Blaze Radio Network And now, chewing the fat with Jeff Fisher. Be prepared to see the doors closed on the UPS trucks while they're on the road. UPS drivers are closer to staying cool. It's about to get less sweaty in those iconic brown trucks because apparently now UPS has reached a tentative deal with the union representing its drivers

to include an AC in-package delivery vehicles. Now, that starts January 1st, 2024. Air conditioning has been a major sticking point in negotiations between the company and the Teamsters representing 340,000 UPS workers. Union members are expected to authorize a strike if there's no final deal by the time their current contract expires on July 34. first. I mean, that's a pretty big deal. UPS estimates that 6% of the U.S. gross domestic product gets transported in its trucks. I mean, they average, what, 24 million packages per day last

year? It seems like a lot to me. It just seems like a lot. So it'll be the first time UPS will be required to equip the company's package car vehicles. And they say in the story, recognizable. Yeah, you know what a UPS truck is, which make up about 95% of its delivery fleet, those delivery, those packaged trucks with air conditioning. First time ever with air conditioning. So it said that it would send the new vehicles to the hottest parts of the U.S. first when possible. Under the agreement, UPS will ensure all current package cars have a cab fan within the next 30 days of the new contract being ratified. And the company will also install heat shields,

which reduce truck floor temperatures and air induction systems to increase airflow in the cargo areas. So you got that going for us. Just be ready. It'll be weird seeing the UPS trucks on the road with the doors closed. are supposed to be open to let that air in. Jeff, that's the problem. Oh, okay.

I get it now. Welcome. Welcome to chewing the fat. Beware, the recent recall on products containing frozen organic strawberries sold at Costco has now expanded to additional SKUs sold at Walmart and H-E-B stores across the U.S. I actually am going to have to check on this. The response is an ongoing U.S. Food and Drug Administration investigation after Wawana Frozen Foods Incorporated announced a voluntary recall earlier this week.

Boy, I bet you it's out of an abundance of caution, too, as we get into this story. The Willamette Valley Fruit Company has initiated its own voluntary recall of select packages of frozen fruit that contains strawberries. Oh. So the additional recalled products extend to Walmart's great value, slay strawberries, grade value mixed fruit, great value antioxidant blend, which were distributed to select stores

across 32 states from January 24th, 2023 through June 8th. Wow, I mean, this whole year, I will have to check on this. I actually do have some of these frozen products in my freezer. I'm a fan of the frozen fruit

and the frozen strawberries for smoothies and for just to set them out and make them on frozen and eat them that way. Best in smoothies, though. The initial recall included the Wawona products from Costco in five states, but nope, boom, we are spreading out, baby.

So the new recall on Radar Farms Organic Berry Trio products were distributed to H.E.B. stores, wow, throughout this whole year, amazing. And yes, I was correct. Wawanna frozen foods. So is it Wawwana or Wawwana? W-A-W-O-N-A said the recall was issued out of an abundance of caution, aren't they all? And that there was no reported illnesses at this time.

So everything is okay. It is most definitely just out of an abundance of caution. Now, apparently a lot of these products have been taken off the shelves, but if you have them in your freezer, you can either throw them away or you can take them back and get your money back, which I personally would recommend. Don't just throw it away.

That's just a waste of money. Go get your money back. Maybe that's just me. So I see a new poll, a new Gallup poll, found that employees worldwide are stressed and fighting with their bosses. The survey found that 59% of workers

are not engaged and instead quiet quitting, which is a term I love. The survey also found that 44% of workers suffer from a lot of stress, and they want employers to engage with their employees and recognize their contributions. Huh, okay, good job, Billy, good job. And I get it. It means a lot.

But the quiet quitting term drives me insect. because that just means you're doing your job. It means you're not doing anything extra. You're just doing your job. Apparently, if you're quiet quitting, that is not to be confused with people doing the bare minimum at work or leaving a company. Quiet quitters are still doing their job,

but setting boundaries. You know, I thought that was a job. I thought that was just a job If you are employed somewhere And you consider it just a job Where you come in and you do what you're supposed to do And you leave All right, you punch in and you punch out

That is called a job All right So I don't know why they call that quiet quitting But I guess we're expected to do extra now 24 seven We're supposed to be online promoting our companies Doing everything I just really really weird

And I know that You know, they talk about the lines between work and home life have been blurred. Well, that was because everybody was working from home. And so I know that, you know, some of those lines definitely got blurred, hardcore during the pandemic. But if you're, you know, if you're at the place of employment and you want to, hey, I'm off now, okay, that's good. That's your job. And I just find it strange that it's called quiet quitting. And again, I know, I know.

