Blaze Radio Network And now, chewing the fat with Jeff Fisher. Now that we're allowing women to spacewalk, two astronauts, Jasmine Mogherly and Laurel O'Hara, we're out doing a routine maintenance spacewalk on the International Space Station, and they lost a tool bag.

Huh. And the tool bag is only worth $100,000. So they were out there working or attempting to work And they lost the tool bag Just let it go Oh there goes oh look There it goes why? Because a man wasn't there to grab it

That's why So the white satchel We can now see orbiting the earth You need a little telescope or a good pair of binoculars It's hovering about 200 miles above the planet it's going to be orbiting in the sky just ahead of the space station. It's shining just below the limit of visibility to the unaided eye. So with a little minimal help, you'll be able to see the tool bag.

Now, if you follow the trajectory of the ISS and scan the sky in the area just ahead of the space station, you'll see the tool bag, which is going to gradually lose height, and it should appear about two to four minutes ahead of the ISS. for the next few days. And then, you know, who knows what happens, I guess we'll see that it drops down. They claim that it's going to remain in orbit for a few more months. And then it's going to disintegrate into the atmosphere.

We'll see. But they claim it's going to disintegrate into the atmosphere around March. So this tool bag is just going to be circling around running into stuff for months. Oh, my gosh. Well, we do have a picture of it, though. Japanese colleague astronaut Satoshi Furukwa Actually, that's right, I think it's

Furukawa Amorphophalis Now that's not how he pronounces it F-U-R-U-K-A-W-A Faruqua He caught the moment the bag drifted away on camera and then he was because there's nothing else to do

in the ISS They're flying over Mount Fuji and he's like, oh, I guess I'll take some pictures of Mount Fuji. And he captured the bag in the toolbox. There's a pretty good picture of it, actually. And so it's good. We got a picture of the $100,000 tool bag orbiting the globe because these two women couldn't keep their hands on it,

which is surprising because women usually hold onto the purse is pretty good. Oh, it was a tool bag. All right. It's just a joke. Stop it. Welcome. It's not a joke about losing the tool bag, though. I'll tell you that.

Welcome. We just threw a no one on one of the SpaceX delivery flights, and they'll get a new one up there. Don't worry about it. Welcome. Did I say that already? To chewing the fat. Okay, so I'm trying to find out what happened to all the people in San Francisco.

They cleaned it up, and it looks beautiful, and they put the little planters up, and they've got fences up, and they're having their big APEC summit there, Xi Jinping is there and our President Joe Biden is there and there's other 20, 21 heads of state there. And they're all hanging out. Xi Jinping and Biden are meeting at this 654-acre California estate that has five distinct ecosystems and a 56-room mansion built by a mining and gas baron. That's where they're hanging out. When you saw them walking and you see all the footage of them walking along the trails. That's where they're at.

You can't be expected to meet any place else, other than that, for sure. And it looks beautiful. It's on this peninsula below San Francisco, 654-acre estate. It's monstrous. It's the Falloli estate, F-I-L-O-L-I estate. Now, this guy, you know, it's got fruit orchard, redwood grows, natural springs 54,000 square feet home

built in 1917. It's now open to the public. Oh, it's a public place now. Yeah, that's nice of them. It was closed down for the last few days because of this, obviously, this is where they were meeting. It's now owned by or run.

I say it's a beautiful place. and they're, you know, fixing it up for Christmas and the lights are gorgeous. And, you know, you're going to stay someplace. Hello, you're going to stay there. It was built by the mining and oil baron, William Bourne and his wife, Agnes. It features large oil paintings, you know, huge windows.

It's got its own taxi derby. I freaking love it, man. These people do not know how you couldn't just meet at the, at the at the motel 6. That's not happening. No, you're not staying there. You're not staying there.

But it is now run by the government, or I'm sorry, the National Trust for Historic Preservation. Oh, that's nice. So anyway, I want to know where the people went. I say, I diverted it. I don't know if they're all dead or not.

Now, no one really has said exactly where they are. There's one story that I saw on Twitchy. And I'd like to say thank you to Twitchy and Amy Curtis, who wrote this story a few days ago, that used one of my tweets in her story from my ex account. And the question in her story is, where did they go? Yeah, I want to know that too, Amy. Where did they go?

