Starting point is 00:00:42 and just say, okay, no, I didn't like the way that sounded. Let's start, let's start, breathe easier, no. If you've been losing sleep over Mike Richards as the executive producer of Jeopardy and Wheel of Fortune. Since he got the axe as the host, but was still hanging on by his fingernails to be executive producer. He's out. Have a nice day.
Starting point is 00:01:18 Take care. Oh, yes, you can breathe easy and sleep better. I know. I know. Staff members were notified through a while. an email that from the executive vice president of business and strategy at Jeopardy and Wheel of Fortune, we had hoped that when Mike stepped down from the host position at Jeopardy, it would have minimized the disruption and internal difficulties we've all experienced these last few weeks.
Starting point is 00:01:49 Clearly, that has not happened. Between the lines, hey Mike, get the fuck up. out. Welcome. Welcome to chewing the fat. And I don't want to hear that he was always because he rigged the system for himself to get the job. No, it wasn't. He wasn't the only one that decided it. And I realize, believe me, I realized that in this business and many businesses across the country, when they post a job opening, you know, Host needed. Or we knew, I mean, we knew they were going to be looking for a new host on Jeopardy, didn't we?
Starting point is 00:02:41 You already have a person in mind for that position. So the posting is just a formality. Yes, we're looking for a host. It's yours, Mike. Don't worry about it. So maybe Mike was saying, host needed. I'm just going to give it to myself. but we've got to go through this formality.
Starting point is 00:03:02 It was a long formality. I mean, they brought in all these people. He covered his tracks. He tried to cover his tracks good. You know what? Now I'm starting to believe that it was his fault. He covered his tracks good by bringing in all these co-hosts to make it look like he was actually serious.
Starting point is 00:03:21 Went all along. No, no, no, no. I bet you that. Now the investigation is final. That's why they finally gave him the axed. there's got to be some kind of email chain where he was saying, yeah, don't worry about it, we're going to bring in about 10 or 12 hosts,
Starting point is 00:03:36 co-hosts, but just get rid of them, no matter what the ratings are, no matter what people think, it's me. That's what it is. I am so glad that that bastard is gone. I can't tell you. I am sleeping better now. I am.
Starting point is 00:03:54 All right, let's... Can we actually talk about something and kind of serious. I know, I know, it's chewing the fat. But I was, well, I was watching some of the footage from Louisiana. And, you know, it's now a tropical depression,
Starting point is 00:04:15 Ida, hit Louisiana as a category four. I mean, winds 150 miles an hour. At least four deaths have been blamed on the storm. I'm surprised that it's only four deaths. Maybe we'll get a lot more as we start going through the debris and the rubble and the storm damage. I mean, one of those people presumed dead. I don't know if it's added to the count or not was the guy who was supposedly eaten by the gator. Right?
Starting point is 00:04:48 He went back upstairs. There was a gator in the water, and then they came back for him and he was gone. So, I mean, I doubt if the gator put him on a dead roll. that he's alive still, but he still may not be totally eaten from the gator. But that could happen even more in that area. But I mean, a million homes and businesses without power
Starting point is 00:05:11 could be weeks before the power is back on. It crushed the transmission system that provides most of the energy along the coast. The energy, the New Orleans-based energy utility, said as of Monday, 2,000 miles of its transmission lines were out of service. And the Department of Energy said it could take up to three days just to fully assess the damage
Starting point is 00:05:41 and even begin to repair them. I mean, they're still just standing around going, holy cow. Well, this thing did some damage. How about hook up the lines? Do something. So we have homes without powers, businesses without power, hospital without powers. Mississippi and Southern Louisiana don't have safe drinking water. You know, food going bad.
Starting point is 00:06:10 No air conditioning. And it's still only, well, it was going to be 100 here in DFW today. First day of September, for those of you listening live. And so it's almost fall, right? When is the official due date of fall? I think it's sometime this month, right? Later around this month, the 20th or the 21st, somewhere in there. Somewhere of the 20s, it's supposed to be fall, okay, of this month.
