And now
Chewing the Fat with Jeff Fisher
Okay, so a lady by the name of
Anne Lee Dozier
lives in Washington, D.C.
And back in 2019
when she was working in
Latin America
for a human rights advocacy group,
she saw a decorative old vase
or vase at the clearance shelf
at a 2A thrift store
in Clinton, Maryland.
Now, she thought, oh, that's a cute little thing.
Reminds me of Mexico, and that's only $4.
I'll buy it.
And she had it forever up on her mantle.
And then she visited Mexico City,
and she noticed the vases at the National Museum.
And those look a lot like the one I picked up at the thrift store.
That's pretty interesting.
So she asked a museum official, and the official said,
well, you should contact the embassy in Washington on your return.
And after examining the pictures, the embassy wrote back,
congratulations, it's real, and we would like it back.
And I would reply to that email saying, thank you and no.
But she gave it back.
I know.
You know what's money?
she should have said, no problem.
You want it back?
You can bid on it at the auction
that it's going up for auction at.
No problem.
Here's the link to the auction house.
Holy cow.
So apparently it dates back
between the second and eighth centuries,
CE, dating to the classical Mayan period
when their civilization was at its zenith.
It's really important to recognize
that some of these things,
especially with such historical and cultural value
to an entire country and people.
You can't really put a number on that.
Here, let me help you.
I'll help you put a number on that, okay?
Adding that the feeling of playing a part
in a nation's cultural heritage
was worth more than any amount she could have gotten at auction.
Was it, though?
Was it?
I think not.
Welcome.
I know it's just me.
I know.
it's just me good for her thanks for giving it back you know thanks for being a part of cultural
history at the museum there in mexico because nothing says greatness like the national
museum in mexico welcome welcome to chewing the fat interesting to me that at the same time
uh the uh Kenyan police force or you know military
for us, arrive in Haiti
as part of the international
mission to quell violence.
There's protesting going on
in Kenya.
The Kenyan police
opened fire on
protesters. They stormed
and set fire to the country's
parliament, killing at least five
people, while lawmakers
fled underground and
escaped through tunnels.
So
the lawmakers were, the lawmakers were
passing bills to raise
taxes and the people
in Kenya are having
none of it. So good luck
God bless to the people
of Kenya and also I see
where the
Denmark has
passed their law that's
starting in 2030, farmers
with livestock will be taxed
per metric ton of
carbon dioxide emitted
from each cow. That
won't start a fight. I mean, they've
already had farmers up in arms over there.
So good luck.
God bless to the Danish people.
You know, just remember what they're doing in Kenya.
I would remind every government.
In Kenya, they stormed the capital.
And the Kenyan police fired back.
More than that, I mean, we lost five people.
Holy cow.
It's not pretty.
Not pretty at all.
Anyway, it's just interesting to me that that's going on.
That's all.
You know, another interesting story that just caught my eye this morning.
The IRS has apologized to billionaire Ken Griffin for a tax records leak.
Now, he got an unusual message, a public apology from the IRS.
The IRS said, you know, we were working on the data security problems that allowed a contractor,
now in prison, to leak private information.
about him and other wealthy taxpayers to the media.
We're so sorry.
It's part of the settlement of the Citadel founder's lawsuit against the IRS over the leak,
which he has now dropped.
Huh.
Other targets of the leak included Elon Musk, Jeff Bezos, and Donald Trump.
So, okay, we're so sorry.
Apology accepted.
I dropped the lawsuit against you.
Just interesting to me.
just interesting to me.
That's all.
Just interesting.
Oh, and the dolly is on the move.
They are headed to the port of Virginia.
They're leaving the port of Baltimore.
I think they should be out of the port of Baltimore by now.
I mean, it's been a little bit of time since it ran into the Francis Scott Key Bridge.
And then they moved it back.
They hauled it out of it.
They moved it back to the Baltimore port.
and investigated and looked at everything.
And then they said, okay, well, you know what, we'll get it out of here.
So they believe that it's safe and secure to the voyage.
So during the transit, the Coast Guard Cutter Sailfish,
an 87-foot Marine Protector Class Patrol Board,
home ported in Virginia Beach,
provided a 500-yard safety zone around the valley.
So they're not too sure about what's going to happen to it.
And then Coast Guard watch standards at command centers
in the 5th Coast Guard District of Portsmouth, Virginia,
are monitoring the ship's movement.
So it's scheduled to sail under its own power
with a full crew of 22 and 6 salvage experts from Resolve Marine.
Love them.
