Starting point is 00:00:00 This is the Blaze Radio on demand. As a guy who learned the hard way how important proper nutrition is on your health and the great harm excess weight can have on your health, I urge you to get serious about your health with simpleto-lose.com. D diets don't work, and you're really only going to be successful losing weight when you learn how to eat differently, and that is why the free health coaches at Simple to Lose are so helpful. They teach you how to eat six meals a day and why it works.
Starting point is 00:00:29 Many people on my team are working with Simple to Lose and their health coaches. As a team, we've lost over 850 pounds. Mary has lost over 85 pounds and wants to live a long life to keep her family strong. Brad's lost 40 pounds. Finally feels like he did when he was in his 30s. Chris, whose father died young due to obesity, has lost 100 pounds and is off most of his medications. Change your life, get healthy, and thrive today. Go to simpleto lose.com today, not tomorrow.
Starting point is 00:00:56 Go to day. Simple to lose.com. Results do vary. Typical weight loss is 2 to 5 pounds per week for the first two weeks, then 1 to 2 pounds per week thereafter. Life signs stable. It's alive. Set it loose. This is the Jeff Fisher Show on the Blaze Radio Network. Welcome to it. Yes, this is the Jeff Fisher Show on the Blaze Radio Network. How are you today? Good? Bad? Indifferent?
Starting point is 00:01:28 Okay. 1-88-90-903-33 is the phone number here at the Blaze Radio Network. A day of entertainment information lined up for you. I like to call it information. Something like that. You got Michael Pellicle coming right up after me, 8 o'clock Eastern, and then Cain and Cup, Chris Salcedo, Mike Slater, Joe Pags. That's your Saturday lineup on the Blaze Radio Network.
Starting point is 00:01:57 Now, speaking of it being Saturday, today, before we get started, I just want to say day 201 for Sergeant Andrew Tamarisi being in jail in Mexico for making a wrong turn. Someone, please do something. Someone in power. Please do something. It is an embarrassment, a shame that our service. soldier. Uh, hello, active soldier is in jail for making a wrong turn in Mexico and he's been there for 201 day.
Starting point is 00:02:40 Uh, that's embarrassing. Embarrassing. I know we need to talk about, discuss, consider options with Ebola, ISIS, the elections, border, Europe, the oceans, the storms, the space. and beyond. I know we need to do all that. I get it. I get it.
Starting point is 00:03:04 But listen. It's like a little over two months. It'll be Christmas. I hate to break it to you. I don't like to. No, don't look at me like that. I don't keep track of the time. I'm just telling you the time.
Starting point is 00:03:23 It's a little over two months. It's going to be Christmas. I know you got Halloween to deal with and you still got Thanksgiving to deal with. But Christmas is the biggie. You know that. So I found this list from Raisingmemories.com. And it's talking about non-toy gift ideas.
Starting point is 00:03:38 And I was trying to think, you know, actually some of the coolest gifts I got as a child. And really, as an adult all through life, are the ones that aren't toys, right? I mean, you can write your own jokes with that. But really, as a kid, I mean, I remember getting swimming lessons as a gift. And I can remember as a kid thinking, gee, thanks, Angie. that's great. I'll get, I'll put that right back under the tree and smile for a few months. Swimming lessons at the Y.
Starting point is 00:04:09 Thanks. But really? Tremendous gift. Tremendous gift. Because I already kind of knew how to swim. You know, you're a kid. I don't remember how old I was, but I mean, you're a kid. You kind of know how to swim.
Starting point is 00:04:20 You've been swimming here and there. Back in 1812, not everyone had pools. So you swam at lakes. And I grew up in Michigan. So you swam only in the summer. and in lakes, okay? That's where you swam. There wasn't any pools to swim in.
Starting point is 00:04:35 So, you know, it wasn't like you were swimming year-round, and, you know, everybody had a pool. And so I took the lessons, you know, you took them. And it was great. It got me swimming and learned how to swim better and stay alive and not drown. And you got books, of course, my other, you know, my one hand was the head librarian at the state library in Lansing, Michigan. So, you know, of course, she's going to give you books. Great.
Starting point is 00:04:56 Thanks. Appreciate it. but some of the I mean, I know there's exceptions but today the kids just, I mean, there's toys and toys and toys and more toys and you got to have the toys and crap
Starting point is 00:05:09 and go pick that up. No. So I was thinking, you know, we're two months out. Now's the time to start thinking about shopping for Christmas, really. What are you going to, if you're with the Ebola scare, you might want to go to the store now.
Starting point is 00:05:26 And, you know, you know, or you're going to be online, get that free shipping. Let's go. Get that online shopping done. Wrap it up. Let's go. Let's get it delivered.
Starting point is 00:05:33 But you get the kids season passes to stuff like, I don't know, the zoo, the museum, butterfly conservatory. Okay, maybe. You know, butterfly conservatory, aviary, aquarium, those are maybes. But maybe the butterfly conservatory and the aviary, maybe you throw in a little camera so that they can take pictures, a little digital camera, so they have pictures, huh? Tremendous. You're welcome.
Starting point is 00:06:00 Got your passes to the conservatory and a camera. You can take pictures, check it out. It'll be beautiful, huh? Yeah. And you know, and you have the passes to things like movies and bowling, you know, bowling, swimming. Like, as I said, maybe a theater performance, sporting events, Disney. Yeah, okay, you want to see Disney on ice, circus, ice skating, roller skating, mini golf, concert. Yeah, I mean, those are all cool.
Starting point is 00:06:25 Those are all cool to go to it. You know, I would have loved to have someone given me tickets to see Paul McCartney last week. Should have seen him. Should have gone and seen Paul. I don't know what I was thinking. Paul McCartney in Dallas. Do I go? No.
Starting point is 00:06:38 You can get a horse and buggy rides, train rides. These are all cool things to do. I mean, I don't know. I just think it's kind of cool. Now, the ice skating, I would have to back up to ice skating because I have an aunt that I believe she still hates me today. Because, as I said, I grew up in Michigan. And, of course, you know, I couldn't wait to get. out of Michigan because of winter.
Starting point is 00:07:03 So she got me ice skates. And they were the regular ice skates. You know, with a little cutting edge up front so you, you know, you stop into the ice. That's my sound effect for stopping in the ice with the cutting. But, you know, they weren't the hockey skates with the, you know, the single straight blade with the point on each end where you could hurt someone. Badly.
Starting point is 00:07:31 Mine were the figure skating, you know, with the little crunchers up front. I believe that's the official term for them, two crunchers. And, you know, so I put them on, and I hated ice skating. I hated it so much. Thank you. They're so nice. And they were nice ice skating. I look back at it now, they were beautiful ice skates.
