Blaze Radio Network And now, chewing the fat with Jeff Fisher. Ah, the good old days. Remember when you could just go to Amsterdam and head to the Red Light District for drugs and booze holidays? Yes, well, they don't want you anymore.

They have launched a campaign, the stay-away campaign. They're discouraging tourists, planning drug and alcohol-fueled parties, starting with young British men. So their new campaign will involve people seeing special warnings when they search for terms such as stag party Amsterdam or pub crawl Amsterdam. How many times? How many times you have you searched stag party Amsterdam? I know. I know. Me too.

So they want you to stay away. They want to discourage UK and really any tourists from the sex, drugs, and boozy holidays. Now, the online discouragement campaign is aimed at nuisance tourists. Yeah, I hate those nuisance tourists. You know, the people that come to spend money. But we don't want that anymore in Amsterdam. I guess that's what they're saying. They're going to try to clean up Amsterdam, at least the red light district.

Oh, so I guess there's risks and consequences for any antisocial behavior, which there should be. And they don't want the excessive drug and alcohol abuse. Um, it's Amsterdam. That's what Amsterdam is there for. But I guess not. Uh, we're banning, uh, smoking cannabis in the red light district, coupled with further restrictions on alcohol consumption and earlier closures of cafes, bars, and sex clubs. Authorities are also looking at moving sex workers to large erotic centers to the outskirts

of the city. So they're trying to get rid of the red light district. So like I said. Remember when we used to just go to Amsterdam for some fun and some drugs, boozed up holidays? You don't get those days back. Welcome. Welcome to chewing the fat. I'm still trying to get over not being able to go to Amsterdam and take care of a little European business on a trip.

I know they claim that U.S. passport processing times are up. they claim that routine processing for U.S. passport applications will now take 10 to 13 weeks. So, I mean, if you don't have a passport already and you wanted to go to Amsterdam for a little red light business, you're going to have to wait 10 to 13 weeks. Okay, well, thank you, State Department. I appreciate it very much.

I also see where, and this is sad news, actually, and I hope it gets taken care of. female lizards at a Colorado Army base are stress eating. And we have to do something about it. These rare female lizards that reside around Colorado's Fort Carson Army base are stress eating to cope with military aircraft flyover noise. I know. I know. I'm sad as well.

These uncommon reptiles called Colorado checkered whiptails are engaging in. compensatory feeding behaviors with low-flying Apache chin-hook and Black Hawk helicopters and sometimes F-16 fighter jets swoop over their habitat. This is according to a new study published in the Frontiers

in Amphibian and Reptile Science. And who doesn't look forward to the new copies of Frontiers in Amphibian and Reptile Science study magazines come in. I mean, everyone looks forward to that. So lizards tend to have excellent hearing and are sensitive

to much lower frequencies than humans are. Well then they should move. They should realize hey, you know, where we're at is really loud. We should probably move. But instead, the Colorado checkered whiptails stay where they're at.

So we have to worry about it. All right. Fine. All right. So several populations of the Colorado checkered whip tails inhabit the 220 square mile track of land that belongs to Ford Carson. Does it really belong to Fort Carson or does it belong to the whip tails? I don't know.

This makes me think that it belongs to the whip tails. So on non-flyover dates, the noise levels were below 30.1 and 55.8 decibels or which was about the range of a humming refrigerator. And that's good. That's really good. we observe the behavior of 82 lizards brought them in for weight measurements and blood tests as well as ultrasounds we are giving blood tests and weight measurements and ultrasounds to lizards okay uh you know whatever that's why you do what you do what you got to do i know this is a fine group of people at the frontiers in amphibian and reptile science of fine fine people so they wanted to determine

whether they were pregnant and the quantity and size of the developing eggs. By evaluating the blood samples, they were able to ascertain levels of stress hormone cortisol, which is typically released between three and ten minutes after a disturbance. Yeah, so it gets loud, and then the cortisol goes up, and then they eat. So right now, I guess we're looking at a bunch of overweight lizards. I don't know. I mean, what are we supposed to do?

