And now
Chewing the Fat with Jeff Fisher
Coming to a city
near you soon
A Dutch city, Harlem
near Amsterdam
is going to be the first city to ban
meat advertisements
for climate change.
Yay!
Now the counselors agreed to ban
these ads back in November
but officially notified
ad agencies this week
Don't worry about those Dutch farmers protesting plans to cut the sector to meet emissions targets.
Don't worry about the 95% of Dutch people that eat meat.
Don't worry about the 20% that eat meat every day.
They will become the first city, in fact, in the world to ban advertisements for most meat because of its impact on climate change.
All right.
news. They claim that this is going to outlaw advertisements for intensively farmed meat on public
places like buses, shelters, and screens starting in 2024. The move was approved by the city
council back in November, as I said, but now everyone is aware. And in fact, the one counselor
said, you know what, as far as I'm concerned, this includes ads for
fast food change as well.
So cheap meat from
intensive farming is what
we're looking to ban.
They haven't
decided yet whether they're going to outlaw
ads for organic
meat. So right now we're
just banning advertisements
and we're making it more
difficult for the
farmers to raise the
cattle that create
the meat that we all
love to eat. But
For right now, we're just banning the advertisements.
We're not banning the actual meat.
That, my friends, will be coming shortly.
So just be ready, because it's coming to a city near you very soon.
Welcome.
Welcome to chewing the fat.
So are you a victim?
Well, I guess it would be a victim of a quiet firing.
I mean, I think we've all known people who have been a victim of quiet firing.
You know, your boss is missing in action for much-needed conversations.
Your boss assigns opportunities you wanted to other team members.
Your boss can't provide clarity on why your coworkers are getting raises and promotions while you aren't.
You're placed on an unreasonable performance improvement plan.
your job expectations or workload changes without any input from you.
So are you, is that a sign that you're, you know, quiet firing?
Yeah, I think it is.
Yeah.
I mean, for sure, if you start getting reviews like you didn't get before,
that means your bosses are starting to document the paperwork that they need to kick you to the curb.
No question.
but, you know, as just, I guess do we call that,
we're calling that quiet firing.
I mean, for sure, I've seen that happen before.
I've seen promote to the level of incompetence.
So you just give people promotions until they reach a job where they can't do it,
and they'll either quit or you'll get them fired.
That's because nobody had the guts to fire them when they didn't do their job before.
Okay.
And then I see a story about quiet quitting.
Okay.
I guess that's the new way for people to explain why they are not doing more than the bare minimum to stay employed.
We've all worked with employees like that for sure.
You know, that's for sure.
There's no doubt about that.
You're still performing your duties.
but you're no longer subscribing to the hustle culture.
Yeah, I mean, I guess that's quiet quitting.
I don't know that that's quiet quitting.
I think that's just I'm going to do what the job entails.
And that's it.
I don't have to do all that extra stuff.
That extra stuff is for people that want to move ahead, and I don't,
especially at this job because I don't like it.
According to a survey in 2021,
27,000 U.S. workers of 27,000 workers,
Gallup found that only 36% of people reported being engaged with their jobs,
with the number of actively disengaged employees ticking upward since 2020.
Well, yeah, I mean, a lot of businesses want loyalty,
but they don't give loyalty.
That's an issue with a lot of businesses.
They expect loyalty, but they don't give any loyalty in return.
And if you want to keep that loyalty, you've got to give it in return.
It's just me.
I know, crazy.
And, you know, you keep getting, especially the jobs that you're getting two and three percent
raises.
Inflation is eight or nine percent.
You know, you're not keeping up.
So why are you working so hard?
I'm just going to do the job that I'm supposed to do and not do the extra.
Is that quiet quitting?
I guess.
I mean, I used to do it.
work with a guy.
It's one of my favorite stories.
That's kind of quiet quitting.
I worked with a guy that would,
he would come into the office,
open his office,
set,
well,
what everyone thought was his phone on his desk,
turn the little desk light on,
and then he would leave,
and he would go golfing.
And he would be out golfing,
and they would wonder, you know,
where it was you could,
and you'd call and leave a message,
and then he would be out on the golf course.
