Am I the only one that goes through, you know, I see the social media posts about the, they're the feel-good social media posts where you're supposed to be happy that something really good happened. Like I see this post and real, I guess, I'm supposed to believe that it's a real story. It says my husband and I were in the ER

and an elderly lady was wheeled out to leave. She told the receptionist. She had no family or ride home, and I was saddened to see some, not all, but of the employee's lack of concern as to how she would get home. All of a sudden, this amazing gentleman who had been waiting with his wife approached the lady and told her he would gladly take her home. Now this man, not knowing her or having a clue where she lived, volunteer his time to care for this lovely woman. And she offered to pay, but he kindly declined like a good man would. As he went to get his truck, I wheeled her out and put her in the vehicle and as I

watched them drive away, my only thoughts were there are still great people in this world. We have to care for our elders like this nice man. And it goes on to talk about, you know, some more good stuff that happened in the ER. And am I the only one that reads

that as like, as he went to the truck, I wheeled out to the vehicle and as I watched her drive away, my only thoughts were, I hope he's not a serial killer. Does anybody know what happened at that lady. I never saw them again. Am I? Is that just me? Okay. Never mind.

Welcome. Welcome to chewing the fat. What did you buy from Amazon on Amazon Prime Day? Did you buy something? Because the event is over. The 48 hour Prime Day event is over. And I guess it was one for the record books. I actually did make a purchase. It wasn't because of Prime Day, but it

happened during the 48 hour Prime Day. event and they claim that consumers spent $14.2 billion on Amazon Prime. So after my purchase, you're welcome. Because I felt like I spent, when I purchased, I purchased a book and we've talked about it what book I was going to order.

But I feel like I didn't get an Amazon Prime great discount. I know they delivered it for free because of my Prime account, but I just felt like it should have been cheaper than it was. It was like I don't know, 30 bucks or something. It was just, I mean, whatever, it's fine. I wanted the book. I paid for the book.

I'll read it this weekend. It came in, it came, you know, free delivery to my house in two days. It was fine. But this is the highest total since Prime Day began with an 11% increase compared to 2023. Tuesday brought in slightly more revenue than Wednesday. Hey, I purchased mine on Tuesday, 7.2 billion versus $7 billion. and Amazon exec, Doug Harrington, love Doug, said the significant uptick was a testament

to millions of customers as well as employees, delivery partners, and sellers worldwide. Well, I've got a testament for you too, Amazon Prime. I hate your commercials. Okay, oh wait, Jeff, this doesn't have anything to do with that. That was just talking about goods. I hate your commercials. Every time I log on to Prime to watch a show,

it pisses me off that you want me to pay more money and you keep ramming these commercials down my throat to make me realize how much I hate the commercials and I'm going to have to pay you the money to get rid of the commercials and I'm still sticking to my guns

I'm still digging my heels in just like Joe Biden digging his heels in won't leave the race, won't leave the presidency I'm that way with paying prime for commercials I just I were paying them for no commercials because I'm already paying them enough money, I feel. They obviously feel different.

So just say it. I was okay with the freebie. That was your deal. I was okay. Fine. Put your shows on freebie that you want the commercials on. Fine. I'll watch the show if I want to watch it on freebie

and I'll live with the commercials. But when I watch something that comes up on prime, I expect that to be no commercials. And no, that's not good enough. You still want my extra money for that. And it just pieces me on. Makes me so angry. And then, I mean, maybe we need to up the, maybe Doug Harrington, the exec at prime,

can look into why they have so god-awful commercials is the same ones over and over again. Sell some ads. Do something. Make it different. I think that might be the plan. Don't sell some ads. Make the ones that are advertising spends more money because they'll get more. roles, more plays, and people will get so pissed at seeing the same commercials that they'll end up

buying, they'll end up spending the extra money for no commercials. Am I reading too much into that? Probably. And I see where Netflix said that they had another quarter adding 8 million global subscribers, almost double what the Wall Street predicted. The company also said memberships to its new ad-supported tier. grew 34% from quarter one, and now is planning to build an in-house ad tech platform

to launch in 2025. And the news, you know, the shares went up and down. Stock market loves it. That's great. So it plans to stop divulging the metric next year as it focuses on more revenue and profit. Yeah, we don't want to tell people how many people are subscribing,

how many people are going away. We just want you to know that we're doing great. and keep being a member. I've been a Netflix subscriber for a long time, and those prices just keep going up. They just keep going up. A little bit of a time. Little bit of a time.

