And now, a Blaze Media podcast.
Okay, we don't know if this is true or not.
We just know that we've been alerted that Walmart is posting signs in stores in several states,
saying dish soap is experiencing a national supply shortage,
impacting product availability for our customers.
These shortages will remain until December 1st.
We apologize for any inconvenienced.
this may cause you.
These signs were spotted in West Virginia, New York, Pennsylvania.
They were spotted in a couple of other states as well.
There's no, nobody's commented on what?
Why?
Procter Gamble has confirmed the shortage,
but they haven't confirmed why.
what is going on with dish soap?
Right?
I mean,
there's,
you know, Procter Gamble isn't the only company
that makes dish soap,
and I apologize for not having the entire list
of every company in the world that's making dish soap,
but it could be a problem.
So,
and what does this do for dish soap hoarding?
Because last night I saw this and I'm thinking,
I got to go to the store and buy a whole bunch of dis soap just in case.
We're coming up on Thanksgiving.
You need dish soap for Thanksgiving.
That's all you do is wash freaking dishes on Thanksgiving.
And does this account for the hand soap, dis soap?
Or does it count for dishwasher soap?
I don't know.
I don't know.
We're in the middle of big dish soap investigation.
I'll tell you.
Call the wife.
Diss soap.
It wasn't too long ago when they were giving us a hard time about the Chinese restaurant.
They were washing the dishes in the river.
Maybe that's why.
The precursor in dish sub-shortage.
Okay, so I see this story that talks about a man didn't notice two-inch cupcake topper lodged in throat for a week.
Now, off the top of my head, I'm thinking, he's not suing, is he?
I mean, he's not suing the big cupcake topper companies
because, I mean, you're the one that swallowed the stupid thing.
So apparently, a 60-year-old unnamed man
had initially gone to a Baltimore area hospital emergency room
complaining of throat pain, sent home,
then x-rays didn't see anything.
He decided to say, I got to go to the hospital.
He goes to the ER, and somebody actually did an x-ray
and knew how to look at it and said,
you got something in your throat.
We're going to have to operate.
Your old throat is,
all, something's going on down there.
Some kind of foreign body in your throat
was covered in food particles.
Yeah, I know.
That's why I'm here.
So they pulled it out,
and it was a little cupcake topper
that said Happy Mother's Day on it.
And he just said, apparently,
he was, you know, had Happy Mother's.
How many times?
How many, who among us?
Who among us?
hasn't just seen, hey, there's a tray of cupcakes with little toppers on it,
and you don't pay attention to just eat it right then.
You just devour it so fast, you're just eating those little toppers.
And I'm telling you, if it makes it past your throat,
those little pointer bottoms, they are cutting you to pieces, man.
There's no doubt about that.
So, but this is how my mind works.
A, I'm happy that he's not suing.
It was just a story of saying, hey, be careful.
This kind of stuff happens.
It talked about an old lady that swallowed her dentures.
So you just have to be careful what you're putting in your mouth.
It's a good rule of thumb.
The good rule of thumb from chewing the fat to you.
Be careful what you put in your mouth.
That's all I'm saying.
But this is how, I'll explain to you how my mind works with this.
So I read the story and I think, okay, cool.
I mean, the guy's an idiot and, you know, he's devouring cupcakes with the little,
What's that?
And why is he suing?
He's not, right.
Because you thought he was suing.
I did, which really frustrating.
But he didn't.
This was just a,
this was just a PSA for people,
not to swallow cupcake toppers.
But then I'm thinking,
my mind goes to,
do you know how much money
the companies make
for making those little toppers?
I mean, I've spent a small fortune myself
on buying the little,
my little pony toppers,
and the Transformer Toppers and the Disney Toppers
and just the toppers that say happy birthday,
there's little rings, there's little happy Mother's Day,
all of that stuff.
Fortune.
That is, I mean, a billion dollar company, right?
I don't even know, some of them are probably made in China,
but most of that is done here in the U.S.,
I'm guessing, those little manufacturing companies
that make the little, you know, syringe plastic containers
and the little toppers that go on your cupcakes and cakes.
And this weekend, I'm putting together,
well, I shouldn't know it's this weekend my wife is putting together.
I'm watching.
That's right.
I let her do it.
She says, I enjoy putting stuff together.
I say, go ahead.
I love you too, baby.
You do it.
So she's putting together shelving that we bought for the house that we're moving into,
and we're putting in some shelving in the garage.
And the reason that I'm putting it,
shelving in the garage. I'm going to take another side note here. When we looked at the place,
there was tremendous shelving in the garage. And I thought, great. I don't have to buy shelving.
So I come back a week later, after we signed the deal, the shelving is gone. I was so mad. I was so mad.
So anyway, I go out and buy the new shelving. She's putting it together. And as we're putting it
together in the package is little baggies of these rubber or plastic petro technology
stoppers that you put on the top of at the top and bottom of the shelving.
You get calling that petro technology.
What do you mean by petro technology?
That's something you know, they're made like plastic cups.
They're made from oil.
Oh, I didn't know that.
Anyway, so these little manufacturing companies are everywhere.
I mean, there are small businesses.
