Blaze Radio Network And now, chewing the fat with Jeff Fisher. Congratulations to Miss Michigan, Elma Cooper, who took the crown Sunday during the 73rd annual ceremony of Miss USA. Wow, congratulations. I didn't know they were still having the Miss USA competition.

They held it on CW. Didn't know that even existed. Ah, just kidding. But, I mean, who watches CW? And, I mean, we've only lost what? We had Miss USA kick to the curb. We'll quit. Miss Teen USA kicked to the curb, quit.

We had the organization social media director kicked to the curb. And the whole Miss USA, Miss Teen has been in turmoil. So I didn't realize that it was still on. going, but it was. So, and it is. And so congratulations to Miss Michigan, Alma Cooper, who took home the crown, Miss Kentucky, Connor Perry, and Miss Oklahoma, Danica Christopherson, Christopherson. Christopherson? I guess it's Christopherson. C-H-R-I-S-T-O-P-H-E-R-S-O-N, were first and second runners up. So congratulations. Now, Miss Elma Cooper, as the daughter of a migrant

worker, a proud Afro-Latina woman, and an officer in the United States Army said, I am living the American dream. Oh, she's an Army officer, a data scientist, and a master's student at Stanford University, researching

food insecurity. She claimed that she's wanted to walk the Miss USA States since she was a little itty-bitty girl. And now she has. And congratulations for being Miss U.S. and those of you that were asking or thinking to yourself,

well, I wonder where she was from in Michigan. Well, she's from right here. Almost the center of the lower Michigan in Okamas, which is right outside of Lansing and East Lansing. In fact, I used to spend all kinds of time in Okamas. My aunt actually lived in Okamas when I was a kid. She was the head of the Michigan State Library. Anyway, congratulations to,

Alma Cooper, who was Miss Michigan, I guess still is, and also is Miss USA. All right, welcome. Welcome to Chewing the Fat. So Hurricane Debbie, now Tropical Storm Debbie, is continuing to roll on up the east coast of the United States of America. It made landfall in Florida yesterday. And people, you know, a lot of there's, I don't know, a couple hundred thousand, maybe less than 150,000 people without power, a lot of flooding. And I was reading a story that talked about four people had died because of the storm, which is, you know, rare. It's a category one. And there's, I mean, storms hit in this neck of the woods often.

In fact, they had a storm hit there last year, almost the same exact location. So people are used to hurricanes hitting that, you know, the big bend coast there off of the Gulf of Mexico. And then I was reading about how the people died. And it's very sad that these people died, but you can't blame only one of the four that they claimed died because of the storm. Really, it was because of the storm. So they had a truck driver found dead

after he lost control of his tractor trailer and collided with a concrete wall on a wet interstate 75 in the Tampa area. Okay, well, that's not... Just because it was wet from the storm. I don't know that we're blaming that on the storm, but they are. Then there was a 38-year-old woman and a 12-year-old boy were killed when their car, driving on a wet road, struck a median and then overturned.

There was a 14-year-old boy who was a passenger hospitalized with serious injuries. So it's very sad that this woman and the 12-year-old boy passed away, and a 14-year-old boy survived. I wish that on no one. very sad but the road was wet so we have to blame that on the storm now the 13 year old boy who died Monday morning after a tree fell on a mobile home located southwest of gainsville that i believe was because of the storm duh uh don't i don't recommend trees falling on anything let alone a mobile home so they're all very sad but i find it difficult to believe that all four

of those can be blamed on the storm. That's what they're doing, though. And as I said, Debbie is continuing to roll on as a tropical storm up the East Coast, and it's going to cause all kinds of flooding and damage. And so stay safe. If you're in the cone of death for Debbie, make sure that you are prepared for that. I also saw where a million dollars worth of cocaine came up on the beach, thanks to Debbie. Apparently, it carried two dozen 70 pound packages of cocaine ashore. And we know about it because, well, good Samaritans turned it in.

I promise you. Just as a side note, there's no way I'm turning that in. I'm not turning at all of it in, that's for sure. And hopefully they didn't either. Hopefully they followed the advice of chewing the fat and the 70 pound packages of cocaine really maybe 100 washed ashore and they turned in 70. You know what?

