Thieves ring in America And it's They're wreaking havoc In the state of Michigan As we speak They're stealing cabins I know what you're saying

Wait Yes In Michigan An entire cabin has gone missing and they're blaming it on a group of thieves that have now made off with this cabin. The report says, look, suddenly the 12 by 28 foot cabin gone. Just gone. The brown cabin, burnt orange roof, white trim, and a covered front porch.

It was located on County Road 571 in Cold Springs Township, Calcasca County, before it disappeared. Now, I just want to say, I'm sorry that we have thieves stealing cabins. But the story, the headline is, the thieves stole an entire cabin in northern Michigan. Obviously, this person has never been to Michigan. All right. This is Michigan. Calcasca County is here.

Okay? That is up north in Michigan. but northern Michigan is up above this. Okay, this is northern Michigan. Those of you that are watching live, this is northern Michigan. This is Michigan. It is not northern Michigan.

Where this cabin was stolen is up north in Michigan, but not northern Michigan. And just want to set the record straight on that. Probably the only one that actually cares. But I don't care. I don't care because I do care. I don't care because I do care. Welcome to chewing the fat.

And for those of you wondering, I'm going to change my example now a little bit. This is Michigan. All right. And this is when I have to talk about the Upper Peninsula, Northern Michigan, I have to use this hand as the Upper Peninsula. You have to just pretend that it's only the two fingers and not the entire. entire hand as Upper Peninsula, but it's just the way it goes. Hey, Winsom Sears. You know her from Virginia. She gaveled the Virginia Senate in order with her high-heeled shoe the other day because someone

who they're calling a prankster hid her gavel. I've got my gavel, winsom. If you need a gavel, those damn pranksters in Virginia. Oh, so she used her shoe as a gavel. Oh, that's funny. That is funny. So if any lieutenant governors around the country that are, you know, missing their gavel because of the pranksters. Call me. I'm here for you.

Email me. Chewing the fat at the blaze.com and I'll gavel you in. I mean, I can just Skype in. That would be awesome. I will just Skype into the different state government as they're getting ready to... All rise! The session is now in session.

Winsome. Back to you. I mean, come on. now. I want that gig. So you ever, I don't know, get hooked on a link and you think, ah, that's kind of cool. That's what I just did. So the headline is the coolest urban design ideas from all over the world. And why I clicked on it, it's clickbait.

All right, you got me. And it's got, at least I don't have to keep opening up. It's a long, I can just scroll through the coolest urban designs. I don't have to next page link, click. which is agonizing. So I start scrolling through. And I see that they have, in Germany, discarded phone booths that you can get books in.

It's like a little library. You return a book and you take a book. All right. And it's kind of, you know, okay, I like it. It's cool. It's cool little phone booth. I love phone booths. I always wanted a phone booth.

This is the one thing I have never owned that I, always wanted to own as a phone booth. I don't know. Look at me like that. I love phone booth. But some of these urban designs are really cool. Like these swings at a local park where you can swing with your baby. You know the little four-seat thing where you have to struggle to get

your kids' legs in and you got to push them in there. Get down in there. You're going to swing. And you're going to like it. Those things. Well, these have a connection to a swing where the adult can sit on it and look at the kid after you shoved him into that thing and you can swing back

and forth with the kid instead of standing behind him or in front of them. That's a good idea. That actually is a good idea. Because you're going to get in this thing. Then they have a traffic light in Singapore that allows citizens to tap their cards. I mean, if you don't have a

card, you might as well, that's why you need a chip. Just put it in to add more time to cross the street. so if you're, you know, those darn handicapped people. Boop! And it gives you more time to cross the street. Oh, man, if you're at that red light,

how pissed are you when you see somebody tag that thing with a card? Ah! Ah, no! But that's the way it goes. In this, I don't know where this is. It doesn't say where this is, but this is a tremendous idea. The public bench that rotates,

so you always got a dry side you know you sit down on it but if you when you come up to it it's got the little crank on the side and it rotates around so it's always got a dry side that's a good move I like that a lot I like to see it

also they have a manhole covers and it doesn't say where this is at doesn't matter this is an Oklahoma City okay so it's here in America they have the manhole covers that are on the sidewalks with a map of the city.

So you know where you're at. The little dot is where you are at. You know, see on the map. You are here. It's got the little, oh my gosh, there's a show on this network with the, what's his face from upstairs? You know, what's his face? What do they call him?

