Blaze Radio Network And now Chewing the Fat with Jeff Fisher So yesterday I saw a social media post that talked about Russia blocking access to porn hub

and to telling its people to meet someone in real life And I thought Wait, what? What kind of world are we living in? This can't be. How dare you? What are they at war or something

With another country? And then I find out that that's not true. Okay, good. Apparently, they have not banned a porn hub. They did it one time prohibit their citizens from having access to Pornhub and You Porn, telling people to try to meet someone in real life. But then Pornhub said, hey, wait a minute. Hey, why don't you guys let us in?

But we'll just make sure that everyone has to be 18. You have to click on a button that says, yes, you're 18 years of age or you can't get in. And Russia went, all right, fine, go ahead. So, for those of you listening to the program in Russia, and I'm sure there's a bunch of you, take a breath. It's okay. You still can log on to Pornhub.

So, shoot, don't worry about hating on the U.S. Don't worry about having to deal with China. Don't worry about all those sanctions. Don't worry about NATO. For sure, don't worry about Ukraine. But be happy and relaxed because you're able to access porn hub. Welcome. Welcome to Chewing the Fat.

The announcements have been made. The 25 MacArthur Fellows of 2022 have been announced. Now, you can't get nominated, and the pool of candidates apparently is a tightly held secret. And you're asking yourself, wait, the MacArthur Foundation? Yes, the MacArthur Foundation, the John D. and Catherine T. MacArthur Foundation, supports creative people. This is according to their website.

effective institutions and influential networks building a more just, vernant and peaceful world. MacArthur is placing a few big bets that truly significant progress is possible on some of the world's most pressing social changes, including advancing global climate solutions. Who doesn't love that? Decreasing nuclear risk, promoting local justice reform in the U.S. of course, and reducing corruption in Africa's most populous country, Nigerian. In addition to the MacArthur Fellows Program and the global 100% and change competition,

the Foundation continues its historic commitments to the role of journalism in responsive democracy, as well as the vitality of our headquarters in Chicago. So congratulations. So if you get a MacArthur Foundation Fellow grant, you get $800,000. No strings attached. You get 800 grand. They pay it out in five years.

So you don't get just 800,000 up front. You get five years quarterly payments. So every three months, 25 people from this year alone get $40,000. Right? I mean, that's what it would be. It would be 20 payments of $40,000 each. That's not bad.

That's not bad. I would like to say, how do you get nominated? But you don't. They just choose. They just choose. And they have everyone listed. They have an ornithologist, a cellist, a human rights activist, a photographer, filmmaker. They list all the people that got part of the MacArthur money.

Congratulations to them. Gosh darn it, good for you. I hope that you can pull it off for you. for the MacArthur Foundation. Really incredible. Really incredible that this, I guess he was a real estate insurance guy. I don't know if the wife had money

or did anything prior to them being together, but this is what they set up, the MacArthur Foundation. And they have their, they have a screen with more about their values, more about each of our values. Diversity, equity and inclusion, empathy, integrity, learning, creativity. And then in the middle, it has our values.

What we stand for, who we are, and how we work. So congratulations to everyone. I'd like to say hello to MacArthur President John Palfrey. John, my name is Jeff Fisher. The show is Chewing the Fat. I believe, I mean, I believe that I, I, certainly promote some of the world's most pressing social challenges. I advance global climate solutions.

What I do decreases nuclear risk. I promote local justice reform in the U.S. and all around the world. And I'd like to say that I help in reducing corruption in Africa, in Nigeria, the most populous country in Africa. So, you know, I'm willing to, you know, take a piece of the MacArthur Foundation grant money, even if it isn't the entire $800,000. On top of which, let me add that my entire family

is believers in this MacArthur Foundation Fellowship. I mean, we're, hello, I have a photographer, professional photographer. Scouting promotes all of that. Well, you know, most of it anyway. I'm willing to, that, I'm not with that, a million six, if I just take two of them? Okay, no problem, I'm in.

