And now, chewing the fat with Jeff Fisher. I don't think we should be a cashless society. However, it may be time to rethink what we're doing as far as cash using money, coins. I was just reading where in 2024, with the Mint's annual report, every penny cost a relatively whopping three,

0.69 cents to produce. Oh, wait, what? Yeah, the 19th year in a row that the cost of production and distribution has outstripped the actual monetary value of the coin itself. Now, apparently this started back in 2006 when the mint explained that the increasing price of zinc and nickel was driving the cost of its lowest denomination higher. nickels have also managed to escape some of the heat, but they, we find out now that, because they make fewer of them, there are also a cost to make the nickel. They cost 13.78 cents to make and distribute every nickel, meaning that there, we charge three times more than they're actually worth. Oh, wow.

Okay, so dimes, quarters, and 50 cent pieces all cost less than face value to produce. All right. Maybe it's time that we think about, I don't know, using some other mineral to make these coins a cheaper mineral? I don't know. Or maybe we just get rid of them all. I don't, again, I don't want to be a cashless society because we've covered that on the show before. When you really break it down to a cashless society, you don't want that. that. You're not able to buy things without other people knowing. You're not able to save things. You're

not able to give, you know, your kids a couple of bucks to go get some ice cream, whatever the case is. I don't think that we should be a cashless society. However, we do probably need to rethink the making of our coins since it costs more to make them than they're worth. And that to me is a problem. But what do I know? Welcome. Welcome to chewing the fat. So this showed up in my algorithm on Instagram from Vegan Friendly UK. And he has a chart about the amount of animals killed each year for human consumption. And according to this post, the striking visual helps us to begin to comprehend the scale of industrial animal agriculture and to start to understand the impact on the planet.

and of course for so many innocent lives. And he has a chart of all the different animals that are killed for human consumption. And it may even be worse because animal deaths are very likely to exceed even those shocking numbers due to the challenge of coalating global data. Okay, calm down there, vegan-friendly UK. But they want me to feel bad about. the animals that we consume as humans and it gives you a chart now the charts are are pretty big it's it's pretty amazing but uh see if you feel the same way I do when we go through the chart so they claim we eat 50,000 turtles every year

83,000 crocodiles 100,000 buffaloes and of course the caption is you won't believe how many the top one is sea urchins 400,000 are consumed each year. Camels, 800,000 are consumed each year. Horses, 5 million are consumed each year. Then it goes to cats. 10 million are consumed each year. 10 million cats? Think about all the cats we have everywhere.

We're still eating 10 million of them. They won't go away. Talapia, 12. million tilapias we eat per year. Fifteen million snails we eat each year. Dogs, 25 million dogs we eat every year. I don't even know if these numbers are real, but according to this chart, though, from Vegan Friendly UK, 60 million pigeons are consumed each year. 70 million guinea pigs are consumed each year. 100 million sharks are consumed each year.

That seems impossible. Cows, 300 million are consumed each year. Then it goes up. Lamb, 500 million lambs are consumed. 500 million lobsters are consumed. 656 million turkeys are consumed each year. 750 million salmon are consumed each year tuna 900 million tuna are consumed each year 1.2 billion rabbits are consumed each year it continues pigs 1.5 billion pigs are consumed each year

2 billion octopus is it octopus octopi octopuses yeah 2 billion of them we eat each year. Oysters hanging in there at 2 billion each year. Gooseses, geese, I guess, is it goosees, goose's, geeses. 2.1 billion goosees, geesees, geesees is consumed each year? Ducks, 2.9 billion ducks are consumed each year. 3 billion shrimp are consumed each year. And then here we go. The big numbers start coming in. 14 billion of sardines are consumed each year. Oh my gosh, 75 billion chickens are consumed each day. And according to this chart, that means 205 million per day. Yeah, that's right. But that can't be all.

