This is the Jeff Fisher show on the Blaze Radio Network. Hello. Happy. Happy day to you. How you doing? I mean, between the beheadings, the bombings, and Iraq, Israel. I mean, I know, I got it. Some would say that maybe, you know, Hamas is loaded back up again.

Not that anybody thinks that when they run out of rockets, that's when they start talking about, oh, we need a ceasefire agreement. Uh-huh. How long is that going to last? Well, just until we, you know, get another order in. Uh-huh. And then we have shootings and riding going on right here in this country. And we have border crossing problems still.

Yeah, you know, those are legals coming across. Don't worry about those. Forget about those. We don't even talk about those anymore. Forget about it. We're building a fence. We got it. We're building a fence.

We've already, our policy makers have already authorized the crisis support package. for the Ukraine. So don't worry about it. We're helping the Ukraine build a fence to separate Ukraine and Crimea. Don't worry about it. Fences are good everywhere else, but here in the United States of America.

Anyplace else? Good. Separation, good. Here? Horrible. Welcome to it. This is the Jeff Fisher program on the Blaze Radio.

network 888-90-3033 is the phone number you know I was out shopping now long ago with the family which is just a boatload of fun but I stood back and I looked at we were at we were at Sam's Club and I looked at the frozen food dairy section and you know they got the juices and the milk and the creams and the butters and the I can't believe it's not butters and you know the whole the whole story of things and I'm looking at the prices and I'm thinking those prices are a lot higher than they were just a little while ago I mean it seems like everything I know that you know every food gas good services all appear to be going to up, but more than a peer.

I truly believe they are. We're happy the other day. I drive by the gas station, and I'm thinking, 314. Wow. 314. We're getting that $3 mark, man. I must be pretty close. I wonder if we're ever going to get below 3 again, ever.

And then, boom, the next day, 326. What happened? What? I mean, also 10 cents more? Yeah, I got too close to three. Can't have it. They can't have that. You started thinking, but you weren't the only one that started thinking about it's going to be $3 a gallon.

We've got to shoot that back up again. You're thinking out of your mind if you think that. And then I see the Tax Foundation group here has created the relative value of $100. Well, which state? offer the biggest bang for your buck now would you you know take it back who you think who you think has the biggest bang for your buck would you say I don't know the great state of Texas of which I live in they say $103 and 63 cents the tax foundation says you get $103.63 for a $100 value okay maybe maybe I agree with that so you start thinking well who's the

highest. Who could possibly be the highest? Arkansas, they say, is 114. A little over 114 is some change. But the number one state, it looks like, out here is Mississippi. Now, Mississippi is beautiful. I love Mississippi. Drove through there not long ago. A couple years ago, it was gorgeous. It was actually more beautiful than I had anticipated. And because the only time I've been through there before is where you take 10 through as you're driving across. That's all you see. Oh, that's great. No, I actually went through the state, and it's really beautiful. Now, they're saying you get, you know, more bang for your buck in Mississippi, $15 and change,

almost $116 for, you know, $100 value. Now, where would you want to be? You don't want, you don't want more bank for your buck, do you? No. You want, what would be the worst, do you think? The worst state in the union? Hmm. California, maybe?

88 57. I find that hard to believe too because I was just out in California not long ago and I would be hard pressed to tell you you're getting $88 worth of value for every hundred you spend. I would venture to say it's probably closer to 75, but that's just me. Hawaii. Yes, Hawaii, congratulations. You're in second place, 8532, 8532,

$85.32. Now, ask yourself, what would be worse than $8532? What would be worse than $8532? What place would be worse than... If you said D.C., you would be right. 846. 8460. And I'm, you know, I was...

That's probably about right. We were in D.C. a couple of years ago for an event, and that's probably about right. It feels about right. But your state, wherever you're at, good luck. I don't know that this doesn't seem, this is, the data is up to April of this year, so it's pretty close according to the Tax Foundation.org maps. But I don't know that. I'd like to, I'm going to have to go back and just do that.

dig into exactly how they're using their data on this, because it really seems like some of these states they're claiming you get more for your buck than I think you do. But guess what? It's not going to matter for me anymore anyway. Why? No. No, I didn't win the Texas State lottery.

I didn't win the Powerball. but I did get an email in my mailbox this morning. You're going to be so jealous. It's from Mr. Bradley Johnson, and he worked as an auditor for the Bank of Scotland. His department covers the entire Scotland. In fact, his department covers the entire Scotland, Wales, and England. I can't tell you how excited I am.

I'm just letting you know this because when I'm not here, you know that my main man, Mr. Bradley Johnson, took care of me because this was in my email today. I'll just read you the email. Why not? I'm not going to be it around the bush. This is the email I received, okay? So you'll know why I'm not here once I reply to this email. I'm waiting to get done to talk to you today.

And then I'm going to reply. I've taken great pains to find your contact through personal endeavors. However, I apologize for my interference into your privacy, as this was done out of my desire to locate a sincere and trustworthy individual who can guarantee the confidence needed in this matter. On a routine audit check last month, I discovered an investment account that has been dormant for the last 14 years. And all the accounts belonging to a single holder with funds totaling a little above six,

million dollars. Banking regulations in the UK demands that the fiscal authorities be notified when accounts are dormant for this period as this will enable the funds to be called in by the regulatory bodies and pass on as an unclaimed fund into the coffers of the UK government. No one wants that. My investigation reveals the late client originated from your country, and this is why you. I can confirm with certainty that the said investor died. into state and no next of kin has been found or has come forward in all these years. This is what I got my email this morning. Jealous yet?

My proposal is, this is, of course, Mr. Bradley Johnson, my proposal is I'm prepared to place you in a position to give instruction for the release of the deposit to you as the closest surviving relation since you share the same last name with the deceased client. Oh, this is especially, I have got goosebumps right now. This is especially possible as you bear same last name with the late client. Oh, oh. I understand well enough that what I relate to you will smack of unethical practice.

