Starting point is 00:00:32 And now chewing the fat with Jeff Fisher. So I see where Wall Street Journal has ranked the airlines in 2021, and they've ranked the nine airlines, Delta, Alaska, Southwest, United, Allegiant American Frontier, Spirit, and JetBlue. And they've ranked them in that order. Delta number one across the board. Alaska number two, Southwest, three, United Four, Allegiant Five, American, Frontier and Spirit,
Starting point is 00:01:03 seven and eight. And of course, the bottom is jet blue. They weren't the bottom in everything. They were eighth in on-time arrivals out of nine, four in canceled flight. Who was the worst? Allegiant was worst in canceled flights.
Starting point is 00:01:19 But they were the bottom in extreme delays. And spirit, JetBlue, and Frontier are all in the bottom of complaints. Well, then I, see that and I think, yeah, okay, I guess that looks about right, but it's still the airlines. And just because, you know, I'm okay with Delta being number one across the board. Does that mean there aren't any delays or any complaints? No. But, you know, that makes them the best of the worst.
Starting point is 00:01:48 And then I see a story that talks about frontier airlines and Spirit Airlines announcing plans to merge. Oh, it's great. The bottom, well, they're not the bottom, next to the bottom, to airlines. are looking to merge. Isn't that wonderful? They say that it's going to be a $6.6 billion deal, if approved, and that would create the fifth largest U.S. airline. Spirit and Frontier say the deal would create a discount Megasord.
Starting point is 00:02:21 What are we, the Power Rangers? It would provide a million, no, I'm sorry, a billion dollars in annual savings for consumers. would it? And they claim that it would create 10,000 new jobs by 2026. Oh, that is so special. So the deal is expected to close in the second half of this year, 2022, but before it could happen, it needs to get past regulators. And they've already signaled distaste for airline alliances. Why? As I'm looking at this, I'm thinking, I mean, the government should just take them over, right? It should just be, we're merging them all. It's government air. It's government delta.
Starting point is 00:03:01 government Alaska, government Southwest, government United, government allegiance, government American, government frontier, government spirit, government jet blue. It's what it is already, really. They're all taking government money, so it might as well be. We can't get rid of them. So what's the big deal if they merge? I mean, is it matter who we're tweeting about when something goes wrong? Because I'm sure that they'll get right back to us to try to get it settled.
Starting point is 00:03:30 you know, being the Power Rangers and all, because it'll be Morphan time. Yeah, I got it. I got it. So just let them all. I mean, that's what they are anyway. Right? Yes. That's Morphan Time.
Starting point is 00:03:45 Welcome to Chewing the Fat. All right, crimes and drugs. That's what makes America. Hack, America was built on crimes and drugs. A Florida man attempted to rob a bank wearing a Sonic the Hedgehog mask. And he went in, officers were dispatched to the credit union in Deland, Florida,
Starting point is 00:04:12 and they were coming there in response to an armed robbery in progress. So the suspect, wielding a hammer, confronted a bank employee to demand money. And he didn't get any money. He was wearing his Sonic the Hedgehog mask, along with his hammer for a weapon. and he ran away. Witnesses described the person as wearing a mask looking like Sonic, and he took off and they never called him. You're not catching Sonic.
Starting point is 00:04:43 I don't know why this was a big surprise. It's Sonic the Hedgehog. Duh. You're not catching him. So if you have information on where Sonic, you know, might be, you know, you can call me the Land Police Department. and let him know, hey, I saw Sonic over here on this side of town, but by the time you get there, he may be over on the other side of town.
Starting point is 00:05:09 So, I don't know what's going on, but Sonic the hedgehog. He didn't get any cash. That's a little, I mean, on behalf of Sonic, I'm a little disappointed. But, and I'm disappointed in the police, too. Unable to catch Sonic. What are you doing, man? Have you not played the game before? Then we have a home invader in New Mexico, who, a patient.
