Dana Lash's absurd truth podcast, sponsored by Keltec. It's his life mission to make bad decisions. It's time for Florida man. All right, so guys, there's a reason why you don't drive your lawnmower, your riding mower on a busy road, and you don't do it when you're drunk. Big, big reason why this is in Sumter County, Florida. Florida Highway Patrol said a man was riding his lawnmower, down the road and he got hit by a pickup truck Saturday night. Now, also at night, I feel like

I didn't add that in there. So don't drive your riding lawnmower on a busy road. Don't drive your riding lawnmower on a busy road at night. And don't drive your lawnmower on a busy road at night while you were drunk. It happened at almost 9 p.m. 71 year old man riding his lawnmower. He had no lights on in the dark riding his mower, no lights. A Dodge Dakota, a truck traveling And the overtake the mower and hit it instead. And the man was transported to the hospital, but he succumbed to his injuries.

The 36-year-old driving the pickup, now this gets even crazier, that man had a DUI. I'll be damn. So I'm just one thing after the other. So just stop it. Stop it. I got to tell you,

those are some pretty big beans that fell her head to be driving a lawnmower at night with no lights on a busy road. Like, he was apparently, inebriated the other guy's inebriated everybody's inebriated so uh let's see oh let's um oh let's do this one we've the lawnmower in here a couple times let's do a florida man oh she looks crazy a woman poured acid on this florida man and she has since been charged with

his murder he was asleep this is newport ritchie this florida man was asleep the lady poured acid on him as he slept at his home. She's now charged with first degree murder and aggravated battery causing serious bodily injury. She poured acid while he was in bed, then barricaded the bedroom door, and then

called 911. Her mugshot is don't care. Look at that. She don't care about that at all. They found the man in the home. He had serious severe chemical burns. They had an airlifted him to Tampa General. And he succumbed to his injuries in just days. So

yeah, I'm not actually ever going to do this, but when I hear stories of this, I'm like, where are the hell people getting acid that does this? Where do you get that? Now, I don't want to get it, but I'm like, like, how does it get poured on you? And then you can't possibly survive that? Like,

that's some powerful acid. Yeah. I mean, it's like alien blood from aliens. Just saying. By the way, Alien Earth, if you haven't watched that series, it's phenomenal. It's so good. Oh, my gosh. It's about aliens. It's fabulous series. It's so good. Let's see here.

Oh, am I going to have time for one more? There's a woman who sued a dairy farm in the wake of a raw milk outbreak.

Look, it is your responsibility to make sure that the products you're consuming, especially when you're doing a raw dairy farm, which sits outside of particular levels of licensing. You have to make the decision on that kind of stuff, right? So I don't know. Do you think that she has grounds for a suit there? I don't necessarily think that she does. I really don't.

Juan, I'm really sorry because I wasn't going to have it in this hour, but I'm doing it. it's the uh they what do they call her blade uh i think they called it all to call her a badica junior honestly uh but it's a blade threat girl 14 years old so let me set this up

i don't know if you've seen this video or not but it was in dundee and the cops were called to st anne lane cane it's the lucky area of dundee and it was on a saturday evening 730, right? Somebody called the police and they said, oh my gosh, there's a girl who's got a bladed weapon. And they said it was a 14-year-old. She was charged in connection. Now, here's where we got a lot of questions. I'm like, wait a minute.

Someone was recording her. The area that she was in is where a guy was murdered in a knife attack just like a few months back. Like literally the street right behind her. and some people were like, oh, well, you know, she, you know, she should have had a knife, et cetera. I want to know who the foreigner was who was recording her. So an adult male was recording her and wouldn't leave them alone. And she, it didn't, I mean, we don't have anything in the lead up to this. It didn't seem like she was bothering anybody.

