When I got a great deal on a great gift at Winners, I started wondering,
could I get fabulous gifts for everyone on my list?
Like this designer fragrance for my daughter.
At just $39.99, how could I resist?
This luxurious will throw for my sister.
This gold watch for my partner?
A wooden puzzle for my niece?
Leather gloves for my boss?
Ooh, European chocolate for the crossing guard?
At these prices, could I find something for everyone at Winners?
Stop wondering. Start gifting.
Winners, find fabulous for less.
Blaze Radio Network
And now
Chewing the Fat with Jeff Fisher
Okay, sure there's COVID
Sure there's monkeypox
Sure there's
Marburg virus
But we have something else to worry about now as well
Apparently a widely used
Herbicide
linked to cancer
is showing up in people with a government study finding that glyphosate,
glyphosate.
Amorphopalus.
No, that's not right.
Glyphosate.
Glyphosate.
Yeah, that's what I said.
It's in more than 80% of urine samples from the U.S. children and adults.
Oh, okay.
So apparently the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention Program with the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey, which, I mean, who doesn't read every national health and nutrition examination survey, found that glyphosin.
Glyphosin.
Yeah.
In 1,885 of 2,310 urine samples.
Oh, okay.
nearly a third of the samples came from kids, ranging in age from 6 to 18.
The International Agency for Research on Cancer, part of the World Health Organization,
classifies glyphosate as probably carcinogenic to humans.
Oh, so, I mean, it's only probably carcinogenic.
So you'll be fine.
Don't worry about it.
Welcome. Welcome to Chewing the Fath.
All right, so I know today is Prime Day, Amazon Prime, holding the annual summer sales extravaganza.
Today and tomorrow, for those of you listening live, it is the 12th of July, 2022.
And they are expecting less of a feeding frenzy for their products.
And they also, you know, know that Target, Walmart, and Best Buy jump on the bandwagon of Prime Day to hold sales events as well on their websites.
So I know I'm going to, you know, maybe do a little searching around, see if there's any products that I need that are worth the price.
But I see a story where a lady, well, a TikTok user titled, at Martha infused, posted a video about her thrift shopping.
surprise. I mean, I love thrift stores, always have. I've talked about it before. I'm a huge fan of
thrift stores. I don't like necessarily, they feel like their thrift stores now are, you know,
have all great products and they're, you know, they're worth more than they are. But the real
thrift stores of finding stuff and finding deals, I love. And, uh, Martha found a deal. She bought a,
uh, coach bag for six-99, seven-year-old.
I mean, I said six bucks.
It's $6.99.
Okay?
So, you know, it was fine.
No problem.
So it was seven bucks.
But she posted a video
of what she found in the bag.
Now, this is what we joke about all the time of people finding stuff and telling us
about it and giving it back or, you know, why would you say something?
But if this happened to me, I would most definitely have to post about it because it's a fascinating
story.
She bought the bag and then it was, you know, mess.
a little dirty at the thrift store, but
you know, for $6.99, you clean it up, you got
a nice bag, right? And
so she tells us
what happened to her once
she got it home. Got this coach
bag at the Goodwill. Wait till I
tell you what was inside.
$6.99 is what I
paid. Look inside.
It's like dirty, right?
Right. So I thought I could clean
it up. Of course. So I start
working on trying to take this
flap out at the body of the purse.
Bree down there is an envelope in there with money.
Nice.
I have three children.
They will give my things to goodwill when I die.
So I am putting their inheritance inside all my favorite things.
This coach bag was given to me years ago by my husband's girlfriend.
Well, actually, I came home early from a visit to my parents' house in Connecticut.
She must have left quickly because she forgot her bag and shoes.
I carried this bag every day.
I wonder if my husband ever knew this was his girlfriends.
I carried it daily and I am giving it away because my kids don't want it.
So go buy yourself a new bag.
Love Martha.
That's outstanding.
And there's 300 bucks in the bag.
So she got, you know, 300 bucks.
So for $6.99, she makes $300 and a great letter and a great story about, it's amazing that, you know, they didn't get a divorce.
She wondered if the husband ever knew that she was carrying the girlfriend's purse around forever.
I don't know if the shoes fit or not.
