And now, chewing the fat with Jeff Fisher.
As if there's not enough going around about the Royals as of late,
Buckingham Palace is now looking for a new communications assistant.
The new staffer role includes ensuring the Royals' communications consistently spark interest.
The job posting advertises an annual.
annual salary of about $32,700 a year and 37.5 hours a week to work. No thank you. Not for $32,700.
No, thank you. What you'd have to go through to be an insider at Windsor, I mean, it might be
enjoyable, I guess. It's definitely
a stepping stone. But
no, thank you.
I mean, you're going to have to work on
state visits and ceremonial
events, and you're going to have
to make sure that the communications
consistently spark interest
and reach a range of audience.
Yeah, they all do. All
eyes are on the royals.
So,
you're going to have to deal with the king.
You're going to have to deal with the prince.
You're going to have to deal with
Kate. I mean, we have the Kate Spiracy going on as we speak. Do you want to be part of that? No, thank you.
Not for $32,000 a year. Nope, I'm good. Probably getting the boot anyway, because I would say,
Kate, as the communications assistant, why don't you just walk out on the balcony and give everybody
a little bit of a wave and then walk back in? And then everybody knows you're fine. And we're good.
and they would say, you're fired.
Welcome!
Welcome to chewing the fat.
It isn't just the royals that are in turmoil.
I see where the Vietnam president,
Vovang Thung,
who I'm a huge fan of the Vietnam president,
Vovang Thun.
He has resigned one year after taking office
after reported unspecified violations
of the,
governing communist party's rules.
Huh.
Then we have the Irish Prime Minister, Leo Verdeca.
He's stepping down.
I guess he's going to wait until a successor is chosen before he actually goes back home.
But he cited personal and political reasons.
Huh.
And then in Brazil, we have federal police indicting their former president,
uh, bolasenaro.
over allegations that he falsified his COVID-19 vaccination data in the country's public health
database back in December of 2022.
He doctored those to falsely indicate that he, his daughter, and close associates had received
the vaccine.
He also faces charges of criminal association for allegedly conspiring with his aides to enter
the false data.
How dare he? How dare he?
The news follows a year-long investigation into whether the then-president, who was openly skeptical of the vaccines, forged his vaccine card to bypass international entry requirements.
This marks the first indictment for the former president who faces several investigations, including corruption related to vaccine purchases from Indian pharmaceutical company.
biotech in 2021 and an alleged coup attempt in 2022.
Now, Brazil's prosecutors will now decide whether to file charges,
which would then be judged by the Supreme Court of Brazil.
I guess if they take it to court,
then he's found guilty he could face 12 years in prison
for falsifying this health data.
That's interesting.
That's interesting that they're going after him for,
I mean, they must not have anything else against them.
Well, they did mention that whole alleged coup attempt,
but just for falsifying his COVID-19 vaccination data
and his daughter and his close associates,
and he made the workers, the aides enter the data.
How dare him?
That's just, I mean, that's, what are we talking about?
Vietnam, Ireland.
Brazil. Oh, and then there's Niger. I love Niger. Beautiful this time of year.
They're telling the United States Air Force and our military base in Niger, get out.
Okay. Air Base 201. It's the largest construction project in history. It's a massive drone center that
cost American taxpayers. That's you and me. $280 million. It doesn't sound that bad when we're talking about billions going to other.
countries. Thanks to the change in the Nigerian leadership, we're getting out. The new nationalist
government, which took power in a coup last year, has been trying to get rid of us, and we won't leave.
The Nigerian colonel Amendao Abdrabana ordered the U.S. troops out, declaring that the American
presence in the territory of the Republic of Niger is illegal. And the Biden administration is stalling.
There's a Pentagon spokesman said, yeah, you know, we're seeking clarification.
The clarification is he said it's illegal.
Get out.
But we're waiting for clarification on the Nigerian government's comments.
I'm not quite sure what is unclear about get out.
But it seems to be unclear to the United States Pentagon and this administration.
So we'll see what happens.
