Not just America but the world I just see a story Across my feed That talks about how schools Are removing analog clocks Because teenagers Can't tell time

So they are removing These analog clocks In their halls because the students struggle to tell time, and teachers say digital clocks reduce stress. Well, wouldn't it be easier to put an analog clock, I don't know, and a digital clock side by side? So the students would be able to tell,

oh, look, the digital clock says this time, the analog clock says that time, that's what it looks like when it's that time. Or the teacher could, maybe not even put the digital clock up, but use the analog clock and teach them how to read a clock. It just seems, isn't that what teachers are supposed to do? I know that your class is whatever math, you know, your arithmetic writing and reading,

but maybe a side teaching point could be the clock. I know, it's just me, but it's just dumbing down of America. I don't understand. On top of which, I think I would throw my children out of the house. Dad, we can't read an analog clock. Get out. No, I wouldn't do that.

I wouldn't. No, I don't want to shoot them. But get out. Welcome. Welcome to chewing the fat. So now we have tuna being recalled. Okay. The FDA has announced a recall of canned tuna

products sold at multiple major retailers. Walmart, Trader Joe's, Kroger, Costco. According to the alert, Tri-Union Seafoods is voluntarily, recalling some canned tuna products after learning about a manufacturing defect involving the easy open pull tab lid that may compromise the cans seal and cause it to leak over time or worse. be contaminated with Cluster Diem buttoleum, a potentially fatal form of food. Right. So customers are warned,

do not use the effective products even if they don't look or smell spoiled. Okay. The can tuna products were sold under the Genova Van Camps, H-E-B, and Trader Joe's brand names and were distributed to the retail stores in, well, almost every state.

The list is forever long. It takes longer to tell you the states that it wasn't sold in. So just be on the lookout for those tuna cans. So far, apparently no illnesses have been reported. But, pooh, man, if you feel sick, seek immediate medical attention. Right. Now, you should, if you have any of the recalled tuna, you should be throwing it away or returning it for a full refund.

Or you can contact. Try a Union Seafood. Well, make sure you have your receipt. If you're going to burn it, make sure you have your receipt because you're on a bit. I don't even know if you need a receipt. You just go back into the store and say, I bought two cans of tuna. I need a replacement.

But you could contact Tri-Union Seafoods for what they call a retrieval kit. I don't know what that is. And a replacement product coupon. So they'll send you a retrieval kit. maybe that's just a box with a return address on it? I don't know. And, you know, then they'll give you a coupon for, you know,

some new product. Ain't nobody got time for that? But you do have time for that if you have tuna. You know, I, we have tuna in our pantry all the time. My, my wife and my daughter love it. I am not a huge tuna fan, but every so often I feel like, you know, a tuna fish sandwich sounds really good. And a toasted tuna fish sandwich is so good.

And I'm not a big, you know, overdue-it mayo kind of guy. So I wanted this kind of, you know, just have a touch of mayo with my tuna on a toasted piece of bread. Awesome. But I noticed the last time I went to make a tuna fish sandwich, I grabbed the can off the shelf. And I haven't done it in a long time. I mean, they, listen, the females do the shopping for that. Okay, I don't. And they're in the pantry.

I see them on the shelf. But I grab a can. And I'm like, this is a real tuna fish can? It's so much smaller now. I hadn't realized. They're like five ounces. Holy cow. I mean, I don't remember how big they were when I was, you know, a tuna fish

aficionado. But I feel like was that, I mean, if the five ounces feels small, then we're looking at what, seven or eight ounces in the past? I mean, honestly, I don't know. So I just, it's really was strange to me. And on top of that, that means less tunis. Tuna fish that I'm having on my toasted tuna fish sandwich, which was very disappointing.

Very disappointing. So then, you know, then now you're thinking about, well, do I need to open a second can? Big tuna's on me. You know, so, okay, it's all. I'm just saying, be careful. If you have tuna fish in your pantry, a lot of it's been recalled.

Especially if you have the tuna fish with the easy open pull tab lib. Now, that's the, that's the problem. That's what's causing the problem. So just either throw it away or send it back with the retrieval kit. You know, speaking of food, I see where McDonald's, I mean, all these companies are getting their, you know, their quarterly reports from last year and letting us know what their earnings are. McDonald's said that the last quarter in the U.S.,

same store sales were down 1.4% as diners spent less per visit but they're thought of that instead of maybe it's because we're charging way too much for our food no, that's because of the E. coli outbreak that they had I didn't even remember that they had the E. coli outbreak at McDonald's but okay, if you want to use that for your excuse,

you go ahead, but they don't really care about the U.S. anyway. Yeah, we were down one. But sales were up in the Middle East, Japan, and China. So you guys were not buying as much as you normally do in America? Ah. Oh, well. All right, so we'll just stick with food.