There's one in my neighborhood now, just outside of the actual housing neighborhood.
But he makes a fortune.
He probably employs 50 to 100 people.
I'm not sure what he makes there.
But he makes, I mean, he parks his vacation bus in the back with his SUVs.
That's not where the employees park, by the way.
And I, in fact, at one time, applied for a job when I needed a job at one of these places
that made the little plastic, where I talked about the little syringes, the little syringes,
that's what that company did.
It made the medical supplies, the little plastic syringes.
They had machines you go through and then, you know, you box them up and make sure they're
clean and scrape the little bits of plastic that have worn off, you know, sand them off
the ends and you put them in their boxes and off they go.
Those multi-million dollar companies, man.
So if you have an idea, and then we visited a guy who handles all,
the merchandise for the Flying J truck stop stores?
He says, like all the merchandise that they sell to the store, he handles.
He sells it to them.
He gets it.
He sells it to the stores.
They order it.
They order it to him.
They box it up.
They don't even own trucks.
It's cheaper to UPS it out.
They send it to the Flying J.
Goes there.
They open up the boxes they put on the shelf.
But one of the things that he does is,
is, you know, the little spray aerosol,
the little spray,
tz,
and, you know,
he smells like dead feet or new leather
or whatever he wants the smell to be.
And,
uh,
he makes those.
Those are,
that's not like Chinese company that makes those.
He's got big barrels of,
there's like two or three different mixes that go into each flavor.
So he's got a part of his warehouse that's got,
like 25 or 30 of these barrels,
you know, three each,
and they all mix into these things.
He's got, you know,
Jose and Hoseby back there,
bottling up the, the fragrance bottles
with the different flavors,
boxing them up,
and shipping them out.
So when you spend, you know,
a buck, two bucks,
three bucks on the little tzs,
bottles,
I mean, he's,
it's just,
It is a fortune.
Just a fortune.
All you have to do is make a little cupcake
toppers and say happy Mother's Day on them.
Sign the deal with Walmart
and you're good.
It's amazing.
Amazing.
Yeah, that's right.
Don't look at me like that.
I'm jealous.
So, really,
if you're looking for a date in today's world,
do you go out to
a drinking establishment?
You know where it's a good place to become a day?
It's a grocery store.
A grocery store.
In fact, I think I should just start out my own dating app.
And it was called The Shopping Cart.
Thank you.
Pushing your shopping cart through the store.
think to yourself hey are you single well now all you have to do is swipe someone into the shopping
card baby that's my new app actually i shouldn't have said that out loud that's probably a pretty
good idea anyway the um and how many times do you've gone through the frozen food section and
said oh yeah hello i need to
get some fish sticks too.
Anyway, so this story is talking about dating apps and talks about the best dating apps and sites
for singles.
Note the word singles over 40.
So, Tinder is still number one.
Tinder number one dating app for over 40.
And, you know, I guess that's because, you know, you know, you know, you know,
I mean, that was big in the college campuses,
and for the Olympics,
that's how we found out about it.
So those younger whippersnappers
aren't using Tinder anymore, I guess.
But apparently they are.
It's younger users say that
let's nearby singles swipe through each other's profiles.
Yeah, swipe right, and you meet right then.
It's a Tinder night.
That was the whole point of having it available in colleges.
It's a Tinder night.
Swipe right, baby.
Meet you here in an hour.
Well, for Tinder, then you're swiping everybody that comes across the screen.
You're just ready to go, you matched.
That's what you're doing.
More than one shows up.
That's more the better.
Okay.
I'll get you for seven.
Can you come back here at 9 and you at midnight?
And you may be 2 o'clock in the morning.
Or how about y'all just come in now?
How about you?
You start fighting.
Just start fighting each other.
You and I need to have a good.
serious conversation because that is not true.
Okay.
That is not true.
How long ago were you in the dating world?
Not true.
How long ago were you in the dating world?
How long ago?
Chris,
I can't talk about what I'm doing right now because I've married.
Happily, of course.
And so I can't do it, but I'm just telling you.
I'm just telling you.
That whole, you come back at Savage, you come back at Dad,
if you come back at midnight.
Just come on in.
And then there's Bumble.
Number two.
Coming in at number two.
The Bumble dating app.
I thought that was,
uh,
yeah.
Yeah.
I thought that was.
Exactly.
Or the female
empowered.
Yeah.
Right?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Because females are the ones that make the first,
a male cannot contact a female.
Female contacts the male.
Right, and that's their ad, but it's more, I get the female makes the first contact,
but it also more female female, right?
Yeah, yeah, that one too.
And then there's plenty of fish.
Which I love, P-O-F.
There's plenty of fish.
P-O-F, yes.
That's what I said, plenty of fish.
P-O-F, Puff.
You get the one from, the one in the article quotes, the quote is,
you get the ones from the bottom of the ocean messaging you.
It's kind of sad to think these men think they have a chance.
Right.
Wow, that hurts.
Then there's a Lumen.
Never heard of that one.
This dating site is exclusively for singles 50 and over,
which makes it a dating site of choice for singles,
such as Maria Rodriguez 54.
Gold digger.
