And now a Blaze Media podcast. Welcome to it, Chewing the Fat, with yours truly. Jeff Fisher, thank you so much for coming along for the ride today. I have so much to talk to you about today, so much. We're broadcasting day four from the CQB. CQB, baby. The COVID-19 quarantine bunker. And I am like, I'm doing it wrong or something.

I'm just off-kilter. Yes, you are. At home thing is, I don't know. I feel like today's show, we have to address you working from home and your procedures of working from home because every time I log in, you're like, I'm hungry. It's just not right. I don't feel right. See, it's not working. I need to create my own space and to stop using an amber spot.

And I'm like, bro, you're home. You kingdom castle. You have any room you could have. Make it yourself. That sounds good, doesn't it? That sounds good. Yes, it does. It does.

And then I come up and I sit down and I see, oh, NASA has warned us that an asteroid will pass so close to the earth that it may cause air bursts. Oh. Oh, that's okay then. Don't worry about it. It's probably not going to hit the Earth, but it will cause air bubbles. What does that mean? I'm sorry, not air bubbles, air bursts.

What does that mean? I don't know. Is there a difference between air bubbles and air burst? It's an asteroid fart, I guess, because it passes Earth. I don't know. Wait, Asteroid Farts? What is? An asteroid pass.

gas as it passes Earth, and we're going to feel it and smell it. I don't know. I don't know. But just keep an eye out for air bursts from the asteroids. Happy birthday to you. Happy birthday to you. No, I'm not washing my hands right now, although I am busy washing my hands a thousand times. I don't even leave the house.

washing my hands. At the time of this recording, Fisher, how many times have you wash your hands? At least. You know, once. I've watched him at least, I don't know, five, ten times already today. That's way too many times. I think I'm on number three. I don't even leave the house.

Because I went to the bathroom twice, and then I cooked some breakfast for myself. So at least three. I go in the kitchen, I get something to drink and I touch a counter. Oh, look, I'm in my own house. Like, I fed my turtle and my dogs, and I don't think I wash my hands after that. Oh, boy. I even fed the birds in the back. Dude, I have birds.

Go washing. I have birds in the back because it starts to become, like, sunny. Oh, dude, I'm in the backyard, just throwing bread at the birds. Dude, you're going to want that in a few months. The bread? Yes. Yes. Otherwise you're going to be eating the birds, which I'm not opposed to really. That's what I'm saying. I'm going to fatten up the birds and then I'm going to shit the birds.

All right. That's fine. Don't worry about it. So anyway, I'm saying happy birthday because it's Harvey Wednesday's birthday today. Dude! Happy birthday, Harvey! Do we have an address for him to send him a birthday card? We do. He's 68 today. He's, I mean, 68 years old. How he's celebrating is all the celebrities going to come over to his house and go through a big party. It's possible.

That actually would be great if they did because he's actually being shipped to the state facility. He's already there. They shipped him there yesterday from Rikers. So he didn't fall again? How's his head? I don't think they care. Oh, they don't care anymore.

I don't think they care. We're done. You fall, you fall. Get back up. No problem. Listen, we're letting everybody out of prison except for you. You are going in. That's just the way it is.

He's turning 68? Yeah. Wow. I know. So he's only got 23 more years to go. I don't think he will ever, ever in his mind thought that at 68 he'll be celebrating behind bards. I know. Dude, think about that.

Harvey Weinstein, one of the biggest executive producers of Hollywood, is spending his 68 birthday in prison. I know. Incredible. And, you know, I got it. All you, Harvey Weinstein haters. I got it. He's a dirt bag. He's still like human being, though.

I got it. Now, I keep seeing all the headlines of, now he's being sued for assault and battery. I don't even know who's, I mean, he's already in jail. He's already in jail. Do we need to kick the horse? And then, right.

The horse is down. The horse is down. He got no more money. Thank you. That's the title of Harvey's new movie. The horse is down. All right. I like that.

They made a movie about the fat guy from Fox News. I hope to see a Harvey Weinstein movie. Oh, yeah. Yeah. Right? That'd be great. Except you don't know. Look, we can't.

Okay, so we can't publish a book from Woody Allen because it, we don't know if everything he wrote in the book is true. Yeah. But we're going to be able to, and you know it's coming, the movie of Harvey Weinstein. And they won't talk to him about any of it. It'll all just be people of what they say. Yeah, it'll be from the perspective of the victims. And then all the proceeds will go to the victims.

