So Apple has now released a study from their iOS health app. I guess it's a clinical study into women's health. back in from two i started tracking people back in 2019 so it's the apple woman's health study they have now affirmed that women do in fact have cramps during their periods

uh we did not need a study to affirm that. I promise you. Welcome to chewing the fat. Well, we just did a study, and, uh, women get cranky during, uh, you know, that time of month, you know, menstruation period. You think so? So the findings, this is just amazing to me that we had to have a study for this.

The findings were from the first. 10,000 participants who enrolled in the study using the iPhone research app and provided the demographic data. 6,141 participants recorded period symptoms and the most commonly tracked were abdominal cramps, 83%, bloating, 63%, tiredness, 61%. Things, I don't know, everyone knows. Half the participants reported acne headaches, mood swings, appetite changes, lower back pain, breast tenderness. Thank you. We really needed this study to tell us all of this information. I mean, incredible. Some of the rarer symptoms included diarrhea, sleep changes, constipation, nausea, hot flashes, and ovulation pain. Now, for you women out there,

I know you're thinking to yourself, geez, that's nice to know. You probably weren't aware of it. And thankfully, Apple and the iOS health app had 6,141 participants who are letting people know that you have this problem. So you don't have to feel alone. One takeaway was that regardless of race, ethnicity, age and geographic location, symptom frequency was nearly universal. Wait, what? Again, I really, I don't know how much money they got for this study.

I'm sure they got a lot of money since they are calling this a clinical study into women's health. they did get some kind of money for this. Guaranteed. This is all study money that they get from the government, so you know that Apple got study money for this and or grant money for this program. Should be titled, Women's Health.

Duh. All right. A university in California, the University of California, Davis, has offered their students cash if they don't go on spring break. Now, it's $75 bucks for the week. If you had plans to go on spring break, would $75 bucks turn you around? Doubtful.

If I'm a student and I'm going on spring break, $75 to not go on spring break isn't going to turn. me around. But I will say that if you were not going away on spring break, you are filing for that 75 bucks, right? So they're giving it to the first 500 qualified entries. And they said, don't wait. Don't wait. Don't wait. To the spring break grant. Limited to the first 500, all non-essential travel should be avoided. And that's what California is saying anyway. So staying local is a good way to do your part in slowing the spread of COVID-19. Oh, okay.

No problem. So, I don't know. It just seems like 75 bucks wouldn't turn me around if I was planning on going to, I don't know, let's say, somewhere warm. Oh, wait, it's in California. I know that Florida, remember back in, March of last year, Governor DeSantis closed down some beaches due to the risk of a virus transmission. This was last March now because the beach was full of people.

And the CDC sent out a travel advisory email, encouraging people to refrain once again from travel during the spring break time periods this year. Okay. I know that the University of Miami has canceled the traditional week-long spring break and scheduled two wellness Wednesdays. Oh, well, they've already had one. I bet it went over great. The next one is April 14th. That's when classes are going to be canceled and students are going to be allowed to participate in activities such as yoga and other outdoor activities.

Man, does that sound fun? If I'm at the University of Miami, am I counting down the day? am I counting down the days until the next wellness Wednesday? Oh, man, you've got to be kidding. But anyway, good for them. Good for them. Plus, now, yesterday I saw a story where a couple of guys got busted in Georgia coming to Florida from Michigan,

and they had some drugs in the car. I'm guessing they were getting ready to make a little cash during spring break. and they got busted in Georgia. Now, I will say, these guys seem to be a little dumb. Seemed to be a little dumb. Now, they were arrested for possession of Schedule 1 controlled substances with intent to distribute. Oh, okay. So they had a variety of smoking devices, approximately 50 vape pen cartridges,

containing THC oil. The search also revealed prescription medications. Doesn't say whether it was theirs or not. And they were using marijuana. And the Georgia Jones County Sheriff, Butch Reese said, just a friendly reminder, while the use of marijuana is becoming more commonplace,

it is still illegal. Okay. thank you appreciate it no problem sheriff we appreciate it but this is where they were dumb