The county social services worker who divorced in 2018 after a 29-year marriage.
Wow.
Wow, that's...
I am not swiping that.
I mean, I'm sure you're fine, Maria?
No, I don't think so either.
Because after 28 years, the guy was like, I need a new one, returned.
Oh, I mean.
She says I'm shopping around.
Also, she needs to go to shopping cart.
Who likes that her app of choice Lumen helps her weed out potential sleaze balls.
Oh, shut out.
By limiting the number of conversations users can initiate and banning photo DMs.
Oh, if you're banning photo direct messages.
No one is texting you.
That's what a dating abys for.
It's when you go, boop.
Oh, there's a Johnson.
Hello.
Hello.
Hello.
That's not the picture.
That's not the, yeah, is this, is,
Hey, baby.
Is Maria here?
Yeah, this is Maria.
Got a cigarette.
It's all ashes.
That hasn't flicker it yet.
No, I'm in.
I'm in.
I'm wondering when you were going to show up.
Big-ass-moon-o with a big.
Don't start.
don't do it
until the start don't
with a big burger
with a big burger state
then you have e-harmony
that's like
e-harmony that's a dating site right
yeah that's for people that don't be serious
yes
yeah you want to go to eat harmony
is it the Christian mingle
yes
or farmers mingle
or fat guy
I noticed that
they don't have the fat guy mingle
here
well another $1,000 dollar idea
Million. Hinge is the next one.
I never heard of that one either.
I don't know about Hinge.
Is that the one that you cheat with?
This is another popular one among middle-aged dating set, and for a good reason.
It's closely linked to Facebook, a platform that users in that age group are already familiar with.
You can opt to log in through Facebook so you can find potential matches.
You're in your Facebook, Friends of Friends Network.
Oh, that's the one that the cop got in trouble.
Although Hinge declined to share numbers on its user makeup, several 40.
plus New Yorkers we spoke to are fans
and appreciate that their connections
are kind of prevented by their friends of friends.
Yeah, because the friends,
yeah, the friends are the ones that approve it,
which is why they have the Facebook social media attached to it.
Which, by the way, me and you have not heard of this one,
which I like, because the first line you said,
this is very popular of the people in the midlife, you know, range.
Me and you have not hit there yet.
Not even close, my friend.
So I feel good I've not heard about henched.
And then tied at the bottom is match.com and hour time.com.
Which another, that's for serious stuff.
Yeah, that's not the Tinder date where, you know, it's not the same this Friday.
I notice Grindr's not on this list.
Well, Grindr has some bad reputation on it.
Grindr's more for the mail.
What?
Yeah.
I've been on Grindr.
I'm sorry?
Have you been on Grindr?
I've been on Grindr because I was curious two years ago when it came out.
It's not only for the gays.
It's also for the trans.
A lot of trans people are there.
Okay, so, I mean, that gets them away from Bumble then, right?
Yeah.
Because maybe Bumble doesn't let them on.
Yeah.
Ooh, that's good.
That could be a lawsuit there.
A lot of trans people.
Go for it.
Right.
It's all yours.
You're welcome.
And Tinder.
I guess it doesn't matter on Tinder.
Who cares?
Yeah.
Again, it's that Tinder day.
You swipe right until they say you can't swipe no more.
and then you work for the
or you're swiping left
and just moving on.
Well, if you swipe left,
you have no chance.
It's a numbers game.
Tinder is a number scheme.
You swipe right.
Someone's going to say yes to you.
If it's the one that you want,
okay, then you say yes.
But,
yeah.
You're sure someone's going to say yes to you.
Absolutely.
And then there's the big cheating one.
I know that one.
Right?
What can I think of that?
that is famous for that's that specifically they're not trying to be eharmony.com
they're trying to use some extra business yes you're you're already in a relationship but you
need a little business outside that's right I still I still love Mindy to the bottom of my heart
but but right now Ashley is looking right now Ashley is looking darned
So is.
Oh, look at Bambi.
Oh, look at her go.
Oh, and Steve doesn't look bad right now either.
Get over here.
Look at Johnny.
Get over here.
Come on in.
Okay, we can stop with the music now.
I've got Ashley and I've got and I've got Steve.
Like, it's enough.
No, Johnny?
No, Johnny, no.
Too full.
It's too many.
You know what?
I'll go your game with Johnny.
Johnny can come back at two.
Okay, okay.
These two have been gone by that.
A thruple is becoming famous now.
Everybody's doing throuples.
I know.
The politicians.
Thruple.
Would you stop with the thruple?
Stop it.
It's a threesome.
No.
See, when Glenn talked about this,
I wanted to correct them.
Really?
Yes.
So, glad you got the whole sexual thing wrong.
That's amazing.
Yeah, I think so.
I think so.
Because I believe, you know, the threesome is the sexual act.
Yes.
The throuple is the relationship act.
Okay.
All right, I'll go with that.
I'll give you a thruple for that.
There's plenty of throuples.
Yeah, me and your wife.
That's a beautiful threep.
Wait, what?
Me and your wife.
That don't end up in a threesome.
Absolutely, because you don't want that.
You just want the friendship.
You want the friendship, the attention.
You just want to have more.
