Starting point is 00:05:54 Okay, so we know now that, that there's an average of 36% of the U.S. workforce is back in the office now, as of last week. Ten major cities, that's according to the last study by Castle Systems of the 10 major cities. So it's the largest share of workers going into the office since the beginning of the pandemic. So I guess we are post-pandemic now. Right? I don't know that there's, I mentioned it this morning on Pat. I don't think we have another variant, really. We talked about that R1, and I think there's a couple of minor ones that have showed up variants from the Delta and the, what's the alpha?
Starting point is 00:06:43 Right? Was Delta and Alpha? I guess. Yeah, something like that. But there's no major one now anymore, right? The rest of the are just, oh, that's just another little variant. Don't worry about it. But nothing big.
Starting point is 00:06:56 They're struggling to hang on to what's happening. And football season has not helped that for sure. I mean, people are seeing stadiums full of people. And there's a few people wearing masks in the stadium. Very few, though. However, we have all that. And yet we still have 4.3 million people who claim to have quit their jobs in August.
Starting point is 00:07:21 That's what the Labor Department said. I mean, that's a pretty big, number. It's 3% of the workforce and they're mostly quitting from restaurants, bars, and hotels. Then 700, according to this, 721,000 left retail gigs. 7606,000 ditched their jobs in professional business services and 534,000 in healthcare and social assistance. So jobs are plentiful. We hear it all a time. there's a labor shortage, but nobody's working. Why is that? We're talking about backlogs of deliveries.
Starting point is 00:08:09 I think what's his face? You know, the president of the United States, Biden. I think he's meeting with some of the big leaders today, talking about all the backlogs in deliveries, backlogs in shipping. Oh, okay. what's that going to do companies are saying well we're going to go to
Starting point is 00:08:30 24 hours a day seven days a week if you don't have people working what does it matter that you have the lights on we're open 24 7 the machines are up and running where are the people well we can't find workers
Starting point is 00:08:49 but we're open 24 7 and I don't know how much more you can pay them I know what's his face, the president, Biden, pay them more. Oh, okay. I mean, how much is more? What's more? What's going to get you back into work? We heard from FedEx not long ago that they're rerouting hundreds of thousands of packages a day
Starting point is 00:09:11 just to get them delivered because they can't find enough work at a number of their warehouses. So, you know, get a job. Get a job. That's the motto. be what's his face's motto from now, you know, the president, Biden. This would be his motto from now on. America, get a job. Or I guess you could just sue somebody.
Starting point is 00:09:38 I see where the Democratic New Mexico governor, Michelle, how do you pronounce the name, Lujan, L-U-J-A-N, she's a governor of one of our great states here in the United States of America, I think that's right. Michelle Lujan. She is now settling her crotch grab complaint for 150 grand. So, I mean, look, for 150 grand, if the Gov wants to spill a little coffee on me and then reach down and, you know, do a little grabbing,
Starting point is 00:10:15 okay, I'm up for that. Wait, no. I mean, I'm okay with that. But apparently she's settling this lawsuit because they found out because of her financial documents that they broke into because it's a sexual harassment claim. Oh, okay. So what actually happened? Well, she poured a bottle of water on this guy's crotch in front of other staffers during a meeting and then grabbed his genitals through his clothes. while she laughed.
Starting point is 00:10:58 I'm not laughing. I'm not laughing. That's horrific. Just horrific. I can't. I think it's horrible. So in today's world, the governor? I mean, in an open meeting?
Starting point is 00:11:11 Come on now. That's, I don't know. What's the word I'm looking for? Dumb? At least you do something like that when you're alone, so you're able to have a little, a little, that didn't happen.
Starting point is 00:11:24 That guy's making it up. But you got people that, you're in an open meeting? Oh my goodness gracious. So apparently, according to the filings, she scheduled payments of $87,500 between April and September, bringing the grand total to $150,000. So I guess she made a couple of payments to the guy equaling $150,000. And she has denied the claims. She was in this big meeting.
