Starting point is 00:00:59 responsibly. And now, a Blaze Media podcast. So I talked on Wednesday during my segment on Pat Unleashed, the chewing the fat segment, that Taylor Swift was getting ready for her big weekend special of this Sunday on ABC. And then it was also, you know, exciting news for you, Swifties that are excited about it. You can also watch it live, and then you're going to be able to stream it on Hulu and Disney. Yay. The thing is, is though you're not really watching it live because it was filmed last September.
Starting point is 00:01:42 And I wondered, wow, why is Taylor doing this deal with, you know, ABC and airing, you know, crappy old concerts from Paris in September? everybody else is doing, you know, Zoom shows and FaceTime shows and Skype shows. They're bringing in all these performers, but no, not Taylor. And then, I know why now, she's hurting. She's hurting. Times are tough at the Taylor Swift household. We just found out that she,
Starting point is 00:02:25 has sold one of her, one of her jets. I know. I don't know how she's getting by. I don't know how she's getting by, but she had to get rid of a jet. Her, the Salt Falcon 50, that she's had since 2012, by the way. She had to get rid of it.
Starting point is 00:02:48 Yeah, I know. I don't know how she's getting by. Maybe we need to start a go fund me for Taylor. Just to say, hey, Taylor. man, we know it's tough. We know it's tough to, you know, have to sell that one to six million dollar plane. We're not quite sure how the old Falcon 50, how much it costs. Now, I know you want to start to GoFundMe and you're already typing in GoFundMe with Taylor Swift and stuff,
Starting point is 00:03:16 but just remember that she still has her Bone Dock 900, the Falcon 900. that's only worth 40 million. So she had to get rid of the dump, the used plane, because you can't fly on that anymore. But she did keep the one jet that's worth 40 million. So maybe we wait until a little while to start to go fund me. If you are in radio business and want to work in Pittsburgh, I would say there's probably going to be a job opening.
Starting point is 00:04:02 I hope there's not, but I would say that there probably is going to be a job opening in Pittsburgh. A Pittsburgh radio station talk show host has apologized on the air, apologized on social media, had the mayor cancel an interview that was scheduled, on his radio program because he misgendered a guest. I know.
Starting point is 00:04:42 How is this man even still alive, let alone on the air? Marty Griffin, host of KDKAAM, called Dr. Rachel Levin, sir during a conference call with reporters. What? I don't know how this man is alive. I don't know how he still has a job. Apparently, he was asking a question about different phases. The state is implementing.
Starting point is 00:05:12 The E stay-at-home orders and said, sir, twice. Griff, he was not happy. I'm sorry, she was not happy. She said, please don't misgender me. and that it was really insulting. Now, he apologized multiple times. He apologized on Twitter. He hasn't tweeted anything in two days
Starting point is 00:05:37 except his apology. It's incredible. Then the mayor was supposed to be on it. The mayor, who is a really good guy. Bill, I think was his last name, Paduto, P-E-D-U-T-O. And I apologize.
Starting point is 00:05:56 I don't want to. misname or misgender the mayor. The person looks like a male, but I don't know. He just don't know. He is, I'll read you his pin tweet, the mayor of Pittsburgh. As the mayor of Pittsburgh, I can, this has been pinned for two, you, three years, three years since June 1st, 2017. This has been his pin tweet.
Starting point is 00:06:20 As the mayor of Pittsburgh, I can assure you that we will follow the guidelines. lines of the Paris Agreement for our people, our economy, and future. Wow. Okay. How's that working out for you, Mayor? Anyway, go back.
Starting point is 00:06:40 He canceled his interview. Because that is KDA KDA Radio, KDCA Radio, used to have good people on the air. And now it's just shock jog sensationalism and worse.
Starting point is 00:07:00 He called a person, sir, that, I don't know if you seen the picture of the person they called sir, but you can well understand that where the accident may happen. The accident of calling, of calling what's a certain? name? Levin Asser. Because it seems if you think
Starting point is 00:07:40 you're being misgendered, then you're probably still a little shaky on that whole transgender thing that you're living. So I'm sure, and I have not heard, Dr. Rachel
Starting point is 00:07:56 Levin. I have not heard her, but I'm sure that it could come across as, don't misgender me. I'm not a sir. I'm a her. It's really insulting. Oh, oh, okay. Okay, no problem.