Starting point is 00:06:36 So we're still a few days away from actual fall weather, as you can tell, since it's going to be in the hundreds. And wow, is that going to be bad? I mean, you don't have windows and screens in your home, if you have a home, and it's still going to be cranking out heat-wise, just horrible. I know Governor Edwards told residents who evacuated before the storm, yeah, go ahead and just stay where you're at. We really can't handle you right now, so you go ahead and just stay where you're at.
Starting point is 00:07:12 Tulane began evacuating students to Houston. Okay, I mean, the storm's over. I'm not sure if you were fine now, why not just stay where? Anyway, and in Grand Isle, Louisiana, which I know that they love considering themselves the remote oasis, it's that barrier island in the Gulf of Mexico. It is uninhabitable. I mean, everything is just covered in sand. It's over.
Starting point is 00:07:42 I mean, I don't know. Do we let them move back in? Or do we say, you had a home on there. Here's your money. You can't rebuild. No, we're not rebuilding. Or if you do rebuild, we are not going to insure you. You build at your own risk.
Starting point is 00:07:59 I mean, I don't know what you do in that situation. Of course they're going to say now, of course we're going to rebuild. I mean, the parish president or whatever for Grand Isle is it going to say, that's it for me. We're wrapped up. Have a nice day. Good luck. God bless.
Starting point is 00:08:15 That's not going to happen. I know. But no power, no water, no gasoline. Holy cow. they definitely need thoughts and prayers and definitely need your help if you can't be there or get down there to help you can donate
Starting point is 00:08:30 to Mercury 1 I mean I know they have all the stories mention all hands and hearts and there's local charities called Another Golf is Possible and feed the second line but if you're not sure about any of those you can always count on Mercury 1.
Starting point is 00:08:50 to be there and help and we'll definitely be there. Just horrible. I saw where I had the story about the guy that confronted the MSNBC morning show reporter. He was down there pre-storm in Gulfport, Mississippi. And you see it behind him where he's doing those live shot. And they throw it to him. Hey, I'm a Brewster. How are you doing out there?
Starting point is 00:09:16 Oh, you can see the wind is picking up and he's doing as usual normal morning weather. live shot, you know, pre-storm. And then you see behind him this truck stops. There's a white pickup truck stops, and a guy gets out and starts running toward him. And I say, holy cow. Now, the cameraman obviously sees it in the camera man. I don't know if the cameraman holds up a sign like, hey, look him up behind you. But the guy runs up to the cameraman and starts hauling at the cameraman.
Starting point is 00:09:41 Amazingly, he didn't run right up to the reporter. And you can hear him. So the reporter kind of moves off to the right a little bit just to kind of get out of the way. And he's still trying to hang on to his report. and then the guy starts hollering at him coming toward him, and that's when Brewster said, oh, back to you.
Starting point is 00:09:58 Throw it back to New York, have a nice day. And New York is like, hey, hey, hey, hey, a lot of crazies out there. What's going on? You think the guy is all wound up? Well, apparently, he was a crazy. He is a 54-year-old who once pleaded guilty to vandalism, inducing panic and attempted assault from Ohio.
Starting point is 00:10:19 on probation. What are you doing down there? He's that's what he's mad about. He's on probation in Louisiana hiding out and now he's got to be thrown out into the open with a storm. I mean, he had to stop and holler at a network television reporter. Right?
Starting point is 00:10:35 I mean, he had to. And he's screaming, get their reports right. Dude, maybe you ought to just stay in hiding. Okay, just take it easy, all right? So next time you want to holler, I just time you want to holler at a TV reporter, you don't have to. That's just a, that's a chewing the fat rule of thumb, too.
Starting point is 00:10:53 Remember that. When you see a microphone and a camera in front of you, you don't have to speak or talk. I know. And if you see a reporter outside somewhere doing a report, you could just drive by. I know. You don't have to just stop and start hollering at them.
Starting point is 00:11:13 Weird. I know. But it's true. Then we have, if that, wasn't enough going on. We have thousands of people being evacuated from northern California as the Calder Fire continues to burn. Fire has been raging since the 14th of August has spread because of the high winds and dry conditions.