Starting point is 00:11:57 I mean, so now at least people are saying, well, no way. We saw it. There's more than one. So you got to, do you believe the governor or do you believe, you know, an office full of people? Everybody's not getting $150,000 that I know of. I mean, is she paying off everybody in the meeting? I'm just saying as horrific as that is. And it is horrific.
Starting point is 00:12:27 if the governor looking for somebody to have a meeting with, call me. So Gabby is still in the news. She is still dead. Don't shake your head. I know. I'm sorry. I don't mean I'm sorry that she's dead. The boyfriend, while it looks like he did it, we can't find him.
Starting point is 00:12:58 Where is he? is he just is he just wandering the woods we can't find him we got little kids wandering off after a couple days they find them they can't find this guy so i don't know what's happening is he you know it's obviously it's been surmised that he is no longer alive that he you know has taken his own life but i don't know i think he's out just you know wandering around the appellation trail bumming cigarettes off of people and someday he'll turn up. I don't know, we'll see. But, you know, the coroner announced, you know,
Starting point is 00:13:36 the details of her body or death, and it's considered a homicide, which, you know, backs the initial autopsy results. And he said that they determined she died by strangulation. But, you know, that's it. That's what you're getting from the coroner. The coroner isn't, you know, Quincy. D-da-d-d-d-d-d-an.
Starting point is 00:14:00 Another tremendous seven. Was that a 70-s show? Probably, yeah. Quincy. That had a great open, too. Where's the Quincy sounder? Yeah, that reminds me. Now I'm looking at the Quincy feed.
Starting point is 00:14:15 That's right, the Quincy actually has a feed. And the Quincy theme song. And when you watch the open for the show, it scans the coroner's office or, you know, the room where they... Cut up the bodies. And it goes to the big mirror, which they zoom in on, and then it turns into the cue for Quincy.
Starting point is 00:14:35 And you see Jack Klugman there? Oh, yeah. We scan in. Come on. There we go. Into the mirror. Q. Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 00:14:53 Then he puts the seat back over the body, and the one guy passes out. There he goes. Ah! That's awesome. Just terrible. Tell me. Tell me that, I mean, come on.
Starting point is 00:15:21 Canon makes this. This is a big hit for Jack Klugman, though. What's this another? Who did this? That doesn't say. Look at that Quincy. I was just looking at how many episodes he has. 148 episode.
Starting point is 00:15:37 Jack Klugman made a little bit of cash off Quincy, man. Yeah, that's right. From the 70s into the 80s. Yeah, by the 80s though, Jack was still, you know, the single. medical examiner Quincy M.E. Investigating cases.
Starting point is 00:15:55 He lived on a boat, right, Quincy? The Quincy live on a boat? I think he did. I think he lived on a boat. And then who was the one that lived in a camper in the parking lot? Oh, that was a trapper. Trapper John MD.
Starting point is 00:16:10 Trapper John. He lived in a camper on the parking lot of the hospital. So just remembering old TV shows. But that theme song, come on now. Canon is like world-class hit compared to the Quincy theme. I mean, please. Where was I?
Starting point is 00:16:36 Oh yeah, Brian Landry. We don't know where he is. All right, let's go to the break room. I need something cold to drink desperately. Oh, oh, that's pop nice. That's a deal. that's you know what that's a diet dr pepper now you tell me the sound of the diet dr pepper can if they become a sponsor of chewing the fat it sounded wonderful but they're not a sponsor so
Starting point is 00:17:04 it didn't pop nice you can quote me on that still pretty darn good though still pretty darn good so this story i've been you know i've always wanted if you're going to be build your own home. If you're going to build your own home, don't you want a big shower so you and your wife can shower, you know, like the, maybe a shower that's for two or two, at least two people with shower heads that clean you. I mean, you want a car wash shower. And you want to be able to walk in. Like, you know, you don't, you don't have to have the big closed door because you want to walk in from one end and the showerheads and blasters are down at the other end. So, you know, you walk I hate having to open and close
Starting point is 00:17:59 sliding doors and stuff is just agonizing. And then you want in your you know for the if you're building your own house you want a urinal and you want a
Starting point is 00:18:14 toilet with perhaps a maybe more than one. You know a couple of toilets and a bidet and, you know, a couple of sinks, and then you're good, right? And now, do you want the toilets separate, like in separate stalls or rooms in your bathroom, or do you want them, you know, just a wide open bathroom?
