Starting point is 00:00:00 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. If you have this product, please do not handle without wearing gloves. and wash your hands thoroughly after handling the product.
Starting point is 00:00:34 What is it? Well, it's hedgehog food. I know it's terrible, but come on. How many hedgehogs do we have as pets out there? I mean, honestly, I don't know the answer to that. The Food and Drug Administration has announced that Vitacraft Sunseed, Inc., a pet food company in Ohio, has voluntarily recalled one batch,
Starting point is 00:00:58 of its sunseed vita prima hedgehog food over fears it may be contaminated with salmonella. The FDA published the announcement on its website, and it said the federal agency is urging anyone who has purchased the product to stop using it immediately and to handle only when wearing gloves. Now, there's been no reports of actual illness linked to the product, so I have to worry about that. But apparently there was salmonella detected in an inspection sample of the product with the lot number 417-429. And the affected product, the Sunseed Vita Prime, a Hedgehog food, 25 ounces.
Starting point is 00:01:38 That's the product has an expiration date of October 18th, 2025. Now, the package is predominantly yellow and white with a picture of a hedgehog in the bottom left corner. I mean, I guess if you have a hedgehog, you know that this is the hedgehog food that you may or may not use. It was distributed in Florida, Indiana, Illinois, Kentucky, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, North Carolina, New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas, and Virginia. Wow. All these places have hedgehogs? Okay. I was not aware that people are big on hedgehog pets. So I apologize. I mean, I love you for loving your little hedgehog.
Starting point is 00:02:20 But discontinue the use of that product, please. And do not handle with your bare hands and wash your hands. thoroughly. Now you can return it, they say, to the place of purchase, duh, for a full refund. Or you can contact the customer service line at the Vitacraft Sunseed customer service line. I don't want to get hedgehog food salmonella. And I don't want you to get hedgehog food salmonella because it can be bad. You get fever, diarrhea, vomiting, stomach pains. It's not good. It does not sound fun. to get salmonella, especially salmonella from a hedgehog food salmonella. You do not want that. Welcome. Welcome to Chewing the Fat. Okay, we have a couple of stories out of Florida where people have found drugs again and a lot of it. And I hope that they followed the rules of chewing the fat, where they
Starting point is 00:03:26 turned it in, but kept some for themselves. But we'll never know because we only know what was being reported that they found. So apparently, a man scouring a North Florida Beach for sea turtle nest, and man, how much fun does that sound? Stumbled instead upon more than 70 pounds of cocaine bricks with a street value of $4 million. Now, the bizarre discovery, not bizarre at all. I guess maybe it's bizarre because it was on Amelia Island in Nassau County, which is pretty north.
Starting point is 00:03:59 I mean, Nassau County is, I think, the northernmost county in Florida. and Amelia Island with the lighthouse out there. And man, there's nothing more fun than going out to Amelia Island and searching for sea turtle nest. Anyway, the bricks of cocaine were wrapped in plastic with a picture of a bald eagle on top. Weird because another story that broke that they found, I don't know, it's a little while ago, down in Florida Keys. They talk about the same kind of packaging that the bricks were wrapped in this packaging with the bald eagle on top. so they were estimated value of a million dollars in brick form, but, you know, of course we have to go with street value,
Starting point is 00:04:38 more than $4 million. So a beach girls were shocked when they learned about the find. Were they? We came out looking for shark teeth, but their value is not quite the street value of the other stuff that's washing up. Really? Thank you, Paula Johns from South Carolina on vacation, I guess down in Florida.
Starting point is 00:04:59 Thanks for, you know, vacationing in Florida. I know you're down there looking for shark teeth, Paula. I hope that you, in fact, you know, turned in. Well, Paula didn't find it. Paula was just commenting because she's on the beach. Now, the picture that they have shows these bricks with the eagle on the package. But then when you go to the other story about the Florida Keys, where they've discovered 65 pounds of cocaine floating.
Starting point is 00:05:31 at the sea, then it is the same picture of the cocaine. They say they found in Nassau County. So I'm not really sure if it's the same Coke or if it's a different or we're just kind of putting these two stories together. But I sure hope that, you know, I don't, you know, look, drugs are bad and you shouldn't do drugs.
Starting point is 00:05:56 But, you know, if you're diving in Key West Florida and you found, you found, cocaine underwater, you know, nearly 5,000 pounds worth $63 million. Maybe you kept a couple before you turned it in to authorities. Just maybe. Now, these people on vacation looking for turtle nests on the beach, they at least took a vacation. I see where a new study, and it happens all the time when they study about vacations that Americans, they don't take much time off.
