Starting point is 00:00:53 Not only has he been told by the judge Yeah, you know If you get called to take the stand in the Dominion $1.6 billion defamation suit over there at Fox News, you're going to have to take the stand. Wait, what?
Starting point is 00:01:10 Yeah, look, I know you already did your deposition and you already said that you were aware that you were aware that several of your hosts endorsed election lies on the air that you knew were false. Did you re-reup? did you throwing your host under the bus? But I digress.
Starting point is 00:01:35 The sad news is we told you about a month ago that he was going to get married again to Anne Leslie Smith, who was 66 years of age, only 26 years younger than Rupert. Well, she's a little long in the tooth for Rupert, and that engagement is now off. Right now, he said that he was all in love with her.
Starting point is 00:02:00 He said, I didn't want to fall in love. I knew this would be my last, but we decided to get married. And gosh darn it, we wanted to just spend the second half of our lives together. Yeah, well, no, not anymore. Why? Why? Am I too old for you? Are you all tied up in this lawsuit?
Starting point is 00:02:19 No, you really are just too religious. You're too religious for me, okay? I just heard your interview on the Christian Broadcasting Network and what you said on the Christian Broadcast Network about letting the Lord take control of your life and how out of ruins you can rise and let the oil of his anointing just be all over you. Yeah, that's too much for me.
Starting point is 00:02:49 So, Leslie, I love you, but we're not getting married. Okay? So take care. Good luck. God bless. You know, your evangelical Christian God bless, but I'm out. Welcome. Welcome to chewing the fat. So for the third time in four years, Hartsfield Jackson Atlanta International Airport is the busiest airport in the world. Congratulations to Hartsfield, Jackson, Atlanta, International, for being the number one busiest airport in the world. 93.7 million passengers passed through that airport last year,
Starting point is 00:03:43 up 23.8% from 2021, although I will say that's still down from 2019, from, you know, pre-COVID. And then number two, who's been battling it out, at least they were number one during the COVID era was DFW, Dallas Ford Worth. They only had 73.4 million passengers through their gates this year, this past year. Denver, number three, 69.3 million passengers. Chicago number four. Dubai, number five, 66.1 million passengers.
Starting point is 00:04:22 Los Angeles, Istanbul, Istanbul, 64.3 million passengers. passengers through Istanbul, Turkey. Wow. London Heathrow, number eight, Del High India, number nine, and coming in at number 10, Paris Charles de Gaulle, 57.5 million passengers.
Starting point is 00:04:44 Wow, so one, two, three, four, five. Five of the top ten are United States, and four of the top five are United States. Congratulations to the United States of America for having the busiest airports in the world. Speaking of Airlines, Delta Airlines pilot was handcuffed, shoved into a shower and interrogated for more than an hour after the FBI and the DOD broke into his hotel room. And then they realized, hey, this is the wrong place. Sorry, I'll get you a hand. We get you out of these handcuffs and get you out of here.
Starting point is 00:05:31 Sorry about that. That's a mistake. Yeah, we didn't mean to. Wait, what? Yeah, we were practicing the FBI and the DoD together. We were going to simulate a situation where personnel might encounter in a deployed environment. And we were, you know, we were told that this was the room we needed to go here on the 15th floor. But it was the wrong one.
Starting point is 00:05:55 Maybe that's what you need to practice on. Instead of practicing your interrogation, maybe you ought to practice on going to the correct room. Let's start with that. Let's just start with the basics, shall we? Let's go. Let's make sure it's the right room. But, hey, we're sorry.
Starting point is 00:06:16 We didn't mean it. We got the EMS. We called them. Make sure you're okay. He said, no, I'm fine. And he didn't want to comment. He said that he would not comment. before speaking with his employer before he made any comments.
