Starting point is 00:00:00 When I got a great deal on a great gift at Winners, I started wondering, could I get fabulous gifts for everyone on my list? Like this designer fragrance for my daughter. At just $39.99, how could I resist? This luxurious will throw for my sister. This gold watch for my partner? A wooden puzzle for my niece? Leather gloves for my boss?
Starting point is 00:00:19 Ooh, European chocolate for the crossing guard? At these prices, could I find something for everyone at Winners? Stop wondering. Start gifting. Winners, find fabulous for less. Blaze Radio Network And now, Chewing the Fat with Jeff Fisher. Have you seen the video, it was originally a TikTok video, that showed an employee at Waffle House holding a baby while working? I mean, it went viral.
Starting point is 00:00:48 I mean, it had 41,000 people commenting on it. It emassed millions of views. And it showed an employee filling orders while holding the baby. And the text over the video read, Ain't no why she got her baby in here. SMH. It's shaking my head for those of you that don't know what SMH stands for. And plenty of,
Starting point is 00:01:15 you know, plenty of the comments were expressing admiration and they were loving this girl, nothing but respect. And I hope people realize that this was probably her last resort. You got to do what you've got to do. That's a strong queen. My respect for her.
Starting point is 00:01:33 One person came forward claiming to be the employee in the video. And her comment received more than 147,000 likes. This is me on the video. Since she is my niece, it was either I take her or this was so she brought to me to 30 a.m. and I was already at work. She is my niece. It was either I take her or This was so she was brought to me
Starting point is 00:02:06 2.30 a.m. And I was already at work. Some interesting sentences on social media. So Waffle House, of course, breaks out the investigation. And they posted on their Twitter account, we have investigated the TikTok video and have determined
Starting point is 00:02:26 that the media portrayals and the social media posts are not accurate. While an employee of ours was recorded, holding a baby at work, she is not related to that baby in any manner, never identified
Starting point is 00:02:44 herself as the person in the TikTok video, never provided a cash app account to receive any donations, which many of those comments did, never gave an interview to any media outlet never was suspended from her job. Thus, people who are donating to any cash app related to
Starting point is 00:03:05 this story likely have been scammed by someone unrelated to our employee, although we understand that our employee held a baby belonging to her co-worker in an attempt to quickly settle the crying child. And we have taken this opportunity to coach and retrain our employee and her co-workers on our safety guidelines that govern working behind the counter. So she, you know, shouldn't have taken the baby behind the counter. But, you know, obviously she was just doing it to help the mother. Now, knowing that the story, as previously reported, is materially false, we caution against further dissemination of that false story and the damages that might result.
Starting point is 00:03:52 Not to mention the help that might result. Not to mention the help that might give to support an apparent fraud on the public. And the vice president of public relations for Waffle House said that that is the final comment we have on the matter. So all Waffle House employees are not going to get new training. Don't be bringing kids behind the counter. But other than that, the whole whole. thing was, well, I mean, it was real. She was, you know, holding the baby behind the counter trying to get the kid to shut up so the rest of us could eat our food in peace. But other than that,
Starting point is 00:04:35 the rest of it was all BS. Welcome to chewing the fat. Okay, be ready to see new ads on Netflix. Remember we talked a while ago about how Netflix was trying to find a way to interact, commercials with Netflix because nobody wants Netflix with commercials just isn't what they do. But they just teamed up with Walmart to launch a Netflix hub at walmart.com slash Netflix, which they claim will be the biggest online retail destination for Netflix consumer products in the U.S. So examples of products launching on the Netflix hub, you know, Stranger Things, music collection, action figures, squid game apparel, Cocoa Meland dolls, and out-of-twist lab play set. So, you know, Netflix, we love stories to transcend screens and
Starting point is 00:05:37 become a part of people's lives. Yeah, no kidding. So we're working with Walmart, gives us the opportunity to deliver a shopping experience that sets a new level of innovation for the entertainment consumer products space. So I would, venture to say that while at the end or the beginning of Netflix shows, at least their original shows, you will get a hey, for products that you like for this show, go to walmart.com slash Netflix, guaranteed. And that's going to be, that's going to be huge for them. So if you want squid game apparel, you know, like a sweatsuit with a number on it, or
Starting point is 00:06:21 I guess they're pink or fusha suits. If you haven't seen Squid Game, you don't know what I'm talking about, but when you see it, you'll know. So I'm sure that that's going to be a huge fashion statement in the near future. And, you know, we talked a little bit about it yesterday, but they, you know, I know that they're modeling, but I would be sure that that is the new, that's the Halloween out of the season.
