With Amex Platinum, you have access to over 1,400 airport lounges worldwide. So your experience before takeoff is a taste of what's to come. That's the powerful backing of Amex. Conditions apply. Blaze Radio Network. And now, Chewing the Fat with Jeff Fisher. So how much would you pay for a 1908 Harley Davidson motorcycle? Meekam auction in Las Vegas said the motorcycle known as the strap tank due to the nickel-plated steel bands that suspend the fuel and oil tanks from its frame sold at the end of last month.

Now, it's in great shape. The bike had many of its original parts, which makes it even more rare. The bike was found intact in a Wisconsin barn in 1941. and the guy kept it in his possession for the next 66 years. And it was mostly restored by this guy in Fort Wayne, Indiana. So it went up for auction and it sold for, do I hear $200,000? Do I hear $300,000?

Do I hear $300,000? Remember, this is a 1908 Harley Davidson motorcycle. It looks like a bicycle with a tank on it. Do I hear $500,000? I mean, it's in pretty good shape with a lot of original parts. Do I hear $600,000? It's really pretty and it says Harley Davidson on it. Do I hear $700,000?

Do I hear $700,000? hear $800,000. Do I hear $935,000 sold to whoever bought it in January for $935,000? Congratulations to the new owner of the 1908 Harley Davidson Bicycle motorcycle. it's all yours ride it show it off shine it up do whatever you want to do with it for $935,000 good for you good for you there's not a chance I spend the money on that motorcycle that amount no way at some point I believe our former president Barack Hussein Obama said it best when he told us at some point you've made too much money welcome welcome to chewing the fat so we've

talked about the theme park the new mario cart ride that people were all mad about because it didn't have special fat guy seating and we've covered theme park rides forever on this show and throughout my radio career theme parks don't have fat guy seating right and And people are wound up about them. They're just now, every so often it makes the rounds again, I can't fit in the rides. They, I'm too fat. They didn't make it for fat people.

And so, you know, you have to realize, look, hold up. You know, there's a reason for that, all right? The little kids want to ride in the rides too. If they make rides, you know, for fat people, then that lessens the ride for the little people. Little kids, not the little people. Well, those people, too. Those people, too.

But I've just saying, but I got an email. And we've talked about, you know, I feel like I feel like I've talked about this in a roundabout way before. But I got an email from Nathaniel at Chewing the Fat at the Blaze.com. And I love it. It's a genius idea. Nathaniel. And I replied to Nathaniel telling him, I love it. I can't remember if I've actually, I've never named it this before.

But his email said, listening to yesterday's podcast. about fat guy seating in theme parks, gave me one of your million dollar ideas. I never really thought about how increasing the size of the rides would mean that small children wouldn't be big enough to ride. That's when I had my idea. Every amusement park has a kiddie section. Why not add a fatty section?

Look at the size of that roller coaster over there in fatty land. I bet it doesn't do any flips. think about it I think that is genius I know I've talked about you know we just have specific rides for fat people fat guy rides

but I love the idea of fatty land so go make your million dollars and I will come I will come to your theme park of fatty land Nathaniel

genius all right let's talk about some stories that are funny but not real I had several of you send me a couple of stories that are really funny, and they're definitely chewing the fat stories if they were real. But now they're turned into chewing the fat stories because they're not real, but I love them. I should say they can't be real, but I love them. All right, so this story, I feel like we've done before.

Had this sent to me just the other day, and I feel like we did this story before, so it makes the rounds ever so often. It's a tremendous story, and it makes me laugh. And this story goes by a 45-year-old Janice Smith, who was arrested in Michigan for allegedly capturing numerous squirrels and training them to attack her former lover. The victim, 51-year-old James Robinson, was presumably attacked by the rodents on more than a dozen occasions over the last month. These attacks caused him many serious injuries, including the loss of two fingers in one. testicle. Now that's funny, but there's no way that that can be true. It even talks about she was partially hidden behind some bushes, but I could clearly see her. She was yelling orders at the squirrels

and telling them to attack. That's funny. Funny business. But there's no way that can be real. And then we have a man in Los Angeles. Craig Ledbetter has been placed into custody after reports came in from all over downtown Los Angeles that a man had been running up and down to other men and cutting off their man buns. Now, as much as fun as that sounds, and as fun as that sounds that I want it to be real, it can't be real. but it's funny. He attacked me and aggressively removed my top knot.

