Starting point is 00:00:00 What would you do to survive? Three people rescued off a deserted island in the Bahamas after being stranded for 33 days. The group survived on coconuts, conch, and rats. For me, maybe coconuts and conch. Rats, ooh, honey, no. Even mixed in with little conch.
Starting point is 00:00:31 and little coconuts I am finding it very, very difficult to survive on rats. We don't even know how they got to the island but we do know
Starting point is 00:00:47 they're from Cuba and we do know that they've been transferred to ice custody. The Coast Guard rescued them. They saw the two men and one woman on the island. Apparently, currently dehydrated and not seriously injured, but close to, you know, being out of it.
Starting point is 00:01:11 You know, like after being on an island with no food or water for 30 days, all you've had to eat is coconut, conch, and rat. Now, if you're starting a new restaurant here in the COVID world, you may stay. start up, you know, call a particular dinner the deserted island. Yes, I'd like to order the deserted island. What is that? Why, that's coconut conch and rat. Yum, yum.
Starting point is 00:01:46 Welcome to chewing the fat. So I see where Burke Reynolds has finally got a resting place at the, you know, Hollywood Cemetery. I really found it weird. I mean, the guy died. The man died a couple of years ago now. I mean, Bert's been gone for quite a while now. Apparently, they, and a temporary headstone is there saying, Bert Reynolds. But apparently a bronze or stone bust of him is being commissioned.
Starting point is 00:02:27 and that's going to be unveiled to the public in September on the third anniversary of his death. So he has been dead for two and a half years. So was he just lying around in the back of the house? And they were just waiting to, we don't know what we're going to do with him. We don't know what is going on. We don't know where he's supposed to go. We don't have a graveside for him.
Starting point is 00:02:54 I don't know where he's going to go. So just let him hand. out in the back and we'll figure out what we're going to do with them. So he's at the Paramount Pictures lot, the grave site that's there for, you know, all the huge stars that they put in, it's on the lot there or next to the lot. And so that's where he's going to be. I'm not sure what took so long to get Paramount to say. Hey, how about we bury the man and get him in the grave?
Starting point is 00:03:40 Now, I realize, all right, I realize that he wasn't just laying around in the back of the house in the Florida room, trying to figure out what was going on. I get that. I get it. they had him cremated and so he was maybe just hanging out in the Florida room but not not in just a wooden crate hopefully it was in you know a decent canister
Starting point is 00:04:09 not just a you know an empty cigar box but I was just wondering with the family do you not think you know he belonged maybe that's what they were doing it doesn't stay here it just says that the Hollywood Forever cemetery where he's going to be placed is now happening. It doesn't say that the family was fighting over getting him buried there, who was going to have him.
Starting point is 00:04:37 I'm not sure they had a special memorial in Florida not long after the man died. And I guess they had a special Zoom get together for this ceremony. And the Paramount Pictures last been there. since, I don't know, 1899, 1900. So maybe you figure, you know, there's a couple of places still open at the Paramount lot. He made him a bunch of money. He was a big star.
Starting point is 00:05:06 You know what? Let's move him in. It's okay. What do you say? Is it okay? Yeah, look, he's only been dead for two and a half years? Yeah, that's fine. We'll find a spot for him.
Starting point is 00:05:19 Okay, good. Good. No problem. It just struck me weird. that Burt hasn't been buried yet, if they were going to bury him. Now, if he was cremated and he was sitting in, you know, the kids back floor in a room and they say, yeah, that's dad, you know, okay, good for them. But he's Burt Reynolds and people want to be able to go and pay their respects to the man
Starting point is 00:05:43 at the Paramount, you know, gravesite. So now you can't. Now you can. If you've been wandering around looking for, where can I pay my respects to Burt Reynolds? where can I pay my respect? Now you know. That's the Paramount Lott's there in California. They're going to have a big unveiling of the bust.
