Blaze Radio Network And now chewing the fat with Jeff Fisher A study in Japan has for the first time examined how an interest in sex determines how long a man is likely to live.

Now the study says that middle-aged and older men with no interest in sex tend to die earlier as compared to those who are sexually engaged. So the conclusion is the result of a nine-year study held by scientists at Yamagata University, medical histories and stress levels of around 21,000 participants, both men and women, were studied by the researchers. All of them were 40 years or older. I thought that was everybody in

Japan. So the doctor that led the study that reached the conclusion that men with an interest in sex tended to live longer. Really? So more than 8,500 men participated in the study, of which 8.3% had no interest in the opposite sex. Of the 16.1% of the roughly 12,400 women who participated in said they had. had no interest in the opposite sex, notably a total of 356 men and 147 women died while the research was on. So just know that as long as you have an interest in sex, you will live longer. I don't know that I needed a nine-year study to tell me that, but now you have it from Yagamara, It's a Yamagata, I'm sorry, Yamagata University.

You have an actual study that you can hold up and wave in front of whose ever face you want to wave it in front of, Hey, if you have an interest in sex and you're a man, you will live longer. I have a few other questions inside the study as well, and they were not answered. So I guess I need a whole lot of study money and another nine years or so,

and maybe I'll get my answers answered. But for now, we just know that if you have an interest in sex and you're a man, you will live longer. Welcome! Welcome to chewing the fat. So it looks as though New York has decided,

hey, sure, our police department is getting low, but we're just going to bring in the robots. Yay! So they're going to be deploying. several new crime monitoring robots in Times Square and the city subway system. I mean, why not? So, according to Mayor Adams, we cannot be afraid of the technology. Okay, if we're not willing to move forward and use technology to properly keep city safe,

then we will not keep up with those who are doing harmful things to hurt New York. I will say that I'm going to be surprised if some of these robots, make it through the night in New York, but we'll see. We'll see. It wasn't too long ago, New York tried to add the diggy dog, the K-5 Autonomous Security Robot Dog, to help do some legwork around the city. And it was not happy. It was not met with open arms.

And so they got rid of it. So this particular robot, the egg-shaped K-5, stands five feet and a half tall, travels up to three miles per hour, is equipped with 16 microphones, four wide-angled HD cameras, sonar and lid-ar sensors. Okay.

So, I mean, you'll be able to, we'll be able to see the footage of it getting destroyed of the streets of New York. I don't want that to happen. I'm just saying that it probably is going to happen. The robot manufactured by, the Silicon Valley Base security technology company, Nightscope, they do.

I mean, we've talked about them before on this show. This robot can also recognize license plates and mobile devices that have been previously entered into a database. Uh-huh. Nightscope Executive Vice President and Chief Client Officer, Stacey Stevens, explained that the robot was created to provide security guards with improved situational awareness and record evidence for criminal prosecutions.

The robots are for observing and reporting. They are not intended to be offensive in their abilities. Yet. The yet was from me. And they also have just rolled out their robots in Philadelphia. Lowe's department store, or Lowe's Home Improvement stores, have put this at their store in Philadelphia. They said that the outdoor security,

security robots are part of a pilot project to heighten the security and safety of our locations. Yeah. I bet. I bet. So be ready for robots. Walk on the streets of major cities in America, wherever you go. We'll see if they can take a beating or not. I guess NYPD also plans to order a GPS tracking device that would allow law enforcement

to track cars remotely, a Star Chase GPS tracking device? Not real sure how that would work. So they just, yeah, we don't have to, yeah, we just follow the car through the GPS tracking satellite service.

I mean, I thought we were doing that already. If you watch, if you watch the show, that's one of the reasons I watch it because it kind of fascinates me. The FBI shows on CBS. in particular, the actual, just the FBI, but most wanted and international uses a lot of technology as well. But the FBI program on CBS uses technology,

and it's incredible what they show on this show of how they track people. And that is, I mean, you have to believe that the FBI and they're based in New York, this particular show. And New York and Big Sands. city police departments and our government enforcers, they, using modern day technology, it's amazing to me what they do with all the cameras and GPS and phone tracking and all other tracking devices and services. It's pretty incredible.

