And now, chewing the fat with Jeff Fisher.
Okay, so whole cucumbers produced by fresh start produce sales, and I love them,
were recalled May 23rd, almost a month ago now.
If you're listening live, today is the 19th of June, Pride Month, 2024.
And so now these cucumbers, in this recall, are being designated a class one
risk level recall from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. Now, they have three different classes.
We've covered that before. But class one recalls products that could cause serious injury or death.
If you're eating a cucumber that you purchased May 23rd, you pretty much deserve to be sick.
Okay. Why are we even worried about it? They're gone. They're long gone. I know that we have,
It's a reasonable probability that the use or exposure to products could cause serious adverse health consequences.
Yeah, no kidding.
But they were recalled back in May.
I mean, the cucumbers were distributed between May 17th and May 21st of this year.
And then the recall was done on the 23rd.
The contamination was salmonella, one of the leading causes of food poisoning in the U.S., yeah, I got it.
The recalled cucumbers are dark green in color, approximately 1,000.
1.5 to 2 inches in diameter and 5 to 9 inches long.
We're talking about cucumbers here.
It's original recall notice.
The FDA clarified that many cucumbers and English cucumbers
are not included in this recall.
What are we even doing?
It's been a month.
Come on now.
Stop it.
So, yes, that's what I'm saying.
It's your fault, okay?
If you're eating a cucumber,
it's been in your fridge and is still,
you think is still good after a month?
No, it is not.
I got news for you.
I don't care what kind of crisper drawer you have.
That cucumber is not good.
So for your safety,
just know that the cucumbers
that have an expiration date,
I didn't know cucumbers had expiration dates,
but, and they bear the lot number,
BG 0813804
are a class one
recall now and do not eat them, throw them away or return them to place of purchase. Or I think
we've covered this before. You just tell the store, hey, I bought some cucumbers that they were bad.
I'm pretty sure they're a part of the recall. Can I have a couple more? And they'll say,
sure, go ahead. Welcome. Welcome to chewing the fat.
So the airline industry is really back in the news.
We've got some news from Southwest.
We've got some news from American Airlines.
And we had the Boeing CEO, Dave Calhoun, testify between before a Senate subcommittee yesterday.
So we have two unreported Southwest incidents that they only revealed, you know, long after it was done, two Southwest flights involving the Boeing 737 Max 8.
We're back to Boeing again.
They were both able to land safely without injuries to passengers or crew.
The FAA has opened an investigation into an April flight
that came within 400 feet of crashing into the Pacific Ocean near Hawaii
due to an inadvertent landing attempt that was aborted.
I don't know if that's Boeing's fault.
One month later, the flight from Phoenix to Oakland sustained damage from a Dutch roll
which is when an aircraft's tail
slide side to side with the plane
rocking in a way that causes the wings
to roll up and down.
On event Southwest did not report,
I mean, it took them a couple weeks to report that.
So is that, I mean, that's not Boeing's fault.
I'm sorry, unless it was
a mechanical failure
on the plane, which I guess it could be.
Then we have the
American Airlines. Remember the story
where the lady was gagged
and she was strapped with duct tape
in the chair.
And she's still, there's one shot,
one video shot of a guy
as he's getting off the plane
and he's holding the baby
and he's got his phone up and he's just videotaping her.
And she's in the chair with the duct tape.
Woo!
Woo! Woo! Woo!
He's duck taped. It's awesome.
And apparently after they duct taped her
and tied her to the chair, she still tried to spit.
She was amazing.
All right, so now,
she's being sued by the FAA.
Heather Wells was accused of trying to open an aircraft door mid-flight from Dallas to Charlotte, North Carolina.
Flight attendants with the help from a passenger.
Yeah, passengers will restrain.
I don't think that's why we're not going to have, we're not going to have any more, you know,
airplanes hijacked because passengers won't have it anymore.
It's not going to happen.
Anyway, so they were able to restrain her with duct tape after she tried to kick, spit,
and headbutt people, and they did too, man.
They duct taped her ass to that seat and her mouth, and that's enough.