Starting point is 00:07:47 They were great. But they were ice skates. I put them on, went out skating. That's great. Thank you. Thank you. I appreciate it. I put them back in the box, and I, you know, pretty much just tossed them in the back
Starting point is 00:07:59 of the closet. She hates me. Can I wear your skates? She doesn't have ice skating. I never wear your skates? Do you ever wear your skates go ice skating? No, I didn't. And at some point, I don't remember when it was, but at some point it was like, you knew I hated winter.
Starting point is 00:08:20 Guess what? No, I didn't wear them. I didn't go skating, okay? So, you know, at least try and know maybe the kid that you're buying stuff for. Yeah, like the train ride. Those are kind of cool. Most places around America have old train rides around. You know, life in the train age.
Starting point is 00:08:37 I love it. Ice cream vouchers. I'm a big fan of that. Ice cream vouchers. You know, dinner, out trip to the fire station. Be nice to the firemen. Bring them a little gift or something. Maybe they'll blow the horn for you.
Starting point is 00:08:48 Those things are loud. You know, then you got hot air balloon rides. and, you know, if you're an adult, you know, wine, wine tasting, zip lining, helicopter rides, that kind of thing. Trip to the spa. I'm a big fan of that. Manicure, massage, facial. Can't do the pedicure, though.
Starting point is 00:09:07 No petties. Sism of my feet alone. The feet are fine. My feet are not for you to touch. Okay. Got a little feet thing going on. Rock climbing, trip to the arcade. You know, that's kind of cool stuff to go to.
Starting point is 00:09:22 The swimming that we talked about, the gymnastics. The gymnastics, the karate, musical instruments. Maybe you take them to an art class. I mean, my daughter, my gosh, when I give her an art class, she's happy as a clam. It's all she wants to do is create stuff. You know, horseback riding lessons, those are kind of cool. Maybe you go to a night of the hotel, you know, take everybody to a park, a water park. I mean, there's stuff to do that, you know, maybe you get them, you know, with books,
Starting point is 00:09:52 with books, you can get them books to read, age-appropriate books, you get them a Bible. You know, my gosh, I had a Bible given to me back in 1812 when I was a little kid. And I still have it today. It's beautiful. It has my name engraved on it. The Bible. It's got the inside page of who gave it to me. What year it was, 1812.
Starting point is 00:10:16 You could just make out 1812. And it's, I love it. But it's great. And it's a gift that at the time you get it, and you go, oh, great. Thanks, Susie and Andrew. And I appreciate it. It means a lot to me.
Starting point is 00:10:35 Got a Bible. But 100 years later, I'm like, how cool is that? You know, I have this Bible. It's got my name on. Pretty cool. Pretty cool. So there's all kinds of stuff to do. And it just drives me crazy that, you know, people,
Starting point is 00:10:51 I'm so sick of toys and telling kids to pick up their toys and throw and grab away. And my kids and my kids have toys on top of toys. And I fight them. I throw them away. I hope they don't listen to this show because I'm telling you, I just throw them away. What happened to the little,
Starting point is 00:11:07 I don't know. I don't know. I haven't seen it in a while. Maybe it's upstairs in that pile of crap of toys you got up there. All right, I'll go look. No, I haven't found it yet. Okay, well, why don't you play with one of those other things? Because I don't know where that other toy is.
Starting point is 00:11:20 I hope no one threw it out. So, you know, there you go. There's my little Christmas shopping help for you. Early Christmas shopping. We'll do more gifts at another time on the Jeff Fisher show here on the Blaze Radio Network. But I just wanted to walk you through a little bit and remind you, remind you. It's just two months away. Yes, two months away, a little over two months away from Christmas.
Starting point is 00:11:46 Be ready. Are you? I'm not. Holy crap, I'm not. I do not even want to. see the Christmas stuff, and I've seen it in my garage, boxes of Christmas stuff.
Starting point is 00:11:58 What I'm thinking about doing, and if you'd like to be a part of it, you know, maybe we'll have a big watch party. I'm thinking about pulling everything out of my garage, putting it in the middle of the road, and torching it. Just having a big bonfire in the middle of the road of stuff in the garage,
Starting point is 00:12:16 and then I'll be just like the kids. I'll be just like the kids with their toys. It'll be like, man have you seen that one? I used to have a jacket that looked like, yeah, nope, don't have it, don't know where it is. I know, but I had it in a box. It was in, oh, that's right. We burned everything in the garage.
Starting point is 00:12:36 Oh, why do we do that? Shouldn't have burned that stuff. So much more to come to. We'll get to it. I promise. We'll get to it all today. Just, you know, trying to work my way through this thing today. You could tweet me at Jeffie.
Starting point is 00:12:50 MRA, Facebook, Jeffrey Fisher. We'll get to all the big stories, I promise. We'll get to the big ones. We'll get to the small ones. We'll get to the little ones. We will get to infotainment on the Blaze Radio Network. This is the Jeff Fisher Show on the Blaze Radio Network. Yes, blaze.com.
Starting point is 00:13:25 And of course, our weekend broadcast, mine, Michael Pelka, immediately following this broadcast. Will Cain, S.E. Cup, right after Mike Salsato, right after Will and S.E. Mike Slater and Joe Pags wrapping up the day. All right here on the Blaze Radio Network. All right, back to some of these gifts. I was looking at, if you follow me on Twitter, at Jeffie MRA. I didn't get some ideas.
Starting point is 00:13:52 A local tools of local factories. There's some factories may be closed. There's a lot of empty factories you can tour. I'll guarantee you that. However, it is kind of a cool idea. You can tour the factories, and they all have tours. One of the things I always wanted to tour with my kids, and he's still, my youngest son is still after me to do it,
Starting point is 00:14:13 and I keep meaning to do it is I want to go to the trash company. You know, there were a couple in Florida I meant to go to because I know they recycle. So now I've got to hunt down a trash company here in Texas. And you go watch them burn the trash. and bring in all the trash, and someday, son, you too can be a garbage man. You've got to let the kids know what the future is, right? But some of the, like a trampoline, oh, I'm not done with the gifts. I am not done with the gifts.
Starting point is 00:14:45 These are, this is cool stuff. And you know what? We're coming up on the holidays. Now's the time to order this? Yeah. Now's the time to order it. Get it in the house. Get it in the back closet.
Starting point is 00:14:55 Get it ready for Christmas. Get it off your plate. Okay? Don't come back to me. Month and a half from now. Scambling for gifts. Wondering how you're going to get it. Pay an extra delivery money.
Starting point is 00:15:07 Hoping you get free shipping because you've ordered more than $500 worth of stuff. No. Order it now. Get the free shipping. Get it to the house. And then you sit back when everybody's running around crazy thinking, I listen to Jeffie. I have my gifts.
