Blaze Radio Network. And now, chewing the fat with Jeff Fisher. So I've had this headline in my head for, I don't know, since last night and it just kind of irked me. The headline is, why so many people are having strokes in their 20s, 30s, and 40s.

We've never had patients so young. Huh. Let's see. Strokes are on the rise among younger people with recent CDC report revealing a 14.6% increase among people aged 14 to 44 within the 2020 to 2022. While the alarming trend has been seen. stumping medical professionals. One expert has shared some intriguing theories.

Oh, really? I wonder what he's thinking about. Let's see. We feel that it's possible that these young adults that are having strokes in their 20s, maybe they're drinking, you know, I don't know, too many energy drinks. Sure. Okay, sure, we can say that. And, I mean, we don't know how much caffeine.

Well, we actually do know how much caffeine is in the energy drinks. I know, I know. But the reasons are not fully understood yet. Well, what else could there be? I mean, there's a rise in the traditional cerebral vascular risk factors. You know, hypertension, diabetes, high cholesterol, obesity. Uh-huh. And there's some lifestyle factors, of course, stress, long working hours, and physical and activity have also been suggested as contributing factors.

Uh-huh. And what about the caffeine? Yeah, that too. Yeah, and those energy drinks, I mean, holy cow, those things. Some of those energy drinks have 400 milligrams of caffeine per day. I mean, per can. No, some of them actually have, I want to get it right, okay? Some of the energy drinks have 200 milligrams of caffeine a can.

You're only supposed to have 400 a day, okay? So with the one can You're getting half the daily dosage That you're supposed to have But there's no clear evidence A direct link Between energy drinks and stroke Several studies have reported the risk

Of you know the hypertension And the cardiac arrhythmia Yeah you know But we just don't know what is causing these people To have strokes Huh Well you know what you know It's the Adderall

It's the Adderall that's on the rise and the ease at which it can people can get it especially with this damn telehealth and people having access to health care physicians that are just

writing those adterol prescriptions huh yeah so maybe it's that we don't know we're guessing though it's funny that throughout this entire story not one mention of that

not one mention could it possibly be that could it we're looking into it being that nope no mention of that whatsoever you know what it's it's got to be the energy drinks or the adderol oh okay what about that oh wait we didn't even mention that it just drives me insane

at least I thought we were at a point now where we're going to at least admit that it could possibly be that What was I thinking? Welcome. Welcome to chewing the fat. I was just given some amazing news. All right.

So if you're listening live, today is the 4th of June 2025. So coming up July 30th of this year, almost two months from now, William Shatner is going to be live on stage in DFW. Okay. we've got to get William Shatner on the show. He's going to be in town. They're doing this Star Trek to the wrath of con filming. Then he's doing a question and answer thing.

It's going to be live on stage. And it'll be fun. It's going to be at the AT&T Performing Arts Center, the Texas Theater, and Mills Entertainment present William Shatner live on stage. You can get tickets available now. And I've got to talk to William Shatner. Now I'd like to have him in studio. But if he's hawking this event,

Right? We're going to talk. We've got to talk to him before. Now, obviously he's, I mean, come on now, he's William Shatner. There's a lot to talk about. This man has been a TV star for a long time. But we most definitely have to talk to him about his trip to space. I mean, who can forget William Shatner live in space? God. Weightlessness. Oh, Jesus. Carmen Line Okay No description All right stop I don't know that I'm going to play it for William this way But I mean

I don't think that I can listen to William Shatner In space Without listening to it under You know Music Weightlessness Oh Jesus Carmar line.

Yes. No description. Can equal this. Oh, weightlessness. This is nuts. Oh, my God. Have you think Bill would be pissed? Or where do you go with it?

Oh, I'm telling you. Holy hell. Oh, my goodness me. Oh, goodness me. Oh. Oh, wow. I can't believe this. Oh, okay.

We have to play that for me. I have to. It would be a go against everything in me to have William Shatner. Okay, here's the deal. If he comes in studio, if I can get William Shadder in studio, we'll do it. We'll do that. If he's on the phone and just hawk in the event, that's kind of tough to do. We won't get the bit.