No. But I want you to understand it is only an outsider to the banking world who, finds the internal politics of the banking world aberrational. I can guarantee that this transaction will be executed under a legitimate arrangement that will protect us without breaching any law. To affirm your cooperation, please endeavor to provide me with your contact information so we can discuss in details. Once I read back from you, I will furnish you with the next step.

regards Mr. Bradley Johnson. So, once I reply to old Bradley, the wheels will be in motion. And I, Jeff Fisher, from the Jeff Fisher Show, will be $6 million richer. Yeah, so when you tune in next week, and I'm not here, you know, the old. Bradley Johnson pulled through with 6 million from the UK

for Jeff. Here we go. This is the Jeff Fisher Show on the Blaze Radio Network. Fisher Show returns. Welcome to it. 1-88-90-3-33 is the phone number. Don't forget Michael Pelka with

Pure Opelka coming up immediately following this broadcast. And then Cain and Cup, Chris Salsito, Mike Slater, Joe Pags. I mean, there's no There's no reason for you to go anywhere else today than right here on the Blaze Radio Network. And seriously, if you're planning on going somewhere, I would change that shirt. I mean, I know you think it looks good on you this morning,

but you may want to have another cup of coffee and rethink that because you can tweet me, Jeff E, MRA on Twitter and Jeff Fisher on the old Facebook page if you want to get a word in. And don't forget when you're looking at your Twitter account, it's official now. And I noticed this actually the other day, and I thought, how come I'm getting these? And Twitter now is getting people used to getting tweets from people you don't follow. Yes, that's so nice of them. Twitter, they've officially changed the definition of timeline. That's nice of them.

So you're going to get tweets from time to time that aren't from people you follow. and that's just Twitter trying to be nice. darn Twitter. They're just so darn nice. Actually, I love Twitter. I'm not bad-mouthing Twitter at all. I'm just telling you what is going on with Twitter. And when you start seeing tweets from, you know, accounts that you don't follow.

That's why they threw them in there. You know, because their goal is to make your home timeline even more relevant and interesting. So when you tweet something and you mention, you know, my friend Bill from, New York, they may send you another tweet from a bill in New York and say, you know, Bill says this, just to see, you know, what happens. And that's, I mean, it's nice of them. And it is, you know, it's their thing.

They get to do with their company what they want to do. I mean, it's Twitter and they have a beautiful company, too. Their place, if you get an opportunity to take a look, maybe I'll tweet it later today. and the Twitter World Headquarters in I know San Francisco

this beautiful I mean they just re-did this old building in San Francisco it is gorgeous and I just looked at I looked at this a few months ago

when they were doing it it's just beautiful I mean you want to go there and just to be a part of Twitter because of it Now we were talking about a little earlier about how far your dollar goes and what state, you know, $100 seems like more than $100. But earlier this week, we found out that 36% of Americans haven't saved anything for retirement. 36% have not saved any money for retirement.

This is according to bankrate.com. and it's the New York Stock Exchange rate report, 69% of 18 to 29-year-olds haven't saved anything. You know, along with 33% of the 30-to-49-year-olds, 26% a quarter of the 50-to-64-year-olds, and 14% of the people 65-and older. Those are the people you see in still working, still being a janitor at the stores.

I mean, it's, I just saw a guy. Must have been, I don't know how old he was. Maybe he looks older than he is. Maybe he smoked meth all his life. I don't know. I can't feel sorry for him. I know. But he was pushing one of the janitor carts around, you know,

that has the mops and the brooms and the trash can and the mop bucket. And it's got, you know, it's kind of heavy, but it's wielding. You go through the store. And he's picking up sweeping and stuff. And I'm thinking, holy crap. I mean, I hope I don't have to do that when I'm 100. I hope I don't.

I mean, I am planning on living to be 100. I mean, who doesn't plan on living to be 100? But I don't want to be doing that. But we're going to be like the rest of these people with no money, just get used to it and plan on working. There is no retirement. There's no retirement. You work till you drop.

That's your retirement. Work till you drop. That's my hashtag today. on Twitter, okay? At Jeff E.MRA, work till you a drop. You don't like it? Tough. Then become the two-thirds of Americans

that have saved money for retirement, okay? 69% of the 18 to 29-year-olds haven't saved anything. I mean, that kind of makes sense when you're that young, you don't think you need to save anything. But, you know, usually if you have a job, well, oh, my gosh, jobs.

Oh, yeah, you have to have a job. though. Say money, don't you? Yeah, you sure do. Just crazy to start thinking about that. Jobs. Well, the economy's on the rebound. So don't you worry about that. 888-90-3-33 is the phone number. Blaze Radio Network. This is the Jeff Fisher Show. Michael Pelka, Pureo, Pellico, coming up right after this broadcast.

a little bit about Ferguson. We will talk a little bit about that. I know you're burned out on it. So am I. I really am. I really am. I'm completely burned out on it as well. But we've got to touch on a little bit, right? I mean, we're all there. It's big news. It's the U.S. It's like the firestorm starting. And remember my prediction. On this very broadcast, just a couple of weeks ago where I told you, and I picked Chicago, but it could be St. Louis. It could be the lockdown city that starts at all.

Just, you know, just for your safety. Just for your safety. This is the Jeff Fisher Show. Only on the Blaze Radio Network. This is the Jeff Fisher Show.

Yes, sir. Yes, ma'am. Welcome to it. Welcome to the broadcast. It's the extravaganza that is the Jeff Fisher show. I tease we talk a little bit about Ferguson. I know you're overwhelmed as I am. You're tired of it. My gosh, you're tired of it.

But with all the news surrounding Ferguson, we heard reports. We heard all kinds of misrepresentations. We've got all kinds of people in town. We're still riding. We're still storming. We still want justice. We still want mercy.