Starting point is 00:08:20 Sorry. We've got to get audio. God, we'll find audio of the Pennsylvania's Health Department secretary because Dr. Rachel Levin, I'm sure. I'm sure. Sounds very female. Okay. So we have, I want to make sure that I have this straight as far as what's going on,
Starting point is 00:08:44 you know, around the country. We have the barber in Owasso, Michigan, who has his license suspended because he went up against the state. Now, that was after, right, the Colorado restaurant defied the king. the governor and the governor took his license away. Now we have Michigan's governor, Whitmer, saying that the armed protests could lengthen the stay at home. If you guys complain some more, I'm going to make it longer.
Starting point is 00:09:18 That's just the way it is. So Facebook has deleted the Michigan anti-quarantine groups page. They had 330 or 380,000. members, but Facebook just deleted it. That's gone. So they've started the new page. I've got news for you, Facebook and Michigan. Just deleting the Facebook page doesn't delete the movement.
Starting point is 00:09:48 But, you know, what do I know? Now, we do have some places that are allowing restaurants and businesses to open up. one of them is Texas. One of them in Washington State are allowing restaurants to open as long as as long as the restaurants will keep a log of all customers to aid in contact tracing.
Starting point is 00:10:16 Oh, good. Make the restaurant. We need your name, your number. It's just incredible. Now there are some states are hiring. we talked about that already with the contract contact tracing say that really fast
Starting point is 00:10:37 contact tracing contact tracing contact tracing so they want the restaurants to keep track of all the people coming in that is so nice
Starting point is 00:10:54 so nice of them now I know that Isn't it L.A. that wants to have contact tracing ambassadors? Isn't that special? Yes. Tell me that's not special. Tell me you don't get an orange.
Starting point is 00:11:15 Do I get an orange little vest? Do I get to walk around and be a contact tracer policeman? I'm sorry, ambassador. I mean, okay. Okay. I'm starting to believe that it's almost time to put it into it. I mean, really, I'm okay with you or me or your neighbor deciding to stay home and social distance, but I'm not okay with the king telling me I can't do it.
Starting point is 00:11:59 there these rules are are not laws but it doesn't matter i mean in new york alone you have uh miles of streets closing de blasio wants to close them more down uh manhattan the stories and then look he's closing down roads in manhattan and i know a big deal you don't live in manhattan i get But they're doing that. And now they're telling the stories are coming out that, well, you know what? If this continues, I mean, these buildings and businesses face a huge reckoning. Really?
Starting point is 00:12:45 Really? Is that what's going to happen? That's strange. That's really strange. Huh. Huh. Now, when you think about the king, telling us what to do.
Starting point is 00:12:58 Isn't that, I mean, that's what we started this country on, because we really don't want to take orders from the king anymore. Now, one of the strange places that we hear news and read news and you go, wow, that's great. We get all this bad news all over the country, all over the country. The king is laying down the law. The governors are laying down the law. they're getting their panties in a wad or pennies,
Starting point is 00:13:29 and they're getting everything in a wad, and they're deciding that their rules are now mandated from on high, the law of the land, because I said so. Well, the Wisconsin Supreme Court has overturned the state's stay-at-home order, ruling it unlawful and unenforceable. Yay! So that is incredible. Now, again, one state.
Starting point is 00:14:04 We're hanging our hat on one state, the state of Wisconsin, but it does feel good that there's actual sense, actual common sense from a court of law in this country. Doesn't it? It does feel good. It's like, wow, we can, that's good. Why isn't that going on all over the place?
Starting point is 00:14:32 Why? Why isn't it going on all over the place? Because when we go down to Tennessee, we see where judges are saying it's okay to film clothed women in public without their consent. Now, I want to be clear, I think I am okay with it. I don't think I can be me and not like this.
Starting point is 00:15:06 As a father and a husband, I may question this ruling. As a Jeffie, I think I like it. I think I like it. So a group of Tennessee judges has ruled that it isn't a crime to film women fully clothed without their consent in public. Okay. Okay. So apparently, this man admitted to stalking women in retail stores and filming their private areas for his own sexual gratification.
Starting point is 00:15:44 He actually touched one of them, I'm sorry, grabbed one of them, photographed them without their consent. So he said, I didn't have me to scare anybody. I only filmed the females for my own purposes. I just like using the video function on my phone. Oh, okay. No problem. It's more of an obsession with the technological aspect of the phone than a perversion. The judges all agreed,
Starting point is 00:16:19 no one has a right to expect privacy in the digital age. Exposure to the capture of our images by cameras has become, perhaps unfortunately, oh, he's throwing that in there, a reality of daily life in our digital age. Yes, it has. Yes, it has. And you know what? We've all kind of agreed that when we're going to the gas station, we know there's cameras.
