Starting point is 00:00:00 It's week two of Canadian tires early Black Friday sale. These prices won't go lower this year. So you're lying on the floor? Save up the 50% November 13th to 20th. Conditions apply, details online. And now a Blaze Media podcast. Welcome to it, chewing the fat from the COVID-19 quarantine bunker, the CQB baby, and it's anniversary day. And now I'll explain to you what that means throughout the podcast.
Starting point is 00:00:26 But I wanted to be sure I've been questioned all weekend long. news broke that a couple of weeks ago, a Vincent Van Gogh painting was stolen in Amsterdam. I had nothing to do with it. I didn't steal the painting. Would I have liked to? Sure. Can they prove that it wasn't me?
Starting point is 00:00:51 Not really. They can't prove. Who took it? The thieves came, broke the windows. A museum that has millions of dollars of paintings. in it. Somebody can come up and just break the glass around the front door, walk in, take the painting, and walk out. Huh. I would say that maybe, maybe the museum needs to invest it's simply safe, but that's just me. Dry your eyes. Okay, well, get something too dry your eyes.
Starting point is 00:01:25 I know you're not crying yet over the painting, but you think that one thing that can hold steady during the coronavirus pandemic lockdown. The one thing that you grab on to in life and you think
Starting point is 00:01:42 that's not going to go away. It's going to happen. They don't care. Burning Man. No, dry your eyes. Out of the middle of the desert. Black Rock City.
Starting point is 00:02:00 Canceled. So sad. Now, they're going to hold a virtual event. Will the Burning Man virtual event be the same as out in the desert in Black Rock City? I think not. Unless, I mean, maybe people will ride their bikes in their driveway naked.
Starting point is 00:02:16 And we'll get footage on Zoom. We'll have the Burning Man's Zoom party get together. But kind of sad. Kind of sad, actually. All weekend. You know what? I want to talk to you about it. I have like a billion things to talk to you about today.
Starting point is 00:02:34 But all I really want to talk about is quibby. that's all I want to talk about. I want to talk to you about things that are going to be disappearing soon. I want to talk to you about I got a tweet from, you know, who Lewis Hose is. You know, he's the, he's the guy, the motivational guy, he's former NFL. I mean, I believe, I think I've met him once or twice, too. He was here at the Mercury Studios at one point. really nice guy.
Starting point is 00:03:08 And he's always, you know, tweeting motivational stuff and lots of no things about people. And he tweeted out his 15 habits that drain energy. And his question is, you know, what three habits relate to you most right now? What three out of the 15? And I read the list and I'm like, number one, overthinking, inconsistent sleeping patterns, dwelling on the past, interacting with toxic people. Poor diet, no physical activity, holding onto anger and resentment, taking things personally, negativity, worrying what others think of you, constantly trying to prove something to others, complaining. Well, okay, I really don't complain much, so maybe 14 out of 15.
Starting point is 00:04:02 always checking notifications constantly worrying I thought that was up there again and participating in drama so if those habits are your life you're draining your energy and you need to rethink your life a little bit
Starting point is 00:04:23 according to lowest now if he thinks that three of the 15 are dragging me down 15 of the 15 of the 15 team, whew. I am in the ditch, man.
Starting point is 00:04:38 Something's got to happen. Something has got to happen. But again, really? All I want to talk about is Squabby. All right. I spent the weekend. I saw the picture.
Starting point is 00:04:51 I saw the picture that your wife posted on her Instagram. And just let you know I have the same setup in my room. same set up i got the neck thing but see mine i don't put it on my neck i have it uh where it goes from the backboard of my bed it goes over my face so all i have to do slate and look up and boom there is right now let me ask you a question how close to your face is it because i the the neck thing i like but i wish i could make it i have it as far away as it
Starting point is 00:05:29 it go? Yes, yes. I wish I could make it go a little bit farther. Yes. I was saying, I like to, if I'm at the table, I put it on a little stand. Yeah. I'll put the phone on a little stand so it's a little bit farther away. I want it about one arm and a half length of those of you, for those of you watching today, I want it about there. Yeah. You know, if you're watching live. I want it. I'm out there. I'm holding my hands out like this and you see a full arm. They can see. You don't have to tell us. Oh, okay, sorry full arm and then half another arm you know like when you sit at your desk I want it that far I feel like that um well that's only about an arm yes yes if I say if you lean back it's an arm I'm gonna have yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah like I feel that that whatever thing you call
Starting point is 00:06:15 that a neck thing for the iPhone or whatever phone you use I think that's way too close to my face I don't like it yeah I got I wasn't too great although you know after you know a minute you go okay that's where it's at yeah yeah yeah yeah especially you lay not you land on the couch and you know that thing just it's right there you're like well might as well just watch it's sitting right there
Starting point is 00:06:38 that's where it's at it's not like I have the next thing uh huh so then I have the headphones okay have your phone and then I've if you're the our sofa I have an opportunity you can it has a charger in the armrest
Starting point is 00:06:54 so I can have the charger just plug right in Oh, but. Oof, that's dangerous, by the way. Those are some dangerous ground because... Oh, there are God. Yes, it is because not only... It's never going to die, so you're going to be there watching all the content.