Starting point is 00:15:23 Done. Swing set. You know. You can buy them clothes. It's a question. You know, if you're living in winter sports with the sled and the toboggan, oh, you know. I grew up obviously in Michigan.
Starting point is 00:15:43 Maybe it's not obvious, but I grew up in Michigan. And my aunt, my one aunt, still hates me to this day. I know that's a surprise that I have a relative that hates me. And she bought me ice skates. Now, they were figure skates. They weren't hockey skates, and if you know skates, you know, the figure skates have the, you know, the little chop cutters on the front where you stop. I'm sure that's the professional word for them, too, the chop cutters, so you can stop. And then the hockey skates, right, where they don't have, where they don't have the chop cutters and the straight blades.
Starting point is 00:16:18 But they bought me these really nice ice skates. And even as a child, I knew that I did not. like winter. I wanted to do everything I could to get out of the great state of Michigan where there was winter, a whole bunch of months of the year. Okay? So as soon as I could, I did. This is America, and I hopped on a bus and left.
Starting point is 00:16:46 Okay. Now, my aunt to this day, I think I wore those skates once, and that was the Christmas, whether it was Christmas or around the Christmas holiday that I got my skates. and I went out back with the little pond that they had and, you know, wallowed around on that thing for a few minutes. Put them back in the box, said thank you, and never wore them again. And she hates me to this day because of that. I mean, she doesn't hate.
Starting point is 00:17:15 Yeah, I think maybe she does. Maybe she does. Hates me like poison for not wearing those ice skates. You know why I didn't wear them? Because it was ice skates. But if you know someone that likes it, You know, winter sports and wants to be part of it. Okay.
Starting point is 00:17:31 All right. It's fine with me. Don't worry about me. And then you have a sleeping bags are cool, flashlights, a big toy box. That's a good idea for the toys. A toy that's not a toy yet for the toys. Personal set of scriptures, not a bad idea. Your own, I, someone, someone gave me a Bible.
Starting point is 00:17:52 Oh, man, I don't know how many, you know, I was 150 years ago. and I had my name inscribed on it and gave me a, you know, the first page has your name, who gave it to you, the date and stuff. I mean, that's been with me forever. It's been with me for 152 years. I love it. The jewelry box. And then you have the other learning gifts, the telescopes, the magnifying glass.
Starting point is 00:18:15 What kid doesn't like a magnifying glass? Who doesn't want a friar ant once in a while? Strong magnets are cool. Those that come with the science kits and the magic kits. a cookbook and apron with the chef hat. That's cool. I mean, that's cool for a, you know, the non-gender gift. Because you thought I meant giving that to a girl, didn't you?
Starting point is 00:18:37 Look at your face. When I said cookbook and apron and a chef hat, you thought I meant to give it to a girl. My gosh. Talk about a war on women. An easel chalkboard, gardening tools. What kid doesn't want a hoe? Bug catching tools. I'll go with the magnifying glass.
Starting point is 00:18:57 Yes. Binoculars, globes are cool. You know, if you follow me on Twitter at FEMRA, you know that I retweet tweets from a company in London, England, Ballerby. Ballerby Globes. I want a Ballerby Globe so bad. I love Globes. And I've got several globes in the house, but I do not have a Ballerby Globe. Valerie, if you'd like me to do commercials for you, let's talk.
Starting point is 00:19:21 But I would, yeah, that's what I'm going to be doing. I'm going to be doing commercials for a London Globe company. But they are so cool, and I love globes. If I could have, I love globes, it's a great gift. And even the cheaper ones are a great gift. You get the ones that turn solar, you know, in the light, you set them on a stand, and then when daytime comes up, they turn. I have one of those.
Starting point is 00:19:43 It's really cool. And you have the ones that light up there to look at nightlight. The kid needs light in the room. You know, use a globe. It's got a little bulb in it. You turn it on. It's their night light. It's the globe.
Starting point is 00:19:52 It's very cool. It's a good gift. That's a great gift. And, oh, my gosh. They learn geography of the earth. Wonderful. You can even get some that have raised up. So you say, oh, these are the mountains.
Starting point is 00:20:04 And those are the valleys. There's the ocean. Look. It's a learning tool, too. Oh, my gosh. What? Now, there's educational apps online. Today, you can learn so much online.
Starting point is 00:20:17 It's amazing. I mean, my kids are homeschooled and all their classes, you know, most of their stuff that they study, except the stuff that I put them out back are, you know, online. So you have educational apps. It says here, a refill for an easy bake oven. You know, I bought one of those damn easy bake oven for my daughter. She had to have one.
Starting point is 00:20:40 Had to have an easy bake oven. We got to have an easy bake oven. First of all, instead of buying your kid an easy bake oven, an easy bake oven, I got nothing against you. I love you, okay? You're great. It worked. It worked.
Starting point is 00:20:51 We made the little bougie brownies, whatever it was that comes out of the easy bake oven. But then you have to go buy new stuff. You know what you need? learn how to bake real stuff. Okay, don't use your easy bake oven. More in a moment on the Blaze Radio Network. This is the Jeff Fisher Show. Only on the Blaze Radio Network.
Starting point is 00:21:58 I'm coming, I'm coming, I'm coming, I'm coming, I'm coming, I'm common, I was just reading about, I didn't realize that today, first of all, big weekend in Dallas, huge weekend in the city of Dallas, Texas, where this show originates. out of the Mercury Studios. Welcome to it, Blaze Radio Network, Jeff Fisher's show. You can participate by calling 888-903-33, if you'd like. Or relax. Sit down, drink your coffee.
Starting point is 00:22:23 Smoke a butt. Don't worry about it. I got you, okay? First, last weekend of the fair. Last weekend of the state fair, it's the last weekend for your chance to rub elbows with the people of the great state of Texas and nothing else going on in the area. So don't worry about hugging people, touching people. The guy that's sweating next to you is sweating because he's hot from the fair.
Starting point is 00:22:46 He doesn't have anything else wrong with him. Nope, he's fine. Don't worry about it. It wasn't just because they were at the fair. You saw him pounding down a deep-fried Oreo. He's fine. Don't worry about it. He's fine.
Starting point is 00:23:02 Oreo. Saw him downing a deep-fried pumpkin spice Oreo. Maybe a fried cheesecake. They had some fried cheesecake in this building yesterday that looked really good. And it's what I go on record is saying I did not have any. However, now I'm regretting it. They had alligator on a stick. That was just like a big sausage on a stick.
Starting point is 00:23:24 I mean, I like gator. I've had gator before. Yeah, it's okay. You know, I like gator nuggets. It's good. But the sausage, I mean, we need a little. You always have ketchup with sausage, which there wasn't any when they had the chocolate bacon amaze balls. You can write your own jokes.