And it will be a director, female director. It'll be a female producer. And then once the movie doesn't perform in the movie theaters, it's going to be, you see, they don't even support us. Shut up. Shut up. Then I see an article where they're talking about how the inmates are going to punish him. The inmates are going to punish Harvey Weinstein. I'm sorry. There's no person justice when it comes to Harvey Weinstein.

No way. Do you think they're going to touch them? Come on. Stop. Bill Cosby is like a king to these guys. Harvey Weinstein is going to be a king. And I don't know about you, Fisher, but in my book, in my book, here we are. Okay, I'm going to show you my book. Okay.

I got Bill Cosby here and I got Harvey Weinstein here. For my understanding of both cases, you know, Cosby did a lot more words. than Harvey Weinstein did. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, yes. Because he was drugging them. It was drugging them, yes. I could be wrong, but I have not heard anybody say that Harvey drugged me.

No, no, he did not. He drugged himself, you know, he injected on his penis, and he did all this weird stuff, you know, to induce arousal. But I don't think Harvey Weinstein drugged females in the back room with the pudding. I don't think that happened. You are Harvey Weinstein denier. I'm not a Harvey Weinstein. Harvey Weinstein, bad guy, denier, man. Wow.

Okay. Anyway, happy birthday, Harvey. Oh, yeah. By the way, yeah, happy birthday. The horse is down. Whenever we start making movies again, because, I mean, Hollywood is shut down.

Hollywood is, I mean, there's that all TV productions. Did you see that story? Do you see that story that one of our listeners sent to us about what is currently happening to all the TV shows? They're shut down.

So everybody's shut down. So what we have right now on the can, like what we've seen like springtime, it's already, that was from last year that they filmed. But if the stopping of making TV shows exceeds April into May, September when it comes to the new season, and everything's going to be pushed to January. And if it was a season. finale of any show and they just halted production, yeah, we're just going to end it with the last episode with film. That's it.

Yeah, it's done. Yeah, I mean, I don't need to read an article to tell you that. You look at what's going on there. They're all shutting down. I hope is none of my shows that I actually invested time in. Oh, it will be. I know. I know. See, you bogging me down with facts. Once again

here at CQB. I don't write my own article. I don't need an internet. story to die you can see it man everything is done if i'm going to have to spend my you know my my end of times with you recording podcast can you stop

peeing on my chirios can i just have a little bit of hope just a little bit all the mask is a little bit of hope absolutely you can't just a second though because i gotta go wash my hands So yesterday I talked to you about the FX producer who was hired to take out the cat butts.

Yeah, the buttholes. From the movie the cats, the cat buttholes. Yeah. So now. I know. I saw the email that went viral. And everybody says, we want to see the but holes. We want the buttholes.

So, I mean, I guess that's the new hashtag, we want the butthole. Can I quote you on that, sir. I want to say, would I look at it? Yeah. Wait, there's pictures of the buttholes? What's that? There's pictures of the buttholes?

Yeah. That's what they're asking for. The guy took them out, but they want the videos of the buttholes. Yeah. Oh, no. I thought that you saw what it looked like. Oh, no.

I mean, I can guess what a CGI cat butthole looks like. I can, you know, I can envision one. Can you? Yeah, close your eyes. Close your eyes. If you just close your eyes for a second. If you're driving, pull over. Or just close your eyes for a second.

You know, you're safe. There's no cars. There's a car way up there. I know, right? Don't worry about it. It'd be fine. Close your eyes. Nothing bad can happen in a few seconds.

And you can quit. Nothing bad happens in a car and just, you know, split second like that. Don't worry about it. I remember once. Now the side note from the cat buttholes. But I remember before we've envisioned that, you know, driving down the interstate and you've seen accidents and bad accidents.

But, I mean, have you ever seen a car flying from the other side across? No. Bro. I mean, you want to talk about buttholes getting tight and holy cow. I mean, this was here. We were not talking about bullholes getting tight. Yeah. Oh, yeah.

We were about removing bolts. No, that's we were. That's how I got to the story. We were talking about buttholes getting tight. And I'm driving down the interstate. A car from the other side is up in the air, spinning, coming to my side. Holy cow. So, nothing bad.

Anyway, my point is nothing bad can happen in a couple of seconds like that. Don't worry about it. What did you do? What did you do? What did you do? I mean, you see it coming. You slow down and you've got traffic around you, right? So you've got to, you can't just swerve out of the way.

