With Amex Platinum, you have access to over 1,400 airport lounges worldwide. So your experience before takeoff is a taste of what's to come. That's the powerful backing of Amex. Conditions apply. Blaze Radio Network. And now, Chewing the Fat with Jeff Fisher. So we have a new study that suggests picking your nose may raise the risk of dementia. I know.

We've been told to stop picking our noses forever. Or at least some of us have. So damaging the inside of the nostrils creates a shortcut for bacteria to seep into the blood and travel directly to the brain. Researchers looked at what happens when the nerve that connects the nose to the brain is exposed to chlamydia pneumonia. Yeah, when it's exposed to

a normally harmless bug that causes sinus issues. The study on mice found detectable levels of bacteria in the brain within 72 hours. So within a month, the rodents developed clumps of a protein plaque linked to Alzheimer's.

so more than 6 million Americans suffer from Alzheimer's with 73% of people suffering from the disease being over 75 years of age. So just stop picking your nose. They think and they don't know because the causes are still unknown. They don't know if it has to do with obese. poor diet, loneliness, lack of sleep, or picking your nose. So stop picking your nose and allowing Chlamydia pneumonia to seep into your brain. Welcome.

Welcome to chewing the fat. So if you're listening to this, we made it. We survived. The asteroid has passed. past the Earth. Today, the 1st of November 2022, we have a asteroid passing

the Earth that hopefully won't hit us. If it hits us, might do some damage. Some serious, serious damage. So 2022 RM4

will pass less than six lunar distances today. It's a very close for an asteroid. It's larger than the asteroid that created the crater in Arizona some 50,000 years ago. So hopefully you're listening to this and we weren't hit. Did you know that, and I did not know this, so that we have the near-Earth objects and we have the near-Earth asteroids. And so, you know, they also, many of of these have, you know, I don't know, zero chance of impact on the planet, but, you know, all the people that have telescopes watch out for them. And thank you for watching out for them.

We, you know, we would, I didn't know, I don't know what we'd do without you. Okay. Anyway, uh, I didn't realize that the first near-Earth asteroid was, uh, noticed by German astronomer Carl Gustav, I'm sorry, Carl Gustav Witt at the Berlin Observatory in 8,000. 1898. I mean, that seems like such a long time ago, and it really, well, it really wasn't. Was it? You know, 100 years or so.

I got it. It's 124 years. Shut up. So, anyway, I'm glad that we made it. I have a hope that we survived. I mean, if we have one that's going to hit the Earth, we have the new DART program, right, that we sent up, and we can just blast into it and redirect that asteroid in another

direction. Do we have a special, my question is, to the, to the dart plan. And, okay, so it was a big success and we smashed it into, I don't know, what was it, demorphus. And we changed the trajectory. We were supposed to be changed by about 10 minutes, and we changed it a little over 30 minutes, I think. So, I mean, it was a big success as far as NASA's concerned. But do we have, like, the special dart rocket just sitting around now? So that when we say, Yeah, we've got an asteroid that's going to hit Earth. Do we just roll out the old dart rocket and take off? Because I feel like we don't have that.

I feel like it would take a little while. So hopefully our people with telescopes, keep a close eye on the near-Earth objects and the near-Earth asteroids that could be flying into our planet because I don't want that to happen. Maybe it's just me, though. So we'll have an arraignment later today. As I said today is Tuesday, the 1st of November 2022.

We know that we will have a scheduled arrangement of De Pape, the man who attacked Paul Pelosi. That will have happened today. So we'll have a little bit more information. I know I watched the press conference from Brooklyn. Jenkins, the San Francisco District Attorney yesterday, and she was announcing the state charges against DePopi, and she said that this was politically motivated, and she implored the public to watch the words that we say and to turn down the volume of our political rhetoric.

She didn't say rhetoric. She said rhetoric. Just an incline. incredible story. He was federally charged with influence. Let's see. He's charged federally with influencing, impeding, or retaliating against a federal official by threatening or injuring a family member.

