Blaze Radio Network And now Chewing the Fat with Jeff Fisher If you're traveling to Columbia And I know many of you are thinking about Hey, I think I'm going to go to Columbia
Starting point is 00:00:43 You may not want to use your Tinder While you're in Columbia I know I know I had to be the bearer of bad news But Tinder Has warned Singles Because that's the only people that use Tinder in South America, in South American country of Columbia, to be wary of whom you swipe right on at least eight U.S. citizens have died in November and December, either from a suspected overdoses or homicides, often, often after meeting up with local women from dating apps.
Starting point is 00:01:28 So it might not even be just Tinder. Holy cow. So according to the U.S. Embassy, dozens of other male tourists met up with Tinder and Bumble matches and reportedly woke up hours later to find that their bank accounts had been emptied and their devices stolen. Sometimes they've been beaten up. So local catfishers slash thieves are slipping America.
Starting point is 00:01:58 and other foreigners a sedative known as devil's breath. The drug is odorless and makes people suggestible enough to hand over personal belongings, passwords, and other sensitive info before it knocks them out. You don't want none of that devil's breath given to you. You may want it, but not for you. So I know you're wanting to go to Medellin, Colombia, to party and have you. your vibrant nightlife. But just watch yourself
Starting point is 00:02:36 swiping right on your dating apps because, man, some bad things may happen. And you may be worth it. You might think, you know what, it's not going to happen to me. Look how hot that person is. Swipe right. Welcome. But on the other hand, you might
Starting point is 00:02:56 get slipped. devil's breath. Welcome. Welcome to chewing the fat. Remember way back in November, December of 2022 and we talked about how
Starting point is 00:03:17 they found homeless people living in caves in California and they were cleaning them up. They gutted it out. They got rid of them and they talked about how they were going to fill in the caves and they were concerned about you know, the flooding and erosion. They were so caring for the homeless people that they wanted to, you know,
Starting point is 00:03:37 help them. Well, not so fast because they moved back in. A big surprise, they moved back in to these riverside caves and they outfitted the, what's being called the trash-filled dwellings with furniture and other supplies before they were cleared out by police and volunteers. The 20-foot-deep underground digs were tucked along this river in Modesto, accessible by makeshift stairs carved into the hillside. I mean, this area, according to them, has been plagued by vagrancy. Yeah, there's a thing that we've got going on right now in the country called open borders. And those people are not the homeless people.
Starting point is 00:04:26 then we have the, are there some of the homeless people, not all. And there's a lot of people who are Americans, actual Americans, that are homeless. And they've got to have a place to live. And some of them don't want to have a tent along the highway. So they dig into the grounds, and let's go ahead and make a cave. They're right there by the river, which I'm sure.
Starting point is 00:04:48 That means that they're using that water for, you know, going to the bathroom. and drinking out of? I hope they're boiling the water. I hope there's a boil order on that water. So during the sweep of these living quarters, 7,600 pounds of trash. Filling up two trucks on a trailer was removed.
Starting point is 00:05:11 Photos from inside the caves. I'll hold them up right here for you. You can take a look. They show a table, crates filled with supplies, and even a couple of chairs. Aha! We had a hard time. Authorities were like, I'm thinking all this stuff down here.
Starting point is 00:05:29 We couldn't even get up and down the hill. What would happen if the subterranean encampment collapsed? It would be devastating. Now, do I want the subterranean encampment to collapse? No. But you cleaned it out a couple of years ago. and now you're doing it again. And if one of those encampments, let's say, had collapsed
Starting point is 00:06:00 between the last time you cleaned it out and today, you wouldn't even have known. You wouldn't even have known that those caves that had bedding, drugs, and other contraband in them, chairs, stuff hanging off the walls. That is amazing. People will find a place to live. They need a place to survive.
Starting point is 00:06:27 And they cleared out eight caves, eight caves along this river in Modesto. So I find it fascinating that we don't even know how they got this stuff down here. There's chairs and sofas and beds. Yeah, it's called work. Now, they're not doing work. Well, maybe they are. Maybe they are working, and that's just where they live and that's their home. But have fun.
