The U.S. charged Yi Shan Wallya. The co-farm, sure that's exactly how he pronounces his name, the co-founder of Serv Maker Super Micro, with illegally routing servers containing Nvidia's advanced AI chips to China. The U.S. restricts chip exports to the country. Hmm. Now, they restrict that to give an American AI labs the edge. Leo, who resigned from the California Super-based Super Micro Board last week,

was named as a defendant alongside a general manager and a contractor, though Super Micro wasn't charged in the case. The three defendants allegedly orchestrated purchases of the servers by a company in Southeast Asia, which then repackaged them for shipment to China. Prosecutors say Super Micro made 2.5. billion dollars in server sales to this company since 2024. Last spring alone, $510 million worth of those servers were restricted chips that were sent to China. The scheme allegedly involved tricking super micro-auditors and the U.S. government inspector into believing the company

had bought the hardware for itself. Prosecutors said that at one point, they were using a hair dryer to transfer the serial number stickers from real servers to dummy servers to show inspectors. That's when you know you got a good deal when you've got the boss down there using a hairdryer to move the stickers on dummy stickers. Just incredible. Now, I know that, you know, we have the chip smuggling crackdown. The Trump administration actually loosened export restrictions on some of NVIDIA's advanced chips involved in the case.

Really, really strange. But they weren't to be going to China before President went ahead and loosened some of those export restrictions. So I just love the story only because I got to see the CEO down there with his hair dryer moving stickers. If it was worth $2.5 billion, you bet. I'm down there using that hair dryer. Welcome.

Welcome to Chewing the Fat 5 Plus. Feels good to have all the Fennortners back in order, and everything is working as it should. So thank you for coming along for the ride today on Chewing the Fat Fat 5 Plus. The first segment, and actually the first story, the first three or four stories are all about crime that's going on around the world.

Swiss food giant Nestle. says that 12 tons, 413,793 candy bars, Kit Kat candy bars were stolen. I had nothing to do with it. I love Kit Kat bars, but I had nothing to do with it. After it was leaving its production site in Italy on its way to Poland, the company, based in Switzerland, said in a statement, the vehicle and its load are still nowhere to be found.

The shipment of crunchy bars made of waffles covered with chocolate. Yeah. They disappeared while they were en route. And we don't know what happened to them. We're still on the hunt. It will not affect sales. It will not affect shortages. They will not have shortages.

The company said, don't worry about it. We're good. We've got plenty to make sure that everybody has enough Kit Kat bars. And I'm sure that some stores are going to have extra Kit Kat bars because if you were selling those damn hot Kit Kat bars to make extra money that you bought on the cheap, they're going to find you, okay? Don't scan them.

They said you could scan them, and it will show that these are the ones that are stolen because they've got tracking devices with the UPC numbers. But I will say that if I'm a store owner and I can buy KitKat bars at, half price, then I'm going to go ahead and just cover up that UPC code. And then when they don't scan, I'll just charge you the price for them. I'm not telling you what you should do.

And I'm not saying that's what's happening. I'm just saying if I were a store owner, I would definitely just get a hold of Kit Kat right away and let them know that someone tried to sell me a cheap Kit Kat bar. And I would not have it. That's why I'm calling you. So we'll see if we could find out what happened to the shipment of Kit Kat bars. Then in the United States of America, federal agents with U.S. Customs and Border Protection

uncovered more than $17 million in suspected methamphetamine hidden inside a shipment of blackberries at South Texas Border Crossing. Yes, the seizure took place last week at the Far International Bridge Cargo Facility, after a tractor trailer arriving from a Rhinosa, Mexico, beautiful this time of year, was selected for a secondary inspection with advanced imaging equipment. During the inspection, officers located 862 packages of suspected meth concealed within the produce, totaling of about 1,984 pounds. Authorities estimate the drug street value, yeah, it's $17.7 million.