And she goes down, she has shared a bunch of people's exes, a bunch of people's posts on X. And, you know, Colin Rugg started out with his story, which talked about how they weren't spending any money and how they moved everything out and they put in little planters. And it was just a beautiful thing now. And it's all wonderful. And they said that they weren't spending any extra money to do this, right? and so but the question is where are the people and Elon Musk it very well could have happened I don't know if they dug a giant hole bulldozed them in just be done with it I don't know that I'm 100% opposed to that but I'm sure they didn't do that now Elon asked

where did they go and so one response to that from T-Wolf said that they've been herded back into the tenderloin. I was out there today, hundreds on the street and garbage on every corner. They cleaned up to dealers, but the homeless remained. Very sad. Okay, I guess. If that's right.

But in the story, they scroll down and she's posting people's tweets with that tweet, quote tweeting. And my quote tweet is in this story where I had said no additional funds are being used. Ha ha ha. Okay, I believe you.

So, I mean, it's a thank you. And I'm with you. And I do want to know where the people go. And that's the only thing mentioned in the story about where the people went. One guy on his post on X said they were all moved back into the tenderloin. Haven't heard that from anywhere else. So I don't know if they've got them hurted out on Alcatraz. If they actually did, you know, dig a hole and beep, beep, beep, beep.

shoved them all into the hole and buried them? I don't know. But I do want to know where the people went. What happened to all the people? I'm okay. Again, I'm not 100% against the bulldozing. However, oh, stop it. Don't look at me like that. It's just a joke. But I do want to know what happened to the people. Where do they go? As long as we're speaking about San Francisco in this APEC meeting, I see also where a Chinese president What a guy, Xi Jinping. He met with, you know, he had by his Biden yesterday at the house there at the 654 acre dump in San Francisco. But he had friends from Iowa come in for a dinner.

He was hosting a dinner with all his old friends from Iowa. So apparently, back in the 80s, when. When he, Xi Jinping, was just a county-level official and a chemical engineer from the Hebei province, Hebe-I province, he came to Iowa to view American agriculture. And so he made some friends there. So he had dinner with former U.S. ambassador to China, Terry Barnstar, who was the first term Iowa governor back when he first came to visit. it. And so they, he even says in this story that, uh, he thought Xi Jinping would be a reformer, like his father, with further opening up and it's gone the other way to him becoming more authoritarian and he's consolidated power and given more authority to the Communist Party.

Okay, but still we're going to, you know, we'll work out a deal with China. I mean, I still going to work out a deal and take their money. I mean, we have a good relationship with them. but we want to increase trade and, you know, agriculture goods like our pork and soybeans and now beef and chicken. We're not going to turn that down. That's worth $35 billion a year to Iowa.

But that guy, man, I thought he was going to be better than he was. What a bunch of hooey. You know that no one loves local news reports more than me. I mean, I really could go on a limb and say no one supports local news reports more than me, but I won't. I'm just saying I love them. We get a man on the street interviews

out from local news. I love it. I mean, the man on the street is broken. That's a two and the fat law come from those man on the street reporters. You do not have to speak when people put a microphone in front of your mouth. That's a fact. Just so you know, when you see news people on the street

and they put that microphone, everybody thinks they have to sound smart, everybody thinks they have to answer. You don't. when the news crews come to your home and oh action news we'd like a word you don't have to open the door and if you do open the door let's say they don't say action news and they just

and you open the door and they go hello action news we'd like to know if you murdered your mom and they put a microphone you don't have to answer you don't have to answer whether you murdered your mom or not You don't have to answer. That's a fact. So anyway, I see this.

I had this sent to me from my man Brad Staggs over there at, what's that Mojo 5-0 thing he does, whatever it is, the mornings in the mojo or mojo in the mornings with Brad and Ron, whatever it is he calls it. And so he sent me a story from Detroit, seven action news story, which I like their website, by the way, WXYZ.com, ABC 7 out of Detroit.

And Stephen Clark and Diana Lewis are the anchors, and they throw it to Tara Edwards, who's reporting. And it's about this guy who dumped stuff in the road. I'll let the news report speak for herself. We may stop and start it. But the guy, the culprit that they catch up to, Ehor Discovich, is all. awesome and it's almost like it's not real.

