- 1:25Speaker 3: You have a meeting today. Uh, no, have magical dining tonight.
- 1:29Speaker 4: Hey, date night at the bread shop.
- 1:32Speaker 2: I was talking to, uh, Scott Maxwell yesterday before his,
- 1:35Speaker 2: you know, just kind of checking on what he's going
- 1:37Speaker 2: to talk about because sometimes he'll write a column and
- 1:40Speaker 2: won't want to talk about it because it doesn't mean
- 1:42Speaker 2: it's not uplifting or anything like that. Yesterday's was pretty topical.
- 1:44Speaker 2: So we, we used it, but, um, Trying to set
- 1:47Speaker 2: up Magical Dining for him. And, man, I got to
- 1:49Speaker 2: tell you, dude, we're crushing this year's Magical Dining. Where
- 1:52Speaker 2: are you guys going?
- 1:53Speaker 3: On I-Drive. It's a restaurant I've never been to called
- 1:56Speaker 3: The I.
- 1:57Speaker 6: Oh, really?
- 1:58Speaker 3: The I on I-Drive. Oh, very cool. But the restaurant.
- 2:01Speaker 3: It's The I Restaurant. Oh, all right. Is that for the...
- 2:03Speaker 3: Not The I... Ferris wheel thingy? Ferris wheel. Okay.
- 2:07Speaker 2: That's not very romantic, though.
- 2:10Speaker 3: All right.
- 2:10Speaker 4: That is romantic.
- 2:11Speaker 3: I can't rule that out. Maybe it is a Ferris wheel.
- 2:14Speaker 7: If you're not terrified of heights, because if anyone in
- 2:16Speaker 7: your party is, they're going to end up clinging like
- 2:18Speaker 7: a cat to the center.
- 2:20Speaker 2: But you have to share that gondola with other people, right?
- 2:23Speaker 5: Oh, yeah.
- 2:23Speaker 3: That's not romantic.
- 2:24Speaker 2: How are you going to bang it out with everybody?
- 2:25Speaker 3: Oh, I'm sorry.
- 2:26Speaker 2: Dump that.
- 2:27Speaker 7: They'll be able to see from the ground, dude, it's
- 2:31Speaker 7: a glass capsule.
- 2:32Speaker 3: Yeah, but just imagine, like, if you were eating in that,
- 2:35Speaker 3: it's like, I need a new fork, and you've got
- 2:39Speaker 3: to wait until you go all the way around until
- 2:41Speaker 3: your server comes back.
- 2:42Speaker 2: One thing I found out about restaurants that have, like,
- 2:44Speaker 2: a gimmick is usually the gimmick is better than the food.
- 2:48Speaker 2: I went to the Needle in Seattle.
- 2:51Speaker 3: Possibly.
- 2:52Speaker 2: Yeah, the Sky Needle, whatever it is. There's a restaurant
- 2:54Speaker 2: up there. I think that's where it was. There's also
- 2:55Speaker 2: one in Canada where you can go up there and
- 2:58Speaker 2: you go to the top and then you do the
- 2:59Speaker 2: restaurant and it rotates, right?
- 3:01Speaker 3: Oh, wow.
- 3:01Speaker 2: So you get that view and stuff. And I was like,
- 3:03Speaker 2: I would much rather have a dinner I could consume
- 3:07Speaker 2: on a restaurant that stays still because it rotates and
- 3:12Speaker 2: that's cool, but it doesn't rotate where there's good food
- 3:14Speaker 2: because it was not good. Oh, but it was expensive.
- 3:17Speaker 3: All right. Of course.
- 3:18Speaker 8: See, I still don't mind an animatronic gorilla over my shoulder.
- 3:21Speaker 3: But you know what you're getting going in.
- 3:23Speaker 2: I mean, if you're charging me, you know, if my
- 3:26Speaker 2: meal is going to be with a couple of drinks, 120,
- 3:28Speaker 2: 30 bucks, and there's a gimmick, I need the meal
- 3:31Speaker 2: and the gimmick to kind of hold up together. Like
- 3:33Speaker 2: if I go to King Henry's feast or any of
- 3:35Speaker 2: the shows around town that have dinner attached to them,
- 3:38Speaker 2: I'm not expecting like to be blown away by the
- 3:40Speaker 2: culinary whims of the chef as I'm watching jousting. Yeah,
- 3:44Speaker 2: you're lowering your culinary expectations when you're getting a show. Yeah,
- 3:48Speaker 2: you're evening it out. I mean, rarely do you get both.
- 3:51Speaker 2: There's a balance, right?
- 3:52Speaker 8: There's a balance because I don't... When you go out
- 3:55Speaker 8: to one of those things where you see all the
- 3:57Speaker 8: horses and then the.
- 3:58Speaker 3: What is it called when they stab each other on
- 4:00Speaker 3: the horse?
- 4:00Speaker 4: Yeah, jousting.
- 4:01Speaker 3: Jousting, thank you. Whenever they're jousting.
- 4:04Speaker 8: But when you have a small theme to it.
- 4:08Speaker 3: With a small story, like on the front page of
- 4:11Speaker 3: a menu.
- 4:12Speaker 2: Sure, yeah.
- 4:12Speaker 3: And it goes like, our story. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 4:14Speaker 5: Dr.
- 4:14Speaker 8: Baccarat was here. creating these potions for a long time.
- 4:19Speaker 2: Like sleuths was actually a pretty good time i and
- 4:21Speaker 2: that food wasn't terrible i've never done any of that
- 4:24Speaker 2: oh my god i've never done the medieval times no
- 4:28Speaker 2: way i've always.
- 4:29Speaker 9: Wanted to dude buddy listen that's it's still open i
- 4:32Speaker 9: will tell you in my opinion in my humble opinion
- 4:35Speaker 9: that is like a rite of passage in orlando i
- 4:38Speaker 9: think maybe even more so than the parks a little.
- 4:40Speaker 3: Bit the challenge for me is that's something you would
- 4:42Speaker 3: do with friends.
- 4:45Speaker 7: Now, what I've seen a lot on reels is fathers
- 4:48Speaker 7: finding out that their daughters have a thing for men
- 4:51Speaker 7: who ride horseback and like to joust.
- 4:52Speaker 5: Really?
- 4:55Speaker 7: I'm just saying there's a lot of reels with young
- 4:57Speaker 7: women going, oh, dad, this is so, oh, my God.
- 5:00Speaker 8: Me and the guys went to Medieval Times for Joel's birthday.
- 5:04Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 5:04Speaker 3: Really?
- 5:06Speaker 8: That's a good time. He celebrated his 43rd there. Just
- 5:09Speaker 8: you and the bros?
- 5:09Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 5:10Speaker 3: And his family.
- 5:11Speaker 2: Oh, and the family, right? You brought your wife and stuff, whatever, right?
- 5:15Speaker 5: No.
- 5:15Speaker 3: Oh, no way, really? No, no.
- 5:16Speaker 8: Did not bring the wife. It was just him, me.
- 5:20Speaker 8: Another friend, another friend, rest of Joel's family.
- 5:22Speaker 2: What's open anymore? I think the Pirates one is still going, right?
- 5:26Speaker 3: That one, I don't. Is it? Okay.
- 5:28Speaker 2: I got homies up in that show. I think Pirates
- 5:31Speaker 2: is still going. And I know that King, not King
- 5:33Speaker 2: Henry's Feast, but the one we just mentioned.
- 5:34Speaker 4: Medieval Times.
- 5:35Speaker 2: That one's still going, but Arabian Nights is done, right?
- 5:37Speaker 4: That's done.
- 5:37Speaker 7: Now, somebody did text us and say they had dinner
- 5:40Speaker 7: at the Space Needle in the 90s.
- 5:41Speaker 4: Don't feel bad, Jimmy. They got food poisoning.
- 5:44Speaker 3: Oh, my God.
- 5:45Speaker 4: So they got they got a restaurant that spends a
- 5:47Speaker 4: big bill.
- 5:48Speaker 3: And I.
- 5:50Speaker 2: Have two things for spending there.
- 5:52Speaker 3: Yeah. All right.
- 5:55Speaker 7: Now, somebody texted about Dolly's Dixie Stampede. I thought that
- 5:58Speaker 7: had left years ago.
- 6:00Speaker 2: Yeah, it's been out of business for a while, actually.
- 6:02Speaker 2: And then, you know, do you know, do you remember
- 6:04Speaker 2: what it became after Dixie Stampede?
- 6:07Speaker 3: It had a gimmick.
- 6:09Speaker 2: Jack, do you remember it?
- 6:09Speaker 3: I do not. Monster trucks. It wasn't monster. Oh, the
- 6:13Speaker 3: big truck. Yeah. It was a car. Race or something.
- 6:16Speaker 3: Race Rock?
- 6:17Speaker 2: I don't think it was Race Rock. Race Rock was
- 6:19Speaker 2: over where... That was a night drive thing. Yeah, it
- 6:22Speaker 2: was a night drive thing. I think that is now Buster...
- 6:25Speaker 2: Dave and Buster's is what I think that is now.
- 6:27Speaker 2: Dixie Stampede was this, by the way, for people who
- 6:29Speaker 2: do not remember Dixie Stampede, Dolly Parton had basically what
- 6:33Speaker 2: was a rodeo.
- 6:34Speaker 8: Yeah.
- 6:34Speaker 2: It was a rodeo show, but there was also other
- 6:37Speaker 2: kind of exotic animals there. Weren't there like camels and
- 6:39Speaker 2: stuff as well?
- 6:40Speaker 4: I believe so.
- 6:40Speaker 10: Emus.
- 6:41Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 6:42Speaker 2: So they would do like a rodeo, and you would
- 6:44Speaker 2: sit there and eat while you did the rodeo. It
- 6:46Speaker 2: did not work, and I don't even remember why. I
- 6:48Speaker 2: just don't know if there was a lot of interest
- 6:52Speaker 2: in it. And a lot of saturation with other places.
- 6:54Speaker 3: Sure, yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 6:55Speaker 2: But the thing I remember it turning into is at
- 6:58Speaker 2: one point, I believe, it was considered the world's biggest
- 7:03Speaker 2: pizza restaurant.
- 7:05Speaker 3: Oh. I think that's what happened to it.
- 7:06Speaker 2: I think it turned into what they tried to claim
- 7:08Speaker 2: was the world's largest pizza restaurant.
- 7:13Speaker 3: Because it was just gigantic, right?
- 7:16Speaker 7: Yeah, it was huge.
- 7:16Speaker 3: It was a freaking rodeo. But I don't know.
- 7:20Speaker 2: I mean, I don't really know.
- 7:21Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 7:22Speaker 8: There's a themed restaurant over at Epic Universe that I
- 7:26Speaker 8: am kind of in love with, that it's like Atlantis
- 7:29Speaker 8: kind of thing. It was underneath the sea. The captain
- 7:32Speaker 8: of the ship, the captain of the restaurant kind of
- 7:34Speaker 8: thing is not.
- 7:35Speaker 2: Here, but we're looking for him. Yeah, yeah. Which one
- 7:39Speaker 2: was that? I'm trying to remember what it's called. There
- 7:42Speaker 2: was a really fancy one for a while over in
- 7:44Speaker 2: that area that was in an aquarium. And I don't
- 7:47Speaker 2: know if it's there anymore or if they changed the theme,
- 7:49Speaker 2: but the whole idea was, is you dined in a
- 7:52Speaker 2: restaurant that basically had an aquarium around it. And I
- 7:55Speaker 2: can't remember what the name was. I went with my ex-wife.
- 7:59Speaker 4: Where was this?
- 7:59Speaker 2: The Atlantic is the restaurant that I'm referring to. Yeah,
- 8:02Speaker 2: this one was not the Atlantic, I don't believe. It
- 8:05Speaker 2: was Seven Seas or Seven Leagues or something.
- 8:08Speaker 3: At Disney, right?
- 8:09Speaker 2: Yeah, it was something out there at Disney, I remember.
- 8:11Speaker 7: Yeah, because when I used to work there, I had
- 8:13Speaker 7: set up for some British radio host to broadcast live
- 8:17Speaker 7: while they scuba dove.
- 8:18Speaker 5: Oh, really?
- 8:19Speaker 7: Yeah.
- 8:20Speaker 3: So they'd be in the tank hanging out.
- 8:21Speaker 2: Yeah, it was fun.
- 8:22Speaker 3: You never hear scuba dove. Scuba dive.
- 8:24Speaker 4: I don't know.
- 8:25Speaker 7: What is the proper word for past tense?
- 8:27Speaker 8: That's why I kind of called it out. I was like,
- 8:28Speaker 8: I'm just appreciating the fact that I heard scuba dove.
- 8:31Speaker 4: Jack is the only scuba diver that we have.
- 8:33Speaker 3: That I think is right. Yeah, yeah.
- 8:36Speaker 2: Scuba diving we know is right scuba diver we know
- 8:39Speaker 2: is right.
- 8:39Speaker 7: Someone texted us earlier at 77031 what aggravates me is
- 8:43Speaker 7: that to keep with the times right at medieval times
- 8:46Speaker 7: you don't get any silverware so you have to eat
- 8:48Speaker 7: with your hands but if you want a beer then
- 8:50Speaker 7: bring out a tablet and charge your card right there I.
- 8:55Speaker 2: Thought the whole thing with your entry fee is that
- 8:56Speaker 2: you get free beer Because, dude, when we used to
- 8:59Speaker 2: go to King Henry's Feast, like one of the thing was.
- 9:01Speaker 7: Okay, you're talking either late 80s or early 90s, dude.
- 9:04Speaker 7: I don't think anything's given away for free anymore.
- 9:06Speaker 2: You have never been hammered on Milwaukee's Best more. I mean,
- 9:10Speaker 2: because that's what they're bringing you out. I mean, lukewarm
- 9:12Speaker 2: Milwaukee's Best.
- 9:13Speaker 3: Oh, buddy, welcome to the early nights of quarter beer
- 9:15Speaker 3: night at Calico Jack's. Like five kegs is $ 10? Yeah.
- 9:20Speaker 3: We are big medieval time people. Really?
- 9:23Speaker 8: Over in good sauce land, we try to go once
- 9:25Speaker 8: a year. I find a lot of millennials. That's like
- 9:27Speaker 8: a big thing.
- 9:28Speaker 2: Like the retro thing?
- 9:30Speaker 3: It's just, yeah.
- 9:31Speaker 7: There's a young couple that works with Chris, and that
- 9:33Speaker 7: was one of their first dates was medieval times. They
- 9:36Speaker 7: had the photo prominently displayed in their house.
- 9:39Speaker 3: I love it. I have a photo.
- 9:41Speaker 8: Olivia is basically, I don't know, 15 months pregnant at
- 9:45Speaker 8: the time. I thought you were going to say 15
- 9:47Speaker 8: years old.
- 9:48Speaker 3: No, she was.
- 9:49Speaker 8: She did go to medieval times because I have that
- 9:52Speaker 8: pregnant photo.
- 9:52Speaker 3: It's one of the greatest photos. You brought up the photo.
- 9:54Speaker 3: It's me, her.
- 9:56Speaker 8: I'm holding the baby through the, you know, the belly
- 9:59Speaker 8: through the. belly and it's awkward yeah because we're both
- 10:02Speaker 8: wearing paper crowns Taking it very seriously. You guys remember
- 10:07Speaker 8: there was one out there called Capone's?
- 10:10Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 10:10Speaker 2: Which was supposed to be like an Italian place. Like
- 10:13Speaker 2: a gangster Italian kind of place or whatever. Shout out
- 10:15Speaker 2: to Bunny, dude. That was the Bunny the character. Oh,
- 10:18Speaker 2: I know about these dinner theaters, man.
- 10:19Speaker 3: Really? Yeah.
- 10:20Speaker 8: Dude, the Blue Pirate owes me 10 bucks. I'm telling you, dude.
- 10:25Speaker 8: These are my guys.
- 10:27Speaker 2: Not that you're holding on to that. Somebody said it
- 10:29Speaker 2: was called the Coral Reef Restaurant. I don't remember that
- 10:31Speaker 2: being the name.
- 10:32Speaker 4: I don't either.
- 10:33Speaker 2: I remember it being something a little bit more like
- 10:35Speaker 2: it had the word league or something in there like that.
- 10:37Speaker 2: It's a very sea. Not that Coral Reef isn't, but
- 10:40Speaker 2: I don't remember it being that.
- 10:41Speaker 3: Living Seas. That's it.
- 10:43Speaker 2: The Living Seas.
- 10:44Speaker 3: There we go.
- 10:44Speaker 2: That's exactly what it was.
- 10:46Speaker 8: I am a fan of a good gimmick in a restaurant,
- 10:48Speaker 8: but there is a balance to it.
- 10:50Speaker 2: What is the best one, though? If you're going to
- 10:52Speaker 2: get a gimmick in a restaurant and you're also going
- 10:55Speaker 2: to get great food, what's that combo?
- 10:57Speaker 4: Medieval Times?
- 10:57Speaker 7: No, no.
- 10:58Speaker 3: I think that place that was at.
- 11:01Speaker 2: Was it universal or at epcot for a while with
- 11:03Speaker 2: the dinosaurs what was that.
- 11:04Speaker 3: One t-rex cafe yeah the dinosaur cafe.
- 11:07Speaker 2: Or something wasn't it like that where the dinosaurs and
- 11:09Speaker 2: it had and it was like the whole thing was
- 11:11Speaker 2: like you're living in a paddock or some sort or
- 11:14Speaker 2: you remember.
- 11:14Speaker 3: That it's one thing to have a motif it's the
- 11:17Speaker 3: other to be like you're immersed into the environment yeah
- 11:20Speaker 3: yeah yeah which i think is what you got with
- 11:22Speaker 3: medieval time yeah that's immersion.
- 11:25Speaker 2: Hold on now, what? That's a show as well, dude.
- 11:28Speaker 3: It's a show, but it's immersion. Even as the audience,
- 11:31Speaker 3: you're playing the part. Oh, I got you.
- 11:33Speaker 7: And you have to eat with your hands, so you're
- 11:35Speaker 7: keeping with the times until they come to charge you
- 11:37Speaker 7: with that tablet for your beer.
- 11:39Speaker 8: Then you get that hot buzz off that third beer,
- 11:42Speaker 8: so you're kind of yelling.
- 11:43Speaker 2: All of a sudden, your volume goes up.
- 11:45Speaker 3: Let's go, Blue Night! Let's go!
- 11:47Speaker 2: They start getting real disrespectful to the other knights.
- 11:50Speaker 3: More wine! And their fans. Yeah, you start, you don't
- 11:53Speaker 3: know me!
- 11:54Speaker 11: Right.
- 11:54Speaker 2: You start contemplating if you can throw that mug across
- 11:57Speaker 2: the entire arena.
- 11:58Speaker 3: I'm sorry, king. Yeah. I've disgraced the land.
- 12:01Speaker 2: That's my favorite part of the entire thing, when the
- 12:02Speaker 2: king comes out at the very top of the thing.
- 12:04Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 12:05Speaker 2: It's like, what a job, dude. You just come out
- 12:07Speaker 2: there and sit on that throne.
- 12:08Speaker 3: All of a.
- 12:08Speaker 8: Sudden, a hawk lands on your shoulder. Texter says Capone's
- 12:13Speaker 8: is still around.
- 12:13Speaker 3: Is it really?
- 12:14Speaker 5: Yep.
- 12:17Speaker 3: All right.
- 12:18Speaker 2: There you go. Somebody said scuba dove is proper. I
- 12:22Speaker 2: don't understand that.
- 12:23Speaker 12: Hell yeah, man.
- 12:23Speaker 2: I've never heard scuba dove before. Well, we did it.
- 12:27Speaker 2: All right. 407-916-1041. Text us at 77031. We're going to
- 12:30Speaker 2: talk about Orlando Money Hunt. Have you guys seen this?
- 12:33Speaker 6: I have.
- 12:34Speaker 7: No.
- 12:34Speaker 3: Dude, my daughter is losing her blanking mind. I think
- 12:39Speaker 3: I have.
- 12:40Speaker 2: Over this Orlando Money Hunt. Now, I think it's a
- 12:42Speaker 2: TikTok slash Instagram thing. I found it on Instagram.
- 12:45Speaker 13: Yeah.
- 12:45Speaker 2: And it's basically where this guy has a black rubber
- 12:48Speaker 2: glove on, and then there's this goat.
- 12:51Speaker 3: No, I'm joking.
- 12:54Speaker 2: And he will video himself putting a wad of cash. Now,
- 12:59Speaker 2: I've got a question. He'll hide it somewhere and then
- 13:02Speaker 2: kind of scan the area to give you some clues
- 13:05Speaker 2: of where it is. But, I mean, here's the thing.
- 13:08Speaker 2: He does that old thing where it's like a wad
- 13:09Speaker 2: of money wrapped up with rubber bands, and there's 100
- 13:11Speaker 2: on the outside.
- 13:13Speaker 3: But you don't, it could be singles. It could just
- 13:15Speaker 3: be paper.
- 13:15Speaker 2: And I'm not saying that it's not still worth the hunt.
- 13:18Speaker 2: I mean, finding a hundred free dollars is still a
- 13:20Speaker 2: hundred free dollars, but I don't think for one second,
- 13:23Speaker 2: that's like 10 K and that's exactly what it looks like.
- 13:25Speaker 5: Right.
- 13:26Speaker 2: A lot of hundreds like that would be a lot
- 13:28Speaker 2: of dough.
- 13:28Speaker 3: I saw one of the videos where it was like
- 13:30Speaker 3: in the base of a lamp, like a outside lamp.
- 13:35Speaker 3: And I just checked the comments. It said money was found.
- 13:38Speaker 3: I'm like, okay, later.
- 13:39Speaker 7: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 13:39Speaker 2: And the one he puts it in a gator mouth
- 13:41Speaker 2: over by the science center.
- 13:43Speaker 14: Oh, really?
- 13:43Speaker 2: And then he backs off to the side to film it,
- 13:45Speaker 2: and a dude rolls up on an electric bike and
- 13:46Speaker 2: gets it, and it makes his entire– the dude almost
- 13:48Speaker 2: breaks down in tears that he finds that money and
- 13:51Speaker 2: starts kind of waving and thumbs up to the guy
- 13:54Speaker 2: because he sees him videotaping him. Rainforest Cafe, by the way.
- 13:57Speaker 15: Yeah, yeah.
- 13:57Speaker 2: Yeah, Rainforest Cafe.
- 13:58Speaker 3: That's my gorilla animatronic reference. Oh, yeah, the greatest.
- 14:01Speaker 2: That's my thing. Did you get to see a cougar
- 14:03Speaker 2: next to a cougar? All right.
- 14:07Speaker 5: 407-916-1041.
- 14:07Speaker 3: Again, you can always text the show at 77031.
- 14:09Speaker 2: Deb, got some news?
- 14:11Speaker 7: Yeah, say hello to Tropical Storm Dolly. The governor denies
- 14:14Speaker 7: wrongdoing in the Hope, Florida scandal.
- 14:17Speaker 4: Man, it's getting juicy.
- 14:20Speaker 2: How national news front page juicy is this? Because that's
- 14:23Speaker 2: where it was all morning.
- 14:24Speaker 7: Well, it's just juicy right here at home. Don't even
- 14:27Speaker 7: have to leave the neighborhood to get your extra tea today.
- 14:29Speaker 3: Juicy like 2005 pants.
- 14:32Speaker 7: And then what are the least hardworking states? We'll talk
- 14:35Speaker 7: about that and more coming up next during JCS News.
- 14:37Speaker 3: You got it. Let's take a little break. We'll come
- 14:38Speaker 3: back and get Dad's news and continue on with the
- 14:40Speaker 3: Jim Colbert Show.
- 14:56Speaker 2: Hey, Colbert crew.
- 14:57Speaker 16: You were just talking about medieval times and love that place.
- 15:02Speaker 4: We go a couple of times a year.
- 15:04Speaker 17: Really?
- 15:05Speaker 4: But it will always remind me of the cable guy.
- 15:08Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 15:09Speaker 5: Forever.
- 15:10Speaker 3: It will always be associated with that.
- 15:12Speaker 4: Movie, which I love that movie. So that's OK.
- 15:14Speaker 3: OK, bye. They shot that here, right? Jimmy, come on.
- 15:19Speaker 5: What?
- 15:19Speaker 18: King Henry's Feast?
- 15:21Speaker 1: Yeah, dude.
- 15:22Speaker 7: What's next?
- 15:22Speaker 3: You're going to go to Watermania and Splendid China? He
- 15:27Speaker 3: ain't wrong. I'm at the Mystery Funhouse tonight, dude. JCS crew.
- 15:32Speaker 19: Great topic about themed restaurants. I knew a guy that
- 15:36Speaker 19: worked at Medieval Times, and he came walking in to
- 15:39Speaker 19: the bar, and he had a neck brace on. He
- 15:42Speaker 19: went to go and look in the curtains to see
- 15:44Speaker 19: if the horses were coming out, At the exact same
- 15:46Speaker 19: time the horses were coming out.
- 15:48Speaker 3: Oh, no. Not good. Not fun.
- 15:50Speaker 2: All right, welcome back to the Jim Colbert Show. We're
- 15:54Speaker 2: already at 104.1. Thanks for tuning in. We appreciate that, guys.
- 15:57Speaker 2: Hope you're having a good Thursday. Probably going to be
- 15:59Speaker 2: a little rainy out there this afternoon. I don't know
- 16:01Speaker 2: about worse than yesterday. Yesterday was pretty gnarly.
- 16:05Speaker 3: We're used to it.
- 16:06Speaker 2: It's Florida in August.
- 16:09Speaker 3: I'm Jim. There's Deb. Hello.
- 16:10Speaker 5: Jack.
- 16:12Speaker 2: And Sauce.
- 16:12Speaker 3: Believe in yourself. And Deb has your news. Let's get it.
- 16:18Speaker 1: It's time for JCS News.
- 16:20Speaker 3: Wow, has this guy.
- 16:23Speaker 5: Got to put his name on everything?
- 16:24Speaker 3: It's in my contract, dude.
- 16:26Speaker 1: Here's the news on the Jim Colbert Show.
- 16:29Speaker 7: And JCS News is always brought to you by that
- 16:32Speaker 7: mortgage guy, Don.
- 16:33Speaker 4: Thank you, Don.
- 16:34Speaker 7: Doral-based Global Empowerment Mission, we've talked about them before because
- 16:38Speaker 7: they already have teams in Colombia and Venezuela, are en
- 16:41Speaker 7: route to Nepal after unprecedented flash flooding devastated regions along
- 16:46Speaker 7: the Tibet border. Teams are delivering emergency aid to survivors
- 16:49Speaker 7: as rescuers search for over 1,300 people missing in the disaster.
- 16:54Speaker 7: Officials put the death toll at over 330, while over
- 16:57Speaker 7: 1,000 again are reported missing, mostly foreign tourists, including dozens
- 17:02Speaker 7: of Americans. Back stateside, Tropical Storm Dolly has formed, but
- 17:06Speaker 7: it's not expected to impact the U.S.
- 17:08Speaker 3: Too soon.
- 17:09Speaker 4: Right now, it's way too early to say long-term effects.
- 17:12Speaker 20: The models are pretty consistent about the system weakening as
- 17:15Speaker 20: it moves over the western Atlantic.
- 17:16Speaker 7: Eric Blake at the National Hurricane Center in Miami says
- 17:19Speaker 7: Dolly developed over the central Atlantic today, packing maximum sustained
- 17:23Speaker 7: winds of 40 miles per hour. Dolly is heading into
- 17:26Speaker 7: hostile conditions. Don't you do that to Dolly. And will
- 17:29Speaker 7: break apart probably by tomorrow, keeping it far away from us.
- 17:32Speaker 7: It is expected to bring some gusty downpours over the
- 17:35Speaker 7: Leeward Islands and Puerto Rico by this weekend. And, of course,
- 17:39Speaker 7: a water crisis in Puerto Rico where just weeks ago
- 17:41Speaker 7: they had to have water trucks installed. as reservoirs and
- 17:44Speaker 7: cisterns have dried up across the island. So hopefully these
- 17:47Speaker 7: rain showers will help.
- 17:48Speaker 4: And, you know, again... What are the chances? I know
- 17:51Speaker 4: this is predetermined, right?
- 17:53Speaker 3: It is. Like years ago, the naming of a storm? No,
- 17:56Speaker 3: they picked it last week.
- 17:57Speaker 4: They do it every year.
- 17:58Speaker 7: But if you remember, we had talked about when the
- 18:00Speaker 7: hurricane season began June 1st, what some of the names
- 18:03Speaker 7: were going to be. And we had talked about Dolly.
- 18:06Speaker 7: You know, you can't name a storm Dolly. But yeah,
- 18:09Speaker 7: this name had been picked last year. They say it's
- 18:12Speaker 7: literally just by coincidence that the name of the storm
- 18:16Speaker 7: happened just two days after Dolly Parton died.
- 18:18Speaker 3: Wow. All right.
- 18:20Speaker 7: Check your freezer and your fridge because nearly 30,000 pounds
- 18:24Speaker 7: of imported Argentine beef are being recalled after bypassing federal
- 18:29Speaker 7: safety inspections. Aventura-based Corte Argentino distributed the frozen cuts statewide
- 18:34Speaker 7: and officials warn consumers.
- 18:36Speaker 4: to dump the.
- 18:38Speaker 7: Meat immediately damn really they're not even saying take it
- 18:42Speaker 7: back for a refund or they're saying dump the meat
- 18:46Speaker 7: immediately do not eat it do not feed it to
- 18:48Speaker 7: your animals this is this is part of the problem
- 18:51Speaker 7: argentinian beef right they said that they have a lot
- 18:54Speaker 7: of agricultural pests they may not go through the same
- 18:57Speaker 7: inspections that beef has now ended up and American grocery stores.
- 19:01Speaker 7: So the steaks feature use-by or freeze-by dates for mid-September.
- 19:06Speaker 3: They also don't lose the World Cup finals very well.
- 19:09Speaker 4: No, they don't.
- 19:11Speaker 3: They're very tough and angry. So when the president okayed
- 19:15Speaker 3: more foreign beef to be brought into our market is...
- 19:19Speaker 3: This is the beef.
- 19:21Speaker 7: This is the beef that not only did the EU
- 19:24Speaker 7: say they weren't going to accept China beef, Also said
- 19:28Speaker 7: they were not going to accept this beef.
- 19:29Speaker 2: I also read yesterday that Florida was one of the
- 19:31Speaker 2: first states that that was distributed to. Like 30,000 pounds
- 19:33Speaker 2: of it or something came here first.
