Absurd Truth podcast, sponsored by Keltec.
It's his life mission to make bad decisions.
It's time for Florida Man.
All right.
So first up here, this, a Florida man pretended to be a Disney World Staffer to steal a famous character.
And of course, everything just froze up because everything sucks at,
Why would you want to, I would think that, you know, Disney would probably at this point because they're so devalued would give it away for free.
So if I can get this thing pulled up, I'll get it to you.
In the meantime, though, a Florida woman was accused of kicking an ER nurse in the stomach and was arrested for a DUI.
According to WFLA, that's, yeah, you can't be doing that kind of stuff.
The woman was super drunk.
A Florida Highway Patrol trooper responded to a crash on Sunset Point Boulevard after a woman collided with a tree.
47-year-old Katrina McGrade.
She had empty alcoholic drinks in the driver's side door pocket of her Lexus.
And that's not allowable at all.
Not allowable.
She was arrested, taken to Sumter County Jail.
Hi, I'm Erica, an English major at Hillsdale College.
Here's Hillsdale President, Dr. Larry Arne, with a Constitution Minute.
Human soul is made to learn, and the highest things of life are the best things to learn.
One of these, it turns out, is the way we govern ourselves, and one of the best examples of that is the Constitution of the United States.
It explains what our government should look like and how it should function to best protect our rights.
It was created to give us the freedom to make choices about the way we wish to live.
Unfortunately, most colleges and universities today fail to teach our Constitution.
When they do, they often denigrate it.
This is dangerous because it is impossible to preserve our liberty if we don't understand where it comes from and how to protect our country.
protected. Having a proper civics education is essential to preserving our freedom. To learn more and get a

Shrink your candy bars. Big grocery. Big cookie. Big cereal. Everything's big. He said last month they're in
state of the union, quote, too many corporations raise their prices to pad their profits. All
my gosh, he sounds like, you know what he sounds like? He sounds like an eighth grader who just
had a political awakening and they sound stupid left. That's what it sounds like. Everybody, you all know
those people. You get the people who are newly awakened to stuff and they just, they do stuff like
this. Well, it's not because of, you know, it's not because I won't stop spending and have spent
more. And it's not because I won't stop raising taxes. It's, it's because big grocery.
That sounds so dumb. That is the dumb. And people, who believes that?
That is the dumbest damn thing I've ever heard.
It actually kills my brain cells to try to make sense of it.
And that's without the benefit of alcohol.
Good night.
Well, you know, I regret saying it was transitory.
Janet Yellen with inflation.
We just played that last week.
Did we not?
That was last week.
And then I see all these billionaires sell.
What are they selling all their shares?
It's making me nervous, game.
I mean.
Well, there's an incoming crash.
Like, by how bad?
been delaying this.
Yeah, they're going to delay it until, like, say, Biden loses, and then they're going to be like, look what Trump did.
Yeah, they'll start letting it decay right after November 5th if they lose.
So you're saying I should put my money in my mattresses now.
Yeah, or buy precious metals.
Like, from GoldCo.
Like, exactly.
Make sure you use Codeana.
Sidebar.
When I was young, my step-grandmother, when she passed, I've noticed that there's this.
with older people especially, like the greatest generation, they kept everything.
Like my grandmother would reuse foil.
My step-grandmother, my stepdad's mom, she would, you know, the nesting mixing bowls,
she would hide things in them.
She would have like important documents and then a bowl and then like a chotchke and a bowl.
Yes, it was the weirdest thing.
So when she passed and they all had to clear out her, it was a small, modest apartment.
and it just looked like she
she kept her big furniture from her big wedding
or her big bedroom set from when she was married
but everything else was pretty modest
and you know she didn't have a whole heck of a lot
at first glance.
Then when they started going through her stuff
I'm going to tell you those old folks
if you want something hidden, give it to an old folk.
They will hide it and they will hide it so damn well
they won't even remember where it is.
It is so good.
I mean, she had stuff in places I never would have thought to put things.
She would tape things to the bottom of stuff.
And it would be in cab and you would open a cat and it would be nice and neat.
You never knew.
You didn't know.
It was the craziest thing I've ever seen.
And they were going through all her stuff and like, oh my gosh.
And just finding all of these things that were hidden in all of these different,
You know, little spots.
I mean, I never, you know, legal documents.
Should I have legal documents in the weirdest of ways?
I mean, it's actually genius now that I think about it.
You know, they should do a class on that, right?
I'm just saying, like, who needs a safe?
