I'd like to say happy Monday, but I just sat down to sad news. Came here, excited, bring you chewing the fat, the Monday edition, welcome you to it. Tell you to, you know, be sure to follow me on Twitter at Jeff EMRA, Instagram and Facebook, Jeff Fisher Radio. It was all happy. And then I sit down and I find that the. Eat Smart Salad Shakeups, which I am, you can't pry and eat smart salad shakeup out of my hands, is recalled. The 5.5 ounce cups of salad and dressing went to Florida, California, Texas, Arizona, Colorado, Iowa, Kansas, Oklahoma, Oregon, Utah, Washington, and the Canadian provinces of Ontario, Quebec, Alberta, Saskatchewan, British Columbia.

There's a lot number. I'll take, here you go, write this down. 1-1-2-331. And the best by date of December 14th. I mean, oh, see, and the varieties in the recall are the tropical lime. I love that. The Asian sesame. The avocado ranch.

The raspberry. Is it a kai or? It's the akai berry, right? or the asci berry, the Aki-Berry? I still don't know that. What is that? Is it the Akeye-Berry or the... It's the A-Kai-Berry, right?

That's what I said to begin with. Where you been? What are you doing in there? Sweet kale, which is great. I mean, this is sad, sad news for today. This is why there's... I mean, they're not even a sponsor of this show. It's Field of Greens, right?

They drop it in a shake. You don't need to worry about it, and you're not having any recalls. from that, my friends. Put that in a shake. You've eaten your salad. You don't have to carry around your salad shake-up. You don't have to worry about recalls. I mean, good luck.

For those of you, if you're like me and you love to carry around your salad shake-ups for snacks, it's a sad day. Sad, sad day. Unless, of course, I mean, we talked about a little bit working with Pat Gray on Pat Unleashed all week. More on trivia was great. We are now 13 and 2 on the season. One of the better seasons that we've had in a long, long time.

According to the Twitter Dome, we are seven win in a row. Pretty strong record heading into the end of the season and then on into the playoffs. So we're pretty excited over more. on trivia. And of course, you can listen to that during Pat Unleashed Fridays, the 8 a.m. Eastern hour, we play more on trivia. You know, I was thinking about that. It seems sometimes that in the last few years we played more on trivia, some of the contestants that we call at convenience stores seem smarter than they have in previous years. And I think that either, I don't, want to say that that means well

for the American educational system. I think that means well that we have truly people who are, in quotation marks, educated, filling the shelves at these convenience stores instead of working someplace else.

If you could be a manager at, say, Circle K, why not? Why not? That's a pretty good gig. you run a store Make sure the gas pumps are working Make sure bud All the beer lines are full

Make sure Coke delivers you the on-sale product Cigarettes are stocked and ready to go And you're selling lottery tickets You know which ones are the busiest though Are the ones that around the corner Have the little sandwich lunch shops Crank out Crank out I was thinking about working for one of those ones

and I did not like it. I worked there for a couple days. I did not like it. It gets too busy. I like to be able to sit back and go ahead, pump two. Wait, and I'm just telling a story here. That was a long time ago. I mean, at that time, I liked to just sit back and how much you need on two?

Okay, go ahead, get out of here. You need a pack of smokes too? Yeah, get out of here. But then the lunchtime. and everybody's buying sandwiches and all lined up and they got all kinds of stuff and you gotta crank out and they want this and they want that and they got to do this.

No, that's too bad. That's too much work. You know, I told my wife this weekend to, speaking of jobs that I've had in the past, and she never knew this, which I was surprised because I'm pretty sure I've talked about this other year before that I, at one point in my life,

and she called it selling vacuum cleaners. I called it selling compact cleaning systems. And that was an interesting, interesting time in my life. I needed a gig. And the compact cleaning system is a tremendous device. And it's a, I mean, it cleans great. And really, when you're out to sell someone a compact cleaning system, that needs it because what do you have really what do you have in a vacuum what's in a vacuum

Chris let me ask you a question I come to your home I got the compact cleaning system you've got that old vacuum's clean it looks stuff looks clean but once I once I put the little clean cloth over the over the bag of the compact cleaning system and sweep over what you've just swept over and I still pick up dirt you are purchasing a product because you want to sit in clean. Clearly, people want their house to be clean, and they realize after I sweep up dirt what they've just swept,

oh my gosh, my vacuum cleaner does not work. I need the compact cleaning system. And of course you do, because you've been cleaning with a vacuum. And what do you have in a vacuum? Chris, what do you have in a vacuum? What comes in a vacuum? You got the bag?

