The Swedish gender equality minister. Wow. Paulina Brandberg's extreme fear of bananas, known as banana phobia, has led her staff to request banana-free environments ahead of her appearance, according to leaked emails. The emails reportedly instructed the venues, including the Norwegian Judicial Agency, to make sure no bananas were present in areas she would be visiting.

She said, it's something I'm getting professional help with. I hope so. Bananas? It's a banana. I eat a banana every morning. Show it who's boss. This person's a minister and a government official and they're frightened of bananas that's their phobia what are you scared of wow i mean that is just uh

If there's not any delays, the 400-foot rocket will lift off tomorrow night near Brownsville. This is about a month after the last test flight of the Starship rocket. That's the spacecraft that helped NASA in upcoming lunar missions. The last test was the first time the company successfully caught the booster rocket as it descended to the ground after detaching from the Starship, which was dope. That's awesome to watch. Just watching that thing land and that arm grab it.

That's sweet. I mean, it's like, just to be able to do that, you know, say what you want. Elon's bad. Man, he's a badass. He is, man. I mean, that's crazy. Hundreds of Taylor Swift fans are filing another lawsuit against Ticketmaster. This time they're saying they are colluding to drive up ticket prices.

Well, no shit. It's Ticketmaster. When has it ever been different? Yeah. They've been jacking us for years, man. Welcome to what we've known for two decades. Yeah, Pearl Jam quit touring in giant venues because of Ticketmaster. Exactly because of them.

They did. Let's see. Netflix. Beyonce will perform during NFL Christmas Day game when the Houston Texans host the Ravens. Netflix dropped the announcement last night. It'll be the first live performance of songs from her album, Cowboy Carter. Some special guests are expected but no words on the details. Texas and

Ravens kick it 4.30 Eastern time on Christmas. I wonder if it'll be buffing the whole game. I don't know. Maybe. Hopefully Netflix learned from Friday but I doubt it. Do better Netflix. I think these people

need to send this display to the other lady an art piece consisting of a banana duct tape to a wall headed to auction this is that lady's worst nightmare is there a worst nightmare a banana tape to a wall oh no uh the yellow banana fixed to the white wall with silver duct tape is a work called Comedian. Yeah. An Italian artist named Maurizio Catalan. Uh, it's set for auction in Sotheby's. Shockingly, because it went viral, Comedian will sell for over a million dollars for a

banana duct tape to a wall. Is it a real banana? I don't even know if it's a real banana. I don't even know if you can eat it. I'd be like, cause you would have to. It's starting to can. Yeah, you'd have to keep squishing the damn thing out. It would be just mush at some point.

That's wasteful. The U.S. Postal Service announced a new stamp honoring Betty White coming out next year. Stamps are designed by Del Stefanos based on a 2010 photograph by Kwaku Alston. The announcement comes about three years after her death and celebrates her seven-decade career with roles on, well, lots of things, The Golden Girls, Mary Tyler Moore, and a lot of other things. Lake Placid comes to mind. That is so good. What a great role she played.

What a great, great role she played. It was because she'd always played such a nice person, and to come out and be able to curse and do all that. It was so damn funny. Can we pre-order those stamps? I don't know. I don't know if USPS does that, but I want. You want those? I want those. You're a Betty White lady. Okay. Absolutely.

Hey, Betty White was it. A U.S. official confirmed to the press yesterday. I'm not sure how I feel about this. When I read it, I was like, I don't think this is a good idea. But, you know, what do I know? Joe Biden decided to grant Ukraine permission to use U.S.-provided long-range missiles deep into Russia. First time Ukraine's been given permission to use Army tactical missile systems against targets deep in Russia. That permission comes after North Korea sent 10,000 troops to help Russia near Ukraine's northern border.

I'm just not sure that I think we should be authorizing anyone to shoot long-range missiles. I'm not sure that's for us to do. But hey, whatever. The firefighters are getting some of the wildfires in the northeast under control. The danger not over. The Jennings Creek wildfire in New York burned about 5,200 acres, was 88% contained as of yesterday morning. Yeah.

The same fires also burned 2,000 acres in Jersey, where it's 90% contained. I know, right? The world is on fire. Literally. Officials in Ohio, including Governor Mike DeWine and Columbus Mayor Anthony Ginther, issued statements yesterday condemning a neo-Nazi march conducted by masked men

waving swastikas who marched through Columbus. Did anybody punch them? I don't know. I mean, why not if you didn't? Bunch of nuts. Yeah, seriously. City Attorney Zach Klein said in a statement those involved in the march should take their flags and masks they hide behind and go home and never come back.

Real talk. Real talk. Get out. Take your mask off, bro. You punk. Yeah. I tried to get all my F-bombs out before the show started. Yeah, I appreciate that.

The fallout hasn't stopped from the E. coli outbreak that came from onions. Now carrots are the problem. Shut up. That's right. Organic whole and baby carrots from Grimway Farms have infected 39 people and hospitalized 15 in 18 states. This is why I don't mess with vegetables. That's what I was just fixing to say. Oh, man.

Fries. Fries. What about the carrots, man? Yeah, fries. What about the carrots, man? You're so worried about bananas. Be worried about them carrots. I tell you, put them in the hot grease. That'll anything uh two people at least oh 12 people at least were injured two

killed yesterday afternoon when gunfire broke out at a second line in new orleans the casualties were spread across two separate shootings 45 minutes apart according to the police superintendent uh one of the shootings, a vehicle was involved. There haven't been any confirmed link between the shootings at all. Out of over 3,000 students in the U.S. who applied to study at the University of Oxford, a group of 32 have been selected as Rhodes Scholars. Those students came from 19 states and the District of Columbia and attend 20 different colleges and universities.

The prestigious scholarships were founded by the 1902 will of Cecil Rhodes. He was the founder of the diamond company, DeBeers. And the scholarships, typically two to three years, can be extended to four, covers all fees, gives a living expense stipend, and pays for transportation between England and the location. It's worth about 75 grand a year. Pretty good. It's not the heart of the ocean, but it's some Titanic lore. A gold pocket watch given to Captain Arthur Rostron, who was in command of the passenger ship RMS Carpathia, set a record for Titanic memorabilia, sold at auction for almost $2 million, the most ever paid for a piece of Titanic history.

The watch was given to Rostrum by the widow of John Jacob Astor, the richest man to die in the disaster, and the widows of two other wealthy businessmen. It wasn't on his body when it was recovered, a week after the ship sank, and set the previous record price for Titanic memorabilia after selling around $1.5 million in April. Here's a couple good stories. Sterling, Virginia, 14-year-old Tucker Finley, turned his learning challenge into a business success when he started reselling golf balls he collected near a course at 9 years old.

His venture quickly grew and expanded to vintage items and memorabilia, racking up thousands in sales on online auction sites. Now, he integrates his business into homeschooling, gaining financial rewards, improving competence, and developing key academic and life skills. That's great, man. On Saturday, Madison, Wisconsin, a single mom, Blanca H hightower received a life-changing gift when her community came together to buy her a car uh provided through collaboration with some non-profits uh one being generous jalopy they uh they support uh her uh supports high towers to overcome past challenges create a better life for daughters, to give part of a broader mission to help individuals facing hardships achieve stability and success.

That's great. This is interesting. A unique giving machine was installed in Detroit, offering an easy way to support those in need during the holidays. The machine, sponsored by the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, the machine, sponsored by the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, allows users to purchase items like socks or meals for charitable causes by swiping or tapping a credit card. Since its launch in 2017, giving machines have raised over $32 million for global and local charities. This year, they've been placed in 106 cities in 13 countries. The Detroit Machine supports five local charities, Jewish Family Services, Zaman International, Catholic Charities of Southeast Michigan.

John Johanson, the project manager for the initiative, said 100% of donations go directly to charities. That's great. That is. That's great. Yeah. The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints came by my house this weekend. Did they? Yeah, they were going around. Were they on bicycles? No, they weren't, but they did have on safety vests. Yeah. So proud of them. But they

were going around knocking on doors and giving information for a program that is targeting my zip code for infant mortality rates and helping moms and all that stuff. So, I don't know. I mean, I'm not having any babies, but. That's interesting. Yeah. They're around. Yeah.

Well, they're always doing something. They are. They're always. After running a tour that he says wasn't, Jack White going on a self-admitted tour this time. The No Name Tour, supporting his album of the same name, kicks off December 1st. He'll do a festival performance at Hong Kong's Clock and Flap Festival.

And then he travels across Asia, Australia, New Zealand, and North America through May 24th in Oregon. Pre-sales are going to start this Friday. So if you want to see Jack White, you better be ready because those tickets probably sell fast. The Rock, he got him one this weekend. The movie Red One took the top spot. I don't know if it did what they wanted it to do.

I don't think it got close. $34 million. It did take first place. It had a big budget that could make it hard to get out of profit. I think he lost his ass on this. Look, I don't know what's happened, but nobody seems to give a damn about what The Rock's cooking anymore.

As far as his movie career goes. I mean, go on and come on back to the, you know. Well, he's already kind of started coming back to the WWE. It may be time to go back for a while. It might be a good idea. Maybe the time to do that.

Let him miss you for a bit. What do you think? I mean, he's on the board of TKO, so he's really invested in a lot of what they do. Yeah. Yeah. I just, I don't know. I've seen the trailers for Red One. Yeah, right.

See in my mouth. Very, very aggressively. There you go. And use your chest voice, not your head voice. Oh, my chest voice? There you go. Now you're on the radio. There you go.

All right. It took the top spot, 34 million. Venom, The Last Dance, was second place with another haul of 7.4 million. The Best Christmas Pageant Ever took third with 5 million. And then the horror film Heretic with about another $5 million there. I didn't even know that. Best Christmas pageant ever? I don't know.

I've never even heard of that. No. I have no idea. I am so out of the loop. All right. Let's get to a little bit of sports. Over the weekend, seven top 25 teams lost. Man, this has been a real topsy-turvy season, man.

It really has. Unranked Kansas beat BYU 17-13. Number 12, Georgia toppled Tennessee 31-17. Georgia said, hey, why don't y'all take a look at where we're ranked because this is dumb. Arizona State shut down Kansas State. They were 16-24-14. New Mexico got by 18.