Yeah, it's nothing sexual.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Well, I mean, someone in the, in the thruple at one point or another is thinking, you know,
we've already had two bottles of wine.
We might as well.
I mean, at some point that's got to happen, right?
At some point.
Maybe not.
Maybe I'm just, maybe I'm just thinking, you know, old school.
Yeah.
All right, so we might as well get to a couple of stories that I teased yesterday at the end of the podcast, which you should subscribe to.

It gives you a plethora of options.
Is that more than more?
Yeah.
Oh, my God.
Stop talking.
Seriously.
Seriously.
So anyway, I'll get to the stories that I tease yesterday before the end of the show.
Like the more meat you eat, the shorter your business will last.
So eating meat, if you're a man, and you have, you know, you're ready for business.
if you eat a lot of meat,
it makes business time shorter and weaker.
Right?
I have a perfect way to combat that.
Get Roman.
Okay.
One of these sponsors,
I mean,
one of these shows like Chad or they can get your promo code,
but get Roman,
get you flow gold.
We don't have a promo code for chewing the fat?
No, we don't.
No, we don't.
They don't advertise on this show?
They do not advertise on this show.
How is it possible?
But they advertise with stew.
How is it possible?
or the news or something like that.
But hey, get your Roman.
How is it possible that this show doesn't have that sponsor?
That's what I want to know.
How is it possible?
And I'm a faithful subscriber of Get Roman.
They're pretty good.
They're not blue.
I thought they were blue and they're red.
Those are the other ones.
Oh, so that's not for that?
The little blue pill.
It is for that.
But the little blue pill is another company.
Oh, I thought they were all blue.
Like across the board, if you have,
If you're eating too much meat, I thought you just get the blue pill.
And I don't know that that's actually true that it would combat too much.
No, we don't know that.
We don't know that.
We don't know that that's too much true.
But it sounds good.
It does sound good.
It does sound good, right?
It sounds good pitch.
So if it's not true, Roman, it was Chris Cruz, not me.
Yeah, that's two days in a row.
Yeah, I'm just saying.
That's two days in a row.
I'm just saying.
I'm not taking credit for something because I want them to be a sponsor.
And I'm a little tick that they're not a sponsor on this program.
How's your hairline looking?
and there's another one
so why do you do that
I'm a subscriber to that one too
I'm trying to
it sounded like the same pill bottle
no no no it's a different bottle look
I'm gonna pick it up
see different bottle
yeah the Roman
this one is red
the Roman
the Roman
the Roman
keep
yeah I don't know that it
are you telling me that's different
it's two different bottles weird
yeah one more time
keep
no keep
oh
One. Okay. You're right. Different. I apologize.
So apparently, apparently if you have a plant-based diet.
Oh, liars. This is by Big Impossible Burger.
We heard of big taco, I mean, big tobacco, big liquor.
Big dish soap.
Yeah. This is big impossible burger.
It's very possible. I believe that.
You cannot eat meat because you cannot enjoy the things of live.
like sex. So go to our
plant base. Yeah.
I mean, and they even
threw Schwarzenegger in this
article about... Why would they throw him in there?
He says as
Schwarzenegger doesn't get into the
penile particulars.
I feel like I need to blur that out.
But he does
he does say that shifting to a plant
based diet has helped to lower his
cholesterol. So there's absolutely
nothing to do with this article.
Has nothing to do as what they're trying to
But they just throw Arnold Schwarzenegger in the story.
Well, maybe Arnais to stop doing the Roids.
Wow.
I'm sure he has.
So that he can do some.
I'm sure he has stopped.
I mean, there's been...
He did get kick in their face a couple months ago.
Remember that?
He's getting up there.
In years, you can't do that stuff as you get older, man.
Just saying.
And plus, we know that Roids affects the size of certain male parts.
Remember in the book,
from Jose Conceco's wife.
I don't know if it was a book or an interview.
She talked about,
those of you, Jose Conceco,
Major League Baseball player,
he's still trying to be relevant out there
on social media every now and then.
But he's a big-time
Royd user.
Okay.
Does that have a side effect?
I just said it affects the size of certain male parts.
Yeah, but she just...
And she said it was in either a book
or an article.
that after they divorced, she was, well, when she was dating, you know, I don't know, tender, bumble, grinder, whatever one it was,
uh, that she was surprised at the size of her dates, man, because, because I don't know if she was dating an elephant or not.
I just know that she was surprised because the size that was,
Jose Canseco wasn't as large.
So,
just an idea if you want to,
if you think it's a problem for you,
maybe,
you know,
eat less meat.
Now you kill it,
you grill it.
Speaking of meat,
you kill it,
you grill.
Speaking of meat,
you kill it,
you grill it.
New California law allows drivers to eat
roadkill.
I'm surprised that this isn't already a law.
I mean, already a deal?
I mean, if you, first of all, first of all,
if you hit a deer, odds are you're not going to want to eat it.
A, you're more concerned about your car
because that damn deer causes some damage in your car.
I don't know if you've ever hit a deer before,
but it ain't pretty.
Have you hit a deer?
No, but I've witnessed it happen,
and I have had relatives.