I was in fear for my life from this madman. It would take me years to regrow my hair. I hope he gets the punishment he deserves. Each assault can come with an 18-month service in jail. That adds up to 55 and a half years if he's convicted. Okay. Thank you. Now this is going to happen to him because he has to undergo a psychological evaluation.

so just know that in L.A. a man was running around cutting off mann buns. Very funny, but not real. Now you can continue to email me your stories at chewing the fat at the blaze.com. No problem. I'm happy to look at them. Some of them are great. Some of them may be added to the no way this is real pile.

But I appreciate it. Email chewing the fat at the blaze.com. you can always follow me on my social media accounts. Facebook and Instagram is Jeff Fisher Radio. Twitter is at Jeffie JFR. I was looking, I saw a headline where more than half of, well, it's being reported, that more than half of the top 1,000 advertisers on Twitter

stopped spending money on the platform in the first weeks of January. Hmm, isn't that interesting? I don't know that to be true, but I will say that it is interesting that he needs to charge, he being Elon, needs to charge for his blue check marks now. Although I still have my blue check, and I am not paying. I'm still, when you click on the old blue check,

I still get the, this is a legacy verified account. It may or may not be notable. So I still get that. He said in one tweet I saw where he was coming after. but he hasn't yet. So we'll see if we'll see if he lets that stay or not. I doubt it. I doubt that he's going to let it stand.

I just find that difficult to believe. But I don't know why. And then I was, I don't know why I was looking at it, but I was looking at the top Twitter accounts with the top amount of followers. Now, my at Jeffrey JFR is not in the top 20. I know. It should be.

Absolutely. There's no question. should be. But I see where number 20 is the Brazilian professional footballer and Amar. He has 59.1 million followers. So I just let the cat out of the bag. I do not have 51.9 million

followers or 0.1 million followers on Twitter. And then we have CNN who has 60.5 million. Bill Gates has 61.1 million followers. Wow. Justin Timberlake, 62.8 million.

CNN Breaking News has 64 million followers. And it's almost the same thing as the other one. Twitter itself has 65.3 million followers. Selena Gomez has 66.4 million followers. NASA has 67 million followers. Kim Kardashian has 74.2 million followers. You know, as at the time of the time of, of this story.

Ellen DeGeneres has 77 million followers, although she's had to have dropped some now. I bet if we look. YouTube has 77.7 million followers. Narandamati, 84.5 million. Lady Gaga, 84.9 million. Taylor Swift, 91.9 million. Rinaldo Cristiano, Ronaldo, 105.1 million followers.

Rihanna, 105.1 million followers. Rihanna, 170. 7.2 million followers. Katie Perry, or she's been? 108.8 million followers. I think Katie is fighting back from that pregnancy because she's a Midwestern girl, man. She had that baby, man.

I love you, Katie. I love you. And you're looking great. You fought back great. I'm just saying. Justin Bieber, 113.7 million followers on Twitter. Elon Musk, not number one, though. Not number one.

Elon Musk number two at 118.1 million followers. You think he'd make that algorithm work in his favor and be the number one person with the most followers. But coming in at number one, the most followers on Twitter. A name you heard earlier in this show, Barack Obama, 133.2 million followers. Now, again, that's the top 20 people who have the most followers on Twitter. and my account at Jeffrey JFR is not on the top 20. So it's getting there though, but it's not there. All right, let's go to the break room.

