Blaze Radio Network
And now chewing the fat with Jeff Fisher
Well, starting July 9th, 2020
We are going to have new stamp prices
Yes, the U.S. Postal Service is rolling out a new forever stamp for 66 cents.
The latest price comes just months.
I mean, they just raised it from 60 to 63.
that's not good enough.
We need to go to 66.
We also, operation expenses are fueled by inflation,
so thank you to this administration for doing that, no problem.
A previously defective pricing model,
we need to have these changes right now.
So beyond the Forever stamps that are going up to 66 cents for a stamp,
we're also going to see the cost of sending a first class one-up,
ounce metered letter will rise from 63 cents and domestic postcards will jump to 51 cents.
International postcards and one ounce letters are both set to move to $1.50.
Now the post office has been doing pretty good.
And, you know, the board of governors, which I would love to be a part of, I've always wanted to be
Postmaster General, you know that.
But then I realized the board of governors is the place to be.
oversee the postmaster general.
So that's the job you want.
Now, they have increased their income.
I mean, they are doing great.
Okay.
So they have declined their volume by 1.7 billion pieces.
It's like 4.8% of their normal mail that they cover since last year.
Now, the operating revenue was 21.
$1.5 billion.
Okay.
Now, the Postal Service reported a net loss of only a billion dollars for the first quarter.
But, but that was $519 million less than what they lost the last quarter.
So even though they lost a billion, it was the same quarter last quarter.
year they lost 1.5 billion. So they're turning the ship around. Awesome. Welcome.
Well, I've got some more ideas. I've got some great ideas to help turn this USPS ship around.
Email me, Chewing the Fat at theblaze.com. Or, you know, just send me a letter with that 66
cent staph on it. Welcome. Welcome to Chewing the Fat.
A California company, building.
a flying electric car is now taking pre-orders.
Aleph Aeronautics, ALEF Aeronautics, flying car, has been given a special airworthiness
certification from the Federal Aviation Administration, the FAA, meaning the company will be
allowed to road slash air test the car.
The fully electric vehicle with a hydrogen option for a higher price, of course, is a low-speed
vehicle that can be driven up to 200 miles on public roads and fits into a regular garage,
but it can also launch vertically into the air with a flying range of about 110 miles.
That's according to the website.
The company's model A car can fly forward above the obstacles until a desired destination is
reached.
Uh-huh.
The driver and the cabin are stabilized by a unique rotating cabin design, and the company
touts the car's ability to avoid traffic, fly in any direction,
while giving a cinematic 180 plus degree view for safe and enjoyable flight.
Now, you can pre-order this vehicle, which can seat up to a whole two people.
And I've looked at it, I don't think you're going to have fat guy seating.
But, you know, we'll see.
It's expected to cost $300,000.
Now they claim that, you know, after they work on it and get some things, you know, work, get the kinks worked out, the price will drop.
Uh-huh.
Okay.
All right.
No problem.
According to the company, they have a strong number of pre-orders from people in businesses.
Yeah, I bet they do.
Now, you know for sure.
In their pictures of their flying car, they have, they have a renderings.
of traffic moving above road traffic, air traffic moving above road traffic.
I'm sorry, that's just not.
It's not going to happen.
It just isn't.
We have drones flying around the cities, delivering goods.
We have actual airline traffic coming in and out of metropolitan areas,
flying low to land and take off.
There's no way.
The road that I travel, almost every day,
every day flies past DFW International Airport and planes take off and land over the interstate that I drive on.
There's no way that they're going to allow me to go ahead and pop my flying car up in the air to get past a traffic jam in that area.
I mean, you're just going to have no-fly zones.
And the no-fly zone is going to be the city for sure.
I mean, you may be able to, I've always believed that outside of the cities, they'll say you can fly zones.
You're flying car will be able to be used if and when they get one that actually works, which I hope they do.
I love the idea.
You know, who doesn't want a flying car?
But there's no way they're going to allow you to fly this in the cities.
