Dana Lash's absurd truth podcast, sponsored by Keltec. It's his life mission to make bad decisions. It's time for Florida Man. So a naked Florida man was accused of burglarizing a home. Thank heavens they clothe him before his mugshot because nobody wants to see that. This guy's supposed to be 24. Putnam County. deputies arrested a Keaton Mercier for burglary and on a warrant for aggravated battery by strangulation.

He had a previous conviction. When deputies arrived on the scene, the 24-year-old had put on a pair of breeches, a pair underwear, but he refused to leave. I mean, he came home Sunday evening, found a naked burglar right inside his house. He called the cops. And so this Mercia guy was taken to the hospital because he had the guy, he attacked the homeowner. and he had to be taken, well, he had attacked a previous homeowner. He had to be taken to the hospital, treated for cuts on his arms and legs, that he had sustained from breaking into the home. They also suspect that he was pretty high as a kite on drugs.

They found all kinds of glass pipes, you know, that were in his possession. So he was arrested. Can you imagine, man, this is why guns were invented, by the way. I ain't going to mess with no naked man in my house, breaking into my house. Nope, that's, no, not going to happen. also a now okay this is one I wanted to talk about yesterday we were in at a time

so a Florida father was dealing with his son being bullied and apparently the son was being bullied by another classmate who happened to be a girl and so what ended up happening and it's all on video little girl was bullying the guy's son

this Florida girl was bullying the Florida man's son and she was doing it right in front of the dad like she was running her mouth in front of other adults because she knew that she was going to be protected this is where where the chick card comes in right uh so she was like calling them all kinds of invectives and the dad slaps her right on video of course you know they called they they they call the police the dad goes uh I mean it was battery and he said was it the right thing to do this is why boys need sisters also that girl needs her ass beat by her parents and if her parents don't do it her parents should have their ass beat. So tired of this stuff. If you don't want me raising your kids, you better get them in

line in public or I'll step in and do the job that you failed to do as an egg or gammy donor. Done with it. I really do like all family pharmacy. You know why I like all family pharmacy? Because when I was sick over Thanksgiving, I knew it was strep throat. I knew it was happening. You know why? Because I've had strep throat 11th trillion times. I don't need to go to the doctor and pay, you know, an exorbitant copay to have the doctor tell me what I know about my body and have known about my body for 40-some-odd years. I knew I was getting strapped. Guess what? I was getting strapped. I was correct. And so I ordered semantabiotics from all family pharmacy. I had it overnighted. And I got it. I started taking it. And guess what? It healed me.

Because, you know, I knew going through all of this. You know your body was certain things. And all family pharmacy, they specialize in. They have like, I mean, over 200 different types of medications. They also have ivermectin for the flat earthers out there who think it's bad. It's not. and you can go read about it at All Family Pharmacy. You can stock up on essential medications. You can bulk order. And they have a doctor that they work with, obviously, for prescriptions. But this is a way, it's great if you, like for instance, sinusitis, you know, like I said, strep, emergencies, things like that.

It's simplified care, no insurance, no problem. Everything is super affordable. And the favorite thing, the thing I like most about them is everything that they do is made right here in the U.S. of A. So you have high standards of quality and safety.

Do you guys hear this story about this couple on what airline was this? They were on Qatar or Qatar, but it's Qatar airways, from Melbourne, Melbourne, Australia to Doha, the Katari capital. And then they were on their way to Venice after that. I don't know why you'd take that leg of a flight. Good gosh. So they said that Mike Mitchell Ring and Jennifer Collin, they were on this to cut her airways flight,

10 hours into the flight, a woman leaves the restroom, collapses, kicks the bucket right in front of them. And they were telling an Australian news program. It's cool to Karen DeVant. They said they were telling them their story. It was their dream trip to Venice, right? So how do you deal with something like this, right?