I don't know the difference in sizes between Martha and the girlfriend.
But awesome.
There are some stories that I truly, I'm not sure I understand.
This story from Nevada talking about a family living with weapons.
The headline is,
Family Found Living with Weapons in Nevada's Children Museum.
Oh, okay.
Authorities say a couple kept a cachet of weapons
and lived with their two children at a Northern Nevada Children's Museum.
So, apparently, this couple,
was found secretly keeping a cachet of weapons and living with their two kids.
What was the cachet of weapons?
Okay, so they found an AK-47.
They found three handguns.
They found a pistol.
Isn't that a handgun?
Ammunition, knives.
I hope if they have these rifles and handguns, they have ammunition.
They have knives and a taser.
Okay.
What's the problem?
Well, they could have been reached by a child.
Yeah, they were their own children.
I'm sure they told the children no and taught them how to use it,
but it doesn't say any of that in the story.
So maybe not.
Maybe not.
The stash also included drug paraphernalia.
Really?
How bad?
Well, a bong and a used marijuana joint.
How dare they?
Those drugies, they've got a bong and a used marijuana joint.
Hunter Biden, the son of the President of the United States,
is posting videos of him smoking crack and showing how much crack he has prior to smoking at all.
But we're going to be pissed at this family for a bong and a used joint.
Okay.
A roach, a used marijuana joint, a roach.
Okay.
So anyway, nobody's asking the real question, all right?
So they realized that the family was living in the museum after the two-year-old child was spotted walking nearby unsupervised.
The Carson City Sheriff said it wasn't the first time police interacted with the man over his child being left alone.
But this time, the toddler's older sister gave deputies the museum as their address.
Okay, so wait a second.
They saw the child walking nearby unsupervised, but.
The child was with the older sister because the older sister gave deputies the address.
So the child really wasn't unsupervised.
I digress.
Authorities, along with the museum board member, then walked through the property and saw signs of people had been living there.
Sleeping bags, mattresses, clothes, and food were among the items found in the areas off limits to visitors.
Okay, so they were living there at the museum.
Homeless.
I would say that they were homeless.
I don't know why they were homeless, perhaps we should ask.
The man was the janitor of the museum,
and the wife was a museum manager that was living there.
Oh, maybe the museum isn't paying enough money?
I don't know.
How come two people that are working there with their family?
There are two children, at least two of their two children,
and they don't have enough for a home?
Okay.
Or an apartment?
The couple has since been fired.
Good.
We don't want any homeless people homeless.
So, also, the museum is closed.
I'm not quite sure why everybody is so pissed about the museum,
because the museum is board of directors is now facing questions about how was this able to happen?
What do you mean?
They've got people running the museum,
and I'd like to know how it happened that you're not paying them enough to have an apartment,
and they decided that they could live at the place.
I'm not sure that was a bad thing.
There was never any, as far as I know, bad reports about the upkeep or the what was going on at the museum when it was open.
I'd like to know that.
It's not in this story, though.
The Museum Board of Directors issued an apology and said that they were shocked and saddened, were they?
We are looking into the best path to reopen in a way that not only assures the safety of all our visitors,
but that we as a community can be proud of as well.
So the safety of all your visitors that were in peril
because this family was living in an area that the public couldn't go to
and had some weapons to protect themselves?
That's just amazing.
The museum is going to reopen, of course, after hiring a new manager, of course.
One parent who lives at this,
works at a nearby hotel.
Leo T-S-U-C-H-N-H-No, it's not, her last name is not.
Amorpha-Falus.
No, it's T-S-U-C-H-I-M-O-T-O,
who works at a nearby hotel, told the TV station,
oh, I wished I had the soundbite of this.
She will never take her children there again.
The entire ordeal has been a complete,
shock. Was it, Leah? Was it? I don't, again, like I said, I just, I don't understand. I mean, I'm sorry that
this family was living at the museum. I'm not sure, you know, what brought on them living at the
museum, but I kind of feel like nobody's life was in peril. They had some weapons, some
personal weapons. It was a cachet of weapons.
And they had a bong and a roach.
So that made them bad people.
Again, I just, I don't understand.
All right, let's go to the break room.
I need something cold to drink desperately.
I'm still stuck on the family at the museum.