Oh, yeah, Elijah. And he does a show on this, every night called You Are Here. I should this would be the This would be the face of his show A manhole cover with a dot You are here But I like that idea So you're walking around the city

You're able to see where you're at Then this is another park bench idea That is actually I like to It's genius Big I guess I'm a fan of the park benches The rails The park bench is built like a little train Okay

So it sits on a little track So it goes around this park So you can just you follow the shade. Huh? Genius. There's no opposite. I wish I had a thought of that.

So it's like a little train. A little train. What do you? Why do you not like that? Just plant more trees? There are plenty of trees, but you want to park. You want a little sun too at times.

You don't always want to be in the shade. My gosh. You ever go outside? Try to avoid it. So many tourist spots in Tennessee have the viewfinders. And I guess they have the viewfinders for the colorblind viewers, which I am one, but I never thought that they could have the

viewfinder for the colorblind. The Tennessee first introduced the colorblind viewer back in 2017 to help visitors see the beauty of the Great Smoky Mountains as realistically as possible. The viewfinder's lenses allow people with red, green, colorblindness to see colors as they have never seen them before.

I would actually, I want to go look at this. I need a colorblindness viewfinder from Tennessee. If you can just find one and mail it to me, that'd be great. Just sent it to chewing the fat. And then they show a building that looks like a computer screen.

That's a computer repair shop. That's not, I'm sorry. No. I'm sorry, no. They have bicycle racks that have small roofs to protect the bike seats from the rain. All right. I mean, it's kind of cute little thing, but okay.

All right, fine. Is it a genius idea for the cities? Or is it just stupid? I don't know. There's a fine line between genius and stupid. You can't quote me on that. That's a fact from chewing the fat. That's a fat fact right there.

There's a fine line between genius and stupid. in Copenhagen. They have public hammocks made of sustainably sourced material. So I can sit in these hammocks out along the little river there that are made from

people's trash, I guess. Great. Why not? It looks comfortable. A little hammock. All right, fine. Now they have this idea in the city, which I feel is cute. But you know,

know the grates that they have on the city sidewalks, especially if you're in the big cities, they have the grates. And someone has put metal pieces, like footsteps, across the metal grates so that not just females, but anyone wearing long, thin, high heels would be able to walk across those grates on these footsteps and not have to worry about, you know, their heels going into the grates. And they just walk around?

I mean, are they that dumb? If you're wearing heels and you fall into a grate like that, maybe you deserve it. Maybe it's just me, but I would say you deserve it. And where is this place? That's got to be some European place. Yeah, Dutch design. They've got little tulips, tulips seats that fold up,

come up around. Those of you watching just saw my hands go around the microphone. You can tell what it means. A little tulip seats. So that's actually a good idea. I like that. They should have these little tulip seats in America as well. Keep them dry.

You don't have to crank the seat for the dry side when it's raining. And it folds down to sit at the park. Little park benches, little tulip park bench seats. That's a cute little thing. I like it. In Japan, phone booth again. I don't like it though because you can't use it. They've turned phone booths into fish tanks.

And they have like a little goldfish store. swimming around. I don't know who cleans it. Who gets in there and cleans the old goldfish poop out of that thing, but it's got to be nasty in that goldfish. Go ahead. There's due to feces thrown all over the walls, the floor, the ceiling, and it stunk so bad. And that's what would happen when you open up that phone booth. It would be nasty. Goldfish are nasty. I don't care how small or big they are.

this place has a public punching bag on the streets cute they got the picnic table oh we got the picnic table for all in one picnic table all right so it's got the three levels and the one's open side at the end so if you're in a wheelchair you roll up to that end if you're a human you sit on the middle one and if you're a little if you're human

are you saying people that handicapped aren't human No, I didn't say that. But you thought it. The humans slide in, the adult humans slide in on the big side. And then the little ones down at the bottom, you guys sit down there. The little kiddies table, cute. And then they have a, I saw a picnic table that has the one, the top elongated for the wheelchair to roll up to it. But it's in the middle of a park.

I haven't seen a lot of, I mean, I know that, you know, if you're at a little bit of, you know, if you're wheelchair you obviously could go off-roading I get it but are you rolling up to a picnic table in the park I guess okay whatever probably cheaper to buy all the picnic tables the same way so don't get mad at me stop it's just a joke then they have shopping carts with little you know magnified glasses on the shopping cart so when you're pushing like so you can read the labels. I guess this is from the old country. I don't know why.

