And now a Blaze Media podcast. Okay, so we all saw the pictures of the bus, the Transit Authority bus in Pittsburgh that got swallowed, you know, half swallowed into the sinkhole on the street in Pittsburgh. And, you know, sure, there's stories all over that, you know, the city hadn't upgraded their pipe system underground. So there's those piping systems are bursting and that's what's causing the sinkholes. Yad, yada, yeah. But when I first saw the picture, I thought, wow, whoever is on that bus. Ow! My back, my neck.

I mean, somebody's getting paid. Some cash for that, right? So, according to reports, there were two people on the bus, so Transit Authority is working hard in Pittsburgh, two people on this bus that seats about 80. You talk about a waste of government money. But I'm sure, and I love public transit,

so don't get me wrong, but I'm just saying, don't look at me like that. I do. I, if no one, no one supports, public transit more than I do. I love it. And if it were available to me to use that or I could go from my house to my work on public,

I would take it in a heartbeat and have before in my life. But so apparently one person was taken to the hospital with injuries. There were two people on the bus. You're telling me, and that's not even including the driver, I don't think. They're talking about two people. If that's including the driver, that's even sadder than I thought about public transit in Pittsburgh.

Just one person is writing? But, right. But so they get sucked up into the sinkhole and only one person gets hurt? No. No, no. Someone, that's wrong. They write. Whoever is on that bus, whenever anything happens, man.

Ow! Oh! Oh, my neck. My neck. I can't. Ah. Oh. Oh.

Oh. I can't. Can't. Can't. Are you okay? No. My neck. My, my.

my back, my butt, my legs, all of it, gone, sorry. And now the show open. And now the show open. Those of you watching on camera right now, saw me, you know, talk to the opening story. And then I, you know, I pointed to Chris because he's on the other side of the glass and he's, you know, the producer of the show. You pointed out of me? And, you know, that's, that's one of the first. And we would play the, and now the show open.

Wait a minute, stop for just a second. I wasn't finished with my story. So with the computer system that we have that runs our, you know, audio and whatever we use for the show, there's a, you know, a little screen that opens up that has our show music and stuff on it. And I, and I point out, I'll post a picture to, uh, to, uh, at Jeffrey JFR, the show clips that we use from time to time, and we add new stuff and we take stuff away. Apparently someone found it necessary to take away the show open.

I don't know why. I mean, it's an ominous sign, actually, come to think of it. I don't like that. Now that I'm thinking about it, I don't like that. Why was it? Oh, it's still there. Okay. Whoa.

My neck. My back. Oh. Oh, man. Can't. Oh, God. Well, sir, you were not in the bus. I was standing on the corner, though.

And, uh... Yeah, but you were not inside the bus. I was waiting to catch that bus. And, oh, my neck. Oh. And so you were sitting on the bench. Yes. Well, waiting.

I was waiting for the bus. And I was right there. And I watched it go into the hole. Oh, man. Oh. Yeah. Oh. Took them 10 hours to get that stupid thing out of that hole.

Come on. Well, you got to do some paperwork. Come on. 10 hours to get that thing, I just bring in a stupid tow truck and haul that thing out of there. You got to take pictures. You got to take statements.

Public safety officials say a crane company has been requested. Just get a tow truck and pull it out of there. Well, you don't know what else is safe or not? Are you working for the city? Are you working for a potter now? You don't know if it's safe or not to put more weights around the sinko?

Aren't you from Florida? Don't you know about St. Coles? Chris. What, did Tampa have no sinkholes? Yeah, well, sometimes. Okay, there. But you back up, you hook on, you pull it out. And then boom, that car goes away.

They're done. And then it goes from two to four. This is what's wrong with America. That's what's wrong with America. That we want to make sure that we want to be safe to get a crane so no more people get hurt. It tends too much. You know, but hook the crane up.

You don't have to, I'm not saying the crane's going to be right next to where the bus is in. The crane's got the long chain. You hook it up. You pull it out. Yeah, but it's not like. to have a crane on standby. Okay, I'm sorry, a tow truck, I mean. Okay, I was going to say because...

Why are we waiting for a crane? You're talking about the difference in weight. We're worried about the sinkhole. Yeah, but the crane has a longer reach. So it could be like two blocks away and then get the car up. You're telling me. You're telling me. Yes, I'm telling you that.

Exactly. That there's no semi-trackter tow truck within the sound of that sinkhole in Pittsburgh. No, there probably work. up and pull that thing out of there. No, you don't want to put more weight on Ronda Cinco. Next to you know, Chicago's gone. Why would Chicago be gone if the sinkholes in Pittsburgh? That's a hell of a sinkhole.