Starting point is 00:07:09 I know. Headphones in, so that means that there's no interruptions. Thank you. You know, you look down like, wait, who turned off the shades? Oh, no. It's nighttime. Oh, yeah. Oh, that, please.
Starting point is 00:07:21 There's no doubt about that. No doubt about that. Ever so often, somebody in the family walks up. and you just see lips moving so you have to reach out and pause what oh i just say yes i'm like uh-huh uh-huh uh-huh okay i'll do it later they give me that face of like what i just ask me a sandwich i just ask if you want to like go for a walk yeah yeah yeah i'll do it later i'll do it later yeah so but i have now then i thought oh you know i'm not always going to be up the sofa it was a wishful thinking.
Starting point is 00:07:55 And I thought, so what we have, my wife bought a while ago, these portable chargers. That's even more dangerous. So you charge those. You got to make sure, I mean, they charge out their own, right? But they're portable chargers, so you keep them. And they stay, they hold the charge for a long time
Starting point is 00:08:12 until you use them, right? And she bought them for camping. Right? So if she's out, if they're out camping, portable chargers. I use them so that I don't have to worry about my phone dying when I'm on Quibi. That's funny. Oh, by the way, I do want to ask this, how's that camping going? It's going great.
Starting point is 00:08:32 Social distancing, man. You're out there. So camping is still happening. Yeah, no. But, no. I don't understand why, but it is not. Apparently, apparently you can't pitch a tent six feet apart. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:08:51 I don't know. Maybe it's me. I mean, you can't do anything anymore, right? Come on. You can't. You can't do something. You can't do something. The cop is chasing the beach. It's ridiculous.
Starting point is 00:09:02 Be advised that the cops either will chase you or try to shoot you down with like a drone. See, I looked at that differently. I figured the guy was trying to stay six feet away from the car. It was a social distance. He's trying to stay away from the guy. Did you see the same tweet of like the Rocky music and all that stuff? Is that the same tweet they saw? Because that was...
Starting point is 00:09:22 No, I didn't see the survivor. It doesn't surprise me, but... Oh, it was great. The cop is trying to come. You know, he's walking. The runner, the beach runs a little bit, run a little bit. And he just full on Rocky and then the music changes to the Rocky. And then you can see the cop like, oh, I just give up.
Starting point is 00:09:40 It's not worth it. Did I tell you how much we support the police officer in this? Oh my gosh. No show supports the police department more than this show. Because they are... pissing me off Jeff Fisher. I hope you have any stories in there because I feel that today I'm going to have to donate to a police department or something because oh I love the police department why are the police department what are they following the orders like this what do they do I love
Starting point is 00:10:10 Michigan police departments I love Tennessee police departments Kentucky police department Mississippi police departments oh you guys have a I love the the yellow jacket people working on the septa bus lines of philadelphia oh those guys have a special place in my heart oh my goodness i i pray for you guys every night because ah there's no one that gets on their knees and prays for health and protection over you guys than me because my goodness if i'm not praying for you i am choking you out every single one of you Maybe in Philadelphia. It's just aside from what's going on in Kentucky at the churches or Michigan at the stores
Starting point is 00:10:58 or Michigan telling you you can't go to, you know, a house, another house that you own. You know, we talked about that. Heaven forbid you have more than one house, you rich, evil person. And you want to go social distance at your other house. Oh my gosh. No, that can't happen. Aren't you social distance in a car? Anyway, aside from that, you'd think it would be.
Starting point is 00:11:21 be perhaps here at the beginning of our pandemic and we're telling people, hey, if you're riding on a bus, you have to wear a mask, which by the way, I'm not quite sure I agree with, but you're just telling them you have to wear a mask. You have to cover a few face. You have to. Fine. So you come on the bus and you say, hey, the two people that don't have masks on, here's a mask. make sure you have your own in the future or you're going to get thrown off. Wouldn't that be easier than trying to drag someone off a bus? No, Fisher, no, because what you have to do is you got to grab them by the waist and then pull them by their legs and then, you know, make sure that they're off the bus
Starting point is 00:12:06 and then, you know, throw his phone to the ground and then, you know, just walk like nothing happened, you know, and do a, I don't know, a 12 versus 1 because last, time I checked, we need 12 police officers. You have to, well, you being a former gate guard should know this better than anyone. You know, I'm sorry, a military police officer. And they're just doing that for the man's safety. You need multiple officers to make sure the guy's safe. Yes, the guy is safe and put on a mask.
Starting point is 00:12:42 And you throw his phone on the ground and in the, you know, you. You may have called him a little bitch as he was walking away. You know, like I said, you know, for his safety. You know, he'll be like, yeah, you little bitch. You know, it's just, you know. Is that a quote? Do we know that actually happened? I don't know, you know, because there was so many of them.
Starting point is 00:13:05 And everybody was wearing masks so I couldn't see lips moving. But I think I heard, you little bitch. I heard that. And, you know, like I said, you know, no one in this show prays more for the Philips. Philadelphia Police Department because then, man. I can tell you this household praise for them. Anything in Philadelphia, this household pays for it. Okay. Okay.
Starting point is 00:13:25 No question. Anyway, back to Quibi. So I spent the weekend, I thought, you know what, I'm going to break down. I'm going to start searching a little bit to see what they have, see what's up. I did the YouTube videos on it. I did the full review on it, and then I gave you a quick update review on not being able to mirror it to the TV, which is very so angry. way, that was the best update YouTube video ever. Because it proves that I was right.
