222 Minutes hops on to discuss this weeks headlines. Bluejays, bank heists, Trudeau doing Trudeau & a new idea "limos from Regina to North Battleford" Let me know what you think Text me 587-217-8500

Okay, welcome to the Tuesday mashup. Thank you, Tews, for hopping on, as usual. I keep coming at you from unusual places. You know, the last time I was in, well, not even not the last time, two times ago, maybe. My memory is fading on me here as holidays blend into one another. But the hotel storage room where I almost passed out, I got told that was our best one. I don't know about that, but I was like, literally I'm dying here. Anyways, fast forward.

And now I'm sitting at the lake. And I tell you what, I like this setting way, way better. Well, that's too bad. I kind of like the idea of having you a hot seat. I did have a little sweat going to places where people don't like sweat to go. Anyways, that's a side story. Shall we, shall we, shall we begin? Sure.

Where do you want to start? I mean, where to begin with this week, right? Well, let's start with one. the vegan burger hype for tasting like human meat wins award. You know, I just want to say this. I got my YouTube channel removed for covering the freedom convoy. Okay. And the last time I checked, cannibalism is not something we want to be proud of.

And yet it's winning awards and getting talked about in the New York Times, New York Times. Cannibalism has its time in place. Some recent books, films, and shows suggest that the time is now. Are we fucking insane, Toos? Are we fucking insane? We're a little bit insane. Most of this is hype. So I feel like this started off with a fairly clever marketing campaign,

which is kind of a first from vegetarians and vegans. But they said, oh, well, instead of doing that age old, oh, our stuff tastes just as good as meat and it fucking doesn't. I mean, remember the time I accidentally ordered a whopper and you could immediately tell. just from the first bite that that wasn't fucking meat in it. And then so they're like, oh, well, this tastes just like human. Because first of all, who's going to correct them? And secondly, it's something that's going to garner, you know, it's going to drum up a lot of interest.

And I think that it has worked probably because we've got two articles. It's popularizing cannibalism. Popularizing. I don't care if they're wrong or right. The guy literally says, the guy from the company says, our mission is to change how people eat, really, by thinking human flesh tastes delicious. Punch me in the face. Punch me in the face.

Worst case scenario, these people are providing a, albeit shitty, alternative to cannibalism. They're not saying eat human. They're saying if you like eating human, you're going to love this. Which probably is not a big stretch considering how fucked up vegetarians are. Hey, shocking news. I know this is going to shock you. The CBC wastes money. Go figure.

So this is, I bet you probably every week we've got at least a couple articles from Blacklocks. And they're pretty much the best people in the game in Canadian media. And so they did an access to information because that's the only way you can get information about the CBC. Even though it all comes out of our pockets, you've got to fight tooth and nail to actually find out what goes on behind the curtain. and they paid out a thousand thirty four yearly pandemic bonuses worth $30 million to, I can't, 300 or 3,000 people or, oh,

it was $30,000 per on average is what it was. 143 executive directors, including eight directors of finance, nine directors of legal services, and 26 directors of technology and infrastructure. One former executive put it this way. He got a yearly. bonus of 80K.

And I'm telling you, in a dying, dying industry, that doesn't make a whole lot of sense. And normally I'm pretty, I think you know me by now. Normally I'm like, I know, like the numbers, this and that. This doesn't make any sense. The CBC is literally like on its way out, in my opinion. It is a dying breed. It's been up for decades. The only reason it's still here is why?

Because of government bailouts. I mean, we all know this. And the government bailouts are. paying top dollar yeah they're not saying okay look you guys suck so here's enough money to get by they're saying you guys suck here is as much money as you want let us know if you need more because they got an additional 21 million dollars a few months ago and they got another 35 million dollars which is peanuts compared to everything else but that's still a fair chunk of change and it just it never ends and the cbc just fucking die already go away honestly you've got gang green fucking

cut it off. You know, talking about giving people money, bags of money, how about former uniform leader Jerry Diaz, pressured assistant to drop his ethics complained against him, a report says. Well, we've touched on this a couple times, and there isn't a whole lot in terms of big developments, but you'll remember a few weeks ago when we first started talking about it, we were speculating as to how this money exactly showed up and how it was, you know, we were thinking it was something modern and he had to funnel it through an expense account or something like that.

