Blaze Radio Network And now, chewing the fat with Jeff Fisher. So if you were wondering, hey, is that ship stuck? Yeah, if you were, you know, I don't know, flying over the apple yard in greased Greenland National Park, about 870 miles northeast of Greenland's capital, I have to tell you that. And you looked down and you saw a 341 foot ship immobilized in mud.

and silt. You just realize, hey, that thing is really stuck, huh? Yeah, it's really stuck. It was stuck there for several days. And they finally got it loose. They said no one was injured, and there are no reports of anyone in danger. They realized, hey, the nearest Danish Navy vessels are days away. And it looks like there's going to be some bad weather.

So you guys sinking or anything? Are you good? Oh, no, we're fine. Oh, okay. Well, we'll send some military to check on you. And they did. And they said, hey, we spoke to people on board. They seemed fine.

They were in good condition. And the Aurora expeditions said that, hey, passengers and crew aboard the ocean explorer are safe and well. It's all good. Those on board were in good spirits. They had been entertained by lectures and stories of expeditions from the the crew. Man, after about 24 hours of that, how could you not want two or three more days of it? Well, that's what you got. So they finally brought in another ship and used that to pull and use the

power of its own ship, the ocean explorer, to get it out and get it unstuck. So everybody's safe. The ship is fine, although they're going to take it into port and get it, you know, check out. There were 206 passengers and crew members on the ship. Now, during this time that it was sucked, they realized, hey, you know, we've got some people on board that have COVID-19. Whoa, whoa, whoa, war, alarm, alarm. And we had, I mean, once the alarm, right. I mean, the alarms are going off. People are coughing. It's just, it was a nightmare. Actually, they said they were fine. Some people on the ship wore some masks and I guess the other people just stayed in their cabins when they had come down with COVID-19. So it's all good. Amazing. What a different world

we live in now. There's no way they would allow that ship to come on to shore at the dock back in the day with two people with COVID-19 and 206 other passengers that have been stuck out there for three or four days? Yeah, you're going to be stuck out there for a lot longer, okay? Remember we had cruise ships locked in? They weren't letting people off. That's incredible.

But if anything, man, it makes you want to take a cruise. I'll tell you that. Hey, I know we can go around Greenland and see how pretty Greenland is in a cruise ship. How come we're not moving, honey? Ah, we're stuck. So, it'll take

a few days to get some people here to help us. But hey, maybe one of the workers can tell us a story about what happened to them 20 years ago on a ship. Boy, now we're talking fun. Welcome. I mean, a couple of stories may have been interesting. I get that. But again, after a day, just give me a drink. How about you?

Shut up. Okay. Welcome. And don't keep COVID-19 away from me. All right. They stay. Thank you. Thank you.

I don't want none of that. Welcome to chewing the fact. You know what? I still can't get over this. Okay, so I did Pat Gray on leash today. I usually do it on Wednesday and Friday. And today was, I know today was Thursday. Those of you listening live, today is the 14th of September, 2023.

I came in because we had our own aliens to unveil on the show today. Mexico can't, you know, can't be the only country, okay? Sorry about it, but we had to unveil our own. And we know that the United States government has said that they were going to release some more, I don't know, a new UFO report or something today that we'll have. So maybe we'll see if it's worth anything tomorrow. But during the overtime segment on Pack around these, which is on Blaze TV, go to blazTV.com slash Jeffie, use the press.

So it's going to be released November 14th. It's called the Disney Legacy animated film. collection. Pre-orders start this coming Monday through and you can get them at walmart.com and it's only going to cost you $1,500, okay? And oh yeah, there's no doubt, but you get, you know, you get a lot of things with it. No, really. You get 118 discs in all, 100 for each individual film, 18 additional discs with bonus content for Pixar films. And each volume folds out into a storybook style presentation with pages showing poster art for the movies, their release years, and a character quote from each. The collection also comes with digital codes for each movie. And also you're

going to get a lithograph poster of Disney's upcoming Wish. And that's going to be a numbered certificate of authenticity. So it's got to be real. And And a fancy crystal Mickey Mouse ears cap, which actually looks kind of cool. And it's only for 1,500 bucks. I mean, hello. So I was looking at the list of the 100 movies. And it starts out with Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs and, you know, Pinocchio, Fantasia, Dumbo, Bambi. And then it goes on and you start looking at it.