Starting point is 00:18:43 Because I'm listening to a podcast called Why Won't You Date Me? No, I wasn't listening. That's just Megan Traynor was on a podcast called Why Won't You Date Me? and I'm sorry that I have not listened to it yet. But she was, according to the headline, superstar Megan Trainor. It's all about the bass, Megan Trainor. So I don't know that she's done anything great,
Starting point is 00:19:14 but it lists her as a singer-songwriter, television personality, so congratulations. Anyway, she was discussing on this podcast about her bathroom details with her, husband. And she talked about how they were building their new home and how, you know, they have their baby now. And she said, nobody knows this. But in our bathroom, there was one toilet. And a lot of time in the middle of the night, when we're with the baby, we've got to pee. And so I was like, can we please have two toilets next to each other? And so,
Starting point is 00:19:56 they got two toilets. I mean, you know, hubby was like, well, sure, Megan. Oh, you know, what are you going to say? No, of course. And so they have it together. Now, in her podcast interview, we, they talked,
Starting point is 00:20:14 her brother was on the podcast too. I, you know, Ryan, I guess, you know, Ryan is a great guy. Love Ryan, the brother to Megan, superstar, singer, songwriter, Megan Traynor. He was on there too. And he said,
Starting point is 00:20:28 you guys are a bunch of weirdos. Yeah. Okay. Because she talked about how they absolutely have, you know, gone number one multiple times together. But they have only gone number two a couple of times together.
Starting point is 00:20:51 I think she said in the podcast, why don't you date me? I believe she said that they've only done it twice. So, I don't know that I'm up for that. I want to be clear about that.
Starting point is 00:21:11 I don't know that I'm up for that. Because that's my time. That's my time. Oh, geez. What did I say? Chris Corby, what did I say? I'm just wondering, are they like side by side
Starting point is 00:21:26 so you can hold hands? Are the twins facing each other? How is this laid out? It doesn't say, but I'm guessing they're side by side. So do you hold hands then when you're doing? Well, yeah, she was saying that they got into this because they were in the middle of the night and they want to hold the baby.
Starting point is 00:21:44 So it's like, here you take the kid, so they're able to go to the bathroom together and toss the kid back and forth. What a good time for the kid, huh? Then I'm a crib? I guess not. No, I guess not. I guess not
Starting point is 00:21:58 Yeah, I was just Say no to that I'm okay with the two toilets I love that idea I do I love that I love the idea of the two You know the badees and the walk-in showers And the urinals
Starting point is 00:22:13 Oh you gotta have a urinal If you're gonna build the home Put in the urinal But Side by side where you can hold hands I'm gonna say no I'm gonna say no baby For those of you listening live today, the 13th of October 2021,
Starting point is 00:22:32 you are now going to be able on your Twitter accounts, my Twitter account is at Jeffrey JFR. You are now going to be able to, well, I'll say what Twitter calls it. They say there's a new level of control when it comes to managing followers. So you're going to be able to remove followers manually without blocking them. Why would you want to do that?
Starting point is 00:23:05 I don't understand. The point of being, see what they're trying to make it so that it's not all about the base. Oh wait, was that I make a train here again? It's not all about the likes and the retweets and the followers.
Starting point is 00:23:23 Yes, it is. That's the point of it. Why do you think we have, it went viral? Every platform has it. It's insane. The point of having a platform is to have followers.
Starting point is 00:23:37 So why do you want, blocking them? Maybe I understand. I kind of like, I like muting them. You know, you know, you have the call,
Starting point is 00:23:46 you can mute them. I don't do that. I want to, I don't care. I want to see. I don't care. I really don't. I just,
Starting point is 00:23:53 you know, I've, there's plenty of hate stuff. There's plenty of other stuff. adult stuff that comes through. Sure, I delete it when it's done. Absolutely. You can't.