Starting point is 00:06:31 So he wanted to get back with Delta. He's a pilot with Delta. So he's an unidentified pilot, no name. He was just sleeping when the agents arrived. And he woke up and opened the door. So they knocked, they didn't bang, they didn't break the door down. They did knock and he opened the door in the middle of the night. And that's what they barged in and began the interrogation scenario.
Starting point is 00:06:55 I put him in handcuffs, placed him in the shower for more than 45 minutes. And I'm sure he's saying, like, what is going on? I don't know what you're talking about. I'm a pilot. I'm so-and-so. I'm a Delta pilot. I'm sleeping. I'm waiting to catch my flight in about seven hours.
Starting point is 00:07:12 What do you want for me? And then they realized, oh, hey, hey, yeah, we're not, this is the wrong. We're sorry. Man, wish we could. wish we could do something more for you, but we are sorry. Now, apparently, Boston police were called from Hotel Security.
Starting point is 00:07:32 Hotel security is like, hey, son is going on. We need the police department here. The police showed up, and the FBI and the DOD said, yeah, hey, it's a training exercise. Sorry, we screwed up. We just had a little issue, no problem.
Starting point is 00:07:44 Now, there's body cam footage from the Boston Police Department. So you've got to believe that the FBI and the DOD has somebody cam footage were filming this as well, right? It was a training exercise. You got to film it to go back and take a look at it. So, I mean, before we start the film, I'd like to say let's practice on say the actual room that you're supposed to break into and then repeat it back. And let's do that first. Okay? Okay. Thank you.
Starting point is 00:08:21 Sorry, though. We are sorry. man, we wish we would have done it in the right room and talked to the right person and had the right training exercise. Sorry to bother you, Mr. Pilot. You take care now. Sad. Sad, sad, sad,
Starting point is 00:08:37 sad. Another kind sad story, I mean, NPR, which usually tries to play the role, according to this story, which okay, soft spoken sidekick, uh-huh, but the social media platform, Twitter,
Starting point is 00:08:53 which you can follow me at at jeffey jf r has listed npr as u.s. state affiliated media uh yeah which according to this article which means suggest it it's an accessory to the u.s. government yeah kind of is uh we all know that right it kind of is so twitter started using the label the state affiliated media label pre-elon Remember those days? You don't get those days back. But they define state-affiliated media as outlets where the state exercises control over editorial content. And up until this week, its policy explicitly said that state-funded media operating with editorial independence, like the BBC. The NPR is now on that list.
Starting point is 00:09:50 It also means that they will not be amplified via Twitter's recommendation algorithm. I will say, since I haven't paid for my blue checkmark, and I'm still just, you know, a legacy verified account. I mean, it says this account is verified because it's subscribed to Twitter Blue or is a legacy verified account. I am a legacy verified account. I am not paying for Twitter Blue. And I will say that it doesn't.
Starting point is 00:10:20 seem that I am not really being pushed and my follower count has started to slow down quite a bit. My reach seems to have been, the noose is tightened a little bit on the old at Jeffie JFR. But, you know, whatever, that's fine. I got it. You do what you want, Elon. So I know that NPR was pissed. Their chief of communications officer told the New York Times Less than 1% of our yearly operating budget comes from government-funded grants. I find that hard to believe. I'd like to take a look at that. But, I know, if that's true, we'll see.
Starting point is 00:11:02 Most of the organization's funding comes from individual and business donations. Uh-huh. Other media orgs that receive substantial government funding, like Voice of America and U.S. military newspaper, stars, and stripes, don't have the label as of yet. Right. And the labels edition not only suggest to the NPR accounts, 8.8 million Twitter followers, that anyone who views it, that it's reporting is less than credible. I think we already knew that. It also means NPR will not be amplified. Yeah, during the algorithm. Yeah, we talked about that. We got that. So the site also just took away the verification badge for the New York Times. Huh, while leaving them other news outlets after the Times said it wouldn't pay for the blue check. And several reporters who criticized Musk had their account suspended last year.