Starting point is 00:06:53 Have fun. Look along your rivers and embankments to see if there's, you know, entryways, because you never know who's living in a cave down by the river. Okay, I don't know why this is funny, but it's funny. There was a kid in Salt Lake City, Utah, that, well, in Provo and Orham areas of Utah. and this it's a 17-year-old who has executed these what they call bizarre pranks. I don't call them bizarre pranks. I just call it. It's damn funny.
Starting point is 00:07:30 I don't know why it's funny, but it is. He's been taking fish and taping them to the screens of ATM machines. It is so the fish has got a cigarette butt hanging out of its mouth and is just, taped to the screen of these ATM machines. It is hilarious. I don't know why it is, but it is. And he was posting the videos to his Instagram, of course, to his Instagram account, of course,
Starting point is 00:08:04 whereas bio states, live, laugh, tape fish on ATMs. It is so, so funny. Now, there are some, videos being shown that people started copycatting, of course, in Tokyo, in a Guatemala, in Phoenix, in a bathroom stall at the Bass Pro shop. No, I mean, we have to do it to the ATMs. I don't know. If there's an ATM in the bathroom stall at Bass Pro, okay, no problem. He used a variety of fish such as trout, bluegill, bass, catfish, carp, crappy. The one fish that I saw had a cigarette his mouth really really funny in one incident he taped trout to a provo police car so he's just going around
Starting point is 00:08:59 that's really really funny the teen that's not funny because it's criminal okay he's been charged with property damage stemming from the cost of the cleanup come on how much does it cost to clean up ripping tape off of the screen oh you had to replace the whole screen did you did you have to replace the whole screen. So he faces two charges of property cleanup, property damage stemming from the cost of the cleanup.
Starting point is 00:09:27 That can't be that much. Now he says on the Instagram that no fish was harmed in the making of these pictures and videos, but that is really funny. I don't know what I would do if I came up on an ATM machine that I wanted to use and there
Starting point is 00:09:44 was a fish taped to the screen. But if just having to look at it and seeing it someplace else, damn funny. And you know you're getting in trouble when you're taping it to police cars. Right off the bat. You're just daring them to find you now. So you probably shouldn't have done that. But still funny.

I don't know whether to laugh. I don't know whether to be angry. I don't know, you know, maybe even cry.
Starting point is 00:16:09 I'm not sure if it's something that they play at the kids' hospitals. I'm not sure this is even real. It comes from the Rob Primo on Instagram. And it's just amazing to me if this is real, okay? I feel like it's not real. I feel like we've been had. but I want to play it for you because if it's something that is actually making the rounds
Starting point is 00:16:35 on YouTube for kids you know you might want to watch out it's funny to me and I am definitely not for banning anything so it's okay for it to be out there just you know you can tell your kids just tell your kids it's not real you see them watching it
Starting point is 00:16:51 so the video is animated characters kind of like they're not animated though it's kind of like HR Puffet stuff characters stuff like that
Starting point is 00:17:08 so you know that kind of show but it shows really sick looking kids in wheelchairs and they're coughing and they've got the mask on their hacking and here's the song okay the song coming at you okay so

Starting point is 00:18:40 I got it, this goes on for, you know, another minute or so with the same, with the same stuff, it's unbelievable to me. Now, I will say this. I should have done this in Who Died Today? This should have been part of the Who Died Today segment because it's okay to pass away today. I don't know who did it.
Starting point is 00:18:57 I don't know who gets the credit for it. It's not, I looked at it as watching it again. It's not like the HR Puffin stuff. it is more animated, more drawing characters than H.R. Puff and stuff. But the kids are real. The characters behind the kids are not. And the guy saying singing the song, it's okay to pass away today,
Starting point is 00:19:23 is some kind of vegetable. I don't know what kind of vegetable. I don't know what he's supposed to be with a mustache and playing a guitar and telling you it's okay to pass away today. I know, hey, I know people are saying, hey, humanity do something. Humanity is doing something. They're telling these sick kids, it's okay to pass away today. Wow, just, holy cow, we are headed down.
