Blaze Radio Network.
And now, chewing the fat with Jeff Fisher.
So yesterday we talked about Kanye selling his joint in Wyoming,
and he has it up for sale for, I don't know,
11 million for the ranch and a few million for all the other places
that he has in Cody, Wyoming.
But we know now why that is.
Kim was just awarded the $60 million hidden hills estate
that the couple shared together.
at one point and court documents from the proceedings reveal that negotiations according to the
report were cordial extremely cordial uh-huh okay so we also know that Kanye has now bought a place
on Malibu Beach for 57.3 million dollars which isn't
far from where Kim and the kids live.
So, you know, he's moving closer to the kids and dumping Wyoming and he needs a little
cash.
It needs a little extra spending cash.
So somebody give up the $11 million, please.
I was looking at the Architectural Digest edition from March of last year where they were
showing off Kim and Kanye's minimalist masterpiece in L.A.
I can't.
I want to be a minimal.
but man, that is something I just can't do.
I mean, they talk about the futuristic Belgian monastery.
Okay, really?
Yeah, it's a story of probing and passion,
a testament to the icon-classic mind of the boundary-defying musician
and the fearlessness of the zeitga.
Nice defining reality star and entrepreneur.
Okay.
Can we maybe, I don't know, hang a picture on the wall?
No?
Oh, okay.
Well, welcome.
Welcome to chewing the fat.
I want to be a minimalist so bad.
I want to, but I guess if I really wanted to, I would be, right?
but I am
caught between
really wanting to be a minimalist
and just not being a hoarder.
It's just too much,
too much stuff.
Too much stuff.
One of the things I love having in the house, though,
is a food.
So if you could see and taste this steak
from moinkbox.com,
you would order it.
right now. Or, you know, you'd be here. But for now, I'm seeing it and tasting it. And it is
delicious. Moinkbox.com. The best bacon, the best steak, the best chicken, the best salmon
you'll ever eat. And it's not coming from a grocery store. You're going to find it on the
family farm and you're going to have the salmon that's caught by independent Alaskan fishermen.
Yes.
Moink delivers grass-fed and grass-finished beef and lamb,
pastured pork and chicken, wild-caught Alaskan salmon,
and they deliver it direct to your door.
They're helping family farms become financially independent
outside of big agriculture.
Their animals are raised outdoors, their fish swim wild in the ocean,
and Moink meat is free of antibiotics, hormones, sugar.
and all that other junk you find in the pre-packaged meat aisle.
Sign up for moinkbox.com slash jeffy to get a year of bacon for free
and then pick what meats you want delivered with your first box.
Change what you get each month and you can cancel any time.
One of the favorite, my favorite things is, of course, the product is delicious.
And it's, you know, I mean, you know that the steak I have in front of me right now
is, I mean, it is delicious.
But if you could just be here and I'd share it with you, you know, a bite or two.
But one of the fun parts is when the box comes and you open it up and you're taking the product out and you realize, oh, I've got these things to eat.
Ooh, I've got this bacon to cook.
Ooh, I've got this salmon to eat.
It's just, it's a lot of fun.
You know, maybe that's just me.
I don't know.
I think you'll have just as much fun as I do
opening up that box when it arrives from moinkbox.com.
Moink was founded by an eighth generation farmer
who was featured on Shark Tank.
Host Kevin O'Leary said it's the best bacon he's ever tasted.
Yes, I agree.
And Jamie Sminoff, creator of a ring video doorbell,
has invested in Moink.
They guarantee you'll say,
oink, oink, I'm just so happy
I got moinked. I mean, I just said it
so the guarantee is probably fact.
And here's a question for you. Why do
just four companies control 80%
of the U.S. meat industry?
Because big food
crushes the little guy. You can help change
that with moinkbox.com.
With moink, you get the highest quality meat you've ever
tasted and you support real family
farms. Join the Moink

Oh no.
Oh, no.
The Netflix
Trans Employee Resource Group
are still moving forward
with a planned walkout next week
over the Dave Chappelle Closer.
I'm sorry, The Closer show
on their network, Netflix.
Oh, no. Oh, no.
I mean, the trans lives matter.
Trans rights matter.
and as an organization, Netflix has continually failed
to show deep care in our mission to entertain the world
by repeatedly releasing content that harms the trans community
and continually failing to create content
that represents and uplifts trans content.