I always estimate that stuff. higher than it probably is, maybe even lower. So the port director said that this is good stuff. The bus demonstrates CBPs continued use of technology and resources to stop drug trafficking and safeguard communities. So officials seize both the narcotics and the vehicle, and Homeland Security investigation has launched a criminal probe into the case. The truck driver, I'm just delivering blackberries, is all I'm doing.

I had no idea that that meth was on this truck. Wow. And that makes you wonder how much is getting through. Doesn't it? It does make one wonder how much is getting through. Then in Missouri, we have fentanyl found in Barbie dolls at a discount store in Missouri. Police say fentanyl was discovered inside Barbier doll packages. All those people should be dead. According to the experts, all those people should be dead in that store.

But they're not. Want to know why? Because it's not true. That's why the whole thing of fentanyl, I touched fentanyl and I died. No, stop it. So the Barbie doll packages were sold at a discount story in Independence, Missouri. And the Independence Missouri Department was alerted on police department was alerted this weekend by a cargo, Largo security, love them, after a suspicious powder was found inside one of the doll packages.

tests later confirmed the substance was fentanyl. Authorities worked with the store and determined that five Barbie doll packages containing the drug had been sold, all of which were recovered within hours. Were they? Police emphasized they do not believe other stores have contaminated. Dow's and no injuries have been reported in connection with the incident. What makes one wonder why the Barbie dolls had fentanyl in them? how the fentanyl was in the packages,

who was purchasing the Barbies that had the fentanyl in it? Did they want? Were they purchasing the Barbies specifically because those were the ones that had fentanyl or they just didn't know? So those are questions that probably investigators will ask and we'll see what comes of that. But remember, you know, they say that one little drop of fentanyl can kill all these people.

and that's apparently not true because this was a prime example of five packages or multiple packages of Barbie dolls with fentanyl in them and it doesn't they didn't say anything in the story

about people dropping over dead so we'll see what happens with that and now they're saying and we've talked about this before I think as we've joked around about movies and cocaine sharks

will be the next movies. Well, I was reading a story that talked about cocaine-fueled sharks are on the prowl in the Caribbean. Oh. Now, scientists aren't blaming the United States for blowing up drug boats and having cocaine in the ocean whatsoever.

They're saying that they're blaming partying tourists. Yes, yes, partying tourists. The Brazilian scientists discovered traces of the cocaine caffeine and painkillers in the sharks swimming in the waters around the Bahamas. These blowfish aren't getting hooked on purpose. See what they did there? It's the fallout from an uptick in marine pollutants.

Per a jaw calliptic study. Wow. So that's called per a jawcliptic study published in the journal Environmental Pollution. Love that. pharmaceuticals and illicit drugs are increasingly recognized as contaminants of emerging concern in marine environments particularly in areas undergoing rapid urbanization and tourism-driven development. Okay. So there's too many people doing too many drugs and the water is being, they aren't being filtered out.

It's getting into the ocean and now it's getting into all the marine life. and the marine life is starting to get hooked on drugs. 28 sharks spanning three species tested positive for drugs, the most common of which was caffeine. This was followed by acetamidam and diclofenic. D-C-L-O-F-N-A-C. D-C-L-O-F-N-A-C. That's exactly what I said.

Di-Clofenac, right? Diclofenac. Okay. Appreciate you showing up today. Those are just active ingredients in the popular painkillers, Tylenol, and Voltaren. So, okay. Two of the animals tested positive for cocaine, which researchers are attributed to them chomping on drug packets that fell into the water. Yeah, so these are the narcos that are throwing drug packets in the water,

and the sharks are eating them, or at least chomping on them. And they bite things to investigate and end up being. exposed. Yeah, so we're close to a cocaine shark movie. That should already be in the works and already happening because, yeah, they found them in Brazil, was the original story. So, man, there's so much, so many pollutants, so many pollutants in the water that can't help but affect these animals. Right? Right. Well, that's, of course, why we study and publish things in the journal Environmental Pollution. Quite a bit of pig news in the news today. I know that's weird. Quite a bit of pig news.

