And now, a Blaze Media podcast. Welcome to it. Yes, chewing the fat. How are you? It's good to see you. You look great. You know, I saw something yesterday that I think you need to know about. Now, obviously, each story that we do on this program you need to know about, but this particular story, did you know?

Out-of-date pancake mix could kill you. I know. I know. So write it down, take it with you. Out-of-date pancake mix could kill you. According to several American Journal forensic medical pathology studies, and who doesn't read all of the American Journal forensic medical pathology posts, that people have made pancakes with out-of-date.

pancake mix and gotten sick and even lost their lives. So check the date on your pancake mixes. And I'll move on, but I forgot to give credit to, you know, I gave credit to the American Journal of Forensic Medical Pathology. I failed to give credit to the annals of allergy, asthma, and immunology that also had reports of people getting sick from out-of-day pancake mixing. So I just wanted to make sure that everybody got there. Wow.

What kind of world that we lived in? I mean, I'm broadcasting from the, you know, from the bunker still. Day. I don't even know. Who's counting anymore? Really? 46. Like I said, who's counting even more?

Is it 46? 47, probably something like that, right? Friday was 43, right? Nope, it's 46. Today's 46. Oof. Okay. Like, for all of you not counting at home, all you have to do is scroll to the bottom of the podcast.

And that is the first line that greets you, day 46 inside CQB. And the rest of the show happens. Like I said, who's counting? Oh, I am counting. There's that. We'll see. I mean, Governor Abbott, here in. Texas is supposed to.

It's being reported that he's got his big announcement later today that may open up some more of Texas. We'll see some of the power hungry judges like Clay Jenkins in Dallas County. I can't wait for that fight. That's going to be the battle royale. And I'm sorry. The governor wins that. Okay. I was thinking about that.

I was as I was reading the story today because that was one of the stories that that came up on my feed was about Governor Abbott, you know, doing a thing today. But if we really say about small government and we really believe about small government, we listen to Jenkins. We don't listen to the governor. Well, and Abbott may actually do that. And in his interview that he did with Glenn last week, he made it seem like that. Yes. Like he leaves it to them. Yes.

And that's one thing that I did not like about that interview. I know. Because it felt that the inner big government inside me, when I'm like, hell no, bro, you're the governor. We elected you. You put your foot down. Well, hold on.

Can he put his foot down? Because I know he's in a wheelchair. Can he still put his foot down? He put his hand down. Okay. Put your wheels down. Put his hands down. Lock him in and be like,

judge, I'm the governor. I'm the one who lives in the capital. You lives in Dallas, back off. Keep thinking. Now you've got, all I can think about is him. Does he ever say that? I'm going to put my foot now.

I don't think he can say that. That's not funny yet. No, don't stop joking about that. No, but seriously, no, do you think he says that? I don't think he says that. He might, sure. I think that's a phrase, right? Yes, but can you use the phrase if you can't use your feet?

He used to be able to use them. Oh, he used to? Oh, okay. Okay, then, yeah, that he could use it. He was an incident. Oh, okay, then yeah, he could use it. I thought he was just born that way, you know, like... Oh, no, he was actually...

If I remember the story right, he was out jogging and a tree fell on him. If I remember that story, I mean, it was... A fun story. Nobody wants that to have... In fact, we have to find out now. We have to find out.

I'm pretty sure that's what happened. This plays some music or something. We've got to find out about Greg Abbott. You're right. We're back. Thank you for being on hold. We appreciate it. You need any special on hold announcement for this.

No, no, no. You're on July 14, 1984. At the age of 26, Abbott was paralyzed from the waist below the waist. When an oak tree fell on him while he was jogging following a storm. Seriously, he told this story on the air when we first met him the first time he came the studios. That's why it stuck in my head. And I don't know,

you know, I know there were probably lawsuits and he probably, you know, won some money and all that kind of stuff. Is that how he became governor? He sued the state. It was like, my demand is not money. I just want to govern the state. It only took 20-some years.

Well, that is. Yeah, we'll let you be governor, but not right now. That is the justice system right now. Talk about speedy trial. Yeah. But anyway, So he gets to say he gets to say, yeah, because he walked. All that for he gets to say.

He walked 26 years of his life. But he did seem like he's going to leave it to the, he's going to say, hey, open it up. But if the local municipalities want to do it slower, that's fine. Yeah. Which is the problem. Which is why Dallas County and Harris County need to vote for a new judge. Oh, my gosh. Because the tyrannical judge Jenkins, it is.

power hungry to the max. And I'm going to visit just because I can that salon. I'm just going to talk about her as a matter of fact. It's not even for guys. It's for girls. But I'm going to visit that lady because how dare you? Leave her alone. Leave her alone.

She was great. I heard her interview this morning and she was, you know, she's great. Look, she hasn't paid. She said that she had not paid her mortgage on her house. she paid the mortgage on the business. And she also talked about how they are doing it. You know, if you, unless you're getting something done right now, you have to wait outside. Yes.

