Starting point is 00:00:00 Wait, what? Traces of a chemical tied to blood cancers, including leukemia, have been detected in dozens of popular sunscreens. Oh, okay. So a online pharmacy, Lab Valiasher, did some tests, and they found benzene, which is a known carcinogen, found in 78 of nearly 300 sprays and lotions that they tested, including products sold by Banana Boat and CVS. Interesting. Really interesting, isn't it?
Starting point is 00:00:41 In a petition, the company has asked the FDA to recall these contaminated batches. The FDA, of course, takes seriously any safety concerns raised about products that we regulate, including sunscreen. So, I mean, we're on it. We're on it. Don't you worry about it. So don't forget that trace levels of benzene can be found in cigarette smoke, gasoline, glues, adhesives, cleaning products, and paint strippers.
Starting point is 00:01:11 That's it, though. So don't you worry about it. Lots with the highest contaminations are sold across four different popular brands, Neutrigina, Sunbum, I get my sunscreen from Sunbum, CVS Health, Fruit of the Earth. Now, not all of the aforementioned brands products were found to contain benzene.
Starting point is 00:01:37 And the story lists the products found to contain and not to contain benzene. And there included all throughout this story. Now, I will say that companies, like Johnson & Johnson, the maker of Neutrogena, said, uh, no, that is not an ingredient in any of our personal care products. The maker of Banana Boat defended its products as well, stating that our Suncare products undergo rigorous testing
Starting point is 00:02:06 to ensure safety and quality to meet all FDA regulations. CVS said that products they sell are safe, and we are in the process of reviewing and evaluating information in the related to evaluators petition, and we will respond accordingly. Now, my company, Sunbum, told CBS News, to further ensure the quality of our products, we will work with suppliers to understand
Starting point is 00:02:32 how trace amounts may have been detected. Thank you. Thank you so much. Now, this doesn't mean you shouldn't stop using sunscreen products. Okay. No, no, no, no, no, no. Do not do that. We're heading into the summer months, so just understand that, you know, we're looking into it. And you should be fine.
Starting point is 00:02:59 Don't worry about it. But don't stop using sunscreen. Okay. All right. No problem. I believe you. Welcome. Welcome to chewing the fat.
Starting point is 00:03:14 For Health News, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, again, the FDA. cautioned people with seafood allergies to resist the urge to munch on cicadas. Okay, no problem. I'm resisting. Yeah, don't eat cicadas if you're allergic to seafood as these insects share a family relation to shrimp and lobsters. So don't do it. Don't munch on cicadas. That's all I'm telling you.
Starting point is 00:03:49 And the FDA is saying, take it easy if you're, you know, allergic to these particular foods because it's a problem for you. Okay. People with seafood allergies should avoid cicadas. So if you think, this is just me speaking now, I'm not speaking for the U.S. FDA. I'm just speaking for chewing the fat with Jeff Fisher. I would go ahead and resist eating cicadas no matter what, because it's possible. I mean, it's possible you're allergic to them. So just go ahead and use caution.
Starting point is 00:04:32 In fact, you know what? Throw caution to the wind. Throw caution right to the wind and just don't eat them at all. You don't even have to resist. Just say no. More safety news. We're starting off the show with safety news for you and your family. I didn't realize seven asteroids are zooming past Earth this week.
Starting point is 00:04:56 Now, we've already had some Zoom pass, so we're safe from those, and there's still more coming. But we had the one Zoom past Earth on Tuesday. That was 2021 KT1. That was the one that was about as big as the Washington Monument. or the Eiffel Tower. So that one, that one was classified as potentially hazardous. And that passed us, I don't know.
Starting point is 00:05:24 That was like four or five million miles from the earth. Then, um, we have another one that is classified, uh, as potentially hazardous object. That is, uh, 2021 KTI one. That one flew by already. Uh,
Starting point is 00:05:42 so we're good. Um, And then there's a few more that are flying by. Amazing that we're just finding out about it now. And they're just rocks that are 4 billion years old. They're passing by Earth this week, too. They're smaller than the 2021 KT1. Because 2021 KT2 is really small.