Starting point is 00:13:54 Just update it up. Yeah, like I said, it proves that I was right and you were wrong. All I know is, is that I just know that you can't mirror it. You can mirror it to your TV until you hit play on the shows. Which is what I said, which is what I said the first time. I'm just telling you what happens. That's fine. That's fine.
Starting point is 00:14:13 You could tell me all you want that. But like I said, that first time. where you said, hey, throw it up on the TV. I yelled at the wife. I told her, is it playing? She's like, yeah. All right, my boss did play. She says, it went dark.
Starting point is 00:14:26 It went dark. And I know everybody went back and listened to that podcast because... I do not recall that at all. Oh, okay. That's fine. That's fine. So what shows? I wish it would.
Starting point is 00:14:38 You know what? I wish it would because I'd like to share. I'd like to watch, especially after yesterday, the shows that I watch yesterday. I'd like to share it. I'd like to involve other people watching it at the same time. No, you have to get their own account. Get you an account. Get you on account.
Starting point is 00:14:55 We've got to get our numbers up. We've got to get our numbers up. I know for the in-between times. In-between times. I get it. They're spending a lot of money. The production on these shows are tremendous. Yes.
Starting point is 00:15:05 And by the way, I do not know I needed something for the in-between times until yesterday. I know. Well, I mean, I believe Katzenberg and Whitman from the day one. I thought it was a great idea from day one. And I mean that seriously. I really did. I was like, there's no way I'm going to be tired because I want more and more and more. I'm sitting at Kroger waiting for my groceries to be delivered to my car.
Starting point is 00:15:30 I got nothing else to watch because I know it's not going to be 30 minutes. So I pull up. I watch two episodes of Flipped. I got all caught up. And the guy knocks on my... Groceries are here. Oh, okay, thank you. Okay, so I didn't start flipped yet.
Starting point is 00:15:49 Okay. I'm going to, but I watched Most Dangerous Game. Yeah, that's a good one. Tremendous. I mean, today is the eighth episode drops, which I will catch. Because I might hold off watching today just so I have a couple of episodes to watch. Yeah, yeah, I do that too. Yeah, I do that too.
Starting point is 00:16:09 But that's with Liam Hensworth and Christopher Waltz. What a great show. Great premise. I can see, I know, I think I already know where it's going to, how it's going to end up. But I really love it's about, you know, if you get an opportunity to watch it, it's, you know, he's a really, a guy that ends up being sick and he's going to make money and it's on the hunt, right? It's based, it's a hunt. Yes, yes. It's a hunt.
Starting point is 00:16:36 And he's being hunted and he's being hunted for money. Yes. Because he needs the money. And he's going in the show, he's diagnosed that he's. going to die. So he's on his last leg. And Christopher Walts is the guy that's setting up the hunt. Who I love. He's great. If you don't know who Christopher
Starting point is 00:16:52 Waltz is, when you see his face, you'll go, oh yeah, him. And he's fantastic. Then I watched, for whatever reason, I don't know why I started watching it, but I thought I'll give it a shot. Survivor with Sophie Turner and Curry Hawkins. So I thought,
Starting point is 00:17:08 I'll sit through here. Every time I was at the point in Survivor of going, okay, that's enough. It hit me with something that kept me going. Nice. Oh, that's some good writing. That's some good writing. Yep. It's really good. And then I went to when the street lights go on. Okay. Holy cow. I've really enjoyed that. That's got Queen Latifah, Mark Duplas.
Starting point is 00:17:33 And all the other characters are really good on their characters so far. Yeah. I'm only seven episodes in. Which is seven episodes times six, you know, you make the math, you watch one full episode. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, it feels like, I mean, at the end of, you have to keep going.
Starting point is 00:17:55 You have to. Yes. Only like seven, there's seven to, all the episodes are seven to ten minutes long. Yes. Some are like seven and a half. Some are like nine and a half. And so, I mean, it just, it's like, I can't not hit next. Exactly.
Starting point is 00:18:11 Exactly. And by the way, just have you opened your app today? Have you opened it at all today? No. Oh, get ready, baby. They just dropped some new shows. And I'm just going to give you the titles of the new shows. Are you ready?

Starting point is 00:19:27 This is the donkey one? Yes. Let's roll with Tony Greenhan. A lot of these shows are in. I'm okay. I haven't got to the What's Your Face one yet. I have to make myself watch what's her face just for, you know, you know, you have to watch Christy Teigen.
Starting point is 00:19:49 That's what I'm saying. First episode. That's all I'm asking for. It's six minutes and 20-something seconds. All I'm asking you for actually, it's a full commercial break of this podcast. Full commercial break. So as soon as we go to commercial, you watch it, come back, full review. I don't think I'm asking for too much.
Starting point is 00:20:08 Well, you are. but I'll make myself watch it. And then, of course, I mean, it's Sunday. And, you know, I'm normally ready for Walking Dead, which doesn't broadcast because they're done now, right? It's over. The season eight, they weren't able to produce the final episode for the season finale and go on to the new show. So then, I mean, you got to watch the special episode of the Tiger King. Tiger King and I on Netflix took the place of Walking Dead last night.
