Starting point is 00:00:00 You're listening to Chewing the Fat on Demand. Welcome to it. Chewing the Fat with yours truly, Jeff Fisher. Thank you so much for joining in today. This weekend, I got a big story talking about a huge Ebola outbreak. Again, the Democratic Republic of Congo. It's the most severe in the country's history, 319 confirmed and probable cases. I mean, here we go again.
Starting point is 00:00:39 Ebola. Remember when we had the big Ebola outbreak all over the world and here at the U.S.? I mean, we, I mean, it was here. I mean, it was in this country and Texas and the wedding lady went to Cleveland and moved around. We didn't know who had Ebola and who didn't. I mean, it was amazing. And, I mean, we still, I still have an actual stuffed strain of Ebola that we hang up on the Christmas tree. We've hung up on the Christmas tree for two or three years.
Starting point is 00:01:09 It's the, you know, the blood strain, the poison of Ebola. It's a stuff thing. And my kids, every Christmas now, this is a, it's become a Christmas song, really, because when we decorate the Christmas tree, we find, oh, you know, and out comes the strain of Ebola to hang up on the Christmas tree. And then we hang it as we're hanging it up on the Christmas tree, we all sing. Deep away from eyes the tree. bleed. Don't lick vomit off the street.
Starting point is 00:01:47 And I know you don't want to die. So slowly back away from that infected guy. Stay an Ebola free. Stay an Ebola free. Don't eat that raw meat and see we'll all be
Starting point is 00:02:09 Ebola free. Man, this brings back so many good memories. Doesn't it? Keep away from those sweaty sheets. Keep away from discharge that secrets. If you want to call me your fear, put down that glass of diarrhea.
Starting point is 00:02:31 Stay an Ebola free. Stay an Ebola free. Merry Christmas. Don't touch others, poop and pee. And we'll be Ebola free. Just wash your hands and you will see we can be Ebola free. From my family to yours. Merry Christmas. All right, another story that bugged me all weekend was the victorious secret story.
Starting point is 00:03:14 All right, I've got one, two, three, four, five, six, six stories. on those Victoria Secrets sitting here in front of me, I can tell you them all on my head. It's unbelievable. Yeah, I was so fascinated with it. Victoria's Secret only hires super skinny models, and that's a problem. To whom?
Starting point is 00:03:37 Victoria's Secret's fashion show even makes models feel insecure. Right. Sure they do. They're nervous. Victoria's Secret announced its list of what is sexy, and it's the worst. Is it? We're nobody's third love.
Starting point is 00:03:55 We're their first love. The architects of the Victoria's Secret fashion show are still banking on bombshells. Uh, yeah. Victoria's Secret doesn't want plus size or trans women walking the runway. Yeah. Victoria's Secret shouldn't dictate what sexy is if transgender models don't fit its fantasy. Okay, here you go. Everyone has different fantasies.
Starting point is 00:04:23 Everyone likes different sexy things. For years now, we've all enjoyed Victoria Secrets as a special little fantasy. Tall, leggy, thinned women. Now, they have had some preggers out there walking down the runway. Remember? And it's a show. Victoria's Secret. That's what they do.
Starting point is 00:04:52 And this is why you should never apologize. The Victoria's Secret guy got in trouble by talking about not wanting trans and transgender and people that are overweight. You know the plus size models. I'm sorry, I've got to be politically correct with them, right? I'm able to, it's okay to call me fat,
Starting point is 00:05:18 but I can't call them fat? No, sorry. Doesn't work that way. Now the one super-sized model, I mean the plus-sized model. What's her name? I should have waited. I should have actually opened the stories now that I'm actually telling you the stories because I don't remember every inch of their names.
Starting point is 00:05:34 But the one supersized model, the one-super-sized model was complaining about the Victoria's Secret guy. Not what he didn't want. He didn't want plus-size didn't want the trannies walking down the runway, and that's what Victoria's secrets. So she's all mad, and she tweets. Then she tweets how mad she is and, you know, how she won't be wearing Victoria Secrets. I'm sure Victoria Secrets is saying, oh, hell. Oh, hell, the supersized won't wear us.
Starting point is 00:06:01 Okay, so then the guy apologizes. All right, he takes the heat, he feels the heat. He realizes, oh, I probably shouldn't have said that. You're right. You know, that was a mistake. I went too far. Here, let me apologize. And what does supersized model tweet?