But it is. They stopped at the chickens. So they give you this chart, and I guess I'm supposed to feel bad about consumption of these animals. but my reply is so I know I know

humans first and PETA will not be happy with me and neither will be the vegans but that's the way it goes because I don't care we breed many of these to consume that's what we breed them for

the others you know you can make the case that we shouldn't eat you know, all the crocodiles. But if we're eating 83,000 crocodiles a day, I mean a year in the world, that means there's a lot of crocodiles. And perhaps, you know,

I don't want 83,000 extra crocodiles a year wandering the globe. But again, I know that's just me, humans first. I mean, we have sanctuaries built to save many of these animals. So I'm fine with that. We take care of them. If you want to have a sanctuary to save crocodiles, you go ahead.

Gatorland, great. Doesn't even mention alligators in here, just mentions crocodiles. So, I mean, I love Gatorland, and that's a sanctuary for gators. But do I want another, I don't know how many gators we eat a year? Do I want those numbers growing? No, I do not. So let's just continue on and have as many as we can in your sanctuaries. No one supports zoos more than this show.

and sanctuaries, I'm all for it, but I'm also for humans eating food to survive. And if that means that we have to eat 83,000 crocodiles in a year, so be it. Now, we'll say that number, 75 billion chickens consumed in a year, that number is going to be going down because we're culling the herd due to bird flu. I know that there are many places like Waffle House that are adding an egg surcharge to all menus. So be prepared. I mean, the eggs prices are going up and the shelves are getting a little bear with eggs. We normally get a big box for the house and they were completely, that part of the shelf was empty yesterday.

We ended up having to get another big container, but not the usual big container. We go through a lot of eggs. That may change. I don't know. But Waffle House is saying, yes, we're raising our prices due to bird flu, and it's caused a dramatic increase in egg prices. Consumers and restaurants are being forced to make difficult decisions.

So they're going to be raising the prices per egg. So whatever it takes to make that product at Waffle House, that's going up. Wow. I mean, you think about it. One guy in this story talked about, buying his eggs for his company and how much the price has gone up in the last year. Incredible. Because, I mean, we're slaughtering millions of chickens every day, thanks to bird flu.

The average price for a dozen eggs is now $4.15. And they're saying that that price is going to increase dramatically as this year continues. The owner of Anne's Pancakes in El Mira, New York, but I'm a huge fan of Anne's pancakes in El Mira, New York. Jared Fish, he said we get most of our food from Performance Food Group. They've gone up substantially. Yeah. He said he was checking, and in July of 2023,

they paid 99 cents a dozen for eggs. And now they're right around $8 a dozen for eggs vendor-wise? Holy cow. I mean, that is amazing. They've gone, that is incredible. So I'm sure that you're paying more for your pancakes at Ann's pancakes in Elmira, New York.

Sorry about it. I mean, maybe we need to have chickens start wearing masks or something to calm down this bird flu. I don't know. I don't know. Do something other than kill them all. But if you've got the bird flu, yeah, you're going down. 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. You know, and as long as we're talking about animals, I mean, we save animals and feel good about ourselves when we do. Like, for instance, this couple who were forced to evacuate during the, you know, L.A. wildfires. And when they returned to home, they found a 525 pound black bear hiding in the crawl space. Now, we're all like, oh,

we're going to call him Barry. And he was scared of the fire. So he crawled under the house. And that's where he was at. And we're just happy he's alive. And he barely, barely get it, survived. And

Barry, they say, is a 525 pound black bear. bear. And so they didn't know how to get him out from underneath the house. So it's a big bear and you try to say, hey, you know, do you shoot it and drag it out? No. It's too big for that. Then you have to cut it up. Nobody wants to do that. Nobody wants to shoot the black bear, then cut it up and get it out from underneath the house. So they brought in some environmental scientist and the scientist said, yeah, we can't tranquilize it and drag it out

there. Apparently they didn't think about killing it. But still it's too big. It's too big to tranquilize and drag out of there. So the city environmental scientist said, hey, why don't we just coax it out of there? We'll get some, we'll make him a feast. And we'll say, hey, we'll tease him out of there. Get out of there. We've got food for you because we know you're hungry. Let's go. And so then he finally came out of the house. That was good. And then You know, they gave him a welfare check, but they couldn't let him go without strapping a GPS collar to him and sent him on his way out into the wilderness.