Starting point is 00:24:07 Man, that's why I'd want to stop a, get rid of a follower when there's followers are sending me stuff because you can't tag people in tweets if you're not a follower of them. Wait, what? Yes, you can. I don't understand. That doesn't make, I don't get why that's a thing,
Starting point is 00:24:25 but now anyone can trim on. unwanted followers by going to their profile, clicking followers, then clicking that three dot icon and selecting remove follower. What it doesn't say, though, is if I remove you, are you able to come back and follow me again? So if I remove you and I go, hey, I thought I was following that guy. And then I go back to follow him. does it say, Jeffrey, JFR removed you. He doesn't want you as a follower, loser,
Starting point is 00:25:04 or am I able to follow that person again? And then I have to keep going back and, anyway, I thought I already told you, I didn't want to follow you. I have to keep on my followers like that. That would make me mad. I want at least to like a 30-day window. Oh, if I delete you,
Starting point is 00:25:24 I don't want you to be able to follow me. for at least 30 days. So if I go back in and follow Jeffrey JFR, and that guy, he pisses me off. If I go back in and he's dumped me, I want to be able to just not be able to have it happen for 30 days. Just, why can't I follow him? That bastard dropped me.
Starting point is 00:25:51 I mean, you'd know right then, right? So, again, I can't figure out why you'd want. want to do this. I really can't. It doesn't make any sense to me. Why someone would want to do it. If you, if you know a reason why, email me. Chewing the fat at the blaze.com. Because I, okay, so according to this, some users resorted to a workaround called a soft block, which entailed blocking an abusive user, which removed that. person from the list of followers, then unblocking them according to TechCrunch. I mean, abusive followers.
Starting point is 00:26:41 If you get that butt hurt from a tweet or an Instagram post, or a TikTok post, or a Facebook post, or a parlor post, or a gab post, or a gab post, or whatever little social media account you're on, you need to get over it. That's seriously, you're the one with the problem. I don't understand. I see my daughter. Start and my wife too now that I think about it.
Starting point is 00:27:25 They start to get butt hurt. And I'm like, stop. Stop. A, you're barking up the wrong. tree over here if you want me to start feeling bad because i don't okay here's what you do here and i'll even demonstrate for you here on chewing the fat i'll demonstrate what you do all right you've got your handheld device in your hand like you're like it's supposed to be held and you read something that you go i can't believe that now do you respond do you do you do you

Procurre you, these formats, standard, and mini, regrouped for a better quality of price. On link on Cifora.ca or in magazine. Okay, so our girl, Demi Lovado, told Australia's pedestrian TV that she believes the term aliens
Starting point is 00:29:17 is a derogatory one. I think that we have to stop calling them aliens because aliens is a derogatory term for anything. Now, was she talking about the Haitians coming across the border? Was she talking about the actual Mexicans
Starting point is 00:29:37 coming across the border? The actual Guatemalans coming across the border? Well, kind of. But she was specifically talking about extraterrestrials. We can't call them aliens anymore. It always connotes,
Starting point is 00:29:55 this is Demi talking now, it always connotes foreignness which is, well, alienating. So I think Demi may be microdosing again. Maybe she's up the dosage on the microdosing, but she's of course
Starting point is 00:30:12 promoting her new alien show on Peacock called unidentified. So good for her. And congratulations, Demi. Go ahead and up the dosage and we won't call extraterrestrials aliens anymore.
Starting point is 00:30:32 Congratulations too, by the way, to William Shatner and the rest of the crowd that was on the Blue Origin trip to space. You know, today, It was postponed again until, I don't know, like 9.49 a.m. So it was postponed again because of weather.
Starting point is 00:30:58 So we're not ready for prime time on the space theme park rides. And, you know, but it happened. It did seem, I know that it's approximately a 10-minute ride. But it sure felt shorter than 10 minutes. is am I talking to my wife now? It sure felt shorter than 10 minutes. I'll tell you that. It was they were up and then down and that was it.
Starting point is 00:31:25 I am talking to my wife, I think. Anyway, congratulations. The ride is there. They go up and they float around for a couple of minutes and come back down. And, you know, they pass, they go into space, I guess. They pass the Kegel line or the car. Harmon line or whatever they call it that constitutes it being space and they come back down. So the world is happy and Bezos got his William Shatner going into actuals, but Captain Kirk actually goes into space.
