And now a Blaze Media podcast.
Welcome to Chewing the Fat.
Today could be a day that is a battle between men and women.
between meat eaters and non-meaters.
If you believe this story that was posted on Reddit, posted,
I am the A.H.
Who said he started a meat eating club at his job in response to a co-worker's vegan-only club.
I mean, I'm saying good.
Now apparently the colleagues
started a vegan dinner club exclusively
for co-workers
who were vegan,
vegetarian, and pescatarian.
Now other workers
will not be able to
join the club.
That's what the group said.
Now in response to that,
a co-worker started a meat-eating
burger and steak club
to try out new restaurants each week.
Only meat eater
are allowed to join.
That meant the vegan club got butt hurt,
and they complained to HR.
According to this, the meat club was approved,
and now the women, and I'm sure they're not all women,
but maybe, in the vegan club refuses to talk to him.
I would say that would be worth it.
To me, that would be worth it.
So today is, I mean, I guess we could call it Buther Day.
But, oh, oh my gosh, I just said it again.
So sorry.
So there was a video posted on, well, I saw it on Twitter.
I'm sure it was posted on other social media accounts as well.
But I saw it posted from a mother ducker at House and Hens.
And it captioned a man, question mark, never heard of him with, you know, a couple of emojis.
And then the video is there.
And the video is what I believe to be two females remodeling a room.
And they do a great job.
And it was a cool video.
It was, you know, start to end or start to finish however you want to, you know, complete the video.
And then the producer of this program, Chris Cruz, started a fight.
And the fight continues as we speak here on chewing the fat.
I don't know why you hate so much.
I haven't.
No, I did not pick a fight at all.
I was just doing some society observation
that why do we need to bring yourself up
by bringing someone else down?
That is what I was pointing out.
Because if you watch the video,
what was the quote?
What was a quote under the video?
I don't remember.
It was men who needs them.
Well, yeah, okay.
I mean, that's the same as her, you know, caption that started the post with a man, never heard of them.
Never heard of them, yeah.
And all I pointed was that while we're bringing men down, she did a great job.
And by the way, I was looking at my house and I was like, you know what?
I bet that would look good here too.
She showed me how to do it.
You know, you just need a couple of woods and a saw.
And paint and tape.
I mean, it looked real easy.
It was one of those easy remodel jobs.
It wasn't like a difficult remodel job.
And I'm the sexist one.
So you're telling me that she can do a difficult job?
No, I guess maybe she could.
I'm just saying this appeared to be one of the easier one.
Okay.
But all I'm saying is that now I offended the entire female population of Twitter.
And how their day, how their day come against.
me a non-male person and assume my gender identity to be a man because I pointed something out.
I mean, you were just pointing out why bring people? Why bring things down?
What? Hey, how about you let you work speak for itself?
Build people up. Absolutely. And no. And then she started to do this whole, well, whatever she is,
whatever it is.
She started to do this whole thing of like,
well,
I thought you wanted,
I think you expect a woman to just stand there and clean ovens.
And I was like,
wait,
that's not even the right comeback.
Usually people that make those comments are the ones that wonder why,
what,
pregnant and barefoot in the kitchen.
Not cleaning the oven.
Hey,
it's 2020.
Ovens cleans by themselves.
They still have to,
I mean, you still expect the woman of the house to oversee it to make sure it was done.
Yes, but you're not in there with some elbow grease in a towel.
Why by the way?
By the way, I mean, we put a clock on the top of the stone for a reason.
Absolutely.
Why do you think, Fisher?
And I know, did you fix your washer and dryer?
Yeah, no.
No, okay.
I mean, it's fixed, but I didn't do it.
Yeah, oh, so you got them fixed.
Okay, good.
See?
I have a woman.
Making America great again by creating jobs.
That's what I do.
But why do you think that all these dryers have this beautiful noise when they're done?
D-do-do-do-do-do-do-do.
It's not because a guy is doing the laundry.
It's because it's something sweet that a female's like,
Aww, look at that.
The dry's calling me.
The laundry's done.
I've got to go full now.
Yeah.
I get it.
I understand.
I just don't understand why everybody's getting all but hurt.
Yeah.
Because, by the way, if all these females are so, oh, but she was talking about tongue and cheek,
why not give me the benefit of the doubt that I was just also doing it by tongue and cheek?
but not because I'm a man
well they perceive me as a man
they need to bring me down even more
like my Twitter notifications
are just of these
feminists and their cutesy little
outfits and that's all I see
just faces of girls
and one of them was like
oh let's pray for their wives
I'm like yes
let's pray but I don't have a wife
have a husband.
So next time,
thank you.
And I must say,
I can go through the,
you know,
the big boss man,
male,
female hierarchy jokes,
you know,
from here to the end of time.