Otherwise, you're causing more accidents. So you've got to just kind of slow down and see. what's happening with that car and it ends up not making it all the way onto my side of the interstate it ends up crashing into the middle oh okay so i mean it's up in the air spinning and you don't know i mean is it and you see the car come up in the air spinning so you're like who hello that's that's the only that's the only reason why it got me a car dash cam because i want to capture something like that and i've had it for wow five years now,

uh-uh, nothing. Nothing. I haven't ever capture like a kid running in front of me like after a ball. Like every incident

that happens on movies and TV shows it's a kid running on the street to catch his ball. Nothing. I know. I've been driving where I had a,

you know, big piece of... Don't piss me off. Don't piss me off. Don't piss me off. Because like, you're going to say something cool. Like I've driven literally on purpose behind trucks of debris that I seek

keep falling. I'm like just one of those pieces just landing my car and then I can sue for money. Oh, that's why you're not getting it. You want you you you can't think like that. What do I think like? You got to think like we want to catch it so that you keep people safe and healthy. If you're looking to sue and make money, no wonder you're not getting it. No, that doesn't doesn't work that way. Wow. Yeah, because I'm the only one that thinks that way in the room right now. I'm the only one that thinks that way. Guy who was following the money truck last week. I'm just saying. How many times have you slowed down behind the money truck? The Wells Fargo money truck. Dude, I send you pictures. Every time I see a truck, I send you a picture. Just one door,

just one bag. Just one bag. Half a bag. I don't care. I just want the back from your last stop, just have it roll out the door. But no. Here's what you do. Here's what you do. What are you do? You pull up in front of it really fast. And I don't recommend this and this is not, I'm not telling people to do this at all. Okay. But you know, as you're driving down the interstate, you put your blinker on and make the turn cut him off. So he makes has to, have to jerk, jerk to the right or the left really fast. Then it'll tip over. Okay. I'm not wishing for anybody to get hurt, but, you know, the cash might fall out. Holy cow.

Do not ever do it. No, don't do that. We need to edit that out. Okay. I'll take that out. Cat butt holes. What's that? Cat butt holes.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. Am I looking at the cat butthole video? Probably not all 400, but I am looking at it. it. Yeah, now I didn't want to see cats. Now it makes me want to see cat to see if this producer got all the buttholes at every butthole. Yeah. Because if he did it, dude, you missed a butthole. 23 minutes and 0.19 seconds into the movie, there's one cat in the crowd that has a butt. Yeah. You know the Taylor Swift cat? Yeah, when she's crouching down, I can see her butthole. And then that James guy, I can say he's a butthole too.

So. When they crouch down in a crowd, you can still see the butthole. You know, that's what's going to happen. No, it's what's going to happen. Did you see the email that came from one of the guys from the production company of cats that was, that needed to clarify about the buttholes? Did you see that email? I missed that email from the clarification of the buttholes. Okay.

So this is the email. clarification of those boatholes. I thought this is where you're going to go. From the email, there were never shots of cats with buttholes. Or at least by design. Now we're just denying it. That would just deny.

Thank you. Thank you. Two sentences in. We just now it has become a butthole gate. Now we have a butthole gate. Right. None that I saw anyways. However, there were a dozen or so shots

where the skin and fur seam was groomed or just folded in a way that really, really look like a furry lady genitals and buttholes by accident. The task, as typical with heavy CGI shows, fell on 2D to paint out the offending articles where it was brought up and spotted. So this makes me think that not all of them. it was seen. That's why the only reason one to see the cat's movies because of this now. Daily reviews were constant

awkward discussions of people plucking up the courage to point things out like... Why would it be awkward? That's your job. Does that look like a fanny to you? End of email. Are we... Seriously, that's the times we live in.

Your job is to review the movie, look at the cuts and make sure that everything is fine and you go scene by scene, that's your job. Yeah, that is your job. Post production. Yes. That's your job.

Yes. And it's awkward to bring up the mistakes? No. Stop it. No, it is. No. No, I'm sorry. It is not awkward.

I don't care. That's your job. If it's awkward for you to look at a movie that you're supposed to be, that you're responsible for, post production, audio or video. And you're listening to something I'm supposed to point out what's wrong or what you think could possibly be wrong. and then have it edited and you're concerned that you have to say, well, there's another butthole. Let's get that fixed.

Then you need to find a new job. And by the way, it's not like, it's not like it's a real butthole. Like, what is more offensive? No, but it looked like one. Leaving the butthole or asking, hey, can we remove that butthole? What is more offensive? Look like one. I've had enough about a hole to talk.

Can't take it. If this is where we're at in America, seriously, if you're feeling uncomfortable, doing your job, find a new job. So some things are happening around the world. I don't know if you know this or not, but that are affecting the way people think. We'll get to the coronavirus, COVID-19, the Wuhan flu, the Chinese bug, the Kung flu, whatever you want to call it. Ooh, Kung Flu is my favorite so far. Whatever you want to call it. I actually, if you follow me on Twitter at Jeffrey JFR, I did a Kung Flu thing off of Prather and Stu this morning about the, you know, Kung Flu 2 is back. This time it's pissed. Kung flu 2, don't breathe.

