Starting point is 00:00:00 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. What you win is yours to keep groovy. Hey, I won! Boating will begin when passenger fisher is done celebrating.
Starting point is 00:00:22 19 plus Ontario only. Please play responsibly. Concerned by your gambling or that if someone close, you call 1866-3-3-1-2-600 or visit comexonterio.ca. Blaze Radio Network And now, chewing the fat with Jeff Fisher. We know that more than 500 company-owned Starbucks cafes have voted to unionize under Workers United since the first elections that took place in Buffalo three years ago. Now, we know today that Workers United said that they have taken a vote
Starting point is 00:00:57 and they are authorized to strike. I don't know when this is going to happen. So if you're out shopping for Christmas and plan on stopping by a Starbucks, maybe it won't be open because the workers will be on strike or you'll have to cross over a picket line to get your French vanilla cappuccino,
Starting point is 00:01:16 which I'm willing to do. If I'm out and I want a French vanilla cappuccino, I'm crossing the picket line. Just give me my Frenchman. vanilla cabuccino that's all I want. I hope you get the money that you want. They're pissed that the CEO is making all this money and they're not. They want a collective bargaining agreement with, of course, more money and more benefits
Starting point is 00:01:41 for their baristas. So we'll see if there's a path forward without a strike because we want to have a constructive path forward. But be ready to cross the picket line for your Starbucks coffee or, you know, maybe you just say, I won't go to Starbucks, and I'll go to Duncan and get my coffee, which is very possible. And so it's not every Starbucks store that could go on strike, but I'm sure that it will affect plenty of people around the country. So be ready to cross the picket line if you want your Starbucks real soon, because it doesn't sound like there is a constructive path forward
Starting point is 00:02:22 as of today. Welcome. Welcome to chewing the fat. I love the game of chess, and I don't play it enough, but I do love the game of chess, and I've played it forever. And it's now making history by joining the e-sports World Cup, the E-WC, 2025. So it's the world's largest gaming e-sports festival. The event is taking place from July 31st to August 3rd in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. man, there's no place you'd rather be. At the end of July,
Starting point is 00:03:04 in the beginning of August, is Rihanna, South Saudi Arabia. So it's going to feature top chess players competing for a $1.5 million prize pool. And so this partnership was announced by Chess.com and GM Magnus Carlson in collaboration with E-sports World Cup Foundation, the EWCF.
Starting point is 00:03:26 And it marks a significant milestone, according to Magnus. that chess now is beginning to show its face to a new generation of e-sports enthusiasts. Chess, the mother of all strategy games, is perfect fit for our mission to unite the world's most popular games and their passionate communities. Now, that wasn't Magnus. That was Ralph Riker, the CEO of EWCF. And so we've got that going for us.
Starting point is 00:03:59 I'm ready to rock and roll. I may have to enter for a chance at $1.5 million. Now, that's a prize package. So, you know, you'd be coming in second place. You can get $10. Get out of here. Thanks for coming to Saudi Arabia. But it will be fun to watch these games.
Starting point is 00:04:15 I mean, it's not that big of a fan participation sport. We're not building stadiums around tables that where people are playing chess.

Okay, you listeners to Chewing the Fat in Florida, just want to give you a heads up, okay? You're going to lose access to Pornhub after the first of the year. I know, I didn't have anything to do with it. apparently there's age verification law that goes into effect in Florida and porn hub is unhappy about that
Starting point is 00:11:43 and they are going to pull the plug and they're not going to they're not going to give floridians access to porn hub so dry your eyes according to porn hub they say that uh you will be required to prove you are 18 years or older such as by uploading your government ID for every adult content website you'd like to access. We don't want miners accessing our site and think preventing that from happening is a good thing. But putting everybody's privacy at risk won't achieve that. I kind of agree with that. They are curious about the right solution. We encourage you to learn more about device-based verification solutions that make the internet safer for all, especially children, while also respecting your privacy.
Starting point is 00:12:36 So they give a link here that you can find out about age-based, I'm sorry, device-based verification solutions. So you can do that. You can write your state senator. You can write your governor, Governor DeSantis. I'm sure he'll read every letter that you sent to him. But just know that if you live in Florida, you will lose access to porn hub. with a Florida VPN.
