And now
Chewing the Fat with Jeff Fisher
If you were thinking about going to the premiere
of Christopher Nolan's The Odyssey
You know at IMAX
The 70mm seats for The Odyssey
It's gonna premiere July 17th,
2026.
So they put tickets on sale
last week on the 17th.
95% of the available seats
already sold out.
So, I mean, that broke industry norms for sure.
Tickets for July, 26, just sold out.
So you might have to go to another night.
And I don't know that those tickets are available yet.
They were just selling the premier night tickets
at, you know, exactly 365.
days ahead of the premiere.
So then now you can get them on eBay and any of the resale ticket sites for about a couple
hundred dollars more than what you would have paid right off the beginning.
So there's a testament to IMAX.
Yeah, it's a testament to IMAX.
It's a testament to Christopher Nolan and the Odyssey.
Better be good.
Better be good because the tickets for Premier night are already sold out.
Welcome. Welcome to Chewing the Fat.
A couple of big news stories coming out of the state of Tennessee.
The first story is at a Tennessee-based credit union,
the Eastman Credit Union branch offices in Johnson City, Tennessee.
There was a video that went viral of two people taking care of a little bidness
in one of the private offices,
except the private offices
didn't really have
completely walled offices.
It was behind a closed door,
and the offices had those
like smoky glass walls
in the offices,
so you could tell if humans were in there.
And the video was some guy
taking care of one of the bank employees
in the office.
Ha ha ha.
And the incident, man, they wanted to apologize.
The Eastman's credit union said they're sorry that this took place.
And, whew, man, this is not what we're about.
Well, yeah, kind of is.
I mean, you didn't have to blur the footage on the video because it was blurred itself.
So I don't know why people were shocked at the credit union.
I realize that it's a, you know, not-for-profit, member-owned,
financial cooperative, okay, we got it. And you've got 30 branches from Tennessee, Virginia,
and Texas. And, you know, this explicit footage went viral and we want to apologize.
Yeah, I mean, we're taking immediate action. And we're not going to tell you what the action is
or, you know, who is in the video, but they're company employees. And we're committed to
providing safe and respectful environment
to our staff and members.
We don't expect you to stand in line
and watch a couple
have sex while
you're waiting to make your deposit
or a withdrawal.
You'd go ahead and write your own jokes.
Then, in Tennessee,
we have the story that's kind of,
I mean, it's embarrassing.
It's embarrassing. This is America.
So, they're building a new
Nissan Stadium in
Nashville, Tennessee.
Like it's a two,
over two billion dollar project.
Okay.
So apparently on Friday,
someone saw a noose
hanging out somewhere at the stadium.
Now this is a giant stadium,
huge stadium.
And so somewhere in this development,
there was a noose hanging.
I have not seen a picture of this so-called noose,
but they're investigating it.
They shut down the construction site.
Shut it down.
There's no more construction.
they're offering counseling for the workers,
the city police,
and I'm sure the feds will be involved soon
because the news equals a hate crime.
A big investigation going on.
They're offering a reward for anyone that has information
to the whereabouts of the person that hung this news.
And I don't even know if they started a construction back up today
at this stadium.
So it's a billion-dollar, multi-billion-dollar project.
in Nashville, and we're going to shut it down because there was a noose hanging in the stadium.
Okay, so that's embarrassing to me.
Construction worker sees a news and doesn't just pull it down and walk away.
Makes one thing, I question the validity of the person who said,
Hey, isn't that a news?
Man, that's terrible.
I wonder what they're saying.
I bet they mean hang people.
Yeah, no, they don't.
But okay.
So even if they do, even if they do,
let's take a moment, shall we,
and say, okay, one person at this construction site
thought, you know what, I hate black people so much,
I hate people so much,
that I am just going to hang, make this rope noose
and hang it over this beam here,
just to remind them of how much I hate him.
Okay, so one person doesn't see
that and just take it down and we move on with our lives?
Nope, not in today's world.
We're treating it as serious as it can possibly be,
and we're offering counseling to all the construction workers,
and we cannot have, there's no place.
There's no place in our world where something like this can happen.
Oh, really?
Yeah, there's no place for racism or hatred in our workplace.
That was according to the Tennessee Builders Alliance.
Oh, okay.
I mean, we've reported the incident
and we've suspended work and lost an investigation.
Okay.
