With Amex Platinum, you have access to over 1,400 airport lounges worldwide. So your experience before takeoff is a taste of what's to come. That's the powerful backing of Amex. Conditions apply. Blaze Radio Network. And now chewing the fat with Jeff Fisher. Is there nothing sacred any longer? Apparently not.

Uh, Michigan family, an Amish Michigan family. family had their horse and buggy stolen outside of a Walmart. I know what you're thinking. Wait, the Amish shop at Walmart? Yes, everyone, everyone shops at Walmart these days. So in Sturgis, Michigan, which is right here on the hand, reportedly this family had their horse and buggy hitched up. I don't know that Walmart offers a hitch station at this particular store.

Maybe it was just parked there. but a trucker parked at the lot said, hey, someone is taking the old horse and buggy. It doesn't look like the Amish family. And so they reported it and called the police. Okay. So the police showed up and they started looking for it. Now, I didn't know Sturgis was this large of a town,

but it took them a number of hours to find the. horse and buggy. They finally did, parked outside of a motel, and they arrested the female that stole the horse and buggy. Apparently, they had a run-in with her earlier in the day, or more than one run-in earlier in the day. We don't know why. But they have arrested the 31-year-old suspect, and she's been charged with larceny and larceny of livestock pending the arraignment. good news for the Amish family, the horse and buggy was returned. So I guess they hurried on home. I don't know if the ice cream melted.

I don't know what purchases they used. But they got their horse and buggy back. I love the story. At the end, it says the Amish are an ethno-religious group known for their plain old-fashioned clothing and forgoing most contemporary technology. Thank you. Times are tough, though. Times are tough. Nothing is sacred. Not even the Amish horse and buggy is safe in America. Man, we live in incredible times. Welcome. Welcome to Chewing the Fat. We do have some breaking news today here on Chewing the Fat. For those of you listening live,

today is the 29th of January, 2024. Breaking news and sad news. Well, and happy news. All, wrapped up into one little story. Bernard Arnault and his family is now the richest in the world. I know. Elon Musk is no longer number one. Very, very sad news. I don't know if we're going to have to start a go-fund me

for Elon or not. The Arnault family and Bernard Arna the LVMH CEO is now worth $207.8 billion after a $23.6 billion increase recently, and passing Musk's $204.5 billion. I know.

Elon lost $18 billion recently. So he's number two. And I know in a lot of people's eyes, he is number two these days. But he is literally number two, at least in the richest man on the planet list. Very sad. very sad. And as long as we're talking about money, I might as well let you know that no one

hit the mega millions or the powerball jackpot. So we have the mega millions, which is going to be drawn tomorrow the Tuesday, the 30th of January, worth 311 million jackpot, 147.0 cash payout. The power ball, no one hit. That drawing is tonight.

The 29th, Monday. a 174 million, 83.9 million cash payout. So good luck to those of you that are playing in the lotto. And if you win, you may feel like you're the richest man or family in the world, but you're not. You are not even close. But $147 million of the bank account would be pretty sweet. So would even the $83.9 million. pretty sweet in the bank account, but it does not put you on the list with Mr. Arnault and Mr.

Mosque. I don't understand how people think sometimes. I know that comes as a surprise, but I just don't. I don't understand these so-called activists that let's not talk about the ones who are blocking roadways. I seriously don't understand how they think blocking roadways is going to get people on their side. truly don't. But then we have the activists in Europe who are throwing soup on works of art.