So after the incident happened after Wells had a drink of Jack Daniels.
Uh-huh.
There was a lot more going on in her body than just a drink of Jack Daniels, but I digress.
And she started running up and down the aisles to open the front cabin door as she yelled profanities.
Now, this happened back in 2021.
So the FAA fined her $81,950 in 2022.
She has yet to pay them, which, I mean, I understand.
You get fined.
Okay, so you find me.
Great.
Good luck getting the money.
Well, now they're suing her for that money to collect the money.
So maybe she probably should have worked out a deal with the FAA.
And maybe she was trying.
I don't know if she was actually saying,
hey, I can't afford
82,000.
I can give you 10 bucks
a month for the next
85,000 years. How about that?
You know, whatever.
And I've got some extra miles
stored up that I'll trade you
for a couple of bucks. How about that?
I don't know that she tried to do that.
But that's what the lawsuit is about.
And so we'll see what becomes of that.
And I don't know if she
if she's been banned
from flying. It's very possible. I mean,
I would guess that, and this is just a guess,
once you get duct taped to a seat in an airline,
probably not going to be able to fly on other airlines.
But I don't know that.
I don't know that.
Maybe, you know, maybe Spirit will take a shot.
Go ahead.
You got to pay $100,000 extra for your luggage,
but you can fly on Spirit, no problem.
Then we had the Boeing CEO testify before Congress
or a Senate subcommittee yesterday.
And this was the first time that he faced congressional lawmakers since the Alaska Airlines 737 Max 9 was forced to perform an emergency landing in January.
It was just a little gaping hole in that fuselage.
Don't worry about it.
Stop.
So hours before he met with the senators, there was another whistleblower that came out.
And it was a quality assurance investigator, Sam Mohawk is his name, claimed.
that the plane maker was losing hundreds of faulty parts due to improper tracking and storage,
and some of them may have ended up in an aircraft.
I mean, okay.
So he also said he was told to hide parts from the FAA and was retaliated against for speaking out.
Well, I mean, he wasn't killed, so I'd like to know what the retaliation was.
Ha!
You're still alive.
You're welcome.
So the subcommittee
You're correct
For now
I know what you're saying for now
And I do right
But it's tough to kill him now
It's between me and you
It's tough
I mean he's out there
He's out in the open now
And he's been mentioned
By the Senate subcommittee
He's been mentioned on
You know shows across America
And at least I think he has
He's obviously been mentioned here
Sam Mohawk
So if something
You know
Maybe the bad accident happens
Maybe I don't know
Could be just a coincidence
That wow
He just happened to drive off that cliff.
Who knew?
I mean, there was some break issues.
Who knew?
He didn't car upkeep, mechanical.
Who knows?
Anyway, subcommittee said that they had received similar reports
from other Boeing employees that paint a troubling picture of a company that
prioritizes speed of manufacturing and cutting costs over ensuring the quality and safety
of aircraft.
Now, the hearing took place with the company under a regulatory microscope.
Yeah, no kidding.
federal investigators have found various issues with its manufacturing process.
And, I mean, the Justice Department is, I mean, they're looking at criminal prosecution.
So Calhoun, who was brought on as CEO in 2020 in the aftermath of the fatal Boeing accidents,
began his testimony.
And I didn't realize, I read this, and then I see that.
I saw the footage this morning.
He began his testimony by apologizing to crash victims, family members.
members in attendance. He stood up and turned around and faced the audience. He didn't just say it
as part of his opening statement to the Senate subcommittee. I mean, he turned up in Apollo.
Okay. All right. Fine. Good. Good for you. Bending the knee saying,
you're sorry, isn't going to work on this, but, you know, good. He answered pointed questions,
I guess, about Boeing's effort to approve safety, the sufficiency of its management reshuffling,
and whether he truly deserved his $32.8 million annual pay.
Okay.
So he acknowledged that Boeing has issues with safety culture.
Oh, no kidding.
And admitted that if he if,
and admitted that it had retaliated against whistleblowers.
Wow.
And lamented a shortage of trained workers.
