And now, a Blaze Media podcast. Welcome to it. For those of you excited over this Thanksgiving, as we're back from this big, long, extended weekend for Thanksgiving. If you, like me, got excited when you saw the headline, Twitter will remove inactive accounts and free up usernames in December. Yay! You're thinking, oh, that special Twitter account you've wanted for a while that isn't available.

will become available. You know, like at Jeffey. Don't tweet at him, though, because then he's going to use it, and it won't be an inactive account. And I was thinking, cool, let's get rid of some of them, even though I may actually have a couple of those inactive accounts. So I had to go back and make sure I tweeted from them quickly. But no, to no avail.

Twitter said, we apologize for confusion caused by its plan to remove inactive accounts. We're not going to remove any accounts until it offers a way to memorialize those belonging to the deceased. What? Look it up. If they're dead, don't get rid of the account. If they're not dead, give it to me. So I was reminded over the holiday weekend that, you know, guests come to your house. guests come and they stay and they have a good time and then they usually leave.

I know many of you facing this winter storm racing across the country may have had guest stay that extra day or so waiting for the storm to go away. Did you see that we name him now winter storms? Of course. I didn't know that. We started that a few years ago. So this one is Ezekiel. I like it.

Yeah, we've started that a while ago. they've got to have names so that we blame somebody know how bad they are okay no problem I'm pretty sure I think that was the weather channel yeah it was a weather channel yeah I was listening to a story this morning

like oh here we go we're starting to name our winter storms which is kind of cool though it makes sense it's been at least three years if we're going to name you know the hurricanes that come from you know Puerto Rico might as well just do any other storms yeah we should name

tornadoes. Ooh. Now those are just ranked. Those are just ranked. Yeah. Zero through five. That would never make sense to me, but okay. Zero through five is zero to five.

They still look at a zero tornado still does damage. And we found out this year. Believe me. So 60% of the people are going to be staying with family or friends for an extended holiday season for that visit. 21% will be hosting somebody this year and 63% saying that they enjoy hosting their family and friends. Yes, it's enjoyable because you know they're going to come and leave.

And we have a nice day. Now, there are some faux paws that make people very angry. And I don't know, I may be guilty of some of this when I used to come and stay at people. Now, now I just, if you're going to, if you want to come to my house, come. Just come. What's the address? I'd rather.

I'd rather, I'd rather just be at my house. It's fine, whatever. I don't care. You know, it's right there, Chris. You know the address. It's right there. In fact, you should come to the old house because that's where we're at. Plenty of room in that house.

I still don't know the address, but I could drive around and figure it out. Plenty of room. Just go there. If we're not there, we'll be there soon. Okay. So people get upset over guests arriving unannounced without an invitation. Hey, thought we just come by. The poppings.

No one likes the poppins. Other faux pas snooping around. In what way? Well, you know, you just kind of look through the medicine cabinet. Well, yeah, you have to do that. You look through a couple of drawers. Yeah, you have to do that. See what's a, you know, you're in the guest room.

What do they got stashed in here? I did that. I do that a lot. Yeah. So for sure you need to be invited to my old house, not the new one. Break or damage host belongings. Okay, well, that, you know, that may happen because of an accident. Yeah, like my dog.

Like snooping around. Yeah, like my dog. Like don't bring your dog. Oh, my dog comes everywhere. Then not at my house. No, dogs don't come. No. No.

Sorry. We have to bring the dog. Then you ain't coming. Sorry. Wish you could be here. Life's a bitch. But I already said yes to the invite. Life's a bitch.

Leave a mess when departing. I don't do that. I clean up. You got to clean up, right? You have to. You got to clean up. Unless they tell you, hey, just put the bed sheets on the floor. That's still not leaving a mess.

Like strip the bed because that's what I do every time I leave like my in-laws. They make us strip all the beds. I don't blame them. 45% of the people say too loud. Too loud. They get bothered by guests that are too loud. And that comes with the territory, though. Does it?

No, you have to be respectful of the people. Yeah, but everybody's having fun, playing games, and it's getting loud. Too loud. Smoke. You go to be a guest and then you have to smoke. Oh, you don't smoke. Nobody smokes a house. Or around the house.