No, a vacuum, not a vacuum cleaner, but what's in a vacuum? It's just a vacuum, there's nothing, right? There's nothing there, yeah. Right, and that's exactly what you're picking up with your vacuum cleaner. Nothing. Okay, but with the compact cleaning system, you're cleaning.

I said that, I saw, was that you line? Yeah, it was one of them. Did that get you a high percentage? Oh, man, those sales. We had to do all these stupid cold calls where people they were cold calls. Oh, those are fun. I did that when I sold carpeting to. Carpeting was a suck job.

Carpeting for houses? Cold calls on carpeting, yeah. Come in and you'd have a, you need new carpeting, so we'd come and give you a free estimates and you get a little prize. What was the price? I don't know, some piece of jewelry or whatever a watch. You get to choose out of the three. You said of a...

Whatever it was. You said of knives. Right. Wives and jewelry a watch or something rings, watch. Wallet. That's fascinating to sell carpeting because you got them on the line and you've measured the room. You know, you measure it up and you figure, okay, well, I'll get you into this room

of, you know, we'll get you into this room for, say, 500 bucks. Wait, you measured through the phone? No, no, no, no, no, no, no. I'm just, I'm talking to you. We're at the house. We're talking to you. I measure the house. And I say, you know, you guys want some new carpeting in here.

We could do this. And it's all done, said and done. We've got you hooked up with the half-inch padding. It's going to be nice and soft. We've got the carpeting. We'll get you in here. It's a cut. We all work it out for $500.

Okay. And then you see the, ooh, that's pretty steep. So, well, let me call my boss. It's not up to me. Is that it to me? Let me call my boss. Do you borrow their phone? See if we could do something.

Yeah. Nice. And you call and then Millie picks up on the other end and she pretends to be your boss. Uh-huh. Uh-huh. Let me see what I call. Okay. All right.

So now just remember this if this happens to you, okay? They're not talking to their boss. Are you sure because they're telling me they're talking to the supervisor. I know what they're telling you. Huh. Now, maybe the supervisor, maybe the supervisor is on the phone because he's the only one in the office at the time. you never know. All right,

but he's not making the decision. And so, well, let me, okay, yeah, I'm here with the cruises. And,

you know, they're really nice. And they're kind of struggling, but they really want some new carpeting in for the holidays. I'd like to help them out. You know, I've got,

I've got it measured out for like $500. Do you think maybe we could, I don't know, do something for them to help it out a little bit cheaper. We're not doing a show. Don't worry about it. Just come on in.

Just don't worry about it. Come on. talk middle of the shut's fine mic's on the middle of the show is fine don't worry about it so you know what it's just a podcast for the network it's not glan don't worry about it

I can't hear you now oh there you go oh get your information and leave can I get back to the show now I mean we just walk in she just walks in like oh it's okay

I'll just, I'll just walk in. And it's in the middle. It doesn't matter that the mic lights are on and people are working. Oh, well. You know what the problem is? Is there used to being able to walk into that room? And there's no light or anything letting them know that someone is actually recording in that room. That needs to be fixed.

We should actually talk to the engineering department about that and have someone handle that in the next five years. We'll get right on that. Maybe what's... When you see the flashed... light on. We're talking in here. All right, so I'm sorry. I apologize for going off on our people like that. I just came in and started talking to Chris. I don't worry about it. It's okay. But a little behind the scenes.

As a matter of fact, Chris, don't even put that in. I don't even want that in. Okay. Okay, so, yeah, I've got Chris on the phone. I've got the cruises here. They're really nice people. And, you know, I'd like to do something for them, but the, you know, $500 is a little steep for what they want. Let me ask you something, Chris. Mr. Cruz, if we could come and put it in on our time

and not schedule it when you really wanted it, would that be, would that be okay? Yeah. You know, so I mean, instead of schedule on your time, if we could do it when we have a free minute on our on our installers. Would that be okay? I think so. Yeah, that would be okay with them.