You won't understand it. He's like 100 now. We won't understand it. but so if he's in studio if I can get him in studio we go william shatner right here in the chewing the fat studios here at mercury studios and dfdb come on now we will do it I promise you so that that has to happen right

right I will never forget seeing that live and all I could hear was the porn music underneath it never I'll never forget it never because all I could hear the entire time what then it was happening live in front of me. I'm at my house going, oh my gosh, where's the porn music? I had to wait until the next morning to do it live on the show. I just had to, I couldn't wait hardly. That's all I could hear in my head. So we definitely, if you know Bill, hello. Tell him, tell him he needs to be on. He needs to be on chewing the fat. We need William Shatner

on this program. If you don't know Bill, we'll go ahead and reach out to him anyway and let him know he needs to be out in the show. Okay. Okay, so it's that that time of year again that we're finding out what CEOs make for all these companies. And, you know, we had the big news that Elon Musk was the lowest paid

CEO of an S&P 500 company. Tesla paid him $0.00. And Elon responded on X by saying, zero for seven years, despite increasing the value of the company 2,000%.

And so, I mean, it's an argument of what, you know, is what you pay CEOs worth it, right? I mean, there was just a big story about the Warner Brothers Discovery shareholders meeting that voted down the pay increase of their CEO. So their stockholders meeting had the investors vote down a non, this is key, non-binding advisory to a measure to approve the compensation package for, is. Zazlap and the company's other named executive officers according to the SEC filing. So it's referred to as a say on pay vote designed to give shareholders a voice in expressing their approval or disapproval of exec compensation. Well, they reported the tallies and there were 724.5 million shares voted for the executive compensation package.

and there were 1.06 billion shares voted against the measure, meaning almost 60% of the votes cast were against the pay packages. In addition, there were 5.69 million shares that did not vote, those people who didn't care, the absenteeism, and there were other broker non-votes that are all part of the deal. So Zazlov's pay package rose for last year rose 4.4%. He made $51.9 million. that's a good

year. So according to the company's latest proxy statement his base salary was only 3 million I say only 3 million and he received

stock rewards of 23.1 million and then he had a bonus compensation of 23.9 million. That's a nice bonus. 23.9 million? Yeah. And then there was some

other compensation nuggets in there for a little over a million. You know, just he probably spits on that. That's taken people lunch, stuff like that. So,

now they, of course, they voted against him, making that much again. That's a non-binding vote. So that's probably not going to happen. We'll pay him what we want. So the other Warner Brothers' Discovery's top executive, the CFO,

Gunner O. Edenville, makes $17 million. And he's made that for the last couple of years. So he hasn't even gotten a raise in the last couple of years. How is he getting by? on just $17 million a year. Ouch.

Exactly. The chief revenue and strategy officer, Bruce Campbell, 19.8 million, up 8% from the year before. Global streaming and games CEO and president J.B. Perrette, 19.7 million.

And that's down a couple of percent. And the international president made 14.8 million. So those, I mean, maybe they cut they cut a couple million off of those guys to appease the

you know the shareholder vote well we cut them down you were right we were paying them too much but there's no way as well as well taking a pay cut sorry that's not going to happen if it does they'll decrease his base salary which it was 3 million right

so they'll say you know what you're right we're only going to pay him two million dollars a year base salary stock options are still going to be 20 or 30 million still going to have that little executive bonus in there for 10 million and you know those little expenditures yeah those are going to be

for another million on that as well I mean holy cow it's just it's they're worth it I'm not saying it's not worth it I'm just saying that's a lot of money you make a 50 million dollars a year that's that's a lot of money you can quote me on that that is a lot of money now I was looking at some of the other CEOs

what they make. So the number one, highest paid CEO, Axon Enterprises, Rick Smith. And you don't know who Rick is? If you saw him, you'd go,

oh, yeah, that guy. I saw his face behind a limo glass not long ago. He made $164.53 million. That's, of course,

with Stock Awards, and other little incentives in there. But it all worked out to be $164.53 million. Then number two, you have Lawrence Culpe Jr. And I love Larry at GE Aerospace. He pulled in $88.95 million, earning the number two slot. Wow, good for him.

Stephen Schwartzman from Blackstone. Wow, he's in third place. He's got to bump up a little bit. He only made $84.3 million. Wow. Tim Cook, Apple. Everybody knows Tim Apple. Number four on the list.