But assured that.
that the company is committed to fixing the issues.
Are you? Are you commit?
He admitted to retaliation?
Wow.
Okay.
So now he claims he's going to step down from this position at the end of the year.
And Boeing apparently is struggling to find a replacement.
I'd like to say, my name is Jeff Fisher.

All right.
So I was looking at this email from journal research, and it has the top 10 most popular Broadway
musicals on Spotify.
And I believe that the top three have actually become the top three because of my daughter,
who does not.
I've heard every one of these songs on every one of these musicals.
a million times.
So, I mean, she's worth at least a million of these millions of streams.
So, and they have the top ten.
So, you know, number ten is Back to the Future.
Back to the Future has 11 million, a little over 11 million streams.
And Juliet has ninth place with a little over 23 million streamed.
Aladdin has 81 million streams.
Now we're getting into somewhere.
Moulon Ruse, the Mule.
Musical has 105,000, almost 106 million streams.
The Lion King, 173 million, almost 174 million.
Hades Town has 352 million, almost 353 million.
37 songs on that soundtrack.
Wow.
Then we get fourth place, the Book of Mormon.
The Book of Mormon has 16 songs, has 265 million, 131,331,300.
40
total streams and 16,570,780,785,
average streams per song.
Okay, that's fourth place.
Now we're getting somewhere, all right?
So then these top three I've listened,
at least a million times.
Wicked is in third place, 27 songs,
739,89,802,251 streams.
27 billion 400 million no that's 27 million
27 million 400 not a billion
27 million 400,000
like Joe Biden here with numbers
27 million 400,000 83.37
37 million, 483.37 average streams per song
then we get to six
this musical
I mean my daughter listens to this musical
I've listened to it
at least a million times.
And according to this rating, it has 27 songs.
There's one on that soundtrack that I've listened to probably a million alone.
The, uh, all you want to do.
Oh my gosh.
I listen to that song.
I can't tell you how many times.
So their total streams are 500 million, 433,898, with 55 million.
603,766.44 average streams per song.
And I'm telling you, at least a million of those
are my daughter playing six with All You Want to Do.
I mean, that's all I listen to.
I mean, just incredible.
That whole soundtrack is awesome.
but like I said, I've listened to that song alone
at least a million times in my life.
Then, number one.
Now that's not number one, six.
Six is number two and way behind number two.
The number one is far and away, number one.
Say it with me now, Hamilton.
All 44 songs.
I just, okay, so this actually is the billions,
total streams.
6,405 million, 637,764 total streams.
Holy cow.
Average streams per song.
145 billion.
582 million, 676.
No, that's not right.
145.
No, that's not right.
That's 145 million.
That's not a billion.
So 6 billion total streams.
145 million, 582,6,676.45, average streams per song.
So I gave them too much credit for the average streams per song.
Sorry, okay.
So it is 6 billion total streams, though.
And I must have listened to that soundtrack a million times as well,
which I enjoyed the play.
I enjoy it was fun.
And all the songs are great.
And, you know, it was, hey, Lynn Mounted Miles, I love you, Lynn.
Okay, it's great.
That's a genius thing that you do.
did and it's great. The whole thing is great. But congratulations to all these
Broadway musical plays for her. I mean, Miranda, I don't know who gets the money,
but that's just Spotify. He doesn't need to do anything else. No, obviously he will. It
won't be as good as Hamilton. But just amazing. And I find myself thinking, well,
am I ever going to listen to this stuff again? And the answer to me that would be, of course.
All right, let's go to the break room.
I need something cold to drink desperately.
So now I'm starting to sing these Broadway songs.
I came into the day.
I woke up this morning singing Viva Las Vegas.
I can't get the song out of my head.
And it's stuck in my head from the movie Army of the Dead.
So in the beginning of Army of Dead, probably the first 14 minutes of Army of the Dead is fantastic.
And I enjoyed the heck out of that movie.
But the first 14 minutes are fantastic.
And really, all you need to do, and I'll just tell you what I've done, is fast forward up to about eight minutes.
Fast forward into about eight or nine minutes.