It sounds like they were kind of in the back too, like near the lavatories. because if she's coming out of the lavatory, I don't know what kind of plane it was, I'm just assuming, although it sounds like maybe, I mean, because they could have laboratories in the middle, the front and in the back, I don't know. Anyway,

the crew put the dead body in their row. They said, oh, hey, can you? Because they were dealing with it. The couple said that they did everything they could, it was heartbreaking to watch because they couldn't save her. And they said, Mitchell Ring said they looked frustrated, and then they looked at me and saw that there was a seat

available beside me and my wife on the other side. And they said, can you move over, please? And he just said, okay, no problem. And then they placed the dead body in the chair he was in. So they couldn't even, like, access the aisle without crawling. They couldn't get up for the remaining four hours. And then they said, when they arrived, they dealt with the body. And Cutter, owned by the government, they said in a statement to the press, quote, first and foremost, our thoughts about the family of the passengers sadly past the way I'm born on a fly, blah, blah, blah, I apologize. For any inconvenience or distress, the incident may have caused, you know, et cetera. The couple said they were not allowed to change seats for the remainder of the flight.

They were told they had to remain seated. Medical staff addressed the body upon landing. They were not offered any support at all after. They were just the next to that body for four hours on a flight. On their way, like they're an older couple and they'd saved for this dream vacation and they, what do you do, right? I mean, granted, when you're on a plane, there's limited places you can put the body. Why does it got to go in the seat right there? I mean, you got some room in the back.

I'm not trying to be mean or crass, but at the same time, that's their responsibility to be prepared. And it's not the responsibility of this couple to babysit the dead body and have it in that row. That's just wild. What would you have done, Cain? I would ask right away, because wouldn't they have a spot in the plane that you can put someone who's maybe being unruly or... Like a brig? Yeah, or something like that. They don't have any, like, one little...

Although I think that maybe that should change. You should be able to have like a little hatch and drop somebody down. That's what I'm saying. Like down in that where they keep all the luggage in the belly of the plane maybe or something? I don't know. Either. I mean, I guess you have to measure out. Is it meaner to the family of the dead?

body or meaner to the people who have to sit next to the dead body. I don't know. I mean, the person's dead at that point. I mean, it doesn't matter what you do with their body. I mean, right? Or are we one of those people like some of my family members who believes that it's still spiritual and it's still alive or something like that? And you've got to go and do your southern graveyard vigil and all that stuff.

I don't know. Is that where we're at? But I don't know. If I had to be sitting next to the dead body? Yeah. Who gets the arm rest? The arm that needs the rest? That would be the dead body and the family of the dead body came.

The living person. Who gets the extra meal or the extra like peanuts or something? Are you talking about? Of course the living human being gets the extra meal. I don't know. It seems mean to the family of the dead body. Are they on the flight? Just a portion someone's food out like that.

I'm just saying, I'm just, you know, I just, the whole thing is wild. I don't even know what I would do. I, yeah, that one is. And it, and it, I can't, they're apparently where like they, they, they, they, they, flight attendants did not let them get a different seat. I mean, I don't know. I don't know how far away the original seat was from the bathroom. You'd think a dead body would get their own row.

Yeah, I don't know. Like, would I be bothered sitting next to a dead body? Oh, hell, yes. I don't like sitting next to live people. I don't want to sit next to a dead one. I have a hard enough time. Don't even ask me my reaction. I have to sit next to someone, especially if it's a dude or an unkempt woman who wears open-toed

sandals and has dirty feet. It's like we're not the hobbits going to mortar, clean it up, you know? I get real weird about this stuff. Like, why couldn't they just set her on the toilet in the bathroom? Typically, there are two bathrooms. You know what I'm saying? Why couldn't you set the person, if it's in the back, there's two bathrooms. Why couldn't you just sat her in one of the bathrooms in the back?