Tim brought home $74.61 million. What a bum. What a bum. Number five, Joseph Bay, from KKR. he is a co-CEO okay so his package was uh oh no i'm sorry his payment was a 73.09 million dollars although he's co-ceeo does it does it say what is that the other ningoberry got paid as much uh david getlin k kkhar co-ceo um son i'm a gentleman john town town highs but yeah he's in there yeah it doesn't say exactly how much but it It says business leaders that made up the rest of the 10 highest paid S&P 500 CEOs,

Carrier Global CEO, David Gittlin, KKR, co-CEO, Scott Nuttall, so he either made as much or right around that same $78.9 million. Netflix, co-CEO, Ted Sarandos, yeah, I mean, and Simon Property Group. Simon Property Group, how much money I want it, I'd like to see that. Because those guys are hurting. They've been selling property and cut it, losing. losing jobs all over the world. But hey, I'm sure he's fine.

He's doing a fine job, keeping that company afloat, making 50, 60, 70 million, if they're in the top 10, and the fifth guy is 73.9. So the next five are going to be somewhere between 50 and 70 million. That's good pay wage. That's good pay wage.

So I know you people that voted for the Warner Brothers CEO, and all their helpers to not make their pay. Ha, that's cute of you. That's real cute of you. Boarding for flight 246 to Toronto is delayed 50 minutes. Ugh, what? Sounds like Ojo time. Play Ojo? Great idea.

the truck carrying these bees crashed I don't know how the truck crashed I don't know what happened I just know it was hauling all these bees and then it overturned Ouch more than out I mean there were bees everywhere

where. And they've been busy. I know they were busy trying to clean them up. They said that 70,000 pounds of honeybee hives on board came off the truck unleashing all the bees. So, which they claimed $250 million. I don't know. It might have been

$250 million and one. Might have been $249,999. I don't know. But they wanted to, at the time, this was a couple of days ago, they told people to avoid the area, due to potential of bee escape and swarming. Yes, no problem.

Now, master beekeepers showed up to help out because that's what beekeepers do. Oh, there's a problem? Yeah, I'll show up. And they helped out. And what the plan was is to rehive and, you know, find the queen bee. So they were put the boxes out and they were going to give them a couple of days to show up and find their queen.

And the goal was to get. as many bees back as possible. So I haven't seen a report how they're doing with the bees, but they were telling people at least, and they said 24 to 48 hours. So this happened a couple of, and I think it happened on the first,

which was Sunday. So this is Wednesday, if you're listening live, so should have, that's more than 48 hours. So hopefully, hopefully they've got this taken care of. There was no word on the, crash. It looks weird how it crashed.

So did the driver, I'm not blaming the truck driver. I'm not going to do it. It's not the truck driver's fault. Someone swerved in front of him, something. And so, thank you to all the beekeepers that showed up to rescue the pollinating honeybees. We appreciate

everything you, you beekeepers do whenever you do it. But be careful up there in Washington. This is not the only story. You know, I was I was going to go one of two ways after this story in my head. I was going to tell you about the elephant, the Thai elephant that's ravaging the neighbor.

Deciding that it's going to go in stores and break everything. And it owns this city is really. This elephant just owns the city. And it walks along the street. And then when it wants something, it just takes it. And people are like, oh, okay. Ah, ha, ha, ha, ha. So this elephant, I guess it's a wild element,

elephant from the national park in northeastern Thailand and yeah it just shows up it goes off the trail and it just wanders along the street and then it says oh there's a grocery store I guess I'll go in are you stopping the elephant from going into the grocery store no you are not

and are you going to stop the elephant named Plybinglich P-L-A-I-B-A-N-G-G-L-E-K P-E-L-E-K Amorpha-Falus Exactly I don't know that they call him that but I would. And he just shows up and starts eating things and destroying things because, well, he can't.

So I don't know how long they're going to let Ply-Bang-Legh wander around this town and snack on what he wants. But that needs to happen soon. Somebody needs to remind the old Ply-Bang-Lek that, uh, hello, you are an elephant, we are humans. We'll put you down. Yeah, we'll put you down. But not yet.

