Hey, this is Jeff Fisher.
We'll get to the podcast.
First, though, what if there was a progressive liberal phone company
targeting conservative candidates and organizations?
Would you want to switch to a conservative phone company
to help fight against their liberal agenda?
Or do nothing and accept that as the cost of owning a phone?
Well, now you can take action.
That's why Patriot Mobile was created.

This is the Jeff Fisher Show on the Blaze Radio Network.
Hello.
Welcome to the broadcast.
888.
You can put a 1 before that.
9.0.3393 is the phone number if you'd like to participate in this broadcast,
since we are live and blasting throughout the world on the worldwide web at the blaze.com slash radio.
And I believe that we, as the United States, I was trying to find all morning exactly what happened to our
internet, but I believe ICAN is now in charge of our internet.
I don't believe we stopped anything.
I don't believe some of the state's attorney generals who filed a suit trying to block it were
stopped.
And the U.S. is not in charge of the Internet anymore.
Thank you, Barack Obama.
I heard someone ask a question the other day, and it's an interesting question, and I wonder
if it could be done.
Maybe we could just buy out Obama.
I let him leave early.
Just buy them out.
Here's your money. Go.
Retire early.
Stop working.
Stop doing what you're doing.
No, we love you, but it's time to retire.
Here's your money.
Go away.
You think you take it?
Not a chance.
Not a chance.
Not a chance.
Do you know how much money?
If you think that the Clintons
with the Clinton Foundation
have made a bunch of money
you wait until the Obama Foundation kicks in
how much money he's going to have
you think Hillary
is raking people over the coals
for money for that foundation
Barack will say
we just started the Obama Foundation
and thankfully
for our fine
people who wanted to be a part of it
and already donated, $18 billion.
We're going to do a lot of work.
I mean, it's just going to be unbelievable.
So I want to start with our mistakes yesterday on the big show, the Glenn Beck radio program.
We told you about a story that's a fascinating story about a sailor,
Lieutenant Savannah Frank, who told us about a number.
another military man who commandeered a raccoon to get his car started.
Now, Lieutenant Savannah Frank originally said, hmm, you know, I believe that was a quote.
Now, the story went after a night of drinking.
Petty Officer First Class failed the breathalyzer test that allows his car to start.
And since he was so drunk, he just walked across the street to a park, kidnapped a raccoon,
and force the creature to blow into the machine.
Now, you think to yourself originally genius.
I know. I do too.
And it worked.
And so as the car started and he was pressing the, squeezing the raccoon to breathe into the breathalyzer, the raccoon passed out.
And since he was drunk and the car started, he tossed the passed out raccoon off to the side.
Of course, as he's driving down.
the road, the raccoon comes back awake and starts attacking the man.
Raccoons are mean.
You've ever been around raccoons, man, but they're not the nicest of animals.
I mean, maybe they aren't other raccoons, I don't know.
And maybe you're going to say they're not all bad.
Okay.
Okay, raccoon lives matter too.
I got it.
But they're mean.
Any other raccoons that I have come across, mean.
And they're not afraid to stand up on those back-hide legs either.
and look at you like what.
Bring it.
I'm here for you.
So you can imagine having a mean animal like that,
not in a cage,
wakes up and remembers, hey, that's the guy that was squeezing me.
I got to get out of here.
It starts freaking out.
So he's attacking the guy driving the car.
And the petty officer is swerving to get out of the way of the raccoon
and smashed through a fence and landed in a pool.
That's the story.
And it's a fascinating story, and it's a genius story.
Makes one think maybe we should start, I don't know,
bottling raccoon breath.
Maybe it could, you know, come in a little bottle that you could have a little seal
that you could just pop over the breathalyzer blower and squeeze the can so you get some
raccoon breath in there and start your car.
I don't know.
That's just me thinking out of the box.
but let's go back to Lieutenant Savannah Frank who originally said,
hmm, I checked and I checked all the police records.
And while the police departments and we here at Camp Pendleton Public Affairs Office were highly entertained,
this story is not true.
Sorry.
Now, that's all I want to tell you.
Sorry, it's not true.
Very disappointing.
Very, very disappointing because it's a great story, but it's not true.
Yeah, and raccoons, man, they carry diseases.
I mean, if you haven't had your vaccine updates, look out.
I'm telling you, man, you need to get the shots, get updated.
The last time you put a, you know, maybe you put a hammered a nail in your hand.
Put a screwdriver in your hand.
Who hasn't done that, right?
When's the last time you've been visiting for babies?
I don't know.
Okay, bring out the ramby shot.
And it's about eight, you know, it's a jug the size of an oil barrel.
It's just a little shot.
Seriously, don't look at me like you never put a screwdriver in your hand.
Don't do it.
You know you have.
The last time, the last time I did it, and I know, I say that like I've done it before,
but the last time I did it, I was using a flathead screwdriver, which actually kind of saved me.
And I was trying to, I was taking a tire off a bike wheel, off a rim.
And so you take that, you know, I had a flathead screwdriver and I'm just popping the tire off of that rim off of my oldest son's bike.
and you're in the garage
and you're doing the guy thing
with the bike and I'm fixing the tire
and the flat head screwdriver
popped off of that wheel
and I rammed it right into
my hand between
my thumb and my forefinger
you know that loose skin there
right in there
and I remember seeing the screwdriver
in my hand
I had the handle in my right hand
and the flathead screwdriver
about halfway into my hand
and I remember stopping and looking
and go, that is going to hurt.
Because at that point it didn't hurt.
And it just entered into my hand.
That is going to hurt.
And I pulled it out.
And guess what?
A, it hurt.
But the good thing is that it was a flat head.
So it just pushed up against all the tendons in there.
And a lot of that, you know,
know, some people who, I don't know, are overweight, have a little extra skin there.
So that kind of saved me.
But it went in quite a ways.
I can still feel where it went in, though.
And that's when it.
I'm going to check the shot.
Let's have you to touch a shot.
I don't know.
Bring in the barrel.
Take a shot.
It's just a little shot.
So if you're going to start attacking raccoons, man, make sure you get the shots.
Because raccoons are mean.
Anyway.
I was listening to Michael Pelka coming in.
We'll get to the show.
I got stories for you.
I got all kinds of great stuff for you today.
But, you know, I was listening to O'Pelka come in.
First of all, I can't wait until the New York studios are down here in Texas.
Because I'm going to make sure that the radio studio doesn't have any access.
to the outside building cams,
because I know he always watches me walk in the building every week.
And this week it was a box.
It may have appeared to be dripping.
I didn't realize that the bag had split open inside the box.
And it was just, I was coming to work this morning,
and there's a place in front of the Lions Club in Keller, Texas.
And they're already out barbecuing.
I mean, it's like the barbecue day in Keller,
Texas or something.
And I mean, the smokers are going and the grills are going.
And what am I not supposed to stop and get some barbecue?
Please.
So I hear him do a story on the T-shirts for the Cubs.
Try not to suck with, you know, the glasses on it because it's got the Joe Madden glasses.
And I thought, and they're not letting people into Bush Stadium in St. Louis.
And while I, you know, I kind of, I just, I just kind of follow baseball, not really.
It used to be a huge fan, and I'm not really a big fan anymore.
You know, the, I don't know.
Rangers are doing good here in Dallas.
And, you know, I lived in Tampa Bay.
I filed the raise, and there were some times when they were pretty good.
It was fun.
And, you know, I mean, we were all part of the broadcast.
I was part of the, you know, the opening day broadcast, the first.
time the race played ever.
And, you know, I had sent my dad and my son to the first game, all that kind of stuff.
It was cool.
This is baseball.
And then growing up, you follow baseball.
But I really haven't.
I lost touch with being a huge fan of baseball.
But I was looking at the Cubs.
I mean, they got the best record in baseball right now.
We're heading into the playoffs, man.
We're heading into October.
So I'm wondering, are you kidding me?
Stadium's, especially Bush Stadium in St. Louis, Missouri.
Missouri and not letting fans into the stadium wearing a try not to suck t-shirt.
