And now chewing the fat with Jeff Fisher
We know that everyone is feeling a little bit of the pinch
here in the economy of 2022
or the non-economy of 2022
But sad news broke
Over the weekend that Twitter
warned its employees
That they might not receive
Only half
I mean, they might not even get half of their typical annual bonuses as Twitter grapples with economic uncertainty.
Oh, no. Oh, no.
Sad news, even for Twitter employees.
Now, apparently, Twitter executives fear that earnings are dropping because online advertisers who supply the majority of Twitter's revenue are worried that the war in Ukraine is preventing.
people from spending. Yeah, that's it. That's what it is. It's the war in Ukraine that is preventing
people from spending. Oh yeah, there's that whole thing with Elon Musk too. And we're suing him
because he's trying to back out of the deal of buying us. There's that little thing going on.
So anyway, just so you know, I know it doesn't make it any better for you. But it, you know, it does
make you feel a little bit better
when you're thinking that
you know, how are other people getting
along? Even the
Twitter employees may
only get half
of their bonuses this year.
I know. I know.
I'm sad too.
Welcome! Welcome
to Chewing the Fat.
So if you were flying on the
Ethiopian Airlines flight
ET343,
you may have noticed that you touched down a little bit later than you had planned on.
And that's just because, well, the plane overshot the runway.
And then it had to turn around and came back and landed safely.
And no one was the wiser.
But the reason that it missed the landing strip originally was because the pilots were sound asleep.
So they added on autopilot and they said, you know, let's take a little nap.
What do you say?
And they put that bad boy on autopilot.
And the air traffic control was like, hey, flight 343, you're not starting to descend toward the airport on your final approach.
What's going on?
You're staying at a cruising altitude of 37,000 feet.
and they had multiple attempts trying to wake up the pilots but to no avail then the autopilot shut off
it disconnected that's what happens the autopilot was you know set to go off and it's triggered an alarm
and it woke everybody up hey what's going on oh my gosh we missed our landing strip
and they said hey uh yeah we're something screwed up up here
We're going to be about 25 minutes late landing, but nobody knows.
Don't worry about it.
So they got everybody awake and working and came back and landed properly.
Now they consider this, you know, pilot fatigue.
And, okay, that's fine.
And look, what does this mean?
Does this mean that these people were in harm's way?
I feel like not.
I mean, all your flights are, you know, autopilot.
piloted most of the time.
And does this mean that we're going to start fighting for robots to land our planes?
Very possibly.
Are you going to fly on a plane where there's no pilots?
I don't know.
I mean, it might be just as safe and you'd probably land on time instead of being late
by 30 minutes because your pilots fell asleep.
The robot's not going to fall asleep on you.
You just have to hope that the robot doesn't, you know, disconnect.
Like today.
Here in, where I'm living in Fort Worth, Texas, it is storming like crazy.
We've lost internet.
Many places have lost power.
There's flash flooding going on.
And, you know, so do we, do I want a robot that is underwater telling me, we've got to land now?
Not really.
I really want a human, at least telling me, hey, things are wrong.
I don't know.
I just find it funny that, you know, you're on.
a flight. Aren't we supposed to, we should have already been there already. Yeah. And I got no way to
wake him up. Maybe, I don't know, maybe you call a flight attendant and you call the head purser
and say, hey, want to knock on the door and wake up your boys or your girls? I'm sorry, I don't
mean to assume that it's just male pilots taking a nap flying on Ethiopian air. Just a, you know,
just a thought that is possibly just males taking a nap. Because women,
would never do that.
Right.
Okay, so I want to explain a little bit of the rules to new listeners to chewing the fat.
Ten months ago, after the fatal shooting on the movie set Rust, which was a tragedy, the actor, right now just known as the actor, shot and killed 42-year-old cinematographer Helena Hutchins and injured director, Joel.
Susan. This actor
has maintained that he did not
pull the trigger of the revolver.
An FBI report came
out that said there was no way that the gun
could have fired without having
the trigger pulled.
His lawyers,
this actor's lawyers, are saying
that that is being misconstrued
for the testing.
Now, this actor
just had an interview
on CNN and the Chris
Cuomo Project. And I don't, I
I thought Chris Cuomo was gone, so it must be two separate interviews because the Chris Cuomo project, I thought, is separate from CNN now.
But the stories all say that he was interviewed on CNN.
And then it talks about quotes from the Chris Cuomo Project podcast to where this actor was interviewed.
Now, the reason I keep saying this actor, because since that time, whenever I say his name, or anyone actually, says his name on this podcast, a gunshot.
will be fired. And when you say his first name, you will hear a gun cocking to be fired.