Starting point is 00:06:33 No, they don't. Well, now, according to this latest study or survey from Expedia, Expedia's 24th annual vacation deprivation report, they surveyed 11,580 people across 11,580 people across 11 countries in March and April and found Americans take the least vacations globally. 65% of U.S. respondents said they, feel as if they don't take enough time off. That's the highest rate in 11 years. Not only do they receive the fewest vacation days each year, averaging just 11 days, but only half of them even plan to use
Starting point is 00:07:13 their allotted time off. Now, we've kind of talked about this before. Vacations, if you get paid vacation and you lose it, if you don't use it, then you're actually losing money by not taking it. But if you get the money, whether you take it or not, I mean, it's either or for me. If you lose it, then if you lose it and don't use it, that's on you. But if you continue, if you get the money and you can continue to work, I feel like that's free money. Anyway, I'm sure there's some kind of process that will tell me that I'm wrong. But compared to the rest of the world,
Starting point is 00:07:52 Americans are almost twice as likely to go a year or more without, taking a vacation. Japan, France, and Hong Kong were all found to have healthy holiday habits. Oh, were they? Hong Kong respondents actually took more time off than their earned paid time off. Oh, that wasn't that special. Now, of course, the number one country for taking a vacation. Say it with me now. Yes, France. They're always number one. They get about a month off. And I bet you they probably take more than that. So, I mean, sometimes we've heard stories where in France, they just shut down. Yeah, it's August?
Starting point is 00:08:29 Yeah, we're all on vacation. We're just shut down. Sorry about it. Oh, really? Yeah, it's on vacation. So, I mean, that's the Olympics. Everybody's going to be out vacation. Maybe they stay open this year.
Starting point is 00:08:40 Because the Olympics are in town. Maybe. Maybe. And we have another story about what's going on in France these days as well. Now I digress. So Americans take less time on vacation. So we have, we have, I saw a story last week that talked about how the bedbug thing really wasn't as bad as what they claimed.
Starting point is 00:09:00 Okay, fine. Then we get a story where they're pooping in the river in France. Yay! So a group of people were going to get together and all poop in the river as a protest, because they are dissatisfied with the government's progress in the $1.5 billion project designed to clean up the river ahead of the 2020. summer games, which will be held in Paris. So the government, I guess, promised to make the river swimmable
Starting point is 00:09:31 before the start of the Olympics in late July. Okay, so I'm at Macron and the Paris mayor all said, Hey, oh, you're going to be able to swim in the scene prior to the Olympics to prove that it's safe. And that's where they're, I mean, the opening ceremonies they're going to be floating down this river. That'll be great. I hope, I don't want to see it, but I kind of do.
Starting point is 00:09:50 So the opening ceremony floats by. There's some guys poop in the river. No, I don't want to see it. Never mind. I don't want to see it. What's that on the boat? Oh, no, never mind. We just don't show the camera on that.
Starting point is 00:10:06 But it'll be fun. It'll be fun to be in Paris this summer. Won't it? Hey, if you're traveling to Paris or actually anywhere when you go on vacation, don't forget that we have some, we have some prescription shortages here in America. And it's not good. And it's probably going to get worse.
Starting point is 00:10:28 And especially if you go out of the country, you may need to have some medications with you. That's why you need the Jace case. It's a personalized emergency kit that contains essential antibiotics and medications that treat the most common and deadly bacterial infections. Let's say you're walking along a beach looking for turtle holes and you dig down with your hands and, oh my gosh, you find a block of cocaine. But you don't know that it's a block of cocaine.
Starting point is 00:10:55 It could be, I don't know, hedgehog food and you can get sick. You may need to get some medications. Well, that's why you'll be saying, no problem. I have the Jace case. Get it now. It provides five life-saving antibiotics for emergency use. Just fill out a simple form online, and you'll get to have it in case you need it.

So the trial of our man, Alec Baldwin, is coming up July 9th in Sanofa, New Mexico. And I have, you know, Ben, all four thinking this is, this case is ridiculous, and I still kind of do think it's ridiculous. And I mean, he is such a, such a douche, but I think this is silly that they're trying him. However, they've released some information that shows what a nightmare he was on the set. And we talked about this before, but we didn't, I don't think they had proof. And I feel like the prosecutors have proof now that he was engaged. aging in horseplay on the set.