okay this is where drugs make you dumb um the deputy pulled them over because the vehicle was without a rear license plate i don't know if one was in the rear window and he just used that as an excuse to pull them over there just you know wasn't where the license

place was supposed to go or they actually didn't have a rear license plate. Now, either way, you know, it's supposed to be on the back of the vehicle. So they pulled them over. The deputy, according to the story, noticed an odor of marijuana from the vehicle. Another unit provided assistance and the deputy conducted a search. So he calls in another unit and says, we got to search the car. and that's when they found the smoking devices containing THC and the prescription medications and the marijuana. So good luck, God bless, and that's a little, you know, while it doesn't seem like a lot, that is some controlled substances that perhaps would be purchased during spring break that will not be purchased during spring break because they will not be available.

I know, I know. Kind of a bummer and might make you think of taking up the 75 bucks from the university instead of, you know, going down to Florida for your spring break. All right, we have another study, too. And this is from Yochi Yusa at Nara Woman's University. So it's another study with women. It's published in, the new current biology and who doesn't get current biology i can't wait until the arrival of

each and every new current biology that i get in the mailbox so anyway they uh they found that uh these new sea slugs it's several species of sea slugs can regrow their own heads after decapitation. Uh, okay, we need to figure that out for sure. So a student was reportedly examining the, uh, the invertebrates in the lab when several of the slugs removed their own heads. And then they re-grew them back. So I guess the slugs realize, oh my, man, do I have a headache?

And they ripped their head off. then they grow a new head. So the student said, hey, is that a fluke? So they took 16 sea slugs and they cut their heads off. Six of the 16, not all. Six of the 16 initiated the regrowth process. Only three of them successfully sprouted a new dome.

And one slug lost. and regenerated its body twice. So I think, you know, look, I am not a scientist, and I only, you know, I only delve into the, you know, the publication, current biology. But it would seem that when they do it, they do it correctly. When you do it, when Yochi Yusa or the student just chops off their ass, they aren't quite ready for it, and they're like,

And then, of course, you know, 10 of the 16 didn't grow back. They were, I don't know if you want to use the word, but I will. They were dead and they didn't regrow. But that's pretty cool that we actually found something that could shed their whole body, pull their head off, and grow a new body. They figured that they, you know, how could they survive without a heart, right? But I guess they figured that they figured. that because they have, you know, they have a habit of photosynthesizing food from sunlight like a plant.

They, you know, the heads harness the energy from the oxygen and the sunlight. And then, you know, they grew a new head or new body. Pretty cool. If we could find out, you know, what causes that? And maybe we could start, you know, they have plenty. There are animals that grow, you know, new legs and arms and other appendages, but nothing that, you know, pulls their head off and regrows like that. So it'd be nice to figure that out.

Wouldn't it? Oh, man. Lost my head. Oh, let me grow a new one. No problem. Oh, lost my arm. Let me grow a new one. It'd be kind of cool to have that technology.

Now, I will say that we did find out from the 1993 documentary, Jurassic Park, from Dr. Ian Malcolm, that... Life finds a way. So there's that. And, you know, I know that these Japanese sea slugs, it may be because of where they come from, who knows, but it is good information to have, and I can't wait to find out if we can just start chopping off heads and body parts

and regrowing them. That would be cool. And I'll tell you, who would love to be able to grow new body parts is Dak Prescott. I mean, it doesn't matter. Sure, he had a compound fracture and dislocated his right ankle, and then had a second surgery to improve the stability and integrity of the ankle. but it didn't matter because he just signed a new deal for a hundred and sixty million dollars

one hundred and twenty six million dollars guaranteed good for him i mean that's a wow that's a good deal man and he got a signing bonus of 66 million dollars that would be tough to take that would be tough to take that would be tough to take. And really, I mean, I know that we have, you know, Mahomes and Deshawn Watson and Russell Wilson, who along with Dak, who are the highest paid quarterbacks in the NFL. And they're all African American. They're all black men. So I don't know if it's time to maybe put a rest on that whole, you know,

the NFL is racist talk. But anyway. Uh, he's almost the same as Patrick, who is the highest paid because of taxes, because he lives in, uh, Texas. When they broke it down, it looked like, uh, looked like Patrick would end up with about 52 million. And, uh, uh, DAC would get about 46.6. That's what they would pay federal tax wise. So you're looking at, uh, net wages of DAC was 75.6 and Mahomes was 75.8. That's a pretty good deal. That's a pretty good deal for DAC.