Are you freaking kidding me?
We got NFL players that won't stand up during the national anthem.
We're not letting families into a baseball stadium with a t-shirt and a saying that was started from the manager, Joe Madden,
who used to manage the race, by the way.
Come on now.
Come on.
So I look it up
Because I hadn't heard about it
Sorry, I apologize
I hadn't heard about the try not to suck
With the Cubs story
And if I had I blew it off
Well, it's actually a little while ago
That they stopped some people from coming in
And they said
No, you have to turn it inside out
Or change
Because we can't allow that into the stadium
I'm sorry, that's just the way it is.
Well, no.
And when they talked to Joe Madden about it, he said that policy is foolish.
Bush Stadium rule that forbade the word suck to appear on clothing at the ballpark.
Come on now, St. Louis.
Well, now they're saying that, well, we're going to let some people in.
Some people have actually been in the stadium wearing the Try Not to Suck t-shirt.
Our event staff will exercise a degree of discretion in interpreting the context of the use of the word.
This shirt Joe Madden had made to benefit charity that say,
Try Not to Suck, will be allowed under the new approach.
Isn't that special?
So they didn't change a thing.
They actually didn't change anything.
What they did is they told the people at the door,
If it's a Joe Madden T-shirt about the Cubs try not to suck, go ahead and let them in.
Otherwise, we're going to get bad press.
But if it's a kid with a black shirt on that says, you suck, turn them away.
That's what's going to happen.
That's what's going to happen.
Come on, Bush Stadium.
In St. Louis, freaking Missouri.
We'll let him in for a T-shirt because the word suck is on it.
I get it.
We all had our mothers tell us, don't use that.
word. And I find myself
doing the same stupid thing with my children.
I'm not the word police, but sometimes you have to
you know, you got to say, you know, hey, this isn't the place for that.
I don't care what you say around me, but don't say it in public like that.
And the word suck, you know, is a bad, it sounds bad.
I know that.
But, uh, so, what would happen if your children saw a t-shirt at a baseball
stadium. Hey, look, Dad, that
T-shirt says, try not to suck.
I know. We're Cubs fans. That's what the
manager said. Oh.
Oh.
Well, yeah, that's right.
We're Cubs fans. We've got the best
record of baseball right now.
You know what? We should try not to suck.
Yeah,
we should.
So good luck, Rangers. I know they're going to
the playoffs. I don't want to talk to baseball.
I don't. But, you know,
hey, the razor and
town this weekend. It's the last
regular game of the season.
Might have to head over to Arlington and catch a little
baseball at the end of the season.
Doubtful, though.
All right. We'll get to

All right. A lot of
drugs in the stories this week. I know
it's a surprise that I'm looking at the
stories about drugs, but
man, we've got a big drug story
coming out of Canada.
We've got a big drug story out
of Massachusetts. This Massachusetts story
is fascinating to me.
And since it's fascinating to me, I'm going to
talk to you about it.
And then we've got the drug story of our Philippines leader, Dorte.
I hope I'm saying that right.
Duertory.
I got to pronounce that right.
Give me the pronunciation of that.
Bring up in New York, bring up the pronunciation on the computer and play it over the, play it over the air of the president from the Philippines.
Radarigo, Dorte.
I think that's right, but I might be, I want to pronounce it correct.
because this guy just liking himself to Adolf Hitler.
Ah, I'll worry about it.
I'll worry about it.
The State Department described the remarks.
Oh, it's a rambling speech.
A significant departure from America's partnership with the Philippines.
Yeah, it has been.
It has been a big significant departure since he's told, said, hey,
because I don't even want to be part of the U.N.
and the United States doesn't have to tell me what to do.
That's his deal.
That's what he believes.
He took office by saying, hey, kill the drug people.
I want you to kill the drug dealers and I want you to kill anybody that has a drug problem.
I'm fine with it.
He told reporters that he had been portrayed to be a cousin of Hitler, noting that Hitler had murdered millions of Jews.
Duarte said, hey, there are three million drug addicts in the Philippines.
I'd be happy to slaughter them.
if Germany had Hitler, the Philippines would have, and he pointed to himself.
So, you know, my victims, I would like them all to be criminals to finish the problem of my country and save the next generation from perdition.
Do you have the pronunciation of Duarte?
Duterte, President Roderico Duterte.
I know I was saying that wrong.
Hey, President Rodergo, what is it again?
Duterte.
Duterte.
I apologize.
Okay?
I apologize.
Don't slaughter me.
Okay?
Don't slaughter me.
Now, you know, he's already, they've already killed thousands in that country.
Thousands.
Since he took office, June 30th, over 3,000 people have been killed.
Oh, yeah, they were drug dealers.
Oh, yeah, they were addicted to drugs.
No problem.
You just kill them all.
Eh.
Don't worry about it.
Don't worry about it.
And if the United States says anything bad, tough.
Beat sand to the U.S.
Because I am president.
What is it again?
Duderte.
Yeah, du Derete.
From Philippines.
The Jeff Fisher Show.
A Blaze Radio Network.
Dutante.
The Jeff Fisher Show is on.
Welcome to it.
888-90-3-3-9-3-3-9-3-3-3-190.
is the phone number.
Dutante.
That's the president of the Philippines.
Good to go.
He just wants to be Hitler.
I just want to kill drug dealers, not Jews.
I don't want to kill a particular
an entire race, religion of people.
So?
I don't care.
I don't care what race you are, what religion you are.
if you're doing drugs or you're a drug dealer, dead.
That's how he got into office.
Good for him.
So Massachusetts has got the, this been going on for about three years now.
And there's going to be a bunch of, a bunch of so-called criminals that have been in jail are going to be let loose.
They've had two lab techs for, I mean, I'm sure they're had a better title than that.
First one was Annie Dukon.
I mean, she said, hey, my deal is to get users off the street and into prison.
She's already in jail.
She pled guilty to obstruction of justice, tampering with evidence, perjury, falsification of academic records.
And she got three to five years in prison.
Now we know that she falsified tens of thousands of reports.
She just mark them positive.
I don't need to test them positive.
And then when the whistleblowers reported it, the lab covered the misconduct up and allowed her to work.
Nine years, this went on.
Okay?
So she had about 24,000, more than 24,000.
In fact, they give the exact number, 24,391 defendants convicted on the basis of potentially falsified evidence.
Wow.
So that is amazing.
And they're still, as we move on in the story, you'll see where Massachusetts is like, so.
So.
So, well, a second Massachusetts crime lab now, you know, covers the state.
Sonia Farak, F-A-K, former employee of the Amherst Crime Lab, convicted of regularly stealing drug samples and conducting analysis as, well, there's the story, blazingly high on crack cocaine, methamphetamine,
amphetamine, ketamine, ecstasy, and LSD.
She may obtain in about 18,000 cases.
So now you're looking at over 42,000 wrongful convictions.
Ha!
That's all.
That's all.
No problem.
Now, Farak did this for eight years, man.
Just going into work, getting high off the samples.
Now, when they found out, it was like, what happened to some of the samples?
I don't know.
I thought it was right over there.
You know, it's not.
Huh.
I don't know what could have happened to it.
And then we're, yeah, we know what happened to it.
You used it.
But now a Massachusetts like, you know, look, that's a, you know, most of them are probably guilty anyway.
Right?
You know that as well as I do.
So let's not jump the gun on trying to overturn all these cases.
Hey.
So this summer, anticipating that the court would require Massachusetts to inform the Dukin defendants,
that's a little over 24,000, almost 25,000 people,
they thought, oh, you know what?
They're going to make us inform them.
You know what?
We'll send out a letter ourselves.
So they sent out a letter, a notice, to explain the defendant's rights and implied that they might be re-prosecuted and forced to reserve their sentences, which, you know, is kind of true.
The letter included a Spanish translation, but it was garbled and unreadable.
and it was sent in a cryptically marked envelope purporting to be both from Massachusetts and the RG2 Systems Incorporated,
which was the lab, I believe, to all artwork appearances, the letter was spam, and probably wasn't believed anyway.
