Did you happen to see the story where a family in Wisconsin videotaped a package of organic salad on their kitchen counter that had a little frog inside of it?
And the family is freaking out and the brother is trying to blow it off and they take a picture of video of it.
And of course, the company apologized and said, you know, hey, sometimes it happens.
the family.
When you read further into the story,
the family wanted to return their container
of organic salad greens
and the live frog
back to the place of purchase.
But the little amphibian managed to escape.
They got their money back regardless.
But I'm telling you, it's not real.
No way.
If there was a frog in your salad
when you came home,
You're taking it back to the store.
You're not having the amphibian escape.
Oh, did he jump out?
Did he jump out of the salad?
Oh, darn the luck.
And then we're going to complain to the stores about it?
No.
Not real.
Have a sound.
Have a feel.
Are we on there?
We are.
The problem is I need to tilt your microphone a little bit more, you know, 45 degrees.
Hold on.
And then we can hear you a little bit better.
Oh, you get up, yeah.
No, the other way, the other way.
Up.
I know, but I can't hear anything.
Hold on.
Is your volume up?
Yes, dear.
Why do you want to tell this way?
Well, not too far, too far.
Right there.
And then I'll get closer.
Is this your first time in radio?
How's that help my, how's that help the drumming?
No, I need to hear.
you better. I don't care about the drumming.
I don't care about. I'm talking about the
there.
Okay. Sounds a little bit better. It's not as good as the old desk.
Oh, no, no, no. The old desk has a better sound.
Wait, I was supposed to tilt it like this.
There you go. Talking to the microphone like that.
Feels like this your first time doing a podcast.
It is. It is actually. I don't know what I'm doing. I have no idea what I'm doing.
Thanks for listening to a chewing the fat.
Brand new podcast we've never done before.
How's the feel?
Oh, it's fun.
It's fun.
And I appreciate everyone who fixed up the studios for me.
As you can see, those of you watching on the Chewing the Fat Video.
Can't find.
And I can see how pretty it is.
It's really nice.
So listen, it's been like a thousand degrees in the state of Texas.
Fires of hell.
I mean, there are times, I walked into the store the other day, there were piles of humans, just ash.
No.
It was sad. It was sad.
I asked.
Ash evaporated.
No, they were just burned it out.
Wow.
You can still tell that.
So, some of them you can still tell kind of what they look like, but others are just ash.
That's sad.
I know.
So yesterday we had the story of that was making the rounds on the interwebs, on the social
media's at Jeffrey JFR at
Real Chris Cruz
and that's
Twitter and of course you can
follow us on Facebook as well
Jeff Fisher Radio and Instagram Jeff Fisher
Radio or Chris Cruz on
Facebook
whatever
anyway we posted a story about
the setting for your central air conditioning
in your home
now of course utility bills
shoot up during the sun of course they do
that's what happens
I know in Texas
Wait wait wait wait wait wait wait
I just realized that you're looking at both cameras
I know there's one there's one there
What about the people behind you
And what about the people on the other side of you
That one's pointed over that direction
So I got this one in that way
That one is pointing at you too
That's not though
But what about this one
Oh yeah I forgot about that
So you have five cameras around you
I got three that I have to look at them
Yeah so can you give some love to the left audience
the right audience and the center audience.
I've seen you already forgotten about the audience behind you.
You're not looking to one behind you.
This isn't a performance in the round.
This is just people.
Oh.
If you weren't quick enough or didn't have the money,
didn't have the money.
You got those tickets in backstage?
Tough.
Oh, so you just get whatever you can see.
That's why those tickets are cheap back there.
Oh, because you don't even acknowledge them in the back.
Oh, we're not.
I'm not playing to that crowd.
Do you know, I remember a story.
Now you see you sidetracked me.
I remember a story.
my parents, my dad was so mad at a guy.
You remember a guy there, you won't know who this person is,
but Bobby Vinton was an old classic singer.
Yeah, no classic singer, yeah, yeah.
And my folks would go and see concerts at the Strawberry Festival
in Planned City in Florida.
No, in Planned City in Florida.
Okay, Florida.
And they would go see these acts.
You know, they'd get tickets and they were supporters
and they would get early mailing.
Yeah, they'd get early mailing.
Yeah, they'd get early mailing.
You lived in Florida.
You don't know what the strawberry festival is in Plant City?
No, there's other people that listen to this podcast other than Florida.
So I'm helping them out.
And if they don't know what the Strawberry Festival, I mean, it's world-class strawberry festival.
People come from all over the world to the Strawberry Festival.