And congratulations. You know, good deal. Happy for you. But I don't really know if you're worth it. But if you could get somebody to make the deal like the Dallas Cowboys with Jerry Jones at the head, then you are. are worth it, aren't you? Yes, absolutely.

So, congratulations. All right, let's go to the break room. I need something cold to drink after finding out that DAC has got a four-year deal for $160 million and 66 million signing bonus and $126 million guaranteed. It doesn't matter. It doesn't matter at all. It'll be okay.

at 126 million no matter what happens. Congratulations. All right. I was going to break up. I was going to tell you so good, didn't you? That's what I thought. But, well, it was. So if you're listening to this program right now

Wow. Now, he was stormed off the other day. So maybe he was done with the show.

You know, maybe he had, you know, figured he was, you know, done with doing the stupid show to begin with. But he storms off and then, uh, have a nice day. It's over. Right. So they confirmed in a statement that following discussions with ITV, Pierce Morgan has decided it's time to leave Good Morning Britain. And we've accepted this decision.

There's nothing further to add. Wow. So, I mean, we're not saying anything. It's just, yep, he's going to, we told him, you need to resign. He did. We accepted it. Have a nice day. That's it.

Wow. over the royals interview. Okay. All right. I mean, he was all for the Royals, right? I mean,

he was beaten up on Megan and Harry, and he had questions, and people were not happy about that at all. Well, at least, you know, 41,000 people wrote in to complain. I would like to, you know, see that documentation if I was him.

But, you know, you got to believe him, right? And let's be clear, I mean, he came back after he stormed off and said, hey, when we talked about this, I don't believe what Megan Markle is saying generally in this interview. And I have serious concern about a lot of what she said. But he also said, let me state for the record, my position on mental illness and suicide. These are clearly extremely serious things

and should be taken extremely seriously. And if someone is feeling that way, they should get the treatment and the help they need every time. And if they belong to an institution like the royal family, and they need to go and seek that help, they should absolutely be given it. And remember, she said she asked for it and they told her that she wasn't a paid employee

so they couldn't give it to her. Well, are you telling me? And I think we talked about this yesterday. Are you telling me that Harry and Meghan Markle, Prince Harry and Megan Markle, can't get some kind of help because the Royals, the institution, the firm, won't pay for it? Are you kidding me? Come on now. Come on.

Come on. So not long ago, before the interview, you know, the over the overview, you know, the Oprah interview. There was a study that talked about 45% of the people believed that Prince Harry and Megan had let down the royal family. And 43% of the people claim that they think less of the royal couple now than they did last year. This was in February of this year, 2021.

Now we have a latest survey that talks about, This was after the sit down now. They gathered feedback from a new survey of a little over 12,000 British people. And 50% of those asked think the interview will ultimately hurt Markle and Prince Harry. And only 23% believing it will work in their favor. So I guess the other 26% was, I don't know. And 40% of those people are also of the opinion that the couple failed to live up to their royal responsibility. And 66% think that the former royals deserve to have their honorary titles and royal patroners taken away from them.

Yeah, no kidding. Only 44% of the members of the public poll believe that the press was too relentless in their coverage of the couple. 36% deciding the media was just doing their job. And 58% of the people surveyed agreed that it's time for the British people to stop obsessing over the royal family. Wow. So, I mean, that's, that's not good. That's not good for the Queen, which was why she needs to, she's been playing kind of nice. Just, we love them and we're moving on.

Because as far as she's concerned, keep obsessing. Keep obsessing. Speaking of obsessing, I see where Disney Plus has now gone over 100 million subscribers. I know the big talk is it took Netflix six years to get over $100 million. And they now, you know, they just not long ago went over $200 million. But, and I know that they, you know, I know what's his face from Netflix had talked about Reed Hastings, the CEO, said that he didn't think that they would hit over $60 million in the first year. well, I mean, they, you know, initially said that they were going to get 60 or 90 million in the first three or four years, but they went way past that.