It's such a simple yet genius invention. Is it? This was in Budapest, built-in magnifying glasses. So they can read the products, yeah. All right, I'm done. There's no, oh, another phone booth. Hold on. What is this one?

This phone booth is now a Wi-Fi hotspot, free library, and has USB outlets to charge your phone. phone. Now you're thinking. Now you're using the phone booth. I want a phone booth. I want a phone booth right now. I don't want one of those little stupid Who TARDIS phone booths or whatever it's called. I want a life-size phone booth. What's it called? A phone booth? No, you know the TARDIS or isn't that what it was called? The TARDIS from the police call box from Doctor Who. Yeah. Thicker on the inside. Oh my gosh

You're one of those Doctor Who people You got the reference didn't you We're done All right before we go to the break room We gotta do Who died today Who died today I mean there's a couple of people

On the list of who died today Number one The Candy Bomber Dead at 101 years of age The Candy Bomber You know the guy that dropped candy on the kids in the Berlin air shift?

What do they call it? I called it an air shift. It's not an air shift. It's a air lift. Air lift. It was the Berlin airlift. Yeah. He died. You know, he was dropping candy out of them.

No one. Thank you. It's finally gone. We got rid of them. Kids are still walking around today. What happened to you? I was hit by a candy bar when I was a little kid standing in line in Berlin.

Oh, man. Oh, just kidding. Gail S. Halverson, he's been, I feel like, I don't know that he's, I don't know if he was here in Mercury Studios or if we just talked to him. I feel like he was here. He was a really nice man and sad that we lost him, really sad. So anyway, Gail S. Helverson, rest in peace, the Candy Bomber. Now, this person who died died at the hands of her brother.

And her brother killed her because she was fooling around on him. I know. I love you, sister, but no one else can have you but be. Look, I didn't say I was for it. I'm just saying what happened. Now, apparently there was an old girlfriend of his. I'll make sure I have this dirt bag's name, right. Jose Manuel Guzman admitted to killing his sister.

He only used a, you know, he just used a bat and a handheld electric massager. Okay. After learning that she had relations with another man. So apparently He moved back in with her sister A while ago And then, you know, what's the next thing that happens When you move in with your sister?

There you go And then he found out That she was Moving on Uh No All right, all right It doesn't

I mean, this is a murder killed her we're playing I mean not right I love the story of the old girlfriend though I knew something was wrong with him he was very possessive

oh did you did you think oh you know hey there's my old boyfriend who's didling his sister now is there a problem with that you think

oh my gosh anyway rest in peace Carla Chavez Di Ortiz. All right, let's go to the break room. I need something cold to drink desperately. Oh, my gosh. There's so much to that story

of the brother killing his sister after having an affair with her. I mean, she could have said no. I don't think that she deserved to die, but just saying. That answer is false. Just saying. Possible?

No could have been the answer. Carla could have said, Hey, Jose, back off me. Maybe that's what she did. I guess she did, yeah, actually. Now that I'm talking about it, I guess she did. And that got her in trouble, which should not have happened and it's very sad.

So again, rest in peace, Carla Chavez, D.R.T. Okay, got a couple of emails. All right, stop for just a second. I don't want all that dead air as part of the show. Okay, all right. Although, it might be funny, but no, I don't want to go right into it. We don't have the time. We're already at 32.

We don't have the time. All right, so I got a couple of emails, chewing the fat at the blaze.com. First response to my line, turn those machines back on. I got several emails. And all of you were correct, by the way. That's why the email, because they knew the answer. It was Trading Places was the movie when I asked what line that movie was from. And Brian, who tagged his email, Your Humble Servant, said,

Your Continuous phrase, and now he gets a little, starting to pick the show apart a little bit. So, okay. I mean, he says your continuous use of the phrase for those that are listening alive, then telling us the date is redundant. Those that are listening live know the date as they are listening live. You should be saying those who are not listening live would be interested in when the program is recorded.

All right, well, first of all, Brian, they'll tell me how to do my show. All right. I mean, I appreciate you listening, and you were right on the whole movie thing, but... The point of the bit of being redundant is that's the point. And really, no one is listening to this show live.