That's what I'm saying. You're right, though. I will give you that. You do not want the tow truck to cause a sinkhole big enough to suck up Chicago from Pittsburgh. You're 100% right, so we'll just leave it at that. I don't ever want to think you're wrong there. So breastfeeding now is public, in public,

is finally legal in all 50 states. Right. My first, oh, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. Hey, no, no, no. We don't want to trigger anybody. We've got a jazz hand. So breastfeeding in public is legal now in all 50 states. Those of you watching live on,

watching us record live on the podcast here on the 29th of October. No, that's not possible. 2019, you saw the applause of the jazz hands because we don't want to trigger anybody. How is it possible that it was? wasn't legal somewhere to breastfeed in public. Well, and people don't want to see boobs. For years, there were just two states, Utah and Idaho. Good job, Utah.

That did not have laws in place to protect nursing mothers who need to breastfeed in public. Well, what do they mean by breastfeeding? Protect, to protect them, right? I mean, so you could breastfeed. Did we have, were we having like girls or women, mothers being thrown to jail because they were at the park and like the baby was hung up?

and they took a booby out. I guess. Because most of the women's have respect and they have that little big blanket on Papa home. Don't start with me with that respect with a little bit of blanket. If a mother wants to breastfeed her child,

she can breastfeed her child. So you talk about me not listen to you. You didn't listen to me. I said most mothers, I know. I said most mothers out of respect. I know that I was actually talking to him anyway, but go ahead. Most mothers out of respect.

Most mothers out of respect. cover up so I don't have to see them. Don't you say? Maybe. You know what? Maybe. The legislation at first date of a woman may breastfeed in any place of public accommodation irrespective of whether the woman's breast is uncovered during an incidental to breastfeeding. Yeah, no kidding.

Incidental? Yeah. So oops. Oh, my boob is out. Oh, my boobie is out. Before the baby gets up there. Oh, okay. But like I said, you have a blanket on top of them.

But Republican Representative Kurt Webb thought the wording would lead to immodesty. Representative Kurt Webb is an idiot. He's a Republican? That's what it says. That's who makes it a better time. This seems to say you don't have to cover up at all. I'm not comfortable with that. Oh, my God.

It's a... I'm just not. This is not like a porn. It's really in your face. The second part of the bill removed. It just now reads that women are permitted to breastfeed in any place of... public accommodation. Seriously, when has a boob cause an issue?

We've done studies where boobs extends the life of the guy. I mean, we have females around America right now exposing their breasts for breast catcher awareness. Kayla, Lauren, and Julia. We talked to them yesterday. And they went again last night. Again to the stadium because they're not a lot of going outside and they lifted the shirt what they actually do and they were right.

They have some pink ribbons and say shag mag. Like, I want to know an FBI report of how many incidents happened because a boo was shown. If you're in a public place and I don't care where that public place is, I don't care. Park. It doesn't. I don't care. We're at a park. Any public place.

I don't care which public park. Yeah, we're at the park. Grand Central Park. New York City. Grand Central Park. Because that's where the trains come in and it's not really a park, it's a station. But anyway, so let's, let's,

I know you're thinking of Central Park. I know what you're thinking of. That's fine. Someday go to New York and learn what it is. Now, any place, I don't care what place, and what any public place you want to go to, and a female has a little baby and is breastfeeding that child.

And you are offended by that, walk away. No, but she offended me by her boob. keep walking. No, no, but her boo. And here's an idea, you don't even have to look. No, I have to look because there's a boob on site. Let's say it's an incidental boobage. Oh, incidental boobage.

Boom. Oh, she's got a baby in her arms. You boobie that. And she's getting ready to breastfeed her baby. But I saw the full breath. I saw the full breath, Jeffrey. Oh, my gosh. That woman should be a, that is absolutely agonizing.

That that is still in the criminal justice system. Right? I mean, that is unbelievable. case right there. That is unbelievable. It's a salt to my eyes. I don't want my kids to see a boob at the park or at the train station. Or in Chicago.

Or in Chicago. Or wherever. It doesn't matter. Or the Pittsburgh single is. Wherever. Wherever. Yeah, Chicago. Yeah, right. That was Chicago Pittsburgh. Never mind. It's not. It's just unbelievable to me. So all 50 states now,

so a woman does not have to cover? she just put her boob out and are you like are you now if I could go back to the page that I was on would be wonderful and are you working for Representative Kurt Webb now? No but I want to just show their breasts

and it could lead to immodesty now now you don't make sure where we're on the law so when my wife starts breastfeeding I'll be like oh you need to cover up you know it's legal here in Texas you could just Do whatever you want. See, that's what, and that's what Kurt Webb, they just whip it out.

