I mean, a few days ago, Biden talked to Netanyahu.
Apparently, he got some commitments from him to open up the borders more, to allow more humanitarian aid.
The New York Times just reported a few hours ago that that may not be happening or happening to any significant degrees.
So I think the president is right. There's got to be a ceasefire.
The world has got to respond in a dramatic way to get food to stopping people.
It's not only food.
When children are dying of malnutrition, it's not.
just food, you need certain types of food. The medical facilities have been destroyed.
But I'll tell you this also, Chris, we have the president is Warnk. You don't have to be
begging Netanyahu to doing anything. We are supplying and have supplied Israel with huge amounts
of money for decades. Right now there is legislation that would give Israel, and I voted against
that legislation, $10 billion more for unfettered military aid. The president has got to say,
sorry Netanyahu, you are not getting one penny.
more until that situation
in Gaza radically changes. We're not begging
you anymore. We're telling you. You want
money? That's what you got to do. End of discussion.
I just want all of these
desiccated old
clown turds to figure out
what they're going to do with regards to this
because, and to stop telling a country
what they can and can't do in terms
of self-defense. I talk about this same
damn thing every single day.
Literally nothing changes.
It is so annoying. I, you know,
it's incredibly frustrating
to be a news commentary and try to come and I'm supposed to blow smoke up all your asses and tell
you that something's changed every day and it hasn't. It's the same stuff. We still have a pathetic
house. We have weak Republicans. We have Republicans that are going to run to the center on life and
everything else because everyone's more, they try to say it's about votes, but it's about power
adjacency. And that's just the God's honest truth of it. So it's, you know, what are they going to
figure out? They're going to let their allies, their only ally in the area. What? And Bernie
Sanders, I'm supposed to listen to this. Anti-Sstanders. I'm supposed to listen to this.
Semitic Communist because that's exactly what he is.
I'm supposed to listen to this guy.
Good heavens. Welcome to the radio show. This television
simulcast is just a sidebar of this. So it's radio. So if I don't look like, you know,
a foxified, face filled, whatever, then get over it.
Dana Lash here with you.
Yeah, whatever. Dana Lash with you. Welcome to the radio program.
And with all of this, this is just some of the latest recovery. I also saw, I don't know if you
saw some of Joe Biden's tweets this morning. Why are they trying to
bring guns up into this stuff.
Why are they trying to make a second
amendment issue about why are they
doing this? You don't know if you guys saw this
and we're going to talk about this more later on. He had
tweeted about this licensed gun dealers in
America. He'd tweeted about
his complete lack
of understanding as it relates to
really the way the law works.
I mean, I don't know how else to put it.
I mean, I guess the way that the law
works, it's just
amazing to me. So this is just some of
stuff we're talking about. So now apparently Israel is concerned, or they're preparing, I should say,
they're preparing for this, but they're saying it might be an imminent attack. I think it's just
going to be a response from Iran. And they've cleared, like Tehran cleared military airspace,
etc., etc. You know, I don't know. If they strike, though, we've talked about this. Again,
we talked about it before. We had this conversation. Israel gets to strike back.
That's just the way of it.
That's just the way of it.
They get to strike back.
So they said,
all they closed airspace
for military drills
and Washington warns
and missile barrage
could be imminent.
And blah, blah, blah.
President told
their weird-ass religious leader
over there, and he's weird.
It's, you know, these perverted old dudes
that dress up in bathrobes,
and they sit over there
and they act like they have a direct line to God,
and that includes going and killing everybody
who's not of their particular religion.
I said it,
and it needs to be said.
And Jimmy Carter,
when he's dead, don't expect me to say a nice word about him because he created all of this stuff over
in the Middle East. I'm not going to be like all these people on television worried about kissing the
ass of their masters with their contracts and saying flowery things about this guy. This guy created
this problem over in the Middle East that generations later people are dealing with. Jimmy Carter
never had to send any of his grandkids over there. He never had sending any of his kids over there.
That peanut farmer who had lust in his heart, he never had to go and deal with any of this.
So they created this problem
They created it
They created it
So this
Beginning
They because there was the attack on the embassy in Syria
News agencies said Tehran's airspace was cleared
Then they backtracked the whole
They didn't backtracked the whole statement
Did you guys see that?
They posted something up
And then they deleted it
Internet's forever
I don't know how many times we've got to tell you people
When you put something up on the internet
it stays up on the internet.
It's literally never, ever,
nothing's ever going to happen with it.
It stays up there forever.
Everyone will remember.
The other thing we're watching today,
who's going to find the real killer now?
OJ Simpson's dead.
Who's going to find the real killer, Kane?
The juice isn't loose anymore.
God knows.
The juice is dead.
Why are you looking at me like that?
Am I supposed to be nice about this stuff?
Am I?
Honestly, though.
Go ahead.
was really sick of hearing all of it this morning, like everywhere. And it was for hours. And then
people would come on TV and be like, he was born in this year. And he played football.
And he did this. And cancer. And don't talk about, though, the fact that he got the vaccine and
then got cancer. Don't talk about that. Well, what is it? He had, what he had? What do you have but
cancer, didn't he? Something like that. So he, I don't care. I don't care. I don't care.
I'm not going to sit here and go through the whole.
I think some of us have, because I was in radio at the time.
I'm going to get a hate you. I don't care.
When his trial, his murder trial was on, I was in radio at the time, and there was a lot of exhaustion from seeing it then.
I think I'm still suffering for it.
I was exhausted just after I saw the car chase.
Remember? I was in high school when that happened.
I was in high school, and I was at somebody's, it was like the first party that my mom ever let me go to.
And it was a friend that had a.
and it was horrible because it was hosted by a friend group of mine.
And the person's house, it was this dude who was going to barbecue.
And it made me think how they did not know how to barbecue.
No one's dad took the time to teach these boys how to barbecue.
Because the chicken that they grilled, Cain, was raw in the middle.
Dude, it was. It for real was.
I legit had to go with a girlfriend down to 7-Eleven and get like actual food because I didn't eat any of that stuff.
Anyway, long story short, it was on the television and all the people who were interested in sports,
which did not include me if it wasn't baseball, were watching, and they were like, oh, my gosh,
and Al Kalinz is driving it, and it's the Bronco and et cetera, et cetera, et cetera.
And, you know, he's fleeing because he stabbed Nicole Brown.
Oh, made me think of something.
He stabbed Nicole Brown Simpson and her friend Ron Goldman.
You know, Cato Caelin follows me on Twitter.
He does?
Yeah, I just made me think of that.
Cato Cail.
He's the one that knows more than anybody else.
Cato Cately knows.
Just saying, he lived in the pool house.
He's the guy who looked like Christian Slater.
He lived in the pool house.
This is legit all I know.
I never cared enough to actually dive deeper into this because, hi.
But he lived in the pool house, and I remember everything going on trial,
and I remember him being on trial, and he looked like Christian Slater.
That's all I remembered.
And Johnny Cochran delivered sound bites that last still today, decades later.
But I remember watching the whole SUV chase, and that's when I learned how much California
loves SUV chases.
California, they love two things.
They love telling you what highways to take to get to places.
It's their favorite thing ever.
That actually is true.
All of my California friends are like that to an annoying degree.
And including God-love him, Kurt Schlichter does it too.
Kurt Schlichter does that with the roads and that.
But they also love car chases.
It's like in their DNA.
Like, it's like, if you're Californian, you do that.
You love car chases.
You'll stop whatever you're doing.
It's the aerial footage from the helicopter.
Yeah.
And they, what do they have like a helicopter over there watching the guy driving on that?
Watching out of Calleons?
Oh, yeah.
All those traffic.
I don't remember how it ended.
But I just remember that that's how I was at a friend's house, not eating raw chicken,
and I was watching this play out on television.
So the juice is dead.
There you go.
You know, I'm not going to sit here and.
spent all hour talking about it's because I just don't care. I don't care. I really don't.
You know, uh, what, what, Kim Kardashian's dad was like part of his legal team. That's all I remember.
And then Johnny Cochran, if the glove don't fit, you got to acquit.
Ghaly, he was like the prince of attorneys, wasn't he? You must acquit. Yeah, yeah, yeah, you must
acquit. The, uh, South Park episodes on that are amazing. So that's, I think almost all everybody was
was talking about today. I kind of like the personality that he became like over this last
couple years. When he was out in the golf courses looking for the real killer?
Yeah, where he was, it was just funny to see his tweets and his video posts and stuff.
So I'm not unfeeling as it relates to his death. Oh, I am. I'm not going to sit here and pretend I give a rat's backside.
I don't care. Okay. But why should I? It's a lie. It's a sin. What? If I pretend to care.
That's true. So don't pretend. There you go right there. Say one of us is being honest with you guys.
I'm being honest. I'm not pretending. You bleeding heart. You bleeding heart. I'm not pretending.
Look at you over there. I just.
So sad.
You sad about the juice?
Why do you do that?
You sad about the juice, King?
All right.
We got, so that's, I swear we have more than that, but I had a remark on that because
it's weird.
It's like whenever you have these iconic things that happened in your childhood or your young
adult years and then they circle back and now you're dealing with it as you see it,
it comes back up as when you're an adult, it's a weird thing, right?
It's a weird thing.
So this is some of the stuff that we're all watching today, including everything that's,
you know, because we've got stuff that's going down in D.C.
And the fighting with that.
They're, again, fighting over, I swear to you.
I swear to you, I swear to you.
They're fighting over the house chair again.
The reason I'm holding my coffee right now is because I'm trying not to punch anything.
And also, I need all the caffeine just to help me chill out today.
They're fighting again over the house chair.
So you, you're okay over there?
I can't just got a migraine.
I think he's stroking out and dying.
It's like they want to lose.
They got one plus majority.
They want to lose.
You have one plus majority in the house.
