Here's a headline for you. Wife accused of killing husband after he threatened to hurt her dog. Cedar Falls, Iowa, an Iowa woman is charged with murder after shooting her husband earlier this week. Cedar Falls police say officers were called to a home Wednesday night for a report of a domestic dispute where someone had been shot. When officers arrived, they found 72-year-old David Allen Charlton dead. His wife, 66-year-old Kimberly Ann Charlton, was taken into police custody at the scene. According to a criminal complaint, Kimberly Charlton told investigators

that David Charlton had attempted to physically assault her while in the bedroom when the family dog stopped it. Authority said David Charlton left the room, got a walking cane in return threatening to hit the dog. He then followed the dog out the door to the room and down the hallway. The complaint stated that he was walking away from the room. Kimberly Charlton grabbed a gun from a Crown Royal bag and pointed it at his back. Kimberly Charlton told officers that she warned her husband that she was going to shoot him if he did not stop following the dog. The 66-year-old admitted to pulling the trigger and shooting David Charlton in the back. Kimberly Charlton has been charged with first degree murder, a felony charge that comes with an automatic life sentence if convicted in Iowa. I'm on her side. Don't fuck with the dog, dude. And she gave you ample warning. Dogs don't deserve that shit.

Like, I like people that come to you and say shit like, oh, do you value a dog's life more than a person? So you're goddamn right I do. I watched a video real on Instagram the other day. It was a video of this puppy, this little pit bull getting adopted after being in the shelter for like eight months. And when you see the joy on this dog's face for getting adopted, like I was watching this in the shower for like eight months and when you see the joy on this dog's face for getting adopted like I was watching this in the shower because I watch reels in the shower because I'm a degenerate of a human and I was watching this reel in the shower and when I tell you I started crying in the shower when I saw this dog get adopted and he was smiling and she was smiling she'd been there for like eight months I think that's

the next move I want to make whenever we move get a house and everything and get settled in somewhere because I think Ross wants a friend. I think we need to adopt like the longest like the dog that's been in a shelter the longest and see how happy he is because no offense to Ross but Ross lived in a house right like Ross had like a foster home that he lived in so So Ross doesn't know the hard-knock life of being stuck in a shelter every night. He lived a nice life with this nice lady who had multiple dogs. Then he comes here and he kind of carries himself like someone who's never really had to experience the hardship of being like in a kill shelter. Now to be fair, no one knows Ross'

backstory. So Ross could have been out on the streets for a time because I think the animal control found him. So he was obviously out in the streets and he was emaciated so he knows that life but he doesn't know the life of being in a shelter for eight months because he got to live in a house for a while with someone so he doesn't really know that. Like I still want to see the joy on a dog's face. Not like when you find them at a PetSmart or something like that, you know, when they're out there with these

kind of like trendy, you know, places that are like these trendy dog adoption places. I'm talking like a city pound and like you're just happy to get out and I want to see that and I feel like pit bulls always seem happy and I know that like look some pit bulls are not nice and bad things happen with some pit bulls and there was always that risk but this was an adorable pit bull and she was so sweet and she was so happy to have a house now. I like I want to experience that

like I like like we adopted Ross and Ross was almost kind of like I kind of like where I am. Why are you taking me away and then like Luther always loved us but I always felt like Luther felt he could be somewhere better too like I need a dog that is just so committed to me that they feel so lucky that I adopted them that they feel indebted to me. Like I don't feel like Ross feels indebted to me. I think Ross is like, somebody would have adopted me and if not I would have stayed in this nice foster home forever and there were other dogs that I could play with there, Dad, and they don't shit me off to daycare that I don't want to be at, Dad. So I don't know. But anyway, I'm on that lady's side for shooting that guy. Don't fuck with dogs. More to come.

Other headlines that are interesting. Here's one for you. Now this is like my ultimate fear in life. This is one that goes down as when I looked at this story, I was like, oh yeah, this is not one that this is like a fear that I've actually had. It's nothing that's happened to me, obviously, but it's a fear that I have had. And let me get the actual headline for you so you guys can get that. Here we go. This is from CBS News. Texas woman dies from brain eating amoeba after using tap water for sinus rinse. Ma'am, everyone

knows, and I'm going to guess she used a neti pot or a Navage. By the way, navaaj is just a wonderful sinus clear it's like a neti pot but like an auto neti pot like you know you put the two little things up your nose and you hit the button and it just like flushes all the shit it's an irrigation system it's a nasal irrigation system and it is spectacular I would urge anyone that has sinus problems to get a Navage, but there is something you must know about the Navage. It is recommended that when you use a Navage that you use clean water, bottled water, sterilized water in the same way that it's

recommended that if you get a like a vaporizer or whatever to use, you know use sterile water. Like when you go to Walmart, you go to the baby section and they got the gallons of the water that you use for a baby's vaporizer and shit. Let's read the details. A Texas woman died from an infection caused by a brain-eating amoeba after using tap water and a nasal irrigation device according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. The woman died of primary amoebic menagenocephalitis. Oh boy, that's probably close to what I had. Shit, I should be

dead. I'm really lucky when I think about the fact that I had this encephalitis and don't know how I got it. How am I not dead? And then what I often think about is that like there was a long stretch where I was out and then I woke up and my mom was in the hospital. Like I could have died in theory and like it's just weird because like that quickly you're dead and you don't know you're dead. But then again I wasn't dead. So how would I know that I was dead? Because I wasn't, but I could have been.

