Starting point is 00:00:00 Hello and welcome to chewing the fat. Recall alert, recall, recall, recall, recall. So Trader Joe's is pulling its, and you're going to have to dry your eyes. So just if you're driving, you may think about pulling over. It's gluten-free, battered halibut is being pulled from the shelves. I know. I know. See what I mean? You should have pulled over. so apparently the gluten-free battered halibut has undeclared wheat and milk in the product
Starting point is 00:00:39 who knew well they didn't and now they do so it's got to be recalled they issued the recall for the 10-ounce boxes of halibut that were packaged and they give the SKU numbers the 50382 and the product code of 5373131 22620. The affected product from supplier Orca Bay Foods LLC had a best if used by date by November 5th, 2021. It was sold in 19 states. Connecticut, Iowa, Illinois, Indiana, Kansas, Kentucky, Maine, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, Nebraska, New Hampshire, New York, Ohio, Rhode Island, Tennessee, Vermont, Wisconsin.
Starting point is 00:01:26 Now, no illnesses or allergic reactions have been reported so far, but Trader Joe's has encouraged shoppers who recently purchased the product, you know, the gluten-free, battered halibut, to proceed with caution. And they have wheat or milk allergy sensitivity, if you have that, really proceed with extra caution and we urge you to discard the product or you can return it to any trader joes for a full refund now i mean as always you can discard the product or return it which one would you choose i don't know welcome to chewing the fat well we have another another warning too uh and it's not a recall for gluten-free
Starting point is 00:02:23 frozen halibut. But if you were listening live to this show on the 28th of October 2020, Hurricane Zeta is making its way to Louisiana.
Starting point is 00:02:38 Again. Not Zeta again, but Storm again. It's looking like the cone of death is right over New Orleans. And it's going to make landfall tonight.
Starting point is 00:02:50 It's moving pretty fast. 18 miles an hour and it's going to you know they're looking for another huge storm to hit it's incredible that this is you know probably a category one maybe a two by the time it makes landfall looks like it's going to be right over new orleans and it's the fifth named storm to hit Louisiana coast during this season wow I mean it makes it reminds you me of Florida during 2005. I was in Florida at the time. And it was like a never-ending.
Starting point is 00:03:30 I feel for you, Louisiana. And I feel for you for the tracks throughout that. I mean, people are still trying to pick up the pieces, and it just seems never-ending. I understand the frustration. I mean, you had Delta. right a couple weeks ago then uh marco then laura and uh started off with christabal just uh you know then you have zita i mean it's just a never ending i know so uh you know be safe and you know
Starting point is 00:04:11 you'll come out of it and i'm sure mercury one will have people there along with uh you know every other charity that is there to help so if you need help don't be afraid to ask for it because it'll be there for you. But a man, do I understand? And I am frustrated with you. Like I said, I was in Florida in 2005, 2004, 2005. It was never ending. We were forever in hurricane coverage at the mothership of 970, WFLA.
Starting point is 00:04:40 And, man, it felt like 2006 would never come. And finally, you know, the end of hurricane season happened. And then it, you know, slowed down. And it was like, ooh, okay, because we were ready for another, you know, another monster storm season. And during 2005, one of those storms, I remember actually all the other storms, I didn't, you know, have the family evacuate. They just, you know, rode out the storms that came through, you know, that came through the Tampa Bay area. But one storm, well, two storms, Charlie looked like it was going to make landfall in Tampa Bay. and then it came ashore south of Tampa Bay
Starting point is 00:05:20 and cut across and did damage in Orlando where all the people in Tampa Bay had evacuated. It's really weird. And that might have been the storm. I don't remember there was another storm that came through that I brought the family to the station. I mean, they were living in the boss's office while we were on the air
Starting point is 00:05:37 because I thought that bad boy was going to, you know, going to hit. We did, and then we had damage at the building, in fact. You know, the roofs were leaking. So anyway, Louisiana. I understand your frustration, and I'm with you wholeheartedly. And anybody that's in the path, be safe. Okay? And let's hope that this is the end of it.
Starting point is 00:05:56 We're close to the technical end of hurricane season. That doesn't mean they end, but we're close to the end. So let's just hope and pray that it is the end of hurricane season 2020. But again, I say 2020, and then I realize, ooh, you know, it very well may not be the end. because it's 2020. And we're smack dab in the middle of an election. I don't know how these people are going to vote. I mean, it's just a nightmare.