They cared enough for this museum to live there and do their jobs.
Now, maybe they were doing their job crappy.
It doesn't say anything about that.
I just find it amazing how it was such a terrible,
terrible thing when it should have the museum this children's museum should have said hey what can we do
to help uh just i i i don't get it i know i know it's just me
hey long as we're in the break room let me ask you a question do you like a good snack

The Emmy nominations just dropped.
They were just announced.
The Emmys are going to take place.
in September, the 74th Emmy Awards on NBC, September 12th.
Now, a host has yet to be announced for the 2022 Emmy Awards.
Don't know who they're going to get.
Seems to be like we're running a little bit late to announce who the host is going to be.
Last year we had Cedric the entertainer, and the year before that, we had Jimmy Kimmel.
Not sure who it's going to be this year.
I don't know why Cedric wouldn't do it again.
I'm sure he's available.
I don't know that though.
He's a busy man, I'm told.

Squid Game was great.
I don't know that it gets best drama, but next to Better Call Saul and Succession and Ozark.

I guess you got to give it to Michael Keat
He's the main headliner
for that for Doapsick
And it was all right
It was our Julie Garner gets for Best Actress in a
limited series of TV movie
inventing Anna.
So they might take away the
supporting actress from her on
Ozark and give
that to what's her face?
No, she's not in there from Ozark either.
So they give it to
maybe the succession.
They got to give something a squid game too.
We'll see.
But they give Julie Garner that
as a best actress
in a limited series TV movie.
And then they'll take it
take it away for the other one. Anyway,

That's a lineup that, I mean, they all should equally share an award.
I mean it.
They should all equally share an award.
All righty.
So who died today?
Who died today?
L.Q. Jones, dead at 94 years of age.
A veteran film and television actor.
Producer of a boy and his dad.
Dog. Dead at 94 years of age.
Born Justice Ellis McQueen in 1927 in Beaumont, Texas.
His first film role in 1955,
Role-Wash-Walsh film Battle Cry.
He's one of these actors that was, I mean, he was in a ton of stuff.
I mean, just incredible film, well, 60 screen credits
and television appearances,
apparently died of natural causes
at his home in Hollywood Hills.
He's one of those guys that when you see him,
you'll know him.
You go, oh yeah, him.
That's right.
And he produced and directed movies.
He's a Hollywood guy.
So, anyway, you'd know him if you saw him.
LQ Jones.
dead at 94.
Monty Norman died at the age of 94.
Man, that is not a good age today.
Monty Norman, the composer who wrote the iconic theme for the James Bond films,
dead at 94 years of age.
It was a brief sickness, according to his website.
It's with great sadness that they shared that Monty passed away.
very sad his theme the first used for the 1962 doctor no was continuously used throughout the franchise
so i'm sure that he uh you know expected those checks to continue on
i bet they did uh the british lyrs started as a singer for big bands in the 50s he composed
songs for tommy steel and bob hope he later went to england's west end and pen music for
The 58 production, of course, you remember this, the 1958 production of Irma Laduz, which was fantastic.
The 58 production of Irma Laduz was, I mean, beyond compare.
Other projects, I mean, he did stage shows of songbook and poppy.
He did other movies, the two faces of Dr. Jekyll, the day the Earth caught fire.
Now, he also got in trouble in the early, late 90s, early 2000s.
Um, he alleged and that he owned the theme for, uh,
uh, James Bond.
And he sued the times of London for libel over a story that argued Norman's claim that he was the real composer.
He won that case.
Uh, that he was a, in 2001, think how much he would have gotten today.
He won in 2001, 30,000 euros, a whole 30,000 euros.
A whole 30,000 euros.
So he had a daughter with his first wife and then he, you know, was with his second wife.
When I say they had a daughter with the first wife, that means the second wife moved in as well.
Monty Norman, iconic composer, specifically for the James Bond films, dead at 94 years of age.
Who else?
Oriana Pepper of Bury St. Edmund.
Suffolk.
She was 21. Very sad.
She died five days after she was bitten
by a mosquito.
Oh, wait.
What? Yeah.
She
was given antibiotics,
and then she was driven back to the hospital
because she just collapsed after that.