Or PAM, a rare but often fatal brain infection caused by the nasolary-flawry organism, a case report published by the agency last week said. The previously healthy 71-year-old developed severe symptoms including fever, headache, and altered mental status within four days after using the nasal irrigation device, the case report said. Despite medical treatment for a suspected PAM infection, four days after using the nasal irrigation device, the case report said. Despite medical treatment for a suspected PAM infection, eight days after the symptoms began, she developed seizures and died. Let's see. The tap water she

used for the sinus rinse came from an RV's water system at a campground in Texas. See, that's the thing. You can't use tap water and particularly you can't use tap water at a fucking campsite to use a nivage. Like I feel bad for you. Like I don't think you deserve to die in this instance. This isn't like Darwinism or anything like that, right? It's not like you're taking a selfie on a mountain and fall off the mountain and you go, that kind of makes sense. That's not what this is. Like I feel bad for this woman. But you have to know that if you're using the Navage or the Neti Pot, you cannot use tap water ever.

And you certainly cannot use tap water at a campsite. At an RV water system, the CD recommends the use of distilled, sterile, or boiled and cooled tap water for nasal irrigation Pam is also typically associated with recreational water activities as the amoeba thrives in warm freshwater lakes rivers and hot springs Infections can occur if water containing the amoeba goes up the nose to the brain now My ass ain't going into some fucking lake now lakes and rivers. You're fucking out. I am not doing that shit. That is some fucked up shit. So no warm freshwater lakes or rivers or hot springs for this dude. Like if you tell me Josh you can spend the rest of your life not going to lakes, I'd be totally fine with that. I have no need to be in a lake, especially if I can get brain-eating amoebas.

To reduce your risk the CDC suggests holding your nose or wearing a nose clip if you are jumping or diving into fresh water or keeping your head above water in hot springs. In rare cases people have also become infected from pools and splash pads that do not have enough clor- now I don't want to go to a fucking pool. You cannot however get an ulcerativeuraria infection from swallowing contaminated water or from someone else who is infected. So like if you bang someone that's got this, they can't pass it on to you. That is a frightening scenario. That's just one of my all-time fears is getting some sort of brain eating amoeba.

You know, like because you don't know. Now in that case, I would have known to not use tap water for a fucking navaaj. But then on the other hand, you take a fucking shower. You want to tell me that water doesn't end up up your nose on occasion in the shower or something like that, right? But then again, it doesn't have like a direct shot to your brain like when you're doing the navaaj. It didn't say what this was. I don't know if she used the neti pot or the navaaj. The neti Pot's kind of a pain in the ass because it's a pot. You

pour it over and you tilt your head over and the shit comes out the other nostril. Dude, when I tell you that the Navaj, the Navaj is just a special contraption and look, I don't fuck with it anymore because I'm afraid of brain-eating amoebas. Like, look, I understand that like the odds of me getting this brain-eating amoeba are not very good, especially if I use the distilled water that you... Again, I go to the baby section in Walmart, 79 cents, whatever it is, boom, a jug of distilled water, you're fine. But like, holy shit, like you talk about fears and like some might say that's an irrational fear. How many people get that shit? I don't know, but I don't want to be one of them. And I can tell you that I've had encephalitis and like I had the same kind of like I would have

like all sorts of weird shit happen. The most frightening experience of my life. I didn't have anxiety or anything before that. That shit was a murderer to my brain. Like I mean, so I mean, I've already experienced that and I don't want to go out with a brain eating disease. But that's why you gotta use distilled water, man. This isn't difficult. Use the distilled water. I get that you're at a campsite, but why would you use tap water from a campsite? That just feels, or an RV park, that just feels like fucking nasty water.

Bless her heart, now she's dead. That's no good. So don't go to lakes. Don't use nasal irrigation systems unless the water is sterile, boiled, distilled, whatever. And maybe you'll survive. Don't go camping. That's another lesson in all of this. Don't get in an RV and don't go camping. You ever hear good stories about camping? No. You don't hear about camping. Someone got eaten by a bear. Someone gets a brain eating disease and dies. You don't want to go camping.

This is just a word of advice from Uncle Josh here as we sit here on this Tuesday. Don't go camping. Camping does not end well. And you don't belong out there anyway. You know, you hear stories like person was attacked by bear. Yeah, cause you're in the bear's fucking house. If you're in someone else's house by bear. Yeah, because you're in the bears fucking house. If you're in someone else's house like in Texas and you get shot, no one's surprised

or feels bad about it. So then why the fuck would you feel bad if you know a bear eats a person? You're in his house. Fuck off. It's his house. Anyway, more to come.
