Okay That was much better than I had anticipated Go ahead Oh my gosh So President Biden Just

just pardoned All Americans convicted of simple possession under federal law and directed agencies to review how the government classifies marijuana. Now, as nice as that is, let's be clear, right now, there's no people currently in prison for the charge. So appreciate it. Thanks. No problem.

The executive order will give thousands of people who have been convicted of simple possession. from 92 to 2021. Yeah, there's no one in jail right now. I know, I know. But, hey, you know, it'll help to people that have already been, you know, out of jail now. They're going to be pardoned and they'll get access to education, housing, and employment. Oh, all right. Well, okay, fine.

No problem. Is there anything else, Joe? Hold on. Yeah, there is. Most of the charge. charges for this stuff are from the states, which he has no control over. So I guess he wants to just kind of, you know, tell the governors, hey, maybe you ought to do something about it. Okay.

So this is just his way of telling the governors to stick it up their rectum and do, you know, we're going to make it okay. And if you don't, you work, we are against us. Yeah. Yeah, that's what that means. Oh, all right. So marijuana currently, which is, I agree. All right, don't look at me like that. It's stupid.

I got it. Classified as a Schedule 1 drug under federal law, putting it in the same category as LSD and heroin. It's a stepping stone drug. Okay. All right. Thank you. And it's more serious than fentanyl and meth.

I mean, it really is. doesn't make any sense. I will, you know, so let's go ahead and, let's go ahead and change it. It's kind of dumb. It's kind of the plus, I mean, after a busy day, you know, there's nothing like getting ready to play a little call of duty,

packing a bowl and just you know, spending some time in the old man cave. Welcome to Chewing the Fat. Something that's not surprised. if you live in DFW, but apparently we're ranked pretty high in swearing across America. So there's a new study out that surveyed more than 1,500 residents of 30 major U.S. cities and required each residence to have lived in the city for at least one year to participate in the study.

The average age that the Dallas-Fort Worth respondents started swearing was at the age of 10, a figure that ranks as number two, the youngest nationally. 64% of Fort Worth residents said they've cursed in front of children. I mean, seriously, who has not cursed for their children? Why are you? Fort Worth residents rank as the number two population in the U.S. That's most likely to swear while experiencing road rage. Well, yeah.

I mean, I'm a road rager too, but I'm the road rage. you're in the car, right? I mean, I swear all the time. No, you're not. You have a son of a. And then, you know, you're calm. You're screaming in the car. But you're not, I'm not road raging.

I'm not chasing the guy or girl. But, you know, I'm not doing that. But I am road raging in the car. And of course you are. That's what happens. That's, you're angry. You're swearing. Uh, so the average respondent swears 21 times a day.

I mean, that's like standing on your hands, 21 time. Please. And I'm pretty good, because I do this show every day, and I don't really swear on the show. I give you, you know, a damn sometimes, the hell is maybe, maybe a bitch. You know, I don't say the F word because, you know, I guess people don't like the F word.

I love it. It's one of the best words in the, in the dictionary is one of the best words ever. it's a word that could be used I mean I feel like I want to use it now I mean you can be happy you can be sad you can be angry you can be loving you can be hateful

that word covers it all with just one word one inflection it's awesome my favorite word in fact if I were to do a comedy bit live at a comedy club

I would do that whole bit I'd give you the whole bit on the word on the word fuck that's my favorite word okay you go ahead and beep it go ahead I know we got to beep it I freaking hate that so much I am not the word police but I'll go ahead and beep it

just for you I know you've got family and kids you're telling me your kids haven't heard the word fuck okay all right fine fine but it is a magical word magical word you can use it you can use it when you're happy

you can use it when you're sad you can use it when you're angry fuck you you can use it when you're happy fuck yeah you can put it in between words I love it it's a great word

so anyway let's back to the study sorry I was just setting up my next two or three minute bit at the comedy store on my favorite word for it. I feel like I've done that bit here on Chewing the Fat before. Maybe you go back and listen to one of the episodes. I don't remember what number it is. We're coming up on like the millionth episode of Chewing the Fat.