No, let's get back to work.
If you need counseling.
I'm sure that everyone didn't see the news,
the stadium, I mean, it's a huge stadium.
Who was hanging down at the other end of the stadium.
Now you've just heard about it like everybody else,
but you can't go on with your day.
Okay.
All right. We don't even know if it was a legitimate, you know, noose meant to horrify us,
or if it was actually just a rope tied with a knot that brought up lumber or brought up iron or brought up a box of tools to the workers.
We don't even know that. The investigation is still ongoing.
Okay. So let's just shut it down. That's embarrassing.
And when it comes back that it was a hoax and that one construction worker wanted to do that to piss off another construction worker
or that it was actually meant to haul tools up to the next level, something like that, what happens then?
Does the company and the Tennessee Titans and the NFL and the city who have now shut down construction for days because of this hoax,
how does that get reimbursed?
And do I still need counseling?
If I'm a worker and this happened even though it wasn't real,
do I still have to get counseling and will you still pay for it?
Well, I mean, you have to, right?
You offered it.
It's just the America I know and love, this would not have happened in.
But it did.
As long as we're in Tennessee, we might as well stay there.
I see where Lindsey Snyder, the head of In-N-Out Burger, or just In-N-N-Out, she told
Allie Bath, our very own Allie Beth on her podcast, that she is taken in and out from California
and moving into Tennessee.
So I guess Tennessee is the place you ought to be.
It isn't California is a place you ought to be.
It's loaded up the truck and they moved to Nashville City or Tennessee.
Quite a firestorming started, though, because I don't know.
I thought she had said that already before, but apparently, you know,
saying it on Allie Beth's podcast meant the world was shocked.
And they're taking another movie out of California.
Yeah.
She said there's a lot of great things about California,
but raising a family is not easy here.
Doing business is not doing easy here.
So we're picking it up and loading up the truck and we're moving to Tennessee,
according to Lindsay Snyder, the CEO and owner.
of In-N-Out Burger.
Now, there was no mention of
Real Estate Agents I Trust.com,
but who else is she going to get
to help her move?
I mean, when the time comes for you to move,
or Lindsay, whether it's in the
same town or anywhere else
in the country, you know, from California
to Tennessee, you're going to want a real estate agent
that's not just any agent.
You're going to want someone who's really good at what they do.
Now to fly-by-nighter, not on the
moonlighters, they're not going to cut it.

All right, so I'm reading about this guy in Massachusetts
who claims to have bought a second lottery ticket
after believing the first had already expired
and was shocked when both tickets won him a million dollars each.
So according to the release from Powerball,
this Paul Corcoran
purchased, or Cochran, C-O-R-C-R-A-N,
Corcoran, purchased a Powerball lottery ticket
good for seven drawings.
He mistakenly,
believe that the final drawing had already occurred.
He purchased a second ticket with the same
numbers, but unbeknownst to him,
both tickets included the July 9th
Powerball drawing.
And so, to his delight, the numbers
drawn were the
5-9, 25, 28, 69,
and 5, hud-hut,
which made both tickets
a million-dollar winners.
So he claimed the prize.
And he told the staff, I don't know what I'm going to do
with the money yet. Yeah, you're probably going to gamble
it away. But good luck to you. And thank
congratulations. So he didn't split a million. So it wasn't like he won a million dollars. And because
he had the second ticket, you know, splitting it to 500,000 would have meant the million.
They each one of a million. Interesting. That's interesting. I haven't looked at the lotto
as of late. What do we got going on here? Today is the 21st of July, 2025. So the power ball
has got to be having a drawing. Wow, 308 million for the power ball. 137.7 million.
cash payout. Yeah, that'd be pretty sweet.
Mega millions. What are we doing
a mega millions? 110 million
is the jackpot. That drawing is
tomorrow, the 22nd of July.
48.4 million cash payout.
Yeah, I could take that too.
I would be happy to take that as well.
So, yeah, I'd take a million.
Sure. Okay.
I saw a post online this weekend
that asked the question, would you delete
X for a year
if someone offered you
$17 million.
You realize I
tried to think of
there is almost nothing
I would do for $17
million.
I know.
I know.
Maybe that's the reason I will never get it.
Maybe it is. I don't know.
But delete X for a year,
that baby is gone.
Man, have a nice day.
I'll give up my phone.
for a year,
$17 million.
