And now
Chewing the Fat with Jeff Fisher
So the phrase nickel and dime
You nickel and dime someone
According to the internet
of idioms
nickel and dime
If someone nickels and dimes
Someone or something
They harm them
By continually taking small amounts of money
away from them
Or by continually making
Small changes
or
requests.
I don't know what made me think about nickel and
diming people, but I did
see where American Airlines
announced it's raising the cost to
check your first bag
from $30 to $35.
And if you book it
online, that's $30 to
$35. If you do it
at the airport, that's $40.
So, there's
that. The
announcement came shortly after
JetBlue and Alaska
Air
airlines made similar changes as part of an industry-wide effort to juice bag prices to offset
higher costs for fuel and labor.
And they were concerned about merging airlines and it costing people more if the airlines
were together.
No, they'd do it at the same time anyway.
It doesn't matter whether it's one company or not.
Now, according to the latest report, the global bag fee revenue was more than $33 million.
Okay.
Now, I don't, but it's only 4.1% of the global airline revenue.
And they're trying to up that by nickel and diming you and me.
I mean, I realize that...
But see in today's world with inflation, $5 and $10 is actually nickel and diming you in today's world.
Every time you turn around, everything is just another five bucks, another $10.
So just get used to it.
If you haven't been used to it already, get used to it now because there seems to be no end in sight.
Welcome. Welcome to Chewing the Fat.
I see where the FBI, in need of, well, in need of good press, the headline is,
the FBI helped take down the world's most infamous cybercriminal group.
So an international operation, according to this story, led by the FBI and the UK's
national crime agency dealt a major blow to the ransom.
gang Lockbit
arresting two people in the U.S.
and two others in Poland and
Ukraine while charging two more
Russian nationals. Lockbit
has caused billions
of dollars of damages by forcing
its targets, many of them
major companies, to pay
ransoms to
decrypt Malaysia software.
Yeah, the law enforcement
agencies also seized
lockbit websites on the
dark web and obtained keys that
will help victims decrypt their computers.
We have hacked the hackers.
NCA Director General Graham Bigger told reporters.
So we're quoting the UK's National Crime Agency,
uh, his, their director, not the FBI director, but the FBI helped them.
Okay. All right. Well, good, good.
Uh, lock bit.
is considered to be the world's most prolific ransomware ring
and it's responsible for more than 40%
of global ransomware attacks
and it has extorted more than $120 million.
That's it?
Hold on. It's extorted $120 million.
Is that with this story?
I've got to click the link now because the headline says
$120 million.
That seems low.
Yeah, that's what they say.
2,000 victims worldwide
extorted over 120 million in payments
Instead of listing data stolen from ransomware victims
who didn't pay,
LockBick's victim's shaming website
Now offers free recovery tools
As well as news about arrests and criminal charges
involving LockBid affiliates
So I thought this was Operation Kronos
The Law Enforcement agency
We might need Canon music for this
Tonight's episode, Operation
Coronos.
The law enforcement action involved the seizure of nearly three dozen servers,
the arrest of two alleged lock bit members,
the unsealing of two indictments,
and release of free lock-bid decryption tool right,
and the freezing of more than 200 cryptocurrency accounts
is thought to be tied to the gang's activity.
120 million.
That seems like a low, low, low, low.
What's the other hacker group?
You know, not anonymous.
of course it's anonymous was the big hacker group but there was the other Russian one
that was the big hacker that were hacking all these businesses here in the U.S.
And I feel like that was a lot more than 120 million.
So I mean, congratulations are in order to the FBI and the UK's national crime agency,
the FBI and the NCAA from the UK.
but I feel like $120 million,
I spit on $120 million hacker group.
Okay, so I don't think that LockBit
was one of the most prolific ones,
but what do I know?
As long as our agencies are worried about crime,
I see a story where the Somali pirates are back in action.
They're back attacking, according to this story,
at levels not seen in years.
So good for the Somali pirates.
So we've got those to worry about.
And they're talking about a crew of a cargo ship was forced to abandon their vessel
after being attacked by the hoodies in the Red Sea.
And the first time a crew had to abandon a ship since the militant group began striking commercial vessels last year.
Okay.
So I have a couple questions.
All right.
So how many hoodies are there?
Seriously.
Every time I turn around, I keep talking about it.
They keep telling me this is a small militant group of hooties.
and then all I hear is them attacking
the places all over the world.
I mean, let's end this thing.