Starting point is 00:06:54 The Squid Game outfits will be Halloween. But did you see the picture? I'll show it tomorrow on chewing the fat during Pat Unleased. But I think my favorite Halloween outfit so far this season, I got a picture sent to me through one of the social media sites
Starting point is 00:07:10 of a little girl that has the head of Joe Biden on her shoulder. Like he's sniffing her? Awesome. Really, really funny. Another picture on social media that is really funny. And I'll show this tomorrow during Chewing the Fat on Pat's show as well.
Starting point is 00:07:31 They asked, I'm not sure who was the original sender of this, but because what's his face is going up into space tomorrow, William Shatner, supposed to have been today, but it was too windy. When he comes back down after his 10-minute, you know, theme park ride into space. Everyone should wear the planet of the apes outfit. So it looks like he landed back on the planet of the apes.
Starting point is 00:08:05 Really, again, really funny. And that actually should happen. So yesterday was the 125th Boston Marathon. It's been two and a half years since we've had a Boston Marathon. You know me, man. If you listen to this show, you know I train for marathons. I mean, myself, the USATF, you know, the United States track and field association. Man, I am, I'm all about them.
Starting point is 00:08:42 But, and you know that, you know, I was, we talked about the Quad Cities Marathon where the two guys followed the, the biker the wrong way. Lost the marathon, really, really funny. And I'm not funny for them. I mean, holy cow. And so congratulations to the winners of the Boston Marathon, the professional winners were both Kenyon, Benson Kiprudo, and Diana Kemptai Kipyoga,
Starting point is 00:09:12 won the men and women's fields, respectively, with the man at two hours, nine minutes, and 51 seconds, And the women was two hours, 24 minutes and 45 seconds. I don't know why we still break them up in men and women at the marathon, but that's something that needs to be addressed. I'll tell you that. And then they have the wheelchair division. And I think we have the hop division.
Starting point is 00:09:39 I don't know. Oh, it's just a joke. Stop it. And so, you know, congratulations to the winners of the Boston Marathon. I did like that, you know, they were going to, There were a bunch of people showing up to protest. Kristen Sinema, the senator, who was supposed to run, and they all hate her now. She's got a big cross on her back.
Starting point is 00:10:01 And she didn't run. So that was kind of fun. Although she was there, she just didn't run because of an injury. It would have been nice if she just would have kept saying she was going to show up and then not show up. Really funny. But as I was looking through my marathon history, and we talked about it at one time, you know, how come the marathon is 26.2. miles. It's because the queen wanted the babies in the, in the nursery to be able to see the start of
Starting point is 00:10:26 the marathon. And it was going to end at their, the royal box. So it made the marathon 26.2 miles. And they said, yes, your majesty will do that. And then it was 26.2 miles forever after. But I was looking at some of the history of marathons around the world. Right. So some of the biggest marathons are Boston, Chicago, London, New York, Tokyo, Berlin. And Tokyo has a lot of runners that run in costume. Did you know that? I did not. I mean, I did because that's one of the big marathons I would run in if I was able to get over to Tokyo and run.