Starting point is 00:06:27 I know. I know. Hopefully next week we'll know at this time. We'll know if we have a, you know, who our president will be. That will be great. We'll hopefully be done with the rioting and the looting. I kill me. I kill me. It just makes me laugh.
Starting point is 00:06:56 Yeah, it's all going to go away. It's just like magic. It's going to go away. Abercadabra, and it's going to be gone. So, don't you worry about it. So if you found a skull, what would you do with it? No, I mean it. What would you do with it?
Starting point is 00:07:17 So someone found a skull in March of 2019. And instead of saying, hey, police officers, I found a skull here. They brought it home and put it up on the fireplace mantle. And then somebody or that same person put some sunglasses on the skull.
Starting point is 00:07:38 And there it sat. There it sat. And if you believe that person, then it just sat there until someone said, you know, that's a skull. And they let the show. sheriff's office know that that house there's got a skull on the fireplace mantle so they came and took it
Starting point is 00:08:01 and the person whose house it was said well yeah i found it back at march i found it over here i just liked it it it was cool it's you know it's a human skull what else are you going to do with it i put it on the mantel put some sunglasses on it and so he said he'd let the police officer or she They don't say, let the police officers know that where they found it. They did a big search in that area for a body, other bones. Now, they think they've got a DNA test on it. And they say that it was, they believe that it was DNA from family members of this junior Willie McCann who's been missing since 2012. Okay.
Starting point is 00:08:48 So the search was made. they're looking for it and they found nothing. And so they think that Junior Willie McCann was killed by another family member who is now deceased. Okay. So they don't know. They have asked the public if you have information related to Junior Willie McGahn. Wait, is it McCann or McGahn? I think the story has it spelled two different ways.
Starting point is 00:09:24 Okay, so if you have information on a junior Willie McCann, MC, C-A-N-N, or a junior Willie McGahn, M-C-G-A-N, or anyone else that's missing, let the Morgan County Sheriff's Department in Tennessee know. and maybe you can help them out a little bit. But my question still stands. If you found a skull, what would you do with it? I know. I mean, sure you want to bring it home. Sure you want to set it on the fireplace mantle
Starting point is 00:10:07 and just, you know, look at it for a while. Because human skulls are just so darn cute. And you put sunglasses on them? Oh, my God. And they just, what happens is they become a family, a part of the family. And they're just there with you all the time. So why wouldn't you bring it home? Or, you know, let somebody know, hey, I found a skull over here.
Starting point is 00:10:36 Maybe there's other bones to a body. I probably will just leave it there and let the police look at it. You could do that. Or you could just bring it home and set it on the mantle and enjoy the, the fun and the happiness that a human skull brings on the fireplace mantle. I got to tell you, I just got done watching
Starting point is 00:10:56 Ted Cruz in a seven or eight minute chat and I wish I watched the whole thing. I'm going to go back and watch the whole thing. The heads of the the social media families are testifying
Starting point is 00:11:13 and Google is there, Facebook is there, and Twitter is there. So they've got Jit Pie. No, Jipai is the FCC. They have Sunja, Sunja, right, is the Google, Zuckerberg for Facebook, and Dorsey for Twitter. And Ted Cruz just raked Dorsey over the coals. Now, Jack, by the way, needs a beard trim. It's looking a little rough, James.
Starting point is 00:11:42 It's a little rough, babe. But he claims that... Their policy is all about the New York Post story. Like New York Post still cannot post on their Twitter account because of the policy of sharing perceived hacked material. Okay. So Jack claims that yes, they are still blocked from tweeting because they haven't gone back and deleted the original tweet. Now, if the way he worded it was that if they were to do. delete the original tweet, then they could tweet again and tweet the same story again.
