And now, chewing the fat with Jeff Fisher.
Coming to a country near you soon.
The Portuguese Parliament, and when you think of countries on the cutting edge, you think of Portugal.
The Portuguese Parliament has passed new labor laws to give workers a healthier work-life balance
and to attract digital nomads to the country.
Man, do I want to move to Portugal?
Employees could face penalties now for contacting employees outside of work.
So if once your work day is over, there's no, the boss can't text you and say, hey, what's going on?
No, against the law.
The legislation approved is they're trying to expand homeworking after the pandemic.
And under the new rules, employers penalized for contacting employees after.
after work, going to be forced to pay for increased expenses as a result of working from home,
such as gas and electricity.
And further rules are going to be implemented to aid employees at home,
like banning employers from monitoring their workers at home,
and ensuring workers must meet with their boss every two months to stop isolation.
Oh, okay, that's great.
Plus, the one thing that didn't pass,
is the right to disconnect a law-giving workers
the ability to switch off work devices
was not voted through.
So the boss can't get a hold of you,
but there's no switching off that work computer.
That needs to stay on.
Otherwise, I wonder if the boss contacts you,
if you shut off the computer, then it's on you.
Can you break a law because another law was broken?
Maybe in Portugal.
I don't know, but I think I'm moving to Portugal.
uh
no you know what
never mind
I like it right here in
Texas
welcome to chewing the fat
is that part of the sounder
now is that part of the open
it can't be
that was a celebration of the night of the long fart
where our president was
you know having a party with Camilla
and uh she he passed
gas and she can't stop talking about it.
Just, I mean, we don't need to
make that part of the open anymore.
Let's just, let's just not do
that. That's embarrassing. It's embarrassing.
It makes me think of Joe Biden
and, you know, any of that. I can't even,
I put my, I put my fart bag away
now. It's in a cupboard.
Right. No, stop.
See, that's what I mean.
Don't. Because the fart bag
will just make me remind me of
the night of the long fart.
and I, you know, I guess maybe we just have our own celebration,
like a chewing the fat night of the long fart.
Ooh, that one was, you need to wash up a little.
Okay, all right, that's enough.
All right, so we know that Pfizer, Biointech,
requested authorization for booster shots for all U.S. adults
above 18 years of old, 18 years of age.
So that's good.
We've got that going for us.
We also know that Moderna's vaccine went from being 89% effective in March to 58% effective in September.
The Pfizer vaccine went from 87% to 45% in September.
In the same six-month period, the Johnson and Johnson vaccine went from 86% percent.
effectiveness to 13% effectiveness.
Wow.
So you're going to be getting your booster shots and you're going to be taking care of some
Pfizer-Mectin along the way if needed.
And I really am, I tell you what I'm really tired of and I think we talked about it before.
But I'm really, I am really tired about how we make people feel when they get COVID.
You know, we always make it sound, they've got COVID.
You got COVID.
How dare you?
They got COVID, and they either were vaccinated, if they were vaccinated, I got COVID and he was
still vaccinated.
Or I got COVID and I wasn't vaccinated.
He wasn't vaccinated.
I'm just, I'm really over being made to feel terrible over getting a virus that is pretty
much unstoppable.
I mean, we have all this vaccine and we're supposed to take the shower.
We're still getting sick.
We're getting less sick, which is good.
good, but I mean, it's over.
Just get the shots and move on with your life.
And if you don't want to get the shot, don't get the shot, and let's move on with our lives.
Okay?
Let's treat it like, I don't know, it's over.
And I feel like we're, you know, we're still getting stories about places around the world
that are offering services to get vaccinated.
Here in America, I mean, we did the, we did the, get the shot.
You get free pot.
We did the, you get a, like a gift card.
And I feel like we did a thing here in the U.S. too with the brothels out in Nevada where you could, you know, get the jab.
Oh, yeah.
How about get a little pandemic business going on?
Yeah.
I mean, hello.
And now, I mean, they're talking about.
Austria, there's a brothel.
They had a big story about a brothel saying,
hey, you know, get the stick and get the stick.
Come on in.
A stick for a stick.
A jab for a jab.
I don't know that that was their actual advertising campaign,
but that's, it was for me.
So, and they're saying,
and one of the things in this story,
it talked about you can be 14 years of age
and go to the brothel and get the jabber.
for a jab.
I think your parents had to be with you.
I think mom or dad had to be with you.