Starting point is 00:06:05 Bronze or stone. I don't know why we don't know that yet. It's going to be there, and hopefully the unveiling will be in September. We may cover that. If we can get into California, chewing the fat, may cover that live. Or not, but we'll let you know when it happens. I see in Tanzania, Tanzania has been in the news lately. I mean, we just had the big new disease that's killing a bunch of people in Tanzania,
Starting point is 00:06:34 and they actually cured COVID, right? Well, now they're reporting that archaeologists have made a staggering discovery, staggering discovery in Swaga, Swaga Game Reserve. That's in central Tanzania, for those of you that, you know, don't know the area. It's in 52 previously undocumented rock shelters. It's deliberately painted rock art. I know.
Starting point is 00:07:07 I know. Now, a lot of it has been destroyed, but there's still some that's left. And it's pretty cool, actually. And it's been around for quite some time. Now, there's one site named a mock. He four. It has elaborately painted figurative art with three mysterious anthropomorphic figures with
Starting point is 00:07:37 extremely oversized heads. So they don't know what they are. They know that they're guessing they're people with big heads. Oh. Okay. No problem. There's pictures. There's drawings of animals and different, you know,
Starting point is 00:07:53 different animals looking different. different than what they do now, but they, you know, could figure out what they are. And one painting is, you know, like a giraffe. It's really like all by itself. It's like, oh, yeah, let's stick the giraffe head over them. Oh, okay. No problem. We got that.
Starting point is 00:08:09 So they're going to keep digging. And there's three different sites, but they have similar arrangements. And they all have, you know, similar directions of the hands and arms. So, you know, they look pretty. similar to other humans, although they have the big heads. So I guess we'll figure out what they meant in the future as archaeologists continue to work on documenting the sites. But I would say if you wanted to, you know, if you're thinking, hey, what are we going to do
Starting point is 00:08:44 for vacation this year? We really want to go someplace different. A, we know that Tanzania doesn't have COVID-19. It's been kicked. Sure, they've got that new disease where you, you know, you bleed and you throw up and you but that's mostly for men. And they say it's just a, you know, it's just locked into a small area.
Starting point is 00:09:04 It isn't all over the country. So you might want to think to yourself, you know, maybe we go to the Swaga, Swaga, game reserve in central Tanzania. Huh? I mean, how much fun does that sound like? I know. Swaga, Swaga, Game Reserve in central Tanzania.
Starting point is 00:09:24 Here we are in the Amaki, He amok he for caves. Yeah. Let's take a look at that. That actually would be kind of cool. This is Fat Pile Friday on Chewing the Fat. Thank you so much for coming along for the ride today. I've got a ton of stuff or, you know, of course you have a ton of stuff.
Starting point is 00:09:47 It's chewing the fat. But it's Fat Pile Friday. We've got all kinds of stories. Thanks for coming along for the ride. Tell your friends. Tell your neighbors. I've been getting your emails for those of you reminding me that your five. the rules of the show.
Starting point is 00:10:00 Thank you so much. I know you've been following the rules because I see your emails. And I like this one from Mike, who told me that the other day, someone did ask what you're listening to. Hey, what you're listening to at work? And I actually said chewing the fat. Now, according to Mike, he said that I was actually listening to chewing the fat,
Starting point is 00:10:27 so he didn't have to lie. But rules are rules. Even if he wasn't listening to chewing the fat, he knows that he had to say chewing the fat. As long as we're talking about emails, and that, by the way, is the rules of being a subscriber to Chewing the Fat podcast. If you're a subscriber, well, you know what,
Starting point is 00:10:51 even if you're not a subscriber, but most importantly, if you're a subscriber, one of the rules, and it's rules or rules, no matter what you're listening to on your, you know, Racon headphones, is that when someone asks you, hey, what are you listening to? Your response has to be chewing the fat. It's just a rule. I don't mind that you're listening to other things.
Starting point is 00:11:14 I want you to listen to other things. Remember, hold that whole thing about more voices, not less. Yeah. So it's okay that you're listening to other stuff. but when asked what you're listening to, your answer has to be. Why, chewing the fat with Jeff Fisher. So, I mean, it's just rules or rules.
