Dana Lashes of Sur Truth podcast, sponsored by Keltec. It's his life mission to make bad decisions. It's time for Florida Man. Well, we have one big Florida man story, which may need its own segment. It has to do with the bully Florida boat captain who got, well, he got wrecked by the internet because he tried to bully a 22-year-old. He's this charterboat captain. He was bullying a young fisherman, and then he jumped on the guy's dingy and threatened to bash him in the face. now he faces jail and professional ruin.

Why do people do this stuff? I don't think we can play the video because every other, it's really bad. But this is like a whole other segment. He told, I mean, the guy's Brock Horner, Tarpon Coast fishing charters, he went after Gage towels. What is with your people's names? What is happening? Brock Gage. Like, what is happening?

Towels. It's Mr. Mrs. Towell's son, not to be confused. with the washcloth family. He was on the water after a near mist with a different vessel. Tals posted the footage and he told Horner he had the wrong eyes. Apparently, Horner thought he

basically he did have the wrong guy and I face his felony burglary with assault battery all this stuff. This deserves its own segment, I think. What would you do? Choose your own adventure. So we're going to come back to this one because it's a big one. Let's see.

A Florida woman rasseled a gator to snatch a dog from the jaws of danger. She said, I didn't even think because she's hardcore, and that's awesome. She, Kim Spencer was walking her dog when a gator just ran out of the water, tried to snatch her dog. And she didn't call for help. She jumped in and used her bare hands to pry open the animal's jaws and save her dog. She said, I didn't think I just moved. And thankfully, you know, everybody's okay, but she is actually going to try now. She's like telling everybody, look, they'll come out of the water faster than you think, which is true. Now, also over the weekend, they had these stupid protests.

They had all, I don't understand what is happening at these protests. So wait. So they had some protests about immigrants at one Tesla thing and then in another one. They were like, we don't like Trump and Musk. And then another one still, they were like, you, you can stand with veterans or Musk. What? I don't even understand what this means. Why are they so insane?

Okay. First up, this is the United We Dream. this this this they an activist this was at

one of the again one of the hands off things you see what I mean they have no

cohesive messaging they're all over the place so this one female gets up

uh grecia Martinez rosa she is a national immigration activist

per my notes and heads the group united we dream and and well this was these were her remarks listen my name is greisa martine rosas i am an immigrant i am

so see do you know that every other political identifier that you apply to oneself that lessens the severity of any kind of punitive action in chance of wrongdoing yeah uh-huh so like if you're a female what if you're a trans female oh okay now you're talking what if you're like a queer trans female. I don't even know what that would be, but I'm just saying. I'm not saying she's trans, but she needs another modifier. I have zero, first off, I have zero empathy for her, sympathy, anything. She's been here long enough where she was protected previously and against deportation by Flores. So she didn't have to worry about all of that. So she could have applied to become a citizen or have a legalized status in the United States, seeing how long she has been here.

So I just, I can't feel sorry for people who want to stay in their current situation and have no will at all whatsoever to change it. So I don't feel bad for it. But what does that have to do? What do they mean hands off? Like, what are they, like these people get up to talk about themselves. It's a never-ending doom scroll live. That's what these rallies are.

These rallies are nothing more than. doom scrolling coming to fruition in meat space. I can't think of anything more heinous. I can't believe somebody also wanted to spend like a perfectly good Saturday doing this stuff. Then you had this dude, right? Transgender audio somebody 24. Trans activist at another hands-off rally.

Listen. 24. Let me tell you a little bit about myself. I am black. I am Filipino Japanese second generation. I mean I and I'm a disabled trans man but I'm also a Medicaid patient I'm also I have three toes person who uses food stamps I'm also a person who has been through houselessness in this country what I am also a person who has gone

through substance use and addiction and most of all I am a patient of plant parenthood. But, but, so one more, you got a solid hand. I am everything that Donald Trump and Elon Musk want to erase. I don't think they care particularly about your life

you know, in terms of they are going to stop doing the stuff that they're doing and focus on erasing you. What does that even mean? These people have a really high opinion of themselves. First off, you counted nine, right? Nine. There was ten, I think.

intersectional, political. She's like, I have three toes, and I'm lactose intolerant. And I also want to be a man, and I'm a transmet. Was it right? I can't tell. I don't even know the language anymore. Peanut allergy. Yeah.

