Absurd Truth

It's his life
mission to make
bad decisions
It's time for
Florida man
All right
So this is a big
headline
It's a lot
To put on the plate
It's like when you're
at the buffet
And you're getting
stuff in your
plate
You're at the cookout
And you're getting
all the stuff
And you got to get
The potato salad
And then you got to
I mean it's a lot
On the plate
So here it is
Ready?
Florida Keys man
Mark's birthday
By doing meth
stealing conch train
picking up riders
fighting with cops
yeah like it's one way
to celebrate your birthday I guess
they found him at the southernmost point
buoy
he told officers
oh wow he looks crazy
by the way the conch train
is literally like a little train
he stole it
the little it's a little
train that's like a little scooter
like glorified golf carts
all linked together
and dressed up like a train
and it says conch train on it
it's one of the very famous
little vehicle
he faces three
criminal charges. Jonathan Patrick Winslow. He's 57 years old. And he went to the
Concor Train Depot, stole it, and they tracked it because it's not like it can go that fast.
And he was also, quote, running it with rock music playing. So the little train that you're
watching on the, that Juan's showing you on the simulcast, he was blaring music and running around
the keys with that. So that's what he had. So anyway, he picked up passengers like random people.
while driving it.
Like, I guess they had no idea
that the guy driving it had stolen it.
And when he finally
was pulled, when they finally
detained him, they said he exhibited rabid
speech and appeared excited. Of course, I would be too
if I was driving the conch train. And
then they said he was going to face charges
because he stole it. And he was like, I just borrowed it.
Osphers. Just merely
borrowed it. So,
then they found a crack pipe on
him. He told them it was a weed pipe
and, or I guess
a meth pipe. I don't know. And they're like,
You don't, I don't know if you, I don't think you use that to smoke weed, but okay.
Anyway, and so he's in jail $60,000 bond.
He has not bonded out.
I told you it was a lot.
We saw his photo, right?
It looked like he got tased.
Do you see his hair?
Yeah, his hair, or he went to the Magic House and put his hand on the thing.
Maybe it was the breeze from the conch train that was blowing through his hair.
I don't know.
Okay, speaking of, oh boy, a visibly, highly intoxicated me and was arrested.
After he threw a concrete, after he threw concrete pipe and a machete.
another machete at a victim.
Edwin Watts, 71 years old.
There he is right there.
He looks like a sad prospector.
Bless him.
Bless his little hard.
I hope he gets a help he needs.
But he got charged with all kinds of stuff.
He, I don't even know where to start with this.
He threw everything.
Literally everything but the kitchen sink.
Concrete metal pipes.
Threw a whole machete at a dude.
And this was in Marion County.
They were called to a home over a physical disturbance.
And they said that Edwin,
Watts was seated on his red ATV at the entrance to the property.
He made an inappropriate hand gesture and blah, blah, blah.
Basically, the guy was drunk as a skunk, noticeably agitated and acting aggressive.
He has no prior battery convictions, but he's in the pokey on a slew of charges.
Let's see.
Let's do the guy who got super drunk and drove into a sheriff's pond if we have time.
Do we have time?
We may.
Drunk Florida man.
His wrong exit, he literally drove into a pond behind a sheriff's.
substation.
It's in homestead. He's from homestead and he was apparently definitely under the influence and he drove
his truck into a retention pond right behind Martin County Sheriff's Office traffic division.
So the pond arrested him.
We have Keltec, the PR 57. It's one of the new ones that Keltec came out with at the start
of the year, the PR 57, which is a rotary barrel pistol chambered in 57 available now and you can
go to your FFL, order it online, have it shipped to your FFL made in the U.S.
from a Florida-based company.
And with the PR-57, they achieve the smaller stature in a number of different ways,
not only with the rotary barrel, but also the unique top-loading design,
which uses stripper clips instead of, you know, traditional magazines.
So if a leftist talks about clips instead of the magazine in this case, they're going to be accurate.
And has an MSRP of only $399, so it's super affordable for everyone.
an easiest field strip available, low recoil for ease of use and accuracy. It's very similar to
my G-43X in terms of lightness and all of that. And so if you like 5-7, this is an interesting
option for you. But it's made in America from Keltec. You can learn more at keltecweapons.com,
K-E-L-T-E-C-Weapons.com. Innovation Performance, KeltecWeapons.com. Tell them Dana sent you.
Isn't this the time that for the summer Blockbuster?
I'd explain to my kids what Blockbuster meant.