No problem.
Just an app?
Yeah.
Yeah, I'm doing that.
No problem.
I won't even,
now what would be more difficult
as if I couldn't talk about it.
But if I couldn't talk about it for a year,
give it up and then get the $17 million.
That would be difficult,
but the answer still would be,
yes,
I'll do it.
No problem.
I wouldn't go as far.
Remember the old Twilight Zone movie
where he was,
the guy was supposed to not talk for a year
He was such a talker.
He annoyed the one guy so much
that the one guy said he'd give him this large sum of money
And I don't remember what the sum was
If he just wouldn't talk for a year.
And so the guy had his tongue cut out
So that he couldn't talk.
That was the twist at the end of the Twilight Zone.
So the guy couldn't afford to pay him.
the money. He just didn't want him to talk.
But now he can't talk because he had his tongue
cut out.
Da-da-da-da-da-da.
And he's just, okay, we got it.
So, yeah, there's to be,
it's very few things that I wouldn't do
for $17 million.
And you can use your own imagination
on what that would be.
I would be hard-pressed
to give up ice cream, though.
No, there's no question.
about that. I love ice cream. I was looking at this new list of
the best ice creams. We tested them all. And what's the best
vanilla ice cream? Okay. Now they taste tested
12. 12 products, 12 different products of vanilla
ice cream. What is the best? And
I was looking at their rankings.
They claim the best vanilla ice cream first place. Trader
Joe's, French,
vanilla ice cream. I don't think I've ever had it. So it's
Trader Joe's French vanilla ice cream super premium.
Willing to try it, absolutely. I just don't
I don't believe I've ever had Trader Joe's ice cream. So that's the best
according to this group that, who is this group?
This group from Yahoo, I believe.
Is who did this.
Yeah, they did it at the Yahoo Home Office, celebrating
ice cream month, which July is.
So, okay, we have an excuse to try all the vanilla ice creams
thanks to it being national ice cream month.
And so they did the taste test at Yahoo's New York City office.
All right, with the 12 most popular store-bought vanilla ice creams,
Hockadous, Ben and Jerry's, Breyers.
Okay, so let's see.
I see, I saw Edie's in the picture.
I like Edie's ice cream.
The Edie's is really good.
They tried Turkey Hill.
You know, it's okay.
I know it's a pretty good brand.
Tillanuck or Tillamook or whatever the hell it is.
You know, I got you.
Okay, so let's say,
the Trader Joe's was number one.
Tadda!
Should have went the other direction, but whatever.
Trader Joe's French vanilla ice cream, super premium,
was the number one best ice cream.
Okay, if you say so, I'm not opposed to it.
Best vanilla ice cream in second place came in a tie.
So we couldn't even want to give it the whole second place alone.
Hagenas vanilla ice cream.
And it is tied with the Van Luin vanilla bean French ice cream.
Okay.
Don't know that I've had the Van Luin.
I had the Hagenas.
But, uh, all right, we'll see.
There's a couple.
Uh, Turkey Hill is in third place.
All right.
Turkey Hill's not bad.
And I don't, I don't mind the Turkey Hill ice cream.
But, and the vanilla bean is, you know, pretty good.
But, uh, third place.
All right.
All right.
Where is Breyers?
All right.
That's fourth.
Ben and Jerry's fifth.
They're ranking that.
Whole Foods.
Okay.
They didn't even give Edies in here.
Flavoral's picks overall place.
Settle but sweet.
Edies.
They give Edies.
Yeah, they're ranking Edis,
but they just win the top three.
Okay, they only ranked the top three.
The rest are in runner-up mode.
And doggone, it was,
aren't you just lucky that you were part of
the who's the best ice cream contest.
I don't think they will be.
But I'm willing I should do this for chewing the fat,
just to try French vanilla ice cream super premium
from Trader Joe's up against.
I don't know who I think would be the best.
They're ranking Van der LeWy.
I don't know.
Breyer's vanilla bean is pretty freaking good.
I have to go back and try Turkey Hill again.
The Edies is really good, too.
I do like Edie's ice cream.
all their flavors, including vanilla.
So there you got to join the fat ranking.
If it's frozen and cold and cold ice cream, yeah, that's good.
And I know that's not really true because some of the cheaper ice creams are too salty.
I just, believe me, I know it's not true.
