We'd love to talk. Business. And now, a Blaze Media podcast. Welcome to Chewing the Fat. Yes, it's Fat Pile Friday. We made it. I know. We're still at the bunker.

I'm still at the QBC. What is it? The QBC? It's the CQB? Whatever the hell it is. I don't even remember where the hell I'm at anymore. I know it's the CQB. Stop looking at me like that.

Now, we have another story of a hundred, A 104-year-old veteran recovered from coronavirus. Congratulations. Sit down. Your blood is ours. No, you don't get it. No, there's no, if-ans or butts, sit down. Your blood is ours.

Now, of course, since we have, you know, we're in this COVID-19 world now. no matter where we go, what we do, what we see, what we talk about, we are living in the COVID-19 coronavirus world, period. Everything revolves around that. I'm really surprised that we're getting now more and more stories about graveyards and what's happening around. We have the story from Reuters Island where inmates are digging graves. Now, I, they tried to make a big deal about that, but prisoners have been digging graves on that heart island for years. So, I mean, are they probably digging a few more graves on that island these days during

the COVID-19 scare? Yes, I'm sure that they are. But they have been doing that for quite some time. So it's not as easy for them to make that big a deal out of it. And we now have people, especially in New York, and this will be a big deal all over the country. Coming to a city and a cemetery near you. Now, I want to pause here in the show and say, is the electrocution sound that I'm hearing in my ears making it to the recording? or is that just in my ears

that I'm being electrocuted? So that was me getting electrocuted. So I did not know you heard that. I touch a cable that I was not supposed to touch and it shocked me. So I want to apologize to you. Could you touch it again?

Please. Oh, do I want you to be shocked so hard? I want to make sure you're okay. I'm okay. I'm okay. I'm okay. No, no, no, I'm going to touch it again just in case. Okay, hold on.

What? What are you doing? You make me touch it again. Why? I'll give you five bucks you hang on to that bad boy for more than longer than that one second touch. Oh, how much? Oh, Fisher. Fisher.

Do not. How much you want me to, how long? Tell me. Because I'm going to hold it. For five bucks, I wouldn't hold it much longer than what you've already held it. So it's okay. Hey, it's CQB time. Five bucks is five bucks right now, okay?

I know we're not going to have our drugs anymore, but those five bucks are going to take me a long time to, you know, sustain. So, dude, why are you, stop touching it? What are you doing? You asked me to touch it. I know, but that's not the point. Before that,

once I find out, if I find out you can electrocute yourself, of course I want you to touch it, But I didn't know it was a live cable. As you can see, I'm not in my normal CQB. So I was just touching as you were doing your intro. I was touching stuff. And then there's a cable next to my computer that was trying to get away from my computer.

And every time I touch that cable, it completes a circuit from the computer to me. And then you hear that. You got to move it out of the way, though. I will. Once you're done recording, I'll move it. No, I got me, just get it now. You just get out of the way. happy

not really I wanted it to be a lot longer but you know okay the things I do for you seriously the things I do for you hey you want me to talk this live cable

as we record our podcast and people are watching it and listening live oh yeah sure buddy go touch that live cable it's going to make great radio not really but it was funny to me

I don't care I mean, we can barely Look, you can't a joke about anything anymore. We've got to be able to laugh. We have to, I'm sorry. We have to, no, back to the cemetery. We have to be able to laugh. Back to the cemeteries.

We have people that are just picking, going to cemeteries because that's, you know, every place else is closed. They're paying attention to all the other places around. So let's go to the cemetery. It's a really cool place. Now, it's a good place to go, and you can, you know,

plenty of social distancing normally at the cemeteries, right? And it's people, plus that's a good place to go and have social I'm sorry? I thought I meant I get some business down like,

hey girl, when I go to the cemetery with me, there's nobody there. Well, see that goes now that goes against social distancing. Oh, okay. So I'm talking about you could go to the cemetery and you could have a party and still be social distanced.

Everybody could just be have their own little grave, everybody's at their own little gravesite, partying together alone. Right? Now the problem with that is is that then you end up with you know.

Social. Say baby. Want to come over to my gravesite? Yeah, I mean, that doesn't. Really, the grass is greener over here. Bumpum. Yeah, no kidding.