Everybody, everybody is, you know, wearing masks and even you have to wear a mask to get the work done. I mean, it's ridiculous. When you have the Laredo Police Department in Texas, yes, another story from Texas. when they caught two women and arrested them in an undercover sting operation. Unbelievable. As part of their COVID-19 task force enforcement detail, charged with violation of emergency management plan

because they were offering beauty services from their home. The undercover sting operation, operation, they agreed to do eyelash service and nail service to an undercover police officer. And they were arrested for that. That is agonizing. And we talked about the black market haircuts and the black market manicures and pedicures. That's what's happening. Only problem is these these ladies weren't coming to your home right they were having you come to them

It's ridiculous every time you say this thing the sting happened this SWAT theme song comes in to my head Is this how they were prepared to about to bust those ladies This show's up. Why are you waiting? I fucking hated this show Swarm, swarm, hair product, hair product. So are we going to visit the salon? Me and you? You want to go? I do, Rack.

I really want to go. I saw a story and I was like, where's that at? How far do you have to go? I don't necessarily want to have to wait, though. Oh, no, I don't want to wait. Walkups are welcome. She said walkups are welcome, but I just don't want to show up and have to wait. Well, you know, you can also, is she taking appointments?

Can I call? Okay, okay. Okay, okay, okay. Okay, so I'll make an appointment for you and me. And what? Go ahead. You let me know how it goes. No, no, no.

Like, we mean you're going to go. We're going to support her. You need a haircut. You look like you need a haircut. I did a haircut. I did a manny. And you need, you need some color in there, too. You're starting to.

I know. You roots are for sure. I know. You roots are showing. I just need you to, you know, fix it. I know. Okay. I got it.

But things are. I'm still in lockdown. Oh, are you? Okay. Day, how was it? 46. Day 46, dude. So, I mean, they're closing.

Look, also stores that they, a couple stores, Tuesday morning stores opened up and said, we're open for business. And then, you know, the, the Fort Worth enforcement team showed up and said, no, you're closed. Do, do, do, do, de, de, I mean, it's just ridiculous. And by the way. Fisher, I don't know if you said this already, but no one supports the police department more than this show. We talked about four different stories of police departments doing their job and keeping us safe, you know, because their vehicles say serving protect. And they look, if you are, if you're a police officer in Laredo, Texas, what else have you got to do?

Nothing. I mean, if I'm a police officer in Laredo, Texas, and I'm asked. Hey, would you like to become part of the COVID-19 task force enforcement detail? Absolutely. You have to. Yes. That looks so good for your application. Your resume, you know, when you leave the police force, sir, what was your highest accomplishment

while you won the police force? I belong to the COVID-19 task force. Enforcement detail. And what did you do? We busted those. We set up undercover. thing operations. Okay.

Okay. So for drugs, the cartel, the terrorism? Yeah, no, well, that's part of what we did. But we kicked it off with doing an undercover sting operation on a lady that wanted to give a nail job. Oh, so she was using sex slave girls from like child traffic girls? Yeah, no, she was doing it herself. What she was doing is she had an app set up and people were making appointments to come to her house and get their nails done. Oh, getting her nails done.

Okay. So it was like vice, you know, there was like some madam kind of thing. There was like pornography being shot. Yeah, no, they were just coming to her house to get their nails done. And then another one. And I'll tell you the second one that we did. And this was really huge. We set up the sting operation.

Actually, this was during the same sting operation. We set up an appointment and showed up at her house and arrested her because she was going to do an eyelash service. Oh, I. Is that like the Mali, like the new, you know, the new shipment of Mali coming from from Mexico? Yeah. Yeah, you know what? No. No.

This is just an actual, the lady was going to. I said on the app, I really needed my eyelashes done. And she agreed to it. Oh, was she using like animal hair that is illegal to you, like exotic, like Joe exotic hair kind of like that? You know, a lot of people think that, but no. No? No, yeah. No, this was just a strict violation of the.

emergency management plan. So we had to take her down. And that is your proudest moment while you were in the force of Laredo, Texas. And look, there's not a police department in America that would turn you down for a job and a raise

if you were part of the COVID-19 task force enforcement detail. So again, no one supports the police. I feel like after you get the COVID-19 task force enforcement. I feel like, the next step for you is what,

Secret Service, Marshall, you're protecting the president. You protect America. That's actually probably, you probably become part of Homeland Security. Homeland Security, yeah, you're part of Homeland Security.

You're part of Homeland Security. You have your plaques up on the wall. Ooh, how'd you get started? Yeah, the COVID-19 Task Force Enforcement detail. I moved right into the Homeland Security. Do you see that, remember the episode from Homeland on Showtime? Like the season two, episode 19, that's what I did, but for COVID-19.

Absolutely ridiculous. And then we have people. Now, I will say this. I love this. And I'm mad that the guy got arrested and shut down. And this was not in the United States. This was in Spain. So, I mean, while I support the police officers here in the United States of America,

I question maybe some of the law enforcement in other countries. Whoa. Whoa. Hold on. Hold on. So you're telling me that your support for the police departments are only in the continental of the United States? In the United States of America.

I mean, there's it could not just be the continental. Okay. I mean, if you're part of the United States of America, I support you. So this fame like Hawaii. Uh-huh, in Puerto Rico. Hawaii.

And Puerto Rico. Hawaii. And Guam, Puerto Rico. So the, and I love the guy that got arrested. He's my new hero. I think because in Spain

you can take your pets out for a brief walk. They're in lockdown. They're not allowed to walk around or jog around but pet owners can take their animals for a brief stroll. Right? I mean they let the animals out.