And that's when the zombie king is overlooking Vegas.
He's overlooking the city of Vegas.
And that's when they start out with the music, Viva Las Vegas.
And during that entire song, the five-minute song, is when the zombies are taking over Vegas.
I mean, it's a fantastic five minutes of video and audio.
And that's when the zombie king is taking over Vegas.
And it's just, so I've been singing, you know, Viva Las Vegas from the soundtrack of Army of the Dead.
And then now I'm into the Broadway musicals.
So, you know what's going to happen later?
I'll be singing George Benson Broadway.
That's the kind of sad human.
being I am.
I know.
I know.
Don't look at me like that.
So,
speaking of don't look at me like that.
Justin Timberlake was arrested.
Do you?
I don't know if we talked about it yesterday.
I've been doing so many shows.
I've been doing Pat to Pat overtime.
And, you know, this show, I give and I give and I give.
I'm working this tongue to the bone for you.
Okay.
But, so if we talked about it, forgive me.
But I will say that some of the details of the Justin Timberlake arrest are pretty interesting.
So he's apprehended by police in the Hamptons, 1237 a.m. Tuesday.
And this is according to the Sag Harbor Village Police Department.
And I love the Sag Harbor Village Police Department.
So according to police, Timberlake was pulled over after failing to stop at a stop sign
and maintain his lane of travel.
Upon investigation, it was determined that Mr. Timberlake was open.
his vehicle in an intoxicated or operating his vehicle in an intoxicated position.
Huh.
The singer was held overnight following his arrest and was released on his own recognizance
following his Tuesday morning arraignment.
He spent the night in the drunk day.
An officer on routine parole spotted his 2025 gray BMW with Florida plates,
blow a stop sign and veer out of his lane at 1217 a.m.
That's what the court paper say.
He refused to take a breath.
breathalizer three times, which is good.
All right?
And they put on there, which is his right to do.
Sure, but they continued to ask him about it,
which really kind of annoys me.
But they asked him a couple more times, and he's like, no.
So his eyes were bloodshot and glassy.
A strong odor of an alcoholic beverage was emanating from his breath.
He was unable to divide attention.
He had slowed speech.
He was unsteady afoot, and he performed poorly on all standardized field sobriety tests.
That sounds like me on an average day.
Wait.
Oh, no, never mind.
The officer added in handwritten notes in the document that the star was very unbalanced
when performing required roadside tests in sneakers,
such as putting his feet heel to toe and walking in a straight line.
Again, that's me.
Unable to focus on speaking while looking for vehicle registration,
he described Timberlink as calm throughout the ordeal.
the cop he said that the police officer wrote down then under his breath
Timberlake said this is going to ruin the tour
and the cop responded not knowing who he was
what tour you don't know who Justin Timberlake is
come on now you're a police officer for the
Sag Harbor Village Police Department in the Hamptons
and you don't know who Justin Timberlake is but okay okay
You don't know who he is.
And they said he didn't show any entitlement at all,
although he did refuse the test.
They mentioned that again.
He did refuse the test.
Oh, that's his right, though.
Yeah, okay.
But you're pissed that he refused the test.
So I don't know why if you knew who he was,
I guess maybe you say you don't know who he is.
You're hoping to get him to be elitist and get a reaction.
Maybe.
I don't know.
Maybe legitimately.
didn't know who he was.
But then Justin said the world tour.
Duh.
He didn't say duh.
I said that.
If I'm Justin, I'm like,
what do you mean what tour?
You know who I am?
He didn't say that though.
He didn't.
So then he was handcuffed and hauled off
to police headquarters,
which is like right around the corner.
Wait, what?
Do you mean Sag Harbor Village?
Is it that large?
No, no.
You mean he ran the one stop light?
Yes, okay, that's what he did.
All right.
so he was handcuffed and hauled off
and they asked him again
if we can administer a blood alcohol content
no
I'm not doing now this is his answer
I'm not doing a chemical test
that's different than the old blood alcohol
content breathalyzer
there's no test we're not I'm not giving you blood
nothing no test
so then about 50 minutes later
they ask him again
and he goes, I refuse.