Who remembered somehow they were Florida 27 to 16 so what's the updated top 25 Oregon still unanimous number one Ohio State at two Texas at three Penn State at four and Indiana at five and I don't want to hear about and I know I'm wearing the Razorback

shirt but I don't want to hear about it I already know once again we do exactly what we're designed to do which is get beat by a team they have no business being beat by and blown out and then staying within a few points of texas the one of the top ranked teams in the nation that's how we do it we'd love to break your heart every way we can in arkansas have you checked your deck oh yeah it's back oh hey let's check this out thank you brandon brandon you're the man yes now we have the power look at that man that is awesome organ almost went down man organ almost went down too yeah it was a close one did they play okay that's all right that's a good game though okay okay for sure it was wisconsin yes it was

yes okay well on friday night uh millions turned in or at least tried to tune in netflix to see jake paul win a fight against mike tyson sports books made out uh and look the bookies made more money and then Tyson and me. Yeah. Everybody got fleeced on this one, in my opinion. First of all, not me, not you. You were busy doing something else. But I will say this. The highest pay-per-view before was like 4.5 million viewers. That was the highest one in history.

It blew that up. Netflix had about 60 million viewers and the buffering showed that. Man. They were not ready for that number uh but having said that uh what a shit fight that was man it was horrible i mean i was embarrassed for mike tyson and look i i was hopeful the whole time i told you what i thought would happen but that was based on the videos i've seen of mike that they've shown. Not a hurt Mike. No, not a Mike. And look, his leg was hobbled. He looked frightened, to be honest with you.

Seriously? No, it was bad, man. It was bad. He looked like an old man. And I felt bad for him. I mean, look, I don't feel too bad. He made $20 million, okay? Jake Paul made $40.

Then Logan Paul told him in the ring, I'd kill you if I got a hold of you. I wanted to slap him, man. Shut up, man. I just wanted to slap some kids, man. It just beat up a 58-year-old man, Mike Tyson, man. paul told him in the in the ring i'd kill you if i got a hold of it oh shut up man mike i just want to slap just beat up a 58 year old man mike tyson man a dude looked like he looked like he needed to be sitting down at home rocking his grandkids i'll be honest i love that dude but talk about disappointment and the baddest man on the planet no no no no no no he's still the baddest man on the planet trust me mike in his prime will beat

anybody but that's not the point the point is is that maybe he needed a payday yeah but jake paul knew this everybody knew everybody and you know you get everybody you know amped up for that yeah come on man that was a big you know i mean i guess logan's out of out of treatment i figured he's always been away at malibu or promises of malibu or passages whatever his name is well meantime uh you know jake paul issued a a challenge to connor mcgregor i i you know please connor mcgregor please please connor mcgregor young enough canola or whatever that guy's oh uh can uh. Can. Oh. I can't pronounce his name. Yes, he will kill.

Like, he will put him in the guard. I wish somebody, somebody who's a current active fighter. Yeah. Would just say, hey, let me clean up the streets here real quick. I don't think his camp's going to take any fight. Oh, of course not. They're not stupid. I mean, if you think about it, two Tyson.

Canelo Alvarez. Yes. That was like two months before the fight, wasn't it? That Tyson was in the hospital three months before. Yeah. Yeah.

Yeah, no, it is silly. All right, let's see. Oh, a report over the weekend confirms inside the NBA will live on, but on a different network as part of a settlement between TNT and NBA. Inside the NBA will live on, but on a different network as part of a settlement between TNT and NBA.

Inside the NBA will now move to ABC and ESPN. Shaq, Barkley, Ernie, and Kenny will all remain on the show. Yeah, so you thought it was over, but guess what? Surprise. They found a way to get it back. And I'll tell you what, that's good for them and good for the sport because everybody loves that damn show. I'll be honest with you. They have some of the best chemistry of any team.

Oh, yes. I mean, they're great. I'll stay up just to watch them at the end of the game. Oh, yeah. They're phenomenal. Yes. Yeah. Chuck and Charles are always cracking me.

I mean, Chuck and Shaq. Shaq, yeah. They're all of them. They are. No, all of them are great. These days, collectors for what? Oh, these days, collectors fortunate enough to get their hands on rare sports memorabilia, find themselves in a position to make serious bank.

Now, on the other end of that, there are professional teams that attempt to lure fans to give up that high dollar memorabilia in exchange for gift package worth little in comparison to the cash it could bring. gift package worth little in comparison to the cash it could bring. The latest example, Paul Skeens, he has an autographed debut patch rookie card that someone currently has on him. The Pittsburgh Pirates won it, and they've offered the following. Two Pirates season tickets behind home plate for 30 years, a softball game for 30 at PNC Park, plus coaching from Pirates alumni, a spring training experience including a private

tour of Pirate City and Lecom Park, a meet and greet with Skeens, two autographed Skeens jerseys, take batting practice and warm up with the team and other unique experience. In response to this offer, Ken Golden of Golden Auctions offered to sell the card on behalf of whoever finds it and the money quote can put your kids through college, and you can use the leftover money to buy a meet and greet if you want. Estimates put the behind-the-home-plate ticket package should be worth $2 million at front row. That's pretty good if you can do it.

Hey, let's do something different. Feeling stressed? Why don't you join us in Safe Space? something different. Just rolling around in the grass. Oh, I wonder where he's off to. What? No! Let go of that bunny! Let it go! No! Knock it down!

This has been a journey to safe space. Namaste. Uh-oh. Uh-oh. In a row. Hold on. There we go. Okay. Sorry, I messed something up there, but now I got it back together.

Hey, listen, if you're looking for a vehicle, don't go any further than 8421 Stagecoach Road in Little Rock. You can also go to PittsAuto.com. I bought my best vehicle ever from them, a Lexus GX470. It's a little SUV. It's got almost a quarter million miles on it now. It's gone through my wife, then me, now my son. That's the kind of vehicle that you get. When I bought it, it had, I think, 50,000 miles on it. If you want a late model, low mileage vehicle, nobody is better than Fitz. And look, just found out the other day, the average new car price is 47 grand. That's a lot

of money, man. And new cars drop 40% the second you drive it off the lot. Think I'm kidding? Drive it to the next lot after you leave and try to trade it in. See what you get for it. All right. You can beat inflation. You can beat all that. Get a car that's low miles, late model at Fitzauto. Go to Fitzauto.com or in person, 8421 Stagecoach Road in Little Rock. All right, let's talk about this because, you know, talking about affording things and how difficult things can be, and this is real telling, buying a home part of the American dream seems it's getting further out of reach for many Americans. According to this new report from Oxford economics, a household needs an average annual income of $107,000 to afford a home in most cities, not Little Rock, but most cities.

That includes property taxes, insurance, still nearly twice as much as the amount was five years ago. Back in 2019, people need to earn $56.8 to afford that. At that time, 59% could afford it. Now 36% can. Housing affordability dropped over the last five years, and every major metro's house prices soared and mortgage rates doubled. The least affordable cities for buying a home, guess where? California.

Can you guess? California and New York. Can you guess?ifornia california yeah of course it's california san jose san fran san diego la and honolulu yeah if you're living there either you're rich or you need to leave yeah um yeah that's why they're all buying crap out here well yeah that's why everybody's coming this direction years i would get so many calls um about people wanting, you know, they had somebody from California buying property here or Texas, too.

Texas was bad about it, too. And they wanted quotes on painting their homes, their new homes, or their income properties. And I would tell them to kick rocks. Yeah. Kick rocks. Later on, she said, less than 15% of households could afford it in those cities. The most affordable cities, Decatur, Illinois, Cumberland, Maryland, Youngstown, Ohio, Charleston, West Virginia, Elmira, New York, and Central Arkansas, because you have me as your realtor.

Wow. That's right, baby. I got you on that. Don't worry about it. We can definitely help you. It is tough, though. The mortgage rates make it more challenging because, you know, as those rates go up, payments go up and that's the big challenge more than most

anything. But a lot of people do still think, and you don't, that you need 20% down to buy a house. And I'd say 90% of cases, three and a half% gets it done. Sometimes zero gets it done. It just depends on the credit. I mean, you can't have a 600 credit score and zero down. I'll be honest with you, it doesn't work like that. But you can still not do 20% down. So if you've even been thinking about doing it, give me a call or email me, and I'll definitely get you connected up with Josh over at AMC or someone to help you with your lending.

And we'll get you set up for success because there's a lot of good deals to be had out here. I promise you that. I just sold a house this weekend in Benton. One acre, a wooded acre, four bedroom, two bath house with a wraparound deck all the way around with a bonus room upstairs. I saw that house. For about 200 grand. It was beautiful. It is a beautiful house.

It was beautiful, beautiful. That wraparound porch. I know, man. It's just the perfect place to have coffee or whatever. And a wooded acre. Yes. In Benton. In Benton.

That's pretty cool. For 200, yeah. yeah yeah that's a pretty good deal right there yeah uh this is surprising to me in a little over two decades almost 260 million people in the u.s are predicted to have uh or to be overweight or obese the study publishes uh published in the medical journal lancet said that as far out as 2050, specifically 43.1 million kids and adolescents and 21 million adults will be overweight or obese. What about Ozempic? It seems like everybody's losing weight.

Is it just around me? I mean, my question is, like, is that because they're going to adjust what it means to be overweight and obese, like the parameters of it? You remember in school when they would put that little thing on? The BMI. Yes. That's what they based it on. I'm not a fan of BMI. Oh, oh, oh.

I think I remember. We were saying BMI, not B-N-I. BMI, body mass index. Yes. Yeah, BMI, Body Mass Index. Yeah. I remember my son was playing basketball, and he came home, and his BMI was high, and I looked at him, and I went. He was a beanpole, wasn't he?

Yeah. I'm like, man, come on, man. Come on, man. This dude ain't got an ounce of fat. I wish I looked like him. Are you kidding me? Yeah, make me that kind of obese. I wish I could be. Yeah, I know.

I'm surprised that the numbers keep going up when everybody is all i mean surely this ozempic craze has got to be doing something right to be i mean it's not a bunch of people in your life that you know gotten skinny they're on ozempic or they're on the knockoff for the kids they're coming out because the kids can't have ozempic yet yeah that's what I was going to say yeah so so they're still eating fat while mom's eating nothing and getting skinny

like mom why are you getting so skinny don't worry about it kid you'll learn one day yeah I know oh my god I wonder if they're going to end up

with like a an OA but it's ozempic oh yeah I was on it for three years I was on it for three years, man. I was on it for, yeah. Somebody's going to just literally wither away. I got down to 80 pounds.