Makes sense. Do their thing. Do their thing and then back into your apartment or your home. This guy was arrested for walking his pet fish. now I'm a fan of this guy he wanted to get out of his house and go for a walk and you could take your pets

your animals for a walk and apparently the police frown upon walking your fish I want to say that could be used as discrimination how do you arrest the man maybe the fish wanted to walk how you thought about that? This is spain so you don't know you don't know

do you have the story of the gentleman that bought a truck full of onions in order to leave the quarantine area. They were not allowed to leave. So what he did was he bought a bunch of onions and passed himself as an onion seller. Sure. And left the lockdown. And he got in trouble. I'm like, why is he in trouble?

Oh, because he violated quarantine and he left. But he bought the onions. and he bought the onions under the assumption yeah that he wasn't going to resell them right he only bought them to leave the quarantine area but maybe that's not true I mean if he's got a truckload of onions

and somebody came up and said hey what am I smelling out of that truck onions yeah I'll take some all right yeah so here it is Indian man buys 28 tons of onions drives you can get onions at a cheap price in today's world now. Absolutely. And then he drives 869 miles disguised as an onion seller. Disguised as an onion seller. You know, that's what I'm going to be this year for Halloween. I'm going to be an

onion seller. And instead of trick-or-treating, I'm just going to give onions to every single household that I leave. He's disguised as an onion seller. Shut up. Stop it. Is Clay Jenkins involved in this? He has to be. By the way, he worked at an airport, and he loaded the truck with 28 tons of onion, traveled about 1,400 kilometers, or whatever that is, from Mumbai. So, no, Mumbai to his home in northern India.

And he just did not want to be stuck. He doesn't live. But did he, did he buy the onions, or did he just take them? No, no, he bought the onions. Yeah. He buys 28 tons of onions. Okay. Now, I want to say this.

This man is a thinker outside the box. Because if I'm stuck at Mumbai's airport because that's where I work and I leave and I live 869 miles away, I'm going to find a way. That's some travel to work every day. And that was my second question. I was doing some travel. Why are you traveling 860? He needs a job, right? He needs a job.

He probably works there and goes home once a month. Let's say he goes home once a month or he takes, you know, he goes to the airport. He works for three weeks. He gets three or four days off then when he goes back home. Stuff like, I mean, I could see that happen. It happens here, right? Many people do that all the time. Oh, wow.

This is pretty cool. So he rented the truck, hire a driver and disguise himself. And this is his quote. himself. This is his quote. To dressed up as an onion? Maybe. Maybe.

We don't know. You know what? I mean, was he dressed up as a Spanish onion? That's what got him caught. That's what got him caught. The Indian guy was dressed as a Spanish onion that bastard. He says,

I was talking Mumbai, given the other number of cases. Being prone to city, I was so scared. And I had no option to return home. We bought the onions from a vegetable market near Mumbai. and using the excuse of produce delivery, we cross three states to finally reach home on Friday after traveling for three days. For him, I mean, was he, and he wasn't, he's going to sell the onions, he got to sell them, right?

Yeah, you have to sell them. You have to get that money back. He's going to let him rot in the back of the truck. And the police put him on a two-week quarantine. And so far, he has not shown any symptom of coronavirus. We are in a sad state of affairs worldwide. Worldwide, we're in a sad state of affairs. Now, I will say, things are starting to get back to, you know, hey, come and visit us.

I know that, you know, the cruise lines are finally, I think we are safe on the globe, that there's no cruise ships out there, but I could be wrong anymore. I think they've all docked. But Sicily is now offering a deal. for you to come to Sicily. They're paying half price for your flights. They're paying half of your flight price. They're going to pay for one of every three hotel nights.

They're going to give you tickets to the museums and the archaeological sites. Just come to Sicily. Are you going to Sicily for that kind of a deal? Yes. Are you going there tomorrow? Yes. Nice knowing you. All right.

I need a drink of Coca-Cola Zero. Yes, I still have Coca-Cola Zero. Yes, I do. Man, I do not want that to go away. I do not want shortages of that to happen. Remember, two, to subscribe, please, to chewing the fat. If you're listening to this right now,

And we have a few listening and you're a subscriber, you are in a, a, um, a, um, a, um, you are a, um, a, um, chewing the fat

influencer but this person now is happy to be an influencer but wants us to adopt his sport as the official chewing the fat sport now he invented a sport he invented a sport

and I went and watched his sport and I think it could be worthy of an official chewing the fat sport now right now though during the lockdown, his business is shut down.

So the official sport, I guess it could be our official sport, but you can't play it. I guess you could make it at home. See, that's the thing with the official chewing the fat sport. It is kind of a million dollar idea, but I don't know how you make one at home to play it at home. We have to figure that out. Now, that's something we could do.