Blockbuster is like when, isn't it when they stood around the theater, like lines around the theater, like everybody wanted to go in and see the film?
And so it was a blockbuster because they were lined up around the block.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Has, I don't know, has there really been one?
Like I watched the last Mission Impossible and that was great.
and I went and watched ballerina
and then I watched it again.
I've seen it twice.
It's fabulous.
And I appreciate it.
I told you how she's not like a woke.
Mary Sue.
It's like Linda Hamilton type,
Ripley type female like a heroin.
And that's,
I want to get back to those days.
I don't really know if there is one.
I think they were wanting Superman to be like the next one
and it's not going to happen.
Are you done with superhero movies, Kane?
Yeah, there's so many.
There's,
you know, I think they've extended it.
They went even into,
the anti-hero portion
of it and I think they've exhausted
that too. Like I see it advertised. I'm like
yeah I'm not you again. You know, I just
saw you. Go away.
Well, if you look at the statistics
of the highest grossing movies so far
in just 2025,
it's Lilo and Stitch. It's like
number two. Well, after the
horribleness
with Snow White and everything,
I don't know. I don't know why people decided
let's do this with Superman. Let's
have Superman be woke.
I don't know y'all, but it's getting absolutely savaged in some early reviews.
And I think it really does.
It deserves it.
So James Gunn is directing this film.
He was Guardians of the Galaxy.
James Gunn had his own problem.
Let me just give you some insight a little bit of time ago.
He got fired.
because he had some really nasty posts on Twitter.
And this was back in like 2018.
He, I don't even know if I can read some of what he said.
I don't think I actually can't.
It's like, like he said, oh, how do I, how do I, just really inappropriate stuff.
He had one tweet where he talked about boys.
And another tweet where he was mocking, like literally rape, like saying, oh, the best thing about rape is when you're not being raped anymore.
Like he actually tweeted that out.
I don't know.
And he had a bunch of these.
So he had said, you know, my words at the time totally failed an unfortunate.
I was trying to be provocative and I fail, blah, blah, blah.
And he was like, I'm so, you know, I take full responsibility, whatever, whatever, whatever.
And remember, they were firing, they were going to fire him off a Guardians of the Galaxy and everybody, like,
pitched in and they were all defending him all the actors everybody even chris pratt everybody who's
defending him so he was kind of quiet for the most part just doing his job and then then he's
he's behind the uh camera for superman and it's supposed to be it's supposed to be out when july
11th i think is when it comes out and it's woke apparently apparently even more so than snow white
How is that possible?
So he's decided to make the story about immigration.
He said, quote, well, let's go ahead and hear what he has to say.
This is audio sound by $11 million.
Go ahead and play this.
It is exactly what the movie is about, I think, that, like, we support our people, you know?
We love our immigrants.
We love, yes, Superman is an immigrant.
And yes, the people.
This is his brother.
Is this not his brother, Sean?
that we support in this country, our immigrants.
And if you don't like that, then you're not American.
So that was his brother.
But he also said, quote, he did an interview with the Times of London.
He said that Superman is the story of America, an immigrant that came from other places and populated the country.
And it says, it's a story that for me says basic humankindness is a value in something that we have lost.
Okay, well, I don't, I don't know if he's read the room.
When you look at polling on this issue, especially, I mean, when you're looking at Democrats, you're looking at Republicans, people have no problem with immigration. It's illegal immigration that they have a problem with. And whenever you have Hollywood celebrities or politicians that pay lip service to this issue, no one cares enough about the issue, apparently, to offer that nuance to provide that distinction when discussing it, which then I think they do that on purpose as bait so that they can say, look how mad you are talking about immigration. No, you're conflating two separate things.
legal immigration and illegal immigration.
They're two entirely separate things.
And you're conflating both of them.
And so that's what we're seeing here.
I really don't want to go see it.
I don't even know who, I mean, the majority of the country feels this way about immigration.
And I don't understand why you would make a movie that intimates that if you don't support their vision,
then you're somehow
Yeah, a bigot.
I wasn't going to go see this movie
just because I was, I'm like, I'm so tired.
I don't like Superman.
I'm not a big DC guy, right?
I mean, I'm not a very big Superman fan.
And I get it that, how was it put?
That Superman is essentially almost kind of a mockery of humanity
because he has to pretend to be weaker and lame
in order to fit in with everybody else, right?
and has to hide who he really is.
It's really like an exposition on humanity.
But I just, I don't know, I've never been in, I don't know.