Starting point is 00:11:57 And they do not like Elon taking away their blue check mark. I don't either, really. I don't want my blue check mark gone because I kind of like it. I got used to having it. But, you know, it is what it is. And I don't want to see it go away. I don't want to see Daddy take my toy away. But he's not taking it.
Starting point is 00:12:15 taking the toy away he's just taking you know some of the paint off the toy right I'm trying to think of a good analogy of what that is because you're still able to tweet you lose you lose the amplification but you still get to tweet and the people that you follow you'll still be able to see them so it's kind of a weird thing I don't know what's just kind of a weird thing that I like having it is all. So don't take my toy away, or don't take my toy away. No, you can still have the toy, but it's not painted like it used to be.
Starting point is 00:12:58 Yeah, that's what it is. It's the same kind of, it's the same toy. It's just a different color. And I don't like the new color. All right, let's go to the break room. I need something cold to drink desperately. So it looks as though. CNN is trying to get rid of Don Lemon, and they don't know how to do it because they've let him slide for a number of years now.
Starting point is 00:13:30 There's a big story in Variety now, exposing malicious texts, mocking female coworkers and his diva-like behavior. And this is a huge little Don Lemon expose for variety. and I'll read you the opening paragraph. Back in 2008, Don Lemon was co-anchoring CNN's live-from weekday show with Kara Phillips, a gig that he landed after he arrived at the network two years prior from local news in Chicago. For months, tensions between the pair kept mounting. On more than one occasion, a live-from producer and a newsroom supervisor had to pull Lemon off the air during a commercial break
Starting point is 00:14:15 because, well, they didn't pull them off the air. just pulled him to the side during a commercial break, but weird wording there. Okay, make it seem like they took him off the air, which they did not do. That was during a commercial break. Hey, Don, come here. Because of the anchors provide provocative antics. Not unlike his recent declaration that the 51-year-old Nikki Haley isn't a viable presidential candidate because she isn't in her prime. Amid the charged atmosphere sources say Lemon, disrespected colleague Nancy Grace on the air and Soledadadad O'Brien,
Starting point is 00:14:47 during an editorial meeting, attended by roughly 30 staffers. The kids are fighting. The kids at CNN are all fighting. I mean, I'm kind of okay with him, you know, disrespecting Nancy and Soledad. But, okay, you know what? No, I'm not.
Starting point is 00:15:08 I don't, you know, I got it. We all love Nancy Grace, right? I guess he mocked her on the air. So Nancy doesn't like him. She's a big deal. She was on CNN, CNN Headlight News, a big hoity-toit during those days. So you don't want to mess with Nancy at that time.
Starting point is 00:15:28 All right. So now he's on CNN this morning. And it's just he's a douchebag altogether. Okay? He's a douchebag. He's treatment of women, his unprofessional antics have gone back years. And for whatever reason, CNN keeps him around.
Starting point is 00:15:45 Because he's a gay black man. Now, at the time, I think when he first started, I don't know that he was actually out as a gay black man. Although I don't think he kept it secret. I don't think that he was actually out saying that he was a gay black man. But, you know, he obviously was and is, and everyone knew it at the time. And I guess he started dating one of the underlings, too, at the studios,
Starting point is 00:16:14 of course, which is frowned upon. But, hey, whatever. Whatever. It's just Dodd. It's just Don being Don. So these stories keep coming out about Don Lemon. His time is over very soon at CNN. I thought it was going to end up being over after the, you know, the Nikki Haley comments.
Starting point is 00:16:38 But who knows? Now he's paired up with Poppy Harlow and Caitlin Collins. And that was after, you know, the Nikki Haley thing. He's, you know, he's given Essie Cup a hard time. He's given pretty much everyone a hard time. But he's still there. I mean, we got rid of Cuomo. We cleaned the house on a few other people, and he's still there.
