Not anymore. Sorry, can't heckle baseball players. I know. I know. Used to be part of going to the game. No longer. Oh, Jeff, it's not about calling him a bum. That's being reported that a heckler said something

about one of the baseball players' moms, and she died back in 2017. So you can't say anything about her. Okay. Okay. I got it. So insensitive? Sure.

Does a major league baseball player with a contract of over $100 million who begins to cry because he was heckled because some fan said something about his mother, that counts as being the most horrific thing at a ballpark? Okay. Okay.

So apparently we've kicked the fan out of Major League Baseball altogether. He cannot go to any Major League Baseball games now because he heckled the ball player and said something about his mom who died eight years ago. Okay. What did he say? Well, nobody knows because nobody repeats. nobody reported on it and the baseball player wouldn't comment on it after the game and the manager I guess heard the heckler but he hasn't said what the heckler said either but we're to believe

that it was just this horrific thing about this baseball player's mom and because it made him cry and he's so sensitive that we have to kick the heckler out of the game out of the ballpark and he can't go to any more games ever oh okay and the opposing team has written a letter to Major League Baseball apologizing for the fan. Just incredible. We live in amazing times. Welcome. Welcome to chewing the fat. Hiring. Oh, you are? Great. Do you have a game room for recreational activities or free snacks? No, I'm not going to work for you then. Oh, Okay. So according to a new survey of a thousand professionals across the country, done by resume.io, according to this survey, they asked these thousand professionals about their must have perks while evaluating job opportunities.

Okay. It's always important to know what you're, you know, what you're walking into. one in five jensiers more than any other generation say a fun room complete with games like ping pong and other recreational activities is essential to their work environment because i don't want to come to work if i can't play ping pong or have some kind of recreational activity like can we play i don't know card games or something we need we need a game room we need a game room and you need to supply the games too, please. One in five wouldn't even consider a position if the company's offices are not pet friendly.

Those are the Gen Zers. Now, the millennials, 14% want it to be pet friendly. The Gen Xers, they are like 8% and the boomers are 4%. Yeah, the boomers don't care. Gen Ziers, 33% expect free snacks and lunches at the workplace. Oh, okay. Now, I mean, that's a nice perk. I think they're going away.

We did a story not long ago where the companies are not going to be able to write off those snacks and lunches that they've been providing for employees. So if they can't write them off, good luck. Good luck getting them is all I'm saying. then we have a one in three said a four-day work week is non-negotiable and one in four expect extended sabbatical leaves for personal development or travel i thought those were called vacations but i guess not no vacations are separate from the extended sabbatical leaves that's great we definitely i'm not working for you if i can't have my extended sabbatical leave. Wow. So this story goes on to talk about how the younger generation are pushing back against

the old model of constant hustle and burnout by valuing flexibility and a more enjoyable day-to-day experience. Yes, that's great. So, you know, if you're looking for workers and you don't offer some of this, could be tough to find the workers, unless you're going to hire, you know, the AI robot to do the job. And then we'll see because you'll be, all these people will be on an extended sabbatical, for sure. And that extended sabbatical will be called not having a job.

So you'll be able to find yourself and work on your personal development. And you'll be able to travel everywhere. You won't be able to afford it, but you'll be able to. good luck no seriously good luck because it's costing more in most states to live comfortably i was looking at the uh this i guess it's not necessarily a study but it's this look at what a family of four needs a year to live comfortably in each state of the united states so the u.s median household

income rose between 2022 and 2023 to just over 80,000 a year. Okay, that's according to the Census Bureau data. But a family of four needs at least $186,6188 a year to live comfortably in Mississippi. And I think that's the lowest. As I was going through, most of the states are between $200 and $250,000, maybe $260,000 to a

live comfortably with a family of four. Some are almost 300,000, which is incredible for a family of four. Like Connecticut, $290,368 to live comfortably with the family of four. Hawaii, 294,362. The rest are, you know, between 200 and 260,000. Iowa, hanging in there at 200,000.

$2,675 for a family of four to live comfortably. Okay. Oh, Kansas. Kansas is only $200,678. That's great. Kentucky, $192,941 for a family of four. So Kentucky is, is that lower than Mississippi? No, Mississippi, 186.