March 2021. So when you read it, you can hear. That's how I want to, that's the movie effects. But the Baltimore mayor, for example, fine mayor. You know, we just threw a bunch of people in Baltimore in jail and arrested them for fraud. They don't worry about it. And then we just did a story about the mayor. The people that were running.

The people that were running. Yeah. They're all criminals. Yeah. So this particular mayor has now urged residents. Who is the mayor of Baltimore now? He said, we have to open up the stupid story instead of writing down who the mayor is. Baltimore mayor Jack Young called on residence.

Stop shooting each other. I'm sorry? You're clogging up hospital beds. So now, it's too far. Once we declare a pandemic because of coronavirus, you're going to come out and say, hey, hey, hey, guys, can you stop shooting each other?

Now is the time. Now is the time. So that's your trigger right there. You know, Glenn has been talking about triggers. So that was the mayor's trigger right there. It's unbelievable. Maybe you think about that earlier, Mayor. Today we got news from the Pope who, remember one time we thought maybe had COVID-19,

but he tested negative, we were told. But he, now the Pope, what is the Pope? The Pope is the leader of the Catholic Church, right? He is the guy who is next to God. Yeah, so. God is up here. And the Pope is right here. So all the bishops and all the knights and all the pawns and all the queen, you know, the, we're playing chess?

The rooks. Yes, the rooks, the knights, the pawns, the queens, all of them. They are lower level to the Pope. They're a lower level of Pope. You pray to them. And you can get special dispensation and absolution from the priest. But if it doesn't go through the Pope, bad. Yeah, the Pope has to sign it.

That's why they have, you know, a lot of cases. of fake Pope papers. Chain of command. You are chain of command. Yes, yes. And the Pope is the next in line to God. So if the Pope says, hey, yo God. Yes.

Yes. God is supposed to say, what up? Yes. God's supposed to say, I'm listening to you. There's a special phone. Let me put Jeff Fischer on hold for just a second. Yes. And I'm going to talk to the Pope, right?

The Pope gets in. The Pope gets through. God, we've got the Pope is on line too. odds are if I'm talking to God, God's going to say, hey, Jeff, hold on. I got to talk to my man. I know, I agree. I got the Pope on two. Hold on.

I'll get back to you. Maybe. That's the way I see it. I'm not a Catholic. I've never been a Catholic, but that's how I see the whole Catholic hierarchy. I haven't played one on TV either. I'm just saying, and I'd be okay with that. Yes.

You know what I'm okay with that? I get it. I get it. God's going to put me on hold and take the Pope's call. I could be mad about it, but you know, you've got to live with it. It's something that you just have to live. So the Pope has now said, what? So the Pope, this guy, I don't know what took him so long.

I don't want your little funny, funny ha-ha Pope. So the Pope has said, he asked God to stop the coronavirus epidemic. And this just happened An hour ago Today Today an hour ago The Pope said He asked God

To stop the coronavirus epidemic So if you're listening and watching live The 19th of March 2020 To Chewing the Fat To this podcast This day The Pope Called God

Put somebody on hold got God on the line and said, hey God, thanks for taking my call. Listen, could you stop the coronavirus? Where are you been? Where are you been? And I don't know. I don't know because I have further information. So Fisher, I want to tell you how he asked God.

I don't know where he's been. I mean, the world has been praying to stop the coronavirus. And the Pope is like, eh. Maybe later. I got other things to do. I'll get to it. Just put it on my calendar. I'll get to it.

But, you know, according to sources out of wherever he lives, the Vatican, the Pope asked God to stop the coronavirus with his hand. Wait, I'm confused. With whose hand? With his hand. With God's hand. He wants God to wave his hands and stop the coronavirus. Okay.

That, I would think that. But the problem on that quote is that his, the age is not capitalized, which means we're not talking about God. We're talking about a human being. So I don't know if the Pope is going to use his hand to cure the coronavirus because if you would say, you know, I want God. I want God to add the coronavirus with his hand. With his hand, you would capitalize his, make it known that you're talking about God. That would start getting all journalistic. No, that is not journalistic.

Capital, H. No, that is not journalistic. That is like biblical. That's from the Bible. Every time you speak about God. Now we're going to start opening the Bible. We are. Okay.