I know, I know. You don't have to look at me like that. I know. It's just me. I got it. So we are now coming after the weapons expert on the set of rust, the armorer. Apparently, I know. She had a history of reckless conduct and witnesses, according to the prosecutors, will testify that she was smoking marijuana and drinking on set in the evenings. How dare her? Why wasn't she just a quiet quitter on the set? Oh, wait, that's not how it works on a set? Oh, okay. So she was the weapons expert on the set of Rust.

She was likely hungover when she put a live bullet into the gun that later killed cinematographer Helena Hutchins from that gun that Alec Baldwin did or did not pull the trigger on. So they said in their filing that witnesses are going to testify. She was drinking heavily, smoking marijuana during the, you know, during the shooting at night. And that's when they believe that she, you know, inserted the live bullet into the gun. And she didn't know what she was doing at that point, right? And so we'll see because the, her people, Guterres reads people, have filed a motion to dismiss the involuntary manslaughter charge.

And, you know, somebody's got to go down for this, right? And so it's going to be her. It is going to be her. They've already let dear old Alec off the hook. So somebody's going to have to go down with for it. And it is her. And if she had a history of reckless conduct, then that history definitely resulted in the loss of human life.

And very sad. Very, very sad. And according to the experts, you know, all she needed to do was shake every bullet and make sure it rattled before putting it in the gun. And, you know, she failed to do that. Or she did it and she wasn't paying attention because she was hung over and still high from smoking marijuana. So we'll see. But someone has to go down for this. And it isn't going to be Alec Baldwin.

He's already having hip surgeries and he's home. He's shaving. He's good to go. in fact the rest of the film has already been shot oh bad choice of words uh has already been filmed and so i mean thankfully no one else was harmed in the making of the movie but it's already done it's in the can so someone according to the prosecutor is going to have to pay for the shooting of helena hutchins and it uh it's going to be hannah gutterra's read as far as they're concerned was she still high still drunk taking care of the bullets on the set possible i mean i don't know i don't know maybe

uh we'll see we'll see but for sure uh it is interesting to me that we've already wiped our hands of dear old alec but it ain't over yet all right let's go to the break room i need something cold to drink desperately Well, just some Activision news. I see where Diablo 4 has now scored more than 666. Is that a surprise? That is 666 million dollars in global sales in just five days. Wow.

Activision Blizzard revealed that news about the game becoming the fastest selling ever for its Blizzard subsidiary. one day after a judge blocked Microsoft's planned purchase of the company. I don't know why that means anything to the purchase or the blocked purchase, but it certainly is good news for Diablo 4. And I'll see you. Twitter being sued again. Music publishers by music publishers over alleged copyright infringement. Twitter is the only major social media platform.

without a music licensing deal. Wow. So 17 music publishers sued the social media company after its alleged copyright infringement of over 1,500 songs. The publishers, which represent artists like Ariana and a Taylor Swift, claimed that Twitter handsomely profited by allowing its users to post unlicensed music. Okay. group of publishers is seeking more than $250 million in damages.

Good luck with that. Good luck with that. So because Twitter allowed people to post some songs, and I'd like to know how long of a post that couldn't have been the whole song, maybe it was, that they handsomely profited. I thought Elon was losing money on that thing. So it must have been, it must have happened before Elon took over, right?