That's only 80 grand every three months. I'll try to get by on that. So I appreciate the MacArthur Foundation. And just reach out. Reach out. Email me, chewing the fat at the blaze.com. You can follow me on Twitter at Jeffrey JFR, Facebook, Instagram, Jeff Fisher Radio. Any way you want to get a hold of me, please do so.

All right, just a little side note on Alex Jones. I know I'm tired of talking about it too. But Alex Jones was ordered by a Connecticut jury to pay $965 million in damages to people harmed by his lies about the Sandy Hook school shooting. Now, he has filed Chapter 11 bankruptcy. He faces a third trial in December in Texas that, you know, is the final defamation suit against Jones. This particular trial was 14 family members. of victims and an FBI agent who was a first responder at the shooting. One of the family members

whose six-year-old daughter was killed in the attack was given $120 million. That was the largest single award. Now, do I think it is horrible and have said many times that it's horrific what happened to these children? Absolutely. I don't even like thinking about what it must be like. I can't imagine. I don't want to try to imagine. And I can't imagine what it was like for these people. But for the death threats and harassment directed at these families, I'm really sorry about that. But that doesn't mean that Alex Jones should have to pay for it. I'm sorry, no. And how about no? And I believe that's his defense, which probably is not going to go over well?

Your Honor, how about, no, that's probably not going to go over well. Now they're going to file, you know, an appeal. But I mean, they've ruined this man over. And he's, you know, he's been cut from all social media platforms. YouTube, Apple, Facebook, Spotify, Twitter, all banned info wars. I don't know what to say. It just seems they claim that he's. worth $270 million?

Okay. Maybe. They tried to claim that he's moving money out of his companies and, you know, moving it somewhere. I don't know where, whether he's, if I'm him, I'm bearing it in the backyard and not saying a word. Because, I mean, he's got to be able to eat somehow. I know that it's horrific.

It's the deadliest mass shooting in an elementary school of U.S. history, 26 people dead. Right, Sandy Hook? How many of were killed in? And Yuvaldi. Had to be close. Anyway, it doesn't. They were both horrific.

I don't really like to think about it. But let's just say that if this was number one, Yuvaldi had to be number two. It was in the 20s. Anyway, it's easy enough to look up, Jeff. I don't really want to. It was horrific. And, you know, if this says it's the deadliest shooting,

then so be it. 26 people did. Got it. And Yuvaldi didn't have. 26 people. Okay, got it. Doesn't make it really any less horrific. Anyway, they talked about the one judgment is 50 million in Texas, right? It's just amazing. And I can't believe that we're at this point now where we're suing a guy. I mean, we're shutting him down for his beliefs. And this is where we're at. And I don't know what comes of it. I know that, you know, they say that he's got all

this money, but he doesn't have billion dollars. And I know that they will say that it's not about, you know, the $965 million or over a billion dollars. It's about getting justice for their children. But have you really, have you really gotten justice? I mean, all the bad stuff that people did to you or talked about you, if they did something, that's illegal. That's on them.

That's not on Alex. but we're putting it on Alex and it's just this is wrong it's just wrong the whole thing is just horrific and I don't know I don't know how the families ever recover I don't know how Alex ever recovers I guess he just keeps hawking his wares and hosting his info wars show on his website and we go from there so you know rest and peace to all the kids it's Andy Hook and Yuvaldi and I hope that the families can find some kind of peace in their search.

All right, let's go to the break room. I need something cold to drink. Desperately. Did you see where Heidi Kloom is getting hammered? No, not that way. She did a photo shoot with her daughter who just turned 18

and it's a lingerie photo shoot with her daughter for an Italian lingerie company. And they're singing and dancing around and it's for the lingerie shoot. It's awesome. It's for intimacy lingerie campaign. I mean, Heidi has her own line as well. So this is, you know, for her daughter in Italy. And it's awesome. The art of Italian lingerie.

And it's just her and her daughter. Now, Heidi made a fortune and has made a fortune for being Heidi Klum, which is hotness. And she's a Victoria's Secret model. She's, you know, she's been modeling, you know, her whole life and has made a fortune. And still, you know, she just, I think she's, I mean, she's almost 50. Holy cow. I mean, it's just almost to put her away in the home. And her daughter just turned 18, legal, by the way.