I just said that, yeah, 186. Missouri is, or I mean, Mississippi is the cheapest. And I say that because Missouri is right below Mississippi. That's 218,317. In the state of Texas where this show originates from, they claim that a four, family of four, needs $204,922 to live comfortably. Just let me say, I am not comfortable. So, good luck to all the workers who are demanding their game rooms because you're going to have to take a job to live comfortably. that's for sure.

We don't want families. Yeah, you do. Yeah, you do. You're going to end up wanting families. And guess what? Families cost money. Whether you plan on them or not, they cost money. And so you better learn where you got to live.

And if you are living in a state that is costing a whole bunch of money to live comfortably, you may want to look at another state where it's a lot cheaper to go ahead and survive with a family of four. and you may need the help of a real estate agent when you want to move. And that's where real estate agents I trust comes in. Whether you're, you know, look, if you're moving city to city, fine. You still need their help. If you're moving state to state like you want to move to a cheap state where it's cheaper to live comfortably with a four-person family, yeah, that's when you need to get a hold of

Conditions apply. You know, thinking about the demands of people looking for work and they don't want to even think about working there if you can't have a game room or pet friendly or being able to take time off for growth, personal growth, a personal time sabbatical. And it got me thinking about the story that I did on my chewing segment on Pat Gray Unleashed this past Wednesday. If you're listening live today is the 26th of June. So that would have been yesterday on Pat Gray Unleashed Wednesday, the 25th. I told the story about the AI company out of San Francisco that has a big ad campaign, Stop hiring humans. And yeah, I know they claim that, hey, we're just doing it to get viral.

It's all. We just want to have a viral story because, you know, we just want people to know we're out here. Okay. All right. So, I mean, they put up, they put up ads in New York, cost them about 50,000. They did one in Times Square. They do. They have some on the bus stop sides.

If you walk the streets of New York, the bus stops have sides that, you know, you can advertise on. And they had a big roadside billboard as well. Stop hiring humans. And so, okay, that's what's going to happen. You're just walking into that line. Be more productive and upskill with AI, apparently. didn't work, but they like the idea of, hey, stop hiring humans. That's right.

They are AI workers. Won't complain about work-life balance and they won't come into work hungover. Okay. Yeah, that's what's coming down the pike. Look, remember the movie I talked about? Extinction. I think it was, yeah, extinction, that's the title of it. It's on Netflix now.

It was shot in 2018 now. And it never did hit the theaters because everybody, Everybody ripped it and thought it was terrible, but I did not think it was that bad. And it is a movie about man versus machine and machine versus man. And we are getting that way. So I know the resistance is ready to fight the rise of the machines. And the rise of the machines are not in full place right now, but it is coming because of people who want game rooms at work. And your workers will just, they don't have to provide snacks.

for those AI robots, do they? I saw a story today. We did a story yesterday, how Tinder is expanding, right? And so today I see a story about Bumble, another dating app, that's looking to lay off about 30% of its workforce.

I bet you 30% of people working for Bumble or more are the Gen Zers who want game rooms at work. They're getting ready to cut 30% of the workforce. For them, that's about 240 employees. I don't wish any of them ill will, and I wish they still had a job, but the dating app is like,

we need to return to growth, and the shares are down, and we're going to go ahead and cut our workforce. So keep asking for those game rooms. You know, another company that is reportedly way down is Prime, the sports drink, that was co-founded by Logan Paul. Yeah, he and, what's his name?

KSI founded the Prime Drink. And apparently, according to the first, this story, UK revenue, because KSI is from the UK, the UK revenue down 70% and US sales are down 40%. Wow, that's amazing because that was a monster and they were everywhere. So maybe that's just it. Maybe they were just, they're just everywhere and it's leveling off now to where it, suppose, that's where it will be to survive. Not real sure. But according to this, their sales are way down. So they need to maybe get into

another business deal so they can promote those prime drinks. Because every time all their boxing matches were all sponsored by Prime and you see them on all kinds of sporting events. Maybe they need to up their game a little bit. We need to get people drinking Prime. I know I see bottles of that around my house from time to time. So we have Prime drinkers here. I'm willing to help Logan out and KSI out. I know they're

a little low on social media numbers. at jeffy jfr on x just below what ksi and logan paul have you know just on x alone logan has a 6.8 million followers and his cover shot is with the bottle of prime so that's just i mean at jeffy jf r is sneaking up on him and then there's ks i on x alone has 8.8 million followers He does not, oh, he does have the, he does say in his bio, founder of Prime Hydrate, but he is, there's no picture of him with a bottle of Prime. Anyway, they're just at Jeffrey JFR on X's sneaking up on Logan Paul and KSI as far as followers. And you could be one.

