Starting point is 00:00:00 Is it the matcha or am I this energized from scoring three Sephora holiday gift sets? Definitely the sets. Full size and minis bundled together? What a steal. And that packaging? So cute. It practically wraps itself. And I know I should be giving them away, but I'm keeping the Summer Fridays and Rare Beauty by Selena Gomez. I don't blame you. The best holiday beauty sets are only at Sephora. Gift sets from Summer Fridays, Rare Beauty, Way and more are going fast.
Starting point is 00:00:24 Get full-sized favorites and must-have minis bundled for more value. Shop before they're gone. In store online at Sephora.com. Blaze Radio Network And now, chewing the fat with Jeff Fisher Welcome to it. How in the world are you? Good to see you. You look fantastic.
Starting point is 00:00:40 Don't let anybody tell you different. Don't do it. I mean, you may have gotten up today, and when you were walking up the door, you took a quick peek at the full-length mirror there by the doorway, and you thought, ooh, man, I don't know if I should wear this. You should have, because it looks great on you.
Starting point is 00:01:00 So at times, you run across stories that you go, that is genius. And it's so genius that it's going to go away soon. All right. I mean, you want to talk about it and you're happy about talking about it. But really, it's going to go away because now the plan is spoiled. So a man named Dylan in California had a big student loan debts. He was married and he wanted to purchase. house and this is California so who so he wants to you know save a little money and he thinks to
Starting point is 00:01:36 himself Dylan says I I need to save a little money on some food he was talking to one of his co-workers and the co-worker is saying that that that that she I think it was spent like 1500 a month on takeout food to eat and he was like I'm not having none of that first of all I mean he couldn't afford it and if you could you're not saving any money to pay any bills, right? No, seriously, you're not. Believe me, you're not. So he knows about this deal at six flags, where you pay $150 for the year-round access to six
Starting point is 00:02:15 flags. Now, that deal includes parking and two meals a day. So he was like, hey, why don't I just get that? And I can eat twice a day at Six Flags. Genius. $150. For a year. I mean, Six Flags is going to be pulling that.
Starting point is 00:02:39 I don't even know if they still have it. Right. But I mean, when it rolls around, they want to renew. Did you want to renew your yearly pass? Yes. So it's the premium season dining pass that Six Flags offers. It allows each visitor to enjoy lunch and dinner items as well as a snack. and unlimited drinks during every visit on any regular operating day.
Starting point is 00:03:07 Awesome. That is awesome. Now the deal, which doesn't include alcoholic beverages, you bastards. How dare they? Now, I can't get drunk either. On the weekends, you're open, I can't use it to get drunk? No. You can't get that, though, apparently for a lot.
Starting point is 00:03:28 another 110 bucks or whatever. So if that gets you to what, 260? It might be worth it. If you're a drinking person, I am not. Shame on you people that drink alcohol. Oh my gosh. I miss drinking. I miss drinking.
Starting point is 00:03:47 Oh, man, there's nothing like an ice cold beer and a cigarette. Oh, man. That's good times. Anyway, so I'm just saying what a genius idea that Dylan had. So, and I mean, heck, that works today. I'm like, if you lived within earshot of six flags, you know, it's not going to be worth your while with gases $10 a gallon. But if you lived in a reasonable distance from six flags and you could get that deal, oh yeah.
Starting point is 00:04:21 Welcome to Chewing the Fat. So it is Fat Pile Friday on Chewing the Fat. you're listening live, it is the 29th of October 2021. Oh, October 29th, my stepdad's birthday. Happy birthday. Richard, I love you. I got an email from Eric. He emailed Chewing the Fat at theblaze.com.
Starting point is 00:04:47 And this email, we've talked about how companies, you know, tend to, what's the word I'm looking for, I'll rip you off with their products. And the other day we talked about Pop-Tarts getting sued. and they're for misleading the customers of what the product is. And I've talked to you before about how Kellogg's, when I was working in the grocery business, how a case is on the pallets, you know, one case would have a box missing
Starting point is 00:05:14 and stacked up over a year. That's a lot of boxes of Frost and Flakes. Kellogg's making a little extra cash that way. Well, I get an email from Eric who points out his Oreo package, which I will post the picture as part of the show promotion later today. So you probably, if you're listening to it, you've already seen it. Anyway, this is his email.