Starting point is 00:06:16 Yon. Here's what they say, yon. So what difference did it make? It doesn't make any difference. You know what Victoria's Secret is. You know what they do. You know what they present. That's who they are.
Starting point is 00:06:33 If you don't like it, there's plenty of other outlets. Every other modeling outfit has to bow down to supersized now and tranny size now. Project Runway did their supersized year. plus size I got it just leave me alone they did their year and by the way it was just beautiful oh man it was it was one of their best years ever yes it was I mean
Starting point is 00:07:01 and now that Project Runway is on Amazon oh they're gonna be even worse it's gonna be bad but I'll still watch it because I like it and I like and they've ticked me off with an idea that we've had here for a long time and they're using it where you click on an item that you see on the screen and you can buy it
Starting point is 00:07:18 That should have been. Anyway, that's just another side note. So dear supersized models and dear tranny models, start your own supersized secrets. Start your own stores. Start your own fashion line. Do your own, do your own thongs. Do your own supersize on the runway. But when you're upset in Victoria's secrets, what is sexy?
Starting point is 00:07:48 young white and thin that's what's sexy um okay uh guess what everybody has their own little what's sexy to them sometimes it even changes if you don't like to discuss fantasies and different things that people find sexy i could do that for another hour and a half if you'd like no you just You don't want that to happen? Because we'll go from young, white, and thin to something complete. Oh, never mind. But we look at the list from Victoria Secrets, the 2017, hashtag what is sexy list? Bold, powerful, confident.

Don't forget that Monday we always have the extra podcast drop talking walking dead, which I do with Jason Butchral and my son Maximus. We talk specifically Walking Dead. And so you can download that. That drops early Monday and then drops before this one on the page.
Starting point is 00:17:01 And it's just talking Walking Dead. If you don't like Walking Dead, don't listen. I don't know why you don't like Walking Dead, but if you don't, you don't. And if you do, enjoy it. If you haven't listened before, enjoy it, we just recap the show and talk about what happened on the show. We talk about what we think is going to come up. We have some theories. We have some ideas.
Starting point is 00:17:19 It's a lot of fun. Thanks for joining us. And then we, of course, have chewing the fat daily, which drops at 4 Central 5 Eastern Monday through Friday. So Instagram. is looking for influencers. Depending on how many followers you have and how hot you are, you can make big money as an influencer. But according to Instagram, have no fear.
Starting point is 00:17:49 Because now you can be an influencer too. People who have as few as a thousand followers are a growing market in the influencer economy. Lack of fame is one of the qualities that make when they recommend things. Well, that's kind of true. I kind of go with that. Brands enjoy working with them, partly because they're easy to deal with
Starting point is 00:18:08 in exchange for free products or a small commission. Nanos typically say whatever companies tell them to say. That's true. They don't try to change things around. Like, some talent. Oh, my gosh. Some talents are so needy. So it's kind of cool.
Starting point is 00:18:25 Actually, I might have to think about that checking in with Instagram, but I was looking at one story that we've had in the pile for, it's been in the fat pile for a while now, about one Instagrammer of Luca Sabat was being sued by Snapchat, because he had a deal with Snapchat and then broke that deal and they want their money back.
Starting point is 00:18:48 And when you listen to what he was supposed to do, this is what some of, you know, they talk about the nanos will do what they're asked to do. According to the complaint filed the New York Supreme Court, Sabat was paid $45,000 up front in an influencer marketing deal worth 60,000 for four. Count them four unique posts.
Starting point is 00:19:10 Sabat or Sabat? I really don't know how to pronounce his name. S-A-B-B-A-T, and I know that you probably do. He's an influencer to you. He's not an influencer to me. So I apologize to Luca Sabat. He has 1.4 million Instagram followers. He's to deliver one Instagram feed post,
Starting point is 00:19:29 three Instagram stories of him at New York, Milan and Paris fashion weeks, one of these posts would include a provided swipe-up link to Snap's spectacles, the smart glasses, that can record short videos for Snapchat. Part of the deal also met that Sabbath had to be photographed wearing spectacles while out in public during Milan and Paris Week. Not even New York. He had to wear the spectacles in Milan and Paris. He was also required to send Instagram posts.
