If you're listening live on the 28th of May 2020, I need you to take a moment and remember this day in history. Way back in 2016, four years ago, one day after his 17th birthday, Harambe passed away. We lost him. I know. It rips open a new wound, but I just wanted you to take a moment and perhaps bow your head for Harambe. Okay. All right, I need a favor from our...

From our listeners, from our influencers, from our ambassadors in Germany. I don't know if you've seen the pictures of the Burger King Crown. We all have the cardboard Burger King Crown that they give away. But in Germany, they have a new Burger King Crown that is the six-footer that will create that social distancing crown and it is absolutely awesome so if you're in Germany

and you're listening to chewing the fat and you are an influencer and you can bribe me to become an ambassador you can bribe me by sending me a Burger King giant crown that's all I'm saying a bribe will

be taken I want one of these desperately. So you want to become an ambassador under the wire. There won't be any votes. No special meetings. You just get the gig as soon as I received the Burger King Crown. That's just the deal. That's the way it is.

Yesterday was I was bummed. I canceled the launch. I was into it. I was watching it. I was enjoying it. I was ready to go. the astronauts were all ready to go and then no launch

very sad but I told you yesterday that Elon showed up and he was he got to you know he met the astronauts of course they had the mass on like I said and they kept their social distances and the

launch cancellation was really I mean it was like putting a knife in everybody's heart but they're going to try to relaunch or I said relaunch try to have a launch on Saturday at 3.22 p.m. Eastern. So let's hope that it happens. But Elon was there, and he did speak to the press. And it was kind of cool. It was kind of cool. This is a dream come true, I think, for me and everyone at SpaceX.

This is not something that I ever thought would actually happen. So we're in starting SpaceX in 2002. I really did not think this day, would occur. I expected 90% chance would fail to even get to a low orbit with a small rocket. So somebody told me in 2002 that I'd be standing here with NASA administrator, meeting the astronauts, and the rocket spacecraft on PATH 39A, the best pad in the world, which is an honor to be there. I would have thought, man, I don't know what you're talking, but it's not. Like, no way. No. right kind of cool kind of cool uh anyway the launch is going to be saturday and uh if you're excited

as many of us are uh saturday at 322 p m eastern it was kind of cool NASA covered the I mean the entire coverage all day long I guess they're starting at 11 Eastern on Saturday but they had former astronauts and oh I mean it was really cool so if you have a chance to watch the stream at the NASA site, it's well worth your time if you're excited about the launch at all. Of course, we have, you know, news about a scam that you should be made aware of. Police are saying, don't click on the link. That's probably a pretty good advice for most links that you receive on your phone, or on your tablet that you don't know where they come from.

That's probably a good idea. But you're getting a text now that says, someone who came in contact with you tested positive or has shown symptoms for COVID-19 and recommends you self-isolate, get tested, more at, and the link is a COVID-19-a-N-com slash alert. and they're saying do not click on that link so and it sounds you know kind of legitimate especially with our contact tracers uh apps and people knocking on our doors saying you've come in contact

with someone have you been sick and every doctor's office is asking you have you have you been in a city that someone has been sick in have you been in a state a county where someone has been sick with COVID-19. I mean, just know where your links are coming from. You know what? You can quote me on that. Know where your links are coming from. No, seriously, know where your links are coming from. So, Jack Dorsey, CEO of Twitter, he is picking a fight with the president of the United States. states, Donald Trump. And I would say, good luck with that, Jack. The president is expected to an executive order about Twitter.

And, you know, he's angry at Twitter. I don't know, do we need, you know, we talked a little bit yesterday about that. Does he need to, you know, are we making new rules and new laws over that? I don't think so. But Jack Dorsey said, leave our employees out of this. He's tired. He's tired because we, you know, we as in people that are critical of Twitter's choices at what they take down and what they don't take down and what they say is factual and what they say is incorrect. We took issue with a little bit of their head of sight integrity, who is definitely, you know, anti-Trump, anti-conservative. And he claims, look, there's someone accountable for our accident of the company, it's me.

