksonville a hole.
And, you know what I mean?
I don't really like, I'm not big on apologies.
You're not, you just freaking upset the chicken boy,
you know, apologize.
Thank you.
And now I'm going to apologize again.
I apologize, Tim.
You were right.
Jacksonville is not a whole.
If you,
if Chris is too scared and too whiny to even say something to you to your face,
that's you have just.
Oh, by the way,
I put the receipt on the table.
I sent the first tacos on me.
Yeah, exactly.
That's the whole receipt.
I don't care about that.
Okay, then just give you the $1.99 for the taco.
I get you after the show.
I'm definitely taking that out of the podcast.
There's no way I'm having that come out
through the radio speakers of our listeners.
Are you sh-h-hitting me right now?
Dude, that's so gross.
I hope you're going to wipe that microphone
for Pat Gray in the morning.
Are you wiping it?
Let's talk about...
Thank you.
Happy?
Yes.
Actually, next time, do it with gloves.
Yeah, I don't have any gloves.
All right, let's do some fast food stories real quick.
Quick fast food.
Let's do some fast, fast food.
Oh, here we go.
Fast food.
McDonald's worker fired after refusing to serve paramedics because they were in uniform.
Do we believe it?
I believe this one because there's a lot of evidence and there's a lot of statements
and the local news picked this up and they were there like on the fly.
So I believe it.
So the paramedics go into McDonald's and said that the worker at McDonald's,
hey, we don't accept officers in here.
Really?
Punk, just give me my double cheeseburger.
Shut up.
I would swap my number five, okay?
And that is?
So then he, I don't know.
I don't know.
It's a crispy sandwich.
The Krispy Bealty.
Whatever.
No, I don't know.
No, I don't know the McDonald's menu.
I don't.
What's on number three?
I don't.
A double quarter pounder.
I don't know.
Come, well, you got to know what's the number one.
What's the number one?
Probably a big Mac.
Yeah, there you go.
And then number two?
You're going to upsize that quarter pounder.
There you go.
Number three.
Number three, you just, yeah, the double quarter pounder.
Number four used to move the big and tasty.
Remember the being tasty from McDonald's?
I do, yeah.
And then number five, what's the crispy is the crispish you sandwich?
What's the fish sandwich?
Seven or eight?
Ten.
Okay.
Number ten is a fish sandwich.
I knew it was down a way.
Yeah.
Oh, yeah.
I do know it was otherwise.
So I know a little bit of the matter.
I know you know.
I know you know.
You can't play the...
I don't know the menu.
I know you know.
So don't give me that.
It's like you know where Walmart is
and everything that Walmart is.
You know that.
Like the milk is in the back.
I didn't know that.
And stop looking at the camera.
Why do you look at the camera?
You can't help it.
Yes, you can.
I can't help.
So anyway.
this is what kind of makes me think that
you know the kid's not too bright
so maybe McDonald's needs to rethink their hiring process
oh they have to for sure
because we don't accept officers in here
and the paramedics said
I even explained to the kid
we're paramedics
we're not police officers
mw maw maw maw
anyone with the badge then
anyone with the badge we don't serve anybody with
badge and uh i just want my double cheeseburger bro now according to this what it also said that he
said his partner entered a few minutes later and was told we don't serve your kind in here wow
oh so when i took out the badge and they walked back in that's what i would have done right i would
gone back into this was in madeira beach florida i used to live at madera beach florida i thought
you lived in jacksonville when i moved no i never lived in jacksonville but when i first moved in jacksonville
I don't know if I ever.
Oh, Tampa.
Sorry, sorry.
I don't like to talk about it much, but I lived in Florida.
See, I knew you lived in Florida, but I thought you lived in Tampa.
Tampa Bay.
Yeah.
I don't know if you know that, but Jacksonville is quite a ways away from Tampa Bay.
I know.
If you look at the state.
I mean, asshole city is.
Tampa Bay is on the west coast of the east coast of North America.
We've talked about that, yes.
Jacksonville is actually on the east coast of the East Coast of North America.
It was a mistake because we've been talking about Jacksonville was this entire show.
And on Saturday, I was on Jacksonville.
So it was a mistake, an honest mistake.
But I thought you lived in Tampa.
Where the hell this Merri Beach is?
Madeira Beach.
It's just, it's right there.
It's in Tampa Bay.
So you live in Tampa?