Starting point is 00:12:25 I think that's the way I took it. But the point is, is that he's making them, or you, go back in and do what he dictates under policies before they allow you to do anything. I have to go watch this whole thing. This was amazing because he is, he is, uh, is dictating under his policies and people, you know, his deal, right? The terms of agreement. You signed up for it and you are, you know,
Starting point is 00:12:57 to deal with their terms of agreement, which makes him the dictator. And he's decided what's what? He said that their policies were wrong at the beginning. And within the first 24 hours, they made wrong decisions and actions and that they changed them. but they didn't change them to just say okay go ahead you can you know your accounts back open again they're still making the post go back in and others and you go back in and delete the original
Starting point is 00:13:32 post that made them act on those decisions wrongly according to him but since they were right at the time you still have to follow the code of action it's agonizing agonizing and they are they're starting to run scared a little bit and good good they should
Starting point is 00:13:58 it makes no sense if you're going to be Twitter and Facebook let people alone let them do what they do and we will decide
Starting point is 00:14:15 we'll decide who we want to see and who we want to listen to, which we have. And yet you decide, well, you know, yeah, you wanted to hear that person, but, you know, we're going to make you specifically go and find that person to hear what they have to say or to read what they have to say. But we're not blocking you. We're just making it so you don't see everything that they post at the time that they posted. You have to go back and search for it yourself. And of course, under the terms of agreement, that's, I freaking hate that so much. When I go into stores or businesses and I hear that, well, it's company policy.
Starting point is 00:15:00 Well, I can't do it. That's just, that's policy. We'll change the freaking policy. How about that? I mean, it's just, well, we have changed the policy, sir. But when you purchase the product, that policy was still enforced. So we can't help you. because when you purchased it, the policy is still enforced.
Starting point is 00:15:18 What? Anyway, if you have an opportunity, go, I'd love to play it for you. I probably should just play the whole thing for you. It was great. And I know the clip that I saw cuts off. So there's more. I don't know how long Ted was up against Jack, but I want to hear all their testimony.
Starting point is 00:15:39 And we'll talk about it tomorrow. It is fascinating to hear. hear them try to justify their dictatorships at these social media accounts. And Google, man, Ted even said they're in trouble. They are probably one of the most powerful companies on the planet. So, man, good luck. Good luck. I hope we, I hope, I hope that somebody has the guts to do something.
Starting point is 00:16:09 But we shall see. as long as I'm on the streaming giant thought wave, I got a communication through Facebook today from someone about cuties on Netflix. All right. So Marybeth, thank you. I appreciate it. I got your message.
Starting point is 00:16:33 And I want to read this message to you, the audience. Okay. Good morning, Jeffie. I keep meeting to text you. about this. In the Netflix cuties movie, there is an exposed breast. It is extremely quick and easy to miss. When the little girls are watching a video on one of their phones of a rival dance group, one of the rival dancers on the video has a wardrobe malfunction. Those girls seemed older to me, though. It's for a split second and is seen on the screen of the phone and very easy to miss.
Starting point is 00:17:09 You could easily have missed it if you were looking away or at your own phone. I agree, not worth watching again, but it was indeed there. Have an awesome day. Thank you. Now, I will say this is different. They also are looking at one time, one of them was looking at the strip club dancers, some video strip club, and I thought maybe it was in there. And I talked about that, one of my first reviews.
Starting point is 00:17:34 Now, this footage is different, although I do remember. the scene and it is possible that that is the scene but I don't think that's what everyone is talking about I have to I'm so angry that I'm gonna have to watch this god-awful movie again I cannot tell you because it just is not that good a movie but I'm going to watch it again all right and I'm going to tell you if and when it happens and how it happens in this movie because even if that's true, that's not the way it's portrayed. Okay. I know that those girls seemed older in the video, but, you know, they were still, you know,
Starting point is 00:18:19 kid dance troupe. But the way it's portrayed is the people who are starring in the movie are just, you know, lifts up the shirt and there's the exposed breast. So I'm going to go back and watch the stupid movie. And then I'm going to go and bring up all the. reviews that talk about the exposed breast, and we're going to settle this once and for all, because I've had just about enough of this cutie's debate. So, there.
Starting point is 00:18:53 Let's wrap this thing up. Let's go to the break room. I need something ice, cold, and refreshing. Oh, my gosh, and I have it right here in my left hand. You could write your own jokes. So we're in the break room, so let's talk about the World Series. The Ray's lost. Very disappointing.
Starting point is 00:19:34 Yes, I sat through that in every game. I watched all games, and I was very disappointed that they lost. Last night was, you know, it was an exciting game. They took the lead, and then they lost the lead. And I will tell you that they took the starting pitcher out. and in the sixth inning. And it was really like, wow, what are they doing? He was pitching in a great game.