If there's two or three hoodies,
let's put them down.
Let's get this over with.
How many hoodies are they?
That's my question today.
How many hoodies are there?
And how many Somali pirates are there?
There can't be that many.
So if you're shipping goods and services,
or goods, on your ships around the world,
either in the Red Sea,
around the Cape of Africa, I don't know, have some security.
And when the two or three hoodies show up
and the half a dozen Somali pirates show up,
how about we put them down?
And we just end this thing right then.
Okay?
All right, did I just solve it for you?
You're welcome.
Oh, and I know.
I know.
You're looking at me like, what?
You told us to put down the Somali pirates and the hoodies?
Yeah, I know.
hooties, I got it. Yes, I told you to put down the hooties, and you expected to hear the gunshot,
didn't you? But I'm saving the gunshot because, I mean, I have a story on Alec Baldwin today,
and that's when you will hear the gunshot. Okay, so relax. Plus, maybe if we put down some
of these pirates, we wouldn't have drug shortages. Uh, you know, maybe the shipping industry could
get us our drugs here in America in a timely fashion. I mean, drug shortages hit a
record high.
The shortages hit a record high.
I've got to say that correctly.
This past December and is causing severe disruptions in medical treatments.
There's delays, treatment cancellations, and, yes, the unfortunate rationing of vital
medications.
Even drugs as important as the antibiotic amoxicillin are in short supply right now, along
with 294 others.
Just amazing.
It's just an example of why you need the...
Jace case. It's a personalized emergency kit that contains five essential antibiotics that treat
the most common and deadly bacterial infections. Now, Jace is continually working to expand their

So anyone in the Seattle area, I don't know if you know this or not,
but I saw a post from Lucas Nelson, Willie Nelson's son,
and he was robbed in Seattle.
And I don't know if he did the show.
I don't know if they found it yet.
But he made a post.
I saw his post on X.
And his son, Lucas says, hey, we're in Seattle and our stuff got robbed.
So, I mean, if you know anybody,
that knows anything, you know, let us know.
Everybody, Lucas here.
Bad news.
Our truck with all of our equipment
got stolen last night.
I know.
The hotel.
Did you have the weed with you?
We've got rental equipment now.
Oh, yeah, okay.
And we will play the show tonight.
All right, good.
There you go.
But if you're in the Seattle area.
Right.
And you hear about any guitars
being pawned or soul.
old, my 1956 slash Paul Jr.
Nice. 64, 335.
Nice.
Nachel, Telly, are all in there.
We have a lot of other equipment that's in there as well.
Bases, steel guitars.
Please do you have any information.
Email Lucas Nelson and P-O-T-R at gmail.com.
And, uh, whoa, wait.
Everybody.
That's it.
And then he finished the video.
The minute was up, he was done.
Okay, so Lucas, I know.
Times are tough.
But the good thing is, it sounds like you didn't have, you know, what you really needed in the truck.
And so you still had that available to you to be able to go and rent the equipment.
Hey, everybody.
Our stuff was robbed.
And we got rental equipment and stuff.
We're still going to do the show.
But, you know, if you know anything about it, we got all kinds of equipment in the truck and it's gone.
So you can email me at Lucas something or other and I'll respond.
You know what I'm saying?
I think you do.
So, like I said, just email me.
It's not the Lucas Nelson.
Uh, email. It's the Lucas Nelson and the P-O-T-R at email.com. And you can just let me know.
We're still going to do the show and everything. But, you know, if you know where our guitars or equipment or our truck,
you please just, uh, you know, let us know. That would be great. Thanks.
Should have known better going to Seattle, bro. Uh, you left it parked at the hotel and you didn't have
somebody keeping an eye on it? Okay. I would make sure someone was keeping an eye on it
almost in any city in America, but for sure in cities like, I don't know, what city am I thinking of?
Seattle. I would definitely have someone keeping an eye out for sure. I'll help you out,
Lucas, you know, if I hit the lotto, you know, maybe dad will help you out too. Just call and
Willie will take care of it. Willie's made a plenty of cash.
in his day.
But no one did hit the lotto last night.
So the mega millions rolls over again,
$5.25 million jackpot,
along with that would be $247.1 million cash payout.
That's a new drawing on Friday, the 23rd,
just a couple days away.
If you're listening live, today is Wednesday,
the 21st of February, 24.
And then tonight we have the Powerball drawing,
which is a $348 million jackpot at 164.3 cash payout.