They're just coming after him now. That's probably the case. Yeah, some of the complaints go back to 2019, 2018, 2021. They have, they've been after them for a while now. The publisher stressed that Twitter failed to implement a policy to terminate, repeat. infringers. They've had people, you know, their repeat offenders. Okay, I'm sorry,

infringers. Under the Digital Millennium Copyright Act, Twitter can limit its liability over infringements by its users only if it took reasonable steps that provide for the termination of accounts held by repeat offenders. So I'm

sure that Twitter can make a case that they have done that. We shall see. It is, it is, it is interesting though that Twitter has refused to secure music licensing rights because all the other platforms have which is why Universal Sony and a Warner along with you know other publishers all are hopping on the bandwagon for the lawsuit of at least 250 million dollars and roughly infringements on 17 I said 1500 before I think roughly 700 works

So there's been hundreds of thousands of takedown notices. You know, should you get paid for your music? Absolutely, you should get paid for your music. 100%. Should Billy? And I don't want to get into that fight. Yes. If you're a musician, you should get paid for your music.

I believe in that. I'll just leave it at that. And speaking of Twitter, I see where. Linda Yakarino, the new CEO, sent her first memo to the staff this week with the subject line, building Twitter 2.0 together, just bringing everyone together. Good for her and good for them. Oh, and by the way, you're going to go ahead and get sued for $250 million, too while your first week in office. But go ahead, have fun. Take care. You tell us how you're going to bring that 2.0. I'm sorry, building Twitter 2.0 together.

You can always follow me on Twitter at Jeffey JFR. You can follow me on Facebook and Instagram, Jeff Fisher Radio. You can email the show Chewing the Fat at theblaze.com. That's available to you all the time. And you can order a cameo from me at Jeffey JFR. That's not free, but you just order a cameo at Jeffey JFR. I'll be happy, sad, glad, mad, mean, and, you know, come through for you just like cameo does. And you can follow me on my YouTube channel, Chewing the Fat with Jeff Fisher.

Also, I got a reply that they needed more videos from me on my YouTube channel. I know I'm trying, okay, I'm trying. It's been a busy time in my life, and I apologize. I will get to it. I'll create more content. I realize that's what I'm here for. I got it. Okay.

Especially this week, I'm doing, filling in for Glenn back on his radio program along with this show, along with doing my usual Pat Gray appearances. My gosh, I give and I give and I give. But I'll continue to give. So just know that Linda has sent out that new email, which I'm sure went, I'm sorry, the memo. It was just an email. Building Twitter 2.0 together. Yeah, I'm looking forward to working with all of you, and we need to build this together.

I'm going to end up pretending like I'm the boss, and Elon's actually the one in charge. But hey, I'm the boss. That'd be a good boss job to have, too. It's a good gig. Also, congratulations to SuperCuber, Max Park, from California. He has set a new world record. He's in the Guinness Book of World Records.

Good for him. You may know, Max, he's 21 now. He's won over 400 events. He was featured in the 2020 Netflix film The SpeedCubers. He made several attempts to break the record at this cubing event in Long Beach, California. I'm disappointed I wasn't there. The previous record was set in 2018 by China's Yushang Do. And his record was 3.47 seconds doing the old Rubik's cube.

3.47 seconds. And I really don't know the exact rules, but, you know, they have the cube set up at the table with the timer, and you're able to look at the cube that you're trying to make right, and you set it down, and then you go. As soon as you pick it up, the clock starts, and 3.4 seconds was the record since 2018. That is not the record any longer.

Max Park now holds the record at 3.1.13 seconds. Incredible. Just incredible. So you set it down on the pad and you can pick it up and look at it and see, okay, we're good to go. Set it back down on the pad, which I'm assuming is the timer because I have not seen the speed cubers. This actually does make me want to go back and watch the speedcubers on Netflix. so I will, okay, I will. And so I'm sure that when it sets down on that pad, that sets the timer so that as soon as you pick it up, that's when the clock starts.

And he resets that Rubik's cube in 3.13 seconds. Just incredible. America's back, baby. Forget that Chinaman, Yushindu. We've got Max Park, baby. And speaking to being back, Chris Hemsworth is back. and this time he's more pissed than ever. Extraction 2 starts on, begins on Netflix on the 16th of June.

If you're listening live today, today is the 15th of June at 2023. So extraction 2 with Chris Hemsworth being more pissed than ever. He will be back starting tomorrow on Netflix. So that'll be fun. It'll give you something new to watch this weekend. Yes, it will be fun. I mean, the first one was a fun ride, too, right? I mean, that's the first time.