Get it. So that's the way it goes. Another email I got from Helen, who is a frequent emailer to chewing the fat at the blaze.com. Helen says, Jeffie, Jeffie, Jeffie. She starts a lot of her emails that way. I was surprised that you didn't mention in parentheses or I missed your mention.

Yeah, that was it. Okay, you missed it. Beating up on a couple of listeners today, maybe I ought to rethink this whole thing. That your girl Ruth from Ozark was playing Anna Delvey in inventing Anna. Yeah, I believe I called her What's Her Face from Ozark? Okay. If you can't, if you don't know that the. that's Julia Garner.

That's not my problem. All right? I'm telling you, I'm almost positive. I said, what's her face from Ozark? I don't know how you could have missed it if you were listening to the show. Maybe she wasn't listening live. Right. Thank you.

Thank you. That's a good point, which should happen if she's a professional listener in chewing the fat instead of just a passive listener. that I or I missed your mention. Yeah, you did. Okay. You missed me calling her

what's her face from Ozark. Okay. Oh, you know who we're talking to? I can't wait. I'm excited to talk to David L.A. L.A.R. G.I. who is the comedian. Oh, and entertainer, the impersonator.

Who sang for the monkeys in England that we talked about the other day. I am excited to talk to David because I reached out to him. I wanted to apologize because I kind of thought it was a stupid thing. But as I was thinking about him, the other morning alone in the shower, I was thinking, you know, David is a genius. And I want to talk to him about being that genius. I don't know that he believes he's a genius, but he is.

And we're going to talk to him next. And it goes with the theme of the show today. There's a fine line between genius and stupid. 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.

Hand-picked the finest sweaters from the rest. Ooh, cashmere. Landed makeup pallets from the brands you love. Rushes too. And hustled all those wishless topping toys. boys so plush our buyers have got you covered marshals we get the deals you gift for good stuff so the other day i did the story about the impersonator who was tasked with impersonating marvin gay for the monkeys in the united kingdom the trentham monkey forest in stafford england and david loggy

was uh the man performed the task and i reached out to to David because I wanted to apologize. We talked, we did the story, and we talked about, you know, why didn't they just bring in speakers and let Marvin Gay be heard? Why did they bring in the impersonator? And then I thought, David is a genius. And I wanted to, I didn't realize that when I first did the story. So I called David and let's get him on chewing the fat right now.

David, welcome to chewing the fat. How are you? I am very well. I'm very well. And you make me laugh because, You get told many things What genius is not one of them Oh yes

No no no I disagree Okay so I for I because originally I thought Why didn't they just plug in a couple of speakers And let the you know the real Marvin gay audio go That's just me Yeah originally I thought okay But then I thought oh my gosh I mean no show

In the world supports zoos More than this show chewing the fat I am a great purportor and supporter of zoos around the world. So you, sir, have just made a niche for yourself. Do you know how many zoos you can go to now and croon for monkeys to take care of business? I mean, that is genius. Genius, David. Well, to tell you the truth, I mean, you know, I don't know how it was time you got,

but it came to me in a very unusual way. Well, it came by one of the agents that I work with. Okay. I do soul Motown and reggae just a little bit about myself. I do soul Motown and reggae scenarios and corporate events. You know, nice places. I get to do hotels, restaurants, casinos, private events. Nice.

COVID must have hurt you a little bit. Oh, it hurt us very, very much. Oh, no kidding. We were, it was, it was, zero income, literally zero income. So when you're not making any money, that's not good, right? That's what you're trying to tell me? Well, I suppose, you know, I can have a wild idea about your budget,

and you probably got, you know, a tiny little, you know, tucked away. No, I don't. That's the problem. But I'm with you anyway. Anyway, David, so it came to you, one of your agents said, hey, I've got a gig at a zoo for you. Yeah, well, they said that someone, one of the clients had come across and said that they've got a forest and they look after monkeys and they want to do a kind of a PR, a bit of PR at the same time. See, you know, make you very tasteful.

So then they said they wanted Marvin Gay. And I've got a, you know, wide repertoire of songs that I do, some soul, some Motown. reggae and a few pops sons as well. Did you do more than Marvin Gay for these monkeys to have a little business? I did. I did. But, you know, initially they just wanted Marvin Gay. Right.

So I met it up with a bit of Barry White because I do a Barry White tribute. You may do some Barry White on this program today because I am a fan. You never know. Oh, Barry White. Somebody special. I love Barry White. And we did some Lionel Richie. All right.