Very simple. At Jeffy JFR on X. You can follow me on Facebook and Instagram, Jeff Fisher Radio. You can email the show anytime chewing the fat at the blaze.com. Chewing the fat at the blaze.com. Theblaze.com. You can submit your possible jokes of the day. You can say, hey, I want to be a contestant on what's the lie.

And you can order a cameo at any time at Jeffey JFR on the Cameo app. That is not free, but it is worth every doggone nickel at Jeffey JFR. on the Cameo app.

All right, let's go to the break room. I need something cold to drink desperately. What did I do with that prime drink? I guess I need to thank Hulu. I sat yesterday I was mad at him, so I badmouthed them in my home. I didn't badmouth them in public. But I got most of my work done in the afternoon.

I sat down to watch the bear, Season 4 was supposed to be dropped on Hulu yesterday. And I figured they would drop one or two episodes and I'd be able to catch them. And I sat down and, oh, they were going to drop at 7 p.m. Oh, my gosh. So I was angry that I couldn't believe I had to wait until 7 p.m. So then I sat down, I don't know, at 7.30 or something like that. I was, I got time.

I'll watch, you know, the first episode of the Bear season four. they dropped all the episodes thank you hulu man bless you for that so there's 10 episodes of the new season i think that's how many were there and uh they're all there i got done with one and it went right into the second one

and i'm like oh well they must have dropped the first two and then the second one got done and it rolled right into the third one and i was like okay what is happening and so that's when i paused and said what is going on and uh did they make a mistake on my feed And they all, no, they're all available. So I made it through four last night.

And I don't know. I love that stupid show. I don't know how it's a comedy. But, you know, I mean, there's some funny stuff that happens in the show. It's a dromedy. But I really do enjoy the characters in the show. So the Bear Season 4 is up and ready to be watched on Hulu. And I'll break down more of the show as I get into it.

as I finish it sometime in the near future because Gary Genetti, I saw him make a cameo appearance in the episode, one of the episodes that I watched. Jamie Lee Curtis is back, of course, as mom. I mean, I like the show. So the bear is up on Hulu. Then I saw where Mobland has been officially renewed

for season two on Paramount Plus. That first season of Mobland was awesome. So much fun. I'm not real crazy about how they ended it. But they ended it with making you think that, you know, it was, they could have left it like that, I guess. But I really enjoyed the first, the first season. It's Guy Ritchie with Mobland. And the characters in Mobland are awesome.

Tom Hardy, Pierce Bronson, Helen Marin. Just some great shows. So, season two. You know, when is that going to start? I don't know. Sure. Go ahead and make season two. When are you guys going to start filming?

Well, we've got to work out the scheduling, and we got to do this. So who knows, we may get it in, you know, 10 years or a year. I don't know. And everyone is all happy talking about California, locking down some $750 million annual expansion to the film tax credit program. They're doubling more than the current $330 million cap

because they want to keep Hollywood happy and filming in California. Good luck with that. But people are already grabbing money from it. According to this, I don't know, five studio films, including Sony, got a bunch of money. Netflix took some money. 43 independent films took some money. Half the productions will shoot outside L.A. County.

That's interesting that they're still half are shooting in L.A. County. And so Texas also said, hey, we're doing that too. we're committing to film and TV so we're going to have 150 million in film incentives annually through 2035. That's not California money, but it is pretty good that then they want

people to film in Texas. They need to up that game a little bit. I'm a little surprised that they didn't give more money to that, but whatever. And they want people to do they want to, you'll get bonus credits from the state of Texas if you have family values

and content that you know, makes the Texas, make the state of Texas look good. Oh, okay. All right. So chewing the fat is in the middle of putting a film together. And I think I need, what, two, three, four million

from the pile just to finish up getting this ball rolling. It's going to be shot entirely by my Samsung S-23 phone. I'm sorry, my Samsung S-23 Ultra. We'll be filming that here in the state of Texas.