Starting point is 00:11:38 It's burned over 191,000 acres. Wow, that's just this one calder fire. It's only 16% contained forcing California. and Nevada's governors to declare states of emergency. Plus, the USDA Forest Service is closing all national forests through the middle of this month. Although, they're closing it almost to the beginning of fall. So I guess it'll be all wrapped up by them.
Starting point is 00:12:06 And I know that I know that I just want to remind you that, sure, sure, it only looks like the world is on fire. You have actual wildfires in Turkey, Greece, and North Africa. And then you've got other countries that, you know, stuff is going on in. I don't know which one comes to mind first. Off the top of my head, I'd say, Afghanistan. But the good thing is, the United Nations and the U.S. health and human services have decided to set up an office to address climate change and health equity.
Starting point is 00:12:49 So we're good. So if you plan on doing any business with Nike, any of the corporate muckety mucks, you might want to get it done this week because they're going to be closed next week. They are shutting down the corporate offices next week because the employees at the corporate offices need to prioritize mental health. Now, sure, we still want to get work done, but we support our people, and it's the right thing to do. The company said that the time off is intended for employees to refresh and recharge during the ongoing pandemic. Now, you say to yourself, really? What if I wanted to buy
Starting point is 00:13:37 Nike shoes at the Nike corporate stores? Now, they're still open. They don't give a crap about you, and your salespeople at the store level. And you can probably still call their toll-free numbers and get people who answer in Panama that work for the toll-free number of Nike. But the corporate offices are going to be closed. So that's good. They're going to get that paid week off.
Starting point is 00:14:06 But you people that... You low-life people that work at the... stories. Yeah. I mean, we appreciate your mental health issues too, but you're most definitely not as important as we are. Okay. So get that through your little worker mind. Okay. We're going to take a week off. We're shutting it down. I don't want to read emails. I don't want to take phone calls. I don't want any, I don't even want you to text me and say, hey, how you doing? No. That means I have to start thinking about work. I want to completely shut down so I can
Starting point is 00:14:47 recharge. Okay? And if you are working at the store, make sure you continue to sell the shoes so that the company can still continue to pay for me to take time off. Okay? Okay, thank you. Take care. I mean, we might as well go to the break
Starting point is 00:15:03 room. I need a little mental health break myself, and I need a refreshment break with a nice, ice cold. antique Coca-Cola Zero Black Can So those of you that follow
Starting point is 00:15:25 Shana Chappell on Instagram know that she has her account reinstated because Instagram pulled her account and then they said Ooh, hey no that's an error
Starting point is 00:15:38 Whoa man we are sorry We really didn't mean to do that. It's a huge mistake. You're a grieving mother, and we express our deepest condolences, and to Miss Chappell and her family, her tribute to her heroic son
Starting point is 00:16:00 does not violate any of our policies. Oh, okay, well, that's nice. Yeah, she's the one that went off on Joe from being at, Dover when the fallen heroes were coming home. And she went off saying, you know, calling Biden's negligent, ignorant, traitor. That's a few of the words she used. And, you know, she was upset because she was talking to him,
Starting point is 00:16:36 and he went off on his little story about Bo. And he's looking at his wife. watch. We've seen all those pictures. Now, I'm not giving the president the benefit of the doubt. Well, I kind of am. A little bit. A little bit. The guy is horrible. We know that. And he is there because he has to be. I guess it was worse if he didn't go. A lot of the parents and family members said they didn't want him there. So I guess he chose to go there when the bodies were coming home because he had to. But to give him a little bit of break
Starting point is 00:17:16 about looking at his watch during that time, he was looking at his watch because he's got a hurricane barren down on Louisiana and he's got to go over to FEMA. Right? Because remember the audio of him saying, I'm going to talk about Afghanistan today and walked away from the reporter that was at FEMA. And that was immediately following this
Starting point is 00:17:36 because he said he started off that little chat to the press over a Joe and I just got back over and our condolences. He started that off that way. Now, he's just terrible. And he doesn't care about these soldiers at all. If he cared about him at all, they most likely wouldn't be dead. It's just a thought.