So, you know, I don't know. Then we have people finding lost treasure and dying, or I should say, attempting to find lost treasure in the Rocky Mountains. And they're looking for lost treasure, trying to be the big millionaire. Because apparently this forest fen hid in the mountain. somewhere in the U.S. and he's got his lost jewels and medals that are supposed to be worth about two million

bucks. And so people are trying to find Fenn's treasure and they're going after it and yet they're not finding it and they're dying. So maybe you don't worry about Fenn's treasure. I mean, that's like that stupid

that stupid TV show, the lost gold or oh they're they're digging and they're digging on that stupid island I never find anything bringing all these people they never one one time they find a piece of bark that's not supposed to be there are you talking about they say are you talking about pirate island the lost treasure of Fiji no no there's another one that that I'm pretty sure that's not yet lost gold island Maybe. You know what? Both of those might be right. I don't know. My father-in-law watches. I see them on the screen.

Okay. If he's father-in-law, then it's Lost Gold Island on History Channel. Yes. Right. And they've been digging on this thing and they've been pulling out every so often they pull out a log and they have some bark on it. And they bring in the professionals and they look at the bark and it spawns another six months of digging because that tree bark wasn't supposed to be there. and that's part of the treasure. Oh, no. It's incredible. And they never find anything. So you're telling me that just because that tree log did not belong at that area,

there's some gold down there? Yes. There's a giant treasure. It's over there. Now what we've been doing, we've been digging in the wrong place. Because the bark would have floated three feet this way and 10 feet this way. So we've got to dig another 30 kilometers back over this way and back to the left. It's just amazing.

They're never finding anything. So are you telling me that this, you know, this TV show and whatever they're doing of the Rocky Mountains, that's another gold mining in Arkansas kind of deal? Oh, that's diamonds. Oh, diamonds, sorry. That's diamonds. Diamonds. Yeah. No, because there is the gold diggers in Alaska that actually do find gold.

I mean, they do some serious digging and find gold. they bring in the cranes I mean they're digging gold and everything and going crazy I believe that's on the history channel too because I catch that for my father-in-law there because he's always like oh you know I'd go up there and do that

okay grandpa shut up okay grandpa no you would go smoke another pack of cigarettes just me that's not happening we're not going up there digging for a bucket of gold although

go grab your oxygen tank and go smoke another pack of cigarette in the back after uh after COVID-19 we maybe had a to Alaska. Well, not just that. If you think about it, you know, this whole Glenn talking about the, uh, we're running out of gold, we run out of gold.

I think that's another job that we need to start, you know, picking back up. Yesterday we talked about the do people with the hands. Hey, I feel like COVID-19 is about to bring back the gold miners. And I start mining for gold. I'm all for it. Go for it. Yeah. You could pan it.

You could be, you know, the thing is is that they invest all this money. They go up there. and you can pan it, you know, just like the panhandlers, and you don't find very much, and you find, you know, your little jars. And then during tourist season, some of the places try to sell their gold to the tourists that come up,

and that's where they make their money. But the big guys bring in the cranes and the water tillers, and they are just mining, I mean, they want big amounts of gold. And it's the part of the show is them getting, you know, of course the cranes are stuck, and everything is broken down,

and we've got to fix it, and we've got to get it right before the weather comes in. and then they end up mining for gold for two weeks instead of four, and they get one bucket of gold instead of five, and they've just made enough to survive the winter until season two. I know it's Fat Pile Friday. We'll get to the, you know, we'll get to the fat pile. Believe me, there's plenty of fat in the pile.

I know if you have any doubts about the possibilities that the fat is being trimmed on the pile. No. That is not happening. so we'll get we'll get to it i've got headlines that are just incredible we've got to get to and we've got so many stories you know the stories don't stop it's just all revolving around coronavirus i mean plus there's now there's all kinds of other news happening but but it gets drowned out by the coronavirus news so i mean we're good to as much as we can okay that's what we do here that's why you subscribe to chewing the fed

Did you see where Dr. Anthony Fauci, you know, the, our main doc, our main man doc, the director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Disease, who's on the platform with our president every day talking about the coronavirus. There's a big online petition right now to make he's 79 years old. It looks pretty good for 79, man.

Big social media push to get him named People Magazine's Sexiest Man Alive. I don't know about that, but, you know, we can give it a shot. Let's go to change.org position. Let's see, Dr. Anthony Fauci, People Magazine's Sexiest Man Alive, Change.competition. Let's get 5,000. He only has 4,743 people have signed out. up, but still climbing 47, 48, 49 to sign up. So it's still climbing. They're going to get 5,000 easy, but you think he would have had more than 5,000. This story broke last night.