Starting point is 00:06:07 It's no big deal. And it came with, wait, what? Asteroid 2021 KT2. passed by on Tuesday. That one, oh, the one in 2018 came within 181,000 miles and 640,
Starting point is 00:06:24 694,000 miles. Wait a minute. That's pretty close. I don't know about 181,000 miles. That's a shave. As far as space miles go. You know, four or five million I'm good with. 181,000, that could hit us.
Starting point is 00:06:41 I don't like that. I just want to say I'm on record is saying, I don't like that. Now, we also have to be on the lookout for an asteroid called 41077-20-20-209 F-D. And I am concerned about 41077-207-209 FD. Now, that has a... chance of 0.2% of hitting the earth. But that's in 2,185, the year 2185.
Starting point is 00:07:30 Oh, okay. So we don't have to worry till then. Well, we do we have to kind of worry, you know, because there's going to be other stuff coming, you know, and flying by. And we can't see them all. In the documentary, Armageddon, we were told why we can't see them all when the president inquired to the actor Billy Bob Thornton, who was playing the head of the NASA Space Shuttle program, why we didn't see these things coming. Dan, we didn't see this thing coming?
Starting point is 00:08:04 Well, our object collision budget's a million dollars. That allows us to track about 3% of the sky and begging your partner, sir, but it's a big-ass sky. Now I'm guessing, and I don't know this for a fact that our object collision budget is a little bit more than a million dollars now, but I could be wrong and it could still be at a million or less because we hear all the time, yeah, we didn't see that asteroid coming, but there it is and where you're going to be fine, so don't worry about it. So just saying, heads up. One other breaking story, Medina Spirit tested positive again for it. steroid bethamethythosone in beta metazone.
Starting point is 00:08:46 I'm sorry, betha methazone is different stuff. He didn't test positive for that. Sorry, Kentucky Derby and Bob Baffert, but he tested positive for the steroid beta methazone. And Baffert has been suspended for two years. The next step, the Kentucky Horse Rating Commission will be, will be disqualifying Medina Spirit. and now he will not win the money and Bafford is out. Baffert's not going to be able to enter any horses in the derby
Starting point is 00:09:21 or other races at the story track through the spring of 2023. Wow. Reckless practices and substance violations that jeopardize the safety of our equine and human athletes or compromise the integrity of our sport are not acceptable. as a company, we must take measure to demonstrate that they will not be tolerated. That was Churchill Downs, CEO, Bill Karsitengen. He said that in a statement. Mr. Baffert's record of testing failures threatens public confidence in thoroughbed racing.
Starting point is 00:09:59 Yeah, because there's great confidence in thoroughbed racing, Bill. But given these repeated failures over the last year, including the increasingly extraordinary explanations, we firmly believe that Asserting our rights to impose these measures is our duty and responsibility. So all the money that the owner got for winning, gone. There's still a shot that come out of this looking okay, though. And how is that, Jeff? Because it doesn't look really good for Bob or the horse or the owner. Now, the second test came back with more picograms than the first test.
Starting point is 00:10:35 The second test showed 25 picograms of the steroid, 21 picograms were found in the first sample. What they're saying, according to Bafford and his attorneys, is that it was a salve. It was an ointment that was rubbed on. And the reason that beta metazone is banned is because it's injected into a joint. And they want you to not inject the joints so close to a race. So if it's a salve and it can be proven scientifically that it was a salve, then that should help some of the outcome.
Starting point is 00:11:13 I don't know. I don't know. We'll see. I don't even know if they can prove that it comes from a sal. And the way Baffert handled it in the beginning. And then he said, you know, that ointment we put on, that's what it was. It was the ointment. So we'll see.
Starting point is 00:11:29 There's more investigation to go on. And we'll see the outcome of that. But for now, Baffert will be suspended for two years at the derby. And we'll see fallout from other tracks probably as well. well, and Medina Spirit will be disqualified as the Kentucky Derby winner. All right. All right. We want to make sure that we keep the integrity of horse racing strong, right, Bill?