What do you think you're going to do?
What are you going to do?
It's like, I don't know.
So that's, that's some of the latest stuff.
And then, of course, we've got some culture.
We've got the weird things.
Biden had some pretty bizarre moments at the state dinner.
They had the state dinner, Japan state dinner.
Okay, we got to talk about this too.
This is the other thing.
I had this listed.
So I have two separate rundowns.
I have the rundown with everything so it doesn't distract the guys.
And then I have the proper professional rundown.
Everybody's been talking about Jeff Bezos's fiancé's dress.
What's her face?
Lauren Sanchez.
Everybody's talking about her dress.
And they're saying that it was inappropriate for the state dinner.
I think it's inappropriate that Bill Clinton was even there at the state dinner.
So I don't want to give no, I don't give a rad's backside about Lauren Sanchez's dress.
People are mad because she's busty.
And that's ultimately what it is.
people who are mad because boobs are back.
Thank the heavens.
I am not going to say a single thing against it.
It's about time.
I'm tired of these emaciated waifs.
Thank the heavens.
So she's wearing this dress and it was red and it was like a corset and people are saying that
it was inappropriate to wear for a state dinner.
I just, you've got Bill Clinton there.
Bill Clinton's there.
And it's hosted by a guy whose daughter said,
showered with her to the point where she was afraid to go to the
the bathroom and she had to take showers at night, pages 63 and 64 of Ashley Biden's diary.
But no, we're going to get upset about Lauren Sanchez's dress. Shut up. We've got more on the way.
We're going to head into headlines. It's a banner day here. It's a banner day, guys. Goldcoe,

American jobs are good, bad, and ugly.
Don't look at that headline number that the politicians are spewing on TV.
Although more Americans are employed, they're all working for the government.
Even worse, most of them are part-time employees.
Check out the Watchdog on Wall Street podcast on Apple, Spotify, wherever you get your podcast.
And now, all of the news you would probably miss.
It's time for Dana's Quick Five.
I'm not talking about O.J. Simpson dying again. He's dead. Move on.
California isn't, it's true. It's up here. I put it in here. And I don't know why I did that.
California isn't tracking homelessness spending or whether it's working because that's, you know, that's government.
So in California, what they're doing is they're spending, they're basically spending money on, just handing money out to homeless people.
And they said that they forgot, they basically forgot to keep tabs on it.
They forgot to even check with the agency in charge to see whether or not they established a process for keeping tabs on it, according to the free beacon.
Who do they think they are?
The Pentagon?
Yeah.
Who do you guys think you are?
Pentagon, Department of Defense.
Come on.
They, oh my gosh, over the past five years, $24 billion.
And they have no idea for how much money they've really actually spent on it and where it's gone to.
So there you go for taxes.
Add that to their $75 billion deficit.
$73 billion budget deficit.
So they, yeah.
So they have a, they had a ballot initiative last month where they had to vote on like $6.5 billion to borrow for their bankrupt because it broke.
But yeah, they have the intra-agency council on homelessness.
That's it.
We're going to come back to this because I'm fascinated.
I can't.
They have no, they didn't track anything.
They have no idea.
Monopoly movie.
Oh, they're going to ruin this.
Monopoly has added Barbie producer.
They're going to make a Monopoly movie.
How much you want to bet they're going to be hating on capitalism?
How much do you want to bet?
How much do you want to bet that it's going to be a movie railing against capitalism?
You know it is.
You mean like in an irony way?
No, like in a stupid way because irony requires wit and intelligence, which these people don't have.
Some people thought that's how the Barbie movie came off.
No, I thought the Barbie movie was so contrived.
And I thought that they were trying to be clever with it, but it was so dumb.
It actually didn't.
It was supposed to be a critique on the patriarchy and our, what they think is, you know,
the systemic manifestation of America.
And it wasn't.
It ended up blown up in their faces.
And that's just because it was horribly edited.
Let's see.
A $1,400 SUV payment, $1,600 truck payment sounds absurd, but it's becoming more and more common.
What?
Is it plated in gold?
Are you kidding me?
All right. Costco is selling $200 million in gold bars every month, say estimates,
or you could just go to Goldcoe where you could get a bonus $10,000 in silver.
Potential $10,000 in bonus silver.
I like bonus silver.
Who doesn't?
Yeah.
California is poised for a major earthquake this year.
It says a worrying new study tracking the St. Andreas fault activity.
Unfortunately, they're broke.
The homeless is running the state.
Needles and feces are everywhere.
So will they really notice?
Is it going to be any different from the health?
escape in which California exists now. That's the bigger question. So coming up, Joe Biden lies to you
about gun law. New Yorkers are told to stay away from wildlife because they're trying to make bird flu a thing.
And OJ. Simpson's still dead. Stay with us.
Looking for the drive-through version of the Dana Show? Check out the best highlights from every show
and Dana's absurd truth podcast posted daily from the Dana Show.
Folks, I've spent hours with families who've lost loved ones to gun violence.
They'll have the same message.
Do something.
Well, today, my administration is taking action.
To make sure fewer guns are sold without background checks,
this is going to keep guns out of the hands of domestic abusers and felons.
And my administration is going to continue to do everything we possibly can to save lives.
Congress needs to finish the job.
What is up with their audio?
Pass universal background check legislation now.
Okay, well, I don't know what he's talking about.
That's Joe Biden. He tweeted this out earlier too.
I'm pulling up the tweet.
This president daddy showers here.
As I pull this up, welcome back, by the way.
It's always good to be with you.
Dana Lash here, bottom of this first hour.
And if I sound, I voice sounds tougher.
I'm not sick.
It's allergies.
Texas is hating me right.
now. So Biden comes out, tweets this. In addition to this, he tweets the video out and then he added
this to it, quote, licensed gun dealers in America must run background checks on their customers,
but not every gun dealer who ought to be licensed is licensed. Today, my administration is clarifying
when folks must get their license and run background checks and ensuring that gun show and online
sale loopholes no longer exist. We're keeping the guns out of the hands of abusers and felons.
That's what he says. So first off, let's just do the basics.
dealers already do have licenses and they already are licensed.
There's like a whole federal regulatory thing for that.
I mean, they even clarify how many firearms you have to sell a year in order for you to qualify
you to qualify as a quote unquote dealer.
So if you're selling enough firearms that it accounts for a percent sidebar,
Whether or not you agree with this law, it's not an endorsement of the law for the people that, you know, are the product of incest and they share a brain cell with their family.
It's not an endorsement of the law.
I'm explaining to what the law is that he pretends doesn't exist.
Those are for the drive-bys.
The percentage of your income that comes from selling guns, there's literally an amount that is set and that if you meet that threshold, you have to get licensed.
That's federal law.
And if you don't, then you get the federal pen.
which is pretty serious. And so if you're a seller, then you have to get licensed. If you are making
firearms with the intent to sell, you have to serialize them. All of that's already, it's already
codified. It's federal statute. And I really get aggravated when I hear people call criminal
acts loopholes. Let me ask you this. Say that you get your, your driver's license suspended.
say that you got in trouble because you were drunk driving or whatever, whatever it was,
you ended up getting your driver's license suspended.
So you're not supposed to be driving a vehicle, correct?
Your driver's license is suspended.
You're not supposed to be driving a car.
But you get behind the wheel anyway and you drive your car.
Is that a loophole?
Fair question.
Is it a loophole?
Or is it a criminal action?
Democrats cannot stand calling criminal actions,
actions, just like they can't stand calling criminals criminals.
A criminal action is not a loophole.
There is no such thing as a loophole.
There is no loophole.
I say this as somebody who has bought guns in other states.
I have bought guns all over the damn country.
There is no loophole, whether I bought a gun at a gun show, wherever it is.
There's no loophole.
Now, I could break the law.
And I could buy a pistol in one state and drive it back with me and the other.
But that's not a loophole.
That's literally a crime.
According to federal law, that's a crime.
And there's other crimes.
There's other classification of crime depending state by state that comes into play,
you know, pertaining to whatever state you're in.
Stop calling criminal actions loopholes.
There isn't a space where a criminal or someone,
who wants to break the law can squeeze through and still be on the right side of the law. Every
aspect of it is regulated. Some of us don't like all that. He's trying to scare people into thinking
that there are laws that don't exist so that they give him the power to create more gun control
laws. That's what he's trying to do. He's trying to fearmonger people into thinking that laws that exist
are non-existent.
So that's the first thing.
I don't know why they're still pushing this because he had, what is it, his bipartisan safer
communities act thing.
I don't even know what the point of that was.
They wanted to, they wanted to, and this is something that goes along with that.
They've been talking about redefining or what they say is clarifying what it means to be a seller,
even though it's literally already clarified.
So this was like rolled back.
This law, this act was introduced back in September of last year.
And they, prior to that, I mean, you, you, you, if you're in the business of dealing guns,
you have to become, you have to get an FFL.
FFL, for those who don't know, means that's your firearms license.
That's a federal firearms license, FFL.
And their whole, they're pretending that they're trying to make it, uh,
clearer for people who sell, like they're doing you a favor, and easier, you know, to regulate in
accordance with federal laws. That's what they're acting like they're doing. But now what they're,
they're trying to list like specific things, like commercial activities, even though again,
it's still all regulated. We're all regulated. And they're they're presupposing as part of this,
and I'm looking at it now, that they're they're presupposing that crime is
driven by people who are lying about how many guns they sell or that it's, you know,
it's, or they're claiming falsely that their guns are part of a private collection.
You know what it sounds like?
It sounds like in a way they're trying to describe what gangbangers use for the black market.
Do not forget that back in 2016, under Obama Biden, the Department of Justice conducted
a survey of a couple thousand felons who were in state pen and what they discovered is that
the majority, and by majority it was like over 93% of these people get their guns from the black market.
They were asking these convicts, where do you get your guns? And they're like, we get them on the black market.