Yeah, it's like half. Over the past two years, it's not even a full cash register drawer open. It's just like, to-t-tit, to-de-tit. We're getting close to the full. It's close to that. It's close to that. And when the door falls out and hits the ground after it opens up, that's when I leave.

That's when I leave. But right now, I still, I mean, I like the products that the app is giving me. So why don't you just shut up? Okay, I will. Okay, so we've had the hacks at AT&T. Or was it Verizon? I think it was AT&T. And then we had Disney investigating hacking for a trove of their internal communications.

data that was leaked by a hacktivist artist rights group. Okay. And now are we back flying? By the time this podcast drops today, I'm sure that everything will be fine. And all the IT glitches that happen from Microsoft overnight will be taking it. It's all good, right? We don't have to worry about it.

Because I know they were backed up at all the airports. All the airlines, there was a ground stop. If you were flying today, I feel sorry for you. So I guess they're back in the air now. And the group CrowdStrike, they were, that's the, that's the cybersecurity platform that was having an issue with an update. Now, they either didn't do an update or they did an update that they weren't supposed to do. It wasn't ready to be an update.

I'm not quite sure what exactly happened from CrowdStrike. But they are just saying, no, no, no. You know, there were 911 outages. I mean, this is a huge cybersecurity platform that was used, that's used globally by a lot of companies. So it affected a lot of companies. It wasn't, I don't think that it was up to Y2K standards, but it was definitely Y224 standards. And so we're back to running. And the people at CrowdStrike want you to be sure that we know that it would know that

It wasn't a hack. Okay, we were not hacked. This was just an update issue. That's not a hack. Okay, we got it. We got it. We believe you. Okay, we believe you. So just know that when you're standing in line at the airport or you call 911 and you get boop-boop-boop.

Or you can't get into your Microsoft Word program at home. and it just gives you the death screen. Just no, okay, just no. It wasn't a hack that caused it, okay? It was not a hack. It was just an update issue, and we're working on it. Look, we sent companies some fixes, and where then that fix, well, that fix didn't actually work great.

And then because we were still working off of the other update, so that fix really didn't work. But there are fixes out there. We're on it, and we weren't hacked.

I'm speaking to airlines. Maybe it's good they had a ground stop today. All right, maybe it's good. Because there's another story.

We went through a list of two or three, I think yesterday here on Chewing the Fat. And then we have another story that occurred on an evening London-bound Ryanair flight from Morocco. So passengers on the flight reported that it started when a man in his 20s asked a woman to swap seats so he could sit next to his family. The woman refused to change seats

since she already sitting with her daughter. Okay, I'm going to pause it for just a moment. There was another video not long ago of a lady starting a fight in a plane over the same thing. Okay, I don't have to move. Because you asked me, I don't have to move. If my ticket says seat D1, I don't have to move from D1 just to satisfy you.

I'm sorry that you didn't reserve your seat. next to your daughter. I'm sorry, maybe it was an emergency, whatever, I don't know, I don't know your circumstances. I, you know, I'm sorry for your circumstances, but I'm not moving, okay? It's not, I don't have to,

I don't have to do that. You can ask, I could say yes or I can say no, but for you to get pissed at someone for not moving just because you ask, that's a real problem. So anyway, the man, I was a little upset that this lady would not, would not move.

So he began to threaten her. Then as the flight reached 30,000 feet, the seatbelt sign came off, and that's when the woman's husband came to her defense. And the two men started punching each other on the flight. Awesome. I mean, it's awesome to talk about it, but I'd be so pissed if I was on the flight because,

come on now. You know, we've got to get to our destination. Stop it. They're not going to end the flight. They're going to land somewhere. We're going to be stuck in somewhere. god awful airport for another day or more waiting to get to our destination.