Well, you can smoke outside. No, you go 50 feet away from the house. No, stop it. No, you do. Government rules in this house. No. No. No.

Outside. Good enough. At least 50 feet away from the property. No. Leave a mess in the bathroom. That comes with the territory. No, it doesn't. Keep it clean.

Straighten up after yourself. It's very simple. That's respect for the people that you're visiting. R-S-P-I-C-T. Stay up all night watching TV with the volume up. Again, comes for the territory. You're invited other people. We want to watch some Netflix.

Bluetooth those headphones bad. But if you're going to stay up later than the rest of the house, I want those headphones Bluetooth to the TV. Plug it in, baby. I don't want to hear it. Go out and come back drunk. No, that's you're staying. If you're staying at someone's house, you go out,

you party, you come back all drunk. And that means you're going to be loud. Yeah, obnoxious. When you're drunk, hearing seems to go. So you have things have to be a lot louder. And then you're going to puke a little. It's possible, which leaves the bathroom all. The bathroom is something to clean up.

Sheets. Sheets. You end up drooling. and sweating and all over the seats. You pee somewhere that it's not the toilet. Ooh, yeah, that's bad. Yeah, or you sleep somewhere you're not supposed to sleep. The clothes hamper smells like urine.

I don't know why. Too demanding as a guest. Yeah, too demanding as a guest. Oh, I don't eat that. Oh, I don't like that. Oh, you know, I was looking in the fridge. You're a little low on eggs. Go get some.

Oh, no, I'm a guest. I know. I feel like that. See, if I invite you to my house. No, I don't eat that. No, no, that's happening. Yeah, I don't want that. Listen, I happen to look at the fridge.

Nothing in there. Nothing there's for me. Nothing in there looks good. Can you do a run? Can you send one of your do boys do a run? I mean, you know what? I'll tell you what, I'll even go. I'll even go.

But I'm bringing back. Oh, if you go, that's fine. I don't mind that. I don't mind that. If you say, hey, there's nothing in the fridge I like, I'm going to go get something and bring back. I'm like, good. Absolutely.

But you're mad if I say, can we get something that I like? Oh, yeah. I'm piss. Because I try my best to get you what I think you're like and you still say no. That's a problem. That's upsetting because I'm like,

okay, Jeffrey, oh, I know he likes Coke zeros. So we should have a Kizu Kizzoz. Yeah, I'll fall for that. I know he likes yogurt. Let me get this yogurt. Oh,

I got the wrong yogurt. Yeah. You suck. You die. Dead. And I just haven't to be looking through the pantry and the crackers. I don't like those.

The onion flavor crackers. Yeah. I like the cheese. I like the cheese. I like the cheese. I like the cheese. Well, there's no cheese in the pantry.

But I got potato chips or cheese. There's no dip either. I'm a little disappointed. No, there's no dip. There's no dip, so I don't believe in the dip. You gotta have a little bit of it. There's salsa, though. Yeah, no, no.

It's my old salsa. I need the cheese. Oh, you need the cheese. You need the cheese. Did you make that happen? No, but you, there's an Aldi right next door. You could go to the Aldi. Yeah, no, I'll stay here and make sure the house is safe while you run.

No problem. The other way, I got simply safe. It keeps my house safe and secure. Yeah. No, all it does is show people delivering crap to your house. It doesn't keep your house safe at all. It's ridiculous. It's a new system.

So if you go visit someone over the holidays, try not to do this. Okay, try to show respect for people's homes. That's all. That's all anyone wants. We like to warn people here on chewing the fat. That's what we're here for. Consumer safety. That's what we're all about.

Thank you. No one cares about consumer safety more than this program. Okay. I mean, we got it. We got the. So the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission is warning consumers that T.J. Max, Marshalls, and home goods sold 19 different products after they were recalled between 2014 and this year. So for five years, they're still selling products that were recalled.

What was the source? T.J. Max. Marshall's home goods. And they include infant fatalities. fire choking, explosions, other injuries. Yeah, but if it's not food, who cares? The recall involves 1,200 units of recalled products. I mean...