Now they're projecting 230 to 260 million in that same time frame. I don't know that I buy that. But I do buy that it's because of things like Netflix that Disney Plus was able to jump in and grow that fast. It wasn't, they're not up against Netflix. I mean, they're working, you know, intent. them. So, you know, that's really impressive and good for them. But they definitely have got to turn the thinking around now about what programming they're going to do and the content that they're going to be creating because they've got, we've got all these, these, these subscribers, and they're going to

want content. And they're going to want more content than, you know, looking at Dumbo and the aristocrats and Peter Pan being, well, they weren't canceled. They were just put on the back burner. And they were just, you have to go through a, they moved from the kid section. And then there's also, you know, their disclaimer at the beginning of the movie. But they, you know, and then, you know, their CEO said, we're not left leaning or right leaning. Oh, really? that's really strange

that's really strange I mean it doesn't it makes sense that that's how they see themselves because that's the same way that you know Apple and Netflix and Amazon

YouTube Google they all see themselves as well we're not left leading we're right leaning we're right down the middle this is a free market system

working and it's a free speech and we're just making sure that everything is is okay and there's no harsh words between any people anywhere oh okay all right then you know good for you okay good for you speaking to good news kandis owens looks like she's going to have a new show on the daily wire launching on the 19th of march 2021 friday night and that's where the show's going to be every friday She's going to record a new show every Friday in front of a live audience in Nashville, Tennessee. And this is part of The Daily Wire. And it is behind the paywall.

It is not going to be up on YouTube or any other entity. It is going to be behind the paywall on the Daily Wire. So it's going to be an interview with a guest and a panel discussion. and she says that it's going to be, you know, funny. Now, I know it's kind of like a Bill Maher kind of set up. It's what it kind of sounds like. Okay, we'll see. We'll see.

You know, she said it's going to focus on humor. It's going to be funny. It's going to be lighthearted. And she said it's going to be hopeful. All right, good. I hope that's the case. I hope it is. And look, you have Bill Maher,

who comes through from time to time. on HBO with, you know, you go, see, that's why I like them. And then a lot of times you realize, man, Bill, how can you believe that? And John Oliver, which is agonizing, Trevor Noah, agonizing. And so are the other late night Dingleberry hosts just agonizing these days. And they're going to be more agonizing now that Trump has gone, man, because they got new beating up on Trump. Anyway, she, uh, she, uh, she's, going to start that this month in March of 2021.

So good luck to Candice. I hope the show works out. And look, they just inked a deal with Gina Carano too. We talked about her, you know, with Disney Plus, right? And getting the boot from the Mandalorian. And now she signed a deal with Daily Wire to create a new film. So, which I'm sure will be available behind the paywall. So that's, you know, good for them.

Congratulations. I hope it all works out. I like Candice. I don't know her that well, but she's, you know, she's been really nice and I've met her a couple of times. So, you know, I hope it works out for her. And in hacker news,

hackers doing what hackers do. Hackers doing what hackers do, hack, okay? After disclosing that Chinese hackers infiltrated Microsoft's, exchange email server from, you know, stolen emails.

And it's sure they installed backdoors to the Fryfest sequel, but an estimated 60,000 organizations are compromised, including a lot of U.S. small businesses and local governments. Huh. Really? Yeah. That's it, though.

Tens of thousands of Asian and European organizations also affected, including the European Bank, authority. That's it though. So according to Microsoft, they've issued security patches, which users must manually install to prevent further intrusions. Oh, okay. But I, you know, if different hacker groups are now also exploiting Microsoft clients

who haven't secured their systems, five different hacker groups are now exploiting the clients that haven't secured their systems. So hackers are doing what hackers do. They hack, they sell off some info, and those new hackers hack some more. That's it, though. That's it, though.

And what, look, what else could hackers do but hack? Right? I mean, that's what they do. Like the hacker group that broke into California's security company, their California-based security company, and they gained access to 150,000, surveillance cameras in prisons, police stations, and international Tesla facilities. That's it, though.