It's interesting that the military, the man who is in charge of Niger, was trained by us,
to fight against Islamic rebels against al-Qaeda and the Islamic State and Boko Haram.
But the problem has only gotten worse, and we trained them, and then he took over the government and said, yeah, go ahead and get out.
Wow. Okay. All right. Good to know you. Take care. But what is, uh, what is I'm clear is what he meant by, it's illegal.
So we still have Air Base 201, uh, inhabited by United States Air Force military. But we'll see for how long.
And our military, uh, soldiers better not, uh, come to harm, uh, in Niger.
I'll tell you that.
Oh, and then in Russia, they were to launch three astronauts to the International Space Station,
scheduled to lift off today.
For those of you listening live, it is the 21st of March, 2024.
But, no, they, they didn't happen.
The launch was aborted 20 seconds before the liftoff, and no cause was given.
But NASA said the crew was safe and would be extracted quickly.
from their Soyuz capsule.
Yeah, because one of the astronauts, Tracy Dyson, an American,
was, you know, headed back to the space station.
So we'll see what happened with that.
I know in a few couple of years ago,
they had the Soyuz rocket carrying the NASA astronaut on it.
Nick Haig, and that took off.
That actually, that actually launched.
Who's a good little rocket launcher?
You are Russia.
But then two minutes into the launch, they said,
oh, yeah, no, hey, no, something's wrong.
And they set the rescue capsule into a ride back to a safe landing
because that's as far as they got.
They were into it two minutes.
So I saw, I will say this,
I saw SpaceX launch some satellite rockets the other night.
I saw SpaceX launch some,
now long ago we saw them launch astronauts headed to the space station so it was going to get crowded
up there anyway probably good that Russian launch didn't happen I will say this though
we're still in partnership with Russia over the space program that's kind of it's kind of strange
it's got to be one of the last remaining things that we do with Russia I mean there's plenty
attention between Russia and the U.S. and the whole you know that little thing they got going on over
there in Ukraine.
But we're still together for
the space program? Interesting.
Interesting.

The United States
remains the world's undisputed leader
in wealth accumulation. Duh.
But according to London-based investment migration consultancy, Henley and Partners,
and I love the London-based investment migration consultancy, Henley, and Partners,
they released their 2024 USA Wealth Report.
Certain parts of America are seeing rich residents rise rapidly.
So there's plenty of places where rich people are going.
Scottsdale, Arizona, came in second after Austin, Texas, in terms of millionaire growth in this past decade.
Florida's Palm Beach and West Palm Beach have seen their millionaire populations rise by 93% in the last 10 years.
Almost doubled.
Wow.
Cities such as Austin, Miami, Scottsdale are gaining residents while the traditional hubs like L.A. and New York and Chicago.
Not so much.
Those cities are declining.
Big surprise.
Now, New York City, still, you know, the most millionaire rich city in the U.S.
by a significant margin.
I mean, they say that there are 349,500 millionaires in New York.
Wow.
744 centimillionaires and 60 billionaires in New York calling it home.
But they claim that it's only experienced a 48% growth since 2013.
I would say that it's gone way down the last year.
Keep going after those businesses and finding them.
That'd be great.
Austin, Texas, meanwhile, home to 32,700 millionaires,
92 centa millionaires, and 10 billionaires
experienced a 110-millionaire growth rate over the same period.
That's the largest increase in the U.S.
In second place, I mentioned Scottsdale, Arizona,
had 102% growth rate.
And just incredible.
Of the 11 cities ranked in the reports America's wealthiest cities data,
New York and Los Angeles were near the bottom.
Chicago took dead last.
New York and L.A. saw significantly less wealth growth.
Yeah, no kidding.
And then, I mean, we still have the metros of Dallas, Seattle, Houston, Boston,
and sadly, Washington, D.C., which I don't like to see on this list,
as growing.
Wealth is growing in those cities, big time.
So if you want to move to one of those cities,
or maybe you live in one of those cities
and want to get the heck out,
don't count specifically on winning the lotto.
I see where no one won the Powerball again last night.
So it's up to $750 million for the jackpot.
$357.3.3 million is the cash payout.