That's what I'm choosing to believe is that they collected 100 and they turned in 70. Good for them. And I know that there were, I don't know, hundreds of flights canceled because of the storm for sure. I mean, flights out of Orlando, Tampa and Miami International, those were all scrapped because of the storm. nobody's flying through that storm that's for sure and i see where uh speaking of airlines i see where crowd strike is now fighting back saying hey delta why don't you shut up okay it's not all our fault well it kind of is no uh no it is not uh delta blamed crowdstrike for mishandling uh you know for the flawed software update but uh crowdstrike is like

no. We're highly disappointed by Delta's suggestion that CrowdStrike acted inappropriately and strongly rejects any allegation that it was grossly negligent. Really? That's interesting. That's an interesting way to do it. The letter said CrowdStrike CEO George Kurtz personally offered on-site assistance to Delta, contradicting a claim made last week on CNBC by Delta CEO that CrowdStrike was nowhere to be found during the breakdown. And if Delta does pursue legal action, which they claim they're going to, they're going to seek

$500 million in damages for the outage, Crowdstrike said, no. We will not be any part of that. And that is a contractual liability is only in the single million. Really? See, I think that goes back to Crowdstrike. Remember we talked about them saying that it only affected like, I don't know, eight and a half million of their customers because they believe that it only was affecting the people who were contractually had their had their system through crowd strike well yeah that was the official

number of people who had their system through crowd strike but it affected hundreds of millions of people because of those eight and a half million that's just it'll be fun to watch the fight so delta delta and crowd strike are going to be duking it out and we will keep you updated because I'm going to be interested to see what happens. It's really interesting that CrowdStrike goes on the offensive. That's the same thing that Dominion did. People were saying that Dominion, you know, that the computers were hacked and the election was stolen and because of these, because of the election machines and Dominion went on the offensive

and said, no, no, we did not. Prove it and no one could. And they won those cases. So Croutstruck is just taking a page from the Dominion playbook. and fighting back. 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. Okay, this is where we're at in America, in today's world. I'm listening to Hillary Kennedy do the four-minute buzz on Blaze TV this morning, and she does a story about niblet, the chihuahua who shows up at this humane educational society and the shelter staff were immediately

in love with him and the young puppy just weighed two pounds and it wasn't the first chihuahua at this shelter but what set him apart from the rest is that he appeared to have a rare medical condition which testing soon confirmed that the dog was dealing with hydrocephalus or water on the brain which caused a soft spot on his skull that had not fully fused. Well, why didn't we just put him down? So you know what? You're cute. All the pictures they have of Nibblet are, you know,

looking with this sad face and the big Chihuahua eyes and how beautiful he is, not him barking and nipping at people's ankles like all the other chihuahuas do. And like this one will do if they keep him around, but they did not put him down. No, they wanted to find out what they wanted to find out. they could do to save nibble it. And so they started brainstorming. And they reached out to Dr. Samantha Blair at the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga's

College of Engineering and Computer Science for help. And that's where associate professor, Dr. Trevor Elliott, said, you know, you guys should get a hold of Connor Mackey. They kept pushing it off. Samantha, Dr. Blair, said, yeah, you know, really. Reach out to what the space over there at the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga. And that's Dr. Trevor Elliott. And Trevor said, yeah, man, why don't you, you need to talk to Connor Mackey, the recent graduate.

And Connor was the last one on the list. And Connor said, fine, I'll help. And they printed, they got measurements of his head. And he collaborated with Volkswagen as they created this 3D image. All this money and all this expertise. It's being used to figure out something to cover up the soft spot on niblet skull. And they do. They measured the skull.

They got to work designing the perfect cap. They had multiple creations of what could be used for this dog to save this stupid dog. And they finally developed this kind of football-looking helmet. It covers the top of his head. It's got two big rings that wrap around the ears. I don't know if they drilled it. I don't know if they drilled it onto his skull. so it stays there or if it pops on and off.