I've had relatives who have had it happen before.
I've seen the aftermath.
I've seen the aftermath almost immediately a couple of times
where it ran in front of a car and gets hit and smashes the car.
I mean, deer's are good-sized animals, man.
They're not the little bunny hopping across the road that you just run over.
Poop-boop.
You just hit it.
Oh, that's how you say hit it.
Okay, I think more of like, I'm driving by and...
No, that...
Oh, look at that.
I hit this deer!
Yeah, darn, darn the luck.
Darn the luck.
Oh, darn.
my car tire ran over a bullet and it fired into the deer.
I can't help that.
So apparently it's a Senate Bill 395 authorizes the creation of a pilot program in California,
where the state will designate up to three regions having high wildlife vehicle collisions
as being valid locations where drivers may salvage the meat of certain animals.
Well, that's what I'm getting at is that when you hit a deer,
man, that meat is all bruised and beat up.
I mean, it's not very tight.
The deer that turns around and eats you is the whole thing.
You know, I mean, you want the good meat.
The reason that you use a bullet to shoot an animal, let's say if you're out deer hunting
and you want to shoot it, I don't know, in the neck or the upper torso,
you want to do that because it creates more of the meat to eat.
If you hit it with a car, that's a whole big side that's bruised and tough.
You've got to still try to cut that out and get rid of that.
That's tough going.
And I'm surprised most people don't do that, but you're still going to have to get it checked, right?
I mean, this story doesn't say anything about, let's see.
Bill's signed a bill and won't be a prison.
It gets the law for anyone, but state and local agencies to remove an animal carcass from the road.
Yeah, okay, so which is ridiculous.
If I'm in my neighborhood and there's a dead animal carcass, I'm not waiting for Joe the
animal remover to come and pick up the car.
The park ranger?
Mr. Park Ranger, yeah, no. I'm just going to throw it in the trash camera.
That would be illegal, though.
And that gets you a ticket and sometime in a slimmer.
So now, it doesn't say, it doesn't say if they still have to come and check it out.
Because the animal could still, the animal could be alive and you have to put it down.
Or it could be sick.
You have this whole sick.
It could have some kind of disease.
Okay.
We've already had,
we've got crazy deer stories
all over the country.
Yes, but what is your fascination of like
you hit a thing and it's sick?
Like are you talking like deer suicide or something?
Like the deer committed suicide because it's sick
and has a health care.
That's what I'm talking about.
That's what I'm getting out of you.
That's why I think it's crazy that we try to pull whales
back into the ocean after they beach themselves
because they've committed suicide.
They know they're sick and dying.
And yet we want to wheel them back into the ocean and let them live some more.
Let them get other whales sick.
No, that's what's happening here.
Dears are running themselves in front of vehicles to kill themselves because they're sick.
By the way, this is a problem that California, I don't know, maybe have some population control, let some people have more hunting licenses.
That's true.
And you don't have that problem.
But you still have.
It's cheaper because you have to pay that park ring.
You may not have as much of a problem.
You still have that problem.
I mean, there's hunting licenses at Michigan all the time and people where I grew up.
up and people hit deer all the time.
They're idiots.
I mean, that's clear.
There's a suicide deer that are trying to, they can't have a handle the chicken.
But if the animal is sick, the roadkill is sick.
See, but you keep saying that.
Like, what, I need some proof of, like, dears are sick.
We just did a story last week about mad deer in three or four states.
Yes, yes.
So if you hit that.
Did we hit that?
And I don't know it's a zombie deer.
And I gut it and take it home and I'm eating zombie deer.
You're not becoming.
Now I'm turning into a zombie.
And that's what happened.
Right.
It's exactly what's happening.
Didn't you watch Fortitude on Amazon?
Yes.
Did you watch both seasons?
No.
Okay.
Good, because I just made it through two.
Wow.
That was I kept, I had to force myself to get through two.
I mean, it was a long process because two was.
Was it bad or?
Just tedious.
It just was, let's get through it.
Because one was so good.
One was great.
you told me about it.
One was the beginning of the beginning of the walking dead.
And what caused the sickness?
A deer.
No.
Oh.
But it was a dead animal.
It was a woolly mammoth that thawed out.
And people got sick.
I thought you said you watched it.
No, no.
The Willie mammoths.
That's walking dead like all over.
Right.
So if I hit a deer that has crazy deer disease.
From the Wally Mammoth.
Or the Willie Mammoth.
If I hit the Willie Mammoth, it's already dead.
thawing out. I hit that and then I say hey
look is that still some meat on it? Yeah
and I got it and I turn into
a Willie mammoth. Wait
that doesn't really work.
All right so many people have pets and I
I think I've petted out.
Wait, again I don't know that that
sounds right because I'm not
I think I've gone past the idea of having pets
my kids still want pets. I just drive up so
Have you ever had a pet? Yeah, I'm so sick of
Other than the cat that got into the powdered donuts.
So you had a pet?
Yeah, yeah.
The bird that flew away.
Oh, the bird, yes.
The bird that I killed.
Oh, never mind.
You have dogs?
I haven't had to have.
Dogs.
Okay.
Yeah.