Why does the black market exist so that they don't have to go by federal regulation?
Do you think that by adding more federal law that that's going to make the black market cease to exist?
Has it ever? Has it ever? At what point do criminals go, okay, that's a number? That's a
enough of the laws. I guess I'll follow them. That's not how this works. You don't just keep
throwing dumbass laws out. And then you think that a criminal is going to give up and be like,
okay, you beat me. I'll follow them now. That's never how that works. But what it does is it ends up
punishing law-abiding people. And that's the whole point of any of this. This isn't about reducing
crime. It's not about reducing quote-unquote gun homicide. This is about spanking law-abiding people.
This is about taking guns away from you people, from us. Not about going after criminals.
because if they were serious about going after criminals,
you know what?
The guy and the girl
who opened fire in broad-ass daylight
in St. Louis on Cherokee
for Cinco de Mayo last year
and shot people on camera,
they would have had the book thrown at him
instead of being able to walk by the prosecutor.
That kind of stuff.
That's what I'm talking about.
You would have the same 1,400 people
driving 96% of the city's crime in Chicago.
They would be working to end recidivism.
They would be working to end
the endless cycle of street to prison, back to street to prison, back to street to prison.
They would actually be going after people who commit crimes instead of wrist slapping or just
letting them walk. They wouldn't be allowing them to plead down to nothing. They'd actually
take an interest in protecting the innocent. But see, you can't, you can't say that you're
serious on crime or serious on quote unquote gun homicide and then not follow up on that end of it.
because they're not serious.
This has never been about protecting you from criminals.
It's always been about empowering the criminal.
They want to use them as unofficial attack dogs to keep you in line.
That's the reality of it.
It's a criminal enterprise.
You have people pushing this rod of restorative justice because they want to use the criminal element
as their muscle in the streets against good law-abiding people,
and that's God's honest truth, and you know it.
And then they want to use them as an example as justification for taking your guns.
I mean, it would be brilliant if it would.
wasn't so stupid and so transparent. But they are, they still go out and they sell you this line
anyway. They were trying to say, they, they were trying to redefine what they considered to be a
business transaction or a commercial transaction of firearms. You want to know what they were
trying to redefine it as? They were trying to say that if you made any money off of it at all,
then you're a dealer. Even if you sold it because the way that, and it's still federally regulated,
If you are, if I wanted to sell,
Kane and I both live in Texas,
I know Kane's not a prohibited possessor.
If I wanted to sell Kane a gun, it's my own property.
If I wanted to sell him like my shotgun,
I could sell him my shotgun here in the state of Texas.
I could sell my gun because it's my private property.
We're both domiciled here in Texas,
and we are completely both able to sell and own.
Now, if I had any suspicions that he wasn't,
I couldn't do it.
And if it came out later that I knew and I did it anyway,
well, that's where federal law comes in.
You get slapped with a major, major penalty in prison time.
But that's not what's driving gun crime.
That's not what's driving it.
It's black market purchases and repeat violent offenders.
So I'm not even going to engage in that stupid straw man.
But what they're trying to say is that even if I made $5 off that, they would try to say that I'm the same thing as Keltak in Florida, making firearms or FFLs down there selling firearms.
anywhere, your gun store selling firearms.
If you made $5 off of one sale and you only ever sold something in your state legally one
time, then you are a dealer.
That's what they were trying to change the definition to.
Isn't that something?
They want to push everybody into having to register their guns with the government because
that's the only way you can do the quote unquote universal background check,
which is the other thing, the UBC's.
Universal background check can't operate without a registry.
Federal law prohibits a registry.
You cannot run a background check on every.
single gun purchase in America unless the government knows what every single gun is that is owned in America.
They would have to change federal law to make that happen. By the way, some states have already incorporated that states like California. And guess what? The last handful of mass casualty incidents have been in states that have universal background checks. Have those worked? The answer is no. Because do you think that a criminal is going to go through a background check? Again, you're presupposing that criminals are suddenly going to follow the law. You think they're going to follow the law?
I got bridge to sell you.
No, they're making it to where at some point they want to trap law-abiding people into a crime that they just decided to manifest into existence.
Criminals are always going to keep purchasing stuff off the black market.
That's never going to change.
But we're in an election year and they need something because the economy, hell, they can't sell you on the economy.
My gosh, they can't sell you on foreign policy.
So what are they going to do?
Well, they gotta scare you about something.
Don't buy the hype.

Like Sands through the...
hourglass. So are the days of the United States.
Take a look at the things that they're rolling back. Remember I said ages ago, you know,
they, in their minds, they want to bring slavery back. They're okay with it. Because you see,
things change. You know, one of the good things about the Supreme Court is you can fight
to make sure you make stuff better. You don't generally fight to make stuff worse.
worse.
It's Whippy Goldberg saying that
Republicans just want to bring back slavery.
You know how many producers
they have that work on that show?
Oh my God.
Like 30.
I know this because I've been on it a couple times.
The guest hosted it before.
I know I did not want to work there full time.
The amount of producers
that they have for that show
because you'll have, you know, several producers
per segment,
they hand them a packet
of information about,
every single topic they discuss.
They even come up with the questions,
and they have these index cards,
and they print out the questions in large font,
and they tape them to the card,
and then you get a stack out.
That's what those cards are.
They're printed out questions taped to the index cards.
You don't even have to include any thought at all whatsoever.
And still, with all of that,
you get that kind of content,
where the most they can
give you an analysis
is that Republicans,
the people who were on the side
of the abolitionists and abolitionists
themselves, who literally
fought against Democrats to free
people in the United States,
are on the side of Democrats
and want to bring slavery.
What?
That's even make any sense.
That's like the level of analysis
that you can get.
And that's even with all of the
age.
that the production team hands them.
I mean, and they'll come out
and they switch your cards at.
You don't even have to get up
and get rid of your cards.
They send someone out
and they will hand you a fresh stack
every segment.
How are they all still angry bees?
I mean, I don't even know how you can...
It's so easy that job.
Maybe that's why they're mad
because they can find stuff to rile them up.
They're so bored to tears
with what they do
that the only way they can get
any kind of enjoyment out of it, is to find something to rile them up and get all mad about.
But that's no joke.
That's literally what they do every segment.
And you're supposed to ask the questions that are on the cards.
And they list, they'll list, like when they do their hot topics discussion, you get a packet.
And every single topic they discuss, you don't talk about stuff that's not on the packet.
Every single topic that's discussed has bullet points for everything.
You don't even have to come up with your own observations.
You can just read and take turns.
You know, you guys can just take turns reading out of the packet what you're going to share.
I'm not even joking.
That's how they do it.
So you would think that that would give them more brain time to come up with analysis better than that.
But I guess not.
You know, it is.
It is what it is.
Just wild.
It's just wild.
So some of the stuff we're going to talk about here coming up, Andy McCabe is defending FISA.
We're going to discuss that, get into all of that.
some of the latest also with
2024
and as well as
Gaza, Israel, and Iran
going to discuss that.
And how people in Biden's economy are being
forced to choose between
feeding themselves or feeding their pets.
We've got that. We're also going to talk about the
masters. I don't know anything about the masters, except
that they have a
soap opera theme song.
And it seems
like the
boogiest thing I've ever heard of.
And I only found this out because Steve told me he was doing a master's event this weekend.
And they had an actual master's themed drink.
And I thought, what?
It's like the derby, right?
We're going to talk about all this as well.
And we're also going to get into that trans report coming out of Britain that has entirely blown up trans activist argument in terms of transitioning kids.
And it's vindicated people like J.K. Rowling.
This is stuff that we've all known anyway, but still.
So we're going to talk about all of this and more coming up in our second hour.
Don't go anywhere.

And you're right, Jim.
some, anyone who has been a consumer of the intelligence that Section 702 provides us,
and that, of course, would include former President Trump should understand the significance of that.
And then let's overlay on the time that we're talking about right now.
Israel is at war with Hamas.
Hamas, we know, has a presence here in the United States.
The idea that we would turn off the prime vision, the prime insight that we have into terrorists who are over
overseas terrorists like Hamas terrorists who may, in fact, be talking to people in the United States and planning activities here.
We don't know that, but it's certainly a top priority for the FBI right now.
The idea that we would turn off that flow of information, which is entirely lawful and has survived every court challenge, is just astounding to me.
There is no one in the community, in the intelligence community, who would support such a thing.
Well, here's the problem with what Andy McCabe is saying here.
And welcome back to the program, Dana Lash, with you at the top of the second hour.
This has to do with that Section 702 reauthorization in the FISA bill.
There was discussion as to whether or not they were going to make some changes regarding warrants to spy on people.
And as Massey noted, it wasn't, there's a difference in voting on the bill itself and then voting on, you know, provisions like 702, which is what they were doing.
it wasn't like a vote on the bill. It was this, there were six amendments that were that were tied to this proposal that were dealing with warrants as it relates to Section 702. And that was the amendment that specifically dealt with a requirement for a warrant. And there were some other, there were some other things as well attached to it. But Thomas Massey was explaining the procedural votes yesterday and how you had 19 Democrats that voted with 19 Republicans that voted with Democrats to stop the,
warrant amendment to FISA from coming to the floor. And there were, you know, there's a lot of
Republicans who are very opposed to warrantless surveillance. And there's a reason why. And let me just
explain this to you. This was the surveillance program that was authorized. Section 702,
FISA stands for the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act. And it was about tracking
foreign spies and terrorists, right? It wasn't supposed to be used.
used against Americans. It's not supposed to be something used to track your phone calls and your
activity. It's your emails or electronic communications. But that's ultimately what it turned into.
It changed into this thing that absolutely took a warrantless examination of Americans' electronic
communications. And I'm not the person who's saying this. That's a certification report from the
FISA court itself, as well as a White House advisory board that was back in 23 of last year.