But instead of saying, hey, we're going to get you off, you probably get off from this charge.
Yeah, and we're also going to retry you again.
So don't worry about it and don't think about coming back to us, okay, with these cases.
you live with what we've done to you.
You don't like it?
Tough.
The state wants to just have it all go away.
Let's just forget about it.
But this is a perfect time for the state to say, to walk away, right?
Just to make these cases done with.
They're wrongful convictions, whatever these cases.
And there's got to be, I mean, a huge domino effect of all of these because some of them are right.
Some of them are wrong.
You know, not every one of these is wrong.
And what has happened because this one was right,
that down the line caused a longer sentence or more hardships than would have happened
if this one had been proven wrong?
I mean, it's take forever to go through these cases.
But the state is like, you know, yeah, we could walk away.
but look
um
no
we don't really
we don't want to look
you guys can do whatever you want but we're not going to
you know it should have this should have been done
we should have just closed it all up
and wrapped it at one time with some sort of with the help
from everyone instead you want to keep litigating
all these cases we can't do that
we can't do that
so unless I mean they're playing the game of
look, if you think you were wrongfully convicted, and I'll give us a call.
Give us a call.
And then, you know what, if we think that you were, you know, we'll talk.
But until then, those 40,000 cases, whether you were guilty or not, you were guilty, live with it.
Okay?
live with it.
Why is that story so fascinating?
It just makes me wonder
if the state of Massachusetts,
just the state of Massachusetts,
has over 40,000
wrongful convictions.
And I know that many of them are probably
correct,
you know, true convictions.
So let's say
half, a third,
a quarter,
10,000?
5,000 of them.
Okay, 5,000.
We'll say that the other 35,000 were right.
The other 5,000 were true convictions.
There's still 5,000 wrongful convictions in the state of Massachusetts.
Kind of makes you wonder how many wrongful conventions are out there in other states, doesn't it?
So all the labs that have been, you know, letting your employee.
sit around, smoking rock, testing, whatever kind of drugs are coming through.
Was that crack?
Yeah, yeah.
Wasn't that good, though.
The stuff you brought in here last week was a lot better.
This is the Jeff Fisher Show on the Blaze Radio Network, Fisher.
Welcome to it.
888-903 is the phone number.
Coming up immediately following this broadcast is Lawrence Jones.
And then Mike Slater and then Joe Pags, all on the Blaze Radio Network.
That's your Saturday for you.
Action-packed.
Of course, it starts off with Michael Pelka at 6 o'clock, 6 a.m. Eastern, that is.
Right on into this show, Lawrence Jones, Mike Slater, Joe Pags, that's a Saturday.
Hello.
The place else you'd rather be.
Shouldn't go anywhere else than right here.
You can follow me on Twitter at Jeff EMRA, Facebook, Jeff Fisher Radio,
and you can Instagram me at JiffyMRA.
So Canada, how many times have you said,
hey, I want to go to Canada?
Me too.
Me too.
Well, Canada is now prescribing heroin to fight addiction.
Let me just read that headline again, shall we?
now prescribing heroin to fight addiction.
Am I saying you got to spend money to make money?
Yeah, that's what I'm saying.
Heroin addicts in Canada can now get their fix with a doctor's prescription.
Doctors who apply for a permit from Canada's special access program can prescribe
pharmaceutical-grade heroin to severely addicted patients.
Are you severely addicted?
Yep.
In 2003, Vancouver has already become home for the first ever SIF.
Supervised injection facility.
Yes, heroin users can bring their own stash and shoot up with sterile needles in a clean, safe environment.
New York City Council just approved a study of SIFs in the city.
I wonder if that study will come back that they should open them or
not. And it's not just the heroin user. Okay. The Canadian government requires, oh, no, yeah, see,
the clinic needs to verify that traditional options have been tried and proven and effective.
That's it, though. I mean, you've got to go, you must, you must go through every single step
before we let you into our program. Yes, traditional options have to have been tried and proven
ineffective.
If they have been proven ineffective in getting the patient to quit his or her habit,
that means other addiction treatment methods such as rehabilitation or prescribing methadone
must have failed.
A patient must meet fairly high demands.
Uh-huh.
Including going to the clinic two to three times a day for injections.
The horror.
The program's dropout rate is low.
You think?
With prescription and an accurate notion the quality and dose they're using, patients can administer heroin in a supervised medical facility to get their fixed.
The idea?
The idea is that incrementally, patients will work with a physician to decrease their dose and eventually break the habit.
Right.
Canada is now taking steps to move forward drug policies that are rooted in science.
and evidence-based practices, says Alyssa Aguero,
quo executive director of vocal slash NY,
a non-profit advocate for low-income New Yorkers
affected by strict drug law enforcement.
Well, I mention that's a fun group, huh?
Vocal New York.
VOCAL dash and Y,
a nonprofit advocate for low-income New Yorkers
affected by strict drug law enforcement.
She said Canada's new policy is promising, focused more on restorative rather than punitive measures, unlike the American drug war.
Canada's policy recognizes the physical need that addicts have as well.
Withdrawal is really real and can have really detrimental effects on people's bodies.
What you think?
I mean, I'm sure unlike the heroin, right, Alyssa?
This is a method to combat that and help people in a way that's more medically sound.
and experts do say it's not realistic to go from all or nothing overnight,
especially when addicts have to build up the drug in their bodies.
Moreover, if they quit cold turkey and their tolerance plummets,
they're more vulnerable to overdose if they relapse
and try to shoot up what used to be their regular dose.
So just in case they might shoot up more than their body can handle
and overdosed, we're going to let them shoot up with a good dose three times a day.
That's so smart.
Our policy is to take heroin out of the hands of addicts and not put it in their arms.
Is it? Is it?
Scott McDonald, lead physician at Crossdown Clinic, supports the policy.
Many of my patients are long-term users who have tried and failed to quit with other treatments.
Our goal is to get people into care.
By gradually reducing dose, providing a clean fix and supervising for overdoses, Canada's new policy just might save lives.
Right.

So when a new feature comes out,
Boop, hello, a new Jeff Fisher feature has arrived.
I don't think it actually talks to you like that,
but you can pretend.
When you see it pop up on your phone screen,
think to yourself,
Hello. A new Jeff Fisher feature has arrived.
And then you'll have it.
Right? Right. Of course. Of course.
So many of you, we talk about raising children.
And, you know, it's hard raising kids. I know that. I've raised too darn many of them.
And there are plenty of times when you...
All right. I should use just say me.
They're playing times when me as a, in quotation, Mark's father, look, kids, leave me alone.
But leave me alone.
Go away.
Now, I know I'm probably the only one that does that.
Okay, I know.
I know.
I, you know, look, I love you.
Uh, see the roof you're living under, you're welcome.
See the food in the pantry, you're welcome.
See the cooking utensils that you can cook that food that's in the pantry.
You're welcome.
But for right now, leave me alone.
You know that whole upstairs that I have for you up there with televisions and games and stuff?
Go there.
Okay?
Go there.
I know I'm the only one.
I got it.
I understand.
There are a lot better parents than me.
I know.
Trust me.
But at this year's annual exhibition robo business in San Jose, California,
they really decided, according to Savoki robot,
that when you make your robot look and sound too much like C-3PO,
people expectations are way through the roof.
They expect so much more from the robot.
So they've kind of, you know, they've kind of dumbed it down.
Like Savokie's has is the hotel bot that brings you room service and, you know,
kind of looks like, you know, a kind of cooler R2D2 kind of thing.
And I have yet to have a robot deliver meals at a hotel.
tell, so I'm looking forward to the first time.
But,
this year, the big hit
at the robo
business annual exhibition
was
the IPAL
child-sized robot
designed to take,
according to this story, take on distinctly
adult responsibilities. I don't
necessarily agree with that.
I don't think it does that.
What it does, the three-foot-tall
eye pal, working fingers,
a touchscreen tablet
on his chest, it can sing, dance,
play rock, paper, scissors.
I can talk with the children, answer questions,
and it can provide surveillance
video for the parents.
So the parents could be, I don't know,
in another room or another state.