- 19:35Speaker 4: So it's ground beef. They said it was trimmings, right?
- 19:38Speaker 7: So after all the nice cuts have been made, then
- 19:40Speaker 7: this is what's left over and that this would be
- 19:42Speaker 7: folded into ground beef.
- 19:44Speaker 4: So you may want to avoid the ground beef for
- 19:46Speaker 4: the next few months.
- 19:47Speaker 2: Yeah, we may talk about that country of origin labeling.
- 19:50Speaker 2: a little bit later in the program as well.
- 19:51Speaker 4: Yeah, absolutely.
- 19:52Speaker 7: And this is a story we've been talking about because
- 19:53Speaker 7: cattle producers from Montana, Florida, Minnesota have been saying you're
- 19:58Speaker 7: going to decimate American cattle producers by doing this.
- 20:01Speaker 2: It is the number one thing talked about on social
- 20:03Speaker 2: media today is this beef scenario.
- 20:05Speaker 7: Yeah, because it's so dangerous. Again, they say dump the
- 20:07Speaker 7: meat immediately. There are no other options. That's not a
- 20:10Speaker 7: good sign. Hospital wait times could be going up, staffing
- 20:14Speaker 7: going down, and community care programs slashed if Florida voters
- 20:18Speaker 7: approve that property tax amendment on November's ballot. The Florida
- 20:21Speaker 7: Policy Institute analysis finds public hospitals could lose about $ 325
- 20:27Speaker 7: million in property tax revenue over the next three years.
- 20:31Speaker 7: In South Florida, Broward Health's 25 facilities alone losing more
- 20:36Speaker 7: than $ 100 million. Jackson Health System in Miami-Dade County would
- 20:40Speaker 7: be out $ 64 million. Up in the Panhandle, Baker County
- 20:44Speaker 7: Hospital Authority, Northlake County Hospital District, and the West Volusia
- 20:48Speaker 7: Hospital Authority, you know, pretty much all of us, would
- 20:51Speaker 7: each lose more than half of their total revenues.
- 20:55Speaker 2: I saw Seminole County printed today on social that they
- 20:57Speaker 2: would lose like $ 300 million or something in property tax value.
- 21:00Speaker 2: And I looked at my hometown to see what percentage
- 21:03Speaker 2: of their city budget is made up from property taxes
- 21:05Speaker 2: it's 40 to 50 percent.
- 21:07Speaker 7: Yeah a lot of the like palatka you're looking at
- 21:10Speaker 7: debarry i mean some of those cities may not be
- 21:12Speaker 7: able because they're their bedroom communities.
- 21:14Speaker 2: We have some fat manufacturing out there but it's it's
- 21:17Speaker 2: basically one company you know it's georgia pacific which is
- 21:19Speaker 2: a coke brothers company but you know it is a
- 21:21Speaker 2: 40 to 50 percent of their entire city budget is
- 21:24Speaker 2: made up of property.
- 21:25Speaker 7: Tax Well, some state officials are accused of running a
- 21:28Speaker 7: sophisticated scheme to divert money from a Medicaid settlement. A
- 21:31Speaker 7: state grand jury ruled in January the DeSantis administration misappropriated
- 21:36Speaker 7: $ 10 million in taxpayer funds to the Hope Florida Foundation.
- 21:40Speaker 7: The money was from a settlement with a Medicaid vendor
- 21:42Speaker 7: called the Centene Corporation for overbilling the state for prescription drugs.
- 21:47Speaker 7: Governor Ron DeSantis says his administration, well, they did nothing wrong.
- 21:52Speaker 3: There was no diversion of any Medicaid funds. That was
- 21:56Speaker 3: a private settlement.
- 21:57Speaker 7: The money was supposed to give poor kids health insurance,
- 22:00Speaker 7: but it was allegedly sent to two political action committees,
- 22:03Speaker 7: or PACs, and the Republican Party of Florida. From there,
- 22:06Speaker 7: the money was allegedly used to help defeat a referendum
- 22:09Speaker 7: to legalize marijuana as well as an abortion amendment. The
- 22:13Speaker 7: grand jury, though, finds there's not enough evidence to charge
- 22:16Speaker 7: anyone criminally. Does not mean lawmakers are not losing their mind.
- 22:20Speaker 7: During a press conference today in the villages, Florida Attorney
- 22:23Speaker 7: General James Uthmeyer, who happened to be the governor's chief
- 22:26Speaker 7: of staff when the settlement was made, before being gifted
- 22:28Speaker 7: the job, today actually went after a News 6 reporter, quote,
- 22:33Speaker 7: are you trying to solicit a crime, end quote, just
- 22:36Speaker 7: by simply asking a question about this grand jury report.
- 22:39Speaker 7: The attorney general tried to act like the reporter asking
- 22:42Speaker 7: a question about a grand jury report that's already been
- 22:45Speaker 7: released and has been covered by many news organizations.
- 22:49Speaker 4: With somehow them trying to solicit a crime. Shame on you, Uthmeyer.
- 22:53Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't know if it's really going to affect
- 22:54Speaker 2: it that much, but I know one person could be
- 22:56Speaker 2: really affected by this, and of course it's Ashley Moody.
- 22:59Speaker 2: I mean, she's running for office, and she's going to
- 23:01Speaker 2: have to deal with this in November, people bringing this up.
- 23:03Speaker 2: And every post, by the way, that I've seen about
- 23:05Speaker 2: this on Facebook or on social media, when you read
- 23:08Speaker 2: the comments, people are uncool.
- 23:10Speaker 3: Well, good.
- 23:10Speaker 2: They should be.
- 23:11Speaker 3: They were reminding them every time.
- 23:12Speaker 2: I mean, Ashley Moody had the balls to put up
- 23:14Speaker 2: something today about can you believe this or whatever, and
- 23:17Speaker 2: it did not go well for her in the comments.
- 23:19Speaker 2: People are just kind of done with all this stuff.
- 23:21Speaker 3: Exactly.
- 23:22Speaker 2: Because you can say misappropriation. You can say whatever you want,
- 23:25Speaker 2: but that money was not supposed to go to two
- 23:27Speaker 2: PACs to try to defeat legislation that was moving through
- 23:30Speaker 2: the system. That was not supposed to work.
- 23:32Speaker 7: And that's the dark money that people want out of politics.
- 23:35Speaker 7: All right, the name of the suspended Palm Beach County
- 23:38Speaker 7: Clerk of Court and Comptroller will be on the November ballot.
- 23:41Speaker 7: Mike Caruso is still in the Orange County Jail on
- 23:44Speaker 7: charges of child sex abuse, but the Palm Beach County
- 23:47Speaker 7: Supervisor of Elections confirms that the results of last week's
- 23:50Speaker 7: primary have now been certified, and she never received a
- 23:53Speaker 7: notice of withdrawal. Local Republicans can choose a replacement candidate
- 23:57Speaker 7: to go against the Democrat on the ballot if Caruso
- 24:00Speaker 7: does eventually drop out of the race. What do you
- 24:04Speaker 7: think he's going to let his name remain on the ballot?
- 24:07Speaker 7: Do you think he has enough hubris to think?
- 24:09Speaker 2: No, no, it's gone.
- 24:10Speaker 3: It has to be.
- 24:11Speaker 7: Well, but that person's name cannot be on the ballot
- 24:13Speaker 7: at this point. And any vote for Caruso would go
- 24:16Speaker 7: to the GOP chosen candidate. Meanwhile, a spokesperson for Caruso
- 24:20Speaker 7: says he has hired Harvey Weinstein's former attorney. Donna Rotano
- 24:25Speaker 7: to help him fight the charges.
- 24:27Speaker 3: All right.
- 24:30Speaker 7: A new report offers some details on why a police
- 24:33Speaker 7: chief in Lake County lost his job. Documents released yesterday
- 24:37Speaker 7: show former Groveland police chief Sean Ramsey was fired this
- 24:40Speaker 7: week for not appropriately punishing an employee. Sergeant Alexander Jarrell
- 24:46Speaker 7: was found to be speeding with his emergency lights on,
- 24:49Speaker 7: even though he was not responding to an emergency officer.
- 24:52Speaker 7: Gerald was given a three-day suspension and six months probation,
- 24:55Speaker 7: but city officials thought that was simply too lenient. They
- 24:59Speaker 7: also accused Ramsey of misleading them when he told them
- 25:01Speaker 7: that that was Gerald's first offense.
- 25:03Speaker 3: It was not.
- 25:04Speaker 4: According to investigators, it was actually his third.
- 25:07Speaker 2: Going over 100 miles an hour.
- 25:08Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 25:08Speaker 2: With his lights on. That's the third time he did it.
- 25:11Speaker 7: So Ramsey's lawyer says the firing was retaliation for whistleblower complaints.
- 25:16Speaker 8: This is why I couldn't be a police officer. Amongst
- 25:19Speaker 8: other reasons. But that's one of them. That's one of them.
- 25:23Speaker 8: I think I would have a little bit too much
- 25:25Speaker 8: fun with those lights.
- 25:27Speaker 3: At least you're honest about it. I'm self-aware, man. I'm
- 25:29Speaker 3: not going to the academy. And that speaker.
- 25:32Speaker 2: That speaker, man. To be able to just get on your...
- 25:33Speaker 2: And just talk to people out on the sidewalk.
- 25:35Speaker 3: How much fun would that be? Are you out of
- 25:36Speaker 3: your mind? That'd be the greatest. I used to have
- 25:38Speaker 3: that in my first car. Did you really? I had, yeah,
- 25:41Speaker 3: I had a CB, which was, I had a PA
- 25:43Speaker 3: horn under the hood. Oh, of course you did. So
- 25:45Speaker 3: on my CB, all I, you know, you could talk
- 25:47Speaker 3: and blast it to whoever you want. Did you have
- 25:49Speaker 3: a train horn in your car as well? I did
- 25:51Speaker 3: not have the train horn. I always wanted that.
- 25:53Speaker 2: I wanted the Dukes of Hazzard horn. That's my grandfather.
- 25:55Speaker 2: My grandfather used to ride up behind people in his
- 25:57Speaker 2: old van.
- 25:58Speaker 12: Oh, no.
- 25:58Speaker 2: And he had an air horn. I mean, like, right
- 26:02Speaker 2: behind cyclers. The great evil laugh. I've never seen, that's
- 26:05Speaker 2: the happiest that old man ever was.
- 26:08Speaker 3: I used to play the beginning of Billy Joel's Goodnight
- 26:10Speaker 3: Saigon has helicopters coming in. Oh, no. Just put that
- 26:13Speaker 3: on the PA and watch people looking around for all
- 26:16Speaker 3: these helicopters that are not there.
- 26:18Speaker 8: You probably triggered people's PTSD. Jim, before you even finish
- 26:22Speaker 8: that sentence, yes, it is illegal. there's no way it
- 26:27Speaker 8: can't be illegal i didn't even say it i just
- 26:29Speaker 8: said it's got to be and you said and then
- 26:31Speaker 8: also just to confirm this police officer was just basically
- 26:35Speaker 8: gone in 16 16 second team everywhere like he was
- 26:39Speaker 8: just speeding oh yeah i.
- 26:41Speaker 2: Mean he was one time it was 111 miles an
- 26:42Speaker 2: hour i think it was 104 and then.
- 26:44Speaker 7: Whatever yeah i mean he basically a super speeder yeah
- 26:47Speaker 7: wearing a uniform All right, local schools continue to deal
- 26:51Speaker 7: with drops in student enrollment.
- 26:53Speaker 4: This is heartbreaking.
- 26:54Speaker 7: The Orlando Sentinel reported yesterday that public schools in Central Florida, Jimmy,
- 26:58Speaker 7: I know you know the number, but Jack and Ross,
- 27:01Speaker 7: they reported that Central Florida schools have this many fewer
- 27:04Speaker 7: students this year than last year.
- 27:06Speaker 4: What would you say the number is?
- 27:07Speaker 3: I would say 40,000.
- 27:11Speaker 8: I thought this was going to be a percentage thing,
- 27:14Speaker 8: so I'll take 10,000.
- 27:16Speaker 7: Points, Ross, actually not so bad. 12,000 students, bad enough, right?
- 27:21Speaker 7: Orange County is down almost 7,700 students. Seminole and Osceola
- 27:25Speaker 7: Counties each saw a decline of about 2,000 students. And
- 27:28Speaker 7: Lake County is down about 200 students. Overall, the Sentinel
- 27:33Speaker 7: reports these numbers represent a drop between 3% and 4%.
- 27:36Speaker 7: There you go, Ross, compared to last year. All right,
- 27:40Speaker 7: speaking of schools, you want to feel like a slacker?
- 27:44Speaker 2: Oh, man, I'm way ahead of you.
- 27:48Speaker 7: A former Miami-Dade College engineering professor is in the Guinness
- 27:52Speaker 7: Book of World Records.
- 27:53Speaker 3: Okay.
- 27:54Speaker 7: Nathan Thomas was cited last month as the youngest professor
- 27:58Speaker 7: ever for teaching in 2023 at just 18 years old.
- 28:04Speaker 7: He broke a record that had stood for over 300 years.
- 28:08Speaker 2: Get out of here, really?
- 28:09Speaker 7: Thomas attended Miami Dade College when he was just 10,
- 28:13Speaker 7: got his high school diploma and associate's degree at 14,
- 28:18Speaker 7: graduated from FIU at 16, and earned a master's in
- 28:22Speaker 7: electrical engineering at 18.
- 28:24Speaker 3: Jeez Louise.
- 28:25Speaker 7: Thomas is now 20, and he stopped teaching so he
- 28:28Speaker 7: can attend law school at the University of Miami.
- 28:31Speaker 2: You hire a 20-year-old lawyer?
- 28:32Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 28:33Speaker 4: With that resume?
- 28:35Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 28:36Speaker 7: He says he wasn't all that excited when he found
- 28:38Speaker 7: out he made the Guinness Book of World Records and
- 28:41Speaker 7: he tells the Miami Herald his reaction was, oh, Pretty cool,
- 28:44Speaker 7: I guess.
- 28:45Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, I guess when you do all that
- 28:47Speaker 2: other stuff, that probably seems trivial.
- 28:49Speaker 3: So he's a real fawn. Yeah, yeah. All right.
- 28:54Speaker 7: You're going to want to step outside tonight because we
- 28:56Speaker 7: have a celestial sight in store, a near full lunar eclipse.
- 29:01Speaker 3: Really?
- 29:01Speaker 7: A blood moon eclipse will be visible starting tonight. just
- 29:05Speaker 7: after 10.30 p.m., with it peaking about midnight.
- 29:09Speaker 13: It always turns an unpredictable shade of orangish-red. I've even
- 29:13Speaker 13: seen them sometimes.
- 29:14Speaker 3: Brown and more bronze-colored.
- 29:16Speaker 13: And the reason it's unpredictable is because it depends on
- 29:20Speaker 13: how much dust and dirt there is.
- 29:21Speaker 1: In the atmosphere.
- 29:22Speaker 4: So Broward College's Bueller, Bueller?
- 29:25Speaker 3: Bueller.
- 29:25Speaker 4: Bueller.
- 29:27Speaker 7: Planetarium director Mark Bennett says with about 95% of the
- 29:30Speaker 7: moon in the Earth's shadow, we'll see just a faint
- 29:33Speaker 7: sliver of white. And unlike a solar eclipse, no protective
- 29:37Speaker 7: glasses are needed. Neither are telescopes or binoculars. they say
- 29:40Speaker 7: this is actually one of the better naked eyes celestial
- 29:43Speaker 7: events that you can see well our next partial lunar
- 29:46Speaker 7: eclipse is february twentieth twenty twenty seven right with a
- 29:50Speaker 7: total eclipse visible in florida.
- 29:52Speaker 4: In june of twenty twenty nine well.
- 29:55Speaker 3: You know so it's like the moon but like way
- 29:57Speaker 3: smaller right and.
- 29:59Speaker 7: Then finally this has been ranked as the least hard-working
- 30:04Speaker 7: state in the country in twenty twenty six is according
- 30:07Speaker 7: to a new WalletHub report. What say you on the
- 30:12Speaker 7: least hardworking state? What do you think it is?
- 30:14Speaker 3: Somebody else go first.
- 30:15Speaker 7: Yeah.
- 30:16Speaker 3: Go ahead, Jack.
- 30:16Speaker 5: Ross.
- 30:17Speaker 3: Who did this survey? What's Scrooge?
- 30:20Speaker 8: But someone walked into a boardroom and was like, guys,
- 30:23Speaker 8: we got to tear down the walls.
- 30:25Speaker 3: We got to shoot some shots here. Yeah, people need
- 30:27Speaker 3: to know. People got to know who are the lazy Minnesota.
- 30:31Speaker 3: You said Minnesota? I don't know. It was the first
- 30:33Speaker 3: thing that jumped out to my mind. I've never been there. Hawaii.
- 30:36Speaker 4: All right.
- 30:36Speaker 3: Oh, Jack. I'm going to go West by God, Virginia.
- 30:40Speaker 3: How about Michigan?
- 30:42Speaker 5: Really?
- 30:42Speaker 7: Michigan has been ranked as the least hardworking state in
- 30:46Speaker 7: the country in 2026. How do they factor that? That's
- 30:49Speaker 7: according to a new WalletHub report, which ranked how hard
- 30:53Speaker 7: each state works based on factors such as average workweek hours,
- 30:57Speaker 7: the number of workers with multiple jobs, and average leisure
- 31:01Speaker 7: time spent per day. So Michigan took 50th place, meaning
- 31:05Speaker 7: it's the least hardworking. The hardest working state was?
- 31:08Speaker 3: Texas.
- 31:11Speaker 1: Hawaii.
- 31:13Speaker 3: You're such a dick. Oh, God.
- 31:16Speaker 2: Is it Canada?
- 31:17Speaker 3: I'm sorry. That's okay. Let's see. I will go Idaho. Okay.
- 31:27Speaker 3: South Dakota.
- 31:28Speaker 5: Okay.
- 31:28Speaker 3: I was close. You were close. You were close. How
- 31:30Speaker 3: is that even possible? There's like eight people in South Dakota.
- 31:33Speaker 3: Are they all pulling doubles? Followed by North Dakota.
- 31:38Speaker 5: Okay.
- 31:39Speaker 7: And Alaska. And if you've been– I mean, again, those
- 31:42Speaker 7: farms up there, that's thousands and thousands and thousands of
- 31:46Speaker 7: acres they're farming up there.
- 31:47Speaker 4: That's no small thing.
- 31:48Speaker 2: And there's not that many people.
- 31:49Speaker 4: No.
- 31:50Speaker 2: So there's not like a plethora of people to pull from.
- 31:52Speaker 2: And in Alaska, it's all the oil.
- 31:53Speaker 4: And logging and all this stuff up there.
- 31:56Speaker 3: Yeah, fishing.
- 31:58Speaker 7: Some very, very difficult industries to work in and some
- 32:01Speaker 7: of the more dangerous as well.
- 32:02Speaker 4: Yeah, absolutely.
- 32:03Speaker 3: And methamphetamines. Yeah, yeah.
- 32:05Speaker 2: They get paid up there, though, dude.
- 32:06Speaker 3: They get paid, but.
- 32:07Speaker 2: You know where to go to spend it.
- 32:08Speaker 3: Exactly.
- 32:09Speaker 4: Exactly.
- 32:10Speaker 8: Those Dakotas be itching some scabs every now and then, though.
- 32:13Speaker 8: So they got some uppers running through their blood. Well,
- 32:15Speaker 8: the reason they can work so hard is they never sleep.
- 32:18Speaker 8: And I'm telling you why. Methamphetamines.
- 32:20Speaker 4: And that concludes your JCS News.
- 32:23Speaker 3: I don't want to go. Oh, very nice.
- 32:29Speaker 5: All right.
- 32:30Speaker 3: Was that too abrupt? Can we practice this?
- 32:32Speaker 2: I don't know what it was. How about you practice it?
- 32:34Speaker 2: I'm going to play the bass. I think he does
- 32:36Speaker 2: a great job.
- 32:37Speaker 3: I think he does, too. Thanks, man.
- 32:39Speaker 8: I really appreciate that. It's like I'm sweating every time
- 32:43Speaker 8: we get to the end of news. I'm like, what
- 32:46Speaker 8: tune am I going to.
- 32:47Speaker 3: I don't know. There's no tune. Thanks, man. Hey, come on, man. Man.
- 32:55Speaker 3: You want a different one? There's no tune, dude. You're
- 32:58Speaker 3: just making it up, and I appreciate it. How do
- 33:00Speaker 3: you think tunes start? You make them up.
- 33:04Speaker 2: All right.
- 33:05Speaker 3: 407-916-1041.
- 33:05Speaker 2: Text us 77031. Back in a sec with more of
- 33:08Speaker 2: the Jim Colbert Show.
- 33:14Speaker 15: Hey, how's it, Ohana? Yeah, actually, me and my boss
- 33:16Speaker 15: were talking about this two days ago. And yes, it's
- 33:19Speaker 15: definitely illegal, but I want to get a triple trumpet.
- 33:24Speaker 15: Underneath the hood of my car. And run the sound
- 33:27Speaker 15: of an automatic 50 cal over and.
- 33:30Speaker 3: Over and over through it. That'll clear traffic.
- 33:33Speaker 5: Aloha.
- 33:34Speaker 3: And your good name. I can believe that about Michigan.
- 33:39Speaker 3: Not being the hardest working state.
- 33:42Speaker 1: You go over there and.
- 33:43Speaker 3: All they do is bitch.
- 33:45Speaker 6: Bitch, bitch, bitch.
- 33:46Speaker 3: They're just a bunch of bitchers. My God.
- 33:50Speaker 2: Really?
- 33:50Speaker 3: Get a job, Michigan. I didn't know that about Michigan.
- 33:54Speaker 20: Okay, I just finished watching the GTA 6 extended look,
- 33:57Speaker 20: and I'm an OG GTA fan. I've literally been playing
- 33:59Speaker 20: these games for 30 years, so don't think this is
- 34:02Speaker 20: hate on them.
- 34:02Speaker 3: I'm excited.
- 34:03Speaker 20: But one thing that stood out to me, and kind
- 34:05Speaker 20: of scares me, honestly, after all this time, is the
- 34:08Speaker 20: graphical inconsistency they just presented. One scene will look photorealistic,
- 34:12Speaker 20: and the next one will look pretty blurry and have
- 34:15Speaker 20: a crappy frame rate. So, considering this game comes out
- 34:18Speaker 20: in a few months, I think this proves that it's
- 34:21Speaker 20: not as finished as we all thought.
- 34:24Speaker 2: Maybe more about that tomorrow for 8-Bit Update.
- 34:28Speaker 3: Yep. I'm sure that will be on the mind of J.G.
- 34:31Speaker 2: Grimes.
- 34:31Speaker 3: At a special time, it's 6 o'clock tomorrow. We have
- 34:35Speaker 3: a shortened show due to the Tampa Bay Bucs, so
- 34:37Speaker 3: we've moved things around, but it.
- 34:38Speaker 8: Is going to be jam-packed. And, Jim, I'm on the
- 34:42Speaker 8: edge of my seat for J.G. 's next segment because
- 34:45Speaker 8: I need to know the update of the GTA 6 Hacker.
- 34:49Speaker 8: I'm on the edge of my seat when it comes
- 34:51Speaker 8: to the GTA 6 hacker.
- 34:52Speaker 3: I'm fully invested.
- 34:53Speaker 2: We've already had people texting us since we got on
- 34:57Speaker 2: the air about GTA 6. Yeah, well, at 3 o'clock
- 35:01Speaker 2: today is when they released the trailer on Netflix. Got it,
- 35:03Speaker 2: got it, got it. All right, 407-916-1041. Text us, 77031.
- 35:08Speaker 2: I am Jim. Deb, Jack, and Ross are here as well.
- 35:12Speaker 2: Let's see what else we have here today. Man, I
- 35:15Speaker 2: don't want to do that first. Oh, did you guys
- 35:19Speaker 2: see the new meta terms? Like, I know the meta
- 35:22Speaker 2: thing made a big splash yesterday. With their settlement? Yeah,
- 35:25Speaker 2: with the settlement. Of course, James Uthmeyer said that they
- 35:30Speaker 2: were not going to accept it here in Florida, that
- 35:31Speaker 2: he was going to continue suing them in, I guess,
- 35:34Speaker 2: our courts. And he was not going to dip into
- 35:38Speaker 2: or accept the payout from the $ 18 billion payout that
- 35:41Speaker 2: they agreed to pay. How many states was it?
- 35:43Speaker 7: Right.
- 35:44Speaker 2: 20 or something states or whatever.
- 35:45Speaker 8: And there's two ways to take that news. And I
- 35:48Speaker 8: don't like the way that I take it, which is
- 35:50Speaker 8: a pessimist glass half empty kind of way, which is like,
- 35:54Speaker 8: I don't trust the end result. You, it seems without
- 35:57Speaker 8: really knowing too much that there's a possibility of him
- 36:00Speaker 8: going like, oh yeah, we'll never be part of any settlement.
- 36:03Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 36:03Speaker 2: You, I think the Roblox, was it Roblox that we
- 36:05Speaker 2: got to interview the guy?
- 36:06Speaker 3: Yes. Yeah.
- 36:06Speaker 6: Yeah.
- 36:06Speaker 2: I think the Roblox thing for me kind of turned,
- 36:08Speaker 2: I kind of turned me toward you. I have an
- 36:12Speaker 2: innate nature to believe people in positions like that simply
- 36:16Speaker 2: because my theory is, hey, you got there doing something
- 36:20Speaker 2: like that. You should have incurred these things on the
- 36:25Speaker 2: way and then solved these issues. And that guy told
- 36:28Speaker 2: us a bald face lie right to our face. I mean,
- 36:30Speaker 2: he said they'd controlled that issue. They were installing new
- 36:34Speaker 2: problems and not even a month after that. Those problems
- 36:36Speaker 2: continue to exist with people using Roblox as a way
- 36:40Speaker 2: to get into and talk to kids and possibly start
- 36:43Speaker 2: the grooming process.
- 36:44Speaker 3: And how much was the settlement again?
- 36:46Speaker 2: $ 18 billion for Facebook or for Meta.
- 36:49Speaker 8: So that's a good heads up for any parent out there.
- 36:52Speaker 8: If you ever feel a little paranoid about, like, I
- 36:56Speaker 8: am really militant about my child's phone, well, social media
- 37:00Speaker 8: just gave you 18 billion reasons why that you should
- 37:03Speaker 8: keep up that attitude.
- 37:04Speaker 3: Stay strong.
- 37:05Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 37:05Speaker 3: It's all right to know what your kid is consuming digitally.
- 37:08Speaker 4: Hell yeah.
- 37:09Speaker 3: It's more important than ever. It really is. It really is.
- 37:12Speaker 8: I mean, you're never going to see a Facebook commercial
- 37:15Speaker 8: go like, Hey guys, we settled, but that's real news, man.
- 37:18Speaker 8: That's real money. That's a real day in a business
- 37:21Speaker 8: of $ 18 billion.
- 37:23Speaker 3: That's settled.
- 37:24Speaker 8: That's them telling you, Hey, we really took advantage of
- 37:28Speaker 8: the world.
- 37:28Speaker 6: No, no, no, no.
- 37:29Speaker 3: They did not admit guilt.
- 37:31Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 37:32Speaker 2: That's the thing is that they didn't have to. You
- 37:33Speaker 2: can say, Suck my toes.
- 37:36Speaker 3: I don't know. I'm sorry. I know. That's strong language.
- 37:40Speaker 8: That sentence came out of nowhere and I was surprised
- 37:42Speaker 8: I said it too.
- 37:43Speaker 2: The story I said today on Newsweek actually calls Facebook
- 37:46Speaker 2: or Meta or Instagram. The new cigarettes.
- 37:50Speaker 10: Yes.
- 37:50Speaker 2: Yeah, and the reason why is because now we are
- 37:52Speaker 2: basically keeping kids away from this product as if it's
- 37:56Speaker 2: as harmful as a cigarette is. The agreement, basically, which
- 37:59Speaker 2: was announced yesterday, still requires federal court approval, but it
- 38:03Speaker 2: would impose a combined two-hour daily limit on Facebook and
- 38:06Speaker 2: Instagram for users between the ages of 13 and 17.
- 38:09Speaker 2: It would completely block access for those users between midnight
- 38:13Speaker 2: and 6 a.m., restrict school-hour notifications.
- 38:17Speaker 3: Restrict.
- 38:19Speaker 2: Not stop, restrict school hour notifications. I do not know
- 38:24Speaker 2: what notifications would be important enough for a 13 to
- 38:27Speaker 2: 17 year old to receive while they're in class. I
- 38:30Speaker 2: don't know that. It also requires stronger age checks and
- 38:34Speaker 2: with an independent auditor and the state's monitoring meta compliance.
- 38:37Speaker 3: If your kid is at school and you have a
- 38:40Speaker 3: family emergency and you want to get in touch with them,
- 38:42Speaker 3: do you think that should be able to go through? Well,
- 38:45Speaker 3: the funny thing is … That would be text messaging, right?
- 38:47Speaker 3: That would be a text. That could be, but they
- 38:49Speaker 3: also have Facebook Messenger, and people use that to communicate,
- 38:53Speaker 3: which is a form of communication I think they're referring to.
- 38:55Speaker 2: Yeah, it certainly is, but I would agree with Debra.
- 38:57Speaker 2: I mean, there are other aspects. You can still text.
- 38:59Speaker 2: I don't know of a phone that doesn't have the
- 39:02Speaker 2: ability to text, but I do know phones that can't
- 39:05Speaker 2: carry Facebook or … Or Instagram.
- 39:07Speaker 3: I get that. And I like the idea of all
- 39:09Speaker 3: phones not being used at school. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I'm
- 39:14Speaker 3: on board with that. How about this?
- 39:15Speaker 2: Maybe they're backpacks. Has anybody invented a backpack that has that?
- 39:19Speaker 2: What's that thing called?
- 39:20Speaker 3: The RFD?
- 39:21Speaker 2: What's that?
- 39:22Speaker 3: I said Faraday cage. Yeah, yeah.
- 39:24Speaker 2: She said RFID. Yeah, same type thing, right? Where it
- 39:27Speaker 2: doesn't allow the phone to get messages or send messages.
- 39:30Speaker 2: and you could basically lock it in a backpack where
- 39:32Speaker 2: that pocket would provide that, almost like when we went
- 39:34Speaker 2: to see Dave Chappelle, you had to put your phone
- 39:36Speaker 2: in one of those bags.