I need something cold to drink desperately. So I guess today is Annoy Squidward Day. If you're listening live, it is the 15th of February, 2023, and either January 15th or February 15th is Annoy Squiddward. Squidward Day, according to SpongeBob. I guess in one of the episodes, SpongeBob last when he's asked

what day it is and he says it's Anoy Squidward Day. So that's he points to the calendar, which is the 15th of January or February. And that's the episode Employee of the Month. So today is Anoy Squidward Day. So if you run into Squidward, go ahead and annoy him. Good news from Idris Elba. He has quashed speculations that he's going to be the next James Bond after Daniel Craig.

Everybody was after him. And then he said no a couple of times and nobody believes him. And he keeps going to, he said, hey, I'm focused on my role as Detective John Luther. That's who I am. Now, a while ago, he talked about being born. with being Luther. But I think I'm with you, John.

They must have paid him a boatload of money. That Luther is you, baby. That's your character. I yourself, but is Luther. So a great show. If you haven't watched it, watch it, but he's got some new ones coming out, a new movie coming out.

It'll be really good. And I love struggling detectives stories. Anyway, that's just, I love those. So, good news. I'm happy to hear that from Idris Elba. He would make a great James Bond, but I'm happy that he's like, no, no, no, no. I'm John Luther.

Thank you. Thank you, Idris. Thank you. Farrell Williams, you know you love him. He is now becoming the creative director of menswear at Louis Vuitton, the world's biggest luxury brand. The music producer, streetwear entrepreneur,

co-star of That Maggie Rogers, NYU video, will fill the role previously held by Virgil Abla, the first black American to lead design at European Luxury House, who passed away in 2021. So the appointment extends Farrell's already considerable fashion resume. He's the founder of streetwear labels, billionaire boys, clubs, and ice cream. He's collaborated with companies like Aridas, Chanel and Montclair, His first collection for Louis Vuitton will debut during the Paris Men's Fashion Week this June.

Wow, that's fast. He's got a lot of work to do. By apparently Louis Vuitton, you know, the parent company LVMH, has charted a different course from competitors. So, okay. I mean, I know that Italian designer for, creative director position at Gucci, posted, they hired Caring, I think. Anyway, it doesn't matter. Just know that Farrell is now the, what's his full title at Louis Vuitton?

It's going to be the creative director of menswear at Louis Vuitton. So congratulations. I know that Louis Vuitton is hoping that Williams will be able to juice up the old the old growth of Louis Vuitton. And I mean, that's a luxury brand, man. There's no doubt about that. So good luck. And it also bumped up Bernard Arnault

for being the richest person in the world. So I'm sure that my man Farrell is not doing it for free and shouldn't. And Bernard, oh, no, can't afford to pay him, whatever he wants. Temple University in Pennsylvania has unveiled a new course to its gender, sexuality, and women's study program, which focuses on digital pornography. Oh, okay. The university is going to teach students how to think critically about porn. Why am I not a professor at Temple University? Come on now.

they are going to offer social perspectives in digital pornography, the other sex education during the spring semester to discover how internet porn influences students and their relationship and to think critically about its role in their lives. It specified that students would not watch pornography during the class and would neutrally examine how pornography relates to characteristics such as race and gender, consent, sexual behavior, privacy, sexual violence, body image, and policy and legislation.

Yeah, that's what be my class too. Sex is everywhere these days, especially in the digital space. So it may not come as a surprise to learn that pornography consumption has become increasingly prevalent around the world. And no thanks to the credit card companies and the businesses who are actively trying to bring the pornography websites down. so people, you know, they can't make any money. Just a thought that's a little side rant there, but that would be in my class that I would be teaching how to critically think about pornography.

So the sexuality education aims to close the gap by a widely desperate K-12 sex education state requirements and encourage empathy. According to the university news release, while the newer 2023 course will focus specifically on pornography as a topic in sex education, students will gain comprehensive and holistic understanding of how complex the topic of internet porn is. And boy, is it complicated. Jennifer Pollitt, assistant professor and assistant director of gender sexuality and women's studies,

will situate it within sociosexual, political, legal, and historical frameworks. Talking about sex education without talking about pornography would only be telling half the story. Students will also study the development, implementation, and effectiveness of emerging porn literacy programs that started middle school to help young people understand the difference between sex in porn and sex in real life. I wonder if they'll also study, and this would be in my class if Temple would like to reach out. I wonder if they'll talk about how pornography affects relationships and long-term relationships if one or both start using pornography.