And it's not really on works of art since the works of art are behind bulletproof glass. So they're just throwing soup on a bulletproof glass covering the work of art. So this group, repostelemente or food response, posted their video. they threw soup on the Mona Lisa. And the women, who the group identified as Sasha 24 and Marie Juliette 63, crossed a protective wooden railing and went on the other side and started throwing soup onto the Mona Lisa or the bulletproof glass over the Mona Lisa. And they call themselves the integration of food into the general social security. system. Okay. In France, one in three people skip meals due to the lack of means. Perhaps you could

have fed them the soup you threw on the wall. That's just a thought. I don't know. At the same time, 20% of the food produced is thrown away. Hugh bastards. Yeah, with you throwing food onto the wall over some painting, some painting that's covered up. So their model stigmatizes the most precarious and does not respect our fundamental right for food. Members of the museum staff, you see him on video rushing to hide the painting behind protective panels, you know, whatever, they're trying to cover it up. The French agriculture and food industry has become more profitable, and those excessive profits are estimated to be responsible for two-thirds of inflation. You bastards! The statement also said European free trade treaties created unfair conditions for French growers versus foreign

products that do not meet minimum ecological and social standards. Agriculture is responsible for 21% of national greenhouse gas emissions and contributes greatly to the deterioration of our biodiversity and the impoverishment of soils due to the massive use of inputs. Okay. Well, you throw in soup over the bulletproof glass of the Mona Lisa has convinced me. You know what? I am against it all.

I'm mostly against you and what you're doing. But sure, hey, let's go ahead and talk about food security, shall we? Let's say you're walking through the Louvre, and you're there to see the Mona Lisa. And these two women show up and throw soup on the Mona Lisa. Why was the museum covering up? Let's take pictures of it. Let's see it.

Let's see how beautiful the Mona Lisa is with your two jars of soup thrown over. It's just ridiculous. And the people blocking roadways to airports and to anything is just insane to me. You're making hardworking people suffer to try to win them to your cause. I just, seriously, I don't understand how people think. But again, it's just me, I guess. Marshall's buyers travel far and wide, hustling for great deals on amazing gifts. you don't have to. They've bagged this season's Italian leather handbags. Designer. Handpicked the

but I do see them and thank you for sending them. I really appreciate it. Like this one from Ted, who said, Jeffie, surprised to hear you were a kicker in your younger days. Me too. I was a kicker in high school, freshman through a senior. We were, uh, I don't know, were you a straight on kicker like me or soccer style? I had a square-toed shoe that I had come to the sidelines to exchange every time after a kick.

Boy, you were first class. I played an offense, defense, and special teams. It was always a scramble to change the shoes. Coach wouldn't let me kick extra points or field goals. It's almost not a bit of that big. a challenge. I mean, you just had to change shoes for kickoffs. He said percentages were better to go for two every time. Practicing, I could make them from about 40 yards at least. Okay, so a kicking story. Yes, I kicked in high school. I kicked in junior high and in high school. The story that I told was

that I had missed an extra point when this was in junior high school. And I came off, I was one of the few kids that year that had a brand new helmet on the team. And I came off to the sidelines and I threw my helmet down and that's when my head coach told me to put that helmet back on it's worth more than you are that's uplifting uh for a student athlete anytime anytime if a coach tells you that the helmet is worth more than you man do you want to continue playing for him there's no doubt about that I was a straight on kicker I did not have a square toe uh which is probably why I missed the extra point actually but I kicked all through high school and I did miss very many uh we didn't never kicked field goals. I mean, in those days, you know, just like your coach who believed that

we're going for two. We don't kick extra points. And so, you know, we played in the day, we'll score touchdowns. We don't kick field goals. We score touchdowns. And so it was part of that. So I kicked off and kicked, you know, the extra points. I don't remember ever kicking a field goal, actually. That's interesting now that I think about it. I don't remember ever kicking a field goal. I taught my son, who was a great kicker. He played soccer. I made him play. I played soccer. I made him play soccer for years until he finally said, Dad, can I play football? American football? And so, you know, that's when he started

playing and, you know, he was, you know, awesome and all the athletics that he tried. And some, you know, people are just like that. That's why I went into the NFL. Big surprise. Anyway, I wanted him to be a kicker in college.

