And now, chewing the fat with Jeff Fisher. Those of you that have the new Apple iPhone 15, sorry about it, okay? Apple already knows there's an issue, so quit your whining, okay? Apparently, those of you that got the new iPhone 15 are a little, well, you're a little bummed, a little angry, and you should be. It's getting hot to the touch in their first few days out of the packaging. Yeah, and Apple said, hey, yeah, there's a little overheating problem. Don't worry about it.

We're working. The phone apparently is working over time to download user data and a bug in its new iOS 17 software. Yeah, so look, we're working on it. We're trying to fix the bugs with the app developers. And I guess there's a problem with Uber and Instagram. and we're trying to download user data. I mean, we just, what do you expect from us? Sure, you just spent, I don't know,

$5 to $1,500 on that new phone, and you expect it not to get hot to the touch when you use it? Please, we'll figure it out, but quit your whining, okay? Good luck, be careful. Welcome. Welcome to Chewing the Fat. So I'm pretty sure that this couple is now hired by the cruise line. All right.

So every so often now, for the past, I don't know, year and a half, something like that, we've heard the story about this Australian couple, became the stars of the sea as they've spent nearly 500 days cruising around the world after booking 51 back-to-back cruises. So they're from Australia, and they had the big, you know, COVID-19 lockdowns. So after that, they decided that it's cheaper than a retirement home.

We can just be on a cruise line. And so they say how wonderful it is. Everybody, the cruise workers all love them and people have heard about them and they're the celebrities on board. And we just love it. And we're just going to continue to be on cruise lines because that's our lifestyle.

Oh. Okay. Yeah, we're going to do it for a couple more years. Anyway, we start the day playing ping pong, and we love the ship's buffet, which you can tell, by the way. And you can go dancing, and it's just wonderful. And as for family, we see them when we, you know, port at a place near their home. So it's just wonderful. We just love to crack open a couple of beers and sit on our balcony and take in the views. Do you?

So I feel like we've been had. I feel like this is not really a retirement plan. This is just a couple that works for the cruise lines and to make everyone feel like cruises are the thing to do. Don't worry about it. You're fine. You don't have to worry about COVID. You don't have to worry about any diseases, anything like that.

Come and join the cruise company. Okay? And just be on a cruise ship. And you know what? What you could do is we have got to be. the crown princess which is even a bigger ship that's going to be leaving the dock soon we're going to be on that as well i think we've been had i think we've been had and that's okay i guess except that they try to pull it off as there it's just a couple who's going to retire and using the cruise ship as there

as a retirement home when really it's just an advertisement for the cruise ships and that's where we've been had Anyway, sounds like our president. Anyway. Speaking of our president, has anyone checked on him today? Because I thought he about fell over and died this weekend.

And I'm not a fan of that. No, really, I don't want him to drop over and just die while he's out there speaking. But it looked like he was close to it. I hope for the speaker has been one of a personal revelation. Okay. Okay. I'm not being facetious. All right. I, uh, um, oh, yeah. Shake him. Anyway. Take him. Yeah, I mean, it's, uh, it's bad. It's bad. Somebody needs to check out and make sure he's

okay. Because I was really concerned after that. And it looked worse than it sounded. I mean, it's just, holy cow, I know he was out there talking about the, you know, the last minute spending bill. We've, we averted the looming shutdown. And so we're all, you know, happy about that for the next, I don't know, 40 some days before Thanksgiving. And then we'll have to worry about shutting down the government again. So we'll see that. But, man, he did not look good at all. And, uh, ooh, somebody, please check on the man. Speaking of the looming government shutdown, uh, thankfully that's not going to happen. So we will get Fat Bear Week coming up from Cat My National Park. in Alaska.

They were able to get Fat Bear Jr. That contest was able to end because it ended on the 29th. And 806 Jr. won the Fat Bear Junior contest. Congratulations for 806 Spring Cup. 18,148 votes

puts her at the top of the winner of the Fat Bear Junior Week. But we have Fat Bear Week. Coming up, starting in a couple of days, we'll get the brackets, and it goes on until October 10th to see who will be the winner of Fat Bear Week, 2023. 747 was the champion last year. We'll see if 747 can pull it out again this year for Fat Bear Week. I know, exciting times, exciting times. What would you do without Fat Bear Week?