So we saved him and we put a tracker on him. So we will be able to know where Barry is at all times and how he's doing. And so we feel good about ourselves that Barry, the 525 pound bear, was saved. and we feel good about ourselves, and we know that Barry's plant worked. I mean, he crawled under the house, got fire under there, and all the humans evacuated, and he survived the fires

because he was way down underneath the home. So good for Barry, and good for us as humans, and we're going to continue to track Barry for the rest of his life now. You know, let's say you come home, and from, you know, being evacuated or from anywhere, and you realize that you've got a 525-pound bear under your home. Are you going to want to stay there or are you going to want to move? Well, if you decide, you know what, I want to move.

I don't want to live where a 525 pound bear has now realized he could make himself home anytime he wants. That's when you're going to need to have the help of real estate agents I trust.com.

So it is worth more than a penny. All right, let's go to the break room. I need something cold to drink desperately. All right, I told you it was going to happen. and it has already happened I'm actually kind of surprised it hasn't happened already but he needed to take a break

former president Joe Biden made a new deal with creative artist agency CAA which is a talent agency and I think actually I think it's probably the biggest talent agency around

but he is now going to use CAA to get him deals and you know he signed with them before when he wrote his book. Yeah, okay. President, CAA co-chairman Richard Lovett, said that President Biden is one of America's most respected

and influential voices in national and global affairs. Is he, Richard? Is he? Okay. His lifelong commitment to public service is one of unity, optimism, dignity, and possibility. Okay. All right, come on.

And he said that we are profoundly honored to partner with him again. Okay, thanks, Richard. We appreciate it. So we don't know what he's going to do. You know, again, they had repped him before when he wrote his book, Promise Me Dad, back in 2017 when he left the vice presidency. And then he dropped him again when he started running for president again. So we'll see what happens.

I believe that he's going to go on his I Told You So to her. And he's just going to go around. saying that I told you, it should have been me. I'm the only one that could beat Trump. And proof is in the pudding if he can even speak now. So kind of sad news for Bonnie Blue. You remember Bonnie, she's the 25-year-old Only Fan star that announced her record-breaking sex marathon

with 1,057 men in a single day. And she claimed to have broke the record. And, you know, she posted all kinds of stuff. all kinds of stuff on her on her Instagram and she taught thanks to all the barely legal and barely breathing and husbands that showed up and she

apparently set the record for sleeping with 1,057 men and they videotaped it all and they put it up on her only fans platform well Only fans Only fans has now banned her from only fans Wait what? Yeah

said, hey, we are a platform designed for creators who have completed our comprehensive onboarding process and chose to monetize their content. To keep our community safe, OnlyFans also verifies the age, identity, and consent of all parties featured in explicit content on OnlyFans. We do not allow a large number of non-only fans creators to be featured on an account, which she definitely did. Now, I'm sure that these 1,057 men signed a waiver, so OnlyFans could look at that, saying that all of these men were above age,

and they said it was okay to be filmed and used for the Bonnie Blue's only fans account. But nope, as of right now, Bonnie Blue banned from OnlyFans. Wow, it takes a lot, like 1057 to, get banned from only fans and she did it but congratulations uh you know you uh you got the record although i don't know that that's been 100% verified yet but it has been in her world so congratulations 1,057 men in a 24 hour period got to be proud so i've been watching uh the show on max the pit with no wiley and i like it uh i like what they've done it's kind of uh well i've liked it so far I should say. I've watched, I think, I'm three, maybe four episodes in.

And they drop one every week. And it's called The Pit. And it's about an ER in Pittsburgh. And Noah Wiley's on it. And it's breaking down. Each episode is an hour. And it's kind of cool. I like the way they do it.

And it's interesting. And it is, you know, ER-ish. But so is every hospital show. When the hospital has based out of the emergency room. That's what ER was. Well, Michael Cretan's wife, you know, the guy who came up with ER, believes that, no, that you owe us a bunch of money, and we are that. That's our show. This is an unauthorized ER derivative. Wait, what? We can't even do shows about emergency rooms without it being a breach of contract. Yeah, that's correct. And they want a lot of money. So they took it before a judge, and a judge was like, you know what? I'm going to kind of pause it.

for a little bit. We don't know what's going to happen. But I guess they're waiting for a different perspective, different skepticism. I don't know. Apparently, she was in talks with these people who developed the pit and they couldn't agree on money or what was happening. So they moved it all from Chicago to Pittsburgh.