I am less concerned. I mean, I, if she was my daughter, hell, I'd give her a gun at this point. Proud of her. because she stood up for herself. She has these adults, this adult man, a strange man following her in a park and filming her in an area where there have been attacks

from illegal immigrants on younger people. Okay. And I don't think she's brain... I mean, in the video it just looks like she was carrying it. I necessarily don't think that that's brandishing because she had them in her pants. And I... Apparently, some people were saying that

they were carrying them because they were carrying them because they were protecting themselves. And everything that I've seen, I just can't believe she was charged. And I want to know why there was this grown man filming her. So the thought, and I was looking at a lot of the, a lot of the press about this, they were saying that she was trying to protect herself

because she felt that this guy was trying to harm her, is what the story was. That's the Scottish son wrote about it, et cetera. The problem is that she was being harassed on the street by what sounds like an adult foreign male. And she did not produce the blade, according to their account, until he started unrelentingly harassing her. Now, that's the story. And so she gets charged in the adult male harassing the minor doesn't. This is how you get conquered.

I mean, why is it that a 14-year-old girl has to do more than a lot of the men in that damn country to stand up for the women and girls pushing back? That's my question. I'm going to tell you what, this is my country, and I had people, I mean, you see it in Rotherham in parts of Britain. Telford, there are different areas in the UK where young females have been systematically targeted, exploited, and trafficked. I mean, this has been going on for 20 years. And we're not talking about like five or 10. You're talking, you're getting into the thousands. That's how bad this is.

This is not a joke. It's not an exaggeration. This is literally what, this is what is happening. And now it's, it's a, it's imperiled a lot of these. The Rothrum abuse, the background to it. It's the whole child's exploitation scandal. And I mean, there's, they had over. the Guardian said it was over 1,400 young girls, but other news entities say it's higher than that,

the trafficking and the sex exploitation. And it's all Pakistani grooming gangs. I mean, without exception, I think that the lawmakers, the British lawmakers and politicians who didn't do anything because they were more terrified at being called racist than they were protecting the girls, I think they're culpable in all of this. But they say, said that it had ever, I mean, it was taxi drivers, it was everyone. One girl who was telling her story to the telegraph, she was 11 years old, and she was stalked and harassed by Pakistani grooming gang. They said her story is not unique. She is one of over 1,400 children who were sexually exploited by gangs, and this is the telegraph. I want to point out the telegraph is a very left-leaning paper.

They were exploited by gangs of predominantly Pakistani origin men in Rotherham from 1997 to 2013 until a report finally revealed the scale of abuse. They had the National Crime Agency investigation. They identified over 300 suspects. Taxi drivers who were really involved in trafficking the victims have come under scrutiny. They had over 25 taxi drivers who had their licenses pulled because of it. There were hundreds of other taxi drivers, many of them Pakistani that were going to protest because they didn't want to have to install CCTV into their cabs to keep kids safe to keep women safe this has been happening so bad the people didn't do anything the school failed her the law enforcement failed her uh all of this and this um they they they they get these

girls they get them in compromising situations use it against them and then they get them addicted to cocaine and amphetamines, and then they rape them, and then they sell them off to get raped by all these other men. And this one woman's story is apparently the story of thousands of girls, over a thousand girls. So, now you understand why it's not unusual for a young female in the UK to be very uneasy with the fact that a grown foreign male is following her and harassing her and recording her to the point where she feels the need to present a small hatchet. And I'm going to tell you something. If this had been in the United States and someone was aggravating my daughter, that person would be going back in a body bag to their family.

The UK allowed itself to be raped into submission. It is the rape of the UK. It is the rape of Europe. It is a conquering. Absolutely. And people were outraged, not even making this up. We've told you these stories that there would be at all any punishment of the people who were doing this. Do you know that one of the defenses was, oh, they just didn't know.

Their customs are different. I kid you not. Nobody said anything because everybody is so afraid. to be called bigoted or racist. Even if you're saying, look, the gangs of people doing this are literally 99% this origin. It's bigoted to what they are doing to young girls. That's bigoted. It's not bigoted to accurately observe and call out this group's crimes.