Medical cause of her death was recorded
as septic embolocles.
in the brain, which are obstructions of blood vessels with an infection by bacteria called
staphocococcalos. Aruris? This sounds exactly what it is. And an insect bite. No,
it's not. Amorphophalus. An insect bite to the forehead. Wow. A serious infection caused by a
mosquito. Holy cow. Wear your bug repellent. Where your bug repellent. Okay.
Anyway, Oriana Pepper.
Dead at the age of 21 years of age.
And when I say, who died today?
She died almost a year ago.
In fact, today is the 12th of July,
and she died the 12th of July 2021.
So it was a year ago.
So I'm not sure why we're revisiting this case,
because I guess they didn't like the idea of what she died of.
And so the,
So the medical examiner said that it was an unfortunate tragedy for a young lady who clearly had a wonderful career ahead of her.
So the family has set up a scholarship to encourage other women pilots to enter the profession, working with the British Women Pilots Association in honor of Miss Pepper's memory.
So that's sweet, right?
Of course it is.
Oriano Pepper.
Dead at the age of 21.
Rest in peace.
Then we have an unidentified swimmer who died.
Rest in peace to unidentified swimmer.
And Iowa Beach is closed because of a rare life-threatening infection of the brain
was confirmed in a very,
visitor who recently went swimming there.
So look, the closure is a precautionary response to a confirmed infection of the
Nagyllaria Fowlerly, better known as...
Naglaria Fowlery.
Yeah, that's what I said.
It's a microscopic single-celled free-living amoeba that can cause a rare life-threatening
infection of the brain called.
primary amoebic meningoencephalitis.
Pam.
It's called Pam.
So, if you catch...
Naglaria Fowlery.
Could lead to Pam,
which is primary amoebic meningoencephalitis.
Exactly.
So it really isn't rest in peace yet
because the unideast.
identified confirmed visitor has only been diagnosed with having this disease.
So only, you know, 154 known cases have been identified in the United States.
Now, you know, in 2021, North Texas child died after contracting the rare brain-eating amoeba.
So a 10-year-old Texas girl died in 2019 after a baby.
battling the brain, eating amoeba.
So I guess you can still survive.
But it takes quite a bit.
So it's not rest in peace yet.
I apologize, unidentified swimmer from Missouri.
But good luck.
God bless.
You may have heard of the sex cult nexium
and the famous actress who went to prison for her involvement, Alison Mack.
But she's never told her side of the story until now.
People assume that I'm like this pervert.
My name is Natalie Robamed, and in my minding.
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.
Allison after Nexium from CBC's Uncover is available now on Spotify.
Okay, let's talk about mom and dad fighting for a little bit.
Not the real mom and dad, but let's say police departments.
I see, we've got a couple of great stories from police officers in the police.
Police in the news.
It's not really, well, it is crime.
It is, you know what?
It is crime.
So a police officer in Apopka, Florida,
was pulled over for reckless driving.
And you know what?
Big surprise, he was drunk.
So somebody reported reckless driving of this police vehicle.
And another police department pulled him over.
and he was slurring his words.
They thought he was having some sort of medical issue.
And then now he said he said he had allergies
and he'd taken some Benadryl and he wasn't feeling well.
And then he couldn't barely get out of the police car.
And then he said, oh, you know what?
Yeah, I was drinking.
Yeah, I was drinking.
I had consumed about three tall boys of Medello at home.
Never mind those empty cantators in my.
car so they show him getting out of his car giving the police officers his weapon and good luck being a
police officer at the old apaca police department anymore as you're arrested for d u i then we have
two police officers in georgia arguing with each other a well a sheriff a county sheriff and a local
police officer of hiawasi so apparently what
happens is and these two guys have gotten into it before,
Hiawasi Police Department,
when they go to pull people over,
people don't pull over until they get outside of the city limit.
And that's when the county sheriff steps in.
So I guess there was a time not long ago,
a couple weeks ago,
when Hiawasi was in pursuit,
and the sheriff called off,
the pursuit and the police department continue down with the pursuit and so that they've been
fighting amongst themselves over that and they probably don't like each other much anyway uh the sheriff
has said that uh they are not friends with the hiawasi officers in fact uh the sheriff tells
his deputies do not frattenize with hiawasi officers their enemies
I mean they're enemies of the sheriff's office, obviously.