You're not, you might as well just plan on always thinking you're on camera. And so if you don't want your face on camera, learn how to walk with a hat and face down and don't look at the cameras and wear uh wear generic clothing so i mean it's that's incredible and they i mean they follow you so you get the idea of how they're tracking you and where you're going and uh really incredible this will come in this will definitely add to their tracking and security services with these robots right i mean that's what there therefore. I mean, the company says, oh, no, we're, we are just here to help. We are not part of any kind of offensive stuff at all. We're just observing and reporting.

Oh, okay. Well, good. And this is just robots and technology of tracking and knowing our whereabouts and what we're doing. I'm not even talking about AI and what's happening in the AI. world. I haven't even, it's been a while since you and I have talked about AI and I don't know that I want to get into it today because there's so much. I mean, we've seen the Tom Brady comedy routine that's AI, that's not really Tom. We've seen the Joe Rogan interview now that's AI that sounds, you know, remarkable. We've seen, we saw the reports of the lady who got a call from AI that claimed to have this lady's daughter for a ransom, which was not true. The people using AI with the daughter's voice over the phone were wanting a ransom for the daughter,

which the daughter was not in their custody or was not in their, they did not apprehend the girl. They did not have her. They just said that they did. and they had the AI voice her, voice the daughter. So the mother actually thought they had her daughter. So, I mean, we're coming a long way. I mean, there's plenty of people in the tech world

that's claiming, you know, hey, you know, they asked not long ago for us to take a pause on AI. I mean, America's not going to take a pause on AI because the rest of the world is not going to take a pause. I mean, former Google CEO Eric Smith, And I really do like Eric Smith. I don't know, you know, I don't know the man. I've never even met the man.

I've read his book. I've listened to his speeches. I believe that he's a very, very smart man, and I appreciate, you know, his talks. A man is, you know, a genius. But he has talked about saying that the tech sector faces a reckoning. What happens when people fall in love with their AI tutor? I mean, he said we can hardly keep up with how quickly AI technology like ChatGBTBT is being deployed

and he thinks the tech sector must confront how to use the technology so that it does more good than bad. Yes, I agree with you there, Eric. I don't know that we can do that, but I don't disagree. It would be an excellent idea and is an excellent idea for, the tech sector and all sectors to use the technology for good rather than bad. But since we are who we are, we're going to use things for bad along with good. It's just the way we humans are. So, I mean, we've got so much to talk about in the AI world.

Incredible. And I'll get into more of the Eric Schmidt stuff. some point. I mean, it's a long, it's a long interview and he is a fascinating man. And there's plenty of stuff. I mean, he's the guy that originally talked about, you know, years of before. We all laughed at him. Well, I mean, I did not laugh at him. I just, I thought, whoa, that's something to think about when he talked about. People are going to have to have a different identity once they become an adult. Because all. all of the information that they have as a child is going to be online and all the bad stuff that they did or or good stuff they did.

But usually, you know, stuff that you do as a kid that a lot of us did before we had technology to document it all has just gone now. It's like it never happened. But since we have we since we have the technology, it's all there for us to remember. And so we're going to have to have a new identity once we've become an adult so that all that old stuff isn't part of our life because we don't want it to be part of our life. And, you know, people thought he was crazy talking like that. How crazy you to think that sounds now? How many of us have thought, you know, I could use a new identity and not for bad. We've all talked about having a bad identity.

you know a new identity for bad but how about we get a new identity for good huh yeah i know i know tough to think about all right let's go to the break room i need something cold to drink desperately so the library of congress has added 25 new songs to be included in the national recording registry. Yay! So we get Madonna's like a virgin, Jimmy Buffett's Margaritaville, and Mariah Carey's All I Want for Christmas is You. Mariah Carey's All I Want for Christmas is You is not in there already.