Starting point is 00:11:31 And I was getting those update emails to Chewing the Fat at theblaze.com. And I just, this joke here, I wish I would have thought of the other day when we were talking about the Aunt Jemima. Oh, no, I just did name the syrup. What is it again? Some milling company.
Starting point is 00:11:48 Anyway, wanted to change the name to Antaima wanted to announce their new name is Uncle Ben's pancake mix That would have been really funny That would have been really, really funny. There's no doubt about that. I would have enjoyed that. A lot of people would not have enjoyed that, but
Starting point is 00:12:09 I would have. And it would have been funny. Gosh darn it. Wouldn't it have? Yes, it would have been funny. You know what is it funny? Is we have explosives missing from a military base. 29 poems in California. So these missing explosives possibly stolen from the base.
Starting point is 00:12:33 A reward is being offered for their discovery. They're approximately 10 pounds of C4. Wow. That could do some serious damage. The plastic explosives could do some serious. damaged 10 pounds of C4, you can blow some stuff up with that.
Starting point is 00:12:56 So they're investigating, so don't worry about it. We've got people looking into it, and we've got a reward issued if you want to, you know, if you think it's no problem. They're extending, they were thinking about extending the training exercise until the explosives are found. So they're just saying, you guys
Starting point is 00:13:12 aren't going anywhere until we find out where these explosives are. So if, you know, Corporal Bill had it in the back of the Jeep, he would turn it in. Oh, look, what I found in the back of this Jeep that isn't mine. But I know that the military, we just got done doing a story about one of the Humvees missing, right? I mean, stuff goes missing all the time. And I'm sure that nothing, nothing bad, nothing evil, nothing other than just someone's
Starting point is 00:13:48 lack of a lack of focus on the details of keeping track of where the explosives are that's how this happened they weren't missing no one took them as just in the back
Starting point is 00:14:03 of Corporal Bill's Jeep oops sorry speaking of things missing if you were expecting a delivery of miracle honey or Just, you know, regular Viagra pills.
Starting point is 00:14:20 They're probably not coming. You know, you probably know it already because federal agents just seized a large shipment bound for Florescent. I guess it's Florescent, Missouri, all the way from Istanbul, Turkey. Now, it was confiscated in Cincinnati, but it was on its way to a certain person in Florescent. But we don't know who that is yet. So it was worth about $1.2 million at Viagra pills and dozens of boxes of this miracle honey, which, according to authorities, is honey laced with the active ingredient in Viagra. Huh.
Starting point is 00:15:07 Isn't that special? They seized about 17,400 Viagra pills and 43 boxes of hundred. honey. So that was quite a large shipment worth over a million bucks. Now the boxes were marked herbal pasta from Istanbul. So
Starting point is 00:15:33 if you were expecting a shipment of herbal pasta from Istanbul, it's not coming. Apparently that's a good place to drop things off. There's going to be a new city now because Florissant also last year they busted. Remember the big vape pens?
Starting point is 00:15:54 A bunch of illegal vape pens that they busted was destined for Florissant too. So it's already been red flagged, man. If you have been sending stuff to Florissant, find a new city because you've been had, my friends. You've been had. another big bust was 15 million counterfeit face masks since the beginning of the coronavirus pandemic so apparently u.s. Customs and Border Protection have had their eye out for counterfeit face masks all right uh they confiscated uh unsafe personal protective equipment. Now it's part of an effort to prevent criminals from
Starting point is 00:16:38 exploiting the public crisis for economic gain. Isn't that what, oh my gosh. That's what any... So now it's even worse. Now, not only are you bringing in fake masks and selling them for a profit,
Starting point is 00:16:59 but it's during a public crisis, and you're trying to make money. So it's even worse that you're trying to sell counterfeit goods and make money on a regular day, but not during a public crisis. How dare you? How dare you think about being a criminal during a public crisis?
Starting point is 00:17:21 Oh my gosh. Just amazing. So I guess they also seized 180,000 prohibited COVID-19 test kits, more than 38,000 prohibited chloroquine tablets. Oh my gosh. So they aren't letting you have the chloroquine tablets used to treat malaria. Wow.