Four commercial tugboats will accompany the ship
and the salvage vessel, interceptor from Resolve Marine.
It's going to follow closely behind.
And it's going to go directly to Virginia.
International Gateway.
And then it's going to have like 1,500 cargo containers offloaded.
They still have cargo containers on it.
Wow.
And they're going to do that.
And then it's going to go to the Norfolk International Terminal
where it's slated to undergo continued salvage and repairs
from damage caused during the bridge collapse.
So, hey, good news for the Dally.
I don't know if it's the same crew.
Remember because the crew stayed on the ship.
through the whole time
when it was
covered from the bridge
and it was stuck there
they wouldn't let them leave
and then they got
they freed it up
when the salvage crew
got rid of the bridge debris
which is like I don't know
500 tons of stuff
and then they moved it back
to the port
and the no you're not leaving
now you're still staying on the ship
and we'll come and talk to you
but we might give you a phone maybe
but you're staying on the ship
and then now
I don't know if it's the
same crew or not. I don't know if they got rid of them
or if they're saying,
now you guys just have to stay on the ship and that's the way
it is. But we'll see.
We shall see.

So that's at Jeffrey JFR on Cameo.
Okay, so I saw a new phrase yesterday,
and I'd never heard it before,
and I was just wondering, huh, so raw dogging.
What is raw dogging?
Now, no, that's not what you're thinking.
I know what you're thinking.
It's not from one of my sites.
It's not one from, you know, it's not, no, it's not that.
Yeah
Oh yeah
Yeah
We're gonna be raw dogging all night long
Oh yeah
Get out over here
No it's not that at all
It's not that at all
It's apparently
When you're flying
And you forgo
In-flight entertainment
Music,
Snacks
Sleep, you just endure
The long flights
With no distractions
That
is raw dogging.
Now I guess it's inspired by
Idris Alba's character in the
Apple TV Plus series hijacked.
I have not seen that yet.
I love Idris Alba though.
And so, you know, I'm sure he's,
I'm sure he's great in it.
You know, I love Idris and all his work.
But I guess this is what inspired
raw dogging.
So then I see other posts.
I just rod dogged it to 15 hour flight to L.A.,
no music, no movies, just flight map.
New personal record.
Then I see just raw dog to seven-hour flight, new personal best, no headphones, no movie, no water, nothing, incredible.
The power of my mind knows no bounds.
That is hilarious.
And then there's a picture of the flight map, 11-hour flight, new personal best, raw-dogging the flight, and they give you the map.
And, I mean, I will say, I've said it before, one of the most genius things that
long flights did was give you a screen that showed you the flight so you could follow along.
That was a good move.
I flew the one flight, the first flight, I think it was that I saw it, was from Newark to,
to, we went to Ireland and then we went to Israel.
Anyway, and that, well, that wasn't a domestic plane.
I was on a private plane, so never mind.
Let's forget about that one.
Let's talk about the flight from South Africa to London.
That's a long-ass flight.
As have you know that.
Holy cow.
Holy cow.
We were down at the other end of Africa.
And then we flew to London.
And then I flew from London to Miami.
Anyway, but I just remember, ever so often you watch a movie, you do whatever, you know, whatever it is.
And then it's like, oh, but if you turn on the flight map, you're good.
You get to watch the land speed.
where you're at
approximate destination time.
It makes flying so much easier
because you have the,
it just makes it easier.
Like, oh yeah, that's where we're at.
We're good.
And we're making progress.
We're making headway.
We're traveling on 655 miles an hour.
And the ground speed and temperature is, you know,
85 degrees of the ground that were flying over.
But really, if you step outside, you've frozen to death.
Anyway, and I love it.
it. I love it. It was a good move. But I did not know that
that raw dogging
wasn't, oh yeah, raw dogging all day long.
So just know if somebody says
that they got done raw dogging.
They don't mean what you originally thought it meant.
All right, let's go to the break room. I need something cold
to drink desperately.
So congratulations, I guess, to Scarlett Johansson.
She confirmed that she will have a role in the new Jurassic World movie set for release in July 2025.
She said, I'm thrilled to join the franchise.
She expressed her longtime desire to be part of it.
I've been trying to get into this franchise for over 10 years.
Yeah, I bet you have.
I bet you have Scarlett.
Now, I guess, according to this,
she's going to star alongside Bridgeton's Jonathan Bailey
with a script by David Cope,
the original 1993 writer.