There is superior ice cream out there.
In fact, the one company used to advertise with us, Brookers,
founding flavors ice cream
and that place is awesome
and another ice cream is awesome
and it's all homemade ice cream
and it's tremendous
and you can get it online
and have it delivered to your home as well
so I mean there are
super
ice cream flavors and companies out there
but and you can always go to
let's see what is it
Brookersicecream.com probably
just go to brookersicecream.com
and place your order
and have it delivered here instead of your home
Thank you.
All right, let's go to the break room.
I need something cold to drink.
Desperately.
I think it was last week.
I was just talking about the television show Tracker
and how they needed to contact me
and don't lose their character, Bobby.
And they either listen to me and said,
we don't care what you say, Fad Band,
or they didn't listen to me and they should have.
because I just see a story where Eric Grace, who is Bobby on Tracker, the television show,
and Abby McAnney, McAnney, right, McAnney, M-C-E-N-A-N-Y, however she pronounces it,
she played Velma on the show.
Both of those characters, gone.
Have a nice day.
Wow.
Okay, and they got rid of his mom.
They got rid of these other characters.
So now Tracker, Justin Hartley, who plays Coulter.
Shaw. And I guess
his lawyer, Fiona Rene
René Green in the show,
are the only two original cast members left.
Well, I've got two seasons. I'm looking to go into the third season.
They're giving all these people the boot.
Okay. I don't know what's happening over there,
tracker. I don't know if CBS wants it to fail.
Or if they're saying, no, we don't need all these other characters.
Justin can carry it on his own.
But, man, have a nice day.
The one guy I asked for you not to give him.
rid of my main man
Bobby on the show. Go on.
Have a nice day. So
all right. Go ahead. We don't need
Bobby on the show. I think you're
going to find out you do
or did.
I did watch Untamed
this weekend as well. It dropped on Netflix
on Thursday. I didn't get around to it until Saturday
though, which is a real problem.
It's about the National Park Service
agent in Yosemite
National Park,
Eric Banna, and
Sam
Neil star in it.
And it's pretty good.
It's six episodes.
Not bad.
Not bad.
There were a few times I thought, you know, kind of, you know, kind of lulled a little bit.
But there's some, the cinematography is beautiful.
And a few of the things that happen are really good.
The story, I felt like, I felt like I had it figured out.
And then I didn't.
And then I had it figured out again.
The one guy.
who I thought for sure was probably the dirtbag,
ended up not being a dirt back.
He was just an asshole.
And so that usually,
those,
usually the guy that is the dirtbag.
And no,
they just made him into an asshole.
I mean,
they just made him into an asshole
instead of a dirt bag.
Okay.
All right.
No problem.
And so, of course,
the,
one of the main bad guys
had to be the one character.
And it just had to be.
It had to be.
There was no other way around it.
And he wasn't as,
bat a guy as I thought he was going to be, but he was still a bad guy.
So go ahead, watch on tape and have fun with it.
Lily Santiago did a great job.
Eric Banna, of course.
I mean, he did a great job.
And Sam Neal plays in it as well, stars in it as well.
He's awesome.
The people that are in all the episodes is the William Smiley, which is
Bruce Miltz, Rosemary DeWitt,
Jill Bowden, which is his
ex-wife,
and Sam Neal, Lily Santiago, and Eric Bono.
They are in all six episodes.
So, and they spend a lot of money on this show, man.
They are out there in Yellowstone
and the flashbacks,
the flashback scenes,
pretty incredible.
And I did really like the chief guy.
Not really sure what his name is,
but whoever he is, who played the chief,
I liked him too.
He was in, I don't know, two or three episodes.
And I liked him a lot.
So untamed, go and watch it.
It's worth it.
Kind of Joe Pickettish.
And I kind of liked it.

Conditions apply.
Who died today? Who died today? Well, let's begin with internationally beloved singer Iris Williams. Don't pretend like you don't know who Iris Williams is. She had passed away at the age of 79. She was a well singer. Cause of death was not given. She's performed for Queen Elizabeth 2nd at Royal Albert Hall and for former president.
and Gerald Ford.
She was the daughter of an American GI.
And her notable hits
included He Was Beautiful
and the Welsh language rendition
of Amazing Grace.
So don't even pretend like you don't
know who Iris Williams
is the international beloved singer
dead at the age of 79.