Starting point is 00:11:57 So we've had a lot of news about hackers and cyber security hackers, to be exact, in the last month. And now we have news that a ransomware attack targets Martha's Vineyard and, Nantucket Ferrys. We have a report that the MTA in New York was hacked. They claim that it did not gain access to systems that control train cars and rider safety was not at risk. Right. And that the intrusion appeared to have done little, if any, damage. Right.
Starting point is 00:12:33 After the JBS attack, we don't know what they paid, if they paid, how much they paid, but they're coming back online. And so the supply chain for JBS meat is, you know, still okay, I guess. You know, I know they talked in one story that it was aluminum yesterday, beef today, pork tomorrow, expect more of these attacks to be happening. Okay, no problem. And since our White House is on it. Our White House is on it.
Starting point is 00:13:03 They're taken care of us. Don't worry. And Newberger, Cybersecurity Advisor at the next. National Security Council, who I am a huge fan of the National Security Council and the Cybersecurity Advisor. When you think of cybersecurity advisors, you think of Ann Newberger. I mean, you actually might. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:13:29 But she has said the threats are serious and they are increasing. We urge you to take these critical steps to protect your organizations and the American public. Oh, thank you. the recent cyber attacks have forced companies to see ransomware is a threat to core business operations and not just data theft well yeah and it hasn't been just the recent ones there and new burger it's been we've we talked about our man who negotiates with these cyber terrorists he's been doing that now for quite some time and he talked about how the attacks were on the companies we covered this we talked about our man in uh i think he was offices were in new Jersey. Anyway, it's a great article in the New Yorker, but he negotiates with the cyber terrier. So it's attacking companies and they attack the companies and they say, we'll take $150,000 and we'll put you back online. And then you negotiate them down to $75,000 or $50,000 or whatever
Starting point is 00:14:25 the number is, whether you have cybersecurity insurance or whether the company is just going to pay them outright and they work a deal, you pay them, and you move on. And they put you back online. So, okay. I mean, they're just getting greedy now. The pandemic is over. There's more and more companies available to be hacked, and they're hacking them. And we've had hacks from Russian actors. We've had hacks from Chinese hackers, actors, we've had hacks from North Korean actors. I mean, they're just, it's a, it's turning into a worldwide epidemic. We've got a new pandemic, it's called cyber security. Yay! Or actually, uh, no cyber security. You need cybersecurity. So what would you? You may have heard of the sex cult nexium and the famous actress who
Starting point is 00:15:17 went to prison for her involvement, Alison Mack. But she's never told her side of the story until now. People assume that I'm like, this pervert. My name is Natalie Robamed and in my new podcast, I talked to Allison to try to understand how she went from TV actor to cult member. How do you feel about having been involved in bringing sexual trauma at other people. I don't even know how to answer that question. Allison After Nexium from CBC's Uncover is available now on Spotify. Because that's not what you call it though, is it? Ah, whatever.
Starting point is 00:15:47 Let's go to the break room. I need a drink. You call it whatever the heck you want. I need a drink. All right, we're in the break room. So let's go to the chewing the fat told you so. it's a chewing the fat prediction come true. Chris Harrison won't be returning to Front ABC's Bachelor in Paradise.
Starting point is 00:16:13 Ah, there you go. I told you. I told you back in February when he announced that he was going to step away for an unspecified period of time. And of course, we're going to get things resolved. And of course, I'll be back. Will you? Will you, Chris? no you won't anytime this kind of thing happens they are gone it's over no way you fight back
Starting point is 00:16:41 so the bachelor now remember and he got in trouble for that stupid stupid old south plantation themed party comment on some podcast it was just terrible and i mean he should not have been in trouble for it but you know what they are eating their own now and so it's kind of tough to be on their side. It's really tough. Now, David Spade is looking to take his place on The Bachelor and, you know, everybody thought, David, David, David, Wade. He's, I guess, a super fan. I've seen some of his stuff on his Instagram account. I do follow him. He's pretty funny. He does some, he does some funny stuff on his Instagram account. And so he's a super fan of the Bachelor or the Bachelorette, sorry. and, you know, so some people are probably a little bit upset.