Well, I'll tell you what we're supposed to do. We're supposed to have the military aircraft operators attempt to avoid dense populations of checkered whiptails during the reproductive season or fly at altitudes that lead to decibel reeds that fall below 50 decibels at ground level. That's what we're going to do. And you can guarantee that this military in today's world will do that. They won't be able to fly in that direction during mating season. and when they go in that direction, if you have to fly over that area,

you're going to have to be up a certain height so that the decibel level is lower on the ground. Guaranteed. Now, I will say I'm not opposed to having the Colorado checkered whiptails move to a zoo. Maybe we have the whiptail section of the zoo and get them out of our military's way. I don't think that will happen because the argument will be that who was there first.

Was it the Colorado Whip Tail or was it the Army base? And the Whip Tails will win. You know that, right? So they won't be going. We won't be able to see the Colorado Whip Tail Lizard section at the Denver Zoo. But we should. So I talked a little bit about this on my chewing segment during Pat Unleashed. It is Wednesday, if you're listening to Live.

the 29th of March, 23, the 29th of March. It's my brother's birthday. Happy birthday. Happy birthday to my brother. Don't look at me like that. I wish him happy birthday. Leave me alone.

I mean it. Happy birthday, bro. I love you. You know that. Happy birthday. So anyway, I talked about earlier this on Pat Unleashed. They are resurrecting a woolly mammoth. meatball. Now we've talked about the company that's going to be create the willy mammoth,

which hopefully will have the woolly mammoth, Tasmanian tiger, the Tasmanian devil, will have those in the zoo. I'm a fan. I'll go. A hundred percent I'm there. But now we're creating food products from the woolly mammoth. So using DNA from soft tissue and a frozen mammoth remains and meshing it with that of the modern-day elephant. They made this company in Australia, Vow, which is a cultivated food company that creates meat in a laboratory setting from animal cells, said it has used advanced molecular engineering

to resurrect the woolly mammoth in meatball form by combining mammoth DNA with fragments of an African elephant's DNA. Now, to make it, they said that they used mammoth muscle protein, added a splash of elephant DNA, then inserted that completed gene into a sheep muscle cell where it was grown, along with many more sheep genes, into 400 grams of meat. Yum. Yum. Man does.

that sound good, doesn't it? I know. Well, a professor from the Australian Institute of Bioengineering at the University of Queensland, Ernst Wolf-Tang, said he worked with Vow on the project. He suggested, it's probably not safe to eat. I wouldn't eat it right now. Even if the regulators permitted it, probably would need it right now. So I don't know that I would eat it at any time. But maybe you put a little Heinz ketchup on it and went, you know, I'll give it a shot. No need to worry. I wanted to just give you an update.

Everything is fine in the Ohio River. There were 10 barges that got loose. Seven are contained. Three of them are up against this bridge dam area. And they're going to be very hard to rescue. But they're doing it. One has got methanol in it. No worries, though.

It shouldn't spill into the river. so you should be fine. They'll have some logistical issues with shutting down the river, and so there'll be some supply chain issues because they've stopped all traffic on the river. But don't worry about it. You can still drink the water. You can still drink the water up in Philly, too,

because they've sampled the water at the Baxter water treatment. And they haven't detected any of the chemicals from Friday's spill of over 8,000 gallons of latex finishing solutions spilled into Otter Creek, the Delaware River tributary in Bucks, So it should be fine. No worries. Like I'm saying, I'm just telling you this so that you know about it.

I don't want you to be concerned. Don't be concerned in New York either. The health officials detected the presence of polio virus in the wastewater of Rockland County. Now, don't worry about it. But sure, this is where an outbreak last year led to the first confirmed case of paralytic polio in 10 years. But there's nothing to worry about. In fact, I don't even know why I'm telling you. All right, let's go to the break room.

I need something cold to drink desperately. I guess congratulations are in order to AMC as their stock went up 13% after there was a report that claimed Amazon was considering buying the theater chain. So just that little rumor sent the stock through the roof. So good for them. You know, I talked about the other day, and we talked about it on chewing this morning during Pat Unleashed, how John Wick has brought in $137.5 million over the debut weekend this past weekend and what, you know, how good all the series was.