- 39:37Speaker 3: Static bags. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 39:39Speaker 2: So a backpack like that might be a cool thing.
- 39:42Speaker 7: My question is, whatever they're going to come up with,
- 39:45Speaker 7: this younger generation is.
- 39:46Speaker 3: We're going to find a way around it. Of course.
- 39:48Speaker 8: And also, I'll speak on a generation of parents as well.
- 39:52Speaker 8: You try to tell a parent, the parent who is
- 39:55Speaker 8: on top of everything, right? You're going to tell me
- 39:57Speaker 8: my kid can't call me at any moment? My kid's
- 40:00Speaker 8: not on social media. Your kid's in school, though, dude.
- 40:03Speaker 8: I mean, look, my kid was in school.
- 40:04Speaker 3: I'm playing. It's just an act out of a parent.
- 40:07Speaker 3: I'm sorry. Simmer down. It's an act out.
- 40:11Speaker 2: So if you were– you guys remember what happened over
- 40:13Speaker 2: there at– what was the elementary school over off of
- 40:16Speaker 2: Ronald Reagan, Jack?
- 40:18Speaker 3: Yeah. Millwee. Okay.
- 40:20Speaker 2: It was actually a middle school, Millwee Middle School. My
- 40:23Speaker 2: daughters were in that school when that kid came on
- 40:25Speaker 2: campus with that gun, and the cops actually shot him
- 40:27Speaker 2: in the bathroom. And it turned out to be a
- 40:29Speaker 2: fake gun. He had broken the orange tip off the gun.
- 40:31Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 40:32Speaker 2: But it looked so real. And he was kind of
- 40:34Speaker 2: a troubled kid. He and his brother both were kind
- 40:36Speaker 2: of like that. My son and some other people knew
- 40:39Speaker 2: him or knew of him. And he said they were
- 40:42Speaker 2: good kids. They were just kind of poor and kind
- 40:44Speaker 2: of outcasts. And the cops wound up shooting that kid
- 40:48Speaker 2: in the bathroom because he brandished the gun as if
- 40:50Speaker 2: he was going to do that. And they were in
- 40:52Speaker 2: school when that happened.
- 40:54Speaker 3: Did he survive?
- 40:55Speaker 2: No, they killed him.
- 40:56Speaker 6: Whoa.
- 40:57Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah.
- 40:58Speaker 3: That was an elementary school. That was a middle school.
- 41:00Speaker 2: Middle school, sorry.
- 41:01Speaker 3: Yeah, middle school. I think it was like a 12, 11, 12,
- 41:03Speaker 3: 12 years old, something like that. By breaking off that
- 41:06Speaker 3: orange tip on the gun, it made it look like
- 41:08Speaker 3: a real weapon.
- 41:09Speaker 2: I mean, for me to jack, there's no way to
- 41:10Speaker 2: tell the difference. I mean, some of them are so
- 41:12Speaker 2: unbelievably convincing. I don't know that anybody, even a professional,
- 41:15Speaker 2: could tell if it was not real. My kids were
- 41:17Speaker 2: in school that day. They had phones on them. So
- 41:19Speaker 2: it was a great blessing for us to be able
- 41:21Speaker 2: to have that. So I have a biased opinion of that.
- 41:24Speaker 2: But I do believe it takes great discipline from the
- 41:26Speaker 2: parent and the student to be able to figure out
- 41:28Speaker 2: what the parameters of using that while on campus are.
- 41:32Speaker 3: We just don't know.
- 41:33Speaker 8: It's so weird that we don't know how addicting it
- 41:36Speaker 8: is other than just hearing the word addicting. Because you
- 41:40Speaker 8: wouldn't give a 14-year-old a cigarette.
- 41:42Speaker 3: No.
- 41:43Speaker 8: But I know there's a lot of 14-year-olds that has
- 41:46Speaker 8: social media, and I know that they're very different. But
- 41:48Speaker 8: like I said, we don't know the end result of
- 41:52Speaker 8: an entire generation of people being born and raised on
- 41:55Speaker 8: social media.
- 41:56Speaker 3: How addicting is it?
- 41:57Speaker 2: I think I'd rather have my kids smoke a couple
- 41:58Speaker 2: cigarettes a week than have social media sometimes.
- 42:01Speaker 3: Yeah. 407-916-1041.
- 42:02Speaker 2: You say how addicting. It's like, which one long-term does
- 42:06Speaker 2: more damage? That's what I say.
- 42:08Speaker 3: A couple a week.
- 42:08Speaker 21: Oh, no.
- 42:09Speaker 3: Everything in moderation. All right.
- 42:10Speaker 2: Back on the set with Chloe G.
- 42:15Speaker 3: What up, guys?
- 42:15Speaker 12: Sport from Duval.
- 42:17Speaker 3: Duval. Obviously, I don't live in Orlando, but we go
- 42:19Speaker 3: down there quite often.
- 42:20Speaker 20: And we went to Capone's.
- 42:21Speaker 3: That's some good pizza, man. That place has some really
- 42:24Speaker 3: good pizza.
- 42:25Speaker 20: But I think you guys are missing, like, the best
- 42:27Speaker 20: gimmick of all when it comes to restaurants.
- 42:29Speaker 3: I mean, the food was okay, but the best gimmick

- 47:51Speaker 16: No, hey, we can go all day. Okay, so also
- 47:54Speaker 16: on Friday, for the first time in nearly two decades.
- 47:58Speaker 16: Orlando is getting to host a traveling exhibit from the
- 48:02Speaker 16: artist Isamu Noguchi. He is largely credited with shaping what
- 48:07Speaker 16: we now consider the mid-century modern aesthetic in the art world.
- 48:11Speaker 16: He's known for abstract sculptures that are made from both
- 48:15Speaker 16: natural and industrial materials. The specific pieces that will be
- 48:20Speaker 16: shown in Orlando at the Manello Museum were created in
- 48:24Speaker 16: the very end years of his life, so 1982 and 3.
- 48:29Speaker 16: These works kind of play into ideas of feeling caught
- 48:33Speaker 16: in between two cultures as he is Japanese American and
- 48:36Speaker 16: also this theme of like nature versus industry. So even
- 48:39Speaker 16: if you're not so well versed in this type of
- 48:42Speaker 16: art or with this artist specifically, this is a really
- 48:45Speaker 16: cool and rare opportunity to see the work of a
- 48:47Speaker 16: really influential name.
- 48:49Speaker 2: What's his name again?
- 48:50Speaker 16: Isamu Noguchi.
- 48:52Speaker 1: Okay.
- 48:52Speaker 2: Is that the guy who had the museum out in
- 48:55Speaker 2: Mount Dora? The guy who collected all that?
- 48:58Speaker 16: That's the... You know what? Let me fact talk myself.
- 49:01Speaker 3: Before I keep talking.
- 49:02Speaker 5: That's okay.
- 49:02Speaker 3: Go ahead. That's a journalist.
- 49:03Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 49:03Speaker 16: Yeah. So, yes, the exhibit opens Friday at the Manali
- 49:09Speaker 16: Museum and it runs through the end of February.
- 49:13Speaker 2: If that's the same guy and that's some of the
- 49:14Speaker 2: most desirable furniture and art on planet Earth.
- 49:17Speaker 16: It's absolutely. like I'm not a huge modern art connoisseur
- 49:21Speaker 16: but it actually is so interesting to look at it's
- 49:23Speaker 16: all kind of like almost like alienistic abstract sculptures I
- 49:27Speaker 16: really think it's cool awesome very cool Devo performs in
- 49:32Speaker 16: Orlando this weekend.
- 49:34Speaker 3: Nice.
- 49:35Speaker 4: Whip it.
- 49:35Speaker 16: This show takes place Sunday at the Hard Rock Live
- 49:39Speaker 16: as part of their Mutate Don't Stagnate tour. We at
- 49:43Speaker 16: the Orlando Weekly actually interviewed Devo founding member, Gerald Casale,
- 49:48Speaker 16: ahead of the show. And he talked a lot about
- 49:50Speaker 16: themes of this tour being the importance of being flexible
- 49:55Speaker 16: as people. as cultures change and the evolution that we
- 49:58Speaker 16: face like internally as people which is very topical also
- 50:02Speaker 16: because he also spoke a lot about the changing fan
- 50:04Speaker 16: bases the band sees so a lot of the original
- 50:07Speaker 16: fans that he had kind of early on you know
- 50:09Speaker 16: are now bringing children and grandchildren to the shows and
- 50:12Speaker 16: he's seeing this evolution of new ages of fans so
- 50:16Speaker 16: going to make for a very good, really passionate show.
- 50:18Speaker 2: Yeah, Devo actually is short for De-Evolution.
- 50:20Speaker 3: Yes.
- 50:21Speaker 2: And they're a really interesting band. They broke when we
- 50:23Speaker 2: were kids, when we were young, so we'd never seen
- 50:26Speaker 2: anything like that. I don't even know what to compare
- 50:29Speaker 2: them to now.
- 50:30Speaker 3: Nothing.
- 50:30Speaker 2: I don't know that there's anything like that.
- 50:32Speaker 3: Nope. That was completely, utterly out of left field. That
- 50:36Speaker 3: was art school rock.
- 50:37Speaker 17: Yeah.
- 50:37Speaker 2: Era of music where nobody was like, what in the...
- 50:40Speaker 2: I mean, even in the weird people were like, what
- 50:41Speaker 2: is that?
- 50:42Speaker 21: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 50:43Speaker 3: I bet there are bands doing that, but we have
- 50:45Speaker 3: zero exposure to it because it's just out there in
- 50:48Speaker 3: the ether. It's not like it used to be.
- 50:52Speaker 16: Yeah, well, they will be here this weekend.
- 50:55Speaker 3: Sunday night, we gave away tickets. Some of our listeners
- 50:59Speaker 3: will be attending. Very nice.
- 51:00Speaker 16: Perfect. Tomorrow is also the first official day of Halloween
- 51:07Speaker 16: Horror Nights back at Universal. This is one of the
- 51:10Speaker 16: earliest start dates the event has seen. It will run
- 51:15Speaker 16: on select nights starting tomorrow, Friday, through November 1st. This
- 51:19Speaker 16: year is the event's 35th anniversary. There are 10 houses,
- 51:25Speaker 16: as always, that are a mix of original concepts and
- 51:29Speaker 16: then based off of TV and film franchises as well.
- 51:33Speaker 16: Some of the big houses this year are themed after
- 51:36Speaker 16: the movie Sinners, Hellraiser, Evil Dad, the newest season of
- 51:41Speaker 16: Stranger Things, and there's going to be an Ozzy Osbourne
- 51:45Speaker 16: Prince of Darkness house as well. So tickets range in
- 51:49Speaker 16: price on each different day that you want to go.
- 51:53Speaker 16: And you can also upgrade for special passes and experiences
- 51:57Speaker 16: as well, depending on the day.
- 51:58Speaker 2: And the cost for one night is a clean liver.
- 52:03Speaker 2: And if you want to go two nights, it's a
- 52:04Speaker 2: clean liver and two good kidneys. And a lead on
- 52:07Speaker 2: a fresh baby.
- 52:08Speaker 8: Best IP house, Hellraiser. Best OG house, HR Blood and Guts.
- 52:14Speaker 3: Very nice. That's my ranking, and I will die on
- 52:16Speaker 3: that hill.
- 52:17Speaker 2: We are broadcasting live from there next Friday to celebrate
- 52:20Speaker 2: the beginning of Halloween Horror Nights and looking always forward
- 52:23Speaker 2: to it, as we do every year.
- 52:24Speaker 16: That is so fun. Are you going to be scared.
- 52:26Speaker 3: Or like that?
- 52:28Speaker 2: I don't really get scared of stuff like that, but
- 52:29Speaker 2: my wife is one of my favorite times of the
- 52:31Speaker 2: year for her. She loves Halloween horror nights. I've been probably,
- 52:34Speaker 2: I think I went last year and I skip, I
- 52:37Speaker 2: skip about every two years or something.
- 52:38Speaker 3: And then I go, yeah, yeah.
- 52:39Speaker 16: Okay.
- 52:40Speaker 22: Okay.
- 52:40Speaker 3: Sounds like a guy who's scared. It's a hassle.
- 52:41Speaker 16: It's a lot of, you have to, it's a production.
- 52:43Speaker 16: You really have to go in ready for the day.
- 52:45Speaker 2: You got to be ready to walk in much. And
- 52:47Speaker 2: I walk is not my favorite thing, but.
- 52:49Speaker 16: You're standing, you're standing in line a lot as well,
- 52:51Speaker 16: but it's worth it.
- 52:52Speaker 3: It is for sure.
- 52:53Speaker 16: And that's what I have for you this weekend.
- 52:54Speaker 17: Nice.
- 52:55Speaker 20: Yay.
- 52:55Speaker 3: All right.
- 52:57Speaker 2: You've got a lot of stuff going on out there.

- 53:16Speaker 5: Jim, Jim. Me and mom are headed, I'm sorry, mom
- 53:24Speaker 5: and I are headed back to the villages.
- 53:27Speaker 17: And we on the turnpike right now.
- 53:31Speaker 8: And it is a downpour.
- 53:34Speaker 15: That is proportions.
- 53:39Speaker 7: I bet you you can hear it.
- 53:41Speaker 3: Yeah, we can, buddy. Good afternoon, Covert Crew. Michael P.
- 53:46Speaker 7: Checking in.
- 53:47Speaker 23: First, I've been in and out today. Are y'all doing
- 53:49Speaker 23: Theater Thursday? And second, how do we know for a
- 53:54Speaker 23: fact that the toothbrush was invented in Mississippi? Because if
- 53:59Speaker 23: it had been invented anywhere else, it'd be called a
- 54:01Speaker 23: teeth brush.
- 54:04Speaker 22: Classic. Jim, Jim, right after I left that cockpit, there
- 54:10Speaker 22: was a bolt of lightning that looked like it came
- 54:13Speaker 22: from heaven to above that.
- 54:17Speaker 3: Almost hit the car.
- 54:19Speaker 13: All right.
- 54:21Speaker 5: That was fun. I almost cursed.
- 54:24Speaker 2: I think I peed a little.
- 54:25Speaker 7: Okay.
- 54:27Speaker 19: All right.
- 54:27Speaker 4: Your mom's thinking about rolling you out the car on
- 54:30Speaker 4: the turnpike.
- 54:30Speaker 3: Good Lord. So basically, he called back to tell him, hey,
- 54:36Speaker 3: there was lightning. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Right from the sky. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 54:38Speaker 2: Right there from the sky. It only comes from the sewer.
- 54:44Speaker 7: Well.
- 54:44Speaker 2: Welcome back to the Jim Colbert Show.
- 54:46Speaker 3: I'm Jim. There's Deb.
- 54:46Speaker 4: Hello.
- 54:47Speaker 3: Yep. And Ross. Believe in yourself.
- 54:50Speaker 2: Colbert Court coming up in just a few minutes. We're
- 54:52Speaker 2: doing another You Be the Jury today. So we'll have
- 54:56Speaker 2: a case and we have to try to figure it out.
- 54:57Speaker 2: Yesterday or last week was kind of a bit of
- 54:59Speaker 2: a trick one, right?
- 55:02Speaker 4: If I remember correctly, yeah.
- 55:03Speaker 3: A little tricky.
- 55:04Speaker 2: I don't think we had an answer for her, remember?
- 55:06Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 55:07Speaker 3: Oh, we had an answer.
- 55:07Speaker 4: It just wasn't a good one.
- 55:08Speaker 3: The one was she wasn't going to get nothing. That
- 55:11Speaker 3: was the answer. Oh, yeah. Okay, that one. I thought
- 55:13Speaker 3: it was the one where we were determining the amount
- 55:15Speaker 3: of money. That might have been two weeks ago that
- 55:18Speaker 3: the person was due.
- 55:20Speaker 22: Yeah.
- 55:20Speaker 3: All right.
- 55:21Speaker 4: 407-916-1041.
- 55:21Speaker 2: Text us at 77031. I want to talk about this,
- 55:27Speaker 2: but I want to talk about it a little bit later, too.
- 55:28Speaker 2: But I saw something today online. It was a Facebook post.
- 55:32Speaker 2: And a lot of people, when they have problems with
- 55:34Speaker 2: the restaurants or whatever, they'll post their receipt and then
- 55:37Speaker 2: kind of bring attention to what part of it they
- 55:39Speaker 2: don't really care for. And I didn't know that restaurants
- 55:43Speaker 2: charged for this. I do want to talk about this
- 55:45Speaker 2: a little bit later, but I want to bring it
- 55:46Speaker 2: up now and kind of get it on everybody's mind. Um,
- 55:49Speaker 2: so the person went to lunch, they ordered like salmon
- 55:52Speaker 2: and a tuna appetizer and a, some water and, you know,
- 55:56Speaker 2: an espresso because they had like a little dessert or whatever,
- 55:59Speaker 2: but that wasn't even really the thing because at the bottom,
- 56:01Speaker 2: when they tipped, they wrote a note and then circled it.
- 56:05Speaker 2: And the note was this $ 12.
- 56:08Speaker 3: For an extra fork question mark.
- 56:11Speaker 2: And what that was is, is apparently the people who
- 56:15Speaker 2: are dining shared a dish. Ah, And they charged them
- 56:21Speaker 2: $ 12 for a plate fee.
- 56:23Speaker 3: Oh, wow. A split plate fee. Now, the funny thing
- 56:28Speaker 3: is this.
- 56:28Speaker 2: If you go to Magical and you do the split
- 56:31Speaker 2: plate thing, you're probably going to get side-eyed, right? Because
- 56:34Speaker 2: the whole idea there is to have you experience more
- 56:37Speaker 2: than that. You're not splitting that one dish.
- 56:39Speaker 4: Well, you're already getting a fixed … And you're already
- 56:41Speaker 4: getting a great deal. Yeah, exactly. So to split a
- 56:44Speaker 4: plate just is gauche.
- 56:45Speaker 2: And by the way, my wife and I have done
- 56:47Speaker 2: this more lately than we've done in probably the last
- 56:50Speaker 2: 20 years of our marriage … Because we just don't
- 56:52Speaker 2: want all that food. So we'll order an appetizer that
- 56:54Speaker 2: we both want separately. Then we decide on an entree
- 56:58Speaker 2: that we can split. And then we'll usually split a dessert.
- 57:02Speaker 2: Just simply because. Not because we're trying to save money
- 57:03Speaker 2: by any means. It just works out that way. We
- 57:06Speaker 2: just don't want all the food because we wind up
- 57:07Speaker 2: wasting it or taking it home and it doesn't get
- 57:09Speaker 2: eaten or whatever. Yeah, because you find actively trying to
- 57:12Speaker 2: save money goes against every fiber of your body.
- 57:14Speaker 3: Exactly. But $ 12 for an extra plate to eat? That's crazy.
- 57:19Speaker 8: Is that deep or is that just me? No, that's offensive. Yeah, yeah.
- 57:24Speaker 8: It's flagrant.
- 57:24Speaker 4: It is, but it isn't.
- 57:26Speaker 3: Should there be a charge at all?
- 57:29Speaker 7: I think you said it yourself, Jimmy. I think restaurants
- 57:32Speaker 7: are seeing this more and more. So not only is
- 57:35Speaker 7: the GLP-1 factor in, right? We've heard of some restaurants
- 57:38Speaker 7: actually coming up with what they call the wife and
- 57:41Speaker 7: girlfriend menu. which is those French fries they say they
- 57:44Speaker 7: don't want. And then when you order them, they're going
- 57:46Speaker 7: to eat them off your plate. So it's kind of
- 57:48Speaker 7: like the smaller plates for adults, because like we've mentioned before,
- 57:52Speaker 7: they just give you too much food.
- 57:54Speaker 4: For one person.
- 57:55Speaker 7: And rather than take it home or waste it, just
- 57:57Speaker 7: let us share it. But then that cuts into the
- 58:00Speaker 7: The profits of the restaurants. And they're really dealing with
- 58:02Speaker 7: people not going out because of the economy, not going
- 58:04Speaker 7: out because of GLP-1s.
- 58:05Speaker 3: When you're taking it out on the people who are
- 58:07Speaker 3: going out and coming to your restaurant.
- 58:10Speaker 8: I know.
- 58:10Speaker 4: I don't know how else they're supposed to.
- 58:12Speaker 8: Yeah.
- 58:13Speaker 2: And the funny thing is, like, the last time we
- 58:14Speaker 2: did this, it actually wasn't even for the entree. We
- 58:17Speaker 2: both wanted a salad, but this restaurant did not offer, like,
- 58:20Speaker 2: a dinner salad.
- 58:21Speaker 4: You took your chance on a salad?
- 58:23Speaker 3: This is a while back. Oh, okay. I was trying
- 58:24Speaker 3: to have a little extra sizzle. He's got demons. He
- 58:28Speaker 3: wanted to lose those extra 10 pounds. Exactly.
- 58:30Speaker 2: A lot of restaurants will offer that little side salad
- 58:33Speaker 2: for $ 3, $ 4, $ 5 or whatever. But this restaurant didn't
- 58:36Speaker 2: offer that. They only offered their, like, dinner-size house salad.
- 58:40Speaker 2: And we split that. We're like, hey, can we split
- 58:42Speaker 2: the house salad? And not only did she say yes,
- 58:46Speaker 2: she actually is the one who recommended it. She goes,
- 58:48Speaker 2: we don't have a house salad, but you can split the–
- 58:50Speaker 2: or a side salad, but you can split the house
- 58:52Speaker 2: salad if you want. I can bring you a couple plates.
- 58:54Speaker 2: And I'm like, yeah, that's awesome.
- 58:55Speaker 3: Thank you.
- 58:55Speaker 2: We've actually had more people offer that in restaurants than
- 58:58Speaker 2: I haven't seen, like, the split plate fee ever.
- 59:02Speaker 4: Is that a higher-end restaurant?
- 59:04Speaker 3: I don't know. I can't remember. Split plate fee? Yeah,
- 59:08Speaker 3: split plate fee.
- 59:10Speaker 2: In other words, if you and Olivia went to a
- 59:11Speaker 2: restaurant and you weren't hungry enough, you wanted to split
- 59:14Speaker 2: a meal, they would charge you 12 extra dollars to
- 59:17Speaker 2: divide that meal in half.
- 59:18Speaker 3: It's a new thing. I don't know why, but I'm
- 59:20Speaker 3: sticking to it. You can suck my toes. Right. That's
- 59:24Speaker 3: an awful call.
- 59:25Speaker 8: Wow, what a fast way to lose likability in any facet.
- 59:31Speaker 8: Don't punish people for sharing. Sharing is caring. You're going
- 59:35Speaker 8: up against the first rule any of us was taught.
- 59:38Speaker 8: And the funny thing is, guess how much the dish
- 59:40Speaker 8: was that they were splitting?
- 59:41Speaker 3: $ 8.
- 59:41Speaker 16: $ 12.
- 59:42Speaker 3: $ 11. That's $ 24.
- 59:46Speaker 2: It's $ 24. It was a $ 24 salmon dish. That's pretty
- 59:48Speaker 2: good price for a salmon dish. That's right on point.
- 59:51Speaker 2: But when they split it in half, look, here's the
- 59:54Speaker 2: crazy thing is I kind of get what Deb's saying.
- 59:56Speaker 2: Like the restaurant saying, yeah, sure. I'll bring you that
- 59:58Speaker 2: extra plate because you've just, you know, now they're not
- 1:00:01Speaker 2: like selling another entree.
- 1:00:03Speaker 3: Could that person go there alone? Yeah, that person can
- 1:00:07Speaker 3: go there alone. Can that person order that salmon entree?
- 1:00:10Speaker 3: Certainly could. Okay, so they brought another person who's getting
- 1:00:14Speaker 3: drinks and other stuff as well, but they get penalized
- 1:00:18Speaker 3: for that. There's the caveat.
- 1:00:19Speaker 2: And they did, by the way, that the other person,
- 1:00:22Speaker 2: the extra person, as you can see, there were two
- 1:00:24Speaker 2: bottled waters, and I think there are two sparkling waters,
- 1:00:27Speaker 2: and two other cocktails or two drinks as well.
- 1:00:29Speaker 7: Okay, so that was the difference maker. I was going
- 1:00:31Speaker 7: to say, if you're just ordering sparkling water, I could
- 1:00:33Speaker 7: see where the restaurant, but if you're making up that
- 1:00:36Speaker 7: cost with, a much more expensive cocktail And it's lunch.
- 1:00:40Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 1:00:41Speaker 7: You're probably not selling that many cocktails at lunch. Dude,
- 1:00:44Speaker 7: you show up, get ice water, take a couple nibbles.
- 1:00:47Speaker 3: This is America.
- 1:00:49Speaker 8: You can't tell me what I get to do or
- 1:00:51Speaker 8: not do with my food via your punishment with a fee, right?
- 1:00:55Speaker 3: It's crazy. The funny thing is they're not really even
- 1:00:57Speaker 3: telling you that.
- 1:00:58Speaker 2: They're just telling you if you want to do this
- 1:01:00Speaker 2: with your food, it's going to cost you 12 extra dollars.
- 1:01:02Speaker 2: The thing is, just don't say anything, right? Just grab
- 1:01:05Speaker 2: a fork and start eating off the other plate.
- 1:01:07Speaker 3: I guess you have to do that now. Yeah, maybe so.
- 1:01:10Speaker 8: And also like throwing this out here, just we can,
- 1:01:13Speaker 8: this is all on the foundation of the agreed statement
- 1:01:15Speaker 8: that they are giving too much food more times than not.
- 1:01:18Speaker 3: I also agree with you, Deb, on that one.
- 1:01:20Speaker 8: So why don't we just dial it back? Or is
- 1:01:22Speaker 8: there just some focus group that here in Western culture
- 1:01:25Speaker 8: that we just don't support restaurants without the pancake going
- 1:01:28Speaker 8: over the plate?
- 1:01:29Speaker 7: I think, I think there's something to be said for that.
- 1:01:31Speaker 7: I think, you know, cause your higher end restaurants, it's,
- 1:01:35Speaker 7: That's always the joke, right? You look in the middle
- 1:01:37Speaker 7: of the plate and there's just a dollop of food
- 1:01:39Speaker 7: that you've paid $ 52 for, you know, and maybe three
- 1:01:42Speaker 7: bites that dish is done. Whereas you'll go to a
- 1:01:45Speaker 7: family style restaurant and your pancake will literally dip off
- 1:01:48Speaker 7: the edge of your plate.
- 1:01:49Speaker 2: Yeah, but the fancy plates, you're kind of paying a
- 1:01:52Speaker 2: little bit for the experience as well.
- 1:01:53Speaker 7: Sure.
- 1:01:54Speaker 2: For the pomp and circumstance.
- 1:01:55Speaker 3: And for that experience, this texter says they work in
- 1:01:57Speaker 3: a fine dining restaurant. If we split entrees, it's $ 7,
- 1:02:02Speaker 3: but it's plated on two plates, and it takes the
- 1:02:04Speaker 3: kitchen time because they make them both look nice.
- 1:02:06Speaker 14: Yeah, yeah.
- 1:02:07Speaker 3: Like it was meant to be that way. Right, right.
- 1:02:08Speaker 3: As opposed to just you cut that one in half
- 1:02:10Speaker 3: and just slide it to another plate. And can I
- 1:02:13Speaker 3: tell you something? Thank you, Wood.
- 1:02:14Speaker 2: At home and if you gave me that if you
- 1:02:16Speaker 2: gave me that and said seven dollars i i would
- 1:02:19Speaker 2: be more apt to even listen to that argument but
- 1:02:22Speaker 2: 12 bucks how about zero am i taking crazy pills.
- 1:02:27Speaker 7: No i think the thing was that they charged but
- 1:02:29Speaker 7: they weren't up front about it.
- 1:02:31Speaker 3: Yeah uh someone else says there's a diner in college
- 1:02:34Speaker 3: park that charges two to four bucks extra to share
- 1:02:36Speaker 3: anything damn really what are we doing I'm sorry. I
- 1:02:42Speaker 3: don't get this. This is what we do as a
- 1:02:46Speaker 3: human race. We share. Yeah, yeah. Then we get charged
- 1:02:50Speaker 3: for it.
- 1:02:50Speaker 2: One of the best burgers in Mount Dora is at 1921,
- 1:02:53Speaker 2: which is a place my wife and I go often.
- 1:02:54Speaker 2: And we sit in the bar because the bar is great.
- 1:02:57Speaker 2: The cocktails are incredible. And we wind up splitting their
- 1:03:00Speaker 2: premium burger, which is like $ 18 or whatever. They never
- 1:03:04Speaker 2: say a word about it. They're perfectly happy with doing that.
- 1:03:07Speaker 2: But we always have an appetizer or two as well,
- 1:03:09Speaker 2: so we're spending money. But also, at the bar, you're
- 1:03:12Speaker 2: not expected to eat food. You don't have to.
- 1:03:15Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah.
- 1:03:16Speaker 2: But we sit at a high top, not at the
- 1:03:17Speaker 2: bar itself.
- 1:03:18Speaker 3: So is that a little different? Well, I don't know.
- 1:03:20Speaker 3: When you sit at the bar, I think it... Oh,
- 1:03:24Speaker 3: it's hot! From the back! From the back! I feel
- 1:03:38Speaker 3: like I'm losing it. I don't want this to get
- 1:03:40Speaker 3: normalized at all.
- 1:03:41Speaker 8: This is the closest I've ever felt like I'm going
- 1:03:44Speaker 8: to be part of a revolution.
- 1:03:45Speaker 2: Somebody just texted and said, I'm with Ross making a
- 1:03:50Speaker 2: toe buffet. All right.
- 1:03:54Speaker 20: 407-916-1041.
- 1:03:54Speaker 2: Colbert Court next.
- 1:03:56Speaker 24: Talking about food and the cost of it and everything.
- 1:03:58Speaker 24: The first time I went to Amsterdam for work, I
- 1:04:02Speaker 24: met with one of my friends that lives there. We
- 1:04:04Speaker 24: went to a two-Michelin-star restaurant, and I couldn't believe the
- 1:04:07Speaker 24: price difference between there and the United States. I think
- 1:04:10Speaker 24: that a five- or seven-course meal was something like $ 70
- 1:04:15Speaker 24: per person.
- 1:04:15Speaker 3: At a two-star. So anyway, cheers, guys. Hope you have
- 1:04:19Speaker 3: a great day. Thanks, buddy. You as well. Thanks for
- 1:04:22Speaker 3: pissing me off. Well, we've been trying to get you
- 1:04:27Speaker 3: to go to Europe. That meal here is like $ 3. 50.