So they get tickets early and they'd go, and my mom was so excited about going to see Bobby Vinton
because she loved him for years and years and years.
So my dad was happy about getting tickets.
And he got tickets like third row.
You know what I mean?
They're right up front.
That's a good.
Right up front.
He's ready to see Bobby Vinton.
So, now at the Strawberry Festival, they have tickets that you buy.
Now, there's also tickets way back in the stadium seating that you could just get for free.
First come first serve.
When it's full, it's full, it's full.
This is good.
This is good seats.
Well, you know, it's free.
It's free.
You're at the Strawberry Festival.
Hey, somebody, Bobby Vinton's playing.
Yeah, let's go see him.
And you walk into free.
Bobby Vinton comes on stage, walks down the stairs, and does the whole show to the crowd in the back.
to the free crowd.
I thought my dad was,
my dad was about strangled him.
And in fact,
his complaining made them take the stairs away from the stage
at the Strawberry Festival.
I,
you know,
he was so mad he paid top dollar for these tickets
and Bobby Vinton's performing for these.
That's pretty cool though for Bobby.
That's pretty cool.
No,
that's pretty cool from a performer.
That's what you want to do.
Is it?
Yes,
you already got the money.
You already got the money
from the people that are down stairs
and you're trying to get those people
that, you know, did not know you or were like,
ooh, who is this guy?
And then for the future show, they buy tickets.
My father didn't see it that way.
I bet.
He's a fishler.
So, of course, he didn't see it that way.
And he made it very well known to the Starbury Festival people.
And now if you go to the show, I don't know if this way now,
because it's been a, you know, it's been a bunch of years.
But at that point, they took the stairs away.
So the audience of the performer would come out, couldn't leave the stage.
Yeah.
Makes sense.
There you go, Bobby.
Do your little rose song to that
back there to the freebies.
So I don't care about the audience behind me.
That's the whole point of that.
The audience behind.
The cheap audience?
No.
It sounds also free until it gets full?
Right.
Right.
So, I mean, thank them.
Thank you for coming.
I appreciate it.
You're not even going to acknowledge them?
No, thank you for coming.
I put my hands up to them.
Oh, okay.
Thank you for coming.
I appreciate it.
Okay.
I'll turn around.
I'll wave to them.
Hey, how you?
doing yeah but I'm not not doing a show for them okay doing a show for these people and the
people on the other side of the microphone okay those pen top dollars for this radio show slash
podcast do they oh yeah do they have to download the app get a high heart okay go to sound cloud iTunes
Google play music that's top dollar right there but it's it's free I know top dollar
It's wherever you get your podcast, you can just download it for free.
And you pay top dollar, yeah, top dollars.
I mean, your device costs money.
You got a thousand bucks if you have the new iPhone X.
Oof.
Yeah, but I mean.
We all know that this audience is 90% iPhone users.
No.
No, they're not, but that's okay.
There's a big percentage of them.
I'll give you that, huge percentage of them.
But not 90.
Sorry, you're wrong.
You're playing to the cheap seats.
I would say that the Android is a cheap seat.
The number one phone in the world is the cheap seats?
Yes.
No.
Just because it makes it number one, that doesn't make it the expensive one.
How much you pay?
You're the artist that says, I'm making music, but I can't, I don't want to, I don't want to get famous.
Then that would be a sellout.
Yeah, that's what it is.
How much do you pay for your phone?
I don't know.
Exactly.
Because you know I pay way more for my phone than you did for yours.
I don't know.
I have like four or five phones on our bill.
And when I need a new phone, I go in and I get a new phone.
Okay.
It just comes out.
This happens.
You just don't know what you're praying.
It just comes on.
My wife takes care of it and it just happens.
Oh, that's so sweet of her.
I will say that the new studio does have an air conditioning problem right now.
I'm doing the story on apparently they're reading the central air conditioning story
because it is like the fires of hell in here right now.
I know we're in Texas and I stepped over bodies that were just, you know, as I walked into stores this past few days, but I believe that they've...
See, the problem is that there was some construction guys in there, and they left the door open.
When Pat leaves, I close the door, so that always sees it in there.
But they had the doors open the entire time, so that air went out to refrigerate something else.
That's not good.
I know, it's not, but I just reset it and I put it to 60, and it should be good.
So according to the, and we'll get down to about 80 in about an hour.
So it'll be perfect.
It'll be great.
I've got it on 60s.
You'll be cold in there.
Oh, okay.
The only room that gets cold is the stage 19 in this building.
Yeah, that gets to negative 5.
I love that studio, man.
Those that's got three big blowers in it.
That room is tremendous.