And ever so often,
he would
out on the golf course
he would call the phone
that he left on his desk
and so people
would hear the phone ringing
so they figured he was in the building
and then he would come back
after his golf game
and you know
he'd do the bare minimum
of his job
and then that was good
he always got his golf game in
always went wherever he wanted
his plan was and it took me a little while
to catch on to that.
But I thought that was genius.
Genius.
You just leave that phone on the desk and make sure the ringer's on and he hits the golf
course.
And then ever so often you call it.
So you call that number.
So it rings.
People think you're in the building.
You're just not at your desk.
They're looking for you.
Genius.
Is that quiet quitting?
I don't know.
That's kind of genius working, actually, in my book.
But there's a lot of people.
people that try to, you know, just do the bare minimum.
I don't know that that's quiet quitting.
I feel like that's just, I don't know that it's lazy.
It's just you aren't going to do the little extra that it takes.
And we all have worked with employees that say, I'm not going to do that.
That's not my job.
Well, I know it's not your job, but it's part of, you know, to get your job 100% done
and to get my job 100% done,
that job needs to get done.
Well, then you do it.
Or, you know, get the person who's supposed to do it, do it.
But I'm not going to do it.
Is that quiet quitting?
I don't think so.
That's just doing your job, right?
Without going that extra step.
So when companies want people to go that extra step,
they need to go that extra step toward you as well.
And I think that's where we're getting into the problem now.
They expect loyalty and give none in return.
And that just can't happen.
That just can't happen.
Otherwise, you're going to be looking for employees.
And where are the employees?
Every place I go.
Everybody's got to help wanted signs up.
Everywhere.
What happened to the people?
I mean, some people in my life, Brad Staggs, has made the case that what happened,
and we've lost people.
We've lost people and we're not being.
told because so many businesses have help wanted signs up and they can't find people it's not
they're turning down people to work which I think some companies are but they these other places
nobody's even applying and they're they're willing to pay you know whatever the whatever the
going rate is 15 20 bucks an hour you know whatever the deal is they'll you know try to work with you
on scheduling but nobody comes in to apply what happened to the people
Is that quiet quitting?
Maybe it is.
Maybe people are quiet quitting because they're just not out looking for work.
That's possible, I guess.
But if you are a victim of quiet firing, now that's when you need to wake up and start making your moves.
When you start feeling like you're going to become a victim of that firing because things are working against you at work.
start making your moves because it's coming.
All right, let's go to the break room.
I need something cold to drink desperately.
Oh.
Okay, at the time of this recording,
at the time that I'm recording chewing the fat,
the queen is not dead yet.
Okay, the family is jetting into Ball Marl and to Scotland.
They're all going to be there.
They even claim that Harry and Megan are going to show up.
That will be fun.
uh that'll be real fun but the queen is not doing well the doctor is on staff she's been fading fast
as uh you know recently i know that uh chuck went to church without her the other day
and she brought in both prime ministers the old one and the new one they went to see her she did not
go back to london for that uh and so i mean they came to her
so she's not doing well they're all flying in and then the whole family is gathered around
Charles is in back just smiling sipping tea waiting for mom to finally kick it so he could be king
something he's been waiting for since he was since he can remember since the world he was raised
for this right and he never got it so pissed and William and Kate are like man okay no problem
as long as dad doesn't keep it uh I'll be
and Kate's like, I'm going to be queen.
Kate stayed back, the kids are in school.
Yeah, you know, I'll be up there.
Let me know when she dies.
Okay.
I'm not going to hang around with the whole family,
just waiting for her to die.
The kids got to go to school.
So anyway, you know, as, you know, I'm a fan of the royals,
just because.
But just so you know, you know, if, as far as right now,
she's not dead.
Now you can say your prayers for the queen.
People are starting to show up at Ballmore.
I have more concerned.
They're all there.
I don't know where they're going to stay.
It's going to be an awful crowded.
Plus, this property actually belongs to the queen.
It's private property.
The other residences belong to the kingdom.
This actually is property of the crown.
And it could get crowded.
It's only a 50,000 acre estate.
You know, look, it's a working estate.
No problem.
The castle is made from granite on the property.
So it's 50,000 acres.
It contains a variety of landscapes.
There are seven hills of 3,000 feet.
Yeah, okay, there are the hills of Scotland.
The estate also incorporates about a 7,500 acre estate bought by Elizabeth in 1878.
So it's got another little adjoining estate.
Maybe that's where.