That was a couple of years ago. It was during the pandemic. It was huge. At the time, I don't remember the numbers, but at the time it was this huge thing on Netflix, you know, the fearless black market mercenary. And he's going to embark on the most deadly extraction of his career until the new one, extraction two.

Then it'll be even more deadly than the first time. Tyler Rake. So it'll be fun. Looking forward to it.

So who died today?

Who died today? Robert Gottlieb. G-O-T-L-I-E-B. Who is Robert Gottlieb? Well, he's a celebrated literary editor. and he's dead at the age of 92 of natural causes or so they say. He is, he was considered the electic, the eclectic. Yeah, that's eclectic.

I got to say the word right. Ecclectic. He was considered the eclectic literary editor, whose brilliant career was launched with Joseph Heller's Catch-22 and continued on for decades with all kinds of, Pulitzer Prize winning classics, and he was just a weird dude. He kept plastic handbag. They made a big deal about him collecting plastic handbags that filled the shelves above

his bed. Okay. All right. I mean, that's fine. If that's your thing, that's your thing. You can quote me on that. If that's your thing, that's your thing. I got it.

So he edited all these books, and he was. you know, known for it, and he was great at it. He was born in Manhattan. I love the story of him being a... He said he said he was a lifelong bookworm who recalled taking out up to four novels a day from his local public library. As a teenager, he would visit the library at Columbia University, looking up old copies of publishers weekly and studying the bestseller.

Yes. Yeah. It's just a just a strange cat. Robert Gottlin dead at the age of 92. So Tori Bowie, the track star, who was found dead last month. She was eight months pregnant and in labor at the time of her death. I mean, incredible. They released the autopsy of her death. And she died from childbirth, possible childbirth complications. Wow. She found that it suffered from complications of eclampsia, high blood pressure disorder, that's what that is, and had difficulty breathing before her death. According to this, pregnant black women face a higher risk of preclampsia and eclampsia. They also have the highest maternal death rate in the U.S. And her death is now, you know, firing up everybody to talk about how black women are disproportionately impacted

when it comes to maternal health care. Okay, sure. If you say so, sure. If that's the world that we're living in, sure. You know what? I guess that is the world we're living in because that's what we're in. So, sure.

Yes, I know. That's the world we live in. Like, for example, I see a CNN story about the congressional basis. baseball game. And congratulations to the Republicans who defeated the Democrats 16 to 6. Crushed the Democrats for the team's third consecutive victory. However, this game has been played, I don't know, 114 years or whatever. And the CNN headline is that Texas representative Jasmine Crockett broke new ground because she's the first black woman Democrat to play

in the congressional baseball game. Yay! Except it's funny how they put first black woman Democrat. Wonder what that means. Oh, I know that Mia Love was the first black woman to play in the baseball game. Oh, yeah, that's right. She was a Republican. Oh, gosh, darn it. That's right.

That's why we had to say Democrat, the first black Democrat. So it was a Republican that the Republican. that the Republicans had the first black female playing in the baseball game. But that's not important. What's important is that the Democrats had one. Okay. All right. We got you.

Anyway, congratulations to the Republicans for crushing the Democrats 16 to 6. Speaking of the baseball, I see where Nevada has okayed the baseball park, the baseball stadium in Las Vegas, Nevada, moving the way. for the Oakland A's to get out of Oakland. The state is going to give, the state's going to hand over $380 million of taxpayer funds toward the new ballpark in Las Vegas. So once they do that,

then the team is going to pay the rest, and that's supposed to be like $1.5 billion for the new stadium, and plus the team is supposed to take over. over any of the overage costs or anything like that. So Nevada is only putting in $380 million. That's it, though. I'm that's nice of them. And, you know, I know.

The taxpayers shouldn't be funding any stadiums. I know. I know. I know. But they do and we do. And that's just the way it has been for quite some time. Now, according to the deal, the A's are going to guarantee an annual.

value of $2 million in community benefits. Okay, so that's kind of cool. If they don't, I don't know what happens to them. I don't know what kind of hand slapping goes on. They still have to, the Major League Commission, the owners committee still has to, still has to okay it. And they're going to waive a relocation fee. And we'll see what happens.