Oh, I do not do not do that.
That was just a joke.
Oh, I have never,
never done something like that, ever.
It's a robot for children, said the Avatar mine founder, founder Jipping Wang.
It's mainly for companionship.
It can keep children aged 3 to 8 occupied for a couple of hours, if need be, without adult supervision.
It's perfect for the time when children arrive home from school a few hours before their parents could off work.
So, I mean, really, we're doing that already with television.
and the Xbox and the 360s, right, and the whee's,
and the iPads and the iPads and the iPods and the laptops and the desktops,
we're doing that already, right?
Go sit in the corner with your iPad.
You're being punished, but leave me alone.
Don't your kids want to go outside?
No, we're fine.
We're just going to be upstairs here for the next two days.
Okay.
We're hungry, Dad.
Then cook something.
I mean, I don't know how difficult.
I look, I make no mistake.
I know I'm, you know, the worst possible parent.
No question.
I struggle with it.
I have struggled with it all the time.
With all my children, I got it.
I am a horrible parent.
There is no, I admit that.
But this sounds like not a bad thing.
Because we're already doing it.
This is just adding to it.
Now, Noel Sharkey, who we should actually try to talk to on this show,
Noel Sharkey, professor of robotics and artificial intelligence at the University of Sheffield,
has been raising concerns about robotic nannies since 2008.
And I bet you he has, he's calling.
iPads and televisions and smart devices,
robotic nannies.
Noel Sharkey.
He quotes, robots are a great educational tool for children.
It inspires them to learn about science and engineering.
But there are significant dangers in having robots mind our children.
They do not have the sensitivity or understanding needed for child care.
Yeah.
Because, hey, robot, want to go play?
Okay.
Hey, dad, want to go play?
Go away.
Which is better?
The robot or dad?
The robot, sure.
What do you want to do?
Dad, leave me alone.
Which is better.
I'm just asking a question.
So, just asking a question.
All right.
The overreliance are robots.
to look after children will lead to a number of severe attachment disorders that could reap havoc in our society.
And that's what Sharkey has argued.
In 2010, Sharkey and other robotics specialist published an ethical appraisal of robotic child care,
and he believed had to close down the field for now.
Oh, I don't have to read his little ethical appraisal.
I don't recall reading that in 2010.
When contacted about the IPAL, he responded,
This is awful.
Of course that's what he's going to respond.
Madeline Duva, an advisor for Avatar Mind,
contradicted Wang's claim that the robot could be used to mine children for several hours.
Yeah, well, she is, uh,
Wang is saying, hey, this thing can take care of your kids for a couple hours.
Madeline Duva, one of the public relations people is like,
oh, no, it can't.
No, it can't.
No, don't leave your kids a little.
alone with this. Don't, don't, don't. We're not responsible.
And Wang is like, yeah, leave the kids with them. That's what it's for.
Legal department. No, it's not. No, no, do not leave children alone for unsupervised amounts
of time. You must always supervise your children.
The robotics engineer. Yeah, that's what we made it for. So, you know, it could be with
the kids and parents could just go to work.
maybe not even come home for hours.
Legal department.
No, no.
Eh, eh, that's not true.
Do not leave children unsupervised with robot.
Do not leave children unsupervised with robot.
It cannot replace a babysitter.
But it is a social robot.
It's not like you're going to abandon your kid.
Yeah, she's from legal.
When I asked her about the dangers involved with creating a robot that could be used in place of a human caretaker,
she said, that's a good question.
we don't have an answer to that.
A lot of parents handed iPad to kids and keep them quiet.
This is more interactive.
Yeah.
She's not going to answer.
Dova is not going to answer any specific question.
We don't have a good answer to that.
That's interesting, isn't it?
The IPAL already in production in China.
It'll be available to consumers by the end of the year.
He wants to start selling into the United States by next year.
Wang said they found that 80% of the United States.
the children love it, 15% have no reaction, 5% are scared.
If 80% love it, the IPAL is going to be a huge, huge.
I love the fact that Wang, the robotic engineer, I just go ahead and leave your kids
alone with it.
It's fine, a couple hours, days, whatever.
That's what it's made for.
Legal department, Madeline Duva.
Ah, no, the robot, no, you should not.
leave your children alone without adult supervision.
No, I can't replace a babysitter.
No, no, that's, as the Wang doesn't know what he's talking about.
Uh-huh.
Right.
Now, there were other stuff at the Robo Business.
We should have gone to this thing.
The Blaze Radio, Jeff Fisher Show, should have been at Robo Business, the annual exhibition in San Jose, California.
The Obie, for example, convent.
combines a special plate.
I saw this working, actually,
a special plate with a motorized arm to help people with disabilities feed themselves.
And this is fascinating because what this,
now it was invented because this guy's grandfather had ALS
and he didn't want people helping him.
But he couldn't do it himself.
So he developed this, right?
And he said he got it so it would,
it doesn't replace the caretaker,
but it still, you know,
It lets the people at least eat by themselves.
And I saw this firsthand with, I had an uncle, an uncle to my first son and my first wife had Parkinson's disease really bad.
And he struggled with it for years.
And he, I used to watch him get so frustrated.
I mean, this guy, you know, built his home and built his, built towers around the world.
That's what he did.
you know, he climbed, you know, hundreds of feet towers and built stores and worked for the government all around the world.
And then he got sick and couldn't do that.
And so I used to watch him eat dinner or attempt to try to eat dinner at the table and get so frustrated and so angry because he couldn't do it.
This would be great with that so that he could still participate in dinner at the table with the family.
but he wouldn't, you know, this would not shake and spill food all over the place.
This would actually help feed him.
And I think that that would help a lot.
And obviously it did.
And that's why this guy, you know, invented it for his grandfather, which is tremendous.
However, let me say that this would be great for people like, I don't know, me who are lazy.
If you're, you know, busy, I don't know.
staying away from the kids watching something on TV,
but you still want to eat.
Let's put the food on the obi.
And now the obi brings the arm up and food.
Hey, dad, we're hungry.
Go away.
And bring me some more food to put on the obie.
I'm running out of my snacks.
This is the Jeff Fisher show on the Blaze Radio
Network.
The Jeff Fisher Show on the Blaze Radio Network.
So we are definitely living in a safe space America.
There's no question about that.
I mean, it's time to man up a little.
Sorry, sorry females, but you know exactly what I mean when I say time to man up a little.
Nottsbury Farm had a fear VR attraction.
And it stirred up a bunch of controversy among mental health advocates.
and Nottsbury Farm weakened under pressure and closed the Halloween attraction down.
Unbelievable.
Now, and part of the story, which is fascinating to me, is one of those who objected to fear VR was Ron Thomas, whose son, Kelly, died after being beaten by Fullerton police.
Kelly Thomas, who was homeless, suffered from schizophrenia.
The case generated national attention.
That's great.
So what the hell does Nottsbury Farm fear VR have to do?
with Kelly Thomas being beaten to death by the Fullerton police.
I know what I can, I know, I know, zero.
Fear VR was originally named Fear VR 5150, 5150, 50150.
The numbers correspond to a code used to indicate to authorities
that they may detain a person who may be suffering a mental disorder
that causes him or her to be a danger to others or himself or herself.
Oh my gosh.
Now originally, Notts changed the name.
They folded early with the name.
Notch changed the name after concern from mental health advocates.
So this week they said over the past week in an email they sent out, over the past week we have heard from a number of people expressing their concern that one of our temporary Halloween attractions, fear VR, is hurtful to those who suffer from mental illness.
Contrary to some traditional and social media accounts, the attraction story and presentation were never intended to portray mental illness.
It is impossible to address both concerns and misconceptions in the Halloween time frame.
At this time, we've decided to close the attraction.
Nathbury Farm.
You're sad.
I'm sad for you.
Nottsbury Farm is horrifying because it demonizes people with mental illness, says Julie Robinson Shammuz of Los Angeles.
Shame on Natsbury Farm in the Los Angeles Times were presenting illness as entertainment.