And I know that they talked about they're going to be using race, gender, consent, sexual behavior, privacy, sexual violence, body image, policy and legislation, but nothing about relationship building and relationship, you know, being torn apart from it. That has to be included as well. And the kids, I know that there's a huge gap, you know, when we have to focus specifically on pornography as a topic in sex education. It's a complex, it's a complex topic is internet porn. Yeah, no kidding. That's why I want to be your professor. So call me. You know, maybe email me towing the fat at the blaze.com or DM me on Twitter at Jeffrey JFR.

And, you know, we'll get something. Have Professor Meredithus Jeff Fisher, as I don't know that I want to, you know, don't tell my wife because she would be ready to move back to Pennsylvania. But, you know, I'm happy to go to work for Temple. I'm happy to teach the class. And I'll create a study course that, of course, will cover all. all the frameworks and institutions that surround pornography. No, no, I promise.

Oh, speaking of relationships and, you know, sex, researchers have revealed that a birth control pill for men is yielding promising results in the lab. Yay! Because of the unique way it would prevent pregnancy, this pill could become the first legit contracept. alternative to vasectomies and condoms for men. All right. Well, how will it work, you ask? The new pill, developed by Wheel Cornell medical scientists, temporarily immobilizes sperm by blocking a protein called soluble adenyl cyclase. Hello.

Or sac. SAC. That triggers sperm to swim to an egg. In the lab, the pill successfully prevented male mice from siring baby mice. Okay. For a couple of hours, though they hope to extend that window to a day or two. So up next, we're testing on rabbits, and then hopefully we'll have some kind of human-like trials. It's a big deal to get it approved.

It's an experimental birth control pill. It wears off. I mean, can I take the birth control pill? at the same time that I take Viagra or Cialis, that's the question. Can I take it in conjunction with those pills? Because there's plenty of people taking Viagra and Cialis out there. Cialis out there.

But can I take those and take the new birth control pill? I just ask it. I'm just asking because you know it's going to happen. So you might as well do it in the trials and let's see what's happening. Good luck. Good luck out there to all the trials, and hopefully we'll have a male birth control pill on the market, you know, as soon as it actually works and does what they claim it will do.

We'd love to talk, business. A couple of months after the fact, the feds are now going to probe the United Airlines near disaster.

So way back in December, way back in December, how old were you in December? The United Airlines flight left Maui in Hawaii and climbed to a normal fashion for about a minute. And then it dropped to within 800 feet of the ocean. Then it regained altitude. Now, the public really didn't know about it until there was an article written about it this past weekend. So now the NTSB has begun of, you know, their formal review. So the flight tracking data analysis revealed that it had reached an altitude of 2,200 feet, and it began a steep dive descending at a rate of about 8,600 feet a minute.

I said 800. It dipped below 775 feet. Wow. That's freaking close. Now, the entire ordeal unfolded in heavy rain lasted about 45 seconds and was not mentioned in recording. of air traffic control radio calls reviewed by the air current, which is where the article was written. So the United said they closely coordinated with the FAA and the airline pilots association

on the investigation that ultimately resulted in the pilots receiving additional training. I would say these pilots should be doing the training. I mean, they're ascending and then all of a sudden they're descending and then all of a sudden they're descending and they saved everybody at 800 feet without anybody being harmed? Uh, yeah. Hello. I mean, it was a close call, but they took it under control.