What's it food? No. Okay, then who cares? These are products that people use. Okay, oh my gosh. My shirt just caught on fire. Okay. Yeah.

Oh, my shoes broke right through. I want to put them on. Inclined sleeper accessory. Portable speakers, Rocking sleepers, rock and play sleepers, glass and ceramic doorknobs, bistro chairs, swivel bar stools, children's cardigan sets, sharper image and frigidere Madeline Slicers. Ooh, we don't like those are bad.

Glass beer mugs, don't. Coffee presses, Oval rattles, cutlery knives, self-balancing scooters and hoverboards, foldable lounge chairs, Ivanka Trump scars, I mean, they're going to choke you to death, careful. Children's light up watches, full of a wood patio chairs, gardeners eat the light up decorations. I mean to tell you. Oh, now you stop.

That's it. Were these mandatory recalls or were these like, hey, just for your safety, we think you should bring these back? Out of an abundance of caution. There it is, see? So keep selling them.

Out of a bonus of caution, the children's light up watches blinded, they're probably blinded a kid. Tough. Don't look at... It makes them stronger. It doesn't make them stronger.

Rub some dirt on it. Rub some dirt on it, you'd be fine. It doesn't matter. They lost their eyesight. Makes them stronger. Now they have superhearing. So just be careful with the products you purchase. And beware.

I mean, stores are selling products that have been recalled. Again, was this a mandatory recall? Was this a maybe you should not sell this? I feel like these are mandatory. It doesn't say... See, I don't care what you feel. You tell me that all the time. I don't care about what you feel like.

I always care about what I feel like. Yeah, no, but we don't. Always care about what I feel like. If any of these items, you can get the refund or replacement. So I feel like that's mandatory. I feel like that's mandatory. Well, if it's been for five years, so that means that watch I've been using for six years now, I can go return it. Should have been recalled years ago.

Your kid, your could should not have, should not be. blind. You shouldn't have just taken the, oh no. Oh, Billy. You what? You can't see? Billy. Oh, no. What happened? Did you look at the watch? Oh, no. I told Grandma not to buy you that. From TJ Max or Marshall. Yeah. Wait, we're going to check. We're going to feel where the, where the watches were. It's Marshall. It has to be Marshall. Children's light up watches recalled by MCV. Uh, contact TJ Max or Marshalls. Yeah. Does that one toy you find in the aisle that nobody wants. The toy section.

Yeah, the toy section is like, there's like two of them just hang in there. One of them doesn't work. The other one is half broken. That's the one you get. Yeah, the half broken works. It still lights up. Yeah.

It can still blind the kid. We're buying that. And speaking of consumer warnings. Again, this is for your safety. The FBI, this is a warning. Okay, just a warning from the FBI about your smart TV. We know that they're watching us. Yes.

If we know that. Be prepared. Glenn talked about this like two weeks ago on a Saturday podcast. I'm telling you, FBI recommends placing black tape over an on-use smart TV camera. This is big tape. This is big tape. Keeping your smart TV up to date with the latest patches and fixes, the latest patches would be duct tape. That's the latest patches.

I'll tell you that. When I see a person's camera with a little bit duct tape on it, that is a stupid, thing in the world. You say that until it's your picture online doing things that you didn't want people to know you were doing. I'm already doing those things. So what? Exactly.

So what? You don't want it filmed. A person's home is their kingdom. Privacy. I have six cameras in my house at this moment. You have six cameras in your house that filmed Dingleberries delivering packages. It's all you ever do. Well, yeah, the other stuff I keep it, you know, in the indoor network.

I was able to hack in and take those pictures. I would love for you to take this picture? Oh, absolutely. Think about it. I could think about it. It would be like the Netflix black mirror episode with the politician and the pig. It would be just like that.

Except it would be Chris and the dog. Yes, Chris and Thor, the god of thunder. That doesn't look like thunder. So did you have a nice Thanksgiving? I hope you did. I mean, it was, you know, you had the family, the friends, you got the big meal, you got to watch the parade. Oh, wait, the Thanksgiving Day Macy's parade.