- 1:04:29Speaker 3: You just refuse to go.
- 1:04:31Speaker 2: All right, welcome back to the Jim Colbert Show. We're
- 1:04:32Speaker 2: already at 104.1.
- 1:04:34Speaker 3: I am Jim.
- 1:04:34Speaker 2: Deb is here. Jack is here. And so is Ross.
- 1:04:37Speaker 3: Go to Europe. Let's do Colbert Court.
- 1:04:39Speaker 1: What you are listening to is real. Well, sort of.
- 1:04:42Speaker 1: The participants are not actors. That's a fact. This is, however,
- 1:04:46Speaker 1: a real case that will be decided here in our forum.
- 1:04:51Speaker 1: The Colbert Court.
- 1:04:52Speaker 3: That's right.
- 1:04:52Speaker 2: Colbert Court brought to you by our good friend Glenn
- 1:04:54Speaker 2: Clausman of our Clausman Law. That's K-L-A-U-S-M-A-N-L-A-W.com. Office is right
- 1:04:59Speaker 2: there in Winter Park.
- 1:05:02Speaker 13: 407-917-1718.
- 1:05:02Speaker 3: Car crash call. Clausman. Guys, good laugh for Mr.
- 1:05:04Speaker 2: Glenn Clausman.
- 1:05:05Speaker 22: Yay!
- 1:05:05Speaker 3: Oh, that was my mentor. What's up, partner? How you doing, buddy?
- 1:05:11Speaker 4: Thanks.
- 1:05:11Speaker 3: Good to be here.
- 1:05:13Speaker 2: Have you experienced that? You're an international traveler. You spend
- 1:05:16Speaker 2: a lot of time over in gay Paris. Have you
- 1:05:19Speaker 2: noticed that when you go to the fancy restaurants, it's
- 1:05:21Speaker 2: a little cheaper? Or did you have that experience?
- 1:05:23Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 1:05:24Speaker 14: I mean, we don't go to five-star Michelin places over there.
- 1:05:26Speaker 14: We go to bistros and places like that. And one
- 1:05:28Speaker 14: of the things is the tip is included. So when
- 1:05:31Speaker 14: you take that into consideration, maybe it's a little bit less.
- 1:05:34Speaker 14: Maybe it's not. The fellow just called in. There is
- 1:05:37Speaker 14: a Incredible restaurant that we went to in Amsterdam. Fresh seafood.
- 1:05:42Speaker 14: It's actually a seafood market when you go in, sort of,
- 1:05:45Speaker 14: and you pick whatever you want from the market. They
- 1:05:47Speaker 14: weigh it up, and they cook it a special way.
- 1:05:48Speaker 14: And I forget the name of it, but if anybody's
- 1:05:51Speaker 14: going there and wants to call me, I'll remember by then.
- 1:05:52Speaker 7: That is a bucket list city for me is Amsterdam.
- 1:05:58Speaker 3: It's interesting.
- 1:05:59Speaker 17: Oh, yeah?
- 1:05:59Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 1:06:00Speaker 2: That's still got the red light out there, right? They
- 1:06:02Speaker 2: do somewhere, yeah.
- 1:06:03Speaker 3: Yeah, somewhere. Oh, you see how he did that? That
- 1:06:05Speaker 3: was so smooth, Glenn.
- 1:06:06Speaker 7: I think there's some restrictions, though, for tourists to go
- 1:06:09Speaker 7: to the red light district now.
- 1:06:10Speaker 2: No, no, it's the fact that he says, it's there somewhere.
- 1:06:13Speaker 2: The problem when.
- 1:06:14Speaker 14: We were there was on the weekend, there's so many
- 1:06:17Speaker 14: tourists come over from England and young people, and they
- 1:06:20Speaker 14: kind of trash everything.
- 1:06:21Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah.
- 1:06:22Speaker 3: And then Monday— Monday morning, you're seeing everybody cleaning everything up.
- 1:06:25Speaker 2: I mean, it's like New Orleans. That's exactly how Bourbon
- 1:06:28Speaker 2: Street is. I mean, if you stay out late enough,
- 1:06:29Speaker 2: you'll see those street sweepers roll through, and they spray
- 1:06:33Speaker 2: this foam-looking stuff all over the streets as they blow
- 1:06:35Speaker 2: it through. And they do not care if you're standing there,
- 1:06:37Speaker 2: by the way. They do not care.
- 1:06:39Speaker 3: Foam? Yeah, yeah.
- 1:06:40Speaker 2: Some kind of weird, like, cleaning foam or whatever. Yeah,
- 1:06:43Speaker 2: it's kind of crazy. All right, Doug Lynn joins us
- 1:06:45Speaker 2: every single Thursday for Cobra Court, and we have started
- 1:06:48Speaker 2: a new little thing. Usually he would bring a case.
- 1:06:50Speaker 2: We would kind of go over and try to figure
- 1:06:51Speaker 2: out what would happen. But now we're doing You Be
- 1:06:53Speaker 2: the Jury. So me, Deb, Jack, and Ross will be
- 1:06:57Speaker 2: the jury in this case. And we are the aphaticus.
- 1:07:01Speaker 3: Thank you.
- 1:07:01Speaker 2: And we're trying to figure out exactly how much this
- 1:07:04Speaker 2: person should get. Is that the goal today?
- 1:07:05Speaker 14: No, this one today is what percentage of fault do
- 1:07:09Speaker 14: you put on the person that got injured here versus
- 1:07:12Speaker 14: the person that– We allege caused the injuries.
- 1:07:15Speaker 3: You got it.
- 1:07:15Speaker 13: All right.
- 1:07:15Speaker 2: So here's the case, guys.
- 1:07:16Speaker 3: You guys ready? Yep. All right.
- 1:07:18Speaker 2: Play along at home here. The sole question for you
- 1:07:20Speaker 2: is to determine the percentages of fault for the injuries
- 1:07:22Speaker 2: to Tiffany. She's 15 years old. Over the July 4th holiday,
- 1:07:26Speaker 2: Tiffany was visiting with her friend Olivia, also 15 years old.
- 1:07:29Speaker 2: And as they were walking in the neighborhood, their classmate
- 1:07:31Speaker 2: Joey came by on his electric bike. Joey asked the
- 1:07:34Speaker 2: girls if they wanted to go for a ride with him.
- 1:07:35Speaker 2: Olivia got on the electric bike in front of Joey.
- 1:07:38Speaker 2: and Tiffany got on the back of the bike behind Joey.
- 1:07:41Speaker 2: Joey was driving on the road, and as Joey turned
- 1:07:43Speaker 2: around a curve, the chain on the rear wheel of
- 1:07:46Speaker 2: the electric bike cut open Tiffany's foot. The moving chain
- 1:07:50Speaker 2: cut muscles and completely cut tendons in Tiffany's foot. Tiffany
- 1:07:55Speaker 2: required emergency surgery and is still on crutches and recovering.
- 1:07:59Speaker 2: Do you agree that Joey is 100% at fault for
- 1:08:02Speaker 2: Tiffany's injuries?
- 1:08:06Speaker 16: No.
- 1:08:07Speaker 2: Definitely not. I mean, he is not at 100% fault
- 1:08:11Speaker 2: for her injuries. As a matter of fact, well, he
- 1:08:14Speaker 2: asked them to get on. So he enticed them. They
- 1:08:18Speaker 2: did not have to get on the bike if they
- 1:08:19Speaker 2: didn't want.
- 1:08:20Speaker 3: They're 15. How old is Joey? Everybody's 15. Everyone's 15.
- 1:08:23Speaker 3: Everybody's 15.
- 1:08:23Speaker 14: I kind of knew what was going to happen going
- 1:08:25Speaker 14: in here, but that's why I think it's going to
- 1:08:27Speaker 14: be so much fun today.
- 1:08:28Speaker 19: Oh, really?
- 1:08:28Speaker 12: Yes.
- 1:08:29Speaker 3: This is similar to the one. We had one like
- 1:08:31Speaker 3: this with a sleepover. But it was a sleepover, and
- 1:08:34Speaker 3: they snuck out, and it was a crash. It wasn't
- 1:08:36Speaker 3: like a severe foot injury. She's only 15 years old.
- 1:08:39Speaker 3: If she cut muscle and tendons, this could actually change
- 1:08:42Speaker 3: the way she walks and things she's going to be.
- 1:08:44Speaker 2: Able to do for the remainder of her life.
- 1:08:45Speaker 6: Right.
- 1:08:46Speaker 3: But wait.
- 1:08:48Speaker 2: Tiffany's fine, right?
- 1:08:50Speaker 4: I mean, outside of her foot.
- 1:08:52Speaker 2: Tiffany's hurt. Tiffany's hurt.
- 1:08:53Speaker 3: Hold on.
- 1:08:54Speaker 2: What was the other one? Olivia's fine. My apologies.
- 1:08:56Speaker 3: Olivia was in front. Tiffany was in the back. Okay.
- 1:08:58Speaker 7: So isn't there. something about legal responsibility in the face
- 1:09:03Speaker 7: of the law when you're under a legal age to vote? Like,
- 1:09:06Speaker 7: wouldn't a 15-year-old not carry the same responsibility, therefore.
- 1:09:11Speaker 3: His parents. I was about to say, how about Joey's parents?
- 1:09:15Speaker 3: I think that's where a lot of this is going
- 1:09:17Speaker 3: to fall.
- 1:09:17Speaker 14: Yeah, that's where the insurance comes from, Joey's parents. But,
- 1:09:20Speaker 14: you know, the question is going to be Joey's parents'
- 1:09:22Speaker 14: insurance company is going to try to say Tiffany's at
- 1:09:25Speaker 14: fault for causing this.
- 1:09:26Speaker 2: Yeah, we're trying to figure out what percentage is who.
- 1:09:28Speaker 2: So how much fault relies to Joey and how much
- 1:09:31Speaker 2: fault is on Tiffany?
- 1:09:32Speaker 1: Exactly.
- 1:09:33Speaker 3: May I ask a question for the call? Absolutely. I
- 1:09:36Speaker 3: was wondering if this was a lime or a bird scooter. No,
- 1:09:40Speaker 3: this was Joey's e-bike. This was his. Joey's electric bike.
- 1:09:44Speaker 3: Personal belonging. Thank you very much. Back to the notes. Yeah, yeah.
- 1:09:47Speaker 2: And by the way, people are saying this sounds like
- 1:09:49Speaker 2: the other case. This is not the other case. It
- 1:09:51Speaker 2: is super similar because there were two girls who got
- 1:09:53Speaker 2: on the bike, but the other bike had a crash
- 1:09:55Speaker 2: that was a broken leg, and they snuck out of
- 1:09:58Speaker 2: the house to do this. This is just two people
- 1:10:00Speaker 2: walking down the street. Joey drives by, and they hop
- 1:10:02Speaker 2: on the bike. This is not the same case because
- 1:10:04Speaker 2: we didn't have the foot injury back then.
- 1:10:06Speaker 3: Correct. Okay.
- 1:10:07Speaker 4: So I'm going to go with it.
- 1:10:10Speaker 7: So it's not obviously 100% his fault because they did
- 1:10:14Speaker 7: make the choice of getting on the bike. But I'll
- 1:10:17Speaker 7: say at least 50% is Joey because without him riding
- 1:10:21Speaker 7: up and asking the girls if they wanted to get
- 1:10:24Speaker 7: on the bike, there would be no crash. And then
- 1:10:25Speaker 7: I would assign 25% to Tiffany. No, that would.
- 1:10:27Speaker 4: Have to be 75-25 because Olivia has no responsibility in this.
- 1:10:32Speaker 4: She wasn't injured.
- 1:10:32Speaker 21: Yeah, correct.
- 1:10:38Speaker 3: At least 75 on this cat. They didn't force themselves
- 1:10:43Speaker 3: on the bike. He has the responsibility. He's the one
- 1:10:47Speaker 3: riding it. He invited them on. He put them on,
- 1:10:50Speaker 3: and this happened because of him. At least 75% on him.
- 1:10:54Speaker 3: I don't know, buddy. Another question for the call? Absolutely.
- 1:10:58Speaker 3: Is this a two-seater? It's a one-seater. It's a big one-seater.
- 1:11:03Speaker 3: Back to the notes. Yeah, not designed for three people.
- 1:11:07Speaker 2: Out of curiosity, asking you, Jack, how can you just
- 1:11:11Speaker 2: not split this down the middle?
- 1:11:14Speaker 3: Because without Joey, this doesn't happen.
- 1:11:18Speaker 13: Okay.
- 1:11:18Speaker 5: Right? Right.
- 1:11:20Speaker 7: Yeah, without Joey and his e-bike and his invitation, this
- 1:11:23Speaker 7: does not occur. They continue walking down the street in
- 1:11:26Speaker 7: their neighborhood, finish their walk, and go home.
- 1:11:28Speaker 3: He misused the e-bike in a way it was not
- 1:11:30Speaker 3: designed for, putting two extra people on it.
- 1:11:32Speaker 2: Yeah, that's absolutely true.
- 1:11:34Speaker 3: He has a responsibility for damage caused by said evil.
- 1:11:37Speaker 2: That's absolutely true.
- 1:11:38Speaker 20: Objection!
- 1:11:39Speaker 3: But they also have a responsibility for their own actions,
- 1:11:42Speaker 3: do they not?
- 1:11:43Speaker 15: Exactly.
- 1:11:43Speaker 3: That's why I'm saying it's 75-25? Okay, I'd be more
- 1:11:47Speaker 3: like 85-15. This is what jurors do. You're in the
- 1:11:52Speaker 3: jury room right now. This is what jurors do. And
- 1:11:55Speaker 3: it feels good. Mr.
- 1:11:57Speaker 8: Bradshaw, wouldn't you say that she was also using this
- 1:12:00Speaker 8: vehicle improperly?
- 1:12:02Speaker 3: Your Honor, please redirect. I don't need to answer directly
- 1:12:06Speaker 3: to this person. Well, no, you're all in the jury room.
- 1:12:08Speaker 8: It seems like a corner that the rat can't get out.
- 1:12:13Speaker 8: What was the question again?
- 1:12:14Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah. Yeah, fellow juror.
- 1:12:16Speaker 8: I am remembering. If you are saying that Mr. Joey
- 1:12:23Speaker 8: here was not using this bike appropriately.
- 1:12:25Speaker 3: Correct. And I believe no one here is going to
- 1:12:27Speaker 3: argue against that. But what would you say about Miss Tiffany?
- 1:12:31Speaker 3: Is she using the bike properly? She is not.
- 1:12:34Speaker 2: It's not her bike. Let me ask you a question, then.
- 1:12:36Speaker 2: If Joey is, let's say Joey's 17, and he drives
- 1:12:40Speaker 2: by in his car, and they're walking down the sidewalk,
- 1:12:43Speaker 2: and he goes, hey, guys, you want a ride? And
- 1:12:45Speaker 2: they hop in, and he gets in a crash, whose
- 1:12:47Speaker 2: responsibility is it then?
- 1:12:48Speaker 3: Joey.
- 1:12:49Speaker 2: And his insurance. It's 100% Joey, right?
- 1:12:51Speaker 17: Yep.
- 1:12:51Speaker 2: Because Joey's responsible for that, responsible for the vehicle. It's
- 1:12:54Speaker 2: Joey's fault they got into the crash. It's Joey's fault.
- 1:12:57Speaker 2: Everything's Joey's fault in that situation. They are bystanders. They
- 1:13:00Speaker 2: just got a ride, which is also not out of
- 1:13:03Speaker 2: the realm of possibility.
- 1:13:04Speaker 3: So are you going up to 100% for Joey?
- 1:13:08Speaker 2: Maybe not 100%, dude, but it's not going to be
- 1:13:10Speaker 2: far from it. It's his responsibility to make sure that
- 1:13:14Speaker 2: the vehicle is operating safely. It'd be no different than
- 1:13:18Speaker 2: if I asked you to go for a ride in
- 1:13:19Speaker 2: my car knowing that my car has bad brakes and
- 1:13:21Speaker 2: we get into a crash. I put you in danger
- 1:13:25Speaker 2: based on something I knew could happen.
- 1:13:27Speaker 3: But I could also say the same thing as the
- 1:13:30Speaker 3: person sitting shotgun. How's that? Because this is a car.
- 1:13:33Speaker 3: Car accidents. It's right there in the word.
- 1:13:36Speaker 2: No, what I'm saying is if the car has a
- 1:13:38Speaker 2: problem that makes it unsafe, as if bad brakes, whatever
- 1:13:42Speaker 2: the case may be, I am inviting you into a
- 1:13:45Speaker 2: situation where your chances of getting injured are much greater
- 1:13:48Speaker 2: because of my irresponsibility by not telling you, hey, man,
- 1:13:50Speaker 2: I can give you a ride, but just a heads up.
- 1:13:52Speaker 2: My brake's been a little wacky lately, and I don't
- 1:13:54Speaker 2: know what's going on. But wouldn't that be in an
- 1:13:56Speaker 2: infinite abyss of an ocean? We could argue about tire
- 1:13:59Speaker 2: brands and different type of safety concerns. But we're on
- 1:14:01Speaker 2: a jury. That's what we're trying to do. We're trying
- 1:14:03Speaker 2: to kind of figure out exactly how this can be
- 1:14:05Speaker 2: boiled down into percentages between each person.
- 1:14:08Speaker 18: Right.
- 1:14:08Speaker 14: You four are in the jury room, and you're trying
- 1:14:10Speaker 14: to decide with a number to come out with.
- 1:14:12Speaker 3: I believe we are on very different sides of the
- 1:14:15Speaker 3: spectrum on this one, Mr.
- 1:14:16Speaker 5: Colbert.
- 1:14:16Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 1:14:18Speaker 2: So, I mean, is it 50-50 for you?
- 1:14:21Speaker 3: I've got bad news. Okay. I believe it's 80-20. On
- 1:14:26Speaker 3: whose favor? I'm working on that.
- 1:14:29Speaker 2: What were you going to say, Glenn?
- 1:14:33Speaker 14: Sounds like he might be easily persuaded by another strong
- 1:14:37Speaker 14: person on this jury panel.
- 1:14:38Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah.
- 1:14:39Speaker 3: I just believe that you should. I believe she's a
- 1:14:43Speaker 3: little on the hook here.
- 1:14:44Speaker 13: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 1:14:45Speaker 2: I believe she's a little bit. You know what?
- 1:14:48Speaker 3: I don't think she's on the hook at all. I'm
- 1:14:50Speaker 3: like 99 and 1 right now. 99 on Joey.
- 1:14:53Speaker 2: If Joey's skateboarding on the road and he says, hey,
- 1:14:56Speaker 2: you want to ride my skateboard? And she gets on
- 1:14:58Speaker 2: the skateboard and falls, that's on her because she said
- 1:15:00Speaker 2: yes to the skateboard and she maybe can't skateboard. That's
- 1:15:03Speaker 2: completely on her, right? How is this a different scenario?
- 1:15:05Speaker 2: She's using the device that he offered. Right, but he's
- 1:15:08Speaker 2: offering it. She still can say no. If she doesn't
- 1:15:10Speaker 2: know how to skateboard, she doesn't know how to skateboard.
- 1:15:12Speaker 2: If she gets on the skateboard not knowing how to
- 1:15:14Speaker 2: skateboard and falls, it's not Joey's fault.
- 1:15:16Speaker 3: He just offered her. Let's say Joey said, you want
- 1:15:19Speaker 3: to ride my e-bike? And he let them ride the
- 1:15:21Speaker 3: e-bike and she crashes and hurts herself.
- 1:15:25Speaker 2: Oh, that's a really good question. This is where I'm
- 1:15:27Speaker 2: coming from. That's where my point of view is.
- 1:15:31Speaker 3: I believe she needs to take some responsibility on this one.
- 1:15:34Speaker 3: Can we sit down, sir? Are we warming up on this?
- 1:15:36Speaker 2: I'm just, this is interesting.
- 1:15:38Speaker 3: I'm just enjoying it. He's using us to do his homework.
- 1:15:42Speaker 3: We're like a little case study for him. He wants
- 1:15:45Speaker 3: to know what jurors would do. I mean, there's no
- 1:15:48Speaker 3: right answer. How about this one? Somebody just sent in
- 1:15:50Speaker 3: a text. Very, very good point.
- 1:15:52Speaker 2: It has to be at least more than 50% because
- 1:15:56Speaker 2: Joey put them on a bike that is not designed
- 1:15:59Speaker 2: to have three people on them.
- 1:16:00Speaker 17: Correct.
- 1:16:01Speaker 2: He asked them to get onto a bike that isn't
- 1:16:04Speaker 2: designed that. No rear foot pegs. Nowhere for the person
- 1:16:07Speaker 2: to sit. The bike isn't really designed for three people.
- 1:16:09Speaker 7: Not only that, he obviously didn't maintain the bike well
- 1:16:12Speaker 7: enough or the back chain wouldn't have come off. Slacing
- 1:16:16Speaker 7: Tiffany's foot so bad.
- 1:16:17Speaker 3: Or maybe the chain didn't come off. I think her
- 1:16:19Speaker 3: foot got caught up in it. Tore it up. What
- 1:16:23Speaker 3: are you laughing at? Because you think that back pegs
- 1:16:25Speaker 3: are a legal standard back seat. No, but what I'm
- 1:16:28Speaker 3: saying is if you go, that would hold up. No,
- 1:16:30Speaker 3: it would. Oh, he's laughing at you. Street bikes have them.
- 1:16:33Speaker 3: They have them, but they aren't considered a seat. Yeah, no, no, no.
- 1:16:36Speaker 2: I think you missed my point completely. Like if you
- 1:16:38Speaker 2: go to a motorcycle of any sort, there are seats
- 1:16:40Speaker 2: that are designed for one person because I've owned motorcycles.
- 1:16:43Speaker 2: There are also seats designed to have a little bump
- 1:16:45Speaker 2: that goes out on the fender. And that is what they, well,
- 1:16:47Speaker 2: let me tell you what it is. It's called the
- 1:16:49Speaker 2: bitch bump. And I'm not being an ass.
- 1:16:51Speaker 3: It's just what it is.
- 1:16:52Speaker 2: Because apparently back in the day of bikers, when you
- 1:16:54Speaker 2: rode in the back of a male biker, you were
- 1:16:56Speaker 2: riding B. And there were foot pegs for you to
- 1:16:58Speaker 2: put your feet. So this bike isn't even designed to
- 1:17:01Speaker 2: do this. It's 100% Joey's fault.
- 1:17:03Speaker 3: Well, you said back pegs. Yeah, yeah, yeah. But where
- 1:17:07Speaker 3: I'm going with this, and I feel like this is
- 1:17:09Speaker 3: going to hurt. I learned a lot about myself. Good
- 1:17:12Speaker 3: old Faticus is on a roll here. I believe it
- 1:17:16Speaker 3: is 60-40, and I think it's on her. You think
- 1:17:19Speaker 3: 60-40 her. I think that's one of the worst takes
- 1:17:21Speaker 3: you've ever had. That's disbarment. I mean, that's literally disbar
- 1:17:27Speaker 3: you before you walk out of the courtroom kind of stuff.
- 1:17:28Speaker 3: I'm working on it. All right, let's get a final
- 1:17:30Speaker 3: thing here. Deb, what do you think?
- 1:17:31Speaker 7: I'm sticking with my 75 Joey, 25 Tiffany.
- 1:17:33Speaker 3: Same you? No, you know, screw that. 100% Joey. 100% Joey?
- 1:17:38Speaker 5: Yep.
- 1:17:38Speaker 2: What say you, Faticus? I'm going 60-40 her.
- 1:17:41Speaker 3: I'm sorry.
- 1:17:41Speaker 8: It's a hot take, but it just feels like you've
- 1:17:43Speaker 8: got to take care of yourself.
- 1:17:45Speaker 2: I got to tell you, I'm kind of with Deb here.
- 1:17:48Speaker 2: You do have to blame Tiffany for getting on a
- 1:17:50Speaker 2: motorcycle or a bike that she knows isn't designed for that.
- 1:17:53Speaker 2: She has to bear some responsibility for it. But I
- 1:17:55Speaker 2: think just him inviting her on it is a 75-25 scenario.
- 1:17:59Speaker 3: That's what I think. And if the four of you
- 1:18:01Speaker 3: had to come to some sort of agreement?
- 1:18:04Speaker 2: If we had to agree, what would be a number
- 1:18:05Speaker 2: that you could lean on? Because you're the only one
- 1:18:07Speaker 2: saying that she's in the majority of the fault.
- 1:18:09Speaker 3: Well, I like this position now. Because now I have leverage. Well,
- 1:18:13Speaker 3: guess what? It's a hung jury.
- 1:18:14Speaker 4: You know, we just throw you out the window.
- 1:18:16Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 1:18:16Speaker 3: We're all saying, like, we're all basically agreeing on 75-25. That's,
- 1:18:19Speaker 3: you know. yeah so are you allowed to assault a
- 1:18:24Speaker 3: juror has jack come down to 75 25 well no
- 1:18:27Speaker 3: no i have not he hasn't okay he's still on
- 1:18:30Speaker 3: 99 one.
- 1:18:31Speaker 2: But would you ever possibly negotiate with deb and i
- 1:18:34Speaker 2: to get to that point yeah i got things to
- 1:18:36Speaker 2: do i'd want to get out of here and you
- 1:18:38Speaker 2: would not negotiate well i'm working on i gotta look
- 1:18:40Speaker 2: back at my.
- 1:18:41Speaker 3: Notes well can i tell you we're on a clock Dom.
- 1:18:45Speaker 4: Every jury has a pain in the ass, right?
- 1:18:47Speaker 17: Oh, yeah, yeah.
- 1:18:47Speaker 7: I'll give you 60-40 the other way. I mean, it's... Yeah,
- 1:18:55Speaker 7: I'm not assigning 40% responsibility.
- 1:18:57Speaker 2: Okay, let's just leave it this way because we're short
- 1:18:59Speaker 2: on time.
- 1:18:59Speaker 3: I got it.
- 1:19:00Speaker 2: I would literally elbow that guy in the face so
- 1:19:01Speaker 2: he couldn't talk.
- 1:19:02Speaker 10: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 1:19:03Speaker 2: And then the three of us would make a logical
- 1:19:05Speaker 2: decision of 75-25.
- 1:19:06Speaker 3: And I'd distract the other jurors so they didn't witness it. And,
- 1:19:11Speaker 3: of course, my position is Joey's 100% at fault.
- 1:19:13Speaker 8: Yes!
- 1:19:14Speaker 3: You are? That's my position. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 1:19:16Speaker 14: I mean, because it's his bike. He shouldn't have invited
- 1:19:19Speaker 14: him on it. He knew better than to invite him
- 1:19:20Speaker 14: on it. They're not skilled on that bike.
- 1:19:22Speaker 3: He is.
- 1:19:23Speaker 14: And in fact, the information we have is his dad
- 1:19:25Speaker 14: has already told him, you don't put other people on
- 1:19:27Speaker 14: a bike.
- 1:19:28Speaker 2: Before this even happened.
- 1:19:30Speaker 3: Oh, really? Because he knew that. So he knew it's
- 1:19:33Speaker 3: a one-person bike, and he's just trying.
- 1:19:35Speaker 4: To impress the girls.
- 1:19:37Speaker 3: Yeah, and it turned out very, very bad.
- 1:19:39Speaker 2: So I got to tell you, buddy, that sounds like
- 1:19:41Speaker 2: some pretty major cash surgery there. I mean, when you
- 1:19:44Speaker 2: get into tendon and muscle tears and stuff like that,
- 1:19:46Speaker 2: that's real. And by the way, the surgery is just
- 1:19:49Speaker 2: one part of it. The rehab for injuries like that
- 1:19:51Speaker 2: is ridiculous, right? Yeah, it's two months now and still
- 1:19:54Speaker 2: on crutches. And yeah, it's a bad injury.
- 1:19:58Speaker 3: Wow.
- 1:19:58Speaker 4: Like you said, tendons, right? Those take a really long
- 1:20:01Speaker 4: time to heal.
- 1:20:02Speaker 2: And I don't know how the insurance goes. We have
- 1:20:04Speaker 2: about a minute and a half or so. But I mean,
- 1:20:06Speaker 2: she's 15 years old, dude. If she was like a
- 1:20:08Speaker 2: cheerleader or an athlete or had those type of aspirations
- 1:20:11Speaker 2: going into high school, this is a great hindrance to that.
- 1:20:14Speaker 3: Yep, absolutely right. Wow.
- 1:20:16Speaker 2: So on top of the medical charges... that he'll have
- 1:20:20Speaker 2: to pay. How do you go after money for what
- 1:20:23Speaker 2: we just said? How does that happen if there are
- 1:20:25Speaker 2: caps with the insurance and stuff, or does that come
- 1:20:27Speaker 2: into play?
- 1:20:27Speaker 14: Well, in a sense, there's a cap with the insurance
- 1:20:31Speaker 14: because we know how much insurance there is. I'm not
- 1:20:33Speaker 14: going to get into that today, but there's a lot
- 1:20:34Speaker 14: of insurance to pay for the injuries, probably not enough
- 1:20:37Speaker 14: for a lifetime worth of injuries. But the issue is
- 1:20:40Speaker 14: if they pay that money, if they offer that money,
- 1:20:42Speaker 14: then it's almost impossible to get more than what's out there.
- 1:20:46Speaker 14: What she's entitled to is not only the economic losses,
- 1:20:49Speaker 14: which would be the unpaid medical bills. Fortunately, there's health
- 1:20:51Speaker 14: insurance that's going to cover most of the medical bills.
- 1:20:54Speaker 14: She'll have to pay some of that back. And then,
- 1:20:57Speaker 14: of course, there's the pain and suffering she's gone through,
- 1:21:00Speaker 14: the loss of enjoyment of life she's gone through and
- 1:21:03Speaker 14: is going to go through in the future. The mental
- 1:21:05Speaker 14: anguish she's got, worried about this all the time. All
- 1:21:07Speaker 14: those things. And does that manifest itself into a civil case?
- 1:21:10Speaker 2: Is that what it is?
- 1:21:11Speaker 3: This is a civil case.
- 1:21:12Speaker 15: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 1:21:13Speaker 3: This is what we ask for a fair compensation for. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 1:21:17Speaker 3: I mean, this is a bad, bad injury.
- 1:21:19Speaker 2: So let me ask you real quick. I know Jack's
- 1:21:20Speaker 2: telling me we've got to go and we do.
- 1:21:21Speaker 3: All right.
- 1:21:22Speaker 7: So.