So we get that, I can probably say like, what do you think, 450? I guess, yeah. 450, we're good. That's your time? $450? No, no, no, $450? Oh, $450.

From the $500. I can knock 50 off for that. And you do it on your time? Okay with that? We'll let you know. We'll let you know. It's close to the time. So are we good with $450?

I think so. Thank you, boss. I really appreciate all the help you can do click. Sale. Or you, hey, I got the cruises here. They're really nice, but, you know, they're a little steep. It's, you know, what's that?

What's that? I'll see I'll see Chris let me ask you something if like we have you scheduled out here for the half inch padding so if I

I don't know if I get like the quarter inch instead of the half inch padding I'd be able to knock off you know we get you we get just some money off for that would that be all right? Yeah okay

figure that out let me see yeah he said it'd be okay with that I mean it's all just just when you got a big win That's so good. That is so good. And it's, I, I did not like doing that. I don't know why.

I mean, I like meeting the people. I mean, I like going to their homes and meeting the people and talking to them. It's just the whole sales thing. That's my problem with sales. And the biggest problem I have with sales is the number one thing you have to do, and that's close. If you're a salesperson, you have to close. So does that mean that you don't know how to close or you don't like to close?

I don't like to close. I love to close. Like, I could be the closer. I don't like the whole, like, so like, in our case, it would be good because you can do the deal and I just close for you. I'm happy with that. Because I love to close. I'm all good with that. Let me wheel and deal and then just be done.

Yes. Yes. It's just be done. Yes. Because that's what you've got to do with, with multi-level marketing? Yes, closing. Yes. Hit and move.

Hit and move. There's no, you can, you can yada, yada, yada. But you can only yada yada for so long. And then you got to close. Yes. Because if you don't close, you just wasted that one hour. We wasted both our times. Yes, absolutely.

And then when you're done, we got to move on. If you made the decision not to be a part of the multi-level marketing program, that's fine. Yes. But I'm not talking to you anymore. Yes. Because I got to go. Yes. I got to keep going.

I got to get another one. I got to keep going. Yes. And that's my cousin made a fortune, fortune doing multi-level marketing. And I went through the ropes with him. I learned how to make down lines and how to sort it out, how he showed me how he did it wrong. And then he came back and tried to fix what he did wrong. So you have a deeper, a deeper line.

Yeah, because that's the thing that the key is to get deep, but you got in wide. Right. Yes. But if you go too deep, not enough wide, you messed up. And if you start too wide, then you can't go to. You never get deep enough. Oh, yes. I know.

Trust me. I know. but my problem is is the closing I just like you're not going to get it oh come on all right let's have a cup of coffee my cousin's like you're not going to get it we're out next good you know nice talking to you're gone second second second gone and uh it's fascinating fascinating I'm fascinated I forgot about I was cleaning the compact cleaning systems

in the carpets though those were tough days tough days It always turns out well when companies don't disclose what's in their product. Or they try to, they have stuff in their product that, questionable, we just won't tell anybody. So Johnson and Johnson with their, with their talc powder, I mean, they knew for decades that the baby powder contained asbestos. I don't know if the asbestos did any damage and I haven't seen any of the court cases

and there's thousands of court cases but it just sounds bad and we know that it you know asbestos and cancer and all the problems that that did I read I was sidetracked to another job I had when I was when I first moved to Florida I was working demolition

really because I had to they made us wear masks and suits because we were we were destroying this we were tearing apart this old building and it was supposed to be full of asbestos. So we had to wear suits. I'm trying to get all this in a timeline. Okay.

This is before or after the carpet cleaning? Post. Post. Okay. It's post. And is this before or after the car salesman? Well, I never really sold cars. I worked at the used car a lot, though.

Okay, so use car less salesman. I used to clean car. Oh, you did watch the car cleaner. Okay. You know, that was a friend of my mother's. This is serious business. He had a car lot out there and they were really struggling. And then he went to van conversions.