There's a hundred of them. So I was looking at what movies aren't on here. So they have all the toy stories. They have the rescuers and the rescues, you know, rescuers down under. I mean, who doesn't remember seeing the naked lady and the rescues down under? Hello. I believe I actually do have the VHS tape of that, but I can't tell you that I actually have a working VHS machine in the house. But I know that we have the VHS tape.

So we've got to have a machine. There's got to be at least one or two machines left. I don't even know if the VHS tapes are worth it anymore. They've been moved so many times and left in the garage. they're probably just kindling now for the fireplace. But anyway, I still have it, so I'll sell it to you for a decent price. But they have the Lion King, the original Lion King from 1994 on this list. That's the only Lion King.

So there isn't Lion King 2, and there isn't my favorite Lion King 1.5. And we got into this argument on overtime that Lion King 1.5 sucks. No, it doesn't. Lion King 1.5 is freaking hilarious. And it's really good. And I won't hear of it anymore. People bad-mouting Lion King 1.5. It's very frustrated.

I may have to do a YouTube short on this too. Chewing the Fad with Jeff Fisher. I won't hear of this Lion King 1 and a half. Be smirched by people. I can't have it. But that has tangled on there. I love Tangled. One of my favorite Disney movies, really.

is tangled. Although, you know, there's some others on here that are pretty good. Meet the Robertsons, you know, Ratatouille, Wally. Yeah, Up was really good. I got it. Brave. I enjoyed it. Monsters University is on here. Monsters Inc. Awesome. Monsters University, uh, one and a half should be replacing that. All right, Lion King one and a half should have been in place of at least Monsters University. Inside Out, really good. And they have the both Incredibles.

Ralph breaks the internet. I said all of the toy stories. Soul. And of course, the 100th movie is Elemental. Their last one, which I have not seen.

I'm told, I don't know. But I'll end up seeing it. And also, you know, 96 from 2021 is Enconto. We don't talk about Bruno. Oh my God.

I heard that a thousand times from my wife. wife's grandchildren. And I know what you're wondering. All right. I know you're going to be, you're angry with me that one and a half, Lion King one and a half is not on the list.

Okay. And I may have to watch that, maybe this weekend or something, you know, between football games. Because I haven't seen it in quite some time. But Song of the South is not on this list. Wow. I thought we were trying to break through the,

break through the mold, but no. So it goes back to, to, I mean, Song of the South was like the first one, right? I mean, one of the first ones. So it goes back to 37, starts off with Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs. Pinocchio, Fantasia, Dumbo, Bambi.

Saludos amigos. I don't know that I've ever seen that from 1943. The three Calabaros from 1945. Make Mine Music from 1946. Fun and Fancy Free from 1947. Melody Time from 1948, The Adventures of Iqabad and Mr. Toad from 1949. And then you get into 1950 with Cinderella and Alice in Wonderland,

Peter Pan, Lady in the Tram, Sleeping Beauty. Those are all the 50s. Yeah, no song of the South. We're done. All right, so let's move on to real stories, shall we? A Bridgeport High School coach. Bridgeport, Texas, by the way. I've gone through Bridgeport many times.

beautiful. I wouldn't mind living there actually. It's about, I don't know, 80 miles north, west of Dallas, Texas, Fort Worth, where I live. Anyway, their high school soccer coach has resigned and the resignation has been accepted by the BISD Board of Trustees. The reason for his resignation. Okay, so he's accused of spending $5,455.81. On a Bridgeport ISD credit card at the Men's Club of Houston. So apparently, he was on, it was an event. They went to some coaching clinic down in Houston.

And oh, yeah, we're at a coaching clinic. We got the company credit card. And we're hanging out at the old men's club. So, hey, this isn't going to show up as a strip club on my credit card report, is that this is a company card. Oh, no, sir. We bill you as Texas Richmond Corporation. All right then. Let's have another bottle of champagne.

and back that on up here. Okay. That is awesome. I mean, let's having a good night. You're dropping $5,455.85. And $81. You're having a good night. They believe me, his table was surrounded.