Starting point is 00:20:39 So I caught Tiger King and I, the special episode, did it drop. About all the characters on Tiger King did another special interview show. And it was very interesting. Did you not watch the TMZ Tiger King special that Fox did? No. No, I did not. Not yet. Did you watch that?
Starting point is 00:21:02 No, I don't have live TV. So I have to win until it gets added on Hulu, if they're going to add it on Hulu. We'll be right back. Some disappointing. All right. Even on anniversary day, we have to go to the break grill when I need to drink
Starting point is 00:21:29 Coca-Cola Zero Sugar. Desperately. So good. You know, they haven't run out of Coke Zero's yet. And I'm a fan. So we're shutting down Big Factory. because of the coronavirus.
Starting point is 00:21:51 If someone at the Coke factory gets coronavirus, don't tell me we'll just walk out. This is between you and me. Don't start, don't say, oh, I think I have coronavirus. I think we've got to shut down production. Turn around and walk out.
Starting point is 00:22:06 I don't want that production line to slow down. Well, they already shut down the one in Canada because one of them tested positive. Remember that? We talked about that. Yes. So that's their bug and be down. So that already happened.
Starting point is 00:22:18 I'm just telling them. people at the production companies that delivered to this area. Okay. The DFW area. If you think there's a possibility that you have coronavirus, shut your face, go. Don't start telling people, oh, I think I have coronavirus. I don't want that production line to shut down because we've shut down the Smithfield's foods because employees have tested positive for coronavirus.
Starting point is 00:22:44 I mean, holy cow. What? What do Smith and foods do? Uh, that's a pork plant, pork processing plant. Oh, okay. Okay. So now we have meat. I mean, that's bacon, ham, sausage.
Starting point is 00:23:00 Oh, thank you. Well, you know, as a person that shoots his meals, I haven't gone to the grocery store in a while to purchase meat. So, um, that would affect me. So, uh, sorry, Hunter. Thank you. Thank you. Not to be confused with Hunter, but. biting though i don't like that

Starting point is 00:25:20 You're welcome. You see the Julian Assange story? Well, I bet Pamela Anderson is pissed right now. Well, she's still working without divorce, right? Because the last time we know about Pamela Anderson and she was getting that divorce that the guy never filed the paperwork, correct? Right, but I remember she was going to visit Julian Assange. Yeah, yeah, before. That Julian has been in prison.
Starting point is 00:25:43 And so then I see the story today where his lawyer, Assange's lawyer, claims that he fathered. two of her kids. Oh! Dun, dun, done, done! The thing is,
Starting point is 00:25:55 I read this entire story. Okay. It's fascinating story. Fascinating story how he's secretly followed the two children
Starting point is 00:26:03 while he was holed up at the embassy and now he's in prison and now she's this out, Stella Morris, who by the way, she's a beautiful woman.
Starting point is 00:26:15 Okay. You know, I could well understand how someone would, you know, your hold up at the Ecuadorian embassy. I can well understand how something might happen.
Starting point is 00:26:29 But if you had Pamela Anderson, Stella Morris. Pamela Anderson Stella Morris. You'd probably pick a Pamela. Maybe that. Maybe that.
Starting point is 00:26:42 I don't know. But the entire story goes on. Not one time does it say anything about Julian Assange saying this is true. So is this just the reporter? This is the reporter? Oh, the attorney.
Starting point is 00:27:01 It's just a reporter telling the story from the attorney saying that these last two kids she's had is Julian Assange's. Nowhere in the story doesn't say. And Julian said he's happy about it. And this is Julian Assange's lawyer that is talking to the reporter. Yes What the heck It's nowhere in the store What's the angle on this?
Starting point is 00:27:24 I don't know That's what I'm saying Is she asking for money Is she asking for support Is she asking for recognition No I want to make sure that you Did you actually read the right story I don't make sure that like
Starting point is 00:27:39 The right story No it was about Julianne Ossange And all they talked about was NASA Rockets The UPS PES it was the right story Okay That's weird. It talks about how he's been
Starting point is 00:27:50 the monitoring of Julian Assange and the moving from prison to prison and how he's possible that he could have you know, coronavirus now. This is what she's worried about. She's worried about she's not going to be able to see him anymore because of the coronavirus. But nowhere this entire story
Starting point is 00:28:07 doesn't say, and Julian Assad wants to get home to his kids. Or yes, these kids belong to me and boy, I can't wait to see him. My other... I'm really in love with this. My other thought about this is Pamela still wants to have a relationship with this guy? Well, but how do we know that this isn't just a made-up thing from her?
Starting point is 00:28:29 Well, why would we made up from her when the lawyer's talking about it? Is the lawyer trashing her? She is the lawyer. She's one of his attorneys. Pamela? No. No, that's what I'm saying. Like, is Pamela still wants to be with him?
Starting point is 00:28:45 Oh, I don't know. because that's what I'm getting all confused about because the lawyer is talking to the reporter. The story doesn't mention Pamela. That's just me. Oh, okay. Okay. Concerned about Pamela's well-being. Okay. Because that's what I'm telling me. Like,
Starting point is 00:29:00 Pamela still wants to be with this guy? Like, that's what was all confused. I was like, honey, focus on the divorce that you're going through right now. I know. Well, she used to go visit him at the Ecuadorian embassy. Right now that he's been in prison. There's no way she gets to. Well, she hasn't visited.