People with mental illness are our loved ones.
and yours. People with mental illness are statistically more likely to be a victim of crime than to commit a crime.
Stigma and misrepresentation of the nature of mental illness continue to make it difficult.
Difficult for people with mental illness to get the treatment they need and even more difficult to find understanding in a world that demonizes them.
Please encourage your reporters to write about the shortage of psychiatric beds in hospitals.
The extreme difficulty in getting very ill people to treatment.
the unavailability of long-term effective treatment because of misuse of funding.
The real story is the slow Holocaust of people dying on the streets from lack of treatment,
decent food, drug abuse, homelessness, no medical care, and violence.
Please shine a light on that.
I'd like to reply for Natsbury Farm.
We will be shining a light on all your needs of psychiatric care, shortage of beds,
people dying on the streets for lack of treatment,
needing decent food, drug abuse, homelessess, no metal care.
That's why we're going to be donating some of the funds that we earn from Fear VR.
And I wouldn't have changed the name to begin with,
Fear VR 5150, to those particular causes.
Because that's what we do here.
We let people have fun and not live in your
Safe Space America.
Man up.
This is the Jeff Fisher Show.
Only on the Blaze Radio Network.
This is the Jeff Fisher Show.
Yes, it is.
Thanks for coming along for the ride today.
I appreciate it.
So, I was trying to avoid.
I've got plenty of,
I've got stuff to talk to you every Saturday about it.
I come here every Saturday with just a plethora of stuff,
and then we never get to it all.
I try to get to it all.
and I get to some of the best stuff.
I try to.
And then I try and decide.
I struggle with talking about the election and talking about the candidates.
I struggle with that because I do want to talk a little bit about it with you.
You know, I mean, some of it is fascinating.
But on the other hand, this is a Saturday.
And, you know, while you can listen and take me with you any of the day or the week, any hour of the day, you know, we're live Saturday morning.
you know, nine to noon Eastern.
And I just kind of feel like, we had enough yet.
But as I'm looking, I've got a couple of, I've got a couple of commercials, new commercials that I want you to hear.
One, one is the latest Trump ad and one is the latest Hillary ad against Trump, of course, and the latest Trump ad against Hillary.
And I'm reading a story about Trump and is talking about he appeared in some.
soft core porn in the year 2000.
Now, I've not seen the soft core porn video yet.
I'm not promising I won't watch it.
I'm not promising that.
But as I'm going through this story, and of course it ties into, you know,
Machado, Miss Venezuela, Miss Universe, you know, because he called her Miss Piggy.
And, uh, now the Miss housekeeping, obviously, is Trump being, you know, his racist thoughts.
And that's who he is.
He thinks he's being funny.
He's just a douche.
And he thinks he's being funny.
So, and as I'm reading the story about this story,
and plus I'm kind of on his side.
I'm not on his Miss Housekeeping and Miss Piggy thing.
But I don't know.
I'm on his side.
She was Miss Universe.
Miss Universe.
You are not supposed to be gain in weight as Miss Universe.
I'm sorry.
You can be upset that he's called.
her Miss Piggy or that he's, you know, saying all this.
But what he did for her was actually great.
He tried, he bought Miss Universe.
He was trying to make it great again.
Oh my gosh.
What?
He was doing that with Miss Universe.
And now he's trying to do it with America.
And he was had the press there.
And he brought her into the gym.
And he was saying she's going to lose his way.
And she's looking great.
And I saw the interview with him saying with one interview talking about, hey, we all love
to eat.
But, you know, they can't do this.
That's part of your deal.
So don't come to me with I was Miss Universe and who cares if I gained, you know, 40 or 50 pounds.
America cares.
The universe cares.
Because that's the deal.
As Miss Universe, we expect our Miss Universe not to be Miss Piggy.
Oh.
I mean, we just do.
So I'm scrolling through the story and it has an excerpt from one of Donald's interviews with Howard Stern.
and he's such a douche.
I mean, he just is.
When he talks about, you know, thinking his daughters are hot and, you know, yeah, oh, that's that common.
Do you, Don?
But this interview with on Howard Stern, I mean, it's back in 2003, right?
I mean, he's Donald Trump.
He's on Howard Stern.
They're both, you know, it's a new year.
New York. They're all, you know, trying to be funny. And he's just a douche. This is what he is.
And he's on Stern. I mean, Stern brings out people's duchiness. That's what he does.
And he's talking about watching Paris Hilton's video with then-girlfriend Melania. And he said,
I've known Paris for the time she was 12. Her parents are friends of mine. He's such a douche.
And the first time I saw her, she walked into the room and I said, who the hell is
that? I mean, at 12, I wasn't interested, but she was beautiful. I mean, the sex tape only made
her hotter. And that's Donald Trump. Come on. That is Donald Trump. There's no question.
You can give me all the other bull, Mr. Conservative, Mr. Roger Ailes, all of that. No, sorry,
that is Donald Trump. That's the Donald Trump that America fell in.
love with the guy who talks like that right i mean that's what turned him into don't trump the douche
it just is that's him so funny and you know of course dad went on his twitter rampage you know at
four o'clock of the morning and uh you know bashed that's what he's gonna do you know it you know it is
he's he's gonna you know he's gonna start uh start taking over a country at 3 30 a m he's gonna wake up he's
going to be pissed. Sorry.
Had to invade.
He's got to do it less than 140 characters.
Sorry, had to invade.
Hashtag great again.
Empire growing.
I mean, that's just him.
That's who he is.
Is that who you want for president?
If it is great.
Good for you.
And Hillary is just as,
just as bad as him.
And people are trying to make both of them look bad.
This is trying to make Don look bad.
I don't think so.
And then the Hillary stuff with, I watched, there was a big headline yesterday about,
Hillary, can't walk downstairs, has to steady herself walking downstairs.
So, of course, I believe that she has some sort of health problem.
So I want to watch.
I mean, I really do believe that.
But I see this video, it's not bad.
She's coming off the side of a stage, which most of those stages, and we've seen people fall off them all the time.
Right?
We've seen all kinds of candidates, different types of candidates, fall off of stages.
And regular people fall off of stages.
That's what happened.
They're up on platforms.
So she comes off to the side of the stage, and she's going to go down and see the crowd.
And, of course, all those stages have those little metal stairs.
You know, that's how people get on and off of them, off to the side.
So one of the Secret Service guys holds out his arm, and she grabs his arm to start walking down the stairs,
and then let's go and finishes the walk down the three or four stairs.
into the crowd. It wasn't bad at all. It's almost what anyone would do when you have someone
with you and you go down those stairs. Now, okay, so almost anyone. All right. So, yeah, if you're,
you know, between the ages of 18 and 90, you probably wouldn't do that. But when you're over 90,
like Hillary is, you know, you do that. That's what you do. It just is. It's what you do.
So I don't know if I want to hear these ads or not. I've got the Trump ads. The new 60s.
second Trump ad.
I've got the Hillary
28 second ad
where she's going after Trump
and his
girls
and I don't know
if I want to hear him.
Do I?
I mean the Trump ad is
actually not bad
about Hillary.
It doesn't even say
approved by Donald.
I don't think.
I think it says it.
You read it on the commercial
but you don't.
You don't.
Yeah, there's no audio.
He doesn't
And at the end, it just says Trump Pence.
It doesn't say anything.
So let's hear it see if it sounds okay.
This is his new anti-Hillary ad, the new Trump anti-Hillary ad.
There's the Hillary standard.
And then there's the standard for everybody else.
What's the Hillary standard?
You're against same-sex marriage.
Now you're for it.
You defended President Obama's immigration policies.
Now you say they're too harsh.
You supported his trade deal dozens of times.
You even called it the gold standard.
Now suddenly last week, you're against it.
founded, inaccurate, mean-spirited attacks with no basis in truth, reality.
We have four dead Americans.
Was it because of a protest or was it because of guys out for a walk one night or decided they'd go kill some Americans?
What difference at this point does it make?
I have been as straightforward and honest as I could be.
I did not send or receive any information that was marked classified at the time.
110 emails in 52 email chains have been determined by the owning agency to contain classified information.