We can and must do better.
That's what a leader of the movement wrote.
I don't know that it's Netflix's responsibility
to release content.
or I'm sorry to create and release content
that represents and uplifts the trans community.
I mean, I'm happy that they do.
I don't care if they do or they don't,
but I don't think it's their actual responsibility.
Remember the lady,
what's her face?
Terra Field, she's the one that got it all started.
Well, she was the one that got suspended for intruding,
along with two others, into an executives-only meeting.
And apparently she's now been reinstated.
Oh, now she's been reinstated because I guess they found that there was no ill intent in her
attendance.
Yeah, she burst into a meeting where she didn't belong.
Okay, I mean, you can justify it any way you want, but you still didn't belong there.
Now, according to Tara, she's going to take a few days off.
She needs to decompress.
and try to figure out where she's at.
At the very least, I feel vindicated.
Do you?
Do you, Tara?
Okay.
I mean, Ted Serendos has issued,
he sent out an email that said,
you should be aware that some talent may join third parties
and asking us to remove the show in the coming days,
which we are not going to do.
That's an important part of our content offering.
Yeah, because we've spent millions of dollars
and the show is bringing in millions of viewers.
So, and your fight, I don't know if you realize this,
Terra, but your fight to bring it down
is actually a great promotion for the show.
It's drawing people to the show.
And more people are realizing that your fight is ridiculous.
even your transgender comedian
Flame Monroe
said all of this
what you can say and what you cannot say
is a ridiculous
I absolutely do not think that the special
should be taken down off Netflix
so you're losing some of your allies
and Chappelle
one of his trans comedian friends
Daphne Dorman
who passed away
who
he's being back by their family
saying that he's an LGBT
ally and if you watch the special
you'll realize that
he is
so I mean good luck
God bless and darn the luck
I don't know how many people
are a part
of the walkout
but I know that
it's
part of the
Netflix
trans group.
I'm sorry, it's the Netflix
Trans Employee Resource Group.
I'm not sure how many
they have.
You know, make your statement.
Go ahead. Make your statement.
Do your walkout.
But
good luck. God bless.
I was looking at the Forbes
Best Workplace list.
They just released their
world's best employers list.
Netflix is 112th
on their list from the United States.
Their list has 750
workplaces around the world.
So a research company,
Statista, compiled the annual list of
world's best employers.
They wanted to determine the rankings.
So they surveyed
150,000 full-time and part-time workers from 58 countries working for multinational companies
and institutions. Survey participants were asked to rate their willingness to recommend their
own employers to friends and family. They were also asked to evaluate other employers in their
respective industries that stood out positively or negatively. There are 750 on the list.
The bottom 10, only one, is from the United States, and that's near bottom, 749, titled Nordson,
engineering and manufacturing, that's 749th, the 750th, bottom of the list,
Bloor Group, Transportation and Logistics out of France.
And then you have companies, the bottom 10 from 740 are from Japan, France, Japan, United Kingdom, Austria, Poland, India, Canada, Switzerland,
and their engineering and manufacturing.
A group from India, the Tata group,
is just under the heading of conglomerate.
Oh, okay.
No problem.
And one from the United Kingdom was the Coca-Cola European partners.
Food soft beverages, alcohol, and tobacco.
Okay.
We have another food, soft beverages, alcohol, and tobacco
from Japan at 742.
so. A couple at the bottom.
And the last four,
the Canada, Switzerland, United States, and France
were all engineering and manufacturing.
The Power Corp of Canada,
the Liberia Group of Switzerland,
Nordsen, as I said, from the United States,
and the Belor Group from France.
I don't remember if anyone
called me to ask
about the Blaze,
but I didn't, you know, they're not on the list.
So I guess we are not a multinational company or institution.
You certainly know them all.
That is for sure.
I mean, the top 20 are companies that we all are aware of.
The Delta Airlines from the United States,
desault systems, aerospace and defense from France.
Dr. Otecker, food in Germany.
I love the Dr. Otecker.
brand. Airbus, aerospace and defense from the Netherlands. Southwest Airlines, number 16,
transportation and logistics, obviously, from the United States. Seamins. Simmons. I think that's
how you pronounce that right. I better learn. I better make sure I pronounce that right. Because I see
their buildings all over with traveling, and I always, you know, think to myself, I wonder how you
pronounce that exactly. Siemens. Seamins. That's what I thought. That's what I said.