He was, he kicked in soccer. He had a great leg. So I taught him to kick field goals, and he had a great leg. And I wanted him to be the lineman who kicks field goals and extra points in college. You know how much, you know how much press you would get as the lineman in college? Who was the kicker as well? It would have been huge.

But as an alignment, as a 6-5, 320-pound lineman, 310-pound lineman, I'm not being a kicker. I'm not a kicker in college. I'm not no kicker. Should have been. Should have been. It would have been a great story. And he would have been all over ESPN.

But, you know, hey, what do I know? Nothing is what I know. Nothing. Speaking of football, we had the big games on the weekend. Yes, I know. The Chiefs beat the Ravens and the 49ers beat the Lions. So we've got the Super Bowl in Vegas coming up on Sunday, February 11th, as the Kansas City Chiefs taking on the San Francisco 49ers.

I was hoping I thought there for a man. minute. We were going to have the Detroit Lions and the Kansas City Chiefs. We'd have the M&M, Taylor Swift, Super Bowl in Vegas. But nope, it is not that way. I don't, I cannot believe if you, I can't, I can't believe just as a side note. I cannot believe the Detroit Lions lost that game to the San Francisco 49ers. But they did. So congratulations to both teams, the Chiefs, and the 49ers. I mean, Baltimore, their offense just disappeared. And Kansas City. has been there a thousand times before. I'm sorry, it's making their fourth trip to the title game

after beating the Ravens. So congratulations to them. And looking forward to the Super Bowl football season is now, you know, really done. Just amazing. I don't even know if Taylor's going to be there for the Super Bowl because she has to play her concert in Tokyo. And so if she goes, she'll just make it.

And maybe we could just put a tracker on her. and we can find out where she's at all times so that she can be from Tokyo to Vegas and get there in time for the game because we don't want her missing the game. Maybe, maybe, maybe the NFL can just set up a screen and she can watch the game with her fans in Tokyo and do a concert and they can do the Super Bowl right there in Tokyo

and bring all the fans and Taylor can be there for her boyfriend, Travis, and it'll just be great, won't it? Yes, it will be. That's going to be agonizing. But that's what it is. That's what it is. Plus, they had in the, in the Chiefs Ravens game, they had something that I had not seen before,

and as I'm reading about it, I remember that we had seen it before. So the Chiefs' Ravens game delayed because there was a drone hovering over M&T Bank Stadium. And so they just paused it for an administrative timeout, which, I mean, I hadn't heard them call it that before. That's one of the things I hadn't heard is administrative timeout.

And so they went and I guess they shot down the drone. And they found the drone operator and they shot him as well. No, they found the drone and they shut it down. Now, it didn't belong to CBS. They never said if they found the person who was flying the drone or not. There's punishment for flying a drone too close to a football game. You know, the FAA, I guess you can be fine. and let's see.

The FAA has laws in place to prohibit the flying of drones over stadiums. Drones are not allowed to fly in or and around stadiums that seat 30,000 people one hour before and until one hour after any of the following sporting events. MLB, NFL, NCAA, NASCAR races. The FAA have even had some sketchy slogans

to help fans remember. It's game race day. Put your drone away. Ooh, thank you. Be a good sport. Leave your drone at home. Okay. Now, I did not know this.

There were more than 1,400 drone-related incursions just a couple of years ago for the NFL. I don't know if it's gone up or if it's gone down, but this is from 2021. They claim that can result in criminal prosecution, civil penalties up to $37,377 per event. So if you're flying a drone, don't get caught. Do not get caught. But it also happened on Thursday night game on Amazon where they shut it down. They took a break to get the drone out. I remember seeing that footage now.

So it's just people flying drones and filming it. On top of which, the NFL is not letting you film stuff that doesn't belong to them. So let alone what the FAA have laws against. I mean, the NFL, they will shoot. down. You're filming a national football league event without the okay of them. Yeah, we are bringing that drone down, my friend.

were discovered frozen in the backyard of their friend's house in Kansas City after a football game? I guess not. You know, we're still claiming that the client had no idea the men were outside. They were, he was only made aware of the bodies after the police showed up, after a family member, you know, actually broke into his home looking for them and found a body on the back porch.