Starting point is 00:32:00 And they took off from Blue Origin launch pad one in West Texas. And then they land out in West Texas again in the middle of the desert. And congratulations anyway. It happened again. Space Ride number two for Blue Origin. Came off without a hitch after being postponed for longer than a day because of weather. Kind of sad, actually. And just as a side note, it appeared to me that it takes, you're in the capsule of Blue Origin on the ground before takeoff longer than,
Starting point is 00:32:46 than 10 minutes. You're on the ground in the capsule after you land back on earth longer than 10 minutes. I mean, you're in the capsule for a long-ass time, but the ride itself is only approximately 10 minutes. We'll see. It looked like it took a little while to get Captain Kirk out of the capsule. I don't know if he got locked in and couldn't get out. I don't know if there was a big mess that he was embarrassed about. We'll find out, I guess. But it took quite a while to get the old
Starting point is 00:33:23 Kerkmeister out of the capsule. And we'll see because, you know, they had Audrey Powers, which was one of the Blue Origin vice presidents. They had Chris Botion from Planet Labs and Glendivry's from metadata went
Starting point is 00:33:39 up as well. So, you know, of course, Jeff was there hugging and congratulating everyone because he wanted to be you know this is his deal he's been fighting Elon for quite a while one more thing about the Blue Origin flight today when Captain Kirk got off the capsule he appeared to have a look of
Starting point is 00:34:04 that was it maybe it was just me maybe it was just me would I do it absolutely and now there's proof positive there's fat guy seating so I'm in so as I'm watching William Shatner I can't stop thinking about William Shatner now I think you know first of all
Starting point is 00:34:24 I know that he's Captain Kirk and we love him and Star Trek is you know all knowing all seeing space travel we love it but William Shatner you know while we love him I don't necessarily think he was that great of an actor right I mean come on now
Starting point is 00:34:43 come on seriously And so I was thinking that his best roles, right? So he was Captain Kirk. That's obviously the role that he's known for. But then he was the host of some boogie show, right? What was the show? Rescue 9-1-1. Yeah, Rescue 9-1-1.
Starting point is 00:35:02 He was the voice of that or something, right? He hosted it. Yeah, okay. Sorry I missed that. But then, of course, T.J. Hooker. T.J. Hooker, that was it, baby. that was a fantastic show plus that introduced america to heather locklear i mean come on now and t j at that time a t j hooker was the guy and he would throw his nightstick and people
Starting point is 00:35:28 be running away and he would throw the nightstick and trip them i love that move that was awesome but that had to be in that that was that show was what early 80s for him so i got so was the same i got to look up t j hooker no not that hooker T.J. Hooker. Sertya just going a little crazy. They're putting the words like Hooker in there. Oh, yeah. Heather Locklear on T.J. Hooker.
Starting point is 00:35:58 All right. So, what was the, I mean, that was five years, five seasons of T.J. Hooker? Holy cow. From 1982? Wow. What was the theme? Hold on, another 80s. This is 80.
Starting point is 00:36:12 This is the 70s, though. Oh. Oh yeah, come on. Cop cars rolling out. Jumping across buildings. Oh, he looks great there too. T.J. Hooker. Oh, riding on the cars.
Starting point is 00:36:34 That's right. He would jump on the cars. Awesome. Oh, he's jumping across the car. Awesome stuff. Oh, yeah, who's that? Adrian Zimede. He was the, yeah, he was the hot-looking young cop.
Starting point is 00:36:53 Heather Locklear. Yeah, there's not a lot of police officers that are Heather Locklear. I mean, I think we can all agree on that. All right, that's enough of William Shatner. I just, you know, for $200 to $250,000 to $250,000 to ride on Blue Origin, it does seem a little overpriced. Maybe it's just me again. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:37:22 if I had the extra 250,000 yeah I guess yeah, all right, let's go but I mean if Bezos calls and says hey Jeff we want to promote fat people going on our theme ride can you come and do it for us all right I'm in
Starting point is 00:37:43 do you have an elevator to go up to the capsule because I'm not climbing all those stairs bro that's not happening we need to I mean, we need to put an elevator in. You have enough money to put an elevator in to get us up to the capsule, okay? We don't need to climb all those stairs. But other than that, I'm there for you, Jeff. No problem.