Maybe that's where Chuck and Camilla will stay.
I'm sure they're all on high alert, though.
I mean, according to this, they employ 50 full-time and 50 to 100 part-time staff to maintain the working estate.
I'm sure those people are all on call and maybe even some more now that everyone is showing up.
There are approximately 150 buildings on the estate, including Berkilla formerly home to Elizabeth.
the Queen Mother.
Oh, well, that's
used by Prince Charles
and the Duchess of Cornwall,
Camilla.
Then there's the Craigowan Lodge.
That's a place where they send
some of the guests.
And then there's six smaller buildings
on the estate that are led
as holiday cottages.
Yeah, Harry and Megan are going to be
lucky to be in one of the
holiday cottages.
you that.
The lodge, the one,
the Kregoran Lodge, is just a seven-bedroom
stone house. It's about a mile
from Ball Marl. That's a rustic
little thing.
It's going to get a little crowded
at the old Balmorrow Castle, but right now
things, you know, everybody will be
fine and sipping tea and
just, you know, praying
if they pray at all,
that the queen will be fine.
Charlie will be praying in the other direction.
I promise.
I mean, I'll be nice
and believe that he doesn't want his mom to die.
But on the other hand,
I mean, he's wanted her to die for a long time.
So that's a tough road for Chuck.
I mean, one hand over here, you know,
he doesn't want us, he's going to lose his mommy.
But on this hand, he's like, go already.
I want to be king.
Sick of waiting.
And so, and William is just like,
I mean, dad, why don't you just become king?
And then say goodbye.
and give it to me because nobody likes you you know that you're a douche nobody likes camilla
i mean sure you love her but that's you know good for you and so why don't you just become king
and then you know give me the crown and that way you could say hey you were king no problem but i felt
like my son needed it more and then just give it to me and move aside
It will be fun, though, that they're all on the same estate.
It will be fun.
Because you're going to have Charles there with the wife.
Cabella.
Sorry, those are the rules of the show.
You're going to have Andrew.
Is he going to show up?
I mean, he's on the outs, man.
After the Jeffrey Epstein stuff, man, Andrew, they just want him to go away.
But he's got to be there as much as his mom, right?
And so they all are trying to, you know, they've got to be together.
and they're sad for mom.
And then William and Kate,
along with Harry and Megan,
oh, man, it's going to be fun.
It's going to be fun.
So, I mean, I don't want the queen to die,
but it's going to be fun to see them all together
trying to pretend to be...
I mean, they're all...
They all actually will be sad
that mom and grandma and sister is going to die,
but...
Or has died.
but being together with all the,
with all their little idiosyncrasies,
crimes and hatred for each other.
Maybe it's just me.
Maybe it's just me.
Did you see, I was looking at a TikTok video.
I know.
The other day, and it was about a family documenting
their Universal Studios trip to Florida.
And, you know, it was,
went viral and they were all wound up,
had a million views or more.
And they were talking about how much it costs.
And I thought, well, you know, I've done stories
about how they're all raising their prices
and how expensive it is.
And then, but when you see it in action,
you think, I mean, how long can it last?
So this couple from the United Kingdom, by the way,
and they're probably back home, you know,
getting ready to mourn the queen, as a matter of fact,
they went to Universal Studios
and she, the mom, the lady,
documented it on TikTok just how expensive it was.
And she goes through their entire day at Universal Studio.
Pretty incredible.
She talks about one day at Universal Studios,
2179 for breakfast,
which they picked up at Wendy's, I think,
$27 in parking.
Then they got a refillable drink for $19.16.
And they bought some lunch at Universal,
$62.79.
And they bought one souvenir from Harry Potter's World, $42.60.
A little bit later on the afternoon, they got ice creams for 1976.
Mom said she got a coffee for $4.25.
Then they got dinner at a Burger King, 3639.
And the tickets for Universal that day cost $483.66.
They got bought fast passes because they,
They had two kids and they didn't want to have to wait in line at all these rides because
those, and not every ride gets the fast pass, by the way.
But those, the fast passes cost $396.
That's so for the total one day at Universal, $1,113.40.
One day.
Wow.
That's, when you see it in action, it's like, ooh, okay.
Uh, you got it.
Now there are a lot of people were saying, oh, hey, you could have, you could have, you
could have gone to
Portugal.