Starting point is 00:05:30 who apparently enjoyed shrimp, beer, and a bath, before apologizing and leaving cash. So this is in Santa Fe, New Mexico. Police responded to a residence after a man said that this man entered his home. And he said, hey, what are you doing in my home? And the guy said, ooh, hey, I've got my weapon here. I'm sorry. I just needed a place to, you know, clean up and rest for a little while.
Starting point is 00:06:00 and so I'm going to go ahead and get out of here now. I'm going to pack my gun in this duffel bag. And here's a couple hundred bucks because I broke the window to get in. Sorry. I mean, you know, I had to get in. And we'll talk to you later. Okay. All right.
Starting point is 00:06:15 And then he left. The homeowner said, you know, the guy was embarrassed, apologetic, and, you know, and he left. So, okay. No problem. Now, he got busted the next day. Apparently, he tried to take a lady's car in the church's fried chicken restaurant drive-thru. She was having none of it. He walked up and tried to take the car from her.
Starting point is 00:06:42 She just started honking and screaming, and he fled. He took off. He was like, okay, calm down. I mean, what are you? Sonic, the hedgehog? And then he was picked up by police walking down the road a little while later. And he said that he'd been caught in a blizzard on Sunday, and he was freezing. So that's why he broke into the house.
Starting point is 00:06:59 and he felt bad about breaking the window, which is why he left cash. He paid for it. I don't know what the problem is. Now he's been charged with aggravated burglary, larceny, and criminal damage to property for the break-in. And then, of course, dis-agravated assault charge for attempted carjacking.
Starting point is 00:07:21 But criminal damage, I mean, come on, now he paid for it. Come on, New Mexico police. Please. at least, you know, drop that charge. It'd be nice. That's all I'm saying. It'd be nice. Now, we have people being detained in New York.
Starting point is 00:07:39 As long as we're going down to the crime, we go from Florida to Mexico and then back up to New York. Anti-Vax protesters being arrested. Yes, I know. I know. This is the horror that they did. I mean, they're lucky to have just been arrested and not taken out to Town Square. 10 people were taking into custody at the AMC Empire 25 movie theater in Midtown. Ha!
Starting point is 00:08:08 You want to know what they did? They tried to go watch a movie and they were unvaccinated. Yeah, we're not having any of that, okay? The NYPD officers escorted several men out of the theater and into a van. As the protectors, they were chanting, my body, my choice, the vaccine, you won't force. That's a good chant. I mean, if you're going to chant,
Starting point is 00:08:34 you might as well, my body, my choice, the vaccine, you won't force. So one of the theaters shows protesters engaged in a sit-in in the larger theater seats. Well, talking to officers
Starting point is 00:08:53 as they're going to go ahead and get arrested. The Empire 25 theater requires all. guests five years old and up to show proof of vaccination masks recommended for all guests and those who have received one shot but are not fully vaccinated are asked to wear a mask while walking around the building masks can be taken off while guests eat snacks and drink during screenings and that is so nice of AMC's 25 Theater. Empire. I'm sorry, AMC Empire 25 movie theater in Midtown. That is so nice. And it's so nice of the New York Police Department. I've got nothing better to do than arrest people who are not vaccinated trying to see a movie. Just amazing times that we live in. Isn't it? Yes, it is. And how
Starting point is 00:09:53 amazing is it? Well, our government is now going to provide provide crack pipes to drug addicts to advance racial equity. Now, I'm not a... You know what? Do you want to... Drugs are free for everybody. Let's just... Can we just get down to that, please?