This doesn't sound like America. So the other new inductees to the Library of Congress's registry include the 1985 theme song to the student Super Mario Brothers, the first sounds from a video game to be included. Led Zeppelin's Stairway to Heaven. Queen Latifah's All Hail the Queen. Deja Vu by Crosby Stills, Nash, and Young. John Lennon's Imagine.

The first mariachi, mariachi music recordings made in 1908. Sweet Dreams are made for this by the Eurythics. Daddy Yankees 2004 Reggieton hit Gasolina and John Denver's

Take Me Home Country Roads Well, that's not 25 songs, though. There are 25 songs that are going to be included into the registry because there's

625 titles now in the National Recording Registry according to the Library of Congress. The newest elections were chosen from a month more than 1100 nominations. So there's, we did the Super Mario Brothers. Deja Vu, John Lano.

There's some other songs. We do stairway to heaven? No, we didn't say Led Zeppelin. Four seasons, Sherry. The police is synchronicity. Ricky Martin, Living La Vita Loca, Bohemian Rhapsody by Queen and Jay Z's Blue.

print album. So congratulations to all the latest inductions into the Library of Congress National Recording Registry. Congratulations.

Wait, there's podcasts? So the librarian of Congress, Carla Hayton, said in a statement, we welcome the public's input on what songs, speeches, podcasts, or recorded sounds we should preserve next.

Well, I mean, it's tough to pick which chewing the fat podcast should go into the National Library of Congress and the National Recording Registry. They're all so good. But, I mean, there's a couple of episodes. I'll have to choose one that, you know, may have to go into the Library of Congress. I just received an email chewing the fat at the blaze.com from Casey telling me that he has listened to the CTF episode where I talked about curse word, the F word, was the perfect word, and it is. And he said he's listened to it multiple times, and it is classic stuff. I think that should go.

I think that episode should go in the Library of Congress, chewing the fat podcast. I'll find the episode number, and we will submit that to the Library of Congress and hope that it gets into the National Recording Registry. Man, do I want that to happen. Maybe I could do my Hunter Biden episode. Maybe I could do my episode of hippopotamus is coming to America. before cattle. I do that episode. I love that doing that episode.

There's a couple more episodes, too. But my, the perfect word, F word show, it's got to go. That one has to go. So maybe we submit several episodes of Chewing the Fat to the Librarian of Congress, Carla Hayden, and see if we can get into the national Recording Registry. That has to happen.

I want an episode of Chewing the Fat in the National Recording Registry. Okay, so those of you that have been concerned can now relax, okay? Splash Mountain at Disneyland in California is closed. All right, whew. They're finally closing it.

I mean, we got Splash Mountain at Disney World and Florida closed, but this one was still open. And I frankly had it. Okay, I was really pissed, but now I am not pissed anymore. So they're shuddering it. They're going to make way for Tiana's Bayou Adventure, which, man, I cannot wait. And that's going to continue the story that began in The Princess and the Frog.

So Tiana's Bayou Adventure, including the return of the iconic character from the film. So here's what we know. Because if you're concerned, this is what we know. Okay. So at the end of this, oh, it's still open. Wait a minute. Hold on. It'll be closing May 31st.

It's the last day of operation. Holy crap, I'm back to me and pissed again. It's not closed. This headline, another misleading headline. It's not closed. They set a closing date. It's the end of the month in California. So it's still open.

Okay? And I'm sick of Splash Mountain, all right? I'm sick of the whole thing. Let me just shut that thing down. What are we even waiting for? We've got the one in Florida shut down. Let's shut the one down in California. Okay.

What about the one at Tokyo? They're not closing that one? All right, I'm back to being pissed again. Wait, what? They're not going to close the Splash Mountain at Tokyo Disney? Wait, why? Close them all down. The whole thing is racist.

ruse on America. So Tiana's Bayou Adventure will take guests on an immersive Bayou journey, culminating in an epic Mardi Gras party for Tiana's community, which she also helps in power through a new co-op built into a new

incarceration of Splash Mountains Mountain. Guests will earn more about it. Learn. They expelled it. It's learn, not earn. About it all at the rides. Here, when Disney revealed, it will smell like bignets. Oh, man, I cannot wait for that.