They're not letting that happen now. And the shops are, I guess, okay with it saying, yeah, it would just, I mean, once he comes in your store, what are you going to do? Yeah, I mean, that's, you're going to take pictures and hopefully people will show up your store and buy goods from the store that the elephant goes to best you could do. So, but the whole time that I'm doing the Washington B story, and I'm telling you about it, all I can think of is this horrible story out of Washington. It's just horrible.

And I was reading it last night, and I sat on my back porch last night, reading this story, wondering how does someone go on from this? I mean, it's just horrible. And I mean this sincerely. So this is in Wenatchi, Wenatchee, W-N-A-T-C-H-E-E-W-N-E-W-N-A-T-C-H-E, Washington. Amorphophalus.

No, it's not how they pronounce it. But it's in Washington and the B's story, as I'm telling you, I'm thinking about this story. And the couple is divorced. The dad is homeless. He has visitation rights of the kids. Three daughters. He goes and gets them, doesn't come back.

The mom says that she was worried about the safety of the girls and the guy. They put out an amber alert. Now they're looking for him for murder. They found, I mean, he, someone, they're assuming the dad, killed these three little girls. And it's just, I mean, so now the mom, you know, I mean, she's got the ex-husband,

someone you loved that she had children with on the run. I guess apparently there was, you know, mental issues. Really? there were some serious mental issues going on, but she said she never thought that it would bleed into affecting how he treated their daughters.

Well, it did. And these three beautiful girls, nine, eight, and five. And I stood and looked at their picture and thought, I don't know how, I mean, just this woman needs your,

if you pray, pray for them. if you do nice thoughts do nice thoughts for him them um the decker sisters uh do some nice thoughts for their mom now you can pray for Travis Decker the dad um

or you can pray for Whitney Decker the mom because really for me I would say uh the mom uh the dad is out of his mind and on the run I don't know how you I just

I don't even know why I'm talking to you about it because I don't know how someone goes on from not only losing a husband now and will he probably is he going to kill himself probably

either by his own hand or by police on the run and now you have you three beautiful daughters gone just horrible but that's all I was thinking about when I was doing the stupid B story

was my point and I know just stop looking at me like that let's go to the break room and we'll move on I don't want to drink no although

although all right fine let's go to the break room and if that's what you're serving that's what we'll have so just It's been five years since the George Floyd riots turned Minneapolis upside down, and really the country. Well, right now, Blaze TV just dropped an explosive investigation, and you need to see it.

These guys were on the front lines when the third precinct was abandoned and burned. They're still on the job, still in uniform, and what they reveal about Derek Chauvin and Governor Tim Wals and the breakdown of law and order in that city is absolutely jaw-dropping. They say Chauvin was railroaded. Yeah, we saw that. Walls completely failed him.

We have all been Rick rolled. So Rick Ashley, apparently they're saying is getting the last laugh. Ah! So this is 1987. 1987 is when never going to give you up came out. Wow.

he is never going to give you off baby never this might get the Rolling Stones Rolling Stones out of my head so okay I can't do the whole thing I just I can't I can't I can't no I can't I can't I can't do the whole thing

I let you get to the chorus I just I can't I don't know that it's going to get the stone songs out of my head because I told you remember the last song on Mobland this week for the season finale was sympathy for the devil

the last song on your friends and neighbors was a give me shelter which one of probably one of my favorite songs by the Stones all time. But both songs were awesome. I put the stones both songs in my stupid head. And I don't think being Rick rolled

is going to take the stones away. And I see where Stranger Things, season 5, is announced as the final season. Duh. It's about time. It's called Stranger Things Nursing Home. They're all adult now grown.

So it's the final season. Releasing in three parts. All right. I know. I didn't do this. Okay, this is Netflix, not me. So you get four episodes on November 26. Then you get three episodes on Christmas Day.