Starting point is 00:13:06 He fired a blank round at a crew member. That was, you know, before Helena Hutchins was shot and killed on the set. This happened three years ago now. Wow, it does not seem like it was that long ago. So he flouted security protocols. And according to these new documents, the prosecution plans to present evidence how he was reckless on the set. And, okay, they say that, I mean, Alec,
Starting point is 00:13:34 Now 66, pointed his gun at several people. He ignored safety protocols. And during their, they talked about how they had firearms training and how he wasn't paying attention. He was doing FaceTime during the training. And so, I mean, this does not really look good for him. So we'll see how it works out. I still think it's silly that they're trying him, but it doesn't change the fact. I mean, he is such a douche.
Starting point is 00:14:08 If all this proves true, then, you know, it probably will be really held against him. And I know a lot of people are like, good, good. But I don't know. It just seems silly. Now, it also says in the story how he has started to hurt for money. We talked about this before, too. Sold his $19 million dump in the house. a few months ago.
Starting point is 00:14:35 And now he's, you know, who's hiring him? He's got rust out there, but nobody's going to go and see it really. I mean, do I want to see it? Yes, just for the fact that it's, you know, tied to the shooting. But I don't really care about the movie. It didn't look that good to me. But who knows? And so he's now, they're saying, get this.
Starting point is 00:14:56 So we talked about this. When he did the promo, he and the wife and the kids did the promo for the re-eastern. reality show, right? Now they're saying, I don't know if that's going to happen or not, because he's asking for way too much money. Now, they've done the promo already. I get, maybe that was a precursor saying if we do the promo, they'll pay us. But according to this, he wants 300,000 an episode for himself. And then he wants 300,000 an episode for the wife and children. Okay. Now, reality shows are great. And I got news for, you, Alec Baldwin.
Starting point is 00:15:35 After the first couple of episodes, nobody's going to care. Okay? So we'll see how that works out. But he needs some money. I mean, he's got a pretty sweet lifestyle, and he's got a lot of kids. So we're looking at the reality show to hopefully bail him out and make a little bit of money. Good luck. Good luck.
Starting point is 00:15:58 Because, I mean, he could, he faces, what, 18 months in prison if he's, if he's, he faces, what, 18 months in prison? if he's found guilty? Ooh. How's that reality show Working for you now, Mr. Baldwin? Go ahead. I'll say his name so he gets the gunshot.
Starting point is 00:16:12 How's that working out for you now? Alec Baldwin. Alright, let's go to the break room. I need something cold to drink. Desperately. So did you go to the movies this weekend? I know my daughter went to Inside Out 2. And she was going with her friends, so what am I going to tag along?
Starting point is 00:16:39 I almost did. But they went to a late showing, and that's past my bedtime. So Pixar is a sequel, crushing it. Another $100 million weekend. Wow. 355.2 million domestic, 724.4 million global, second only to Spider-Man No Way home post-COVID and even outpaces Barbie, which had 351 million in its first 10 days. She said it was really good
Starting point is 00:17:07 She really enjoyed it She had a great time with it So I mean it's it's really good for Inside Out too And Disney and Pixar needed that win bad Number two was bad boys ride or die Okay I guess this was like this is the second week for that right So 18.8 million domestically
Starting point is 00:17:26 146.9 in the US All right oh third week Yeah third week for this Okay The bike riders which I kind of want to see. I'll wait for streaming. The motorcycle drama,
Starting point is 00:17:39 10 million domestic in the debut. 13.972 million global. Okay, making the biggest opening for the director. Yeah, but the movie is kind of not a big draw. But I do kind of want to see it. The Garfield movie has been up for five weeks. That's at 85 million. That'll be good for streaming.
Starting point is 00:18:01 My show, Kingdom of the Planet of the Aves, still hanging out there, 3.6 million this weekend, totaling 164 million domestically. Yeah, that's a monster. If is up to 106.106.6 million. Wow, that's another 2.8 million. I heard that was really good.
Starting point is 00:18:19 I don't know why. Okay, maybe it's just, you know, waning. The Exorcism, Russell Crow's horror film opened with 2.4 million domestically. I saw a promo. Just a screenshot out of the Exorcism, and I thought, does he already do that?