I want Splash Mountain to shut down now, okay? California, I mean, we got Florida shut down. We got California until the end of this month. And the one in Tokyo is still open. I don't know that I could go to Disney World, Disneyland, or just Disney and Disney. general until I know the one in Tokyo is closed as well because man you cannot have that splash mountain open somewhere on the planet we also know now that Harry Potter the TV series is officially

happening at max yes David Heyman who produced all eight feature films is in talks to executive produce the original series based on the books jk rowling is going to be one of the executive producers, wow. They're still even letting her involved in anything to do with the company. I mean, it's her deal, I know. But according to HBO boss, Casey Blois, her

insights will be helpful. And I'm not going to discuss the controversy over the author's remarks on transgender people. So I don't even want to hear about it. Okay, so zip it. All right, it's her books. It's her deal. She's going to be one of the executive producers. Back off

me. That's me, not him. but the stories from each of Rowling's Harry Potter books will become a decade-long series produced with the same epic craft love and care this global franchise is known for HBO, I'm sorry, Max is spending a lot of money because that ain't going to be cheap.

So it might be worth watching. I mean, I actually watched the last Harry Potter film. I thought I'd seen them all, but I was working in the dining room and the TV was on and this Harry Potter movie was on, a Harry Potter one. I don't know what network was airing it. And I looked up and I saw a couple scenes and I was like,

I don't remember that scene. And then so I'm stuck and now you got me. Yeah, I'm hooked. I'm leaning over the dining room table looking into the family room at the TV. And I'm like, which Harry Potter is this? And I think it was the last one. So I believe I've seen them all now. And, you know, I mean, it's Harry Potter, so, I mean, you can take it or leave it with the Harry Potter stuff.

But, I mean, I felt like, wow, I've got to sit here and watch this because I hadn't seen it. It was really weird, though, because I thought I had seen them all. So anyway, you've got that to look forward to on the Max Originals with the new Harry Potter content for Max.

All right, you can follow me on Facebook and Instagram, Jeff Fisher Radio.

You can email the show anytime chewing the fat at the blaze.com. You can follow me on my YouTube channel, Chewing the Fat with Jeff Fisher. You can follow me on Twitter at Jeffrey JFR. you can order a cameo from me at Jeffie JFR. That's not free, but you could go to Cameo. There, my pimp at Jeffey JFR and order a cameo. I'll be at your be at your beck and call. Happy, sad, glad, mad.

But, you know, that's what the deal is with cameo at Jeffey JFR. Speaking of Twitter, though, I see, you know, Elon, it said we talked a little bit yesterday. If you're listening live, today is the 13th of April, 2023. Wow, the 13th of April. That's my wedding anniversary to this wife. So I suppose I should say happy anniversary to my wife. Thanks for putting up with me all these years. Yay, April 13th.

A day that will live in infamy to me. So happy anniversary to my wife. I love you. Thanks for putting up with me. Okay. So back to Twitter at Jeffrey JFR. I see where NPR said, yesterday that it's leaving Twitter.

We're pissed. Wow, okay, so we're not leaving Twitter. What we're doing is we're just not going to tweet. We're not going to close down our accounts. We have 52 accounts. MPR has 52 accounts. So they're not going to close them. They're not that mad.

They're hoping that they can, you know, get over their pissed off in this and they'll start tweeting again. But right now, they said we're not putting our journalism on platforms that have demonstrated an interest in undermined. our credibility. Well, first of all, did you have credibility, is my question to NVR,

but I digress because they obviously believe they did because that's what they said. Now, they also said that in this story, it talks about how news outlets don't gain much from Twitter. One NPR reporter found that less than 2% of NPR's website traffic comes from Twitter, and maybe that's 2% of what he posts

goes on Twitter comes back to the website I'm not sure those numbers are so so hard to get accurate readings from social media and what is what drives

what and what doesn't drive it's really really really weird so NPR is not going to be tweeting anything PBS also confirmed yesterday that it is going to stop tweeting oh no oh no

because they too received a government funded label on its main account. Now, PBS said they have no plans to log back in. Oh, no. What will I do without PBS tweets? I know. I probably actually follow them. I don't know.