I've never been into it.
Even as a kid, I find it hard to believe that just a pair of glasses somehow keeps him from being noticed as Superman.
Okay, can I interject on that?
Not to interrupt you.
I'm going to let you.
So I've been to events and if I have my hair pulled back, nobody has no idea who I am.
Seriously?
Nobody has any idea.
What?
Yep.
I don't know.
Nobody has any idea.
It's hysterical.
I don't know.
But I didn't, I've never, even as a kid, I'm like, this makes absolutely no sense.
How do you not know that's not super bad?
It's Clark Kent, sure.
But does he not lower his glasses once?
Like, can you not?
Oh, there he is.
There he is.
You look just like none of that ever?
I went, I will never forget, I went to an event somewhere.
I was supposed to speak at the event.
And I got there the evening before and they were doing some kind of reception.
And I had my hair pulled back.
You know, I was going to style on my hair for the next day.
and they weren't going to let me in because they had no idea who I was.
And it was the keynote and it was hysterical.
And then I was like, wait a minute, it's me.
And I undid my hair and they were like, oh my gosh.
I swear to you this happened.
And I have always been endlessly amused by this.
And then I thought maybe I should be a spy.
Maybe I could have been a spy.
If I could just like, you know, hide my appearance that easily, maybe I'm in the wrong line of work.
I don't know.
So that's not the only one, apparently, that they're having problems with.
with the Superman reboot. I mean, first off, I just think that you're, you're immediately running a
foul of the majority of the country and how they view this issue. But apparently, where's this other
story? So apparently, they also have the issue of, what one is this? Pixar. Let me pull this up.
So this is Toy Story, from what I understand. It's Disney. So are you shocked? So fans are upset
because Disney got woke.
And they said that it's supposed to be
Disney and Pixar. They left them
and they left fans in a panic.
It's the fifth one.
This is the fifth one, really?
And it is a snap.
If I can pull this up,
which I'm having a little difficulty doing.
They said that, I guess, like Jesse the Cowgirl
or something is missing in this story.
I don't know. I don't care.
It's a damn kids animated movie.
Why are we making anything woke?
Mr. Mrs. Potato Head are out.
No potato heads.
Buzz and Woody are back.
Let's see.
There's,
and I guess people are mad because it's a binary.
I don't know.
Kane.
Didn't some of those voice actors die?
Probably.
Maybe that's why they're not coming back.
Probably.
I still am upset at the fact they can't originate something new.
They can't create something new.
Why are we always redoing stuff?
That's literally everything.
That's not what makes people mad when they're.
they redo those. I saw a thing on streaming services where it was Anne Boleyn and it was a black
actress playing in Berlin, which, okay, then have a blonde Norwegian play Mulan. I don't care. If that's
what you're going to do, then go ahead and do that. Let's go ahead and like completely remake Black
Panther and make it all pasty, pale, white, blonde people. Right? Go ahead. Let's just go ahead.
I mean, also we just need a more original content. I mean, there's so many great stories from so many
different corners of the globe. Like, why are we rehashing the same stupid stuff over and over and over
again? I just, it's, it's so frustrating at this point. So I, um, I don't know. I'm not going to go
see. I probably, I don't even know when I'm going to go back to the theater to see another
movie. I don't see everything I want to see. I don't suspect it's going to stay in the theater
very long. If they're not going to get the revenue from it and they see that it's just falling off a cliff,
immediately, they may pull it themselves.
Like Snow White. Didn't that get a theatrical release and it came and went?
Yeah, exactly.
Now it's gone.
It'll be on Netflix.
Lorraine goes, to be fair, Superman is an undocumented alien.
Lorraine, he's a Martian.
Un Documented alien.
He is literally like from space.
Now, if someone shoots to Earth in a rocket from space
for the purpose of studying him, I'm going to let him cook, okay?
Let him go.
But if she's right, I haven't seen him.
any superman. What in the world is chat talking about? That's what they're coming up with.
I haven't seen any Superman paperwork. She's probably right. He's undocumented.
I haven't seen any Superman paperwork. It's Clark Kent. I'm an American name Clark Kent.
That's what it is. I don't know. And so they, I, is he, he's a, he's an alien. That's like saying, are we really doing this?
That's like saying Predators is a movie about undocumented immigrants. Are we really doing that?
We really, because let's take it to the full and final.
The Predator was also from space.
This is, the Predator was a movie about undocumented immigrants, Kane.
He was.