But that's a, I mean,
for a route accident,
provided an adult was with them.
Yeah, so it said,
now the story says boys as young as.
But if you're a girl and wanted to go to the brothel
and get a jab for a jab,
I don't see why you couldn't.
Now, would that make you,
is that an incentive enough to get the vaccine?
I don't know.
I don't know.
I mean, Austria, I'm guessing, has had some problems with their vaccination rates.
Yeah, they're saying only 63% of Austrians have received the shot.
And so they're trying to get it up to 70 or 75.
I mean, they want to get to 70 or 75.
And, I mean, we have our administration wanting us to get to, you know, 100%.
So, all right, fine, no problem.
But I will.
I mean, am I?
willing to get my booster shot?
Four, because it's, I mean, it's not a six months.
It hasn't been six months since I've been fully vaccinated.
Twice vaccinated.
This is I've got the second shot.
But how long has it been?
Three months?
Something like that?
Two and a half months, something like that since I've been fully vaccinated.
So I still have a little bit of time before I can, I'm going to go pick a brothel this
weekend that I'm going to pick out and, you know, just give them an idea.
hey, you know, in a few months you ought to start a campaign.
Booster for a booster.
You know what I'm saying?
Jab for a jab.
Stick for a stick.
We stick you, you stick us.
Something like that.
Just an idea.
That's what I'm doing here at June, Nevada's just throwing out ideas.
We ought to start, once again, though,
ever so often we've got to start to go fund me for people that you don't think need it.
but Elon Musk is losing money.
He lost $50 billion in two days.
$50 billion.
When you think you're having a bad day,
did you lose $50 billion?
Did you?
Now, Elon is still worth a little bit more
than the rest of the world.
He lost $50 billion,
and he's still the richest man on the planet.
All right.
He's got more.
He has $122 billion more than the guy in second place.
That's Jeff Bezos.
Bezos hates him so much.
He can't stand that Elon is in front of him like that.
And I love it so much.
I mean, Elon's not throwing cash out.
And it's all make-believe money anyway, right?
but I mean
you lose 50 billion in a couple of days
you tend to think man life sucks
don't you or don't you? Now if you're a billionaire
you probably look at it the opposite way
oh it's going to be more opportunities
okay thank you
Elon I appreciate it
I see where and speaking of Bezos
you see where the wife
I guess she isn't the wife she's still the girlfriend
Lauren Sanchez
was all
rubbing up against
Leonardo DiCaprio?
I mean, she was ready
for Leo to hop on
her right there.
Man, she wanted
Leo Bidness
desperately.
It was ugly.
Ugly. Now, Jeff
apparently, you know,
he claims that he
and Leo are friends and their buddies.
Are you?
I mean, I'm sure Leo
likes you, Jeff, because he's
looking for a little bit of that Amazon movie money.
And I got no problem.
That's fine.
No problem.
And Lauren is looking for a little bit of that Leo movie business going on.
I mean, it was embarrassing.
It was embarrassing.
And I'm sure she was probably, you know, a little tipsy.
And she's, oh, Leonardo DiCaprio.
But we all saw her out in the desert when the Blue Origin landed, right, when the first time.
And then she was out there the second time when, uh,
God.
Oh, yeah.
Oh, Jesus.
Yes.
I mean, she was out there for that.
But the picture of her at this event, they were at this L-A-C-M-A gala, and that's where she was, you know, rubbing up.
Oh, Leo, don't go anywhere.
Look at me.
She is spending a little bit of Jeff's money on Clown Face.
Wow.
Wow.
man Jeff you need to cut back on that
bro otherwise yeah I mean
she's going to be history right she's just going to
hit Jeff's going to have to find
a new pilot to start dating
other than her because that's where he met her
right she was his helicopter pilot
and all the workers were like oh Jeff
would go on these trips
frequently and we were all surprised
yeah they were going on those helicopter trips
all right yeah I just is it a
is it a different mile high club if you're taking care of
a business in the helicopter if you just if you're just hovering in the helicopter i don't know i'm
just asking half a mile hub club uh you know you hub i hub i have i don't know what they call it if you
have if you've taken care of business in a helicopter and know what you call it email me chewing
the fat at the blaze dot com i want to know i want to know what it's called but she holy cow i didn't think like
I saw the picture of her, you know, rubbing up against Leo, and I'm thinking,
uh, that was a lot bigger than they were.