5,000 people would have signed up for that. Hello? Plus, they also have now made Dr. Fauci bubblehead. I'm incredibly impressed. So he's got the bobblehead doll now. And did you know that there's a national bobblehead Hall of Fame

and Museum? I know. I know. I didn't. And by saying, I know, I didn't know. A national bobblehead Hall of Fame and Museum. Now it's closed, of course,

temporarily due to coronavirus. Now you can still, once they open back up, they were open Monday through Friday, 10 to 6, and Saturday and Sunday, 10 to 5. Now you think to yourself, wait, where is the National Bobblehead Hall of Fame? It's the National Bobblehead Hall of Fame and Museum.

It's got to be someplace huge, right? It's in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. You think, it's in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Well, what do they've got? They've got a big, you know, We've opened up a mall. We've got a giant layout for the National Bobblehead, a Hall of Fame and Museum.

It's on the second floor at 170 South First Street. You know what? I'm not going to let you. I'm not going to let you. I got a very nice email from Phil, the CEO of the National Bobohead Hall of Fame. And he's like, oh my gosh, you're interested in talking to us,

you know what, let me put this email down and let's connect. Nice. So, let's talk to Phil at the National Bobblehead Hall of Fame Museum. Do you want to continue trashing down, Phil? I've not trained to it.

And his creation of the National Bubblehead Hall of Fame and Museum in Milwaukee. I heard that you think I was, that I was bad-mouthing in and down. I was just telling people where it was. I wanted people to be able to go and visit. The National Bobbohead Hall of Fame Museum.

Which, by the way, he says... The second floor of 170th, South First Street in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. By the way, and he says, and I quote, Dr. Fauci Bobbohead have been going crazy, and quote. Nice. I like that. And I'm... See, this is going to sound like I'm downplaying the bobblehead. Okay.

Because you are going to play the bubble. Because you are going to play the bubble. You're going to be like poo-poo in it. It is. I don't know. I have a question. I just wonder what constitutes going crazy as, you know, the bubble has. I mean, is it 10?

Is it three? Is it five? I don't know. You know what? How about we just let Phil, you know, contact the CQB? I am a huge fan of talking to Phil. Is he the guy? He's the CEO and founder of the National Bubblehead.

We absolutely have to talk to Phil of the National Bobblehead Hall of Fame Museum. So, like I said, we absolutely wanted to talk to Phil to Phil Schler. co-founder, CEO, guru of the National Bobblehead Hall of Fame and Museum in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Phil, welcome to Chewing the Fat. How are you, sir? I'm doing okay, given the circumstances. Thanks for having me. So I noticed from your website that, you know, your place is temporarily closed, of course,

because of the, you know, coronavirus pandemic that the world is facing. but you still are able to create new bobbleheads. And you just unveiled one that we mentioned earlier of Dr. Fauci. So people are still able to order them and get them? Yeah, so people can, right now it's a pre-order where we just unveiled it. People are ordering them like crazy. It's breaching heights that we haven't seen before. We had Sister Jean about three years ago during March Madness,

and that's been our best seller to date. but it looks like Dr. Fauci is going to give Sister Gina run for her money. We're coming up with new eye Babelhead ideas 365 days a year, whether we're in self-isolation or out at a sporting event. So, yeah, I think now that we have a little bit more time on our hands, we're coming up with even more ideas. And Dr. Fauci, you know, deserve the highest honor that we think bobbleheads are the highest honor and we think he's well deserving.

So you, he has been already inducted into. the Hall of Fame? I mean, you've already done, that's a done deal, he's in? Well, so he's not necessarily in the Hall of Fame yet, but I think he'll probably get inducted when we have that, you know, the induction process. But yeah, his

bobblehead, you know, has been, is now being produced by the Hall of Fame. Okay. So how many, how many bobbleheads do you have in the Hall of Fame right now? Yeah, so right now I'm isolated by my

here with 6,500 unique bobbleheads of all different types. Everything from sports to non-sports right, yeah. Right, okay, so, all right, now you have at the now that's part of the Hall of Fame and the museum, right? And I

apologize for not ever have been being at your museum in Hall of Fame, and I'll try to resolve that issue as soon as we're back to whatever the new normal is. But you have 6,500 bobbleheads.

But are those separate? I mean, do you have to like, these are all the bobbleheads and here's a bunch, these are all the ones that we love. But over here in this room is the Hall of Fame and these are the best ones ever. So how many of those do we have? Yeah. So back when we first came up with the idea, 2014, 2015, we put out an online poll whether Pete Rose's Biblehead should be the first one inducted into the Hall of Fame.