Starting point is 00:11:10 Boston is the oldest marathon, the one that the 125th marathon that ran yesterday, founded in 18,000. 1997. Berlin updated its course in 1990 because before then it was just in West Berlin. And so now they've added, you know, other parts of the city tear down this wall. Chicago is the flattest of the marathons. London finishes at a mall. Okay, great. I guess, you know, when you're done running a 26.2, it's time to do a little shopping. You probably need to new pair of shoes. And of course, New York incorporates five bridges that you've got to run across for the New York Marathon. So if you're looking for something different in your marathon running, there you have it. There's some of the greatest marathons in the world. So we know that Apple is going to launch their wallet app. We've talked about that before. And I know that, you know, you can carry your theater tickets and boarding passes and credit cards. And credit cards. and even proof of your vaccination on your smartphones now.
Starting point is 00:12:22 But now we have 20 states that have either considered, tested, or already launched digital versions of driver's licenses that, you know, live on your smartphones. Yay! So Arizona, Connecticut, Georgia, Iowa, Kentucky, Maryland, Oklahoma, and Utah are all, you know, kind of supporting the feature. So you may be able to show the police officer your driver's license on your phone when you, you know, are asked for your identification from a police officer. I'm pretty sure you could get away with that now.
Starting point is 00:13:01 I mean, a police officer, we've seen videos where police are allowing that, even though it's not, you know, a mandated identification. But you'd still be able to get away with it. I'm pretty sure most police officers would allow that. But now, I mean, we're talking about Google, has been working on a verifiable electronic ID into Android and Apple, of course. As I said, is going to have their wallet app. So wonderful. Now, they claim that, you know, of course, not everyone carries around a smartphone. You know, you still have to have your real, you know, physical card that you get from the DMV.
Starting point is 00:13:44 Do you? Okay. I thought IDs were rated. racist anyway. Oh, that's just if you want to vote. Never mind. Sorry. So I know that we have, you know, Delaware and Arizona, they've already launched their mobile ID apps. So they say that they're companions, not physical, not actual replacements. Oh, okay. Well, no problem then. So I know that we have a license app developed in partnership with idemia, IDEMIA, a company best known for providing the technology to the TSA for its pre-checked frequent traveler program.
Starting point is 00:14:26 And so I know Alabama has worked with this company for digital licenses. So that's good. You know what would be good? And I just wish we'd move on from this whole little smartphone thing and states using different apps and what phones can hold the apps. And is it a Google wallet app? is it an Apple wallet app. Why don't we just put a chip in? Okay?
Starting point is 00:14:53 Let's move on with our lives. Just put the chip in so I can just, and we're done. Now, can I, uh, just so the police officer pulls you over and he'll have all your information. If you're out on the street and you're asked for your ID because you're just walking on the street, you're able to just scan.
Starting point is 00:15:14 The police officer will have his scanner. and all your information will just pop right up. They'll know where you live, who you are, whether you've been vaccinated or not. And if you're allowed to be out on the street walking around or you need to get back home. You know what I'm saying? And you might as well do your banking through that chip too. So you go into the store and you get what you want and then poop.
Starting point is 00:15:39 And you takes it out of your account digitally. So it's just digital money being transferred from chip to, chip. Let's just get that done, shall we? I am so sick and tired of this whole privacy thing and, you know, mark of the devil. Let's move on. Put the chip in and shut your mouth. Sure, you have a choice. You have a choice to put the chip in and live, or you can not have a chip and not be able to have anything available to you whatsoever. Sadly, I think that's actually closer than you or I want it to be.
Starting point is 00:16:23 All right, let's go to the break room. I need something cold to drink desperately. Oh, my gosh. So good. So this is kind of a spoiler alert for me as well, because I haven't watched it yet. NCIS, I record it and I watch it. and I watch it, the original NCIS with Mark Harmon.
Starting point is 00:16:52 And I'm a fan. I have been. I mean, he's Jethro Gibbs. If you watch the show, that's his name on the show, Jethro Gibbs. 18 seasons, 18 seasons of Jethro Gibbs. And he's the, you know, he's the main guy. I mean, all the other characters are great, and they're part of the show. But Leroy Jethro Gibbs is the one that holds it together, Mark Harmon.
