They announced that riders in the U.S. will soon be able to set a preference for women drivers. Yeah, don't get too excited. Okay, calm down. wipe that smile off your face. The app will let you choose women drivers when booking your ride. You know, like it does now with Uber XL.

Riders will also have the option to pre-book with women and can set their preferences in the app. But there's always a big but and it probably doesn't belong to a woman. Which they are not going to guarantee a woman driver. Well, what's the point? Oh, I know. We're going to prioritize.

We're going to prioritize women when searching for their ride. Oh. Okay. So I can say, hey, I want a woman, and a woman may not show up. And the guy that shows up is going to be pissed because it's going to say, hey, wanted a woman. But you'll do. So they've been testing this program in France. And they also said it will be available stateside for Raiders.

for riders in L.A., Detroit, and San Francisco first. It originally introduced the option in Saudi Arabia. Right. Carmerline. A year after the country began allowing women to drive. Yeah, okay. All right. I'm sure that went over great in Saudi Arabia.

Now, Lyft introduced a similar program in the U.S. a couple years ago only about one-fifth of Uber drivers are women so yeah they're going to prioritize it but you're not getting a woman lady if you want to be an Uber driver

though and you're a female now's the time reports I will say that they have all kinds of reports of sexual harassment and assaults in rideshare vehicles just don't worry about that

I don't worry about that at all I know you're concerned and we've not, you know, we got a little concern with how the company handles that and everything, but the company's most recent report,

and this will make you, this will make you feel a little bit better, okay? The company, uh, recent report found that 2,717 incidents were reported between 2021 and 2020. Now, that's down from 5,981

between, 2017 and 2018. So don't even worry about it. Don't even worry about any of assaults, any kind of sexual harassment in the ride chair, and just go ahead and say, yeah, I want a woman. And you, I

I'm a fan. I'm a fan. But you're not going to get it. You have very few women drivers and there's no guarantee that you're getting a woman. So, you'll be happy the way it is and you'll like it, okay? I mean, we often

offer it, what more do you want? We can't deliver every time, but we do offer it. You see where Candace Owens, you know, I've met Candace a couple times. I like her. She's okay. You know, she's nice. And she's friends, she's close friends with a show I used to produce the Jackie Daly show. Jackie Daly is good friends with Candace.

So, I mean, that's how I met. Anyway, she was just sued. You know, she's been going off on saying that Bridget, Macron was born Ahmad, the wife of French president Emmanuel Macron. And I think it's funny.

I think it's funny. I don't know. I didn't realize that she was doing eight part series on it, but she was. Well, the Macron's are unhappy about that. So they have filed a defamation lawsuit against Candice

in Delaware claiming she peddled that France's first lady was born a man. Yeah, and that's what she said. The 22 count complaint, 22 count complaint, filed in Delaware Superior Court, seeks an unspecified amount

damages, the eight part series spreading a host of allegations about the macrones, including that Bridgett, macron was born a man, stole another person's identity, and transitioned to a woman.

That is awesome. Plus, she's like 100 years older than him. I know there's no age limit on love. I got it. But she groomed him. I mean, she was his teacher. She groomed him, and now she's, you know, and now they're doing a little macawl business.

And what business it is, because he's running the country. Okay? That's a good gig. I mean, he's a douchebag, and the country has gone to hell. But still, I mean, they live like kings. Anyway, so, Owens said that, no, she rebuffed three separate demands for retractions with the first coming, oh, wow, in December,

and the final one sent the first of this month, July, and will continue to push the outlandish defamatory and far-fetched fictions about the French president and the first lady. These claims are demonstrably false, and Owens knew they were false. when she published them. Here's the thing. Mr. President of France.

So? Tough. Get over it. We should not be allowing French leaders to be suing American citizens and the American courts. No. Over broadcasting.

No, that should not happen. But I digress. So in response to the lawsuit, Candace did not respond. She had a spokesperson. I respond for her. So that Kansas is not shutting up. This is a foreign government attacking the First Amendment rights.

Thank you. Thank you. I'm not a spokesman for Candace, but thank you. I get it. How about you just go back to France? Okay. Oh, you never left? You just sent you due people over to file a lawsuit in Delaware?