Well, okay, so most women, you're right. Most women don't just whip it out. And they know. They have the blanket or they have the, you know, you have the breastfeeding blanket, but there are times when you get the kid and you get the kid, so it locks onto the breast to feed, and then you cover it up because the child needs to be warm.

You need to be a little bit warmer, but it is a beautiful thing. I just, if you're offended by a mother breastfeeding a baby, I mean, you know what? You know what? I wasn't going to go that far because that's a bit extreme. Or aren't they being extreme by being offended? You know what? Yes, they are.

So if you're offended by a mother breastfeeding a baby, anywhere. Anywhere. Have a nice night. California burning on such a winter's day. Everybody complaining. California's on fire. Yay. I mean, no, I mean, boo.

California's on fire. Hurricane force wins. Cities are burning again. And you know what? Cut off the power. Don't let gas pumps work to people get gasoline in their cars and get out of there. We don't want fire trucks to be able to pump gas into their cars. What are you kidding me?

I mean, you want to talk about a, you want to talk about a quid pro quo deal with PG&E in the state of California? There's going to be high wins. We're cutting your power. You can't have power. We've decided because there's going to be high wins. Absolutely agonizing. Good luck, California. Good luck.

Good luck and God bless. Our reporting line from California out here. We're trying to get out of the city, but we come to the gas station to get some gas. There's no power. So we're stuck here out of gas, and then we see things happening all around us. Sounded almost like the same fire,

but it was different because we're in a different place. That picture reporting live from California. California burning. Thank you. I'm reporting live out here California burning bill as a live report As you can tell Behind me

Everything is burning up on fire I'm trying to get out of the way of the emper I can't right now I mean good luck Seriously California bless your hearts good luck I don't mean Ain't anybody got time for that Luck of God bless man

Seriously I hope it works out for you Did it sound like I cared about California because I almost did. I thought I sold it pretty good that I cared about California. I mean, I do. I should rephrase that.

I care about the people in California. But the overall, the overall encompassing umbrella of California. Hey nobody got time for that? Yeah, I don't really care about that. I don't really care about that. So I see a story today

that talks about how the national Football League Players Association is now partnered with the National College Players Association. And what are they partnered together for to explore how student athletes can be paid to use their name, image, and likeness?

Now, the NFLPA and the NCAA released their statement. Yesterday, announcing their new alliance under this new partnership, they're going to explore opportunities for merchandise, gaming, and other officially licensed products. We're also going to review how recent developments impact television broadcast revenues in pursuit of fairness.

The partner's plan to ensure group licensing representation that is available to every student at least whose state passes a law allowing them to make money. So if you're in a state that doesn't pass the law, good luck getting college players. Now, the Fair Play Act in California doesn't go into effect until 2023, but it's already on the books. And Florida is doing the same thing. Now, the NCAA currently does not allow athletes to be paid for the use of their name, image, and likeness. However, we just got breaking news that the NCAA will permit athletes to be compensated for their names, images, and likenesses. that's what the board of governors has said because they were meeting today,

Tuesday the 29th of October, 2019. So, man, are we on a slippery slope? I don't know how it's going to work out, but it doesn't, it feels like it's not going to work out well. Players, they do get paid. I don't know if you're aware of that, but they do get paid. they get a stipend to live when they live off campus. If you're a scholarship player and you live off campus,

you get a stipend for food and housing. You also are able to eat at the facilities, the sports training facility. and you get a, I don't know that you get a university food card if you're living off campus, because I think that might be part of the stipend. But that's why players live together. Okay, so like four players and rent a nice, pretty good size house, and, you know, people in college towns make a pretty good living,

renting houses to college, people who go to college and college football players, because they get a pretty pair of price, you get four players that all getting their stipends and they pay the rent, you'll be living large, you get a nice house, and you know,

you're living pretty good. And during the summer, off season, you're able to work. Get paid a fair wage for that job, whatever that job is, as long as it's not,

you know, the last one kid got busted in Tampa, the one, oh, God, I remember, he worked, he played for USF.

He was a quarterback and he was a bartender in the off season, okay? And he was a bartender when he was off, which is fine. You could do that. What you got to, what was happening was the school donors would happen by the bar and order a beer and leave him a $500 tip. They'd say, oh, you got to take a beer.

