Dana Lashes Absurd Truth podcast, sponsored by Keltec. It's his life mission to make bad decisions. It's time for Florida man. I am still, and by the way, I guess people know that we read

the guy who sneezed and his colon fell out. Okay, well, we read that. I can't tell you how many times I've been sent that story in the past several days. One time was enough. One time is, I mean, we just scribes.

it and everything, guys. Yes, we talked about the guts because that's literally goes, someone's like, oh man, his guts fell out. You should talk about his guts falling out on radio. A SWAT sniper ended a hostage crisis with a precision shot in southwest Florida. They neutralized

a hostage situation in a Bank of America. They shot the suspect through a computer monitor. The suspect's name, are you ready for this? Sterling Alavanche. That sounds like a soap. That a Telemundo story name. Sterling also? Really? Your name is Sterling. So there's only two jobs,

maybe three, that you're going to have with a name like Sterling. You're either going to be a very, very rich like oil tycoon, right? A porn star or bank robber. That's it. Right? And he was one of the three. He said he was armed with a knife, claimed to have a bomb, shot him in the head. The other hostages were unarmed. And I mean, it's pretty, I mean, got him right through the monitor. Man, that was a shot of shots right there. And thankfully, again, the innocent were saved and they were not harmed. I do not want to talk about this 29-year-old Florida man who threw kittens out of a car while driving on the highway because I'm going to want to drive to Florida and throw him out of a car while driving down the highway. It's going to take everything I got. Oh my gosh. I don't even like

cats. I actually do not like them at all. One of the reasons I do. like them is because I am legitimately doctor confirmed. I had blood tests and everything. I am super allergic to them. So I can't be around cats and I also I'm allergic to goose down.

Is that funny? Super allergic to goose down. Yep. Is that crazy? I know. I'm like, yeah, but those are the fluthy pillows that everybody wants, right? I don't know. So this guy was 29-year-old man charged with animal cruelty. He threw these kittens out of a car

carwheel driving on the the highway. They said that the kittens, they watched them tumble out of the vehicle. They try to there was chaos. People tried to avoid hitting them. They got the guy. He denied knowing them, but they were saved. They're okay. They're fine. They said that they are made an arrest. The kittens are all right. They're going to get adopted. I wish every story ended happy like that. So the bad guys, you know, in prison. Florida man is telling police, well, Florida man allegedly told police that he was Mr. Monopoly. Yeah. Ryan Howard, 33, is charged with resisting arrest and criminal mischief. He went directly to jail. He didn't get to pass go. He didn't get to

collect $200. He went right to jail. He told police in St. Petersburg that he was Mr. Monopoly, and he was arrested charged Saturday. And they said that he was spray painting a concrete wall in the area. And he was, he was very smug, I have to say, in his mugshot. But they, he would not give his name when the officers kept asking him what his name was. He wouldn't, he wasn't, he was complying. So he was taken to the pokey. Yeah, he got to tell them. I'm not reading this story because this woman is a skank. I'm not reading this story because this guy is, oh, what? Is it bad? It's probably one of the ones that, oh, no, it's not. So a man builds a 10 foot wide tiny home despite his neighbors and then list it for 600,000. I'm telling you what he, somebody's going to buy it.

You know that. It's a 10 foot wide, 500 square foot. tiny home and he's selling the house for $619,000. He wanted to build a large house on the narrow lot and so they wouldn't let him. So he built a tiny little bitty house and just to get at his neighbors. And now, yeah, so now the neighbors are in a sticky wicket.

Follow them on social media as well and tell them, Dana sent you. You know, somebody very smart said to me recently that the challenge with women's basketball is that most of the stars are black, but most, I mean, most of the great players are black, but most of the stars are white, whether it's who's getting awarded by the ESPN, whether who's getting noticed by the magazines. And like you said, if there were charter flights, Brittany Griner would not have ended up in a gulag, right?

These ladies are flying commercial and they're not treated like the men are. How much of this do you think, though, is the marketing potential of a Caitlin Clark? Because quite frankly, this is a league that is largely, as you said, largely black women. It's also largely LGBTQ. She's a white, heterosexual woman. And so if you're trying to get white dads to go spend their money and buy season tickets, she seems like a marketing opportunity. How much of it is that? Oh my gosh.