Starting point is 00:20:02 for approval before publishing them and submit analytics to the firm within 24 hours of posting. In the end, he made one Instagram feed post, one story post, failed to submit post for approval, didn't provide analytics. He was photographed without wearing the spectacles at least once. They want their money back. Snap is like, no, we want our money back. You broke the deal. And so just remember that if you're going to become an influencer, And you tell people, hey, this is what I'm going to do for you, then you need to do that for them.
Starting point is 00:20:41 It's really simple. Contract? Follow through on the contract. A deal is a deal. Speaking of deals, you can get a great deal by buying a raffle ticket for $100 at mercury1.org. And you have a chance to win a Mercedes-Benz. We have the yearly gala coming up this coming Saturday here at the Mercury Studios, which I don't know if it's sold out yet or not.
Starting point is 00:21:20 So you can go to Mercury1.org, look for the gala link. Go there. Look for the raffle link and go there. I'm sure it's Mercury1.org slash gala 2018 or something like that. But just go to Mercury 1.org. And then they'll provide you with the links there right at the home page of Mercury 1 and follow the links. But for $100, you get a chance at a Mercedes-Benz.
Starting point is 00:21:43 And that's really kind of cool. And you have no idea. I said on my Instagram post, we do a pre-show Instagram feed post, just to kind of update and have a little fun on Instagram before the show before I record the podcast. And I talked about, I want to win this so bad. I'm going to have to buy a ticket for 100 bucks. Just for the chance. Just for the chance that that thing is circling around, circling around. And Glenn Beck reaches in and pulls out the country.
Starting point is 00:22:13 card. And the winner of the new Mercedes-Benz for Mercury1.org is Jeff Fisher. Do I want that to happen so bad? Now, if your name is pulled and you say to yourself, I don't want it, but give it to Jeffie, okay, I'll take it. I'll take it. No problem.
Starting point is 00:22:34 Mercury1.org. So good luck, and I will see you if you're coming to the Gallen next Saturday here at Mercury Studios. All right, so we got the news today that Stan Lee, the comic book Mastermind, who really changed the landscape of superheroes alone by creating all kinds of beloved characters, has passed away at the age of 95. And I wanted to talk a little bit to Brad Meltzer, who, you know, is the man himself in his own right, also, you know, bowed down to the great. greatness of Stan Lee that he was. Brad, thank you for coming on today. I appreciate it. It's good to talk to you. No, of course. Thank you for talking about him. Well, he's, I mean, how can you not? It's, it's, it's, it's, it's, Stan Lee. Did you, uh, did you ever have an opportunity to work with him? You know, um, he, he asked me to work with him many years ago. And, uh, it's, our schedules did not
Starting point is 00:23:44 work out. Um, but when I was researching, I did a novel about the creation of Superman. and where Superman came from. And was, to my own surprise, people said, me, need to go to speak to Stan Lee. And I was like, wait, but he's Marvel. And that was D.C., and they said, yeah, but he knew Jerry Siegel and Joe Schuster. They were all coming up together.
Starting point is 00:24:03 They were all kids together. Right. getting my thoughts together. And what I realize, Jeffrey, is that when I think of him, um, is he gave us more than Iron Man and the X-Men and Fantastic Four and of course Spider-Man, but he gave us creeds to live by. He gave us principles to emulate. He gave us villains, villains and racism to fight. And those things he gave me were the vital cornerstones of my own belief system, my sense of responsibility, my sense of hope. Um, and, and that stuff matters. It wasn't just guys wearing the underwear on the outside of their pants.
Starting point is 00:24:49 It mattered. Good was supposed to win. And I believe good does win, right? But it takes people like Stan Lee to remind us and give us the lessons because I think right now that's what I fear about in life is, you know, when I look now, his stories were so powerful because we could use them. And today, that's what I struggle with most. We've lost our sense of good, you know, what he did. unlike politicians today, unlike corporations, unlike advertised, unlike anything else, those lessons that he gave us were good, and we've lost our sense of good.
Starting point is 00:25:24 We know how to fight, but if you're just trying to win and you're fighting for nothing but yourself or you're fighting just for power, well, you've already lost. And that's what I grieve today. Not just a man, but that idea. And he had, I mean, he had an amazing life in and of itself between the, you know, the Marvel deals and the comic books and the characters. I know this weekend was, you know, the celebration of Veterans Day,
Starting point is 00:25:49 and he was, you know, he was a veteran working for the U.S. Army in World War II. And one of the saddest things I thought was that, you know, he lost his wife last year. You know, he was married to her for 70 years. And how many times do we hear that, you know, couples that have been together forever, one of them passes away. And the other one just doesn't seem to be.