Starting point is 00:17:04 So, Don, good for you. Good for you. I know he won a bunch of money, or claims to have won a bunch of money in Chicago against Tower Records and a civil lawsuit. A few years ago, he's always said that he doesn't need the money. He's got plenty of money from that lawsuit. Okay. Good for you.
Starting point is 00:17:24 Then get off the air. Nobody's watching your stupid show anyway. I do, you know, I mean, we end up talking about him. He gets more coverage, you know, more people who are listening to this show than listening to Don Lemon's morning show on CNN. But whatever, good luck, Don. Good luck. I hope everything works out for you.
Starting point is 00:17:42 And you just keep, you just keep bad mouth. women. Okay, you just keep doing that. Bad-mouthing women, bad-mouthing men. And you just go on, baby. Keep going, Don. Keep going. You know what? You should go hang out with Jesse Smollett. You should absolutely do that. Wasn't he on Jesse's side for a while? I mean, it was reported. Jesse Smollett testified in court that he learned Chicago police doubted his story after Don Lemon texted him. Okay. I mean, that's what Jesse said in court. Now, he's a, you know, absolute liar. And Don Lemon never turned his phone over. So we can say we don't know for sure that that actually happened. But we know what was testified to in court. Although Jesse lied about other things in court, too. So you could absolutely lie about that as well. That's a completely other story. But I'm just saying that Don Lemon was in on that as well. It's just a, you know what? It's just Don Lemon being Don Lemon and the deuce that he is. And maybe Donald Trump was right when he called him dumb as a rock. No, no, no, no, no. But I will say, when you start getting these big exposés like that released
Starting point is 00:19:02 and with people talking about inside meetings and stuff that's going on behind the scenes at CNN, that stuff is being leaked by the network. Absolutely. And so they're trying to find another way. Hopefully he goes away, right? I guess probably what they want is for Don just to go away. Problem is, where does he go away too?
Starting point is 00:19:25 Carol Burnett back in the news. Carol Burnett, who turns 90 later this month. You know, I saw her on, she did, she was on Better Call Saul, the final season of Better Call Saul. She was, you know, she was fine. She was great in her character on Better Call Saul. She's going to appear in an upcoming Apple TV Plus series, Palm Royal.
Starting point is 00:19:47 And NBC is having a big to-do with a special title, Carol Burnett, 90 years of laughter and love. Actually, it says laughter plus love. 90 years of laughter plus love. Carol Burnett. And, you know, she was a monster star. It has been for a long, long time.
Starting point is 00:20:09 She has claimed now that the only thing left on her to-do list is George Clooney. So George, you better get on that, bro. Get yourself a little Carol Burnett and Bidness.
Starting point is 00:20:27 Speaking of TV shows, I see where the FBI crossover event, they're all three FBI's, FBI International, FBI and FBI Most Wanted, had a cross-hour event, a three-hour FBI crossover.
Starting point is 00:20:43 And I haven't seen them yet. I've got them devired, but it was an all-time largest audience of the season. 6.19 million viewers turning in across prime time for the FBI's crossover events. I like international. I kind of like the regular FBI. The Most Wanted is okay. Dylan McDermott is now the lead guy in FBI Most Wanted, and his character sometimes drives me insane.
Starting point is 00:21:14 the way they've built his character. But it's, it's okay. I don't mind. It's a show that I, these FBI shows and like the NCIS shows are, I like to just watch to, you know, pass the time. Like the regular NCIS and NCIS Hawaii have been pretty good. NCI, Los Angeles.
Starting point is 00:21:31 I know this is their last season. And good. Have a nice day. Take care. I see where Game of Thrones is now looking at another prequel to, who, uh, game, or I mean, HBO is looking at another prequel to Game of Thrones. So there's going to be more Game of Thrones coming to HBO. And why not? I mean, it's made them a fortune already. We tune in. We're going to tune in. We like the premise. We like the idea.