It just isn't going to happen.
It's not feasible.
There's too much air traffic going on.
Now, if you cut back on air travel, domestic air travel from the airlines, you probably could get away with it in sub-cities.
because people are using airlines instead of flying cars now.
Maybe, you know, I don't know, 30 years down the road we get to that point, maybe.
I mean, we're already concerned that flights are being postponed and canceled and delayed
and weather is holding up flights and people are hanging out at the airlines.
And it's unprecedented.
Well, it's unprecedented because more people are traveling using the airlines than ever before.
I would venture to say.
So, I mean, you have a problem when things.
get backed up. They're running on such a tight schedule that it gets backed up. So maybe they
drive you to the flying car. Still, they're not going to, I'm sorry, they just are not going to allow
you to pop up in the city and fly over everyone. And when they have multiple sales, when you have
multiple flying cars or dozens or hundreds, there's no way they're going to allow that in the
cities. It just isn't going to happen. And you think you're paying a lot for auto insurance now.
think again, my friend, because there's a lot of money to be had in the flying car insurance industry.
You can count on that because one guy crashes into the interstate where there's a backup.
There's already a backup, so you're just going to hop up in the air and fly over it and you crash.
They're just not going to allow it.
They just aren't.
I mean, I want them to, and yes, it'd be cool.
and we all love seeing the air travel above the cities and above the roads,
and you think that it's going to ease congestion, but it's not going to happen, okay?
It just isn't.
I hate to bring you down a left, but it just, it's not going to happen.
Good luck. God bless, though.
So we still don't know whether it was cocaine or not at the White House.
We all believe that it is that they found the white substance that sparked an emergency
evacuation at the White House
tested positive for cocaine.
Okay, so I posted a quick reaction,
a quick YouTube short on my YouTube channel
Chewing the Fat with Jeff Fisher, you can go there
and watch that. My first reaction was that, you know, it's not
hunters. There's no way he leaves this dope behind.
I'm sorry, just don't believe it.
But he was there a couple days before, and they went to Camp David,
and that's where they were spending the fourth, and they're back,
and they haven't.
I don't think the White House has, at the time of this recording,
the White House has not responded to what happened at the White House.
I mean, they found this substance.
They evacuated the White House.
They locked down the roads around the White House.
They didn't know what it was.
They called in the hazmat team.
And then we were told that they discovered that it was cocaine,
this cocaine hydrochloride, which is usually, you know,
it's used for a local anesthetic during mine.
or surgical procedures of the mouth, nose, and throat,
but is that what it's for?
Uh-huh.
Now, it's fun to think that it's hunters,
but it's also, you know, fun to think that somebody at the White House is doing rails
coming up with these stupid ideas, you know, doing rails in the library.
That's where they claim to have found it.
What are the odds?
And this is just me thinking out loud now.
There's a couple of different ways that this could go.
Right.
The first way is that it wasn't hunters and where we know,
who it might be but because of legalities we're not saying anything and you know we'll let you know in the future when it's resolved because they have to know who at least who it could belong to all right they have video cameras of who entered and left the area where the cocaine was found now they have so you have that you have it's hunters and boy he went off the wagon it's just terrible and we've got to put him in rehab you can't talk to him you can't find out what's going on
I can't do anything.
He's just in rehab.
He's gone.
Okay.
Maybe.
Maybe.
Or you have, while it wasn't cocaine, I can't believe that this was all crazy.
The substance they found in the library was a cleaning substance left there by Juan Julio Igleses,
who cleans the library at the White House.
And he left it there because he was coming back and then he forgot it and left it in the library.
It's a cleaning substance.
they use on the tables there.
What are the odds that that happened?
I would say pretty good.
I would say pretty good that it's not cocaine.
It was falsely reported that it was cocaine
and that it was the substance
was some sort of cleaning substance.
And we're sorry about it.
It's not cocaine.
Now, if that is true,
will you believe it?
Because I will have a hard time believing that.