That drawing is Saturday,
March 23rd. Then you have the mega millions. That drawing is tomorrow night, Friday, the 22nd of March,
for $97 million jackpot, $461.061 million cash payout. Let's have a moment. And just think for a moment
what we would do with either the $977 million jackpot or the $750 million jackpot.
Okay, I know probably other than, you know, signing the ticket and putting it in a safe and then getting my ducks in the row,
part of getting my ducks in a row would be to find a new place to live.
And that's when I would contact real estate agents, I trust.com.
Because when you absolutely have to positively buy or sell a home, you need real estate agents you can trust.
And that's why you get a hold of real estate.
estate agents I can trust.
It's not I can trust, but that's what you
want is real estate agents
I trust.com.
It has real estate agents that you can trust,
but the name of it is
real estate agents I trust.
I mean, really, the name does
say it all, right? I mean, it's
it's Glenn Beck's company. He started a long time
ago. He's tired of dealing with all
those incompetent real estate agents
and he figured you might be too. Uh, yeah,
because home buying sucks.
and it's a lot more work than you think it is,
and they try to confuse you with a bunch of paperwork,
and you don't want to be making any mistakes.
So go to real estate agentsitrust.com.

All right, let's go to the break room.
I need something cold to drink desperately.
So the other day we talked about how the global chocolate industry is facing its worst crisis
and prices are going through the real.
roof and we're not going to be able to enjoy chocolate anymore unless it's for, you know,
a million dollars a cookie.
Well, then I see a new viral trend coming out of France, which looks awesome.
And why I have not made this before, I don't know, but it will be made in my home.
Well, probably not by me, but it will be made in my home.
It's the new crookie, the key, the crookie.
this key then quirky
C-R-O-O-K-I-E
it's a croissant
filled with chocolate chip
cookie dough
so
that looks
and sounds
awesome
and I don't know
what award-winning
you know
boogey little Paris chef
bread company
came up with it
but it
It looks awesome.
So it's, again, it's the crookie.
And it is a croissant, a pure butter croissant.
And it is filled with cookie dough, chocolate chip cookie dough.
Yum, yum, yum.
Now, according to this place in France, where they made it,
the seventh best croissant in the Al-de-D-France,
reason in 2022 is made every morning with a 24-hour fermented milk sourdough and layered with
chariot butter it also uses cookie dough one of the best and purest chocolates in the world
and so that's got to be like a really expensive but it looks really really good and I want
one right now the French have that and then now I find out that
that they are, they've fallen.
They've bent the knee to American fadness.
Fast food restaurants are growing exponentially in France.
You know, stores like McDonald's, Burger King, Popeye's chicken is all opening up in France now.
And they have, you know, an incredible, it's just growing.
And now France has 1,500 McDonald's stores.
I just feel like that's just wrong.
It's France.
What are we doing?
We don't want McDonald's in France.
Do we?
You know, I honestly, do I care much about France?
Not really.
But it just kind of bums me out that when I think of France,
I think of, you know, croissants being baked.
And I sit on a street table with an umbrella.
And I have my croissant with my chocolate chip cookie dough.
Not Burger King.
Not McDonald's.
not KFC.
I mean, Burger King's got over 500 locations.
KFC's got 300 locations.
Starbucks is opening up.
They've got a few hundred stores.
And now five guys is starting to open.
I mean, we're Americanizing France.
And I don't like it.
But I'm sure that France does.
So so be it.
Okay.
So what is going on with Paramount Pictures?
Are we selling them?
Are we keeping them?
I don't know.
I saw where Apollo global management offered $11 billion for Paramount Pictures Film Studio.
Now, that's someone with inside knowledge.
I mean, they consider this the jewel of Paramount Media Conglomerate.
I mean, hello, it's got the Godfather, Mission Impossible, Star Trek, Transformers, yeah.
And Sherry Redstone, the media conglomerates controlling shareholder, through her stake
and the parent company National Amusements, which was Daddy's Company.
Sumner acquired it back at 94, and I guess it's been on the block.
So Sherry said, yeah, you know what?