When you got an old person who can hide stuff in your house?
You don't need a safe.
Get you an old person to hide stuff.
I mean, they were fine in all kinds of stuff, like bracelets and some ear.
Because she didn't wear a lot of jewelry.
She would keep it.
You know, if like her family gave it to her, her husband gave it to her whatever.
But she didn't keep it like a jewelry box.
you know, it would, you know, if it was a ring, it would be taped to the bottom of something that
had a recessed bottom and you could tape it on there so it's still, I mean, genius. Genius. So I'm just saying,
do I need to start doing that? I feel like I should, but here's my problem. So I also have this habit.
I don't know why, but part of me mentally is like a World War II greatest generation kind of
hide a stuff person. I will get Christmas presents for people and I will hide them. I've done this for
years. And then I forget it. I forget where it's going. I forget it. I forget where it's at.
I have to make notes for myself. So this is one of the reasons why I keep everything itemized.
It looks like chaos to you at first glance, but I swear it makes like the best sense ever.
And I just cannot. I think I'm going to have to do that. I think I'm going to have to do that. I think I'm going to have
to start like maybe hiding money and hiding important stuff like that.
I have some bowls.
Yeah.
I was actually one of the most genius things I've ever seen.
Think about it.
You're mixing bowls, right?
Legal document, bowl.
Legal document bowl.
That goes, that's genius.
That's beyond money in the Bible.
She's, yeah.
She was living in like 30, 40, like way ahead of us.
My grandfather would keep mounds of cash.
in the family in the family Bible in the middle of the coffee table in the middle of his house.
They never locked their doors, a little 800 square foot house in those arcs.
They never locked their door.
And I remember asking him, I saw him open it one day and I was like, why do you have all this money in here?
What are you?
Aren't you worried?
I was like, Grandpa, you know, put that in the bank.
He hated banks and he hated hospitals.
And I said, it's not very safe for it to be there.
And he goes, no heathen's going to look in here.
I was like, he's right, because they never had an issue.
Right? I don't know. But man, that's that's that's something else. Something else.
Keltek is a great company, Florida-based company. Family ran Florida based and they make incredibly
innovative stuff. So if you have, maybe you've got the Gen 1 or Gen 2 version of the sub 2K.
This is their 9mm carbine. The Gen 3 is out. It is shipping. And it means you also no longer
have to detach your optics to fold it in half. That simple twist and fold motion.
of that patent pending, rotating forward into either direction, folds the gen 3 right in half,
and just as quickly and easily deploys it to optics and all. But there's more. You got an
upgraded aluminum trigger, redesigned trigger mechanics, lighten five pound pull. That means
more precise feedback, clean pulls, improved accuracy and follow-up, upgraded action as well,
and a new chamber indicator. And this is Keltek, made in America, family-owned values at their best.

Gen 3 sub 2K.

Tell them that Dana sent you.
And now, all of the news
you would probably miss.
It's time for Dana's Quick 5.
So this is breaking.
So now, Senate Bill 4,
that says before in Texas,
the law that said that
the state of Texas could detain,
jail, remove illegal immigrants
in the state. The Supreme Court
has just came out in B.C.
allows Texas to enforce immigration law.
The Biden administration, remember, had sued to block the law.
But now, and then there was an injunction against SB4.
But now, Scotus has said, no, we're all good.
But it's still going to play out.
It still has to go through the lower courts.
But they said that, yes, Texas can't enforce SB4 right now.
That gives local police the power to arrest people who enter illegally,
arrest and jail.
So that can go into effect.
Litigation goes on in lower courts.
It still could, ultimately, they could block it at a later date.
But in the meantime, it's going to continue.
The majority did not explain its reasoning.
Amy Coney Barrett and NBC notes wrote separately to note the appeals court has yet to weigh in on the issue.
So as we were saying on break, the yeating can commence.
We'll come back to this because it's an important one.
I also saw this, Kane found this.
Plano, sorry, Plano, Texas, one and a half million gallons of sewage was leaked into white,
Rock Creek in Plano.
The city said it was a valve failure
at a lift station and that
it caused wastewater
to basically flood
and some of the mechanical equipment shut down
and that resulted in a sewage
overflow. Mmm, tasty.
This is literally California eating my Texas.
Poohoo water. Plano
said that it's drinking water though is not effective
and it's safe to use. Just don't drink out of that white rock creek.
Especially if it's got some floaters in there today, so don't.