Starting point is 00:05:41 I opened up a brand new pack of double stuffed Oreos and found where they shorted me at least a total of six. If this picture is actually true, and we will put you under oath, Eric. Okay, so you better not be lying to chewing the fat. or me okay I will not have that but back to the email this cannot stand I am no kidding this cannot stand when I sit down with some milk and Oreos and you I mean that's a law right that's another law I mean they would come and arrest Eric if he opened up this package of Oreos and didn't have a glass of milk so I he says he likes to eat the whole
Starting point is 00:06:27 row which I guess that's what is that about 18 Cookies in a row. I'm usually good for a quick sit down as a dozen. And then, you know, then you're ready for more later. But anyway, I digress. So now he has to go to the other row, which, I mean, if you're OCD-driven, that's throwing you all off. On top of which, I will say that this pack of doubled stuff Oreos,
Starting point is 00:06:55 the quality control needs to up a little bit at Nabisco. because it doesn't look like all of them are double stuffed. So there may have been an issue with this batch coming out of Nabisco because they do not look all double stuffed and obviously short of the amount of product that needs to be in this package. That, okay, so six seems to be an awful lot. If I'm Nabisco and I'm trying to make a little extra cash on the side by, you know, shorting a couple of Oreos in a pack in every dozen packages, even every 50.
Starting point is 00:07:37 You know, say, well, how many come in this package? If the 18 are in a row, what's that, 36, 46, 54 cookies? Right? So, is that right? 30, 48, 56, right? 18 times three, 56. Is that right? I'm asking.
Starting point is 00:08:01 Oh, now you're going to make me use the calculator, aren't you? It'd be 54, I think. So I was right the first time. Yeah, 54. You use the calculator. I have the application on my phone for a calculator. Anyway, so let's say every 54th package, you short one or two cookies. And so if you, like me, were to get home and you opened it up, you know,
Starting point is 00:08:29 not going to count it. It's like pulling out trash bags. Not everyone pulls out. Oh, it's got 150 trash bags. Does it? I mean, we just trust that it does. Right. And in the past, they have used that as to, you know, enhance their revenue and short
Starting point is 00:08:48 hours, okay? And that's what Nabisco is doing, if that's the case. But I feel like when you're getting into the half a dozen missing, that's just a That's because Jose wasn't doing his job that day, and he screwed up the package. Quality control was not working that day. That was the end of the line. That's fine.
Starting point is 00:09:14 Box it up. I just feel like that was, that's probably the issue. But Eric, I would get a contact Nabisco right now. They'll send you at least a coupon for a new package of double stuffs, right? I mean, they have to. Or maybe they'll send the old, Hello, OREO police.
Starting point is 00:09:35 We're here to investigate. Oh yeah, they have police. Don't kid yourself. I'm a Heinz police officer. I understand. I'm a Heinz ketchup investigator with a badge. So you know that there are Oreo investigators out there. You know there are.
Starting point is 00:09:52 So I'm with you, Eric. This will not stand. Somebody get Oreo on the line down. Yeah, to be clear, I do not carry a, I don't carry a weapon as a Heinz police officer. That would be dangerous. I would be, you know, there could be some issues with me carrying a weapon. Hello. Ooh, is this haunts on my table?
Starting point is 00:10:18 Yeah, nobody wants that. I mean, I'm willing to do it, I think, maybe. Let me even get one chance, right? I mean, I'm pulling it out. I'm saying, hey, is this hunts? Are you trying to put a different? Yeah, this is when you get shot now that I think about it. All right.
Starting point is 00:10:38 So if you come into a restaurant that's supposed to have Heinz and doesn't and there's actually a Hunt's bottle, now you're just pissed and you're going to write him a fine and say that needs to stop. But if you're the reason that I started becoming a Heinz Kine's ketchup police officer was because restaurants were posing that they had Heinz ketchup and they put foreign substitute in the bottles pretending it's Heinz. Then if I catch you doing that, yeah, you're going down. Just the way it is.
Starting point is 00:11:14 Just the way it is. I had to. I had to. All right. On to business here on chewing the fat. Thank you for the thank you for listening. I see where I was right. Facebook, meta.
Starting point is 00:11:25 That's their name. And so congratulations. Mark had the big meeting yesterday, the big conference, and he announced that they are now meta. And so Facebook is now evolving into the metaverse. Now, you know, the sister apps are still obviously a giant business. And I was right. It was just like, you know, meta is the umbrella company and the, you know,
Starting point is 00:11:50 Facebook and Instagram and whatever else they have. underneath their umbrellas still there. They've got another big one too, right? I've got Instagram. They've got Facebook. Is WhatsApp them too? Yeah. I think WhatsApp is them too.