Will you say anything to get elected?
That's a good question.
And that's where it says, Trump Pence.
I mean, the Anderson Cooper question was a good question.
And I think, look, will you say anything to get elected?
I think we all know the answer to that.
And I believe that probably both of them would answer it the same way.
They would answer it.
Well, of course not.
But you know that they would.
You know that they would.
So then the Clinton ad against Trump shows girls looking into the mirror as Trump is doing interviews insulting women.
And it's who Donald Trump is, right?
He's a douche.
And it shows women looking girls, women looking into the mirror, you know, having a problem with the way they look.
I mean, is that a Trump?
fault, objectifying women?
I don't know. Let's hear the ad.
I'm Hillary Clinton, and I approve this message.
Looking into the mirror.
I'd look right in that fat, ugly face of hers.
She's a slop.
She ate like a pig.
A person who's flat-chested is a good body, no.
She has a fat.
Absolutely.
So you treat women with respect?
I can't say that either.
All right.
See.
He's just a douche.
That's what he is.
That's what he is.
Come on.
I mean, he's just a douche.
And that's just the deal, right?
It's just a deal.
So there's your choices, America.
Good for you.
Good for you.
Who's a good little presidential picker?
You are.
Yes.
Not really.
The Jeff Fisher Show
On the Blaze Radio Network
The Jeff Fisher Show
Rich
from White Plains
Welcome to the broadcast. How are you, sir?
Hey, Jeffie, first time talking to you.
Thank you. Welcome aboard.
Yeah.
What's up?
Actually, I'd like to preface my comments
by saying I'm currently a registered Republican.
I just got the paperwork
from my board of elections. I'm
changing my affiliation. I can't take it anymore.
Seriously, I'm not trying to be funny. But, you know, I voted, I held my nose and I voted
for the Republican in the last four, you know, election cycles. Many people did.
Yeah, a lot of people did. Now, if this election cycle is not holding your nose, I mean, it's
cutting off your head. I mean, if you're going to, if you're going to do the same thing. And,
And, you know what they say about doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different result, you know, that being the definition of insanity.
And you got guys like Wayne Allen Root out there saying that a conservative could never get elected president.
Well, that's very interesting when we haven't nominated a conservative yet.
No kidding.
You know that's a fact?
So how as you as a pundit and expect to maintain credibility, go out there and make such a stupid statement, okay, as a conservative can never win when we have never, since Reagan, I guess, had a conservative nominee?
Look, the people who are conservative or conservatians or whatever you want to call it, you know, however you want to bill yourself as,
you know, the progressives have first hijacked the conservative party for it, and they have done it right under our noses.
However, that being said, technically, you know, we say he's not a conservative.
We know he's a douche. It's a douche. That's what he is. I mean, they're both douches.
We're both holding on it. It's what he is.
But the fact is that he's still, you know, technically under the Republican heading, you know, under that Republican heading, you know, under that Republican.
heading, which, you know, has been
morphed into conservative
and Hillary is
under the Democratic thing, which has morphed
into, you know, that progressive, hey,
we're for the people thing. So
when a guy who
Wayne Allen Root,
please don't get me started on Wayne
Allen Root, who continually wrote
about being at the same
school as Barack Obama and never seeing him.
And that's all he knows about.
Stop it, Wayne.
Okay. It doesn't know what he's talking about.
Jeff, do you ever listen to the guy?
He sounds like the sham-wow guy of politics.
It's probably what he is, actually.
That's probably not a bad call.
It's agonizing.
So for him to say that, it doesn't surprise me.
I mean, he believes that.
Well, you know, Jeff, going back to what you just said about hijacking, who's hijacked what,
it's clear that the liberals have hijacked the Democrat Party,
they never fail to put a true liberal
as a nominee for their party, it's the Republican Party that doesn't know it's, you know, which end is up with regard to their principles and values.
You know, you got John McCain standing up at CPAC saying, I'm a conservative, but when you look at his voting record,
he was the most liberal voter amongst all the Republican senators, you know?
So it's this show during the Republican primary of these phony conservatives, you know, saying,
hey, I'm a conservative, and they're not.
No, absolutely.
And Rich, I'll say this, and thanks for calling.
I appreciate it because I'm up against the clock here.
I will say this, that that has happened, you know, gradually over the years, and it's because they just keep it.
Like you said, the Democratic Party continually, continually, continually does their liberal people,
and they bring along the Republicans or the conservatives,
and they've brought them along little by little, making them wheel and deal,
a little by little, wheel and deal, little by little, until right now,
just like I've said before, sooner or later,
when you keep choosing the lesser of two evils,
you're going to come up
with two evils
sooner or later. You can't continue
to do the lesser of two evils
and not come up with two evils
sometime down the road.
That's where we're at.
Said.

You got a little David Barton, Bill Handle, Jackie Dee, gives you some.
some energy chat.
You know, really there's no need for you to go anywhere else.
Other than the blaze.com slash radio.
And when you say to yourself, but Jeff,
but Jeff,
I have a few other things that I need to do
where I can't listen to the Blaze.
I would say, hey, but listener.
Hey, but listener.
Not butt listener, but hey, but listener.
Still doesn't sound good.
You can download,
take us with you,
or you can, you know, download it and listen to it.
It's your pleasure wherever you like, whenever you like, 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
Yeah.
And we've made it available on, you know, all the platforms.
Like Google, Yahoo and Bing?
No.
Like iTunes, Stitcher, Google Play Music, SoundCloud.
And you can try to find it through all the.
The big search engines, like Google, Yahoo, and Bing?
I don't know why.
There's a commercial that I hear every so often on radio that makes their rounds on radio.
And they're hawking.
I forget what the company is hawking websites or something or making your business better or whatever.
And they make sure that your information is out on all the main search engines.
And the guy says like Google, Yahoo and Bing?
It's really
Unless they're going to start advertising on this show
That's really dumb
If you're going to start advertising on this row
That's a great idea
Yeah
To make sure that you're getting it out there
On all the big search engines
Like Google, Yahoo and Bing
All right, let's talk a little food
How can we go wrong talking food?
We don't have an update
On Bluebell
I'm not sure what's happening with Bluebell
I tried to find out what's going on with their latest Listeria worry, but I did not see that.
And then I had, you know, the Tyson recalled 130,000 pounds of chicken nuggets this week.
There was some sort of plastic piece that broke off and, of course, got into some of the packages.
And of course it goes through a metal detector, but it doesn't catch the plastic.
So those pieces of plastic are 130,000 pounds of chicken nuggets.
And so good luck if you've got a big bag of those sitting in the freezer.
Check it out, see if yours are safe or they're not.
They might have a piece of plastic in them.
And you're too dumb to say, hey, plastic, get out of there.
But, Jeff, how can you can't cook the nuggets with the nuggets with that piece of plastic around.
The nuggets already touched the plastic.
Whatever.
Take them back.
Get new ones.
Take them back.
Get new ones.
And then I see a story where in an Australian burger joint,
this is coming to America if it's not already,
because this is a great idea.
Prepared to shell out free burgers to patrons who get one of the Cafe 51's burgers
and its logo tattooed somewhere on their body.
And the restaurant website, tattoos are for life,
so why should burgers be free for life too?
Ground rules.
Yes, there has to be.
some kind of rules. You know that.
Must be 18.
Free burger can be redeemed once a day.
So you can have a burger a day for life with a tattoo of a burger and their logo on your body somewhere.
Tremendous.
And you may have to show your tattoo if the staff ask.
If you're not going to show your tattoo, no free burger.
And the burger has to be drawn to scale.
can't be a mini burger unless that's what you're going to eat.
We have had over 3,500 entrance to the burger joint.
Wow.
Now, I mean, he's going to be laughing out on the other side of his face
when he's serving 3,500 free burgers a day.
However, it's just the burger, right?
You get the free burger.
You're going to go in and purchase other things.
items. But I think you have to eat it there. One tattoo per person.