Starting point is 00:29:16 He hasn't visited him ever since he went to prison, right? That's where. Yeah, that's what I'm saying. So I don't think Pamela is worried. And by the way, how many kids will Pamela have? If she gave birth to two of them that are his, that factory still open? The attorney did. Oh, the attorney.
Starting point is 00:29:34 Okay. My gosh, man. Are you not even listening to the little store? No, I am. You're reading between the lines got me confused with the facts. Okay, let me stop you for a second. Pamela Anderson has nothing to do with this story. I just said Pamela Anderson's got to be pissed.
Starting point is 00:29:51 Okay. Because this lady, Stella Morris, the South African-born lawyer, is claiming that she began a relationship with Assange, a secret romance while he was at the Ecuadorian embassy. And he fathered two of her kids. Nowhere in the story. doesn't say and we reached out to Julian and he said can't wait to get home to the kids
Starting point is 00:30:21 yes I'm in love with this attorney yes I've been in love with her the whole time I mean it's just it could be a fantasy from this lady's side does Julian have other kids or is this
Starting point is 00:30:33 I do not know because I don't remember I remember Julian ever being on the side of a female during the entire WikiLeaks you know, explosion. It was just Julian Assange,
Starting point is 00:30:47 Julian Assange. Yeah, there wasn't family members standing up with this. Which is one of the reasons why everybody in the whole world was like, dude, go with a family, find you family. And they're like, oh yeah, he doesn't have a family.
Starting point is 00:31:00 It's just Julian Assange. So that, I mean, like, do I care? No. If Julian Assange has had these couple of kids, no. But I found it fascinating. Because I'm like, oh, wow, Julian's, you know, a couple of kids from his attorney. He's been, you know, I made her pregnant and I'm doing all this.
Starting point is 00:31:18 And I keep waiting for at least something from one of the prison. So all I'm hearing is that you would like me to reach out to Julian Assange for a comment. Oh, my gosh. About this story. Yes. Okay. If we can. Oh, I would freaking love to talk to Julianne and Assange.
Starting point is 00:31:36 I don't think he's taking our calls right now, but let me. No, we can. He's in. What prison is? in right now. Is he in America? I'm pretty sure they have internet. Well, it depends.
Starting point is 00:31:47 If he's still in a third world country, do they even have a computer? No, we're not a third world country. Stop it. Okay. So April 2019, Assange was moved to Bell Marsh Prison. Where is that? That was high security prison.
Starting point is 00:32:03 That was... So that's... It's Belmarsh in England. They have, and he's not even being guarded by Scotland Yard anymore. They were guarding him and then he said, oh, it's too much money. We're not guarding. Yeah, by the way, Bill Marsh, that's called Her Majesty Prison, Bill Marge, is a class, is a category A man's prison in fames made southeast London, England,
Starting point is 00:32:34 and is run by Her Majesty's Prison Service. Whoa. Get him on the phone. What kind of producer are you can't get Julian on the phone? I'm about to go work for Her Majesty Prison Service. They sound great. I am. Julian, is he on the phone yet?
Starting point is 00:32:56 Seriously, Julian, hello. I can do a little coronavirus update for you. Almost 2 million total cases in the world right now. 1,887,500 cases worldwide. 117,562 total deaths as of this recording. In the USA, we have 565,316 cases with 22,876 deaths as of this recording. And yesterday, only 90,000,000. I shouldn't say only.
Starting point is 00:33:52 That makes it seem like there was very little. So just let me say, we know that a year ago, we were getting between two and three million travelers through TSA every day. And since yesterday was Easter Sunday, well, wouldn't have been the same day. It was Easter weekend. They had about two and a half million people through TSA last year. Yesterday, 90,510 people through TSA.
Starting point is 00:34:22 I mean, ghost town, right? Ghost town. Now there was, there's an airport in Japan that has built, this is coming to an airport near you soon. For the homeless people, this is what they're going to do. Japan has built cardboard hotels for the stranded travelers that have to be quarantined. Okay, so if you go through, if you're in Japan, you're an international traveler,
Starting point is 00:34:53 at the baggage claim area, they've got these cardboard, they're calling them cardboard hotels, but they're just hard cardboard that you can lay on that are kind of like little cubicles. So you have your little space. Everybody's got their little luggage cart and their cardboard space and they're six feet apart. And that's coming to them.
Starting point is 00:35:16 That's coming to a baggage claim area near you soon, man. We will be doing that in America soon. Guaranteed. And when they say it's for quarantine, they're going to do it, and it's going to be set up for quarantine for the pandemic. And then after the pandemic, well, we might as well leave them here for the homeless people so that they have a place to lay. Yes, sir, yes, sir.
Starting point is 00:35:40 I refuse. I refuse to think that's going to happen in my mind. America. It's going to happen in Japan and China and other third world countries, but not in my America. Not in my America and definitely not in Terminal A here in the DFW area. Although the cardboard cut off, they'll be down at E. You know what? You're so right. You know, funny you say that. You know, I usually do guest pitches off the air, but I want to do one on the air because I got one. over the weekend and I felt this is so us, but I'm not going to jump into conclusion.