Starting point is 00:19:51 You know where we're headed. You know. I know, I know. I just, I can't now. And the thing is, is that's also kind of catchy. So you'll be, if you're hungry, it today later I apologize but it is okay to pass away today I was also seeing where speaking of passing away Microsoft laid off at 1900 gaming employees I thought that
Starting point is 00:20:21 wasn't going to happen didn't they just have the big 69 billion dollar acquisition of the Activision Blizzard yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah I thought that wasn't going to happen anyway that's 8% of Microsoft's and cuts come from Xbox and Activation Blizzard, yeah, huh, interesting. And that's 8% of Microsoft's video game division. All right.
Starting point is 00:20:48 CEO Bobby Cotech stepped down in December and now Blizzard president, Mike Ybarra, has decided to leave. So they all got their money. They all got their money for their $69 billion. deal and now they're saying, yeah, we're done. They've got a new game. I thought they had the new survival game that was still ongoing.
Starting point is 00:21:11 Yeah, we went ahead and canceled that. Huh. Does it have anything to do with the gaming-related companies like Twitch, Discord, Unity, and Riot Games all laying off people? No, it's a separate company. We've just got our own issues to take care of. Oh, okay. All right.
Starting point is 00:21:29 No problem. Good luck. God bless. And I see, you know, we just had the big deal with the WWE and making, you know, their big deal with Netflix, and they're in the news. And then we get the story where the woman who worked for WWE received a payout from the company has now filed a lawsuit
Starting point is 00:21:51 against WWE and Vince McMahon. Now, she's pissed because she was, it boils down to this. And we'll get into what. she's accusing them of but it boils down to she signed an NDA for $3 million.
Starting point is 00:22:10 She claims that Vince only paid her a million and she hasn't gotten her money. So she's going before the court to say that the NDA is now null and void because she didn't get all the money and she wants to be able to talk about it. But she already talked about it. She's saying that the nondisclosure
Starting point is 00:22:28 didn't work and she's it's about the relationship that she had with Vince and John Laurentis, another head of talent relations and a few other people that she claims that Vince and John pawned her off on. This Janelle Grant, she said that I didn't receive the full payment and wants to void the agreement with the lawsuit.
Starting point is 00:22:55 But she's already voided the agreement by talking about, or at least the accusation. that she's making is what she's being paid for. Now Vince says it's absolutely BS. Okay. I mean he's already, we already know that
Starting point is 00:23:12 he has paid millions of dollars to other women to zip it to quiet allegations of sexual misconduct and infidelity. According to Janelle, the wife knew he just didn't want to talk
Starting point is 00:23:30 about it, I think. I think at one point she talks about how she had to have known, I think. I don't know that they can prove that the wife knew. But she was hired in 2019, and then McMahon pushed
Starting point is 00:23:46 for a physical relationship in return for a long promised employment at WWE. Look, how can you turn to say no to someone who's saying, hey, I want a relationship with you, I want a physical relationship with you, I promise to keep you working here forever. You can't say no to something like that. She was forced into a sexual
Starting point is 00:24:07 relationship with McMahon where they would share explicit photos, videos, and details of her with other WWE employees as well as coerce her into having sexual relations with other WWE staffers. Wow. So, I mean, obviously, if this is true, I mean, you're walking down dirtbag material. some of the things that she claims that he made her do or that he did to her are pretty bad. Pretty, pretty bad. Now, according to this, the suit claims that McMahon told Grant his wife,
Starting point is 00:24:49 okay, found out about the relationship. So she claims that Vince told her that his wife found out about the relationship, and that's what brought on the end. to get rid of her. Okay. So she signed the NDA, settled for $3 million. Once it was signed, she received a million dollar payment, and she left the company in February of 2022.
Starting point is 00:25:12 A few days later, McMahon and Grant met, and he commanded her to do one last thing, forcibly, making her do oral six. And she could not say no, just no way that she could possibly say no to that. They never met. she said WDSTAR had been in contact with Grant previously, had reached out to her
Starting point is 00:25:41 in line to never met in person. Okay. Vince also says no, none of this happened and it's ridiculous. He doesn't control TKO anymore. Dora does he oversee the dated operations of the WWE.
Starting point is 00:25:59 These allegations they're taking very seriously. The company says, you know, we're dealing with them internally. A spokesperson for McMahon said the lawsuit is replete with lies, obscene, made-up instances that never occurred, and a vindictive distortion of the truth, and that he will vigorously defend himself. All right. So there you have it.