Rating's way down for the NBC parade. It's sad. It's sad, because I love the parade. I'm a fan of parades. Did you watch it? Yes. But did you see that they're pushing people to watch via the app? They would tell them people to go watch over there.

Because they had more stuff. They were getting behind the scene. 60 and you could be in the parade. I don't know why they did. Like Al Roker, I poop my pants, Al Roker. You know, he's... He has to be there. I know.

He has to. This is like his 26th or 27th year ago. You know, good for him. Good for him. It's fine. But you know he's going to be out there. I know that they had the big deal about some, the stick of butter that interrupted him out there on the street and stuff.

That was hilarious. That was funny. But he's out there with his, on his, the Al Roker mobile or whatever. and he's got the helmet on. If NBC knows he's doing that, why don't put a camera on the helmet? Yes. Why not have the Al Roker cam?

Yes. I thought was just dumb. The Al Roker P.O.V. It was just dumb. Yes. Yeah. What's the issue with the butter? Al Roker's being a clown and a clown

joined the clown show. Thank you. Thank you. And I did see they okayed at the last minute they okayed the balloons. They did, but they were way slow. Way. They were like dragging those balloons.

We had one, we had one big accent. too. I think it was... Ronald McDonnell. Got the slicing. He was so low that the leg blew out. So it was very disappointing. We didn't have Millie flying off into the buildings. I wanted that bad. I wanted that. I wanted that so bad. I wanted a soupie just go, oh, into the sky. Oh, there goes. I wanted it so bad. It's too windy. They couldn't hold it. But they had, you know, they brought it really low. They were dragging the balloons. Yeah. It was bad. They were dragged. It was bad. Like, might as well

would not have the balloons. It's bad. Because so we're just dragging them on the floor. Plus, I got to say, I realize that it's a big advertising sales thing. I get it. I completely understand it.

And that's exactly what it should be. I mean, it's the Macy's Day parade. I mean, Macy's has spent a lot of money on this parade every year and, you know, they're selling alone. Yeah, I mean, it's huge. It's just a drive-itizing, yeah. But NBC, at least try to make it like it's not.

And they've given up. That's why the ratings are down. They've given up trying to make it like it's just an entertainment thing into. And here comes the float sponsored by this company. And here's so-and-so to sing a song for this company. Be sure to purchase goods from this company. Now let's go watch the performance in front of Macy's, where you can purchase this product from this company.

It's just, okay, stop. At least try to fool me. At least pretend a little. And by the way, I'm sorry, I didn't recognize another artist. Except for Black Eye Peace. And there's only three of them. Not the full P's were there. Oh, no.

Yeah. Oh, no. The black was there. What about eyes? I was there. Oh, just P's gone. Peace was on. Oh, that's disappointing.

When P goes. I know. and I don't know where she is. It's over, man. Whoa, wait. Yeah. Peas a girl. Yeah.

Me too movement. I'm out. Oh, there you go. I'm out. Apparently black guy. Black guy got into the piece. Me too, movement. Black guy's gone.

We're out. I'm like, I can't do this anymore. And the funny days, like they brought the boy band from South Korea. Ah, the K-pop stuff. Yeah. Okay. But they couldn't afford the real boy band. So we just brought N.

N.T. Sue 767. instead of they're part of the K-pop movement just move on and I'm looking at him I'm like yes BTS and they're like and now

NT7 0-056 to 2 yeah and they're part of the movement they're part of that whole big ground swell of K-poppers it's really just agonizing and then Celine Dion opened up

and Celine's not I don't know where Celine was like in the back room yeah she was yeah she's in the back room sitting there like I'll sing a song for you from here from my new album and it's not going to be anything exciting.

I'll tell you that. It's going to be this boring ballad. And I'm just going to sit here and I'm going to pretend. I'm going to pretend I'm in the back room of Macy's, but I'm really in my house. Yeah, I'm not going to be. Satellite. Yeah.

And, you know, happy Thanksgiving. I'm out. I was sad. The whole thing was sad. Just bad. Now, I will say, I don't want to hear it anymore either about why our stores open on Thanksgiving. it's wrong. $4.2 billion online?