Starting point is 00:13:03 Now, if you're, you know, can access a VPN outside of Florida, then you can access Pornhub through that. I'm not telling you to do that. I'm just saying that, you know, that's a way that you could possibly access Pornhub in Florida after the first of the year. You can always let me know
Starting point is 00:13:21 how that's working out for you at Jeffrey JFR on X. You can follow me on Facebook and Instagram, Jeff Fisher Radio. you can follow me on my YouTube channel Chewing the Fat with Jeff Fisher. You can follow me on my Cameo channel at Jeffie JFR on Cameo. Although I don't do too much on Cameo except, you know, you can order a cameo at Jeffrey JFR on my cameo site. That, of course, is not free.
Starting point is 00:13:49 But you could do that as well. And you can order a cameo and, you know, I can tell you, you know, how bad your life is going to be without Pornhub. I know. I know. Oh, it's not going to be bad without pouring up? Okay, good. Good. I'm glad to hear that.
Starting point is 00:14:05 You can get all your viewing in, though, before the first of the year, then you're good to go. Probably, you know, not a bad idea to maybe, you know, try to give up porn for a little while. Don't look at me like that. I'm just, I'm not saying you should, but I'm saying that, you know, maybe some people make the case that it's better for you without,
Starting point is 00:14:24 without that stuff in your, in your world. Nah, I'm not telling you that it is. I'm just saying some people make that case.

Starting point is 00:15:38 the spec program properly. Remember yesterday we talked about Helen Helen Hadsell and she had created a formula for people to win things or make things happen. And so
Starting point is 00:15:54 she wrote a book and she had a formula called spec. Select it, project it, project it, expect it, collect it. So I selected it yesterday with the Mega Millions lotto. I projected it and then I expected it, but I'm not collecting it. Because no one won, sadly, the Mega Millions now goes up to $825 million for the jackpot, $382.2 million cash payout.
Starting point is 00:16:26 That drawing will be held the 20th of this month, which is Friday. Friday night. So it'd be a sweet Christmas to win $825 million jackpot. So I'm going to rethink my plan and rethink Helen's plan. And I'm going to select it, project it, expect it, and collect it. So this, maybe I can try it with the powerball tonight, which is $69 million. I mean, I'd rather have the $800 million. But, you know, the $69 million I'll deal with, which is $32.2 million cash pay. So I'm going to give it another shot. I'm going to select it. I'm going to project it. I'm going to expect it. And then hopefully I'll be able to collect it. All right, let's go to the break room.
Starting point is 00:17:10 I need something cold to drink desperately. Everyone should be empowered to care for themselves and their loved ones during the unexpected. Don't, don't be caught unprepared. And one way that helps you. be prepared during the unexpected is having a Jace case. Go to Jace.com and get yourself a Jace case. It provides five life-saving antibiotics for emergency use. All it takes to get a Jace case is you fill out a simple form online.
Starting point is 00:17:52 They want to make sure that you're not allergic to any of the medications. And then they ship it right to your house. Now, you can also, you know, you can get Ivermectin and epipans and many other add-ons. options with the Jace case. In fact, they just launched an all-new compound version of Ivermectin for only $30 as an add-on with your Jace case. Look, the U.S. relies on China for over 80% of its generic medication. So preparing now is the only recourse we have in case something happens to that critical
Starting point is 00:18:26 supply chain. And it could. It's very possible that it happens. You need a Jace case just in case. Oh my gosh. See how that works? A Jace case just in case. Go to jace.com.
Starting point is 00:18:44 Jace.com. And at the checkout, you can put in the offer code Jaffe. Get a discount on your order. promo code J-E-F-F-Y at J-A-S-E-S-E-S-E.com. Jace.com. Well, it's finally over. Yellowstone has done the original mainstay mother ship
Starting point is 00:19:05 Yellowstone is over they finished it off this weekend and I don't know it was okay I mean I get what how they ended it it seemed there was one big fight scene
Starting point is 00:19:20 that seemed like unnecessary I know that I don't know it just felt weird and I know it was the closing you know the finale watched all the episodes it was really good building up to the last episode and the last episode just felt like,
Starting point is 00:19:35 all right, we're done. Let's wrap it up. We'll give you a fight scene. And you knew that we were going to make one more trip to the train station before the shows end. And we're done. Have a nice day. I will say, good move with all these shows
Starting point is 00:19:50 that Taylor Sheridan is doing. And I think we may have talked about this before, but Taylor is not only producing and directing these shows and writing these shows, he's now acting. every one of his shows. So now he's getting money from the writing, from the producing, from the directing, the acting, and a lot of the shows end up having scenes on his ranches
Starting point is 00:20:15 that he owns. So he's getting money from that. So that's a good move on Taylor's part. That is a really, really good move on Taylor Sheridan's part. Anyway, back to Yellowstone. I, you know, I just feel like I let's sad to see it go for one thing. you know, Kevin Costner was the, you know, was the anchor of that. And he was done with it. And he and Taylor, you know, had their, had their unhappiness with each other. And then, you know, so it was over. It was done.