Starting point is 00:17:14 and the last, you know, the ending part of last season and the beginning of this latest season, he's been kind of out as part of NCIS. He's still, you know, they're still coming to him and he's still got the case. But he's not technically a part of NCIS. And so he's, it happened last season, and he's been questioning whether he's going to come back. He doesn't want to apologize.
Starting point is 00:17:38 He's not admitting. He's not coming back. So this last episode, I'm reading about it. And I haven't watched it. it yet and because I watch it with my wife and I almost watched it last night when I was reading the story. I almost sat down and watched it. So if you like NCIS and you don't want a spoiler alert, just kind of fast forward the podcast a little bit because I'm going to tell you a spoiler alert on Mark Harmon and NCIS.
Starting point is 00:18:04 Apparently, according to what I was reading last night, this last show was his last show on NCIS. what? Come on now. So, you know, I know we've been speculating that they've been working on his character and he's signed a new deal with NCIS. And I know he's the executive producer. He's the guy. The show, actually, we've said it before. The show lasts as long as Leroy Jethro Gibbs is on it.
Starting point is 00:18:33 Can they milk a season or two without him? Sure. Will it, after that, though, no. Not going to have. happen. According to the reviews of this last episode, Leroy opts not to return to his job in NCIS. He tells Tim, I'm not going back. And apparently this happens in Alaska, where, you know, they track down the hitman. They end up in Alaska on the show. And that's where that's where he's going to remain, I guess. Remember, What's Her Face was on the show. And she stayed in Iraq or Afghanistan. That's how
Starting point is 00:19:12 she left the show. So she's, you know, people leave the show. They go away. They don't, you know, some of them have been killed. But, you know, a few of the big names just go away. So it's possible they could come back for a reoccurring role, even, you know, from time to time. Or come back as a main character again. So I guess he's still going to be, you know, executive producer.
Starting point is 00:19:39 He's still going to be, you know, part of the show. I guess he comes back ever so often, but he's not going to be on every episode. That's an issue. That's an issue for me. Because the show, while good without Leroy Jethro Gibbs, do, man, we may have to say a long time goodbye to NCIS. I'll keep you updated on the NCIAS viewing as it goes. And have you watched the Dave Chappelle special yet? Well, the closer.
Starting point is 00:20:18 Really funny. Dave is, you know, Dave Chappelle. He's the guy, right? I mean, he's funny. And he's been, you know, under fire because of the trans community, or at least a couple of the people that work for Netflix was pissed. One of the trans co-show runners for dear white people said she's cutting ties with the company over the Chappelle decision. Good for you. Bye. Because Netflix said she wanted
Starting point is 00:20:49 them to cancel the show and Netflix is like, yeah, that's not going to happen. Sorry. And some of these employees crashed this Netflix high-level quarterly business review meeting last Friday. And one of the engineers who identifies as queer and trans bashed the economy. Bashed the company on Twitter, those employees are, have been suspended. You don't get to just barge into meetings you weren't invited to. Okay. And the, uh, what's your face or what's his face? Jacqueline Moore, the co-show runner, as I said, bye-bye. Have a nice day. Take care. We, you know, good luck. God bless. And, you know, that's, that's the deal. If you, if you believe in it strongly, then quit. If you don't think you can work for Netflix anymore, but I would venture to say that it's a pretty good company
Starting point is 00:21:46 to work for. And over one show that you feel is against the trans community, if you actually watch the show, it isn't. So I would venture to say that good luck, God bless, take care of yourself. Another comedian that wishes that she was Dave Chappelle, Samantha B. Who is, I don't know how she continues with the show. She has, I think, a 30-minute show a week. And it's supposed to be funny. I don't think she's funny at all.
Starting point is 00:22:25 But it claims that she has now admitted that she covered up for former New York Governor Andrew Cuomo because her liberal audience saw him as a hero and a dad. she was a guest on the Sway podcast. I love that Sway podcast with Kara Fisher. So it's not like I was a quomosexual.