Seriously, man. That stuff scares me. That stuff really does scare me. I know people that have the personalities and the ism. The ism. Yeah, and you shoot. You give a get skinny quick thing or you know get results quick thing or whatever no we just used meth yes yeah we just went and prescribed ourself the remedy

of course we also lost some tooth weight yeah your wallet and uh your house and your family. You know, you lost a little of everything. Everything, you know, breaking out in like orange jumpsuits and black tackles. That does happen sometimes. Up in the mirror like, get the bugs off, get the bugs off. Yeah, you know. Yeah, no, that hasn't happened. Hey, I've got to tell you something cool.

This is just a side note I thought about because my brain works weird uh this weekend gunner called me the g-man and he goes hey man i found a deal for us and i'm like okay what do you got for us he goes i'm gonna get us some billboards and i'm like what no that'd be awesome he said yeah i'm gonna put us on some billboards i didn't know we had the funding for that well you know he's very he's very resourceful let me say that he's very resourceful and uh so hacking them if you're going through jacksonville or dallas texas you're likely to see a billboard with me on it oh my god if you're out there send us a picture if you do see it you can get a picture of it, it would be awesome. I mean, I live in Jacksonville now, so I keep an eye on it. Yeah, keep an eye out there.

There's a digital sign out there that it'll be on. And then we said Dallas, Texas. Take photos. Yeah, for sure, man. Gunny, I don't think you're supposed to be hacking the digital boards. I feel like that might. Exactly. Man, he's a.

We can't out him if he is. Hey, man, listen. Let's get out of him. He's a guru, baby. He sure is. You couldn't catch me if you wanted to. You couldn't catch that guy if you wanted to. He's too good.

Hold on. Let's do something different. All right. Places, everybody. Roll sound. Roll sound. And action. All right.

And action. Let's talk about this. A South Korean man has been arrested after trying to fly out of Peru's capital with hundreds of tarantulas strapped to his body. This is ridiculous. The suspected smuggler concealed over 300 spiders, 100 centipedes, and nine stinging bullet ants in plastic bags at the Lima airport. in plastic bags at the Lima airport. He was thwarted when they noticed his enlarged stomach area. Pilar Ayala, a biologist with Peru's National Forestry and Wildlife Service,

said he was called to Jorge Chavez International Airport. In the report, they indicated they found a Korean citizen in possession of wildlife specimens. The citizen had placed these specimens in small Ziplocs with filter paper placed around his body contained by two girdles. They can be called out for times. This agency can be called out when it seems that tarantulas are smuggled and sold for high prices as exotic pets. Okay.

They added the man was arrested. The insects. They're not insects, by the way, if it's a spider. Thank you. That's an arachnid. Yeah. Centipede might be an insect. Maybe.

No. Oh, never mind. A biology professor at Hong Kong said that collectors are trying to get as many species as possible and don't care how. Finding someone covered in these, can you imagine if you're the, whatever their TSA are? None of them are insects. No, I didn't. I wasn't sure on the centipede. Centipede is an arthropod.

Okay. Yeah, there you go. I think insects have to have wings maybe. No, but they're usually, typically an insect is a six leg creature, you know, but not all the time, I guess. Here's the thing. Ew. Yeah, how confident are you? Have you ever seen.

I'm not. Look, have you ever seen a. I'd be more confident mule and dope than. Yeah, I know that's right. Rachel and centipede. Have you ever seen Brave Wilderness with Coyote Peterson? He's the guy who lets all the insects sting him or bite him. I have.

He did it on video. They probably still do. But he did it for a long, long time. And he literally was bitten by everything that they could find. And he created a pain scale for what hurts the most. Bullet ant is at the top of that food list. This guy had bullet ants taped to it. I mean, if one of those gets loose,

you know how many times you get taken out? I mean, you talk about pain. Damn. Tarantulas are pretty docile unless they're unless you're aggressive with them i'm assuming the bullet ant can bite through as well i would i would be concerned about that or the centipedes either one of them i don't want either of them gnawing on me that's no good we were talking about this the other day what um what's the worst bite or sting you ever had i had wasp um close to my groin area

like it was inside of my thigh yeah and it was the very first time i'd ever been stung by a stinging anything and it was um about six years ago really yeah and where were you man i was in my driveway at my house wow yeah it happened and it was so fast and it was that's a good argument for wearing sweats horrific it was summer yeah it was it was horrific i bet it was so bad yeah my gosh cj um man whenever i was younger i was out back playing whatever and uh felt something on my foot. Didn't think anything of it. I'm a kid, right? Right, right. Go inside, and I'm like, man, my foot's really hurting.

I took my sock off, obviously, because I don't have shoes on outside. Yeah. And there's a bumblebee lodged in the arch of my foot. Oh, wow. And, like, at first, I'm just like, oh, and I went to pull it, and I was like, oh, no, no, no, no. Man, a bumblebee. Yeah. Wow.

You know, I've never been stung by one of those. That tends to hurt pretty good. And the foot, too. Yeah, yeah. The arch of the foot. He had to break the body off and then pull the stinger out. Oh. And it was, yeah, yeah.

Yeah. I don't like bees for some reason. Yes. No, I can kind of get that. Chad? I used to be an electrician, and I was up in the E one day, and these little hornets got me right on the knuckles, man. Oh, man. That sucked, yeah.

Yeah, that's pretty brutal right there. Yeah, that happened. Laura was mowing the lawn because she likes doing it, and she ran over a ground nest, and she got swarmed by yellow jackets and i think they stung her 13 times before we could come off of her yeah it was pretty brutal yeah to be honest did she did y'all take her to the hospital no morphine drip no she's a badass but she's actually immune to morphine oh you've told me told me that. Yeah, it's like water. I forgot about that.

That is horrible. I didn't do anything for her. But, no, it was bad. Now, she is allergic to bee sting. A bee sting, we've got to keep her away from those. Yeah. For sure. Y'all roll with EpiPens? No.

No, we probably should, but don't. Y'all just like to live dangerously? We're crazy, man. It's like, you know, my youth, the things I've done, you know, that's all I'm going to say.

We don't carry no EpiPens, man. We don't need no stinking EpiPen. Have you ever been, uh, uh, assaulted, attacked, bitten,

anything by another, an animal that's not a bug? Uh, I got attacked by a Great D great dane it wasn't really a great dane yeah yeah why well i got what'd you do i was living in bologna i got off the bus and so on the bus i'm i'm in there i'm protected yeah so like leaving the house i would always like antagonize it oh it couldn't get out of the fence so i'm just like walking by and i'm like okay so he's chilling right and i'm walking home i sat there i look over and i was like you know mocking him

and then he stuck his head out the little hole in the fence that i didn't notice i'm like oh god yeah he'd had enough of your mouth, didn't he? I could not run that dog. No, you could not have. I was about 100 pounds lighter back then. You got that Scooby-Doo. I got bit. Yeah. One time. On the butt even.

Wow. And I stopped, and I'm just like, and I turned around, and he just like stared at me. I'm like, okay. We're good. We're good, homie. We're good. That shows you how good they are. He's like, listen, I'm going to teach you a lesson, but I'm but i'm not gonna really hurt you leads into two fears of mine big dogs and bees big

dogs and bees wow that's that's a that's just okay how about yourself ever been bitten by an animal other than an insect or spider i was i was bit uh by a dog one time. I was petting it, and it had received shots that day. And I bit that dog? Right? You bit that dog. Yeah, it's fine. Where I grew up downtown, it was right by 630, and we had lead poisoning. There was, you know, in the ground, and the dog had been treated.

Oh. And I apparently had scratched him on his butt. Oh, no, he didn't like it. And I have, like, a little bit of a scar where it, you know, pulled the skin back. But I mean, yeah, that's really the only other animal I've had any experience with. Anything?

My pet squirrels get married once in a while. You got some pet squirrels? You currently have or you did have? No, I still got them. I'm sorry, hold on. Hey, hey, hey. Hold on, hold on a second, hold on. But let sorry. Hold on. Hey, hey, hey. Hold on. Hold on a second.

Hold on. But let's keep that on the DL. You know what they did to. No, mine are legal. Mine are legal. Okay, good. I forgot we're in Arkansas. I'm not even familiar with these.

I haven't met these guys. What the hell are you talking about? Bring them in, Chad. Emmy and Coco, man. Where do they live? Where do Emmy and Coco, do they live in the trees? No, I have a room. It's my wife's craft room and then

we have like this cage oh you actually have pets yeah yeah well they're flying squirrels they're not just regular squirrels the sugar gliders yeah the little ones yeah i got i'll send you pictures when i get home screw that you're gonna bring them to the studio when are they coming i can bring them when are they coming when do you want them friday i'll bring them friday hell yeah bring them my god i'm gonna have to dim the lights a little bit but yeah we can bring them. When are they coming? When do you want them? Friday. I'll bring them Friday. Hell yeah. Bring them Friday. I'm going to have to dim the lights a little bit. We can put them in a dim place, but we could dim the lights just so people could see them. Are you serious?

Yeah. That's cool, man. Is it bad for them to bring them? No, I got a little cage I can bring them in. I was going to say, what kind of carrier do you have for them? It's probably like... So what are they like to what's what's their deal what are they into nuts no i mean but i mean as far as pets go do they just run around do they

like you do they not like you what's their story they're pretty cool man like they'll talk they like make little noises back and forth like are they affectionate at all yeah and like if you don't give them enough attention you'll hear them back they're going like they have a little call like get your ass in here and take care okay so they like attention they like to be pet yeah my dog right now we got a new dog and he's kind of like filling them out and stuff so you have you you hadn't any problem with dogs trying to get them but on the on the site man you see like dogs they're like on the dogs, riding dogs, but I don't trust my dog. No. I saw a bird riding on some animal the other day. Oh, he was on a dog.

My dog's only like eight months. I don't really trust it. What kind of dog? I got a little Frenchie. Oh, okay. I got like a zoo at my house. Yeah, you do. Well, that dog's not much bigger than the squirrel.

Oh, man. Yeah, he's getting there. A little French. What is it? A French what? It's just a frenchie so like a little dog okay all right very cool very yeah if you really i'll bring them in friday if you really want me to you know i really do yeah i had ferrets when i was in my head ferrets too man but they stink even when i was just gonna say these right here are from australia and like don't smell. Do they speak with an accent? I don't know that.