Absolutely. Maybe because that's online. That's not all stores. People are working. People are working. When you place that order in Amazon, it doesn't automatically get into a box and that box jumps into the Amazon truck.

Wait for the next day. We don't have people working today. We need those boxes moved. Yes. Because I expect. Absolutely. I expect. I want two,

man, you know what? We're out of toothpaste. I want it at my front door. Right then. I click, I click purchase. Free one day. Ding dong. In fact, you know what? Free one day also means it could possibly get there earlier too. And they drop it off.

I'm a fan. On the way to the house. I'm a fan. Right. Let's just drop it off, man. I'm good for it. Let's go. And Black Friday shopping, huge.

Online sales, 7.4 billion. I mean, people are shopping, baby. don't use your smart TV though don't do it they could log in the hackers could log in get to your router you're going to need tape on the cameras this is all there is to it whether you're shopping with your laptop

your tablet your phone have some sort of ready tape that can stick again though on your phone because you're going to want to take pictures so have that been created because I really don't care I'm with you on that on the cameras

I you know whatever I know you're in my house I let you in. Go ahead. But do we have, like, I have, you know, a couple of cameras on my phone, front and back, along with the microphone. And when I want to record something or take a picture or something, it's there. It's at the ready. I don't want to peel off a tape or anything. Do we have, like, slide covers?

Inventive, they've got the slide covers for that, right? We have to purchase some of those because I want to feel safe. And I can only feel safe if my cameras are covered up. Stop it. I feel like we're coming off the extended Thanksgiving Day weekend extravaganza, and we're just informing the public, you, the listener, here of Chewing the Fat, about scams and consumer confidence and crime that could be inflicted against you. I mean, we're here for you. Consumer safety.

But again, I feel like consumer safety is our main priority here on, well, if you're listening live on the 2nd of December, 2019, it's Cyber Monday.

So in Kentucky, the sheriff's office is warning people about a new scam. I feel like this is not a new scam. It may be a new scam in Kentucky, but it's not a new scam. deputy says a caller is going to call and say your electric is going to be shut off if you don't pay your bill and you know they're saying well one guy you know got the call that he called the electric company and electric company confirmed that it wasn't them it's a scam so they're reminding everyone that you know if you get a call like this reported and tell your friends it's a scam well i feel like yeah if you just get a random call on your on your cell phone saying you owe money

odds are you don't and I will say that we were all happy about the new law in Texas that was supposed to save people from robocalls and we're like yes but then we remembered that most of us don't have Texas area codes on our cell phones

so it doesn't affect us I still I believe robocalls have gotten they are now more of them. I mean, I get at least 10 a day. It's amazing. Now, I get this call probably three times a week, and I'm thinking maybe I need to act.

I need to act soon because it could cost me some serious money. Hi, this is Ann with the warranty department. Hi, Ann. A record show that your vehicle warranty has expired or is about to expire. This is your final courtesy call as you should have received mail. Wait, how come you've called another 85 times? To a warranty specialist. Warranties are mileage and time sensitive.

They must be extended before your vehicle reaches certain mileage. Again, press five. Be connected to a warranty specialist. I guarantee. Why is she yelling at you when she says five? She's yelling at me. Remembering it to have somebody. Press five.

Five because she wants that five press, baby. She wants to know that you've answered. She wants to know that you're there. She wants your information. I mean, that hacker is in, baby, when you click five. It's done. Oh, my God, don't. Don't do it.

Well, it's not on the phone, so we're okay. But if she hears that when she's on the phone. And I love that this is my final warning, except that they call every other day, if not every day. That's the final warning, though. That's the final warning, though. I think, I think, I think Anne could be a scam. Please don't tell me I can't eat at Chick-fil-A anymore.

Don't do it. Don't do it. No, don't do it. On the hand to me with that sounder. Turn that thing off. I will not have it. I will. Ain't nobody got time for that?

Ah, come on. So now we're supposed to not, when we hate Chick-fil-A, I'm not eating it, What a Burger. It ain't happening. It's just not going to happen. In-N-out. We still got in-and-out. Man, we do.