Starting point is 00:17:33 I don't know. I think the numbers showed that Harrison was a good fit for them, and they loved him. He was around forever. So I know that they, this was The Bachelorette. It says it remains unclear if he's going to return to The Bachelor. Uh-huh. Sure. No problem.
Starting point is 00:17:52 So he's hosted The Bachelor, The Bachelorette, and The Bachelor in Paradise. And I apologize. I apologize. for not knowing my bachelor, Bachelorette and Bachelor in Paradise shows because this is actually a show that I have not paid attention to. I know about the shows,
Starting point is 00:18:11 and I've seen, you know, different episodes, but I do not follow them. And so, you know, but he's been on since 2002. I mean, that's incredible since 2002. And now, I mean, he's the guy, right? He was the Bachelor, the Bachelorette, and the Bachelor in Paradise guy.
Starting point is 00:18:29 And now they're just kicking him to the curb. It's unclear if he's going to return. Yeah, he's out. Have a nice day. Take care of yourself. Another person that's tough to get behind is this Ellie Kemper deal. I know she's a good actress and her shows. I like her.
Starting point is 00:18:47 But you know what? And I know it's a stupid, a god-awful stupid thing that she's in trouble for. That she's, you know, the KKK princess. And it's all apart because she did. She went to a debutante ball at this place, you know, 20 years ago when she was a teenager. And the place was, you know, a bad place anyway. But it wasn't a bad place then. It was a bad place when it was founded back in 1878 by an ex-Confederate.
Starting point is 00:19:22 It isn't even linked to the clan. I guess there was a hooded costume worn at the first ball that looked like the outfit that the clan adopted 20 years later. So, you know, I want to be on her side and say your people are just stupid. And, you know, she wasn't the beauty queen of a racist ball. And it's just dumb. But you know what? It's Hollywood.
Starting point is 00:19:50 And now they're going to start eating their own good. Good. because the whole thing is dumb. And maybe we reach a point, maybe we reach a point where even in Hollywood, they're like, hey, maybe why we've gone too far. This is
Starting point is 00:20:07 silly. I bet she apologizes, though. She hasn't yet. And maybe she doesn't. Maybe this is the tipping point. Maybe this is the point of saying, hey, hey, no, no, no, no more. Okay, I hope so. But we shall see. Disappointing news
Starting point is 00:20:22 also, for those of you that have been waiting for the Chromatica Ball from Lady Gaga. I know. She postponed it again. Very sad. It's not going to happen until next year, 2022. I know. Plenty places she wrote in a message saying that while some parts of the world are moving quickly to open up, others are not ready yet. So until we can confirm all global dates, we have to postpone the Chromatica ball shows to the summer of 2022. Okay, Gaga. No problem. I mean, that's actually, I guess that's kind of cool. Because if she has to, starts the tour and then has to cancel a bunch,
Starting point is 00:21:02 then you're, you know, then you're done. So she, let's see, it's a, uh, the initial tour dates announced in 2020, March 5th. Wow. Talk about a kick in the rear. Uh, month long, six city stadium, John, from July 25th through August 27th, beginning in Paris, France. then London, then Boston, then Toronto, then Chicago, then New Jersey at MetLife Stadium, and then that we're going to be there for several dates.
Starting point is 00:21:40 Wow. I mean, that's a, she's doing nothing in the middle of the country or the West Coast or down south. That's a little disappointing. What's going on, Gaga? I mean, what are you got against the rest of the U.S. You know, Australia dates, none of that. I don't know. You got your money for your little house of Gucci movie you were starring in.
Starting point is 00:22:01 And now you're just, you know, doing a whole little month-long tour. Sure, you're in Paris and, you know, London. And, you know, then we go to Boston and Toronto and Chicago and New Jersey. And then we wrap it up. That's it. Okay, whatever. Lazy. Did you see where, you?
Starting point is 00:22:24 TikTok has issued a cease and desist on their YouTubers versus TikTokers boxing event. It's been pretty huge. It's been promoted a lot by these dangleberries on YouTube and TikTok. And it's a stupid thing. I know. I got it. But if you're big into it, you're big into it. I think you can quote me on that.