Watch it. Do what you do. don't try to be cute with your little hey we've got the NFL and now we're doing four episodes here and two episodes here and the finale here and hey what do what you do

just release the stupid shows all right I made it through did I talk about on Monday I think I did I made it through department Q this weekend I need something new I know, I know. Maybe I could sit through the Ken Burns

Leonardo da Vinci documentary. So Ken Burns is exploring the life and genius of Leonardo da Vinci in his first non-American documentary, a two-part PBS special. When is Ken going to win? When can I watch this? that. I know it's been out for a while, but I haven't had an opportunity to sit through four

hours of a Ken Burns two-part documentary on Leonardo da Vinci, which I'm sure is, I know, I know. Leonardo is there, and I might get there sitting through that stupid thing. It might be worth it. They say it's nice. I mean, he brought the whole damn family, and I was reading a story about it at one point, And it was talking about how his wife was co-directing and his daughter and son-in-law were there helping with the editing

and they all moved to Florence, Italy, as they were preparing for the documentary. I mean, so wonderful that the family got together. We could be a family and we could make documentaries, you know, that never end. And I get paid for it. And so we all make a little money from it. Good for him. Actually, good for Ken Burns on that.

But am I going to sit down? through that this weekend. Dude, we can start Kevin Burns, Leonardo Da Vinci. Go ahead. Let's put it on. Do we have it? Yeah, it's right there. It's hockey season, and you can get

Who died today? Well, let's begin with Shigeo Nagasima. What'd you call me? Shiguel Nagasima. Once voted Japan's most famous sports stars has died at the age of. 89. They said he had pneumonia at a hospital in Tokyo

and he didn't pull through. So he was, I mean, this guy was awesome to Japanese baseball. Nine straight titles with the team in the 60s and 70s played 2,186 games hitting 444 home runs. He was the guy.

He was the man. Banzai! Banzai! Banzai! I don't know that they were I don't know that they were cheering that. But rest in peace to Shigio Nagoshima,

dead at the age of 89. Banzai! Banzai! Banzai! Pretty sure they weren't doing that. Also, I saw where this college soccer player, Chase Stiegle,

has passed away at the age of 20, and it doesn't say what killed him. He was in the dorms. I mean, we can just assume what probably killed him. But the story, which fascinated me about it, okay? So I'm sad that this, I'm very sad this young man died. He had a great future ahead of him. So whatever happened to him, you know, I'm sad that it happened to him.

But this whole story is actually about his dad. I mean, the kid's dad was a former NFL player. Played in the Canadian Football League, big star on the Canadian Football League, never quite made it to a big level in the NFL, but he played in the NFL. and so the whole story is about his dad, former wide receiver in a CFL Hall of favor, Milton Stigle. His son died. And it talks about how he was a rising star in soccer

and I'm very sad that he died at DePaul University. They was in the dorms and they found him dead. And there was no, nobody listed anything. What happened? So, okay, all right, fine, no problem. So rest in peace to Casey. Casey, no, it's

I gotta do that again. Did I call, what did I call him first off? Okay, all right, so I'm gonna edit that, I'm gonna start that with rest and peace. So rest and peace to Chase Stagall. Chase Stegal.

I know that you're the son of Milton, but, you know, you mattered too, Chase. Dead, dead at the age of 20. Very sad. Then I saw a story where two people, died and 500 were arrested in France during these soccer celebrations. So it doesn't name the people that died, but I guess they were part of the celebration

crowd. And you think to yourself, ah, it's France. And it's soccer. Ah, that's fine. You know, today starts the pilgrimage to Mecca. You know, in Saudi Arabia, go to the Hage or the Hage or whatever they, however they, pronounce it. Hage.

Oh, you're working today. So it's Hage. Hage. Yeah. Be careful there because they trample people all every year at the... Hage. Yeah. So just be careful because you're on your way to Mecca and I don't want any bad things to happen there.

But it's possible that it has... Oh, another thing that has died is the Blake Lively case against Beldoni. I know. I thought, I know I was looking forward to it too, but a judge said, yeah, you know what, this is going to be history. We're done with it. So, Beldoni was filing a motion. He wanted to compel Blake to turn over all her medical records.

And Blake was not having any of that. So now she's saying that she's going to withdraw her complaints. So, okay, I guess it's over. I guess the case is dead now, right? I guess. Yeah, so we'll see what happens between the Baldoni Blake Lively case. That was quite the little back and forth. it kind of hurt me.