We do. But we're going to find out the Din and Out donated to some freak group to. Oh, they're dead to us. They're just doing bit. Okay, so we're mad at Chick-fil-A. You've got to give me context here because I want to be mad with you. We're mad at Chick-fil-A because in their 2017 IRS filing shows that the franchise made a $2,500 donation. $2,500 to Chick-fil-A is like me throwing a buck at the homeless guy at the overpass.

Okay? Can we be clear about that? We're mad at them for giving up millions to these other groups. $2,500 bucks, please. That's the guy at the table going, I'll just give them something. Let's just play all the rules. I mean, let's play all the sides. I guess there's another, there's a, according to this story, a laundry list.

Okay, is it? But where they gave to pro-abortion and pro-LGB orgs. And prohibition? So at Prohibition. Yeah, they were for and against. But that's them just doing business, right? I mean, they want to open stores. We were all okay with Donald Trump saying he donated to them all.

They all traips through his office, gave, giving them money because he was just, it was a matter of doing business. Now, did in the course of doing business for Chick-fil-A, you know, throwing a dollar, $2,500, to, uh, to the, the Southern Poverty Law Center. Does it help them? No. Why doesn't it help them?

Because now, now you got people on the right saying, oh my gosh, what are they doing? They're going against their beliefs. No, right. No, we can't. And it's never enough for the rage mob.

It doesn't matter. It's still nothing. Which is why, Jeffrey. This is why I always say you never bend a knee to the rage mob ever. Dana Lash Jeff Fisher

but okay sure Dana's got it pinned to her Twitter account sure. So she said it first. Well no, but she pinned it to her Twitter so she said it first. Never do it. Never do it. Because it doesn't matter.

Never do what? You never bend a knee to the rage mob ever. Dana Lash. I'm saying seriously I mean they're just trying to do business I get it

now we're supposed to hate them because they're just trying to do business honestly Jeffrey honest conversation honest conversation does this really mean that we cannot have chik-fil-A because I need to know

I pass a chick-fil-A every day I feel like what I know we're not supposed to work on feelings no we're not but I feel like I feel like we

we kind of been had by him So you that's what it feels like I don't know that that's true They used us But behind the scenes They were like still Trying to do business Right instead of

Isn't that the Cost of business? I know That's where I'm at I really have Because it's the same thing right now And again I don't know how much they gave

To the laundry list of other Pro-Aboration Pro LGBT orgs But $2,500 bucks A dollar. $2,500. Yeah, a dollar.

Seriously, it's like a dollar. It's like me giving a dollar to the homeless guy. It's nothing. Right? I mean, it just doesn't mean it. It means something to me, I'm saying, hey, here's a dollar. And he's thankful for the dollar. But does it do anything for anyone for me giving a dollar?

It's like $2,500. It doesn't. It's a dollar, yeah. Yeah, it just. But again, back to your question. Yeah. Are we supposed to be now be upset and. Carter ties and find our new holy chicken.

Is this what Popeye's trying to do? Yeah. So Popeyes knew about this. I think they did. And they were like, they're about to lose it. Yeah, because they were at Texas and they were open on Sundays. Yeah. And they were trying to get the chicken, get a corner on the chicken sandwich market.

The holy chicken sandwich, though. The holy chicken. And, uh, you know, that whole chicken too tasty. Yeah. I just. So honestly, what do we do? Do we continue our lives like nothing happened? Do we continue bitching about Chick-fil-A?

Because that's like what? Three weeks now that Chick-Fillis dominating the news on them donating or not donating or cutting. Like what do we do? I mean, if you go down a list of everything that they've donated money to. But it's just chicken, though. Like, what happened to chicken to tasty?

If you go down a list to everything that they've donated money to, I mean, millions of dollars to these places. So $3 then. And they gave, you know, $2,500. It was like, here's, okay, here's some money. Shut up. Isn't that what we're supposed to do as Christians?

They're supposed to help the needy? I know. So, like, and I'm not asking the honest question. I know you are. I were supposed to stop supporting them because they helped whoever these people are. I never heard of me. Tell you what I'll do. Okay, here we go.