Yeah, when Glenn Beck is on and you and Pat are on,
those are the only times that those three blowers turned down.
Tremendous.
If it's like someone like Stu by himself.
Maybe two.
No, he shuts them off.
Oh, he shuts them off?
Yes.
Oh, then I'm not going in there.
It's sad.
You can't go in there with them off.
I know.
Even for like two seconds, you can't go in there for them off.
Okay, sorry.
Consumer Report.
AC, go.
This has been 12 minutes and we have not done anything.
So.
Are you typing everything now?
I am timing everything, yes.
We're the economy.
This story says that you're supposed to leave your thermostat.
at 78 degrees when you're home,
85 degrees when you're at work or away,
and 82 degrees when you're sleeping.
That answer is false.
Are we cavemen?
No?
Are you kidding me?
Incorrect.
First of all, we get stories all the time
that tell us we sleep better
and it's better for our health.
being cool.
We have mattresses
that they sell.
Thank you.
Because they say,
hey,
let me cool down your body
because your body sweats
like a freaking pig
every time you sleep.
And mine,
I don't even have to be sleeping.
Oh yeah,
that's a fascinating work of your body.
Even not sleeping,
you're sweating like a pig.
Yeah, it's just a sweat.
It's part of the deal.
So it's in my DNA.
I just had it checked.
Anyway,
not really,
but sounds good.
People go,
oh, really, okay.
They believe she would say that.
They do.
Yeah.
So, no, not true.
Now, for the most part, I pretty much leave our place at 72.
That's you in there and out there.
Well, you can't turn it up when you're, this is wrong.
When you go away, you're not supposed to turn it up.
It's bad for the furniture.
It's bad for the home.
It's bad for the walls.
It's bad for the whole structure.
Is it?
To fluctuate the temperatures like that?
I mean, look.
Look, am I a professional on that?
No.
But it's true.
It's absolutely true.
Yes, you can't do that to the building like that.
That's bad for it.
Completely bad for it.
The whole house, the whole structure goes to hell.
Like, I keep mine 80 if I'm not there.
What?
75 if I'm home.
Don't you have an animal?
Yes, I do.
Do you care about the animal at all?
Yes, he's fine with...
You have an animal that's supposed to...
First of all, you have an animal.
that's supposed to live in some Arctic temperature
living in your home.
And when you leave,
you let the house become 80 or more
as we're living on the surface of the sun here in northern Texas.
It doesn't go any higher than 80
because it cools,
it would not let it go any above 80.
The AC will kick back in and keep it at 80.
Okay.
And then when I'm home, 75,
when I'm sleeping, 72.
Here's the deal.
I want that AC a lot colder when I come over to visit.
And you've been in my house like three times.
And guess what?
I crank that bad boy down.
I know.
I cranked that for you because I remember we had a little, my wife's aunt.
She's freezing in the corner.
She's like, it's so cold in here.
And I was like, there's a blanket right there.
Oh, well, there's a blanket.
I was like, okay, let me turn it back up.
I was like, blanket.
Thank you.
That's what happens in life.
It's easier to get one.
than it is to get cool.
Absolutely agree.
So here's a quilt for you, Grandma.
Okay?
In the cedar chest over there is a nice big, thick quilt we had made for us.
But the dog is dying.
That's damn near animal cruelty on your part.
But we did our own survey because we believed that these consumer report is completely wrong.
Absolutely completely wrong.
We had about 500 people writing.
Five hundred between me.
my Facebook was 181 and your was like 300 and something.
And I'm sorry, but our audience is...
We like to use the technology called air conditioning.
Thank you.
I mean, it's an amazing thing.
I saw a story where even here in Texas,
the energy companies were saying,
hey, we got to cut back.
People are using a lot of energy.
Are you telling me that a power company in Texas?
where we have like so much energy in here.
And also it's a surprise that it's the surface of the sun this time of year in Texas?
Because I do believe that Texas is closer to the sun.
No, it is not a surprise.
So please don't tell me to turn out.
No, you should be more prepared.
Get more energy.
Thank you.
Buy it from some other state.
And I'm pretty sure Texas doesn't care whether it's from a coal-fired plant or not.
Absolutely not.
It's okay.
That's what I love about California too.
You know, their big deal is their power plants aren't coal-fired.
But when they buy extra power, it comes from coal-fired plants.
Are you sure?
But they're not burning it.
Someone else is burning it.
Stupid.
Right.
So it's okay.
Right.
It's okay.
We're not doing it.
So we're fine.
So we get 73 at night, 76 of the day, 79 when I'm gone.