Starting point is 00:17:57 So he's there, and he's like, you know, it's not Bo. And when somebody talks to me, he's trying to connect with them. Instead of just shut up, just let these people grieve and tell you their stories and give them a hug and move the hell away. You're freaking, and I almost said something bad. So we'll just go ahead and move on. Okay, yeah, we'll just let that one go. Anyway, good for her.
Starting point is 00:18:22 She's got her Instagram account back up because it was an error. My account didn't go away yet. So you can follow me at Jeff Fisher Radio. Facebook, Jeff Fisher Radio as well, and Twitter at Jeff EJFR. I'm still on my Instagram account, and this is still something I'm striving for,
Starting point is 00:18:41 but I'm just, just underneath, what's her face? You know, Angelina Jolie, just underneath her as far as, you know, followers. So you can maybe, you know, help me out and get me a little bit closer to Angelina. Angelina's, I think, she's got a little over 10 million. So slowing down a little bit.
Starting point is 00:19:05 Ooh, man, she needs to post a little bit more. Has she posted anything else? the other, she's got three posts now. She's following three, she's got three posts, she has 10.1 million followers. Is she still following? Yeah, the same three, that's right. The NAACP,
Starting point is 00:19:20 Doctors Without Borders, and the UN Refugees account. That's by the people that she's in charge of, right? She's the big spokesperson for the UN refugees. So she doesn't, just, she's slow it down. Okay, she's got just a little over 10.1 million followers, so you can follow me. and get me a little bit closer to that because I'm just about there so close so did you see the video of the lady that ends up smoking on a spirit airline and people are all wound up and I can excuse me you can't smoke cigarettes right now excuse me so this lady's on a spirit airline and she flies into Florida all right she flies into Fort Lauderdale on spirit
Starting point is 00:20:08 and so they're taxying into the they're already they've already landed and she pulls down her mask and fires up a butt I love this lady because you know you can actually smoke on a plane if you go in the bathroom you just can't you can't you can't tear apart the smoke alarm if you take if you tear apart the smoke alarm now you're in trouble but if you go in the bathroom and smoke and the smoke alarm goes off you're fine well yeah the smoke alarm's going off and you're you're fine well yeah the smoke alarm's going off and You can get yourself a couple of quick hits and just flush it down the toilet. You're good. I mean, you maybe get a fine.
Starting point is 00:20:45 Maybe. Maybe they escort you off the plane when you land. Like they did this lady. So they video her tape, it's awesome. She's got her mask down and she's smoking. And according to the story, the nicotine addict nonchalantly replied. Spent a long day. That is awesome.
Starting point is 00:21:13 I want to be on the plane with her. I do. I stick up for her. No, I didn't see anybody smoking. I didn't smell it anyway. So this inconsiderate nicotine addict, a blue smoke reportedly in an asthmatic passenger's faith. Shut up. Come on.
Starting point is 00:21:36 This lady. ate a peanut and breathed towards someone who was allergic to peanuts. Come on. So, apparently they were trying to get her to put it out. Excuse me! Excuse me!
Starting point is 00:21:52 They're not smoking. Yeah, I know. It's been a long day. Leave me alone. I've been waiting to get to Florida. I'm here. I need a cigarette. Desperately. And then they say she had a... What was the drink? She had a double cranberry vodka reportedly. I guess as there's
Starting point is 00:22:07 they're escorting her off the plane. She had a double cranberry vodka, too. She had a double cranberry vodka too. I mean, shut up. So they noticed the smoke, the flight attendants noticed the odor, and the other guests, of course, were, that's her, that's her. And so she put her cigarette out in the drink. And they get up to the gate and in come the authority.
Starting point is 00:22:35 They called the authorities. These bastard spirit airlines. So they called the authority the Broward Sheriff's Office Airport District show up. And they escort her off. They don't handcuff her. They even say in the video,
Starting point is 00:22:49 hey, you got something like her. They holler off. I mean, she's not rowdy. She's not disrespectful. She just, she is disrespectful. She's a nicotine addict that couldn't wait. So they escorted her off the plane.