First, we have the world's first lab grown esophagus, which restores pigs' ability to swallow. Scientists grew the working esophagus using donor tissue and stem cells, then transplanted it into pigs. The new esophagus worked like the real one, ta-da, and grew with the pigs, offering hope for human babies, born with the esophageal defects, who could. currently face complex surgeries. Yeah, if you are born or have something wrong with your esophagus, I was said the word fine, and then I got into a scophagal and a scoffigil. It's born with a scoffigil defects who currently face complex surgeries. Yeah. So, I mean, it's something with the esophagus. But you can grow one. And we can just take it from the pig. And then we're fine.

No problem. Then we have eye drops derived in part from pig semen that kill cancer cells and slow tumor growth in mice with retinoblastoma. Okay. I mean, I don't care what kind of retinoblastoma you have, which apparently this is a rare childhood cancer, typically develops in humans before the age of five. All I have to do is drop some eye drops into your eye made with pig semen and you kill it. Okay, I'm in. Where are my gloves? Come on, heat.

Winter is hard, but your groceries don't have to be. This winter, stay warm. Tap the banner to order your groceries online at voila.ca. Enjoy in-store prices without leaving your home. You'll find the same regular prices online as in-store. Many promotions are available both in-store and online, though some may vary. And then from the USDA, animal and plant health inspection services, they want you to wash your boots before entering a pig pen.

I'll repeat that. They want you to wash your boots before entering a pig pen. Apparently, that's one of many biosecurity measures to reduce the risk of deadly diseases like African swine fever. Single slip can make a life or death. difference to the herd. Now this is ASF action week. Oh, it is the African Swine Fever action week. So we get to stay up to date with all the latest guidelines. We will. My gosh, I didn't realize that it was the action week. So we have to get on that. This is dated. Oh,

we missed it. This is dated March 16. So it was like last week. That was African Swine Fever Action Week. Can we still take action? Can we still take action? I'm guessing you probably can. Just remember that you need to wash your boots before you enter the Big Pen. That's all you need to remember, okay? So let me get this straight. The company that just inked to deal with Disney, epic games, they wanted to create games and entertainment universe with the company's brands, including Star Wars, Marvel, Pixar, Disney. Disney invested $1.5 billion in Epic Games for a minority stake in the company. So the newly minted Disney chief executive, Josh Diomaro, managed the collaboration with Epic Games in his previous role as Parks Chief to create a Disney World within the popular Fortnite game.

Now, Fortnite just laid off like a thousand people and said that they needed to cut costs by $500 million. $1,000. Chief Executive Tim Sweeney announced the cuts and said, it's nothing to do with AI. He pointed, he says, the lack of Fortnite engagement last year. Oh,

okay, sure, we're one of the most popular games in the world. We've had challenges delivering consistent Fortnite magic with every season. Oh, okay. So you're going to cut costs by 500 million, and you're going to lay off 1,000 people, and by

layoff, I mean fire. And yet, uh, who got all the money for the Disney investment? I'm just asking, that's all. I was just not, I'm not accusing anybody of anything at all. And I don't have any idea, you know, what I'm talking about. I just wondered what happened to all the money. That's all. I just wondered what happened to all the money. And I know we have, uh, you know, speaking of games, uh, I see where a PS5, uh, they are raising their prices. That's special, isn't it? Yeah, Sony, thank you. Yeah, I know you have pressures in the global economic landscape,

but just know that as of April 2nd, today is the 30th. So you've got a couple days before the second to get your PS5s because they're going to go up in price. The disc edition is going to go up 100. The digital edition is going to go up 100. and the PS5 Pro is going to go up $150 on April 2nd. So good luck. And look, everybody's raising their prices.

I know, no problem. I saw a thing. What did I do with it? I must have thrown away. There's a list of the price hikes from Netflix since they first began. And all the price hikes are under inflation. So, okay, all right, they're below the inflation. I got adjusted for inflation price.