And then, you might give him a thousand bucks for a beer. That you can't be doing, okay? You have to be a reasonable compensation for that job. I get that. all right so don't wrap me up i'm not done yet don't give me your little finger thing over there in the camera with your thing i got a finger for you too okay i'm tired of people telling me what to do i've lived a life of people telling me what to do this is what the college players this is what the college players are feeling like now i now i'm

on their side of you're on the side of the other side of thing because i want like this i know because that's right i seriously i don't know where we're headed but Wow. This, it doesn't feel like it's a good thing. It doesn't feel like it's a good thing. And I got news for you. Even if your state and your school says you can get paid for your likeness, Bill, the third string guard ain't getting any money.

Okay? So where's he at? Where's he left at? I don't know. Seriously, I don't have the answers. I mean, maybe everybody tries to get a cut of the television money. But then who pays for the stadium and who pays for the schooling and who pays? My taxes does.

Well, no, not really. I mean, at some level... My taxes does. No, you don't know what. Stop talking. Just give me the finger again. Just give me the... Yeah.

Just stop it. Can we just stop the whole thing? We talk a lot about germs on this show because they're an important part of life and death in our world. I mean, no one supports germs more than this show. Thank you. Thank you. I do a separate show, talking Walking Dead once a week. That, you know, I mean, it's all about germs.

So now we have, and we've talked about this show where we have witnessed people in this building, which is, I'm not naming names. No way am I naming names. I'm not naming likenesses, anything. But, you know, it's just know that we've witnessed humans in this building, not washing their hands after the restroom. I'm just saying it's true. So now we have a new study out that reveals failure to wash hands after leaving the bathroom is more likely to spray

to spread drug-resistant E. coli than consuming raw or undercooked meat. According to the study, the potentially fatal bacterium's like... Bacterium's likeliest drought is through human poop

particles which generally spreads through poor bathroom hygiene. I mean, Seriously. Wait, you witnessed someone in this building? Who's not washing your hands when you go to the bathroom?

I have not personally witnessed this. The second hand. I don't. So I'm not naming names. So I'm not doing it. I mean, it's like the Trump phone call. Quit pro quo. I don't know.

I wasn't on the call. I just know what it's typed out. I know it's on the letter. Can we maybe interview one of these people that saw this person now wash their hands? Sure. Get a bit here. Get them in here? Get them in here.

Hey, Jeff, just thought I'd stop by. I want to talk to you a little bit. We need to cover up their voice. You could tell who that is. So, according to this new study, and the colleges in the UK tested samples of beef, pork, and chicken and analyzed results against samples of human feces, sewardge, and blood.

They discovered the strains between human, were similar but different from those found in animals. So, I mean, failure to wash your hands after leaving the bathroom, according to this, more likely to spread drug-resistant E. coli than consuming raw or undercooked meat. I mean, wow. So can we get this person on the line? So, now, I've got second-hand news. And I don't believe second-hand news.

We should not believe second-hand news. I know. I know. I mean, it's just a rumor mill then is all you're doing. Exactly. And we don't feed to the rumors. That's why I didn't mention it. That's why I didn't tell any names. I just know that what I was told is that witnesses have seen. Oh, more than one. Wow. So witnesses. According to the APA journalist format, more than two witnesses, you know, makes it, makes it true.

Really? Yeah. Oh, I've missed that part of the... Yeah. Even in the Bible says that more than two gathered, that's where Jesus is. So... But... Okay, I'll go with that.

That's fine. You know what? That's true. So this actually is true, though. What I'm telling you is that we've witnessed we have a person in this building. Now, there may be more than one person. but we have witnesses that have witnessed one particular person leaving the restroom without washing their hands. Hmm. Interesting.

I know. I know. Now, what it doesn't stay here and what it's alluding to is that you didn't wash your hands after number two. Okay. So my understanding is that these witnesses... Can we just talk to the guy? Because you can give me the same... Just talk to the person. Sorry, I don't know if he's a girl or... Right.

Can we talk to this person? Because if you, if I tell you that it's a guy or a girl, then you know who... You've whittled down some of the guesses, right? Some of the possibilities. Yeah. So can we get the witness in the stand, you honor? Come on it.

Come on. Yeah, we'll change your voice. Sit down. We'll change your voice. We won't let people know who you are. Sit down. Who, cross your legs,

your skirt showed. Whoa, hello. Is it like the trainee that was reading to the kids and flash a bunch of kids? That's a guest. It's just a good guy. Okay.

Okay. Okay. So thank you for coming in. We promise we'll change your, we'll change your voice so people won't know who you are. Because, I mean, it's pretty obvious in this building.