- 1:21:23Speaker 2: Is that a separate entity than the insurance settlement, the
- 1:21:26Speaker 2: civil case? In other words, do you settle the insurance?
- 1:21:29Speaker 2: That's the money you get from insurance for the injuries
- 1:21:31Speaker 2: and max that out. Then after that, you go civilly
- 1:21:34Speaker 2: or do you get one or the other?
- 1:21:35Speaker 14: No, you get what happens is once you settle a case,
- 1:21:38Speaker 14: there's no civil case to pursue.
- 1:21:39Speaker 2: Right, that's it.
- 1:21:39Speaker 14: If you don't get a settlement, then you pursue a
- 1:21:41Speaker 14: civil case and it could settle during the civil case
- 1:21:43Speaker 14: that's being filed.
- 1:21:44Speaker 13: Wow.
- 1:21:45Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 1:21:45Speaker 3: Wow. Wow, man. Juicy. Yeah, this is a... I thought
- 1:21:51Speaker 3: it would be an interesting case to bring in.
- 1:21:52Speaker 2: When does this go to trial?
- 1:21:55Speaker 3: Well, it's just happened. Oh, really?
- 1:21:57Speaker 14: So we'll try to get the case settled. We'll get
- 1:21:59Speaker 14: the insurance company all the information they need to evaluate it.
- 1:22:01Speaker 14: We'll tell them we want them to pay all the
- 1:22:03Speaker 14: policy limits that are out there. If they decline, then
- 1:22:06Speaker 14: we file a lawsuit and we roll on.
- 1:22:08Speaker 3: Very nice. Always good seeing you, buddy.
- 1:22:09Speaker 5: Good luck.
- 1:22:09Speaker 1: Yay!
- 1:22:09Speaker 5: Yay!
- 1:22:11Speaker 3: That's KlausmanLaw, K-L-A-U-S-M-A-N-Law.com.
- 1:22:15Speaker 2: Office is right there in Winter Park. Again, it's 407-917-1718. Car, crash,
- 1:22:20Speaker 2: call Klausman.
- 1:22:21Speaker 3: Good seeing you, buddy.
- 1:22:21Speaker 2: E-bike, same thing. There's a lot of E-bike injuries. Yeah,
- 1:22:25Speaker 2: I'll tell those guys when you get out of here
- 1:22:26Speaker 2: what's going on. All right, we'll see you later.
- 1:22:29Speaker 3: What up, Cobra Crew?
- 1:22:31Speaker 4: It's Derek.
- 1:22:33Speaker 17: Yeah, man, listening to this split plate feat.
- 1:22:37Speaker 3: It just has a horrible name. It's hard to say.
- 1:22:39Speaker 10: But, uh.
- 1:22:41Speaker 17: That's stupid because you could just order that to go
- 1:22:45Speaker 17: and you could share that.
- 1:22:46Speaker 3: To three, four people if you wanted to.
- 1:22:49Speaker 17: You'd go home and make that into two meals. And
- 1:22:52Speaker 17: guess what?
- 1:22:52Speaker 3: Now, no tip.
- 1:22:54Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 1:22:54Speaker 20: No cocktails.
- 1:22:56Speaker 17: No chance of being offered dessert and being able to
- 1:22:58Speaker 17: be upsold.
- 1:23:00Speaker 3: That's what I would do.
- 1:23:01Speaker 22: A little knowledge from a gentleman who has been in
- 1:23:04Speaker 22: the restaurant business for 40 years. Most of the time,
- 1:23:09Speaker 22: if they're doing a... plate share charge they give you
- 1:23:16Speaker 22: double the sides and share the entree that's what the
- 1:23:20Speaker 22: charge covers.
- 1:23:22Speaker 3: All right i mean look You'd have to prove that.
- 1:23:30Speaker 3: I think you'd have to prove that to a lot
- 1:23:31Speaker 3: of people. You're going to.
- 1:23:33Speaker 2: Need to weigh that for me and bring me the receipts, please.
- 1:23:35Speaker 2: Let me see the regular way you do it. All right, 407-916-1041.
- 1:23:39Speaker 2: Text 77031. Welcome back.
- 1:23:41Speaker 3: I'm Jim.
- 1:23:41Speaker 2: There's Deb. Hello.
- 1:23:42Speaker 22: Jackson.
- 1:23:43Speaker 2: And Ross as well. Feeling comfy. Yeah, they got a
- 1:23:47Speaker 2: little action there, the split plate fee. And I agree,
- 1:23:49Speaker 2: that's hard to say. Do you guys remember, Jack? I
- 1:23:51Speaker 2: think you probably remember this. I don't know, Deb, if
- 1:23:53Speaker 2: you would or not. You remember the whole drama that
- 1:23:54Speaker 2: went on with the salad thing over at Hillstone a
- 1:23:57Speaker 2: few years back? It was some kind of weird thing.
- 1:24:01Speaker 2: They wanted to get a salad to go because there
- 1:24:02Speaker 2: was a deal going on, and they're like, no, we're
- 1:24:04Speaker 2: not doing that.
- 1:24:05Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 1:24:05Speaker 2: And it was like a– I can't remember exactly what
- 1:24:08Speaker 2: the situation was, but it's similar to this. The restaurant
- 1:24:11Speaker 2: was completely being illogical because the people who were ordering
- 1:24:15Speaker 2: the salad or doing the deal, I mean, they had–
- 1:24:17Speaker 2: Exactly the point. And the restaurant's like, no, we're not
- 1:24:19Speaker 2: doing that because I don't know if they want to
- 1:24:21Speaker 2: set a precedent where everybody could come in.
- 1:24:23Speaker 3: And do that.
- 1:24:24Speaker 2: I can't remember the deal exactly.
- 1:24:25Speaker 8: I don't want to say anything wrong, but I'm pretty
- 1:24:27Speaker 8: sure it was like a food control thing. Like, yo,
- 1:24:31Speaker 8: we don't put our salads into go boxes because it, it,
- 1:24:34Speaker 8: it's not, we want it to stay at a certain standard.
- 1:24:38Speaker 8: And this is the way that we present our salad.
- 1:24:41Speaker 7: Yeah.
- 1:24:41Speaker 3: But that's not really there.
- 1:24:42Speaker 2: That's not their thing though.
- 1:24:43Speaker 3: Right?
- 1:24:43Speaker 2: I mean, that, that's not really up to them. Well,
- 1:24:46Speaker 2: I mean, because I mean, I'm coming in to order food.
- 1:24:48Speaker 2: If I say, hey, look, I want to, you know,
- 1:24:49Speaker 2: I want this dessert. Are they going to tell me, hey, look,
- 1:24:52Speaker 2: you know, I'd love to do that, but we can
- 1:24:53Speaker 2: only eat this dessert in the restaurant. That's not really
- 1:24:56Speaker 2: their business.
- 1:24:57Speaker 14: It is.
- 1:24:58Speaker 3: How is that their business? No, they have a right
- 1:25:01Speaker 3: to do that. It's not good business, but they.
- 1:25:04Speaker 2: Have a right to tell me that I can't buy
- 1:25:06Speaker 2: something on their menu and then take it home with me.
- 1:25:08Speaker 7: Yes.
- 1:25:10Speaker 2: That's a new one to me.
- 1:25:12Speaker 3: Think about it.
- 1:25:13Speaker 8: I mean, it's a right, and like he said, it's
- 1:25:15Speaker 8: not good business.
- 1:25:15Speaker 3: I don't think it's good. I don't think it's a
- 1:25:17Speaker 3: good way of doing business, but they don't have to
- 1:25:20Speaker 3: give you, if you ate it there and then wanted
- 1:25:22Speaker 3: to take it home, they don't have to give you
- 1:25:24Speaker 3: a to-go container.
- 1:25:25Speaker 7: Think of the family with the Joey whatever pizza in
- 1:25:29Speaker 7: Jersey where the family brought the birthday cake into the restaurant.
- 1:25:32Speaker 7: It required nothing more of the restaurant to allow them
- 1:25:35Speaker 7: to have their five-year-old's birthday party there.
- 1:25:38Speaker 3: Yeah, but they don't know what the cake is from.
- 1:25:39Speaker 7: But that restaurant stood on the fact that we don't
- 1:25:42Speaker 7: allow outside food to come in and ended up getting
- 1:25:44Speaker 7: national backlash over the fact that they wouldn't let a
- 1:25:47Speaker 7: little girl celebrate her fifth birthday party at the restaurant.
- 1:25:50Speaker 4: It was their right to.
- 1:25:52Speaker 7: Deny food from the outside that they didn't know or
- 1:25:55Speaker 7: make be served in their restaurant.
- 1:25:56Speaker 3: But maybe not good business.
- 1:26:00Speaker 2: That is wild. What a wild take that is.
- 1:26:02Speaker 4: It's 2026, Jimmy.
- 1:26:04Speaker 7: This should be the last of things to surprise you.
- 1:26:07Speaker 3: What a wild take that is.
- 1:26:08Speaker 2: I mean, we're begging for people to come in, but
- 1:26:10Speaker 2: when you come in, hey, look, I love the fact
- 1:26:12Speaker 2: that you're here, but unfortunately, we're not going to let
- 1:26:14Speaker 2: you order that dish and take it home because we
- 1:26:16Speaker 2: don't do that.
- 1:26:17Speaker 3: But certain restaurants have a certain idea of how their
- 1:26:26Speaker 3: food is, and they have a certain standard they think
- 1:26:29Speaker 3: they're holding up by not allowing food that doesn't travel well.
- 1:26:33Speaker 3: So in other words, they don't offer takeout. Yeah, and
- 1:26:36Speaker 3: I don't know if that's the case here.
- 1:26:38Speaker 2: I'm being facetious because, I mean, do you know of
- 1:26:41Speaker 2: a restaurant that doesn't offer takeout? I mean, could you
- 1:26:44Speaker 2: imagine if you called a restaurant and you said, hey, look,
- 1:26:46Speaker 2: I want to get this, this, this, this, and I'll
- 1:26:48Speaker 2: come pick it up. And they're like, no, we don't
- 1:26:49Speaker 2: do that.
- 1:26:50Speaker 3: We can't.
- 1:26:50Speaker 2: We can't make that for you because we don't allow
- 1:26:52Speaker 2: that to be taken out. Everything else you can take.
- 1:26:55Speaker 3: Not that one, though.
- 1:26:56Speaker 2: That is alien to me, dude.
- 1:26:59Speaker 3: That is like bananas.
- 1:27:00Speaker 8: And it should be, and that's why it made such
- 1:27:02Speaker 8: a huge, like, you guys are not going to believe
- 1:27:04Speaker 8: what happened to me in that moment. And then I'm
- 1:27:07Speaker 8: pretty sure they, I think they changed the policy. It
- 1:27:10Speaker 8: doesn't happen anymore. Yeah, I mean, we haven't heard about
- 1:27:13Speaker 8: it anymore. I would think there's still a restaurant that goes,
- 1:27:16Speaker 8: I mean, it's going to make any server squirm putting
- 1:27:21Speaker 8: a filet in a.
- 1:27:23Speaker 2: styrofoam container, as it should. Yeah, because they shouldn't be
- 1:27:26Speaker 2: using styrofoam.
- 1:27:27Speaker 3: Good point.
- 1:27:28Speaker 2: But that just happened. Ocean Prime just brought us fillets
- 1:27:31Speaker 2: not even a week and a half ago, and they
- 1:27:33Speaker 2: were absolutely perfect when traveled.
- 1:27:37Speaker 3: That's a 25-minute drive. That's one of their prime products.
- 1:27:40Speaker 3: It doesn't matter.
- 1:27:40Speaker 2: I mean, you could live 10 minutes away from the home,
- 1:27:42Speaker 2: and they wouldn't do the same thing. If I lived
- 1:27:43Speaker 2: behind the restaurant, they wouldn't let me take that restaurant,
- 1:27:45Speaker 2: that salad home. I mean, I just never heard anything
- 1:27:48Speaker 2: like that. I never heard of a restaurant that would
- 1:27:49Speaker 2: offer takeout as a service and then tell you what
- 1:27:52Speaker 2: you can or can't take out. Now, look, I can
- 1:27:54Speaker 2: see this. I can say, hey, look, we will do
- 1:27:56Speaker 2: this for you, but you need to know, you know,
- 1:27:58Speaker 2: we really prefer you eat this product in-house because that's
- 1:28:01Speaker 2: when it's absolutely the best. If you do order this takeout,
- 1:28:05Speaker 2: you know, you're not going to get the premium experience.
- 1:28:08Speaker 2: In other words, I don't want to hear it. If
- 1:28:10Speaker 2: you get this and it doesn't turn out the way
- 1:28:11Speaker 2: you want.
- 1:28:11Speaker 3: Texas says that they had a restaurant that would not
- 1:28:14Speaker 3: let him take oysters as a takeout. That's way different.
- 1:28:18Speaker 3: That is way different. I was not expecting that from you.
- 1:28:22Speaker 3: That is way different, dude. Like right off rip. That
- 1:28:26Speaker 3: is so different. What right do they have? They sell them.
- 1:28:29Speaker 3: You can eat them there. Why can't you take them
- 1:28:30Speaker 3: with you? That's a dangerous thing. Also, I'm not going
- 1:28:32Speaker 3: to sell you raw scallops and have you sit them
- 1:28:34Speaker 3: on your dashboard. Get the blink out of here, dude.
- 1:28:37Speaker 3: You're driving me crazy.
- 1:28:39Speaker 7: Apparently, it's very common for a restaurant to do that,
- 1:28:42Speaker 7: especially with seafood. And one of the bigger name restaurants
- 1:28:45Speaker 7: apparently does not do takeout.
- 1:28:47Speaker 17: Who's that?
- 1:28:48Speaker 4: Look at the text.
- 1:28:51Speaker 3: I've been pretty... I do, by the way, because I've
- 1:28:53Speaker 3: gotten dessert from them. I've been told.
- 1:28:56Speaker 8: Pretty militantly before when I get fish and chips wherever
- 1:29:00Speaker 8: I go, they're like, you sure you want that to go?
- 1:29:03Speaker 2: Now, again, understood. Fried food doesn't travel well. The restaurant's
- 1:29:08Speaker 2: doing you a solid.
- 1:29:09Speaker 17: Hey, look.
- 1:29:10Speaker 2: Just a heads up, when you order this dish to go,
- 1:29:13Speaker 2: you're not going to have the premium experience as if
- 1:29:15Speaker 2: you ate it here. We're going to sell it to you,
- 1:29:17Speaker 2: but this doesn't travel well. French fries do not travel well.
- 1:29:21Speaker 2: Oysters don't travel well.
- 1:29:22Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah.
- 1:29:23Speaker 3: They don't live well.
- 1:29:26Speaker 8: I just love your absolute, this is a bulletproof take,
- 1:29:29Speaker 8: except oysters.
- 1:29:31Speaker 2: I didn't say it was a bulletproof take. I'm just
- 1:29:33Speaker 2: simply saying if the manager looks at me and says, look, man,
- 1:29:36Speaker 2: I mean, if you take this home, it's not going
- 1:29:38Speaker 2: to be the premium experience. But to not sell them
- 1:29:41Speaker 2: the product is a bit wild. Oysters are just dangerous, dude,
- 1:29:44Speaker 2: if they get above a certain temperature. And selling somebody
- 1:29:46Speaker 2: oysters and them not maybe knowing that if you let
- 1:29:49Speaker 2: them get to room temperature, it's going to be pretty
- 1:29:50Speaker 2: gnarly for you in a while. Yeah, I mean, you
- 1:29:53Speaker 2: can communicate that, but would you– Would you be okay
- 1:29:56Speaker 2: with a restaurant telling you no oysters to go? I mean,
- 1:30:02Speaker 2: that's a great question, but I would probably be okay
- 1:30:06Speaker 2: with that. I know that sounds hypocritical, but it's not
- 1:30:09Speaker 2: because it's a food safety issue. I also wouldn't cook
- 1:30:14Speaker 2: your chicken medium rare and say, hey, if you just
- 1:30:16Speaker 2: put this in the car, it'll probably cook all the
- 1:30:18Speaker 2: way through as it sits.
- 1:30:19Speaker 3: I mean, you know what I'm saying? Am I making
- 1:30:22Speaker 3: any points at all?
- 1:30:23Speaker 7: No.
- 1:30:24Speaker 2: I'm not making it to me.
- 1:30:25Speaker 11: I'm just talking because I've got time to spend.
- 1:30:28Speaker 2: Somebody says, Jimmy, why are you telling people how to
- 1:30:33Speaker 2: run their business? I'm not telling you how to run
- 1:30:34Speaker 2: your business. I'm with Jack. I do not think that's
- 1:30:38Speaker 2: a good idea. It's kind of wild. I've never heard
- 1:30:39Speaker 2: of a company or a restaurant that offers takeout but
- 1:30:41Speaker 2: tells you you can't take a certain thing out.
- 1:30:44Speaker 3: Texter says there's an authentic Italian joint in St. Cloud
- 1:30:47Speaker 3: has no takeout for 20 plus years. Wow, really? Incredible.
- 1:30:51Speaker 2: I mean, I guess if that's your policy up front,
- 1:30:52Speaker 2: it's your policy up front. But I don't know that
- 1:30:54Speaker 2: that's that restaurant's policy up front for all products. Yeah,
- 1:30:58Speaker 2: it would be wild to be like, can I get
- 1:31:00Speaker 2: a box?
- 1:31:00Speaker 3: And they go, no. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 1:31:02Speaker 5: No, no, no.
- 1:31:03Speaker 3: No, we don't do that. We don't believe in it.
- 1:31:04Speaker 2: And for leftovers, that's even crazier. Like, I mean, Jack
- 1:31:07Speaker 2: was saying a second ago, like if they just said, hey,
- 1:31:09Speaker 2: you can't take the rest of that home. I'm like, oh,
- 1:31:11Speaker 2: the hell I can. I paid for it, dude. Yeah,
- 1:31:13Speaker 2: you don't have to give me a box, but I'm
- 1:31:14Speaker 2: taking it with me. I'm going to dump it in
- 1:31:16Speaker 2: her purse.
- 1:31:17Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 1:31:17Speaker 3: I'm going to hold it.
- 1:31:18Speaker 7: Exactly.
- 1:31:19Speaker 4: I'm going to put it in my pocket.
- 1:31:20Speaker 6: 407-916-1041.
- 1:31:20Speaker 3: Honey, grab the scalloped potatoes. Text us.
- 1:31:23Speaker 4: That's a good choice.
- 1:31:25Speaker 2: All those jalapeno ones from Ocean Prime.
- 1:31:27Speaker 3: They were so good. Honey, leave the oysters. Just the
- 1:31:31Speaker 3: right amount flavor of the jalapeno. Stop, stop, stop.
- 1:31:34Speaker 2: Put on the best ever gone. You're buying.
- 1:31:37Speaker 3: By the way. Oh, no, because then it'll be sparkling water.
- 1:31:41Speaker 3: We'll be taking it out of our pockets.
- 1:31:43Speaker 21: Sparkling?
- 1:31:43Speaker 3: Uh-uh, you're getting tapped. Still hose.
- 1:31:53Speaker 2: I would love a fancy restaurant to do that just
- 1:31:54Speaker 2: for fun. If the waiter had jokes, I'd go, would
- 1:31:58Speaker 2: you like still, sparkling, or hose?
- 1:32:02Speaker 3: Sparkling. This is also a fresh, beautiful, right off the countertop.
- 1:32:06Speaker 3: This is a 1988 hose. And that's when it ruled supreme.
- 1:32:12Speaker 2: Like, everybody in our audience right now, I bet money,
- 1:32:15Speaker 2: they have that taste and smell of hose water just
- 1:32:19Speaker 2: absolutely drilled into their taste buds.
- 1:32:22Speaker 3: Is hose water good for me? Well, it's better than
- 1:32:25Speaker 3: the COVID vaccine.
- 1:32:27Speaker 17: I don't know.
- 1:32:27Speaker 2: Have you ever run water through hot butylenes?
- 1:32:30Speaker 4: Yum.
- 1:32:30Speaker 3: And then had a sip?
- 1:32:31Speaker 2: Yeah, probably not good. Imagine a vaccine for everything. All right, 407-916-1041,
- 1:32:37Speaker 2: text us at 77031. Read a kind of interesting story
- 1:32:40Speaker 2: today about a couple who, a woman actually, whose job
- 1:32:44Speaker 2: relocated her to Switzerland. Her husband then followed, and then
- 1:32:47Speaker 2: they stay there and raise their family. And it's just
- 1:32:50Speaker 2: this cultural difference thing I found kind of interesting.
- 1:32:53Speaker 3: I'll talk to you guys about it when we get back.
- 1:32:56Speaker 25: I don't remember the name of it, and it's been
- 1:32:58Speaker 25: gone for a couple of years now, but there was
- 1:33:00Speaker 25: this restaurant in like an old town, locomotive cart thing
- 1:33:06Speaker 25: that they did it was in Coco on 520 and
- 1:33:10Speaker 25: they used to have a thing where you couldn't do
- 1:33:12Speaker 25: any doggy bags at all no matter what it was
- 1:33:15Speaker 25: you paid and you had to eat it in the
- 1:33:17Speaker 25: restaurant or you had to basically throw it away before
- 1:33:22Speaker 25: you left and they would not let you leave with anything.
- 1:33:26Speaker 3: Wow man this is crazy crazy I'm not going to
- 1:33:31Speaker 3: let people take food to go.
- 1:33:32Speaker 17: You know what I would do? I would go, okay, fine.
- 1:33:36Speaker 17: Give me a seat for one, please. I'm here to sit.
- 1:33:39Speaker 17: Once you get set. cool, get weighted on, just ordering water,
- 1:33:43Speaker 17: no drink please, no thank you. Then I'm getting my
- 1:33:46Speaker 17: food order and I'm going to take one bite and go,
- 1:33:48Speaker 17: oh man, I'm so full. Can I get a box
- 1:33:50Speaker 17: to go please? And then I'm out that joint.
- 1:33:52Speaker 13: See ya.
- 1:33:52Speaker 3: I'm out that joint.
- 1:33:54Speaker 18: Well guys, I just drove by the Bob Evans on
- 1:33:57Speaker 18: 436 and their sign right there says 2-5 Early Bird.
- 1:34:02Speaker 3: Dine in.
- 1:34:03Speaker 18: So dine in only at the Bob Evans because they
- 1:34:06Speaker 18: don't want you taking the Early Bird home to share it.
- 1:34:10Speaker 24: Right?
- 1:34:10Speaker 3: Am I right? Am I right? Am I right? You
- 1:34:14Speaker 3: know what?
- 1:34:14Speaker 2: We never mention Bob Evans when we talk about breakfast joints.
- 1:34:17Speaker 3: I got to tell you, dude. Yeah? Bob Evans got
- 1:34:19Speaker 3: one thing on their menu, if I remember right, was
- 1:34:21Speaker 3: damn good.
- 1:34:23Speaker 2: Just one?
- 1:34:24Speaker 3: Well, I mean, yeah, yeah, yeah. Because, I mean, to me,
- 1:34:26Speaker 3: other restaurants, other breakfast, excuse me, other breakfast places. Bob Evans? No, no,
- 1:34:32Speaker 3: hold on a second.
- 1:34:33Speaker 2: Not the restaurant you want. But the restaurant you need.
- 1:34:39Speaker 2: If I remember right, they had pretty good biscuits and
- 1:34:41Speaker 2: gravy at Bob Evans. I had biscuits and gravy today.
- 1:34:44Speaker 2: Did you really?
- 1:34:45Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 1:34:45Speaker 13: What?
- 1:34:48Speaker 3: It was subpar.
- 1:34:49Speaker 2: And the best pancakes. And this is going to be
- 1:34:51Speaker 2: a shocker to you. I mean, there are some really
- 1:34:53Speaker 2: good places that have good pancakes. But I've got to
- 1:34:54Speaker 2: tell you, man, back in the day, and I don't
- 1:34:56Speaker 2: know if it's the same way anymore, but, man, Perkins,
- 1:34:59Speaker 2: their pancakes were damn good. They were a little elastic.
- 1:35:02Speaker 2: They weren't, like, cakey.
- 1:35:03Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah.
- 1:35:04Speaker 2: But it's just the way that they held the butter
- 1:35:06Speaker 2: and syrup. They have a thing called the Tremendous 12.
- 1:35:10Speaker 2: And it's like 12 items on one breakfast plate. And,
- 1:35:12Speaker 2: you know, three links of sausages is three items. Just
- 1:35:15Speaker 2: give me an idea.
- 1:35:16Speaker 3: You got a text from Green saying Bob Evans has
- 1:35:18Speaker 3: the best biscuits and gravy. Yeah, yeah.
- 1:35:19Speaker 2: Damn good biscuits and gravy at Bob Evans. And they
- 1:35:22Speaker 2: had a good pork chop there as well. Like their
- 1:35:23Speaker 2: pork chop breakfast was good too.
- 1:35:25Speaker 3: Another text that says best French dressing they've ever had
- 1:35:28Speaker 3: at Bob Evans. Wow, really?
- 1:35:29Speaker 22: Yeah.
- 1:35:30Speaker 8: Can I say something about... Tell me if I'm crazy
- 1:35:32Speaker 8: about this sausage gravy take.
- 1:35:33Speaker 2: You're crazy about this sausage gravy take.
- 1:35:35Speaker 8: If it's really white, it's going to be a 4
- 1:35:38Speaker 8: out of 10. If it's got gray and it's like
- 1:35:42Speaker 8: this weird... If the sausage gravy has almost like a
- 1:35:45Speaker 8: tint of brown... Yeah, it's got to have a little
- 1:35:48Speaker 8: bit of that in there.
- 1:35:48Speaker 3: If it looks like it's turning... Yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 1:35:52Speaker 2: Are you a sausage.
- 1:35:54Speaker 4: Not as much, but Chris, yeah.
- 1:35:56Speaker 3: Oh, yeah, yeah.
- 1:35:56Speaker 4: That's a big Southern breakfast.
- 1:35:58Speaker 2: And it's dependent on the sausage that you use as well,
- 1:36:01Speaker 2: like how much fat it has in it. And that
- 1:36:03Speaker 2: also determines the color of the flour once you add
- 1:36:05Speaker 2: the milk.
- 1:36:06Speaker 3: David, chat us a text. That train car on 520,
- 1:36:09Speaker 3: that's no longer there. It was called Mom's Bar and
- 1:36:12Speaker 3: Dad's Restaurant. Oh, there you go.
- 1:36:15Speaker 4: It says so much.
- 1:36:16Speaker 3: No takeout. It sticks out. They're out of business. Well,
- 1:36:19Speaker 3: they did.
- 1:36:19Speaker 2: Well, somebody said, there are a number of people, by
- 1:36:21Speaker 2: the way, I must be the crazy one here, which
- 1:36:23Speaker 2: is relatively normal, but there's a number of people who
- 1:36:26Speaker 2: texted and said, there are places out there that won't
- 1:36:28Speaker 2: even let you take leftovers home. That is, like, that's
- 1:36:32Speaker 2: an affront. I mean, that's an affront. I don't even
- 1:36:36Speaker 2: know how I would respond to that. Like, if I
- 1:36:38Speaker 2: went into a place and ordered a steak and only ate, like, maybe,
- 1:36:40Speaker 2: let's say I had a big appetizer and a big salad,
- 1:36:42Speaker 2: and it just kind of filled me up, and I
- 1:36:44Speaker 2: ate maybe half the steak, and I was like, yeah,
- 1:36:46Speaker 2: we just bring me a box, and they're like, we
- 1:36:47Speaker 2: don't do that. I'm like, nah, you're doing it. Or
- 1:36:49Speaker 2: I'm just going to palm this thing and walk out.
- 1:36:51Speaker 2: I'm going to tell everybody I'm walking out with this
- 1:36:52Speaker 2: thing in my hand like it's a grenade.
- 1:36:54Speaker 3: You're holding out your shirt bottom because it's holding all
- 1:36:57Speaker 3: your food. At that point, you've got to make a point.
- 1:36:59Speaker 3: Being passive aggressive as you walk to the door going,
- 1:37:02Speaker 3: just make sure you finish your food. Exactly. Is this place?
- 1:37:07Speaker 3: Or I brought my own Tupperware.
- 1:37:09Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 1:37:10Speaker 3: Yes, I saw that one, too, right? And people do
- 1:37:12Speaker 3: that after our gig coming up at Margaritaville. Sunset Walk. Yeah, yeah,
- 1:37:14Speaker 3: for sure.
- 1:37:15Speaker 2: Speaking of which, 14 Sketches is this Saturday night. Get
- 1:37:17Speaker 2: your tickets at rosscomedy.com. It is the biggest show of
- 1:37:21Speaker 2: the year for me and Joel. It is extremely big,
- 1:37:24Speaker 2: and I can't wait to entertain Central Florida over at
- 1:37:26Speaker 2: Mount Dora.
- 1:37:27Speaker 3: Very nice. When was the last time you went to
- 1:37:29Speaker 3: the house? The house.
- 1:37:32Speaker 2: The Waffle House? When was the last time you peeped game? Bro,
- 1:37:35Speaker 2: it's been a minute, too, and I got to tell you...
- 1:37:38Speaker 2: I feel shameful because as a Floridian, as a Southerner,
- 1:37:45Speaker 2: you should almost be required to do one Waffle House
- 1:37:48Speaker 2: visit a year. I believe that 100%. Can I clear
- 1:37:51Speaker 2: something up real quick? Don't come at me with Huddle House.
- 1:37:57Speaker 2: Don't come at me with that. I got no time
- 1:37:59Speaker 2: for Huddle House. It may be a fine product. I
- 1:38:01Speaker 2: do not care. It's Waffle House or no house for
- 1:38:04Speaker 2: your boy. Casa de la Waffles. Still, I've been bringing
- 1:38:10Speaker 2: my son there whenever my wife's not looking.
- 1:38:13Speaker 3: Bro. And man, they do something that no other restaurant
- 1:38:22Speaker 3: does for me.
- 1:38:23Speaker 2: Yeah, knife fights on the menu.
- 1:38:25Speaker 8: Not just that, okay but also there's such a sense
- 1:38:29Speaker 8: of community at every waffle house that i've been to
- 1:38:33Speaker 8: since i've lived in orlando what community though and the
- 1:38:35Speaker 8: community of like brother we're all in it together we're
- 1:38:38Speaker 8: all from the same river we're all going back to
- 1:38:40Speaker 8: the same river that's like the vibe that i get
- 1:38:43Speaker 8: when i go to waffle house and everyone all the
- 1:38:46Speaker 8: people are working and they're they're friendly they love my
- 1:38:50Speaker 8: son yeah yeah they're on a first name basis and
- 1:38:53Speaker 8: just like that's not happening for me over at kiki's
- 1:38:56Speaker 8: i had.