Originally it was going to be the person getting it done. But after we got one tattoo done
live on Australian TV Monday night, the show called The Project. Looks like we may get
all 10 successful applicants linked live on the show so the network may have to cover the
cost. Be careful which burger you choose. Cafe 51 is a monstrous burgers. Also the burger
that you choose is the one you get.
Ooh, that's a tough one.
But would you get a tattoo?
I'll tell you what I'd like to do is get a tattoo of maybe a chick-fil-a chocolate shake.
Get a free Chick-fil-A.
Chocolate shake every day.
It'd be great.
You know, their chick-fil-a is getting in some heat in Florida.
They are holding a voter drive.
at Chick-fil-A.
And you think, wow, that's great.
I mean, nine Chick-fil-A locations throughout the Tampa Bay area, Pinellas County,
is, you know, doing registration drives to vote.
Oh, my gosh, no, we can't have that.
Susan McGrath, leader of the Stonewall Democrats,
head of the Pinellas County Democratic Party.
The decision to use Chick-fil-A would be similar to a Democratic
supervisor of elections holding the event at Planned Parenthood.
You know what I say to that?
I say hold the event of Planned Parenthood.
Who cares?
You're registering people to vote.
McGrath said the group supports the effort to register more voters, but she called
the move partisan to hold the event that Chick-fil-A.
Might be more transparent to hold the voter drives at the Republican Party
headquarters.
Okay.
Why don't you hold a drive at the Democratic Party headquarters?
Um, okay.
So, I mean, the object is to get people to vote, right, Susan?
Well, some Democrats may occasionally dine at Chick-fil-A.
No, Chick-fil-A doesn't allow it.
Doesn't happen.
Oh, wait, you mean Chick-fil-A serves everybody?
It doesn't matter, and they just, they want you to come there and eat their food?
Huh.
And here's the story for you.
While some Democrats may occasionally dine at Chick-fil-A.
and perhaps even members of the LGBT community.
What?
The coordination of Pinellas voter registration activities with this right-leaning business
very clearly conveys that your office is targeting Republican-leaning voters.
Okay.
Even if that's true, so.
Go sign up people and register them to vote at Planned Parenthood.
Go ahead.
Go sign up people at the Democratic Party building.
Go ahead.
See, the funny thing is, when you register to vote, you can say, yeah, I'm a Republican.
Or you can say, yeah, I'm a Democrat.
Or you can say, yeah, I'm an independent.
But in some states, the independents aren't allowed to vote in the primaries.
However, that having been said, doesn't mean just because you say you're a Democrat on your voter registration card,
or you say you're a Republican
or you say you're an independent
on your voter registration card
that doesn't mean you have to vote
straight ticket
I know it's a shock
listen I know
sorry I broke away from food for a little bit
was Chick-fil-A
I started talking about tattooing
a Chick-fil-A
shake out my arm for free chiquette
would Chick-fil-A do that for me
I would get a
life-size
Chick-fil-A
chocolate shake
tattooed on my body
for a free
chick-fil-a shake
every time I go into Czech-fil-A?
Yes, please.
Look, my wife
been after me
to get a tattoo
for quite some time.
The only reason she's after me
to get a tattoo is because she wants one.
That's it.
That's all.
Okay?
I know. I understand
the little game she's playing. I got it.
You don't fool me.
Okay?
But the point is, is that I would break down and say, yes, I, you know what, I'll get a tattoo.
I want a life-size chick-fil-a chocolate shake with the straw and the cherry and the whipped cream tattooed to my arm.
Or maybe not my arm.
I've got to pick another place.
I mean, for sure it would be showing up in my butt, but that's another story.
Anyway, don't they already, Jeff?
Yes, they do.
I'd do that in a heartbeat.
Yes, this is Jeff Fisher.
I would like my chocolate, my daily chocolate shake, please.
I have to drive around.
The manager wants to see your tattoo.
No, he doesn't.
Texas State Fair, just open.
And it's going on now until, I don't know, sometime in the next thousand years.
October 1st, said, opened yesterday.
Day to October 23rd.
So you got another 23 days or so.
But what's great about the fair?
What is it that's great about the fair?
Oh, I know.
Fair food.
Now, there's one thing that's really cool.
It's the cookie fries.
They look tremendous.
It's crink.
They're crinkle cut.
They look like French fries.

Tell me.
Tell me.
You're listening to the Jeff Fisher Show.
The Blaze Radio.
Radio Network is the Jeff Fisher Show.
That it is on the Blaze Radio Network.
Thank you so much for coming along for the ride today.
I am looking, trying to catch up today.
We're wrapping up the show here, and I've got so much to talk to you about.
One of the things is, don't forget to listen to our talking, walking dead segments on the Blaze Radio.
If you subscribe when we do the new segments, you will see when they arrive.
Myself, Jason Betrill, and Brad Staggs do talking fear as fear is wrapping up its season here in the next couple of weeks.
And then October 23rd, Big Day, as the Walking Dead new season starts up again.
And I told you last week that Walking Dead had sent me an email.
tweeted me a direct message and then sent me an email.
And I got an email this week saying that the present was on its way.
and it should be there by Wednesday.
And I figured that we would, Jason and myself and Brad would do a Facebook live and open the present up.
Let me see what I got.
Because they reminded me in the email, I was reminded that, hey, if you're going to social media this, which of course they know I'm going to.
That's why they give me the gift so that I can promote their stupid show.
I know how it works.
Remind people that what the note and what you're getting from us,
is, you know, fans can't buy.
It was a special gift.
And I'm thinking, nice, what am I getting?
I can't wait until it gets here.
Well, I came in today, and there's a box on my desk.
All right, so there's a box on my desk, and it's, I'm afraid to open it.
I'm afraid to open it.
So I went back, I'm afraid to open it because it might be the gift.
I don't want to do it without it being live on Facebook or with Jason and Brad and live on Blaze Radio.
Okay.
So I think this is it.
It's not very heavy.
So I might be right.
It might be just a, you know.
It's going to be a little stand-up doll of Negan with his little baseball bat.
And the note's going to be, hey, thanks for watching.
We love you, walking dead.
And it's not real heavy.
So I'm not sure what's in it in it.
Oh, there's something in it.
See?
Hold on.
Oh.
I don't want to break it.
I might have already broken in.
It could be a little stand-up doll of Negan.
But it doesn't say who it's from.
This just says ship to Mercury Studios.
And it doesn't say it's priority mail.
It might be it.
I got to tell you, it might be it.
I think Wednesday might have been on the outside date.
You know, the outside day of it coming.
So look for that.
It might happen on Monday.
We'll Facebook, if you're a blaze Facebook.
likeer, if you've thumbed up to the Blaze Facebook page,
then you'll know when we go live because it will alert you.
Just like if you subscribe to the Jeff Fisher Radio show,
when we put up new segments,
boop, you'll be alerted.
Boop, new segment, please watch.
Boop, new segment, please listen.
Boop, the Blaze Facebook is now live.
And so we'll be doing that this week.
I'm hoping to get, you know, I hope it's a cool gift.
You should listen to our Walking Dead podcast and our Fear of the Walking Dead podcast.
They're enjoyable.
And I can't wait to open this box.
Cannot wait.
I wish Jason and Brad were here now because we'd open it on the air right here right now.
And I'd blow off the Facebook live and we would just do it live on Blaze Radio.
But they're not here.
And I want to open it.
So I want to say, hey, the gift was sent to me.
Okay.
I don't care about you.
It's mine.
and it's here, so I'm going to open it, and you guys can take a hike.
However, however, it's not, I can't.
I can't.
As bad of a guy as I am, I just can't do that.
I mean, I can't.
But I may open it after the show and then just re-tape it up,
because I have to know what's in that thing.
So I got to practice, I'm looking surprised and being all happy
when we Facebook Live it because I'm going to know what's in that song.
I'm not going a whole weekend
about knowing what's in this box.
The Jeff Fisher Show,
The Blaze Radio Network.
The Jeff Fisher Show.
So, all right.
Are you ready for Halloween?
Are you ready for Christmas?
What are you doing?
Are you on somebody that, you know,
jumps over Halloween and goes right to Christmas?