Everybody knows everybody's voice. So you have witnessed someone leaving the bathroom, one of the bathrooms here in Mercury Studios, without washing their hands? I sure have. Well, that's, I mean, is there, I've just got to go by your word? Well, I was in the bathroom and I saw this person go, relieve themselves, and then no water was turned on at the sink, and they just walked out and went on about their day.

So you know who this person is, right? Well, yeah. I mean, he was, I mean, they were standing. I mean, they were in the bathroom at the time that I walked in. And so they left in the time I was still in there. So yeah, right? I'm pretty sure. I know who it is.

So I mean we know now that it's a I mean we're I'm guessing I'm guessing careful we should not be guessing just let the witness say Is the culprit a male or a female? I don't know that I'd like to answer that Because there are days when I identify differently and I may have been in one restroom and not the other I just You know what? I just don't want to answer Is there anything else that you'd like to share with us about that? Well, yeah, I want people to know

that this person is not washing their hands after going to the bathroom and how nasty it is And then I hear you read your stupid story About how people not washing their hands After leaving the bathroom is more likely to spread What do you say? Drug-resistant E. coli That happened when you were saying it, too.

And then consuming raw and undercooked meat is worse than that. Holy God. You guys got a cool computer system because that happened when you were saying it too, Jeff. So anyway, so I'm concerned that we're getting the whole fatal bacterium around the building here. And we need to, somebody needs to say something. Don't you think that it would be best since you're, you know, a witness? to the offense that it would be you to say something. Oh, no, no, no, no, no, not me.

I couldn't do that. It'd be too bad. I don't want to embarrass that person or embarrass me. I mean, I could tell you who it was. I mean, I already have really. And I could tell you who it wasn't that you could talk to them. You know what? You got it.

I will. No problem. I'll make sure that I lay the law down. Next time I see that person in or around the restroom, he's getting a talking to from me. That'd be really nice. Thank you. Appreciate it.

So App Wars are real. The App Wars are real. And we've talked about, I mean, this show is a leading forefront. No one supports App Wars more than anyone. I feel like they show supports a lot of things, and that's not possible. What do you mean is not possible? When you put your support, people support all kinds of things. Yes, but when you want to pull like a true support, that's the only thing you support.

That's not true at all. You don't support like the cops. That's not true at all. Okay. All right, I could be wrong. You could be? You are. That's not true at all.

Everyone supports everything. I support one thing in the one thing. Do you? Yes. What is that? What is it that you support? Disabled veterans. And that's it.

You know what it? support anything else. There's not one other thing in your life that you support. Nope. That's a lie. How is that a lie? Because it's a lie. You support all kinds of things. But you know, whatever, whatever you want to kid yourself with, whatever. And by the way, by the way, I just joked on it. By the way, that's a shame. By the way, I need to come in and hide like you because I love this, just squeeze the... Well, it's not like the bread that you had on Saturday that you choked during the National Anthem. Holy cow. So Jeffrey you can't say this story. I have to say the story because you're the one choking. So

we're at the Mercury One Ball table one with Pat, his beautiful wife, my wife, Jeffrey, his daughter, Sarah Gonzalez, her husband, and our CEO, we're all sitting there and they say, Please rise for the national anthem. They say it was, I mean, the voice of God, me. At this time, when they say, please ride for the national anthem, Jeffie's sitting in a a roll. Well, I just been given a roll. Because I said, oh, you guys got, because when I came back, Pat and Jackie were sitting there.

They had, they had bread carbs. And I was like, well, when do we get rolls? Yeah. And so, uh, they said, uh, Jackie, and Jackie was kind enough. I know now why. To give me her, you can just have mine. I was like, no, I'm not taking a roll. And she was like, no, no, no.

Please. Go ahead. Go ahead. Take my role. Now I should have realized that Pat. Now, I should have realized that Pat had like three quarters of a one sitting there. Yeah, he didn't finish his either. And hers was Brand Spank and New sitting there.

No, please, Jeff. It's not me. So, obviously. After the second. No, please, Jeff, go ahead. You don't get to look like me by saying no to that. Okay? Go ahead.

Then Jeffrey asks for some butter. That's a butter? It's a butter. Jeff, he's putting a roll. he's cracked, you know, breaking into pieces. So I cracked the roll. Yep. And I realized then that, you know, it doesn't,

maybe the outside is a little, a little tough. You know, the inside is soft. Soft. Yeah. It's a kind of roll. Yes. We've all had it before banquet rolls a little harder. The outside, still soft on the inside.