It comes out in this article that allegedly, it was just a shopping bag full of fucking cash. And so he tried giving half of it to his assistant who presumably found out about it and he needed to shut him up. So he said half of this is yours. And when the guy didn't take it, he just put it in a filing cabinet, locked it and said, here's the key. And so that's how Unifor ended up with the cash because we were also asking, well, I mean, if it was a bribe that was paid,

how did Unifor get all the money back? And so, yeah, it was just a shopping bag full of cash that was sitting in somebody's office. And Jerry Diaz is saying, okay, well, this investigation isn't legitimate because I didn't take part in it. I wasn't involved in this investigation. But here's the thing.

Like if you murder somebody and then eat them or whatever, else. You can't just be like, well, the cops didn't call me in to do forensic. So obviously, this investigation's invalid. Throw your hands up, piece out, bitches and walk out of the courtroom. But it's just, it's grasping at straws. And apparently he's been, he's been trying to kill trip people like this is, we can't destroy the union over this. And we need to think about what's best for the union. And honestly, this is the union in a nutshell. Alberta Court of Appeals rules in favor of Pastor Erler

Paul Pololowski. I hope I'm saying that right. And orders AHS. You're from Saskatchewan. You can't even handle it like that. And reimburse his fines. They ruled that the injunction against him, his arrest, his jail time, the censorship order, and fines against him were, can you believe it illegal?

You know, I think. For some reason, yeah, it's interesting because I've been kind of wondering if at least the courts are going to have. some common sense here with this stuff, or if it's just going to be all straight bullshit. It looks like there's some stuff with Tamara Litch that's unfolding right now where the judge is basically out of patience with the prosecutor. And it just seems like maybe some cooler heads are prevailing here. Because, I mean, you may recall that this is the guy who got arrested on Deerfoot,

like the freeway. Yeah, yeah. Listen, I think all of us have a pretty good recollection of how many times this guy got arrested, how he went down, how, you know, don't people are arguing while he's just you know he's being a little extreme and that and then and you're going here's a guy who's a pastor of a church you know religious freedoms all that good stuff and i mean he's from the eastern block he grew up with this stuff right and i mean he's he's one of these guys where he didn't push he pushed back and as far as i'm concerned you're it if you're pushing back

there is nothing wrong with pushing back harder. Well, anyone who pushed back hard to is literally took it on the chin for a while. Like, I mean, Tamara Lange right now is a prime example. It's literally illegal in Canada to be mischievous. Think about that. Yeah. And so you go back to it's good news. I think this is good news that although, I mean, the article goes on to say that.

that the taxpayer is going to foot the bill for H.S. And blah, blah, blah. You're like, okay. But you know what? As a taxpayer, at least we're getting right. I mean, it is taking us an incredibly long time to go, okay, that was wrong. Even while it's happening, all of us are going, well, not all of us, but a lot of us are going, this is wrong.

Like this makes zero sense. I'm happy to see some of the things starting to maybe turn to corner. I don't know. I want to see repercussions. How about, yeah, repercussions would be good. I agree. I actually agree with you. Repercussions on the other side would be nice.

How about this? Trudeau is trying to push through covering up so that nobody can see where his flights are going. And I mean, right now I'm extremely thankful. We get to see where he's flying because then you get to point out some of the stupidity that he is. I mean, we don't need much. We don't need much. But knowing where he's flying has seemed to be extremely beneficial to the common person to be like, this is our leader?

Like, this is what he's doing? Well, the funny thing is, okay, so Canadian Taxpayer Federation, Franco Terazano, he said, why do reporters need to use flight trackers to figure out where the prime minister is in the first place? Right. Because that's how he got busted going to Tafino. He didn't post an itinerary. He just said, I'm taking the day off. Peace out, bitches.