Wendy's is supposed to be launching their thin mince frosty. Did they, is that dropped? Is that ready to go supposed to happen this month? And I know the Girl Scout cookies are at every, stores doors now. So do we have the Wendy's thin mint frosty yet?

I may have to look on my Wendy's app. We need to we should go get a frosty man. They've got thin mint frosties and we'd really like to tear that up. So the thin mint

frosty, like I want to I love the chocolate frosty. I do. And I haven't tried the caramel frosty yet and I like caramel but when I want a frosty I want a chocolate frosty okay and I know everybody oh it's so good when you dip your fries in it that's what hind ketchup is for okay well I'm not wasting my frosty I'm a French fries okay so I get it I've tried it and you know it's okay I'm not I'm not opposed to anything with ice cream on it okay let's be clear about that but

I'd rather have Heinz ketchup on my fries. But if I can get a thin mint frosty, we might be pulling through the old Wendy's drive-through today. And I had to laugh about Buffalo Wild Wings as well. You know, they had a deal that if the Super Bowl, I'm sorry, the big game, went into overtime, then they would give away free wings. So if the football game went into overtime,

doesn't matter who won, you know, who lost, but if the game itself went into overtime, then everyone in the U.S. could redeem six free, boneless or traditional wings at Buffalo Wild Wings on Monday, February 24th, from 2 to 5 p.m. And it was available, dine in or takeout,

and that was a big deal for them. They're thankful. I mean, that's a good bit. as long as the game doesn't go into overtime. Which it didn't. And so we're good. They don't have to give away

these six swings because the game did not go into overtime. And they were able to say, we were going to do it. We were going to do it, man. We were ready to go. You know how many millions of wings? Millions of wings that would have been

for Buffalo Wild Wings? I mean, they gave away 2.5 million wings last year. So, because the chiefs and the 49ers went into overtime. So they gave away 2.5 million wings last year. And they did it again. So, I mean, they lost last year giving away all those wings. But I'm sure that it was, you know, if you go to Buffalo Wild Wings and get six wings, you're getting other items as well.

So I'm sure it worked out well for them. Yeah, they gave you 2.6 million wings, but we sold a lot more than we would have. Say so, Jeff, I did the math. If we say out of 350 million people in the U.S., whatever, they redeemed those six. That's 2.1 billion wings. That's if every person redeems it,

which, you know, obviously 350 million people, you know, many of those aren't adults or children. Right. You know, but still, okay, so if every person in the U.S., 350 million,

redeemed their six wings, it would be... 2.1 billion. Yeah. I'm sure that the chief marketing officer at Buffalo Wild Wings would not be a fan of that. With AmX Platinum,

$400 in annual credits for traveling, dining means you not only satisfy your travel bug, but your taste buds too. That's the powerful backing of Amex. Conditions apply. You know, I would love to talk to Bill Murray. I've always wanted to meet Bill Murray and talk to him. And I know that he has an 800 number that you call and he sometimes listens to the messages and gets back with people. He did the Super Bowl ad this year for Yahoo. and he held up a piece of paper that had Bill himself at Yahoo.com for the email address. And I want to email him because, but then you're going to end up getting spammed from Yahoo. And I don't know that Bill actually sees this email address.

I think this was, you know, the commercial bit for, you know, Bill himself at Yahoo.com. you know so I doubt that maybe they send him some do people at Yahoo send him a list of emails to respond to and then you know it looks like he's actually going through the emails uh-huh okay but I do know that it's been reported from numerous people that he's had an 800 number

that he that's what he got tight said he got tired of answering the phone at home and having to go through a chit-chat about what they wanted to call for. So he just, he got rid of all his phones and he got the 800 number. And if you want to get a hold of Bill Murray, you call the 800 number. And then he listens to the messages and at his leisure and calls you back if he wants you to call you back. Because they talked about, I remember the one producer said he called like three or four times,

the 800 left messages on the 800 number and then ended up running into one of his attorney. and said, hey, I'm trying to get a hold of him to do this movie, and he hasn't returned my call, so he got to him through his attorney. So there are other ways to contact Bill. He's just not telling you what that is. For the lowly people of chewing the fat, they have a call the 800.