So in that, there are a couple of other third party reports that came out detailing the abuse of this.
All of this first came out back in 2019 when the FISA court demanded that the FBI submit a plan.
to fix some of these problems that came to light after the 2016 election when you literally
had this exact same abuse that was weaponized against Carter Page. This is what we talk about
when we say that FISA was weaponized against, you know, average everyday people like Carter Page. He
was a Trump campaign aide. And they were, they weren't investigating, and this is what's,
this nuance is important, they weren't investigating whether or not Carter Page,
was compromised by Russians.
They were concerned with creating the narrative that Carter Page was compromised by Russians.
It was so bad and the FBI cut so many and Reason Magazine listed all of the corners that they cut on the applications and the information that they omitted.
This is how bad it was.
Carter Page was a CIA asset against the Russians.
The FBI, because they didn't do their due diligence, omitted all of this.
in pursuit of a narrative that he was compromised by Russians.
That's the truth of it.
They were trying to keep that, you know, kind of on the download
because you don't want your operatives, their identities exposed
and have it be blasted to the world.
And that's what came out in that audit.
That was the Office of the Inspector General
for the Department of Justice.
They found that the FBI constantly made errors
in their warrant requests to FISA
when they were demanding surveillance
of Americans. And so it was from that in 2019 that the FISA court demanded that the FBI submit
a very formalized plan on how to fix their inadequacies. And that's when Chris Ray came up with a
40-point training plan to correct what was, this is reasoned from January 16th of 2020,
a 40-point training plan to correct FBI surveillance procedures so they were compliant with
privacy protections for Americans. But yet, none of that actually came into play. That was
all kind of, you know, it took a back seat to everything else. I mean, it is, it's insane the way that
they care. And it was, I mean, they even had a report that came out and said that the wiretapping
of Carter Page, the FBI was trying to say, well, that wasn't motivated by political bias, as though
that was somehow an excuse for the shoddy work that they did in trying to justify it.
Again, he was a CIA asset against the Russians, but that's not what they wanted for the
narrative. They needed for the narrative. And remember, what was all this fueled by?
What, how did, how did we get to the point where you have the FBI abusing and FISA to spy on
Carter Page? You guys remember? It went back to some of the reports about Carter Page and Russians that
appeared in the press. Now, where did this come from? Huh. Those were stories that were planted by Fusion
GPS. Fusion GPS, which was an unregistered foreign agent,
lobbying on behalf of Russian oligarchs. They worked with discredited British spy Chris Steele and Russians
to try to push this stuff out about people in Trump's orbit. And who were they hired by?
Perkins Cooey. Who's Perkins Cooey? That's the third party law firm that was hired by Hillary
Clinton and the DNC. And we know this because they got fined for not claiming it as a campaign expense.
That's how all of this came out.
So you can't say that they didn't weaponize it for political means because they, it was literally
financed by a political campaign.
And all they knew was that, why does this guy seem to have some Russian connections?
Why does Carter Page seem to have Russian connections?
This is all they knew.
Well, they didn't know because he's a damn operative for the CIA against Russians.
And that begrudgingly came out when they tried to get him.
Imagine that.
Imagine you're the FBI and you just got owned by the CIA because you try to compromise one of their operatives for Hillary Clinton and the DNC.
That's literally what happened.
And it was made possible with the abuse of FISA.
So, which brings us to this back to our current position with Thomas Massey explaining that it was a procedural vote.
It was a difference in tactics, he says.
And they were trying to throw a wrench by.
preventing this from coming to the floor.
Thomas Massey was getting some criticism because people mistakenly thought that he voted
with Democrats.
Democrats did not want the amendment on FISA to come to the floor.
Massey thinks that the whole damn thing needs to be tore down and redone.
Democrats want to be able to have warrantless surveillance.
There's the difference.
And they want to, he says now they could suspend the rules and pass a worse FISA.
He says they could make some improvements and some concessions,
but he's like, well, maybe or let the Senate move first on it.
I mean, it's kind of wild.
And then he noted, and this was last month,
that while they were winning the debate on warrants for domestic spying,
that's when the speaker yanked the bill and canceled Congress for the rest of the week.
Remember when they canceled Congress?
I sent everybody home.
There you go.
So it's not done.
yet. But there is, the whole thing with the Trump campaign, you should, I don't care if you like
Trump or hate him. If you don't believe that the government should be spying on Americans motivated
by politics, you need to be into this. Because it doesn't matter. One day it's Trump,
the next day, maybe it's you. You don't know. The whole, all of the requests, and this is what the
inspector general and IG report into this, the investigation into this is what they found.
The entirety of the FISA claim laid on the dossier that was being laundered through the press as evidence.
The entirety of the claim for warrantless surveillance.
It was the Chris Steele discredited dossier.
That, if you remember, while the FBI was trying to use that to get FISA to grant them surveillance,
the FBI refused to verify a single damn thing in the dossier.
They would not verify it.
Do you remember back the emails between two agents
where they were actually questioning the veracity of the claims made in the dossier?
But they were told to shut up and go along with it anyway.
The reason that we know a lot of this is because there were some good people.
There were some good people in the FBI.
There were some whistleblowers in there who were like,
oh, hell no, this is not what we signed up for.
Absolutely not.
some of them lost their jobs because of it.
They lost their pensions.
They lost everything to blow the whistle on this.
And Democrats don't want to have a discussion about it.
And the reason they don't want to have a discussion about it
because it literally shines the light,
the glare of media cameras,
on the fact that they actually weaponize surveillance
to discredit and rob you of your vote in 2016.
Because they were trying to,
they thought if they could make this
argument about Carter Page,
then they could make this about Trump.
They could blow it up and then show that Trump
was somehow compromised.
But can you imagine,
how much of a smacked ass
did that FBI agent that first found out
that that was actually a CIA operative
against Russia?
How dumb did that guy have to feel?
I mean, this is like a television.
It's like a television show.
He was immediately protected, though.
Oh, yeah, he was.
Is that not the craziest thing you've ever heard?
The CIA actually has
to go, are you kidding? You stupid
morons.
You remember when, who was the
chick came? Where they were
trying to say that her cover was blown.
Joe Wilson's wife.
Let me pull this up.
I remember, oh my gosh, when I first got into
a radio, this was the big story.
She was the
spy. She ended
up doing a vanity fair cover. Valerie
Plame.
So Valerie Plame was a
pencil pusher. And they tried to make it out like she was like the Lara Croft or the CIA. Remember this?
And this was during the end of the Bush administration. And she did this whole like vanity fair cover
story and all this stuff. But when, I mean, she kind of outed herself. But when her identity came out,
and I think it was, it was like a Washington Post column or something like that, oh my gosh, they freaked out.
How dare you, how dare you show, you know, you blew the cover of our operative. How dare you? How dare you?
Where was that at with Carter Page?
And that was actually worse because he wasn't a pencil pusher.
We got a lot more on the way, including, real quick, that big trans story that just blows apart all the claims about kids transitioning.
We got that for you.

So New York, Elvis impersonator died.
He died after being chloroformed during a sexual encounter.
A retired chiropractor from upstate New York
apparently killed an Elvis impersonator by chlorforming him to death.
That is a crazy way to go.
A crazy way to go.
They said that this 69-year-old bound and restrained this impersonator on April 5th,
dosing him to death with chloroform more than once, apparently, according to court docs.
And then four days later, he went to the Saratoga County Sheriff's Office and said there's a dead dude in the basement of his home.
And that's how it all came out.
That's crazy.
What a horrible way to go.
The, apparently, the story is that the wealthy are building passport.
portfolios. Collections of second, third, fourth,
citizenships in case they need to flee their home country.
Apparently, they had noted Peter Thiel had added citizenship in New Zealand.
Eric Schmidt had citizenship in Cyprus.
They said the top destinations for supplemental passports are Portugal,
Malta, Greece, and Italy, according to Henley and Partners,
which tracks this stuff.
Passport portfolios. Interesting.
The price of Godiva chocolate boxes are going up because Cocoa prices.
are soaring.
Oh my gosh.
Really?
Yeah, they said they're going to rise
because surging cocoa costs.
The London-based company
that owns the chocolatier said
they're still finalizing pricing plans,
but they said,
expect percentage increases globally
to average in the high single digits.
They said that occasional customers
will likely stop purchasing
and units will decline.
They're planning for that.
But currently,
18 pieces of Godiva chocolates
that weigh about 7.7 ounces.
Retails for $36.
And that's the pricing they said is ultimately going to be up to retailers,
but that cocoa prices have more than double this year.
That's over $10,000 a ton.
And it's been a third year of shortages from cocoa beans from West Africa,
which is the world's top growing region, crop diseases, all of that stuff.
So they said it's very volatile.
Wheat, palm oil, sugar, dairy, cocoa.
They said all of that's seen a lot of instability.
And of course, all of that's, you know, required for making this stuff.
Scrabble introduces a less competitive, more inclusive version because people are stupid.
It's what it is.
Everything they touch turns to absolute garbage.
So apparently, according to New York Post, Scrabble is making historic changes to make it less competitive and more inclusive because they want to appeal to stupid Gen Ziers whose parents failed them in life and should be barred from ever having children again.
They said that first time in 75 years are making a change to this game.
and they're going to have helper cards, a simpler scoring system, you know, for our dumber
society. Everything's dumb. I wouldn't buy them.
Don't it down. Don't make people smarter.
Yeah, heaven forbid you expect people to remain as smart as they have historically.
Heaven forbid, you know, you do that.
We have more on the way, including that trans survey, that study, which is blown up,
the activist trans-left narrative. We'll discuss that coming up.

He had just bought his new car three days before that, and he was just riding around in his car.
He said, Mom, go for him, and they killed him. They killed.
