Speaker 1: Awesome.
1:14
Speaker 3: Hey, good Monday, huh? Yep. Thanks for covering for me
1:17
Speaker 3: on Friday. I deeply appreciate that. That was not the plan.
1:19
Speaker 4: No, I know, I know, but just the way the
1:21
Speaker 4: scheduling for the event that you were emceeing worked out
1:24
Speaker 4: and the timing of the show, it didn't make.
1:26
Speaker 3: Sense for you. I was literally, as you were talking,
1:31
Speaker 3: I was like, 10, 9, 8. Yeah, an amazing event,
1:36
Speaker 3: by the way. It was a record event that evening. Really?
1:38
Speaker 6: Oh, wow.
1:39
Speaker 3: This is Taste Central Florida, right? Yeah, Taste Central Florida
1:42
Speaker 3: was a record event. The cool thing is, is every
1:44
Speaker 3: single penny raised goes straight to Second Harvest Food Bank
1:47
Speaker 3: and Coalition for the Homeless. And the goal this year
1:50
Speaker 3: was $ 375, 000, right? That's a pretty good goal, right? Wow,
1:53
Speaker 3: that's a lofty goal. Dude, that's a lofty goal. Here's
1:57
Speaker 3: the great thing. This has been an odd, like, you know,
2:01
Speaker 3: we hear the economy is what the economy is. People
2:04
Speaker 3: are struggling, but, you know, there are some aspects of
2:06
Speaker 3: it that is working out because, man, we raised $ 401, 000.
2:08
Speaker 1: Wow!
2:08
Speaker 3: So not only did we break that record, the cool
2:14
Speaker 3: thing is, is when I stepped into the building... and
2:16
Speaker 3: grabbed the mic, they came up to me and said,
2:17
Speaker 3: by the way, we're only like 20K short for making
2:20
Speaker 3: this thing happen tonight. It has been a banner year,
2:23
Speaker 3: which is absolutely as good as it gets.
2:25
Speaker 4: Well, the good thing is that for those who can,
2:28
Speaker 4: it means a lot to step out for those who can't.
2:31
Speaker 3: It really does.
2:31
Speaker 4: And the Second Harvest Food Bank, I don't know if
2:33
Speaker 4: you guys have noticed, but I'm getting mailers from them,
2:36
Speaker 4: which is not normally something that you see.
2:39
Speaker 1: Right.
2:39
Speaker 5: The need is so great.
2:40
Speaker 3: Got to see Greg Higgerson, one of our favorite people
2:42
Speaker 3: in Orlando. I think, you know, Scott just put out
2:44
Speaker 3: his list of the 10 people that make Orlando a
2:46
Speaker 3: better place to live. I know two people on that list,
2:49
Speaker 3: but last year or the year before, I remember. Me
2:50
Speaker 3: and Greg? Yeah, Greg Higgerson was on that list. I
2:52
Speaker 3: couldn't agree more. You know, one of the things I
2:55
Speaker 3: try to constantly remind people about Second Harvest and how
2:58
Speaker 3: important it is, is people think it's just a food
3:00
Speaker 3: bank in downtown Orlando for Orlandoans, but You know, one
3:04
Speaker 3: of the most amazing parts of that property is how
3:07
Speaker 3: many other food banks it supplies. So if you're going
3:10
Speaker 3: to the St. Cloud Food Bank, Leesburg Food Bank, many
3:13
Speaker 3: of the food banks in our area in Lake County
3:15
Speaker 3: are fed by, for lack of a better term, Second Harvest.
3:19
Speaker 5: They're kind of like the blood bank, but for food.
3:21
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, yeah. They're the hub, the center hub of
3:23
Speaker 3: the wheel. They really are. And all the spokes go
3:25
Speaker 3: out to the other food banks. That's why it's so
3:26
Speaker 3: important that we really focus on raising for them because
3:30
Speaker 3: for all the local communities that can't meet the requirements
3:33
Speaker 3: of their food banks, and sometimes it's tough in rural areas,
3:37
Speaker 3: the mustard seed will subsidize what they're short, or not
3:40
Speaker 3: mustard seed, I always say that, Second Harvest, and they'll
3:42
Speaker 3: make sure that they're getting the food they need, which
3:44
Speaker 3: is awesome. The event's amazing. Jana, Our friend from XL
3:48
Speaker 3: 106.7 and Magic 107.7, whom I've known for 25 years,
3:52
Speaker 3: is one of the best ever. She's a complete class act.
3:55
Speaker 3: And the entire environment was great. So many people who
3:58
Speaker 3: listened to the show walked up and said hi. A
4:01
Speaker 3: number of them, and it's getting to this point, when
4:02
Speaker 3: you're on there this long. You know, people remind you
4:05
Speaker 3: how long they've been listening to you. Oh, that's my favorite.
4:07
Speaker 3: Not really understanding the impact that it's going to have
4:10
Speaker 3: on you.
4:10
Speaker 5: I've listened to you since I was a kid.
4:12
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. I was in school.
4:16
Speaker 3: This dude who's like 6'3, this burly-looking blanker came up
4:19
Speaker 3: to me and he goes, man, I don't know if
4:20
Speaker 3: you know that I used to ride on my dad's
4:22
Speaker 3: shoulders and listen to you. And I had to look
4:23
Speaker 3: up to this guy to hear that. He had gray
4:27
Speaker 3: in his beard. I'm like, dude, stop. What are you doing?
4:29
Speaker 5: Exactly.
4:32
Speaker 3: A fully amazing experience, though, and they make it so easy.
4:37
Speaker 3: It goes by so fast and so much fun. And
4:40
Speaker 3: I will tell you something else. This is a blank
4:44
Speaker 3: plug for a property. This is no joke. I don't
4:47
Speaker 3: know if they spend any money with our cluster. If not,
4:48
Speaker 3: they should. Man, if you've got a family and you're
4:51
Speaker 3: looking to do something kind of fun and you don't
4:54
Speaker 3: have those Disney or Universal dollars, man, I've got to
4:58
Speaker 3: tell you, this World Marriott Orlando Marriott Center or whatever
5:03
Speaker 3: the order is, we always just call it the World Marriott.
5:07
Speaker 1: Right.
5:08
Speaker 3: Orlandoans have known it for that for many years. I've
5:11
Speaker 3: stayed on property one time before, but it was such
5:12
Speaker 3: a brief stay. it really was, you know, kind of,
5:15
Speaker 3: you couldn't really tell. Went out there for a party,
5:18
Speaker 3: got there like, you know, eight o'clock at night, did
5:19
Speaker 3: the party, got up, and I was out of there
5:21
Speaker 3: at seven o'clock the next morning for a thing. So
5:23
Speaker 3: we really never got to experience the property. Man, they
5:26
Speaker 3: have a water park. They have family planning in there.
5:29
Speaker 3: You could go in, get a room.
5:31
Speaker 5: Family planning.
5:32
Speaker 3: Yeah, dude. Now, listen. They have an entire board that
5:35
Speaker 3: if you have kids and you come and you stay
5:36
Speaker 3: at that resort, they have games and they have an arcade.
5:40
Speaker 3: They have an entire program. If you're on a cruise
5:43
Speaker 3: that will take your kids and do cool stuff, crafting
5:46
Speaker 3: and all kinds of games and stuff, man.
5:48
Speaker 5: So you need an itinerary for family.
5:50
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
5:50
Speaker 5: Not where families go.
5:52
Speaker 3: I thought they planned for when you can assess. Exactly.
5:55
Speaker 5: Family planning.
5:55
Speaker 3: I'm like, damn. That's... All right, this is West Tower 4.
5:59
Speaker 3: It's your turn. That's quite full service. So amazing, though.
6:03
Speaker 3: It really was awesome. We had a great time. Very
6:05
Speaker 3: affordable for what you get. If you took your kids
6:08
Speaker 3: out there, they just hit that water park for two
6:09
Speaker 3: days in a row. Because when you get your room,
6:11
Speaker 3: you get water park passes.
6:12
Speaker 7: Right.
6:13
Speaker 3: And you just frolic around that damn water park for
6:15
Speaker 3: two or three days and have a good time just
6:16
Speaker 3: doing that.
6:17
Speaker 4: Well, so many of our resorts have to compete with
6:20
Speaker 4: the water parks and the theme parks to get you
6:22
Speaker 4: to stay there.
6:23
Speaker 3: Absolutely. A couple other things that happened this weekend. I
6:26
Speaker 3: know we're going to get to 14 sketches. I'm dying
6:28
Speaker 3: to hear about it. I have an inside word there
6:30
Speaker 3: that wound up being part of the show. Yeah. She
6:34
Speaker 3: didn't even mean to do that.
6:35
Speaker 4: None of us knew that that was going to be
6:37
Speaker 4: part of the show, but everyone played along really, really good.
6:40
Speaker 3: So I went to this thing called the Serial Killer
6:42
Speaker 3: Speakeasy that happened in DeLand this weekend at this place
6:46
Speaker 3: called North Square.
6:47
Speaker 5: I would have been jealous of that.
6:49
Speaker 3: You're a freak, too.
6:50
Speaker 5: I know, but I know that.
6:51
Speaker 3: But it's kind of funny. I'll tell you the story.
6:53
Speaker 3: So it's in an old... church is basically what it
6:56
Speaker 3: is where they've taken the church and it's beautiful by
6:59
Speaker 3: the way and it's just a it's a church complex
7:01
Speaker 3: it's one of the churches that had like a sunday
7:03
Speaker 3: school or a day school attached to it so it's
7:05
Speaker 3: brick it's beautiful and it's now been turned into like
7:07
Speaker 3: a wedding or events venue right and uh that this
7:11
Speaker 3: speakeasy thing is four actors and what they did was
7:14
Speaker 3: is they put together this show that tells the story
7:16
Speaker 3: of four different serial killers jeffrey dahmer John Wayne Gacy,
7:20
Speaker 3: Ed Gein, and Ted Bundy, right? Okay. So we thought,
7:24
Speaker 3: because when you go online, it tells you kind of
7:26
Speaker 3: what it is, but it doesn't really kind of tell
7:28
Speaker 3: you exactly what it is, right? So we're just kind
7:29
Speaker 3: of rolling the dice. We're into that kind of stuff.
7:31
Speaker 3: It was kind of fun. All the shows were selling out.
7:34
Speaker 3: All the reviews were great. It was not great. Oh, no.
7:38
Speaker 3: It was because here's what I.
7:39
Speaker 5: Assume crime scene photos during dinner.
7:42
Speaker 3: Nothing, nothing like that. No food. But they did serve cocktails.
7:44
Speaker 7: Right.
7:45
Speaker 3: And the cocktails were full size cocktails. You got four
7:47
Speaker 3: of them. No food, no food. And it wasn't a
7:49
Speaker 3: food thing. But there was like 200 people. There was
7:52
Speaker 3: like a theater set up. It wasn't like an intimate
7:54
Speaker 3: thing like we kind of thought it was going to be.
7:56
Speaker 3: It was like a couple hundred people. And they sold
7:58
Speaker 3: out like eight shows. Oh, wow. It was incredible. Like
8:01
Speaker 3: they'd sold it quite well. But it just didn't really
8:03
Speaker 3: pay off for people who were really into it. Most
8:05
Speaker 3: people would have already known all the stuff that they did.
8:08
Speaker 3: They had actors kind of playing out the characters of
8:10
Speaker 3: the people telling their own story. And it really wasn't
8:12
Speaker 3: that engaging at all, actually. And here's one of the
8:15
Speaker 3: reasons why. When these people book these things across the nation,
8:18
Speaker 3: they just book the venue. They don't understand. It's a venue, right?
8:22
Speaker 5: Yeah.
8:23
Speaker 3: They don't know there may be other things happening. Let's
8:27
Speaker 3: say like a wedding in the basement right below the venue. Interesting.
8:32
Speaker 3: So the guy comes up, and he's doing the Ted
8:35
Speaker 3: Bundy thing, right? He goes, hi, I'm Ted Bundy, and blah, blah, blah, blah.
8:38
Speaker 3: As I'm drilling the hole into this young man's head,
8:42
Speaker 3: and he's trying to get all the way. And it's
8:44
Speaker 3: very quiet.
8:45
Speaker 5: That would actually be Dahmer.
8:46
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, Dahmer, whatever. Blah, blah, blah. He's doing all
8:48
Speaker 3: this other stuff. And then in the background, all you
8:50
Speaker 3: hear is, move it to the left. Move it to
8:53
Speaker 3: the right.
8:54
Speaker 8: Ha, ha, ha.
8:58
Speaker 3: These guys, you can see them dying inside. Because they
9:03
Speaker 3: had no idea there was a wedding planned. And below there,
9:06
Speaker 3: it was like every other time they're trying to tell
9:10
Speaker 3: these scary-ass stories, all you're hearing is Bobby Brown. All
9:14
Speaker 3: you're hearing is Young MC.
9:16
Speaker 5: Electric slide.
9:17
Speaker 3: Oh, my God. It was so funny. And you could
9:20
Speaker 3: literally see them dying as it was going on because
9:22
Speaker 3: they weren't breaking character. They were like professional actors, and
9:25
Speaker 3: they were trying to pull this thing off. But it
9:27
Speaker 3: was so funny because they were trying to pull it off,
9:29
Speaker 3: and the background was an entire– and I mean the
9:32
Speaker 3: bass was destroying it. Doo-doo. It was so funny. It
9:38
Speaker 3: was a good time to get out, and the cocktails
9:39
Speaker 3: were good, but the show was a little wild for me. Well,
9:42
Speaker 3: at least you didn't spend good money on it. No, well, yeah,
9:46
Speaker 3: $ 70 a person.
9:47
Speaker 1: Oh!
9:47
Speaker 3: Would have been cheaper to see 14 sketches. Can I
9:50
Speaker 3: tell you, I wish we would have come to that.
9:52
Speaker 3: But my wife made plans for this like months ago,
9:54
Speaker 3: and I totally forgot it on my calendar.
9:56
Speaker 5: Hey, listen, kudos.
9:57
Speaker 3: Well, I've never heard that one before.
9:58
Speaker 2: Yeah, I know.
9:59
Speaker 3: It's just my luck.
10:00
Speaker 9: Story.
10:00
Speaker 3: By the way, Seth's Puffs and Pints, September 26th, Jim. Yeah,
10:03
Speaker 3: I got it down.
10:03
Speaker 5: You are going to be there.
10:04
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, going to be there. Yeah, yeah, I'm going
10:06
Speaker 3: to be there.
10:07
Speaker 9: Why?
10:07
Speaker 3: Should someone call Tori?
10:08
Speaker 4: No, no, no.
10:08
Speaker 3: I had to tell somebody today I can't make their
10:10
Speaker 3: golf tournament because of it.
10:12
Speaker 10: Oh, really?
10:12
Speaker 7: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
10:13
Speaker 1: All right.
10:14
Speaker 5: No, I just wanted to.
10:14
Speaker 3: I flipped a coin. Don't get all cafty. I'm joking.
10:18
Speaker 5: Well, we're still trying to figure out how you can
10:19
Speaker 5: make it up to us.
10:20
Speaker 1: No.
10:20
Speaker 5: But kudos to Jack, man.
10:23
Speaker 1: Me?
10:23
Speaker 3: Yeah.
10:24
Speaker 4: After 14 sketches, this dude rolled out to a place
10:28
Speaker 4: that we don't want to blow their spot up. But
10:30
Speaker 4: let's just say everybody who heard it was like, you're
10:32
Speaker 4: going where?
10:33
Speaker 1: Yeah.
10:34
Speaker 3: Hey, man, it'd be like you going, you know, I
10:37
Speaker 3: just got done with my LGBTQ parade. I want to
10:39
Speaker 3: go to the double deuce.
10:41
Speaker 4: My husband even called him yesterday just to make sure
10:43
Speaker 4: he hadn't been kidnapped.
10:44
Speaker 3: To a person.
10:45
Speaker 11: When I told him where I was going after 14
10:46
Speaker 11: sketches to a person, they all had this look of like, oh,
10:50
Speaker 11: my God.
10:51
Speaker 3: Do you know about that?
10:52
Speaker 4: Exactly.
10:52
Speaker 3: You're going where? What did I say when you told
10:54
Speaker 3: me you went there? Pretty much. You went there?
10:58
Speaker 12: Right.
10:58
Speaker 8: Exactly.
10:59
Speaker 3: Of all the places you could have gone, you went there?
11:01
Speaker 3: Went there? Good Lord.
11:02
Speaker 5: With his dad, Shaw?
11:03
Speaker 10: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
11:04
Speaker 3: Exactly. And by the way, it was great. I had
11:07
Speaker 3: to find.
11:07
Speaker 11: Matter of fact, I didn't know the owner is a
11:09
Speaker 11: big fan of the station and the news junkie as well.
11:11
Speaker 3: Oh, cool.
11:12
Speaker 13: Yeah.
11:12
Speaker 5: Well, then you're straight up protected, dude.
11:14
Speaker 11: Yeah. No, my wife was singing there. I heard there's
11:19
Speaker 11: a big crowd for 14 sketches.
11:21
Speaker 3: Oh, yeah.
11:22
Speaker 5: Great crowd. Everybody left as happy as they got there.
11:24
Speaker 3: That's awesome.
11:25
Speaker 1: Yeah.
11:25
Speaker 5: Everybody was.
11:26
Speaker 4: I have to say, though, one of my favorite parts
11:28
Speaker 4: of the whole night had nothing to do with the show.
11:31
Speaker 4: It had to do with being backstage with Joel and
11:33
Speaker 4: Ross as we're getting ready to go out. to start
11:36
Speaker 4: the show, and Olivia arrives, and you can't see Miles,
11:39
Speaker 4: but you can tell she's ushering in a tiny human being.
11:42
Speaker 4: Ross goes to the end of the stairs, and all
11:46
Speaker 4: of a sudden, all you.
11:47
Speaker 5: Hear is, da-da!
11:49
Speaker 3: Oh, it was such a heartbreaker. He's so cute. But
11:53
Speaker 3: the show went well. All the sketches were well-received. Everybody
11:56
Speaker 3: got big laughs.
11:56
Speaker 1: Oh, yeah.
11:57
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah. Awesome, man. I'm glad to hear that. Did
11:59
Speaker 3: the little happy hour thing beforehand go off well as well? Like,
12:01
Speaker 3: did people show up for that?
12:02
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah.
12:03
Speaker 11: People were hanging out. When I got there, the lobby
12:05
Speaker 11: was full. We had, you know, Real Radio represented as well.
12:08
Speaker 8: Nice.
12:09
Speaker 11: Shout out to Chris Carson and the City of Mount Dora.
12:12
Speaker 11: They have honored Real Radio on the wall at the
12:14
Speaker 11: Mount Dora Music Hall. There's a shadow box with a
12:17
Speaker 11: With a microphone and a little placard for thanking us
12:22
Speaker 11: for our relationship over the many years.
12:24
Speaker 3: Very nice, man. That's very cool. Very cool. Great weekend.
12:28
Speaker 3: And we're all caught up now. 407-916-1041. Texas 77031. What
12:32
Speaker 3: do you got for news?
12:34
Speaker 4: We're going to talk about Grand Canyon flash flooding leaving
12:38
Speaker 4: over a dozen people missing. Closer to home, NASA postpones
12:41
Speaker 4: a mission piloted by a Central Florida astronaut and, oh.
12:46
Speaker 4: The Chicago Cubs are going to debut a rom-com series
12:51
Speaker 4: on TikTok.
12:52
Speaker 3: Are they really?
12:53
Speaker 5: You heard that right. We'll talk about that and more
12:55
Speaker 5: coming up next during JCS News.
12:56
Speaker 3: You got it. Let's take a little break. We'll come
12:57
Speaker 3: back and get Debs News and continue on with the
12:59
Speaker 3: Jim Colbert Show. Welcome back to the Jim Colbert Show,
13:11
Speaker 3: Radio 104.1. Thanks for tuning in today. We appreciate that, guys.
13:14
Speaker 3: We really do. Hope you had a great weekend. I
13:16
Speaker 3: am Jim. Jack is right over there. And Deb has
13:19
Speaker 3: your news. Let's get it.
13:21
Speaker 8: It's time for JCS News. Wow.
13:24
Speaker 2: Does this guy got to put his name on everything?
13:27
Speaker 3: It's in my contract, dude.
13:28
Speaker 8: Here's the news on the Jim Colbert Show.
13:31
Speaker 4: And JCS News is brought to you by that mortgage guy, Don.
13:36
Speaker 4: At least two people have died and 15 others are
13:39
Speaker 4: missing after a flash flood swept through the Grand Canyon.
13:42
Speaker 4: A man's body was recovered along the Colorado River, although
13:45
Speaker 4: it's not clear when or where the second body was found.
13:48
Speaker 4: Officials say the flooding damaged a key water pipeline serving tourists.
13:53
Speaker 4: As a result, the park has limited water resources ahead
13:56
Speaker 4: of the very busy Labor Day weekend. The pipeline supplies
13:59
Speaker 4: potable water and fire suppression for all South Rim facilities.
14:04
Speaker 4: An area heavily used by visitors, and this is one
14:06
Speaker 4: of their busiest times of the year.
14:08
Speaker 3: Yeah, it actually is one of the most popular trails
14:10
Speaker 3: in the entire park. So what caused the flood? Was it? Yeah,
14:15
Speaker 3: just rain. Oh, it was just rain. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
14:17
Speaker 1: Okay.
14:18
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, raining.
14:19
Speaker 11: I wasn't understanding how it was affecting the water delivery
14:22
Speaker 11: of what they need for tourists.
14:24
Speaker 5: Just knocked it right out.
14:25
Speaker 3: The first time we went to Vegas, it's kind of wild.
14:27
Speaker 3: Because we were commenting on the dry kind of gulches
14:31
Speaker 3: out there. We were warned out there, like, you've got
14:33
Speaker 3: to be real careful in those super dry areas, arid areas,
14:36
Speaker 3: because the sand gets so dry, it doesn't soak up fast. No,
14:39
Speaker 3: it just runs. Like, the water just rolls across the
14:41
Speaker 3: top of it, because it's almost like concrete. So they
14:43
Speaker 3: said these flash floods in Vegas, like in areas like that,
14:46
Speaker 3: can get like gnarly really quick.
14:47
Speaker 5: Very quick.
14:48
Speaker 3: Because it rains up in the mountains and comes down there.
14:50
Speaker 3: You don't even know what's happening.
14:51
Speaker 4: So speaking of rain, it's still a long way away,
14:54
Speaker 4: but the remnants of Tropical Storm Dolly could be dousing
14:57
Speaker 4: Florida starting Friday.
14:59
Speaker 3: They're really looking at a lot of activity, mainly in
15:02
Speaker 3: the afternoon and evenings each day this weekend.
15:04
Speaker 4: So National Weather Service meteorologist George Rizzuto says the system
15:08
Speaker 4: currently located north of the Dominican Republic has only a
15:11
Speaker 4: low chance of redevelopment with our increasing drought and any
15:15
Speaker 4: additional rain from an unexpected or undeveloped system is good news, right? However,
15:19
Speaker 4: the National Hurricane Center has issued a tropical storm warning
15:22
Speaker 4: for portions of the upper Texas and southwestern Louisiana coast
15:27
Speaker 4: with potential tropical cyclone 5 strengthening in the Gulf.
15:32
Speaker 5: It would become Edward.
15:34
Speaker 2: Oh, no.
15:35
Speaker 3: Edward. Edward.
15:36
Speaker 8: Yeah.
15:37
Speaker 3: Sounds like a swarthy pool guy.
15:38
Speaker 5: Doesn't it?
15:39
Speaker 3: Exactly.
15:40
Speaker 5: Coming to clean your clock. Florida drivers are paying– With this.
15:46
Speaker 5: I'm not saying that.
15:47
Speaker 3: You said clock.
15:47
Speaker 5: Yeah, that's right.
15:48
Speaker 1: Clock.
15:49
Speaker 5: Come on now.
15:50
Speaker 4: Florida drivers paying a little more at the pump as
15:52
Speaker 4: Labor Day weekend approaches. Don't forget, text us with what
15:55
Speaker 4: you're seeing as you're driving along at 77031.
15:59
Speaker 3: The yearly gouge.
16:01
Speaker 5: The yearly gouge. AAA says the average price for regular
16:04
Speaker 5: gas statewide is $ 3.
16:05
Speaker 4: 88 a gallon. Not too shabby at three cents from
16:08
Speaker 4: a week ago. Even with some week-to-week savings, prices have
16:12
Speaker 4: stayed fairly steady through much of the summer, right? I mean,
16:14
Speaker 4: they were warning us at one point, we're going to
16:16
Speaker 4: see gas prices like we haven't even seen since 2020.
16:19
Speaker 5: And that hasn't happened yet.
16:21
Speaker 3: The past month, it's been between 360 and 399. Yeah, exactly.
16:25
Speaker 4: And like you just said, yeah, prices have stayed fairly
16:29
Speaker 4: steady through much of the summer, hovering around 392 a gallon.
16:32
Speaker 5: We'll take it.
16:33
Speaker 4: While fuel costs are about 81 cents higher than this
16:36
Speaker 4: time last year, AAA says it does not expect gas
16:40
Speaker 4: prices to keep Floridians from hitting the road again.
16:43
Speaker 5: For the holiday.
16:45
Speaker 3: Okay.
16:45
Speaker 5: Y'all taking a road trip?
16:47
Speaker 3: Nope.
16:49
Speaker 1: No.
16:50
Speaker 4: All right, folks at Orlando City Hall got quite a
16:53
Speaker 4: scare today after a bomb threat was made. The building
16:55
Speaker 4: was evacuated this morning with folks directed to the Dr.
16:58
Speaker 4: Phillips Center for the Performing Arts across the street. I'm
17:01
Speaker 4: sure they were thrilled about that. A stretch of Orange
17:04
Speaker 4: Avenue was also closed during the investigation. The good news
17:07
Speaker 4: is OPD later confirmed the bomb threat was not credible,
17:10
Speaker 4: but the investigation is ongoing. Just a tragic story on
17:15
Speaker 4: I-95 where police say a deadly crash triggered by an
17:18
Speaker 4: alligator on I-95 resulted in the death of a Palm
17:22
Speaker 4: Bay woman over the weekend in Brevard County. According to FHP,
17:26
Speaker 4: a 58-year-old man from Canada was unable to avoid the
17:30
Speaker 4: gator and hit it with his Mercedes. Meanwhile, a woman
17:33
Speaker 4: driving a pickup truck behind the Mercedes lost control as
17:37
Speaker 4: she tried to avoid the Mercedes and ended up rolling. Unfortunately,
17:41
Speaker 4: she was ejected. and landed in the center lane of I-95.
17:45
Speaker 4: Then another unknown driver hit the woman and fled. FHP
17:49
Speaker 4: says she was pronounced dead at the scene.
17:51
Speaker 3: So, I mean, she probably wasn't wearing her seatbelt.
17:53
Speaker 5: I know, she was not.
17:54
Speaker 11: 20-year-old Palm Bay woman, she was not wearing her seatbelt,
17:57
Speaker 11: got tossed from the vehicle. They think she potentially could
18:01
Speaker 11: have survived that first, but then got run over.
18:04
Speaker 3: But then that person... Kept going and hit and run. Yeah.
18:07
Speaker 3: I mean, they wouldn't have been at fault. They must
18:10
Speaker 3: have been hiding something. Is that the 19-year-old kid that
18:13
Speaker 3: got yanked today? Because there's another hit and run where
18:15
Speaker 3: they pulled a kid. He's like 19 years old. That's
18:17
Speaker 3: not the same one, is it?
18:18
Speaker 5: No, it's not.
18:18
Speaker 3: Good Lord.
18:19
Speaker 5: That's a different one.
18:20
Speaker 2: Wow.
18:20
Speaker 3: God, who at 20 years old doesn't wear your seatbelt?
18:22
Speaker 3: How many people in our audience do you think don't
18:23
Speaker 3: wear their seatbelt?
18:24
Speaker 5: Oh, I think there's probably plenty.
18:26
Speaker 7: Really?