Starting point is 00:12:04 Yeah. So anyway, so they're just now meta. And when you look at some of the stuff, I didn't realize this either. I mean, I know that we talk about them having 3.5 billion people using Facebook around the globe. But their annual revenue. as like $86 billion a year?
Starting point is 00:12:29 That doesn't seem too bad. It seems like that's not a bad income. A year? That's a tad more than I'm sure. Well, I know it's more than I make. I'm sure it's more than you make. I could be wrong, though. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:12:44 And they're under fire now, you know, for, well, they're making young people feel bad about themselves. That's Facebook's fault. Okay. And he's also said he's warned the employees that they need to, well, the actual memo was preserve your emails since 2016. What I read was delete everything that you've ever sent that has anything to do with this since 2016 because we're about to be investigated. But that's not what it said. I just know that's what I read.
Starting point is 00:13:19 So anyway, the meta plan that he has looked at what he used as an example. They're not there yet at all. Now they have the, you know, the Oculus Quest 2s that are out now. And they have the Rayband glasses with the cameras. And they have the Horizon workrooms where the virtual meeting rooms, which is close to a Jeff Fisher idea years ago. I know. I had the bathroom stall idea,
Starting point is 00:13:55 so it's almost the same thing as the Horizon workplace, workroom place, almost. Remember MySpace 100 years ago. But I thought that, you know, and it's like what Facebook does now your own little thing, but my original thought was that everybody would have their own bathroom stall, and you'd be able to put whatever you wanted in your own stall, and then your friends would come in,
Starting point is 00:14:17 probably not with a great idea and everybody in the same bathroom stall. Anyway, but that's what the horizon workrooms are. People show up virtually and you do business inside these room rooms. Now they're going to make it so that you can doctor up your workroom however you want. And so you'll have your virtual
Starting point is 00:14:36 meetings in your own little workroom. Okay, I mean, I love that. But his, the way, what he promoted was that the workroom is, it's going to be, you know, this virtual world. and everyone will be able to come into it with their own avatar and their own being, and you'd be able to conduct business. And he went on with other screens showing up in the air that he can. I mean, it's awesome.
Starting point is 00:15:02 And if it comes to fruition, I am so ready for it. It'd be really cool. Is it going to happen in 10 years? We'll see. We'll see. And plus another thing. And it's just a side note for me. Zuckerberg is probably not the best face for the company.
Starting point is 00:15:23 I mean, I know it's his company, and he's not going anywhere. And really, it's, you know, you can call it Facebook or meta. It's really, I mean, it's just Zuckerberg. Right. I mean, it's his company. He's not going anywhere. He's got his grips on it. And no matter how much they want to get rid of him, for right now he's going nowhere.
Starting point is 00:15:41 But when he does a promotion like this, probably should have had some. somebody else do it for him. I mean, really was like, dude, nobody likes you. Even when you're making fun of yourself, which he did a few times in the presentation, you're like, yeah, it's not funny. You're a douche. We don't like you. We know you got your ass kick most of your life.
Starting point is 00:16:09 And now you stole your idea. Oh, I mean, you came up with the idea with other people. And then, and now you're, you know, a billionaire. Okay, congratulations. And, you know, we all wish we had your money. And I don't want to be him. I don't want to be him, but, you know, do I want access to his money? Sure.
Starting point is 00:16:37 Sure. I'm fine with that. But anyway, I'm just, it would be really cool if it comes to fruition, no doubt about it. The meta world. Is it going to happen? I don't know. And, you know, get, I don't know who you could get as a spokesman that would be better than Mark Zuckerberg other than anyone else.
Starting point is 00:16:57 I'm not sure who that would be, though. Just pick somebody. Somebody, Mark. I don't care who. Just someone else. No, not Jack. Don't pick him. Nobody likes him either.
Starting point is 00:17:10 Well, you figure it out. You've got enough money to pay people to work for you. I mean, Apple does it? Apple brings in big stars to be their spokespersons and just, oh, we at Apple are really good, okay. Because, like,
Starting point is 00:17:26 Tim Cook is their guy, and he does their little virtual meetings, but he's really, he's another one that's like, eh, all right. We got it. We got it, Tim. Okay, you're in charge of Apple, you're gay, we love you.
Starting point is 00:17:42 Okay, get out of here. We got it. And Zuckerberg, we got it. Okay, you're in charge of Facebook, I'm sorry, META, and you're married, but nobody's really likes you anymore, okay? We never really did, but now we're able to say we don't like you. Let the company, give it up a little bit. Go walk on your island and take care of the climate somewhere else, okay?