And they came up with this idea of breaking it down by the hours. And they said it's a completely different show. And Michael Creighton's wife, disagrees. So it's still up in the air what's going to happen, apparently with, you know, money and who gets the who gets the rights and everything. But the show's still on and still making money and I'm enjoying it. I mean, Noah was in the original ER, no question.

And, you know, ER was the monster show for a long time. And it was a big show. And the beginning was just huge for ER. And I mean, what's this? face. George Clooney became a superstar out of this show. Noah Wiley did. So, I mean, Anthony Edwards.

My man, Eric LaSalle was in it, who is in On Call now. Juliana Markey. I mean, they all, Carol Hathaway, there were these huge stars that came out of ER. It was just a monster show. So, I guess Michael Creton's

wife wants a piece of the pie. And as of now, she's not getting it. because they believe that, you know, it's their deal. It's on behalf of John Michael Creighton's Trust, roadrunner, JMTC, that the Pitt is an unauthorized ER derivative, as well as the WDB producer John Wellstar, Noah Wiley, and the Pitt showrunner R. Scott Gimmel

have been named as defendants. So as for now, nothing is happening, and she is not getting any money, and the pit rolls on. but we'll see if the pit has to punch up some cash here real soon because the judge might rule in Cretan's favor. We'll see, though. At some point, you've got to say it's a hospital show and you don't get to have the rights over every hospital show there,

Mrs. Creton. And is it Creton or C-R-C-H-T-O-N? I've seen it on the television screen a thousand times, a million times, and I always think it's Creton, but it might be Crichton. So if it's Crichton, I'm sorry for Creton. And if it's Creton, then I'm right. And I don't have to apologize. This episode is brought to you by Peloton.

at OnePeloton.ca. Well, well, well, they finally came across. I was wondering what the deal was, why I didn't have the TV rating numbers for the Grammys, and I thought, well, they probably were bad. Well, they weren't terrible, but they finally came across. The Grammys on Sunday drew 15.4 million viewers. That's less than last year.

Last year they had 17 million plus, and so that's a lot less than last year. Now, it's still, oh, like second in the post-COVID years. Yeah, well, that's, you know, four years. But anyway, they claim that the show did record numbers on social media content. Well, yeah. The show recorded according to the Talk Walkers' social content ratings. it's an analytic firm, Talk Walkers,

social content ratings. The show recorded 102.2 million such interactions more than any single program, including Super Bowls. Okay. That's interesting because I've often believed that these shows should be done all on social media. Why they don't?

I don't know. I'm sure that there were plenty of, you know, headlining things that happened during the Grammys that caught their attention. It doesn't say whether those posts were good or bad. It just said that it created the posts, right? And they, you know, they raised $9 million for wildfire relief. And they also had the Academy and Music Cares brought in another $24 million of charitable giving.

And they were happy with all their performances. But $15.4 million watching is not that good for them. So they're, you know, they can spin it. that they're happy with the social media engagement because I'm betting that the social media engagement was not all positive. Because I saw plenty that was not positive. But they still grabbed the attention.

So there you have it. They finally cleared the okay of how to spin it. Yeah, the numbers were down, but the social media engagement was huge. Did you know, well, this is space news. Space news. I did not know this. and maybe I did and I just don't remember knowing it, which is very possible.

But Neptune has only completed one orbit around the sun since its discovery. Wait, what? Yeah. Neptune takes a whopping 165 years to complete one full orbit around the sun. So since it was discovered in 1846, Neptune only finished its first full post-discovery orbit in 2011. And Pluto, which is, I guess, no longer a planet, but it is a planet in my heart. It's not even close to completing one full 248-year orbit

census discovery in 1930. So, just letting you know, space news. It's a little factoid that I was like, holy cow. Plus, in this little factoid, they mentioned that, Pluto was a demoted planet? No.