Because then you like Elvis' dog.
That's like your favorite.
We kept Elvis's dog King for a long time when Elvis was on the road and stuff.
I love that dog.
That dog, he's getting old now, too.
I'm so sad.
I mean, I love that dog.
I love that dog.
You should get him the.
Robin's dog food.
I know.
I've talked to him about it, but, you know,
what does the big stupid dummy Elvis do nothing?
Look, I tried to reach out and talk to him finally
because I haven't talked to him in years.
Okay.
Since he told me, I can't play football anymore.
I'm a hurt.
Oh, you reached out?
So I don't even talk to him anymore hardly.
I reached out just to try to save the dog.
Save the dog, yeah.
That's a good dad.
That's a good dad right there.
Nothing.
So he said no.
I don't think he said no.
I think he just.
I didn't hear your voicemail.
Something like that.
Wait, he didn't even pick up.
But I love that dog, man.
I seriously, I do love that.
King is a good dog, man.
We had such a good time with him.
And I miss, and every time, I mean,
he stays with us as much as he can.
You know what I mean?
But to have, to actually,
it's what's good about King is that he does go back.
You know what I mean?
Yeah.
I do like, I mean, I love him and he could stay.
And if he had to, if he had to stay with someone,
he absolutely could.
stay here with.
But,
and I had,
we had a Rottweiler for a while,
Zeus.
Oh, that's a good breed right there.
Zeus,
that's a good breed,
man.
That's a good breed.
But I'll tell you about Rottweilers.
Rottweilers,
those dogs, man,
those dogs could take a hit.
Absolutely.
They're meant to take hits.
They could take a hit.
Yes.
Zeus would be doing stuff
and he would start losing his mind.
Like as a Rottweiler,
every so often they break into,
I'm a Rottweiler and I could just do what I want and I forget
what I'm doing and I'll just rip your ass off
if I want to.
You've got to put.
to stop to that quick.
Yes, he did.
I mean, you just punch it in the head.
Yeah.
Peter's going to...
Calm down, Peter.
It's a Rottweiler.
Animal lovers are like, what are you talking about?
We just said Rottweilers can take a hit.
I'm telling you that because he punched it in the head and it would just be like,
oh, what?
Oh, yeah.
I'm back.
Yeah.
Oh, yeah.
Okay.
And they do get that look too.
I'll go over and finish up my bowl of pasta you made for me.
I love that dog.
And he and I became friends once, when we became friends, he was Amber's dog.
When we first met, and I was watching them.
And we were out for a walk tonight.
Let's go for a walk.
I'm out for a walk.
And around the corner comes this kid with these two big dogs,
and these two big dogs start take off.
And they're dragging the kid.
And finally the kid just lets go.
And these dogs are coming to fight Zeus.
Yeah.
And I, Zeus was like ready to freak out.
And I dropped kicked that one dog so hard.
And the other dog into the other dog.
and they it slowed them down enough to have the kid come back and try to
get a hold of them and stuff and I was hollering at the kid like what do you do if you can't
handle the dogs man don't walk him and Zeus was
was standing next to me after I kicked those dogs to take care of him so he did
have to fight he was like Bob Bain man and we we have we high pod
hi pod yeah hi pod we fisted yeah yeah that's a thing we pod he was my
he and I were buds after that ever said ever so this is my main for those asking
that's a gentle giants by Robin from Batman and Robin.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Gentle Giants.
Yeah, nobody was asking.
Oh, I got a lot of text.
So according to the, according to the text, they were asking about.
For the people listening live, like I said.
And the people listening live to the podcast.
Yeah.
Thank you.
Sorry.
Sorry.
We have the new popular dog names for 2020.
Nice.
Brought to you by Tasty Bone.
Who doesn't love a tasty bone?
Almost one in five dogs
Were named after a film character
Over the last year
Oh my dog name is Thor
I cannot believe people are naming their kids after movies
I mean dogs after movies
Yeah Thor
That's my dog's name
Boom
I named my one son Maximus
Get over it
Yeah Maximilian
Yeah
No
Maximus
Are you sure because I was called Maximilian
I know it pisses me off
Because his name is freaking Maximus
Not Maximilianian
He was after Maximus Desmus
Meridius
Commander to the armies of the north
general to the Phoenix legions.
And I'm the loser that I named my dog Thor.
Okay.
I'm the loser.
Got it.
The true emperor, Marcus Aurelis.
And I will have my vengeance in this life for the next.
Just happen to quote that part.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Is that whole his first certificate?
I have not.
Is that the whole line he said on his first certificate?
That's his name.
That's his whole line from the scene.
Oof.
How much did you pay for that?
I have not watched that movie
That's Particus, right?
No, I'm sorry, that's Samson, right?
From the Bible.
What you need to do now is stop talking.
What needs to happen.
So, people were particularly taking
with Marvel and DC character names
with Thor.
Come on, man.
Iron Man.
Or Jarvis.
I like Jarvis.
Oh, sorry, I'll stop talking.
Harley, if it's a good-looking dog, I mean Harley Quinn.
You better be looking good.
And the Trent looks to continue in 2020 with Loki and Harley,
also featuring the top ten predictions for next year.