And then the flight tracker showed that his plane, CanForce, was flying. flying to Tofino. You're like, well, there's not really anything going on as far as reconciliation. It just seems to be some big waves. And he's been caught a few times with stuff like this. The most recent one was he's flying around BC and he flew something like 30 miles. Like the leg of the trip was 30 miles and he couldn't be bothered to deal with traffic. For a guy who purports to take climate change so seriously, I mean, he flew back from Florida.

he was on vacation, flew back from Florida to Ottawa, which was round-trip 1,400 liters of fuel. Can I just say this? I can't believe I'm about to do this. I don't know if I should do this. Can I just defend Trudeau for one second? Can I say that out loud? Can I say that? No, you can get somebody else on the show.

I'm about to get nuked out at the lake right now for saying that. He isn't the guy that's dictating a 30-mile flight. Justin Trudeau. They could have been like, you think he's yelling at the guys for flight? flying or if we're not having a vehicle? Or do you just think that he's got some overpaid dude going? By the way, we're going to fly the 30K.

Everybody who fucking steps in and tries to check him gets fired or kicked out. Have you ever heard of Jody Wilson-Rabel? Yeah, if there was a Jody Wilson-Rabel pilot, he would be writing his own tell-all book at this point, right? This is totally him doing it. I think it's happened far too often. I feel like I've been at the late. competitive unpunished behavior.

And I'm in a good mood. Can I say like I can't believe I uttered that sentence. That may get me roasted. That's fair. That's fair. Trudeau, uh, go fly a kite back to it. All right. Tews,

is that fine? Can I, can I, can I skip over that? Yeah, by the way, we're having auditions to replace Sean next week. How about this?

You know, you pointed this out to me and I don't know why I didn't think about this. NHL insiders are saying players are fleeing can, uh, Canadian teams because of COVID-19. restrictions. You know, I was bugging you about Johnny hockey and then I mean literally within a week,

Ketuk gets traded to Florida. I mean, the Calgary Flames are sinking faster than the Titanic, although they're sinking faster than the Oilers did in the conference final. Oh, did we get by somebody to get there? It's too far back to remember. I think we did.

Anyways, what they're talking about is players, we're seeing it with the MLP, MLB players right now not wanting to come up. you know, if you're unvaccinated, that is. They're like, well, no, I'm just not going to go play the, you know, the Blue Jays, right? And now what's come out with the hockey players is a bunch of the players are like, I'm getting the hell out of Canada because I don't like all the BS that's going on.

And one of the things that's said in the article is it's talking about the lockdowns and restrictions and et cetera, et cetera. But you read that and you start thinking about it. And you're like, yeah, that makes a ton of sense. Like, honestly, you're like, we've talked about how other people. professionals because I mean they are professional athletes right other professionals geologists geometrists geophysicists you name it have been moving to greener pastures and let's let's be honest every fucking pasture except for north korea is greener at this moment in time and so anybody

who could move will move like goddrow took less money to play in Columbus I know after I was teasing about i'm going to Columbus over calgary now I'm like Ah, mud on my face. Because when you think about it, you go, maybe that's not 100% of the reason, but it's definitely a factor. Like, it is definitely a factor what's going on in this country on why Johnny Hockey isn't playing. Why, you know, Kachuan wanted to get paid big bucks. I don't think we have to argue about that. But at the end of the day, he goes to Florida.

How many? I mean, yeah. I mean, it couldn't have to go better team in the Calgary Flames. We had two good people and you took the both away from his Trudeau. You fucked up everything in my life. I won't defend Trudeau on that one. I mean, that's a nice change. I look forward to the comments tomorrow.

Government agency updates the definition of white people. Can we? This just seems to. Yeah. So this is the immigration refugees and citizens. ship Canada. So this is a branch of the Canadian government like everything else this country is. And so they said that white people are defined as belonging to any of the various peoples with light-colored skin, usually of European origin. The term has become an indicator less of skin color and more of unquestioning acceptance of the legacies and ongoing practices of white supremacy and colonialism.