I'm sorry, that doesn't stand. We don't stand for that here. We're not Pluto shaming. Pluto is a planet, okay? As long as we're in space news, the space news. They're reporting now that astronauts who

spend time at the ISS in space, they have vision issues when they come back to Earth. Wow. So they analyzed data collected by the Canadian team at NASA, 13 astronauts who spent 157 and 186 days on the ISS.

The subject had an average of age of 48, came from the U.S., European, Japanese, and Canadian space agencies. 31% were women. Eight were on their first mission. Researchers compared three ocular parameters before and after the astronaut space missions, ocular rigidity, inter-ocular pressure, and o'ocular, interocular pressure, I'm sorry, and ocular pulse amplitude. And man, when you start getting into ocular pulse amplitude, I'm in.

You cannot drag me away from the studies on ocular pulse amplitudes. Anyway, they measured the ocular rigidity using optical coherence, and they move on. They're just saying that they lose a little bit of their eyesight because they believe that weightlessness alters the distribution of blood in the body, increasing the blood flow to the head and slowing the circulation in the eye. That's what causes the expansion of the choroid, which is the vascular layer that nourishes the retina,

which, again, man, this is all part of the ocular pulse amplitude. Man, I can't get enough of that. But they're saying that if we're in space for six to 12 months, then once you get back on Earth, you're fine. Well, and not right away, but it does come back. And so they do sometimes say you have to wear corrective eyeglasses with, and that seems to be sufficient to correct the symptoms developed aboard the ISS. But if you were staying in space longer, i.e. Mars trips,

your vision, it may affect the humans' visions a lot. So these are, you know, important studies for space travel. and what we can do to try to prevent that from happening. And, you know, speaking of corrective glasses, I was reading a story about this 10-year-old girl who's deaf, and she is apparently blown away with these new caption glasses that let her see spoken words. Kind of cool.

This 10-year-old Kendall, who's deaf, is using these captioned. glasses developed by Hearview. So these glasses connect via Bluetooth to an app that transcribes spoken words onto a tiny screen inside

the lenses, allowing Kendall to read conversations in real time. So this technology not only helps her follow discussions, but also aids in practicing her speech by providing immediate visual feedback. Don't, I'm not going to make any jokes about her speech. Stop it.

The glasses have significantly, don't look at me like that, you know what the jokes are. The glasses have significantly boosted her confidence, enabling her to engage more fully in social activities, and communicate with those who don't know sign language. And it also, I mean, we're coming to a time when we all just going to wear helmets. I don't know why this is such a thing, but I've told you this for years, and it's going to happen. We all just need to wear helmets like motorcycle helmets for a year. example, is similar to a motorcycle helmet. And the screen is your computer screen. And you'll be able to do everything on your computer screen. Plus, you can look out the screen for a real-time interaction.

But you also are able to have information and you're able to have everything you need like you do on your phone, only it's with your helmet. And I love that idea. Instead of having to, you know, instead of having to carry around a phone, you just have to wear the his helmet. It's not bulky at all. When I got a great deal on a great gift at winners, I started wondering, could I get fabulous gifts for everyone on my list? Like this designer fragrance for my daughter.

It's just $39.99. How could I resist? This luxurious will throw for my sister. This gold watch for my partner? A wooden puzzle for my niece? Leather gloves for my boss? Ooh, European chocolate for the crossing guard? At these prices, could I find something for everyone at winners?

Stop wondering. Start gifting. Winners, find fabulous for less. So according to a new study, pooping is good for your brain. I know. I'm just saying that's what they said. When preparing for a big test or athletic event, poop first. So a new study found that triathletes performed better on a cognitive test that stimulates the experience of rapid decision-making in sports

when they went number two beforehand. I don't know, it's tough for me to say pooped, but I'll go with it. It's number two, whatever. And it's a small study, so it's not a big deal. They had 13 participants. Okay, well, I mean, this is just like friends hanging out. 13 participants took the Stroop test three times a week apart. The first time without pooping beforehand, the second time an hour after going to the bathroom, and the third time with the help of magnesium oxide laxative.

Okay, so they were without help and with help. The Stroop test performance improved all 100% of the 13 of 13 of the participants after magnesium induced pooping. and most 69% 9 of 13 of the participants after non-magnosium-induced pooping. So is it the magnesium that helps out? I don't know. They said that this is a good deal for sports medicine and health to service, health science. Is it? Okay, good.