But those are some of the things that are going to come out of this debacle at the White House,
where we think that that's possible, right?
We just, that it's possible that the cocaine was found at the White House.
It's suspected cocaine was found at the White House.
A wiped substance was found and it was falsely reported that it was cocaine.
Okay. You know, could it happen?
100%.
All right, let's go to the break room.
I need something cold to drink desperately.
Okay, so we have the writer's strike still ongoing in the entertainment industry.
The Screen Actors Guild, Sag After, was 100% behind the writers.
And we are going to strike with you.
Well, not so fast.
They said, well, we can, we can lengthen the process.
We'll, we'll lengthen the deadline to agree to a new contract.
We'll take that to July 12th.
So we have another week or so before SAG-A-After is going to go on strike.
Then in California, we have a contract between workers and hotels that officially expired over the weekend.
And they walked out.
The bargaining with Unite here, Local 11, over the past several weeks on a new labor agreement to replace the current agreement?
No, sorry about it.
96% of union members approved a strike authorization on June 8th, and that's exactly what they did.
Negotiators are they're trying to secure for an immediate $5 an hourly raise with an additional $3 an hour in subsequent.
years along with improvements in health care and retirement benefits.
So they walked out.
They represent more than 60 hotels.
The coordinated bargaining group was most recently negotiating on behalf of the 44 of the other unionized hotels.
The other 21 hotels said, yeah, we'll do whatever they do.
That's fine with me.
Oh, okay.
So what happened?
Well, 15,000 workers at 65 major hotels in Los Angeles and Orange County have been trying to negotiate a new contract.
And so now on Saturday night this past weekend, they walked out.
The strike includes workers at Southland hotels like the Intercontinental in downtown L.A., the J.W. Marriott, L.A. Live, Millennium Biltmore Hotel, Hotel Figueroa, L.A. Meridian.
You get the idea.
all the major hotels.
And they say we're aware that some of the associates at several downtown and west side hotels are engaging in a work stoppage.
Well, we expected this.
And we are fully prepared to continue to operate these hotels and to take care of our guests as long as this disruption lasts.
Are you, though? Are you really?
We also remain available to meet with the union whenever its leaders decide to make themselves available to resume negotiations.
Okay. All right. No problem. Good luck. God bless. Because I feel like maybe you aren't.
There's a lot of people that are going to be working because they need jobs. But are you getting the best work you can out of your hotel workers for people that aren't ordinarily doing those jobs?
I don't know. What am I fighting for the union now? It looks that way. Also, the United Postal Service,
the UPS looks like they're gearing up to strike.
I thought we had this thing settled.
I thought we were good.
We made a deal to put AC in the new trucks.
We made a deal to put fans in the old cars and the old trucks.
And we were good to go, right?
No.
The Teamsters Union, which represents the 340,000 full and part-time drivers,
loaders and package handlers, said, yeah, we're walking away.
Efforts to iron out the new contract.
we can't.
You people are just pissing us off.
So the contract due to expire the end of this month.
And so they could go on strike.
I'm sorry, the work stoppage could happen soon.
The deadline is the deadline I thought was the end of this last month, June 30th.
And they were supposed to bring their best offer to the table.
But they said that if this is,
your best offer. We spit on your best offer, okay?
So that strike could be coming.
I remember back in 1997, UPS, they went on strike for 15 days. Wow.
And that led the company to lose $850 million.
And really, I mean, I know that they cost them to lose $850 million.
But how it affected America.
I mean, we depend on UPS, I probably more now than we did in 1997.
So, okay, we'll see.
I'm not happy about these strikes.
I'm not happy, but get to work.
What are you doing?
We need you out there, especially you writers and actors and producers.
We've got content to get to.
We have got content to get to.
And speaking of content, a couple of things we talked about last week
before we went on the 4th of July holiday days off,
Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny.
They claim bombed.
It's $130 million globally.
I mean, it's, you know,
they expected a lot more from Dial of Destiny.