It doesn't matter. It won't matter at all. Once the police officer is exonerated or isn't exonerated, we're still going on. We heard from a guy that came to town from Chicago earlier in the week. Got no job. This happens to us all over every day. We are here to protest and fight and burn things down.

It doesn't matter. We have people in Ferguson that are afraid, afraid to come out of their homes at night because they don't want to be part of the mad run. It's agonizing. we have a Holocaust survivor Hetty Epstein Unbelievable

arrested in Ferguson racism is alive in America she says Hetty I love you I'm sorry what happened to you I know you're a Holocaust survivor I know that you're kind of old

you're pushing it I know what are you 100 now I'm sorry I'm sorry only 90 didn't need to sorry my fault 90 I know I got it

racism is alive in America is it yeah it's alive in America because we have race pushers keep pushing it on us how many times have we said what a great thing this president

this president the one that is in office right now Barack Hussein Obama what a great uniter he could have been to this country and yet no no he could have come to the table

and said, what a great country this is. He could have. I know we've been downed. I don't want to. I keep beating this horse. I mean, we saw headlines that said, how did the head of the new Black Panther Party become a peacemaker in Ferguson?

I don't think he did. I know that's what the headlines said. Oh, yeah, it sure did. I don't think that's what it said. We have police chiefs in other states. states writing Ferguson's police chief, writing the state police

the police chief Ed Delmore from Gulf Shores, Alabama. Writes a letter, an open letter, of course, to Captain Ronald S. Johnson. The letter says I have to call you out. I don't care what the media says. I expect them to get it wrong, and they often do, but I expect

you as a veteran law enforcement commander talking about law enforcement to get it right. Unfortunately, you blew it. Oh my gosh. And I'll tweet the whole letter, the whole story. The chief called Captain Johnson, knows that criminal events known to the suspect,

but not to the responding officer, bull, crap. He used a different word than crap. Officers die in incidents like Captain Johnson, including a couple that I remember from your own organization, said Chief Delmore. Now, the chief has not spoken out. He said the letter speaks for itself, read the letter, move on. And he goes on and on.

He talks about, he was mad. He was talking about they're saying that it was wrong, that St. Louis, that Ferguson released the video of Michael's. Come on. Of course it was relevant.

The whole thing is relevant. And then we got news of the police officer being injured. The whole eye socket thing and he couldn't see any shooting and the cute little Michael. Didn't we hear that he was supposed to go to college? Has we found out exactly what college that was?

or was the report that he had just graduated in high school he was 18 and he was planning on going to college or someone was planning on him going to college maybe that was it maybe that was it someone was planning on him going to college right and then jesse jackson showed up now we did see you know of course he's going to be there of course forever now sheriff is going to be there of course the black panthers are of course they are Of course You know they are It's not just

I mean it's Have you ever been to St. Louis? I haven't lived there But I have been there several times I love St. Louis I could actually I mean when you are downtown St. Louis It's beautiful

I mean Around the arch And on the river And in the city it's gorgeous And in fact I've taken their public transport From the airport To downtown St. Louis

And it takes you to And from the airport It's cool, it's fun I might be subsidized by the government. They all are. I got it, but it still works. Fine. But you don't want to know, the first thing I was told when I went to St. Louis,

don't make a right and head out of town town. Okay, well, which way should I face? No, just don't make a right. Stay downtown. Okay. I got you, dog. No problem. So I guess if I was facing in the southerly direction

and made it right, I'd end up in Ferguson. Huh. But it's beautiful. we heard from that. We talked to people that live there and it's nice and some of them are afraid to make noise because some people are coming in a motot town. It's crazy. Can we stop?

Did we hear from our leaders? Have we heard from the president of the United States? You know, he says, yeah, I know. He comes out and he gives everybody the lip service of how terrible it is, but he doesn't condemn the riders. He doesn't condemn them in harsh enough words for me. And then we heard the tweet that Jesse Jackson,

oh, we heard the tweet. We didn't hear the tweet. We read if you're hearing tweets get help Jesse Jackson booed after asking for donations there's no audio of that and I doubt that happened you know that said that he went to pass the plate I don't think was Jesse going to Ferguson and firing up the crowd and then saying

oh by the way put some money in this hat for me for my church I don't think so maybe he is maybe he is I think Jesse Jesse gets his money from corporate backers he likes to have corporate backers help him out. You know, kind of like

big corporate backers. I don't know that Comcast or Time Warner Cable give him any money. I don't know that they do. I would guess, maybe. And you know they're looking to get together. So those of you that are fans of the Blaze TV and the Blaze Network, you should go to GetTheblaze.com and check it out.

And try to stop this Comcast Time Warner Cable merger. Get Theblaze.com. Your Voice Matters. We told you the story last week about their little party they were going to give for the FCC commissioner, and they were going to spend, you know, $150,000, $175,000 on it. And they were saying it was questionable.

They always gave money to this foundation. And this just happened to be the year that we were going to, you know, we were going to celebrate the FCC commissioner. I know it was a coincidence that she was going to, she's going to be taken care of the merger, between ourselves, but there was just a coincidence. There's absolutely no, nothing, nothing wrong, nothing. No, audio mind thinking that.

But, you know, since you found out, we're going to go ahead and pull our money. We'll pull our money. We don't want it to look bad for the FCC commissioner. That would look bad for her. Not us. We look bad for her. So we're going to pull our money. So your voice still is.

heard. Trust me. Get the blaze.com. 888-903.33. This is the Jeff Fisher Show. Of course, Michael Pelko, the Pure Elka broadcast immediately following this. Caney Cup, Will Knessy Cup, Chris Celcito, Mike Slater, Joe Pags, all coming up on this very network, the Blaze Radio Network. Coming up next, maybe we do a little Twitter blast. Here we go.