Okay, now the previous cast, Chris Pratt,
Bryce Dallas Howard, Jeff Goldblum,
Sam Neal, Laura Dern,
you know, the longtime franchise
that Scarlett wanted to be,
be a part of.
They're not part of any of it.
So, good luck.
Good luck.
God bless.
I mean, I'm okay with the new Jurassic World.
I love the Jurassic World franchise.
I like the Jurassic Park franchises.
They were all great.
There were a couple that were, you know, eh.
But they were all, I enjoyed them all.
I enjoyed them all.
But now the whole thing is, this is a whole new thing.
This is not the original franchise.
So you just, I know you're thrilled to be part of the Jurassic franchise,
but that's not really, you know, the people who are and were the franchise aren't part of it.
But whatever, good luck.
God bless.
I hope it.
I hope all is well and hopes it all works out.
Because unless it looks terrible, I'll probably spend money to see it at the theater.
Then I see where the Oscars, the Academy Awards, the, the,
Move, I'm sorry, I want to make sure I do them right.
The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences.
Okay, thank you.
You happy?
All right.
They extended invitations to 487 to join the membership ranks of the Oscar organizers.
I must have missed mine.
I'm a little pissed.
I must have missed my invitation.
This year's list across 19 branches.
Oh, well, that's wonderful.
that's great.
Apparently, the Academy said the
24 class is made up of
44% who identify
as women, while 41%
belong to underrepresented
ethnic racial communities,
and 56% are from
56 countries and territories
outside the United States.
A total of 71
Oscar nominees and
19 winners are among
the invites to the
AMBAS 19 branches.
The 487 new members for this year is up
from the 398 invited in 2023.
The record for most invitees came in 2018
when 928 were asked
amid the Academy's overhaul. Oh yeah, that's when
they were really focused on diversifying its membership.
And they sent a full list
of some of the new
the new people.
They've asked to become a member of the Academy.
I don't know how much it costs.
I don't think it's free.
Jessica Alba.
Who else we got on this list here?
Jessica Albra that I thought would actually already be there.
Lily Gladstone, yeah, of course.
She has to be part of it now.
Any other big sons?
Kate Mara.
I'm surprised she's not.
Divine Joy Randolph.
Yeah, she should have been a part of this.
all the all the silver linings playbook dash me okay okay and then of course i mean they have the casting directors
and the cinematographers and the costume designers and the directors and the documentarians and the executives
uh and the film editors oh yeah and the makeup artists and hairstylists and the marketing and public relations
oh yeah and music so we have all those and uh again i must have missed mine
so if you could
I don't know
send it again
I'll try to get to the mailbox
and see you know
and respond please
or maybe you just email me
I don't know chewing the fat at the blaze.com
and say hey fat man
walk to the mailbox
we've got something in the mail for you
anything just get me in
so I was asked the other day
on social media
one of the accounts I think it was X
at Jeffrey JFR
when's the last time I was out of Hooters
and I got to thinking about when was the actual last time I was out of Hooters
because what brought it up is Hooters is closing some locations.
They've seen, you know, drop in sales as everyone at place else has
and with the cost of employment and everything else.
With inflation, you know, many restaurants that we've talked about
and documented on the show are closing.
So Hooters has about 300 global locations.
and they have a nearly, you know, the 12% decline.
I mean, they're talking about closing dozens of stores
across the United States.
I think two or three are right here in DFW that are going.
So they didn't list their original press release
didn't list which actual locations were going to be closed.
I'm sure when you go to the store and you say, it says,
closed, you'll know that's one of the stores.
So just send me a picture.
just tag me in a post.
When you go to the Hooters and there's a close, sorry, we're closed now.
Go hoot somewhere else.
Just send me the photo either on X at Jeffrey JFR or Instagram, Jeff Fisher Radio.
Anyway, they're closing.
I mean, they're originated in Florida, obviously, and then Kentucky, Rhode Island, Texas, Virginia.
And they shut them down this past weekend.
There you go.
Now, they say they are still highly resilient and relevant.
Okay, if you say so.
They just open one.
Not a Hooters, though.
It's called Hoots, I think.
Not far.
Maybe that's one of the ones they closed.
I got to see if it's open in my neighborhood.
But it's just a hoot.
So it's just a drive.
It's a takeout place.
And you order the wings from there.
But I used to go to Hooters.
I mean, all the time.
The guy, one of the founders, used to,
I'll be real good friends with the guy I worked with
at 970 WFLA and Tampa, the mothership.
And he would, you know, bring Hooters in all the time.
And he gave us all VIP cards.
And we had the VIP card where you get 50% off.