Starting point is 00:22:48 If you're big into it, you're big into it. But they apparently are unhappy with that. the promotion. I don't know what they're unhappy with. They want to cancel the event altogether. How about no? They're supposed to take place on June 12th in Miami. These guys, it's a lot of money. It's a pay-per-view.
Starting point is 00:23:13 It's both platforms. These guys are going to be boxing each other. There's a couple of fights. I think there's multiple fights going on between TikTokers and YouTubers. And it's such a huge event. It's the battle of the platforms. And it's up on, it's going to be a huge event. I don't know why they want the cease and desist, other than they're not getting paid for the actual event.
Starting point is 00:23:40 That's very possible that they don't want the LiveX Live as, you know, working with a legal team on the matter. And that's who's going to be, you know, streaming the event. So we'll see. I don't know. It seems weird that TikTok would try a cease and desist to the event. But maybe they're just pissed. They're not making any money.
Starting point is 00:24:02 But they are making all kinds of money from, you know, the advertising of the event. So I really don't, I'm not quite sure I understand their thinking on that. It's really weird. And we got the Mayweather Floyd fight this weekend, baby. I'm looking forward to that. I am looking forward to that. I mean, that's a smart move on these guys. Mayweather and Jake Paul is just breaking into cash for this.
Starting point is 00:24:32 Such a good move on both of them. But Mayweather, I mean, he hasn't fought since he fought Connor McGregor like four years ago, which he won, by the way. That was a good fight. I enjoyed seeing that fight. And Jake Paul, he hasn't even won a fight. I mean, he lost to KSI in what they called the split decision, which he really should have won that fight,
Starting point is 00:24:55 but KSI did not win that fight. I don't even like Jake Paul. I'm not a big KSI fan either, but, you know, he should not, that should not have been a split decision. That was a bad call. However, let me say this.
Starting point is 00:25:08 I hope that Mayweather wins this fight. I want Mayweather to win this fight, but if Jake Paul, Jake Paul to win this fight is going to have to knock him out. You're going to have to put Mayweather on the bat. It's just going to have to. Otherwise, nobody will believe that he won the fight. Now, they just announced the rules, per the Florida Commission.
Starting point is 00:25:30 The Florida State Boxing Commission released the rules on the fight. No judges. No official winner read. Knockouts legal. K.O. up to the ref's discretion. No headgear, 12-ounce gloves, eight three-minute rounds. So that is really, really kind of. kind of weird.
Starting point is 00:25:54 I know. And there's going to be an undercard as well. Chad Johnson is doing a bare-knuckle fight with Brian Maxwell in a four-round exhibition. And I think there was another fight that got canceled in that undercard as well. But with no judges and no official winner-red,
Starting point is 00:26:16 I mean, that's a little disconcerning. So the only way that you come out winning this fight. They both will have bragging rights if they're left standing at the end of eight rounds. And Mayweather could last eight rounds. Right. I mean, Jake Paul is going to have to... He's going to have to do some work to knock out Floyd.
Starting point is 00:26:41 He could. He's a lot bigger than him. He's a lot younger. But he's not... He's not Floyd. I'm sorry. Floyd is 50 and 0. 27 knockouts.
Starting point is 00:26:52 He's the man. And so there's no way. No way. He gets knocked out by Floyd. I don't know that I want to make that a prediction or not because a little frightening. Because Floyd blinks his eyes wrong and Jake gets one punch in, man. He could dig Mayweather to the mat. That would not be good.
Starting point is 00:27:20 It would be good for Jake. man it would be good for Jake they've made Paul brothers man I hate him so much because they're so smart and they've made such a they've made such great moves
Starting point is 00:27:32 to just rake in cash from the internet and why not bless their hearts just I can't decide bless their hearts or I hate them which is it
Starting point is 00:27:44 you wear Krispy Cream filed to go public yesterday under the ticker symbol D-N-U-T D-N-U-T D-N-U-T D-N-A-
Starting point is 00:28:05 I guess the one story I read about them going public talked about how their sales grew
Starting point is 00:28:16 17% in the last fiscal year and net revenue jump 23% in 2021 and expanded its footprint
Starting point is 00:28:24 from 6,040 Krispy-C-Cream selling locations to 8,200 275 crispy cream selling locations last year. It owns Insomnia cookies. I remember we talked about that when they bought insomnia cookies.