And those are just the rules of the show. We implemented that 10 months ago after the shooting
of Helena Hutchins. And it's just what happens. So when I talk to you about the actor,
Alec Baldwin, that happens. Now, he said in this interview that he believed that Donald Trump
sent his lackeys to kill him.
Dude, you're just not that important.
I know you believe you are, but you really aren't.
Okay?
So he said that Trump called him.
In fact, let's go ahead and just quote, dear old Alec.
The former president of the United States said he probably shot her on purpose.
To me, that was really the only time that I needed, that I was worried about what was going to happen,
because here was Trump who instructed people to commit acts of violence,
and he was pointing the finger at me and saying I was responsible for the death.
1,000% I'm nervous that a bunch of people who were instructed by the former president to go to the capital,
and they killed a law enforcement officer, which, by the way, didn't happen, Alec.
But I understand that's the narrative.
And you don't think that I think to myself,
are some of those people going to come and kill me?
Well, I'm sure that you do.
But that just isn't the case, okay?
He went on to say that he would be out of the business
if it wasn't for his wife.
He's lost jobs because of this.
I don't know that he's lost jobs because of the incident on rust.
you know, the killing of Helena Hutchins and the wounding of the director, Joel Sousa.
He claimed five jobs he's lost, and he said he just got fired from another job yesterday.
Now, someone sent me a clip of good old Alec Baldwin from a show titled Dr. Death that premiered on Peacock, July 15th of 2021.
And in episode six of this particular...
It's a mini-series.
It's got like eight episodes.
And it's got Joshua Jackson and Grace Gunner,
Christian Slater, and Alec.
And it's a series about Christopher Dunstha,
neurosurgeon who became infamous
for permanently mutilating his patients,
killing two of them.
A good guy.
And the actor,
The actor is a part of this show.
And during episode six of eight,
the actor is listening to his voicemail.
And this is where it kind of takes a slam on the Blaze.
New York Times.
We're planning on doing a piece on Dr. Christopher Dunge.
Hi, Dr. Henderson.
This is my comitia of the Blaze.
Please call me back at your earliest convenience at 7.
What is the Blaze?
I thought about looking it up,
but then I decided life was too short.
and incredibly irritating.
Oh, so even Slater gets the line in and irritating.
And I thought about looking it up, but life's too short.
Isn't that funny?
Isn't that special?
Yeah, now that's before the Helena Hutchins shooting,
done by accident, of course, from Alec Baldwin.
Now, to be fair, he did go on to say that he's not the victim.
things for him are going to get better.
They're going to get cleared up.
He claims to be a thousand percent confident about that.
He went on to say that nothing's going to bring this woman back.
She died.
She had a little boy.
He named the son, Andros.
Everything we've said doesn't matter.
Me, my positioning, the press.
The real tragedy here is what happened to this woman.
Yes.
Yes, that is the real tragedy.
and it was caused by you.
So,
I mean, he is,
I'll just leave it there.
He is,
all right, let's go to the break room.
I need something cold to drink desperately.
All right, so I did a little movie and show watching this weekend.
I know it's going to come as a surprise.
one of the things that I watched
and I forgot that I had it
that it was up available for me to watch
was House of Gucci
with a Jared Lido and Lady Gaga
and Adam Driver, Al Pacino,
Tom Ford, Selma Hayek,
I mean, Jeremy Irons,
huge, huge actors in this show.
It was awesome.
I really enjoyed the heck out of House of Gucci.
And I didn't realize,
what I didn't realize
was that it was based actually on a true story.
So, I mean, Lady Gaga,
plays the wife of Marizio Gucci
after, you know, they got married.
So she's a Gucci by marriage,
but not by blood.
And in the end, she, you know, goes crazy
and has him killed.
Hires these two guys to kill him.
Am I ruining the story for you?
It's been out for a long time.
Stop. It's been out since last year.
Get over it.
Watch it anyway.
And so after they shoot him,
she you know she's still Gucci because they hadn't been divorced yet and uh they were they were separated
at the time you know and he would there was a big battle between her and him but um they weren't
divorced so she was planning on you know taking it all and then so the her psychic and the two guys
and her were all put on trial for his murder
Big surprise.
And they were all found guilty.
I know.
She just lost her mind.
So she got 29 years.
The one got 25 years.
Yeah, the psychic got 25 years.
The one guy that was part of the killing team got 26 years.
And the one guy that did the shooting got a.
life sentence in prison.
Then the character that Al Pacino played, Aldo Gucci, he started the company with Jeremy
Iron's character, Saeed Gucci.