Yeah. So if you're not saying that we're just a colonialist society, built on white supremacy, you are now white. So, I mean, this is Joe Biden's thing. Yeah. Yeah, the term has become an indicator less of skin color and more of an unquestioning acceptance of the legacies and ongoing practices of white supremacy and colonialism. Which is totally the kind of thing a white person would say.

I have to reread that just a second time just to let that sink in even in my brain. because some smart person or person who thinks they're really smart actually wrote that. That was not written by a smart person. I can tell you that right now. Here's the thing is I want, it's the same thing like if I hire somebody for a company. I want them to do the job that I'm hiring them for. I don't want to throw their own personal bullshit into it.

And I don't know why we're not treating politics the same way. You want good governance. Basically you do just enough to keep the wheels turning and then back the fuck off. You don't start redefining fucking words and doing all this stupid diatribe. How about temperatures are expected to reach or surpass 30 degrees in parts of Canada? Well, this is really important. And we absolutely needed to cover this article by CTV. And it actually came under their climate and environment tab.

And so, yeah, basically, I mean, everything they said in this article is absolutely correct. in the in the next few weeks of this this I like how you're getting soft spoken here yeah carry on season in Canada you got me sucked in the the temperatures are going to reach upwards of 30 degrees which is almost a third of what it would take to boil water and this is happening right before our eyes seriously people what the fuck is wrong with this world that we need to report on 30 degree temperatures. Come on. Did you read, did you, did you watch the, the actual video of the lady

interviewing the guy? No, no, I tend to. Oh, you didn't watch that. I'm like, oh, two sent me, you know, for the listener, me, you know, two sends me a bunch of articles. I sit there out of read it. And one of, this one had a, you know, like the actual, so I was like, oh, I clicked on

on CTV news. I, I watch it. And they got an expert on of whatever background, doesn't matter. An expert on summer and he goes he go they go uh 30 degrees and he goes yep 30 degrees um you know it's getting real hot people need to be you know cautious in the weather this hot i'm like well that makes sense yeah okay uh and then he goes you know it's not the record high though uh for this for this time here like it's not the record high but he's about to talk about this being horrendous and and

he doesn't even go on to say that may he just He talks about how... Imagine having a serious conversation about how dire fucking summer is. I tell you what I'm going to do. What I'm going to try and do, twos, I'm going to try and get the guy on the podcast. I've been wanting to do a little bit about climate change for a while now. I would love to have a few climate tile just people come on and tell me why the planet's going to burn. And then I'd like to have a couple of the other side.

Certainly no different than we did with COVID. You should talk to Laura Nash, the Zero Waste Countdown podcast. Okay. Yeah. Me and twos will talk after the show. That's a side chat. How about the Js? No, we're going to leave that to the end. I'm going to leave the Jays to the end. Let's do police identify victims, gunmen, an armed bystander, and Indiana mall shooting. That's the CNN headline. And here is the headline from citizen free press, which is, I don't know, some random American kind of smaller outlet. I'm not even really sure.

But their headline is Greenwood Hero is a freaking stud, fired 10 rounds, neutralized shooter in 15 seconds. So you've got to get halfway through the CNN article to even hear about this. But this guy had his open carry license. He was in the mall getting ice cream with his girlfriend. Some dude comes out of the bathroom, just firing away. He whips out his gun and from 40 yards with the 9-mill, shoots them eight times out of 10.

well and actually they also say in the CNN article to give them you know like once they started talking about it yeah yeah eight paragraphs down while he's shooting he's telling people to leave and the police are like that's like he was legit right like he's literally you need to get out it bang bang bang getting the guy from like across the way anyways well yeah and then well I don't know how the cops in the states really have much room to have anything to say about at one way or the other. When the footage came out from that school shooting in Texas, you had the guys sit in there doing hand sanitizer

while they're waiting to go in and storm the place. Come on. Well, I tell you what, the reason why this pops up on our show, I think, is because you had the school shooting where literally they waited 45 minutes

while kids are dying, right? And then you have this guy in a mall where CNN doesn't want to, I'm not saying praise. I'm just saying like we can say like wow instead of waiting a citizen acted in the right way

and and stopped a lot of bad from happening did you ever see that one the video clip of that church in Texas where a guy came in and tried to shoot the place up and like eight people pulled out their guns and he just got shot from 100 different directions yes

I hope honestly if you're planning on doing a shooting, just do the one and leave us out of it. But if you're not going to take that advice, go to a place in Texas, go to a church in Texas. They would be really happy to see you there. It would be great.