Starting point is 00:22:48 You know, I was just many, many times during the pandemic where we had big, you know, show-wide conversations about how do we handle Cuomo because he's super problematic. But the story about him out in the world was like he's a hero.
Starting point is 00:23:05 And he's the only person speaking about the pandemic in a fatherly way, and he's our dad and whatever. Really? So we're not going to make jokes about Andrew Cuomo. We know that. We know it's true. I mean, I guess you say, well, she admitted it. Yeah. I mean, it's something that we already knew that to these comedians, you know, especially someone who, you know, like Samantha B and her shows, completely liberal audience. And so if she goes after the great Andrew Cuomo, it wouldn't hold well with her crowd. Or would it? I mean, at some point, it's comedy, right? You're supposed to be able to go after everyone. It's comedy. Nothing is supposed to be sacred. It's comedy. You know, come to think
Starting point is 00:24:03 of it, that's what makes Dave Chappelle so good. And that's what makes the monster comedians so good that nothing is sacred. It's a joke based on real life. It's just incredible to me that nobody understands that. Black Friday is here at IKEA and the clock is taking on savings you won't want to miss.

Starting point is 00:25:18 The current Superman, John Kent, is going to start a gay relationship and he, with this Jay Nakamura, and the pair share a kiss in issue number five. Tom, the writer, revealed Monday saying that creating another straight white
Starting point is 00:25:37 savior, I just couldn't do it. It would be a real opportunity missed. Right? Yes. He said he's had queer characters and storylines rejected in the past. But he knew he didn't want another straight white male as his superhero. Right.
Starting point is 00:25:57 Okay. So he would feel he didn't want to let people down. And I, you know, I loved every time this happened. But we're in a very different and much more welcome place today than we were 10 or even five years ago. Well, that's a truth. When I was asked if I wanted to write a new Superman with a new for the new number one for the DC, universe, I knew replacing Clark with another straight
Starting point is 00:26:25 white savior could be a real opportunity missed. Thank you. I've always said everyone needs heroes and everyone deserves to see themselves in their heroes. Superman, the strongest superhero on the planet is coming out.
Starting point is 00:26:48 So good. Good. So we know that food prices across the world have risen, let's just say, I don't know, to the highest levels in a decade. That's it, though. Yeah, those whole supply conditions, tight supply conditions and, you know, the demand for goods that, you know, because people, I don't know, want things, you know, like food and agricultural organizations that the United Nations claims there's a robust demand. Man, you think? Well, we know now that we could have a coming fish stick shortage. Yeah, I know.
Starting point is 00:27:30 A customs dispute at the U.S. Canada border is threatening America's supply of a key fish used for popular products such as fish sticks and fast food sandwiches. That is not good news. We know that we could have a coming Christmas tree shortage. So I guess there's a reduced tree supply that's going to happen this season. U.S. oil prices continue to surge. The last time oil finished above $80 a barrel, which it was earlier this week, $80.52 a barrel,
Starting point is 00:28:13 was October 31st, 2014. And if you've been to the gas station lately, you know that that $10 in your tank isn't even close to what it has been. Right. I mean, that is for sure. We also know now that the used subcompact car price, I've gone up for about over 50%. Yeah, I know.
Starting point is 00:28:41 So the Mitsubisi Mirage, the subcompact Mitsubishi Mirage, which is, There's plenty of room in that car. There's a lot of fat guy seating in that car. Not. 50%, 49.9% up in price. Apparently the chip shorty continues to throttle the new and pre-owned car supplies. Duh.
Starting point is 00:29:03 So the average price of the Mirage was $4,457 higher than last year. The lowest prices for vehicles in the U.S. started at $16,290 for the new cars. Wow. The Nissan Electric Leaf went up almost 50%, 46% the Chevy Spark. The cheapest new car currently on sale was selling for 44.7% higher than in 2020. And if you're out purchasing goods and services, really, you know as well as I do that prices are, how shall we put it? a lot more expensive than they were.