Nice. About 94% of the people said yes. So we had an induction ceremony actually with Pete and his bobblehead right now. We just opened February 1st of last year. His bobblehead's the only one in the Hall of Fame section. So he has a plaque in his bobblehead. But Dr. Fauci, I think, might be joining him with the first sort of official induction class when we have that. So do you have any idea, you being an expert in bobbleheads?

how many different bobbleheads there are? I mean, I know that's a tough answer because, of course, there's millions. And, you know, there's anybody can have a bobblehead made of themselves, and it's a Christmas present or whatever. But what's the idea? What's the thought on how many bobbleheads there are? Yeah, the universe of bobbleheads is quite large. It's, we're actually, we've been working on some database projects.

And if this coronavirus pandemic continues, which hopefully it won't for too long, we might get further and counting the number of bobbleheads that are out there. But there's been about 8,000 different stadium giveaway bobbleheads since those have happened in 1999. But the universe is over 100,000 different bobbleheads. If you don't count the ones that Joe got for his mom or got a bobblehead of his mom. But yeah, there's a big universe of bobbleheads out there. So part of the proceeds that people that are purchasing the Dr.

Fauci, Bobblehead, you say are going to the American Hospital Association to support the 100 million mask challenge, which is tremendous. Thank you for that. I appreciate it. You, when you said that you started, you opened up the office, the actual store, and, you know, a little over a year ago now. And you came up with the idea of four or five years ago. What were you?

I mean, you're sitting around at a bar in Milwaukee thinking, you know, we, you know, we, We ought to open up a Hall of Fame of Bobbleheads. No, so it came about by a collection of me and the other co-founder that was growing out of control. It actually started with one display case and grew to, you know, babbleheads overtaking the kitchen of our condo. We had about 3,000 bobbleheads, and we also sought out at the same time to produce a bobblehead of a friend of ours, who was a manager for the sports teams at the college we went to and also a special Olympian. He had a great experience with that.

I was working in corporate finance, and my co-founder was working in retail sales, and we thought, you know, we could combine these two ideas, produce bobbleheads, and have a one-of-a-kind museum dedicated to bobbleheads, and here we are. So many of these bobbleheads that in the museum are your own personal collection. Yeah, so it started with our personal collection, and then once we announced the idea,

we got bobbleheads from people all over the world, all over the country, you know, all corners sending them in, team sending them in. We had one gentleman donate, send in over 1,500 bobbleheads. He had a terminal cancer, heard about the museum and wanted to have his collection, you know, be out there for people to enjoy, and we have a plaque honoring him at the museum as well. So it's been a, you know, crazy journey, and we've had visitors from all 50 states, 25 countries in the first year of opening, and, you know, hopefully, obviously we'll be able to open soon and share the collection.

again with everyone who wants to see it. I'm a little hurt that there's only one person in the Hall of Fame. I mean, it's cool that it's Pete Rose, and I'm happy that he's there, and it's cool that he, you know, participated in the induction ceremony and everything. But it's been over a year. Bro, come on. Give me some. Make some Hall of Fame members.

Yeah, we will. We're working on that. Now we have some more time. We've been real busy getting everything up and running. We had a lot busier than expected, which is, you know, obviously good, kept us busy. But yeah, we're working on that process. And maybe you'll be one of the, on the voting panel through the Hall of Fame.

I am a fan. I'd be happy to participate in the Bobblehead Hall of Fame ceremony. It would be great. I was going to say, Fisher. So if I want to order Dr. Fauci, how do I go about doing that? Yeah, so they're available for pre-order now in our online store at bobbleheadhall.com. They're $25 each, as you mentioned, $5 from every. Everyone sold that we're donating right to the effort for the 100 million mask challenge,

which we think is a tremendous effort. We need all our first responders to have the PPE to help save all of our lives, our parents' lives, our kids' lives during this critical time. You know, if we could produce, you know, PPE and ventilators right now, we would. Unfortunately, all we know how to do is bobblehead, so we're raising money and putting a smile on people's faces, hopefully. So let me ask. How much time do you spend dusting?

Luckily, we have somebody who does really good at that. We have some real great employees and staff that take care of it. But personally, I do a little bit of dusting if I walk by and see a little dust here and there. But yeah, it definitely is a challenge. No kidding. Phil Sklar, co-founder of CEO. of the National Bobblehead Hall of Fame and Museum. Thank you for taking a little bit of time out of your day to day for chewing the fat.