18:26
Speaker 3: Yeah, make that the question of the day. I don't know.
18:28
Speaker 3: I thought people were smarter. I'm always disappointed. I am too.
18:31
Speaker 4: I am too.
18:32
Speaker 3: Especially, it's so easy to keep yourself dumb people over.
18:34
Speaker 3: When you look at the stats of deaths with and
18:36
Speaker 3: without those things, you're like, it's one of the most
18:38
Speaker 3: glowing numbers out there.
18:39
Speaker 5: Yeah, but look at the age difference, right?
18:42
Speaker 4: I mean, if she was 20 years old, that's at
18:44
Speaker 4: the height of the nothing's going to get me stage.
18:47
Speaker 4: All right, speaking of things started by animals, you know,
18:50
Speaker 4: this was, you know, a lot of summer vacation season.
18:52
Speaker 4: Maybe families took a road trip or whatever visiting North Carolina.
18:56
Speaker 4: So if you have not heard, a warning is going
18:59
Speaker 4: out after four baby goats tested positive for rabies at
19:04
Speaker 4: a traveling petting zoo in Harmony, North Carolina. Health officials
19:07
Speaker 4: say the mobile petting zoo Farm Adventures euthanized the animals.
19:12
Speaker 4: An infected skunk was found in a separate pen and
19:15
Speaker 4: is believed to have bitten the goat's who were too
19:17
Speaker 4: young to be vaccinated.
19:18
Speaker 3: Is there anything at this petting zoo that isn't deadly?
19:24
Speaker 4: So anyone in contact with the goats between July 28th
19:28
Speaker 4: and last Thursday is encouraged to meet with a health
19:31
Speaker 4: care provider. And if you just touch the goats, you
19:34
Speaker 4: are at the mobile farm. Do not wait for symptoms.
19:37
Speaker 4: The thing with rabies is that once symptoms show up,
19:40
Speaker 4: there's nothing they can do for you. There is no treatment. post-exposure,
19:44
Speaker 4: they can give you some treatment. But if you wait
19:46
Speaker 4: to see if you start feeling poorly, it's too late.
19:49
Speaker 4: So if you had any contact with goats in North Carolina,
19:52
Speaker 4: you're not even sure where the hell the goats were,
19:54
Speaker 4: just get in contact with your doctor.
19:58
Speaker 3: All right.
19:59
Speaker 4: Today is the deadline to get paperwork in order to
20:01
Speaker 4: receive a Bright Futures Scholarship at a Florida public or
20:04
Speaker 4: private college or university next fall.
20:07
Speaker 1: Okay.
20:07
Speaker 4: Along with being a citizen, a graduating senior must have
20:11
Speaker 4: at least a 3.5 or 3.0 weighted GPA and 100
20:17
Speaker 4: service or work hours plus meet SAT or ACT benchmarks.
20:22
Speaker 4: The Florida Academic Scholarship pays for 100%. of a public
20:27
Speaker 4: school's tuition with the Florida Medallion Scholarship paying about 75%,
20:31
Speaker 4: more than $ 50 billion.
20:31
Speaker 1: Yikes.
20:37
Speaker 4: And Bright Futures scholarships have been awarded over more than
20:40
Speaker 4: 30 years.
20:41
Speaker 3: Wow, that's awesome.
20:42
Speaker 5: Isn't that great news?
20:43
Speaker 3: Absolutely. If you can break it through your teenager to
20:46
Speaker 3: do those service hours and take this seriously. I know.
20:50
Speaker 5: Sounds like you're struggling there, Jack.
20:53
Speaker 3: This is all water under the bridge.
20:54
Speaker 9: Poor man.
20:57
Speaker 1: All right.
20:57
Speaker 3: Meanwhile, a– That's the sound of a breakthrough.
20:59
Speaker 5: Yeah, no, that's the sound of– I'm just– I'm done.
21:02
Speaker 3: Dude, I'm done. That's not a breakthrough kind of voice, Bradshaw.
21:05
Speaker 3: That's a broken voice.
21:06
Speaker 1: Oh.
21:06
Speaker 3: How do I– All right.
21:11
Speaker 4: In the meantime, a school in Lake County and the
21:14
Speaker 4: federal government are partnering to address critical labor shortages. This
21:19
Speaker 4: is something you've talked about for many years, Jimmy. Lake
21:21
Speaker 4: Sumter State College announced last week it's received a grant
21:25
Speaker 4: for over $ 5 million from the U.S.
21:27
Speaker 5: Department of Commerce.
21:29
Speaker 4: The money is going to go toward the development of
21:31
Speaker 4: the Eustis Education and Training Center.
21:34
Speaker 3: Nice.
21:34
Speaker 4: So it'll be at State Road 44 and Hicks Ditch
21:38
Speaker 4: Road on eight acres donated by the city of Eustis.
21:41
Speaker 4: The center is going to provide specialized training for commercial
21:44
Speaker 4: drivers and electrical line workers.
21:47
Speaker 9: Yep.
21:47
Speaker 4: School officials say those, too, are some of the region's
21:51
Speaker 4: most in-demand occupations.
21:53
Speaker 3: Yeah, man. That's good news. That is great news. Those
21:55
Speaker 3: are good-paying jobs, too, man. Can't sleep on them. Great-paying jobs.
21:59
Speaker 4: If you've noticed, the commercial driving school that's now at
22:02
Speaker 4: the corner of 46.
22:02
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
22:04
Speaker 4: You know, so, yeah, but, I mean, commercial line workers,
22:07
Speaker 4: commercial drivers.
22:10
Speaker 8: All right.
22:10
Speaker 4: ICE agents are going after people with no criminal charges
22:14
Speaker 4: and no immigration status, even if it's pending. In fact,
22:17
Speaker 4: Jacksonville leads the country in ICE street arrests.
22:22
Speaker 14: They're pulling people out of cars. They're using the flock
22:26
Speaker 14: license plate readers to see who owns the car, who's
22:30
Speaker 14: being insured on the car, in order to be able
22:32
Speaker 14: to see if they have permanent status in this country.
22:35
Speaker 4: Immigration attorney Tammy Fox Isikoff says most of her clients
22:39
Speaker 4: have filed for asylum or paid to expedite a green
22:42
Speaker 4: card but are still being arrested. DHS Secretary Mark Wayne
22:45
Speaker 4: Mullen tells Fox News that many of the non-criminals are
22:49
Speaker 4: actually terrorists and gangsters who don't have a rap sheet
22:52
Speaker 4: in the U.S.
22:54
Speaker 3: We make over 2,600 arrests a day on these illegals.
22:57
Speaker 8: Overwhelmingly, the majority of them are criminals or thugs.
23:01
Speaker 4: Florida and Texas lead the nation in the number of
23:04
Speaker 4: ICE non-criminal arrests. In fact, these stats have quadrupled with
23:07
Speaker 4: an average of 715 arrests per month. up from 115.
23:12
Speaker 11: I'm sure that's what Flock wants to be known for,
23:15
Speaker 11: is used by ICE to track people.
23:18
Speaker 3: Man, these cameras, I don't know which is a hotter
23:20
Speaker 3: topic right now, data centers or Flock cameras.
23:22
Speaker 5: I would say they're both duking it out for number one. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
23:25
Speaker 11: Yeah, well, Vito's having a meeting tonight about this.
23:27
Speaker 8: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
23:28
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, even the governor has said there's just
23:31
Speaker 4: too many of them. They've gone out of control.
23:33
Speaker 3: Well, yeah, it's just who has control over it and
23:35
Speaker 3: how accessible they are. That's the problem. You had a subpoena.
23:38
Speaker 5: Yeah, exactly. And that is the problem, right? It's not
23:40
Speaker 5: that they don't help solve crime.
23:41
Speaker 4: It's that all of a sudden, the first we really
23:44
Speaker 4: heard about it was when you started seeing social media
23:46
Speaker 4: posts about flock cameras. There was never any community meeting. Hey,
23:50
Speaker 4: we're thinking about putting money into this. And then you
23:53
Speaker 4: find out that a flock at one time inadvertently aired
23:56
Speaker 4: live camera feed without getting permission. And how many police
24:01
Speaker 4: officers around the country have been busted for looking up
24:03
Speaker 4: X's with those cameras?
24:04
Speaker 3: Can I tell you, one's too many.
24:06
Speaker 5: Yeah, exactly.
24:07
Speaker 4: You have one that was looking, I think, over 770 times.
24:11
Speaker 3: I think the amount is A. Yeah, A lot. I
24:14
Speaker 3: had a story from Friday, and I nuked it. I
24:17
Speaker 3: think I could probably go back and find it. It
24:19
Speaker 3: was a website where you could go and see if
24:21
Speaker 3: somebody has illegally or searched your plate for any reason. Oh,
24:25
Speaker 3: it's not for everybody, though. It's kind of wild when
24:27
Speaker 3: I saw the story. But there is a there is.
24:29
Speaker 3: Have I been flocked or something like that is is
24:32
Speaker 3: the website I'll find in a minute. Oh, these new
24:34
Speaker 3: days that we're in, as opposed to have I been flogged? Yeah,
24:37
Speaker 3: that's a different website. It's a way different website.
24:40
Speaker 5: Pay for that one.
24:40
Speaker 7: Oh, yeah.
24:41
Speaker 9: Yeah.
24:41
Speaker 3: Facial recognition for that one.
24:43
Speaker 4: A mission to reveal the universe's darkest secrets is underway.
24:46
Speaker 4: That's what NASA said yesterday after the Nancy Grace Roman
24:50
Speaker 4: Space Telescope launched from Kennedy Space Center yesterday. The telescope
24:54
Speaker 4: blasted off at 7.26 a.m. aboard a SpaceX Falcon Heavy rocket.
24:58
Speaker 4: NASA says the five-year mission will help astronomers explore dark matter,
25:02
Speaker 4: dark energy, and worlds outside of our solar system known
25:06
Speaker 4: as exoplanets. The first images from the Roman should be
25:10
Speaker 4: released by early next year. It's named after NASA's first astronomer,
25:14
Speaker 4: Nancy Grace Roman, who, interestingly enough, when she was back
25:18
Speaker 4: in school, said she had a professor who pulled her.
25:20
Speaker 5: Aside and said, you know.
25:22
Speaker 4: Normally, I would try and talk women out of going
25:25
Speaker 4: into physics, but I think you might actually make it.
25:28
Speaker 3: Really? Interesting.
25:31
Speaker 11: And when did she jump to headline news?
25:34
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah.
25:34
Speaker 3: That's the funniest part of that entire story was like,
25:36
Speaker 3: is this satellite just fine tot moms?
25:38
Speaker 12: I know, exactly.
25:39
Speaker 3: Is that what it is?
25:40
Speaker 5: All right.
25:41
Speaker 4: In the meantime, a problem with the spacecraft is forcing
25:44
Speaker 4: NASA and SpaceX to postpone their next mission to the
25:47
Speaker 4: International Space Station. Officials say an oxidizer leak was discovered
25:52
Speaker 4: in the Dragon capsule that will carry Crew 13 into orbit,
25:56
Speaker 4: prompting additional testing and repairs. Volusia County native Luke Delaney,
26:01
Speaker 4: a DeBerry resident and University of North Florida graduate and
26:04
Speaker 4: someone my husband used to serve as an altar boy with.
26:07
Speaker 3: No way, really? Exactly. Small world, dude. DeBerry resident.
26:10
Speaker 5: Is serving as pilot for what will be his first
26:13
Speaker 5: trip to space.
26:14
Speaker 1: Crazy.
26:15
Speaker 5: Isn't that awesome?
26:15
Speaker 4: DeBerry resident, you know, piloting our next Crew 13 mission.
26:19
Speaker 3: That's insane. Do they get to pull straws on who
26:21
Speaker 3: really gets to drive?
26:22
Speaker 4: The mission had been targeting a September 12th launch from
26:26
Speaker 4: Cape Canaveral, but a new launch date has not yet
26:29
Speaker 4: been announced. What has been announced is hunters and campers
26:33
Speaker 4: can get discounts on their favorite items starting tomorrow.
26:37
Speaker 3: From?
26:38
Speaker 4: A four-month sales tax holiday on camping, fishing, and hunting
26:42
Speaker 4: gear will run through the end.
26:43
Speaker 1: Of the year.
26:44
Speaker 3: Damn, that's cool. That is cool. Four months. Yeah, man.
26:45
Speaker 5: Yeah, I know.
26:46
Speaker 3: That's pretty badass.
26:47
Speaker 5: State officials say a similar sales tax holiday last year
26:51
Speaker 5: saved shoppers almost $ 45 million. A lot of money.
26:56
Speaker 8: Yeah, man.
26:56
Speaker 3: That camping stuff is not cheap either.
26:57
Speaker 5: It's not cheap.
26:58
Speaker 15: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
26:58
Speaker 5: When was the last time you went camping?
27:00
Speaker 3: Man, like primitive camping?
27:02
Speaker 7: Yeah.
27:02
Speaker 3: Like in a tent? It's been a minute. Once we
27:04
Speaker 3: bought the camper, I was like, it's like flying first class.
27:06
Speaker 3: She's just like, I ain't getting back there anymore. Exactly.
27:09
Speaker 3: It's really tough to kind of go back, but I
27:11
Speaker 3: would tent camp tomorrow. I love it.
27:12
Speaker 4: Isn't there like an age, too, when you're like, yeah,
27:15
Speaker 4: there's got to at least be an air mattress because
27:17
Speaker 4: we can't do no sleeping bag on the ground no more.
27:20
Speaker 3: Yeah, that age was about 20 years ago. Actually, I
27:23
Speaker 3: do love tent camping. You know what the weird thing is?
27:26
Speaker 3: My favorite thing in the world is to set up camp.
27:29
Speaker 3: Is it really? That's my favorite thing in the world
27:31
Speaker 3: to do is set up camp. Get everything where it's
27:32
Speaker 3: supposed to be and then build a fire and then drink.
27:35
Speaker 3: That's my favorite thing to do. Smoke cigars and drink
27:37
Speaker 3: next to a fire. That's why I go camping. I
27:39
Speaker 3: like having a job with a purpose. Exactly.
27:43
Speaker 16: All right.
27:43
Speaker 5: Speaking of money. A lucky lottery player here in Florida
27:47
Speaker 5: is the winner of an $ 800 million Mega Millions jackpot. What?
27:53
Speaker 3: Nobody told me about this one.
27:54
Speaker 4: The Florida lottery says the winner of a ticket sold
27:57
Speaker 4: near Sarasota has taken the cash option and collected a
28:01
Speaker 4: check for a cool... $ 344 million.
28:05
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's a terrible discount.
28:07
Speaker 4: The winning Quick Pick ticket was purchased at a Wawa
28:11
Speaker 4: in Bradenton and matched all six numbers, John, on July 28th.
28:16
Speaker 5: The winning numbers were, who cares?
28:18
Speaker 3: It doesn't matter.
28:18
Speaker 5: Because somebody else won.
28:19
Speaker 3: I'm just glad somebody in Bradenton and Sarasota, you know
28:22
Speaker 3: the poorest parts of Florida. Found it within themselves to
28:26
Speaker 3: pull another 380 milli out of the system. Good job, guys.
28:30
Speaker 3: I guess another five beach houses for you. Off you go.
28:33
Speaker 4: And then finally, I can hear a lot of Cubs
28:35
Speaker 4: fans saying, yeah, work on the bullpen before you start
28:38
Speaker 4: worrying about this. But it doesn't matter. The Chicago Cubs
28:41
Speaker 4: are going to launch a short-form rom-com series on TikTok
28:45
Speaker 4: this week.
28:47
Speaker 3: Baseball and romance go together?
28:48
Speaker 5: Nine innings to love.
28:50
Speaker 3: Oh, my God.
28:53
Speaker 11: Is this going to be better or worse than that
28:55
Speaker 11: dumb Jimmy Fallon movie about baseball?
28:57
Speaker 3: I never even saw that one.
28:59
Speaker 4: It's going to debut on the popular video sharing platform
29:02
Speaker 4: on Friday.
29:03
Speaker 8: Mm-hmm.
29:04
Speaker 5: The story will be told across nine innings of baseball
29:07
Speaker 5: over 17 episodes.
29:09
Speaker 3: God almighty.
29:10
Speaker 4: It will follow a romance writer and Cubs fan and
29:12
Speaker 4: meet in Wrigley Field's bleaches as she promises to help
29:16
Speaker 4: him find love before the end of the game.
29:19
Speaker 2: Mm-hmm.
29:20
Speaker 3: Is this produced by Hallmark? Is this the next Red
29:23
Speaker 3: Sox curse with these guys or whatever it is? It's
29:25
Speaker 3: a wrong team, but I know.
29:26
Speaker 4: The series was created and written by the team's creative division,
29:31
Speaker 4: Cubs Productions.
29:32
Speaker 3: That's what they're putting all their money these days.
29:34
Speaker 11: I guess.
29:35
Speaker 5: They're having to think outside of the box to get
29:36
Speaker 5: new fans.
29:37
Speaker 1: I guess.
29:37
Speaker 3: What does the number one Cubs fan in your household
29:39
Speaker 3: think about?
29:40
Speaker 17: This?
29:41
Speaker 4: He does not know yet, but I'm sure he's going
29:43
Speaker 4: to be one of those players that's going to go, yeah,
29:45
Speaker 4: and this is why the game yesterday against the Reds didn't.
29:47
Speaker 5: Go so good.
29:48
Speaker 4: They're over there worrying about nine innings to love instead
29:51
Speaker 4: of trying to get us.
29:52
Speaker 5: Into the wild card and into the postseason.
29:55
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
29:55
Speaker 5: Get your heads out of your asses.
29:57
Speaker 3: How are the Gubbies doing this year? It's a battle.
29:59
Speaker 3: Is it really?
30:00
Speaker 5: I mean, yeah.
30:01
Speaker 3: Yeah? They get a shot?
30:02
Speaker 16: I mean, yeah.
30:06
Speaker 3: You sound like every beaten sports fan.
30:09
Speaker 5: Of all time. It's toward the end of the season.
30:12
Speaker 5: Every loss means that much more than it did at
30:15
Speaker 5: the beginning.
30:16
Speaker 3: And it's the Cubs.
30:17
Speaker 5: And it's the Cubs.
30:18
Speaker 4: I mean, you guys know when your football team loses,
30:20
Speaker 4: your wives probably know what kind of a day they're
30:23
Speaker 4: going to have.
30:23
Speaker 3: Listen to me. I am a Braves slash Bucs fan. Oh,
30:26
Speaker 3: I'm sorry. I know the swoon. I feel the swoon.
30:31
Speaker 3: I've watched Braves swoon and the Bucs swoon before.
30:34
Speaker 1: I get it.
30:35
Speaker 5: Either way, that concludes your JCS News.
30:39
Speaker 3: He's a swooner. He is a swooner. 407-916-1041. Text us
30:44
Speaker 3: at 77031. Back in a sec with more of the
30:47
Speaker 3: Jim Colbert Show.
30:49
Speaker 18: I just want to send you guys a huge shout
30:52
Speaker 18: out and a thank you for the tickets I won
30:54
Speaker 18: playing trivia to Taste Central Florida.
30:57
Speaker 3: Oh, boy.
30:57
Speaker 18: My wife and I had an absolute blast. The abundance
31:00
Speaker 18: of food, drinks, entertainment were all first class. It was
31:04
Speaker 18: also a pleasure meeting Jim and his lovely wife.
31:07
Speaker 9: They were both so nice.
31:08
Speaker 18: It was great getting to see what Jim does best
31:11
Speaker 18: live and in person. Also, a special thanks to Jack
31:14
Speaker 18: for helping us get the tickets on time. You guys
31:17
Speaker 18: made two listeners very happy.
31:19
Speaker 3: Oh, that's cool. We made two listeners very angry. I
31:22
Speaker 3: got to tell you, he and his wife, and they
31:24
Speaker 3: were absolutely wonderful. Met people who had been listening to
31:28
Speaker 3: something we've been doing since the early 90s, since we
31:31
Speaker 3: came on the air. It was very cool. Yeah, yeah.
31:33
Speaker 3: Now on, if your.
31:35
Speaker 11: Talkback gets cut off, we have to try and finish
31:37
Speaker 11: what we think that it is.
31:39
Speaker 8: Oh, yeah, yeah.
31:40
Speaker 11: And the context clues, I think, is going to say
31:42
Speaker 11: we made them very angry.
31:43
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
31:44
Speaker 3: Don't leave a blank line for us. We will use it.
31:47
Speaker 3: Welcome back. I'm Jim. There is Deb.
31:49
Speaker 8: Hello.
31:49
Speaker 3: Jack's here as well. Yeah. I have a request from
31:53
Speaker 3: somebody in this building, and I need to go on
31:56
Speaker 3: the record for this because this new journey of mine
32:00
Speaker 3: needs all the help it can get. Is this your
32:02
Speaker 3: journey to use the men's room on another floor?
32:05
Speaker 4: I told you I would cover you guys. If you
32:07
Speaker 4: need it, I'd go stand outside the women's bathroom. As
32:10
Speaker 4: long as you promise to sit.
32:12
Speaker 3: Easily made it down there and did my business and
32:15
Speaker 3: came back up. That is not the request. Okay. That
32:17
Speaker 3: is not the request. Yeah, our bathroom is being repaired
32:20
Speaker 3: on this floor. Yes, it is. You're correct. My journey, Jack,
32:24
Speaker 3: is my journey to rid myself of unneeded sugar in
32:27
Speaker 3: my body for people who are just tuning in. Yeah.
32:30
Speaker 3: I got my blood work a couple weeks ago. Sugar
32:32
Speaker 3: is high. I needed to control some cholesterol, so I
32:34
Speaker 3: made some life changes. No more Pepsis or sodas or
32:38
Speaker 3: heavy sweet drinks like that, which is the easiest way
32:40
Speaker 3: to deliver those unwanted sugar grams to your body. It
32:45
Speaker 3: has been very, very difficult. I had my first cookie
32:49
Speaker 3: this weekend. I haven't had a cookie or a sweet
32:51
Speaker 3: in a month. So my son brought over some cookies
32:54
Speaker 3: he made. So I had a cookie yesterday. It made
32:57
Speaker 3: me want to eat the container because it had cookies
32:59
Speaker 3: in it. But there's a problem in this building, and
33:04
Speaker 3: it needs to be addressed right now. And this goes
33:05
Speaker 3: out to one Angel Rivera from the Monsters of the Morning.
33:08
Speaker 5: Oh, I thought it was someone else for drinking all
33:11
Speaker 5: the Coke Zero.
33:12
Speaker 3: No, no, no. I'll get with him later. If he's
33:16
Speaker 3: the culprit, which I do not know. But there is,
33:19
Speaker 3: I know this one. I know this culprit. Angel Rivera
33:22
Speaker 3: has a massive Oreo problem. We all know it. This
33:26
Speaker 3: is not even a, this is not a, what do
33:28
Speaker 3: you call that? This is not an intervention. This is
33:31
Speaker 3: a friend asking a friend. If you haven't had the Oreo,
33:37
Speaker 3: the apple pie Oreo yet, if you haven't had it,
33:41
Speaker 3: find it somehow. Trade a child for it. Rob a
33:45
Speaker 3: bank and use that money to buy them. That is
33:47
Speaker 3: by far the best non-Oreo Oreo I've ever tasted. It's
33:52
Speaker 3: not even close. That thing is perfect. That apple pie
33:57
Speaker 3: Oreo is so blanking good.
34:00
Speaker 5: I thought it was too sweet.
34:01
Speaker 8: No, what?
34:04
Speaker 3: It is so good.
34:05
Speaker 5: It's good.
34:07
Speaker 3: Angel left it in like half of a container of
34:09
Speaker 3: them out there and a half of a container of
34:11
Speaker 3: like toffee. He has some Oreo plug somewhere where somebody
34:16
Speaker 3: just kind of weasels out of an alley and opens
34:20
Speaker 3: up their coat and sells him one-off bags of Oreos.
34:23
Speaker 3: And then he just leaves them laying around. Dude, you
34:26
Speaker 3: can't do that.
34:27
Speaker 11: He can because he's Angel, and he knows he's going
34:30
Speaker 11: to get, every time a new flavor comes out, his
34:33
Speaker 11: connection just drops him off. And so he shares them
34:35
Speaker 11: with everyone else. They were here on Friday.
34:37
Speaker 3: Dude, that apple pie Oreo is crazy good.
34:41
Speaker 4: Now, have you tried the toffee one yet?
34:43
Speaker 3: No, I've got one. I can't. I can't. It was
34:49
Speaker 3: 70 calories. One cookie is 70 calories. That's a lot, dude. Yes,
34:53
Speaker 3: that's a lot. Three cookies is a Snickers bar. Three!
35:02
Speaker 3: Three cookies! I can hide them in my hand. It's
35:05
Speaker 3: like three poker chips with cream in the middle. It's
35:07
Speaker 3: America's favorite cookie.
35:08
Speaker 5: It is America's favorite cookie.
35:09
Speaker 3: Can I tell you, if the regular Oreos, like your
35:12
Speaker 3: regular old Hydrox Oreo, I'm not even a gigantic fan of.
35:16
Speaker 5: Don't put Oreo and Hydrox in your mouth at the
35:19
Speaker 5: same time.
35:20
Speaker 3: It's the same thing. No, they're not.
35:22
Speaker 5: Hydrox is a.
35:23
Speaker 3: They're not, but Hydrox was first, actually.
35:25
Speaker 5: They were first, and then Oreo perfected it. It's kind
35:29
Speaker 5: of like saying you eat Necco wafers.
35:31
Speaker 19: It's the same product, isn't it?
35:33
Speaker 3: It's not the same? Like Dr. Pibb and Dr. Pepper
35:38
Speaker 3: and Mr.
35:38
Speaker 1: Pibb?
35:38
Speaker 3: I think they're close.
35:40
Speaker 5: They're close, but no cigar.
35:42
Speaker 3: Yeah, I got you. That apple pie thing, though. I'm
35:46
Speaker 3: telling you, dude, that's a problem. That is a problem.
35:48
Speaker 3: That is such a good product.
35:50
Speaker 4: Stop talking about it so you won't think about it,
35:53
Speaker 4: so you won't go out there and grab another one.
35:55
Speaker 3: If I had milk, they'd be gone. If I had
35:58
Speaker 3: half a gallon of milk, those Oreos would be missing.
36:02
Speaker 3: I would have absconded with the Oreos. Angel, please stop.
36:04
Speaker 8: I'm begging you.
36:05
Speaker 3: Put them in your closet or something. Put them in
36:07
Speaker 3: your little locker we have here. Stop leaving them laying around, dude.
36:11
Speaker 5: You're killing Jimmy.
36:12
Speaker 3: You're literally killing me. He could be doing it on purpose.
36:16
Speaker 5: I doubt it.
36:16
Speaker 3: Maybe it's a test. A test of what? Your willpower. Well,
36:20
Speaker 3: I failed, Jack. We know.
36:21
Speaker 12: I failed.
36:22
Speaker 3: I had one. I did have one. How many have
36:24
Speaker 3: you had out of that bag? Today, I had one.
36:26
Speaker 3: You had just the one apple pie one because you
36:28
Speaker 3: haven't tried it yet? No, I had the toffee one.
36:30
Speaker 3: The toffee one?
36:31
Speaker 1: Today.
36:31
Speaker 3: So on Friday. It's okay.
36:34
Speaker 2: Yeah.
36:34
Speaker 3: Which is better, the apple pie or the toffee? The
36:36
Speaker 3: apple pie is better. Well, I mean, it's way better. Yeah.
36:38
Speaker 3: Tell me this then. Both of you are trying to
36:42
Speaker 3: poo-poo the apple pie. Tell me what collab for Oreos
36:45
Speaker 3: you think is better than that one. So I can
36:48
Speaker 3: tell you you're wrong. Reese's peanut butter cup. That's a
36:50
Speaker 3: pretty good one. You know what? I haven't even had
36:55
Speaker 3: it and I know it's better. No, no, I don't
36:57
Speaker 3: think it's better than that. That's I mean, to me, that's,
36:59
Speaker 3: that is a really good product. I've never even heard
37:02
Speaker 3: of them doing that, but whatever that's the, the, the cream,
37:05
Speaker 3: they flavored it perfectly. It is exactly like an apple pie.