- 1:38:56Speaker 2: Two yeah the funny i agree with that by the
- 1:38:58Speaker 2: way you're never going to get the vibe at kiki's
- 1:39:00Speaker 2: you're going to get at waffle house but i had
- 1:39:01Speaker 2: two long-term experiences with waffle house When I first moved
- 1:39:04Speaker 2: to Orlando, I worked at the Taft UPS plant out
- 1:39:19Speaker 2: there when I first moved to Orlando for a while.
- 1:39:21Speaker 2: And I worked this overnight shift. I started at 11.
- 1:39:23Speaker 2: I got off at like 4 in the morning, right? Well,
- 1:39:26Speaker 2: every time I got off work, I would go to
- 1:39:27Speaker 2: the Waffle House on 441 in like one of the
- 1:39:29Speaker 2: worst parts of Orlando and get a piece of pecan
- 1:39:31Speaker 2: pie and a glass of milk. That was my little
- 1:39:34Speaker 2: treat for working my nuts off in that warehouse because
- 1:39:37Speaker 2: it was the most brutal work.
- 1:39:38Speaker 3: I mean, brutal loading trucks was so bad. That was
- 1:39:40Speaker 3: your cigarette, right? Milk and pie. I did that for
- 1:39:43Speaker 3: about a year and a half. I'm serious.
- 1:39:44Speaker 2: It was at least three times a week. And the
- 1:39:46Speaker 2: other thing was when I used to host the boxing
- 1:39:48Speaker 2: night up at Roxy, I would go to that Waffle House,
- 1:39:53Speaker 2: which is now closed on 50. And, buddy, let me
- 1:39:56Speaker 2: tell you, that thing was the Star Wars cantina. Because
- 1:39:59Speaker 2: you could look around and see, okay, there's a guy
- 1:40:00Speaker 2: in a Gucci suit, two professional rappers, and a guy
- 1:40:04Speaker 2: wearing a sleeping bag. Yeah. And that's what you were
- 1:40:07Speaker 2: eating around. I'm not kidding, man. We just saw almost
- 1:40:09Speaker 2: like three or four brawls, not fights, not like one-on-one dudes.
- 1:40:14Speaker 2: We're like groups of dudes going at it.
- 1:40:17Speaker 8: The last time I went to Waffle House, I struck
- 1:40:19Speaker 8: up a conversation with my server. He was a dad,
- 1:40:22Speaker 8: girl dad. He saw my son. We were talking about fatherhood,
- 1:40:25Speaker 8: and then he also saw my soccer stuff. He saw
- 1:40:28Speaker 8: the Orlando City, and I just told him. I gave
- 1:40:30Speaker 8: him tickets. Oh, that's cool. It wasn't also as my tip,
- 1:40:36Speaker 8: but I tipped him, of course, for the meal. But
- 1:40:38Speaker 8: then I gave him. I got his information. I sent
- 1:40:41Speaker 8: him two Orlando City tickets. And then it's just, I
- 1:40:44Speaker 8: don't know, there's no line over at Waffle House because
- 1:40:47Speaker 8: what are they lying about?
- 1:40:49Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, yeah. Everything's right in front of you.
- 1:40:50Speaker 7: Yeah, yeah.
- 1:40:51Speaker 3: You see the elbow tat. Yeah, yeah.
- 1:40:53Speaker 2: They're down.
- 1:40:54Speaker 3: They got nothing. Yeah, and I just, I don't know.
- 1:40:55Speaker 8: I appreciate the honesty that an average Waffle House server
- 1:41:00Speaker 8: provides that no fine dining restaurant can really give.
- 1:41:05Speaker 13: Oh, no.
- 1:41:05Speaker 2: You're going to have an experience every time you go.
- 1:41:07Speaker 2: All right, so I was telling you guys right before
- 1:41:08Speaker 2: we went to break that I read this story today
- 1:41:10Speaker 2: about a woman who moved to Switzerland. She had to
- 1:41:12Speaker 2: because of her job.
- 1:41:13Speaker 3: Yeah, poor baby. Her husband then soon followed, right? Yeah.
- 1:41:17Speaker 2: And they basically set up shop, and that's where their
- 1:41:20Speaker 2: family is. They have four kids now. And she said
- 1:41:22Speaker 2: that the first year there was brutal. And the reason
- 1:41:24Speaker 2: why is the Swiss apparently aren't chatters.
- 1:41:28Speaker 3: Okay.
- 1:41:29Speaker 2: Which I did not know, but that's the case. They're
- 1:41:30Speaker 2: not really inviting people. They kind of keep them themselves. And,
- 1:41:34Speaker 2: of course, Americans, depending on where you're from and stuff– Hi,
- 1:41:38Speaker 2: how you doing? We like to meet people. We're nice
- 1:41:40Speaker 2: to people. Matter of fact, she mentions it's a far
- 1:41:42Speaker 2: removal from Americans' kindness because although we have a certain
- 1:41:46Speaker 2: reputation globally, maybe, I don't know, but one thing we
- 1:41:49Speaker 2: do have is that most people say that Americans are
- 1:41:52Speaker 2: very inviting people, right? But they had a couple of
- 1:41:55Speaker 2: things that happened that they had to get used to.
- 1:41:57Speaker 2: I found kind of interesting. In Switzerland … You cannot
- 1:42:00Speaker 2: use loud appliances or machines on Sundays, which means you
- 1:42:05Speaker 2: can't wash your clothes. You can't use a microwave. You
- 1:42:08Speaker 2: can't blow your yard off. You can't mow. Nothing like
- 1:42:12Speaker 2: that on Sundays. It is kind of a day of silence,
- 1:42:15Speaker 2: and it's understood that there is no loud, intrusive sounds
- 1:42:19Speaker 2: that happen on Sundays.
- 1:42:21Speaker 3: Back up. Microwave? I was going to say, okay, I
- 1:42:24Speaker 3: get the leaf blower. And the lawnmower.
- 1:42:26Speaker 2: And the lawnmower.
- 1:42:29Speaker 7: But I should be able to wash our clothes and microwave.
- 1:42:32Speaker 7: Those are sounds that are. encompassed in our home.
- 1:42:35Speaker 2: It's a countrywide day of rest and relaxation, and everybody
- 1:42:38Speaker 2: kind of adheres to that. Nobody, like, bucks the system.
- 1:42:41Speaker 2: They've kind of understood that that's how it's going to be,
- 1:42:43Speaker 2: and everybody's perfectly happy with it. That one wasn't really
- 1:42:45Speaker 2: the shocking one, although I think it's cool, and I
- 1:42:47Speaker 2: think America could adopt that in a second.
- 1:42:50Speaker 1: Oh, yeah.
- 1:42:50Speaker 2: Matter of fact, they were concerned at that winter park
- 1:42:52Speaker 2: with the leaf blowers, right?
- 1:42:53Speaker 3: Well, they tried. Yeah, yeah.
- 1:42:55Speaker 8: Sunday, it's the only day out of the week if
- 1:42:57Speaker 8: I woke up from a coma, I could tell you
- 1:42:59Speaker 8: if it was Sunday or not. It's the only day
- 1:43:02Speaker 8: that has this great, wholesome, cartoon morning vibe for me.
- 1:43:07Speaker 3: I don't know why.
- 1:43:08Speaker 2: It's your only nothing day. It's the only day that
- 1:43:11Speaker 2: most people don't write. Like schedule stuff other than family stuff.
- 1:43:15Speaker 4: It's in God's laws.
- 1:43:16Speaker 3: Understood.
- 1:43:17Speaker 8: Yeah, and also if I'm a POS on a Sunday, dude,
- 1:43:21Speaker 8: I'm guilt free.
- 1:43:22Speaker 3: I'm like, eh, Sunday. Eh, Sunday.
- 1:43:24Speaker 2: I like it because of no pressure to accomplish anything
- 1:43:27Speaker 2: on Sundays for the rule for me.
- 1:43:28Speaker 3: That's what I'm talking about.
- 1:43:29Speaker 2: I don't wake up with a burden of completion, which
- 1:43:32Speaker 2: I love.
- 1:43:32Speaker 5: Right.
- 1:43:33Speaker 2: That's like my favorite thing in the world is just
- 1:43:35Speaker 2: knowing I don't have anything to do that day. That's
- 1:43:38Speaker 2: the greatest.
- 1:43:38Speaker 8: Well, Sundays, I still have stuff to do, but it's
- 1:43:41Speaker 8: the only day that I can blame the day for
- 1:43:44Speaker 8: not getting it done.
- 1:43:45Speaker 3: Yeah, but even then, it's no schedule.
- 1:43:48Speaker 2: Like, I may get up on Sunday and have one
- 1:43:50Speaker 2: or two things to do, but there's no pressure to
- 1:43:52Speaker 2: get it done any time. Like, I could get it
- 1:43:54Speaker 2: done at 11. I could do it at 2. It
- 1:43:55Speaker 2: doesn't really matter. I think skies are a little bit
- 1:43:57Speaker 2: more blue on Sundays. And here's the other thing that's
- 1:44:00Speaker 2: kind of interesting. People in Switzerland do not argue with
- 1:44:04Speaker 2: each other.
- 1:44:06Speaker 3: They do not.
- 1:44:07Speaker 2: If they have a disagreement, they do this instead. And
- 1:44:13Speaker 2: by the way, this is also in families. Not only
- 1:44:17Speaker 2: do you have a scenario of like I had a
- 1:44:18Speaker 2: work issue with Jack or whatever or Ross or you
- 1:44:21Speaker 2: guys had one with me. There would not be a, hey,
- 1:44:24Speaker 2: I'm going to come up to you and talk to
- 1:44:25Speaker 2: you about it, and it could turn into an argument, whatever.
- 1:44:29Speaker 2: They don't do things like that. There are no face-to-face. What,
- 1:44:31Speaker 2: do they write a letter? That's exactly what they do.
- 1:44:33Speaker 12: Yeah.
- 1:44:34Speaker 6: Yeah.
- 1:44:35Speaker 2: So what they do is this. Let's say I had
- 1:44:37Speaker 2: a problem with Jack or Deb or Ross. We had
- 1:44:40Speaker 2: an issue here at work. Rather than even bring it up,
- 1:44:43Speaker 2: like it would never even be brought up, you type
- 1:44:46Speaker 2: it out on a letter, you laminate that letter, and
- 1:44:49Speaker 2: you stick it to their front door. And that includes
- 1:44:52Speaker 2: your own family. If your kid did something sideways to you,
- 1:44:55Speaker 2: instead of scolding your child, they don't do that. They
- 1:44:59Speaker 2: write a letter to their kid and they tape it
- 1:45:01Speaker 2: to their bedroom door. So when their kid gets home,
- 1:45:04Speaker 2: they can read it and there's no confrontation. Then the
- 1:45:08Speaker 2: kid writes back to the parent how they feel about
- 1:45:11Speaker 2: the letter.
- 1:45:12Speaker 7: This is why the Swiss are always the ones in
- 1:45:15Speaker 7: the middle.
- 1:45:15Speaker 3: They don't pick any sides. You can always count on
- 1:45:17Speaker 3: them to be, you know.
- 1:45:18Speaker 6: Neutral.
- 1:45:19Speaker 3: Neutral.
- 1:45:20Speaker 2: I was like, well, is that a good way to
- 1:45:24Speaker 2: resolve issues? And the funny thing is, is I've been
- 1:45:28Speaker 2: in a relationship before where we really didn't do that.
- 1:45:31Speaker 2: We just wrote email back and forth if we had
- 1:45:33Speaker 2: a serious issue. Because we found that our emotions got
- 1:45:36Speaker 2: a little too deep when we were talking about things
- 1:45:38Speaker 2: and we would kind of– the temperature that would raise
- 1:45:41Speaker 2: up a little bit. And we found that did not
- 1:45:42Speaker 2: happen when you're just simply typing it out, that the
- 1:45:45Speaker 2: person could read it. They could take it in. They
- 1:45:46Speaker 2: could think about the response. It wasn't reactive. You could
- 1:45:49Speaker 2: say everything.
- 1:45:50Speaker 3: You have to say without being interrupted or getting sidetracked by–
- 1:45:53Speaker 3: and not– fully explaining what you wanted to say. Yeah, fully.
- 1:45:59Speaker 2: And by the way, it takes the flame away from
- 1:46:03Speaker 2: the scenario because you've sat and thought about it. You
- 1:46:06Speaker 2: can re-edit it. And when you post it up, that's
- 1:46:08Speaker 2: your final thought. And the other person can do the
- 1:46:10Speaker 2: same thing. Because everyone's been in an argument, right? When
- 1:46:12Speaker 2: you're like, oh, God, I'm so mad. This person's so mad.
- 1:46:16Speaker 3: We're in the middle of an argument. And I just
- 1:46:18Speaker 3: crossed the line. Yeah, oh, like. I just said that. Whoops.
- 1:46:21Speaker 3: I just dropped a nuke. Or are you just talking
- 1:46:24Speaker 3: so fast you say something you don't mean like microwave? Jack,
- 1:46:31Speaker 3: I'm not in a relationship with you. Are you going
- 1:46:33Speaker 3: to send me a letter? You are the last one
- 1:46:35Speaker 3: to find out then.
- 1:46:36Speaker 2: What do you think about that, Debra? I would think
- 1:46:41Speaker 2: that of all of us, you're actually one of the
- 1:46:43Speaker 2: better communicators on the show. You're pretty level-headed with no
- 1:46:48Speaker 2: Jack Daniels.
- 1:46:49Speaker 4: It stopped me with laminate.
- 1:46:52Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean I don't.
- 1:46:53Speaker 2: Know that that's necessary. I think they just do that
- 1:46:55Speaker 2: to make sure it doesn't get messed up. So it
- 1:46:57Speaker 2: slides under.
- 1:46:58Speaker 3: Right, exactly.
- 1:46:59Speaker 4: Can't avoid it. Can't say you automatically deleted it.
- 1:47:02Speaker 2: But the idea of– like you, Chris, you get into
- 1:47:05Speaker 2: an argument and instead of– you have a disagreement. And
- 1:47:10Speaker 2: instead of like, hey, Chris, I need to talk to
- 1:47:12Speaker 2: you kind of thing, you write a letter out. And,
- 1:47:15Speaker 2: I mean, you post it to where you know he's
- 1:47:17Speaker 2: going to be, like maybe leaving the house that morning
- 1:47:18Speaker 2: and he gets that letter. Do you think you can
- 1:47:20Speaker 2: resolve issues like that?
- 1:47:22Speaker 3: I'd prefer not to. You would?
- 1:47:24Speaker 4: Yeah, I'd prefer not to.
- 1:47:25Speaker 2: You would prefer just to get super pissed right in
- 1:47:26Speaker 2: their face?
- 1:47:27Speaker 4: No, not at all because you don't have to.
- 1:47:28Speaker 3: Yeah, you're not.
- 1:47:29Speaker 4: Yeah, definitely not.
- 1:47:30Speaker 7: But it is interesting the people who are texting us
- 1:47:32Speaker 7: and letting us know it's the same thing in Germany
- 1:47:33Speaker 7: and Austria.
- 1:47:34Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 1:47:34Speaker 2: Yeah, and those are right next to each other.
- 1:47:36Speaker 7: So no shopping, no work, no noise on Sunday. It
- 1:47:39Speaker 7: really is considered a day of just of rest.
- 1:47:42Speaker 3: About that life.
- 1:47:43Speaker 4: Which is supposed to be that way.
- 1:47:45Speaker 7: And science has shown that if you do take Sunday
- 1:47:48Speaker 7: off one day at least a week and you do nothing,
- 1:47:51Speaker 7: it does benefit you mentally. But don't you find as
- 1:47:54Speaker 7: well as like I know Ross says the sky is
- 1:47:56Speaker 7: a little bit bluer on Sunday, but Sunday is also
- 1:47:58Speaker 7: kind of like the bummer of the weekend days because,
- 1:48:01Speaker 7: you know, the very next day.
- 1:48:02Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah.
- 1:48:03Speaker 8: But football season ain't like that. I'm living in the now.
- 1:48:07Speaker 8: I'm not worried about Monday. I'm trying to soak in Sunday.
- 1:48:11Speaker 8: I got to tell you, I don't get that either, man. No?
- 1:48:13Speaker 3: I really don't. Not at all.
- 1:48:14Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't get that bummer Monday's coming thing. And
- 1:48:18Speaker 2: I guess maybe because we have this job.
- 1:48:19Speaker 3: Yeah, I guess. it's only one of us who hates
- 1:48:21Speaker 3: her job.
- 1:48:21Speaker 11: Yeah.
- 1:48:22Speaker 4: Not the job.
- 1:48:27Speaker 3: Not the job. Perfectly said. I get it.
- 1:48:30Speaker 2: Am I the guy? Yeah, but I just found that
- 1:48:34Speaker 2: kind of interesting. I was like, man, I don't know.
- 1:48:37Speaker 2: But the thing is, I have written my kids letters before.
- 1:48:39Speaker 7: Sometimes it does help diffuse because you get to say,
- 1:48:42Speaker 7: like Jack said, you get to say what you need
- 1:48:44Speaker 7: to say. Without being interrupted or without the other person
- 1:48:48Speaker 7: being triggered by what they thought they heard.
- 1:48:51Speaker 2: Somebody just texted and said they thought it was cowardly.
- 1:48:53Speaker 8: No, I don't think it's cowardly because what's cowardly is
- 1:48:57Speaker 8: not trying anything at all.
- 1:48:58Speaker 3: And running away. There's still an attempt of communication.
- 1:49:01Speaker 8: Which I can honestly say, that is, I thought that
- 1:49:05Speaker 8: was a given.
- 1:49:05Speaker 3: I thought everybody tried.
- 1:49:06Speaker 1: Nope.
- 1:49:07Speaker 8: No. Some people just go to the grave, never sharing
- 1:49:12Speaker 8: their two cents.
- 1:49:12Speaker 2: Some people understand.
- 1:49:14Speaker 3: You do not look at me. I do not. You
- 1:49:16Speaker 3: do not look at me. No, I wasn't.
- 1:49:17Speaker 2: It sounded like you didn't. Jack, do you think it
- 1:49:21Speaker 2: was just him looking at you? I've got some horrible
- 1:49:25Speaker 2: news for you. I'll write you a letter about it. Uh,
- 1:49:27Speaker 2: four Oh seven nine one six one Oh four. I'll
- 1:49:29Speaker 2: tape it to your door. Uh, seven seven zero three one.
- 1:49:32Speaker 3: Load them up guys.
- 1:49:32Speaker 2: It's time for trivia.
- 1:49:33Speaker 3: We'll do that next. Hey crew.
- 1:49:36Speaker 2: Uh, I met Judy from life imaging.
- 1:49:39Speaker 3: Oh boy.
- 1:49:40Speaker 6: The poker tournament weeks ago. And she hooked me up with, uh,
- 1:49:44Speaker 6: a scan of my brain, body and heart. And I
- 1:49:50Speaker 6: couldn't be more pleased. Um, I think I'm going to
- 1:49:53Speaker 6: live a few more years. And they're just awesome people.
- 1:49:57Speaker 6: And I think everyone needs to go there.
- 1:50:01Speaker 3: Thank you all.
- 1:50:02Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 1:50:03Speaker 2: Yeah, dude, the testimonials out of Life Imaging are pretty amazing. Actually,
- 1:50:06Speaker 2: Deb was just reminding me of a story that broke
- 1:50:08Speaker 2: this past week of actress Busy Phillips.
- 1:50:11Speaker 7: She got a body scan despite her primary care doctor
- 1:50:14Speaker 7: saying she didn't need it.
- 1:50:16Speaker 4: You know, it was unnecessary.
- 1:50:17Speaker 7: Her cousin's husband is a doctor and said, love those scans.
- 1:50:21Speaker 4: Get it done.
- 1:50:22Speaker 2: They found a tumor in her brain.
- 1:50:24Speaker 3: A very rare tumor.
- 1:50:25Speaker 2: Yeah, that her doctor said they had no issues, but
- 1:50:27Speaker 2: the scan found it. That's the thing, man.
- 1:50:30Speaker 3: And you meet Judy.
- 1:50:31Speaker 2: Judy is such a fireball.
- 1:50:32Speaker 4: Oh, she's a hoot.
- 1:50:32Speaker 2: You absolutely couldn't love her more. And she's a little bombastic.
- 1:50:36Speaker 2: But the thing is, she's so dead serious about this.
- 1:50:39Speaker 2: She has such a great sense of humor. But when
- 1:50:41Speaker 2: you start talking to her about the results that people
- 1:50:43Speaker 2: have and the lives that that thing has saved, I mean,
- 1:50:46Speaker 2: she damn near gets emotional every time you talk about it.
- 1:50:48Speaker 3: Oh, yeah, absolutely.
- 1:50:48Speaker 2: And she's seen it over and over again. It really
- 1:50:50Speaker 2: is magical. So we appreciate that testimonial, buddy. Thank you
- 1:50:53Speaker 2: so much. Welcome back to the Jim Colbert Show.
- 1:50:55Speaker 3: I'm Jim.
- 1:50:55Speaker 2: There's Deb.
- 1:50:56Speaker 3: Hello.
- 1:50:56Speaker 12: Jack.
- 1:50:58Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 1:50:59Speaker 2: And Ross is here as well. Jack, what's in the
- 1:51:01Speaker 2: Jackie sack, buddy?

- 1:51:10Speaker 3: Interdoc Coast Stadium. This game is happening September 5th. Maybe
- 1:51:16Speaker 3: you can see Griezmann score some.
- 1:51:18Speaker 8: Yeah, he just scored a brace on a 2-1 comeback
- 1:51:21Speaker 8: victory from the boys in purple.
- 1:51:23Speaker 3: Sweet.
- 1:51:23Speaker 2: If you are looking for community entertainment supporting something Orlando,
- 1:51:28Speaker 2: let me recommend Orlando City.
- 1:51:31Speaker 3: Man, didn't that place get exciting when he scored that? God,
- 1:51:33Speaker 3: it was awesome. It was so good.
- 1:51:35Speaker 8: If you haven't seen a goal live change that, you
- 1:51:37Speaker 8: might have a new addiction.
- 1:51:39Speaker 2: I gotta go check this cat out.
- 1:51:40Speaker 3: We also have tickets for something happening tomorrow night. It's
- 1:51:44Speaker 3: the NASCAR O'Reilly Auto Park Series Winn-Dixie 250 at Daytona

- 1:51:52Speaker 3: August 28th. That's tomorrow. You can go.
- 1:51:57Speaker 2: Those race names are exhausting.
- 1:51:59Speaker 3: It's the no-waps. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 1:52:01Speaker 1: No-waps.
- 1:52:01Speaker 3: It's so much easier. No-waps. Anyway, those are the prizes
- 1:52:04Speaker 3: in the Jackie bag.
- 1:52:05Speaker 4: So back to you, clickety-clack.
- 1:52:06Speaker 2: Dang it, everyone.
- 1:52:07Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 1:52:08Speaker 2: One, two, three, four, or five.
- 1:52:09Speaker 4: Let's go to number two.
- 1:52:11Speaker 2: Two sounds good. That is Danny. Danny, how you doing?
- 1:52:14Speaker 3: What up, Jim?
- 1:52:15Speaker 2: What's up, Blair? You want to play a little game
- 1:52:17Speaker 2: with us?
- 1:52:18Speaker 20: I do.
- 1:52:19Speaker 3: Let's do it.
- 1:52:20Speaker 13: Right now.
- 1:52:24Speaker 2: Danny's very aggro when it comes to the game.
- 1:52:26Speaker 3: I like it. He's ready.
- 1:52:27Speaker 2: Danny, I like your aggro nature when it comes to trivia, buddy.
- 1:52:31Speaker 3: It's my wife's birthday.
- 1:52:32Speaker 13: Tomorrow, and I'm trying to go to the Winn-Dixie 250.
- 1:52:34Speaker 3: All right.
- 1:52:35Speaker 13: But she's probably going.
- 1:52:36Speaker 3: To want to go out to dinner.
- 1:52:37Speaker 11: Well, we're going to give you a... Ain't nothing wrong
- 1:52:42Speaker 11: with a dog at the track. Hey, Danny, if you
- 1:52:45Speaker 11: lose this game, hang on there a minute.
- 1:52:47Speaker 3: Stay on the phone. All right, buddy.
- 1:52:48Speaker 2: This is a real easy game. Danny, I've got a
- 1:52:50Speaker 2: question here for you. Four answers. One of these answers
- 1:52:52Speaker 2: is not true.
- 1:52:53Speaker 5: What?
- 1:52:54Speaker 2: Trying to fool you, buddy, but if you can find it,
- 1:52:56Speaker 2: I'll send you over to Jack, and he's at the
- 1:52:57Speaker 2: Jackie Sack, and you can dig around there a little bit.
- 1:52:59Speaker 3: All right. Are you ready?
- 1:53:01Speaker 13: Can't wait. Can't wait.
- 1:53:02Speaker 1: I'm ready.
- 1:53:02Speaker 2: Here we go. On this day in 1964, the Disney
- 1:53:07Speaker 2: classic Mary Poppins premieres at Grauman's Chinese Theater.
- 1:53:11Speaker 8: Oh, cool.
- 1:53:12Speaker 2: Here are three fun facts about Mary Poppins and one
- 1:53:14Speaker 2: lie that makes the medicine go down.
- 1:53:16Speaker 11: Aw.
- 1:53:17Speaker 2: All right, buddy, we're talking about Mary Poppins, the movie
- 1:53:19Speaker 2: from 64. Which one of these is not true? Number one,
- 1:53:22Speaker 2: Mary Poppins was supposed to be a ride at Magic Kingdom,
- 1:53:25Speaker 2: but Peter Pan's flight was chosen instead. Number two, the
- 1:53:29Speaker 2: animatronic Robin in the movie was the beginning of Disney Imagineering.
- 1:53:34Speaker 2: Number three, the song A Spoonful of Sugar was inspired
- 1:53:38Speaker 2: by the writer's children explaining how they took the polio vaccine.
- 1:53:43Speaker 2: Or lastly, it took Walt Disney nearly 10 years to
- 1:53:46Speaker 2: convince P.L. Travers to sell him the rights to the movie.
- 1:53:49Speaker 2: She needed the money. Which of those is a lie?
- 1:53:53Speaker 3: You're too good, Jim. I got no clue. I'm going
- 1:53:56Speaker 3: to guess number one.
- 1:53:57Speaker 2: No, that's absolutely true. Unfortunately, Mary Poppins was supposed to
- 1:54:00Speaker 2: be a ride at Magic Kingdom, but Peter Pan's flight
- 1:54:03Speaker 2: was chosen instead.
- 1:54:04Speaker 3: Do you know why?
- 1:54:07Speaker 4: Easier?
- 1:54:07Speaker 2: Walt Disney wanted people who went to the Magic Kingdom
- 1:54:11Speaker 2: here to have the same ride experiences they had at Disneyland.
- 1:54:15Speaker 6: Oh.
- 1:54:15Speaker 2: He didn't want two different rides. He wanted them to
- 1:54:17Speaker 2: be similar on each coast.
- 1:54:19Speaker 4: And yet now we have different rides.
- 1:54:21Speaker 2: Exactly right. All right, Deb, one, three, four, or five?
- 1:54:24Speaker 3: Let's go five.
- 1:54:24Speaker 2: Five sounds good. That is Kathy. Kathy, how are you?
- 1:54:28Speaker 13: Great.
- 1:54:28Speaker 3: Good.
- 1:54:29Speaker 2: We're talking about Mary Poppins, Kathy. Which one of these
- 1:54:31Speaker 2: isn't true? Number one, the animatronic Robin in the movie
- 1:54:34Speaker 2: was the beginning of Disney Imagineering. Number two, the song
- 1:54:37Speaker 2: A Spoonful of Sugar was inspired by the writer's children
- 1:54:40Speaker 2: explaining how they took the polio vaccine. Or lastly, it
- 1:54:43Speaker 2: took Walt Disney nearly 10 years to convince P.L. Travers
- 1:54:46Speaker 2: to sell him the rights to the movie. She needed
- 1:54:48Speaker 2: the money.
- 1:54:48Speaker 7: Two.
- 1:54:51Speaker 2: No, that's absolutely true. The song, A Spoonful of Sugar,
- 1:54:54Speaker 2: was inspired. Matter of fact, the guy was in a
- 1:54:56Speaker 2: writer's block, and he had no idea how he was
- 1:54:59Speaker 2: going to kind of create this song. When his kids
- 1:55:01Speaker 2: came home, they were telling him about taking the polio vaccine,
- 1:55:04Speaker 2: and he's like, how did it taste? And he goes, well,
- 1:55:06Speaker 2: they put it on sugar cube and just gave it
- 1:55:07Speaker 2: to me, and that was the inspiration for the song,
- 1:55:09Speaker 2: A Spoonful of Sugar Makes the Medicine Go Down. Pretty cool, huh?
- 1:55:13Speaker 3: Isn't that cool?
- 1:55:13Speaker 7: Yeah.
- 1:55:14Speaker 2: All right, one, three, or four?
- 1:55:15Speaker 4: Let's go one.
- 1:55:16Speaker 2: One sounds good.
- 1:55:17Speaker 3: That is Gary.
- 1:55:18Speaker 2: Gary, how are you?
- 1:55:19Speaker 5: I'm good.
- 1:55:20Speaker 3: All right, buddy.
- 1:55:21Speaker 2: You got a 50-50 shot here. We're talking about Mary Poppins.
- 1:55:23Speaker 2: Which one of these is not true? Number one, the
- 1:55:25Speaker 2: animatronic Robin in the movie was the beginning of Disney Imagineering.
- 1:55:29Speaker 2: Or lastly, it took Walt Disney nearly 10 years to
- 1:55:32Speaker 2: convince P.L. Travers to sell him the rights to the movie.
- 1:55:35Speaker 2: She needed the money.
- 1:55:37Speaker 21: Number one.
- 1:55:38Speaker 2: No, that's absolutely true.
- 1:55:40Speaker 3: Oh, you made it, Puzzle Master.
- 1:55:41Speaker 2: Absolutely true. You got a Sophie's Choice here. Is it
- 1:55:44Speaker 2: Paul or Chris?
- 1:55:46Speaker 4: I got to go with Chris.
- 1:55:47Speaker 2: Chris is right. Chris, how you doing?