Thank you. You don't have to repeat it to me. I got it the first time. Seamins.
Siemens. All right. Now you're just rubbing it in. Fourteenth is Adidas.
Obviously, Germany is the home for Adidas. Cisco systems here in the U.S.
Semiconductors, electronics, electrical engineering, technology hardware, and equipment.
Coca-Cola, number 12 on the list. Food, soft beverages, alcohol, and tobacco, of course.
Costco, wholesale, retail,
wholesale number 11th on the west.
Wow.
That's a big number for them.
BMW Group out of Germany.
Adobe.
Wow.
IT Internet Software Services.
They're number nine.
Hawaii.
Telecommunication services cable supplier out of China.
Uh-huh.
Dell Technologies out of the United States.
Wow.
Huge.
Number seven.
Alphabet.
Google.
IT.
They're number six.
Apple number five, Amazon number four,
Microsoft, wow, the top companies,
Dell are the top seven, well, the top eight,
well, the top nine, the top nine.
We'll throw Adobe in there, Adobe, Hawaii, Dell, Alphabet,
Apple, Amazon, Microsoft, IBM,
and the number one is Samsung Electronics.
Wow, really, really huge.
And the top seven, I mean,
What do you got?
Out of the top 10, only three, so seven out of the top 10 are United States companies based in the U.S.
That shouldn't be a surprise, really.
But I wonder if Amazon is, I wonder if they asked this before we found out that I know yesterday there was a big breaking report that Amazon copied products sold by other companies and rigged search results to boost its own brands.
Well, I think we already knew that they were.
doing that?
Yeah.
And they would boost their search.
People were pissed that they would boost if you were looking for a product that it
would the first one, if you search for a product, you search for, you know, scissors.
And the first pair of scissors that would come up in your search would be an Amazon scissors.
And then it would, then you'd go down the list.
And Walmart, I believe.
And I'm not throwing Walmart under the bus.
although I'm not sure where Walmart stands on the big list.
I mean, we're looking at Home Depot at 22, Target, 25,
IKEA, 21, Nordstrom, 41, Nike, 42.
But I'm not seeing, oh, Facebook, too, Facebook 49th.
Wow.
But I'm not seeing Walmart.
I'm seeing Walt Disney at 100.
I see Walgreens at 236, but I don't see any Walmart on this list of world's best employers.
I'm pretty sure Walmart is a multinational company and or institution.
So, I mean, we couldn't get a hold to anybody at Walmart,
at one of the largest companies in the world.
Okay.
What's up with that?
I want an investigation.
I want to know why Walmart was not on this list.
Because it matters to me.
Not really, but I'd just like to know.
All right, let's go to the break room.
I need something cold to drink desperately.
Oh.
So good.
So I know we have Major League Baseball playoffs going on.
Now we have Boston taking out.
on Houston for the American League to go to the World Series.
And then we have Los Angeles and San Francisco squaring off in the winter.
They're heading into game five.
And the winner of that series plays Atlanta to see who goes into the World Series.
But I was liking that, I mean, I was sad Boston just beat the raise to go into the
ALCS, but I was reading a story about Mark Wahlberg, who was talking about the movie that he did with Jack Nicholson called The Departed.
And there was an interview and he was talking about it.
And they were talking about a remake of the film in Hong Kong.
And he was interviewing about the original with Jack Nicholson.
And Wahlberg was like, yeah, they wanted Jack Nicholson in the movie to wear a Boston Red Sox hat.
and he wouldn't do it.
And he said, yeah, no, I'm not wearing a Boston Red Sox hat.
And the line from Walberg was, well, Jack can do whatever Jack wants.
Yeah, you think?
No kidding.
That was a long time ago, too.
I mean, it feels like a long time ago.
It was 15 years ago.
October 6th.
I mean, we had the anniversary.
And that's one of the things that that's why Walberg was being interviewed because it was the
anniversary. But anyway, I just love the fact that Jack was like, I'm not wearing a Boston
Red Sox hat. No. And I'm sure that people in Boston are like, yeah, that's fine. Jack doesn't
have to wear a Boston Red Sox hat. He's going to Laker Games and sitting home eating fries
and hamburgers. Okay? Just leave the man alone. All right? He's, I think Jack is 84 now. Boy,
he would be a great interview. I should reach out and see if I could get Jack on chewing the fat.