And we all know every time you open the Bible, you open the Bible every single day. But I'm just saying, though, like, what took so long from the Pope? Like, we had a national prayer day on Sunday. The whole nation stopped, tuning to Pastor Jetson. and watched his service. I actually did watch the country. I watched a lot of that, most of that. Yeah, we texted back and forth.

And, like, we were like, hey, God, let's do this. But just now, now you decided to pray. Really weird. It is. Really weird. Now, maybe, maybe. Let's give the Pope. Now, as you know, I ran for Pope, so I don't want to, you know,

I'm not bad-mouthing the job because I, you know, I'm well aware of the struggles. and the stresses that is on the job of the Pope. Now, perhaps the Pope has been already asking God to stop the coronavirus, and now he's just coming out publicly saying that he asked. So you think people were questioning, hey, where's the Pope has been? Yes. You know, these world leaders, all these pastors come out.

Pope hasn't even commented. Has he been asking? Did he call God and get through and asked to stop the coronavirus? virus and so finally the Pope was like all right you know what I asked I asked again I called I knocked Jeff Fisher off line one God took me in right away

wait he knew that you were on hold yeah apparently so I was not on hold I was really we got it just picked up hello and he didn't even say hello he picked up he said Jeff what's up like he knew who it was and then all of a sudden he goes oh sorry Jeff Pope's on line too

got to go and that was it so so it's funny because right now um the pope himself has been suffering from a cold so he's been sick and he defied italian government advice to say indoors because on sunday he decided to leave the vatican and visit churches in the you know italian capital yeah but i mean Italy has been on a lockdown. And that's what they were saying. They were like, you're in lockdown. And if you come out, everybody's going to come out because the Pope is in town.

Right. So they're like, can you stop? Please. You got to go back. Was he in his Pope attire, though, or did he go incognito as, you know, with a baseball cap? As Bill the bread guy. With a baseball cap, like our presidents go through the back door.

Dark glasses and a baseball cap. He looked like the Pope. Oh, no. Oh, no. I'm just a guy. He said he went praying to the Basilica of Santa Maria before strolling down the usually bustling via del Corso. This is why Italy is so bad.

Dude, this guy's just walking around like it's nothing. I mean, it's okay to be outside, right? I guess they tell you it's okay to be outside. But again, if people in Italy are seeing the Pope walking around, The Pope isn't traveling without an entourage. Exactly. The Pope does not have the baseball cap on and the dark glasses and the blue jeans want, you know, just out walking for a stroll. No.

That just doesn't happen. No. Sorry. And I don't think it's legal for the Pope not to be in his bathrobe all day long. No, no, no, no, no. Well, he's the Pope, man. He can do what he wants. Are you kidding me?

Have you seen him other than the bathrobe? Not that I'm going to talk about. even though we're off kilter and you know broadcasting from the from the bunker it doesn't mean we have to live without Coca-Cola zero in the break oh my gosh that is so unbelievably good you know with everything going on in the world today and we'll get to the COVID-19 coronavirus update there's plenty to talk about no question about it and there's some good things too going on, which is kind of exciting, and I'm excited about it. I can't wait to get there. But I want to remind you to subscribe to chewing the fat.

Please, thank you. All you have to do is go to a platform of your choice. Whatever platform warms the little cockles of your heart. And then you just subscribe to chewing the fat with Jeff Fisher. It's just that easy. Now, if you think to yourself, I don't know what platform, to choose what to do.

Go to the blaze.com slash podcast, click on chewing the fat, a plethora of platforms pop up along the top of the screen, choose one, and then subscribe to chewing the fat on that platform. One of those platforms that pops up

is SoundCloud, don't choose that one. Any of them with that one. In fact, if you click on SoundCloud, you'll see that it hasn't updated for about two or three months. And that's why. They don't play nice with the other kids.

We're not playing nice with them. all the other platforms when you click on it. Yep, new shows every day. We give and we give and we give. So anyway, we do have Playboy magazine. It looks like it's going to shut down and during these hard times. And this isn't part of the coronavirus update,

although it could be because everything is coronavirus related with businesses now. Everything. Everything. Every business is related to that. I don't know what. I don't want to get into it. I don't want to get into how we're going to pay for all of them.

Stop. And, you know, our president wants to give us all 1,000 a month. He's signed it last night. Maxine Waters wants to up it. Of course. Oh, no, too. It's not enough. 2,000, 2,500 everybody.

Oh, my gosh, you stupid little, ah, of course. I know. It's supposed to be, but my point is. It's supposed to cover for rent. It's supposed to cover for rent because guess what? They're going to give you pay leave and they're going to pay for the. I, you're stupid. I'm sorry.