I promise you that. So he, now the good thing is, okay, so why did he resign? I don't know. He paid it back. Now, it looks like he paid it back, that he had paid the district back. The police department are like,

we're not going to do any criminal charges. I mean, nothing really to investigate. He paid it back. So, I mean, he lost his job, obviously. And I say obviously, but okay. I mean, the guy paid you back. He's a male. I don't know how the wife or family feels about him dropping over five grand

at the old strip club in Houston. But, you know, it happens. It happens. Now, he took the soccer team to the playoffs, five of six seasons as a coach. So he's a good coach. I will say he also faced a little trouble in the past, although I don't know that that was him. It was a special education teacher as well.

That's why he was a soccer coach. And just a soccer joke. Stop it. I love soccer, you know that I do. But apparently there was some hazing incidents that went on. And who knew? I mean, you're being hazed at the Bridgeport, Texas soccer team? Okay.

All right. Now the Bridge Six Bridgeport Boys soccer players. players were arrested for they did a two month. It took two months for a hazing investigation in Bridgeport. Come on now. They're just milking the system. The players, five adults and one juvenile were charged with personal hazing. And you don't want none of that.

You do not want none of that. That's a Class B misdemeanor. We live in such. such weird times, man. This is incredible soccer team in Bridgeport, Texas. Hazing. Now we're getting charged with personal hazing. It doesn't say what actually happened during these.

Oh, and it does, actually. These incidents involved underclassmen, some is young. It's 14 years old being restrained or held down while multiple subjects removed articles of the victim's clothing, including their pants and, underwear, the victim reported that while in an unclothed state, they were filmed and made to repeat phrases such as I'm your bitch.

No, no, no, no. These are kids. What are we talking about? No, we're not at the strip club anymore. All right, let's go to the break room. I need something cold to drink desperately. Back that thing on it. out here.

So how are things going in Vegas at the MGM? They said they have their power back up. Do they have their computer system back up? Do they have everything? I mean, they were hacked. I got an email, chewing the fat at the blaze.com, telling me someone who is on the inside, saying that the entire MGM infrastructure is down,

has been since Sunday afternoon. We talked about them, you know, getting hacked and losing all the emails, all the machines, the electronic door card keys weren't working. And according to this, everything that's been reported about the infrastructure is true. So is it back up? Are we good?

Do they pay the ransom? I don't know. I hope everything is working out at the MGM. And if you've been locked out, you've been locked out of your room since Sunday afternoon. Sorry about it. Just sit in the hallway and shut your face. Okay, and we'll get to you in a second.

Awesome. And then, of course, for the extra five bucks, you can get the Italian sausage and the crispy chicken, fritter, the meatballs. So good news. Anyway, for you people that are excited about

Olive Garden. And who isn't? Who isn't? You know, speaking of restaurants, though, I see where McDonald's is getting rid of one of its biggest perks. They're eliminating the self-serve soda machines. What? That's their staple.

Yeah. But they're doing it by 2032. So we've got a few years, and I'm guessing it's going to be, you know, a gradual cutback. So you're going to find, as you progress over the next few years, more and more of the McDonald's restaurants are not going to have the self-served soda machines. Very disappointing. So, I mean, who doesn't like to refill their own drinks? a thousand times at McDonald's. That could be why they're getting rid of them. Anyway, they're saying that their business is now

drive-through delivery services. Fewer people are eating in its dining rooms. Interesting. Maybe it's because we see fights going on on the internet daily at what appears to be a McDonald's. Most of them are just restaurants. So I guess McDonald's is looking at restaurant designs, now with smaller or no dining rooms,

high-tech drive-thrus to reflect that new reality. Digital sales are made through the app and through their partners with Uber make up 40% of their total sales. That's a lot. You can quote me on that. That's a lot. So the chain has also recently teased another major change,

Cosmix. C-O-S-M-C, apostrophe as a new small format location that includes a reduced dining area. So ditching the dining rooms was off limits in the past, but not any longer. And, you know, they're blaming the pandemic. I mean, so much, they used to want kids' birthday parties there. Now, get your kids out of it. We don't want your nasty kids anywhere near our restaurant. Well, in the drive-thru.