Starting point is 00:16:53 I mean, we've, for years now, we, you might as well just pretend you're making a movie when you go out because there's cameras everywhere, right? And just everything is being filmed. But so if I go into a store and I'm buying a dress, don't misgender me, and I, uh, I know that the store has video cameras filming me shopping in the store. now it's okay if little Billy wants to come up and just start filming me with his phone
Starting point is 00:17:31 I mean it's okay you're not going to get in trouble for that I mean I guess we are okay with that right I mean we have people filming stuff all over all the time streets stores we see fights we see all kinds of stuff recorded all over the world and we're kind of okay with it
Starting point is 00:17:50 The only time you get in trouble is if you, you know, are, you know, upskirting or up panting, upshorting. Plus, I don't think it's okay in anywhere, anywhere in the world, to go up to people and grab them. Right? I mean, you're not supposed to do that, especially in the social distancing world. No way. No way. You go up to someone and grabbing them. I mean, you better have a 10-foot stick.
Starting point is 00:18:26 Wait. No, disregard that. So let's leave the country. Let's go over the border way down to Mexico. I mean, I get nothing for, I get nothing for that? I mean, I get nothing for... All right, I'll start again.
Starting point is 00:19:00 Sad. So let's leave the U.S. Shall we? Let's go way far away, you know, down in Mexico. Now with our brothers in Mexico. Mexico. Like I said, Mexico. Our people.
Starting point is 00:19:17 You're right. Mexico. Mexico. Mexico. their president has now ordered military on the streets to curb the rising violence. Wait, rising violence in Mexico? I'm sorry, Mexico? I want to be one with the one with the people. So, not that there was ever a problem with violence in Mexico.
Starting point is 00:19:44 34,582 people murdered in 2019. That's not really a problem. So 3,000 homicides were recorded in March of this year. Okay. does seem to be a little bit of an issue down there in Mexico. Mexico, yeah, Mexico. That's what I'm saying. Thank you.
Starting point is 00:20:22 So we're using armed forces. Now, you know, you hope that those armed forces are not part of the cartels. No one supports... Chivaldo Guzman Loera. Is that what you're talking about? Joaquina Chivaldo Guzman-Gusman. his family he can't be in charge anymore because he's in prison right i because you all seen those movies you know we seen all the movies where you know the joaquina chivaldo gusman loeras of the
Starting point is 00:20:55 world can't still dictate what happens in their little cartels so i'm not saying that this next story has anything to do with trying to curb the violence on the streets in mexico I'm not saying that this next story has anything to do with the story that we did a few days ago sometimes. It's all blurred together now in the lockdown of the bunker. That drug shipments are way down and they're having a tough time transporting it around the world. But I just want you to know that Mexican, I'm sorry, Mexico is going to be providing state. and other beef cuts to the United States because of our processing plant's issues.
Starting point is 00:21:49 And so we've got shortages. No, no, no, thank you. Mexico, you could keep the carnis. We have shortages. Fast food chains, grocery stores. We've all got problems with getting enough steaks and other beef cuts in our stores and our fast food restaurants.
Starting point is 00:22:10 So Mexico is going to help by shipping some of that up to the U.S. Thank you. Thank you so much. Serious no. Serious no. Are you going to eat the Mexico beef when they comes? Are they going to say from Mexico? Is it going to say, this part of our meat department is Mexico meat?
Starting point is 00:22:36 I don't know. Are we going to trust the country? that still to this date hasn't done anything to combat the COVID-19 crap that is happening and around the world. I wasn't going to trust them? All I know because of COVID-19 and the surge of cases that the uneasiness among U.S. consumers and fast food burger chains. We need meat. We need burgers. And do we care where it comes from?
Starting point is 00:23:13 We don't want to start eating dogs, although we're going too soon, I promise you. But this is an example of what head of Kroger was talking about with there's going, there will be meat just a matter of, you know, what it comes from, what it does. Some days you're going to have this, other days you're going to have this. And some days it's going to be mehko meat, guaranteed. Isn't that? You're ready for it. Doesn't that go against all of our regulations against all these farmers,
Starting point is 00:23:46 against all these, you just try to sell something to a store, you can't, you got to get FDA approval, FCC approval, FBI, CIA, USDA, every freaking acronym out there has to approve
Starting point is 00:24:00 to make sure that you meet is fresh and ready for you. Are you kidding me? Okay. So why do you want people? to die here in the United States of America from COVID-19, getting back to work too early in our meat processing plants, when we can have safe, healthy, fresh beef from Mexico. You're talking about the country that hasn't done anything to stop the spread. Got it.