But people didn't want to speak up because they were more terrified at being accused of the moral failing, that is, bigotry or racism, and then they were protecting their innocent daughters. And this girl had more balls than any of them to stand up to it. So I say she's a little boutica. Lorraine reminds me when Tommy Robinson was thrown in a British jail because he exposed this. They were trying to tell him that he couldn't talk about the grooming gangs in Rotherham. And it extended beyond Rotherham, just so you know. It extended far beyond that and affected many different areas. it is it's incredibly sad it's so incredibly sad and so and looking at this you know this 14 year old girl we saw the video do we have the video i don't know if we can play some of it because there's cussing but maybe we can just show it without the volume did he okay yeah so she's her friends with her and she's yelled they're yelling at this a grown foreign man to leave them alone to stop following them. And he won't. And he keeps trying to get near her. And it isn't until he won't leave her alone that she shows him, okay, I've got a knife and a hatchet. Leave me alone. She's the one

who gets cited. If I was that mother, I'd beat that cop's ass. I would. Oh my gosh. It just enrages me. No one's protecting them. Where's anybody protecting these girls? Where are the men over there? Good heavens have some self-respect. Of course, you know, I got to tell you. Doesn't help the third and fourth way Feminism. You know, a lot of people don't want to step up and help because y'all remember what happened to Daniel Penny here in the United States.

He stepped up and look what happened. New York went after him. Nobody wants to be the hero because heroes are in trouble. So they get in trouble. They're looked at as, oh, you're being a hero. You're probably a vigilante or something. And the other girl that was with

the 14-year-old that was targeted, she was 12. The 14-year-old was the one that was cited. The 12-year-old wasn't cited, but they, and now there's a lot of protests over this. Understandably so. People are protesting what happened. Why were they out, not out there protecting the streets? I read, I saw an X that now men in Scotland in and around Dundee are organizing to patrol the streets to keep it safe. I mean, it's gotten so bad in the U.K. that they can't even put up the St. George's Cross. They can put up Gosen flags,

but they can't put up the St. George's Cross. I'm telling you, it's a conquering. There are more than one ways to conquer a nation. You don't have to use arms. You don't even have to use violence. You can use manipulation and extortion. And that's what this is.

It's a conquering. Our partners that help bring you the program. Keltuck is a Florida-based firearms company. And one of the newest pistols that they have out is the PR 57.

And now all of the news you would probably miss. It's time for Dana's Quick Five. I have to tell you, yes, we did see the Taylor Swift, Travis Kelsey engagement thing. No, I am not going to, it's so annoying. I'm just, it's not going to be one of those things that we talk about. It's all over. It's going to, if you can go and find, look at one of the gossip sites. They're engaged.

You kind of knew it was coming, did you not? I don't mean to sound like a killjoy, but it's just like, okay, we got it. Come on. It doesn't need to be in the news all the time. Gosh, can you imagine the coverage of the chiefs? I know. All right. So let's see. This, ooh, Texas A&M is going to have a Buckees. What?

Of their own? Mm-hmm. What? I don't think the European mind can comprehend Buckees. Really don't. I mean, they've got like a jerky station. They have a banana pudding wall. I was telling a friend of mine who was not born in the United States as a citizen now.

And she was just like, I just can believe they have all these things here. We go in and they have his old. just smoke the meats. It's hysterical. It is hysterical when European people go into Buckees. It is one of my favorite things ever. But they've got, they're going to have three campus stores that have Bucky's stuff. And then they have like a location outside where people can get. I was literally out of Buckees just a couple of days ago. Went in and what did I get there. I had to get the Buckees Nuggies. Got me some jerky. You know, I refrained from the banana pudding wall because that's, you know, a lot. You said Buckees Nuggies, but it's Beaver Nuggets.