Um, wow. So that's the mom of Dexter Reed, who says that, you know, the police.
just, you know, he was pulled over. He wasn't wearing a seatbelt and the police killed him.
That's the story. There you go. No more of the story. That's all you get. That's all you get. He got
pulled over for a seatbelt violation and they shot and killed him. Huh. So there seems to be,
first off, welcome back to the program. Dana last year with you. Seems to be a missing part of that
story. I don't know if you knew that or not. So this is, this happened in March. There's body
camera footage of it. And you can see that in the body camera footage, the officers ask him to
roll the window down. They try to open the door because he's rolling the window up. And then
he apparently shot at police 11 times. And it's all on camera. He shoots from inside the car,
apparently first, and then officers are trying to run away and take cover. And then they discharge their
weapons in return.
And the press reported
the way that they reported this, they said
that that
officer shot Dexter Reed 96
times, 96 shots, just because
he wasn't wearing a seatbelt. I'm not kidding you. That's how they're
reporting this. That is literally how this is being
reported. Including
this is from
NBC Chicago. And they're
asking about police use of force
how
officers fired 96 shots.
They tried to surreptitiously correct their subhead, by the way.
But people caught it.
That's the way it's being reported that, oh, 90, they fired 96 shots at him.
They pulled him over because he wasn't wearing his seatbelt.
What they failed to say was that the first shots came from Reed and 11 of them were from Reed.
And they only, you can literally, if you, you can slow and do frame by frame of the body camera footage.
And you can see that they only drew down on Reed after.
Reed fired at them.
He started or after he
started, he refused to comply. He rolled his
window up. And
the guy, the police officer
who was conduct, because it was a traffic stop,
he was totally normal
drawing in a, you know, he's
acting in a normal manner.
And apparently
he saw Reed take
his gun out, which caused him to draw his
weapon.
And by the way, do you realize
too that
Dexter Reed was already on a pre-trial release because he has a long record of violent crime.
And some of that violent crime involves shooting.
He apparently already committed another one shooting already.
And he was on pretrial release.
So one of the things that we don't know is when he was pulled over at that point, had officers already run his plates?
Did they find this already?
do they find that he was on pretrial release and that he had a string of violent felony convictions?
I mean, this guy's a repeat violent offender.
He's literally the guy that drives crime.
When we talk about repeat violent offenders, it's this guy.
So did cops, like, run his plates and find out, oh, my gosh, this is the guy.
He was, I mean, he's on a pre-how are you on a pretrial release and you've literally been involved in a,
you committed a shoot, you shot somebody.
You're on a pretrial release.
You have a string of violent felonies and you shot somebody.
body. And even after, honestly, after Reed refused to comply, I thought officers were still cool.
But the way that the cop acted, I mean, the way it went is that he apparently saw Reed's gun in the car,
which is, which grabbed, he went to, but Reed already fired the first shot at him before he could get shots off.
And that's when they were running and taken cover. I mean, you literally would never, if,
if you were just reading the, and going by the news.
reports the way it is, you would not know that he, that Reed, shot and injured officers first
before they ever fired a shot. That's what happened. He drew his gun and he fired and
injured officers before they could even take cover. And you got this mother coming out there,
you raised a criminal. That woman raised a criminal. She's going to act like she's going to fall
down and do all this stuff. Girl, you are not the victim.
stand the hell up.
Maybe raise your kids a little better.
Maybe raise them.
Are you not supposed to say that stuff?
Because I'm tired of people raising thugs and criminals.
And that's what it is.
I don't care what you are.
I don't care what age you are.
I don't care what background you are.
This is ridiculous.
Stop enabling this stuff.
I mean, a friend of mine noted
and was putting out,
put this out on X,
the Washington Post took eight paragraphs to mention
that Reed
fired the first shot.
Don't you think that's
kind of important
when you're trying to get
a George Floyd
2.0 narrative going?
Now look, I think it's,
and I've always been
straight no chaser,
I call balls and strikes.
I ain't in nobody's pocket
and ain't nobody in my pocket.
And there's good policing
and there's bad policing.
I know this.
I don't need lectures
from anybody on that.
Everybody can take a seat
in front of me on that
because I stood on a stage
with a bad cop
who tried to blame me
for his bad cop behavior.
so I know it exists.
And I know bad policing exists.
I was on stage with it.
But I also know that good policing exists.
And I also know that in some instances,
people try to take advantage of the times
and they tried to make good officers look like bad officers
when they are, in fact, the victims.
And that's exactly what's happening here.
Eight paragraphs in the Washington Post decides,
oh, by the way, Dexter Reed fired the first shot.
Now, some people are like, well,
why did officers have to shoot that many times?
96 shots and only 11 were Dexter Reed.
What the hell do you think happens?
If you're a cop and you have a violent criminal opening fire on you,
I mean, how many rounds did Dexter Reed have 11?
What did he have?
What, semi-auto?
So at most there's going to be, what, 12 or 15 unless he had one chambered in there?
So, I mean, he pretty much did a mag dump himself.
You're going to sit here and credit, what did you think is going to happen?
You got a criminal that's going to mag dump at cops?
You best damn believe cops are going to mag dump in return because that's what they're trained to do, eliminate the threat.
They're not going to sit here.
Well, I'll shoot his calf and then I'll see what happens after.
That's not good training.
That's bad training.
And that's bad training that gets people killed.
And that's bad training that is always advocated by morons that have never fired a gun, nor they've never been in a dangerous situation where they've had to worry about their own safety or the safety of other people.
Those people's opinions are irrelevant to the conversation.
What did you think was going to happen?
Got a guy mag dump at cops.
They're going to mag dump back at him.
So yeah, 96 shots.
Yeah, that sounds right.
Total.
11 of them were reads.
Yep, sounds right.
This was a justified shooting.
That's exactly what it is.
But you have members of the press who are misrepresenting and omitting very important
elements of the story.
Why?
Because they want violence.
They want violence.
They want to watch neighborhoods burn again.
It was a banner year for the press.
They got to go out and report on mostly peaceful protests.
Remember that?
They gave themselves awards for their coverage.
They want violence because they thrive on it.
It makes their year.
They sell ads on it.
They broadcasts from morning until night coverage of neighborhoods.
Interestingly enough, predominantly black neighborhoods whose businesses are looted and burned to the ground.
And then, oh, here's a commercial break.
We're going to sell and make bank off of the strife and back to our programming.
And then there's more looting and burning and glorifying the looting and burning by presenting all of it as just peaceful, protected protests.
wait, oh, here's another word from our sponsors.
Cut to commercial.
They make more money off of it. Then they come back.
That's exactly how it works.
They won it. I don't know if you've seen it. Times are tough for media.
They want it because they need it.
Activists want it because it's an election year.
They can't sit here and sell you on Joe Biden's great economy.
They can't sell you on Joe Biden making the world a safer place.
So what are they going to do?
Oh, can you believe cops pulled over this young man for a SEPA?
violation and they shot him 96 times, shot him to death. That'll happen to you and your kids.
And then they omit that this guy actually fired shots at police first and he shot, he mag dumped.
And then police returned fire only after they were fired upon. And that the guy was a violent
criminal who was on a pretrial release because he shot somebody else just earlier.
They're going to tell you all that. Because see, that dulls the outrage.
That makes people go, oh, wait a minute.
What? No, they can't have you know all that.
No, no, no.
What's important is that you know that it was a young black man and that they were cops
and they're not even going to look to see whether the cops, what the race of them is.
Just assume they're all white.
All old and white.
Just assume that.
Because the media wants violence.
Because activists need a get-out-the-vote mechanism.
You got the mother up there looking like she walks straight off the stage from P-Funk,
sitting there getting all upset.
Oh, and they just shot him.
Mama, you're going to tell the people that he shot at them first?
What was your son doing with the gun when he's a felon?
What is your son doing out driving in his car when he has a string of felonies on his record?
What is your son doing shooting people?
He already shot somebody else.
That's why he's on a pretrial release.
What is he out there doing, Mama?
Some people were saying, well, why did police pull him over for a seatbelt violation?
If you want to have an argument about seatbelt violations, argue that separately.
Don't try to conflate it to think that you're going to make your weak point strong.
You actually make it sound dumber.
How do you expect police to enforce a regulation like that?
If you don't like the law, then change the law.
But you don't change the law by shooting a cop's 11 times.
Unbelievable.
One of the other things that we're looking at is this report that came out of the UK that just destroys the trans stuff.
their national health services, their entire gender treatment model for kids was destroyed in a bombshell report.
They said that teens suffered irreversible changes based on remarkably weak evidence and that the toxic debate has tainted key issues and they also blasted the schools.
It was an independent review by leading pediatrician Dr. Hillary Cass.
It is one of the most thorough, actually it is the most thorough study of its kind.
It was commissioned four years ago.
And she came out and said this is dangerous, that the debate about it is toxic, that if you speak out neutrally in the name of health that you are bullied and singled out, she said there was a lack of high quality research on any effects regarding giving children puberty blockers and hormones.
Of course there's not.
There's no long term studies.
She said long in H.S waiting lists are driving trans kids into the.
arms of private clinics and that practitioners are pressured to prescribe.
I mean, it is devastating.
And it vindicates a lot of people, including J.K. Rallying.
It's his life mission to make bad decisions.
It's time for Florida, man.
Oh, man. There's one story that I really would read to you, but I can't.
Actually, I'm going to. I'm going to do it.
This is a bad one.
Let me see.
How do I...
So, everybody knows what that grinder app is, right?
Kane, tell people real quick.
What, G-R-I-N-D-R, what that grinder app is.
It's a dating app.
Four?
For the gays.
Typically.
Men.
Dudes.
So, some dudes in Miami
messaged another dude on the grinder app,
and they...
offered him money for a service.
And things did not go as planned.
I'm not sending one there.
I'm not sending one in this story for them to put a smug shot.