Starting point is 00:18:07 All right, but still be a part of it because we want you driving META, okay? We want that to happen. Okay, so it was pointed out to me that. What Facebook should do, and I don't know, Mark, this is just an idea we have here at Chewing the Fat. And I think it's a really good idea. It's pointed out to me from Chris Corby, one of the producers of Chewing the Fat, that the spokesperson should be Wilford Brimley. No, I know he's dead. All right?
Starting point is 00:18:35 They have the resources to pay the Wilford Brimley estate, whatever they need, and they just bring him back as the avatar. and he's the avatar for meta. Awesome. Awesome. That would be tremendous. That might actually work. That might actually work. Wilford Brimley here.
Starting point is 00:18:56 For meta. Sure, you like your Instagram. Sure, you like your WhatsApp. Sure, you like to chat with Grandma on Facebook. But wouldn't you like to do it in a meta meeting room? Huh? I know. you're welcome
Starting point is 00:19:14 all I want is Wilford Brimley to be a spokesperson for chewing the fat now let's it let's go to the break room even if you have diabetes hi Wilford Brimley here you drink Coca-Cola zero sugar
Starting point is 00:19:38 is it is that like I remember I want to make sure yeah it's Coca-Cola zero sugar want to name it correctly so good even if you have diabetes Okay, we are in the break room, and it is Fat Pile Friday. So I want to talk to you about a protest, or it wasn't really a protest. It was more of a march, a knowledge march that went on this past weekend.
Starting point is 00:20:10 And I'm a little disappointed that I didn't realize it was going on. I may have flown to California. I know. They gathered Saturday morning in downtown Los Angeles, and it was a huge march. It was the small dong march to end shaming of tiny dongs. I know, right?
Starting point is 00:20:36 Now, according to this article, it's not the size of the protest, but what you do with it. Ah, ha! Oh, dozens of men. And it looked like, the pictures looked like there were more than dozens, man. And they were marching for small dongs.
Starting point is 00:20:52 and they wanted to end the shame that's apparently associated with having an undersized dog. So they're out there marching and they want people to know that, look, you don't have to be embarrassed. All right, if you have a small dong, it's okay. We want you to come out. And apparently some people didn't show up because,
Starting point is 00:21:14 well, they were embarrassed or they weren't embarrassed and said, no, dude. I'm good. Oh, now they had some great signs marching through the streets of L.A. One guy, they show here, has a sign that says, mine is not a choking hazard. I don't know that I'm carrying that sign. I'm not doing it.
Starting point is 00:21:54 One girl has a sign that says small dong, big heart with the heart emoji. That's awesome. She doesn't have a dong emoji, though. All dongs go to heaven. Like that one. That's good. In solidarity with shrimp dongs. Oh, my next question would be, are you?
Starting point is 00:22:19 Are you? Okay. There's nothing wrong with a small don. know, baby. I know. That's what God gave you. Just live with it. It's okay.
Starting point is 00:22:31 Don't worry about it, baby. It's okay. You'll find somebody. I am very disappointed. I would have loved to have done a live remote show from the small dong march in L.A. Because, man. And this sign, you know, end small dog shame.
Starting point is 00:23:00 I think we can all get behind that. Did I say dog? We need to get behind all dog shame too, but really the sign says dong. So, I mean, we need to end that. I think we can all get behind that, can we? No, seriously, can we? Come on, don't be mean. Would we get in trouble if we did a countermarch here in Dallas?
Starting point is 00:23:25 I mean, it's called Big D, right? We live the show emanates from DFW. I mean, would I get in trouble if I started chewing the fat march, you know, I don't know what we call it now. We're all for big D's. Big Ds are us. Small Ds don't suck. Wait, no, that doesn't work.
Starting point is 00:23:57 The, you know what? Email me, chewing the fan at the blaze.com for a slogan for our Big D march. And we may actually do that. That would be actually funny. We might get a little coverage for that too. And, I mean, I think more people are willing to carry a sign of big D's are us than and small dong shame. I think I'd go out on a limb on that one.
Starting point is 00:24:24 Not going out on the dong, though. And look, I know there's no shame, okay? Don't look at me like, oh, Jeff, everybody needs to be loved and equal. I know. I know. But, you know, I realize. Now, you know what? I'm going to stop talking now.
Starting point is 00:24:41 I'm going to dig myself into a hole that. And there's another, there's just, it's endless possibilities of jokes. I have to stop. I would just do sad news that. I give you some sad news in the break room, all right? We talked a little while ago about Abba. getting back together and they've got a new album coming out and everybody's so happy. And now we find out they're breaking up.