Starting point is 00:23:06 and you'd think, I don't know what the fine is, I don't know what any of that is, but she complied with being escorted off the plane. I mean, they were at the gate. She wanted, everybody else wanted to get off too. If I'm on that plane, I'm like, hey, how about you let me off? We're at the gate. I didn't smoke.
Starting point is 00:23:27 I didn't drink. You can do whatever you want with her. How about you let me off? Okay. But no, they got to wait to escort her off. and she complied because she wanted to get off the plane. And so they say in the story, no arrests were made. What the hell happened?
Starting point is 00:23:46 Nothing. She got off the plane first. That's what you got to do. That was a smart move. We're out the tarmac or they're taxying up. How do I get off this plane? Fire up a butt. And you get escorted off first.
Starting point is 00:24:03 You don't even get arrested. that's awesome and I don't know what the fine is that's interesting we have to see if you can see what they report what the FAA or what they say the fine is for smoking on a plane
Starting point is 00:24:18 and she probably gets banned from oh no she won't be able to fly Spirit Airlines anymore or at least for a year or whatever but I bet the fine is what a couple thousand bucks maybe two to four thousand yeah okay that's an
Starting point is 00:24:34 expensive cigarette though, bro. That's an expensive cigarette. Plus, you're not, you know, if she's flying spirit, she probably doesn't have the two to four thousand. And so that's going to hurt. And was it worth it? It was a long day. It was a long day and she got off the plane first. Amen. So it looks like Zoom is in trouble. Right? The pandemic's over. So now they're in trouble. According to this, Zoom's plunging sales growth is the The latest sign that the pandemic winners are hitting a wall. In an earnings call earlier this week, Zoom said revenue grew 54% to hit a billion dollars in quarter two. And that still sucks, okay?
Starting point is 00:25:36 Are you kidding me? So they grew 54% and hit a billion dollars and they're struggling. The pandemic's over. done because the company actually reported 191% growth in quarter one and the quarter before that 369% growth so it's gone down a little
Starting point is 00:26:04 all right it's still there life is getting pretty tough when you make a billion dollars and yeah no where it's over it's over I mean stock prices fell everything, it's over. You only made a billion. Yeah. I mean, companies do that all the time. They throw out there, oh, we're going to project $8 trillion, and then they make $6 trillion. That's over. Well, you made $6 trillion. Yeah, but we projected eight, and now we just, we suck.
Starting point is 00:26:38 That's incredible. That's amazing. So anyway, Zoom is over. They're done. Shut it down. Stop your Zoom accounts. I know you still use it, but don't, because they're over. It's over. They're not even, I'm surprised. The app probably doesn't even show up on your computer anymore. That's how over they are. Google is now saying, not so fast coming back to the office.
Starting point is 00:27:00 No, we like you. But how about you wait until January? I know we told you to come back a little bit earlier, but, you know, things are starting to look at. Delta, Delta variant. And how do you just stay there? We're good. We're good with you staying home, okay?
Starting point is 00:27:24 We'll see you in January. And we'll let you know. We'll let you know about that, okay? That's good. That's good. I know. I know. And today is the day, if you're listening live,
Starting point is 00:27:38 we talked about it earlier, September 1st, 2021. China has now issued a strict, New Measure aimed at curbing what they describe as youth video game addiction. New rules are banning
Starting point is 00:27:55 minors, not those kind of minors, from playing video games entirely between Monday and Thursday. Between Monday and Thursday, no video games. You can only play games between 8 and 9 p.m.
Starting point is 00:28:12 on Fridays and weekends and on public holidays, one hour a day on Friday, Saturday, Sunday, and a public holiday, because we do have a public holiday, at least here in America, coming up soon. I don't know when the next Winnie the Pooh holiday is in China, but I'm sure there's some coming up. Now, you say to yourself, my gosh, they're really locking down. Yeah, because yesterday, yesterday there was too much freedom in China. That's why they had to lock it down.