Right.
But I want to be clear
about something.
And I mean this
with all of my heart.
My wife,
who identifies as a female,
by the way,
she loves
power tools,
fixing stuff.
Dude, your wife is more of a man than you are.
Well, I didn't say that.
No, okay, then I will say it.
Your wife is more of a man than you are.
And I am happy about it.
If being a man, by the way, I was forced as a child
to learn how to use all power tools, measure, build, paint, all of it.
If being a man means or being less of a man.
I guess means that my wife has to build things and destroy things and work on things,
then you know what?
Have at it.
Have at it.
By the wife.
My wife was the one that painted my son's room.
I don't do that.
Yeah, I can't do.
No, I'm so.
And you cannot say to me that in this program, we belittle women.
We empower women in this show.
Yesterday, your podcast was all about empowering woman.
And then before that, me too.
We were empowering women and telling them, hey, next time saying no, and don't come back.
Thank you.
There's no other show out there that empowers women, support women, more than this program.
I mean, that's clear.
That's a fact.
I mean, facts are facts.
You can't argue with facts.
Well, I mean, you could.
You can argue with facts with your little feelings, but it doesn't work.
So today, for those of you listening live on the 12th of August 2020, I did my Pat Gray on Leashed Chewing the Fat segment.
And it is, I mentioned that it's World Elephant Day.
So there's 420,000 African elephants left on the planet, according to the stat that I saw.
and there's 30,000 Asian elephants left on the planet, according to the stat that I saw.
Now, what I don't understand is they made a big deal in Singapore about destroying ivory.
All right?
So they destroyed $13 million worth of ivory to celebrate World Elephant Day.
I don't understand.
There's a picture of the big grinder that they're throwing the ivory into and it's just grinding it up nine tons worth of elephant ivory.
To me, wouldn't it be better to sell it as a reminder of the horrific thing that taking ivory from elephant?
is bad. I just don't understand why you just destroy it. I mean, if we're just use the ivory
for whatever you're supposed to use it for. I mean, I'm not sure it's some kind of, I guess it's
some kind of special little thing. I'm not sure what? Am I supposed to eat the ivory? And that's
some sort of medicinal purpose. I get, my life is better with, with ivory. So,
I need to have ivory in my life.
I need to have ivory dust sprinkled on everything that I do.
I guess that's bad.
But why destroy it?
It's just weird to me.
Anyway, happy, happy, happy world elephant day.
Also, there's some new recalls that we need to discuss.
You know, we talked the other day about the onions that are being recalled.
Well, more onions are being recalled as we speak.
the Salmonella outbreak linked to those onions.
43 states and Canada.
Now prompting the recall from the producer in California, 640 reported salmonella cases.
85 hospitalizations tied to the outbreak.
Wow.
Utah with 90 cases, Oregon, 85, California, 76, Montana, 52.
There's been 41 cases reported in Illinois.
239 cases reported in Canada with 29 hospitalizations.
So stay away from those onions, the red onions, and anything really,
I mean, they're telling you the food safety processor.
I'm sorry, he's not a processor.
I'm sorry, Mr. Weidman, Martin Weidman.
He's a food safety professor at Cornell University.
He recommended, don't consume the onions, even if they've been cooked,
because of cross-contamination with utensils may have occurred.
So if you even just come close to these onions, you're probably going to die.
But there's a new recall now on red bee potatoes, lemons, limes, organic limes, Valencia oranges,
Listeria.
Okay.
What is happening?
I mean, they've got two pound mesh bags, three pound mesh bags, 20 pound mesh bags, 40 pound mesh bags, 50 pound mesh bags of the wholesale bulk red potatoes.
Could have Listeria.
I mean, just stay away from all food.
I guess that's the, we had the beef ground beef recall, 38,000 pounds.
Now we've got red onions recall, and because they could have touched anything, they may have touched anything in the.
their path, don't eat anything that they
may have touched. Now we have
all of red be potatoes, lemons,
lemons, organic limes, Valencia, oranges,
and they all have potential
hysteria on them. Coming
from
North Carolina, Pennsylvania,
South Carolina, Virginia,
wow. I mean, be careful
out there. Be careful what you eat.
Fisher, let's not forget the
backyard poultry,
I think you called it. Oh, yeah.
Yeah, but
Yes, that was with the red onions
The salmabinilla
Because of the people who were touching their chickens
Yeah
So there's that
So at the end of the day
I know who is behind all this
Oh no
Beyond meat
An Impossible Burger
I mean they are starting to struggle a little bit these days
And they just made a
great value pack for people that could not afford, you know, the big...
What are you advertising for them now?
I may own some stock.
Oh my gosh.
You know, I may own some stock, but, you know, if you go to your favorite Kroger,
you might found a great value pack that now you, the commoner, can afford.