Starting point is 00:22:03 Let's get to it. Uh, it should already have been done. I don't know why we're in talks. I don't know what we're doing. It should have already been done. There should have already been three prequels. we should be back to men crawling out of the mud. I don't know. I don't care. The prequel of the prequel of the prequel of the prequel. Get to it, HBO. If you need assistance, email me, chewing the fat at the blaze.com.
Starting point is 00:22:28 Or you can always, you know, reach out Twitter at Jeffrey JFR. Facebook and Instagram is Jeff Fisher Radio. You can do that, okay? You can message me on my YouTube account, Chewing the Fat with Jeff Fisher. But what are we waiting around for? I know you're, Perry Mason's already done, right? Season two of Perry Mason has already done. The final season of Succession has already done.
Starting point is 00:22:51 When those finish up, there should be the prequel of the prequel of the prequel of Game of Thrones ready to have their grand new show. Is it a grand new show or a brand new show? Either way, it should be there. And there's a bunch of other stuff going on to. Amazon just signed a deal with the Indian government in an effort to, you know, grow, the country's creative economy. I mean, that's the growing huge market. Netflix is all over that.
Starting point is 00:23:20 Amazon may as well be too. And I see where YouTube is going to broadcast all six stages simultaneously at the 2023 Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival, April 14th through the 16th and April 21st through the 23rd. Why that hasn't been done before? I really don't know. know, but they'll be streaming from all the stages of the festival with six separate live streams. And I guess they're going to have content providers there doing interviews.
Starting point is 00:23:57 It should be fun. It's going to be a weekend, one live spring is sponsored. It's going to be awesome. That's a good move from YouTube. It's a good move from Coachella. It'll be fun to watch and there'll be some great content. And I guess they're going to have, you know, plenty of YouTube content creator stars, along with artists and fans. So just be ready for Coachella on YouTube.
Starting point is 00:24:29 With Amex Platinum, $400 in annual credits for travel and dining means you not only satisfy your travel bug, but your taste buds too. That's the powerful backing of Amex. Apply. So who died today? Who died today? Bob Lee, the founder and Tech Mobile, the founder of Cash App, was stabbed to death in the beautiful city, the healthiest city in America, according to our poll the other day, San Francisco, California. All kinds of tributes are pouring in.
Starting point is 00:25:25 saying he would give you the shirt off his back. Okay, I mean, what else were they going to say? He was stabbed multiple times outside of a high-rise building in Plush. Ryan Con Hill, San Francisco police have not yet made any arrest. I wonder why. And so everyone is heartbroken, Bob Lee, 43, attacked in downtown San Francisco neighborhood at 2.35 in the morning. Let's see doing out at 2.35 in the morning. Nothing good happens after midnight.
Starting point is 00:25:57 Stay home. You should, this is, I realize this is American, you should be able to go out and do what you want it at 24 hours a day, seven days a week. But what are you doing out at 2.35 in the morning? So many of his colleagues have blamed city leaders for losing control of the rising violence.
Starting point is 00:26:13 Yeah. Claiming that the city leaders have blood on their hands. Yeah. Hello. That's exactly correct. San Francisco. but very sad, very sad. Bob Lee at the age of 43,
Starting point is 00:26:32 dead. Rest in peace. Well, murdered in San Francisco. Still rest in peace, though. Then another name on who died today, Klaus Tuber. You know Klaus. He was the creator of Kattan,
Starting point is 00:26:49 the board game Katan. Who I believe is in the Game Hall of the Toy Hall of Fame. Catan, originally called the settlers of Catan, introduced in 1995, based on a set of hexagonal tiles, sold millions, I mean millions of copies of this game. He started designing board games in his basement while working as a dental technician in Germany. He said, I had many problems with the company and the profession. I developed games to escape. This was my own world I created. Very sad, Klaus Tuber at the age of 70 has passed away after a brief illness, according to the family statement.