So I break it open, I get the butter. Butter it up. A butter's a little cold, so I'm like, oh. So it's going to take, it takes a little bit to get on. And he goes, no problem. Please rise for the singing of the national anthem. Jeffrey puts it in his mouth and he rise

and this is the point of of no return where I look at him he's like like I don't know to take him serious or just to let him die well I just looked at him to see because I was laughing

everybody's standing for the national anthem Jeffie's turning red his eyes are all watery he's trying to grab a cup of water and a glass he dinks the glasses Three tables turn. Three tables turn around.

While I'm still laughing next to him, because I don't know if he's being stupid. I don't know what he's doing with his life. I'm here. I'm here, dude, I'm dying here. Then he drinks a big-ass cup of water. And he goes, I was choking there.

Oh, sake. By the darling. Jeffie almost died. I did. The Merk and one guy on Saturday. I thank Jackie again too for allowing me to. Take her role. To take her roll.

No, please, John. Did you finish the roll? No, Jeff, go ahead. The answer to that would be no. But why did you finish the roll? What happened? What were you choking? I thought the butter would just slide it through.

The butter did not just, no, that did not happen. No. Holy cow. So in real life you were choking? And I was just being a jerk laughing at you. Yes. Oh, I feel so bad now. Yeah.

Do you? I do. Okay. So now back to what I was talking about with your little handicapped veteran thing. Okay. I'm sorry. What's the one thing you support?

The Wounded Warriors? No, you said disabled veterans. You said disabled veterans. You didn't say a specific cause. You did the overreaching, I support one thing and one thing only. Disabled veterans. Yes.

That's why you choked on Saturday. So. Keep saying that. You're going to choke on Saturday again. we're going to discuss a little bit of disabled veterans. Oh, we are? On this show. Good.

About time. This week. About time. One of them we're going to highlight, as a matter of fact. We're going to highlight a specific human being who claims to be a disabled veteran. Okay. Note the words claims to be disabled veteran. Oh, so this means that you're going to bring some evidence?

Oh, there's going to be plenty of evidence, my friend. of that person not being disabled or being disabled? Of the ruse that this disabled veteran is putting over on America. And whereas my, where are you worried about tax dollar funding? This is a problem. And I wonder who that person could be. I wonder too because I like this. I like this.

I like this, you know, CTF, you know, breaking the news. Reporting live from disabled veterans headquarters. Wait, wait, wait, we're all over. We are all over. Where's the disabled video? Right over there. Right there. That's where we spark the van.

That's where we report. Did you put the antenna? Did you put the antenna up? You got to reach the station. Yeah. You're talking about you put the antenna up. Of course, we want to report back to the station. Right.

Headquarters. Tonight. The ruse put on by a so-called veteran that he's disabled. We'll cover him live at 11. Back to you, Bill. All right, take the antenna down. We're out of here.

Wait, you're supposed to still do the reporting from the Veterans Headquarters? Oh, you want to put it back? Yeah. No, take it down. It's windy. We'll put it back up. Oh, you're California now? We'll put it back up when it's time to do the report. It's ridiculous. So I've all kinds of stuff to talk to you about, too,

and then we can break off on a stupid veteran thing. Which it was so. So Netflix, I mean, this is kind of cool, actually, but there's all, I mean, the App Wars are on fire. That's where I got, that's where I was started. It was the App Wars. And now I'm back. I know where I was.

Welcome back. I know where I was now. Because I started with talking about Netflix rolling out a new feature for streaming on mobile devices. and it's going to kick off on the Androids On the what? On the Android. I don't know what that is.

You're going to be able, if those of you who have Netflix on your Android device may have noticed new functionality. So you're able to speed up playback. Oh, that is so cool. So you'd be able to watch the shows on a faster thing just like you listen to podcasts. To podcasts, you listen to times one, times two. That's pretty cool. So.

But why would you do that? Is that you trying to binge faster? Yeah. Binch faster, you know, they're trying to find little quirks to get subscribers. But are you really watching? Are you really watching? If you're going to do like that? Well.

Because everything's skipping. It's like times. Are you really listening if you're doing that to podcast? Yes. Okay, well, then there's your answer for watching. Download and subscribe to more content at the blaze.com slash podcasts. But you're not really. You're not really.

Oh, thank God you fix it. I guess I was going to be so pissed if you ended the show like that. I would have been so pissed. You're not really, right? I mean, it's not. No, you don't watch it. Yeah, it's tough. Audio is different.

Now, you want, well, yes. But now I do watch, you know, when I record something on DVR, and my wife gets mad at me because she likes to fast skip through the commercials. Yeah? I'd rather, I like to fast forward so I see them. Okay, got it. I was like, oh, I haven't seen that one before, and I rewind back and I'll watch the commercial. Well, that's sad.