So one of the episodes inside the millionth episode of Chewing the Fat, there's got to be a, I feel like I've done that bit before. Because it's what I love. It's a great word. I mean, it's a great word. And you could use it in between words. It fits perfect. It's a good word.

It's probably one of the best words in the dictionary. Okay. So over half of Americans, back to the study. Over half of the Americans use swear word substitutions that include fudge, shoot, freak, frick, frack. I mean, okay. Americans are most likely Where Americans are most likely to swear Are

Oh wait, this is taboo Oh, they're not most likely to swear at work See, I would say that's where I'd be swearing And where I do swear. Here it. So the situations that Americans are most likely Not to swear at Work in front of strangers

And at the dinner table I mean, it's your dinner table Sit the fuck down Again, a perfect word It works perfectly You're at the dinner table Alright, the fuck's up I mean, that's perfect anyway

And if the kids get lippy Shut the fuck up You're there, it's prae Anyway So let's go back to the rankings of the cities Okay, the number one the number one city for the number of swears per day coming in at number one

Columbus, Ohio. Rolls right off the tongue, doesn't it? I mean, of course you'd say Columbus, Ohio. You got it right. You were correct. That's just because it's Ohio. We're a state and a union. I mean, you know that as well as I do.

Hello. Number two, coming in at number two. We probably should have done the countdown. But there's a bunch tied. the top 10 here, right? One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten, eleven, twelve, thirteen. So, thirteen in this ranking here. The bottom two are tied for seventh place.

A bunch of one, two, three, there's a bunch tied for fifth. Actually, Dallas Fort Worth should be number one. DFW should be number one. They break us up. Dallas and Fort Worth, because Dallas is fourth on this list with 25 swears a day. Fort Worth is tied for fifth with 24 swears a day. DFW is number one, far and away. The Metroplex is number one.

We're almost at 50 a day. Hell yes. Oh, wait, sorry. Number two, Las Vegas, Nevada. Coming in at 30. DFW spits at 30, okay? Jacksonville, Florida, that's because Jacksonville is all. I mean, you ever been to Jacksonville?

You're swearing if you've been it. if you live in Jacksonville. Oh, shut up. It's Jacksonville. If you live there, you know what I'm talking about. Coming in at number four. Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, with 25.

Oh, Oklahoma City, Dallas, Texas, and Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, all tied for fourth. And Indianapolis as well. Tied for fourth with 25. But, again, hello, DFW is number one. far and away any of these cities.

San Francisco 24. Oh, yeah, you swear when you're stepping poop. That's a, hello. You're walking down the street, step in poop. Oh, man, shit. I'm just driving him crazy today. I feel like swear it. That's all I'm going to do.

I'm just going to swear. And see, what bad is. It's going to be, it's going to be beeped. And I know it. And I just, I feel like I don't want it to be beat. All right. But, you know, fine, whatever. blaze. I got it. I know. I got it. All right. Back off me. Austin,

and Austin, Texas is tied for seven with Los Angeles, California. Huh. L.A. and Austin. Tide for 21. Huh. That's weird. Washington, D.C. I feel like this is probably, I mean, this is a good little, a good little rule of thumb chart. But you know people are swearing more than that. You know they are. 25 times a day. I mean, that feels like nothing. I mean, you're just talking 25 times a day. I mean, I, in a regular

conversation with your kids, your wife, maybe a relative or two, let's say you're home. Let's just, you know, that's hypothetical idea. You're home.

And you're just working. You're sitting at the table. You're working. And you look up and someone in your house has a network news channel on. And the network, Network News Channel is showing a clip from some politician. And immediately you just say, oh, shut the fuck up. I mean, you just do.

That's almost, you can't stop that. That's going to happen. And so, I feel like you swear a lot more than that. But congratulations, anyway, to Columbus, Ohio. Be proud. Be proud for being coming in at number one on this list of rankings of, of a city that swears the most in the United States of America. Hell yes.