He also faces one count of attempted kidnapping of a United States official on account of the performance of official duties. Okay. We don't know if he has an attorney. she was asked about that at the press conference and she said well i guess we'll find that out tomorrow we don't know that now she was asked about uh video footage and said that if it was admitted in trial then we would see the video footage oh okay so and i think that she was specifically talking about the body cam footage from the police officers so we still have footage from the neighborhood

and footage from the pelosi house that i would like to do that i would like to be able to like to see, please. I'd like to have that all out there in the open, but good luck getting that. We know that De Papé or De Pape, D-E-E-P-A-P-E, is a Canadian citizen who legally entered the United States in the year 2000, but has stayed long after his visa expired. So he is an illegal alien. Wow. That's according to a U.S. official who is not.

authorized to discuss the matter publicly. Oh, okay. The family described De Papi as estranged. He is known by some San Francisco, some in San Francisco as a pro-nudity activist who appeared to embrace a range of conspiracy theories. He has lived for the past two years

in a garage at a residence in Richmond, California. So we'll find out more today on what happens. And if you just want to tone your, that rhetoric down, Okay, calm down. Stop making jokes. There's nothing funny about this whatsoever. And they're really, you know, I mean, Paul was attacked,

and it's sad that he was attacked, and I hope that he makes a full recovery, and I hope he makes a full recovery faster than expected, and he's back on his feet very soon. It's going to be very difficult for an 82-year-old man who was bashed in the skull with a hammer to do that, but I hope that it will pray that it happens. However, no, we're not going to stop our jokes.

Okay, I'm not doing it. I'm not doing it. I just, I'm sorry. No. Give us the information, give us the facts with no BS, and then we'll go from there. Okay? All right, good. Thank you.

We've had too many things that were different from the beginning of this case to what we're hearing now, which makes everyone believe that, okay, well, this is what happened, but we can't say that and we don't want people to know that. so we're going to say that this is what happened and that's not what happened. Okay, well, just give us the facts, please. That's all I want. Otherwise, you're just fueling the conspiracy theories. It's almost as if you want to fuel the conspiracy theory

so you're able to badmouth and besmirch the people who are talking about the conspiracy theories. It's almost if that's the case, isn't it? Yeah, it is. And those of you that want the country to come together, stop reporting this story as an unsettling echo of the insurrection at the Capitol. When rioters tried to overturn Joe Biden's election defeat of Donald Trump stormed the halls, eerily calling, where's Nancy? Some carried zip ties like the papy had.

They did? Okay. I don't recall seeing the zip ties of the people with the people on January 6th. But okay. All right, fine. And then I saw where she said in the press conference that in the ambulance to the hospital, Paul Pelosi told police he had never seen DePappy before. Okay.

All right. I mean, is there any way to refute that evidence? No. Not really. I don't know. We'll see. So we're to believe. that the guy got was attacked with the intruder in his home in his bedroom and then police came

and he had he had a hammer that struck his skull and he's rushed to the hospital and in the ambulance rushing to the hospital he tells police he's being questioned by police and says that he never saw the man before okay All right, fine. It's going to be a fascinating, fascinating case to follow, though, because what is true and what isn't and who do you believe? All right, let's go to the break room. I need something cold to drink desperately.

So how you doing on Instagram? Were you one of the people that had your Instagram accounts blasted and either suspended? or had a bunch of followers go away. Yeah. So don't worry about it. The vast scale of the bug was clear as other accounts, a follower accounts dropped.

The most followed person on the platform, Ronaldo lost 3 million of his 493 million followers. So anyway, Instagram has said they were sorry. Yeah, we've resolved the bug now. It's causing, you know, we knew it was causing people, different parts of the world have issues accessing their accounts and it caused some temporary

change to some number of followers. We're sorry. And, you know, the guy who is the Instagram boss, Adam Osseri, our apologies. So shut up. Don't worry about it. Okay, we're on it. We took care of it.

And if you lost some followers or we're suspended, we're sorry. All right? Sorry. Okay. All right. Thank you. Be sure to follow me. Jeff Fisher Radio on Instagram, by the way. I was not suspended. And I did not lose millions of followers.

Just saying. Oh, and how was everyone's Halloween? Did you dress up and have fun and go out and party? I'm sure many of you had some Halloween parties over the weekend because of Halloween being on Monday night. But I know many of you were all wound up at some of the stars that were dressing up, mocking Christianity. Yeah, it's Halloween. Hello. I know that we were mad at the Kardashians for sexualizing toy story.

Okay, it's Halloween. Can we? Enough is enough. I did find it funny that just to try to get back into the good graces. And I know that, look, this is just me thinking out loud. It could probably never be that way in real life. But so Kim Kardashian has been taking quite a hit lately. and for whatever reason she's been taking a hit.

So she accidentally showed up at a birthday party in full Halloween costume, except it wasn't a costume party. Oh, that Kim! Oh, that Kim! So she just stayed at the party and took pictures with everybody. And, you know, became the talk of the party. Ellis Ross's birthday dinner, because she just thought it was a Halloween.

costume party and it wasn't. Oh, that Kim, we love her. We love her. That could not have been a publicity stunt. No, I'm sorry. I don't believe it. Stop saying it. Okay? And then the party to always be at is the Heidi Klum party.