A couple other shows I was reading about, kind of reality shows. Johnny Knoxville, who I was just thinking about the other day. I hadn't heard from him quite some time. Well, he's busy because he's now going to host a reboot of Fear Factor, the next chapter on Fox.

And Alan Ritchin is going to be, he teamed up with Bunnam Murray for Predator versus Prey, which is a survival, competition series pitting reality TV stars against each other. So those are some interesting reality shows coming to a TV near you soon. You know, and speaking of TV, I see where ESPN bought a minority stake in the premier lacrosse league, which I, okay, and it renews its media agreement with the new league for another five years.

So, I mean, I get it. Lacrosse is a, I guess, a growing sport. But we, I mean, if it's going to be on ESPN, does that mean we're going to watch it? I don't think so. Sure, it's there to fill some time. And I'm happy to look at some highlights during your sports shows. But to sit down and just watch a game and become a fan, I guess. I guess good luck.

I mean, it's not the NFL. Certainly isn't. college football, but it is a sport, and it's a booming sport, and now that they've bought into it, I guess we'll have to watch it, or not. It's hockey season, and you can get anything you need delivered with Uber Eats. Well, almost, almost anything. So, no, you can't get a nice rank on Uber Eats.

See app for details. Who died today? Who died today? Well, let's begin with Lynn Hamilton. Lynn Hamilton, veteran actress, oh, I'm sorry, actor, and dignified foil. You remember her on Sanford and Sun. she has died at the age of 95. She was on Sanford and Son.

She was on the Waltons. She appeared in 132 episodes of Generations, which was the first black daytime drama. She, you know, grandkids and loved ones all around. Really incredible. She was born in Yazoo City, Mississippi in 1930, and then was raised in Chicago and met her. husband and moved to California.

She said Red Fox picked her to be his, well, it was then her first a girlfriend and then his fiancee, because she looked so dignified. And he needed someone dignified to, you know, be opposite of him. So, and she was, you know, just a great character and a great actress. So a rest in peace to Lynn Walton, dead at the age of 95.

Then we have a couple of sports, quasi stars. Rich Stevens, former Raiders offensive linemen, dead at the age of 59. Apparently, he played in the NFL in the mid-90s, and he started for the Raiders, and then he played in the Sacramento surge of the World League of American Football. That was the Developmental League, played across the U.S. and Canada. had some teams in Europe too at the time.

And then he played in the CFL. So Rich Stevens, dead at the age of 59. Does not say what the cause of death was. Then we have Chandler Jones. Chandler Jones dead at the age of 33. I mean, I remember Chandler when he came to Tampa. In college, he was San Jose State's all-time leader in catches and receiving.

He was great. in college. And he came to Tampa. He played in the NFL for a couple of years. And then I think he went into the CFL for a while. He never did quite have what it took for the NFL. That happens to a lot of players. Believe me, I mean, the NFL is the cream of the crop.

But he passed away because of a car crash. Car crashed in California on Marina Freeway, and he was pronounced dead at the scene. No explanation of who was at fault, how it happened. but he died in a car crash over this past weekend. Chandler Jones, dead at the age of 33. Then we have My Kayla Raines. My Kayla Raines dead at the age of 29.

Apparently she committed suicide. Very sad. And she committed suicide according to her husband because of online harassment. Oh, okay. So it couldn't have been that she was, that talks about how she had all. these mental issues and borderline personality disorder and other mental issues happening throughout her life. And she tried different drugs and had mood swings and did risky behaviors. And it couldn't

have been any of that. It was because of the online bullying that, uh, that, uh, that, uh, that, uh, that, uh, that, uh, Michaela killed herself. Okay. All right. Sure. You got it. That's, that's why. I mean, it's very sad either way. No one should commit suicide. if you're struggling with any kind of mental health issues and thinking about suicide, get help. 988 or just go to 988 lifeline.org. It's the lifeline. It's the suicide and crisis lifeline.