I don't know the answer to that question. I know that one catmai, I don't know, they call him the lead interpreter, which as a park ranger, so I'm not real sure if he goes out and speaks to the animals. Maybe that's why he's the lead interpreter. But he said a lot of people, well, this is a quote from him, the lead interpreter park ranger at catmai. A lot of people will be disappointed if park officials couldn't host the contest. Yeah, and we couldn't have that if we had a shutdown because they'd have to turn off the cameras,

And no one could post on the website who was winning and who was losing on the fat bear week brackets. To be honest, I'd rather have this than anything else the government does. So all hail, Fat Bear Week. And it is fun to go. You're able to go. They have the cameras up. You can go watch the bears feed and get the salmon. And it's just, you know, it's a lot of fun to watch.

So check it out. And then we'll cover the brackets and let you know who's winning Fat Bear Week here. chewing the fat. Now, you will never see me on one of these, but I always thought they looked kind of cool. There's a one or two in my, my neck of the woods that I see on the sidewalks from time to time.

And that's the one-wheel skateboard. It's the, it's made by future motion. Well, those are being recalled. Every one of them. The Consumer Product Safety Commission ordered a recall of hundreds of thousands of self-balancing skateboards. And so I guess there's been four deaths since 2019. I'm sure there's been plenty of deaths using other products as well, but four with the one motion means we've got to shut it down.

And as well, I guess there's been other injuries as well, traumatic brain injury, concussion, paralysis, upper body fractures, lower body fractures, and ligament damage. I'm betting that the same thing happens with other things as well. You know, like, I don't know, motorcycles. But, you know, no, we can't have that. So get this off the market. Okay. Now, according to this, three of the four deaths that were part of the, that were riding one wheel, were not wearing helmets.

Why is that a one wheel's fault? People aren't wearing a helmet or padding like you're supposed to, to be safe. That's not one wheel's fault, but one meal's given in. they said that apparently this is a voluntary recall and the company said all one-wheel board models can stop balancing under riders

if their limits are exceeded does that mean like there's no fat people riding them does it go too fast? Does it stop? I don't know. The Santa Cruz-California-based Future Motion issued the one-wheel recall in cooperation with the U.S. consumer product safety commission.

Well, that's nice. That's why it's voluntary. Uh-huh. Future Motion has also received dozens of reports of other serious injuries. Right. And so consumers should immediately stop using the

recalled one-wheel electric skateboards. Immediately. Wow. Uh, holy cow. So certain models, the one-wheel GT, the one-wheel pint X, the one-wheel pint, or one-wheel plus XR electric skateboards

should download or update the one-wheel app and get the haptic buzz alert functionality for their boards. That's a vibration warning that let riders know, hey, you're about ready to crash, so let's just slow this thing down a little bit. But if you have an older model, no, it's not going to work. Okay, so stop using it, throw it away. We'll give you a little, we'll give you like $100 credit

toward a purchase of a new one if you want. Now, they claim in the story that the updates will be available in the coming weeks for eligible. They don't even have an update yet. So stop using all of them immediately. And then sometime in the future, you know, you can download the haptic buzz alert functionality for your boards, which is a vibration.

I find that so silly. If I see the kids in my neighborhood that have these one wheels out riding them, I am going to shut them down. Should I call authorities? 911, yes, there's a young man out here riding a one wheel. And those have been recalled. They're not, so he's not supposed to be riding those. 300,000 of these skateboards were sold online and at independent stores from January 2014

through last month. And they went for between 1,000 and 20,000. 200 bucks wow okay so a rider safety according to one wheel is their top priority is it well yes of course it this is why we strongly encourage all riders to always wear a helmet and other protective gear while riding it does seem silly that they're responsible for what other people are supposed to be doing i will say that does sound like we're holding them accountable because other people are not accountable. And I'm not really for that.

There's a little personal responsibility should take place. But if it's doing something when their limits are exceeded, it's throwing people off of them, apparently that's an issue too. So let's go ahead and just recall those bad boys and stop using them until we get you an update.

And if you have one of the older models, yeah, good luck. Stop using it. And we'll give you a couple of bucks to maybe spend out a new one, but that's all you're getting. It's just going to be store credit. All right, let's go to the break room. I need something cold to drink.

Desperately. So good news. At least some people are going to think it's good news. Late night TV returns. Yay! Now that the strike is over, late night television is finally back. This time.

They're pissed. Probably not. Stephen Colbert, Seth Myers, Jimmy Kimmel, Fallon. So the first time that they've done their show in nearly five months, I could not have told you that they were off for five months. But I will say this, I didn't miss them. Nothing happened or didn't happen that I missed.