37:09
Speaker 3: It's so good. That tastes, the flavor does hit you.
37:12
Speaker 3: It's like, yeah, absolutely. Damn. That's, That's on point. Boy,
37:18
Speaker 3: that's a great idea. If you just put those in
37:19
Speaker 3: a bag and crush them up and sprinkle them on
37:21
Speaker 3: just regular vanilla ice cream, that's a stone cold winner
37:24
Speaker 3: right there.
37:25
Speaker 4: Or you make a strudel or something and you use
37:27
Speaker 4: that as the topper instead of.
37:28
Speaker 3: Or a shake. Oh, there you go. Oh, my God almighty.
37:31
Speaker 5: Don't think about it. You're going to go out there
37:33
Speaker 5: and end up eating another one.
37:34
Speaker 3: I am going to go out there and eat another one.
37:37
Speaker 3: I will go downstairs and run the stairs. Are you
37:39
Speaker 3: going to try the toffee one or are you going
37:41
Speaker 3: to go back to the apple pie one? He's going
37:42
Speaker 3: to go apple pie. I'm going to go the apple
37:43
Speaker 3: pie one, but I may sneak a toffee one too.
37:47
Speaker 3: I think they're missing. Feeling rebellious. I think they're missing.
37:49
Speaker 3: I think they're gone. Feeling like a sugar rebel. They're
37:51
Speaker 3: not gone, are they? They're gone. They're not gone. When
37:54
Speaker 3: I go to break you out the door, they better
37:56
Speaker 3: be there.
37:56
Speaker 11: Now, this is interesting because less than three minutes ago,
38:00
Speaker 11: you said, Angel, get rid of them.
38:02
Speaker 5: I don't want to see them again. It was all
38:04
Speaker 5: about his journey.
38:05
Speaker 3: And now you're saying they better be there. The journey
38:10
Speaker 3: I was talking about is from here to that pack
38:11
Speaker 3: of Oreos. Yeah. That's the journey I'm talking about. The
38:13
Speaker 3: 20 feet. The 20 feet. Once I go to break,
38:16
Speaker 3: I'm going to go to those Oreos right now. You're
38:17
Speaker 3: going to hear them in my teeth when we come back.
38:19
Speaker 11: Think of all the extra calories you'll burn going to
38:21
Speaker 11: the third floor to use the bedroom.
38:22
Speaker 9: Exactly.
38:22
Speaker 3: That's what I'm saying. All right.
38:23
Speaker 9: 407-916-1041.
38:23
Speaker 3: Text us at 77031. Take a little break. Back in
38:25
Speaker 3: a second with more of the Jim Colbert Show. Stay put.
38:37
Speaker 10: Food, afternoon, morning, Colbert, Kuru. Okay, Jimmy, time to change
38:40
Speaker 10: your tune on camping. Disc camp, November. All you guys
38:43
Speaker 10: need to come and at least hang out. We don't
38:45
Speaker 10: do this primitive. Bar, full kitchen setup, two fire pits,
38:49
Speaker 10: air conditioning, distilling our own alcohol. Hell, I built a
38:53
Speaker 10: camper on the back of my own truck.
38:55
Speaker 3: It's going to be a great time. Give you the
38:57
Speaker 3: details later on.
38:58
Speaker 10: But, Jimmy, while I was camping, what did the lake say.
39:01
Speaker 8: To the sailboat?
39:01
Speaker 3: I don't know.
39:03
Speaker 8: It didn't say much. It just waved.
39:04
Speaker 3: Tee out. Oh, man.
39:07
Speaker 7: You know how they tell you that.
39:13
Speaker 3: No, I won't say that. 407-916-1041. Text us 77031.
39:16
Speaker 1: I'm Jim.
39:17
Speaker 3: There's Deb. Hello. Jack is here as well. You're right, Jack.
39:21
Speaker 3: The toffee one is pretty darn good. Still not as
39:24
Speaker 3: good as the apple pie one.
39:25
Speaker 1: Agreed.
39:26
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah. Still a fine product, though. Now you're up
39:29
Speaker 3: to 140 calories. I know, buddy. Now I've got to
39:31
Speaker 3: do five more push-ups before I get out of here.
39:33
Speaker 3: But it's also probably all the sugar you need in
39:35
Speaker 3: three days. Yeah, it is.
39:37
Speaker 10: 100%.
39:38
Speaker 3: So I know you probably got to talk about this
39:39
Speaker 3: on Friday. Did you guys talk about the Dolly Parton
39:41
Speaker 3: airport scenario on Friday?
39:43
Speaker 10: No.
39:44
Speaker 3: Did you guys obviously heard about that, though, this weekend, right?
39:46
Speaker 1: Oh, yeah.
39:47
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah. I guess Governor Bill Lee over there in
39:49
Speaker 3: Tennessee and Nashville International Airport announced the news Friday that
39:53
Speaker 3: they're thinking about, or at least moving forward with the
39:56
Speaker 3: idea of changing it to Dolly Parton International Airport. I'm
40:01
Speaker 3: on board.
40:01
Speaker 5: I am, too.
40:02
Speaker 3: I don't know anybody that wouldn't be. Oh, there's someone
40:05
Speaker 3: out there. Yeah, I'm sure. There's a hater out there.
40:08
Speaker 3: You're right. My question is, if you're a person of note,
40:15
Speaker 3: you know, And you're not an elected official that made
40:17
Speaker 3: it to, like, the presidency, or maybe you're not a
40:20
Speaker 3: war hero or someone of that nature. Is that the
40:23
Speaker 3: greatest accolade as a person to have an airport named
40:27
Speaker 3: after you? Nope.
40:28
Speaker 18: Money.
40:28
Speaker 3: It's money?
40:29
Speaker 5: Getting your face on, you know.
40:31
Speaker 3: That's it? Getting your face on money? Yeah, but the
40:33
Speaker 3: thing is, it's like. Well, what?
40:35
Speaker 11: Benjamin Franklin is the only one who's not a president
40:38
Speaker 11: who's on money.
40:39
Speaker 3: No, that's not necessarily the case. Oh, well, point Susan B. Anthony. Yeah,
40:43
Speaker 3: Susan B. Anthony.
40:44
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
40:46
Speaker 8: Yeah.
40:48
Speaker 5: You think airport?
40:49
Speaker 3: Man, that or like.
40:50
Speaker 5: I wouldn't mind a spaceport.
40:52
Speaker 11: Well, is that bigger than the Presidential Medal of Freedom?
40:56
Speaker 11: Getting an airport named after you?
40:58
Speaker 3: Yeah. There's fewer of those.
41:01
Speaker 11: More people have received the Presidential Medal of Freedom, but
41:04
Speaker 11: Dolly twice refused it.
41:06
Speaker 3: Right, 100%. We've talked about this a little bit before.
41:09
Speaker 3: There are airports named after people who aren't elected officials
41:12
Speaker 3: or war vets, right? Because John Wayne... Yeah, I think
41:16
Speaker 3: Louis Armstrong for New Orleans, I believe. So this is
41:20
Speaker 3: not out of the ordinary. This can happen. But I mean,
41:23
Speaker 3: outside of like a like, you know, a warship or a,
41:26
Speaker 3: you know, one of the ships from the Navy, the
41:28
Speaker 3: USS and then your last name. That's pretty badass. That
41:31
Speaker 3: would be pretty cool. But that will eventually get decommissioned.
41:36
Speaker 5: Yeah, well.
41:37
Speaker 3: Oh, in Liverpool, you have a famous airport. Oh, the
41:41
Speaker 3: Beatles or whatever. John Lennon. John Lennon.
41:44
Speaker 8: Wow.
41:44
Speaker 3: They chose John Lennon, huh? That's kind of wild to
41:46
Speaker 3: focus one of those guys out.
41:48
Speaker 7: Yeah.
41:48
Speaker 3: Instead of just like the whole group in it. Well,
41:51
Speaker 3: I mean, you could make an argument that two of
41:53
Speaker 3: the other guys are still alive. Yeah, I know.
41:56
Speaker 11: And typically you I think they say you have to
41:59
Speaker 11: be dead for two years before they would bestow that
42:02
Speaker 11: honor on you.
42:03
Speaker 3: Yeah, but I mean, isn't it pretty common that everybody
42:05
Speaker 3: knew that, you know, that it was him and McCartney
42:08
Speaker 3: that wrote a lot of those songs? It's not just
42:09
Speaker 3: John Lennon for the Beatles. McCartney had a gigantic part
42:12
Speaker 3: of that as well. He's still collecting his flowers. Yeah,
42:15
Speaker 3: he's still alive. Maybe they should have just held off.
42:18
Speaker 3: And made it the McCartney-Lennon International Airport or something. Maybe
42:21
Speaker 3: they should have done that. This has been 45 years
42:24
Speaker 3: since he died. I don't care, man. In my opinion,
42:26
Speaker 3: that's not fair. Charles de Gaulle, Leonardo da Vinci. De
42:31
Speaker 3: Gaulle was a war, was the, well, he was the
42:34
Speaker 3: Prime Minister of France. Yeah, he was the President. You
42:38
Speaker 3: have Leonardo da Vinci, Indira Gandhi. An Istanbul Ataturk.
42:45
Speaker 13: Yeah, yeah.
42:45
Speaker 3: But in the U.S., how many in the U.S., Jack,
42:47
Speaker 3: are named after people who aren't elected officials or war heroes?
42:52
Speaker 3: Let's see. Because we know the Louis B. I think
42:54
Speaker 3: you nailed them. Yeah, the Louis Armstrong and the John Wayne.
42:57
Speaker 3: And then this would be Dolly. Yeah. Somebody said– Yeah,
43:02
Speaker 3: John Glenn, but– I mean, he swore, but that's astronaut. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
43:06
Speaker 4: At the Dolly Airport, you're going to have to look
43:08
Speaker 4: for Terminal Double D.
43:09
Speaker 3: Oh, stop it. Hey, a texter did that.
43:13
Speaker 18: 7703.
43:14
Speaker 5: I did read it.
43:15
Speaker 3: You platformed.
43:15
Speaker 5: I thought it was hilarious. Thank you.
43:19
Speaker 3: Yeah, but I think that would be kind of cool.
43:21
Speaker 3: But just flying into Dolly Parton International Airport is kind
43:23
Speaker 3: of wild. Because, again, her name is synonymous with, like,
43:28
Speaker 3: everything caring and giving. But it's not stoic, though, is it?
43:33
Speaker 3: It doesn't have a stoic nature to it. Like, do
43:35
Speaker 3: you expect an airport to have, like, a JFK? You
43:38
Speaker 3: mean like Donald J. Trump International Airport in Palm Beach County?
43:42
Speaker 3: The rules are out the window, Jimmy. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
43:44
Speaker 5: Nothing applies anymore.
43:46
Speaker 3: He is a president. True. Sitting.
43:48
Speaker 8: Yes.
43:49
Speaker 16: Yeah, yeah.
43:50
Speaker 3: That's the wild part of that one. It is. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
43:53
Speaker 11: I mean, they did the same thing for Obama. They
43:54
Speaker 11: named a street after Obama when he was still president.
43:58
Speaker 3: Really? Yeah. Was his library started? No, no, no. Because
44:01
Speaker 3: that thing just got done, right? Correct. Yeah, yeah. Well,
44:06
Speaker 3: they named roads. We know that for a fact, right?
44:08
Speaker 3: After people while they're still sitting. Or no. Yeah, Obama
44:11
Speaker 3: and whom else? Obama, but that's my thing, is you shouldn't. Right, yeah, yeah, yeah.
44:16
Speaker 3: You should not do that.
44:17
Speaker 11: You shouldn't do it when they are still actively engaged.
44:20
Speaker 3: And does that get voted on? That's just a commission
44:23
Speaker 3: that says this is what should happen, right? It shouldn't
44:26
Speaker 3: be up for a vote. Should things like that be
44:28
Speaker 3: voted on? In other words, Tennessee, let's say this November,
44:31
Speaker 3: they put this on the ballot. Hey, by the way,
44:33
Speaker 3: or maybe even next year, whatever. We want to name this.
44:35
Speaker 3: I mean, should this be a citizens-driven thing? Just to
44:39
Speaker 3: see how much they really care about it? Or should
44:41
Speaker 3: it be a thing that a commission that's appointed by
44:43
Speaker 3: usually the person who's getting the accolade, should they get that?
44:47
Speaker 4: I think it should be with the citizens because if
44:49
Speaker 4: they're going to be asked to pay for any of that,
44:51
Speaker 4: they should get a voice.
44:52
Speaker 8: And they do.
44:53
Speaker 1: Yeah. Right. Yeah.
44:53
Speaker 3: I mean, I think it should be voted on. Like
44:55
Speaker 3: when you make these big name changes, for one thing,
44:57
Speaker 3: it's going to make it onto the onto the it's
44:59
Speaker 3: going to make it into as an amendment. That, for
45:01
Speaker 3: one thing, it even takes a runoff to get it
45:03
Speaker 3: to that point, right? But you can't let the citizens
45:06
Speaker 3: pick the name. Otherwise, you'd have Pliny McPlainface.
45:09
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
45:10
Speaker 3: You can't do that. Yeah, I understand that. But, I mean,
45:12
Speaker 3: if we just basically said, hey, look, we're going to
45:14
Speaker 3: put this as a ballot amendment. We're going to say, hey, look,
45:17
Speaker 3: we want to change this to Dolly Parton International Airport.
45:20
Speaker 3: Are you in? And then the majority wins. If it wins,
45:23
Speaker 3: it does. And if it doesn't, it just stays exactly
45:25
Speaker 3: like it is. Bob Hope Burbank Airport.
45:28
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah.
45:29
Speaker 4: No, because the person who votes against the Dolly International
45:31
Speaker 4: Airport is going to be the person that gets beaten
45:33
Speaker 4: in the parking lot.
45:35
Speaker 3: How Dolly of you, isn't it? Dolly calls in some
45:39
Speaker 3: controversy online everywhere, man. Everybody's like, it's wild, man. She's
45:43
Speaker 3: not doing it.
45:44
Speaker 5: I was going to say, she's not.
45:45
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah. It's the rest of us. It's everyone but her.
45:49
Speaker 3: People are saying, be more like Dolly. Be more like Dolly.
45:52
Speaker 3: I saw one guy in our group said, was Dolly
45:55
Speaker 3: a better person than Jesus? I'm like, that's a hell
45:59
Speaker 3: of a question to ask. I mean, why would you
46:00
Speaker 3: even ask that question? Exactly. It's so crazy.
46:03
Speaker 11: And I'd say the answer is no. Even Dolly said that.
46:07
Speaker 11: She goes, I like money.
46:09
Speaker 7: Yeah.
46:11
Speaker 11: She admitted her flaws and stuff, and she went through
46:13
Speaker 11: depression and stuff, you know, and in the 80s was
46:17
Speaker 11: having a tough time. But, you know, she admitted that,
46:20
Speaker 11: but she was authentic, and she was caring, and she gave.
46:24
Speaker 3: Yeah, she was quite the philanthropist. Actually, this weekend I
46:26
Speaker 3: read a cool piece. I wish I could still find it,
46:29
Speaker 3: but it was like early in the weekend, and it basically–
46:32
Speaker 3: it was laying this out. It says, you know– Everybody
46:35
Speaker 3: understands why Dolly was such a great person because of
46:37
Speaker 3: the stuff that you know about, right? You know about
46:39
Speaker 3: the Imagination Library.
46:40
Speaker 8: Right.
46:40
Speaker 3: You know about her donating money towards the COVID vaccine.
46:44
Speaker 3: You know about a lot of these things, right? But
46:46
Speaker 3: what is kind of wild is what no one has
46:48
Speaker 3: considered is Dolly probably could have been maybe a multi-billionaire.
46:53
Speaker 5: Oh, without a doubt.
46:53
Speaker 4: She could have let her money continue to make money.
46:55
Speaker 4: But like after I Will Always Love You with Whitney Houston,
46:58
Speaker 4: she invested that money into an African-American neighborhood that was–
47:03
Speaker 4: economically depressed.
47:05
Speaker 3: That just starts it. I mean, this guy listed a
47:07
Speaker 3: bunch of the things that, you know, and a lot
47:09
Speaker 3: of the things that her money funded. And it is crazy.
47:12
Speaker 3: So many foundations that do help the poor and needy
47:16
Speaker 3: and people who are born into areas that really lowered
47:20
Speaker 3: their chances of really making it anywhere in life, trying
47:23
Speaker 3: to lift those people up, give them educations, you know,
47:25
Speaker 3: get them that pat and like that little pull forward
47:28
Speaker 3: to get beyond the life that they'd been kind of
47:30
Speaker 3: born into and but tons and tons of that. But yeah,
47:33
Speaker 3: they said that she could have easily been a multi-billionaire
47:35
Speaker 3: with the money she created. Had she just taken that
47:37
Speaker 3: money and invested it to keep it for herself, she
47:39
Speaker 3: easily would have made that money, uh, or made it
47:42
Speaker 3: over that mark. But instead she gave most of it away.
47:44
Speaker 3: I think it's cool that her parents got to see
47:46
Speaker 3: her success. Uh, you know what? 12 kids in a
47:50
Speaker 3: one room cabin. Yeah. That's crazy.
47:52
Speaker 11: Her father could not read or write, which inspired her
47:54
Speaker 11: to do the children's library.
47:55
Speaker 1: Right.
47:55
Speaker 7: Right.
47:56
Speaker 2: Yeah.
47:57
Speaker 4: I even heard, uh, over the weekend that, um, You know,
48:00
Speaker 4: of course, her cause of death was after a brief
48:02
Speaker 4: battle with cancer. The family did not disclose what type
48:05
Speaker 4: of cancer she was suffering from, but did say that
48:08
Speaker 4: she even allowed doctors in her treatment to use experimental
48:11
Speaker 4: drugs in the hopes that, you know, maybe they could
48:14
Speaker 4: help someone else in the future.
48:15
Speaker 17: Wow.
48:16
Speaker 5: So put herself up to be like a test dummy.
48:18
Speaker 5: You know, I'm not going to come out of this.
48:20
Speaker 5: So if you can learn something from this, then do
48:23
Speaker 5: what you need to do.
48:23
Speaker 3: Yeah. The guy in 2015, when she returned to the
48:27
Speaker 3: Ryman Auditorium there in Nashville, she The Grand Ole Opry
48:30
Speaker 3: announcer Bill Cody introduced her as, quote, the most beloved
48:34
Speaker 3: artist of all time.
48:36
Speaker 5: Without a doubt.
48:37
Speaker 3: Yeah. Pretty cool. Uh, yeah. In 88, she launched the
48:39
Speaker 3: Dollywood foundation and it just kind of goes on and
48:41
Speaker 3: on and there. I mean, uh, she has a thing
48:43
Speaker 3: called the, my people fund. Uh, she put, you know,
48:46
Speaker 3: there's put $ 9 million into this thing. It's just, it
48:49
Speaker 3: goes on and on and on. She wants a sanctuary
48:51
Speaker 3: for bald Eagles that couldn't survive in the wild, started
48:54
Speaker 3: a college scholarship, uh, to give a high school seniors
48:57
Speaker 3: money for college donated a million dollars. COVID research, uh,
49:01
Speaker 3: known for imagination library, by the way, not on the
49:04
Speaker 3: COVID donation. Uh, It was to Vanderbilt.
49:07
Speaker 11: Yeah, Rick Schroeder came out, let's say, opposing that.
49:11
Speaker 3: Oh, did he really? Yeah, he was like, you know.
49:13
Speaker 3: The old TV guy? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Silver Spoons? Yeah, yeah, exactly.
49:16
Speaker 3: And he was on NYPD Blue, but he also played
49:19
Speaker 3: Dolly's dad. in a biopic. Uh, you know, he, he
49:23
Speaker 3: played her dad when they were younger.
49:25
Speaker 10: Yeah.
49:25
Speaker 1: Yeah.
49:26
Speaker 11: And, uh, but it was his message, but then turned
49:29
Speaker 11: it around to, you know, even though I disagreed with
49:31
Speaker 11: you for that, you know.
49:34
Speaker 3: It's like obligated to say that he got roasted for
49:39
Speaker 3: the comments. Oh, I bet.
49:41
Speaker 2: Yeah.
49:41
Speaker 3: You know, the vaccine that saved millions of people. See,
49:44
Speaker 3: and the thing is, you don't usually get your name
49:45
Speaker 3: on a building unless you actually donate the money to
49:48
Speaker 3: build the building. So the building's out, right? College wing
49:51
Speaker 3: would be kind of cool. Like, if you had a
49:53
Speaker 3: wing in a college named after you, like the Crummer
49:55
Speaker 3: School of Business over there at Rollins College.
49:58
Speaker 5: At this point in my life, I'd be happy with
50:00
Speaker 5: a bus station.
50:01
Speaker 3: Yeah. Happy with the bus stop.
50:04
Speaker 8: Yeah.
50:05
Speaker 3: All right.

50:16
Speaker 20: Them taking the flag and putting it on half staff
50:23
Speaker 20: is probably the highest escalate that she could get because
50:28
Speaker 20: they don't do that for normal people.
50:32
Speaker 3: That's a really good one, dude. Really good one. The
50:37
Speaker 3: staff at Half Mass for you, buddy? Yeah. Yeah, that's
50:39

Speaker 3: have the camera on her beautiful smiling face as we speak.
51:20
Speaker 7: Hi.
51:20
Speaker 3: And she comes through on Mondays, talks about things happening
51:23
Speaker 3: in the world of movies. An interesting box office weekend. Yeah.
51:26
Speaker 3: Kind of wild, huh?
51:27
Speaker 19: I'm so excited to talk. I haven't seen specific box
51:31
Speaker 19: office numbers, but is it about Coyote vs.
51:33
Speaker 3: Acme? Yeah. Beating a Ridley Scott movie.
51:37
Speaker 19: Which was... I heard was not good.
51:39
Speaker 9: Yeah.
51:39
Speaker 3: Not good. But the fact that this movie wasn't even
51:41
Speaker 3: supposed to be released, like they put this thing in
51:43
Speaker 3: the tank and they're like, I'd go hide this from everybody.
51:45
Speaker 3: They release it. It winds up doing, I think like
51:48
Speaker 3: 14 or 15 million, not like crazy, but they didn't
51:51
Speaker 3: even plan on releasing the thing. And it still winds
51:53
Speaker 3: up beating like one of the most like, um, uh,
51:55
Speaker 3: heralded directors of our time. It's true.
51:57
Speaker 19: But you know, I was looking at some of Ridley
51:59
Speaker 19: Scott's more recent stuff and it really has not been
52:02
Speaker 19: big hits. Like I, the same with like, And this
52:06
Speaker 19: is just my personal opinion, but same with like some
52:08
Speaker 19: of Spielberg's more recent stuff.
52:09
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
52:10
Speaker 19: Like it just doesn't hit the way it used to,
52:12
Speaker 19: you know?
52:12
Speaker 3: Yeah, maybe their era just kind of passed, right?
52:14
Speaker 7: Yeah.
52:14
Speaker 3: Where people kind of loved that stuff. You're right. I
52:16
Speaker 3: agree with that because that– was it 8mm really wasn't
52:20
Speaker 3: that good either? I thought that one– Not 8mm. What
52:23
Speaker 3: was the other one? Super 8? Super 8. Yeah, Super 8.
52:26
Speaker 3: I didn't think– I mean– It was okay.
52:28
Speaker 19: It's just been like– Nothing compares to Jaws or E.T.
52:32
Speaker 3: Yeah, any of those movies. Jurassic Park. Yeah, I mean,
52:34
Speaker 3: just name them one after the other. Hey, we all
52:36
Speaker 3: have our prime and it doesn't last forever.
52:40
Speaker 19: Well, and then like with Ridley Scott too, that movie,
52:42
Speaker 19: I honestly, I go to the movies, you know, all
52:46
Speaker 19: the time, multiple times a week usually. I have seen
52:49
Speaker 19: that trailer almost every single time I've been into a
52:52
Speaker 19: movie theater and I'm sick of it as a movie viewer. Also,
52:56
Speaker 19: it didn't, that trailer, if you've seen it, Doesn't really say,
53:00
Speaker 19: and I didn't even know it was a post-apocalyptic story.
53:03
Speaker 19: type of movie. I had to look up the synopsis
53:06
Speaker 19: and I was like, nah, no, I don't want to
53:08
Speaker 19: see it.
53:09
Speaker 8: I'm done.
53:09
Speaker 3: Nope, I'm good. Yeah, he gave us Alien, Blade Runner,
53:12
Speaker 3: The Martian, Gladiator, Kingdom of Heaven, Napoleon, Thelma and Louise,
53:16
Speaker 3: Black Hawk Down, American Gangster. So, you know, he's had
53:19
Speaker 3: some bangers.
53:20
Speaker 19: Oh, absolutely.
53:21
Speaker 3: Yeah, but I mean, again, your vision sometimes just doesn't
53:23
Speaker 3: match as society and culture kind of moves into different worlds.
53:27
Speaker 3: If you don't follow that around, you're going to be
53:29
Speaker 3: just making movies for the old timers.
53:30
Speaker 19: I think people are so done with post-apocalyptic films.
53:35
Speaker 3: Yeah, because now that we're living it.
53:38
Speaker 19: Yeah, it is very much giving post-COVID.
53:40
Speaker 3: All right, Emily goes out and finds some good movies
53:44
Speaker 3: and then tells us about them. What do you got
53:45
Speaker 3: for us this week?
53:46
Speaker 19: Well, you already mentioned it before, but I want to
53:48
Speaker 19: get into it. Coyote vs.
53:50
Speaker 3: Acme.
53:51
Speaker 19: I know I mentioned it last week when I was
53:53
Speaker 19: on here because I was very excited to see it.
53:55
Speaker 19: And I hope that this reaches the people it does
53:58
Speaker 19: because this movie needs to continue to be seen. Um,
54:02
Speaker 19: the whole story about like you had very briefly mentioned
54:05
Speaker 19: how this got, um, this got shelved.
54:08
Speaker 8: Yeah.
54:09
Speaker 19: This is, this is not normal for, for a movie.
54:12
Speaker 19: The projects get canceled and stuff, but that's usually in
54:15
Speaker 19: pre or sometimes even during production. This was a fully
54:18
Speaker 19: finished film and it had been screening with test audiences
54:21
Speaker 19: and been testing very positively.
54:23
Speaker 9: Yeah.
54:24
Speaker 19: So it was very out of the blue that Warner
54:26
Speaker 19: Brothers executives decided to shelve it completely, not even release
54:30
Speaker 19: it for streaming or anything like that. It was supposed
54:33
Speaker 19: to come out in 2023. And I don't think people
54:37
Speaker 19: that aren't in the industry fully realize how devastating that is. One,
54:41
Speaker 19: because it's like you have a finished movie. Why wouldn't
54:43
Speaker 19: you try to salvage something out of it? And it
54:46
Speaker 19: was doing good in its testing. So why wouldn't you
54:49
Speaker 19: try to do something with it?
54:50
Speaker 3: What was that answer?
54:53
Speaker 19: They wanted a tax write-off.
54:55
Speaker 3: Oh, no way. They took it as.
54:57
Speaker 19: A $ 20 million tax write-off.
54:59
Speaker 3: No way. I hadn't heard that.
55:01
Speaker 1: Yep.
55:02
Speaker 3: Wow.
55:03
Speaker 19: Which is, and it's such a slap in the face
55:05
Speaker 19: to anyone that worked in creating that film because, you know,
55:09
Speaker 19: I myself am a performer, but you do this work
55:14
Speaker 19: in the hopes that somebody's going to see it, whether
55:17
Speaker 19: it's a film, whether it's theater, whether it's, you have to,
55:20
Speaker 19: The work has to have an audience. It doesn't do
55:22
Speaker 19: anything if it doesn't have an audience. So it was
55:25
Speaker 19: such a weird thing to come to a conclusion to
55:30
Speaker 19: with the executives.