I'm hesitant to. tell you what it is until I figure out if we can make an at-home version because that's the million-dollar idea. Let me get back to the email. Brian, I'm going to email you. We have to figure out how to do this because if we're going to make it the official chewing the fat sport, we've got to make an at-home version. We've got to start selling that. So get on that. All right? And I want to cut because I've got some ideas on how to make that happen. And you can play the real thing at your establishment or the, you know,

give you the at-home version to take with you after you're done. Did you watch Afterlife this weekend? Again, Ricky Jervais and his, you know, afterlife season two was really good. I mean, the guy pisses me off. It's only six episodes like the first season. It just goes by so fast, but it's so good. And if you have an opportunity to watch it on Netflix,

watch it it's well worth it and you saw I can't believe I was I was so amazed that the opening scene this is I'm going to give you a spoiler just for the opening scene because I'm the only wasn't it was only I mean a few days ago last week my daughter came in and was doing something with recording something and she said sing a song go

and I immediately started singing top of the world by the carpenters and she was obviously my daughter is 12 years old she doesn't know about the carpenters she's heard me sing it before

so that's how she knows about them but the opening scene of afterlife is the carpenter's top of the world I was been singing it all weekend long and if you follow my wife Frame Life photography or my Instagram

Conjeefisher Radio, you saw that she filmed me going around the house singing it this weekend. And you could go and give a listen. It's, I can't get, I haven't been able to get out of my head. I love it. But it's fantastic. And I was reminded, and I want to thank everyone who reminded me on social media that that wasn't the only one. That wasn't the only show that, uh, uh, uh, had

top of the world in it and it was a montage of scenes back in 2012 the movie dark shadows

had a whole montage with the carpenter's top of the world on it and I have that sent to me by about 100,000 people I know there's only

30 or 40,000 people follow me on Twitter so it's almost I mean it is possible but almost impossible for 100,000 people to send me that clip, but I did get that clip. So thank you. I appreciate it very much. And it was an exciting weekend with myself and the carpenters. So there's that. Also, good news.

We talked about people breaking the enforcement rules during this time of our need in lockdown. the Chippendales and I used to be a long time ago I was a part of them I've kind of let myself go so I'm not really Chippendale worthy right now they are offering free virtual parties

for health care workers so if you're a health care worker and I don't know maybe if we just ask them and say hey I'm a health care worker can you give me a few Can you give me a free, you know, little dance party? I was going to say I identify as a health care worker.

I'm in the front of the lines from behind the lines. And I need some motivations. I need a guy. The front lines from behind the line. That's exactly what we are. And we identify as health care workers. So they're giving you the free mail review party, either on Zoom, house party, FaceTime, or any other video platform.

form they're going to do that for you so thank you chippendales for uh making life just a little bit better so how do i contact them well go to chippendales wow are you dumb oh that's it i mean i thought it was like a 900 number that i could call oh it's just go to chippendales okay and i don't know why you would think it was so difficult do i have to say go to chippendales dot com. www. www. chippendales.com.

Do you want me spelled chippendales for you? Yes, please. S.E. All right, let's do a little coronavirus. You know, we have to do a little coronavirus update daily right now. Worldwide, we have 3 million

25,737 total cases with 209,0002 total deaths at the time of this recording. At the time of this recording, the United States of America has 993,852 total cases, with 56,099 total deaths. So, wow, today will be the day, right? No matter what hell or high water, today is the day sometime, probably. about, I don't know, prime time news, five, six o'clock in the afternoon.

By the time you, some of you hear this podcast, if you're listening after, I'm calling it right now, 6 p.m. Central, 7 p.m. Now, 6 p.m. Eastern, 5 p.m. Central. America hits the million mark on total cases of COVID-19. Okay. I mean, we heard reports that we're starting to try to open back up. Good. I mean, China has said, if you believe China, that they have not had any new cases in Wuhan. Okay. Good news for them. TSA, checkpoint travel numbers. Looks like we're picking up the pace a little bit. Yesterday, we had 128,8,875 people through the TSA.

CSA checkpoints, which was, and it was a pretty big day a year ago, too, with a two and a half million, over two and a half million. So, but it's picked up now. The last four days have been over 100,000, 111, 123, 114, 128. So, Chris, I want to talk to you about your trip. I know you traveled through two different airports going and coming. Yeah. And you're traveled to from Texas to Florida, Florida to Texas. We'll do that on the podcast.

For those of you listening on Blaze Radio Network right now, know that this is what you get when you don't subscribe. All right. Now, if you subscribe to chewing the fat, you're going to get more. You're welcome. But you have to be a subscriber so you listen to the full podcast. What you hear on Blaze Radio Network isn't the full podcast. What? I know. I know. But so you left on what day? I left on Friday, which was the 23rd. I left on Thursday. Sorry, I left on Thursday. Sorry, I left on Thursday.

Right. Okay, which was the 23rd. That's what I thought. The 23rd was in my head. So that day is the day that started 111,627 people through the TSA checkpoint. Yeah, we talked about that. So, and then it went to 123,000. uh, Seth, Sunday went down a little bit. I mean, uh, Saturday went down a little bit to 114,000 and then Sunday went back up to 128,000.

So the numbers are starting to pick up a little. Yeah. And then tomorrow, they are creeping up. Tomorrow we'll be able to find out what happened today on the TSA. Correct. Yeah, that's how it works.

Yeah. Which is, it's very interesting. It's, it's eye opening. And like we talked about a couple of weeks. ago, I would love to get the numbers of people traveling post 9-11. Yeah, we've got to go back.

You'd think a producer of the show would do that. Yeah. It's just me. That's just me. We talked about that. Oh, yeah, this is a coronavirus update. At one point, 90% of the U.S. population was under mandatory lockdown orders. 90%.