And, you know, maybe you order an Uber and help. them come to the house but we don't want them in the restaurants now they stay here in the story that chippole taco bell and starbucks are looking at reinventing their designs as well okay i mean we've seen some of the taco bell redesigns but uh i've had oh my gosh yes can we get a comment from mcdowell's restaurant owner in the corner of 8507 Queens Boulevard in Elm's Hurst, Queens. I'm a fan. Are they going to pick up all those drinking fountains and put them in their locations?

Are they also going to, you know, downsize and grade? I'm highly upset that you have not gotten the comment of the owner of McDowell's restaurant in the corner of 8507 Queens Boulevard. is one of the best movies of all time. Exactly. One of the funniest movies of all time. I'll repeat myself again. Have you gotten in a comment?

I have not got it to comment. I have not got it from Mr. McDowell. I have not. They are McDowell's. Yes. McDonald's thinks that they're, you know, copying. Copy. But he's not.

Completely different. He has completely different. I believe I have the menu, the McDonald's menu, McDonnell's menu. Okay. Right. Sexual Chocolate Chocolate Shake, which is a chocolate ice cream.

No, that was not on the menu. Can, can. The sexual chocolate shake was not on the menu. Can you let me talk? Sexual chocolate shake. I forget who show this is. Chocolate ice cream with a slice of chocolate layer cake on top. Or the Big Mac.

Like the Big Mac. But. It's not the Big Mac, though. Only with that sesame season stuff into a huggy. Not the Big Mac. Don't be, don't be thinking it's the Big Mac. It's not the big, it's not a bit. And the Zamunda fries, black and chicken, cheddar, mozzarella,

that might have been in the new one. That actually may have been on the menu. Habnerioli. That actually may have been on the menu at the McDonald's in, what's the country again? You just said it. Oh, yes, I did. Zamunda.

Zamunda, yeah. In Zamunda, in the coming to America too. Yes. That actually may have been on the menu at the. McDonald's there. McDowels, not McDonald's. That's what I said.

And they have McDowell's menu. They have chicken chunks, not nuggets. Right. I think that would say it. Yeah, that's it.

Yeah, I bet you that was in, and I have to go back and watch now. Which about the picture of this sexual chocolate cake shake at McDonald's. Oof.

It's a heart attack. Really? It's a club. I want, want to show it to the camera. I'm a fan. Hold it up to the camera. Let us see. Let us see. Make sure you click the link under the description. There's a link, but you have to watch it live.

Yeah. Right now. For those of you watching it live, look at that. There's a link underneath the podcast. It says click here to watch the shake. And if you missed it, oh, there you go, you missed it. I mean, it's almost as good as, did you see the, you sent it to me. I did.

The guy that had the drink from Dunkin' Donuts. Duncan. America runs on Duncan, right? America does run on Dunkin. I mean, I see where Ice Spice, the rap star is now going to be a spokesman. You know, she's kind of been a spokesman for munchkins, the puffy munchkin. If America runs on Duncan and so does Americans got talent, they also run on Duncan. Okay.

Why don't we hear that more often? Like, that's a big marketing. That is a big marketing blitz. Because if I would tell you, close your eyes, think of a donut, Krispy Kree. I don't think of Dunkin' Donuts. Get out. What are you talking about?

You don't think of Dunkin' Donuts? Okay, so here's a guy. His TikTok handle is Flav City. And he's going to tell you about this Dunkin' Donut drink that appears to have a little bit of sugar in it. I know it's a surprise. My friends, this is a pumpkin. swirl frozen coffee. A pumpkin swirl.

Who thought it was a good idea to put this on the menu? Because this drink has 185 grams of sugar in here. How much is it? It's this much. It's 46 teaspoons of sugar. To give you another perspective, the amount of sugar in there is equal to 14 glazed donuts. Plus, okay, pose it for just a second.