Then we have Robbie Pardlo.
Robbie Pardlow, dead, and no cause of death was given.
Now, Robbie was just 46.
And he, are you telling me you're not familiar with Robbie?
Well, he rose to fame alongside Claudette Ortiz and Ryan Toby as part of City High.
Now, and for their 2001 hit single, What Would You Do?
Now, I think you know who he is, right?
Yeah, because that became the anthem for struggling single parents.
and climbed to the top 10 of the Billboard Hot 100.
In fact, they were nominated for a Grammy
for the best R&B performance by a duo or a group
at the 44th annual Grammy Awards.
And the group disbanded back in 2003,
but they remained very influential.
And so rest in peace to Robbie Pardlow,
dead at the age of 46.
Then we have Alan Bergman,
Alan Bergman, Oscar-winning lyricist,
who teamed with his wife Marilyn for an enduring and loving partnership.
And he has just passed away at the age of 99.
He died at his home in Los Angeles, according to a family spokesperson.
Apparently it suffered from respiratory issues recently.
But he continued to write songs till the very end.
You remember one of his songs called The Way We Were.
In fact, I believe that was the song that he won Grammy for.
He wrote all kind.
He collaborated with Marvin Hamish and Quincy Jones,
and he wrote for all kinds of people.
He wrote for Sinatra and Michael Jackson and Tony Bennett.
They all performed his material along with his wife.
And so rest in peace, she had passed away back in 2022.
So he's been struggling to continue to write and stuff.
but if they were partners, it didn't take long for him to pass away at the age of 99.
Then we have the D-Day veteran, who I'm sure many of you on TikTok, remember, Papa Jake.
He survived German gunfire on Normandy's Bluffs in 1944.
He's got 1.2 million followers on TikTok sharing stories to commemorate World War II.
And he has passed away at the age of 102.
So rest in peace to D-Day veteran, Papa Jake Larson,
who has passed away at the age of 102.
There was no listing of what the cause of death was,
except maybe I guess it was 102.
Then we have Eileen Fulton, Eileen Fulton, dead at the age of 91.
Eileen was part of As the World Turns.
And she was on as the world turns, I think, for darn near 50 years.
I mean, she was on there forever.
When you see her, you go, oh, yeah.
Eileen Fulton, yes.
I mean, she was the soap opera vixen.
And no question about it.
She died in Nashville, North Carolina at the age of 91.
Apparently she's been having was, her health was declining.
Doesn't say exactly what the cause of death was.
But that was it, baby.
She was a big TV star made it out.
And you're on, as the world turns for, what, 50 years?
Yeah, you're making a little bit of cash.
And that's a lot of work.
So rest and peace to Ellen Fulton dead at the age of 91.
Then we have the sleeping prince.
Remember the sleeping prince from Saudi Arabia?
He has died.
He was in a coma for 20 years, which is why they called him sleeping prince.
so he spent more than
more than 20 years in a coma
after a car crash
Prince
Al-Waleed bin Khalid El-Sad
suffered severe brain injuries
and internal bleeding
in a horrific accident
when he was just 15 years old
back in 2005
he was dubbed the sleeping prince
was kept on a ventilator in a hospital
but never regained full consciousness
Prince Al-Walib
was the eldest son of Prince
Khalid bin Talil al-Azad
who announced his death in a heartbreaking post on X.
He said,
Oh, rest a reassured soul,
return to your Lord,
well pleased and pleasing,
and enter among my righteous servants,
and enter my paradise.
And it went on for a little while, too.
So Prince Al-Waleed was studying at a military college in London
when he was involved in a devastating crash.
And after the accident,
they took him to the King Abdullah's medical sitter
in Saudi Arabia,
and Riyadh,
and that's where he remained all this time in a coma.
Wow.
I mean, it's another lifetime,
showing up to see your son,
hoping that he was going to re-connect with the world out of this coma,
and he just never did.
So rest in peace to the sleeping prince,
Prince L. Walid bin Khalid al-Assad,
dead at the age of 30.
then we have a 61 year old
man who died because
he got sucked into an MRI machine
I know I know
he was wearing a necklace and it had a big
locket on it and apparently he came into
the MRI room when his wife was getting done
or he thought was getting done with an MRI on her knee
and it sucked him in
because I don't even know
this MRI stands for magnetic renaissance imaging.