Still a lot of money coming out of my pocket. In fact, this weekend, I was watching something on Netflix, not dinosaurs, but you should listen to our podcast, a Packground Leash podcast. If you're a Blaze TV subscriber, we cover the dinosaurs episodes on Netflix. But my wife, we were watching some of the Netflix, and my wife said, if we were watching some of the Netflix, and my wife said, if Netflix, if we cancel Netflix, well, then we can get rid of the commercials on Prime. And I thought, okay, so she's now considering Netflix getting too pricey. And I love Netflix, so I don't want to see it go.

But, you know, the camel is, the back is getting quite heavy on the camel. And a lot of these platforms are like, well, do we really, really need it? And the answer for me is yes, we do. I mean, we get the Apple TV. I get that through their phone carrier for free. For free. I just have to pay, you know, $8 million a month for my phones. That's all.

And then I get Apple TV. It's like the new friends and neighbors season begins this week, which I'm looking forward to with John Hamm. So, you know, that's on Apple TV. I watched Alex Cross on Prime with commercials, by the way. It drives me insane. but, you know, that's the line I'm not crossing. I'm not going to pay.

I'm not going to do it. No, I will not go to pay for no commercials on Prime before something else happens. I'm not going to do it. No. And then, you know, there's other shows Solma that I'm watching. There's many shows have gotten canceled. They've re-uped many shows.

We can get to that at some point this week, the new shows. And they've got the new Netflix roast. coming up, which I found fascinating. So I guess what they're going to do is Kevin Hart is going to take the hot seat. So they're going to have a live roast for Kevin Hart. It's hosted by Shane Gillis. It's going to air Sunday, May 10th. Closing out the Netflix is a joke fest.

And like the Tom Brady event back in 2024, the roast will be filmed at the Kia Forum in Los Angeles. So we were prepared for that And we should have some fun With the Kevin Hart roast on Netflix in May That might actually That might actually be worth a watch to watch it Now if you can't catch it live

So I appreciate you all follow me on that. Now, this is something that is not dead, but it looks like it's moving pretty good. The Connecticut Sun is moving. Yeah. So the Mohegan Sun has sold the Connecticut Sun for $300 million. And the franchise, the WNBA franchise, is moving to Houston.

We're out of here. Okay. Well, I don't know. For 300 million for the Connecticut Sun, that seems like an awful lot of money for that. So after the 2026 season, this season, they're moving to Houston. So I don't know if they're going to be the Houston son or not,

but they are getting the heck out of there. And I know that I remember reading some stories where, you know, they were looking to get some money from people in Boston. I can't believe. This is surprising to me that Boston, I mean, they got the Celtics, you know, the Men's League. But I'm surprised that no one in Boston wants to keep the Connecticut son, you know, there.

keep it up there in Massachusetts and Connecticut. It just seems like that would be the thing that they would do. But I guess not. Nope. And I mean, Connecticut's hurting, right? Because the New York Islanders just announced that their H.L team, the Bridgeport Islanders, love them, relocating to Canada. So the people in Connecticut are feeling a little bit hurt, a little bit hurt.

No WNBA? No minor league hockey. What will they do? Okay. Who died today? Who died today? Man, so many people have died since last we spoke. We'll get to as many as we can today.

And then we'll get to a few more as the week progresses. Key Charlie Kirk mentor, Jeff Webb, dies. He died from a freak pickleball accident. He was a dear friend to Charlie. He died at the age of 76. two weeks after suffering a serious head injury while he fell playing pickleball. So, I mean, I guess he was also the father of modern cheerleading. So congratulations.

I guess he went into, he was on life support for two weeks after hitting his head during a pickleball game. And he was the mentor to Charlie Kirk. Are we, when do we realize, when do we say that this was Erica's fault? When do we say that? When do we say that? Do we say that at all? No? Okay.