Some Disney characters.
Oh, yeah.
Elsa?
Do you have Elsa in there, Olaf?
Not to be released.
We got the live action.
Live action lady on the tramp.
Yeah, that's on the Disney Plus.
Us founders members circle, no about that.
Other names featured.
Other names featured in the top 10 were Charlie, Bella,
Charlie's the name of my...
Maggie.
I like Bella.
We had Charlie, Loki, Harley, Elsa, Bella, Luke, Simba, Lady, Millie, Maggie.
Maggie, isn't that the Simpsons?
Sad for a dog name.
Sad.
I mean, really.
Who would name their...
Who would...
Even their dogs
Even their kids after movies
It's just stupid
Just stupid
All right
So speaking of dogs
Write your own jokes after that line
Speaking of dogs
Veterinarians are raising money
For animals with a nude calendar
Yes
These future veterinarians are bearing their hearts
And their behinds
for a good cause.
So you're going to get holding strategically placed cowboy hats
and squealing piglets.
Veterinary students from the University of Sydney Pose
for a stripped-down photo shoot
to raise money for mental health awareness.
Why are they raising money for mental health awareness of veterinarians?
I thought...
It's not for the dogs?
Or for the shelters?
What are you talking about?
I don't.
Sydney, we need to get that straight.
And I think it's like $1.4.25 and $3.70.
We need to get that straight.
You know, look, those calendars work.
Firefighters and police departments and, you know.
And fat guys?
There's not a lot of fat guy calendars out there.
There should be.
There should be, in fact, I should do a calendar.
I should do a chewing-the-fat calendar.
What month are you taking?
No, I mean, I would just be able to every month.
No.
Well, you're not that big, so you can't take all 12 months.
You just take maybe three months.
I want to do the entire calendar.
I've already got the idea in my head.
You would flush out all 12 months.
I don't appreciate the term flush, but, uh...
You already thought out all 12 months.
Actually, I kind of have.
Now that you think of it, I don't think about it.
At one point, I thought about doing this calendar,
and I think, just as an idea what I'd like to do.
And you can email me at Chewing the Fat at theblaze.com.
How about we do this on the dessert?
And let me know...
I mean, I was just getting into it.
Yeah, you could get into it.
Give them the email, and we'll meet them at the dessert.
If you would like, if you'd like to hear more,
stick around.
apparently we've got to play some silly music
if you believe it's a good idea
email me at chewing the fat at the blaze.com
because I think chewing the fat calendar
is a good idea
download and subscribe to more content
at the blaze.com slash podcasts
so here's my idea
for a chewing the fat calendar
all right
say and this is just a rough draft
I'm open to newer ideas other than me just taking one month
because we can have a separate fat guy calendar.
I'm okay with that too.
And just a bunch of fat guys.
Well, that's why it would be a fat guy calendar.
A bunch of fat guys.
Just call it, you know.
Husky.
Overweight 2020.
Or Husky 2020.
Husky is better.
Husky 2020.
Because the people that like dogs might think is a husky calendar.
Plus it's kind of.
It is. It is. It is a kind of one. Husky, yeah.
And 2020 feels like it's going to be very...
We're not going to make it to 2020. It was too late. So Husky, 2021.
All right?
Is it enough time to get the...
We can't run up. We can not find enough. We can't run up. We can't run up. We can't have
12 fat guys. You don't just pop out a calendar, man.
You don't? No, my gosh. Have you ever built a calendar before? I have. No, you haven't. The, uh...
No, you have not. I have. What was it? What was it?
It was a...
It was a Lakeland, you know, for the studio...
Lakeland, Florida.
Yeah.
The studio has to work,
L...
Whatever they, their initials were.
They did a calendar for them.
You did?
Yes.
And this calendar was...
There's a microphone in the K-C-L-Y studios.
No, the what's it called?
The studio owner wanted to move some revenue
because nobody was renting the studios.
Okay.
So he brought a bunch of talent
that used the studios before
and they kind of got retro calendar.
So each month was a picture of...
Something different that happened on that studio before.
Okay.
Yeah.
How'd that work out?
Not good.
So anyway, what my thought was, is that saying there would be two pictures a month, all right?
Two pictures of month.
So the monthly picture would be...
Oh, this is your calendar, right?
This is not the fat guy.
This is chewing the fat.
Okay, got, got to go.
Chewing the fat, 2020, although it'll be 2021.
All right, go.
January.
The fat, 2021.
So just as an example.
July.
Oh, so with July.
Okay.
Just as an example.
Off the top of my head, I'm giving you an example.
Chewing the fat cowl.
Chewing the fat with Jeff Fisher, 2021, July.
July.
All right. So the picture for the month of July would be me wrapped in a flag.
I think there's a law against that.
Then July 4th, so each month you'd have a big picture, and then you'd have a picture
you're representing a special day in that month.
On that month.
Okay.
So on July 4th would just be me at a picnic table
with a bunch of hot dogs and fireworks going off.
And is that picture on the July 4 box or is it on the main?
Well, it's on the July 4th box,
but you could go to the back page and see a little bit bigger version.
Huh?
But the back page, isn't the back page the same picture for...