Starting point is 00:19:59 He had given up a hit. And it was just according to the way the rays do things. And the way that their matrix that they use for metrics, not matrix, but really the metrics that they use was, you know, I'm sure the manager, you know, was time to pull the player. And I get it. And that's, you know, that's how they live their life as far as the raised baseball team. But it, there was no gut. And in my gut and in the pitcher's gut and in many of the players' guts, I feel like he was still strong and he was, we should have left him in.
Starting point is 00:20:39 And that, I felt like when they took him out of the game, that lost the game for them. It just felt like the air went out. It was like they believed that the pitcher was losing. It's cool that the game was not undercut. control, it gave the Dodgers momentum, and, you know, they ended up scoring and losing, and winning the game, the Dodgers. And they had one player who tested positive during the middle of the game. I guess that he had tested, they had tested them, and he tested positive, and so they thought
Starting point is 00:21:07 it was a false positive. They let him start the game, and then they tested them again, waiting for another result, and that result came in. I think, I don't know. Maybe there's some, they were covering it up, but they pulled them in the middle of the game. He was a turner for the Dodgers. He was one of their best players.
Starting point is 00:21:24 And they just, I'd help you test the positive. You can't play anymore. I mean, he's already out there. He's out in the field. It was just amazing what we're doing with that. But anyway, it was a great season, and it was disappointing that the race lost.
Starting point is 00:21:37 And I even broke out the jerseys and everything last night. And if you follow me on Instagram, you saw the pictures, Jeff Fisher Radio. And you can, you know, follow me on Instagram, Jeff Fisher Radio, Facebook and Parlor, is Jeff Fisher, Radio. Twitter is at Jeffrey JFR. So, you know, you can see that. And, you know, it was just,

I see where Dunkin Donuts or I'm sorry, Duncan Brands is looking to sell. Okay, don't be ruining the product. They're looking to, what helps the product is they're looking to sell for $9 billion.
Starting point is 00:23:36 Okay. I don't know that I could say no to that either, but they're looking to it. They're looking to sell to a private equity. backed by Inspire Brands. Now, Inspire Brands owns Arby's, Buffalo Wild Wings,
Starting point is 00:23:57 Sonic, and Jimmy Johns. You add Duncan to that? You're bringing in some cash. You're bringing in some cash. So, $9 billion for Duncan Brands. That's a pretty good payday. Pretty good payday.
Starting point is 00:24:13 And it makes me want to have a donut. So Emily Radicow, right the model the I'm gonna go topless in a music video to become a star the I still love taking pictures of myself naked model who's married to a guy by the name of Sebastian Bear Maclard confirmed the news that she's pregnant and she posted an essay in vogue and of course on her Instagram account which is followed by 26.9 million followers. She posted a short vid of an up close of her, and then it backs off to show that she's pregnant. And it, you know, has a post where it talks about her saying on the cover of Vogue,
Starting point is 00:25:08 why I don't want to reveal the gender of my child. Huh, that's interesting. That's interesting to me. So she claims in her essay that she's not going to know her child's gender until the age of 18. Now, you know, we can make the 18 jokes. But she claims that when my husband and I tell friends that I'm pregnant, their first question after congratulations is almost always, do you know what you want? And we like to respond that we won't know the gender until our child is 18. and that they'll let us know then.
Starting point is 00:25:50 Everyone laughs at this. There is a truth to our line, though one that hints at possibilities that are much more complex than whatever genitalia or child might be born with. The truth that we ultimately have no idea who rather than what
Starting point is 00:26:05 is growing inside my belly. I know. I know. I thought, a couple of things from this. It's just kind of kind of agonizing to me this this talk of oh they're going to be able to decide and so we're not going to we don't know if it's a boy or a girl well you do emily whether you want to or not you do now i thought uh i don't know why you're waiting until they're at the you know retirement
Starting point is 00:26:38 age of 18 i thought that uh you know we children get to make the choice when whatever age they are and whatever they feel like they are, that's when they make the choice. They're not waiting until they're 18 to make that choice. That's what I thought. Now, I'm with you that, you know, at the age of 18 or 21, whatever your adult number is, that, you know, then, you know, you can decide whether you want to be who you are or become something else or your people look at you differently because they think you're something else, but you're really this.