This is the Jeff. Jeff Fisher Show on the Blaze Radio Network. It's the Jeff Fisher Show. Hey, Day Day, 9-033 is the phone number. You can tweet me at Jeffie M-R-A. Michael Pelka and Puro Pelka, immediately following this broadcast on the Blaze Radio Network. This is the Jeff Fisher Show.

Day 1.45. Day 1.45. Sergeant Tamarisi being in prison in Mexico. my stomach. It almost makes me physically ill to say that to you. So please, someone, make it stop. Please make it stop. All right. Let's do a little bit of Jeff Fisher, Twitter blast. All right. Let's go. We also on Twitter this week, what did we learn? We learned that billionaire hedge fund manager Tom Steyer. Yes. Generalizing virtually all of America is not super sophisticated.

Yeah, we know. We know, Tom. We're not. We're just stupid people. We got it. We know, Mr. billionaire. You're smarter than us. I know.

We saw the tweet that said produce in a store. The store in England, which they're calling Fridgegate. All right. The tweet said, Sansbury's produce has been emptied. It looks like this now. Now, member of the staff said, we support Free Gaza. And he has explained with a question mark. And the shelves are completely empty.

Now, Colin Ebleby went to the store and wanted to know what at the store. I mean, the shelves are just completely wiped. It was free Gaza. So the store finally got around to saying, wow, this was unintentional. Oh, and it was not part of a larger anti-Israel or anti-Semitic. by that all. Oh, would you be wrong to think that? We would like to apologize for any inconvenience or offense caused.

The decision was taken in one store only to move these chilled products to cold storage elsewhere in that store for a short period on Saturday as a precautionary measure during a demonstration close by. So there was some kind of big demonstration going on close to this store that was free Gaza, and they decided, hey, we better, we better take all the Jewish food off the shelves. Because we don't want those people coming into our store and seeing that stuff on the shelves. And then two or three days later, we'll wait until our bosses get a hold of us. and, boy, then we'll put it back on there. And, you know, apparently, I'll tell you what,

we've now made the staff member has been suitably chastised to take all the Jewish food and all the kosher food off the shell because, whew, we do not want that. Twitter blast, Circus manure, give away a success that Eaton Robbers Church. You know, I saw this and I thought, well, what's the big deal?

People were tweeting about Eaton Rapids, getting manure from the circus. But they do that everywhere. Circus has come to town and they say, hey, come on, get the elephant poop. That's actually elephant dumb. I got it. Come on and get it. We got more than we know what to do with. You can use it for fertilizer and take it home, and it will grow things great.

And it's free. So that's what they do. So there you go. It's not that big a deal. Just follow the circus. free elephant dung. And remember, this is a little helpful hint from

Jeff Fisher today, too. We learned this earlier in the broadcast. If you're hearing Twitter, seek help. We also found out on Twitter that there's video proof of giant NYC rats that are not afraid of humans. Our own, our very own, Josiah Ryan,

in New York City. And the 40 seconds, we're right across from Bryant Park. I used to go down on that subway all the time when I was working there. when I was working in New York, I actually feel robbed because I looked for giant New York rats the entire two years I worked in New York City. I traveled in and out of New York from Pennsylvania on a train. I went to Penn Station. I walked around Penn Station.

I walked around subway stations. I went down to Grand Central Station. I walked around Grand Central. I lived in New Jersey, New Jersey for a summer. Right there at the beginning, I mean, I lived, Park Avenue. I lived on Park Avenue, you know, Park Avenue, New Jersey. Right there by the beginning of the tunnel heading into Manhattan. I mean, I lived for that place for two years.

Never saw one of those gigantic New York rats. I'd come into the city on Mondays. There'd be trash piled up along the sidewalks, and it smells great, too, by the way. Oh, Manhattan. I love you. In the summer, tremendous with the trash on the curb. But I had no huge rats. I used to see maybe some little ones down on the subway,

you know, down to the trains where the cars roll around, some little ones mucks and around. I guess maybe they're grown. According to the transit authority, they're giving them some kind of sterilization medicine, so they're not having babies. All right. Let's see.

We've got 18 million rats. Three million have been sterilization. paralyzed. Okay, that's to least 15 billion rats. Wait. No, seriously, you're not going to get rid of New York. But nice try. At least you can keep them in check. I got it. I got it. But if you go to the blaze.com, it appears that Josiah was attacked

by a rat. He was on the platform, and he pops a video, and the rat walks and does not try to run away from him. In fact, runs toward him. And thankfully, I mean, I don't think he was attacked. According to the story, was not attacked. The rat just terrified him by coming at him. Maybe that's what the rat does.

It just kind of looks at you and then starts running toward you, so maybe you run away. It gives you that quick trip robbery of Michael Brown. Just look at you. Come at you. I am so bummed that I never saw on those big New York rats. I wanted to see those so bad. I want to see the big ones that everybody told me.

Big rats. No. No. Very disappointed. Very disappointed. Do we have more Twitter blast coming your way? I'm Jeff Fisher Program. 888-90-033 is the phone number.

You can tweet me at Jeffie MRA. And I know that I said, would someone please help us? Please, day 145. Sergeant Temer received. The Jeff Fisher Show. A Blaze Radio Network. The experiment was a success. Begin Life Force reboot program.

Now. Stand clear. Life signs stable. It's alive. Set it loose. This is the Jeff Fisher Show on the Blaze Radio Network. Welcome to it. This is the Jeff Fisher Show on the Blaze Radio Network. 888-90333 is the phone number. You know, I'm just sitting here looking at my electronic cigarette, thinking it's been almost three months.

Two and a half months, two months, three weeks, something like that, since I've had an actual cigarette. Now, I go days without puffing on my electronic cigarette. And, you know, it's a light-wise. It's a little 1.8% of the thing, and it's not the same thing. Although I keep it in my pocket once in a while to, you know, move my hands around a little bit, feel like I still have a cigarette. But I still want a cigarette.