Oh, okay. All right. Now, I don't know why it was filed in Delaware, except that maybe Candace's company is formed and that's where it's listed in Delaware. Delaware is a big state for companies like that. I get it. And Macaron was pissed. She started her live stream with the clip from the movie Gladiator.

First of all, any show that starts with that can't be bad, which is Russell Crow's character. Are you not entertained? Yes. This is why you're here, she told her audience. This is how I feel right now receiving my papers. Yeah. So this is on. Bring it on to the Macrons.

I love it. The lawsuit, according to the Macrons, aims at Owens for promoting unfounded theories and spreading misinformation and said she aims to inflame and detract attention through sensationalism and conspiracy theories. How dare you? So?

I mean, so okay so the eight part series about the macrones which I have not seen I am a fan already and I haven't even seen it

becoming Bridgette that is awesome that's very very good so the fight is on the fight is on and the macrones are really pissed at Candice Owen. Good.

And I again repeat to the president of France and the first lady of France. So? I mean, I haven't heard Candice's show. Maybe the whole series starts with this. Maybe they brought back to Cannon. Oh, she's, I mean, that's my theme. So I hope she was not using it.

I may have to fly the lawsuit for that. But, I mean, the eight-part series with this? Come on. Cannon. Canon. starring William Conrad Tonight's episode Oh, we got to get stars

Okay Diane Farsi I thought we had one made that didn't have all this But okay John Van Ark Yeah Joan Van Ark I love her

Tonight's episode Tonight's episode Becoming Brizit No I mean that's my favorite One country blues But should be

Pat Gray unleashed on Blaze TV and Blaze Radio and wherever else you can get your shows. I've had a number of kexie cookies, so I know. I don't look at me like that. I have, okay?

And I know my way around a cookie or two or three. I was at the grand opening of this place in Fort Worth. I know, I know. And every time I sneak away, I go to the back. And, oh, what are these? They were not happy with me at that point. But I am a huge fan and love Kexi cookies. And their newest flavor is called Dubai chocolate.

Summerberry pie bursting with vibrant flavors of wild blueberries and sweet sun-kissed dehydrated strawberries. Inspired by homemade berry pie. It's soft, buttery, and. perfectly balanced with a hint

of tartness and just the right touch of sweetness. This cookie is like a picnic on a warm day. Comforting, joyful, and totally unforgettable. I'm in. I'm in. It sounds so good. And as I'm going through this, I'm looking at the

Kexie.com. So I've had this story in the fat pile for a while. And I just, you know, I want to share it with you because it's amazing to me. Chevron has just closed a $53 billion deal with Hess. now I knew that they were trying to merge and Exxon was saying, oh no, no, no, no, that can't happen. So apparently they closed the deal. Okay, so Chevron is now

or I should actually say Hess is part of Chevron. Hess was smaller than Chevron. I don't care how many of those Hess trucks you got for Christmas, which I have a thousand Hess trucks, by the way. Wow, when we live, in Florida. I mean, at that time, my kids were a little, and my folks wanted them, I wanted them. I literally, I believe I have a thousand test trucks. And at one point, there's the pictures out there online somewhere. I lined up a bunch of them on our staircase

and made sure they all had fresh batteries, so all the lights were on and everything was working. It's kind of cool. Anyway, so this deal happened back in 2023, but it's been, Exxon has been fighting them saying no you can't do that. Exxon said, ooh, no, Hess is contractually obligated to sell to us.

Oh, okay, because we've got that Guyana development and we operate in partnership with the China National Offshore Oil Corporation. That can't be bad, before making another deal.

but then they took it to arbitrators from the International Chamber of Commerce in Paris. Love them. They denied that claim. I don't think Manuel has anything to do with the International Chamber of Commerce, but I don't know. It's very possible, very possible. So they denied the claim. And that immediately Chevron said,

all right, here's your money. We're out of here. You're ours now. We own Hess. So there you go. Congratulations to them. There's another merger on the way, too. And I found this weird.