Starting point is 00:25:05 What? I know. Dry your eyes. And this time this is it. It's over. All right. They're not messing around anymore. And I want to quote Benny Anderson, the 74-year-old Abba group member. It's said, how wonderful making music together again. really was. And now we plan to never do it again. And then I thought maybe it was like me. I thought he was, you know, I thought
Starting point is 00:25:37 I was waiting for him and to quote Jeff Fisher. It's got to be, you know. Does I, oh, do you steal it my lines? You know, you know. You know. So we're going to break up and it's got to be. You know?
Starting point is 00:25:56 We do know. sad did you realize too i was thinking like they're going on there they're a little i guess it's some kind of like virtual tour a little meta tour from facebook so they're building they built this huge arena this concert place in london for them to do their show in it's the uh london's queen elizabeth olympic park for their aba voyage comeback tour it's constructed from timber three thousand seat hexagonal venue designed by stewfish entertainment architects and who doesn't love stewfish entertainment architects i mean when you think a concert arena is being built around the world you think a stewfish entertainment architects and it could be transpurposed uh it could be transported
Starting point is 00:26:47 repurposed to other locales and ab was supposed to start in may there and i don't know if it's going to be them or if it's going to be their avatars performing. I don't know how it's going to work, but it's going to start in May. And you look at their, you know, what's their, the latest album? Gosh darn it. What was it called? Was it the voyage? I don't feel.
Starting point is 00:27:09 Yeah, voyage. Yeah. Of course. That's why they were doing the actual The Voyage concert. Kind of makes sense, Jeff, dummy. It's the, I was looking at their album, Abba voyage. So, I mean, you still got that to look forward to. You can head over to London.
Starting point is 00:27:24 You know, bring your big D sign and maybe they'll let you in. So today, I was getting done with Pat Unleash show that I do every Friday on the show. We do more on trivia and I'm here. You know, it's fun. We have a fun Friday here on Pat's show. And, you know, my hair is actually, it's getting so long now I'm really, I honestly, I can't wait to shave my head. I really. And do I want to shave my head?

And I hope that you donate to hit my goal of hitting $6,000. That's what it takes to save and rescue someone who's been enslaved for a year. We get them back on their feet. They do great work.

Starting point is 00:28:54 so frustrated when I got off the air this morning, I use a earpiece for headphones during the television show because it's TV and you've got to look nice, okay? Which I know. I show you that it's TV. I don't want to have headphones on. And so, but the earpiece, it's been broken. The cord that, you know, the audio travels through into the earpiece breaks off. So I got to, once I hook it up to the back of my collar, I got to plug it back in.
Starting point is 00:29:26 Because the earpiece I had made, you know, so it fits my ear. It's not just a plug in. It's the shape of my ear. And so it keeps coming off. But today, you know, I took it off and the earpiece is not there. So the last couple times that I've worn it, it sticks in my ear. And I don't realize it. It's just there.
Starting point is 00:29:48 It's the shape of my ear. and so I put my finger up to my ear and it's not there and I'm like oh now I got it fell out or fell off I've got to retrace my steps and try to find this clear piece of plastic or petro technology that they use for these earpieces and then I uh so then I go to the restroom and I see the earpieces stuck in my hair and I didn't take a picture I apologize as I should have. But I've had just about enough of the hair. So donate to help me shave my head, would you? Please. Thank you.

Is that a holiday?
Starting point is 00:31:24 I kind of. We've turned it into a holiday. I don't know how crazy I'm about it anymore. I always liked it. And I still like it. I'm just kind of, I'll just get the bag of candy. eat it. I turn the light out.
Starting point is 00:31:38 I don't want to give it away. It used to be fun. It used to be fun to get, you know, everybody come to the house, and you go to Halloween parties, you dress up, and you look to see the cute little kids coming up, and you give them their candy.
Starting point is 00:31:52 You know, I make, I make them say trick-or-treat, man. I freaking hate those little kids that just come up and open the bag. It's open the bag. Speak. I want, you know, trick-or-treat. I want something. All right, I have something out of you.
Starting point is 00:32:10 I'm not just giving you the candy. Not happening. Some kids, man, it's a struggle because they don't want to speak and they're scared to speak. You ain't got no freaking candy. You go back there and stand with your parents on the sidewalk then.
Starting point is 00:32:25 The hell out of here. Then I feel bad. And the mom will be there. The mom will come up and say trick-tree. And the kids, you know, if the, If the parents there, you got to give it to them. If the kids by himself, screw that.