Starting point is 00:23:43 The fried Thanksgiving dinner. And, of course, the fried sweet Texas. The fried sweet Texas looked pretty good, too. Piccon pie, peach cobbler, buttermilk pie, served with a scoop of vanilla bluebell ice cream. Now, before you go to the fair, to pick up your fried sweet Texas, you should join normal. This is... They're hosting the Dallas Marijuana March today. Yay!
Starting point is 00:24:19 It's the... They're going to go from downtown Dallas to Dealey Plaza. Now, they're working in conjunction with the city of Dallas and their special events. It'll be a historic event for marijuana law reform in the Lone Star State. Marijuana consumers and non-toking lovers of liberty alike will peacefully assemble, protest, and march for new approach to criminal marijuana prohibition. Hmm. Do I want to go to that?
Starting point is 00:24:50 Man, do I want to go to that? My favorite line here is, join us as we take back our hemp heritage. This is going to be a peaceful protest. And together, we're going to continue ending cannabis prohibition, one Texan at a time. Isn't it high time? you get involved.
Starting point is 00:25:17 Do your part. Contact local TV, radio, print, web news, urge them to cover the hashtag Dallas 420 March. So I went ahead and tweeted it for you. If you follow me at Jeff EMRA, I should probably put that up on my Facebook page too, Jeff Fisher, just so that everybody's aware of it because I want them to know about the,
Starting point is 00:25:41 we're going to take back our hemp heritage today in Dallas with the March. And it's the last weekend for the fair. So something to really look forward to there. I really kind of like the fairs, but I can't bring myself to go this year for several reasons. Now, look at me like that. I know I don't have, you know, it's not a big chance of me getting Ebola.
Starting point is 00:26:06 I got it. But, you know, this is possible. And seriously, stop looking at me like that. I know there's only a few communicable diseases that I could get, you know, through their airborne, flu, that antrovirus D-68 thing that's going around. I know, the odds are against it, I know. Because nobody rarely gets sick like that from places like the fair. Are you kidding me?
Starting point is 00:26:32 Nobody gets sick there, right? So, just let it go. Go and have a good time on me. Oh, my gosh. A Maryland firm has recalled. I forgot to get to this at the top of the hour. I apologize. A Maryland firm has recalled lamb products that have been produced without an import inspection.
Starting point is 00:26:54 How does this happen in America? The lamb products were packaged on October 21st of last year. They've been out since last year. And all through, they'll be a package. October 21st, 2013, September 2nd, 20th, 21st, 22nd of this year. The following products are subject to a recall lamb packs, lamb bone and legs, lamb boneless legs, lamb saddles, lamb racks, lamb loins, lamb shoulders, lamb shanks, lamb trim, lamb for stew. I go to the grocery store quite often. I know, and it's tough to tell, but I do.
Starting point is 00:27:36 I go to the grocery store quite often. I know, you can quote me on that. And I see lamb shanks in the... The department of the rack there in the little cooler green. But I've not seen the lamb packs, lamb bone in legs, lamb boneless legs, lamb saddles. I know I haven't seen lamb saddles. Lamb racks, lamb loins. It feels like I've seen those.
Starting point is 00:28:06 Lamb shoulders. Lamb shanks, I see all the time. Lamb trim. Lamb for stew. So if you have a place of purchasing groceries that have those products, they've been recalled. There's issue because they did not have an import inspection. And this is a health hazard situation.
Starting point is 00:28:32 What is this? Is this a one or two or three? Don't forget what these get rated. And you could be in big trouble. It's rated a one. It doesn't say. What do you mean it doesn't say? What kind of crappy recall is this?
Starting point is 00:28:47 We don't even know if it's really super bad or if it's just, kind of bad. Okay, well, listen, if it's a class one, it's a health hazard situation where there is a reasonable probability that the use of the product will cause serious adverse health consequences or death, okay? If it's class two, health hazard situation where there's a remote probability of adverse health consequences from the use of the product. And if it's cash three, class three, it's a situation where the use of the product will not cause adverse health consequences. I'm betting that just because you didn't have an import inspection, probably it's okay. It's not going to cause adverse health consequences, but it could. So be careful if you're,
Starting point is 00:29:27 I would check your freezers for those lamb saddles that have been recalled. Okay. Last weekend, we had God Guns and Giving here in Dallas at the Mercury Studios. Thank you. Thank you so much for those of you that came to the museum. Thank you so much for those of you that came to our shooting event last Saturday. That's, my gosh, we have so much fun there every year. The last two years have been great. I'm not sure if I did better this year. Last year shooting.
Starting point is 00:30:00 Yes, yes, we shot pigeons. But it was, you know, it was a great time. And we had all the volunteers that helped. All the visitors, thank you so much for coming and helping out Mercury One. You can always go and help at mercury one.org. The museum was tremendous. I know Glenn's busy trying to find a way to take it on the road, which would be great because there's so many cool stories.
Starting point is 00:30:30 And you get lost. There's so many cool stories that really, I think, I don't think we need to put, I would vote for not putting as much in and just being able to tell the stories. of the ones that are there instead of trying to get lost with all these stories and this great article. I mean, they're so cool to see, but it just gets lost in your head because there's so many other
Starting point is 00:30:57 cool stories. My favorite story from Reed Moon was, you know, the story of Pope Pius, the Seventh Bible, with Napoleon. And, I mean, it's just, I won't tell you that story now, but it's really good. So, you know, thanks to, you know, and Liberty Safe was out here. They were, they had a thing for Mercury 1 that they were, that they donated, Minuteman, Iraq's, Black Grain Ordinance, Operation Barbecue Relief, hello. Those guys are always great.
Starting point is 00:31:27 And I mean, always great. And, you know, and Elmfort Gun Raines right over here in Irving and Dallas, tremendous. Jeff Allen. Although I didn't, I apologize. I had to be back nice and early. I didn't get a chance to see Jeff's performance, but I saw him. you know, before the show. He's always really funny.
Starting point is 00:31:46 David Barton was there, so thank you all for coming very much at being a part of it. And if you weren't a part of it and here, why? What were you doing? What were you doing? It was better. What?
Starting point is 00:31:56 Staying home? I think of wishing you were here looking at the stuff, not being able to travel. I mean, what? It wasn't even full-blown Ebola yet then, was it? Oh, maybe one guy. I can't remember. Here we go.
Starting point is 00:32:10 This is the Jeff Fisher Show. on the Blaze Radio Network is the Jeff Fisher Show. It is. How are you? Man, we have so many things to get to yet today. And I'm just, I'm discombobulated a little bit today. So, excuse me. I just have kind of been out of it.