Starting point is 00:38:01 But to actually scrimp and save to go on the theme park ride of the Blue Origin? Or the Virgin Galactic, really. I mean, at least Elon is putting people into space and they're orbiting the globe. Right? He's putting just regular Joe's. Well, you know, kind of. orbiting the globe Branson and Bezos
Starting point is 00:38:25 and then you're done and it's over that's the actual sound from this morning Blue Origin from West Texas and then that was it thank you. Thanks for coming Bill we appreciate it

Starting point is 00:39:23 Friday. Ikea. Bring home to life. Okay, so I don't know what made me think about this story, but did you see over the weekend where a twin engine airplane fell in a neighborhood, crashed in a neighborhood and exploded? It was ugly, and people died. It was sad. I know. But there's a 13-second video of the crash, and you see the plane crashing into the neighborhood. It does a nosedive, hits the ground, and it didn't explode right away. All right, so at least two people have passed away from the crash. All right.
Starting point is 00:40:08 And obviously, you know, banged up a little bit of houses in the neighborhood. So apparently the assassinsis slid down the street, clipped its wing on a UPS truck, and then the fuselage, dislodged, and barreled toward homes. And, I mean, it's sad. These people died in the crash. But I think about that all the time. We've talked about it before. I mean, I drive to and from Mercury Studios here,
Starting point is 00:40:39 and I pass one of the largest airports in the country. And land-wise, it is. I mean, it's as big as Manhattan, the island of Manhattan. But anyway, and it's in like eight counties of Texas. I think it is. I think it's an eight county. I think DFW is officially eight, eight counties. Two?
Starting point is 00:40:56 I don't know. It's eight. They don't know what they're talking about. It's got to be like multiple hectares of, of land that DFW is on. But, but I mean, planes are, I see them flying over the interstate all the time. And they got them rowed up landing. I mean, they have two or three landing strips.
Starting point is 00:41:16 They row them up in the air, man. They got them backed up. So, especially some afternoons, you know, the shadow, you're driving along the interstate, and you're perfect as the plane comes over, and the shadow comes over you, and you're like, so, I mean, that's not a little Cessna. Those are a little bit larger. than the Cessna's. So, I mean, what would happen?
Starting point is 00:41:37 It would not be pretty. You can quote me on that. It would not be pretty. Now, there has been a big crash there. That was a long time ago, though. It's been a long time, right? Because they had the, it was right by the big tanks that are along the interstate.
Starting point is 00:41:51 Did anyone, was there anybody on the plane or was it just flying by itself when it crashed? So, I mean, I'm sure we've lost lives on it, right? I don't remember what the crash was or anything. It's obviously I could, I could look it up, but I mean, it has happened before. But it's been a while. So, and I would, you know, what made me think about the crashes, though, is,
Starting point is 00:42:12 remember Pan Am? Pan Am, oh, you know, they're completely out of business now. But they had a few crashes that, you know, put them under. And we got to talk about that too, because Pan Am, as speaking now I'm back to Bezos and Blue Origin again, Pan Am had people reserving spots to fly to the moon. Back in, I don't know, the 70s or 80s. I was just reading a story about that.
Starting point is 00:42:38 We'll talk about that tomorrow on chewing the fat. The pan, you could wear you could register. I don't know. Most of those people probably now are, you know, either gone or William Shatner, you know, in the 90s age group. But I don't know, they didn't have to pay any money. They just had to register. So they weren't taking people's money yet. But they believed that people were going to be flying to the moon.