Yeah, please, please don't shoot anything. That's my advice. We, F, the wef, they suggest blotting out the sun to fight climate change. This is not like 300, or they say

the arrows will blot out the sun well we'll fight in the shade. That's correct. That's correct. I'm glad we're 300 fans here. Their idea is to form a raft in outer space to reflect the sun's energy

and that's pretty much it. It goes into a bunch of different things. Yeah. So this is the exact plot of an episode of The Simpsons, which I mean at this point everything's a plot of The Simpsons. So it doesn't really matter that much. But he wants to, here's the thing that nobody's maybe really thinking of unless they're kind of geeky.

But in order to do it as energy efficiently as possible, this thing, which is going to be the size of Brazil, they want to put it at a Lagrange point between the Earth and the Sun. So that's where the gravity from the Earth being smaller but closer is equal to the Sun being larger, but further away. And you've got to go fair ways out of the orbit. to get to that. And the thing about it is, is by the time you get out that far, that thing that's the size of Brazil

is going to cast a very big shadow. Like, this isn't just blotting out something the size of Brazil. This is probably going to blot out the whole planet and just filter it. You know what scares me about this? All of it? Well, I was sure.

Just that they believe they're that smart. And that by doing this, the world is going to become this amazing place because of it. None of them have ever seen snow piercer. In literally the article, it's like, it talks about Bill Gates putting up a bunch of balloons to spread a bunch of materials in the atmosphere to try this little thing. And then he gets harassed for it because they're like, well, what about the repercussions? He's like, oh, I guess I didn't think about that. It's like, you didn't.

Of course, he didn't think about it. I guarantee you he's got like eight different bunkers set up in various parts around the world. It's insane twos that nobody's thinking about it. God. It's like, well, we're thinking about it. What the hell do we know? We're just the lowly, we're the drudges. What happens if you blot out the sun? And all of a sudden, yeah, climate doesn't change as much or will it? Because it probably will. And then we'll be like, oh, shit, we fucked up. And then we're sitting there and we can't do fuck all about it. This is the plot line from a 90s Superman comic, literally.

So you think they're reading comics going, geez, that's a good idea. Maybe we just try that. Probably Phyllis gave him a few pointers at some point, I'm guessing. I wish we had the gauntlet and we could just snap it. But me and you having it, we'd probably get a lot of guys. Honestly, if I had the infinity gauntlet, I would just go around flipping people off. I wouldn't even snap. Premier Mall. And the SaaS party, they hiked taxes while private jetting around the province.

Well, there's a couple different parts we could start with. There was in January, Mo and a couple of other people chartered private plane to go to the northern part of the province, which isn't exactly clear. I'm guessing LaRange or, you know, somewhere up past May. Sure. But 16 grand. You can get a float plane for a lot less than that. I was in January, so it's got skis, but whatever. And then in March, Harpower, who is the Minister of Finance in Saskatchewan,

for the Saskatchewan party, rented a plane to take her, well, it's 400 kilometers, the article says. That's probably roughly about right, if you're taking the iPod news going from North Battle, or from Regina to North Battleford, which isn't really that far of a drive. Like you could have hired a limo. You could have, you could have gotten a tractor, a convoy. You could have hired a convoy for less than that. Yeah, see, the northern one, I'm like, whatever, not in like, whatever, like, I don't care. just like, hmm, I got to think about that.

North Battleford to Regina is less than five hours. So I got to assume it's like four, maybe even three and a half, depending who's driving and everything else. Well, I mean, you just go straight up to Saskatoon and then yeah. And what was another eight grand? 7,000 and change, wasn't it? 78 and change. Yeah, so almost 8,000.