I just I just want to get to London, okay? That's all I want to do. Anyway, so then as these people started to fight, one of the men's family members on the flight jumps in. Oh yeah?

And he started, then we start punching on that too. Okay? So then the lady behind where they were fighting has a panic attack. She's screaming. The kids were crying. It was like a snowball effect, the domino effect. The whole thing was chaos.

The pilots make an emergency landing in Meritech. Now they're stuck in Maritech. Oh, man, how much do you love that? We're going to be in London tomorrow. No, you're not. Sorry, you're stuck in Maritech, okay? Then the chaos continued on the ground. Moroccan police had to take nine passengers off the flight.

during the brawl one passenger got sick then they required medical attention oh see all right and so he was determined unfit to fly but refused to leave the plane and then threatened the crew he was forcibly removed by police

it took two hours to treat and offload these disruptive passengers oh did they get back in the air though during which time the rest of the passengers remained on board the crew reached their permitted flying hours caused the flight to be delayed overnight

of course. That's exactly what I... Oh my gosh. The 200 passengers left on the plane were kicked to the curb never to be seen again in Meritech. No, they had provided hotel rooms overnight because how much do you love hotel rooms in Maritech this time of year? Am I the only one that

just loves the heck out of that? I would be so angry. Now, I will say this. Why do not not a high video. Why am I not having video to this? Maybe the people weren't filming. They were so upset. But I just know I haven't seen this massive brawl. It doesn't mean it's not out there because it very well could be. But I would be so pissed.

Just don't you understand? We all just want to get on the plane. We want to put our seatbelt on if it fits or get the seatbelt extender, which I carry separately anyway. put it on and sit comfortably and just let's get to our flight. All right. I don't want to. No,

I'm not moving. And maybe I am. Maybe if I'm flying by myself and you're with your kid and you got to sit next to your kid, maybe I do move, ask. But don't get pissed when I say, no. You know what? No, I'm comfortable right here. My knee is out here in the aisleway because it hurts.

And this is a perfect seat for me, which is why I reserved it. And I'm not going to move. So have a nice day. get to, let's just get to our destination. Please. Now, you know it never happens in first class. You know why? Because those seats are reserved.

Sorry, I'm sorry, business class. But those seats are specifically reserved. You know, that's not happening. It's always back there behind the curtains with the unwashed masses. Now, if someone from first class comes up and says, hey, I need to, I didn't think I was going to, my daughter was going to let her fly by herself back here, but she doesn't want to. and so I could only get one first class seat could you move up to first class

and then I'll sit here well all right fine no problem I will but it's never there's no well there are flights in first class sometimes but there was one that's a whole other long story about it one flight I had with the guy in first class

that was hitting on a lady and he was drunk and I will say this that we took care of it the entire the whole first class section was like dude sit down, shut up. And he did, because we don't want,

we want to get to our destination. So how about you sit down and shut up? And it actually worked. Wow, did you see that the U.S. Navy, and if you didn't see, I'm going to tell you about it right now, the U.S. Navy announced it has exonerated 256 black sailors wrongfully convicted after the 1944 Port Chicago explosion.

How many times you talk about the 1944 Port Chicago explosion? I mean, I am so sick of hearing about it. I killed 320 people and injured over 400 mostly black sailors. The disaster occurred when two ships exploded while loading ammunition for troops serving in World War II. Following the explosion, white officers received leave while black sailors were ordered to resume the dangerous work. Of the 258 sailors who initially refused,

208 faced summary court-martial for disobeying orders despite having returned to work, and 50 were charged with mutiny. The exoneration announced on the Explosions 80th anniversary Wednesday of this week. Today is the 19th of July, 24. so the 17th of July. The exoneration announced on the 80th anniversary comes after the Navy Review

found significant legal errors in the trials, including improper group prosecution and inadequate legal counsel. Two sailors had already been previously cleared. And I mean, this incident led to the largest mutiny trial in U.S. naval history, exposed racial discrimination in the military, and contributed to the Navy's decision

to desegregate its forces in 1956. So, I mean, good, right? I mean, okay. If all of what they say is true and they're apparently, you know, documenting it all, good. It absolutely should have happened. And that's why we desegregated. We're not those people anymore.