Starting point is 00:24:37 Look, all I know is that the streets are starting to get. low on meth. They're starting to get low on cocaine. They're starting to get low on heroin. People are taking to the streets not because they're a fear of COVID-19, fear of not having the drugs they want. If this is a way to get the drugs back into America by bringing them in with Mexico meat, okay. I'm not saying that's going to happen. I'm just saying it's possible. once again me and you are not communicating we're not in zinc
Starting point is 00:25:16 and I feel that this has happened for the last three days but we're not completely in sync all I'm saying is how can I trust the country that hasn't done anything to stop this bread and now I'm going to eat their meat wow
Starting point is 00:25:29 look the armed forces are going to be out of the streets in Mexico to curb the violence and then the Mexican, Mexico beef producers are going to help the United States out by shipping steaks and other beef products to the U.S. in our time of need. I mean, I think we need that.
Starting point is 00:25:56 People need food. People need to eat in our time of the pandemic. And I don't know why you want people to die because you hate Mexicans. Care to answer? No, no. No, you know what? Look at the time. Let's go to the break room. I need an ice cold Coca-Cola zero as it is.
Starting point is 00:26:23 Oh, my gosh. So good. Hey, if you're listening to this broadcast live chewing the fat, the 14th of May, 2020, day, I don't know, what is it, 101, day 102 of the lockdown, the stay-at-home orders here in the bunker. something like that. I don't know. I think it broke 100,
Starting point is 00:26:46 maybe it broke 60. I don't know. Somewhere in there. We're between 63. Like 63. Like I said, we're between 60 and 100. I don't know why.
Starting point is 00:26:54 Like, I don't need you to give a range. You could give the exact number, which is between 60 and 100. Like I said. 63. Yeah, 63. So, I mean,

You can email Chewing the Fat at theblaze.com at any time if you have information, like Aaron did, who emailed me, and I believe that Aaron has come up with a tremendous idea, and I'm probably going to do it. All right.
Starting point is 00:29:32 His email to me is this is way better than Dana Lash pinned to tweet that she stole. Okay? Way better. This is a listener. Chewing the Fat. Email me at Chew of the Fat of the Blaze.com. Way better than Dana Lash pin tweet that she stole.
Starting point is 00:29:56 It's bad if you would rather pay the ticket. I think that's going to be my pin tweet. Remember yesterday we talked about the Louisiana, Louisiana or Mississippi cop. Louisiana. Pulled, like I said, Louisiana or Mississippi cop. Yeah, you had to write Louisiana. that pulled over a speeder, a lawbreaker, and he talked her into having sexual relations
Starting point is 00:30:23 and not getting the ticket. Then she complained. I was talking about that with my wife yesterday, and she liked that. She said, good for her, that she got some, and did not get to pay the ticket. And then complained. and then reported a sexual predator.
Starting point is 00:30:43 I'm like, whoa, whoa, whoa. He is not a sexual predator. I'm sorry, but he's not a sexual predator at all. He's a guy that's an opportunity. And I'm sorry. I say that he saw a slut and say, I could probably get some from this girl. So we're making the distinction between sexual predator
Starting point is 00:31:04 and a guy who saw an opportunity and took it. I'm not quite sure. That's not quite sure. sure that's a distinction that's actually valid. But, okay, okay. It's 2020. It's 2020. Trust me, it will hold in a court of law.
Starting point is 00:31:26 The point yesterday was that, wow, I mean, how bad is this guy? Right. I mean, how bad? It's embarrassing for him in front of you. If you pulled someone over and, you know, said, hey, you want a little non-ticket business we'll just slide in the back of this Toyota Camry take care of a little business
Starting point is 00:31:48 and I won't write you a ticket and then get complained on dude you need help there's a problem that's a problem with you so anyway my new pin tweet according to Aaron should be it's bad if you would
Starting point is 00:32:03 rather pay the ticket and I think I'm going to do that I think that's going to be my pin tweet. Because you know what? You're right. You're right that, you know, I need to finally get over Dana Lass stealing my, stealing my life and pinning the tweet. I need to get over that.