- 1:55:50Speaker 17: I'm doing great, guys.
- 1:55:51Speaker 2: Hey, buddy, you are doing great.
- 1:55:52Speaker 3: Tell me this.
- 1:55:53Speaker 2: It took Walt Disney nearly 10 years to convince P.L.
- 1:55:56Speaker 2: Travers to sell him the rights to the movie.
- 1:55:57Speaker 3: She needed the money. That's a big old fat lie, Jim.
- 1:56:00Speaker 2: It is a big fat lie. How many years did
- 1:56:03Speaker 2: it take?
- 1:56:06Speaker 13: Almost 20.
- 1:56:07Speaker 3: It did almost take 20 years. He's 100% right. At
- 1:56:10Speaker 3: least he knew. Good job, Chris.
- 1:56:14Speaker 2: Almost 20 years to convince P.L. Travers to sell him
- 1:56:17Speaker 2: the rights to the movie. She did not want to
- 1:56:19Speaker 2: do it, but she got hard up for cash and
- 1:56:21Speaker 2: had to wind up just selling him the rights.
- 1:56:23Speaker 7: And she had to have loved the end product. It's
- 1:56:26Speaker 7: a beloved movie for how many decades? And what's fascinating
- 1:56:29Speaker 7: is I had no idea. That Robin is what started
- 1:56:32Speaker 7: Disney Imagineering.
- 1:56:34Speaker 2: That led to Hall of Presidents. It led to all that.
- 1:56:37Speaker 2: And then they actually started the Imagineering program based on
- 1:56:41Speaker 2: the work they did on that Robin. And it created
- 1:56:43Speaker 2: an entire genre of other things for them just based
- 1:56:47Speaker 2: on that one little movie.
- 1:56:48Speaker 20: Yeah.
- 1:56:49Speaker 7: For a lot of people, that's like the creme de
- 1:56:51Speaker 7: la creme is to become an Imagineer.
- 1:56:53Speaker 2: Some other things you may not know about Mary Poppins
- 1:56:55Speaker 2: before we get to the top of the hour. We've
- 1:56:56Speaker 2: got raw slots coming up in a few minutes.
- 1:56:57Speaker 3: Oh, yeah.
- 1:56:58Speaker 2: The nanny who leaves the Banks family to make room
- 1:57:01Speaker 2: for Mary Poppins also played the Bride of Frankenstein.
- 1:57:05Speaker 13: Really?
- 1:57:05Speaker 2: Yeah, she's the actress that actually played the Bride of Frankenstein.
- 1:57:08Speaker 2: The author of the book Mary Poppins, P.L.
- 1:57:10Speaker 3: Travers.
- 1:57:11Speaker 2: Absolutely loathed the movie.
- 1:57:14Speaker 6: Really?
- 1:57:14Speaker 2: She hated it more than anything. Actually, she hated it
- 1:57:17Speaker 2: so much, she swore she would never work with Disney again.
- 1:57:21Speaker 2: Would constantly storm off the set because the writers wanted
- 1:57:24Speaker 2: to make the movie. Mary Poppins wasn't supposed to be nice.
- 1:57:27Speaker 2: She was supposed to be like an old hag, a
- 1:57:28Speaker 2: bit of a bitch, and a bit of a.
- 1:57:32Speaker 2: Like a taskmaster.
- 1:57:34Speaker 3: Right.
- 1:57:34Speaker 2: And it wasn't as bright and shiny as it was
- 1:57:37Speaker 2: in the book. And she hated the fact that they
- 1:57:40Speaker 2: changed so much about the book.
- 1:57:41Speaker 4: Did she not see what they did to the Grimm
- 1:57:43Speaker 4: Brother fairy tales?
- 1:57:45Speaker 2: The entire movie was actually shot indoors. Yep, not one
- 1:57:49Speaker 2: frame of this movie shot outside. And then lastly, the
- 1:57:53Speaker 2: song Feed the Birds, if you'll remember when she's holding
- 1:57:55Speaker 2: the snow globe.
- 1:57:57Speaker 4: Top end.
- 1:57:58Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah.
- 1:57:58Speaker 2: That's Walt Disney's favorite song of all time. Not just
- 1:58:02Speaker 2: favorite Disney song, that's his favorite song ever. And another
- 1:58:06Speaker 2: thing about that snow globe, because when the movie wrapped,
- 1:58:09Speaker 2: nobody kind of knew what... to do with the thing.
- 1:58:10Speaker 2: They threw that in the trash. A prop master went
- 1:58:14Speaker 2: and dug it out of the trash because it almost
- 1:58:16Speaker 2: went to the bin and would have been lost forever.
- 1:58:20Speaker 17: Wow.
- 1:58:21Speaker 2: By the way, this is a fraction of the cool
- 1:58:23Speaker 2: stuff about the production of Mary Poppins. If you want
- 1:58:26Speaker 2: a cool little wormhole, just go tell AI to give
- 1:58:30Speaker 2: you like 50 fun facts about Mary Poppins and just
- 1:58:33Speaker 2: read on. It really is kind of crazy.
- 1:58:35Speaker 3: Never saw it. Yeah, yeah.
- 1:58:36Speaker 5: What?
- 1:58:36Speaker 4: What?
- 1:58:37Speaker 3: I don't know that I've seen it from beginning to end.
- 1:58:40Speaker 3: You don't know about the penguin dance? I've seen clips
- 1:58:42Speaker 3: of Dick Van Dyke dancing. I have seen it all
- 1:58:45Speaker 3: the way through.
- 1:58:45Speaker 4: Oh, it's such a good movie.
- 1:58:46Speaker 3: It is amazing, yeah. They customized penguin pants, Jack. It
- 1:58:50Speaker 3: was cool.
- 1:58:52Speaker 14: Thoughts?
- 1:58:53Speaker 7: Yes.
- 1:58:53Speaker 8: We have a new ally. In fact, I don't know
- 1:58:57Speaker 8: if they even know this, but we have got to thank...
- 1:59:00Speaker 8: The country of Australia.
- 1:59:02Speaker 3: Do we?
- 1:59:03Speaker 8: Yeah, because they're leading the charge against something. And the
- 1:59:05Speaker 8: rest of the world needs to catch up. All right.
- 1:59:10Speaker 8: That's a Terminator reference. We need to follow Australia. I'm
- 1:59:17Speaker 8: not going to do it again. Well, I thought that
- 1:59:20Speaker 8: was it. I thought on the third one we were
- 1:59:22Speaker 8: going to. Yeah, that's next on Ross Thoughts.
- 1:59:23Speaker 7: Yeah.
- 1:59:24Speaker 1: Good afternoon, morning, cold, burnt, cold brew.
- 1:59:26Speaker 10: Okay, so I have to say I'm a little disappointed
- 1:59:28Speaker 10: in my sister because she is about to have a
- 1:59:30Speaker 10: little girl in less than a month, and it's going
- 1:59:32Speaker 10: to stop me and Mama T from coming out to Suds, Pops,
- 1:59:35Speaker 10: and Pines.
- 1:59:35Speaker 1: No, I'm just kidding.
- 1:59:36Speaker 10: I'm actually wicked hyped for her, super excited, and if
- 1:59:39Speaker 10: we have to miss it, that's okay. But hey, Ross,
- 1:59:41Speaker 10: just a quick question for you. Do you know why
- 1:59:44Speaker 10: you should never date a soccer player? Well, I mean, dude,
- 1:59:48Speaker 10: if you break up, that one might have been a keeper.
- 1:59:49Speaker 20: Oh.
- 1:59:51Speaker 6: Oh.
- 1:59:54Speaker 3: That hurt. Not bad. Not bad.
- 1:59:59Speaker 4: It's a shame if he doesn't make it out to
- 2:00:01Speaker 4: sad spots and pints.
- 2:00:02Speaker 3: Yeah, it would be a shame.
- 2:00:04Speaker 21: Yeah.
- 2:00:04Speaker 2: Tiny bit of redemption there for Big T. Give me
- 2:00:07Speaker 2: a good event.
- 2:00:09Speaker 7: It's going to miss out on something special.
- 2:00:13Speaker 6: 407-916-1041.
- 2:00:13Speaker 2: Text us 77031. Welcome back.
- 2:00:15Speaker 3: I'm Jim.
- 2:00:15Speaker 2: There's Deb.
- 2:00:16Speaker 22: Hello.
- 2:00:16Speaker 2: Jack is here as well.
- 2:00:17Speaker 3: Yep.
- 2:00:18Speaker 2: And Ross has some thoughts. Let's get them.
- 2:00:20Speaker 3: It's weird. Mills Air. It's funny. You need to call them. Sometimes.
- 2:00:25Speaker 3: It's hot out. It's Ross. Spelled like sauce. It's Ross Thoughts.
- 2:00:32Speaker 8: Today's Ross Thoughts is brought to you by Mills Air,
- 2:00:35Speaker 8: one of the greatest local companies in Central Florida's history.
- 2:00:39Speaker 8: At this point, we're talking over 30 years. That means
- 2:00:42Speaker 8: what they do is working. They are trusted. If you
- 2:00:45Speaker 8: have any, and I mean any, AC questions, wants, or needs...
- 2:00:50Speaker 8: There's only one answer, and that answer is Mills Air.
- 2:00:52Speaker 3: Visit them at MillsAir.com. Jim! Yes, sir.
- 2:00:56Speaker 8: I started off going, dun-dun-dun-dun-dun, because this is a Terminator
- 2:01:00Speaker 8: 2 moment for me.
- 2:01:01Speaker 3: All right, I like it.
- 2:01:02Speaker 8: When I see this news flash across my little news feed,
- 2:01:06Speaker 8: or when I log into my email account, which is Yahoo,
- 2:01:09Speaker 8: which is somewhat, I found myself finding that to be
- 2:01:13Speaker 8: a hot take. Shout out to my Yahoo sister and brother-in-law.
- 2:01:17Speaker 8: I am House Yahoo.
- 2:01:19Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't have any problem. Yahoo is the very
- 2:01:20Speaker 2: first website I visit every morning. Yeah, but now it's
- 2:01:23Speaker 2: not anymore, right?
- 2:01:24Speaker 7: No.
- 2:01:25Speaker 3: Yeah, see?
- 2:01:25Speaker 8: It lost its touch. It got dust. This website has dust.
- 2:01:29Speaker 8: But it also gives me my news on that first
- 2:01:32Speaker 8: little ticker. That's my first introduction to news. And I
- 2:01:35Speaker 8: just read this. It was also brought up on this
- 2:01:37Speaker 8: last week's episode of Good Sauce from Joel because he
- 2:01:40Speaker 8: brought it up to my attention.
- 2:01:41Speaker 3: Australia has made a decision.
- 2:01:47Speaker 8: And that is to ban AI-generated tracks from official music charts.
- 2:01:52Speaker 10: Really?
- 2:01:52Speaker 5: Look at there.
- 2:01:53Speaker 8: They stepped up and said, nah, we want you to
- 2:01:56Speaker 8: use pro tools and make your little beeps and bops yourselves.
- 2:02:00Speaker 3: That's right.
- 2:02:01Speaker 8: And this all started from a remix from a DJ
- 2:02:05Speaker 8: that was using a Madonna song that started charting.
- 2:02:08Speaker 3: And people started getting rubbed the wrong way.
- 2:02:10Speaker 8: And I bring this up for Ross Thoughts as so
- 2:02:14Speaker 8: much more than like, oh, did you see the news?
- 2:02:17Speaker 8: I think this is the first hit back. I think
- 2:02:19Speaker 8: this is the first strike back. This is the first
- 2:02:21Speaker 8: John Connor, dun, dun, dun, dun, dun, moment that I
- 2:02:24Speaker 8: have seen. Yeah, the first salvo, huh? The first punch,
- 2:02:28Speaker 8: the first counterpunch.
- 2:02:29Speaker 3: There you go.
- 2:02:31Speaker 8: And I'm here to tell you, it's not from the
- 2:02:34Speaker 8: powers to be that is going to curve this.
- 2:02:37Speaker 2: This is just an award. This is just a chart
- 2:02:40Speaker 2: over in Australia. It's just going to be people not
- 2:02:42Speaker 2: buying into it, right? That's the whole thing. It's like
- 2:02:44Speaker 2: people are just like, I don't want that trash kind
- 2:02:45Speaker 2: of thing or no.
- 2:02:46Speaker 3: And it's got me.
- 2:02:47Speaker 8: Well, not only do we not want that trash, it's
- 2:02:50Speaker 8: also the ethics behind it right now. Because what I'm
- 2:02:53Speaker 8: worried about is that what happens when it starts to
- 2:02:56Speaker 8: not sound like trash? What happens when people can't tell
- 2:03:00Speaker 8: at all?
- 2:03:01Speaker 3: At all, at all.
- 2:03:01Speaker 8: Now, the average person, I believe in this, I don't
- 2:03:05Speaker 8: think the average person can tell right now.
- 2:03:07Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 2:03:08Speaker 8: You grab your 50-year-old middle-of-the-road person in Nebraska and show
- 2:03:13Speaker 8: them an AI song?
- 2:03:15Speaker 7: Yeah, yeah.
- 2:03:16Speaker 3: I don't know.
- 2:03:17Speaker 2: We should do that next break. We should do that
- 2:03:20Speaker 2: one day on the air, just kind of get a
- 2:03:21Speaker 2: couple songs that are AI produced against other songs that
- 2:03:24Speaker 2: maybe we aren't familiar with and see if we can
- 2:03:26Speaker 2: pick them out.
- 2:03:26Speaker 8: Well, it doesn't even have to stop there. This is
- 2:03:29Speaker 8: where it gets even more John Connor-y a little bit.
- 2:03:34Speaker 8: It starts also with those algorithms. I guarantee you every
- 2:03:39Speaker 8: single millennial, if you are lucky enough to still have
- 2:03:41Speaker 8: both of your parents alive... You have got sent a
- 2:03:46Speaker 8: AI video or BS video from your parents.
- 2:03:50Speaker 2: With a paragraph that is like, could you believe this?
- 2:03:54Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah. Starting off like that or something like that, yeah.
- 2:03:56Speaker 3: I warned you about Obama.
- 2:04:00Speaker 8: And now, and I don't want to throw underneath the bus,
- 2:04:04Speaker 8: but I'll send you, I'll give you an example. My
- 2:04:06Speaker 8: mom once sent me a video of Donald Trump talking
- 2:04:08Speaker 8: about how great mothers are for Mother's Day.
- 2:04:10Speaker 3: Right, right, right. And I saw the video. Immediately. <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> Toothpaste,
- 2:04:17Speaker 3: go back. Yeah, yeah, yeah. It ain't going back. It
- 2:04:21Speaker 3: ain't going back. It ain't going back.
- 2:04:22Speaker 8: Which is why that is your main entree of a
- 2:04:25Speaker 8: Ross thought.
- 2:04:26Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, yeah. It ain't going back.
- 2:04:28Speaker 8: And she's the target audience. You have to be pro.
- 2:04:31Speaker 8: She once sent me a video saying, hey, did you
- 2:04:33Speaker 8: know that the director of the FBI competed in this
- 2:04:36Speaker 8: year's Olympics?
- 2:04:37Speaker 3: Yeah. And damn, if I believe it, there it is.
- 2:04:39Speaker 3: Kash Patel.
- 2:04:40Speaker 8: Right there on ice skates. It was like, what are
- 2:04:45Speaker 8: we doing? V, you have to be proactive when it
- 2:04:50Speaker 8: comes to AI, which is why I propose this question
- 2:04:53Speaker 8: to you three. How and what are you going to
- 2:04:57Speaker 8: do to fight back on AI? Because you can no
- 2:05:02Speaker 8: longer just scroll, lap up information. Like, this whole Nepal
- 2:05:07Speaker 8: flooding has got me like a beaten dog, dude. Because
- 2:05:10Speaker 8: I don't know what's real. I have trust issues.
- 2:05:13Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 2:05:13Speaker 8: Just a couple of months ago, I remember when a
- 2:05:15Speaker 8: massive snowstorm was exaggerated greatly through AI images. Now, the
- 2:05:21Speaker 8: real images were still dramatic. But nothing compared to the
- 2:05:25Speaker 8: thing that was embellished. So that does all the damage.
- 2:05:30Speaker 8: So it's almost like we need a condom for digital communication.
- 2:05:35Speaker 3: Can I ask you a question?
- 2:05:36Speaker 2: Because I don't know the answer to this because I've
- 2:05:38Speaker 2: never searched like this. Let's say you're going to Google
- 2:05:41Speaker 2: and you're going to ask it to show you a
- 2:05:43Speaker 2: video or maybe even YouTube or whatever the case may be.
- 2:05:46Speaker 2: Can you ask it to rule out AI content?
- 2:05:49Speaker 3: Would it know?
- 2:05:50Speaker 2: Like if I went to YouTube and said, hey, show
- 2:05:52Speaker 2: me videos of the Nepal floods or whatever, but no
- 2:05:57Speaker 2: AI content. Would it do that? Would it filter it out?
- 2:06:00Speaker 8: Here's the scariest answer I think I can give you.
- 2:06:03Speaker 8: And it just so happens to be the most honest answer.
- 2:06:06Speaker 8: It's going to try its best.
- 2:06:08Speaker 13: Yeah.
- 2:06:09Speaker 3: And its best is already kind of proven that it's
- 2:06:12Speaker 3: not great.
- 2:06:13Speaker 2: Couldn't they make a marker? Isn't the code itself kind
- 2:06:17Speaker 2: of a tell that it's been created by AI? And
- 2:06:20Speaker 2: couldn't they theoretically just kind of ask the machine to
- 2:06:23Speaker 2: look for that code that basically denotes that that's AI-produced?
- 2:06:26Speaker 2: I know that they have watermarks on some stuff on X.
- 2:06:31Speaker 2: It'll actually say it underneath the video or photo.
- 2:06:34Speaker 8: Yeah, so that does exist, but the argument against that is, man,
- 2:06:39Speaker 8: is that a small font? Oh, man, are they fully
- 2:06:42Speaker 8: aware of that? This is an AI video, and they
- 2:06:45Speaker 8: know that people don't know.
- 2:06:46Speaker 2: And it's shaded, by the way. Like, it's not even
- 2:06:49Speaker 2: real dark.
- 2:06:49Speaker 3: It's shaded.
- 2:06:50Speaker 2: So it's getting even hard to see.
- 2:06:52Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 2:06:52Speaker 8: And I just I get worried because I remember one time,
- 2:06:55Speaker 8: you know, my mom and I were talking about something
- 2:06:57Speaker 8: that we saw on the Internet. We start to argue
- 2:06:59Speaker 8: and then we go ahead and I look it up.
- 2:07:01Speaker 8: I go, this never even happened.
- 2:07:03Speaker 22: Yeah.
- 2:07:03Speaker 3: So now we're arguing over stuff that never even happened.
- 2:07:06Speaker 2: Can I ask what your mom say to that? When
- 2:07:08Speaker 2: you explain to her that this isn't real, that just
- 2:07:11Speaker 2: some Trump troll out there is just making this up
- 2:07:13Speaker 2: and putting it out there, does she agree that it
- 2:07:16Speaker 2: is fake? Or does she say, oh, they got me
- 2:07:18Speaker 2: this time? Or what's her response? It's not a great feeling.
- 2:07:22Speaker 8: And that's the whole reason why I even bring it
- 2:07:25Speaker 8: up today is that I empathize with.
- 2:07:27Speaker 2: The feeling of getting got. Hell, I got mugged. I
- 2:07:31Speaker 2: got got too. Everyone has gotten got before.
- 2:07:33Speaker 5: Oh, yeah.
- 2:07:34Speaker 8: But it's on us. Because it's not a police officer
- 2:07:38Speaker 8: or somebody leaving a friendly comment or something. It's your family.
- 2:07:42Speaker 8: It's your closest people that you need to hold each
- 2:07:45Speaker 8: other accountable and have that awkward conversation of going, I
- 2:07:50Speaker 8: am so sorry, Dolores.
- 2:07:52Speaker 3: But that's not real.
- 2:07:53Speaker 2: Yeah, that's not real.
- 2:07:55Speaker 8: Don't pity them and just act like they're not a
- 2:07:57Speaker 8: human being lapping up something false.
- 2:07:59Speaker 2: Because that's a teaching.
- 2:08:00Speaker 3: Moment, is it not?
- 2:08:00Speaker 2: That's like a moment where you can look at your
- 2:08:02Speaker 2: parents and say, hey, look, this is really advanced stuff.
- 2:08:04Speaker 2: It fools me, too, but you've got to be very
- 2:08:05Speaker 2: careful because this is going to happen.
- 2:08:07Speaker 8: Yeah, and it is an interesting time. But props to
- 2:08:12Speaker 8: AI or props to Australia. for banning AI from their
- 2:08:18Speaker 8: award shows because that's the first time I've seen a
- 2:08:22Speaker 8: counterpunch from humanity.
- 2:08:24Speaker 3: When you talk about the footage you're seeing from Nepal,
- 2:08:28Speaker 3: and I mean, we believe everything we're seeing is genuine,
- 2:08:33Speaker 3: but do we get to that point where we start
- 2:08:37Speaker 3: not believing even the genuine stuff and then discounting it
- 2:08:41Speaker 3: where it doesn't have the same impact because you're like, oh,
- 2:08:44Speaker 3: that's probably not real.
- 2:08:45Speaker 8: Jack, a couple months ago, it was a big news story,
- 2:08:48Speaker 8: a viral video of all those kids in the basement
- 2:08:52Speaker 8: of like a Calpa Alpha Delta fraternity house. They were
- 2:08:57Speaker 8: all getting hazed as freshmen. I saw the video. I went,
- 2:09:00Speaker 8: that's not real. Because at that time, police cam footage
- 2:09:04Speaker 8: and that little GoPro wide camera thing, AI was like, oh,
- 2:09:09Speaker 8: people trust this. And camera footage like on your chest,
- 2:09:13Speaker 8: that type of content that's out there, it's grainy, which
- 2:09:17Speaker 8: AI is easier to replicate grainy and out of focus
- 2:09:21Speaker 8: stuff than it is in perfect clarity.
- 2:09:24Speaker 2: Could this actually wind up being a good thing? And
- 2:09:27Speaker 2: let me explain, right? If it gets to the point
- 2:09:30Speaker 2: where it's AI saturation and nobody really can believe or
- 2:09:34Speaker 2: trust what they see on social media, will that drive
- 2:09:37Speaker 2: people back to legitimate news sources to find their information?
- 2:09:41Speaker 2: Could that be the blowback of it? If people get
- 2:09:44Speaker 2: burned enough... Will they stop going to Twitter or Facebook
- 2:09:47Speaker 2: or Instagram or Snapchat for their blanking news and finally
- 2:09:50Speaker 2: go back to organizations that their entire existence depends on
- 2:09:54Speaker 2: them being credible? I mean, could that happen? Could you
- 2:09:57Speaker 2: see it? After a while, you're like, how many times
- 2:09:59Speaker 2: do you have to tell your granny or grandmother? They're like, hey,
- 2:10:01Speaker 2: you should just go to these news agencies where their
- 2:10:04Speaker 2: entire reputation and financial basis is based on. That being
- 2:10:07Speaker 2: right and being true.
- 2:10:08Speaker 3: I get that.
- 2:10:10Speaker 2: And I would be on board with that if it
- 2:10:12Speaker 2: wasn't for this damn attention span that keeps shrinking. But
- 2:10:16Speaker 2: how many times can you get burned even with your
- 2:10:18Speaker 2: attention span? Like if you went to one source, Ross,
- 2:10:20Speaker 2: and out of the 10 stories you pulled from it,
- 2:10:22Speaker 2: you got fooled on six of them.
- 2:10:23Speaker 3: After a while, you're not going back.
- 2:10:24Speaker 8: A couple months ago, I had an awkward confrontation with
- 2:10:27Speaker 8: somebody over it being AI. And it pissed me off
- 2:10:31Speaker 8: that he wasn't pissed off. And he goes, yeah, I mean,
- 2:10:34Speaker 8: I found out. Now I know it's not real. I'm like,
- 2:10:36Speaker 8: why do I care about your brain more than you do?
- 2:10:40Speaker 8: And I'll wrap this up with anybody thinking like, why
- 2:10:43Speaker 8: is this even happening? Why are AI videos happening? And
- 2:10:45Speaker 8: this is probably TMI. And yeah, you can come off
- 2:10:49Speaker 8: as a flex, but let me just give you some
- 2:10:50Speaker 8: behind the scenes, social media, actual numbers, money making wise, right?
- 2:10:56Speaker 8: I posted a clip of the sketch show that we
- 2:10:58Speaker 8: are doing in Mount Dora last This week, Saturday, August 29th.
- 2:11:02Speaker 8: 14 sketches. 14 sketches, thank you. I posted a clip
- 2:11:06Speaker 8: of that show. That show, that clip on Facebook, which
- 2:11:10Speaker 8: I am monetized, is at like 10,000 likes. What's the
- 2:11:14Speaker 8: USD with 10,000 likes? It's a little over $ 500. So
- 2:11:21Speaker 8: when you see a video, right, do that math.
- 2:11:24Speaker 13: Right.
- 2:11:25Speaker 8: I don't know if it's every 10,000 likes or if
- 2:11:27Speaker 8: it's the first 10,000 likes, but I can tell you
- 2:11:29Speaker 8: Facebook is literally paying the people to make this stuff.
- 2:11:34Speaker 7: Yeah.
- 2:11:35Speaker 8: And just now are they trying to pretend like, oh, yeah,
- 2:11:38Speaker 8: we're going to take away the monetization.
- 2:11:40Speaker 13: Right.
- 2:11:41Speaker 8: AI videos that have been dictating your surroundings was created
- 2:11:45Speaker 8: because there was money at the end of it.
- 2:11:48Speaker 22: Yeah, yeah.
- 2:11:48Speaker 8: Props to Australia. Yeah, sniper. Let's go, Australia. Let's follow suit.
- 2:11:55Speaker 8: Those are your Ross thoughts.
- 2:11:56Speaker 1: I'm out.
- 2:11:57Speaker 20: Peace.
- 2:11:57Speaker 2: All right. 407-916-1041. Texas 77031. Back in a sec with
- 2:12:00Speaker 2: more of the Jim Colbert Show.
- 2:12:02Speaker 3: Heading home, driving in the rain and all that.
- 2:12:07Speaker 12: One of the breakfast joints that I've seen popped up
- 2:12:10Speaker 12: a lot is First Watch. I don't know if you
- 2:12:12Speaker 12: guys have heard of First Watch. There's one in Lake Nona,
- 2:12:16Speaker 12: and there's one close to St.
- 2:12:18Speaker 1: Cloud.
- 2:12:18Speaker 12: But for me, one of my favorite places to go
- 2:12:21Speaker 12: when it comes to eating breakfast is this place in St.
- 2:12:24Speaker 12: Cloud called The Village Inn, which has been there for
- 2:12:27Speaker 12: a long time.
- 2:12:29Speaker 2: French silk pie. French silk pie.
- 2:12:31Speaker 3: Get out of here, dude. That was the best.
- 2:12:33Speaker 4: Went to The Village Inn all the time for that.
- 2:12:35Speaker 3: Man! Can I tell you, I never ate in the restaurant. No,
- 2:12:39Speaker 3: it was just French silk pie.
- 2:12:41Speaker 2: But that one that was in Winter Park on Fairbanks
- 2:12:42Speaker 2: or wherever it was for the longest time, we would
- 2:12:44Speaker 2: go in there and get French silk pie. And I
- 2:12:45Speaker 2: will tell you, to this day, one of the best
- 2:12:48Speaker 2: chocolate-based desserts ever.
- 2:12:51Speaker 4: Yeah, we used to go to the one down by
- 2:12:53Speaker 4: SeaWorld when.
- 2:12:54Speaker 3: It was still open.
- 2:12:54Speaker 2: All right, welcome back to the Jim Colbert Show. We're

- 2:13:43Speaker 8: And the cool thing is, as well, is this is
- 2:13:45Speaker 8: something that if you didn't get a chance to make
- 2:13:47Speaker 8: it to Fringe, we know Fringe is difficult to make
- 2:13:48Speaker 8: it to.
- 2:13:49Speaker 2: Maybe it's not your vibe. Maybe you feel a little
- 2:13:51Speaker 2: intimidated because of the overwhelming artistic nature of the people
- 2:13:55Speaker 2: there or whatever.
- 2:13:55Speaker 4: Oh, just the amount of offerings.
- 2:13:57Speaker 3: Exactly.
- 2:13:57Speaker 2: But this is an opportunity for you to see the
- 2:13:59Speaker 2: best of both of those shows in one place. You
- 2:14:01Speaker 2: can't beat that deal, especially at that price. RossComedy.com for tickets.
- 2:14:05Speaker 8: Out of all the things that I have helped make, create, produce, whatever,
- 2:14:10Speaker 8: a viral video, this is it. This is the hardest
- 2:14:13Speaker 8: I've ever worked on a script and jokes.
- 2:14:14Speaker 2: And then also, if you love good food, tomorrow night
- 2:14:16Speaker 2: I will be hosting, along with my friend Jana from
- 2:14:19Speaker 2: XL106. 7 and Magic107. 7, Taste CFL, which is Taste of Central Florida.
- 2:14:23Speaker 2: And basically, it is the creme de la creme of
- 2:14:26Speaker 2: restaurants in the city of Orlando, but 100 of them
- 2:14:28Speaker 2: or so. And the thing we don't talk about enough, though,
- 2:14:30Speaker 2: is the alcohol that's going to be on property. Not
- 2:14:33Speaker 2: only do you have great wine distributors handing out free samples.
- 2:14:36Speaker 2: Great beer companies, spirits companies, it's all there. And on
- 2:14:39Speaker 2: top of the food and drink, they do a lot
- 2:14:41Speaker 2: of cool stuff during the event. They have a thing
- 2:14:43Speaker 2: called the Wine Door.
- 2:14:44Speaker 3: Oh, yeah.
- 2:14:45Speaker 2: And this Wine Door has 100 bottles of wine attached
- 2:14:48Speaker 2: to it, and you can win that. It's like $ 7, 000
- 2:14:50Speaker 2: worth of wine or something.
- 2:14:52Speaker 4: I was thinking, like, where would I even put that?
- 2:14:54Speaker 12: Exactly.
- 2:14:55Speaker 2: And then you would also find the liquor cabinet, which
- 2:14:58Speaker 2: is a cabinet full of top-shelf premium liquors, and you
- 2:15:02Speaker 2: can win that as well. So grab your tickets. It's tastecfl.org, tastecfl.org.