I appreciate it. It was enjoyable. And I absolutely, any way we can help with the Hall of Fame and Museum, you let us know here at Chune the fact. That's great. I love it. And remind people again where to go to get Dr. Fauci and check out anything more about the museum. Go to? Yep, bobbleheadhall.com.

If you need information, if you want to update us on what's happening in your coronavirus world, if you're looking out the window as you're being quarantined in your home, and you say, ooh, that's interesting. Take a picture. Send it to Chewing the Fat at the Blaze.com. I may put that up on my YouTube channel, Chewing the Fat with Jeff Fisher, which you should subscribe to.

or I may use that on during my Chewing the FAC segment on Pat Gray on Leashed on the Blaze Television and Radio Network. Or you can just email us and let us know. You had an idea when we were talking about our Blaze ticker motto, where we have the news people try to be serious and give us a prayer. But in the back, they have the death ticker motto, the death ticker from the coronavirus. I like this one, although I think we might get sued because it's not. It's too close. It's too close to the real thing.

It's our motto. Because according to Bob, our death ticker motto should be, we can take a licking and keep on ticking. So, you know, but that's the time X. Time X we get a little mad. Oh, okay. Now, oh, I did get this email. I get emails like this.

So let me start by saying, best podcast ever 20 stars. I hope you do that on the review and not just the email. I was going to say, can you do that where it counts? Because in our emails, it doesn't count. Thank you for trying, but that did not help us at all. He continues. I am at my wits end with my roommate.

He is driving me nuts with the dumb things he does, such as stand there and stare at me. Oh, wait, I live alone, and that's a mirror. You guys do a great job and make me laugh. I honestly thought he was going to say, oh, wait, that's my spouse. I thought we were going to go there. It could have got either way, but I do like how he ended it was in mirror.

I like that. I like that. He continues with you guys, do a great job and make me laugh. Look, there are plenty of times when we do try to get serious and we do some serious stuff.

But for the most part, you know, I, we have to be able to smile, right? Plus, there's other people that can do that for you. There's other people that you could get

the serious stuff. There's other people you could get the facts. Here you get the... I'll give them, you. I'll give them to you. I got no problem giving you the facts and letting you know some serious stuff. But I got

boring. I try to look at things a little bit differently than others. No. What? Right, I don't. No. But, you know, like, we're already, you can't joke around about anything anymore. I mean, it's more and more difficult.

I should say, it's more and more difficult to joke around about things. You know, people were all upset at the Oklahoma newspaper that tried on their poor attempt at an April Fool's joke, the Oklahoma newspaper stirred panic among parents of a local school district by publishing an April Fool's Day story that claimed all students have to repeat their current grade next year.

Okay, so let me stop for just a second, all right? So I don't know how the school handled it. Perhaps if I was the school district and I was going to do that, which I think is funny, I would have left on the voicemail message, hey, if you're calling because of the April Fool's Day joke about repeating their current grade next year, don't worry about it.

It was just an April Fool's joke, have a great day. Something like that. Because did it really, if you're a parent, were you panicked? No. Were you panicked? No. I mean, I could see where you would say, what?

Are you kidding me? And you call the school. And that's where the voicemail would come in and say, it was just a joke, lighten up. Yeah, when I just that is you might be panicking, but you are social media panicking. I just want to do it so people pay attention to me. And, oh, look at that. Oh, school is bad. Blah, blah, blah.

So you are panicking. You're like, ooh, I could get some likes. I can get some shares. I could get some virulness. Yeah. Shut up. Social media panicking. But on the other hand, we have a survey where a valiant.

where a vast majority of Democratic college students say offensive jokes can constitute hate speech. Now, that's not a surprise that that would be their answer in that kind of poll. What the surprise is is that we're still get over it. 76% said that offensive jokes can constitute hate speech. You should be kicked out of school. I don't remember who told me this, but I was... If it's good, it was me. Okay. It's like comedians are supposed comedy and comedians, you know, what people do for a living.

The comedy is supposed to go into those dark places and make you laugh. Yep. We're not joking about, you know, pedophilia or we're not joking about, you know, the priest touching the little boy. We're not making fun of that. We're just trying to lighten things up, okay? because right now suicide rate is going up. So what do we need to do? We need a little bit of laughter in our lives.

Like it's okay to laugh about this. Like, oh, kids have to come back. Oh, that's funny. I'll be laughing. You know what I'll do? I will play that whatever it is. I'll play for my kid. I'll be like, hey, you're going back to class.