Okay, so he wants to, you know, be the man. Well, he is the man. Good. And now he's, you know, picking a fight with the president over, you know, over tweets. Jack, good luck. I know. I get it. It's your company and you've got, you know, you've signed the deal.

And, you know, you want to stick up for your employees. And you think that your boy, Yol Roth, head of sight integrity, is, you know, know, it's one thing. He can be, you know, integral in the Twitter hierarchy, but it's okay if he, you know, puts his tweet out there and talks about, you know, how horrible Donald Trump is. And yet he's supposed to be completely down the middle when we're, when we're fact-checking for the different tweets, right?

But if you're, look, if you're taking the heat, take the heat. But I think you're picking the, you're picking a war with the wrong guy. Good luck. It's going to be interesting to watch. It's going to be fun to watch. I mean, really, you know, do you pick up and take your toys to another sandbox? Is there another sandbox that Donald could go to? I'm sorry, President Trump, could go to that would, that would equal Twitter.

I don't know. You know, there's plenty of people that will post this, you know, this platform and that platform and go here and go here and do this and do that. But none have really taken off. Does he pick one? And then everybody goes to that site to simply follow the president? It's possible. I mean, if anyone can do it and make a...

platform, a new go-to platform for social media accounts. It's him. So I think Jack is picking a battle that he doesn't really want to have. Good luck. It's going to be interesting, though. I can't wait to watch the battle take place and unfold because it'll just be fun. It'll just be fun. That's all.

You know what else is fun? I found out something new. I didn't know existed. You know, we've all heard about re-gifting. Re-gifting. You get something, somebody gives you something, and you think, I've already got it. You say thank you, and it's a wonderful thing. Thanks.

I appreciate it. And you take it home, and then, you know, it sits in the closet. And so some night you realize, oh, man, we got to go to this party, and we should bring a gift. And we don't have anything. We haven't run to the store. We haven't ordered anything. Amazon can't drop it off in two minutes yet.

And so what do we? Oh, I know. We've got that gift that we had given to us. It's in the closet. We'll just rewrap that, throw it in a bag, and we'll give it to Amy and Joe tonight. And they, you know, maybe they'll like it. They'll like it.

And it's just re-gifting. And you just, it's fine, right? Well, now, you could do that with kids. I bet you didn't know that. I didn't either. I wish I had known this earlier. So there's a YouTube couple that is getting hammered for rehoming their adopted autistic son, Huxley. Now, re-holming is something I guess I didn't know existed.

I mean, I kind of heard it before. People have, you know, that are, you know, that are, you know, that adopt children, then they adopt them and maybe they realize it was too much. Although I haven't heard it happen very often. Most people who adopt children that, you know, have special needs, have a, you know, a huge heart. And they take on the struggle out of their love for the kid. No question. And the struggle cannot.

be too hard because that's what they're in it for for that kid no matter no matter what the struggle is but apparently a YouTuber I guess it's Mika Micah Mika Mika Mika M-Y-K-A Stoffer I have I apologize I have not it's not a go-to YouTube site for me like chewing the fat with Jeff Fisher is and it should be a go-to site for you as well on YouTube. So you should go there and subscribe and click the notification bell. But her and her husband James brought in their little kid and they adopted it and they made a big deal about the adoption, right? And they loved it. And they love this big crazy family. It wouldn't change a thing about it. They got new sponsors. They had people coming to their

YouTube site and they made money on their YouTube site. That's what they were doing their YouTube and Instagram and social media accounts for to make money that's what happens you become an influencer on these sites and you make money that's why it's such a big deal when other YouTube channels get cut back get shadow pat-band all of it it's just it it's a deal people are in it for the money I know big surprise so made a big deal. I got it. Then, all of a sudden, they just,

Huxley just disappeared. Didn't show up anymore in any of the YouTube videos. And I guess Huxley was too much. So they finally gave an update and people were asking about it. And they said that they came to the brutal decision. After discovering there were a lot more special needs that we were. we were just not aware of. Do I feel like a failure as a mom?

Yes. You know, of course, 500%. Is that possible to be 500% failure? Anyway, people are mad at them for doing this. They adopted the autistic child from China. And I guess you can just give them back. I guess you just rehome them. I don't know how you do it.