Starting point is 00:26:13 make it much longer it's sad yeah no I mean and you know I actually never met his wife heard she was amazing she was the one I never met but I think what was more brokenhearted for me is that you heard that those final years were tough right and he had money it wasn't like most comicrators where they have no money but it's you know you just didn't know who was taking care of the guy once his wife was gone and I usually am not one of those people who feels like I'm glad people are at peace I I want people with me. I want my loved ones with me.
Starting point is 00:26:45 I'm tired of peace. You know, like I wish my mom and my dad were still alive, even though I know they're at peace. Right. But I'm glad Stanley's at peace. I feel like he was struggling in some weird way, whatever our own spidey senses were going off.
Starting point is 00:26:58 It just didn't, something felt wrong. And God, did he stand for so much more? And, you know, one of the things I wrote in my Facebook and Twitter and all that is Stanley lives forever. Stanley lives forever.
Starting point is 00:27:13 No question. I wanted to, and I appreciate you taking a couple of minutes out of your day today, just to, you know, talk a little bit about the man himself and give him a little bit of love and memory during chewing the fat here today this afternoon. That'll be posted a little bit later today. One of the things that I have a question of, though, as I'm wondering off the top of my head, how many films that he's already filmed bit pieces in that haven't been aired, are we still going to, we're still going to be able to share them. You know that the, just, you know the next one.
Starting point is 00:27:43 one is. You know the next two are. Right. You know that Captain Marvel's already filmed and you know that Infinity War is already filmed. So we'll be fortunate enough to see that for sure. Yeah. And you know those things, it's going to be one of those things that takes you right out of the moment and it'll make you feel sad. But man, it's going to be awesome. Yeah. It's going to be awesome. Yeah. Brad Meltzer. Thank you so much. I'll let you go. I know you're busy and I just wanted to steal a couple of minutes from you today. Thank you so much. Brad Meltzer.com.
Starting point is 00:28:14 We'll talk to you soon. I know you're busy. I know you're creating your own works for your own self, and I want to talk to you about it as well, but I just wanted to steal a couple of minutes of your time today for Stan. Of course, brother. Stan love your way. Always.
Starting point is 00:28:26 Thanks for remembering the good guys. I appreciate it. Peace. Okay, brother. Take care. Brad Meltzer, I love him. I appreciate him taking the time out of his day to talk to us a little bit about Stan Lee today.
Starting point is 00:28:43 And we'll get Brad back on. You know, Christ, he's got kids' books to hawk and novels to hawk. He's doing Facebook lives. He's got movies coming out. He's got all kinds of things happening. So we'll talk to him again soon for the holidays. And if you have an opportunity that you're looking to buy something that you want educational for the kids, go to Brad Meltzer.com and get one of Brad's books for your kids.
Starting point is 00:29:06 You know what? It's Christmas. Just buy the lot of them and be done with it. So apparently, Mike Pompeo is all wound up. And I can't figure out why he's all wound up about this, but he is. And speaking of Mike Pompeo, what made me think of him is I looked up while we're recording this podcast, and I see the Kashaghi Shaggy story, Shaggy Shaggy, from Saudi Arabia, where he was killed in Turkey. and I believe that I called what they're saying, right?
Starting point is 00:29:46 He was killed, it was planned, it was a rogue agent, they went too far, sorry, we've already taken care of it, it's over, have a nice day. So, okay, there you go, that's what's going to happen. But it made me, they had Mike Pompeo's name up there, which made me think of him. And so then it made me think of this story. Apparently, Heather Norat, right?
Starting point is 00:30:09 Norrett got Mike, Pompeo all worked up and all mad because of her story, which is now being called the Pompeo cheese incident. I mean, this is a State Department reckoning going on right here. Okay. And apparently, you know, you don't want to be messing with Mike Pompeo and his cheese incident. Bloomberg State Department correspondent Nick Wadams included a curious antidote in his report about Pompeo's frustrating trip to North Korea.
Starting point is 00:30:44 In the story, it says, By the morning of his second day, Pompeo had enough. Instead of the elaborate breakfast prepared for him, he ate toast and slices of processed cheese. I mean, that's just a poor man's grilled cheese. And not really a poor man. It's just a quick macronin cheese,
Starting point is 00:31:02 a quick grilled cheese. Right? And the, and the processed cheese, the processed cheese, the processed veldeatist. cheese, that melts the best on toast. So you get the toast just right. You pop the toast out hot. You put the two slices on the bread, or three or four.