Starting point is 00:32:40 Trick or treat. Just trick or treat. You want some candy? Say trick or treat. Nope. Then you're not getting any candy. Close the door on them. I mean, it sounds mean when you say it like that.
Starting point is 00:32:56 But when I'm doing it, it doesn't feel mean. I just want to hear trick-or-treat. Work, I'll do something for it. You're at my door getting something free from me. I'm making you do something. Okay, that's it. Well, it isn't free, Jeff.
Starting point is 00:33:12 Well, it's tough. But I will give you another, don't forget, I'm going to give you a couple of helpful Jeff Fisher chewing the fat tips, Halloween tips, ways to get more candy. All right? My number one tip, this works every time.
Starting point is 00:33:29 You never let your kids candy bag get full. Never. You always have an extra bag that you're carrying around with the extra candy. Because people, especially when it's starting to get late, people, A, they still got candy left. They want to get rid of it. And so they, and they go, oh, you just got started late, and they give you more because your bag isn't full. And if you, oh, you don't have much, here, take more.
Starting point is 00:33:57 And, you know, you come up and it's trick-a-tree. Oh, you don't have anything yet. Here, they give you more. plus the houses that leave the this is kind of an early Halloween trick-or-treater issue because by the end it's over but you can quote me on that
Starting point is 00:34:15 but the people that leave the when trick-or-treating take your piece of candy here and they leave the bucket or the bowl with full of candy okay a don't feel it necessary just to take two and walk away all right you may feel bad about dumping
Starting point is 00:34:32 the entire bowl into your bag. I mean, you may feel bad about that. Maybe. But, I mean, you need to shovel some in, man. Shovel some in.
Starting point is 00:34:45 Because they don't know. I don't know. The ring camera isn't going to catch it. Maybe. You're in a Halloween outfit? Oh yeah, that little kid in his Darth Vader outfit took all the candy. Who is that?
Starting point is 00:34:59 I don't know. So, just, I'm just giving you some help. But the bag. The low bag thing, man, that baby works. I'm telling you. I have never seen that fail on a trick-or-tree outing, man. Plus, your kids get tired lugging around a big bag full of candy.
Starting point is 00:35:16 You're helping them out, but you're helping yourself out, man, because there's more cans. There's no way they get to eat at all. Then you come home, you dump it out on the bed to go through it to check for safety purposes and you're deep-pocketed most of the good stuff for you. That's just the way it is. And don't let your Don't let your kids dress up like Squid Game
Starting point is 00:35:36 All right, I know that's the big outfit this year But they already banned it, I think, in New York Right, the New York schools said, oh no We don't want our children dressing up like Squid Game What? That's the point Or when you could dress up as anything And it was funny
Starting point is 00:35:55 Remember like the parades down in New Orleans, Tampa Gasparilla parades And they have the Gasparilla night parade That's where the outfits get really good, man I know that's not Halloween, I'm sorry But those outfits are awesome, man And you gotta, there's gonna be some great squid game ones, man
Starting point is 00:36:14 Anyway, just kind of, you know, You should be able to dress as anything you want, damn it I want my kid to go as a violent show from Netflix I shouldn't let them do it, damn it This is America It's wrong with you You see, also, you know, Joan Rivers who died, I don't know, a while ago now,
Starting point is 00:36:35 but her one apartment in New York apparently is haunted. Yeah, her New York City penthouse, supposed to be haunted. And they were selling it. I don't even know if they sold it yet. I don't think they can get rid of it. I think they can unload the dump. It's a 5,100 square foot, 11-room triplex,
Starting point is 00:36:54 located in Manhattan's Upper East Side, and in 20 she sold she bought it in 25 years um it sold in 2015 oh she died wow she died in 2014 wow that does not seem like she died that long ago man wow so they sold it in 2015 so they did unload the dump once right after she died that's a good time to capitalize this mom lived here i didn't know it was a family Joan lived here and, you know, get rid of it. So they did an episode of celebrity ghost stories that Joan was a part of. Well, I mean, she's going to do that anyway, right?
Starting point is 00:37:39 Joan, we're doing a show on Ghost. Is your house haunted? Yes. Do the show here and pay me money. Okay. No problem. So apparently, the mansion property was put up for sale. and this was in 1903.
Starting point is 00:38:03 Oh. Now, according to the story, the niece of J.P. Morgan, the financier wanders the home. What? Okay. I mean, we've all had haunted stories, right? I mean, I know there's a picture of my wife when she was a little girl in front of their house that they all claimed was haunted.