The headline is Union Pacific and Norfolk Southern, reportedly in talks to merge. Okay, two railroads. Which would create the largest railroad in North America linking the east and west coasts. Wait. have we not have we not seen the documentary Helen Wheels

I mean the last spike the golden spike was driven in on May 10th 1869 it was America's first transcontinental railroad we went from east to west

and tied both both tips of the country east and west to each other with the railroad It was the Union Pacific and the Central Pacific. So I guess they're making the case that Union Pacific and Norfolk Southern together make the largest railroad company linking these to the West. I'm not sure.

I'm a little confused. Plus, you know, I love trains. I love the railroad. 100%. I love railroads. I should have worked for the railroad. railroad. Not really. But I should have worked for the railroad. I love them.

But I really did think, I mean, we move goods and services, goods around the country, absolutely. For transportation? No. But we have a thing called aeroplanes. But I

really did. I mean, I thought we were connected, you know, coast to coast since 1869. So, if you don't believe me, go watch the documentary Hell on Wheels. You should be able to get that on your AMC app or maybe get it through Prime.

What a great documentary. I think there's six or seven seasons. Love that show. Hell on Wheels. And that's what it's about, the railroad after the Civil War. And that's the only, here's a spoiler for you.

They pound in the golden spike, okay? Oh, this is amazing. And then I see, speaking of airlines, air travel, we've had a lot of news about Delta lately. Well, Southwest is, hey, what about us? Delta's in the news, what about us? We get to talk to, okay. Yeah, well, Southwest is, you know, changing a lot of things these days. And they have now said that passengers will have assigned the seats,

starting January 27th. So they've actually got a date on it now. So remember last year they announced that the assigned seats were going to do that for the first time. They've been in business for over 50 years. That was their deal. No assigned seating. And no, we can't do that anymore.

We're going to do that. So they announced that January 27th, 2020, 26 will be the first day that there will be assigned seating on Southwest. There's not going to be any open cash. cattle calls anymore. You can book your seats

beginning the end of this month on the 29th of July, so you'll be able to book it. Now, according to them, there will be eight boarding groups based on seat selection and loyalty status, among other factors with priority going to holders

of more expensive tickets. The first two groups will go to top tiers of frequent flyers and the later groups will be reserved for choice and basic ticket holders. The current system will end on January 27th and the customer's can buy a sign seat starting July 29. I mean, that's what made them famous. I get it.

You know, times are changing. I got it. But then what was the other thing that everyone loved about Southwest Airlines? What was the other thing that everyone loved about Southwest Airlines? Oh, yeah. Free luggage.

You can travel with two free checked bags. That's ending. As a matter of fact, that's over. It ended at the end. of May. There's no more free luggage on Southwest. So, have fun. Have fun. Have fun.

Flying the friendly skies. Oh, wait, that's a different airline. I need something to drink. And I don't feel like waiting for a sky waitress. So I'm just going to go over to the break room and get something to drink. All right? Yeah, let's go. Please follow me on my social

I see where Francis Ford Coppola, I like Francis Ford Coppola. I mean, he's, uh, what is Francis Ford? 100 now? Okay, not quite 100. He's 86. I mean, that's a way. I should reach out, man.

I would love to talk to Francis Ford Coppola. And at 86, he's at the age where he doesn't care. He's Francis Fort Coppola. He can say whatever he wants. What are you going to do to him? Nothing is what you're going to do to him. And he was made in, he was born in Detroit. That's where he was made.

In Detroit, right there on the Michigan map right there, Detroit, the Motor City. Incredible. I didn't know he was from Michigan. Maybe that's my end to get the interview with Francis Fort Coppola. Anyway, he, you know, he did this. Last movie was Megatropolis. I'm sorry, Megalopolis. And it didn't go over well.

I mean, it was a bomb. It made like $12 million at the box office. It was not, it did not go over good. And he spent, I think all of it was his money. Maybe not all of it. But he spent like $120 million. Kind of like Kevin Koster. They went all in.