And then, uh, then you see the full shot of the gala shot of her and Jeff.
You know, everybody gets their, you know, gets their fancy-pancy's photograph for the gala.
Oh, my gosh.
Oh, Lauren, stop.
Stop.
You've almost pushed it too far, babe.
Okay.
Uh, maybe that's what Jeff likes.
He loves you so much.
He wants you to change.
I get it.
And maybe he wants those big old boys
booming around when he's got nothing else to do
on the yacht or the ship
or wherever you're at.
And maybe it's interesting if you're floating.
She hasn't gone up in space.
Maybe that's why.
She couldn't medically do it.
She gets up into weightlessness.
God.
Weightlessness.
Yeah.
I mean, holy God.
Those big old boys float.
floating around man holy cow anyway uh Lauren just take it easy baby because if you're not
you're not a you're not a you're not a clown I mean you're pretty close man it's a
wow this is it is really is please Lauren just calm down a little bit babe all right let's go
to the break room and actually get to something that has
some relevance to the world.
What? Lauren Sanchez
and her plastic surgery isn't relevant?
All right. Break room.
I need something cold to drink desperately.
So good.
So I'm thinking about starting a new segment
here at the break room called
Who Died Today?
Who died today?
Because every day I turn around, somebody else is dying.
And I mean, maybe I feel like
That's why my grandfather was always like,
oh, look at the obituaries.
Make sure I'm not in it.
Okay, grandpa, we got it, okay?
So yesterday we had, what's his face, Dean Stockman, 85.
Stockman?
Stockwell, Stockwell?
You know the actor from Quantum Leaf, that guy.
He was, you know, he's been an actor for, I don't know,
hundreds of years and did all kinds of stuff.
And we talked about his death, very sad.
And, you know, for his family, if you're listening, seriously,
rest in peace.
I loved him.
If he was your uncle or dad or whatever,
I loved him.
So today in our who died today,
Terrence Astro Wilson.
And you think,
wait,
who is Terrence Astro Wilson?
Well,
he was a former member of UB40,
the band.
Oh,
right.
Right.
You remember UB40
with their one hit?
Red, red wine.
everybody remembers that
and did you know
I found this out of looking about Terrence
I was like
Terrence Astor
was from UB40
I mean does we even count
UB40 as a band
and I mean they had some hits
but I didn't know
that UB40
has their own app
right
do you want the UB40
app if you're
if not
if you don't have the UB40
app
you're missing out
you're behind
the scenes access to the band.
It's available on iPhone,
Android, desktop,
ub.fan,
dot direct, slash big love.
Just look for the UB40 app.
Don't worry about the actual
the actual IP address.
Don't worry about that.
Anyway, the UB40 app, if you don't have it,
you are missing out.
So rest in peace,
Astro, and we love you.
I guess he was,
he had some kind of short illness.
I think that was actually he was questioned a few days ago
before his passing at 64 years of age.
Astro, Astro, what's wrong?
All right, never mind.
And we should have stuck around because then he died.
It's kind of sad.
I know, I know.
Anyway, rest of peace.
From our segment of Who died today?
Astro rest in peace
and you take care of yourself
and we'll look out for you on the app
and make sure everything's okay
and in breaking news
while you know he didn't die
or he hasn't died yet
Brian Williams
Brian Williams leaving NBC
Dry your eyes
I know
28 years at NBC.
And of course, 28 years, 38 countries, 8 Olympic games,
seven presidential elections, half a dozen presidents,
a few wars.
We just threw the wars in there because that's where he screwed up
and got in trouble because he lied about being what was going on in the wars.
A few wars and one SNL under his belt.
Brian Williams is saying so long at the end of the year.
So he says that now, so he gets to have a few farewell shows.
Everybody can come on and kiss Brian's ass and say,
what a great guy you were.
We love you. Brian was so great to work with you and great.
And in his farewell to the colleagues, Williams,
took a little stock of some of his accomplishments.
Good friends were in great supply here at NBC.
I was fortunate that everyone I worked with made me better at my job.
So he broke countless stories,
attracted top journalists to his programs,
You never mind that whole suspension thing.
Don't worry about that.
Never mind that.
Never mind screwing over my main man, Lester Holt, to get the desk job.
Don't worry about that, Brian.
All right.
Don't just worry about being on MSNBC now instead of on the main network.
Thankfully, Lester finally got his foot in the door over there.
Pisses me off.