Starting point is 00:28:41 because yesterday they allowed minors, not those kind, to play games for an hour and a half per day, three hours on public holidays. How could you even survive? I mean, it was like a madhouse. It was wild. Children were run around crazy playing video games for an hour and a half a day and three hours on weekends and public holidays.
Starting point is 00:29:08 No more. No more, you little Chinese money. Miners, no more. Got that? Not those kind of minors. No more. You're only going to play an hour a day on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday, and whatever you, we have a public holiday when you're out celebrating Winnie the Pooh. You can play an hour on that day, too.
Starting point is 00:29:28 8 to 9 p.m. as well, not during the day and not later on 8 p.m. to 9 p.m. I mean, they're not far from just shooting you in the head. Oh, you were playing video games? Oh, yeah, he was playing at 905 p.m. We can't have that. In fact, we may let you live at the 905. If they bust you just stop, yeah, if we catch you one more time. Oh, whoa, whoa, we don't need to waste bullets, man.
Starting point is 00:29:59 They cost money. You get one shot to the head, that's it, man. What do you think this is? This is not capitalism. We're not a capitalist country. We're not wasting things here. One bullet, thank you. Bullet to the.
Starting point is 00:30:10 back of the head, that's it. All right. So they have, they're going to give you, they're going to let you live, maybe at the 905 mark. But if you're found out after a couple of hours, like it's 10 p.m.
Starting point is 00:30:25 And you're playing a video game. Hello. Have a nice day. But my son, yeah, he should not have been playing video games. It's 10 p.m. at night. Oh my gosh. It's actually like a Tuesday or something.
Starting point is 00:30:42 something, they may do the whole family then. They may waste bullets on the whole family. If you let your kid, you're minor, not that kind, play video games on a day where it's banned, the whole family goes. I mean, you are, oh, the dog, whatever, who is ever there, man, the cat, whatever kind of lizard you got crawling around the house, they're all dead, man. It's over. So apparently, when we know, we've talked a little bit about how Chinese authorities in recent months have targeted the e-commerce and online education, and they have implemented new regulations to curb anti-competitive behavior
Starting point is 00:31:21 after years of rapid growth in the technology sector. Yeah, I don't like that anti-competitive behavior. And the gaming restrictions are part of their crackdown on technology companies, because, you know, those technology firms, they provide ubiquitous messaging payments and gaming services, and they have an outsized influence
Starting point is 00:31:44 on society. We don't want any of that. And last month, authorities banned companies that provide tutoring in core school subjects from making a profit. So we don't want you doing any tutoring because what's
Starting point is 00:31:58 happening is that you're teaching our kids' stuff that we don't like you. Teaching them. So you can't make... Just stop making money. No way for you to make money? Why make the product? Otherwise, we're going to
Starting point is 00:32:10 stop in and take a look at your company and perhaps maybe Oh, yeah, shoot, man, what happened? Oh, no. Because nobody knows who they are, right? You know who Jack Ma is? Right now, he just disappeared. He was just gone.
Starting point is 00:32:24 And I was really surprised that he showed up again. I thought for sure he was just going to be gone. What happened? Yeah, what happened to Jack Ma? Gone. It's gone. We don't know what happened to Jack. Oh, was that Jack?
Starting point is 00:32:40 No, no, we don't know what happened to him. But he showed up again. But he was singing. a different tune, man. He was singing a different tune when he came. So life is okay for Jack now, because he's still, you know, he's still missed a rich guy, but there's no more
Starting point is 00:32:53 outsized influence on society from dear Jack. No, no. Ching Ping, whatever his name is, Winnie the Pooh, shut that down hard. So times are looking good in China, man. Times are looking good. And if you're in Taiwan and Hong Kong, thumbs up to you
Starting point is 00:33:14 times are even going to get better and better for you you can count on that so hearing those gunshots made me think about the Dallas Police Department we talked I don't know last week or the week before how they lost a bunch of data on cases and they had to release one attempted murder crime suspect was just let go
Starting point is 00:33:53 got the information on the trial no that's gone Oh, okay. Have a nice day. No, we have it. Oh, too late. So apparently they're moving information from one server to another server, and the IT guy was on a spirit airline smoking a cigarette, didn't know what he was doing and messed up and just, oh, man, did I hit the wrong? Did I hit the delete button?