No, we're calling it Buckees Nuggies. That's what we're calling it, Kane. We're not calling it that with your Robert Evans glasses right now. I'm not even dealing with you. Stop it. Let's see. We also, a New Jersey man continues, he takes a foldable rowboat down the Hudson River to go to his job in New York. I mean, okay.

There's some places in Sweden where they do those stuff. He works in New York City, but he lives in New Jersey, and he commutes 12. miles down the Hudson in a foldable rowboat that he built with a son. And he has a foldable bicycle. He got tired of the commute and wanted something different. That's going to be a real bummer when it's cold. It's going to say that's going to be a real bummer for him

when it's cold. Let's see. A homeowner shot and killed two men in ski masks in a home invasion who pretended to be officers so he saved everybody some money in time. Guns save lives. Stick with us. All right, I got to tell you. I know we got other serious stuff to get into, but so you guys know I'm going to be going on a boat

for the MRC thing so I'm going to be out next week it's a large boat and I don't do boats I don't do cruises because it's it's oh yeah for the audio listeners that was Trump's building behind him I don't do cruises because it's weird and I just don't and so it's weird because you're I barely tolerate being on

a plane. And going on a cruise, you're, you know, we're going up into a very Nordic area, so hopefully everybody's going to be too cold to be ill-behaved. But it's for the MRC, Meteor Research Center, which is a great organization. And happy to support them. They do amazing stuff. They do news busters, all of this. But I got to tell you, so I had to get, don't laugh at me. You know, I work out and I'm, you know, I like being outdoors, but I don't hike. I'm not a hiker, right? Everyone's like, you've got to have hiking boots. If you're going to Norway, you got to have hiking boots because

we're going to be up in the fjords. It's like Monty Python. He's pining for the fjords. Oh, he's pining for the fjords, Izzy. Can't even pronounce half of where we're going. I'm very excited about the smoke salmon, though. Anyway, so I had to get like hiking shoes. Now, Dana's pretty easygoing, but there's certain

things that I get real boogey about, okay? Like skin care. and like shoes. I'm very boozy. I want to be comfortable and, uh, so we go into one of those, like outdoor stores. I don't want to give anybody free advertising. They can pay. Well, we go into one of those outdoor stores. You know, it's where they have like the camping and the climbing stuff and the biking stuff. There was a guy there, bless his hard, fell over on a bike right in the middle of the store, right as we walked in. Anyway, everybody in that store looked like they were just literally getting ready to run out and go climb a mountain or mountain bikes.

somewhere. Is there a rule where you go into one of these outdoor stores where you have to be wearing all the stuff that they have in there already? Is that a rule? I don't think so. Can you, do you remember when we went to Seattle and we went up there for a market visit and we get off the plane and it was as if everyone was about to leave the airport and go into the mountains and hike with Sasquatch, right? No, without a doubt. I think it was Portland, Yes, you are absolutely right. You're absolutely right. It was one of the craziest things I've ever seen.

We felt out of place. We were telling each other like, everybody here is like they're getting ready to go into the mountains. It's very weird. And the hotel? Yeah. Remember that hotel? Oh, yeah, the hotel was.

Was that that hotel? That was the one where it had. It was like Twin Peaks. Yeah, exactly. I was digging it because it was like Twin Peaks, and that was totally my jam. So I'm in this outdoor store. Can I kid you not?

every every body in the store it was as if they were about ready to go and hike up some mountain that we don't have because we're in Dallas it was the weirdest thing I've ever seen in my life and you know there was a couple of things that I had to get including some hiking boots because I don't hike if you hike I love that for you I love that journey for you it's not my jam just not my thing it's glorified walking i'm totally you know there's certain i like going out and harvesting for nature i like going out and shopping in nature like that's meat for my my fridge and that's my christmas sausage and that's my rug and this is this and you know and then i go back to my hotel with electricity totally fine and i don't care about

getting dirty or none of that but i just you know we invented the house and running water and i like to go back to these things. So, because we're humans and I appreciate all the things our ancestors have done for us. So I'm in here and I'm, you know, looking at these hiking boots and they're all hideous. Go for the love. But, you know, you had to get the ones that are most comfortable. I have no idea what I'm going to be doing. We might be on a glacier.