Does that count? All right, let's go to the break room. I need to get something, you know, cold to drink or warm to drink or whatever to drink. Because, you know, I'm sorry for, I'm sorry for swearing so much. I know I'm at work. Okay, sorry. I don't really mean it, though. Okay.

All, let's go to the break room. Don't forget Fat Bear Week still going on. It's awesome. Today you can vote for 164 versus 435 Holly, who is awesome, and 435 Holly is a fat bear man. Ooh, I've got to be careful. Sorry, I'm not swearing anymore. It's a fat bear.

And then you have 747 versus 32 chunk. These are two powerful battling fat bears. They should not be up against one another, because I love them both. And I really have, I feel like 747 needs to win that, but everybody will love voting for a 32 chunk. So that's where we're at in the brackets. And the other side, you've got, for tomorrow,

you're going to be voting 480 against 901 and 128 against 151. 151 is pretty strong and 901 is pretty strong too. So, you know, we'll see how the battle continues over the week. And then we have, then we'll be coming up next week for the, for the finals. Who's the Fat Bear Week champion? Out there at Catmine National Park.

And it's awesome. I love, I don't know if you watch the, they have the, they have the cameras up, you know, prior to Fat Bear Week. I mean, the cameras are still up, but prior to Fat Bear Week, when the Bears start waking up and they're going back to eat and they're at the river,

and they're just down in salmon. And at some point, there's just, you know, there's half a dozen bears in the river and they're eating salmon. And some bears are off to the side. They're like, ah, I'm not, I am not going out there right now, man. I'm just going to sit here and chill for a little bit.

You go ahead. You go get some of those salmon, but I'll catch you later. I got to finish this cigarette. I mean, it's awesome seeing those bears out there. And sometimes they just stand there in the middle of the water, like, all right, I'm just going to enjoy this water here for a little bit. I don't really feel like catching a salmon. And then a salmon will jump up and the bear.

No, go ahead. You can go to the next bear. I just want to stand here for a little while, okay? I love it. It's awesome. It's awesome. Good stuff. So just reminding you a Fat Bear Week still going on.

And I see where a judge gave Elon until October 28th to close his purchase of Twitter, delaying the trial that was supposed to start on October 17th. but it's still not a deal. You know, who knows? I mean, they're looking at the fine print. They're wheeling and dealing. Yes, I want to buy you.

No, we don't want to let you buy us. Okay, you know what? I'll give you this amount of money. All right, fine. No, I don't want it. You got to know what? Now I don't want it. No, you have to buy it.

We told us you were going to buy it, and we've now decided that we want you to buy us, so you have to buy it. And we're going to take you to court. You have to buy us. all right, fine. You know what? I'll buy you.

Tell you what. I'll buy you. Fine. You got me. No, we don't watch it now. We've decided that we don't watch it now. I mean, it's just agonizing. Somebody has to give in somewhere.

I don't know what. I don't know what's going to happen. That's great. I see where Twitter has their new bird watch campaign. I have not had it happen to me yet. with at Jeffey JFR on Twitter but they claim that they have a new thing

called Birdwatch it's a collaborative fact checking program ahead of the you know we've got the midterms coming up so heaven forbid somebody gives some misinformation about a candidate so I guess helpful notes

are going to be added to tweets by eligible users and that will be visible to everyone in the U.S. I guess that's already up and running. I have not had any helpful notes on any of my tweets. I'll be a little pissed, actually. I don't need Twitter giving me a little helpful notes. I tweeted what I meant.

Maybe that's why you won't get it, Jeff. It's the people that are trying to screw everything up. Okay, okay. So be on the lookout for Birdwatch, the collaborative fact-checking program. Who are the people that we're collaborating with, is my question. Who gets to, oh, I'm going to leave a little helpful note.