And even if she, I mean, most, there's a lot of models, many models around the world that are not 18 years of age that are still modeling and they model darn near every kind of piece of clothing. However, I know we're in today's world. I got it. But they're talking about how it's, you know, mother, daughter, I can't believe it. It just makes it weird. Why? They're doing, it's nothing. It's just really, really weird.

We are in a weird, weird time in America. Anyway, good for the clums for Heidi's laying the groundwork for a daughter and ready to make more of a fortune for the family, just walking down the runways in your underwear. Thanks a lot. Could you do it? I would like to say to the people that I wouldn't model sexually lingerie with my mom well your mom's not Heidi Klum okay all right good let's just leave it at that and I see where my man

Jamie Fox ha Jamie Fox he's got to be so pissed and he handled it pretty good but he showed up at Cardi B's birthday party okay so Cardi B's having her big birthday party I think she Cardi B just turned 30 I think wow talking about she's getting a little long on the tooth too anyway so she turned 30 and had a big birthday party right so Jamie shows up with you know the Jamie Fox Posse he's got four or five people with him he's rolling a little heavy to the event

and he gets out of the rolls and he changes his shoe I love the story changes into his shoes his party shoes which apparently looked the same as the shoes he had on before but anyway he gets out of the car steps out of the white rolls goes up to the door and the door the door guy won't let him in

no no there's too many guests and there's no room for you, so sorry. And so Jamie says, okay, fine, and turns around and the, you know, the paparazzi is going crazy, taking pictures, and

wanting him to comment, and he's like, nah, it's cool, it's fine, no problem. Now, obviously, Cardi was, you know, not aware of this, she's inside partying. When she finds out, I'm guessing the door guy or door person,

whoever turned away Jamie Fox to the party. So, I mean, I guess they decided that after he started walking away and everybody couldn't believe it,

the door guy came running back out to Jamie and said, no, it's cool, it's cool, it's cool. And Jamie was like, nope, we're not good. Take care. I love you.

but you turn me away, you got one shot at the Jamie Fox at the party, okay? Now you turn me away. Nope, not going to go back in. You live with the decision of turning me away. Okay, take care. That is awesome. Speaking of awesomeness, you know, I asked you, the listener to Chewing the Fat, to email the show Chewing the Fat at theblaze.com

and give me your best, Sam I am, on Ukraine. and why I do not like war with Ukraine, Sam I Am poems. And I read one yesterday, and I chose a couple more for today. One from Ron. I don't like bombing in Ukraine. I don't like bombing. It causes pain. I don't like bombing here or there.

I don't like bombing anywhere. I don't like bombing in Spain or Japan. I don't like bombing, Sam I Am. Now he goes on to say, I don't necessarily believe all that. But the point is across. I love the show. Hey, thank you.

I appreciate you, Ron, for participating in the Sam I Am. Oh, it's not really a contest, but I appreciate you writing your own Sam Iams. And then I have one from my man, uh, Samuel. Okay, I think it's Samuel, right? Yeah, I won't say the full address that's on the email, but we'll just go with Samuel. You don't know who you are, okay?

I don't want people bombarding you because of your greatness here. He or she emailed the show with their Dr. Seuss does Ukraine. Would you bomb them just for gain? Could you bomb them just for fame? I don't like bombing the Ukraine. Vlad is mad. it's insane. Another leader takes his fill

and weak US sends a mill. I will not bomb them from a plane. I will not bomb them on a train. I don't like bombing the Ukraine. Vlad is glad causing pain. Biden's butt, just been wiped, like the oil, can't get piped. Should you bomb them with a box,

and the chicken breasts and the salmon filets and the bacon. and the bacon. I was really trying to make order some extra bacon with my order. I mean, Shark Tank host Kevin O'Leary has called Moink's bacon the best bacon he's ever tasted. I agree with Kevin, or Kevin agrees with me.