She always has, this is her 21st annual Halloween party. Personally, I'd like to say, Heidi, I've never been invited to one of your Halloween parties. I'm a little hurt. I'm a little hurt. I know you had other stars there. You dressed up again. She always has a great outfit.

She dressed up as this blue worm. Hubby was a fisherman with a line and a hook. Get it. And, you know, the daughter showed up as a catwoman, I think. Elon was there with his mom. So it was, you know, that's the place to be. That's the place to be is Heidi Clement. Halloween party this year taking place at Sake Nohanna in New York.

And there she wore the full worm outfit, obviously, for the pictures and the runway. And then once you got inside, the worm outfit came off. She left the mask on, though. And then just walked around in this hot nothing outfit. So it's a fun party to be at. I hope they all had fun. I'm not jealous at all. I just stayed home and enjoyed all the little trolls in my neighborhood

coming to the door asking for free stuff. Happy Halloween. I was hoping for an even happier Halloween to hit the powerball, but no one hit the power ball. So we have a new total grand prize, and the cash option is 596.7. million dollars the drawing will be tomorrow wednesday the second of november 2022 the total is one point two zero billion dollars

uh that'll be okay i'm willing i'm willing to take that now i know there was a million dollar winner in Texas, I have not looked to see if that was me or not. Will I cash it in for a million? Absolutely. But it's not 500 and some billion dollars. Anyway, I saw where I was looking at the list of the biggest lottery jackpots. So this would be the fourth at 1.20 because you had a mega millions at 1.537 billion. And you had a powerball at 1.5.3.7 billion. And you had a powerball at 1.

1.5-86 billion, that's number one, and the mega is number two. And then you had a mega at 1.337 billion. And then you have this one at 1.2. So there was another mega, just a little over a billion, 1.050 last year, which puts it, that's fourth. But it's just interesting to me. I feel like the cash payouts have gone down. And maybe it's just me.

But I was looking at the 1.337 mega millions jackpot. And it talked about, okay, so to win the prize of $1.337 billion, which had a $7.80.5 million cash value, right? Okay. So this particular powerball that we're looking at the 2nd of November is $1.20 billion. But the cash payout is $596.7 million. Now, I know that's just, it's just me, but it's funny how another 1.37,000, million dollars on the grand prize and the cash payout goes up two hundred million dollars right seven 80 from five almost two hundred million five ninety six

you know almost two hundred million it seems like the cash payouts are starting to go down a little bit and i don't know why that is i don't know what the deal is i haven't read the lottery rules or anything and am i going to take am i going to say hey, wait a minute. How come I'm only getting $596 million? See, that's the problem. How come I've only getting $596.7 million? Well, you know, you're happy to take it, but it could have been $700 million. It seems like that is, we've dropped the cash value down a little bit. So I don't know why that is. I just, maybe it's taxes. Maybe the whole thing is built on, built on somebody deep pocket and some extra cash. Okay, fine. I'll take the $500 million.

instead of the 700 million. I'm just talking out loud here that it seems a little strange to me. But good luck, and no one won, so you have an opportunity to possibly win $1.20 billion. And I realize that that's nothing to the $212 billion that Elon Musk, who we now either love or hate, I haven't figured that out yet, because he bought Twitter so now we don't like him but we liked him before

when he was just SpaceX and Tesla so we'll see he's he's doing what he's doing what should be done though over there at Twitter I will say that he's come in and cleaning house kicking everybody out he told the board goodbye take care

now he said that it was only a temporary thing he wasn't he wasn't going to be the head caretaker forever but we'll see we'll see I know he's coming in people are, you know, shaking in their boots over there at Twitter because he is bringing in the giant Elon broom and sweeping out. So hopefully he gets all the dust out of the corners too.

But we'll see. And I, again, I realized that my $1.20 billion winning ticket on Powerball isn't going to put me in the Elon Musk world of $212 billion. However, $590-some million is a generational changing amount of money. And so it's possible that maybe my kid's kid would have $212 billion if they were to get a kickstart from $596 million. But you never know, do you? You never know. This episode is brought to you by Peloton. A new era of fitness is here.

Congratulations, I guess, to Switzerland for setting the world record for the longest passenger train. Again, congratulations.