Fortune. Fortune. All he did. Got rid of selling used cars and buying. But then he just converted vans, you know, fixed up the inside of van. To what? To couches and beds and sofas and TVs. That's pretty cool.

And painting them all. Oh, wow. Just a fortune. That is pretty cool. I wasn't working there then. No, he was really nice to me. That guy. I used to, I traveled around with this guy.

this old man from, he was an old Greek when I was working there. That was when I was in high school. It was a summer job. And he took me around to all the places, all the Greek mafia restaurants. And we just sat there and he wheeled and dealed to use cars for the car lot with all the with all who I like to say the Greek mafia.

We just go and he goes, just sit down and shut up. Because you travel with me today. Just sit down and shut up. See if you learned something. It was fantastic. But, God, that was a one 100 years ago. So that's post. Anyway, the demolition job at the VA

was post cars and compact cleaning systems and carpeting. And, you know, they made us put masks on and suits. We had to go in and haul out all this stuff. And I'm like, I'd rather just breathe this stuff as too hot. I don't care about the asbestos.

Of course you would say that. Load the stuff up on the truck. What do I got to wear this crap full? Anyway, this report by Reuters, based on documents and depositions and trial testimony, said that it showed from 1971 to the early 2000s, Johnson & Johnson executives, mind managers, doctors and lawyers were aware the company's raw talc and finished powders sometimes tested positive for small amounts of asbestos. Those involved discussed the problem but did not disclose it to regulators. Shh.

Just don't say anything. Wow. Now, the company has released a statement Friday saying the Reuters article was one-sided, false, and inflammatory. Right. Right. Okay, good luck. Because their stock took a big tumble. They lost a few million.

Don't worry about it. Be fine. Johnson and Johnson, their market, you know, they're probably a $800 billion company a year.

A little asbestos lawsuit. Get out of here. 50 million. Goodbye. What does Johnson and Johnson make? Seriously. Look, we got to look that up. I got a note before I tell you.

Thanks for listening to chewing the fat. Your listenership is very important to us. We'll get back to you momentarily. Please hold. Your listenership is very important to it. us. We're looking up a...

What are we looking up? Oh yeah, the market share of some company. Your listenership is very important to us. Please hold. Before we get back to the show, I want to thank Wikipedia. Okay, it says it's a little awkward, but let's get right to the point. They want to ask me for money. Yeah.

Dear Wikipedia, I just want the information. Okay, I'm in the middle. I've got audience holding. I'm in the middle of a show. and you won't let me read what I want to read because you want to hit me up for some money. Agonizing. I'm sorry you need. I'm sorry that you need the money.

Okay, I really am because you're a great website. Everybody uses you. But not in the middle of the show. All right. So Johnson & Johnson has got about a $341 billion company, almost $350 billion company. Amazing, right? I thought they were a little bit more, actually. And they're only, they're profiting like, what, 70, between 70 and 80 billion a year?

They're dying. They're dying. They're almost, I mean, they're down to nothing. So I think, I think they'll probably be fine. They'll probably be fine. Unbelievable. Speaking of a company that'll probably be fine, Amazon. Amazon taking a few hits.

We did the story this morning about the workers kind of upset and kind of revolting a little bit because the robots are outworking them and the company's making the warehouse too warm and they're charging them for time. You know, they get special, they have to take special time off to pray. People are saying they're making us work too hard. They're making us work too hard.

Well, now people are accusing Amazon very difficult. Now get this, if you buy something from Amazon and you expect it to be in their Amazon box. You expect the product to come in their Amazon box. When they drop it at your front door, when it drops on your roof from the drone, when it's thrown at your front door, when it's dropped in the backyard from the drone,

you expect it to be in the Amazon box. When you see the Amazon Mercedes-Benz van in your neighborhood, you expect that to be full of Amazon boxes. However, some of the bigger boxes that people buy, guitar, stuff like that, Amazon sends in the regular box. So they're mad at Amazon because

it's a gift, right? They bought it for whomever is in the house, and they expected it to come in an Amazon box and it comes in, hey, look, Mom got me a brand new guitar. So you have to remember to click on ship in Amazon packaging.