That's nice of them.
Absolutely.
That's not to look.
It's important that the unwashed masses are able to enjoy what the upper echelon enjoys from time to time.
Yes, which is fake meat.
But who among us hasn't said, man, those elitists, man, they eat and eat some good food.
I want to try some.
Wait, wait, no, never mind.
Never mind.
I'll stay down here with a commoners and eat my red meat.
meat with what is it samanella listeria which one has the ground beef the ground beef is
salmonella and then uh the the fruits and potatoes are listeria so and then the the chickens
i mean if you're out hugging your chickens backyard poultry by the way i don't want to say
stroke in your chicken you could get in trouble i want to say it but i don't want to give him credit
but backyard poultry that's a great band name oh yeah backyard poultry that would be
that is a good band.
That is a good band name.
Yeah, I like it.
I like it.
In fact, I mean, somebody, you know,
somebody about like our man, Cam Newton.
Okay.
He could, you know, start a whole new podcast.
Yeah.
Backyard poultry.
And you mean his brother, Cam Edwards, right?
Not Cam Edwards.
And what did I say, Cam Newton?
They're the football.
I'm thinking football.
Yeah.
Because we just got, for those of you listening live,
I'm thinking football, you know, college football, Big 10 or Big 12, whatever, and the PAC 12 decided no college football this year.
And the Big 12 was having a press conference this afternoon, and everyone was really concerned that they were going to cancel the Big 12 season.
They say football's on at the big and the Big 12th.
So I don't know what the hell is going on.
So who canceled?
I thought we covered here
and they show that someone
canceled.
Yeah, the Big Ten
canceled.
So the Big Ten can't,
how many Bigs do we have?
And the Pac-12.
And the Pac-12.
There's five,
you know,
there's the Power Five conferences.
Right?
You've got the Big Ten,
the Pac-12,
the Big 12,
the Big 12, the SEC,
and the ACC.
So we still have three
Power-Five conferences
that haven't said they were stopping.
So, you know, I don't know what they're going to, they're going to end up just playing with themselves.
You can quote me out on that.
And maybe they play some away games.
Plus, part of the problem is that there's a couple of independent schools that like BYU, which is a great team and has played, you know, been playing the Power 5 conferences.
They don't belong to a conference.
So they're hoping that these conferences that are going to play.
are going to allow them to come in and play this year as well because they're ready to play.
So I don't know what, I mean, the whole thing is just screwed up.
Thanks, COVID-19.
So for those of us keeping track at home and really love football like myself, not really.
So we have five conferences, correct?
Well, five power five.
Sorry.
There's the power five conferences.
Okay, Fisher.
We have five people that say who can play football.
Shoot, man.
Out of those five, we have two that has said, you know,
one that said yes and three that are unknown
two that are you know
still it's still a goal but they haven't come out and said
for sure yeah like I said like I said two that said now
one that said yes and three unknown
because they have not made a decision
no it's not three unknown it's two
so two unknown two unknown one known
okay I don't like me maybe
Maybe.
I mean, anyway, all joking aside,
and I just, it's going to be really strange,
and I don't know whether this whole season is going to be screwed up.
Do I want college football?
Heck, yeah, I do.
I love college football.
But I don't know how they can do any of the playoffs,
any of the rankings.
And there's some teams in the PAC 12.
I don't know about the Pac-12, but the Big Ten, for sure.
that are upset that that conference is canceling.
And they're going to try to find a way to break away from their conference so that they can play.
I don't know.
Do you think that this is something that is good for the country?
Like, do we really need football?
I don't think we don't need, like, we could just skip over it.
See, that's where you're wrong, my friend.
Think of the billions.
And I do mean billions.
of dollars that are going to be lost.
Jobs, thousands, if not millions of jobs that are going to be lost
because there's no college football.
Every Saturday, every Saturday, stadiums around this country
put people to work and create jobs so that Americans can come together
and spend their money and watch a game,
let alone the television market money.
let alone these conferences have their apps where you just specifically watch their conference play football.
Am I going to pay for that now?
What the hell am I paying for?
Replays?
Oh, look at us back at 1988.
No?
I mean, billions of dollars.
Billions of dollars lost.
It's a frightening thing to think of the jobs lost.
from parking cars to serving soda to selling beer to hawk and popcorn whatever the case is
to stand in there at the at the stairway saying nope you sit over there to the left not down there
I mean those are those are jobs I just it's sad it's a sad time with no football
you can quote me on that
All right, let's go to the break room.
I need something cold to drink anyway.
As long as we're walking over there, I want to remind you to subscribe to chewing the fat.
If you're listening to this program right now, you're not a subscriber to the podcast.
What are you doing with your life?
There's a problem.
in your life.
And we invited all those females to listen.