Can they ever not be bitter? That's what's her face. Joy Reed. The only time, the only, she exists just to get stupid sound bites from. That's it. Otherwise, nobody cares what she says on her program. Welcome back to the program, Dana Lash with you, top of this third hour. I'm so tired of hearing these people be so bitter over Caitlin Clark.

she's like oh you know Britney Griner had had charter flights yes it was the lack of a charter flight that put the the pot on Britney Griner's person that's what it was see when you don't get a charter flight if you're going to Russia

pot magically appears you magically get the cannabis oils that you know are banned there and you try to surreptitiously stuff it away in your luggage but you know it's banned there it's Russia for crying out loud I mean what did you think that's yes it was and she wasn't

going as part of a team, was she? When Brittany Griner was going over to Russia? Wasn't she going on our own? Okay, what the hell does that have to do with the charter flight? They just don't like Caitlin Clark because she's white and straight. That's it. They don't like Clayton, they don't like Caitlin Clark because she's not a black lesbian. That's the truth of it. Stop. She's not, she's not a bad player. I don't get it. She didn't get picked for the Olympic team. Steve, let me ask you this. Do you think she should have been. pick for the Olympic team because it seemed like she's been doing a lot of good. I know this is her rookie season.

But there were chicks that have not even played a single game this season who are injured, who got selected for the Olympic team. I mean, there's a debate to be had. If you were trying to, in my opinion, if you're trying to get the 12, 15, 20 best American female basketball players, Caitlin Clark is on that list. But I guess I had to make a decision and she didn't make that cut. so yeah i i i don't know i i feel like it just seems punitive it's like i understand you got to pay your dues and that but this doesn't seem like you're you're paying your dues does it this seems like

they're mad at her because she's successful and she's bringing eyeballs in and and sponsorship opportunities and all of this stuff like i i don't know i mean i the whole thing seems is just weird to me. Isn't it, um... I think they'd rather have a man play than let Caitlin Clark play. Well, yeah, it seems like it. She uh... Half of... She played in D.C.

on Friday night, because I knew some people that went. And they sold out the whole arena. And like the wizards who are the NBA team, can't even sell out at all. And she sold out the whole place. She sold out the whole place and the Wizards can't even sell it out. Wow. That's wild. Yeah, she doesn't make the USA Olympics

team. It seems like... And she's really classy about it. She goes, oh, I'm excited. It's the most competitive team. And, you know, she's, she said it could have gone either way. She goes, me being on the team, not being on the team. She's like, I'll be rooting for them to win gold. She's way classier than all the people who are, like, gunning for her. And for her to be left to, it is, I think it's a snub, you know, because she seems, I don't know. I mean, and Brittany Griner was was, was, Britney Griner has no business. being snotty about it. Some said that they weren't even going to watch the competition. And Greiner apparently tweeted something and said,

bye, after someone said, no, Caitlin, don't got to worry about me watching. Brittany Greiner, you're an American embarrassment. Stop. You don't need to be, you don't even have any ground to be caddy over Caitlin Clark at all whatsoever. For real. It's, um, I don't know. She's being classy about it. She's looking at the long game. But now I'm wondering, does the W. NBA, do they want to be militant identity politic or do they want to be a successful league? Because I feel like they don't want to be a successful league.

It feels like they want to be militantly identity politic to the point where merit and competitiveness are number two. I mean, that's what it seems like. I read this piece that said, oh man, this team is going to be the gayest team in the Olympics, like literally, like half of the, they said half of the team half of the team are lesbians. Does that, to me, her not conforming with identity politics and not making that like her number one identity, feels like it hurts her. See, this is what I don't get. Since we're, we have a whole month for this stuff.

What I don't get is how some of these activists claim that they want to be, I guess, cleaved in or completely. viewed as just the same as everyone else, but they make their sexual identity, their number one identity to the point where everything else about them is overshadowed. And then if you point out that that seems to be hypocritical, then you're called a bigot. Right?

It seems, it's just, it's weird. And it feels like that with the WMBA. I don't know. I think it's dumb that she's not, am I going to, was that going to, I wasn't going to watch women's basketball the first place. Look, I don't even watch WMBA now.

And I like basketball, but I don't watch WMBA. I don't have time for this. There seems like more drama than on the men's court. It's cured grief. But I kind of, I think she can take it. I think she's used to, you know, stuff like this. But, I mean, clearly her popularity is making a lot of these other players feel uncomfortable. And, you know, if these women,

women don't, if these women are unappreciative of that, if they don't see that a rising tide raises all ships, then go back to having them fly commercial. Go back to all this stuff. They want all the perks that come with Caitlin Clark, but they don't want Caitlin Clark. That's sad to be that little in your thinking. I also think, you know what, you know what this goes to show, is this is a problem with women gay or straight. Women are like this. aren't they king? They are like this. I cannot stand most women.

They're just bitches. I can't stand them. There's a handful of women that I actually like. And in this industry, it's even smaller. Some of the craziest women are women that wear these big O'Crosses, and they go on cable news, and they act like holier than now pundits, and I know the real story. Like, come on.