Starting point is 00:32:21 I don't know that I can't, but I can try, right? So we've got all kinds of entertainment news. I teased it yesterday. I mean, I've got, just, where should we? I mean, we have Britney Spears coming out with the new album. She's still going crazy on Instagram, which is one, We talked about Taylor Swift. We have Joy Behar saying she's going to stay home until Trump is out of office.
Starting point is 00:32:43 Oh, no, Joy. Please don't go out into the rest of the world. We have the price is right donating almost $100,000 to Planned Parenthood as what's his face? I don't want to miss gender. Rupal host the show. We have Brian May, who I talked about on Pat yesterday, who tore his glutious Maximus. with his line of what was his how he heard it
Starting point is 00:33:15 he talked about he wasn't just outside he was he that's what he was screaming when he tore his gluteus maximus in a moment of over enthusiastic gardening who among us who among us has not had
Starting point is 00:33:35 a moment of over-enthusiastic gardening. We have Lady Gaga, Elton John as attorney, Barbara Streisand's attorney, hacked. They're looking for a ransom of $21 million or they're going to release all the information. Okay. We have theaters
Starting point is 00:33:57 mulling $2 tickets to retro blockbusters to get people back to the movies. I don't know that that's going to work. Are you going to go to the movie theater and spend $2 on a ticket and $8,500 on popcorn and soda and candy? So you're saving, you know, $7,900. But on seeing, what, Jurassic Park? another blockbuster or Jaws or whatever.
Starting point is 00:34:40 Whatever the blockbuster is. You're going to pay two bucks for that to go back into the movie theater? I don't think so. And we talked about Disney World taking reservations to open on July 1st. But now the first wave of the Walt Disney World employees are going to be back in the park on Saturday. They're going to get the resort ready for its parcel. reopening on May 20th. Wow.
Starting point is 00:35:06 So it's going to partially reopen on May 20th. And, you know, they're going to have the big opening on July 1st. But apparently they're getting ready for masks, plexiglass dividers, temperature checks, anal probes. So enjoy, no, they're not, they probably aren't going to do anal probes. But I wouldn't surprise me. But hey, we're open for business. Right.
Starting point is 00:35:40 Right. Come to Florida. Come to Disney World. Yay. All right. Let's get to the coronavirus numbers. And we also will talk to Chris about his travels
Starting point is 00:36:07 on the podcast version of chewing the fat. So if you're not a subscriber, make sure you subscribe because if you're listening to this on another platform that's not a podcast platform that you subscribe to, freeloader. And you're going to want to the full podcast. So at the time of this recording, 4,485,489 total cases worldwide.
Starting point is 00:36:37 And we broke the 300,623 deaths. We broke that 300,000 mark by 623 as of the time of this recording. In the United States of America, we're looking at 1,438,426 total cases. cases, 85,699 total deaths. Wow. Still climbing pretty good. And China, looking to make sure that they are not misleading the world. They are at 82,929 total cases.
Starting point is 00:37:23 They do not, you know, they don't want to break that 83,000 mark as we continue to tell you. but they do have three new cases today. So, I mean, if you think that they're misleading you, you are way wrong, my friend. All right. TSA checkpoint numbers yesterday. I mean, it's up, but not by much. yesterday 176,66 people through the TSA turnstiles.
Starting point is 00:38:04 So, you know, Chris was one of those and he's, you know, he's in Florida. So we'll find out about his travels and find out about if there were any fogging machines going on, any anal probes, any temp checks, anything like that going on at the TSA here in the United States of America. I love the story about the restaurant that is opening back up. You talk about business. You have to be social distance. And some tables can't be open. And some can be, well, a Virginia restaurant.
Starting point is 00:38:38 The Inn at Little Washington, apparently a world-renowned restaurant in Washington, has three Michelin Stars. And now they're going to be, they're going to reopen. on the 29th of this month, and they're going to have fully dressed mannequins at the tables that are not open to living and breathing human beings in their restaurants.
Starting point is 00:39:09 So, I mean, that's one way to solve the issue. I mean, it's, I don't know what I feel. It's kind of cool. The look of it looked kind of cool, but it, Maybe it's a little creepy too. I don't know. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:39:25 Have you watched Dummy on Quibi yet? Now, while that isn't a mannequin, it's similar to a mannequin. It's just, just me. Hong Kong authorities said they have arrested 230 people, probably more now, during a pro-democracy protest over the weekend. after a sing-along demonstration at a shopping mall spilled out onto the streets,
Starting point is 00:39:57 we cannot have that. We cannot have a sing-along in a mall spilling out out of the streets. And so that cannot happen. We also have news that more than 500 people have been arrested or detained in China proper. because we can't have that. We're reporting that 500 people have been arrested up to now that have been speaking out against the rules, regulations, laws, authority on high, all knowing all seeing Winnie the Pooh has, I'm sorry, President Xi, has ordered.