I'm being told, I did not go see it,
I'm being told by people who saw it
that it was not as bad as everyone was saying.
So maybe it'll make some ground
once people realize that it's not as bad
is what they thought.
Then we have the Barbie movie,
which we talked about,
also is now being banned in Vietnam.
Oh no.
Oh, no.
We won't be able to see Barbie in Vietnam.
It's Vietnam, Jeff.
Yeah, I know.
I got it.
So apparently there's a scene of a map
depicting disputed territory
in the South China Sea.
And they're not going to show the movie
in Vietnam because of them.
that.
Oh, okay.
And it looks like Stanley Tucci is looking to get canceled because he did an interview on BBC.
And in fact, it was the great BBC Radio 4's Desert Island Discs, which is, I mean, who doesn't listen to that.
Anyway, he was asked about the debate on straight actors portraying gay characters.
Oh, okay.
So he said that he believes that as an actor,
you're supposed to play different people.
Wait, what?
Yeah, he said, you just are.
That's the whole point of it.
Yeah, hello.
Now, Stanley, of course, has played gay characters before.
He played with his face and the devil wears Prada.
And then the other movie Supernova, where he played.
that was some kind of
they were messing with dementia
and stuff, right? And they were gay characters. Anyway,
so he's played gay characters before. But he believes that
as an actor, you're supposed to play different people. Yes, that's what we've been
saying. Thank you, Stanley.
Come on. I mean, we have, you know,
Hollywood has cast actors in heterosexual relationships for gay roles.
You think?
Really? I mean, they name in this article, Heath Ledger and Jay Gillinghall,
broke back Mountain, Kate Blanchett, fell in love with the shop girl and Carol.
Benedict Cumberatch recently played a sexually repressed cowboy in the 2021,
The Power of the Dog.
And he also played Alan Turing in the imitation game.
And so these people were all hailed as great performances.
And so they're saying that, you know, it's minority actors.
hey we've struggled to get cast in Hollywood
well maybe you've become a better actor
well
we've got to if you're gonna have a transgender character
you can't be anything but transgender to have that
particular role well if you're a bad actor
uh no we need someone who can act please
that would be nice so and I know that
I know that what's his face
got his
into a lot of trouble for his gay character that he played.
You know, what's his face that's leaving his late night talk show?
James Gordon, that's right.
He was criticized for his flamboyant, faded Broadway star in the prom.
And they called his performance insulting and offensively miscast.
So he didn't take Giddle Over as well as Heath and Jake and Kate.
and Benedict.
Sorry about that, James.
We love you, but not that much.
Boarding for Flight 246 to Toronto is delayed 50 minutes.
Ugh, what?
Sounds like Ojo time.
Play Ojo? Great idea.

So who died today?
Who died today?
Well, we're going to start off with oldest to youngest today, okay?
It's quite the obituary section, actually.
A bluegrass legend, Bobby Osborne, one half of the Osborne brothers passed away at the age of
91.
The Osborne brothers best known for their version of a Rocky.
Top, which was Tennessee's state song in 1982.
The group has been members of the Grand Ole Opry since 1964,
and they were inducted into the Bluegrass Music Hall of Fame in 1994.
Bobby Osborne, rest in peace at the age of 91.
Then, let's go to Alan Arkin.
I was so bummed.
Not that I wasn't bummed for Bobby, but I was so bummed for Alan Arkin.
passed away at the age of 89.
Very sad. He's done such great work.
He won the Oscar for Little Miss Sunshine.
I loved him in the Kaminsky Method on Netflix.
If you have not seen the Kaminsky Method, my gosh, it is really, really good.
It's with Michael Douglas and Alan Arkin is one of the big co-hosts,
and it's really, really good.
my gosh, I just
very sad that Alan Arkin
passed away at the age of
89, rest in
peace. Then, we
have ex-W-E star
Darren Drozdov
dead at the age of
54. You remember Darren
Drozdov, who was
paralyzed after suffering an injury
during a match at 1999.