You know, I started mentioning this just out of fun,
but it keeps rolling over.
There's no winner.
As long as I keep talking about it, there's no winner.
So maybe I'll pick a day where I don't mention it,
and then that'll be the day that I win.
I like that plan a lot.
Those of you living in Seattle who have had enough of the crime,
Maybe you need to move.
And if you're thinking about moving,
maybe you need to go to real estate agents.
I trust.com.
You know, real estate agents,
I trust.com is there
when you absolutely positively have to
buy or sell a home.
And sometimes you just have to.
You got to.
You want real estate agents I trust on your side.
It's Glenn's company.
He started it a long time ago
because he was tired of dealing
with incompetent real estate agents.
No one likes to deal with incompetent real estate agents.
As a matter of fact, people don't like to deal with incompetency at all.
But specifically, we're talking about real estate agents now.
And he figured, you know, people probably are sick of dealing with incompetent real estate agents as well.
So he started Real Estateagents I Trust.com.
Buying and selling homes sucks.
It's a lot of work.
It can really be confusing.
And you don't want to be making a lot of mistakes in this economy.
me. The agents that we work with at real estate agents, I trust.com, are the best in your area.
They're the top sellers. They know the lay of the land and the best practices to get you and your family
where you need to go, whether it's across the street or across the country. Most of these agents are
fans of this show. Thank you. And so you'll have something in common, you know, even when you first
starting out. So do yourself and your family of favor and check.
them out today. Real estate agents I trust.com. The name really does say it all. Real estate agents
I trust.com. All right, let's go to the break room. I need something cold to drink desperately.
Okay, I just remembered the hacker group name. I couldn't remember it when we were talking about
lockbit who they claim is this monster hacking organization that hacked 120 million.
and we were doing stories about
our evil
capital R, capital E
small case VIL
doing cyber
attacks on the pipelines
they were holding people
ransom for 70 million
I mean they're the big one right
our evil they're the ones that's the hacker group
I know anonymous don't
don't be mad I'm not
I'm still giving you your props okay
I'm with you anonymous you guys are the guys
you're it I know
don't don't worry about
I don't need to be hacked by any of you.
But it's our evil are the ones.
I mean, I'm happy that we've got lock bit,
and we made a big deal out of it good.
You know, we're hackers being hacked on the dark webinar.
But I just feel like we were claiming that they were bigger than what they really were.
Because it's really our evil and anonymous that are taking bites out of,
giant corporations and bad people.
Right?
Oh, they're the bad people.
That's right.
Never mind.
So I see a story about John Oliver.
You know John.
The, well, they say in this story he's Emmy Award winning.
Okay.
Congratulations.
For his show last week tonight with John Oliver on Max.
It's not on HBO.
No, sirree.
It's on Max.
All right.
So, HBO has decided to stop, I'm sorry, Max,
has stopped uploading clips from the new Sunday night episodes to YouTube the next day,
saying that, yeah, we're going to wait until Thursdays instead.
Okay.
All right, we'll see how that works out.
HBO hopes that you choose between waiting a few days to watch John Oliver
or you need to subscribe to the Mac's plan.
I got news for you.
I am a subscriber to Max.
I subscribe through Hulu, I think,
as the way my plan works.
It wasn't for John Oliver,
and I never watch his show.
Have I seen clips of John?
You bet.
That's how I'm familiar with this show.
I'm not watching it on Matt.
I'm not wasting my valuable time.
on John Oliver.
I have other,
I have other shows to waste my time on.
Not him last week tonight.
Ugh.
You have any writers,
and for one,
a show a week for this guy,
what he's making for Max?
And we'll find out.
We'll find out as,
uh,
how it goes with,
uh,
with the eyeballs looking for
those YouTube clips
and them not being there.
I don't know.
We'll see.
I know,
John Stewart last week has over 9 million views on one of his YouTube clips.
Should they wait until Thursday if John Stewart's show is on Monday?
You know, his show isn't on a network that you subscribe to other than, you know, cable or a streaming platform.
But you don't subscribe specifically to a network that carries his show.