And they flew the rest of the way to San Francisco. And then they flew on. The plane checked off. They flew off. It was just amazing. So apparently, well, there was another flight out of Hawaii that experienced turbulence and there were people injured on that flight but

that's not this flight this flight was up and then down and then we're back up again everything's fine incredible I know so I know that the and the pilots came on and said I'm sure you know you felt that

a little turbulence going on everything's fine now don't worry about it so they were they interviewed some people that were on the flight and the one guy said he was with his wife and child and it happened so fast they knew something obviously was wrong because one minute you're taking off and you're out over the ocean and you're going back to San Francisco and the next minute you're on a deep dive and you know that what's below you is ocean and you're

in this airplane traveling at a high rate of speed the end result really isn't going to be favorable so he said that after the fact they realized that both he and his wife were praying because they thought it was possibly the end. And obviously it wasn't. But why are we having extra training for these pilots? These pilots should be giving the training. This is what happens when something bad starts to happen. You take care of it.

And you climb back up and get everything back under control. How about that? It was amazing. We had a lot of problems with airlines this way. I mentioned the other flight in Hawaii, you know, where they landing. had severe turbulence. Like 36 people were injured. 20 people taken to the hospital.

11 people listed in serious condition. That's pretty amazing because you're supposed to be strapped in, right? I mean, that's part of the deal is when you're landing. You're supposed to be strapped in. So I don't know how your injuries could be really that bad. But, you know, I guess they were. Then we had the two planes at JFK in New York nearly collide when they cross pass on the runway, right?

And then we had the incident in Austin. And then there was the incident in Newark where the planes clipped each other on the tarmac. And the one plane said, well, we're going to go ahead and roll this back into the, roll this back in. Obviously, you felt that. And we were just hit by the other plane. So we're just going to go ahead and wheel back in now.

And everybody disembarked. And they got a new plane. And they took off a couple hours later. still would have been a real pain in the rear. I would have hated it. I mean, we had that. I talked about this flight before, I think. I was flying back from Detroit with my son,

and we ended up having to take spirit, and it was the only time I've ever flown on spirit, and I don't know that I'll fly again. Although, just because of the comforts of the plane, you know, seats were kind of small. It was kind of cramped. But the pilot was great. So we were flying from Detroit to DFW, and we start to land at DFW,

and it's storming and windy and blowing, and we start our descent over the runway, and the plane starts to tilt and blow with the wind, and he cranks us back up again. And he makes a round, and he comes back down to try to land again. Same thing happens. So he cranks it back up again, and he tells us, you know, obviously we've got a little issue with wind down the ground,

so we're going to take this thing around and land. on the other side of the airport. And we circled around and came down and landed on the other side of the airport. At least that's what he said, and it appeared to be true. And he landed perfectly. Those are the pilots I want flying the planes.

Men and women who can both go, oh, there's a problem and this is what I'm going to do to fix it. And just no problem. Keep yourself buckled in and we'll be fine. And those are the kind of pilots I want flying the planes. Please.

Isn't it interesting how the hoity toots all believe that there should be affordable housing for everyone, except where they live? You know, not in my backyard. So there's plans for an affordable housing project on Nantucket, the Surfside Crossing. And they were submitted back in 2018. And ever since they were submitted, they've been contested. No. Not here, not on the old Nantucket.

Sorry, wish we could, but we just can't. Remember, we had the immigrants show up? Yeah, we shipped them off quick. No, there's no room. So apparently they have 24 condos, at 156 home, 13 and a half acre site, 70% designated for people who live on the island, year round. Now, 15 of the homes and 24 of the condos would be sold for between 261,000 and

373,000. But locals say, man, the island cannot support the building. So if you live on the island year round, say you're one of the due people of the Nantucket homes, are you making $260,000? I mean, are you making enough to afford a $375,000 home? Good for you. good for you so no Blackstone CEO was like yeah

now look we we want to do that and everything but you know it's Nantucket and we can't we can't have that there's no room

what are you going to do affordable housing of course is the problem you know we want to do that no problem but we just can't.

Not now. Sorry. Wish we could. But no. Sorry. Maybe. Maybe you go ahead and rent Hugh Jackman's place in the Hamptons. Maybe you do that.