Why did she have to sit next to these people for four hours? Stuff happens to a dead body in four hours, y'all. I mean, and yes, you can put into an airline bathroom. You can put a body there. I'm just trying to think out loud, right? When does Rigamortis sit in? Well, this is where I'm not a corner, corner, or a mortician. We have a family friend who's a mortician.

Can't just put him in a seat? that point. Once they're all stiff, you can't just put them in a seat. Yeah, like, if they're in the aisle too and you're like pegged in by by the dead body, like how do you get out? You got crawl over that like, what in the world? That's so, I am real, I don't know. I, like I said, I don't like sitting next to living people. Sometimes it includes my own blood, uh, much less sitting next to a dead person. You know what I'm saying? I feel like I'm not. I feel like I'm not See, and you know what, Lorraine just made a good point. Like, why not put it in the window seat?

I don't know why. They didn't do that. They did not put the dead body in the window seat. Or at least, you know, put it in one of the bathrooms. I will say you will have a quiet seatmate. Yeah. No one's, you know, no one's going to talk your arm off or your ears off. Nobody's going to, you know, talk you to equal death, you know.

And don't your, like, bowels empty and stuff when you die? Yeah. Like, I don't want to sit next to that either. Living or dead. I can't imagine. I just, I don't even know how you approach that, that whole thing. I don't know. I mean, some people wouldn't mind it. I mean, do you get a free drink out of it? Oh, God. I'm just saying. More than a free drink. Oh, if it's Qatar Airlines, they probably don't have no drinks on their planes, do they? You don't even get, you have to suffer the indignity of being on a dry plane to sit next to a dead body. I don't know. I mean, I think I'd rather hang out on the wing, I think. Right? Or I'll go sit in the laugh.

I'll go do that. That'll be fine. I don't know. I just can't believe that the airline was not better prepared than that. I mean, I can, but, you know, I choose to have a little bit of incredulity. So I just feel so bad for it because they had to go to Venice after that. People who help bring you the program. It's our friends over at Caltech, the PR-5.

The PR-57, it is a 5-7 from Kel-Tel. and this is a great Florida-based company. This is new for them. We talked about the PR-57 rotary barrel pistol chambered in 5-7.

Keltex PR 57 Rotary Barrel pistol, chambered in 5-7, Keltecweapons.com, innovation performance, Keltec, K-E-L-T-E-C, Weapons.com. Tell them Dana sent you. And now, all of the news you would probably miss. It's time for Dana's Quick Five. A break from your smartphone can reboot your mood. I don't know why people I've just.

be told this. They say now apparently, here's how long you need. I think this is so dumb. We're just getting so dumb as a species. We're smod. And by the way, if you're reading this horrible NPR story that we paid taxes to have written, they bury the lead literally one, two, three, four, five paragraphs in. So it's not even a properly written story. They literally, so you could just discount all of the everything. So they're saying because they don't answer their, they don't answer the question in their headline. They just say that you need to take a break. But they don't tell you how long you actually have to take a break for, that it's good for different people to take breaks. We paid money for NPR to write this dribble. They bury the lead

five graphs in. Learn how to write a story before you pretend to be a journalist. Dear heavens, Malibu Beachgoers were warned to avoid six sea lines after more than a dozen were reported in distress. Who made them sick is what I want to know. And can I beat them up? They said 14 of them were in, were in distress over the past week. They said, Demoic acid toxicity is apparently the cause. Isn't the beach, like in California?

Isn't there just like nasty? Yeah, I have a friend that lives in San Diego and they were taking pictures of the beach near them and it was saying, like, don't go, there's like sewage in this area. Like they literally had to say, I didn't even know that it existed there. California Wildlife Center said that the, there were sea lines in distress over the last three days. They got a lot of calls from them.

But they said that the acid, it's like contaminated fish. Smaller marine life. If they eat toxic algae, it can sicker, sick and bigger animals. That's essentially what it's all down to. Egg smuggling is on the rise because America's are facing high prices. Maybe you could just get a chicken. I mean, why? A crypto gambler shot himself on a live stream after he lost $500 into meme coin investment.