That tweet needs a little helpful note with it. No, you know what, it doesn't. I'll read it, and if I like it, I'll like it. And if I don't, I won't. Okay. And I will say, there's many tweets that I actually, you know, the Twitter timeline, if you're familiar with Twitter, you know, you can retweet, you can like, you can quote tweet.

And the liking part of it, you know, I see stories all the time. And he liked a tweet. You know, I like a lot of tweets just so I have it in a separate timeline. So I know, you know, I remember, oh yeah, I liked it. So I could go back and read it. That happens all the time. It doesn't mean I agree with it. It was just agonized.

We are in a strange place, strange times. And you know, we talked yesterday about Chris Cuomo's new show, Cuomo, on News Nation. And I did not realize it looks as though it's kind of a nightmare. I know. I know what you're saying, Jeff, it's Chris Cuomo. I know.

But you expect a little bit better. the guy was making the guy had a network show night time network show and now he's working for News Nation they're paying him a million a year I mean while that's not CNN money

I mean that's a pretty good wage I mean news nation a million a year I'm here for you I could do just as good a job as what Chris Cuomo's doing for you I promise you that so I see where they have a clip that was posted yesterday about him he's taking calls

calls. Chris Cuomo's taking live calls on his show at News Nation. That gives me a reason to watch. I want to call into the Chris Cuomo show, and I believe I will. We're going to have to come up, email me, chewing the fat at the blaze.com. I need a name. I guess I could just, you know, Bill from Florida, but it has to be Florida. Because I've got my, the one phone that I use has a Florida area code.

still. You know, you can take those with you. That's why you could have an area code from anywhere now. So I still have my Florida area code on my one phone. Now, for the 727, baby. And so I got to be from Florida. So we'll be Florida. I call the Chris Cuomo show because there's no way.

I mean, I guess it's possible, but there's no way that they're in delay. Just between you and me, shh, don't tell anybody. But if he's taking live calls on these shows, there's no way they're in delay. I mean, it's like one of the local cable access shows. They take calls from listeners. Those shows are not in delay.

You call up all the time. Hey, let's go to Jeff, Dallas. How are you? Hey, Chris, how you doing? Yeah, I just want to call. Man, I'm really digging your show. you're fantastic, you're great. Listen, I had a little thought for you.

Fuck you. No way they dumped that. That'd be awesome. So hey, Chris, are you rubbing your wife's bath salts all over you still? Are you done with that gig? You and your brother, hey, do you have nipple piercings like your brother? Come on now. I don't know, we got to do.

Something we have to do something. email me doing the fat of the blaze time. We've got to do it quick, too, because they're going to realize this clip's making the rounds, and they're going to realize they can't because it's got awful. They show his one floor producer with the microphone, and she goes to the caller. And I don't know if we're going to have this one caller because I'm told that we had a caller. We don't, but she really wanted to know about your tie. And that's even Chris says, you know, we'll have to go over to the next guy following him that's on the same stage.

I know he exists, which means he doesn't believe that his, that his floor producer actually is telling him about a lady who's a real person. It's just her complaining about his tie. Anyway, it's just god awful. I mean, just, you know what? It's almost like this show. It's just god awful. Wait.

Hey, you know, we talked about the chess scandal, the cheating scandal. I am in love with the chess cheating scandal. So we know that Hans Neiman has cheated a couple times. he admitted to a couple of times. They claim now he's cheated in more than 100 online games. Okay, we'll see if that's, I mean, okay, we'll see. But they believe, remember we had the story where they speculated that he had used his anal beads to cheat.

I don't know, you know, to be honest, I'm not quite sure how that would work. But he's got to be, he's got to have an accomplice, right? you got him an accomplice, and the accomplice has got to know that, all right, if I buzz the anal bead three times and then stop and then buzz it two times, that means you move the rook.