That would be awesome.
I'm going to do that this week.
Hey, be sure to follow me on my social media accounts.
You have Twitter at Jeffrey JFR, Instagram, and Facebook Jeff Fisher Radio.
And you can email me at Chewing the Fat at theblaze.com for anything that you'd like to comment on or talk about.
And you can always leave a message on the fat line 214-7359356.
And I'll get to those messages once in a while.
One thing that you may or may not see on my Instagram is this mother who was taking a shower
and she gave her phone to her toddler who to play some game while she took a shower.
And then apparently the little kid was knocking on the door asking to say,
hey, something is wrong.
Can you fix it?
And she realized that the kid was streaming her live, you know, in the shower.
on Instagram.
So, good dude.
I mean, you may or may not see that.
I don't know if that's a plus or a minus to follow me on Instagram,
but I'm just saying you may or may not, you know,
see that happening on Instagram if you were to follow Jeff Fisher Radio on Instagram.
Apparently there's a feature called guided access,
which you can restrict an iPhone to a single app,
which a lot of parents were,
apparently there's a lot of parents that use the old guided access
when they give their phone to their toddlers
to play a game of their phone.
That's interesting.
That's interesting.
You know, back in the day,
before we had indoor plumbing and you had to run outside
and you had a little kid,
maybe you'd put the kid in a seat and, you know,
just kind of, so I remember sitting,
sitting the kids in their in their car seat up on the counter while you did dishes
and while you did clean stuff and did this so that they were there with you an amazing thing
that they'd be a part of it when you were doing things instead of just giving them a phone
and making them you know go away wow I mean just set them in front of the TV right
and nowadays it's just hand them the phone and tell them to zip it and
Make sure you use the guided access so they don't, you know, go live on Instagram while you're in the shower.
So not that I follow Heinz on their social media accounts.
I mean, I do.
I love the fact that they just started promoting their, if you have Heinz, you have a costume.
As you know, if you're an avid listener to chewing the fat, you know I'm a Heinz ketchup police officer.
I have a badge, and I make sure that restaurants and places of business,
who are saying that they use Heinz are actually using Heinz.
Now, if I go into an establishment and they don't have Heinz,
I usually don't order the food or I cancel my order and move on
and find another restaurant.
But there are restaurants in the past who use Heinz bottles,
but don't use Heinz ketchup.
They fill it with a less than iconic ketchup fill
that they buy and pretend that it's Heinz and it's not.
And I, man, if I see that happening,
I pull out my badge and I shut the place down immediately.
I will not have that.
But that's a law.
I mean, that's just clearly a law-breaking opportunity.
But Heinz believes that if you have ketchup,
you have a costume.
And they have on their website,
tomato blood,
the costume kit, and they have examples of costumes.
And they also have a mask,
a Heinz ketchup mask.
which, you know, looks like you've got ketchup all over your face and stuff.
And that might be a cute little costume to wear not actually wear the mask on.
And I just, I love the idea that just something to remember,
if you have Heinz ketchup in your home, you have a costume for Halloween.
I'm not sure what the biggest outfit is going to be this year for Halloween.
We talked a little bit about it being the Squid Game outfits from Netflix,
although that may not be as scary.
That might actually be fashion.
So I guess this year the scariest outfits would be what?
An outfit that says unvaccinated or an outfit that looks like Dave Chappelle or an outfit that looks like John Gruden.
Either one of those outfits, Chappelle or Gruden will get you, you know, it'd be a great costume.
It's a scary.
Those people are making people upset.
I mean, holy cow.
The Chappelle thing, I'm over.
John Gruden thing doesn't end.
They're taking him off the video game.
I mean, the guy can't have a livelihood.
They got him off his job.
They took him off the Ring of Honor in Tampa.
And now EA Sports is saying, yeah, we're going to remove him from the Madden NFL 22 video game too.
He's going to be, we can't be having part of that.
So, I mean, is the man going to be able to work and make some money?
I don't know.
I don't know.
Does he go to college?
I mean, he's an NFL coach.
There's a big difference.
And you can, there's only been a few coaches that go to the NFL from college.
I mean, obviously, all of them did.
But a few coaches have really succeeded.
And it's a big difference, right?