And that should frighten, Kobe, Myers, Kimmel, and Fallon, for sure. But, you know, shows are back. Back to normal. Striking actors can appear on the programs, but they can't promote their work. I mean, what good are the actors if they can't promote their work? Maybe they can talk politics.

That would be great. So I guess the sag after returns there at the negotiating table now, since the Writers Guild has made a deal. I saw where California governor, Gavin Newsome, he's been in the news a lot lately. Interesting how that is happening, right? now, isn't it? He vetoed a bill backed by the Writers Guild of America

and the SAG-A-A-A-TRA that would have provided unemployment benefits to workers on strike. Interesting that he vetoed that bill. I don't know the ends and outs of that bill, but it does seem that he claims, and California claims that we love writers and actors, but not enough to get unemployment benefits. Sorry. Yeah, sorry about that.

Oh, speaking of Newsom, I told you on Friday that Senator Diane Feinstein's seat would be replaced by Representative Barbara Lee, because she is African American, she is a black activist, but she's also running for Diane Feinstein's seat. Now, we come to find out that Newsom said he's not going to appoint anybody that's already running for. Feinstein's seat. So it wouldn't be, I mean, it wouldn't be Katie Porter anyway, who is a nightmare. It wouldn't be Adam Schiff, who is a nightmare. But he said he was going to nominate an African-American woman that he would do that. And so that's why I thought it would be Representative Barbara Lee. But then he, you know, threw in his disclaimer, it's not going to be someone who's running for the office already. So he picked La Fonzabwebunza Butler. Yay. I mean, when you think of a senator from California,

you think of LaFanza Buttener, don't you? I mean, I do. Congratulations to LaFonza. I think that's how you say her name. LaFonsea Butler, L-A-Butler. She is a big-time fundraiser, and she supports abortion rights. And so she's one of them.

So congratulations to Emily's List president LaFanza Butler, who will replace Diane Feinstein. And guess what? She may decide, you know, I like this. This isn't bad. I like this old Senate. See, I'm going to go ahead and run. So we'll see what happens with LaFonse. All weekend, I was hearing from you, many of you, at Chewing the Fat at theblaze.com

and at on X at Jeffrey J. and Facebook and Instagram, Jeff Fisher Radio, that it's going to be Megan Markle. He's going to replace her with Megan Markle. He's going to appoint Megan Markle. Yeah, no, that was not going to happen. First of all, now it's saying, well, no, that's what the word is, is she wants to run for Senate.

Does she? Does she? Now, I wouldn't be surprised if she reached out or her people reached out and said, Hey, Gavin, what about appointing Megan Markle? She's, you know, half African-American and would fit your bill. You said you were going to appoint someone African-American. And it's someone who isn't running for the seat, like you said, you wanted. And it would be a good move.

Even Gavin was like, yeah, no. No, that is not happening. And remember, she's not, she is not minority enough. Sorry, Megan, I know. I love you, but you're not minority enough. I see where Arnold Schwarzenegger kind of owning up to the affair with the housekeeper, he did an interview for People magazine, and he said that, yeah, you know, what are you going to do? That was just an F-up.

Yeah, you know, that's one thing led to another. Yeah, it's okay, so she had a kid named Joseph. Sure, the kid was born five days after my wife, Maria Shry. gave birth to my other son, Christopher. I was just a mess up. You know, what are you going to do? I was hanging out at the house. And I thought, you know, okay, I'll do her too.

Those are my words, not his. But he did say that, you know, I don't feel anything but love for Maria. I don't hate her. It was just a, it was just an F up on my part. You know, we always made it clear. the kids shouldn't suffer because of the affair. Uh-huh. And she has her things, her relationship.

I have mine. But we always communicate about the kids, about the holidays, about birthday parties, and Mother's Day parties, and Christmas. Do you? Do you, Arnie? I wonder if she's calling you or are you calling her, and who's in charge of that relationship?

I bet that's a fun chat. I don't wish divorce on anyone, especially with all these kids that they have, but it's just a strange way to have a relationship. And I know there's been reports that the other kids don't want anything to do with the housekeeper's son. So is that real? I don't know. It certainly would make sense that the other kids are like, yeah, No, you may be dad's son, but you are not related to us. You may have dad's blood in you, but you don't have our mom's blood, so talk to you later.

Okay, all right. And I guess they went to a marriage counseling session, which apparently did not work out well. Or maybe that's what the counseling session was for, is that we're going to go to marriage counseling and then we're going to get a divorce. Okay, that's the way it goes. So anyway, he's owned up to it. I mean, he has to, right? No question about that. And they didn't have a prenuptial agreement.