So who died today? yesterday, I talked about Angela Lansberry, who passed away at the age of 96 days shy of her 97th birthday, very sad, rest in peace, Angela Lansberry. And we talked about her history and her story. But one story that I read yesterday after the show talked about how she was concerned earlier in life with her daughter falling under the spell of a Hollywood deadbeat Charles Manson. And she worried that she said, that Charlie would, she didn't call him Charlie, that's me, he would pick up the girl up from school

and get her to steal money and food from her parents. And then she worried that her entire family would go come under the spell. The kids would come under her spell of Charles Manson. So she picked up and moved to Ireland. Yeah. She said, look, it started with cannabis, moved on to heroin. There were factions up in the hills above Malibu that were dedicated to deadly pursuits. It pains me to say it, but I, at one stage, Deidre, her daughter, was in the crowd led by Charles Manson.

She was one of many youngsters who knew him, and they were fascinated. He was an extraordinary character, charismatic in many ways, no question about it. Growing concerned with her children's well-being, she revealed that she had told her husband, we need to leave. So she upped everything and picked up everything and moved to Ireland. That was the birthplace of her mother. and was also somewhere that her children wouldn't be exposed to any more bad influences. And she refused work for a year, simply kept housed.

She said she bought Elizabeth David's books and learned how to cook properly. She said it was a wonderful time in my life. And that was all good. But she did it for her daughter. And she knew that getting in bed with Charles Manson or the clutches, of Charles Manson was definitely a bad thing. And so she wanted to get her daughter out of there. And this obviously was before the Sharon Tate murders.

So good for Angela Lansberry, recognizing it and taking care of her children. Really incredible. Rest in peace, Angela Lansberry. Another madman that we're fascinated with, Jeffrey Dahmer. His show on Netflix, was not. his show, but the limited series on Dahmer Monster, the Jeffrey Dahmer story, is now the number two all time on Netflix English language series chart, right behind Stranger Things 4. It racked up 2005.33 million hours of viewing time worldwide. Wow.

That brings the Ryan Murphy production series total to 701.37 million hours since September 21st debut. That's second place. Behind Stranger Things 4. So, Stranger Things season 4 has 1.35 billion hours. Oh, wow. That is amazing. So it passed season two of Bridgeton, which had 656.56.2 to 6 million hours on the first 28 days. It sits fourth among Netflix series in any language behind Squid Game has 1.65 billion hours over the first 28 days.

Stranger Things 4 and the final season of Money Heist, 7992.23 million. And so they're probably not going to get past Squid Game and Stranger Things 4, but it might knock up money heist and become number three worldwide. So anyway, if you're one of those people, you're part of a big crowd. You're not alone. So way back in 2019, a federal judge ruled in the foundation's favor. The foundation was the Andy Warhol Foundation, saying that Warhol's images were transformative

because while Goldsmith's photo, and that's Lynn Goldsmith, who's a noted photographer, they showed, according to the federal judge, that the photo showed a vulnerable human being, the Warhol print depicted an iconic larger-than-life figure. Now, the foundation sought Supreme Court review after then the New York-based second U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals ruled in favor of Goldsmith in March of 2021.

The appeals court faulted the district court for focusing on the artist's intent, saying a judge should not assume the role of the art critic. Instead, a judge must examine whether the New York or the new work is of a completely different character from that of the original. It must, at bare minimum, comprise something more than the imposition of a new work. another artist style on the primary work. I don't know. I think I disagree with that, but that's why it's in front of the Supreme Court. So during Wednesday's arguments at the Supreme Court, justices questioned whether Warhol's image of prints had a different purpose from Goldsmith

because both were used in the same way commercially to illustrate articles about the singer. Under copyright law, courts weigh whether a new work will compete with an existing work and undercut its market value. Although when Warhol did his print, Prince was just an up-and-coming star. He wasn't Prince. He was just Prince. And I loved Prince back then, too, man.

Oh, why did you marry him? You know what? If he would have said, marry me, I may have at the time. So we'll see what happens before the Supreme Court. Now they're going to rule on it and see what happens. It's interesting because, you know, as, My wife would say, well, it's my picture. And you drew my picture.

But he didn't really drew, he drew what his view of the picture was. And that was the Warhol's work, right? So it is different. And it was both for commercial purposes. Hello, I don't know that they competed against each other. That's kind of silly. I don't think that they competed against each other. I think they were two separate entities.