Starting point is 00:27:36 Another name to Who Died Today? Rory McGrath. Remember, he was a fugitive. He was the ex-chief of staff of former Maryland governor, Governor Hogan. This was your former governor, governor, governor. Anyway, Larry Hogan, you know. Anyway, he was a fugitive. And we talked about him being on the run, right?
Starting point is 00:27:59 And nobody knew where he was. Well, we found him in, uh, in, uh, just outside of Knoxville, Tennessee. And he's dead now. So the FBI, uh, if you're a fugitive, uh, and they find you, uh, I guess they shoot you dead. Apparently he was, they were in a parking lot. He was surrounded. This is what's being reported now. I haven't, I don't know that the FBI is actually.
Starting point is 00:28:23 commented, or the fugitive task force has commented, but he was in a shopping center in Farragut, Tennessee. And that's about 800 miles north of his south floor to home. Remember, he was supposed to turn himself in, and then he just disappeared. And it was said that the parking lot was just filled with on-marked police vehicles around this white SUV, and it's being reported that he was asked to get out of his car
Starting point is 00:28:53 and I guess he reached for something, that was a mistake. You should not do that. That's a good rule of thumb. When you're pulled over by any authority figure wearing a uniform and holding a gun, when they tell you to put your hands up and get out of your vehicle, don't reach for something. Oh, here, let me get my... No, don't do that.
Starting point is 00:29:15 Because they get nervous. They have an itchy trigger figure. When someone in the car goes, well, yeah, let me get my and you reach. Yeah, no, that's a mistake. Just get out of your vehicle. So, then they rushed him to the hospital when he died at the hospital.
Starting point is 00:29:34 So everybody's sad about his death. I really don't understand the deal. He was scared about something and went on the lamb and then he was supposed to be part of his trial and federal court for fraud and theft and falsifying records. But he went on the law. the run for that? I mean, there's plenty of people on trial for fraud, theft, and falsifying
Starting point is 00:29:56 records. They're not on the run, especially in today's world. But anyway, Rory McGrath. Very sad. Dead, shot and killed by assuming the FBI, or at least the fugitive task force. He was 53 years of age. Rest in peace. It's hockey season, and you can get anything you need delivered with Uber Eats. Well, almost, almost anything. So no, you can't get a nice rink on Uber Eats. But iced tea, ice cream, or just plain old ice? Yes, we deliver those.

So the Masters, the golf tournament in Augusta, Georgia begins today, and Tiger's going to be there and we'll see how he does.
Starting point is 00:31:10 I don't know, he's struggling physically to handle the rigors of walking so many holes every day at Augusta. We'll see how he holds up. I know, you know, in the past, he's had to struggle mentally and he hasn't had to worry about the physical. in the last few years it's been really hard for him to struggle mentally and have to overcome the physical battle. So we'll see how Tiger does. He'll be a huge draw. Let's hope he makes it to the finals.
Starting point is 00:31:38 I was seeing how much it costs to go to the Masters. And apparently, if you're lucky enough to get one, if you get a pass, you're good forever. All right? Once you get one, you're good forever. You pay $450 a year, which I guess last year was $375. $75 so it's gone up.
Starting point is 00:32:01 Inflation has affected your master's ticket. So if you have a badge, you can always go for the rest of your life. You just have to re-up that membership every year. I don't know what happens if you don't. If you decide, well, I can't go this year. Does it completely blow away, or do they ask you again the following year? Once you get it, do they always ask you?
Starting point is 00:32:19 And you could say yes or no. I don't know the answer to that. But you can get in for, you know, $450. bucks if you already have a ticket. Now apparently you can sell them on the open market for thousands of dollars to get in. And, you know, they have an annual lottery that lets people in there as well. And they talk about if you don't get your tickets directly from Augusta National, you're going to have to spend money.