Starting point is 00:26:19 So we'll see what happens with that. To me, it just boils down that she's signed an NDA, which you're working for the WWE. I'm sure most of the employees have to sign that anyway. Could be wrong. But they do, you know, they have storylines and everything they don't want other people to know about. And so you'd probably sign an NDA. And so whatever her deal was, whatever happened, she signed a settlement deal, and now she's broken that deal.
Starting point is 00:26:51 She claims she broke that deal because Vince broke the deal. But we'll see. We'll see. It does seem like to me. that Vince had some issues. Geez, am I working for Vince now? Marshall's buyers travel far and wide, hustling for great deals on amazing gifts.
Starting point is 00:27:32 So you don't have to. They've bagged this season's Italian leather handbags. Designer. Handpicked the finest sweaters from the rest. Ooh, cashmere. Landed makeup pallets from the brands you love. Rushes, too. And hustled all those wishless topping
Starting point is 00:27:49 toys. So plush. Our buyers have got you covered. Marshal's. We get the deals. You gift the good stuff. Wow. So if you use robotuss and cough syrup, stop. Halion is recalling their robotuss and cough syrup sold nationwide due to microbial contamination that could lead to deadly infections for at-risk people. the U.S.-based unit of the U.K.-based global consumer health company. I love that. The U.S.-based unit of the U.K.-based global consumer health company said, yeah, we're just going to go ahead and recall the aerobotosin-calf syrup because of microbial contamination.
Starting point is 00:28:35 Use of the recalled products could potentially result in severe or life-threatening fungal infections in those with impaired immune systems. Haleyn stated in a notice posted by the FDA, most users are unlikely to experience serious health problems. You're going to be fine. Don't worry about it. But, you know, if there's an infection that requires medical intervention, that can be ruled out, you're probably going to be fine.
Starting point is 00:29:09 But, you know, maybe not. Okay. Okay, so the recall includes, they give all these Robitussin Honey CF Max Day Adult, Robitusson, Honey, CF Max Day adult, 8 ounce, and 4 ounce Robitusson Honey, CF Max Day Adult, 8 ounce, Robitusson, Honey, CF Max, NT adult, 8 ounce. Okay, that includes them. I would just, you know, take a break from Robitusson all together for just a little. bit. Consumers who purchased the recalled products
Starting point is 00:29:49 shouldn't use them, Haley-on said. So you could throw them away if you want, but I would take them back and, you know, make Robitusset and give you your money back anyway, for sure. And if you start feeling any kind of... I mean, that may have been brought out by Robitussin. I don't know that. I'm just saying, you know, microbial contamination could lead to deadly infections for at-risk people.
Starting point is 00:30:22 And if you're at-risk people and you have robinthusin in the house, could have been brought on by robinthosin. It's all I'm saying. Who died today? Who died today? Well, we'll start with Massimoe Max, the actress and model who appeared in publications like Playboy and Maxim has passed away. I know.
Starting point is 00:30:51 I know. Rest in peace, Masumi Max, dead at the age of 45. Now, we don't really know what killed her yet. They claimed no foul play is immediately suspected. They responded to her home in the Las Vegas area. where they found her. A thorough investigation will be conducted. So don't look at me like that,
Starting point is 00:31:23 let you think it's that. Because if it's not, they would have said it immediately. So is it a drug overdose? Did she commit suicide? Or was it, you know, what you're thinking? No, it could have been what you're thinking, because they would have said something.
Starting point is 00:31:43 So, uh, Masumi Max. I think that's how you say your name. I know I'm going to be wrong. That's how you say it? M-A-S-U-I-M-I-M-I-M-I-M-X, the model dead at the age of 45. Then they did do it.
Starting point is 00:32:02 They did execute Eugene Smith, the Alabama convicted killer. He was put to death last night. So who died today? Eugene Smith, a convicted killer in Alabama. He was executed with nitrogen gas. Now, remember, he's the guy that they called off the execution a couple years ago with the lethal injection because they couldn't get the needle in.