Things didn't go as planned and the men wanted their money back.
And they used a toy gun to hold the dude up.
The reason apparently that it didn't work out as planned is because the victim had a dysfunction.
of some sort.
And so the service could not be rendered.
And then the toy gun was produced, and then that's how it all happened.
All for $80.
It was a toy revolver.
It's weird.
I still have questions.
Do you, though?
It was a toy revolver, and it was put to the victim's head.
And he was told, you're not going anywhere.
I want my money.
And then when the victim goes, well, then shoot me.
They were like, well, toy gun.
So, they ended up being taken to jail in charges of false imprisonment with a deadly weapon and battery.
So that was real, even though the gun wasn't.
So, I mean, there's some advice here somewhere.
Just, you know, I just put that out there.
South Florida homeowner, you know, because it is Florida.
Barking dogs alerted the South Florida homeowner to an 11-480-pound gator in the back.
backyard of his farm. Tim Nygan was able to capture footage of the 11-foot 480-pound reptile.
They had to call a trapper along with Miami-Dade police to get him. And I love the guy, his name is
Todd Hardwick of pesky critters. He says, it's typical this time of year. This is what he goes.
This is what he says. Oh, this is a little male gator. He's over 11 feet, and he got out of the canal
last night. A little, a little gator. It's 11 feet. 480 pounds.
What does he think a big one is?
I'm just, that's kind of terrifying.
I'm got to be honest.
They said that the metabolism increases in the warmer weather, longer days of daylight,
and he goes in, it's breeding season.
He goes, so these male gators are out here looking for the female gaiters.
So he's on, they don't have grinder, the app, you know, so.
Well, that would be a dude gator for a dude gator, wouldn't it?
So Tinder is that, isn't Tinder the, for the straits, as it were, right?
I don't know how this goes.
I can't
I can't even talk about this story.
I saw this last night and I don't even want to look at it.
I tweeted out the sheriff though.
A man was caught on camera violently stomping on his dog in Fort Myers.
Lee County Sheriff Carmine Marseino said that they got a call from a good Samaritan.
They were recording 20-year-old Beckham McCloud, B-E-C-H-A-M-M-C-H-A-M-M-C-L-E-O-D as he stomped and kicked his nine-month-old pit bull.
The guy was taken into custody.
The dog's in arrest.
you. I cannot tell you the horrors I've wished upon this dude. I tell you what. That guy's also
never going to be able to own a dog again, said the sheriff. I mean, he was really abusing this dog
on camera. It's horrific. So thank you, Sheriff, for stopping that and making sure that this guy's known.
Stay with us. Third hour on the way. Prime Minister is going to travel to North Carolina
tomorrow to visit that project. Don't stay. Don't stay. We need you back in Japan.
Wow. They'll probably try to keep you. Rude much. Don't stay. Get out.
chimney Christmas. That's Biden to Japanese Prime Minister, Fumio Koshita. They had a big state dinner yesterday. Welcome back to the program, by the way, Dana Lash with you. They had a big state dinner yesterday and we've been talking about some heavy political stuff, so I kind of want to lighten it up, although it's kind of cultural. First off, welcome back to the program. Dana Lash with you, top of this third hour. And the state dinner, I've never been to a state dinner. I don't know that I'd ever want to go to one because making small talk is my nightmare.
And you have to do a lot of it at these events, right?
It's one thing if you're talking to like a bunch of people all at once.
But if you're at like a fancy state dinner, I'm just awkward with some of the stuff.
Because I'm literally exactly what you see and how you hear me is exactly how I am in real life.
And at some of these, I've only been to, I think, two kind of fancy functions in D.C. ever.
And I don't like going to them because they're weird.
because you get all, you get dressed up and you go to these events and everyone is like a stuffed shirt.
And I'm a very assertive person.
And it's, I don't know.
I don't know if I make people feel uncomfortable or what.
I just find the whole thing amusing.
And it's just, I can't stand it.
It's just bores me to tears.
I can't stand it.
So the state dinner, they have this big state dinner.
I say this because maybe that's, I have a little bit of a different perspective of this than a lot of the people that I see writing about it.
So they had the state dinner.
And for the state dinner, they bring everybody in.
It's almost like they formatted after what the royal people do over in Europe.
Like they enter, this is the Duke and Duchess of Fart Knocker, you know, blah, blah, blah.
And they come in and they sit down.
And they introduce everybody as they come in.
And so they, as they walk in, there's like this photo op.
Like you have, what do they call this?
Came the photo wall in the background.
And it's the state dinner of prime minister.
And they come in and they take pictures.
so you had Bill and Hill come in.
I don't know what she was wearing.
Hillary Clinton.
It looked like a sofa slip cover made by Kath Kitsyn.
It's a British textiles designer.
It was weird.
I don't know.
And then they, you know, they got, you know, all these people,
they get all these people that, you know, lawmakers.
And then if it's a state, when it's a state dinner for whatever country that it's usually a state dinner of,
They have, you know, I guess people that are adjacent to that or involved with that country or something like that.
Well, they had Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sanchez, his fiance, come in.
Jeff Bezos, you know, owns Amazon.
And he used to be a dork.
I don't know if you've seen earlier pictures of Jeff Bezos.
He's a bigillionaire now.
So he can do whatever he wants.
He's got blankie money, right?
He didn't care.
So he's like probably doing like the hormone therapy and he's doing his weights and he's all jacked up.
And he's got a shiny head.
and he comes out, because not, you know,
bald is not necessarily a bad thing.
I mean, everybody's seen Billy Zane.
And so he comes out and he's, you know,
and he's got Lauren Cianches with him.
And she's, her dress is a nice dress.
The question is whether or not it was appropriate
to wear to the state dinner.
And everybody has been railing on this lady
saying that she looked like, you know,
like a skank.
And it was like a, it's like a corset dress.
And it has like a slight fish tail
the bottom. It's very fitted. It's an off-the-shoulder dress. It is very low-cut. It is low-cut.
And she is very well endowed. And so she's in this corset dress and she wears it to the state
dinner and people are saying that it wasn't appropriate. Now, my first response is, well, it's a
dinner full of a bunch of horrors anyway. So why are people getting all upset about it? That was my,
I mean, you come in after Bill Clinton for crying out loud.
Or actually, I don't know what the order was, but you're at an event with Bill Clinton, okay?
You're at an event hosted by the president, who was literally accused several times in his daughter's diary of showering with her as a teenager.
And she said she was so uncomfortable with it.
She would wait until late at night to take her showers.
Now, Kane, you thought that Lauren Sanchez's dress was maybe not.
I said that the top looked a little lingerie.
right?
Yeah.
Like, that's all it said.
Yeah.
Not that I didn't like it or anything, but the state dinner, look, if you're trying to act
like this was like the moral decay of the state dinner.
Right.
Let's be real about it.
Exactly.
Let's be real about.
Actually, I changed my mind.
Hillary Clinton didn't look like she was in a sofa slip cover.
She looked like she's wearing a notorious calf tan that's like 10 sizes too big for her.
If I'm being honest.
actually I don't think
Natory would make that hideous print
I just insulted Natory
their body doubles look pretty good
yeah the body doubles are really
they're really pulling their own right now
aren't they I'm telling you
yeah
you know I'm sure Bill Clinton
made a B-line for Lauren Sanchez
you know he did
you know Joe Biden
they probably kept him away
he was sneaking side-eye views and stuff
he was doing that he probably wouldn't even
it probably wouldn't even side-eyed
and you know they kept
Biden away because if
Biden looked at her then the only thing he would say
after his boobs. He wouldn't say anything else because his brain works that way. I'm just saying,
I just don't know, because I've seen a lot of people complain about it. And like you said,
if all the moral rot that's at the state dinner, that's what people are getting upset about,
for real. I don't know. I mean, it's, I don't have a high opinion of people in D.C. anyway.
I'm just like, the only difference between people in D.C. and actual prostitutes are
prostitutes are honest about being prostitutes. You know what I mean?
Whereas in D.C., they act like it's, like, virtuous because, well, we're in government.
Who do?
Good job for you.
Is that, I mean, I, it's kind of a jaded view, but doesn't make it any less correct.
Right?
So a few other things I wanted to touch on here.
A couple of things.
The, can I mention really quickly, since we're talking about people's attire?
and because he seems like a very nice fella.
Why are you laughing?
Whenever you say fella.
He's a nice fella.
Yeah.
You're going to come with some stuff.
When you work out, like, let me ask Juan,
because Juan's the one who probably goes to the gym more than any of us here.
Juan probably wears what?
Sneakers, shorts, you know, T-shirt, right?
He, like, dresses to go to the gym.
Now, Lenny Kravitz wears leather pants.
pants, boots, a mesh top, and sunglasses because he's Lenny Kravitz. Now, if Juan was Lenny Kravitz,
one, you would have to wear that at the gym because you can never break character. I got to
give him credit. He posted this video of himself working out. And he's in great shape. Isn't he like
67 years old or something? He's officially a grandpa, like grandpa age. I think he actually is a
grandpa, I don't remember. But he's in leather pants and a mesh top and sunglasses. And I don't even,
that's, that man does not break character. I mean, only Lenny Kravitz works out like that.
Motorcycle boots and leather pants. Only Lenny Kravitz works out like this. I found that hysterical,
but he's like a very nice, he's like a very nice dude. I don't know if you've ever like seen interviews
with him. He's got this whole farm in Argentina and he's, he's like, he's like,
super nice and he's he gets along with everybody doesn't have a bad word to say about anybody he
doesn't get involved in politics he just makes rock music that people can enjoy where did that go
i miss that protect lany at all costs where where i miss that when people just like you know
they filled that void of giving people an escape from something and he's so devoted to it he even
dresses like a rock star at the gym that's what i miss most of about the whole of the 90s yeah
90s.