Starting point is 00:28:42 64% of all Krispy Cream donuts sold are the glazed kind. And so, you know, one of the things that I liked about the story, and also this is their comeback because remember, the chain is, Krispy Cream is 83 years old now. and it first went public back in 2000. I remember that because they were bringing in Krispy Kreme donuts left and right when we were in Tampa. Anyway, of course we were paying for them. It filed for bankruptcy in 2005 and then, you know, now we're back.
Starting point is 00:29:17 Now we're back, baby. Krispy Kreme is back and this time they're pissed. But in that story, though, you know, their symbol is going to be D-N-U-T. but it could have been creepy k r p y or it could have been glazed g lz d i know i know those are tough choices but they they didn't go with gzed or grippa y they went with denat so you know you could invest and crispy cream. Speaking of health, Nestle,
Starting point is 00:30:00 Nestle, the world's biggest food company by sales, decided that, you know what, wow, we're not healthy.
Starting point is 00:30:10 We're not healthy. So, in an internal presentation, they found that 63% of Nestle products don't meet a recognized definition of health.
Starting point is 00:30:24 You think so? So? Now, look, Nestle is, you know, huge, right? I mean, so they didn't even count baby formula, coffee, pet food, medical nutrition, which all of those account for about half of their sales. So instead of 63%, if you count all of those, you get it down to about 28% of their products. Don't meet recognized definition of health.
Starting point is 00:30:57 Okay, 70% of the food items, 96% of beverages, and 99% of candy ice cream products didn't crack this health rating system in Australia that gives you the Australian health rating system is 3.5 to 5 stars is good for, you know, recognized definition of health. And so 70% of food items, 96% of beverages, and 99% of candy ice cream products didn't crack the 3.5. Really? You think? One pepperoni pizza hot pocket contains almost 30% of the recommended daily sodium intake. And so? So anyway, they are updating nutrition standards and its health strategy. They said they're going to make improvement. and we've made improvements in recent years,
Starting point is 00:31:58 and we're going to continue to move forward on reducing sugars and sodiums and products by about 15%. Oh, okay, no problem. You're still going to make it taste good, though, right? And what about the candy bars and stuff? Well, CEO Mark Schneider actually commented on that last year. He said, baby Ruth's aren't going anywhere. Confectionary and chocolate address a deep human need and are going to be here to stay.
Starting point is 00:32:34 Thank you. Thank you CEO, Mark Schneider. At least he gets it. So he's trying to, he's walking that line. He's walking that line of, yeah, man, we're going to try. We're going to try to get through. We're going to try to meet the recognized definition of health. And look, we sell baby formula and coffee and pet food and medical nutrition.
Starting point is 00:32:56 and those are all good. So back off me, okay? You know what? You know what? We'll make a hot pocket with a little less sodium. All right? But that's about it. We're not going to,
Starting point is 00:33:10 we're not messing with the baby Ruth. I like this guy. Oh, and did you see where they finally came up with a name? Now, if it goes through, the merger between Discovery and Warner Media, you know, that's like a 43-bilt. million dollar merger that we talked about it, that they're hoping to, you know, come together and be the next big player in the streaming wars. Well, they now have a name.
Starting point is 00:33:38 The Discovery CEO, David Zazlov, is going to lead the new combined venture, if cleared by regulators, and I'm sure that it will. He announced the name to Warner Media employees Tuesday in his press release. We love the new company's name because it represents the combination of Warner Brothers, BROS, period, fabled 100-year legacy of created authentic storytelling and taking bold risks to bring the most amazing stories to life with Discovery's global brand that has always stood brightly for integrity, innovation, and inspiration. He told employees that I'm here in a studio lot in Burbank, California. Now, the company's tagline is going to be the stuff that dreams are made of.