Okay, so, what did it have? How many how many teaspoons? You think or you know? Play it back is now you piss me off. You're supposed to be listening. I'm not supposed to be listening. 46 teaspoons.

46 teaspoons. That's not what you said. 118. 46 teaspoons. Why not tablespoons? Okay, whatever. So how many teaspoons are in a tablespoon? It's a math project today.

No, you don't have to answer that. I'm just messing with you. Everybody knows it's... So, anyway, go ahead with this because... I mean, 100... It's got 46 teaspoons of sugar. I mean, he shows it in the cup, and it looks like my wife making coffee.

It's really what it is. No wonder my wife loves this, actually. 15.3. That's what I said. Everybody knows the answer. Go ahead. All right, go out there. To give you another perspective,

the amount of sugar in there is equal to... 14 glazed donuts. A 14 glazed donuts. A 14 glazed donuts. Okay, stop. There's no pumpkin in here. Artificial. Oh, my gosh.

Okay, so 14 glazed donuts. Now, who eats, first of all? I was thinking when I first see of making this case, I was like, well, I would eat 14 glaze donuts. I mean, I would do that. It doesn't seem that bad. And if I could get, you know, half a dozen glazed donuts and the pumpkin swirl,

I mean, now you're talking a little bit of sugar, my friend. Now maybe you've got me where there's a problem. All right, you can back that up a little bit and let them go on to tell you about how there's no actual real pumpkin in there. There's no pumpkin in here. It's artificial flavors. There's 12 mentions of sugar and high fructose corn syrup in here. There's 930 calories and 194 carbs. Two thirds of us are already.

Type 2 diabetic or pre-diabatic. If America runs on this, we're f***. No, we're not. We're buzzed. And we're happy about it. That's what makes America great right there. America runs on sugar. That's an unsponsored spot right there.

With Amex Platinum, $400 in annual credits for travel and dining means you not only satisfy your travel bug, but your taste buds too. That's the powerful backing of Amex. Conditions apply. Okay, so those of you that follow me on Twitter at Jeffrey JFR. I'm sorry, X at Jeffrey JFR. Know that every day when I post a X, a tweet

about the new show, the daily chewing the fat, you know, new chewing the fat up to down, or, you know, new chewing the fat is up. And then I gave you the title of the show, links in bio, subscribe, enjoy, CTF podcast. And I always put a picture that represents something that we talked about in the show that day and then chewing the fat logo picture.

That's just what I do. If you follow me, you know, that's what I do. So yesterday, I knew that something was going to happen, but I just thought I'd take a shot anyway. I posted a picture of our girl from Virginia and on her chatterbate. You know, and I just posted a picture from the video that was actually posted on Twitter X.

And it's just a frozen screenshot from the video. You can't see anything. She's bent over. There's a picture of her and her nurse's thing covering up her rear end. It's there. So there's nothing bad about it. In fact, you probably see something like that in your home every day. Who does it?

Really? Who doesn't? So anyway, I look at it and it says, we put a warning on this tweet because it might have sensitive content. And I was like, no. I mean, I understand the thought process of them thinking that, you know, seeing that picture.

Okay. If the, you know, who saw the picture? The algorithm or Millie? Inform peddler, kids use that app. Why are you showing porn to kids? So it says underneath the victor. And by the way, by the way, there's more sex on this platform. Shame.

Porn peddler? What's next? You want porn for kids? Yes. Yes, that's what I want. That's what I want. Okay. So it tells me that.

And then it gives a link to appeal. the warning. I can appeal the warning. Oh, okay, well let's do that. What does it say? Oops, something went wrong, error. I can appeal the warrant. So I can't appeal it.

It's a ruse. It's a ruse. I just went ahead and put the warning on and it won't let you appeal because, oops, there's an error. Try again later. That's been that way since yesterday afternoon. So thank you. you. X.

Oh, and today's the day, right? Today is the day. The U.S. UAW is set to go on strike as of midnight tonight. So we'll see if they, you know,

if the 150,000, I don't even think it's that many anymore, but 150,000 auto workers and the three U.S. car makers work out a deal because they're talking about now that, well, it's a week long.