Think about that. $8,000. And you think she even knew? you know like oh well she she knew but the problem is this is why i don't like the uCP is because if if you've only got one viable option to vote for a party eventually they stop giving a shit because they're like what are you going to do vote for the idiots you know the nDP yeah what are you going to do vote for socialists we're going to do whatever the fuck we want and we're going to vote for us because if you don't it's just going to be bad news for you and then eventually it's going to get

to the point like it did in 2015 in alberta where people like you know what it's a Bad idea, but you guys are fucking dicks. But we're going to push the button. Anyways, don't push this button. Like my two-year-old son. Casey, do not push that button. We're in the elevator. You know, there's the help button.

He's like, every time he gets in, it's rated head eye. He's like, I'm going to, I'm going to, no, every time he gets in. And finally, you're not paying attention. Boom, it gets hit. All hell breaks loose. And you're like, damn it. That's what happened. That's what you're saying?

What happens when he pushed the help button? I've been, I get where he's going. coming from because I want to push that button everything I hear it. Honestly, I assume you have to hold it for a while. It dinged a bitch a bunch, like and then it stopped because I assume we caught him quick enough. I hope.

Okay. I hope, you know, like a loud noise. I scared the shit out of him and me and his mother. Anyways. Well, he probably learned a lesson, man. Like if confetti fell down from the roof, he'd probably push it every time. I don't know. He was totally spider-monkeying it

with no life jacket onto the pontoon today after we repeatedly told him not to do that and after he did the splits in between it like two times and let me tell you scared the crap out of us all over again so i don't know if he's learning any lessons other than how to push his parents buttons that is an important lesson for kids to learn and that's the that also bakes you know that that caters to the importance of having a big family so you have spares you think you know just to hold on to this before uh we go to the happy moment of the week you think with politicians because Like, I know they're all not piece of shit.

And I know everyone would love to just think every politician piece of shit. You think they just go, I've earned this. And so I'm going to take the private plane instead of driving the 400K. Probably at some point. And then they're probably going to say also like it's a drop in the bucket. Who cares? It's like when you stay at a hotel, when you were staying at that hotel, did you use more shampoo than you would use at home? Did you use that whole thing and just and the conditioner?

Right? Did you just put stupid amounts of shampoo and conditioner in your hair? Right? Because it's not your shampoo and it's not your conditioner. So what you're saying is we have a bigger problem than just that that's a societal problem. That's inherited wealth. Definitely. And so you got to have checks in place.

You've got to have something like an alternative to them that isn't a bunch of socialist schmuck. Can you imagine if we choose we got into politics? And it's like, okay, your flight options from Regina to North Battleford is you take a private plane. Now, the tax payroll cover four grand. Let's just cut it in half. Okay. But you have to cover the other chunk of it. Or we will give you a

limo full of beverages that will take you there and back. I'd be like that rate there would cost less than a four, a quarter of it. I could fit that whole limo full of my hardest drinking

buddies. And we could just get hammered the whole way there. you know, stop it. Stop at Davidson for a pass. Stop a Kansas for a pass. Can you imagine if all of a sudden in politics, Regina to North Battleford. Just the booze cruise.

You get a limo. You get a small town booze cruise where you're making pit stops at all of them. By the time of you're there, you're so floor-licking drunk. You'd have everybody involved in politics. Everybody's like, we could do what now? I can't wait for that North Battleford trip. Now, one final thing. It sucks because I'm totally changing the tone.