We're just not those people anymore, which is why we're trying to make it right from the past. All right, let's go to the break room. I need something cold to drink desperately. You know, throughout your lifetime, you're going to find people that are they either leaders or their followers. And just remember that when it's time for you to buy or sell a house,

especially in this housing market, you're going to need a leader, not a follower. You know, years ago, Glenn, you know, guy down the hall, Glenn Beck, got so fed up with the follower types that they didn't know what they were doing. He decided to do something about it, and he started real estate agents, I trust. Because he didn't want other people going through all the same hassles he had to every time he moved. Real estate agents, I trust, pairs you with the best real estate agent in your area, someone who knows the best practices,

someone who understands the crazy housing market, someone who's a team leader and a closer, someone you can trust. So if you're thinking about buying or selling a home, or maybe both, get in touch with them, you'll see exactly what I'm talking about. Real estate agents I trust. Well, I mean, it's in the name.

Go to real estate agents I trust.com. Real estate agents I trust.com. Just a side note headline. John Deere has announced, you know, nothing runs like a deer, announced it's slashing its diversity and inclusion initiatives after weeks of a backlash.

Huh. That is weird. That is weird. They got called out for all their DEI initiatives, and now they're, you know what, we're just going to slash our, that whole program.

Huh. That's weird. I saw the other day, I don't know if we talked about the Microsoft off. They cut their DEI department too. Well, I don't know if that was two people or three people or whatever, but

I mean, every university now, every big business has a good gig, man. That's a good gig to be the diversity. I guess you're just head of DEI, right? Diversity, equity, and inclusion. That's what we're here for. You send an email once a week reminding everybody

hey, hey, hey, hey, be nice. Use everybody's pronouns. Make sure you change your emails to the right pronouns. And then you do, I told you years ago that's yes. That's what we needed to do is make the bullet point presentation for companies to be more inclusive and more diverse and more equitable. And that's all you got to do. You show up, you do an online call. You know what? I can fit you in on Thursday. And if we do it, you know what, If we do it before 2 p.m., I'll let you have it for $100,000.

Good? Okay, good. No problem. That's what these guys were doing. It's just, anyway, John Deere announced their slashing diversity and inclusion initiative. So your backlash worked.

So the show The Boys has issued a warning to the start of its season finale following the assassination attempt on Donald Trump. They issued the Boys TV and Prime Video issued this. The season finale of the boys contains scenes of fictional political violence

which some viewers may find disturbing. That's the show. I don't know if you ever watched it, but that's kind of the show. Which some viewers may find disturbing. Again, that's the show. If you've already, if you've made it this far,

you don't think the scenes are disturbing. If you've made it to the season finale, okay? especially in the light of injuries and tragic loss of life sustained during the assassination attempt of former President Trump. The Boys is the fictitious series that was filmed in 2023, and any scene or plotline similarities to these real-world events are coincidental and unintentional. Amazon, Sony Pictures Television, and the producers of the boys reject, in the strongest terms, real-world violence of any kind. the episode initially titled Assassination Run

and now has been renamed to and they must have ran this through the table of people working back and forth trying to decide what should we call it? We can't call it an assassination run. What should we call it? Why don't we just call it season four finale? Not a bunch of duffices.

Yeah, that one works. Let's just do that. We just call it the finale. Oh, okay. That's just, you know what? I'll tell you what, I'll get you a name. And you just give me, what do you normally pay for these people at this table? I mean, salaries at this table are what? Three mill a year with insurance added on, maybe a company car, nameplate on the door.

I'll give you a new title, okay? I like a season finale, season four finale. Thank you. You can I have 50 grand? No, thank you. I mean, come on. Come on. What are we even?

Anyway, just know that they care about you and you, the viewer, because they change the name. I love it when stars are out doing interviews and they try to give breaking news and let you know that they're just regular people too. And you know what? Sometimes the pressure is so much. Adele announced, you know, really,

she was on a German broadcaster ZDF. I love ZDF in Munich, man. and that is, who. She's got her 10-day residency starting in Munich. And that's why she obviously was proud. She's out promoting herself. That's what she's got to do. You've got to promote the residency.