I can't tell you. I mean, it's okay. I got it. I'm not going to smoke. I just, maybe not. Maybe I will. I'm watching these stupid TV shows, and they're all smoking, and everybody's smoking. All I want is a cigarette.

And so the other day, I'm driving home from work. Stop to get gas. I'm pumping gas. A guy at a motorcycle pulls up on the other side of the tank. He's parked a little ways away from the tank. He sits on his bike. He lights up a cigarette. It smelled so good.

The smoke. Afternoon air. It was in the shade underneath the hundred underneath the roof of the gas station. Smoke was wafing through the air. It smelled so good. So I got to pumping my gas, and I just turned around, and I looked across the road at what he was looking at,

hoping that we could find something in common so that I could talk to him and maybe say something that we could both chuckle at. And then I would mention his cigarette smelling so good, and he would say, oh, well, here, have one. And then that would give me an excuse to smoke, because it smelled so good. So I look across the street and there's police officers pulling somebody over. Of course, it's the same Dingleberry police officers that pulled me over a while ago.

Which drives me insane, that guy. That's another story in itself. So I say, oh, my gosh. And he goes, yeah, it looks like somebody's getting arrested. I don't know that they need all three of those police officers there. But I just sitting here watching them. And I went, well, don't mind me. I'm just going to stand here and watch them with you for a little while

because that cigarettes you're smoking smells great. I haven't had one in a couple of months. and boy does that cigarette you're smoking smell great. And I could tell he was thinking about something. And he looked up, and he looked at me and he said, yeah, does it? Because I was just sitting here beating myself up for smoking this cigarette. So I just bought a brand new pack and I'm pissed. Because yesterday I went to the doctor and I got all this non-smoking stuff to stop smoking

and then I bought this pack and I'm just sitting here beating myself up for smoking this cigarette. So keep it up. You're doing great. Don't smoke. I'm trying to quit, too. And I thought, ah! Ugh!

All you had to do was say, here, have a cigarette. Here, Jeff, have a cigarette. We'll become smoking friends. But no. No. No, you had to be part of the same whole non-smoking cabal that the rest of these people are in in my life.

But don't want me to smoke is driving me insane. So I just hope someday soon, the I want a cigarette feeling goes away. Because right now it's been almost three months and it has not gone, I mean, it does go away for, you know, brief periods of time. And perhaps those brief periods of time get longer. But it's still there. And one of these days, there's going to be a guy sitting at a motorcycle smoking a cigarette on the other side of my gas tanks. and when I say, well, I'll just stand here and look across the street with you a little bit because your cigarettes, your smoke, it smells great, and I just want to stand here for a little bit.

That particular person will say, does it? Well, here, have one. And that will push me over the edge. And I'll be back to firing that bad boy up. This is the Blaze Radio Network, Michael Pelka, Pure O Pelka, coming up right after this broadcast. You know, Saturdays is the place to be on the Blaze Radio Network, really. I mean, we started off with this podcast. Then you've got Canaan Cup after Mike Opelka.

Chris Elsaid. Mike Slater, Joe Pags. El Pelca's slaving, slaving in the studios waiting to broadcast his show. Well, I babble on about my non-smoking. I mean, he might have actually something of interest. So, you know, stick around for that. 888-9033-93. So earlier in the week, I read the story about a mom who created an app,

so kids can't ignore her calls. Now, the first, my gut reaction, of that is, I guess that's okay. Okay. I'll give you that. Well, Sherrod's Sanderford, served with the Gulf War. She was mad

that her kid didn't call her back. So she came up with an app that makes it simple. If you lock your child's phone would ignore no more, your child has two options. He or she can call you back or call for an emergency responder, but that's it.

no other calls until that happens. That's the app. Okay. A tad bit controlling mom. Just a tad bit. I guess I kind of get it. You know, maybe your kids got a job. How about that?

How about your kids got a job? You know, now he can't do anything unless he calls you back. So I wonder, I'm trying to think, when that actually will work. work because maybe perhaps you could just trust your kid. You know, maybe you just trust your kid. How about that? To text you back. Call you back. You say, you know, I raised you most of your life. And when I call you, I know you're at work. So just call me. You see that I called or text you, you call me back as soon as you can. It's okay. I can wait. If it's an emergency, I'll go to your work and find you and let you know that there's an emergency.

and we need to take care of something. Or I'll know where you're at because you are my child. So, I mean, it's a tad bit controlling. And then I thought, well, how do you get around that? Because you know, kids that are going to get around it, that's what kids do. That's what I do. Why not? So you put the app on the kid's phone, and A, they just start calling the emergency services, right?

Because don't you get fine for that? So I just keep calling emergency service. until the parents are going to have a hefty fine, hefty, hefty fine. Maybe they take the app off your phone by then. Or you get a burn phone. I know it sounds. I know. Drug a go.

Burn phone. But you just get a cheap phone. Pay as you go phone at Walmart for $10 or $20. And you're good. So your mom calls and you can't call out? Okay, no problem. I'll use this phone. But you call your mom when you want,

just like you would have to begin with. So, okay. All right. I think it's a little controlling, Mom. I think you need to relax just a little bit. There are some pretty cool apps. I mean, that's the way, there are some pretty cool apps out there.

My wife has an app. She was going around the house crazy the other day, scanning the UPC codes of the products we have in the house. Because the NSA doesn't have enough information on us. She's got to put it in the cell phone so they know exactly what products are inside her house. I got it. But, oh, I just, I just thought of that. That's what they're doing.