Starting point is 00:32:47 You can get the patron badges, the daily tournament tickets, and practice round tickets. Okay. So that's the way to watch the Masters. The good thing about the Masters is you spend all this money to get there. And then you wonder, well, how much is everything cost, the concessions? Because there's always event pricing going on at all these events. You know, the Super Bowls, whatever event you're at, there's always event pricing.
Starting point is 00:33:19 And that's not price gouging, by the way. Oh, no. Heaven forbid you think that's price gouging. No, no, no. That's event pricing. Okay, it's not price gouging. Okay. All right.
Starting point is 00:33:31 So, you know, fine. You finally got in. It's supposed to be the second hardest to obtain rather than the Super Bowl, and you finally got in. So good for you. Now how much things are going to cost? Well, apparently, you could buy one of every item on their concession menu for 66 bucks. I know.
Starting point is 00:33:54 Everything is. is cheap, cheap, cheap. That's pretty incredible, the prices of things. They have a picture here of the concession menu, and you see the prices of all the items that you could get, sandwiches, egg salad, pimento cheese, pork barbecue, Masters Club, chicken salad on honey wheat, ham and cheese on rye,
Starting point is 00:34:17 classic chicken, those are under the sandwiches. Buck 50, buck, $3, $3, $3, $3, $3, $3, $3. three bucks. Masters Club, chicken salad, ham and cheese, classic chicken, three bucks a piece.
Starting point is 00:34:28 Two bucks for the pork and then a buck fifty for the pomepto and the egg salad. I should just be giving the pimento cheese sandwich away, but that's just me. Under the breakfast, and that's only served until 10 a.m.
Starting point is 00:34:39 Okay, you can get there, you get the Masters blend fresh brewed coffee. That's two bucks. You get the chicken biscuit, two bucks. The breakfast sandwich, three bucks.
Starting point is 00:34:50 The blueberry muffin, buck 50, mixed fresh fruit, two bucks. Pretty sweet, man. You can't find those prices everywhere. The beverages, let's see what we got for drinks here. A soft drink doesn't say what your choices are, but they're two bucks.
Starting point is 00:35:07 Bottled water, two bucks. Fresh brewed iced tea, two bucks. What do you got in here? Let's see, domestic beer is five bucks. Import beer is five bucks. White wine is six bucks. And they have a drink called Crows Nest, which is $5.
Starting point is 00:35:24 And that has a little master's flag on it as well. So it's a special little Crows Nest drink. And then under snacks, you can get the chips, plain and barbecue. Buck 50. Peanuts, buck 50. Southern cheese straws, $2.
Starting point is 00:35:40 Cookies, $150. Georgia pecan caramel popcorn. That is so good. For a buck 50. And the Georgia peach ice cream sandwich, I bet you that is D. delicious for $2.50. So once you get in, you're eating pretty cheap at the Masters.
Starting point is 00:36:01 But you got to get in. And you can quote me on that for just about anything in life. You got to get in. You know, then I'm speaking to the Masters, I see a story about Jordan Speeat. Now, Jordan is a, you know, big-time golfer. And he, there's a story, I guess they were asking him, they were asking the golfers.
Starting point is 00:36:22 They're weirdest stories that happen to them. So Jordan is telling a story about the first time he sold his house in Dallas. He sold it for $2.6 million or whatever. It was a $2.8 million. And there was a starter home, five-bedroom, 7,000 square feet. It doesn't really count as making it into my houses of the hoity-to-oity. But it's a nice place, right? And then he was moving to another North Dallas neighborhood, Preston Hollow,
Starting point is 00:36:48 which is pretty nice, $7.1 million mansion. Five bedrooms, six full bath, two and a half, two and a half, six and two and what, six full, two half bathrooms. Yeah, okay. And that was the Preston Hollow House. Anyway, so he's telling the story that he left some stuff in a safe at the original house, right? So he goes and tells the guy, hey, I left some stuff in the safe. Can you, you know, can I come and get it? and the guy says
Starting point is 00:37:23 well you know sure you can have it back but you know you know I'd like I'd like to have dinner with you and I would like to have a master's badges for the week and he said I was like
Starting point is 00:37:40 no I think he should just return it because it's the right thing to do well yeah Jordan it is the right thing to do but you know why not help a brother out and let him into the master's maybe that's what he said I don't have time for dinner Maybe that's what you could do, Jordan. Say, you know what, I don't have time for dinner,
Starting point is 00:37:55 but, you know, you can, I'll get your master's badges for the week, you know. And so according to Jordan, he said, well, you know, I'll tell you what, I'm out of town. I'll have my, we'll figure something out. So I'll just, can I have my mom just come and pick it up and we'll figure something out. And apparently, the mom came and picked it up. So he got, you got your stuff that was in the safe, which was, I guess, was your, your, high school ring and a few other things.