Good day. Good day, mate. Are you sure that they're safe? Because, I mean, they're from Australia, so they might want to kill you. Oh, they might want to kill you. That's true. They don't give off scents. Okay. So other animals can't smell them.

That's like one of their defenses. Really? That's really cool. They don't really stink in your house. That was like one of the main things that sold me. The opposite of parrots, because that's right parrots use that scent uh like skunks do they're a polecat they're a polecat you know same family yeah okay and um they're they're fun though they were you know i loved them they were a lot of fun but they hid my keys all the time anything shiny yeah did the squirrels do that no they just they just like to bite every

once in a while. They'll just act like they're going to be cool and then just reach in and bite. Yeah. When you had parrots, did they steal all your stuff? Oh, man, yeah, and they'd bite you, too. Yeah, they would bite now and again. Yeah, just because. Yeah, just because.

Like, I'm just a parrot. Yeah, yeah, just because they're assholes. All right. Let's do something different. And now, another first world problem. Oh, I broke my chip in the dip. Use another one to scoop it out. Oh, I broke that one too.

That sucks. I know. Me. Damn it. I'm going home. All right. Check this statistic out. All right, check this statistic out.

In 2024, more musicians are making and releasing music than ever before. In fact, a new report finds that more music is released every single day now than in the entire year of 1989. Think about that. Every single day, we release more music than the year 1999. Yeah, of course. Yeah. Everybody's got studios and stuff. And not all the music's good either. Right. Yeah. I wasn't going to go there. The report put out by Music Radar, they spoke with music business economist Will Page. He used to run Spotify. About the changing dynamics, he said, more music being released in a single day than the calendar year of 89, more music being done by artists themselves,

meaning there's even more demand for music production software. It's true, the rise in musicians goes hand in hand with the rise of software and distribution platforms. Now that making high high quality recordings is possible from the palm of your hand and then you can just tap a finger to share it an unprecedented amount of people have the ability to become active content creating musicians not all of them should you've seen them online not all of them could put out a song like wackadoos in the news and make it sound as good as I do. So don't.

According to media state of the music creator economy report, the global number of music creators was 75.9 million in 2023. In 2030, that number will be 198 million. So if you're thinking about dropping music, I'd do it beat the rush drop that track now baby uh this is all this bodes well for the tech companies and content platforms that benefit from it yeah that's very true you know um but there's a lot of artists out there too what i do love about it is there are a lot of great artists out there who wouldn't get this kind of uh attention or notification notice uh any other way than releasing music like this you know it's just like mixtapes and stuff well yeah whatever it may be i mean it's just like you know they dropping an album um is is kind of starting to go away a little more you know more artists are opting less for albums

and more just dropping a couple tracks here and there and continually dripping out music versus putting out you know one album at the same time yeah it makes sense though yeah no i mean it look if you're an independent creator it's more cost effective to do it that way you really don't have nothing to feel like a cd or you know i'm saying like you can just put out a song yeah right right right i mean the cd um i was just saying the other day no no it's funny you mentioned that i was telling them uh i think maybe friday that we've been uh cleaning out the storage building because we moved you know and found a big binder of cds and i'm like, I can't throw them away.

Right now. But I don't know what to do with them. I'm just sitting there looking at them going, man, what am I going to do? I found a bunch from my old days. Did you? From my old days that had to have my name on them. Oh, yeah. Nobody stole them?

Well, they didn't get mixed up in the DJ booth, you know. They knew what CD to play for what set, you know. I heard last week Akon is coming out with an album. Like, he's actually coming out with an album. A vinyl album. Yeah, and they're doing, like, full graphics and doing the verbiage and all this stuff, like taking it back to the old school. Yeah.

A lot of artists are because there's been a big, uh, you know, resurgence in, in audio files, love and vinyl, because they say that sound is, is much more pure.

It's not compressed the way a CD is. So it's supposed to, if you're a real music fan, I like it. Make a big difference. Now me on the other hand i like my stuff punched up and produced as hell i like mine however efficiency yeah efficiency is what i want depends on the artist like some of the other schools yeah yeah and if i'm at home chilling on

you know a tuesday rainy tuesday afternoon i'll do vinyl yeah yeah you you got a record player i do oh that's cool what's uh what's your favorite vinyl to put on so right now my new is the new leon bridges um i just got it um a couple weeks ago got a signed vinyl because i'm fancy like that who is leon bridges i don't know bridges he's out of um texas uh he's a he's just a he's a young cat that's doing music the old way like it's you know it's some old school kind of r&b vibes okay um very just uh melodic you know um a lot of bass okay so kind of throwing back to the marvin gaze yeah yeah and like an amplified electric great leon bridges if that's not a stage name is a damn good name for that kind of artist oh and he does like the flared suits you know the

like not like flashy not andre 3000 no no but he is his voice is absolutely beautiful man what cd did you have when CDs were big that, man, you probably got the same CD two or three times because you just flat wore it out? Man, this is kind of embarrassing. The first one that I remember like that. I like that first Nelly the Country Grammar. Why is that embarrassing? I don't know, man.

That's like a multi-platinum album. Everybody loves that. It's getting hot in here. Come on, man. I played the heck out of that. Because if you had aatinum album. Everybody loves that. It's getting hot in here. Come on, man. I played the heck out of that. Because if you had a girl in the car, you had like, it's hot in here. And then you had like, he had a little jam to forget. Like, it hit all around.

No, it was good for that. No, that was like the first CD that I like really. Yeah. Nelly was great because all the girls loved it and you could still get rap on. So it kind of worked out for everybody. Yeah, I'm with you there. What was the CD that you burn up, maybe had to get a new one? This is really random, but Becoming Remixed by Sneaker Pimps.

Oh, the Sneaker Pimps. Like, it was their… They had Six Underground. That was a great song by them. It was so good. And I wish that there hadn't been such effed up egos in that band because um they were real good they would have gone so very far if they hadn't gotten rid of her but there was a becoming remixed which was remixes of all the songs on becoming x

and i loved that album so much love the cd so much. I played it professionally a lot. And with it, you know, in my personal life that I've had it, you know, burned three times. Wow. Okay.

And I keep it on a rotation. It's in my car right now. That's a good one. What about you, man? Um, Slim Shady LP. Oh,

yeah. What a great choice there. It's just, everyone's like, oh, you know, when's Marshall going to go back to slim? I mean, I don't think he could go back to that slim and still be okay.

Yeah, he'd have to call his sponsors. He would actually be canceled. Yeah. Mine was the Chronic. Yes. There you go. Dr. Dre, yeah, I think I bought that three or four times. It was stolen once at least.

Yeah, it always got jacked. It got ganked once. I accidentally broke one once and then the other one i slapped wore out i i guess uh playing it so much yeah i got it scratched and everything and it wouldn't man was there anything to make you more mad than when you're rolling down the road in your car and it starts it wouldn't do anything you just stay there get it out and start trying to buff it on your leg. Oh, yeah. Yeah, yeah.

He died this month. He was 91. He was awarded an Honorary Lifetime Achievement Oscar at the Governor's Awards on Holiday Sunday. And his daughter, actress Reseda Jones, I did not even know that. Oh, yeah. Accepted the award. He produced a lot of hits. He also produced movies like The Color Purple and things like that.

So when they do these posthumous you know uh oscars and and whatnot where does the oscar go well is that like no is that like um a participation trophy yeah like we're really sorry you didn't do anything yeah well you're alive good enough i think and why didn't they give him oscars previously well i don't know maybe he had one i should i don't know he was black oh was it because he's black i don't know. Maybe he had one. Shit, I don't know. Because he was black.

Uh-oh. Was it because he's black? I don't think so. It's Quincy Jones. A New Hampshire animal shelter has a large and weird problem. A man arrived at the shelter Monday to surrender what he thought was 150 mice, but then he clarified 150 containers of mice. The guy continued to bring over 1,000 rodents.

Nope. The shelter is now overwhelmed. With food for some snakes. Part of the shelter's cat area has been turned into a mouse hospital and hotel. How rude is that? Now the cat has to walk by and look at mice laid up in little beds, little IVs and stuff. I'll tell you this. If you're in that area, do not adopt one of those cats because I promise you them heifers are pissed.

They are mad. Pissed at this point and they're going to take it out on you. They might. Yeah. It sounds like they've got food for some snakes. You should hook up with the zoo, the local zoo or whatever. Yeah. That's a good idea.

Where's the he's like i'm out where's the car hey dude where's my um a new study from oh no i'm stupid a new kind of ride share service expanding into three texas cities black wolf looking to hire 50 drivers as they move into dallas what makes them different

than uber or lyft is their drivers are armed. All right. Yeah, Black Wolf operates in eight Florida cities, Nashville and Phoenix and Scottsdale. Every bit of that makes sense. If you need alarms. Work on you or something. Every bit of that makes sense. Y'all need to go and bring that over here.

Definitely work is what you're carrying with you when you need arm support. It sounds like drug dealer Uber. That's what I'm saying, man. Bring that over here. Definitely work is what you're carrying with you when you need arm support. Yeah. Or it sounds like drug dealer Uber. That's what I'm saying, man. Gangsta Uber. Yeah.

Like private security. Like budget. Yeah. Private security. Yeah, top flight security. Of the world, correct? Yeah, bro. The annual hair freezing contest, because there is one.

Wow. correct yeah bro the annual hair freezing contest because there is one wow that eclipse nordic hot springs in yukon canada has been called off due to unseasonably warm weather oh no the contest where participants dip their head in the hot springs and create wild frozen hairstyles temperatures used to drop to negative four or lower. It's been postponed. The current temperature is 32. The colder it is, the better and faster the freezing effect. Of course, they're blaming climate change, not just historical weather patterns. But the hair freezing contest, which usually runs December and March, gained global fame. Did it?

Really? In 2020, when it set the Guinness record for world's largest frozen hair competition. Well, 2020 makes sense because, you know, there was nothing else going on. Nobody had anything to do but watch ESPN The Ocho. Ocho. Something like that. I'm excited, Pepper. Yeah, right?