The apparent of one of the men, he can't believe it. He doesn't, he doesn't think that it's as simple as these guys were doing drugs and died in the backyard, freezing to death. I'm aware, said the dad, that they may have done some substances that were questionable. But the idea was to get high, not dead. If they were supposed to be friends, why didn't Willis? That's the man's home. Come to find them. I'm sure they have a hundred different answers to that.

But, you know, I'm not sure that that answers my question. Her son smoked cigarettes, drank beers. One mother said, but she doesn't believe he overdosed. And did that we're going to find out something happened. So he believes. and so does this mother that they saw something they weren't supposed to see. And then they were frozen to death in the backyard. The guy, Willis, said he slept for almost 48 hours after they left.

Oh, okay. Okay. I know that those two parents anyway of two of the three believe that Willis had an active role in their son's death. So we're awaiting the investigation. As of right now, the Kansas City police say that Willis, the homeowner, is not suspected of any wrongdoing and is not facing criminal charges. So we'll see how long that lasts. Another case that's ongoing is the Alec Baldwin. Sorry, those are still the rules whenever I mention his full name.

the good shot has to be fired. If I just mention his first name, then you'll hear the gun cocking sound. That's the rules of the show. All right? So, I mean, I don't make them. Those are the rules of the show. Well, actually, I do make them.

But there's still the rules of the show. So apparently, I thought it was all good. You know, we were all happy. Helena Hutchins's, you know, family and husband, and they were all happy about it. The attorney for the family of Cinema photographer Helena Hutchins said that SAG AFRA's defense of Alec amid these new potential charges flies in the face of common sense and law. So I mean, we've got the, you know, he was indicted

again earlier this month after a grand jury presented with new investigation. So, you know, they charged him before. They took him down. Now they've charged him again. So we'll see. And they're calling this evidence, this new evidence, you know, they're calling the evidence new, but really they, the parts of the gun, they put new parts in. I don't see how they can, how they can do this to Alec Baldwin. But, you know, I hate to be on his side, but I am on this, on his side for this, for sure. Strange things are happening in courts all over the world, all over this country, for sure. Donald Trump, you know, was just told that he owed, what's her face, $83 million. What a joke. You know, I was thinking this weekend that I remember a time. I was in New York

and Donald Trump pushed me into a dressing room of a Macy's. And I know you were to thinking Donald Trump was never in a Macy's. Well, I remember that he was. And he did unspeachia. And he did unspeachies. speakable things to me. And so the only thing that would solve that is for him to give me $83 million. I may settle out of court for, you know, 10 million, but right now, 83 million. That's it. Just unbelievable. That whole story is just incredible.

So who died today? Who died today? Well, Tennessee news anchor Amanda Hanson. dies at the age of 38. They are devastated. They announced the loss of their colleague. Amanda was a beloved journalist, Memphian, colleague, friend, part of the Action News 5 team and was the driving force behind the Action News 5 digital desk.

She had a medical emergency and died from complications. No further details were available. I don't know why you're looking at me like that because I know what you're thinking and it isn't that otherwise they would have said it. What they said was she suffered from a medical emergency and that she died from complications from that medical emergency. That's what they said. They didn't say that. So you could stop looking at me like that. Then we have adult film actress and her boyfriend.

Every story mentions Jesse James. actress who appeared in entourage and bad girls, including her work in adult film industry, has died at the age of 43. Oh yeah, and her boyfriend was there too. This Brett Hassan-Muller. Wait, what?