But I didn't make the argument in front of, of the Supreme Court, and they didn't ask me to make the argument, which is a little disappointing, I must say. 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. Scientists from Stanford, they have published a new study.

researchers published a new study on human brain cells injected into rats now it took seven years and it started when Stanford University researchers took baby rats and injected their brains with

human brain cells the tissue successfully managed to mix with the rat brain tissue and a rat human brain combos could respond to experiments like knowing blue light meant they'd get water.

But researchers say this is just a start. The ultimate goal is to understand how certain mutations affect the brain. The study things like autism and schizophrenia and, you know, try to come up with new treatments. Uh-huh. And also scientists in a separate study showed how scientists grew human and mice brain cells in a lab and train them to play a video game Pong. That is awesome. So now they're going to end up, you know,

drugging the rats and seeing how they perform and what difference those do they have. I mean, we are spending an awful lot of money on creating zombie rats or zombies rats. Or zombies altogether. I mean, first, Once we get the human brains into the rats, then we're going to have to have the rat brains into the humans

because rats are, you know, beautiful animals and understanding and we need to learn more about them. So if we inject the rat brain into our brain, then we're good to go, right? Right. Has anyone seen the documentary Walking Dead? Because I have. In fact, I do a show on it once a week called Talking Walking Dead. And while this may not be what has caused the zombie experience,

the dead experience in the Walking Dead. It seems like when I read this stuff, this is how it got started. Now, another way that it could have gotten started, and I don't know this, I'm just telling you what happened. The FDA and the CDC has now signed off on an updated COVID-19 booster for 5 to 11-year-olds. Isn't that great? Pfizer and Moderna have tweaked their recipes to target Omicron subvariants, it's BA.4 and BA.5, as well as the original COVID-19 strain.

Now, kids as young as five are cleared to get the Pfizer dose, and kids six and up can get Moderna's booster. That's so great. So now it's not only for the kids who got their primary series or their last booster two months before. So I guess we're hoping that the updated booster is going to add that extra protection, against potential future surges. That's great.

So, Moderna, now they're already available, which is good news. Pfizer, kind of behind the eight ball a little bit. They're not going to be available until next week. So, okay. According to this new study on long COVID, a new study found that one in 20 people who got COVID-19, haven't fully recovered from the virus.

Even six to 18 months later, but those who were asymptomatic were unlikely to suffer long-term effects and vaccines can offer protection. Oh, so it is still about the vaccine. So it isn't just about, well, you know, the virus affects people differently and we just have to live with it.

No, we don't have to just live with it. We have to get other vaccines and boosters if you, you know, have some sort of, if you had some sort of effect from COVID-19 at all. You need to be vaccinated and boosted. Okay. All right.

That's good news. That's good news. I will be interested to see the numbers on the children that are getting the COVID-19 boosters and the original vaccine to begin with for the kids. Because my kids, I don't have young kids like this at this age anymore. my youngest is i don't know she's 14 or 15 now um she's my youngest and uh i'm pretty sure she's not being vaccinated either and um i do that's my my wife's grandchildren are this age and uh that's not happening okay that's just not going to happen so that's not me speaking that's uh my wife's grandchildren's

father uh speaking so i would be interested to see the number on how what who is actually making their kids get this because I feel like the numbers are going to be really really low So I thought we were done with axing plastic bags at stores, but I guess not Kroger and Virginia is now eliminating single-use plastic bags that's special They're going to they want you to bring a bag or purchase a reusable plastic bag or you can purchase a reusable a tote for 99 cents. Isn't that great? Now the earnings are going to be donated to the zero hunger, zero waste initiative, but Kroger said it's determined to eliminate plastic bags entirely by 2025. So that's, I mean, great, right? Who doesn't love that? So stupid. Now, I'm sure that it's costing more

money to make them and it's a lot of money, right? And those supply chain issues and it's also a lot of money for these stores to provide bags. Got it. But to just ban them. But now we have a new plastic bag ban coming and I'm excited for it. California has now decided that, you know what? We need to ban those little plastic bags that grocery shoppers

use to put their produce in. Yeah, I hate those. Man, do I hate the convenience of those plastic bags? Yeah, I know. So now the legislation has approved the banning. Stores will be providing helpful little plastic bags

that consumers use at the supermarket. The new rule goes into effect 2025, so you still got a couple years. But even after it takes hold, stores will be allowed

to offer compostable bags and recycled bags. Boy, I bet you those are going to be great. You know, sometimes those are so hard pain in the ass to open up now.