55:31
Speaker 3: Yeah, because you automatically assume they just thought it was
55:32
Speaker 3: so bad that there was no reason they weren't going
55:35
Speaker 3: to market it. No, it was doing really good. A
55:36
Speaker 3: giant portion of those movies' budgets is marketing, is paying
55:39
Speaker 3: for the ads, running TV and radio ads and online
55:43
Speaker 3: ads and print ads and stuff. And I just assume
55:46
Speaker 3: that they watched it and said, we're no way of
55:49
Speaker 3: rolling the dice on spending $ 10 million to promote this
55:51
Speaker 3: thing when no one's going to go see it.
55:53
Speaker 19: Which is also so funny because Warner Brothers, like, you've
55:56
Speaker 19: never had, like, a dumpster fire of a movie before.
55:59
Speaker 3: Of course they have.
55:59
Speaker 19: Right, exactly. But this was genuinely so good.
56:02
Speaker 3: Was it fun?
56:03
Speaker 5: Oh, I loved it.
56:04
Speaker 3: Really?
56:04
Speaker 12: Yes.
56:05
Speaker 1: Wow.
56:05
Speaker 19: So, like, thank you to Ketchup Entertainment that bought this movie.
56:09
Speaker 19: I saw an article that this outdid The Odyssey this weekend,
56:13
Speaker 19: which is, like, I know, obviously, The Odyssey has been
56:15
Speaker 19: out a minute, but it's still doing pretty good numbers.
56:18
Speaker 19: So the fact that this movie, like, has been doing
56:22
Speaker 19: well in the box office. I really hope. So they
56:24
Speaker 19: bought it, I believe, for $ 50 million. And I sincerely
56:27
Speaker 19: hope that it does good enough of a run that
56:29
Speaker 19: they not only make their money back, but that they
56:31
Speaker 19: make money off of it. Just as a big screw
56:34
Speaker 19: you to these executives.
56:35
Speaker 3: So let me ask you a quick question then, because
56:37
Speaker 3: I mean, the Acme world and the Coyote, what's it?
56:43
Speaker 3: Wile E.
56:43
Speaker 19: Coyote.
56:43
Speaker 3: Yeah, the Wile E. I mean, that's relatively old stuff.
56:46
Speaker 3: I mean, that's stuff that we watched as kids.
56:49
Speaker 1: Yeah.
56:49
Speaker 3: Like, you know, Gen Xers watch that as kids. We
56:52
Speaker 3: Saturday morning grew up, watch the Roadrunner, watch the Coyote.
56:57
Speaker 3: I mean, that is really odd to buy and spend
57:00
Speaker 3: 50 million on that and expect that audience because people
57:03
Speaker 3: my age, like I wouldn't go see it. And it's
57:06
Speaker 3: not because I don't like the character. No, I would
57:08
Speaker 3: have no interest in going seeing a movie like that.
57:10
Speaker 3: It's going to kind of pass where I am in
57:12
Speaker 3: the movie world like that.
57:13
Speaker 19: No, I think they brought it into such a great.
57:16
Speaker 19: modern audience. And I didn't realize this till right before
57:19
Speaker 19: I went to go see the movie as I was
57:21
Speaker 19: doing some research on it. This concept, Coyote vs. Acme,
57:24
Speaker 19: was actually an article from 1990 that somebody wrote for
57:27
Speaker 19: The New Yorker, and he wrote it like a court document.
57:31
Speaker 19: And so ever since then, people have been trying to
57:36
Speaker 19: get this movie made. So it's crazy that it took
57:38
Speaker 19: from 1990 to 2023 to get it made. And then
57:43
Speaker 19: of course this additional hurdle with having it be shelved.
57:46
Speaker 19: And it's really, really weird that a giant corporation didn't
57:51
Speaker 19: want a movie released about taking down a giant corporation,
57:54
Speaker 19: you know, as, as horrible as it is that this
57:59
Speaker 19: movie had so many hurdles before it got released this
58:01
Speaker 19: last weekend, it's the best thing that could have happened
58:04
Speaker 19: for it because it's such like a art imitates life situation.
58:08
Speaker 3: Yeah.
58:08
Speaker 19: And it made me enjoy it that much more.
58:10
Speaker 3: What was the crowd like when you were in there
58:12
Speaker 3: watching the movie?
58:12
Speaker 19: Oh, we were having a hoot.
58:13
Speaker 1: Yeah.
58:14
Speaker 3: I mean, but what was the makeup? What was the demo?
58:16
Speaker 3: Was it older people, younger people? I mean, was it
58:18
Speaker 3: in the middle?
58:18
Speaker 19: I would say it was a good mix of both.
58:20
Speaker 19: There was a lot of like 20, 30, 40 some things.
58:23
Speaker 19: I saw like a couple of families, at least one
58:26
Speaker 19: family with like a couple of younger kids. But it's
58:29
Speaker 19: really fun. And I also enjoyed that the movie focuses
58:33
Speaker 19: on Wile E. Coyote because, I mean, he's a well-known
58:35
Speaker 19: Looney Tunes character, but he's not Bugs Bunny.
58:38
Speaker 8: No, no, no.
58:38
Speaker 19: He's not Daffy Duck.
58:39
Speaker 3: Well, he was the bad guy. You know? He was
58:41
Speaker 3: the Looney Tunes bad guy.
58:42
Speaker 19: He's a vomiting hero.
58:44
Speaker 3: But did he deserve that? All he was doing was
58:47
Speaker 3: what a coyote does. They never explained that. And he'd
58:50
Speaker 3: get all of these faulty products from Acme. They had
58:54
Speaker 3: a maniac miner with guns and he was still a
58:56
Speaker 3: better guy than the coyote.
58:58
Speaker 19: But there are so many... Oh, go ahead.
59:01
Speaker 3: They had a rapey skunk and that guy was considered
59:04
Speaker 3: better than one.
59:04
Speaker 19: They have a really funny joke about that, too. They
59:07
Speaker 19: include him just enough, but then Grammy has this predatory spray,
59:12
Speaker 19: and she sprays it to every one of you.
59:14
Speaker 3: Oh, that's funny.
59:15
Speaker 19: I'm telling you, they brought this into such a perfect...
59:19
Speaker 19: like modern time, time piece. And I, I loved it.
59:22
Speaker 19: I also was genuinely laughing out loud. Like there's, there's
59:26
Speaker 19: a really funny needle drop when a roadrunner is first
59:30
Speaker 19: introduced and it's some rap song, but all of the, uh,
59:34
Speaker 19: swear words are bleeped out with me. Oh, that's so funny.
59:39
Speaker 3: Who stars in this movie?
59:40
Speaker 19: Uh, it has Will Forte and John Cena.
59:43
Speaker 10: Wow.
59:44
Speaker 3: Yeah.
59:44
Speaker 19: It says like the two main lawyers, uh, And then
59:47
Speaker 19: Lana Condor, who was in, like, To All the Boys
59:49
Speaker 19: I Loved Before. She's been in some other stuff. She's, like,
59:53
Speaker 19: Will Forte's assistant at his firm. But it really felt
59:58
Speaker 19: like if you would all love Who Framed Roger Rabbit.
1:00:01
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah.
1:00:02
Speaker 19: Really? It felt like this generation's Who Framed Roger Abbott.
1:00:05
Speaker 19: And I don't say that lightly because I love that movie.
1:00:08
Speaker 8: Yeah, yeah.
1:00:08
Speaker 3: That was cult-like when it hit. I mean, we'd never
1:00:11
Speaker 3: seen anything like that. We never saw cartoons interacting with
1:00:13
Speaker 3: real people before.
1:00:14
Speaker 19: Yeah, but I think that is going to be an evergreen,
1:00:19
Speaker 19: funny thing to watch, regardless of whether it's cartoon characters
1:00:24
Speaker 19: moving into a real-world scenario, because that can be very silly,
1:00:28
Speaker 19: and or real people... Getting slapstick comedy. Those two things
1:00:33
Speaker 19: at war with each other will always be for good entertainment.
1:00:36
Speaker 3: Awesome. So how many stars do you give this one?
1:00:38
Speaker 19: Four out of five.
1:00:39
Speaker 3: No, get out of here. Really, that good?
1:00:40
Speaker 19: Four out of five.
1:00:41
Speaker 3: I'll be damned, man. Yes. An hour and a half,
1:00:43
Speaker 3: real quick, easy to consume?
1:00:44
Speaker 19: No, it was like an hour and 40 minutes, something
1:00:45
Speaker 19: like that. I loved it. I had such a good time.
1:00:48
Speaker 3: That's awesome.
1:00:49
Speaker 19: Everyone needs to see it.
1:00:50
Speaker 3: Very cool.
1:00:51
Speaker 15: Yeah.
1:00:51
Speaker 3: What don't you have for us?
1:00:52
Speaker 2: Okay.
1:00:52
Speaker 19: Yesterday, I went to go see a rom-com. I've talked
1:00:56
Speaker 19: about rom-coms many times on here.
1:00:58
Speaker 3: You have a rom-com problem?
1:01:01
Speaker 8: No.
1:01:01
Speaker 16: A problem?
1:01:02
Speaker 3: You love them. You're addicted to rom-coms.
1:01:04
Speaker 19: I support them.
1:01:05
Speaker 3: Yeah, okay.
1:01:05
Speaker 12: Okay.
1:01:06
Speaker 3: I thought it was a little more severe than that.
1:01:08
Speaker 10: Oh, no, no.
1:01:08
Speaker 11: She's trying to get across the point that she's in
1:01:11
Speaker 11: control of this.
1:01:12
Speaker 3: Okay, okay.
1:01:13
Speaker 19: Yeah, I'm in control of this narrative. And it's called
1:01:17
Speaker 19: Finding Emily.
1:01:18
Speaker 3: Okay.
1:01:19
Speaker 10: So, I know.
1:01:20
Speaker 15: What?
1:01:20
Speaker 19: So, there was already... I know, guys. You can find
1:01:22
Speaker 19: me at the AMC, okay?
1:01:25
Speaker 3: Come and get it.
1:01:25
Speaker 8: But.
1:01:26
Speaker 19: This, this movie came out earlier this year in the
1:01:29
Speaker 19: UK and it's based in Manchester. And it's about this
1:01:33
Speaker 19: like 20 something guy meets a girl at a bar.
1:01:36
Speaker 19: They hit it off. He gets her number before she,
1:01:39
Speaker 19: you know, traipses off with her friends and he realizes
1:01:43
Speaker 19: the phone number is one digit off. So he ends
1:01:46
Speaker 19: up going on a quest to this university that she
1:01:48
Speaker 19: said she attends in hopes of finding her. He ends
1:01:51
Speaker 19: up stumbling across another Emily and, who is a psychology major,
1:01:55
Speaker 19: and she's trying to find a new case study for
1:01:57
Speaker 19: her thesis. And she's like, this is perfect. He'll be
1:02:00
Speaker 19: my case study. I'm going to help you find this Emily.
1:02:03
Speaker 19: And so then it just goes on from there. It
1:02:07
Speaker 19: was very charming. It had its moments, but I don't
1:02:11
Speaker 19: like the main characters.
1:02:13
Speaker 8: Who was?
1:02:13
Speaker 19: Well, Emily. And then the main guy's character's name is Owen.
1:02:19
Speaker 3: Okay. Do we know the actors?
1:02:21
Speaker 10: No.
1:02:22
Speaker 8: No.
1:02:22
Speaker 3: Oh, OK.
1:02:23
Speaker 19: Not not off the top of my head. They were
1:02:24
Speaker 19: kind of relatively unknown. The girl I've seen in a
1:02:26
Speaker 19: couple other small things, but they weren't big, big actors.
1:02:29
Speaker 3: All right.
1:02:31
Speaker 19: But like these characters to me were not likable. There's
1:02:35
Speaker 19: this like secret trope because.
1:02:37
Speaker 3: That's a real problem in a rom-com. Well, yeah.
1:02:41
Speaker 19: I didn't really find them all that redeemable. Like the
1:02:43
Speaker 19: girl that plays. Emily, the psychology major, she ends up
1:02:49
Speaker 19: keeping the case study thing a secret, which is very illegal,
1:02:53
Speaker 19: first of all. And that didn't make any sense to
1:02:56
Speaker 19: me because this guy was so desperate to find this girl.
1:02:59
Speaker 19: I'm sure if she asked, hey, I'll help you if
1:03:02
Speaker 19: you can be my case study, he probably would have
1:03:03
Speaker 19: said yes. So even that as a plot device was
1:03:07
Speaker 19: just very cheap to me. I didn't like it. And
1:03:11
Speaker 19: by the end of the film, of course, you know, rom-coms,
1:03:13
Speaker 19: they get together.
1:03:14
Speaker 3: Right. Okay. Yeah, but which Emily? Which Emily? Which ending
1:03:19
Speaker 3: was it? Sitting outside with the boom box or showing
1:03:22
Speaker 3: up with the flip cards or which ending was it?
1:03:23
Speaker 19: You got to watch it.
1:03:25
Speaker 3: Jim, the one person you might recognize, Minnie Driver's in it. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
1:03:29
Speaker 19: She plays the principal?
1:03:30
Speaker 3: The dean, yeah. Yeah, the dean, the dean.
1:03:32
Speaker 19: Yeah, that's cool. The movie ended, the credits start rolling,
1:03:36
Speaker 19: and I look over at my friend that I went with,
1:03:38
Speaker 19: and I went, they're not going to stay together.
1:03:40
Speaker 5: I give it a month.
1:03:44
Speaker 3: Even with the great rom-com gathering, you're still not buying it, huh?
1:03:49
Speaker 19: Nope, not buying it. I did give it three out
1:03:52
Speaker 19: of five stars, which is still a decent grade for
1:03:54
Speaker 19: me because there are some very sweet moments. But I
1:03:57
Speaker 19: was like, I don't like either of these people.
1:03:59
Speaker 3: No Notting Hill, huh? No. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
1:04:01
Speaker 19: They really, again, they don't make them like they used to.
1:04:04
Speaker 3: They don't. The funny thing is with Notting Hill, did
1:04:06
Speaker 3: they have that one character like in Notting Hill, Hugh
1:04:09
Speaker 3: Grant's roommate was like, to me, he was the complete
1:04:12
Speaker 3: scene stealer the entire movie. I wanted to see more
1:04:15
Speaker 3: of this cat every time. He was just, every time
1:04:18
Speaker 3: he made me laugh out loud, was there a character
1:04:19
Speaker 3: like nothing?
1:04:20
Speaker 18: Not really.
1:04:21
Speaker 19: There were some other minor characters because all of the
1:04:24
Speaker 19: Emily's at this giant university get involved. And so there's
1:04:28
Speaker 19: some like minor characters, like there's a girl, Emily, that
1:04:31
Speaker 19: is the student body president. And she's like, this is
1:04:33
Speaker 19: an invasion of our privacy. Blah, blah, blah. So there's
1:04:37
Speaker 19: lots of silly things going on, but I wouldn't recommend it.
1:04:43
Speaker 3: When you have an experience in a movie that doesn't
1:04:47
Speaker 3: really live up to what you maybe were expecting, or
1:04:49
Speaker 3: you even do that, do you go into a movie
1:04:51
Speaker 3: with anticipation because maybe you've seen the trailer, you've read
1:04:54
Speaker 3: about it, maybe a couple of reviews from people that
1:04:56
Speaker 3: you have parallel kind of ideas? Do you get bummed out? Like, damn,
1:05:01
Speaker 3: I wanted that to be better.
1:05:03
Speaker 19: Well, especially this one, because the people that had seen
1:05:06
Speaker 19: it in the UK earlier this year, it had generally
1:05:09
Speaker 19: really positive reviews. And I can see why some people
1:05:11
Speaker 19: would like this. Like I said, it really does have
1:05:13
Speaker 19: its moments that I'm like, I see glimpses of what
1:05:15
Speaker 19: could be a really cute story. And I am not
1:05:18
Speaker 19: connecting with it the way you guys are. So, you know,
1:05:22
Speaker 19: I wish I could go into every single movie without
1:05:25
Speaker 19: any biases. But we live in a world with social
1:05:28
Speaker 19: media and you're always going to see stuff or you're
1:05:31
Speaker 19: always going to see these articles of people going to
1:05:33
Speaker 19: early screeners and saying, the Odyssey, the best movie of
1:05:37
Speaker 19: the year, which, you know, that rightfully so. But regardless...
1:05:41
Speaker 19: There is going to be bias, even if you don't
1:05:43
Speaker 19: think so for yourself.
1:05:44
Speaker 3: Did you see Spider-Man holding up for five straight weeks
1:05:47
Speaker 3: as the number one movie? That's pretty brutal, huh? That's incredible, man.
1:05:50
Speaker 3: It still is. Five weeks in a row that movie
1:05:52
Speaker 3: is number one. That's unheard of. We haven't seen that
1:05:54
Speaker 3: in quite a while.
1:05:56
Speaker 19: You haven't seen it yet?
1:05:57
Speaker 3: No, I haven't seen it yet. No, no, no. My
1:05:59
Speaker 3: schedule's been bananas, but no, I haven't had a chance
1:06:02
Speaker 3: to see it. Oh, he's not going. Don't pretend.
1:06:05
Speaker 19: No, you need to go see Coyote vs. Acme.
1:06:08
Speaker 12: Come on.
1:06:09
Speaker 3: If you had me to go see one or the other,
1:06:10
Speaker 3: which would it be?
1:06:11
Speaker 19: Coyote vs.
1:06:11
Speaker 3: Acme. Over Spider-Man?
1:06:13
Speaker 19: Yes, because you haven't seen any of the other Spider-Man movies.
1:06:17
Speaker 5: Listen to that admonishment.
1:06:19
Speaker 3: Do what I do. Look, I got a mom. Yeah,
1:06:22
Speaker 3: but you know what? She's right.
1:06:25
Speaker 19: Yeah, thanks, Jack.
1:06:26
Speaker 3: You go to YouTube, you just search, like, Primer for Spider-Man,
1:06:29
Speaker 3: and it gets you caught up into, like, so you
1:06:32

Speaker 3: I will ground you young lady to your room okay
1:06:58
Speaker 3: dad okay.
1:07:02
Speaker 19: No, but seriously, between the two, I would pick Biodiversity.
1:07:05
Speaker 1: Really?
1:07:05
Speaker 3: You really enjoyed it that much? Really, really did.
1:07:08
Speaker 19: It's incredibly clever.
1:07:09
Speaker 3: I may have to check that out. That's actually kind
1:07:11
Speaker 3: of cool.
1:07:12
Speaker 16: Mm-hmm.
1:07:12
Speaker 3: Uh-huh. What else you got for us?
1:07:14
Speaker 19: I don't have anything else on the docket this week,
1:07:16
Speaker 19: but my goodness, there is so much coming up for movies.
1:07:21
Speaker 19: You sent me that article literally before I walked in
1:07:24
Speaker 19: here in my car. I was looking at tickets for
1:07:26
Speaker 19: primetime because those tickets just dropped. Have you seen the
1:07:30
Speaker 19: trailer for primetime?
1:07:30
Speaker 3: I have not. What's that all about?
1:07:32
Speaker 19: It's about the guy that did. Is it to catch
1:07:35
Speaker 19: a predator or something?
1:07:36
Speaker 8: Oh, yeah.
1:07:37
Speaker 15: Yeah.
1:07:37
Speaker 17: Yeah.
1:07:37
Speaker 3: Yeah.
1:07:38
Speaker 2: Yes.
1:07:38
Speaker 19: It's about Chris Hansen and it stars Rob Pattinson. I'm
1:07:41
Speaker 19: telling you now, on the air, he's going to get
1:07:44
Speaker 19: nominated for this.
1:07:46
Speaker 3: I've heard his performance is amazing already from some of
1:07:48
Speaker 3: the stuff I've read.
1:07:49
Speaker 19: He's having an amazing year.
1:07:50
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, he really is. He's a very talented actor.
1:07:52
Speaker 17: He is.
1:07:52
Speaker 3: He really is.
1:07:53
Speaker 19: I'm so glad he moved on from Twilight.
1:07:55
Speaker 3: Did you see it? Yeah, no joke. And that's hard
1:07:57
Speaker 3: to do, though. When you have a character, I mean,
1:07:58
Speaker 3: you think about the rest of that cast. I mean,
1:08:00
Speaker 3: you know, Kristen Stewart had some action, but the rest
1:08:02
Speaker 3: of that cast really didn't have anything happen for them,
1:08:04
Speaker 3: did they?
1:08:05
Speaker 19: No, but they may have also not want, like sometimes
1:08:09
Speaker 19: people do their major movie, they make their coin and
1:08:11
Speaker 19: they're like, I'm out. Now I'm just going to do
1:08:13
Speaker 19: some little indie films here and there, get married, start
1:08:15
Speaker 19: a family.
1:08:16
Speaker 3: He made that one movie where he was, he regenerated
1:08:19
Speaker 3: as a, it was called.
1:08:21
Speaker 5: Mickey 17.
1:08:21
Speaker 19: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
1:08:22
Speaker 3: That was a really unique movie, but his performance in
1:08:25
Speaker 3: that was kind of crazy good.
1:08:27
Speaker 9: Yeah.
1:08:27
Speaker 3: It really was.
1:08:28
Speaker 19: His vocal things that he was doing differently between the
1:08:30
Speaker 19: two were really crazy.
1:08:31
Speaker 3: Wild, man. If you haven't seen Mickey 17 yet, I mean,
1:08:34
Speaker 3: it is a bit of a, it is a bit
1:08:35
Speaker 3: of a trick to Don't get me wrong, but it
1:08:37
Speaker 3: is a really unique movie. But this dude turns in
1:08:40
Speaker 3: a performance that is like bananas good.
1:08:42
Speaker 20: Yeah.
1:08:43
Speaker 19: I'm really excited for primetime. So I will be finishing
1:08:46
Speaker 19: checking out and getting my little primetime tickets once I'm
1:08:49
Speaker 19: done here with this fun little segment. But if you
1:08:52
Speaker 19: haven't seen the trailer for it, though, Rob Pattinson, he's
1:08:55
Speaker 19: already becoming a meme with his like, you know how
1:08:57
Speaker 19: this looks, right?
1:08:58
Speaker 1: Right. yeah.
1:08:59
Speaker 19: Like, people are like, oh, my God, he sounds just
1:09:01
Speaker 19: like Chris Hansen.
1:09:01
Speaker 3: Right, yeah, yeah. Did you hear that Chris Hansen, the
1:09:04
Speaker 3: actual Chris Hansen, bought, like, ads before every trailer or
1:09:08
Speaker 3: something like that?
1:09:09
Speaker 19: Because he has some new thing coming out.
1:09:10
Speaker 8: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
1:09:11
Speaker 20: Yeah.
1:09:11
Speaker 3: I was like, that's ballsy.
1:09:13
Speaker 19: Interesting. And I guess he also wasn't part of the project.
1:09:17
Speaker 1: No, he wasn't.
1:09:18
Speaker 19: He wasn't involved with this movie.
1:09:20
Speaker 11: And he said he didn't get to watch the screening
1:09:24
Speaker 11: of it because he refused to sign the NDA.
1:09:27
Speaker 3: It said it was too complex. And he goes he
1:09:30
Speaker 3: didn't want to have anything to do with it. So
1:09:33
Speaker 3: you're watching that for next week and then anything else?
1:09:35
Speaker 19: No, that is not coming out until the end of September.
1:09:39
Speaker 19: But this week I'm going to be watching The Uprising.
1:09:42
Speaker 19: There's actually an early screener that's happening at one of
1:09:46
Speaker 19: the AMCs here in Orlando. I'm very excited because it
1:09:50
Speaker 19: has Andrew Garfield, which you know how I feel about him.
1:09:55
Speaker 3: We can see your face color change.
1:09:58
Speaker 10: Exactly.
1:09:58
Speaker 3: I'm blushing. I'm blushing.
1:10:00
Speaker 19: But it's coming out a full week early, which is
1:10:02
Speaker 19: great because we obviously have Labor Day next weekend. And
1:10:04
Speaker 19: then I'm going to be out of town the following
1:10:05
Speaker 19: weekend in L.A.
1:10:07
Speaker 3: Oh, look at you.
1:10:07
Speaker 19: So I'm glad I can get this in before I
1:10:09
Speaker 19: go on my trip. But right after, they're going to
1:10:12
Speaker 19: be live streaming a Q & A with the director
1:10:15
Speaker 19: and with Andrew Garfield.
1:10:16
Speaker 2: Oh, wow.
1:10:16
Speaker 3: That's cool.
1:10:17
Speaker 19: So I'm really excited to sit in on that and
1:10:19
Speaker 19: get some more insight. And hopefully I'll have some fun
1:10:21
Speaker 19: little fun facts.
1:10:22
Speaker 3: Very nice. Very nice.
1:10:24
Speaker 19: There's a lot else coming out, though. Practical Magic 2
1:10:27
Speaker 19: is going to be coming out soon. I know people
1:10:29
Speaker 19: are really excited for that. There's that Korean movie that
1:10:32
Speaker 19: you were excited about.
1:10:34
Speaker 9: Yeah, Hero.
1:10:35
Speaker 3: Or Hope. Or Hope, yeah. Hope, that's it.
1:10:36
Speaker 19: There's so, so much.
1:10:38
Speaker 3: Yeah, there's another one with... Isn't there a Brad Pitt
1:10:40
Speaker 3: movie that's coming out where he gets kind of lost
1:10:42
Speaker 3: in the wilderness kind of thing? With a dog. Yeah,
1:10:44
Speaker 3: with a dog.
1:10:45
Speaker 5: I'm not watching that.
1:10:47
Speaker 13: Why are you.
1:10:48
Speaker 3: Are you poo-pooing on Brad Pitt?
1:10:49
Speaker 12: I'm not.
1:10:50
Speaker 14: No, I.
1:10:50
Speaker 3: Is he too old for you to like?
1:10:52
Speaker 17: Is that what it is?
1:10:52
Speaker 8: No.
1:10:52
Speaker 3: We're just finding out he's not really a good guy.
1:10:55
Speaker 1: Well.
1:10:56
Speaker 19: Maybe that's part of it, but I just know this
1:11:00
Speaker 19: dog is going to die in this movie. I've seen
1:11:02
Speaker 19: the trailers. That dog is going to die.
1:11:04
Speaker 3: I heard the dog lives. Are you sure it dies?
1:11:07
Speaker 19: Well, then, okay. Does the dog live and then Brad
1:11:10
Speaker 19: Pitt dies?
1:11:11
Speaker 3: I don't know.
1:11:11
Speaker 19: Because then that means he's going to be stuck in
1:11:14
Speaker 19: this forest or whatever.
1:11:14
Speaker 3: Somebody has to die for the movie to be complete?
1:11:17
Speaker 3: Is that what you're saying? Did Disney make it? Oh,
1:11:19
Speaker 3: don't say that. If Disney made it, everybody does. Yeah,
1:11:22
Speaker 3: someone always dies in a Disney movie.
1:11:23
Speaker 19: It looks sad. And it looks like people are going
1:11:26
Speaker 19: to get hurt. And I don't want to see that.
1:11:27
Speaker 3: You don't go see sad movies? That's not a good
1:11:30
Speaker 3: movie reviewer.
1:11:30
Speaker 19: I don't see sad movies about some veteran and his
1:11:33
Speaker 19: dog in the middle of a forest trying to get out.
1:11:35
Speaker 8: It's Brad Pitt.
1:11:36
Speaker 3: He's like one of the most viewable actors in the world.
1:11:38
Speaker 19: Then you can go see that with your hard-earned money.
1:11:40
Speaker 19: I'll save my A-list reservation for something else.
1:11:44
Speaker 1: You're unlimited.
1:11:44
Speaker 3: You get all the movies you want.
1:11:46
Speaker 16: Oh, my gosh.

1:13:09
Speaker 9: Rob in Michigan. Oh, I just got home. Cleaned out
1:13:14
Speaker 9: my garage over the weekend so I could park my car.