of it here. But in the interview that she gave afterwards, she gave a presser. And she said, it's just the cost of doing business. No, the fuck it is. It's the cost of doing business with people who forget how much things cost. I agree with that. Okay, happy moments. Happy moments. I'm going to start with the Jay's beating the Red Sox, 285. Did you watch any of the highlights? Yeah, I did. Yeah. Did you see the infield grand slam? Yes, I did. did you see just the look on everybody's faces like included the guy that the ball went right over he just looks back and he's just like fuck this i guess i'm gonna go play triple a

and the fact did happen at fenway uh yeah this this wasn't even a home game either no and it's not as though like fenway's got some weird stuff it's got that fence along or that that ladder along the back wall and that causes some weird bounces here and there and then you got the green monster in left fields yes yeah i'm i'm trying to picture am i you know at my stage left or or left field right um and so i it's it's not exactly easy to just put on a clinic and that's exactly what they did and the red sox fans are absolutely rabid they they they love that team oh blue jays that was you never want to

honestly as an athlete I never want to see a score that big 285 like you know to me 145 is a bad enough thumping 25 would be a decent football score oh man 285 is a thumping this is why we need to bring back the Expos

how about the other happiness I'm trying to set myself up for an awesome joke here bear with me one goddamn second okay why the Expos well because if we brought back the Expos in Montreal all, they would have a mersey rule.

We should have just gone to the next story. Go to the next story. Okay. Here's your final happy moment, okay? Everybody everybody fantasizes about pulling off the heist of a lifetime. The one that's planned, you know, you just

go to, go to the movie heat, right? De Niro, Patino. Kilmer. Oh, man. Like that movie, who goosebumps. That, that many of them. The Italian job. Hell, even Endgame was a time travel heist comic book movie, which are

my three favorite movies all mixed into one. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. The Italian heist wasn't nearly as good as heat. It just wasn't. Heat was legendary. I'm just naming the perfect score then with De Niro and Edward. Norden. I mean, there's so many good

ones. Like all of the Oceans movies that didn't have women in them, for example. Oceans 11 was top notch. After that, they get precedingly bad. Yes. I haven't seen the one with the women. I apologize to all the ladies listening. I just haven't.

Honestly, unless one of them were in the movie, I don't think they can be offended. Sure. How about mystery shrouds, colossal Brinks heist at a I, our interstate five truck stop who stole millions and gems and gold?

And it was a flying J truck stop. I would have never thought. I don't think anyone. Truckers win again. You know? Oh, Once again, everything's coming up. This is probably the convoy. This is like this.

Tamara Litch got herself arrested so she'd have an alibi for this. Yeah. To steal all that. We just pieced together. Yep. True crime podcast with Sean and Deuce. Yeah. So this was in Los Angeles or, you know, L.A. County or something like that.

This Brinks truck stops at a truck stop for 27 minutes. And in that 27 minutes, they sneak in, get a whole bunch of jewels. and chunks of gold and everything else, get back out again. And I couldn't exactly tell. They said 10 million is what they reported. And then a bunch of people commented, like experts put in their thoughts,

even from the industry and said, no, it's going to be 100 million. Easy 100 million of diamonds and rubies and watches. So it was 10 million insured, but apparently the cost to insure things for travel is really, really high. I'm not sure why. It's not like they're getting ripped off all the time.

And so there was presumably a whole bunch of uninsured cargo in there. And so Brinks says, oh, it was only 10 million because that's all the insurance claim for and everybody else looks at it. It says, you assholes know full well that they don't insure the whole cargo. You're just trying to limit your bad exposure. So somebody out there pulled off the height of a lifetime. Nobody knows who. Why was the truck stopped for 27 minutes?

Like I get the fact that it's close to Mexico. maybe they stopped in for a bad burrito somewhere up the road. 2 a.m. But truckers going along. They decided to stop in. It was the lot, the lot lizards. There was,

it was a lot lizard honey pot, Sean. A lot lizard honey pot. You know, it's funny about lot lizards. It was only, everything. Three years ago, I was like,

what the hell is a lot lizard? And then I got told at like, probably two in the morning at a, a well-intoxia. I was like, oh my God. That's hilarious. Anyways, Lotless. And then you became a trucker. No, I, then I went to the Flying J. No, I did not. But I tell you what. So you got your BJs and your HJs and your XJs and you got your Flying Js. That's right. It's right. Hey, I tell you what, this is being fantastic. Sean reporting to you live from the Tuesday mashup here at the lake where we about lot lizards and the greatest heist of all time at a flying jay truckers win again god i love you