I don't know that I believe you're $11 billion.
Let me go talk to a couple other people.
And one of those people is Larry Ellison.
Now, Ellison is trying to buy the whole kitten caboodle,
and I don't know how much that is going to be worth.
but his sky dance media has been trying to acquire national amort, national amusements, which is over all of it.
So he doesn't just want Paramount Entertainment or what is it, Paramount Pictures.
He wants the whole darn kit and caboodle.
So that's what I think Sherry Redstone is off as after.
She doesn't want to piecemeal it.
You know what?
Give me a whole bunch of billions of dollars.
And then I'll just go ahead and give you the whole kit and caboodle.
That'll be, in fact, that will be the title of the deal when Skydance Media purchases national amusements.
Kit and Caboodle.
It's hockey season and you can get anything you need delivered with Uber Eats.

Who died today?
Who died today?
Well, let's begin with M. Emmett Walsh.
M. Emmett Walsh, a consummate actor.
I loved so much of his work.
He has passed away at the age of...
88. M. Emmett Waltz. And I know you're going to say,
Emmett Walsh, who is that? If you saw his picture, he's definitely,
you go, oh yeah, that guy, he's been in so many movies, have played so many parts.
I mean, he's even said that, well, he had like, I don't know, 230 credits listed on IMDB.
His philosophy toward acting was, I don't want you to see M. Emmett Walsh.
I want you to see a garbage collector or a press.
president of Princeton or whatever. I do every man and also I play hard. Uh, just amazing and it's
sad that, uh, M. Emmett Walsh passed away, uh, dead at the age of 88. Now, don't look at me
like that because they said it was cardiac arrest. Okay, that's why that's what he died from.
So yeah, don't look at me like that. Uh, couldn't have been that because they would have said it.
They said it was cardiac arrest.
So rest in peace, M. Emmett Walsh, dead at the age of 88.
Then we have Chris Simon, Chris Simon, a former NHL forward, won a Stanley Cup with the Colorado
Avalanche back in 1996.
He has passed away.
He was at the age of 52.
Now, he died in his hometown of Wawa, Ontario, Canada.
and I mean, Wawa is beautiful this time of year.
Anyway, they said originally when I saw the report
that the cause of death wasn't immediately known.
So then it comes out this morning that it was suicide.
And of course, the family is blaming a CTE
because of all his years of banging around
in hockey. He played 15 seasons in the NHL.
So they believe that that is why he committed suicide.
we'll see you know you can't tell CTE unless you have your brain diagnosed after you die so we'll go from there and we'll see if the studies show that that was or could have been a cause but Chris Simon dead at the age of 52 then we have Daniela Thackeray Daniela Thackeray
dead at the age of 25 now she announced her own
death. The funeral was held earlier this week, but her last letter posted by her family
at the end of February, you know, after she died, received thousands of reactions and comments.
She said her letter was, I loved my life. Everything I had achieved was what I wanted. I loved
my job, my fiancé, my family, my friends, and my dog, and the house we were going to buy,
and the future we were making for ourselves. I chose not to mourn the life I was losing, despite being
so devastated, but to instead enjoy
every moment I had left.
Wow, just incredible.
She worked as a people administrator
for an advertising agency.
I mean, love that gig.
People administrator
for an advertising agency.
Okay, this was in England.
And she described herself as very healthy and active
until she was diagnosed with
this form of cancer
in the bile ducts.
which I do not wish on anyone.
8,000 people are diagnosed with this bile duck cancer in the U.S.
I don't know how many, it doesn't mention she was in the UK.
But holy cow, you do not want this.
You do not want this.
You do not want bile duck stone, cirrhosis of the liver,
or inflammatory bowel disease.
You get jauntous, dark.
urine, clay-colored stool, abdominal pain, fever, itchy skin, nausea, and vomiting,
unexplained weight loss. Oh, man. And treatment is, well, there really isn't any treatment.
And once you're diagnosed with it, they try to give you all kinds of chemotherapy and radiation
and maybe a transplant, but new. You usually don't pull through the bile cancer diagnosis.