That is sad. I mean, that's just, that's what I do. But I like to, you know, I like to see what commercials there run. Nobody watches commercials. That's not true. Well, obviously, yeah, we just learned that today. That's not true. You're the one person in America that's supporting the commercial.

I don't think that's true that I'm the one person in America. Okay, sorry. The two of you out there that are over 100 years old are still watching this commercial. I'm happy that I get to fast forward through them, but I still want to see what they're. But why, though? But why? Because you need to see it all?

For my work. I just feel like I feel like I feel like I don't see it. I need to know what commercials are running, what content is being produced out there. And has that played out in your real life where? Oh, Chris. We're like, hey, did you see that commercial? And then, oh, I did see that commercial.

Yeah. Oh, okay. Yeah. Happens all the time. Duh. Wow. because I do know that when you talk about talking walking dead

you do talk about commercials during that show I do and it's very interesting those commercials I'm interested on because it's like a commercial within a commercial but you still have a commercial oh yeah I mean they've started that they started that they started that and the NFL does it too sometimes I saw that on the yeah I saw that in the NFL

and then boxing those to do that too yeah I mean they've got to be that that is enhanced revenue for those now yes because it's like you're talking No way they're charging full price. No, if that's a different price scale for those commercials. So, yes.

I can buy into the reduced screen commercial or I can buy a regular commercial. But all that does is lengthen the commercial break. Yeah, because now we still have to have a- That we've expanded. We still have a five-minute commercial break or a three-minute commercial break or a two-minute commercial break. Whatever the hard number is. They're never two minutes.

Whatever the hard. It's between five and eight. Whatever the hard commercial. So five and eight. Yeah. Two, three, four. Yeah, five and eight. They, uh, then before they get to that, they have to give you this one.

They give you the minimized one. Yeah. So you're still watching, you're still watching the live content and you have the commercial. The commercial. I mean, that's genius. But I feel like I'm being cheated. As a commercial, like if I'm the little guy within the screen, I feel like I'm being cheated. I know.

Because are they really watching my product. Odds are not. Because I see it, the main one I see is when I go to the barbers. shop and they have all the sports on all the TVs. I see the play still playing on the top right, but the bottom right, you know, they got the cars with the, all right, all right, all right guy, you know, at the bottom. But they're not really playing, right? I mean, that's the thing.

No, they're like on screen, but you're just seeing what's happening at the stadium or, you know, at the court or whatever. But the game is not being played. No, no, no. But you can see the action that the guys. And if I'm a fan of that particular sport, I'm watching what's going on. I'm not paying attention to the car. However, what that.

does do, though, is you are seeing the product. So like if I buy, if I buy, say in a game, I buy two minimized ads and then a full ad. Okay, so I'm in. So you're buying, that's, you're getting three ads for the price of maybe two. Okay. So are you saying that it's less money for the within? The minimized one? There's no way they're charging top dollar for that.

No, I believe that we charge top dollar for that. Because you are interrupting the main... No way. Because people aren't paying attention. There's no way they... Yeah, but see, you're thinking of it as the guy who's buying the airtime. You're damn right.

I'm thinking about it as the guy that is selling you that airtime. You're cutting... I almost said F you back. No, for a little bit. That was awesome, though. That was pretty cool. That was pretty cool. You're sitting across a meeting table.

No, no. No, no. Now, you know how Jeffrey negotiates. when he gets upset, he throws a nephew on there. Fee, I don't like that. I was another. No, but we're not doing that. Me seeing that's the TV network, you are. I'm sure that's their argument, but no.

That cannot be. Well, then I'll give it to the next side that is willing to give me that money. Okay, well, then fine. You can sell you a little super car to someone else. I know. I know, and that's the way the networks feel. I realize that, but there's no. No way are they charging top dollars.

They are. They are charged top dollar. They should be thrown in jail. Plus it's a new feature. So you have to charge the new feature fee. If they're doing that, they should be thrown in prison. If they're not doing that, I want them all thrown in jail. If they're not doing that, the board that, you know, governs that network needs to fire the CEO.

I want them all thrown in jail if they're doing with that. How is it possible? Because there's no way that should be cheaper. That's a cheaper ad. People are paying less attention, but they're still seeing it. The argument is they're still seeing it, right? My argument of buying it is I want the, I want the minimized screen for a cheaper cost because they're still seeing my commercial. And people are not going to fast forward.

And then I'll buy one if they DVR it, no way. Yeah, that's what I'm saying. Like, people are not going to fast forward because, one, they're still looking. And I don't know that, and I don't know that your DVR if you. If they recognize it as a commercial? I don't think they do. They might not. That's why I'm saying because they've expanded.