I have a peanut allergy. What else? Yeah. Why? Who cares about all of this stuff? That doesn't make you specialer than anybody else there. But to the left, it does. the more things that you can rack up on a list, the special er you are.

That's how the left works. Like you can't just be like a woman and be a Democrat. You have to be like a trans woman, queer trans woman with three toes who, you know, survived a house fire. I don't know. Like I just, right? It's only burnt like on 30%. I just, I don't understand the never-ending boxes to do. check with these people. I mean,

I can't even think of that about me. Everything about, you have to overshare in order to do it. I don't like overshare. I don't like sharing, period, but good heavens. Now, then you have this one audio somebody 25. This person's in D.C.

They are the gatekeeper for all veterans. Listen, 25. You can stand with Doge and Trump and Elon Musk, or you can stand for veterans. You cannot Stand for both. Now make no mistake.

Wait, what do you mean you can't stand with both? Well, he's the president of all the veterans, that guy. I don't even know who this guy is. It's part of their hands-off thing. The left doesn't care about veterans. I honestly, I'm sorry. Abby Gate would like a word. Abby Gate would love to have a word, by the way.

Who's this guy? I don't even care. But they, every single rally nobody what was the purpose of them all coming together again it's a two minutes hate session they just wanted to come together and bitch that's it

did they change anything over the weekend was there any big realization learned I don't think so who's the guy that uh wait this was I think I put this in it's the

uh trans dude this was uh oh yeah, the trans Democrat, Tim, Mrs. Tim McBride. Okay. Can we play this one? Because this was in another hands-off rally. Listen. And we are here today because while we know that Donald Trump thinks that he can place his hands anywhere,

we're telling him he'll know hands off our Social Security. hands off our Medicaid hands off Medicare Hands off snap Hands off our kids Hands off women's rights Hands off LGBT rights So

The irony of a man Acting like No no no We're telling Trump to keep his hands off of women's rights The idea of a man doing this The guy dresses up as a woman And who he

He cosplays as a woman And mocks feminine mocks the essence of what it is to be a woman well she's a guy so yeah but I just when they say hands off social security

well you guys already took it so it's gone I mean it's been insolvent for forever I mean we story after story warning after warning you guys spent it Al Gore talked about putting it in a lock box that you know had no bottom just the way he likes his masseuses

and he they robbed you blind of Social Security. So they've already had their hands all over it. Whenever they, when they bristle over Social Security, they bristle over the idea that you would actually be able to keep your own money. So that's number one. Number two, no, is this not how they really think the government's operating? Because that explains so much stupidity about the left. Every single one of these rallies, there was no central theme. There was no central mission. It was all over the place. They had no goal. except to get together and complain. And I don't know if they realized that last election, voters were tired of Democrats just getting together and holding two minutes hate sessions. They were done with it. They were tired of hearing Democrats complain about Trump

and everything else and not offer any solutions. And here Democrats did it again. Lovely spring Saturday and they decide to gather in various cities across the country and do it again. No solutions offered. You have this guy sitting here lecturing about women's rights, the irony of ironies. There's no, I don't understand the point of this.

I wouldn't want to, that's not, no one's rights are being eliminated. No one's being deprived or being denied of anything. But especially the guy who's the gatekeeper for the veteran, yeah, Abby Gatewood like a word. I just don't understand the whole, you know, when we got together for like tea party events, back when we kicked off and founded the second coming of it, every single approach. protest had a purpose. The messaging and grassroots would all talk. We'd all talk with each other, but we wanted a singular focus, whether it was, you know, Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac, whether it's the idea of too big to fail, whether it's about, you know, the cash for clunkers. Every single

event had a singular focus and a singular item of action after the rally. So in the event of, you know, too big to fail and all of that, there were action plans at rallies that we all, you know, on phone calls and meetings leading up to this devise, like this is what people need to do after the rally. The rally is supposed to be the thing that kicks off your motivation and gives you some context, gives you the perspective. And then after that, that's when you hit up your congressional member's office or send out an email or call their offices or talk to them, whatever. And everyone was kind of a line. There, there was. There, a purpose for it. It wasn't just like, let's everybody get together and have a political kegger

and bitch and moan for however, you know, all afternoon. That was not the purpose of any rally I ever attended or ever planned. We, I mean, literally, we're passing out handbills for people to get in touch with their lawmakers about these specific issues. Every single speaker had to adhere to driving home that message. This is our message. This is the issue that we're talking about today. We kept it really singular, really focused. We're not going to like run all over God's Green Earth and talk about every issue under the sun. We're going to keep it very simple and very focused so that we can better harness direct action. And it was incredibly successful. That is not what they're doing. Like ours had a purpose. They're just getting out there and yelling. And it's the same

stuff that we saw leading up to the election and you saw how successful that was for them. Gold prices have surged over 40% since January 2024 consistently reaching new highs. According to Goldman Sachs' research, the upward trend is expected to persist due to strong demand from central banks.