So you tell me that 10%? Was that the hot governor? I guess we have to go. I mean, we do. No way South Dakota is 10% of the U.S. So, no. I mean, that's impossible. There's like two people that live there.

That's why they didn't lock it down. It's like Bill and Mary have decided they're not going to be locked down. Okay, well, we're not locking down the state then. So Georgia, Oklahoma, Alaska, South Carolina have already allowed some, so is to Texas now. This is an old story. I thought the states that it had eight states Arkansas, Iowa, Nebraska, North Dakota, Oklahoma, South Dakota, Utah, Wyoming. Okay, yeah, this is the list I was looking for. Arkansas, Iowa, Nebraska, North Dakota, Oklahoma, South Dakota, Utah, and Wyoming never issued mandatory orders to stay at home.

Okay. But, but. Uh-oh. But. Uh-oh. there were a lot of stories from local municipalities from those states that did it right so the states didn't do it but the local government from Utah and Oklahoma that that were yeah arresting people and charging people and maybe not uh you know the one was in Colorado right that was the guy he wasn't arrested he was just detained detain yeah but but that Colorado obviously had the man to from the state, but these states did do it as a state. And I know this is too soon for us to know the answer to this, but have you seen the tweet

running around on Twitter, of course, about how Tennessee wants their business to open and the guidelines they have to follow? Have you read that? Well, yeah, but I'm not sure. I mean, all the guidelines are pretty much have been. pretty much the same. Because I don't like, so for example, this is for a restaurant. This is if Jeff Fisher Fire Steakhouse wants to open tomorrow in Tennessee, you have to

follow these rules. Tables should be at least six feet apart. Right. That's normal across the country so far. Limit tables to no more than six guests per table. Yep. Many outdoor, indoor waiting area, I mean, Mark, outdoor indoor area for people. people can practice safe social distancing.

For example, a tech system to tell the guests that they're available, intercom, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. Bar areas should remain close. Yeah. Live music. These guidelines are pretty much the same across the country. Live music should not be permitted. Why? Well, because, Chris, the bands will have to be on stage.

that it would have to be stand closer than six feet probably the stages are not that big and to what happens when you hear music you want to dance and you want to get inside the social distancing rules and this is the one that i don't like uh temperature checks for every customer customers with above a hundred and point four degree Fahrenheit should not be permitted on the premise and we're leaving that up to the restaurants yes i haven't seen I have not seen that in a lot of those stories. And there's the minimum questions you have to ask customers as they come in. Oh, shut up.

Question number one. Have you traveled outside of the country? Have you traveled outside of the county? Is it possible that someone has breathed in the air that you've breathed that has COVID-19? Then get out. Close. Close. Question number one.

Have you been in contact with a confirmed case of COVID-19? Are you experiencing cough, shortness of breath, or sore throat? No one would lie about that. What happens if I say no? I go in, I sit down. Uh-huh. And then I sit down at the table. And I order my dinner because Susie comes up and says,

Okay, I'm ready to take your order now. I can't as I'm six feet away. What do you guys need? That's why you have to order your food to Susie out loud, loud. okay it's a good thing you make sure that if you want it something that most people don't like everybody knows about it and then as i'm waiting for my water to show up from the hose that has to be sprayed from six feet away the way stewardess comes up and tries to shoot hose water in your glasses because you can't come up to the table and i cough what happens so i'm sitting there

at the table waiting for my pork chops, which don't exist anymore. You can't order pork because the meat, pork plants are all shut down. So I'm waiting for my fake burger because the beef. Is that what happens? I mean, I'm waiting for my order and she's going to wait on another table. And I cough. They just shoot you.

Online Marketplace Etsy, trading near all-time highs. Sellers are trying to pivot selling their crafts, quilts and face masks. Good for them. I know. And by the way, speaking of Peloton,

Peloton is no longer streaming new classes because the studios that they record these classes, New York City, and production has been shut down. So no new classes have been streamed on the Peloton universe. So if you stuck with Jack, you know, doing that 10... That's fine.

It was weird, man. It was, no one was there.

Can I quote you on that? Yes, you can quote you. And by the way, if you go to Terminal E, well, I went to Terminal A. Check out the homeless situation. I did not find any homeless people, so I don't know where they're at. So I don't know if they got kicked out. But you went during the daytime? I went during the daytime, yes.

Okay. I went. It was around 2 to 3 o'clock. That's where I went. So they should have been there because it's lunchtime slash nap time. It's been nice out though. So it's been really nice, yes. So there was no homeless. So then I got in the stupid little train because A terminal was not my terminal. So. So you got lucky that letting you out there. Oh, absolutely. So I got in the little, you know, a little train that, you know, goes, but I went to the trap. Yeah. Thank you.

And this is what I saw Fisher One working TSA line All the other ones are shut down completely In the entire E terminal E terminal has I counted it because I went up and down Four checkpoints One

No, two normal And the other two of TSA prechecked All the TSA prechecked are completely close So there's no TSA precheck Glad you guys spent all that money on that precheck That's what I thought I said, well, this is, I'm going to definitely ask for a refund. So what happens is when you go to the regular line, they check your tick and it says TSA precheck and they yell,

TSA precheck, two. Okay, sir, that means that you can keep your shoes on and go to the metal detector, but you still have to remove your large tablets or computer from your, and I was like, so you're telling me, so you tell me that the x-ray machine of, the normal people is different than the x-ray machine in the other TSA pre-checked? Because over there, they just don't, they say, they tell me, leave everything in the bag, just go. Go through it. Just go, just go. And I send you a picture.