That's it. That is it. I mean, really? It's just, it's an easy explanation. Hackers doing what hackers do. Oh, and don't forget about the, you know, The Solar Winds hacked. That compromised about 18,000 organizations and several U.S. agencies.

You know, that's it, though. So there's just three examples of hackers doing what hackers do. It's not even funny. It's not even if you think for, I mean, I have ExpressVPN and I love it. And, you know, I hope it, I really, I believe that it helps a lot. and it certainly helps in, you know, keeping your searches blocked. And, you know, if you think that your information, though, is not out there in the world, you're wrong.

You are so wrong. And I don't know if there is a fix anymore. It's a sad. I want to be hopeful. Candice wants to do a show on being hopeful. But, you know what? It is hopeful because. It's not everybody.

It was only, we did three stories and you've got, what, 150,000, 200,000, 300,000. You got maybe what? Maybe, you know, a few hundred thousand businesses, organizations, companies, and individual that are, you know, been hacked. So, ah, it's not everybody on the planet. So don't worry about it.

There is hope. Quit your whining. Speaking of hope, you could probably still get Derek Jeter's home, or one of his homes, the Lakefront Castle, in New York, for a lot cheaper than what he originally wanted for it. Now, he started asking $14.75 million a couple years ago. Then he took it off the market, and now he'd just put it back on the market again, shaven $2 million off the top.

So it's 12.75 million. I bet you you could get it for probably 10. Derek wants to unload this bad boy. So if you could, you walk up to Derek with 10 million, you've got your house. I, you know, I don't know that for sure, obviously. But I would say, yeah, you do. So you got six bedrooms, 12 bathrooms,

more than 12,000 square feet. The castle. and a lakehouse, each features turrets with stairs that lead to the widow's walk from which guests, and they could, you know, could see the lake and the grounds. Both homes were built in the 1900s with the castle higher on the hill

and the lakehouse right on the water. And they've got stone fireplaces and the mill work. It's been restored wherever possible. It's reclaimed wood was brought in to replicate parts of the moldings that could not be saved. The main floor features a great room, formal dining room, bar, game room. One of the estates, four gourmet kitchens. And there's also an outdoor kitchen.

It's got 700 feet on the lake. You've got extensive gardens, water features. You've got a waterfall, a lagoon, an elephant fountain that sprays water from the animal's trunk. The infinity pool that overlooks the lake. Plus, there's a pool hub. and a large terrace. They have a replica of the Statue of Liberty also on display

next to the water. So, I mean, it's well worth $12.5 million, which is why, you know, $14.75 million was a little much. But $12.75 million, not $12.5, I'm sorry.

$12.75 million is a little bit better price. But you could probably walk up to Derek. Walk up to Derek. right now down in Florida and say hey Hall of Famer I'm the one guy that didn't vote for you I thought you should be in the Hall of Fame I just didn't want you to get in

with that unanimous vote yeah I'll give you a 10 million for the castle for the castle property what do you say I would almost guarantee Derek would say it's yours some few headlines that you Can take with you just so you have them, just so you know them. You know about them, Unilever, the consumer goods giant, removing the word normal from its packaging to be more inclusive. So nice of them.

Boeing last month received more orders for its planes than cancellations for the first time since November of 2019. That's good news for Boeing. That doesn't make it perfect for Boeing. for pharmaceutical companies are using tax breaks. And of course they are. I don't know why this is such a big deal, but you know why it's a big deal is because of the billions of dollars that they all settled in the opioid crisis.

And we've talked about all those settlements. I mean, it was well over $20 billion. I mean, it was probably closer to $30 billion in their role in the opioid crisis. Yeah, you know how the pharmaceutical companies were making those drugs? Anyway, don't even. We've covered that on the program. And online game platform Roblox going public today

via direct listing. It's only valued at $29.5 billion in January. So, you know, good luck to them. And Larry the cable guy goes off on commie stupidity. The Pepe Lepewes cancellation. His quote,

These cancel morons literally have mental problems. Push back, folks. Seriously. We're neck deep in comie stupidity. Just say no to thugs. All right, Larry. Thank you. Good luck.