And they, and the husband to Gaga was Jeremy Irons, Syed Googie's son.
And so Aldo Gucci had a son.
who was his stupid name, Pablo.
Right, Pablo Gucci, I believe, right?
It was Paolo, Paulo Gucci was Aldo Gucci's son.
And he was, you know, a weird character, not really smart, but he was eccentric.
We'll just call him eccentric.
Okay.
So after all this happened, Aldo, co-founder of Gucci,
dies of prostate cancer.
He went to jail for tax evasion and tax fraud,
thanks to Paulo because he had a deal with Marizio and Petrizza.
And then, and then after all of this, Paulo,
he dies in poverty in London in 1995.
I mean, he's just, I mean, I'm sure he just gave up on life.
His dad died.
All of this happened.
His company had been taken away.
He had nothing.
So in 1995, Gucci goes to be a publicly traded company because they pushed out Aldo and Marizio had been killed, right?
So under the leadership of this one guy, what's his stupid name?
What's his name?
Domenico, he'd been with Jeremy Irons forever, Saeed Gucci, forever.
He was always the manipulator behind the scenes.
So he brings in Tom Ford, who, you know, the designer who saved Gucci with his designs, no question, and saved the company throughout the years.
And now, you know, Gucci is like worth, you know, $60 billion now because of those two, right?
I mean, those two guys made the company what it was.
But as of this time, right now, not a single Gucci is in part of the company of Gucci.
I freaking love a stupid movie
I don't know why
and all I want is I want to
At one point
I was going to
I want there's a there's a these pair of these
classic Gucci shoes that I've always wanted
And I don't have I don't have because I don't have your money
But uh you know if you'd like to donate
To the house of Fisher
The House of Fat
I like the
The Gucci loafers
please that'd be very kind
thank you very much anyway well worth
a watch then I watched
a show called
Vanishing Act I think it's on Hulu
I think it's about this
what's her face Melissa Caddick
who was the Australian Bernie
Madoff fascinating
story and it was really good because it talked
about she just she just disappeared
right she took all this money
she had a Ponzi scheme with all these family
members and friends and she screwed
over all these people that you know
loved her and she just disappeared and now they found a foot well they found a shoe with a foot in
it that they claim as hers was her foot washed up on the beach but that's all they found they've
never they haven't found a body they haven't found anything and she just disappeared with you know
originally talked about 40 million and it's probably closer to 23 million something like that but it's
just gone and that was a cute little story about Melissa
saccatic because most of it is unknown.
So it was just them,
you know, her telling a story
that probably wasn't true
at all. But it was worth to watch.
It's like, I don't know, three episodes
or something. Then,
House of Dragon, House of the Dragon,
premiered last night on HBO Max.
Really good episode. I liked it a lot.
I really liked it a lot.
I felt, I went ahead and I watched
all the little clips pre-show clips on
HBO Max.
just to hear their little interviews and the characters.
And I really liked the first episode,
House of the Dragon, on HBO Max,
which is the precursor to Game of Thrones.
And I really enjoyed it a lot.
There was some really, really good scenes in it.
And I don't know if there was big boxing on DeZone this weekend,
a couple big heavyweight matches that was fun to watch.
So it was a, I hope you enjoyed your weekend as much as,
I enjoyed mine.
The only thing that was a little bit of a bummer from this weekend is that I had hoped to get an invitation to Jennifer and Ben's wedding in Georgia.
Yet, no, I did not.
Very disappointing.
I know that J-Lo and Ben had their big gathering in Georgia at Ben's Georgia estate.
They brought in, told all their friends to show up, fly in, and wait.
wear white.
Some of the friends were a little pissed that it was such a short-noticed thing.
Why they were doing it at Ben's estate in Georgia.
L.A. has some of the best hotels and venues in the world.
Why are you making us travel to Georgia at your stupid estate in Riceboro?
It's like 100 acres or something that Ben's got his estate there in Georgia.
And you saw the air shots, the aerial shots of it.
And it's all decked out.
And J-Loh was making everybody wear white.
I mean, Casey didn't even show up.
Ben's brother, he was too busy.
The mom was there.
She cut herself on the dock or something.
They ended up having to take her to the hospital,
and there were pictures of Ben outside the hospital.
Ben, I will say this.
Dude, I wish that I could smoke as much as you.
I do.
I want to smoke more than ever before.
But you're firing up those smokes, man.
Take it easy.
I'm just saying.
J-Lo, I can't believe J-Lo is letting you fire up
the smokes all this time. She's got to be on
you to quit those things.
So I was
a little disappointed that I wasn't invited
to the gathering on
Georgia. So
this is me. That's just me.