I don't know how that would work. That's a tough get for me. But I see now they're posted a picture of him going into, my man Hans Neiman, going into another chess tournament, and he's being inspected for, sex toy they wave the

wand around his butt claiming that they're looking for the anal beads this is just between you and me but the anal beads that I have been around

don't have any they don't have no metal in them so I guess maybe if you're using if there's an app that vibrates them, which by the way, I mean, that's a million dollar idea. Congratulations on whoever created the app for the vibrating anal beads. But so that, I guess maybe that has some metal in it to connect with the,

with the app. So I just don't, I feel like if you want to check old Hans out to see if he has the anal beads, you're going to have to do the prison inspection. And I think you know exactly what I'm. mean by prison inspection, aside from the wand. But, uh, you know, maybe it's just me. With Amex Platinum, $400 in annual credits for travel and dining means you not only satisfy your travel bug, but your taste buds too.

That's the powerful backing of Amex. Conditions apply. Oh, yeah. Man, I've been hearing this in my head. all night. So I have a request, but I need this to be played while I make my request.

And chosen one. Bad sign, baby, let's bring it down a little. You don't have to bring it down a little bit more because I was going to draft. So it's the Sopranos theme, if you don't know that. But if you want, if you're saying to yourself, man, what can I get chewing the fat?

Jeff Fisher as a present. Well, the Cadillac Escalade used by Tony Soprano is up for auction. All right. And I'm willing to take that as a gift from you, the listener of Chewing the Fat. It's a white 2003 SUV. It's up

for auction in Piper'sville, Pennsylvania. It was featured in the final three seasons. James Gandalfini even signed it. So it's got 110,000 miles on it. It's a little heavy. A little heavy. But you know, I'm willing to, you know, I'll look the other way.

The Miles. It's got a leather trim, power side steps, Tri-zone, Climate Control, Bose Audio System, all high-tech features available. You know, just like a, I mean, it's a Cadillac escalate. But it's Tony Sopranos, kind of like Esclades. So, I mean, you're really nice of you. Especially you.

You really nice of you. to do that for me. I don't know what it's going to cost. I don't know. Most people don't hear this part of the song, though. You want to know why? Because Alabama 3, they cut it off at the open. All right, that's fine.

I mean, that song was absolutely nothing until HBO. It was like, you know, that's the theme song for the Sopranos. We'll use that for that. Hit. Gone forever. Anyway, just letting you know. Go ahead and do that for me. apparently it sold back in 2015

for $119,77777 I don't know what it's going to go for now probably nothing but you know whatever it is I'll accept it generously from you thank you as long as we're talking about crime I mean Tony Soprano hello

the criminal that we love to that we love to love you know sherry murdered some people so So, I mean, he's Tony Soprano. He struggles with it. He's a bad guy, and he beats people up, and he kills people, and he hurts people, and he extorts people. But he struggles with it deep inside.

So that makes us like him. So I see Kevin Spacey civil trial has begun. He's accused of sexually assaulting Anthony Rapp, right, the 14-year-old actor. the Scrubs writer-producer Eric Weinberg has been charged with 18 counts of sexual assault. Alex Jones trial went to the jury and we know now that federal agents, or that's just what they say, federal agents have gathered enough evidence to charge the president's son. Hunter Biden, I'm not Bo Hunter. Hunter, I'm not Bo Biden with tax crimes and making a false statement about a gun purchase.

And because of a Trump appointed a judge, a Trump appointed judge, whack! A Trump appointed judge, whack! So will that happen? I don't know. I mean, I guess. I mean, they're laying the groundwork now to be able to say that the judge was Trump appointed

so that they could blame it on MAGA. And that's the only reason that, you know, they're coming after Hunter, you know, I guess. I don't know. I mean, do you think they're actually going going to arrest Hunter Biden, we're going to get the money shot of Hunter in handcuffs?