Starting point is 00:32:54 I'm not sure what direction I'm looking at today. However, we do have some information on Ferguson. Yes, it's still going on. Yes. Operation Ferguson is still going on. Yes, there's still gatherings in Ferguson. And yes, there's people still calling for Officer Wilson's head. And yes, they're still pissed and hands up, don't shoot. We want to just burn down the city.
Starting point is 00:33:21 And it's just horrible. Yes. Now, we do have information up on the blaze this morning about testimony from Officer Darren Wilson, who provided his account of the event. His officer Darren Wilson was told the authorities that during the scuffle, Mr. Brown reached for the gun. It was fired twice in the car. According to forensic tests performed by the FBI, the first bullet struck Mr. Brown in the arm. The second bullet missed.
Starting point is 00:33:54 The forensics test showed Mr. Brown's blood on the gun, as well as on the interior door panel and on Officer. Wilson's uniform. Officer Wilson told authorities that Mr. Brown had punched and scratched him repeatedly, leaving swelling on his face and cuts on his neck. Officer Wilson appeared for four hours before a St. Louis County grand jury, which was, you know, was convened to determine whether there's probable cause that he committed a crime. Now, before we move on from there, there's still people calling that it doesn't matter he needs to be indicted. Now, you know, yay, yeah, yeah. never mind that whole court of law thing. Legal experts have said that this decision to testify was surprising,
Starting point is 00:34:38 given that it is not required by law. Of course, it was not required by the police officer. He's going to testify. If he doesn't testify, oh my gosh, even more big trouble. The struggle in the car may prove to be a more influential piece of information for the grand jury, one that speaks to Officer Wilson's state of mind. Yeah, you think? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:34:59 Now, his account contradicts others, especially the new apparent information that comes from a witness that claims he saw the shooting Michael Brown from start to finish. An Ohio resident. An Ohio resident. Huh. Okay. I'll read the blaze story to you.
Starting point is 00:35:28 Okay. An Ohio resident reportedly revealed new details to the grand jury. Okay. In an interview with the St. Louis dispatch, the eyewitness recalled four he details. After an initial scuffle in the car, the officer did not fire until Brown turned back toward him. Okay. Brown put his arms out to his sides but never raised his hands high. Brown staggered toward Wilson despite commands to stop.
Starting point is 00:36:06 The two were about 20 to 25 feet apart when the last shots were fired. The man's account differs from some of the other Ferguson residents who have claimed that Brown's hands were up in the air and he was shot and that he was running away from the officer the entire time. The witness reportedly Black said he saw Wilson's police vehicle stop near Brown and his friend Dorian Johnson as they walked in the middle of the street. He said he heard the officer say something to the pair, wasn't sure what was said. Officer Wilson then drove past them and proceeded to back his vehicle up. Looking at the scene unfold from the right side of the police SUV, the witness claims he saw a tussle going on and recalled seeing Wilson's hat come off. The tussle was allegedly followed by a gunshot,
Starting point is 00:36:52 sending Brown running away from the officer. Wilson drew his firearm and yelled, stop, stop, stop. The witness said Brown did not stop. mumbled something he could not clearly hear and took a step toward Wilson. When he stepped foot on that street, the officer told him to stop again, and he fired three shots. When Brown got hit, he staggered like, oh, and his body moved, and then he looked down. His hands were up like this, gestures with his arms out to the side, palms upward, and he was looking at the officer and was coming toward him trying to keep him.
Starting point is 00:37:32 his feet and stand up. The officer took a few steps back and yelled, stop. Michael was trying to stay on his feet. He was 20 to 25 feet from the officer. He started staggering. Four more shots. Michael was on his way down. We were thinking, oh my God, oh my God, stop, stop.
Starting point is 00:37:57 He was already on his way down when he fired those last shots. It could be in trouble. Amazing. Amazing. This is the Jeff Fisher Show. Only on the Blaze Radio Network. The experiment was a success. Begin Life Force reboot program.
Starting point is 00:38:35 Now. It's stable. It's alive. Set it loose. This is the Jeff Fisher Show on the Blaze Radio Network. Oh, hey, how you doing? I know. I am reading a fascinating story about this administration.
Starting point is 00:39:14 It is amazing. And is it really amazing? I have no idea. These people will drive me insane. We will get to that. I know you don't want to talk about Ebola. I know, I don't either. I know you don't want to talk about ISIS.
Starting point is 00:39:29 I know. I know. I got it. I know they're taking over. I know they're miles away from Baghdad. I know they've gotten planes. They're being trained. Iraqi pilots are training ISIS to fly a couple of planes that they've got stashed somewhere. I know that.
Starting point is 00:39:43 I know that we've told them what we're not going to do, and I know you don't want to talk about it. We're going to have to talk a little bit about it. You've got to know a little bit for the weekend. You can't just walk around, going to the pot parade, not knowing something. Okay? But you can, look, what's the answer? Love.
Starting point is 00:40:03 Love is the answer. According to Glenn Beck, love is contagious. So you should get a T-shirt. You can support Mercury One charity by ordering Love is Contagious. Available exclusively on Twitter. I'll go ahead and retweet that, or you can follow at Glenn Beck. But if you follow at Jeffie MRA, I just tweeted you can order it on Twitter. Love is contagious.
Starting point is 00:40:34 I got this email. Hey, Jeffie. give Glenn a message. Okay, that's what I'm here for, Glenn's message boy. Okay. So here you go. All right. I'm a great granny, and I watch the blaze every day at 3 p.m. Mountain Time.
Starting point is 00:40:51 I listen to the radio show every day. Since I work with computers in a cubicle, I can listen with my earplugs. My problem? My boss thinks I'm listening to Easy Jazz or something smooth. When the four of you guys start interacting with your humorous, conversations, it cracks me up, and I'm trying not to laugh hysterically, so he will not tell me to pull my plugs. Also, if you could give Glenn a hug, it's okay, my boy. You're doing good work. Keep on giving us news we don't hear anyplace else. Warn your neighbor, but you can't force
Starting point is 00:41:33 people to be prepared. It's called agency. Maybe urgency. Not sure. Give us some humor every day. The four of you, we need to laugh. Well, who is this old gal? A great-granny, and she still works. Yep, the money helps. It keeps my mind off the cancer.
Starting point is 00:41:57 In remission, though. Woo-woo. Thank you so much. Great-granny. It's tremendous. We will. First, I'd like, you know, on top of thanks and we will, perhaps you can tell your boss,
Starting point is 00:42:13 I'm listening to Glenn Beck and back off. Okay, I'm still doing my work. So take you and your little boss plan of unplugging the show and back off. Or you could just hide it. You know, either way. Either way it works, that's fine. That's not a problem.