I just thought of that. That's what I'm like, God. Now, I've got to take the app off the phone. Now it has to stop. I'm talking about this app now, the new app that scans the barcodes of the grocery stores, and it lets you know what political party the company or employees support. Do I care? Do I care?

really really do I care am I not going to buy Heinz ketchup if I find out Heinz ketchup donated a bunch of money to people I don't like I'm still buying Heinz ketchup okay I don't care John Kerry and the wife and everybody they don't have anything to do with it anymore I believe they sold it to another winning person uh I think uh I think what's his face out of Nebraska right owns it now I think his company owns Hines now. And so, I don't care. I'm buying Heinz's ketchup. And I'm buying the products that I want. I don't care. I don't care if Warren Buffett owns Hines.

I don't care if John Kerry owns it. I don't care. If the product is good and I want to use it, I'm going to use it because the product is there. But this app will help you. My wife's app, oh my God, I just thought this has to go away. My wife's app is such a cool app. And yet it's exactly what it's doing. It's letting the NSA know what's in my home. You go around, you scan.

It's like what you do at the grocery store. I worked at a grocery store for years. And when you order, when you order at the grocery store, you go along the shelf, and the shelf holds so much. The shelf holds whatever, whatever amount of food, you know, six cans of cream corn. And so you go to the shelf and it's down three cans. Okay, well, you order a cake, you know, you order,

you need three cans of cream corn. Beek. Then you go in the back room and you scan what's in the back. room, beep, beep, beep, and then the machine says, oh, you've got canned corn, cream corn in the back. So it doesn't order any from the warehouse because you've already got cream corn. So when you go back out there and you fill the shelves, it fills the shelf. That's what this app does for you at the house. You go around, you scan the UPC codes.

And so then when you do your order, when you make out your grocery list, you put it in the phone, and you say, I need this, this, this, this, and then it scans and goes, okay, you've got the, you still have all this stuff in your home. Why do you need to purchase that? You still have three bottles. You don't need two more. Holy crap. That's what it's doing.

Now they know exactly what's in my home. Other than they know what I buy at the grocery store anyway, right? Now they know exactly. You had two cans of cream corn and now you have one. We know you didn't eat one. What did you do with it? You didn't give it away. Did you do charity?

Oh my gosh. That's exactly. Oh, I've got to call my wife. You're listening to the dude. Jeff Fisher Show. The Blaze Radio Network. This is the Jeff Fisher Show. 888-9033-33 is the phone number.

If you want to participate, you can tweet me too at Jeffie, MRA, or of course, you can thumb up me on Facebook. Jeffrey Fisher. And, of course, you need to not go anywhere at all because Michael Pelka is coming up with Pure O'Pelka immediately following this broadcast. We did something earlier in the week on, well, on the Glenn Beck program, and then we goofed around with a little bit on Patton's 2. So what the heck, let's do it on this broadcast, too. I just, it makes me laugh, the things that are completely, you know, rational sentence that you would say today,

that if you said 20 years ago, people would say, you are crazy and what are you talking about? And I know Reddit did the list, and it's pretty funny when you think about it. And I was trying to think of some other ones. that, you know, like I have a shot of a drone as a screensaver. She said that 20 years ago. Maybe the screensaver was around 20 years ago, maybe.

I mean, I don't remember. I'm trying to think 20 years ago was the screensaver around, I guess, maybe. I don't know. I'm pretty pushing it. But he started thinking about I have Angry Birds on my phone. My contacts are in the cloud.

Love that. we had a couple of caught butt dial so as you're driving around this week just think to yourself some of the things that where we've come and it's good to just kind of think of a little bit about where we've come and some of the wow some of the amazing pieces of technology that we use that are just

we take for granted that are just tremendous I mean we think nothing of driving down the highway at, you know, 65, 70 miles an hour, talking on a cell phone, talking to someone who is, you know, a half a dozen states away, asking them about a news story

that's happening in another state, and as we're talking to them, we're looking down at our tablet, looking up a video of the news story that's happening states away. And we think nothing about that. While someone else is in the car, driving the automobile at 65 miles an hour

on an expressway with hundreds of other cars talking on their phone trying to find out exactly the address of the place we're looking for because we're going to punch it into our GPS in the car and take us there. I mean, that's 20 years ago.

I couldn't find you. Your address wasn't into the GPS. Yeah, what? Uh-huh. I have 2,000 followers. Love that. What is that? Oh, man.

I accidentally liked her photo. Love that. She, uh, I got poked on Facebook yesterday. What? Wait. What?

Yeah. Heck, I got poked again just this morning. I was going to recharge my cigarette. I'm a fan of that. Have it right here, as a matter of fact. The recharge. I haven't taken a hit off that bad boy yet today. I might not after our little smoking

to get together earlier, okay? so just relax um that gas is cheaper than 379 yeah well barely most places it's not that's for sure and a BRB uh gotta go take a selfie l-o-l it was great so crazy anyway it just made me smile the last couple days thinking about the things that you say now that you uh 20 years ago people would look at you like what the heck are you talking about. You have no idea, do you? So you don't. And then we look at this. I got this in the email. This is crazy. This is crazy. I don't even care what the email says. The entire email is printed out. It's two full pages of content. But the first sentence is

overeating is the leading cause of obesity in Texas, right? I'm pretty sure overeating is the leading cause of obesity in every state of the union. Yes, I'd be willing to bet on that. And a way to help that is simple to lose.com. Simple to number two, lose.com. I'm talking about three years with that, too. Absolutely. Amazing.