1:13:17
Speaker 9: I got a seat now, so I'm looking at my car, parked.
1:13:20
Speaker 3: In my new clean garage, and I'm smoking a pre-rolled joint.
1:13:24
Speaker 3: Thanks to Michigan. Anyway, smart to say that.
1:13:33
Speaker 7: Wow.
1:13:34
Speaker 3: Just a daily update. Is that where we're going? Yeah, yeah.
1:13:36
Speaker 3: For Michigan. All right.
1:13:37
Speaker 5: Thanks, man.
1:13:37
Speaker 3: I appreciate that. As in Michigan Lake pre-roll Jays. Yeah.
1:13:42
Speaker 3: Hanging out in his garage getting cleaned over the weekend.
1:13:44
Speaker 3: That's one of the most manly things you can do, right?
1:13:46
Speaker 3: Just have a perfectly good house inside with AC, and
1:13:49
Speaker 3: you go out and sit in the garage. Big fan.
1:13:54
Speaker 8: All right.
1:13:54
Speaker 3: Welcome back. I'm Jim. There's Deb. Hello. Jack is here
1:13:56
Speaker 3: as well. Yeah. We have some breaking news. Do we not, Debra?
1:13:59
Speaker 5: Yeah, we do.
1:14:00
Speaker 4: We have the Florida Department of Transportation revoking permits for FLOC.
1:14:05
Speaker 4: You know, those automated license plate reading cameras installed by
1:14:09
Speaker 4: local law enforcement agencies along state roads and right away
1:14:13
Speaker 4: cited concerns about misuse, privacy and surveillance. In a memorandum
1:14:17
Speaker 4: issued today, FDOT said all existing approvals for license plate
1:14:21
Speaker 4: recognition systems and state rights of way are revoked. Along
1:14:25
Speaker 4: with that, the department is also immediately stopping approval of
1:14:29
Speaker 4: all future requests to install those cameras. Law enforcement agencies
1:14:33
Speaker 4: have 30 days to remove them. We know Volusia County,
1:14:37
Speaker 4: Jefferson County. along with the Jacksonville Sheriff's Office, have said, yep,
1:14:41
Speaker 4: we've stopped already.
1:14:42
Speaker 3: Wow, really? I wonder how police departments feel about that. Because,
1:14:45
Speaker 3: I mean, obviously, you look at it as a tool
1:14:47
Speaker 3: to find bad people. I mean, it's hard to beat.
1:14:50
Speaker 3: But then in the same sense is, you know, with
1:14:52
Speaker 3: that net, you also drag in people or you get
1:14:54
Speaker 3: information from people who aren't committing crimes. And, you know,
1:14:57
Speaker 3: that's a major player in this country.
1:15:00
Speaker 11: Yeah, I'm thinking if you have something that helps you
1:15:02
Speaker 11: do your job better, You're going to not like seeing
1:15:06
Speaker 11: it taken away from you.
1:15:07
Speaker 3: Right. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
1:15:08
Speaker 11: Even though the flip side of the coin and the
1:15:10
Speaker 11: downside is it will affect other people negatively.
1:15:14
Speaker 3: How did they– just can I ask a quick question?
1:15:15
Speaker 3: This is just pure stupidity, Jack. You guys probably know
1:15:18
Speaker 3: more about this than I. I don't know. Who was the–
1:15:20
Speaker 3: I mean– Where did the legislation come from to start
1:15:23
Speaker 3: allowing these permits? Because obviously this is a reaction to
1:15:27
Speaker 3: massive blowback, especially going into midterms. I was just.
1:15:30
Speaker 4: About to say, does this sound like it has anything
1:15:33
Speaker 4: to do with the upcoming election?
1:15:35
Speaker 3: I'm sure it does. But what I'm saying is someone
1:15:37
Speaker 3: thought this was a good idea at one point and
1:15:39
Speaker 3: greenlit these permits to get these things in there. Who
1:15:42
Speaker 3: was that? Or has this been a county by county
1:15:45
Speaker 3: thing that the state really hasn't ever overseen? Yeah, I
1:15:48
Speaker 3: don't know. They just started appearing. Yeah, exactly.
1:15:51
Speaker 11: I don't remember any discussion being about them. They were
1:15:54
Speaker 11: just there. And my daughter was talking about flock cameras.
1:15:57
Speaker 11: And that's what are you talking about?
1:15:59
Speaker 5: Yeah, exactly.
1:15:59
Speaker 4: You started seeing it on social media. There was no
1:16:03
Speaker 4: community notice. Hey, at tonight's city council meeting, we're going
1:16:06
Speaker 4: to talk about issuing this contract to flock.
1:16:08
Speaker 5: It just all of a sudden the camera showed up.
1:16:10
Speaker 11: In fact, the city of Oviedo had one planned for
1:16:13
Speaker 11: this evening.
1:16:14
Speaker 3: Yes. They have a conversation. I believe it's happening in
1:16:16
Speaker 3: just a little bit.
1:16:17
Speaker 11: On the pros and cons, and they actually had representatives
1:16:20
Speaker 11: from flock going to that meeting.
1:16:23
Speaker 3: You know, I guess, would it be, if it's FDOT,
1:16:27
Speaker 3: would it be all roads? Because, like, could cities still
1:16:31
Speaker 3: have it if they want? Interstates are federal roads, though, right?
1:16:34
Speaker 4: Yeah, this is state. These are specifically, this only covers
1:16:37
Speaker 4: state roads. This does not cover city roads or county roads.
1:16:42
Speaker 3: Oh, okay, hold on now.
1:16:44
Speaker 11: Wait, no, county and city are part of the state.
1:16:47
Speaker 3: Understood. So what roads would be– On state roads is
1:16:50
Speaker 3: how the story is read. On or off of state roads?
1:16:54
Speaker 3: State roads that are on state roads. Flock cameras installed
1:16:57
Speaker 3: on state roads are the ones that are ordered to
1:16:59
Speaker 3: be removed. Like State Road 434. Right.
1:17:01
Speaker 11: It says state road in it, right? And I know
1:17:04
Speaker 11: there's a couple of winter springs on 434. But you could.
1:17:07
Speaker 4: Be on Orange Avenue in downtown Orlando and they could
1:17:10
Speaker 4: still use their flock cameras because that is not a
1:17:13
Speaker 4: state road.
1:17:13
Speaker 3: Do you think that it became like the thing when
1:17:16
Speaker 3: we got the name flock? Because haven't we had license
1:17:18
Speaker 3: plate reader cameras for years now? Is that what happened?
1:17:21
Speaker 3: It's just the labeling and the name of it became
1:17:25
Speaker 3: because we've had plate readers.
1:17:26
Speaker 11: And the prevalence of where they are and how many
1:17:29
Speaker 11: are now in the field and accessible by people, law enforcement,
1:17:37
Speaker 11: and apparently others.
1:17:39
Speaker 5: And because it is a third-party vendor... That's the problem.
1:17:42
Speaker 4: That is the problem, because you can have law enforcement
1:17:45
Speaker 4: from four or five half a country away be able
1:17:48
Speaker 4: to access the plate readers that are going on in
1:17:51
Speaker 4: central Florida. They're just simply like Jack said, we just
1:17:53
Speaker 4: heard that these cameras were around.
1:17:55
Speaker 1: Right.
1:17:56
Speaker 4: And now Flock is doing what a lot like from
1:17:58
Speaker 4: social media on down. They're trying to put the toothpaste
1:18:01
Speaker 4: back in the tube. By addressing safety concerns that should
1:18:04
Speaker 4: have been addressed in the first place, law enforcement officers
1:18:07
Speaker 4: being the ones predominantly misusing the system.
1:18:10
Speaker 3: And this is on the heels of we just had
1:18:11
Speaker 3: some video, was it last week or the week before,
1:18:13
Speaker 3: of an officer as he's talking to someone who is
1:18:15
Speaker 3: supposed to be a suspect. And he basically says, hey, look,
1:18:18
Speaker 3: I got you when you come into the county. I
1:18:20
Speaker 3: got you when you go to Target. I got you
1:18:22
Speaker 3: when you come out of the gas station. There's nowhere
1:18:24
Speaker 3: you can go in my county where I don't know
1:18:27
Speaker 3: where you are. A cop on the record says that
1:18:31
Speaker 3: on his camera as he's talking to a suspect for
1:18:33
Speaker 3: something or an alleged suspect. And he's kind of lets
1:18:37
Speaker 3: the cat out of the bag. Like, look, man, there's
1:18:38
Speaker 3: nowhere you can be where we're not seeing you. And
1:18:40
Speaker 3: is there anybody under the estimation? And that's not the
1:18:42
Speaker 3: case anywhere in the U S now outside of incredibly
1:18:45
Speaker 3: rural areas. I mean, isn't it kind of understood Americans
1:18:48
Speaker 3: kind of know if you go to a city. of
1:18:50
Speaker 3: almost any population that you're more than likely going to
1:18:53
Speaker 3: be on camera?
1:18:54
Speaker 4: Yeah, but it's who's accessing that information. Like now Flock
1:18:57
Speaker 4: has made it so that you have to have like
1:18:59
Speaker 4: a case number. to be able to access the cameras
1:19:01
Speaker 4: before that you could just willy nilly log in.
1:19:05
Speaker 5: It was warrantless.
1:19:06
Speaker 8: Wow.
1:19:07
Speaker 4: You didn't need a reason, but now that they're finding
1:19:09
Speaker 4: that there are too many law enforcement officers who are
1:19:12
Speaker 4: using this to stalk people, stalk X's.
1:19:15
Speaker 3: Um, even the governor came out and said something about it.
1:19:17
Speaker 5: And that's why I think this decision has been made
1:19:19
Speaker 5: is because the governor just last week came out and said,
1:19:22
Speaker 5: I think there's just too many of them. And it's
1:19:24
Speaker 5: an election year.
1:19:25
Speaker 11: Any call for the legislature to take action in Florida,
1:19:28
Speaker 11: you know, uh, F dot is under his purview.
1:19:31
Speaker 3: So yeah.
1:19:34
Speaker 8: Wow.
1:19:34
Speaker 3: They're taking the actions they can.
1:19:36
Speaker 11: So it would be different if, if you needed a
1:19:38
Speaker 11: warrant to search this and you had it tracked and
1:19:42
Speaker 11: misuse was dealt with firing, if not criminal charges, you know,
1:19:47
Speaker 11: then let's talk, but it's too, it's too much powerful
1:19:51
Speaker 11: to available to open.
1:19:53
Speaker 3: Have other States made this announcement like this? Because we
1:19:55
Speaker 3: know that internally, like in counties, uh, States are broken
1:19:58
Speaker 3: down into counties. Counties can make decisions like that. They
1:20:01
Speaker 3: can say, hey, in our county, we're not going to
1:20:03
Speaker 3: use slot cameras. There's not money in the budget for it.
1:20:05
Speaker 3: We don't have money for the whatever the case may be.
1:20:07
Speaker 3: You can say whatever you want at that point or
1:20:09
Speaker 3: just say, hey, look, we don't want them here. But
1:20:11
Speaker 3: in the states that don't have a state that stands
1:20:14
Speaker 3: up and says, hey, look, you can only use these
1:20:17
Speaker 3: in certain areas, these certain ways. The counties working autonomously
1:20:21
Speaker 3: in those areas could still do it, though, right? But
1:20:24
Speaker 3: as long as that road doesn't pass through their county,
1:20:26
Speaker 3: I mean, I don't know.
1:20:27
Speaker 11: I would guess if anytime you're running against the will
1:20:30
Speaker 11: of the capital of that state, specifically for us, Tallahassee,
1:20:35
Speaker 11: they're coming out against it now. So if you have
1:20:37
Speaker 11: a county who wants to still continue to use them,
1:20:41
Speaker 11: they're going to have to find where they're allowed to
1:20:43
Speaker 11: put them. But keep in mind, as we talk about
1:20:47
Speaker 11: this back to Amendment 3 in the election, if counties
1:20:51
Speaker 11: and cities and municipalities are forced to go to Tallahassee
1:20:56
Speaker 11: for shortages, it just gives the Tallahassee more power to say,
1:21:04
Speaker 11: we don't like what you're doing in your county, in
1:21:06
Speaker 11: your city, in your burg. You know, you got to
1:21:09
Speaker 11: kind of.
1:21:10
Speaker 3: Yeah, I just looked over to the texting service and
1:21:12
Speaker 3: somebody said they do way more than just reading license plates.
1:21:14
Speaker 3: What would that be, though, other than identifying you as
1:21:17
Speaker 3: a person? Yeah, facial recognition. Yeah, your license plate has
1:21:20
Speaker 3: that information, though, unless your license plate was stolen, correct? Well,
1:21:23
Speaker 3: or what if you're driving your wife's car?
1:21:25
Speaker 1: Yeah.
1:21:26
Speaker 4: I mean, they identify who is driving, dents on the car,
1:21:29
Speaker 4: make and model. um, what you're wearing, maybe even the
1:21:33
Speaker 4: devices in the car with you.
1:21:35
Speaker 11: It's, it's an extension of, of the, we've been going
1:21:39
Speaker 11: down this path for a while with, with e-pass, right?
1:21:42
Speaker 3: I love it.
1:21:42
Speaker 11: I've been an e-pass user since the nineties. And it's
1:21:46
Speaker 11: extremely convenient. Then when you see readers pop up on
1:21:49
Speaker 11: different roads, it's like, wait, this isn't a toll road.
1:21:52
Speaker 11: Why is there one on Maitland Boulevard? You know, which
1:21:55
Speaker 11: is right by us. And so they're able to, Track movement.
1:21:59
Speaker 11: And then it's like, OK, now my question is, who
1:22:02
Speaker 11: has access to that data that can look up what
1:22:04
Speaker 11: my transponder is and where I've been traveling?
1:22:07
Speaker 3: You know, most people, I think if you were to
1:22:09
Speaker 3: pitch them the argument, say, hey, look, these are going
1:22:10
Speaker 3: to be great for the safety of our communities. Most
1:22:13
Speaker 3: people would be like, high five. Yeah, let's go do it.
1:22:15
Speaker 3: I mean, what do you think really is the fact
1:22:17
Speaker 3: it's the access that's driving people to really be, you know,
1:22:21
Speaker 3: kind of anti these? Well, that just is it just
1:22:24
Speaker 3: the general loss of privacy?
1:22:26
Speaker 4: No, I think it has to do with the fact that, again,
1:22:29
Speaker 4: I don't think anyone is against giving law enforcement another tool.
1:22:34
Speaker 4: But when we're not told that this is going to
1:22:37
Speaker 4: be collecting not just your license plate, but everything from
1:22:40
Speaker 4: facial recognition.
1:22:41
Speaker 5: And we have no say. I think that's the issue.
1:22:44
Speaker 4: And then you compound that with hearing how many times
1:22:47
Speaker 4: it's been misused by the very.
1:22:49
Speaker 5: People we're told to just trust.
1:22:51
Speaker 3: Right.
1:22:53
Speaker 5: That's the problem. We know we're in a surveillance society.
1:22:56
Speaker 5: There's no way around that.
1:22:57
Speaker 3: Yeah.
1:22:58
Speaker 4: It's the fact that some guy in California could have
1:23:00
Speaker 4: accessed these flat cameras in central Florida with no law
1:23:03
Speaker 4: enforcement need.
1:23:05
Speaker 5: Because it was warrantless.
1:23:06
Speaker 3: Was that a hack, though?
1:23:07
Speaker 1: No.
1:23:07
Speaker 3: In other words, was the access to it illegal? No,
1:23:10
Speaker 3: that's the problem.
1:23:11
Speaker 5: You just got to log.
1:23:12
Speaker 3: On to Flock.com and just go find this person, and
1:23:14
Speaker 3: that's what would happen?
1:23:15
Speaker 5: If you had the credentials, you were in law enforcement again.
1:23:18
Speaker 4: Look, you had one cop that stalked his ex-wife over
1:23:21
Speaker 4: 717 times.
1:23:24
Speaker 11: Also, we had the argument back with the Patriot Act
1:23:27
Speaker 11: and the amount of surveillance and the information out there.
1:23:31
Speaker 11: And there's a famous quote by Benjamin Franklin. It says
1:23:34
Speaker 11: those who would give up essential liberty to purchase a
1:23:37
Speaker 11: little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety.
1:23:41
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah.
1:23:42
Speaker 3: That's the thing is, I wonder if people's attitudes would
1:23:46
Speaker 3: change if, like you said, Jack, it required a warrant
1:23:50
Speaker 3: to get information from that camera's database. Like, hey, look,
1:23:53
Speaker 3: I have a warrant. We have evidence that shows this
1:23:56
Speaker 3: person is involved in this or this or is a fugitive,
1:24:01
Speaker 3: whatever the case may be. We are going to access
1:24:03
Speaker 3: this plot camera to find information on this particular person.
1:24:06
Speaker 3: You can see, because at that point, there's a paper
1:24:09
Speaker 3: trail of who's been accessing the cameras for what, right?
1:24:13
Speaker 4: Now they've got that in place. Now you have to
1:24:16
Speaker 4: have a special code. And a reason to get into
1:24:19
Speaker 4: the database.
1:24:19
Speaker 3: And that way it tracks who's been using it.
1:24:21
Speaker 4: But again, it's Flock addressing people going, whoa, wait a minute.
1:24:25
Speaker 4: You're telling us just be trusting that this is a
1:24:27
Speaker 4: tool that's helping law enforcement. And yet they're the ones
1:24:29
Speaker 4: using it to track exes, ex-wives, ex-husbands.
1:24:33
Speaker 3: And didn't the company owner actually come out and say
1:24:35
Speaker 3: one of the things too? They maybe approached this wrong
1:24:37
Speaker 3: or something. I remember that as well. Like the people
1:24:39
Speaker 3: who own or invented Flock. I believe came out when
1:24:42
Speaker 3: this thing started heating up and saying, hey, look, I
1:24:44
Speaker 3: guess we need to rethink how this is used or something.
1:24:47
Speaker 3: I remember that. Well, yeah.
1:24:49
Speaker 5: That's the whole reason they put the code in there.
1:24:51
Speaker 11: Yeah, the backlash happened. Then they're like now trying to
1:24:54
Speaker 11: fix it. But it's gotten so big and so many
1:24:58
Speaker 11: people are opposed to it that. That's why you see
1:25:02
Speaker 11: the governor of Florida acting in the way he did
1:25:04
Speaker 11: and FDOT following suit.
1:25:06
Speaker 4: And think of what it means for a company like
1:25:08
Speaker 4: Flock with cameras all over the country being willing to
1:25:11
Speaker 4: go to little Olavito to explain their side of the story.
1:25:15
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
1:25:16
Speaker 5: They're trying to get ahead of the storm, and the
1:25:17
Speaker 5: storm's already bigger than that.
1:25:19
Speaker 11: And we've dealt with this with the red light cameras.
1:25:23
Speaker 11: Red light cameras are private companies working with the government,
1:25:27
Speaker 11: collecting that data, sending it to the government, and then
1:25:30
Speaker 11: they issue citations based on what they see. This is
1:25:33
Speaker 11: another private company collecting all this data, and what– stops
1:25:39
Speaker 11: who's protecting that data and who has access to it.
1:25:42
Speaker 3: And what we found is way too many people had
1:25:44
Speaker 3: access to it.
1:25:45
Speaker 5: Exactly.
1:25:45
Speaker 4: And as more governments now potentially, if Amendment 3 passes,
1:25:49
Speaker 4: look for new sources of revenue, I wouldn't be surprised
1:25:52
Speaker 4: if more of these kind of contracts are greenlit as
1:25:54
Speaker 4: a way of getting in that extra revenue that local
1:25:58
Speaker 4: governments just can't rely on anymore.
1:26:02
Speaker 3: Somebody just said, hey, do a Google search. What does
1:26:04
Speaker 3: a flock camera actually do? It says that we're spreading
1:26:07
Speaker 3: wrong information. I mean, aren't we just basically repeating what
1:26:12
Speaker 3: we've heard from legislators? I mean, are we really spreading
1:26:15
Speaker 3: anything wrong here?
1:26:16
Speaker 4: I don't really think that many legislators are aware of
1:26:18
Speaker 4: what flat cameras do, quite honestly.
1:26:20
Speaker 5: They're kind of put in. It doesn't seem that there's
1:26:22
Speaker 5: a lot of oversight.
1:26:23
Speaker 11: I mean, the only thing, it's a texter who said
1:26:25
Speaker 11: that it has facial recognition.
1:26:28
Speaker 7: Yeah.
1:26:28
Speaker 3: I don't know.
1:26:29
Speaker 12: Maybe it does.
1:26:30
Speaker 3: Maybe it doesn't. Well, I mean, we know that the cameras,
1:26:33
Speaker 3: I don't know if they have facial recognition, but I
1:26:35
Speaker 3: know the cameras are so clear at some of the
1:26:37
Speaker 3: toll booth areas. We've seen that happen. You've seen stills
1:26:40
Speaker 3: from there where they can definitely tell who's in the car.
1:26:42
Speaker 4: So somebody texted earlier, 77031. It tracks RFID, Bluetooth, Wi-Fi.
1:26:48
Speaker 4: Someone stole it and hacked in to show all the
1:26:50
Speaker 4: data it collects. It's not just an ALPR.
1:26:53
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah. All right, 407-916-1041. Text us at 77031. Back
1:26:55
Speaker 3: in a sec with more of the Jim Colbert Show.
1:26:56
Speaker 3: Stay put.
1:27:07
Speaker 2: Still to come legal stories and more with ray trendley
1:27:09
Speaker 2: from tk law today at 6 20 on the jim colbert.
1:27:12
Speaker 8: Show hey guys i hope.
1:27:16
Speaker 12: You guys are doing well so you guys talking about
1:27:19
Speaker 12: flack and the ceo and everything like that i don't
1:27:21
Speaker 12: know if you've seen the interviews with this guy man
1:27:23
Speaker 12: this guy is a smug a-hole man And I'm so
1:27:26
Speaker 12: glad that every contract of his is getting canceled because
1:27:29
Speaker 12: he literally went on an interview and said that if
1:27:32
Speaker 12: you do de-flock, basically take flocks.
1:27:35
Speaker 3: Out, you're a terrorist and you're too woke. Thanks. Bye.
1:27:40
Speaker 3: What's going on?
1:27:41
Speaker 16: Just also to add, them flock cameras, like, yeah, we
1:27:45
Speaker 16: can acquire them. You know, I've heard there's not too
1:27:49
Speaker 16: much to them to just hack into them easy. But
1:27:52
Speaker 16: what if China, what if, you know, the Middle East,
1:27:55
Speaker 16: what if... countries where I war with hack into those
1:27:58
Speaker 16: and they're watching the president move they're watching other officials
1:28:03
Speaker 16: move and stuff like that just makes them easy targets
1:28:07
Speaker 16: you know you got undercover cops they'll get marked.
1:28:11
Speaker 21: Hey JCS crew Michael P checking in my whole thing
1:28:16
Speaker 21: with those block cameras and cameras in general out in
1:28:19
Speaker 21: public is I have twin seven year olds and those
1:28:23
Speaker 21: girls feed the world to me and If anything happened
1:28:27
Speaker 21: to them, I would want a camera every 10 feet
1:28:31
Speaker 21: to find out where they are and what's happening.
1:28:37
Speaker 1: Hey, Jimmy, just so you know.
1:28:40
Speaker 3: Almost every U.S.
1:28:42
Speaker 9: Highway in the state of Florida also has a state
1:28:46
Speaker 9: road designation.
1:28:48
Speaker 8: Like I-4 is state road 600.
1:28:49
Speaker 3: Did not know that.
1:28:50
Speaker 1: 1792 is state road 400.
1:28:51
Speaker 3: Did not know that.
1:28:52
Speaker 8: That's wild.
1:28:58
Speaker 3: Thanks for that heads up.
1:28:59
Speaker 7: Jim, I think what the issue is is we are
1:29:01
Speaker 7: becoming a surveillance state. We already have surveillance, and it's
1:29:06
Speaker 7: just more and more and more, little by little, what's next.
1:29:11
Speaker 7: I mean, who knows how more invasive this government can
1:29:16
Speaker 7: get besides... very more invasive, and then what? We complain
1:29:22
Speaker 7: and we look at China as being our surveillance state,
1:29:24
Speaker 7: but look at what.
1:29:25
Speaker 3: We're doing right now. Yeah, I mean, how much more
1:29:27
Speaker 3: can it do? I mean, look, how much more intrusive
1:29:30
Speaker 3: can it be? Cameras in your house? I mean, that's
1:29:38
Speaker 3: the only place left, right? Because if you're in public,
1:29:41
Speaker 3: like when I walk out of this building today and
1:29:43
Speaker 3: I walk across this parking lot, I'm going to be
1:29:45
Speaker 3: on camera somewhere. The security cameras for this building, for
1:29:49
Speaker 3: the building next to us, and can I tell you,
1:29:51
Speaker 3: that's probably in almost every neighborhood in America. Whether it
1:29:55
Speaker 3: be a ring camera or a flock camera or whatever,
1:29:58
Speaker 3: even on your own property in your own front yard,
1:30:01
Speaker 3: you are more than likely going to be on camera.
1:30:04
Speaker 3: Your home would be the only place where you would
1:30:07
Speaker 3: be theoretically safe from the intrusive eye of any camera
1:30:11
Speaker 3: that you don't control.
1:30:12
Speaker 7: Right.
1:30:13
Speaker 11: And some people actually put cameras inside their home as well. Well,
1:30:16
Speaker 11: I know that for a fact. I mean, I know
1:30:17
Speaker 11: people who do, but yeah. So then it's who has
1:30:21
Speaker 11: access to that because you know, with ring doorbell, you're, you're,
1:30:25
Speaker 11: you're using their network.
1:30:26
Speaker 3: Yes. It's like, I don't know.
1:30:28
Speaker 9: Yeah.
1:30:29
Speaker 3: Who else can see that?
1:30:30
Speaker 11: I know I get to see who's at my door
1:30:32
Speaker 11: and in my driveway, but I don't know who else
1:30:35
Speaker 11: can see that.
1:30:35
Speaker 3: And even then, those people are filming, those ring people
1:30:38
Speaker 3: are filming people who are driving by their house who
1:30:41
Speaker 3: don't know, who maybe don't want to be on camera,
1:30:43
Speaker 3: walking on the sidewalk. who don't really deserve or want
1:30:46
Speaker 3: to be on camera. They're minding their own business, but
1:30:48
Speaker 3: chances are, if you walk through any neighborhood in America,
1:30:51
Speaker 3: more than likely, almost every step of your journey is
1:30:54
Speaker 3: going to be on camera somewhere, somehow.
1:30:56
Speaker 11: And then some people say, well, you're in public, so
1:30:59
Speaker 11: you have no right to privacy if you are in public.
1:31:02
Speaker 3: And that's the point. Like, where does the privacy state
1:31:04
Speaker 3: come to an end? Because the only place right now
1:31:07
Speaker 3: that that seems to be the case, by the way,
1:31:08
Speaker 3: your car is not safe either. You know that, right?
1:31:11
Speaker 7: Right.
1:31:11
Speaker 3: I mean, you're in a car. The fly camera's going
1:31:13
Speaker 3: to see you in your car. They're going to know
1:31:15
Speaker 3: where you are. They're going to know if there's somebody
1:31:16
Speaker 3: with you. May not be able to tell exactly who
1:31:18
Speaker 3: that is, but we can more than likely tell how
1:31:20
Speaker 3: big they are if they're male, female.
1:31:23
Speaker 7: I mean.
1:31:24
Speaker 11: Should you have a right to leave your home, go
1:31:26
Speaker 11: to the store and come back without the government knowing
1:31:29
Speaker 11: about it?
1:31:29
Speaker 15: Yes.
1:31:30
Speaker 3: You should have that right. You think so? Yeah, for sure.
1:31:33
Speaker 3: I think everybody in America would kind of agree with that.
1:31:35
Speaker 11: Well, not if you're in favor of the flock cameras,
1:31:38
Speaker 11: because then it's tracking that movement.