You just call up the adoption company and say, come and get your kid. We're tired of them. It got too hard. It just got too hard. So, take it back. That's fine. And, you know, everybody's mad at them and wanted, you know,

I got to give them money back? What money? You went there on your own accord, and they made deals to, you know, have sponsors and got views on their side. But they did use the kid as, draw point. So,

that's a tough call. I'm okay. You know, I'm okay with, I get the whole, let's use the family, and we're going to bring in the kid. But the rehoming, you get tired of it?

Just set it back. Yeah, we just got tired of the kid. You know, man, we brought them in. Sure, we loved them. Sure, we did. Yeah, we brought them in. We loved them.

And we wanted you to be part of our family, too and thanks for coming on and sure we got some new sponsors and sure we made a bunch of money but you know what it just got too hard we just couldn't do it looking at it from the kid's standpoint i guess good right i mean maybe he ends up in a better place than just being used as this you know youtube clown for the family oh yeah there's our there's our little autistic child over there on the corner. Look at him so you can... And speaking of him, look, this is a sponsor for

the YouTube show. I don't know, maybe it's better for the kid. Right? I mean, let's hope and pray that it's better for the kid now. And he's found a place that actually will love him and take care of him and is not so concerned about

the struggle like, you know, like the Stauffers. Know what I'm saying? What else is happening in the world? What else is happening in the world? Oh, I know. We're burning cities.

We're burning cities down in memory of George Floyd. Ryan, that's got to be why. That's got to be why we're burning cities down and looting businesses and just taking our stuff in memory. Look, we're so pissed that a police officer and police officers really killed George Floyd. And I can't tell you, it's agonizing, right, that this guy died and how he died. And I hope, as I said yesterday, I hope the officers are absolutely thrown in jail and tried for murder and accessories to murder. And I will say that the Heritage Foundation had a great post because, you know, everyone supports law enforcement, or at least everyone, you know,

chewing the fat in particular. No one supports the police more than we do, but you know what I mean, right? I mean, you support the police department. You try to. And the Heritage Foundation Post says law enforcement officers have incredibly difficult jobs and generally deserve the benefit of the doubt. I'll give you that. Society often fails to fully appreciate the challenges and complexities faced by police officers

on a daily basis. Even the most mundane calls can turn deadly in quite literally the blink of an eye. Well, no kidding, and we see evidence of that very often.

But sometimes, as an officer's actions are so grotesque, cruel, or mind-boggling, that the benefit of the doubt no longer can be extended, sometimes it isn't a matter of waiting for more information because no additional information

ever could justify what the public has witnessed. And the death of the death of the matter, of George Floyd was simply injustice and we must not tolerate. Amen. Heritage Foundation. Amen. I'm with you. And we talked about

the same thing yesterday how it can't be tolerated. I mean, it amazed me that the other police officers and the one in particular in the video, and if you haven't seen it, I understand why you don't want to see it. And it's not,

the sad thing is, is you know, we're used to seeing at least I am anyway, we're used to seeing people get shot get beat up horrifically and you feel so terrible. This is a process of this police officer with his knee on this guy's throat

and he's begging, it's just horrific. Just horrific. And not one of the other police officers went over and said, dude, get up, let's get him in the car. All right, man, that's enough. Get up. We'll get him in the car. Not one.

It was just horrible. But, now we're so angry we're so mad we're going to loot stores we're going to burn down stores we're going to take merchandise that doesn't

belong to us because George Floyd was killed that I do not understand that mentality of rioting and civil disorder I do not understand it makes absolutely no sense.