Stayed in a villa for that.
Okay.
So there was a survey done
by the home rental firm,
Home to Go.
Who doesn't love Home to Go?
And they found the most affordable
theme park in the U.S.
was Tropic Falls
at OWA in Alabama.
Now, if you're coming from the United Kingdom,
perhaps Universal Studios sounds better
then. Come on, kids. We're going to go to
Tropic Falls at
OWA in Alabama.
So if you're going to
go to Tropic Falls
at OWA
in Alabama, one adult
gets you a 2249
for a ticket,
7267 a night for
accommodations, parking was free.
So you're good to go.
Or maybe you just go to
Universal Studios.
You know, the least affordable theme park on that list was Disney World's,
Walt Disney World's Magic Kingdom, which is in Florida.
So according to this, when they did the survey,
you have to fork over $129 for admission, $25 for parking, $12680 for a nightly stay.
And I think that's even, you know, gone up now.
I mean, we used to, I lived in Florida, so, you know,
When we would go to Universal or Disney World, we would stay outside of the kingdom,
but it's nice to stay inside the kingdom.
You know, I've stayed inside the kingdom as well.
And it's nice because then it's all-inclusive.
But you're paying for it.
You're paying for it.
So, you know, you can fly to Turkey and stay at an all-inclusive hotel for the same amount of money or less.
Or maybe you go to Portugal for a week at Rennavilla, which doesn't actually sound that bad.
Giving a toss-up between Universal Studios and a villa in Portugal, we may be going to Portugal.

So we have a new iPhone 14 and iPhone 14 Plus that was announced.
The plus expands to a 6.7 inch device from the standard 6.1 inch version.
All right.
Good news from iPhone.
The new safety features, the new iPhone 14 allows users to contact emergency services
using satellite towers
when normal cell service isn't working.
I kind of like that.
The new Apple Watch can alert family and emergency services
when the user is in a car crash.
And that's special.
Find out we know where you're at all the time.
And, okay, thanks.
And they were touting the new AirPods as well.
I'm sure those AirPods are not as good as Raycon.
who is a sponsor of this program, by the way, by Raycon.com slash Jeffie.
Netflix was warned over immoral content.
Seven Arab countries, including Saudi Arabia and Egypt,
are threatening legal action against Netflix unless it removes material that violates Islamic
and societal values and principles.
They didn't highlight specific content,
but local media reports suggested the concern was about LGBTQ plus themes and characters.
Persian Gulf states have clashed with U.S. media companies over such content before,
like when they banned Pixar's late year from cinemas over a same-sex kiss.
Disney was close to buying Twitter in 2016, according to former CEO Bob Iger.
He said at the Code Conference, and no, I bet you that was riveting.
He said that they pulled out due to various concerns,
including finding out that a substantial portion of its users were fake.
Where have we heard that before?
So Elon, who was attempting to pull out a buying Twitter on an account of bots, replied,
Interesting.
Elon's case is still going on in Delaware,
and the judge refused yesterday to grant Musk's request to push the trial back four weeks,
So that trial begins October 17th.
Cineworld, we've talked about them getting ready to file for bankruptcy.
They finally pulled the plug.
So they are now filing for bankruptcy.
They filed Chapter 11 in Texas yesterday.
And I guess they were hoping for some kind of meme stock boost but didn't get it.
so they have now filed for bankruptcy.
Another headline news that we actually had medical amputations
carried out 31,000 years ago.
The fine that predates what was formerly believed to be
the earliest such operation by about 24,000 years.
I think we've talked about that one before.
The surgery of 24,000 years,
they said that they found the,
the remains where there was surgery done.
But these remains belong to a young hunter-gatherer
buried in a remote cave on the Southeast Asian island of Borneo.
The skeleton was missing the lower left leg and foot
with the tibia and fibula showing a clean cut
along with bony outgrowth similar to that scene in modern amputations.
researchers have estimated the individual underwent the procedure between the ages of 10 and 14 and lived until the age of 20 before being buried.
Very interesting.
It had previously been believed humans lacked the tools and medical knowledge to perform complicated medical procedures until the Neolithic Revolution roughly 12,000 years ago.