Now, I believe I've left a message on that 800 number before, but I was looking through my past emails and I couldn't find the 800 number. Well, then I found a number listed that's supposed to be Bill Murray's 800 number. So I'm going to call it and see if it's Bill Murray's 800 number. Come on. Problem gamblers, hotline. I'm sorry.

I have the wrong number. Thank you. That's okay. I don't have a problem gambling yet with my life, so it's okay. Yeah, that's not Bill Murray's phone number. That's very disappointing. Although maybe Bill had it changed. This could have been Bill's number before,

and now he just he sold it to the damn gamblers problem gamblers help line. Damn it. Bill! Email me chewing the fat at the blaze.com. Chewing the fat at the blaze.com. I'll see your email come through, bill himself from bill himself at yahoo.com. Just, you know, email chewing the fat at the blaze.com. All right, we're going to try one more time.

All right, so this number was the problem gambler's hotline issue. But I was thinking, I wonder if the number is 1-800 number. So, actual number, 1-800-N-U-M-B-E-R-R. 1-800-number. We have maybe 2-Rs, 2-Ns. 1-800-N-U-M-B-E-R-R. I'll see what this. 1-800 number is.

Thank you for calling dial-800. Your call may be recorded for quality assurance. All right. Thanks, Dow. Hang. All right, so let's try 1-800 number with two ends. 1-800 N-N-N-U-M-B-E-R. Let's just go through every possible number that it could be. N-N-U-M-B-E-R. Please listen carefully as our menu options may have changed.

Calls are recorded for quality assurance. This is not Bill Murray, I'll tell you that. in your household 60 years of age or older press one for yes if you or someone in your household is Bill Murray does not need to know that for me to talk to him hang up right now that ticks me up Bill why are you asking me all those questions for me

By the way, if you subscribe to Two in the Fat. So you're welcome. All right, let's go to the break room. I need something cold to drink desperately.

You know, in the great state of Connecticut, well, you know, one of the states here in the United States, Connecticut. A state senator of this Martin Loonie has introduced a bill requiring movie theaters to disclose both the start times of trailers and the actual start times of films. The initiative aims to provide transparency for moviegoers, allowing them to choose whether to arrive early for previews or just in time for the feature presentation. While some theater operators express concerns

about potential revenue loss from their pre-show advertisements, yeah, they have all kinds of local ads that they're selling on there, plus they have the other AMC network trivia BS and whatever film, whatever company you're going to see. They have their own little trivia people. They're giving you a little movie insiders. It's kind of so cute.

And then we get to watch the previews. And it's usually, I would say, and I think what's going to happen is they will just say, you know, it's in some time and a 15-minute window. I would tell you, the movie starts at 1.30. We're rolling lights out at 145. And so get there between then and now. You're going to want to get in your seat.

You want to be quiet. You don't want to, you know what? As a matter of fact, if you're not there early, we're shutting the door. The movie starts. We'll let you know. Yep, the preview start at 130. The movie will actually begin at 145. But if you're not in the studio by 144, you're out.

Have a nice day. There we go. How about that? How does that work for you, state senator? So we'll see if that holds any weight anywhere Because it's usually about 15 minutes anyway, somewhere in there, between 10 and 15 minutes. And I like seeing the previews, you know, the new trailers for movies.

So, you know, sometimes the little trivia stuff is a little annoying, but you get yourself settled in and, you know. And the good thing is, is that there's a thing called, what's it called again? Oh, yeah, streaming. And I can watch it at my home, which I really really, care about it. I don't have to go to the stupid theater. Did you see where Netflix is doing this new movie

called The Electric State? I had not seen this and it's going to be released I think next month. So they're close to having it ready to go. So it's going to be the most ambitious

and highly anticipated films of the year. Is it going to be that? I feel like this was written by Netflix. Okay. But it has a budget of $320 million

making it the most expensive project ever produced by Netflix. Wow. And they've got a couple people from Marvel Cinematic Universe working on it. The cast, such as Millie Bobby Brown, Chris Pratt.

Wow. Giancarlo Esposito, Brian Cox, Stanley Tucci. Oh, some big names. It's a combination of talent, both front and behind the camera, so it will be electric state, is what it's called on Netflix, released next, they claim March 14th, so almost a month.

A couple days, it's February 12th, for those of you listening live, so almost a month. Okay. The picture, the promo picture of the electric state looks like one of the robots that we have here Mercury Studios. So I'm not real sure. It's got wires and hanging.

Okay, it's similar. All right, but it looks, if you ever seen the robots that we have in the at Atrium here at Mercury Studios, the two robots that were made for a man in the moon in Utah that we used up on the stage side by side, that were supposed to be used more than they were.