I mean, they're going to start playing baseball with the new stadium. in 2026, I think, is when they're hoping for. They've proposed the 30,000 seat ballpark with a view of the Las Vegas strip. It's on the site of the old Tropicana Hotel. Okay. The hotel is going to be demolished, and the people who own the site

are going to give the A's the land free. Okay, something has got to, somebody's got to be getting something for that. right? You can quote me on that too. Somebody's got to be getting something for that. Right. Right.

So they're going to build. It's going to have a retractable roof. It looks beautiful. No doubt about it. It looks beautiful. Amazing that they are going to have a new stadium with a retractable roof. Major League Baseball is letting them build a new stadium

with the retractable roof. And yet we have those dingleberry in Buffalo. Buffalo, New York, building a brand new stadium for their NFL team, and it's not going to have a roof. It is probably the dumbest thing I've ever heard of. And I cannot believe that the NFL allows it to happen. I just can't. The NFL is not running things. They are a non-profit organization, and the teams are separate entities. Uh-huh. Okay. This episode is brought to you by Peloton.

whatever it ended up being. And, you know, he will work it out and it'll be on and on and on. I see his due boy is going to be arraigned at the end of this month, Walt Nata. And that's his valet and his due boy. and the judge told them, yeah, you guys just don't talk about the case while you're together, okay? Walt, you go ahead and shine his shoes and get his Diet Coke and lay his suit out, and make sure everything is fine, but don't talk to him about the case, okay? So we have to believe that that is actually happening.

But, you know, I was talking about Trump becoming president, and then, you know, I joked about him being in a jail cell running the presidency, right? Well, then I was reminded that the resolute desk is, you know, pretty good size. So, with the size of a jail cell, that's a tight squeeze. Could be done, though. It could be done. I don't know if they'd let him extend one of the sides out to make the jail cell a little bit larger. I don't know.

I don't know. But, I mean, the whole point of coming after him like they have and continue to do is so that he doesn't run for president. And he continues to run for president and become stronger. or so we'll see if he actually gets in office. But could he become president while in jail? And yes, he could, especially with these charges because these charges are not treason. So, and I was wondering, well, gee,

I wonder if anyone has ever run for president while in prison. Well, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding. Yes, it has been done before. Eugene V. Debs was in an Atlanta penitentiary serving a 10-year sentence when he lost the 1920 presidential election. I know what you're thinking. Oh, that's a surprise. He lost while he was in jail.

Yes, I'm sorry, prison. But a couple of years before he ran for president in 1920, he was a labor leader and had spoken out against America's involvement in World War I. he was convicted of violating the espionage act of 1917 wow which i'm told some of this law they wrote because of him i heard that i don't know that to actually be true uh he was convicted of violating the espionage act after and the espionage act was of 1917 uh or 19 yeah 19 17 so it was about the time that it would have had to have been written to shut him up.

The prosecution argued that this anti-war speech obstructed military enrollment. Tough! But unbelievable. Okay. Unbelievable. So the 1920 loss didn't come as a surprise to Debs, who had run four times before. His fifth and final run promoted a campaign button

that read, for president, convict number 9653. That is awesome. Four president, convict number 9653. Brought him nearly one million votes, which is, I mean, in 1920, a million votes, wow, I mean, that's a lot. So in 1921, President Hartley,

commuted his sentence. So it has been done before. One has run for the presidency from a penitentiary. And it was Eugene V. Debs. That is awesome. Four president. Convict number 9653. Boy, it'd be cool to have one of those buttons, wouldn't it?

Another man looking to go to jail is the man who got out of his vehicle to yell at and chase a bear. at Yellowstone National Park. Wow. We've heard about the animals chasing people. Now we're going to have people chasing animals. Okay. So it says here that he got out of the vehicle to yell and chase the bear in or close to the Yellowstone National Park.

So if he wasn't in the park, then is that an issue? Is he you not supposed to chase? I mean, who's chasing a bear? Dumb. But I don't think, I think you can if you're at any. in the park you're probably not supposed to. He could face, according to this, six months in jail, $5,000 fine.