I feel like I see a lot of their tweets or I used to anyway. So really cool. And I know that some people have left Twitter because Elon won't let you promote your substack anymore because subsstack. because substack has started a feature called Notes, which is a similar function to Twitter, and it leverages substats existing writers and audiences, and Elon has said, yeah, no, that's competition to Twitter.

No, you're not going to promote that on Twitter. So, sorry about it. So you're not going to promote your substack on Twitter because you're going to shoot notes, which is an actual competition to Twitter. Really weird. And people are pissed. And there's a number of people who make money and earn a living from their production and content on Substack.

And so they want to promote it on all the platforms they can. And now they can't promote it on Twitter. So they're mad and they're going to go ahead and leave Twitter over that. And good for them. That's your choice. You go right ahead and do that. I still use Twitter. I like it.

I don't know, you know, if he takes my blue check mark away. because I'm a legacy blue checkmark, you know, I may stop using it. I will say I've noticed that the algorithm has really slowed down for me. So I feel like because I'm a legacy blue check mark, that the algorithm is really deadening my tweets. I get less interaction. I've had less new followers. The growth is a lot slower than it was.

just really, I see that different. So maybe Elon's already throttling the old at Jeffey JFR because of my heritage blue checkmark. I don't know, we'll see. Then I saw an interview that Elon had with a BBC reporter. Now, the BBC reporter, James Clayton, sat down with Elon, and they did this on Spaces as well on Twitter, which I found fascinating.

And then when they were done with the interview, Elon kept going on this basis. So, you know, pretty, pretty, that's kind of slick of him. The only thing I really loved about this interview, and there was a lot of stuff in the interview that you could take. I haven't listened to the full 90 minutes of the interview. I don't know that I can take it. But, you know, I got it.

Your dog's the CEO. You're not the CEO of the company. I got it. Twitter is owned by X now or whatever. Yeah, I got it. But the one thing that I did enjoy about this interview is there's like a four-minute part of this interview when Clayton tries to say that there's hateful content, more hateful content, more racist content on Twitter. And how many times have we listened to interviews you and I here on Chewing the Fat or others, a Pat Gray show, on Gled show, on Stu's show, well, I mean a Stu show. I don't want to promote his stupid world, Stu World Show.

Anyway, on his, on Stu's show, how many times have we all broken down interviews and asked questions of the reporter in the middle of the interview, and the person being interviewed didn't do that? And you want to know, well, where did you get that information? Why are you asking me this question? You don't even have the facts behind that information.

That information comes from a lie. And you want the person that's being interviewed to say, hey, wait a second. And that's one of the things that Trump used to do from time to time is to fight and push back against the press. And they hated him for it and they still hate him for it to this day. Well, James Clayton does the same thing. Right? He asks, you know, there's more hateful content. There's more racist content on Twitter.

and Elon is like, well, wait, what's, what are you saying is hateful content? What do you consider hateful or racist content? And you're saying you get more hateful content on your Twitter feed. Give me an example of something that's through your Twitter feed. And then he tries to back out of it by saying, well, I don't use my Twitter account anymore. I haven't used it in weeks. but I used to use it over a long time, but I can't give you it.

It was just a beautiful thing because I can't tell you how many times I've wanted it to happen and it never has. So here's a couple minutes, an excerpt from that interview, and it's a beautiful thing. You don't like or hateful?

What do you mean to describe a hateful thing? Yeah, just content that will solicit a reaction, something that may include It is slightly racist or slightly sexist, those kinds of things. So you think if something is slightly sexist, it should be banned? No. Is that what you're saying? I'm not saying anything.