And they also broke down how much it costs to have John Wick saying the 300 words, I'm sorry, 380 words in the movie. So if you break it down, if you can. got paid $15 million for the movie. He said $380 words. That's $39,473 per word. Now, they were saying how strong the John Wick number four was as far as sequels. Because I think John Wick now is the sixth best, if I remember right? Yeah, the sixth best fourth sequel.

I know. I was looking at the sequels of, you know, movies that have had multiple sequels more than four and how the fourth one has fared. So number 10 was Lethal Weapon 4 in 1998. Right? I know. That was pretty good.

Came out after six years after Lethal Weapon 3. Lethal Weapon 4 acted as the true finale for Lethal Weapon fans. Mission Impossible, Ghost Protocol. in 2011, five years after the release of Mission Impossible 3, revitalize and re-energize the franchise. And that's still going on now. Fast and Furious, 2009. So Fast and Furious is the eighth best fourth sequel.

Mad Max Fury Road? Yeah, wow. I mean, holy cow. arguably more recognizable and popular than any of the previous three installments. Yeah, I guess. I guess. Okay. John Wick, Chapter 4.

Obviously, you know, best one in the franchise and number 6th in the fourth one. Number 5. Live Free or Die Hard. I love that movie. Really good. Releasing 12 years after Die Hard with a Vengeance. Live Free or Die Hard. That was really good.

I really liked that movie a lot. I mean, I'm a big Bruce Willis fan, but Timothy Oliphant was in that. It was really good. Well worth it. I mean, he's, you know, protecting his daughter and her boyfriend. It's really cool.

Number four is one of my favorites, actually. I love, and vengeance is probably my favorite. Live free or diehard is probably second. The first one would be third. Yeah, we'll go with that. vengeance one live for your diehard second and the very first one diehard

is the third in the line of my favorites as far as the diehard series goes the born legacy 2012 came out five years after the previous film is great and number four as far as the rankings for the best number fourth

movie in the sequel Hunger Games mocking Jay part two The Hunger Games saga is fun. I do like that. I'm forced to watch that with my wife. She loves them all, and I watch them, and I like them. I like them all.

I don't know if it's in part two or part one of Mocking J. But there's one of my favorite lines is when Sutherland, he sees them all up on the stage. He goes, look at them, all holding hands. I want them dead. That's my favorite lies ever, man. Look at the holding hands. I want them dead.

Number two, Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull, which everyone hated. But it was, I mean, came out 19 years after the previous film. I know some people who actually liked it. That came out in 2008. And number one, The Matrix Resurrection, 2021, 18 years after the Matrix Revolutions.

So that's number four. And Keanu's in that too, so he's breaking through that huge. So anyway, those are the movies that had the fourth, you know, the top films with sequels, with multiple sequels, and had the best fourth sequel in the franchises. Yeah, I think that makes sense. So Jane Fonda, you know where you love her.

Although I don't. And I don't really know her personally, and I don't like her at all. But she's in the news quite often. And she was just on the Drew Barrymore show. And she was talking about how important self-care was. So she revealed on the Drew Barrymore show that she likes to unwind by using a vibrator at night. Really? Yes.

And she even gave one to Drew Barrymore. more. Drew, I believe, claimed that she needed help in the self-care department. And there was a joke when Jane gave her the self-care item that she used it, pretended to use it as a phone. That's not what you use it for. That's not how it works. You can use it for whatever you want, but that's really not how it's supposed to work. And so they got to talking about, you know, baths and meditations and self-care with an adult toy. And that's special. Jane Fonda, 85, 86-year-old Jane Fonda, still taking care of a little self-care business. She said that she keeps it in the top dresser drawer.

You'd freak out if you saw what's in there. Would we, would we, Jane? Because I don't think I would. I don't think I would honestly But you never know But good news for Jane Making the rounds Trying to hawker movie

And tell people how important abortion is And how important the climate is And go watch my movie And watch my shows on Netflix And I'll tell you about self-care But be sure to watch all my stuff And care about the climate So thanks. I appreciate it

Even though I'm a traitor And you know, hate the military. And I actually hate the United States of America. I'm kind of what you would call a communist. But that's just me. Don't worry about it, Jane Fonda. Speaking of communists,

I see where Federman is expected back to work soon. Senator from Pennsylvania, they, Pennsylvania Republicans have demanded proof of life. Well, actually, they demanded that Federman releases a video to show us. He is alive and well. or face intervention from other lawmakers if he is unable to do this. So, yeah, that's kind of a proof of life video.