So we'll see.
you know I know John
and he's been doing this show since
2014 wow
holy cow
and so they
concerned that quickly posting clips
to the show on YouTube
one of its biggest competitors
that's what they're pissed about
is that YouTube is getting all these
views for the show and they're
not seeing as much money as they want
to see so they
are they want people to subscribe
I mean I get it you want people to subscribe
to your network
it's called blazestv.com
you can get it
you know
slash jeffy you use the promo code jeffia
you get your discount on a year plan
but uh you know that's what
helps keep this podcast free chewing the fat
is subscriptions to blaze tv
i got it
i understand
but uh we'll see
we'll see if it works out
um they all are looking for eyeballs
for sure
i see where so many pictures
is planning
on four new Beatles movies?
Okay.
One from the perspective of
each band member.
So Sam Menendez from the Skyfall director is doing these movies.
It doesn't say
whether they're going to come out, you know,
at the same time.
Am I going to have to sit through two hours of Ringo Starr
to get to John Lennon?
Am I going to have to sit through, you know,
George Harrison to get to Paul McCartney?
I don't know.
Am I going to be able to see Ringo and Paul bash John and Yoko
before I see the John and Yoko telling me how wonderful they are
and how bad Ringo and George are?
I don't know.
I don't know if I can do it.
If it was an episode, maybe you give me a 10-part series of the Beatles
and you look at the Beatles through the Beatles.
the eyes of each member
in a 10-part series, but
they'll make me sit through
eight to 10 hours of movies.
Don't.
We're going to do it anyway, Jeff? Oh, okay.
All right, well, all right, fine, fine, fine.
Be that way.
Congratulations to Walmart, too.
Good news. They just bought
TV maker Vizio
for $2.3 billion.
Now, if you're wondering why
the store where you buy, you know,
your diapers, or where the Secret Service buys the diapers for the president,
could acquire a company like that because they make television sets,
and it makes it an easier way to compete with Amazon.
So Walmart will be able to sell ads through streaming services on Vizio TVs.
Huh.
So that's a treasure trove of data, too, man.
Who buys the TVs?
Who's watching the TV?
and it all goes to Walmart.
It's all about information and data.
No kidding.
So they,
I mean, Walmart has, what, 11,000 stores, some odd stores now,
and they're looking to compete with Amazon and Google's ad business.
All right.
I mean, it's just amazing.
Are we going to look into it, though?
Because we've already, we've got lawsuits, you know,
talking about.
Target and Kroger with their digital ad sales.
Okay.
I mean, I know that we've got the FTC in several states
ready to block a merger between Kroger and Albertsons.
Fubo TV is suing to prevent ESPN, Warner Brothers Discovery, and Fox
from creating the combined sports streaming service.
And, I mean, even Jordan Santos, the disgraced congressman,
is in the lawsuit business.
He's suing comedian Jimmy Kimmel.
I hate calling Jimmy Kimmel a comedian.
Suing Jimmy Kimmel
for duping him into making videos on cameo.
Is that true?
Is that a true statement?
Yes, it's true.
Apparently, Santos is pissed
because Kimmel ordered cameos.
I mean, you can order a cameo for me
at Jeffrey JFR on the Cameo app.
they're not free
but apparently
Kimmel is ordering them
and I have not watched the Jimmy Kimmel show
but he's using them on air
to mock Santos in the
in the cameos.
Okay.
You know at Debbie JFR
on the cameo app
and you can order a cameo from me.
Just let me know whether you want me to be happy, sad,
glad, bad, or made.
Jimmy?
You need me to do a cameo for your show
reach out. Order it on
Cameo, no problem. As long as you pay
the bill, a cameo gets their money
and I get my money, we're
good.
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.
Who
died today?
Who died today?
day. Well, let's begin
with Maxim
Kuzmanoff.
Maxim Kuzmanoff
is dead
at the age of 28
or it's not him
and he's 33 and he's not
dead. It's another guy. But
he's claiming that this
body found in Spain
is Maxim Kuzmanov.
Remember he's the Russian pilot
who defected to Ukraine
and then moved to Spain.
and now he's believed to have been murdered.
The Spanish outlets reported last week
that they were investigating the death of a Ukrainian man
in a parking lot who had been shot several times.
They described the man only as 33 years of age and Ukrainian.
But in all the stories, Kuzmanov was 28 years old
at the time of his defection, which was last year.
so could the Spanish police have their age wrong yeah guess could he be hiding under a different name
and a different age with a different ID sure could have happened but we are to believe that the
dead man in Spain is Maxim Kuzmanov the Russian pilot who defected to Ukraine now I
I will say that when he defected,
Russian State TV showed a man said to be a Russian intelligence officer
saying, I don't think he'll live long enough to face trial.