Starting point is 00:31:19 And then you put the other slice on top of those and you hold it there for a little bit. They melt together nicely. And you got yourself a grilled cheese. You're living large. There's no dirty pan. No fuss, no muss. Pompeo was livid when he read that Bloomberg had reported he'd eaten processed velvita-style cheese.
Starting point is 00:31:39 Demanded know her bring him a head on a plate he wanted wadam's head on a plate but wadam was like um uh but she's the one that told me about the the cheese thing uh she's the one that said go ahead and write about it ooh not good so he's still pissed at wadam though the actual writer he was banned from his plane he couldn't fly with the secretary of state for the Holinsky summit. That's actually Helsinki. I got it.
Starting point is 00:32:15 Just stop it. Look at me like that. I am in love with this. I don't know why he was so mad about it. Because, I mean, look, he's a fellow fat guy. We all get it. You're all wound up and they brought you some North Korea, strawberries and grapes,
Starting point is 00:32:31 and you just wanted a grilled cheese. What's the big deal? Bring me a couple of slices of cheese from the plane. Make me some toast, and I'm having a grilled cheese sandwich. I mean, that's living large. Maybe, you know why he's so mad probably because he's not supposed to be eat that. The wife's probably got him on a diet.
Starting point is 00:32:49 We're trying to trim him down a little bit. And Trump's probably giving him a hard time every now and then. Hey, Mike, need a grilled cheese? And Trump's probably emailing him every now and then. And Mike, want to go out for the grilled cheese? He's probably pissed. So, I mean, that's why he's wound up. But it doesn't make any sense.
Starting point is 00:33:10 Anyway, it'd be fun. What we need to do, I'd like to get Mike Pompeo on this broadcast, the Secretary of State on chewing the fat. Now, that's a get. Chewing the fat has Secretary of State Mike Pompeo on it. Come on now. Get Mike on the phone. We talked to him about what's going on in the world and how difficult it is for him. And what's happening and we're dealing with Saudi Arabia and Turkey and difficulties in North Korea.
Starting point is 00:33:37 and there's plenty of difficulties around the world that the Secretary of State has to deal with. And then when I set them up for that, then we'll ask them, hey, Mike, let me ask you, I mean, Secretary of State, Pompeo. Let me ask you a question. Were you really upset about the grilled cheese sandwich thing, or was that just a joke?
Starting point is 00:33:54 Because I got no problem with you having toast and cheese for breakfast. I got no problem with that. You know, I'm with you. That probably go over really good. And one thing that I'd like to say I'd like to end with is I find it fast. fascinating that Twitter at Jack is now wants to gauge the intent of fake news before taking action.
Starting point is 00:34:19 Do you think, Jack, maybe you got in too much heat by taking somebody's joke tweet down about voting on Wednesday the 7th instead of Tuesday the 6th? And it wasn't trying to affect the election. It was a joke. Fake news as a category or misinformation as a category is just way too big because fiction and jokes could also be classified as misinformation. You think, Jack? How about this? I got a way for you to solve it, Jack, all right?
Starting point is 00:34:57 Don't do anything. Make sure that a person's tweet goes to whoever is following them. done you're good how about that how about you make sure and i'm okay with you going in and making sure that all the accounts are actual humans and aren't bots i'm okay with that other than that though i don't how about you do nothing you don't you don't worry about what i'm tweeting you don't worry about what chris cruz is tweeting you don't worry about what glen beck is tweeting you don't worry about what Lewis Farrakhan is tweeting. You let them tweet whatever the hell they want to tweet.
Starting point is 00:35:40 And then let us decide who we want to follow, who we want to read, who we want to believe, and we'll go from there. And then you're done. How about we do that? Huh? I know. I'm living a pipe dream. I know, because you can't just keep, you couldn't do that, could you? No, you got to get your little meddling hands in there, your little Jack meddling hand.
Starting point is 00:36:04 in there and try to fix all the world's problems so that the world is just like you want it to be. Good luck, Jack. Good luck. Don't forget, though, your next purge, Jack, don't forget about me, okay? At Jeffie, I'm right. I'm good. Thanks.