He has passed
away at the age of 54.
So, yeah, he was
in the NFL for a few years.
Then he went to WWE, and he was on the verge of actually being a superstar in the WWE,
and then he broke his neck on the mat, paralyzed from the neck down.
Now, he eventually gained movement in his arms and upper body, but he would still require
a wheelchair to get around for the rest of his life.
He did, though, remained steadfast, that Brown, D.Lo Brown, who was,
in the ring with him at the time
was not to blame
for the incident and the two stayed friends
for years. So
very sad. Darren
Drozdof,
former W.W.E. star
dead at the age of
54. Then we have
bodybuilder Joe Linder
who has passed away
at the age of 30
from an aneurism.
Wow. Now they allege
that heavy metal found in his
blood during his routine blood work after receiving, you know, four jabs.
Now, you can, you know, say that if you want.
That's not me saying that.
That's not me saying that.
That's what the story says.
And so I saw some interviews with him, and he had talked about having the blood sucked out
of his body and put back in.
And he talked about having four jabs, and he believed that that was the cause of it.
I don't know.
Joe Linder, dead at the age of 30.
Then we had Robert De Niro's grandson, Leandro De Niro, dead at the age of 19.
They claimed possible overdose, but he was found in an apartment that he was house sitting for,
found sitting dead in a chair inside the apartment.
Friends hadn't heard from him, so they went to check on him.
and very sad that this 19-year-old boy would pass away from a drug overdose.
And, you know, they, of course, have asked for privacy.
It's De Niro's grandson.
But very sad that Leandro De Niro dead at the age of 19, rest in peace.
In our not dead yet segment, Madonna has been deemed well enough.
to return home from the hospital following her health scare last week with her bacterial infection.
But she remains in bad condition.
Man, they are saying that, you know, after she was admitted to intensive care with the bacterial infection,
she was there for several days, and then they went ahead and sent her home.
And so, you know, she's home now.
But we're told that she is not done.
doing well at all.
She's been vomiting uncontrollably
since being released from the ICU.
I just want to go on the record
as saying that's not good.
You can't quote me on that.
If you are vomiting uncontrollably,
that's not good.
And so she's still bedbound.
We don't know what the heck is going on with Madonna.
They're saying now that the tour,
the full tour isn't canceled.
Maybe some of them.
she's saying that, or at least it's being reported,
that she's saying that she wants to be back at it
and get this tour done.
Her longtime friend, Rosie O'Donnell,
took to Instagram to provide a welcome update
that implied the singer was on her way to recovery.
So her tour cancellation,
a news about Madonna's tour cancellation,
she said herself and men,
Matt doing she, the picture she shared on Instagram was her doing yoga with Madonna on her show,
the Rosie O'Donnell Show.
I don't know.
I've seen Rosie lately.
I don't know that she's still doing yoga or not.
Could be wrong.
Could be just me.
Maybe she's, you know, maybe she does yoga every day.
I don't know.
But Madonna, you know, certainly, according to people that work with her, believe she is invincible.
And she's been wearing herself just thin over the past.
couple of months. So we're really concerned about her health. And as well, you should be.
She's 64 now. She was unresponsive. And then she spent days in the hospital in the ICU.
And then we sent her home. And if she continues to be home and I'm sure, you know,
obviously under a doctor's care, the nurse's care, I get that. But if you're vomiting uncontrollably,
again, you can quote me on this, that's not good.
what is good if you live in Australia
you can get MDMA
and psilocybin now
prescribed to you
if you have PTSD and depression
so how many people now have
PTSD and depression
I do I do
so Australia is going to become the world's
first country to allow the drug
psilocybin and MDMA to be prescribed by
doctors to treat psychiatric conditions including depression and PTSD.
That's post-traumatic stress disorder for those of you looking to write it out in full when
you go to get the prescription.
But many scientists are concerned that the research has not yet conclusively shown that these
drugs are safe or effective.