I expected a letter. I expected some
kind of invitation from
Jay-Lo and Ben. Maybe even to say
hey, Jeff, we're
sending a plane
and there's a private plane
waiting for you at Alliance
International Airport
is Alliance International. I don't think it's
International. Anyway, the Alliance Airport
here in Fort Worth and I just
go out there and hop on and we're we're expecting
you here in Riceboro, Georgia
for our wedding, okay? We're white.
You know, one could hope?
It didn't happen. I know. A little disappointing.
It's all. It's okay.
It's okay. Jen and Ben
their Benefer.
Don't
worry about it. It's okay.
Don't feel sad.
I won't be upset.
Okay, I won't be upset.
I'm just a little hurt.
That's all.
I'm a little hurt.

Congratulations are in order to Donna Kernaw, 28, took the top prize at the 2020-2-2-2-2-U.S.
National Pole Art Champion in Orlando, Florida.
Yes, the newest pole dancing champion.
a Brooklyn-based artist and dance instructor.
Congratulations.
She said she's still in shock.
Her heart is still exploding.
It happened a few days ago.
I truly feel like the luckiest person in the world.
Do you?
So I was a little disappointed.
I didn't realize this competition was happening
sponsored by the Pol Sport Organization on August 13th.
in Orlando.
She was up against 11 other finalists who came from an original pool of hundreds of competitors
and regional events throughout the country.
I may have been to a few of those regional events.
I don't know if I was or not.
Her winning routine featured an expressive carno as a marionette,
breaking free of her strings while performing a dizzying array of complicated pole,
maneuvers. She was frequently interrupted by audience applause. That's just how good she was and is.
And so she lives, she began her career in pole dancing nine years ago while at a college student,
the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. I loved it, even though I was not very good.
I kept working at it. And it's the most powerful thing I've been able to.
be a part of. I spend six to ten hours a day on the old pole as a professional dancer and
instructor at body and pole in Chelsea. She also performs at big apple venues like the box, the
slipper room, drum, house of yes, and 74 wives. So I mean, you could see her at some of the
top-notch places in the country. Uh-huh. Anyway, congratulations.
congratulations for becoming the world champion i'm sorry the u.s national pole art champion
uh she took away a gold medal and a thousand dollars come on a thousand bucks
i hope there was people putting money in the g string for that because uh thousand bucks is
nothing for as much work as she had to put into this
going through all the preliminary
artwork.
Congratulations.
I mean that from the bottom of my poll to yours.
Congratulations.
Sad news for you partygoers, too.
New Orleans mayor says,
look, if the police shortage persists,
we may not be able to have Marty Grau.
Oh, no.
Oh, no.
Now, that really sounds.
things because our
president,
President Joseph
Robinette Biden,
has said that
through his
monkeypox
czar
what's his stupid title
anyway, oh the White House
Monkeypox response
coordinator Bob Fenton
said that we're going to make sure
that we've got monkeypox vaccines
for distribution at large
LGBT events.
So would Marty
Graub
be a representation
of a large LGBT
event?
Is it possible?
It's very possible, but it won't matter
because if they have a shortage
of police and New Orleans
and that staffing problem still exists,
we're not going to have Marty Raw.
So that's
very, very, very sad.
New Orleans budgets for
1,500 police officers,
but its force fell below
1,000 earlier this year.
The lowest staffing level in decades.
Well, I've met a couple of New Orleans police officers in my day.
And they actually, after messing with us for about two hours in the middle of the night,
they let us go.
But it's just the whole point of messing with us for a couple hours was really agonizing.
Although that was a long time ago.
And maybe the New Orleans Police Department is much better now.
We can only hope.
So here's a story that is kind of agonizing to me, and it just really rubs me the wrong way.
This is America.
I mean, I'm broadcasting from America.
You may be listening in another country.
And thank you for listening to Chewing the Fat, no matter what country you're in.
Bless your heart.
However, this story, from Pennsylvania, from Bird in Hand, Pennsylvania, it's an Amish village, been around for almost 30 years.
When I lived in Pennsylvania, had I known about this?
place, I would have given them business.
Okay, the farm supplies grass-fed beef and cheese, uh, raw milk and organic eggs,
dairy from grass-fed water buffalo and all types of produce, all to roughly 4,000 private
food club members who pay for the high-quality whole food.
I would have been a member of this private food club.
Maybe I should probably see if I could just do it.
It probably cost me even more to have it shipped here, so I'm not going to do that.
But we'll see.
We'll see.
Maybe it's worth it because it really is agonizing.
So apparently, the United States government is unhappy with Miller's organic farm.