I'll tell you that. I know. I know. the little arrow on it and you've got a you know wig if you if you dampen your finger you're not supposed to lick your finger in a store anymore COVID-19 so you see the store clerks have their little sponge

on their cart as they're bagging produce for the people who are getting picking up their groceries outside of the store but they have a little sponge so that their finger gets a little damp because that's what you need you need a little wetness you don't want it really wet you just want enough to get it sticky so that you could just rub back and forth real quick and it moves this end of the bag

open so then you can open it up. Anyway, it's just a little helpful hint from me. But according to this, this plastic that they use is not recyclable. It's a contaminant in almost any bin that you put it into. Well, why are we using that then?

That just, I don't understand. So anyway, it flies around landfills, flies of our trucks, get stuck in gears at recycling facilities. Well, I realize that that's a problem. So why are, don't we use something else. I'm sure that's probably the cheapest way to do it,

but maybe that's a good thing. Oh, my gosh, I'm sounding, oh, I'm sorry. What am I doing? No, it's not a good thing. Stop it. We don't need to be banning things. So, you know, I mean, if it's not recyclable and it's just a thing that we're producing

that doesn't do any good, but it's keeping contaminating, items away from other contaminating items, it's still kind of a good thing, right? Because you put produce in, you put, you put candy in, you put bakery goods in. It's a pre-checkout bag,

right? So for items that are not packaged already, or items that are packaged and could sweat or leak, right? So it would seem to me that so those bags that they use at the meat, department and the produce department and the bakery department those are all pre-checkout bags so if those are the same bags that are not compostable then i guess i might be on the side of getting rid of them

i know don't look at me like that i'm going to look into this a little bit more because as i'm reading the story i think i'm on the side of getting rid of them if they're doing nothing if we can't reuse them if we can't recycle them for other things, then what's the point? I mean, that's the point of having these plastic bags so that we can recycle them and use them again. That's the whole point, isn't it? Anyway, so I see, speaking to California, though,

I see where the neighborhood that Harry and Megan want to move into, they're saying, yeah, why don't you guys not move here? We don't want you here. There's big stories about how Harry and Megan are now not getting invited to the red carpet parties. Oh, gosh darn it. And Megan just did an interview

where she talked about, I've been called insane, hysterical, and crazy. Yeah, yeah, that's probably just from Harry. She went on to say she's been labeled, this was in their new episode of Archtypes, which, gosh, darn it, I haven't listened to that yet. It's the show's fifth installment. the decoding of crazy.

The Duchess of Sussex sat down with actresses Constance Wu, Jenny Slate, and Deepika Paducon, and discussed allegedly being called insane. Yeah, that's from Harry and the family, I bet. Raise your hand if you've ever been called crazy or hysterical, or what about nuts, insane, out of mind, out of your mind, completely irrational. Now, she didn't say who called her that?

Yeah, that's because that was hairy. She was just, apparently, she, you know, is that public perception or did someone actually call her that? I will say, yes, someone actually called her that. It was hairy, okay? And you know what? She also explained how the word crazy is shamelessly thrown around so casually. the damage it's wrought on society and women frankly everywhere yeah the word crazy is it's not the the person who is crazy that's doing all the damage it's the word

the word has shattered reputations destroyed careers ruined relationships and families yeah yeah the word not the person Not the people, but the word. The word crazy has done the damage. Oh, yeah. I'm with you, Megan. I'm with you. It's not you at all.

It's not you. Okay? It's the word. Harry, you got to get out, bro. You've got to get out. Stream and subscribe to more Blaze Media content at theblaze.com slash podcasts. Unwrap holiday magic at Holt Renfrew with gifts that I know you.