You can't be that stupid. MP is 45. It's 45. Don't play the political music. We're going to kill off kilter until the political scene, I know. But, A, are we going to have rent to pay? I mean, everybody is saying they're not going to charge rent. Okay.

My mortgage said, I receive an email for my mortgage company. They're charging me next month. still do? Yeah, it's still do. Bastards. I was pissed. Because when I saw the email from Penny Mac, I was like, yes. One month.

Just give me one month. That's fine. And we're not moving the dates unless you have hardship, but then you have to prove hardship. You have to prove hardship. Well, that's with anything. Even if we're not on a pandemic. I would reply back to that.

Here's my reply back to that. COVID-19. I'm like, even if I'm on hardship, now and there was no coronavirus, I could still be like, hey, can you defer my payment a month? And they would. And they would, yes, because hardship, I'm sorry, the person said I don't have to pay, so I'm not paying. Is that enough? We're in a hardship.

I know. I know. Okay. So anyway, sad news, though, about Playboy, I don't want them to shut down because they're saying that this might be it, right? No more Playboy. The world cannot survive with them. I think the world has survived without playable for a while.

I don't know what you're talking about. After you Hepner died that, you know, that magazine said, hey, we're not going to do any more naked pictures. I know. They're just going to be all on board and do all that. We're just going to be all about the articles and, oh, look at the time. So that quarter did not look good. We're going to bring back the naked girls.

Don't worry about it. What? April fools. We still, well, they screwed up on that announcement, by the way, when they did that because they were talking about they were still going to do nude stuff on their website if you were a subscriber. But the magazine wasn't going to do. Anyway, it doesn't.

I mean, I'm getting into Playboy business. They should have called me before Hugh died. I would have taken care of it for him. Because Hugh. That would be a great magazine, by the way. I'm sorry? That would have been a great magazine to see you artistic.

Thank you. I would have loved to be in charge of that magazine. No fatis, right? No fatis, right? Oh my gosh No but that would have been a sidekick though It would have been a side venture For Playboy

You know real life Playboy real life Ooh Thank you I don't don't do not even mess with me I can run that company In a heartbeat man Playboy is one of my heroes

I mean My classic Hugh Hefner joke I mean Hugh Hefner is isn't saying you know when he dies he was going to a better place he'll tell you that

he was in a better place man he was the man anyway don't get me don't even get me started on that but my point is yeah what's your point sorry is that now is probably not a good time

and I could be wrong I could be wrong but now is not a good time to launch a new venture you don't think so let's go down you may put it on hold okay But I do, the more I think about this, movie theaters, businesses, I feel that the coronavirus is going to flush out businesses that are no longer needed.

Okay. Like we just talk about the movie. We just talked about movie, the movie department, the TV department. You know, they're cutting back. Oh, no, we talked to South Korea. They're cutting back. They're saying we're still going to try to produce some productions. Yeah, we still want content.

Oh, they have to have content. But we're going to do it with less manpower and then what's going to happen when that production company sees, wait a minute, we can still produce content with half of the workforce. Yeah. Look at the time. I know. Look at the time. Look at that. Look.

That's affecting everyone. If you want to go down a road, if you remember a couple of months ago when Clear Channel, I heart radio laid off a bunch of people around the country. Oh, yeah. Yeah. And I mean, they let go of a bunch of people. Well, I just read another article from Pittman, who's in charge of Iheart. He's the head guy from Iheart. And he talked about how they're changing Iheart, and they're looking at how AI can be more a part of Iheart radio.

So, and they didn't go into great detail about what he, I would have loved to have talked to him about it. But they didn't go into great detail of what his thoughts were on that. on what he thought how AI was going to come into radio like that. But every industry is going to be hit hard after this. You're right. When people who have been out of work, and then how do we pay for that? Are we going to continue to pay these people?

I lost, I got laid off or my company closed during coronavirus 2020. And now my company says, ooh, look at the time. Sorry. Now, does the government continue to pay that person every month? Do we continue to subsidize the family, the rents? I mean, I don't know. I don't know how it's going to work. But you are right in that it's going to, the shakeout is going to be incredible.

Well, yeah, you're talking about, you know, people getting fired. Dude, do you see what happened at KROQ out of L.A? It gets K Rock out of L.A. Yeah. But that guy turned in. That guy was a jerk. They fired the entire morning crew. So what?

That happens if that's radio. You think that's radio? I think that's coronavirus right there. They're using the coronavirus to shake things up. The partner on that morning show had retired a couple of months ago. So the one guy was hanging on to the show by himself with some new team members. I'm sure the ratings were not as good without the other guy. So it was all ratings.