Starting point is 00:32:38 They keep saying because it went wrong. Yeah, they couldn't get the needle in. so he was sentenced to his death it was in a 1988 murder for hire case and they couldn't get the needle in back in I think it was a couple years ago I think it was in 2022
Starting point is 00:32:53 and now they've had this you know fight over lethal injection drugs and they wanted to use nitrogen and so they did use nitrogen Alabama is one of only three states Oklahoma and Mississippi having approved the method which is designed to replace oxygen
Starting point is 00:33:10 in the body I guess it did not go that well. I was reading the recap of what happened, and I guess, you know, according to the recap, and it could have been someone who didn't like executions, but it started at the William C. Holman Correctional Facility in Atmore, Alabama. And I love, man, William C. Holman Correctional Facility in Atmore, Alabama.
Starting point is 00:33:33 So he's fitted with a mask, and that was used to administer the execution. The process began at 7.50. p.m. Central time and he was pronounced dead at 8.25 p.m. That seems to me like
Starting point is 00:33:50 that didn't go that well. The nitrogen flowed for about 15 minutes during the procedure. I guess he appeared, he looked like he was holding his breath and then he and I could go on to more detail of what happened.
Starting point is 00:34:07 I won't. But he I don't know. It was just really weird how he ended up dying. And if that, you know what? I really, I know that he struggled
Starting point is 00:34:20 against the restraints well. Yeah, hello. And now that's what, you know, that's what you're going to do. I guess he held up his hands. He made the sign, I love you sign in sign language, which is one of his hands that was facing the room where his family was witnessing there.
Starting point is 00:34:40 Okay. Oh, that's good. I love you too, baby. Sorry, you were in prison for murder and you're on death row. But his, he got a couple of last meals, which, you know, kind of interesting. So his final, final meal was steak with A1 sauce, hash browns, and eggs. All right. But before that, he was served a breakfast meal that consisted of two,
Starting point is 00:35:11 biscuits, eggs, grape jelly, applesauce, orange juice. So, I mean, he ate pretty good on the last day. Maybe they'll find that when using nitrous and gas, maybe you shouldn't be that full. I don't know. I don't know. I am just pondering the question. So should Eugene Smith rest in peace?
Starting point is 00:35:37 Yes, Eugene Smith should rest in peace. no matter what kind of murdering dirt bag he is, was. So Eugene Smith dead at the age of 58. You know what else is dead? Electric buses. EVs. I know EV buses. Now remember, we reported, we talked about the Jackson, Wyoming buses.
Starting point is 00:36:07 They just switched to the diesel. powered fleet to keep the operations moving. Yeah, because they didn't work these pro-tera buses. And then you had the Southeastern Pennsylvania Transportation Authority. Love them. Man, do I love the Southeastern Pennsylvania Transportation Authority? They invested in 25 pro-tera buses. Yeah, we haven't been able to really use them for over three years because we had a lot of issues. Well, now Asheville, North Carolina is saying, you know what? We're going to go ahead and press pause on investing in any electric technology until we can assure the products we're going to be able to work.
Starting point is 00:36:56 Yeah. So now the city is relying on biodiesel and hybrid buses to transport commuters because they're going to go ahead and buy two. two more of those because they've spent, I don't know, millions of dollars trying to keep these buses on the road and working. Incredible. They bought five, this is Asheville, North Carolina. I love Asheville, North Carolina, by the way, beautiful city.
Starting point is 00:37:24 Purchased five protero electric buses in 2018 for $5 million. Since then, the city has spent more than 200,000 to build vehicle chargers. they have spent $118,000 each year for the contract to lease the buses and to lease the buses, the batteries, and others to charge the vehicles. Okay, all right. So they've spent about a million on each one.
Starting point is 00:37:57 Okay, so it's time to, we're not ready for this. They also talked about the doors, right in here, the doors, they had a problem with the doors, and they couldn't get them fixed because no company makes them. Oh. Okay, well, so how do we get them? Wow, we're just waiting. We're waiting for this special company that makes these special doors for us.
Starting point is 00:38:20 Oh, all right. What about the traction drive controls that all went bad? Yeah, those are only 251,000. We'll get to you. No problem. Don't worry about it. What about the new power? inverters. Yeah, those are only 14,000 each. We'll get those. Don't worry about it. And so the new doors,
Starting point is 00:38:42 there's a third party that makes them? No, not really. We just got to go find someone to get the custom doors made. Okay. So the company ProTira filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy this past August. And that was just after, you know, they received $10 million in COVID funding. Huh. So they got the COVID funding. and then we can't do business anymore. So it's not interesting how they all get their money and then they just go away. Very interesting. Very, very interesting.