That traitor and criminal was a moral corpse.
So we'll see.
We'll see if the dead body in Spain is actually
Maxim Kuzmanoff.
If it is, rest in peace to Maxim Kuzmanoff
at the age of 28 or 33,
or no matter who it is, you know what,
no matter who it is,
rest in peace to the dead man shot in Spain.
No matter who you are, rest in peace.
Then we have Andreas Brem,
Andreas Brem, German soccer star,
Big time German soccer star.
He's won World Cup.
Big time, he is dead at the age of 63.
I know what you're thinking.
You know, he's a big time soccer star.
He's 63.
Had to be that.
Nope.
Okay, it wasn't that.
The news outlets are reporting that he died suddenly and unexpectedly from a heart issue.
All right?
The team.
and his friends
said that he
died from
cardiac arrest.
So it had nothing to do with that.
Don't even
know why you're thinking that.
So rest and peace, Andreas Brem,
dead at the age of 63.
Speaking of soccer, I see where
the MLS season begins today.
If you're listening live,
the 21st of February,
2024, the MLS,
Major League Soccer season begins today.
Lionel Messe and Inter Miami facing Real Salt Lake.
There's plenty of games to be had around the country.
I will say that I did not know this.
I don't know if it's been negotiated or not,
but the Professional Soccer Referees Association, and I love them.
They are under...
collective bargaining agreement and they're looking to get a new collective bargaining agreement.
At least that's what they're negotiating.
So I don't know if they're working or if they're not working and they're saying, hey, get scrubs or they're working and they're pissed.
Because if they're working and they're still trying to negotiate their new collective bargaining agreement, then they're just pissed.
You know, Messies coming in, making all kinds of money.
He just signed a new deal.
and then we have the new J.P. Morgan Chase
gets the naming rights of Inter-Miamis Stadium in Fort Lauderdale.
So, you know, they have the Chase Center for the NBA's Golden State Warriors.
They have Chase Field for MLB's Arizona Diamondbacks.
And Lionel Messe signed a two and a half year, $150 million contract with Enter Miami last year.
So that's what J.P. Morgan said,
you know, we ought to get in soccer.
Let's go ahead and let's name that stadium down there in Fort Lauderdale.
That's after us too.
And then they have.
So good for them.
And good for MLS with Lidal Messi.
I remember, I can just go on,
I just remember when Tampa, I lived in Florida and Tampa had the mutiny.
and when Carlos Veldarama came to play,
I mean, he was the guy.
They brought Valdarama in, and he was the guy.
Man, it was fun to go to those games.
They played at Tampa Stadium, and it was just fun to go.
My son, my oldest son, thought we owned the stadium.
We parked in, they used to, we used to broadcast the games on my radio station,
so we always had tickets to the games.
We parked in the same place, went in the same place,
went in the same gate,
sat in the same place,
midfield right there in the center at Raymond James.
No, Tampa Stadium.
That's not Raymond James.
They built Raymond James in the parking lot we used to park in.
And I just went there, you know,
it just was so much fun.
So anyway, it's memories of the Major League Soccer
when it was in Tampa Bay,
the Tampa Bay Mutiny, and Carlos Vilderama.
I know we're supposed to have a big historic moon landing
happening tomorrow
so we'll see if it actually happens
with the Odysseus lunar
lander that took off
last Thursday was built
by intuitive machines of Houston
and supposed to carry cargo for NASA
and other customers
they're going to land down the south
polar region of the moon in an attempt
to find water
so NASA needs the win
you know they had
paragrine
screw up
they've had to delay the Artemis missions
so they need this win
so keep your fingers crossed for Odysseus
the lunar lander
and plus there's water on the moon
man we need to not worry about building
homes on the moon
let's go ahead and ship that here
let's bring that ice and water back to the planet
earth for us
the humans that are here on this planet
not the people of
once what might stop by the moon
I mean China's talking
about having a robot builder,
making a human base
with moon bricks.
No, you cannot have the moon water.
The moon is ours. The water,
anything that's on it is ours.
That's just the way it is, okay?
We need to make that very clear to China.
And if I need to sit down and have a chat with China,
I will.
I'm here for that.
NASA, reach out to me.
Maybe you DM me on X at Jeffrey JFR,
Facebook or Instagram, Jeff Fisher Radio.
You can reach out on my YouTube channel,
Chewing the Fat with Jeff Fisher.
Or you can email me, Chewing the Fat at the blaze.com.