That's what they want. He's receiving daily in-person briefings by Chief of Staff. Is he? Or is the Chief of Staff stopping by every day going, how is he? What's going on? He's issuing statements to his office, sponsoring legislation. Aides are open to new regional offices in Pennsylvania.

So everything is fine, okay? Everything is fine. Now he checked himself in. It's common to have post-stroke depression, and it's treatable, claim the doctors. So he's 53 years old, and he started, it just wasn't himself, according to AIDS. He wasn't his usual self. He's usually full of banter with the AIDS, and instead he was withdrawn. He wasn't eating.

He's disinterested in talking. And so we just had to get that taken care of. Yeah, he had that usual banter. I bet he did. I bet he had that usual John Federman banter with the AIDS. Because, man, when he was on the campaign trail, you wanted to be a part of that banter with John. And I'm sure that just carried over once he got into office.

So that's why everybody wants proof of life from him. And we got news on Senator Mitch McConnell, who is being released finally from inpatient physical rehab, from his fall at the restaurant a while ago, and he claims he's planning to return to the Senate soon. So, yay! 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. So who died today? Who died today? Paul O'Grady has died at the age of 67. Actor and comedian died unexpectedly. His partner has confirmed.

The last photo of Paul O'Grady shows the late TV star a drag act posing with a dog in Edinburgh where he was performing a stage production of the musical Annie before his death. And there are several photos in the last few days. He loved dogs. He was a big, an ambassador for batter-seed dogs and cats home and had rehomed several rescued dogs.

Very sad. The Queen Consort, who I guess is just going to be known as the Queen, once King Chuck gets crowned, also issued a statement, and she was very sad. She did a show with O'Grady for the love of, dogs a one-off for the anniversary of the Battersea dogs and cats home. He had quite a career though, and his drag character was actually pretty good. And at one point he played Lily Savage, which was as the Wicked Queen and Snow White and the

seven dwarfs. His drag character made a huge name for himself, herself, speaking out about LGBT issues while performing. I mean, he took over the reins from Blind Dates, long-running presenter. He joined the Queen as he was comedian, TV personality. What were some of the other shows that you would remember him from? Possibly. Hosted the Paul O'Grady Show, Blind Date, Blankety Blank, as well as ITV's multi-award

winning for the love of dogs. He was also presented the ITV celebrity game show, Paul O'Grady Saturday Night lineup. So, Paul O'Grady, dead of unknown causes at the age of 67. Sam Bankman-Fried, charged with, well, he's been charged with new charges. Now, he's already been charged with 13 criminal counts from federal prosecutors. All right, so he's been indicted on charges of conspiracy to commit wire fraud, securities fraud, individual charges of securities fraud, and, wire fraud, money laundering, and conspiracy to avoid campaign finance regulations. Well, U.S. prosecutors added another indictment to the old SBF,

accusing the FTCS founder of bribing Chinese government officials with $40 million worth of crypto payments. Prosecutors claim that Sam Bankman freed directed employees to send payments to at least one Chinese official in exchange for China freeing up frozen accounts connected to his hedge fund, which is Alameda Research. The U.S. says those accounts contained more than a billion dollars in crypto. So we're still going after the old SBF and the FTX against the CCP. Just a few headlines to get you through the day.

I see where J.P. Morgan's CEO, Jamie Diamond, has agreed to testify under oath over the bank's ties to the late convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. Lucid, the EV startup, is laying off 18% of its workforce or around 1,300 employees. McKenzie, the consulting firm that usually recommends layoffs at other companies, is cutting about 1,400 rolls from its own roster. Substack is allowing writers on its platform to buy shares in the company for as little as $100. Apparently, Substack claims that they've already raised $82 million in venture capital. Also, I see, speaking of money and spending it, the Washington Commanders has been up for sale, and I call them the commanders. I, oh, you're the Redskins, Jeff. No, I know.