I mean, I would have bet that we would see Donald Trump in the money shot in handcuffs before Hunter Biden. So, you know, is it going to happen? I don't know. I feel, you know,

they've come after Trump is the most investigated guy in the world. And if they could have him behind bars and handcuffs now, I feel like they would have already. They can't, they've investigated them so much. It's very difficult for them to manufacture things. Now, you watch the movie My Son Hunter and you know the stories that we've talked about

here on this show about Hunter, Hunter, I'm not Bob Biden, and you know that he was part of the family business and everyone knows it. Everyone knows it. So do you arrest him? And what happens after you arrest him? Anything? Anything at all? I don't know.

I feel like that just, if that happens, it's going to be anticlimactic. You're not going to get what you want out of it. But, you know, I guess, I guess it'd be nice to see. It'd be nice to see at least the pretense of law and order coming out of this administration.

We'll live with that. We'll put a smile on her face with that, okay? Okay. I mean, it's not like we're the, I saw a story where there's a neighborhood in Oakland that is all wound up because the neighborhood has turned into hookers. Hookers just moved in. Yeah, we're living in these houses over here now. And now we're working here on your street.

So, you know, you don't like it. Move out. But we're not going anywhere. So you're the traffic on your road. and now, you know, they, and it's not just, you know, sex workers anymore. It's sex trafficking. So we've changed the tune to sex workers. It's all about sex trafficking.

So it isn't just, I'm just not a prostitute. I've been sexually trafficked. Oh. Okay. So everyone has been trafficked. Yes, yes. All right. But I don't know what to tell you if you're living in that neighborhood.

And I'm sure that's not the only neighborhood, but this story that I saw was in Oakland. It would just, you know, if your neighborhood, all of a sudden had a couple houses up for sale and it was purchased by sex traffickers. And they just moved in and, you know, eight or nine, eight or nine females, and or males, I don't want to judge, move in.

And they just start working the street corner, man. putting it out, they're posting on social media. Hey, booty time. Post on social media. Booty's up. And here comes the traffic. Looking for a little bit. What does that mean?

That means if there's traffic, that means, you know, I got to sell, I got to sell little drugs to, you know, keep the hookers happy and keep the customers happy. So your neighborhood goes to hell quick. Goes to hell quick. so good luck God bless

and you might admit maybe that's where they arrest Hunter I don't know this episode is brought to you by Peloton a new era of fitness is here introducing the new Peloton Cross Training Tread Plus powered by Peloton IQ

The head count is now roughly about 3,800 less than what they started out with at its peak. of 8600 last year?

Wow. The CEO, who took over in February, claims the move should position the company to return to growth. Okay. After reporting a nearly $1.3 billion loss. They had those big recalls, though, right? I mean, that cost them a lot.

There's no doubt. You could make that argument. I was just thinking about the recall. It doesn't say anything about the recalls here. but that was the the treadmill recall was big for them. I had to recall all those because some kid got hurt, right? I think the child died, Jeff. Okay.

I'm sorry that you're, I'm sorry the kid died, but I mean, okay, yes, because I remember talking about the treadmills. And it's your response, hello, have we not had any personal responsibility? So the treadmill doesn't have, there was some, something, there was some, there was some guard that it didn't have on it. So the kid got, the kid got sucked in underneath. Ouch. You ain't lying out. You ain't lying out. I'll never forget. Every time I think about treadmills, I think about my daughter on our, on our treadmill dad. She was, I don't know,

this was like three or four years ago. And I hear from the bedroom, Dad! And I come around the corner and she is, laying them down and picking them up baby i mean moving moving on that treadmill i mean she's never ran so fast in her life i guarantee you that it was awesome it was awesome i wish had i reacted differently i would have you there would have been a tic-tok out there or at least a at least an instagram real of her on this uh this treadmill it was awesome she was hanging on to the ledges and i mean moving with this bug-eyed side scared look on her face because she didn't know how to stop it.

She couldn't stop it. And if she lets go, she's crashing into the back window at the bedroom. I mean, it's going to be ugly, right? So, I mean, I have to, you have to run over and obviously save her. Of course. And instead of just, why don't you just let go? I'm going to come in, just lay a cigarette. Let go.