I love that. I like that movie. That is such a good movie. Dodgeball. Guys, man. You dodge a wrench. You dodgeball. Yeah, I think that's right cotton mike tyson once revealed he offered 10 grand to a new york zookeeper and oh no he revealed he

off yeah offered 10 grand in the late 80s to fight a silverback he saw bullying others during a private zoo tour with then-wife robin givens recalling the moment tyson said there was one big silverback just bullying all the gorillas they were powerful but their eyes were like innocent offered the attendant 10 grand to open the cage and let me smash that silverback snot box he declined oh now here's the question here's the question let's debate the question. Let's debate this. You know what a silverback gorilla is. One of the most powerful animals on the planet.

I don't know if he's got a chance, man. Mike Tyson in his prime versus a silverback in its prime. Who's the winner? Silverback. Silverback. Silverback. Silverback. Man, if you're assuming them things at this point.

Yeah, no, they're very powerful. TJ, who are you taking? In his prime, Tyson? Yeah. Yeah. I mean, Tyson was bad. TJ, who are you taking? In his prime, Tyson? Yeah. Yeah. I mean, he bobs and weaves and gets one good hit. Oh, but he's got to get that hit. Bro, say it.

You think? All that Doc has got to do is grab. He has a better chance than Jake Paul would. Yeah. Maybe. Oh, in his prime? Yeah, for sure. I think Mike might get a couple good hits on it, might stun it,

then is going to jump on his head and start eating it. Invite him. Back to that, man. I've seen something today or yesterday where it said that his first tiger, Tyson's first tiger came from Tiger King. Oh, really? I was going to say, you might need to ask. I'll ask about that.

Hold on. Let me make a note of that. That's a good question. Hold on one second, everybody. I'm going to make a note here. That popped up on my feed. Yeah. Okay. That's a good question. Hold on one second, everybody. I'm going to make a note here. That popped up on my feed. Yeah, okay. That's pretty cool.

Yeah, no, that's super cool, man. That's an interesting connection, isn't it? All right, then. All right, let's see here. A Bradenton, Florida woman found herself in hot water after using her mom's identity to cash in on hurricane disaster funds. Veronica Torres, facing third-degree felony, she filed a false public assistance claim, told authorities she was displaced due to hurricane damage, securing approval for $8,000 in aid. Well, that plot unraveled when a city employee noticed Torres looking suspiciously youthful compared to the photo

in her application her excuse Botox Botox is good but that did not work uh she's been arrested and and she's in trouble now you are absolutely right what's that about uh Tyson and Joe Exotic so it's true yeah I didn't know if it's 100 true i just heard it well i mean it's on the internet though so it's got to be true so it's got to be true okay in like four different locations so i mean obviously yeah wow man that is cool we'll talk about that uh later then um a new piece of technology serving up a food favorite across the country. Pizza Forno is a pizza vending company that serves pies 24 hours a day, seven days a week through a vending machine piece of technology. In Vegas?

It's got locations across the country. Their first West Michigan location opened in August. It was spearheaded by a couple of licensees, but you can eat pizza every day, it says. Well, you can do that anyway, but this is a vending machine. You select the pizza you'd like. They've got six different options, and they range from $10 to $13. Once you place the order at the machine, the pizza's ready within four minutes. It comes out of the machine like a standard vending machine.

It brings it through a conveyor through the oven door. It'll stop here, and then the door will open, and the box goes into the oven. The lid will open. The robot arm underneath it lifts the pizza up into the oven. Said the company plans to put a total of 40 of these around Michigan in the next five years. Well, maybe we'll get one here.

It sounds like if you've ever watched Bar Rescue, and I watch it a lot. I've probably watched all of Bar Rescue. One of the things they do when people have a small kitchen is they have these little pizza cook. These things that cook a pizza in like no time. And I think they use those in these vending machines. It's like a four-minute pizza cook. It's crazy.

Yeah, they're pretty cool. How big is the pizza? i don't know i'm not sure it's a great question like a personal 10 to 13 dollars for a slice right say again is it 10 no no it's for the whole pizza man yeah that's like for a slice it's kind of no that that'd be sabaro prices uh of course you get a giant slice there. We go from mice to hamsters. Looks like a tap airbus. That's an airplane. Was unable to take off in Zores for four days.

That's Portugal because of loose hamsters. Yeah, over 130 of the rodents came loose from transport boxes, leaving maintenance teams trying to round them up before they start nibbling at the aircraft cabling. Well, you don't want that. In the four days following the mass escape, almost all the hamsters had been recaptured, but as of yesterday, 16 were unaccounted for. As the sense of urgency was increasing, well, it didn't say anything else, but yes, I'd be a little nervous to get on that plane. I would find out 16 of them unaccounted for, they could be eating wires while I'm in the sky.

Yeah, that is right. That's why spirits fall in bankruptcy right there. That's exactly right. That was a great one. That's in there. Attention station employees. Management has cut down your lunch hour to 23 minutes. No extra time will be given for pooping.

I've seen action figures of like horror figures like Jason, Michael, people like that. I always find it cool when they do action figures that are outside of the normal world of action figures.

I think it's a neat thing to collect, you know. Do you got to leave them in the box for them to be working? I do. I do. Yeah. Yeah, that's what I learned on 40-Year-Old Virgin, right? Yeah. You get it out and play with it.

All right, diesel motorhome sales, RVs, are going to be halted in several states at the start of next year due to a new rule from California about climate being enacted. So motorhome sales are now being prevented in California, Washington, Oregon, New York, Massachusetts, and New Jersey if they don't meet certain emission requirements based on regulations from California.

And they're pretty strict. They have to, well, they're almost undoable. Motor homeowners in the six states will not be allowed to register an RV that's not compliant with that regulation. The rule works by requiring manufacturers increase over time the percentage of zero emission vehicles they'll sell. Manufacturers who don't meet that benchmark are able to buy credits from those that do. That is so wild. That is wild.

I'm using up all mine. Here you go. Here's some greens. That is so wild, man. That is wild. I'm using up all mine. Here you go. Here's some greens. That's crazy. Manufacturers that don't meet it are able to buy credits. There are enough credits in the program well ahead of required dates that give the manufacturers flexibility needed to sell as many internal combustion engines as needed to meet the market demands. But, man, that's kind of crazy and you cannot have your car in sport mode it's against the law to have your car in sport mode

but nearly a quarter of them are considering skipping it altogether to avoid family stress. I've heard that. Have you? Yeah. family stress. I've heard that. Have you? Yeah. 64% according to this survey of Americans said election-related stress is impacting holiday plans. 23% are skipping Thanksgiving altogether. The survey looked at 2,000 people across 50 states, equally split men and women, adults aged 25 to 65 who do regularly celebrate Thanksgiving are surveyed. 25 to 65 who do regularly celebrate Thanksgiving or surveyed.

59% are worried about political disagreements causing tension at their Thanksgiving gatherings. Don't you just say shut up? All right. I'm eating turkey right now, bitch. Shut up. Take your plate in another room. 49% want to have a total politics conversation ban. 63% plan to set boundaries around political discussions to prevent conflicts. 52% have already had arguments with their family members over political differences.

Well, I'm sure you could. I don't want to argue with anyone about that. Not my family, not anybody. I'm not going to do it. To be honest with you i'm just not gonna um 52 have a family and relationship expert said there are ways to enjoy thanksgiving without politics getting in the way it's called cannabis oh that that does help gummies in the gravy baby gummies in the gravy. Tincture in there. Yeah. A little terping.

They say you should set some boundaries ahead of time. They also say make sure the news isn't playing on TVs. Oh, man. Who's playing the news on Thanksgiving? Who's playing the news on Thanksgiving? Football ball. Oh, man. Right. Yeah, the Cowboys are, you know.

Watch the Cowboys get their ass beat. Again. Again. Always. Always. Since the 90s, that's right. And if the conversation gets heated heated no one to walk away my question is why do you argue why would you now i guess if you have that one overbearing person

who just won't stop oh yeah who just keeps saying things you know but in general and they just keep saying the same stuff oh they just say you know they're just always that person who's inflammatory and stupid yeah but for the most part i'll just you know i'm gonna ignore most of it if it's because sometimes people just like to make little quips and they're just looking for you to bite on it i'm not i'm not biting on it now if you say something stupid to my wife or my kids then yeah i'll bite on it but but otherwise no i mean uh at thanksgiving is that something that's a problem for you guys is politics or anything like that where people argue and fight like with my family yeah honestly no my family what are you arguing with them i'm just trying to follow your lead i mean honestly with politics like we just look at it as we we vote and then

whatever happens happens we can't really change anything after that that's it we'll argue over football though you're right but with politics i mean honestly you have a vote that's your voice once it's over it's over i mean deal with it i mean you can't really change anything that's right thank you thank you uh yeah does your family argue at thanksgiving about anything like that god no i mean one my my family is so very small it's literally me my mother and my kid and we're all on the same page okay so it doesn't matter to argue about and we won't we probably won't even talk about it this is our first thanks Thanksgiving without my grandmother. Sorry about that. Yes, I appreciate that. We're going to do it one more time with the turkey and sides and everything. Yeah.

Just one more time, and then we may discuss where we're going to travel for next Thanksgiving. Interesting, interesting. Yeah, because their numbers are kind of down, so it may be something different. We've been small ever since. A new tradition. Yeah, our numbers have been small since, you know, probably before Benjamin was born, just because people started dying, you know? I love traditions in a family, and I especially like ones that you make uniquely to yourself, you know? Like, you know, when the kids were growing up,

we had a tradition where we would try to take them on a vacation every year somewhere. Now it may not be exotic, but it was a vacation that we all went together. Yeah. We went somewhere. And, uh, and that was really great because I was very opposed to it in the beginning. And I'll tell you, I don't know why i think because my parents were you know ass faces and they went on trips everywhere to the bahamas to mexico and they always left us right right we were three boys so i kind of understand but you know they come back and you get the crappy shirt or the seashell or whatever but i never went anywhere like that as a kid so you know the first time we were going to go somewhere and Laura was like, well, we need to take the kids.

And I'm like, why? My parents never took me. She's like, no, no, let's create memories with them. And after I thought about it, I went, you know, that is probably. And so we did. You know, we took them on trips and we've gone on cruises. And it's awesome. You've got little pictures that you can look back, and you're like, man, that was awesome.

I've seen you went to the cenotes. I did that, too. That is some cold stuff, man. They do not prepare you for that. They do not prepare you for that, bro. Oh, my God. I'm so glad you said that. The first time into it, you're up on the cliff, and like, jump into the water.