Yeah, that was back before everyone thought they had to give you their hot take.
Right.
Golly.
It's like if I want to hear like hot takes on politics, I'll listen to like commentators or something, which I don't.
But, you know, I'm just so frustrating.
I wanted to share this piece with you talking about media malpractice.
This was funny.
So NPR, National Public Radio, they apparently tried to attract the free press had a thing on this.
try to attract more black and Hispanic listeners by running endless segments centering on black and
Hispanic voices. But apparently it turns out that only actually white liberals liked those stories.
So they were, they did an overabundance of segments on black and Hispanic stories and only white
liberals liked it. Wow, it's almost like if you just make news or like talk about the news that
people want to hear instead of focusing on hyper siloed racially approached.
things that you'll do better.
Who would have thought that?
Who would have thought it?
They had this guy that said, I've been at NPR for 25 years.
Here's how we lost America's trust.
Yeah, I mean, they did.
I always thought the idea of having a government-funded media entity was weird, didn't you?
PBS and NPR.
I can't tell you how many times when I lived in St. Louis and I used to, I would go do Fox or
CNN hits, I would have to go to a satellite studio.
and the satellite studio that they sent me to
was at PBS
and it was about the time
that the debate was raging to defund PBS
and I can't tell you how
funny how amusingly awkward
it was. It wasn't really awkward I thought it was hysterical
I'm sitting there and I'm like yeah shut the whole damn thing down
and it's literally I'm in there
but it doesn't it always seem weird
and their audience who is their audience?
I actually used to listen to NPR
in the early days when I had hard time sleep
I've literally never listened to them.
And it would put me to sleep in like, I'm literally like less than five minutes.
I was like when, if you're watching a masterpiece and they're like,
and made possible with support from viewers like you and you high five yourself, like, yay, I did it.
But I've always been odd.
I always thought it was odd to have like a government funded media entity.
And then when you think about who watches PBS and listens to NPR, aren't those typically like super far left strongholds?
So what does that tell you about super far left strongholds?
strongholds that that it's just weird they did they had like that this whole content based on
racial divide and only white progressives liked it why is it is it patronizing like Hispanics are
like are you really patronizing me what you're dying it's it's two things it's number one that's
their only audience NPR's only audience is white liberals true that's they act like it's not
And the Hispanics were also a little offended by it.
You mean the Latin ex people?
No, I don't mean that.
The Hispanics people, X.
No, no, not the X.
Oh my gosh, that does say a lot about them.
All right, so coming up, we got headlines on the way.
We'll also, we were talking about some media malpractice,
but we also have to get into some of this other stuff,
whether it's from Gaza and bird flu.
They're trying to make bird flu a big thing.
And now, all of the news you would.
probably miss. It's time for Dana's Quick Five.
So apparently they say storm clouds in the economy may be forming with inflation backup.
Inflation number went down to go back up. It just kept increasing, you ever-loving morons.
The CPIs we talked about that came out yesterday showed that annual inflation ticked up
3.5% in March from 3.2% in February. It's the largest annual gain in half a year.
And the current rate, they're not going to have cuts. We're not going to have those interest rates.
cuts that everyone was saying that we may have or speculating as to whether or not that we would
have. It's not going to happen. Let's see here. Also, this marriage and babies, according to a top
researcher who spent 20 years studying relationships, marriage and babies actually do make women happier.
I think there's something to that. Married women, they said, have better heart and mental health
than single women. This actually goes along with dudes, too. They said that yet young women are
choosing to forego marriage, and that's in an all-time high. And it's, uh, it's,
they said the U.S. is battling an epidemic of sad, anxious young women. That is what feminism has
raw, particularly third-way feminism and even some of the unsavory parts of second-way feminism.
You know, we're not talking about the Susan B. Anthony, you know, let's be able to vote
and make sure that we inherit property and all that stuff. We're talking about we have to utterly
destroy men and even ruin women's spaces by inviting cosplay men who want to dress up as women
into our spaces. I mean, it's made there the idea feminism turned into helping women to destroy
men and the moment that it turned into a destructive force is the moment it began
disserviceing women and it is completely at the matriarchy's hands that women are this way now.
I am not surprised by this. Apple Vision pro users are suffering black eyes, headaches and neck
pain because of these dorky goggles. They are dorky goggles. I mean, let's be real.
They said that several early adopters of the mixed reality headset say that the fit has
been a pain point.
I'm not, yeah.
I mean, if you, it doesn't look like it would be comfortable.
And people are getting like bruising underneath their eyes, like where you would get dark
circles under your eyes.
They're getting bruising.
And they said that, uh, because it places too much weight on your face.
And so after a while it, yeah, like it, that's crazy.
If you could look at it and you could sell, you could tell that without having to strap it to
your head.
I mean, you're literally strapping a computer to your face.
You realize this, right?
You're taking the computer and you're just strapping it right to your face.
Why do you need to be able to do that?
Why do you need to be able to walk around and do that?
Seriously.
Why?
I think it's one of the most ridiculous things ever.
Didn't they try this with the Google glasses and it didn't work?
Yeah.
So why did they think this would be any different?
MSN says that young athletic people are ill with a condition called pots.
athletes. It's not the Vax, though. It can't be the Vax. It's postural, orthostatic tachyocardia syndrome.
And it's when your heart rate goes berserk, but totally not at all from the Vax.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, the completely healthy athletes that were totally healthy.
Up until coincidentally, you know, the Axevei, just saying, we have a lot more on the way.

Potential jurors for the O.J. Simpson case were asked to fill out a 75-page jury questionnaire this week.
In the entire state of California, only one person got a perfect score.
Chao Ming Wu, who, after the trial, plans to attend Caltech.
By the way, you can now purchase a bronze statue of the juice for only $3,395.
And for an even five grand, you can buy one that Al Cowlings has kissed the ass of.
O.J. Simpson's new fitness video was released this week, and hitting the shelves next week,
Simpson's newest video, Dorf on stocking.
Uh-huh.
The crowd is torn.
According to retailers, the most popular Halloween mass this year is O.J. Simpson.
And the most popular Halloween greeting is, I'll kill you and that guy who's bringing over your glasses or treat.
I can watch this. There's like a half hour of him doing this.
As the late great Norm MacDonald, who was a friend of mine, and he actually inspired my third book.
Welcome back to the program. Dana Lash here with you.
He got fired. Norm MacDonald got fired because he wouldn't stop making fun of O.J. Simpson.
He got fired from SNL.
Remember, he did weekend update.
He is one of the most underappreciated comics of our time.
He was so funny and so quick.
It was hysterical.
Like when he would, the last thing he messaged me about was about gold.
Yes.
I don't know why.
Like he, it's what he did.
Like he, we would talk and we'd like message each other every now and then and
we would just like talk about stuff.
And then every now and then he would like send something encouraging.
You know, like, you know, keep it up and you know, all of this stuff.
And it was just so weird.
But when he would ask me a serious question, I literally never knew if he was like,
like pranking me or not.
And it was, you know, I was a little terrified to answer him.
I'm like, oh, my gosh.
But he like was legit.
He was one of the nicest people ever.
But he back when he was at an S&L and he did week and update, he made so many jokes about
OJ Simpson that they told him you've got to stop.
You have to stop making jokes about OJ Simpson.
and and this was like what in 1998
he was hosted weekend update
and
like some of the jokes he said like for instance he goes in his book
OJ Simpson says he would have taken a bullet or stood in front of a train for Nicole
man I'm going to tell you that's some bad luck when the one guy who would have died for you kills you
you don't get worse luck than that
but apparently
Don Olmeyer was the president of
president of NBC's West Coast Division, and he was friends with O.J. Simpson. And Don
O'Lmyer also publicly supported O.J. Simpson during the trial. And so when Norm
McDonald would not stop making fun of O.J. Simpson, it made Don O'Meyer mad, and they fired him
from Weekend Update. And then they dismissed him. They kicked him out of S&L altogether. And then
when Norm
MacDonald came out
with his film
his first post
SNL film
Dirty Work
Olmeyer banned NBC
from airing
any and all
trailers of
Norm's for Norm's
movie.
His upcoming movie.
Yeah.
Yeah.
So, and he
like knew this.
He would go out
and I remember
watching
I was in high
school and I remember
was I was in high school
or first year
college.
I remember
that
because this was even after the trial. So yeah, it was after high school.
Watching SNL to see if Norm MacDonald was going to make OJ jokes because it started getting reported in like variety and everywhere else that, oh my gosh,
Norm McDonald's getting in trouble because he will not stop dunking on OJ Simpson.
Every, every weekend update he did. He had a dunk on OJ Simpson. And didn't he do one whole weekend update where it was just nothing but dunks on OJ Simpson?
because what we played was like a montage, but there's like 30 minutes of it.
But I think he actually did one whole weekend update where he just dunked on him.
And after he was told to stop, apparently the jokes became more and more frequent.
So he just did it more.
He like was he trolled Don Olmeyer.
He trolled NBC's West Coast Division.
Like, come on, I dare you.
It's hysterical.
I mean, it was one of the funniest things.
And he was so dry when he would deliver it.
Oh my gosh.
It was so funny.
I don't think OJ ever said anything about him, but I know that Norm did tweet OJ, and OJ did, he put up this video.
It was June 14th, 2019 that he tweeted this.
And on June 17th, Norm retweeted it and said, hey, OJ, it's Norm.
Listen, be careful about the videos you put out there.
I recognize the golf course behind your house, and I know that exact street and could easily print your address.
Of course, I never would, but others would.
Be careful, Juice.
Oh my gosh
I can't even deal with it
I can't deal with it
Oh my word
So yeah it was
That was something else
You cannot talk about OJ Simpson
kicking the bucket without talking about Norm MacDonald
You cannot
It is impossible
Oh my word
Yeah I can't
That's the sad thing about today
Is that Norm MacDonald is not here
To deliver the eulogy for OJ Simpson
Can you imagine
Right now
Can you imagine
Oh my gosh.