Starting point is 00:10:12 Everybody gets drugs, okay? So the Department of Health and Human Services are as part of their harm reduction program grant program. Wait a minute. Department of Health and Human Services, fiscal year 2022 harm reduction program grant program. It's a harm reduction program grant program. In the document, the crack pipe plan is described as the dispersion of federal
Starting point is 00:10:45 government funds for the slightly more anodyne smoking kits and supplies. Oh, oh, well, that's good. But a spokesman for the department said, yeah, the grant money, yeah, it's going to do that. going to provide the crack pipes. The kits are going to provide safer pipes for drug addicts to use when they smoke crack cocaine, crystal math, or any illicit substance. I guess what happens is the pipes, often used by addicts, it cause infection, cuts, and sores. And it's the pipes problem.
Starting point is 00:11:20 That's not the crack. It's not the math. It's not that. That's not causing the problem. It's the glass pipe that's causing the problem. Oh, okay. So the grant is almost worth $30 million, which seems like a low amount of money in today's world.
Starting point is 00:11:38 I would be happy to take $30 million off someone's hands, but it just seems like a low amount of money in this day's world. But the grant money has prioritized for selection if they promise, and the application process is closed now, to nonprofit and local government recipients, but they must promise that they're going to use the funds in
Starting point is 00:12:02 underserved communities, including where they are a large African-American and LGBTQ plus populations. That is so good. We've got to advance racial equity. Now, I thought that we were doing that. I mean, I know Philadelphia
Starting point is 00:12:18 just unveiled its Narcan vending machines in West Philly that are free, which is good, so if you're overdosing, you're going to be able to do that. I know the Justice Department is looking into whether safe injection sites for people to use heroin and other drugs are okay. Well, yeah, they're okay. Duh, they've been doing that in other cities around the country already, dear Justice Department. But apparently, San Francisco and Seattle, who have distributed these smoking kits in the past, and we've talked about it here,
Starting point is 00:12:53 they've kind of backed away from these programs in the last couple years and I know you're going to be surprised at why they've backed away from these programs but they've found out that giving these kits to people enable drug users wait what amazing times just amazing times you know a lot of people didn't even make resolutions this year and you know what I get it. But that doesn't mean you shouldn't still find a way to shake things up, whether it's by switching up your workout routine or going someplace new.
Starting point is 00:13:30 Whatever way you challenge yourself in this new year, there's no better way to do it than with a pair of Raycon wireless earbuds in your ears. I love my Raycon earbuds. The Raycon wireless earbuds are the best way to bring audio with you, because no matter how much you shake things up, you literally, no matter how much you shake it out. They're not going to fall out of your ears. Their everyday earbuds look and feel sound better than ever.
Starting point is 00:13:58 There's also awareness mode for when you need to listen to your surroundings, which may be few and far between. So you can take Raycons with you wherever you go. So if you have to listen to your surroundings, you can with the awareness mode. Optimized gel tips for the perfect in-ear fit. These earbuds are really, really comfortable, and they will not. Not budge. Trust me.
Starting point is 00:14:23 I mean, they will stay in your ears. You can shake it up, baby. I love my RACONs. I mean, I don't know why people would want to use their awareness mode. Because the point of me putting them in is I don't want awareness of what's going on around the world. I want to listen to what I'm listening to. Okay? That's why I have them in.
Starting point is 00:14:43 But, you know, if you have them in and you're using it, you want to talk on the phone and you want to use, you know, you want to use them for that and be aware of what's going around you, they are there for you. But I still, you're putting them in to make the rest of the world go away. They have eight hours of playtime and a 32-hour battery life
Starting point is 00:15:05 and their price just right. You get quality audio at half the price of other premium audio brands. It's really no wonder Raycons everyday earbuds have over 48,000 five-star reviews. Right now, listeners to chewing the fat, this program

Starting point is 00:16:05 So have you watched Reacher on Amazon Prime yet? What? Get to it. What are you talking about? I was only eight episodes. I have not finished it yet. I jumped in the other night. I forget when I started watching it,
Starting point is 00:16:20 but then I'm like, I think I've got six down. I got a couple more to go. I kind of saved the last two. It's really good. I really enjoyed the heck out of me. it and it dropped February 4th. It's already
Starting point is 00:16:32 renewed for a second seizure. Yay! So, Alan Ritchin, the star, reacted to, you know, the show being renewed. His post was, whoa, this is incredible. Unlike Reacher, who chooses to say nothing, I'm simply speechless.