They will help. They will help you through it. No one. Life isn't better on the planet without you on it, period. I know. I know it's easy to think that. Believe me. I know it's easy to think that that life will be better for others.

if you're not on it but it is not true and it's you know get help if you if you can and it's there it's available for you uh you can text the nine eight uh you can call nine eight eight or you can uh go to nine eight lifeline dot org anyway uh you remember as she was the you know an internet kind of sensation she started a non-profit save a fox over the years and she's rescued more than 150 Foxes and I'm sure you've seen her videos, which was awesome. And so it was online bullying though. So rest in peace to Michaela Raines dead at the age of 29. You know, speaking of suicide, I was just reading the other day, in the first six months of 2025,

we've already recorded, this is globally now, we've already recorded 440,000 suicides across the globe or around the globe, depending on whether you believe it's flatter, not. Ha! And the most alarming part is that, according to this, 75 to 80% of those are men. Despite the growing awareness around mental health, many men still suffer in silence due to the stigma, fear, and vulnerability, or lack of safe support. So, I mean, Michaela Raines was a female, so Michaela's outside of that window. But according to this story, the data paints a tragic picture of the hidden crisis, many men are facing behind closed doors. From financial stress to suppress the emotional trauma, the burden becomes too much for some to carry. And it's not just the

numbers. It's lives, sons, brothers, fathers, and friends. Yeah, it affects everyone. And you do think that the world will be a better place if you're not in it. And it just isn't true. So we need to stop telling men to man up. I don't know about that. But okay, if you say so, if you say so, I won't argue with you at this time. Stop telling them to man up and start telling them that they're allowed to feel, break down and ask for help because being strong includes being human.

Okay. I mean, that's just an incredible number. 444,000 suicides around the globe already this year. Wow. It's really sad. It's really sad. And that's very sad that people honestly believe that the world will be better without them in it.

And, you know, it just isn't true. And once again, a story of a little girl gone missing that was blamed on a white person from a black person happens to be a false. And it just drives me insane. This is what makes us doubt all these stories. This lady, her name is Darian Randall or Dararian Randall, D-A-R-R-I-A-N. She claimed that a kidnapper stole her child. She said that she was driving along the 500 block in Newark around 7 p.m. When her daughter became upset, so she pulled over and tried to comfort her.

And then she was there on the side of the road for about a half an hour. And then a white man approached and held her at gunpoint before kidnapping her daughter. And she described the man as a 40-year-old bald with peach fuzz on his head and wearing a black hoodie gray basketball shorts. And she claimed the man was in a vehicle driven by a blonde. white woman. Oh, okay. They even issued an amber alert for this poor little girl. And then they did some investigating, thankfully, and realized that, guess what, it's not true. Yeah, we're going to go ahead and cancel that amber alert. And we're going to talk to the mom here because we did a little investigating.

And we went to the apartment and we looked at video cameras from outside the house and we we saw the mom leaving, but there was no child leaving with her. And then we talked to the boyfriend who was there and said, nah, she left with her. And so then, after smelling the apartment of cleaning products, I guess they smelled bleach in the apartment, they went ahead and searched the boyfriend's car, and there was, I guess, some kind of stain consistent with blood.

on a blanket and he was like, I got that from somebody, some stranger in a park last year. Uh-huh. And so then the mother said that, you know what? Yeah, I struck my little baby girl. And yeah, I hit her with a belt about 15 to 20 times.

And then it was about her body during the daytime. And the child fell to the ground and wasn't moving and was unresponsive. And so I picked the child. up and I realized that she was no longer breathing. And so then they took her in a vacant lot out behind this apartment building. And they buried her. First of all, the entire thing is incredibly sad and terrible for this little girl.

But the mom, the reason we don't believe many of these stories in the news when they talk about kidnappings and murders and shootings and all this is because of stories like this. We got an Amber alert. We got parents crying that they were kidnapped by a white person. And yet, no, no, the child was not kidnapped. You murdered her and made up a story to try to cover your crime. Just incredible. And in the words of Ben Matlock, who, you know, who's a great defense attorney,

murder is a messy business. This episode is brought to you. to you by Peloton. A new era of fitness is here.

So at the time of this recording, Diddy has not walked yet, which I find surprising.