I tell you.
It was just one of the funniest things ever.
Yeah, I remember watching that to see,
is he going to do an OJ joke?
Is he going to do?
Of course he did.
It's Norm MacDonald.
It's so funny.
Sidebar, real quick,
and we're going to move on to other stuff.
One of the funniest things I've ever seen him do
was when he was on with Conan O'Brien
and Courtney Thorne Smith was on with him.
And Courtney Thorne Smith was getting,
she had a movie with carrot top
that was coming out.
And if you wanted an example of how quick-witted Norm McDonald was, he was the king.
And his comebacks were, I watched it when it was live.
I mean, I've never laughed so hard in my life.
And this poor Courtney Thorne Smith, like she was on 90210 and she's got this movie.
Yes, Caratop's in it.
And he was making fun of Caratop.
Like Norm McDonald was the first guest.
Then they bring out Courtney Thorne Smith.
And so she was sitting on the sofa and then Norm and then it was Andy Richter, right?
and Norm would not shut up.
He would not stop.
And Conan's asking her.
He's like,
okay, so tell me about your movie
and what's the title.
And Norm goes,
I know the title.
It's box office,
boys.
I mean,
the way he just interjected.
And then they tried to stump him
and they couldn't stump him.
He just was so witty
and so hysterical.
It was one of the funniest things
I've ever seen.
Oh my gosh.
It was so good.
We have it.
I don't know if you want.
Well,
I think we might get dinged if we play it.
You think?
Yeah, we'll totally get dinged.
Juan,
will we get dinged?
Yeah, we'll totally get dinged.
Yeah, we can't. So they're really, even if it's fair use on YouTube, they get different.
We just play the Saturday Night Live stuff. Why the heck couldn't we play this?
I don't know. I mean, we can if you want to. I'm just saying. But what they'll do is they, they try to demonetize or unlist your video because they claim that you're doing a copyright.
Even if you, even if you're just talking, it's so stupid. It's so stupid.
I do remember something like the chairman of the board or something was the name of the movie. And he's like, oh, yeah, board is spelled B-O-R-E-B. Oh, my gosh. It was so great.
so great. I mean, I just, all I want to do today is read all the jokes that he ever wrote about O.J.
That's all I want to do. Anyway, it's because it's just so funny, so funny. So, uh, yeah, you had to,
you had to mention that. We had to start that out. All right. A couple of other things want to make
sure that we hit because Jimmy Christmas. I kept thinking we had a whole other hour and apparently
we don't. Shh, don't tell them. This is an actual real headline from the media. You ready for this?
The solar eclipse will cost America
Almost $700 million in lost productivity
U.S. employers, Eeyore wrote this,
U.S. employers will see at least $694 million
in missing output while workers gaze at the nearly two and a half minute eclipse.
They actually wrote this and published this as NBC.
Yeah.
Yeah.
That's how do you measure that?
said that they multiplied
to get the figure of 7 million.
They estimated that 87 million employees
are working during the eclipse.
And then to get the 700 million figure,
they multiplied the 87 million employees
by the Bureau of Labor Statistics's latest estimate
for average hourly wages.
And oh my gosh.
Some of us talked about it for their show,
so we actually work during the eclipse.
So there you go.
So they used like $8 an hour?
I don't know.
Good God.
what they came up with though that's in bc miserable in bc that's what they came up with i can't i'm
telling you that's that's what they decided that's what they decided so because the people that stared at
the eclipse for two and a half minutes and didn't make widgets cost us seven million dollars that's
amazing so i wanted to tell you guys too beginning at the end of next week i have to do like um i'm like
what do they say you're on call for federal jury duty
for a span of like half a month.
I know.
So if you tune into the show
and I happen to not be here that day
and you guys didn't get a heads up,
it's because I didn't either.
They literally tell you the night before
whether or not you have to show up the next day,
which is great when you work in broadcasting.
You know, it's very convenient
and super helpful.
But people are,
I don't necessarily know
if I'm going to be a great candidate
it because here's let me because let me tell you this the the last time I did jury duty it was for
it was to deliberate and I think I'm saying this correctly the punitive phase like the penalty phase
of this dude's conviction and it was a pedophile it was a convicted child rapist and they were
picking the jury to determine his punishment and they ask you all.
these questions. Now, you can already imagine my state of mind, right? Like literally, Cain, is not what
you see what you get. Like I, it's, it makes problems for you and my husband and everybody else.
So I'm in there, right? And I'm minded my peas and cues and cues. And they make you raise your hand.
You know, do you agree with this or do you agree with that? And they're trying to like see where
you stand on certain issues. So apparently they were trying to deliberate whether or not this
dude's punishment was going to be treatment.
and then prison or maybe prison time.
Like if he got treatment of prison,
he'd get a reduced prison sentence or prison time.
I'm not even joking you.
And I didn't like any of those.
I picked none of the above.
And so they were,
everybody raised their hand but me.
And they were like,
juror number or whatever,
you know,
will you stand?
And then they asked me like, do you,
they were trying to throw some alternatives out
and I disagreed with all of them.
And they're like,
can you state your opposition like to?
Like they were trying to figure out
where in the hell is this,
woman coming from, right? And I just was like, I should probably be very honest. And I go, honestly,
I said, I don't even understand why we're deliberating his punishment. He should have a bullet in his head.
I, you might be surprised I didn't make the jury. Yeah, I'm sure the prosecution was like,
we want her. But defense was like, no, I didn't make it. I just, that's why I don't know if I
would be a good candidate, because I will immediately come in with preconceived notions.
Immediately. I'm not going to, no, I'm not going to sit here and, and especially for like something like that and pretend that it's, oh, one of these two things, no, that dude should be dead. That's the, no, right? I can't do that. I cannot do that. I can't be like, oh, yeah, treatment and reduce sense. No, he should have a bullet in his head. And the dude was sitting right there and I didn't even care. I'm like, no, you need to be told, dude. Seriously, nobody told you. You should be dead. Someone should kill you. Like, you know. Anyway.
He'll get prison justice, I'm sure.
Exactly right.
All right.
Like I said, I'm not going to be a great candidate, but just FYI, heads up.
Follow Dana on Apple, Spotify, or wherever you get your podcasts, because knowledge is your ultimate superpower.
So Steve is all about the Masters, and he says this is the Masters theme.
And can I be honest, I feel like they're trying to sell me a feminine hygiene product, the music.
It's the most bizarre thing ever.
How do you stay fresh?
Is it that time?
Why do they call it the masters, though?
Aren't you not allowed to say that word anymore?
In real estate, you can't say Master Suite anymore.
You've got to primary bedroom.
You can't even, and you know, as it relates to hard drives,
you've got a master and slave hard drives.
You can't call them that either because, I mean, it's what they are,
but because of those words.
I love how just simply changing the word solves all the world's problems.
Oh, but it doesn't.
And also the masters, like they haven't changed the name.
of that. Yeah, what would you call it instead?
Yeah, that's a good question. But Steve said
that they, what did you tell me
the thing about the food that you told me?
Oh, they haven't changed the prices of their snack bar
in like, I don't know, 30, 40 years.
Really?
That's so weird. That's so weird.
Like a total lunch and a... I don't know. Did you say the pimento was?
Oh, it was like a book, like a lunch and like
an alcoholic beverage would be like less than $6.
That's why those people can afford, stay
to stay rich. Because they pay
those old-timey prices.
for their foods.
That's so weird.
I don't get the whole thing.
I don't get it.
And they're trying to make it like all glammed up,
like all these other sports.
What do you mean?
You don't get what?
I mean, you get a green jacket?
Yeah, if you win the masters.
Isn't it like grass green?
Yeah, I guess, yeah.
I mean, it symbolizes the sport.
Where do you wear it?
Two events.
Yeah, and probably.
It's like a Super Bowl ring.
You wear it when you go to.
big events and things?
No, you do not.
You don't wear it to
when you go wash your car or whatever,
but you wear at special events.
You're not going to wear like a nice, like, you know,
black jacket.
You're going to wear your green golf jacket.
Yes.
With the appropriate event.
I'm killing some people out there.
I'm fully aware of this.
But you have to understand.
My understanding of this is like how a Martian
would approach it.
I don't know anything.
Here's another shocker.
The lowest score wins.
That's weird.
I don't get that.
So weird.
Because my first goal would be like,
my score's too low.
I've got to get it up.
I got to win.
That's literally what I
would think. I don't know anything about golf. I know nothing about golf. I have never,
I was on a golf course once and I almost ran a golf cart with back when I was in St. Louis
Kane with the station's PR guy in it. I almost, almost dumped it into the pond. Yeah. I remember
those days. Yeah. And they were like, no, can't, you can't let her drive anything. Because I was surprised
that the brakes aren't actually brakes, really. They don't work like brakes work. No, they don't. They just,
they just stop acceleration.
So if you're going really fast over a hill.
Yeah.
No.
If you're Duke boy in it and that golf is, you know, there, yeah, there it went.
All right, today and stupidity came.
What do we got?
All right.
Looks like we have Clyburn here.
This is cut 11 one.
If you don't go ahead and play this one.
He's saying an abortion ban should be waking people up.
Listen to what he says here.
Much for having me.
Well, I would hope that this decision
there in Arizona
will wake people up
to exactly what's going on
He's implying it's going to wake people up
as though there's, you know,
this abortion issue is going to be the number one issue.
This is what Democrats want as we roll into November.
So pay attention to the details.
Yeah.
And Lorraine adds that she brought my book,
hands off my gun, to read while she waited for jury duty.
Maybe I should do that and, you know, to signify.
I'd be a good candidate.
Yeah.
Have a great night.