They don't tell you it's, like, 40 degrees, man. Yeah, where we went, it was super cold. Yeah, it's, like, 90 degrees hot and, like, crazy humid. But when you hit that water, it's, like, hmm. Yeah, let me tell you what he's talking about because you may not know what a cenote is. A cenote is a pool of water typically in a cavern or coming out of a a group of caves and so you see a lot of those like in mexico particularly where we went was tulum i went to mexico where the barrier reef was and they had a cenote that we swam in but uh like you i i was not prepared no uh and so i got in

that i i literally the only time i think in my life had a panic attack and that water is cold it was so cold i had a panic attack i was like freaking out and laura thank god did you survive we're here i made it yeah i made it but no she came up she said come on we're gonna be all right you know i don't do well with cold yeah i don't either like little bitty spaces some of the spaces got kind of small on us like oh yeah no and i don't i don't either like little bitty spaces some of the spaces got kind of small on us like oh yeah no and i don't i don't play that game you had to get down in like no in the water like that i'm like no didn't do that and not negative ghostwriter not having it was cold man i will sun on a rock like a lizard listen man i you you are not going to get me to

be one of those guys who get stuck in a cave spelunking. Oh, no. You're not getting that. You're never getting me on the news. I have seen decent. You know, I am out. I am way out on that. I will kill myself trying to get out of it. No submarines into the trenches or anything like that? Nope.

Nope. No, I don't want to be on the set. I'm good. I did tour the USS Razorback or whatever it's called, the submarine here. Even that made me feel a little nervous. It's very, very confined in there. I can't imagine being on a submarine that size. No, and knowing how far you're down and stuff.

No, and your roommate farting. God, man, that'd be horrible. I'd never leave, man. We'd just linger forever. My stepdad was on a ship, and he talked about getting crabs, and the whole ship would catch crabs, and they'd have a crab toilet. Like for real, like it's legit. I promise. That is hilarious. You know what, let me tell you what's funny. I was patient zero. Let me tell you something funny about that though that's funny. When I was in basic training. You got crabs? No,

super nice and i'm so thankful to her. And you can check her out on Facebook. You know, maybe you want something custom because she made it custom. Or maybe you want one of those. Hell, you can get one. Let me tell you where to go, though. It is, hold on. I'm going to be lying to you. I had it pulled up.

You get something with her possums on it. Tina, you got something with the possums on it? Oh, I forgot about this. She was saying about the possums. I want to talk about that. Don't let me forget. Okay. But go to Custom Swag and Sweets.

It's Tina at Custom Swag and Sweets on Facebook. And Manching Custom make these things. They're really cool. You mentioned the possums. She said she had possums as pets, which I think are awesome. But I didn't know they were awesome until a few years ago. We moved out to Boxsite and we're there for just a minute. We were going to try to buy this house. And in the end, we couldn't buy it, which I was super disappointed because just one of the most beautiful pieces of property I've ever seen in my whole life anywhere.

It looked like something transported out of Colorado or Arizona, giant cliff walls, beautiful blue water, just clear as it could be, you know, and we wanted to put a wedding venue there, but the home didn't have a proper foundation. So nobody would finance it. And so it, it, it killed my deal. But when I first moved there, uh, I, I was, I had a buddy there at the house and we were just hanging out and we'd gone outside and we're walking around doing stuff or whatever, because I was showing him the property, you know, and we came back into my screen and porch and there was a possum going crazy, hissing at us, you know, because when they get scared, they hiss. Now, at this time,

the only thing I knew about possums is they're out there it's not like i've done a lot of copious research i knew they were marsupials and had a pouch that was the beginning and end of what i knew and so it freaked me out uh because dude goes hey hey hey do you see that right he's right by he's right by you and i'm like oh my god and he just pulls out his gat he goes you want me to get us to get it get it and he goes bam and he killed it right i felt horrible after you should i do feel horrible still thank you look they got nasty looking teeth okay i thought it was gonna bite my ass what i didn't know is they're blind as yeah they can't see shit they can't they cannot see it yeah they can barely see it all if you see. They cannot see. I didn't know that. Yeah.

They can barely see at all. If you see one out in the daytime, they're probably sick. It's just a defense. They're hissing because they hear or feel something. They're scared. And that's all. It's not that they're mad and they're going to attack you. And then I found out they're hypoallergenic. They are.

Crazy enough, they're hypoallergenic. It's a hypoallergenic they are crazy enough they're hypoallergenic it's a hypoallergenic animal they are adorable they're also immune to two or three things they're immune to yeah uh i don't remember what it is stuff they eat stuff yeah we don't but they're actually great great pets they're super sweet super nice and i still feel guilty to this day uh for smoking him out like that but i didn't But I didn't know. I didn't know. And dude had the gat, you know.

And I was like, yeah, smoke it. Let's do it. Yeah. It was a flashback to my Southwest days. You know what I mean? You gotta get gangsta sometimes. Manners for men. When a woman explains how she feels, always respond

with, I hear you, and then fix it with duct tape. There you go. Now we can watch the movie. This has been Manners for Men. High five. Donkey punch. Did you know that possums and opossums are two different animals? No, they're not. Yeah, they are.

Come on, man. Stop it. Possums and opossums are different animals despite being both marsupials and having similar habits. My squirrels are marsupials. What is the difference? I don't know if I buy this. What's the difference? What is the difference? Yeah.

Okay. My squirrels are marsupials. They are. It said that possums, yeah, are related to gliders. Yeah, they got the little pouch. Yeah, like kangaroo. So possums have... Okay, let me look.

I think it's a fashionable thing, possum or opossum. Opossum. You know what it is? Opossums are from Ireland. Patty opossum. Patty opossum. But these are so ridiculous. Yeah, they're just... There you go. Patty O' Possum. Patty O' Possum. Yep. But these are so ridiculous.

Yeah, they're just... Okay, possums, yeah, blah, blah, blah, possum give birth at one young age at a time compared to many young. I think they're crazy. Okay, it's how many young they have and what they're called. That sounds bogus. Yeah, I don't know why there's an O in front of it anyway.

That sounds like some Hallmark shit, you know? It is, it's bogus. Yeah, they all get know why there's an O in front of it anyway. That sounds like some Hallmark shit. It is. It's bogus. Yeah, they all get roped into these things. Possum day, oh, possum day. Check this out. Have you ever, and probably you haven't, because if you did, you wouldn't be here. But have you ever had something super valuable you didn't know was super valuable, and maybe it was in your storage or

floating around the trunk of your car i wish yeah used as a stair somewhere yeah i wish i had a block of gold or something you should look around the oldest stone tablet known to hold the inscription of the ten commandments is set up to fetch about two2 million after it had been used as a paving stone in a yard. This is the second one of these stories we've had. Yeah, man, it's crazy. It's like one a week. 1,500 years old, the marble slab found in Israel in 1913. It was trodden for decades after that.

The late Roman Byzantine tablet was found during work on a new railroad line. It was then reused to pave the entrance of a home for 30 years, the sidewalk of a home. Wow. The 115-pound, 2-foot-tall slab was not thought to be special until somebody noticed that it had an inscription on it in Hebrew and translated it. Some random anthropologist comes over. That's right. The paleo Hebrew not even used anymore. And the stone was faced up.

It was walked over constantly making the, well, it's wearing out the inscription, right? But anyway, what may come as a surprise, this tablet is missing one traditional element from the Ten Commandments. Only nine of those from Old Testament Book of Exodus were featured on it, so one of them wasn't. The third one wasn't on there. Which one is that?

Thou shalt not take the name of the Lord in vain. Yeah, so that was a bonus later. So it sat there forever, and the people just walking on it, not thinking anything about it. Weird. I know, man.

Anyway. Anarchy in the studio today. It is. It's Monday. Like 100% phones are going off. Yeah, it's just stupid. Random noises, possums. This is terrible, and I don't know what's going on here, but in Iraq, they drafted

new legislation that lowered the age of consent for girls from 18 to 9. What? Shut up. Elvis Presley. Oh, he really did. That was an iPhone, Patrick.

It's got an Otterbox. It better not be broke. Go get it. You're going to regret that. He threw his phone because he cares about the lowering of the age of consent in Iraq. That's crazy, man. That's disgusting. How dare you? I mean, that's horrible, man. Did it break? Do people not know that you're on?

No. Is that Joe calling? It's Joe Exotic trying to call me again. Stop, Joe. I love you. I'll take your call in a minute. Yeah, I'll take it at 11. Anyway, Amnesty International's researcher said the proposed changes should be stopped in their tracks.

He said no matter how it's dressed up in passing these amendments, it would be closing a ring of fire around women and children yeah i agree i think that's horrible and there's no reason none in the world you cannot give me a single reason in the world where a nine-year-old can consent to anything no no no no no and and that is you know sometimes there are cultural gaps, you know, and it's hard to understand those cultural gaps like that because it seems. That's not a cultural gap. Well, I was going to say, is this beyond a cultural gap? Yes. Yes, that's ass kicking. Yeah.

Leaps and bounds beyond a cultural gap. I think so, too. It abounds beyond a cultural gap. I think so, too. Like, I can, I mean, I can, to a certain degree, I can, like, understand, you know, the differences in modesty and clothing and things like that. You know, how people feel about those things. I can understand that to a certain degree. This does not compute.

No, it doesn't. It doesn't. Gross. I mean, I don't know any reason ever that that would be necessary for any human being of any ilk of humanity, morality, dignity, anything like that. I always think that people with no kind of personality or no game or anything like that have to get these people when they're young and trap them. Yeah, grooming. Right, groom them. Grooming. Yeah. That's disgusting.

No, and whatever it is, I mean, it's legislation. Maybe it won't pass, but the fact that somebody's even put it up to be passed. Hey, a F-ton of people voted to keep slavery legal in California this past November 5th or whatever. Straight up. Well, I don't know. Was slavery actually on the ballot? It was. How? I'm not familiar with that. I whatever. Straight up. Well, I don't know. Was slavery actually on the ballot? It was. How?

I'm not familiar with that. I'm looking it up. I'm looking it up. Please do. I don't know of any current slaves in California, but again, it's California, so anything could be happening. I don't know. I'm not there.

Okay. California voters reject anti-slavery measure proposition six. And this was in this most recent one. What was it? It had to do with California. Okay. Oh, that's a ballot measure that would have banned forced labor in state prisons. Oh, in state prisons.