Starting point is 00:36:22 I have a homeless expert that would like to join us on this show. I'm going to be talking to myself. Well, you have a home. So even if it's the trailer house, you are an expert, but I would love to invite this homeless expert to talk about the homeless population. Yes. The answer is yes to the homeless.
Starting point is 00:36:46 expert. We absolutely will talk to them. Now, I want to be clear, is he calling himself a homeless expert or she? Oh, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to jump to conclusions that the homeless expert was a he. No, it's a he. It's a he. Okay. Do we know what he identifies as? As a he. Okay. So is he calling himself, hey, interview me. I'm a homeless expert. I know I wrote a book on homeless people that's 10, pages long and I know about it. Or is he actually, you know, know something about what's happening to the homeless people. So according to him, he is a community advocate and president of the New York Central Park South Civic Association.
Starting point is 00:37:31 I love the New York Central Park Civic Association. Yes. Now, he's in charge of the South. Yeah, the Central Park South. Okay. So not to be confused with Central Park. East or Central Park West and how dare you even try to put him in the same room of Central Park
Starting point is 00:37:54 North because no chick that runs Central Park North she's up you don't have to mess with her no no but according to this email he is available to discuss the crisis level in the homeless epidemic oh we definitely have to talk to this guy I think so too right you know no one here supports homeless than we do in this network. That's clear. And we try to help the homeless by showing them where to go when it gets a little bit chilly. Right. Thank you.
Starting point is 00:38:28 Special here today, man. It is chilly like there's no tomorrow. Winter's back in DFW. It'll be gone tomorrow. And winter's back. So the last two days, 90 degrees today, freezing. Yes, 44. I mean, last night, last night, between.

Starting point is 00:39:45 Yeah, yeah, I got it. Oh, He was able to knock pretty loudly. That makes me feel better. All right. So I have to talk. We've got so much more to talk about, which we will talk about on the podcast.

I mean If we want You know these things of porcelain I have in this house If you want to do the traditional gift theme is porcelain If you want to do the you know the gemstone for that year
Starting point is 00:43:07 18 year is cat eye alternative Opal aquamarine I mean I've already covered out there of the porcelain We've got rooms devoted to porcelain in this house. So already. I don't think it's like you give her
Starting point is 00:43:27 a porcelain that she already has is that you get her a new porcelain to add to the list. I just added a new thing to one of the rooms not long ago. Was that today? No. Okay. Then it doesn't
Starting point is 00:43:43 count. Because today is your word anniversary. Not a few days ago or whenever you decided to get her a portion of that room. Four weeks ago, but that's not the point. Okay. Okay. So, you know, by the way, it's looking
Starting point is 00:43:59 pretty good for 1920. 19 is bronze. 20 is China. Oof. It's just it gets worse from there, buddy. He gets worse. I can't get worse, Chris, because it can only get better. Okay.
Starting point is 00:44:18 I don't know. I mean, I've been married for, 30 years of my life. Okay. I had 30 years of my life. I was married to my first wife. 12. 30, maybe more than 30 years, Melanie. Boy, if you say, if you say 12 and 18, that is 30. No, I understand. Just unless you know, like, like, you know, 12 years. I can't remember if I, I can't remember exactly how long I was married to my first wife. So like, you know, if you say 12 for the problem. If you say 12 for the first one,
Starting point is 00:44:51 and 18 for the second one. My mass says 30. If I had, but I know that. I know that. But in my head, I'm thinking, I said 12,
Starting point is 00:45:00 but in my head, I'm thinking I don't really, I could have been more. I just don't remember. So is it a 12 plus or minus five? No, not even that. I mean,
Starting point is 00:45:12 it could have been 13 or 14 tops for the first one. I feel like it was like 12. I feel like it was 12. Well, it's not about feelings here because this show does not care about feelings, okay? Okay, so we'll just say 30. And 18 of them have been with Amber. Mary, we've been together longer than that. So, and it's been nothing.
Starting point is 00:45:33 Hold on. I want to do some math in here. I feel like, I feel like, okay, so. What's your problem? You've been 18 years. Okay, so you'd be met for 18 years with this one. You know her for longer. Oh, we've been together for longer.
Starting point is 00:45:49 So how much longer? Like, would... A couple years. It would be something like that? So would you say 21 years together? And it only feels like a year. Okay. So it just feels like it was yesterday.
Starting point is 00:46:01 21 years. Okay. I feel like it was... I feel like we've been together for 20? 20? Okay, fine. We'll keep it simple. If she may, if she may text you and say, hey, idiot.
Starting point is 00:46:14 It looks longer. 24, but okay. Maybe if you stop smoking, you were remembered. That's why I love her. That's why I love her. That's why this 18 years. And then with your first wife, you were married, you know, plus or minus 12. Because I was with her longer as well. Okay.
Starting point is 00:46:32 So how long were you with her like you thinking? Oh, that was a while. So would you say 20 years knowing your first wife? Oh, yeah. Yeah? Well, okay. No? No.
Starting point is 00:46:44 No. Is that too low or too high? It's too high. Too high? Well, you say 15 years. Yeah. Okay. We'll keep it.