A bad thing because of a bad thing. And we are so pissed that George Floyd was killed, was murdered by police officers. We're going to just dare you to try to arrest us as we take stuff from stores, from other people's businesses. It's just incredible. It's an incredible mindset. I don't understand it. All right, let's go to the break room. I need to drink a Coca-Cola Zero Sugar desperately.

social media as well at Jeffrey JFR on Twitter, you know, for as long as Twitter is around. And Facebook and Instagram, Jeff Fisher Radio. A lot of information in the entertainment business today. Really, we found out, as you well know, I mean, I am fashion, clearly. That's, you know, no question about that. But Gucci has now called fashion shows a worn-out. ritual. The creative director, Alessandro Michel, has announced that the brand is permanently abandoning the traditional fashion calendar as the industry rethinks how it operates in the light of

COVID-19. By desegregating menswear and women's wear and shunning mid-season collections, the Italian luxury label will reduce the number of yearly shows at stages from five to two. Oh, so we're still going to have them. That's nice. In a series of diary entries titled Notes from the Silence, posted to Michelle's Instagram account, the designer said he intended to abandon the worn-out ritual of seasonalities and shows in order to regain winter. I think these are stale and underfed words. Oh, isn't that special?

so we'll still get a fashion show and Gucci's trying to still, you know, hang on to what they got. Good luck. Good luck. They've, you know, I love the fashion shows. You know, of course, they gain all kinds of news with their fashion shows because most of their stuff is, it ain't for you and me. It isn't for you and me. It isn't for, you know, if you're going to, if you're going to charge into a target,

and take what you want because you're mad, you probably aren't wearing Gucci. I don't know. Maybe you are. I'm just, it's just a guess. Just a guess.

So, speaking of iTunes or, you know, Apple, they just landed a big deal. Martin Scorsese movie starring

Leonardo DiCaprio and Robert De Niro. I mean, that's got to be. There's three guys. that I like their work, but, oh my gosh, as a human being outside of their work, all three of those guys, especially, especially Robert DeCaro. And DiCaprio comes in a pretty close second. You know, he's not, he's not as bad as Robert DeNiro.

De Niro is the worst. And I just, I love their work, but I cannot take their personal stuff. I just can't. it's harder and harder for me to get past it. I do. I do. It takes me longer and longer to watch a movie with De Niro in it because I have to talk myself into, just forget about the personal stuff, just forget about the personal

stuff, just watch the movie, get yourself into the movie, just forget about the personal stuff. Just forget about the personal stuff, okay? That's all you got to do is just forget about the personal stuff and watch the movie. Okay, and then click play. and you're good to go. So, no problem. No problem.

Congratulations to Apple, though, for doing that. I mean, look, there's all kinds of stuff going on. Netflix is actually starting to film again in Iceland and Sweden. And, you know, I'm all four of the Iceland and Sweden detective shows. Some of those detectives are great. I don't care what language you're speaking. If you're a crazy, out of control, genius detective. I'm all for it.

I'm with you. I don't care what you're speaking. No problem. I'm with you. But they started filming and of course they have the new world order of lists how you film in today's world. You have voluntary testing for COVID-19. You have temperature tests every morning.

You have self-quarantining for 14 days before shooting. you're isolating with crew for the duration of the two weeks shoot boxed meals instead of buffets that's got to be hard to take single use disposable makeup applicators visual effects swapped in for some live scenes okay i mean all right fine whatever and did you see where uh the ghost busters uh reboot director uh and you know the ghost busters uh the ghost buster's uh reboot director uh and you know the ghost but the spent with Melissa McCarthy and Christian Way and Kate McCann, Leslie Jones. And the movie was actually, you know, kind of agonizing. But it earned 229 million bucks. Over 229 million, a worldwide box office. Now, they expected, and, you know, just because you expect something doesn't mean you're going to get it. You can quote me on that, too, by the way.

Just because you expect something, doesn't mean you're going to get it. They expected to get at least 500 million on the movie. movie and they only got 229.1 million on the movie. The director blamed the anti-Hillary Clinton movement for adding to the backlash that caused his Ghostbusters reboot to underwhelm at the box office. Now, it couldn't be that the movie sucked and nobody cared about the four women as the Ghostbusters, couldn't be that at all. It couldn't be that it wasn't, it was trying too hard to be funny.

And not like the other Ghostbusters movies, couldn't be that at all. It had to be the anti-Hillary Clinton movement that caused the movie to not reach what they hoped it would reach. Okay. All right. No problem. And Mike Tyson all over the news. I love the fact that Tyson's all over the news. Of course, he's signing a new deal to fight.