Starting point is 00:17:46 And, you know, heaven forbid that you take that during the pandemic. But not during a public crisis. No, that will not happen. So the counterfeit goods are sold here in the U.S. Yeah. It doesn't say. doesn't say where they're getting them at though they're not letting us know exactly where they're getting these counterfeit face masks and prohibited COVID-19 test kits and prohibited chloroquine tablets
Starting point is 00:18:23 during a public crisis that we can't have that we cannot have that. All right, let's go to the break room. Seriously, it's a fat pile Friday, and I don't want to exploit the public crisis for economic gain. Oh, yeah. Home to so good. So, good. So I love that France is being touted as doing this wonderful thing there. The age of sexual consent is going to 15.
Starting point is 00:19:06 And they're going to prosecute claims of sexual abuse against children by parental and authority figures. Well, welcome to the party, France. Yay. The thing is that they're just considering it. They haven't done it yet. And I don't know that they're going to, although enough people may be upset this time to actually make it happen. But France right now does not have an establishment. age of consent.
Starting point is 00:19:39 So makes it a little bit difficult to, you know, I don't know, bring a case to someone years later. Yeah, makes it tough.
Starting point is 00:19:53 I know. I know. And, you know, it's horrible what happens to these young children. That's why, you know, that's why we're considering
Starting point is 00:20:03 setting and, you know, the sexual consent to age 15. We are considering it. We've got to consider it. We've got to. Now, we're not going to do it yet, but we're considering it. I mean, it's actually pathetic.
Starting point is 00:20:21 Pathetic. Hey, the age of consent to listening to chewing the fat is, I don't know, what, two and above? Some would say two and under. I know, I know. but you heard the rules. If you're a subscriber earlier in the show, you heard the rules that once you subscribe, no matter what you're listening to,

Starting point is 00:22:14 Okay. All right. So this story was brought to my attention under the heading of heartwarming. And, okay. If you say so, it's heartwarming. All right. I'll read you the headline. Teen, reunited with Pet Rooster, lost at Alabama Cracker Barrel,
Starting point is 00:22:34 after Civil War reenactment. Now, I mean, who isn't a fan of the Civil War reenactments? Right? Right. That's what I thought. Now, when you think of a teenager, don't you think, you know, somebody that's 13, 14? And I know that I get it. The legal term.
Starting point is 00:22:54 It's a teenager. So anybody from 13 to 19 are teenagers. I understand that. But when I think of a teen reuniting. with his pet rooster. I'm thinking, let's say, 15 and under, because the age of consent is 15, right? And not in France, but other places around the world.
Starting point is 00:23:16 So this Thomas Ramsey is an 18-year-old person, human, male. 18, and he's from, lives in Mississippi. All right. and he is the founder of the Muddy Rabbit's Mess, a 32-member military reenactment group, the largest youth group nationally. And that's great. That's fantastic.
Starting point is 00:23:45 That is a cool thing. Now they're returning from a Civil War reenactment in Spring Hill, Tennessee, and they stop for lunch at the Cracker Barrel. And, you know, who among us hasn't stopped at a Cracker Barrel on the way back home from a trip? And with him was his, friend, um,
Starting point is 00:24:05 buff Orfington rooster. I know. I know. I'm sorry, a buff, Orpington, rooster, peep.
Starting point is 00:24:18 So peep is a handsome fellow in keeping with the standards of his heritage breed, heavy with a broad body and low stance, and having a bold, upright and graceful carriage.
Starting point is 00:24:35 He's been the cock of the walk ever since Ramsey found him on the roadside last summer when he was still a young chick. Now, Ramsey's been participating. They go in this whole story about the kid. The kid is 18 years old. They go into this whole story about, you know,
Starting point is 00:24:55 he's been reenacting, and he's taken this rooster with him everywhere, and the rooster's been out there, and usually is carried around in a bag, and then we let him out, and we were, you know, cannons were going off, and I let him out of the bag, and I looked away,
Starting point is 00:25:11 and the next thing I know, I don't know where my rooster is. The rooster is gone. So, you know, all right, fine. And then we find him. And then we bring him along with us, and at the cracker barrel, we let him out,
Starting point is 00:25:23 and the next thing we know, he's gone. All right, we're at the Cracker Barrow parking lot. We don't know what happened to peep. Oh, no. Oh, no. So they start, I mean, they search for him and they look all over and they start asking people. And he's gone, man. He's just gone.