And I guess it pops on and off because they say he's been wearing it constantly ever since. So I guess if they drilled it into a skull, I would tell you that it's not going anywhere. So I guess they can take it off or he can take it off when he wants to. Now, no one has adopted this stupid dog yet. The Humane Educational Society is saying that, oh, we're still waiting for someone to come along for his forever home. So is he just there now for them to take care of forever? I guess so. They said that they're happy to look after him as long as he needs

and enjoy watching him thrive in the meantime. What happens to the other dogs that are there for a long time? We're putting them down, but we're saving niblet. Okay, I guess you have to choose just one. That's where we're at in today's world, because if this dog was a baby in a female's womb, and they decided, yeah, you know, your kid is going to be, be born with a defect. They'd want you to put it down, but we're saving dogs. And I believe we should

save the human as well. Don't get me wrong. But I'm just saying I don't think we should be spending all this money on saving this little dog. Maybe it's just me, and that probably is. But good luck to nibble it. And man, you know, keep wearing your helmet, because I don't want anything bad to happen to you. As long as we're talking about animals, congratulations to the Los Angeles. Zoo, yes, no one sports zoos more than this show and myself here on chewing the fat. The Los Angeles Zoo has been trying to save the California Condor, which is America's largest flying bird, and they want to save it from extinction. And they've done a pretty good job of it.

This year, the zoo capped off its 2024 condor breeding season. The condor is taking care of some serious bidness this year. record-breaking 17 chicks hatched, breaking the record of 15 set way back in 1997. So the business has been a little slow for a few years until this year. So, I mean, this is a huge bird. If you ever seen them, there are huge. They're like, I don't know, nine and a half feet wingspan,

around three feet high, weighs about 25 pounds. And like vultures and other scavengers, they feed on carcasses of large animals. Yeah, including deer, cattle, and marine mammals, such as whales and seals. Yeah, here's the thing. They eat anything. All right, if it's dead laying on the ground, I'm dropping down and eating it. So according to the LA Zoo, these condors have a high mortality rate because of lead poisoning,

not because they're getting shot, but because they're eating other things that were shot. So they're getting lead poisoning. And I guess they're getting the bird flu as well, which is becoming a growing threat to the species survival. So in 1983, according to this, there were only 22 California condors remaining on the planet. So, I mean, that's definitely an endangered species. Now, I mean, I'm sure it'll work out fine in the long run. And yes, absolutely. So now they decided because there was only 22 left back in 83, they decided to create a captive breeding program.

for the species, which the LA Zoo said, hey, we'll join you in that. So they've been a big partner in the recovery of making these condors. Take care of a little business. And bring them back from the brink of extinction. So I guess the zoo pioneered a new breeding technique where the animal care staff placed two condor chicks

with a surrogate conjure to raise the chicks. And so the surrogate takes. raises the chicks and then I guess they have I guess they have a surrogate male taken care of a little business to create some other some other condors. Oh yeah.

And so I guess this method prevents human involvement and that makes the birds all happy or at least happier. So as of December 2020 there were 561 California condors in the world and

344 living in the the wild. I mean, that's pretty good. They've done a heck of a job. So these new condors are not unexhibit at the zoo, okay. We don't want you to, we don't want to shake them up or do anything. You can, you can see them, and we've got a condor display and stuff on our shows at the zoo, but you're not going to be seeing the young little chick condors until they get a little bit bigger. Now, the 344 out of the 561 California condors are living in the wild. So, I mean, You can still get to see them out there eating the other dead animals that were shot and getting lead poisoning. But congratulations to the Los Angeles Zoo for bringing back the California Condor from the brink of extinction.

All right, let's go to the break room. I need something cold to drink desperately. So Texas, the state that this should. show originates from in the DFW area could soon become the Lone Star Studded State, according to experts, because Houston's tourism department confirmed that it's spending $90,000 a year for Michelin critics to come and review its top eateries over the next three years. So I guess you can pay the Michelin testers to come in. I would like to go on record. I would like to go on record. is saying if you need me to come in and be one of your Michelin reviewers, I'm here for you.