Starting point is 00:16:49 In just our opening weekend, you've made Reacher on Prime, hashtag Reacher on Prime, one of at Prime video. Most watch show ever. That is insane. There are so many people I'm grateful to for making this show as enjoyable as it is, but all the creative genius
Starting point is 00:17:04 and unwavering commitment by all those behind this would amount to nothing if you weren't enjoying the world of Reacher. Thank you, thank you, thank you. It's already ranked among the top five of Prime Video's Most Watch series ever.
Starting point is 00:17:20 It's also one of the most binged Prime originals. And I guess in the first 24 hours, they you know people were binging all eight episodes which is pretty incredible because remember they released uh the the boys they did each week right was weekly releases we've had it with that all right i tell HBO drops a couple a week i kind of am okay with that i think maybe i feel like maybe that's okay i know they've got the weekly thing going with their big shows but you know i'll give you I get it. I get it.
Starting point is 00:17:56 And I understand. But, you know, it just kind of irks me that, you know, I have to wait. Okay? Just drop them. I see what Paramount's doing that with 1883. And it's just, uh,
Starting point is 00:18:11 just drop them. Let's go. I want to watch them. All right. I want to watch them on my time. I don't know wait, which I, you know,
Starting point is 00:18:16 obviously, I still watch them on my time. I just know that I have, they are going to drop once a week. And so like with, uh, mayor of Easttown, I just didn't watch for the last month or so,
Starting point is 00:18:29 so I could just binge the final four episodes because I just wanted to feel it. I wanted to be a part of it. So, you know, he goes on to say that Richson the Star goes on to say partnering with Amazon for season one of Reacher was a total delight. They had our backs every step of the way, and it really shows in every line and every frame.
Starting point is 00:18:51 So I'm thrilled we'll be working together again for season two, very exciting news and I can't wait to get started Reacher couldn't be in better hands. I will say that I did enjoy it. I don't know. I mean, Tom Cruise's Jack Reacher pretty good.
Starting point is 00:19:11 His two Reacher movies, really good. I enjoyed the heck out of them. And I enjoyed this Jack Reacher. Although Richson, I know that they try to make him this 6-5 guy and I thought, he says in the one episode he's 6-5. But in real life, he's only six, too. So the Hollywood people are really small because he makes, you know,
Starting point is 00:19:29 if they're making him look like he's 6'5 and he's this monster of a man. And he is a big guy and he works out, you can tell, you know, Mr. Flex. There's not a lot of us, you know, that can flex like that on TV. And, you know, I mean, you know that. But he's only 6-2. Okay, he's not 6.5. Why is he lying? Why? Why?
Starting point is 00:19:50 It's a show, Jeff. They're just, it's just TV. not real. Okay. All right. I tell you, I did enjoy, I want Jack Ryan back too. Okay, I want that back. And I don't know that, I mean, Tom Cruise might be done with the, with the Reacher series, right? He's had the two movies, which I really enjoyed.
Starting point is 00:20:08 The first one was awesome. And I enjoyed the heck out of the second one, too. So, never mind. I liked them both. Although I like the first one better, I did enjoy the second one as well. Anyway, it was really a good watch, and I'll I'll finish it up this. Well, I may finish it up today. If you're listening live, today is the 8th of February, 2022,
Starting point is 00:20:34 and I just may get done doing this show and go down and have a little lunch and catch the final two of Reachers so I can, you know, give the full review on whether I enjoyed it or not. So far, good ride. And before I get to take a look at the Oscar. nominations. I see where Matrix Resurrection's co-producer sues Warner Brothers and blames low-ticket sales on HBO Max. The fourth Matrix
Starting point is 00:21:04 installment grossed $10.7 million during its open weekend, which was $10.7 million too much for that movie, to be honest. But he's blaming it on HBO Max. So we'll see. And I'm sure HBO believes that it's just
Starting point is 00:21:22 you know, hogwash and they'll win it. So we'll see. I'm not sure what the contract said. Contractually stating that the movie could be co-released at the theater and on streaming, so that may be an issue if
Starting point is 00:21:38 contractually it didn't say that. But streaming is saving your movie industry. And you better stop fighting for it. I'll tell you that. I know y'all want the theaters back and you're fighting. I mean, Should you be vaxed to go into the theater?