Look at all these ignorant people that were fighting him and being rude.
Predator didn't have any paperwork either.
He didn't, did he have special predator paperwork?
No.
Did he have a special predator light?
No.
He was an undocumented immigrant, Kane.
Well, alien, but yeah.
Alien, whatever.
Undocumented alien.
Literally an alien.
Or what about the actual alien?
Well, they were in space.
Aliens, aliens, aliens.
The xenomorphs were in space.
I have no idea how I know that.
The xenomorphs.
But they were in space.
But you know what I mean?
Like, just saying, there's, we got a lot of, what is it?
What was the one that Richard Dreyfus was in?
He made the mashed potato mountain.
Oh, yeah.
Close encounters.
Yes, yes, yes, yes.
Those, that was a movie about undocumented aliens.
They were just snatching people up to be friendly.
Like, how dare you?
You see what I mean?
Like, this is so stupid.
It's a movie.
about a guy who flies with a cape and he wears an adult onesie. Okay? Stop trying to be like,
it's a movie about immigrants. Just shut up and make a stupid movie one of a million about
your superhero dude. Stop trying to make this about a political issue and sucking the joy of
life out of everything that we know. Just quit. Please. We have more on the way. If you've noticed

And now, all of the news you would be.
Probably miss. It's time for Dana's Quick Five.
I'm a karaoke zeppelin for the rest of the show. I'm telling you, I'm such a...
Then I've got to tell you about my soft serve thing that I got. It's just so weird here today.
I have no idea what's happening. All right. So, uh, first stop.
Oh, Poland has reintroduced, uh, border control. Border controls with Germany. Now remember,
let's go back like a year, real quick. When you had different European Union nations that were
freaking out over the
absolute deluge of people coming in from
North Africa, et cetera, and they were going into Germany and Germany was like,
we're not going to respect borders. We're just, go ahead.
You're part of the EU. We're just going to let everyone filter through.
So Poland has reintroduced border controls with Germany in a crackdown.
There are president said it's a poll's first agenda.
And they are not messing around.
Carol Nauraki ran on the slogan of Poland first,
polls first, and defeated the more liberal candidate.
and now they're taking a very, very tough approach,
similar to what Italy's been doing on immigration.
So very interesting.
A man's in custody after he made a bomb threat on a plane
that was leaving St. Petersburg and Clearwater International Airport.
Yeah, you can't do that, right?
Have you ever watched Meet the Parents?
Because you can't even say the word, bomb, bomb, bomb.
Can't even do it.
You can, but not like that.
27-year-old Taj Taylor told another passenger
that his laptop was a bomb during the flight.
Clearly they didn't watch Key and Peel either.
because that passenger immediately went
and told one of the airline attendants
I mean, you would, right?
You would be like,
this guy's got a bomb.
This is like really crazy.
And they were getting ready to take off.
Guys, 27 years old, told the passenger's laptop was a bomb.
And like I'm just saying, I really...
We're going to drags and out.
Sclaughts.
They're not talking about no Terry Bradshaw
or no Terry Cloth.
I'm just saying, you know, you got to drag them.
A man setting off fireworks. This is in Boston, killed himself. I mean, I was just telling the show. Congratulations. Everybody got here with all their fingers and toes intact. Seven-year-old Robert Spagnolo. Well, he was apparently killed by a firework Friday night. According to Channel 10, Boston. It was a fireworks incident. And it was Plummouth County District Attorney's Office. They confirmed it. And they said that he was identified and it was directly involving fireworks. They didn't say like what.
They didn't say if it was, you know, a rum and candle or what it was, but you just do, yeah, it was a big one.
You got to be careful out there.
I do not want to talk about the eel one.
Can we just not?
Are you going to meet me?
You can read it.
Share this one.
This is yours.
No, I'd triple dog dare you.
Well, scientists have found, the doctors have found, a live eel swimming in a man's abdominal cavity.
It was in him.
Swimming around in the abdominal cavity.
You're welcome.
Okay.
This is so gross.
The world's largest time capsule.
I love how that was just the story.
Open to Nebraska 50 years later.
Do we know what's in it?
Probably Kornosker stuff?
I don't know.
What's in it?
No, they just said it was the world's largest.
They had pet rocks, artwork, a teal suit,
Chevy Vega, all that good stuff.