Everybody has face masks, but no gloves. Right, it's really weird. There was no gloves. Really weird. And Fisher, they demand to see your face. It's not like, sir, you know, can you put your masks out? By law, I'm required to tell you to please remove your mask. And then once I look at your face, please put your mask back on.

That may, I mean, that I'm okay with, I think. If they're making you travel with masks, I mean, they got to know what you look like, right? They have to. Then I get to the. Unless, of course, it's a religious artifact. And then you have to keep it on. That's my, I just put a cross on it. That's my religious one you get.

Yes. Then I get to the gate. And Jeffrey, what was the story we talked about? They're changing the order that they, what, make people board the planes? Yeah, board the planes. Yeah.

Back to front. Nope. Nope. No, but I mean, what they're doing is so people don't have to pass by each other. Nope. They're bringing the people into the back of the plane to the front.

And it's more for your health safety than anything else. Yeah. That sounds good on paper, but when they say zone one, I was like, okay, zone one, we're zone two. So that means, wait, wait, I'm zone two. It should be zone four, three, two, one. Right. Zone two? I'm like, okay, maybe, you know.

So I'm sitting down. They've changed the numbers. They changed the zone numbers. They changed the zoning numbers. And then I'm sitting down. I'm like, oh, man, the plane is pretty empty. Zone three? Wait.

There's people passing me. That's why they did it from back to front. They should not be a zone three because I'm on seat number two. I'm on seat number two. So unless you really broke down the sections. Unless you're running late, right? If you do back to front and then the last person who was in zone four showed up late, he or she has to pass by everybody

and it would be just a coincidence if the late person No wonder you're late Why are we even letting you on the plane Take it easy So I'm sitting there I'm like okay fine Zone 3

Now I'm asking on zone 1 through 4 For Zone 4 You can board the plane What is going on? What is going on? Okay, so that was the boarding. So maybe it was just the airline. It wasn't the whole industry.

I think it's per airline. Yeah, I think it was that story. Originally, I think was Delta. Delta. So maybe, I think so. If I remember right, it was Delta. Yeah. So maybe, I mean, so all airlines, like you fly, you fly, Flintstone Air.

Yeah, El Chippo. Like I said, Flintstone Air. Oh, cheapo. And, you know, so they've got the pterodactyl off front pulling it. And you need everybody's feet moving at the same time to get it to take off. And go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go. All right, up, up, up. Flop, flap, flop, flop.

So Flintstone Air boards differently. That's amazing. That's amazing. That's too bad. Fisher, this is, you would have loved this. So, you know, the little stupid little dance that they do in the front, you know, sure you had a buckle like that. Their exits are at the back,

in the middle, they had to update that little spiel. Oh, of course. Because now you have masks. So when the cabin loses pressure, you've got to take the mask off to put the oxygen take on.

Yep. And now that's the new thing that they have to say that some of you are wearing PPE, so please make sure you remove your PPE and then put your mask on. I'm like, wow. Talk about change, bro.

So we get to... I'm not wearing a PPE. I can go to the bathroom on my own. What are you talking about? And then we'll get to 30,000 feet. And the guy goes, due to COVID-19, we're not doing cart service.

Please enjoy the flight. Wait, what? Due to COVID-19, I'm freaking thirsty behind my PPE. Due to COVID-19, cart service is being canceled. What if I have a straw? I can put a straw like up underneath my PPE.

Yeah, but they have to, you know, take the card out. And then if, you know, that zone four person that came in last, you know, cough us, cough us on the cart and then passes back. Joe, and C, 26A, we're not serving you. 26A, we're not serving you. So we land in Orlando, and this is when I got piss because Orlando Orlando Airport shut down the entire B terminal. Okay.

Which is why. That's where Flintstone Air usually docks. That's where they dock. And that is completely shut down from taxi service, bus service, pickup service, But there's still landing planes there? You can land there, but you have to make sure that you tell people that are picking you up, you have to go to a terminal and walk to a terminal because a terminal... They're making you walk to the terminal?

You have to go to the airport? There's no golf carts or anything? No, there's no golf carts. It's not that big either. It's just instead of like when you leave B terminal, you go either left. Yeah, I was told that at Newark International once too. It's just the next terminal over. Okay, I'll just walk.

Five hours later. But here's the part that upset me is that when I go to the B terminal to get my rental from Hearst, I'm walking up. You know, I'm a gold member. So my thing is just get in the car and go. That was not there. But I just go up there and then I'm looking. I'm looking like, it says due to COVID-19, we closed down everything at B terminal. please walk to a terminal to get your vehicle.

So they shut everything down. Fisher, it looked like an abandoned airport. The airline should provide or the airport. If they're shutting that down like that, should provide some sort of transportation. There's nobody there. No, but. There is no employees there.

There's no people. Remember the- Somebody is running the airport. What are those people called? someone is running the airport. What other people call it with the golf carts and they push the old people? Yeah.

They're not there. There's no orderly. The actual gay people are pushing people. The airport is only running on, from what I saw, it's only running on maintenance people. Juan and Juanita and Maria are the only one working. So there's no porters.