Starting point is 00:38:36 And they all claimed, you know, there were things that happened and, you know, they witnessed the ghost. There's a picture of her as a little kid with her dad and her sister in front of that home. And you see the ghost looking at them from the window above the front door. I know. Look, I'm just telling you what you see. Oh, that's just an anomaly from the photograph, Jeff. Is it? All right. If you say so, I mean, I was looking through the list of the 32 most haunted places in America.
Starting point is 00:39:14 So I guess there's an old city in California, this Bodie, California that's all haunted. Nobody's lived there since, you know, the 1870s, something like that. All right. there's a cemetery in Savannah, Georgia It's supposed to be haunted Aren't all cemeteries A little haunting going on there I feel like they are
Starting point is 00:39:35 There's a place in Kahaba, Alabama Man, you want to talk about a good time Go to Kohaba, Alabama, man Actually, Alabama is beautiful You know, they make fun of it But Alabama is a beautiful state We went there when they were
Starting point is 00:39:56 Auburn was recruiting my son to play football there. So we went there for a big Auburn weekend as they, you know, glad handed us and they run through drills and patch on the back and give you free dinners
Starting point is 00:40:08 and all that kind of stuff. But the Outback Steakhouse in Ogalala, Alabama is the best Outback Statehouse in America. Just saying, I'm just throwing it out there. Every time I think of Alabama, I think of Ogalala, Alabama,
Starting point is 00:40:21 and the Outback Steakhouse. I'm just saying, There's a bunch of other places. They got a list of these haunted out places. You know if your place is haunted. It's Halloween. And it doesn't matter whether it's Halloween or not if you have ghosts in your life.
Starting point is 00:40:36 They're there. My mother-in-law used to have a ghost that followed her around all the time. And I personally never saw it. But many other family members have. So don't roll your eye. like you're doubting what I'm telling you the truth okay facts oh you we're done we're rolling your eyes at me like that okay I know that it's fat pile Friday and there's a ton
Starting point is 00:41:26 of stuff that we've got to get to I we also have a story another story about an animal that they thought was extinct this eagle it's an eagle owl actually, it's not a real eagle, it's an owl. Okay, we'll call it an eagle owl then, fine. We haven't seen one in 150 years. We thought they were dead. Oh, my gosh, there's one. Unbelievable.
Starting point is 00:41:51 Every time. I mean, what do you think it means, Jeff? I don't know. I'm just sick of hearing about all the animals dying because of climate change. And then the next, oh, look. Yeah, that animal we thought died. We blamed it on climate change. Oh, no, there it is.
Starting point is 00:42:07 We just haven't seen it in a while because it was, you know, hanging out in the forest smoking cigarettes, partying. And you know that they were hanging out in the, in the forest smoking cigarettes. How do I know that? Well, cigarette usage and sales went up for the first time in the last 20 years, this past year. More people.
Starting point is 00:42:38 Smoking cigarettes. million more cigarettes were sold in 2020 compared to 2019. Oh, all right. Now, smoking rates have steadily fallen since 2000, which experts attribute to tobacco taxes, anti-smoking legislation, and programs that help users quit. Yeah, probably didn't have anything to do with, you know, the causes of disease in your body. Nope.
Starting point is 00:43:05 Just, that costs too much. That's actually probably true. It's a defeating purpose, actually. We raise the price and make all this money from the product, but we don't want you to use the product anymore. I'm not sure how that works. And don't worry, they'll find new products to tax. I promise you that.
Starting point is 00:43:23 But I guess, you know, they're saying with the stress and anxiety and boredom of the pandemic, you know, I will say there might be a little bit of something to do that because there was more times than I can remember, and I may have shared them on the show, when I really wanted a cigarette. And it's still, I mean, if I'm stopped at a red light and that car is smoking and that car is smoking,
Starting point is 00:43:58 it's everything I have not to get out of my car and just go, dude, give me a cigarette, man. Because if you're a smoker, you're going to give them one. If I'm sitting there smoking, the back of the day, when I was smoking. If I'm sitting there at the red light, smoking is waiting for the light to turn green. And I hear a,
Starting point is 00:44:18 dude, you got a cigarette? Yeah, I got you, man. I got you. Get out of here. Because on the street corner, I'm probably saying, no. Yeah, I'm all out. Let me alone. Buy your own.
Starting point is 00:44:28 Isn't it sitting in a car like that? Yeah, here you go. You mean to light that bad boy for you? Yeah, get out of here. I'm doing it. No, I know. It's just me. Anyway, the eagle owl.