Starting point is 00:20:50 And Kevin wasn't there for this last season. We kept, you know, going back to him. And you only saw him, I think, the first episode where we showed clips of him. And the rest of the time it was just mentioned on it. So, you know, it's over. It's done. Yellowstone is done. So now we move down. We've got the new 1923 second season coming out in February. The first season of 1923 was awesome. And I guess there's some other Yellowstone spinoffs coming. And I know Rip and Beth have already signed on to do one of the spinoffs from Yellowstone that's coming. I don't think it had a name yet. But they've already signed on. I don't know if it hasn't been announced that any of the others, from the original Yellowstone has signed down, I've signed down to do any of these offshoots.
Starting point is 00:21:39 So, you know, another thing that happened in that finale that really kind of ticked me off. So they end up, this is a spoiler alert. I won't give you the whole spoiler alert. Just know that at one point in time, a group of young Indians from the tribe, the local tribes,
Starting point is 00:21:58 go to where all the dutons are buried and start tipping over the graves. And then the one second in command of the Indian tribe comes and hollers at them and tells them to stop and these people gave their lives for this land. And so then he runs them off. And he ends up, you know, being the one picking up the gravestones. He should have made those kids do it. He should have stood there. And while they were lifting up the gravestones back to where they were, he should have told them the story about this.
Starting point is 00:22:33 land and how these people gave their life for this land as well and now it's back with us. Oh, that's part of the spoiler alert. Anyway, it was just the whole thing just kind of I mean, I'm sad to see it go, but I just feel like that final episode
Starting point is 00:22:53 could have been better. But they didn't discuss it with me. Taylor, for some reason, did not call me. And so I didn't have an opportunity to tell him, uh, no. Let's, uh, do that, huh, Taylor? We also got the news that, uh, the old man, uh, with Jeff Bridges on FX has been canceled
Starting point is 00:23:14 after season two. Yeah, that doesn't surprise me. Uh, season two was, uh, eh, it was okay. Uh, and that, so I, I think people, uh, realized that, uh, season two was, uh, and that was the season that the daughter, it pissed me off the whole season. She was pregnant. I know she was. I got, I got, I got, I got to go.
Starting point is 00:23:33 go back and find that. She was pregnant, but all the scenes shot with her, and it's okay, I'm not mad that she's pregnant. Good for her. Happy for her. I hope she has a wonderful child and she loves it and all that stuff. But the show was shot where she wouldn't have been pregnant. So they had to do these different angles
Starting point is 00:23:50 and different shots, and it just was annoying to me. That was all. I know. It was just me. And then a bad monkey, which I loved on Apple, has been renewed for season two with Vince Vaugh. season one was great, but apparently, according to this, they're going to move production to L.A. Now, the show was based in Miami and the Florida Keys.
Starting point is 00:24:17 Now, I don't know if the show itself is going to be now based in Los Angeles. If that's the case, it changes a few things. But okay, that's fine. I like Bad Monkey, and I'm sure Vince will do a, you know, do a good job on season two, at least, you know, I hope you will. And I was going through the list of some of the shows that have been canceled and renewed for next year. And good news for everyone.
Starting point is 00:24:42 And I know you might want to, I mean, you're probably going to start crying. And so I want you to get your, you know, get a tissue out. The Kelly Clarkson show has been renewed for season seven. So I know. I know. So that's good news for Kelly Clarkson show. that's being renewed for season seven.