A bit of Luther Vandross as well. Nice. A good mixture. They got about 40 minutes. So did they give you, now the pictures I saw, you weren't on stage. You were just mixing it up with the monkeys. Is that, are those truthful pictures? They are, oh, they are correct.

What they did was they've got a lovely, lovely forest. And then there's a beautiful open space where they have some speakers built into the ground, beautiful speakers, both speakers, you know, quick sales. So anyway, you know, that created a really nice, environment and there was people around. They invited a few people. So there was, you know, families and so forth. So did some of the, did some of the zoo people start taking care of a little business too?

Were humans taking care of business? There was dancing and there was great atmosphere. Great atmosphere. Absolutely great atmosphere. Did the monkeys, now, so did you think that it worked? I mean, did the monkeys start relaxing up a little bit, lifting their tails, taking care of a little monkey business? Well, we're not sure.

I mean, we have a joke myself and Matt, the main guy down there, and Matt says that he's got me on commission. They have nine babies. They only had nine babies last year. Their most have had is 13. So if per chart, they have more than 13 babies or more than nine babies, then, hey-ho, I'm on commission. I'm on commission.

But it's a beautiful idea, I think. Oh, man. You know? I would be, if I'd commission for monkey babies, I'd be over there singing every weekend, man. Just give them a little tune. Stop in and say, hey, I'm singing here for you. So did any of the monkeys try to come up and say, hey, David Lodgey, how you doing? No.

Well, what happened was being professionals, they gave me a briefing before in terms of sudden movements with the monkeys. and if the monkey starts to stare at you, then you've got to make sure that you're not forced into eye contact too much. So we had warnings. We had warnings. So I was very cautious while I was performing because, you know. If that monkey jumps on you, you got to. Exactly.

For whatever reason, I maybe hit a note that the monkey likes, you know. Yeah, right. So have any other zoos content? contacted you, David? Not as yet. We need to make that happen. Yeah, we need to make that happen. That needs to happen.

There are, I mean... What was so surprising was how many media people involved in media, TV... Because it's an ingenious idea. Like I said, we're pissed. We didn't think of it. James Colvin? Yeah, yeah. Yeah, he does a little silly TV show.

I've seen him every now and then, you know, James Corby. And the rest of them. So it's all as CBS News I heard as well. Well, I mean, first of all, they don't compare to the chewing the fat. All right, David. So I can appreciate, you know, James Gordon and that whole CBS News thing you got going on there. But we're talking to chewing the fat right now. So I'm a little tick.

Now, so you just did your whole act for like 40 minutes and you work on. commission. Now you've got to wait for the monkeys to take care of business and have kids. We need to work out a little contractual agreement better than that. You see what I'm saying? Well, I think there's going to be, it looks as if there's going to be follow-up shows in any way. Nice. After the babies are born, then hopefully we'll go back down there. Yeah. And this time, we can step up things a little bit more.

Absolutely. You need to put on a little bit more of a business show. So the monkeys take care of it. Absolutely. So I am in love with it. David, I hope you enjoyed it. Now, you do, you know, corporate shows and stuff. You're off, you're working this weekend. So we're post-COVID now, right? You're working now? Yes, yes, we are post-COVID.

Things are picking up. Things are picking up slowly but surely. So, yes, it's wonderful. How is overall life in the United Kingdom these days? Oh, that's a very profound question. May sound simple, but it's profound. It depends on what angle you're coming from. But from, say, my angle and my experience, life is okay.

Life could always be better. You know, and obviously we face and we have to deal with the government. You're running that damn prime minister out, I hope. That bastard. You know, opinions and don't. I know. I know. It's a lot.

But I think, as a lot. But I think, as I say, life is what you make it, or life is what you experience. So if people want to hire you, let's say zoos, I mean, this show is huge in zoos across around the world. So if people want to, if a zoo wants to get a hold of you to perform, do they just go to Davidlarge.com, L-A-R-G-I-E-com? No, I mean.

Oh, no, oh, no. I'm on Facebook. I'm on, I'm out. I am all over. YouTube and all over the Google. So if someone just type, literally types in David Large and goes their search, they'll find an email and they'll possibly even find a telephone number. Excellent.

Because I'm pretty open like that. But yeah, David Large at hotmail.com or you can hit me up on Facebook or Twitter or Instagram, even TikTok. I'm trying to stay up there. Nice. How are you with social media? You good? Oh, yes, absolutely.