And then they just showed up and they were like, yeah, we're not going to use them. Glenn was like, yeah, we're, you know what, I had this idea. I don't like it. So just put them on each side of the stage and we're not going to use them. Anyway, so there have been here in the H&M Mercury Studios for forever. What seems like forever.

But that's what it looks like, the electric state. It looks like one of those giant robots with wires hanging off of it. So will it be good? You bet. You bet. I'm looking forward to it. Okay, so according to IMDB, the electric state. and also mentions Woody Harrelson being in this movie.

An orphaned teenager traverses the American West with a sweet but mysterious robot and an eccentric drifter in search of her younger brother. I mean, if that doesn't make you want to watch, I don't know what will. All right, so I was just informed that there's an app and a website called runp.com. R-U-N-P-E-E-com.

Now, what they've done with this app and this website is to, they want to tell you the best time to run and pee during a movie without missing the best scenes. Now, here's a little thought for me, okay? Hold it! Watch the movie! If you have to run to the bathroom and get up and start wandering,

and cutting in front of people and getting out of there. You know what? Wait until it comes on streaming and then you can watch it at home and then you can pause it at your leisure. You can go to the bathroom. You can get yourself a snack and come back, sit down, finish the movie.

We've all done that. I got it. But if you're going to a movie theater, hold it! It's not that difficult, all right? I mean, I know I'm probably a stranger to that thought because people just, oh, I got to go to the bathroom.

I mean, I have, I, I guess I'm like a camel. Because if I sit down to do a radio show, to do a television show, to watch a movie, I'm not going to pee. I'm just not going to pee. I'm not going to pee. I'm sorry.

I will do what I asked you to do. Hold it! It's not that difficult. Now I realize that some people have medical conditions and some people have other conditions that they have to deal with, I get it. And I don't want to deprive you of your movie going. Just don't be cutting in front of me

every time you got to go to the bathroom. When I went to, there was a lady in the row in front of us. And the way they haven't staggered out now, they're not blocking your view, you know, because they have, you're on, you know, it's on an angle and you're going upstairs so the seats are, you know, you're not walking in front of everybody.

Well, you are in the same row. they're in the same row with you, but not other rows. Anyway, but it's distracting. You know, I was at the theater and this lady just kept getting up and going, getting up and going. I mean, I felt like, stop it. You're driving me insane.

So here's the deal for run p.com. Can we test it out real quick with your knowledge of Gladiator 2? You ready? Would you agree with these times? I will say this right now. All right. I disagree. Because I went to see Gladiator 2 in the theater.

And you know what I did? You held it. I held it. No, I agree. No, it was amazing. Okay, so at 15 minutes in, you just see bodies on the beach, so you have a four-minute window. All right? Then 48 minutes.

Yeah, well, they're just showing the bodies and they're rounding it up before they get back on the ship to go back to Italy, back to Rome. Yeah, okay. Another one's at 48 minutes in. It's about a three-minute window. It says that there's a few months. minor plot points but nothing that can't be described. A slave says, when I was told of this place, I never would imagine this state.

Oh yeah, that was they're trying to throw that back into the first Gladiator with I did not know man could build this thing. Yeah, I got it. The last one, is it. Cacius says, I would willingly give my life for Rome. No action, only small character moment. Yeah. So that's basically what it is.

Yeah, but if you're at a movie theater, are you, Are you getting up and going, getting up from where you're sitting in the movie theater, walking all the way to the bathroom and then walking all the way back in a three minute time frame? I don't think so. It's cool. I don't think so. So here's Jeff Fisher's Two in the Fat, RunP.com. Hold it. This episode is brought to you by Peloton.

Ways to tell Donald Trump is president of the the United States of America.

One way is, well, what if the CEO of Anheiser-Bush said, you know what, we need to, we need to change the term for U.S. made beers from domestic to American. Yeah, that would be

a way to tell that Donald Trump is president of the United States now. Yeah, that would work. When Google, their calendar drops Black History Month, Holocaust Remembrance Day and so many more listings because, huh, we began listing only public holidays and national observances,

not cultural and historical events. Oh, oh, okay. That would just be a way for me to know that, hey, you know who's president? Donald Trump. I mean, look at AP. AP's in trouble with the White House because they won't bend the knee on the Gulf of Mexico. uh they aren't it's golf of mexico or we're not going to call it golf of america oh okay uh no problem well then you just won't have access to the white house that's fine uh you know what

you be you boo but uh or ap but uh you just you won't have access to the white house okay uh no problem. I mean, Google even, Google's like, yeah, we'll call it the Gulf of Gulf of America. It's fine. They changed it. It's in the paperwork now. We're fine. We're doing that and it has nothing to do with anything other than that's what they call it now. Right? I mean, we're not, yeah, we're not doing that because of Donald Trump. Uh-huh. That's right. He is president, isn't it? Yes, yeah. Maybe that is why. Okay. All right. We want access and don't want him coming after us. Yep, okay, yep, it's Gulf of America.