Let's go. And she says, I don't even sing at home anymore. Oh, no. Adele, baby, what's wrong? Well, I need to take a long break from music. I've following these current concert series. I don't even sing at home anymore. How strange is that?

over the past two years she's been performing at the weekend residency in Vegas which was a nightmare to begin with because she canceled it from the very beginning right she was such a nightmare to work with and couldn't get anything done and then what we oh yeah then

she was a nightmare but no no now everybody's got COVID cancel anyway she at Caesar's Palace which uh concludes in November so that's just she's just working so much And then it's been an emotional exchange.

So I just take a long break. I just need a long break. You're right, baby. You need to take a long break. Just go stay in your castle in England. Or maybe go stay in your American castle there in Bel Air and relax a little while, okay? I don't know.

Do you want to bring the brother to England to the castle? I don't know. I was asking. I don't know. And then I see where Nicholas Cage is out hawking his movie that everybody is happy with long legs. And he's got

Nicholas, we all know you're going to do any movie you want for money. We all know you already told us that you can now make decisions on saying no to movies because you don't need the money. You were taking care of your mom and she passed away and you had all this stuff stolen

and you had other some other bad financial advice. So now apparently everything's okay at Nicholas Cage's financial world. So he can pick and choose what movies. because there for a while. I mean, he just did any and every movie, and he said, I needed the money. I had to do it.

Well, he said that, you know, I really don't like playing violent roles. And this movie, Long Legs, I just do not like portraying serial killers and individuals who cause them. So these, I know this demand is going to come up following Long Legs here, but I don't like violence.

And I don't want to play people or hurting people. Nick, we've got a serial killer movie here for you. We'll pay you $10 million. I'm in. I'm in. That's the same thing as what's his face from Peaky Blinders.

Yes, Sillian Murphy. Mr. I'm not going to, after Oppenheimer, I'm not going to get any more movie parts that smoke. I've had enough of these parts. I smoked a million cigarettes of these clothes cigarettes and peeky blinders. And all I did was smoke on a, Oppenheimer, I can't do this anymore.

Silly a Netflix called and they wanted to know if you'd film a Peeke Blinders movie to wrap up everything and so you know you'd be your same character that you were and oh all right, fine, it's only, it's fine, I'll do it one last time. Sure you wanted to pay me millions of dollars. All right, fine, I'll do it. It's just ridiculous. Hit pause on whatever you're listening to and hit play on your next adventure. This fall get double points on every qualified stay. Life's the trip. Make the most of it at

BestWestern. Visit bestwestern.com for complete terms and conditions. Who died today? Who died today? Well, let's begin with Bob Newhart. Ah, very sad. Bob Newhart dead at the age of 94. So apparently, according to his publicist, he died after a series of short, Huh. The series of short illnesses, huh? Nah, it could be that. Otherwise, they would have said it. Remember, I mean, Bob was huge in the 70s and 80s

with the Bob Newhart show and Newhart. And then he did, you know him from Papa Elf. And the movie Elf was, he was awesome. And then he was in Big Bang Theory, which was really funny. He won an Emmy for that, actually. And the story behind that, and I'm a fan of Big Bang. bang theory. That show was really funny. Chuck Lorry

said that Newhart told him for years that, no, I'm not going to do any of your shows. And then he finally fell in love with Big Bang Theory. So he said, okay, I'll do Big Big Bank Theory. Two provisions. Character's got to have an arc

for several episodes, and I want to win an Emmy. Because he's done all these TV shows that never won an Emmy. Right? Weird. So, he said, we delivered on both and I got to work with the comedy legend master of the craft kind of a gentle man even got to call him a friend so that's awesome rest in peace Bob newhart plus Conan Conan o'brien was really sad Conan loved Bob Newhart remember and even Conan put him in the airtight thing at the

Emmys uh you know brought him out because the Emmys was too long and uh he said that he rolled newhart out into the uh the air tank that only had air for three hours So if the Emmys goes longer than three hours, you kill Bob Newhart. That's hilarious. That's for, anyway, rest in peace, Bob Newhart, dead at the age of 94. Then my man, Lou Dobbs, the iconic conservative pundit, dead at 78. I mean, he got kicked to the curb a couple years ago over there at Fox, and I guess nothing life wasn't the same after that.