I will even go further. Hey, guess what? Start practicing because you have to go to school now. So let's go practice, go into the bus. Let's go practice for next year. You have to repeat all that stuff. I will even go further than that. Can I go on the record as just saying

when you say we don't joke about pedophilia and we don't joke about the priests? That's true to a point. I want to clarify that I don't joke about that kind of stuff on air in real life. If you and I were talking in a separate room, say you stopped by the house. Okay.

You and I are sitting in the bunker. Okay. And we're just hanging out here at the bunker. Okay. There may be. It's possible. It's possible that a priest joke, that a pedophile joke comes out. It is possible.

It is possible. I'm not saying it would. But by you saying that joke, does that mean that you support pedophilia and priest-statching little boys? No. Done. Not one bit. Done. Not one bit.

So. And any time, if it's possible that I make a joke about an old man and a young girl, okay, do I support that? Absolutely not. Do I support that happening to my daughter or your daughter? Absolutely not. I would go, I would walk through fire to stop it from happening to your child if I saw it. I'm not one of those guys that would get out my phone and start recording and say, look at this

horrible thing this guy is doing to this young child. I would stop it. You know, then I'd get my phone out of record. You got to post it. I mean, you can't just let it go. People got to believe that it actually happened. But absolutely, I would stop it. It's ridiculous to think that you support something like that.

Yeah, and then the whole thing, too, you know, we've talked about in this show. When we, when the whole Kevin Spacey thing came out and the whole. and the whole Michael Jackson documentary, Fisher, you were like, where can I drop my kid off? It was a joke. And guess what? You laugh. And just because you laugh, that doesn't mean you support whatever we just said. It's just we need to lighten things up.

And when we say a COVID-19 joke, like, I don't know, you and Keith have been talking about with Pat that he has a disease. And what is it scurvy's he has? What is the scurvy's or COVID? which one does he have now? I don't know. Consumptions, scurvy, COVID, whatever. Guess what? That's a joke because deep inside when we hang up

and when we're like in our house, we're praying for Pat that he doesn't have what we think he has. Thank you. It's a joke because right now it's a perfect chance for everybody to lighten up, go outside, make those jokes. Yeah, you know, some of them are inappropriate.

You know, like the rabbi and the priest they walk in and they do ha-ha. And, you know, you might not. not like it. But at the end of the day, you have to laugh. We can't take everything so seriously, especially right now where like we talked about it, Fisher. Those divorce rates, after that story you talked about yesterday, I went and read it. That is so true. You know, one thing about this, I thought this was going to bring families together. On the other hand, now that you told me the stupid 76% of idiots think that offensive jokes, you know, could be a hate speech, I'm just,

Once again, you just turned off the light at the end of the tunnel. I thought we were just going to have a reset in society. Everybody's going to be like, you know what? I was indoors. I come sense to myself. I'm no longer brainwashed. But, dude, we got to start lighting things up. And that's what I believe this show does best.

And I want to remind you also that we did get some news from Governor Andrew Cuomo's ex-girlfriend. Uh-oh. who posted a video of her upset that she claimed. Now, they've been apart now for a little over a year. And you can, you know, seeing her without makeup on in her video, you understand what the governor was thinking. Anyway, the... That's another joke, by the way,

for all of you they are counting at home. That's another joke. We respect women. We don't care if they're wearing makeup or not wearing makeup. She looks fine. It's just a stupid. stupid joke. Anyway, thank you. But she claimed in her video that she wanted people to stop body shaming. And this all, you know, I woke up today and I started seeing all these bad things

about, and she's talking about Andrew and his nipple rings. And people are body shaming and please stop it. Now, in her entire little body shaming ranch, she doesn't deny it. She doesn't deny that the governor has piercing on his nipples. So are you saying that he went up? to the ex-girlfriend and be like, hey, I know we left things a little awkward, but can you go out there and defend me? No. No? Not at all. No.

I think that she did this on her own. I think he called after she posted it telling her, shut up. That's exactly why I kicked you to the curb. You don't know when to shut up. I don't want to. Now you makes it look like I actually do have it. I have the news dead. My guy said, no, don't worry about it.

I'm going to start wearing jackets. We're going to let this thing die. Wherever I go, I'm going to either have a sport jacket on or I'm going to put a, I'm going to put a polo shirt and a windbreaker on. So it will be fine. But you just open up another can of worms. Shut up. So much more to get to.