Starting point is 00:18:37 But no, and I love Russell Crowe. But no, that's not true. So he had, this one is the exorcism. And the one before was the Pope's exorcist. So I apologize to Russell, man. I apologize. Thelma, Magnolia's action romp, debuted with 2.2 million. Okay, let's see how that goes.
Starting point is 00:18:56 So those are the top movies for this past weekend. Coming up pretty soon, this weekend, we've got Horizon. so get your money now inside out two and bad boys and bike riders because horizon the american saga with kevin costner that's next weekend and that's will definitely be number one and i'm i'm gonna go see it so i'll give you the review of it oh well i think am i seeing it before friday i'm not sure i don't remember the date we scheduled to go see it might have been thursday nights oh you may have a review on friday otherwise you'll have to listen to uh brad and to myself on saturday morning to get the first review of my thoughts on Horizon
Starting point is 00:19:34 on American saga. Okay, so we have, also there was announcement that there's, and I don't know that this, okay, I'm not excited about this, but they made a big deal out of it. Space Bulls, the sequel, is in development. So, but anyway, Amazon, MGM, Josh Gad,
Starting point is 00:19:55 with Mel Brooks producing, wow, the sequel is in development. All right. guess Josh Greenbaum will direct the film from the screenplay. It's in its early stages, and the plot details are being kept under reps. Yeah, okay. I wonder what the plot will be. I mean, it was a cross between Star Wars and Star Trek and Alien, right?
Starting point is 00:20:23 That was the premise behind spaceballs, right? With John Candy and Bill Pullman and Rick Moranus and Melbourne. and Mel Brooks was in it himself. So we'll see if Spaceball's 2 comes to fruition and if it's worthy of actually watching and putting a smile on your face. Then I saw where Apple original films acquired the Jennifer Lawrence starring murder mystery,
Starting point is 00:20:49 The Wives, inspired by Real Housewives franchise co-produced by A-24. We'll see. We'll see. And then there's a new Robert Zemeckis film here. starring Tom Hanks and Robin Wright. I guess that's going to be coming out in November. And then we have a second season for Beef
Starting point is 00:21:11 are now apparently in talks with Netflix. So yay! Oh, and season three of the bear premieres this week. That show is really good. Man, the first two seasons of the bear really good. I hope they knock it out of the park for season three. I'll be disappointed if they don't. So speaking of new shows and streaming services,
Starting point is 00:21:37 five men were convicted by a federal jury in Las Vegas last week for their part in operating JetFlix, which officials say was one of the largest illegal streaming services in the U.S. So JetFlix charged $9.99 a month for the streaming service, generated millions of dollars in subscription revenue, and caused substantial harm to television program copyright owners. Did it, though? Okay, okay, all right, if you say so.
Starting point is 00:22:06 At one point, Jetflix claimed to host more than 183,200 TV episodes, a lineup larger than the combined catalogs of Netflix, Hulu, Voodoo, and Amazon Prime Video. I don't think Voodoo exists anymore, right? Didn't that change over? Anyway, it doesn't matter. So if you had your movies on Voodoo, you had to change them over. I remember doing that, yeah. And according to court documents, the evidence presented at trial beginning as early as 2007.
Starting point is 00:22:37 The five men, Christopher Dalman, Douglas Corson, Felipe Garcia, Jerry Jacray, and Peter Hoover, operated the Jetflix streaming service. The group used sophisticated computer scripts and software to scour privacy services, including the Pirate Bay and Torrance for illegal copies of TV episodes, which they then downloaded and hosted on Jetflix servers. They were charged in 2019 with conspiring to violate federal criminal copyright law. The jury convicted the ban of conspiracy to commit criminal copyright infringement. In addition, the jury convicted Dahlman of two counts of money laundering by concealment
Starting point is 00:23:15 and three counts of misdemeanor criminal copyright infringement. Okay. Now, he faces 48 years in prison. The other guys face, I think, a maximum of five years in prison, and there's no sentencing date has been set. So they're just rotting in jail now, thanks to the feds. So according to prosecutors, when complaints from copyright owners and issues with payment service, providers threaten to bring down a legal outfit, the defendants try to disguise Jetflix as an aviation entertainment company. Yeah, they tried to get away with it.