Starting point is 00:25:43 No joke. No joke. So he was panicking. And who would their pet rooster peep had just disappeared. So they called the animal control officer in the area and they, you know, started searching for the rooster. And the animal control officer was dedicated to finding people. I mean, that's good.
Starting point is 00:26:17 He's living in Coleman, Tennessee. What else is he has to do? But, you know, he's doing his job. Good for them. So they couldn't find him. I know. I know he's bummed. So he put up little missing chicken posts and photos on Facebook pages and went around and asking people for this.
Starting point is 00:26:39 And pretty soon he got a post that his rooster had been found. Oh, no. He had returned to the Cracker Barrel parking lot looking for his friend, no doubt, wondering, hey, why would you leave me here? So the man who found him at the Cracker Barrow parking lot reached out to the teenager and said, Hey, I found your rooster. And because it was one of the great things to do and just payback and pay it forward a little bit,
Starting point is 00:27:17 he said, I'll meet you. I'll meet you halfway. And he brought the rooster home to its owner and they are now back together again. Isn't that heartwarming? Isn't it? That's what I thought. That's exactly what I thought you'd say. It is heartwarming. Speaking of heartwarming, America's number two dating app, we've talked about it on the show before, just went public. I know. I know. It's been public for a couple days now. Gaining 63% on the very first day at a close.
Starting point is 00:28:07 And it's like $8 billion valuation now. And we're talking about bubble. Yes, it's the dating app famous for letting women swipe first and initiate conversation. Founder, CEO Whitney Wolf Hurd, created it because she wanted to combat rampant sexual harassment. on dating platforms. Why? Because she had worked for Tinder. She co-founded Tinder and then sued the company for sexual harassment and discrimination.
Starting point is 00:28:38 And that's when she, you know, created Bumble. And Magic Lab soaked it up and then it was bought by Blackstone. Got some money from Magic Lab. And the next thing, you know, it's worth a bunch of money. And she's going to make it public. So the app offers a free tier to. its 12 million monthly active users. But also it gets most of its money for premium subscriptions and in-app purchases.
Starting point is 00:29:10 Wow. In the first nine months of 2020, it posted a net loss of $84 million. And they had $377 million in sales. Wow. Wow. So it's, I mean, it's doing wonderful now. I guess people are back out and about, swiping right on Bumble. So the Bumble has grown because it has BFF, it has BFF, a matchmaking app for friends, biz, Bizz, B IZ, a professional networking platform.
Starting point is 00:29:49 And it has Bumble Fund, which offers early stage investments for women, entrepreneurs of color. Wow. Now, Bumble is not quite up to snuff with Match. You know, the Match Group, which we've talked
Starting point is 00:30:10 about before here. Match Group owns Tinder, Hinge, and OKCupid. $46 billion. Wow. That is amazing. So the Match Group,
Starting point is 00:30:28 Tinder, hinge, an OKCupid, $46 billion. Good for them. Wow. Bumble's on their heels, though. Bumble is on their heels with $8 billion. It does have a little bit of, it's quite the, they might be on the same hill, but somebody's a lot higher on the hill than someone else.
Starting point is 00:30:51 at 31 though the CEO Wolf Hurd youngest woman to take a company public and her 900 million dollar stake pushes her fortune above a billion dollars wow
Starting point is 00:31:10 500 of the wealthiest people in the world self-made women account for just 5% and because so few female founders are CEOs make it to the IPO stage, the tremendous wealth generated through startup exist disproportionately to male investors. Those, I hate male investors so much. I can't take them.