I haven't even touched coronavirus today at all. I mean, there's so much more to get to. We've got the Amazon leaked letter that I'm trying. to figure out why it's such a big deal. They talked about detailed plan to smear the fired warehouse organizer. It was a plan of how they were going to handle it. That's what corporations do. I just really trying to bring down Amazon now. You saw the video of the warehouse worker at Amazon that was telling people that we should only be selling, we should only be selling, we should only be selling products that are important to today's world. That's it. If it's not an exact

essential item, then they shouldn't be selling it. We're still selling, and he mentions the adult sexual device, we're still selling those. I got news for you, brough. For a lot of people, those are essential. And when did you become the guy that gets to rule? on high what's essential and what isn't and by the way I think this is a guy has not seen what the state of New York has told its citizens

for the COVID-19 safe practice sex during the COVID one of those adult toys was part of the deal that the state of New York said to do so

shut up exactly right Exactly right. And I, you know, you can't, we can tell them to shut up, no problem. And can Amazon just come out and say, no, we shut up. No, they can't. But when a memo gets leaked out where they're talking about how to handle it and what's best way to handle a warehouse worker who wants to turn everything into a union after we fired him. and the attorney said, you know,

hey, he's not smart or articulate. I mean, he said, the attorney says, my private notes. I was just angry during the meeting. I don't know. I'll be angry too, though. I'll be angry too.

Like, shut up. Like, this is not the time. And I'm noticing, I honestly thought that this COVID-19 was going to bring out, what was going to stop that? I'm seeing it again.

See, again, you just bothered me today. Like, you just made me mad. 76% of people still think the offensive jokes can lead up to hate speech. Now you have a guy that wants to unionize

and wants to stop a major corporation to stop selling non-essential items. By the way, who are you? No, items that he thinks are not. That he thinks, yes, that he thinks are non-essential. And then what's the other one that I saw? Oh, yeah. The Democratic Party is still tweeting that abortion

is a health care right. Can we stop? Can we focus? What is in front of us right now? Which is a million people worldwide are infected with this. We don't have a vaccine yet. We don't have antibodies yet. And the whole economy is shut down.

Can we focus on that first? And the rest of it for later. So I'll leave you with some good news then. I know we're getting close to the end here. And I'll just say I know you think I've just keep, you know, bogging you down and poo-pooing you the last couple days. so I'll just give you good news, okay? Burger King in France has posted a way for you to make the Whopper at home,

so you don't have to go to Burger King. They've tweeted it out there, it's out there, Burger King France revealed how to make your whopper at home. And it takes eight ingredients. You've got the top bun, the onion, the pickles, the ketchup, the beef patty, mayonnaise, lettuce, and tomato, followed by the bottom bun. And there you have it.

You can have your own whopper at home. I won't tell you that it won't taste the same or it's not really the same thing that you're making. I won't tell you that because I don't want to poo-poo anything, but good luck making it. Download and subscribe to more content at the blaze.com slash podcasts. Okay. Do we want the coronavirus numbers?

Americas to wear face coverings in public to slow spread of coronavirus. Move on. Texas City moves to find people who don't cover their faces. Definitely move on because I'm going to be pissed. Lockdowns must last six weeks to bring pandemic under control.

We all know that, so move on. New Jersey governor orders state police to commandeer needed medical supplies. 3.4 million travelers poured into the U.S. as coronavirus pandemic erupted. Again, why are you upsetting me? Over one million... I'm just telling you

read the headlines. Over one million people infected worldwide with you... Oh, those are numbers. Sorry, we'll skip the numbers. Cruise ship with sick people dock in Florida. Okay, can we talk about that one? All right. Let's talk about that one.

Because yesterday I was listening to one of my podcasts. And dude, the cruise ship industry does not qualify for the government bailout. Because they're not American, right? Yep. Yeah. So right now, all these cruise ship companies are looking for buyers. The prediction that the- And if we could buy the cruise industry right now,

if we could have a chewing-the-fat ship, think about it the problem is that in order for you to buy the ship you have to have five billion with a B yeah five billion dollars

just to have the ship I mean I could tell them I have five billion Matt I'll just say you have a trillion and get a couple if we're just going to say you know I have that see that's what gets everybody

is oh okay okay okay okay fine you have, you know, four billions, and they might be able to cut your deal. But right now, the cruise industry does not qualify for a government bailout. It's good. I mean, really kind of good.

Absolutely. They're not American companies. They're not American flagged. They use that as a, they use that as a great barrier for their hiring because they bring in people from other countries and they get away with it because we're not American companies. Well, now you're okay. You're not American companies. We got it. No problem. Good. Thank you. We'll let you doc.