If you're a big coach in college, that doesn't necessarily mean you're going to succeed in the NFL.
Just ask Urban Meyer.
Just ask Mr. Alabama, Nick Sabin.
So, I mean, it's a big difference.
So I don't know, does Gruden go to college?
Is there a college that would give him a job?
I don't know.
I think he just does a, you know,
will YouTube let him have a YouTube page?
I don't know.
Anyway, I would say if John Gruden,
and I'm just speaking for me,
if he wants to come and work for chewing the fat
and do a sports show
under the chewing the fat heading,
I'm all for it.
Man, I want that to happen.
Yes, I want that to happen.
Might be tough getting a sponsor, but I don't think so.
I think there will be companies that will be lining up for a sponsor.
I mean, come on now.
I see where Raiders quarterback Derek Carr says he and this, holy cow,
this would open up a can of worms.
I don't think they want to open.
And this is what Goodell gets.
This is what he gets.
He got butt hurt.
When he saw his name in one of those, one or two of those emails,
when he was investigating the Washington football team, the Redskins.
And so he got butt hurt.
And he said, well, we're going to investigate those other 650,000 emails.
John Gruden's got to go.
He said something bad about someone, especially me.
And so now Gruden's gone.
He got what he wanted.
But now Derek Carr said, you know, we just should open up everybody's private emails and texts.
he thinks people would start sweating a little bit.
Yeah, you think?
And he says, hopefully not too many.
But maybe that's what they should do for all the coaches and GMs and owners from now on.
Open up.
Open up everything.
I, you know what?
I don't disagree.
If we're going to bring down the house, damn it, let's bring down the house.
And sadly, Carl Nasson, you know, the first active NFL player to come out as,
gay who was playing
under John Gruden.
He's requested a day
and he needs a personal day.
He's got a process.
He's got a process the email sent by
former coach Gruden, which
he used the F word.
It was over 10 years ago in a private
conversation, but Carl needs a
personal day. Do you,
Carl? Do you?
So yesterday, I
talked about, well, William Shatner
going into space and I've got some
audio of William in space on the Blue Origin flight yesterday.
And it's fascinating audio that they have.
I hope it's true.
I hope it's real.
It looks real.
I hope it's real.
You make the call.
But yesterday I also talked about,
I was remembering a Pan Am story about how they were reserving
flights to the moon back in the 80s.
This story dated February 10th,
1985 from the Los Angeles Times,
Robert E. Delos,
now that the airlines have been deregulated,
they may fly just about anywhere they wish,
and Pan American World Airways
is more than ever convinced
that it will one day offer regularly
scheduled flights on a new route that is out of this world.
The airline has a list of 90,0002 persons who hold reservations for the flights to the moon.
Pan Am insists its moon flight reservations program established in 1968 is not a publicity stunt.
Officials point to the airline's involvement in a host of space-related activity.
which make it a natural
to fly the first
tourists to the moon.
For 30 years or more,
we have been involved
as a contractor at Cape Kennedy,
says the Pan Am spokesman.
We provide telemetry support,
all kinds of engineering support,
communication support. We even parked the Boeing
747, which brings back
the space shuttle to the Cape.
Flying people to the moon would be
normal commercial endeavor.
then let's make it happen.
Why are we not doing that?
Okay?
Now in the article,
it says,
you know,
they may not happen next year.
They might not happen in five years,
but they will happen.
Will they?
Because it,
I don't look like it.
Okay?
I know it didn't happen
in the following year
and it hasn't happened
in the following five years.
So,
I mean, it's been, what, 50 years?
Something like that.
Yeah, whatever.
Ah, whatever.
Don't start bogging me down with facts.
We're going to fly down the, we're going to fly to the moon.
Right, of course.
So the agency said they will train citizen passengers for a hundred hours and a cost of about
$100,000 each.
According to NASA's public affairs officer, he says that the physical qualifications are
minimal and that there are no rigors involved for the observer passengers.
Okay.
They're talking about, I mean, it's just incredible.
NASA says they do not plan to carry droves of private citizens into space.
They're leading that to the private industry.
Yes, they have.
Finally, and we've got that going for us.
some of those who hold reservations to the moon feel that the trip will help in their work.
All right.
Lawrence G. Dishman, a research scientist at Wayne State University of Detroit,
who specializes in quasi-stellar radio sources,
is a super place to study, he said.