Hold on. Let me start recording. Let go. Oh, so she was, I mean, it was scary. I mean, but she was seriously going on that treadmill, man. It was awesome. She didn't think so. Anyway, you know, yes, I stopped it and got her off.

Okay, so shut up, leave me alone. I wanted to have her just let go, baby. I would have been a heck of a crash, man. It would have been awesome. She would have been hurt bad, so it would have. It would have been that awesome. Anyway, it would have been a good. Ah, you get it.

You get it. I saved her, okay, so leave me alone. So I guess that Peloton is not the only company. I mean, you got Wayfair, laid off 5%. DocuSign, laid off 9%. The old pandemic is over with. So these companies that were all online stuff, it's a tough world.

Now, I know that the CEO said that, you know, these cuts, if we don't turn this thing around to six months, it might be a standalone company, and you're going to have to survive or die on your own. And then he said, oh, no, no, no, no, no. There's no ticking clock, which means there is a ticking clock for Peloton's performance. So we're not going to, we're not going to,

to Amazon or Apple. That kills me. That kills me. We're not going to sell to Amazon or Apple. Well, they came to us with a deal, and it was just too good to turn down. That's what you're going to hear. Or it's going to be Walmart.

We're selling to Walmart Plus. I told you we weren't going to sell to Amazon or Apple. We're going to sell to Walmart Plus. Okay. Peloton is going to be the exclusive pelotonins on Walmart Plus. Oh, okay, great, no problem. Now, they did just sign a deal, and we'll see how it works out with Hilton hotels, to put 5,400 of the change-branded, 50,400 bikes in all of the 5,400 Hilton's. Okay.

But, I mean, does that mean if I stay at a Hilton, do I then have access to? to the Pelotonians, or do I still have to be a member of Peloton? And that just tax on to my Hilton bill. Or is that part of my Hilton bill? We'll see. I don't know. We shall see. I see where Boston Dynamics and five other robotics companies have pledged not to weaponize their prototypes.

Oh, that is so nice to them, because nobody will. Nobody's going to weaponize their robots. Are you kidding me? Well, you don't even need to say that. I mean, come on. That's just silly. Of course they're going to use these as weapons. It's what you're building them for.

But no. Boston Dynamics, along with five other robotics companies, wrote a letter, pledging not to weaponize their general purpose robots. Okay. They're general purpose robots. Just don't go over in that room. Okay, these are our general purpose robots right here.

Nice, huh? Yeah, you can use them, you can walk them. They can clean the house. They can do stuff for you. Don't go in that room over there, though. That's our war room. Those robots over there is what we're going to do for some killing. There's no way that they can't do that.

That's where we're at now. And I'm surprised that this Ukraine war has not brought out a few of the robots, just for the heck of it. Does someone drop a, A battalion of robots in Ukraine? Huh. Weird. I don't see anything like that before.

And so they promised, though, they wrote a strongly worded letter. And so I guess they all got together and held hands. The robots all sang kumbaya, and it's just a wonderful thing. So you don't have to worry about it. There's not going to be any robot soldiers coming at your door, okay? All right. I mean, don't worry about it. Oh, dry your eyes.

too. We'll just do some headlines here for you. Dry your eyes. Justin Bieber postponed his upcoming Asia tour. Oh no. What? Yes. Just, you know, he's not feeling well. He still has health issues.

I wonder what that could be. I wonder what could have brought on those health issues. Couldn't have been the vaccine, right? I mean, he had the facial thing. That's probably still what he's dealing with, right? Why, that thing knocked him out. he's still dealing with that I saw a story in this

WWE former WW former let me say it again former WWE Can you say it again 10 times WWE? WVUE Amorpha Fallis Thank you that's exactly I believe that was her name

She's like 30 And she just died Oh No cause of death given Now when they don't tell you How someone died It's either drugs, right, a drug overdose, an addiction issue, which, you know, is sad.