But you're not staying here on Nantucket. Okay. You can get Hugh Jackman's place in East Hampton. You can rent that. Now, he's not selling it, but you can rent it for $166,000 a month. a little bit more than 166,000 a month. Actually, it's 16666. Maybe it ought to not rent it at that price.

1-66-66-66. Yeah. Now, you know what, Hugh, we need to at least change the price because I'm not paying anything with 666 in it. Okay? But you've got five bedrooms, five and a half baths, modern waterfront compound, occupies about 5,000 square feet.

there's a couple of places. You've got a gym, a theater, a pool, a jacuzzi, two separate structures. Very nice. And you're overlooking the water. So you can, you know, go ahead and stay there in the winter months. You never know in the summer we might want to show up. We might want to be there during the summer, so get out. But if you want to stay there over the winter and not, if you can't afford to be in Nantucket,

because there's no affordable housing units in Nantucket, you can rent a huge, Jackman's place in East Hampton for $166,666.000. Ooh, I don't even like saying it. Boarding for flight 246 to Toronto is delayed 50 minutes. Ugh, what? Sounds like Ojo time. Play Ojo? Great idea. Feel the fun with all the latest slots in live casino games and with no wagering requirements. What you win is yours to keep groovy. Hey, I won!

Boarding will begin when passenger Fisher is done celebrating. 19 plus Ontario only. Please play responsibly. Concerned by your gambling or that if someone close, you call 1-8665-3-1-2-600-0 or visit Comoxonterio.ca. So if we heard any update on Michael Irvin, the Michael Irvin story? I mean, he, you know, was kicked out of the Super Bowl coverage, left and right. They moved, I mean, they came to his hotel door. Hey, Michael, pack your crap, get out. There's been a complaint about you and your conduct down.

the lobby. Wait, what? Yeah, yeah, yeah, there was a complaint. Oh, by the way, yeah, they're not going to use you anymore for the Super Bowl coverage, both for ESPN and an NFL network. Yeah, go ahead and get out. I have a nice day. It's over. It's just allegations on his conduct in the lobby against some female, right? And he claimed that the contact was less than a minute, denied any physical contact. He said it was just an interaction with somebody in the lobby. There's got to be footage. There has to be footage of the Marriott.

Has to have some kind of footage in the lobby to document this. Now, he is countersuing Marriott, or at least suing Marriott, for $100 million. Okay. I mean, he was kicked off the air for an innocent handshake, pretty much. At least that's what we get. So he filed a $100 million loss. suits against Marriott International and the unnamed Marriott employee who accused him of misconduct. All right.

I mean, that is an interesting thing. I don't know what's going to come of it. Really strange. I don't know what we're going to go ahead and do with it. I don't think it seems to me that the complaintant hasn't. sued him, right? According to the suit, Irving, well, this is him saying that he had a brief,

friendly interaction with the Marriott employee, Sunday night, lasting no longer than a minute. It occurred in the hotel lobby, took pictures, polite handshake, went to bed alone. The female employee and Marriott then falsely reported Irvin to the league

for inappropriate conduct. So there were witnesses that said they didn't hear or see, anything. So strange. So we'll see what comes of this. We'll see what comes of this. I know we're supposed to believe all the women. I know. I know. She said it. So it's got to be true. Does it? Does it really, though?

I don't think so. Sometimes we have to push back a little bit. And good for Michael. He has the resources to be able to do that. And I hope we'll see. We'll see it. will be interesting to see the outcome of this. Now, of course, it's that time of year again. The best places to work in 2023. So the number one company in 2019 was Bain and Company. Then 2020, Bain and Company dropped down to number two,

and HubSpot jumped up to number one. 2021, Bain and Company was not hearing of it. They jumped back up to number one. And Nivia, Via, became number one. Number two. HubSpot dropped down to number four. Wow. Then in 2022, Nivdiya jumped to number one, knocked Bain and company all the way down to number three. And then HubSpot jumped back up to number two. Now in 2023, the number one company to work for Gainesite. You, of course, know GainSight. I mean, it's, okay. And then number two is Box. What a great company. Man, I love working for. box. Bain and company is now to number three.