Then they asked him again.
So for three times, three times.
No, I refuse.
How many times you have to refuse to the police
before they finally get it?
I guess the number is three.
I guess the number is three.
It's incredible.
Amazing.
Anyway, Justin, we'll see what happens.
I don't think this ruins his tour at all.
I mean, I know he's had a struggle with alcohol before
or some kind of drug addiction before.
I don't know that he's supposed to be drinking,
so he might be, you know, be bad for the,
for the crowd in the tour to know that he's busy partying again.
I don't know.
And if he, his answer with, you know,
I'm not taking a chemical test,
that's different than alcohol.
That means he's got other things going on,
which, you know, look, I'm not judging.
Way, I am far from judging.
You do you, boo.
but you know he's just that good you are not figuring out you're not showing people what's in my body
okay no there's none of your freaking business and that will ruin the tour that will ruin the tour so
we'll see what happens to Justin I you know he's got a concert I think coming up this weekend
so we'll see we'll see if it actually happens and how he performs it is interesting to me that
someone of Justin's stature and I know I get it you get drunk or you get
high and you think that you're invincible and you're just going to, I can do it. I can be
fine. I'm driving fine. I just got to get home. But in today's world, why are you driving?
Why, what are you doing? I realize you want to drive your great BMW, but don't do it when you're,
you know, under the influence of chemicals and alcohol. It just doesn't make any sense. You have
access. We all have access to drivers now. There's a thing called, what's it called again? Oh,
yeah, Uber. There's another thing called.
What's it called?
Oh, yeah, Lyft.
There's other things called.
Oh, yeah, a limousine service.
A limo service isn't for the hoity toities anymore.
I mean, if you're in trouble, I call a cab.
That's actually a limousine service in my world.
But I'm just saying you don't need to drive.
It's really strange.
I don't understand that mindset in today's world.
I understand athletes who are high profile going out and partying
and then attempting to drive.
Why?
It just doesn't make any sense to me.
I just, I don't understand.
I honestly, I don't understand.
It's hockey season, and you can get anything you need delivered with Uber Eats.
Well, almost, almost anything.

Probably, I don't know, the best baseball player ever, maybe.
I mean, he's in the talks of it.
passed away at the age of 93.
The Say Hey Kid.
Now he played for the Birmingham Black Barons
of the Negro American League as a teenager
until he signed with the New York Giants in 1951.
Then he gets drafted,
goes to the Korean War for a couple years,
comes back,
and then does 21 of the 23 seasons
in the big leagues with the Giants.
Incredible.
He batted 302

I mean, just incredible.
From 1954 to 1971,
averaged 35 home runs,
18 stolen bases per season,
named the National League MVP in 54 and 65,
won 12 Golden Gloves,
which he's tied with Roberto Clemente
for a most by an outfielder.
He was an all-star game MVP in 63 and 68.
He's got 660 home runs,
1,909 RBIs,
ranked 6 out of the alt-octed,
time home run leaderboard behind his godson, Barry Bonds, Hank Aaron, Babe Ruth,
uh, and Alex Rodriguez. He was inducted into the baseball hall of fame, his first year of
eligibility in 1979. I mean, this guy was awesome. I loved Willie Mays. And of course,
everybody remembers the catch, the over-the-shoulder catch at center field. I mean, he,
you know, was, was baseball. He was baseball. Willie Mays. I mean, rest in peace. The guy was 93. And when
you saw him.
The last time I saw him,
and I don't remember the last time I saw him,
but I do remember him being in a wheelchair.
And I thought, oh,
Willie May's in a wheelchair, but it's still Willie Mays.
I mean, it's still,
hello, you know who I am?
I'm still Willie Mays.
You treat that man with respect.
I don't care what he's sitting in.
I mean, holy cow, rest in peace,
Willie Mays.
Maybe before his time,
at the age of 93.
Don't stop it.
Then we have Nancy McKenzie.
Nancy McKenzie dead at the age of 81.