Now, I will say they didn't give a cause of death, but in the announcement, the family said Lou was a fighter till the very end, fighting for what mattered to him most, God, his family, and the country. That leads me to believe that he was sick, that he was really sick because they don't, when people die wording, you know,

they say he was a fighter because he was sick and he was trying to stay alive as long as he could. So, and I get it. I mean, he's got, you know, a wife, kids, grandkids and whatever. He's just Lou Dobbs, man. He's good. And so he, he's 70.

I used to see Lou Dobbs all every day in New York when we worked, when we had our studios in Manhattan. We had our studios there on 6th Avenue and Fox was up a couple blocks. And I'd go out front. In those days, I was smoking. Man, I wish I could do a cigarette then. And I was going out front of the building before I learned that I could go through the back where all the help comes in.

And I go back and they let me smoke out in the loading dock. Yes, baby. I got to see all the delivery boys coming in and out. The truck's back in and out. But they say, yeah, go ahead. He's smoke back here. That's America. That's America. So I used to

go out the back way and smoke in the back on the loading dock so I didn't have to deal with the people out front. But that then I miss Lou Dobbs. Because I'd be out front smoking and Lou Dobbs would be walking down 6th Avenue and he he'd have every time he walked by he had the phone to his ear i believe that is how he walked down the street so he didn't have to talk to anybody he just walked down the street people would go

lou lou and somebody's like he'd give him away but he's on the phone he'd give him away but he's on the phone he is talking to nobody anyway rest in peace lou dobbs dead at the age of 78 then we have fandango founder j michael klein uh dead at the age of 64. Jay Michael Klein jumped out of a hotel I need to break that to you easier? We do know cause of death

for Jay Michael Klein. He was found unconscious and unresponsive. Yeah. He jumped out of the floor, out of the hotel, the Kimberly Hotel on 50th Street in Manhattan. The police said I was indicative of a fall from an elevated position.

You think? Are you a detective? Who's a good little detective? You are. So the investigation is ongoing and no criminality is suspected. I mean, he could have been thrown out. We never know. So anyway, we'll find out the cause and manner of his death.

But Jay Michael Klein decided that he did not want to be a part of this earth anymore. Very sad. If you or someone you love, I do this disclaimer every time we talk about suicide, but dial 988 is the lifeline, crisis lifeline. If you or someone you love, need help use it. Because I just said the other day,

I believe it was in this segment. It's just because this is the death segment after all. Get help because you think that the world is going to be better off without you. That's not true. It's not true. It just isn't.

And you've got to find a way to get past that. So dial 988 if you have those feelings. Then we have this story out of Arizona. And I will say that this is the type of person that I believe is when we should bring back town square. Because just hang them in town square and just throw rocks at them and beat the crap. I'll walk by them hang there forever. And you know what? When they start, look, did he die yet?

No, give him a transfusion and bring them back to life. And we'll hit him again. Okay. So this guy, his father in Arizona, has been charged with murder for leaving his two-year-old daughter in the hot car for hours. And he was distracted by playing a video game.

Yeah, darn it, did I leave the kid in the back? Now, he lied. And this isn't the first time he's done it because there's a text from his wife saying, I told you to stop leaving them in the car. How many times have I told you? Wow. I mean, come on now.

No, see, now he, okay. It says here that, well, he's charged with second degree murder and child abuse. Yeah. And he should be, like I said, hung from town square. By his toenails and just hang him there and let him bring him back to life and kill him again. It's fine. He left her in the car. with high temperatures for a couple hours.

Now, he said that he left the daughter in the car because she was sleeping and he didn't want to wake her. He left the air conditioning on in the vehicle. Okay. I will say this. There's been many times I have, I can still see my son and daughter in the back seat of my car pulling the driveway and they are sound asleep.