Tell you what I'll do. Yeah, because I need you to break this down for me. Tell you what I'll do. I'm going to go to Chick-fil-A. Okay. And I'm going to order my regular chick-chick-chifel. sandwich with a chocolate shake. If it doesn't taste as good, if the, if the, if the recipe change.

If the product is starting to slip, I feel like we're done. Because we already, look, they're dominating with this. We've got the stupid story about the Chick-fil-A person calling the guy mad because the Chick-fil-A employee called, called his sweater, ugly sweater. Well, that's what it is. And by the way, your sweater. was a stupid ugly sweater and on top of which

I should have called you ugly nose ring just a thought because he gave a picture yeah he sent a picture of himself with a sweater that's what that's why I'm wearing

yeah so what and they called you ugly sweater on an internal piece of paper which was for them to recognize you it was just so I mean we're

they're taking a beating right I mean they're forever taking a beating I know they are so what continuing to take these meetings so what do we do like I said

I'm going to go to Chick-fil-A. If the product starts to slip, then we're done. It's over. If it's still good? It's still good? We'll come back and do another experiment. We'll continue to experiment. Okay. I like it. Because I'm not.

I can't, Jeffrey. I can't stop eating that. I know. Every morning I get one chicken biscuit on my way here from the Saffa Lake location. Big boy Miguel is out there waiting for me. You know what I'm talking about. Does he know you? Yes, he knows me because I get it. I go every morning on South Lake location,

even though I hate that location, because in a little mountain, you have to turn left, you can't turn right. It's literally, it's very difficult to get out of there. It is. And try to jump back in the highway,

sucks. So little Miguel or Big Miguel, whoever you look at. Have you figured out how to do it yet? Yes, I figured out. Okay, good. Because I was good. I'd give you help.

No, no, we talked about it off air. You figured, you helped me out, which is what I was telling you, wait, they had like this big guy help. Anyways,

that's a matter. But I need to know because that means that I'll be saving about, about $3 every morning. Well, no, because let's be honest, you're going to spend the money somewhere else.

True, I'll go to McDonald's, which is down the street from there. And give me a burrito. Far be it from me. Far be it from me. To make any kind of hazy weight jokes. But it appears to me

that you're not going to give up the sandwiches. So we're past Thanksgiving. into December, it's Christmas time, right? I mean, it is full-blown Christmas time. So I know that, you know, what are my all-time favorite Christmas songs? What the hell is this? Your favorite Christmas song, right?

that you need to be careful because, right? I think we, yeah. I mean, this one needs to be. Okay,

that's good enough. I mean, we've warned the people. They're aware. Oh, crap. there goes the sounder again. I mean, by the time, after so long, so many times, the sounder goes off,

you go, oh, crap. Yeah, like, went off at your house after the tornado. So, as a matter of fact, didn't know it never did. Oh, no, you still waiting for it? Yeah, no, I never did. Now, they say they go off when tornadoes happen. They practice them once a month.

They've gone off other times, but when an actual tornado hit my home, they didn't go off. Well, it was F-0, so I think it's not just drain zeros. All I know is it didn't go off. Okay. A monkey has infected a scientist with deadly herpes B virus. Thank you. I mean, it is the first human case of the extremely rare brain damaging infection.

Oh, never mind. So it's not walking dead. No, it is. The virus kills your brain? I thought like your brain was still active when you were a zombie. Yeah. If it kills your brain, how is this going to... You're still alive.

Oh, okay. I thought if it kills your brain, you just can't come back alive, which is why we shoot them in the head. You're still alive. Okay. Sorry. Don't bug me down with Walking Dead facts. Don't do it.

Now, the employee of an unidentified pharmaceutical company. Right. Okay. That was Billy Joe. Oh, okay. He got shot in the head. The virus is harmless to primates, but nearly always fatal to humans if untreated, causing inflammation of the brain and spinal cord. Eh, don't worry about it.

And it's just going from monkey to human now. Don't worry about it. It's fine. Because anytime it happens, it'll just happen to someone unidentified. So, you're fine. You know what? I apologize for the sounder. Download and subscribe to more content at the blaze.com slash podcasts.