That's Michelle Baker.
Stacey, we keep the air at 75, and we only run it when it's 85.
higher outside.
Otherwise, we open the windows.
Whoa, whoa, whoa.
Why are you opening windows?
Are you kidding me?
Again, you might not be in Texas.
No, Stacey doesn't live in Texas.
Because if you open the windows in Texas,
there's like a ball of fire
and it burns everything in your house.
It's just go, gone.
I mean, house fires in Texas is because people open the windows.
Yes.
I mean, that's a fact.
That don't even think the Texas.
People that open their windows, seriously,
don't live in Texas.
Yes.
They don't.
And I would say,
I'm almost willing to say
that's true in Florida as well.
Only old people
open their windows in Florida.
That's even questionable.
I mean...
My grandparents,
they turn out the AC,
windows open.
In the winter or not during the summer?
The whole day.
The whole year long.
Yeah, but I mean,
they're from...
True.
We don't have central AC down there.
That is true.
You know what?
I'll take that back.
I'll take it back.
So Thomas says, you used to be 69.
Now that my wife has lost 105 pounds, we keep it at a warm 72.
Well, at first, congratulations.
Congrats, yes.
Good job.
And I understand how your body fluctuates like that.
No, that's not what I.
Yeah, fat people.
That's not why I understand.
Fat people need more air to get cooled off as we spoke, you know, the three big as units in 19.
But I will say.
I will say that.
I will say that.
Jeff Fisher and my boss Glenn Beck.
And when they were all four together,
I thought they brought in like a fourth AC unit.
I would be okay.
Because Pat is the same way Pat loves it cold.
There was only one time that that room has been too cold in my life.
Really?
Yeah, one time.
I don't like to,
I don't necessarily like to talk about it because it sets a bad example.
It says like, ooh, it happened once.
You could happen again.
No, no.
I used to have, when I used to be in that studio every day,
I'd have the security guy turn on, kick on the AC every morning.
I mean, I paid him off.
I gave him an envelope of cash every day.
So you come in and you fire those bad boys up.
I want it cold when I walk in there.
So it was the wintertime here.
It was really cold on, son.
But he was doing what he was paid for, man.
And so Pat and I were filling in for Glenn because it was over the holidays.
You know, it was in December's really cold.
And we came in and by the second hour of the radio show, man.
I looked at Pat.
And I both were like, it is freaking cold in here, man.
And I look up, but all three of them are on, man.
It's like, it's zero outside.
It's like, it is Arctic.
Negative five in here.
Literally Arctic in that studio, man.
I had to have them shut a couple off just to even it out.
Even it out.
Yeah, compared to outside.
By the end of the show, it was, by the end of the show, it would be one glacier had melted.
That was it.
It was so cold in there.
Anyway, the point.
is no no no no that's way too
78 and you cannot sleep at what was the 78 sleep at 78 what you're not
sleeping me no no you're not comfortable you're sweating the best part it's
always easier to cool it's always easier to get warmer than it is to get cooler so right
if the AC is nice and cold you feel a little chill pull up the blanket get under the
Cut up with your hubby or wifey.
Anyway, you could do that if you want.
Or you can just get a blanket.
Those of you listening on the Blaze Radio Network,
thank you very much for coming along for the ride today
and listening to Chewing the Fat with yours truly, Jeff Fisher.
Don't forget you can subscribe any platform
that you download your podcast on.
You can download Chewing the Fat and take me with you wherever you want.
I'm here for you.
Boop.
and when the show gets uploaded,
you'll be alerted.
Here you've got to come to Blaze Radio Network
and you don't know who's working over there anymore.
You don't know who's doing it.
It's me.
The show might be screwed up.
It's me.
You're going to want to be able to hear the whole show.
And you know that there are times when we do chewing the fat
and then we add some dessert to the program as well.
You saw that too, didn't you?
And so you add some extra programming to the,
to the show.
So is that official?
I don't know.
I like it though.
I do too.
I think it was Tim that,
yeah, I think it was Tim
that at.
Well, he thought of it after I thought of it.
I mean, it's...
Oh, you thought about it first.
Yeah, man.
I appreciate him tweeting and everything.
Oh, okay.
Oh, okay.
So this is the main course.
Here, we're serving up the main course
and then later was served up dessert.
Right.
Those of you listening on Blaze Radio Network,
you're eating the main course.
But there's always room for,
well, dessert.
And don't tell me, oh, no, there's not room for dessert.
You know, maybe we call it jello, because the jello segment,
because there's always room for jello.
Right?
I like that, too.
And then wiggles, it goes, it wiggles, too.