But they got into it, threatening to arrest each other at a traffic stop
because the Hiawasi Police Department had pulled over a guy
and the sheriff came up and was taking over the stop and letting the guy go.
And Hiawasi police officer was unhappy to say the least.
Just inside the city, around here.
Just right here.
Oh, go pull the video at Valero.
You get on my traffic stop again.
I will arrest you.
I'll arrest you.
I'll arrest you.
I'm not your boys.
I'm not your boy.
Thank you.
And he storms back into the hot.
He is so pissed right now.
Thank you.
He thinks he's got him.
That's tremendous.
He thinks he's got him because he's on video telling him to get back.
but that's in the beginning you hear him so was it right here yeah it was right here okay that's my
jurisdiction no problem then you have a good day now we get out of here oh man that's good stuff
that's good stuff with mom and dad fight and of course now there's an investigation from the county
attorney's office and there's gonna you know the video as a result of a broader issue that needs
to have further investigation and you know they Iowa police department say look we strive for
excellence, of course, and they have jurisdiction if the infraction started inside their city limits.
And the sheriff is like, well, you know, if it happens outside of your city limits,
it's my jurisdiction. And I'll arrest you. I know it's not fun when mom and dad's fight.
I got it. But I don't know. It's a little.
little. That's a little funny. And then I see where two Flagstaff police officers went undercover
to massage parlors took their pants off and allowed themselves to be fondled eight whole different
times. And so now they're in trouble for that. They're, I mean, Homeland Security Investigations
has launched a month-long investigation to try to stop suspected human trafficking and sex trafficking
and prostitution. Huh. So how's that working out? Because
everybody was undercover and they're looking for sex traffickers and they're going to these
massage parlors. I wonder if they've busted a bunch of people for sex trafficking while this
has been going on. Well, no, darn it, not a single trafficking victim had been identified.
Now, I know it's wrong and there shouldn't be all of this nasty sex stuff going on at these
massage parlors.
No, really.
But, you know, you get them for prostitution, whatever,
but they're to bring in the feds for trafficking.
I just, every time we do one of these stories,
they never talk about the trafficking,
except that, yeah, not a single trafficking victim
had been identified.
Oh, oh, okay.
Now, the police officer claims, you know,
I didn't know where to stop.
I paid cash, I rolled over,
I took off my boxers.
I didn't know where to stop.
I just didn't know what to do.
So I continued to, you know, let the whole engaging and sexual touching happen.
Oh, okay.
No problem.
Well, it is kind of a problem.
And people are a little wound up about it.
But we'll see what happens.
I know that they said every day Homeland Security agents around the globe,
work to uncover dismantle and disrupt human trafficking.
Yeah, we know.
Okay.
And due to operational security and officer considerations,
the agency does not discuss investigative techniques or comment on internal deliberations.
Right.
Okay.
No problem.
One of the officers wrote in a report there would be a good likelihood that we would
encounter someone who was at the parlor against their will.
although they could never find one.
Huh.
So we'll see.
I know they believe that all these people at the massage parlors
should be treated like domestic violence victims.
Okay.
Because a lot of times they find drugs
and they're saying that these women can't be there.
You know, they can't leave.
So, okay.
We just know that when conducting undercover investigations,
it's vital to ensure that any offers to participate
and prostitution originate from the person who's under investigation and not from the undercover officer.
Therefore, officers entered the establishments under the auspices to obtain legitimate legal massage
and waited to see if the individuals in the establishment were offered to participate in sex acts for money.
There was an additional concern of potential language barriers that could prevent the officers
from just asking for the sex acts for money without fondling taking place.
We don't know what to do.
we were all jammed up
and you know I went in to try to
arrest them and we were trying to
talk at one time I
you know I placed a hand
on the back of the female's calf
and appeared to let them know
I was okay to solicit sexual
flavors that's it though
that's it
you know
what am I going to do we stocked out eight
parlors we walked into each one with our
recording device paid cash
rolled over and took off his boxers.
What else you're going to do?
I don't know.
I don't know what you're going to do.
You know, maybe,
I don't even,

this particular investigation was called
Operation Asian Touch.