Starting point is 00:40:44 They also report that with an act, we have doctors without borders. When did we get reporters without borders? When did that start? I want to know. I missed the memo because I thought that was the internet. But it's just me. So reporters without borders has revealed that China has jailed about a hundred Chinese journalists.
Starting point is 00:41:17 for questioning and reporting on the coronavirus. Okay, good, good news, good news. But there is actually good news, which I don't think will actually happen because I believe that the American pharmaceutical companies will be the first companies to have a vaccine and a, and I use parentheses cure to COVID-19. I believe that the world is waiting for us to do that.
Starting point is 00:41:46 but a French pharmaceutical company, Sanify, has been working on a COVID-19 vaccine, and they have just said, this should make you feel proud as an American, look, Americans are likely going to be the first to get the vaccine from us. It's just the way it is. You know what I mean?
Starting point is 00:42:06 You want to know why? Yeah, they, Americans stepped up with the cash before any other country or anyone else around the world. So they stepped up with, the cash first. If we come up with the vaccine, they're going to go ahead and get it first. So make America great again, right? Ooh, probably should.

Starting point is 00:42:33 So yes, we told you that yesterday, 176,667 travelers through the TSA term styles, we know that budget airline has said that by the way I think is budget like terminal F? Are they out of terminal that doesn't even exist at the airports?
Starting point is 00:42:57 Isn't budget the car rental? I feel like I don't think there's a budget airline and there's a budget car in Europe. In Europe. Oh, in Europe. The European. Oh, okay.
Starting point is 00:43:10 But I'm just, I mean, spirit is the American version of budget, right? Yes, yes. Or budget is the European version of Spirit, whatever. They plan to resume 40%, though, so, yeah, this European flight. I mean, they resume 40% of its scheduled flights in July. In July, I mean, they're already talking, in Europe, oh, my gosh. I've got the, I don't have it open now, I should, but they, they're talking about how
Starting point is 00:43:41 they're going to proceed with with vacationers and people coming to different countries and how part of the European Union will now say, well, this country and this country aren't hotspots, so you can go there. But you can't go to the other countries. Okay. All right. Have fun.
Starting point is 00:44:03 But anyway, budget is going to start resuming some of their flights with enhanced safety measures. and they're going to have everybody asking permission to use the bathroom. And so, you know, that kind of thing, which is great. This is great. Here in America, we've already told the airlines, hey, start giving these people their money back like you said you would.
Starting point is 00:44:28 Now, as you know, we have talked about this on this podcast before. The airline's money is already gone, man. That money is gone. So good luck. And they are already playing with word games, just like they have been doing forever. We're saying every flight is on time. It isn't.
Starting point is 00:44:50 But it's on time because if the flight backs away from the loading dock, it's on time. But it sits on the tarmac for three hours. It's still considered being on left, leaving on time. Well, you didn't take off. Yeah, the way we figured out is if you, you back away from the loading dock,
Starting point is 00:45:11 then it left on time. Oh, okay. But when they land, if you land, you landed on time as long as you're on the tarmac on time. Not the loading dock. Oh, okay. All right, however you want to play it. That's fine. But again, they're playing with words.
Starting point is 00:45:27 They're saying that, you know, you're getting your money back if the flight is canceled or something has significantly changed. And for many people, the airline is not considering a flight canceled if they postpone it,
Starting point is 00:45:48 if they delay it until, you know, tomorrow, or the next day. Like happened to Chris before, I mean, they changed his flight to the next day. And, you know, at a different time. That's when we have the flight, so it wasn't canceled, right? So if he couldn't do it, he would be lucky getting credit. You know, getting a credit and significantly changed.
Starting point is 00:46:15 What constitutes significantly changed? Do they, if I postpone a flight a day, that's not significant. So we don't have to give you your money back. Just incredible, incredible times. So how did the flight go, first of all, Chris? And I know I know a little bit of how it went. through some of your tweets and some of your text messages to me. But first I want to know, was there social distancing on the plane?
Starting point is 00:46:47 Inside the plane, there was no social distancing at all. Remember that whole thing about them not sitting people in the middle seat? I do. That is no longer a thing because that plane was packed like sardines. Okay. So what they've done then is they've said, you know, hey, we'll have the middle seat empty when applicable, when we can.