Starting point is 00:21:54 No, no, you should be able to go to see the movies in the theater. But to be fighting the streaming, that's what's saving you. And I wish they would have worked out a better deal with the movie theaters. The movie theaters think an awful lot of themselves. And it's time to take them down a notch. And I know if you're listening to me and you own a movie theater, I love you. I love you. I love it.
Starting point is 00:22:18 I love seeing movies at the theater. but you should figure out a way that you can get those top movies in there for the first couple weeks and then move on with your life and create other income streams for your theater because I think, you know,
Starting point is 00:22:39 then it comes to streaming for those of us that just want to watch it in our homes and not go to the theater. Yeah, I know, I know, sorry. Okay, so the Oscars, movies, theater, and or streaming. So the 94th Academy Award nominations are out. Best actor in a leading role nominated Javier Berraim for Being the Ricardo's.
Starting point is 00:23:04 Really good. I enjoyed the heck out of being the recorders. Benedict Cumberbatch for the Power of the Dog, which I have not seen. Andrew Garfield in Tick, Tick, Boom, Will Smith in King Richard, and Denzel Washington in the tragedy of McBed I love all those guys. I hate to see these other actors going up against Danzel, because Danzel's the man.
Starting point is 00:23:28 But I really think that Will Smith should get it for King Richard. He was really good. I did like being the Ricardo's, but Will Smith, King Richard, was really good. And it was enjoyable, and he played a heck of a part. And he should win that. Best actor in a supporting role. Clarion Hines in Belfast,
Starting point is 00:23:49 I really want to see that. Troy Custer and Coda. Jesse Pymans and the Power of the Dog. I guess I'm going to have to see the power of the dog too. J.K. Simmons and being the Ricardo's. Yeah, I guess. I mean, he's in all these shows. All right.
Starting point is 00:24:04 So, J.K., I like you. I love your characters, but, you know, you're in everything. Okay, so back off me with the awards. Jeff is not him that's nominating. I don't care. I don't care. You should just tell people, I don't want to be nominated. Just let me work.
Starting point is 00:24:19 All right, who's going to be the best actress. Let's see. Best actress leading role. I'm sorry, performance by an actress in a leading role. Jessica Chastain in the eyes of Tammy Faye. Olivia Coleman, the lost daughter. Penelope Cruz, parallel mothers. Nicole Kidman, being the Ricardo's.
Starting point is 00:24:46 Christian Stewart, Spencer. Those are all really good. I don't know who you give it to. I mean, Olivia Coleman is awesome. Wow. Nicole Kidman was really good as Lucille Ball. Christian Stewart, I'm told Kristen. Not Christian.
Starting point is 00:25:06 Okay, I don't know why you keep saying Christian, but it's Kristen. Okay? It's Kristen Stewart. And Spencer, I'm told she does a great job. And I'm told that I guess Harry is a little pissed. about it, which makes me like it, even though I haven't seen it. If Harry's pissed about it, I like it. And we have Royal News on top of Royal News, on top of Royal News.
Starting point is 00:25:31 I just talked to Chris Cruz last night as I was leaving the studios. We have to, we'll do another special, another quick Royals special. I don't know when I'll drop it, but he and are going to sit down and talk Royal News because there's so much going on with the Royals. So if you're a lover of the Royal, or at least, you know, a fan of the way we react and talk about it. We're going to be sitting down and doing that soon because there's a lot of news happening in Royal Land.