Nancy was the Latin American actress known for voicing Marge Simpson on the Simpsons.
Now, it's not Martin American version.

okay she was born in Peru
and then she moved to Mexico
and did a bunch of Mexican soap operas
and she did voice work for
she was Daphany and Scooby-D
you know, for the Latin American version.
And she did the voices of some other actress
to Diane Keaton, Sigourney Weaver, Judy Dench,
Bet Midler, all in, you know, movies that were, you know,
dubbed for Latin America.
So anyway, rest in peace to...
What's her name again?
Nancy McKenzie, dead at the age of 81.
So did you see?
There's all kinds of headlines about the school.
Guter Braun, the manager used to manage
Ariana Grande
and Justin Bieber
and what's her face, Taylor Swift.
He's the one that bought the Taylor Swift
albums and
wouldn't sell them back to her, so that's why she
had to redo all the music.
She did her on herself.
And so, and after that
debacle, he kind of stepped back
because they all dropped him.
I'm sorry, he quit managing.
So now they're making a big deal out of him.
Yeah, he's just going to not manage anymore.
he's going to focus on Ithaca Holdings.
And is it Ithaca that he's still?
No, he's stepping back from being a manager
to focusing on being the CEO of
Hybee America, H-Y-B-E.
That's his company?
Oh, that's the company to which he sold
his own Ithaca Holdings company to.
Okay, I got it.
So, I mean, is he actually stepping back
or is just that he can't find any clients?
So, can't find any clients.
nobody nobody will become my manager or wants me to become their manager uh you know what i'm retired
i'm not going to manage anymore so i think that's what it is it's just i i find it amazing that
these headlines are all scooter brawn officially retires from management diddy diddy okay okay
if you say so hey oh did you have you watched oh have you watched oh and i can't i haven't
gotten to it yet house of a dragon season two it just doesn't
started this week.
Episode one.
It debuted on
HBO and Max.
And it's supposed to be
bigger and badder than ever.
In fact, the one review I read
it's bigger, batter,
and dragoner,
dragonair ear. I can't even say it.
Dragon ear. Dragon ear.
Yeah. Bigger, batter,
and dragoneer.
Okay. I hope it is.
But I haven't seen it. I can't find time.
Like yesterday I get home. So tired.
and I get home and I get finished up work
I know I'm going to cry to you for a little bit
I'm going to whine a little bit
and I'm just tired
I still have plenty of work to do
and I've got to eat
and deal with the family
and then you know I'm still working
and my wife says
oh I just take a break and we can watch
we can watch House of the Dragon
I'm like I can't
if I stop for that
then I'm going to halfway
you know halfway through
I'm going
it would be sound to sleep
and I still have plenty of work to do
so why don't you get back in the kitchen
and get me some dinner.
That may or may not have been at the actual conversation.
Anyway, I have to watch it.
I got to get to it.
It's up and running.
I have been watching Mayor of Kingston
drops every Sunday on Paramount Plus.
Been really, really good, really dark, really big guyish.
And Criminal Minds Evolution on Paramount Plus.
They dropped, you know what?
They dropped two shows.
for the first week
and then it's one after right.
Just do two shoes.
If you're going to piss me off,
if you're going to make me mad
by making me not be able to just stream
it at my own leisure
or waiting eight weeks
until you're all done dropping all the episodes
and then binging all of them at once,
if you're going to do that,
just drop them two at a week, two a week.
Let me have two a week.
Let me, let's compromise, okay?
I'll watch it once a week.
Two episodes a week.
Okay.
But Jeff, you're already watching one episode a week when it drops.
I don't bog me down with that.
I'm trying to make a deal here.
Man, that just ticks me off.
And I see where production has begun for a Knight of the Seven Kingdoms,
which is a prequel series to Game of Thrones,
said a century before,
I thought that's what, Dan,
I thought that was the stupid new one.
House of the Dragon.
That's pre-Game of Thrones, too.
I mean, that's pre-Restero's Targaryen.
I mean, we've got dragons.
The dragons are still alive.
They're still, you know, there's plenty.