Pushing that narrative. And this book, we've got to read this book and I want to talk to someone. I'd love to talk to this author, The Hidden History of Coined Words. Ralph Keys is, I guess he is known as the word nerd. I would love to talk to Ralph about his new book, The Hidden History of Coined Words. I was looking at some of the words in the book that, you know, he talks about retro language and euphonisms and where words came from.

Like frenemies. Frenemies came from a 1953 column from Walter Winchell. How's about calling the Russians are, frenemies. Wow. Now, he's obviously spelled it differently than what we spell it today, but that's where it came from in 1953. How about booty call? I mean, we all know what booty call is, right? We all know what a booty call is. But apparently the hip-hop duo Deuce, D-U-I-C-E in 1993, said in the mid-1980s, he and his friends used pay phones to call that booty, later shortened to making booty calls.

And the screenwriter of the 1997 movie, Booty Call, said in the early 80s, he and his pals would make what they called late-night booty calls from bar phone booth. And a booty, apparently slang for, you know, genitalia, a play on the body. Fats Waller co-wrote and recorded us. song, Come and Get It in 1941 with the line I've got to get myself some booty.

So there's that. A wimps, the word wimp. In 1897, British children's book author Evelyn Sharp introduced a group of children who pulled pranks on others

but broke into tears when the same was done to them. She called them Wimps, WIMPS. Respelled obviously Wimps, WIMPS. It was applied to all manner of feckless individuals. Pretty cool. Gung Ho

came during World War II. I guess in China, a slogan used by the Chinese worker soldier was Kong, meaning work and hoe, together. And I'm a Marine Colonel used it for the Battle Cry for the Marine Raiders in the 1943 Hollywood film Gung Ho about the you know the Macon Island Raid and

the Pacific so you know it's just how you know it was in a movie and you know showed up right I mean that's what the deal is I loved how they the the explanation of nylon nylon you know N Y L-O-N and DuPont first developed their new synthetic fiber. Its chemical name was Polyexamylmalitha... All right. Polyhexamagin adipamide, 9-6-6.

Yeah, see? It's just that easy. Polyhexamagin adipamide, nylon-66. Hello? So since that didn't really catch on, they decided to use a working name of Fiber 66.

Now, the president of the company said, maybe we ought to call it Delaware for, you know, his home state. Another one was an acronym for DuPont pulls a rabbit out of the hat called Duparu. And then one of the naming committees

suggestions was no run, but the fabric did run. So then they thought, well, maybe Neuron brought on a moron to mind. And then nylon was closer and could be pronounced in different ways. And finally, which was nylon, N-I-L-O-N. And then they said, hey, how about nylon and Y-L-O-N? And it stuck.

I don't know how you, I don't know what makes you get to nylon. I mean, they're trying to explain it. They went from, they went from no run. to no run to neuron to neuron to moron to nylon to nylon okay if that gets you there good good no problem saran rap the dal chemical chemist jack riley named it for his wife sarah and his daughter anne oh that's so nice Saran wrap. Oh, isn't that so special? It is, really.

It really is. Don't forget about Bluetooth, right? The wireless technology we all call Bluetooth, and we know what it is. We've talked, I think we've talked about this before, actually. So it was named after the Scandinavian King who united Denmark and Norway. And the king was nicknamed Bluetooth for his tooth was, you know, had been so decayed that it looked blue. but they used it as just a placeholder. They said, well, we'll just call it Bluetooth for now after the king,

and then we'll figure something out. And knew. It was too late then. It was already Bluetooth, and that's what we were going with. Tabloid. We all know what tabloids are, especially after the, you know, Prince and Princess interview with Oprah. And I'm sorry, they're not Prince and Princesses anymore.

Well, he will always be the Prince. All right. I mean, he's always, hello, he's hairy. Hello. grandson to know son of the king and soon to be brother of the king grandson of the queen

so sooner or later sooner or later daddy's got to become king right I mean who's going to die first mom or dad the mom or son because you know that she's waiting she's waiting to the bitter end and she does not want Charles to be king

and he's wanting to be king for ever for her. But the bad news to that is that she's living to be, you know, 150, and he's going to live that old. So they're just, you know, waiting for who gets in. And that, that puts William into a tough spot because William's like, oh, no, I got to wait until I'm 70 or 80 to be king.