Starting point is 00:46:53 It was a little more than that. Okay. Would have been 18 years. Oh, my God. This is not working. Do I hear 18 in the back? 18? Did I do, do it?
Starting point is 00:47:07 18. 18. 18. 18. 18. Oh, all right. Well, we hear 18. 18.
Starting point is 00:47:10 18 right here. So that gives us a total of 38 years of you in relationship. with his two females, right? Okay. All right. And I feel that it's not adding up. To my guesstimate of how old you are, it's not adding up. What's that?
Starting point is 00:47:33 It's not adding up here. There's some years missing. Really? Yeah. Like, what do you want for me? It's just my anniversary day. I love my wife. I'm happy that we've been together for all these years.
Starting point is 00:47:46 I've done the luck. There's a pandemic going on, so I can't, you know, go out and get a present and take her out to dinner. She's just going to have to, you know, cook dinner here for me. By the way, the person that wrote this article about what is the traditional gift for the 18th wedding anniversary, listen to the shoe and the fat. And you're going to tell me. I'm going to give you the evidence of why this person, you know, listen to the shit in the fact, because it says,
Starting point is 00:48:15 the 18th anniversary is traditional porcelain giving you a plethora of anniversary gifts to choose Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. We appreciate you listening and chewing with that. I would appreciate it even better if you're giving us credit. By the way, the 18th anniversary gift idea for men, porcelain shaving set.
Starting point is 00:48:41 Oh, I love that. I love that. I must. It looks like I haven't. shaving a while but I love It does look like that but I love shaving sets. I have like three of them that I don't use but just by look at them makes me feel more mentally.
Starting point is 00:48:56 But it doesn't really I thought we didn't do feelings really. Oh okay. I like this I'm gonna keep this. Do you have are they porcelain? No they're metal because I like I like that heavy feeling and they're the traditional horses like the original. Yes yes they are but the reason why I like
Starting point is 00:49:15 this is because they make me feel like I'm at a barbershop because it's a heavy barbershop metal one that you put it in your face and it's like cold barbershop uses the porcelain is all i'm saying you know don't block me that with my gifts you know from what i saw on that youtube video of how you shave and your shaving kit um you're pretty modern you don't use anything old-fashioned no you're not so don't talk about My shaving. I have an old straight razor.
Starting point is 00:49:50 I have one old straight razor that I use to cut open packages and stuff. I still, when I shave, like, when I... I don't think that's what it's supposed to be used for. It doesn't because I use mine when I'm trying to shape up my beard. I use a single racer, and I have like 5,000 razors. I'm talking about an actual straight razor, though. You know, what that pops open and it's a long straight razor. Yeah, that one.
Starting point is 00:50:14 Yeah, and I have... shaving straight racers. Yeah, but you do have to buy the extra stuff so that when that one shaver stop shaving, you open it up, you put a new shaver inside. No. I don't know. I'm talking about the straight razor. Do you not know what a straight razor is?
Starting point is 00:50:31 Holy cow. I forget that you're not American. I'm sorry. I apologize. Oh. Happy anniversary. Happy anniversary to my wife. Do not Google just straight?
Starting point is 00:50:41 Because then straight stuff comes up. don't Google just straight. Yeah. That's the search engine tip of the day. Yeah, that's the one that I have. Yes, you have to crack it open so you can put a new blade inside. No, it's its own blade. So you sharpen it every single time?
Starting point is 00:51:08 Well, you can. Yes, and I suppose if you used it properly, you would. But if you just use it open packages as a, you know, as a knife, you don't. but no that's not what you don't understand what a straight razor is I'm not talking about the old metal type blades that's the one that I was talking about and by the way just for let you know
Starting point is 00:51:29 razor is spelled R-A-Z-O-R not R-A-Z-O-R just so that you know like like razor razor no that's not a that's not a thing that's not a thing razors anything.
Starting point is 00:51:49 By the way, I want to have a conversation with you and I feel like you just blowing me off. We had it off the air. I thought you were going to talk about it earlier, but we have not talk about it. Can we talk about it now? Because this is a great conversation. We can't do now. We've already yapped about the anniversary stuff now.
Starting point is 00:52:07 I was going to do some headlines. I mean, this conversation is going to be longer then. Okay. Can you pencil me in for tomorrow? I'd be happy to I want to talk about it. But I also I also want to keep the podcast down from two or three hours long. Okay, how about this? How about this?
Starting point is 00:52:22 You keep after it. It can't be that long. How about this? I mean, I could go for hours every day. How about we mean you do a YouTube video about this conversation? Okay. I like that a lot. I do too.
Starting point is 00:52:37 Absolutely. Because I feel that this conversation is visual and it needs to show our faces expressions. I love that. Okay. I love it. Let's do some headlines. lines. I can't, uh, I'd love to do it today, but it's anniversary special, uh, tonight. And we're just partying. Do not make me call your wife right now and ask her if there's
Starting point is 00:52:58 anything planned for tonight? We do. We all kinds of stuff planned. What are you doing? You're in quarantine, babe. You can't go outside. I know. You are going to have, we're going to have dinner in our dining room alone like it's a special, like it's our special evening. Okay. And then we're going to, Then we're going to come upstairs and be alone up here just like we're out for a little stroll with a cup of coffee. And then we're going to be alone in the magic room. You know what I'm talking about with that, my friend. I don't. What are you talking about?