Starting point is 00:31:45 I want them all destroyed there. Are we good now? I don't have to apologize or anything. Because I'm not going to apologize. I just want to know. I want to make sure that it's okay for good with that because, you know, I don't want to apologize. Never bent to me to the rage mob.
Starting point is 00:32:06 And Morgan Wallen, oh, the country guy that said the N-word, oh, my gosh, it's agonizing, and we're sticking up for him. And he says, don't defend me. Okay. You got it. You got it, Morgan. You make your apology to her. and you do whatever you got to do,
Starting point is 00:32:25 you bend the knee to whoever you need to bend the knee to, and you stay sober for as long as you can stay sober, that's fine, but we won't defend you anymore. Okay, when you're struggling and can't make a living, okay, good luck, God bless. I hope that it never has. I hope that your apology tour works
Starting point is 00:32:48 because I know that you fully accept any penalties that you're facing. I know that. But, you know, I wouldn't want anybody to stick up for you because I know you realize what a horrific thing it was for you to just joke around, you know, in context as an inebriated male joking with his friends and using that horrific N-word, I guess that context doesn't matter.
Starting point is 00:33:19 So we won't stick up for you anymore. All right. Good luck. God bless. Oh, well, it seems like maybe chewing the fat was correct. Thank you. Correct again. The WHO, World Health Organization, the chief, says now, Wu Ham Lab Theory needs further study after all. Does it?
Starting point is 00:33:56 Are your people out of China now? It's safe to say that the lab leak was the cause. of the coronavirus? That's how it got into the public. Is it safe to say that now that they're out of China? Right. I know that the leader of the investigation in China just said, well, there's no need for further study of the Wuhan lab leak hypothesis.
Starting point is 00:34:23 Don't worry. That had nothing happened there. And I said maybe they were just trying to get out of the country safely because they were lucky they didn't you know China didn't want them there to begin with and has been putting it off and thwarting this investigation which you know is a questionable term for the world health organization in China but I'll give it to them for this investigation and so I wasn't surprised we were all surprised like what I mean really we're not even it's not even a thought well here we go thank you
Starting point is 00:35:02 so much, look, we considered four main hypotheses. Direct transmission from an animal species to humans. Transmission through an intermediate species. Transmission through cold chain products of frozen foods and a laboratory-related incident. Oh, now the jump from an animal to another animal to humans was the most likely and claimed that an accidental release from a Wuhan lab was extremely unlikely.
Starting point is 00:35:37 Oh, including, you know, indicating the possibility wouldn't be further scrutinized. Yeah, because they wanted to get out of the country alive. And so now that everybody's out, now we're going to say, you know, you know what, that, I'll tell you what, that laboratory related incidents looking pretty good right about now. What do you think? Yeah, do you think maybe it wasn't?
Starting point is 00:36:02 a cold chain product or frozen food that released the coronavirus? Maybe. You think it wasn't a transmission from intermediate species? Maybe. Yeah, probably. Probably came from the lab, you know, it was one thing or another. But we had to say that so that we could get out alive. So once again, chewing the fat.
Starting point is 00:36:27 Proved correct. So here it comes. Here it comes. And again, we've talked about it before on this show, and it's coming faster than we can, well, faster than we really want it, to be honest with you. The White House is considering, it's being reported, that they're considering a restrictions on domestic travel, given the emerging variance of COVID-19. This may include travel restrictions in several states.
Starting point is 00:37:01 you know like Florida you know like California the president is worried about new outbreaks and you know the UK variant could provide setbacks in the fight against the coronavirus and so travel restriction from states
Starting point is 00:37:18 we should be able to well the states are already some states are already doing that right I mean New York has been doing it forever a good job Governor Cuomo by the way for lying to the American people Those of us that actually listened and saw what was going on in your state knew you were lying. It's nice that the mainstream media now realizes it.
Starting point is 00:37:41 But congratulations anyway. Congratulations. And I know you, the author of that powerful book that you wrote, American Crisis Leadership Lessons from the COVID-19 Pandemic. I'm sure we must have missed the story about, you know, the people you forgot to tell us about that you sent to the nursing homes and died. Yeah, you know, what does it matter at this point, right? It's only, I don't know, thousands of people.