You can reach out to me on my ex account at Jeffie JFR. You can reach out to me either on Facebook or Instagram, Jeff Fisher Radio. You can email me anytime chewing the fat at the blaze.com. You can follow me on my YouTube channel, Chewing the Fat with Jeff Fisher. You know what? Any city that needs me to do a cameo, go to at Jeffy JFR on cameo. It's not free, but I will charge you. less money than what you're paying,

and I will come and rate your restaurants for the Michelin deer. So I guess other cities, Austin, Dallas, Fort Worth, San Antonio are reportedly paying $90,000 fee to compete with America's current culinary hotspots like New York and Chicago, and the rest, whatever else it costs, the state tourism department is going to cover the cost. Wow. So I guess the... They don't know why Michelin chooses to include or exclude specific regions from their critical rounds,

remaining largely unknown. Yeah, it's because of the money. So Florida, I guess, is forked out a bunch of money, $150,000 for an Orlando, Miami, Tampa Guide, and a visit California has paid $600,000 for a statewide edition. I did not know that these companies can pay, that these areas can pay for Michelin Eaters to come in and rate your restaurants. I want to be a Michelin tester. I want to be.

Now, they have a list here that I was not aware of, of the Michelin rated restaurants in different areas of the world. Like, Tokyo has 180. They have the most Michelin restaurants. Paris has 132. Kyoto has 100. Osaka has 85.

London has 78, Hong Kong has 78, New York has 67, Singapore has 51, Shanghai has 51, Taipei has 34, Bangkok has 34, Seoul has 31, Beijing has 31, San Francisco has 30, and Barcelona has 28. So, I mean, the city's in Texas, Austin and DFW and San Antonio and Houston, they've got some money to pay to get those Michelin five-star ratings. Let's go. So wait, okay, so let's see. Tokyo is the home of 180, which I said, right. Okay, so three, okay, so there's different. Okay, they're not all five-star. I apologize. Tokyo has 12, three-star establishments, 32 with two stars, and 136. with one star. New York has 67-starred restaurants, right?

Which we said. But it doesn't give the breakdown of what they are, the one-star, two-star, or three-star. So I'm on record again to saying, I want to be a Michelin Food Tester Ranker. I think they would be called a judge, but whatever. I mean, it started way back in, what, 1926, according, you know, I was looking at the first ever

Michelin Guide, which was posted because of the tire company to help motorists plan their road trips. And they printed almost 100, you know, this is 125 years ago or whatever. And so in 1926, the company started dishing out its famous stars to the best restaurants to stop at along the way.

Since then, the stars have become the most trusted seal of foodie approval. And some cities, chefs have proved much more adept at eating the plaudits than others. Okay. So, I mean, let's go. I'm willing for cities to pay me to come in and tell you what restaurants are the best. The Chewing the Fat restaurant guide.

That's actually not a bad idea now that I break it out and talk out loud about it. Chewing the fat will give you a look at the best places to eat in your travels and see if we can beat out Michelin. I kind of like that. That's not a bad idea. Go on the road and test restaurants and rank them chewing the fat best restaurants across the country. It's not a bad idea. If you'd like to sponsor that, you can reach out at Chewing the Fat at theblaze.com. You know, that got me thinking.

I read a story about this Michelin three-star chef, who I guess is the chef at Noma, which is considered one of the greatest restaurants in existence, I guess. It's been named three-star, or at least a Michelin Star, three-star restaurant five times. And of course, he is, he's been part of this Apple TV Plus series, Omnivore, which I have not seen yet. I just got Apple TV Plus, so I haven't seen Omnivore yet. But of course, then he talks about The Bear on Hulu. Well, it's FX, but it's Hulu that everyone watches it on. I got it.