Absolutely. You'll get plenty of love for us, David. No problem. Don't worry about that. Now, I just want to know what was bigger for the monkeys in the forest. Did they prefer Marvin? Did they prefer Luther Vandross? Did they prefer Barry White? I'm guessing, for me, if I'm, you know, a monkey at the Trentham monkey forest in Stafford, I want to, I'm ready to get down for a little monkey business with Barry White. You know, Barry's been out there walking and talking to himself for about four hours now. You make me laugh. Even as you said it, you can tell that you are a proper Barry White.

I am. I freaking love you. You lowered your tone as if it's first thing in the morning when you've just woken up and the voice is really deep. That's right. And also you've mentioned about the four hours where. Let the music play. Barry White talks about him. You're walking around. Awesome.

That's right. I love it. It's my favorite. I love it. I absolutely love Barry White. But anyway, what were they more excited to? Any particular artist? It would be difficult to judge, but I would say that they enjoyed the overall ambiance.

Oh, good. Excellent answer. All the love gurus. They enjoyed the entire show, put them in the mood. put them in the mood. I love it. And don't look them in the eye. Don't look them in the eye, man.

Don't look them in the eye. Don't look them in the eye. Don't look them in the eye. Did you see any monkeys that you thought, well? Well, I don't know. I mean, you know, to be fair, I'm more of a people person. So I tend to focus and then put my attention on the people that were there and interact with the crowd and make sure everyone's having a good time.

That is great. David, thank you so much. I know you're busy and I'm messing with you and I really appreciate it. I do think that this was a genius idea on your part to do this though because you're going to get, I mean, zoos around the world are going to be using David Largy now and they should. Monkeys, in fact, monkey population is going to go through the roof thanks to you. So on top of the salary, I think we work into a little bonus on every baby as well.

Thanks to David Largey. I love that. I'm thinking, you know, it needs to expand into all animals, you know, because they're just as pressure. Thank you. I was going to ask if any of the other surrounding animals, you know, like where the, you know, maybe the hippos or the orangutans or something that were taking care of a little business too, right? Exactly. Exactly. Who knows because I've sung at various locations.

It was, you know, the most out of nature. I mean, were any of the other. animals like this is for the these were for the one macaw monkeys but were the I mean did orangutans try to come over and crash the party and say hey I'm going to take care a little monkeys going on over here today

well I couldn't see I couldn't see but I know there was monkeys guys all right good excellent excellent I mean that's you got to calm them down with David showing up at the zoos David Largey thank you very much for joining us on chewing the fat today I really appreciate it man you be safe

So we talk to David a little bit about, you know,

life getting back to normal and how he was lost down to zero. You know, no business has his impersonating and performing business was there in the United Kingdom going down. I see where Microsoft has said that many U.S. employees now have to be back in the offices at the end of this month. Today is the 18th of February 2022. for those of you listening live. You know, there's another 28th.

As the COVID case numbers drop, I see a story where Americans are returning to restaurants and movie theaters. I mean, we want life back. That story, though, is interesting because it talks about how we, you know, Americans are returning. But then at the bottom of the story,

it talks about in Manhattan, 10 to 15 customers a day passed through the first class barbershop near Grand Central Terminal. It was 50 to 60 before the pandemic. I mean, he said he's cut his staff from 5 to 3, and I'm surprised it's not more than that. And he still has to consider closing unless he can renegotiate the rent with his landlord, which we've already renegotiated with you before.

We're not going to do it again. pay a year out. I'm sure they're going to renegotiate. Of course. I mean, what they have to, the guy's there, right? He's willing to pay and pay some anyway. He just can't pay what you want before. What you offer isn't the rate that it's worth anymore. So how about we think about that a little bit? And maybe that's his argument and they will work that out. I get that. And the CDC, God love them. You know him, you love them. I mean, really, the CDC. The, when you think of something that you trust a lot, top of mind CDC,

Dr. Rochelle Walensky, I can't take her anymore, but she signaled that she may, may ease mask requirements in the next few weeks. That's darn nice. That's darn nice of you, Rochelle. Let me ask you a question. do we care what the CDC says anymore?

I mean, really? Do we? Eh, you know the answer. All right. You know what it's time for? It's time for What's the Lie? Welcome to What's the Lie?