Okay. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Okay. But that's a fair question. Yeah.

So let's talk about this. You know what? It's a fair question. Yeah. So let's talk about this. You know what? It's a good argument to have. Should inmates be compelled to work and produce something or fractions of pennies on the dollar, which is what they typically earn, is that okay? Is that part of a penalty, you know know what you suffer for doing that they keep you productive teach you a trade or is it just greed and them using uh free or cheap labor to make money i think it has to do with that a lot of that but i do see where it kind of helps

like it's not just like putting them out there doing like gardening and stuff like that but they have like it might be but they have like mechanic shops like that if it's that but i'm 100 about teaching somebody a trade but if going to my thing say hey pick this right now if you're if you're just if you're just doing uh uh task making items that they're going to sell to someone else no or or just doing things like that i don't agree with that now if it is in pursuit of a trade of some kind that that's something we absolutely should be doing everywhere in any penitentiary is offering trade schools for people who can get out at some point when you go to jail that's all you're doing is you're

learning other trades but it's not good trades. No, you're learning from the other criminals how to be a better criminal. That's what it was. It is what it is. It's a thousand percent what it is. Anytime I see somebody getting help from jail, I'm always like, man, I wish I could have seen that.

When I was younger. What about you? Do you think the same thing I mean I'm along the same lines I think that um I think there's a lot of it that has to do with greed um and and the labor but at the same time I've been to the penitentiary and it's boring af just sitting there like there's stuff you know you want stuff to do um productive stuff to do all day yeah but I mean I think it's I think it's important to be able to equip these individuals

that have the opportunity to get out of the penitentiary with skills that will lower the recidivism rate. I think prison every day should be predominantly mental health help, counseling,

counseling group sessions, anything like treatment. Counseling, group sessions, anything like that. I think it should be job skills, job training. Yeah, I agree. But at the end of the day, it has to be prison, though. Well, no, it is prison.

No, I agree with that. It is prison. Look, you can't leave. No, no. You've got to eat what they make. You could still be assaulted. I mean, it's prison. Not like anybody. You can get diddied in i mean like anybody get diddied in there

i think the point with this proposition was that to take away um the potential for punishing these individuals if they are unable to go to work or they don't want to go work like if you don't want to go don't go but like if somebody's sick and can't go they shouldn't lose privileges or you know i you know i it's sometimes you've been to prison yeah yeah yeah um so i was actually locked up oh my agency number one seven five eight nine two okay yeah oh gee so uh i was uh in prison during covid oh really yeah so we were like locked down we're giving covid to people no i'm just kidding man i tried to smuggle it from china yeah i tried to smuggle it in with some spiders bugs like the pay whenever i was locked up was like 10 cents a year and there was all this talk oh they're gonna to raise it they're going to raise it to 11 cents a year wow i'm like are you kidding me um 80 to 90 percent of the inmates you're

in ditches yes with aggie going at it yep yeah now the question would be is that prison that kind of work because that is the kind of work that i might think a prisoner would do yeah not saying it's right but i'm saying is that the same as other work or is that i mean if you're just working ditches and stuff is that just prison life there's there's other jobs but like you have to meet different criteria for the job i mean right it'd right you can't have certain charges yeah you can be like the best inmate quotations on that one yeah you could do you know keep your head down do your time but if your charge is this they're going to be like no yeah right you can't be out in that area yeah i mean a run risk i remember talking to one of the uh sergeants there and uh i was like i mean

obviously you know there's people getting new tattoos every day why didn't adc just have like a like a uh tattoo job like yeah like right so it seems like a smart idea actually to have a job and apprentices yeah these guys that get out they can get out and make money i was told amazon higher sellings that was the first place that i applied whenever i got out i got denied in two weeks dang and i'm like okay so why are y'all telling me kind of jobs like like that's the biggest name that they dropped before you get out it's like amazon or walmart or target yeah not by all three of them really i was like are you are you serious wow yeah even with this

this this you can go there yeah yeah. Yeah. No, you can't. You know, and that is and I think they're working diligently to change this. But that I'm a big believer that that's a huge problem that we have is that, you know, we we set people up to fail. Right. You know, if you go, if you go and you do your time and you follow the rules and you do all that, when you come out the other side, in theory, you should be a fresh new citizen, so to speak, eligible for anything in the world because you have paid your price. Yes, you pay your debt. You pay the debt. That's what you do. And unfortunately, instead, we continue to penalize people. And that only keeps that circuit hot for people going back. Because if they can't get meaningful work, if they can't earn a living, then they're going to turn back to something illicit. Because why? They need to survive.

You think that if I needed to take care of my wife and kids, I wouldn't do criminal things if I had to? You're damn right I would. I would absolutely absolutely do it if that was the only way i could take care of my wife and my kid yeah i'll smoke fools whatever we got to do you know i mean that's how it goes down i mean food's in the house bills are paid right yeah but so it is a a real difficult thing and i think that while as you say prison still needs to be prison the problem you're there yes some people it prison still needs to be prison, the problem, you're there. Yes, some people, it's always going to be prison. I mean, you're a brutal murderer. You stab up eight, ten people, whatever.

Yeah, you're different. Okay, let's be honest. I'm sorry. I don't mean to be a jerk, but you don't need to be out. You need to be. I got friends like that that are institutionalized that do not need to come out no and that's fine we're cool but they don't need to be out on the streets right but there are people in there the majority i would say who probably ended up there

because of wrong turns and bad a lot of bad households bad lives growing up they didn't come up with what they needed. And so I think that we do a disservice to them by saying, okay, we're just going to lock you up with a lot of other people who's going to teach you the wrong thing and not teach you the right thing. Some of the coolest and like downest people that would do anything for you are a lot. I know they're locked up forever. You know what I'm saying? Yeah. Some of them, it's like, they just got a bad rip. You know what I'm saying? Like, well, I mean, look at it, just got a bad rip you know what i'm saying like well i mean look whatever the reason being you know i mean surely they they they committed a crime they had to go because they committed a crime and i understand that right and i'm sure they do too mostly uh

but but the problem is when they come out what we're not doing for them exactly and and that creates a cycle and look uh there there's no doubt that prisons make money based on the number of inmates. I think private prisons should definitely be done away with. I'm absolutely opposed to private prisons. That's ridiculous. Well, I don't think for-profit prisons are acceptable. Yeah, that's what I mean. I mean, I don't find that acceptable in any way.

It's just an incentive to take advantage and keep people there. Absolutely. it's just an incentive to take advantage and keep people there absolutely and and for you know the the bad blue you know because it's not they're not all bad but you know for them to majority yeah i know i know sneeze i'm sorry chad i'm with you bro we're on the same page but you know to um uh you know pull over a little bit more find a little bit more whatever it is you know, pull over a little bit more, find a little bit more, whatever it is, you know, pad them numbers a little bit because, oh, so-and-so from, you know, Malibu prison, not although passages prison in Malibu needs, you know, more inmates or whatever, you know, they're stockholders. You ever have cops that mess with you when you were younger?

Yeah. I grew up in Bryant. What do you think? What's up, man? Yeah. All they did was mess with me. Do you remember how big of a dick you were to me like i'll shake your hand we're cool but yeah it's hard as hell to do something

no i mean i've literally watched people get pulled over for one mile over yes come up to me and be like how you doing you're doing so i'm so glad you're doing oh my god it's no thanks to you right no you didn't help me i am never more safe as a driver than I am when I'm in Saline County, particularly Bryant. Oh, that's true. We are straight up doing 70. We're going to do 40. We are turning into the nearest lane. We're using indicators.

Yeah, no, and Bryant, they, listen, they. Those just don't play. Listen, I knew even as a kid, man, a dumbass kid. Yeah. Don't go up and down Reynolds Road like a fool because you'll get pulled over. You don't go to Saline County. No. Unless you live there, you don't go to KAMAC and you don't go to Sherwood.

That's three good things. Yeah, you're right. Three places you don't do. Coheed Consumer 13 says, what's the word about the Tiger King interview? Apologies if this has already been addressed. It is not. And I'm glad that you asked so here's what happened we were uh set to interview him on friday afternoon and uh he had to reschedule because he's in prison and uh anyway so sunday uh we had a weaving schedule and he he tried to call us but we come to find out that that

particular prison maybe all prisons i don't know he cannot call a toll-free number it has to be a local number so we had to go out set up a local number to come in the system so we're doing it after the show today today that interview happened so tomorrow it should air assuming nothing goes awry uh latasha said i want to come out come check out the break room. Come on, girl. Don't we owe her a prize anyway? Yes.

I keep harassing my man to go with me. Don't bring your man. Just you. He says he gets to break stuff for a living at his job. Exactly. What does he do? What's he do for a living? I'm guessing maybe construction.

Maybe construction. Yeah. Latasha said, I want a cup. Hey, reach out to him. Swag and sweets. Yeah, that'd be my guess. Latasha said, I want a cup. Hey, reach out to them, Swag and Sweets. Yeah. Jay said, I want to set up a break room appointment in December. What's the best way to do that? Visit us online at thebreakroomlr.com,

and you can select your package and your date and your time. And if you're not finding the date and time on there that you're wanting, email me at thebreakroomlr at gmail.com, and we'll see what we can do to accommodate. Boom. Just like that. Amanda's got packages. Here's a, here's a, now this helps explain things right here. John the Revelator said California was renting prisoners out for picking fruits and vegetables to corporate farms.

Oh. Yeah, no, that's a problem. Yeah, that is a problem. That's a legal pimp. prisoners out for picking fruits and vegetables to corporate farms. Yeah, no, that's a problem. Yeah, that is a problem. That's a legal pimp. Yeah, no, that's exactly right. You may not be doing sex, but you're going to pick these vegetables over here. I mean, you're selling your body. Are they making more than 10 cents a year, though? Well, I don't know what they were making, and I don't know.

They're not getting shit. In fairness, they may have wanted to go. They may have. I mean, to leave the prison and go. I mean, I wouldn't be mad about picking fruit. It's their once-a-year vacation. Oh, man, that's a tough one. But, you know, these folks feel like.