Starting point is 00:27:15 you know, whatever you want. But I just find it, I don't know what you gain from that. I don't know what you gain from loving your thing that you gave birth to. And whether it's a thing with a penis or a thing without a penis is still a thing. But there's not going to be a gender. It's just going to be a thing with or without a thing. And it's just weird. but hey congratulations congratulations and just enjoy and love that thing with every ounce of love that
Starting point is 00:27:57 you have okay okay so i'm looking at these uh new shirts that were sent to me from uh the silent will be heard and uh you know the silent will be heard dot com and they're really cool shirts and i believe that it's true so i went to vote today and i did uh it's wednesday so i did chewing the fat segment on pat unleashed and then when i left the studios today i said you know what i'm i'm gonna go vote i you know i've been meaning to do it and it was cold and rainy and I figured, you know, if any time is a good time, it's probably now. And so I went to one of the early polling places that they have. I mean, there's of eight billion of them.
Starting point is 00:28:58 And walked in, no line. There were, it was not busy. There were people voting and people were there, but it wasn't, there was no line. And the people who were working there were great and couldn't have. been nicer and it couldn't have been easier to vote if there is ever an argument for voter suppression no I'm sorry no you don't really need an ID if you have your voter card I didn't so I had to show my ID and yep there you go Jeff no problem and let's take this number this lady will get to your
Starting point is 00:29:46 your ticket and then you go to the machine you put it in you do go through your voting and then you take it to the other machine and you put it in you get the receipt and you move on with your life and it was uh it could seriously it could not have been easier I just I it's amazing to me
Starting point is 00:30:03 how the argument is that people have a problem voting and just I don't get it because every time I go to vote everybody that works there. I mean, I thank them because they're working there, and they just, they do, they're doing their job.
Starting point is 00:30:22 Their position is this position to check people in. This lady, make sure that you get your voting slip, and make sure that you go to a machine down this wall. This person, make sure that you put it in the right machine so that your votes get counted, and you get the okay that, yes, they've got it, and your vote count, and go ahead, and there you, get out of here. Have a nice day.
Starting point is 00:30:44 Okay. And I was walking to the building. I got out of my car. I'm walking to the building. I got halfway up there. And I realized, oh, crap. I'm going to need a mask. So I go back to the car.
Starting point is 00:30:55 I get my mask. And there was a guy out there for underneath the tent for one of the local politicians. And I turned around and I went, ah, I probably need a mask. And he's like, yeah, you do. And so, you know, get the mask. And, of course, there's, you know, the big sign on the door of the building. A mask are required. And so, you know, there you have it.
Starting point is 00:31:18 And everybody is real nice, and they're wearing masks, and they stay socially distance. And I took down my mask for a split second because he had my ID. And I took out my mask. I gave him a smile like, see, it's me. My ID doesn't have a mask. I mean, that was the hardest part. That was the hardest part of voting.
Starting point is 00:31:39 I had to hold my breath and hope that there wasn't any, you know, COVID-19 flying around when I took down my mask for that split second and said, and gave him a quick smile. I didn't even talk because I didn't want any breathing or anything. I just looked at him and gave him a smile and his he had my ID. But it was just
Starting point is 00:31:58 you know, it's a done deal. It's over. And, uh, yay. Yay! So, you know, there's that. So I see where some, you know, we can do some food news. And it's always in, important to do some food news. We started off with with food news with a recall. So we might as well
Starting point is 00:32:21 end it with some food news today as well. There's several stories. We can go to Tyson Foods. They're going to, according to them, change the way food safety is done. They're going to modernize inspections. So what they've done now, they say that in January, they're going to have company employees take on the duties of more than a dozen federal inspectors at the large Kansas beef plant. They got the U.S. government waiver. Yeah, go ahead.
Starting point is 00:32:57 You can check everything. Don't worry about it. Okay. Good. So this is the country's highest selling meat supplier. And they got a waiver saying that for inspection requirements at their plant in Holcomb, Kansas. Other companies apparently have made similar changes to chicken and pork plants. What this does is it allows Tyson to have workers instead of government inspectors
Starting point is 00:33:23 to check cattle carcasses for defects or disease before the animals are butchered. Okay. So the USDA said that it's going to continue to inspect all the carcasses and parts, but the quality assurance and trimming tasks go to Tyson. if that actually saves the government money, good. I'm all for it. It looks like it does. I don't know that it creates jobs because that means the government workers are, you know,
Starting point is 00:33:55 probably will end up working for Tyson instead of the government. But at least, you know, our tax dollars aren't paying for it. But people are, you know, the activists are saying that, oh, it's really problematic. The changes are moving toward, you know, deregulation. Oh, okay. Now, the meat packers have accelerated this automation of doing things because of COVID-19, right? Thousands of employees and USDA inspectors were infected with COVID-19. And some of these plants were beginning to have to shut down.