So listen.
Subscribe to the podcast.
No other podcast.
You've made it this far.
And you should realize now that no other podcast in America stands for more women's rights
than this program.
Fisher,
I hate to correct you,
but I feel like not only in America,
in the world.
There is no other podcast in the world.
I was just kind of trying to downs.
out a little. No, it's fine. It's fine. But I feel like it's time for us to just grab it by the horns
and just claim it. No other podcasts in the world stand for women more than this show.
Fact. I wish I was a fact. And so just subscribe. All right. It's just that simple.
Where's your gavel? Okay, well, first, back off of me with the gavel, okay?
You said you had a gavel. Okay, so my man made me a gavel.
he made me a gavel
and it came in
it was out my desk this morning when I went in to Dupat
it's there
I brought it home
I'm going to do a YouTube video on it
oh so you do have it see I feel
I do have it okay I have it here
he sent me pictures of it
he's sent me all kinds of posts
on you know
where's the mask it wasn't delivered it was supposed to be delivered
it was delivered on Saturday it didn't get delivered
and I was like well nobody's at the studio
on Saturday. So they'll bring it back.
And they finally, it's delivered. It's delivered on Monday.
It's here. So I got a whole, you know, I told
security, just put it in my office when it comes
so that nothing happens to it.
And it's good. I love it.
It's not even open yet. I don't have it in my hands,
but I know what it looks like from the pictures.
I'm excited about it. It's going to be great.
I will have an actual gavel.
It's beautiful. I'm excited about it.
But I want to do a YouTube video of, you know,
the opening of the gavel.
Is that going to be the same YouTube video
that we're supposed to be doing for the candle?
No, it's a separate one.
Okay.
And is that also the same video YouTube
that we're supposed to do about
Trump's White House photographers?
Are those all, you know, because...
Those are separate videos.
You have a backlog.
And I've got some other stuff in the pipeline as well.
That's what I'm trying to show the audience
that there's a list and a cue list
of videos that he goes,
Hey, Chris, let's do this and I buy this stuff.
I get this stuff.
And then,
So backed up with things to do in my life.
And then he goes, yeah, we'll do it, you know, a couple of Saturdays from now and then
a couple Saturdays passes back.
So just know that we have a couple of videos on the pipeline.
Now we just added the gavel.
So I bet you the gavel takes cue number one.
Just know this too.
All right.
I already got a wife.
I don't need you yapping in my ear about we got to do this.
We do got to do this.
We have.
So now, so here's a problem.
I got it.
Here's a problem I have.
you have a gavel that was given to you for free.
I have a $120 candle that I purchased for the program that still has not been lit up.
And I have a feeling.
I have a feeling in my gut that the gavel took cue number one and my candle took cue number two.
I mean, I can't help the way you feel.
That's what I thought.
Exactly what I thought.
Absolutely.
There goes a $200 candle.
No, it's not going away.
Flushed down the toilet.
I'm about to turn it up.
I'm able to turn it on and just and do my own YouTube video and then upload it to yours.
Oh, yeah.
You know, I noticed that people have been uploading stuff all along on my, you know, Facebook pages.
Now you're talking about, now you're talking about uploading stuff to my YouTube pages.
I see someone.
That wasn't me.
I don't know who has different controls of my Facebook page, but I see, actually I do.
I know who has control of Jeff Fisher Radio
other than me
and one of those people
posted something yesterday
that I get hit from Facebook
partly false information
checked by independent fact checkers
partly false partly false partly false
and I'm like I didn't even post it
what are you talking about? I didn't even posted
so the headline is captioned John McAvey
who we've talked to on this program a couple of times
and he's a fan of the show
arrested for wearing a thong
instead of a face mask
in Norway
and yesterday
my wife comes to me and says
who's this John McAfee guy
and I was like oh well we've talked about the show
he's he's on the run
from the law right now
running for president
running for president
so we've talked to him a couple times
he's a he's a strange
eye control character
and I said he was arrested at Norway
and it's weird that he was in Norway
he's bent down on the islands
and he had his guns
taken away and stuff.
And I didn't realize that she was actually talking about a post on my own page.
Yeah, I want to take credit.
That was me.
I figured that's something that is funny since we know John personally.
And Facebook, calm down.
Calm down.
They can't.
Like, this story does not change anything.
So did I, I didn't click on.
I've got to click on C.
Y.
Yeah, C Y.
So the problem was that.
I see what they said.
The Daily Mail, according to this report, the Independent Fact Checker, the Daily Mail tried to connect the dots from a post that he had saying that he got arrested and then another post of him wearing a thong as a mask.
So the Daily Mail thought that he got arrested for wearing a thong as a mask.
Okay, so this, the information in this post is a mix of true and false statements or it could simply be incomplete.