It was a 1.2 mile train or 1.9 kilometers kilometer train. I really want to put it, 1.2 mile train, which is composed of 100 coaches completed a spectacular 25 kilometers. 50.5 mile journey through the Alps. The world record attempt took place to highlight Switzerland's engineering achievements as well as to mark 175 years of Swiss railways. So congratulations and the pictures were awesome of this hundred car train going through the Swiss Alps. First of all, I'd like to say that I see trains every day. that have at least 100 cars on them. Those aren't passenger trains, Jeff.

I know. I mean, life in the train age, I'm all about trains. I love my train trains every day out of Trenton, New Jersey, into New York City, every day. I just will say, and they weren't 100 cars. I know. I don't know how many cars they actually were. It's a pain when you have to walk up to the platform. I mean, I don't know how they did it with the hundred cars,

if they would stop for the first 20 and then pull forward for the last 22, you know, as you wanted to disembark from the train. It's a long walk. It's a long walk coming up to the platform if you're the back 80 cars. But so, I mean, I'm a big fan of trains, but there's all kinds of trains that I see every day headed to the Fort Worth train yards that have at least 100 cars on them. So it's not really that big of a engineering achievement. And I'll say, have we not seen the television show Snowpiercer?

That particular train consists of 1001 carriages, and it circles the entire globe 2.7 times a year. So have we not seen that? I have, by the way. I have seen the Snowpiercer train. The show is set in 2026, seven years after the world becomes a frozen wasteland. Okay? Yeah.

And it follows the remnants of humanity who've taken shelter on a perpetually moving luxury train, designed and built by the eccentric billionaire Mr. Wilford. Its constant motion provides energy and prevents the passengers from freezing as well. Okay? Since the catastrophe, the trans population has become rigidly separated by class, caught up in a revolutionary struggle against the strictly imposed social hierarchy and unbalanced allocation of limited resources. The show explores issues of class warfare, social injustice, and the politics of survival.

And some of it's actually pretty good. I've been forced to watch it. My wife watched it. My daughter loves David Diggs, who is in the show. and so it's just another stupid TV show. However, I will say, it's got 100, 1,0001 carriages. Okay. So the old Switzerland train, the 1.2 mile train with 100 coaches, you know, not that big a deal.

Okay. I mean, congratulations. That is the world's longest passenger train. I think we could beat that here in the U.S. if we wanted to. In fact, that's what we should do. let's make a deal before the rail strike happens next month. Let's just go ahead and hook up all the passenger cars and just start it up and start pulling them and say, look, we now have the world record of the longest passenger train, and we could beat 100 coaches.

I mean, we could do 100 coaches in our sleep. So just make one that's, you know, a couple hundred coaches and say, there you go. We have the world record now. And then if they want to beat that, then we'll beat that. the next one. But for now, we're the record holder. Okay. All right. Thank you. We need to make that happen. I see where I sweet. Another story for the Swedish engineers. I mean, they're trying to show off their power. They have finally developed a female crash test dummy. So not only do they have the longest passenger train record. They now have developed a female crash test dummy.

Congratulations to the Swedish engineers. You guys are trains and dummies. That's awesome. For half a century, apparently car safety researchers have been using a smaller version of the standard dummy based on average male height and weight. But now, thanks to the Swedish engineers, we have a female version of a crash test dummy. so man that is fantastic and I'm glad you guys worked so hard on that and I hope everything works out okay and lets us know how to wear our seatbelts properly in the cars and thank you for that hey if it helps it helps according to this I did not know this when a woman is in a car crash

she is up to three times more likely to suffer whiplash injuries in rear impacts in comparison with a man. That's according to U.S. government data. Although whiplash is not fatal, obviously. It can lead to physical disabilities. And yeah, it can last a lifetime, actually. I'm well aware of that. So if the female crash dummy that they have developed helps in that, great, no problem. I realize that the professional term is a seat evaluation tool and not a female crash dummy.

But I think I prefer personally to call it a female crash dummy rather than a seat evaluation tool. Maybe that's just me. What about a fat guy dummy? Do we have fat guy dummies? I guess, according to this, the Swedish engineers are starting to create more diverse dummies. Okay, that's what I'm talking about. So we're going to have baby dummies and old people dummies and overweight people dummies. So everybody gets to be a dummy.

That's what we want. We don't want any kind. We need diverse dummies. This is a very important thing in life to have diverse dummies. Now, they claim that the safety tests, there's no legal requirement for the safety tests for rear impact collisions to be carried out anything other than the average man. And they're already using smaller dummies. So, I mean, it's the same thing. We're all a bunch of dummies, whether you're a female or a kid or a fat guy or an old person, you're just a dummy.