Here you go.
Here's your VIP card.
You get 50% off whatever you get.
Whatever Hooters you go to, 50% off.
Didn't matter.
Franchise, whatever.
And so I got one for my son.
That's my favorite Hooters story, by the way.
I got one for my son, my oldest son.
And so when he was playing for the University of Missouri,
he would take the team to the Hooters.
And the first time he took the team,
he went, you know, there's, I don't know,
how many ever they took, you know, who knows,
five guys, six guys, seven guys, how many of every he took.
And he whips out the VIP card.
The manager was so pissed.
Took the card.
Let me see that thing.
He took it back.
And he came back and he said, yeah, okay, you're fine.
It's good.
It's legitimate.
I don't know what the bill was,
but the manager's all happy.
He's got the football team there,
these giant men buying,
and then everything is 50% off.
Heck yeah, I love Hooters, man.
I was a fan of them for a long time,
and I'm even more of a fan.
If they want to reset me that VIP card,
be happy to visit an open store anytime.
I mean, I'm not, I prefer,
now here's the thing.
I prefer Buffalo Wild Wings,
wings over Hooters' wings.
You know, if they want, he used to bring in just huge tubs of Hooters wings.
You know, and what are you going to do, say no?
I mean, I'm not going to say no to that.
Those are better than the 50% off.
Those are free.
And now I'm going to eat those.
But at the same time, I'm going to go, these Buffalo Wild Wings, they're a lot better.
I got to tell you, thanks for bringing in the free stuff.
But you guys need to up your game.
With AmX Platinum, $400 in annual credit.
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.
Did you realize, and I forgot about this yesterday, I meant to mention this, 15 years ago is when Michael Jackson passed away.
Fifteen years! The King of Pop has been dead.
He died, you know, June 25th, the 2009.
credible incredible I mean it just seems like a
I mean Michael Jackson is he still relevant today
I mean he's still the king of pop right he's Michael Jackson
you hear Michael Jackson songs you know it's Michael Jackson
I mean that's Michael I did see a video of a guy
that was a dancer back in the 20s
and he had all these same moves that Michael used
and I thought that's where Michael got it
He still, uh, just incredible.
Anyway, rest in peace, Michael.
And, uh, you know, I'm sorry to, sorry it's been 15 years.
And I don't think about you every day.
I know.
I know.
Sorry.
Oh, well.
Oh, well, what are you going to do?
Anyway, so, do you remember the, uh, uh, lady who starred in the notebook?
And if you look at me and say, the notebook, what movie is that?
Don't.
All right.
You're, you're, you're, that means that you're not from America.
If you know, I mean, the notebook, you know.
James Garner, Ryan Gosling,
Gina Rowland,
who we're going to be talking about in a moment,
and of course my girl, Rachel McAdams,
in the notebook.
Well, Gina Rollins, who played Rachel's,
who played Rachel as an old woman, okay?
She, and then, you know, of course,
died with James Garner,
who played the old father of,
Brian Gosseling.
Anyway, I don't want to break your heart
if you've seen the movie.
We've all shed a tear
at the end of the notebook, okay?
You don't have to be proud about that.
We definitely have shed a tear.
Anyway, so Gina Rollins
now actually has
dementia.
I don't know you.
What's going on here?
Am I supposed to know you?
No.
No? No!
No!
Police! I know!
She, her son, you know,
direct, she's, I mean, she's
been an Academy Award, right?
She won an Academy? I think she did.
She's been an actress for, I don't know, 70 years.
And she said at the time,
she spent a lot of time talking about Alzheimer's
and wanting to be authentic about it.
And, you know, her dad had it.
And now she also, you know, she's,
she acted, she said she's,
she's had the disease.
and full dementia, and so it's crazy.
We lived it, she acted it, and now it's on us.
So very sad about that.
But just know, yeah, I mean, you run across the notebook on Netflix or Prime
or one of the movies, you know, this weekend,
if you're just scanning the dials or the channels, the websites.
Oh, there's a notebook.
Let's watch it.
Yeah, it's real now.
Gina Rowland's, very sad.
She's not dead, though, yet.
but she is struggling.
Another person that is not dead,
but people believe that he's dead,
is Richard Simmons.
Now, I've got, at some point,
I've got to do my history lesson on Richard Simmons for you
because I've got a timeline of where he was so,
where he was just monstrous, just this huge,
and then he just went away.
And whether it was his housekeeper that kept up,
nobody saw him,
he was becoming a hermit,
The story is really fascinating.