It's going to be a general strike. Oh, okay. Now they claim it's going to cost the industry more than $5 billion over the next 10 days. They're not selling cars anyway. If I'm one of the three automakers, I'm like, yeah, you know what? Go on strike.

Go ahead and shut down. Let's power down. We can't sell the cars on the lot. we got problems we've got we're begging begging people to buy our cars we're

we're paying I don't know if they paid for this but they got a huge huge segment on Fox morning show this morning demonstrating all these new cars I'm sure that had nothing to do

with trying to sell cars or anything it was just Fox being nice and let's take a look at some new cars yeah Let's just do that. Because nothing like that actually happens in real life where a company can't sell a product so they go on TV to try to sell it.

So we'll see what happens but be ready for the news that maybe it works. Maybe the threat of the UAW strike will work. It has in the past. The last one was a four-year deal. so we'll see if maybe a targeted

strikes will work across the industry I feel like it's not going to I feel like they're asking for an awful lot in today's world and you know I want everybody to get paid so you know good luck good luck

and you know we mentioned McDonald's partnering with Uber and they're claiming that that along with their app sales are 40% of their sales now I see where Lyft yesterday, you know, the ride hailing company. They whipped up a new feature to help match women and non-binary riders with drivers of the same gender and identities.

Oh. Lyft says women make up half of its riders, but only 23% of its drivers. The goal, according to Lyft, is to make women and non-binary drivers, more confident when driving and to give riders greater choice. Then we also have the Reserve now ride later. Uber Reserve. You can now book your Uber ride up to 90 days in advance. I mean, that's not that bad a thing.

That really is depending on how much, they cost. I will say the price of Uber has, what's the word I'm looking for? Skyrocketed. Yeah. I will say that to get a ride on an Uber short ride for my son, just because I'm familiar with him ordering Uber not long ago, from our house to his place of employment, was like a million dollars. And I was like, you don't even make a million Why are you getting charged a million dollars? It was a lot. It was more than it should have been.

I know it wasn't a million dollars, okay? I was just making a point. But it was way more expensive than what it should have been. I mean, hell, I'll give them a ride every day for that. You already do. Oh, okay, never mind. 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. Get a nice rank on Uber Eats. But iced tea, ice cream, or just plain old ice? Yes, we deliver those. Goaltenders, no. But chicken tenders, yes. Because those are groceries, and we deliver those too. Along with your favorite restaurant food, alcohol, and other everyday essentials.

Well, isn't it interesting that we're now getting stories about food recalls are pretty common for things like rocks, insects, and plastic. And for those of you that listen to this show, you know that is 100% true.

I try to tell you those recalls as soon as I see them. And we've had the Trader Joe's cookies, insects in the broccoli cheese soup, pieces of plastic in the banquet, frozen chicken strips. There's been some big recalls, some high-profile recalls that the product is content. contaminated with foreign objects. Yeah, no kidding. We don't like to bite down on stainless steel in our peanut butter or bone fragments in smoke sausage,

although I will say if you boil the smoke sausage and then fry it up after you boil it, don't even worry about those bone chips. You're fine. You don't even notice them. You need to put a little dip in a little ketchup. You're fine. So food safety experts and federal agencies use the terms extraneous or foreign

to describe metal fragments, rubber gaskets, bits of bugs. There's nothing like bits of bugs. See, that's why you don't have to think about it unless it's actually a big piece of metal or, you know, a big hunk of a hunk of rat or a hunk of roach. That's a, you know, there's a song there somewhere.

hunker-roach. But I'm just saying that in 2022, last year, more than 447, no, 47, 77, 47,000 pounds of food regulated by the USDA Food Safety and Inspection Service, triple the number of recalls to food contaminated with E. coli. Oh, that's great. The size of the recalls can reach into the millions. Yeah, no kidding. I mean, we've seen that.

So just be careful out there and keep an eye. Keep an eye out for those pieces of metal, bone fragments, chips, you know, rubber, things like that. Hey, look, plastic pieces from freight conveyor belts, wood shards from produce pallets, metal shavings, or wire from machinery. Well, they're supposed to not get in your food? No. No, you know what's going to happen. So it's just, just be careful. All right, just keep your eye out.