It's a giant magnet.
And they use giant magnetic fields.
And that's why they take all the metal objects out of you to do the MRI.
So you're not supposed to go in the room with metal objects.
He's got this big chain on.
And it sucked him in.
And his wife is screaming and everybody's hollering.
And he got him out of there.
He was still alive.
He was in critical condition.
And he has since passed away.
So, very sad.
And his wife, of course, was questioned on the news.
And just so we're clear, just because you're in mourning also doesn't mean you have to speak into a mic.
But I'm happy that she did.
And she's sad and she just wanted everyone to remember her husband.
I get it.
Adrian Jones McAllister says her husband, Keith McAllister, died after he was sucked into an MRI machine at NASA Open MRI in Westbury.
I haven't able to sleep
I'm barely eating
I just can't believe
Oh
It's about you or him
I'm gonna wrap my head around the whole thing
Okay
He waved goodbye to me
And then his own body went limp
Adrian said after she'd had an MRI on her knee Wednesday
She needed help getting up
She said she asked the technician to get her husband
And I said I yelled out he's name Keith
Keith, come help me up.
She said the technician went to get her husband and brought him into the room,
despite the fact that Keith was wearing a 20-pound chain around his neck with a large
rod machine still on.
They was getting there laughing and joking before he even came to the table.
When Keith got closer to Adrian to help her up, she said the unthinkable happened.
At that instant, the machine switched him around, pulled him in, and he hit the MRI.
He said she and the tech tried to pry Keith off the machine, but it was.
It was impossible.
We shut the thing down.
No doubt.
Pull the cord.
You can turn this damn thing off.
Adrian said that this was not the first time she had been to Bintanasa open MRI.
And she said he'd worn the big chain here before.
It's not the first time that guy has seen that gene.
Well, it's not the guy.
They had a conversation about it before.
Ooh, that's a big chain.
Adrian said Keith, a hardworking man who always gave his all, suffered several heart attacks following the incident.
I bet.
He was 61 years old.
And I loved him so much.
Oh, that's good.
And look, I get it.
He's your husband.
I got it.
And it's sad.
But is it the MRI's fault?
Well, we'll see.
We'll see what happens in that lawsuit.
I'm sure that we'll be coming very, very soon.
Rest in peace to Keith McAllister, dead at the age of 61.

Okay, quite a bit of news when the airline's business is going on.
We had the Delta Regional Flight, operated by Sky West,
that they had to make a go-round maneuver to avoid hitting or being hit by a B-52 bomber over North Dakota.
Just another day in the air.
We had the Hawaiian Airlines flight diverted back to L.A.
For the second time today, the 7879 Dreamliner landed safely on the runway.
We saw the video of it as the engine was on fire.
always good when you're flying to take up.
Yeah, we're going to go ahead and we're going to turn this thing around.
Thank you for flying Delta.
Yeah, you just talk.
Don't look at your side window.
If you do, it's, yeah, that engine's on fire.
So we're going to turn this thing around and they've got us.
They know they've opened up a landing strip for us.
No problem.
We should be able to handle it.
If the oxygen mask dropped down, don't you worry about it.
you should be fine.
Just breathe a lady.
Everything's fine.
Keep your trays and keep your seatbelts on,
your trays in the upright position.
Okay?
All right, good.
And we had another Delta flight with an engine fire.
We had other airlines, Alaska Airlines,
and I don't know why.
Alaska Airlines has temporarily grounded its entire fleet.
What?
What are we doing?
According to an FAA advisory,
The airline sought approval to ground over 200 planes under its brand.
It later expanded the stoppage to include planes from its Horizon Air Unit.
Alaska Airlines said the decision stemmed from a computer network outage.
Oh, okay, so you were hacked.
While the ground stop was lifted about three hours later,
so they killed it all last night,
and then they tried to bring some of it back,
but they had residual impacts.
Oh, okay.
So it's going to take us some time to get back to regular operations back to normal.
But we should be fine.
We should be fine.
Don't you worry about it.
We'll take care of it.
Okay.
I mean, it makes you a little nervous.
I mean, it wasn't that long ago we had the crowd strike hack, right?
Yes.
Yeah, let's not forget about that.
Let's not forget about that.
And I see where we get new T-T-tail.
of the Air India crash.
So, I don't know.
First they started to blame the pilot
that he had mental problems.