Honestly, I thought that the judge would rule on that Rule 29 today and just send him walking. But according to all reports right now, they're in the courtroom. And I guess closing arguments are supposed to begin today. And they're supposed to take for a day each for the prosecution and the defense. So they're looking at giving it to the jury. next week on Monday, Monday or Tuesday, so we'll see how long that takes.

They may give it to them over the weekend, although I doubt it because the judge is like new. It's 4 o'clock in the afternoon. I got to go home. It's Friday. I need to play squash with the other judges at the club. And so it doesn't look like there's no report of the judge ruling on the Rule 29.

I don't know if the judge can rule on that any time, probably so probably after the closing arguments the judge could say hey you know what you haven't made your case have a nice day but I thought that ruling

would come today and maybe it will maybe they're busy arguing it right now and we'll find out if Diddy walks today or not but I felt I felt confident as a pretend defense attorney

that that Diddy would walk today but Look, that's what you're paying me for, right? Right. If you've got a couple of bucks laying around, today might be the day to go ahead and put your bids in for, there's 15,000 blocks of federal waters across the entire Gulf of America. The administration, that would be the Donald J. Trump administration,

announced the Gulf of America oil and gas lease sale. It's going to span roughly. 80 million acres. That's bigger than countries. That's bigger than a lot of countries. So that's a lot of area in the Gulf of America. So you go ahead and bid on blocks there in the Gulf of America. And if you win, you get a reduced royalty rate.

And that, according to the administration, will drive greater industry interest in participating in the sale. And so drill baby drill in the Gulf of America. So you've got the money. Go ahead and put it up now because you can go ahead and get one of those 15,000 blocks to build your oil rig in the Gulf of America. Look, the Gulf already produces like 1.8 million barrels of oil a day.

That's 13% of the nation's total production. But according to all reports, it contains 48 billion barrels. of recoverable oil. And you better hope that one of your 15,000 blocks that you buy has an area that actually lets you get to recoverable oil. And all you have to do is get, you know, bid on the block and then build an oil rig.

Duh, drill down and get the oil out. It's not that difficult. And I'm a little disappointed that I did not get an invitation to the Bezos wedding. That started, we talked about it yesterday. It started today, full force. It's been there At least a three-day celebration

And some of the guests that are there They're already there They're all staying at the same hotel People are pissed That Bezos has taken over the whole city of Venice So what? Okay, he's got the money, he can do it They claim that this wedding is going to cost

At least $76 million. That's pretty good. That's a pretty good wedding. Would you say? Yes, I would say that that would be. I guess Oprah may be there. Jagger, DeCaprio. It says in this story, Katie Perry, but she's not coming.

We know that. She's in Australia. That's why Orlando Bloom is there by himself. And they're making a big deal out of him. He's single. Yeah, he's there because Katie is in Australia. Okay. Apparently Ivanka Trump is going to show.

I don't know that to be true. Although I did see a picture of DeJere, showing up in one of the ships or one of the boats there in Venice so definitely could the vodka could be there so I've been still disappointed that Lauren and or Jeff did not invite me to the wedding I'm hurt I really have I'm I'm hurt and it's they even they didn't even want gifts this is another thing that I thought this is why I would be there they said we don't want you to provide gifts we're going to we're going to be donating to the same city and the guest's honor.

Okay, that's great. I love that. And the people protesting are saying that we're, we've demonstrating against wealth inequality. Yeah, okay. Wealth inequality over tourism. Oh, okay. No space for Bezos.

Yeah, okay, but you do have the space. And there'll be plenty of money to everyone in the city because of Jeff Bezos. so once you calm down okay and all you people are claiming i want bezos to pay more taxes uh he doesn't pay taxes in italy okay and let me look maybe he does because he you know maybe that's where he docks his yacht i don't know but as far as i know he's an american citizen and he pays taxes here in the united states so any more taxes or less taxes that he pays has nothing to do with you italy just i can't sometimes i just can't but i'm And I know I can't go to the wedding because I wasn't invited, which is very hurtful.

All right, let's get out of here. I'll give you the joke of the day. This was, this was kind of mean, too, but, you know, I'm going to go with it. It was sent to me from Pat.