Starting point is 00:25:59 In fact, that just made me the time. A lot of news happening in Royal Land. Marshall's buyers travel far and wide, hustling for great deals on amazing gifts, so you don't have to. They've bagged this season's Italian leather handbags. Designer. Handpicked the finest sweaters from the rest.
Starting point is 00:26:34 Ooh, cashmere. Landed makeup pallets from the brands you love. Rushes too. And hustled all those wishless topping toys. So plush. Our buyers have got you covered. Marshals, we get the deals. You gift the good stuff.
Starting point is 00:26:50 You know, I'm not sure how this Rogan thing ends. I was originally thinking that once he bent the knee, it was over, right? They're blood in the water. Once you bend the knee, there's blood in the water. They're not going to stop. It's not about getting an apology. Well, it is. It's about getting you to apologize.
Starting point is 00:27:07 And then if you apologize, it's not about forgiving you. It's about, oh, they apologize. That means they know they were wrong. And there's blood in the water and they continue to attack. But now, you know, I don't know. I'm kind of torn because, you know, if you hear broadcasters not defending Joe Rogan and his show, those are broadcasters that do not both. believe in free speech that are trying to, I don't know what they're trying to do. It's just
Starting point is 00:27:39 ridiculous. It's one thing. You know, I saw a headline talking about Howard Stern facing cancellation after racism accusations. Look, Stern, all of us did shows forever, and especially guys like Stern and other huge broadcasters, you know, like myself, did things in the past that are different and would be taken different today, times evolved. That's the way it works. So, I mean, it's one thing to say attacking like Stern, you know, would be attacking Rogan over his beliefs on vaccinations. Okay, I get that. That's fine. And Howard's just trying to create a war and get his name in the news. And it works. You know, good for him. But it's not, it's another taking him off the air.
Starting point is 00:28:29 I don't think you're going to hear Howard being for that. I'm pretty sure you're not going to... I mean, Howard might even offer him a job and say, I'll give you a channel. It's all yours. It's all yours. You know what? You can have a couple of channels.
Starting point is 00:28:44 Just the Rogan channels, right? And it's all yours. So, I mean, we'll see. I'm thinking now that, you know, I know that Daniel Eck, the CEO, defended Joe Rogan, the Spotify CEO. He defended them in a town hall.
Starting point is 00:28:58 employees are wound up. They've been wound up since they brought Rogan on. And so I know that Neil Young, bless his heart, urged Spotify employees to quit their jobs. Get out of that place before it eats up your soul. The only goal stated by Akar about numbers, not art, not creativity. Well, his job is to post the things that artists and creators do. All right. If you're working for Spotify, unless you're doing a show or you're creating music, your job is to make sure that it gets posted.
Starting point is 00:29:40 Sorry to disappoint you. That's what happens. You make sure that the artwork is right. You make sure that it's edited properly and you go ahead and post it. All right. Did it get to the internet so everybody can listen to it perfectly? Good. Thank you.
Starting point is 00:29:57 Good job. Spotify employee. It's just agonizing to me. And on top of which, these people can be upset. I mean, whatever. They can be upset about whatever the heck they want. But to tell them to quit their jobs, I mean, they have families, too. You're going to hire a meal?
Starting point is 00:30:14 You're bringing them in? You're telling them, hey, quit your job? And I'll hire you. I'll pay you. No problem. I've got hundreds of millions of dollars that I can pay you. I don't know what you're going to do. do for me. You can make sure that, you know, my website
Starting point is 00:30:30 looks good and make sure that, you know, when I get a new streaming song, I can post it on my website. You can do that, right? And I see where that other site offered Rogan $100 million to quit Spotify. I mean, Joe's got a contract, right? And he's
Starting point is 00:30:48 already bent the knee and dealt with Spotify and dealt with them. He's okay with what they're doing, at least publicly. And so So, you know, he's following the rules that he was dealt with Spotify. Good for him. Is it going to last? I don't know.