Starting point is 00:38:13 That's it, though. Doesn't matter. Just quit your belly aching, okay? They already died. At this point, what difference does it make? Am I right, Andrew? Am I right? Of course I am.
Starting point is 00:38:28 So, they're going to be. going to limit travel from states, but some of the states are already doing that. That's what got me started. Andrew Cuomo was New York. I mean, they were allowing travel, I think, from Connecticut and New Jersey and Pennsylvania could come in and out of New York with no problem. But if you were coming into those states, in particular, you were supposed to, even if you were driving, you were supposed to tell you're supposed to be vaccinated, you're supposed to have
Starting point is 00:38:57 proof of testing negative. So those states were already doing that. We don't need the federal government restricting travel. They're already telling us we talked yesterday about, you know, you have to wear a mask, wherever you, on any public transportation. They didn't say double mask, but of course those CDC recommendations. We saw the president at the National Institute of Health tell us that masking was the most important thing ever. and that it would at least go on for another year.
Starting point is 00:39:33 But he was only single mask. He did not have a double mask on. And that was after the new CDC guidelines. So we'll see after this weekend if he is following the new double masking procedure guidelines from the CDC. We'll see. I mean, it's possible that, you know, that happens. Now, other CDC guidelines have just come out that talked about fully vaccinated. people do not need to quarantine if exposed to COVID-19.
Starting point is 00:40:03 Wow, that's huge. That's huge. Now, they say here that they do not need to quarantine. I wonder if they still have to wear a mask. The CDC defines fully vaccinated as two weeks passing after a person received the second dose of the two-dose vaccine and one dose of the single-dose vaccine. So you've got to be done with it for two weeks. quarantine is not necessary for fully vaccinated people
Starting point is 00:40:33 within three months of having it doesn't sense it going about the masks though fully vaccinated criteria exposure you still have to wear a mask I mean it doesn't say that here but I'm sure that they're going to tell you
Starting point is 00:40:50 yeah you still gotta wear a mask quit your belly it can put your mask on it's better for everybody I love it that Dave Ramsey, because people were belly aching and complaining about what he said during one of his interviews. This wasn't even on his specific show. He was on Fox News in the morning.
Starting point is 00:41:13 And he said that I don't believe in the stimulus check because if you get $600 or $1,400 and it changes your life, you didn't have a life. You're already screwed. Ooh, they people did not like that. They went out of their minds blasted Dave Ramsey. And he was trending on Twitter. And he said that, look, I've been broke. I never even thought then that $600 would change my life. And according to Dave, that's back when $600 was a lot of money.
Starting point is 00:41:52 But he's the only thing he apologized for and he didn't really apologize, which is I love him. I didn't intend to poor shame. I just pointing out that people need to improve their financial standing so they wouldn't depend on a check from the government to improve their lives. Amen. Amen. Speaking of amen. Rest in peace.
Starting point is 00:42:22 Chickoria. I know. You probably think, Chick Korea. Who is Chick Korea? Well, he's a jazz musician, was 79 years old, 23 Grammy Awards for Chick Korea. I love Chick. I listen to a lot of his music.
Starting point is 00:42:40 He worked alongside Miles Davis and Herbie Hancock, and you got to like jazz. I was playing him last night, and my kids are like, I don't know, Jake Korea. My wife is like, oh, of course you're listening to him. I knew you were going to play some of him. I know. Because, I mean, his piano improvisations,
Starting point is 00:42:56 the one and two albums, and they're old now. I don't know when they came out, but I listened to them a lot at one point of my life. It was just a piano all by himself. I loved it. It was great. I love just the piano, just by itself, even not playing.
Starting point is 00:43:15 It was just sitting there, I feel better. I was raised with a piano in my, we always had a piano in our house. Always. And I just, even if it's not being played, I love just having it there. It makes you feel better. Doesn't it?