1:31:41
Speaker 3: But that's the whole, you know, for years, that's the
1:31:44
Speaker 3: balance though, right? You know, where do you, I mean,
1:31:46
Speaker 3: it's just like what you're saying, where do you kind
1:31:48
Speaker 3: of understand that at some point in your life, You know,
1:31:52
Speaker 3: the government isn't going to be able to take care
1:31:54
Speaker 3: of you every minute of your life. Like, you know,
1:31:56
Speaker 3: they can't guarantee. And by the way, just because you're
1:31:59
Speaker 3: on camera doesn't guarantee your safety. Yeah, it does not. Right.
1:32:03
Speaker 3: It's always sold as safety. But you being on camera
1:32:06
Speaker 3: at all times does not guarantee your safety.
1:32:08
Speaker 5: Right.
1:32:09
Speaker 3: It doesn't guarantee you aren't going to be robbed or
1:32:11
Speaker 3: mugged or run over or whatever the case may be.
1:32:13
Speaker 3: It just means we'll see it.
1:32:14
Speaker 1: Yeah.
1:32:15
Speaker 11: That's all it really means. We'll have record of it.
1:32:17
Speaker 11: But if your victim or someone in your family is
1:32:20
Speaker 11: a victim, like Michael P. was pointing out in his
1:32:22
Speaker 11: talk back, you're going to want the police to have
1:32:25
Speaker 11: every tool available to them to bring those people to justice.
1:32:29
Speaker 3: And what you have to ask yourself is at what cost?
1:32:32
Speaker 3: At what cost do I want that protection that that provides?
1:32:37
Speaker 3: If that cost is understanding that at all times in
1:32:40
Speaker 3: my life, outside of being inside my home, I'm going
1:32:43
Speaker 3: to be surveilled. What are the tradeoffs? I mean, what
1:32:52
Speaker 3: are the tradeoffs? There's no great answer to that question, right?
1:32:54
Speaker 11: It's like, again, with how much of your rights are
1:32:57
Speaker 11: you willing to give up for safety? It's like, well,
1:32:59
Speaker 11: the police could easily say, well, if everyone turned in
1:33:02
Speaker 11: their gun, it would be safer.
1:33:04
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, yeah. We'd have less crime. Yeah, but we
1:33:07
Speaker 3: know that the only people that would do that are
1:33:08
Speaker 3: the people who wanted to adhere to a safe regimen
1:33:11
Speaker 3: of life. Criminals aren't turning their guns in.
1:33:13
Speaker 11: The point being, how much of your rights are you
1:33:15
Speaker 11: willing to trade for that safety?
1:33:17
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, I mean, I don't know, man.
1:33:21
Speaker 3: And the thing is, is we don't have a big
1:33:23
Speaker 3: say in that. We don't have any say in that.
1:33:26
Speaker 5: That's the problem.
1:33:26
Speaker 3: That's the whole voting aspect. And I think we do
1:33:28
Speaker 3: a little bit because obviously it's come down. So obviously
1:33:31
Speaker 3: the outrage has caused them to make a change in
1:33:33
Speaker 3: that technology. So you do have some say. You do.
1:33:36
Speaker 3: And that's the power. It's political will.
1:33:39
Speaker 1: Right.
1:33:39
Speaker 11: So it's enough people, you know, where it really crosses
1:33:43
Speaker 11: party lines who are upset about something. And then you
1:33:47
Speaker 11: see political, you know, politicians trying to act to be
1:33:52
Speaker 11: in positive light with these people. So they adopt policies
1:33:56
Speaker 11: that would please them.
1:33:58
Speaker 3: Deb, do you even think this is a political issue?
1:34:01
Speaker 5: Without a doubt.
1:34:02
Speaker 3: You think so? Yeah, absolutely.
1:34:03
Speaker 5: If it wasn't, the governor wouldn't have.
1:34:06
Speaker 4: After just saying last week he thought there were too
1:34:08
Speaker 4: many flock cameras on Monday before the end of the day,
1:34:11
Speaker 4: FDOT issues up a memorandum to say, all right, we're
1:34:14
Speaker 4: canceling all of these that are on state roads.
1:34:16
Speaker 3: Yeah, but I don't think flock cameras are only in
1:34:18
Speaker 3: red states though, right?
1:34:19
Speaker 5: No, no, no.
1:34:20
Speaker 3: It's not that.
1:34:21
Speaker 5: It's not that.
1:34:22
Speaker 3: Go ahead.
1:34:23
Speaker 5: Again, the issue is that it's a third-party vendor. So
1:34:26
Speaker 5: you're right. We do get a voice, but that voice
1:34:28
Speaker 5: is only in the form of outrage.
1:34:30
Speaker 8: Right, yeah, yeah.
1:34:31
Speaker 4: Why couldn't we have been a partner with this on
1:34:34
Speaker 4: the front end when they're putting these in? Again, the
1:34:37
Speaker 4: adage is always, well, if you don't have anything to hide,
1:34:39
Speaker 4: you shouldn't be worried about it.
1:34:40
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah.
1:34:41
Speaker 5: That's not the argument with this.
1:34:42
Speaker 3: It's not the argument.
1:34:43
Speaker 15: You're right.
1:34:43
Speaker 3: This is why this should be a voter issue, right?
1:34:45
Speaker 3: And when I say it's a voter issue, you should
1:34:48
Speaker 3: take 60% of the state to get that through?
1:34:50
Speaker 11: And by political issue, I don't mean, oh, this is
1:34:52
Speaker 11: a Republican thing or a Democratic thing. No, it's a
1:34:55
Speaker 11: politician seeing what the majority of the people want and
1:35:00
Speaker 11: then trying to cater to that majority, seeing that, oh,
1:35:04
Speaker 11: this is highly unpopular. You know, I'm going to, you know,
1:35:09
Speaker 11: kind of join that argument and then. Now we see
1:35:13
Speaker 11: them being repealed in the state of Florida.
1:35:16
Speaker 4: Again, there's a reason why the flock CEO is in
1:35:19
Speaker 4: a little town called Oviedo making a case for his
1:35:22
Speaker 4: company's product.
1:35:23
Speaker 3: Yeah.
1:35:23
Speaker 11: I don't know if the CEO, I think they said spokesperson,
1:35:26
Speaker 11: unless you saw it was CEO.
1:35:27
Speaker 5: I did not.
1:35:27
Speaker 4: But again, you know, for them to now take the
1:35:30
Speaker 4: steps to actually go into communities and address these concerns
1:35:33
Speaker 4: when like the talk back earlier said, guys, a little
1:35:36
Speaker 4: bit of an entitled a-hole, right?
1:35:38
Speaker 5: Like, hey, like it or lump it.
1:35:40
Speaker 3: Yeah.
1:35:41
Speaker 5: You know, shove it. If you don't want these, then
1:35:43
Speaker 5: you're a terrorist.
1:35:44
Speaker 3: And, you know, somebody just texted.
1:35:45
Speaker 5: It's not that cut and dry.
1:35:46
Speaker 3: And somebody just texted and said, you know, and who
1:35:48
Speaker 3: pays for all this? Well, you know, these are tax
1:35:50
Speaker 3: dollars going into buying these cameras, right? Into your different communities.
1:35:54
Speaker 3: It seems that way. Whether it be Oviedo, Bethel, you know,
1:35:57
Speaker 3: Mount Dora, Eustis, you know, Kissimmee, whatever. Those municipalities make
1:36:03
Speaker 3: the decision in their budget to buy those cameras and
1:36:06
Speaker 3: then install them, right?
1:36:07
Speaker 18: Right.
1:36:08
Speaker 3: I mean, is this one of those amendments where you're like, okay,
1:36:11
Speaker 3: let's introduce this to Florida and see what they think.
1:36:14
Speaker 3: If it can get 60% approval, then we'll put them up.
1:36:16
Speaker 3: If not, maybe it's not part of that world. But
1:36:19
Speaker 3: they didn't even wait to do that. They just put
1:36:21
Speaker 3: them up. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Didn't ask anybody, right?
1:36:24
Speaker 19: No.
1:36:24
Speaker 11: People in power don't like asking people not in power
1:36:28
Speaker 11: on what they should and shouldn't do. That's a permission before– Well, yeah,
1:36:33
Speaker 11: asking forgiveness instead of permission. But just like our legislators,
1:36:38
Speaker 11: they're not keen on the people putting amendments on the
1:36:42
Speaker 11: ballot and us having say, which is why they– do
1:36:45
Speaker 11: everything they can to make it harder for us to
1:36:47
Speaker 11: get amendments on the ballot.
1:36:49
Speaker 4: I've never seen an openly hostile state government like I
1:36:52
Speaker 4: have in Tallahassee.
1:36:54
Speaker 8: Yeah.
1:36:54
Speaker 11: We saw it with back when Jeb Bush was governor
1:36:57
Speaker 11: with a classroom amendment size where they kicked it back.
1:37:00
Speaker 11: I don't believe the people knew what they were voting for.
1:37:03
Speaker 11: So I want to put it on the ballot again.
1:37:04
Speaker 1: Right.
1:37:05
Speaker 13: Yeah.
1:37:05
Speaker 3: I mean, come on.
1:37:06
Speaker 8: Yeah.
1:37:07
Speaker 11: They with marijuana, medical marijuana, they fought and they kind
1:37:11
Speaker 11: of dragged their heels, dragged their feet on that until
1:37:14
Speaker 11: that was finally implemented.
1:37:16
Speaker 4: Citizen led initiatives have been in the state constitution since
1:37:19
Speaker 4: 1968 in Florida. It wasn't until this last legislative session
1:37:23
Speaker 4: where they made it so that you almost had to
1:37:24
Speaker 4: have a million dollar bond. Everyone collecting signatures had a
1:37:28
Speaker 4: background check. They have put up so many roadblocks. We've
1:37:31
Speaker 4: heard about citizens traveling for hours to be able to
1:37:34
Speaker 4: speak at these public comment periods in Tallahassee.
1:37:36
Speaker 3: To be shut down for two minutes.
1:37:37
Speaker 5: To be shut down, only to be told they have
1:37:39
Speaker 5: 30 seconds to talk. It really has flipped.
1:37:42
Speaker 4: I hate to say it, and I hate to see
1:37:44
Speaker 4: it especially, where lawmakers forget that they were put into
1:37:47
Speaker 4: office by the people who are sitting in those rooms
1:37:50
Speaker 4: looking at them.
1:37:50
Speaker 1: Yeah.
1:37:51
Speaker 3: But then they want to stay there, and that's when
1:37:53
Speaker 3: it starts morphing, right? Because once you get there, getting
1:37:55
Speaker 3: there is one thing. Now you've got to stay there,
1:37:57
Speaker 3: and then you have to go to your constituents and
1:37:59
Speaker 3: listen to them. That's when the bias kind of comes
1:38:01
Speaker 3: in where– certain groups of people can actually have maybe
1:38:04
Speaker 3: more of a persuasive argument than others.
1:38:06
Speaker 5: Yeah, those are called lobbyists.
1:38:07
Speaker 3: Yeah, lobbyists and donors.
1:38:08
Speaker 5: With big pockets.
1:38:09
Speaker 3: Yeah, their top priority is retaining power. Exactly.
1:38:12
Speaker 11: Is getting reelected and maintaining the power that I've accumulated,
1:38:16
Speaker 11: maybe getting more power.
1:38:18
Speaker 4: Which is why, again, you can't help it when you
1:38:21
Speaker 4: say those words, Jack. Look at the support that Byron
1:38:24
Speaker 4: Donald showed just a couple of months ago for AI
1:38:27
Speaker 4: data centers. So it's kind of really hard. to figure
1:38:30
Speaker 4: out where on this fence do you really lie? Because
1:38:33
Speaker 4: weeks ago, I mean, you talked about support for super
1:38:37
Speaker 4: data centers, and now you're saying that you won't allow
1:38:39
Speaker 4: them to.
1:38:40
Speaker 5: To be built in your Florida.
1:38:41
Speaker 3: You know, and politicians have the ability to react immediately
1:38:44
Speaker 3: now because back in the day before social media and
1:38:46
Speaker 3: before we could see outrage happen immediately, you had to
1:38:50
Speaker 3: wait and kind of get feedback on something like this,
1:38:52
Speaker 3: whether a newspaper articles, whatever the case may be. But
1:38:54
Speaker 3: now politicians basically have a living litmus test in front
1:38:57
Speaker 3: of them with social media. When you see video after
1:39:00
Speaker 3: video of somebody pulling a flat camera down or painting
1:39:03
Speaker 3: it or destroying it or even videos to show you
1:39:05
Speaker 3: how to do it without being seen doing it, like
1:39:08
Speaker 3: literally like anarchist cookbook kind of stuff.
1:39:10
Speaker 5: Oh, yeah, all over Instagram.
1:39:11
Speaker 3: Saying, hey, look, I'm not saying you should do this,
1:39:13
Speaker 3: but if you do this and do this and do this,
1:39:15
Speaker 3: it's pretty easy to bring a flat camera down. I mean,
1:39:17
Speaker 3: you know, at that point, you as a politician, you
1:39:19
Speaker 3: can go, oh, you know, throw in the brakes, you know,
1:39:22
Speaker 3: reformulate where we stand on this and move forward because
1:39:24
Speaker 3: I see this outrage like that's never happened in politics
1:39:27
Speaker 3: before or where they have instant access to opinions that
1:39:31
Speaker 3: they can court. They can kind of couture their opinion
1:39:34
Speaker 3: or policy around what people are reacting to immediately.
1:39:37
Speaker 4: I think the earlier primaries also had something to do
1:39:40
Speaker 4: with that. Lawmakers who didn't didn't primary as early saw others.
1:39:45
Speaker 5: Whose support for AI data centers and flat cameras losing
1:39:48
Speaker 5: their primaries are like, well, yeah, yeah, yeah. Better change
1:39:50
Speaker 5: my messaging.
1:39:52
Speaker 3: Yeah.
1:39:52
Speaker 11: The messaging isn't changing, but the money is still going
1:39:55
Speaker 11: into those accounts, you know, uh, funding these politicians.
1:40:00
Speaker 1: Yeah.
1:40:00
Speaker 4: Again, I mean, there's a whole reason why state government
1:40:03
Speaker 4: decided to go after its own state counties and cities
1:40:06
Speaker 4: instead of going after property insurance because they're lobbyists or
1:40:09
Speaker 4: who paying their, their, Campaign contributions.
1:40:12
Speaker 3: I wonder how many of those are in Florida right now.
1:40:14
Speaker 3: How many flock cameras are in the state right now?
1:40:17
Speaker 3: How many in Orlando right now? Have you ever looked
1:40:19
Speaker 3: at the map? Yeah, I just actually, just somebody sent
1:40:21
Speaker 3: me a text on the map. I didn't get a
1:40:23
Speaker 3: chance to look at it because we were coming back
1:40:24
Speaker 3: on the air. How many are just Orlando proper? Like
1:40:27
Speaker 3: the threads, the tri-canon, geez louise. The Tri-County area.
1:40:31
Speaker 4: What's scary is to see how quickly it went from
1:40:34
Speaker 4: just a few flock cameras around the country to, holy cow,
1:40:38
Speaker 4: everything is covered by flock cameras.
1:40:40
Speaker 3: And by the way, this is not a red light
1:40:41
Speaker 3: where you have to shut the intersection down for a
1:40:43
Speaker 3: week to hang a red light when something changes. This
1:40:45
Speaker 3: is like... You stick a pole in the ground, you
1:40:46
Speaker 3: put the thing up there, you get a power source,
1:40:48
Speaker 3: and you log into it, and off you go. They
1:40:50
Speaker 3: can put 10 of these things up in an hour,
1:40:52
Speaker 3: it seems like, across the state if they want to do.
1:40:55
Speaker 11: So in Florida, it's estimated between 8,000 and 10,000 cameras
1:40:59
Speaker 11: just in the state of Florida, more than 1,000 in
1:41:03
Speaker 11: the central Florida area.
1:41:05
Speaker 1: Whew.
1:41:09
Speaker 3: I would think it would probably be impossible for you
1:41:11
Speaker 3: to get from your home to your place of work
1:41:13
Speaker 3: or your favorite places of entertainment or shopping without being
1:41:16
Speaker 3: on multiple of those, right? Obviously. Sure. Probably a three-camera
1:41:19
Speaker 3: shoot of your trip. Yeah. Well, we'll see how this goes.
1:41:24
Speaker 5: Let's just hope you're creative when you pick your nose.
1:41:26
Speaker 3: I would love to hear from some officers. I know
1:41:28
Speaker 3: we have a lot of cops that listen to this show.
1:41:30
Speaker 3: I would love to hear from some of them on
1:41:32
Speaker 3: how they kind of balance this because I agree with you, Jack.
1:41:35
Speaker 3: I mean, when you said earlier, who doesn't want a
1:41:37
Speaker 3: tool that would help you be more efficient as an officer?
1:41:39
Speaker 3: It only makes you look better. It only makes your
1:41:41
Speaker 3: department look better. But in the same sense, the people
1:41:44
Speaker 3: who are cops when they're off aren't cops. And I'm
1:41:46
Speaker 3: sure they deal with the same stuff with privacy issues
1:41:48
Speaker 3: that we do when they're not wearing the badge.
1:41:50
Speaker 11: Yeah, when you are chasing a suspect or a bad
1:41:53
Speaker 11: guy and you can actually track his whereabouts, yes, you.
1:41:57
Speaker 3: Want to be able to do that. But how do
1:42:00
Speaker 3: they balance that as a private citizen once they take
1:42:02
Speaker 3: their uniform off? And there you go.
1:42:04
Speaker 11: And that technology, if the safeties aren't built in, then
1:42:07
Speaker 11: it forces people off. to kind of maintain that. And
1:42:10
Speaker 11: what we've learned is there's a lot of people willing to,
1:42:13
Speaker 11: you know, step over the line and say, run my wife's,
1:42:16
Speaker 11: run my wife's plate.
1:42:18
Speaker 3: Where's she at? Yeah, yeah, yeah. What's this hoe doing?
1:42:22
Speaker 8: Yeah.
1:42:22
Speaker 3: All right.
1:42:23
Speaker 10: 407-916-1041.
1:42:23
Speaker 3: Text us 77031. Load them up, guys. Time for trivia.
1:42:24
Speaker 3: We'll do that next.
1:42:26
Speaker 5: Yes.
1:42:27
Speaker 19: You are now the victim of big processed food.
1:42:31
Speaker 7: If you weren't already, by the way, they have found
1:42:34
Speaker 7: the one flavor that pushes your button.
1:42:37
Speaker 5: And it's designed to push your button, as is.
1:42:40
Speaker 3: All of them. More, more, more, more, more.
1:42:44
Speaker 1: Run for your life.
1:42:46
Speaker 3: Is there a specific food he's talking about? Yeah, your Oreo, apple.
1:42:51
Speaker 3: I just had one. I was going to say Pepsi.
1:42:53
Speaker 3: And then you talked about it like you were a
1:42:54
Speaker 3: heroin junkie. And by one, I mean maybe another. Who knows?
1:42:58
Speaker 5: Maybe.
1:42:59

1:43:44
Speaker 5: Let's go two.
1:43:45
Speaker 3: Two sounds good. That is Howie. Howie, how you doing?
1:43:49
Speaker 7: Good, Jimmy.
1:43:50
Speaker 3: Well, I'm glad to hear that. Howie, want to play
1:43:52
Speaker 3: a little game with us?
1:43:54
Speaker 14: Sure.
1:43:54
Speaker 3: All right, let's do it then. Is he the Pile Master?
1:43:58
Speaker 8: Or is he the guy who's currently writing today's game?
1:44:00
Speaker 3: Can he be both? Let's find out.
1:44:02
Speaker 8: It's time for JCS Trivias.
1:44:06
Speaker 3: All right, Howie, this is a real easy game, buddy.
1:44:08
Speaker 3: I've got a question here for you. Four answers. One
1:44:11
Speaker 3: of these answers is not true.
1:44:13
Speaker 16: What?
1:44:14
Speaker 3: But if you find that one, I'll send you over
1:44:15
Speaker 3: to see Jack for maybe some Orlando City or Tim
1:44:17
Speaker 3: McGraw tickets. Are you ready?
1:44:20
Speaker 8: I'm ready.
1:44:20
Speaker 3: I'll do my best. Very nice, buddy. On this day
1:44:23
Speaker 3: in 1962, Trinidad and Tobago gained their independence from Great Britain.
1:44:27
Speaker 3: That's right. Here are three fun facts about Trinidad and
1:44:30
Speaker 3: Tobago and one island vacation of a lie. All right, buddy,
1:44:34
Speaker 3: we're talking about the nation Trinidad and Tobago. Which one
1:44:37
Speaker 3: of these is untrue? Number one, Trinidad is known as
1:44:40
Speaker 3: the land of cockatoos because it's home to 18 species
1:44:43
Speaker 3: of them. Number two, the steel drum was invented in
1:44:48
Speaker 3: Trinidad in the 1930s. Number three, the limbo was also
1:44:53
Speaker 3: invented in Trinidad. Or lastly, Trinidad was given its name
1:44:56
Speaker 3: by explorer Christopher Columbus in 1498. Which of those is
1:45:02
Speaker 3: a lie? The limbo. No, that's absolutely true. Oh, wow.
1:45:07
Speaker 3: The limbo dance was invented and still is a thing
1:45:10
Speaker 3: in Trinidad.
1:45:11
Speaker 5: Good times.
1:45:12
Speaker 3: Yeah, absolutely. One, two, three, or excuse me, one, three, four,
1:45:15
Speaker 3: or five?
1:45:15
Speaker 5: Let's go five.
1:45:16
Speaker 3: Five sounds good. That would be Sean. Sean, how you doing?
1:45:21
Speaker 1: Hey, guys.
1:45:22
Speaker 3: Hey, buddy, we're talking about Trinidad and Tobago. Which one
1:45:24
Speaker 3: of these is untrue? Number one, Trinidad is known as
1:45:27
Speaker 3: the land of cockatoos because it's home to 18 species
1:45:30
Speaker 3: of them. Number two, the steel drum was invented in
1:45:33
Speaker 3: Trinidad in the 1930s. Or lastly, Trinidad was given its
1:45:37
Speaker 3: name by explorer Christopher Columbus in 1498. I'm going to
1:45:42
Speaker 3: go with Christopher Columbus. No, that's absolutely true. Christopher Columbus
1:45:48
Speaker 3: did name Trinidad and Tobago. Deborah, one, three, or four?
1:45:53
Speaker 19: Let's go one.
1:45:54
Speaker 3: One sounds good. That's Patty. Patty, how are you?
1:45:57
Speaker 19: I'm good. How are you, Kim?
1:45:58
Speaker 3: Patty, I'm doing great. We're talking about Trinidad and Tobago.
1:46:00
Speaker 3: Which one of these isn't true? You had a 50-50
1:46:02
Speaker 3: shot at making it over to Sea Jack. Here you go.
1:46:04
Speaker 3: Number one, Trinidad is known as the land of cockatoos
1:46:07
Speaker 3: because it's home to 18 species of them, or the
1:46:10
Speaker 3: steel drum was invented in Trinidad in the 1930s. I'm
1:46:13
Speaker 3: going to.
1:46:13
Speaker 13: Say the cockatoos.
1:46:17
Speaker 3: That's the one.
1:46:18
Speaker 8: You're a winner.
1:46:19
Speaker 16: Yay!
1:46:21
Speaker 3: Hey, tell me, what bird is it known as the
1:46:23
Speaker 3: land of?
1:46:27
Speaker 1: Jimbird.
1:46:27
Speaker 3: No, it's the land of hummingbirds. Trinidad and Tobago has
1:46:31
Speaker 3: 18 species of hummingbird that live on the islands.
1:46:34
Speaker 8: Oh, wow.
1:46:35
Speaker 3: And that's why it's known as the land of hummingbirds.
1:46:37
Speaker 11: I don't think Jimbird is a real bird, but Patty,
1:46:39
Speaker 11: I like the fact that you put something out there.
1:46:41
Speaker 3: Yeah, you leaned in. Patty, you are the winner right
1:46:43
Speaker 3: there on line one. The steel drum was invented in
1:46:46
Speaker 3: Trinidad and Tobago. By the way, who could go on
1:46:48
Speaker 3: a cruise without it?
1:46:49
Speaker 5: Yeah, that's true.
1:46:50
Speaker 3: That's how you know you're on a cruise. That's how
1:46:52
Speaker 3: you know, buddy. Listen, you can hear it approaching Mexico
1:46:55
Speaker 3: or the Bahamas. You hear those steel drums going completely bananas.
1:46:59
Speaker 3: A couple other things before we make it to the
1:47:01
Speaker 3: top of the hour. Brandon coming in with some sports,
1:47:03
Speaker 3: and we also have Ray Trimley on the other side
1:47:05
Speaker 3: of the top of the hour. Winning in 1977, the
1:47:08
Speaker 3: very first black mist universe was born in Trinidad.
1:47:12
Speaker 5: I did not know that.
1:47:13
Speaker 3: The world's first protected rainforest was established in 1776 in Tobago.
1:47:21
Speaker 3: And then lastly here, which again, never in a million
1:47:25
Speaker 3: years would have known this. Do you guys think Trinidad
1:47:27
Speaker 3: and Tobago is a rich nation or a poor nation?
1:47:32
Speaker 5: I'm going to say rich.
1:47:34
Speaker 3: I'm going to say poor. Because of gas and oil reserves,
1:47:37
Speaker 3: Trinidad and Tobago is one of the richest countries in
1:47:39
Speaker 3: the entire Caribbean. Really? I'll tell you something else they
1:47:42
Speaker 3: have that's very interesting. I didn't write this down. I
1:47:44
Speaker 3: thought I did, but I didn't. They have one of
1:47:46
Speaker 3: the biggest natural asphalt pits in the world.
1:47:50
Speaker 5: In the world.
1:47:51
Speaker 3: And it's actually called the Brea Asphalt Pit, right?
1:47:54
Speaker 5: Didn't some dinosaurs and stuff die there?
1:47:57
Speaker 3: They were in California, right? Or you can walk across
1:47:59
Speaker 3: this thing, right? You can. But it moves. But it's
1:48:04
Speaker 3: like a giant lake of pure asphalt. And it's the
1:48:07
Speaker 3: largest in the world. I don't understand how this works. Yeah,
1:48:10
Speaker 3: me either. I think it's like an oil thing that
1:48:13
Speaker 3: just kind of bubbles up to the top. Interesting.
1:48:15
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah.
1:48:16
Speaker 3: All right, let's take a little break. Coming back in
1:48:18
Speaker 3: a second, we'll have Brandon in here with sports. And,
1:48:20
Speaker 3: of course, I think we had a couple of college
1:48:21
Speaker 3: bowl games this week. Oh, it all kicks off, man.
1:48:24
Speaker 3: NFL's starting soon, so I'm sure we'll have a bunch
1:48:26
Speaker 3: on that. We'll do that next. Hey, how's it going?
1:48:34
Speaker 22: Hope everybody's having a fabulous Monday. You know, my credentials
1:48:37
Speaker 22: at the airport, issued by Homeland Security, federally mandated, are
1:48:41
Speaker 22: constantly changing every time I have to renew annually in
1:48:45
Speaker 22: the name of the Patriot Act. You know, there's a
1:48:47
Speaker 22: conspiracy theory you've probably heard that 9-11 was allowed in
1:48:51
Speaker 22: order just to get this kind of vault in Big
1:48:55
Speaker 22: Brother and the Patriot Act. And while I don't know
1:48:58
Speaker 22: anything about that, I know there ain't nowhere left to hide.
1:49:01
Speaker 8: Aloha.
1:49:06
Speaker 3: All right, welcome back to the Jim Culver Show. We're
1:49:08
Speaker 3: already at 104.1.
1:49:10
Speaker 8: I'm Jim.
1:49:10
Speaker 3: There's Deb.
1:49:10
Speaker 12: Hello.
1:49:11
Speaker 3: Jack is here as well. Let's do sports.