All of the moon flights have landed on the backside of the moon.
That's away from all the noises emitted from the earth.
A Beverly Hills producer, George Shapiro, hopes one day to make a movie on the moon.
But on his first trip, he says, he just wants to go scout locations.
And then, you know, we'll go back to film that movie.
William J. Kelly, a retired Air Force colonel, who now operates a lighting fixture business in Palm Desert,
is in it for the adventure, pure and simple.
He holds one of the lowest numbers, 562, on the Pan Am list.
and his wife, Lucille, holds the number 563.
Although he's 65, and this was in 1985,
Kelly still has lunar ambitions
and made his reservations because it seemed like a heck of a place to go
where no tourist has been.
If they beat the undertaker to the front door, I'll make it.
Well, we still aren't making these flights,
and Pan Am doesn't even exist.
anymore. So
there's that. And you
got to do 10 days of training
for 100 grand. All you got to do
is pay 250,000
and you're riding on
you're either riding
on Branson's
Virgin Galactic or
Bezos's
Blue Origin. SpaceX, I guess
you can count that in there, but SpaceX is doing
more than these two. SpaceX
isn't really making a theme park rides.
They're making more of a hay
We're going to move to another planet ride,
and we want you to be able to come along for the ride,
where Bezos and Branson are just building a theme park to go into space,
which really isn't space, but it's kind of space.
And the audio that I found of the group yesterday that was up in the Blue Origin capsule,
and of course one was William Shatner,
This audio is when they were in space.
And it looks real.
It looks and sounds real to me.
Okay?
That's all I'm saying.
It looks and sounds real to me.
You go ahead and tell me what you think.
God.
Weightlessness.
Oh, Jesus.
Carmeline.
No description can equal this weightlessness.
This is nuts!
Oh, my God.
This is us?
Oh, wow, I'm telling you.
Holy hell.
Oh, my goodness me.
Oh, wow.
I can't believe this.
now I will say you decide it sounds real it looked real I just know that when I and others I'm assuming have felt the way I was being described I wasn't in space so you decide what was going on there but
According to the video and audio, that's when they...
You heard them, Carmen Line.
They were, you know, in the technical space.
So, oh, my.
It's the matcha or the three ensemble
Cadoffora of the fact that I've been to denichie
who my energize so much.
It's the ensemble.
The form of standard and mini-regrouped.
Call-O-Bemn.
And the embellage, too beau,
who is practically pre-to-donned.
And I know that I'd love these offriars,
but I guard the Summer Fridays
and Rare Beauty by...
Selena Gomez.
I'm just
I'm sure.

All right,
so we know
that the
Federal Advisory
Panel
took no
stance on
the decision
of whether
to recommend
booster
shot of
Moderna COVID-19
vaccine
says two
doses are
sufficient
to
against severe illness and death.
The decision on booster shots for the Johnson and Johnson COVID-19 vaccine may be in doubt.
After the data submitted by the company involved a relatively low number of participants,
just over 8,000 in their trial analysis, almost 77% of Americans over the age of 12 have received at least.
one vaccine dose.
Roughly
103 million people
have received the
Pfizer-Biointech vaccine.
69 million people
have received a shot
from Moderna
and 15 million
have received the Johnson
and Johnson shot.
Okay.
Across the Atlantic,
British officials have
apologized for
the early
pandemic response. It was one of the worst public health failures in the country's history.
Really? Okay. If that's the way you feel. You know, it's good that we have a hundred million dollars
in border wall materials just rusting away in Texas. That's what the report said. The $100 million
worth of taxpayer paid border wall materials, we're just leaving them to waste. Eh,
Don't worry about it.
Since, what's his face?
The president.
It's his name again?
Oh, yeah, Biden.
Since he ended all the construction in January when he took office,
eh, don't worry about it.
Just let it sit there and rot and rust in Texas.
It's all right, fine.
So I guess only about 14 miles of the wall was built
before Donald Trump left office.
I don't know.
I guess that's new wall.
I guess we rebuilt a bunch of other parts of the wall.
But we, according to drone footage, they have about 10,000 steel panels,
which was enough to build about 100 miles of the wall, just rusting away.
So that's good.
We just let that taxpayer money rust.
We're spending way more than that anyway.
And I guess the administration is and or was.
I'm not sure if it's stopped now, paying about $5 million a day for border conscience.
contracts that have been put on hold.