No. Nobody is doing, I mean, I mean, there's the, uh, no, no, I'm not going to tell that joke. There's no porous. See, I even edited myself on shooting the fat. That's sad. That is sad. That's sad.

I'm mad at myself. I apologize. It's okay. I apologize. You know why I couldn't do the joke? I just, you know, I got, I'm feeling a little tickle of my throat. Good thing I'm not over there. Good thing.

I'm sorry. There's no, there's no porters, nothing. Nothing. Nothing. But that's what I mean, the airport. Someone is working at the airport. by the way. So if they're going to shut down the terminal.

Okay, so maybe you have Bill, the Porter. You racist. Bill the Porter. So you tell me that only white people can be the orderly? Absolutely. And why you... As a matter of fact, at most airports, there's not a white person to be seen in the Porter industry.

But let's just be clear. Okay, so if there's someone should be able to drive the golf cart to get you to terminal B. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. And there sounds like three or four golf cards taking people. Terminals closed were taking you up there.

Fisher, I'd send you a picture of my plane. My plane had maybe, maybe 15 people. So you have two golf parts. And the thing that I don't understand either is that. TSA, bro. The TSA at MCO, which is Orlando, got a brand new TSA area. Fisher, I'm talking about like brand new.

It looks like a hospital wing. Orlando wasn't part of the TSA people. Yes, oh, yes. Oh, yes. Orlando was a private airport. Orlando, not international, but Orlando, the little airport, that is private. That's not TSA. Not international.

But international is TSA all the way. Okay. And I feel so bad for that money that was wasted on that brand spanking new TSA. Like Tudor, for example, we board it today. This is why they're not letting. We've got to save somebody. No porters. Oh, yeah.

Oh, yeah. And by the way, the wait time for boarding, going to TSA, you know, they have the little board that says how much a wait time is, zero to five. It's been zero to five for the last 50 days. And it is sad because Florida. Florida has a curfew, which is very interesting that I've not seen this. Yes. Two more things.

That's not the state or the cities? According to the automatic neon signs, there's a curfew in Florida from 10 to 6. I didn't know. I didn't know that. I thought that was the cities. I didn't know that. A lot of cities had it. I didn't necessarily know that that was the state.

Fisher, we forgot. about these people and I'm so upset we forgot about these people. The toll workers are not working in Florida. It's everything pay my mail like in Texas. Well, I mean, but we've done that here for, yeah. Yes. Those people are lucky to actually have a job. That job is, I'm surprised, still exists.

Me too, but if you, if you, Florida runs on toll roads. Well, toll workers are the, they all realized, well, that's easy money. Yes. So it was very interesting to see that all these toll rows has the big neon signs saying, due to COVID-19, just keep on driving. We'll bill you via the mail. It was very weird to go to another state coming from this state. That state looks like COVID-19.

Texas does not look COVID-19. Texas looks normal next to Florida. Wow. Yes. Did you go out anywhere? I did. I went all the way to Jacksonville. Daytona Beach area and San Agostin area and Fisher.

Texas is normal next to Florida. It looks like business as usual in Texas. Yeah, there were plenty of times when, you know, I mean, I haven't gone out very much. And I have, you know, I've been pretty good. Oh, who's a good boy? Who's a good boy listening to Just Jenkins?

I know. I know. I don't want to get sick. bro. Oh, you don't want to get sick? Oh, you don't want to get, or you don't want to get arrested by Josh Jenkins over there. Well, Judge Jenkins can bite me.

Oh, really? Really? Okay. I'm going to call the office. See if we can get him on the show. Love it. I would love to talk to him on the show. Because there's no way he talks to us.

Oh, no, he's not talking. I've been trying. No. emailing his stupid people. There's no way he talks to us. And every time they, every time they email me, and ask me for an address, I give him the studio's address.

Because if I give them, if I give them my address, they're like, oh, you know, you're not a, you don't live in the Dallas County. Right, right. So I learned that one the first time because the first thing that's for address, I give him this one. They're like, oh, you need to call your judge. I'm like, oh, crap, you're right. No, I know. That's not what we're talking about.

Thank you. I had to give him the studio address. Diculous. So then you, flying back was the same thing? Flying back was the same team, but the plane was much fuller. this time the plane was top it was full to the rim with the exception of the middle seat and yeah it was full wow and the flight people flight attendants fly people said a couple of times uh row 15b get back in your seat that happened a lot and they were singling people out it was 15 b back in your seat where were

back in your seat because they were violating the protocol of leaving the middle seat because no one can sit in the middle seat because you have to have that right so people were moving but if i'm traveling with someone you cannot be my wife or whatever i could you have to have that buffer seat per regulation and that guy was per regulation that's not see that's clay jenkins all over again shut up so the guy man they were boop boop boop boop boop oh and Okay, we can talk about my tweet. We can talk about my tweet. Did you see the tweet of the partition of my Uber driver?

I did. Okay. I did it as a joke because it's a new normal and I've been tweeting with the face. And it was funny, right? And the tweet is, you know, why does my Uber look like a NYC taxi? This new normal sucks. I was not complaining. I was just pointing something funny.