I don't know that I believe that it's real. This old news report may not be real just because of him. But here we go, the ABC 7 News. Sorry, 7 Action News. A possible case of illegal dumping in the middle of the street made one neighbor

very upset and he ended up chasing the person responsible on Detroit's east side. With no luck and a big mess on his hand, he called us for help. Tara Edwards tells us what happened. after he reached out to seven action news we first introduced you to jeff bone during seven action news at five all right he witnessed a man

boldly dumping large chunks of wood from a flatbed okay stop all right so now they show a picture of these it's just cut up a tree the guy is just he's just uh just you know people are having trees removed because they're sick or whatever and that's what he does this guy apparently uh is a removal guy all right and so this guy caught him just drawing these stumps,

these giant stumps in the road and driving away and he obviously chased Astro, but that's what's in the road are these giant stumps of tree logs. From a flatbed, along couch on Detroit's Eastside Tuesday in bright daylight.

Brown says he confronted the guy, the man took off. Brown tells us he jumped into action, got into his car and tracked down the truck. He got a license number and called police. But the mess remained on the street, and no one had been caught. Okay, stop for just a second.

So the master man, we didn't call this. I mean, the city doesn't even come out. It's, you know, we'll send somebody out. We get somebody out there next week. Between noon and four on Tuesday. We'll get rid of those logs for you. Until then, though, man, that's all we got for you. Okay.

I don't send somebody out? Okay. All right, go ahead. Had been caught. Taking action for Brown, we did some dink, and found Ehorstich, a Warren resident. Ehorrestachevich. The truck round described parked in the driveway. All right.

Now, I'm always stop. Pause. All right, so now, my girl, Tara Edwards, is on the hunt. And she's got E. Horace Kovitch. And she's walking up to him. She's got the cameraman. She's walking up to him. This is investigative reporting right here.

We've got my man, the log dumper, on the hooks. Aha. Okay, let's go. Hovered his yard. Stakevich claims he had a curve in the debris. accidentally fell out. It's a little illegal to leave the wood in the street. So what I'm asking is, I mean, you don't have to ask me, and I don't take no orders from no woman, by the way. By the way, I don't take orders from no women.

Dekevich says she was planning to go back and clean up the wood, but only had $1 worth of gas. So you were saying that you were going back to clean up? Oh, yes. Oh, yeah. I'm Mr. Clean up. That's me. I'm not Mr. Clean. I'm Mr. Clean up. And I'm cleaning up Detroit. Go figure. hear that one out. But somebody said that they tried to yell at you to come back and you kept going. It must have been a woman and I don't listen to women yelling.

I tell him to shut up. Pause it. That is awesome. That's what makes me think this isn't real. Someone said they were yelling at you to stop and you didn't stop. It must have been a woman. I don't listen to women. And I don't take no orders from no woman.

Let's be clear about that. Okay, let's be clear about that right now. All right, back to action news. Well, he was quite offensive with his answers. Dekevich maintained. Okay, stop. Why was he offensive? Because he doesn't take orders from women.

He doesn't talk to women. That's why he's offensive. Sorry about it, Tara. He wasn't being offensive. He wasn't being mean. He was just stating facts. I don't listen to women, okay? That's not a...

Facts are facts. All right, for my man, E. Horace, Dekevich. I go ahead. Maintains, he just wants to help people remove chunks of wood from their property. Does he? Does he love them all by myself with nobody else's help? Old guys, disabled guys, black guys, white guys, Polish guys, Ukraine. From Mars also.

Oh, okay. From Mars? For Mars. Yeah, that's where I'm from. And police are investigating what exactly happened out here. And whether Sekevich is responsible or whether he'll face any charges. On Detroit's east side, Tara Edwards. Tyra Edwards.

Thanks, Tara. Seven action news. Thank you. Thanks, Tara. I don't know what to deal with their audio. How about WXYZ.com? Have some kind of better audio feed from their website. That'd be great.

Anyway, I don't know that it's real. I want it to be real. I want E. Horace scavenge to be real. I just don't know that he is in today's world. Pretty good, though. Pretty good. We had reports that people were honored you to stop, and you kept driving.

That must have been a woman. I don't listen to women. I thought I made that clear when we started this interview, okay? I don't listen to, I don't take no orders from no woman, okay? We're clear about that. That is outstanding. Outstanding. Congratulations to ABC 7 News, 7 Action News at WXYZ.com.

for doing some investigative reporting on the illegal street dumping in Detroit. Okay, before we get into the break room, I was on Pat's show this morning, and he did a commercial for liver health, and he talked about the amount of people with sluggish and fatty livers in America is just incredible. I didn't know this, but the liver is the hardest working organ in your body. I didn't know that. It's responsible for your weight management, energy levels, cholesterol, hormone, and brain health.