Starting point is 00:42:32 Okay, can we, I, can we... Do I want to talk about Ebola? No, I don't want to talk about Ebola. I don't. I have got a huge stack of stories. that I never get to. I never get too old stuff that I've had here for, stuff that I've had here for, you know, two months.
Starting point is 00:42:57 For instance, schools in Richland, Washington are going to be swing-free. Administrators worry the children walking by who get whacked in the head by feet of their swinging peers, so they're just going to take the swings out. Maybe you could, I don't know. Here's what a school teacher could do is, hey, look out. Don't walk in front or behind the swings. That would be a teacher, though, right?
Starting point is 00:43:22 I mean, you wouldn't want to have to do that. You'd want to just not have the swings there at all, right? Now, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, we know how what a great place that is. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention fact sheet, noted that roughly 200,000 children, 200,000 children visit the emergency room each year with playground injuries. And the report pegged swings as the number one cause of injury on home playgrounds. Okay.
Starting point is 00:44:04 That home playgrounds, not school, not park home playgrounds. So that means they're being a little bit more brazen. they're probably not swinging as fast as they can. And they go, hey, Billy, come here, come here. And kick him in the face because the kid's not going to stand there and get kicked in the face. And you know what else happens? What else happens? You walk by swing.
Starting point is 00:44:35 Let's say you walk by swing. And nobody says, hey, look out. Or nobody says, hey, Billy, idiot. They're swinging. Move around farther away. you walk by and you're too close and you get kicked. The next time you walk up to a swing, you go, oh, hey, they're swinging. I don't want to get kicked again.
Starting point is 00:44:57 I'll walk around the other way. So incredibly stupid. And $200,000, really? Really? $200,000? Accredited to swings. Maybe they were playing on the swing set fell off, hurt themselves. Okay, I'll give you that.
Starting point is 00:45:12 Trying to climb up on the bars, whatever. It's fine. Jay Leno, Nears Deal to launch CNBC. show, that'll be great. That'll be great. A city in Belgium, building a two-mile-long underground pipeline to carry 1,500 gallons of beer an hour. Yeah, I'm going to have to actually read that story. This has been in my stack for a while. I love the headline, but I actually have to, by using the pipeline, we will keep hundreds of lorries out of the city center. You need for the brewery installing a similar system.
Starting point is 00:45:50 Yeah, see the story's boring. Three-mile beer pipeline. Brought 13,737 gallons of beer. Headline works better. A woman says airline grounded her due to her tweets. I could see that happening. They monitor the tweets, that's for sure. The last couple times I've flown, I have had maybe a couple of
Starting point is 00:46:18 issues flying. No, no, just maybe some issues. They decided that they were, you know, to make us miss a flight, that kind of thing. And, you know, I tweet. So, and they respond quickly. They respond quickly.
Starting point is 00:46:40 Oh, look at this. I've had this, the funeral of the like button. I didn't I see this. This was about a month ago. Wow. The funeral of the. like button. Now this the oldest church in Amsterdam, the
Starting point is 00:46:54 like, was laid to rest. Moriners carried a coffin shaped like a Facebook like button to the church and marked its passing in a ceremony led by Eddie Reefus. Why? It's a symbolic rejection
Starting point is 00:47:10 of what sometimes called hashtag activism or clickivism. Substitute the online actions for offline activity. The organizers of the funeral reject the notion that clicking on the like button constitutes doing anything productive. Here's their manifesto. Not too long ago, this development led to a miraculous occurrence.
Starting point is 00:47:37 A new technology turned the act of liking into a commodity, hence into a symbolic totem and a new belief. At a time when faith in religion and our monetary system is crissue. rumbling. At first, these lights seemed innocent. A gift bestowed upon us unconditionally and in over by abundance. Sometimes the likes would pile up like presents under a Christmas tree. But soon we started craving for more, and eventually the like became the opium of the masses. And now society has forgotten the real act of liking. And instead of taking action to make change happen or activism has been reduced and confined to the square inches of our computer screen, activism has become clicktivism. We express our dislike of what is happening in the real
Starting point is 00:48:28 world with a like. We as a society need to focus on real actions and intentions rather than the symbolic reward bestowed on things by a mouse click. We must never forget the real reward of liking lies amongst ourselves and inside our communities. The death and funeral. This is the Jeff Fisher Show on the Blaze Radio Network.

So all kinds of stories left to get to in this pile of trash that I can't get to. And then maybe we'll get to a little top stories for you. I mean, we've got to do a little, right?
Starting point is 00:50:22 Don't we have to do a little? I mean, I don't know. I just feel like I feel like I've got to talk a little bit about the Ebola dog. Guardian Google Glass user treated for internet addiction caused by the device. Oh, no. Oh, no. patient, a 31-year-old U.S. Navy servicemen, had checked into the Sharman. Oh, no. He's addicted. He's addicted.

I may have to check. Watch surrogate, then get back to me, okay? Oh, my gosh. This is bad news. I told you earlier. I grew up in Michigan, and according to the Daily Mail, water temperature of the Great Lakes. Over 6 degrees colder than normal. It's threatening an even earlier and colder winter in the Midwest.
Starting point is 00:51:21 Oh, no. Michigan residents may see a cold and icy winter arrive sooner this year. Oh, no. Average surface temperatures for both Lake Superior and Lake Michigan have dropped. Oh, no. Both lakes experience temperature drops of 6.1 degrees. Oh, no. lakes may also ice up sooner because of the extra chilly water temperatures.
Starting point is 00:51:45 Oh, no. So be careful in Michigan. The Great Lake State. Now everybody knows that Michigan is the mitten, right? You hold up your hand, you hold up your right hand, and you point to where you live. That's how you know you're a person from Michigan. That's how you know you're on Michigan there. If you hold up your right hand and you say, I'm from right here.
Starting point is 00:52:09 some people live up in the thumb up in the middle and the middle finger all the way up there on Mackinah Island Upper Michigan there's only a few people that admit to be in from Upper Michigan nobody wants to be a Uper
Starting point is 00:52:23 but do you know how you remember what the Great Lakes are Can you tell me the Great Lakes? Huh, huh, can you, Kenny, Kenny how many Great Lakes are there? Huh, huh, huh, how many? How many?
Starting point is 00:52:36 That's right, five. Right? H-O-M-E, yeah, that's five. I have to remember myself. Yes, the Great Lakes. And how do you remember the Great Lakes? Count them, and you spell out Holmes. H-O-M-E-S.
Starting point is 00:52:53 H-O-M-E-S. H-O-M-S. Huron, Ontario, Michigan. Erie, Superior. That's your class today. Yes, the Great Lakes. From the Great Lakes State of Michigan. Lake Huron, like Ontario,

Starting point is 00:53:33 Limping around, feeling looking good, though. You were, Kim. Seriously, you're one good-looking man. Oh, no. Obama's credit card canceled. I mean, it doesn't cancel. It got denied. That's all.