It's good to know. Sure. Test participants were presented with color words printed in different ink colors like red, written in green ink and told quickly to name the color. Red, green, purple, brown, blue, red. And then they had to, then it was, you know, green was for the word purple. And red was in brown. And brown was blue, that kind of thing.

The word brown was in blue, that kind of thing. Now, the Stoop test participants were presented with color words. Yeah, yeah, yeah. The study authors used the results to measure their selective attention and mental judgment. So, that's good. They linked better performance in the Stroop test to a significant increase in oxygen consumption in the area below the belly button post poop. And there was less of an effect on the prefrontal brain. The researchers have theorized that the entric nervous system surrounding the rectum, rectum, darn near killed them, may play a role in immediate cognitive tests

by sending signals to the brain based on conditions in the gut. This describes what's commonly known as a gut feeling. Okay. So there you have it. Is it the magnesium oxide that helped them out, or is it just the pooping? I don't know. I think we're trying to make the case here

since there's an ad for magnesium oxide at the bottom of this story. They're saying it's available. All over the counter. tablets, you know, so if you, I think they're, I think this study is aligned with, hey, we need to hawk some magnesium oxide. So let's make sure that we tell people that if you, you know, poop first, you're going to do everything better. And especially if you poop first with the help of magnesium oxide, you are going to be a star. All right, I got an email from Mike who sent in his email at Chewing the Fat at theblaze.com, which you can do anytime. That's the

way the internet works. So anyway, Mike sent me an email and he said, I would like your opinion on two questions. And I, the one of them is awesome, such a, what a, I mean, I told him that I was going to use it as my idea, but I'm not, you know, I'm not that mean of a guy

yet. But he, I would like your opinion on two questions. If we turn the clocks ahead one hour, does that mean the doomsday clock goes past Midnight. Yeah, I don't know if the doomsday clock is in with the time change whole schedule, but maybe, maybe it is. And if that's the case, yeah, we're doomed. Next, what a tremendous idea this is. And I told Mike so in the email. And I, this absolutely needs to happen. No questions asked. If it's going to be the Gulf of America, shouldn't we change New Mexico to New America?

yes is the answer to that question. I mean, if you want to see people freak out against what President Trump is doing, just to have him propose it. You know, we should get rid of New Mexico too. That should be New America. That would be awesome. I want that to happen bad.

That is a tremendous idea. And I'm glad I thought of it. Man, I missed football this past weekend. I really did. There was no football. It's just I had to, you know, you had to be with the family or read a book and, you know, watch some shows that you haven't seen, get caught up on some television shows that you've put on hold. But no football.

Wow. I mean, no football. No college. No NFL. You had the stupid Pro Bowl stuff going on with their little flag football game and all of that stuff. I got it. But, you know, it's not the same. It's just, I miss football a lot.

And I know many of you. you don't care, but I did. And we have the Super Bowl this weekend, which I'm, you know, as I'm looking forward to. I know it's the Kansas City Chiefs, you know, going for their three Pete and everybody's rooting for the Philadelphia Eagles. But, you know, it's no matter what, the Chiefs who went there, this is their third Super Bowl in a row.

Holy cow, what a tremendous feat. Even with the help of the refs, though, right? Yeah, yeah, that's what happened. And it's just that it's going to be awesome to at least have an NFL game to watch. and then it's done. Then we're done. Then it's over. No football for months.

And wow, I don't know. If I have to spend time with the family without, you know, focusing on a football game, I don't know what I'm going to do. All right, let's get out of here. I'll leave you with the joke of the day. It kind of leads into, you know,

sitting around just watching football, which won't be happening after this weekend. The joke sent to chewing the fat at the blazed com. It's not important who sent it because it's a plagiarized joke and I don't know who wrote it, but it does, you know, it's funny. You know, it's worth a smile anyway. I did some mechanic work this weekend. I put a rear end in a recliner. I mean, we've all done that kind of mechanic work, haven't we? Because that kind of mechanic work is like what he's saying is he wasn't really, now you get it. Stream and subscribe to more Blaze Media content at theblaze.com slash podcast.