Starting point is 00:34:37 Now, I don't know what they put in front of people to come up with a name, but I mean, they really, they really thought this one out a lot. Okay. They're going to be called Warner Bros. Discovery. Huh? multi-billion dollar corporation they have announced that you know you heard him he's i mean it represents the combination of Warner brothers and Discovery's global brand so i mean what's a better name
Starting point is 00:35:11 than Warner Bros Discovery the stuff that dreams are made of Who knows if they're going to allow it, but I'm sure that they will. I mean, there's, what do they? No, you guys can't come together. It's not going to happen. We're the regulators. We get to say so. No way.
Starting point is 00:35:39 It happens. So Warner Bros. Discovery. The stuff that dreams are made of are, you know, huge. Now, they're still saying that there's mergers left to do. I mean, they all want to compete against. Disney, Netflix, and Amazon. I mean, those three are monsters. So, and then when you have Warner Bros. Discovery.
Starting point is 00:36:04 It's just, okay. But you have Viacom, CBS, and NBC Universal. I mean, they're saying that maybe NBC Universal merges with Lionsgate. Wow. And then what they're saying is, if Warner Bros. Discovery gets okayed and comes together, then Viacom, CBS, would actually go into trying to get with NBC or other big companies. So they all come together because they all want that piece, man.
Starting point is 00:36:42 They want that huge streaming piece. They're talking about maybe a Star's peacock combination, either together as one service or separately as a, as a bundled offering. Okay. All right. You got Stars is on track to have 60 million global subscribers by 2025. Okay.
Starting point is 00:37:06 Stars is available in 58 different countries. Wow. That's pretty huge. They're on track to get 60 million. They don't have 60 million yet. So we shall see about that. I don't know about that. Now, these big companies, man, are, they just want to get bigger.
Starting point is 00:37:30 They just want to get bigger. And yes, you can quote me on that. I mean, I guess, you know, the industry is back. They still, I mean, there's plenty of streaming companies out there left alone, AMC. You know, they're out there. Are they going to merge with somebody? I don't know. there's plenty of ESPN but that's under Disney right yeah so it's not going to work with that
Starting point is 00:37:59 um i'm just trying to think off the top of my head because AMC has already they just bought another company to you know say that we're back we're strong they had a big stock push they had one company this murdick capital bought like 8.5 million shares and then sold them Yeah, no, we don't really think that's, uh, that's good. We made about 40 million, but we just don't think that it's a good deal. Really? Yeah, it's overvalued. It wasn't overvalued when you made about 40 million on the deal.
Starting point is 00:38:43 You bought it for about 27 bucks and you sold it for 33 and a half. So that's not bad. That's not bad. Bad. But AMC. CEO, I mean, that's good for them. They are, they just bought archlight cinemas and Pacific theaters. That was like for 230 million. So they think it's back. I mean, their AMC, their CEO, AMC, their AMC, CEO.

Boy, if there was ever new content coming out for My SonHuntermovie.com, this is it. This laptop, Hunter's laptop,
Starting point is 00:41:25 is a never-ending plethora of information. You know, the laptop that could be his, maybe. So you know the stripper, the stripper baby mama that has the kid that we don't even recognize. And we didn't know the name. We do now, thanks to these emails. And we know she was on the payroll. He was paying her all through the pregnancy. Incredible.
Starting point is 00:41:56 Okay. So back in December, he reached out. to his assistant, Katie Dodge, asking for information about his firm, Rosemont Seneca. All right. And he says, just for clarification, who is payroll paid to now and for past nine months? So when you took what's her name off and redirected her income, did it also end my insurance? Past nine months has been you, me, London, Haley, Liz, and Aaron. but currently only you and me.
Starting point is 00:42:38 Dodge later reassured Hunter that no, London's removal doesn't jeopardize insurance. Now, remember, she went after him with a paternity suit, which they settled, and he agreed to pay her a monthly sum and health insurance premiums. Just amazing. They don't even recognize this woman. They don't even recognize this woman.