I'm saying... Well, I'm just curious. I'm trying to say what you mean by hateful content. And I'm asking for specific examples. And you just said that if something is slightly sexist, that's hateful content. Does that mean that it should be banned? Well, you've asked me whether my feed, whether it's... Yeah, your feed.

it's got slightly more. That's why I'm asking for examples. Okay. Can you name one example? I honestly don't need an example. There you know. Now you're back to the court. I'll tell you why,

because I don't actually use that for you. Oh. Because I just don't particularly like it. But you said a lot of people, a lot of people are quite similar. I only look at my following. You said you've seen more hateful content, but you can't name a single example,

not even one. I'm not sure I've used that feed for the last three or four weeks. And I, how did you see that? Thank you. Because I've been using, I've been using Twitters since you've taken it over for last six months. Okay, so... Okay, so...

...for you hateful content. I'm asking for one example. Right. And you can't give a single one. And I'm saying... Then I say so that you don't know what you're talking about. Really? Yes, because you can't be a single example of hateful content, not even one tweet.

And yet you claimed that the hateful content was high. Well, that's a false. No, what I... What I claim... Yes. What I claim was, there are many organizations that say that that kind of information is on the rise. Yes. Whether it has a my feed or not.

I mean, right, and you can't name one. Like the strategic dialogue in the UK, they will say that. Look, people will say all sorts of nonsense. I'm literally asking for a single example, and you can't name one. Right, and as I've already said, I don't use that feed. But then how would you know that? I don't think this is getting anywhere. You literally said you experienced more hateful content and then couldn't name a single.

Right. And as I said, that's absurd. I haven't actually looked at that feed. Then how would you know this hateful content? because I'm saying that's what I saw a few weeks ago. I can't give you an exact example. Let's move on. We only have a certain amount of time.

Well... Yeah, wow. Wow is right. Because they say, and I don't have any proof of what I say to Elon, but I didn't expect you to back me into a corner and actually corner me about saying things that people just say, they just say. and we're supposed to take it.

I'm sure at James Clayton 5 isn't looking at his feed today because he won't like what's being said. This episode is brought to you by Peloton. A new era of fitness is here.

Boy, Jamie Fox has had quite an issue filming this new movie. He talked Cameron Diaz into coming back to Hollywood and, you know, filming a movie. She had retired.

And so then not long after they started filming, he went on a giant rant and fired people on the movie set. And then they found a bomb. They were getting ready to have some big explosion at the East London where they were filming it and at the Royal Docks. And they built this huge wall that was going to be there next to the dock where the explosion would take place.

And then they said, hey, you know, there's a real bomb down here. I mean, it was an old World War II bomb, but they had to shut down production and get the bomb moved. I mean, it's a, you know, good time. Now we find out that he had to be rushed to the hospital for a medical emergency. Huh. So Jamie Fox, who's 55, a Hollywood A-lister, had to be rushed to the hospital.

And they thought I mean the family were rushed in. They thought he was, uh, more than just unwell, man. They rushed to the hospital thinking that he was not going to make it. But he is now on his way to recovery. That's what's being reported. Uh, his daughter, you know, reported that on social media. He's on his way to recovery. So good for Jamie.

I'm happy that he's, uh, on his way to recovery. I realize that there's, you know, medical complications that you're on well. isn't it interesting don't i didn't say that though i know you're looking at me like oh uh there's another hollywood a lister that uh you know is sick wonder why they went down like that when he's a healthy 55 year old male i know i didn't say it though you did so don't look at me don't look at me like that all right they are uh they just want a little privacy now during this time and uh they want to appreciate you look we appreciate your prayers.

But we want a little privacy. All right, he's on the way to recovery. And there was quick action and great care. So why don't you just leave me alone? We want a little privacy now, okay? And don't start with me on what you're talking about right now, okay? Because I don't, I didn't say it. I know what you're thinking,

but it can't be that because they didn't say it. Okay? All right. Just be clear about that. You know, as a kid, I played Monopoly so much. We used to play on our front porch. I could remember playing hours of Monopoly on our front porch during the summer. And, you know, when it was raining and there was nothing else to do,

we couldn't play baseball, we couldn't play football, whatever. We played Monopoly on the front porch. And I can remember as a young adult playing quick games of Monopoly. We'd be so, what's the word I'm looking for, buzzed. And another guitar player in a band that used to live. with us that I used to manage, he and I would just sit up and play Monopoly by the hour.