Starting point is 00:53:46 It got denied. That's all. He said it was rejected. I guess I don't use it enough. I thought there was some fraud going on. Unfortunately, Michelle had hers. How in the world? This is the president.
Starting point is 00:54:19 He has golfed a couple hundred times. Has he golfed since he hit the 200 mark? Or has he felt bad about hit the 200 mark? 200 times. And you know, where'd I do with that? I think this paper had, yeah. According to Don Van Nata Jr.'s book, who doesn't read that,
Starting point is 00:54:43 called First Off the Tea, Dwight Eisenhower golfed 800 times over his eight years in office. Those were different times, though. Eisenhower was the man. He didn't have to do anything. The world was great. The country was on fire. The war was over. He was everything was all good.
Starting point is 00:54:59 President Woodrow Wilson golfed 1600. times in eight years, 1,600 times in 8 years. Now, I still, I could probably do it myself. I don't really, maybe Don Van Natta can do it, so I don't have to do it. But I would like to know what the differences were, because I think that, you know,
Starting point is 00:55:20 Barack is out playing 18 holes, and Woodrow might have been playing 9, or maybe had a 6-hole golf course put in out back, because 6,800 times seems an awful lot for, you know, and 18 holes. You know, we probably had a par 3-9 hole put in out back. That's on elections. I don't want to talk about that. Elections coming up around the window.
Starting point is 00:55:52 So we've got elections November 4th. And we need to care about it. We do. We need to care about them. I got it. I just don't want to. I really would be okay. with if you're an incumbent, get out.
Starting point is 00:56:08 I don't care who you are. Get out. But Jeff, what if they're good? I don't care. Get out. But we've got some really good people. Yep, we do. Get out.
Starting point is 00:56:20 Well, these people have only been in there one term. Great. Get out. I want new people. I don't want, and I don't want returners. I don't want somebody that has been in office and then run to get back. No, first time. Other than that, get out.
Starting point is 00:56:33 you haven't been there before great get out and the first person that tells anyone well the way we do it here you're fired point blank we're coming in and we're going to read it we're going to do Washington D.C
Starting point is 00:56:50 and we're going to look at things differently and we're going to do this and it isn't going to be the same piece of pie that it's always been I know but we need to think about how it's been done over the past you're fired get out
Starting point is 00:57:05 think again we have a new way to thinking about the of thinking about the country but we really need Jeff we need to consider how it's been done because it's important that we figure out you're fired
Starting point is 00:57:20 but we have to go over to the state department and figure out how they do that you're fired the president why you're fired get out look I've been here in Washington D.C. working with people in office forever I know you have get out so I'm okay with that I'm almost okay with that.
Starting point is 00:57:39 All new people, 100% across the board. 100% across the board. Just get out. I think that's my mantra. I think that's my mantra for this election, 2014, November. Get out. The Jeff Fisher Show, the Blaze Radio Network. The Jeff Fisher Show on the Blaze Radio Network.
Starting point is 00:58:43 Howdy. Welcome to it. 1-888-90-3-33-9-3 is the phone number. If you wish to participate, one, east of the Rockies, 1-88-90-33-93. West of the Rockies, 1-88-9-0-0-th. You know, for those of you that don't know why I do that, I know it's walking down memory lane. But a long time ago, 100 years ago,
Starting point is 00:59:17 when there was a show with Art Bell called Coast to Coast A.m. And now it's with, what's his face out of St. Louis, George Norey. Art was from the high desert, Perumph, Nevada, Coast to Coast A.m. And in the opening of his show, he would give out the phone numbers. Now, in those days, he had a, he had a number, toll-free number, that you could call west of the Rockies, a different number if you were east of the Rockies, a different number if you were south of the Rio Grande. And then if you were in international, he had the international calls, and you must dial your
Starting point is 00:59:56 international operator and get the access code. Then dial to 0.3.5, hashtag, 0.2 star. And it was just so, it was just, that's just the way it was in those days, but the open was great. So anytime, anytime that you hear Dancing Queen, or at least I should say, anytime I, hear Dancing Queen from Aba because that was one of Art's rejoined songs for a number of years on
Starting point is 01:00:23 Coast to Coast A.m. with Art Bell. That was, you'd hear the phone numbers under Abba Dancing Queen and so 1-88-908-903-33. East of the Rockies, dial 1.8-88-90-33-93. International callers, dial 1-8-8-8-8-8-8-8. 888-90-0-303-93.
Starting point is 01:00:50 Call your international operator and get the access code. So, a little inside baseball for you. Let's talk a little Ebola. I know you don't want. I know, I know, I know. I know. Relax. We're just going to hit a couple of big stuff because I still am a little concerned.
Starting point is 01:01:05 You know, I'm right here at Ground Zero. Hello, Dallas, Texas. The Metroplex. Hello. Ebola Central right here. This is it, baby. and, you know, of course, in the great state of Ohio, because I know I might have Ebola, but I was going to go to Ohio anyway.
Starting point is 01:01:26 Oh, it's okay. I'm fine. I'm fine. I'm self-monitoring. I'm a nurse. I'm fine. I know. Look, you know, I feel fine.
Starting point is 01:01:34 A little heated, a little overheated, but I'm going anyway. It's fine. I'm not worried about it. Can't hardly catch the damn disease anyway. That's what they tell me. So once she got to Ohio, then it was, well, you know, I'm getting a little warmer than I thought. I've been warm like this for days. I'm starting to sweat.
Starting point is 01:01:54 I'm meeting all these people and flying and stuff, but I've got to fly back to Dallas. And I really have a temperature higher than I thought. Hello, CDC. Yeah, I'm being monitored for Ebola from Dallas. And I'm a nurse. And I had direct contact with Duncan. You know, the guy that died, came in. Come to the country that lied on his application and got into the country without still when he was
Starting point is 01:02:17 sick and now we're supposed to know that they feel like he was robbed in the hospital that guy. Yeah, yeah. Anyway, I'm really hot. I've got fever. My fever is like 99.6.2 22, 2,2. And I was wondering, should I fly?
Starting point is 01:02:36 Yeah, fly back to the house. Oh, no, go ahead. You're fine. Listen, the protocol is 95.9. 777 and you're only 95.6.0. You're below protocol. Go ahead. Get out the plane. It wasn't that close, but it was pretty damn close. It was like someone with common sense would say, you know, let's not do that. And now the message is, she may have been sicker than she let on before.