He's been working out. He's been fighting. And, you know, so he wants to keep that image up. So he's out promoting himself. And he said that drinking, eating, and having sex to excess were reasons for his financial downfall in 2003. He bought mansions, fast cars, bengletire. Tigers, you know, before filing for bankruptcy, only $23 million. Orgies.

I was crazy. I was so sick. I had no idea I was so sick. I bought a lot of cars for girls, too. Oh, okay. Well, then he became a millionaire again. He's got, he's only worth about, this is sad. I don't know how he lives.

He's only worth about $3 million right now, you know, after paying everything off. And he's got, he's only worth about $3 million. So he's going to be worth a lot more if he starts fighting again. And I guess that came to his, I guess that was the deal from like he realized, maybe if I fight again, even for charity, I can, I can make a little money, you know, like 20 million. So he bought a 40-acre marijuana farm. He's got his podcast, hot boxing, which I bet is wonderful. But this is what he was talking about on hot boxing.

He said that he's been reflecting on his lifestyle, which, He just couldn't live and keep up with today. He said, you can't F girls. You know, if your kids are listening, just know that we're going to get into adult words. I won't say the words, but it's an adult story. It's a big guy. It's a big guy story.

All right. We should have some sort of big guy story sounder. But Mike went on to say, you can't F girls like he used to when you were young. You can't be having bees around. like you do when you were young. They F up money. I didn't know that.

They were fun then, but when you're older, they ain't fun no more. F and all day ain't fun no more. You want some F and money. You know what I mean. Of course, duh. Of course we know what you mean, Mike.

He went on, giving people money like F and everybody, party with everybody, and Fing their mothers and their sisters and their cousins. I orgies. I was crazy. I was so sick I had no idea. I was so sick. I bought a lot of cars for girls too. I was out of control. Drinking, gorging on food, effing women. You know how it is. I could, look, Mike, I understand. I understand. It's tough. It's tough to get by. And sometimes you just have to do what you have to do, right? And when you have to, you have to give up. You can quote me on that too, Mike, if you want.

Sometimes you just have to do what you have to do. But again, another quote, this is like quote Thursday on chewing the fat. Once you're in it, you're in it. And that could be used for many reasons. But since we're talking about Mike and his struggles, you know, once you're in it, you're in it. All right, before we get to the coronavirus numbers, I just wanted to remind you that coming up on the podcast version of chewing the fat today, I've got some stuff, some, some, some houses and some other merchandise that is for sale, that you can get at a good price now that we're coming out of the pandemic window. So for the coronavirus cases worldwide, we have 5,800. 46,538 total worldwide cases.

As of this recording, 359,529 deaths globally. Here in the United States, we have 5,846,538 cases. No, that's worldwide. Here in the United States, duh. I do that every day. USA, 1,753,212 total cases here in the United States. America, 102,556 total deaths at the time of this recording. Now, has China, scroll down here and see if China has crossed over the mystical 83,000 total

case mark as of today, and as of this recording, the answer to that would be no. 82,995 total cases in China. Now, they're still recording cases because as of right now, there is two new cases. So it's good that they have the two new cases that we're getting there. I'm not sure when we're going to cross over that 83,000 threshold. Maybe, uh, I mean, this weekend, I don't know. I don't want to be the guy in China. that has to be the one to report we're over 83,000.

Let's just be clear about that. Through the TSA checkpoint numbers yesterday, 261, 170 people through the turnstiles at the TSA checkpoints. So are we back or aren't we back? I mean, it doesn't look like we're back at all. American Airlines says they're going to cut. management and support staff by 30%. Wow. And we also have Boeing,

cutting more than 12,000 jobs via layoffs and buyouts. And that's what's happening at American Airlines as well. So, I mean, it's still not pretty. We have 2.1 million jobless claims reported this last. week, which makes the total nearly 41 million jobless claims since the beginning of the pandemic. So we've got that going for us. I mean, that's really, you know, and we've, I know talked about it before, but I believe that it's more than that because so many people were independent contractors that aren't even part of

that deal. Anyway, sad. Now we do have people trying to do things and create things that will help in our need to see sports and participate in sports. Japan has a new remote cheerer system developed by the Japanese firm Yamaha, which allows fans following the match on TV, radio or online entourage to via their smartphone. They can be right players, cheer, boo, their voices used around the stadium in real-time loud speakers. And they test it. They have 58 speakers set up among the empty seat.