But hey, goodbye, Brian.
Take care.
Great job.
I heard it on the news.
And I said it was ridiculous, man.
That's it.
Yeah, that was before Lester.
Hey, just a reminder to, you can follow me on all my social media accounts, Twitter at Jeffrey JFR.
Facebook and Instagram is Jeff Fisher Radio.
If you want to get a hold of me, you can always email me chewing the fat at the blaze.com.
I'm trying to raise some money for OUR, Our Rescue.
Man, I'm going to shave my head nine days away if you're listening live today.
It is the 10th of November, 2021.
And so on the 19th that Friday afternoon, I'm going to shave my head live on Instagram and Facebook, Jeff Fisher Radio.
But I'm doing so because I want to try to bring you up to our rescue and what they do to save human slaves today going on right now.
And it costs about $6,000 for one year to reestablish someone back into real life.
So with the legal documents and travel and medical, food, water, lodging, education,
it takes about $6,000 for a survivor for one year.
That's what I'm hoping to raise at least $6,000.
We try to save one person and let them rehab for a year.
And you can donate by going to ourrescue.org, donate tab, fundraisers tab, then scroll down,
or you can just go to the link that I have in my bios on my social media accounts
and click on that and donate that way.
But I mean, you can.
You can go to hourrescue.org, then go to the donate tab, then go to the fundraiser's tab,
then scroll down and find the fundraiser to the Jeffie Fundraiser, and then click on that, and then donate.
If you want to go through all that, great.
Either way, thank you.
Okay, so I guess it's confirmed.
Squid Game Season 2 has a done deal.
According to Huang Deng Heik.
the creator of the South Korean hit.
I don't know if that's the proper way to say his name.
It's H-W-A-N-G-D-O-N-G-H-Y-Y-U-K.
Huang Dong-Hik.
I'm not sure if that's Huang-Dong-Huyik.
So, hey Huang, or is it Mr. Dong Heik?
I don't know.
Anyway, he's the creator, bless his heart.
And so he is confirming that season two will take place on Netflix.
He said, you leave us, no choice.
Yeah, no kidding.
And, I mean, it was good, and I enjoyed it.
I don't know that it was as good as it's made out.
to be.
But, you know, okay, I mean, by season, by the time they get done and throw season two at us,
I think we may be past Squid Game.
But whatever.
He said he wanted to try to make a movie first before he got to it.
I'm sure Netflix said, yeah, that sounds great.
Here's another bunch of millions of dollars.
Go make season two.
Stick your movie up your rear.
Hi, I, y-oy.
And he said,
okay, I'll take the Netflix money and I'll make my movie later.
So, you know, who knows?
We'll see.
And he's going to have to come up with a, I mean, he left it at the end.
I can, you know, spoiler for a squid game for you.
You should have already seen it.
If you haven't seen it yet, what are you doing with your life?
Really?
I mean, it's a squid game.
It's only like nice eight or nine episodes.
Get through it.
Move on with your life, okay?
Plus, a Yellowstone started, and I'm so ticked.
I haven't seen.
Yellowstone yet.
The season four started.
It's awesome.
So I've watched the first like 10 minutes, the opening scene of the first, the first episode.
It's a double episode season premiere.
It was this Sunday.
And it starts off at the beginning of the season starts where it ended last season.
And so I, and then I had to stop it because I had to go to this thing that I didn't know I had to go to.
on Sunday.
And so then Monday, I sit down, and then I realize I find out I got to go to this thing
that I didn't know I had to go to.
So I had to shut it off again.
And then yesterday, I had things that I knew I had to go to that I had to go to.
So then today, I had things that I knew I had to do to go to.
So I'm getting to it.
Because Sunday is a busy viewing day.
We've got dead, fear of the walking dead, and world beyond.
and then you have succession
and you have Yellowstone now
plus I have all my other shows
there's only so much I can do
okay I just say there's only so much
I can do so I mean I'm getting to it
so when I get to Yellowstone
I'll let you know
I'm looking forward to it
all right I am looking forward to it
you see I keep everybody sending me
this stupid story okay I got it
I got it I know I ask you to send me stuff
to chewing the fat at the blaze.com
or you can, you know, DM me or message me on Twitter or Facebook when you find stories.
And, you know, and I appreciate it.
I do.
But I got it.
Okay?
So this lady, she slips and falls down a mountainside.
And now she looks like me.