They didn't know what the deal was.
They weren't sure.
Then,
according, we got reports that
the fuel switches
were turned off and we thought that
that was a plane issue.
It doesn't look that way.
It looks like the pilot did that.
It looked like the pilot
turned off the fuel switches
to the engines after it took off.
The first off,
officer reportedly questioned the captain's actions before he expressed surprised and then
panicked. So it was like the captain turned off the fuel switches. It didn't realize he had turned
off the fuel switches. He just, and so he remained calm. And the investigation is not yet
determined whether or not the switches were shut off on purpose. And then it crashed shortly after
that. So which was it? Was it on purpose? Or was it just the captain screwing up and saying,
You know, I thought that was something else.
And no, it wasn't.
It was the fuel switches.
And you probably, Captain, you shouldn't have done that.
I'm giving her own she's got captain.
They probably shouldn't have done that.
So we'll see.
We shall see what happens with that, with the Air India Flight.
But they're still, you know, we're still getting reports from that ongoing system.
Just really crazy.
And I see now, and maybe if Delta, you know, continues to have engines burn,
and other airliners start having engines burning.
Maybe they won't do this.
But according to this,
Delta is moving away from regular pricing
in favor of an AI system
that determines how much each customer is willing to pay for tickets
and prices it accordingly.
Oh, okay.
So during their latest recent earnings call,
the Delta president said,
we plan to have AI set 20%
of the ticket prices by years end.
The system is already showing
amazingly favorable returns
in a pilot program that now sets
3% of airfares.
The three-fold increase
from last November when he
told investors that the ultimate goal was 100%
AI pricing.
Okay. So whoever
you are, that's how much we're
going to charge you. Yeah, that's
great. It's predatory pricing.
We'll see how that
goes. I don't know
that customers are going to be
happy about that because they're going to be talking
about trip related factors,
how early you tend to buy tickets,
how much
you make a year, right,
brace gender, other demographic info.
I don't.
I don't know. I think we stick
with the main price.
It's one
price and that's what everybody gets charged
and we move on. But we're way
past that. We are way past that.
So good luck.
Good luck.
God bless.
All right.
I got an email this weekend, Chewing the Fat at the Blaze.com.
And I don't know that it's a, that it's some kind of scam, but I don't know that it isn't.
Okay.
The email is titled, hello chewing the fat, which, you know, questions the validity of the emailer.
Just wanted to reach out again.
And I didn't get another email from this from this emailer.
So it's funny how they.
say that. Just wanted to reach out again.
I'm following up to see if you
had a chance to read my previous note about
my late husband's Yamaha Piano.
I haven't though, because you didn't
said one before. This instrument
holds profound sentimental value
for me, and I'd love for
it to find a new home with someone
who will cherish it as much as he did.
Now, I will say I would love a Yamaha Piano.
I'm a fan of Yamaha Piano's.
I'd be delighted to tell you more about its history,
condition, or anything else you'd like to know.
Thank you for considering this, and I'd appreciate any thoughts or suggestions you might have.
Best regards, Gene.
Well, Gene, I'd like to say I didn't see your first email that you claim you sent,
telling me about your husband's Yamaha Piano.
I'd be delighted to hear about the history and the condition.
If you're going to box it up and send me the old Yamaha Piano, go ahead.
Happy to take it off your hands for you.
if you're going to charge me
that's another issue
and I'm not really sure
I don't know that I should respond
to the email
I don't really want to
I don't want to create a dialogue
with the
Gene that titled it
Hello Chewing the Fat
so Gene if you're real
I hope I'm sorry that your husband's
passed away
and I'm happy that he enjoyed the
Amah Piano if you want to box it up
but send it to me here at the Mercury Studios.
Go ahead.
But, you know, I just feel like there's something fishy about that email,
and I don't want to respond to it.
Maybe it's just me.
I know.
Maybe it's just me.
All right, let's get out of here.
Let's leave you with the joke of the day.
This from Corey, this is the joke of the day from Corey.
Did you hear about the guy who stole a calendar?
Corey set the email to chewing the vet at the blaze.com.
Did you hear about the guy?
who stole a calendar.
No, I didn't hear about the guy
who stole a calendar. Yeah, he got
12 months. They say
his days are numbered.
That's so sad
because, see what it is, he stole
it. Now you got it.