Yeah, he was there, too. We don't know who he is. We don't know how old he was. We just found it. He was there, too. Oh, okay. So the Oklahoma local reporting actually does mention Brett Hassan-Muller,

33, who passed away. as well. There was a welfare check requested by Hassan Miller's employer who said, hey, we haven't heard from him in a few days. Maybe you could drive over there and check it out. And so they did and they were both

dead. Appeared to have died from an overdose. Very sad. We'll find out once the medical examiner does their medical examining. But the police do not believe foul play. Or that

was involved because they believed that it was a drug overdose. Very sad. But Jesse Jane, the former porn star, and, you know, her boyfriend, Brett, was there as well. Dead. Jesse Jane, dead at the age of 43. And Brett Hassanmuller, dead at the age of 33. And can we stop making Hugh Hefner out to be this bad guy? I mean, Hugh is an American icon.

Am I right? So apparently Crystal Hefner has written a memoir and her memoir only say good things, the surviving Playboy and finding myself out. It's out now, as a matter of fact. I may have to look for a copy. Maybe I have to interview Crystal because I don't want a bad mouth, Hugh. All right, Hugh was an American icon. But she's revealed in her memoir that she found little spy holes at the foot

of her husband's bed, evidence that he was taping his sexual escapades. Yeah, did you think he wasn't? Did we think that Hugh Hefner was just going through all these playboy models and not filming it? I think not. And she asked about it, and he said, I used to do a lot of filming.

I had hours of video, hundreds of sexy tapes. And she started, it's my bedroom, my house. Yeah, no kidding. He told her, now this is her speaking secondhand now. He told her that he had A-list celebrities on tape as well as videos of wild orgies, also with celebrities and politicians and business leaders, some of whom were married.

I think cameras were out of commission by the time I got there, but these carved wood panels in one of the panels on the right had a circular cutout. Oh, yeah, no problem. Can we get a hold of those VHS tapes? Because I know you don't want to look, but I will on your. behalf. Boarding for flight 246 to Toronto is delayed 50 minutes. Ugh, what?

Now, as you know, no one supports zoos more than myself or this show chewing the fat. I, you know, I love zoos. But there's a zoo in Lincolnshire Wildlife Park in the UK that a couple of years ago had parrots donated to them.

parents Billy Eric Tyson, Jade, and Elsie. I don't know who donated them, and I feel like they came from separate owners, but they are cursing up a storm, and they had separated them from all the other parents, so the other parents wouldn't start cursing with them. And I guess they had a separate section for Billy, Eric, Tyson, Jade, and Elsie

where you could go and go in and see. say, hey, how's it going? And they would tell you to F off. And that would be hilarious. And what a great fundraiser for the zoo. Well, the word police are back at it again. Apparently, they had a couple of new cuss happy birds. Eric, Captain, and Sheila, along with the original five miscreants.

And so they've decided that they don't like the foul-mouth African gray parrots any longer. So they've decided to rehabilitate them. Now, what they're going to do is they're going to put the cussing parrots in with the 92 non-swearing ones. I want the 92 to start swearing so bad. I want the entire parrot sanctuary with nothing but effus. And then then the Lincolnshire Wildlife Park. and say, well, we should have just kept them separate. Now, that having been said, if it doesn't work or it doesn't work the way they want it to,

you know, they want the, obviously the eight parents would learn to make nice noises like microwaves and vehicles reversing like the other nice parents. But if the 92 start swearing up a storm, they're going to have to turn it into an adult aviary. I mean, it's going to be awesome. You're going to have to be just, you're going to have to be adults, you're going to have to go in and you're going to have 92 parents telling you to F off. Come on, man. That is a fundraiser. You are, you're charged some money to get into that.

And that's also a great way to have your own YouTube channel, the parents, the adult aviary section of the swearing parents on the YouTube channel. I mean, live streams, it's a great way to go. So let's hope that the experiment, of the wildlife park works the opposite way that they wanted to because that, my friends, would be awesome. Now, these African grays, I will say it, you know, they are really smart and they, you know, they talk. And I've been around them.