I don't want to get into what we were buzzed on, but we would just play the monopoly if we'd play quick games, you know, and not the whole game, you don't have to play the whole game. You get to a certain point. You know, you're going to lose, you start again. And so we got this story out of Brussels.

So apparently there was a big fight where the players started a sword fight. over a monopoly game. That's awesome. I'm all about getting all wound up over monopoly. Hey, don't make me go get my sword. Okay. So I guess the fight started when a man,

an irritated man, approached the players with a Japanese samurai sword. The flight erupted around 5 a.m. Okay, when a group of four people playing the board game on the sidewalk, outside their home, they were loud and they were waking up the neighbors.

All right? So they wanted these guys to leave. It had to be a game for money, right? I mean, for actual money, you're playing for money, you're betting on this Monopoly game. It's 5 a.m. I believe that they were probably buzzed on

some of the same stuff that I was buzzed on when I was playing Monopoly at 5 a.m. in the morning. You don't play Monopoly at 5 a.m. in the morning unless you're having the assistance of some sort of pharmaceutical.

You can quote me on that. So the guy comes down and wants to tell them, shut up. You know, a father and a son came outside and said, you guys got to leave. Get out of here. And then the players got mad and said, no, we're not going to leave.

Get out of here. We're playing a game. We're in the middle of it. So the son comes back with his katana sword. And they start fighting. Yes. And the swords, the sword, the swords, the swords scabbard. The swords scabbard.

got damaged exposing the blade of the sword that's the sheath I don't know why they try to get so hoity tooty with their scabbard was damaged nobody calls it a scabbard maybe as a sword

elitist you do but you know the sheath got damaged okay so the player tried to grab the sword and remove the holster and the son tried to get it back so it really wasn't a I mean as soon as the guy

grabbed the sword and removed the scabbard, you know, the holster, the sheath, he should have just stabbed him with it, but then he would have been in more trouble. So both the Monopoly player and the kid were discharged from the hospital. The son and one of the Monopoly players were arrested, though, by police.

For fighting, maybe those guys should have left. What do you think you're doing? Play a Monopoly in front of my house? at 5 a.m. Son, go get your sword and your scabbard. This is ridiculous. Oh, and yesterday,

I got to get out of here, but yesterday I see where it was announced, I knew it, that Harry would go to the coronation without Megan. There was no way

Megan was going to go. And that was the holdup, right? There was no way Megan was going to go. And Harry did not want to miss it. He doesn't want to miss it. He doesn't want to miss the

coronation of his dad being king. I mean, he's still a royal, right? I know they've, I know that I, we could go down the road of the family, you know, fighting and everything, but he's still the royal. And his dad has been, you know, just itching to be king ever since before Erie was born. And so, you know, now's the time. And there was no way Megan was going to go, right? So he has to go.

He has to go. He has to. And so Megan, I'm sure, was fighting tooth and nail to get him to stay and not go to this coronation. So it's reported now that he is going to go to the coronation without Megan. Now is the time, William and dad and anyone else, all his old friends, get him together. It's going to be at this coronation without the ball and chain. And you got to try to talk him into Harry, what do you do? doing bro you gotta cut that loose you gotta cut her loose now i was reminded when i uh tweeted this uh yesterday

when the news broke i commented that megan will have to unhook the old ball and chain and uh you know the intervention needs to happen but i was also reminded by abby normal lesbian, he, him in parentheses on Twitter, replying to my tweet, reminding me that his balls are still in her purse, though. Very true. Very, very true. So it's going to be a tough intervention, man.

I don't know that it can happen over the short period of time for the coronation because she's going to have him, you know, in and out. You could quote me on that. She will have him in and out. That's exactly the problem. That's exactly the problem. Something has to be done, though.

Something has to be done. You can quote me on that. Stream and subscribe to more Blaze Media content at theblaze.com slash podcasts.