In some cases, the information is misleading.
Factisque.
Fat, fat, F-A-K-T-I-S-K dot know.
Exactly.
Those are the people that fat-checked your Facebook message.
You know what?
I'm going to start having a fat check.
It's going to be a start of chewing the fat fat, fat check.
Ooh, that's a good segment.
All right.
Thank you.
You know what?
Right.
I put that on the queue.
That's like you
Tech millionaire
Was not arrested in Norway
For using a thong as a face mask
Oh
So we're spreading lies
Is what we're doing
We're spreading lies
Okay thanks
Factisk
No
With just Fisher
Just to let you know
Your Facebook page
Just changed the election
Because you posted
That
about John McAfee, and by you, I mean I, you changed the entire time.
This is a brand new timeline of the presidential candidacy.
Yeah, well, so be it.
I mean, Facebook already, there was a story now that they're happy about removing
7 million posts for what they claim is false COVID-19 information.
They said it removes 7 million posts in the second quarter for shit.
sharing false information about the
Nobel coronavirus, including
content that promoted fake
preventative measures and
exaggerated cures. So
do your own homework is we're doing
your homework for you. Well, not just
that. When, seriously,
and I'm not
bashing on Facebook, when
did Facebook go to college
and got a medical degree?
Oh, that doesn't matter?
No, no, no, no. Seriously.
Oh. When did it go?
couple months ago. Okay, got it.
Thank you. A couple months ago.
According to this, they removed 22.5 million posts containing hate speech.
Okay. 9.6 million in the first quarter, 8.7 million posts connected to extremist organizations compared with 6.3 million in the prior period.
So they're just picking up the pace, man. Anybody that says anything mean and hate speech, that's it. We're pulling the plug.
And we saw some of the comments, or at least I did, I don't know if we talked about it or not,
but I saw some of the comments when Facebook talked about this and when the people are asked about if they want the social media companies to, you know, do this.
They all want, oh, yes, any mention of a Nazi, any mention of this, any mention of that, any mission of this.
I mean, and it comes down to, really, now you're getting to, well, Trump should be banned.
We should ban Trump.
We should ban this person.
We should ban that person.
They've banned a bunch of people.
And some of the problem is, some of the people you think, well, you know, okay, fine, they get banned.
But I really don't want them to be banned.
I still want them to say what they're going to say.
Because now we're getting into the place where people are just going to go back into the closet.
And we know how important coming out of the closet is.
Another quote you can quote being.
So good news, I guess.
for Fox News as they were the highest rated channel in primetime 8 to 11 for all of TV in June and July.
That's incredible.
In quarter to Fox News, primetime audience grew 50% over last year.
Tucker Carlson, 8 p.m. Eastern.
top individual show on cable news.
Wow.
But Sean Hannity, not happy about that.
Keeping Fox News subject to, oh, of course, of course.
I mean, we can't talk about how good Fox News is without saying,
of course, they've been subject to allegations of sexual misconduct and toxic culture.
Advertiser boycotts and the exposure of the top writer on Carlson's show
is someone who's posted racist and sexist messages online,
but that criticism doesn't seem to.
have bothered viewers, those racist, sexist viewers.
So Americans are watching more news overall this year since there's been, you know,
I mean, with their competitors, MSNBC and CNN, those really aren't Fox News competitors.
They suck.
Those are just, you know what, MSNBC and CNN are America haters.
And I, if I realized today,
I posted not long ago if I see another reporter outside with a mask on, I'm going to do something really bad.
But I realized today that at MSNBC, it is a mandate.
Their reporters cannot report outside without a mask on.
There wasn't one report.
I happened to have watch it this morning.
It was on.
I didn't listen.
So I don't know what they were saying.
about every report that they went to for the live shot,
every reporter had a mask on.
It was just dumb.
It's just dumb.
I just don't understand it.
But apparently there was also a big story about how late night,
they were bragging up how late night shows are doing so good,
but really they're not, comparatively speaking.
You know, the numbers are, you know, they're number one,
like Kobe.
said most watched late night program to the 2019-2020 season.
Okay.
But the people watching way down.
Right?
The entire season, he had an average of 3.6 million viewers.
And Fallon didn't even have that much.
But in the past,
those numbers are
double or triple that
so while they're number one
they're number one
with a lot less people watching them
a lot less people
and they give a couple of examples
the last tonight show with Johnny Carson
50 million people
Leno's last tonight show
9 million people
and that was in 2009
So think of the drop now to where they're at with, you know, three million.
I mean, so the line nobody's watching isn't true, but it's pretty close.
Pretty close.
And I see where, mark my words, Ellen is done.
More reports of her show and her being since over.
She can't.
I don't think she can survive it.
I don't think she can't.
I was laughing at Howard Stern's advice to her.