Starting point is 00:34:33 And it, not a good thing. We need our meat. You can quote me on that. We need our meat. So, you know, it frees up some inspectors to focus on improving public health, sure. So that means they're not getting rid of the inspectors.
Starting point is 00:34:52 They're just doing other things. Like, you know, improving public health and animal welfare and food safety. Duh. So be ready for the activist to be all about that. Wendy's is now telling you, Hey, we've got a new chicken sandwich.
Starting point is 00:35:11 Way to come on board, Wendy's. Way to be on board the chicken sandwich fight. So they're giving you a free classic chicken sandwich with any purchase. You can use the mobile app or you can go through the drive-through. Nice. You don't have to use the app. But any purchase and you get a free chicken sandwich. Now it goes on through November 8th and you get one sandwich a week.
Starting point is 00:35:38 Right? So the new classic chicken sandwich. sandwich replaces the home-style chicken sandwich, and it's crispier and juicier, according to Wendy's. Yay! That's so special. You know, we had Popeyes with the fried chicken sandwich. In the story, they don't mention Chick-fil-A. I wonder why.
Starting point is 00:35:57 But McDonald's is now testing a crispy chicken sandwich and a deluxe crispy chicken sandwich on the menu. They have chicken on the breakfast menu now at McDonald's. So, you know, it's chicken. It's chicken time everywhere. But for a couple of free chicken sandwiches at Wendy's, that might not be a bad deal. I'm just saying. Just remember if you're going to go through Wendy's Drive-Thru, remember to get a chicken sandwich.
Starting point is 00:36:27 Take it home. Eat it later if you have to. And then we have this story about a website that tracks every broken McDonald's ice cream machine in America. Thank you. Now, I, you know, I got to remember to use it before I pull into McDonald's for my, you know, my dollar ice cream cone as a quick, you know,
Starting point is 00:36:53 just aside as you're driving through, oh, hey, there's a McDonald's. I feel like an ice cream cone. Nobody's in the drive-thru. You drive-through, it costs you a buck and some change. You got an ice cream cone, and then you're down the road again. Not that I've ever done something like that.
Starting point is 00:37:06 But apparently there's a software engineer in Germany and he has developed a website that tracks every McDonald's soft service machine in the United States. Nice. So he reverse engineered the computer code in the McDonald's app. Okay. So apparently what he's done is he's placed an order at every McDonald's for an ice cream cone. and when he gets the when it comes back that the machine is broken it gives oh no you get a red dot on the website if you go to mickbroken mcbroken com and if you have your area you know locator your
Starting point is 00:37:57 location device on whatever device you're using it shows all the mcdonalds in that particular area and if they have a green or a red dot or an X, you know, there's no ice cream cone at that particular McDonald's. I kind of like, it's a cool idea. I mean, it really does. What's the word I'm looking for? Suck. When you feel like, you know, you have that,
Starting point is 00:38:25 your set mindset of, I just want a quick, soft serve ice cream cone for McDonald's. There's a couple of McDonald's. There's a couple of McDonald's in this area that does a good job at pretty large ice cream cones from McDonald's, depending on who's working. And so, you know, they're a buck and a buck and some change. And I think for a while they were, I think they're up to $1.25 or something. But you just pull in, you get a quick ice cream cone, and you're down the road. It's quick.
Starting point is 00:38:56 And so, you know, to McBroken.com, you just got to remember to look at it if you're out there. on the road and so you're not I guess so you're not as bummed right if they're if you're coming up and you know I want an ice cream cone you're at the red light and you log into the old micbrookin.com if your McDonald's you know up the road two lights up the road if the ice cream cone machine is down you'll know about it so you won't have to pull in and be bummed out you could just be bummed out two lights down the road by thinking oh crap I really want an ice cream cone. Ah, well, I'll go to the next McDonald's up the road four blocks away instead of two.