Remember to click on that when you order. Otherwise, it might show up. in the regular box. And that would be very, that's very disappointing in, uh, very disappointing in today's world. Very disappointing. So if you got instant pot. Seriously, if you ordered instant pots or a guitar, uh, you know, some toy, some big toy,

it'll, it comes, it doesn't come in the Amazon box. Get over it. Really? I mean, seriously, get over it. It's not Amazon's fault. I will say, this guy actually had it pretty smart, though. There's a big story about this parrot that uses Alexa to order watermelon and light bulbs while the owner is out. But the owner's got the settings set, so it doesn't even go.

The parrot just orders stuff, and Alexa says, okay, thank you. And on it goes. But he's got a set so the bird can play music. Alexa plays it music. Fascinating. These parrots are great birds. This is an African gray in this story. I was going to tell my parents' story.

I love to sing. Didn't like me. He liked me okay. Didn't like me too much. Loved my son. My son was, it was my first, my first mother-in-law's bird. And my first mother-in-law's bird. So when he stayed there, she would put his, she would put Elvis's little base.

be prison next to the bird prison and there'll be two prisons like prison cells backed up against each other and that bird my son could pick that bird up and throw it across the room step on it throw it against the window bang on it beat on it and that bird emmish it is it is it is it is and it's down upon the swanee river what yeah I know I know I've talked about the story before I know. I'm just, it was just a great parrot reminds me of Pete the parrot. Why do you have a problem with Pete the parrot? You certainly sounded like it. Oh, no, no, hold on. I don't have problems with Pete the parrot.

I have a problem with you going through stories and stories and stories. And the fat pal gets bigger for this Friday. We have an off weekend. I want to make sure that everybody gets what they need for the week. And I need you to stop saying so many stories. Or at least say the story or be like, hey, on this day, I say this story. I can listen to this. I don't remember what on this date.

I mean, we can put people on hold and find out, I guess. See, but no, then they're never coming into their time again. I don't want to put people on hold again. So. You ought to tell people not to come in all the time and cut you off and just interrupt the show. We save a little time that way. How about that? Oh, look, at least the latest person that came in, I didn't say anything.

I just let it happen. They just waltz in. Like, it's, you know, it's, oh. Oh, it's just the fat man doing this podcast. It doesn't count. All right, so we might as well go to the break room and get a drink and talk about a few things. You know, as we're in the break room. I'm really thirsty, too, by the way.

Oh, my gosh. And I'd like to tell you how good a Coke Zero is, but I can't because I've told you that before. So you can go back to some other shows and listen. You go back to insert date here. I don't think that's a name of a show, but just know that it's a name of a show, but just know that it's the date of some date since this podcast has started. We've done what, 10, 20 shows, something like that, 30, 60, something like that. One of those shows, go back and listen because one of those shows, I've said that before.

In fact, the way Chris looks, I've probably done it more than once. So as long as we're here, let's talk about Sears. Now, we've talked about Sears bankruptcy and how they're, you know, they've got bankrupt. They're looking like they're going to close down, and they're trying to stay open. And now this is what people's, and I'm kind of ticked at it myself. I want to say it's okay. I want to say, well, that's part of the deal. That's their contractual arrangement.

That's what's happening. But on the other hand, I want to say no. No, you don't get to do that. Okay, so a U.S. bankruptcy court approved Sears request to pay $25.3 million in bonuses to the company's top executives and some of the high. ranking employees. No. I know that just doesn't sound good. The company behind Sears Hoffman Estates based Sears Holding Corporation

argued it needed to give employees such a financial incentive to encourage them to remain with the company as it works to rebuild. The company has lost $1.9 billion. dollars perhaps and this is just me perhaps spending another 25.3 million on bonuses is the problem just a thought i don't know i could be wrong but no i get what you're saying and it's your company and you should be able to do what you want i know i understand i just it doesn't look good and you should know better. You just should know better. Tumblr. We talked about Tumblr's ban on porn. I'm sorry, adult content.

The social media platform has been more lax on content moderation than its peers. This is the story. The social media platform has been more lax on content moderation than its peers. Yeah, go ahead and do what you want. And that's today, by the way. It goes into it. I wonder why I'm talking about it. I know. I want you to tag me in because you know this is, this is, this will hurt some business owners that I know.