You know, because Blake is, the way she's looked at me over the years and it's just been embarrassing. And I try to tell her, don't, Blake, stop looking at me like that. It's embarrassing. But she won't,

she, he continues to look at me like that. And I just didn't want her all tied up in this. This is all murky and messy and it just isn't, isn't her style. But maybe it is. And remember, we still have the wildfires going on

and the Saharan dust. coming across so if you're experiencing irritated eyes and nose and throat you end up sounding yeah it's probably because of the wildfires and it could be because of the Saharan dust we don't know we don't know just we know that

there were a couple hundred over a couple hundred wildfires in Canada and over a hundred of them were listed as out of control. So that was, smoke was supposed to be coming into the U.S., the northern states, Minnesota, Michigan, and it was supposed to come down into Texas across the Midwest.

And then we have the Sahara dust coming across the Atlantic into the, yeah, yeah. I mean, it's definitely that. So air quality is crazy. I bet you air quality in the upper, Peninsula, you know, up here, not the lower peninsula, but the lower peninsula is probably hitting a little bit of that smoke, but the upper peninsula. I mean, that's darn near Canada.

So it's on fire as well. And so just be careful. Be careful when you go outside up there because, yeah, running around coughing and blowing your crap on everybody. Nobody wants that.

So congratulations to the 54-year-old Lieutenant Daniel Chala. from a Miami-Day deputy who had all charges dropped against him. It's over. The case is over.

He apparently met this person at a club about a month ago and brought this person home. Now, he thought the person was a female. But the person wasn't a female. The person was a male who was dressed up like a woman. And apparently they started kissing. and then he realized, hey, you're not a woman, and he kicked her out. Now, originally they said that he punched her and beat her up and they, you know,

charged with assault and all that stuff against a transgender woman. But he said, no, I didn't. That didn't happen. And so now the case, the charges are dropped. He was on leave, administrative leave. for the Sheriff's Department and so now I don't know what happens to him I don't know if he goes back

because it said that the person who he was with and kicked out of his apartment or home wasn't going to press charges and did not want to have anything to do with anything to do with it so is this person now being intimidated

from the Sheriff's Department like no you're not going to press charges you're not going to do this get the hell out of here? Or is it for real? And it's a tough one. I would like to believe that it's real. That this person

is just not going to press charges because what she said in the heat of the battle, you know, was not true. He didn't attack her. And they were both under the influence. And things got out of hand and then he kicked me out. And I was pissed. So I complained and had him arrested.

And now I'm, you know, I'm not mad anymore. And I realize I don't want anything to do with it and I just want to move on with my life. Or is it the sheriff's department saying, you are not going to be testifying against this deputy sheriff. That is not going to happen.

So he's already off now. I mean, he wasn't on duty when this happened. And then he was on some kind of administrative leave suspension, whatever it was, while this case was ongoing. So does he go back to being a deputy sheriff? Does he retire? Does he have a nice day? Take care.

Go be a cop in some other Florida County. Not Miami-Dade. I don't know. But I found it interesting that I know. I found out that he was a man and get the hell out of here. Dude, where are you partying at? And this person must have looked good. Must have looked good.

So, you know. Maybe you Give it a shot I don't know You're already there All right Let's get out here I told you I was going to do

And they all made me laugh. So this is a fair joke number three. A mortician was working late one night. He examined the body of Mr. Swartz about to be cremated and made a startling discovery. Swartz had the largest private part he had ever seen. I'm sorry, Mr. Swartz, the mortician commented. I can't allow you to be cremated with such an impressive private part. Yeah, it happens to the best.

It must be saved for posterity. So he removed it, stuffed it in his briefcase, and took it home. And he said to his wife, I have something to show you, you won't believe. And he opened up his briefcase. And his wife, oh my God, Swartz is dead. Okay, this is joke number four from Allison. That's good. A woman was in bed with her lover when she heard her husband opening the front door.

Hurry, she said. Stand in the corner and she rubbed baby oil all over him and then she dusted him with talcum powder. Don't move until I tell you. Pretend you're a statue. What's this? The husband inquired as he entered the room. Oh, it's a statue. The Smith bought one and I liked it, so I got one for us too. No more was said.

Not even when they went to bed. Around 2 a.m., the husband got up, went to the kitchen. and returned with a sandwich and a beer. Here, he said to the statue, have this. I stood like that two days at the Smiths and nobody offered me a damn thing. See, because...