And you know what, those silly, those silly remembrances that we did, man, that was just dumb of us, wasn't it? You know, on Monday we had this guy, Adam Manzano, and it's the story that I read on Monday said, Adam, A-D-A-N, of course it's Adam. Of course it's a typo. But anyway, and that story said that he was 28 and he was 27.

So I'm not quite sure what happened there. Anyway, I mean, he's still dead, obviously. It didn't really matter whether he was 27 or 28. He was found in his hotel room and he was drugged before he was found dead in his New Orleans hotel room. And apparently there's a previous victim's out there of the suspect that, He said, yes, she left me for dead too. Wow. Oh, okay.

Well, so Adam was reported for Telemundo. I'm not, I guess he got lured into the hotel room by the so-called Bourbon Street hustler. Lured into the hotel room by the so-called Bourbon Street hustler. I know. Hey. Aren't you that reporter from Telemundo? Oh, yeah. I'll call you Adam or whatever you want.

just come on in. Yeah, that's a big issue. So this Dennett Colbert was found with his cell phone and credit card in her home. That's an issue. That's an issue. I found it.

I was just walking along Bourbon Street and look what I found. A phone and a credit card. You charged, you bought TVs and stuff. Yeah, what are you going to do? What are you going to do? I found a credit card. I used it.

What are going to do? So this has been a problem, and apparently this Colbert has been working the French Quarter for quite some time. And she offers you a cocktail and then, you know, you get roofied. You get roofied. And then this one guy said she ushered me into some kind of black suburban that was literally right there. So she's got accomplices. and that's the last thing I remember that night. Okay.

And so I was looking at some pictures of Colbert. And, uh, whof. Anyway, uh, okay. All right, I guess if you're in New Orleans, you're gonna, you know, you want a party. Okay. So, uh, apparently with the, uh,

with the cell phone and the card that she took from, um, from this guy is, you know, she bought all kinds of stuff with the card as well. This particular guy had more than $80,000 that Butler stashed away in cryptocurrency account for retirement. Gone. And so this is what's been going on. So beware when you're out there ready to party. apparently she was arrested before this bourbon street hustler and the guy that, you know, filed charges and said, why isn't she in prison is saying, hey, the judge, you know, let her off.

I forgot. No, let her off. No, don't be, they'll be putting words in his mouth. so the judge said no prison time in order to pay restitution and remain on probation so this guy's like hey if now that manzano lost his life that's on the judge's that's on the judge that's not on anyone else all right we'll see we'll see what happens with this case but i'm not sure how um she lured him in uh look at like these pictures that I'm seeing of her, but I, you know, I'm not judging. I am not judging. It's Super Bowl Week. You're in the French quarter. What are you going to do? So are you familiar with Buffy St. Marie? She's a Canadian indigenous singer.

And she was just stripped of her indigenous title because, well, she's not indigenous. She was born to white people. She claimed that she's 82 now, but she claimed she made it a whole life, a whole life. She was claimed that she was born in the Pye Pot First Nation in Saskatchewan, adopted as an infant by a white family in Massachusetts but her birth certificate says yeah uh no you were born as Beverly Jean Samantha

to Italian and English ancestry in the U.S. And you just decided to pretend that you were indigenous. You know, I was born in a Pia Pieda Pond First Nation. Me too. Me too. So I guess, I mean she's 82, so maybe when she was getting started, they didn't actually check. Because, I mean, you've got to get some, I've talked about it before. I've tried to get on the rolls.

And you've got to have proof to get on the rolls. I wasn't trying to get on the PIPOP First Nation rolls. But you do have to have some kind of proof. So apparently the news organization, Canadian Broadcasting Company, obtained documents that seem to confirm the allegation, including a birth certificate which says she was born a white female in Massachusetts. and who her parents were.