Starting point is 00:23:53 Duh. So, and these convictions, I just want you to know, from the Justice Department's Criminal Division, these convictions underscore the Criminal Division's commitment to protecting intellectual property rights by prosecuting digital piracy schemes and bringing offenders to justice. And of course, the Motion Picture Association is happy. It's a landmark victory for intellectual property rights. And the Motion Picture Association applauds the Department of Justice for its successful prosecution of five. individuals who brazenly and illegally profited by infringing upon copyrighted works belonging
Starting point is 00:24:29 to ace. I know. I terrible. That's wonderful. Now, the one guy who was a member of Jetflix, this D.R. Julius Polo, aka DJ P. Pimp. Now, he left those guys because he said, hey, I'm not making enough with you guys. I'm going to start a competing site, and I'm going to call it I stream. at all. And his subscription plans had a monthly fee of 1999. And of course, he didn't have permission
Starting point is 00:25:01 to distribute the TV and movie content on the platform. So he pled guilty to copyright and money laundering charges. And he was sentenced to 57 months in prison in order to forfeit a million dollars in criminal proceeds. So I don't know what he has buried in the backyard, but when he gets out of prison after 57 months, he'll probably be okay. But once again, they got greedy. Instead of just shutting it down, when people started sniffing around, they thought, oh, we can do this. Don't know, we're streaming services for airplanes. Uh-huh. And so they went down.
Starting point is 00:25:33 So just once again, American greed. When I got a great deal on a great gift at Winners, I started wondering, could I get fabulous gifts for everyone on my list? Like this designer fragrance for my daughter. It's just $39.99? How could I resist? This luxurious will throw for my sister. This gold watch for my partner? A wooden puzzle for my niece?
Starting point is 00:26:08 Leather gloves for my boss? Ooh, European chocolate for the crossing guard? At these prices, could I find something for everyone at winners? Stop wondering. Start gifting. Winners, find fabulous for less. Be sure to follow me on my social media accounts at Jeffy JFR on X, Jeff Fisher Radio on Instagram and Facebook.

Okay, so last, oh, wait a minute, I got a guy. Who died today? Who died? Who died? Who died today?
Starting point is 00:27:08 Okay, so last week I saw this pass through some of my timelines on those social media accounts I just mentioned, and I thought that's not real. So I moved on. And then come to find out it's real. So a New York City man died last week after he was decapitated when a truck plowed into him while he was crossing a New York City street. I saw the video of the truck hitting this guy and running him over. And I saw the original video shows The truck
Starting point is 00:27:36 Continuing to drive And then it shows this guy's head Down the road He was decapitated From the hit with his truck It was terrible Terrible So I mean, I don't know what
Starting point is 00:27:48 They're teaching people At the Department of Transportation In Brooklyn But they need to teach them better Because they just ran him down Well, come to find out The man that they ran down Is Antonio
Starting point is 00:28:02 Cadigliero, who was Tony Cakes. And also Tony the Dessert Man. And he was the former acting capo of the mafia family. What? Yes, he was part of the Genevievees crime family. Wow. I love the headline. It's probably the post.
Starting point is 00:28:25 I'm not sure who did it, and I apologize for not knowing it. I just remember seeing it Tony Cakes dead. at 86, spent his life looking over his shoulder, forgot to look both ways. That was not funny. That's not funny. See, the thing is, is that the guy is a bad guy, right? And he's a mafia guy. I got it.
Starting point is 00:28:47 And he's Mr. He's Mr. Mafia. And I guess he was crossing against the don't walk sign. I didn't see that. I mean, I looked like he was, looked like the cars were. uh crossing and he should have been able to walk but whatever uh whatever the case he didn't deserve be run down by a department of transportation truck i'll tell you that well then some people would say yes he did okay and no arrest have been made i guess so far because it's to be cake so nobody
Starting point is 00:29:22 cares oh darn we kill another mafia guy what a bummer and we're moving on with our life okay all right if you say so. All right. So I guess he worked as a loan shark for the family. He eventually copped a guilty plea to a racketeering conspiracy charge, served a 13-month sentence. And then he was a foot soldier arrested at 99. In 2006, in Grand Larsity case. Okay, so he's a gangster. Then he got stopped a few times. Big deal. And so the mob lawyer who countericulator was a friend that a client told the paper he became successful in the dessert business after serving his prison time. So he was looking, he was legit. I'm legit now. Tony Cakes. Tony the dessert, man. He was kind, gentle, soft-spoken, very quiet guy. Was he? Okay. Because he was hiding out. Didn't want to
Starting point is 00:30:15 be, have his face on the screen from the Genevice family. Okay. All right. Sure, no problem. Good for him. So that's the thing. Rest in peace, I guess. To Tony Cakes, dead. the age of 86, but so we just don't care that this Department of Transportation truck ran over this human? All right, if that's what, you know what, if we don't care, we don't care. I know the guy was, you know, kind of a bad guy, but I mean, come on now. We got to figure out what we're doing and who we're letting drive our trucks, don't we? Okay, so last week, we talked about how the car dealerships in America, many of them, 15,000 of them actually, the company that oversees their internet services, CDK Global, was hacked.