I know. I'm 12 years old. Bear with me.
want. I earned it. I've earned it. Also, you're like, please don't. Let's get back to more serious
issues. This, a huge volcano erupted again in Iceland spewing bright orange lava into the air.
Don't live by volcanoes. And a chunk of a Boeing 737 fell off a united flight. This one from San Francisco
to southern Oregon. And tomorrow I'll share with you the crocodile handler who almost lost his genitals.
Now, we'll have that one for tomorrow. It's not a Florida man story.
Believe it or not, stick with us. I know, I really wasn't going to talk about this. Now I'm going to. The Don Lemon
interview, the Elon Musk thing. And I'm only bringing it up because I watched a video this morning
where Elon Musk makes me-worthy faces as he tries to wrap his head around the idea that Don Lemon doesn't
understand the concept of hypotheticals. So if you didn't know, and this is just very amusing,
so Don Lemon gets axed. Well, he ended up getting a payday. How much did he get?
get from CNN. He got a nice payday. Several, a few million.
17 million? I don't know. I know cut seven. We have some of him. Yeah. He, I mean, he got a nice
payday. So let me just, let me set it up and then we're going to play this. So he
then makes a deal with X to where he has a new program and X is going to stream his show
or carry his show exclusively. So it's not going to be on any other platform. And then I guess for one of
his first interviews, Don Lemon decides to interview Elon Musk, the guy employing him, which is something
you never really do if it's not going to be softball particularly. And it went horribly because Don Lemon,
I guess, decided, okay, well, we've signed a contract so I'm protected. You can't keep, you can't
fire me. You got to keep me and I can just abuse you as much as I want. Well, he found out the hard way
that Elon Musk doesn't care about any of that stuff and doesn't operate by societal demands.
And so he fired him. And Don Lemon's been bitching him moaning this entire time. Audio Sunday 7 gives you
some insight. It was, he, because Musk got mad. And you could tell he was annoyed and he was really
trying to, you know, keep a hold of, I'd have been mad. I'd have yelled at him. But listen, this is
audio sound by seven. When the census is done, the census is based on all people in an area,
whether they are citizens or not. So if there are a concentration of people who came here
illegally in a particular state or in a particular state, that state will actually then get an
increased number of house seats. So the house seat apportionment is proportionate to a number of people,
not the number of citizens. So the illegals overwhelmingly go to places like California in New York,
and the, if you just look at the math, if you look at the apportionment with and without illegals,
I believe California would lose.
I believe the blue state, there would be a net loss of blue states of approximately 20 seats in the House.
This also applies to the electoral college.
So he's like, well, this also applies to electing the president because the same, the electoral votes are also done by apportionment the same way that House seats are done.
Don Lemon has not, he's just, Don Lemon is sitting there, he's not listening and absorbing this information.
He's waiting to talk.
There's a big difference.
I hate that.
But did you hear what he was asking for?
When he was, I mean, you know, I, you miss all the shots that you don't take, I guess.
But he asked for in his contract and all of this came out.
He wanted a cyber truck, right?
He wanted, what is it, $25 million, a cyber truck, and however many shares of X.
or shares a number of shares in X.
Isn't that what he wanted?
Dude straight up asked for a cyber truck.
I mean,
he asked for that child's drawing.
I'm kidding.
So he, you know, he tried.
Can you imagine that?
Is he worth all that?
Millions of dollars is a cyber truck
and shares in X?
Are you serious?
Look, I will say,
I give him credit for asking what he thinks he's worth.
Now, notice I said what he thinks he's worth.
Because he might value himself
a little bit to,
a little bit more than some other people would value him.
But, you know, you get out there and you ask for what you think you're worth.
This is why I always get so mad with these Hollywood starlets who raise a hell because the much more famous box office draw dude name, their name is that gets top billing or paid more.
And I'm like, okay, well, then if you can be much of a box office draws this guy, you can get paid the same.
And also, it's not this guy's fault that your agent sucks.
Right?
I have an agent.
And I mean, we, I've gone through this.
for years. You do not ever be afraid
to ask what you think you're worth. I will literally
ask you. I will drag it. I will ask you.
I will tell you what I think I'm worth and I
will say this is what you've got to meet right here.
It's a fun process. Everyone loves me, including my lawyer. They all love
me. This is the only time
where I'm like super insufferable.
But I always get Matthew Starlets and people who don't ask
for what they think they're worth. At least he did,
Kane. He's like, you know, I'm worth a cyber
truck and millions of dollars and shares
in X. Thanks for two