And he said that the restaurant has actually filmed there. And Red Zeppi, the chef, chef René Red Zeppi, has actually had a cameo in the bear. And he spoke to this interview about the bear and what it was like appearing on the show. And he claimed that the bear is like when I grew up and I watched The Wire, and the Wire was the best show on Earth. The Bear is the wire of our time, stated,

Zepi. Yes, that may be true. Only the wire wasn't put off as a comedy like the bear is, which I never understood. We've talked about it before, but okay, I got you. So he said that while some of it is fiction or a lot of it is fiction, the restaurant industry can be very, very tough place to be in, so much stress. And he said, the bear is a sensation in the world. We feel that at Noma. We have people that come to our restaurant. He mentioned a 22-year-old the other day that came, he's walking down the path and I'm saying, hey, can I help you? And he's like, yeah, is this where they shot the bear?

And I don't care. This is about a restaurant. I just want to follow the footpath of the bear. So he said, I didn't know about the bear before it was out. And people started texting me. Hey, you're everywhere in the show. What's going on? Then they actually shot there three weeks before the show finished.

So he got a cameo in, I loved the new season of the bear. I liked the first season of the bear as well. And I guess so does the Michelin three-star chef. So again, I mean, hello, why am I not a judge for these restaurants? And I will say that, you know, maybe a sponsor could be Heinz. That would make these chefs really mad, which makes me think that it ought to be, that I just travel around judging these restaurants and sponsored by Heinz.

Heinz, reach out to me. I am all yours, baby. I've already got my badge. I am for it 100%. You could sponsor Chewing the Fat on the Tour for the best restaurants in the country. 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.

At just $39.99, how could I resist? This luxurious wool throw for my sister. This gold watch for my partner? A wooden puzzle for my niece? 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. Who died today? Who died today? Well, we can't, I mean, coming off of the Michelin Guides, we have to start with a chef, the Italian pastry chef, Roberto Loli Linguano, the Italian pastry chef who is believed to invented Tiramisu, has died at the age of 81 after a long illness.

So rest in peace to Roberto Loli Linguinoato dead at the age of 81. It doesn't say what the long illness was, but apparently he was working at this labisserie. in Treviso, Italy, when he created the dessert. And one story suggests he accidentally dropped the mascarone into a bowl of sugar and eggs, later adding ladyfingers soaked in espresso

with co-inventor, Elba di Fillo Campiol, the wife of the restaurant's owner. So he was having a little business with the owner's wife. And they knocked a few things in together, by accident and created Tiramersu, knowing that it was from our secret love that caused the invention of Tiramisu. That's what I thought anyway. That's what I got out of that story.

So, rest and peace to Roberto Lone Lengonato, dead at the age of 81. Then we have Songdao Li, Chinese-American particle physicist, Sungdao Li, dead at the age of 97. He is a Nobel Prize winner. He's shared for his physics Nobel Prize with Shenning Yang for their theoretical work that overturned the notion that parody is conserved in the weak force. Duh. So rest in peace.

Sengdao Li, dead at the age of 97. And another thing that officially died, that's not human, Air Base 201, that cost the Pentagon $110 million to build and $30 million a year to maintain in Niger. Yeah, we've just closed it. They kicked us out. I know they claim that, well, we've had ongoing relations with Niger, and there's a new regime there

and we're trying to work it out. Yeah, no, they told us to get out. And we did. I mean, they locked us down and we're not allowing anything to come in to our forces still at the base. So now that air base, we just turned it over. Now, in this story, they talk about how it will be,

we have still some U.S. forces at the U.S. embassy, but I think that's out of there now, too. I think as soon as we can get that out of there we will. I'm not positive about that. But I believe that they wanted us the U.S. out of Niger, like now. And we left. And apparently, we got some of our weaponry out, but there's, here's another base in another country that we just left our stuff at. And, you know, hey, all right, we're gone. Here, just take our stuff. It's all yours now. Wow. This administration is a nightmare. And they had this, actually, this, news breaking today, now doesn't surprise me that Austin reneged on the plea deal with the 9-11

terrorists because he wanted good news before he gave us some more bad news that we left a bunch of stuff behind at the Niger Air Base. What was it? Air Base 201. So rest in peace to Air Base 201 and Niger. I know that they claim it played a pivotal role for the U.S. working in coordination with Niger's Army. Uh-huh. but against terror networks. Uh-huh. But when the new regime came in in Niger, they said, Hey, US, get out.