And some clinicians fear that the regulation that will govern access to the drugs is insufficient.
Oh, no.
Australia's drug regulator, the therapeutic goods administration, the TGA, which approved the move, says that the decision followed a nearly three-year process and included extensive consultation with the experts.
Yeah, so get over it.
Okay?
They did trials.
Don't worry about it.
So if you have PTSD or are suffering from depression, you can go ahead.
and would of course live in Australia,
you can get legally prescribed
MDMA and psilocybin
for your PTSD and depression.
Okay.
I'm feeling a little depressed
and I think I have PTSD.
Oh, darn it.
I don't live in Australia.

For those of you listening live, today is the 5th of July, 2023.
Meta, Facebook, is going to start their threads,
which is their competitor to Twitter,
expected to launch tomorrow,
the 6th of July, 2023.
So, I mean, that's what Facebook does.
I'm sorry, what meta does.
They have their stories, which is a Snapchat clone,
which now accounts for more than 25% of Instagram's global ad revenue.
Wow.
And Reels, which is the TikTok impersonator,
which, I mean, it's helping keep people on Instagram.
even though a lot of reels are just old TikToks.
I mean, you can post it on there and get more views.
Amazing.
Place with reels doubled in six months, thanks to the Meta's AI Discovery Engine.
Yeah, no kidding.
So threads is going to be, we'll see if it works.
So who knows, it's a text-based product, which is what Twitter is.
You know, Facebook and Instagram really is a video component with it.
So I don't know that threads is going to go over good with the Instagram crowd,
but it could.
But one of the things that I read in the story about how he needs to make it succeed,
and by he, I mean, Zuckerberg.
Okay, so if they convert 18%, that seems small, man.
If they can convert 18% of Instagram users to threads,
then he'll create a new app the same size as Twitter.
So all they need is 18% of the Instagram users to go over to threads.
And they're already as big as Twitter.
Holy cow.
I mean, that might work.
Zuck might be able to pull this off.
So I may have to sign up for threads just to see how it goes.
So, you know, I'll try to get at Jeffrey JFR or just Jeffrey on threads.
I'll let you know tomorrow or the next day or whenever it launches.
Okay, I did get an email.
A couple emails I'm going to share with you here on the show at Chewing the Fat at theblaze.com.
This email for money opportunity, man, times are tough.
Times are tough.
This email, but usually they tell me how much money I'm going to make, you know, what's going to happen,
how much if you come through you're going to get so many of these millions of dollars.
Now we're down to, well, maybe not so.
much. Here's the email from a former email form F-O-R-M, so it's not from. So this misspellings kind of,
you know, fool the algorithm a little bit. So email form, Captain Mojika Moore at the email
address. I am writing you for a partnership relation with you. If you are willing to show me your
honesty and trust to handle this for me.
just a few days ago I discovered one package containing American dollars in one of the bases in Ukraine.
That package has been deposited with a finance slash security company in Ukraine.
I want to assist me, I want you to assist me in receiving the fund in the package before I come over and join you.
Well, how much is it in the fund?

from Darrell, who emailed me this at
Chewing the Fat at theblaze.com.
A pirate
walked into a bar and the bartender said,
hey, I haven't seen you in a while. What happened?
You look terrible. What do you mean? I feel fine.
What about that wooden leg? You didn't have that
before. Well, we were in a battle and I got
hit with a cannonball, but I'm fine now.
Well, okay, but what about that hook?
What happened to your hand?
Well, said the pirate, we were in another battle, and I boarded a ship,
but got into a sword fight, and my hand was cut off.
I got fitted with a hook.
I'm fine, really.
What about that eye patch?
Pirates said, ah, one day, we were at sea, and a flock of birds flew over.
and I looked up and one of them crapped right in my eye.
Oh, the bartender says, you're kidding.
You're kidding.
You launched your eye from bird crap?
Yeah, that was my first day with the hook.
That was my first day with the hook.
Oh, it just, well, it's kind of funny.
It's kind of funny.