They are unhappy that the independent farmer isn't processing his meat and dairy at a U.S. Department of Agriculture facility.
Oh, okay.
So he contends that he's preparing food the way God intended.
whether it's God or whoever,
whether it's another, the Amish god.
Is there an Amish god?
Yeah, it's called God.
Okay.
It's America.
It should be able to farm any damn way he wants.
So they recently sent armed federal agents to the farm
and demanded he cease operations.
They're looking into issue more than $300,000 in fines.
That'd probably put the man out of business.
So they claimed, look, this is an attack on Amish.
religious freedom. Yeah, it's an attack on American religious freedom.
Making him even more independent, which I kind of like, he doesn't use gasoline or fertilizer,
so any of the prices that have been increasing because of the Ukraine-Russia conflict
doesn't affect him. So he's just continuing to do his stuff. And the government wants to
shut him down. This is agonizing. It's very,
really, really bad. I can't stand. I mean, you've got to be able to. That's what makes America,
America. You live your dream, the American dream, whatever that dream is. And they'll say, well,
it's got to be within the law and he's going against the law. Yeah, he's growing stuff on his property
the way he wants to. And people come by and say, yeah, I'll buy some of that from you. No,
problem. I mean, it's just ridiculous that this is happening. And I feel like we're saying more and more
every day. This is ridiculous that this is happening. And I just wanted to get better. That's all.
I just wanted to get better.

my man, Jack Pesabuk
posted
yesterday that OJ Simpson
cut his wife's head off on Twitter
and it's fine with him being on here.
And they're obviously talking about
Twitter, you know, canceling people.
And I replied to that.
He was found not guilty.
And that started a battle
on Twitter that I knew it would
and I was very happy to have that
happen. Jack even quote tweeted me
people were all wound up at me
and I will say that I am blessed
was
you know one of one of the replies

tweet saying

exactly what I wanted to do
I got an email from Greg
thanking me, and I just want to say, you're welcome.
He said, based solely on your mention on the show, we ordered from
Kogels. We got bologna, summer sausage, Polish, and Vienna's.
All are spectacular.
There's an old expression. If you're on the road and want a good place to eat,
look to see where the truckers are eating. And I don't know that that actually holds up
in today's world, but I got you. I know the old expression.
Likewise, look to a portly gent if you want good meat,
products wait what yeah i love the show
do you do you do you
oh you said you do so good uh yeah i love cogles man i am a cogles fan uh i was raised on the ring
bologna and the vienna hot dogs man i just i really i really want some
bad i almost ordered some after i received your email greg uh no doubt about that man i i could
I could use some cogole hot dogs either fried up in a frying pan.
Where else do you fry them up on or on the grill?
And I could do some cogo hot dogs.
Oh, man.
Cogel hot dogs?
Soft bun and Heinz ketchup.
Now, now you're living.
Then I saw a post on my Chewing the Fat fan club Facebook page from Tanya, T-O-N-I-A.
and I thought, that was interesting.
Her post was things to think about.
And you go down the list of things to think about,
it really is things to think about,
just as advertised.
What if my dog only brings back the ball
because he thinks I like throwing it?
If poison is past its expiration date,
Is it more poisonous or is it no longer poisonous?
Which letter is silent in the word scent?
Is it S or the C?
Do twins ever realize that one of them is unplanned?
Why is the letter W in English called W?
Shouldn't it be called W?
Maybe oxygen is slowly killing you, and it just takes 75 to 100 years to fully work.
Remember, these are things to think about.
Every time you clean something, you just make something else dirty.
The word swims, S-W-I-M-S.
Upside down is still swims.
Think about it.
Intentionally losing a game of rock-paper scissors is just.
just as hard as trying to win.
Remember, these are things to think about.
One hundred years ago, everyone owned a horse, and only the rich had cars.
Today, everyone has cars, and only the rich own horses.
Huh? Yeah. Yeah, think about it.
Your future self is watching you right now through memories.
Huh.
all right through memories in the meta or just through actual memories of being your future
self the doctors that told stephen hawking he had two years to live in 1953 are probably dead yeah
i mean they died well before stephen hawking no question about that if you replace w with
T in what, where, and when, you get the answer to each of them.
Oh, think about that.
What, that.
Where, there.
When, then.
Huh?
I know.
I know.
Things to think about.
Many animals probably need glasses, but nobody knows it.
Well, I mean, seriously, now that's funny.
But if you live with an animal long enough,
you know that your animal can't see anymore,
runs into walls, gets up,
can't have to look straight at the food,
that kind of thing.
So you do know, but you don't care.