And now, all of the news you would probably miss. It's time for Dana's Quick Five. They're really trying to get you to freak out over bird flu. They're saying, oh my gosh, bird flu could be heading north this spring. Fewer federal health officials are working to stop it. I don't care. It's a virus.

It's just that's the way it is. Just wash your hands. Don't be gross and don't eat dead birds on the side of the road. I mean, really, how difficult is this people? Do we have to freak out over everything? Stop it. Just take a breather. These people with these headlines, good night.

Panic in Austria. Borders are shut to two countries after a disease operation. break. Oh, but not to like the influx of people coming in from all manners of the globe illegally. They said Slovakia has closed 24 borders, introduced strict measures to help prevent the spread of a highly infectious disease, they said. This is, it's foot and mouth. Foot and mouth disease. Again, just don't be gross. Be careful what you eat. I mean, what? Pain. What in the world? People know this. Second measles death reported in Texas. I mean, all. of these are just like and oh also Texas AG is investigating Kellogg's over healthy cereal claims

Ken Paxton said that they're investigating Kellogg's over the artificial food dyes in cereals why does anybody eat what do anybody eat these anyway like the the pops and the fruit loops or fruidos from nostalgia probably I remember as a kid love I never had fruit loops until I moved out on own and I bought a box of fruit. I always had Fridios. I always had like the great value version of stuff. Actually growing up you're right. We all, we had Cheerios. Did I did not get cereal in a box? Like

maybe a couple times. It was always in bags, right? It was always in a bag. Remember when Kicks came out? Kid Tested Mother-approved? That's a horrible cereal. I used to like that. Kix was just a ball of disappointment. Cheerios also was horrible unless you put a cup of sugar in it. It's horrible. Why would anybody eat that? Remember grape nuts?

Grape nuts are horrible. that's like go out and just you know what just beat up a squirrel and take its food that's the same thing you know what great nuts is squirrels eating nuts and spitting them into the cereal box and they seal it up at the factory and send it out and people pay money for it that's where great nuts come from today huh

I'm just saying anyway just stop eating trash there's your headline and then what I got but I've got more what Dana we're done with your Darieness today that's okay it's uh but you're not NASA by the way, we did miss this last segment, last headlines.

NASA, they're saying that there is a mysterious structure on Mars that proves there was life on the red planet. It's a new book out. They said that they've analyzed dozens of photos of structures on the Martian surface, and they are positive that they are man-made. Well, I don't know. If they're watching what our headlines have been for the past 48 hours, actually longer than that,

they don't want anything to do with us because the stupidity may be more catching than the hand-foot-mouth than the measles, our partner. over at Keltec. The Keltec PR 57. Now I did I did go get mine. I haven't been able to really fire it yet because it's been been busy preparing for some stuff that we got coming up. But very excited to put a few hundred rounds through this. And it's one of the latest from Caltechs. I think it's actually genius. It's a really smart 5-7. And if you like 5-7s, you always wanted to carry one. I think for men, obviously, it's a heck of a lot easier for us ladies. We're just built differently. This is the lightest 5-7 that's on the market. It's actually 40% lighter than the next

lightest to 5-7. And from Keltec, it's the PR-57 rotary barrel pistol chambered in 5-7 low recoil. It's actually great for everyday carry because it's super thin and super light. They achieve it two ways. The rotary barrel, which makes it super light and the unique top loading design, that gets those. This replaces traditional magazines with stripper clips. You have a slimmer carry profile 20 plus one capacity. MSRP is only 399. Super, super, super affordable.

It's the first of its kind. KELTEC PR 57, rotary barrel pistol chambered N57. Visit Keltekweapons.com to learn more innovation performance, KELTEC, TecWeapons.com. Tell them Dana sent you. Can I just go back to this? I had it in the headline. It was a brief headline.