That means you've expanded the break room. Yeah. And that's still content. That was, yes, that is within the content of the programming. So your DVR is going to still think that you're in content mode, not in promo, which is smart for the TV. Yes, it is. Because now you can't skip it on the DVR if it's possible. Right. If it's

not possible, then again, the chairperson of this company needs to be fired because he's not maximizing my dollar. But he is. But he's not there. No, yes he is. He is maximizing. He's expanded he's expanded

the break. For one minute. For one minute. You know how much that is? How much is that? That's money that is. That's why radio stations have squeeze boxes. on. That's why Rush Limbaugh on radio stations across America has that squeeze box on. If you listen to Rush across America, I would venture to say. Well, I can listen to here. I have to listen from across America.

Yes, you have to listen from across America. Every radio station I listen to that plays the air is the Rush Limbaugh show, and they do it to all the shows, but the rush is the one that you can really noticeable. And you squeeze it for an extra minute. All right, they run through a squeeze box. What do you mean by that? The audio goes into a box. Okay. Gets compressed. Okay.

Comes out the other side. That's what you hear. Yeah, you don't hear them. You hear the end, all right? And it gives the radio station an extra minute of commercial time in that show. To get that money out of it. Correct. So when you're listening to Rush and you hear the open, I never forget the first time I heard Rush's open, not squeezed.

Really? I thought something was wrong. I was like, what, what happened? What's going on? What's, why is it, what's going on with something wrong with Mara? Yeah, what's going on? No, it's just not run through the squeeze box. Oh, that did they forget to, uh, to milk it.

And sometimes the local radio station here in Dallas, Texas, I won't name radio stations, don't want to do you. They forget to shut the squeeze box off for the live show that comes on after, so that ends up getting squeezed to it. I mean, it's criminal. That's criminal. You talk about the other one? That's more criminal than the example we just gave out.

I disagree. Of course you do, because you're a radio guy. Of course, you're a radio guy. That's our way of having a minimized commercial break. And that's what you need to subscribe to the podcast. And look, and even like with networks like Westwood Wan and Premier, I mean, they've got it down so much now so that you can target, you have to pay for a national ad.

All right. So if you pay, like if I want to advertise on Rush or Glenn or Sean, whatever the case is. Or Jeffie. Well, I'm not, no, that's a little different. My ad campaign is a little bit different than Rush, Sean, and Glenn. Oh, wow, really? Yeah.

You're going to put yourself like that? Well, it's just a little different ad campaign. Oh, it's a different ad campaign. Oh, okay. But what they'll do is you target, you can target parts of the country. Yeah. So like if I want to advertise on Glenn in the mid-center of the country, East Coast or the West Coast, I buy that time. So, I mean, really, you can have four different commercials.

Targeted for that area. Across the country within the same minute. Wow. You see what I'm saying? Or you can pay the top dollar and have that commercial air all over them. Right? So, I mean, it's genius, really, is what they're doing, but it's really what television is doing is criminal,

really is what television is doing. If they're charging top dollar, for that minimized commercial, that is criminal. They better be charging top dollar. You work for TV now? And by the way, those little bars, there's like, it says like either NFL or something like that, they were paying money for whatever they're going to put in there,

like the dentist. Oh, yeah. They better be putting money for that too. Like, I want to see that whole screen dollar bills. It is. already. It is already. It's just a, you know what? It's the television screen. It's like it's a NASCAR.

Oh, absolutely. That's how I want to see my TV. I do too. A NASCAR. I mean, it might as well be, right? Me too. I'm all for that. Top left is my dental, top right, is my ankle stuff and the pillow on the bottom, my pillow. And we're going to give you a little square down here at the bottom for local stations. Local gets that corner.

Yep. Yep. If you don't take it, we're taking it. Yeah, we're going to put another Right. We have a fill. We have Bill's pants that we're going to put in there. And if you don't take it, Bill's pants is up. And Charles and Bill pants loves when you don't take it. You ain't lying. So sell the corner. Sell the corner to Joe's pants in Philadelphia or Bill's pants is taking it. I'll tell you that. I mean, that's the way it works, right? Now that's why my ad campaign is just a little bit different. And if you subscribe to Chewing the Fat with Jeff Fisher, you'll see how that campaign works differently than. A lot of the other shows. Hold on, we have that system for the show. We do.

And that system is a little different than other shows. You'll see, subscribe. Just subscribe to Chewing the Fat with Jeff Fisher. Just go to the blaze.com slash podcast and you'll notice the difference.