Okay.
So we're just paying the contractors to sit there and twiddle their thumbs.
That's good.
That's good.
Because we also have a report that a massive caravan plans to depart for the U.S.
coming up here in a few days.
This is according to a report that organizers are referring to the group as the caravanamadre.
and why I said it like that.
It's caravada mande.
But they're the mother caravan.
Man, I can't wait for that.
Tens of thousands of Haitians and Central American migrants are forming the mother of all caravans.
Yay!
Come on.
Come on down or up or in.
Come on.
And that's great.
And more good news is that the U.S. is opening the Mexico and Canada borders to vaccinated travelers.
I thought, I mean, if you're not vaccinated, you don't have to go through the border patrol.
It's just come across where there's no wall.
That's just dumb.
But right now, I guess, officially, we're going to go ahead and open up the Mexico and Canadian borders just to vaccinated travelers.
So that's good.
and this administration, the guy, what's his face again, the President Biden, he, the administration, I don't know that he announces anything, announced that the U.S. immigration authorities will no longer carry out mass arrests of illegals at work sites.
Oh, well, that's good.
The law enforcement, they claim those efforts should focus on holding exploitative.
employers accountable.
Yes.
Yes. Yes. Yes.
That's what should happen.
We shouldn't. I mean, look,
we just said we needed workers.
People won't work.
So maybe if we let in the illegals,
they'll all work.
And we're opening up ports 24-7.
We're opening up warehouses 24-7.
We don't have the workers.
We don't know who's going to do the jobs.
We don't know who's going to deliver the goods
and services, but we're going to open them up anyway.
Maybe these people will be the workers.
I don't know the answer to that.
And I heard yesterday, look, nobody supports the truckers more than this show, chewing the fat.
But I did hear some stories yesterday after they announced that, you know, the Los Angeles
and the Long Beach ports were going to go 24-7 and they weren't 24-7.
They were just, I guess, Monday through Friday, 8 to 5.
or whatever their hours were.
So now they're going to go 24-7
and everything is going to be okay.
But I was under the impression
that there are some rules and regulations
and I know this is going to come as a surprise.
There's all kinds of rules and regulations in California
on the truckers,
which actually slows down the delivery process.
So even if they're open 24-7,
there's going to be an issue with the truckers
that they're allowing into the ports
to pick up,
the containers and there's going to be an issue.
I don't know who's driving them.
Who's driving them?
And the truckers have all kinds of rules and regulations
of how long they can drive.
And I mean, I don't know.
We're just letting those go.
Just letting those regulations go.
Love to talk to you.
Email me, chewing the fat at the blaze.com.
When you're locked down at the port or in the, you know,
in a warehouse parking lot waiting to have your load
dropped off, then email me.
chewing the fat at the blaze.com and let me know some of those rules and regulations and how you're
getting around them. I mean, how you're following them. I don't expect you to go around them.
That would just be wrong. And I'll tell you what, I'm really sick of hearing how much
prices are going up for goods and services. I'm really sick of that. How about we start taking
care of America first? Oh my gosh. I'm so sorry. I don't know. I'll tell you. Something's going to give.
something's going to give real soon.
And I don't know what it is.
I don't know what it's going to happen.
I just know it's got to give.
I mean, I hear there's new headlines every day
that talk about how prices are surging,
going through the roof.
They're talking about households
are expecting to see their heating bills jump
as much as 54% compared to last winter.
That makes me unhappy.
That makes me unhappy.
It makes me want to say,
We're going to be wrapping up in blankets.
I guess that's what we want.
We don't want to be warm.
We'll just wrap up in blankets and huddle up in the corner
and live in the United States of America
that isn't the United States of America that anyone remembers.
And that's just the way it is.
So, all right, I'll get over it then.
Stop talking to you about it.
I'll tell you a joke, okay?
I saw a dog joke.
on the socials
and I'll share it with you right now
okay you could be either mad or laugh
or just go with you but just know it's just a joke
okay so a Rottweiler
a Doberman and a German shepherd
are having a beer and a bar
the Roddy says
God said the other day
I was the most beautiful and strongest dog
who ever walked the earth
the Doberman shrugged
and said last night God came
to me in a dream and said I was his
best work ever. The German Shepherd turned around with a horrified expression and said,
I said what?