Your liver is the powerhouse that holds the key to your well-being. But here's the thing. Everyday bad habits take a little toll on your liver, the unhealthy eating, sitting around, watching TV all day, not doing any sports, can all lead to sluggish, fatty liver. Don't nobody want any of that. Nobody likes the idea of having a sluggish fatty liver that makes you gain weight and experience chronic fatigue. One in three Americans has it.

Probably even that neighbor of yours has got it. You know the one that you don't like? That you're glad that there's a fence between you and him? Yeah, he's probably got it too.

He said, actually, a pretty good line that he's always dreamed about. doing the Oscars exactly four times. That's a funny line.

Go figure. So the award is after Samuel. Clemens, you know, the guy that we know is Mark Twain. And the first recipient was Richard Pryor back in 1998. I'm one of probably, I know everyone thinks they're the biggest Richard Pryor fan. I'm the biggest Richard Pryor fan. But congratulations to Kevin. He gets that I was looking at some of his, the accolades.

Come on now. Let's just air it live. If you're going to air these stupid things,

air it live. You can quote me on that. If you're going to air these stupid things, air it live. But congratulations, Kevin. Now, this doesn't have anything to do with the Oscars, but it could possibly win a Tony if it were to come to America

and man, do I want it to come to America? I cannot wait until this gets to Broadway. Gwyneth Paltrow's legal battle with the skiing optometrist. Now you remember that story. I mean, we covered it at length, in depth, on this very show, chewing the fat with Jeff Fisher. Well, now it's going to get the musical treatment.

It's going to be a musical. Nothing says a musical like Guanteth Paltrow's legal battle with the skiing optometrist. Gwyneth goes skiing is set to debut in London next. month from the self-described harbingers of queer chaos awkward productions oh man uh holy cow and it's based completely on the court trial between paltrow and uh sanderson yeah that was his name uh oh fuck no so terry sanderson was the guy's name who uh he filed his lawsuit claiming he was left uh with a concussion four broken ribs and a brain injury

He originally sought $3.1 million in compensation. Then they changed it. I'm trying to remember the whole story now. But they were, and Paltrow had said that he was the one that skied into her. Remember, and they had the video of, you know, the moment the crash happened, and she yelled, you skied directly into my eff and back. That was awesome. Good stuff.

So, and the jury found it her favor. I mean, she countersued for a dollar and attorney fees. And she won the case. So that's got it. But I mean, holy cow. A musical on this case? Now there's a Linus Carp who will star as Paltrow. And it doesn't say, okay, is Pudger.

Terry Sanders is going to be played by a guy named Joseph Martin. All right. So I can't wait for that. There's nothing that says a musical like Wenith Paltrow's legal battle and court case with the skiing optometrist. I saw this. All I could think of is Monsters Inc. Remember when they're screaming and they're screaming at each other? Put that thing back where it came from.

So help me. They're working on a play. Oh, and good news. A Pew survey released yesterday found that 14% of U.S. adults 14% of U.S. adults regularly get their news from TikTok. Quadruple the share from just three years ago. Nearly a third, 32% of Americans ages 18 to 29, regularly get news from TikTok. 43% of TikTok users overall say they get news on the planet.

platform. Okay, so now as I'm reading this, I'm thinking, okay, so what is they are considering news? I have not read the survey. I'm going to have to delve into the survey. I'll get back to you on that because obviously there's, there's no time. I mean, if you're listening live, today is the 16th of November, 2023. There's no time for me to do this, you know, now, but I'm going to have to dig into the survey because what do they consider news? Like if I'm scrolling TikTok and there's a story, like my, you know, I, I see stories. Oh, I, no, never mind. I'm talking about TikTok now. I don't have TikTok.

But there are people in my life who have TikTok, and they see stories on TikTok, and that's, you know, we'll talk about it. And that is, is that considered news? Because the story is a news story. There may be a TikTok influencer that's talking about a news story that, you know, I guess that would be interpreted as news, right?

So, I mean, that's okay. I mean, I get tons of news. from social media technically. You know, I see something mentioned on X at Jeffrey JFR. I see something on Facebook and Instagram, Jeff Fisher Radio, are my

handles. And I either search for it, I look it up, I find out if it's real, if it's not real, what's it about, that's where we get stories here for chewing the fat, that kind of thing. So you're using social media to get news. That's not a, that's not necessarily a bad thing. It is because it's TikTok, Jeff, okay?