You don't get to question the referee's eyesight, however. Or, you know, it's going to be kind of weird. I don't know how you do that. I mean, Denmark is trying to have giant screens set up with Zoom. so that you have all these people watching the game and cheering on Zoom. Okay. How do you handle the audio with that in the virtual stands? And, I mean, I kind of like the idea, I guess.

It's kind of cool. And it, you know, definitely is part of the social distance plan. But I don't know how you, I don't know how you do the audio. You know, you have 10,000 people with their microphone on. Okay. Or more? Or more?

I mean, you just kind of have to have separate screens, right? You have to call in. You can zoom and watch the game from screen, you know, screen 25. And 25 has separate audio from all the different screens have separate audio. I guess that's how you do it. I mean, you know, you have different. screens, different Zoom numbers, different audio from those screens, and, you know, people monitoring that audio and bringing it up and bringing it down as needed throughout the game. I guess.

I guess that's how you would do it. Okay. I guess for now, until we're allowed to, until we're allowed back into the stadium. Okay. And good news coming from the sex worker audience. I know. Look, I know it's been tough on you. I get it. People have been in lockdown. You're trying to, you know, social distance. People have not been out on the streets. You're still trying to make a living. You have to make a living too. I know that.

So the Swiss sex workers have decided that they are going, and they and all their colleagues do service clients and not spread. the coronavirus, okay? They're going to, you know, they've drafted some new guidelines. And remember we had the New York City guidelines when the pandemic started. And we had Dr. Fauci telling us that, you know, it was okay to use Tinder if, you know, you wanted to accept the risk of using Tinder during this time of need.

Well, the Swiss sex workers have, new guidelines and they they've decided since they had a temporary ban on prostitution which I mean you talk about getting ugly in Switzerland over COVID-19 so now that the guy now that the ban is over they decided that doggy style and reverse cowgirl are ways to not

mitigates the risk contracting COVID-19. So at least we're trying to help. At least we're trying to help. Thank you, Swiss sex workers. Thank you. And the pizza business had some good news. So, you know, we end the show, pre-podcast version, the full version of the show,

with some good news. Papa Johns announced that North America, American same-store sales surged 33.5% during May, which topped April's 26.9 jump. They're very happy at Papa John's. People are ordering pizza and having it delivered to their house. And Domino's said same-store sales over the first two months of the quarter increased 14%. Not as much as Papa John's, but still increased, right? So that's good news. good news we're right isn't it good news i mean i know that we had uh we had the study that showed

that half of americans fear they'll never get their pre-coronavirus body back we're supposed to be good news so we're ordering pizza sales are thriving and we're fear that we're never going to get our pre-coronavirus body back. So I'm guessing that if you've been ordering Papa Johns, that is true. Nearly two-thirds of Americans feel they've been eating more unhealthy foods compared to just a few months ago. All right. They're saying that the average adult was put on five pounds since the beginning of the quarantine. I could do five pounds standing on my hands.

So one of the emails that I get every day has their little question and answer answer trivia section. And today I thought, wow, that's interesting that the price. So they're asking about a house for sale in Potomac, Maryland. So it's a gated estate on four acres in Potomac, Maryland. Maryland. Okay. And they're asking, you know, for you to guess how much the house is. You have seven bedrooms, eight baths in the main house, two bedroom, one bath in the guest house, and a pool house with a full kitchen and bath. Lighted tennis court and a heated pool. Plus the basement and the picture of the basement is really cool. Features an, you know, they're calling it an epic party space, but it's modeled after a 1900s era Georgetown Street and some of the doors of the streetscape actually open to, you know, the garage and other little, you know, spaces. But the main part of the, it looks like the Georgetown Street, really cool, really cool.