I was just wondering if she's trying to, you know, knock off all of Charlie's people. But, uh, so rest in peace to Texas businessman Jeff Webb, uh, dead at the age of 76. Then we have Robert Mueller. Robert Mueller, uh, dead, former FBI director at the age of 81. And Trump blasted him. We talked about this on Pat Gray on leased. You, of course, sent God. can catch me every day on Pat Gray on Leashed a Monday through Friday where I do a fat five

Rest and peace to former, I got to Trump just crushed Robert Mueller in his post saying,

He was happy that he was dead. You know, come on. I know, you know, we can say that we don't like people, but we don't necessarily have to be, you know, we don't have to be mean about it. Robert Mueller died and Trump said, good, I'm glad he's dead. He can no longer hurt innocent people. So I guess,

Rest in peace to Robert Mueller, dead at the age of 81. Then we have Valerie Perrine. I know. Valerie Perrine, Oscar nominee, Superman actress, dead at the age of 82. Apparently, she was struggling with Parkinson's disease. That's one of the worst diseases on the planet. I guess any disease that we talk about here on this show is terrible. But Parkinson's, I've seen the struggles of people with Parkinson's up close and personal.

And it is no fun. And I don't, I personally don't recommend it for anyone. So if you can avoid getting Parkinson's, I would. Rest and peace to Valerie Perrine, dead at the age of 82. Then we have James Tolkien. James Tolkien. Here's another, oh yeah, that guy. When you see him, he's an actor, he played in Back to the Future, Top Gun.

He's been in a bunch of movies. he is definitely, oh yeah, that guy, James Tolkien, dead at the age of 94. Then the infamous abortion doctor, the serial killer, Kermit Gossnell, died in prison. That's right, he is finally dead at the age of 85. Kermit Gossnell, abortion doctor. I mean, this guy killed thousands of people, if anybody. deserved a good I'm glad he's dead

he could no longer hurt innocent people post from Donald Trump Kermit Baron Gossnell was the guy dead from he was in prison a good place for him to be

has passed away at the age of 85 Mr. Only fans himself a little He's the billionaire that from OnlyFans, you know, the platform that sells, you know, you can do anything. They keep calling it an erotic thing, but you could do that. You could do many things on OnlyFans. You don't have to just do porn, although many people do.

Anyway, Lina has died at the age of 43. I believe that's how he pronounced his name, Leonid, L-E-O-N-I-D-Ratavinsky. Apparently he had cancer and was suffering really bad, very sad, passed away at the age of 43. I mean, the guy was, you know, a genius. After running online porn ventures ever since he was a teenager, Radivinsky in 2018, bought a majority stake in the British site OnlyFans, and that's when I became one of the UK top startups, and it became the only fans that it is today. so that's because of him.

But he has now left this planet. Leonhardo Radovinsky, dead at the age of 43. All right, let's get out of here. I'll leave you with a joke of the day. In fact, my kids gave me a calendar of dad jokes for Christmas. And I haven't even gone through it yet. Every day is a dad joke in this calendar. Pretty cool.

I mean, we've got all of January, which I didn't do. Got darn near all of March when February. Didn't do any of February. And darn near all of March is almost over. Today is the 30th of March. So let's take a look at the 30th of March dad joke in my dad joke calendar. I was going to try an all almond diet, but that's just nuts. Yesterday is the 29th, March 29th.

Oh, rest in peace to my brother. as well, who passed away last year. March 29th is his birthday. So every time I think of him, of course, every March 29th. So happy birthday to my brother. Who should be in Who died today? But he died a year ago, so he can't be in who died today. Yesterday, the owner of a tuxedo store kept hovering over me when I was browsing.

So I asked him to leave me alone. He said, fine. Suit yourself. Just think I've got a whole year of these. A whole year of these. On Saturday, my doctor told me I'm going deaf. The news was hard for me to hear. All right, that's enough of that.