Look at that jello.
We also got calls about, I got, uh, got tweets and Facebook posts about, uh, the political
stories, because I did do a couple of political stories yesterday,
and I, normally I've tried to steer away from the political stories.
And so I threw, you know, I did a couple that, you know,
really had to get in there.
So a couple ideas were chewing the swamp when I do political stories.
Chewing the swamp.
So I appreciate that.
I'm glad another one that I thought of just before the person tweeted it to me.
Yeah, but they tweeted and you didn't say anything.
So, right.
So I mean.
So do I give credit to you?
Yeah, we'll give them credit.
Okay.
I just want them to be clear that I thought of it first.
But we'll see.
You know, we'll see.
Those are some of the things.
Good idea.
Thank you.
Yeah, yeah.
No, I know.
I, man, thought long and hard enough.
Did you?
I did.
I did.
Hey, there's some new laws coming to the state of Texas,
and I'm sure there's new laws coming to states all over the United States.
September's usually when they start kicking on.
And so, you know, Texas has got some new laws coming in.
Like kids can legally sell lemonade at stands now.
I know.
This is a good one.
Brass knuckles and other self-defense items will be legal to carry.
Do you consider brass knuckles?
Yes, that's a weapon.
Self-defense weapon?
Yes, I do.
Especially if you go to the bars and strip club, you always go with your brass knuckles.
I don't think brass knuckles are not really self-defense.
How are you going to go?
They're more of an offensive device, at least in my mind.
No, you put it on your pocket.
Guy comes up trying to rape you.
I got what you do with it.
Thank you.
You go to the club, someone trying to get up on you and boom.
Noonker.
You don't care of your knife knuckles around.
Someone just starts to attack you.
You can reach into your pocket and get those brass knuckles right out.
I just wear them open because it.
I think you can open carry them too, right?
Yes.
Those your rings.
Yep.
Yep.
Smoking in the great state of Texas goes up to 21.
Well done, Texas.
No, not well done.
No, not well done.
I'm waiting for the one that says 35.
That's ridiculous.
Even coming from me that you had a heart attack because of smoking.
No, I didn't have a heart.
My heart event was not caused because of smoking.
But you had a heart attack, and the doctor told you that you need to do what?
Lose weight?
Nope.
You didn't tell anything about exercise?
No,
there's anything about that.
Of course,
I mean,
they said,
yeah,
yeah,
you can do that.
But the number one thing
on their list.
Was it,
I don't know,
maybe smoking?
That was the number one thing.
Okay,
then, you know what?
I risk my case.
That was the number one thing
on their list.
But come on now.
If I can go,
if I can fight in the military.
Don't do not give me
that stupid argument.
Why?
What stupid argument?
That is a stupid argument.
If I can fight in the military,
I should be able to smoke
and drink
and do anything else
an adult can do.
If you're going to tell me that I have to be an adult at 18,
then damn it, I get to be an adult.
And make the choice for myself.
It's a good argument, but it's a stupid argument.
If it's a stupid argument, how can it be a good argument?
I mean, confused.
You get ready for beer to go and booze delivery.
We've already done that.
We've already had beer delivered.
Wait, that wasn't legal?
Well, that was legal, but they're talking about the IPA guys,
not like the Corona.
They're talking about the IPA guys.
Okay.
Yeah.
Ooh.
Now, that's set up for, could be some issues.
Yeah, because it's independent brewers.
Could be some issues.
I see that, yes.
I see having issues too, yeah.
But, you know, how much, that's paying off the delivery guy.
And that's also, you know, they're going to have to be
responsible for knowing if a person is 21.
But do you remember what the girl did?
She had to scan my ID card and take a picture of it.
Remember that?
Yeah, that's true.
So it's up to the, you know, all right.
So I mean it's just kind of a good fake idea.
That was mainly used for people around Austin because that's a big thing in Austin.
Yeah, so that was a big thing in Austin.
DPS surcharges for traffic offenses going away in Texas.
Good.
And they should go away in every state.
So in recent years, the Texas Department of Public Safety, and I did not know this, had a policy in place that required motorists convicted of certain traffic offenses to pay an extra fee.
Oh, shut up.
Or a surcharge on top of any fines or penalties.
No.
No.
That's like double dipping.
Thank you.
That's like double jeopardy.
And that's going away.
It's going away.
Bill allowing dogs on restaurant patios.
Okay.
Whatever.
Leave your dog at home.
Yeah, the 80 degree temperature.
Let your dog sweat it out at home.
New law helps drivers with communication issues during traffic stops.
What?
What?