Are you going to tag me in? I mean, when it's a tag team and you get tagged in, you have to, I tagged you in. Is that what you wanted? Apparently not. Yeah. You know, you can't do that.

What do you mean? I tagged you in. That's what you asked for. Yeah, but the way you did it, It's like funny. And you know I laugh at anything that you do. Don't. Don't.

Anyways, two days a day. That's why I was... Did you see... Did you see... Because I've been following this story for a long time now. They're all going to Riddit. So Riddits is loving this right now. Okay.

And they're going to Meewee. Yeah, a lot of people are going to Mee. I don't know what Meewee is, but I know it's like... It's a social media platform. And you can comment and they have a... they have blocks of people that talk to each other, you know, like that, yeah. So, like, right now, Tumblr is screwing things out. Well, they should know better.

I know they're trying to be, I know that in their eyes, they're trying to do the right thing. And they, you know, do the right thing is not letting adult content thrive. If that's what's making your money. And you don't like it and sell the company. Yeah. Let the company thrive. The people are using it. I mean, give the people what they want.

I saw a couple of people. I mean, it's your company. You can do what you want. I saw another person that's trying to do a cumbler, cumpler. Stop it. Yes. As funny as that is, it's not going to work. Let's move on.

We had Tumblr. We had Tumblr, and now they're trying to latch onto that. I mean, that's why, I mean, I guess Miwi might do it. I like the sound of Miwi porn. I don't think Miwi's going for that. Mewi adult content. I'm sorry. that I didn't mean to throw the whole thing off.

Everybody wants to be so self-righteous on these social media platforms, man. It drives me insane. I get it. You don't like porn? Don't look at it. It's your choice. Are we still in the break room? Yeah, we are.

Okay, so Russia's rap scene is at risk of a Kremlin takeover. Now, tell me again how bad. America is. Okay? Tell me again. Let me hear you. Let me hear you yell it. Tell me again how bad America is and how, what a horrible country it is.

Russia's rap scene, as Vladimir Putin put it, if it's impossible to stop something, you've got to take charge of it. So the old Russian rap scene soon to be taken over five lad. Tell me again how bad Trump is. Tell me. Tell me again. Let me let me know how, what a dictator he. is shut up

ridiculous and we found a royal Egyptian priest that 4,400 year old tomb amazing now one of the things that was really kind of cool about it is that he had his mom

written all over the walls and all over the stuff mommy so it's this giant tomb of some high priest four thousand years ago so mama's boy little mommy boy

now I love my mom let's make no mistake nah I probably would have her name on the wall too yeah I probably would have um sad news and we have some sad music

maybe to play nah I don't want any sad music Coast Guard crews maybe we do need some no I don't just put on your sad face for just a moment okay while you're listening to chewing the fat

Coast Guard crews have suspended their search for a missing passenger, believed to have gone overboard from a carnival victory cruise ship. Okay, you ever sad face on? Yeah. And it's sad, right? This 26-year-old Thomas Mecca, Ellen Henney, is believed to have gone overboard about 5 a.m. on Friday, 35 miles south of Alamara, Florida. Look, they searched for 32 hours. Wow.

and they covered 2,086 square miles. I mean, if you've ever, you go out in the ocean, really. If you, you know, one person out in the ocean like that is very lucky to find them. And so this is, I mean, the U.S. Coast Guard, they use the air station, they use the dolphin helicopters, the ocean sentry airplanes, the Coast Cutter, Charles Sexton. they used another cutter Homeported in Miami

They turned the cruise ship around To look for this guy Who is this 26 year old? They're leaving people on land In Cuba Remember the couple last week The couple goes out I can't tell that story

That's right I can't tell those old stories anymore You have to go back and listen To the podcast that I told the story on Insert date here Because I have no idea It's just one of those shows back there behind me. So the couple is on the dock and there goes, hey, hello.

Yeah. Supposed to leave. It was supposed to leave at a certain time. They've got the paper in their pocket, but the ship says, oh, no, we changed that a week ago. We were going to leave away earlier than you guys have. Okay, gee, thanks. So they're stuck in Cuba got to pay for their way back.