And we'll give you, you know, our people will spend money to go on your cruises. But now when times they're tough, don't come crying. Sorry. Yep. And then so right now, according to, you know, financial advisors and stuff like that, the top bidder China. Yeah, see. Trump needs a cruise ship. We need Trump cruise.

he's a bun. Why doesn't he have one? Why doesn't Trump have a cruise ship? That is true. Don Jr. needs to have a Trump cruise ship right now. Just hose it down for later. It's fine. I'm all for that.

Plus, did you see where the Venezuelan, and by the way, who knew Venezuela had a Navy? But the Venezuelan Navy went to ram into the cruise ship out into the ocean, and it sunk. Not the cruise ship, but the Venezuelan Navy ship. Oh, no wonder. Did they go with a freaking banana boat? Like, how did they go?

I'm reading the story. They come up, they stop, and the ship was out there fixing an engine, and one of the other engines was on idle. So they were doing what they, you know, what they're supposed to be doing out there. The Venezuelan naval vessel shows up and takes some shots and tells them to, you know, you got to bring it in and dock it in Venezuela. And the ship people are like, well, let's call our people and find out if we have to actually do this or what's going on. And the ship people are like, no, go ahead.

Just get that engine fixed and get out of here. Don't worry about it. So the Venezuelan naval vessel starts ramming the ship. Now, the ship is made to go through ice because it takes cruises in the cold waters. Oh, so it's got a hortic stem. It's got a harder haul, right? So the naval vessel is banging into the ship. It sinks.

And so the ship was like, all right, we're, we're out of here. We've got to go. Take care. Take care. So the Venezuelan saying, you took off without helping our people. And they were, you know, we had to go rescue our people. You rammed into us. Why were you ramming on them?

That's the thing. So were they ramming on them because they were not listening to the Venezuela Navy to dog? Yes. Because I'm sorry, if I am a ship, a captain of a ship, and there's another ship ramming into me. I feel like this is pirates. What are we?

Pirates? No, you're not going to be ramming into much. Plus, I'm sure the captain of the ship, when he got the radio message mentioning the Venezuelan Navy, he thought, wait, Venezuela has a Navy? No, that can't be. All right, we're back to headlines.

healthcare workers see wave of coronavirus coming in their ranks. Yeah, we knew that. We're going to move on. Hong Kong scientists look at the disinfection and reuse a face mask. Look, it's coming now where they're saying, and this is something to actually, that will actually may help all of us. They are talking about it is just in the air and breathing, but we have the social distancing. right that's why we told people the social distance but if they're telling you they're starting

to tell everyone if you go out wear a mask and it doesn't have to be an n95 mask they're telling you to at least cover your face they want us all in hijabs and they want us all out there covering your face which uh you know okay which gives you some sort of barrier does it does it does see i was talking about this last night with my in-laws. I think I don't understand it. Like, I feel, I feel that the world wants us to be like China. China wear masks every single day and they...

Well, they don't necessarily do that because of diseases. They do that because the pollution is so bad. The smog. But still, though, I feel like, no. Oh, that doesn't matter. No, I'm not, I'm not going to wear masks. I'm sorry, no. This is America.

If I want to walk through a cloud of COVID-19 in a coronavirus infected air. I'm going to walk through that stupid COVID-19 coronavirus infected air. It's my decision. I should not be, no. And now that you said they once wear a hijab, you know, no, I'm even pissed or now. I don't want to worry. That's what they want.

No. It doesn't matter. It doesn't have to be a mask as long as you're covering your face. So what you're doing is you're not only protecting others from you, you're protecting them to you as well. Right. I mean, it's all for your safety. It's all for your safety.

I know. I know. I get it. I'm sorry. I didn't mean to talk about. We can talk about the Tiger King. I mean, I made it it through. I've watched them all. No. I'm noticing I'm noticing here a thread here. What's that? You're not going to

talk about the elephant in the room, and then I'm not talking about the elephant behind me. what happened to you last night what were you doing last night was trending on trending on social media why was Jeff Fisher

No, I'm sorry to disappoint you, but Bill Wither is trending. It could be because I'm in a different location. So maybe on my area where I'm at, Matt, we care more of a Bank of America. Then, what is it, Bill Withers?

Because you're not in the United States. No, no, I'm not. I left in the cover of night. and decided to flee the country. I apologize. So that is, it's possible. You know, it's a different trend.