So Texas drivers with autism, deafness, PTSD, and other communication challenges.
Well, I'm one of those PTSD guys.
Yeah, I know you.
Well, you definitely have communication challenges.
will be able to make law enforcement aware
ahead of time.
So I guess you get another special sticker.
Yeah.
You get a special sticker.
I love that.
Or maybe they put that on your license.
I was going to say,
did they put that on your license?
And like, isn't that kind of a little bit of,
I don't know, labeling people?
Like, did it?
You're damn right.
It is.
No, listen, just put a little star on your shirt.
That's what I'm saying.
We'll know.
Do you have a star in your driver's license?
I mean, no, I don't think so.
they put a star of my driver's license
and that meant that I was verified
that I'm a United States citizen
get out
I gotta go check my law
I gotta go check my license
I want you to check your license
I want to because I had to bring in
my social security card
remember that wasn't those issues
yeah yeah so they're saying now that
if you have a gold star
gold star
it means you're a United States citizen
and you know no further screening needs to be done
if you go to TSA or like the
Port of entry, something like that.
I'm a white guy, though, so I don't need a star.
They already know.
Okay, so I went and looked at the driver's license
because I really, I know it was a bad joke
and I got to thinking, wait, what if it doesn't matter
if I'm white and it doesn't?
If you're in America, if the star, you get the star on your license,
that's what that represents, right?
Because we all had stars on our license.
Yes.
The only person in this studios here that didn't have a star
in their license was Ron.
The oldest man in the building.
And his license hadn't been renewed in quite some time.
Now, mine was just renewed this year.
We just had a joke about that you just came in time.
Duh.
Because I had, I mean, I had just moved here from Florida.
So I wanted to get it changed right away.
And I was fortunate enough to make it in time the very last day.
And so, yes, she was, what's a good thing you came in today?
Or we would have to gone through the whole thing.
Really?
I didn't realize.
But anyway, I have a star, so it doesn't matter.
It doesn't matter.
Skin color, any of it, it's all, if you're an American citizen, you get the star.
I mean.
And that was, that came out from the TSA.
So that means that when you go through TSA, it verifies and you have to go through extra screening.
That's special of them.
Because I still go through extra screening with them so they can screw off.
Yes.
Yeah.
Anyway, fortunately, it doesn't take an American citizen to win the lottery.
I got a call.
A couple calls.
this morning and a text asking me if I was the North Texas resident who became a millionaire
with the Texas scratch-off ticket.
No.
No, I don't hold a press conference.
You guys, we're not here for you.
We're not, you know.
No, I know.
That wasn't me.
It wasn't me.
You were misinformed.
You were misinformed.
It wasn't me.
Thanks for coming.
Appreciate it.
But that's enough.
No more questions.
So somebody won a million.
scratch off. Now, I very rarely play a scratch off
in Texas. We do it for fun because my kids like to do it.
And you're the powerful. And they don't do it legally. I mean,
that's just a joke. Only adults. 18 and old. Do I have to be 21
to play lotto? No. Yes.
You should be.
Is it? Do you have to be 21 to play lottery?
You don't though, right? You have to be 18. I can't buy a
freaking cigarettes, but I can win a million dollars in the lottery. That's
what's wrong with America right there.
Is it? Is it? Is it? So you've
compile everything within America
and you nailed it down to
that one issue of not being able to buy
cigarettes until you're 21.
That's what's wrong with America.
And I was reading another lottery story
the other day which I loved because
it was, this is, it's just luck,
right? It's just luck. And I feel
like the other day I went out of my way
to purchase a Powerball ticket because I just felt
like I got to buy one.
It's my time.
It wasn't.
But I felt that way.
But this old guy, this 94-year-old man,
bought some tickets in Oregon.
And he has his children who are, you know, 60s and 70s.
Imagine that.
His daughter says, nope, no winners, Dad.
And throws him on the counter and leaves
because they live in a close proximity to each other.
And so the dad, you know, gets up after a while and says to him,
I think my daughter's an idiot
so I better double check these tickets.
I'm sure that's what he said. Can I quote you on that? Yes.
Okay.
I don't think he said that out loud.
But I could quote you.
But that's what he was thinking.
Because he double checked him.
And she was wrong.
Completely wrong.
It was worth $6.5 million.
What?
Yeah.
She literally threw $6.5 million on the garbage.
He didn't win that.
I mean, he could have just thrown, okay, and throwing him away.
I know.
But instead, he realized, you know what?
My daughter is an.
idiot. I'm going to double check this.
So it's good that he
did. And it's good that he knows his own kids.