Starting point is 00:43:02 Ha ha ha ha ha we can't even I mean In today's world And that's it With uh you know Branson and Bezos doing nothing but 10 minutes We can't even do that It's just embarrassing really And Southwest Airlines speaking of airlines
Starting point is 00:43:21 I saw the head the CEO of Southwest Blaming he was saying that there was no sick out This past weekend it was due to weather and they were backed up all weekend and he was saying that you know when airlines get backed up it takes a couple of days to get them back to normal and he said that they were back to normal he blamed he said he's trying to not get people fired but he is going to follow the mandates from the government because he's taking government money and wants to continue taking government money and so that means that all the employees have to be vaccinated he blamed it on
Starting point is 00:44:01 President Biden saying that he wasn't for it, but he was still going to follow it. And he said that he hoped that he could work out either medical or religious exemptions for people who didn't want to get the vaccine. So I'm hoping that they make the exemptions able to get, though, in Southwest. I mean, hopefully you sit down in Southwest to go, I really don't want to get the vaccine. You must have a religious exemption then, right? I mean, I hope that they make it easy, so you just have to sign here
Starting point is 00:44:33 and you have a religious exemption. Because we've done stories where people, you know, the companies claim they have religious exemptions, but it do. It takes, you can't get it. They're not giving it to people. They claim they have it, but they make it almost impossible to get. So, especially when you have a lot of mainstream religions,
Starting point is 00:44:58 backing getting the vaccine. So, okay, which is it? So I'm hoping that, you know, Southwest does that. Otherwise, you know, we're going to be, you're going to be able, I mean, if you work at an airline and you don't want to get vaccinated, I would say, this is just me thinking off the top of my head, which usually works out. Well, by the way.
Starting point is 00:45:31 I would say start a new airline and just call it unvaxed. And just let the people decide. I'm sure you could stay in business. What are you flying today? Thank you for flying unvaxed. Formerly Jeffie Air. Yes, Jeffie Air sold to us because he's a capitalist and wanted to make some money. Those of you flying on unvaxed today will be flying out of
Starting point is 00:45:58 about 30,000 feet. I mean, fly on-vaxed. I want that to happen now. I want that to happen. Will it? Doubtful. Okay, so apparently I've upset Chris Kirby because he's from here, and I should have known
Starting point is 00:46:17 what the flight was that crashed in D of W. And, you know, hundreds of people lost their lives. Well, I mean, I'm sorry that that happen. So go ahead. Give me the details of flight.
Starting point is 00:46:34 Delta Flight 191. Delta Flight 191. Which crashed landed at the FW Airport in 1985 after encountering a microburst. Yeah, we don't want any of the microbursts. We had a microburst today with Blue Origin. Anyway, go ahead. And I, you know what,
Starting point is 00:46:50 speaking, before you talk about it about the crash, I've actually experienced microbursts at DFW. We were coming in, myself, and I were flying in from, I want to say Detroit, but I don't remember what city. And we were coming. It was storming out, and we experienced a big microburst. And the pilot was like, yeah, we're going to go ahead and go back up and swing this thing around to the other end of the airport.
Starting point is 00:47:12 And we're all like, yeah, good idea. Go ahead with the. Well, this flight's probably why they did that. They changed training after it happened. Oh, okay. But so they had a microburst. They initially touched down in the field north of the airport across the highway. from the airport.
Starting point is 00:47:29 Interesting. By the way, those are not fields right now. Not now, no. Those are businesses and homes, but go ahead. The aircraft struck a highway street light and its nose gear touched down on the westbound lane of Highway 114,
Starting point is 00:47:42 skidding across the road at least 200 miles per hour. The aircraft's left engine hit a Toyota SELica driven by 28-year-old William Mayberry, killing him instantly. Yeah, we lost them. You're not living through that. No, not so much. It then continued to skid through
Starting point is 00:47:55 into the airport property and hit a tank of water before coming to a stop. And how many lives did we? What do we have? Well, the one ground fatalities. How many souls did we lose? One guy in the car was killed. That was it.
Starting point is 00:48:13 And then. That's awesome. Well, no, not quite. Oh, boy. There were 136 fatalities, 25 injuries, and 27 people survived the crash. Oh, I would love to talk to one of the survivors. So what were you thinking? No, never mind.