The picture, it looks like I should do a recreation of this lady is what I should do, really.
A chewing the fat recreation.
Maybe that's something that the YouTube channel could become a chewing the fat recreation channel.
Anyway, so she's wearing leggings.
And you know, my wife does as a spokesman or photographer for Haleo, the leggings.
And they're fantastic.
Now, this is not Haleo, all right?
But this lady slides down this mountain and she's, you know, Walmart looking.
So you know what I'm saying.
So she's wearing these leggings, okay?
And they don't rip or anything.
She's,
and so now these,
these leggings are all sold out going crazy because her people,
you people,
you know who you are.
I'll think that it's great leggings.
So I got to push my wife down a mountain or something with their leggings on.
And then I, you know,
can record it and say,
Haleo,
saved my wife.
And then you'll buy Haleo.
You can use her.
If you use,
oh, crap, what is it now?
Where's my phone?
Seriously, where is my phone?
Where is my phone?
Okay, this is not good.
This is not good.
Put them on hold.
Because I got to go, like this can't stand.
Thanks for holding.
your listenership is very important to us.
We'll be with you momentarily.
Thanks for listening to Chewing the Fad.
Thanks for holding.
Your listenership is very important to us.
I can't find my phone.
So anyway, I was going to tell you that you could save money on Haleo
if you use my wife's code, coupon code Fisher 10.
So I guess I'm just going to have to push her down the old mountain side with the halios on
and film it because it will.
worked for this lady, so, you know, maybe it'll work for me.

Okay, a couple headlines for you to get into.
Did you see where the Oklahoma Supreme Court overturned the opioid epidemic judgment against Johnson and Johnson?
$465 million.
The Supreme Court overturned it.
Incredible.
I didn't think that that would ever happen.
I thought we were on an opioid pandemic, ruin them all world.
but apparently not according to Oklahoma Supreme Court.
And we also have a new medical study that's using psilocybin,
you know, the psychoactive ingredient found in mushrooms.
I'm sorry, magic mushrooms,
that shows that the compound is effective in treating severe depression.
I cannot tell you how depressed.
am right now. I mean, wow, am I depressed? And why am I depressed? Because I keep seeing a stupid
Kyle Rittenhouse trial. I can't take it. Why is this kid on trial, first of all? Oh, he killed people.
Okay. First of all, I know. All right. I mean, I was going to say, first of all, did he? But yeah, we all know he did.
He's not innocent.
He wasn't, it wasn't.
And the guy already admitted from the prosecution that it was self-defense.
They should have just closed up shop right then.
So now he's on the stand now.
And he, I don't know if he's coming across well.
There may be a reason why they tell you not to get on the stand for yourself.
Because I think he's holding up that reason.
I'm looking at him going, ooh, why?
are you testifying, bro.
But when he's found not guilty,
then how much money does he get for a book deal?
Is there a book company out there
that gives Kyle Rittenhouse a book deal?
I think in today's world not.
Maybe self-publishes,
but you know what?
Email me at Chewing the Fat at the Blaze.com
and give me a Kyle Writtenhouse book title.
Because what comes to my mind is
everyone keeps telling me
I should have killed more, Kyle Rittenhouse.
I don't think Simon & Schuster is going to print that.
My friends told me to shoot more, Kyle Rittenhouse.
I don't know.
I can't take any more of this.
I really can.
It's just agonizing to me.
Oh, this one came through just a minute ago.
Yes, I think they deserve to die,
and I hope they burn in hell.
The Kyle Rittenhouse story.
on ABC. Oh, wait, that's not the book.
No, that's a movie, ABC
Monday night. What is the Sunday night movies on
ABC? Tonight on ABC.
Kyle, Rittenhouse.
Yes, I deserve, they deserve
to die. What was it?
I hope they burn in hell.
I hope they burn in hell. Tonight on
ABC. Yes, that's what I want.
Chewing the Fat at the Blaze.com.
So I'm thinking, I mean, I don't even know if
he gets season one, but does he get a season two
on Netflix?
You know, Kyle, Written.
House,
The true story.
What was the city he was in?
Kenosha.
Yeah, that's right.
Kenosha, Kenosha King,
written house story.
The streets of Kenosha
tonight on Netflix.
I mean, we just have to drop a quick,
quick six episodes.
Season one,
Writtenhouse.
The real story behind Winosha.
What was the name of the city?
What knows?
Whatever the name?