Yeah, Costa even made more money than Megalopolis. So anyway, He now owns the whole thing. All right. So he's taking a megalopolis. I'm sure he's not calling it what the critics were calling it, Megapilopoulos,

on a national theater tour, all right? With Live Nation. He wants to, I know. He got the rights back from Lionsgate, and he's now, according to this, selling out theaters, which I don't doubt,

selling out theaters, with question and answers, he's teasing a new cut that adds a dream sequences he originally removed from the theatrical version he puts it it was more weird I own the picture

I can do anything I want with it amen I got to reach out I want to talk to him about his tour his live nation tour with Megapalopoulos I won't call it that I will ask him I will ask him Francis what do you think of the critics that are calling it Megapopolis. And he may say

they were right. In flop, people didn't understand it. But we'll see. I have to reach out because I would love to talk to him about that. But at 86, he can say whatever he wants. And he can say whatever he wants right here on chewing the fat. I've got to reach out. I would love to talk to Francis Ford Coppola, man. That would be awesome.

And he could do whatever he wants. You know who else is doing whatever they want these days? Jennifer Lopez. I know, my girl J-Lo. So she is on her tour. I think she's touring Europe now, right, with her new tour. Because she didn't do well on her tour here in the United States and she was going through a rough time with Ben

and now she's officially divorced and they're apart. I don't think they've sold the dump in California yet. They've still got that $56 million albatross around their neck in Beverly Hills or Bel Air, wherever the hell it is. So, I mean, she's still got that going on. But she's got a new tour. She's 55 now.

Still looking good. Still looking good. I mean, J-Lo looking like J-Lo. And, yeah, she's Jenny from the block. Duh. And so she was giving her, you know, she's on stage, she's performing, and she's wearing her tight outfits,

and, you know, she's looking as good as a 55-year-old J-Lo could look. And apparently this new album that she's promoting, or at least she has a couple new songs that she's released. I have to go back. I know I follow her on her. I get the J-Lo email or whatever, but it always goes to my trash,

so I never actually read it. So I got to go back to the trash and read the J-Lo stuff. Anyways, like a J-Lo insider or whatever. Don't look at me like that. I did it so I could get the information for you. So she has got a new song called Up All Night, which I guess takes shots at Ben and according to this story

she has a song called Reckage of You which was specifically about Ben and then the up all night points to where Jennifer is at her in her life right now and this whole new era of Jennifer and she isn't going to be holding back

oh okay so well she was on stage she was on stage at one show and somebody held up a sign J-Lo marry me. And she said, I think I've done with that. I've tried that a few times. Yeah, no doubt about it. That's awesome.

That's awesome. So she also got to talking about how she likes to have sex at this show. And I'm thinking everybody was beating her up for it. Like what is she doing? She's ruining it. I mean, that's J-Lo. Plus, you're 55-year-old women. That's what they talk about.

That's what they talk about. Yeah. And she said that she's on stage. Oh, yeah. Okay, I'm sorry. The Luca Summer Festival in Italy. And who doesn't want to, who doesn't want to be a part of the Luca summer festival in Italy?

Love that. She told the audience about her different desires. And she said, I got to be honest with you. sometimes I get in different moods at night I don't know about you but I do and sometimes I like it hard me too

J-Lo, me too I have to be honest with you sometimes I get in different moods at night I don't know about you but sometimes I like it hard other days this is continuing to quote J-Lo now other days

I'm feeling a little romantic You put on candles, soft music. Those days I like it real slow. She continued on it. But there's other days. Maybe it's because of a new kind of time for me. Maybe because it's summertime and it's hot outside. I feel a little bit more naughty.

You ever get that feeling? Or you feel like being naughty? Of those days, I like it real. fast. Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha. That is awesome. I apologize Jay-Lo, but hey,

Dittie's in prison, so I can't help you out. Oh, we're not supposed to talk about that? Oh, I'm sorry. Never mind. Never mind. So it's kind of embarrassing the way she's looked at me over the years and maybe in Italy she's thinking about me again. And so I can understand that.

It's okay. So let's just. here uh what's the one uh what's a wrecking ball that's the one that uh wreckage of you uh was specifically about ben wreckage of you let's see what the lyrics are uh let's see okay so all it takes to make a diamond is pressure pressure it's only now i'm realizing i'm better better at knowing there's a difference when i see it from a distance i love i want the love i need it starts at me now i have found my way in. I'm going to stay there. Here's the chorus.