Just become a prick.
Just become a bitch.
True.
Look at him.
He's made it work.
Look at Simon Cowell.
He's made it work.
Look at all these main celebrities that people say, oh, I don't like, at the end of the day, they become pricks.
And people love them.
People love them.
But that's, but that's, you know, it's opposite of, uh.
What, a lesbian can be a prick?
No, she could be.
Okay.
Nobody supports.
Females.
Females.
More than.
I'm not giving any kind of, I don't care about sexual orientation.
Me neither.
I don't care about hair color.
You just have to be good looking.
And if you're not, then, you know, we don't look at you.
So, but the difference is, is that if I start out as a mean guy.
Okay.
All right.
Then I could go to, I could lean toward being nice once in a while.
And then come back to mean.
And still come back to mean.
But.
That transition, you don't think you can make it?
If I start out nice and I turn and I lean to mean, I can't do that.
You can't come back to be a nice.
Nobody believes that you're mean until like Ellen, right?
How old is Ellen?
what's that how old is ellen oh 60s okay 62 i just my series just 5th 62 she's a old man
she could transition to that old man that's that's kind of what stern is saying just let it go
just be the be the hardcore and i'm i want to ask you this too in all honesty and this is i don't
want you to become jaffy and do you stupid shtick but why
are we supposed to hate Ellen this much?
Like, what memo did we miss?
What did she do?
Because I honestly, as a person that doesn't have cable and, you know, I like Ellen.
Like I said before, I worked with her producers.
I have no issues with her team.
I never had any issue with them.
Were you able to look Ellen in the eye?
No, because I was never invited to come in.
I was only the email guy.
Yeah, don't ever look up at her when she walks by.
Don't say anything.
Why the push for Ellen to be done?
What did she do?
Honestly, I don't necessarily believe.
Because I don't know what caused it.
We keep talking about, oh, she sat on next George Bush.
I don't think that's it.
I don't know.
I mean, she, just that, you know, that whole toxic culture that she had, you know, she's, she's on the right side.
Fisher.
Sure. I'm only been in this industry for five years. You've been in this industry for 255 years.
56. Oh, sorry. I did not mean to take that one year. Isn't that the culture of a big celebrity?
Well, yeah. Okay, so what is the issue?
Not necessarily being a prick, but the perception of that. Yes.
Definitely the culture.
Exactly.
But that's what made them successful.
And that's what I'm trying to.
That's what makes them successful.
So is it that this is...
I mean, I can tell you stories about Glenn Beck.
You don't need to.
You have to go to go to Mediites and type Glenn Beck and it's all there.
And they got that from me.
Or go to the, what is it, Daily Beast and click and then just type it.
I told the one guy that was right, I've told the story on the air about the guy that wrote the book on Glenn.
And, I mean, he hunted me down.
for his book.
And I kept avoiding him.
And I finally walked out of the radio studio one afternoon, and he's in the lobby.
Did you give him a quote?
I did.
I took him went outside and talked to him for a good ten minutes.
And I told him that Glenn had actually killed his sister, or killed his mom.
And her his mom did not commit suicide.
Glenn killed her, drowned her in the river.
And he didn't print that in the book.
I was so bummed.
He didn't believe me.
I don't want to end the radio show with that note.
I wanted that so bad for him to print that.
I know, I know.
Well, I'm just saying this.
I mean, that's how you know some of this stuff is all just bull crap, right?
It's because people make stuff up.
That book on Glenn is just made up bull crab.
That's back to Ellen.
I'm not sure why we need to take her down.
But we, they, them, it has decided.
Ellen needs to come down.
And they have not stopped, man.
It is a relentless bashing.
Yeah, every day there's something new.
And I thought you were joking about that.
And I put a Ellen alert on Google.
I had to shut it down from Google.
Because it was unbelievable.
I know.
The amount of hate.
And the thing that bothers me the most is the inconsistency because these are the same people that she stood for, that she applaud for.
And now they're coming for literally the death of her show and her millions of dollars over what?
Give me something for me to put my teeth on and say, you know what?
Yes, let's cancel Ellen.
But I thought Ellen was liked by everybody, which is why she got this indication.
because both sides had something to grab onto Ellen and say, you know what?
I like that.
Oh, I like that side of a way.
Yeah, I know she's a liberal and she's a lesbian, but I like her and she's fine.
No, no problem.
Do you think Ellen was dancing on her show, on her first 10-minute show because she likes it?
No, you idiot.
Did you read the story about the dancing, by the way?
No, I did not.
Okay, so there's a story that I read, not that I'm reading all the Ellen stories,
But there's a story out there that talked about how much she hated the dancing.
It was a joke when she danced.
And they had meetings, according to the story, they had meetings with the big executives and called LN and called the producers in to talk her into continuing to dance.