Don't get, don't bug me down with facts.
Okay.
Don't do it.
Because usually the back page of where the numbers saw.
is the next month picture.
So what's for August?
So the back page of the calendar.
Holy cow.
Like all the way of the back.
That's why it's called the back page.
Well, I thought it's using the back picture of that month.
So that's just a hypothetical idea for the month of July.
Have you thought of December?
What's a big picture in December?
December, sure.
Yeah, December was December.
December would be me.
The big picture would be me.
me in the snow or me.
Okay, I like it.
And then.
The 24 or 25th?
It would be me in a Santa suit.
Yeah, something like that.
Something like that.
Maybe maybe me laying under the Christmas tree in a open Santa suit.
Just up in my head, October.
October.
October.
October would be, you know, maybe me riding a broom.
Okay.
Ooh, I like that.
And then, you know, for the Halloween,
would be me, you know,
with a pumpkin on my head or something.
Okay, okay.
I'm liking this.
Anyway, it's just an idea.
February, the last one.
Look, I'm an idea, man.
The last one, because I'm trying to build this in my head.
February, the last one.
February, I'd be, maybe I'd be just me with, you know,
a giant box, behind a giant box,
a heart-shaped box of candy.
Oh, okay, okay.
And then for the 14th on actual Valentine's Day,
it would be maybe me surrounded by a bunch of hot babes.
No, I mean.
Don Francisco.
Is that you?
Don Francisco?
Yes, it is.
Yes, it is.
So anyway, you can email me at chewing the fat at the blaze.com and let me know if you,
you know, if you like the idea, if you got some of your own ideas, which I can steal.
Or you could, you know, you could tell me.
Jeffie shut up
Stop
We don't
Any fact
Got calendars
Oh last question
Last question
Are you
Cloth
Or you left to the imagination
Or naked
I'm
My original thought
Would be
I would be
Unclothed
Okay
Because I remember one of them
You wanted to be with an apron
And you're just wearing an apron
Yeah
Yeah
That could be
Like maybe thanks
Let's say November
November?
November.
Thanksgiving would be, you know, the month would be in an apron.
And then Thanksgiving Day would be me sitting at the Thanksgiving table with all the fixes.
Just like July.
With all the fixes.
Just like July, you sit in at the picnic table with the hot dogs.
That's correct.
On this one, you're sitting with the turkey, the mashed potatoes.
That's correct.
Yeah.
Look, I know how to celebrate holidays.
Okay.
It's a problem.
In fact, now we've got a theme, right?
Maybe every month we pick whatever, whatever day is the day to pick is the theme of me at the table.
With something.
Yeah, with something that celebrates that month.
See, this is flushing good ideas.
That's what I'm saying.
We're under the idea tree now.
This is good.
This is good.
Whatever that table is, it matches whatever the month is.
Right.
So for Arbor Day, you'll be seen out of the table with a bunch of little trees in front of you.
That's good.
Yeah.
Little bonsai trees, ready to eat, stuff like that.
Yeah.
And for Duwali Day.
The what?
The Duwali Day.
The Duwali, you know, the big, you know, celebration by the people, you know, over the...
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Oh, my gosh, I apologize.
It slipped my mind celebrating that holiday.
Dewali, yeah.
You talk about a party.
Or Hanukkah, you know.
Don't start, don't start down the, don't put in Hanukkah with Duwali.
Don't do it.
But then we've got like seven little pictures, right?
I know, that's what I'm saying.
Holy cow.
Yeah.
So definitely this is a 2025 calendar
because we've got to get all this pictures.
Yeah, now we're never going to make 2021.
For sure.
Holy cow, maybe 2022, maybe.
Columbus Day, what are you going to?
You on the table?
We'll show Indians in front of you.
Chewing the fat.
Triple twos.
2-2s.
That's not the weight.
Anyway,
it's just a couple of little thoughts.
I was just an idea.
That's what I am.
It's a pretty good thoughts.
What I am.
It's a good thought.
It's an idea, man.

Okay.
You share it another.
You don't have to share it right away.
You know, I have an amazing story
from R&Mami.
I thought shoe and the fat was
just another boring talk show
my husband listens to.
Now I love it.
I enjoy the banter and the interesting and mostly non-political topics.
This week hasn't been the same without Chris, though.
Oh, sorry, I didn't have been to read that.
Best podcast ever, 20 stars.
But this week, you have been here.
Yeah, I've been here.
So it must be an old review.
Is this listener drunk?
Is it?
Well, she wrote it to me last night like at 2 o'clock in the morning.
Yeah.
So.
That's if you believe that this is actually a true review.
There may be some people.
I am most definitely not one.
Is it true a review?
Do you think that someone like you?
Someone like you.
Just an example off the top of my head.
I'm not me,
Rodney.
I'm not peer delecto.
No, I know you are.
That's why you would say the name that you said.
Just make up some name.
Are you and mommy?
Yeah.
Oh, you guys, I used to think it was just boring,
but until I read it for myself,
it's like Penthouse Forums.
I never thought it could happen to be
until, boy, it sure did.
Oh, wait.
Those stories are real.
Oh, never mind.