Thank you for being a contestant on What's the Live? Matt, what do you do for a living?
Starting point is 00:40:58 You need to pull down money for a living. How do you make money? Well, not so well. Oh, no. No, actually, I was a professional juggler and variety entertainer for about 30 years. That is awesome. Yeah. You're not one of those guys that can juggle like 50 things, are you?
Starting point is 00:41:16 Because you're going to piss me off if you are. I might even just hang up on you. I mean, 50 is a stretch, but yeah, I can juggle a lot of things. I can also juggle like any three random objects that you can think of. I could just basically pull it off, yeah. I believe I could do that as well. Three random objects, I believe I could do that, no problem. I taught myself how to juggle one summer.
Starting point is 00:41:37 I could tell you the whole story about how I taught myself how to juggle. I probably have at one point. But there was a guy. I used to take my son to this meeting every week. Quick story. I used to take my son to this meeting every week at the same place. And it was, I never wanted to leave because it was far. I was away from our home and I was there.
Starting point is 00:41:57 And I didn't, you know, so I just drop them off. I'd wait out in the parking lot. And, you know, listen to the radio, smoke cigarettes, do whatever. And there was a guy, probably you, Matt Tarty, that used to pull in to the back of that parking lot. And he would practice his juggling back there. And he would juggle like these 80 things all the time. I wanted to go back and just punch him. him right in the face. Because I never could get that. I could always, I could get three,
Starting point is 00:42:22 I could get four, I'm okay, but after that I'm done. I'm just completely done. And I love it. It was awesome. So what do you, I mean, you're saying people don't, how come I'm not working for Cirque de Soleil? What's going on? Excuse me. Actually, a lot of my friends do work for Cirque de Soleil. There you go. But I'm a, I'm a family guy. I got, I got a couple of kids, and that's a hard life. So I... How about... Here's an idea.
Starting point is 00:42:48 This is just a helpful ham for me. We juggle the kids and we go down CERC. Okay? We bring the cafe. We juggle the wife. We juggle the kids. They're along with you for the ride. You're good to go.
Starting point is 00:42:59 Yeah. I mean, if you cut them up small enough... Oh, that hurt. You said you could juggle anything, any size. Yeah. I didn't say any size. You added that. Oh, okay, well.
Starting point is 00:43:13 All right. Let's move on because I could talk about juggling. and your act for quite some time. And I actually do want to know more. But I digress because we're in the middle of what's the lie. So you ready to play? Four headlines. One not real.
Starting point is 00:43:28 What's the lie? All right. Headline number one. The NSA's Furby documents just dropped. Headline number two. Airline introduces fee for passengers bringing stinky or food emitting aroma onto airplanes. Headline number three, the lost continent of Zeelandia has been mapped for the first time.
Starting point is 00:43:52 Headline number four, woman arrested after police found $2,500 worth of Stanley Cups in her car. Those are your four headlines. Headline number one, the NSA Furby documents just dropped. Headline number two, airline introduces fee for passengers bringing stinky or four. food emitting aroma onto plane. Headline number three, the lost continent of Zelandia has been mapped for the first time. Headline number four, woman arrested after police found $2,500 worth of Stanley Cups in her car. Matt, those are your four headlines.
Starting point is 00:44:36 What is the lie? Man, I even researched ahead of time, and none of these came up. So I'm, wow. Geez, I'm going to go with the NSA Furby documents. Oh, no. I wanted you to win so bad, too. Well, hey, thanks for listening to Once the Live. Once the Live is a subsidiary of Chewitin the Fed Enterprises.
Starting point is 00:45:10 All information is probably accurate at the time of recording. T-F-W-T-L-M-M-X-X-I-I-I. So, I mean, you want to know which one is the lie, or are you going to guess again? I'm going to go with the food on the plane. You'd be correct. Damn. I know.
Starting point is 00:45:35 Not everybody thinks I do it. But you really didn't. I know it. All right, man. Thanks a lot for playing what's the lie, man. I really appreciate it. Yeah, thank you, Jeffrey. Stream and subscribe to more Blaze Media content