So that's certainly things change.
science and knowledge changes that's so weird how that happens things we thought we knew
but aren't true so I mean how bad you think getting your leg amputated now is bad
think about what it was 31,000 years ago all right I'm gonna take this stone and I'm
gonna cut your leg off through your bone and we're gonna hopefully you know if you
you're going to hop around on one leg
and good luck, God bless.
He lived for another 10 years, so good for him.
And speaking of things that change,
a teacher made a rare find.
She uncovered a mystery fossil
that appears to be older than the first dinosaur.
Yeah, so amazing how we
now have animals that roamed,
our species, that roamed the planet prior to
the dinosaurs. She said she was just walking along and stumbled upon a fossil. She said, I don't know what it is.
Oh, okay. So they believe that it's around 300 million years old, a hundred million years before dinosaurs ruled the world.
There aren't very many specimens from this period. So it is an incredible find, said geologists and paleontologists.
John Calder.
Yeah, no kidding.
It's likely from the Carboniferous era,
which occurred 80 million years before the first dinosaurs roamed.
Okay, roamed the earth.
All right.
This is early in the evolution of reptiles from amphibians,
and they're branching out.
Yeah.
No kidding.
So whatever the fossil is,
it's been carefully removed and packaged,
and the government of Prince Edward,
is set to send it to its next destination for further research.
So I guess the lady gets to name it or claim that she found it.
She gets nothing else for it.
I don't know.
Maybe give her, I don't know, a coupon to Wendy's or something.
Maybe give her the coupon for the new beer pizza.
I see there's a place in Iowa, I think, that was celebrating their new breakfast pizza.
They're partnering with Bush Light to celebrate the ultimate beer, cheese pizza, breakfast pizza.
So they're going to be at the game.
They're going to be at the big game this weekend.
So look for it.
It's topped with beer cheese sauce, ham sausage, bacon, scrambled eggs, green peppers, onions, cheddar, and mozzarella cheese.
It's turning – this company is turning 21 this month.
So it's almost like our breakfast pizza.
It's becoming an adult.
So they're going to be at the Cyclones and Hawkeye game this weekend.
So, all right.
Get your free samples.
Not to the dinosaur bone lady, though.
She gets nothing.

Well, who died today? Who died today?
Bernard Shaw, dead at 82 years of age.
Bernard Shaw, the lead anchor at CNN for over 20 years.
I mean, we all knew his name during the coverage of the Gulf War back at 1991 in the early 90s.
I mean, Bernard was awesome.
They confirmed his death that he died after complications from non-COVID-related pneumonia.
They were sure to point that out, which I'm not sure why.
But the complications from non-COVID-related pneumonia.
CNN launched in 1980, and he was the Washington anchor when CNN launched.
And he was the lead anchor for 20 years.
And he did presidential elections and Gulf War coverage.
And he was a big part of making CNN what it is today.
A different CNN from what it is today.
That's for sure.
But he was definitely there.
He retired at the age of 60.
Wow, that seems that's a long time ago.
In 2001, he retired at 60.
Wow.
He said he wanted to spend more time with his family and to write books.
in today's world he could do that and do a show
but he did a send off on air
I mean Ted Turner showed up and they all
he said that he hoped to be back
on CNN from time to time
he said on his closing show
I've teetered on the shoulders of giants
trying to measure up
awesome Bernard Shaw
I know everyone
misses him I saw you know
tweets from all the CNN people
funeral services for him
We're going to be closed, invited guest only and family.
In lieu of flowers, the family said donations can be made to the Bernard Shaw Scholarship Fund at the University of Chicago and the family requests privacy.
So Bernard Shaw, dead at the age of 82.
Rest in peace.
Now I see where one of our Who Died Today members.
what you make, who died today, you remember,
Gustav Arnell, the Bed Bath and Beyond leader,
who jumped to his death or was pushed by the wife,
but they're saying suicide.
So, I mean, I'm not accusing.
I'm saying it's possible.
They're saying now, yeah, he was,
we thought he was overwhelmed.
Man, he was under a lot of pressure,
and the lawsuit,
and people were he was going to have to lay off and close lay off workers and close stores.
So sure, we thought he was the man for the job.
He previously worked as an executive for Avon and Walgreens and Procter and Gamble.
But now, now that he jumped and is dead, he was, man, overwhelmed.
So we're just trying to make it right.
Are you?
All right, Bedbath and Beyond.
We got you.