That's a 90-old guy that knows these kids. Thank you very
much. And 92, you hit that million?
That's not bad. Not a bad way
to go out. No, 94.
Don't make him a young kid.
He's a young whippersnapper.
So he takes the lump sum.
He gets, oh. Hold on. That's our rule
here. Oh, you have to take it. Our chewing the fat
rule is you take the lump sum.
You do not do this.
It doesn't matter.
The lotters, I'm going to be there.
It's very possible.
And it's okay pay the taxes now too.
Well, you haven't heard this.
So he wins $6.5 million, right?
How much do you get?
You take the lump sum of $3.25 million.
Ooh.
After taxes.
Oh, don't.
You're going to shoot me down, aren't you?
A million.
2.2.
Oh, okay.
Okay.
Still, I won $6.5 million.
I only got $2.2.2.
million dollars. I mean that seems like a little much.
That's robbery. That's highway robbery right there. It is. Now he could
I mean. He could have thrown in the garbage because he could have taken the
30 year. 30 year. No one in the family would have been alive to get it. But he could have
taken the 30 year payments. So he's just you know he's like he's splitting it up giving
some to the kids. He and the wife are buying a new car. Oh you definitely get it to the
daughter. That's what I thought. You're not
giving it to his mother. She gets the smallest guy. She gets a thousand dollars. In the story it talks
about how the daughter brings dinner over ever so often. Uh, that's it every day now. Oh, absolutely.
Every day you're bringing breakfast and dinner and you're hop singing your 65 year old butt over here
and apologizing every day. That's what's happening. Until I die. And I love you. It could be next week.
But still, you're welcome.
All right, maybe tomorrow we'll dive back into the study that we'll,
We had a couple of months ago talking about what people wear and how they bathe and how they clean because now there's a new study out.
It was paid for by Tommy John, the underwear people, not the actual Tommy John.
Not Tommy John, no.
No, it was the underwear people.
They're a sponsor of the network.
And I love Tommy John.
They're my favorite underwear of all time.
I don't have any, but I love them.
I said they're sponsored the network.
I'm going to have to run right up.
I didn't say there's a sponsor of the show.
I say they're a sponsor of the network.
I'll run right out and buy some.
How long do you wear your underwear before putting on a clean pair?
Three days.
Well, you're a little bit longer than most people.
Before you answer that, what about you?
I wonder to your answer.
Me?
Yes.
Daily.
Really?
Daily.
Even if there's...
Even if there's...
Even if you still change a daily?
Yes.
Absolutely.
Daily.
I am a firm believer in that.
13% of those surveyed wear the same pair of underwear for a week or more.
Now, I guess you get, what, you turn them inside out?
That's two.
I don't need to get it back the other way.
That's three.
Turn it back the other way.
There's four.
Four.
I'll say four days.
I'll give you four days on the outside.
More than that, though.
That's a lot of days.
You're living in dirt.
Yes.
Men are more likely to.
to wear underwear for more than a week.
I believe that.
46% of those surveyed have owned a pair of underwear
for a year or more.
Well, yeah.
I think I'm going for two years
on a couple of underwears.
38% say they have no idea
how long they have had the same underwear.
I mean, it's...
What are you doing with your life?
You cannot keep track of your underwear.
Clean underwear can contain up to 10,000 living bacteria.
That's clean.
You might know, but everything has bacteria in.
The six things that can happen to women that don't change their panties.
Uh-oh, gross.
How much time do we have before?
I know we're on Blaze Radio Network, and I've got a...
You got a minute 30.
Six things that can happen to women that don't change their panties.
Rash.
Weird colors.
Yeast infections.
Chafing.
UTI.
Do not get me started on UTI.
Public lice or scabies.
Ooh, that is not good.
There's also various health implications for men.
How many?
15.
itching,
inflammation,
which most men would be happy about,
bacterial infections and genital wounds.
Oh,
that does not sound good.
Every man in America just went.
So dry your underwear on low
for at least 30 minutes after washing.
Don't mix your undies in the same load of laundry
with anyone in your house who is sick.
Don't wash contaminated underwear
with other pairs of it.
In other words,
just be clean.
Can we just be clean?
Can we just be clean?
That's a new motto of the show.
can we just be clean.
That's all I want to do.
It's all.
Holy cow, this went on for more.
I mean, we've got British men where their underwear six times or more.
French men wear the same pair of these six times.
I mean, I can start beating up on the other Europeans around the world, but I won't.
Let's just say, can we just be cleaned, please?
Don't forget.
podcast is going to give you dessert today too.
That's right.
Chewing the fat.