Whatever the real story about that god-awful city in Wisconsin.
Writtenhouse, tonight at nine.
Okay, so I guess we're supposed to hate Chris Pratt now, too.
You see where Chris Pratt compared his new kid,
compared his love, his love to his wife to a baseball card.
And he also thanked her for giving him a healthy daughter.
Now, I mean, normally you think, okay, well, that's fine, no problem.
But everyone was quick to point out that his first son has some issues.
So that's his way of slamming the first wife.
I love this one.
She's as good as one of my baseball cards.
But thank you for giving me a healthy kid.
Oh, so bad.
But apparently now people were giving him a hard time.
And he went to bad and felt bad and upset and depressed over making people upset over his stuff.
He was upset because other people were upset.
So his mother-in-law, Maria Shriver, remember his new wife, Schwarzenegger, whatever stupid name is.
Maria told him
It might be Pratt
She might have changed her name
I don't know
If your last name is Schwarzenegger
Do you change your name to Pratt?
I don't think so
I don't think you do
Find that out
Seriously find that out
Because I don't think you do
Find out her name
Pratt's wife's name
Right
I think his wife's name
Isforknager
Because if your last name is Schwarzenegger
You don't change it to Pratt
You might be
Schwarzenegger Pratt
or Pratt Schwarzenegger,
but you don't, you're not losing Schwarzenegger.
That's too much of a, that's iconic.
You don't lose that.
Anyway, he's, you know, that's the wife now.
But Maria Shriver, you know, mother-in-law,
told him, hey, rise above the noise, Chris.
We love you, okay?
And just rise above the noise.
Oh, okay.
No problem.
I just love that everybody's pissed at him
for saying that he loved his wife
as much as my favorite baseball card
there's nothing that says
love like that baseball card.
I mean, how much is the card worth?
And it wasn't a bad thing to say thanks for the healthy kid.
Everybody thinks they're wise for having a
now that I say it out loud
maybe it was a dig
because the first kid had some real issues
I don't remember what was wrong with the first kid
but he'd had health issues anyway
from the very
from very beginning
no he was not
was he
in my ear I'm told that he was
a word you're not supposed to say anymore
that we've discussed on this show
that you're not supposed to say it's one of those words now
well you can't
say the R word.
That's even worse.
I mean, that really makes it, that points it out.
Right?
If I say, oh, he was retarded.
If I say that, is that worse than everybody who thinks he's the R word?
I don't even know if he was.
I just know he had health issues.
Is that a health issue?
If you're the R word, is that a health issue?
I don't think it is.
No, not in terms.
today's world in is not my friend.
No, maybe back in the old days.
In the old days, oh, my gosh, they didn't have a
retard, did they?
No, you can't say that anymore.
We ought to even beep that out.
That could be, I mean,
oh my gosh, you didn't have an R word, did you?
Yeah, I mean, in the old days,
you'd lead back and say the real word.
I mean, but in today's world,
you got to say, oh, yeah, they had an R word.
All right, we've got to find out what was wrong with Pratt's kid.
Hold on.
Yeah, okay, so the first kid had a cerebral hemorrhage during birth
and has slight physical disabilities because of it.
It's very possible that because of that,
you're leaning toward the R word.
I don't think that counts, though, does it?
All right, that's enough of that.
I can't.
I can't.
I'm already in enough trouble.

So meta,
you know, Facebook's parent company
says it's going to block
advertisers from targeting users
based on race
ethnicity
I can I not say that word?
Ethnicity
political affiliation,
religion, or sexual orientation.
Who are they going to target the ads to then?
I guess that's everybody.
Isn't that the point of advertising?
Okay.
So examples of topics related to sexual orientation
and religious practices that will be banned
from being used to target ads,
including terms like same-sex marriage,
LGBT culture, Catholic Church, and Jewish holidays.
Do we do that?
Do we do that?
Hey, buy a mattress.
It's a Jew holiday.
Do we do that?
No.
No, we do not.
It's Christmas?
No, never mind.
No, never mind.
Don't see, you're going to get me in trouble again
when you say that stuff in my ear.
You just lead me down a road that I don't want to go down.
What are you talking about?
So any topic or term related to political beliefs, social issues, advocacy causes, as well as political organizations and figures will also be banned.
I mean, seriously, we are down to the point of, hello, my name is Bill.
Buy my product.
Smile.
That's it.
It's not going to be, I was.