1:49:15
Speaker 2: It's time to get your game on. As the Jim
1:49:18
Speaker 2: Colbert Show brings you the man who brings the heat,
1:49:21
Speaker 2: the insight, and the takes you didn't even know you needed.
1:49:24
Speaker 2: From the biggest headlines to the stories flying under the radar,
1:49:27
Speaker 2: we've got you covered. So buckle up, because the sports
1:49:31
Speaker 2: world never sleeps.
1:49:32
Speaker 3: And neither does this guy.
1:49:33
Speaker 2: The most popular sports broadcaster on 96.9 The Game.
1:49:37
Speaker 8: You paid us to say that. Brandon Kravitz.
1:49:39
Speaker 3: All right, good laugh for Brandon Kravitz.
1:49:42
Speaker 8: There he is.
1:49:43
Speaker 3: B to the K is with us today. What's going on, buddy?
1:49:46
Speaker 3: What's up? What's good? What is good?
1:49:50
Speaker 15: Real radio family. Real radio. Having a great day. I
1:49:57
Speaker 15: went to the Orlando Valkyrie. I'm a big volleyball guy.
1:50:01
Speaker 15: I've become one the last couple of years.
1:50:03
Speaker 5: Couldn't have anything to do with uniforms.
1:50:04
Speaker 15: I went to the Orlando Valkyries coaches introductory press conference today.
1:50:13
Speaker 15: Francois Salvani, a nice Italian man, was introduced. Was that
1:50:18
Speaker 15: the Citrus Club? I don't know if you guys have
1:50:20
Speaker 15: ever been there.
1:50:24
Speaker 3: Whoa. That's swanky. It's been swanky for years, dude. That's
1:50:28
Speaker 3: been one of Orlando's little spots for quite a while, man. Yeah,
1:50:32
Speaker 3: I went up.
1:50:33
Speaker 15: It's in a parking garage, so you get the ticket.
1:50:36
Speaker 15: And then I went up. I didn't want to go
1:50:38
Speaker 15: up to the Valkyries people because I didn't want to
1:50:40
Speaker 15: embarrass myself. I went up to somebody that worked at
1:50:43
Speaker 15: the Citrus Club, and I said, can I get this validated?
1:50:47
Speaker 15: And she said, we don't do validations.
1:50:50
Speaker 3: Oh, wow. I mean, this place is nice.
1:50:54
Speaker 15: I'm sweating on my way to the car, not because
1:50:56
Speaker 15: it's hot, but because I'm worried of what the parking
1:50:59
Speaker 15: charge is going to be.
1:51:00
Speaker 3: It was only $ 8. $ 8 is very doable. Yeah, yeah,
1:51:04
Speaker 3: we can do that. I don't know. He is on AM. Hey,
1:51:09
Speaker 3: that bread service is $ 8, so you're good. Don't worry
1:51:12
Speaker 3: about it.
1:51:13
Speaker 15: If it was any more than $ 8, I would have
1:51:15
Speaker 15: started working there. That would be the worst job you
1:51:19
Speaker 15: ever had, by the way. Tips are good. All right, buddy, listen,
1:51:23
Speaker 15: we're on the cusp. Everybody can feel the vibes in
1:51:25
Speaker 15: the air. I had some college football action. Obviously, full
1:51:29
Speaker 15: slate's coming up soon.
1:51:30
Speaker 3: What's out there, man? What's going on? What's the word?
1:51:32
Speaker 3: What's the vibe?
1:51:34
Speaker 15: Well, Florida State played this weekend. The vibe is low.
1:51:38
Speaker 15: They won 34-17. If you looked at any FSU Twitter
1:51:44
Speaker 15: or just spoke to a Knowles fan, I don't know
1:51:46
Speaker 15: that you'd be able to tell that they're actually 1-0
1:51:48
Speaker 15: after their week zero game. against New Mexico state. They
1:51:52
Speaker 15: were 31 and a half point favorites in the game.
1:51:54
Speaker 15: And it was a struggle for them to win this game.
1:51:58
Speaker 3: I heard there was a possibility that if two plays
1:52:00
Speaker 3: went the other way, that it would have been real close. Yeah.
1:52:05
Speaker 3: Big time.
1:52:05
Speaker 15: The New Mexico state down 10 had a trick play
1:52:10
Speaker 15: that would have put them in striking. It was a
1:52:13
Speaker 15: wide receiver dropped a touchdown pass. The guy was by himself.
1:52:17
Speaker 15: in the end zone and just fell to his butt,
1:52:20
Speaker 15: dropped the ball. But it would have been a much
1:52:23
Speaker 15: closer game than it was. And it felt like that.
1:52:25
Speaker 15: It was a 10-point game late into the fourth quarter.
1:52:28
Speaker 15: It wasn't until the very end FSU pulled away. And
1:52:31
Speaker 15: they have two really tough games coming up after this.
1:52:34
Speaker 15: So this was supposed to be the stomp on your opponent,
1:52:38
Speaker 15: feel good about yourself. Homecoming game.
1:52:40
Speaker 17: Yeah.
1:52:41
Speaker 15: Yeah, even if you were just like tricking yourself into
1:52:44
Speaker 15: a reality that didn't exist, at least you felt good.
1:52:47
Speaker 15: But now FSU fans are going into a game. This
1:52:50
Speaker 15: will be on Monday night against SMU, who's a top
1:52:53
Speaker 15: 20 team in the country. They do get to play
1:52:56
Speaker 15: at home, but this was an uninspired group. And for
1:53:01
Speaker 15: them to play that way with that lack of juice
1:53:04
Speaker 15: after the season that this team had last year was,
1:53:07
Speaker 15: It's troubling and it speaks very poorly to the coach
1:53:10
Speaker 15: who most knows fans want fired. But the, the silver
1:53:15
Speaker 15: lining I would put in this is that it it's
1:53:19
Speaker 15: like this in every sport.
1:53:21
Speaker 3: It's like this in football. It's like this in the NFL.
1:53:23
Speaker 15: You're going to have a team in the NFL, even
1:53:26
Speaker 15: though we know, we know a lot more about the pros.
1:53:28
Speaker 15: You'll have a team that looks really good. That turns
1:53:30
Speaker 15: out to not be that good. Like the Colts last year,
1:53:33
Speaker 15: they had us hoodwinked for like a month, but they
1:53:35
Speaker 15: weren't actually that good. Florida State did this last year
1:53:39
Speaker 15: in the opposite direction, if you remember. Last year, they
1:53:43
Speaker 15: beat Alabama. Alabama was supposed to be really good, and
1:53:46
Speaker 15: they turned out to be good. They were in the
1:53:48
Speaker 15: college football playoff last year. They lost to Florida State,
1:53:50
Speaker 15: and FSU looked dominant in that game.
1:53:53
Speaker 3: And guess what? That's not who they really were. The
1:53:56
Speaker 3: calendar kept moving.
1:53:58
Speaker 15: So that would be my bit of grace to Florida
1:54:02
Speaker 15: State fans is, yeah, your team looked lifeless and listless,
1:54:05
Speaker 15: and it took way too much effort to beat New
1:54:08
Speaker 15: Mexico State.
1:54:09
Speaker 3: But maybe that's not.
1:54:11
Speaker 15: Who you're... Well, yeah, right. Maybe that's not who you
1:54:15
Speaker 15: really are. Maybe you're a lot better than that. We'll
1:54:18
Speaker 15: find out on Monday.
1:54:19
Speaker 3: Yeah, for sure. We won't. What else is out there, buddy?
1:54:24
Speaker 15: We'll have two other or we'll have UCF plays Bethune-Cookman.
1:54:29
Speaker 15: That's a rollover upon it. They're favored by 40. But
1:54:33
Speaker 15: would you get a good idea of at least what
1:54:36
Speaker 15: the UCF has a new quarterback in Alonzo Barnett, who
1:54:39
Speaker 15: they brought in from James Madison? This is a guy
1:54:41
Speaker 15: that should be able to elevate the program to be
1:54:44
Speaker 15: better than they've been the last couple of years. It's
1:54:46
Speaker 15: been a struggle since UCF has entered the Big 12.
1:54:49
Speaker 15: This is year two of Scott Frost's return. So you
1:54:53
Speaker 15: would like to see things start to turn in the
1:54:55
Speaker 15: right direction. We're not going to get a great idea.
1:54:58
Speaker 15: of what that is on Thursday. But if they struggle,
1:55:00
Speaker 15: we'll have a similar conversation.
1:55:02
Speaker 8: Let's not dismiss it.
1:55:02
Speaker 3: Do you like them by 42 and a half? I do.
1:55:08
Speaker 15: I haven't bet it, but I would lay the points
1:55:11
Speaker 15: with UCF. They've done a really good job against the
1:55:13
Speaker 15: patsy opponents. Their issue is not skill position players. When
1:55:18
Speaker 15: you go up against Leicester competition, those skill position players
1:55:21
Speaker 15: can really shine. And weak offensive and defensive lines, flawed
1:55:26
Speaker 15: lines are not.
1:55:29
Speaker 15: They're not exposed against lesser competition. When you start to
1:55:33
Speaker 15: go up against teams that spend as much money as
1:55:36
Speaker 15: you and the portal and all of that, they, those
1:55:39
Speaker 15: teams that spend a lot tend to build first with
1:55:41
Speaker 15: the offensive and defensive lines. If you get dominated in
1:55:44
Speaker 15: the trenches, it's really hard to win. That's not a
1:55:47
Speaker 15: problem against the Bethune Cookmans of the world. So I
1:55:49
Speaker 15: would lay it with UCF. And then you have Florida
1:55:52
Speaker 15: playing FAU over the weekend. That'll be at the swamp.
1:55:54
Speaker 15: That should be another rollover. And Miami takes the field
1:55:58
Speaker 15: after making it to the national championship last year. They'll
1:56:01
Speaker 15: play Stanford on Friday night.
1:56:02
Speaker 3: I think that game could be interesting. I would take
1:56:04
Speaker 3: Stanford in the points.
1:56:06
Speaker 15: And we do have an update, by the way, on,
1:56:10
Speaker 15: and I'm just a hard pivot in a different direction.
1:56:13
Speaker 3: Don't worry about that. That's fine. We got breaking news
1:56:16
Speaker 3: in the soccer world.
1:56:17
Speaker 15: The Orlando pride have parted ways with Seb Hines, their
1:56:22
Speaker 15: head coach since 2022 and led them to a championship
1:56:26
Speaker 15: a couple of years ago, the pride are struggling. They're
1:56:31
Speaker 15: in 12th place out of 16 NWSL teams right now.
1:56:35
Speaker 15: I don't know what's going on there. A lot of
1:56:37
Speaker 15: folks are blaming the front office. So you'll have a
1:56:40
Speaker 15: new GM now. You'll also have a new head coach.
1:56:43
Speaker 15: There's a press conference tomorrow from the acting general manager.
1:56:48
Speaker 15: And they'll give you a better idea of what the
1:56:50
Speaker 15: direction is moving forward. But we just got that like
1:56:52
Speaker 15: 10 minutes ago.
1:56:52
Speaker 3: They have a bit of a historic run under this guy, right?
1:56:55
Speaker 3: Wasn't there two seasons in a row where they lost
1:56:58
Speaker 3: one match in two or three seasons or something?
1:57:00
Speaker 11: Yeah, and they won the championship two seasons ago. But
1:57:03
Speaker 11: they also had their GM, we interview her. She was
1:57:06
Speaker 11: a complete badass. uh, I mean, smuggling the female soccer
1:57:10
Speaker 11: team out of Afghanistan and stuff.
1:57:12
Speaker 3: Oh yeah.
1:57:13
Speaker 11: And her day job, she was GM of a Orlando pride.
1:57:17
Speaker 11: By day it's Argo by night. It's, but yeah, she left.
1:57:21
Speaker 11: And so, you know, that's been turned over. I got,
1:57:24
Speaker 11: I went to see a pride match a couple of
1:57:25
Speaker 11: weeks ago. Marta's injured. Barbara Banda was out at the
1:57:29
Speaker 11: time and they were just lifeless. You know, they just
1:57:33
Speaker 11: couldn't move the ball. So, I mean, their two big
1:57:36
Speaker 11: stars being hurt didn't help. I know Banda came back, scored,
1:57:40
Speaker 11: but they only tied their last match. So Seb is
1:57:44
Speaker 11: a great guy. He used to play for Orlando City.
1:57:46
Speaker 3: We've interviewed him here, and it's sad to see him go.
1:57:51
Speaker 3: Sometimes you've got to make a change like that, right?
1:57:53
Speaker 3: Maybe the team just kind of loses the locker room,
1:57:56
Speaker 3: for lack of a better word. Yeah, somebody has to
1:57:59
Speaker 3: take the fall.
1:57:59
Speaker 15: I think this is more of a scapegoat situation than
1:58:02
Speaker 15: anything else because it seems like the roster has not
1:58:04
Speaker 15: been upkept the way that you would like after the
1:58:08
Speaker 15: dominant years that they had. But somebody has to take
1:58:12
Speaker 15: the fall. Usually it's the head coach.
1:58:14
Speaker 3: Yeah. And then you figure the rest out from there.
1:58:16
Speaker 3: But yeah, I mean. We know we live in, we
1:58:20
Speaker 3: live in the media world. We certainly know.
1:58:22
Speaker 15: What change looks like change a little bit.
1:58:24
Speaker 10: Yeah.
1:58:25
Speaker 15: Um, and sometimes I think it's good. I think it's
1:58:27
Speaker 15: good in media. I think it's good in coaching. It's
1:58:30
Speaker 15: abrupt change can shock the system. And as long as
1:58:32
Speaker 15: you hire the right person next, then it can be
1:58:36
Speaker 15: a positive for everybody.
1:58:37
Speaker 3: NFL news, uh, any word out there, anything happening?
1:58:41
Speaker 8: Yeah.
1:58:42
Speaker 16: A lot.
1:58:43
Speaker 3: Uh, Aaron Donald just signed. with the LA Rams. He
1:58:47
Speaker 3: had been retired.
1:58:51
Speaker 15: They are working on etching it into the Lombardi trophy
1:58:54
Speaker 15: right now. I'm told with the way this roster is
1:58:56
Speaker 15: looking in the free agency era, I think it's important
1:59:00
Speaker 15: to couch it like that. Because if you go back
1:59:02
Speaker 15: to the Cowboys of the early nineties, if you go
1:59:05
Speaker 15: back to the Steelers of the seventies or the 49ers
1:59:07
Speaker 15: in the eighties, when free agency wasn't a thing, you
1:59:10
Speaker 15: could build up these gargantuan talented rosters and And just
1:59:16
Speaker 15: park them for a few years until everybody aged out.
1:59:19
Speaker 15: You can't do that in the NFL now. So in
1:59:21
Speaker 15: this era, this is as talented a roster as we
1:59:24
Speaker 15: have ever seen. You have the reigning NFL MVP at
1:59:27
Speaker 15: quarterback to stud wide receivers. They've got a good offensive line.
1:59:31
Speaker 15: I would say it's top 10 in the NFL. And
1:59:33
Speaker 15: they have a guy who just set the sack record
1:59:36
Speaker 15: on defense and miles Garrett. an elite defensive back they
1:59:39
Speaker 15: got from the Chiefs and Trent McDuffie, and then they
1:59:43
Speaker 15: plucked Aaron Donald out of retirement. And while some people
1:59:46
Speaker 15: are going to look and say, okay, this is a
1:59:48
Speaker 15: 35-year-old who hasn't played in a few years, father times undefeated,
1:59:53
Speaker 15: that is the case for most people. Aaron Donald is
1:59:56
Speaker 15: a physical freak. This guy, I promise you, is in
2:00:01
Speaker 15: tip-top condition. He is probably in the. 00001 percentile in
2:00:05
Speaker 15: terms of conditioned people.
2:00:10
Speaker 3: Walking planet earth. He'll be fine.
2:00:13
Speaker 15: Now they, because of his age, they will use him
2:00:15
Speaker 15: in a part-time capacity, which is even scarier because they're
2:00:19
Speaker 15: not going to need him all the time. So I
2:00:22
Speaker 15: think they'll bring him in situationally when it, when they
2:00:24
Speaker 15: need them the most and he'll be fresh as a
2:00:26
Speaker 15: Daisy and every NFL team that goes up against them
2:00:29
Speaker 15: should be terrified that they have to worry about Aaron
2:00:32
Speaker 15: Donald and miles Garrett. These offensive coordinators spend their week
2:00:37
Speaker 15: worrying worried about one of those guys. Now you've, you've
2:00:40
Speaker 15: got two of them. It's the first time in the
2:00:43
Speaker 15: history of the NFL that you have two reigning defensive
2:00:45
Speaker 15: player of the years on the same team. It's never
2:00:49
Speaker 15: happened before. And the Rams have that. So it's pretty disgusting.
2:00:53
Speaker 15: It's the NFL. So it's, It's still hard to win.
2:00:57
Speaker 15: I would not go. I was joking about etching their
2:01:00
Speaker 15: name into the Lombardi. You still have to stay healthy.
2:01:03
Speaker 15: You still have to not have drop-off from your star players.
2:01:07
Speaker 15: Puka Nakua was in rehab a couple of months ago. So, look,
2:01:10
Speaker 15: I mean, things happen, but they're loaded. When are the
2:01:14
Speaker 15: first games?
2:01:15
Speaker 3: Next Wednesday. Next Wednesday or Thursday? Wednesday. It's the first
2:01:18
Speaker 3: time they're playing on Wednesday.
2:01:20
Speaker 8: Right.
2:01:21
Speaker 3: And are you guys aware of why this is happening?
2:01:23
Speaker 3: I'm not. No, I thought I thought both the games
2:01:26
Speaker 3: were on Thursday for some reason. It's because of Melbourne, Australia, Mike. Oh, yeah,
2:01:30
Speaker 3: that's right.
2:01:32
Speaker 15: The what the NFL started to institute was a Friday game.
2:01:37
Speaker 15: And so the opening game. for as long as I
2:01:40
Speaker 15: can remember has been Thursday. And then lately they've added
2:01:43
Speaker 15: a Friday. Well, because Friday's game is in Australia, it's
2:01:46
Speaker 15: Friday for them. It's Thursday for us. They move the
2:01:49
Speaker 15: Thursday game to Wednesday. So it'll be Wednesday, Thursday, and
2:01:53
Speaker 15: then you'll have a full slate on Sunday.
2:01:56
Speaker 16: Wow.
2:01:56
Speaker 15: And if I can, before you cut me loose, promote
2:01:59
Speaker 15: my brand new show. that is debuting on Saturday, September
2:02:05
Speaker 15: 12th from nine to 10 AM. I finally convinced the
2:02:09
Speaker 15: overlords to give me a bedding show and I got it.
2:02:13
Speaker 10: Yeah.
2:02:14
Speaker 15: Florida line is going to debut on Saturday, September 12th
2:02:19
Speaker 15: from nine to 10 AM. I will break down along
2:02:22
Speaker 15: with Aaron Jacobson from the sports station in Tampa and
2:02:26
Speaker 15: We'll break down all the college football games going on
2:02:28
Speaker 15: inside the state, all the NFL games, and then just
2:02:31
Speaker 15: the biggest games of the weekend. I'll tell you who
2:02:34
Speaker 15: I'm betting on, why I'm betting on them, process stuff,
2:02:37
Speaker 15: all of that. I cannot wait to get after it
2:02:39
Speaker 15: because you know how much I love talking.
2:02:41
Speaker 3: About this stuff. Oh, yeah, yeah, man, 100%. Oh, now
2:02:42
Speaker 3: I know what I'll be listening to Saturday mornings. All right, buddy,
2:02:46
Speaker 3: it's always good seeing you, man. Great job today, as always.
2:02:49
Speaker 3: Give it up good and loud for Mr. Brandon Kravitz.
2:02:50
Speaker 3: There he is. Three until six every day, 96.9 The
2:02:55
Speaker 3: Game with his buddy Mike Bianchi. They are the voice
2:02:58
Speaker 3: of sports in Orlando. Buddy, we'll see you next week
2:02:59
Speaker 3: for sure. Have a good week. Later. You are the man.
2:03:03
Speaker 3: All right. 407-916-1041. Text us 77031. Back in a sec
2:03:06
Speaker 3: with Ray Trinley from TK Law.
2:03:14
Speaker 9: I've been warning about the dangers of these cameras for
2:03:16
Speaker 9: a long time.
2:03:18
Speaker 3: My trail cam got hacked a while back. Now my
2:03:21
Speaker 3: favorite hunting spot has a damn near a two lane
2:03:24
Speaker 3: road going to it. Haven't seen a deer in years.
2:03:30
Speaker 1: Aren't there cameras at every stoplight intersection? You look up there,
2:03:36
Speaker 1: there's cameras up every direction and the attorneys use those
2:03:42
Speaker 1: cameras to be able to determine who's at fault in
2:03:46
Speaker 1: an accident. Are we concerned about those as well?
2:03:52
Speaker 16: What's going on? And no, Jimmy, your home ain't even safe.
2:03:56
Speaker 16: Old Snowden, remember, he leaked all that stuff. They're in
2:04:01
Speaker 16: our phone cameras. They're in your TV camera. They're in
2:04:05
Speaker 16: every camera, any camera, any way that.
2:04:09
Speaker 3: Has a two-way communication. They're reading.
2:04:12
Speaker 16: They're listening. They're hearing. They've been doing it. Snowden leaked it,
2:04:16
Speaker 16: ran away, and you think that stopped? No, now they're
2:04:20
Speaker 16: just putting it in your face.
2:04:23
Speaker 12: Hold on, I've got to put on my aluminum foil
2:04:25
Speaker 12: hat because I don't give.
2:04:27
Speaker 14: A crap who sees what I'm doing.
2:04:29
Speaker 3: It doesn't matter to me at all. I'm not doing
2:04:32
Speaker 3: anything wrong.
2:04:34
Speaker 18: But if a kid goes missing like that guy.
2:04:36
Speaker 3: Said or somebody's murdered like that or a car stolen,
2:04:42
Speaker 3: guess what?
2:04:43
Speaker 14: They can find it quicker and find the people that
2:04:45
Speaker 14: did it.
2:04:45
Speaker 3: It makes it safer. There's, like, no gray area. Like,
2:04:49
Speaker 3: it just seems to be one or the other. I mean,
2:04:51
Speaker 3: Deb said it the best, I mean, years ago. She
2:04:53
Speaker 3: was watching an interview, and it was with Mark Zuckerberg,
2:04:56
Speaker 3: you know, obviously the king of meta. And she looked
2:04:59
Speaker 3: at his camera, and he's got a piece of tape
2:05:00
Speaker 3: covering his own camera. That's the guy who runs the
2:05:03
Speaker 3: joint is covering his own camera because he's terrified of
2:05:07
Speaker 3: being spied on. You would think if any guy in
2:05:09
Speaker 3: the world would be protected from his own stuff turning
2:05:12
Speaker 3: on him, it would be that guy. And then when Deb's... Deb,
2:05:16
Speaker 3: it's like fast to the tape to the camera, dude.
2:05:19
Speaker 3: You know it.
2:05:19
Speaker 8: Yeah, yeah.
2:05:20
Speaker 3: All right. Welcome back. I'm Jim. There's Deb.
2:05:22
Speaker 1: Hello.
2:05:22
Speaker 8: Jack.
2:05:22
Speaker 7: Yep.
2:05:23
Speaker 3: And, of course, every Monday he drops by around this
2:05:25
Speaker 3: time to talk about things legal. Of course, we're talking
2:05:28
Speaker 3: about our good friend, Mr. Ray Trendley.
2:05:30
Speaker 8: Yay!
2:05:32
Speaker 3: That's TKLaw1FirmForLife. com. Office is right there in Altamont and D-Land, Florida.
2:05:38
Speaker 3: Have you been to Deland lately? Do you ever go
2:05:40
Speaker 3: to the office very often? I was there last week. Yeah,
2:05:42
Speaker 3: let me give you a heads up. Have you eaten
2:05:43
Speaker 3: in downtown Deland lately?
2:05:46
Speaker 17: Yeah, I like to pick a local joint and go
2:05:49
Speaker 17: check it out and meet the owners.
2:05:51
Speaker 3: Yeah, let me give you a heads up. Have you
2:05:52
Speaker 3: been to Hundreds and Gatherers yet? I don't believe so. Actually,
2:05:56
Speaker 3: I think it was closed last time I was there.
2:05:57
Speaker 14: Oh, really?
2:05:58
Speaker 8: Yeah.
2:05:58
Speaker 3: So we went down there for this thing on Saturday,
2:06:00
Speaker 3: this speakeasy, this serial killer speakeasy thing. And of course,
2:06:03
Speaker 3: Deland's a killer little town. If you haven't been down there,
2:06:05
Speaker 3: another one of these great little small towns with Tons
2:06:08
Speaker 3: of great drinking and eating and all kinds of cool
2:06:10
Speaker 3: stuff to shopping and stuff like that. And we went
2:06:12
Speaker 3: to this place called Hunters and Gatherers, which is like
2:06:16
Speaker 3: a little shotgun space, Jack. Yeah. Like a little space
2:06:19
Speaker 3: from back in the 50s where they took it, what
2:06:22
Speaker 3: looked to be like a diner at one point, or
2:06:24
Speaker 3: maybe even just a little store. And they made a
2:06:26
Speaker 3: little bar up front. It's got like four seats. And
2:06:28
Speaker 3: then ran it all the way to the back. And
2:06:30
Speaker 3: I'm telling you, man, it was really good. We enjoyed it.
2:06:34
Speaker 3: Great service, great food, and the prices were right as well.
2:06:36
Speaker 3: A lunch place, a dinner place? A dinner place. Yeah,
2:06:39
Speaker 3: really good. Good inventive dishes. We loved it. It was nice.
2:06:41
Speaker 3: It's literally right across the street from the office. Is
2:06:43
Speaker 3: it really? So, come on. Check out my office.
2:06:47
Speaker 17: We'll do some state planning and then we'll go out
2:06:48
Speaker 17: for lunch or dinner.
2:06:50
Speaker 8: Of course.
2:06:51
Speaker 3: Have a good meal. Of course, that's what you do, right?
2:06:53
Speaker 3: That's what I like to do. Ray joins us every
2:06:55
Speaker 3: Monday around this time. He brings in usually a little
2:06:57
Speaker 3: something to talk about, something that maybe will pique your
2:07:00
Speaker 3: interest in the world of legality and law. And we
2:07:03
Speaker 3: discuss it kind of. Spread some information around. What you
2:07:06
Speaker 3: got for us this week? Well, I'm a little frustrated
2:07:08
Speaker 3: because I came in. I was going to put tape
2:07:10
Speaker 3: over my webcam here, but you guys are all spying
2:07:13
Speaker 3: on me on YouTube. Before we go into the story,
2:07:17
Speaker 3: I do think that there's some– you said there's no
2:07:21
Speaker 3: middle ground or no gray area. I think where people
2:07:24
Speaker 3: are coming up with this isn't that the idea is
2:07:27
Speaker 3: inherently right or the idea is inherently wrong. I think
2:07:31
Speaker 3: the problem is people don't feel like they have a say.
2:07:34
Speaker 3: And I think you guys hit the nail on the
2:07:37
Speaker 3: head with the idea that normally in the political system,
2:07:41
Speaker 3: you get both sides to debate the topic. And if
2:07:45
Speaker 3: you can get a consensus or a majority, then you
2:07:47
Speaker 3: move forward with it. And I think the problem is
2:07:50
Speaker 3: they're using the administrative rulemaking power to now legislate over
2:07:56
Speaker 3: what our privacy rights are. And I think that's where
2:07:59
Speaker 3: the people who have a fundamental problem with it are
2:08:03
Speaker 3: relying and where they've got a problem. And I think,
2:08:07
Speaker 3: you know, the people who are okay with it, I
2:08:09
Speaker 3: think it's the same thing, right? They also want to
2:08:13
Speaker 3: say in the decision-making process, and while they maybe don't
2:08:16
Speaker 3: feel like their rights have been violated or They haven't
2:08:19
Speaker 3: been respected. Maybe their opinion hasn't been respected. That's right.