And we did. Incredible. I know I try to stay away from politics as best I can on this show, just because you get it everywhere else, I know. And it's tough to, you know, live your life outside of politics these days, for sure. But holy cow, if you want more of this nightmare, there's a striking choice to be made come November. And that is either Donald Trump and that weirdo J.D. Vance or Kamala Harris, the anointed one now running for president for the Democratic Party. And she just picked her

vice presidential running mate. Tim Waltz. the governor from Minnesota, who is, I mean, he's an avowed socialist. And Minnesota is a great place these days. If you haven't been, you'll know exactly what I'm talking about. So there you have it. And if you want more military bases and people hate not America without any retaliation from us, that's what you're going to get with a Harris-Wolz administration. I see where China has now entered into the robot business.

We knew it was coming. I mean, we talk about robots here all the time and different companies creating them, but apparently advanced Chinese-made robots with great capabilities, human capabilities, are going to enter the global market here very soon, and our lawmakers want to ban them. So these Chinese companies, apparently,

they're able to carry boxes, which we have already, here in the U.S. They move at high speeds, even replicating human facial expressions. One of the leading Chinese firms, Unitary Robotics, has developed a $90,000 robot

capable of running at speeds of up to 11 miles an hour. A cheaper at $16,000 version can absorb punches and kicks and twirl a baton. Many other firms have similar products under development. Yeah, they sure do.

Think about Chinese government creating an army of these robots. No, that would never happen. Never mind. Don't even worry about it. However, they talk about these robots that can run and take punches.

Why can't they do dishes? That's all I want. I will beef all four Chinese robotics, whether it be unitary or whatever other state-owned Chinese robotic company they have. I'm not going to

to ban them in the U.S. In fact, I'll sell them on TikTok if they could do the dishes and clean the house. We are soon to be doomed. And that's for sure. We are getting closer and closer to being doomed. And I'm pretty sure you can quote me on that. We are closer and closer to being doomed.

All right, a quick daily look at the medals for the Olympics.

the United States has a total of 79 medals. We are far and away, the leader in total medal count. But we are battling it out with China as far as the gold medals are concerned. At the time of this recording, on the 6th of August, 2024, China has 22. The United States has 21 gold medals. And we still have a ways to go. So I'm confident, as I said in the past, that the United States will differentiate. defeat China in the gold medal run.

We cannot let another country. I don't care if it's China or any other country defeat us in the Olympics as far as metal count and as far as gold and gold overall. That just cannot happen. So let's go. Let's pick up the pace. Let's pick up the pace. I also saw where Simone Biles and her teammate Jordan Childs was porting toward the gold medalist

Rebecca Andrade of Brazil. Biles won silver and Charles of bronze And the Rebecca Andre Brazil won the gold for the women's floor exercise at the Olympics And it says that this is the first time That three black women create an Olympic first Three black women on the Dallas What? First of all, I did not know

That the girl of the young lady from Brazil was black But okay, so I mean, I guess we're not supposed we're not supposed to notice it but we want to be told that it's a first all right i guess they this is they they they stood on the same uh platform when they won the world's championship uh they they shared that not the olympics okay i got it so it's the first and congratulations and uh okay i mean i i i really i it just makes no difference to me but i guess maybe that's because of my white

bias because it just doesn't make any difference to me. I mean, those girls are awesome and they deserve it. I don't care what color their skin is, but they keep ramming it down my face. Okay, well, go ahead and keep ramming it down my face. So we're coming up a few days away to the end of this summer Olympics. And then we have the Winter Olympics in Milan Gortina for the winter of next of 2026 and then Los Angeles gets the next summer Olympics in 2028.

Then the French Alps gets the Winter Olympics in 2030. Brisbane gets the Summer Olympics in 2032. And Salt Lake City gets the Winter Olympics in 2034. It's cute how the Olympics think that this will still be an ongoing thing. That is cute, isn't it? Oh, speaking of cuteness, we did have some cuteness. with some of our politicians over the past few days. We've had South Carolina Senator Tim Scott married Mindy Nose of Mount Pleasant,

and they shared videos of the wedding. Many of you were surprised that Tim was getting married to a woman. But it's cute. And they look like they're just a loving, loving couple. And speaking of loving couples, I see where the second husband, who was being treated like the first husband, because I guess we've just anointed Kamala Harris as the president now. Her husband, Doug, actually admitted that he cheated on his first wife with the nanny and got her pregnant. So I don't know. I guess she had an abortion, whatever, but I guess they've worked it out.