So she was repeatedly, she said, no, no, no, no. This is ridiculous. Well, okay, it's an attack against you. Yeah, it is because you've been lying to everybody for years. So notice is hereby given that the appointment of Buffy St. Marie to the order of Canada was terminated by ordinance of the Governor General. So she is no longer right. And so, but the story leads off with Indigenous Canadian Star. It's got to be former now. It's got to be former Indigenous Canadian star, Buffy St. Marie. Lyer! But she made a life

pretending she was born a Pie Pot First Nation. no no you worry yeah I mean is she gonna did she make any money from the pie pot I don't know how much money they make I don't know if they have the I don't know I've never been to the pie pot reservation or the casino is there one I don't know where they getting government she was definitely people were you know following her and making her a star because of that so anything

I mean I don't know how she returns if she got money from the tribe then yes, that needs to be returned. Anything else is questionable. You know, she obviously used them to, you know, lie her way for a career. Just sad. Just said, I'm a pie pot. Damn it.

I'm a pie pot. No. No, Buffy. You're not. Sorry, so you're not. When I got a great deal on a great deal on a great gift at Winners, I started wondering, could I get fabulous gifts for everyone on my list?

Like this designer fragrance for my daughter. At just $39.99, how could I resist? This luxurious will throw for my sister. This gold watch for my partner? A wooden puzzle for my niece? Leather gloves for my boss? Ooh, European chocolate for the crossing guard? At these prices, could I find something for everyone at Winners?

Stop wondering. Start gifting. Winners, find fabulous for less. So I sent our reporters home for the day, which was a mistake. The Chewing the Fat reporters, they were all just standing around wondering what to do. And I said, just get out of here. Go take the day off. You deserve it. And of course, there's breaking news.

Right. I mean, I could play the sound here, but let's go to a reporter, but there's no reporter there. What are you going to do? So I just, we throw it live to D.C. And nobody's at the mic. Is there anyone there? I think not. So Tulsi Gabbard was confirmed as Director of National Intelligence.

That's what they're saying as we speak. So congratulations to Tulsi Gabbard, confirmed as Director of National Intelligence. I thought she might not make it, but everyone that Trump has nominated now, they're going to make it. They're not going to question him. He is just plowing through Washington, D.C. right now. And nobody's going to stop him. and nobody's going to stop his choices,

and it's going to be the down-trump program, get out of the way. And I love it. I'm here for it. I'm here for it. So congratulations to Tulsi for becoming the Director of National Intelligence. I'm not sure, RFK, they have not confirmed him 100%, and they have not confirmed Cash Patel.

Get to it. Get to it. I'll send our reporters to find out what's going on in D.C. with Cash Patel and RFK, well, tomorrow, because I've already given them the day off today. This is why we have zoos, okay? I see the story. They want me to believe that, oh, al-Bino zebras.

They're stunning, golden white coat due to their rare genetic condition. And they found in parts of Kenya and Tanzania. Man, they stand alone out in the wild. And they're breathtaking. but yeah, since they don't have any camouflage, they're vulnerable, and other animals are like, I'm going to go ahead and eat that. And they do. So there's only been a handful of a documented among Africa's rarest wildlife wonders.

So when we see them, how about we ship them to a zoo? How about we do that? Or at least we ship them someplace, one of the national parks, the conservation parks that they have in Africa. Africa. I mean, there's, uh, Kenya has those. I mean, they're always telling me how, oh, there's 20 super tusker elephants left on the planet in the wild and we've got them safeguarded in our national park where anti-poaching measures are actively protecting him. There's 20 left. Okay, first of all, 20 left in the wild. All right. I don't know how many

are left at zoos, but what would the world do without a tusker elephant? Really? I mean, I know. I don't want anything bad to happen. I'm glad to see them. I'm glad to look at them. I want them in zoos. I want them protected. I don't think we should, you know, there's only a few left. We don't need to kill them. But what would we actually do if we lost the Super Tuskers? Pretty sure the Earth would continue to rotate. Pretty sure the sun would come up. maybe not maybe not maybe that's what's keeping us alive is the elephant super tuskers but I'm willing to take that bad I'm willing to take that back because they're beautiful and I like seeing them darn it we lost them but we haven't they're still alive all right let's get out of here I'll leave you with the joke of the day sent to me from Denny he sent in his joke of the day to chewing the fat at the blaze.com

you Denny. It made me laugh. I'm not going to lie, I laughed, because it's stupid. And since we're talking about animals, I figured I'll use Denny's joke, all right? So, knock, knock, who's there? Owl.

Owl, who? Sure does. That's what I mean? Stupid. and subscribe to more Blaze Media content at the blaze.com slash podcasts.