Starting point is 00:44:38 We found when they thought it was dead. Had seen one 150 years. Nope. And I see where we're on the verge of actually chatting with whales. Right? I don't know if you ever saw the documentary Finding Nemo. They spoke to whales in that show, okay? Now, what would you say to a whale?
Starting point is 00:45:01 Now, I mean, I know that, you know, we have the Finding Nemo. Who was it the? Which one in the documentary? Dory. Dory knew how to speak to whales, right? but I don't know that Dory ever said Oh, okay I'm sorry, what was that?
Starting point is 00:45:27 Oh, okay. And that, if you remember, was the whale that was lying on the beach that was beached. That's right. This lady was already speaking to him. Oh, okay. Thank you.
Starting point is 00:45:44 She knows. Now, I'm guessing that she realized the whale is on the beach going, uh, when you hear, that means, help me. I'm stuck. Don't kill me. Drag my ass back out on the beach. Now, maybe that meant that he wanted to die, actually. Maybe when you hear, he's just telling you, leave me alone.
Starting point is 00:46:08 All right. I just want to die. That's why I beach myself here, okay. But we're already speaking to him. The hell do we need these people who don't need our money to talk to whales? We've already talking to them. Oh, okay. My gosh, it's embarrassing.
Starting point is 00:46:23 And I see where we found a new planet. A new, it's called a extra galactic planet. It's the first extra galactic planet. And it's only about 28, 29 million miles. I'm sorry. 28, 29 million light years away. So there's that. I mean, when you think about that,
Starting point is 00:46:54 20, let's just say it's, well, this is more math. I don't think my calculator is actually going to pull this one off because you're 28 million light years away. So it takes light year, Speed of light travels at 186,282,282 miles per second. All right. So it's going to take about 37,200 human years to travel one light year.
Starting point is 00:47:33 And this extra galactic planet is 28 million light years. years away. That seems like we're not going to make it. I mean, I don't know. You know, it just seems like to me, we're not going to be. God. Weightlessness. Oh, Jesus.
Starting point is 00:47:58 Seems to me that's not going to happen. Although, you'd have plenty of time. You'd have plenty of time traveling 28 million light years. At 30, wow, I mean 37,200 human years to travel one light year. All right. So that's, all right, I got to know now. So 28 million light years times 37,000 200 human years, right? How many human years going into light years?
Starting point is 00:48:38 It'd be a long time. It would be a really long time. You're going to need to have a different type of traveling system. You're going to have to have a system that it doesn't stop moving when the clouds show up. You're going to have to have a system that's better than that. Elon, I know you're working on batteries. I know you're working on your little space shuttle thing. I know you're selling your little cars to Hertz and letting Uber drivers drive them around now.
Starting point is 00:49:11 Let's work on something else. Let's work on some propulsion. Propulsion. Propulsion. Propulsion. Propulsion. Yeah, that's what I said, okay? Propulsion.
Starting point is 00:49:26 We're going to have to work on a new propulsion system. Okay? Elon, work on that this weekend, would you please? All right, I know we've got to wrap it up here today. I'm busy, you're busy. Well, I'm not really busy. I've got nothing else going on, but I know you do. But, you know, last night I was, I was, you know, surfing the social media accounts.
Starting point is 00:49:47 And as I was going through Twitter, I had a notice come up on my Twitter. I was reading a story and I was looking at the comments. And the one comment said, this account owner limits who can view their tweets. Now, you commented on a particular. story and now you don't want me to see what you commented that pisses me on i don't think that should be allowed i want twitter to pull that so then i clicked on learn more so it takes me to the whole help center page and i'm a holy cow all these notices on this tweet may include sensitive content the following media includes potentially sensitive content placing a tweet and violation behind an
Starting point is 00:50:39 interstate. Ah, this tweet violated the Twitter rules. Get the facts about COVID-19. I have seen that a bunch. Manipulated media. You may be seeing that on mine. I don't know. I'm just, I'm tired. I'm tired. At Jeffrey JFR. I'm tired of just, why would you tweet something and then not want everyone on Twitter to see it? Not real sure I understand that. Unless you were part of the, you know, a small dong march
Starting point is 00:51:17 and you're a little embarrassed and you don't want everybody on Twitter to know. You just wanted other members of the hashtag small dong march army to see your post. Yeah, I guess that does make sense, doesn't it? All right. Never mind. I'm not mad anymore. Stream and subscribe to more Blaze Media content at theblaze.com. Podcasts.