It's China! It's bastards. I know. I know. I know. Calm down. Relax. Okay. I know. I've covered it. I've told you what happens, uh, you know, when you have the TikTok app on your phones. I know. Okay. I got it. But let's get past that for a moment and realize that getting news from a particular social media app really isn't that bad a thing. Is it? $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. Who died today? Who died today? Terry Taylor. Terry Taylor, you know her as the first woman AP Sports Editor. She has passed away at the age of 71. She was multi-layered coverage of rigorous reporting, entertaining, enterprise, and edgy analysis. That's who Terry Taylor was.

That's how I describe her. I don't know how you know, Terry, but that's how I would describe Terry. multi-layered coverage of rigorous reporting, entertaining enterprise, and edgy analysis. That's just me. That's how I would describe Taylor Taylor. She's passed away now. At the age of 71, very sad.

We do know what killed Terry and it was breast cancer. And I don't wish that on anyone. We've all had cancer, and more specifically, breast cancer touch our lives. is not fun. It's just crap. It says here in the story, she stopped chemotherapy

because the side effects became intolerable. Yeah, that's what happens. The chemotherapy is poisoning your body. It's killing everything in your body. Hoping to get a grasp of killing the cancer. It's just an other whole thing. It's just ugly. And so rest in peace, Terry Taylor.

Well, I like to call emphasis into multi-layered coverage of rigorous reporting, entertaining enterprise, and edgy analysis. Terry Taylor, yes, that Terry Taylor, dead at the age of 71. Okay, so I'm looking at the story of Terry Taylor,

and it talks about how she was diagnosed in 2013 with breast cancer. Now, my first wife had breast cancer, and her goal was to make it five years. She did not, after the diagnosis. Now, Terry was diagnosed in 2013, and then it metastasized three years later.

So now you're looking at 2016, right? And I was thinking, well, geez, I mean, we're 2023. That's pretty good. And if she stopped, it said she stopped taking chemotherapy treatment last December. So we'll say 2022. You figure that's pretty, I mean, she made it, right? She made it. She crossed the window, the bridge into that five-year plan.

although I know what you're thinking. So don't even, stop looking at me like that. Don't. Oh, I, Jeff, that's, look, remember what happened back there in 2021, 2021, you see what happened. That's what reinvigorated the breast cancer.

I didn't say that. It didn't say that in the story. So just stop looking at me like that, okay? Because it doesn't say that at all. That is the timeline, though. Be on the lookout for a man. who has been traveling across the United States impersonating a priest.

You bastard! Now it's not bad enough. Thank you. It's not bad enough that he's impersonating a priest. He's been stealing church money. Now, not too long ago we had the video, I don't think I talked about it, but we had the video of the two girls

that stole money from the elderly lady in church. So this lady is in church, she's praying. And two girls come up, one sits behind her, and the other girl sits in front of her, and the other girl turns around and prays with the old lady while the girl in back

is stealing stuff from her purse is nothing sacred anymore. Church is sacred ground. I mean, as bad a person as I am, and I know I'm a bad person. I got it. Church is sacred ground. Okay, it just is.

I mean, the documentary Highlander told us years ago, there could be only one, but church is sacred ground. sacred ground. And it just is. But this guy has been going around impersonating a priest and stealing money. Now, he last stole money in Houston.

He goes by Father Martin. So if you see a priest that says, he says, hey, Father, and he says, hey, Father Martin, nice to meet you. He's not a real priest. He's just wearing a fake white collar. And he told he was at the St. Thomas

Moore Catholic Church Houston. Oh, I forgot my keys in the rectory. Gosh, darn it. And they let him back in. And then he stole $500 from a wallet of another priest inside the rectory. Oh, it's only 500 bucks. But he has outstanding warrants in California and Pennsylvania. So he gets around. He's been actively stealing in other states as well. Oh, interesting. So the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops reported warning of a man posing as a priest in California, Oregon, and more. I love those reports with always and more. The memos noted that he was likely responsible for stealing $1,770 from a parish in Oregon.