And I don't want to, I don't want to move them and I'm tired. So I just put the car in park. and I go to sleep. I sleep with them until they wake up. I mean, I'm out, Jack. But I'm not leaving them. I'm not leaving the car. The car is running.

I'm with them. I'm just, I'm sleeping. I'm not going to wake them up. Because if I wake them up, then I'm not going to be able to sleep. So we're not getting out of this car. All right, we're not doing it. Where the AC is still on?

It's not. I'm in park. And if the car starts to heat up a little bit, I'm going to put it in neutral and hit the gas. So the AC cool. down a little bit more, but we are sleeping, okay? And I used to, I'll never forget pulling into my folks driveway.

I forget what kid it was. I said I'd never forget, but I'll never forget pulling in their driveway. One of the kids was in the backseat sound of sleep. I pull in the driveway, and I'm just about sleeping, and I see my mom start walking down the driveway, and I'm like, don't you even think about knocking on this window. I will burn this house to the ground, man. she came up to the window and I looked at her like

don't you even don't do it but if I had one at the time that's what she would have heard and so we slept but now this guy doesn't do that he leaves he leaves his daughter in the back of the car are you freaking kidding me I don't understand how you forget your kid and you don't obviously you don't forget them

you just don't care they're sleeping you don't want to wake her up because you to go play your stupid video game and so you leave her in the back of the car and figure she'll wake up and get out on her own. If she's two, probably could do that. She probably could get out of the car on her own. I just, I don't understand.

It's sickening to me how the, most people don't use those stupid child locks. Shut up, why would you use the child lock? That's like keeping your kid a prisoner. What are you a cop? Throwing your kid in the back seat of the car? stop it. You want the kid to be able to get out.

I mean, I've told the story before where I locked my one son in the car at the airport because we left the keys. My wife was dropping me off. That's our first trip I was going to Israel with Glenn. That's at Tampa International. And I put the keys on the back floor because I thought my wife had her keys because I was going to Israel. I was going to be gone for a week or two or wherever we were gone.

We were gone for. And she left her keys in the purse of the car. We got out, closed the door, locked. And there's my son Max, out to sleep in the backseat. It's like 5 o'clock in the morning. And I'm like, oh, crap. So I go down to the airport and I get that, I call. I asked the security guy, hey, I locked my kid in the car.

You know, I was, I got to get, I got to go through the airport. I got to get things done. So we've got to pick up the pace here a little bit, all right? I don't want, don't break my window. Okay, just pop the lock. Don't break the window. The kid's fine. He's sleeping.

But I mean, I had Tampa Fire Department there. I had tow trucks there. I had police there. I got everything. It was like, it's not a crime. I didn't do anything wrong. I locked the keys in the car. Then I went to save him.

And they popped it out and got him out. They check him out. He's a good kid's fine. Yeah, he's fine. He was sound asleep. I just locked the keys in the car. Oh, don't hang me in Town Square. I didn't leave the kid back there.

You did. I honestly don't understand how. people can forget their kids in the car. It's legitimately they didn't forget. They just care about themselves more than they do their children. And there was just a story the other day about the lady that left her kid in the car at a parking lot of a casino and she's inside gambling. And she's, well, I only was gone for like five or ten minutes.

It was like two or three hours. They looked at the film of her coming and going. It was like three hours she's in her gambling. Fortunately, that kid's okay. And had that been in Arizona? Arizona or Vegas, because the casino was not in Vegas, or not in one of the deserts. So the kid was fine.

But still, she's more important. I got to, damn it, I've got to put up with my kid. I'm just going to leave him in the car, and I'm going to go do what I want to do. I just, I don't understand it. And if you, I mean, honestly, I don't, I don't understand it. Your kid's there.

It's another human being. You don't, you don't forget. another human being in the automobile that you're in. You just don't. You just don't. Town Square. I let him hung by his toenails in Town Square. And I know that's wrong and it's hateful and hurtful.

And we shouldn't think that way or be that way. But go ahead and build it right there and string him up. I'll continue to say it's wrong. But I want to see him hung there.