Think about it.
The audience, they did focus groups that loved her dancing and she hated it.
Jeffie, again, this is coming from a guy that's been an industry for five.
years, do you think a host hosting a daily talk show wants to dance every time they come into the
studios for five to ten minutes? Not a chance. Not a chance. And that shows you that Ellen is
willing to please the masses. He's going to do a little bit of a story here. They like the dancing.
Fine. I'll suck it up. And I'll do this little. And by the way,
you know this is just the same dance with the shoulders and the hands in the front and then the sliding
she does not want to dance she and by the way what they forced her hand i tell you this
awesome when she's when they told her you have to dance in the audience she even blew a bigger gasket
and i bet she threw something at the wall i'm sure yeah i'm sure she did yeah again this is a
big time celebrity
on a syndicated radio
radio station
and a syndicating TV station
you really think
she wants to play with the masses
she doesn't
and it's okay for her
not to play with the masses
yeah but don't look at her
but don't look at her
and they just read a big story
about what they made
the audience go through
and I'm thinking
they make every audience
every audience goes through
yes every audience
goes through
a screening
that's not a big deal
But it is a big deal because now it's Ellen.
Yeah.
And by the way, and we'll end with this.
I think so.
Do you think, and this is why I got my fingers crossed and I know it's not going to happen,
they came for Ellen.
Do you think the view is next?
Ooh, I don't know.
That's a tough one.
Man, the view is.
The view is.
Think about it.
Ellen is liked by everybody.
And they took her down.
That's the problem, though.
The view takes a lot of hits.
And they still get the guests.
And they still,
and those people are,
please go for the view.
Please go for the view.
You know what?
The view,
if it takes us liking the view to make it go away,
I love the view.
I do.
But not really.

While the show has been going on,
those of you listening live to the podcast on the 12th of August 2020.
We started the show with the battle that Chris had started.
It's not a battle.
Well, they took it as a battle.
You were, you know, you were a mansplaining things.
But I'm not a man.
I don't identify as a man.
Well, they identify you as one.
Absolutely, they did.
But it's caused quite a stir.
Oh, yes.
On the Twitter sphere.
And Twitter, who we jokingly believe have you shadow banned.
Yes.
Your Chris Cruz Twitter account shadow band is now seeing some traction due to the fight with the women.
And they are puzzled.
Twitter is puzzled like, hey,
yes.
Don't we have that guy, Shadow Band?
What's going on?
As of right now,
I'm getting so many notifications
of people interacting with me
that Twitter decided to interrupt that
notifications with a little,
and I'll tweet this out,
with a little notification saying,
you're getting a lot of notifications,
want to set up some filters to help control it?
and here, Fisher, we read between the lines,
and what this is telling me is,
we have you a shadow ban.
Nobody's supposed to be interacting with you.
What is going on?
You want us to help?
So right now.
Put you back so nobody knows you're there.
Twitter is trying to bail me out from,
I guess,
a mistake of doing some society observation
of why do we need to bring others down
to bring you up?
Hey, we got a shadow banner starting to gain some traction.
But he wanted, just tweet him, ask him if he wants us to help him.
He's not used to getting all those mentions, so they probably want a little bit of help.
So it has two answers that they want me to answer.
Yes, set of filters or no thanks.
And just to let you know, Fish, I'm going to show you here.
Yes, set of filter is pretty bolded.
Yeah, the no thanks, is that saying no thanks?
Yeah, the bottom says no thanks.
It's so fainted that the no thanks is like, am I supposed to click on no thanks?
Or is my only option, yes, set up filters.
And if you don't click exactly on no thanks, you've clicked on, yeah, the help.
Yes, yes.
It's like when you try to vote for Al Gore, I mean for George Bush, and the vote goes to Al Gore.
Yes, absolutely.
Like, you have to click exactly between the no and the comma.
That's where you click.
That's hilarious.
So, Jeffrey, if that doesn't show you that I'm shadow ban, I don't know what shows you.
I believe that does prove it.
100%.
Because Twitter right now is like, wait, what are you doing?
You're not supposed to be getting.
And by the way, I press no thanks because I don't need a bailout from Twitter.
No, we're fine.
You know what?
Here's the deal.
We can look at our own tweets and our old ones.
responses and take care of it.
Yes.
And we can actually look and go, oh, I think that's tongue and cheek.
Or I don't care what this person says.
I'll scroll on past it because we are able to do that as human beings.
We don't need you, Jack, and the rest of your social media gurus to decide what we see
and what we don't see.
Man, it pisses me.
I'm not mad at them again.
I just can't take it.
Wait, you weren't mad at them before?
Well, it's trying to be nice.
Oh, okay.
So I know I've got all kinds of stuff to get to today.