There's dragons sitting around smoking cigarettes waiting to be,
well, you're going to ride me today.
I mean, but I know.
Yeah, I know.
House of the Dragon is a prequel.
But this is a prequel series two, Game of Thrones.
said a century before the events of the original series.
So is House of Dragon what?
Two or three centuries before?
Probably.
Filming is taking place in Belfast, Ireland.
Releases expected in 2025.
Good.
Okay, so it'll be more Targaryians, of course.
Obviously, they survive through that.
So it's more of the Game of Thrones universe.
So this has got to be post-house of Dragon.
Still pre-game of Thrones.
All right.
All right.
Like I said, it's post, I just was told in my ear.
It's 100 years after House of Dragons.
Like I said, so this is post-house of Dragons pre-game of Thrones.
When I got a great deal on a great gift at winners, I started wondering,
could I get fabulous gifts for everyone on my list?
Like this designer fragrance for my daughter.
It's just $39.99?
How could I resist?
This luxurious wool throw for my sister.
This gold watch for my partner?
A wooden puzzle for my niece?
Leather gloves for my boss?
Ooh, European chocolate for the crossing guard?
At these prices, could I find something for everyone at winners?
Stop wondering. Start gifting.
Winners find fabulous for less.
So the Edmonton Oilers defeated the Florida Panthers last night.
So they are now down two games to three.
are, you know, Florida Panthers are up three games to two
against Edmonton.
It looked like they were going to come back to Florida,
and Florida was going to win the gentleman's win,
gentlemen's sweep with one loss.
But no, Edmonton seems to have their number.
You know, speaking to Edmond,
they come back Friday night for another battle up in Edmonton
that travel another, I don't know,
or two or three thousand miles from Miami to Edmonton
to play a hockey game.
And we'll see Friday night if Edmonton can win again
and then come back to Florida and win.
So Florida has two chances,
either in Edmonton or in Florida to win.
And we'll see if that happens.
They look like Edmund had their number last night,
but I'm not a hockey expert.
I just know what I watch and see.
Anyway, speaking of Edmonton,
you know the girl, the Oilers fan Kate,
that went viral for showing her breasts?
You know, and she's up in the stands
and she's all excited for wins.
She shows her breasts.
I mean, okay, so what am I supposed to do?
not look at the at the feed when it comes across my social media feed i'm supposed to not look at it
when she shows me her breasts of course i'm going to look at it and of course i'm going to judge them
and they were pretty good they looked really nice so she posted another video and it's uh but she's
going off and saying hey uh you know i posted a video and uh you know you could be kind to kitties
but people are still going to hate you and at the end of the day i got drunk i showed my
She uses the T word.
I showed my, and I know, I know, I said, oh yeah, I lifted my oilers jersey up and he took me.
Anyway, so the, and at the end of the day, F you, and I'm thinking, okay, well, that whole video is great.
I'm with her 100%.
She's right.
She's fine.
She's out at some, what she called her favorite place, was some river with some kind of train bridge
across at her pipeline or something.
But, okay, she didn't
show her breasts in the video.
What are you doing? The whole point
of us watching you is to see
your breast now. So
when you come on to holler
at us that you got drunk and you're saying
F you to the people that didn't
like the viral video of you showing
off your breasts at the O'Ores game,
you have to say, well,
here you go again. That's the
whole point and show them
again. I sat through this damn video
without seeing any breaths.
I was a little disappointed.
That's all I'm saying.
I think you know what I mean.
You know, you get disappointed.
You expect to see something,
and when you don't, it's disappointing.
All right, so let's get out of here today.
Thank you for listening.
I appreciate you.
I'm going to leave you with a couple of jokes for the day.
I got two jokes emailed to chewing the fat
at the blaze.com from Eva.
So I don't know if she wrote them.
I don't know if someone else wrote them,
but I didn't.
Okay?
and I'm just going to read them to you here.
More like, kind of like dad jokes, actually, is what they are.
So I don't know that Eva, you know, actually wrote them.
Okay, so first joke from Eva.

It was intense.
All right.