Starting point is 00:29:49 So that kind of means your dollar is getting less for more or more for less. You know how it works. A couple more headlines that you need to know about. I don't know what's happening with Bitcoin. I know it's been up and down and still through the roof. But J.P. Morgan, CEO, Jamie Diamond, who has been. been, you know, a very vocal leader of J.P. Morgan. He said that he thinks Bitcoin is worthless and that regulation is coming. So he must have his own, he must have his own currency that he's
Starting point is 00:30:30 ready to put on the shelf. Beaches back open in California. Yes. It's been a little over a week since we had the oil spill and it was all over the beaches and it was the end of the world. And then the cleanup happened and Mother Nature took back what it normally takes back and then we can open the beaches again. Weird how that works, isn't it? Yes, it is. And we know that Drug Maker Merck requested authorization from the U.S. health regulators yesterday.
Starting point is 00:31:03 For those of you listening live, today is the 12th of October 2021. So on the 11th of October, 2021, they requested from U.S. health regulators. they wanted authorization for their antiviral medication combating the effects of COVID-19. Sounds an awful lot like, we did talk about this because it sounds an awful lot
Starting point is 00:31:27 like this is their answer to ivermectin and hydroxychloroquine. But what do I know? What do I know? And we have a study out now that finds aspirin can signage, significantly cut COVID risks. Can I say that word significantly cut COVID risks? And even death. Aspirin.
Starting point is 00:31:53 A new study finds that aspirin may be able to protect COVID-19 patients from extreme risk, including the need for mechanical ventilation. Huh. Isn't that interesting? So another little drug of the past that's cheap that will help once you come down with the virus. That is interesting. Isn't it?
Starting point is 00:32:19 That is interesting. I wonder if Merck or any of the other drug makers will come up with something similar to aspirin that will be able to use. That's going to be a lot more expensive to use than ciliol aspirin and horse paste and hydroxychloroquine. We can't have that. just crazy. And speaking to being crazy, the 16-year-old Wyoming high school student, Grace Smith, Jr. at Laramie High School, she has been arrested because she refuses to wear a mask at school.
Starting point is 00:33:03 So she showed up at school and she wouldn't wear a mask so they find her and suspended her. and then she came back and they find her and suspended her. Then they say, hey, and if you don't leave, then you're going to get a citation and get arrested. Well, she didn't leave. So she was put in handcuffs after refusing to leave. She was later released from the police station. So, you know, we'll see what happens. So what happens is, and there's footage of her being arrested,
Starting point is 00:33:37 and she's playing by their rules as far as getting footage and fighting. back. She said that she talked to her father and her attorney and said that, hey, let's go ahead and see what happens. Let's push it some more. This is ridiculous. They locked down the school after she refused to leave. A student, they knew was there specifically fighting. because she didn't want to wear a mask. So because it was a disciplinary disturbance, then they could close the school and bring in the police and have her arrested.
Starting point is 00:34:22 Amazing. She said she's had six days out of school suspension. That comes from three separate two-day suspensions, $1,000 worth of trespassing fines from our police department for not complying and getting suspended and then refusing to leave school property because I had a right to education. She said the policy made her feel unwanted.
Starting point is 00:34:47 And the father and the attorney said that the district has denied his and his daughter's constitutional rights as a Wyoming resident to make their own health care choices. Hello. So we have a 16-year-old fighting for the rights of everyone. You make the choice. And at the same time, we have adults. on television crying over an email that was sent years ago saying something bad about someone else in that email. Just incredible.
Starting point is 00:35:27 So John Gruden is now gone. Have a nice day. Emails were found in an investigation in the West. NFL was investigating Washington Redskins. I'm sorry, the Washington football team. and they, you know, with emails, and then they found emails from Gruden to other people, and what he said in those emails, you know,
Starting point is 00:35:51 were homophobic and misogynistic, and the original email was talking about, said something about the lips of a black man. He just called the person by his name and said that he had huge lips, so that is racist, I guess. But the other, emails in private emails, by the way.