Uber responds back with We absolutely want to take a closer look We are unable to review an ongoing trip Once the trip is complete Please send us your phone number via DM And we'll help you right away So while we were recording this Fisher Me and you were talking about it

Because I don't want to get the guy in trouble I know why he's doing it And he's obviously doing it because he needs the money So I didn't do it to get him in trouble But It really doesn't I mean does it matter No I don't care

It was just a joke. It was a joke. It was funny. Yes. So I gave him a phone number and Uber replies back with, we're here to help. Please send us additional information about your concern so we can further assist you. This is what me and you had the conversation saying, is that legal and is that something that, you know, Uber supports? So I wrote, it's weird to sit in a car with a partition.

Is that allowed? It did not feel like an Uber drive anymore. it felt more like a taxi cab. Yeah. I just, and I was like, is that something that, you know,

you guys do? And they replied back. Thanks for keeping in touch. We've given you a $3 credit for your future Uber ride. Drivers who partner with Uber agreed to maintain a high standard

of service professional service. We believe that this includes respect and politeness so as riders. Moreover, we send this directly email. Oh, this doesn't say anything. They just gave me $3 credit for me not compas.

You responded to them. Yeah. But I don't know. The only issue I had is that Uber is supposed to be the relaxed environment. I'm not stuck behind a partition like a taxi cab. And he felt like I was in a taxi cab. That was the only issue of had. This is the new normal, right?

I know. And I'm tired. They've already canceled the share rides, right? I mean, New York's, the big cities have the share rides, haven't I used, do whatever they call it. pool ride, yeah. Yeah, the share right. Like I said, whatever they call it.

Like everybody goes to the pool. Yeah, yeah, the share ride. And whatever. But I wasn't complaining. I was just figuring out because it felt really weird and Fisher, I don't like it. How do you feel about getting the guy fired? I didn't get the guy fired. I did not get the guy fired.

He did. He emailed me. He just got fired. You wanted to thank you for firing him. and by the way fired out Uber he's trying now to go to work for Lyft he doesn't know if Lits can let him in thanks to you

and by the way Fisher this whole wearing mask and traveling with mask and seeing other people with mask is weird it is weird it is not America I know that's our new that's our new normal right and I do not like it

I don't either I do not plus we have there's a lot of people I mean, how are you going to, there's a lot of people that can't wear them, you know, that, you know, have asthma. Yeah. Have breathing issues that can't wear them. So are they going to, are you going to get them their little yellow star on their shirt? Well, you can't, you can't come in the store without a mask.

I can't wear the mask. So, you know, if you can't wear a mask, you can't come in the store without a mask. mask. It's okay. I can't breathe with the mask on my face. Next, we have, we have an opening. You go ahead. Come in. I mean, we have some stores holding people in line because they've, letting so many people into their stores. You have to stand six feet apart outside of their stores. We have other stores that aren't doing any of it. You just go in, do your shopping and get out and be American and trust that, you know, you're not going to get into my space and I'm

not going to get into your space. We're going to shop and we're going to get out of here. It's really frustrating. Truly frustrating. Can I quote you on that? Yes. Yes, you can. And we have the Bank of America CEO predicting, ah, the economy, we'll be fine. We're going to get back to normal late next year. Don't worry about it. Dude, speaking of that, did you see what Disney just said two days ago? Oh yeah, they're not going to open

until next year. Oh my gosh. They're not going to open until next year, or at least that's what's being reported. That's what's being reported on the boardrooms that they're talking about. And my aunt works for Disney, and I asked her, she said, Chris, I haven't been on work ever since it started. Oh, yeah.

And I'll say, she'll be back January 1. don't you worry about and I asked have you heard of saying well you know they're keeping you know they're saying late summer but and I was like she works at Magic Kingdom and she works at the it's a small world ride that's her that she's been there for years now so and she works with the carts and she's like they're telling us you know the late summer star you know they're going to start reopening again but behind the scenes the managers saying that What you read is correct. Yep.

They just don't, this is the case. They don't want to be the theme park that had an outbreak or cause the outbreak. Plus, on top of that, okay, so they open back up and they spend the money to open back. And looking at it as a corporation, you and I feel for all the people that work there more than you know. but they spend all this money to open the theme park back up who's going right who's going i mean that's it's good i get that they're going to you know yes they should open okay and people should get their jobs absolutely 100 percent but it costs a lot of money who's going to pay for that yeah and then you don't have the security knowing of i'm not going to

it gets sick. Right. Because That's the whole point. So now, you know, look, if it opens back up good, that's great, but they're talking about I mean, here's an idea. It's a million dollar idea for Disney. You know, they don't have very many of those, so I'm going to help him out.

Are you sure about that? Yeah, no, I don't know what they're doing over there. That's why they brought Eisner, I mean, let's his face quit. Not Eisner, but Eiger. You know, he quit, and then they brought him back. I mean, he didn't first of all, he quit because he didn't know what he was doing. He practically ran the place into the ground.

And now they said, hey, come back. Well, the thing, come back. I mean, obviously, they don't need my ideas. But here's a million-dollar idea for you. All right. So if they're going to stay closed and they want to continue with the subscriptions to the Disney app, right, Disney Plus, what they should do is provide 4th of July firework just for the Disney Plus subscribers. from the Disney parks around the world, 4th of July, fireworks celebration, Disney Plus app only.

You're welcome. I mean, Iger, I know you need help. I mean, I get it. So you're welcome. All right. Call me.