Starting point is 00:43:30 Yes. Yes is the answer to that. And thank you is the answer from me to Bob, who emailed me at Chewing the Fat at the Blaze.com. He was listening to one of the shows earlier this week where I talked about the villages documentary, some kind of heaven, which I have not seen yet, and I'm really looking forward to it. But he, it'll all unhappy. He's a little unhappy with the old documentary is another disingenuous attempt to denigrate the Morris's.
Starting point is 00:44:05 Okay. Well, nice. He's saying that his experience, and Bob apparently lives in the villages, the vast majority of people here are decent, kind, and well-behaved folks. Beautiful active community with a robust infrastructure of amenities that everyone can use to enjoy their, retirement years. We love it here. And he sent me a bulletin that talks about, you know, what's happening at the villages. They apparently send this, it looks like it's a weekly or maybe
Starting point is 00:44:40 even a daily bulletin out. And we talked about the Morris's, the family that, the elusive billionaire family that runs the villages. I mean, they, you know, own the radio stations and newspapers and the golf cart golf cart companies you're like a golf cart companies yeah they own i think it was like four or five golf car companies nobody else is getting in okay you're buying golf carts from them and them only they're making a fortune bless their hearts i love them i love them and they're just expanding because it was such a great idea so at some point the expansion has got to stop though right I mean, there's only so much of Florida they can have.
Starting point is 00:45:25 Unless you're evil Morris's, then they can take the entire state, which obviously they can't. So, anyway, thanks, Bob, for email me, and I definitely will dig through the weekly bulletin and see what's happening and see what's going on at the old villages. Maybe we can, I may talk about the, we'll see what's going on. It's probably just a basic thing. Every neighborhood has their bulletin, but not like the villages. Okay, so just give me a little, give me the weekend to go over the, you know, to go over the bulletin and then we'll be good to go. All right.
Starting point is 00:46:04 All right, good. That's what I'm talking about. So I told you the one email that I get, a morning update story email that I get, comes with three headlines and a lie, right? So it gives you four headlines, actually, duh. And four headlines add a lie. The four headlines that we'll talk about is that they list here, one of them is a lie. No, Chuckie the Killer Doll isn't on the loose.
Starting point is 00:46:39 Texas officials say after Amber Alert, well, we did that story here on chewing the fat. So you know that it's a true story, right? It was a mistake. Oh, sorry. Uh, yeah, we sent that out by mistake. It was supposed to be just an internal thing. We were testing some new servers. Ah, darn it.
Starting point is 00:46:57 Sorry. So we know that was a true one. The second one is, Seabird poop is worth more than a billion dollars annually. The third one is Wilbur Ross sees future in a SPAC and Trump condos on the moon. The fourth one is inventor of, I can't believe it's not butter,
Starting point is 00:47:21 launches new product. I can't believe it's not vodka. So which one of those headlines is a lie? I'll give you a little, I'll give you a second. All right, that's long enough. It is, I can't believe it's not butter. The inventor of I can't believe is not butter is not launching a new product called
Starting point is 00:47:40 I can't believe it's not vodka. I know. I am with you. I wish it was there. It does make you ask the question, though. does seabird poop actually garner a billion dollars annually? And are we really talking about, you know, Trump condos on the moon? Well, according to this, scientists put a price tag on seabird poop,
Starting point is 00:48:10 which range from agricultural fertilizer to coral reef in richer. That's why you want seabird poop is because you want to. to be, you want to put it together for coral reef in richer. So go out there and get that seabird poop and garners a billion dollars annually. Wilbur Ross has seen the future and he believes that Trump condos on the moon are coming. So yeah, yeah. What do you have to say about that? That's what I thought.
Starting point is 00:48:48 nothing, nothing. So it's going to be cold. Most of the country is facing a big cold snap, a really cold snap. And I know here in DFW, it's supposed to be cold. And, you know, hey, that's where I live. I mean, the show originates here in DFW, so it's going to get really cold. But all of us are being, you know, impacted in one way or another with this polar vortex, you know, a cold front that's, you know, coming down, you know, the Canadian air, polar vortex, Arctic blast is coming down.