I have no clue. I might be, I don't know. I'm going to, I was like, look, I want to see some stave churches, creepy blonde kids and a troll. That's what I want to see when I'm up here in Norway and have some of that delicious salmon. I'm all about that. Beautiful country. And so everybody in there. I, Kane, I felt so out of place.

Because I went in and my TV wear. And I was dressed real nice yesterday. Y'all didn't see the whole outfit, but it was nice. It was brown, which is weird for me because, you know, everything I have, I have 5,000 of these black T-shirts. So I was the only person who is not, like, all kidded out in class. I swear to you, there was somebody with a backpack on that they brought in the store that had the rock climbing stuff all over it already.

And I'm like, are you? It's flat where we are for a while. Were they returning? No, they, it's like they legit came in, and they had on the sport sandals. And I'm not going to go into that because I have some family members that wear those, and I don't want to have the drama

of dealing with it after the show. All I will say is that it legit looked like they were just dropped out of an airplane coming from Mount Kilimanjara. and they were in this outdoor store. I was the only person who was dressed like a person that just did not come off a mountain. Is that a thing?

I'm not joking, you guys. Everybody in there, although there was one person to look like a prospector. But I felt like I'm like, nobody comes in here. Do you have to show that you are outdoors? You go home first and change into all your outdoor stuff and then bring it in? Like, yeah, I'm just here to add on my stuff.

I don't know. It was very interesting. to go fishing and camping on occasion, but I don't bring my fishing pole when I'm shopping for more fishing stuff. You know what I mean? I've seen people with lures on their hats before. Yeah, that's not too unusual. Like in the store, like on a weekday.

I'm like, what are you doing? I don't know. I just, it's like a whole culture. And then they had a bulletin board where it's like, this is how you pack a backpack. And I'm like, what? I mean, I can help you with that. What's the struggle here? What are you?

They had all this other, you know, like. how to eat, you know, wildfire and all this. And that's great if people, I have friends who are, they actually do survivalist stuff on the weekends and that's great and I love that for them. But this felt so corporate. You know what I mean? It felt so corporate and so try hard. Like it wasn't the real thing. It was just a corporatized version of what people really do. It was just weird to me. It might be too judgmental. I might be. I don't know. It was just really weird. It was, you know, very different culture shock for me. So, you know, everyone's like, well, when you're out in the day and you're not, because we

have sessions and, you know, I'll be speaking and doing some stuff on this trip. And then a couple times, you know, in the week during the day, you get to just basically go run out into the fjords, I guess. I don't know. I'm going to fall off a mountain or something. Who knows? I'm going to come back with a troll. I'm going to capture a troll.

Bring it back. It will be a studio troll. So it's, it'll be interesting. I'll give you guys updates. Free subscribers over at chapter and verse. You, the subscribers are going to be able to follow along a little bit with some of it. I've never been that far north before either. Guys, it was 76 this morning in Texas and I about built a fire. If it wouldn't my husband yelling at me, like, stop it.

It's 76 degrees. It's going to be 80 something today. I'm like, that's cold. It's cold here, sir. It's cold. It's going to be cold up there and then the days last a lot longer. So it's going to be very, cane. It'll be very different.

Very different. and I'm going to be freezing to death, wrapped up in sweaters and mittens, and I'm going to look like Ralphie's little brother from a Christmas story perpetually on every outing. It's what's going to look like. So it's going to be a lot of fun. Yeah, I'm not going to be able. And like, I'm looking at the hiking pants and all the hiking pants. They make your butt look huge.

And then, like, I don't know why they're tapered like that. They make women look like they're tomatoes on toothpicks. I don't get it. I just, I've got a lot of questions about some of the stuff.