Well, he's been, you know, posting on X quite a lot lately.
And I saw this ex post from him yesterday, and I thought, well, that's what someone who's dead would say.
Someone was posing as Richard Simmons, because there's many that believe maybe the housekeeper killed him.
Maybe the housekeeper has him, you know, kept as a slave, you know, kept him under wraps.
So he posted, I'm very sad today.
Some of you still think that it's not me writing my messages or answering my emails.
Others think, I do not do my chats.
That's a two-part post.
There are people who say things about me and claim they are very good friends with me.
They are major liars.
I have a few very, very close friends.
And I also have all of you that believe in me.
sometimes I want to just disappear on my website.
Love Richard.
That makes me concerned.
It does sound like AI.
It does sound like someone who maybe Richard is still alive
and he's being held hostage
and he's being told what to write.
I don't know.
I don't know.
I'm just saying what people are saying out there in the real world.
And when I read posts like this from Richard,
at the weight saint
I think to myself
hmm maybe they're true
and I may or may not get another email
from them
you know asking me to
and telling me why I should be for
or against things like this
they want you to
stop having sex
with meat eating men
now it doesn't say
that I should stop having sex with meat eating women
but it does say that they've announced a campaign to persuade people
to stop having sex with meat-eating men
after a study found a large gender gap in vegan diets.
Oh, so because men apparently don't give a crap about the planet,
a new study shows that males contribute significantly more
to the climate catastrophe than females.
Oh, that's why.
Though their higher consumption of meat,
Peter through their higher consumption of meat
Peter is asking people to stop
Give oh see they didn't say crap okay
Because men apparently don't give a F word
About the planet
Pita is asking people to stop giving a
F word literally by withholding sex
From their meat eating husbands and boyfriends
Until they go vegan
So
I guess they're gonna have a big ad campaign
And you know
Never mind
I guess there's a new study
found that among societies
where men and women were given more freedom
to choose their diets, men were
far more likely to choose meat
diets than vegan ones,
while women were more open to
choosing to go vegan.
Animal agriculture is a killer.
Spewing methane that's
destroying the planet, hardening
humans' arteries with cholesterol
and sending billions of animals to their
death, said Ingrid
Newkirk, the president of PETA,
I have not heard from Ingra.
A girl that contacted us was just a spokesperson.
Ingra has not reached out.
It's not Ingrid.
It's not Ingrid.
So she's already pissed at me.
She's already pissed.
You know what?
I apologize for mispronouncing your name.
Ingrid.
Newkirk, president of PETA.
And PETA urges lovers everywhere to ditch deadly meat
and reach for vibrant vegan foods instead.
No, no, no, no, no, no, no.
No, no, no.
We're not doing that with the PETA people.
No, no, no, because, I mean, they're going to, they, oh, go ahead.
Go ahead.
Hey, PETA.
How you doing?
I've got a nice, medium, rare piece of meat right here.
Just for you.
Oh, yeah.
Flip it over.
See?
Looks good, doesn't it?
Oh, yeah.
Don't stop.
What are we talking about, Peter?
Don't stop me.
I'm right in the middle.
No, never mind.
Stop, but we're done.
We're done.
I can't.
I just, I just can't.
And congratulations to Virginia.
Speaking of meat, by the way.
A new Virginia law will let anyone harvest roadkill any time of the year.
right, now we're talking about America.
The question is,
you know, for a long time the rule
in a majority of the country was
the government got to keep the deceased animal.
State laws prohibited drivers
from claiming the meat of animals killed
on public roads and highways for food.
Instead, ownership of the corpses
defaulted to whichever agency
maintained the roads, wasting countless
tons of farm fresh, slightly
battered flesh or not. That's the
thing. You hit a deer,
there's not a lot of good meat left.
Right, it just isn't.
It gets, it's bruised, it's damaged.
Your car is smashed into the deer.
The deer may be laying inside your front seat.
All right, it's just, it's not good.
It takes, you're not getting much meat.
You crush a raccoon.
There's no, there's no good eating there.
I mean, maybe there is, maybe you pick it up, you clean it off.
You hose it down a little bit and you're good to go.
I don't know.
But now, a growing number of states have been loosening their highway harvesting bands.
and the Associated Press reported that 30 or so states now alone.
Is that a, is that a, is that, can we quote you on that Associated Press?
30 or so, they're working on that.
That's the Associated Press.
Yeah, 30 or so.
We're pretty sure.
What are we even?
Okay.
Allow people to harvest roadkill.