Starting point is 00:47:12 And I even complained about it on social media not to be a Karen. I wanted to see... Did sound like you're being a Karen. Oh, I was definitely being... To the naked eye, I was being a Karen. But I really wanted to see what was going to be the excuse of saying, oh, you know, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.
Starting point is 00:47:29 And the excuse was what you just said because I sent you the official statement they sent me because I was very confused because as we were walking, oh, let me backtrack, we denied entry to one lady into the plane because she did not have face protection. Could she, did she make the argument that it was, she couldn't wear one? I hear the argument, but I did hear her complain very loudly that how dare they not let her in. she is not sick. She made the same argument
Starting point is 00:48:07 we made yes. Everyone else is wearing a mask. Everybody else is wearing a hell. I'm not wearing one. No one's going to get sick because if I have something, they're not going to get it. And if they have something, I'm not going to get it because she was making a great argument for it.
Starting point is 00:48:23 So we did that. Then as I'm walking in. And they still denied her entry, though. They didn't provide a mask. No. Provide a Spirit Airline mask. Nope. They just said, you don't have a mask.
Starting point is 00:48:34 you're out. You cannot go. And, and they were singling people out. Sir, can you please put on your mask? Sir? Wow. In the plane. Now, here's a little loop on the rule. If you are eating or drinking, you don't have to wear a mask. well I mean that makes sense right how you can't what's all that food on your face that's in the mask I'm trying to I'm still hungry I don't understand I'm like a horse you know I'm just going to put everything inside the mask
Starting point is 00:49:15 and I'm going to eat it as a horse you know it was on the other side it's supposed to be opposite anyway so so they're giving you the out of of course you can have your snacks or whatever because we still want to be able to make money selling food or drink. So, especially Spirit that charges you to, you know, oh, you're wearing two shoes today? That's an extra dollar. So you can take that down. So if I'm eating all the time, I'm good, right?
Starting point is 00:49:47 So tomorrow I'm flying again back to DFW. Have you left the airport? Because you sound like you haven't even left the airport, to be honest. Like Spirit has not let you leave. I'm quarantined in the airport. Sounds like Spirit said, no, you can't leave the airport. As you can see, I'm still in the terminal. There's buildings and there's stuff around me.
Starting point is 00:50:07 But the one thing that upset me is if I have a cup with a straw and I just put it in my mouth for the next two hours and ten minutes, can they say something to me telling me, hey, sir, can you please put on your mask? No, I'm drinking. Right. Right. Right. And if you don't believe me, are you going to take the cup away from me?
Starting point is 00:50:27 Wow. So the plane is packed. They're not adding flights to accommodate customers social distancing. They don't care about your safety like they say they do really. They don't. No. And they had to do a whole spiel before the safety crap that they, the dance routine that they do every time you fly out. They did a thing about that saying what are the rules are. And then the pilot came on and talked about how the new filters and the new, listen to this, Jeff Fisher. And I want you to tell me, if you believe this coming from Spirit Airlines. They change the entire AC circulation system to fit the new standards so that the air that's being recycled is not recycling the coronavirus if someone has it inside the plane.
Starting point is 00:51:30 I'd like to see that. It was like, yeah, you know, because what happens then this new air system what happens, it pushes everything to the ground and then that will filter out and then that new air that you're getting is fresh new air through new
Starting point is 00:51:47 hepa-hippa filters that because the way that the new system is made, it pushes the air down and I'm like wait. So instead of pushing the air up it's pushing the air down
Starting point is 00:52:03 so it goes past all, everybody's smelly feet on top of the coronavirus. You get the coronavirus, then the smelly feet, and then goes into the new hepa filter system. But it's still the same recycled air that comes back coming down. No, no, Fisher,
Starting point is 00:52:19 are you stupid? It's a brand new air circulation system that they installed in this aircraft because of COVID-19, which is why I think, they're no longer locking down the middle seat because, you know, that new air filter that, you know, that they got, it's just going to, it's going to filter out everything that is non-tox, that is toxic. So I don't know. Every plane, I'll make sure I understand this, every plane has a new system that instead of blowing the air up, blows the air down.