Don't start trying to make it into a bad thing. And then they gave him a shot to come back on and say goodbye, which never happens. And you want to know why it never happens? Because when he came back to say goodbye, he started ripping everybody for getting fired. That's why it never happens. Because you're not supposed to come on and start. They suck. They fired me.

You suck. Stop listening. Just agonizing. Don't. Oh, my gosh. It pissing me off. I mean, I know. It's bad.

I don't want anyone to lose their jobs, including me. I don't want to have anyone lose their jobs, period. But it does happen, and that's the business we're in. I know. So my point is, is perhaps it may be a tough time to launch something new. But not for J-Lo, baby. It's the year of J-Lo. She's launching a new shoe line with DSW shoes.

Wow. And she has that new TV show with, Qiby. Right with Quibi. Quibi. Yeah. Oh, there's another.

I mean, how's the production of that stuff? Well, they sent on an email. No, I'm sorry. No, they send out in notification

to all iOS users with an article. Don't talk down to me with your iOS users. Go ahead. Go ahead. They did a sneak What's coming.

It's called The sneak peek, stream your favorite stars in Quibi. And it was- I mean, they've got it. They've got a huge, they've already got a bunch of content already in the can.

So it's good, good for them. Yeah, so it gives us a little bit of what they're going to be seeing, of what we're going to be seeing. Right. I've seen all the clips from. No, like I said, this is for iOS users. Yeah. We got a notification yesterday on our platform saying, hey, here's a quick preview.

Which, by the way, I know we, we're supposed to hate, oh girl, Christy Tegan. We're supposed to hate her? You know, because she's... We are? Yeah, yeah, we're supposed to hear her. Oh, yeah, okay. She's looking hot. I know, but what about the show?

I don't care she looks hot, but she's the judge in some stupid show. Wait, what about is the show good? It's small claims cases. Okay. I think you're right when you predicted that they're trying to make her just Judy. Right. And here's the problem.

Just Judy was actually, uh, uh, an attorney? An attorney. This is just, it feels like a sitcom. Yeah. Right. We've seen plenty of sitcoms about judges. Yes. Like, it's literally, like, when did Christy Tegan become the overall actress that can do anything?

When Hubby became a. Eagot? Is that what it is? When you become an egot, your spouse becomes the go-to-form. everything because first she was a judge at a comedy stand-up comedy show then she tried to be an actress that did not work then she tried to do a host of a tv show in paramount network yeah that did not work and then now which one was that one uh it's on my facebook it's like where they take actors and they sing like a popular song i'll sing new clips about it it's in paramount okay that's fine it's fine

And then now we're trying to make her America's judge. Yeah. No. Oh, and she was a model. She was a model. Which I don't understand why she was a model. She's not attractive. I am sorry.

She's still the supermodels, right? Yes. Not attractive. Not attractive. I don't understand why they're shoving Chrissy Tegan down our throats because somehow overnight she became this well-rounded actors that we must. must have her in everything. Everything. It's social media.

I don't know. Because she's become, you know, she's produced her Instagram and videos of the family and, you know, millions of followers and people love to see her in the family and Egot boy, you know, tramping around the pool and living life like, you know, the king and queen with millions of dollars. And that's what it is. It's social media drives them that, driving that, that stardom because for many people who may not follow her on social media or follow her but only because it's we'll follow her on social media and you know we'll enjoy what's going on i don't want to see her in a show dude her mom is the bailiff yeah i did not see that yeah we got i mean we've got to feed the family right i'm done with her okay you'd be done with her

That was YouTube that charged me $2.7. Yeah, like I said, the iOS plan. So we're still under good news, right? Oh, I do like the story of, and I want one of these in my home.

Okay? They have developed a machine. we'll see if it works I know that we'll see but it's a 360 degree disinfecting system that claims to clean people within like 20 seconds

so a people car wash a people wash yes huh and just look through I am a fan let's see if it has a price because it's got to be what

10, 20 bucks absolutely add a couple hundred thousand to that and then you're in the ballpark yeah For this machine? Uh-huh. Yeah.

See, Tuttle? Uh-huh. 10, 20 bucks. Plus a couple of hours. Well, think about it. That's a great. You sit at a hospital and you charge people to come in, get them a hose off. 20 bucks per person.

You're not coming to the hospital without getting hosed off. And by the way, you're paying for it. So. And it's not covered by your insurance if you have insurance. And if you don't have insurance, you're not coming in. anyway. So, get over it. The Postal Service has released a statement about the U.S.

mail during the coronavirus outbreak. If they say they're shutting down, their stupid commercial is fake news. No rain, no snow will stop us delivering your mail. The Postal Service statement, they will continue. Continue. Okay. Continue. So they can add coronavirus to the commercial.