And so although they believe the pace of reform isn't slowing down.
More and more states are coming in.
So, okay, so Virginia law allows anyone to claim roadkill all year round.
Current law only allows the driver who killed the animal to claim the carcass,
and only if they hit the animal during hunting season.
Okay, so if it's hunting season, you hit the animal, you get to keep it.
If it's not, the state gets it.
So anyway, good, if you're driving through Virginia and you hit a deer, it's all yours.

the good stuff. So Friday, I was singing share all weekend, and I could get that stupid song
out of my head. And then I see a video from a Waffle House. And the question, the new question,
if you have a video and you want people to comment and look at it, just ask, what do you notice
about this video? And then people will comment about it. And so I see a video that post that says,
what do you notice about this waffle house question mark and it's all first of all it's all these
white people uh singing and uh i noticed that there's no fights going on and there's no it's not a
bunch of african americans fighting it's not a bunch of white people fighting it's just i don't know
these younger kids in a waffle house there's some older people eating there as well
looks like they've been out partying and they're singing and i quote tweeted actually i said
there's no way you could be in that Waffle House
and now start singing with them.
They're having a great time.
They're partying and they're at a Waffle House
and they're singing Hank Williams Jr.,
which got rid of Cher.
I sang Hank Williams Jr.
Family tradition and a country boy can survive
all weekend long.
But this one has been stuck in my head.
Country Boy can't survive.
Did not stick in my head.
Every once in a while I would,
I'd like to spit some beach nut,
that dude, die.
And that's, then I'm done with country.
boy can survive.
And then I went back to family tradition.
But this is what they were singing at the Waffle House.
Now it says I read somewhere,
maybe I just made it up,
that this was in North Carolina.
But it doesn't say that on this post.
But I'm pretty sure I read it somewhere.
Anyway, maybe I just made it up.
So where does I say Tampa?
Who says that?
In my ear I hear Tampa.
No, it wasn't in Tampa.
It was not in Tampa, Florida.
Oh, see, that's just a stupid story about Tampa.
It wasn't the Waffle House.
Don't bug me down with your stupid stories about Hank Williams
when I'm talking about this particular story.
Okay, this one.
I don't care.
Hank, hey, no.
Back at 95, Hank stopped up the Waffle House in Decatur, Georgia.
And he was there all, he was there at 2 a.m.
He's all done partying because they'd done a show
and he was tired and hungry, and the bus pulled in.
I don't care about that.
I'm talking about this Waffle House singing Hank Williams Jr.
And they came in party, and I will say that I like this a lot better than fights from the Waffle House employees and customers throwing stuff around at a Waffle House, which I see far too many of.
But then there's this group at a Waffle House I'm saying in North Carolina.
Why do you roll small?
Get high.
Now the song that you wrote.
You get laid.
Fantastic.
Now, there's no way.
There is no way.
They're just having fun.
They're singing.
I don't know if they ordered yet.
They just got in or they're done ordering, whatever.
There's no way that you could be in that Waffle House and not sing with them.
I'm sorry, you just couldn't be.
You're not a human being.
You're not a human being.
Maybe you, maybe.
Maybe you're from Pita
And you're sitting in the Waffle House
And you're thinking, I can't sing with these meat eaters
But that's the only people
That would be in that Waffle House not singing
And unless you're from Pita
And you hate meat eaters eating sausage and eggs
At Waffle House
You would be, you would
You'd be singing that song for sure
I mean
All I did all weekend was
Hawaii Rose Smoke
Why?
Why must you live?
I's a song that you wrote.
Oh, man.
Over and over.
No, no, leave it up.
Don't.
I get on a family tradition.
Classic, man.
Classic.
All right.
We're done.
I'm done with Hank.
I guess I'll be in my head for a little while longer.
All right, let's get out of here.
Don't forget yesterday.
I gave you the.
the three jokes from my daughter.
She sent me six,
so we're going to do the final three
of my daughter's jokes of the day,
the dad jokes of the day, the final three
from my daughter Maya.
How did the Hamburg introduce his girlfriend?
I don't know.
How did the hamburger meet his girlfriend?
Beat Patty.
You know you laughed.
Which is faster?
Hot or cold?
I don't know.
Which is faster.
Hot or cold?
Hot, silly.
You can catch a cold.
You know you laughed.
You know you did.
You know you did.
All right.
My wife complains I don't buy her flowers.
To be honest,
I didn't even know she sold flowers.
Go ahead.
You know you laughed.
You know you did.
You did.
I don't look to me like that.
You did.