2:08:23
Speaker 17: And I think that's where both sides are so far
2:08:25
Speaker 17: apart is because nobody's actually had a say in this.
2:08:28
Speaker 3: Sure, yeah.
2:08:30
Speaker 17: And I think you guys also hit the nail on
2:08:31
Speaker 17: the head. Good for people to speak up and speak
2:08:35
Speaker 17: out on it, and it looks like they're changing some
2:08:37
Speaker 17: of these policies and– getting rid of these cameras. And
2:08:40
Speaker 17: so who knows what the future holds.
2:08:43
Speaker 3: Yeah. But let me ask, is this a thing where
2:08:45
Speaker 3: flock themselves, the country or the company who makes the cameras?
2:08:48
Speaker 3: I mean, of course, flock isn't the only company that
2:08:50
Speaker 3: can make a camera of this nature. I mean, is
2:08:52
Speaker 3: there any legal move for them? Because if these people
2:08:55
Speaker 3: have already, if the counties have already signed deals with flock,
2:08:59
Speaker 3: And then all of a sudden people started going, okay, well,
2:09:01
Speaker 3: we don't want these things. Then the county goes, hey, look,
2:09:02
Speaker 3: we'd love to continue buying these things we agreed to buy.
2:09:05
Speaker 3: But as you can see, the constituents of this county
2:09:08
Speaker 3: do not want these around. So unfortunately, we have to
2:09:10
Speaker 3: cancel this deal. Is that a scenario where they're going
2:09:13
Speaker 3: to have to pay some legal ramifications for that?
2:09:15
Speaker 17: Yeah, I mean, the counties might still have to pay
2:09:17
Speaker 17: out on these contracts even though these cameras aren't.
2:09:19
Speaker 3: Aren't being posted up and being used. And that's not
2:09:21
Speaker 3: only for the hardware, that's also for the software and
2:09:23
Speaker 3: the monitoring and the collecting of the data, which is also,
2:09:26
Speaker 3: that's a monthly expense. Because if you think to yourself, well,
2:09:28
Speaker 3: I'll just buy the camera, maybe they're a thousand bucks
2:09:30
Speaker 3: a piece, you can say to yourself, well, I mean,
2:09:33
Speaker 3: that's a good expenditure of my tax money. But not
2:09:36
Speaker 3: knowing that each camera is like $ 100 a month on
2:09:38
Speaker 3: top of that to maintain, I can't imagine it's even
2:09:41
Speaker 3: that cheap. No, I imagine you're right.
2:09:42
Speaker 17: I imagine that the servicing and the costs on the
2:09:45
Speaker 17: back end are much more than the technology on the
2:09:47
Speaker 17: front end.
2:09:48
Speaker 1: Sure, yeah.
2:09:49
Speaker 17: Um, yeah, I mean, I think there's all kinds of problems.
2:09:51
Speaker 17: And so, you know, talk to your local politicians, figure
2:09:55
Speaker 17: out who is behind some of this stuff and maybe
2:09:57
Speaker 17: you don't keep them down anymore.
2:09:58
Speaker 3: And again, I mean, like we've all said, I think
2:10:00
Speaker 3: these are things that could have been kind of panned
2:10:01
Speaker 3: out with legislation beforehand to roll out to the voters
2:10:04
Speaker 3: and go, guys, this is what we're thinking here. We
2:10:07
Speaker 3: have this piece of technology that can really make our
2:10:09
Speaker 3: community safer. Here are some of the drawbacks and here's
2:10:12
Speaker 3: what we're going to do to make sure that that
2:10:14
Speaker 3: doesn't happen to you. As we move forward, trying to
2:10:16
Speaker 3: keep these communities nice and safe and find these bad
2:10:19
Speaker 3: people who are doing bad things, maybe it would have
2:10:21
Speaker 3: been approached and maybe even accepted a little differently. Yeah, yeah.
2:10:24
Speaker 3: I think give the people a say and let them
2:10:26
Speaker 3: be a part of the decision-making process. So I 100% agree. Yeah,
2:10:28
Speaker 3: what you got for us?
2:10:29
Speaker 17: So this is actually one that came out just recently.
2:10:32
Speaker 17: And I don't know if you guys saw the story
2:10:35
Speaker 17: at a Kissimmee that there was a car crash and
2:10:39
Speaker 17: the two people in the car were brought to the hospital.
2:10:43
Speaker 17: And during questioning with law enforcement, there was an ice hold,
2:10:46
Speaker 17: which if you guys aren't familiar, anytime somebody is suspected
2:10:52
Speaker 17: to be here illegally or they've overstayed a visa or
2:10:56
Speaker 17: something like that, ICE can put a detention hold with
2:10:58
Speaker 17: local law enforcement. And basically what the agreement is, is
2:11:03
Speaker 17: that local law enforcement will hold the person or detain
2:11:05
Speaker 17: them until ICE can get there. And once ICE gets there,
2:11:08
Speaker 17: they take them under their custody and and they deal
2:11:11
Speaker 17: with it through the administrative immigration system.
2:11:15
Speaker 3: Okay, let me ask you a quick question before we go.
2:11:18
Speaker 3: So let's say this happened in Kissimmee, right? In Kissimmee.
2:11:20
Speaker 3: So as Kissimmee takes these people into custody and detains them,
2:11:24
Speaker 3: do they find out if they're actually illegal? Do they
2:11:27
Speaker 3: already know that they're here illegally before they take them in?
2:11:30
Speaker 17: So they have their own system so that you can
2:11:33
Speaker 17: potentially have somebody who already has a warrant out for
2:11:36
Speaker 17: their arrest or something like that, and it would trigger–
2:11:39
Speaker 17: But they can't– if they reasonably suspect somebody who is
2:11:42
Speaker 17: here illegally, they can detain somebody, notify ICE, and if
2:11:46
Speaker 17: ICE says, yeah, hold them, they'll hold them.
2:11:48
Speaker 3: Okay. And so this was.
2:11:50
Speaker 17: A 19-year-old and her 39-year-old mother were arrested after deputies
2:11:56
Speaker 17: discovered that there was an ICE hold on one of
2:11:58
Speaker 17: the women. I'm not sure which one it was.
2:12:01
Speaker 3: Um, was this targeted or did they just get pulled
2:12:02
Speaker 3: over in traffic and then found out they were involved
2:12:05
Speaker 3: in an auto accident?
2:12:06
Speaker 17: They were at the hospital and law enforcement was investigating
2:12:09
Speaker 17: the crash.
2:12:10
Speaker 8: Got it.
2:12:10
Speaker 3: Okay. That's when this came up.
2:12:12
Speaker 17: Um, and, and so, you know, one of the things
2:12:14
Speaker 17: I thought was interesting about this, because when I read
2:12:17
Speaker 17: this story, I said to myself, and it's, it's been
2:12:19
Speaker 17: a little while since I was in immigration courtroom. Um,
2:12:22
Speaker 17: but I said, you know, there used to be like
2:12:24
Speaker 17: these sanctuary sites where there were certain places where, um, uh,
2:12:29
Speaker 17: whether it was Homeland Security or Customs or ICE now,
2:12:33
Speaker 17: weren't able to investigate immigration issues. And so I did
2:12:39
Speaker 17: some research. And this is why I thought, oh, this
2:12:40
Speaker 17: would be an interesting story. In January of 2025, Department
2:12:45
Speaker 17: of Homeland Security rescinded the prior federal guidance that restricted
2:12:48
Speaker 17: immigration enforcement of actions near designated protected areas, including hospitals, schools, churches,
2:12:53
Speaker 17: or other similar locations.
2:12:55
Speaker 3: They rescinded that, which means they kind of took that away,
2:12:57
Speaker 3: so now they were completely cool to go in and
2:12:59
Speaker 3: all those places you just listed to go in and
2:13:01
Speaker 3: find people who are here illegally. Correct.
2:13:03
Speaker 17: So that means that, you know, conceptually speaking, there aren't
2:13:07
Speaker 17: these sanctuary sites. Remember we talked about the sanctuary cities
2:13:10
Speaker 17: a couple years ago?
2:13:11
Speaker 3: Yeah. Completely revoked that.
2:13:13
Speaker 17: So believe it or not, as the law stands today,
2:13:18
Speaker 17: Immigration Customs Enforcement can go to your hospital room, ask
2:13:25
Speaker 17: you some questions, detain you and put you on a
2:13:28
Speaker 17: hold until an immigration court gets a hold of you.
2:13:32
Speaker 17: And and so, you know, there's nothing that the hospital
2:13:37
Speaker 17: staff can do. You know, as long as you get
2:13:39
Speaker 17: clear to go home, there's nothing they can do to stop.
2:13:43
Speaker 3: So let me ask that. Let's say the person in
2:13:45
Speaker 3: this particular case or their injuries. uh, something that needed
2:13:49
Speaker 3: to be monitored. Like, I mean, if they, if they have,
2:13:51
Speaker 3: if they're in the hospital and they're like, look, you know,
2:13:53
Speaker 3: we need to keep an eye on this person. They,
2:13:55
Speaker 3: they ruptured their spleen or whatever the case may be.
2:13:57
Speaker 8: Sure.
2:13:57
Speaker 3: Do they just put a guard outside of there? And K,
2:14:00
Speaker 3: I mean, you know, how does that go?
2:14:01
Speaker 17: I mean, yeah, conceptually, I suppose that they have, um,
2:14:05
Speaker 17: they have the authority to detain people. So I suppose
2:14:08
Speaker 17: that that would be a solution that they could employ
2:14:10
Speaker 17: because obviously the person is not going to be leaving
2:14:12
Speaker 17: the hospital with a, you know.
2:14:14
Speaker 3: A ruptured organ.
2:14:15
Speaker 20: Yeah.
2:14:15
Speaker 9: Yeah.
2:14:15
Speaker 17: Um, and so, um, You know, it's very interesting to
2:14:19
Speaker 17: me because it was never that way.
2:14:21
Speaker 1: Right.
2:14:22
Speaker 17: And I don't really talk a lot about my immigration experience.
2:14:26
Speaker 17: I went to one immigration hearing as a very young lawyer.
2:14:29
Speaker 17: And we represented this young lady who had come over
2:14:36
Speaker 17: from Mexico, had been deported. She came over from Mexico
2:14:38
Speaker 17: when she was a child, like six years old, had
2:14:40
Speaker 17: been deported, came back to America, married a United States
2:14:45
Speaker 17: Army colonel. So somebody very well respected in the military.
2:14:49
Speaker 17: Had three children with this person. While this person was
2:14:52
Speaker 17: being deployed, got into like a fender bed or rear
2:14:55
Speaker 17: end accident. They found out that she did not have
2:14:58
Speaker 17: legal status. Initiated deportation proceedings against her. And because we
2:15:03
Speaker 17: have a rule that once you get deported once, sorry,
2:15:06
Speaker 17: there's no asylum. There's no options for you. They made
2:15:10
Speaker 17: the decision to deport her again while she had three
2:15:13
Speaker 17: minor children in America. With a United States Army colonel
2:15:17
Speaker 17: as her husband. And I thought, this is the most
2:15:20
Speaker 17: backwards legal system I've ever seen.
2:15:23
Speaker 3: Yeah.
2:15:24
Speaker 17: And I'm not saying that I don't support the law.
2:15:26
Speaker 17: It's just something that I had a really hard time
2:15:28
Speaker 17: adjusting to. Yeah. And there's legal and logical reasons for
2:15:34
Speaker 17: the law to exist. But, man, I had a really
2:15:37
Speaker 17: hard time seeing it.
2:15:37
Speaker 3: At that moment. Right, right, right. What became of that?
2:15:40
Speaker 3: Do you know? She ended up being deported. He retired
2:15:43
Speaker 3: from the United States Army. And they moved to Mexico?
2:15:46
Speaker 3: Moved to Mexico. To be with his family.
2:15:47
Speaker 17: I think last I heard, which was probably now 10
2:15:51
Speaker 17: years ago, last I heard, I think they were living
2:15:53
Speaker 17: in El Salvador.
2:15:54
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah. So they deported her. She came back in
2:15:56
Speaker 3: illegally again? So she was deported when she was like six. Okay.
2:16:00
Speaker 3: So her parents brought her back. Got it. She went
2:16:04
Speaker 3: to high school in Florida. Yeah. She got a job.
2:16:08
Speaker 3: She had a whole life as an adult. Was a
2:16:10
Speaker 3: productive citizen. For like 20-something years. Wow, yeah, yeah, yeah.
2:16:14
Speaker 3: And that's happened a number of times in the military.
2:16:16
Speaker 3: Deb and I were talking about this yesterday. Wasn't there
2:16:18
Speaker 3: a case just last week where a guy had just
2:16:20
Speaker 3: come home from– what was it, Debra? He had just
2:16:23
Speaker 3: come home.
2:16:23
Speaker 4: You're thinking of the father who was waiting for his
2:16:26
Speaker 4: son to get off the USS Abraham Lincoln when he
2:16:29
Speaker 4: was stopped in a traffic stop in the Keys and
2:16:32
Speaker 4: held in ICE detention.
2:16:34
Speaker 5: They finally did release him, though.
2:16:36
Speaker 3: But this is I mean, there have been a number
2:16:38
Speaker 3: of military families that have dealt with this, where they
2:16:40
Speaker 3: married someone that was here illegally and then they wound
2:16:42
Speaker 3: up deporting them regardless. I mean, no matter what their
2:16:44
Speaker 3: status was with the U.S. military or any of that stuff.
2:16:46
Speaker 3: And it's hard. And I think. you know, when you
2:16:49
Speaker 3: think that being a spouse of a military, uh, you know,
2:16:52
Speaker 3: would kind of give you some kind of like heads up,
2:16:54
Speaker 3: like it almost be like an incentive, like to do that.
2:16:57
Speaker 3: If you're, you know, if your spouse is here illegally
2:17:00
Speaker 3: and your person is in the U S military for
2:17:02
Speaker 3: more than six to 10 years, whatever.
2:17:03
Speaker 5: It is, not even the military is set, even as
2:17:05
Speaker 5: a soldier that doesn't protect you.
2:17:07
Speaker 3: If you don't have status.
2:17:08
Speaker 5: Yeah.
2:17:09
Speaker 17: So it's one of those things, you know, I agree.
2:17:11
Speaker 17: I think that somebody should be able to change that
2:17:14
Speaker 17: law and make that as a, As an exception, but
2:17:18
Speaker 17: as a young, fairly naive adult, an attorney, it was
2:17:24
Speaker 17: a really hard thing for me to understand and grasp
2:17:27
Speaker 17: at the time.
2:17:28
Speaker 20: Wow.
2:17:28
Speaker 17: And again, I understand more of it today, but yeah,
2:17:31
Speaker 17: I was really surprised when I saw that they revoked
2:17:34
Speaker 17: the prior policy of sanctuaries at hospitals and churches and
2:17:38
Speaker 17: things like that.
2:17:38
Speaker 3: And I didn't know this. I mean, I want to
2:17:41
Speaker 3: make sure that I heard you correctly. You're saying, so
2:17:42
Speaker 3: let's say if I was here illegally, right? at, let's say, 25,
2:17:47
Speaker 3: 26 years old. And they deported me at 25, 26
2:17:48
Speaker 3: years old. grown-ass man, I knew I came here illegally.
2:17:51
Speaker 7: Yep.
2:17:51
Speaker 3: They deported me. And then I came back into the
2:17:54
Speaker 3: country illegally again. Once I'm deported that time, even if
2:17:57
Speaker 3: I go through the process of doing it correctly, I
2:17:59
Speaker 3: can never come back into the country.
2:18:00
Speaker 12: Yeah.
2:18:01
Speaker 7: Wow.
2:18:02
Speaker 5: And again, these women who were arrested, they had pending
2:18:04
Speaker 5: asylum claims. I mean, they had– A.
2:18:08
Speaker 3: Good reason to be here potentially.
2:18:11
Speaker 4: They had faced threats in Ecuador. So they had pending
2:18:13
Speaker 4: asylum cases. It's not like they didn't have their paperwork.
2:18:16
Speaker 4: It's just– And then the process is slow.
2:18:19
Speaker 3: Very slow. Very slow. I can imagine now even more so, right?
2:18:22
Speaker 3: Because the system has been overloaded. Well, so I don't know.
2:18:27
Speaker 17: I've got some friends of mine who do immigration work,
2:18:29
Speaker 17: and from what I tell– it's always slow.
2:18:33
Speaker 3: Yeah.
2:18:33
Speaker 17: Is it the nature of the beast? I think it's
2:18:35
Speaker 17: the nature of the beast. And so, but it just seems,
2:18:40
Speaker 17: you know, we are more aware of how slow it
2:18:43
Speaker 17: is because of social media, because people are able to
2:18:45
Speaker 17: kind of speak out and, and have their voices heard.
2:18:48
Speaker 17: But man, it's a really rough system. So I feel,
2:18:51
Speaker 17: I feel for this family, you know, and hopefully, hopefully somewhere, somehow,
2:18:58
Speaker 17: we can figure out a way to make this law
2:18:59
Speaker 17: work in a way that makes sense.
2:19:00
Speaker 3: And there's no negotiating it, right? I mean, there's no
2:19:03
Speaker 3: way to negotiate. There's no one to negotiate with. It
2:19:05
Speaker 3: is a black and white scenario. You are here illegally.
2:19:07
Speaker 3: It doesn't matter if you've been here for 20 years.
2:19:09
Speaker 3: It doesn't matter what you did for the community. It
2:19:11
Speaker 3: does not matter how much you contributed to the community.
2:19:13
Speaker 3: It doesn't matter if your kids are all straight A
2:19:15
Speaker 3: students and you've had a great job for years. You've
2:19:18
Speaker 3: paid your taxes. Everything's fine. You're gone. That's right.
2:19:21
Speaker 17: Yeah.
2:19:21
Speaker 5: Yeah.
2:19:22
Speaker 3: It's probably one of the very few places in the
2:19:24
Speaker 3: law where it is that black and white.
2:19:25
Speaker 1: Wow.
2:19:26
Speaker 3: Unbelievable. All right, hang loose, buddy.
2:19:29
Speaker 12: Yep.
2:19:30
Speaker 3: All right, 407-916-1041. Text us, 77031. Deb, you heard it
2:19:32
Speaker 3: here first.
2:19:32
Speaker 4: Yeah, Florida's going to stage another December bear hunt. Marion
2:19:36
Speaker 4: County is back home after an interesting encounter with some
2:19:39
Speaker 4: wildlife and a truck carrying 40,000 gallons of beer.
2:19:44
Speaker 3: Okay, what did it do? Back up to my house.
2:19:46
Speaker 3: Has been stolen.
2:19:47
Speaker 1: What?
2:19:48
Speaker 3: Don't check my driveway.
2:19:49
Speaker 5: We'll talk about that next during You Heard It Here First.
2:19:53
Speaker 3: Look for the guy in overalls taking a 10-minute pee.
2:19:56
Speaker 3: All right, back in a sec with Debs News. We'll
2:19:59
Speaker 3: get the hell out of here on a Monday.
2:20:00
Speaker 8: Watch.
2:20:08
Speaker 2: It's time for a Talkback Purge on The Jim Colbert Show.
2:20:12
Speaker 3: This should be interesting. I just got off of work.
2:20:16
Speaker 3: I'm going to go sit in my garage that... Did
2:20:22
Speaker 3: not get cleaned this weekend.
2:20:24
Speaker 6: And both of my little boys.
2:20:27
Speaker 3: Under the age of 10.
2:20:28
Speaker 6: Have destroyed everything. And once everybody is settled. I'm going
2:20:34
Speaker 6: to sit in the garage. And I'm going to have
2:20:36
Speaker 6: a pre-roll. Thanks to the state of Florida. I don't
2:20:40
Speaker 6: understand what that guy was bragging about.
2:20:46
Speaker 3: If you don't want. First of all. What's up guys.
2:20:49
Speaker 3: Jim Bob crew. If you don't want.
2:20:52
Speaker 13: If you're listening, we're at home because all your devices
2:20:54
Speaker 13: are listening.
2:20:56
Speaker 3: Maybe some advice.
2:20:57
Speaker 13: Just be as disgusting as possible when your Alexas are
2:21:01
Speaker 13: on or whatever. Just be as gross as possible. So
2:21:05
Speaker 13: whoever's listening doesn't want to freaking listen anymore, man.
2:21:10
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah.
2:21:11
Speaker 13: Just a thought.
2:21:13
Speaker 15: Unless one of those cameras can get my fingerprints, they're
2:21:17
Speaker 15: never going to be able to identify who I am.
2:21:21
Speaker 3: Nobody calls me by my real name except for Deb.
2:21:25
Speaker 3: I'm always wearing sunglasses because they're a prescription. And even
2:21:30
Speaker 3: my phone that I'm holding in my hand isn't assigned
2:21:34
Speaker 3: to me. It's a work phone. It's assigned to somebody else.
2:21:38
Speaker 12: So, there you go.
2:21:40
Speaker 3: Good luck checking my face. Hey, JCS crew. Michael P.
2:21:46
Speaker 21: Checking back in with you. I just wanted to let
2:21:49
Speaker 21: you know, great show today, as always. And I just
2:21:53
Speaker 21: talked to a friend of mine, a very close and
2:21:56
Speaker 21: dear friend of mine, Miss B. And we were chatting
2:22:01
Speaker 21: back and forth, and I told her I was going
2:22:04
Speaker 21: to call and.
2:22:04
Speaker 3: Leave a message. So shout out to the lovely Miss B.
2:22:07

2:22:09
Speaker 9: Bye.
2:22:10
Speaker 3: Agreed. Hey, Jim, where did you find those Apple Pie Oreos.
2:22:16
Speaker 5: I just left Publix and did not see them anywhere
2:22:19
Speaker 5: on the shelves.
2:22:20
Speaker 3: I did see the toffee ones. They're probably out because
2:22:24
Speaker 3: it's such an amazing product. Yeah, they're pretty good. You
2:22:28
Speaker 3: have to ask Angel. Angel is the Oreo plug here
2:22:31
Speaker 3: in Orlando. Yeah, yeah, yeah. He knows where all the
2:22:34
Speaker 3: good Oreos are. But I've got to tell you, you've
2:22:37
Speaker 3: got to snag one of those Apple Pie Oreos on
2:22:39

Speaker 3: I'll try one. Yeah, you have to. I want to
2:22:43
Speaker 3: watch your face when you bite into it. Yeah, it's

Speaker 3: have estate issues, divorce, anything in between. Got a skilled
2:23:06
Speaker 3: group of guys and ladies over there that can handle
2:23:08
Speaker 3: those kind of cases with no problems. That's right, we do.
2:23:11
Speaker 3: All right. Again, that's onefirmforlife.com. Deb, let's do You Heard
2:23:15
Speaker 3: It Here First.
2:23:17
Speaker 2: It's time for You Heard It Here First on the
2:23:20
Speaker 2: Jim Colbert Show.
2:23:21
Speaker 4: Florida's announcing another bear hunt, but this time without a
2:23:25
Speaker 4: loud public debate. The State Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission
2:23:28
Speaker 4: says it'll start offering permits up for bid starting a
2:23:31
Speaker 4: week from Friday. Supporters say the hunt is necessary to
2:23:35
Speaker 4: manage bear interactions with humans, but opponents include animals. Kate
2:23:39
Speaker 4: McFall with Humane World for Animals, and she said it's
2:23:41
Speaker 4: not the bears' fault that they're in the way of development.
2:23:45
Speaker 14: If we take away their habitat and we wonder why
2:23:47
Speaker 14: they're strolling through our yard, where else are they supposed
2:23:50
Speaker 14: to go?
2:23:50
Speaker 4: So again, many non-hunters are expected to apply for the
2:23:55
Speaker 4: 193 available permits in order to sabotage the hunt. Another
2:23:58
Speaker 4: 22 permits will go to large landowners with bears on
2:24:01
Speaker 4: their property. The hunt will run from December 5th through
2:24:04
Speaker 4: the 28th. A Marion County man is back home after
2:24:08
Speaker 4: he was bitten by a shark in the Florida Keys.
2:24:10
Speaker 5: Bet you thought it was going to be New Smyrna, right?
2:24:15
Speaker 4: David Daniel of Silver Springs was released from the hospital
2:24:18
Speaker 4: Saturday after he was bitten on the leg over a
2:24:20
Speaker 4: week ago. Imagine this. He says he remembers seeing the
2:24:24
Speaker 4: shark approaching... And then seeing blood everywhere.
2:24:28
Speaker 3: Oh, wow.
2:24:30
Speaker 5: I would have had so much doo-doo in the water.
2:24:32
Speaker 3: I was going to say that shark is going to
2:24:35
Speaker 3: have to swim through a mighty puddle. He was in
2:24:38
Speaker 3: the boat.
2:24:38
Speaker 11: He hopped out on the sandbar and the shark was
2:24:41
Speaker 11: like coming right at him.
2:24:43
Speaker 3: Really?
2:24:43
Speaker 1: Yeah.
2:24:43
Speaker 3: Wow.
2:24:44
Speaker 4: Now, thankfully, he survived and doctors were able to save
2:24:47
Speaker 4: his foot. Daniel still has weeks of recovery ahead of him,
2:24:50
Speaker 4: but he realizes just how lucky he is. And then finally,
2:24:55
Speaker 4: police in Montclair. This is over in California. You're looking
2:24:58
Speaker 4: for a stolen truck and a whole lot of beer.
2:25:01
Speaker 4: The Pabst Blue Ribbon truck was loaded with an estimated
2:25:04
Speaker 4: 40,000 gallons of beer. That's equal to about 50,000 cans.
2:25:09
Speaker 4: Someone's going to have a partay.
2:25:11
Speaker 3: They haven't found it? No. Did anyone check the flock cameras?
2:25:14
Speaker 3: That's what I'm wondering. Just go wait by CVS because
2:25:17
Speaker 3: eventually people are going to come in looking for headache help.
2:25:20
Speaker 4: Pabst has addressed the theft with humorous posts on social
2:25:23
Speaker 4: media but confirmed it is working with local authorities toward
2:25:25
Speaker 4: getting the truck back. It says that once the truck returned,
2:25:29
Speaker 4: no questions asked and is offering a reward to anyone
2:25:32
Speaker 4: who can help solve the mystery. Would you solve it
2:25:35
Speaker 4: for some free Pabst Blue Ribbon?
2:25:37
Speaker 3: No, I understand.
2:25:38
Speaker 5: And you heard it here first on the Jim Colbert Show.
2:25:41
Speaker 3: All right, young lady, who do we have to thank today?
2:25:42
Speaker 5: We want to thank friendly attorney Ray Trendley.

2:25:50
Speaker 3: I'll continue. I'll let you watch me eat the Oreo. Okay,
2:25:52
Speaker 3: thank you, buddy. I appreciate it. That's still weird.
2:25:54
Speaker 5: Sounded very weird.
2:25:55
Speaker 3: Now, that's how you negotiate. Actually, very weird. It's a professional.
2:25:58
Speaker 3: I just blew him away.
2:25:59
Speaker 4: I also want to thank Emily the Movie Girl and

Speaker 3: Jack question of the day. Do you wear your seatbelt? God,
2:26:24
Speaker 3: we have such a smart audience. There's no way that
2:26:26
Speaker 3: a lot of people don't wear their seatbelt. I'm going

Speaker 3: to go 80%. 3% say yes.
2:26:31

2:26:35
Speaker 3: you do it.
2:26:35
Speaker 8: It's hard.
2:26:36
Speaker 3: Yeah, my car, it will yell at you. Yeah, but
2:26:38
Speaker 3: I mean, I'm not going to say how you can
2:26:40
Speaker 3: do it, but anyway. Well, we know there's a way
2:26:42
Speaker 3: to do it, but you have to go to more
2:26:43
Speaker 3: effort to be less safe. Yeah, why do that?
2:26:45
Speaker 7: 95%.
2:26:45
Speaker 3: Good job, everybody. Nice and safe. All right, coming up tomorrow,