Starting point is 00:53:03 Yes. That air goes through a new heppa filtration system and makes its way back to you, but it's still the same recycled air. You had it until the end. No, it's a brand new air. It was filtered through the HEPA filter. And by the way, I am really upset
Starting point is 00:53:28 that there was no fogger. Yeah. Yeah. So when do they fog? I don't know. But here's where I have an issue with the fogging. Yesterday, I sent you a picture because Orlando Police Department is now using foggers. And regulations rule say, according to Fox 35, Orlando, is that the only mandatory to clean with the fogger once a month. Wow. Once a month. So I think how powerful is this EPA registered disinfectant that it takes one month away and be now dirty again?
Starting point is 00:54:19 Well, I mean, it's completely safe. And I also love, you know, one of the things that jumped out at me again when I was, I kept reading it over and over my head because I'm trying to figure out, you know, I'm trying to figure out the loophole. It's EPA registered. Okay. So if I call up the EPA and say, hey, I want to register my special dog poop fogger, and they say, okay, you're registered. That doesn't make it okay. All right? I don't know that that matter. We've got to find out exactly what being registered on the EPA from the EPA means. You want to be EPA approved? Yeah, I feel like that's better than register. How dare you? How dare you question the safe? That could be wrong. EPA registered. How dare you?
Starting point is 00:55:07 I could be wrong. I mean, I could be wrong. The EPA knows that they're using this disinfectant. Yeah, the safety disinfectant. That's good. That could kill stuff for a month. It kills coronavirus for a month.
Starting point is 00:55:22 I know. When I heard that yesterday, I was like, oh my gosh, Fisher, Warren you in Florida right now. Listen to this newscast because,
Starting point is 00:55:32 so are you telling me, that oh and by the way Spirit Airlines send a new email yesterday saying we recommend you bring extra chlorox wipes with you if you would like to you know
Starting point is 00:55:47 be extra careful I was like wait I thought you were cleaning that out and I thought the foggers are good for a month I were told from the Orlando Police Department wow so confused on and that's what I was trying to get them
Starting point is 00:56:04 Look, look, seriously now, everyone is really confused because everyone is saying what they want to say to fit their narrative. Governors, mayors, presidents, whatever. It doesn't matter. All countries, they're all saying it to fit their narrative. We have to get this country back to being this country again. And it has to be it's your responsibility to fog yourself. You want to hose yourself down with a fogger, good for you. But we got to, I mean, they're talking about asking for more money from the government because we're falling apart.
Starting point is 00:56:46 We're falling apart because we've got to get back to work. Companies have got to open back up. We, I mean, wow. So how was the airport itself? It was really sad. So remember last two weeks ago when I traveled here, Orlando Airport was completely a mess. Like a terminal was shut down. Right, right, right.
Starting point is 00:57:14 So as soon as you get off the plane, the little lady speaker is telling you that the B side is closed. Everything that car rental, everything else is on the A side. So they're starting to change boards, the lady on the top. And it's only taken two months. Right? And the, because if you've never been to Orlando, you have to take a train from the terminal to where everybody is. That change.
Starting point is 00:57:46 And now Mayor Buddy Dyer, which is the mayor of Orlando. Love Buddy Dyer. Oh, my God, Fisher. I'm going to record it tomorrow because I want you to hear his BS crap. I'm going to paraphrases. Welcome to the city of tourism. Due to COVID-19, we asked you to stay at home and not go out.
Starting point is 00:58:11 What? Stay at home? I'm at an airport. No, buddy Dyer? No. I'm going to record it. I'm going to record it tomorrow. Okay, all right, let's say this.
Starting point is 00:58:22 All right, that's fine. All right, so the mayor tells us, or we think he does, we don't know for sure yet. Chris hasn't recorded it. He tells us to stay home. home. All right. So that's fine. Why can't I say, hey, Mayor Buddy Dyer, screw you. I'm not going to stay home. I'll make sure I's kind of social distance myself, okay, as much as I can, as much as I want to,
Starting point is 00:58:43 or as much as other people are making me, and I'll go out. But that's our decision. Not 25% of that business can be open, not a third of this business, now no to this business, can't travel here, can't travel there. How about we have to take it back. We have to start being America again. We have to start. Remember when we were joking around about not being able to travel and not being able
Starting point is 00:59:12 to go here and go there and shutting things down? It's not a freaking joke, man. All right, I have to stop. I'll leave you with this. I'll leave you with this. All right. From at fact on Twitter, most laugh tracks
Starting point is 00:59:28 for TV were recorded in the 1950s, which means that many, and I would change that to, most of the people you hear laughing, are dead. Good night. Be safe.
Starting point is 00:59:42 Sweet dreams.