Starting point is 00:25:06 And many of you have been bugging me about the 2025 SAG Awards. And so here you go. I'm going to let you know that Kristen Bell is going to host the 2025 Screen Actors Guild Awards. So congratulations to Christian Bell is going to be the host of the SAG Awards. Man, I can't wait for the SAG Awards. apparently they're going to stream live on Netflix Sunday, February 23rd. So you have that to look forward to. We don't even have the nominees out for the 2025 SAG Awards.
Starting point is 00:25:42 Those are going to be announced first part of January, I think January 8th. So then we have to wait until February 23rd for the awards show ceremony, fun on Netflix. So that'll be fun, right? No, really, it'll be fun. It's hockey season, and you can get anything you need delivered with Uber Eats. Well, almost, almost anything.

Starting point is 00:26:42 Please enjoy responsibly. Product availability varies by region. See app for details. Who died today? Who died today? Well, we're going to begin with Diane Delano. Diane Delano, dead at the age of 67. Very sad.
Starting point is 00:27:01 Very, very, very sad. She had struggled with cancer. It doesn't say for how long, but it doesn't matter for how long because if you have cancer, you're definitely struggling with it. When you see her, you go, oh, yeah, her. She was in Northern Exposure, the TV show, which I loved that show. She was the cop in Northern Exposure for many of the episodes. She's been in all kinds of shows, you know, L.A. Law, Falken Crest.
Starting point is 00:27:34 God, I love Falken Crest, not really. Cop Rock, Step by Step, Third Rock from the Sun, six feet under, Cold Case, the Bridge. She's been in Hollywood for a long time. And she's done a lot of great shows. She also was the voice in some animated shows that were awesome. And so, I mean, she had 40 years plus in Hollywood. And she was in a lot of movies and a lot of animation stuff. She recorded and provided the voice for Big Barta and Batman.
Starting point is 00:28:07 And there was another, a couple other animated series that she was part of. Very sad. And I really enjoyed her work. Diane Delano. dead at the age of 67. Then we have this story. The man's name is Lester Clayton Harvey Jr. He is dead at the age of 58.
Starting point is 00:28:29 And so what I don't believe is how he died. Now it was sent to me under the heading from a rabble rouser on axe, Dog for sale. which is really funny because it's funny to me anyway because he died when he was out hunting bears with his dog and the bear apparently was up in a tree in the branches and while he shot the bear he was standing roughly 10 feet from the base of the trunk of the tree and then the bear fell out of the tree and fell on him. So, is that funny at all?
Starting point is 00:29:28 Not funny at all. But now, you know, nobody knows what to do with the dog because it was a hunt dog. So, uh, it was a large bear and apparently lost consciousness on impact. Uh, yeah. And one of his hunting partners immediately began administrating first aid. And, uh, they all are talking about this as part of the, Virginia Department of Wildlife Resources. I loved them.
Starting point is 00:29:55 The VDWR. They all say that they are confirmed that they're not seeking any charges related to the incident this time. Who are you going to charge? The family for him out, you know, hunting with his dog? Because you can do that in Virginia, okay? He survived by his wife, five children, eight grandchildren. Wow.
Starting point is 00:30:18 He's a self-employed. contractor, but an avid outdoorsman. And his, even his Facebook profile said he was a houndsman, bear hunter, and muscle car aficionado. So the houndsman is, or the dogs, you know, chase the bears and tree the bears.
Starting point is 00:30:38 And they can do that in Virginia because of bear hunting regulations. They allow for bear hunting with hounds during the firearm season, which is in limited parts of the state, including the county that Lester Clayton, Harvey, Jr.
Starting point is 00:30:58 was hunting in. According to this, 75% of all black bears in Virginia were taken using hounds. So they used the hounds and run the bears up the tree. This bear was not I mean, come on now.
Starting point is 00:31:16 The hound tases the bear up the tree, and you go get the hound and shoot the bear and then the bear falls on you. That's not good. You can quote me on that. That is not good. So he was transported to a health community memorial hospital,
Starting point is 00:31:31 and then he was relocated to Richmond's VCU Medical Center, and he never pulled through. He passed away in the critical care unit. And so just be careful when you're out there in Virginia, using hounds as an avid hound. houndsmen out there, out there chasing bears and hunting bears. And just know that the bear could fall from the tree on you.