Starting point is 00:36:14 He went ahead and they've run him off. He's resigned. He even bent the knee. I'm sorry, I never meant to hurt anybody. He's John Gruden. If you didn't think that John Gruden was this kind of guy, you know, a locker room guy in private, because don't forget, these are private emails that were sent. he was sharing in between several people that he, the first information that came out is where he called the NFL Players Association Executive Director, Demora Smith.
Starting point is 00:36:56 He called him Dumerous Smith. And he said that he had, he made fun of the size of his lips. I guess that's racist. All right. I guess that's, I guess that's racist. racist. He used homophobic language, including calling NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell, the F word. He was pissed that he thought Goodell forced Jeff Fisher, not me, the coach, the former NFL football coach, to draft Michael Sam because he was gay. so, you know, he didn't like that.
Starting point is 00:37:38 There were six, the Goodell instructed the league executives to look at more than 650,000 emails during the past few months. That was all part of the workplace misconduct investigation at the Washington football team. Okay. So they, some of these emails include Gruden and Allen, who was gone from Washington. They included businessmen friends. Ed Drosty, co-founder of Hooters. I met Ed before. Jim McVeigh, really good man, executive of the Outback Bowl.
Starting point is 00:38:16 He's the head of the Outback Bowl in Tampa. I know Jim is a good man. I know his son, John. You know, Annily held in a Nick Reeder, the founder of PDQ restaurants, a Tampa-based fried chicken franchise. I think I know someone else that's involved in. the running of the PDQ restaurants as well. But I'm not positive about that,
Starting point is 00:38:37 so I won't throw his name in the fire. And all these exchanges begin as early as 2010. So if, you know, if they're looking in emails and, you know, were they, some of these comments, bad, I guess, yes. Were they, were, did anyone take them seriously? I doubt it. it was something coming from John, right?
Starting point is 00:39:05 And they were forwarded on or they weren't forwarded on. And they sent some pictures of some cheerleaders, Topless to each other. You know, you get a picture in your email of someone Topless and you look and go, oh, holy cow, and then you delete the email. Do you take it serious? No.
Starting point is 00:39:22 If you ever see the girl in real life, do you say, hey, you know, I just got an email a couple of weeks ago of you topless. How about that, huh? there's no question of why were you taking pictures of yourself topless? Oh, no, that's okay. That's right. Never mind.
Starting point is 00:39:39 Never mind. You can have pictures taken of your topless. Just people can't pass them along, right? Right. Okay. So anyway, John Gruden, history. Have a nice day out of the NFL. And, you know, he's why you never bent the knee.
Starting point is 00:39:55 He bent the knee. He said he never meant to hurt anybody. I believe him. Should we have believed him and moved on? I think so. But, you know, he was against the woke community of the NFL, and you can't have that. It's the matcha or the three ensemble

Starting point is 00:41:09 of a fundraiser I'm going to do for our rescue where I'm going to raise money and shave my head for oh you are i know i've been letting my hair grow it's getting kind of long kind of shaggy and i'm kind of getting uh annoyed with it i want to get it cut but i figured hey let's do something good instead of just getting a regular hair cut let's do something fun so raise some money for our rescue they do fantastic work you can go to our rescue dot org and you can see the work
Starting point is 00:41:42 that they do, but soon I will have a way that you can donate to OUR and also get me to shave my head and I'll do live on one of my social media accounts. I want to thank Jesse, who emailed me about the Lego story that we talked about here on the show. He said, I've been buzzing Lego for years, buzzing, I'm guessing building. so we'll say that that was just a spell check wrong. I've been buzzing, building Lego for years, and I don't recall seeing them labeled for boys or for girls.