Well, we'll begin with Renee Kirby. Renée Kirby died at the age of 70. Now, you would remember Renee, if you saw him. He was the shallow hell actor who had Spina Bifida. Remember the movie and the guy who had Spina Bifida? And he really was a really cool guy. He appeared in another Fairley Brothers movie. And the reason was is because they saw him in his hometown. I think he was born in Bennington, Vermont, which I love that city, by the way. Bennington, Vermont is gorgeous.

And a really good friend of my first wife's who owned that town with Hemmings Motor News. That's a whole other story. Anyway, I love Bennington, been there. Gorgeous. But he was walking around town, and they saw him. and got to talking to him, and they loved him so much. They made the character for shallow hell. He said, this is you.

We're going to put you in the movie. I'm giving you a whole part. This is what we're doing. All right. So I loved the, and he had Spina Bifida, which was horrible, and he'd been fighting it all his life. And his brother said that, you know, he never slowed him down. It just showed that there's no limitations.

And he would say, you don't have to stand up to stand out. I mean, he was awesome. He was awesome. He had a great way of looking at life. Okay. What made, what made me laugh in this recap of Renee's life is that they say,

you know, he was in, I want to make sure I read it properly. It talks about his character. All right, on shallow hell. And how they found him, which I just told you. But in this article,

in shallow hell his character Walt also had spina bifida I mean I guess maybe in today's world you know what I guess maybe someone

who didn't have spina bifida could play someone with spina bifida only I don't know that that's allowed the only thing that I know that is allowed is a thin person playing a fat person but there's no way that a person with Spina Bifida could play you know what your character is a 6-7 NBA basketball star that's you we're gonna you just be you

and be walk around them with your hands on your hands with Spina Bifida but that's not what we see no no it's it's what we see that's that's the way it is uh holy cow he's his character and the movie also had Spinebifida. No kidding. These people just drive me insane. Anyway, the guy

suffered a lot. And then toward, I forget how long ago it was, he also survived throat cancer, and he had to remove his larynx so he lost his ability to speak. And it's just really sad. So rest in peace.

To Renee Kirby. The shallow hell actor who portrayed Walt, the guy with Spine Obifida, in the movie, dead at the age of 70. Then we have, I don't know if this is the right way to pronounce her name. Elliot Heinz, E-L-I-O-T-Hines, 22-year-old who went missing in Wisconsin.

She's a graduate student. she went missing and they couldn't find her. She was walking home from a bar called the Broncos Bar in La Crosse, which I'm sure is a fine establishment. And she disappeared. Well, they found her.

I know. She was last seen walking along the Mississippi River waterfront. Okay, raise your hand. How many of you do the Mississippi River was in Wisconsin? How many of you? You knew that? Okay.

All right, good. Slatney you show. so and then she in the direction of her apartment and then she disappeared well they found her uh in the river so sad uh as far as i know they have not said what the cause of death was uh so we'll get more and more information on that as time goes but uh they did find the missing graduate student in wisconsin uh Elliott E-L-I-O-T-E, and I apologize, however you pronounce it, that's how you pronounce it, Heinz,

found, and thankfully we can get a little bit of closure to her death at the age of 22. So yesterday, we had the Idaho judge sentenced Brian Coburger for his deal that he made so that he would avoid the death penalty, and he is now in prison. for life for the murders of Kaylee Congolvas, Madison Mogan, Zana Kernodle,

and Ethan Chapin. And he's going to serve life in prison without parole. He also was imposed a $50,000 fine and a civil penalty of $5,000 for

each death. and Goodrins. Goodrins. I can listen to play the judge and we had all the victims' statements and impact statements yesterday, which were just heartbreaking. I am as disappointed as many others that the state of Idaho decided to cut a deal

to get this guy in prison for the rest of his life and not go through the cost of a trial and get him on death row. So, will he, have an accidental slip and fall in prison, or do we just continue to keep him alive in prison for the rest of his life? Either way, he's off the streets. I feel better.

I did a story on Pat Gray this morning with my Fat Five, Pat Grave, Pat Gray unleashed, the chewing the fat, fat, fat, five. And it was about a 16-year-old kid who was, well, he was just a young kid,

headed back to Kansas City. He was been staying with some friends down in South Florida. And he was heading back home. and he well he was arrested at the Fort Lauderdale Hollywood International Airport after he blurted out

I have a bomb in my pocket now you got to be smarter in today's world he's a 16 year old kid but you got to be smarter so apparently someone overheard him say I've got a bomb in my pocket

and that needed to be reported and that needed a full-blown security response. And then we needed to evacuate the plane. Okay. So I get it. I get it. What if you actually had a bomb? I know.