- 2:15:12Speaker 2: not a two-hour event. a lot of these events you
- 2:15:15Speaker 2: pay this money to get into and it's like a

- 2:16:10Speaker 2: to have something that really compliments her.
- 2:16:11Speaker 3: We try to look nice together. Not like you met

- 2:16:18Speaker 2: Well, I'm going to compliment my wife. She's beautiful, and
- 2:16:20Speaker 2: I want to compliment my wife. When she picks out
- 2:16:22Speaker 2: what she wears, I'll try to find something that fits
- 2:16:25Speaker 2: what she's wearing so we have something in common, so
- 2:16:26Speaker 2: we look nice.
- 2:16:27Speaker 3: We take a lot of pictures that night. You've got
- 2:16:29Speaker 3: to compliment your wife. It's with words. What do you mean?
- 2:16:32Speaker 3: You look nice.
- 2:16:33Speaker 2: I tell her that every day of her life. What
- 2:16:34Speaker 2: I'm saying is when I'm next to her, I'm an
- 2:16:37Speaker 2: ogre comparatively, so I want to make sure that I
- 2:16:39Speaker 2: do my best to make her look nice.
- 2:16:41Speaker 8: Yeah, if she's dressed in gold, I don't know what
- 2:16:45Speaker 8: you've got even close to that. We brought you in
- 2:16:50Speaker 8: today to talk about what the public actually thinks about
- 2:16:55Speaker 8: when you guys go out. Everyone's got 911 on speed dial.
- 2:17:03Speaker 8: It is as old as time.
- 2:17:05Speaker 3: Because everyone's been thinking this for a while. That guy
- 2:17:08Speaker 3: drives a van. Has to.
- 2:17:12Speaker 2: Dude, I'm going to say something to you. And I
- 2:17:16Speaker 2: want you to take this to heart. If you call
- 2:17:20Speaker 2: my wife a beast.
- 2:17:21Speaker 3: Again, don't.
- 2:17:27Speaker 2: It's bad news for you, dog. It's bows to the jaw.
- 2:17:32Speaker 2: One more time. One more effing time, dude. Bows to
- 2:17:36Speaker 2: the jaw. It's bows to the jaw. It's this right here.
- 2:17:39Speaker 2: That bony-ass skateboarding bow right to your face.
- 2:17:41Speaker 8: You know, ever since I became a dad, I've kind
- 2:17:44Speaker 8: of understood what a mile in your shoes is like.
- 2:17:49Speaker 8: When I take my son out. to like a restaurant,
- 2:17:52Speaker 8: they go, oh, that's not supposed to be happening. So
- 2:17:59Speaker 8: you're supposed to be locked in a box somewhere.
- 2:18:01Speaker 3: Guy doesn't know what he's doing. Welcome back.
- 2:18:04Speaker 2: So I wanted to read this story. We can end
- 2:18:07Speaker 2: up with this today. Have you guys heard of Oreo Gate?
- 2:18:11Speaker 2: I'm about it.
- 2:18:13Speaker 3: Oreo Gate. Wait, you don't even know.
- 2:18:15Speaker 2: I don't know it, but I like it.
- 2:18:18Speaker 3: Did you take your lunch to school or did you
- 2:18:20Speaker 3: eat at school? I ate at school.
- 2:18:22Speaker 2: Yeah, you take your lunch? Oh, yeah, I took my lunch.
- 2:18:24Speaker 3: Every day? Yes.
- 2:18:25Speaker 2: Really? Like most of your school career? Until high school.
- 2:18:29Speaker 2: High school, yeah, but up until then, you brought your lunch.
- 2:18:31Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah.
- 2:18:32Speaker 4: Deb? Same as Jack.
- 2:18:33Speaker 7: Pretty much throughout school until high school, and then sometimes
- 2:18:36Speaker 7: a brown baguette and sometimes get the grub in your
- 2:18:38Speaker 7: green beans.
- 2:18:38Speaker 2: It was off and on for me. There were certain
- 2:18:41Speaker 2: times when I ate what the school offered. I remember
- 2:18:43Speaker 2: there was a spate of time where my mom– you know,
- 2:18:46Speaker 2: maybe sandwiches and did the whole thing.
- 2:18:47Speaker 8: My mom tried twice and she was like, nah, here's
- 2:18:51Speaker 8: three bucks.
- 2:18:52Speaker 3: Go get a corn dog.
- 2:18:53Speaker 2: This is a, this is a pure 2026 parenting story.
- 2:18:56Speaker 2: As you might imagine, it's already easy to kind of
- 2:18:58Speaker 2: see what happened. So, uh, this mom goes on and
- 2:19:01Speaker 2: these moms have a, uh, a chat group, right? Like
- 2:19:05Speaker 2: Snapchat or some, a text group or whatever. And the
- 2:19:08Speaker 2: one mom goes on and she says, Hey, look, I
- 2:19:12Speaker 2: am asking all the moms in the group not to
- 2:19:16Speaker 2: put Oreos in your kids' lunches because it makes my
- 2:19:20Speaker 2: daughter jealous.
- 2:19:21Speaker 4: Oh, that is so stupid.
- 2:19:23Speaker 3: Oh, that's.
- 2:19:27Speaker 4: Right up there with a participation trophy.
- 2:19:30Speaker 2: She goes, hey, guys, I was just wondering if we
- 2:19:32Speaker 2: could agree not to send things like Oreos, chocolate candy,
- 2:19:35Speaker 2: et cetera, so the kids aren't comparing lunches.
- 2:19:38Speaker 4: They're always going to compare. That's what you do?
- 2:19:40Speaker 2: And you use that as currency. Are you crazy?
- 2:19:42Speaker 3: Exactly.
- 2:19:44Speaker 7: How else were you supposed to get your cigarettes?
- 2:19:46Speaker 3: Yeah, exactly. What you got to do is just trade
- 2:19:49Speaker 3: all your food for the Oreos. This is more of
- 2:19:51Speaker 3: a girl problem. I think it's on the little kid.
- 2:19:53Speaker 3: Is it here predictably? All hell broke loose. The story
- 2:19:58Speaker 3: was involved multiple updates. All the elements of a modern
- 2:20:01Speaker 3: parenting argument. about this.
- 2:20:05Speaker 2: On one side, there's the, quote, crunchy mom, Michelle, who's
- 2:20:08Speaker 2: willing to, quote, snowplow over everyone else's Oreo enjoyment to
- 2:20:13Speaker 2: ensure her precious little child doesn't deal with any negative emotion.
- 2:20:16Speaker 12: Aww.
- 2:20:17Speaker 3: I just became familiar with that term. Crunchy?
- 2:20:20Speaker 2: Yeah, crunchy.
- 2:20:20Speaker 3: Yeah, just this year. Jack, do you know what a
- 2:20:23Speaker 3: crunchy person is? I have not heard about it before today.
- 2:20:26Speaker 3: No way, really?
- 2:20:26Speaker 21: Right?
- 2:20:27Speaker 3: Deb, do you know what a crunchy.
- 2:20:28Speaker 2: A crunchy mom.
- 2:20:29Speaker 3: A crunchy mom. It's always moms. It's always moms.
- 2:20:32Speaker 4: Always, Mom. I've heard it, but I forgot exactly what
- 2:20:34Speaker 4: it refers to.
- 2:20:36Speaker 3: I'm sorry. Yeah, me too. Is that red dye 40? Yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 2:20:39Speaker 3: I'm sorry. How many letters is in that ingredient?
- 2:20:43Speaker 2: How much protein is your kid getting? Is your kid
- 2:20:45Speaker 2: eating carrots? Is your kid exercising? The red dye 40
- 2:20:49Speaker 2: was a bad example. We really shouldn't have that. I
- 2:20:52Speaker 2: just want to throw that out there. I agree with
- 2:20:54Speaker 2: that one, crunchy mom. This is a perfect example of that, right?
- 2:20:57Speaker 2: This is a mom who is really paying attention to
- 2:21:02Speaker 2: what their kid is consuming.
- 2:21:04Speaker 3: And doesn't want to deal with the consequences of her
- 2:21:08Speaker 3: child having a healthier diet.
- 2:21:10Speaker 2: But that also, the crunchy thing also goes in the
- 2:21:14Speaker 2: medication and stuff.
- 2:21:15Speaker 3: Yes, but that just nailed that.
- 2:21:18Speaker 8: You don't want to sign up for the consequences of
- 2:21:21Speaker 8: giving your kid a healthy meal.
- 2:21:23Speaker 3: This is also the side effect. It sucks. You don't
- 2:21:27Speaker 3: get Oreos.
- 2:21:27Speaker 7: Because other parents don't have to help you parent your child.
- 2:21:31Speaker 7: If you choose not to put Oreos in your kid's lunch,
- 2:21:34Speaker 7: then you explain why. You chose not to add Oreos
- 2:21:37Speaker 7: or chocolate candies. You don't make everyone else act like
- 2:21:39Speaker 7: they don't exist.
- 2:21:41Speaker 2: One lady says, look, I'm going to sometimes send Oreos
- 2:21:43Speaker 2: in my kid's lunchbox, even if Ava's mom doesn't let
- 2:21:46Speaker 2: her have them. But if Ava ever comes to my house,
- 2:21:49Speaker 2: I won't serve Oreos and I won't make it weird.
- 2:21:52Speaker 2: That's what she said. That's what one of the moms said,
- 2:21:54Speaker 2: and it's in this group. And it's just kind of
- 2:21:56Speaker 2: funny how this thing blew up because it's now a
- 2:21:59Speaker 2: series of texts and quotes and posts and stuff about
- 2:22:03Speaker 2: how people feel about you having an effect on other
- 2:22:06Speaker 2: people's life when it really has nothing to do with you.
- 2:22:08Speaker 8: And the crunchiness also, everything has a perfect balance. There
- 2:22:13Speaker 8: is a place to be a little crunchy about consuming
- 2:22:16Speaker 8: what's in that before I eat that.
- 2:22:18Speaker 21: Yeah.
- 2:22:19Speaker 3: Great example. You know who I would consider a little crunchy?
- 2:22:22Speaker 3: The perfect amount of crunchy? My wife.
- 2:22:25Speaker 2: Yeah, I would agree with that.
- 2:22:25Speaker 3: She's a vegan. She cares.
- 2:22:27Speaker 8: She's trying her best, but there is not a bone
- 2:22:31Speaker 8: in her body that would ever interject into a, please
- 2:22:34Speaker 8: stop sending Oreos. I don't even think the Oreo thing is...
- 2:22:38Speaker 8: Technically considered crunchy, more just like bad parenting. The crunchy
- 2:22:42Speaker 8: part would be like, you know, it's bad for you. Theoretically,
- 2:22:46Speaker 8: at four, five, six years old, you should be eating
- 2:22:48Speaker 8: sleeves of Oreos, but I don't think anybody should be
- 2:22:50Speaker 8: doing that. When my wife first became a vegan, I
- 2:22:53Speaker 8: want to say she gained like 15, 20 pounds. Because
- 2:22:57Speaker 8: all she ate was Oreos.
- 2:22:58Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 2:22:59Speaker 19: Oh, really?
- 2:22:59Speaker 3: Oreos are vegan. Is it really?
- 2:23:01Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 2:23:02Speaker 2: Wow, that filling is vegan?
- 2:23:04Speaker 3: I will, yeah. That's kind of scary, right?
- 2:23:05Speaker 2: Yeah, because it's, oh, yeah, it is. It's vegetable oil. Actually,
- 2:23:09Speaker 2: it's shortening is all it is. It's sweetened shortening. That's
- 2:23:13Speaker 2: exactly what it is, which is all vegetable-based. You're absolutely right.
- 2:23:18Speaker 17: Yeah, yeah.
- 2:23:18Speaker 3: I want to say it's Oreos.
- 2:23:19Speaker 2: How crazy. By the way, Oreo.
- 2:23:21Speaker 3: They have Oreo vegans. Yes.
- 2:23:25Speaker 2: By the way, Oreo checked in on this, and they said, quote,
- 2:23:28Speaker 2: Oreo gate was not on my bingo card for 2026.
- 2:23:30Speaker 3: They had.
- 2:23:33Speaker 2: No idea that they would be in the middle of
- 2:23:35Speaker 2: a controversy, and the product itself isn't the problem.
- 2:23:38Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 2:23:38Speaker 3: It has nothing to do with Oreos. It's these moms. Well,
- 2:23:44Speaker 3: it does in a little bit, maybe indirectly, because it's unhealthy,
- 2:23:48Speaker 3: which I assume is the reason that Little Ava doesn't
- 2:23:52Speaker 3: isn't allowed to have it.
- 2:23:53Speaker 2: Yeah, but I mean, everything in moderation. I mean, if
- 2:23:56Speaker 2: Friday is your lunchbox special and you get an Oreo
- 2:24:00Speaker 2: on Friday because it's the end of the week, I mean,
- 2:24:02Speaker 2: that ain't killing nobody.
- 2:24:02Speaker 3: I'm the kid who's, the best part of my day
- 2:24:04Speaker 3: was if I had a snack pack pudding in my lunch. Oh,
- 2:24:07Speaker 3: come on now. I know all about that. And you
- 2:24:10Speaker 3: cut yourself on that.
- 2:24:11Speaker 17: Oh, yeah.
- 2:24:12Speaker 3: Did you guys get that mixed fruit thing sometimes too? Occasionally, yeah. Yeah,
- 2:24:15Speaker 3: that's the best. It was good. That syrup is enough to... Oh,
- 2:24:18Speaker 3: that's a snort of that. Yeah, give you that charge. Sugar, dude.
- 2:24:21Speaker 3: You got one cherry in those. Sometimes it's half a cherry.
- 2:24:25Speaker 3: How did Del Monte look at fruit and go, how
- 2:24:27Speaker 3: can we make this bad for him? Let's bet it's
- 2:24:30Speaker 3: swim and syrup. We were just talking about the fruit cup. Oh, God,
- 2:24:36Speaker 3: I forgot what I was talking about.
- 2:24:37Speaker 8: I got made fun of because I brought tapioca, and
- 2:24:39Speaker 8: I was really defensive over my tapioca pudding.
- 2:24:42Speaker 3: And, dude, I got flamed in middle school. Did you really? Yeah, man.
- 2:24:46Speaker 3: They called me a weirdo. It was bad. It goes chocolate, vanilla,
- 2:24:50Speaker 3: and then there's 10 other flavors, and then teppanyaki. It
- 2:24:54Speaker 3: had me yelling at the end of an argument going,
- 2:24:56Speaker 3: I like the lumps. Oh, come on, not again. It's terrible.
- 2:25:02Speaker 3: Like rice pudding. It's good.
- 2:25:04Speaker 2: It says your Oreo gate has all the trappings of
- 2:25:06Speaker 2: good viral content, low stakes, high relatability. Escalating conflict and emotion,
- 2:25:11Speaker 2: identifiable heroes and villains, human and episodic suspense.
- 2:25:16Speaker 3: It's the greatest.
- 2:25:17Speaker 2: Each installment or post raises the stakes to something else.
- 2:25:25Speaker 2: And apparently this is a thing. People are following this
- 2:25:27Speaker 2: story online as if it was produced by Netflix.
- 2:25:30Speaker 8: See, I already know I'm going to disagree so many
- 2:25:33Speaker 8: things with my wife over parenting. I look forward to
- 2:25:37Speaker 8: all of them, but school lunch, packed lunch... Like, school
- 2:25:41Speaker 8: lunch is millennial hose water. You guys got hose water
- 2:25:45Speaker 8: from the 80s. I think school lunches is what will
- 2:25:48Speaker 8: make you... That's like throwing dirt in a cup.
- 2:25:50Speaker 3: Yeah, dude, I don't know that your generation has a
- 2:25:52Speaker 3: drinking from the hose. No.
- 2:25:54Speaker 8: Dude, these chicken sandwiches that I was eating and consuming...
- 2:25:59Speaker 8: They had to have something in them that was.
- 2:26:02Speaker 3: Not chicken? Yeah, not chicken.
- 2:26:03Speaker 2: I don't know what it was. But some school lunches, man.
- 2:26:06Speaker 2: Do not ever read anything that... When you get a
- 2:26:09Speaker 2: chicken sandwich, especially from Burger King or any chicken product
- 2:26:11Speaker 2: that is like that, never read the back of that thing.
- 2:26:14Speaker 3: Don't do that. Because then you... It's the most non...
- 2:26:18Speaker 3: It's like, yeah, includes... Non-appetizing. Includes mechanically separated rib meat. Yeah, yeah.
- 2:26:26Speaker 3: Enjoy it.
- 2:26:28Speaker 8: Yeah, that's why crunchy moms are also on to something
- 2:26:31Speaker 8: a little bit. It's just like you should kind of
- 2:26:34Speaker 8: every now and then be critical of an ingredient you
- 2:26:37Speaker 8: can't say.
- 2:26:37Speaker 3: For your child.
- 2:26:39Speaker 2: That's the separation, and that's the crunchy thing that drives
- 2:26:43Speaker 2: this entire drama. Look, if she would have just said
- 2:26:45Speaker 2: this to her kid, she could have just said to
- 2:26:47Speaker 2: her kid, hey, look, other kids and parents may give
- 2:26:49Speaker 2: their kids Oreos. We don't do that here. We do
- 2:26:52Speaker 2: Oreos on the weekends. So, I mean, you're going to
- 2:26:54Speaker 2: get Oreos. Oreos are a problem solved. But, you know,
- 2:26:56Speaker 2: that's their mom, and that's how they do things, and
- 2:26:58Speaker 2: we don't do things like that.
- 2:26:59Speaker 3: That's it. Problem solved.
- 2:27:01Speaker 2: You don't have to ask every other mom to do
- 2:27:02Speaker 2: something you do to make your kid feel okay. That
- 2:27:05Speaker 2: just leads the kid to believe that that's how life
- 2:27:06Speaker 2: is going to be, and it's not.
- 2:27:08Speaker 8: Help me out here. I'm at a bonfire with a
- 2:27:09Speaker 8: bunch of people I don't know. It's a friend, hypothetically
- 2:27:12Speaker 8: speaking here, right? What should I not bring up more?
- 2:27:15Speaker 8: parenting techniques or politics what is the spicier out of
- 2:27:21Speaker 8: the two oh my god a room full of young.
- 2:27:24Speaker 2: Parents oh my goodness uh i would say parenting is
- 2:27:27Speaker 2: probably going to be the hotter stove.
- 2:27:29Speaker 3: Yeah group yeah i think you're safer with politics.
- 2:27:31Speaker 2: I think politics is safer there because politics is pretty
- 2:27:33Speaker 2: cut and dry now i mean right now you're picking
- 2:27:36Speaker 2: a side. There is no, well, you know, some of
- 2:27:38Speaker 2: these guys have a good point. You know, it's not
- 2:27:39Speaker 2: that's not really happening right now in politics. But in parenting,
- 2:27:42Speaker 2: that is a mega hyper personal scenario. By the way,
- 2:27:46Speaker 2: it's generational because you're not only ragging on how they're parenting.
- 2:27:49Speaker 2: More than likely, they get those parenting tips from their
- 2:27:52Speaker 2: mom and dad. So now you're taking shots at their
- 2:27:54Speaker 2: generationally and how that family parents.
- 2:27:56Speaker 8: I know there's a lot of people out there. If
- 2:27:58Speaker 8: someone gets a shot at their parents, parenting technique, they'd
- 2:28:01Speaker 8: be like, you're onto something.
- 2:28:02Speaker 2: It didn't work out.
- 2:28:03Speaker 8: For me either.
- 2:28:04Speaker 3: Exactly.
- 2:28:04Speaker 2: Like I put the full brakes on my dad's there. Anyway,
- 2:28:07Speaker 2: we store, we steer away from that. Deb, what do
- 2:28:10Speaker 2: you got coming up for you already here?
- 2:28:11Speaker 7: First attorneys want the Tate brothers out of Miami federal detention.
- 2:28:15Speaker 7: The NFL eliminates a game that's been hosted in Orlando
- 2:28:18Speaker 7: multiple times. And the, The Florida State Fair is ranked
- 2:28:22Speaker 7: among the best. We'll talk about that next during You
- 2:28:24Speaker 7: Heard It Here First.
- 2:28:25Speaker 3: You got it.
- 2:28:25Speaker 2: Let's take a little break. We'll come back and do
- 2:28:27Speaker 2: Debs News and get the hell out of here on
- 2:28:28Speaker 2: a Thursday.
- 2:28:29Speaker 1: Radio 104.1. It's time for a Talk Back Purge on
- 2:28:39Speaker 1: The Jim Colbert Show.
- 2:28:42Speaker 15: Hey, guys.
- 2:28:43Speaker 21: I am totally obsessed with Oreo Gate. I've been watching
- 2:28:46Speaker 21: this Instagram from last Tuesday. where she had only 30,000 followers.
- 2:28:53Speaker 21: Now she has 160,000 followers.
- 2:28:56Speaker 3: Crazy.
- 2:28:56Speaker 21: All from OreoGate. It's so much fun. It's the news
- 2:29:01Speaker 21: we need right now.
- 2:29:02Speaker 2: Truthfully.
- 2:29:03Speaker 21: And also, she won't say why she hates Oreos, which
- 2:29:06Speaker 21: has made it a whole mystery thing, too. It's crazy.
- 2:29:09Speaker 21: I love it. I am totally obsessed.
- 2:29:11Speaker 3: It's super cool.
- 2:29:13Speaker 5: Hey, Jimmy and crew.
- 2:29:15Speaker 3: Happy Thursday.
- 2:29:16Speaker 5: Happy weekend eve. Hey, if you happen to be sitting
- 2:29:19Speaker 5: around on Sunday and want to find a good book,
- 2:29:22Speaker 5: I strongly suggest Tabor's Medical Dictionary. If nothing else, it's
- 2:29:28Speaker 5: a good one to have around the office. You know,
- 2:29:30Speaker 5: you can diagnose stuff. But turn to the very tail
- 2:29:34Speaker 5: end of that book. It's got all phobias. Phobophobia. Virophobias.
- 2:29:40Speaker 3: But anticipatory grief. Bummer. Uh-oh, the purge got him. Yeah, yeah.
- 2:29:47Speaker 3: Phobia of cut-off talkbacks. Talkback-a-obia.
- 2:29:52Speaker 13: Hey, guys.
- 2:29:53Speaker 16: Did y'all see that Maine Coon kitten?
- 2:29:56Speaker 22: Yeah.
- 2:29:56Speaker 3: With 29 toes?
- 2:29:58Speaker 16: It's so cute.
- 2:29:59Speaker 3: It was just born. And, well, I bet you that
- 2:30:03Speaker 3: little bugger can swim. Man, my voice is hell. It
- 2:30:09Speaker 3: is terrible.
- 2:30:10Speaker 4: And it was getting better for a while. Yeah, kitten
- 2:30:15Speaker 4: born in Wisconsin.
- 2:30:16Speaker 3: Hi, crew.
- 2:30:16Speaker 6: It's me again about Judy and life imaging. I was
- 2:30:21Speaker 6: kind of nervous, but I wanted to elaborate. I do
- 2:30:24Speaker 6: have a couple issues that I found there, and I'm
- 2:30:28Speaker 6: going to get them taken care of.
- 2:30:29Speaker 2: Yeah, that's the goal.
- 2:30:30Speaker 3: So please, everybody go.
- 2:30:32Speaker 2: You never know what you've got going on.
- 2:30:34Speaker 3: Got to go and never know. Thank you, everyone. That's right.
- 2:30:36Speaker 3: Thank you, Judy, and life imaging, and thank you, Real Radio.
- 2:30:39Speaker 5: Sweet.
- 2:30:40Speaker 2: I love hearing that.
- 2:30:41Speaker 4: Man, I can't believe I'm still depressed after Dolly Parton dying.
- 2:30:45Speaker 4: I guess I'm having postpartum depression.
- 2:30:47Speaker 3: Oh, man.
- 2:30:49Speaker 2: That's good.
- 2:30:50Speaker 4: He gets credit for that.
- 2:30:51Speaker 3: You know, we haven't heard from the sniper in a bit.
- 2:30:53Speaker 14: I know.
- 2:30:53Speaker 4: I hope she's okay.
- 2:30:54Speaker 3: Did she call this week at all? No, I think
- 2:30:56Speaker 3: she's on vacation. Oh, she may be on vacation. Damn it.
- 2:30:59Speaker 2: No, I'm hoping. How dare she not tell us? I
- 2:31:02Speaker 2: have a super short, amazing Dolly Parton story. It's less
- 2:31:07Speaker 2: than 40 seconds. I've been wanting to share it since
- 2:31:09Speaker 2: the news has crossed. My great friend, best friend in
- 2:31:12Speaker 2: stand-up comedy, his name is Sean Finnerty. He travels full
- 2:31:16Speaker 2: time on cruise ships doing comedy shows. One of his
- 2:31:19Speaker 2: jokes starts off by asking every audience the same question.
- 2:31:24Speaker 2: Who do you guys think is the best American? Who's
- 2:31:26Speaker 2: everyone's favorite American? And he went on to tell me
- 2:31:29Speaker 2: that it's Dolly Parton.
- 2:31:31Speaker 8: Unequivocally the every audience came to the same realization it's
- 2:31:36Speaker 8: dolly parton to the point where he could not tell
- 2:31:39Speaker 8: me who is second place no way really interesting that
- 2:31:43Speaker 8: much of an objective truth that the greatest living american
- 2:31:47Speaker 8: was dolly parton at the very least on cruise ships Yeah,
- 2:31:52Speaker 8: when she passed, we were trying to figure out, and
- 2:31:54Speaker 8: nobody brought up Oprah.
- 2:31:55Speaker 2: And I thought Oprah should be in the realm there.
- 2:31:57Speaker 2: I think Oprah is a great American that's done a
- 2:31:59Speaker 2: lot of great things with a great story coming from poverty,
- 2:32:03Speaker 2: not listening to the static, just getting to it, and
- 2:32:06Speaker 2: creating an absolute industry on her own, 100%. That's legit.
- 2:32:10Speaker 2: Let's do You Heard It Here first.
- 2:32:13Speaker 1: It's time for You Heard It Here First on The
- 2:32:16Speaker 1: Jim Colbert Show.
- 2:32:17Speaker 7: Attorneys for Andrew and Tristan Tate were at a hearing
- 2:32:21Speaker 7: in a Miami federal court as they fight to get
- 2:32:23Speaker 7: the social media influencers released on bond. Attorney Joseph McBride
- 2:32:27Speaker 7: says the brothers have complied with court requirements in Romania
- 2:32:31Speaker 7: and have not avoided the allegations against them.
- 2:32:33Speaker 4: Oh, but that's not all.
- 2:32:35Speaker 3: They have never ran away from the law. They have
- 2:32:37Speaker 3: leaned into the court process everywhere that they go. They're
- 2:32:40Speaker 3: innocent men, they're free men, they're good men.
- 2:32:43Speaker 7: Yeah, you could have just stopped when he said they complied.
- 2:32:45Speaker 7: But the brothers are fighting extradition to the UK, where
- 2:32:48Speaker 7: they face similar charges to what they faced in Romania.
- 2:32:52Speaker 3: All right, the NFL is eliminating the.
- 2:32:54Speaker 7: Pro Bowl game while keeping in the annual honor for
- 2:32:57Speaker 7: the league's top players. League executives presented the change to
- 2:33:00Speaker 7: team owners on Wednesday after years of experimenting with tackle, flag, football,
- 2:33:04Speaker 7: and skills competitions. 88 players will continue to be selected
- 2:33:09Speaker 7: through voting by fans, players, and coaches. But Alternates will
- 2:33:12Speaker 7: no longer be recognized. Pro bowlers will instead be invited
- 2:33:16Speaker 7: to Los Angeles for an in-person celebration in February. NFL
- 2:33:20Speaker 7: officials said the change aims to restore meaning to the
- 2:33:23Speaker 7: honor after growing numbers of replacement players.
- 2:33:26Speaker 4: And declining interest in the event.
- 2:33:28Speaker 3: Yeah, I think that's a good idea, actually.
- 2:33:29Speaker 2: For one thing, also another opportunity for them to get injured,
- 2:33:32Speaker 2: and it meant it mean nothing, you know? And I
- 2:33:35Speaker 2: think just the accolade of being a Pro Bowler really
- 2:33:37Speaker 2: is all anybody pays attention to anyway.
- 2:33:39Speaker 3: And depending on when they do it, they might actually
- 2:33:41Speaker 3: also get the Super Bowl team Pro Bowlers to take
- 2:33:45Speaker 3: part in it as well, as opposed to just passing
- 2:33:48Speaker 3: because they're in the Super Bowl.
- 2:33:50Speaker 4: Exactly.
- 2:33:50Speaker 7: All right, the Florida State Fair is considered one of
- 2:33:53Speaker 7: the best in the country.
- 2:33:54Speaker 4: Where do you think it ranks?
- 2:33:56Speaker 5: Eight.
- 2:33:58Speaker 13: Three.
- 2:33:59Speaker 4: Stop right there.
- 2:34:02Speaker 3: Three.
- 2:34:05Speaker 2: I meant three.
- 2:34:06Speaker 13: Jack?
- 2:34:08Speaker 3: No, give yourself a... That's for me.
- 2:34:11Speaker 4: And for me.
- 2:34:12Speaker 3: And that's for the two of them. We tied.
- 2:34:16Speaker 7: The Florida State Fair is considered one of the top
- 2:34:19Speaker 7: three state fairs in the entire country. That's according to
- 2:34:23Speaker 7: a new analysis by Ace.com. The fair in Tampa received
- 2:34:26Speaker 7: high marks for its Google search interest, social media activity,
- 2:34:30Speaker 7: visitor ratings, and admission prices. Minnesota State Fair came in
- 2:34:34Speaker 7: first place, followed by the Iowa State Fair. And you
- 2:34:38Speaker 7: heard it here first on the Jim Colbert Show.
- 2:34:40Speaker 3: Thank you.
- 2:34:41Speaker 2: I appreciate that very much. Jack, who do we have
- 2:34:44Speaker 2: to thank today? I'm getting my ass handed to me
- 2:34:48Speaker 2: for the Oprah thing. Is that a bad take, Oprah?
- 2:34:51Speaker 3: No, not at all. Not at all. If people are
- 2:34:56Speaker 3: complaining about equating her to Dolly Parton, we're not doing that.
- 2:34:59Speaker 3: We're talking about legendary Americans.
- 2:35:03Speaker 4: Well, we want to thank Mills Air for saucing up
- 2:35:05Speaker 4: our Thursdays.