Starting point is 00:39:40 But it will... So you can be just half-bubbed instead of fully bummed when there's no ice cream at the McDonald's. You know how bummed out you get. You do. You know how bummed out you do. So apparently this guy has like... $18,752 worth of orders every minute at McDonald's. And that way he knows that if the machine is down or not,
Starting point is 00:40:13 eh, okay. I don't know. McDonald's usually waits until you come to pick it up with the app. Or, you know, so I don't think they're making all these ice cream cones and setting them on the counter. But if they were to do that, then they would be pissed. But because they don't do it that way. McBroken.com is a good way to know whether the soft serve is ready for you or not.
Starting point is 00:40:38 Stream and subscribe to more Blaze Media content at theblaze.com slash podcasts. So with 9,073,426 total cases of COVID-19 coronavirus in the United States of America, and we are at 232,557 deaths. Wow. Let's go down to see where our friends at China are rolling in at these days. All the way down to number 55. China is reporting 85,868 total cases with only 4,64 deaths. There's not a chance that that is true.
Starting point is 00:41:27 But I digress. It's a good time to remember that for those of you that thinking you're going to have to put a chip in, you are dumb. Okay, stop it. You're not going to have to put a chip in because Boston University has already got it figured out. They're just requiring students to show their digital COVID-19 badges to enter buildings. That's all. It's just a, it's just show you. your badge that make sure that you're up to date and then we'll let you in the buildings.
Starting point is 00:42:01 That's all. You don't have to come in the buildings. But if you want to, you better be up to date. So they've already started requiring students to show their digital badge indicating their up to date with COVID-19 testing and symptom screening to gain entry into campus dining halls, the libraries, and any of the other facilities. Now it doesn't say what exactly is the symptom screenings and where they have to go to get their digital badge, but it says that you better have it. So there's a worrisome increase in daily numbers of cases among the student body as well as our staff.
Starting point is 00:42:47 So you better follow protocols for testing and screening and social distancing as well. be ready to show the badges on their phone. So you better freaking have your badge or we won't hear of it and you'll be kicked out. Now, according to this, there were a dozen students suspended after they participated in at least one of three parties. Oh, my gosh. And these parties were off campus. So, I mean, it wasn't even they weren't even on campus. I know. Five others who attended these parties were placed on deferred suspension for the rest of the academic year.
Starting point is 00:43:32 Wow. So the officials said that masks wearing and social distancing were disregarded at these parties. Oh my gosh. And this horrible physical assault happened at a party. We don't want this on campus or off campus. Physical assault cannot happen. And this assault. occurred at one of uh at one at one person when one student through a beer can that ricocheted off a building and into another student so you can well imagine how horrific that assault was stop it i mean we are in a sad sad place no he did you a beer can flew off a wall and it hit you oh no oh no that cannot happen so remember it's not a chip dummy it's just your digital COVID-19 badge okay yeah so there and then I saw where
Starting point is 00:44:48 Hunter Biden our main man Hunter Biden who's in the news now and you know part of his the whole laptop and all of that but this story after a while you know hunter's a partier we know that we know hunter loves to party and he's been a partier for you know all his life when he knows that he's you know he's the brother of beau he barely hunter he's just yeah that's beau's brother so apparently he and the new wife got into a big argument and hunter was like i am out of here okay I don't want to hear you. I've had enough of you and the baby and this whole being the buttoned up kind of guy. I've had enough.
Starting point is 00:45:35 So he rented a mansion in Pacific Palisades. He's got the Hollywood Hills home. He left the wife and the kid there. I'm out of here. Rents a $2,300 a night Pacific Palisades mansion. and throws a party with some friends. So the whole sober streak is over. He's had enough.
Starting point is 00:46:01 He left the wife and the new baby at home. And it was about 20 miles away at Pacific Palisades. Rents a place, throws a big bash. And he's gone for a few days and just parties. How long was he gone? He vanished just for days. He said, the last month the recovering drug act vanished for days so it doesn't say exactly how long he was
Starting point is 00:46:28 gone but he had had enough and he went to party he couldn't take the wife nagged at him go to rehab stop doing that and so his dad's probably bugging him to be bucked up and keep your mouth shut and you know the laptop's coming out and we can't we've had enough so he takes some off to rents the mansion. There's only $2,300 a night with that Chinese money. And, you know, has some friends over.
Starting point is 00:47:01 You know, and gets, has one of his drug buddies stopped by. I mean, he is a recovering drug addict. So maybe, maybe he just rented the house in Pacific Palestine to get away from the wife and the baby
Starting point is 00:47:14 and nothing else happened. Right. Right.