I mean, it sounds like a very cruel disease.
And its full name is...
Calangia carcinoma.
Right.
That's kind of why we call it bile duct cancer.
Calangia carcinoma.
Yeah, that's what it's called.
And you don't want it.
Rest in peace to Daniela Thackeray, dead at the age of 25.
Then we have, well, let's keep going on who died today?
Willie James Pye, 59, dead.
Now, we went ahead and executed him in the state of Georgia last night.
He was executed for the 1993 murder of his former girlfriend who was, he did horrible things to her.
And he, he requested not to be executed because he was intellectually disabled and remorseful.
And so the last execution in Georgia was conducted in January of 2020, you know, before the pandemic.
So when they went before the appeals to the U.S. Supreme Court and the justices declined.
And then they went to some of the other courts and the Georgia Parole Board.
And they were like, oh, yeah, no, we're going to go ahead and execute him.
And they did.
And so his last meal was two chicken sandwiches, two cheeseburgers, French fries, two bags of plain potato chips, and two lemon lime sodas.
So Willie James Pie, 59, dead.
And many would say, good.
And we continue on with who died today.
Grande, the, I guess it's, it's, this is the full name, a Bennett's tree kangaroo.
So we, I'm not sure how old it was.
It doesn't say how old the Grande, Bennett's tree kangaroo was.
It was transferred to Ukraine from St. Petersburg in 2019.
I'm guessing that's St. Petersburg, Russia, not St. Petersburg, Florida, USA.
And it quickly, of course, became a favorite at the zoo,
given her attachment to humans and love of being hand-fed.
I will say this.
I'm not opposed.
I'm a fan of being hand-fed.
But I'm not a Benet Street kangaroo.
Now, they don't know.
They're going to perform, well, they say an autopsy, but isn't that a necropsy?
Anyway, they're going to determine whether she was pregnant at the time of her death.
Oh, no.
So they may have, she may have had a little one in her.
pouch as well. And so they are no words. No words. They typed up a bunch of them.
But they say there are no words to convey the pain and anger and the powerlessness that
happened to Grande, the Bennett Tree Kangaroo, who died in the Belagorad Zoo in Western Russia,
killed by an attack on Tuesday. You bastards, that's what this war is done. That's what this war.
has done.
All right?
I don't know.
I guess it was a Ukrainian attack.
I don't think Russia would be attacking themselves.
But we do know that Grande, the Bennett tree kangaroo, was killed in the attack.
So it was at least five years old, maybe six, and maybe even had a baby.
So rest in peace to Grande, the Bennett tree.
kangaroo then one more who died today it's a baby giraffe found dead at a zoo in
Miami I'm not laughing I'm not laughing I don't know how it happens but it was a three-month-old
female giraffe I don't know did they say that the three-year-old giraffe had a name I mean I
usually name them all right it doesn't say so maybe they didn't maybe this was just i don't know
a giraffe born on december 15th found dead over this past weekend when employees came in they are
performing a necrops ecrapsiesc at the at least zoo miami calls it to buy the proper uh terminology uh they
determined that she died of a fist i can't i'll be able to say this word in a moment of asphyxiation
after breaking her neck.
Now, when you think, how would a giraffe die,
you'd say, well, maybe the giraffe broke its neck.
According to Zoo Miami, that's not common for giraffes to break their neck.
But they believe that something must have startled the young giraffe,
and it ran directly into a fence, which then broke its neck.
and so the zoo staff were closely monitoring the herd for any indication of stress.
Yeah, why would the herd have stress?
What happened?
We watched our little three-month-old baby run into a fence and die.
So rest in peace to the three-month-old giraffe from zoo Miami.
They hope that it doesn't happen to any more giraffe.
Giraffes are now killing themselves in America.
Something has to be done.
Something has to be done.

Speaking of, you know, people who are dead, I mean, there's ongoing investigations.
The death of Angela Chow in Texas back in February where she drowned, she ran her Tesla into a pond on a private farm.