So we have different sized dummies for those tests. I guess do we need to make it better? You know what? We do. I want diverse dummies. That's what I think I'm going to put a sign in my yard today. I am for diverse dummies, okay? And I won't stop fighting until we have dummies that represent every type of person.

I don't care. However you identify, I want a dummy for it. Because there can't be just one or two or three or four dummies that represent every person. Every dummy has to be different. So, diverse dummies. It's my new stand. I am all four diverse dummies. Boarding for flight 246 to Toronto is delayed 50 minutes.

Okay, well, as long as we have survived the asteroid that just missed the Earth today, let's talk a little bit about space news in November. It is the, today is the first of November, 2020. So we have the month of November. Uranus will be huge in November. I know. Some would say that Uranus is huge. Anyway, at least if you were talking to me. However, there is some space news.

The fourth and fifth, you have the Turids Meteor Shower. Right, the Torids, T-A-U-R-D-S, meteor shower. It's the annual light show in which shooting stars are produced by dust from two separate sources. Yay! Then November 8th, we have the full moon and the lunar eclipse called the beaver moon. So not only is our, is Uranus going to be shining brightly the next day? On the 9th of November, we're going to get the beaver moon the day before. Just saying.

The blood moon will be visible across most of North America and will reach its peak around 6am. then you have the, again, Uranus shining brightly the next day, November 9th. And then the 17th through the 18th, we get the Leonid Meteor shower. It happens actually between November 6th and the 30th, and can produce about 15 meteors per hour at its peak. This year, the peak is going to be on the 17th

in the morning of the 18th when the earth is passing the middle of the trail of the dust left by the Comet Temple Tuddle. So we'll get that. We have that to look forward to. And then on November 23rd, of this month, we have a brand new moon. So it'll be beautiful.

And there's your month of space news. You're going to have a beaver moon. And then Uranus will be shining brightly. You can always email the show Chewing the Fat at theblaze.com. I appreciate all your emails. I see all your emails about theme music for Olmoggi updates. I appreciate it. I did listen to one.

yesterday and I apologize for not remembering who sent me the email. I guess I can find that out right now. So I don't see the one that I kind of liked. There was one mentioning the Rockford Files. Yeah, that's pretty recognizable. Then I saw one mentioning Trapper John MD. Then I saw a couple that mentioned Dragnet, the 70s Dragnet, or Cojack. I've listened to a lot of those.

one mention, but my favorite, I think that actually might work, was chips. So, I don't know, we'll give a listen again to the chips theme, which might actually work for Okamalgi, but if you sent me the chips,

thank you very much. I did get an email from Barrister Oscar Smith again. He is never ending in his plan to get me the money that he believes that he can get me. It's only $4.7 million. And he wants me to know that he's an attorney and he happens to be

the personal counsel of the late engineer Brad, who, I mean, I loved Brad, and also a witness the day he made his last deposit investment savings account before his demise. He needs me to understand as the next of kin beneficiary. I'm on a list of the only family surviving members considered most likely to be related to the late engineer, Brad, and it's my prerogative to ensure that you understand what is at stake and to ensure success. Please note that this proposal needs quick audience. As you can see, it's very important for you to confirm the receipt of the above subject sent from our law firm chamber. Please feel free to text me if you need further verbal clarifications.

Thank you for your cooperation and endeavor to treat this matter as urgent with us. But most confidentiality, while they await your quick and swift response, warm regards, barrister Oscar Smith with an email, a couple of emails actually, and a telephone number and WhatsApp and wants me to get to him right away because I may be related to engineer Brad and I'll be able to get his inheritance estate claim with $4.7 million. So I'm excited. I'm excited that that's a possibility. I'm not going to respond to Barrister Oscar Smith, although he continues to email me and wants me to know that he cares for me.

And, of course, I get the emails with the jokes of the day as well. So I'll give you the joke of the day from Nathaniel.

We found a great restaurant. last night said Joe. What is it called? John asked. Well, they stopped for a moment. Joe scratched his head and said, you know, we've been married for over 50 years. But my memory's not so great.

Help me out. What's the name of the flower that has a really thorny stem? The red one. That is popular on Valentine's Day. Did you mean the rose? Yeah, that's it. Of course, the rose.

He turned back and called out to his wife. Rose! What was the name of that restaurant? we were at last night, Rose. What was the name of that restaurant we were at last night? Probably shouldn't have been picking his nose. That's all I'm saying. Stream and subscribe to more Blaze Media content at theblaze.com