Starting point is 00:31:04 And, I mean, it pretty much shut down the car dealership industry. I mean, you can still buy a car, but the system is taken offline. It takes so much longer. And dealerships are experiencing the outage risk alienating customers that can decide to purchase from another dealer. Well, yeah. And we'll see. But apparently now, we find out that the hack is. group that hacked into the
Starting point is 00:31:28 CDK global system now has demanded tens of millions of dollars in ransom. Because it's still going online. Because remember first they hacked in and the CDK found a way around it and blocked
Starting point is 00:31:44 them and then the hackers were like, hey, no I don't think so. And now they hacked it again, which then shut everything down. And so I mean, they've parts all everything that a dealership works with. It's very hard to do without this DMS system.
Starting point is 00:32:03 So for them, I mean, it's pretty much a disaster. Now, it says in this story that CDK is planning on paying the ransom. Okay. I remember earlier this year, United Health Group was hacked. And they, it was reported that they paid $22 million in ransom. See, I got no problem with them. Well, first of all, shouldn't be hacked and it's a crime.
Starting point is 00:32:27 I got it. It's terrible. But I got no problem with them paying the ransom. But the problem, I think, is that what happens if you pay them the ransom and then they don't do what you hope that they do? Now you're out of money and you're still dealing with the hack, right? I mean, that's a big, you've got to have some kind of quid pro quo with these hackers. And I don't know that any of them care about that.
Starting point is 00:32:55 So it's kind of a strange thing. Remember, every time I read these stories, I think about the guy that I read about who was the negotiator between the hackers and the companies. Where's he at? That's what he's doing. He's negotiating.
Starting point is 00:33:09 You know what? You only have to pay an $18 million and they'll get you back online. They've promised and I've got their word. So it's good. You're going to be back online. Just pay them the $22 million. So, okay.
Starting point is 00:33:24 I hope it works out. It's the matcha or the three ensemble Ciceroa of the FACTA that I just deniches who energize o'clock? Mm, it's the ensemble. The format standard and mini-regruped, what old are well? And the embellage,
Starting point is 00:33:51 too beau, who is practically pre to donate. And I know that I'd they'd love the Summer Fridays and Rare Beauty by Selena Gomez. I'm just the most ensemble, the Cadoe of Feds, It's at home. Summer Fridays's
Starting point is 00:34:03 Rare Beauty Way, Cifara Collection, and other part of the vits. Procurrevee you these formats, standard, and mini, regrouped for a better quality price, on line on CIFRA.C or in magazine. Big night in hockey tonight, the NHL-Stanley Cup Finals, Game
Starting point is 00:34:16 7, winner goes home with Lord Stanley's Cup. Edmonton was down 3 to nothing to the Florida Panthers, and they were, you know, all they had to do is win one more, and they haven't been able to do it. Edmonton has won the Edmonton Oilers have won three games in a row.
Starting point is 00:34:34 And now we go, we're in Miami for game seven. And we'll see, we'll see what happens. I mean, it's been, holy cow. The Stanley Cup hasn't been, I don't know, in Canada for a long time, alone, let alone. Edmonton, what's his face? McDavid, right? Is that his name? Is that his name, Connor McDavid?
Starting point is 00:34:57 Yeah, I think that's him. He has, he's Mr. Hockey. has all these records, but he doesn't have a Stanley Cup, and he needs one bad. So either Miami wins or Edmonton wins. I mean, you can quote me on that. That's the game, but it will be worth, it'll be fun to watch it. Either way, it'll be a great game. Edmonton has kicked the crap out of Florida the last three games.
Starting point is 00:35:21 So we'll see. We shall see. It'll be fun. It'll be a fun night on the ice. I wonder if the Just Stop Oil protesters have the guts to try to come into a hockey game
Starting point is 00:35:35 and protest because it'd be a real shame if they got, you know, if there was a hockey stick rammed up one of their butts. I mean, I saw them at the PGA championship. They're the same dangleberries that did Stonehenge. It's time.