I mean, it's economically impractical to grow, harvest, or process raw products that are totally free of non-hazardous, naturally occurring unavoidable defects. Yeah, so get over it, okay? I'm glad to see we're writing about it, though. That makes me happy because I talk about this so much. It drives me insane. They talk about, then they go.

down a list of all these recalls that we've talked about here on the show that you know about because of the show thank you for listening to chewing the fat. Just know that there's never going to be zero risk for this happening and we're probably one of the better countries in the

world that face this problem but you know I just hope it's not you that's biting into a metal shard as you're spreading your peanut butter we don't want to want that. We don't want that. You can quote me on that. We don't want that. Then I see a story

that talks about something that I didn't even think about. And oh my gosh, I'm like, I'm guilty of this. And it's a little frightening. Okay. So researchers are now urging people to stop wearing unclean socks to bed after discovering that they often contain the same bacteria found in cockroaches and their fecal droppings. I can't. And I'm guilty of it almost every night. I mean, I like my feeties

warm, okay? You can quote me on that too. I like my feeties warm. And so I leave my socks on, but I'm going to have to change my socks now before I go to bed. So experts obtained by mattress next day.

So it's got to be right. They pull 1,017 adults. Well, this is from Britain, so maybe it's not as bad here as the United States. They're sleeping habits and discovered that 18% wear socks while sleeping. Okay, I mean, that makes sense.

I don't want your feet? He's warm. So 70% of those sock wearers. Okay, so 70% of the 18%. Don't bother changing into a clean pair before bed. Instead, they're staying in the same pair. Yeah, I mean, yeah. Now, I may have changed my socks, though.

Like today, give you a little of my sock history. But today, you know, I've got my, you know, socks on that I wore to work. And when I get home, I'll change out of these clothes and get into different ones. So they're not all-day socks that I'll be going to be. bed in. They're not going to be, you know, I might have to brave it and not change it. Because by the time you're at the bedtime, I just go to bed. Yeah, it's got it's time.

It's time to go night, night. I don't want to change. It's time to go night, night. So, uh, researchers swabbed the stinky socks worn by people between 7 and 11 p.m. And found that half of them contained, you know, the type of bacteria that causes infection. in humans? You know, the infections that and, you know, affect the airwaves

and the urinary track. Oh yeah, I don't forget about your lungs. Those things do. Yeah, yeah, yeah. So just no, oh my gosh. It can easily spread on tools that get contaminated and are not properly cleaned.

So some socks that they tested were even dirtier than uncleaned TV remotes. Wait, you're supposed to clean your TV remotes? Damn it! And they're all they're talking about, we have, our feet has 250,000 sweat glands in it,

being that the moisture is building up in our dirty socks, creating, you know, the fungi that gives you athletes' foot. Then they say we should put a fresh pair of socks on before sleeping, right? We know that. That's what this whole article is about. And they also talk about you need to wash your socks. in 140 degrees Fahrenheit to kill all the bacteria.

Now they told us before. So now I've got to put new clean socks on. We're not supposed to sleep naked because sleeping naked makes your bed sheets filthy. Does it. Does it? Okay.

No, that's not sleeping. That's a difference. The average person also, according to this, This article passes gas, not you, just the average person. I'm not talking about you, the average person. Don't. No, I don't want to hear it.

The average person passes gas 15 to 25 times a day. No, I don't, no. 15 to 20 times a day. Not me, not you. The average, though, the average people do, according to this. So that can happen when you're sleeping. So you don't want to sleep naked. I kind of do now.

I mean, now you're talking, now I've got to change my underwear, I got to change my socks, I got to, I can't. What does this world be coming, man? Holy cow. All right, well, be careful. Just be careful out there is all I'm saying.

And wear clean socks. You know, my mother always said when I was a little kid, whenever we'd go out somewhere, I had to put clean socks on and clean underwear on. Always. And she was, you know, I was always making sure that I had my ears clean and I had clean underwear on because you never know what's going to happen. Words to live by.

Words to live by right there. Make sure your ears are clean and you got clean underwear on. Why? Because you never know what's going to happen.