Starting point is 00:38:24 I don't know what you had in your stupid safe that you would forget. And then you haven't done anything for the guy. Oh, okay, we're supposed to be okay with that. Well, I would say no, Jordan, that's kind of being, that's kind of a dick move. I know they say, that was a master negotiator. No, it wasn't. That was just him being a dick.
Starting point is 00:38:47 And the guy thinking he's going to at least get something for help, open Jordan out because he wouldn't you know technically I well let me say this Jordan uh I know it might be that seemed like the right thing to do but you forgot and he owns the house now so whatever's there is his so he doesn't necessarily have to give it back to you I mean that would that be a I'd like to have that now do it does he need your high school ring or whatever other paperwork you had in the safe I don't know whatever non-disclosure or you had signed in your safe that you don't want people to know about? I don't know.
Starting point is 00:39:26 But I just know that maybe you ought to do something for the guy. It seems a little bit rude that you could say, dude, that's funny. You know, I'm not going to have dinner or master's tickets, but, you know, I'll get you into one of the events, a Dallas event that you do here. Something. Be some kind of nice to the guy. Because while it seems to you that it's the right thing to do, it seems to you that it's seems to me that he doesn't have to, Jordan. And now that you got it back and you had your mom go over and pick it up, then you haven't
Starting point is 00:40:00 done anything for the guy? Not nice, Jordan, not nice. And another person that's not nice is the governor of Connecticut. The governor of Connecticut, Ned Lamont, he's a Democrat. He was in Texas, Houston, Texas, to watch the national championship game. as Yukon took on San Diego State. And he was doing a radio interview back home on the Chaz and AJ in the morning radio show
Starting point is 00:40:31 on WPLR's FM. And he told them, hey, you know, I was there in Houston. You walk around downtown Houston, which is butt ugly. Not much there. Hey, hey, Ned, why don't you go start a fight someplace else?
Starting point is 00:40:50 Okay? Uh, we live in, those of us that live in Texas can consider Houston butt ugly, but you can't. Okay. Okay. I live in DFW. Been in Houston a few times. I'm not a big fan. Although, you know, I kind of like it. I was made to like it because my, my buddy, my, you know, Pat Gray is, you know, loves Houston.
Starting point is 00:41:15 And so we went there. I went there the last time I was in Houston. I went there with him. And, uh, you know, he. chilled me around and you know i kind of liked it all right but i mean i didn't think it was but ugly but even if i did that's me i live in texas and i live i can call it but ugly okay but i'm not the governor from connecticut what's his deal what's your deal ned lamont not nice not nice okay you're a governor of another state in the united states of america you don't go to another
Starting point is 00:41:50 state and another city and call it but ugly. You just don't. That breaks protocol. That breaks nice protocol. You don't have to like it. And you can tell your friends that you thought Houston was but ugly. But when you say it on the jazz and AJ on the morning radio show at WPLR's FM, that's a problem. Okay, so why don't you take a hike, Ned? Okay, take a hike. Because we get to call Houston butt ugly. Not you. Stream and subscribe to more Blaze Media content at theblaze.com slash podcasts.