We got you.
And I think that we can all feel just a little bit safer today.
All right?
Just a little bit safer.
Nigerian officials have intercepted 7,000 donkey penises at an international airport
after the smell from the packages aroused suspicion.
So we know that the 7,000 donkey penises weren't attached to donkeys.
So I mean 7,000 donkeys, you know, you'd notice those.
But apparently, you know, it's tough.
There were 16 sacks of donkey penises that were trying to be smuggled,
attempting to be smuggled to Hong Kong at the Murtala-Mohamed Airport in the Nigerian city of Lagos.
Sambo
Dangalada Dimma
The customs controller at the airport
Dangalada Gadima
He told the BBC
That animal parts were found in sacks
In the animal export section
They were being smuggled to Hong Kong
And 16 sacks
But customers
Customs officers
Said we intercepted the packages
The smell was quite pungent
Coming from the bags
Yeah
between the penises and the donkey skin
from Nigeria to China apparently smells.
So they're saying that the 7,000 donkey penises and skin
are worth an estimated
416,000 euros.
Wow.
I guess it's a big deal.
to use these parts in China
in their traditional medicine spells
I mean their traditional medicine
and so they remember
I feel like we
we did another story where they had intercepted bags
filled with donkey penises at the airport
not 7,000 though
7,000 is a big number
the pictures of
oh yeah because we saw the pictures of
original the original story back in, I don't know, a couple months ago, two or three months ago,
where they had 3,000 pieces of donkey skin and penises.
Oh, man.
Nastyness.
So the donkey dealers association of Nigeria.
And man, you do not want to mess with the donkey dealers association of Nigeria.
They urged the Nigerian government to prosecute.
those who engage in
indiscriminate killing of donkeys
and smuggling of their animal parts
outside the country.
Yeah, no kidding.
We've invested millions into breeding donkeys,
but smugglers are sabotaging our efforts
so the world cannot have enough donkeys,
okay?
And Nigeria, the donkey dealers association of Nigeria
are doing their part,
and they don't want any,
indiscriminate killing of donkeys and smuggling of their parts outside the country.
You know what? I feel like I agree with that.
I don't know that I care that they're actually breeding donkeys,
but I feel like 7,000.
So in the last few months,
we've lost over 10,000 donkeys in Nigeria
that we know of for their penises and their skin to go to China for traditional medicine.
I mean like no.
I mean like I'm okay with that being no.
But I don't know.
I don't know if I don't know if I've taken any vitamins or medicine
shipped to the U.S. from China,
made with donkey penises and or skin.
It's possible.
Tell me that you haven't.
Tell me that you have it.
That's what I thought.
You can't.
And now all I can think about is the donkey penis and skin cartel.
I mean,
We've got the drug cartels.
We're shipping stuff all over the world.
And now we're smuggling donkey penises.
The poor donkeys.
Now I say that.
And I, you know, now I don't feel so bad.
Because do I care that don't thinkies?
I do kind of.
I don't want to be on penis side.
I kind of, I don't want to pretend I'm on peters side here because PETA is going to be, you know, all about this.
There's no doubt.
I do, I guess, want to say that I'm on the side of the donkey dealers association of Nigeria.
I think I'm on their side.
I'm on the donkey dealers association of Nigeria side that we can go ahead and stop the indiscriminate killing of donkeys and the smuggling of their animal parts outside the country,
which means they're breeding donkeys for their own use.
stop sending donkey penises to China.
Leave them in Nigeria where they belong.
So no word on the queen yet.
However, we did get breaking news that she has tested positive for COVID-19.
So that's what the statement said.
So she's experiencing mild, cold-like symptoms,
but expect to continue light duties.
Yeah, so she's not even dying.
She's receiving medical attention.
Everybody's coming to Balmoral.
They're all racing in, and she's still going to be alive.
It's just COVID-19.
She's not really dying.
They're going to be pissed.
They're going to be pissed.
The whole royal family's together out there at Balmoral,
looking at each other, hating on each other.
And they're just going to say,
she's got COVID-19.
Maybe Williams makes sure Charles goes in.
It'll make sure dad, you know,
maybe catches a little COVID-19,
gets a harder version.
Just, you know, let's get this thing underway.
Both of them can drop and I can take over.
Now,
Oh, stop, Jeff.