Starting point is 00:31:59 Because that's exactly what happened to Lester Clayton Harvey Jr. Dead at the age of 58. And I don't know if this means bad luck for the hound or not. I mean, if you are a hound and you treat a bear and that bear fell on your owner, is that bad luck for other? houndsman? I don't know. I don't know. I would say, but it all started, the story started with dog for sale. So I don't know if you're going to get a good price for the hound or not now. Then we have Igor Karilov, 54 dead. Igor died. He was the head of Russia's chemical and
Starting point is 00:32:43 biological weapons defense program, apparently assassinated by Ukraine's secret service. service. The 54-year-old died after a bomb detonated when he was on his electric scooter. It's not funny. I'm sorry, but you'd think Igor would be traveling on something or with something or inside something better than an electric scooter at Moscow. But no, I guess not. And it was a big bomb, too, because they said it shattered windows on residential buildings nearby. and that is not good. That is not good. They are doing everything they can to continue this war and get the United States involved.
Starting point is 00:33:27 Don't forget, he was, I believe he was the guy that talked about the biological weapons program in Ukraine by publicly accusing the U.S. of having the biological weapons program in Ukraine. So it's just a surprise, isn't it? that Igor, dear old Igor, would be blown up on his electric scooter? Some would say no, it's not a surprise at all. But rest of peace to Igor, I guess.
Starting point is 00:33:59 Rest in peace, although does that make me a rush? A Putin lover dead at the age of 54. And this is just horrible. Syrian mass grave has been uncovered, and they believe that in this mass grave, over a hundred thousand bodies were in this mass grave outside of Damascus. So they believe that these are the people that were tortured and killed under President Mashir A D'Assad. And so, man, it makes me, makes you like this guy even more, doesn't it?
Starting point is 00:34:35 Yeah, we're just, I think these people will do what I want. If not, I'll torture them and I'll just throw them in this mass grave outside of Damascus. And, you know, we'll, that's where it is, the mass grave right over there. So apparently, this is going to come as a surprise to you, the former president of Syria, Bashar al-Assad, was not a good guy. I know. Breaking news.
Starting point is 00:35:00 And very sad that we're uncovering mass graves with hundreds of thousands of bodies in them. I mean, that has, I thought we were past that. We had Stalin and we had the dingleberry from China, Mao. they were fans of these mass graves, which I am not. And apparently Assad was. So very, very, very sad that we are uncovering this in Syria. Now, does that mean the new rulers are our friends? Well, we'll see because I have a feeling that they're not.

Starting point is 00:36:08 So we've got the drones, at least in the Northeast, and we're having drone sightings all over the country, but specifically in the Northeast these days. We have a few missing monkeys in South Carolina. We have missing EMU in South Carolina. Now we have monkeys on the loose in Florida, in Orange City. People are seeing wild monkeys
Starting point is 00:36:36 running around their neighborhood. And Orange City Police Department have received multiple reports of monkey sightings within the city and they don't know where they're coming from. So we don't know where the drones are coming from. We do know where the monkeys came from in South Carolina,
Starting point is 00:36:52 where the emu came from in South Carolina. But we don't know where these monkeys came from. They're busy looking for them. The Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission, the FWC, is out there trying to help people out. They said if you encounter
Starting point is 00:37:07 a monkey, contact the Florida Fish and Wildlife and don't do anything. I don't do anything. Now, I would say if one of these monkeys coming through your yard,
Starting point is 00:37:24 you may want to be careful. Because these monkeys can carry diseases, and they are their wild monkeys, so they're telling you not to feed them. But they're a threat to the native wildlife and the ecosystems. I really don't know.
Starting point is 00:37:45 I mean, they're big monkeys, the pictures you see. And I will say that the pictures that I've seen is like one monkey. So it might not be monkeys. It might just be one monkey. And so it's probably someone's pet, but they don't know. They don't know if there's more out there. if they're slowly trying to take over Orange City, Florida or not.
Starting point is 00:38:04 And if they are, now is the time to make your presence as a human known. Just go out in your backyard when you have the monkey on your fence and give him one of these. And if that doesn't work, you give him one of these. Be careful, though. We don't know if there's one, if there's multiple monkeys out there trying to take over a city. if it's just one of your friends that had the monkey and set it free, let them know. Something bad could happen to the monkey because people are saying, hey, we're going to treat it like the iguanas or the pythons.
Starting point is 00:38:43 They're saying, if we see them, shoot them on site. So at least there's some people in Florida that are willing to remind these particular animals humans first.