All right. Is it America? I talked to you a little bit about things that happened 20 years ago. You'd say it today. And it's no problem. If you said it 20 years ago, they'd look at you like, what are you talking about? Let's talk a little bit about a restaurant owner who's under fire

for offering a discount to someone with a fly. and other people are upset and want that place shut down. What? Yeah. I'll tell you about that in a moment. Because first, I want to tell you about the United Kingdom Hotel chain that's under fire for removing Bibles in all their hotel rooms. Why? Because people are mad and it's just you can't have Bibles, you know, in the hotel room drawer because a non-Christian might.

be offended. Why? Why are the non-Christians offended? Don't look. What does it matter to you that there is a Bible in the drawer? Stop it. And I would venture to say their hotel chain in the United Kingdom, pulling your Bibles out of your drawers, that you have more Christian than non-Christian staying at your place. But hey, you're not. But hey, you're You go ahead and pull them. You go ahead and pull it. Because the story that I'm going to tell you about now is happening right here in America. The restaurant owner said, hey, you know what?

I've got a pizza shop. And I've got to try to get some customers. And I've got to figure out what the heck I'm doing. What the heck am I doing? So I know I've got a lot of churches around the area. I will just say, hey, if you come to my place with a lot of, A church bulletin, I'll give you a deal. Yeah, 10% discount with your church bulletin.

Yay. Just stop in. So you didn't. So you didn't do a church bulletin. Now we have atheist accusing the pizza shop of violating their civil rights. No. He's just trying to get people into his business. He's not violating your civil rights at all.

Here's an idea. don't go there go there and pay the extra 10% go there and tell them hey guess what I didn't go to church today but can I have the 10% off I bet you he would say sure here take 10% off

I need the rest of the 90% for my store This is the Jeff Fisher Show Only on the Blaze Radio Network Is the Jeff Fisher Show Coke Zero is good at any time. 888-90-0-303-93 is the phone number if you want to participate. You can tweet me at Jeffie MRA, or you can F-B-B-B-F-B-Facebook me and Jeffrey Fisher. Michael Pelka, Pure Opelka, coming up immediately following this broadcast on the Blaze Radio Network.

Cain and Cup right after that, Chris Salsito, Mike Slater, Joe Pags, don't turn it off. Just stay right where you're at. And I see that you decided to keep wearing that shirt that you have. head on earlier, so just leave it on for the day. Don't mind me telling you to change it. You look fine. We were talking about

we talked a little bit about hotels taking Bibles out, and then I see this new poll that a vast majority believes in God over evolution. So 79% of the people believe in miracles. 75% of people believe in heaven, 74% of people believe in angels. 72% of people believe Jesus is the son of God.

And yet, We want the hotels to take the Bibles out of their drawers. Stop it. Stop it. I'm sick of the minority ruling. I really am. I'm tired of the minority ruling. I get it.

You get your voice. A Bible being in the desk drawer of a hotel does not affect any of your rights. It doesn't mean you sleep less. You don't like it? I know. Here's an idea, too. Oh my gosh. Does this room have a Bible?

Yes. Here, take it. Get it out of my room while I'm here. They'll take it from you, I promise. All right, let's do a Twitter blast. Another Twitter blast. Got a lot of Twitter stuff that we hit over the week. Amazing stuff.

Of course, Obama's approval ratings has hit an all-time low. Confidence in the future of America has collapsed. 40% of respondents approve of the job President Burr. Barack Obama is doing. My question, what are those 40% thinking? Wow. Of course, earlier in the week, we heard Al Sharpton telling us, hey, do not disparage Michael Brown's name. There's a difference between shoplifting and robbery. Yeah. Yeah, there is. Wait, no, wait, wait. And then, of course, Michael Moore in his tweets talking about, hey, these people went shopping and they weren't shot. And strong-armed robbery is what white people call shoplifting.

Michael, stop it. Please. Please. Twitter blast on the Jeff Fisher Show on the Blaze Radio Network. David Gregory, we talked about out at NBC, and we talked about how he treated it pretty well. with the tweets. Well, come to find out. NBC, here's $4 million. Leave quietly.

Husted meet the press anchor, David Gregory, paid $4 million to leave and signed a contract not to speak out against the network. Huh. Those nice tweets seem less nice now, don't they?

Source said Gregory's contract extended into next year, so they said, here's your money. Get out. Be quiet. If you be quiet, we'll give you your money. David did the smart thing and said, no problem, I'll be quiet for the length of my contract,

which I believe it'll be another year. So we'll see how David really feels about NBC and the way he was treated by them in about a year. Until then, NBC was great and the experience was wonderful and all my co-workers were wonderful. Phil Sims,

claims he won't use the name Redskins anymore during the broadcast. Oh, no. Oh, no. The hated, dreaded word, the Redskins. And then Tony Dungey said in a letter, he's not going to, he's trying to. He's going to try to avoid using the Redskins to. Come on Tony. Tony, you are so much smarter than that.

Oh, my gosh. I know you got into trouble with the Michael Sam stuff. I got it, but just stop it, Tony. It's okay. The Washington Redskins. skins, the NFL. They've been there forever. Mike Ditka commented.

Earlier in the week, it's all the political, correct idiots in America. That's all it is, Didka said. It's got nothing to do with anything else. We're going to change something because we can. Hey, listen, I went through it in the 60s too. I mean, come on. Everybody lined up, did this. It's fine to protest.

That's you're right. If you don't like it, protest, you have a right to do that. but to change the name, that's ridiculous. Outstanding. Outstanding. He said, what's all the stink over the Redskins name? It's so much stuff.

It's incredible. We're going to let the liberals of the world run this world. Oh, my gosh. It was said out of pride to the American Indian, even though it was called a Redskin. What are you going to call them? A proud skin? This is so stupid.

it's appalling. And I hope that owner keeps fighting for it and never changes it because the Redskins are part of an American football history. It should never be anything but the Washington Redskins. And that's the way it is. Yes, Mike. Yes. And yes, the liberals are running the world. Partly because of you, Mike Ditka. Partly because of you, my friend. Now, it may have happened differently, but we know that you said no to running for the office of

Senator at Illinois that was won by Barack Obama. Had you said yes to running for that office, A, you may have run up against Barack Obama, and you would have beaten his butt in Illinois. No question.