I know. The mom says it was just a joke. He's a good kid. I get it. Spirit Airlines confirmed that, yep, the aircraft taxied to a remote location and guests were safely unplained. The plane was inspected.

and cleared by law enforcement. And I saw the TikTok video that shows them unplaining and it's raining in South Florida. I'd be so pissed. First of all, I'm pissed. What the hell happened? Why are we taxing out of here?

What's going on? Oh, some kids said he's got a bomb in his pocket. So do I. I got a bomb in my pocket too. Let's go. So that's a, but no, he was arrested. And taken away. You got to be smarter.

I know, don't look at me like that. I know you got to be. be smarter. The kid's dad showed up in court via Zoom asking the judge for grace saying he didn't believe he acted criminally. He was just an immature 16 year old. The teen's

lawyer actually were arguing that we don't even know where he said it. I don't know if that matters. I don't think you're supposed to say I've got a bob in my pocket as you're walking through the airport or on an airplane. But, okay. I mean, I love attorneys. That's fine.

And so none of that matter to the judge. All right. The mom said he was a good kid and he was just a joke. The judge said, you know what? You're going to undergo psychological evaluation and remain in custody at a juvenile facility. And he was charged with criminal mischief of $1,000 or more

and making a false report of a bomb explosive. Okay, shut up. Come on. So now, and Spirit Airlines said, we lost $50,000 in delays and disruptions. Did you? did you okay all right the play did take off which if i was on it i'd been you know happy about that uh was supposed to take off at 237 took off at 744 i'm sure they were going to leave on time

before this happened uh so uh anyway uh you know i know you're not supposed to say i got a bow in my pocket i know that and if i would have heard the kid do i start an international incident I don't know that I do. Honestly, I don't know that I do. I may say, dude, shut up. I got a bob in my pocket too, but I'm not going to advertise it. Or maybe you take him into the bathroom,

you search him, and you realize he doesn't have a bomb. And we take off and we get to Kansas City, okay? And everybody's going. But no, we can't do that. We got to shut it all down. Holy cow. Just incredible.

Anyway, I know you've got to be smarter. I know, I know. And look, who among us hasn't made a bomb joke at an airport? I have. I personally have. I remember once at the Lansing, a little of Lansing Michigan airport right, the state of Michigan. Center, the capital of a little bit.

I remember being at the airport with a girlfriend of mine. And I don't remember what we were talking about, but I made a joke about explosions or shooting or bombing or something. I don't even remember what it was. I just, I was, like, probably 16. It was a hundred thousand years ago. They had just put in wooden airplanes at the airport when I was 17. And the guy, the security, this is before TSA, obviously.

And there's a security guy there grabs me by the shoulder. Hey, you can't be talking like that. I could detain you right here, right now. And we were done. Because he knew I was just, just, just. joking. He just wanted to remind me I shouldn't be doing that joke in the airport. So maybe someone just needed to remind this kid. He shouldn't be doing it at the airport or on the airplane. But the judge sentencing him, holy cow. Okay, at a juvenile facility and a psychological evaluation.

All right. All right. I feel safer now. I know. I feel safer now. Thank you. All right, let's do the joke of the day. Actually, I'll tell you what. This was sent to me from John. And the subject line, check this out. So this is either a joke of the day or a real story. You decide, all right?

Stopped into this little Caesars just trying to get a $6 pizza and ended up on a full action movie. Just as I grabbed my order, this furious dude barges in yelling about how I cut him off in traffic earlier. Before I could even respond, he throws a punch. But then out of nowhere, the guy behind the counter jumps over it and he's like he's been waiting for this moment his entire life, beats the living hell out of the guy. The guy runs off and the cashier stands up, dust himself off. and I said, are you okay? And he looked me dead in the eye and said, bitch, this is little Caesars.

We always hot and ready. Five stars. Absolutely will return. So you decide. I know. I think I believe it too. Stream and subscribe to more Blaze media content at theblaze.com slash podcasts.