So I'm thinking of that, wow, that's got to be what? 10 million, right? I mean, off the top of my head, I would guess 10 million. 4.5 million. I mean, that's a deal. That's a coronavirus deal right there. Gated estate, four acres in Maryland, seven bedrooms, eight baths in the main house,

two bedrooms, one bath in the guest house, a pool house with a full kitchen and bath, tennis court with lights, heated pool, the Georgetown Street basement, and the garage? I mean, come on. That's a steal at $4.5 million. I should be selling that. For $4.5 million? Come on now.

That's a deal. Now, Stallone is selling his place, his La Quinta home. which the actor bought for, how much did he buy me? I don't forget how much he paid for this place. It says so, but he's got a house in the Coachella Valley that he's selling for $3.35 million. Okay, so it's a private residential community. It's got its own clubhouse and golf course. You know, Chris Jenner, Cindy Crawford.

Apparently they call the community home. I don't think Stallone calls this home. I think this is just a dump he owns that he bought a long time ago. Now, I don't know. It seems $3.35 million for this place. Okay. If you say so. Now, he bought it 10 years ago for $4.5 million.

All right. So he's been trying to unload this now for a while. That's a dump. It's down to $3.35. Okay. So this house has four bedrooms, walk-in closet, multiple terraces, and a fountain-fed pool. What a dump. No wonder.

And a clubhouse and a golf course. And no wonder, he can't even get $3.35 million. He got ripped off, too. That's when he had a bunch of money. Of course, he still does. He had a bunch of money. Doesn't care. Just bought the place and then realized, ooh.

I don't like this place. It's a Spanish colonial style. It's a stucco walls. The terracotta roof. It's got some private terraces. It's got the big, you know, double door open. The vaulted ceilings. The chandeliers.

Yeah, sure, it's got a, you know, an adjacent kitchen with a large stone and wood island. But I noticed the kitchen, the picture of the kitchen, which is a beautiful kitchen. But it doesn't have, you know how it's got two stoves. It's got a six burner. a four-burner stove, but above it, it's got the fans going up, but it doesn't have the water.

I know. I know what you're thinking. Well, a dump. That's what I'm thinking. A dump. If you're going to have a big, you know, cooking area, don't you want the faucet over your stoves? Of course you do.

I mean, what kind of dump is this place? He spends zero time at this place. He bought it. He's been trying to unload it since he bought it because he's, bought it and he realized, Sherrod had a fire pit in a spa and a fountain-fed pool and all that stuff, but I can't. It's got four bedrooms, five bathrooms.

It only has 4,889 square feet. Ha! I mean, you talk about a dump for $3.35 million. Okay. All right. I mean, if you want to spend it, good. I would rather buy the place in Maryland. You don't have the California weather.

but the place in Maryland is much better. And Tom Brady also trying to sell offload of something that he had specially made for him. His Cadillac Escalade. It's an SUV. He had it specially redone. And, you know, it's a Cadillac SUV. It's really pretty. Silver.

It's got the extended doors. He apparently loved it. it's got it's a lot bigger it's stretched by 20 inches the rear doors are by 10 inches longer

so it's got the roof also is raised by 5 inches and enforced with steel support ribbing so it exceeds the US federal safety standards

and crush resistant laws while providing optimal rear passenger headroom this isn't just an SUV so and it's beautiful inside I know, holy cow. It was beautiful.

It's got a custom-made seating, two six-way electric reclining VIP seats, electric legrest, two large aviation-style folding tables, Burlwood finish, 32-inch HD LCD screen, a rear 12-inch screen because, you know,

the 32-inch isn't enough. And it's got a mobile internet router, which allows for multiple service providers. I mean, it's nice. and apparently he, you know, was really happy with it, and, you know, he took great care of it. And, you know, he claimed that it would always be part of the family so much so that he's getting, you know, he's offloading the, the clunker.

He's selling his, his SUV, the 2017 Cadillac Escalade, you know, specially formatted for $300,000. So if you want to, you want to drive, around in luxury with your entire family in the SUV that was once owned and designed by Tom Brady you can get that for $300,000 you might be able to walk up to Tom with maybe I don't know 250,000 cash is to say you know hey here's there's 250,000 cash I'll drive it away Tom might let you get away with that I don't know though I'm not promising anything I haven't Talk to Tom about it.