Starting point is 01:03:10 So we're going to, you know, just out of an abundance of caution, we're going to contact the other people that were on the plane flying from Dallas to Ohio, not just the Ohio to Dallas people. Which is why the people in Ohio closed a couple of schools,
Starting point is 01:03:33 which is why some of the people in Dallas closed four schools, because those people were on the flight. It's kind, I mean, I feels like an overreaction to me, but you never know. And let's air on the side of abundance of caution.
Starting point is 01:03:51 right? Right. Let's do that. Okay. Yes. So we had the, so what else is happening with Ebola in the Dallas area? We'll just do some hell. I just want you to know what's going on. You know, because everybody, look, I pulled the cut of Shep Smith, yapping his mouth. I don't even want to hear him. You know, it was, I listened to it yesterday. I pulled it. I had the audio. I had, I had Brittany cut it up. I got a couple of cuts of Shep going off on his little lecture, his viewers, and everything is fine.
Starting point is 01:04:21 and don't worry about it, and we all suck for telling you about Ebola, because Ebola is fine. In the middle of all this, you remember the politics is in the mix. Yeah, okay, thanks, Shep. Really? Really? Really? You're going to lecture us in New York? Okay.
Starting point is 01:04:38 You go right ahead. You go right ahead, Shep. No problem. But I don't even want to hear him. I don't. I can't take him. I can't take it. So,
Starting point is 01:04:50 Thursday, the Dallas, County Commissioners decided not to issue a disaster declaration, okay, after the man from Liberia died and we have the two nurses infected until it's necessary. This is Judge Clay Jenkins, who is like the county judge, and he's like the county law guy, because now you have the mayor of Dallas and Judge Clay Jenkins, county judge in charge, You know, some places have the county mayor and the city mayor and Mr. Bigshot. So Clay has inserted himself and he's the man
Starting point is 01:05:26 and he's Mr. I'm going to be in front of the cameras and he knows it all. And he and the mayor of Dallas can talk down to everybody and make everybody feel like they know better than we do. It pisses me off. So just knock it off, Clay and Mr. Mayor of Dallas. I got it.
Starting point is 01:05:45 Okay? I got it. That whole talking down to us because we're worried about you spending all that money on that stupid dog, Bentley, owned by Nina Fam. And now we've moved the dog to Texas A&M's veterinary emergency team. Yeah, okay. And we've had the dog under quarantine, but we can't quarantine anyone else. We'll just self-monitor them. I got it.
Starting point is 01:06:11 You're smarter than us. Okay. He wants us to know that even though elect officials, like me, who have those powers should never use them because of the great work at the state, city and federal levels combined with the CDC. However, you know what, we want you health care workers who had contact with the man. If you could just sign this paper saying you're going to stay home, that'd be fine. But don't worry about it because you're smarter than us and do better right from the beginning,
Starting point is 01:06:47 right, Judge? Because heaven forbid, we just kill the dog. And I do mean kill the dog. Instead of spending all this money that you can be spending on other things, other things around the Ebola crisis, we'll just call it a crisis for now. It's not an epidemic. It's not a pandemic.
Starting point is 01:07:11 It's just a crisis, right? Really it is. We've got a couple people sick. It's scary. We wouldn't have a couple people sick if we just said, You know, we've got the bull of issue. Okay, so let's say we do have this. So let's say all this is fine.
Starting point is 01:07:30 Up to this point, why haven't we stopped people coming in from the western part of Africa? Oh. Yeah, because it doesn't make any sense to quarantine countries, does it? No. It makes sense to save a dog, though, and quarantine the dog and spend all the money on that. Right? Right. Right. I mean, even in Spain, people were pissed and got mad and did their little protest. But they said, no, it's a dog. It's got to go. Yeah, it was living with the Ebola. Yeah, it's got to go. So I'm sure Nina would be get over it. Okay. I love animals as much as anyone else. And I have had animals in my life forever. But guess what? They're still animals.
Starting point is 01:08:21 Okay We We're the rulers of earth Damn it We're humans And we won't be told what to do No I get it Okay
Starting point is 01:08:33 But the dog's got to go Hello Nina Yeah this is Nina I'm between Convulsions and barfing And explosive diarrhea I'm feeling a little bit better From this Ebola
Starting point is 01:08:47 Uh My boyfriend I don't know if he infected anybody. His workplace has 22,000 people. And I know I live in this apartment complex, but hopefully I didn't see anybody. But other than that, I'm okay.
Starting point is 01:09:04 Listen, your cute little dog, Bentley. Oh, we have to kill it. Really? Yeah, it's got to go. Okay. Why? Because you have Ebola and, We're afraid your dog may have Ebola, so it's got to go.
Starting point is 01:09:30 What if I cry and scream and holler? Nope, sorry, got to go. Sorry. Sorry, the dog doesn't count now. It may have Ebola. It may carry the disease. Have a nice day. Now, what do we do with the trash?
Starting point is 01:09:47 I don't know. What do we do with the trash? Well, now the University of Texas is preparing to accept the Ebola waste from Dallas. You want to make a moment? million bucks, tell them you'll take care of the Ebola waste. Do you want to be that, do you want to be that guy? Do you want to be the guy that picks up the Ebola waste? Why not? It's safe, right? You can't catch anything from it, right? So be that guy. Oh, why do we have to have a special thing? Why can't we just bag it up? Put it in the trash bag. We saw the guy on the tarmac the other day as they were
Starting point is 01:10:20 shipping her back to Atlanta, wherever the hell they were shipping to from Love Field, the day I was there, by the way. And he had his suit on, and then we had the supervisor without his suit on out on the tarmac with his little clipboard. That looked real good, too, for the optics of that. That looked great. And then the hazmat suit guy comes off the plane with no gloves and starts putting stuff in the trash bag, so it must be safe, right? Everything's fine. We're being, you know, we're being hosed. We're being hosed with this. And then we have our president of the United States of America. We can't just cut ourselves off from West Africa where this disease is raging. Our medical experts tell us that the best way to stop this disease is to stop it at its source
Starting point is 01:11:05 before it spreads even wider and becomes even more difficult to contain. Yes, and that would mean stop those people from traveling to this country. Trying to seal off an entire region of the world, if that were even possible, could actually make the situation worse. How? Mr. President, how? How, Mr. President? How? Experience shows that it could also cause people in the affected region to change their travel,
Starting point is 01:11:37 to evade screening and make the disease even harder to track. Right. Okay. No problem. No problem at all. Now, we had the big White House gathering. Of course, the new Ebola-Zar didn't show up. don't know why, although I do know why.
Starting point is 01:12:00 Because we wanted to put someone in charge the new Ebola-Zar, but the new Ebola-Zar actually answers to Sylvia Burrell, right? The Secretary of Health and Human Services. So why does the Ebola need to be at this meeting about Ebola when all the other heads are there? He's not really the head. He just answers. He's just got the title.