Or B, he wouldn't have run at all because he knows he couldn't beat you. Now look where you're at, Mike. look where you're at, my friend. Yeah, exactly. And then, of course, I follow Ballarmie Globakers in London on my Twitter account, and I want one of their globes so bad. They are just unbelievably beautiful.

But they tweeted a photo shoot with British adventurer and filmmaker and television presenter Graham David Hughes, as he visited the studio for some photoshoot. shoots at Ballaby Globe maker. And, you know, if you follow me on Twitter, you've seen me post, I retweet some of their stuff and some of their videos on how they make globes, and they're gorgeous.

I mean, I'm such a fan of globes. It's unbelievable. But this guy, Grabs Hughes, has now traveled. He's 34 years old. Okay, it's so cool. He has traveled. He's Guinness Book of World Record holder. He has traveled all over the world without flying. Took him four years.

he visited all 193 well he visited 193 United Nations so all the United Nations four years without flying touched them all

how cool is that I think that is really cool I would love to do that tell me you wouldn't want to do that okay so some of you probably wouldn't want to do that think of all the horror and the strife and what kind of country

doesn't he have Ebola? No, he's fine. And traveling into a country, is it quite the same thing is actually living there? But hey, that's okay. Don't worry about it. I got you, dog.

It's okay. Fine. Okay. I just think it'd be really cool. It'd be cool to travel all, see every country. Took him four years and he didn't fly. Now, I don't mind flying.

I mean, it's kind of a cool little feat that he, you know, didn't fly and it's a cute little addendum to a story. But I really don't mind the flying. I mean, let's just, let's be honest. I mean, after a couple of boat rides, you're like, can't we just get on a plane and go? This is the Jeff Fisher Show on the Blaze Radio Network. This is the Jeff Fisher Show.

888-9033 is the phone number. If you want to try to sneak in, Michael Pelka with Pure El Pelka is coming up next right after this very broadcast on the Blaze Radio Network. You can tweet me at Jeffie MRA. He showered me with jewelry. He would go out for a posh dinner on the 10th of every month to celebrate the day we got together.

Percorded long-distance effort of meeting at the University of Connecticut 2012. She never suspected that he was having second thoughts. But Tucker Blanford, the American,

Wenton faked his own death. In fact, he called the girl, pretending to be his father, telling her, I'm dead. So we can't get married. I know. I best my son, too. Except that he was alive. He was alive because all of a sudden, she called the dad.

I said, I'm sorry. I just want to call you back and let you know that, you know, your son. I love you. My son's not dead. I just saw him another day. What? So if you want to get out of marrying somebody and you want to pretend you're dead,

make sure maybe some other people are in on it before you lie. Because sooner or later it comes back to bite you in the butt. All he ever did was love him. And that was it. And then he lied to me, faking his whole death thing. I didn't think I was that terrible of a person. Well, you are. yes you are you're horrible and he didn't want to marry you and live with yourself for the rest of your life now okay

so sad why do people lie like that just doesn't make any sense you see it's just like the what's her face uh rosemary lexenberg from texas the the prosecutor the district attorney from austin oh my gosh the drunk d a that's Rick perry's involved with I mean the whole time she's just denying it I'm not drunk I'm not drunk yeah yeah you are that's why you pleaded blood guilty in front of a judge you would know you were drunk just hammered out over mine i don't agree with everything that's how the police treated her a little questionable from time to time the videos made me you know question a little bit of that however i believe that rick berry 100% right this whole thing is just go away and the indictment

of the governor is crazy because rosemary oh my gosh she was insane if you get a chance, I'll tweet that whole video package of her out again. I mean, just amazing. When you're drunk and you get pulled over, it's an ugly scene. And she kept denying the whole thing the whole time. Just hammered out of her mind. She was like three times the legal limit. I mean hammered.

Really bad. And you don't just, you know, when someone is three times the legal limit drunk, you don't just, that doesn't just happen. You work up to get that drunk. You know, that means you're going through the day, maybe just under being legally drunk all day, every day. Here, maybe, you know, every night you're maybe, every night you're maybe one time over the legal limit.

Or, you know, the good nights you stay just drunk. Just drunk. But you work up to that two and three times over the legal limit. That just doesn't happen. You beginners out there, you got to work up that. You don't just get, but if you're a beginner and you reach the three times the legal limit,

you're passed out somewhere. You're passed out on somebody's front lawn. And you're thinking, oh, man, I probably shouldn't, I should not drink that much ever again. But, if you're a

middle-aged person, female or male, and you're working, you're out there working every day. You're trying to make a difference. But you're hiding the fact that you're a drunk. You're hiding that fact that you're a drunk. You can get two or three times the legal limit. And after a while, you believe that that three times the legal limit, you could still function. And that's when you get pulled over for DUI. Because you can't. Okay? You're put,

your life and other people's lives at risk. So good reasons for you getting off the road, Rosemary. But the video, I mean, she's just denied it the whole time. Just lie. Just lie. Stop. And this whole lawsuit thing, Rosemary, you should have stepped down. You know you should have stepped down.

Then you got sober. You got straightened out a little bit. And you realized, oh, my gosh, I really need that job. And that's a really good job. And I had quite a bit of power. I was a district attorney. I was a special prosecutor. and I was doing all this good stuff.

I don't want to step down. I'm still a good, I'm still a good person. That may be true. But you're not a good enough person to do that job anymore. That job you've now tainted. Okay, for you, you've now tainted. Move on. But people don't want to do that anymore.

They just don't want to do that anymore. Okay, have a great weekend. You know, just remember, seriously, things that you would have said 20 years ago that you're saying today, people would have looked at you crazy. Remember, one of them would have been Jimmy Carter really isn't the worst president after all.

20 years ago, they would have looked at you like, what the heck are you talking about? You don't have no idea what you're talking about. This is the Blaze Radio Network.