And the reason that I am bringing the story up to discuss this particular, totally not in the news at all story today, is because I really feel like we all should go here and take it over. And then we become the tribesmen and then we can shoot arrows at anyone who wants to try to get near us. I see the headlines like I've been seen with a tear of craziness and it makes me want to go to the silence. So it's the Bay of Bengal. and in the vast expense, let me put on my David Attenborough hat, in the vast expense that is the Bay of Bengal, there lies North Sentinel Island, a remote speck of land that is fiercely guarded by both the Indian Navy and its indigenous inhabitants, people known as the Centinalese. It is a tribe, the population. of which we can only estimate maybe between 50 and 200, right? They are classified as uncontacted. They are isolated and they respond in the same manner that I do when unwanted guests appear with lethal force. They don't like drop-bys. Don't think that you're going to just scooch on over and

knock on their door. It's not going to happen. And they are protected in part because the Indian government and others do not want them contracting any kind of potential diseases from outsiders to which they've no immunity. And so there are strict prohibitions on approaching the island. So they've declared the island in all of the surrounding waters to be an exclusion zone. And they enforce this with a regular naval patrol. And Idy unauthorized entry is high. illegal. And you are forbidden to contact the tribe at all. Now, they do this, not because they're going to necessarily fine you, but because you will be killed to death by the North, by the Centinolese. They are legally permitted to defend their territory, even up to the point of

killing trespassers. And now, they've had hapless fishermen. There was a determined Christian missionary, all have gained access and they all met grizzly ends there. Now last Monday, not this black Monday, but last Monday there was an American tourist. Now, if you said, oh boy, I already know where this is going, Dana, yes, you do, down to the description of said tourists. Said tourists, again, you know how I have a thing about, because I think it looks bad and it just isn't the same white people with dreadlocks, particularly if you're blonde, don't do it like this guy did. So that's his first problem, right? You look like a tourist.

Stop that. He's an American tourist. He traveled to a restricted reserve on North Sentinel Island, and he left behind a can of Coca-Cola as an offering so that the most isolated tribe in the world could try it. The experts branded this guy's attempt as a deeply disturbing stunt. Not only did he put himself in danger, but the entire story. sentinelese tribe. They could contract a common disease like socialism or something, and it could kill all of them. There's no, there's no education at, by the way, is the actual vaccine for socialism.

Did you know that? It's true. You don't even have to get a shot just there. So he was arrested. He's 24 years old. He was arrested when he returned to land. And they were warning him like, you could have been killed to death. You know this, right? Because they will kill you and eat you. well, maybe 90E, but they'll totally kill you. Apparently they've inhabited this place for 30 to 38,000 years. I don't know if I believe that. But they're there. They're indigenous and you don't want to mess with them

because they will literally come out and just throw a barrage of arrows at you. It will rain down and block out the sun. As didn't Xerxes say that when he was battling the 300, the arrows will block out the sun. And so I don't know why people are hell-bent on content. them? What if, though, to get away, because if I swear if I have to put up with any more of these press headlines, what if we just act like we're there? Like, oh, no, no, we didn't, we're here. We've been here this whole time. Just, you know, just go and show up and we'll act like we're members

of the tribe. That way, we don't have to watch these insane headlines and all of the weep in a gnashing of teeth about the economic or not downfall. I would, would you go there, came? but you like grounding and bacteria tea. Yeah. I can do that wherever I want. You like hippie stuff. These are like professional hippies. You really throw on that professional word around.

Well, I mean, they're, they're, I mean, by our society's measurement, they are. Yeah. Still a lot of heavy lifting. Uh-huh. Well, I'm just saying. Yeah. I mean, they're, they're. I don't see it.

This is where I think that if we don't go there, we should send. the panikins there. Yeah. It still sounds like I'm talking about a bird, doesn't it? Doesn't it? I don't like Trump's nickname. I'm really disappointed. It's the first time I've never not liked a nickname.

That's what he's calling checks notes, the weak and stupid people. It'll be the new Galapagos who just put all the panicans there. They're like pangolins, but dumb. Well, can you tell us this is an indigenous panicking? Oh, yes, they're bulbous heads. and very dumb, very dumb beasts of burden. They are, the panigans. Don't they sound like a weird flightless bird.

Panigans. So just, you know, just saying. Thanks for tuning in to today's edition of Dana Lash's absurd truth podcast. If you haven't already, make sure to hit that subscribe button on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you get your podcast.