And the first wife is happy and the kids are happy. And it's all just one great, big, happy family now. they've worked it out sure i cheated with the nanny actually she wasn't the nanny she became the nanny after he cheated with her all right so i guess she was the teacher okay so he's talking about the story is like that he got her got the nanny pregnant but when you read about the story she was a teacher at the private school that they sent their kids to so he cheated on her on his first wife with the teacher. Then he said, hey, you know,

I'm getting tired of having to go to the school to, you know, have sex with my mistress. Why don't we hire her as a nanny? That's what I got out of the story. And so then they hired her as a nanny so he didn't have to travel to the school anymore. That's the way I took that story. But it's all doesn't matter.

Everything's fine now. the teacher is fine she's living in the Hamptons the ex-wife is fine and they've come together and they've dealt with it and came out stronger at the other side

and they love their blended family with Doug and Kamala and her and the kids and we're just all happy about the we're just as happy as little clams so don't even worry about it it's okay that he cheated with the teacher slash nanny.

And we don't know if she had a kid or not, but all reports are that she never had a kid. So that would mean that she had to get an abortion. And then we had the RFK story about dumping a bear in Central Park. So he's on this Roseanne Bar podcast, and he's talking about how he found a dead bear, was going to keep it, skin it, and eat the bear meat. But he had to go into New York.

so by that time I guess the bear meat was going to be bad. He didn't know what to do with it, and his friends were joking around. So they decided to put the bear in Central Park and make it look like it got hit by a bicycle and just leave it there, which was a big story at the time, but he admitted that it was them doing it.

I don't know why he would do that. That should be an inside funny joke for everyone for all concerned, because it's kind of funny. I can see how it could happen. If you believe the premise that they found the bear, They didn't hit the bear or they didn't shoot the bear. They found the bear dead and it was a good shape.

And they were going to keep it for the bear skin. And then they threw it in the trunk and they went into the city and then thought, no, we can't keep it because it's going to, it's rotted too bad now. And so let's just do something funny with it. Like hang it off a building. We can't carry it up a building. All right, we'll just put it in Central Park and we'll make it look like a bicycle hit it. And then we'll just leave it and we'll see what happens.

And the news covered it. It was a big story. And, you know, that's a good joke between you and your pals. You don't talk about it. You just don't talk about it. But he did, and I thank him for it. All right, let's wrap up with the joke of the day. A joke of the day from Braden.

Email Chewing the Fat at theblaze.com with his joke. My wife really hates it when I make blonde jokes, so I asked her if she wanted to hear a redhead joke. And she said, sure, okay. There was a redhead driving through some mountains who encountered a shepherd, moving his herd of sheep across the road. excited. The redhead gets out and asks the shepherd, Hey, if I can guess how many sheep you have, will you let me have one?

And the shepherd confident that she has no chance agrees. The redhead guesses 267. Amaze the shepherd says, correct, and lets her have a sheep. She picks one out. As the redhead walks back to her car with her prize, the shepherd asks, if I guess your natural hair color, can I have my dog back? According to Braden, his wife was not amused. Now, I know it's a joke, and I know that the redhead was presumed to be a blonde.

Yeah, that's the joke. But if you're a shepherd and someone says, hey, can I guess how many sheep you have, and you say, sure, go ahead, whatever number they say is wrong. You don't have to agree to it. I mean, I guess all shepherds are supposed to be honest, right? But if someone says, hey, 267, nope, sorry. was 268 or close but no you don't let them pick one and then she picked the dog so all right i'll i don't even i'm sorry it was just breaking down a joke that didn't need to be broken down because

just go with the joke you know if i can guess your natural hair color can i have my dog back oh yeah just go with the joke blaze.com slash podcasts.