Starting point is 00:31:06 How long is the deal with Spotify? I really don't know. I don't know that I've ever read exactly how long the deal is. It's always, you know, hundreds of million dollars, multiple year contract. I don't know. Rumble offered him, what was it, four years, $100 million. So $25 million a year. If, and I'm just, you know, Rogan's not looking to me.
Starting point is 00:31:27 for advice. But if I'm Joe Rogan, I think I do it on my own. I don't think I need Rumble, although they have the infrastructure already built, so it might be easier to do that or just take the $25 million, because he's doing comedy and he's doing fighting, broadcasting, so he's got a lot of other things
Starting point is 00:31:44 going on, no question. But to do it on his own, you know, he does a Rogan only fans account. Wait, that's somebody else too. No, he just does his own Rogan.orgon.orgon.com. Joel Rogan.com. And you just go there and, you know, you spend 10 bucks a month.
Starting point is 00:32:05 All right? I mean, okay. 10 bucks a month. You get one show a week, 10 bucks a month for 11 million listeners. See, 10 bucks times 11 million. That's a couple of bucks. I'm like math might be a little shady, but I feel like 10 times 11 million is not bad, but I'm not a mathematician.
Starting point is 00:32:37 And let's remember where all this started with Rogan was his misinformation on COVID-19. This is what he had the fight. This is what the fight was all about. He was the misinformation on COVID-19. I know now that we're supposed to believe he's racist. We're supposed to believe that he's transphobic, but it all began because he's, you know, spreading misinformation on COVID-19. Well, let's take a look at the COVID-19 headlines from today, today, the 8th of February, 2022. First headline, Biden officials trying to recalculate U.S. COVID-19 hospitalizations.
Starting point is 00:33:23 They try to separate COVID hospitalizations from people who test positive. but are in the hospital for other reasons. Huh. Next headline. The CDC is finally recognizing natural immunity. Huh. Next, exempting those with prior infection was always unfair. Now it's unscientific as well.
Starting point is 00:33:44 Huh. California will end its indoor mask mandate next week. Why are they doing that next week, by the way? I mean, why are you waiting until after the Super Bowl? That's just stupid. You got all these people coming into the state? Let's end it. What are you? I mean, that's just dumb.
Starting point is 00:33:59 Virginia Supreme Court sides with Yon on executive order against school mask mandates. Oh my gosh. Principals coach to prosecute maskless students. Wait, what? Children aren't as good at recognizing masked faces as adults study finds. CNN medical expert says, you know, it's time to lift the mask mandates. What?
Starting point is 00:34:25 Are you kidding me? So it seems like all of that. Those headlines, one, two, three, four, five, six, seven headlines all are in the window of what would have been considered misinformation on earlier podcast, YouTube shows, and radio programs. And yet now they're not. So where are we at? Where are we at with the whole misinformation thing?