It's in the Gulf of Mexico.
It's not Madeira Beach.
It's Pinellas County.
Okay, which is part of Tampa.
Tampa Bay is in, Tampa is in Hillsborough County.
But Pinellas and Hillsborough, you know, creates Tampa Bay.
So you lived in Tampa?
Okay, I'm sorry.
You lived in Tampa Bay.
But when I first moved to Florida, I lived in Tampa Bay.
down right on Madeer Beach. Nice.
I mean, I lived on Madeer. I love Madeer Beach.
In fact, I had a little one-bedroom apartment right there on the public-access
beach.
I was living large, man.
Had no money.
I was broke.
Public access beach?
Is that like NPR?
Yes.
Is that the NPR of the beaches?
Yes, it is.
Yes, it is. Yes.
It's exactly what it is.
Nice.
So you just open up the piece of crap door to your one-bedroom apartment and you can look
out to the ocean.
There's a Gulf of Mexico.
Nice.
How much was that running?
Whatever it was.
it was too much for at the time, I'll tell you that.
I'll tell you that.
And then when I first moved there,
I lived on the couch of that one bedroom apartment because
Is that when you moved in with the girl?
Well, the girl moved in with the girl.
Well, the girl and the guy.
And the guy, yeah, yeah.
Yeah, they were living.
They slept in the bedroom.
I slept on the couch, bro.
I know.
I know stories about that.
You had some good stories.
So that's where that happened?
Is that what the cat?
Is that what happened with a cat too?
Don't get me started.
No, no, but no, I just want you to answer.
No, that was another one.
Oh, that was another one.
That was not with a cat.
Same guy.
Same guy, though.
Same guy, different apartment.
Yeah.
But did the guy had the cat when he was living there?
No, not on Madere Beach.
Oh, okay.
He just got the cat when we moved.
We moved into the apartment.
That's when the cat came up.
That was in actually St. Petersburg.
I was still in Pinellas County.
You know, still not far.
So did he replace the woman with a cat?
Is that what happened?
And thank God for it.
Oh, really?
Thank God for it.
I really wish you don't see that stuff about the cat.
cat because I love that cat story.
Thank God.
For which one was the cat story?
The cat said when, you know,
ate all your powdered sugar.
Oh yeah, that was the same cat.
He was the same cat that used to jump up around the bird cage.
Because we had a little bird.
We had a bird.
Okay, hold on.
What's your history with birds?
You have this bird and then you, didn't you kill a,
you and Max kill a bird?
Oh, yeah.
No, Max and I did.
No, the bird did.
I've killed a bunch of birds, but the one bird.
But the one that we know that you was time.
The first bird that I killed was with the lady that was in charge of the bird people in Pinellas County, Florida.
It was up, right?
Yeah.
Peek to the sky.
Yeah.
Peek to the sky.
Yeah.
I wrapped it in foil, put it in the freezer.
Yes.
So that was in the beach?
No.
Oh, okay.
That was way after.
Oh, okay.
That was long after, yeah.
So this I had a little bird and the cat used to jump up and wrap around the bird cage.
Cats did that.
And the bird would just go mad.
crazy. I don't understand why.
The bird would just go crazy.
He can't get you, you dumb bird.
The bird doesn't know that.
You're out of cage, you stupid bird.
So that was the bird that escaped.
Oh, so that I was going to ask you.
That was the bird that when I, when we were moving out of that apartment, I was carrying it,
I was carrying the bird cage and the bottom drops, I've carried the bird cage out
to the car.
It's a little circle bird cages, you know, and the bottom drops out, drops off the bird cage.
Now, I'm telling you, it's slow motion, but that bird,
Look down to see that I you know you're still walking as the bottom falls
Yeah bottom falls off the cage so you're just carrying the cage with no bottom and that bird was
sitting in there and it was like look down and he then he looked at me and he was like
F you and he dropped down he dropped down out of that cage wingspan did not look back bro
didn't look back gone that he was gone well that cat was about to eat
He gave me one look, one look of F you, bro.
I'm out and dropped down and he was gone.
What did you do with a cage?
You just threw it away?
I mean, what are you going to do?
Keep it for a new bird?
Nah.
Don't get you in the powdered donut incident was after?
No, that was before that.
Before that?
Yeah, that was before that.
That damn cat, the powdered donuts, man.
I told you, you can't leave sweets with the cats.