But, you know, I'll let you, I'll help you out.
I'll let China know that the moon belongs to us.
Okay.
So, back up.
Just a tad.
All right.
And I want to say, I see where the,
oh, what's her face, Bridget Mendler,
the Disney darling.
She was a singer too, I think.
Well, she's got a new startup
that she says she raised 6.3 million.
I would say that she needs a little bit more than that,
but good for her.
She is now the CEO of Northwood Space.
She says is building a data highway
between Earth and space.
She wants to mass-produce ground stations,
you know, circular antennas
that communicate with satellites
to make it easier for space companies to rent them.
Oh, okay.
Well, let's hope that happens.
I would like to say this to Bridget.
If you need a place to set up your circular antennas,
I'm willing to rent my land to you for your circular antennas.
In fact, what I think you should do is put a cell tower in my backyard
and then, you know, put your antenna on the cell tower
to communicate with other satellites around the globe.
How about we do that?
And I won't charge very, very much for that.
But I will, well, instead of nickel and diming you,
we'll just come up with a flat rate and we'll make it go.
Okay?
All right, Bridget, good.

So the first criminal trial stemming from the death of Rust cinematographer Helena Hutchins begins this week in Santa Fe County, New Mexico.
Hannah Gutierrez-Reed, the film's armorer, facing charges of involuntary manslaughter and tampering with evidence.
So they're thinking that this is going to be a preview of what's to come later this year when the trial
of
Alec Baldwin
comes before the court.
So we'll see.
Look, it's going to be,
she's going to blame it all on Alec.
There's no question.
And she's going to blame it all on him.
No, it's not, you don't get to do it when I say him.
Okay, it's Alec.
Or when I say Alec,
Then you do that and when I say
Alec Baldwin
do that.
You don't get to, when I say
him, that's no. You don't get,
no, it doesn't count.
Take it back.
Okay.
Fine.
So the jury selection begins today.
And we'll see what happens.
I mean, she was responsible
for the firearms.
I think in, I was reading
where she had said that
you know, it was too much work for her.
that he, Mr. Baldwin, did not take the firearm training seriously
and was constantly texting, FaceTiming,
and having his assistant shoot videos of him with a firearm for Instagram.
Well, that's easy to prove,
and we're just going to look back and look at the videos of that.
But we'll see.
I mean, who knows?
She's going to blame it all on Alec.
And that's just the way it's going to be, right?
And I think this whole thing is,
and I'm sorry that Helena Hutchins died,
but, I mean, it certainly isn't Alec Baldwin's fault.
So we'll see what they prove.
We've heard a lot of things
of what happened at the rust.
set and how things were run with real ammunition and fake ammunition and drugs and who was doing
what, when, and they were, you know, she claims, Guterres Reed claims that there was, you know,
hey, you know, that she's being cut back from training because they've got to get those
work in. And so training days were cut. You know, she claimed that, um,
You know, she needed more time for training because so much of the,
so much of the movie is being shot with him and his weapons that he needed to be,
she felt that Alec needed to be up to speed.
So we'll see.
We shall see.
We will be following it though.
Because any time, anytime that I get to mention him.
you know,
Alec
Baldwin.
We will.
I think this whole trial thing
is crazy and silly.
I don't even like him.
He's a douche in real life.
But,
I mean,
I love his work.
I've said that all along.
I love his work.
Would I like to interview him?
I don't know.
If I could sit across from him right here
in the studios that I'm recording in now
and have,
and look, Alec.
Right in the eye.
Probably, if he was here live, I might not do the gun sounds, but you never know.
That would really piss him off.
So, I might have to do it just to, oh, need headphones?
Okay.
Well, welcome, Alec.
What do you make of those guns?
Well, it's a thing for the show.
Any time that I mention your name, your first name gets the gun cocking and your full name gets,
well here I'll play it for you
Alec Baldwin
thanks for joining us today
yeah he probably
probably why he's never going to go on this show
so I saw I'll leave you with this thought for the day
so I saw this it's not really well it's kind of a joke of the day
but it's kind of you know I just saw this on my timeline
and it's it's it's supposed to be taken as a joke
nobody told me that when you get a husband
the ears are sold separately
and I thought well
the reason
that ears are sold
separately on husbands is because
there's no off switch
on wives
so if you want us to continue
to listen you have to pay us
a little bit more
again though that was just my thought
as I saw the
joke about ears being sold
separately
maybe it's just me