And this is how I came up with, and now you should buy, because that might be looked a social issue, a political belief.
Wow.
The company will also prohibit ads targeted around certain health causes, such as terms like lung cancer awareness and chemotherapy.
What?
Why?
I mean, are we frowning upon people that have cancer and are going through chemotherapy?
therapy don't say it i they they're getting the c word i mean what yeah lung cancer awareness so we don't
we don't want to make people aware that you have lung cancer i guess it's okay if you have lung
cancer oh he's one of those lungers i thought that was tuberculosis right if you're a lunger
that's tuberculosis that's not lung cancer can we back up to the c word i think that that
We already have one of those.
A C word?
Well, that was chemotherapy.
You're getting a C word.
Oh, the C word is the word that nobody likes here in America
that they love in the United Kingdom, right?
Yeah.
C with a U and an N and a T, right?
That word, that's the C word?
I freaking hate this word stuff so much.
I can't freaking take it.
Say the word!
I feel like I'm angry and I don't want to be angry.
I don't want to be angry.
I'm tired of being angry.
I feel like I'm just too angry.
I don't want to be angry.
I want to be able to say the C word when I want to say the C word.
I want to be able to say,
oh, therapy.
I want to be able to say he's got lung cancer.
I just want to be able to say that.
So META has argued that ads should be protected as a part of free speech.
And as a result has been hesitant.
to remove political and issue advertising.
Yeah.
No kidding.
I don't know how they're going to make money.
I heard a show yesterday.
I heard a show yesterday mad that networks were advertising for Pfizer
and taking a big pharma money.
I'm not sure if you're aware,
but companies make money by you.
selling ads.
That's how they do it.
So when Pfizer...
Hello?
Pfizer here.
Oh, welcome in, Mr. Pfizer.
How are you?
Fine, thank you.
We are a big pharmaceutical company.
And we have millions, if not billions of dollars.
We'd like to advertise our company on your network.
Oh, no.
No, please.
Take your money away.
We want just the local barbecue.
guy that has $15
to put on a billboard.
Are you kidding me?
I don't understand.
I'm confused.
The world has me
confused. That's what the problem is.
The world has me confused.
I see where General Electric,
what is going on to? We're getting
had here somehow.
And I want to know, I want
someone to let me know how we're getting had.
Okay, so we broke up Facebook
by making meta, right?
So Facebook is just under meta.
And I feel like Google was the beginning of this with the alphabet,
and they saw this coming.
Because now we find out that General Electric is splitting up.
All right.
So General Electric, manufacturing and technology,
is going to split into three companies focusing on the firm's health care,
power, and aviation units.
officials said the move will bring focus to the separate divisions allowing the creation of industry-specific boards and broadening the investor base of each.
I feel like we're being had for some reason.
I'm not sure what they're doing.
I don't like it.
I don't like it.
We're being had.
We're being sold something that we should not be sold, but we're still okay.
I don't know what it is.
I mean, GE, that's one of the big companies of the world.
They were one of the first companies of the Dow Jones Industrial.
They've been, I mean, Thomas Edison, I just, I feel like we're, we're being ahead.
I don't like it.
Anytime you turn around and you realize we're being had, I don't like it.
Something is happening.
They're covering their butts for something and I don't like it.
I don't like it.
another thing I do like though
and it's rare
and I hate sticking up for Ted Cruz
because he's
he really
ticked me off at the end
of his presidential run
but that's another story
I digress
he's a great senator from the state of Texas
but I see where he told students
in an interview
that if Texas
does
break away from the country
we absolutely
should
take the military and NASA.
Yes.
If the Democrats and the filibuster,
if they fundamentally destroy the country,
if they pack the Supreme Court,
there may come a point where it's hopeless.
We're not there yet.
And if there comes a point where it's hopeless,
then I think we take NASA,
we take the military, we take the oil.
Amen.
I mean, I don't know that that's something that's wrong.
But okay, I got no problem with it, really.
Oh, I should never succeed.
What are you talking about?
I know.
I know.
But just saying.
All right, before I get out of here, I wanted to say that I wanted to thank
those of you that email Chewing the Fat of the Blaze.com,
especially Nicholas, sent a great email,
love the show, keep up the great work.
I mean, you don't really need to say anything more.
I do want a title for the written house book and or series and or film
and or ABC Sunday Night Special to my email address.
But also I wanted to thank Dr. Suria Farah, who emailed me.