But I get it. Look, if they're renting them out, making this premium labor fee, and then the prisoners are getting next to nothing out of it, then, no, that's to me. At least fill their commissary. No, that's what I'm saying. I mean, come on, man. Get them some smoke, some good

deodorant, you know. Is there any prisons even allow smoking? Oh, man. Newport didn't, but I mean, we still did it. We still did it. Rebel. Oh, no. What's going on now?

I can't. It's Monday. What's wrong? It is Monday. Oh, the screen's's going on now? Monday. It is Monday. Oh, the screen's going out. No, it's not going out. God. Hold on one second. The struggle's real. Y'all talk.

All right. What's up? We'll look over. Hey, CJ. So, CJ, can you tell us what you went to the penitentiary for? I wasn't even going to say that. No? No, don't. Don't put him on the spot, man.

No, I mean like. Can we ask you? I'm actually okay with that because that's actually part of how I am, how I am now. Okay then. So before I got locked up, I had a pretty bad drinking problem. Yeah. I had, I think it was about two or three weeks in a row of just bad, bad things happened in my life.

And it all just, I'm not going to say came together, but, you know. Yeah. And so it was driving under the influence. I was also charged with hit and run because at the time i mean i was pretty bad drunk i don't remember hitting anyone um it's came back to me now and like i'm very regretful for being that bad drunk absolutely yeah um but those two charges i was on probation whenever the incident happened so that's revocation right there. The one charge I don't agree with is they got me for tampering with physical evidence because the car was in a garage because we were selling my grandmother's house at the time.

And the officer was like, oh, well, you hid it. No, I didn't. Oh, they being dicks. We had an open house. And the prosecuting attorney I had was also the uh i guess it would be my ex-wife's attorney when we got divorced so like she probably seen my name it's like yeah yeah like i seen her and i'm just like no contest of all charges that was probably the lesser charge yeah yeah yeah so uh but i mean i went uh I feel like I did well with my time there.

It gives you a lot of time to reflect on who you are, what you've been doing. And it is, to some extent, I have to imagine a choice of what you do with your time in there and what you do when you leave. Yeah, I mean, I got back to actually reading. Like, I used to be big into reading books whenever I was younger. Yeah. And I got away from that obviously growing up um but now it's like there's times that i could sit there on my phone scrolling and my fiancee be like what are you spending all this time on your phone i'm reading yeah yeah it's nice i mean it gets your mind active sure sure instead of just sitting

there like i'm gonna watch tv i can read i can learn um so i mean yeah like it helped me it sucked but it helped me right yeah right well it's cool that you're you know willing to share and be vulnerable like that how long were you there uh i was locked up for 18 months 18 months okay did you have to do anything when you got out considering the nature of your your charges did they require you to do any sort of in or outpatient no um so i did the think legacy program yep um and i went through that and they were actually very very happy that i went through that um and now i have till january 16th the next year and i'm done and i'm just like that's cool man i got i got really nervous a couple months ago because like you know normally you get the

little text about your fees or whatever. And I called and I was like, hey, I haven't got anything. What do I owe? And they're like, well, you're on annual. So you have, like, one more payment in December and you're good. And I'm like, oh, okay. Was it hard for you when you got out to assimilate back into society? I mean, you weren't gone that long, but, you know, was it still a challenge for you? I mean, for me, so, like, the people that know me, like, actually know me,

they know that, like, I'm very particular. Like, if I feel uncomfortable around something or someone, I'm just not going to be around it. So whenever I got out, like, that only amplified it, because now I'm not, like, clouded up my mind with alcohol and everything else like i'm seeing the things i want for myself and like i kind of made a plan like this is what i'm going to be doing yeah um and so like anyone or anything that wasn't going to help me be that person exactly don't talk to them i mean i got yeah a few acquaintances that I don't even talk to anymore. I actually had a conversation with a buddy of mine.

We've been friends for almost 25 years now. He lives in Missouri now. And I was like, dude, like, it's so awesome that we talk maybe two or three times, you know, every couple of months, if that. But we just pick it right back up I was like there's no way I can just not be your friend because whenever you're down you need someone to talk to I'm the first person you call vice versa yeah and then you met uh Don in January like I've known him 20 plus years and he's another person that like um I know he asked me for a dollar yesterday and like I texted him no and then I sent it to him on Cash App.

And he's like, you're an ass. I was like, I mean, I know if you had a dollar and I needed a dollar, like, I mean, you've sent me like 50 bucks before. So I'm not messing about. That's cool. I see the cross on your chest. Are you a religious man? And did that start when you got locked up? I'm just curious.

I'm just curious um i get asked that a lot if if i'm uh religious for me uh everyone has their own walk their own path to take agreed i don't look at it as a religious thing because even the bible says religion divides i look at it as my spiritual path of my walk yeah um one thing my mom if you're listening sorry mom you're not gonna agree with this uh i don't feel you have to go and gather in a church uh my grandmother i lived with her before she passed we used to sit up at night talking having long island teas smoking cigarettes just talking and i loved it i loved it and she told me she's like don't ever feel like you have to be an organized religion you could be at home with your bible you could be alone in your car and you can have your time with him you don't have to have

witness yeah that's true you know ultimately uh uh at the end of the day it's between you and your higher power whatever that may be yeah uh and and i don't think for any reason that a church is required as a matter of fact if you're gonna get biblical on it what the instructions were is to take the message out into the world yeah you know it's not to get in a box with a bunch of other people who think just the same and hang out with them it's go talk to other people and show them by your actions and by your own faith what could be. In theory.

Show them through your behavior, not coming and knocking on doors. The actual church is supposed to be a place where you bring stuff to help other people. You're supposed to bring in clothing. Yeah. Church is for fellowship. Well, that's why biblically it says you tithe 10% of your harvest. You know, everybody brought food or whatever resources together and shared that amongst one another.

And that's why it was so important in that time that everyone tithed because not everyone had a job like they do now and all that. And so everybody had their own role and they brought their own stuff and that's how it worked out, you know. It's changed. It definitely has changed but yeah i'm i'm not um an organized religion guy at all uh i am and i don't want to say anti-religion for me i am not for other people all right uh i if you're you know if that's your bag no i get your but whatever generates a spiritual wellness in a human being. Yes.

I, as long as it does not harm another human being, I don't mind. I don't judge you for that. Right. It doesn't matter to me. It's not my spiritual journey. Now, if your spiritual journey conflicts with my life and you try to, you know, you got to whoop my ass to achieve your spiritual wellness. I got a problem.

We got a problem. We've got a problem. Then we're going to have conversations. Yeah, but beyond that, no, that's your own journey, and I'm happy for it. But I don't like a lot of the overtones, and I especially don't like the money racket. No. I don't like the money racket, and I don't like the control. Like the Jeff, what was the name? The control and judgment.

Joel Osteen. Joel Osteen. Joel Osteen. Yes, that guy. There's a new thing that's happened probably, I think, in the past 20 years. And it happened because everybody started having a backlash in the 80s and 90s to all these televangelists who were almost universally all busted at some point for their wealth. Fraud. Fraud, this, that. Tax evasion.

So then somebody came up with what's called prosperity preaching, which is where that now your pastor can be rich because prosperity preaching, the Lord wants you to be prosperous too. I'm the example of that. That's bullshit. That is bullshit. That's straight bullshit. prosperity preaching the lord wants you to be prosperous too i'm the example of that uh that's bullshit that is bullshit that's straight bullshit if you're driving a mercedes and you're living in a gated community you got people while you have people in your church who are struggling to eat yeah struggling to pay their bills yeah you're a piece of shit you're not a minister of the lord

no you're not doing the lord's work you're doing your own work and you suck ass 100 period rolling around in a f5 how dare you cannot do that coming to your church wanting more money to buy a or updated plane yeah yeah that's all that that's some hosho no i'm not buying you any plane i'm buying you nathan son man i'm gonna tell you something man there's zoom zoom that boom boom you know i don't i i don't believe it i don't buy it i think that being humble and having humility is the only way that i'm gonna listen to someone tell me anything about faith show me service you come to me with all kinds of money and rings and you know these slick suits and cars i'm like no you're just you're just a a racket guy yeah this is all you are is a hustler you're just hustling with the lord that to me

and that's shitty that to me is using the lord's name in fact it's not about curse words aren't using the lord's name as a matter of fact the curse words we use don't even say the name of the lord they they really do mean it is using. It is. Yeah. It is exactly that. Y'all popping those Jesus fishes on your work truck or the John 3 16 or whatever. And that's fine if you are that fish.

Pretty bad. A woman arrested for shooting a Dallas singer after a concert this weekend. She admitted it. They say she watched the whole show. Was it a baby daddy? Got an autograph in line and then shot her. Police responded to reports of the shooting on Saturday before 6 p.m. The singer, Jada Arnell Thomas, 26, shot in the chest while signing autographs following a performance at the Academy of Arts and Letters in downtown Dallas.

I'm guessing she didn't make it. I don't know. The 26-year-old Micah Williams was feet away from her in the autograph line. 200 people inside the concert hall. Multiple witnesses told police they saw Williams shoot Thomas, then take off. They chased him on foot. Curtis King, the founder, said, I went into a state of emotional rage.

Everything was a blur. I went out the door and said, where'd the lady go? And they pointed in the direction she went. I saw her through the glass door, so I just started running after her. Officers arrested Williams in the hotel lobby. Police say a handgun found in her purse. According to the arrest warrant, she admitted to it. Williams also claimed the victim harassed her last year, but they weren't able to verify that. Investigators are unable to interview the victim. She's still in the hospital. Okay, well, I'm glad she's not dead.

Yeah, she's not yet at least. They're beefing up security. Anyway, that's crazy, man. She had a funny eye. Did you see that? Who did? It's always the funny eye.

I didn't have that when I got it. I learned that Mike Tyson bought a tiger from Joe Exotic back in the 90s. That is so cool. I will talk to him about that. And that he wanted to fight a silverback. Yeah, that Mike Tyson wanted to fight a silverback. I would have paid to watch that.

I would have paid. How delusional was he at that point? It was cocaine. It was cocaine days. I don't know. Mike Tyson, cocaine and a silverback. Mike Tyson on PCP against

I mean, I could might look the other way. I'm sorry. That's funny because, you know, that seemed to be. Well, I get to because, you know, that seemed to be the answer that everybody was. I'm the only person who was like, no, I don't care how much they're making.

I can't do it. That's for me, not for everybody else to see. I want somebody to take care of me, man. Yeah, thank you. Well, now that's a different story.