Starting point is 00:53:33 If you watch my YouTube video on the original Quibi review, you know, that I did that video in the magic room. and I think you know what happens in the magic room. You watch Queeby? No, there's a regular TV in that room. Okay. We don't have to do headlines. I just want to let people know. You know, there's so much coronavirus headlines,
Starting point is 00:54:05 and sometimes I feel like we should do at least so you know what's going on. You know, like the Prime Minister Boris Johnson from the United Kingdom was discharged from the hospital after being treated in the ICU for COVID-19. He claimed that it was, I mean, he was touch and go there, right? Yeah. It was scary. Stanford MBA students petitioning for a refund on their tuition.
Starting point is 00:54:28 No? No. Walt Disney World Resort going to furlough of 43,000 workers. Okay. Thank you for saying that. What is the difference between furlough and getting fired? Isn't that the same thing?
Starting point is 00:54:43 Because you're still at the end of the day, you have no job. You have no job. Yeah. Yeah, that's just a... Because I know. Notice, it was one of the Blaze stories that said, you know, we, we furlough 4,000 people. No, we fired 10% of our, some company fired 10% of their people and then furlough a couple of thousands. So what's the difference?
Starting point is 00:55:07 So I feel like it's a word game, but, you know, there's more to it than that. Yeah, let me Google it. Okay. It's a word game so that they are able to keep their hooks in you. Okay. And so like if I say Chris, you're fired. Well, how dare you? Because I know all your dark secrets and I'm going to tell them all.
Starting point is 00:55:31 So how dare you fire me? You son of a hypothetical. This is hypothetical. Relax. No, I said if, if. I didn't hear that if. It's about the word game. I just heard I fired you and I was about to let it fly.
Starting point is 00:55:44 So like I said, if I were to say I fired you, then you, it's, you would say, oh, geez, no problem, Jeff, I'll just find another job and you would leave. You cannot know me. So, but if I say you're laid off, right, that means that you're still without a job. Hello, that's just a nice way of saying you're fired. In the old days, it used to be if you get laid off, then you had to get unemployment benefits. Like when I was growing up with all the foundry workers and factory workers would get laid off, and they would get laid off and they would go get unemployment benefits and they would get a I feel like when they all those guys got laid off they would get unemployment benefits and they would get like a reduced insurance package.
Starting point is 00:56:36 Oh, okay. Got it. And then if you, so I feel like that now in today's world furloughed is kind of like the new laid off. Yeah. Is that right? Yeah. Yeah. So according to this.
Starting point is 00:56:51 What does the dictionary? Google said. Thank you for because dictionary. com says that furlough is a temporary layoff from work. Okay. In general, people are not paid during furloughs, but they get to keep employment benefits such as health insurance. Interesting. So they get to keep it all.
Starting point is 00:57:13 So basically you still are in the roster of employment. but you don't get paid. So you can still go to the doctor, go to the dentist. If you're not getting paid, who's paying for the insurance? The company. No.
Starting point is 00:57:29 Oh, no, because it comes out of your paycheck. It comes out of your paycheck. You're right. Well, that's another, that's somebody for HR. I'll try to find someone from HR. He's losing insurance, which is why we need,
Starting point is 00:57:41 you know, everybody to be covered for free. And then they are, according to this, According to this, layoff is when an employer dismisses an employees due to no longer can afford to pay them, their business is down, or economic reasons like coronavirus. The last part I added. Yeah, it's the same thing. Just one of them is you get no health benefits.
Starting point is 00:58:07 The other one is you get health benefits. But they did say that usually a furlough happens in the government. government shutdowns. So like, but again, if I get laid off and that means that I have to go on. Unemployment. Unemployment and I have to, if I want to keep my health insurance, I have to go on. Cobra. Yeah, Cobra.
Starting point is 00:58:34 So if I get furlough and do I just, I don't have to go on, I wonder if I still have to go on Cobra or if I just have to pay for the insurance. Well, also I do remember when I went on furloughed. It's not COBRA. Yeah. When I went on furlough, I was able to use my health benefits and I got back pay. So those those weeks that were not paid because I was salary, they still paid me those. So my check was a full check even though I was not working because I was not allowed to work. Then again, I did work for the federal government.
Starting point is 00:59:12 So that could be different. I think so. I feel like that is the difference. I feel like that is the difference. Okay, and we also have two more headlines and we'll wrap this thing up. Florida, the nursing homes are trying to have the governor give them
Starting point is 00:59:32 a protection from lawsuits, which I think I feel like that they should be. What do you mean? What do you mean? Why are they sued for? If a nursing home had coronavirus. I'm suing your ass. I'm suing your ass and I better see.
Starting point is 00:59:50 That's what's wrong with America right there. Old people homes, coronavirus free. That's going to be my new one. You're all going down and I want my name and light around this thing. Absolutely. And when I get old, I expect to have the Penn Suite. Now this little... Think about this.
Starting point is 01:00:12 Florida is also worried about, you know what's coming on? First. Shark week. Oh. Oh, yeah, yeah, shark weekend hurricane season. Both. I think they are, it's a cybo cast. Ha ha ha ha ha ha.