Starting point is 00:43:01 Now, they claim this is her, they have her name now because of these emails and the kid's name okay so the woman's name the stripper is london roberts gave birth to their daughter navy joan roberts in august of 2018 wow that kid's almost three years old incredible she messaged hunter on july 24th of 2018 saying uh you know their their child's due date was September 8th. All good. Amoeba, D-D. All good.
Starting point is 00:43:44 Hunter did not respond. Did not respond. She reached out a few times after that, and he did not respond. Need to talk to you. If you feel the need to reach out, my line is always open, Hope all as well.
Starting point is 00:43:57 Hunter did not respond. Amazing. According to this, the computer showed screenshots appeared four times. So we don't know if she sent the message four times or if he just had screenshots of the message four times on his computer. But he was paying, she was on the payroll and paying for her insurance until after she had the baby. And then he cut her off. What a nice guy. What a nice guy.
Starting point is 00:44:27 Now, he claimed in the autobiography that I had no recollection. I challenged the paternity because I had no recollection of any sexual encounter with Roberts. Really? That's incredible because you were, you know, paying for her and the insurance from your company. So you must have had some recollection. Is that not true? Mr. Biden? So according to him in 2017, in his book, he says that his first,
Starting point is 00:45:02 wife Kathleen after they divorced he went on rampages during which he and the women he met would satisfy our immediate needs and little else during this period that's when he had the affair with sister-in-law he and he writes i'm not proud of it i was a mess but a mess i've taken responsibility for have you have you now hunter and haley broke off that relationship and now he's married to melissa Cohen, they have a son, and guess what they named the son? I know you probably already know it, but they named the son, Bo. And that's special. And he has his daughter with Roberts, the stripper, and he has three daughters from his first marriage.
Starting point is 00:45:51 Those three daughters are Biden's grandkids. He loves them, and I bet you Bo is now his favorite. It's the new Bo book is Bo. I'm telling you, the title of his book should have been I'm not Bo. but I digress. So, I mean, it gets better and better. Just better and better. This guy is a, well, yes, he's a dirtbag.
Starting point is 00:46:11 Yeah, he's a dirt bag. We'll just stick with that. He's a dirtbag. I mean, his laptop keeps giving information daily as they go through it. We know now that the, you know, DOJ is probing the lobbying firm tied to Biden's son, tied to Hunter. the laptop keeps keeps giving us information
Starting point is 00:46:35 and we're supposed to pretend like that information doesn't exist okay sure no problem we'll just pretend the information doesn't exist right hunter I know you're a mess and you've taken
Starting point is 00:46:51 responsibility for it have you have you I mean you were forced into responsibility at least paying after the baby died, right? But she was on the pay roll. What a douche.
Starting point is 00:47:03 So he pays for her, pays her and pays for insurance to have the baby. And as soon as she has the kid, cut off. You're gone. Have a nice day. We're not to, that had to be dad saying,
Starting point is 00:47:14 cut her off. Yeah, because they were coming up with the election. So he had to have no ties to her. I, except for that whole child support and health insurance premiums, you know, during the paternity suit. That's what they settled because of the election.
Starting point is 00:47:28 Joe was like, get this thing off. the table. I don't want to hear about it anymore. Okay. No problem. I don't even want to know that my grandchild born out of wedlock to your stripper Navy. What's the kids name again? Navy something, right? Navy Joan Roberts. Navy Joan Roberts. Almost three years of age now. I mean, the laptop keeps giving and giving and giving. I mean, if it's is actually his laptop. I mean, let's not forget that he
Starting point is 00:48:03 did say there was, you know, certainly a possibility that it was my laptop. But look, yeah, there could be a laptop out there that was stolen from me. Sure. It could be that I was hacked. It could be that it was Russian intelligence. It could be that it was stolen from me.
Starting point is 00:48:26 Okay, Hunter. All right. Enough. I mean, wow. I can't wait for Phelan McLare and My Son Hunter to be made. Mysonhuntermovie.com. It's not even a paid commercial for it this time. Just Mysonhuntermovie.com.