Hold on a second. If I push that button, then I don't hear you. Just so you know. I said, there's a button on this particular computer. If I hit it, it beats the world. Oh. Yeah, it beats the world. So if you didn't hear what I said, I said that they need to add coronavirus.

Careful. What's your service? Hey, you're a bad mouth of the postal service. Don't bad mouth the postal service. They're still going to deliver mail. and they're going to deliver it worldwide. They're just pausing a little bit of the delivery from China and to China. So they're not delivering.

No, they are just not to China and from China. So anything coming from China goes where? I hope it goes into a fire. Wait, no, that might be medical supplies and stuff. I don't know. I believe China sent a bunch of crap to us to help us. Yeah, they did send us. You know what?

Can I quote you on that? Yes. Because I believe that to be true as well. China did send us a bunch of crap. Hey, do you want to talk about the nurse that got the coronavirus? Oh, yes. We meant to do this. Okay, so we got an email from a, I'm guessing as a female.

Yes. A nurse? Yes. I don't want to be judgmental or out in front of that. She's pretty cute. she was telling us her COVID-19 story yes

so day one started having some body aches we have a name but do we know I don't know how to say it just a just a first name it's all we care exactly AK H-I-N-K

okay AC okay sure we'll go with that Nurse AC nurse why she would go nurse Omer because her last name is O-M-E-R no don't know that don't tell your last name.

She said this via Twitter. Yeah, she doesn't want people to know who she is. All right. Nurse Ack. Nurse Ack. Day one. And by the way,

this is like Wikipedia. Somebody put it on Twitter. It's real. So go ahead. Let's hear the Nurse Ack's story. Day one, started having some body ach slash fever and dry mouth.

Called the doctor. They gave me some antibiotics. Right. Day 2 to 5. Still have some body aches. Fever, way around 101. I took some Tylenol-slash ibuprofen. Okay.

So they're telling you now not to take the ibuprofen. Yes. Right? Don't take the ibuprofen does not. The ibuprofen may actually enhance the complications. Enhanced the complications. Yeah. So the complications.

But the other thing is, is that this is this story was what started, her story. begins, what, a week ago? Yes. A week ago, we were still at the point. I mean, I'm probably surprised she was in so much denial at the beginning. Maybe she wasn't. Yeah. Well, and then as a nurse, he was trying to be like,

that's true. You know, not fully panic. Right. I'm just not feeling good. Yeah. And she says here, like, for example, day six, I head back to the doctor's office. At this point, I still didn't qualify for the COVID testing. Wow.

I got a stereo shot and gave me some mild relief. That's strange that she didn't qualify because really I get the whole, you know, the people are being mad over not being able to get the wellness test. If you're well, stop it. You don't have it. You don't need to get a test. Like for example, me and you do not need to get tested. No.

Because I don't have a cough. No symptoms at all. No one in my house has symptoms. So we should not be getting tested because it will be. literally a waste of a test. Yes, thank you. And you can quote us on that one. Day eight, feeling a little bit dehydrated,

so I decided to go to urgent care, get a chest x-ray. Looks like I have pneumonia, but need to wait until a full report from radiologist. Ooh. Now you're nervous. I know. I got a call from the doctor a few hours later

telling me to go to the ER ASAP. Monday night. I go to the ER and at this point my fever is still at 101, 101, 102, body eggs, chills, cough, and making me miserable. Got a bunch of labs done, fluids, antibiotics, diagnosed with bilateral pneumonia and got admitted it. Finally, I qualified for a COVID test. Wow. Since Monday, they've been working on me for about 24 hours to see if the fever will stay away from 24 hours. hours for more hours to go. Yay. Today, which is yesterday, the results came back in. So Monday,

she was tested yesterday, Wednesday is when she found out that she has COVID-19. I was actually relieved because everything else came back negative. I actually feel better today than I felt the last 10 days. Hopefully it's all uphill. It's run its course. Yes. If you're If you're reading this, the only takeaway is stay home and don't unnecessarily expose others. I'm hoping to get discharged from the hospital the next few days. Final note, I am 31 years old with no past medical histories besides tonsils out as a kid. Two things from that. Again, I just want to remind you that that was taken from Twitter.

so we have to take it as fact. Yes. I mean, there's nothing, there's no way that people can lie on Twitter. And second, she was getting really, really sick until yesterday.

And that's when the Pope spoke to God. So the Pope finally said, hey God, you want to do something about this COVID-19 thing? And so now she's getting better. So, I mean, you got to thank the Pope.

So, I mean,