The cruise ship was like, no. No, we don't pay for that. We tell you right up front. I'm not, I'm not, no. So we know that apparently there's footage of this guy falling off or, you know, falling off. But, you know, the family has got to be devastated, no question. But they turn the ship. If I'm on this cruise ship, no.

I'm on this to go to the Caymans. I'm sorry that John fell off. We've got the Coast Guard. We're spreading millions of dollars with the Coast Guard to find them. Keep going. Tell you what? Set some people up at the back with binoculars. And when we set some people up in the back.

What? With binoculars. So when we're pulling away, we can keep an eye out. You know, let them keep the lights on, on the ocean. But if we don't, no, that's too mean? Oh, I'm sorry, John. Oh, there's Thomas, I mean his name is. I don't know why I'm calling him John.

I didn't even care about his name. Thomas. Was that on the air? That's hilarious. John! Why are they calling for John? My name is Tom. Off they go.

John! Sorry, man. I'm sorry. I didn't mean to call you the wrong name. I apologize. Thomas, okay. I'm sorry. But that's the reason I don't go on.

ships. That's what I'm telling you. I seriously. We've had them break down. If you're stuck, and then you're just stuck. I know that it's a huge ship. We've gone over this. Insert date here. But this is, you just, I just, I'm sorry. I know, I know you're making these monstrous, beautiful ships. You're making floating towns, cities, small cities. There's small cities in America that aren't as cool as these ships. But I can't. I just can't. And I know, you know, I just can't. And then I heard Glenn talk about the stupid Titanic story today, so I had to read that. Did you read it? Yeah. It's good. Is it true or it's a conspiracy? What did he? Actually, I didn't hear his finished product. I just heard him tease it. And then I

remember what I remembered the story. So he was basically the, the racing, question of why was the steam, what's the boat going full steam ahead? Because there was a fire. Oh. Right? What did he say? I don't remember, but that's why I stopped. Well, why did you?

A story a year or so ago, a guy that was working on, I don't know if he ever finished the document, I just remember reading it a while ago and it talked about there being an actual fire, a coal fire on board. And it had started, you know, days before the Titanic left. And this, I don't know if this is Glenn story or not. But I'm just telling you the story that I remember where that there was an insert podcast here. Download Glenn Beck podcast, wherever podcasts are sold.

There's coal fire. And they didn't want to put it out because it would take too much time. The company that built the Titanic was already hurting, right? That's why they pushed the Titanic so fast as it was. And that's why they wanted to make news. They wanted to make it the fastest across the sea in New York because they were hurting for money. These other shipping companies were really putting a dent in their business.

business. And so if they would have stopped and they had an accident before the Titanic sailed, one of their other ships was in an accident. Okay. So that caused them to be if they would have, they couldn't, that would have been too much bad news. So if they would have stopped and the only way to put that coal fire out is to empty all the coal off, put it out and then and then reinsert the coal.

And they don't want to do that. So they're saying that they, you know, it was already burning and all. already hot and made the iron on the boat really, really hot. And the iron was subpar anyway because they made the ship a little bit different because to cut some costs. And so when it hit the iceberg, that iron was so hot that that's why it sank. It shouldn't have sunk. It shouldn't have sunk because the, and it,

may have sunk. There should have been time to rescue more passengers. Okay, there should have been time to rescue more passengers, but, because it wouldn't have sunk as fast, sank as fast, whatever we're supposed to say. Sunk, sank, sink, but because of the iron was so hot and the coal fire, and they were going so fast, they didn't want to slow down because they didn't have enough coal because of the coal fire to slow down and speed back up again and make the time to the U.S. So they just, the captain was like,

no problem, just keep firing it in. Let's go. We'll plowing through. And the, and then they hit the iceberg and that crushed the iron and made it,

was so hot and so big that it sank. Now, that having been said, it was still the iceberg that sank the Titanic. The iceberg put a hole in the side of the ship. Not according to Glenn Beck, okay?

I don't want to say, Glenn, he absolutely knows what he's talking about. 100% knows what he's talking about. All I'm saying is that the iceberg caused the Titanic to have a hole in it which sank it. End of documentary roll credits. All right, so Miguel Sosa, recently was on billboards from London to Japan as part of the big Ugg advertising campaign.