And of course, you know.
Well, that's what we have Pop Friday.
I know.
I know.
That we just, for the new followers and the new listeners of Shue and the Fat
that decided to follow us on Spotify, we welcome you.
Yes, absolutely.
We welcome you.
Usually, here's a quick rundown of the show.
Usually what Jeffrey doesn't get to.
So he usually has about.
10 to 15 stories per show.
And you should do it's about two to three.
And what happens is on Fridays,
we have a segment called Fat Pat Friday.
Or usually we do headlines Thursdays
or quick headlines.
And that's when we go over all the headlines
that Jeffrey forgot to talk about
because he decided to go from 15 topics to three.
We may have to start another theme day
of just fat checked.
Fat checked?
Yes.
Plus, I'm going to have a special Saturday podcast this week.
And it's going to be, and it might be a two or three-parter.
What are you doing?
Am I producing this?
I'm sorry?
Am I producing this?
Because I'm busy.
The next three Fridays, I'm busy.
Don't worry your little butt.
Okay.
Don't you worry about it.
Okay.
Just making sure.
But I realized that I've got, I think we're going to have a special Saturday.
It's going to take me.
I was going to just do it one Saturday.
And then I started looking through what it's going to be.
And I realized it's going to take more than one show.
Is this going to be an elephant story or is this going to be a spoon and fork and knife story?
Or are you going to have a guest?
I'll tell you what it is if you want.
I will like to know, since I'm not part of this.
You mean you could be a part of it if you want
But you just got done telling me
I'm busy on Fridays
Yeah
I was going to record it
You know later today
But whatever
It was
I was going through my phone
And I realized
I need to talk about all the screenshots
I take
You do take a lot of screenshots
Yes
So I think I'm just going to have
Call it Screenshot Saturday
Screenshot Saturday
Is it something visual
And just go through
Go through my screenshots
and just talk about the screenshots that I have on my phone.
Is this something visual?
Well, I mean, yes, but no.
I mean, I could create the vision in the podcast.
Then I'm going to tell you this right now.
I prefer visual over auditory.
Yeah, well, the podcast isn't visual.
Talk to Blaze TV about that, but it's not.
Last time I checked, you have a YouTube channel.
You kept telling people to subscribe.
I got a lot of stuff on the YouTube channel.
Oh, so now, so now.
A lot of stuff back on you.
Now you respect the Q line.
Now you respect the Q line.
Yeah, I got a lot of stuff on that, man.
There's, you know, I got the gavel.
Oh, the candle.
The candle.
The photographic.
The Trump photographs by the Trump point house.
Yeah, yeah.
And I got the new, the new, uh, reoccurring YouTube bit that I'm putting together.
Oh, yeah, the, the microwave thing.
I'll bleep it out.
Don't.
I'll say that.
I'll bleep it out.
Usually when you say you bleep it out, you don't, though.
I always bleep out everything I bleep out.
So I'll leave you with, I got a test for you.
I got this quiz.
You know what, this morning as I was sitting in the toilet and texting you, hey, we could record today at 11.
I had a feeling, an internal feeling that I was about to get quiz.
So I decided.
I was thinking about you.
You know, we were on the same wavelength because I was, I go through my, you know, the morning.
emails of, you know, prep and just, you know, stories and what's going on around the world.
And this one email that I get has today's quiz.
Okay.
And it has all the unconventional titles given to business and government leaders.
And I thought, oh, I got to give this to Chris.
So that's only five.
It's only five titles.
All right.
And now I'm going to give you the title.
And then we're going to see if you know what particular.
position that is.
Okay.
Okay.
So I'll give you the titles and then we'll go back over them again so you'll have them in your head once.
Okay.
Postmaster General, Secretary General, Chief of Space Operations, Dear Leader, Head Goblin.
Okay.
Okay.
You ready?
I'm ready.
Postmaster General.
Yes.
Postmaster, what is, what company?
Oh, USPS.
Correct.
Secretary General.
Secretary General, that's nobody.
United Nations.
Oh, really?
I mean, some would say you're right, and it's nobody.
But this is the head guy, the United Nations.
Okay.
All right.
Chief of Space Operations.
Is that Space Force?
You got it, baby.
All right, so two out of three.
Okay.
Well, not really.

But no.
Ooh, man, dude.
How many did I get?
Three out of five.
I mean, I don't know that I...
That's passing.
That's more than half.
That's a C plus.
Plus, if I give you the, you know, the bump because of your minority status, that's your B.
Oh, you have to, you have to grade on a curve.
I'm brown for a reason.
You have to gray with a curve.
Wow, you got a B.
I mean, you almost got them all right.
That's all it counts.
And by the way, just for trying, that should bump me to an A.
I mean, in today's world, congratulations, you got an A plus.