So, I know, I was so mad.
You can't.
They'll turn to Garfield.
I just looked at him under the table.
All wide-eyed and freaked out because he's got this.
It just had sugar.
How much ton of sugar did it have?
How many boxes of powdered donuts that you have in there?
Because were you, I don't think you were this big back in there, were you?
Not then.
No.
Okay, so you, what, a box?
I had zero money.
Mm-hmm.
I was walking everywhere.
Oh, that will do it.
Bro.
And you were, yeah, and the powdered donuts were helping you.
Yes, they were.
Yes, they were.
And for those of you wondering if he's actually talking about powder donuts,
the answer is no.
Now, should we move on?
I think they know that.
Really?
I don't know.
Who we're talking to and who we're talking about and whose past our bringing up?
So, Chick-fil-A.
We heard last week that it passed.
That it's number one in America's favorite, but it was only, it wasn't, it's been number one for, for a while, but it passed in customer satisfaction.
The story that came out at the end of last week was in customer satisfaction, it's finally number one.
So it finally beat out in and out burger on the West Coast.
And so, I mean, that's good for them.
I mean, of course they will.
If you think about it, Chick-fil-A is number two.
bringing in money because
you don't count Starbucks. Starbucks
and a Sinoffa fast food restaurant. I don't understand.
That's on the list and I don't understand why it's up.
For those of you, they want to be fully informed.
It goes McDonald's Starbucks and
a fast food restaurant. So
Chick-fil-It takes number two in my book.
Now they're number one of customer satisfaction
of the East Coast
and West Coast. Good for them.
So and they're only open Monday to
but if you think about it, when you walk into a Chick-fil-A,
the atmosphere is popping.
Always.
And they know how to hire the people that work.
Well, they train them.
They not only know how to hire, but they do, they train.
They spend time training their employees.
And in order to be, in order to be a manager at a Chick-Fill, you got to get a passers
recommendation.
So.
So much for me having that job, huh?
Oh, no, you can, Jeffie.
I think the Chick-Fill burnt to the ground when they say, here's Jeff Fisher.
So now we have, like I need a job,
but don't joke around that.
Chick-fil-A, I might need a job someday.
All I'm saying, an owner of a Chick-fil-A?
Because I think I give you the other soy word chick-fil-A is literally-
Well, that's what I'm getting to.
Oh, yeah, because Chick-fil-A rakes in more than twice the sales of McDonald's per restaurant.
I find that hard to believe.
I don't.
Chick-fil-A makes more than twice in sales of McDonald's per restaurant.
I believe that in 100%.
Wow.
Look at the drive-thru at a Chick-Foulet
compared to a drive-thru at McDonald's.
And every, especially in this neck of the woods
that we live in here in New Texas.
Every chick-fil-A that was built two years ago
instead of this year had one station for a drive-thru?
Those have all been remodeled now.
Yes, they have.
To two.
Amazing.
Absolutely.
And almost every drive-thru now is a must of taking an order outside.
And that just won.
A minimum of four people are outside taking orders.
You have to.
Especially the one right here.
They make it a machine, man.
Oh, and they know.
And by the time you get to that first window, and think about it,
their first window is the money and the food out.
McDonald's has now, I went to McDonald's in the little tour in Florida,
over the weekend.
You did a tour of McDonald's?
Yeah, because my parents, you know,
they're working McDonald's in the Central Florida.
So I went to a new remodel
McDonald's of 2019.
They have,
they're going back to the three windows now.
Oh, wow.
So the first window will always be their pay.
Right.
But then you either go to second window
or the third window to pick up
and the person tells you, hey, third window.
About time.
Third window.
That used to be the old way of McDonald's.
That keeps the machine going, man.
Yep.
Yep.
And then now McDonald's,
McDonald's old, McDonough doesn't have the two ordering, you know, on both sides.
But the problem with this is, it's like,
McDonald's customer service sucks.
They've really tried, but they try hard.
It's the training.
It's all in the training.
I sure I believe it's all about the Bible.
I'm going to go, have been there.
It's about who has, who stands behind God and who doesn't.
I'm just going to put it there.
So.
I'm gonna pull a Steve Day's card right there.
Who stands with God and who doesn't?
I eat it Chick-fil-A.
Of course, I hear the McDonald's too, so...
I'll have to work that one out.
Never mind.
Look the other way.