I know. But, you know, in the world today, they are the Washington commanders. So they are up for sale, and they were remarking on how much they were going to sell for. Remember, Rob Walton, one of the Waltons, the Walton's, the Walmart Walton's, bought the Denver Broncos for $4.65 billion last year. Well, how much is the Washington commanders going to be worth? And people were speculating that it would be probably $5 billion. Everybody wants Dan Snyder gone. The owners want Snyder gone. But Snyder is holding out for the most money.

Good for him. I know that we talked about Magic Johnson officially joining a group that wants to put a bid in for the Washington commanders. Well, now we have, and then we have a billionaire, Steve Apostolopoulopoulos, submitted a fully funded offer. Those two teams, okay? The Josh Harris-Mitchell Rails Group, that includes Magic Johnson, and the Canadian billionaire, Steve Apostolopoulos,

has put in bids for $6 million. For the Washington, commanders, the NFL will be just fine. The commanders are going to sell for $6 million. I really am surprised that Jeff Bezos is not trying to buy the commanders. And I know it's been bugging me. The only thing I can figure out that why Bezos would want to be involved in the NFL. And I mean, it's only $5 billion, $5 or $6 billion.

Jeff, they're going to sell. If he wants the commanders, he can buy them. he could open up, pull out the back wallet and go, yeah, I'll take it. And just, you know, start counting dollars and giving it over to Dan Snyder. But I feel like that maybe it's worth more to him, not to own a team, but he's probably got a better deal coming with the NFL for Amazon. So he's going to end up making more money as a purveyor of the NFL on Amazon than actually owning the team.

because I don't know that that would be quite a conflict of interest as an owner from the team having to be involved in broadcast rights. But I don't know why not. You own the team and you can broadcast the games on my network for a price, of course. I mean, it wouldn't surprise me that the NFL would be okay with that, but it doesn't seem like that's the case. And it kind of throwing me for a little bit of a curveball because I thought for sure this would be a team that,

someone like Jeff Bezos would want to purchase, but apparently not. So, you know, what do I know? It's hockey season, and you can get anything you need delivered with Uber Eats.

The artificial intelligence chatbot developed by OpenAI,

launched in November of last year, and it's built on top of OpenAI's GPT-3.5 and GPT4 families of large language models and has been fine-tuned using both supervised and reinforcement learning tech needs. It's trained to follow an instruction in a prompt and provide a detailed response. Well, I see there's a new study

out that accountants, survey researchers, and interpreters could see a sizable chunk of their day-to-day work outsourced to chat GPT. According to this study, published by researchers from the University of Pennsylvania and OpenAI, which is the company behind Jet GPT.

If you're not eager to compete with a language model for a job, you might want to consider physical labor. The study found that for tire repairers, meat packers and athletes, yeah, it's not really impactful. You should just go ahead and do that. But ultimately, the study found that most GPT-AIDS, jobs to be those performed by knowledge workers, particularly ones who spend their days coding and writing.

The paper stops short of predicting how quickly typing prompts into AI tools could become part of the workflow of various jobs. But it's already happening at some workplaces. I mean, one of the digital artists went viral after, you know, oh, I don't have to do my full job anymore. I just enter creating original art into entering prom. into the text to image AI apt mid-jurney, and then I edit the output in a matter,

and I get that edited in a matter of weeks. Well, okay, well, good for you. Congratulations, but that means it's already being, you know, integrated in. Anyway, looking ahead, almost one in five U.S. employees could have at least half of their work tasks disrupted by chat GPT, per this study. And Goldman Sachs estimates that AI chatbots might affect 300 million full-time workers across the major economies. So, if you don't like the idea of becoming a tire repairer, a meatpacker, or an athlete,