So according to the National Park spokesman, Morgan Worthen, he said, or I should know that I don't know if it's a, no, it's not a he, it's a woman. Sorry, Morgan, I apologize. I know you're the National Park spokeswoman should actually be just spokesperson. But Morgan Worthen,

we are aware of this egregious incident and it is under investigation. We are not confident that the incident occurred in Yellowstone National Park. Yeah. No kidding. So apparently the video of the man posted, the owner of the site,

admitting that they were unable to verify the exact location shared by Cowboy State Daily. Love that. YouTubers obviously were, you know, against this guy chasing the bear. But I wish that guy would have just, that bear would have turned around and ate him. Yeah, okay. And they want him, you know, locked up and going to jail for chasing a bear. Okay.

I mean, it's dumb and it's stupid. But if you go to prison for chasing a bear, I don't know. I mean, I kind of just hoped that the bear would turn around and kill him. kick the guy's ass. I don't want him to die. I just want the bear to kick the guy's ass and say, leave me alone. So, just a helpful hint.

If you're going to go to Yellowstone or go to a national park or anywhere, actually, and you see a bear, maybe you don't get out of the car and chase it. I know, maybe you just don't do that. But anything for YouTube clicks, anything for Instagram clicks, anything for TikTok clicks, anything for, right?

That's what we're doing it for. So as long as you're going to go, go viral, go ahead and do it. You know, now that I'm talking about animals, did we ever find out the name of the stupid bacterian camel at the Milwaukee Zoo?

And we were supposed to name it, right? I even voted on it. I forget who I voted for. But they had the three names, right? Padma, Neelma, and Lilani were the three names that you could vote on. And I don't think I ever got the winner.

Oh yeah, okay, here we go, with over 4,000 votes of which I was won. I don't recall which one I voted for. So we'll just say that I voted for the winning name. 50% of the votes, wow. Oh, wow. One with Lelani, and it meant Heavenly Flower. I think that's, I think we actually did think that was going to win. You go back and listen to the show, whatever the heck it was.

But I feel like I felt like Heavenly Flower would win. Congratulations to Lilani, though. The bacterian, is it bacterian or bacterian? Bactrian camel, yeah, right? B-A-C-R-I-A-N camel. Bactrian camel now has a name good for the camel. May as well just stick on animals. I see where the missing four-foot-long lizard,

who apparently runs like a T-Rex, they're being hindered. The places to find that are being hindered Because people are sending in hoax sightings of the lizard That's funny I mean, I'm sorry, but that's funny So the lizard went missing the first of this month Oh man, he's been out missing for quite some time

I mean you'd think he'd be easy to spot If he runs like a T-Rex, right? You'd think that would happen. But no. And I love the idea that we've now started we've now started with yeah i've got a sighting of tigo the lizard uh he's over here and he's not so people are pissed the volunteers are pissed and it's disgusting okay there is a 500 euro reward since this is in england in cumbria has been offered for echo's

return so if you see if you're in the ukk and the greater cumbia area and you have seen echo make sure you report it for sure okay please report it and don't report it for whatever you do do not report a hoax citing okay those hoax sightings are toxic just toxic and i won't have it okay it's disgusting volunteers these false reports have prompted volunteers to search areas several miles away. And it just isn't right. How do they know it's several miles away if they don't know where it's at? I'm just saying.

I'm just saying like so I get being mad that, you know, you're being turug all over greater Cumbria. And nobody wants to do that. But is it Cumbria or Cumbria, whatever. It's in the UK. It's up there by Scotland. I can show you where it is. Anyway.

in the greater area, if you don't know where it is, how do you think that you're being drug several miles away? If the thing runs like a T-R-X, it could be miles and miles away. It's been days now that it's been missing. So, I mean, I get being pissed that you're being, you know, drug all over the area looking for T-G-U-Lizzard, T-E-G-U lizard, Tigo the lizard, but, oh, it's echo.

I'm sorry, it is echo. The type of lizard is the Tigo lizard. Duh. All right. I'm all convobulated here because I want to call in a hoax sighting. I feel like I should do that for the show. It's just call the Pet Encounter Cumbria and say, hey, I live here in the U.S., and I just saw,

echo the Tigo lizard. And I was just ran by my place of business. It ran by. I looked just like a T-Rex. And I think you should send somebody out to get it. You think they'd buy it? I mean, they'd almost have to, right? For the sake of the safety of the animal, just in case it's true.