Because that's my wife.
If it wasn't for our kids,
Halloween would be non-existent in our reality.
world.
And it almost is now, but if it wasn't for the kids, it would be non-existent.
Because my wife is a Christmas freak.
And, you know, fine, I love her.
You know, keep the Christmas stuff up forever for all I care.
I mean, that's not really true, but I don't mean that.
I do not mean that because she would.
But she's out Christmas shopping at the Hallmark store today because Hallmark got their
Christmas stuff in and you've got to get them on the day.
they come out.
Because if not, they're gone and you never get them back
and they're limited edition.
Now, some of them are going to be pretty cool.
Some of them are going to be pretty cool.
The other 18,000 ornaments knew that I get this year from Hallmark.
By the way, Hallmark, you're welcome.
The stock will be going up this month and you're welcome.
But it's a mistake to let her do that.
I mean, we went out, we were out shopping.
I was thinking about this off the year.
So we go around shop.
And you know how they've got the big things now or, you know, people buy, you buy the lights and you put them in front of your house and then it shines on your house.
And it's a, you know, snowstorm or snowflakes coming down or Santa flies across, whatever the design is.
And the lights are on your garage or, you know, on the front of your house.
And it's part of the Christmas decorations out in front of your house.
So I think when you come up on our porch in our trailer, you, there's a lot of your house.
you there's just nothing there so I was thinking hey you know we get one of those lights and we just put it on the
whole put it on the porch and we shine it and it'll you know it'll have lights or snowflakes or whatever in
the front of the house and it'll be cool so when people walk into the trailer it will look great
and we just you know and I'm thinking that and I saw we should get one and just let it be the walkway
No, let's get three.
And we'll do the entire walkway.
We'll do the entire porch around the entire trailer.
That's the way my wife thinks about Christmas.
So, Merry Christmas.
Merry Christmas.
Merry Christmas.
All right, the Oxford Dictionary put some new words in this year.
I don't know if you're aware of them.
Some of them are pretty basic.

So have you changed
How you want to be referred to as
From Mr. To Miss to Mrs.
To whatever you want
Because pronouns are your choice now
Well Tuesday
Top administrators at the University of Michigan
Ann Arbor announced a new campus-wide policy
that allows students to select their own designated personal pronoun.
In forming the campus community, they are expected to adhere to these preferences.
The University of Michigan is committed to fostering an environment of inclusiveness.
Consistence with its value, the university has created a process for students to designate pronouns with the university
and have those pronouns reflected on class rosters this fall.
The university stated the students that professors in this email,
and a copy which may be obtained by the college fixed,
the university defines a designated personal pronoun,
has a pronoun an individual chooses to identify with,
and expects others to use when referencing them.
He, she, him, his Z, etc.
Grant Strobel, student at the University of Michigan,
chairman of the Young Americans for Freedom Board.
he's the chairman of the young Americans for Freedom Board of Governors
decided to change his preferred pronoun
Grant Strollable
chairman of the young Americans for Freedom Board of Governors
decided to change his pronoun to his majesty
henceforth I shall be referred to as his majesty Grant Strobel
He said, I encourage all you of them students to go on to Wolverine Access and insert identity of their dreams.
Yes, it's not Mr. Ms. Miss. Z. His Majesty. His Majesty, Grant Strobel.
I say, Grant, outstanding idea. Outstanding idea. I'm sorry. I mean, outstanding idea.
Your Majesty.
Oves.
This is the Jeff Fisher Show on the Blaze Radio Network.
The Jeff Fisher Show is on.
Welcome to it.
888-90-33 is the phone number.
You can follow me on Twitter at Jeff EMRA,
Jeff E-MRA for Instagram.
Lawrence Jones, standing by,
coming up immediately after this broadcast today.
And then Mike Slater, Joe Pags.
It's your Saturday here on the Blaze Radio.
You're welcome.
That's all I'm saying to you, okay?
Let's get to a couple of things before we wrap this thing up,
some stuff I wanted to get to that I didn't get a chance to get to.
First, I teased a little bit on my show, tease tweet about astronauts having children.
Can you have children on Mars?
You know what?
Why would you want to go to Mars if you couldn't have kids?
But you can't.
Sorry.
They're not going to let you have kids on Mars.
No.
times it's going to be too tough, too difficult,
and there's going to be no medical supplies.
So if you're going to go to Mars, you can't have any kids.
That kind of sucks.
But it didn't say you can't.
No, never mind.
A couple of quick sports stories that made me really happy.
And just for no explicit other reason than it just made me happy.
Tim Tebow, first day at bat in Major League Baseball,
hits a home run.
And that's the kind of competitor he is.
amazing. Can't find a job in the NFL, though.
But that's kind of an athlete and competitor he is.
And the pitcher threw the ball.
John Kielowski actually had a great couple of tweets about it.
His first tweet was, I thought we agreed you were taking the first pitch.
And a tough day for that kid probably should spend the rest of his instructs focused on locating his fastball down, which is what he hit out.
You know, very funny.
And congratulations to him.
Also, a great golf story, a quick golf story.
And I know I'm not, you know, golf, whatever, it's golf.
And golfers try to think, you know, there's so much better than everybody else all the time anyway.
Kind of, you know, it's kind of agonizing sometimes.
I didn't score right.
I took points off my card on purpose.
Okay, whatever.
But so they're at the Ryder Cup is going on.
And there's four guys out there.
And they're trying to, they're practicing putting on the green.
and they're trying to sink a 12-foot putt and they can't make it.
So a guy from the crowd says,
come out, let's go.
Anybody can make that put.
So Justin Rose, you know, he's obviously pissed and he's like,
you know, sick of the, sick of the, you know, the people heckling him.
Yeah, anybody can do that.
Let's go.
So he's like, if you can do it, get out here.
And he calls the guy out here to the green.
They put down the 12 bucks and he throws down $100 next to the ball.
So if he makes the putt, he wins the 100.
and it's being, you know, it's being filmed, people all around.
He takes the putter, grabs his putter, takes the, puts the ball, 12-foot putt, sinks it,
drills it to the bottom of that hole.
I mean, fantastic.
And that's what you get, Justin.
That's what you get.
So next time somebody's heckling you in the crowd, saying,
anyway, you can make that putt, think twice about calling him in.
Okay?
because it just might be they are, you know, they're ready for you.
Okay.
You know what else is kind of agonizing.
If you want to know why this country is the way it is,
it's because people think certain other people should be president of the United States.
Rancor has asked people to vote on who they feel would be the best rock star to be president of the United States.
Now, I realize it's not a scientific poll.
It's just a ranker website poll.
However, you'd think they'd choose something a little bit different, wouldn't you?
When you go down the list, let's count down from number 10, 10 to 1.
Number 10, the best rock star, it would be president of the United States, Billy Joel.
Number two, Henry Rollins.
Number eight, not number two, number nine, Henry Rollins.
Number eight, Bob Dylan.
Number seven, Eddie Vedder.
Number six, Tom Petty.
Top five of rock stars that people voted to be president of the United States,
who they'd like to see as president of the United States.
Number five, Dave Matthews.
Number four, Alice Cooper.
Number three, from do metal, rock music, grunge, Dave Grawl.
Number two, and I don't know which is more agonizing.
Number two or number one.
Number two is Bruce Springsteen.
Number one.
Coming in at number one.
Paul Simon.
Not quite sure.
You want to know what's wrong with America.
I know, no, Ted's not in the top ten.
That's for sure.
Thanks for coming along for the ride today.
I'll leave you with my favorite meme of the week.
Three old ladies walking down an alleyway.
Two with canes, all with purses.
One says, it's windy today.
No, it's not.
It's Thursday.
So am I.
Let's go have a beer.
Have a great week.
We'll see you next Saturday at the Blaze Radio Network.
And no kidding.
You look tremendous today.
I mean, you do.
Aye.
You look great.
I don't know that I would really wear that all day.
Ooh, a little frightening, but you look great.
Seriously.
This is the Jeff Fisher Show.
Only on the Blaze Radio Network.