My first mother-in-law had one named Pete. And, you know, he would sing, he would sing a way down upon the Swanee River, and he would know people's names. And he was a pretty good bird. if he knew you and you could be around him, you could take him out of the cage. You had this, you know, giant cage. My oldest son, Elvis, that bird loved him.

Elvis could pick up that bird and throw it across the room. Elvis, Elvis! I mean, that bird Pete loved Elvis. When he was a little baby, he used to play in a little crib prison area next to the bird when he stayed there at his grandma's house. And that bird loved that kid. Now, I don't know that it would take quite a lot for Pete to learn these cussing words, because we tried.

And it didn't really work. Now, maybe Pete was, you know, a little slow. Maybe Pete was just didn't care. Say, you know what, I speak what I want to speak. And you can just leave me alone. Maybe that's the case. But I want these parents so bad. I want the 92 to just become.

cussing parrots at this wildlife park so bad. So just make it happen. Make it so. Do you remember the movie The Help? It's from 2011. Now, I do not remember this movie. It was a huge movie. It made all kinds of money, won all kinds of awards.

I mean, there was full of stars in this movie. Just, you know, it's a Tremesey Spaceach, Amistone, Octavia Spencer, a Bryce Dallas Howard, Vola Davis, Jessica Chantane. They were all in it. All these stars were in it. And it was just, I never saw it from 2011.

I didn't remember this movie. So I watched it this weekend with my wife. And it's a period drama. It's written and directed. Features the, you know, the huge cast. It's based in 1963 in Jackson, Mississippi. And it's, you know, it's about this girl who wants to become a legitimate journalist. So Skeeter, who.

decides to write a book from the point of view of the maids in Jackson, Mississippi and exposing the racism they face as they work for white families and black domestic workers in the 60s in America referred to as the help, hence the title of the journalist expose and the novel and the film. The help brings to light the challenges and discrimination that African-American people faced. Okay. So I got it. Now, I watch this movie. and it's based around the civil rights movement. They lock in some events that happened in real life. But as far as I know, it's not a real thing.

All right, it's just a made-up story. All right. And I will say this. I saw that, you know, they all won awards and it's all wonderful. And now the cast has, you know, over the years have, you know, spoken out against the film. Oh, really? Yeah, yeah.

after you earned all your money and you made a couple hundred million dollars and for your $25 million budget and you've all made a bunch of money and got your awards and so you know it was up on Netflix I guess I don't know I saw it on one of the streaming uh one of the streaming channels I don't know if it was Netflix or or prime but uh now it just says that uh you know it's outdated and the movie is so out of touch uh that in the wake of the George Floyd protest okay it's it's a movie about the help. I got it. I watched the whole thing. And the way, look, the way they were treated, they, the help were treated, which were predominantly black maids in this city, covered a lot of ground. And much of what they talked about and what happened, you can see it actually happening, right?

However, throughout the whole thing, by the end of the movie, and I enjoyed it, it was fine. I love all the actors and actresses in the movie. They did a great job. It's no wonder that they won all the awards that they did and earned a lot of money. For whatever reason, in 2011, I did not see this movie. That was a busy time in my life between 2009, 10, and 11. Those were busy years between Florida and New York and Pennsylvania. Anyway, so I never saw this movie. However, I will say, at the end of this movie, what I got out of it? And apparently, that's not what I was supposed to get out of it, because my wife was very unhappy with me.

But what I got out of it was that I wanted a maid. I didn't say I wanted an African-American maid. I don't care what skin color the maid is, but it made me want a maid. And apparently, that was not what the movie was supposed to make me feel, which leads me to the joke of the day. I'll just get this over with and we'll get out of here today. Thanks for listening to Chewing the Fat.

Here's the joke of the day. That story leading into the joke of the day is the same kind of thing. My wife asked me which of her friends I would like to have a threesome with. Apparently, I'm not supposed to pick two of them. Think about it. Oh, and yes, today is my birthday. Thank you for all the birthday. The birthday shoutouts.