Starting point is 00:34:18 Oh, shoot. Man, I'm sorry. So they've lost more data now. incredible and look it's just archival information that's all it doesn't mean anything it's just you know
Starting point is 00:34:34 missing gone what is happening in Dallas man speaking to Dallas what's going on with Colonel Allen West why have we not heard anything about him and his wife and the arrest there has the mayor and the chief of police
Starting point is 00:34:51 bent the knee to Alan West gone to his home and apologized yet? Has that happened? Because I haven't seen any video of it. I haven't seen any reports of it. Is she still facing charges?
Starting point is 00:35:06 Because if she is, that's a crime in and of itself. But maybe the information got lost. Maybe it got lost. Maybe we don't know where it is. Maybe the Dallas Police Department being these, well, some would say incompetent, but not me. Not me. because, I mean, I live here in DFW, and so I'm not, no way it might call on a police department incompetent.
Starting point is 00:35:28 But I've heard others call them that. And, I mean, maybe the information is just missing and we let her go. But how come we don't have an update on Allen West? Get him on the phone. Just call, just call him. Just call him and say, hey, Colonel West, let's chew in the fat. We want to talk to you. He'll jump on in a heartbeat.
Starting point is 00:35:47 I'll tell you what, I'll talk about COVID for just a little bit. and you reach out to Alan and you just tell him that it's chewing the fat and we want to talk to him about about how he hasn't gotten the mayor or the police chief to come and bend the knee to his house yet.
Starting point is 00:36:06 That'll go over good. It'll go over great. He'll love it. He'll jump right on the phone and he'll want to talk about it for sure. So yesterday, you go ahead and do that. Yesterday, I'll do this. The European Union
Starting point is 00:36:19 yesterday announced that 70% of adults in its 27 member countries have been fully vaxed against COVID-19. Pretty, pretty, I mean, that's a good number. Remember, we did the story on Australia where they're going to take all their lockdowns and circuit breaker lockdowns off the chart. Well, not right now we're going to do it, you know, when we get to 80% fully vaxed. We're looking at maybe getting there. the first of the year or something like that maybe but not yet now uh in the EU which is great i mean
Starting point is 00:36:58 70% of adults in the 27 member countries however they're talking about oh yeah we're gonna we're gonna maybe relax some of the restrictions but uh not uh who not when it comes to those americans that are unvaccinated no way we are not we don't want those people in our countries okay and we also have countries like Denmark, Belgium, and Portugal have 80% of the adults vaccinated. But Romania and Bulgaria, yeah, not so much. Those people are not getting vaccinated. We need to do something with Romania or Bulgaria. Maybe we call China and see if they could give us an idea. You know, maybe we stop in, have China stop into Romania and Bulgaria, drive around a little bit, knock on a few doors.
Starting point is 00:37:55 Hello? Are you vaccinated? No. And China could take care of it for us. It would be great, wouldn't it? Yeah, it'd be great. And just when you think, hey, the Delta variant, Delta variant, Delta variant, be on the lookout for,
Starting point is 00:38:15 Delta variant. We're now monitoring a new coronavirus variant named Moo. Okay. Stop it. M-U. M-U. I don't know if it came from cows. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:38:34 That's M-O-O-Jep. Oh, okay. M-U is like Moulon. Oh my gosh. Where did Moulon come from? Oh my gosh, it's a Moulon variant. I can't believe it. So it's known scientifically as B.