Two days before a stop in Houston, the same impersonator allegedly appeared unannounced at six parishes in Dallas. His appearance raised suspicions by local workers, though, because he was foregoing the typical protocol of priests. Right. Everyone knows that you have to have a letter of suitability from your pastor or bishop to document your identity. Duh. You can't just walk in and say you're a priest,

although he does. And some people go, oh, hey, father, what's going on? So, I didn't know this, and this might be something, you know, you're just keeping your back pocket, keep quiet. I probably shouldn't say it out loud. but according to the Dallas Police Department, that's the Dallas, Texas Police Department, there is no criminal charge in Texas

for impersonating a priest. So there's no investigation. The long as we can't prove you still the money, just impersonating the priest, you're fine. So if you run into Father Martin, Keep your hand on the wallet. It's hockey season, and you can get anything you need delivered with Uber Eats. Well, almost, almost anything.

Vote by union members on whether to accept the tentative contract that led the UAW to end its six-week strike against the automaker General Motors was too close to call. So the contract looked poised to ultimately be approved this week as they are tallying votes. Oh, you mean they're going to recount? Huh. I'm sure that it'll come out in favor of the unions. the contract the deal which included

25% pay bump held as a win uh-huh and they had separate contracts with Ford and Stalantis Toyota and Honda and Hyundai all up their wages

we've upped ours so now up yours but some union veterans felt that they weren't getting as much as newer workers and so others were disappointed that they didn't even get bigger consent everybody wants more money

so we'll see if the deal actually gets ratified Just amazing. I don't think we've ratified the SAG after deal yet either, the actors deal. So, I mean, we're saying it's over, but not really. Not until it goes through all the people. Then we have Starbucks, I'm sorry, Starbucks Workers United, planned to mount its largest strike ever today,

for those of you listening live on the 16th of November, 2023. The choice was just chosen at random. a random date chosen. Oh sure it's Red Cup Day. You know, that's what Starbucks gives out their reusable holiday themed cups, and who doesn't love those? Man, if you don't have a

Starbucks Red Cup, what kind of holiday are you having? But it's a blockbuster day for them. Man, people love those stupid red cups. So, reported, I mean, last year they made their biggest single sales day. So according to this,

more than 360 of the Starbucks 9,000 corporate outposts have unionized, but none has secured a contract, so they're busy walking out. We'll see if that has any effect. Walgreens and CVS, you know, they've all walked out. According to this, they're not walking out now, but the organizers want to now have a national unionization campaign

with IAM healthcare, and that represents, they want to become part of the IAA, healthcare workers union for Walgreens and CBS. Now that's staff. I don't know if that counts as the pharmacists or not. So we'll see what happens there. Just make sure you fill the prescriptions. Quit your whining.

Help the customers. Same with Starbucks. And you know what? Same with General Motors, Delantis, Honda, all of you. Just make your cars. You keep asking for more and more money. People are going to be able to afford your services.

stupid products, you're going to be out of a job. They already talked about GM. GM has already talked about moving more plants outside of the U.S. And if you think that's just happening by accident, think again. And they've already, we talked about how they're giving, who was, was a Stalantis that was, that offered more than, more than half of their corporate staff. Buyouts. Get out.

Have a nice day. We can't pay you anymore, get out. It's just amazing. Just amazing. And then I see where the teachers union, the 48-person field staff for the National Education Association, voted unanimously to authorize a strike

in hopes of securing higher pay. Okay, I mean, everybody wants more pay. Everyone, everyone. You, me, Millie, Billy, and silly. all want more pay. Sometimes you can't mandate it with your union stuff. And I don't quite understand this. Target, I keep seeing headlines of Target

suck in big wind. You know, they're not making their sales mark, and they don't care. They're going to, Target is going to be Target. But the Target shares are up 18%. But the U.S. retail sales overall have dropped, and they claim that target revenue expectations. have dropped.

So are people still shopping at Target? I mean, I guess they will for the holidays, right? Right? Yeah, they will. No problem. All right, I got to get out of here. I'm going to leave you with a helpful hint today, though. I read this last night, and I thought,

that is a great idea. And it's kind of scammish, but not really. It's just a way to get information. Okay? And this comes from at soy chatic

so I guess it's psychotic you know play on psychotic got it every time I have a programming question I rely that I really need help with I post it on Reddit and then log into another account and reply to it with an obscenely

incorrect answer people don't care about helping others but they love correcting others works a hundred percent of the time. That's a good idea right there. So you can use that for yourself. Just ask the question.

Log in and answer the question completely wrong. And then you'll get the right answer from people correcting the wrong answer. That's a good idea. You're welcome. Stream and subscribe to more Blaze Media content at theblaze.com slash podcasts.