So I guess, you remember all that divorce went through with all the properties and everything that was going on? So I don't know what the housekeeper got out of all of this. I don't know what the kid got out of all of this, but just know that there's no hard feelings. Okay, it was an F up on my part. and sure, I mean, she was there, I was there. What are you going to do? 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. All right, so who died today? Who died today? The oldest lion at the Oregon Zoo has died. at the age of 16. Rest in peace. No one supports zoos more than this program or me, chewing the fat.

So I'd like to say rest in peace, Nika, the African lion, the oldest African lion at the Oregon Zoo, died following a seizure. That's what the zoo said. It was a seizure. Nika came to Portland from a Virginia Zoo in 2009. when the Oregon Zoo first opened, it's $6.8 million, two and a half acre predators

of the Serengeti exhibit after going 11 years without lions in its collection. So yeah, they opened up their big predators of the Serengeti, and they thought, you know, we should probably have a lion. So they went to the Virginia Zoo and said, hey, why don't you give us that little lion

right there? that one there. We'll call it Nika, and we'll bring it on. Okay. So now Nika gave birth in 2013 to three female cubs, so her life lives on. named Kamali, Zalika, and Angalia. The cubs were then transferred to other accredited zoos. It doesn't say what zoos they went to, though. Huh. I'm sure they know. 16 apparently is considered geriatric for a lion. Oh. Now a lot of lions, or there have been some, and the care of humans that can live to their early 20s. But not Nika. No.

It's not happening. Nika had a seizure and it was all over. Listen, Nika touched the hearts of millions of people during her life. Millions of people? Do we know? I mean, I'm all for zoos and I'm a big fan of zoos. But since 2009, we've

touched millions of people's lives. Okay. All right. I'm with you. I believe it. We hope her legacy will be one of inspiration and hope for her species. Yeah, I'm sure they can. There's not a lion in a zoo that isn't inspired by Nika, the African lion from the Oregon Zoo.

I think if you ask them, hey, what inspires you to be in this zoo today? Well, it's Nika, who died in Portland this past week. So rest in peace, Nika. the African lion, dead at the age of 16. I will say this, I've read some stories about Nika,

and they all talk about in 1970, there was a lion who mauled to death, a 19-year-old man who entered the lion exhibit after ours. It was in the, what was then, the Portland Zoo. Okay, so it's just the Oregon Zoo now, but it was the Portland Zoo back in the 70s. So a guy entered the lion exhibit, after hours, and got killed.

Well, mauled to death from the lion. Yeah, you kind of deserve that to happen. But a couple of days later, an intruder returned to the zoo and shot and killed two lions. So it wasn't, holy cow. The Portland slash Oregon Zoo has had some issues with lions. So Ciss and Caesar were shot to death by an intruder because this was after a one of them.

And I don't know which one it doesn't say in the story. I don't know if it was Ciss or Caesar who mauled the 19-year-old man to death. You shouldn't have been in there. What are you doing? That's why it says, do not enter. But now we have the predators of the Serengeti exhibit. So you're fine. It's all good.

How about that Taylor Swift show around a football game last night, huh? Yeah, Monday Night Football had Taylor Swift show up. I mean, she showed up with the A-list Entourage Man. She had Sophie Turner there, of course, you know, in the middle of her divorce with what's his face, Joe Jonas. So she's, you know, Sophie's got to be right there. I'll be able to cry quickly on Taylor's shoulders. Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds were there. Blake Lively, a little embarrassing how she continued to look at me even though Ryan was with her.

but, you know, whatever. I saw Hugh Jackman there. She had, it was all the A-listers. I mean, it was everything that NBC could do not to show Taylor Swift in that suite. Every moment. Any time that Travis Kelsey did anything, man, did they want to show Taylor up in that box? And I get it. It's just, I've had enough.

I know, I don't, whatever. It just, whatever, whatever. I want to watch some football game. And they show people up in the boxes. all the time. I get it. And it's fine. But this whole Taylor Swift thing, man, is really incredible. Now, I'm, I don't know how many times they showed her last night. I don't know.

You know, they mentioned her a bunch of times the week before. So I don't know, I mean, NBC probably beat Fox on the mentions. I know that, you know, his social media, Travis Kelsey's social media went up, merch sales skyrocketed and in the last week it was the most watch game by female fans so good luck congratulations I hope it works out for him

if it's real do I want it to be real I don't care if it's real good for them but I feel like it's probably Taylor is you know we'll be writing a song soon about what a douchebag Travis Kelsey is

and we'll just, she'll make another 100 million. I mean, she's got her movie coming out. I saw the big surprise. It was advertised during the football game. The eras to her movie, which will, you know, make her another, I don't know, $100 or $200 million. Good for her.