Starting point is 00:38:56 dot 1.621. And it's been classified as a variant of interest. Ha, yeah. The Moulon variant is now classified as a variant of interest. So the World Health Organization put this out in their weekly pandemic bulletin. Why am I not on the weekly pandemic bulletin email list? You make that happen. So the who said, not the ban, said that the variant has mutations that indicate a risk of resistance to vaccines
Starting point is 00:39:40 and stressed that further studies were needed to better understand it. So let me get this straight. Some of the experts said that once we start getting people vaccinated, that these new variants would come because the mutations of the COVID-19 would say, whoa, hey, there's a vaccine in there. And there's a vaccine in them there, hills. We need to figure out something.
Starting point is 00:40:07 And it does. and it mutates oh wait a minute is that the name of the very and it's not moo it's mu m u could be I don't know
Starting point is 00:40:22 I don't know I'm just saying what it's called MU is that moo long or mu somebody get the world health organization out of the line when you're done trying to get
Starting point is 00:40:34 Alan West on the line get the who on the line and let not the band although i'll talk to the band too but uh get the who on the line and find out what the heck is going on because i want to know is it moo or moo i don't know what's what is it now we have found out that we may have some new tools to fight against covid which is good news always good news. We now know that a particular venom from a Brazilian snake has inhibited coronavirus reproduction in monkey cells, which is a first step toward a drug to combat the virus causing COVID-19.
Starting point is 00:41:28 So a study that was published in the scientific journal molecules. Wow. There's two things I don't subscribe to today. I don't get the World Health Organization weekly pandemic bulletin, and I usually, I thought I got all the journals, but I don't get the scientific journal molecules. So this month, the molecule,
Starting point is 00:41:58 the molecule is produced by the geraraara ruckusa a pit viper Geraricusu J-A-R-A-R-A-C-U-S-U Pit Viper Geraricusu Girarakusu Jara-A-C-U
Starting point is 00:42:18 Pit Viper So apparently this molecule is a peptide or chain of amino acids that can connect with an enzyme of the coronavirus called PL-Pro Plow Pro
Starting point is 00:42:35 wait. Geraricusu. And which is vital to reproduction of the virus without hurting other cells. So that's good. We've got to look for the Gerara Roussekousou. Gerarikusu. Pit Viper to take care of that.
Starting point is 00:42:49 And where are we at in the world? I'll tell you where we're at. At a dairy queen in Vancouver. A guy came in to order his blizzard, I guess. They didn't say what he wanted, what he had ordered. But the people at, but the people at, I don't know if you was there for a COVID shot. He may have been. But he was told to put a mask on from those bastards at Dairy Queen. Those evil people working at Dairy Queen, hey, we're not going to give
Starting point is 00:43:18 you a blizzard unless you put a mask on. Got it? And so he was unhappy, really unhappy with having to wear a mask at the counter of the Dairy Queen. Dude, all I came in for was a blizzard. Okay, don't make me wear a mask. All right. You put on a mask and you're not going to get a blizzard. That's it. So you could watch CCTV footage of him unzipping his pants and urinating all over the
Starting point is 00:43:49 counter. And then he zips back up and walks out. That'll teach you. Go ahead. Tell somebody else to put a mask on. Go ahead. I mean, I don't recommend doing that to. to any place that has a counter.
Starting point is 00:44:09 I don't, but then again, what are you doing? The guy didn't want to wear a mask. He just wanted a blizzard. Give the man his blizzard and let's move on with your life. And now what are you doing? Huh? Now you're wearing a mask. You're wiping up this guy's urine all over the counter.
Starting point is 00:44:26 You probably had to close the store up because the health department wants to see that crap bleached down even in Vancouver, okay? They want that stuff bleached down good. I don't care where you're at. Some guy walks away after urinating on your counter. Probably going to want to have you hose it down a couple of times. Just a thought.
Starting point is 00:44:50 And I also saw this is kind of disturbing news, and I'm not real sure I like it, but it's good news for Ireland and disturbing news for the world. population in Ireland now has reached 5 million. Ha! I mean, we thought the potato famine took them down. But no, they're back. Ireland is back.
Starting point is 00:45:18 And this time, they're pissed. Stream and subscribe to more Blaze Media content at theblaze.com slash podcasts.