Starting point is 00:34:53 What is and what isn't? Are we back to being able to have a conversation now or not? not because I'm confused on what we can and cannot do. And remember, I talked about it earlier, we talked about a while ago, but animals are now getting infected with Abakron. So now we've got deer, white-tailed deer. There's somebody joe. We have white-tailed deer on Staten Island, and I believe they're talking about animals,
Starting point is 00:35:19 that have become the first wild animals with documented Abakron infections. so I guess there's other animals that we believe have COVID but with not Amicron but these are documented so man if you're out looking for white-tailed deer I can't I can't write your own jokes and leave me alone all right you can email me chewing the fat at the place.com well send me some jokes on your jokes on white tail deer infected with Amacron as being the first wild animals
Starting point is 00:35:59 with documented Amacron infections. Write your own jokes, send them to me Chewing the Fat at the Blaze.com It's the matcha or the three ensemble Cajoforffauts Sephora of the fact that I just need to denishé who energize all the same. The form of standard and mini, regrouped,
Starting point is 00:36:28 and all ben. And the embellage, so beau, who is practically to give to them offer. But I guess I'd love these summer Fridays and Rare Beauty by Selena Gomez. I'm just understand. The most best
Starting point is 00:36:39 ensemble Cado desks of the Fours Summer Fridays Rare Beauty Way, Cipora
Starting point is 00:36:44 Collection and other part of Vite you see for a standard and mini
Starting point is 00:36:47 regrouped for a better quality of C4.C or in magazine So I see the headline
Starting point is 00:36:52 of an abandoned townhouse in San Francisco that talks about how it has no bedrooms and it's sold
Starting point is 00:37:00 for $1.97 million almost two million for this house so I mean I've got to
Starting point is 00:37:07 look at it right I've got to find out what they're talking about. Okay, so it's empty. It's got zero bedrooms, mismatch floors, boarded up windows, and a staircase that just might collapse on a windy day. That's the way it's described. So it is still in a upscale neighborhood.
Starting point is 00:37:24 So, I mean, it is houses of the hoity tooty. Or it's neighborhoods of the hoity tooty for sure. I mean, it's a wood frame home. It auctioned off on conservatorship. And it sold for 600,000 above the starting bid. So I'm surprised that it took so long to sell, actually, because right now, a property over 3,000 square feet routinely is going for
Starting point is 00:37:49 $4 million in this neighborhood. But this, I mean, honestly, it's just a knockdown. I mean, you're knocking it down. When you look at the pictures of it, you're not buying it. You might take the doorknobs. Maybe you take a few lighting fixtures. Maybe there's some
Starting point is 00:38:06 wood trim that's worthy. of taking and restaining and refurbishing, but most of the place looks like it needs to be demolished. We're taking it down. Maybe the window frames are worthy of something for a shed out back to remember the old place. But most of the, most of, maybe the doors are some old door that was shipped here from Italy in 1842. I don't know. but I'd knock it down
Starting point is 00:38:38 knock it down and build a new place but they're all connected you know they're just like these row houses and whatever hill I mean it's going to cost you a pretty penny you think two million for this dump is anything it's nothing because it's going to cost you I mean you're lucky to come in here
Starting point is 00:38:55 and knock this down build a new place and get it up and running for 10 million so you figure 8 million to refurbish it, get it up and running. So a regular place around that strip is $4 million.
Starting point is 00:39:12 You're already under for another 6 mil or so. So good luck. Good luck, God bless in the neighborhood of the Oity to Ointy. Now, those of you that listen to the show know that you need to check your should know. Let me rephrase. You should know that it's a good idea to check your email, whether it be your junk mail or, you know, your spam, whatever you want to call it, whatever they name it, wherever it's at,
Starting point is 00:39:40 you should check it. Because we just did that story not long ago where the lady finally found her email that had the lottery ticket confirmation in and she won money. And now I got an email, Chewing the Fat at the Blaze.com, from Yee or Yee, Y-E-E, Dear Jeffie, listening to Chewing the Fat has finally paid off. Here is the email I received. now I can move out of my dump and buy a hoity-to-dy-hoes. Thank you.
Starting point is 00:40:11 I mean, and this email says you're going to claim $5,550,000. So you're not really buying the knockdown fixer-upper in San Francisco, but you can get a pretty nice place for under $5,000, 550,000. I mean, you can move into the neighborhood that I just talked about. No problem. Pay it off at your place, no problem. Now, the email that Ye is referring to is, good morning.

People assume that I'm like this pervert. My name is Natalie Robamed and in my new podcast I talked to Allison to try to understand how she went from TV actor to cult member. How do you feel about having been involved in bringing sexual trauma at other people? I don't even know how to answer that question.