And congratulations. But it's just a, I found it interesting how we're such a big deal or showing up at these games. And her eras tour just ended. And now we're promoting the film. And now we're promoting the film at the games where everybody is watching because she's there. Huh. Interesting.

Isn't it? As long as we're talking about sports, I might as well talk about, oh, you thought it was going to talk about the Missouri Tigers, didn't you? Yeah, I know. M-I-Z. Z-O-U. That's right. Five-on-O Missouri Tigers ranked at least 23rd.

Did the new rankings come out? Why, yes, they did. And Missouri is ranked 21st in the top 25. So they will play LSU who dropped down to 23rd this week. Oh, wow. So we've got, I mean, we're higher ranked than LSU coming into Columbia next weekend. Big game, looking forward to it. Wow, who's number one?

Georgia is still number one. Michigan, Texas, Ohio State, Florida State are your top five. Washington is seven. No problem with Washington is that nobody sees those games out in the Pack 12 or Pack 2. and they're still seventh. I mean, they need to jump up there too. I think Washington and Oregon could be, I mean, they might be able to beat Florida State.

We'll see. I love college football, but I'm glad my Missouri Tigers are ranked. And Missouri has Florida dropped out. I'm sure they dropped out of the top 25. But we have, you know, they've got games coming up with Kentucky, who's in the top 20.

It'll be interesting. But congratulations to my Missouri Tigers. Yeah, that's right. You heard me. Missouri Tigers, M-I-Z. That's not what I wanted to talk about, though. I wanted to talk about the Summer Olympic Games in Paris. These Olympic games are still months away,

and Paris is busy putting up security measures all over, and they're cleaning out to homeless people, I would guess. But there's another issue happening. There's an outbreak of bedbugs in the city. And the social media posts are all over the place in Paris, citing critters in the public transport. The French transport minister has sought to tamp down concerns

in a statement vowing that, hey, we are fine, we are protecting our train riders. Yeah, it's not about that, French transport minister. Just, nobody wants bedbugs. Okay, we don't want them. We don't want them in the hotels. We don't want them anywhere. So if that's an issue,

if we're getting a big breakout of bedbugs, the city of Paris. That's going to be an issue during the Summer Olympic Games. So good luck. God bless. It'll be awesome. That will be awesome. If you get bedbugs at the Olympic Games,

will you be quarantined before you're able to go back home? Because I don't want any. I want our American people to be quarantined because I don't want no Paris bedbugs infiltrating the U.S. Okay. So quarantine is the answer. And congratulations are an order scientist who's, work enabled the MRNA injections against COVID win a Nobel Prize for medicine.

So congratulations to all of those scientists who whose work enabled the old MRI vaccine. We're happy about that. Are we that happy about it, though? Because I just saw a new poll that's revealed not a lot of people planning on getting the old latest COVID-19 vaccine. The results from the survey conducted by the, uh, conducted by the, uh, Kaiser Family Foundation, and who doesn't love the Kaiser Family Foundation, the KFF, that showed that

23% of U.S. adults will definitely get the updated vaccine. 23% probably get it. 33% of U.S. adults said they would definitely not get the booster, and 19% probably not get the vaccine. So I feel like the probably not. And the probably get it are really not going to get it. Because unless you're, I just feel it. So you're looking at what, 30, 56, 66, 66, 75% of the people are like, new. So 30, wow. I think that's where we're at in America right now.

And I don't know what they're going to do to try to shove it down our throats. but they're working on it. The updated shots from Pfizer-Bionatech and Moderna are recommended for everyone six months and older. Uh-huh. Those who said they would get the updated booster shot were largely comprised of adults aged 65 and older. Then it breaks them down by, you know, 64% Democrats, 70% college graduates, uh, 50% adults with chronic conditions. I got to tell you, I still think these people are some, many of these people are questionable with this.

But you know what? If you want to get the shot, it's all on you. Good luck. God bless. It's all on you. But that is really devastating to the people who want you to get the updated booster shots. I'll tell you that. That's a devastating poll from the Kaiser Family Foundation.