Starting point is 00:42:22 They do have age range. The only thing I can think of certain sets of which come in more vibrant colors, and instead of being called mini figures in those sets, they are called mini-dowls. Oh, gender-specific. So what I'm guessing is they want to sell more. of those sets and boys don't like them. I couldn't tell you that,
Starting point is 00:42:43 but I've found a friend whose daughter loves the Harry Potter sets and going by what the story says, they aren't designed to look one way or the other. According to Jesse, people just need to chill out. Yes, Lego's saying they're going to, you know, be gender neutral. I always considered Legos as gender neutral. anyway. But, you know, again, maybe that's just me. Thank you to Derek, who emailed the show saying,
Starting point is 00:43:17 I wanted to say you're my favorite radio host. Oh, Derek, thank you. And in fact, he goes on to say, I want to say that you are my favorite radio host, but you aren't. You are the favorite. Oh, I love your shows. I only listen to those other clowns at the Blaze because sometimes they have you on and I love it when you're on there. the place would crumble without you. Thank you. I'm glad someone else noticed.
Starting point is 00:43:45 And since he is athletically overweight as well, he sent me a link to the new hostess limited edition cakes. And of course, it's, you know, fall and we're heading into Halloween. So it's the pumpkin spice hostess cakes. And it looked pretty good, actually. But as I was looking at, I was, you know, just happened about why not?
Starting point is 00:44:07 I'm already there right at the hostess. website, I thought, hey, let's check out the new items at Hostas. And they have new pecan spins. Those actually look really good. And I, you know, they have strawberries and cream crispy minis. They have cookies and cream crispy minis. Yes, I'm willing to try those. They have the lemon drizzle baby bun cakes.
Starting point is 00:44:31 I could be a fan of those. The cinnamon swirl baby bun cakes. The caramel dizzes. ding-dongs are new from hostess. Yes. I am a fan. I want regular ding-dongs, too, though. But regular ding-dongs and caramel ding-dongs, yes.
Starting point is 00:44:48 They have muffin sticks, chocolate chip muffin sticks. They have blueberry muffin sticks. And I started with the pecan swing. So I'm telling you, hostess is a knocking of out of the park and keeping up the good work. I'm hopefully there's not going to be any supply chain issues with hostas. And so thank you. I appreciate it. Very much, Derek.
Starting point is 00:45:15 And then one last email from Jono. And this is a pet peeve of mine. And I'm turning into a jihad, actually. But this and just the other night it happened, driving back from the Mercury One event. Okay, so it's like one o'clock in the morning. And we're driving back and we're stopped at a light. All right.
Starting point is 00:45:37 we stop at a light at 1 o'clock in the morning on a main intersection and all four sides are stopped okay all four sides sitting there waiting for one of the turn lights to happen one of the green light forward lights to happen something that is absolutely unacceptable unacceptable so according to jonah why he sent this to me a saturday morning all right he emailed this to me while on the road. I mean, I'm sure he was stopped here as he was emailing me. Why the hell am I sitting at red lights with eight cars behind me at 6.53 a.m. in rural central Pennsylvania.
Starting point is 00:46:24 There's no other cars anywhere. Honestly, there should be timer red lights anywhere for any reason in rural Pennsylvania. That's BS for no reason. Well, it is a reason. I mean, it's a revenue enhancer. They want people to run the lights. They want people to become so frustrated that they run the lights and they're able to give you tickets. And I say, take a shot.
Starting point is 00:46:47 If there's no police officers around, you know, I'm not telling you to break the law. Okay, that would be wrong. Don't break the law. You should sit at that red light for days unless it turns green. That's what I think. I think no matter what time of day or night, there's a red light. and there's no traffic and no one else around, you should still sit there at that light waiting for it to turn green.
Starting point is 00:47:14 That's what I think. Okay, I think that if you go to walk across the street and there's no traffic and the little walking hand or the little walking person, computerized person, is telling you not to walk, I don't think you should walk. I think you should stand at that corner and wait until that turns green and alerts you the human that you. You are able to go, whether there's traffic or no traffic.
Starting point is 00:47:39 That's what I think. I don't think anyone should ever break the law, ever. It's just frustrating to me that someone would be sitting at a red light with no traffic. And why they have them, I have. That is something you need to take up with your local municipalities and your city managers and find out exactly the reason. Maybe, maybe. Benefit the doubt?