Dessert.
Download and subscribe to more content at the blaze.com slash podcasts.
Hi, welcome to dessert on chewing the fat.
I just wanted to a couple of quick things before.
I have to go back to the temperature in your home story.
It's driving me insane.
Just do it tomorrow on Pat Grand Leash.
You have two hours there.
You could maybe take an hour from it.
Chewing the fact gets 30 minutes on Pat Grant Leach.
Well, that's a freaking travesty.
It should be two hours.
I'm there for the...
I come in at 6.30 and I usually sit in for the rest of the show,
but I have...
My segment is that, you know, that 30 minutes.
And maybe I just take it over.
Can you also, you know, I just want to put this out there?
Maybe I just take it over.
Can you tell Pat Gray to stop using our stuff?
I know.
He's using our sounders.
He's using our stories.
At least give us credit.
That'd be nice.
Be nice.
I would like, can you bring that out?
Because I don't get to see him.
Can you bring that?
It would be nice too.
Maybe sometimes, you know, I do a story on chewing the fat
during my segment on Wednesday.
I hear him do the show.
I hear him sit on Thursday.
Do the same story over again.
And like you said, no credit.
It's like he doesn't even listen to me.
It's like I come in and I do my segment
but he doesn't even listen to me.
That's what it left one like.
Aw.
It hurts.
It hurts.
But tomorrow, more.
We have to.
I mean, some great comments.
Thank you all for comments.
I mean, we've got hundreds of comments.
500 comments, dude.
There are hundreds of comments because people know it's silly.
It's just silly.
This energy star, this joint federal program run by the Department of Energy and the Environmental Protection Agency recommends that for optimal cooling and energy efficiency, the coolest you should keep your house is 78 degrees fair.
And that's only when you're at home and awake.
No.
No?
How about I recommend you sit at home with a stick up your ass?
I'm sorry, with a stick up your behind.
I didn't mean to, I don't need to break.
This is a dessert.
This is a dessert.
Yeah.
I get a little wound up.
Yeah, you lose in your belt.
You listen in your belt, pants is off.
Yeah.
Yeah, you all said.
Yes, I wanted the caramel sauce.
Thank you.
But the, uh, I love how you looked like there was a server in front of you.
You literally loop made eye contact and everything.
Well, of course you would.
Why would you do that?
A side note too.
I love the story about Elton John defending Megan Markle and Prince Harry.
And they're all working.
They're all giving them all kinds of crap for taking.
I'm confused.
Why?
It's Royal Talk, maybe.
Yeah, okay.
That's fine.
Because it is Royal Talk.
And they're taking their private jet to France.
And they're taking their big, they're taking a lot of heat.
And they're getting a lot of coverage.
They should get a lot of heat.
They should.
Stop being so eco-awoke and you use a freaking aircraft.
And then just be hypocrites about it.
Yes.
But Elton's been giving him that he stood up for him with that.
He stood out for him with the press, following him around and giving megan a hard time.
I believe that's because you heard it here first.
You did.
That Elton John, this is more proof that Elton is the godfather of Archie.
Absolutely.
Because he is too vocal.
for mom and dad for him not to be the godfather because he didn't know my back last night
we fly yeah and i hate that i hate that that was from his little youtube party that he was
going to do it no he never paid remember we talked about it we never found out if he paid him
no we never did we never heard they put the big thing together we never got the finals right
we have to dig into that.
We didn't do an investigative report in that, man.
Elton, no, man, we want to find out what the heck happened
between you and YouTube and Bernie Toplin.
You just took all this stuff that they sent you.
They made the movie.
Right, that's where they made the movie and they used,
and now he's touring again, coming up with new material
that he stole from the YouTubers.
I have no way of proving that, to be honest with you,
but it just sounded good at the time.
All right, so I have so much more to talk to you about it.
I know this is a dessert, but to be honest, and just between you and me, between us,
on the other side of the camera.
The audience behind you left.
Other side of the camera, good.
They even took the camera with them.
The cheap seats, get the heck out.
But those of you listening, audio style, those of you watching video style, the construction crew is outside this room right now, so pissed.
because I'm taking time to record this show
and they want to get in here and finish up the room.
I almost want to take more time so they can't finish today
so that they come in.
When Pat comes in tomorrow morning, the studio isn't done,
and he would be angry. He'll be mad.
Make for a good show.
It'd make for a good show if he comes in and sits down,
and gets here and sees that the work isn't done,
and then he'd be pissed.
It'll make him for a good show.
Or I could just let him come in and, you know, finish the show.
So we'll talk to you tomorrow.
I'm