The one place that I have not gotten over my germophobia is going to the airport.
because I told you how COVID ruined me
and when you tell me I can't do something I want to do it
and when everyone was saying like don't touch things and wear masks
I wanted to lick door knobs and breathe everything
out of spite because I'm so anti-authoritarian
but you'll die but at least I won't be under your thumb
anyway so
the security line at TSA
going through TSA has always been heinous
and the thing that I hate most
oh my gosh I'm not going to make it through this
oh
it's when people take off their shoes oh oh it's when they take off their shoes oh my gosh I always will wear socks I don't believe in socks and sandals except when you go through TSA and I hate having I'm a woman I hate having to tailor a whole outfit around my TSA shoe policy you know the worst is when you're behind somebody and they take off their shoes and they're standing on the tile floor and then when they move you can
see the heat and sweat imprint of their wet socks on the floor and you're like,
then they make you stand.
Oh!
I used to pull me out all the time.
When they make you stand on the thing and they're like, put your feet on the yellow footprints.
And I'm just like, I don't think your machine is going to break if my feet aren't on the
yellow footprints, you know?
So, and you're going to put your feet where their feet were.
It's so bad.
Anyway, apparently you're not going to be required anymore to do that.
Thank God.
Why were we required to do it in the first place?
Was it because of the shoe bomber?
That guy?
I think it was the shoe bomber guy.
Pretty sure.
So they're ending the requirement to remove shoes during airport screenings,
and I guess it's effective immediately.
This is my favorite.
Someone said, quote, I flew through LaGuardia this morning,
and when I went to take off my shoes,
the TSA agent yelled at me like I was a crazy person doing something totally
really unexpected.
What's the font you used to get that kind of accent?
I don't know.
It's the girl accent.
Everything's a question.
Oh my gosh.
Welcome to my home.
But I, I, because you would have to take off your shoes and put them in a bin that you were
supposed to put like your phone and wallet and stuff in.
So I don't know.
did it work? Did it actually stop anything? I don't know if it stopped anything. But I do think
some TSA is really nice. Like Dallas has some real nice ones. Some of the TSA agents are, I think it's a
completely useless agency that should be abolished and all those people relocated elsewhere.
But that said, there's some really nice agents in Dallas. But what I don't like, and I have
noticed whenever I would go through New York, it's like this. Remember when they have some machines where
you don't have to take out your laptop and then they have other machines where you do and you're just
supposed to magically know this when you go with their security line and they're like,
what are you doing?
Don't take that.
And they're like yelling at you and you're like, I don't know what the rules are because
that machine, they're all taking their stuff out.
I don't know that I don't got to take it out of this one.
It's just, you know, you're supposed to magically know this stuff.
So I don't know.
But it is so nasty because that was the nastiest thing ever.
I will never forget.
I almost ripped a man's arms off and beat him to death with him one time in the security
line because he took his dirty shoes off his name.
nasty feet and he put them on top of my blazer. I was going to like for a business meeting.
And I took his shoes and I flung them across the thing. I'm not even kidding. It's probably on
camera. And I go there was a spider is what I said. It's totally lied. But I was and I looked at me again.
I was like, don't I go get your own Ben. And he was like, oh, I was going to put them. I'm like,
I will literally break your face off into dust. Don't. I will murder you right here.
Let's not. Yeah. I just can't deal with it. Oh, it makes me sick.
sick. I'm not sure since they implemented that policy of taking your shoes off. Did they discover
shoes that had bombs in them ever? Like, no. Not one. Now I'm going to wear them. Not one time.
Don't get me, CIA. No, I don't know. I just, maybe we should just get rid of the TSA altogether and have
privatized security. Oh, no. Sounds like it would be the best answer. But I don't, Congress can't even
cut nine billion, so I don't expect them to do this. All right, today's stupidity came.
Oh, it is our very own representative.
at the national level, Representative Eric Swalwell.
What's your favorite name for him?
Smells bad.
Farts well?
I think it's Fartswell.
So here he is.
Look, this is all authentic and right off the cuff and avant-garde guys.
He's got a camera guy waiting for him to pretend ambush him.
Look and listen to how authentic this is.
Hey, Congressman.
What's going on?
Hey, Congressman.
What's up?
Hey, Congressman.
What's happening?
You're everywhere, man.
Hey, Congressman.
What's going on?
Hey, Congressman.
Hey, what's happening?
Hey, Congressman.
What's going on?
Hey, Congressman.
Oh, that's on, man.
Train takes.
Hey, Congressman.
What's happening?
Oh, no, no.
Excuse me, mister.
I mean, it's like the intro of a sitcom where everybody stops individually and they look at the camera.