Not surprising to me, but I bet you it's surprising to, To those people. Boarding for flight 246 to Toronto is delayed 50 minutes. Ugh, what? Sounds like Ojo time. Play Ojo? Great idea. Feel the fun with all the latest slots in live casino games and with no wagering requirements.

Okay, did you see? That's one of my favorite stories. A 60-acre. It's not favorite because it's doing some great damage. All right, I want to put the disclaimer out there. A 60-acre Utah Wildfire was sparked by a man who told police, yeah, I was just trying to kill a spider with a lighter. Oh, okay.

Well, were you stoned? Because when we brought you down off the mountain and we went through your possessions, we found controlled substance and drug paraphernalia. So was it that you were firing up the old bonn? I know. And then you were just sitting there, you know, you was out hiking. And then you went, oh, wow, dude. Is that a spider?

We can't have a spiders out here in the wild. And it's not funny. I know, because a 60-acre wildfire is burning. And so this guy, Corey Allen Martin, was arrested for reckless burning and the possession of a controlled substance and a drug paraphernalia. The governor of Utah, Spencer Cox, said, don't do drugs, kids. don't start spiders on fire during a drought. I would say, I don't think it's a drought. I would say that just don't start burning spiders, okay?

I can see how it could happen, though, because I've told you I almost started a huge fire trying to kill a spider, and it was just by accident, and it was the luck of the draw that I didn't start a huge fire. I mean, I understand, say, You know what?

Is that a spider? I'm going to come here. And the next thing you know, and that wasn't even, you know, I wasn't even stoned. I remember coming home to my parents' house. We had gone to a football game, my oldest son's football game,

and we pulled in the driveway. And I could still see the spider web. And if it was in today's world, it would have been on Instagram Ramana would have said, hey, there's the spider web. But we pulled into the driveway with the car lights, and my folks had a lamp pole yard light in their yard. You don't see many of those anymore.

And then there was this giant bush tree off to the side of the property, at the property line. And between this giant bush tree and this and the light pole was this gigantic spider web. And you could see it when the car lights, you know, pulling the driveway and the car lights go past it. And there's this huge. spider web right there so okay so I get out and you know I was going on the house and I'm looking at this huge spider web and I'm like I want to see this spider web I can't this is

amazing so I get some spray paint and I spray paint the spider web so you can see it I told you today's world it's on Instagram that's a piece of art and then I realized you know in those days I was a smoker and so you know I have my cigarette in my hand and I thought, well, you know, I'll just, if I just put my cigarette on the old, I put my cigarette on the old spider rub, then we'll see if it burns. And, uh, my dad goes, you know, that paint you just spray down that spider was probably flammable. So it could have happened. I could have, I mean, I could have just a split second of, oh, I wonder if I put my cigarette on the spider web, what could happen?

I mean, it could have happened that easy, and it didn't. So I understand being sober or maybe, you know, you're out hiking in the mountains of Utah. And that's what you're doing out there. You're going on a little hike. You pitch your tent. And then you look up to the stars. The next thing, you know. And I love it out here.

I love hiking so much out here. Oh, is that a spider? Did he almost touch me? That's a spider, man. Come here. I'm going to get this spider. Come here, man. Come here. Come here. And the next thing you know, you've got a 60-acre wildfire. It's not funny. That's not funny at all. And he should be, he should be, you know, prosecuted because it was reckless burning. And then he had possession of a controlled substance and drug paraphernalia. And it's just not funny. So the, you know what?

The governor of Utah is correct. Don't do drugs. and don't start spiders on fire during a drought or anytime, really. All right, I'll leave you with the joke of the day. I got this.

that we did last week and the one where the lady had fallen in, gone after her Apple Watch, and I was like, I'm not going in after that. So this is the joke sent to me on Instagram. There was a guy sitting on a two-holler with a friend, and that reminds me of the two-seater, the two-holar, hilarious.

The two-seaters of the out-houses. I have seen those, and I think that's why we decided, you know, when we put bathrooms in homes, we won't make the two seers. That'll be private bathrooms. Now, I know that they did that back in the day because if you were in there and you were on it

and somebody had an emergency, they could come in and take care of their business. But to just be there with a friend, hey, you know, it's our time to go to the outhouse. Want to come? Sure, let's go. I mean, what are we girls? Anyway, okay.

stop. So anyway, there was a guy sitting on a two-huller with a friend, got up and 23 cents fell out of his pocket into the goo. And so he took $20 out of his wallet and threw it into the go. And his friend's like, wait, what are you doing? And the guy says, you don't think I'm going down there for 23 cents, do you? Think about it.