I cannot. One day I'm going to write a book, and names will be named. But I just, there's this idea that's so prevalent. amongst women that I don't see it with men, a scarcity of access or a scarcity of opportunity. And my friend Carol Roth and I've talked about this before. She's like one of the few women I actually like. And they're not, it's they're women who I think revel in the sufferings of other women. And they view every woman as competition. And what I find so interesting about this WNBA stuff is that you can be a militant black lesbian,

but you are not immune. You are a woman still and you are still doing this stuff even in the WNBA. So there are some things you cannot change. And there are women who want to cosplay as men and act like their transgender men. They do the same thing. It is a woman thing. It is innate. Not every woman, but most women.

it's very interesting to watch this but the wmba seems like the world's worst workplace because it's all broads all women it's like the world's worst workplace and katelyn clark bless her heart rookie she's hated because she's straight she's hated because she's hated because she's white she's hated because she's not into identity politics she keeps the drama off the court she shows them just does what she does people hate her for it they're jealous of her they're jealous of her youth they're jealous of her talent. They're jealous of her presence, her influence. I'd be like, thanks, girl, for us flying charter. Thanks for us being able to fly charter. That's awesome. Thanks for that. This is how women should look at stuff like this. You know, if you have to worry about being

replaced, if you are replaced by somebody better than you, it's deserved. So strive to be better. Take a look at it. Hi, I'm Erica, an English major at Hillsdale College. Here's Hillsdale President, Dr. Larry Arne, with the Constitution Minute. James Madison writes in Federalist 51 that men are not angels. Their passions and self-interest often get the better of their reason and sense of justice. So we need government in order to protect our rights against those who would take them away. But for the same reason, Madison writes, government must be limited

because people in government have passions and interests too. Many Americans today forget this, supposing that we can do away with constitutional limits on government, supposing that the unelected bureaucrats being put in charge of our health care, for example, will rule as if they are angels. If Madison was correct about human nature, this is foolish and dangerous. To learn more and get a free pocket constitution, visit constitutionminit.com. And now, all of the news you would probably miss. It's time for Dana's Quick Five. First responders have reported a spike in 911 calls linked to hallucinogenic mushrooms. Why are you can't?

It's in Hawaii. They said Honolulu emergency workers are warning the public about the dangers of consuming wild mushrooms. Because apparently, guys, people are out hiking in Hawaii and they're looking at these mushrooms like, oh, this looks tasty. And they think it's a little trail snack. And they're eating it. And then they're tripping beans and they don't understand what's happening. You've got, don't stop. Just stop eating the stuff you find in the woods.

Just stop it. They said in April, there was someone who ate, they were hiking and they ate, I could do a whole segment on this, they ate a mushroom. And then they started freaking out because they were hallucinating. And they had to go and get them. There was another hiker last month that had to be airlifted. And they said that people are just, they're losing their mind. So stop eating the, stop it.

Stop eating the stuff, the floor and the fauna. I just didn't think that people had to be told that. Like, if you're out there hiking already, shouldn't you know? I mean, you've gone to REI. You've overpaid for, like, outside accessories. So shouldn't you, like, know at least those? Cities are seizing illegal mopeds and scooters amidst a backlash against food delivery drivers. These people who are complaining about the food delivery drivers wouldn't last a day in Italy.

They said that the soaring demand for delivery food, there's a small army of couriers where scooters, motorcycles, and mopeds are zipping in and out of traffic, hopping onto sidewalks, dropping off salads and sandwiches. Look, I feel like I was baptized by fire when we were on vacation in Italy because those people do not care. The roads are a suggestion. traffic signals are merely just, you know, ideas. Nobody cares. It's just everybody is, I watched a woman almost die on her little, her little moped and zipping around. They all do that.

It's crazy. They said that pedestrians are terrorized, but you know what? Bicyclists are worse. I said it. I said it. I will fight on that hill. It's true. It's absolutely true.

This is really said. A TV doctor was tragically confirmed dead by his family after a body. was his body was discovered behind a coastal bar on a Greek island. So he and his wife, he works over a daily meal, Dr. Michael Mosley. I'm very familiar with him. But he was, I guess his wife was at the hotel and he went out hiking and he took a wrong turn and fell. That's so sad. Stick with us. We got a lot more in store. Can I switch it up and tell you about, I can't believe I'm sharing this story with you. I don't want to share it. It's a culture story. You know what I'm going to. I saw this over the weekend. Because you know, it's, we only get one day for D-Day to observe that. Now, get over it.