I can't believe that you would actually spend $500 on a meme coin. I mean, that's sad, but, you know, a place to be. games win stupid prizes it's sad just you know be smart don't be dumb as you guys hear this is my favorite story right now can i take you back for a moment to um go back to when they shut the government what year was this they shut the government down under baroque obama under obama Biden remember when they had that big old government shut down and they put like uh oh my gosh what are they saw horses those little barriers is that what they're they are or like a saw horse i don't know what else to call it i know they have a different name like

the bike racks or the no it's not like a bike rack it's like the oh it's a barrier but it looks like a saw horse or a pommel horse i don't know you know what i'm talking about with the legs and then the thing saw horse sounds right okay somebody will tell me and if i see it great but you know what i'm talking about there were photos of them putting those like barriers up at national parks and stuff like that. Remember, they shut down the outside. They shut down the outdoors and the government shut down. You can't go to the parks. The trees are closed. Remember all that? Well, if you like that, I got another one for you. So in the, in the rush to try to create sob stories, I guess, out of all the federal cutting. They came up with a new one. Here's the Washington Post.

Long lines and canceled rentals. Firings bring chaos. to national parks. Trump's purge of federal employees is already harming the visitor experience at national parks across the country. Now, they ended up talking about this, I don't know, this, apparently they said that some of the park workers have the keys to the bathrooms and some people aren't going to be able to use the bathroom. Or some people, if they're in the bathroom, what if they get, like, for instance, they said,

we have endless things that have to be secured. like I have this guy saying talking about how he has keys, talking about how he has keys to the restrooms. How did people go to the bathroom before they had public restrooms came? It's a wonder out in the woods in nature. It's crazy. They said that the firings are going to cause disruptions reminiscent of the pandemic. Shut up. Visitor centers, campgrounds could close or reduce their hours.

They said that some of it, the bulk of it's going to occur in the heavies. season. One park has seen immediate impacts. So this is this Washington Post piece, and they're talking about like restrooms and things of that nature. And they said, oh, they, you know, they were, they were teaching park visitors about, you know, the history of the public parks and the history of the land, you know, because heaven forbid, you can't Google it. You know, I don't know, maybe you can't, maybe Google's broken and doesn't do that. So it could be, you know, you could break search engines and hide those results. You know, you could. You know, you could break search engines and hide those results. So you have to have people getting a paycheck and staffing. I mean, it's like very

atlas shrug, but it's going to happen. I just, like someone was saying that they were complaining about, well, who's going to have the keys to the bathroom if they, if they do this? And, you know, it's, I just, I can't even, I, the fact that we're even having this discussion, I think just underscores the lack of seriousness around this whole entire thing. It, it just there, and, and, you know, Simity, hang on, I pull this up. This is ABC. somebody hung an American flag upside down from El Capitan at the Yosemite National Park. The 3,000 foot wall of sheer granite, most fabled rock phase, somebody hung a flag upside down. Kane, what did we learn about?

The left had particular thoughts about hanging flags upside down. Do you remember what those were, especially as it pertained to, like, Supreme Court Justice's wives, for sure. but I'm just curious. Weren't we told that that was like an insurrection or something to have the flag upside down? Or it was evil to have the flag upside down, something to that effect. It's bad, but now it's okay again. Yeah, they said, oh, employees are scared that parks are going to get closed down because you cannot operate the parks that people cleaning the bathrooms.

That's an actual line in ABC7.com. ABC7, eyewitness news. covers Southern California. They said that they can't operate the parks without the people cleaning the bathrooms. I mean, like, OMG. What? Those bears don't wipe.

I mean, does a bear wipe in the woods? I don't know. If you didn't see it, then it didn't happen, I guess, right? Never seen it. It's like, you know, Schrodinger's dog. I don't know. Schrodinger's cat. I don't know.