I don't know what to tell you. But there will have to be a income because people will not be able to if you're an athlete, the people that pay your salary are the people that are working and have jobs that come and see you and pay, buy products

that are sold while you're performing or products that you're promoting. And so if they don't have a job, you're not going to be able to afford buying products that the athletes are selling. So that money may go down. So $6 billion might be a little high for the old commanders, but they're still

going to get it. But I would say that there'll have to be some sort of income. And that is going to be an amazing struggle because if they know they're not going to do it right. And so everybody will just instead of cutting all the other government entities out, I know we have had this argument a whole bunch and nobody agrees with me but i think that if you're going to have a income you need to get rid of all the other government help and then just everybody gets them income so that you don't have and you're not going to be able to do that because nobody's going to want to get rid of all the extra help they're going to want the income plus the help that they already have they're not going to see the advantage of taking the old stuff away and using the new stuff so i don't know i don't

know what we're going to do you can quote me on that I don't know what we're going to do. Well, you can follow me on Twitter at Jeffrey JFR. You can follow me on Facebook, Jeff Fisher Radio. You can follow me on Instagram, Jeff Fisher Radio. And you can email the show anytime you want, chewing the fat at the blaze.com. You can follow me on YouTube, chewing the fat with Jeff Fisher. You can order a cameo from me at Jeffy JFR.

That's not free, but I'll do it for you. you know happy, sad, glad, or man, cabbio is my pimp, and you just order through Cameo at Jeffrey JFR and tell me what you want, and I'll do it, and then, you know, you pay Cameo. Cameo as my pimp gives me a cut.

It's a really simple process. You can do that as well. Speaking to Instagram, okay, so I was, you know, perusing the old Instagram last night. And I ran across this post from Eva and Javier. It's a couple's comedy post. And this particular post is, I don't know, I'll stop the post from airing right now.

Calm down. Okay, Eva. And it's from Eva. .pepa J, P-E-P-A-J. It's original audio, and she's on the street asking three people on the street. looks like two females and a guy who wishes he was a female. That's just me saying that. It could be a third female.

What kind of currency do they use in New Mexico? I have no idea. I don't think I've ever been to New Mexico. Okay. Or would know about it. Fair enough. What currency do they use in New Mexico? Oh, red?

Red? Yes, I don't know. I don't know. Red is a good answer. What kind of currency do we use in New Mexico? Okay, this is the guy who thinks he's a girl, and he's busy thinking right now. The kind of currency they're using New Mexico.

He's trying to look like he's really smart thinking. I think of a really good answer. She just is holding the mic to his, in front of his face. I like the little music. Kind of agonizing, but it's her bit, not mine. That's a really good answer. I love how she, you know, that's a really good answer. Thank you.

Not confrontational at all. Here's a rule of thumb. All right. Those of you listening to Chewing the Fat know that this is a rule of thumb, a rule from the show. Okay? Very simple. Very simple. Just because someone puts a microphone in front of your face doesn't mean you have to answer.

Now, I appreciate that you do. that many people do. I do appreciate it. We have a new one. We have a new one coming. I should save it. I'm going to save it because there's a news clip. That was a man on the street,

and she was asking people what kind of currency they use in New Mexico. And her and her husband have some couples comedy on Instagram. Some of it's funny. Some of it's, okay. They work hard on it. They've got hundreds of thousands, if not millions of views. So I'm sure they're making some money. Good for them.

Congratulations. Keep up the good work. And this was her separate account and she's doing, you know, person, I'm not messy man on the street, person on the street interviews asking questions and everyone has to answer because no one, at least, you know, she's showing us to people that answered. Hopefully, I should like to talk to her maybe and see how many people she had to turn away. I bet it isn't very many. In today's world, when you put a microphone in someone's mouth and they feel.

like they have to answer instead of saying, I don't know, and move on, or they just say, I got nothing for you and keep moving. Nope. They want to stop an answer. And there's a news report that I'll play on Friday that's a new soundbite that is going to be added to the collection. We're going to go through some of the new soundbites on Friday, including the new one. And it is awesome.

But it also makes one feel like follow. the chewing the fat rule, okay? You don't always have to speak. You don't. That's hard for me. I have no idea how hard that is for me. But it's a good rule when you're out in public just because someone puts a microphone in front of your face

doesn't mean you have to speak. Stream and subscribe to more Blaze Media content at theblaze.com slash podcasts. Holiday Magic at Holt Renfrew with gifts that say I know you.