You get the whole month for how people get it out. A top cancer charity apologized for using the word cervix instead of trans-friendly front hole. A top cancer charity, it's the Canadian Cancer Society. The Canadian Cancer Society. They have a webpage that's about cervical cancer. And the cervical part of the cervical cancer apparently made the trans Tifa mad. And they said that many non-binary people have mixed feelings and they feel distance from that term. And so they apologized for it. And they said that they recognized the limitations of the words that we've used and they were sorry that they didn't use the words front hole. This is literally what they posted. Quote, we recognize that many trans men and non-binary people may have mixed feelings about

or feel distanced from words like cervix. You may prefer other words such as front hole. We recognize the limitations of the words that we've used while also acknowledging the need for simplicity. Another reason we use words like cervix is to normalize the reality that men can have these potty parts too. Stop being a health, anything. They don't have cervix.

because they're men. Front hole. I will punch you in your front hole. Front hole, really? That's where we're at? We need to consult the FCC. Can we even say? I just said it.

I know. That's probably stop saying it. Front hole. I'm not, I mean, I'm just hoping you'll stop saying it. Now you're mounting it. But I'm going to have to reach out to the FCC and see what that's about. Yeah, I don't. If anybody who wants to report us on that,

they can, we'll stick our boot in their front hole. How about that? No. No. But the, in what world is the term front hole friendly to any group, let alone the trans group? This is like idiocacy. Can you imagine going to the doctor? Yeah, I need, why are you here? I'm here because I need to look at my front hole. You tell people, like, shut your pie hole. Like, it's not a, it's a whole. It's a whole. specifically for pie. Right. It's not like, hey, we're trying to be friendly with this language. That sounds like confusing. You know how many front holes there are?

You got three of them on your face. Actually, five, but, you know, you have five holes on your face alone. Really thought we could conclude the subject. It's not going to happen. It's not going to happen. No. Not happening? No, this is what they wanted, Kane. So we're going to engage and we are going to just absurdity all the way. Full on absurdity. crank it to 11. It goes to 11, you know, it's one louder. I can just text. They said that they recognize the limitations of words. You mean limitations of words because they're limited in that you don't have it? That?

Like what, you feel distance from words like cervix? Yeah, you should because it's really far away from you as in not a part of your person. It's not. But it's a, guys, it's a, the Canadian Cancer Society. Canadian Cancer Society and they're posting stuff like this and apologizing for it. Again, how would you feel comfortable

if you went in to get a checkup or something and your doctor was like, yeah, you know, we're, uh, well, go ahead and do an examination of your front hole. And you'd be like, what?

What are you talking about? Yeah, because it sounds very scientificy, right? Much anatomy. Yeah, it's a front hole. And then we're going to look at your side holes here. Your ears, I guess. Going to look at your side holes. We're also going to take a peek at your food hole, too.

Or all the holes. We're the whole doctor. It's the whole doctor, right? I'm just saying, do you know how dumb that sounds? That's like idiocracy levels of stupid. We're not even going to say specific things. Do you also realize how that diminishes the very thing that they claim that they're trying to raise advocacy for?

Not only do men not have cervixes, men cannot get cervical cancer. To pretend that a man who does not have a cervix can get cervical cancer is stupid. To have a woman who claims that she's a man, but hey, she's got this thing here too. That means you're still a woman. You're always going to be a woman. You're everything about you is woman. You can in your mind pretend you're a dude all day long. And normally I would not have a problem with that because I don't care.

I'm not Jesus. I don't have a heart for people. I don't care enough. Right? I just don't. I try, but I don't. I don't care what you do. But the moment you start telling me to use words like front hole and you downplay the advocacy of a very

serious disease. that's when it gets personal. And that's, I think women have every right to get mad about that. I can't believe that they actually felt that they had to post it, which means that they obviously got enough pushback to apparently make them feel like they had to post something about it. That's, that's, this is insane. It, it, it, they're making women a joke.

I mean, it's cervix. It's not a whole. You realize this, right? It's like a whole. Right? People know this. It's an entire thing. Oh my gosh. To just say, well, it's Kane, I don't even want to explain to you about neosurvexes and where they come from. Neo? Yeah, it's like a frankensurvex.

Oh. Mm-hmm. Where they come from? Yeah, it's a lab made. Oh. It's not from like a pig or something? No, they, you know how like Charlie Brown did that little Christmas tree? So they have doctors come in and take male copulatory organ skin and Frankenstein you want to. I have never wanted commercials more than I want to commercial.

No, this is how this is our science now, guys. This is science now. And I'm texting the FCC to see if we. Are you literally snitching on me? You work here. I want to see if we broke any rules. Oh my gosh. That's not how this works.

You wait for someone to snitch on you. You don't snitch on yourself. It feels like. Golly. Did something wrong this segment. You know, go tell P. Pam and HR. Go tell her. You go and tell her. Never talk to HR. She's like a troll cave. You know that? Like you got to play the troll toll

just to get in to see Pam and HR. 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.