Look, anytime anybody dies, it's 30 years old with a family, it's sad, I got it. It's sad anytime, Jeff. It doesn't matter if they're 90 or 100. I know, I know. But she was just 30 and no cause of death. Okay, so it's drugs or it's, well, she vaccinated. And they don't say it in the story. And Justin Bieber is canceling his tour of the Asia tour

because I don't know what, he can't move his half of his face. Still, I don't know. I don't know. It doesn't make any sense to me. And Lionel Messi, one of the top Instagramers, soccer players in the world is 35 now.

And he says that the World Cup and Qatar is going to be his last. Oh my gosh. I'm sorry. You just wiped away the tears for Justin Bieber. and now you've got tears for Lionel Messi ending his career. I'm sorry. I didn't mean to make you cry like that. I'm so sorry.

I'm so sorry. And in an example of and this happened in Texas. Now this has been going on since I moved to Texas. Since I moved to Texas, I don't know how long I've lived here now, 10 years. Ever since I've lived here, there have been multiple stories that come up

that say, and this happened in Texas. I can't believe. believe it happened in Texas. Well, Texas isn't Texas. I mean, you can make the case that really the world isn't the world it was. America

isn't the America. When you think of America, when you think of America, what do you think of? I mean, that's, somebody needs to do that, produce that for me, I want to, I'll play the clips. When you think of America, excuse me, ma'am, when you think of America, what do you think of?

I think of, uh, hookers, on the street in Oakland. Okay, thank you. Let me just do the man on the street. That's, I mean, anyway, there's a story about a town in Texas, Sequin, Texas, S-E-Q-U-I-N. It's either a Q or a G, so it's S-E-G-U-I-N.

It's down there by San Antonio. Nobody cares. But it's a small city, and they have a problem. The city lost power. more than once in three days because of raccoons. The raccoons are

getting into the electrical grid substation in Sequin, Texas, and they're causing a citywide power outage. Now, they claim that they have they've included, they made a joke out of it. Ha, ha, ha, ha,

the mask marauder, Ricky Raccoon. Oh, okay. So this happened in Texas. Now, let me ask you a question. If you were a citizen of Sequin, Texas, and you didn't have any power, you go outside, and you say,

oh, look, there's a raccoon that I've told is the raccoon that caused us to be without power, what are you going to do? There should be no... Easy. Can't count down. It's just one raccoon. Some of them get pretty big.

I mean, you're putting them down. There should be no more raccoons in Sequin, Texas, ever again. Ever. Now, I know they claim that the two raccoons behind this incident have died. They didn't say they died of lead. So they may have electrocured themselves in the power grid. I don't know. But there should not be any raccoons in Sequin, Texas.

And no more. Raccoons are mean, I mean, they look cute and they, and they breed nasty things. Every time you turn around, they've got a row of babies behind them. And there they are. Oh, look at the cute little raccoons. Some of them do get rid of them. Some of them get, I mean, they'll knock over trash cans.

No, no, no, no. If a raccoon comes into my yard and is big enough to knock over my trash can, yeah, you got to go. Sorry. I love you, but you got to go. And, uh, was I hear a gunshot over there? Nope,

I don't know what you're talking about. That's weird. I heard something too. It sounded like it came from over there. Yeah, it's just, you don't need to tell anybody. You just bury the stupid raccoon in the backyard. You don't go, yeah, I just shot three raccoons.

Just bury it, be done with it, okay? Yeah, people are agonizing. So, all right, so I'll leave you with a joke for the day. All right, a joke for the day. Let's get out of here. Let's be done. I've had enough. I'm sure you have to.

She had the vet come over to check her out. The vet said, ma'am, your cat is pregnant. The lady said that's not possible. The cat never leaves the house. Then a tomcat walks out from behind the sofa. What about him? Asked the vet. To which the lady responded,

Don't be silly. That's her brother. Don't be silly. That's her brother. You know you laughed. Stream and subscribe to more Blaze media content at the blaze.com slash podcast. Podcasts.