She was found dead after, you know, the car was submerged on a ranch in Johnson City, which is, you know,
right there it's 40 miles outside austin and they tried to resuscitate her for a long time and
you know just obviously didn't happen and originally they called it an unfortunate accident yeah
uh they also referred to it as not a typical accident huh well we got the blood work back and she was
heavily intoxicated when she perished in the car accident now remember she is the sister of elaine chow oh
that's the wife of Senator Mitch McConnell of Kentucky.
The Blanco County Sheriff's Office is now said that, look,
we've concluded that Chow's death was an unfortunate accident.
Her blood alcohol content was nearly three times the state legal limit.
Wow.
She was at a dinner party.
She frantically called her friends to tell them that she was trapped in the car.
Now, they tried to swim out to help her, but it was too late.
Wow.
Okay.
So in the story, it talks about, you know, she was in a Tesla.
And Tesla users, I guess, have complained that their design leads to accidental shifting into reverse when the driver intends to drive forward.
That may be, but that's not Tesla's fault when you're a drunk.
okay
when you're three times
the legal limit
of alcohol in your system
that's not Tesla's fault
okay sorry
also I know car safety experts
that said why you should do is
if you're going to the water
you should immediately
you know
lower your windows and swim out
don't try to call people
that waste seconds
yeah okay well she was drunk
and wasn't thinking straight
so it's not
I mean, it's just sad.
It's a sad thing.
And it is, as the sheriff's department said, an unfortunate accident.
Now, I asked her to rest in peace before when we originally did the story,
but Angela Chow dead at the age of 50, rest in peace.
Then we have the Boeing whistleblower, John Barnett.
That's an ongoing investigation.
He committed suicide, right?
And he was testifying.
And he apparently said,
to a family friend.
If anything happens to me, it's not suicide.
Huh.
Well, he was found dead in his pickup truck
in a Charleston, South Carolina
hotel parking lot on March 9th.
That's the same day he was due to
conclude his closed door testimony
and a lawsuit slapped against
his former employee.
Huh. So authorities are
still probing his
death.
Okay, but his family friend says,
I know that he did not commit.
suicide. There is no way that he would kill himself. The friend, I keep thinking it's a she. I don't
remember if it was a she or not, but the friend claimed that, yeah, it is a she because the
friend claimed Barnett had speculated to her that he might end up dead after he started speaking
out publicly about his Boeing related safety concerns following his retirement in 2017.
No, stop.
He said he wasn't scared of anything,
and if anything happens to me, it's not suicide.
That is according to the friend.
So, you know, the investigation is still ongoing on that.
We'll see if anything actually comes of that.
Or does it just go away?
I see where Boeing warned investors that,
this is going to come as a surprise to everyone,
it's looking at a big loss for Q1.
You think?
According to this little headline, it says,
struggles with the continued fallout
from a door plug coming off the plane.
Yeah, it's more than that, but okay, sure.
If you want to just blame it on that little door plug thing,
you go right ahead.
I mean, I don't think that Boeing is just going to go away,
but it's not going to be pretty for a while.
I mean, it's not going to be pretty for Planet Fitness for a while, as we've got the trans guy in the bathroom in Alaska.
They've lost, I don't know, half a billion dollars.
And we'll see that will probably continue for a while.
And I see where Hertz is going to be struggling.
It's not going to be pretty for a while either.
I mean, the CEO is out after his big gamble on EVs.
So there's several companies that, you can quote me on this,
it's not going to be pretty for a while.
And that actually holds true for everyone
with the way things are going in this country
and around the world.
It's not going to be pretty for a while.
All right, I'm going to want to get out of here.
I'm going to leave you with the joke of the day.
This one actually made me laugh out loud this morning,
and I have to share it.
I was in Walmart yesterday,
and this elderly lady was in front of me.
and her total came to $279.679.
But her card was declined.
So you already know what I did.
God will bless me one day.
There's a lot of groceries,
but I helped her put it all back.
That's so kind.
So kind.
I mean, that takes a lot of time.
$280.68 cents.
You know, $279.
And 68 cents.
Not as many groceries as it used to be,
but still takes quite a bit of time to put them all back and that's very kind so always important