Oh, that one hurts. So anyway, sooner or later, Harry's brother and father should be king. Anyway, tabloid So It's the You know, it's the You know Fun with his headlines

Got his name from medicine In the 1880s A British company Came out with a medicine Compressed into a tablet Which trademarked the name Tabloid The smaller size

Compressed Papers Took on that description They just started calling it Oh, that's all those are tabloids There's smaller papers Just like the smaller pills Oh, okay. So, and it's just interesting to me to know where all these words came from.

I really, I'm going to try to talk to this guy's awesome. Ralph Keyes and the new book, The Hidden History of Coined Words. Got to talk to him. We got to find out about more words where they come from and other slang words in the book. It should be fun. Should be fun. So just a couple of things political. in today's chewing the fat, and I try to avoid it from time as much as I can,

but we know that we have President Biden speaking tomorrow, and it's not a press conference. I don't know where people are thinking this is a press conference. It's just him speaking on the anniversary of coronavirus, and he's going to try to sell that he's fine, right? And I know that we just had a new survey. 50% of likely voters said they are not confident that Joe Biden is physically and mentally up to the job of being president of the United States. Wow. That is not good.

So he needs to make a big stand with this speech tomorrow night. He's got Vice President Harris calling world leaders. You know, if I'm a world leader, I don't care what country. It doesn't matter, you know, what country. I mean, most countries are smaller than ours anyway. But if you're a leader of your country and though you get a call from the United States of America and it's Vice President Kamala Harris when you're expecting the president, Joseph Robinette Biden and you get her, I'd be pissed. I would be pissed. I don't know if it matters, you know.

so whatever. But to me, if I was a world leader, which, you know, far cry, that'll never happen. But I would be pissed. I would say, if we put Joe on, what do you think? Where is Mr. President in whatever language I'd be speaking? Because I probably wouldn't be speaking English. But if I were to be speaking English as another world leader, I would be pissed. And tell Kamala, hey, nice talking to you, Mr. Vice President or Ms.

Mr. Vice President or the Vice President, however you identify. But put the president on. Not Mr. President, because we can't call him Mr. anymore. But put the president on because I'm a world leader, and I don't expect you to talk to my underlings until we've talked. So put the man on. Right? I just, whatever.

It's not, I don't think it's a good look. I don't think it's a good look. Now, she might be telling him, look, Joe is babbling, eating jello in the back room. And you got me or you got nothing. So maybe they're happy with it. I don't know. I don't know.

We'll see how it goes tomorrow night, what he looks like. I mean, there's certainly been footage of him out and about and making little speeches where he seems not all there. It does not look good for him. So let's get him medicated up. Put the makeup on and, you know, put the vizine in. and let's get him looking good tomorrow night for the American people. Let's record it in the middle of the day.

So it looks live, but it's not because if we make a mistake, we can go back and edit it in time. If he starts to drift off, we can reel him back in and edit it. And then we'll be good. And so it looks strong and good for the American people because that is not a good look. And of course, everyone's all wound up about him coming out in favor of this pro act, which everyone wants, you know, all the unions are for. For the, I don't know, few million people in the United States, I don't know how many people are freelancers now in America.

And 57, 60 million people are freelancers and independent contractors in America. And according to all reports, this Pro Act would not be good. for the independent contractor. And if that's true, man, if they pass that, it's going to hurt a lot of Americans. You can quote me on that, by the way. You can quote me on that. And he's all four unions, man.

He just gave him a bunch of money in the COVID bill. So now that everybody's got their money, maybe he can slide off and say, no. So 40% of the gig economy, according to this, workers earning more than 100,000 annual, 35%, make from 50 to 100,000. I mean, that's what was driving the economy the last four years was this gig economy, right?

So, holy cow, if they shut that down, we are in trouble. We are in trouble. Say your prayers. Say your prayers. Did that just come from chewing the fat? It did, and I mean it.