Starting point is 00:35:51 It's time for you to stop. People, you're not getting people on your side. You're only pissing them off. And so, you know what? But I changed my mind. You need to protest at the NHL game seven down in Miami. You need to do that because you'll get people on your side. Absolutely.
Starting point is 00:36:08 Once you have one of those hockey sticks rammed up your rear end, they'll be on your side. I guarantee it. You know, one of those cool things I do that I see happening, and I guess it's a hockey thing now, although I don't remember it being a hockey thing when I was actually going to games and stuff when I lived in Tampa. And, you know, we'd go to the Lightning Games, which were awesome. And anyway, but I see where Miami does it. And I don't know if Edmonton did it.
Starting point is 00:36:33 I haven't watched every game. But at the end of the game, the top players come out and skate around the ice and give a hockey stick to these young kids in the stands. That's really cool. I like that a lot. Man, you want to talk about giving back to the fans. And I know it's just a hockey stick.
Starting point is 00:36:51 But, man, you give a little kid a hockey stick from a game. You have them forever, man. That is awesome. That kid's looking at. that hockey stick forever. That's really cool. Anyway, and so I like that a lot about, at least for sure, I saw the Panthers doing it. And if that's a hockey thing now across the league, good on you.
Starting point is 00:37:11 And I don't know if the Oilers chick that flashed her boobs is going to be there. They should fly her in. Kate, remember we played the video of her. She was saying F you to all the people. She said, I just got drunk and showed my breast. but now she is being a part of Playboy. So she's going to be at the Playboy Club. There's a picture of her Playboy and a K-8-9 fly on Instagram.
Starting point is 00:37:40 Hello. I hope the Playboy flies her in tonight. So not only hopefully we'll have the protesters at the game tonight down in Miami. We'll have Kate and she could flash us at the game. That would be awesome. What a shame that would be. Wouldn't it? We can't have that.
Starting point is 00:37:58 We just can't have that. But I sure hope it happens. Okay. Congratulations are in order to a super fluffy eight-year-old Pekinese Wild Thang, who is the 2024 world's ugliest dog. Congratulations to Fluffy for actually winning the world's ugliest dog. So a fluffy apparently, I'm sorry, it's a fluffy Pekinese. His name is Wild Thang.
Starting point is 00:38:26 was a five-time competitor in the annual event held at the Sonoma Marin Fair in Northern California, and the Pekingese, whose owner Anne Lewis received $5,000 in prize money, placed second three times before coming out on top this year. So the Wild Thing just got uglier. And congratulations, you are the ugliest dog in 2024, wild thing. Congratulations. Really, seriously, I mean that. You stuck it out. You kept coming back saying, no, I am the ugliest. I am the ugliest. And you stick out your tongue. And there you go. And so now you are the winner. Congratulations to you. And if I've grand for being the owner of the world's ugliest dog, pretty sweet. Oh, and have we, did we find the mountain lion that was wandering around Vegas? This guy just outside of Vegas, in a neighborhood found on his video cam a mountain lion wandering through the yard so now he has the whole community up in arms and the news report that i saw was hilarious because the guy was
Starting point is 00:39:37 he could have gotten my shih Tzu yeah yes he could have and would have had you uh let your cute little shih Tzu out in the yard and the mountain lion would have had dinner so heads up if you're still uh you know out in Vegas and you're in the neighborhood of Well Tower Living Apartment Complex near Charleston and Valley View Boulevards, be on edge because there's a wandering mountain lion around. Now, maybe it happens all the time, but if your Shih Tzu goes missing, just no, blame it on the mountain lion. If I'm a neighbor and I think, man, I am sick of that Shih Tzu,
Starting point is 00:40:17 now's a good time to get rid of it because, you know, do your thing because you just blame it on the mountain line. But that's, I'm not recommending that. I'm just saying that if it were me and I was tired of that neighbor's shih Tzu, now would be a good time to take advantage of that. Okay, let's get out of here. A little is today, joke of the day. No, not really a joke of the day.

I mean, they're okay in the living room and stuff, but they're going to bug you. They're going to keep bugging you because you're laying down. Here you go.
Starting point is 00:41:12 If you want to nap, while the kids are home, just say, hey, wake me up in 30 minutes so we can clean the house. It's possible? You could literally sleep for hours before they wake you up.