McKenzie and company is number four and Navidia is number five. So congratulations to those companies for being the best places to work in 2023. Technology companies

made up more than 40% of Glass Door's best places to work list in 2023. Yeah, hello. technology companies are the best places to work. Yeah. Why do you think everybody want to work for Twitter and Facebook and Google? Oh, but those places are like everybody's being asked to leave now.

I know it's not everybody's shut up. But they're laying off thousands of people. And so I bet you those people are all running to the doors of Gainesite, Box, and McKinsey and company. Of either that or they're going to work for the NSA. say. I see where In and Out Burger is not in the top five, though. In and Out Burger was number three in 2019, number four in 2020, number three in 2021, not in the top five in 2022, not in the top five in 2020. What happened to In and Out Burger? Have they gone, what's going on? I love In and Out Burger. And they're, they're expanding. We're seeing In and Out Burger's all over the place. And their big deal is, right? Remember, In and Out Burger has their deal where they don't expand unless they have a place where they can have their meat delivered fresh. And you and I both know how important it is to have your meat delivered fresh.

Duh, In and Out Burger is a big believer in that. So what happened to In and Out Burger? I don't know, but I'm a little, I'm a little, a little upset. that In An Out Burger is not in the top five. In fact, where are they at? Holy cow. One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight. In and Out Burger's eight.

What is going on? Somebody had to make somebody mad. There had to be some. They had to be somebody to make something mad because those managers, remember when they were number one and number two, they were cranking out some cash in and how what a great place in and Out Burger was to work. So the pandemic kicked the crime.

kick the crap out of In-Otburger. That's a shame. Shouldn't have, though, because 2019, 2020, and 2021, they were 3, 4, and 3. And then, holy cow, where were they in?

In 2022, last year, In-N-Out Burger weren't even in the top 15. What is going on? So they fought back. They're on their way back in.

Okay, I apologize. Something happened bad. in 2022 to In-N-Out Burger. And then they fought back this past year and they're back in the hunt at, what I say? 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 10th.

So it's 10th or 11th. So they're fighting back. Good for In-N-Out burger. Good. Keep it up. Keep it up. Maybe I'll go get a double with cheese. Oh, that sounds good, man.

A double with cheese at In-N-Out burger. Yes, please. Wow, I just saw a headline come across that a woman and her two young children have been found alive in Turkey after surviving nine days under the rubble. Wow. I mean, holy cow. Her two children were in H-A-T-A-Y,

which is, I mean, the entire city, I guess, is reduced to dust. nine days. I mean, we're at a point now where they really are not having a rescue. It's all just, you know, we're looking for searching missions now. But over 41,000 people have been found dead in between Turkey and Syria. So that's really incredible that these two, children and their mom stayed alive so good for i mean bless their hearts bless their hearts i

i've uh that's amazing that that happened and they will be forever thankful for that and who will they be thankful to i mean they live in turkey so i'm not sure if they'll be thankful to god or not i don't know if they're christian it doesn't matter uh they were saved but i will say that remember we we talked about how the church of england said it's launched a project to explore whether to refer to God as a non-gendered way during worship. And the church says it's to reflect the fact that Christians have recognized since ancient times that God is neither male nor female. But as of right now, it says it has absolutely no plans to cut significantly change in its

liturgyz. Okay. So I got an email chewing the fat at the blaze.com from Ethan. And Ethan wanted to point out that, Jeffie, the Church of England, wants to refer to God using a gender neutral name. This is the most ignorant thing I have ever heard. When God appeared to Moses in the burning bush, God instructed Moses to refer to God as Abba,

which is Hebrew forefather. If God wanted us to refer to him using a gender neutral name, then he would have instructed differently. Ethan, thanks for listening to CTF. Stream and subscribe to more Blaze Media content at theblaze.com slash podcasts.