Starting point is 00:48:32 I don't want to talk. though. All right, I know we're up against the clock for today. Thank you for listening to Chewing the Fat. You can always follow me on Twitter at Jeffrey JFR. Facebook and Instagram is Jeff Fisher Radio. You can email me chewing the fat at the blaze.com.

Starting point is 00:49:21 So we lost one. We lost a snow leopard. A snow leopard has passed away having symptoms of COVID-19. They believe that COVID killed the snow leopard. leopard. So Sioux Falls Zoo which is beautiful this time of year.
Starting point is 00:49:41 Sioux Falls Zoo have five remaining big cats experiencing COVID-19 symptoms. Wow. Okay. Are they spreading it to the world? No, you're safe. You're fine. You're
Starting point is 00:49:59 out in the open. It's okay. Don't worry about it. Right? If you're going to any zoo, but specifically, Sioux Falls Zoo, and you say, oh, look, honey, it's the snow leopards. Okay, kids, come on, we're going, we're moving along. I mean, when do you stop going? Right?
Starting point is 00:50:21 Oh, look. Oh, let's go see the elephants. They're so pretty. Okay, kids, we're moving on. Take care. I mean, we might as well look at the giraffes before we go. We have got to get out of the Sioux Falls Zoo, man. Let's fall apart.
Starting point is 00:50:42 So, I mean, animals are starting to go. We're starting to lose them from COVID-19. That's why they were giving them vaccines. And I hope the Sioux Falls, apparently, I think they said that they had given some of the animals. You know, this zoo has not. This zoo has not given any of the animals the vaccine. They're waiting to receive some, and they plan on giving the susceptible animals the vaccine once they get it.
Starting point is 00:51:16 But the zoo is outdoors. It remains open, and people are, you're fine. You should, you know, if you feel sick, you should stay home. But the animals are fine. Okay, they said they're not. sure. They're not sure if an employee or a visitor passed the virus to the animals. Only one staff member
Starting point is 00:51:44 has recently tested positive. Thank you for coming to the Sioux City Zoo. We appreciate everything that you've done for us and we enjoy your day. Incredible. One more animal story before we get out of here today, okay? And I really, this story's been bugging me. I did it this morning on Pat Unleashed, my Chewing
Starting point is 00:52:12 the Fat segment, and you can watch that, but I've got to do it today here on the real chewing the fat. Yeah, you're going to be the Pat Simon. That's not the real chewing the fat. Well, maybe it is. But in Colorado, there's been an elk wandering around
Starting point is 00:52:28 Colorado, and he's had a tire around his neck. He's been, he's had this tire wandering around his neck. And he's been wandering around for two years. And they call it the elusive elk. Yeah, because he doesn't want to get caught by you people, okay? Maybe this time we should have listened to the animals and decided, you know what, let's let's let the elk go with the tire.
Starting point is 00:52:50 But no, we as humans, decided that we wanted to get rid of that tire on this elk. So when they spotted him this weekend, they called the authorities and they tranquilized him. And then they realized, oh, we can't just cut the tire off. of them. It's a steel belted tire. So they couldn't cut through the tire. So they had to cut the antlers off of the elk too. So now the elk who was apparently using the tire for a little elk bling and he had the antlers and he was, you know, that's his way of getting elk business. A little elk love is gone now. And now not only did we take the bling, they had to cut off his antlers too. It is going to be a.
Starting point is 00:53:36 slow business winner for this elk, man. I feel sorry for him. I do. So the next time you see an elk with a tire around his neck and he's got horns on, maybe I'll just let him alone. Just let him alone. I mean, in the story, they talked about how animals, they found different animals like underneath trampolines
Starting point is 00:53:58 and caught in basketball nets and caught in, you know, tennis court nets. I get that. You know, those are accidental. I mean, I doubt that an elk is going to walk around with a trampoline on his head. Maybe, maybe in today's world, who am I to judge? But when you have an elk that's specifically using, you know, tires for bling, and he's got his horns all scruffed up from scraping them on the trees and trying to get a little elk business, how about we let him alone?
Starting point is 00:54:34 All right, just let it be. Again, maybe it's just me. limits.
